On the money going out there now theyre even putting people out of their sights on me over there right now well money right and i was in grand isle because i know thats one of the i was devastated by hurricane doris just to give you an idea of where we are we just arrived in tracy i treasure key this is on the island of abaco one of the and more no there goes the island of the bahamas you can see that this is pretty much ground 0 of where Hurricane Dorian most affected this island nation it took 36 hours for that hurricane again a category 5 to make it across the the northern most islands of the bahamas winds upwards of 350 Kilometers Per Hour what you see behind me this is actually whats left of the airport terminal again weve just arrived when youre flying in you can really get a sense of the devastation theres a conifer forests all around has acres and acres of trees literally split in half it sounds cliche to say this but it but it looks as though a bomb went off here if you were to drive and thats a wrecks and now that the waters have subsided you arrive at marsh harbor there are thousands of people who live there the latest estimates that we heard were somewhere around 13000. 00 homes that were practically leveled by by this hurricane theres no electricity theres no Cell Phone Service or dozens of people here effectively. Of effectively homeless waiting for evacuation waiting for supplies that again is another concern the potential shortage of food shortage of water and shortage of medicine the United Nations on tuesday evening had already said that this is a crisis that can only be made worse if there isnt immediate action by the International Community. Well after wrecking parts of the bahamas Hurricane Dorian is heading to the u. S. East coast while florida could be sped a direct hit the slow moving storm could make landfall in the carolinas or georgia later this week its still packing winds of up to 165 kilometers an hour. Are east coast certainly is within the cone still and people need to remain vigilant if youre ordered to evacuate you need to do that from Palm Beach County all the way up to nassau the florida georgia border all those coastal counties theyve issued evacuation orders and and its important that residents heed those calls you know get out now while you have time or theres fuel available and youll be safe on the road all right lots more so to come here on the news hour including we all hope to find a way out of the current impasse and unsettling times on comes leader agrees to one of the key demands of the protest movement but its unlikely to satisfy the demonstrators and well tell you about a contentious visit by israels Prime Minister to a city in the occupied west bank. And in support well hear from the tennis player who has just reached our 1st of a grand slam semifinal assholes going to come to the plate. Not the u. S. Impose new sanctions on iran for the 3rd time in a week iran immediately hit back by announcing its plans to further scale back its commitments under the 25th a nuclear deal as it was raised in jordan as more now from washington d. C. Another day another round of u. S. Sanctions against iranian officials hezbollah and businesses in India Singapore and the u. A. E. But wednesday sanctions including the twist the u. S. Is offering a 15000000. 00 reward from a fund meant to find alleged terrorists to get information about the people running what officials call an illegal scheme to sell oil on the world market these people they say are members of irans Islamic Revolutionary guard corps coots force or i. R. G. C. This network has moved hundreds of millions of dollars worth of illicit oil that money is then used to Fund Terrorism in recent months the shipping network used more than a dozen tankers to export nearly 10000000. 00 barrels of crude oil largely to syria to support assad even before wednesdays announcement had been emailing the captains of a dozen iranian tankers offering them millions in cash if they would sail to ports where the u. S. Could then seize the vessels one of the captains targeted is at the helm of the iran owned adrian daria one which u. K. Sailors recently seized near gibraltar who are trying to move well illegally to syria and the tanker has now gone dark somewhere off the syrian coast perhaps in a bid to transfer its cargo to another vessel in the mediterranean. Irans reaction to the new sanctions in a tweet foreign minister jobs a reef said having failed at piracy the u. S. Resorts to outright blackmail deliver us irans oil and receive several 1000000. 00 or be sanctioned yourself serif comment comes as his government is indorsing a french proposal to extend a 15000000000. 00 line of credit so to hong can pay its bills the u. S. Is not in favor of such an offer and says it may violate existing sanctions even so the u. S. President is keeping open the chance of a face to face talks with Haasan Rouhani it is possible. They would like to be able to solve their problem got a big problem theyre getting killed financially but iran isnt focused on talks it says its downgrading its compliance with the 2015 nuclear deal that means after the decree is issued today or tomorrow the Atomic Energy organization will rapidly speed up its activities in order to reach its goals threats met with counter threats and no signs of either side relenting rosalyn jordan aljazeera washington iran has released 7 crew members of a british flag and oil tanker scenes in the strait of hormuz in july thats tonight in paris was detained for alleged marine violations 2 weeks off of the agent duryea was seized by the british territory of gibraltar claims against the sun imperio and now making their way through irans courts lets bring in jim joins us live from washington d. C. Hes president of the National Iranian American Council jim also yet more sanctions being imposed on iran and its oil shipping network the message from washington here i suppose its clear that keeping up the pressure on iran. Thats absolutely the message that washington is sending and this is really a reflection of the fact that for the white house for the travel ministration the policy is maximum pressure and with the prospects of negotiations with iran and with the efforts that the french have undertaken there is this threat that the United States and iran may actually talk to one another and so what were really seeing is an attempt i think to scuttle any chance for talks which hardliners here in the United States view as premature until the u. S. Can actually impose maximum pressure which would look a lot like an embargo of iran which would require that europe and the rest of the world actually come onboard which right now they are on the other side of the United States when it comes to iran policy and iran is further warn of the scale back its commitments under the 2015 deal and we also saw that strums tried 3 to propose some kind of financial waiver to keep the deal alive but of course washington is having none of it so whats irans next move jamal. Sauron is playing this balancing act in which it is attempting to meet u. S. Pressure with counter pressure but in so doing it also is trying to be careful to not alienate europe and the rest of the International Community that is currently on iran side so as the United States escalates its sanctions is taking steps very patiently and almost pragmatically to violate elements of the nuclear deal and i think its very interesting that the steps that were announced are actually less grave than what had been previously expected there was an expectation that iran was actually going to raise its enrichment levels closer to weapons grade theyre not doing that but i think some of these new sanctions may actually at least be an attempt to go to iran to do something that does cause you to lose the support of the International Community and despite the hawkish noises being made by National Security adviser john bolton and secretary state might bump a 0 President Trump has said repeatedly that he would meet the iranian president is that likely to happen do you think i think that the odds of that are extremely low for the time being and thats because were not talking about a negotiation were talking about a photo op for the iranians for has several honey theyve already been humiliated by previous interactions with the United States so the prospect of showing up patton hand for a photo with donald trump i think is is not going to happen just a final thought how is this playing out then politically for trump in the run up to the u. S. Elections i mean trump has failed to achieve any big deals under his Foreign Policy but hed love to i suppose brag these made deals with north korea and possibly now iran. I do think donald trump probably does want to deal probably thinks that this would help him but on the other hand i think that donald trump has talked about the possibility of war being a political winner and for the iranians i think they want to deal as well but if thats not something thats going to happen they will likely escalate at a time when its very crucial for the u. S. Economy to be successful for trump and so theres a very dangerous game that could play both ways and could actually put the risk of war at the highest level that weve seen leading up to the u. S. Elections thank you very much for your time my pleasure on the chief executive has agreed to one of the main demands of the long running protest Movement Carry lambs announced the complete withdrawal of an extradition bill that would have allowed criminal suspects to be sent to Mainland China thats a trial approaches leaders and willing to call off their demonstrations when haye has more now from hong kong. Its what millions of people have been demanding for months the complete withdrawal of an extradition bill that many in hong kong had come to view as a symbol of a much larger problem the government will formally withdraw the bill in order to truly allay public constants. The secretary for security will move a motion according to the rules of procedure when the Legislative Council responds the build to months of protests that have at times paralyzed parts of the city seen hundreds of arrests and regular violence with police the honorable mr kerry lunch and previous overtures from chief executive kerry lamb to suspend the legislation in june and then announce that it was did in july failed to end the rest there are more large rallies planned in the days ahead which is when well find out of kerry lambs decision will have the desired effect or of protesters believe its come way too late the protest is viewed debil is just another example of Mainland Chinas growing influence on hong kong so its withdrawal could be seen as a rare concession by beijing demonstrators demands have evolved into broader democratic reforms and an independent commission of inquiry into the crisis and the actions of police. Rarely organizers say the legislations withdrawal will be celebrated briefly but its not enough to end the crisis and by not agreeing to all the demands they believe kerry has proved again shes out of touch with her people caroline herself irrelevant she already proved so many times too many times to all people that she really doesnt care about own people if a leader behaved like that i hope people will not care about at all. The announcement came less than a day after a private conversation was leaked to the media in which lamb said shed resign and apologize for the chaos if she could that was seen as an indication that it was china that would decide her fate and that of the bill even some progovernment politicians believe withdrawing the legislation is the right thing to do but its too late if you ask anybody in the street whether theyd still remember what that bit was about i think probably 20 percent can tell. The protesters i dont know even 10 percent remember its not about the war which is likely to mean that the citys crisis is far from over wayne hay aljazeera hong kong. And sarah joins us live now from Hong Kong Sarah so kerry lamb has now declared a complete withdrawal of this controversial extradition bill whats been the response there in hong kong. Well support as a response has been overly negative weve got the newspapers here you can see the kerry lamb surrenders she withdraws the bill thats one of the local newspapers this one says kerry withdraws the bill but ignores the demands and heres the South China Morning Post which simply states that kerry lamb withdraw declares withdraw the bill so certainly if kerry lamb had hoped that there was this would bring peace to hong kong with a concession meeting one of the key demands of the protests is that shes wrong there described as a fake concession but it wont be accepted by the people of hong kong weve spoken to a number of the prodemocracy groups including some of the key organizers of these protests have been going on now for up to 14 weeks now in hong kong theyve said its a serious political misjudgment on behalf of kerry lamb and the reason why is it said that number one she has met that one demand a withdrawal of the bill but if there are 5 demands that theyve said on a no again and again the 2nd one was they want an independent probe into the Police Action weve heard numerous times that the concerns or accusations from the protests is that the Police Believe the police have behaved in a hostile way towards these protesters they also want and receive for those 1100 plus people have been arrested over the 13 or 14 weeks one person as young as 12 years of age has been arrested they also want to drop reference to the term riots by the clearing the various parts of this particular protester brought you centers heavier penalties and heavier giles sentences so they want that particular reference trucks and they also want universal suffrage so i want to restart the reform process so if kerry had thought by offering this concession the withdraw the bill then she is wrong the protest is a planning to go ahead with law campaigns and more protests in days ahead and as you say the protest is bound to keep up the pressure and they say theyll continue to do that until lead demands are met. That is certainly the message of the theyre saying to all of all of hong kong there is a protest planned on saturday this is another protest planned at the airports this is where they cool communique else last weekend and a few weeks ago in august where they shut down the airport they had a campaign there at the airports and they roads as well as the access to the airports that carry land well do a press conference we believe today which is thursday in hong kong to respond to the media about the decision to withdraw the bill but the city that the words of the suggestion is this concession shes hoping to offer peace to those protestors other suggestions are that that she may be hoping or china maybe hoping that this may bring peace to hong kong streets in the lead up talk type one which is when china will celebrate the 7th anniversary of Chinese Communist china communist china so certainly today will find out they will find out what kerry believes or her decision that the reasons behind her decision to withdraw the bill but at the moment by no means will this bring peace to the protests here in hong kong you plan to go ahead with more demonstrations in the days ahead all right sara plant there in Hong Kong Sara thank you. All right time for a short break here and ill just say when we come back as many as 17 states in the u. S. Are trying to reduce gun related violence well tell you how. And how a new noise making plastic not so fantastic and pakistan. And in sports the colombian football are making a big entrance at his new club more than that.
