12:00 am
church in adelaide sunday into monday and we're also going to see those winds wind up as well. guessing to about 65 kilometers per hour for the calm across both the north and the south islands of new zealand on sunday. bye for now. ah. ah . this is al jazeera ah, hello, i mariam the mozy. very well. welcome to the news our life from london coming up in the next 60 minutes. calls for calm in libya, is fighting between militias loyal to rival administrations, kills 14 people in the capital. tripoli, thousands ordered to evacuate in pakistan,
12:01 am
where flooding has now killed almost a 1000 people since june. waiting for aid, conflict and drought leave more than a 3rd of chads population struggling for food. and pope frances creates 20 new cardinals butting his stamp on the future of the catholic church. and in sport. liverpool, when, by an incredible 9 goals to record their 1st. when are the premier league season and the signs remain positive at manchester, united defeating south hampton, to grab consecutive victories. ah, well, welcome to the news hour. so we begin in libya, where intense fighting in the capitalist killed at least 13 people, and injured almost 200 others raising fears of the political crisis escalating into
12:02 am
a wide conflict. the gunfire erupted between rival arm groups early on saturday with explosions, rocking several districts and smoke rising from damaged buildings. according to the un, there's been medium and heavy shelling in civilian neighborhoods at a hospital is also been damaged in this. it's the latest threat to 2 years of relative peace, often these 5 between allies of rival administrations and it. so it was last year that i'm the middle of the baby was installed, is head of the us back government of national unity in tripoli. he was tasked with leading the country to elections in december, which will ultimately council the mid disagreements over the candidates and electoral procedure. this prompt in libby as parliament which is based in the eastern city of brook to declare the baby's government invalid to pointed forma interior minister, fatty bas shonda,
12:03 am
as the new prime minister. but debate refused to handle the power in may. but sugar tried to enter tripoli to take office there, leading to clashes between armed groups, supporting him and de baber. he was forced to leave, but as indicated he might try again. well, convoy, vehicles linked to chicago was reported to be heading towards the capital, but military sources of told al jazeera to now turn back to miss rata. a tripoli council has appealed for. com, and they have blamed all sides for the violence to the civil society. institutions interest, police strongly condemn the armed classes in the city and hold the participation politics responsible for setting civilian blood intimidating security to destroy private and public property. we also compare the following policies. the presidential council, which we have to take is vote will take the initiative cost to bring the state to
12:04 am
state, debilitate. we call them the house of representatives and the state as well as areas. malik traina has more in this now from tripoli. well, it's definitely less intense than it was throughout the day. we were hearing of light sporadic clashes in the south of tripoli. but in, in the center of tripoli in western, and in the west of tripoli, things have calmed down quite a bit. now these classes erupt, it are early around 1 30 am local time between these rival militias and things escalated quite quickly. we saw a forces affiliated with the parallel government, led by fatigue bush advanced towards the west of tripoli. they also advanced in the south of tripoli, which saw clashes erupt in and around, around the capital. you know, as you said, the un has, has said that light and heavy weapons were used. we could throughout the day hear
12:05 am
the echo of artillery shells hitting densely populated areas. our medical sources have confirmed that at least 13 have, have been, have been killed so far, and nearly a 100 injured me around 35 of them in, in critical condition, just goes to show how fluid and how and how fragile the security situation. and tripoli is well m, i, the dean body is a senior fellow at the middle east program. and the atlantic counseling previously worked on a, a stabilisation initiative implemented across libya for the un development program . he joins us live now from toronto. so can i ask you about this is convoy that has now turned back to miss ross. to minute teresa have told al jazeera that convoy vehicles linked to bush aga was heading towards the capital. does it look as though
12:06 am
he is changing his positioning or his tactics low? his position was unnecessary, necessarily change. there was more about the parents in this case, of course. so he was technically forced to leave by forces loyal to the governor of national unity loyal to me. but the g m, that were stationed in the neighboring sitting layton, where small skirmishes carried between those forces and the convoy of the missouri. that force subsequently the convoy to return. it doesn't mean that he won't try again. that doesn't mean that his attitude has changed. but it perhaps means that the international community might revive. it's all of the, i would call it the struck the line, big us in this case, towards libya. why do you say destructive abuse? yes. suppose a big part of the problem here is that there is no united position for me is
12:07 am
national community. you have different countries supporting different camps. that is exactly right. unfortunately, a lot of the countries claim that they stand behind the u and the united nations in march. i like the process that brought this government together by the house of representatives in eastern livia was unlawful, not transparent. and there were several procedural issues with the, with the, with the governments more hospice approach. sort of the way it was brought about and divided between the different parties and in west, in, sorry, and in libya. however, none of the countries followed up by not giving this to the government and legitimacy but, but i've been return li, engaged by different stakeholders. and that crystalized in his, in his spiky. i would say that the problem with their government was not that it was legitimate. the problem was it wasn't based in tripoli. and therefore the most
12:08 am
obvious solution to that is the ra, a frontal assault on the capital. in order to dislodge the can, what he perceives to be the and the government. so that g, u b m say, but the fighting has been concentrated to invite densely populated areas. people are saying that the shelling is relentless. they've got to leave their homes, in some cases it's already claimed lives. what are the consequences, all fatty beacham making another push with his allies to try and seize tripoli? i think the fact that the but the government exists has created an ecosystem sort of of competition whereby even small skirmishes between our groups and the capital, devolve into full fledged cat clashes between actually alliances of it. so the actors that are aligned with the, with the 2 governments aligned themselves on that basis. and that is partly what
12:09 am
happened today. so even if the classes that begun within the capitol last night were a political or they're, they're rather all kind of the reason why they were the reason why they happened was a political. they effectively devolved into something broader. that was very much political with the different frontal assault on the capital. both from within tripoli, but also on its eastern and western lines by, by forces aligned with both between forces, both aligned with the g, n, u, b, m. on the one hand and foot on the other. and madeline bodies, thank you very much for joining us. thank yet the news. our life from london still had for you on the program. french president wraps up his trip to algeria, is signing a raft of agreements. he hopes will improve ties and growing demand for the countries gas. as the un condemns, a deadly ethiopian as strike on a kindergarten integra. i reports
12:10 am
a fighting now in the neighboring am holler region, and they transport on historic wind for argentina over new zealand. all blacks ah, will unprecedented floods of submerged large parts of pakistan and neighboring afghanistan phone as seen record monsoon rainfall this year, which has killed nearly a 1000 people since mid june. and national emergency is now in place and the prime minister is asked for international help. at least half a 1000000 homes have been damaged, roads washed away, and nearly 150 bridges destroyed. nearly all provinces in the country are affected by this. and the mountainous north west reigns there of triggered land slides. the south west in by lucius don region has now been cast off off the floods there, washed away it's roads and railway tracks. and the southern sind province is had
12:11 am
more than 784 percent more rain than it usually gets at this time of year. i'll just, there is a bus wrong. the is in one of those worst affected areas in sind province where i'm standing right now is really a snapshot of what's happening all over the province of sin flood survivors are fleeing the affected areas and they are setting up camps make shift in at the water's edge in places all over the country on the 1st piece of dry land they can find. now just over my shoulder is a small group of tanza small encampment locally. they're calling this a 10 city. but these are barely tense, they're very, very rudimentary shelters. we spoke to people there who say that they are suffering with skin diseases, illnesses, dehydration, hunger, thirst. they have no villages to go back to because their villages are now simply
12:12 am
gone. when many of the people we spoke to there say they consider themselves the lucky ones. because they have some form of shelter, they have something to hang over their heads. now, just across the road, we've met a recently arise community that scarcely have a tarp to their name. really nothing to shelter under. they are now here out in the open and living in the mud amongst the elements out in the open amongst the insects . and this is how they are going to sleep tonight. and more than likely, for the foreseeable future until help arrives many more nights or tens of thousands of people to free their homes in northern baka st. on after a fast rising, where they are destroyed, a major bridge is deadly fonts. continue to devastate the country for a minute to ship bonds. rufus visited some of the affected areas he's helping to, to live a relief supplies. powerful flash floods in the northern club, a pontoon club province of cause the cobble river to swell,
12:13 am
cutting off some areas. come all hide has more from now. shera in kind of upon to inquire province in northern pockets. don the river. carbo. soup of flood. and most of the people are living in the low lying area. i've already been evacuated from their homes. these people are sitting here looking across the water to see every day how did standing they were able to get their life stock out of the area. the livestock is now on high ground to what i will release will, though we've got some help. we requested authorities to help provide water and for the for our livestock, their district administration, of course, importing an emergency and getting people out of hair. most of the government run schools and colleges are now being used as make shift can entire family now living under danes and under top really and whatnot. that i want to do that again. we left
12:14 am
everything at home. the government should help us return and help us rebuild our lives. oh, this is indeed a major crisis. and some people say they're all more powerful walkers on it now under water. 33000000 people across the country are affected and that constitutes 15 percent of the entire population. by august on has seen devastating floods in the boss. but people worn. this may be the worst that they've seen so far. well, with more and what's been happening in pockets on and what might lie head his, our, the present, jeff harrington? well, it's one for the record books, parts of pakistan, sin province. this has been record monsoon, rain, so never before and some spots have we seen this amount of rain nearly 2 meters in 2 months. of course, we know there's still a month another month to go for the monsoon season. now as for pakistan's largest city karachi recently registered about half
12:15 am
a meter of rain for the 1st time in 55 years. and the indication is that by the end of september, you could reach one meter of rain. so that would be historic. so, lot of numbers here, let's show you some of the pictures out of sin province. so from karachi to 100 bad, you op shop right through to jacob, a bad, truthfully, every province in pockets on somehow some way has been impacted by these flooding, effecting tens of millions of people. so we've had a number of monsoon depression, so what that is is we get this slug of re move away from the ad mar, it intensifies in the baby gall and crosses rate over northern india. then in some cases, not all cases, we've seen that disturbance out over the baby and see it cooks up even more and then crashes into pakistan. and it just stalls out over the country ringing out its moisture. so the big question is relief coming. while the good news is the monsoon rains for now are starting to fizz allowed. here's our forecast on sunday. still keeping that rain toward the northeast as along by through the hor right up against
12:16 am
the foothills of the himalayas. but the indication is that we'll get into a wall for the monsoon range, and they'll pick up again as we head toward the middle of september. or enabling afghanistan floods are also st in several regions. they're prompting and taliban government twice the international community for health. punch here is in the northeast of the country. it's the latest province to be swamped by heavy rainfall . flood waters of inundated around $3000.00 homes and destroyed vital fields of crops. taliban official say 192 people have died this month was to come all model more than 1000000 families made urgent aid from foreign countries, such as clothes and food. or a summer of extreme weather as bass at the northern hemisphere with rack or breaking heat wave, severe drought, and deadly rainfall all since june. on relatively rare events,
12:17 am
the pace of change is now far out. stripping government's ability to respond to what is happening. and this is affecting tens of millions of people across the globe, and as he's seen, pockets on and off canister in the midst of devastating flooding after record monsoon rains. now in sudan, in the rainy season, there's already effected more than twice the number of people it did last year. that as the rest of the horn of africa is on track for a 5th failed rainy season set to damage the vital crops and make hunger levels even was to tailor to harms in china with extreme heat and a long drought in the south. while large part of northern china when passing by unusually heavy rainfall and floods, much of europe is still recovering from a summer of reco temperatures. while in the u. s. wildfires of already been more than 24000 square feet, which is of land that's as wanting a 1000 year rain events of struck dallas, death valley, california and 3 other areas in recent weeks. there would zilkey as
12:18 am
a climate scientist and president of the institute governance and sustainable development. he joins us now from south carolina. so we've just covered many different countries on a number of continents. when you look at what is happening, devastating images from pakistan, but also see countries like saddam china. of course, the u. s. being affected by this. is there any way that you are particularly concerned about that you're perhaps watching more closely? well, we'll see the extreme weather events at rome in the world hitting down almost randomly and the 12 punch of droughts followed by floods. actually 123 punch because you often have wild fires in there as well. so the, it's going to be all over the world. i suspect that the tropics will be the,
12:19 am
the most heavily impacted because they're already very hot. and as cloud cover, which is cool in the world, begins to shift, we're going to open up more heat in the tropics, and it's going to move beyond what humans are able to endure. so at keep an eye on that, as most scientists are. and then i'll also note that the arctic is warming at 4 times the global average. while it's not particularly heavily populated, it has tele connections with the rest of the climate system. so the jet stream starts to meander, it holds heat domes, longer over devastated populations. it begins to change even the monsoons and south asia. so the,
12:20 am
the arctic is another place that we have to watch, not just watch where we have to start responding to. so let me say that is one thing to know. the heat is coming and it's going to be worse and worse and worse, but it's another to know what we can do. and in fact, there are things we can do to slow down the future warming. and that means cut in the short lived super climate balloons lead in with methane methane as right now, the blow torch said sir, putting the world on his extreme heat. and if we cut it quickly, then we were able to slow down the warming faster than any other strategy that we could undertake. any one in a while, dinning well, the yes. in fact, a $121.00 countries have come together and agreed to the global methane pledge. this is just a pledge. it's not a mandatory treaty yet, but they've said we will collectively work together to cut methane emissions by 30
12:21 am
percent by 2030. below the 2020 baseline, so that's a good beginning. and this is organized by president biden in the u. s. and von minister vander linden in europe. so us in europe, but now a $121.00 countries out. so that represents all over the world. china has not yet joined or has india, but there are discussions underway for them to join as well. and that pledge that needs to be followed with funding. so it's great to round up countries and say we will commit globally to this goal. but how do you help those who need the technology and need funding to get this done? so can the international monetary fund help? and the answer is yes. can the green climate fund help? yes. can the world bank help? yes. so we need to line up that funding as quickly as we can to accelerate
12:22 am
the efforts out of the global method pledge. i just called to any look at a country like pakistan. and that infrastructure is being destroyed to the point where they can even respond to what's happening in ruskin relief at the same time that healing with economic collapse and a political power struggle. how do you, how does a country like that prioritize something like this without that being too much outside insurance, right. so if we have to recognize now that climate as the anvil up in which all other geopolitical problems will play out. i mean, we will have this power struggles and will have national crises. but if we don't get together and solve climate change, climate change will overwhelm any attempt at governance. and we really are at the point where we're risking civilization. if we don't slow warming in the near term,
12:23 am
the near term, i mean in the next 3 to 5 years by cutting the super pollutants. that's methane, that's black carbon, so that's troposphere goes on our ground level, smog, and hfc refrigerants. if you do that, you can cut the rate warming in half within the next few years. and the arctic warming by 2 3rd, so that that's the down payment for a safe climate and, and it's possible there are efforts that are beginning, as i said, with the global math and pledge and the material protocol, the world's best environmental trade. and the best treaty for climate as well, has agreed a few years ago, and i could golly, a member to cut the age of c refrigerants. that alone will avoid about 0.5 degrees centigrade by the end of the center. so we can speed up that great treaty,
12:24 am
we can go even faster with the agencies. and again, we can take the global method pledge put money with man eventually that i'm in the next couple of years, turn it into a global agreement model. there after the merger, a protocol, a men we have, which is important to hear about the practical steps that can be taken to respond to some of these devastating images we've been getting from a countries everywhere. thank you very much. there would zel key for joining us there from south carolina. my pleasure. we're french president is wrapped up a 3 day trip to algeria with an agreement to deepen ties after months of tension between paris and the former french colony. ties have been strained since last year, and emanuel mack on questioned algeria existence is a nation before the french occupation. is asher bar reports from paris. a visit to the santa cruz chapel in the mediterranean port city of all, and a record shop, famous for helping to launch or i music with

ranks of those under 80 who will pick his eventual successor when he dies or retires. francis is now named nearly 2 thirds of the eligible electors who will choose the next pope. one of the new cardinals is bishop robert mcelroy, a 68 year old progressive from san diego, california. by elevating this lesser known cleric, france is passing over other high ranking clergy in the us who say catholic politicians who support abortion rights should receive communion. mcelroy supports francis his work. i make the church more inclusive, and i think it's important to reach out to groups. and that is what the pope has to do, who have been marginalized to have been kept out of the mainstream. whether that be because of the lives of economics or of the race, nationality or their gender, or sexual orientation. many,

many of the new cardinals come from the global south. an area of priority for francis, just for countries are now represented in this class of cardinals. for the 1st time, mongolia, paraguay, singapore, in east timor. it is clearly francis church now more than ever. but that doesn't mean the next pope will be in his mold. if you look at the story of the catholic church conclave at the moment when it gets elected, are pretty much surprising of reform or pope is elected from a pretty conservative conclusion. as was the case with apprentice. ah, it may be too early to say, just who will follow, pope francis, but he's still doing what he can to increase the odd. it will be someone who has received his blessing. adarine algeria, vatican city. joining us live now from rome is andrea gallia, dooce,
12:42 am
a journalist for the catholic news agency covering the vatican. how have these cardinals changed the church? how they different from those before them? well, actually they changed the church because they're changing that as a representative to the church. i mean, there is the 1st time that he's a cardinal haley from team or less said that he's a 1st time a cardinal alien from magnolia, which the country where a catholics at bad very few its various mon, as more flock of catholics who are there. so they change a little the face of the global view of the shish, they're not changing the church. i mean, the cardinal was come from many parts of the war. the jump will the 2nd, the de la cardinals coming from countries where no one was that the issues that the churches with more global, because war is always one global. and so unique cardiac everywhere. because the pope and these princes cardinal, like princes everywhere. so the idea is that they will be more progressive, more inclusive. how could that influence that choice in put frances success?
12:43 am
so when the time comes, well, i don't see all of them being so much more productive order more fugazi. but i mean, you know, some of downward, already working in the roman curia before bill frances and there were, you know, they were, they were not progressive at all. there are some down to, to consider progressive, but this is some can lead, but that indicative li church doesn't work very well because it depends much the depletion. obviously most of them are at a more like minded to per francis than others. so i mean for frances now creating something like 62 percent of the cardinal eligible door to walking, conclude. and that's gonna influence a how you success, sir, that shouldn't be successful. although we should remember that when the cardinal, we both can claim that things will be different. the pope will be, will be that will be retired according to situations as something we choose according to their situation. as the service before said,
12:44 am
there can be batty progressive, leaning, conklin said, working for a conservative cardinal to me, barbara, vice versa. very difficult to answer this question, but you are there and you cover that can use in great detail. what is your gut feeling about what might happen? is it likely that this pope might choose to retire? i don't think he's going to just retired to work through much about that, especially because, you know, this consistory is part of our 3 days, quincy. so that was disconcerting today to create new cardinals, and then that would be another policy story that will open on monday we left today and we'd be about discussing reforms. but in the middle frets is going to like, we like to morrow. and luckily in the city where one of the cardinal said will make fish a long time ago, phyllis in the 5th was leaving and that he's, that is, this is 15 businesses, the forgiveness. so anyway, just thought that he was assigned that was going to resign his sell it in the fif
12:45 am
the need in the middle ages. i voting so backdating that this upcoming consistory, both reforms will have the sun can. the reform also afford the so called city account. this will be due the transition phase between one papers in another. when the the fee is when the cardinals beside what they've got to watch. but they're not fema conclave. and they need to reform that situation because the curity for that is the form of the, the cost of the holy see meaning. like let's see, select the ministry of the book, change the sum of the off season as we take care of the transition. so i think he's going to reform. that's but feel it's a guess. you know, it's based on my perceptions, but there is nothing official yet. all right, thank you very much, andrea gallia do chief for joining us after you from rome. and we go out to argentine where the economy is battling rampant inflation and a currency losing value daily against the us dollar. but while the countries struggles it's more stable, neighbors are taking advantage,
