as you're talking. we're looking at these lines pictures. we're hearing the gun fun . clearly a very emotionally powerful moment. this is a very sensitive time for these re, these to continue rating the west bank off. the last week's raids on jeanine triggered the escalation in gaza. right? it is, it is, it is important to note that these are 2 separate groups. so the sci fi that's just been declared in god's or is with islamic jihad, that's another more powerful group hug would say, this group alex is brigade notches brigade, so very acting out of the occupy way spanks and different group. but we've actually taken the time this morning to speak to some analysts on the israeli side, who said that they think that base is a plan to say we've got a sci fi with one group that won't stay

a hind in operating and affecting other other groups or in the occupied territories, that might be the strategy, but yet it's certainly noticeable. but just off the sci fi that was broke by egypt and gaza, israel, the state of israel, is already launching attacks in the occupied west bank. the other oak complied territory. and even bit foolish to me yesterday, to houses with demolished in the occupied west bank. that's what he's road does in punishment against the family of someone that they consider has committed a crime. so it hasn't stopped a to following the sci fi, these riley sorts of rage and operations. thank you. bye territories. all right, we'll leave it that, john, thanks so much. i'm sure. come back to you as soon as continue in the day. voting is on the way in kenya's presidential election, author campaign dominated by concerns about high inflation and corruption. the 2

front runners, the former prime minister, ry loading a current deputy president william root has the race to replace outgoing leader who can yasser is expected to be close. folks who are also costing valid for parliament and county governors. tasa joins me now from the m v. patel polling station an elder. right. so how is voting going so far? will they be the few taking the cold and logistical issues at some polling stations in some parts of the country, but on the whole voting has been going fairly smoothly. you see at some coating stations really long lines of either the latins or but paula. but the process seems to be very fast, very quick for both kenya, the issue here, it's about the economy. many people in this country are struggling with rising food costs and inflation and birds. while i didn't get william roots are promising to address the call me if they win requirements,

say whoever wins it won't be easy for them to just do that. this country bought a lot of money to build infrastructure project across the country and you seeing in some places, nice new roads, nice you building, but money has to be paid back. and he called me say like the tax failed, we pay back some of that money. this area is the worst fatty william we told stronghold any of us there are modern support here. some people may vote for him based on tribal lions. he is a calendar and within the a some people here a lot, not too happy with him to say he was. he's been date with the deputy president for nearly 10 years because we haven't really recovered. they're still struggling is massive unemployment. and then this is the farming area he was involved in a may scandal where some time ago the government allowed millis to import cheap, made into the country. it flooded the mark of the cheap maze. the farm was not to sell. there made a lower price is made, the ran into losses and they haven't really forgiven him for that. for all these issues are playing out for jen. we voting across, hang out,

has been ready to be moved for the moment. all right, thanks so much. we'll try and kenyans on edge as they head to those poles. voting in the country, not always been easy or safe on the worst was in 2007, and more than a 1000 people were killed and a crack down on protests. accusations of fraud tainted both the 20132017 votes. was a close race between the hood of kenyatta and now canada riley didn't go. but concerns over a flag economy a driving people to the polls this year. food prices have skyrocketed across the country, and public debt is soaring. spring in schafer, a car, a she's a development and governance specialist joins us via zoom from nairobi. good. have you read this point, any indication of who might be ahead or

not yet? i think it's too early to call. we're hoping that be good time gets to be extreme by the which is in position that these people are trickling in actually study and we're hoping that a lot of people come through. so it's a bit too early to tell who is going to lead the end of it. so we just all cutting up than hoping for a peaceful and transferring process. how smooth has the voting gone so far? and what does it mean for any fear of a relapse into those in stable instability of the path? i think the voting has been fairly easy and smooth rate for lack of a better term. and even if you compare it to the 2017 election where we had hitches with the technology system that we're using now, even though we still have some each is, but we have been solved much better than the last. so it's been, well, it's going really well. and i think also people realizing that voting is just pattern priscilla but governance process. a lot of people have been coming in booty

as fast as they can and going back home to eat for the results, which we're hoping that will it will be received. well, i think i've got a question in terms of how easy to kind of slide back into violence. i think it's never anybody's intention to go and, you know, into a violent state. right. and that there are many, many reasons that kind of compound can of kind of, and heading into a violent violent election. and it will sink from my own personal opinion that we're gonna see about surveillance of you've seen before. because the sentiment is different. the people are also engaging differently i think are being dependent electoral boundaries commission even with the myriad of challenges that they have faced as the people kind of hold the selections at random and they're doing their very best to ensure that we have smooth transparency and very less on this around, so like i said again, fingers crossed and we hold that international meetings, not as of what is in any is, is of that comes forth. you mentioned sentence is different. is there something of a turning point for voters where the focus more may be on corruption, economic issues rather than ethnic politics?

personality politics. i think interesting. he, the voters have really focused on, on corruption when it comes to voting. and on the, on a magician's, if you look at it like from away from re objective and subjective lance, so this time around what's happening is that people are 40 for themselves. they're kinda wanted a balance, you choose themselves, right? and what this means that kinda on the ballot looking for the person who understands their issues, who understands what is important to understand what they've been going to even before corvette the country has been struggling deeply with its economic stability, deeply with employment, deeply with insecurity, deeply even when you know the corruption issue that you mentioned, i think this time around what's happening is that tenants have interrogated completely and in every way possible on the candidates that are present. so the feeling is the whole actually speaks to me before they speak to my tried before the speak to my people, to they speak to myself and my issues. and this issues that affect the people

around me, which i think is a wonderful thing for our growing democracy and for a thriving governance piece. all right, thanks so much for your analysis on that. you're welcome. thank you for having me. but a marcella had on the news hour, including a people dead roads turned into rivers and sol off the torrential rains and the race against time to save a vulgar whilst lock in the riverside and in sports fans demand answers following the death of one of brazil's most beloved marshal of stars. ah, the florida home of former us president donald trump has been searched by the f b i. he criticized the rave calling. it's a weapon. i zation of the justice system. my kind of reports from washington. the

former president was staying at his apartment in manhattan when the raid took place and was seeing leaving trump tower and walking towards waiting cars. according to the former president, his home in mario lago, florida, was rated by a large group of f. b. i. agents who he alleges also opened the safe in his home. his statement says after working and. busy cooperating with the relevant government agencies, this unannounced rate on my home was not necessary or appropriate. the justice department has declined to comment on the matter, including about whether attorney general mary garland had personally authorized to search. previously the national archives and records administration had referred the discovery of 15 boxes of classified information at maro lago to the justice

department for investigation. no former president has faced additional determination that it is likely that they have committed a crime charges do not sign off on warrants or anyone lightly. they always believe that there is likely that a crime has been committed and that it has been committed at this specific location . so this is genuinely an unprecedented event. the house general you 6 committee which is investigating the invasion of the capital on that day had also heard evidence about the removal of classified documents. when trump left office. there will also claims that when trump was president, he had repeatedly shredded or disposed of classified material. after reading it, the destruction or removal of classified documents to an unauthorized location is a federal offense. mike hannah, out to 0 washington. a day after china announced it was extending its biggest

military drill. taiwan is carried out its own live far exercises to stimulate, defending the island against the possible attack. tension has escalated since us how speak and nancy pelosi visited tai pay last week. a move page in coals provocation. sympathy has more beijing's one china policy could make conflict about the future if taiwan inevitable. and this is what it might look like . on tuesday, taiwan began life fire drills to showcase the self proclaimed island nations defensive power. days after some of the largest military exercises china has ever conducted shiloh used the drilled. it is military play work to prepare for the invasion of. ready one, it is contacting large scale military exercises and missile launches as well. cyber attacks. this is what mation campaign and economic origin united him to weaken

public more real taiwan type. he says it won't be intimidated even as china breeches the unofficial median line down the taiwan strait. we need to counter the blockade imposed by the chinese military. and today's exercise, it's a let china know that we are prepared. i hope both sides can exercise a strength fighting a war is not good for the ordinary people. just send me the top officials from both sides or odds. we are just ordinary people and there's nothing we can do. if anything happens in the future, we can't do anything either will be. the latest flexing of muscles follows us. how speaker nancy pelosi is visit to type pay a show, a support for taiwanese independence. the china says directly contravenes beijing's historical claim to the island. the u. s, position china is using the diplomatic visit to pick a fight clearly or the p r c is trying to course taiwan. clearly they're trying to

course the international community. and all i say is i'm, we're not going to take the bait and it's not going to work. ah, so it's manufactured crisis said, that doesn't mean we have to play into that. i think it would only play to beijing's advantage. what we'll do instead is to continue to fly, to sale, and to operate or wherever international law allows us to do so. and that includes in the taiwan strait and we will continue to stand by our allies in partners in, in the region. the war games have disrupted shipping and air traffic in a region crucial to global trade. more worrying perhaps beijing in taipei are turning up the heat on another brewing global conflict. as in basra, v al jazeera, let's bring in benjamin her savage haze. a research fellow at the australian national university was formerly based in beijing as a policy analyst with the center for independent studies, joins us fi,

skype from sydney, good. have you with us? so 1st of all, we've got now taiwan saying it's carrying out live 5 drills was the potential here for conflict. it's great to be with you. i think the 1st thing to say on this is that neither side ultimately wants war. beijing doesn't want war because it wants to be able to absorb taiwan into china without having to fire a shot and without having to engage in a really risky and potentially disastrous attempt at an invasion of taiwan and town . of course. ready does not want war because that would be catastrophic for the town is people potentially and how one would prefer to maintain the status quo. what we're seeing here with the aging firing missiles over taiwan and healy air force. jess approaching taiwan and taiwan responding moods or military exercises, is both sides seeking to warn the other side, this signaling to each other. don't take further steps during the further escalate

. the situation and beijing is also signaling those things to the united states and u. s. allies. and so i think the chances of conflict still remain relatively low to slide this, intensification of military exercises and activities around ty, one in the taiwan strait, always seen china, really step up to its drills. is it still just registering its displeasure? or is it practicing an invasion as taiwanese official faith is i think you're absolutely right that these kinds of activities. ready for beijing, so 2 functions on the one hand, it is a very palpable, clear, strong demonstration of the extent of china's frustration with the u. s. house, because decisions that are one that's on the i believe the cases are registering your frustration, just content. but at the same time as you point out activities, all of this nature is going to be an effective means. ready for the p away and for

the broader chinese system to test out its ability to project force and to demonstrate the capabilities that it has on hand. so it serves 2 functions. i don't think this is a preparatory phase for a full scale amphibious invasion of tie one, because that would be incredibly risky for the chinese government and incredibly costly for china. given the united states having single it's determination to defend taiwan in various different ways. but it is a powerful mean for china to register discontent, test its forces, and also send a really strong signal to the rest of the world that they should not get involved in this fight because of the extent of a fire palate. beijing can bring to bear when china did large scale drills, if you think back to the clinton era, the u. s. moved in based off its military presence in china, scaled down its trails. that hasn't happened this time. that alone is, is it not an indication of just how the balance of power is changed?

reality is changed there. certainly the balance of power has shifted. the p l a has incredible capabilities that it can bring to bear in a fight under the sea, on the surface of the see in the air bar. all branches of its military and the united states still remains of the middle fighting force. but of course the power relativity are shifting invasions favor. however, i think that in this particular instance, the united states hasn't responded with. ready more of a show of military force probably because. busy all the internal disagreement in washington, it was the house because the decision to visit hi peg and to send a. ready strong signal to beijing about us support for taiwan. but that was not a decision endorsed by president biter and abiding registration. and ultimately, decisions with respect to military matters. a show of us force would be a decision for president barring himself and but by the ministration wants to give

beijing a certain amount of space to express his anger, but does not want to escalate. we the strong us show force at this particular point in time. all right, thanks so much for your analysis. greater review. thank you. have a rains have flooded south korea's capital, turning the streets of sauls, affluent nang. them district into a river. at least 8 people have been confirmed dead, rob mcbride, now. these rains have been expected with forecast, is predicting around 300 millimeters of rainfall spread over the best part of a week. now, many places have already experienced that in the soul area. in these past 2 days, and it is still raining, one place, recording 381 millimeters of rainfall on monday alone. now that's the heaviest rainfall in a 115 years. but considering that's when records 1st began, it's pretty unprecedented. one of the worst effected areas has been in the low

lying gangnam district south of the han river. that's also home to the country's president. you took joe, who found himself stranded in his apartment. these rains have mostly been affecting south korea with the rain bands. now moving further south down the korean peninsula . but north korea has also been recording heavy rainfall with the north, suspected of releasing large amounts of water into the river system, shared by the 2 careers without informing the south 1st. because the 2 are talking at the moment, the korean peninsula usually gets annual reins in june with a return of the reins in september. but it seems that with changing weather patterns, this year, the rains have returned earlier and heavier than usual. now below, go, while stranded in france could be moved to a tank, is fats race against time to try and save its life. the while now under a sign is thousands of kilometers from its natural habitat in articles suboxone

his behavior and noticed these a bit stress. but what is reassuring is that he's managing his stress and has been relatively called good did. he prefers the side of the log where there is less noise city. we are presumably the nearest beluga. population is nearly 3000 kilometers away. north of norway, scientists hope that by building up his strength in a closely monitored tank, this whale will be better prepared for the very long swim home. bernard smith, algebra said i had on al jazeera too little too late. the 1st shipment of rain from ukraine under an export deal is rejected bites lebanese by bringing the been in bronze is home over a century after they were stolen, a london museum agrees to hand back 72 chrysler sauce banks, who's

there are they won't cheat us. yes, i will be firing from yet. i'm speechless. the one in my residency. the shelling has them bracing for the worst. goodness love us. it's very dangerous. it could be another channel or even worse. the plant has been struck more than once in recent days. european leaders and local residents say they want a demilitarized zone around separation. because a disaster there could mean a catastrophe for all of europe. humanitarian aid workers are pleading with both countries to cease hostilities nears apparition or make a garage. i near preserve. i am a city residence recall on the russian army, and the ukraine armed forces to avoid open fights and can there it on. so for asia and this in atlantic kilometers on iran in the clear bergland, i caught them. miss thompson. whether the 2 warring parties come to her rare agreement in the ongoing conflict remains an open question. john henderson,

al jazeera keith, ukrainian officials say 11 east via is refusing to accept corn from the 1st congo shipment to leave the war zone. since the invasion there was only loaded with $26.00 and a half 1000 tons of corn is now looking for another port to dock at. the ukrainian embassy and lebanon says the buyer argued the 5 months delivery delay was too long . 3 7 vessels and sailed out of black c ports under the deal between ukraine, russia broken by the u. n. and turkey. spring in reza about the army as a former senior economist at the u. n's, food and agricultural organisation joins us now live from rome. good. have you with us? how common is it for a buyer to reject a shipment? well, you know, there are always reasons why this things happen and it, it, i guess it's not. it's not often, but depending on the circumstances and the,

and the contractual agreements, unfortunately, i didn't know about the commercial contract. that is, in this particular case, to know the real reasons. but it's not, you know, it is not something that is very rare. it can happen and can it happen that the, the delay can cause that, i mean, from a sort of trade perspective, if your ship has been stuck because of a war zone. while does that usually mean the buyer is going to say, sorry to light? well, i guess you can, i mean there are also of course measure that could be applied, but i think the dispute case, you know, has been 6 months. that could be their idea of reasons from a quality issue to simply lack of cash to pay. now, i mean, 5 months ago, assuming that the, the origin is living on some rumors of actually the origin with syria was going to be transit through living on and that the syrians now may not have the cash to pay

for it. so there are. busy you know, that could be many, many other reasons for this, but the fact remains that this was not. busy issue that was loaded yesterday. the grain is old and he's been sitting there for a while, so there could be changes on, on many fronts. i would say 12 like this happened to the grain now with question, i guess that depends on if the, if the issue was came in and not the quality, i'm sure they would be buyers. so for it, if on the other hand there is a quality issue, then the situation is a bit different because either has to be sold or the heavy discount or simply nobody may be interested in it. it is positive. how would one ascertain if there are quality issues and sort of, i mean, if it's been stuck in a port for half a year, is that likely to be the case? it can be, but again, you know,

one doesn't want to spread. rumors depends on what conditions when exactly was loaded. so i have not seen reports that would one way or another provide that information the, the agreement that this, this ship went through turkey and god, you know. busy monitored by do. busy authorities, i don't believe also included testing for quality or any of that. so from that angle, you know, turkey have nothing to do with it is really between the buyers and the set it all right. good to get your thoughts on that. thanks so much. all right. sure, thank you. to turn to our top story now the killing of a top commander of the alex, some authors brigades by israeli forces. john holman, joins us now live from nablus with more last time we spoke you john, it was a very lively funeral. scene have things kind of calm down now.

not really actually, you can't see it immediately behind us because if we move for a moment, we lose the signal. there's so many people around them. what's called the mark to square here in the center of nobliss. what we're also hearing now that it's not just here in other towns in the occupied west bank and then people are being cool to close that shots on a general strike. we're hearing about that in ramallah, in hebron, so in bethlehem. so this is something a period of morning mix with protest, i guess that spreading across the ups by westbank, the palestinian prime minister. so now spoken, he's called these radio, me a terrorist, all me in the state. put out the part of that with actually do this, raid this attack, whatever you want to call it into the occupied west bank and get to nablus. these radio policies have to go. i should be on to the full control of the palestinian authority and is ready for says under the oslo agreement. should it be coming in in

that way to, to, to grab or in this case, to kill people. hence the statement or the aisle axa marches brigade of which of which this map was a leader of has also said that the retaliation of for this will fit the crime. but at the moment we're talking about just morning protests. you probably hearing a lot of gun shots fired into the air as people do mourn him and people heading to his funeral. i suppose he of the significance of this is actually the israel is doing this just after declaring a separate seas for with islamic jihad in garza. she's one of the other, the other occupied territory in this region. so it isn't stopping acting, although this is a different organization, it's keeping on with its operations with its rates into the occupied territory. we'll have to see what the response is here. all right, thanks so much john. our members of indigenous communities in bangladesh of

protesting against the government decree, they say denies their existence media have been ordered to avoid using the wood indigenous during coverage of the u. ends. international day of the world's indigenous peoples. the government has been trying to send to the wood for years, insisting there are no such groups in the country. about 3000000 people in bangladesh claim indigenous status can via child very has more from mother for bangladesh. bangladesh is home to more than 54 indigenous peoples that speak more than 35 languages and have distinct cultural identities. yet they referred to collectively as are the marshes. i tundra dahl block teaches young people about their cultural heritage to ensure it is passed on to future generations. i mean, you think of a shaggy mission, one equity governor, of course, i consider myself as indigenous. our ancestors, including my forefathers, have been living here for centuries. answered birthright, i am

a native indigenous person with the neo indigenous groups represent nearly 2 percent of the population of 168000000. bangladesh to this day has not adopted the 2007 you and declaration on the rights of indigenous peoples. and the land rights of the indigenous communities in this country still remain one of the most contentious and, and resolve issues. the un declaration obligates the government to restore ancestor land and protect minority groups from oppression and discrimination either as to the cannabis oil. it is unfortunate that our state still refuses to recognize the identity of our people as indigenous for more than a decade now, which is wrong. if indigenous people are recognized as per the un mandate, it could also serve the nation's interest by accepting the cultural and ethnic diversity of all concerned. some school textbook have been published in indigenous languages,

but most are gathering dust. even though some school books have been published in native languages, so far, the government has not given us formal permission to teach those in schools in 2011 bangladesh and acted a law that classifies none bengali tribe as ethnic minorities rather than as indigenous groups. right groups and analysts thing that formal recognition of indigenous peoples would mean the return of lands and protection of fundamental rights. which is why the government is reluctant to adopt the un resolution. i'll just it i had hoped to get some clarity from the information minister. however, our request for an interview went unanswered. sandwich audrey al jazeera mother per bangladesh. the muslim community in the us city of albuquerque, new mexico is on high alert. for men were killed there in the past 9 months, 3 of them in the past 2 weeks. i think i'll hein has the latest name. hussein had
