It found perceptions and planning but london preparation and planning by london fire brigade was gravely inadequate london fire brigade did not comply with his duties to gather information needed for distinguishing fires say put should have been withdrawn earlier and failure to withdraw stay put cause further loss of lives. Evacuation was always possible. Jonah hill has more now from west london where there is a feeling on the ground here at Grenfell Tower among. The support group and Community Representatives that ive spoken to that while this report is strong is valid it highlights failures that certainly did take place in the fire response and indeed failings that the fire brigade itself isnt attempting to hide from it doesnt go far enough because as the fire brigade itself has pointed out essentially this building was a death trap before the fire even began and that is because of fire safety lapses inside of the building but also crucially in the planning that was applied to the exterior of the building rain screen cladding with a polyethylene core highly combustible that meant that the fire was able to leap all the way up to the top in just a matter of about 20 minutes on the outside fast faster than the fire brigade could control it or even properly understand what was going on and it is aspires the community here is concerned the ultimate failing of the councillors of the Tenant Organization of the contractors involved in the 2016 renovation of this building and that is where they really want to see accountability and justice done now that portion of this inquiry will only take place in phase 2 this is just phase one phase 2 takes place next year it could be 18 months long it is only after that that a Police Investigation will conclude and possible criminal charges laid so accountability for the people that the community here feels are actually responsible and justice are still a long way off. Sudans main Opposition Leader says the government has failed to push through a peace deal aimed at ending years of fighting the former rebel leader rick machar says a unity government cant be achieved before the deadline in the middle of november a 6 year conflict has led to the deaths of more than 400000 people and internationally mediated peace deal is still in place him or morgan has more now from khartoum in neighboring sudan. With less than 2 weeks to go it doesnt look like all the waring sides who signed a peace deal here in the sudanese capital hard time last year are in agreement with regards to forming a Transitional Government mid november now lets remember that the november 12th deadline is already an extension of the initial deadline which was made 12 Opposition Leader rick machar says that the security arrangements and the number of states are 2 issues which hinders him from returning him back to juba and forming a Transitional Government on time asked for the peace deal that was signed 83000 troops from both sides are to be brought together trained and unified before being redistributed across the country and forming a National Army now that has not fully completed yet the process started less than 2 months ago the other issue is the number of states now lets go back to october 2015 when south sudans president change the number of states in the country from 10 to 32 that was something that opposition to direct much are strongly rejected and said was illegal and he says that those 2 issues should be resolved before a government of National Unity is formed now into the Intergovernmental Authority on development a regional body which has backed the deal along with the European Union and several regional countries have said that it comes down to the mediators sudan and uganda to bring the 2 sides together and bring them and put them to the negotiating table and decide whether they can go ahead and form a government and resolve these issues after that Transitional Government is formed or they will be once again another extension and people of south sudan have to wait to see a Transitional Government and for stability in the country.

Boeings chief executive is facing a 2nd day of questions from american politicians hes testifying to the house transportation and Infrastructure Committee to the companies 7378 kroft crashed in a period of 6 months killing 346 people the committee has accused boeing of keeping technical issues quiet and putting profits before safety correspondent john hendren is not boeings International Headquarters in chicago it is day 2 of the grilling of dennis loewenberg the chief executive officer of the boeing company and it has not gone particularly smoothly for the company yesterday tuesday was the one Year Anniversary of the 1st of 2 crashes of the boeing 737. 00 max plane a total of 346 people have been killed in those crashers and in that 1st crash one year and one day ago 189 people died on a lion air flight off the coast of indonesia Dennis Miller of the c. E. O. Has endured a grilling from senators on tuesday and from house members on wednesday on tuesday one senator said he would rather walk than flying in that plane another called it a flying coffin well no longer has apologized 2 days in a row in some cases the victims family members were in that audience and on wednesday he said we will do Everything Possible to prevent accidents like this from ever happening again he says the company has made 3 changes to the Flight Control system that is believed to be responsible it will have 2 sensors instead of the current one it will only activate once and it will never counteract input from the pilot so the pilots had no idea that the plane would have this system that would counter act what they were doing or felt that this plane was stalling it would force the nose down and its believed that is the system responsible the big question now is will federal regulators engage more and require more certification of future planes including this one and what is the future of Dennis Mullen who already has been demoted from chairman to simply chief executive of boeing. Facebook has sued an israeli Cyber Surveillance Firm for allegedly hacking uses of its encrypted messaging Service Whatsapp the lawsuit filed in San Francisco is the 1st legal action of its kind according to Facebook Facebook says the n. S. A. Group hacked into the phones of roughly 1400 users targeting human rights activists political dissidents and journalists Omar Abdel Aziz is a friend of saudi journalist hummel Jamal Khashoggi who was killed inside the saudi consulate in istanbul in 2018 last december he fell the lawsuit against n. S. A. Saying the hacking of my phone played a major role in what happened to jamal the n. S. O. Group has not directly denied hacking or but said it disputed the allegations and to vigorously fight them mark is chief analyst for Digital Services that are japan and he says more evidence is needed to conclude whether the allegations against the n. S. A. Group are actually true. I dont have any specific information about the n. S. O. Group whether or not theyve been involved in this directly or not but this company is a company that sells spyware to governments and in latin america in the middle east and then in other places so while i think its possible i still think were going to need to see a little bit more of the evidence thats behind these allegations in this lawsuit i would also point out that this lawsuit was filed in San Francisco and what kind of jurisdiction they may or may not have over an Israeli Company over something that happened in the 3rd country is also somewhat dubious i would say every time you look at whats happened you sent a message you see a message on your screen thing that yes dont worry this is and encrypted but now the companies coming out and saying well but actually we were hacked and were suing somebody so the key message here to consumers to businesses and to governments that these apps that youre using that youre probably sending Sensitive Information on every day are not nearly as secure as they claim that they are and that you think that they are i think nothing is technically will prove this is the 1st thing that i would say but i think that what weve also seen a lot of use is the app telegram the hong kong protesters are using this and a lot of other social movements around the world have been using telegram because of the fact that theyre not storing data on a central server which i think is one of the leading secure apps out there at the moment.

Live pictures this half hour the wildfires in Southern California valley near los angeles this is close to the Ronald Reagan president ial library whose staff have been moved out both ends of the state struggling to tackle blazes strong winds that fanned the flames and deliberate intentional blackouts a relic for a city as well those are your headlines the news continues on aljazeera after witness for the afghan journalist our season. So so so. So so its. A tax you in this country that. Certainly didnt want to be this one but i just feel like. Both afghanistan and start are walled. Always be. Many consider this luxury hotel to be one of the safest spots in kabul but late thursday taliban gunmen stormed the serena who tells restaurant killing 9 people including prominent journalist sardar achmad his wife and 2 children all 4 shot point blank to the head afghan Authorities Say the 4 gunmen had guns and ammunition in their shoes to evade security we are still waiting for of for all those investigation to take place. Where the. Windows are going to have to use a more human maybe you cannot go wrong. Almost the moment you know. The knowledge is almost the same and i would come out but the list goes from a motorcycle is not all good im going to go to good boys to come out raise with management that chemical. Boom when you cornishman 1st but Johnny Johnny that i havent seen you for like an insulated they sure as in they knew going to borders assess. Whether he could have gotten more of a hook on the raft myself were going to yes and then you. Called me if i was in the washroom if im going to 1st question. Tony as you know one of them can. I would look at a lot of things this is sardar and these are things i got his boss at the f. B. I. Let me have a few things from his desk. He had this really weird cute love of pine cones one time he was like hold out your hand and so i did any put a pine cone in my hand i think it was this one actually he was really into the free a. J. Staff thing in cairo and we had a day here where we all went to the al jazeera bureau. That sort of missed it and so he came to my office and he had me take a picture of him holding this and its like now like a widely used photo of him so i dont know i feel like trying to find out what happened to him is maybe it would bring some closure and is that i dont really know what else to do. There are so many Unanswered Questions as per usual the taliban claimed responsibility but we think theres more to the story. So he was a will and i think. If one knows him and when deserves it and he deserves that definitely and he deserves that and me a new journalists so this is one responsibility we dont have guns on arms to go and fight with the wrists our pen our camera our newspaper as our own guns so lets fight through death when. So let us work over this issue to follow that what happened with some of the worst case what happened within the investigation which the Afghan Security officer else. On board actually resulted in a normal story. That i dont care to try to move on past very. Very small school many people during this exam theres a to it and its he was a very good reasons all reason to do it which got us all great character and. All the dozens from pomp and i have never been here im sure you have never been here you know a thing i hate this place. Where nightmare happened. To me this is definitely amazing that such a baby hotel with 90 ports how its possible a few tourists can get inside this plates everyone gets away with everything here you can go in and attack a hotel and kill people and kill children and nothing happens. So now were going to try to get answers from the ministry of interior because obviously. Theyre the ones that were 1st on the scene and should know more about who these people were and what happened and how it all was even allowed to happen with duping what was in ones findings well unfortunately one of the exact findings because we submitted everything the scene. And all of those proofs and evidence to the n. D. S. Because they were responsible for the investigation of these complicated terrorist attacks and that the 2 warring if we want a place like cyrano with more of the mighty courts can become a victim how did it happen how is that possible to do rather than the right person to every security person or in the city you know the company or the person or everyone or they were out and just to get the government doesnt hold us every night accountable doesnt seem to keep going on they have their conference is people go still so this is just a staircase yes weve got a new Security Company and then that theyre allowed to continue without paying and the story is the government would not be able to comment on that when insider was killed some of the guys were saying Courtney John this is afghanistan as if that makes it ok you know her and i think that we should never accept that just because you have suffered attacks every year isnt that they continue that this never and ok but the world should know that we are here to price and its not ok we shouldnt be going to love because it could lose the right to have you know that really is a of the people around the world. George w. Are covering a lot of the most loved ones thong with us on this would call. For conniving and because of course our own muslim. Monger. Mistress i discover the girl moment the lights all of this absorb the hospital with a yearning for joy without your who does it with. Should i give an example yet it would be great like like what well my personal one was your 1st but i love you most of you know well its good to hear that i stayed up but now you know the people who died for it worse but if you want to say that i was going to do it now i dont want to say it its probably the whole personality is not ideologically stupid but if you see a lot of things just because a low blow say about it is just used to how but.
