state media announced that she had died in a fistfight inside the saudi consulate in istanbul following an argument the statement clearly implies this was not a premeditated murder it also said eight hundred saudis had been arrested in connection with the death and the second in command of the saudi intelligence service a siri and other top officials have been sacked a leading saudi dissident told german television these moves are aimed at removing blame from crown prince mohammed bin solomon. it is obsolete impossibility to imagine this team fifteen members. coming in the one and even the even from different department a country and doing this job without literally knowledge done addict all of them from. the shocking events alleged by turkish investigators have put the saudis

under pressure to explain but the official statement has been met by skepticism in many parts of the world u.s. president donald trump our ever says riyadh's version could be plausible. and you minutes again it's early we haven't finished our review or investigation observateur say the saudis may have silenced. not only because he was a journalist critical of the crown prince but also had close ties to the west and turkey. all right for more on the story we're joined by nodded aside as he is from arabic now that it's good to see it does this latest saudi vision of events seem credible it's hard to believe that the royal family the crown prince mohammed bin son and his father king son mandate that they didn't know about this death of a. jamal khashoggi. especially they have been denying it for two

weeks and now they say oh he died in the in the consulate because the to officials will be sacked today a syrian pattani they are from the inner circle circle of crown prince and that's why it's hard to believe that they didn't know about the death of jamal khashoggi and it's not really easy to buy this narrative speaking of buying the snatch of leader that we saw in the reports that u.s. president donald trump is somewhat by intuition but i wondered how people in the arab world are responding to the saudi narrative now i've been looking at the government didn't know that america should do was that there are so many questions about how come that somebody goes into a fistfight in the consulate and dies immediately and how come they didn't know anything or we don't know anything about the body what did happen to the body would have we don't really know so this whole narrative is very very weak and. there are

really very few people outside saudi arabia who believe this narrative that i want to ask you this how will be remembered in the arab world first we have to know that she wasn't always a dissident he was critical to the regime but he was loyal he was also. very. he was of the incident of the crown prince but when mohamed been some man and his father came to power. i think he was or damascus it was you know too uncomfortable to him and he went to the u.s. to in his. to to exile practically and i think now he will be remembered as i and i kind of freedom of speech which is a very crucial thing and so i don't even know right now. eric thank you for that on saturday evening the german foreign minister save bilin should not

launched early saturday the craft is carrying twins satellites one can and one japanese it will release them into all of us around the rocky planets tables and at least a year mapping and analyzing the sun's closeness and entry neighbor. b.p. colombo is one of the european space agency's most complex missions. the probe will fly by the earth venus and mercury a total of nine times using the gravity of those planets to decelerate and avoid being drawn to it to do by the sun's huge gravitational pull it will finally enter orbit around mercury in december two thousand and twenty five when it will release its two research satellites. it's a complicated trajectory we have to follow to get to mercury it's not actually getting there that's difficult but it is very difficult to maneuver into orbit

that's what makes this flight path complicated and that has to do with the fact that mercury is so close to the sun. as a simple straight flight path would send the craft hurtling directly into the sun our home stars huge mass would make entering orbit around mercury impossible. so close to the sun temperatures are extreme baby colombo will have to withstand conditions of up to four hundred fifty degrees celsius but parts of the planet that never see the sun can be as cold as minus one hundred eighty degrees part of baby colombo's mission is to find out what the planet is made of and how it might have formed that will give scientists a much better idea of the conditions close to the sun four and a half billion years ago when our solar system was taking shape. one of the two satellites on the twin mission will measure mercury is magnetic field to try to solve some of these puzzles meanwhile it sibling satellite will examine mercury's

rocky surface taken together all this information will give scientists new insights into the birth of our solar systems in a planet's. at the german aerospace center researches heat to rest really rocks to the kind of temperatures reached on mercury they want to find out how rocks behave under such extreme conditions the results will help them interpret the findings harvested from baby colombo's cameras and spectrometers and finally reveal mercury secrets all right football fans don't phrase because i'll make mechanic line level the goals from match day eight of the bundesliga right off to the break can champions by munich get back to win his ways off to a string and characteristic defeats all will be a bad run of form continue that and more coming up in just a minute. we'll have more news at the top of the hour.
