hello, i'm robot this ellen, this is the news are alive from doha coming over the next 60 minutes. a private funeral was held for japan's longest subbing prime minister since who abbey, who was assassinated on friday. molly's military says it's arrested nearly 50 people. it describes as soldiers from ivory coast who've been operating, illegally shoreline. his former finance minister and brother of the president is stopped from leaving the country as anger wise is against the powerful family i'm to the universe and beyond. nasa unveils the 1st full color image of the cosmos from the revolutionary james web telescope. on gemini ashwin, sports is tiger woods repairs for over at sun to major golf and full time an empty champion. no ferris says, he was traffic to the u. k. as a child to luck, as a domestic servants. ah,

we're going to start this news are in japan would a private funeral is being held in tokyo for former prime assertion. so ob h, people lined the streets the capital to pay their final respects as his body has been taken from the soci temple to the funeral hall. the house is past the prime minister's office and parliament. abby was shot while he was campaigning at an election valley on friday. please have acknowledged that security lapses happened at the event or tony chang's joining us live now from tokyo. let's talk about what's been happening today. tony. talk us through what's been going on well we so that private funeral taking place inside the gigi temple. there were thousands of people outside. it was very clear that they were to remain outside. there was a very respectful sense, not a lot of noise being made. a lot of people had come with flowers that they were being allowed to to lay it respects as a tribute, the chin up

a lung corner. but then when those proceedings had been completed for the funeral, cortez emerged, and there was a sport, a spontaneous outbreak of applause. some of the mourners crying out final farewells to shins obey before the his body in the house went off on that tour of the administrative heart of tokyo. at some past some of those places that he had known so well. that finishing up the prime minister's office way, he had sat for longer than any prime minister in japanese history as it made one final po before taking his body away. tony, i refer to the investigation that was go, had been going on. and of course, the assassination that happened last friday. what more do we know about what happened on that day? but also, of course, about the investigation was up to development today about some claims we're hearing,

the suspect is made as his reasoning for the attack. he says he can't get to the abe's because of a connection, both the historical to sions of his grandfather and to be himself that he believes they have to the unification church. he says that his mother was a member of the church and was told that of a large amount of money. we seen the unification church, clearly not wanting to be linked to, to the assassination. come out. they say, the mother of the suspect was a member of the church, but they have no knowledge of any funds that contributed to the church or whether letter bankrupting. none the less, i think we have seen a very thorough review and an apology from the security services here they say, have admitted the security around since i was very light, but at the same time here, i don't think that's a great feeling of recrimination, young crime,

is incredibly reg guns are incredibly difficult to buy in japan. i don't think anyone expected an attack of this nation. neither rally, which is one of many that happens around election time. politicians of the most senior level can often be seen right down the street with their loud hail as and i think that's why there was so little security around since obey on friday. none the less what, what you do feel here is that profound show and i think that's really just sinking into many ordinary japanese this figure they were so familiar with who had been prime minister for decade is now very suddenly gone in such a changing way and i think that's only now beginning to think in 20. thank you very much to do tony chang talking to us from tokyo. tom here co tanika. she served as a special advisor and speechwriter for former prime assistant, so abbey. and he's joining us now from talk. you, sir, thank you very much indeed for being with us on al jazeera. and what is this the

mean to you personally? i still remain very much speechless and i don't know how to say, and what words i should dharma, in describing this unbelievable tragedy. ah, anger, disbelief, grief, all combined. as a speechwriter and a special advisor, you will work very closely with primary mission. so our beach described to us what it was like to have that kind of relationship. what, what it was like to work with a man like sions whopping mr. arbor, especially when he came back in office. the 2nd time after recovering from his long illness, spoke also to him, colitis was very much a determined, conviction. politician. determined to give clearly defined goals for japan's future,

both in economy and it's sir strategic. i'm direction, it's been extremely rewarding. i have to say to work with such an individual whose calm pass, morrow can pass, is very much unshakable and dumb. are determined. we heard from our correspondent tony chang describing the the shock that many japanese of course feeling with regard to this not a great deal of the press coverage with regard to sion. so abby, in the aftermath of his assassination has been extremely positive, but there were certain controversial aspects want though he introduced her a security act which state secrets act, which meant elements of whistle blowing. war became illegal and of course i been nomics was ad laterally criticized for not having the impact of the he had hoped.

how do you think japanese and modern day japan will regard since will abby history is going to be much, much kinder than the assumptions and assessments that you have just described and introduced hey chrissy bill with which you couldn't give and take sensitive intelligence from other nations such as the u. k. franz, australia, the united states, without japan's security bill, the shins roberts spent so much amount of his political capital. you couldn't build an adequate amount of deterrence as against japan's neighbors, russia, north korea, china, why should take into consideration this country is faced with those 3 on democratic nuclear power? i've been nomics has succeeded in giving much,

much more jobs to the young. if you ask men and women walking in the streets in their twenties and thirties, the approval rating for scenes, a lobby is going to be about 70 percent. unlike among baby boomer generation whose vested interests have been rather under criticism from marsh in july. but i want to ask you about his his start showing his position on the world stage. he was very prominent as a global figure. how do you think he changed japan's image if you like, but also its influence on the world stage are started in prime minister malcolm turnbull and scott morrison both called the she's a lot, a visionary leader and the mentor. now, under mowdy wrote

a beautiful euroleague urology about change ave, who? no more. because his soulmate she, the lobby has built very good rapport, not only with donald trump, but also 3 successive presidents of the united states. to prime ministers of india, 3 prime ministers of the u. k. so he's focused attention on the big picture sort of issues has or, and reputation from among his g 7 colleagues. i'd have to say tom, hey tom, good. she's so we appreciate you being with us and just giving us the benefit of your insight. thank you very much. indeed. thank you. molly's military says it's arrested nearly 50 people. it says, are soldiers from ivory coast who been operating in the country illegally and accusing them of being mercenaries. the men were detained after arriving in the

capitol. comical un spokesman says they were hired by a private company. the provides logistic support to its peacekeeping. mention attentions have risen between molly's transitional government and the un. last month molly said it wouldn't authorize the un mission to investigate accusations of rights abuses while nicholas hack is joining us live now from docker. what morrow and an explanation to we have for what's been happening? but we've had this announcement made by commander maya, member of the military genta just yesterday saying that these are ivory and soldiers that are in fact mercenaries. there's an investigation taking place there being held. and one of the camps inside the capitol tamika. but this all started on sunday where 2 planes from this company called this a hell aviation service, which is a company that supports some of the un contingent missions in, in molly landed 2 planes, one containing 49 i wore in soldiers,

the other full of guns and equipments of the soldiers and when they were asked by custom officers what they were doing here, some of the soldiers saying that there were plumbers electricians. and that's not a surprise because remember, these are soldiers from the ivory enforces of their hair here to support at the logistics of the german contingency that's in bama co there. so to support the barracks, to maintain their quarters. so so surprised that there electricians are plumbers. but what's interesting here is the reaction from the marine latigion to that straight away arrested. them took them into custody. that shows you the level of nervousness that we have from the malin authorities there. and let's remember they took over in a qu last june, and ever since they have been seeking to just aside their qu, and meanwhile, the security situation has deteriorated dramatically. and so there's a sense among the 1000000 june that,

that there's threats to their authority. and that's why we've seen this arrest. let's talk about the situation in the context of the relationship between molly on the united nations. as i mentioned, this is coming at a time when, when relations, i've not been particularly good between either organizations. just give us a better description about why what the background is to this. oh, we have to remember this in the 1st time that we've seen them all in a genta throw out some soldiers in the country earlier this year. they throughout the danish contingency saying that there was no agreement between them, the authority of amaco and these armies. and it's interesting to note that there was an agreement between the ivr in government and the molina authorities, but that agreement dates from 2019. so what's happening now is that's the molina authority is putting into question any of those agreements that were signed privacy to when they came to power. there's also this growing insecurity that i mentioned,

and this is the context that we have to keep in mind is that there's mounting attacks from arm groups that are inside of molly that are now targeting coastal countries such as ivory coast. and so we've seen the west african body echo us led by the i voice president, president watchtower, calling for bama co to return to a civilian a rule to, to organize elections as quick as possible. why? because if there is a gen type in place in bama co, that makes it very difficult for neighboring regional forces to be involved. and to support that, what, what they see as an illegitimate government trying to attack or trying to a trying to regain control of their country. so there's a regional context to what we're seeing right now. it almost feels like these. i vor in soldiers, are taken hostage by the military gentile by miko. in this diplomatic play between

molly and its neighboring countries. nicholas hoc talking to us from duck on nicholas. thank you very much indeed. or the euros of approaching parity with the u . s. dollar. that's the lowest valuation of europe's currency since 2002 is being driven by fears of a global recession. investors are anxious of a poor growth across the eurozone under fears for the blocks energy supply. with russia threatening to further reduce gas flows. the speaker of shall anchors, parliament says a new president will be chosen next week. after negotiations to form a new unity government. it follows unprecedented protests. were so tens of thousands of people strong. the residences of the president and the prime minister both of agreed to resign enough. hernandez reports from colombo distance warbler and keep political landmarks on saturday. said they're staying till the president and prime minister resign. thousands of others are streaming in to visit. the

won't be easy. and there are warnings that it shouldn't take too long. the central bank governor has said that there has to be political stability very quickly in order to have the international community, the international monetary fund with whom negotiations are taking place in order to ensure that that support comes in and go against the president and his government has been building for months. the lack of fuel has had a major impact on people's lives. on monday, a few fuel stations receive new supplies. for 5 days we have to wait for the queue, but they're giving $1500.00 for the bikes. that means 3 leaders really there's not enough for us. we are going to put your service. that is only for one daisy news, it's enough. as negotiations continue about a peaceful transition of our people are hoping this brings them some relief. benign,

fernandez al jazeera palumbo was that bus and joining us now from colombo step took us through who's in the running for the leadership. and we know for the existing leaders are well, that's a $1000000.00 question. many people here who are coming to the presidential residency want to know there are a lot of rumors. there are some reports that, that most of the box up family are trying to flee to country. that was a report that the form of the finance minister back up oxide, brother of the president's, was basically chased away from the airport. what happened, according to these reports, is that immigration officers just simply refused to stamp his passport. and then he went to the, the other part of the airport. we're a normal citizen to go and then the us to chase out and is now his whereabouts are known about the presidents are also similar rumors. there's also an unconfirmed

report that he would be near the airport also trying to flee the destination. what is that could be due by but the same thing probably could have happened that immigration officers refused to stamp his fast for what also is happening at the same time. is that from parents the international, a big international anti corruption? watch doc has filed a report a case at the supreme court basically also asking for a ban, a departure ban off members of the raja parks or family. so that might explain why they're in such a hurry to leave the country, but the exact whereabouts and that's a real frustration of people here at his residency. off the president are officially unknown. the effect to officially resign tomorrow is also rumored that the latter has already been signed by him, dated by the 13th of july to morrow. but we all have to see if he's going to say something to the public. that's something really people here really would want to

see before he leaves. yeah, let me ask you about that stuff. i mean, have any of these resignations calmed any of the anger that we've seen amongst the protesters over the last few days? well the mood at the moment and i will show you around a bit is quite happy and victorious. people tell you which que i've seen the queue of hundreds of me just outside of the rest, the residency here of the president there, here at his fitness room. people have been found using these instruments. you see the door is broken but, and it's also locked with people also having here for one of the main attractions at the palace, which is his swimming pool. we've seen, of course, the images of people jumping in and having fun here at the moment the pool is empty because i don't think the water is appealing at the moment for people to jump in. but everyone wants to see if they want to see where the president was living,

where his family was enjoying their lives. i'm, as you are asking, is this going to change anything? of course, people are really worried that it's going to just be a change of seats. the opposition leader is also been mentioned as a possible successor to the president, maybe the speaker, i'll follow him and, but what people want to see is a real change. that's what they're telling me. they want the money to be returned. that's been stolen by the roger parks or family. they want real corruption investigations. they want a real change. so the main question of course, is going to be what will happen after tomorrow when the president is officially resigning, as everyone here hopes and a new president is announced to be installed next wednesday. what will happen after that? that's the main question stuff. thank you very much indeed, said boss until he goes from columbus. tamara had on the news r, including ukraine, says it's destroyed

a russian ammunition dep hole in the southern region of hassle. as under moscow's control. us president joe biting says his country is a wash with weapons of war as he calls for restrictions on assault weapons. and later in sports, we're going to hear from garris bale and his major plans to make a mock in the united states. you couldn't afford to say they've destroyed a russian military. ammunition depot in the southern city of nova cova cuts on region near by a residential buildings have also been damaged. keith is called on civilians to leave parts of the region as it plans to recapture some areas last to moscow. the head of police and keep says, all allegations of war crimes committed by russia in the ukraine will be fully investigated. onto another top told al jazeera police are sharing all information gathered with international prosecutors. alan fisher reports from mid oscar were

investigators uncovered a mass grave last month. they are the almost forgotten victims of the early days of the war. and ukraine. you haven't. wasik has kept watch as they stand in an anonymous freezer van in an anonymous car park. in this unit alone, 12 bodies still not identified, still not claimed by their loved ones. with us after pickle her, we would like to buy these people. it is a long time they have been lying here more than 3 months. there is a common key and they are sucked. they cannot, i didn't find the body simply by looking of them. many people left for other countries. so they sneaked him. so lying here on claim in other units near by 30 soldiers and another 140 other civilians, some recovered from deep in a nearby forest. the russians built their positions in this wood facing towards cave when they were forced to withdraw. that's when investigators moved in and the

phone one mass grave and they think around here, there will be many more just last month, ukrainian forensic teams phoned the site and started gathering evidence. we pulled 7 bodies from a tiny grave, each victim shot in the head. and dumped their crime being meal and old enough to fight against the russians. even wasik was there that day, helping out, watching the groan give up its secrets on his little man. at the moment asleep. okay, but when i examined the body, so children didn't, even though they are not my children, and i do have 2 children. it's horrible because even is alcohol, i can get it out of my mind for quality. those dimensions. from each victim, they've taken dna one day, the family might claim them. give them a proper burial. the man heading the police investigation into what happened, told me no matter how difficult these crimes must be investigated, took a puzzled rebel are worth it. this should be important, not just ukrainians,

but to the whole international community. this is very important, the same as the investigations into what happened during world war 2. we must investigate the army of the russian federation, the army commanders. this message should be delivered. the bodies will sit for a few more weeks, then they will be quietly buried. but for now they sit silent. witnesses in an investigation into war crimes and murder. alan fisher al jazeera murat skirt. you cream, 3 foreigners captured while fighting for ukraine are going to hear the result of that appeal against a death sentence within a month. last month, the russian back separatists caughtington. yes, find them guilty of taking action towards a violent overthrow of power. ukraine and its allies to the men of prisoners of war and their types to protection under the geneva convention. with jeffrey robinson's former un judge and the 1st president of his war crimes caught in sierra leone. and he's joining us live from london. very good to have you with us. i thank you very

much. indeed. can you explain to us what the, the coverage is from the geneva convention when it comes to cases like this? well, let's close prisoners of war. that means. ready court fighting for and not be opposing army must be treated humanely. they cannot be executed unless they committed, specifically crime. now these 2 english were merely members of the ukrainian army, and this court, legitimate court in which russia is responsible because the lord i have sent them to death and they will be more judges in a month who can confirm that sentence. and if they do, if they execute, that will be a, so

a war crime for which the judges and the prosecutors will be guilty. and of course, in breaking law or in, but here sure. a prize in the concrete in the world. this is an act of murder and nice judges by passing the day would be a deal and the banking murder. so if they ever venture to a country with bridges floor, they will find themselves arrested in try or aiding and abetting these men. ready not mercer is mercenary, has a very narrow definition. you got to show that the man who has fired, he need the money and was getting much more than the regular soldiers that ever be shown. these people volunteered because they were free and were sympathetic to the ukrainian cause,

as most people are because they read the legitimately invaded by russia. and now russia is murdered, prisoners of war and back use. if he goes ahead and the one who won't rush you shoot, stop, it gets caught in the steep through interest in her reputation. it should, it would be a terrible crime. so hopefully he said to be seen and these men's conviction will be a return. they'll be treated like other ukrainian soldiers. you've joined us on several occasions previous things when we've discussed the nature of, of the law when it comes to situations like this in conflict zones. and in particular, the application of the geneva convention. it appears from my point of view as an outsider. it appears that the geneva convention is a very patchy application and is very open to interpretation and misinterpretation . we see

a difference between say that even the way these men are being treated compared to the way that fighters, for example, were taken from afghanistan when the, by the us and put in to guantanamo bay. they that is there a, i know, paternity or should there be an opportunity to revisit with the constant to what constitutes the geneva convention. and actually finally try to establish a range of rules and laws that will actually hold every country in the world to a single purpose. will lead shouldn't be the case. that was the idea. in 1949, when the company, 1st loss of geneva conventions were published and he was the or they would stablish may treatment at least for prisoners of war. however, there were gaps and uncertainties, and in 1977 to supplementary conventions were

agreed and they made quite clear that you cannot execute people new clay mercenaries, but people who are fighting and had surrendered in from an opposing army. and i think one of the problem is that the 977 convention says sometimes and the unclear 949 conventions. i heard a good i did yours, but i think the position as fire is nice can said is very clear. jeff robinson, as always, we appreciate your opinion in this. thank you very much indeed. so thank you. the answer to cancel is such a vote in the coming hours and a draft resolution to extend a deliveries to rebel held area in northwest syria. permission for cross border shipments expired on monday. after attempts to renew it were vetoed by russia.

candidates are in the running after transport. secretary grant shops dropped his bid support front runner. sure. she soon i called paul brennan is in london for us . okay. who are the contenders pole? well, let's look at the main content. richie soon act because he has been opening his official campaign in the last hour in central london that he's waited a while to do it, but is not out of time. the closing time for nominations is at 17 g m. t this afternoon. now risha soon actually showed prat, frankly why he's the front runner. it was a clever address to the party faithful. he talked about needing to have a grown up conversation about where the conservatives are and where they're going. he also praised boris johnson and said he was the most remarkable man that we should soon i could ever met. and i think that goes to richie sooner, recognizing that in certain quarters of the conservative party, boris johnson remains rather popular. so he's, he's hedging his bet. somewhat very,

she sooner the other thing that he spoke about at length in that news conference that he's just given is the fact that while other candidates are adamant, that they will immediately start cutting taxes. if they became prime minister, he is against the kind of fairy tales. as he put it. he said that needed to be honesty and responsibility, not fairy tales. and he did say he had traditional conservative values that is addressing of the criticism that he's had, which is by putting up taxes and the way that he has us, chancellor. and by expanding furlow schemes, for example, and increasing the size of the state during the pandemic, those were kind of not really traditional conservative things to do. but he's emphasizing that actually he does have consider traditional conservative values. so he's putting his flag in ground with that now. richness inaccurate is by far and away the most popular amongst conservative m. p. 's. but another name that i think we need to watch from the news perspective is

a one penny more that because according to a survey of conservative members in the wider country done by the website, conservative home, she is the most popular among conservative members. so yeah, and wishes soon, acquisition came 3rd in that pole. so there's a real battle that's going to take place in the, in this leadership contest. yeah. the opposition labor part. he's got some interesting timing and all of this because his intending to put forward a vote of no confidence talk us through what that all means. essentially the labor party say it's firstly quite wrong that forrest johnson should be allowed to sit in number 10 downing street for the next 8 weeks, while the conservative sorts out who is to replace him because he still pulling the leaves of power, especially given the fact that the reason why he was forced to resign was because of his on truthfulness and is lack of character. and so they're not happy about that. and they're also pointing out and,

and highlighting through this no confidence vote. the fact that the wider public, there are some 47000000 people are eligible to vote in the u. k. but they don't get a vote on who is the next prime minister because only conservative m p 's in parliament and the $100000.00. so conservative paid of party members in the country who actually get to decide who the next leader of the country should be. so labor are going to table this vote of no confidence. they vote itself will likely take place on wednesday. i think it's gonna be an uphill struggle for labor to actually win that vote. nevertheless, it, it does highlight the point, is that the labor trying to make paul, thank you very much. the po brennan live for us in london. well, the 1st full color image has been released from the largest and most powerful observatory ever sent into orbit. the picture taken by the james web web space telescope is brimming with distant galaxies and stars is believe,

some of them were formed soon after the big bang. that's 13 point. 8000000000 years ago. nasa says it's the deepest look into the cosmos ever capture. will francisco diego, a lecturer at the department of physics and astronomy at university college london, and he is joining us from there now. thank you very much. indeed for being with us . i understand you've had a chance to look at the picture. what do you think of it? yes, i have it here in front of me. oh, i don't know how to express the feelings and knowing what this project has been a long decades. is a fascinating conclusion, but this thought the science now, it is amazing. i mean, the number of galaxies we see here. you see a few stars which are characterized by these many bright objects of spikes. and those are reviewed by the optics of the telescope, being a mirror made out of that component. but the other, all the other object vast majority out of alex's and what, what was he here, he saw, but i thought in the very, very center of the image which is a galaxy nearby galaxy,

relatively on the sandal field that we see here was also image by the hubble space telescope, so we can compare like, with like, so these galaxy, the cent 30 spot cluster of galaxies that we see around smaller galaxies, are they all white? and they have a lot of mass. they have a lot of mass. it is a local back matter around this cluster, as well as the last 13, the universe pick up the matter on all these. well, this is an enormous amount of gravity. and that the gravity well uses a distortion of light of the objects which are behind in the far, far background, which are the galaxies that we seen the picture. so these background galaxies, you can see them very clearly, are around like, got like a consent lic circles. so modeling has been cutting, distorted in concept we seek, was by the light, the gravity, your visa, a visa, foreground galaxy cluster. so this is how can i be patient my names, but this caller going to be patient lens. it appears in the hobble image as well.

but here is far more beetle. and we see far, many more galaxies as well. so the, that effect of the gravitational lanes is to make the galaxies the objects behind these cluster. but i think so you can see them, we couldn't see them with the hubble because he's not powerful enough. but in this case, yes, we are going even deeper. a, to see galaxies that emerge and not exactly from the bank. we are talking of fuel hungry media and yourself. that would be but, but the still, the side of the farthest on the oldest galaxies, that we have detected so far. it is fascinating and this is just the 1st image. you know, if you are, we're sake up and go to college to, to run a big lecture. theatre will, of people, when we're going to expect a live broadcast from nasa. we're the only other pictures i'm going to be released today to the public. a fascinating they are made major, my son in the history of science. i'm really getting a sense of just having, citing this is for people in, in the scientific community. but i, i understand also what you're saying about this being

a significant technical achievement. but you did mention this is the point of which the science begins. tell us what that would entail and what that will be able to tell us. and how we will benefit from it. we are lannie. uh, as humans we are, we have cordial city and they won't be stay full of achievements without being a consequence, so forth while following that. but you'll see a lot of the benefits that we have to bay are the result of that could be also be, which is what the, what like science i in this case we are now dealing with a very or teaching of the university already. jonas on mesquite weight galaxy galaxies, the very 1st stars i'm the space telescope will be sized hoss. i lie there seat deal publications not on the galaxy, some cosmetology. he can explore what example the formation of stars in our own milky way galaxy on. you know that alex is on the formation of solar systems. we know now that they're not the threat,

literally billions of solar systems in our own galaxy. we would explore with space telescope like easy james wet wet, went exploring more detail, the formation of losolsi stance. possibilities oh ha, ah correct that i seem to be on the sphere. so extra solar planets who see they got any chicken jobs for right. like got wet walker, we know that he's working some little sunset but, but he oxygen, methane or that chemicals under space telescope is going to do that. so i don't, you know, life of any port them pop back, but by modern science as well. so we expect all of these appliances in the next few months is going to be fascinating. on the since a sicily, hope that the pictures are going to see later on in the next few hours are just as exciting as this one. clearly is. francisco, diego, thank you very much. indeed for your time sir. the small pacific island nation of cannabis has withdrawn from a crucial fiji based regional block. it says micronesia countries have been

sidelined in the leadership of the pacific islands forum. the summit comes as estrella new zealand and the u. s. are trying to push back against china's growing influence and the region. beijing signed a security packed with a nearby solomon islands in april. white and hay has more from fuji's capital suva . this meeting of the pacific islands form is seen as is perhaps the most important one and a very long time. partly because it's the 1st time that the leaders have been able to come together face to face to meet in 3 years because of the curve at 19 pandemic. and also it's crucial because of all those. dia geopolitical tensions that are ongoing at the moment. and then we have kid abbas and their decision to withdraw seemingly at the last minute. but this is a problem that's been going on for a long time. in fact, we go back to the beginning of last year when the 5 micronesia countries that are members of the pacific islands form including kit abbas signal that they were going to leave this pacific islands grouping for a couple of reasons. but mainly because they were unhappy with that election

process that took place to find a new secretary general of the pacific islands forum. they felt that there was an, an agreement in place that would allow for the new leader to come from one of those micronesia countries. instead, after a hotly contested vote, i had went to henry puna of the cook island so that clearly that is an issue that has been bubbling away for the last, almost 2 years. the vice president says he determines a bon assault weapons that are frequently being used in mass shootings. joe biden says the u. s. is a wash in weapons of war. it was speaking at an event, highlighting a new cross party law aimed at reducing gun violence. legislation gradually softens requirements for young people to buy firearms with a high number of mass shootings in the u. s. this year has prompted several states including new jersey to add new restrictive gun laws. it's accused the federal government of acting to slowly cuba,

elizondo reports from jersey city. the most recent mass shootings in the united states have renewed calls for gun control in america. but it's a complicated issue, in part because each of the 50 states has freedom to enact gun laws as they see fit . making the u. s. a nation of a myriad of often disjointed firearm laws ever state can do what they want within the fixed parameters of the constitution, federal law. that's, that is the system. and every state really has the incentive to do something different within reason because every state truly is different. but there's stronger laws really mean less gun violence here in the state of new jersey. the answer is yes. according to the gifford law center, to reduce gun violence, new jersey has the 2nd strictest gun laws anywhere in the united states, and also has some of the lowest gun death rates. even still governor phil murphy

signed 7 new bills into law that tightened the states already stringent gun regulations. new jersey hes one of the nation's lowest rates of gun violence and gun death. there was a reason for that. it is because we are among the leaders in guns safety state officials are bracing for as many as 200000 new gun permit applications before the new laws go into effect. the challenge with gun policy in america can also be seen in new jersey because of its neighboring state pennsylvania, which has much looser gun policy. guns can easily cross state lines while now new jersey can do our best to kind of protect our communities with these really great common sense one gun legislation. unfortunately, we're susceptible because there are places that people can obtain more freely in neighboring new york. the governor recently announced any one applying for

a new gun permit will also have to list their social media accounts. the stronger the gun laws, the lower the gun death rate. but the issue is more complicated than people on either side of the gun debate. often like to admit gabriel's ando algiers, eda, jersey city, new jersey is the 1st anniversary of nationwide anti government protests in cuba, demanding social and economic reforms. police and special forces have been patrolling the streets of havana keepers. as the u. s. was behind last year's demonstration, the largest, the island has seen since fidel castro took power in the 1950s. a human rights watch report has found the government committed, systematic human rights violations in response to the massive protests. i'm going to have been on it today. the people would demonstrate again, but people here are terrified of the repression of the uh, people in prison. something fishy. uh huh. it is quite difficult and quite sad. what happened. i hope it won't happen again to day all over again. so far everything is calm. i'm going to work now, but his track and field star mo,

follows revealed he was a victim of child trafficking. he says was smuggled into the u. k. from jew booty as a 9 year old and forced to work as a domestic servant before time olympic gold medalist. and 6 time world champion says he was given the name mohammed fata by the woman who took him from his family . he says his real name is husayn optic honey. sports. coming up after the break, i will tiger woods, college quit softer this week's open championship. is fellow professionals. have their say ah

ah. ah. safe going home and then international anti corruption excellence award boat. now for your hero o

a sport and he has jammah. thank you. robert. tiger woods will need to step closer to jack nicklaus, his 18 major titles, if he can win this week's open championship. despite fitness concerns, woods insist seems ready to contend us and foundries. the 15 time major champion says he's feeling good, but pacing himself as he continues to work his way back from severe leg injuries suffered in a car accident which won this tournament a 3 times and took part in a celebration event with other former winners on monday. 46 year old may not be in peak physical condition that it's not a pros can't see him stopping anytime soon. firing done. megan, just look in his eyes. he's not done once. he gets a 100 percent healthy he'll. he's got a few years left. if i count him out, his determination is of the church and that drives him even more and even the even pushed himself through the pain barrier, pushes him even more. he's put in the work he,

he believes he's going to go out and play great. you know, comes to a major, he's proved that you know, his fair, someone, when he's in the haunt problem with tight woods, is he, he's, he's not going to be playing for 10 spots. and if he's in 20th spot, it's not going to motivate him. and he needs a little bit of a drain and a push to, to overcome the physicality of, of taking support. i'm not letting him retire, no chance, just knowing his nature, i don't see him quitting ever. i think they'll have to be run over by some kind of a truck to be to chris. i don't, i don't think it'll happen. so i've never thought it was very smart thing to do to ever doubt him. and so i see him continuing to find the places he can play and compete in this be one of them. so he has everything that's up here still there. and that's a huge part of playing these links courses. never joke of it. just hoping australia will change his coven 19 vaccination rules to allow him to play. next is australian, open savvy,

and has been celebrating with home funds in 3rd grade after winning his 7th wouldn't title. on sunday. the 21 time grand slam champion he received to get the crew with 19. jeff was reported from australia in january because all of his nation faces and he won't be able to compete at the u. s. hyphen next month. because you know, women's champion elaina, reebok, and iran that can cause exam after securing her grandson. title the russian born at 23 year old and switched nationalities 4 years ago and is the 1st to counteract when of a major single tournament. she beach in the, in the, in the final england have books that place in the quarter finals of the women's juris off a rack or performance against norway. they want a nail that goes with school in the 1st that might need to be in one goal. when you need all time england gossling records of $53.00 and

a half hours junglin became seen for the last a split. that result was also sealed northern they suffered 2nd straight. and this time, at the hands of austria going down to form around madrid forward a guard bell says he wants to make a mark on major league soccer in the united states. the wireless captain was officially unveiled by his new club, los angeles, f. c. and is able to be that long term is the 1st time buy will play in the league outside europe on the back of winning 5 champions. the titles with rail i don't think anyone now sees it as a retirement league. it's really a league that is physical, it's demand in like we're saying the weather change is a difficult to travel difficult, but it's something that's really exciting to to play in front of fans like $5052.00 is what you play football for. as you had malaria,

a huge revelation from 4th. i'm limping champion, my fara, admitting he was a victim of child trafficking, the british run, it says he was smuggled into the u. k as a 9 year old and forced to work as a domestic sevens. he says he was given his name by those who took him from to b. c. and his real name is who saying update him. the revelation as part of a b, b. c documentary. despite what i've said in the past, my parents never lived in the u. k. when i was for my dad was killed in a civil war. you know, as a family we were torn apart. i was separated from my mother. and finally, here's something we don't see very often in major league baseball. and inside the pog, i run texas rangers rookie, josh smith made the most of the fielding arrest or few anti when he saw his opportunity for his bus. i run in the big leagues

a world where do i that how the ranges beat, the oakland athletics. 10. right down the middle. that is all what you'll sport for me. i'll have more for you later. actually real general. thank you very much indeed . our money. sorry. it is going to be here in a couple of minutes with more on all the stores. don't care about side august, dina dot com on rollback to buy. ah, i love hello. mission. why is one on one? the how do you to visit what i will cancel the philistine with the, from the special for yeah, we're not in about the for say yet a can of little sob. is it done?

well, i can get to how to is the called the topics here. how that if awesome, thought not only vocal of coffee and like in the own up, have on my gun a on, in that a fee. alida is like a month to help audi. i mean, for the 2nd law in the, i feel believe, why did i can't even fucking the book. ah frank assessments. it sounds like you don't expect anything to change the problem in lebanon. it's actually structural lebanon needs and use social contract for it to solve this problem. in depth analysis of the days global headlines inside story on al jazeera,
