5:02 am
tell us about these georgia indictments of what we know that the indictments handed from the grand jury to the judge in this case include 10 separate indictments. what we don't know is who therefore, as you mentioned, it is expected that donald trump's name will be on that list. and there were as many as 20 other people who had been told that they were targets of this investigation to a lot of people who could be charged. and it was believed that the district attorney, in this case finding willis was looking at using racketeering. that is usually something use only for organized crime cases, but in this case, she is arguing that there is a conspiracy to steal with georgia election. the presidential election in which joe biden won and overturn it. for donald trump. there could be
5:03 am
a number of other charges there. there were some leech earlier in the day and that included racketeering. but we don't know that that's true. so we're still a waiting, whether the former president does indeed face a 4th indictment or whether other people are on those charges as well. but if racket tearing is among them, that is a charge that holds a penalty of up to 20 years in prison. there is a minimum san vince of 5 years in prison so that really subjects at the former president. and then of course the republican leading candidate for. ready the presidency to the potential of facing a prison term if he were to be convicted on these charges either before or after the next election. and it could get tricky because if he won, you can pardon name self from the federal and diamonds any faces, but not state charges like this one. so there's a lot that remains to be seen. we should know in the coming hours were told by the
5:04 am
clerk of this for the could be a couple of hours before they get that paperwork out, but we'll be here to pick you up to speed on that. okay, and, and john is very briefly if the former president is named in these indictments, this would be his 4th set of charges. is that correct? i very briefly kind of bring us up to speed on this and quickly let us know how this could affect his potential run. if he gets the republican nomination for a 2nd term in the white house. that's right, kimberly he faces 3 indictments before this comes out. there's a hush money scheme to pay off. former porn star stormy daniels to silence are ahead of a 2016 presidential election. that's in new york state. those are state charges. there are 2 federal indictments. one of them is for ms handling classified information that's in florida. and one of them is for the president's activities around the january 6 insurrection and his efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential
5:05 am
election. this would be the 4th and he'd be battling at all at the same time that he's running for president and the president has been urge not to speak out on these days, is not to intimidate witnesses. and he has been speaking out just today, telling one of the witnesses that he should not appear. nevertheless, 10 witnesses appeared before this grand jury and the president, if he were to be convicted, believe it or not, who would still run for a 2nd for the presidency one more time. and that is because there's nothing in the us constitution that prevents that. there is an exception to that. anybody convicted of crimes that are treasonous. those people would not be able to run in an argument could be made that say he would be subjected to that clause. but that's something that has yet to be tested. because as you know, kimberly nothing like this is ever happened before. certainly history in the making
5:06 am
. all right, thank you so much john. 100 reporting live for us of atlanta. thank you. well, there has been fighting in and around libya's capital tripoli after the detention of a powerful commander whose forces control much of the city now arrival forest captured my food hamza at the matilda international airport. and tripoli for these are those loyal for him. all flights in and out of the airport has been suspended. warring factions have been fighting for control of libya. small market option was toppled and killed in 2011 out. malik trina reports from tripoli about the top sure of my foot hamza, of the specialty turn, force, which controls the me to get airport here in tripoli, detains in the mood homes of become manager of the 400 and 44th brigade of forces loyal to homes that then gave a deadline to the special detour and for us to release him, they didn't. and so we saw a security tensions rise,

especially in southern tripoli, where both of these groups have a, have headquarters or barracks in those areas. a clashes be a rupture between them. and the situation remains extremely tense. and we can hear a sporadic fighting. a sporadic gunshots in the distance mostly like weapons, but from time to time, we can here what we believe is a artillery or, or, or, or medium weapons being used in tripoli feet. it's a fragile piece uh when, when, when things are going well and situations like this can escalate extremely quickly . i mean, the last time that clashes erupted, you know, we had about 30 people died and over a 100 injured. so people are extremely afraid of seeing that the schools are, are now calling for, for uh, for them to be suspended for tomorrow. uh,
5:08 am
just in case. so, i mean, people, people are really afraid, and the hope is that some kind of agreement can happen and things can come down to missouri where the west african regional blog echo was, has condemned the decision of new shares, military rulers, to prosecute the post president for treason there, calling yet another provocation, haven't bassoon, was ousted and detained after the military seas power last month. now, the united nations is called the developments worrying. i did raise reports from, can see the in neighboring nigeria. the things are getting more complicated for the just the post president, one of my buses, 3 weeks up to have the cool, his former gods, one to charge him with treason after 2nd here was never mind media. i really assist you the government of needs. you have to date, gather the necessary evidence to prosecute before the competence national and
5:09 am
international authorities, the ousted president, and his local and for an accomplices, for high treason and undermining the internal and external security of nisha. following his exchanges with the nationals, a 4 and a heads of state and heads of international organizations. as long as you wanted to put them in to, to say, while the charges against best weight, they could also be a power struggle play out. they're trying to see how they can silence by you as a president, and then possibly, and this one likes, because once he's convicted, it means he's spend that is that he's going to spend that as of his life in prison . and he'll know, bedroom, that'd be the one who is getting these yet. the problem is that chances are they have for an, a civil war wrapped in the the charges come always up, trying to take on the military base and the to not be able to region. most of the kept doing. yeah. me that killed 7 soldiers. it's a fault such a tax is administered to power last month. the courtney decide the lack of security
5:10 am
is one of the main reasons they over through the democratically elected president. but with these attacks on the rise, people are beginning to question the motives and the cool. on sunday senior religious figures from nigeria, let me just cletus, who stated a willingness to negotiate with the regional book echoes. the enabling julia concerns of mounting about events in this year as refugees to begin to cross its border, shedding an escalation tension is building across the border. why many people name is you're concerned about possibly ministry intervention. meaning i did as i worried about the optimize local c. s a centers of costs, board of trade and relationships would be in jeopardy. as long as me is just military, remain defiant. we have started receiving the influx of people from the jo. but in the of pocket, some of them have start to secure for which here. and it's not only nigeria that's working with consent. politicians and i noticed on the continent, i worried about the speed at which these crews happening,
5:11 am
especially in west africa. i did research, i just need a couple not nigeria. and for more malcolm lab has this from car the west african regional economic blog. echo was just put out a statement saying that it learned with stupefaction about the challenges presented by the minute feel. so if he's in his yeah, against recently ousted president, how many was in the statement or sex and then to move instead of contradicted assigns recent signs that there was a possibility of deceiving, peaceful means. to echo, i said would be a ton to constitutional rule. united nations has also commented saying that is worrying statements and then expressed concern about the conditions of president president and his family who are detained by the military. also, it also it sees in the jazz caps. so when you, i'm a, the us government's also commented condemning the move. now this comes at
5:12 am
a time when echo us. so macro last member states that preparing a son by force for a possible ministry intervention code of law has said that it was put in a battalion of troops, 850 soldiers send a goal. and the name would also be expected to contribute troops. but to echo us members are currently suspended. molly, i'm the key and if i say both of those countries of have twos in recent years, in the military, governments that have said that they object to any military intervention, they would stand by the military or 3rd season. news yeah, in the event that it happened raising concerns of an escalating regional complex. malcolm web out a 0 call center go. meantime at least 26 nigeria soldiers have been killed in an ambush and an evacuation mission that followed. an air force helicopter crash near at village in niger delta state. it was on its way to rescue soldiers who were

5:14 am
people would come up to us and say that i'm not letting us and we have to get back in because so many people, thousands of people by the looks of it are still there. so you have the policy and the future. we have a lot of questions about the pos, meaning why didn't they know, why didn't they full see that this could be a possibility, given all the warnings they've had since 2014 widely emergency siren sounds. when it was clear, it was an incredibly windy day, and fires were already burning. but now we're also looking to the future. i think something that is often forgotten is hawaii is effective in american colony. i know it became the state in 1959, but it's still up that sort of suspicion and resentment amongst the big sections of the nature of wine population here about the motives of the federal government in any way. yes, the 21st century link made capitalism does off the capitalism. the way that the, those who run the results and who have the money have a, have a lack of making a crisis into an opportunity which might mean that many of them will end up losing
5:15 am
out. and that's what we had in that report for various people, is that real suspicion and fear. and actually one of the reasons why certainly people have remains on the western part of the island haven't left. is that real fear about what's going to, what's going to happen next? you know, when you have to remember the reason hawaii is a us state is because a bunch of white sugar plantation owners called the ministry interpreter of the queen. at the end of the 19th century, it's a very recent political history that there's rooms in the us about the relationship between hawaii and the us. yeah, that's comes out at times like with a time for a short break. still ahead on al jazeera the far right candidate and the argentine is presidential primary takes a shock lead in what's being called an electoral. so nami plus $200.00 treasury in front of the dock of city corporation hospital. offering to the latest update from the main rise, i've done a favor in bangladesh,
