Mexican side of the curve on the meeting points where people smugglers squeeze 50 to 70 people into trucks. You cant sit down because youre squashed together my son started crying because people fell on top of him they covered it up it was tough. They set off. Towards mexico crossing this wide open border on the way in 3 days of going to and fro we were never asked for documents different smuggling groups take over the route as it goes into the territory moving the migrants from safe house to safe house its lucrative but its getting harder after pressure from President Trump its because governments tighten security along the border we quote to mother those who. Went to war and now theres not a lot of movement they still go but its gone down 50 percent its more discreet. But it is still happening we staked out the caravan in a roadside field a local contact told us hed seen the lorries loading up shortly after we saw them heading through followed by several s. U. V. S the caravans of going coast that go in front of increased its clear that weve been so hidden just wait for a chance to see it we got the tip off and we just saw the long line of trucks good post migrants told us the smugglers usually let them out just before the us border they can cross and ask for asylum daniel never made it that far the convoy he was traveling in got shot up early on his uncle was killed but with nothing at home and from now away north hes already saving to go again. And weve got john holman with us now in mexico city because john a bit of political reaction to that after you spoke to the president or got a question to him. Exactly that and let me just set the scene if you right now this is extremely delicate between the United States and mexico the United States has basically given mexico month and a half to curb the amount of migrants from Central American countries like honduras el salvador guatemala coming through the country a mets kerry says yes were going to be able to do that in a month and a half so you dont take any further action against us this is a very delicate time for a report like our one to be coming out and i asked president Lopez Obrador and his Morning Press Conference basically how this smuggling operation large scale smuggling operation could have been going for more than a year without the authorities even realizing that something was happening and if he or his government even knew about it this was his response they are to use we have identified 68. 00 Border Crossing points and in all of them there is going to be vigilance and thats what i can tell you its a plan to have control on the border. So a sort of art so that wasnt quite specific about what he was going to do about this particular smuggling operation or if he knew about it but saying that at least security was going to be increased in some 768. 00 Border Crossing points i also asked him about another issue here which is corruption of cool start smuggling ring and locals told us about this would have to be paying off officials from migration of thirtys and perhaps police along the way but to get people all the way from the guatemalan border up to the u. S. Border and i asked him if he was going to look at corruption in the Migration Institute and try and sort of weed that out and what he said to me was that already they fired 500 people in the migration in situ and now they dont have enough people to really take care of all of those different crossing points because its taking time to replace them so he said this is something that were working on and once we get up to speed we will be able to deal with all those crossing places between whats a mile or a mexico mexicos southern border all right great to get that update from you thank you John Heilemann of the u. N. Security councils been holding a meeting on its peacekeeping force in darfur the u. N. 1st confirmed the killing of 17 people and the burning of more than 100 houses in the darfur region earlier this week when the u. K. Has said the United NationsAfrican Union mission in darfur its called united must stay in the region it says removing them would violate existing agreements as well as u. N. Rules mike hanna has the details from new york. Well the Security Councils discussing the un mission to doff but looming over these discussions is the situation in sudan itself part of the issue with in darfur is the actions of what are called the Rapid Support forces now these are forces controlled by the military in khartoum the Transitional Military Council and are exactly the same forces that are accused of repressing any form of opposition within sudan itself now the Transitional Military Council to instruct to the un to hand over all its bases to the Rapid Support forces now weve heard in the council this morning the position that this cannot be complied with that the controlled by the u. N. Mission within darfur is absolutely essential in terms of resisting what some members see as these actions by the rep and secure support forces so this is part of the debate going on in the council the need to maintain the mandate for the mission in darfur which expires at the end of this month members such as britain and france arguing very strongly that they should be what they call a technical rollover in other words just let things stay as they are while what is happening in sudan itself reaches some kind of realisation or some kind of situation where it is resolved.

A bill allowing extraditions from hong kong to china might be losing Political Support after days of protests and a u. K. Court orders wiki leaks founder Julian Assange to face a full exhibition hearing next that youre. Welcome to the program our top story accusations and counter claims are being traded over explosions aboard to or oil tankers in the gulf of oman the u. S. Released a grainy video claiming its proof of iranian involvement and the u. K. Says its almost certain that a branch of the Iranian Military attacked the tank as but iran denies its to blame and germany is saying that this video is not conclusive the u. N. Secretary general says the truth into what happened must be established Stephanie Decker reports. What happened to the 2 tankers in the gulf of oman well it depends on who you ask. In iranian t. V. Video shows the norwegian own tanker altera on fire. And u. S. Central command released this footage early on friday came in it shows Iranian Revolutionary guards removing an unexploded limpet mine from the japanese cookoo cook courageous the time stamp according to the americans shows it happened after the vessels crew had been rescued nothing is clear but the message from the Us Administration is iran was behind it it is the assessment of the United States government that the Islamic Republic of iran it is part of the attacks that occurred in the gulf of oman today. This is estimates based on intelligence the weapons used the level of expertise needed to execute the operation recent similar raining attacks on shipping and the fact that no proxy Group Operating in the area has the resources and proficiency to act with such a high degree of sophistication. In tokyo the breakdown from the japanese who owned the kuka courageous seems to shed some doubt on the american version of events the Company Official shows where what he calls a shot hit the tanker in 2 areas the head of the company gave more detail the holes and more were going to the crew is saying that it was hit by flying object theyre saying that something came flying 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 incidence especially as its foreign minister accusing the americans of trying to sabotage diplomacy as the incident happened when the japanese Prime MinisterShinzo Abbott was into han on an official visit both tankers were hit early on thursday morning after passing through the strait of hormuz all crew members were safely evacuated both tankers suffered damage around the waterline i mean the main thing to note is that theyre quite small warheads whatever they are so those are not enormous entry entry penetration mox they clearly havent. Had a huge amount of explosives behind them so yes it was Something Like. You would expect a lot more damage on a ship at the moment there are far more questions than answers but what is certain is that this is a provocative and Dangerous Development in an already tense geopolitical environment Stephanie Decker al jazeera well the iranian president Hassan Rouhani says the u. S. Is pushing an aggressive stance that copy tolerated. As the government of the United States over the last 2 years using economic and military capacity and is creating an aggressive approach the United States has stepped over all the norms and regulations of the International Community and has created new threats for the region and the world has now speak to our White House Correspondent kimberly how kitson can really emphatic conclusions from the United States that iran was almost certainly behind these attacks but are they prepared to act on these assertions. You know u. S. President was asked that very question when he called in for a 15 minute interview to his Favorite Program fox and friends on the American Network here in the United States several hours ago what the president said is that he simply believe that iran was in his words a nation of terror he says iran did it you know they did it because you saw the boat the mine in the video how to run written all over it so he certainly has made a conclusion but did not answer the question about what the United States might do about it only saying were going to see what happens we dont take it lightly that i can tell you but many people questioning the intelligence or the evidence if you will the United States is made public namely that grainy video that we have in our report at the start of this program many people saying that it certainly doesnt conclude that iran was behind these attacks in fact it leaves open more questions than answers so theres a lot of concern not only about the president s sort of strong conclusion but also that of the u. S. Secretary of state a day earlier might pump a 0 where hes alleged that iran is trying to disrupt the flow of oil a in the strait of hormuz what many people feel this is sort of eerily reminiscent of is the sort of aggression of the ramping up of the u. S. Invasion of iraq in 2003 that we now know was a result of faulty intelligence and the fear is that because of american hubris there is the potential for this to happen again. Thank you very much from the white house and joining me now is aljazeera is senior political analyst. Marwan the speed with which secretary of state might pompei of essentially issue that strongly worded statement that iran was almost certainly behind the attack seems to suggest in itself that something could possibly happen can believe i was mentioning 2003 but of course we have also seen tensions and conflict around tankers in the gulf in the late eightys as well absolutely both countries the United States and iran have a long history of provocations of secret warfare of low intensity warfare covert operation and specially directed against each other is by proxy so thats been going on for 40 years and in this very particular instance both countries have something to gain. Today the you know today the wall street journal editorial have already claimed that iran is responsible and hence this justifies america increasing its military deployment in the gulf and the senate should shut up and keep up with american sales of arms to saudi arabia and other countries in the region on the other hand iran also has much to gain from this because iran has been paralyzed because of the american sanctions and it has more than a reason to change the status quo in order for something to give in terms of relieving it of the economic pressure thats on there because of the american policy since the last year that Trump Administration has set the course in motion a year ago and it was clear that the escalation of was going to continue and iran has vowed that it will not. Be dictated to by washington and hence i think it also has a reason now to escalate which party has actually occurred that that as you said we dont know but the one in washington no its either the iran or washington if the iran didnt do it it certainly washington or one of its proxies yes it could of course evidence hasnt been presented and the the americans keep citing intelligence but of course that Sensitive Information hasnt been disclosed and whether there will be an impartial in of investigation we dont know but then on are you suggesting that just iran wouldnt sit by and tolerate economic war being waged against it that perhaps that the sort of policy a strategic patience might have changed and calculations are different now absolutely look it doesnt make sense for the one to be to just sit idly by and look for another year and a half of america that auctioneer and perhaps trump being reelected again and for it to do nothing iran has already been doing things its been doing things in iraq its been doing things in syria in. Lebanon and in yemen and in other places and this is part of a pattern by the iranians they have always been the masters of this kind of a symmetrical conflict warfare within the greater middle east and now the question for them is almost existence will because crippling Iran Oil Exports that means crippling the iranian economy that means hurting the regime they will not stand by and let that go now theyre not getting an attack against the United States theyre not carrying an open attack on trade another the United States nor iran want to take any credit for attacking free trade in the persian gulf but covertly each side is probably just upping the ante because washington wants to get the iran to the negotiation stable to redo the deal the iran what do that and it wants the United States to back out of of its pressure on iran which party will give in what i am betting this is going to continue to escalate forward but iran knows that just briefly in iran and iran knows that the eyes of the world are very much upon it right now if this would be remarkably reckless on the part of the government to be engaging in this sort of action and that sort of International Condemnation it would invite but imagine today the timing couldnt have been better moscow beijing and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in general has basically been supportive of iran iran observer member the Shanghai Group represents a quarter of the World Economy and half of its population and the 2 most important. Countries powers china russia supported iran and the europeans are mostly silent with the exception of the british statement siding with the United States but the europeans have generally been silent so if anyone is isolated in the question of the Iran Nuclear Deal its more of washington than iran thank you very much i was there a senior political analyst on the sciara. Well we want to take you now to our other top story this hour the world Health Organization has decided not to declare an International PublicHealth Emergency over the outbreak in the democratic republic of congo nearly 1400 people have died there since august in the 2nd worst outbreak in history it comes amid concerns the virus might have spread to uganda where 2 people died off to visiting the d.
