are making serious separates, in order to attend the with a 50 years after a bloody sunday. northern island remembers one of his darkest moments, and victims still searched for armesis. it was random. father, i still must les fuller, i wish i had a fuller. after all my upbringing, ah, logan, i'm peter darby. you're watching al jazeera alive from dough are also coming up. boots is go to the polls in portugal, snap election,

but there's little optimism for a clear winner. al jazeera gets rare access to separatist control. don't that skin eastern ukraine with the scars of a forgotten war are still fresh. most of the people that used to live in this neighbourhood, a true afraid to return because of the sporadic shelley and now increasing phase of a potential renewed conflict and aid agencies war and the world's most severe humanitarian crisis in yemen is likely to west ah, in northern ireland, people mocking the 50th anniversary of the bloody sunday killings when bushy soldiers shot dead 14 unarmed protests was. ah, it was one of the darkest moments of what became known as the troubles of violent

conflict lasting more than 30 years. families of those killed gathered for a memorial service and a walk of remembrance through the city where the killings happened. there's a long road ahead and many more his to play, but let's not allow any of that to hold us back from doing what in our hearts we knew needs to be done clueless with the same spirit that sustained the bloody sunday families across 50 years. we will little by little succeed in lifting our city to greater heights of hope and that my friends will be testament to the struggles of those who have gone before and a legacy for those who will come after looking back at the events of 50 years ago, today his under chappelle, your photograph has taken back its been 50 years since kate lost her brothers from his guitar to music on the radio startup. at the age of 19,

william was killed by the british army. his death became part of the cover up by the british government. that absolute left should never have happened. and, and even at that, it should have been dealt with a long, long time ago. at shouldn't have been covered up. well, always mustn't always muslim. the on january 30th, 1972 british paratroopers had been fire no, no civil rights demonstrators. they were protesting against treatment without trial and discrimination against catholics. the minority community who wanted northern ireland out of the u. k. and for unity with the rest of ireland, dennis, bradley witnessed it all unfold. i remember standing here i do in a young group of people's coming was a body carrying a body and running towards that. and seeing that a young, a young man was very badly injured. the victims,

7 of them, teenagers, were branded terrace. the soldiers cleared in a british judicial inquiry, viewed by historians as a farce. it took nearly 4 decades to expose the army coverage. and for the families to receive an apology from the u. k. prime minister, david cameron in 2010 the violence that day lets was surgeon recruits to the provisional irony which fought in armed campaign against british troops and police trying to force the u. k. to abandon its control of northern ireland, the conflict known as the troubles continued for more than 30 years of sectarian violence. also involving pro british loyalists paramilitary organizations. more than 3500 people died and thousands were injured. and estimated $10000.00 bombings were carried out. oh, but none of the 18 former paratroopers who carried out the bloody sunday killings as to trial. the family say they will never give up in the fight for justice and

accountability with the people. he took up the model number of the people he expose the british army on the british government for what they really did on blood is on the, not their original. and it's very important that we will keep us going when our hilde, the next generation of grandchildren will, will keep this on. however, we'll keep the story alight. 50 years on the families are still waiting for answers and a day in court and chappelle al jazeera. but we held her pull dorothy there in that report whose father was one of the protest is killed by british soldiers that he at . we spoke to tony his brother and he began by explaining how you k, paratroopers targeted civil rights, marches that day. my life, those stopped in many ways. i was rather father. i still must my father. i wish i had a father through all my upbringing recently itself was a watershed in the, in the psyche,

a few months of the people of the city of the old. and that's for many people after billy sunday and after the ladies that were told to show the debt to say that people never gave it, don't matter. then became members of the irish public army and the days, weeks and years after sunday. and like what, how was it society, we meet the terrible, what happened? because the conflict which was only and just station sort of periods even up to up to the end of may to $71.00, became worse exacerbated. and i would say that hundreds of thousands of people lost their life because of the sunday. i think they

is a matter of unfinished business. no soldier has been convicted of a court of law the master of so they are the individual killings that took place that day. so justice, and many respects remains to be don't legal just as a criminal justice, a certainly something which hadn't happened. and in respect of my father's f or the death of the, our man. it's clear at this stage of the story of somebody and over no 1998, the u. k. government ordered an inquiry. it took 12 years to complete. the results were published in the saddle report. it concluded that quotes what happened on bloody sunday. strengthened the provisional, i re increased nationalist resentment and hostility towards the army and exacerbated the violent conflict of the years that followed. bloody sunday was

a tragedy for the bereaved and the wounded and a catastrophe for the people of northern island. early i spoke to jeremy corbin, formerly a u. k. labor party leader. he has been active in the political affairs relating to the conflict in northern ireland for many years. i asked him 1st, if a previous labor governments are also culpable in was perceived of the denial of justice for the victims, families. every british government has had some culpability in the lack of convictions. the labor government of 1997 did introduce a or did ensure that was an a 2nd sci fi. the 1st sci fi happened under john nature and did under the guidance of my modem. tony blair was prime minister the time didn't bring about the peace process did bring about the belfast agreement. but the bell has to agreement, vital and import. does it spain, to maintain a relative peace in northern ireland since 1998 has not insured. there are prosecutions and that is the fundamental question and, and so i,

you hold no parties on nature of this over party politics. what i want to say is justice. that means a, an ability for those that have victims to bring about a prosecution or the british government to tell us exactly who gave the orders to fire and why the army spokes person immediately after that tried to address the whole thing up as though those that died was somehow culpable in their own death, but this is not respectfully, so just to interrupt you. this is not about putting the justice outside the reach of the people who are directly affected by the events of bloody sunday. is it because if we cast our memories back to the atmosphere in northern island, across the u. k. in the run up to the good friday agreement, arguably, can i suggest you the atmosphere politically was to fee broil, to have a situation where tony blair was pushing for the good friday agreement. proximity

talks at a time when, if it had been, if somebody had gone public with a british prime minister is in effect talking to the i r re 18 months or 2 years before that that would have been political suicide. he was absolutely of the witcher, the richard tribunal, and remember that the proximity talks and the 2nd cease fire in the belfast of and did all happen in 199798. and we've had a very long time now of the operation of the good friday agreement that has been plenty of time in which they could and should have been far more activity on that to bring about some form of justice. some form of legal process because several reported some while ago as well. and so i think that the people of dairy deserve to know the truth on this. and of course the anger and dairy this weekend is about the sadness of those families that lost them. but it's also the sense of

anger that so welcome. as the statement was made by david cameron some years ago. now, i didn't really answer the question about who was actually culpable. no one has been charged. no one has been prosecuted. yet a enquiry very, very detailed enquiry over 12 years, maybe absolutely clear that they were killed by the army on the streets of that city. jeremy colbin talking to us earlier, voting on the way in a snap election in portugal with no party expected to in. and outright majority, the ballot was called by the socialist government after its coalition partners switch sides and blocked a spending bill. portugal tourism dependent economy has been badly hit by the global pandemic. the next prime minister will be responsible for managing a $50000000000.00 e. you recovery package, adam reiney jones's life from lisbon adam was the turn out like so far.

well actually the latest numbers coming from the government from the election board shows that people are motivated or animated to come out in 2019 the last general election in the mid afternoon, around 4 pm local about 38 percent of voters who could cast ballots had voted and this year were already 46 percent, but that time only a point difference, but it does show there's more interest and we haven't even seen this special window open up yet between 6 and 7 pm local and which people who are isolating kids. they are covered positive or close contact with someone is covered positive to come to the polls so, so far as science pointing to higher than normal turn out. and that's probably because peter, the fact is people are motivated for change. they've seen how much damage has been wrought economically by the pandemic. they see how the political parties haven't been able to even agree on the budget last year that triggered this election. so

they really want leaders to come together form a consensus and get moving. so they can improve the economy here, so focused on tours and but many other fields because portugal it's really lagging behind. many fell you countries and they're tired of it here. frankly, all the new politicians to vote for the latin. because in, in a, in a country where it's, you know, proportional representation going into a coalition government. usually what happens is, it's, it's a revolving door of m. p. 's going out on the hustings and then going back into government. exactly what we're seeing. one political analyst told us, peter, is perhaps the most momentous, most disruptive election in portugal since the return of democracy in 1974, after a dictatorship. and frankly, this analysts told us that's because mainly one party shake stands for enough. that means enough in portuguese, this hard right wing party has started to gain and popularity only had one seed

after 2019. and it's on target to perhaps went up to a dozen feats. and that's because people here, like many countries in the european union, in other parts the world, people are looking to these right wing populace parties as a way to express their frustration with the status quo. and that's what really surprised and took the attention of a few political and sweep in speaking to. so this is going to be a momentous election because we're going to see the kind of the chessboard and parliament change. you may have the hard right wing party not just have a few seats, but be the 3rd place party in these elections. and that wouldn't only make this the most disruptive election. it would be a huge surprise. the one who's been watching portuguese politics because many people who say will never have a right wing party getting a lot of seats because we have this dictatorship and we've learned. but many people say, well, most people who lipsy that dictatorship are frankly, either not alive or don't or aren't voting in the younger generation who are set up

with the response to pandemic, or sometimes gravitating to this, to this populace movement. adam, thank you very much. adam rainy the talking to his life from the portuguese capital list, but still to come here on this program. a church losing its slow, quite young people in poland, turning away from catholicism. and the echo was delegation holds talks with the keen, offensive to leaders after spending the country on its right. ah hello there. there's more unsettled weather, looming across levant and middle east. this week from a weather system that's pulling east of the mediterranean, bring some heavy snow to the likes of turkey. that'll edge down into syria and work its way across iraq and onwards to iran. we've also got more wet and windy weather

that's going to pull into coastal areas of libya and egypt kicking up some possible sand storms, blowing it across the red sea and we're seeing some showers tickling to coastal areas of saudi arabian others join up with some showers that we'll see in q wait on tuesday, but for the south of this, there is going to be some wounds coming back in to some of the gulf states like guitar dosing, 27 degrees by tuesday. that was a move across to north africa. it's looking wetter in the northwest corner as it is in the north east, but for the very wet weather we have to edge down to southern parts of africa. we've got the remnants of cyclone on a continuing to dump. torrential downpours in places like and go latin namibia. we could see the threat of flooding stretching all the way through to tanzania. it's very wet as well for interior areas of south africa for madagascar. it is looking lot of fine and dry on monday and tuesday, but there's a cyclone working its way. we're keeping an eye on that track by the mid week. that should weather update. i'll be back with more later.

ah, the frank assessments for china? well, benefit from the 0 call it strategy. if the rest of the world cannot get to get informed opinions at all costs luckiest on needs. i'm not ready for that statement . critical debate. why group would claims that need to constitutes an interest in chill threat to russia? but it's precisely his actions that's rated this insecurity in the region. in depth analysis of the days global headlines inside story on al jazeera lou. ah,

welcome back here watching al jazeera, your top stories. this half hour in northern island, people are marking the 50th anniversary of the bloody sunday killings when 14 unarmed protested were shot dead by british soldiers. it was one of the darkest moments of what became known as the troubles. loadings underway in portugal snap general election with no party expected to win the outright majority of the ballot was called by the socialist government after its coalition partners switch sides and block to spending. bill ukraine is urging its western allies to be quotes, vigilant and firm in their talks with russia. now that comes after the u. s. president announced a small troop deployment to eastern europe, hemispheres of a russian invasion, the kremlin has denied it has any such plans. but as charles stratford reports now from the nets, many living in separatists controlled eastern ukraine already align themselves with moscow. this is no man's land between ukrainian government forces and separatist

fighters with the self declared don x people's republic. the russian bank authorities and ask, have given us rare access to the territory they control for the 1st time since 2017 . the city seems more russian than when we were last here. on the surface, at least the statue of lenin still stands, prowled over the main square next to a russian flag. but there are also vast pro rochelle mil rules on buildings. this one reads russian, don bass, a heart in the colors of the russian flag, sits in the snow covered park destruction from 8 years of conflict is worse nay. what used to be done at scare port? this was where some of the heaviest fighting took place between pro russia separatists and the ukrainian government forces. when conflict started in 2014

nichol, i says he and many people like him see little chance of a future with a ukranian government wanting closer ties with europe and nato. russia promote russia will help putin warned the west don't dare to put a foot in this region. there is no future with ukraine unless it changes. some residents, like vladimir occasionally come to try and repair their homes. mccook should say, we are between a rock and a hard place. there are no jobs. we are doing our best to survive. many people say that i don't want to go back to ukraine off to what's happened either people want independence or to join russia. most of the people that used to live in this neighbourhood, a too afraid to return because of the sporadic, shelly, and now increasing phase of a potential renewed conflict. but there is a side to life internet, so that perhaps reflects a determination to live a normal life, especially amongst the young generation,

many of whom were children. when the conflict started, many young people have left for russia or elsewhere in search of jobs. night clubs like this one only open at weekends and have to close when the curfew starts at 10 p. m. engine as we are separated from the rest of the world. for example, we cannot use international payment systems and it's difficult to get in and out. my travel to, to buy in europe, but those i can't afford to go out. they just stuck. ne, here really no matter what happens he, a young people are trying to find joy in life. we try our best to live like people, day in the rest of the world. russia has always denied supporting the separatists militarily, saying the conflict as an internal matter for the ukrainian government and their opponents to solve. but russia's influence here seems stronger than ever. something people say the ukrainian government, whom at international backers always fail to understand charles stratford al

jazeera, don't ask incident a protest. it was killed to day during demonstrations, against the military and the capital city. car tube demonstrates as have been rallying there 3 months since the military takeover security forces fide tear gas and rubber bullets while protested as we're heading towards the presidential palace . exit was held, talks with booking of answers. qu, leaders, you and officials are also expected to join the discussions on monday, but enough answer was suspended from echo was after last week's military takeover. the army is now on a recruitment drive to send more people to the front line, as nicholas hark reports. now from y, good to go. in search for his family's approval, miriam's brother joined burkina faso, his army with a uniform comes respect, but also the risk of death. she didn't make much of the call he made when night announcing he was going to the front line. the war in the north feels far away from work. i do almost like it's happening in

a different country. but now the reality of war is heading home. bodies of soldiers are returning in coffins among them. miriam's brother, he was killed in an ambush by al qaeda fighters. his healthy people isn't much. when i see soldiers uniform, i want to break down and cry. it reminds me my brother of a corpse laying in a coffin. still, the sight of uniforms makes me scared. fear is spreading. millions are displaced. al qaeda, nasal fighters continued to gain ground almost a week after colonel dominga took power in a qu, there's a precarious calm in the capital and fear that with political instability he will likely be more tax. this is what is less of working. if i says military headquarters, it was attacked in 2018 by now qaeda affiliate for years on it still has not been rebuilt, curled than me, but promise this change in the military to shore up the morales troops that has suffered so many losses. and it starts with a call to arms broadcast on the radio,

across the nation, the message of colonel dom eva joined the fight to save the country. i am ready to take up arms because each time de attack to put our country in morning. why is this happening to our country? why are we under attack? those that killed her brother are al qaeda fighters, but only by name says miriam. they are locals. she believes poverty is feeling the violence and not ideology. poverty and unemployment means young men are led by armed groups. we need to find a way to feed families and bring back the states authority in those remote areas while she cannot bring back her brother, she hopes peace can be brought back to this nation. gripped by bloodshed, nicholas hawk al jazeera. why do go? north korea has testified. was thought to be as longest range missile since 2017 south korea's military. he says the intermediate range ballistic missile was launched from judge ng province. sundays launch was pyongyang,

7th this month. the u. s. as north korea has demonstrated a threats and violated un resolutions, countries in the region condemned the move. busy after nearly 8 years of conflict, yemen continues to be mired in a humanitarian crisis. millions of desperate for food and medicine, and the un and other aid agencies of wanting the situation is likely to get worse. his aside bake, malnourished, but receiving treatment. her brother lost his life for the same reasons. there are hundreds of other families in a similar situation in this port city of her day, the in western human and across the rest of the country have as she started on the nourishment you mania and will say dire and about cost, her condition is unpredictable as you can see she's very fro muster, nor is one of the few receiving treatment the an estimated 40000 children not getting the food they need to grow up healthy and further to 1000000. suffer from

moderate menu trish and tell us what they are. gratefully. the cases we received are all very critical that considering the many style living conditions, lack of medical care and failure to treat other symptoms, my also lead to acute under nourishment. it's very alarming. we lose hundreds of children. many, many do not have access to medical facilities. the war has been raging since 2014 agencies are struggling to meet the demand in 2015. the united nations declared german, one of the biggest humanity in crisis in the world. and was saudi arabia and the us have spent billions of dollars in the hole in comparison very little has been spent on those who have suffered as a result, i said, bay of desert the leader of poland, roman catholics has admitted his church is in decline. young polls are turning away in huge numbers. one of the main problems is the failure to acknowledge and deal

with child thanks. abuse by priests. john hall reports from also. the catholic church has been at the center of polish life for centuries. more recently, a major influence in the anti communist solidarity movement, and of course, it gave the world a pope. it is a church now in a state of moral crisis and declined that some believe could be terminal. was until 10 chris is the bishops don't seem to realize how deep this crisis is, the process there to attach to their luxuries and palaces. the decline is very steep. i think even a vertical on you as a 12 year old old boy in the 1980s young shoemake, who was sexually abused by his parish priest. it went on for 5 years, vivid and disturbing testimony presented to his area, bishop in 1993 was at 1st ignored and then he says covered up in pre trial hearings ahead of a civil case being her next month. the church question deanna his own sexuality and

whether he might actually have enjoyed the abuse and internal church investigation sentenced his abuser to a period of reflection and prayer continued to be in psychological, in psychiatric treatment. i think i will suffer until the end of my life, because these memories cannot be raised from my mind. father andre kobylinski is electra at warsaw as catholic university. i asked him if enough was being done to address the crisis. not at all, not at all, not at all. unfortunately, it made it this very upsetting. but there is no courage to answer to all these challenges. allegations of historic sexual abuse by catholic priests have been piling up as the issue has gained prominence and exposure since 2019 and claims of negligence by the church hierarchy have led to

the official censure of a dozen polish bishops in what the church describes as a process of purification, but that is done nothing to prevent or collapse in the numbers who regularly attend mass, especially among the young in a country that officially classifies 90 percent of its population as catholic among young people with more liberal attitudes to things like abortion divorce and l g b t rights, less than 10 percent have a positive view of the church. i think it's impossible to church for terry to have any future if they continue to say things like that. they're saying now. and because like times are changing before, are trainings nowadays charged doesn't live up to the times. we are living now and just stace backwards to people like cash at the church is an institution with

dwindling relevance in their lives. a faith in freefall here in poland. jonah, how al jazeera was so roughly on the dol has made tennis history, he beat danny, met with f in an epic australian open final to claim a record breaking 21st grand slam title in a match. the last it more than 5 hours. the spaniard staged a stomach come back after losing the 2 opening sent to beat his russian opponent. this is neville 2nd title, the melbourne after his victory there in 2009. ah . 1730 gmc your top story so far today here on al jazeera to northern ireland, where people today marking the 50th anniversary of the bloody sunday killings when 14 anom protesters were shot dead by british soldiers. it was one of the darkest move.
