the oven prison into hon to house the rest on tuesday. they should return to their families in the us in the next few weeks. this is a positive step, but i don't want to get ahead of its conclusions because there are more work to be done to actually bring them home. my belief is that this is the beginning of the end of their nightmare. and the nightmare that their families have experience the us will release several iranians it held for violating sanctions, imposed on to hans. but perhaps the most important to, to have hon officials, $6000000000.00 long, frozen and excelled korean bank will be transferred to cut ours central bank called re officials will then release those funds only to be spent on humanitarian programs inside a wrong exports. say it's significant that to hon would agree to such a financial arrangement. it suggests that iran wanted disagreement and wanted to de escalate attention somehow with the united states. and that it, it sees this as

a part of a strategy of trying to recover economic play from the reposition of sanctions from cove it from everything that iran has gone through over the last few years. but let's not get too excited. i mean, let's understand, this is still the a small make republic of the run. it is still severely repressing its own people. us officials are clear, the prisoner swap does not mean relations between the 2 countries are getting better. we are not in talks with the wrong on the return to the jcp away the nuclear deal. and that's, that's not on the agenda right now. what we are talking to a roundabout, particularly through our switch representatives and our partners in the region is getting these americans home. we are still focused, as we ought to be on all the other d, stabilizing activities that are on, is capable of and doing in the region, supporting rushes ward and ukraine, supporting terrors, networks throughout the region and a lot. uh, and then of course the uh, the threats to maritime shipping in the,

in the gulf itself. one diplomatic step forward. many more steps still to be taken between 2 long time phones, russell and jordan elders, sierra washington to at our door. so jabari is in the around a capital t, ron, she says many see this as a promising 1st step. the rating for ministry has issued a statement informing the reports that 5 americans have been released from evan present here in the waiting capital on thursday evening. now, these 5 dual nationals have not lost iran and they won't be leaving at any time soon. that that is because that the iranians are still waiting for their money, which is going to be transferred 1st to a swiss bank account. and then from there they will be transferred to the guitar, a national bank at the faith of these 5 americans is that they are going to be held in a hotel in the capital of with around the clock supervision. so they are under basically

house arrest until the time for them to the parts iran. in the meantime, we've also heard from the deputy you formed it, waiting for administer the binary connie, who were in a treat set that they've received as the assurances that they need, that this money will be released, as well as the fate of 4 radians that are being held in us prisons, they are going to be released as well. we don't have the identity of those arrangements at the moment. what is clear is the radians are now looking for a way out of this a deadlock that has been ongoing for the past 2 years, negotiations that they've been having. and of course, at this shows a willingness from both sides that they want to de escalate tensions, as well as the important role of the other countries plate is facilitating these negotiations that are still ongoing. those countries include amman, guitar and switzerland for now many hope that this will be seen as a 1st step towards the escalating,

the ongoing tension between the united states and the wrong door. such a part, ultra 0 to her on to a west african block known as, as was, has activated a stand by military force after holding an emergency meeting to discuss the crew in his chair. but leaders emphasized diplomacy is the preferred way to restore the civilian government if condemned. the detention of president mohammed resume who was asked to 2 weeks ago. but i had address has more now from boucher for our original blog fighting for relevance. it's a moment of decision for a cause and good by any just quality doesn't exist as the group is now beating the drums of war, it is activated. it's done by force, the committee of the chief of defense stuff, to activate the equity done by force with all its elements immediately order the deployment of the equity stand by force to restore constitutional order.

in the republic of news, you know, i did as president, which is the organization is urging a united front. and we don't know why as we do it for us. echo stand by force made up of the military, police and civilians. number between 30026000, depending on the crisis, it was deployed to the gun being 2017. when former president j a jeremy lost the election and refused to hand over its loss, deployment was to stabilize, going to be solves political crisis. eckowitz is back where he started 2 weeks ago . the threat of force and diplomacy, menissi resolving is just part of crisis that's important to the survival of the regional block. and it's running deployment, se failure to resolve the situation. misspelled danger, not only to west africa, but the entire continent. the announcement of

a thing to one member cabinet by new just doing to maybe the final blow to resolving the process peacefully. the coordinators have turned away all mission send by echoes to negotiate and to the crisis ivery cost less than what to is a bulk of critic on the cool that a good at keeping president as long as that hostage best. and then you can see that this is a total of this and we cannot let this continue. we have to act echo says it's committed to diplomacy to resolve the crisis. but if he should say time is running out, a sole involved in mediation efforts to in the crisis says it's just cool need is one concessions to begin. cox diploma. seating grounds to the june to go farther. we can do organization. i mean cottage partition, the cool part is in the region. how many degrees i would use either a good job. well, the death toll from wild fires on the hawaiian island of maui has now risen to at

least 53 people. thousands has been displaced from their homes. hotels, as well as vacation resorts, rescue operations continue as firefighters. battle the wild fires. why is governor and now is mer? say there has been so much. destruction is going to take a long time to rebuild. and i know the question on your mind is, when can i get back to my home? just as soon as we can try to provide a certainty that we have recovered those that have perished. and that's really our, our goal right now. we're hoping to find people that might just be injured a lot of time as fast as the incident. so we're still in that phase, but please allow us to complete this process before we allow people back into the hands, there's no power. there's no water back on, on the west side either. so those are both things we're trying to restore as well.

we also want to make sure we can provide enough shelter space, a space that are shelters for folks where we're kind of at the limits and some of the central maui wines. and it will have to be created with our team after this to try to get more for folks out on the west side. well, erica of boardman joins us now. she is a senior resilience advisor at ac disaster consulting. she's joining us for morrisville, vermont for more on the challenges that many of the 1st responders are facing in fighting all of these wildfire in malli. thank you for joining us. talk us a little bit about some of the priorities that these 1st responders are facing. right. now what they're doing and some of those unique challenges as well. thank you for having me. no time or we can expect that the vote in around the. busy the west side of now we are,

but he also probably seen today and by the has class support and ensuring that some sort impacted by the fire will receive assistance as soon as possible. so i would expect my state emergency managers and the former jarrett isn't working together just quickly and track all of those down. and how is the sort of the damage surveyed in terms of the extent of the damage? will we know really what the full extent is or how long will it take until we know, you know, often recording, you know, several weeks a month to really know the extent of the impact and the long lasting economic impact of a disaster. like the certainly, as i mentioned before, why does have a housing prices and having forwarded the really need to work through the challenges to ensure that the folks have a place to live in blind or is it there?

i'm thinking i'm from day you from those who do from quote in going to stop. you didn't even us about implementing inventory. so you become very successful. the united nations is honestly official intelligence is fundamental to achieving and sustainable development goals. in africa. there are huge challenges including a lack of relevant technical skills, inadequate infrastructure, insufficient investments, want africa to be part of the uh, overall innovation uh, map of the ward. and we want also to be part of the people that are building the future. the tech starts up some concrete. he sits on the dusty bank street in the senegalese capital to call like bills and ultimately some intelligence that has the potential to change millions of lives across the continent. so for the purpose of showing you how this works, public, how he is pretending to be a potential entrepreneur anywhere in africa. and the ally that the company is developed is asking about because

this is to do with this on the good news. the. 5 reason he passed they criminalize homosexuality and this has been very, very controversial. the president has been talking about it and the president said that the laws do not target specific needs a rather the low protect you, brandon's from being a reputed or cost into homosexuality. so this is something that has gained a lot of talk, so not just in uganda, but across the world as well. and the impact of the so was done to move is immense because the was gone, a gave this loan and millions of dollars to you've gone down for different projects when it comes to education and health of infrastructure and so on. and it's not just the was bank, you know,

the uganda itself is, you know, is dependent on aids. uh so a lot of donors and other partners are very uncomfortable, particularly about the snows and the sections of the slows. catherine. so this is sarah nairobi. the government of india and prime minister and the rental modi has survived a new confidence vote in parliament. his party and its allies hold the majority of seats. the opposition brought the motion, accusing body of failing to end months of estimate violence in the northeastern state of money for dozens of opposition. politicians walked out during the prime minister. speech modi has promised to restore peace in money for it says the entire country stands behind the state. he didn't, the people of the country have to an immense distrust in our government again and

again. i am here to thank every citizen and so my direct to, to, to the people of the country or friday is the start of what many are calling a new era and football. the savvy pro li kicks off with clubs in the gulf kingdom having spent hundreds of millions of dollars attracting players from some of europe top teams. joanna guys are oscar reports to to form a little pool. teammates reunited on new grounds. jordan henderson and study of money are among the top players to have swept your top legs for the saudi pro league with henderson now at out to fuck and man, a signing for christy on rinaldo is elm. esa, this week they'll get the 1st taste of saudi football. as the new season begins, excitement is definitely valuable. the end is football mad country right, where football is in the dna for us really. this is

a moment when the strategy actually comes together and comes to life. that strategy started with the rinaldo is rival at elma. so late last year. since then, the government has back to the saudi pro league investing billions to make comes more professional aimed at making the league one of the best and wealth of the source of the transfer window bottom. do when occurring benjamin assigned for out it to had from rail madrid. and since then there's been an influx of foreign players. the clubs have shelled out close to half a $1000000000.00 and football website trumps amongst ranks the saudi league. as the 5th biggest spend in the window behind leagues in italy, from germany and england. this is definitely a journey. this is not just the one weekend we've set off to, to achieve this objective, to, to be one of the top endings in the world. saudi arabia has made big investments across sports, including gulf boxing, and for we the one, well, the critique such as i'm the scenes national,

are choosing the kingdom of sport flushing the human rights records. but that hasn't put a full cost of buying up the rights to show sound. the football in more than a 170 countries. well, funds in the capital re at also preparing for bigger and better season a heads me. i wasn't in the pulse, we got used to the competition big machine out who our less. oh wow. hill, allen? oh, if you had but say of the presence of international players like benjamin christiano and f, as in the saudi league, will get more excitement in competition between clubs. that'd be anatomy. and that'd be in the international players one or 2 years back. we're in the biggest clubs and were considered among the greatest players in the world. so i'm extremely happy to see our national league and an arabic leap with these names. this is a beautiful thing out of the season kicks off on friday, but the transfer window is open until the 1st week of september. and the feeling is that the saudi pro league may still attract another big name before it closes. joanna guys,

real sca ouch is 0. the you're watching out the 0 here. the top stories 5 us citizens have been moved from that are ronnie and present house arrest as part of the deal between the united states and iran. the initial agreement involves the release of billions of dollars of ronnie and funds frozen in south korea. we will continue to enforce all of our sanctions. we will continue to push back resolutely against iran, stabilizing activities in the region and beyond, including now supplying russian with drones for as we're progressing against ukraine. and none of these efforts take away from, from that these are entirely separate tracks. we focused on getting, getting our people home,

but we continue to take strong action against ron's other activities that we in so
