1:01 am
ah. the sound of foot, iraq's parliament supporters of mac cadell saw the remain camped inside the building as rival demonstrates is gathered early any a bye ah hello, i'm mary. i'm to mozy in london. you're watching al jazeera also coming up on the program. thousands of tons of porn leave ukraine's ports of odessa, the fuss congo vessel to set sail under a un broke a deal with russia. speculation us house b can nancy pelosi is to have asia will include a stop over in taiwan. china, once a visit will have consequences. and our exclusive report from nigeria is on force is cranked down on illegal oil refineries to save billions of dollars in lost revenue.
1:02 am
ah. in breaking news, this our al qaeda leda. i'm and also a harry is believed to have been killed in u. s. drawn strike in afghanistan on sunday. this according to u. s. media reports alger there is jabber town soon as monitoring reaction from washington d. c. any more information? she have officially, the white house is only saying that there was a counter terrorism operation against a significant aisle kite a target in afghanistan. the operation was successful and there were no civilian casualties. but yes, as, as you reported, it's now been widely, widely reported about is i'm and i was, i wired the, the leader of all kind of the man who succeeded osama bin loudon, in june of 2011 the right hand man of a someone but love him on 911 america's most, one to so we expect joe biden,
1:03 am
the us president to address the nation in about an hour and a half time from the white house to confirm that i'm and i was already, has been, has been killed in a drain strike. what's interesting is some of the other details that have been slipping out, but this occurred, as you said in cobble, the residence in cobble. and that does jive with some innovation we've been receiving over the last few months that al qaeda had been relatively comfortable in cobble over the last few months. this would suggest that, you know, for all of the, the man homes that have been under way, once again, it would appear that the leader archive is in, is in the, it's in cobble is in the city and living relatively comfortably. in fact, there was a un report which we now or referring to which came out in july which maybe we didn't give too much credence to at the time. but we're saying is actually a guide or was gaining some strength in enough out of stone. since, since the u. s. withdrawal and may become a threat in the us point of view in the long term at least. but there have been reports that are kind of leaders have been communicating freely over the last few
1:04 am
months. and certainly if it is, if it is, i was already who has been killed in a house in cobble on sunday. that would suggest a certain level of comfort at the very least. but we expect confirmation in an hour and a half from the white house, from the president. how much of the victory would this be for president joe biden, in on his administration at a time when they've not been doing so well in, in poll that domestically? it's certainly call her because it's going to knock at least nancy pelosi visit to taiwan or the headlines i would imagine. i think you were about to start talking about, which is right now, a huge headache for the administration and, and apparently certainly behind the scenes we had was not something that the bye didn't ministration necessarily wanted. nancy place to do y, pick another fight with a nuclear arms adversary. now, when you get to radically, the administration has an up one of the plates with russia, but certainly it did seem like foreign policy was getting ahead of joe biden with
1:05 am
policies. but that it didn't really to some questions about how much control he was having over foreign policy, which in the end is, is the purview of f, the white house that certainly will allow him to gain some more momentum in the foreign policy arena. because i suppose one of the features or characteristics of his administration so far is that foreign policy, particularly in terms of the middle east, has not been one of his priorities. not been one of his priorities. another leave after his visit to the middle east, and certainly has been as cool as close to all hudson close to many others where it just seemed that joe biden, for all the talk on the campaign trail. when he was facing donald trump, he said that he would return to a new moral foreign policy. that the, the, the old trump ways of just going for arms deals without the wind and it goes up to that not to be true. it's not seen that job by will do anything. it would appear
1:06 am
very much in the old, the old truck when it comes to israel and saudi arabia and others. but then yeah, this, this again at least gives jo by the opportunity to appear as the resolute commander in chief, still keeping america safe. thank you very much. every can see in washington. so come on bahati as director as he analytical development at new lines institute for should strategy and policy. he joins us now from washington. what are your initial thoughts in reactions? this is the death of the man who is a sullivan logins, deputy aimen, as ella harry in afghanistan. so maria, mom, there are a couple of things that are noteworthy right off the bat. number one is the timing . ah, we're talking about a, you know, a time when the u. s. and the taliban regime are negotiating the release of funds that are frozen in american accounts that are the taliban are trying to get access
1:07 am
to. so i find the timing. very, very interesting to say the least for that reason alone. second of all, i find it odd that and obviously we don't know this, this hasn't been confirmed. but the reports that we're getting is that this strike took place somewhere in the afghan capital. aah! at least that's what i've see. and if that is true, that is an odd location for someone like i'm in a library, who's the most wanted among al qaeda. i used the number 22, ben lawton, and since his death has been leading the organization. and so it seems to me that he probably recently relocated from some safe house and that you know, for many years a lot of us have believed including myself that he was somewhere in pakistan like bin laden himself. and so, yes, so he was not only in afghanistan when he's perhaps, believe to be in pakistan,
1:08 am
but he was in the nation's capital. now, what does that suggest about the the security situation in kabul and pops the sort of vacuum or back all the atmosphere that, that enabled him to, to be present into it presumably continue with his activities and operations. i mean, that is huge in the sense that, that shows a sense of confidence on the part of the, of the, the leader that he could actually live in cobble because the taliban regime came to power. i don't know. and i don't think anyone knows when exactly he might relocated from his height out wherever that may be on both on either side of the african box on the border. ah, but that shows that he was confident that he would remain safe because this is a man that has been below the radar for years and years,
1:09 am
especially after he you know, saw that the us forces were able to eliminate his former boss. sullivan, lawton, so for him to do that, that shows that he had some confidence and he, that he was enabled to relocate to a, you know, of all places the african capital. and that shows that, you know, of the, at least, you know, the general environment is conducive for terrorist organizations under the taliban regime. but at the same time it would be interesting to know and find out, ah, how the u. s. government was able to get the intelligence on his whereabouts and considering that we pulled out the united states last august. it would seem that this intelligence would have to come from within tolerable on the you know, elements. so someone from within the taliban, i would have to speculate likely,
1:10 am
gave his locations up. and so does this mean that we are likely to see further drug strikes on afghan territory? officially the taliban government opposes strikes like this inside the country. but is that the official line because they themselves a facing a very difficult secure situation. they're struggling to deal with groups like i feel i s k p and afghan is don, will we see this unofficial relationship then intelligence information sharing between elements of the taliban and the us administration in order to eliminate these threats? the so yes, the short answer is yes. and that's why i, you know, initially when we didn't know that the winery was the, the h v t that had been eliminated. in this particular operation over the weekend, i was speculating. maybe the h we t was from i s k p and isis senior leader. because the taliban have an interest in
1:11 am
seeing isis weakened because it's a primary challenger, but not zoe. so i re, is someone who's been an ally of the taliban for very, very long, which is why this scenario is all the more interesting it would be. it would make complete sense if the taliban, i gave up officially, or unofficially. no intel on the where abouts of an isis leader. but in the cases though, i hurry, it becomes far more complicated. but i think that the taliban are in a bind to where they realize that they can't continue the govern unless they cooperate with the united states. and provide the united states with something that then washington can reciprocate on. so i think that will probably, you know, this was the winery and maybe there'll be other alti, the leaders that we will, ah, you know,
1:12 am
get intelligence about. but i think that we can expect the taliban to have this very weird and it's very unusual. even. you know, i'm explaining it is, is i find it weird to be are we in counterterrorism cooperation with those were themselves, you know, enemies not too long ago. i mean that's, that's the part that i'm finding, finding very interesting. now, what kind of movement a few questions and what kind of movement will his successor inherit? and we could to speak to the benefits of i sell. i think it will be to the benefit of isis, but then, you know, i'd like to carry out that by saying that, you know, for all intents and purposes, isis had eclipsed either a long time ago. ah. but in this theater in this, you know, offline is done bucks on theater. it would seem that the center of gravity of trans national job ism would shift to ice. so because you know, this is a very fluid,
1:13 am
it battle space. and fighters are sort of moving through it through different organizations. so with the watery, eliminated that leaves very few people who command the kind of respect that is why re did under al qaeda. so this is a severe blow to whatever remained of all kinds. but it does improve the, the recruitment ability of isis. so there's a lot of hard work up ahead in order to deal with the threat can run the hardy. thank you very much. ah, several months of political instability and indecision in baghdad of now culminated in a stand off in and around the country's parliament. thousands of protest as a still camped inside supporters of politician mac tuttle sander refusing to leave
1:14 am
until various change on monday protest as opposed to saw that sandra then moved in to stake their own position in the area. they are members of a group called a coordination framework. they set up company the 14th of july, bridge staging, a counter protest of one happening inside parliament grounds. the 2 demonstrations are part of a wider political struggle unfolding in iraq. so other one, the most seats in elections last year, but has been unable to form a government that excludes his rivals the alliance. that opposes him wants mohammed a sudan need to be the next prime minister. while the group includes iran allied, deb politicians and iran trained paramilitary groups, not all members of back bite are on iraq now has gone more than 9 months without a new government is, is adding to the countries dysfunction, despite massive oil wealth, ordinary people that are suffering from regular power and water cost,
1:15 am
despite 49 degree heat, with 2400000 people in need of assistance, man would have the wide reports from baghdad. i protestant and counter protests, supporters of iraq's coordination framework approach. iran, she alliance, gather me about that. again, zoom their denouncing what they considered a cooper, raven, she, alida, to the southern and his followers. well, if all other sherry i like to up and of course of it, we're here to regain the legitimacy of the states. institutions as has been violated by the occupational part of the hands of the fortress. yeah, we try to keep it peacefully. ah, what violence robbed it as they headed towards the green soon? forcing security personnel to pull out ah, chanting against kate, take a prime minister must have called me. they accuse him of collaborating with us
1:16 am
solder to remain in power. there are reports of military units with arrival factions being deployed near by to protect the people. so many fear it good gets worse. opposing groups have been intensifying their campaigns and seem to be pushing for a showdown ah, sensitive day a. so the supporters have his day did a sit in the parliament building headed armory, a top leader with the coordination framework, has warned of bloodshed and called for dialog. oh, this is collation, comes against the backdrop of league audio recordings attributed to former prime minister norton mckee, for his heart insulting al solder and his affiliates. the services have requested that a medical recordings be condemned as a pre requisite for dialogue. helena element, we will remain here until our leader, instructors to leave. it's not just a political dispute is rather
1:17 am
a revolution against decays of corruption or oppression. the conflict over forming a government started here among glo makers months ago. but these protest her say they not only follow their leaders, but they also want to change the whole political system. of the wide alga 0 was ada aaliyah is a former legal advisor to the united nation focusing on constitutional parliamentary and judicial form in iraq. he says, a negotiated solution will be the most likely conclusion to these protests. while the, the protests, the counter protests were expected to reply and certainly something that you know, any reasonable person would expect to happen in terms of the numbers. also, no great surprises there. the major difference between the chord nation committee, the opponent and the service,
1:18 am
and selves of the success really do have grassroots supports it's. it's really a very broad movement that attracts a lot of people amongst the poor segments of iraq and people. we did volunteer to participate in such as the institutions. whereas the coordination committee really have a lot of trouble bringing up the same numbers of people. and by that, i'm not trying to suggest that one movement or one side is better than the other. they're just very different nature. so the, the size of the us today was not particularly impressive, but that was expected also. so far the most likely outcome is that the, the negotiated solution to this. but still, at this stage, it's very are the days. the images are obviously very dramatic. and we're going to have to wait to see how this plays out. but there's a lot of pressure on everyone's tried to fly and common ground. and to reach a settlement between them. i've heard this address say that they want to engage in
1:19 am
wholesale reform of a political system with a view to engaging something completely radical. but they will surely, you know, sort of, you know, that there's no support or extremely little support in iraq class, the types of changes that are looking for. so if they insist too much on that type of change, then they'll be isolated. for the 1st time since the worn ukraine began a ship filled with corn as illegally left port under a un broker deal struck with russia. millions of tons of grain has been stuck at ukrainian ports for more than 5 months. many hope mondays shipment will help stop an escalating global food crisis. john henderson was in odessa as the ship left port me, this is a ship that could launch a 1000 others. the rezone is the 1st cargo vessel to carry ukrainian grain. through the black seasons, russia invaded on february the 24th. so j a said
