8:01 pm
i'm her region. the if you can, government denies the claim. argentine are freezes, the price is more than a $1000.00 household goods to curb soaring inflation. ah, hello. we begin to don where the doctor is committee says 2 people have been shot dead in protests against the military coup from khartoum and undermined to get out if tens of thousands of people have taken to the streets right across the country. the military use tear gas and block major roads. and there been multiple reports of gunfire. more than a 100 people have been injured. the u. s. sunday un had called on to don military not to interfere with the demonstrations taking place. at least 13 people have now been killed since the military took power on monday. well,
8:02 pm
jonas horner is deputy director for horn of africa and senior analyst for sudan to be international crisis group. he says to don security forces are fragmented, making it harder to control, which is the cause for concern for protesters. the messaging from the international community has been, you know, aggressively urging the sudanese security forces to avoid being part of any violence. i think, you know, the protestant cells will be vigorous and, and what is really concerning though is the vast array of military security actors that are on the street. there are just incredible set of security sectors that now control the streets, you know, sense that they are necessarily taking orders from a central spot. and i think that that diversity of different, those records is really the worry because many of them will take their orders from different locations. and that would lead to bounce in one part and also the
8:03 pm
prospect of different sections of the military, even turning on each other, which would precipitate a whole new level of violence. we certainly do advise them to, to keep their counsel to stay in the barracks, to avoid any of the violence that is characterized the 1st 5 days or so on this q. and certainly, any plans that characterize some of the worse here it ends revolution typically in 2019. it really did not work out well for the military when they had exercised violence in such an extreme way on june 3 of 2019 during revolution. it was that that really wasn't inflection point and turned international opinion heavily against the military and led to the transitional power sharing agreement. ok, so that wasn't our 1st from the international crisis group that's across over to hard to and take a report. i have been morgan, she's joining us from there, and i know you've been out and about on the streets of cartoon as thousands of protesters call for the end of the military rule. just tell us what you saw today
8:04 pm
and what the protesters are. indeed, asking for all processes have been mobilizing for days the by the internet shut down and the poor phone communications, which are sometimes on sometimes of the process of who we spoke to say that they want to 1st of all, guarantee bad 5 minutes on the handbook is completely free. they say that despite the fact that has been taken from home to his residence back to north, they still haven't seen him. they still haven't heard from him. so they want to ensure that he's completely free and can move around at his own. well, they're also concerned about the political prisoners have been arrested a member of the sovereignty council, which was the highest body during the transition period, has been arrested, along with other executive cabinet ministers. so they're all concerned about their whereabout, especially because nobody has seen or heard from them since they've been arrested, including family members. but the other thing that we've been hearing from protest says, is how to deal with this partnership. should the military decide that they want to restore the partnership between the force of freedom into collision and the army?
8:05 pm
they say that 1st of all, it's time to handle the power to civilian rule. as opposed to have a govern as, as opposed to having a government headed by the ministry. so they want to see should that partners should be brought back between before the freedom and change coalition and the military. they want to ensure that the civilian have the upper hand, that the military continue to play the role of other military, basically keeping the nation safe and stable, but not interfering in political affairs of the country. so lots of demand from the protest says on how they want to see the, the transition period shape going forward. but we've also heard from general hahn over the past few days on how he thinks the transition period should go. he said that he's going to appoint a government of civilians who are set up crest not affiliated, not affiliated to any political party. and that they will be the one leading the transitional government under supervision from a transitional military council, which will be made up of members from all $800.00 states of per dan. that is something protest say they're not buying,
8:06 pm
they say they want to ensure that the transitional cabinet that was elected by before the freedom and change be restored and but the military have less role in becoming days. should that government come back? so what's your think about that? it seems to be some sort of stalemate right now. yes indeed. and that's why they've been political efforts to try to mediate between the 2 sides. between when i say 2 sides, you've got the street on one side which represented by the political parties. and they were the ones who are presenting the street in the protest when the power sharing agreement was signed. and then you have the army on the other side. now general them for the album han has said that he wants prime minister out the lamb does to be part of his capital. but he also said that prime minister has expressed reservations about joining that transitional cabinet, that $400.00 wants to form the clear if he will actually be part of that. and then there's the issue of the, the other countries, other countries have been saying that it's very, it's impossible to exclude the military from the transitional period. and from the
8:07 pm
equation and protest of the thing that they do not want to exclude the military. they want them to have a different role as opposed to actually governing the citizens. so we've seen political efforts happening over the past few days. members, ambassadors and diplomatic or here incident have met with prime minister, haven't built the head of the un mission here, has met with prime minister the lamb dog, as well as the, as well as the head of the sovereignty of the, of the military of the army general of them for the hon. all to try to find ways and mediate and bring together all sides because the f f, the also has a vision. so there's an attempt to try to bring together all science to the negotiating table so that they can have some kind of passing point and try to get this country out of the current crisis and have this done, central doctor's committee, as you're very well aware, was earlier reporting that to protest or is were killed in undermine and we are now just getting reports as well from the same committee that a 3rd person may have been killed. will work to confirm that that number. but let
8:08 pm
me ask you about the 2 professors who were killed. what were the circumstances that led to their deaths while processes were gathering and i'm through them. and one of the locations that was set out for processes together because the military has closed the bridges that need to the center of her to now tens of thousands of protesters gathered, undermine just like they've gathered in her assume and her to me north. the one, the one with the 1st to report the use of live ammunition and tear gas again, processes now many have been taken to the hospital. the central committee puts it in his doctor's now report that 3 have been killed, but they're also reporting that more than a 100 have been injured due to various reasons. some of them have also been injured outside harpoon where they're also protest ongoing. now they say that some of those who are injured are a result of gunshot wounds. and so they say that there has been use of force. but there's also a statement that came from the police burying saying that while they were there, while they were there to protect the facilities and national institutions and
8:09 pm
federal institutions, they did not fire live ammunition. so there are questions about who fire those live and munitions. the military has been blocking main roads in other parts of the capital and there's also, they've also blocked the major bridges. so they've got, there are questions about who exactly you live ammunition on processes with the police denying it now process. so that have been using the military and the rapid support for says that's the paramilitary forces that are hearing to them and. and if it had was the deputy of the 70 council, we haven't heard from the head of the rapid support for the since the beginning of the call. but processes are reporting that his forces are on the ground and that they are firing processes in mind. and other parts of the capital hospital and hipaa, when you say they're on the ground, how heavy is the military deployment right now on the grounds and how heavy is the security presence? let's put it this way. on a normal day,
8:10 pm
you would be able to see cars moving around the capitol, hard to especially the city center today. they were hardly any cars, most of it, most of the people have been prevented from coming in the airport road, which is usually a very busy road, has been blocked by the military. that was one of the main route for the protest together. then you have the army, the road leading to the army headquarters that has been barricaded for over a week. and then you have the breaches that connect the 3 sisters in the capital. they have also been blocked by the military. now we've seen processes able to push back against the military and across one of the bridges and make their way into how soon from east denial, which is the eastern part of her team to come into her room and join the protest there. but they were met with peer gas and live amunition. and there's a report from the central committee to some of the needs doctors. but there are some people who were injured as a result of them pushing back against the military. so having military presence around the capital, on the bridges and on major roads, all trying to prevent credit processes from approaching the capital when they tried
8:11 pm
to protect the men institute institutions here, which are the presidential palace, the prime minister office. but more importantly, the army headquarters where a fit was held in 2019, which prompted the army to eventually, our former president would have issues with their trying to do is make sure that processes don't get to the heart of the capital where they can stage a similar thing right now on our screens. we are playing pictures from undermine as well as cartoon showing the protests that are out on the streets. and i know that you were mentioning a moment ago that the internet and phone lines have been somewhat patchy throughout the day. but i wonder if you can give us a sense of what you're hearing about outside of cartoon outside of the capital. how mobilized or people in other areas of the country while we've heard from activist indiana bad guys and live in municipal or fight at processes, forcing them to disperse from their protests. but we've also seen footage coming from a body that's in the east of them. and the central committee was that it needs doctors
8:12 pm
have reported that they are injuries in god in the 8th of them. so they are processed not just in capital, but other parts of sudan processes, again, has been demanding that they want a return to a civilian lead transitional government. they want to see prime minister and build release. they want to see the other political prisoners being brought back out of the tension. and this is all very and again, as he said without the mobilization of internet, there's very, very patch, internet connection only available to for vital institutions such as the government institutions and the airport and embassies, as well as with health. so many of them don't have that kind of axes and they are relying on the little that they can get to try to spread awareness. but again, this is the battle between the processes on the streets and the military were who are trying to maintain control of this transitional government that they took over on monday. and so far, processes say that they're being very determined to continue with their battle. there has been called by the resistance committees. those are the committees that have been mobilizing protesters despite the internet shut down. and they,
8:13 pm
they've called on those who are on the street right now, not just in the capital hot soon, but other parts of, of the country to now retreat from the main road. because of the attack by security forces and barricade neighborhoods, set up road blocks to prevent the security forces from entering neighborhoods while they tried to plan the step ahead. okay, but thank you so much. we'll let you go for now. thank you so much for that coverage from hard to me and you're looking at the, the latest pictures we're getting out of the country where you can see per tester is out in, undermine in the capital cartoon. they're calling for an end to the military rule. and what we've heard throughout the course of the past couple of hours or so is that 2 people have been confirmed dead. they were shot dead by the military. and just in the few pos minutes, we also heard unconfirmed reports from the sudan doctor's committee that a 3rd person has been shot. we'll move on to other news now and tell you about what's going on at the g 20 because us and european
8:14 pm
members of the 2015 run nuclear deal have expressed grave growing concern over actions taken by to run. so president joe biden met with the leaders of france, germany on the u. k. on the sidelines of this year is g. 20 summit in rome. they've issued a joint statement urgent. iran president, avoid a dangerous escalation. and they also said to runs ongoing nuclear development or compromising a possible return to the deal or white house correspondent kennedy hawk is joining us from room. so what are we to read into that statements? kimberly well, it comes at a pivotal time given the fact that iran is signals is willing to go back to vienna next month. the end of next month for negotiations talks. a to discuss returning to the j. c. p a, a. that's the 2015 agreement to limit iran's nuclear program. now it's important to know that the united states is also not a part of the j. c. p. o. at the moment,
8:15 pm
given the fact that joe biden newest president predecessor, hold the united states out. so what we've got from this read out is not only the leaders are known as the d 3 plus one. that would be germany, the u. k. france and the united states hailing the fact that the united states is willing to return to this. but also that there is a need to really return to a negotiated solution. given the fact that iran has continued to enrich uranium to near weapons grade levels. now, we should also point out this read up mentions the russian federation of china, saying that these leaders will pledge to work with those 2 nations in order to live in iran's nuclear program. but important to note now this, that the russian leader was not here at the g 20 and neither was china's leader. in fact, they appeared virtually and they also were not present in this sideline meeting on iran. so that certainly does present some complications and challenges. yeah, sounds like it. and kimberly g. 20 of course not over yet,
8:16 pm
but what sort of early indications are we getting on the issue of climate change and whether any progress will be made on the issue amongst the leaders? yeah, there seems to be some encouraging signs. the initial or draft communicate says that in fact, these leaders here have committed to urgent steps to limit global warming by 1.5 degrees celsius. this according to the un secretary general, would certainly mitigate the problem, but not solve the problem. so that is certainly setting the table if you will, for that you and climate summit that will take place in glasgow on the heels of this g 20 meeting. so that is significant. another big headline that the lears have signed on to here. $140.00 countries now committing to implementing a global minimum corporate tax. what this means is that corporations that had been avoiding tax by leaving other countries and putting their wealth offshore may have
8:17 pm
more difficult time doing that now. but we subject to a 15 percent tax in these $140.00 countries. and what it will do is encourage the wealth to return. 2 to these nations increase taxation and hopefully these leaders believe lift up the middle of working class that have really seen less and less of this global wealth. that very quickly, one more headline we're getting in just the last half hour. is that the u. s. president joe biden is set to meet with the turkish leader recham tie of air to wine. sunday morning. now initially we had thought that they would not be meeting here at the g. 20 instead would be meeting in glasgow a cop $26.00. now we are hearing from a senior administration official from the white house by an administration. they will be meeting sunday morning to talk about the future of turkey's involvement in the f 35 fighter jet program program. they were kicked out of back in 2019 following turkeys decision to purchase a surface to air missile defense system from russia. all right,
8:18 pm
and i know you'll keep across that for us. thank you so much. kimberly, how could reporting from room still had on al jazeera, the u. k. prime minister talked of a turbulent relationship with front of the route over fishing, right ethically ah, featuring sun showers across the middle east. hello, everyone cares or weather reports for seen those showers across the la vans, northern areas of syria, into northern iraq in just clipping western portions of iran. but largely it's a dry picture door, a high of 34 degrees. it's also dry rate across pockets on both in the south and the north karachi getting up to a height of $34.00 degrees. it's an increasingly unsettled picture. across turkey. energy from the central med has drifted toward the ease. so we're getting into
8:19 pm
these pulses of rain by drum on talia. going to see a pretty heavy pocket over the course of the weekend. central africa. nothing out of the ordinary here are storms coming and going, but particularly heavy western portion, democratic republic of congo through the congo rate into got bond around the gulf of guinea. severe drought is being predicted for western and southern areas of angola. the rain season is expected to be below average for this time, the year rain has cleared away across much of south africa, so were left in the sunshine cape town with the high of $23.00 degrees, but some showers, rolling throughs and bob ways. so hurry, we can expect it there with the high of 32 degrees. that's it. enjoy your weekend. ah, the end of the country with an abundance of results right far and walk into these

a return to civilian through the u. s. i'm european members of the 2015 iran nuclear deal have expressed great growing concern over actions by to ron. they've issued a joint statement from this year as g 20 summit urging iran to avoid a dangerous escalation. a source that aiden's international airport security says at least 4 people had been killed following a blast and southern yemen. a car bomb attack of the airport exploded near a security checkpoint close to an airport hotel. the united arab emirates as the latest golf country, to recall its lebanese ambassador to wait saudi arabia, amber hurry, and have done the same with re ard, also barring imports of lebanese goods. the dispute comes after lebanon's information minister, criticize the saudi lead coalitions war in yemen. in a video circulating online towards credit, he made those comments before he was appointed minister lebanon's prime minister. as you'd, mccarty says he's keen to establish the best relations with saudi arabia. the arab

manufacturing hub in the heart of the region, which was money investment from many, many countries including china, turkey, which is building railway, worth $1700000000.00. the u. k. prime minister says he can't rule out taking legal action against france as a post bricks at fishing. diplomatic dispute continues. the risk got worse earlier this week when from sees the british boat. paris is threatening to block ports and increase checks on boats on laurie's. if the u. k doesn't ground more licenses to french fishermen, the british government says that we'll put the e u in breach of a trade agreement. alexi o'brian has more from the front side and of frances laid down an ultimatum. if it's fishermen do not get the licenses that they say they deserve, and that they expected under the post bricks at tre, dale by tuesday,
8:24 pm
then ports like this one will be at the center is what they call in targeted measures. british fishing vessels will not be able to dock at ports like this, they'll be tough, a longer health and safety checks on trucks going in and out of port from the u. k . also, versus fishing vessels will face toughest security checks if they are fishing, infringe waters, boats like this. once this scholar trula that was seized earlier in the week, accused of fishing and french waters without a license. and it's been caught up in this escalating dispute between france and the u. k. over access to british waters waters off the coast of france, including the island of jersey, which fits just about 22 kilometers off the coast. now the french president m l mccomb has said that this route is actually a test of the case global credibility. he's told a newspaper that you can spend years negotiating this trade deal. and then within a matter of bumps decide which, but you want to stick to, depending on which bits suit you best. he says that is not an example of good
8:25 pm
character. the french prime minister john caustics, has reportedly written to the european commission asking for its support and saying that it must demonstrate that there is more damage by leaving the european union than by staying within the block. but there are also concerns here. france and ports like this in french fishing communities, up and down the coast. that if the measures do go ahead on tuesday as france is threatening, actually it will be the ports. it will be the fishing communities and consumers who end up paying the price of running and is in london with the latest reaction out of the u. k. the route over the fishing rights dispute has at least fallen off the front pages of. busy the case major newspapers on saturday, but the exasperation over how this disputes has been allowed to fester an escalator over the past 4 days remains bars. johnson is in is in room for the g 20 and
8:26 pm
he's been speaking with the president of the european commission, actually on the land reiterating what he describes. his puzzlement that he has got this far. he told us live on the land that he raises, concerns about the rhetoric of the french side. he told her that the threats by the french were completely unjustified. that is the threat to prevent british catches from being landed in french port. and he told reporters before he met miss witnesses on the land that basically britain would do whatever is necessary to protect you k interest. but at least that wasn't an escalation of the kind of rhetoric that we've seen earlier in the week where one of his ministers was saying to comply at that game, threatening a further ramping up of tensions with, with france over this fishing dispute. and i think they route to de escalation and all of this will be to dial down the verbal rhetoric and the posturing and perhaps go back to nuts and bolts and facts and figures. because that seems to be where the
8:27 pm
disagreements actually lie, written in the re draft of the bundle and encounter between bars, johnson and the land. as you said, the 98 percent of license applications by e, you vessels had been approved and only 2 percent not. but that doesn't actually tally with some other statistics that are around which say the jersey is approved just 16. i have $47.00 application. so if the 2 sides can actually work out what is fact in the sense of statistics and what is not, then there might be a little bit closer to try to work out where compromises might be found before tuesday deadline. argentina is due to make a payment on it's $45000000000.00 debt to the international monetary. and many argentines want to see a freeze on repayments. as the country suffers a rise in hunger poverty and rampant inflation. daniels crime reports from one a series. they q every weekday, outside the little star soup kitchen on the outskirts of when osiris only to day
8:28 pm
were married and her neighbours arrived there was nothing left with them in their casino. authentic vedo are many on which they were supposed to have cooked plenty, but a lot of people turned up and we were a bit late. but they gave us some packets of food which will cook at home. but it's probably all the eat until the soup kitchen reopens, serving 70 families with food given mostly, but the local authorities, supervisor, marianna, blames inflation for the increase in hunger or the nutritional value of what they serve diminishes. yeah, yep. okay. well, the last element, every day you go to the market and you'll find the price today is not the same as the price yesterday. it's very common. prices rose 3.5 percent in september. more than 50 percent over the past 12 months. isn't a good m, okay. low pressure. what we'd like is that people can buy what they need to know. they'll be able to eat nothing more. just the basics, the things i need to live
8:29 pm
a normal life. oh yeah. not a much over 40 percent of argentines. live in poverty, we're more than half of children under 14 years old. don't have enough to eat this for many as the last resort. the offer of a bowl of rice which will lock will contain something you tricia's to get them through the day. because inevitably, the fight just to keep going will continue to morrow. the government last week for the prices of 1400 essential items in the battle to control inflation. it is blighted argentina for generations. some, some people saves a race between her wage and prices and other income cy pensions ah, and in the meantime, you get somehow are exposed to loss is burgess and power that then you can try to recover and even anticipate ah,
8:30 pm
for union. so regular protest calling for fair a wage is to keep pace with inflation. they say that should take priority over re paying argentina's debt to the international monetary fund. adjustable. it's a scam and paying that debt is incompatible with ending poverty and destitution. oh jan. tina's historically volatile economy was hit hard by the covey 19 pandemic . it's emerging from that catastrophe, only to have to deal with 2 of its traditional enemies. a massive debt burden and rampant inflation. dang schwein law out a 01 osiris. ah .
