says the only way forward is for elections to be held on what day, mentoring, with an ad. it is the residence of tripoli who are paying the price. they are the victims. the population of tripoli is nearly 3000000 people and they don't want either government. they want to vote for whom they want empower elections. of the only solution. things have calmed down since the fighting began, but people here still fear that libya may be on the verge of a full scale conflict. now, trina, al jazeera jibley, my can joined us now live from washington, d. c. mike, what kind of reaction are you hearing? so far from the washington? well, the us ambassador to libya has issued a statement expressing concern about this increase in conflict, asking as well that humanitarian corridors be established as

a matter of urgency. and calling on libyans to once again come together and revert to that un sponsored process that was supposed to lead to elections a process that virtually fell apart in december. we've also heard from the un office in tripoli, which has expressed deep concern about the fighting going on around it. the turkish foreign ministry has added it's voice backing the u. s. position in terms of calling for new elections. remembering that turkey has a military presence within tripoli itself, although it has not at the stage been involved in this ongoing conflict. a lot of word of caution, also from neighboring to news here, which has issued a statement calling on the parties to refrain from further conflict. and once again, asking them to return to the un backed piece process, resulting in elections. and also there is deep concern expressed by the state department of us state department 5 days ago issued

a statement even before the common ground of conflict and asking for the parties to refrain from conflict. and also importantly, asking the u. n. to go ahead and appoint a new special representative for libya as a critical part of getting that piece process back on track. and mike, obviously a very complicated situation there on the ground in libya. are there steps that the international community could take right now to actually de escalate the situation in libya? well the key issue is getting back to that piece pro says that the un had put in place along with regional allies and other partners as that is the key issue at this particular moment. but that deep divide within libya has never really gone away despite the past 2 years of a relative calm that divide between east and west. the of forces in the east, the government recognized by the international community in the west. these 2

parties, these 2 sectors have already have always been at each other's throats, so to speak, at the round of conflict that we are seeing now is going to further accentuate these difference and you make it even more difficult to return to that process. the you and the security council will be meeting on the beer in the next few days. and it has a crucial role to play. not least getting a special representative in place as a beginning to get the warring parties to begin the go see 18. all right, that's all zeros. my can ally for us in washington, d. c. thanks so much. mike. unprecedented flooding across pakistan has now killed more than 1000 people. more than 30000000 people have been affected in what pakistan's climate minister has called a humanitarian disaster of epic proportions. a national emergency has been declared more than half the country is submerged in water. dr. job, it are chrome as the president of the pakistan society of internal medicine. he

says there is a looming health crisis even after the flood waters receipt. little difficult situation. i think the worst human that when a crisis that we are more than under 1000 people already dead and still counting unfortunately, the worst i don't think is over. i think we are already seeing a lot of water born diseases. lot of skin diseases. lot of yesterday and tried this, especially amongst the young children because of the scarcity of work clean. walked up the relying on the flat water which is obviously contaminated all over. and then we have extreme danger off diseases like dang, d and still vs not over forward. so because people are in very, very crowded situations in the tensor make shift arrangements in the schools or

something like that. and also we struggle with chronic diseases like losses. so this is very difficult time for pakistan, and park is funny and i think not only need victims, they need a lot of support from local people like me. so we are going out and, and building their houses and providing them with the medical care that began with this is going to be just dropped off the ice. but so i think the international community, we haven't heard anything from them right now. and i hope that the rake up to this disaster, and before it is too late, they act come on, hider is in the town of no. shara in northern pakistan, with more on the floods there. you can see behind me and the river gob. roland. it's extremely high, flawed according to some estimates that is 350000 cubic feet of water

bottling through our sheriff. what is done over florida is buying the religious surrounding the river more of the area that now under water. however, the local administration was able to evacuate tens of thousands of paper on our short notice your high ground saving their life dog and also moving them to school and college that have been that job that didn't provide cam. now the big challenge of god is that these people have left all their belongings at home, all their value, but i now waiting if they will get any compensation from the government and waiting to see when they will be able to go home by the emergency job this is the 8th of the rain and up not in the mountain. just boarding rain even now. so the

threat of got that door watered from the not really floor down and effect the low lying area in neighboring, i've gone, is done. floods are causing widespread destruction. to punch here in the northeast as the latest province to be swamped by heavy rainfall. thousands of homes and farm land are destroyed. paula beneficial, say, 182 people have died there are appealing for international help. was to come all model more than 1000000 families need urgent aid from foreign countries such as close 10 and food. thought frances, his name, 20 new cardinals, and a ceremony at the vatican. the appointments include more candidates from africa and asia, as the roman catholic church pushes to become more diverse. and as adam rainy reports, those cardinals will eventually play an important role in choosing the next pope. oh,

in placing the ceremonial do kept on the head of 20 new cardinals. at the vatican, pope frances deepened his hold on the church. 16 of the new cardinals joined the 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, frances 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. ready this is what the po possess 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 of 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, the moment when i get elected are pretty much surprising of reform or pope is elected from a pretty conservative conclave. as was the case with france. if i may be too early to say, just who will follow, pope francis, but he's still doing what he can to increase the art. it will be someone who has received his blessing. adarine al jazeera vatican city. the french president has
