7:02 am
to face espionage charges. as and his partner with whom he has 2 young children, was there to hear the decision. it's been almost a year since i stood outside court with our victory as the blocking alley, extradition for the past year. and the past year, 2 years and a half joanne has remained in bell marsh prison. and in fact, he has been detained since the 7th of december 2010 in one form for another 11 years for how long can this go on? the decisions based on assurance is presented by lawyers for the u. s. government at october's appeal hearing. they said assigns wouldn't be subject to solitary confinement or held at a maximum security prison. they also said they had diplomatic assurances he could serve any prison sentence in his native australia. judges here effectively decided there was now no reason to believe assange would be a clear suicide risk, which the original ruling had found. the us wants
7:03 am
a sans to face trial over the release in 2010 of thousands of classified military documents relating to the u. s. wars in afghanistan and iraq. but amnesty international has denounced the decision saying the u. s. charges represent a serious threat to press freedom. something echoed by his supporters. ricki lake was a organization of whistleblowers. it made it absolutely sim, safe and secure for whistleblowers to her to bring the truth to the public. all he has done as tell the truth and understand donna's top right is upset their leads, but he has done his job to tell us what's going on. this decision is clearly a big setback for the campaign to free julian a science. but it's already taken years to get to this point and it could be a long time before we know definitively whether he'll be sent to the united states . the case has been sent back to the lower court, so a judge can refer the extradition to home secretary,
7:04 am
pretty patel. but julian assigned his legal team so they'll try to login appeal with the supreme court, challenging the american assurances that he won't be treated humanely. the dean barbara al jazeera london, kristen raft, and son is the editor in chief of which he links he says, there's still a chance for an appeal against the ruling. the outrageous so that the, this decision is based on the so called assurances, let's not forget that the, the u. s. lawyers had every opportunity in the hearing and the magistrate court to present such a so called assurances they did not only after the last in the magistrate court, they cooked up the insurances and presented it in the appeal process. now, we didn't, we need to understand that these assurances have been tested. they have been scrutinized by many parties, not just julia's lawyers, but organizations such as on the international and other and found that they are not worth the paper. the original. and actually in the tests of the so called assurances,
7:05 am
it says that the states retains the right to change his opinion at any given point after he is estimated. so it's no assurance at all. and basically the high court is saying that they are willing to risk commence life because it's not just julians family and support who are saying that julian, it's a suicide risk. that is the professional opinion of a psychiatrist. he testified to the court, there is an opportunity to for julia's lawyer and julian to appeal the new decision in entirety. so there we will hear the full argument of the political nature of the prosecution or persecution, i should say, the full nature of the violation. second julia and his rights in the entire process of spying on his lawyers stealing legal material, breaking into legal office and planning to kick or even assassinate julian. songs
7:06 am
or lists will be presented that in the appeal process initiated by julians lawyers . and that should, in any normal, normal circumstances change the opinion of the courts in britain. us president joe biden says he's very concerned about the supreme court decision to keep abortion cubs in texas. but biden hailed the routing that allows abortion providers to challenge the state law banning procedures off the 6 weeks. the law came into effect in september. it's america's strictest. it bars the procedure at a time when many women don't even know they're pregnant. alexander follow is a professor at emory university school of law. he explains what the supreme court ruling in the texas case means. the issues in this texas case so far are not about whether there is an abortion right there about procedural issues. they're very important procedural issues, but so far this case is about procedure. it's about who you can sue and where you
7:07 am
have to sue. that's because of the texas case. i has this somewhat unusual procedure where any person in the state consume an abortion provider, or someone related to an abortion provider. now, usually the way that you challenge a law is you violate it and you let somebody sue you, and then you defend yourself. if you want to attack a law before it's ever been applied, you have to locate the enforcer and suit the enforcer and argue that the enforcer can't execute the law. but the problem is, every body in texas, or any one in the world really is a potential enforcer of this law. so it's not clear who to sue. and now maybe you can sue in state court. and there actually has been a case going through state court where just yesterday, a state, a state, the judge ruled that some parts of this law were unconstitutional. but the question here is, can you sue in federal court?
7:08 am
and if you do, who can you sue and the u. s. supreme court said federal courts are courts of limited jurisdiction, their courts of limited power. and you can't just come into court and say, this laws unconstitutional. i have to stop it. ah, you have to identify particular enforcers to sue, and that's just very difficult in this case. and that's what the supreme court said . people in the u. s. can now send money to family members in afghanistan involving financial institutions, controlled by the taliban. and connie and that work, both groups are otherwise subject to us sanctions. the money is a lifeline for many afghans with global remittances making up 4 percent of g d. p. last year. it comes as the world bank says donors have agreed to transfer $280000000.00 to unicef from the world food program to provide nutrition and health services. in afghanistan, the un has warned nearly 9000000 afghans of facing famine this winter,
7:09 am
much more heavy is the founder of rise to piece a piece building policy organization. he's also a former us counterterrorism adviser enough. got this done. he says there's still a lot more work for the taliban to do before it's recognized by the us. there are options in terms of the us of discussing and i think from our realistic perspective we're looking into the us, his interest at the end and the actions of the tall and not the front awards. but it's a hard decision. i think kind of the pulling out of warranty on. it was a big decision to make before buying ministration the same way, recognizing the tall one. i don't think it's going to happen to us soon if it, if it did that, think it's going to take a whole international or collateral, walt a different nations and regional efforts. but the tall one has to 1st deliver and actions that do have caused pilot. and they're not going to use an honest on to attack the u. s. soils and allies. i think that is the 1st question
7:10 am
that needs to be 1st resolved in order for the us to make a decision. but we're talking about millions of africa and uncertain about the future of their country and do ask ones who are, who are able to exit, i'm honest on your little path limbo. do or just for example, we had interviewed one african family that he said, well, i was able to get out of honest on but how can i help my family at this situation? i think this general license 16 and this exact that afford a will allow that person to wire money to his family who are in launched on right now under this protection. in mexico, an investigation is on the way into the deaths of 55 migrants. as many as 200 were crammed into a trunk when it overturned in the southern states of jap us. miner apollo is following developments from mexico city. a small roadside vigil in southern

a broken arm, but at least i am fine immigration policy experts say the accident reveals a clear case of human smuggling and is directly linked to the ongoing migrant crisis. playing out on mexico's southern border international observers or calling on regional government to do more to protect the rights of migrants. the un saying more than $4400.00 have died in mexico this year teen. and if this latest incident isn't a reminder for the world and for member states to agree on a controlled and managed migration, it's unclear to see what is law enforcement from the state of chiapas, say the driver of the truck carrying the migrants fled the scene. they say an investigation into the fatal accident is underway. manuel rap, hello al jazeera mexico city cell

7:17 am
on or, or basic on 2 things. one is the capability or the ability of the agency to return to one facility, one specific facility in iran, where we need to reinstall cameras or that need to be there. and it has been difficult to tell this. so we have been talking about these and the other thing is how to address a number of issues which need to be clarified. the agency found traces of nuclear material in places that had not been declared before. you can see our full interview with i. e, a chief profile grossey on talked to al jazeera and o 430 g m t on saturday. an explosion in the lebanese port city of tire is injured about a dozen people. it happened
7:18 am
late friday evening, and the palestinian camp in southern parts of the country videos show a number of small, bright red flashes, followed by a large explosion. security forces a launching investigation with german lawmakers have overwhelmingly back to bill that requires health workers to get vaccinated against coven 19. it's the 1st of 2 vaccine mandates being considered in the country. a 2nd more contentious bill is being prepared to make coven 19 vaccines. compulsory for all adults could be debated by parliament as early as next month sat. african scientists say there's no sign. the kind of iris very and tommy crohn is causing more severe cases of coven. 19 hospital data shows admissions, arising sharply,
7:19 am
but patient suspending less time in care and deaths remain low. south africa reported more than 22000 new cove at 19 cases on thursday. a recall during the current way, 4th wave of infections. they are very promising sides. but largely bare presents, even those who have in hospital about many of them are incidental. they came in just a little for other reasons, other illnesses. and because when you have to be admitted, you have to be tested for many of those who had come for other reasons, have does that positive deep to go to the sun. he is an epidemiologist and senior lecturer, queen mary university london. she says the pe, some a kronos spreading in south africa, the u. k. so just hospital admissions will rise significantly. even the field this is severe is less severe. it's really,
7:20 am
really concerning because what we've seen has, is very, very rapid spreading the housing province in south africa with a doubling time of 2 to 3 days. and that's faster than any other previous wave. and when you have that sort of impact it, regardless of the severity of the weird and you will see a large number of hospitalizations simply because the large number of people being impacted by a way of like that exponential growth. so within the u. k, we are seeing this variant now double every 3 days. so even if it was half as severe in 3 days time, you would have doubled the number of cases, an equal number of hospitalizations. ultimately, the impact is going to be dominated by the rate of growth in the sheer number of people affected rather than how severe it is in each individual. and at present we don't really have a lot of data about securities too early to say because it's always a sort of lag between cases and death. so we'll have to wait and see. but regardless of severity, there's oxy no doubt that this is a vein that will have a higher fact not just in south africa in the u. k. and globally where it will likely become the next globally dominant gradient. and we're just beginning to
7:21 am
start seeing rises in debts in the shawnee inn shawnee, our in house, which is the epicenter of the outbreak. and we don't know what to directory that will follow. but yes, the people who are being affected, at least in the beginning have been young people compared to previously have said that it in itself may reduce the severity. but the picture it is actually quite makes what you find is that it is higher in young people, particularly in children, but no and an adult. and we don't fully understand why it may partially be because of high vaccine uptake and older people or some level of protection because of previous infection. flooding in south sudan is effected, 70 percent of the country is northern states of unity. the head of the un mission in the country visited the city of been to, to assess recovery efforts. it's estimated to have impacted up to a 150000 people. the u. n. is wanting, flood waters could take up to 15 years to evaporate. naturally. the winners of this,

7:23 am
shared reality. no democracy for a colonial dmitri motor tough has been one of russia's most prominent, independent journalists since 1993. when he established the newspaper of via ozetta, fearlessly criticizing the kremlin and exposing human rights abuses and corruption, him sick of its journalists have been killed since the year 2000. they went, tears in the audience as he list of the names of the dead was used, an old proverb to explain why. his newspaper perseveres was come here on greece. come even get he is a car. when the dogs bark the caravan keeps walk and government, sometimes derisively say this about journalists that we bought, but it doesn't affect anything about the car and drugs forward. because the dogs bone, they savage, the predators, and the caravan can move forward. not only with the dogs around it, and after the award presentation, the to laura sat down with sarah to discuss the impact of the price and the
7:24 am
democratic importance. what the news media, both my gosh, how can we do our jobs if trust is broken down? the people watching, do they believe us, that that's the core of the problem? i think that we're facing today. nascar la copa, we are in the middle of a post truth period. every one is concerned about his own ideas and not the facts. social science shows that in around 75 percent of people, even when they know the difference between truth and lie. if they like the lie better, they will treat the lie as truth. we're trying to do something about that. this is rasa and nora cover. the 1st journalist to receive the peace prize since calvin was yet to be one in 1935 for revealing germany's secret postwar rearmament program. their award consists of a diploma, a gold medal, and a cheque worth just over a $1000000.00 to be shared between them. their prize, the chance to highlight the importance of the truth or brennan al jazeera

7:26 am
since this moment matters, democratic states should stand up for the values should demand accountability. you leave little journalists alone. it's not enough so that that's one. the 2nd is journalist news organizations, right? we must collaborate and help each other, because the days when we used to compete with each other, i think those days are gone. we're now on the same side fighting for facts. and you know, who i know is who i, who i call out on the other side is in many ways what is watered down? facts are the new gatekeepers, the technology companies that have abdicated responsibility for the public sphere. many people, it's clear from our discussion, do not believe, fact based, proven information. and it's not just a problem for journalists. we're in the middle of a pandemic, and scientists and doctors people aren't believing them. are you surprised by all this information that surrounded cobra? 90 nestali type or ha,
