a crucial world cup clash. side needs a victory to make sure qualify for the knockout rounds. until gal welcome to the program. syrian troops are wiping a major offensive against rebels in the south west of the country the regime is trying to retake the city of daraa where i'm ticked up and protest laid down seven years ago the united nations says more than forty five thousand people are from the fighting however neighboring jordan is refusing to allow displaced people to cross into its territory as you're about to see civilians and children of bearing the brunt of the violence. let's get to more on this now from a correspondent shelf or who is monitoring the situation from neighboring to welcome and shall so fifty thousand syrians displaced by fighting in neighboring jordan says you can't come here why. well jordan already has seven hundred

thousand syrian refugees and if you go to jordan every third person you meet would be a palestinian so there are there is an internal politics that's playing out in jordan the want to get on the economic pressure as well beirut is very expensive eleven months very expensive but if you go to jordan and you find out i mean just the prices are escalating the point that i'm trying to make is that our extreme intolerant pressure on the government in jordan in the sea the leaders cannot accept any more refugees so where are these fifty thousand people likely to go. at the moment they are actually going deeper into that ever have standard to be in that route which means that they often closer to jordan they were to smugglers try to get into jordan will most likely adopt illegal means to get in there but some would also be something of an understanding between the gene and. rebels to develop

it is not that is existing at the moment but the whole something develops so then they can perhaps brutal regime held areas or be bussed again to italy which we've seen already happen in aleppo and. when you look at a map of the region the very one of the obvious questions that that strikes you is that well israel how about israel but that brings problems of its over. absolutely and that has been the biggest fear up whenever we thought of and discussed how what happens when assad is going to attack southwest city up that attack right now is happening in doubt that i was next to clean it up we need lies on the disputed golan heights a large part of which is already with israel now on tuesday israel did hit an area near damascus international airport in an attempt to tell the city regime that if the do attack we need to move a bit forward then reason could basically have another war with that war be between israel and city that will be between israel and hezbollah iranian proxy which is

infinite or will it be between israel and iran these are the big questions whether that these activities that are taking place that assad is now frankly can bet on what's next. is a sensitive sort of reaction sensitive atmosphere in that region in that region and actually in all of middle east the israelis now waiting to see what the americans will do because russian media to see spy out of course this is a violation of the cease fire i russia is striking that all along with us are so if the americans don't do anything as they've said it said that they will not be back in that list then what israel does that's an open question that's a good talking to as ever and show for her in beirut thank you let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world mexico's presidential election campaigns in turmoil the murders of five members of the leftist party leading the polls the five including states assembly account. lopez of and bondo was shot dead in the southern state of the haka i mean down there was

a group f a victory for your side would guarantee qualification for the knockout rounds and else would leave their fate in the hands of fellow challengers mexico and sweden and possibly mother nature. tuesday's torrential downpour in cousin is forecast to make way on wednesday for twenty nine degree heat germany will be hoping to complete a similarly dramatic turnaround after their underwhelming start to this tournament the weather ought to be one thing they can deal with globe i don't think our team will have more difficulties in south korea in dealing with the tempos and the heat . heat however is one thing the weight of german expectations and the squad selection questions that live faces are potentially tricky issues. will it. be given his first start or will live had a chance not so much as the spitz again but who will play alongside him antonio was

disappointing against sweden and nicholas is yet to see any action at all still whoever plays there's only one goal you need to win by two goals if possible the important thing is how we play. there's a lot on the line for lurve for his germany side it's already time to sink or swim . so that much are taking place in jonathan harding is that welcome jonathan so you like him has quite the selection headache you think you'll go for well who do i think you'll go for we heard about some of the choices he has to make in that clip just before and i think there are three big decisions for him in defense and sony really go on personally i think he's going to play ruediger again i don't think he's going to make another change in defense that would be unusual for love in midfield if someone could do it doesn't play in this game

there's a big chance he doesn't play again in this tournament and that's something i don't expect to see so i think india will play even if gorecki deserves it and thomas millar well he's probably a lot more out there he has to stay out there even if your brand has been good so some changes even if even if we won't see all of them. germany performance so far in the tournament have been well we'll call it a sub now they have a quite a tough task to reach the knockout stages just walk a circus. well walk you through it that's absolutely right it's pretty complicated so much you're going to read you through if that's so rife sweden a guarantee to qualify if they win or better germany's rizzo and as we heard there germany must win by two or more goals or better than sweden to guarantee their own qualifying so it's a pretty complicated situation if both germany and sweden draw then a team in the highest scoring game will finish second and if both draws of the same score line and germany finish head on second on head to head there's also the possibility that we have three teams on six points but that's quite

a long and convoluted explanation so we'll leave it at the fact that germany need to win by two or more goals to guarantee their spot in the next round ok and weather seems to be playing a something of a pos and i say it was dreadful weather yesterday and today it's predicted to be hot how is that likely to affect the players. but i imagine some of them after maybe ten fifteen minutes in this game will probably want to jump in the fountain behind me but they won't have that opportunity they will be lacking in energy because the weather is going to be very difficult to cope with it's going to be humid maybe up to fifty percent it reminds me of that game against algeria four years ago but the bottom line is germany cannot let the weather be the reason that they don't make the next round of this woke up jonathan harding in the thank you. on tuesday argentina needed a win to make sure they got through to the last sixteen but nigeria stood in their way also hoping to progress early on after a bad leg of long range pass and be a messy came up with the goods for his first goal for washington but nigeria

different and eventually equalized through penalty else's victim rose is celebrated and she believes she just a joy to advance before minutes from time marcus or roger smashed in the winner and the nigeria out and argentina through to friends. in the united states a federal judge has ordered the children separated from their parents the mexican border must be reunited within thirty days and that children under five in forty days the judge also issued an order order to stop the trumpet ministration spitting up any additional families who cross the border without papers the decision follows weeks of outrage at the separation of thousands of children from their parents by immigration authorities last week the president issued an executive order to stop the separations now holds migrant families together in detention in one

u.s. president donald trump has hailed a success in a different case the supreme court has decided to uphold his ballot on travel from several mainly muslim countries about his travels from five nations iran libya somalia syria and yemen the court rejected arguments that it discriminated against muslims and reversed rulings by lower courts that the measure was unconstitutional i have to build i will say now the move remains controversial. why. critics of the travel ban had hoped until the last minute that it wouldn't stand up in the highest court of law but that hype was dashed and replaced by shock and frustration but i am held here and they scream and shout. after months of legal wrangling the u.s. supreme court rejected the challenge that the travel ban discriminated against muslims the crowd here don't buy it back supreme court of the united

states has just given a green light to donald trump's religious discrimination and it's giving him the green light to discriminate against a group of people based on their faith wherever and whenever he chooses. emotions are running high today my heart broken. taking so much in me to hold back tears but i want to cry. and it's not only muslims who are protesting the ruling. the jewish community seeing that type of bio scapegoating and doing humanisation before and we must and we will resist and raise our voices now. democratic politicians also rush to condemn the ruling as to the supreme court justices who voted against
