The dictator has fallen the people a celebrating. But amidst the triumph its easy to forget that this is just a first step in remaking sudan. The country has been rocked by successive coups and coup attempts ever since it gained independence in one thousand fifty six in one thousand nine hundred nine Omar Al Bashir seized power in a coup of his own and managed to hold on to that power. Up until just now.

That the good is all this is a farce the regime did not fulfill this is a reproduction of the same regime we do not accept this and we will stay on the streets and to the regime changes completely clearly there was a little tinny its not right that the government has repressed us and now still wants to see control and power over us. As young people and citizens we see whats happening the government is manipulating us. Not there cannot be another regime that. Is a bloodthirsty leader and he wants to bring those another regime and. Others of this is completely unacceptable. Will study his own to regime. Yeah well certainly some people will not.

With the demonstrators there defying the military curfew thats been imposed they theyre determined to get rid of this regime what do you think the prospects are of doing that. I think is the people who will do that because its so much young of it what is it and does the big things thats its sort of lose you know its young people who have. Somehow dream of having through the news democracy and i think they would have made it im hoping it would get some helpful attention of the Community Around the world and thats happening now.

Adam thank you very much for talking with us this morning on d w news bahar a sudanese rights activist living here in berlin is in germany as a refugee thanks. Day after the jailing of wiki leaks cofounder Julian Assange debate rages over the methods he used to obtain and reveal information is he a hero who took on hidden power structures or a dangerous hacker. Faces extradition to the u. S. It was a fate he had been trying to avoid in a seven year game of hide and seek its now come to an end pelley strong out of the Ecuadorian Embassy in london handcuffed and protesting to be added we found i resisted leaving his refuge of almost seven years when the arrest comes one day after wiki leaks accused the ecuadorian government of spying on a song secretly filming his meetings with lawyers and a doctor inside the embassy. Ecuador had clearly had enough of the controversial guest in london accusing him of interfering in its foreign policies and violating the rules of asylum. It will be in the body and in the next few hours the government will reveal some details of which the world is not yet aware that justify the decision taken by president moreno. They regard assad is staying at the embassy in london during the term of former president correa and foreign minister. The two of them tolerated things such as mr assad putting feces on the walls of the embassy but it is the line behind. The police van took a song to court where he was found guilty of breaching bail in an earlier case but person anderson says lawyers confirm that the arrest relates to an extradition request from the United States since two thousand and ten we want that joint assigned she would face prosecution extradition to the United States for his publishing activities with wiki leaks unfortunately today weve been proven right with today received a warrant and the original extradition request from United States alleging that he has committed conspired to Chelsea Manning in relation to the materials published by with the legs in two thousand and ten the u. S. Justice department accuses a songs of conspiring with former Us Army Intelligence analyst Chelsea Manning to break into a pentagon computer and blames them for releasing classified information about military operations in iraq and afghanistan including this footage of a reuters journalist being killed in a drone attack. A sanch the forces view him as a fearless defender of free speech someone who is exposed to alleged u. S. War crimes. His lawyers say the arrest sets a dangerous precedent for the rights of journalists and that they will fight his extradition to the United States. Well joining us now from oslo is months and and us a professor of law at the university of oslo and also a former United Nations special report tour on the arbitrary detention thank you very much for joining us professor first of all joining songes in a london jail facing extradition to the u. S. Does the u. K. In your opinion have legal grounds to detain him the United Nations already in two thousand and sixteen held. Onto and held in detention and the u. K. How did you get to stall obstructing his Freedom Movement so basically. The street if you want to orchestrate. Ok but there is this u. S. Extradition request what do you make of that request do you think its valid. That came up yesterday did you get secret until yesterday and it is a very problematic procedure. For many reasons as as. I would read it from what you reported just a little while ago the u. S. Will start to use up trying to make a link between the obstruction or the forced entry into the u. S. Computer system because you see under u. S. Law you cant charge him all trussed accused him with bringing this information to the public so this omaha to try to find some kind of link between what Chelsea Manning did to get into the computer cracking a code etc thats a very difficult. Thing to stop this evidence or it wise so in my view. This will present a very high threshold which u. K. Courts english courts british courts should take very seriously and when that threshold is meant that well you see the political context here its very very tough and i think. I mean as the us they announced the test in the house of commons. Mr sollars had been arrested. There were. Statements by the judge the first it seems judge yesterday. Very unfortunate woman survived a song just personality well this is not an spat for an impartial. Proceeding the way that the u. K. Has a duty to go to deplorable base the inference by politicians but also if you like the statements by the judge in the courtroom yesterday. Minds and in a professor of law at the university of also former United Nations special rougher tour on arbitrary detention thank you very much for your views. Thank you.

Youre watching d. W. News still the hopes crushed by a crash landing but the Israeli Aerospace company is still calling its Lunar Mission a success we find out why. To mindanao the second biggest island in the philippines and known for its Natural Beauty its also the place the socalled Islamic State chose to create a caliphate in Southeast Asia even before i ask came on the scene mindanao had seen a long running power struggle between its christian majority and Muslim Minority in may of two thousand and seventeen i asked fighters made their move a few hundred fighters seized the city. The battle to flush them out there devastated the region reporters sunday papers. Travel to mindanao to see what life is like there today. We are on patrol with the largest muslim rabid group in mindanao the Moro Islamic Liberation front m. I. L. F. For decades they fought for independence tens of thousands were killed. But since the selfproclaimed Islamic State burst onto the scene in two thousand and seventeen the muslim rebels have joined forces with the Philippine Army both sides feel threatened by as fight has now lay neo. The Muslim Minority strongly supports the m. I. L. F. Only five percent of filipinos are muslims and almost all live in mindanao the areas are among the poorest in the philippines many here blame the christian majority got them and for their plight. We visit the military headquarters of the m. I. L. F. The government needs the rabbit support to secure a peace and to fight terror a president. Has promised them a far reaching autonomy is. The chief of staff isnt in uniform a sign perhaps of the shift from insurgency to politics. The m. I. L. F. Has seen defectors joining i as we ask him what might happen if the autonomy project goes badly i would or could be really did a lot of people really become diminished. The isis real theres this treasure. All the followers of. Jordan are there and. There will be. Bigger. He tells us that they will disarm up to thirty thousand fighters but only with full muslim autonomy. If not. Remember we will not do commission our forces and we will not give up our firearms which we promised to the government. This is what both sides are trying to avoid and not the rabi the largest muslim city of the philippines lies in ruins bombed out after a few hundred s. Fighters had occupied maradi for five months two years ago. More than one thousand people were killed. The tens of thousands remain displaced. It was president to tear to who at the bombing but hes also a strong supporter of muslim autonomy his film a peace advise that tells us. It is a strong signal to the bad guys. Around read this country i have been in the Peace Process under several president s and we have moved us far as we have this time the president feels that we can improve as a nation if we write more of our for the locals but it must be under one flag the philippine flag. But if the autonomy dr fay its more disaffected muslims could join radical outfits in addition after the loss of their caliphate in syria and iraq more foreign i guess five tests might also decide that mindanao is the new front and you can see the full version of the film called philippines in the sights of i asked. You to channel which is labeled simply documentary you can find out or course about the film on our website at steve coll. Well a few moments ago we talked about space x. The u. S. Commercial space ventura that successfully had its First Commercial Mission with its new big rocket well heres another story of a Space Mission but this one unfortunately went a bit wrong its in the Israeli Mission to the moon it failed when the lunar lander crashed into the moons Surface Mission control said engine failure was to blame but Israeli Aerospace officials officials still hailed the mission as a breakthrough for low cost small stale space. Israelis held their breath held their heads or even called on a higher power as it became clear that something had gone wrong national t. V. Carried live images from inside the control room and there the tension was palpable when the news of the land is crush was announced there was solemn applause the Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and project chiefs tried to stay positive about the outcome you win some you lose. The foot first you dont succeed you try again. For the holder so. This spacecraft was called para sheet which translates literally into in the beginning it hitched a ride into space aboard space x. Is rocket in february this year the mission was an attempt to make history it would have been the first privately funded spacecraft to land safely on the moon but nevertheless the project did achieve some milestones. We have achieved an amazing success in bringing a spacecraft to the moon almost bringing it to the landing. It is by far the smallest but the press spacecraft ever to get to the moon. So despite the disappointment there is reason to celebrate the project paves the way for future low cost lunar exploration. For more on this mission we have with us from w. Science good morning leon good morning so what went wrong on this mission it was a crash landing it was really during the last seconds the last few seconds just before the touchdown they were only one hundred fifty meters apparently above the surface and then Mission Control lost communication for some reason. So we dont really know what happened during those last meters but. Well they say that maybe the main engine had a problem. Well maybe see in five investigations but what is clear is that the biggest lender wasnt very robust as its privately funded it needed to be so there was no back up far Communication Systems of how the solar panel to keep costs low so close hundred fifty meters from the surface and then it went wrong how big of a setback is this for the Israeli Space program so their big goal was to be the first nation on the moon this dream obviously crest right even though they were so sure to make it if you look at the twitter feed there was one person the tweeted if they will if they land on the moon successfully they will be the first nation on the moon and they correct it not if when so that shows its not a very scientific apart just more of a demonstration of we can and you know they try to be optimistic and to still say its a success because they came this close they did come really close and theyve actually got their their lander on the moon but just not in one piece what exactly was the point of this mission. Well it was more of a Political Mission than a scientific one there wasnt much of our big signs unbarred but it was packed with emotions and with symbols that they had the National Ant
