Down in rome. One of the best ways is it take an unplanned bath and shower. Yes trying to keep cool as the heat rices across europe. J. And all the sports news including Chelsea Supporters banned. Hello, he defied his countrys constitution andifier violent protest but burundis president is on course to win a third consecutive term in office. His spokesman said that he would not oppose the formation of a National Unity governments which is the demand of Opposition Party. Well, early figures suggest as early as 74 of people who could vote in the election did despite the threat of violence. The result is expected on thursday. But the u. S. E. U. And African Union said they will not recognize that result. We have more on how unity government made be received by voters. Officials say that the votes across the country have been counted. Not the only interesting thing happening in burundi right now. People are hearing that the president would not be opposed to a National Government. So the key question for all those who are waiting for results, they have been through weeks and months of violence and instability, will they agree to a government of National Unity . They agree to work together. So will the government of National Unity work . We saw it brought up in kenya in 2008, and in dib babb way in 2009, but critics of this kind of set up say that they feel that the Opposition Party would enter this agreement. It seems all the key players seem to think that the dialogue is the only way out of this current political instability. The key thing to watch now is how quickly this National Government is going to be set up, and who will be in it, and will it work . Specializing in the Great Lakes Region thanks for coming in to the studio. Why do you think it is now that theyre not opposed to an unity government . I think in the position of strength, and im sure hes ready to redistribute jobs. And because he knows it will be a goal now. They said that they wont recognize the result when its announce odden thursday, what sort of effects could in a have on burundi . I think it could have a very bad affect because 50 of the state budget went to the burundi state, and it so it will have an effect on the economic growth. This isolation is a pretty bad effect. It will be a process before the election even took place. Its a country that is revealing itself. After ten years stability. And we can lack of trust in the population. The people have been traumatized by the war. So the situation is quite fragile. Even before there is any violence. We saw the violent protests in the run up to the election, what is the likelihood that that violence is going to continue an get worse. Will that depend on what they do with the unity government . Some member of the opposition. However, we have to see what extent the opposition organizational capacity to really to resort to violence. Theyre tightening the political state. They have to re to see to what extent theyll be able to endure. The fact that the African Union came out and said were not going to recognize this result. The africa union does not do that very often with one of its own countries. No, its interesting here. On the other hand the point with the African Union they want to to run a third term as well. I think on one hand there is a lot of members who want to stay in power so theyre not in a good position to give advice. Its good to have your thoughts. Thank you. South sudans president ial spokesman has dismissed a new report that claims that Government Troops and allied fighters committed a offensive between april and june this year. 22million people are pleased to have fled their homes. Human rights watch interviewed more than 170 survivors and witnesses. The group documented 60 unlawful killings of civilians including women and children. Rape was widespread and people were burned alive. Some civilians were abducted. Others were shot as they tried to flee and then crushed by government tanks well, a spokesperson for south sudans president. Theyhe said that the human rights report is baseless. If youre trying to implicate the government, trying to implicate the Government Forces youll only against sentence communities who will always try to blame the government, and youll find there is only one. But the truth is that the government soldiers are not committing these atrocities because these are the very people who are protecting and liberating these countries. Well bring them and punish any individual who has been involved in this incident. South sudans president ial spokesman claims that the allegations in the reports are baseless. How confident are you that the witnesses you spoke to were telling the absolute truth . Im totally confident. Weve been working on this with south sudan for 20 years. Weve been frequently on the ground throughout the country. Documenting allegations of human rights on all side of the conflict, and im absolutely confident that my colleague who is are experienced researchers have pulled together very crate information about the scale and the atrocities that have taken place. They have carried out what is happening in unity state. How if at all does your report differ from what they have found . I think for the most part our Research Findings are extremely similar. Obviously theyre certainly interviewed people different from those who we interviewed. But the nature of the attacks and the facts that were still seeing deliberate attacks on civilians, were not seeing here people who were caught up in fighting between armed groups. The time and time again were seeing armed men from the government and allied militias come in. They were attacking the women and elderly in an effort to pursue their aims. So a lot of information in common. And both u. N. And Human Rights Watch we have found an extremely brutal level of atrocityies between civilians. There are horrific allegations. Human Rights Groups are calling for an arms embargo and sanctions. But how effective do you think they would be in actually stopping more violence of this nature . What is absolutely clear since the outbreak of the war in december 2013 none of the interventions by the International Community, the u. N. The African Union and others have succeeded in bringing a halt to atrocityies to civilians. Many are dying. Many are raped and as you said many are displaced. Its vital that we step up in the international response, and there are three things that were pushing for that we believe can make a real difference. An arms embargo. Sanctions against those most responsible for the crimes were seeing endless impunity and there is no doubt for us that this is just fueling a cycle of violence and further violence that will not end until such time as those responsible. Many in the International Community backed its independence. I myself worked in south sudan in the 1990s and like many people i was excited to see the birth of a new country and felt that the southern sudanese had an opportunity to establish themselves free from the repression of the government. But unfortunately that is not been the case. The fact that there have been continued violations of human rights have taken place with no justice, no accountability and complete impunity. Great to have you with us from new york. Thank you. Two suicide bombs were detonateed in the battle for control of iraqs anbar province.

Ashton carter is on the third stop of his middle east tour. We have this update from the jordanian capital. U. S. Secretary of state ash carter has achieved mixed results in his middle east tour. Middle east is opposed to the deal with iran. Saudi arabia cautiously welcoming the deal with king salmon saying that he was concerned with what he described as iranian interference. Whatever the case mr. Carter is going to go on to qatar and iraq. Qatar, of course, has similar concerns as saudi arabia does about irans role and there are concerns that iran plays a destabilizing force in iraq and syria and lebanon. But his reception in iraq is likely to be very different. Iraq and iran are very close and have been since the 2003 invasion. The two countries are working very closely together against the threat posed from the Islamic State of iraq and the levant group. But again there are sectarian concerns in iraq and in carter, no doubt will reaffirm the u. S. Military commitment to the region and, indeed his commitment to countries like israel, saudi arabia qatar and jordan. Here that deal is a good thing and could possibly bring some calm to the unrest weve seen over the years. A Memorial Service has been held in texas for sandra bland.

Morninger porn sites have risen by more than hundred . Online child abuse is difficult to fight. Often abuseers target children from impoverished communities.

Wethere is no safety here. This is our job. Despite the risks a worker will go back into the sewers every eight to ten why days. Its difficult to describe just how terrible and overwhelming the smell it. Just being this close for even a few seconds is nauseating. There are 8,000 workers who regularly go down sewers like these.

At his home he said that lack of education means cleaning sewers is the only job that he and others can do to support their family despite what it does to them.

A new drug may slow progression of alzheimers disease. There has been a slow down in mental decline when taking the drug compared to taking a placebo. With us now is head of political alzheimers disease your research in u. K. The reason why this drug is so interesting and exciting is the fact that it slows down the progression of alzheimers disease as opposed to just treating symptoms. Thats right. I think the watch words tonight is cautious optimism. I think what weve seen is this developed. It does slow progression for people in the early stages of alzheimers. These are interim results and we wont know for certain if it has these effects until we see the reports. And until that time we wont know for certain that this is having the effect and if it does show the same results that we see today in 18 months time then we really will have a breakthrough. A drug that is modifying the disease, slowing it down. What is interesting about this drug, it was only when they looked at it and tried it out on patients with the very first signs of alzheimers that it was shown to actually work . Thats right. It was threat posed was a future in 2012. It failed to reach its inpoint but when they went to reexamine those data they looked at it and realized that it was potentially having affect in the early stages. That caused them to continue the trial in patients, in that early stage. And these are the results that we see today. So much effort trying to find the treatment, an effective treatment. If you put it in in terms of one break fruit. Weve seen a number of failures over the years. And that has sent advised the drugssent advised the the reasons for those failures, the plain is a complex organize the challenge of defeating alzheimers is akin to putting man on the moon. That means that complexity is that its a very complicated disease and the drugs needed are very complicateed. We need to continue the investment and continue research to now forward. Can you put it in context for us . This disease seems to be effecting more and more people presumably because people are living long. Thats why its so important. Thats right.

Sweltering conditions are continuing to cause problems for people in parts of europe, and there is no respite at night for many either. Its not only people who are struggling in this heat. Cooling down in the heat. Ice is on the menu in romes sue. Animals are struggleing to deal with the heatwave that has hit europe in the past few weeks. Humans are not coping so well either. June was the hottest on record and 2010 is on its way to being the hottest year ever recorded. The length the heatwave in europe is extraordinary. It started in july and went up to 40 degrees but because of the high him it feels humidity it feels like 50. We dont know when it will end. One way to cool off is take ing a bath or shower. In serbia, locals escape the heat by dipping in the Mineral Spring while in spain locals struggle to cope with the third heatwave of the summer. Back in rome the Civil Protection agency distributes thousands of bottled water every day. But that only offers a temporary respite from the heat even at night the temperatures do not go below 28 degrees. The only way way of relief is through fans and air conditioners. Al jazeera. Roam.

In just three days it has become the most famous shark encounter since jaws. The footage of mick fanning has enthralled people from around the world. But for the surfer it feels personal. More people surf in australia than anywhere else. All 20 attacks in australia so far this year. The only that proved fatal was on a surfer. Sports writer will swanson who himself was still out on wednesday wrote in a up in saying that the thrill of knowing that you might be killed is part of the appeal. If there is a dark shark attack and very next morning we were all serving in the same spot. It was frightening and spooky, but that fear and that spookiness was part of the attraction for sure. Although the number of shark attacks is small, in australia it is rising, five were killed in 12 months to february. To avoid being next is the common topic on the beach. One answer, bait and kill the sharks. Thats what they did in 2014 after an attacks. But conservationists were outraged, and the toll on big sharks are now on hold. They can trap and kill other harmless sea life tagging can alert people when a known big one gets close to shore. Aerial surveillance also helps. But its all piecemeal. An electrical post that sharks dislike can be fixed to surfboards or motorized craft. I have no doubt that youll see spark shields. If people see sharks in the environment theyre taking a calculated if tiny risk. There is one way to guarantee safe surf. Dont get in the ocean in the first place. Even if the waves in the pool arent quite the same. Andrew thomas, al jazeera. Andrew thomas has the right idea there. That would what i would be doing doing. Thanks, lee.
