the, the news this is the news live from birth phase of an oil spill grow intro lanka as the country's voice marine disaster expands a container ship carrying chemicals and plastic spoon for days and spilled with cargoes is now thinking. we'll get the latest from colombo, israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu days and office appear numbered after opponents agree, a coalition that could aston netanyahu has signaled he's not going down without a fight. and 40 years ago, the world was confronted with a new dangerous virus. that's when the world 1st learned about h i v and age now of renewed push to prevent it and treat them millions of people

who are positive. ah, i'm anthony how welcome. we started for like a where a cargo ship carrying tons of chemicals has partly sunk after catching on fire around 2 weeks ago. the environmental disaster is happening off some of the island nation's most important coastline near the capital. here in colombo, much of the ships, dangerous cargo has already fallen overboard with plastic and toxic chemicals spilling into what heavily fished waters. already, environmentalists have described the damage to the marine ecosystem as incalculable . and now authorities are preparing for possible oil slick. the flames may have been put out by authorities in sri lanka for the worse maybe

yet to come there preparing for a possible oil spill from the m. b express po, which is thinking of columbus main hobble may never know if the ship things the oil on the ship will leak to the ocean and the beach and our fishermen will lose their job. we cannot allow that. you get updated in the behind is happy then the local residents are ready reeling from the disaster. billions of plastic pellets have washed ashore, prompting a fishing ban and concerned for the environment. and i wanted to follow up on the ship is causing environmental damage in the local area. its fuel is mixing with the sea water that increases the mercury level in the fish in the water. so we can't really eat the fish, what a will have them in the hole because it's them. he does them in the ocean, it as a living,

being and fish. and lisa had been destroy the vessel which was ablaze for 12 days, had nearly 350 tons of oil in its fuel tanks. tons of toxic nitric acid, was also in its cargo, among other chemicals. a criminal investigation has now been launched into the countries was maritime environmental disaster. jamilla who's saying is the deputy editor of the daddy mirror, and he's piper in colombo, welcome davis from the navy, have been assessing to see if the ship will spill it. oil. what's the latest on that? when it's nighttime hang colombo and the, what the latest i have from the navy is that still and still has not been detected just a few hours ago. there was some pension and some kiosks which was created because they saw some what they emerging on the surface of the seas. but they said on me

and they brought things to them. the bad water which they feel was trapped in between the container teams on stand by the app. what is happening on top of the rest? those because they're not letting even the mormon go by where they want to neglected because they feel that and i feel maybe even at any time, even during the night tonight, the operations will continue to watch out for an hour. but what we have right now is that bill not started and investigation. so i actually on going to see if the, the 301 times of heavy fuel which they express was carrying has in monday the fire we'll just have to wait till morning to get an official confirmation on that. jimmy investigate this, the now looking at how this could happen, what do we know to this point?

well, after now what we do noise, i was just having a cardio check. one of the ministers shop mine and they said that probably one of the containers had leak when the ship was not clear from an indian port to the columbia port. and this may be the country and i was cutting the nitric acid. however, investigations are going on for them to officially announce anything the captain of the ship. the crew members of the ship has been question because they are being detained. they're actually being held up at the hotel in colombo. so what i believe is that it may have been due to a leak from the night to get the container, but we get to hear more about that to me. how widely will this disaster impact sherlyn comes when it gets already impacted? because right now we have a fishing banding starting from the south to the record. and along the sports, we have thousands of fishing families living for now prevented from going to see

which means that their lives. and as we speak, the thousands of people want to die on the beaches carrying off the clean up preparation because millions of drastic fitness we washed ashore from on the continent. marine life has basically been completely destroyed because we've been having tucker fish and you're not dead watching the show. people are prevented from going on to the beaches. the police have one people not to talk to anything because they may be as of this material and going forward. this might actually impact our tourism industry. is your mother who's saying thank you so much. is ralph benjamin netanyahu is fighting for his political life after 12 years as prime minister netanyahu cold on right wing war makers to block

a new would coalition from taking office. but he could be unseated in a matter of days. former opposition leader julia le pitt, from the attend or future party, has put together a coalition of parties from across the political spectrum in the hopes of forming a new government under the deal hotline religious nationalists. naphtali bennett, would initially become prime minister. this is the man who might lead israel for the next 2 years. natalie bennett has made his political career with provocative statements that established himself to the right of outgoing pm benjamin netanyahu . this is him last year she a bowl loaner show. we will not allow the israeli government to recognize a palestinian state under any circumstances. we will not allow israel to hand over even a centimeter of land to the arabs. this is what we are here for. to guard the land of israel. will ship them either. but bennet is also

a generation younger than that. yahoo has broken with allies on the religious right on the role of religion in public life. he's also comparatively liberal and gay rights and other issues. bennett is the son of american immigrants to israel. he made a fortune in high tech before jumping into politics in 2013, revamping the right wing subtler party jewish home model. he served as secretary of defense, and secretary of education under netanyahu. bennett would bring very little public support to the role in 2019 elections. has the amino party received no mandates and in the most recent round in one, just 7 out of the 120 seats in connecticut. i think it's a bit of a disgrace to someone who is elected with only 7 mandate. is the person who decides the fate of the country. i think that it's good for is although i'm from the left side. i believe that the new prime minister will unite israel because it is now

divided into many pieces. and we need to change. bennett has promised to work for all israelis, not just his supporters. then shallow because of the government like this will succeed only if we work together as a group, not i, we are not, we will bring back. so we was his real secret weapon day of its foundation. call on the floor. got with them or not leak on this lemon. shallow bennett would have his hands for guiding a coalition that spends the entire political spectrum. and israel would have its 1st taste of the post netanyahu era, for as long as it left for me on the story, i'm joined now by a political and leo analyst, dahlia schindler. she's a fellow at the century foundation and joined us from tell of if welcome, natalie bennett has been described as an ultra nationalist. if he governs true to those valleys. what would that hope?

what would that mean to hopes of resolving is israeli palestinian conflict? well it would maybe help resolve these really palestinian conflict in the eyes of israeli right wing national. i just want to point out that bennett, who was among the 1st israeli politicians in modern times, you actually actively campaign on an ex thing large portions of the west bank as far back as lead 2012 long before mister and then yahoo was actively advancing and annexation plan from april 19th. so bennett would be happy to resolve the conflicts based on annexation. but that isn't going to happen anytime soon. and i think when you asked about resolution, you were primarily talking about a negotiated agreements with the palestinian probably based on on the 2 state solution or something like it. it doesn't look very, especially for the prospect of that kind of solution because natalie bennett and

his party is basically does that again solution and he's not the only one in coalition. you don't, our party, whole new hope is a break away from the could. he's been a little bit less clear on exactly what you want, but it seems that he is not exactly a supporter of a palestinian state next to israel. and so they won't be the more hard line aspects of the coalition. we shouldn't remember that necessarily been, as you pointed out, you will be 1st in a rotation for prime minister. but with 60, in the coalition doesn't have 17 because one of his people on his list detected from the last. and you know, the coalition is made up of 61 members. he is still a minority and i don't, you know, we have to contend with competing views of a number of other parties who may have somewhat different views. but i don't see any big breakthroughs coming through for these really helped me to say the path forward is complex on that front. there already is we saw at the top of our bows and people celebrating in the streets,

the end of netanyahu's era. they perhaps underestimating this man's political survival skills. well, that is the question. everybody's trying to figure out. i mean, many people have bought this and yeah, who was the wrong leader leaving the country a stray for so many years that the idea of getting him out. 3rd seems like somewhere between the session and impossible. and so yes, some people are celebrating. but 1st of all, there is still a procedural hurdle in the past. it was simply a technicality, which is the wary in, by the snippet of those, particularly some days after somebody announces that he has, or she has been able to form a government in this case is even that is becoming politicized. the person who has to advance mode is the chairperson of the speaker of the who is of the could and yahoo, boylen. and he is expected to drag out that process longer than usual in the hopes that buying more time might allow natania who to convince some of the makers from the parties that have agreed to go into the coalition. not to go into the coalition

and change their votes, they would need quite a number because it's not a matter only of having one fewer than 61 boat, which is a majority needed to a majority for the coalition. they would have to reduce the number of votes and supported that party to fewer confidence votes. the non no vote because all you need is a simple majority government. so i think that it would be hard for me to actually carry down at the stage, but not in the analysts valley. i've seen lynn. thanks so much. thank you for having. okay, let's take a look now. some of the other stories making news around the world. relatives have gathered more than a politician from india's ruling b j. p. party, after he was shot dead in the disputed region of kashmir. police ivy on identified gunman opened fire on recast anita while he was visiting the town of authorities blamed separatist rebels for the attack. russian court has ruled to keep permanent
