10:02 am
welcome to the rug and we begin in lebanon, where hundreds of refugees are returning home to syria. lebanese official, say, 751. syrians are being repatriated and that the refugees are going home voluntary. but rights groups are criticizing what they call false deportations, citing security concerns lebanon hosts around 1500000 syrian refugees are correspondent santa hud. joy's us now from ourselves in lebanon of costa. the government says he's a voluntary repatriation zayna that must be very mixed emotions and comments coming out from where you are. yes, since the early hours of the morning, a few 100 refugees have gathered here at one of the many border crossings between 11 on and syria. they have begun to go home. we've been speaking to people here at the end of the day. we have to understand that these people are really caught between a rock and a hard place. they're scared 11 on and they're scared in syria. it's been an
10:03 am
unwelcome in country for, for many of them. lebanese officials have made it clear time and time again that they are a burden. in fact, they even blamed them for the economic crisis going back home. many of them left years ago, they escaped war. some of them are wanted for joining the opposition. others don't want to return because of the mandatory military service. so, but the lebanese authorities say this is voluntary. what is happening today is that syrians have signed up with general security and they wait for security clearance from damascus governments. and once they get that, they return at times i will tell you that not many do get that security clearance this time around nearly 3000 signed up so far, 751 are returning. so the government says it's voluntary. human rights group says there's no evidence to say that this is deportation, or this is not voluntary. but at the same time what they say is that the process lacks transparency. they're not parts of it. and once these people go home,
10:04 am
there is no way and checking and checking about their faith and their well being. because the government in a root is very clear on why they should return. and they're trying to get their point across in a way that will not draw too much international criticism. how would they managing to do that? they, are they all of their managing to be successful zayna in that, in that regard? well, the lebanese government, like we said, they've been saying time and time again, that the international community needs to find a solution to this crisis, because this country can no longer handle this. florida and lebanon is in the midst of an economic crisis, a financial meltdown. they've even gone as far as to accuse the international community of not wanting or not encouraging these refugees to return. asking the united nation, for example, why don't you redirect a, the, a, the cash assistance that you give people here? why don't you redirect that to syria and that this is part of, you know,
10:05 am
political pressure on damascus. we know that there has been no reconstruction aid to the government in damascus unless it agrees to 2 political concessions and carry out performs. so for the, for the lebanese government, they consider this as part of political pressure if you like. but bottom line is this many question whether or not the syrian government wants the majority of the syrians to come back. many of them who are in let on come from damascus area. they come from the areas which were the hot bed of the opposition during the war areas which have been level to the ground areas where others have, you know, they can think in their homes after the government. a few years ago passed the property law. a lot of these people lost their homes, they lost their property. so the question is, you know how many to the syrian government, 11 of these refugees to come back. and if i just give you numbers since 2016,
10:06 am
80000 or 75280000 have returned this have been verified by the united nations, which is really a small number when you compare to hundreds of thousands who are in this country. so talk that refugees want to return, but cannot. it is really it doesn't stand up because of the limited number of people who have signed up to return. the 4th level calls will follow the days events with you there. thank you. that's been 40 days since the death of 22 year old mother, meaning around. she died shortly after her us by the so called morality police, her death protest in iran, either around the world around is imposed internet restrictions and arrested many for taking part in the demonstrations. jabari looks at how the story unfolded. mothers grief heard across her on after the death of her daughter in police, custody into her on, on september 16th 22 year old. my saw,

i mean he was in the capital with her brother visiting relatives when she was detained by the morality to lease 3 days earlier. she was accused of not properly wearing the mandatory had scarf. she was from courtesan province home to iran, kurdish minority. the police released a security camera photography, which basically shows massa arriving facility or she was to go through what's called a we education class on the just benefits of wearing the headscarf, the official autopsy report and subsequent investigation launched by the government . a legit massa had a preexisting health condition and suffered heart attack wall and police custody. her family says that this is not true and accused the morality police of beating her while in custody. sees like these followed her death and thought nationwide, protest driven by women who demand an end to restrictive dress rules in the country . those who back the existing laws were allowed to gather and turn around to show
10:08 am
their support for the government. while the president was quick to address the issue in a live televised interview with them to, i told her family that this news was shocking, not just for me, but for every iranian criticism in dialogue on various issues have in place in the constitution and can help us in the decision making process. but the distinction between protest and ryan should be defined. earlier this month, president racy visited all female university and rance where he prays the chief miss of women in the field of academia. simultaneously, this was happening outside the building where the president was speaking. chancing gracie get lost. these university students make your demands clear this iranian and p warns without some systematic reforms, there could be further consequences, nauseous. i might add that it was due to the performance of the system. does she passed away? they have to express regret and apologize and revised muffin was the unrest that's followed massa mused. death has resulted in
10:09 am
a number of deaths including both demonstrators and security officials. this is the area where iran's morality police arrested massa minnie on the tuesday afternoon since then. they haven't been seen much in the city. whatever happens next your regardless of which version of events people believe it is clear that mass, i mean is death has changed. this country door such a bari al jazeera terran hope process will meet the family of the med and veteran algebra era. john listerine, actually in vatican city, official mass will be hell for the palestinian american journalist. trina barclay was targeted and shot dead by israeli forces while on assignment to the occupied westbank city of janine inmate correspondence 50 decor is in saint peter's square in the vatican city. a poignant meeting staff for sharing family. just talk us through the timeline of the events for the day.
10:10 am

10:11 am
anthony blink. and they put a request in with the i c. c. with the international criminal court. there is no accountability, there is no justice as we know. so the americans and the israelis came out in the end with the fighting, saying that it was highly likely that israeli soldier killed her. but there wasn't any criminal intent and therefore there will be no investigation an accountability . so this is something that the family is working tirelessly and relentlessly to try to change. but certainly, if you speak to any pat listing and or you know, any of us also, you will see that someone should be who is such a high standing in a very well known use organization working for a country that also, you know, has, has power when it comes to that story, particularly when it comes to dealing with israel and how much still there is no accountability, which is also why the family continues to push for the highlight the plight of the palestinians. so this is, this is, i think a significant visit start to me,
10:12 am
an invitation by the vatican and they will be meeting the pope. i'm assuming, of course you will be offering words of solace, but certainly the family i spoke to her niece also last night. really very much the only thing they want is justice for sure, which at the moment still seemed nowhere to be had. it will come back to you of course, through the day as we get more reaction to that conversation, stephanie can force him back to consider. now the former head of the catholic church in hong kong was appeared in court along with 5 other prominent pro democracy activists that charged with failing to register a fund that was used to pay the legal fees of demonstrators in the 2019 protests. jessica washington reports from hong kong long. we lie spent 6 months in hong kong prison, taking part in an unauthorized demonstration in 2014. it was their hong kong, 90 year old former bishop cardinal joseph, then came to meet him and all the inmate horrify. i've auto her,

10:24 am
because there was a lot of thought that with, with the former former prime minister johnson bar, as johnson wanting to get that important backing to try and get in the race. that that was the price, the e r g wanted the european research group, the right wing group that they wanted to actually get brothman in place in return for johnson not getting the backing. and so he was out of the race. that's the theory behind it. so a lot of juggling around a lot of twisting and turning in the run up to earth to this actual victory full as prime minister. now he is also going to have to look very, very closely at how he deals with the fiscal report, which is due out on monday. he may well delay that and, and try to actually get in more decision making on cuts and more. what
10:25 am
draconian measures if they sounds like it's going to be a very, very difficult job to convince the markets there's going to be further cut backs in the economy and, and to, to try to actually get things back on a level playing field. it seems the saga is not over for the politicians or the public in the u. k. andrew calls will follow events with you through the day. thank you. at least 22 people are being killed and thousands more left homeless after psych learn sit throwing slammed into bangladesh as coastal regions. both ortiz and are working to help affected communities have a chandry reports now from. but the holly cycle and citric barrel lane from the bay are bengal early tuesday with winds gusting up to 88 kilometer per hour and a storm surge of about 3 meters. heavy winds with rain and storm surge damaged thousands of homes in the coastal region. and flooding low lying coastal areas. cal cable nice on the beach teeth that will be yesterday during the storm and heavy
