>> this isis al jazeera. ♪ >> hello. this is ththe news hour lilive m london. coming up, tehran rejects a u.s. claim that iran attacked two oil tankers and accuses rushing to of sabotage diplomacy. the world health organization decides not to declare an international emergency over the ebola outbreak in the democratic congo.c of accuses washington of

sabotage diplomacy. nationanal strike over pension reforms in brazil. we will be live in sao paulo. >> and in sport, the cricket world cup, guiding the host to winds. >> welcome to the program. our top story -- britain has joined the u.s. in accusing iran --attacking two oil takers tankers in the gulf of oman. the united states released grainy video to back up its claim, but iran denies it is to blame. stephanie decker has this report. happened to the tankers in the gulf of oman? that depends on who you ask. an iranian tv video shows a

norwegian-owned tankerer on fir. u.s. centralal command released on frfriday,early claiming it t shows iranian revolutionary guards removing an unexploded mind from the japanese-owned ship. the timesestamp according to americans shows it happened after the vessel's crew has been rescued. nothing is clear, but the message from the u.s. administration is iran was behind it. >> it is the assessment of the united states government that the islamic republic of iran is responsible for the attacks in today.f of oman this assessment is based on intelligence, the weapons used, the level of expertise you to execute the operation, recent similar iranian attacks on shipping, and the fact that no privacy group operating in the area has the resources and proficiency to act with such a high degree of sophistication. >> in tokyo, the breakdown from who on the ship

seems to shed doubt on the american version of events. the company video shows were what is called a shot hit the tanker in two areas. the head of the company gave more details. >> the crew was saying that it was hit by a flying object. they say something came flying p or to put a bomb on the side of the boat is something we are not considering. >> iran has dismissed the u.s. accusations that it was behind the alleged attacks, calling the incident suspicious. it's foreign minister accusing americans of trying to sabotage diplomacy is the incident happened when the chinese -- the was ine prime minister tehran. all crew members were safely evacuated. both tankers were damaged around the waterline. >> the main thing to note is that they are quite small more heads, whatever they are, so those are not enormous entry

penetration marks. clearly have not had a huge amount of explosives behind them, so if it were something like that, a ship missile, you would expect a lot more damage on the ship. are fare moment, there more questions than answers, but this iscertain is provocative and dangerous. >> the united states has stepped overall the norms and regulations of the international community and has created new threats for the region and the world. >> in the past few hours, the u.s. defense secretary has been speaking about the tanker explosions. has the trump administration

given any indication of what its next move might be? >> certainly, patrick shanahan did not back down from the admin a straight's claim that iran is behind these attacks. theyr, he is now saying are focused on building international consensus toward their findings. that was something the united states was not able to do, you may recall, when it withdrew from the nuclear deal with iran. decideds closest allies to remain in that deal, as did iran and the other signatories. now in the u.k., we are hearing supporting the u.k.'s claim. from shanahan we are hearing this is the focus of the entire administration. they are committed to building support. tell, we have an international situation in the middle east. it is not a u.s. situation. is to build

international consensus to this international problem. as all of you are very aware, the department of defense, one of our roles is to set the conditions for diplomacy. ist i would share with you this is part of the conversations we all had about transparency and getting intelligence, you will see we have the big push in the last 24 hours to continue to get information out. >> shanahan was also asked about sending more troops or military capabilities to the region. issaid that the focus now definitely on consensus building. he really differed on the question but said that they were always planning the contingencies. the pentagon's role at this time is primarily sharing the intelligence to build that consensus. he pointed out that the strait responsible for 15%'s of the nation's oil reserves or supplies coming

through the area. continues to be that the united states does not want conflict, but it is ready to defend its interests. >> thank you very much for the latest from washington. meanwhile, the united nations secretary-general has condemned the incident in the gulf of oman and says the truth about what happened must be established. our total medic editor has more on this now from u.s. headquarters in new york. >> addressing reporters alongside the arab league secretary-generaral, antonio guterres said remarkrkably thate hahad not seen t this video reld by the pentagon that broadcast around the world. he said he believed there should be an independent investigation -- the incident, but >> the secretary-general of the united nations has not the right to launch the investigation. only the security council can do it. i am in light of that not the

right person to answer your questions. said that high-level mediation was needed, but again, his hands were tied. >> the office of the secretary-general without the body of the united nations can only be amended with parties. >> the secretary-general seems to be placing limits on his own actions and they are limits not laid out in the united nations governing document, the u.n. charter, so why does mr. gutierrez appeared to be so reluctant to get involved? i asked his official spokesperson. in the tell me where charter are the limits on his offices, where are the limits to stop him setting of his own investigation? i cannot find them. >> any secretary-general needs a you in legislative body to set up an investigation.

that has been the practice. as long as i have been here. >> does he not need to carve out a more powerful role? is he not in effect shirking his response ability at a time of global crisis? he should be leading and he's finding excuses not to. >> i don't think he is shirking his responsibility at all. >> the secretary-general is clearly just clearly putting the ball in the court of the security council, but there are already issues of me -- there are already problems with this issue. the council is deeply divided. if mr. gutierrez is waiting on the security council for permission to get involved, he may be waiting a very long time. then again, he probably already knows that. >> paul salem is the president of the middle east institute and joins me live now from washington. the united states has presented what could be described as circumstantial evidence, but the conclusions are emphatic that iran was almost certainly behind

these tanker attacks. what does everything you have seen and heard so far suggest about the shape is conflict might take? >> regardless of who was actually behind this attack, and i suppose we do not know for certain, it is certainly the case that the u.s. and iran are in sort of the beginnings of a conflict. the u.s. imposed crippling sanctions on iran. this effectively an act of economic warfare. iran has said quite clearly that they will not sit idly by while their economy is brought to its knees. they said they would inflict some of itin and might be pain inflicted on american allies in the region, such as saudi arabia and the uae. i have also communicated that if iran is not allowed to export iran is in al,

position to prevenent others in the region from exporting their oil. regardless o ofs this major evevent yesterday in the gulf. there was also a very major escalation in saudi arabia on wednesday with an attack on a there isairport, so escalation beyond the issue of the tankers, so we are in a dangerous and delicate situation. >> in the past, iran has threatened to close that strategic waterway in response to punitive action that has been taken against it. would they actually do this?

>> he is at the beginning of a very difficult election campaign in the united states, so simply by sort of rattling those sabers securityng sort of the oil flows, has already impacted oil prices, they have certainly gotten president trump's attention. however, as we saw with prime minister shinzo abe's attempt to begin mediation efforts, right now, those efforts are not bearing fruit. >> right. in that case, those efforts not bearing fruit and her does not appear to be a mechanism for de-escalation, so how close can you get to an armed conflict without actually having one? can we expect to see a steady stream of attacks on ships and tankers in the gulf around the

strait of hormuz where -- to the point where does disrupt shipping? >> i think there is a chance for de-escalation. i think that is what president trump and prime minister of a -- inme minister abe discussed mexico, but his administration slapped new sanctions on iran on the petrochemical industry, which is an extremely important industry for iran and that was after he had met with prime minister shinzo abe. i think that step kind of ruined that phase of attempted mediation. i think president trump and the iranians do have a narrow common interest and that is in avoiding war. both iran and trump do not want a war. they do not want a major military escalation, but iran relief.t some

that is something president trump might be able to do by offering friendly countries like japan, like taiwan and south korea and india and greece and italy by extending their waivers, which is something he could do as a gesture to allies. that might also ease tensions vis-a-vis iran. i'm not sure if that is what prime minister abe was wanting to pose, but there is a possibility of de-escalation. not easy. if that does not work, i think we're in for a long period of trouble in saudi arabia and the uae and the gulf that might lead to escalations, might lead to attacks on iranian basis -- es on the iranian coast. one of the first steps we might see it might be a u.s. decision to provide naval as -- exports for commercial shipping in the gulf. >> thank you very much.

for yemen'spokesman them tooup is warning stay away from airports. operations on airports and military sites will continue as long as the war in yemen goes on. another military official has told al jazeera that it's retaliation against previous saudi attacks. >> the drone operation of the airport is a strategic attack, a result in complete instruction of the radar system which means navigation of commercial flights will be terminated. such a move puts the king and his regime in a difficult position. this is why the army spokesperson warned international flights and passengers from getting close to saudi airports. our tax on said airports are revenge for saudi and uae attacks on our airports. by attackingiate seaports. >> there's much more still ahead

on this news hour. a bill allowing extraditions from hong kong to china might be after political support protests. we will be live in mexico as the president promises tight security at dozens of border crossings to combat the flow of migrants to the u.s. later in sports, the toronto raptors make history with their first ever nba title. will have the details. the world health organization has decided not to declare an international public health emergency over the ebola outbreak in the democratic republic of congo. thereeople have died since august and the second worst outbreak in history comes amid concerns the virus may have spread to uganda where two people have died after visiting the drc. isso infectious and deadly ebola that every precaution was

made with this victim was buried. her grandson died of the disease days earlier. they had crossed from neighboring democratic republic of congo where another family member was killed by the disease. >> for my son, they came to the market. she got seriously sick and crossed the border to uganda. the pair cameht in contact with nearly 100 people. on thursday, relatives of the deceased who had come from congo were sent back. >> they did request we allow the confirmediate cases that were with us in uganda and there were two good reasons for that. one is that in the drc

currently, they have the therapeutic drug that can be given to patients, though the medicine is still on trial, but it can be given and compassionate cases. >> the world health organization says although the ebola outbreak it is not yetus, an international emergency. >> it was the view of the committee that the outbreak is a health emergency in the andcratic republic of congo the region, but it does not meet the three criteria for a public health emergency of international concern. went huge challenge is uganda's porous border with the drc. -- one huge challenge.

detention centers are overwhelmed with more than 140,000 migrants crossing the summit for the last month. evidence has surfaced that migrants are being held outdoors in the summer heat without access to basic services. paso,e reports from el texas. >> three month ago, the u.s. government kept migrants who recently crossed the border locked under a bridge.

after publiced outcry, but in recent weeks, a new one has appeared. no longer under the shaded under publicleared scrutiny, but rather, hidden from sight under the glare of the sun. by a photos were taken government professor who says he discovered the camp after walking through an unlocked gate . >> the ones in their 20's and 30's were able to scrounge for themselves. tarpaulin that orderoncocted together in to provide themselves a little bit of shade. >> the area is not accessible to the public. the government would not allow journalists in, either. all we can see here are the tops of the 10 tarp. been with them, people hidden from sight. >> al jazeera's secretly shot

-- the camp.he cap they get thousands of passersby a day, most unaware of the migrants. >> they had been there 30 days or more. they had not washed once. they had not been given any access to washing facilities at all the entire time they were there. spokesperson did not answer questions about the condition of the camp and number of detainees was said in a statement, during the current crisis, u.s. border patrol has had to take extraordinary ofsures to ensure the safety our agents and those in our custody. as such and to avoid severe overcrowding of u.s. border patrol temporary holding facilities, every available space which provides both freedom of movement, safety, and security for those in our custody, are used as necessary. >> what we have seen a sustained violations of human rights.

in the past, there were just apples, better cases, bad officers that were mistreating people. today, the mist treatment -- the mistreatment has become part of the systemic problem. for human network rights says it has never encountered such widespread abuse and neglect at u.s. border facilities and government inspectors themselves have documented dangerous overcrowding. the conditions have contributed to illnesses and deaths and continue to deteriorate. >> meanwhile, mexico says it will tighten security to stem the flow of migrants in america. video shows markets being cared from a border town. low security and people smuggling operations have turned

the area into a crossing point for thousands. clearly, the government is facing pressure to take these sorts of measures. you had the opportunity to ask the mexican president about it. >> exactly. the report, as you say, shows convoys of trucks heading over from ader from guatemala very specific point and taking migrants most of. i asked the president about that and it is a sensitive moment with the u.s. and mexico because the u.s. has given mexico a month and a half to really grab .- clamp down on migration at the moment, it is what everyone is talking about, and i in thehe president why more than a year locals say this

has been happening has the government not received notice or done anything about it? this was his response. >> we have identified 68 border crossing points, and in all of them, there will be vigilance. that is what i can tell you. >> he did not really answer our question, but he did say he was going to get tough on border crossing points. also says it will send 6000 members of the newly formed national guard to the southern border. there is some skepticism, i have about armed forces that were perhaps already there on the border that we just given a new uniform or new armor. we have seen that happen when we reported on the national guard in other parts of the country. something else that also happened today is that the head of the migration institute in

mexico has resigned. was is someone who perceived as wanting a more humane treatment of migrants. many escaping poverty or violence and obviously, the mexican government pushed this direction by the united states, by president trump. it is really reinforcing the border. thoughts that might have contributed. that seems to be imaging today is that one of the country's most popular word ofrs said they got a secret agreement between the united states and mexico. they does not seem to be a lot

we do not already know, but it a third state country and mexico being a third state country. what that means is that asylum seekers are headed to the united states from central america to get to the united states would be turned down for asylum because it would be considered safehad already reached a country and arriving in mexico. if you have been following our reporting, you'll know that mexico is undergoing a period of record violence at the moment, so it might seem slightly bizarre that mexico would be considered a safe country, but it is definitely something that has been mentioned, that seems to be on the table. >> thank you very much. there is more still ahead for you from london. tear gas fired at protesters in they reject the presence of security forces in the

capital. wikileaks founder julian assange order to face a hearing next february. hello there. for most in is hot europe at the moment, and that hot weather is giving us quite a few thunderstorms. some particularly heavy ones at the moment t made their w way io parts of france and up into parts of germany. lots of heavy downpours out of this. thunder and lightning and large hailil as well. these thunderstorms will gradually push t their way eastward as wewe head intohehe y sunday and that will be dragging usn t temperatures for some o f at least. for the no higher than 22 2 as e head through sunday, but still the ririsk of a f few thunderere downpours.

will the west, finally beginning to dry out for some of us here and temperatures will be rising over the next few days as well. really has been very small here. of us here with worse i still seem temperatures around 30 degrees and still the risk of a few thunder he downpours here, too. from the other side of the mediterranean, largely fine and dry for many of us. we are seeing more clouds over parts of algeria drifting eastward over parts of tunisia there as we head through saturday. the risk of 102 showers out of this. resolves asadually we head through sunday, most of us having a dry day. this plenty of showers here, uganda seeing quitite a few wesest.g their way

>> welcome back. a quick look at the top stories this hour. iran has rejected u.s. claims that it was behind two tagger explosions in the gulf of oman. the u.s. released video to back up its claims, but germany has also spoken out saying it is conclusive. almost. saying it is certain part of the iranian military was involved. the world health organization has decided not to declare an international public health emergency over the ebola outbreak in the democratic republic of congo. appears it could spread to uganda now after two people died there this week. people have been warned to stay

away from airports and saudi arabia and the ua e. say they will continue to target those sites as long as the war in yemen goes on. thursday's tagger explosions in journey of oman join live viaell skype from hampshire in the u.k. thank you for taking the time to speak to us. despite the ratcheting up of tensions we have seen, no one is expecting a full-blown conflict anyeen iran and the u.s. time soon, but what we have seen in terms of these tagger explosions in the gulf of oman, what does that suggest about the implications of any such conflict? are asuggests if there continuation of these attacks, them both the commercial sector, ship makers themselves, will

into what measures they can take and the international community will need to start provide>> we know the strata fs is a vital waterway for oil and commodities that flows out of the gulf countries to the wider market. what could we see in terms of long-term if there is disruption or this sort of continuous short-term destruction? >> we're already seeing some impact commercially. they are a strategic strait, but remember, we have been here before. back in the days of the iran/iraq war in the 1980's. navies were deployed to protect ships, and yet, the world carried on. people have to make adjustments. there were commercial impacts on

the iranians were not in that case it'll to close off the street of hormuz and is no reason why they should be in this case, either. >> you mentioned that we have seen tensions and iraq over the business of oil tankers in the area before and you mentioned the conflict we saw in the late 1980's. i'm wondering, since then, have governments or even the private sector taken measures to mitigate that from happening again? to limit the sort of capability of any country to disrupt trade flows through that area? >> i think it is very difficult to say in terms of international some will be less deploy and perhaps the way they did back in the 1980's, but from the private sector, i think they have made huge

advances, mainly as a result of the somali privacy problem in the indian ocean. the commercial sector has got used to taking protective measures, self protective measures, including the use of to supplement the crew and provide them with additional support. there are things the private sector can be doing, and they are very used to doing that, and i think judicious use of and other security measures, both in the gulf of oman and through the strait of hormuz, will pay dividends. >> thank you very much for sharing your thoughts on the story with us. chairman of risk management security master joining us. parts of brazil have come to a standstill during a 24-hour nationwide strike to protest against proposed pension reforms. demonstrators in brazil's largest city block a major road with burning tires.

public transport services have also been disrupted around the country. for byike was called trade unions angry over proposed changes which would see the minimum retirement age raised and workers contributions increased. much disruption and paralysis did this cause? >> a fair amount. not just here in sao paulo but riots across brazil. we were touring sao paulo early this morning and we saw so many metro stations were closed, banks were closed, none of the schools were operating. as you can see behind me, a short while ago, there were thousands of people blocking the main avenue in sao paulo. a fair number of people represented -- major trade unions here in brazil, what they say is really the beginning of a campaign against these pension reforms. there were one million or so demonstrations across

brazil in the middle of may. those are continuing today. >> certainly, it seems as though still going, as we can see from some of the demonstrators there behind you, but we have also been seeing some pictures coming to us from rio. this is not just confined to sao paulo. se're certainly seeing protest across the country, and i guess that makes it quite difficult for the president to ignore. >> that's right. certainly in rio de janeiro and the major cities in the north of brazil where the bulk of the supporton resides and for the opposition workers party is very strong there. he has been in office for five and a half months only. this was one of the reforms he promised. said it was essential to get

brazil's ailing economy back on track. he really thrives on this kind of conflict, so it's unlikely he will take a great deal of notice, but as i said, this was the beginning of a longer campaign. people here see this as a fundamental change to their working conditions, their future living conditions, so it is only likely to get bigger. are has been a big turnout and impact on the brazilian economy today. >> thank you very much, with all the latest from sao paulo. the hong kong government may be wavering in its support for a proposed law to allow extradition to mainland china. the advisor to hong kong's leader says politicians should stop discussing bills because of the level of opposition. they're facing mounting pressure to abandon the controversial bill after hundreds of thousands took to the streets to protest it. another master menstruation is due to take place sunday.

>> a group calling themselves similar the mothers until a week or so ago did not exist, but it's very much in keeping with the spirit of the movement that has been sweeping through hong kong. it is spontaneous and what's more, impassioned with speaker after speaker talking about their opposition to this controversial extradition law. it gives an idea of the breadth of opposition. not just political groups, the they moderate or more radical, not just students, but a whole breadth of hong kong society against the controversial law that resulted in one million people taking to the streets .ast sunday there has been all kinds of thers circulating that chief executive might be about to make a statement that there

might be some sort of change in the offing. there has been interestingly, a statement from a senior government advisor that maybe the government should delay pushing this bill through the legislative council. certainly, the government seems to be stunned by the strength of it may see this coming weekend up to one million people taking to the streets again sunday. >> tear gas has been fired against protesters in mali's f -- demonstrations broke out as demonstrations broke out. >> people are here at what is of the the cooperation government and its neighbors involving their military working together to fight insurgents throughout the region. 5eople are angry because the g-

moved its headquarters to hear and they deal with the conflict being brought to their doorstep. that is why they have started burning tires and branches in the streets. further inrters was the center of the country and it was attacked by the separatists, so the headquarters have moved here, but there had not otherwise been a great deal of violence. people for the government has not done anything to help them and now they are being put at risk. want them to leave. we want them to get out. just down there, the police are protecting them. police have been coming up to protests going around the neighborhood, firing tear gas. break,me there is a protesters gather, some throwing stones, setting fire to tires and other things in the road. people here are not happy at all

. >> a u.k. court has ordered wikileaks julian assange to face a full extradition hearing next february. assange is fighting extradition to the u.s. where he will face charges related to the leaking of government secrets. >> julian assange watched the video link as the date was set for his extradition hearing. the wikileaks founder said to be in poor health and serving a 50-week sentence for bail violations, we'll have to wait until february 2020 for a full hearing on the u.s. request. >> this case raises unlimited questions about freedom of speech. we heard in court today it is an outrageous affront to journalistic protesters. u.s. court, the 18-count department of justice indictment was read out. including government

computer hacking and the soliciting and publishing of classified information. they relate to the publication in 2010 of hundreds of thousands of secret u.s. military documents to do with the wars in iraq and afghanistan. the indictment reads that the charges relate to assange's alleged role related to one of the largest leaks of classified information in the history of the united states. supporters disagree. how for a long p1 of time, he has been subjected to psychological torture. man who put his own self centrist -- self-interest aside with his work and gave this knowledge to the people. call is for the u.k. government to step in and block extradition to the united is.

homeer this week, the secretary signed off on the request, calling it legitimate, saying it was right mr. assange is in u.k. custody and making it the government's decision as this is a decision solely now for the courts. in april, julian assange was ejected from the ecuadorian embassy where he had sought refuge for seven years following a swedish extradition request on charges of rape in 2012. with a court date set and a legal battle ahead, assange is several months away yet from finding out if he will have to answer u.s. charges in a u.s. court. >> the international court of justice in the netherlands has rejected a request from the united arab emirates for immediate measures against qatar in a dispute over alleged discrimination. the hearing as part of a wider legal battle between the arab neighbors being heard by judges in the hague. qatar has made a number of claims to the court after the

uae and several other gulf countries imposed by land, sea, and air blockade to years ago. >> the court has rejected an application for an emergency injunction known as provisional measures by the uae on the grounds that qatar was in some way prejudicing a much wider case between the countries. now that its application for the injunction is being rejected, the focus goes back to that wider case, focused on if the uae has violated an all important international convention, the convention on elimination of all forms of racial discrimination during the country's blockade of qatar. >> we are actually extremely pleased of the judgment coming from the court today. it recognizes that the true victim of this racial is theination case people, not the government of the uae. >> according to legal experts, it could take months if not years before we get the result in the full case, but in the meantime, last summer, the icj

ruled the uae had indeed been responsible for racial discrimination against qataris in the blockade and ordered the uae allow qatari national separated during the blockade to be reunited and that students be allowed to continue their studies without risk of deportation. thousand obligatory order by the court. last month, the uae hit back that qatar was deliberately trying to make it look as if the uae was not following court orders and asked for an emergency injunction of their own on a number of different grounds, including the belief that qatar had deliberately and purposefully visaed access to a uae title. that is an accusation the qataris deny, saying that the reason why they blocked the site was the subject or to risk. a number of claims made by the

uae have now been rejected at the icj. >> if the claims have any validity to the more not, is there risk of irreparable harm that justifies an emergency, versus putting off these for a later date? >> qatar and uae have hired some of the best legal teams in the world. entirey, uae fired its team and hired a new one. at the heart of this, although it is a bitter political dispute, the belief of qatar that it's citizens are being prejudiced against. >> the men accused of killing 51 people in the christchurch mosque attack has pleaded not guilty to all charges. the trial will begin next year and is expected to last for up to three months.

>> 51 people were killed at two mosques. on friday, the man accused of the shootings pleaded not guilty to murder. his lawyer said his client also pleaded not guilty to 40 charges of attempted murder and one of engaging in a terrorist act. here when he was first in court the day after the attacks, appeared via video link from where he is being held in auckland. he stayed silent but often grinned or smirked. at one point, he winked to this camera. more than 100 family members of victims and people who were shot but survived were in court to see him. for them, it was difficult. everyone is disgusted when they see this man's smiling face . >> he was shot nine times?

and there you were seeing the men accused of doing that. >> with our stronger than him. is the weak link. he is going to be the loser and we will win. in march, as a zero was invited to his father's funeral. he can to see the man accused of killing him. came to see the man accused of killing him. >> what can you do after losing a father, loved one. what can you do now? >> but others are angry. >> we lost our -- we lost part of our -- ] obbing >> clearly very upsetting. >> very upsetting.

>> new zealand abolished the death penalty in 1989 and has not executed anyone for more than 60 years, but he does face life in prison if convicted. aials normally start within year of the arrest, but the would not beat possible with this when given the complexity of the case and the amount of evidence. it will not be until next may that the trial starts, and it could last longer than three months. >> more still to come. don't go anywhere. fansnadian basketball witnessed a first in their country. that's coming up.
