The city theyve pushed back this morning. From. Tripoli International Airport but theres still. So you see that the u. N. Backed government is has mounted a counter offensive but does it have enough power to actually dislodge all or repair the army off a general hostile which is trying to take the capital. Yeah i mean the west of libya has always been militarily quite strong even if alliances are very fickle and. The general environment is very fluid the offensive i mean the fact that it isnt quite still the strong and the more have to work to that result. Of them watching us and making it very much a regional conflict the ball people will join the fight even if its not. In the plan yet so more and more people from cities like today have joined in with the with the g. S. A. Government.

The first a day before elections in israel Prime MinisterBinyamin Netanyahu has made a Controversial Campaign promise he says he and next june are settlements in the occupied west bank hes facing a stiff challenge from a fall when general the centrist benny gantz was a tight race ahead a middle east correspondent on extrema sent us this report on what voters a say on the eve of the poet. Benyamin netanyahu is likud versus spending against blue and white party is red selection is said to be a tight race with voters remaining split including here in this close restore in jerusalem Ilana Benyamin hopes to be netanyahu its every phone calls to Prime Minister who form the next government she can see any ill turn it to.

That have been born white take the premiership and move on to the hopefully better and more secure places. When israelis go to the polls on tuesday they have a wide range of issues to consider and a Record Number of parties to choose from economy and security are usually the Top Priorities for voters but this election is slightly different. In essence these are vital issues for israelis but theyre not necessarily the big determinants of votes because we have a situation where the voters focusing primarily on the issue of netanyahu his ten year long governance over Israeli Society thirteen years in total and the corruption charges against him. Despite facing an indictment on a string of corruption charges netanyahu can still count on a strong voter base. He campaigned on social media and by meeting foreign leaders with a clear message hes the only one who can keep israel safe and represent the countrys interests abroad. Meanwhile pentagons and his team of former Army Generals have been touring the country with the centrist blue and white party has been ahead of the likud in almost all opinion polls.

Prime minister netanyahu and his messages a busy dividing painful and using incitement in order to survive we have busy reinforcing the security of israel and working towards a Better Future for our children. Post as predicted Gunther Netanyahu will compete next to nick but netanyahu might have the upper hand to form a right Wing Coalition with smaller right wing parties. Now b. C. Some of the leaders of the far right populist parties in europe italys foreign minister interior minister mature salvini has invited populist party somewhere around europe to a meeting in milan salvini is hoping to forge a new all right alliance ahead of next months European Elections among the groups attending a germanys far right e. F. T. The Danish People sparty and the finns party from finland salvini says he wants to form a new populist bloc in parliament. Now our correspondent take a written is standing by in milan where that meeting is taking place so welcome a debate getting this first of four what is salvini hoping to achieve with this alliance. Amrita as you just said hes trying to unite the far right populist parties the head of the Upcoming European elections and today hes actually announced that that that plan and he said that theyre going to be building a new party a new grouping in the European Parliament called the alliance of nations and people all the ins now the f. D. A. The f. D. A. Is more eternal and the danish and the finns. Have a far right populist parties have already agreed to join this but theyve put a call out to all members of the other three groupings all of the far right populace and indeed anybody who share their views to try and change europe from the inside the people to these parties actually have in common rebecca because real curious reports they agree on certain issues but theyre really wide apart on out is. Thats right amrita and just how successful he is really remains to be seeing that this early stage i mean there were only as i said the food. For representatives of four different parties attending today i think the league is illegal selvin is legal party would have liked it to be much bigger although some of the people i spoke to from the league of the representatives said they were happy its just early days theyre planning another big event here in may and theyre hoping that they can get a lot of other parties to sign up in that time but as you say there are lots of differences among these parties they agree primarily on changing europe bringing sovereignty back to nation states and rather anti immigration you might say so they definitely agree on most issues but have different in different policies when it comes to things like trade and agriculture and things like that so itll be interesting to see how they can mate they can only they are if they really stress today that they have more in common they may do different so that they really want to unite under those commonalities but he simply has to be you are because theres another issue that i want to raise with you because also im the European Election is the chief strategist in Trumps White House steve bannon he was to create a platform for rightwing governments ahead of the vote hes given his support to a new Training Center for populist european politicians also in italy. I am this form a ministry in trees altie in the hills of central italy has been revived with a new mission here benjamin hardwell has launched a conservative center called the institute for Human Dignity he wants to draw together christians and jews and fight against islamic fundamentalism young politicians will come to terms altie and trying to become right wing populists resulting in the next generation is going to become the Global Headquarters of the fight to defend the Judeo Christian basis of western civilization so thats just not just in europe but right across the world. Vision has won the support of steve bannon the former advisor to u. S. President donald trump the two devout catholics have met frequently in rome. Im just honored these they asked me to help out and you know what im trying to do is add maybe a little organizational ability and in to bring in donors faculty people i would know throughout the world they could teach that and hes now trying to bring together right wing parties from across europe into a unified group called the movement hes hoping for a surge of support in the Upcoming European elections this may because the park was near full sovereignty as a great politician a great message and now it is correct and thats whats on the cards maybe this is true say all the nations a stunning victory. Some observers are concerned about the alliance between bannons movement and the conservative training academy. The point that brings them together is an obsession with identity politics who would. Years and increased mission they say we are christians in the west and europe is based on Judeo Christian values which we have to defend against an invasion. For targeting there is also resistance interest ulti many residents dont want bannan and his acolytes in the village the monastery is a pilgrimage just a nation that attracts tourists opponents want the Italian Government to prevent it being turned into a right Wing Training camp. David saudi why is a cultural location in our village being used for an ideological project to make it into the markets terry interest is being used as the foundation for a movement but what are its ideals with whose money is it being funded to what in. Part worlds plan is clear in center interest altie should become a launching pad for right wing populism across europe he plans to open the doors to his first students this summer. So rebecca how is this center and balance plans to create this movement in europe being received by foreign parties their. World bans willingness or desire dream you might say to unite far right parties in europe has been longstanding and as we heard in the report he created this organization known as the movement to try and funnel money into these far right parties but a lot of what he was trying to do with the movement turns out to be illegal in european law so he hasnt got very far and weve seen a lot of parties who he was trying to get onside for instance materia selvin is the leader party and le pens National Rally party in france weve seen them back away from ban and saying they dont need him and that they can go it alone and theyre actually receiving distanced themselves from balance movements but his in his dream to unite the parties to. That may be succeeding even without him roger becker raters in milan thank you very much for that. Now here in Germany Police have launched a cracked on on socalled criminal plans mainly of arab and kurdish origin tightly knit families operating criminal networks for decades the cans are believed to have thousands of members spread out in different parts of the country they have their strongholds in the rural area in hanover breman as well as in many of these families came to germany in the one nine hundred seventy s. And eightys they were not allowed to work back then some were tempted to and money to criminal activities ranging from robbery to drug dealing Authorities Say theyre now going to adopt as tolerance policy towards such Activity Police are specially wide about these groups that the a preying on young refugees and recruiting them for their criminal activities in an attempt to disrupt the scene police have launched with the court the strategy of one thousand pinpricks our reporter mark at a small. A large scale raid in berlin is not done district investigators are mainly targeting shisha bars where they suspect organized crime clans are laundering money customs investigators auditors and federal and state crime authorities accompanied by hundreds of Police Officers are searching the bars its the biggest operation of its kind in berlin now i can district mayor martin he has come along he wants to know how the mission is going. To work. This time the improprieties are minor offenses tobacco without tax stamps and violations of trading and Child Protection laws but the district mayor says he wont turn a blind eye. We can publish everything with these checks from minor to major offenses we are implementing a zero tolerance strategy here lard. Scale raids like this are part of a new campaign against or one hundred kilogram gold coin worth millions but convicting clan members is difficult not least because few are willing to testify about two hundred thousand individuals are reportedly members of arab clan families in germany the government is increasing the pressure by seizing luxury cars and real estate but organized crime researcher ralph gadahn says thats not enough to break the clan solidarity fifty three theyre all sworn to secrecy and thats what makes the investigators work so difficult there are unable to break through these structures. There would need to be a support program for people who want to leave the classrooms. But there are no such programs yet how delusions came from syria ten years ago almost every day she sees the klans at work along. One of noisy main streets but shes afraid their crimes will strengthen prejudices against innocent migrants and muslims is on the on and on. The mafia concentrated here on the. Life. On this and i think of sooner or later something is going to happen here. She said shes most afraid of a xena phobic attack kerns district mayor however has a different concern that more migrants will fall into a life of crime if the state does not do anything about it. I think itd be good if we make this crane that might exist here so that we could make a profit on hard to make it uncomfortable so that its not worth it to come here to commit crimes. So germans should get used to huge Police Actions like this one Authorities Say they know these are not enough but that they lack better resources in the fight against organized clan crimes.
