anniversary of last year's violence in charlottesville how exactly is the ensuring that this is not going to be a clash as we saw last year. well so i'm standing right up against a police barrier and there are at least two levels of police between three levels of police really between me and where the counter protesters are and indeed there is another police barrier a physical barrier there the police have said the police commissioner earlier this week said their goal was to keep things as peaceful as possible and that meant keeping the two sides apart now this is not a very big space here and lafayette park as it really is kind of a maze and they manage to keep everyone apart given how many people are here to counter protests but there really aren't that many are right when protesters here right now things have remained pretty calm over though it is beginning to thunderstorm the white supremacists are supposed to be here within the next hour or two hours or so we'll see how many counter protesters are still here after that and

we'll see where things go from there well maya thank you for braving the weather for us but what has been the message so far from the so-called anti fascist groups and also the white nationalists the anti-fascist groups are here and i spoke with a couple of them earlier in the week and they say they want to really show the world that this is not dc's message is message of white supremacy is not what washington d.c. stands for they're a multicultural place that you see a lot of black lives matter science a lot of prose socialist signs and a lot of signs at the base of it this is a very anti trump city he only want to about ten percent of the vote here the white nationalists on the other hand are here to say that with their voices are being marginalized and i was especially the message of jason castro the man who organized this. with the latest from washington thank you. let's now look at some of the other stories making news around the world a powerful explosion in north and syria has reportedly killed at least thirty six

people including many children the force of the blast toppled buildings burying many of the victims the origin of the explosion is still unclear but a british based wanted to group says rebel weapons depot in the basement might have detonated. the five countries bordering the caspian sea have reached a landmark deal on its legal status the convention signed by russia iran as a bio john kazakhstan and turkmenistan decades of dispute over the world's largest includes body of water and its huge oil and gas reserves iran says dividing up the seabed will require additional agreements. jordanian security forces have pulled the bodies of three suspected militants from the rubble of their collapsed hideout following a deadly shootout four soldiers were also killed when the a scene that's opened fire and set off explosions saturday the clash west of the capital amman is one of the deadliest in recent years. in

mali went to the polls on sunday in a presidential runoff maad by reports of violence security sources say an election official was shot and killed by jihadists in the north of the country incumbent. cast his vote in the capital bamako and he's up against some. in twenty thirteen. claims the west african state has become even more secure indicates his rule extremists killed three polling station workers and seized voting materials in the first round of the election last month. so let's bring in journalist who is joining us from capital bamako brown we've had reports of a polling station chief being killed today has there been widespread violence and if so did it affect voting. recording to the european union observer mission which held a press conference

a little on the stuart ended experience and were very sort of no major incidents apart from the ones that you mentioned reported i think the general picture here is of the regular moment it's been less violent during the first round although that may also have to do with the simple fact that fewer people turned up to vote. so incoming president abraham. came out of the first round with just over twenty percent of opposition candidates on my list this say any chance that says they will catch up this time round. down very little chance of that happening the incumbent president kerry directly huge advantage coming out of the first round and for that to call that gap to be filled you need a very large turnout in the second round so you can mobilize to vote for rick and bring down the this haven't happened turnout if anything is any indication is anything to go by is actually lower than in the first which usually plays into the hands of the incumbent so this is very much looks like

a fairly comfortable win for the incumbent president you're going to look after from posthumus joining us from bomb acoa thank you. nasa has launched a groundbreaking mission to unlock the secrets of ahsan after twenty four hour delay due to a technical problem the park a solar probe finally lifted off from cape canaveral in florida a spacecraft is named after a physicist eugene parker who predicted the existence of the solar wind sixty years ago the one point five billion dollar mission is being described as one of the most ambitious projects have a taken by the u.s. space agency. this is a mission solar physicists could only dream of for sixty years. a space probe the can approach the sun close enough to enter its atmosphere. the objective is to examine how solar flares formed. when currents of electronically

charged particles hit the earth they threaten sensitive electronics and satellites that's why scientists want to be able to forecast devastating solar storms. the parker solar probe will gather the necessary data with four instruments this means coming closer to the sun than any other space probe as before. and to be successful it has to survive being showered by energy particles and extreme radiation this extremely hostile environment demands highly developed technology a carbon heat shield with a sickness of twelve centimeters on the probe enters the sun scorching atmosphere its surface will heat up to fourteen hundred degrees celsius the onboard computer has to continually readjust the heat shield so that electronic and measuring devices inside can remain at room temperature and keep working if the probe falters

in some way unprotected parts will simply melt. with every approach to the sun the probe has to fold in its solar panels behind the heat shield only a small part can be exposed to extreme radiation. the probe has been fitted with this cooling system during a flight through the sun's atmosphere it will cool the solar antennas and keep the instruments working. the parkers orbit the sun twenty four times coming closer to the start each time until the end of the year twenty twenty four when it's supposed to make its final approach solar physicists are eagerly anticipating a troop of new data. in sports pie and have claimed their first trophy of the season off to beating front foot in the german cup they want to make a champions dominate of the match with striker robert lewandowski scoring

a hat trick by and eventually won the match five it was their first competitive match and a new coach. well nick mckenna climbed from. the super cup and he now joins us from frankfurt so nick job done it would seem for by and what stood out for you in their first four months and. i thought was very interesting to see that hasn't actually got a fingerprint on this team and no blueprint has the same buying we've seen season in season out for so long because they're very very good team of course they're a well oiled machine they've always played so well and so strongly but today they were incredibly ruthless against frankfurt they took every single opportunity they could to get a goal to just increase that score line it's interesting i mean of course just got

a very poor world cup he's come back to school three goals and we've seen other players who didn't before the world cup who are back to it best it's best their best it seems out by and but i'm not sure if that could just be as i mentioned because bind is such a good and strong well oiled machine so by and the well oiled machine which makes me wonder what about frankfurt i mean what does this result tell us about the expectations for this season. i think frank i have to go back to the drawing board their performance today wasn't as bad as the scoreline would suggest especially the first time the first half they did fight back they were running after the ball trying to get a goal back trying to at least attack by him but they have souls for key players ahead of this season and you can tell that they're missing you can tell that frankfurt need to practice need to get their new players who are not of the same quality of the ones who have left to improve to carry the team in the ways the other ones have done and i think they will need to think about getting another new goalkeeper the man in goal today was very very poor he was born in april and

because he was bought because we didn't see left the club and he did not make a very good day before frankfurt today so make given how strong buy and have come in is there a chance that another team could well take the bundesliga this season. i doubt i mean this is by is always going to be the team to beat especially in the form that they are in and if they have been in the last couple of years the dormant of course will be strong this year with the players they brought in with the helm shall be a very strong. the bonus league is a real buy and once when they win anywhere where they want to win is in europe that's where they want to win the champions league and that's where a coach has to prove himself and prove that he is indeed maybe a very good coach or just an also ran and that's going to be the hot the toughest hostile by munich in the coming months nic mechanic line joining us from found to thank you. when the sleekest side shall come have lost a key part of their defense just before the start of the season defend has joined

french champions for reasons among according to reports the twenty one year old cost the french signed a whooping thirty seven million euros to complete the transfer making it abundantly go record fee for a defender keva has played a child since twenty fifteen and won the under twenty one year a can championship last year with germany. and in the austrian motorcycle grand prix defending champion mark marquez of spain failed to win from pope position for the first time this season it was this fellow spanish rider jorge lorenzo who made the best of the day instead overtaking marquez early on in the in the race there is a maintained the lead and managed to beat marquez by an extremely narrow margin of just zero point one seconds. to windsurfing now you can already see those gorgeous pictures and spain claim top
