5:11 am
100 percent the right to peaceful protests. some are trying to do sabotaged. there are reports that other groups are trying to influence members of parliament at the vote. next week to elect a new president. we will create environments parliamentarians to express their view independently. less than a week ago, thousands of protesters had stormed and occupied, the leaders, residences, and offices, accusing them of force and lunk, into bankruptcy. after the president left, the crowds had to wickham a single office, demanding his resignation. they were straight with d. a gas people, soap offered to push the departure to leave the country, but wanting to become a single came to whitewash this whole thing. so and he came for 3 months. the situation became bad, bad the worst. you could only go prices and people are dying in the cues, so he's directly responsible. so you have some in the car to weigh less,
5:12 am
spend 3 days waiting for fuel. i'm very happy about roger boxes resignation, but i don't think the next president will be any better whoever this person is going to. we are still standing in queue. you know, i've been living here for 3 days and my mother just brought some food and he is not the only one with a 1000000. i'm going to have been waiting for a bio. it seems like we're getting ready for actual change. many are actually in progress figured out to be right in colombo us so far the say they will seek the immediate extradition of natoya drug lord has been captured by mexican forces. mexico's navy released this footage of raphael kado content, or shortly after his arrest on friday in the state to send a law content was jailed in the 980 for masterminding, the brutal killing of
5:13 am
a us drug enforcement agent. he walked free in 2013 and returned to drug trafficking content or has been on the f. b i as most wanted list with a 20000000 dollar reward offered for capture right by your panel. join us from mexico city monroe. how significant is this capture in the request for extradition? that's right, kim. the arrest over the file got up and it is certainly be seen here in mexico as the most significant drug arrests made in the administration of mexican president of manuel lopez over at or even senior white house adviser on latin america. one. going to sit on twitter late in the afternoon in the afternoon on friday that quote, this is huge. got to keep pedo is what you would consider to be here in mexico. as a classic drug kingpin, he was arrested in the 1980 is incorrect in connection with the torture and the murder of a usb agent. he was sentenced to 40 years in prison. he was released in 2013
5:14 am
under what could be characterized for lack of a better term as questionable legal circumstances. instead of retiring, he returned to the drug trade, making a name for himself in the lower again as a, as a drug kingpin. and in the, in the hours of the afternoon on friday, he was arrested by special forces here in mexico. ready during a raid and is now under the custody of mexicans, special forces awaiting extradition to the united states. kim and separately, the mexican military system, black hawk helicopter has crashed. what do we know about that is? is it at all related? i think many people here in mexico, immediately their mind goes to this somehow being. busy related to, to the capture of another drug trafficker. there certainly certainly would be precedent for that. us officials have offered their condolences to
5:15 am
a 14 of the 15 mexican special forces operatives who were killed in that helicopter crash into the lower. the crash happened at around the same time that the operation was taking place to capture. got or did all we have since spoken with mexican department of defense of the mexican marines to try to get more details about exactly what it is that happened. what we can confirm is that the mexican government does not believe that there was foul play involved. they do believe that that this was in an accident even though they don't know exactly what were the circumstances that led to this helicopter being crashed. but an investigation is under way to determine what exactly was the involvement of the crew on board to capture the federal and what were the circumstances that led to this tragic accident in the state of siena lower here in mexico can follow their ally from next co city, thank you. or you can return now to the breaking news and reports that explosions
5:16 am
have been heard in garza. this of course follows as will be reported rockets being fired from gauze into israel. one of those 2 rockets was intercepted. we can speak not to human side who's on a line from garza city. you know, what more do we know of? yes can. so it's really retaliation on the 2 rockets that where fired from god. so a raid actually 2 rates to really rates were carried on because the strip one aside, a policy inside in the south in western city of garza very, very violent trades were carried on the site. we woke up to the thought of explosions and the sound of, of the air strikes more than 8 rockets actually charge you to that site. another one was targeted in the solvent of the cause of stress. so basically to rate the
5:17 am
very, very violent amount of rockets when launched on, on these 2 sites. more than 13 rockets as a total on the 2 types. you know, do we know anything in terms of injuries that have been sustained casualties or damage to property until now no casualties have been reported at all? it seems that there are no casualties have been reported. these are palestinian military sites. but of course, a lot of material damage has been cold and not just in the area of the sites or the sites themselves, but around the sites because we could see a lot of fire igniting from the sites and lands surrounding it. and mainly there usually agriculture lands. it's also some homes could be
5:18 am
a close to these sites and looking to the intensity of the radio and intensity of the muscles. but where targeted towards the sides. lots of material damage has the code. certainly you want to talk us through the timing of this because as we've been saying on the face, but it appears that it could be some sort of retaliation of the. some rockets were fired from garza in to the southern city or over the southern city of ash cologne. yes, of course. according to adrian, the media to rockets have been charged to have been lunch sorry, from godsa towards ashton, but one was intercepted by the iron door. the other one has a cell or fallen in an empty area during the rates themselves. in daily media reported the 2 other rockets from garza were lunch towards
5:19 am
sacraments or cities of sorry israel, but we have or the shoulder and settlement as israel. but they were not sorry and were not sounded, and they were not intercepted. we have not heard afraid there anything further about these 2 new rockets that israel, the media has reported, or israel military has reported that have been fired again and no retaliation. hearing garza yet has been done to to say anything about them, but it seems until now also in god's i know group has claimed responsibility for the launching of the 1st 2 rockets. nothing, no statement, no group has claimed responsibility or spoken about the reason why these rockets have been launched in the 1st place. you know,
5:20 am
how much of an escalation is this? because i know in the back of everybody's minds, their thinking back to what was it may last year when there was 11 days of fighting, which killed hundreds of palestinians. so. so how much of an escalation is this right now? so usually can, every escalation in godsa has, has started like in by launching rockets, but it's different from the areas that these truck, it's joe target from gods towards israel and use when the, when it is towards the settlement when they are targeted towards key areas that could. 7 also usually be intercepted by our and don't fall your and our role in empty areas. we usually get to retaliation of the targeting of the palestinian military sites to here. and usually material damage more than any
5:21 am
casualties with that to fall or injuries. but when a further escalation is expected to happen, that's when more, more critical areas that are being targeted when rockets from god's lunch towards a city or other israeli cities that would, that kind of ignite an instant escalation between the fighting britson garza and israel as a retaliation, alright, we'll be checking back in with you. no doubt as we get more information on those latest rocket fired off and out there on the phone from gant. libby is that new oil chief has lifted attempt pre back on the countries oil fields and export terminals. the 4th mature, allowed libya's national oil company to avoid contractual obligations due to
