9:04 pm
well, we expect him to touch down here in new york city at laguardia airport, probably within the next hour or so. he will then be s sorted in a motorcade right here to this hotel that bears his name, trump tower, where he once called home for many decades. and right now it is an absolute spectacle outside trump tower, as everyone waits for his arrival here, there are hundreds of journalists, hundreds of tourists, and just people passing by on the streets, trying to get a glimpse of trump when perhaps when he arrives. there's also about a couple of dozen pro, trump supporters as well. not to mention a huge security presence. as soon as trump arrives here at trump tower, it's unclear what he will do, quite frankly, he doesn't have anything on his agenda, but it's clear that he is not making this return trip to new york voluntarily. he is required to having to surrender 2 authorities on tuesday and he's here
9:05 pm
arriving here now a day before in order to get ready for that appearance that will have to make in front of the district attorney's office here in new york city. and also in front of a judge tomorrow on tuesday as well, but an absolute for lack of a better word, a circus right now, outside trump tower. as everyone waits for his arrival to see what trump might do when he arrives here. and perhaps because of scenes and sucks is like that take us through the security arrangements which are being put in place to make sure the circus doesn't turn into a security nightmare. yeah, that's right. it has been going on for several days now. up until last week, when there was speculation that trump could be indicted, the security apparatus involved in this involves the secret service, the f, b i the new york police department, as well as other security at the court house as well. this is
9:06 pm
a massive security undertaking. potentially thousands of police officers involved. there will be, we think dozens of secret service agents surrounding trumpet all time. this is happening all happening in the heart of new york city. one of the biggest cities, not only in the us, but in the world, there have been calls for protests by both sides. and as we previously heard from the mayor and the police commissioner here, calling on everyone to remain calm and a not a protest in a violent manner if they choose to protest. but clearly this is unprecedented. we've said that word many times over the last couple hours and days. but this really is unprecedented to have a former president having to turn himself in surrender to authorities. and the security apparatus around a former president is tight at all times. but given the circumstances given where
9:07 pm
this is happening and given the unknowns about this never happening before in u. s. history, a former president having to turn himself into authorities, there's just an incredible amount of security at multiple layers. all right, thanks so much gabriel. i guess you're going to have a really busy day ahead of you tomorrow. a come back to you. no doubt. later from on that russia is accusing ukraine of august rating a bomb attack that killed a prominent military blogger on sunday. the law glen petoskey was killed, and 32 people wounded in the blast. russian police of arrested a woman in connection with the killing st. pete's his book. also jabari has more from moscow. this is 26 year old dowdy at tripple vall, being questioned by russian authorities in saint petersburg. i brought a statue there that blew up. she sat, who gave you the statue, they ask, can i tell you later? she replies, the bug was handed to prominent military blogger, lad lind, or char sky. it exploded,
9:08 pm
killing him and injuring dozens of people on sunday evening. her pover has yet to provide a name and says she's been framed. the attack happens at a cafe in the heart of saint petersburg. the national anti terror committee, which is part of the russian security service, says it was planned, but the ukranian special services. a charge authorities in kia have denied. we expect that now. whereas also known the response, but evidently dusk, ah, how many people will be killed by keeping him here in moscow before russia? we'll the response. nobody knows exactly, but probably more time coming, more strong. we'll be response just he was speaking and events organized by the cyber funds, said movement, an association of people with patriarch view. he was
9:09 pm
a supporter of russia's invasion and the social media channel he launched to report on the so called special military operation. at more than half a 1000000 subscribers charged, he was a well known figure among crumbling supporters. seen here with daria gina who was killed in a car bomb attack in the moscow region in august. her father, alexander, duke, and a far right political philosopher was believed to be the intended target. the criminal says tarkey killing is an act of terror and that evidence implicates ukrainian special services without providing any further details. while these types of attacks are rare in russia, the planning and plotting behind them suggests that the battles on no longer confined to the dom by 3 sources of ari algae, 0 moscow. ukrainian president of a lot of means then ski is describing fighting around the east and city of back mode, as particularly hot. earlier the head of the wagner mercenary group fighting for moscow, said, his forces had raised the russian flag above an administration building in buck
9:10 pm
mode. kiev says it still holds the city though. the u. s. says ukraine is still fighting hard for bar mode. jonah, how reports now from key if it is extremely difficult independently to verify what is going on inside back move or what the status of that eastern city now is. heavily water and of course, fort over fiercely for months now. very little to any independent reporting coming out of this place. that has really no strategic value to either side, but is taken on huge symbolic significance to both sides to russia that desperately wants to be seen, to be re gaining momentum in the east and to ukraine. of course, that very much wants to be seen to continue to resist russia's efforts, and indeed to prevent it even from taking this one relatively modest sized regional center. so what we do have of these conflicting reports from both sides. the
9:11 pm
russians in the form of guinea pre goes in the head and founder of the wagner mercenary group, who says that his men flaunted and supplied video purporting to show them flaunting the wagner and russian flags on top of the administrative building in the east of back claiming therefore, that the city has in legal terms, fallen into russian hands that account heavily disputed by the ukrainians by the presidential administration and the east military command who insist that fighting is still going on, particularly around that administrative building and say, quote that the russians are very far from capturing anything. so clearly this is one to watch. but remember that you have guinea pre goes in, in particular, has on previous occasions, may claims of russian victory in the mood only to be proven quite quickly. wrong. don't know how al jazeera keeps nato secretary general yet installed humbug is

a mandatory death penalty for some offences. the heart warming story of this little earthquakes of either into care who's been reunited with their mother after nearly 2 months. and the u. s. c. and w, w e of become partners. find out that all about repeating the sport ah, global oil prices have risen sharply after some of the world's biggest producers announced output cuts on sunday. the opec clos group led by saudi arabia said, is slashing daily output by more than a 1000000 barrels a day. that cent price is up on the global oil markets. brent crude, a key benchmark, jumped more than 5 percent on monday to trade above $80.00. a barrel, the international energy agency,
9:14 pm
an independent watchdog says supplies were already stretched on the statement. it says the new opaque plus cuts risk exacerbating those strains and pushing up oil prices at a time when strong inflationary pressures are hurting vulnerable consumers around the world. i mean, a banker is chief opec corresponded at energy intelligence and energy information company joins us now from dubai. good to have you with us. so the suggestion there that these oil price of these production cuts are pushing the world into even riskier territory and it comes to inflation. do you agree with that analysis? i think this is a very partial analysis that are being communicated by a lot of the consumer states, especially in the west. however, allow me to explain why this cut took place. this cut represents a very strong message to the market at a time when you had
9:15 pm
a lot of speculation. and this speculation was driving the oil price down this cut came as a message to the market that speculators cannot run away with the market messaging . so, so it came in the kind of a reminder that opec is present. opec is active and opec is willing to step in with market management. now, it doesn't mean that these cuts are going to remain for the time being. they decided that they're going to start in may and to remain until the end of 2023. it doesn't mean that they won't be revised at some point, it'll depend on the market conditions. but the market at this point required a reset, especially after the banking crisis, which saw a lot of negative sentiment in the market. all right, so it sounds like you're saying that they didn't actually intend to push prices up . they wanted to stop the falling old prices,
9:16 pm
which were if you look for brent was down, it was trading at $80.00 a barrel at the end of last week compared with $95.00 a barrel in early october. as a clue, there was, there was a move going down, but has the price sanction in the last 24 hour shows, whatever the intention was, it is pushing prices up. now, does that mean they're losing control? no, it doesn't mean that they're losing control. then you very well when they took this action that it would raise prices up. and the reason that they took this action was, again, as i said, to send a message to the market. prices were say, were trading in the seventy's when we had the several banks collapse and then it moved to 80. but even, i mean, $80.00 hang on a price is going to stay. i mean, what was your expectation that price is going to stay high or continue rising. you're expecting that oil prices will definitely stay in the eighty's zone. and
9:17 pm
energy intelligence were even saying that $90.00 is back on the table given that the 2nd half of the year we're seeing stronger demand with the opening of china, etc. these are voluntary cuts and then there is a reason that it was framed in a voluntary cut agreement rather than the entire group having a formal agreement on what production policy is. it's easier to put together a voluntary cuts, and it's also easier to revise. so i think depending on where things go in the coming months, we might see revisions. all right. how important are all prices staying relatively high, shall we say full saudi arabia's vision 2030 projects to get funding? is that also part of what's going on behind the scenes of some of these countries need the cash of course they need a strong oil price to find many of these projects as you know,
9:18 pm
as part of vision 2030. there are many ambitious projects, but any better in that opec will really tell you that policy does not drive a crisis alone. sometimes there are many cases we're opec cut production, and you would see the market moving in the completely different direction. so controlling prices is not something that opec, and that's why they never announce a certain range that they were targeting course every budget, every country aspires to have a certain range to support their spending. but in this move in particular, and it's very nuanced, it's about market control. all right, thanks so much for your now's has been a good chat. thank you. i mean the back of her now former kosovo present hash. in fact, she is pleaded not guilty to all 10 charges he faces at the beginning of a war, crimes trial at the hague, sachi and 3 other former commanders in the kosovo liberation army are charged with overseeing a campaign of torture, murder and persecution,

9:21 pm
it's not totally the just war of the k l. a that's being judged. the state of casa, is also on trial with the know they all not only condemning these people, but they are condemning the effort the, was that the whole world supported. what's not in dispute is that this trial will be lengthy. the prosecution says it needs 2 years just to set out its case. harry faucet al jazeera, andrea lorenzo a couple of earlier headed the economics unit of the international civilian office in costco. he says the conclusion of a report by the council of europe form the basis for the trial ending a to decade delay. the reason why it took 2 decades to begin this trial is given in the report, which is a basis for this trial, dis, council of europe report published 1st in 2010 and then approved in 2011 by a 3 senator. and this report, a summarizes ample alleged evidence of the war crimes and also the
9:22 pm
violent methods by which the former k leaders later use our military power to gain political and economic power in this report. i summarizes this evidence and says that the impunity of these people is explained by the elimination and intimidation of witnesses on one hand. and by the fact that resting powers decided not to act upon the evidence over handling, he says overwhelming evidence of the war crimes or these gary leaders. this is what the report says and the report is in fact the basis for this trial. so there is a, there is also, there are also some political choices made by western bowers, those who were in charge of the reconstruction of gossip after the war malaysia law house of parliament has voted to remove the mandatory death penalty
9:23 pm
for crimes such as murder and drug trafficking, instead of capital punishment, offenders will face life, imprisonment or caning, depending on the crime law will now go to the upper house and then to the king could be signed. malaysia has suspended execution since 2018 while the amendments to the law being discussed. lawrence lewis and column for now with more the amendments, the bills were passed via a simple voice vote with almost no opposition. and that's because these are bills that have bipartisan support. they've been several years in discussion because more and more over the last few years, there's been an understanding that the death sentence may not be the deterrent that people think it is. and that it also is unjust. because it removes the discretionary power of judges, and it means that judges cannot take into account mitigating factors like a history of abuse or history of mental illness in the person who committed the crime. there are several parts to these amendments. one is that it does away with
9:24 pm
mandatory capital punishment, and so these are $511.00 offences including murder and terrorism. so now it means that the judges now have a discretion. it doesn't do away with capital punishment or death penalty completely. but it means that it is no longer mandatory and discretion can be used . and earlier florence louis met the wife of a man hoping his death sentence will now be reviewed under the new law. oh, funny thought dow, it's husband has been on death row for 13 years. he was found guilty of murder. she's raised their son on her own, a lot pretty badly when my son went to kindergarten. he didn't have a father. it was just me a single mom. when he started primary school, he didn't have a father then neither one of his now 16, his father has not even held his hand. malaysia is now aiming to abolish the mandatory death penalty. there. currently 11 offences with death is the automatic
9:25 pm
punishment of the $1300.00 inmates on death row. nearly 70 percent were convicted of drug trafficking in malaysia, carrying even a small amount of elicit substance comes under that definition. human rights group say it doesn't meet the threshold of most serious crimes on the international law. the proposed amendments will allow the countries highest court to replace death sentences with life imprisonment and caning. these reforms have been on the table for several years now, and a moratorium on executions has been in place since 2018. the minister in charge of legal reform says the abolition of the mandatory death penalty is aimed at valuing the sanctity of life. while ensuring justice and fantasy for all anti death penalty advocates. welcome to move and say malaysia also needs to look at reforming other
9:26 pm
aspects of its penal system including rehabilitation. most of us in asia pacific specific grants to really prioritize of trinity punishment. we don't really ask how question once we punish a guy and once they come out, what you want do with him, do we expect to sunday reintegrate better society and do good or do we expect them to re offend on the route? for neetha, there is at least a chance that her husband's case might be reviewed. i know he did wrong, but please don't hang. can you give him another trend and release him? you can change the changes will still have to be passed in the upper house of parliament and signed into law by the king. before they come into effect, florence louis al jazeera quite loom poor. our baby rescued from the rubble of february's earthquakes in turkey has been reunited with her mother, nettie. 2 months after she was saved. that's giving hope to many families. still looking for missing relatives was all sorted. our reports from a stumble,

many more. but nearly 2 months on some families are still searching for their relatives. according to official figures, around 1300 bodies have not been identified. and more than 200 people had been declared missing. now that baby routine has been reunited with her mother. it gives hope to the family is still suffering from the agonizing wait list and said that o jazeera is stumble. students in nashville have walked out of classrooms and are marching in protest to the tennessee state capital, demanding a stop to gun violence. the march comes off the last week, shooting at the covenant school, where 3 students and 3 adults were killed. police found the shooter own 7 firearms, which will all bolt legally. parisians have voted to banned the hiring of electric scooters in the city. net 90 percent of the balance costs were against the rental of battery powered vehicles. that is less than 8 percent of eligible voters to pass
9:29 pm
in the referendum dash of us has more now from paris. writing an excuse to like this will soon be a thing of the false in paris because the man has decided to ban them from september. it follows a referendum in the city, 90 percent of people who voted fed that they won't scuse to be ban, mainly because they say they are a nuisance that fed up with seeing them through across papers like this. and many people also say that dangerous not only for uses, but also for pedestrians for people though he uses well, they'll be very disappointed because they say they're good 0 missions way to zip around the city, particularly because there's so much traffic imperative. and some people also say that the way the referendum was actually carried out wasn't very fair because very few people knew about them for a little public. see just a few posters around the city. that isn't true,
9:30 pm
said books. it's ridiculous because only 7 percent. so voted, and that leads to a band with, with me, that is what's going on. i'm calling it is, are a nightmare in paris. people drive carelessly that dangerous. so for people safety, the ban is a good thing. i don't use them myself, but it's a form of transport that helps a lot of people. so a ban seems pretty excessive. the french government says that it doesn't agree with the ban. what's needed is title regulation. they've just lot new measures for school uses. nevertheless, power is now becomes the biggest city in the world to ban electric scooters. even those people can still have their own private ones. but it will be interesting to see if other cities in the world decide to follow suit still had an al jazeera, a new report, lays bare human rights abuses in south sudan and calls for a culture of impunity to end. and the box close in on the top play off seed in the best of the action from bnb.
9:31 pm
ah hello. that things have warmed up across parts of the middle east, particularly across more northern areas. it has fault cooler in the south, but we will see temperatures got to pick up here over the next few days. instead they will be coming down across the levant, thanks to a weather system that's working its way across to kia. bringing some blustery winds to eastern areas of the mediterranean, we could see a potential sandstone once again for the likes of iraq. as those winds start to pick up the temperature in baghdad. heating 34 degrees celsius on wednesday, a launching dry picture, except for coastal areas of saudi arabia affecting western yemen as well, and some of that rain trickling across into the horn of africa. now we are expecting the rain to pick up a former rocco,
9:32 pm
we could see some heavy rain start to move into more sensual areas on tuesday. some of that rain as well picking up, moving across the likes of tunisia and northern algeria for the wet weather. however, we have to head to that central band, we've got some fierce thunderstorms rumbling their way across the democratic republic of congo and angola, with thunderstorms in luanda through to the end of the week. much dryer for the south of this in particular for south africa just a few showers coming into places like s were teeny, but lots of sunshine for cape town. ah. a meeting of mine all art is kind of suggesting other worlds to us saying what would a world like this be like the fan yoga mainstream economics. if that happens in any other profession, they will be fired. yeah. or not just fire. they would go to prison. musical innovative, brian, you know, meets renowned economist hygiene chang. i see

9:34 pm
come back here watching al jazeera time to recap our headlines. former us president donald trump is on his way to new york ahead of a court appearance on tuesday. plane took off from florida a short while ago, being charged in connection with a payment. his lawyer made to an adult film star. russia is accusing ukraine of orchestrating the bomb attack that killed a prominent military blogger on sunday. log lantus abaski was at a cafe in saint petersburg. female suff has been arrested in question. global prices have risen sharply. also some of the world's biggest produces announced output costs of more than a 1000000 barrels a day. brent crude, a key benchmark jump more than 5 percent on monday. but again, if i says military is denying responsibility for killing several boys at a base near the town of where he go was born view. as you may find some of the
9:35 pm
following images to be distressing. the video posted on social media shows men dressed, emerged for uniforms, walking among 7 bodies. the story was initially reported in french media. 2 french reporters were expelled from beginning fast on sunday. rights groups have a q soldiers of widespread abuses against civilians as they fight on groups linked to al qaeda. and i saw the mother of one of those boys who doesn't want to be identified blaine's volunteer soldiers, me lad, and young because he knew me and i once told drama not to wander the street. i told him to stay close to his grandmother's house since he was a stranger, and that it was risky to wander around because some people my associate him as being a member of an extremist group. the people i blame of those who took him away. that is to say the military volunteer flashes. when we went enough, the chief, he told us that they never take someone and released them. now that it's happened,
9:36 pm
i cry a lot, but i can't change anything. sam med nick is west africa, corresponded at the associated press. she was part of the team that filed the investigative report for the news agency, joins us now from dot com. good to have you with us. so let's start with the ultimately, the most important question. i guess you've done your agency, you've done a report. does it draw conclusions as to who is responsible for extra judicial killings of those boys? according to what we found, the reporting that we did, the killings took place. adam military base, northwest of white and the uniform and the equipment is very consistent with what we know the per kina. courses to how this was, uniforms and equipment, in some cases, given by the european union by the united states over the past decade, decade or so. and some of the security forces in the video are seen wearing bertina
9:37 pm
felt like on their arm. so according to what we found, it appears to be security forces in a military base, but have carried out killing the lima, as i'm sure you know, from the military and all it says is that they're not responsible. and that anyone can basically put on a uniform. tell us how you approach that suggestion according to the evidence you've come across. well, according to what experts, they say that that is not the modus operandi of armed groups. that arms don't necessarily put on describe themselves military forces and kill people, especially when the minds of the communities in many cases didn't add up with what expert to compet extra say, how arms groups work also. so yeah, as i heard it was in the military base and
9:38 pm
a lot of the vehicles that they had and you know, from they were, weren't, were consistent with what we've seen the military forces to have and just to kind of find did you get video evidence of the actual moment of the killings and you are able to see, you know, people killing these boys or was it more of a case of people mulling around with the bodies already there on the floor and dead . and what you see in the video are use men in military fatigues walking around the boys who are lying motionless on the ground. there is one part of the video where a man wearing military panic says maybe a looks like one of the boys and still appears to be breathing. he goes over to him and he throws a large rock on his head. we were able to uncover that this boy, his name was adam. he was 16 years old and his family said that he was feeding the conference and was rounded up by security forces and then taken to this military
9:39 pm
base. very heartbreaking story. did you share these findings with authorities and if so, what kind of response did you get from them? we initially reached out to authorities and told them that we were investigating, looking into the video and want to see what their response was. and they said that this was not their security forces. they said that our group dress up either military and he'll meet in order to pin the blame on the government. they also said that security forces volunteer fighters go to human rights train any and that they ha, military observers with their trips. and we know that some journalists have been asked to leave the countries. i'm curious to know. have you faced any blowback after this report? we have not heard from the government since the report came out. i bet who no dice librium published last week and since then 2 journalists didn't have to leave the
9:40 pm
country because back we have not had a response from the government. all right, thank you so much for coming and sharing your experience in collecting and putting together this report. sam med nika, decades of conflicts have led to wide spread human rights abuses in south sedan. that's according to the un commission on human rights in the ledges. during the past year, the governor of unity states and the left tenant general of the south sudan people's defense forces were responsible for extra judicial killings and the tax on civilians. it says those crimes were part of a broader pattern of abuses committed by government to military officials that included sexual violence and torture. they remain unpunished. the commission is calling for urgent measures to end the culture of impunity. it says officials should be held accountable and comply with international humanitarian law. bonnie africa is a member of the un commission on human rights in south sudan,
9:41 pm
