Hello. We begin with the latest on the tensions between north and south kree y it looks like there is a last minute attempt to mediate the dispute. Right now its centered on the large loud speakers. We are hearing that top aides are due to meet. Harry is on the south korean border. It looks like both sides are looking for a way out of this. Reporter it does seem that way judging but the personnel that are going to be involved in the meeting. The deadline for the ending of loud speaker broadcast that north korea was saying, 5 00 p. M. Local time or 5 30. In the last couple of hours. The south korean president s office confirming that there would be a meeting an hour after that at 6 00 p. M. Local time here between the very senior military figure from north korea, the head of the Political Bureau of the Korean Peoples Army meeting the International Security adviser here in the south as well as the head of both countries essentially the ministries for korean relations will be attending this meeting. The question is how are they going to find common ground. South korea will stop the broadcasts if north korea admits to having carried out a land mine attack. North korea denies any attack. So the question is whether they can find some other route to try to deescalate the situation. As far as the Current Situation on the border itself, whats happening there . Reporter well, it still attains that 15,000 or so people have been evacuated from villages and districts very close to the border on the southern side. We are here at what is usually a fairly busy tourist site looking over north korea territory. There were some tourists, but they were told to get out shortly before 3 00 p. M. Local time. So that remains the situation. It is still an alert situation. The south Korean Military were quoted by the news agency today as saying that north korean artillery guns had been getting themselves into position to fire at the loud speakers. There was a show of force by u. S. And south korean fighter jets. Now its turning to these last minute talks due in a couple of hours time. Now, the white house says the deputy leader of isil has been killed. He was second in command to the groups leader. Reporter he was isils man in iraq and charged with overseeing all the provinces under the groups control, from military operationings, logistics and finance. His position means his death will be welcomed news in the white house which released this statement. He was an isis councilmember. He was a primary coordinator for moving large amounts of weapons, explosives, vehicles and people between iraq and syria. His death will impact isils operations. He was an al qaeda operative. When he came in after our invasion, then he joined isil as did a lot of the al qaeda group. Al qaeda told isil not to be so horrendous and they broke off. He was killed on august 18. This isnt the first time the u. S. Claimed to have killed him. He was reported dead in a strike in late 2014 as well. The first reports came out, people said we have heard a lot of this before. The fact that the white house not only confirmed it, but said where it occurred and how it occurred shows that they had good intelligence. I would say this is a sign that the strategy of the United States and allies is beginning to work. Reporter a former officer under saddam hussein. That was a big victory highlighting the inability or unwillingness to defend the city. Isil began consolidating its power and setting its sights on baghdad. His death wont necessarily halt isils advance nor diminish its authority in the areas it controls. It remains deeply entrenched where it controls all asecretaries oaspects oflife. How important was he to the leadership . We heard that he had a high ranking position in the leadership of isil in charge of military operations in iraq. The man had a military background and military skills. He was a member of the iraqi army under saddam hussein. He knows the land. The man is from mosul and thats where he was which gives him an advantage. He understands the people, he understands the culture. He can reach out to the people. He is an iraqi, he is not a foreigner. So undoubtedly this is a major blow to the group. But most analysts will say this is a shortterm setback. At the end of the day, isil is a secretive organization. But its power structure are not centralized. So isils leaders learn from the past mistake it is and what we understand is that the new structure really gives flexibility to leaders to adopt to the situation so that overall operations are not affected if a top leader is killed. But its too early to say whether or not isils operations on the ground will be affected by the death. But what is clear is that isil is still strong. Lets take you to macedonia where hundreds of people are camped out on the greek side of the border hoping to cross over. Macedonia has become the latest flash point of the refugee crisis that is overwhelming europe. Live to jonah hulls on the greek side of the border. Any indication of the numbers of people being let in . Or if anyone is being let in . No one has been let in this morning. There is no indication that anyone will be let in. There was a group of a few hundred were allowed to pass through. Thats the area where the model neck has formed. It was until thursday an invisible borderline along the railway line between greece and mass dont y now its marked by wire and armed men. More and more people by the hour making their way all the way up greece, hoping to go through macedonia, serbia and into the european union. There is a shift happening as we speak on the ground here. In the last few minutes large numbers of syrians have gathered themselves together and moved back from that point. Well turn the camera around for you. They have moved up to the hill side where we are standing over here. A large crowd of people. These are syrians. The reasons they have made this move is because they want to separate themselves from the other nationalities. What they say is that all of these other nationalities claim to be syrian because it is the syrians that have the most valid claim to asylum. Many others are economic migrants looking for a better life. They set up their own group here, they say we are syrians and they expect to be dealt with appropriately. We saw pictures earlier of people being handed out water. Give us a sense of the conditions that people are dealing with there right now. The conditions are extremely meager here. Thats the only way to describe them. There is water handed out by a few volunteer groups. The red cross is here. But in very, very small numbers because this situation has grown in just the last 48 hours into a real crisis. They need to find some way to deal with it. This is a bottleneck of people. Now thousands. They will keep coming throughout the day on one side razor wire and soldiers deeper into the country as well bringing up the rear now for the first time, greek riot police. This is a potentially volatile situation. The chances of confrontation rising all the time. Indeed, for the moment. Frances interior minister praised the actions of passengers who over powered an arm manned on a train. They tackled him. Two of the men are haled for their bravery was two u. S. Off duty soldiers. Relief that nobody got killed. It could have been a real carnage, no question about that. Im proud of my friend, he reacted so quickly and so bravely. He was the first one over there even after being injured himself, he went to help the other man who was bleeding also. Without his help, he would have died. That man was bleeding from his neck. He just went over there and saved his life. I ran a good ten meters. We didnt know his gun wasnt working. Spencer just ran anyway. If anybody would have gotten shot, it would have been spencer. We are going to take a quick break. When we come back, too dry for planting. This sout south South African fs its the dryest he has ever seen. Again, the top stories on al jazeera, senior officials from north and south korea are meeting. North korea are demanding they dismount huge speakers.

Thats according to the Southern Africaen development community. It says one in ten people will have to rely on food handouts. Maze production is expected to drop by 90 . Rainfall, flooding and high temperatures have caused the shortage. South africa is suffering its worst drought. Reporter maze farmer is having a bad season. His harvest has dropped by half because of poor rainfall. Dry, and doesnt look like other years when we had enough rain the previous season. The stalk is not as big as it should be. This is the worst drought hes seen in 20 years. This year the soil may be too dry to do that. You cant even cover the cost of land and doing other stuff. Like the inputs, the diesel. It means a lot. You cant even break even. Its not only crop farmers who have been affected by the drought. Livestock farmers rely on grain to feed their animals. They are feeling the pinch of rising grain prices. In the last year alone the price of grain has risen by more than 50 due to drought and fluctua fluctuating currency. They need more wat water to drink. You cant afford to put water pipes on the farm. The conditions cause the maze production to fall. The biggest problem for the farmers is they have lost half of the nice crop, they havent got enough money to plant the next year. So finance is a big problem and they havent got any assets to go through a bank. Usually a netted exporter, south africa may have to import up to 750,000 tons of maze to feed the country. Still, several Southern African nations rely on south africa for up to 80 of their maze imports. Neighboring countries have to buy our maze at a higher price because we are linched to the national market. If there is a doubt and there is not enough, it pushes up our process. While those countries will receive most of their supply, its added additional pressure on an already struggling south africa maze industry. Two women have made u. S. Military history. They are the first to graduate from the elite army rangers training school. They are unlikely to join the front line any time soon. The u. S. Is still debating the role of women in combat. A Graduation Ceremony for new soldiers of the elite ranger division. But this is one unlike any other. 65 years since the first class of rangers for the first time female graduates. Rangers, welcome to the club. Its a key moment in u. S. Military history when it comes to integrating women into combat roles. While they are some of the best trained soldiers, they wont be in combat, at least not yet. While woman are allowed in 95 of operations, women did not have the same physical strength to fight on the front lines. But that could now change after the two women completed the rangers grueling six week combat course, considered one of the most physical trainings the u. S. Military conducts. The pentagon announced they would review the ban on women. The departments policy is that all Ground Combat positions are open to women unless data shows the positions must remain closed. Thats happening by all positions. Its expected they will give their recommendations to the u. S. Secretary of defense next month and a final decision is expected later this year on which, if any, combat roles will be open to women. Its expected to have wide ranging flickses. There are 1. 3 Million People served in the armed forces. 15 are women. Today 17 countries allow women in front line combat roles including france, germany, canada and israel.

Breast cancer kills more than half a million women worldwide. If caught early, stage 0, many women make the decision to remove one or both of their breasts. Now a new u. S.
