a double suicide bombing in the ugandan capital come parlor one explosion, 2 placed near checkpoints at the central police station. on the 2nd, near the parliament building 3 attackers also died in the blast, katherine sawyer reports. this is the moment the 1st bomb exploded in kampala at a check point at the central police station. exactly 3 minutes later, a 2nd went off, yet the parliament building 3 suicide bombers were involved. they were killed along with 3 other people. dozens were injured. this footage was released by the police who said a 4th man was arrested and a suicide jack had found at his home. that unfortunate. it's happening as such a time that we're trying to go back to our normal livelihoods. so if this people can come at such a premises of police under unset of a boom,
8:07 am
then you know, things are not good. the aftermath shoes, how powerful the blasts were broken, windows binding vehicles and terrified people police. the attacks were carried out by a gang walking alongside the allied democratic forces. the armed group has its roots in northern uganda, but is now based in the democratic republic of congo. its fighters have killed thousands of people in the east in recent years. the hallmarks of the attack clearly indicates that the if leading radicalized groups ah, will still have a desire to carry out little attacks on soft targets using suicide attackers, an improvised explosive devices behind these attacks. this attack follows to others. last month, one killed a waitress in a restaurant and a 2nd on a bass. 2 days later injured several people. i still claimed those attacks. the adf
8:08 am
has pledged it allegiance to the group, the involvement over the ugandan. annette in the peacekeeping missions in the region, especially in samaria mix uganda targets, or some of these groups. what's happening in uganda also comes at a time when the military is planning to deploy its soldiers to eastern d, r. c, to help kimberly's troops and un peacekeepers fight adf. there, they'll help congress troops and un peacekeepers to fight 80 a forces. katherine saw alta 0 p. j crowley is formerly a u. s. assistant secretary of state. he thinks the group police are blaming for the attacks. the adf is using the eye so brand to pursue its own local interest. i think the, that the current state of the extremist movement is that you rather than having
8:09 am
a central caliphate which has been defeated in iraq and syria, you now have as lama, state brand, that is acquired by local groups, so that, you know, is it adf, is it islamic state, actually it can be both, and in this instance you have a local group with a grievance towards uganda that is willing to fly the, the atlantic state flag or so i think we have to look at the islamic state as much as a brand as a movement, i think this is a perfect example of extremist groups looking for the path of least resistance. and wherever they are perhaps is, are gaps in effective governments. they're able to insinuate themselves into, into these local or regional conflicts. so you, you have a country like uganda, which is fairly effectively govern. but then you have next door,
8:10 am
a country like the, the congo, which has vast areas that are largely uncovered. and that's a, an area where, you know, these kinds of groups you know, can find a safe haven and then do the kinds of attacks that we've seen here the last couple of days. the chilean president has survived and impeachment vote to remove him from office. the senate vote fell short of the 2 thirds majority required to sebastian panera. he was accused of corruption following the leak of the so called pandora papers which exposed the hidden wealth of some world leaders and big business people. the documents linked pinero to the sale of a mining company through the family business to a close friend. kenyatta denied the charges. latin america editor, lissy, and human says there's still a chance. the president will face a legal battle president have a damping it had been accused of gravely compromising the dignity of the country
8:11 am
and of impropriety. what unlike in the lower house, the president's concern was coalition had enough votes to block conviction, which required a 2 thirds majority, one by one chillies, 43 senators, argued in favor or against the charges that the president had used his political power for his personal economic benefit in this case of family trust, the deal involved 125000000 dollar land sale for a mine and put project in what is an environmental hot spot? the deal involved guarantees that the area would not be declared a protected marine park. see, are y'all gonna pay by the here, okay. can a guess or no one can be so nice as to believe that he did not use his office to benefit him. so for one thing was reasonable as another one was stupidity up? no, i'm in that area that is one of chillies, richest men and has a history of ethically and legally questionable business dealings. yet he denies any wrong doing. and in sicily impeachment was manipulated by the opposition for
8:12 am
political gain just ahead of this sunday's national elections. the sensitive timing of this trial may have actually worked in pinion as favor. many believe that removing a president just days before a national election, or just 5 months before his due to step down could be to destabilizing. but on the streets of santiago, some didn't seem to care for christian pena hasn't been able to govern amid all the problems we've had. that's caused a lot of anger. so i for one, wouldn't miss him for the emotion on the level either. i don't care what happens to panera, i don't like politicians. we all bunch of these in this country. i don't even know if i'll vote in sundays. elections pineda is the 1st president in chilion history to have been impeached by congress. but while he may have survived this trial, that doesn't mean that congress may not decide to present different or similar charges against him once he's left office. which means that save us the on benita
