9:02 pm
the english family were man city or leading lest the 3 now. meanwhile, newcastle suffer blow to their wholesale qualifying for next season's chant is a crushing defeat against actonville. ah, so we begin this news hour with violence across sedan where the army is fighting the country's biggest paramilitary group. the r s f rapid support forces. ah, there's been heavy gun fire in the capitol and smoke has been rising over the cartoon skyline since the early morning, but there's still no clear picture of who controls what a both sides accused the other of starting the violence. at least 3 civilians have been killed and several have been injured. at the fighting is concentrated in the sudanese capital, the rapid support forces have taken control of the headquarters of the state tv
9:03 pm
network. there's also been heavy fighting near the presidential palace and at the international airport. 350 kilometers northwest of cartoon. there have been clashes around an airport in the city of mary. meanwhile, in southern dar for the sudanese army still controls the airport in the town of nila, but violence has also been reported. there have been morgan joins us live from cartoon . heber what's happening as we speak at this hour. it's about 8 pm local your time . yes indeed, serial. now it's been nearly 12 hours since there starts of the military confrontation between the rapid support forces and the army. and we still have no clear idea with regard to who controls which facility. here we've spoken to a some commanders in the armed forces and they say that the record support for says, have not been able to take over the army headquarters. something that they have been trying to do in the, in the, in the early morning hours. and that the military is still in control of the army
9:04 pm
headquarters. then there's the issue of the republican palace or the presidential palace. that is both sides claim that they have control of that of that building. it's a symbolic building. the head of the content of the government or at the head of the rapids support forces both don't stay there, but they have offices there. and whoever managers to control or that that, that a building will have some kind of a symbolic, i would say, a extra points or over the other. so it looks like they're both trying to show that they have the upper hand by trying to claim that they both have control of the presidential palace. then there's the state television, we've spoken to staff where they say that a b rappaport forces are inside the dvd state television. but around the vicinity there are the sudanese armed forces and they are fighting with the are safe. so while the r s f is inside the state television, they don't have full control yet. this is obviously an escalation of a situation that has been going all day and the capital homeroom and in other parts
9:05 pm
of the country. the heavy fighting spreads through whom extension between the sudanese army and powerful paramilitary force. still over into the streets. the army says it's defending itself and attacked by the rapid support forces across the capitol. it's now does it anything before us as a rebel groups? now we, the army did not initiate any flight. we were present in our command and we were surprised with the attack at about 910 this morning. coupled with an assault on my residence, the army did not deploy or make any movement. the army headquarters and presidential palace are under the control of the general command. we do not wish to see this country slipping into war. however, we must teach a lesson to any non regular militia. but the rapid support for to see their bases were attacked by the army. this battle will pave the way to
9:06 pm
a peaceful solution. all those criminals will stand trials. i cannot give a time and a bit to the fighting. how we the, we are edmond to end it with the least of losses. the all flights have been canceled international airport, where armed men are on the tarmac and rapid support forces entered the television service. dan tv, about one minus them. no. this was the moment the stations broadcast was cut off. i think i think has been confined to the campus. there's been violence in north and south of dar for west and north cord to find faith as well as murder. we in northern put them both sides, claim control of major facilities bear and in other areas. but so far it's been hard to confirm who has the upper hand potential between the army and the rapid support for 6 months after military takeover in 2021. and behind and when talks to
9:07 pm
integrate the earth into the army stalled, i really feel very sad then very angry. actually i'm in the age and i see i see a 2 bed. most of them share when you both of you, you have been in caski or this grid devolution. and you already committed an incentive. speaking in viet nam, usdoc i to re upstate anthony blinking said washington with continued to support for dance transition to a civilian lead. government, it's a fragile situation. there are other actors that may be pushing against that, that progress. but this is a real opportunity to finally carry for the civilian la transition. and one that we and other countries are trying to are to bolster people across to dan are bracing themselves for more fighting
9:08 pm
a new crisis and an uncertain future. he been morgan, alta 0, or to a take a closer look at how we got here. the most recent bout of instability in sudan began in 2019. that's when the military ousted long time leader omar, the sheer, after months of mass protests. then the army moved against the protesters. but under international pressure, it was forced to assign a power sharing agreement with civilian groups. elections at the time were set for 2023. in october 2021. however, yet another military takeover unseated then prime minister of dela hm. doc was seen as the face of the transition to democracy. on december 5th, last year, military leaders signed another deal with political groups one promising to pave the way for fair elections and a return to civilian rule. but 2 weeks ago, sedan was set to take the next step and disputes about how to integrate the rapid support forces into the army got in the way. i'm god for read. as tanya is
9:09 pm
a sudanese politician and the assistant chief of staff, the former prime minister della hum dock. he joins us from cartoon. sir, do you have any contact with either the recess or the army rotc and the or the way we saw as well. now any non getting the meeting that we got of it, they say that they have b y. ready well, so the r f f claim that they are fighting for democracy and they are calling on the
9:10 pm
sudanese people to join them. what are your thoughts on that? you need to let me know they won't be killing or 70 and the problem you need on the role that we will have by that if you haven't you haven't and haven't. ready
9:11 pm
and haven't spent the medium by the we've gone black, maybe the school. i mean by now you fly or be honest, i'm me on the bottom that. ringback when they ran by 5 d b, i can just jump in if i can jump in, where does that fight for power? leave the, the transition toward civilian rule incident. it had to be in by the
9:12 pm
2021 because i mean by many of those go out too many a lot of them being brought me by right now. it was not have me. ready even on the most out at the beginning and right now is going to be to water. this is going to be in my life.
9:13 pm
all right, i've gotten very tired, sidney's politician, the assistant chief of staff, the former prime minister della home dog. thank you for joining us on the program today. let's focus for a moment on what exactly the r s. f is sedans, rapids support forces. well, the unit was formed in 2013 to find the fight arm groups in the door for region. it was later used in crackdowns on anti government protests. the rapids support forces led to response to rallies in cartoon in june 2019, in which 123 people were killed and hundreds were injured. last month talks between the paramilitary units and the army failed to reach an agreement on when it would be integrated into the armed forces. the rapids support forces as it needs 10 years . while the army wants only 2 or 8000 years, mohammed has coverage to then extensively. he's with us live here in the studio. help us bring us some of your knowledge. help us understand what you understand. 10
9:14 pm
years, 2 years. why is this causing an all out conflicts right now between sedans, to biggest arm groups. but certainly assuming that the 2 sides are not on the same page when the, the civilian components or the civilian players are talking about 2 or 3 years transition to democracy. and we have a, a mil, a part of militia that wants to stay in power for 10 years. thus that's 2 different things. so it's 2 different sedans them interacting in, possibly, you know, in the, on the scene. and it's the hand and the blue, the head of the ourself has been accused of having the purpose of actually becoming the head of cit steady on board hung. so it's a power struggle between 2 men, basically. and this vindicates, in the eyes of the general public, the calls and the protests that have been going on for years, for the military to be away from power. the civilians, hon. telling the military,
9:15 pm
your role is over, you have ousted omar bashir. you have saved the country, now leave it for the technocrats, leave it for the people who know how to of the country. and in general, brohannon has agreed to that as an e. they have signed a framework. he has said ok. we're going to once again because it's not the 1st time, but we're going to once again try to transition this country to civilian rule. so the army was on board with this transition. was this? well, that's another, that's a completely different game, a civil because if you follow up, should have been following up. what has been discussed since then. the army was calling for a short a transition period than the civilians themselves. so it's a very complicated, it was, the civilians were saying that the army is infiltrated by the promulgation islamists and lamar this year, the top all the leader, the humble club in his men, his henchmen are still within the army. his self saw the civilians have been asking
9:16 pm
for a longer transition because they think that it takes a longer transition with them on top with them in power for them to be able to prepare them so and to make sure the army has been purged from the from the element the islamist l, a root outs, what they see as september, earliest this takes us and this takes us on another tangent, you know, but let's go back to our self. so the error stuff is another completely another, another part of the complexity here and it is a different scenario. it is a different discussion than the discussion that has been going on between the army and the civilian. so it said it's a tripartite, it's like it, 3 the triangle going on trying owens the r s, and we had the orleans, we had the army and you have yourself. so the, as of has been accused of trying to play a completely different game, trying to achieve completely different goals. neither the goals of the military nor the goals of the civilians. this is a group that came from the west of sudan from western sedan. it's mainly a tribal group from southern dot 4 and their traditional role or the,
9:17 pm
the role until until recently was to help the government curb this court of discontent or dissent. father in the west like they were used to fight against the enemies of the government. the opposition in dar for ethnic rebellions and so on air. and that's why they were accused of being, you know, just like, you know, an he'd guns see what i mean. but recently the man leading this force he has grown in power and prestige. he now has his own relations in the, in outside sudan. he receives money from the e u to hell because he's using his men to work against the head of the are a surface valley by the european. yes. partly funded by the european union in a contract with the e u. 22 patrol the desert against against illegal migration and a guest graphics. and so topic of human traffic and any other kind of contraband
9:18 pm
issue if you will. and he has been working with the united of america here, so there are reports about ties with each. okay, so it's like a state within the state. so when we talk about ourselves, we're not talking about the the, the normal dialogue, political dialogue between at 4 han, representing the military and the civilian parties. this is a completely different scenario, and the civilians are now vindicated. they have been saying, you're not good for power. the military are not good to rule the country because the what they know is only destruction. what they know is only fighting. yes, they can change the regime, but they can't all country. is there any one, is there a 3rd party, another country, perhaps that would have any kind of leverage in this situation to mediate between the army and the r s f. the understanding is that all those countries that are paying or, or funding any side this side or the other side can really have leverage if they
9:19 pm
want. right? if you are and you have leverage, yes, we have it for us obviously. yes. so how many countries that have the possible the capability to talk to some of these parties and say, hey, he should do this, otherwise we will not fund you anymore. even the e can do that with that had done the, they can tell him, look, we have paid you to do this and this we did not pay you to take over the power in cotton. so now, no, this is not, we're not, we don't agree on this, right? they can, they can funding to support on the bus just one example. but you have other countries, other countries that can talk to audible hon. countries can talk to our us a this is my understanding, you're asking mom and um, thank you so much for your insights, obviously will stay abreast than you keep a surprised of developments. thank you very much. awesome. well, earlier i spoke to conflict analyst mohammed alameda ahmed, and he explained the rapid support forces strength is in the ground forces. and that's why they're targeting your bases the upper hand in the beginning,
9:20 pm
the fittest hours of the war. it was for the if, because they did actually take different over of the airport of, of the decision. and they were about even to taken over the house of behind the head of the military himself. but i do believe that the intervention of the army by the error striking, has ex, was actually big blue shield in the city. got and now the counter, the attack and the is starting to contain the situation. and now the military is duty and this is what the f is trying to do. they are trying to neutralize the, the fire of the armis. it plays so they can bully them. they can dead. the due date is the fighting and the ground. but inside of the people, this can give the out of an advantage in front of the me because they have long
9:21 pm
experience fight in similar to the war in that fraud and other places towards them . since then, as well as the, you know, the can also limit did the fire of the army when the, when they that them to inside the neighborhoods of, of got to or we can now speak to dr. l. l d. no good. he's a founding member of the unified doctors office in sudan and joins us from cartoon . a doctor, it's hard to get a detailed picture of what's going on. but the reporting is that 3 civilians have been killed. what have the doctor's in car 2 scene? all right, doctor, i'm not sure you hear that. so i'm just gonna repeat the question. i was saying it's hard to to get a detailed picture of what's going on and especially how the civilians have been caught in the middle of this fighting. what are the doctors seen because we're hearing reporting of 3 people being killed in cartoon today.
9:22 pm
yes or thank you for the interview i. we are contending door and what's happening today and tomorrow, whatever. who is responsible for that and was came to be the 1st one responsible for. yeah, chris was difficult situation right now. i'd like to reach the hospitals for the medical group and for the medical doctors and the paramedics and all the people who are working the hospital or because of the day great in patient, or the between patient or fire, fire shooting in the streets. definitely i could teach in the hospital day because of i just didn't, i didn't near the military base and up to now there is a big or a he i'm afraid we've lost the audio. there are protesters have returned to the streets of israel. now for a 15th consecutive saturday to condemn prime minister benjamin netanyahu plans to
9:23 pm
weaken the supreme court's powers. let's go to live pictures from tel aviv, the israeli government put his judicial changes on the whole last month. but that period of delay is coming to an end. the changes are due back in the israeli parliament at the end of the month when it returns from recess. so sir, dar joins us now from the protest and sale of eve or so do you feel that the violence of the past week has impacted this protest at all? well, we see that there is heavy security measures. of course, all the israel and television, hemp love to get out on to come on stage where adaptive protests are currently being taken out. taken taking place here. but i have to apparently, as we can see, that pounds of houses is radish all the time to this process. it didn't the fact that people here and people, the protesters here that they have spoken to, they're saying that the ongoing security crisis, or the violence have been reger by their own government. so last week is right.
9:24 pm
occupational courses, storm the lock, sophomores get their forcefully remove the palestinian overnight worshippers. they have injured thousands of them and i rush around the rest of their own $400.00. so the flu, just as many of this is here, are saying that he is have been gone purposefully by the israeli government to stop it. protest here, however, they said that they're not going to allow the government to use the security crisis as a, as an excuse to, to stop the protest. and they said they're going to continue protesting because they said the market and these country is now under the danger. and they said that if that part of the proposal by the government is it pass, dan, it's going to destroy the checks and balances and also the separation off it. poverty here is that this is that is going to destroy the democracy and further detail here to security crisis and even ignite the violence once again, resume seen more than 3 months of unrelenting protests. what's the path ahead for
9:25 pm
benjamin netanyahu? well, his situation now is that one of the now to, and the, of all, because on one hand, there is a pressure ramping off from the states. on the other hand, he is dealing with the hardliners in his own gardener. so this government is the most frightening government in its roused history. people here ought for the person that you have the judicial overall. but overall therefore doesn't i guess or government. on the other hand, nathaniel is being accused by the hardliners in his, in his cabinets such as that, that the minister of the national security. it's somewhat vancouver asking that and yell to be more to have more heavier hands of. so he's santovic's now between this teeth and the hardliners in his government. so it's quite difficult to keep this very fragile coalition now at the moment of negotiations mediated by israeli president hassle. but now also rally in parliament is having
9:26 pm
a legislative brack break. so right after that and then you could come back once department is open again, i could pass that bill that proposal in one day and they professed this year. what extremely worried about that scenario? that's why they say that they are going to continue to protest and they say to stop in the judicial over the whole is not enough. they say they are trying to force the government to resign. the resume cert are reporting from tel aviv. thank you very much. meanwhile, in occupied east jerusalem orthodox christians is celebrating the holy fire easter ritual. but worshippers have been angered by restrictions imposed on them by the israeli police. other bill humming has more holy. saturday is the most important day in the calendar for the orthodox and eastern churches. now they celebrate the holy fire to the mass health inside the holy simple current church. once you go
9:27 pm
down this alley here, and according to the religious tradition, while a miraculous fire ignite on this day inside the church, and that flame gets on past to the worshippers and eventually travels overseas. people here have been waiting since the early. busy morning many won't be able to reach the church at the moment, it only allowing christian palestinians from jerusalem to enter. and the rest of the people are not happy. all this because of access restrictions imposed by disraeli police about the right to worship should be guaranteed to every wall they impose restrictions to erase our existence the lead up did as they has been murdered with tension. the church leadership accusing israeli police of infringing on the basic rights of worshippers. that's because the police, as actually for the 2nd year in a row,
9:28 pm
kept the number of worshipers allowed inside the holy separate church to 1800. now, palestinians were allowed to get it from another gate, the new gate, and the foreigners, the pilgrims who have made their way to jerusalem on this day. specifically to attend the mass where they were told to come here near the jaffa gate. and we spoke to some of them, and so far, just that trickle was allowed in, we traveled, we had limited time and we came specifically for this. we wanted to see the beauty of the charge and the far just $1700.00 question, palestinians from god. there were also not given permission to attend to holy fire and celebrate. now this all comes at the back of heightened tensions, and another part of the old city in the l. axa must compound. well, the church leadership says that the pressure christians are coming on there are
9:29 pm
very similar to the pressure muslim worshippers are coming under. and they say that the aim of this really is to alienate palestinians from the old city. those who are not allowed in. so the majority of the people waited patiently for the fire to come to them outside the gates of the old city. but i did meet al jazeera in occupied east jerusalem. still ahead on al jazeera. ah, your parents prime minister escapes unharmed after an explosion at a campaign event. a german campaigners celebrates is the country's last nuclear power stations are being shut down and in sport, the n b a playoff line of just got a little bit harder. possible actually, coming up later on in the show, you do not want to miss. ah,
9:30 pm
ah. hello, the weather remains a little unsettled across the middle east. a fair amounts of cloud around exceed his arc of class spinning outs of the raven peninsula, pushing up into iran and curling all the way back towards the caspian sea, the black sea, as, while scattering a shower. is there some lively ones causing some disruption across parts of central saudi arabia? we have had some damaging hail down towards the southwest recently. hopefully the showers fewer and farther between as we go through monday, temperatures here in dough hard around 30 celsius, similar temperatures into kuwait, and also into were iraq by that at 30 degrees. warm sunshine across that eastern side of the mediterranean, in warm sunshine to across northern parts of africa. and it will see more showers now coming in to we're west africa over the next day or so. been in togo garner, high re coastal seeing some of those showers. my beer is here really own. also
9:31 pm
joining the party, there's showers, the seasonal range, of course, continues to just natur way further northward stretching anywhere from around angola into northern parts of mozambique as we go through the next day or so. to the south of that, it does generally stay dry with plenty of sunshine. maybe one or 2 showers just creeping into were central parts of mozambique and nothing further north was for monday. ah, the plastic, it's no secret that it talks it for the environment. but do you really know just how toxic it is every point and it lives? i don't problem for manufacture to the rubbish. he are plastic problems are bigger than we're told they are. the proof is in the pudding. the chemical poisoning of millions of these little tiny nano particles of plastic and recently they've just found it in human blood. all hail the planet episode fall on al jazeera.
9:32 pm
ah, with lou ah, watching al jazeera reminder of our headlines, there's been heavy fighting across sudan is the army battle of the nation's largest
9:33 pm
paramilitary group. each side accuses the other of starting the violence. at least 3 civilians have been killed. fighting has flared in a number of locations, but most intensely in cartoon. both sides are claiming to control the presidential palace and the international airport. julian lusk is a sudan specialist and the former deputy editor of africa confidential. she joins us from london. first of all, jillian, do you have any intelligence up to the minute intelligence on who controls what? in cartoon not really. no, because every time i get a contradictory, one follows that. people are saying very different things such as your correspondence at earlier. ok. it's hard to believe that the artists have could completely overpower the army. so what do you think the end game is? that's right. yeah. but i mean, it's been my to believe for a long time that they are assess more powerful than they are,
9:34 pm
whatever that might mean up to stage. that doesn't seem very realistic because it has a very long established and it has a very strong regular i'm and, and has always had. so it's not at all clear. i mean, as mom adela means that earlier in a situation so difficult for wrecking around to fight. so it's quite possible that the r s f would do better that but you know, they don't have to planes now they, they claim that they've tightened planes. the question would be, have, you know, who's going to fly and look, if we look at the list of targets, right? the list of sites that have been targeted today, it's airports, it's the t v station. it's the presidential palace, it's bridges. all these are the locations that typically get attacked when a, an armed group is planning a coo. how does that resonate with? yeah, well, yes, i mean, it, it does seem very typical. and it, i mean,
9:35 pm
one question has to be is, so is the russian military, private military, supposedly private, private military organization partner involved in this? because i have been very close the working with, they are assess and, and may take the lead or if they are a sap has very strong relationships with russia. he went to russia in as a day, almost the day it invaded ukraine, which of course seemed to say no break close. and it does raise that question. people are asking that, but i haven't got an answer for that. that somebody must have a reporter or correspond mama val was telling me earlier that there are suspicions an incident that him etc. the head of the arse if sees himself as potentially the next head of the country. is that also how you see it?
9:36 pm
yeah, i think that's true, but it's also true, the man who has a head of the ruling can and so it's, it's also true that he wants to be the head of the country. and i think the one question we have to ask is, who, who benefits from all this? actually, a lot of sudanese of thinking that said assignments to organizations behind this because of the people that were overthrown by the revolution. 129 came so and, and in fact several as long as leaders mohammed ali, just a permanent preacher. and a couple of others come at him 80 himself has blamed ali kirk k, who is a major leader who founded the papers to pencil. since the rich and that that that doesn't mean it's true, but it, it means that this is in the air and people are talking about this and it, you know, that the have to be some kind of islamist involvement, but it's not k. yeah. what that would be, jillian lusk. sedan specialist,
9:37 pm
former deputy editor of africa, confidential. thank you for joining us. i'm here and the warring sides and the conflict in yemen have released more detainees on the 2nd day of a major prisoner exchange. this is the latest group of hoofing prisoners to arrive in santa the red cross says more than 800 detainees from both sides of the conflict is due to be released by monday. is exchange is part of abroad a diplomatic effort. the end of the 9 year conflict. it's a special moment, and i think that to have all the actors willing to have these really doing the ramadan, having, you know, the detainees who have been separated from this have any for us to, to join again. it's more than just a release. it's a release during ramadan and we did it inside so it's, it's a powerful side. it does very well. i. yeah, i never got the most beautiful day of our lives because we got out of captivity. and now we are safely heading to our country and under the protection of the red
9:38 pm
cross. i now feel proud and honored as i am returning to the any land i will kiss its soil greetings to all the many people. why did that? 24 year old man has been arrested after an apparent attack on japan's prime minister for me. okay. shita and a political rally incident and shocked. japan coming just 9 months after the killing a former prime minister she abi roma. bride reports from car with our in japan. the, the attack happened as prime minister who me ok shita was about to speak in support of a candidate in an upcoming bi election. the there was commotion when someone through what appeared to be a smoke bomb from the crowd. a suspect was quickly wrestled to the ground. the casita was hurried away by his security. for every one in japan, this attack recalled last july, its assassination. a former prime minister though, ave, again, not
9:39 pm
a public event as he was campaigning. i know it was the same when it happened with former prime minister, ebay. i was shot something like this happened again soon as you came out and was seeing similar incidents and given that this case with the sheet follows on from what happened to abbe i think people are reassessing the idea of campaign speeches . but anyway, i'm glad that she days fine. because shita has continued his campaigning, saying the democratic process must go on. think of michigan can go in the election to the foundation of democracy and violence like this cannot be tolerated during elections. i also instructed the national police agency to ensure a thorough protection of dignitaries losing. this attack comes as japan prepared to host foreign ministers of the g 7 countries in the mountain resort. town of kara was our, which is now under tight security. in recent times,
9:40 pm
acts of violence have become extremely rare in japanese politics adopted. ave assassination and investigation found that being serious flaws in the security provided for him. it's led to much greater protection for prime minister casita. it's type on security that's much more in evidence as he continues to campaigns. robert bride al jazeera kara was our japan. i was a member of the u. s. air force national guard accused of leaking top secret military intelligence records has appeared in court. 21 year old jack to share a is accused of unlawfully copying and transmitting classified material. the documents revealed the depth of us spying on his adversaries and allies. it is one of the largest leaks of classified information since edward snowden. the leaked us intelligence documents appear to confirm the presence of the russian wagner mercenary group in booking of faso. it comes at a time when the military hunter is calling for a national mobilization and the face of attacks from arm groups linked to al qaeda
