china's leader, she jin pink calls for military growth and defends his policies on taiwan and hong kong at a major party congress. ah, i'm has them think of this is a lie from de also coming up. a fight between inmates leads to a fight at a ron's evan prison known to hold political detainees. we follow the plight of people in nigeria who've lost everything after the west flooding in a decade and is her time nearly up mounting pressure on the u. k. prime minister, just weeks into the job. ah. hello president. she jane thinks as china must ensure hong kong is ruled by what he

calls patriots. he was opening the twice a decade. miss party congress in beijing, ye tell thousands of delicates his nation will strengthen its ability to defend itself. on the issue of taiwan, china's leader once again warned he would not rule out using force to bring the self governing island under its control. what? shoot june, boylen, sushi, the ship resolving the tie. one question is a matter for the chinese a matter that must be resolved by the chinese feet. we will continue to strive for a peaceful reification with the greatest sincerity and utmost if it. but we will never promise to renounce the use of forces and we reserved the option of taking all measures necessary. this is directed solely at interference by outside forces. so a patrick fork has more on rep president. she's speech from basing key outlines and the key achievements of the party, talking about how it had to successfully managed to curve at 19 defended cove at 19

policy. that, of course, is very much in focus. it talks about raining and hong kong and bringing an end to the unrest there and 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 at 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. well, let's get reaction from taiwan. now,

alexander wong is in taiwan city. he's a professor at 10 can university and director of international affairs of taiwan nationalists. k m t party. good to have you. what it's so 1st of all, your thoughts on no, she speech. oh yes, i think she, jim painter wanted to reaffirm his party members that he has the ability and the mission to be accomplish standing. he was to report suggested that he will continue to be the head of the party and the country and well carry on what he had already announced to the green rejuvenation of chinese nation in the future. it's quite clear that he maintained and re iterate all his promoter programs,

and he also hinted that there will be greater challenges ahead you know, for a better and scholar, people can understand he already sent the signal and let people understand that he realized that china will also helps many daunting challenges i had in foreign affairs as well as domestics. and the only issue of taiwan, he didn't say anything that wasn't particularly new in terms of a basics position on this. but a lot of independent observers felt that it was, it was more aggressive than usual. what was, what was your take on? well, i think he mentioned major 4 points to oppose. and to promote promot unification, promote integration,

oppose independence, and oppose for interference. you know, from my personal perspective, i do not believe dad is stronger than before because people need to understand his oral presentation did not read out the full text of the entire taiwan paragraph. so i think he emphasis more on the anti or opposed for interference. yes, in the sense that he had given a more sense that china is, again for a system to taiwan for, for an interference. but i think he also, you know, eliminate, or at least did not speak out something taiwan would strongly against. so i

personally believe it's a balancing act if we compare his oral presentation and printed text. if we read into details it's very difficult. ready for, you know, general public to understand but for special as people understand the policy nuance i would not say it. ready is, you know, a news may, can event on taiwan is i, i want to ask you more generally though, because many, many people in taiwan look to beijing is crack down on hong kong in recent years as a warning sign to them of a grim future that could await them, should they come under beijing's direct rule? what is, what's your feeling on that? of course try one is know, hong kong on call was turn bag by the united kingdom and the entire one we are republic of china. last week we just celebrated the 111 1st day

of the republic. so cross tre relations is more of a equal foot in a relationship. and as of course, psychologically taiwan, people does fear that if we fall under chinese rule, we could be treated as bad as in hong kong. but i have to say taiwan is no hong kong. we have our own constitution, our own forces, and our own practice in elections. we are totally feel from, from hong kong to, to get your thoughts alex on the one that, thanks so much the was thank you. i, she jen, thing is set to secure a historic 3rd term as leader of the world's most populous nation. adrian brown looks at his political rise. the president, cheating pings, grip on power,

would now appear absolute. if he has enemies, the hidden or unknown, or both. but some of those who chronicle she's curious say you don't get to the top of chinese politics without that eliminating rivals and making enemies. he does, but it needs to be said that the congress has an active state pageantry. the fact that this congress is happening 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 would be in charge of state security. he said 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 within the communist party, but also clamped down on his rivals. other analysts say the continuing campaign against corruption ahead 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 brings then seize 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 seen since chairman now and the leader since him has built a personality called as strong. adrian brown al jazeera, the russia says, 11 people have been killed in a shooting at its southern border with ukraine. defense ministry says 2 attackers, open, fired, and military training ground in bel got on. the air has been shelled in recent days in what russian officials say when miss r strikes by ukrainian forces. ruth, to resume a terrible event, happened yesterday on our territory on the territory of one of the military units. there was a terror attack committed. many soldiers were killed and wounded. all of the

wounded are getting hell. i want to express my words of condolence to the families of those who were killed the are by your site, and i just, there's mohammed vol. is a moscow for a certain. mm hm. and what more do we know about this? the official line here is that a terrorist attack took place and the 2 suspects who were killed in that attack came from one of the central asian countries of the c. i. s, the commonwealth of independent countries, very close allies to russia, and they offset to be volunteers who came on their own to fight alongside the russians against ukraine. not specific. the reports here about the identity of those who were killed at the beginning. they called them civilians are not sorry, a people just people and now they are the governor,

call them soldiers. but what soldiers are they also volunteers? are the russian soldiers that still need some clarifications from dash 5. what is important here is the location itself. the town of solo t, a small town to the southeast of belgrade, and all of that is considered at the area belgrade. and that area has been under shelling. assume the may or even april on the 1st of april to helicopters, ukrainian helicopters, shell that area, and from the time on lots of incident, similar incidents took place. oil that puts were targeted the some of the airport in the area. well, closed 1000 fled from the nearest point to the border area. and the options that felt uncomfortable, particularly about this war, has been waged in the name of protecting russia itself, from,

from aggression from abroad. and then you regions that have been and next consider the russia region. so when the borderline itself is still unsafe, people behind inside russia itself are still unsafe. that's considered a big failure for the russian army member belgrade itself. the city is only 40 kilometers away from the ukrainian, bought a one hour drive from harkey, if a ukraine the 2nd largest city. and it looks like russia is unable until now, after months of war and occupation of or annexation, as they call it, of a huge territory from you can itself is still unable to protect its own civilians and cities. mohammed vol lie for us in moscow. thanks. i still ahead on edge ozetta. ah, how small political parties in iraq are now pushing for new ideas to change the

landscape. ah, calling for change demonstrate is back on the streets into nicea demanding. the president and his government stepped down. when we come back. ah, anticipation is rising. and so with most of my cattle a ways. first things 1st. it's what we had been warning about 24 hours ago. severe thunderstorms over greece's creek island and wow. did it deliver? torrential downpours here. inundated the area. this was how high flood waters got, and you had cars tossed around like toys. i got to tell you, still the risk of more severe thunderstorms across the island on sunday. the energy drifts eastward in the eastern med closing in on cyprus, so we could see a similar scenario play out here over the next little bit. still blustery showers

in its stumble and a white day in ankara with a hive. 18 degrees or plume of rain is moving in to the republic of ireland, also dropping down in clipping the west of france also the northwest of spain and northern areas of portugal, still in the 30s for southern spain. but a bit more cloud cover and seville with the high 30 degrees. now clouds will drift away throughout the day across central europe, paving the way for a beautiful day temperatures in the low twenty's zagreb, sorry evo, and to run up, there was the risk of flooding across southern nigeria. that threat has now moved toward southern benito togo and especially gone out on sunday and to the south. we go could see some severe thunderstorms bubble up in south africa's kazoo luna tau province. but a cloudy day in durban with a high of 23 degrees. take care to with sponsored by cattle anyways and talk to al jazeera. we also do you believe that women of afghanistan was somehow abandoned by the international community?

we listen, we have a huge price for the war against terrorism as good morning money. we meet with global news makers. i'm talk about the stories that matter on al jazeera, unprompted and uninterrupted discussions. from our london broadcast center. on out to a 0. ah ah . and again, this is edge, is it a reminder of our top stories president? she jin thinks as china must ensure hong kong is ruled by what he calls. patriots. made the comments at a twice a decade. communist party congress in beijing. russia says,

11 people have been killed and 15 wounded in a shooting at its southern border with you. craig fence. minifee says 2 people open fire at a military training ground in belkora. iran's government says the fire broke out at evan prison into iran on saturday. was caused by fighting between inmates overnight . smoke was seen rising from the facility and gunshots were heard. the detention center holds many political prisoners. officials say at least 9 people were injured in had it. this file was caused by a fought between some prisoners in the sewing workshop that called the workshop was set up to create jobs for the inmates. or esl said that has more from teheran. it was about 10 p. m. local timing into iran when the fire started in evian prison . so based on the blazes and smoke that was rising about the prison, we can't say that it was quite a big one. so right off the fire,

there were 7 gunshots and also the explosion, like stones heard. and, and we see that the through that the, the be there was that we are receiving is not only one single unit of the prison that was set on fire. but in different parts of the prison, the fire, it was still going on official here have a story to say that there was a crashes, the clash between the prisoners, that some of those prisoners had set the fire on, on, on the, the warehouse or the deceiving workshop in the prison and not the official said agents who say that 9 people are injured no reports of the casualties. yes, i will. yes, however, the witnesses somewhat witnesses are seen that the, some of the month of cocktails were thrown into their prison and that they started the fire their right. after that, you have seen that the, the security forced aspiring, and also using gas to disperse, to disperse people ultra nationalists. the jewish groups have stormed. the oxide

must compound, under the protection of israeli police. it happened on the 6th day of a jewish holiday. israeli forces restricted the entry of muslim worshippers to the mos grounds in occupied east jerusalem since sunday morning. witnesses say the ultra nationalists goose gathered at the gates of the mosque chanting and dancing. iraq's new prime minister abdullatif rashid, is set to form a new government after months of unrest. but around the capital, small political parties have been gathering to remind the government they want radical change. zane bas rami has more from baghdad. ah, yeah. with bread freedom. a government for the people as iraq's new prime minister begins forming his government, a group of smaller political parties with no armed wings,

communists and reformists young and old men and women, met in both dog, calling themselves the forces for democratic change. they want officials to stop bickering and get to work. i need to know when the next one, those who govern to feel the suffering of the people iraqi blood has become so cheap. we have lost our national treasures. our waters are gone dry. there is widespread unemployment and suffering in the past. iraq was a top ranking country now where at the bottom of the list of decades of decline in iraq, some say has happened at the hands of people in power who came out of nowhere. charlotte, the 2 political islamic forces to those in power to extremists, with a sheer sunni or could we say you've ruined iraq, you stole it, you destroyed it. they came on the back of american tanks and a loyal to intelligence agencies of countries like it on saudi arabia and so on.

all of them have a rocky blood on their hands and have stolen public wealth. all of them a corrupt. the consensus here replace old faces with new ones. iraq's future is secular and the best governments focus on the common good can. i took all of this month, but we didn't want symbolic government says that doing nothing. we want a government that takes action crease, jobs, fights, poverty develop services, re paved roads like softer, the agriculture and private sector. a lot of the message from iraq is in. this is a simple you are higher than they are the alternatives. and the old guard political players that are dominating the national conversation. right? you are not the only ones, not the political dialogue, not the vision, unity and love children are the future. it's the kind of idealism that may seem out of place in iraq's political landscape. but iraqis, hearsay,

that is exactly what their country needs in basra, the old 0 book that i was then a 2nd night of violence in the tandem on neighbourhood of tunis. confrontations between protesters and security forces have been going on since friday after the death of a young man. the, the family says he was killed by security forces. does he, ministry of interior is yet to comment. and i comes after a day, a protest across it's an easiest capital on saturday with people struggling to cope with the food and fuel shortages between again because more wow, crowds gathered in the center of tunis ne keith, president high side of corrupting democratic institutions and wanting absolute power, if i knew 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 urged shenanigans to boycott december's parliamentary elections. ah, i don't see. i mean that unity and people who fought 50 years for democracy will not allow this crew to settle. they've seen the 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 a life and know what they've got to put on the dinner table at night. 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 chain is inc, this is just secure to 1900000000 dollar alone 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 or fair. they say site has too much power. and democracy is in danger. victoria gate and be out there. i work as in nigeria are struggling to reach hundreds of thousands of people displaced by floods. there you are producing region is the latest to be hit by water that is already devastated. northern central and eastern parts of the country are many trees reports from attorney, one of the worst affected areas in southern nigeria. 2 weeks after family member was swept away by the flood, the edges are still waiting for the water to recede. so they can bury their even after no sandwich, or although at a very a 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 go well, council soccer chair. 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 la street, fleeing from rising water levels threatening their watch 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 to that, the face a little, what to say, look of admits used by media and for casa friends. and why didn't somebody need to go? there could also be trust issues. the big you was them, but by to them as my to that will got 5 by 5.

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

but by the time help arrives. it might be too late for some i'm at the address ology, sierra daniel. at least 20 people have been killed in a bus crash in southwestern columbia. more than a dozen are injured. the bus is thought to flipped over on a road between the cities of pastoral and pion. 30 say it may have been a mechanical fault. a u. k prime minister liz trus, is under pressure to keep her job after making 2 after making u turns on 2 major policies. she fired her chancellor on friday, replacing him with jeremy hunt. he is admitted, trust is scrapped, tax plan was a mistake and wants difficult decisions. lie ahead and you simmons reports from london financial and political chaos of 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. only 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 hunt 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 would appear he has a mandate to rewrite. large parts of important government policy summoned the

conservative party say, trust has become a lame duck prime minister. because she's appointed hunt. he is the dominant figure in the government. i mean, you could imagine, can you, if you were asked to take on that role, the concessions that you would demand in order to do that. and it would have to be, you know, 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 argument for them. it party 1st country 2nd. that's unforgivable the case with a man.
