A migrant camp which is leading toward a rise in refugees fleeing towards the u. K. Now we begin in afghanistan where at least 46 people have been killed in 2 bombings just 11 days out from the president ial election the taliban says it was behind the attacks Afghan Security forces were the targets the 1st bombing us in the election running for president on the part of one province killed 24 people vallium self was unharmed the 2nd hit near the u. S. Embassy in kabul killed at least 22 people bryant has more from kabul. And the hospitals are still dealing with the casualties and we know that the death toll is now going to 26. 00 People Killed there with at least 30 injured and now the interior Ministry Tells us that 4 of those were soldiers so once again it means that the vast majority of the victims were indeed civilians just caught up in this attack but it does seem to be a part of the talibans threat to disrupt this Election Campaign ashraf ghani was due to speak at this event and its threatened to disrupt other election events throughout the country so it is certainly a concern also of course was this 2nd attack in kabul itself right in the center of the city in an area that is very tightly controlled where the should be very tight security its where it is home to all of the embassies of the government buildings the. Heads of the military and police and so on and this explosion did take place in the ministry of defense close to the u. S. Embassy now were getting reports from the interior ministry that the death toll is over 20 with possibly 30 plus more people injured the taliban again claiming responsibility saying that it was targeting military personnel and soldiers but again its not clear just how many of these People Killed and injured will indeed have been serving with the military or will have been civilians. Israelis are voting in their 2nd general election in less than 6 months Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is hoping for a 5th term he failed to achieve a majority or form a coalition in april 1 called an unprecedented rerun but smith reports from occupied east jerusalem. Hes promised to annex the Jordan Valley in the occupied west bank and hes warned he may be replaced by leftists who week in israel Benjamin Netanyahu is facing corruption allegations and doing everything he can to win this election and try to avoid a criminal trial. The election is close i can confirm to you this morning they are very close i call them all israelis to come and vote just like me and my wife came to vote they want only for home good luck and thank you the Prime Ministers main rival benny gantz his blue and white party took 35 seats in aprils election the same as netanyahu could neither was able to build a coalition that would give them 61 seats and a majority in parliament. Which leaves other door leaving as potential kingmaker one time friend of netanyahu loyalist lieberman refused to enter government with the Prime Minister saying too many concessions have been made to ultraorthodox parties so netanyahu dissolved parliament you should think carefully how you will cast your vote for whoever wants to see a liberal secular unity government without the ultra orthodox should stop and think for a 2nd so far early voter turnout has been the highest in more than 30 years but preelection polls still predict this vote will be as close run as the last time to chose the country is split in so many different ways that its very sad this election is about change policy. Its about change. I hope that what a void for is going to be there but. I think it will be divided again yeah because its really close this is the 1st time in israels history that a 2nd election has been held because the Largest Party was unable to form a coalition the polls close at 10 pm local time and exit poll soon after should give an early indication of the way the voting has gone and then there could be weeks or even months of political horse trading before we know who will be the next Prime Minister of israel Bernard Smith aljazeera in occupied east jerusalem. Well the aftereffects of an attack on saudi arabias oil supplier becoming clear as the u. S. Continues to blame iran officials in china have been told its all deliveries will be the laid and there are reports saudi arabia is trying to buy diesel for urgent delivery saudi arabia says the attacks were carried out using a rainy and weapons to iran denies that the rebels say they were behind the attacks they say the way of protecting the oil market would be. For the Saudi Led Coalition to stop its offensive in yemen u. S. President donald trump says it looks like iran was behind saturdays drone attacks which crippled more than half of saudi arabias Oil Production he says he will wait to see definitive proof before deciding how to respond said secretary of state mike pompei ill be traveling to riyadh at some point to coordinate a response several hours on the reports from washington. President donald trump says the u. S. Is still collecting and analyzing intelligence related to saturdays attack on Saudi Oil Facilities but says all evidence gathered dust far points to one country when asked if that country was iran this was the president s response which looking that way will have some pretty good. We have a some very strong studies done but its certainly looking that way at this moment and. Well let you know the spectrum said he does not want war with iran but said his administration would coordinate closely with riyadh on in response the saudis want very much for us to protect them but i say well we have to work there was an attack on saudi arabia and there was an attack on us but we would certainly help them but despite the alliance between washington and riyadh there are doubts about how much clout saudi arabia has to force the u. S. Into military action this alliance has been very interested in the past few months. On many issues so the troubled history and the u. S. In general is looked willing to basically fight a war and we have the so its the who the rebels in yemen backed by iran claimed responsibility for the attacks on monday irans president Hassan Rouhani flatly rejected the u. S. Ascertain tehran was involved saying the who these were behind it and for legitimate reasons. The many people are exercising their legitimate right of self defense the attacks are reciprocal and the main solution is to halt these attacks the solution for the yemeni crisis is also political we believe that. President trump said it was a large attack against saudi arabia but could be met with an attack many times larger this is threatening language trump has used in the past against syria north korea and even iran without following through with significant military action but clearly tensions are escalating trump said secretary of state mike pompei o. And other Administration Officials would be traveling to riyadh soon to coordinate a response. Aljazeera washington. A runoff vote is expected in tunis is 2nd president ial election since the arab Spring Revolution 2 outsiders are in the lead law professor and imprisoned media magnate may be able to cut away most of the votes have been counted at a press conference is expected soon Stephanie Decker is live for us in tunis most the votes have been counted what does it look like. Well at the moment looks like top 2 as you mentioned there. Previously unknown before the revolution really a constitutional expert law professor who became known by going on television and talking about the legalities of the constitution that they were drafting and then you have the bill cutaway you with as you mentioned behind bars facing charges of Money Laundering and tax evasion hes a man whos used his Media Company to highlight his chargeable work with the poor we were talking to people on the streets today and theyre saying well this is why particularly elderly voted for him but most people we spoke to were very keen on the University Professor this is a man who has no Political Party sammy he hardly campaigned hardly any money was spent on his campaign and some people will tell you in fact he didnt spend anything new social media this is a man who uses a knock your phone which in this age of social media is quite extraordinary so this is whats looking likely having said that were now 3 hours delayed of this press conference just been hearing a couple of rumors about you know what my being discussed the fact that cutaway is in jail and what does it mean Going Forward will be it will be around allowed to run were going to have to wait and see what the final results are and and what theyre going to say whether it is these 2 men or if there are going to be some changes. Its expected this is going to go course to a 2nd round stephanie take us through that process and what is supposed to happen then. Thats right well you had 26 president ial candidates for one to win outright they needed over 50 percent of the vote none of them have had that none of them will have that so it is certain that there will be a president ial run of the day to really depends on whether theyre going to be legal appeals which could be likely so youre looking at the latest date sammy of a president ial runoff here would be october the 13th at the same time you have legislative elections the parliament thats also going to result in a Prime Minister whos going to you know appoint a new government so you have the entire Political Landscape if you will of tunisia up for grabs in the next couple of weeks you know moving away from the politics into the people who are exercising their democratic right to vote certainly according to the observers the votes been pretty free and fair people will tell you theyre sick of the old guard theyre sick of politicians promising not delivering when it comes to you know actual changes on the ground so that is what people are going to be looking at whoever comes into office whether they will deliver on those promises all right stephanie back of their from tunis.

Now a Supreme Court challenge to Boris Johnsons decision to suspend parliament until mid october is underway in london the court will decide whether the british Prime Minister broke the law when he sent members of Parliament Home for 5 weeks until october the 14th the u. K. Is due to leave the e. U. Less than 3 weeks after they return to london. Jonah hill is live for us in london on the left side of your screen on the right side we see those proceedings in court. Hows it going in court. On every day. Jeopardy sanjay some of this about another hour to run in the proceedings today weve heard from you see as representing the appellants 1st this morning the campaign is doing all he can to vegas i can answer this afternoon for the government in the case of the scottish high courts navy hail the judge president of the Supreme Court began the day by savings or serious and difficult questions as evidenced by the fact that 3 senior judges in scotland reached a difficult a different conclusion to 3 senior judges in england the issue upon which both cases were seeking to decide was the legality of Boris Johnson its decision to probe or suspend argument you may recall a few weeks back the English High Court judges said look this was not an issue for the courts that was a political decision and it wasnt for the courts to decide on the political reasons for a political decision the scottish judges last week said look that may be the case generally but where it can be shown and they believed it was shown that the prerogative powers of the Prime Minister had been exercised for purposes other than those for which those powers were intended in this case not simply progun parliament for a queens speech but instead to stifle parliaments ability to scrutinise directed policy well in that case the courts could step in and stop it or that is the case that is the issue rather in front of the Supreme Court so afternoon and over the next couple of days essentially deciding whether and when it is appropriate for the courts to interfere in politics and doesnt put it all in context. For the government for the country. Potentially an enormous amount so i mean and i can tell you that lord keane acting for the government a short while ago said the Prime Minister. Well take all necessary steps to comply with any declaration from the Supreme Court and thats important because of course if this judgment goes against the government well for one thing Boris Johnson his government could be faced into the humiliation of recalling parliament and there are a lot of m. P. s very keen to get back to work as that breaks it deadline looms but potentially far more serious for the Prime Minister is that if that would be the case well in this city he would then have lied to the queen in advising her to parliament lied about his purpose for wanting parliament wrote and if as a result of a Supreme Court judgement the Prime Minister is seen to have lied to the queen well that could be extremely serious for him and he may find it very difficult to resist the pressure to resign. Right jonah how there live from london. Thousands of firefighters are working around the clock to try and contain forest blazes in indonesia the burning in samantha and the borneo islands the smoke has spread to neighboring countries sparking a diplomatic row over whos responsible Indonesian Police have arrested more than 200. 00 people accused of contributing to the disaster forest fires happen every year in the country usually started by farmers clearing land for crops natures president juggler dodos says his country has been negligent in tackling the fires.

Fans years. Either in jeopardy or at other Capital Cities of the provinces or even in the u. S. Provincial or district city so you can imagine that the. Plantation maybe like.
