Before we get into our top stories a developing story coming to us breaking news out of israel where the army says theres been a quote security incident along the northern border with lebanon yet to go into any detail of exactly whats happened but israelis living along the border have been told to stay indoors lets take you live to western islam and al jazeera is correspondent there harry forsett harry what do we know. Well as you say the official information coming from the Israeli Military is pretty limited at the moment they say that there has been a security incident in this area the shaba farms area in the occupied Golan Heights along the line with lebanon and they have instructed all farmers to stop operations hikers to get off the streets tourists to get out of open areas and to cover the other information that were getting is coming from Israeli Military sorry israeli media in the area there has been a lot of attention on this border area because of threats from hezbollah to respond the militia in lebanon to respond to the killing of a hezbollah fighter in syria last monday which was attributed to an israeli air strike and so what were hearing from israeli media is that the Israeli Military seem to have preempted an attempt of infiltration by fighters from the lebanese side which they say were trying to plant some kind of explosives again this is all reported information we cant. Stand this up separately but that they were trying to plant explosives and it was the exchange of fire and no reported casualties were hearing so far on the israeli side and that at the moment the situation seems to have quietened again how significant is this immediate region. Well its obviously something that does give cause for concern if this was the promised retaliation from hezbollah and if it didnt go off according to plan the question then remains as to what might come next there was a similar kind of situation a little less than a year ago after another strike inside syrian territory which killed hezbollah fighters that one a very deliberate one from the israelis to try to preempt and to cut off a unit that they said were planning to make drone attacks from is syrian territory into israel this time the israelis have said that the killing of the hezbollah fighter was not intended according to reports that they had communicated that message to hezbollah there have also been sunday escalatory messages coming from hezbollah as well about there being no appetite or atmosphere suggesting that a full blown conflict might break out however there is this long standing promise from the leader of hezbollah Hassan Nasrallah which was made in the aftermath of that incident last year in which there was an attack from hezbollah on an Israeli Military. Border post that any further kind of attacks on hezbollah fighters would be met from within lebanon the question is was this that response to this most recent incident and if they arent able to tell their own people that it has gone off successfully does that still mean that there could be more to come does this mean though that what were really talking about here is an israeli anticipation of a reprisal attack on the part of hezbollah that has yet to take place because weve seen no reports or no pictures of the aftermath or the ongoing Current Situation that would make us think that something was happening as we speak. Thats right and as i say israeli media are reporting that the situation there now is quiet after this exchange of fire i have to say again that we are basing this very largely on the reports from israeli media in the area of the official information coming from the military is extremely turfs but yes what is the reporting at the moment is that there was an attempt to infiltrate by a group of fighters to lay explosives but that was repelled by members of the Israeli Military who are on heightened alert they have been fortified in recent days in anticipation of such an attack so again the question is whether on a can be satisfied on both sides as to what has happened so far or whether there still remains an outstanding desire or need on the part of house as butler to respond to the death of its fighter last monday ok thanks for that do stay close youll come back to us im sure when you get the very latest information on that breaking story here on the news are a force of our correspondent there in west jerusalem. Ok turning our attention to iraq there protesters say theyre fed up with corruption unemployment and Poor Public Services and antigovernment rallies overnight in baghdad at these 2 people were killed they are the 1st fatalities during demonstrations since the Prime Minister mustapha was sworn into office iraq has seen months of unrest as it deals with an economic crisis and political instability so manifolds and is in fact that. This is the funeral procession for one of the protesters who was killed in last night here where. Tourists have gathered to hear. The memory of him and theyre marching from where indirect fire where violence took place. Right. After the fight in. March this year when he robbed. Me and now we can see that. They are angry at the government for not delivering electricity. The government not making the sweeping changes. In october. Who put the Prime Minister in his position what protection have you provided to the protesters what demands have you implemented for the protesters you didnt provide any solution not the simplest things its very silly that theres no electricity no clean water you didnt do anything for the citizens. The military spokesperson of the Prime Minister has condemned the violence has promised an investigation youre also said the Security Forces have been ordered to use force only as a last resort but until now the details of what happened last night remain unclear what is certain however is the demonstrators are very angry at the government and they have little confidence that this government could actually bring those responsible to account now the president of the philippines roderigo to say has defended his governments response to the coronavirus pandemic saying it prevented between one and 3000000 extra infections in his annual state of the nation address mr also highlighted the success of the lockdown there but admitted they were slow in rolling out testing the speech comes as around 2000 people gathered outside a university in manila to protest against his policies to turn hes been accused of mishandling. The response to the pandemic and criticized over a new Anti Terrorism law for more lets cross live. Is covering those protests in manila how combustible these protests because mr say for so long has had a very strong footprint on the country. Well peter you know over the last few years the state of the nation speeches of president through the good that theyre to have been overshadowed by protests and they were usually much bigger and much more widespread in the we compared to this year from the very beginning also because of the coronavirus endemic polices threats and protesters that if anybody appeared in the street with a placard or poster that they will arrest them without warrant immediately so majority of these protesters over a 1000 of them troop to the university of the philippines nearby about a few kilometers from congress where detectives spoke and conducted their rally there so they were able to contain the situation on the ground but not the rage you know this was a speech that was about several hours late but it was all over in less than 2 hours and president of the good that there just spoke of bureaucratic gains in government over the last few months he also said that there will be no face to face. Classes until a vaccine has been developed he revealed that he had this discussion with the chinese president xi jinping just a few days ago he said 4 days ago where he appealed to the chinese leader basically that the philippines the me the for your should a vaccine develop and surprisingly today for the very 1st time he admitted that he is powerless when it comes to fighting that there dorio this part of the philippines against china in the South China Sea he described himself as in utah and that hes basically not going to be able to do anything about it but still he said despite this you will not allow the return of u. S. Bases in the country now on didnt continuously he kept talking about infrastructure and the economy but he kept going back to the issue of security in the speech meter where he also said that because he was not able to come fulfill his Campaign Promise of ending crime and corruption within the 1st 3 months of office he now wants to implement the Death Penalty by lethal injection. Now activists are saying the president and his government is too focused on security and silas say of silencing this sense by fleeing dissent and this comes at a time when just a few months ago the biggest Media Network was shut down the same one you threatened will be able to renew its franchise you know at this point also the anti terror laws come into effect what a lot of critics were hoping today is for the government for president for the good of there to to lay out the plan a clear road map as to where the country is going over the next few years considering that its already on the recession that millions of village you know several ready lost their jobs and many are hungry and desperate peter jamila thank you very much reporting live from manila.

And this Team Celebrates upsetting the apple cart in turkey details later with santa in about 30 minutes. From the americas to europe and to australia most countries around the world are now of course facing a rise in covert 19 infections more than 16000000 people have been diagnosed since the pandemic began 4300000 are in latin america which the World Health Organization has designated the new epicenter most are in brazil mexico and argentina. Turning our attention here on the news out of spain where the region of catalonia is considering even tougher virus restrictions if the infection rate doesnt improve within the next 10 days the u. K. Last thing has imposed a quarantine on all travelers coming from Spain International air transport association i asked which represents airlines describes that move as a step too far the World Health Organization says that while things do not bad countries such as spain are well placed to handle new outbreaks the situation is there were close to what it was there before in the authorities certainly assure us that theyre taking every possible measure to investigate and suppress clusters and taking localized action to suppress those who clusters of disease so i think it will take a number of days or weeks for us to to see what is the future in spain but we trust that with this wolf an approach with the sense of the surveillance with the sustained testing and with the cooperation of people in spain that we will see these clusters come under control into course live to barcelona and my colleagues. We have been hearing from one of the regional leaders there in catalonia what was said. Yes well the president of the law. Said these morning that if the outbreak on the part of how great is not contained in the next 10 days tough the measures will have to be put in place here in the region of catalonia from the 20990 clusters that still active here in the region the whole region he said that some of them are as worse as back in the month of march and so if things dont get Better Things they will have to take action on these the number of folk one of our. Cases has been increasing in the last weeks we have reduced to 1000 infections spirit day and 80 percent of this infection are up and have been taking place here in buffalo now where we are right now so despite the regional catalonia has toughened measures than other regions seems spain like the mandatory use of mass to close in farsi perhaps in. Nightclubs closing down some bars on the terraces some to me close by midnight the situation is quite worrying so we have to wait these 10 days to see things get better. As the Spanish Government had anything to say about the quarantine regulations that are now in place for anyone returning back to the u. K. Having been on holiday in spain. Yes the Spanish Government is sending a clear message for everyone to start and to regain to recover the confidence of the other countries that already have some limitations on restrictions to travelers coming to a country like the United Kingdom and expect a measure of the 14 days of self isolation of people travelling to spain they want to send 2 clear messages of travelling to spain is safe. Outbreak is completely contained now the negotiations on the Spanish Government with the British Government that represent a 20 percent or the whole amount of stories that we wont come every year its quite important for a Tourism Sector they want to keep the want to keep out of this measure the. Islands the Tourism Sector is quite damaged quite he told ready being 3 there were fire allies for 3 or 4 months and they were just suspecting hoping to recover at least this Summer Season during the month of july the end of 2 laws theres now a spine yurts are leaving plenty of uncertainty on hope. They dont know whats going to happen next ok mark so thank you very much mark said it out there in spain for us here on the news or the us is recording up to 70000. 00 new infections per day california is the most followed by florida those who were taken new york but the state still has the highest number of deaths topped totaling 32000. Australia has just seen its highest daily rise in infections a day after reporting its worst death toll most of the 532 new cases are in the state of victoria struggling to contain a resurgence its been partly blamed on people going to work despite being infected. Ok lets move on to some other top stories to south africa 43 suspects are in court accused of killing 5 people during an attack on a church the Court Hearing is in the town of west antarctica it was previously delayed because of the coronavirus pandemic and 200 members of the church were held hostage for hours on july the 11th just west of johannesburg the standoff may have been motivated by a feud between Church Members correspondent for me the miller is joining us live from outside the courthouse the media good to talk to you again just take us through whats been going on there in the building. Very little has taken place so far it is a very slow process as you say there 43 suspects are appearing there applying for bail after they were arrested following that incident earlier in july and because of covert 19 restrictions and social distancing this is a drawn out process each applicant each application is being heard individually so this is happening one by one and so it may take a couple of days for the court to get through all of those suspects said the charges range from murder to position of illegal firearms as well as damage to property now of course this goes back to that incident earlier in the month where because of this apparent feud between 4 factions within the church the members of the church and high ranking leadership then had a fight that that there was quite violent and escalated on the property of the church. Where initially they had told people who live on the property to leave the church they then held someone hostage for a number of hours before police intervened and this really goes back to what appears to be a succession battle within the church once the former leader had passed away in 1908 it seems there wasnt a clear Succession Plan and since then theres been an Ongoing Court case to solve the issue of leadership within the church but it obviously hasnt been resolved adequately and we saw the violence earlier in the month we do know that a commission for the protection and promotion of cultural and religious rights has tried to intervene there mediating and at least 3 of the 4 factions involved saying they will try to build unity and try to work out what happens next within that church its very very complicated as a case put before the court the media is anyone speculating as to how long itll take until we get a verdict. Well it may take a long time given that were only looking at bail efficacious at the moment the trial is yet to start and we also know that the mediation process will take a number of weeks but we do know that often there are complaints around south africas Justice System in terms of how long things are prolong their number of persones so it really is unclear tour if this will be resolved anytime soon but i think what has been of interest to the people who are looking at this case is i suppose the commercialization of religion and the money that a church like this brings in we know that the former leader had in the states worth at least 26000000. 00 and this is where we see the incentive around the tensions within this church and also the violence that took place a few weeks ago kmita thank you very much from the middle of the reporting live from western area in south africa. He was shot 16 times in an attempted assassination and survived now after 3 years in exile he turns in in tanzania and Opposition Leader to do list has returned home he plans to challenge the current president john michael fully in the elections in october his return comes Opposition Leaders accuse michael fully of stifling dissent is some of what he said before he left germany but the biggest thing has been there and told suffering. The killings of political leaders attacks on political leaders abductions disappearances torture illegal persecution of Opposition Leaders and activists in courts of law you know with tram tab framed charges we have gone through have the opposition generally and my Political Party in particular we have gone through had during this 5 years. Ok lets bring in candy qui yue she is an independent political analyst she joins us now from moshi in tanzania i can declare you welcome to the news are so mistily sue going back home is either very brave or slightly stupid perhaps given why he left in the 1st place which do we think it is. Hes just that arrived or a bunch of hogarth. Over there well coming from the team in by and the citizens plunge was very encouraging soul who allowed us the ball to go to bat punched with him and there are so many people which is really nice and good to see so clearly him being there will give the opposition a shot in the arm it will give them a lift a Political Boost perhaps even what is he trying to achieve and how will he capitalize on that. Our 1st of all he is our president ial. Ok not if president ial candidate but is a president ial aspirant so he hopes the party will nominate him to be the candidate in the october elections and him coming back to have this guy with all that tissue that gave me ringback due to what happened to him 3 other girls and due to the fact that theres been a lot of oppression against. Opposition political leaders opposition Political Party leaders as well as opposition but we have seen a very interesting trend which is that used to. Lease. But is which is actually an irony because theyre more they have been struggling with the gap still gaining political space it seems that the more they have been able to come back to themselves think through their Party Organization in the actual if thankfully most to sion and i think today what you have seen in the airport we saw many people going to to see where the Party Clothes being very bored to actually go of there be spite the Police Warning yesterday that nobody should be go in there are still many people went but it was bravery and that showed that the actually the Opposition Party and it but them out which is a party that to the little belong is actually very strong the fact that it would all demos people it could be very resilient to what is happening in their last 4 years these things are very positive sign there are election shared jewels for october has he been told you will be allowed to stand i mean will he be given the time and the space to go through that democratic process. Thats thats a very interesting question and actually its a question that all of the are asking and issue least tend to do i think a few days ago when he was filling in belgium when he was preparing you was also interviewed and he was asked that vote if there would be free and Fair Election in fact equal are given that there have been a lot of concern about the Electoral Commission its been there been well lot of close Senate Demand that we should have a free and independent Electoral Commission in the country which is not because of their horror and so they look the commission other. President ial appointees so. They cannot be neutral and this is a huge problem so all of the question is not whether well have a free election where the process of selection will be smaller its been experienced in previous years so even leads toward the bad to say or here we know that were not going to have fair lectured but are we going to survive because even as you see today being there. And the airport chairman of the pact people as lucille their bluff limpy this is a question that the country we need to ask how do we get here because this people were out since the early feet. As they go but today theyre both limping and many others who have been arrested there are others who dont snore ok thank you for joining us i cant equate the. Intensity. Thank you very much. Time fueled with a full cost heres everson thanks very much pedro would have a look at the rains in asia seasonal downpours and they are still ongoing and theres still plenty of flooding to look at lots of clout there into the northeast of india and indeed into ponds.

On cutting the cost this week rich countries cornering the market for covert 19. 00 vaccines but what does that mean for the worlds poor well look at the coronavirus treatments offer for low income nations and check out the real price of developing films countering the cost on aljazeera. A diverse range of stories from across the globe from the perspective of our networks journalists on aljazeera. A career reporting to the world though i did hear one journalist documents life beyond the headlines. That certain stories can change us in the easiest cleaves use to it when you know you need history. To change anyone a unique journey into what it means to be human the things we keep a witness documentary on aljazeera. Welcome back weve got a developing story for you here on the news the Israeli Army Says theres been a security incident along the northern border with lebanon in the sheba farms region yet to go into precise detail of what is going on what has gone on but israelis living along the border they have been told to stay indoors. The israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on twitter said this we are constantly monitoring whats happening on our northern border we maintain the policy i said years ago we will not allow iran quotes to establish itself on our border lebanon and hezbollah will be responsible for any attack that comes out of lebanon against us the i. D. F. Is prepared for any scenario he said we work in all arenas for israels security close to our borders and far from our borders are a force it joins us live from west jerusalem so harry is one of those situations where we dont know more than we do know it is an ongoing situation there is something going on in that significant border area. Yes i mean we are getting some details being reported although not officially by the Israeli Military they just said that there was a security incident and they instructed people in the area to remain indoors saying all nonessential traffic should remain off the roads but we are getting reports from israeli media from reporters at the scene and there are 2 things that are being talked about one and a tented infiltration by hezbollah fighters into territory on the israeli side in the occupied Golan Heights in the shape of farms area a military controlled area by the Israeli Military and that those that group of fighters was prevented and fired upon by the Israeli Military another report that there was an antitank missile fired at an Israeli Military jeep now again and that is just a report were getting no outside confirmation of that but so far there has been no reporting of casualties at least on the israeli side and this does appear to be the response that the Israeli Military and government had been warning of the potential response from hezbollah after one of its fighters was killed inside syria last week in what was attributed to be an israeli airstrike and would it be fair to say harry that for mr netanyahu hezbollah is iran and iran is hezbollah. Yes thats very much his line that hezbollah is an iranian proxy and that there is a concern security concerns are israel that hezbollah with its tens of thousands of rockets inside lebanon is already a threat and the activities inside syria by iran things that the Israeli Military needs to prevent and take out and this is all part of one unified Security Threat against israel as for the potential of this to flare up further that really remains somewhat in the balance the likelihood is that there is now an assessment going on on both sides as to exactly what has taken place the reports are from the scene that the situation has now quiet and again certainly israel is in the grip of a 2nd wave of coronavirus with major protests against israeli Prime Minister as part of the economic fallout of that lebanon as we know is in a huge economic hole at the moment and there have been a message conveyed from hezbollah that there appeared to be no atmosphere for a wider conflict so if there arent substantial casualties on either side of this exchange that it might be as was the case a little under a year ago when there was another such exchange across the border there that both sides might feel that this is enough but we have to wait and see exactly what details come out we are waiting for hezbollah statement and indeed an Israeli Military statement to try and clear up some of those details ok harris the moment thank you very much air force at that in west jerusalem. China has officially closed the u. S. Consulate in the southwestern city of chengdu beijing ordered the shutdown on friday after washington demanded chinas consulate in Houston Texas cease operations saying it had been involved in espionage katrina new reports now from chengdu. After 35 years of officially building ties between beijing and washington further evidence of a fraying relationship the u. S. Consulate in chengdu has officially been shut down Chinese Government stuff entered the consulate shortly after it was vacated on monday morning beijing says the move was provoked by washington which rewards. What china has done conforms to International Law the basic norms of International Relations and customary diplomatic practices the Current Situation in china u. S. Relations is not what china wants to see and the u. S. Is responsible for all of this we once again urge the u. S. To immediately retract its wrong decision and create necessary conditions to bring the bilateral relationship back on track authorities cordoned off the area keeping International Media and the public away while official vehicles moved in and out of the compound days before consulate staff gathered their belongings and left. The u. S. Consulate general shared this video shortly after confirming the missions closure we will miss you forever read its last line. The closure of the u. S. Consulate here in china a wave of nationalism and sentiment over the past few days. In this area and shortly after this building was vacated people came waving chinese saying long live the peoples republic of china. Being chinese we must keep our dignity america has care.

Accusations that the chinese consulate in texas that closed on friday was used for spying and stealing intellectual property the closure of the 2 consulates is the most dramatic diplomatic incident take place between the 2 countries in decades and many fear the damage will be difficult to reverse katrina you aljazeera to do. Ok lets go back to the breaking story. Occupying thinking time here on the news on us to show you the latest live pictures coming to us from the Israeli Border area we have one report and we cant substantiate this yet because it is just one report lebanons hezbollah firing allegedly according to one report we have a guided missile at an israeli vehicle in this incident or an ongoing incident that has taken place or is taking place in the sheba farms area thats according to lebanese sources being quoted by the Reuters News Agency well stay with these pictures and well talk to is in a correspondent who is in the southern lebanese city of sidon hi there welcome to the news what are your sources there telling us to whats going on there. Well peter we are awaiting a statement by the Lebanese Armed group has a lot 5 that is expected to be released shortly you mentioned that Lebanese Security sources saying are being quoted as saying that this in fact the security incident which was reported by the israeli army was the in need. 5 pack an attack that started to raise the. So were still waiting for confirmation penchant really has been building along the border for the past few days ever since. Hezbollah fighter was in what was simply to be an israeli air strike in syria when that. 9 many believe that it was only about 9 time for husband retaliated against us because the secretary d has 5 promised to do so by here in fact he made good on his promise last year when to hezbollah fighters were killed in an israeli strike in syria but when that happens on here to there is the hezbollah we probably a. Place in inside israel proper what is really significant this time around is if indeed was a hezbollah attack that took place in the form an area which is considered you said the piece of territory d lies in an intersection between the israel lebanon syria Israel Considers the heart of the Golan Heights the syrian Golan Heights lebanon considers it part of the territory and the very fact that it was never as a parent who owns the territory was result of this because lebanon and syria have not seen market their border so carrying out an operation in the shabab farms where they could be seen as a message from hezbollah that we do not want to escalate the situation any further what is also. Interesting is last night the deputy secretary general of hezbollah 5 off the mark. 9 and on one of the soldiers in the local channel and what he said was this part of an escalation of 8 violence between the hezbollah and israel despite the increase of service quite clearly what he said was the aftermath here does not in the case of war unlike the atmosphere for him then that he would run so a series of from hezbollah that they do not want to escalate the situation so just to be clear zina as were looking at these pictures and youre talking us through what may happen the big variable here now is who does what when as a reaction if you will so it doesnt escalate into a tit for tat literally firing warning shots at each other. Well that is true the United Nations the interim force in southern lebanon this peacekeeping force they released a statement saying that theyre contacting both sides trying to deescalate tension we have to wait to see 1st of all if this was a hezbollah attack and how israel this was a response what we understand is that the israeli army fires a number of artillery shells and to the car shaba farms area but its open space its not the populated area is this the end of this is this the end of the operation if if if if indeed it is the end of the operation then then its clear that neither side wants to set plays any further so theres still we still have to wait and see but weve seen this a lot here when the when the hezbollah stand targets an israeli a vehicle. Israel did fire a barrage of artillery into southern lebanon on the villages but the whole incident was contained in a matter of hours so it seems from what were d seeing that neither side wants this situation to escalate any further but like you said the time will only tell whether or not this this is the case ok as in if they close carry on working the story for us as soon as you know anything else to come back to us here on the news on. Sudans Prime Minister has promised to send troops into west fool for the un report to the massacre of more than 60 people hundreds of armed men targeted mastery village in neighboring areas on saturday burning homes to the ground the attack is the latest in a series of reported incidents over the last week highlighting the projected c of the security situation in that region hit morgan joins us live now from the sudanese capital talked to tipper welcome back good to talk to again so what do you think is going on in darfur and crucially whats the government doing about yours. Well peter weve seen people in darfur staging sit ins over the past few weeks demanding improved security situation and now the government says that at least 60 people have been killed 54 wounded and lets remember that the area itself is a conflict zone there are talks going on in the south and the capital juba right now between various armed groups and the Transitional Government to try to bring peace to the region but then there are also ethnic tensions and tribal tensions that are involved in this insecurity or this violence that is going on right now in the region the United Nations says that from the 19 up to the 26. 00 of this month alone there were at least 7 incidents of violence that led to loss of lives dozens of people injured people of course have been demanding the government for improved security situation most of those people in darfur have been displaced from the conflict that started in 2003 and has yet to end they say that when they go to their farms and try to farm and try to resume their lives as back to normal or as normal they get attacked by armed men some of them from the Paramilitary Rapid support forces and others men that they cannot identify so theyre demanding better security situation now this has prompted the government to hold an emergency meeting its defense and Security Committee yesterday held an emergency meeting and said that they are ready to use force to protect the lives of the civilians in daraa for weve also seen clashes happening in the Eastern Region over the past few months its very quiet at the moment but it happens to be on and off so it looks like this insecurity is around the country and the government needs to take action thats what the civilians are saying weve seen the civilian governors being sworn in just a few hours ago theyve pledged to obviously to put the interests of the civilians 1st and to try to bring stability saying that it is part of the demands of the protesters that brought about this Transitional Government thanks very much of a muslim are joining us live from our offices in part too. West African Leaders have called for a lasting solution to whats going on in mali the deepening political crisis there heads of the regional bloc accosts are holding a Virtual Summit to defuse tensions between money and governments and the opposition after previous failed attempts ok lets take a quick look now at the reasons behind this unrest in mali now tens of thousands of people have been protesting for 6 weeks demanding the president. Steps down the protests are led by the m 5 movement of opposition activists they accuse the president mr of corruption mishandling the economy and failing to improve security the regional body echo are sent mediators last week but m 5 rejected its proposals to form a unity government nick carter joins us live now from dhaka in senegal nick good to talk to you again is echo warse implicitly signaling here that mr keita should stay in the job. Exactly thats what theyre saying its a red line that they were that they said that they would not cross that theyre not willing to cross which is the protesters are asking for kate to be removed from office but thats not where it is willing to go the west african body says it needs to follow the constitution in the constitution of mali says that he has been legitimately elected into office and therefore he cannot be removed from office now he just took to this Video Conference made a few statements pointed the finger towards the opposition mainly to the depot he says that at stake in mali is is the survival of the country to ensure that it stays a secular state and thats what president the muslim president. Is saying that we had the president coast who took to the Conference Call saying that he will not accept any disorder in mali and there is were hearing some. Possibility that there might be some sanctions put in place against members of the opposition this and 5 movement that are leading the demonstrations against president variables are kate that well hear from a statement from them from the ecowas body later on today but whats clear is that the ecowas the west african body are siding with with with president there is discussion about the Prime Minister boosie say who has really been been critical in the last in the last month or so when. Commandos were deployed against the opposition firing live rounds and resulting in 12 People Killed and scores injured peter what was the big issue for the. People what was the big issue with the idea of getting a place in government unity government. Well they dont want to National Unity government they want to Transitional Government they want to see. It go he they say that hes in breach of article 37 of the constitution when he used Security Service as security personnel against. An armed civilians they also accuse the president and his family of corruption now the key to all of this negotiations is of course the french who have 4000 troops on the ground now they havent explicitly been involved in the negotiation process they say they dont want to be involved or show that they are involved in the affairs of a former colonial country but they are backing the eko laws mediation efforts implicitly backing president kate and now we need to see how mali and how bob michel is reacting the protest movement is reacting to all these negotiations later on today when the will release a statement peter makes things very much correspondent in senegal.

A 9th consecutive beckoned for the stars of events as they march down to face time doria the turin club had a frustrating time lately having only one once in their last 5 matches and they didnt have the best start on sunday losing brazilian start then early because of a head injury and. They needed a pick up and its not hard to guess who they got that i strike deep into 1st half injury time from none other than christiane or rinaldo giving you a delayed. The portuguese was also instrumental in their 2nd goal which was slotted away by federico burn the day she. Eventis were finally looking back to their dominant best and to make things easier they were helped by some reckless tackles the 1st saw some doria reduced to 10 men while the 2nd resulted in a penalty it meant were naldo had the chance to bag another goal. But he surprised everyone and maybe even himself with his fluffed effort. In the end it didnt matter event to seal it to nil to complete a successful defense of their crown prompting celebrations that seemed unimaginable when syria was shut down in march because of the pandemic in almost all annoyed by the money.

Qatar has expressed interest in hosting the olympic and Paralympic Games as early as 2032 the cut Olympic Committee announced on monday that it had formally submitted their request to join a noncommittal dialogue with the i. O. C. Its not the 1st time the country has been drawn to staging the multi sport event qatar had an unsuccessful bid to host 20162020 games it has however stage a number of Major International events including last years world athletics championship and it will also host the 2022 football world cup well we spoke to Simon Chadwick professor of eurasian sport industry earlier who explained why qatar might be an attractive choice for the international Olympic Committee. As we know for several years now cats are has been an important event destination for sports and this is very much bound up in country strategy within cats are so having failed in 2022 to attract the. The olympics i think it was inevitable that sooner or later we get another bit coming along and of course youve got to keep in mind that cattle will have the infrastructure in place and well be looking for a legacy from the hosting of the world cup in 2022 that weve always got to consider is these these are going to be Olympic Games post cove 8 and we already know where 2028 will be we dont know whether some or 22032. 00 games will be and given that this is post code with a slightly to be a big emphasis on cost efficiency so using countries using event using venue use that already exists or is not to impose a cost pressure and so i think in those terms katz aris is already ideally placed to be able to bid for the hosting rights one would hope that by the time bids close and the eventual decision will will be made we will have reached some kind of solution to the blocking its. Clearly this this this is been going on for some time now and and if it was to continue longer it would be a very challenging situation and i think the i. O. C. Would be uncomfortable i think being drawn into a geo political spot and so one would hope therefore that catherine saudi arabia can find a solution can find a way through this situation. The reigning champ is the serato raptors are looking good ahead of the n. B. A.
