china's communist party begins a week long congress to appoint its leaders were present, she gin, paying poise to secure a 3rd time at the top. ah added, i'm nora. kyle is out 0, live from doha. also coming up calling for change. demonstrations take to the streets across to nicea, pushing for the president and his government to step down to his president pays his respects to the victims of a mining explosion that killed $41.00 workers and picking up the pieces we visit people trying to rebuild their lives and the ukranian region of custom ah,

present, she's in thing has defended china's cove at policies at the opening of the ruling communist parties, 20th national congress. she told around $25300.00 delegates that the heavy curves placed on people's lives for their own safety. he says the meeting in beijing is happening at a critical moment. for china chem, in fiji, we have pursued reform at a swift and steady pace. i made solid progress and developing a people's democracy and advanced law based governments across all fields of endeavor. we have developed an advanced socialist culture and have ensured improved public well being as a matter of priority and pulled resources to wage. a battle against poverty or siege in pang is set to secure a historic firm tom, as leader of the world's most populous nation. agent brown looks at his political rise. president, gigi,

pigs grip on power would now appear absolute. if he has enemies that they're hidden or unknown, or both. but some of those who chronicle cheese courier say, you don't get to the top of chinese politics without eliminating rivals and making enemies. he does, but it needs to be said that the congress is an act of state pageantry. the fact that this congress is happening, it means that these rivals have already been largely pushed to the sidelines after becoming communist party chief a decade ago. she vowed to root out dishonest officials, both high ranking tigers and low level flies. the campaign went down well with the public, especially when it in snared powerful and wealthy figures. bocce eli was the rising star of chinese politics, even tip as a future president. but within months of he becoming leader bo was serving a life sentence for corruption and abuse of power. no one was untouchable,

including john kang, the man who'd been in charge of state security. he's also serving a life term for corruption and disclosure of state secrets, and the purge is not over and more than 4000000 people have been caught up in it. so it's been a very effective tool to fijian, paying to both in still discipline with the communist party, but also clamped down on his rivals. other analysts say the continuing campaign against corruption. her head of this congress would ensure that she strengthens his hand over appointments to key decision making bodies. she has led china per decade. now he's expected to end precedent by being appointed to a 3rd term as party chief. so having seized control of the chinese communist party, seizure prim then sees control of china, and china has become a lot less free,

a lot more oppressive, far less open than it was. 10 years ago. it's an accumulation of power. i've seen since chairman now and nobody to since him has built a personality called as strong adrian brown al jazeera protests have been held into new 0 as people struggled to cope with a deteriorating political and economic situation. 1000 times to rival opposition, great rallies and renewed calls for president chi site to resign. interrogation be reports ah, crowds gathered in the center of tunis ne keith, president high side of corrupting democratic institutions and wanting absolute power. hi manny i came here today because of the queue and the miserable conditions the country is in today. there is no water or milk, no sugar and no petrol. and we have

a president who is only interested in power. the 2 parties organizing the protests have long been bitter rivals. now both are focused on the fight against cy age leaders of the national salvation front coalition, and the free constitution party urge tennesseans to boycott december's parliamentary elections. i, the tunisian people who fought 50 years for democracy will not allow the school to settle those same extent of mismanagement, incompetence, and failure. at both rallies, protest is called on said to quit enchanted. the people want the fall of the regime . the slogan of the 2011 revolution which spark the arab spring, people are getting really quite frustrated for those 2 pants. there's ones who are fighting for democracy and those who is fighting for kind of bread and being able to live about ally friends. know what they got to put on the dinner table at nights . the government hasn't commented on the latest protests side says he's working to

improve the economic conditions he inherited from his predecessors. to that end, the changes in government is just secure to $1900000000.00 loan from the i m f. but these protest is say they won't give up. they don't believe the upcoming vote will be free all fair. they say so i eat, has too much power, and democracy is in danger. victoria, gate and be out is era. people in a morning, deaths of 41, the coal miners who were killed in an explosion on a 100 people underground. when the bloss happened on friday night, president type has visited the site and met survivors for them because only reports from a mass for the after several hours of searching under extremely difficult conditions. whiskey workers brought up the bodies of thousands of miners using the same gated lift. the workers had used to begin their day,

300 meters down. the cause of the explosion on friday evening is not known yet and will become part of the investigation. what is clear for now is the huge loss of life and damage. it has caused some of the workers who were close to the surface were able to escape vision close. because we saw a horrible scene. it cannot be described, but it's very sad. so they're all my friends, friends, i eat and drink with that the weekend they all had dreams. they all had families. some were married, some were single, the turkish president treasure they, as on visit at the survivors, and paid tribute to the workers. for the moment, of course, we will determine how the explosion happened and whether there is anyone responsible through administrative and legal investigations. we no longer want to see deficiencies or unnecessary risk in our mind. the mind belongs to the state own

turkish heart cool enterprises. because of friday explosion and the school mind behind me is still under investigation. whatever the outcome to kid does not have a good safety record, particularly in coal mining. despite the fact the number of accidents has been decreasing in recent years. 8 years ago, 301 people were killed in the nation's worse coal mining disaster, which occurred in the western town of soma. what i said is kinda all the site used to employ 6000 workers. now the same productions carried out by $700.00 workers, or you'll see the same things if there is no effective investigation and inspection to term penalties or acquired mistakes. my estate company cannot be forgiven. the rescue operation has now ended, but many here fear, unless additional precautions are taken. similar incidents may take more lives in this call, rich region seen em. casado al jazeera, a master,

job and fire and gunshots and a jail in iran capital that's full of political prisoners ah, anticipation is rising and so with sponsored, my cattle aways damage in the gulf states have come down to where they should be. 35 is spot on average for dough hands. no significant wind, which means it feels a little bit close a little bit humid. but it's not out of the ordinary to be honest. but i'm a bigger picture. well, things are changing the further north west. you go because we've done into autumn weather now and flowing trust the basra. c. a mom or down through the gene into the eastern med, is a quite a cold wind to be honest. and it generates big sand stores which are probably catch alexandrian, cypress, slower moving showers over good part took here. as you can see,

for the time being the levant, dry, but those shells will move in that general direction. but between here and the declining disappearing monsoon is bone, dry, and temperatures. they are coming down little bit shower around as a by shower. maybe parts of dalton, iran, otherwise there's not much to talk about the house that's for sunday and for monday . so let's disappear down to africa. well, like the tourist to breathing. it's sherry at night than it moves thunderstorms out to the east to nairobi and back towards could gully during the day, but the seasonal rain is still showing as fairly heavy for the same scrapper republic. the con goes back to nigeria as well. yeah, there's funding on the ground. there's more to come to with sponsored by catch all day ways. these turbulent times up front returns for a new season. join me, mark them on hill as we take on the big issue. they are literally being turned back . how is this not a contravention of international law? this is exactly the place for us to interrogate people about the issue that letter

from the state of democracy around the world. to the struggles faced by the under represented. the voices have to be brought to the table. they have the matter. we have to start to talk about the see here. we will challenge the conventional wisdom up front on al jazeera. ah ah, there again, you're watching out, is there a his reminder of our top story? is this our anger at the political and economic situation? and tunisia has grown into major protests. thousands turned out on saturday as rival opposition groups help parallel rallies against president chi psi aid. people in turkey. a morning, the death of $41.00 coal miners who were killed in underground explosion on friday

night president which app time out of on best to the sites and met survivors and about to bring an end to mining accidents. and china's comments policy is holding it's 5 pm congress against a backdrop of mounting challenges for the 2nd biggest economy. president, she told delegates in beijing their meeting at a critical moment. the china let's get more on this from patrick folk. he's in bay jang for us, and patrick president, she has delivered his opening address. it's not nearly as likely as his 3.5 hours speech is 5 years ago, or 2 of the key things that he said yeah, well perhaps because it hasn't been any sort of major changes in what he said. but you know, right, the opening, the speech, he outlines and the key achievements of the party, talking about how it heads as successfully managed to curve at 19 defended curve at

19 policy. that, of course, is very much in focus. it talks about raining in hong kong and bringing an end to the unrest, then opposing taiwan separate his forces. he also talked about how the anti corruption of jer drive had achieved a resounding victory and had eliminated risks from the party. but all of this really is part and parcel one might argue, all trying to justify what was previously an unconstitutional 3rd term. and of course we are expecting present, she to secure that's a 3rd term at the helm. he did also say that the government approved the political system in recent years, and we are of course, expecting some potentially big changes to the political system. he said that the great rejuvenation of the chinese nation was irreversible. so that seems to put an emphasis on the need for continuity. and this rejuvenation is really about china achieving its goal of becoming an advanced society by 2049. and some people would

say about achieving global supremacy and patching the chinese economy. his man is facing some serious headwinds right now. are we seeing any signs of major policy shifts there? yeah, i mean it's worth noting that the wording in all of this is incredibly important. and so any small change in the wording might represent dramatic shifts and policies that we have been looking out for that one thing in particular on the economy was the present. she said that developments remains a top priority. there was some discussion about whether or not there may be some sort of change to say something along the lines of needing to balance developments with security. but that hasn't happened. so that will be food for comfort. one might say for investors. but as we know, there has been much more of a focus on national security and national stability and in recent years. so you

know, some people might be sort of reading into it. now to what extent can we really say that, you know, development is still the key priority, and is there gonna be any disconnect between what's said and what's the reality? but certainly as you say, the economy is facing some very stiff had it wasn't headwinds right now. that i thought live with in bay. jang, thanks fam. at now, bush premise to list trust is under pressure to keep her job after making you turns on 2 major policies. she fired had chance there on friday, replacing him with jeremy hunt. he's admitted, trusted scraps, tax plan was a mistake, and one of the difficult decisions lie ahead and re, simmons reports from london, financial and political chaos, a prime minister refusing to quit. but the u. k. media aren't alone in st. time is up for liz. trust her sacking of her chancellor and friend quasi quoting on friday and her dismal performance in

a news conference afterwards failed to calm the market. when you're going to say, now it rests with the new occupant of the chancellor's office at number 11 downing street. jeremy hunt to turn things around on his 1st morning in office. he was critical of what trust has done so far was a mistake to cut the top rate of tax at a period when we were asking every one to make sacrifices. and it was a mistake to fly blind and not to back up the economic plans that were announced with an independent forecast from the office for budget responsibility. while hun says he supports growing the economy, he's talking of increasing some taxes. the only cuts will be on some of the spending. ministers and party grandees would normally look to number 10 for solutions and tactics. not now. it's number 11. jeremy hunt, the 4th chancellor. in a matter of a 100 days, he's got a strong background and it will appear. he has a mandate to rewrite large parts of important government policy. some in the

conservative party say, trust has become a lame duck prime minister because she's appointed hunt. he's the dominant figure in the govern. i mean, you could imagine, can you, if you asked to take on that role, the concessions that you would demand in, in order to do that? and it would have to be in your control over economic policy, over personnel, over key committees, whatever the conservative party does, it can't afford to trigger an election. one new polls suggests it has less than 20 percent support. the opposition labor party is rallying its members. whatever they say now, whatever they do, it boils down to one occupant for the party 1st country, 2nd advanced, unforgivable. but a truss is at the prime

minister's country residents for the weekend baffling to save her job. jeremy hunt spent most of saturday with his treasury teams working on a formula. he might be able to team the markets, but may not save the prime minister. andrew simmons al jazeera london aaron's government has a fire at the even present in toronto has been brought under control. gunshots will also heard video showed smoke rising from the jail where many political prisons are held iran in state media, se clashes broke out between inmates and guards, and riots has started a fire. and it comes as protests against iran's government and to a 5th week despite a crackdown by security forces is now been a month since the funeral of 22 year old master armine. she died in custody of iran's so called morality police. after being detained in teheran, a death is trigger the most intense unrest in the country. in decades. people in

several us cities have be marching in solidarity with iranian women. how did your gastro was one of the protests in washington dc? i all of these marchers in solidarity with several 100 in washington are headed to capital. see them carrying you run flag as well, photos of my sanity. and their message here is that they sandra a lot of energy nationally after vice president joe biden said yesterday. and something in writing for a long time. and that brings us to i guess i have you here. thank you so much. i like to you for you to see this outside of the run. it's so heart warming and it looks nice to be home. i will actually care about

what's going on. i would try to go to see it that it's not just, you know, you know, everyday america, occasion just every one of our standing up for the people who do you think the u. s. government is doing, you know, we know that there were sanctions announced against the morality police. and now that we've seen the debts and the violence directed towards protesters enforces. what else can the u. s. government do? i don't know what else the us government can do, but what i can tell you that whatever is being done is not a not at this point. i think what needs to happen is they need to start speaking out more when that happens to iranian people. thank you so much and we're hearing more of those voices as i said, you want in american as well as not iran. i,

my dad did ignite some things. i hope that message is touching not only ran across the his on has someone's view, as ambassador officer president joe biden cooled the nation. one of the most dangerous in the world wide made the comments on thursday saying islamabad has a nuclear arsenal without any cohesion. pakistan says it's the assets, meet every international standards set by the u. n. symbol gone as a political and security analyst. she says the timing of biden's statement was a bit of a surprise, but dallas, it will have a negative impact on the us pakistan relationship. i think the concerns are not very deep as far as the u. s. relationship with pakistan is concerned. be seen a lot of high level visits behind the scenes. things have improved since last year or less than a year even since past 6 months. relationship is has improved. but i think mostly focused on the policy makers are looking at this statement from the context of us.

his own internal mid term was coming up in november. this statement came by president biden was made in a fundraiser. and you know, it's, you know, preceded a link with putins, the nuclear threat. i think this whole kind of a fear securitized narrative helps the u. s. president and, and the white house when they try to explain why they want to rebuild relationships with pakistan. why is it still important to engage pakistan? because, you know, it's easy to go to the congress and say, hey, there is this country, which is, you know, lacks a cohesion when they say political cohesion. we have some of you know, stakeholders that support you with a strong pakistan u. s. relationship. yet some supporters who do not support that yet. it's a new piano country. it's close to the close to china. tall to close to russia. putin was threatening europe right now, it's important to engage pakistan. so i think that that narrative sells for me as

who i think that's where it's coming from. security forces in bikini faster, say armed groups have killed at least 3 soldiers and 8 civilians. the group has said to have been ambushed in the northern province of time, and tenga, the latest attack comes off the september 30th crew, that owls to president left tenant, colonel paul, only santiago de amoeba. it were his in nigeria, struggling to reach hundreds of thousands of people displaced by floods. producing region is the latest to be hit by water that's already devastated. northern central and eastern parts of the country. i can address reports from a tommy on the worst affected areas in southern nigeria. 2 weeks after our family member was swept away by the flood, the ga us still waiting for the water to recede so they can bury their even after another sandwich are low at the very everywhere. so

from the level of water here, it could be at least a week before they are able to do that. many other families are waiting for news. any news about their missing relatives though? well, council secretary, it was a work place until 3 weeks ago. now it's been taken over by hundreds displeased by the flood. it was the destination for dozens who drowned last week, fleeing from rising water levels threatening their homes. for nearly 3 weeks, it's been where angelo be and her family called whole times. she says are tough for everyone. then she had one by the face 2 by the face a little while this a little bit of miss. you spend meeting and the focus or friends on what in the some of the media. that could also be trust issues. the big you was them, property on them as my to that well got $55.00,

my favorite go to this local gotten with community i with the finish, many areas that completely cut off and the feet of the residence is still unknown. one of the biggest challenges of delivering a to victim of the flight a number of states is the level of water 2 weeks since the flight. there is little time it's receding, but that's not the only concern here. quite as of the for the are for separatist movement. also active in this area. that is set to be a reason why some officials are staying away. there isn't a lot of national emergency management or do see which caused or car. i mean, the number of things is walking along with the manager, air force do it or reach out to some of those communities. a delivery generally has been slow and inadequate. victims are concerned that by the time help arrives.
