8:16 pm
so keeping a close eye on that one, plenty a shower is rolling in behind. then with those a large thunder head showing up their cross central parts of africa, the southern areas of africa, it is largely dry. once again, a lot of settled weather around, you may see one or 2 showers just creeping into the far south of mozambique for a time. still disappointed, he tried to that eastern side of kenya and also somalia. ah frank assessments, how much support is there at st protest that we've seen in hunting across the rest of the country? the street movement has been very good. that's happening into the co consent people across the country, informed opinions we will say more of these events. what is happening is that climate change it making them work in depth analysis of the days global headlines draw, he is credited by someone really restoring it least credibility. this critics would say he couldn't play the part of a politician. what do you think went wrong inside story on al jazeera?

8:19 pm
sustainable piece in chat a ceasefire. general amnesty and the national dialogue will be the 1st articles to be implemented the dialogue due to be held later this month in the capital. and jemina is meant to lead to the formation of a government of national unity. constitutional reforms. and democrats collections cut up which sponsored the talks for as the agreement is just the beginning or maturity. very helpful that it will end hostilities between their different parties . it will move the process for a minute and meditate forces to a political left. what isn't will allow for an easy transition towards the negotiations in chad itself. but not all factions have signed the deal among the absentees in dough on monday was one of the largest armed groups the front for change and concord in chad. or fact. i think at the beginning,
8:20 pm
oh we were a little bit sure that your fuck to will not side. there were a footing a some unacceptable condition of for the government among which there is the release of the prisoners. yes. after the signing the lease agreement is still open and, and is still open for everybody to can join in the peace agreement in the future. so we urge and then today i urge everybody to did inside. and then, because this is a short memory for the child, in chad, one of the poorest countries in the saddle has been locked in eternal conflict. for decades. fighting among armed groups has forced hundreds of thousands of people from their homes. when hama to be replaced his late father as president last year, he promised political reform and launched the peace talks that led to the da harcourt. i never wrote, a child has seen dozens of similar agreements in the past. none of them held about
8:21 pm
why there is some concern about the future of this latest one. but many of the signatories tell us, but after 60 years of conflict, many charges say they are tired of the war and ready for peace, mama's fun, or to hear the taiwan has condemned china's extension of military drills around the island. the allon's defense ministry says 21 chinese air force jets entered its defenses early on monday. exercises were originally set to end on sunday. they started after us house speaker, nancy lucy visited taipei last week. jonas petra folk is in beijing with mortgage, if you, which on us foreign ministry certainly than want to elaborate on any further detail about the continuation of drills. but when asked about the daily press briefing here in beijing spokesperson one, when been simply said that the military has already issued a statement and referred reports as to that. that statements issued by the police eastern theatre command said that the exercises would focus on anti submarine
8:22 pm
drills as well as c assault drills. but it didn't say where exactly there were taking place or how long this might all last. so this really does create further concern an uncertainty about the situation, not least because taiwan had said previously that airlines had resumed normal operations over its air space. so we're not sure there's going to be him back on that, and we're not sure it will impact ships sailing through the taiwan straits either. but one thing that was notable in particular was one when bin was pressed on, whether china had alerted relevant parties about these drills in accordance with international norms. and he said that taiwan is parts of china, and that it, he conducted normal military exercises in an open and professional way. and that this was consistent with international law and customary practices that may be taken possibly as
8:23 pm
