1000000 would be currently going to the in when you who just getting a little bit of information from the election commission in ban jewel. of course this on a very significant election that's taken place in gambia, where people voting for the 1st time since the talk receive, the former president jojo, john, may and did. and so the indications are from the preliminary results that the incumbent adama barrow is very much in the lead. but there is, there are of course opposition candidates that have been running against him and they have already voice their intention to mount a legal challenge against these are the results of they've rejected the ali results . nonetheless, we expect confirmation on how the election has gone very shortly, and we'll be speaking to our correspondent. i'm an address has been reporting on this story from a banjo throughout the day. but to our other headline as our is in me and my

reports of at least 5 people being killed, many others injured in the country. when security forces around a vehicle into a crowd of protest is now videos posted on social media, show a car accelerating into people who'd been attending a rally in the country's largest city. young gone, so called flash mob was targeted just minutes after it began. about 15 people were then arrested, have been anti government demonstrations across me and more since the military coup in february, despite the crack down on descent. ah, 4 hours later people in worse than young on express their anger of the military's crack down by he big beating on pots and pans from the balconies that have been anti government demonstrations across me and mom since that military coup in february out there is tony chang is falling development from bangkok. well, the supposed to been

a very swift reaction to the flash mob that head the streets about mid morning in came in dung. districts are which is in central yank on just a few streets away from the iconic troy. the gone for go to the crowd, had just assembled. and if you can see in videos posted on social media, a and armored track appears to move in very quickly from behind at speed powering straightened to them. 5 reported to have died. dozens more injured or bodies lying on the street. you can see in the aftermath it does appear to fitz or so, the pattern that we've seen emerging a protest as who still wants to maintain their presence on the streets. and there are visible objections to the queue that happened back in february, but very aware that the security services are going to crack down harshly with very little thought for the preservation of life. so that they're doing this very quickly in, in younger and other big cities across myanmar. but clearly in this instance, the security services were on the scene reacted very quickly and again,

with very little thought for life. and i think it's just an illustration of how much these people are taking their lives into their hands, even protesting for just a few minutes as clearly cost in their lives on this occasion. why didn't we can return to the story in gambia. now i'm at address is emmanuel forest and we were hearing from the election commission. do we have confirmation of the result in this election with a damo borrow, having a clear lead over his competitors according to luminary result. while mary, i'm not sure exactly what's happening now the last 3 constituents as being announced. in fact, they are on the last one now, which of course could give either me about clear monday for 2nd time. that's exactly what's happening right now. but long before they finance me and he's support this out on the streets, celebrating you relating it was tempered

a little while by the fact that the final announcements have not been made by the independent electric commission. and so the supporters took a break and now things are hitting up in bundle as the celebrations continue and in expectation, not to suppression on the final results be and i was right now. now, apart from that, prior to these announcement, we've seen a meeting between the top political opponents of the president who contrasted the elections. i guess mister battle holding a meeting, rejecting the results of the election. what was once some of the reasons i cited of course was being oriented in coats in order to delays in finances this resolved, the problem was, let's say the results will be announced in 24 hours that we talking about 28 hours before the final results are being announced, so they said they have rejected this result because it's been delayed and some

other factors they had raised in their communicate saying that they won't accept the results and they will not. they will challenge this results, which means of course, they have the time to file an appeal with the courts within a month before about responding to office as the president of the gambia, maria. and we were just mentioning for president john may now his 22 years in power in the country was mobbed by allegations of violence, torture extrajudicial killings. but having said that, there are also fears now about the human rights record of his success. adama borrows. so what will the reaction be in the country if this result is confirmed? well, basically the support of mr. bottle was on a break. we'll continue to celebrate. of course, the protest celebrations already. but we've been opposition. it's gloomy phase.

they are not happy with what's happening and coming from the top leaders that the rejects, that they have rejected the result of this election. i think we are set for some few dramas in the cords on the streets of gambia, as well as probably in public spaces why this could go on for a while. remember, prior to the announcement prior to the election, we've seen can be issues coming up, of course, during the rallies, as well as during the elections and after months we expect to see if same continue . there are some divisions within the can be in society based on the rhetoric during the political campaigning particular. and we expect to see this continued for a while while the situation is still hot. while the political space is heated up, especially with a statement from the opposition leaders and they have rejected the results of the election being an independent commission of again, thank you very much reporting just from banjo. i'm address. thank you. and i was

telling you earlier about some very disturbing footage that emerged from me and mar, of the military, essentially robbing the vehicle into a group of protest is. and of course the background to this is the military top democratically elected government in february. and since then, scares the forces of killed more than 1300 people, while filling jails with political opponents, medical workers, and journalists, and in one particularly gruesome incident, at least 65 protest. as an innocent bystanders was shot to death during a single protest in yan gone, b u and body investigating the army conduct, says the widespread and systematic attacks on civilians, amounts to crimes against humanity or pull dano, it's his credible witnesses, me and my campaign leader and joins us live from washington, d. c, by skype and at today we had this troubling footage of

a military vehicle applying into a group of protests as what further information have you received about the treatment of that people at the hands of the military today. right, well we heard reports that there were 3 sporadic or pop up protests in yet gone this morning and we obviously saw the horrific footage and the media reports and other reports that we've gotten indicate that 5 people have been confirmed, killed in that attack up to 15, arrested, and many more seriously injured. i'm so very concerned about the safety and well being of those who are currently under the military's attention and of course, condemned the abuses committed by the military. this morning. it's really abominable and the world needs to needs to take action immediately to prevent further harm's at a, you anticipating that there are likely to be farther demonstrations or perhaps an upside in protest. given that the,

the one that we saw today comes of for several vide dixie due to behind it down to unsung said she. yeah, i think it's likely that there will be more if as expected to morrow, there are verdicts handed down. the 1st charge is expected that the decision on the 1st charge and incitement charge is expected to come down tomorrow and in total in total, there are 12 charges against and clung tuchi if convicted the sentencing total is about 120 years. so we do expect that if, as expected, that she is convicted, that there will be more protests and we're very concerned about the military responsiveness protests over a 1000 people have been killed since it couldn't february. we're also just mentioning the, the many tens of thousands have also been jailed. but of course this, this is, this military was known for its brutal repression for decades in the country before 2011. when the political transition started. a you surprise that people still have

the courage and determination to voice their own position in this way. i'm not surprised. i lived in burma for, for a number of years hood and the people of birmingham are very brave and courageous. and i are, i think the essence is that they don't feel like there is a future under the military. and i think it bears reading the banner that was being held by the protestors this morning before they were run over. it said the only real prison is fear in the real freedom is freedom from fear. i think the people of nym are feel that there is no future under a military dictatorship. and so they're willing to, to sacrifice themselves. there are calling me on to try to resist the military and return the to a civilian a government, or when you speak about the need for that to be a stronger international reaction. it said it is very difficult, isn't it? because there have been these statements of condemnation concerns about reported human rights violations,

including sexual violence and torture. and then these limited sanctions by the u. s . and the e u. but really, it's about countries like india and particularly shine china, that is, is shielding me and my well, clearly diplomatically at the united nations, china and russia are shielding myanmar on particularly on a, an arms embargo. there's been a, a strong push for the united nations security council to pass a, an arms embargo which would play a key role in limiting, limiting the military's ability to access and secure the weapons that they need to commit human rights abuses and oppressor on people. but beyond china and russia, there are other countries that are also playing a key role. for example, thailand has been resisting efforts to target into a sanction, the military's access to their $1000000000.00 gas revenue. so it's not just russian in china, although they're key players. it's thailand and it's other countries who are not cooperating with the international efforts that are being led by the national unity

government. the representative body of the people of myanmar who are calling for international sanctions or calling for the charting the targeting of particularly these billions of dollars and gas revenues that the, the military currently has accessing control over. so russia and china, but also thailand in particular. thank you very much, paul donna, let's fair joining us there at from washington. thank you. watching the news, our life from london still had on the program be looking at the death of u. s. senate giant. we look back at a life of war, veteran time presidential candidate ob, don't ah, protests against over 19 restrictions turned violent in belgium and support russia . when's the davis cup for the 1st time in 15 years pharaoh will have more on that story. ah,

now at least 14 people have been confirmed dead on the indonesian island of java after a volcano or option hot choking smoke is hampered. some evacuation efforts, though, worries, heavy rain is going to make it even more difficult. now, 1300 people have been taken to safety, but there are many questions as to why they were not warned about the oncoming emergency. julian wolf reports. ah, assessing the damage from above after mouth to move spewed, piles of ash, 12000 meters into the sky. down below, entire homes have been submerged villages blanketed with falling ash. the creeping lava is destroying everything in its path. samira is one of indonesia, nearly a $130.00 active volcanoes. get bash altura and is the highest peak on the nation's most densely populated island of java. is sudden eruption was triggered by days of

heavy rain. i got back with you was scared in running a panic because digger option was much bigger interruption dental through last year . smouldering debris, 6 smoke and power outages have hampered search and rescue operations. evacuation efforts have been suspended for now with the cloud surrounding the effected area, remaining too hot to handle. people who managed to escape have been staying at this evacuation center. the people behind me evacuated local villages at the moment. they need assistance like daily necessity, food and drinks. we also don't know how long they need to stay careful. the. those who want to return home have been told they can't. and to stay far away from the craters now, the volcano have seen an increase in activity in recent days, but it's alert status was not raised now. many here want to know why they weren't

warned. why? del, quite by to bryce. what went wrong? if somebody still being on the job or our way of communicating, they get it is not sophie, hear an answer. many will be speaking as they pick up the pieces of what is left behind, gillian wolf, al jazeera. elsewhere, more homes are under threat on the spanish island. palm aware volcano has been, are opting for the past 11 weeks. a new lava stream is affecting parts. the evacuated zone. so far it had escaped damage though. over 2 and a half 1000 buildings have been destroyed elsewhere, official say its cause almost $962000000.00 worth of damage. and of course, we've been covering political development in gambia today where people have been voting in an election. i'm an interest has been reporting on this from the capital bon jewel and joined us live. now,

what for the further information do we have from the election commission? but it's official. i guess aud, mr. bottle has been re elected in what looks like on line slide. this code more than 457000 votes, and his opponents got in fact, 238000 votes. not was the result declared by the chairman of the independent electoral commission of the can be a just a short while ago. now mr. out of support is can celebrate. however, like we said earlier on opposition, meters have rejected the outcome of this election. fighting in order to encode in old and delays in making the announcement they want your system that the election results should have come within 24 hours and they're coming out late. so they believe that something was wrong and they are going to challenge this in court. so they have 30 days now to do that. and of course,

we also hearing from election of several of them who said that the election process was free and prayer, although the opposition meet us saying that they reject this particular outcome. they did not advise specific reasons that could put to test exactly what they mean about rejecting this particular vote. so that's the situation now. mr. battle has been officially declared that we know this election and he is good for a 2nd term. i don't know this doesn't represent the fact that he broke a previous election pledge to only stay in power for 3 years. is transitional lead to all the concerns of the country about his tightening, grip on power. that is a contentious issue. the opposition, especially the coalition that brought most about or to power defeating german 2016

and placing it in the sit out in 2017. it's listed that there was a gentlemen's agreement for him to serve a transitional government for 3 years. that mister borrows insisted was wrong. the monday given to him by can be as was for 5 years or not for the 30 years. he may have appointed there. but of course if there is an agreement, there is an agreement. so the situation is still that it's still a big problem for the opposition, and that's why you've seen at least 5 opposition candidates, including 2 of the architects of that coalition, standing against bottle in the elections. it was heated, and in the end, this is the outcome of the election. i understand that at least one of the candidates in fact, have congratulated mr battles about over his victory. so what remains now to be seen is how the next 30 days was. we'll find out in the court of law in the can be when the position is expected to put that case before. and just so as to say,

so as to overturn this election. but for now, the opposition, the ruling party supporters celebrating across various parts of the gambia. my dear, thank you very much and i am going to just reporting to her from bon jewel. now, indian officials sang 13 civilians were killed by mistake during a military operation. your army is reported to shorter a trunk, carrying dozens of villages in the northeastern state of not go on, believing them to be insurgents. troops lay to fight a crowd, but protested against that attack. a soldier was also killed. authorities in the remote state of special powers to arrest, shoot and kill without warrants now the u. s. u and 20 other countries including the u. k. japan and australia say they are deeply concerned by reports of former afghan soldiers and policemen been killed and disappeared. it follows accusations by human rights watch and others, including include $47.00,

former members of the afghan national security forces. in a joint statement released by the us state department. they said the alleged actions constitute serious human rights abuses and contradict the taliban announced amnesty a r calling on the taliban to enforce the promised amnesty for former members of the afghan security forces and form of government officials and they war nell, measure the taliban by its actions ra mcbride has more from cobble all stems from the human rights report that came out last week. detailing the a cases of more than a 100 members of the or for the security of forces of the previous administration. that since the takeover by the taliban have either been killed, it says or have simply disappeared. now it says says that these words were carried out over a period of weeks that sometimes the taliban would have been using employment records to track down these former members. or in some cases it says,

actually trick them into coming forward to claiming amnesty only to identify themselves, give themselves away, and then to be targeted. now, these are allegations are not particularly new. we have had a number of allegations of human rights abuses of potentially war crimes by the taliban, especially in the run up to it's take over during the take over itself, often backed up by what would appear to be documentary evidence from social media and so on. but these are allegations refer a strictly to add these are crimes are alleged crimes had happened since the takeover and also that they were conducted by the taliban itself. now that is particularly damaging because it says that while local commanders carried out on many cases, these crimes, it had the knowledge and was condoned by the taliban itself of the taliban. they have denied that these allegations. they said they will look into individual cases, but they have had deniability because of course the taliban is not a single structure with a well disciplined hierarchy. while at leadership is here,

many of the taliban groups and provinces do work with a certain amount of autonomy and it does have that deniability. well. this report says that the leadership knew about it and condoned these apparent crimes. heroine jaime is assistant professor of lauren in there. can university in afghanistan, journeys me my escape from the line in italy. it's one thing for the taliban to declare this. amnesty, why is it not being enforced? there are 2 different factors, a plane in all likelihood. one is that 1 may perceive the individual tread and would like to eliminate them, especially given to report that some of the soldiers may be willing to join the dies or so that could be at trip perception. the under likely

dinardo explanation is that there are maybe different levels, soldier local commanders or even a leadership who are taking revenge on many actors who have been fighting for a very long time. so both trends, perception and revenge are likely behind these. these are, that is very interesting because tell them i don't want to be seen to be giving into any sort of international pressure. but at the same time they have sort of conceded that they've been facing instability within their own ranks. how are they? how are they likely to manage that at a time when they're trying to maintain cohesion? that is actually precisely the nurse that are actually advocating for it is a delicate balance. on the one hand, they have formed committees past with coding code purging their horses from

criminal elements. and often the, although they don't admit to particular cases off on their fibers taking revenge, they make general comment that they need to do more in terms of purging their fighters. at the same time, they claim that they have no internal problems with cohesion. is a useful and useful explanation because it tells the international community that the pressure would not be helpful, given that external pressure is going to weaken, ability to maintain internal cohesion. so the problem is how much on leadership can do and whether they are doing all they had to rein in their forces or not. there is some truth to this statement that they are kind of strained in terms of what

they do. they have acted as a centralized network and figuring their orsus into vertical r e is not a challenge. but at the same time, it is true that some of these actions are taking place with all of us leadership ability for various reasons. and me, important question is, what can leadership can do and whether they are doing a meeting they had, i think there are concerns as to what they are doing. they had no major example of holding their fight. the constable even for instances were become public . that the public pressure around it. so it is based hard to precisely frame the issue because if you understand the issue of somebody, actors who are.
