Everyone im come on santa maria this is the news from aljazeera age it is vowing action after a bomb attack on a mosque in the Sinai Peninsula killed at least two hundred thirty five people. Those who are of families. In the past. In a political sense are going is that zimbabwes whereas in its first new president in thirty seven years and he is promising sweeping changes. In argentina a Navy Submarine is still missing and hopes for a happy ending are quickly fading. And germanys president is trying to break the political deadlock two months after the countrys elections. And every one of these two hundred thirty five people have been killed in whats been called the deadliest attack in gyptian history gunman bombed and then opened fire at a mosque in the northern sinai town of be it in the latest in a string of attacks by groups and so egypt is launching a military campaign in sinai president. Three days of mourning but also talking about revenge in fact his words what we will respond with brutal force egypt is also securing its borders we have the planned reopening of the rafah crossing into gaza that has been put off until further notice how much energy and as a report. The bomb and gun attack happened during friday prayers at the old a mosque in egypts northern Sinai Peninsula local sources say the attackers planted explosives and then opened fire on worshippers while the sermon was underway. Or. Looks like it was a. I decided. Not really clear motive was i know its my responsibility yet but very possibly. They have targeted to be the last. Night. President im going to put down has c. C. Convened an emergency meeting of Security Officials hasnt had this these tragic event act of terrorism will make us more robust more a strong i want battle against terrorism we cannot be intimidated i will result cannot be dented we will remain more united will win this event the army will take revenge and they will restore order and security with an iron fist in the following day. Egyptian forces have for years battled armed groups in the countrys rugged and remote Sinai Peninsula attacks on Security Forces have been frequent like this car bomb explosion the targeted a Police Station in a lot in two thousand and fifteen really so i know theres been a lot of. Fighting between isis yesterday forces there for years now. And. A lot of. Area as shock sets in and an investigation begins the Egyptian Government has declared three days of mourning. Is that if you now an associate professor of Political Science at Long Island University who told us this attack is just part of an ongoing cycle of violence. Terrorist organizations such as isis or whether its the isis officer that is in egypt or im sorry but it will not this have tried to be strategically attacked those that are seen as in collusion with the state not just the Security Apparatus not just the police and the military but now they are attacking individuals who are seen to be those cooperating with the state and so are seeing happening today is by virtue of attacking a mosque a shrine much like the attacks of the Coptic Church these terrorist groups and of course we they have yet to claim responsibility for them seem to be attacking anyone who is in collusion with the state and so that is leading to a new strategic behavior within this terrorist group which is they will actually attack all civilians and to attack a mosque at the height of a congregants coming together on a friday means that anyone all civilian populations now are part of the game for this terrorist group so these armed groups for example inside of it will knock this and with a good sign i have garnered more strength in this day since to two thousand and three military coup that removed egypts first democratically elected leader and historically when the regime would crack down on for example between two thousand and four and two thousand and six on attacks on tourists it would lead to mass arrests torture and no trials and so you saw the beginning of fomenting of a cycle of violence of state repression targeting these groups through arbitrary arrests leading to them fomenting a cycle of violence where on to other news now enough to thirty seven years zimbabwe has a new leader. It was sworn in on friday in harare his promise to create jobs and to compensate white farmers whose lens was seized but digital so pay tribute to robert mcgovern. I was of course forced to step down for me to miller as i reported. A new and of Holding Democracy is how him is and when our guard was describes his ascent to power even if it took military intervention to end Robert Mugabes presidency tens of thousands of zimbabweans waited for hours to watchman and god was swearing into office an inauguration meant to cement the veneer of a politically driven solution from within the ruling zanu p. F. Party was a bigger nod turned repriced. We can do in the present and huge or you are a nation a different person. When i was promised to implement Economic Reforms that would uplift the lives of millions of zimbabweans left jobless in a battered economy and work toward stimulating local industries as well as compensate the white farmers for the land they lost under previous policies has also vowed to fight corruption tall order given the corruption allegations faced by many members of his ruling party often from politicians we have learned that there is a gulf between what they say and what they actually do this in Government Action is coming from from the same party that elites know from his people two million jobs and really did in those years of need to be created when our god why enjoys from military backing from the same army that in two thousand and eight intervened in elections lost by mcabee ensuring he stayed in power one of the major things that we were going to know is that we are faced with an election and what happens if this new president loses that election would the military be able to hold the elysees of taking the direction say we respect the will of the people when gaga has promised free and Fair Elections next year he still has u. S. Sanctions hanging over his head from his time as serving the gobby regime for what it called axe to undermine democracy but when i got worse is now is the time to reengage with the west for people here president money on guard was certainly made all the right noises talking directly about the needs of everyday zimbabweans hes moved away from traditional political issues instead addressing peoples concerns about his presidency but the worry is that zimbabweans could one day face a crisis of expectation with apparently well intentioned economic and political plans unlikely to work overnight from either miller aljazeera harare zimbabwe or. Many in zimbabwe never even imagined Robert Mugabe would step down one of the chances spoke to some of them in harare about their hopes for the country under president. Nearly everyone you talk to here says they expected Robert Mugabe to die in office not resign after the military intervened they had it been said every day on state t. V. They started to believe it. But now mugabes former right hand man ima said when i got why isnt always a new president after decades of economic stagnation high unemployment and political repression people have High Expectations when we grew up and going to school in the ninetys we had everything i mean agriculture the drive down the roads down the highways it was we are back. Everything happening he went to the Industrial Areas there was smoke coming out now when you go its dilapidated theres nothing going on there so we want to see that again just a very vibrant. Oh when i got close and i say they are confident the rulings on a party will work with opposition parties and the White Community we have been reaching out to the opposition with absolute confidence that an admission is more than general onan on an even keel and they are going to be well known urban our base is also reaching out to the World Community they have been added to the modern economy to recall a New York Times some of them feel marginalized we want to observe that they belong to this country thats good news to those who feel the policies hurt the country economically many people here and the age of forty innocent and not what the new president will say or the right things will be jobs life will improve for the poor people of course is optimistic you know change if it happens will take some time no one knows how long itll take for the economy to recover some people say its too late for them they believe they will always be poor but they hope their children will have a Better Future im good four years old i was born three years after independence but. People are frustrated and impatient they say they are tired of being called a nation of vendors president has made a lot of promises he needs to manage expectations and deliver on some of those promises to convince him that its no longer business as usual. The search for a missing argentine submarine continues even though there is almost no hope that the forty four crew members are still alive and resting it is looking into evidence of a possible explosion near its last known location many family members are angry at the navys handling of this incident. At the navy base in. The hope the prayers the expectation expressed here at the model plata naval base the home of the missing submarine the air race so one turned to anger and despair the families of the forty four crewmembers were told the face of their loved ones. There are still people with hope but i think thats it is time to look for the body they dont want to say which is why we feel empty and but theres nothing more to do and lay them to rest. He loved his job was totally dedicated this was his last voyage im devastated. They want to know why news of an explosion on board shortly after the submarine lost contact on the van with the fifteen took so long to be revealed when they kept in the dark. President has promised a full inquiry and to answer the families and the rest of argentina. Im here to guarantee that we will continue the search especially now that we can count on the help of the International Community and the technology that they have available we hope to find a submarine in the next few days. The navy high command is likely to be removed and despite the frustration and sadness as it did terminations to keep searching. Remember until we have Firm Evidence of where the submarine is we cannot reach any conclusions believe nothing to chance theres a strong force reaching the remaining uncovered area that operation involves ships aircraft and undersea rescue equipment from more than ten countries often in Severe Weather conditions the families more in argentina is asking what went wrong who was responsible and what should happen now but with the sun one possibly several hundred meters at the bottom of the South Atlantic Ocean those questions may never be satisfactorily answered and argentina must assess his relationship with his navy as it comes to terms with one of its worst tragedies in recent years that. Model blatter germanys president is holding talks with Party Leaders to end a political deadlock on forming a new Coalition Government social democrats that are marking schultz had ruled out taking part in another government headed by chance lying of a goal he previously insisted his party should be going into opposition but he now says Party Members will get a vote on any Coalition Deal dominic kane with more now from berlin. For the past two months germanys social democrats have been licking their wounds after their worst electoral performance in modern german democratic history the watchword has been opposition their leader martin shields who presided over that worst ever defeat but said opposition was what he has paid a needs to look its wounds to find new policies and to reconnect with the electorate but the collapse of the socalled Jamaica Coalition talks has refocused peoples attention on the s. Payday and a chorus of voices a growing chorus of voices have said to mr schultz well perhaps now is the time to rethink that refusal to contemplate coalition with Angela Merkel and he seems to have listened. In the eight hours was spent talking with discussed openly the contribution the s. P. D. Can make to coalition whatever form that may take. The irony of the situation is that the grand coalition mr schultz has been so resistant to is still governing germany in a cant say capacity the question for him the question for angle americal now is can they find a form of agreement that can take germany forward because many leaders in europe worry about the vacuum of leadership that a continued protracted lack of Coalition Talks might bring and of course the doomsday scenario at the back of everyones minds is if they cant find agreement well they cant really be a general election until next april and so everyone is very keen to avoid that particular dilemma heres whats coming up on this news hour. Im scott either in chin state myanmar just over one hundred twenty years ago an American Baptist missionary planted the seeds of christianity here and like other religious minorities in this country they have faced persecution in this buddhist majority country their story coming up.

Since china has adopted its second child policy last year the man for child care has grown the country has limited parents to have only one son or daughter for forty years. But Research Shows that more than half of chinese parents choose not to have a second child because of the lack of proper childcare and soon are you going to these are not just incidence.

Smoking is highly addictive these messages will air in primetime for one year on major u. S. Television networks along with adverts in fifty newspapers. Radio and t. V. Ads promoting cigarettes were banned in one nine hundred seventy but the new adverts should have added years ago they were ordered in two thousand and six after a big tobacco was found to have misrepresented and deceived the American Public about the effects of smoking by a federal judge they brought appeal after appeal after appeal and contesting every issue they could think of to try to delay the time when they would actually have to be forced to tell the truth to the American People campaign as a skeptical as to the difference these ads will make partly because the media has changed so much over the last decade most us smokers begin as teenagers but now less than five percent of network t. V. Viewers are under twenty five also the trumpet ministration is filled with those who once worked for or received large sums from big tobacco infamously Vice President mike penns once wrote an editorial that accepted the dangers of smoking yet asserted time for a quick reality check despite the hysteria from the Political Class and the media smoking doesnt kill so this is a general no francisco one successfully argued in court against printing the telephone number for a service to help smokers quit on cigarette packets on behalf of Tobacco Company r. J. Reynolds president trumps nominee to oversee chemical safety at the Environmental Protection agency took money from big tobacco to promote research that downplayed the effects of Secondhand Smoke we cannot afford to have to back up policy being being made by the lawyers for the Tobacco Industry. The proportion of u. S. Adults who smoke is now fifteen percent it was forty two percent in the sixtys however due to population growth that still represents thirty six and a half Million People in addition in low income areas the proportion of smokers can reach thirty seven percent cigarette taxes remain low in many states political donations from big tobacco plentiful which helps explain why big tobacco is still views the u. S. As a Growth Market the Worlds Largest tobacco profit pool outside of china in the words of one cigarette executive she average hansie aljazeera has matthew minds now president of tobacco free kids who told us the ads are a step in the right direction they contain information that many people dont know including the fact that Tobacco Companies have design and continue design their cigarettes consciously with enough nicotine to make them it addictive theyll have their own their full effect only if others amplify them thats why stories like when youre running are so important whats critically important for the everybody to understand is that while this decision was first made eleven years ago the Tobacco Companies havent changed their behavior and they need to continue to warn the public about the out the facts of smoking is no less today than it was ten years ago which is critically important for everybody understand this these ads are a sharp reminder that the Tobacco Companies havent changed their wrongful behavior thats why they continue to fight these and dirt is meant even tell now out the last appeal shockingly was just over whether or not the ads would begin with the phrase heres the truth the Tobacco Industry still doesnt want the public to know the truth. The capital of honduras is tightening security ahead of sundays president ial election the incumbent leader. Is campaigning on Public Security saying hes made the safe it was one of the highest murder rates in the world his first turn so a crackdown on violent gangs well the government says progress has been made to tackle violence but many are not convinced. Reports on that. Young innocent often the victims of Gang Violence for now with extra Security Forces deployed to this neighborhood children can play without watching their backs. On average more than three hundred people male and young are every month this country is not formally a war zone but for years it has been the worlds murder leader but that isnt to be changing. We implemented the Community Police model where we get closer to people talk to them when their trust they call us to give us information about criminals so we can capture them. Violent homicides are reported to have fallen by just over twenty percent in the last year the violence observatory responsible for monitoring violent deaths says theres a number of reasons why among them the dismantling of drug cartels and increasing the Security Budget and reform of the police force the government says one of the reasons theres been a fall in the number of violent deaths its because of army and Police Patrols like this one in some of the most dangerous neighborhoods in the country. But here on the outskirts of some the most dangerous city in the country says she lives in fear and doesnt believe the governments claims of success. Is always kidnappings violent killings its difficult for us to talk about this there are repercussions of violence hasnt reduced although the numbers are down critics say. Policing remains sporadic and people still live in fear and. Its costly to keep troops permanently the areas are very large and many are still controlled by criminals. And the targeted killings continue in recent days the bodies of three political activists were found but government supporters say improvement needs to be measured over the long term. The murder rate is still six times larger than the world average the situation is Still Critical but the policies must be sustainable to show the population that this is the way to repress crime. For now a signal is being sent to the gangs that change is happening in the us and that children have a right to play in peace but yes im just im just some. Us eleven people have been killed in a fire at a hotel in georgia twenty one others were treated in hospital at least one hundred firefighters had to be sent to tackle that places in the black city result city of but to me european leaders have criticised russia or at a summit of the e. U. And six former soviet states the british Prime Minister tourism a said russia was a hostile state threatening birth growth in Eastern Europe and the e. U. As president donald tusk condemned what he said was russian aggression in Eastern Ukraine the un has called for the forced sorry has called the forced removal of refugees from a prison camp on man a silent shocking inexcusable police in pompano guinea cleared their remaining three hundred twenty eight men from the former australian run site on friday the camp had been closed three weeks ago but many refugees refused to go fearing they would be attacked Andrew Thomas sent us this report from an assignment. On thursday about fifty men were removed on friday the remaining three hundred twenty eight were evicted in some cases by force mobile phone footage shot by refugees appears to show police and Papua New Guinea and immigration officers hitting them with metal bars buses took the men to their new accommodation in the nearby town accommodation australias government says is ready but refugees say has no power security guards wont let cameras near the facility the refugees can come out and some showed us the injuries they say they sustained in the eviction theyre probably sent him a version of offering again it just me to me and drove me over the. Ground and needs me to mean all of my body australias immigration minister said on friday he knew of only three very minor injuries we saw more. I was inside the Detention Center and i was beaten with wooden iron bars. Two years ago al jazeera filmed on manna silent when almost all the refugees were still locked up the closest we got to an interview with one then was over the phone while sitting near their prison in a boat we argue. The mouse. That refugee is now out of that prison but does not feel free. When you are free you have free living you can have a job you cannot you know make a loser see if you can have a life i am still here for years and i have. Still in the same situation some refugees say they fear being attacked in the local town some have been but the main reason they refused to leave the prison was as a protest to draw attention to australias mistreatment of them australias Prime Minister in his countrys Capital Canberra said he was glad the protest was over complying with the lawful directions of the pay injury authorities and moving to the alternative facilities available to them and that as a short. That is precisely what you should do if youre in a foreign country you should comply with the laws of that other country for refugees Papua New Guinea could be home for many years to come the absolute closure of the refugee prison and the eviction of all the remaining men inside wont make much practical difference to the refugees lives or their futures but for australias government this is a significant moment its the clearest sign yet that they are transferring responsibility for those refugees from canberra to pack when you get in Andrew Thomas al jazeera. In Papua New Guinea. The u. S. Says its deeply concerned at the release of a pakistani man accused of planning the two thousand and eight more my attacks have made was freed after a Pakistani Court rejected the governments plea to extend his detention by three months saeed who is founder of the banned group.
