Watching the news live from our headquarters here in doha coming up in the next sixty minutes the army takes control in zimbabwe military commanders to know its a coup they say the president Robert Mugabe is safe. An act of aggression lebanons president says nothing justifies the detention of the Prime Minister sites in saudi arabia. Also this just the u. S. Secretary of state visits me in mali to condemn the crackdown against rango muslims but he stopped short of calling for sanctions. And im sorry if will have all the days more including demarcus qualify for the football world power for the time. Her history of a rash the republic of ireland by one in their play on. A fast moving top story for you here on the news our Army Commanders in zimbabwe well theyve seized control of the country but they deny their takeover is a coup in an address on state t. V. An Army Spokesman said criminals around the president Robert Mugabe were being targeted military commanders say he and his family are safe but its not known where they are soldiers are patrolling the streets of the capital harare and roads to government buildings are blocked the military supporters appraising with the head of the War Veterans Group is calling a bloodless correction. Well have extensive coverage of the story in the coming program tanya page is watching events for us out of johannesburg in south africa first lets take you to the heart of the story harare and our correspondents how wrote how whats the latest from the streets there. Well its calm but tense the general general general made an arsonist few hours ago and since then more and more people are coming into the city center but ari is still not its usual busy self other cities and towns are also quiet some obvious just watching these dramatic events unfold wondering what it means for the future of this country. And im easy calm in harare this after confusing scenes on the streets of zimbabwe with a night of unrest as military vehicles rolled in there were also reports that soldiers were seen loading ammunition these developments followed a warning on monday that the military would step in if the sacking of candidates they favor within the ruling party didnt stop a statement was read by soldiers on state radio this is not a military takeover and things will return to normalcy. And his family. And sound and the security. We are only targeting criminals are around him. Committing crimes that are causing social and economic suffering in the country in order to bring them to justice but this is sparked fear of a military coup even now with all the confusion we do know that the army in sirte is so this way and running the country and telling the people what to what to do what to believe and hundley in the news taking over their broadcast those are very unusual in other countries we call those who. Zimbabwe army chief constantino i want earlier this week the military could step in if party pages didnt stop but she was quickly accused of treasonable conduct by the zanu p. F. In a statement he was reacting to the firing of the Vice President in a seminar the week before when i got what had close ties to the military and was revered first revolutionary work in fighting for the countrys independence a fight that also boid president mugabe to power in one nine hundred eighty when i got was removal apparently followed a series of disputes with the first lady grace mugabe her leadership and patience to succeed our ninety three year old husband had triggered infighting within her party she is popular with his army of youth faction dubbed the g forty but her ascension contradicts an earlier promise mugabe had made saying only those who fought in zimbabwes liberation can preside over zimbabwe being fifty two grace is not a war veteran and like amos and i got one nor the Army Generals who threatened to intervene. There firstly. I would like to govern after her husband but i dont know anything that says that that is illegal and the military moving clearly to start. Like a good move to me one of the first announced casualties is the finance minister who the army stated they had detained despite the military emphasizing the president and his wife are safe these look like trouble times ahead. Were looking at a live shot of iraq looks very quiet very calm there you get the feeling that zimbabweans feel this is about them or is this just a battle that were standing by and watching being for amongst the elite of the country. There is very much a feeling that this is a fight between the top dogs two factions when the rulings on if your party won by grace mugabi the first lady and the other by. A Vice President who was fired last week all eyes also on the international community. Be inquired south africa has spoken out and theyre concerned about it but people are watching to see how the other countries react are they going to condemn what has happened are they going to quietly accept it and then what happens after that so a lot of scenarios at play right now but the key thing people are waiting to hear from the army is theyre saying this is not a coup so this is not a coup does that mean they will release president got me at some point or you were allowed to be seen in public at some point things take another dramatic turn so confusion on the ground but the army insists its not a coup. The president of the country the head of state and commander in chief lots of speculation of course lets just separate what we know from what we dont know and crucially i guess as well when or if well see Robert Mugabe and mrs mcgovern. There was meant to be a solidarity rally on saturday at our International Conference and it was meant to be youth rally and the president s wife were meant to attend we dont know if that is going to happen some people are saying maybe theyll be some kind of Statement Issued on state t. V. At some point again no one really knows i think for now as long as the top officials remain quiet there will be a lot of speculation before most and bargains on the ground the poor the suffering the ones you dont want to see violence are glad for now that its calm its tense but at least its current we just hope the next few hours the next few days the next few months play out while in that theres no violence on the streets stay close in the meantime many thanks tanya page joins us live from johannesburg we are getting comments from the South African government time you just get us right up to date what are they saying. Yes well president jacob zuma issued a statement a short while ago and not only in his position as president of south africa but also as the current chair of the regional body the Southern AfricanDevelopment Community or sadeq hes calling for. Restraint by all parties involved says hes watching on with great concern as what is at what is happening just across the border saying that he would hope that this does not lead to an unconstitutional change of government because he said that would be contrary to not only setback but the african unions position and calling for what he described as an amicable resolution to again i quote a political impasse and calling on urging really the Defense Force in zimbabwe to act with restraint and calm and to ensure peace and security so that the statement coming from president jacob zuma of course lots of people also watching on and hoping that things stay calm in harare and the the wider country because there are many zimbabweans in south africa if Robert Mugabe is days away from perhaps needing a bolt hole he has got well established connections in the far east we know this as a fact but might find sanctuary in africa in south africa perhaps. All look at is quite possible but i dont think youd get any sort of comment on that from the South African government and if we look at what has happened quite recently to the Vice President in this in the gun was he was feared to be on his way to south africa but he has apparently been in china the entire time and when that may not have been in south africa at all its a very difficult sticky situation that south africa finds itself in if that were to eventually where someone from high up in government mugabe himself or some other high placed cabinet minister was seeking sort of protection in south africa because that puts south africa in as i see it a pretty difficult situation despite as how i was mentioning there are some pretty around. Criticism of Robert Mugabes long tenure as president since nine hundred eighty the only leader of an independence and bar where people there have non south africa has never been that critical of the country very much sticking by the line that hes an elected president wouldnt want to see any kind of intervention from outside the regional from other african countries so that is a pretty tricky spot south africa would be placed in if somebody was seeking the sort of asylum or refuge here thanks tony talk to later. Well staying with that story much of the tension and the uncertainty in zimbabwe comes as a result of the Division Within president mugabes ruling zanu p. F. Party now draws most of its power from the countrys struggle for independence two main factions within zanu p. F. Vying for succession the low cost group made up of supporters of the Vice President. Those who backed greece mugabe will then known as g forty last week president mugabe sacked. Many you saw the movers clearing the pass for grace mugabi to take over and succeed her husband on monday the head of zimbabwes Defense Forces warned the army would step in to end purges within the party in response. To you swing accused general Constantino Chiwenga of treasonable conduct david moore is professor of Development Studies at the university of job are joining us now david moore what do you think is really going on here. But thanks for calling me. Well i think the look asked faction as you put it has one look asked being french for. An emerson man to god were being called the crocodile for many years. The g forty tried to get him out and they failed to when they came in with his and hes well known as a protege very close to middle gaga came in with the press statement on monday saying we want to protect the president from the infiltrators from the counter revolutionaries from those who are doing the project so this is what makes it an interesting cooed its an inside the party crude. The president has not been deposed. Its its people are being arrested. Forty people are being arrested theyre looking for Jonathan Moyo the famous information guru. Whos actually the intellectual gravitas behind the g for. But that never had the army in their hands the police is another question i think the Police Commissioner was part of. The public look at looking to arrest him ive seen some pictures of police sitting on the ground well people are looking over them that could get a bit a bit rough. Relatively peaceful so far as an elite affair is above when people have had lots of experience of it. Except for the poor people and in the eightys who were massacred in their thousands heres the thing if mr mugabe hasnt been deposed can we say he hasnt been deposed yet because presumably hes someplace under lock and key with all with his wife grace mugabe. Yes nobody knows if the couple is still a couple. Think he will not be deposed i think the plan will be. Speech on monday night to guarantee that the Extraordinary Congress which is set up for the end of december this year instead of next year in other words before the election july next year. Which was planned by g. Forty two to have. The first Vice President. And Vice President and Vice President that would have to. Be president. Because i dont think the g forty really thought grace was up to it but they had to have her in mind now that we dont know whats happening to grace i think we will see the way the wind is blowing hes very very good at keeping his finger to the winds of these internet scene conflicts and i think also that the regional actors that are important in this case would have been consulting with more than gaga i dont think he was in china i think south africa they would have been consulted. Very carefully because a coup against the state would not be allowed this is a coup against the president of the party of course the party of the state in zimbabwe are very very closely intertwined but technically you could say that this is against the president the people who was speaking last night general oil was saying let parliament go ahead there are rules in the constitution that can allow parliament to settle this issue if that could be done a new president. It could be a very unique sort of coup. Compelling times david moore professor of Development Studies in chipper good to talk to david again thanks very much well keep right across all develops of course here on aljazeera as to whats happening and pretty much in real time as it happens out of zimbabwe we move on to another one of our top stories lebanons president says nothing justifies the Prime Minister saeed hariri being detained in saudi Arabia Michel Aoun says act of aggression hariri suddenly announced his resignation during a visit to the saudi capital last week hes promising to return home soon saudi leaders have said they fear for his safety if he does hes in a harder joins us live now from beirut zena what does this mean. Well lebanon for sure is stepping up the pressure on saudi arabia Strong Language strong words from the president saying that this is an act of aggression saudi arabia has violated the conventions the president making it very very clear that he believes saddam had either resigned Prime Minister along with his family are being detained in saudi arabia they are being held in one way or another hostage is now lebanon has launched a Diplomatic Campaign to try to secure his release the president has said in recent days that he believes the saddle had it is under house arrest he is not speaking freely hes not moving freely and he sent the foreign minister to paris late yesterday where he met the french president the french president mediating in this crisis sending his foreign minister to saudi arabia later today it is still not clear whether or not saddle how do you will return he did say in his first Public Comments on sunday that hes coming in a few days yesterday he tweeted saying hes also coming in a few days but a very confusing picture and people in lebanon really do not believe that hes coming back and if he does here if he does return without his family then hes still a political hostage because his family will be used some sort of like a pressure card against him now these latest developments in i mean in effect are they confirm what everyones been speculating about because everyones been speculating well hes being held against his will hes being held hostage his wife and his children theyve lived in riyadh for the past what five or six years and if if were talking about someone being held against their will chances are theyre being held against their will. Well yes this is the feeling in lebanon the majority feels this way even his own supporters are saying then why doesnt he just come back he appeared in public a made Public Comment on his local television station on sunday but people were not convinced he looks stressed he wasnt very clear at one point he was even going to cry i mean people were saying this man was not speaking freely he was not as confrontational as he was during his resignation speech and that resignation speech also was very sudden it was a shock nobody expected it from him everything was going well he was in one way or another he had this an easy partnership with hezbollah in the government and this is what many believe saudi arabia was angry about that he was not being confrontational enough with hezbollah and they forced him to resign so this is the feeling in lebanon of course saddam had to be saying that he is a free man but like i mentioned nobody mean very few people believe that in lebanon zain thank you. Plenty more still to come on the news hour for you including the stories supporting cata turkeys president flies in as the long long gulf crisis drags on. Too scared to return home victims of the earthquake in iran and iraq struggle to recover. And support a big performance from the man. Action from the n. B. A. Coming up with farai in about thirty minutes time. Ok another developing story for you Rex Tillerson the u. S. Secretary of state has called for a quote credible and impartial investigation into the crisis hes met the de facto leader Aung San Suu Kyi in the meanwhile capital Naypyidaw Tillerson wants those who have committed crimes to be held accountable he described the scenes of what happened to the right at the hands of the me and Security Forces as quote just horrific. Then mark response to this crisis is a critic with herman in the success of the transition to a more Democratic Society he says and democracy. Through this movie wall and marginalized populations it is the responsibility of a government and of your forces to protect and respect human rights of all persons within its borders to hold him a little. Scot hydel is in the capital napier to scott white and to talk about ethnic cleansing given what the u. N. Says about ethnic cleansing yet he said this in this press conference that took place just about an hour ago peter and in that he said that the United States is still looking at that terminology if theyre going to in fact use that terminology its interesting that we heard that sound bite from him you know he said that they still the United States still stands behind me on mars transition to a full democracy but he said as we just heard that there are concerns the United States has and theyve said this over the last several weeks several months about how the situation has been handled in rick i and its interesting because the military had an internal investigation and they cleared all the military officers of any wrongdoing in work on state he says there needs to be a impartial and deep investigation as to what happened out there in the recount state and what prompted over six hundred thousand range across the border into bangladesh he says the United States wants a more impartial and clear investigation to take place and he said that could tie to the possible direct sanctions down the line peter scott you get the feeling that in effect hes lowering the bar of expectation when it comes to what the world was expecting from sun suchi going back to when this crisis kicked off. Yeah and its interesting peter when you look at that yes definitely because hes saying that were still United States is still committed to this transition of democracy what i think hes also doing absolutely that lowering the bar a little bit but also expectations from what she can actually do in this country everything that took place in recalling states is not under her control the military still al parades independently thats theyre talking about the transition to full democracy the military in this country still wields major power and is not accountable or doesnt have to tell the civilian government which she leads and city what theyre doing and why theyre doing it so when it comes to criticizing her and what shes been doing they have been critical and you know he didnt go as far as to say that you know you need to do more but in certain ways he has but its more focused on the military and what he said and we go back to that part about sanctions he said generally economic sanctions broad economic sanctions for against myanmar is not feasible at this stage but what might be feasible once theres intelligence once theres evidence of who actually carried out these atrocities in response they then targeted sanctions could be levied against them and that means possibly members of the the top echelons of the military here so its kind of a fine line that he has to tread because yes santucci does deserve because shes a de facto leader of this nation deserves criticism because of whats been happening in Rakhine State but then again she doesnt have that much control over it its the military that does and thats why secretary tilson also had a meeting with the commander in chief of myanmars military services here today in a few doors thanks scott. Turkeys president is in doha for talks with the emir of cats. Has been a big supporter of count us in june when for arab countries cut ties and imposed a blockade on tuesday the a me is that the saudi bloc had no desire to end the Crisis Council is looking for sustainable ways to meet its needs lets bring in our senior political analyst marwan bashar whats the message not between these two countries but across the border going west. Its a bit of what we heard yesterday when the emir of qatar addressed his Consultative Council and his people got that hes when he said that there is no solution in sight. That for the time being were going to have to act as if there is no solution with our neighbors because the four decision countries are not about to accept a solution or a compromise and then. I think both qatar and turkey are taking their bilateral relations a whole new strategic level its clear now that qatar needs solid relations with the outside world notably turkey and its also clear for the turks because of the cooling of their relations with a number of countries especially western countries that they need to forge big important relations in the east and i think qatar is becoming one of them you get the feeling that this is just about to be an opinion the rhetoric here given the very kind of clear focus of what mr erdogan was saying two or three days ago and who he was saying it to given all the changes in riyadh over the past four weeks well look theres no doubt that the turkish president regardless of his situation within turkey but when it comes to Foreign Policy when it comes to syria when it comes to his relations with the west and and the turkeys attempt at dealing with the fiji questions and so on so forth and the one feels that turkey is being victimized that the turkey is being mistreated by its western allies and hence he has turned his back to the west and embraced russia and hence he feels angry that turkey is paying a huge price for crisis is around it and its not being rewarded for all the efforts its making on the question of syria and others all in all and as i put it bluntly yesterday or the day before yesterday in so many ways western leaders now view the turkish president as brash and rash. He sees western leaders as backstabbing cowards because they want stickin into the serious issue until it became quiet and then it was too late and they are not making enough effort to resolve the syrian issue they speak about no military solutions but look at the massacre yesterday and it wasnt against leisel the military solutions continuance in syria and yet the russians the americans come out with a communique saying there is no military solution in syria and hence hes angry that way the price i mean there may be too pricey a one the actual price the dollar sign because when the g. C. C. Crisis kicked off everyone was saying look cattles got roughly five hundred thirty billion in the bank in cash people are saying the g. C. C. Crisis has cost cattle Something Like thirty thirty five billion but theres this whole question of sustainability is the actual price tag the price tag but theres also the geo political price tag is what were seeing within the g. C. C. Now the new normality is this what its going to be i think thats what we thats the impression we got from the emir of qatar yesterday and thats the impression weve got from the besieging countries that there is no solution in sight and hence each country is going to try to find its own solutions and yes it has been a it has been on qatar and got those economy and again they made of course i said not only there is dwindling oil prices the last couple years now its above sixty you know a battle but but certainly the decision countries that change in the economic priorities within the country has all hampered to some degree the got an economy but its still one of the richest economies in the world per citizen and now theyre trying to secure the water under food securities they change the aerial as well as the sea lanes and theyre trying to forge new relations with pakistan with bangladesh with turkey and so on so forth so all in all that is opening up to relationships but here a point of comparison look for example at saudi arabia at this point in time not. First of all these crisis is that its over reaching us all so forth but so would it pakistani relations are not good at all so would the iranian relations are of course terrible so do turkish relations are very very very cold so all in all saudi arabia is not doing better than its neighbors or better than got over there and i mean of kuwait hasnt said very much about this over the past three or four weeks and he was the go to you can sort this person for so long moment we have to leave it there because were going to crash through the headlines in about three minutes if we dont many things thank you people in iran are afraid of returning home four days after a powerful earthquake killed more than four hundred people on sunday the earthquake measured seven point three it injured almost eight thousand people and left tens of thousands homeless in the mountainous area of common shop province that borders iraq rescuers say this search operation is coming to an end and hopes of finding more survivors are fading in and console is that close to the quakes epicenter in Northern Iraq sinan just get us right up to speed whats the latest information you have for us. Yes we are in the main the kurdistan native town and some a minute near by iran border here the damages are not as heavy as in iran and the casualty numbers are not that high but the damages are actually important because people are not able to get in they are. In there because their homes are badly damaged and the risk is actually with the carbon behind them which is right behind them. And there are many cracks in the in the in their band behind them especially up or construction part of that where we spoke to the general director of the dam he said that there is no leakage for now with the dam but there are there have been years have been here and who have been making assessments about the possible risks that these cracks could. Creates a for the surrounding if the reports say is that its safe people are going to be are going to take a breath and will get in their homes but if the report says the cracks can cause a flood then all the surrounding villages here will be evacuated and this area that im standing right now campbell left on the water pour the there been the dam is the riskiest part here which actually provides water to more than two Million People for drinking every called sewer and industrial use it thanks very much.

It appears the fight against terrorism has the upper hand the twenty seventeen global terrorism index shows the number of terror related deaths a day for a second year in a row the institute for economics and peace found a drop of twenty two percent globally in twenty sixteen compared to a peak in twenty fourteen syria pakistan afghanistan and nigeria four of the five worst affected countries recorded thirty three percent fewer deaths iraq was the only one of those five nations to show an increase this is being blamed on eyesores Desperate Measures as i salute his territory fifty percent more deaths retributive to the armed group than in twenty fifteen however the trend so far this year is that incidents are down with the report heralding a turning point in the fight. Of his lip is the director of research at the institute for economics and peace he joins us now from london Daniel Hislop whats new about this report i mean terrorism quote we know what that is do we not were out of pointing out that the really big finding from this is report is a positive one twenty two percent drop is significant and this is notable because weve seen ten years of increases this is a big positive change and were really seeing the change in the places where the great majority of terrorism actually is a caring why was there a decrease. It was primarily a decrease because of really two factors one. Which we need to remember only two years ago was the most deadly terrorist group in the world that saw an eighty percent drop in the number of tests that it committed in twenty sixteen really largely because of this excess of the Multinational Joint task force and the Coalition Partners to fight the group its also been splintered so its not as integrated as it was before so that was a very big change of course the other big changes is that diminishment of i still in syria there were more deaths in iraq but i suspect that when we move forward to twenty seventeen we will see that the group as its on the cusp of military defeat will commit fewer deaths in this calendar year there was a perception though a few years back that syria iraq and i guess before that afghanistan those countries were kind of a breeding ground for high school and the likes of is is that a problem for the people who are fighting groups like isis because theyve got to fight the perception say if youre an american you think everyone whos brown and gets off a plane wants to kill you because thats definitely what some republicans believe or fighting the reality which is that some of these groups say very tech savvy. I think when you look at the reasons for the levels of terrorism that were saying youve really got to go to the underlying drivers which are the grievances that give rise to terrorist activity and i think in the case of eisel a lot of the extreme tactics were very successful in recruiting a large number of people but the group could not have had this excessive had in capturing territory if it didnt have marginalized sunni populations that it could essentially get support from and so when were looking at terrorism we need to remind remind ourselves that its the underlying grievances that are the problem and what the report shows is that if you go through back to nineteen seventy and look at all the terrorist attacks that have occurred since nineteen seventy we know that i must not a nine percent of them have occurred in the context of a preexisting conflict or with human rights abuses so if we want to address terrorism at its core thats really where we need to focus dont know his lip many thanks for. The. Big protest underway in the nigerian city of lagos against the eviction of thousands of people from Waterfront CommunityRights Groups say the police have used bulldozers and set homes on fire to force people out they say more than thirty thousand people have been evicted over the past year and eleven have died in the process of militarist joins us live now from lagos how would you sum up for us the atmosphere surrounding whats going on there. Course desperation to remember two thousand. Communities in the last one was a point guard. But they still havent been returned home now why do you want to live there want to force the hands of the legal State Government to tonight now that you know were. Going to. Judge richard was illegal and unconstitutional the State Government. And weve lost the satellite there as you want out of the worked out with our committee they will go back to if we can in the next hour or so say the children says extreme hunger and disease are killing one hundred thirty yemeni children every day its warning that at least fifty thousand children could die this year if the saudi led blockade of yemen continues on monday saudi arabia announced it will start reopening some yemeni ports and airports it had closed them after hoofy rebels fired a missile on the saudi capital riyadh last week but yemen is denying reports of the countrys main port has been reopened. Theres no truth to the news that any ships were given permission to enter the port of a data situation is still the same nothing is arrived at the pole or even the ships that were hasta leave when the Saudi Led Coalition announced the closure of the i have not yet returned. Ok lets take you back to join us live from lagos just telling us about what the atmosphere was like there at that protest as they continue to bulldoze that poor area im interested to know i mean these people that are being relocated being taken to areas that. And what are the chances that they actually get that compensation. Well basically completely been waiting for compensation for one year now that doesnt come by the court order that they have to. Also happen the court order that the government should respect this decision. Government has launched a counter in an open court saying that its a. Demolition exercise but these people hundreds of them gathered today to march on the office of the governor to force the hands of the government to act swiftly. And raised in communities they want justice and they want to justice now i think. Hes trying to say that. Such a. Process. They do night and they said. That they feel that the government has a hand and the demolition exercise so. That the government is delaying and that. Time by the events of the last one year so they want action now and they are asking the court. To step in to expedite the action. Displaced by the. And seven thousand of them actually. Desperate they dont have anywhere to call home and one of them told me that he was sleeping in a boat such a number and to be just. As you know shelter temporarily because communities in sixteen different communities in lagos state. So theyre trying to go to court again but given how the Court Decision went the first time around do they think that it will go against them the second time around. Its difficult to say at the moment the government insisted. Its when the case came up before the court there was this feeling that the government was involved in the process now that its saying it went back and restarted the case and its really presenting its. Case. And this is not the first or Second Community why these are just have taken place we remember a few years ago such an individual. Just invaded the. Community every. Some. People but. Two family members and those are the ones involved in the. Building but people affected by the pictures are saying we dont we see the agents and the hands of government to hold these thanks very much.
