11:02 am
leadership is hanging by a thread, but he's refusing to step down. the pressure comes off to he admitted making a mistake in promoting an m p, who's been accused of sexual assault since tuesday. more than 40 members of his government have resigned. on wednesday, johnson sacked a senior minister michael. gov, who'd reported they told them it was time to go more ministers of since joined in the chorus, calling for johnson to leave, but have kept their jobs so far. he also faced a fiery question, time in parliament on wednesday. a delegation of cabinet ministers met with johnston at downing street urging him to resign. the group reportedly included some of his long standing allies. let's go live to downing street out 0 pole, brendan. is that force pull any sign of the prime minister? there isn't no, but as he's browsing through the newspapers, watching the your television and listening to the radio this morning. it's a pretty bleak picture and frankly we're in really serious crisis. now. we've had 7
11:03 am
ministers of state that resigned that this morning alone and i'll run through some of the brand new. it's northern ireland secretary, so secretary state, that's a cabinet level at resignation and he said decent and responsible government relies on honesty and i no longer believe those values are being upheld. helen weekly treasury minister, damien hines, security minister, the most recent one has just gone in the last few minutes michelle dall and the education secretary, another secretary of state cabinet level post. she was only imposed for 24 hours. she was only made education secretary a day ago, take me over as education. secondly, when not eames or how we was moved from the education sector to become chancellor after richard sooner quit on tuesday. so it that the, the dropping like flies here in london and michelle dolan's resignation letter is scaly. i see no way she said to boris johnson in her letter that you can continue
11:04 am
in post. you have put us in an impossible position. ah, i mean, the problem is that boris johnson is not returning. we saw it on wednesday with bullish performance. is the prime minister questions session in the house of commons and a session of the gaze on committee to our interrogation by the persons of the various parliamentary committees in which he let it be known. other than that he was not going to quit. and although, as you mentioned in the introduction, there was a profession of cabinet message coming here to down the street during the course of whether the evening last evening to tell him, look, the game is up for the good of the country. you must go now bought johnson and his staff is close a staff with lisa clay into the concept that he believes he has a mandate. a colossal mandate has he puts it to continue prime minister. the problem is, the claim frankly, has no basis in either politics or legality. has been
11:05 am
a succession of constitutional experts. speaking this morning, talking about how far is johnson concept that this is his personal mandate was prime minister is simply false. the way that prime minister chosen in this country is that voters vote for the individual constituency and piece those and peace come to parliament. i'm the party which has the most m. p. 's guest to choose who the primary that will be the mandate lives with the paul with the party. not, not, not with the people so embarrassed. johnson parents the line at 14000000 people voted for him personally. while his critics are saying this is just downright vanity, and that's, i think, why we are now in a really serious situation where ousting a prime minister, who has chosen to dig in in this way and put his face against convention. and indeed, some would say the actual reality is going to prove extremely bitter and very
11:06 am
difficult indeed i can, he survive? theoretically he can, if he chooses to just defy the rules on the conventions. but it's, it's dragging is party down with him and certainly it's not, sir, but in the position himself in any, in any great. so good light, if, if, as you say he continues to, to, to dig in it with some of the ministers having quit his government, it's going to be like impossible for him to form a functioning cabinet with what happens, paul? you say it's, this is a serious political crisis. can they force him to go that there are options look that it's, i think what's happening at the moment and that it's from the raft of resignation that we've seen this morning. it looks like the strategy. although with they're not comparing, it's coordinated with the number of resignations we're seeing this morning is essentially to leave for a johnston without any ministers to work with. and if there are no ministers,
11:07 am
then it's not necessarily a constitutional crisis, it becomes a crisis of government. government simply grinds to a halt. legislation can't pass through parliament if there aren't ministers there. presenting is decisions can't be made. if there isn't a ministers to sign off on them, so you know that the whole process grinds to a halt. and the other thing is that, because it's spoke about, the mandate comes from the party. the party already had an attempt to, to remove boris johnson from power a month ago, 2 weeks ago actually, and failed the confidence vote. he won it, although not by a convincing majority. and under the rules of the conservative party at the moment, they can't hold another confidence vote for 12 months now there are moves of foot to try to change those rules and change them pretty quickly in order to accelerate this process and, and bring the yeah, allow a new confidence vote to happen, but those aren't the rules at the moment. ah, the executive of this committee that would set those rules meets at the start of next week. so it could be that boys johnson lives on front of
11:08 am
a couple of days. it could be that he finally read the tea leaves and reads the room, and the printer will come out at some point today and he decides to give up the ghost. but it's impossible to read the minded forest johnston who has proved himself to be such an unconventional and challenging prime minister basically an a prime minister unlike any that have gone before l 0 port brennan, reporting live from downing street in london. paul, for the moment, many thanks. more than $400.00 prisoners still on the run in nigeria, off to an attack on a prison that was claimed by iso more than $800.00 inmates escaped from the correctional facility and a buddha at at least 4 prisoners at a security officer were killed. among those still on the loose, i believe to be leading figures from iso and boe out um the people who came to do with the records, we believe that it will be less and less likely there will go
11:09 am
with that acacia and eventually with life to nigeria is capital a butcher al jazeera as i'm address is there i'm at. what's the latest allies, the office you either people or post? well, basically apart from i some claiming responsibility, the government says it's still looking for the escape prisoners. but the question is, how far have they gone and how easy will it be for them to recover the prisoners? we're talking about $63.00 or 60 fall, harden bulk warren commanders, including the chief bomb maker and one of the fear i feared commanders on the button on the battlefield. yes. but what i'm fight is, and i so i swap support is, may be surrendering in the northeast of the country. but these are the foot soldiers. we talking about people who have been recruited or forced to fight for
11:10 am
the group. but on wednesday night, what we saw is the escape of people convicted of atrocities in the north east and other parts of the country. and these are members of ice swap and book water. um, these people are on the news and that brings us to the next question. what's the mood like around a buddha where this incident happen? there is fear and concern that these people may be high, been eating with elijah community. and there could be, it could be possible that probably in the next few weeks or months or even years to come though, but still been living with this people and the threat of bomb attacks in the capital that have been that us that has disappeared for more than 5 or 6 years now, we're new ton in the capitol. now we're talking about the mux it, these medium secure to prison. it is a medium security prison adrian. but the fact of the matter is that this is the most sick to off, medium, secure prison, it one more much more secured, then the maximum security prison we have in other places. and this is not the
11:11 am
foster by the way of these attacks happening on a prison in nigeria or in the country to lean up with your queer prison has been attacked several times. and this is why you have high profile, ah, criminals and government, officious government officials like governors ministers. i ami chiefs would have been a disgraced out of office because of corruption. i kept that. so the question is, what would it be the outcome? what would be the secure child? look, we understand that the president was stay yesterday and he lamented the intelligence failure sound in his attack. but the question is, we've seen this repeating itself over and over and over in the northwest in the north east. central puzzle. nigeria. what will the government do? it's a big question that most nigeria is asking. adrian, how does eras amid address reporting live from a boudreau manufacture date on it? the presidents of the democratic republic of congo, andrew wanda, the great,
11:12 am
deescalate tension surrounding the m 23 armed group. the congolese government accuses rwanda backing the rebels who been attacking civilians and it's north keeping province. during talks in angola, the 2 leaders agreed to the immediate unconditional withdrawal of the rebels from inside the democratic republic of congo. whether update backs on al jazeera, then one year after the assassination of a president, haiti is still trying to pick up the pieces. we'll have more on the chaos left behind after the death of job with our boys. a molar just fun and games of summer camp in garza that offers palestinian kids week away from their troubles. ah,

lots of sunshine across much of the north. we also wet weather in the west with some heavy falls to come for southern areas of molly, that wet weather, stretching all the way through the central band of africa for the south of this is bone dry across western areas. little bit of rain trickling into the east. for cape town, we're going to see a cool down, and that's going to stretch across south africa through the weekend. cats ha, airway issue and line of the journey. under cover reporting, i worked with, you know, what? 1000000 didn't do, doug could finance to the whole election revealing corruption. i see that in exposing criminals if he wants to do that. a dedicated unit for investigative journalism, how much we have to pay for the girls, it is more than they slavery exclusive stories. explosive results, al jazeera investigations.
11:15 am
oh ah. hello again. this is al jazeera, let's remind you of our top stories to the south. britain's private subarus johnston fighting to stay in office as he faces a growing rebellion within his ruling party over a series of scandals. in the last few minutes, british media has begun to report that the prime minister has accepted, but he has to go and will resign to day. foreign ministers, sir, hold them 400 rather prisoners from a stool. the run in nigeria archer attack on a prison. that was claimed by i so leading figures from the iso a bow cohort,
11:16 am
i'm armed groups of believe to be among the escapees. foreign ministers from the world's leading economy. it's a gathering in indonesia for talks under the shadow of the war in ukraine. for some of them, the g. 20 meeting will be the 1st encounter with moscow's foreign minister since rushes invasion. robert bride report style from the island of bali holding the presidency of the g. 20 indonesia, as president joker. dodo has positioned himself at the center of global events after meeting with the leaders of the g 7. last week. he undertook shuttle diplomacy between the competence in the ukraine war, seeing for himself, the destruction in the town of a pin outside the capital cave. and that it's very sad, a lot of houses and infrastructure are broken. we hope no other ukraine cities would be ravaged because the war then to moscow for talks with russian president vladimir putin as a leading force in the so called non aligned movement of nations. indonesia
11:17 am
believes it could act as a bridge between the 2 sides of participation in, hey, tanya, in meeting will be a very valuable opportunity for the russian government to address a position to the rest of the world. and which is not only advantages to put in government, russia, but it may be quite conducive to all warring party in the ukraine crisis. russia foreign minister said love rove is due to hold bilateral meetings with some of his counterparts, but significantly not with us. secretary of state and city lincoln. the last time the 2 met was in a tense encounter in january when the raw gave his assurance. russia had no plans to invade ukraine. a month before the day just that the g 20 came into being in part to deal with the fallout from economic crises that the g 7 couldn't handle on
11:18 am
its own, especially in recent times, this gathering takes place as the world is now facing the perfect storm of global challenges, the ukraine war threatens a worldwide food crisis and n denisia like many countries, is heavily reliant on grain from the region. the war is also helping push up energy costs that are driving inflation. added to that ongoing tensions in the indo pacific with china increasingly confronting its neighbors, a nato at its last meeting, promising to push back. in this idyllic island setting the world is looking for solutions to some nightmarish scenarios with any signs of progress being welcome right now. and rob joins us now live from valley, rob, what's happening there right now? it is a fairly low key. i started to this g 20 on the 1st day happening, a mid tight security, but it has to be said a lot of the events taking behind
11:19 am
a place behind closed doors. not much access to the media tomorrow. friday is the main day when we'll have the set piece events, but as a foreign ministers arrive here, what tends to often happen at these big gatherings as they break away for bilateral meetings with one on ones with other foreign ministers. sometimes small groups of foreign ministers from a countries that have things in common. they want to discuss and talk about some of the most important bilaterals are taking place on this day with the world. second biggest economy, china and a foreign minister, wang ye, of china beating with some of his counterparts. the most important of those meetings will be of course with santa fe, love, rob the russian foreign minister. now this is a hugely important meeting, probably more so for the russians than for the chinese. it shows that they are not as ostracized in the world as the us and its allies would like them to be at because of it's an invasion of ukraine. and you'll remember that just before the
11:20 am
war started, chief jim ping of china held the summit with vladimir putin, where they talked about their relationship and partnership having and no limit. so it's important for russia and fuller volved to show that they are still having this relationship equally important for the us to try to make sure that the russia doesn't use this world stage to try to give legitimacy to its invasion of ukraine. and we've been hearing from antony blink and the u. s. secretary of state who is still on his way here to this summit. but we know from refueling stops on the way talking to the bubble of journalists to who are accompanying him. he had said that he doesn't want a russia to be given legitimacy from this event that has been echoed by some of it states allies who are already here. or we have heard also from another u. s. official saying that this g 20 will certainly not be business as usual, but rob given the scale of problems and the potential divisions within the t 20. i
11:21 am
mean, in reality can be any progress on the issues that are there to discuss. we are probably not expecting any formal a breakthrough. you will rightly point out that this is a very diverse group. it's not like the g 7, which is there are some of the stronger economies, but very much western oriented democratic institutions. this is far more diverse group with these non align nations such as india and indonesia who are taking a farm ball even handed approach. when it comes, for example, to the war in a ukraine, indonesia would like her there to be some sort of progress on securing food supplies. because it's almost an advocate if you like, for the developing nations of the world who are being impacted by all of the food crisis that we now seeing likelier as a result of what's happening in ukraine. but i think there is an acceptance that because of all of the different tensions and the potential fracture lines that
11:22 am
exist here. a, we're not going to see, for example, any, a formal or a family, a group photo that we would normally expect to see with 20 foreign ministers standing there. we are not going to see a formal communique at the end. in fact, it does seem as though the hosts here and the main participants don't want to see any kind of war count that we have seen at international gatherings that took place just after the war started. where as soon as a russian official says something, the u. s. official and a u. s. is allies feel as though they have to stage a walk up? i think there is an acceptors that that will probably not benefit anybody that if there is going to be any progress it will be made in a low key way. probably behind closed doors out is errors. rob mcbride reporting live there from the g. 20 meeting on the island of bali. rob many thanks, and human rights watch is accusing caliber forces of committing atrocities in eastern afghanistan and operations targeting an eyesore splinter group. report says the abuses were committed and the 2 eastern provinces of kuna,
11:23 am
and anger harp. the organization accuses the taliban of carrying out abductions and summary executions of alleged members of islamic state of called a song province. the report says the people accused of sheltering or supporting members of had their homes rated out of suffered beatings and detention since they're not about to take over. last year, people say that they found the bodies of more than $100.00 men dumped in canals at other locations. patricia, patricia grossman is the associate director of asia of human rights watch and an author of the report. she says the taliban government fails to hold its forces accountable. we 1st began to hear about these kinds of search operations and detention last fall. but what this report provides evidence of is the, the numbers of bodies that have turned up, and the accounts from residents who been looking for their relatives who were detained. some point apple,
11:24 am
the told on peg over. and it was subsequently disappeared. and we have your relatives who been searching among the bodies in these canals to find the the relatives who've been picked up by the tell about months ago. they do not want the i s k p to gain any further ground in afghanistan. but unfortunately, there's adopting counterterrorism tactics, which are very likely to lead to more revenge and more recruitment by i s k p because whole communities have been targeted in these grades and that's likely just to feel resentment and grievances in those communities. what's important here is it's very similar to what we saw with the revenge killings of the african national security forces, which we documented after the telephone takeover as well. it's more that the telephone authorities do not hold their own men accountable, but basically told them we had quoted as saying if you find someone who belongs to or support i s k p, the some state route, we just kill them. and with that message goes out and there's no accountability
11:25 am
them. this is the result. u. s. prosecutor said the man charged with killing 7 people at a 4th of july parade outside chicago as confessed, but he say 21 year old robert cream. oh, lisa went to another independence to events and considered opening fire there. if convicted, he faces life in prison. it's a year ago since hating his president juvenile moiz was murdered inside his home. the investigation into his assassination is still going on. the case has cast a dark shadow over an unstable country that is embroiled in political and economic crises, an escalating going violence out his ears for as a bo reports. oh no, me. san luis has been living in the shelter for weeks. he was forced to leave her home when battles between rival gangs took over her neighbourhood importer prince. oh, i'm a disabled person and i'm the father and mother of children. the situation i'm living in isn't good at all. even to go to the doctor's office. i have to go and
11:26 am
ask in the street because of the insecurity now means among thousands of people who have been displaced by the raging violence across much of haiti. this is part of the ongoing chaos, but has gripped the country ever since presidential in illinois was killed last year. this by dozens of arrests, including a group of columbia mercenaries, eighty's investigation has told. the acting prime minister ariel envy, fired his justice minister and prosecutor. last year, when they called for him to be investigated in connection with voice is murder. and he has denied any involvement in the killing, trying this oscillation and assess the presence of a difficult thing in any, in any country it's, it's, it's major. this is, this is really bad, but it may be the situation that we have. this is a to really all of our institutions have been functional, even under good or bad. the justice system, everything, the police,
11:27 am
everything is just a functional, a parallel investigation in the u. s has 3 suspects in custody, including a former u. s. government informant, who pleaded not guilty on wednesday and faces life in prison if convicted. the u. s . department of justice wants to seal evidence of past crimes by some of the suspect. many who are also informants, even though i deal in re took over the office of prime minister and enjoys the support of western powers, haitian civil society groups. question his authority and are hoping for a transition that will lead to elections that have been repeatedly delayed for 5 years. haitians are facing economic crisis that was only made worse by the pandemic . and the war in ukraine. half of the country struggling with food insecurity and rising inflation is making life harder for everyone. like thousands of others in search of a better life someplace else. and one guy that was forced back to haiti after being reported from the united states moving we are imprisoned in our own country because
11:28 am
the insecurity makes every single person have a single goal, which is to leave this country. the reason why it is uninhabitable, i feel like leaving this country again because the situation is very complicated. so complicated that more haitians than any time in recent memory, i risking everything to escape. believing the situation in their home country will not improve any time soon. they say, well, i'll just cedar back to the breaking news researcher about some moments ago, british media reporting, the perkins prime minister for us, johnson has agreed to resign his face to growing rebellion within his ruling party over a series of scandals. more than 50 members of his own government have resided lisco live to downing street. are desirous poll brandon? is there paul? what's the latest on the latest is well, at the latest, as far as the total goes, it's strict 5. now members of the government who have resign, i'll go back through some of them at the moment. for the most important line,
11:29 am
it's just immersed in the last 15. 20 minutes is a communicate from danny street, which says the prime minister will make a statement to the country to day. and the understanding is that forest johnson will step down as prime minister today he resigned. he wants to continue as prime minister until the autumn that said, but there will be a leadership race for the conservative party leadership during the summer. and the intention is that there will be a leader in place of the conservative party before while by the time of the conservative party annual conference, which takes place in october. so a brief statement from downing street saying the prime minister will make a statement to the country to day. what we expect to happen is that a pedestal, a re plinth will come out from the door behind the number 10 into the into the street. microphones will be attached and at some point or as johnson will emerge,
11:30 am
having bowed frankly to the inevitable after the pressure that has been put on him . to step down both rob for the good of the party, for the good of the country, he was vowing to hang on bowing to defy. the critics insisting that he had a mandate from the 14000000 people that he said voted for him journal. in the 2019 election, despite the fact that his cabinet ministers were putting in their resignation, letters and some of the language that they were using in those letters, was utterly scathing of boris johnson's leadership or his integrity of his vanity. as well as the most recent months ago was carolyne johnson, who's the conservative party chairman the cumulative effect of your errors of judgment. she wrote have squandered the goodwill of our great party. and she, she's just one of but 50. she was the 55th member of the government to quit. he was frankly running out of staff, running out of, of people in government to at to govern with a pull.
