we also hearing from election of several of them who said that the election process was free. and although the position meet is 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 understand that at least one of the candidate, in fact, i've congratulated mr battle about all by 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 opposition is expected to put that case before we just saw us to see so as to overturn this election. but for now, the opposition of the ruling party supporters, sun breaking across various spots of the gambia reports at least 5 people were

had just assembled. and if you can see in videos posted on social media, a, an armored truck appears to move in very quickly from behind at speed powering straightened to them 5 reported to have died dozens more injured 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 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 costing their lives on this occasion. ah, at least 14 people have now been confirmed dead on the indonesian island of charles after volcano or option. hot choking smoke is hampered in evacuation efforts and narrow worries. heavy rain will make it more difficult. 1300 people were taking a safety, but there are questions as to why they were not warned. gillian wolf reports assessing the damage from above. after mount simmers viewed 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. and is the highest peak on the nation's most densely

populated island of java. sudden the rupture was triggered by days of heavy rain with a roof scared in running a panic because this or option was much bigger interruption that could last year. smoldering debris, 6 smoke and power outages have hampered search and rescue operations. evacuation efforts have been suspended for now with the cloud surrounding the affected 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 quite by to bryce what went wrong. if somebody still being on the job or our way of communicating, they get it is not so we can 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 of the paul. nowhere volcano has been interrupting for the past 11 weeks. a new lava stream is affecting parts the evacuated zone as well. so far that bits had escaped damage, though over 2 and a half 1000 buildings have been destroyed in other parts of the area. official say it's caused almost $962000000.00 worth of damage. indian officials are saying 13 civilians were killed by mistake during

is independence from india, for, from in, since time immemorial, since the british left india. and with years and years of suppression of the novel movement, we have now come to a point after decades of struggle. that is probably safer to integrate with india since we are we've been, we've been suppressed for a long time. however, once in a while, we have incidents like this, which is the result of apps. i don't with many people aware of it, but parts of india like the northeast where we have militancy or we have those kind of uprising and doing because you have a certain that there is a certain special act. all the asked by that is the amount of hours special forces act that has been there has been no there in the states like this for the longest time. and this gives the security forces. you know, the fool. there is no accountability they can under this act,

they can fire and they can shoot people at sight at will if there is even a speck of suspicion. so because of this, this is the result the u. s. e 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 being killed or forcibly disappeared and follows accusations by human rights watch and other organizations. it includes $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, calling on the taliban to enforce the promise amnesty for former members of the afghan security forces and former government officials. and they warn dell, measure the taliban by its actions. rob mcbride has more from kabul, all stems from the human rights report that came out last week. detailing the cases

of more than a 100 members of the full, the security 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 form members. or in some cases it said actually trick them into coming forward. declaiming amnesty, the only to identify themselves, give themselves away, and then to be targeted. now, these allocations 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 allegations refer strictly to these crimes

edge crimes that happen since the takeover and also that they were condemned 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 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 the leadership is here, many of the taliban groups in provinces do work with a certain amount of ptolemy and it does have that deniability. well. this report says that the leadership knew about it and condoned these power crimes. for me, u. s. presidential candidate bob dole has died at the age of $98.00 a world war to veteran and represented kansas. as a republican senator for 35 years, he unsuccessfully ran for the white house against bill clinton in 1996. earlier
