5:02 am
for hello, and welcome to the program. a special council has been appointed to investigate us president joe biden's handling of sensitive government documents. a 2nd set of papers has been found this time at his private home in delaware. the 1st batch of files was on covet at one of biden's former offices 2 months ago, but was only made public on monday on whitehouse correspond, can be hook, it has the story. the discovery of a 2nd batch of classified documents. this time inside the garage of president jo biden's, private residence, has made it difficult for binding to quell this latest political controversy. people know i take classified documents of classroom material seriously. whitehouse lawyers revealed the documents for found recently and relate to biden's time as vice president under president barack obama. the white house lawyers and says they immediately turn the documents over to the national archives. still,
5:03 am
the department of justice is appointing us attorney robert her as special counsel to investigate whether biden broke the law. i will ensure that mister her receives all the resources he needs the conductor's work. the white house insist it's cooperating and is denying any impropriety. it's in the statement of her from his lawyer, richard, somber, and at the end he said, we are confident that they are thorough review will show that these documents were inadvertently misplaced. still, it's in administration under increased scrutiny earlier this week while bided was at a summit in mexico. the white house admitted lawyers found similar secret papers and a washington d. c. think tank called the pen biden center. the president says he doesn't know what's in those documents, but the discovery has prompted charges of hypocrisy. in january
5:04 am
2022 classified documents were found at the florida residents of former president donald trump. a justice department special council is also looking into that case. biden has called trump totally irresponsible from his handling the classified materials, another fo paul by the, by an administration, but treating lot differently based upon your political beliefs. each one president trump one way, but treats president by the whole different way. president biden's republican critics are also questioning why it took so long for the biden administration to reveal the existence of the documents. the 1st batch was discovered on november 2nd just days before the congressional mid term election. it only became known to the public this week. kimberly held can al jazeera, the white house. karen greenberg is the director of the center national security at
5:05 am
the fordham university school of law. she says the investigations likely been launched to stop accusations of bite and being treated differently to donald trump . i actually think these 2 cases are very much apples and oranges. you have a case of somebody who willingly for a long time and defiantly refuse to turn over documents. we're talking about hundreds of documents. in the case of trump, we're talking about less than a dozen. in the case of bible, we know for a fact that some of the trump documents were highly secretive, highly classified documents. we don't know anything of the sort about by them. and i think in a way this is just a misuse of our, of our attention and where our attention needs to be over so many important issues . but i think that's why garland did if he wants to be seen as a attorney general, who goes by the book and probably thought in this way, he could camp down some of the political occupations going that way. of course the,
5:06 am
i'm not sure to work that way. i think the sooner that they get to make some confusion with the special master about the bind documents and let us know what they are and whether or not there was any intent or whether it was just sort of negligence and, and whether or not it was binding or whether or not it was somebody else. we have fewer questions about that when it comes to trump. and the issue of intent is important in both cases and fundamentally seems to separate those cases. somalis president has called on his fellow citizens to come together to fight al. sure. bob hassan's shake. mahmoud described the arm group as bed bugs who must be eradicated . the address crowds in mogadishu during a rally, organized by the government, new to declare who on the group when he came to power. last year, osh bob has been fighting the government since 2007 linked to other only you're not
5:07 am
to that which you see someone you don't know in your neighbourhood, please ask him who you? if you can't ask him, please call us and tell us that there's an unknown person in your neighborhood. then we will ask him, what are you doing? where did you come from? nothing wrong with that is notice of you bothering your neighbors. let's get more on this with hood on ali. she is a senior advisor to the somali president. she joins us now live from columbia, maryland, thank you for taking the time to speak to us. can you explain how the government expects the general population to help fight? i'll show bob. why in good evening? thank you for having me. i mean, the president has been on this quest to sci fi shout from somebody since his election time in may. the somali government has been on the offensive fighting show, rob, particularly instead of the central region of somebody,
5:08 am
and the government has already successfully cleared, shut up from 2 major strongholds of option of it. so the central somalia, today's gathering in militia really is an extremely important gathering just to indicate that the government is serious around eradicating from the country. but also militia, being the capital of the city and has suffered, i stream the by the brutality of our ship. it is only befitting that the city comes out and in support of the president's agenda to eradicate under these ordinary citizens. is it a little reckless to put a people's on the live lives of the line like this? why i think if you've been paying attention in what's happening in the mission across the malia, sheila has been a brutal enemy of this amount of people, especially in the capital. people have been under attack for the last 15 years,
5:09 am
particularly the last 5 years. just maybe a month or 2 ago, we've had a massive bombing in the capital that i've had claimed the live the life of 130 people. so the more you know, the residents of militia are not based at any day at any minute. at any given time . so i think it's, it's about time that the citizens actually rise up and claim their own security backed by the government and we are seeing across the country a glance. well, again, she lived in the government is actually needing and winning the war against safety is the one that when you being bomb every other day when your children are being used to commit crimes. when extortion is the norm for lab, again, somebody business prison know in the face, low ash about a little salon, and i think that is the message that the president to live with today. what else is
5:10 am
the govern government on since it came to power last year to battle against bob? so really it's been that to me. frontal assault on ship one is the military assault that has been waged in south central to the president and the government has really launched an offensive on it a logical component of really trying to gain back the stolen faith and religion that she has been used using for the past 15 years, i guess it's a lot of people to be starting for what it's not. and number 3 is really closing the tab economic tab that should have been enjoy within my 1015 years through the absorption of taking money to make social from business people and average citizens. so from economy i barriers to social and political pressures
5:11 am
through military offensive. they have been really been reduced difficultly for the last 5 to 7 months, and the president clearly outlines ultimately to see shamrock is the only way somebody could move forward. anyone who showed up anybody who doesn't, didn't know, i really know the person has been unequivocal that anyone who does not denounce publicly, but also support efforts to get reduction across the money. what is it about this group that has made it so hard for the government to defeated its been around since 2007. that's a very long time. no, absolutely. and i think 1st of all that sharon has used the fear tactic extremely well. obviously indiscriminate killing in,
5:12 am
in highly populated areas like the show has been really a painful experience for the amount of citizens matter, even if they're not in somalia. love to live in. they asked for as well because we have families and people who are loved ones that i'm constantly being killed. so that sort of not knowing when but target and where and who is going to be has really taken the psyche of the salamis. but also using religion as a tool has been a strong, successful up until now. and also the weakness of the government institutions and corruption and all those things are really empowered, chablis for the past 15 years. but we've seen in 6 months. so bob has been degraded to almost to the, to the point where the are unable to defend against government soldiers on the battlefield. but the, every time there is
5:13 am
a battle that they do concede and move. so idea is now to mobilize the somebody population to peel that fear factor, but it really is i see a factor that has been quickly the country in keeping show up in position really good to speak to dr. hud and senior advisor to the somali president, speaking to us from columbia, maryland be in europe in all me, says a regional force which back the government have pulled out of a city into grime as part of a peace deal. and horace, special forces have withdrawn from the key strategic sissy of she re, the french and german foreign ministers visit to the therapy a day off to grand rebels and out. they were starting to surrender their heavy weapons to gray and separatists have been fighting the army for more than 2 years. ukraine says its forces is still holding on to the east and town of solid up the fi singh is tough now. so despite the russian mastery,
5:14 am
wagner group saying it's taken control of the town, the kremlin has warned against declaring a victory prematurely suggestion. fighting is not over. ukraine has said the battles in this area have been some of the bloodiest in this war so far. even rush, we're fighting is face in the solid. our direction, the buck march. despite the difficult situation, ukrainian soldiers, desperately fighting rusher is trying to break through all defense lines. without any luck to capture sola dahl and the enemy has high losses. the area outside the city is covered with the bodies of potions troops. the russians a, moving over the own corpses, solid army has a population of around 10000, but it's location makes it a key strategic target. it's just 12 kilometers from the regional capital bar. moot, which russia has been trying to take for several months. and the network of tunnels
5:15 am
in the town, salt mines could be used to safely house troops and equipment for an advance channel strap. it is near the outskirts of the town with more on the fighting. were about 5 kilometers outside of buff move solid ari's around 10 kilometers in that direction. i'm not sure whether you're going to be able to pick this audio up, but there's a lot of heavy sharing going on all around this area. we in the last few minutes as well heard heavy machine gun fire. this is checkpoint, very close to us as well. we will prevent you from going any further towards that check point seems as if there are only allowing the military through i was here to and a half, 3 months ago. and it's fair to say that the situation has dramatically changed since day. and i mean, we used to go down this road and into back moved, then it is a lot louder, a lot more heavy shelling than then. we've actually been speaking to soldiers this
5:16 am
morning who beat inside buck mood and asking them about the situation in both moot and solid. they said to us that russian forces were in the center of solely dog. they said that they were in control of that salt mine. they described russian tanks in the center of solid r as well. they said that they were concerns probably here such that there are concerns among the ukrainian forces about possible escape routes for the ukrainian forces inside solid. all he said they were trying to do was protect a western roots out of the town. we've been speaking to some of the soldiers behind his head this in this vehicle. these people have been getting ready to evacuate soldiers out of the moods. they say that there's still a lot of civilians inside, but we also how many civilians they were inside solid. all he estimated around $500.00 civilians still inside sorted as the fighting goes on. so

5:29 am
years since one of the largest non nuclear blasts in recent history. and lebanon's leadership has been standing in the way of accountability, trying to replace the judge because i chose that this politically automated people got a gun for recalls. so it's a big, big do we will know that they managed to do so because of the board was just, you know, it's gone so far, the authorities haven't been able to appoint a 2nd judge. every judge in dead must know though to precautions of them are going to the duty to the divergence and to the covering of justice. but officials have blocked the investigation for more than a year. now. they have filed lawsuit against the lead investigator tonic baton,
