Every channel and square memorial. And a hint of life in the clouds above venus scientists make a startling discovery in experiments conducted out of pure curiosity. And im we are starting with all of the days sports news chelsea are off to a winning start in the English Premier League and version dortmund power their way into the german cup 2nd round with a 5 nil beating up. So that they spend a week finding shelter wherever they can but hundreds of refugees are moving into a new tent city on the greek on the flexibles has been hastily prepared by the greek government and by aid agencies after a fire swept through the giant moronic camp that was home to around 12000 people of greece wants to move most of them into the new settlement over the next few days but theres been a resistance from those who fear they wouldnt be allowed to leave the camp and they have been protests by others demanding to be moved to the greek mainland while in the past there are reports that some european nations have agreed to help lets unravel all of this we can speak to stephanie live in about steps 1st of all where people had been reluctant to move as i say but there has been some more movement in some numbers now. Its the most movement that weve seen so far the certainly not huge numbers nick but maybe out around 200 or so so far coming in to the new camp and this is because the ministry of migration theyve started more of a p. R. Move lets say yesterday they handed out leaflets to the refugees in various different languages telling them that this place coming here was the only way the only option they had a to have shelter food and water medical care but also their option to get off the island because only those that were inside this camp and registered would be able to continue their aside in processing their paperwork process there still remains a lot of skepticism that i have to say that were definitely not seeing. A large number of people but you are seeing much more as i said than weve seen before because they believe that once they enter that camp theyre going to be locked up theyre not going to be allowed to leave theyll be no movement and thats what theyre afraid of and they theres a lot of rumors about the fact perhaps theyre taking the refugees phones away want to go into the camp doesnt seem to be happening but of course theres a lot of uncertainty a lot of mistrust a lot of people still remain the majority of people still remain sleeping on the streets nic theres a road just down there where they are and thats where you see them trickling in now when they come to the camp but the majority still remain certainly not here in this camp on the streets it is sense that for the refugees just one side of the story the other side being the residents of the island of those with those people who live there and theyve been living with refugees for some years now one of they say about these latest developments. Well theyve taken it as an opportunity to highlight their frustration that theyve been hosting this population for so very long that its had an effect on the economy here on their livelihoods and on the Tourism Industry and they say that enough is enough and that the burden needs to be shared not just by the small island so one villager we were talking to yesterday saying that this is a tale of 2 tragedies but there tragedy is one that isnt empathize with lets say his forgotten i mean weve been spent some time in some villages in the evening where they were telling us that some of them will patrol their lab and all of trees this is an island known for making all the voile all the trees are everywhere because you know you have refugees now with nowhere to go who are taking shelter in these private labs will saval in tears yesterday morning clearing up a lot of the rubbish thats left behind so its a very difficult situation for both sides and of course it has reignited the debate on the european level at an International Level turn the spotlight back on these people whove been largely forgotten right so a little bit earlier we have been hearing in the past some european nations have no agree to what more do we know about. Yes it seems that germany germany a country that a lot of these refugees want to go to its the country they will. Whenever you speak to people on banners theyll be calling Angela Merkel it really is sort of the holy grail when it comes to countries that the refugees or the aid to head to germany she needs to have now said that it will take a 1500. 00 extra refugees and theyre saying that that will particularly be families and women with children they have already accepted 1250. 00 minors of course is around 400 minors unaccompanied minors who are let off the island off to the to the camp down vogue area and also a part of me has agreed to take 20 more minors off to the 50 that theyve already agreed on these are small numbers when you talk about the Bigger Picture the fact that you have. This sort of limbo process of paperwork it was already slow it was too slow for these people but now certainly with the fires burning the county that that process is slow down again so i think we are seeing were going to see that the president of your council here later today it has as i say reignited the debate that the burden needs to be shared is something greece is always said they are a border guard to their front line countries so to speak when it comes to the arrival of refugees of migrants and theyd certainly say that they need more help from the International Community and to deal with the people president ial michel of the European Council on his way to lesbos we understand stuff thanks for that. Thanks a lot well at least 18 refugees are presumed to have drowned after their boat capsized in the mediterranean the u. N. Migration agency says libyas coast guard intercepted 3 boats altogether on monday recovered 2 bodies in a total of 45 survivors a majority of them are from egypt and iraq or. U. S. President donald trump has been branded a climate mist as wildfires burning across the west coast in america have become a hot political issue he visited california for briefings on the growing disaster insisting that scientists are wrong and that it will get khuda democratic rival joe biden accuses trump of failing to acknowledge global warmings effects on the wildfires which have killed at least 35. 00 people and destroyed thousands of. Construct as this report. Exhausted firefighters are doing what little they can to battle the monster inferno was consuming towns and homes and lives. Mondays drier conditions and gusty winds meant no respite as nearly 100 fires continue to burn across 12 states get these otherworldly scenes are New California has now experiencing several summers of severe wildfires realizing predictions of a climate report released by the white house in 2018 but President Trump who flew to california for fire briefings continues to deny manmade Climate Change exists it will start getting cooler but i will just you just watch i wish science or anybody else but. I dont think science you know is actually trump has repeatedly blamed the wildfires on democrats accusing them of mismanaging forest lands in western states as the election nears hes dug into the pro fossil fuel policies of his Administration Former Vice President joe biden who seeking to replace trump in the white house challenge his record in a speech from delaware we have 4 more years of trumps climate denial how many suburbs will be burned in wildfires how many suburban neighborhoods will have been flooded out how many suburbs will have been blown away in super storms if you give a climber an arsonist 4 more years in the white house why would anyone be surprised we have more america blaze. But for the americans suffering fires in the west and new hurricane threats in the southeast the Candidates Campaign promises offer little consolation as destruction becomes the new normal. Castro aljazeera. So thats california in the United States the fire season is also a lot worse than usual in brazils ponton a lot region the Worlds Largest tropical wetland is burning at a record pace there have been more than 10000 fires across the pentagon since the start of september thats 3 times the figure compared to last year 16 percent of the region has been burned and the regions worst drought in 47 years is make it harder for firefighters to control the font it is one of the most biodiverse ecosystems on the planet and it is being threatened by the fires now its home to hundreds of animal species dozens of them endangered all right lets take this on we can speak now to tom burke whos chairman 3rd generation environmentalism and joins us live by skype from london. In north and south america the devastation is all too plain to see tell us 1st of all despite what donald trump says how Climate Change has affected these fires its making the considerably worse right. Yes it is indeed and we are increasingly understanding why that is because in a warmer atmosphere you have more water evaporates from the ocean and down watch it get back so you increase the loss again with switch or just cycles through the system and that means exactly as were saying that dry areas get right back and when jerry has get well here weve all straight through because weve had extraordinary floods in china for instance this year as well as the fire so that iraq and all the rest but thats exactly what science is telling us will happen is actually happening its not a picture of problem instead of now problem that can only get worse we dont know a lot or so mr trumps view the this is a case in california of poor Forest Management is completely wrong. Yes i think about President Trump on science hes completely consistent just as when he was told the virus was dangerous and he should act on it he said the science is wrong hes saying exactly the same because of Climate Change he sang the science is wrong and that means instead of doing something he does nothing and peoples lives are lost and peoples lives just rot thats a consistent and actually interestingly enough not just of president john but by and large with authoritarian leaders in many parts of colleagues even on either side. And it is not just the offices that it has the west bend the arctic is melting in the National Hurricane center is tracking what is it 8 hearkens 8 storms this very members been a record hurrican years so far the effects to date on and oh yes yes thats right and these are just really hard and areas of the storm to come if we dont act very violently i think as you say the its not change its now the 2nd time in history that there have been as many times storms as there are at the moment in the atlantic and that since about 18 they started recording as in about the 18th fiftys so were getting very clear message from the planet through the scientists about the need to act urgently and its really very damaging to peoples prospects when leaders like President Trump simply deny the science in order to avoid having to say now of course tom 2020 was supposed to be a pivotal year for progress in fighting the Climate Crisis with a major Climate Summit which is perspective on that later this year in the u. K. Its all been foiled by the pandemic how much of a setback is that. Actually i think in the current circumstances its probably less of a setback that it might be a bit obvious to any years delay is about that late in. But frankly with the prospect that we might have a better president of the United States after the election in november then the langage match gary treats is that jobs that will have some progress made at that meeting i think donald trump falling out of but climate agreement and it would have weakened the prospects for an agreement this year weve got a somewhat better chance fortunately but something to thank fires for her well tom that appreciate your expertise in this thanks very much indeed tom but speaking to us that thank you. But im also ahead on the news hour including lighting up to learn millions of pakistani children had back to school for the 1st time in 6 months.

In jordan 12 the government allocated more than 1000000000. 00 to tackle the problem of flood but people here are wondering what have they done with that money so far theyve used it for these tents for those that have been displaced but with intensifying rains people here fear that these are temporary solution to a long term problem. Whilst the mayor of commerce are in senegal says Climate Change is responsible for the destruction angry residents blame the state for its lack of planning. Soon feels like a bad dream the states must come and build a sewage system so that they can be an end to the floods with months to go before the end of the rainy season has no intention of returning home fearing what is to come because hawke aljazeera the car.

While farm especially along the river nile often rely on some flooding during the rainy season to grow crops the flooding this year has been disastrous. To journey was alice field of maize groundnuts potatoes and pulses have been destroyed. Busy. The devastation has been almost everywhere in the country almost every region is afflicted and we can only pray to gold the government call and help everyone. Saddams minister of agriculture say suppose some teams across the country to investigate the full extent of the damage of the floods on crops some problems even as it passed to repair flood defenses alone live a mile to ensure it doesnt cost its banks again economic sanctions on sudan minutes foreign currency on ing some minimal so buying more food to plug the gap is not an option this week the government declared an economy can i just see following a dramatic plunge in the value of the National Currency the sudanese pound the labor minister who heads the countrys Disaster Management committees say they have a plan but are trying to do is basically see what we what needs to be done now and how can we approach the different i mean weve got basically been talking to world bank on how can we support an assessment so that they can help you know how can we try to support people. To go back to their lives you know and i think with you know i want to say that into the private Sector Civil Society everybody works to get their.

Well lets get more on these floods with morgan whos called to them and hit villages destroyed a 10100 have died tens of thousands of people displaced and now this threat of water borne diseases its a catastrophic situation. Yes indeed nic and unfortunately the forecast for the few coming days does not bode well for those who are affected the u. N. Has raised the number of those who have been affected by the 50 year flood from 500650000 so thats 150000 more people affected and its also predicting that heavy rainfall are expected in the if you can high land more rain falls are expected in the coming days in the southern and eastern parts of the country as well so the u. N. Says that the humanitarian situation at the moment is quiet dire they are risks of what of one diseases but more than that there are a lot of people who are still in desperate need of a Big Government has reached about 200000 people of those affected thats not even out of those who are in need of aid many of them without homes with that flood with the floods destroying more than 100000 homes so they are concerned about how these people who are affected will cope in the future if they say that if more rainfall if more flooding comes especially because theyve already lost everything they dont know where to go and the government is already facing an economic crisis it says that its turning to the world bank to the International Monetary fund and to partners to be able to help but theres so many destruction and so many people in need of aid and more forecasting that the situation is not likely to get. Better in the coming weeks but will get worse before it gets better right here yes a bad situation that could be about to get worse a hit thanks for that update who are moving them in call today. Now ivory coast top court has cleared the president to run for a 3rd term even though the legal limit is set to president. Successfully argued that in 2016 amendment to the constitution reset the number the court rejected 40 of the 44 candidates for next months election including the former president long Laurent Gbagbo and one time rebel leader tun Prime Minister sort of. More than 20 prodemocracy activists of appeared in a Hong Kong Court on charges over a vigil marking the 989. 00 Tiananmen Square massacre among them media tycoon jimmy la and joshua wall police say they took part in an authorised vigil on june the 4th young youll event has been for the 1st time in 30 years case has been adjourned until next month. Is following the Court Proceedings from hong kong. Some of the citys most prominent spread democracy activists are in court theyre facing charges that relate to the june 4th candlelight vigil which took place this year that vigil was banned by the government due to the corona Virus Outbreak but thousands of people showed up for her dont pressure d group no 7 and among the group is really tricky on his one of home comps most high profile democracy activists and he also organized one of the 1st 10 amendments more than 30 years ago he gave a speech before going into court and was defiant weird so far from burning to cameron market goes up every year with a term of art its no crikey. Where you 1st wrote we have no one for our right to express ourselves against fair market and to commemorate those who sacrifice the court confirmed that only 24. 00 off the 26. 00 defendants attended the hearing one is confirmed to be in exile nathan laws a close political ally of joshua one and hes known to be in the United Kingdom while the other is believed to have left the city now this case predates the National Security law which was imposed on july 1st by beijing but there is a general sense that in Hong Kong Freedom of speech freedom of expression is slowly being squeezed with a number of court cases against prodemocracy activists and protesters mollies that military leaders have made their 1st overseas visit since last months coup set to meet with west African Leaders in guyana the deadline for appointing an interim civilian government to expire june to has come up with a road map that could see the military leading a Transitional Government for 18 months its getting very late since we can join with interests whose life is from the 1st. From echo us need is several times since the coup in mali what will we expect now. Well the military leaders in mali meeting them for the 1st time like you said today to bring to the table what they were able to achieve in the last few days in talks with various sections of mali in society that include Civil Society Political Parties and opposition groups and specially of course them 5 are of people whove been that left protest against former president gbagbo because of kheta we understand and we heard from them but theyre not happy with the resolutions we spoke aljazeera spoke to one of the representatives of and 5 in that conference he said there were 5 working groups in that conference Consultative Forum they met suggestions and what was announced by the military leadership was totally different from what the group submitted and also dissolved would be seeing back and forth from empty 5 in the government what the military leaders are trying to going to convince ecorse leaders today by the way the meeting its underway in this hour to accept what they think is good for the region and good for mali as well it looks like they are more tilted towards having a president military president to lead the Transition Program which echoes in the 1st place didnt agree to they wanted a civilian Prime Minister a civilian president to lead the transition which should be a lot more than 12 months and the modern military leadership is looking for 18 months to conduct this transition period as Transition Program in mali so we want to see how they were how they are able to bridge that gap and also address the problems of the opposition and try back in money the rights of the military to say say what their plight is is good for mali but what about the people of mali what do they make of it all do you think. Well molly and a lot of my leaves are tired of these back and forth a lot of them some of them stated this during the conference they said theyre not happy and of protest theyre tired of all these but again if you look at the momentum the m 5 p. Movement had in the past few months you realize that there is a lot of work that needs to be done in mali the military must convince them in 5 to be part of the process otherwise this is going to be a very very difficult situation for both sides and i believe is what leaders of the Economic Community of West African States will and this will analyze before they agree to anything with the military leadership in mali robert thanks for that put into the picture the interest reporting from. Talking about you know jenny study by for the latest on harken salim whats going on is the story we talk about its really the soldiers queuing up the lines i know youre out there weve got one name left and it looks as if we might actually use that name at the next couple of days so yes its just been such a busy season this year and a rather dangerous one as well so let me show what we talk about here is a soft let me actually show you where all these storms all that they are and of course the same this time yesterday we havent yet reached the but we have now there it is vicki coming off the west coast of africa so it is they were all the activity is that the woman we will focus on is sunny but as i say theres one name left on this list of 2020 and that is wilford so if the next system develops and it could well be amongst this massive cloud here if that develops into will fade and theres another storm off to it then of course we start with the greek alphabet but as we go through tuesday very Little Movement in particular from sunday that is the one we need to focus in on because this is continuing to say its in the gulf of mexico im producing some tarantula amounts of rain it has just we can see a or should say the latest from the National Hurricane center shows that it has in fact we can it is still a powerful her command got winds sustained at 140 kilometers an hour although see gusting stronger than that it has been moving really to the west northwest very slowly but its become almost stationary so its just churning up the wall more says this is why it has lost some of its strength because it is losing some of the fuel the water now is quite cool but in actual fact is going to be about the flash floods and also the storm surge because its been sitting here for so long it is just depositing some torrential amounts of rain along those coastal areas this is g. M. T. Times that is expected to make long full on wednesday probably sort of mid to late morning and it looks as if it will be louisiana on towards areas of mississippi but of course as a say the flash floods and the flooding itself in fact you can see the forecast track of the next couple days and the amount of rainfall again the National Hurricane center nick they are saying this rainfall could be old historic proportion has been a tough year across the region doesnt have any thanks a lot.

U. S. President donald trump has visited california which has been hit by record wildfires he denied a link to Climate Change insisting that scientists are wrong and that it will get cooler rival joe biden called him a climate also missed. More than 20 prodemocracy activists who appeared in a Hong Kong Court on charges of a vigil mocking the 989. 00 tenement square massacre among them media tycoon jimmy lie and Joshua Walton that case has been adjourned until next month. All right the signing ceremony of the much tells you between israel and the u. A. E. Will take place at the white house and choose day protests against a deal are expected to be held in gaza and in front of a number of u. S. Israeli and amorality embassies that deal seeks to create new diplomatic and economic links between the countries thats my kind of report its a very different agreement from those reached between israel and its neighbors in the past. This is just the beginning a lot of things are happening and they happening very quickly people want to be involved in the announcement of the agreement came from President Trump in the white house surrounded by members of his administration including his adviser and son in law jared who played a major role in negotiating the agreement within days know was among those who boarded the person flight by israels National Airline between tel of the and the capital of the United Arab Emirates while this is a historic flight we hope that this will start with even more historic journey for the middle east and beyond. Much of the media reacted with hyperbole this is very valuable this is that when this could be seen as a major Foreign Policy win for the president definitely it is it does seem to be clear that its going to be something the president wants to use as part of his reelection but amidst all the hype some observers point out that the u. A. E. Is not a neighbor to israel and has never been at war with that their own merits and his relations were you know there was never going to between them. The signing of the israeli egyptian peace treaty following the camp david accords put an end to a state of war brokered by jimmy carter the deal between Menachem Begin and and while sadat was based on egypt recognizing the state of israel and israel withdrawing from the occupied sinai peninsula. In 1904 king hussein of jordan signed a peace treaty with israel which guaranteed jordan the restoration of but occupied land as well as an equitable share of water from the jordan river both treaties involve the return of the land occupied during war and both were intended as part of a Broader Initiative that would culminate in the creation of a palestinian state alongside that of israel. And ensure a lasting peace in the region the arab position had long been based on a saudi plan in 2002 endorsed again by the arab league in 2017 which offered recognition of israel if it withdrew from occupied land including East Jerusalem but last week the arab league declined to pass a palestinian resolution condemning what the trumpet ministration calls the abraham plan. Of Palestinian Foreign minister labeling this as a betrayal of the Palestinian People how do. We find ourselves in a position where we have to defend ourselves and our cause the situation turned upside down in a way where we become the troublemakers and the ones to blame because we dared to stand in front of the earthquake as we stood against the u. S. Administration when lead took our rights to renewed found President Trump announced on friday that bahrain would also be a signatory to the deal which confirmed the belief of many that from seeking a middle east peace the abraham plan was forging an alliance against a common enemy of gulf states and israel iran the Israeli Occupation of palestinian territory is unaffected and threatened the building of illegal settlements continuing unabated but in President Trump is the abraham plan is a Foreign Policy triumph that will be displayed in the weeks leading to the november election. Washington poison to russian Opposition Leader in development is awake alert and well enough to briefly leave his hospital bed hes been taken off a ventilator and is recovering at a hospital in Berlin Germany the government is urging russia to investigate after tests found that novell the was poisoned with a soviet era nerve agent french president has called it an assassination.

It was clear from the start of the meeting who is calling the shots by look at shanghai has proven to be a tough negotiator for puttin in the past this time he was taking note of what the russian leader had to say and making his case for moscow support. The main thing and i say it all the time is not to cross the line theres a red line and you are familiar with it you have to draw these lines in chechnya when youre a young president god forbid this happens in bela reuss there are certain red lines nobody has the right to cross. Was. The question get tried hard to convince put in that everything was under control but these images of a around a 100000 protesters on the streets of minsk on sunday tell a different story. Images put in does not want to see in russia. When we say what kind of domestic political events are happening in relation to the election in belarus you know our position well we want better relations to sort out the situation themselves without any tips or pressure from outside through dialogue they should come to a common decision. That kremlin says are look at us request its withdrawing the Russian Troops deployed at the belorussian border put in had earlier sat at those troops were ready to intervene in belarus if the situation got out of control russian leader reiterated that agreements between the 2 nations about military cooperation will remain in place its unclear what concessions look at shank are made to secure. Put in support the belorussian opposition says it regrets but since the decision to hold talks with look at sanka who they call it legitimized leader they also question the legality of any agreement between the 2 since the election result is lightly disputed many here are wondering if the embattled leader is ready to sacrifice himself or run a team of his nation just to remain in power and was. Well put in supports look at shankar for now the question is for how long he can enjoy the kremlins backing if anything the recent useful protests across the country not only in the capital meant grow in science they will be hoping that over time they compose wait the individuals and groups within the elite that have so far remained loyal to. Their higher loyalty lives with the people he risks turning a population that is well disposed towards russia into one that sees russia as. A leader and their reaching that they know wont no longer want to live under despite declaring his support for a look at shank up with and is still keeping his options open by endorsing constitutional reforms and barrels of russian leaders seems to accept that theres an expiry date even for a leader who has been in power for 26 years steps past an aljazeera many.
