A military spokesman for yemens whos the rebel group is warning civilians to stay away from ports in saudi arabia and the u. A. E. The rebels have already targeted saudi arabias portion of the border with yemen. Mohamed al highty says whos the operations on the airports and military sites will continue as long as the war in yemen goes on another whos the military official has told al jazeera that its retaliate against previous saudi attacks. Your are drawn operation of the airport is a strategic talk its resulted in the complete destruction of the radar system that means the navigation of commercial flights would be terminations such a move puts king solomon and his regime in a difficult position this is why the Army Spokesperson warns International Flights of passengers from getting close to saudi airports are talks on saudi airports or revenge for say the u. A. E. Attacks on our airports they have already carried out attacks on our economic harbors and we retaliate by attacking seaports and vital economic facilities which will still have on the Program Going to be live in mali where tear gas has been fired at protest is after they rejected the presence of chief 5 Security Forces in the capital also. I really dont have at this battle to this is the only way. The man accused of killing 51 people in the Christ Church mosque attacks pleads not guilty to all charges. Hello there it certainly is hot for some of us in europe at the moment or not whether its giving us quite a few thunderstorms racing to particularly everyones at the moment make their way through parts of france and up into parts of germany lots of heavy downpours out of this thunder lightning and large hail as well these thunderstorms will gradually be pushing their way eastwards as we head through the day on saturday and into sunday and that will be dragging down the temperatures the some of us at least but no higher than around 22. 00 as we head through sunday but still the risk of a few thundery downpours here towards the west finally beginning to dry out for some of us here and the temperatures. The rising over the next few days as well we have been fairly dismal here over the last couple of weeks now they staying hot for many of us here with warsaw still seeing the temperatures around 30 degrees and still low risk of a few thundery downpours here too from the other side of the mediterranean largely fine and dry for many of us we all sing a bit more cloud over parts about geria thats drifting its way eastwards over parts of china sea of there as we head through saturday the risk of one or 2 showers out of this but that area of cloud gradually dissolves as we head into the sunday and most of us having a fine day the further towards the south of those plenty of showers hey uganda seeing quite a few in there rattling their way towards the west nigeria is expecting some particularly heavy winds. It was the futuristic bullet train that 1st dreamy to japan in those 2 decades of trains reflecting the kind of things that covering around japan is aging the birth rate is falling and the lines and losing money having experienced both the railway and high speed i hope the one will not be neglected to the other off the rails a journey through japan on aljazeera. Welcome back a quick look at the headlines iran has rejected u. S. Claims that it was behind 2 tank explosions in the gulf of oman the u. S. Released the video to back up its claims but germany has said that its inconclusive the u. K. Says its almost certain a branch of the Iranian Military was involved. The World Health Organization has decided not to declare an International PublicHealth Emergency over the outbreak in the democratic republic of congo there are fears the virus could spread to uganda after 2 people died this week. And that yemens who the rebels have won civilians to stay away from airports in saudi arabia and the u. A. E. The armed group says it will continue to target airports and military sites as long as the war in yemen goes on. Gas has been fired at protesters in malis capital bamako off to demonstrations broke out near a military barracks its growing tension over the g. 5 Security Forces in place across the country so we can speak now to nicholas hockey joins us live from tell us whats happening there. Well larry and the riots are taking place in the neighborhood of by love who in downtown by my co just a stones throw away from where the headquarters of the g 5 hell are the g 5 is a joint patrol force of the 5 so how the countries now we were just there just minutes ago and police was firing tear gas there was young men from different ethnic communities whether they will go on full lonnies or bombaiyer throwing stones united against this force they say that they fear that if this force is in their neighborhood then it is a threat not a source of protection it is a threat because armed groups would be charging them remember back in june last year miriam their headquarters in civil was hit by a car bomb then the chief the head of the g 5 decided to move the headquarters in downtown by mco or security reasons still the riots are still going on right now as we speak near him just give us more context tell us why people are angry about the presence of staging find Security Forces. Well people that we spoke youre not just are youre against the g 50 theyre angry against the 1000000 forces and the u. N. Peacekeeping force that are here there are about 14000 u. N. Soldiers that are on the ground in this comes on the heels of an attack intercommunal violence in the center of the country look t. There was an attack on sunday against the going to villagers back in march there was an attack against bologna villagers in both cases the villagers had called the Security Forces for help it took 24 hours for the un forces the mahdi forces or little of the g 5 forces to come and help them so theres a lot of frustration against the Security Forces and the feeling that we see in that neighborhood resonates across the country a feeling of distrust and mistrust against the Security Forces that are there to protect them but for many here to their presence is a source of danger miriam thank you very much bringing us all of them that they saw on those protests taking place in mali and nicholas haq the Un Security Council has held a meeting to discuss its peacekeeping force in darfur the un the killing of 17 people and the burning of more than 100 houses in the darfur region earlier this week and the u. K. Says that the United NationsAfrican Union mission in darfor must stay in the region it says removing them would violate existing agreements as well as u. N. Rules mike hanna has more from the u. N. Headquarters in new york. Well the Security Councils discussing the un mission to doff ur but looming over these discussions is the situation in sudan itself part of the issue within darfur is the actions of what are called the Rapid Support forces now of 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 control 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 there 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. The Hong Kong Government might be wavering in its support for a proposal to allow extraditions to Mainland China and adviser to hong kong lead to carry land says politicians should stop discussing the bill because of the level of opposition that is facing mounting pressure to abandon the controversial bill after hundreds of thousands took to the streets this week to protest it another mass demonstration is due to take place on sunday when the bride has worn out from hong kong. This is going to vote thats been organized by a group called simply the mothers that until a week or so ago didnt exist but its very much in keeping with the spirit of the movement thats been sweeping through hong kong it is spontaneous whats more its in how should we speak up to speak or talk about their opposition to this controversial extradition treaty gives an idea of getting her read the opposition its not just the political the results the day moderate softball right its all its not just the students but its a whole thread to come across a site you could build up against a controversial law that resulted in a 1000000 people taking to the streets last sunday and that has as simply stunned the hong kong rivals like i had with all kinds of rumors circulating that kerry loved the chief executive was about to make a statement possibly that there might be some kind of climb down in the offing that doesnt seem as though its going to take place now but there had been interesting late a statement from a senior government decries that maybe the government should delay pushing this bill through the legislative council. Certainly the government seems to be stunned by the strength of opposition i got may see this coming when you can use up to a 1000000 people taking to the streets again on sunday when all the stories are following the International Court of justice in the netherlands has rejected a request from the United Arab Emirates for immediate measures against cattle in a dispute over alleged discrimination the hearing is part of a wider legal battle between the arab neighbors being heard by judges in the hague cattles made a number of claims to the court after the u.

A a 51. 00 people were killed to mosques on march the 15th on friday the man accused of the shootings pleaded not guilty to murder Brenton Tarrants lawyer said his client also pleaded not guilty to 40 charges of attempted murder and one of engaging in a terrorist act tyrant seen here when he was 1st in court the day after the attacks appeared via video link from where hes being held in oakland he stayed silent but often grinned or smirked at one point he winked at his camera more than a 100 family members of victims and people who were shot but survived were in court to see him for them it was difficult everyone. When you see the smiling face of the joyride say. His lawyers say hes not a guilty that makes me the after more upset and you should 9 times yeah in the al normal yeah and there you were seeing the man accused of doing that so yeah im strong in new zealand they say stay strong and we are we are stronger than him yeah and then hes down to the weakest link he is going to be a loser in we will win in march yama not be invited aljazeera to his fathers funeral on friday he came to see the man accused of killing him can get angry you just have to take a bit come you know i work you need to believe in the father loved one and i have family look any day now but others are angry we lost our. Be love. Clearly very very upsetting its very upsetting. And. I really need to have this penalty this is the only way that wont happen new zealand abolished the Death Penalty 989 and hasnt executed anyone for more than 50 years but tarrant does face life in prison if convicted trials in new zealand normally start within a year of an arrest but the judge said that would not be possible with this one given the complexity of this case and the amount of evidence it wont be until next may that brunson tyrant astroids and that trial could last as long as 3 months under thomas aljazeera christchurch.

S. Is pushing an aggressive stance that cannot be tolerated as the government of the United States over the last 2 years is using economic and military capacity and is creating an aggressive approach to 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. 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 that the virus might have spread to uganda where 2 people died after visiting the d.

Digital technology is the promise in tennessee and hes mentally and even longer not. Even a t. G. Billions of calculations in our pockets it seems need to scrap it and he didnt mention. In which everything in our lives can be increased and tracked and intent is money. That is convenience profit and surveillance the only use these powers. Now a new generation invent booky easiness skills to challenge the tech giants. And enable a different technological future. One where people are not the product. Will do just need to well. We just need to be sure that. You know where the where were going to work with the blood of if it for instance blows a lot of these cases it could best be very fragile. Stubbornly so. At the core. Of a of a strong sense of urgency to see a launch. What i was aware of though is my sense of urgency can often cloud my better judgment and i can. So doing something that is just simply a. High risk you dont want to write off my plan that is going to bite off. Effects are going to break. With a goddess. Juliens i dont. Place those in the cross in time of called myself a critical engineer also an artist but a 1st 1st 1st and foremost a critic engineer. One of the things that i do mind work is to create projects which engender a healthy paranoia. With projects like i like i mean going great which was 2009. We wandering around various cities tristas in grey suits with suitcases that had displays on them. Collecting and harvesting checked stations and websites. And presenting on the surface of this briefcase. We chiefs have a lot of paranoia. When you start to show that technology is not necessarily being transparent and south as to your dealings with it you see some pretty and pretty interesting moment stores i turn. People gave me friends running ive been checking. Many of us have known for a long time and even warned against the risks of having implicit trust and technology we dont understand most particularly the network infrastructure. Used to make it as a plug it redirects all of the traffic coming from the russia the owner of that news tweet box came in appeared at the news or read on that wireless network. And you can manipulate sporting results or electoral results will use headlines. To see the low ground we see the graphics and we think that its coming directly from the b. B. C. To our fine if its in the media it can be manipulated and you can be manipulated to. Engineering is perhaps the most transformative language of the time engineering shapes the way that we move communicate and think. Critically generic seeks to look at engineering as something that we need to grapple with on political terms. The deep sleep is a means to read the surveillance infrastructure in the skies from the earth to the stratosphere. Recently there are a large number of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles that are made by Companies Whose clients are governments clipping information from saladin networks on my Boat Communications these aircraft and the communications are outside of the denying of what is understood to be. Civilian knowledge. They need to understand whats going on and. We start to learning about drawings and the role a lot from the use of drones by the us meter and contractors in places like thought i was just part of pakistan in yemen and somalia was used for surveillance are dirt to be persistently in the air and its collecting everything to all the waves just send signals photography in from right. We know but a little hole over the boat the actual peroration of Surveillance Drones in country in germany and other places because theres no way of gathering that information. Most of disapprobation is our secret. So the subject here is what would be referred to as the payload of our of our project is the very 1st version and it is it contains with radio frequency equipment. A very small computer. And a micro whats called a microcontroller which is a very simple sort of computer its designed to go into the stratosphere carried by with a balloon. When you getting up into 15 and 20 hour kilometers above the earth thats when you would really be above a drive and the satellites that theyre getting to one of the hopes is that maybe it will catch a little bit of that kind of thing and we see evidence of communication going going upward. At the point of its absolute peak the balloon bursts and the parachute of the neck that and it comes all the way back down again. We have a bunch of different bits and tell us for receiving different kinds of reducing ups this one goes from 0 to 30 megahertz that thats a lot of marine Naval Military stuff with this one timer we find for example mobile phones and these these some tell us are traditionally used to. Look at satellites or receive signals from satellites but were actually pointing if i were to just gigahertz receptions or transmissions from whats going on below where this is in the sky initially we just need to get it up there and and then let it do its work in the movie over to make further adjustments and improve its. Improve its performance. The 1st launch in the series. Were just doing a full power start up test we want to know what were actually taking out there when we go out there very soon and i fix it. Ill go outside for a little bit. Im just waiting for it for a g. P. S. Fix. So lets get. This one received the same as from the g. P. S. Satellites. If it doesnt have a fix it seems that it doesnt report to the position properly. Julia. I think it. Read receptive then restored to it. I mean theres the restart. The connection. Not really we have been running for a couple of days on one battery and it was great but now. All of the better is just drained extremely quickly and i dont know why. Its one. That you just love. While theres not enough troops already. Where were really on the ice. We just horribly behind him get that big jobs and. Heres the knife. And yours in his fitness speech none last night i for the day before was quite good you didnt have any know this went. Well thats something good. To rake it off until you have truly lost or just bloody my. It is its a museum its a good disease to have. I think its one. There isnt one large contingency and thats the airspace or thirtys. You want to have Just Launched a balloon with a big shiny bore underneath full of population quickly without the paperwork a lot of paperwork i think. Were going. To be safe. We will get a new battery tomorrow morning. Because we really dont want it to fame awful hoffer satellite. Often almost Something Like. The technology will not go away i would say its a very serious thing every. Time something about how about us governments take one extra step towards that extending the surveillance of her office. And we have basically have no one. Really momentum going the other way. Its very important to look at drug study use for surveillance to collect data. Its creating an archive not just very much of. This data is being used to define what is the standard behavior of a normal group or person and as an out food what is the outlier behavior and that creates a very sophisticated one way surveillance system. And hes operating the grace fear of law. I would say human rights. The drum in itself is just a flying object what matters is what kind of to what is being attacked and who is using doubt information. In psychiatrys an extra antenna to pretend to be one of the official ones and makes a device communicate with them so it can be listened to. Its common enough. And psychiatrists are being muscled news by Law Enforcement in many countries and we know that i am sick of as i us on drugs. If you think Police Departments now acquiring Drone Technology from small to big build such that they can be fitted with cameras then you can be sure that our skies are going to be full of a hell of a lot of rights compromising mitchell quite clearly theres a lot of interest in making sure that we the people dont know about it and dont know the extent of it so how else to learn some hardware what else i mean when i think. The major problem yesterday was the battery. And now we have well actually weve got another charger and weve got this and your battery as well. This is 110 grams together and sending 110 grams extra opting to the structure doesnt make sense so what were doing is just getting the right kind of connector directly. On this box so we dont have. This dead weight. It will give us hopefully a couple of 1000 meters of extra altitude before the balloon burst just based on the decreased weight. Were going to launch this thing into the stratosphere and them we will not see it for a few hours. Hopefully we will see together. 22. To go. Here go. In with the other pressure. Never getting to yes. Its exciting to explore what is out there when we get the data back we. Would have to try to figure out what it extremist and what a comfort. We have no illusions of flipping i would read the contents of communication between mysterious how to choose the eccles and satellites that i talk to. We arent interested in and fingerprinting devices providing material for people to be able to guess and ultimately determine what is in the skies above the. Best attitude of 25. 4 kilometers and and that would have a 10158 minutes to get there. 158 minutes to burst. Which is looking at calculating how high it will get into and how much he lives required because that indicates the the drift of the blue. And potentially and it can make a difference between 20 kilometers and 200 kilometers this is ok for us. But really. When london home. Yeah we have to be painting too nice and polish some polish and least the basic greetings and. I mean the fama bottles father polish things bob is going to be a big red this is we cant really wait too long because we have pushing for a limited period weve already were already losing that commission as we as it is beach at. My connection at the moment is to is to pick a bit of divers were present. At the wynn just come calms down a little bit that a bit by bits its just hard. So youre good to see would be to launch now and then and then jump in the car and go try to find it a bit of a drug overdose. You know. What style of spirits. Were going to go. And we can use these eggs too by the way. And. You. Seem to get the good. It is for some of the certain kinds of squids. The bodies of squids yes. There was easily as i reckon its full of scores on both. The male worried about the body of a little. Less stress on the neck of the blue. You could have told a string the title is no joke its like its its a so dont dont know if it really really really really really really grab any couple to hands on the on the problem. It will be so obviously quite a cathartic giving support and so the finish to what is otherwise been quite a bit of work but little concerned about that with a balloon loss for instance for the meterological community as 3 out of 5 last night. The reverse men are going to be doing this were not. Going to really be doing this. They worry about going to really lifts this way i mean its supposed to. Supposed to be able to you know so were just like i shake hands. And that 123. Trees. Just a little. Unbelievable there goes its pretty. Incredible to done this. And i was thinking. Where will this thing go who ever say to go. To i was kind to not house came 3 hours kind 4 and 5 and then we started to become a little bit despondent damn you know we havent. We lost track of it so we went to bed and put on all those last summers most and then sure enough the next morning were going to sing it and then we particularly its kaliningrad its flying out of kaliningrad and eventually a very uncomfortable silence from it and then another estimates and it landed in a field near minsk belarus. Several 1000 kilometers away which is incredible and blew it up to just over 10 kilometers. And then it probably encountered High Altitude winds and was pushed east at a mess of the massive speed. We believe that that the deep sleep was the 1st civilian earth to stratosphere scan is routinely done by military but we believe we are the furthest. Weve got plenty of interesting forms if you like shapes that indicate traffic and activity. If i just drop the scroll bar down we actually see the waveform representation so this is the low low frequencies this is the mid range and this is the the high frequencies and we see as we go from the dick across like this point to point we see where there was there was in ajijic phenomena the saying that is peaks and drops and and rise of falls much like a Mountain Range i suppose. The low frequencies are predictably very energetic. Youve obviously got a lot of moraine more to call astronomical in the sense of ready to astronomy youve got a hell of a lot of stuff that is not going to be occurring in its predictably. High we started to see Different Things the higher we got and we see some very interesting traffic in the the mid range 10 kilometers above the earth and we start seeing activity at 1300 megahertz you know we start seeing this this stuff going on there and whats happening at that at that altitude at 1300 megahertz you know its curious for us. And then in the high. There were these very interesting sort of last minute bursts. And i passenger planes im known to be flying at that time and theyre not theyre not speaking on those frequencies anyway so. What is that. Maybe its a scientifically sound project of some sort maybe it isnt a literary or whatever. There are some very distinct manmade shapes that you can only end in what does that have one of it doing at that altitude i mean theres the securest. We dont know what it is but its. Its exciting to know that that we can actually get up there and say yes and do that. We we caught something obviously there. Lots of people can do this its not illegal to study the air above us assess that the mains are not available. Or come up with a you know a nice sort of respect how to do that launch get the data and upload it was working and then we can start comparing. The yard. We understand the differences. And the similarities of cultures across the world so no matter how you take it aljazeera will bring you the news and Current Affairs that matter to you aljazeera. 8 years after the fall of gadhafi all is still raging in libya but its not just a domestic showdown outside powers are involved 2 spoke about the axis of evil. This is over these and use your passions. Talks to aljazeera. Being located outside that western centric sphero of influence were able to bring a different perspective to global events when you peel away all of the lists of cove the military in the financial dog and you see the people in those words and those policies are affecting see the emotion on the face of the situation theyre living in thats when all the us can identify with the story. Hello im Maryam Namazie and london just a quick look at the headlines for you now accusations and counter claims of being traded of explosions aboard 2 oil tankers in the gulf of oman the u. S. Released a grainy video claiming its proof of iranian involvement and the u. K. Is saying its almost certain that a branch of the Iranian Military attack the tank is but iran denies its to blame and germany says the video is not conclusive the u. N. Secretary general says the truth into what happened missed be established Stephanie Decker holds. 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 altair 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 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 is responsible for 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 to light 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 posturing 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 a silo 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 aljazeera.
