shooting and traumatic story, the children throw stones at me erects last generation on l. just the heading. hey, in 5 americans and prisons in iran for several years are released in a deal negotiated by capital. the other than or kyle, this is out. is there a life from doha also coming up and got into a protest as gathering the libyan city, devastated by floods off to, to dance collapse. last week, 6 people are killed in a drug and attack, talking an arrow pointing to the rocky city of ceremonial and to face off in the

hague. rush are objects to view and course jurisdiction and a genocide case, bored by ukraine. the iran and the us have carried out a prison. this wolf is part of the castle and media to deal 5 american systems held entire on for several years on. now, on the way back to the us was 5 iranians are also free offer the us to great to drop federal charges against them. but it was also see in the us on free $6000000000.00 in iranian oil revenue. and one con hospital from dough ha. up to 2 years of intense negotiations, a 2 hour flight from toronto has brought an end to an old deal for 5 imprisoned americans. the 2nd year, those negotiations will catch read mediators shuffling between hotels though. at no point, the american iranian parties meet face to face. the free to prisoners include us

around and you'll actually see about give us an image chucky as well as environment list. we're at the above. they've been accused of spying and held for several years and turnaround they were released as part of the prison. this won't deal that included 5 iranians also released from the us custody. the deal with carefully orchestrated and began with $6000000000.00 of funds of frozen iranian oil money initially seized in south korea, being sent to switzerland and then to go. the rony and farm industry confirm that transaction would be the charge to the have on see in the framework of our active foreign policy. we have unlocked our frozen assets in south korea today. god willing, these funds will be in the hands of our government. and people, and this government will spend it accordingly to the needs of the people whose so it was a short walk from that plane to the terminal building. but it's not quite over for them yet. they've been met by a sorry delegation. the business have been met to now by the us embassy and members

of the state department. they'll want to get them to the united states as quickly as possible, where they'll be given a medical evaluation and a security. the very thing, the full, the cast reimbursed to the, to the you and said that this was a good deal for a whole. it was the cost to the $2.00 parties of the go to places are cuts out of that live just as the ending uh, as the fox uh uniforms up up to 2 years wouldn't be the different cut the offer shows, movies back and forth between the washington dc and the site out. com is good for both kansas especially the people who are you know, having to, we envision of and they have time to this and is also good for our, the don't. because the more we saw it for problem or problem solve the problem and

as the more our visual become more stable, there was a visible sense of relief is afraid. prisoners bowed at the flight out of terror on a monday. for cattle, this has been a successful outcome to a very difficult negotiation process. but this is far from over for the iranians and americans who remain at all over several issues, including iran speak to the energy program and issues such as that will require both sides to sit down and talk face to face iran, which is 0. the spring in our white house correspondent now kimberly how kits and kimberly we have this extra estate on see if they can praising this deal, but not everybody that was happy with us. there are certainly critics in the united states. the believe that as a side holding ron, that this will in many ways allow for the further detention or in the future of other americans. because what this does is shows that the united states is willing to pay

a high price for americans to be returned back to the united states. but the warehouse is defending this deal saying, but what this is, is essentially making sure that those americans that had been detained, were able to come home, that the alternative could have been then spending the rest of their lives in prison. and so as a result, you as president a, is making no apology for this. they say that when it comes to this deal, not only are americans quite whole, but a ronnie is r as well. and also that the rod is going to be getting $6000000000.00 in unfrozen funds, but this is money that already belong to the iranians. and that is in going to be having strict oversight. this is going to go to humanitarian purposes, is healthy iranian people with food, with medicine, medical devices, and even ask for cultural needs. and so there is no apology or the part of the white house. they say that they saw an opportunity for deal to bring americans home,

and they seized it on concurrent to this. kimberly, we've got the us announcing new sanctions tell us about those. and the message states that they bring yeah, as the message is, is very much a loud and clear why the matters is that this is, should be not mistaken for any change in relations between the united states. as a ron, this is still very much an adversarial relationship and just because there has been this exchange of prisoners, the united states does not see this has any sort of warming of relations in quite the contrary, the united states still sees iran is very much being a concern in terms of its nuclear program, this is not a jumpstart of the talks to reignite the j c p o way and bring the the 2 sides back together to try and get the deal re ignited if you will. i as there is

certainly no uh yeah on the part. 8 of the 2 sides there certainly is no refreshing if you will in terms of feeling any better about its human rights record . in fact, just the opposite to ad friday. there were new sanctions and now so on the anniversary of the death of my meeting, the woman who was killed at the hands of arise morality, police that was on the part of the united states. britain, australia in canada. and just today we've had 1st sanctions announced of for the one americans that did not come home along with these 5 americans. that is robert or bob levinson, who went missing in 2007. it's resume dead as of 2020 and the payments in iran. there is there sanctions against the former president. ronnie, president must have now to do their job as well as intelligence officials because they simply the united states says do not know his whereabouts and say that his family deserves answers. so in terms of the relationship new sections being leveled

because they say that a ron needs to be held accountable for that absence, that has still not been accounted for. company. ok, it's very nice that from the white house, thanks very much. can be my just allen, sorry, as spokesman for castles foreign ministry and advise it to the prime minister. speaking to us from new york, he said it's been a long time to bring the dale to fruition to you in the meetings in the visit to both the house and the b. c took place on behalf of the company officials. nothing with that would be the 5 minutes the engine with at least the minister of the state, the number to facilitate this deal. i think there was a genuine need from all a genuine need from all parties to each this the disagreements. and that was a lot of effort on all the positives to each the agreement that had taken place, states and the army. and then to also have that i in the into, has to be headed over to the i mean side and to return to their home countries as

the as possible. so they disagree with the code will start with the equivalent of change. but had the also included in it the uh, the human humanitarian, financial channel, and then into a how that was affinity. who might take and needs to be. i mean, people, i thought has had a lot of success when it comes to mediation in the counseling. the case that the part of it is not the prototype i'd like to mediate between the 2nd party, but especially between 18 and on. and the not to say there's been a lot to pop up. i forgot that in the many stages of the talks between the 2 sides because i had facilitated in director and to have that before then has the sort of a bid exchange of the ideas on that that is still fixed on this topic. especially i think the truck that has been built to look up out of the relationship. do you think you're going to ship with the united states as it was it?

the united imaging, non nature allied by the united states fairly simply and look into that and ship with add the public of that young on back at the topics has made come back to be a very suitable mediation on the on this. and you have hopefully back to it with she'll be all. ready upset our. busy in the media, things with the suicide got hopeful that the agreement will have a uh, you know, a pushing checked in for editing a lot of the comprehensive. again, it's on the about 2 issues between the 2 types. as a demonstration has been held in libya as eastern said he of done a one week off to devastating floods, killed thousands of people protest as, according on the public prosecutor to speed up the investigation into how 2 times above the city collapsed and heavy rains. officials are blamed for not maintaining them properly,

many in the crowd called for national unity of the use of division. as the 1st of all, and we pray that all the monitors will rest in peace. and i hope this is the end of all catastrophes. we just ask that if there will be any rebuilding efforts that no libyan company be ever involved. this is because everyone in, during the, from the head of the municipality to all the officials are corrupt during rush. either be left as it is or a food company should be involved. rescue work is in done a struggling to identify decomposing bodies. at least 10000 people are still missing in the city that will grow and concerns about the spread of disease of monic train of reports from aaa. it's been over a week since thousands of people were killed when to dams burst and sent a wall of water in mud crashing through the eastern city of deadman. the

search for bodies goes on, thousands of people are missing and feared that many bodies are so decomposed that identifying them is proving difficult. a disturbing for search and rescue teams. the tea then so leaving much some of the libyan when i put on the bodies, i swear i cried. i can handle it, but it is called swell. so you have to hold up and put out the body. there was a body that was cut into 2 parts stride before us. there was nothing to do but to point out the bodies. what can you do with so many people on accounted for, and so many presumed dead. the threat of disease increases by the day some survivors have returned to what remains of their homes and are overcome with grief

. is if we found dead bodies of neighbors, friends, and loved ones, i cannot explain of this. libya has been a deeply divided country for years. so nations centers like this one in trip we have been set up across the country. volunteers are crossing front lines, ignoring byways, and political unrest that have existed for years in order to help those in need in the east. many survivors want to know how this disaster happened and who might be responsible for the system. and i have a small family of 6 from my extended family that i'm more than 48 people missed. god will punish the people who were supposed to take care of down. the un says that more than 40000 people have been forced to flee their homes. unless i promote or

site or carefully i can pay, it was like a dream and that we can't comprehend. we just kind of comprehend it to get help from abroad, continues to arrive. what so far? international and living official say is just not enough. latrina oh, to 0 tripoli. so the head hair on out to sara, was on the moroccan government setting up makes up close friends in some areas west affected by the off quake. and well leaders gather for the un general assembly with climate crisis on the wall in ukraine topping agenda. the had a lot of this very stormy weather has swept into your knocking down temperatures. i'm bringing some funding down, pulls and very wet weather to the likes of spain fronds and the u. k. we've seen

some flooding from that heavy rain and as you can see on tuesday, there's more to come. but we've also got some wind warnings out for the island of island, particularly coastal areas, seeing those very gusty conditions and some of those sweeping across into central parts. germany have got some red warnings out for wind as well on choose day the west. so whether i'm on several conditions plaguing more northern areas, we'll see that heavy rain roll across scandinavia and also a line of heavy showers across the bolts estate. stretching down into the balkans, we are expecting some sundry conditions in places here. and it is a set to gets cooler, the west of the rain on wednesday, affecting eastern areas of spain. we could see some flooding from that and the unsettled conditions continue around the belly, eric islands, but still a story of hits in the very south. we'll see things cool down in places, certainly across the spain as we go into wedding stay, but the southern pots of it to be what was still clinging onto the heat here,

below most seeing the temperature well above the average through to thursday, the, the, the, [000:00:00;00] the

the again, you are watching out, is there a heads reminder about top stories? this our a demonstration is being held in libya's eastern city of done one week of the devastating floods killed thousands of people. protest as, according on the public, prosecute as speed up the investigation into how 2 times above the city collapsed and the heavy rains. officials are blamed for not properly maintaining them around on the us of terry down to christmas 12th, as part of the castle mediation deal. 5 american citizens held in town for several years. and now on the way back to the us was find a ronnie ins are also free on us a great to drop federal charges against them which are against is i'm a lawyer representing the family of smack them as a one of the iranian american prisons. now on his way back to the united states and

he joins us via skype from geneva jar, this is a good day for you for us to ask for the monte. finally, did you ever expect to see him walk free as well? you don't get involved in this work is human rights lawyer if you think the answer to that question is no, we have to make the impossible possible. and so i know it would come to the question was, you know, when, whether it would be soon enough for the family to actually be reunited. it's worth remembering that you'll see maximizing himself as a hostage now for almost 8 years until literally today. but his father was a hostage for about 5 years at that same period of time as well. and so what the family has been through is just absolutely horrific. and now, the mom, a wife having a mazda, and see like the mazda you're on a plane to the united states, where they will meet the brothers, the mac, the mazda, and the, and the father of all her demising. and his family will finally be together for the 1st time and more than 9 years. and they just so using the word hostage rather than the word prism which of course,

the iranians use. tell us why that as well. there's an interesting commentary on hostage taking the defined to hostage as a person who's being detained for something of value, whether it be money or a policy concession. and a ron just today was given $6000000000.00 of its own money back in order to secure the release. so this is a textbook definition of a hostage. how difficult has it been to represent somebody who has been held prisoner has been held hostage in a country like a wrong? it was interesting. i mean it's, you know, obviously it's very, very hard to go up against. ron around doesn't exactly have a fabulous human rights. right. or not just the gosh to obviously uh, you know, foreign nationals detained in the country. but obviously in terms of its own people, it has a long history of gross human rights abuses committed against uh, against women, against religious minorities, against political activists and so forth. so it's a very,

very tough road. but frankly, you know, when it comes with us around a relationship with going back to 1979 has been an exceptionally difficult one. it's often very hard to get the united states to be able to come to the table. so across especially across different um presidential ministrations that have very, very different policies. and so, you know, any family in this circumstance has to fight actually both sides in order to get them to come to the table the same time. and that's that they're the most difficult part of the job. and did you have any access to sound like when he was in the prison? the 1st 2 years he was detained, mostly incommunicado, held by the iran, ryan revolution and guard corps, and subjected to daily derogation and torture. after he and his father both convicted and given tenure sentences for so called collaborating with a hospital state with a reference to the united states of america. um, you know, see a mac was, was sent to the general board of in prison where he mixed with other 4 nationals who have been convicted as well as a, ronnie,

unplug the prisoners. and so over the last, about 6 years, we have had regular access to him. he's been able to make phone calls from the prison funds and, and i've spent many years getting to know him and, and obviously working in test it with a family on the outside for a friend, get his father out before he died and ultimate, the, to get him out as well. and how would you describe him as a pass and having been through this whole deal as well. i mean he's a, as a man of extraordinary strength and endurance. he never lost hope. obviously not every day was that way. but i think one of the things that really, really inspired him and one of the things that he will look forward to speaking out about now, what she could never before is how much um, how much she has learned a been inspired by the level preference of iran with whom he was imprisoned for some 6 years. you know, he also was devastated by the death of boss on meeting her murder by the running regime. and of course would have loved to have spoken out about it. but that's not

something that's when you get away with an open prism. so um, you know, i expect he'll speak his mind about these issues in the, in the near future. and you know, i think ultimately he's, you know, he has family are gonna need some time to be with each other. he's going to be in the hospital at least for several days to get evaluated and see what other kind of health issues he might have. and you know, today hostage and tomorrow, you know, is the 1st day of the rest of his life. and so i just wish you all the best for the family. and i'm just so glad that this has finally come to an end. but what you're also really says to me is that in our for community needs to take a dramatically different approach to state sponsor hosses kicking. because the reality is that there are no just incentives to take hostages. in fact, there are lots of incentives to take them because nothing negative has done um to governments to take hostages and ultimately united states. and so many other countries around the world. although, you know, they kick and scream and say they're not going to do it. although like cut deals to uh, you know, to pay a wrong, another kind of around the role. but in gauging this practice. and the only way

that we're going to end this practice is by gained the rest the community to come together and to work multilaterally. so that the, you know, so we can disrupt the entire value proposition for the taking of hostages and dramatically and increase the cost. it's only then that iran and other countries will have to reconsider engaging in this as a state pattern and brought us very good indeed to speak to jared guns. thank you very much. taking the time to join us here on the out of their a. thank you so much. well the us military is asking it now for the public's help in finding f 35 like to jet. that's missing in the state of south carolina. the pilot was forced to object over the city of north charleston of to what the motor you said was a mishap. a jack was on also pilots and well thought to be and self made on the part of some bullshit, based on jets location. i'm trajectory the us military believe the $100000000.00 plane is net to lakes.

the united nations to continue good terrace has demanded a global rescue plan to revive stalled targets to tackle issues such as hung up poverty and climate change. it was speaking ahead of the un general assembly in new york. the terrace called for additional funding from wealthy countries to help meet the 2013 deadline. so the, the cheese out of just a list of goals. they carry the hopes, dreams, the rights and the expectations of people everywhere. and they provide the shortest best living up to our organizations and the universal declaration of human rights. now we need 70 seats. yes. yes. today, only 15 percent of the targets are on track and many out of going in

reverse. instead of leaving no one behind, we risk leaving the speeches behind. so excellence sees the s, the jews needs a global rescue plan to iraq. now we're at least 6 people have been killed in a drone attack on all by apple. and so the money a northern city is home to several civilian military organizations, fighting against ikea under run. my hood, i'm doing well, hate has moved from baghdad. your rocks, it knows that in the city of sleigh many in the semi attend them is could this region which it's an attack on it's out of but able to at to 4 p. m. local time. on monday, the attack, according to the security of sources, insulin, many of us cut it out by a drawing targeting get the airport a number of people were killed. why? the airport has been used by the n t at tourism paradis that belongs to the city

over at lee many and now the area in and around the city. obviously many a, a has been home to civil military and civilian organizations, operating there against both to the an airline took. yeah. has been established and committed 3 bases in the area to conduct, drawing a tax to target locations of the p p. k. the cost on a workers policy, which is a band and labeled by t as a terrorist organization, judge as the instructional court of justice. so having arguments from russia and ukraine about claims by most go that's it launched, it's invasion to prevent genocide. ukraine brought the case to the united nations highest quote, days off to russia, invaded last year. keep accused as moscow of abusing international law by fulfill alleging genocide in eastern ukraine. also wants the case to be for towels and objects. so the court jurisdiction schools are we are putting in

central more. okay. 10 days off to the quick and the hardest hit areas of the atlas mountain students are being educated, intense you and says they have quite just faithful of 300000 people. 70 deca has visited mix of classrooms and as they this is an effort to return the lives of so many children affected by this earthquake to some form of normal c, u, the government to set up. these make shift classrooms if you will, in these tense today, should be the official 1st day of school. some students arrived this morning, but causes couldn't get under way, particularly because of a lack of transportation for some of the children around 50 arrived here. they want around $3000.00 to come and that's what we understand pretty much of work in progress because challenges still remain with transportation. it was, as we've been reporting over the last week,

the roads are so incredibly difficult and the villages are still hard to get to. but this is really for the villages surrounding this era. we met one young boy outside 9 years old, all asking him if he wanted to return to school. he said yes, very much. his house was destroyed, his village was destroyed, and his school also. so this very much an effort to try and get things back to normal, but certainly of this country still very much reading from that are great. stephanie decker, all g 0 as me. and a $200.00 mull migrants have arrived on the italian island of lum, produced the italian prime minister in georgia. maloney has pushed through new measures designed to help to turn like winds and speed up the repatriation. the building of more detention centers has been approved. high false, it has more from them, produce a around 200 people arriving in this latest round of different locations, bringing the total for the day to around 500. then i'm just starting to take back up again, online producer to around $1500.00 still of course much lower than what we saw

a several 1000 just a few days ago. meanwhile, 700 kilometers away in rome, you tell him prime minister has to be leading a cabinet ministers meeting and what she said that she had successfully brought on board. essentially, the european commission president to us we have on the line with whom she came here to allow me to do that on sunday, in terms of viewing this as a european problem requiring a european solution. although some analysis really questioning just how specific that solution that they talked about on sunday really was the main purpose of his cabinet meeting though is to push through tough in measures, especially when it comes to people who arrived in italy and don't qualify for asylum seekers. status, they are currently held in circle repatriation centers. she is given the defense ministry, the task of building more of those centers. and she wants to extend the maximum amount of time that people are allowed to stay and then to 18 months. so that is being seen as something of the tyrants potentially by judge maloney and allies. it

also potentially by the time government some time to try to enact more bilateral agreements with various countries for repass creating people because one of the main problems is an insufficient member of those or non working such agreements. so that when people do reach the end of that attention, that's simply given the instruction to leave and become undocumented people within easily i spoke to a representative for the international organization of migration. he said that this kind of measure had been used before and it fails. he cooled, it useless and cruel. he also pointed to the fact that the last time the numbers across italy, with this high in 20152016, only 8 percent were coming through long produce. and now it's 70 percent. so lump it is, it does remain the real acute centre of this current situation. the
