. 6 losing boats in 2 days. chaos and the republican party as hard liners swore to kevin mccarthy. it's b u. s. how speaker ah, carrie johnson. this is al jazeera alive from dough. also coming up, auto group is totally united behind jerusalem and alex, i'm all scandal had. i'm a sheriff. the palestinian ambassador to the u. n. presents united front then voice from the arab and muslim world. a day off to these very security ministers incursion is the out x a must compound the e. e recommends pre flight testing for passengers from china. or south korea says 26 percent of arrivals from china, of tested positive. the coping 19. protests continue in bolivia,
2:02 am
demanding the release of detained governor from the opposition for the live for santa cruz. ah, who begin in the us, whether be a 7th. the boat in about 2 hours, as kevin mccarthy bids to become speaker of the house of representatives. for the 2nd day, the republicans fell to convince a group of hard liners to give him the top job, with about 20 refusing to support him. it needs at least $218.00 votes to be elected, or u. s. present joe biden, his urge politicians to get their act together, saying the fight for leadership of the house reflects poorly on the country. it's embarrassing for the country. i mean, literally, i am making a part of this reality that you know, to be able have of congress. the can function is embarrassing. greatest nation in
2:03 am
the world. how can i take those on hanjin joins us law, not from capitol hill at john? has there been any progress at all on this extraordinary political soccer? well, there has been some progress. unfortunately for kevin mccarthy, it has been negative progress yesterday. he had 19 votes against him. then by the end of the day was 20 now it's $21.00. and he is significantly, far from the $218.00 votes. he needs to become elected speaker. the republican party is in disarray right now. they want to govern, but they can't get out of their own way enough in order to take the 1st step. so now what they've done is they've taken a 3 hour break. we're about one hour into that break and the 2 sides are getting together. this block of freedom caucus republicans are sending representatives. and so is the mccarthy camera they're trying to come up with some kind of agreement.
2:04 am
but what that is is hard to say what that could be. mccarthy is given in concessions on nearly everything they wanted and it seems that the thing they want most is mccarthy's head. they want to block him from becoming speaker to display their power. and then they want to pick someone who is more like them. someone who is fiscally conservative, someone who wants a more democratic small di process in which each member has more power in this speaker has less mccarthy's already agreed to allow just 5 members to vote, to remove the speaker that would bring it before the whole house. and a majority would have to vote to do that. that wasn't enough for some of them said they wanted every member of congress to do that. so it seems that there is an impasse. and mccarthy is not yet willing to back out, but pretty soon he's going to be facing pressure from other members to back off. and meanwhile, mccarthy is likely to be pressuring people with incentives,
2:05 am
but also negative pressure. things that they will do, like removing them from committees. and if any of that works we'll find out in the next vote in a couple of hours. and john, with the impasse, i say, what might it take for some of these men does to back the coffee? is it clear what they actually want in total? that's a great question. and so question everyone has been asking. so with each $21.00 members, he can only afford mccarthy can to lose 4 of those votes. so we've got to somehow pull 16 members over and that's almost impossible to do with individual incentives. typically when, when bargaining like this goes on. busy members, leaders in congress can offer something for someone's district projects and that sort of thing. but they haven't even created the rules to run the 118 congress yet because they haven't elected the speaker. they haven't got committee assignment yet . it was hard to offer those kinds of inducements,
2:06 am
and it's difficult to see this block breaking up and a majority of them suddenly deciding to take mccarthy on it is looking increasingly like what's going to have to happen is a consensus candidate is going to have to come in because this block of 20 or $21.00 voters does not seem willing to break under mccarthy. okay. for now on engine with the update. thank you. the potter student ambassador to the un has spoken about the impact top is ready national security minister. it's a mob been given incursion into the i'll act some mosque compound is accompanied by ambassadors from several arab and muslim nations, which was all right. diplomatic i, editor james base joins us live from the united nation. james, tell us more about what was said then well, this been a flurry of diplomatic meetings taking place here at the united nations, a meeting of the arab group of ambassadors then a meeting of the ambassadors from all islamic countries. and then the

2:08 am
emirates, the arab representative in the security council supported by china france and mal parcel for it's worth noting that among those ambassadors surrounding the palestinian ambassador were the representatives of 2 countries that have long had diplomatic relations with israel. that's jordan and egypt and also the ambassador of morocco and the deputy ambassador of u. e. 2 countries that the more recently had more friendly relationships with israel. it's also worth telling you that one of those ambassadors, the ambassador from jordan mahmoud. her mood spoke also to reporters. jordan has a special role as the guardian of the holy sites. the king of jordan has a special role as the guardian of the holy sites in jerusalem. he made it clear and reminded reporters of the year, 2000 when that then that israeli opposition. leah ariel sharon went to the alex
2:09 am
a mox. com pound. and he said that at that time the security council had produced a resolution. this is it 1322, which condemns what it says was the provocation that had been carried out and he and the other ambassadors say they want to see another resolution like this passed by the security council because he made it clear back in 2000 that that act was the spark that started the 2nd intifada. and as someone who covered that on the ground in the west bank at the time that something the certainly at the international community as, as doesn't want to see again, jane's mains at united nations thanking israel's new government, has unveiled plans for an overhaul of the justice system which will significantly weaken the supreme court or critic say it will give at benjamin netanyahu government the how to undermine democracy by passing laws. the court themes unconstitutional. supreme court is due to debate,

2:11 am
being published from china under represent the true impact of the disease in terms of hospital admissions. in terms of i see you admissions, and particularly in terms of european union, is now recommending pre flight testing for passengers flying from china to the blog recommendation comes from the ease integrated political crisis response. group officials also recommend all travelers wear masks. they've encouraged member countries to introduce random testing of passengers and waste water airports. well, the u. s. has urged china to be more transparent about his covey data, front gate, this response, or me into either your bushel room. yeah. we also know that many people see that if the us had not politicized the pen to make it very on see it, but responded responsibly with an attitude of putting lighter those like the chinese government does the covert 19 situation, both within the u. s. and world wide would not have developed as it has to day. we
