Theres going to be yes im actually in the Brussels Prosecutors Office or expecting a statement from them in the next few minutes but we have been told that essentially. Deposed cabinet ministers have actually presented themselves to the National Police the National Police headquarters here in brussels that said he was saying all along that he was going to cooperate with the judicial authorities here so we have had. Confirmation from several sources that he is now in the hands of the police having surrendered himself to the police or the National Police headquarters here in brussels and well get more details from the brussels prosecutor here at this press conference expected to issue a statement but it just seems now that the european arrest warrant process is about to start this could take up to sixty days he will obviously contest that arrest warrant on several grounds and that process judicial process could take anything up to sixty days and in special circumstances even an extra thirty days and this comes at a time of course when hes presented himself as a candidate for the Regional Elections on december the twenty first in in the dritte and weve heard that that is going to be called and that means that possibly if he remains free and he hasnt answered the charges that he could stand as a candidate here from brussels and maintain his campaigning from brussels so well have to wait and see. A court judge investigative judge will be appointed and then he will present his case with his lawyer for coffee to that investigative judge and the whole process will start but thered be a long complicated Legal Process but it could possibly mean to push him on his cabinet ministers will campaign here from brussels at the heart of europe using the safety and security as they said of the European Union headquarters to continue their campaign for catalonia independence ok david so just to remind viewers what it is were looking at were expecting to hear more of what youve been reporting on that prosecutors in brussels are going to make a statement about what theyre going to do about this european arrest warrant for carlos approached him on who has turned him into police so theyre going to cover that force are going to come right back to you in the meantime lets cross over to madrid where john hall is covering the angle of the story from there in china how it is everything thats happening and brussels how is it playing out how is it being received in madrid. Well i think well get a pretty vocal and visual demonstration of peoples reaction to this news later on this evening when theyll be a very large demonstration here in Puerto Del Sol behind me in the center of madrid been plenty of demonstrations here on the cattle an issue after now but theyve tended to be of course for the unity of spain against the independence of catalonia this time people will gather in large numbers as i say in favor of in support of these detained and arrested secessionist politicians i think a lot of span is really finding it quite difficult now to digest the fast moving events of the last several weeks in catalonia not just the divisive moves by secessionists there the declaration of independence and so on but also what has happened in the last week in the aftermath of all that the arrest of detention of these people eight politicians in detention here in madrid at the moment one was let out on bail they face a Court Appearance on thursday mr Police Demand and his associates in belgium looks set to go roughly the same sort of way in a new poll out here in the National Press suggesting that a broad majority of spaniards feel that this is now gone far enough that this is all a bit over the top but as i say were going to see a demonstration of that later a lot of people apparently uncomfortable now with the image of a country that has called a general election an election rather in catalonia for december twenty first invited all parties and all personalities to take part only then to arrest and detain really the bulk of influential secessionist politicians does not want a democratic lets put it that way in the view of many here ok the latest from madrid we still have an ear and eye to brussels as well thank you very much john. So there has been a major shake up in the top ranks of saudi arabias government and ruling family between saturday night and sunday morning eleven saudi princes four sitting have been members and dozens of former ministers were detained the government describes all this is the work of a new Anticorruption Committee which itself was only formed on saturday night so lets talk about some of those who were detained prince i wade been salafi talal that is hes best known as a billionaire investor with major controlling stakes in twitter twenty First Century fox and citi group the most significant internal move involves prince been a della who was removed from his post as head of the National Guard he is the son of the late King Abdullah and was considered a contender for the throne also out is the minister of economy and planning adel bin mohamed a key and abdullah bin Sultan Al Sultan has been ordered to retire as the commander of the saudi navy so the dismissals are widely seen as consolidating the power of the crown Prince Mohammed bin samana also known as m. P. s and solomon was elevated to his position just four months ago displacing an older cousin tashi in a report on these sweeping changes and their implications call it a surprise saturday night shake up saudi state t. V. Reported that eleven princes three current and dozens of former ministers have been detained as part of an inch i corruption probe only hours after the formation of an Investigative Committee was announced its difficult to relate this to corruption since they didnt have enough time to make a prosecution or to make investigations about them if there was something or some information collected previously why did the and with. The case by case in different be this before about the not doing this overnight all these people together which is rather specious. The saudi cabinet overhaul is viewed as a power play by king solomon analysts say its designed to ensure his son and heir to the throne crown Prince Mohammed bin salomon consolidates power and does so among their branch of the royal family hes making this Public Relations stance to get more public support and also a little bit of the way his popularity one of the most high profile figures pushed out is the minister of the National Guard prince metabo been a ball up he was the son of former king of dollar and once thought to be next in line to the throne he was the remaining member of the abdullah family in such a high level position. Also detained is prince will lead bin tell out hes one of the wealthiest men in the world and given his widespread investments is detainment could have an impact on global business. This shake up sends a message theres a new political order but only do we have a new chapter opening up in saudi arabia we have a whole new book a whole new political i submit if you will accept i mean with one exception thats still all done in secrecy its also a reminder that for months after the crown prince was named heir to the throne there can target now to brussels or prosecutors for talking about the ousted catalan president karl has pushed him on seize an investigative judge to executed a european at risk runs. Their investigative judge can decide accordingly refusal to execute the european wrist arresting the people involved releasing in them and the conditions under the date of this afternoon the person saying both will be heard in just a gated church in this building. In this evening this years eve church has to be siding with in twenty four hours which means that a decision has to be made no later than nine seventeen tomorrow morning. Neither one. Of these american even existed. To sponsor so as best we can understand this is the prosecutors this is the Prosecutors Office. And brussels addressing what is happening now and what could happen next with the catalan president pushed him on and four of his colleagues. All turned themselves and it seems as though what hes saying is the next step will have to be decided within the next twenty four hours what the next step will be on that arrest warrant our David Chaytor is also there in the room listening to this is well david what is your understanding of. How this all works out the logistics of it. Yes what we just heard was that. His cabinet ministers hundred themselves in to the. To the interNational Police headquarters and that happened nine seventeen they went into detention at nine seventeen this morning there will be hearing before the investigative judge here in this building and he will hear their case and whether they have this is the arrest warrant and by. Monday morning they will have to decide exactly what course will be taken that judge will decide whether they have legitimate grounds to resist the arrest warrant this of course is the the process is still going on were getting the explanation of the european arrest warrant process right now thats one having to keep quite silent i will get more information to you as soon as we get it right and the chatter will let you get back to listening in to what the Prosecutors Office is saying there and thank you david. Lets return now to the top story weve been covering the Cabinet Reshuffle and arrests in saudi arabia the dismissals are widely seen as consolidating the power of the crown Prince Mohammed bin solomon also known as m. D. s now since he was appointed crown prince in june hama and solomon has flagged broad plans to transform saudi arabias culture and its economy and last month he promised to return the kingdom to what he called a moderate islam and during that announcement he also promised to eradicate what he said were promoters of extremist thoughts changes to womens rights are also being addressed in september saudi arabia is that it would overturn a longstanding rule and allow women to drive starting june next year and the crown prince has also retracted the National Economic transformation outlining a two trillion dollar plan to lessen the countrys dependence on oil revenue by twenty thirty. Koreas a professor of conflict resolution at George Mason University hes joining us live from washington d. C. So a lot of moves in saudi arabia what do you make of what has happened in the last twenty four hours. Or only did detention of thirty plus. Current and former senior officials including eleven princes showcases a very interesting shift in politics. I think it is an implosion within the Political Institution in between two main camps the mainstream camp and the traditional camp versus the immersion more there in this campaign led by corona Prince Mohammed bin solomon so this is a one man shore way of pushing the politics into more the movie versus conservatism it is also a message to the outside world of the so there really is norm that we have be the Traditionalist Society so to me its maybe a mixture of that informs since we witnessed the arrest of these thirty plus individualist hours of the establishment of the on to Corruption Committee biking somehow know about what you know. What about that you committee and then you go out and detain people. Theres not a lot of transparency there is not how do we get from point a to point b. So quickly. Well so far we havent learned anything about the main charges what these guys have in common in terms of exploiting the positions or having dubious deals it is a blanket statement a very broad statement. And i think this is a word that details are more significant than the others at the same time as the New York Times is made to saying this morning this is a special case the first of. Who happens to have some rift with president from a. Couple of. The blogs all to new york and beyond and it seems the tromp. Only go terms therefore there is a suspicion that there is also some sort of. Shown by the crown prince of saudi arabia against a man who has ten times the world of trump thirty two billion dollars so i think there are several issues league ations of corruption and also person arise when they come in and the personal politics kind of seems at odds with what is supposed to be an Anti Corruption agenda before i let you go how does all of this you know this back and forth this game of thrones between these will it really wealthy people what does it actually mean for the the actual average saudi arabia. Well i think this has been an open ended question for a decade now you have the huge gap between the haves and have nots so the financial elite and the political elite now are breaking away introduce two camps as i said earlier at the same time everybody in syria and the rest of the middle east are waiting for some significant ten jubal ways of to see the in with the challenges ahead in front of saudi arabia in terms of the reform plan the twenty thirty vision and also the ongoing war in yemen and they are what they are now with new military threats against syria so its a mix of challenges but it seems that everything now is a ball in down to one man one decision one way and i think this is going to create more challenges for and so the sort of smooth the way for the next generation to take over those who are now side in with the crown prince ok corey thank you very much. Plenty more ahead on the news hour including life after eisel and british fighters expect mercy off the battlefield once they return home plus. Never you. Never waiver and never fall through defense of our people donald trump brings tough talk to japan as the u. S. President takes office twelve day tour of asia. And a twenty five year wait to win the African Champions league ends one Moroccan Club peter has all the details and. Saudi arabias military has shot down a longer range Ballistic Missile over riyadh and a missile was fired from yemen towards the saudi capitals airport with the rebels say theyre behind the attack as mariana han reports. Its not the first time who three rebels have fired long range missiles across the border at saudi arabia but this missile appears to have travelled the furthest hundreds of kilometers deep into saudi heartland and only taken down close to King Khalid International airport on the outskirts of the capital riyadh. The official Saudi News Agency is p. A. Said saudi forces fired a surface to air Patriot Missile to intercept it witnesses reported hearing a loud explosion and seeing fragments falling near the airport the rebels moved quickly to say they were behind the missile attack telling aljazeera they had launched a burka and two h. Missile a scud type missile with a range of more than eight hundred kilometers knocked out of the year. We choose the time and place after collecting information about a target and it was khaled International Airport east of riyadh targeted by a long range volcano Ballistic Missile this is in response to the continued aggression committing daily massacres against the yemeni people. The conflict in yemen pits Houthi Rebels from the north backed by iran and troops loyal to former president Ali Abdullah Saleh against Yemeni Government forces back in two thousand and fourteen the who sees and their allies took control of the yemeni capital sanaa. But the conflict widened early the following year when a Saudi Led Coalition of arab countries state done with airstrikes to back up humans government in two and a half years the Saudi Coalition has launched thousands of a strikes the same a strikes that have been repeatedly criticized by the United Nations for disregarding the number of civilians killed and return who sees and their allies have fired dozens of missiles into saudi territory last week whos the spokesman told aljazeera that whos the fighters would target any country that attacks them. One man out there and let the. Others the target yemen as far as were concerned are fair military target for Ballistic Missiles any country that hits yemen militarily will be targeted. Yemen was already the poorest country in the region before the war nearly two and a half years of fighting is lifted on the brink of collapse a crippled infrastructure abject poverty seven Million People close to starvation and since i prove the worlds worst outbreak of cholera the un says around ten thousand people have been killed and at least forty thousand wounded mostly from saudi laid is strikes this latest missile attack deep into saudi territory will likely escalate this long running and conflict medium hond out to zero yemen civil war began and march two thousand and fifteen and sense then theres been several missiles fired from who the rebels into saudi arabia which is backing the yemeni president. Now the exact launch sites thats not known but its believed most have been fired from the mens work western side a province and october of last year but the rebels were accused of targeting the holy city of mecca the missile was shot down just south of the city but it was the deepest strike into saudi arabia saturdays Missile Launch a year later now suggests with the rebels have technology that can strike beyond the reach of the saudi capital riyadh address craig is a assistant professor at the Defense Studies Department at Kings College london he says a Missile Technology is almost certainly being sent to these from outside yemen. This is a tit for tat kind of balance of terror and whereby the who these have said that if you strike us we will strike back and this is not going towards only against saudi arabia but also against United Arab Emirates potentially and they have over the last two years really expanded their reach and they have really have increasingly more sophisticated Missile Technology which is far beyond the reach of what was initially targeted so when the coalition started to that fifteen when the strike started the scud missile capability of there were these was relatively limited were talking about three hundred kilometers to five hundred kilometers there is a stockpile in yemen of scud missile that has been there for more than twenty years and now they have this capability has been augmented so i think what we see here is definitely some of the Technology Comes from iran but it doesnt come as entire missiles its not like the revolutionary guard of iran is shipping in time missiles into into yemen i think its different parts and then theyre being assembled in yemen and fired off and apart from that i think there are some of the capabilities also coming from north korea but again its certain powers that really or mend the strike range of these misao of these missiles and i think weve seen this development over the last two years where they go get increasingly better a at the range and b. It hitting the targets they want to talk it as a sigh car bomb has struck a Security Headquarters in yemen support city of aden killing several people this explosion happened in the cormacs our neighborhood and no one has claimed responsibility yet for that attack were getting reports that at least one hundred people have been killed and i saw tak near the syrian city of daraa as or thats according to the a. F. P. News agency and the attack comes after fridays announcement that i saw been pushed out of that city which was their last major stronghold both russian backed syrian Government Forces and the u. S. Backed Kurdish Syrian Defense force fighters have been advancing from the opposite opposite banks of the Euphrates River and have been fighting pockets of feisal resistance and some avenge of a task more from gazi on tap on the turkey syria border. According to the media center of the Syrian Democratic forces at least one hundred people have been killed in the province of their resort this is the place that has been recently taken by a Syrian Democratic forces from ice and seem to be going to Democratic Forces are making progress there are women closer towards the the border between syria and iraq and they say as they have taken these areas in one such area in that there are problems between oil fields i see suicide bombers attacked a number of civilians this was a gathering of people who have now recently fled these areas which are now contested and are now trying to reach towards doors in a very as you know force to say they are in control and are safe from i so its not just isolate the of the of forces are fighting there has been sporadic clashes between as the forces and syrian Government Forces which are also trying to retake areas in the euphrates basin area this is on either side of the Euphrates River in syria leading to words the border with iraq according to see in Democratic Forces these attacks have continued and there have been other attacks on civilians fleeing these areas by isis fighters at least five people have been killed and two suicide bomb attacks in iraqs Northern City of kirkuk tension has been high in the area since a rock Central Government from Kurdish Forces following at septembers controversial secession referendum. Ron askew side arabia the u. S. And israel are trying to fuel tension in the region with the sudden resignation of lebanons Prime Minister saad hariri resigned in the saudi capital on saturday and accused iran of sowing strife in the arab world saying holder reports from beirut. Yet again lebanon is on the brink its Prime Minister has resigned a country not immune to political crises and its people know all too well what instability can bring. Weve lived through the civil war and we know a small incident can flare up a situation if its not resolved and there are no mature minds the country will fall apart and that is what were. So i did a how did his announcement came as a shock from the saudi capital riyadh he cited concerns for his life and blamed iran and its lebanese ally hezbollah for meddling in arab affairs many interpreted the move as a declaration by saudi arabia of all out war against hezbollah and it cannot be isolated from the iranian saudi rivalry playing out across the region. The resignation is related to whats going on in the region there are a true main powers vying for influence and lebanon is in the eye of the struggle this is not an internal lebanese matter. Irans ally the Lebanese Party has and its allies had a powerful role in government but hezbollah is not only a Political Party it has an armed wing that has helped keep syrian president Bashar Assads government in power irans influence has expanded across the middle east and saudi arabia the United States and israel have all made it clear they intend to take a more aggressive stance to curb irans power in lebanon now there is a dangerous political vacuum there cant be easily filled lebanon is a parliamentary democracy but in reality it is a consensual democracy the rival political camps that need to agree on a compromise candidate who will be able to form a National Unity government that wont be easy and his supporters have made it clear that they do not intend to share power with hezbollah and appointing a candidate close to hezbollah would risk isolating lebanon. This isnt the first time political life in lebanon has come to an end and it isnt the first time the saudi iranian rivalry is to blame in the past the country has pulled back from the edge the question many ask is if it will be able to do so again. Beirut. Time for weather now with the richard in the latest on some severe storms affecting a mediterranean area well let me interrupt and severe storms in the by the trains.

Up on the immigration minister has told al jazeera that australia must facilitate immediately an offer from new zealand to resettle refugees from its decommissioned prison camp on menace island new zealands Prime Minister met her australian counterpart in sydney on sunday but was told the offer would not be accepted there is a tense standoff on man a silent or six hundred refugees refusing to leave the camp over safety concerns Andrew Thomas reports. The refugees are refusing to leave what was the man i saw in prison about five days without food surviving on. One thing the refugees are putting their hopes on is a deal with new zealand to resettle them more than four years ago then Prime Minister john key offered to take one hundred fifty refugees a year off the route but australias government has never taken up that offer thats New Zealanders have a right to live in australia that deal would always be seen as a back door into australia well new zealands new center left Prime Minister was asked on sunday morning whether that office still stood you of course do not have the second stances that a stranger is operating under and but we also cannot ignore the human fice of what a strain were is dealing with as well said the offer is very genuine and absolutely remains on the table the the offers has been restated we thank you ceiling for my offer were not we are not taking it up at this time for the reasons i explained earlier Malcolm Turnbull said he wants to work through a deal with the United States first to resettle up to twelve hundred fifty and they are refugees there only once that process is complete well they can set up office but that deal with the us is moving painfully slowly dont trump eight states and only fifty or so refugees have been resettled in the u. S. More than a year after that deal with first announced meanwhile the suffering on the road goes on australias government is always say the responsibility for the refugees lies ultimately with happen you denise government so i asked the center of the and whether she considered making it off the record its government instead would you consider making this offer directly for new guinea leaving australia out of the loop because the offer is still under. Consideration by a strike so there is no need to do so but according to happen you gainey that is and the. Immigration minister on sunday told us in a text message using. And resettling hundreds of refugees would be a great relief to Papua New Guinea and thats its a deal australia must facilitates the bottom line is that without.

Time for sport now with peter thank you so much the new York City Marathon is under way amid tight security along the route following the truck attack in manhattan earlier in the week eight people who were killed in that attack on tuesday fifty one thousand runners are taking part in the race with more Uniformed Police and dogs patrolling the forty two point two kilometer course as well. Our correspondent mike hanna joins me live now from close to the finish line in new york mike good of you to be with us to give us an idea of the extra security that has been put in place for this race. Well let me just give you some idea of that the number. Of National Guard soldiers has been tripled along the route the number of Port Authority police doubled as well as state troopers doubled out in the field this along of course with new York City Police officers penn station Grand Central step up in security their rooftops along the route theres been style snipers positioned and also sanitation trucks filled with sand have been parked along the route as what are called lockers this is to prevent any cars from entering the route itself has to run as a race takes place the new York City Police chief carlos gomez says this is the biggest ever security operation mounted for the marathon mark i think of the Boston Marathon and one has to wonder is it really possible to secure an entire marathon route. Well the new York City Police chief appears to be absolutely certain that it is that thing about the sanitation trucks so thats a very important aspect in all of this its part of a tactic thats been developed for other big parades like the thanksgiving parade that will prevent cars from getting in to the route as happened in that attack last tuesday in addition as well youve got the undercover Police Officers that have been deployed all over the city so in terms of actually protecting of the routes of a marathon the police chief is confident that it is completely protected but what one must add as well is that people thronging the route they are going to be keeping their eyes open they are intent it would appear and ive been told by quite a few of them that they will keep their city streets safe during this race and is there a sense of unity of defiance from the new york public and runners would you say. Well you know its very interesting is that the day after that attack took place the Hudson Greenway which is the bike path the runners part from which the attack took place that was packed with people once again its a route that a number of new yorkers. Ding myself used very very regularly and it was very apparent in the days after the attack that nobody was going to stop using it in fact it seemed as the numbers actually increased on that route and speaking to some of the runners today and some of those who are going to be watching this race theres a kind of feeling that the flow of runners that the surge of the spectators is going to wash away on the stage at least the memories of what happened and theres a determination as well to show that those who want to attempt to install the terror in new york will fail in a way this day is about the people of new york the people from more than one hundred fifty countries taking part in the race reclaiming the streets of the city mike hanna in new york thank you for your time barcelona fans displayed a huge catalan flag and banners reading justice ahead of the latest Spanish League game supporters also chance of freedom during the match against severe the club had earlier released a statement saying integrated the rest of catalan politicians this was the you know macys six hundredth game for the club boss of winning two one to go four points clear at the top of the table the issue of catalonia secession is dividing opinion among spanish football fans earlier i spoke to football writer Simon Harrison who says the sport has always been highly politicized in spain. For me personally i mean traveling to the Basque Country recently living in valencia traveling to the cities around the country when youre in the basketry you see a lot more cattle and flags in solidarity in bilbao this week and there was a big big march you know against some of the Emergency Powers that the Spanish Government have taken recently against catalonia so you know you go to the back and she had to cancel a nice deal of support for what for what theyre trying to do that for independence and then you come to places ive lived here and theres a lot of spanish flags around you know this is clubs for example you know last past a month ago they had a spanish like an ashes so it is heavily heavily divided so hopefully there will be some kind of dialogue because the moment its tough to see a resolution all right lets go to the English Premier League now where the first result of sundays games is out so there you have a taught them how to blow the one little victory at home against Crystal Palace who of course one relegation trouble out of fix just coming up today Manchester City against arsenal chelsea and majesty you know thats a really big one in england germany obviously going back to Stamford Bridge to play get his old club and then everton and watford will round up the dates fixtures program whatever they were really looking forward to it.
