a virus outbreak that's killed 17 people and infected more than $570.00 out the. libyan warlord who me for half his forces threatened to shoot down any plane that using the airspace around the capital tripoli. so then un human rights experts are calling for an investigation into new allegations that the saudi crown prince was involved in hacking the phone of amazon and washington post boss jeff bezos relations between the world's richest man in riyadh saudi after the murder of jamal khashoggi the saudi journalists was a regular contributor to the washington post and click age as this. 15 months after the murder of saudi journalists. in the kingdom's consulate in istanbul the fallout continues jeff bezos the boss of the world's largest online shop amazon also owns the washington post the newspaper khashoggi wrote for he's now at the center of a hacking probe un human rights experts including agnes kalmadi who investigated murder say they've looked at forensic analysis that points to dart of being stolen from basal says foreign in 20 i 18 that happened after bass also received whatsapp messages from the personal account of the saudi crown prince mohammed bin some on possibly the experts say to try and influence articles in the washington post the guinea shola expert conduct an. investigation concluded reason medium or high certainty that the show also of the hacking was a videophile send to me stone. and account by the crown prince on the sidelines of the world economic forum the saudi energy minister responded to the allegation is it. was a democracy people are concerned. i'm stupid you know that but at the same time the wall street journal reported that saudi officials close to the crown prince said they were aware of a plan to hack base also as foreign as part of a broader intimidation campaign against ji but not aware of any attempt to blackmail him well i think is exactly the right way the idea that the conference would jeff bezos is photos absolutely silly. as baze also supported g.'s fiance following his murder in 2018 relations with been some man soweth. baze also security team alleged last march that the kingdom gained private information from his phone involving text messages between him and a former t.v. news presenter this latest analysis implicates the crown prince for the 1st time i think that it's hard to believe that if they had this successful capability and were brazenly willing to use it against one of the most powerful people in the world that they would stop there the saudis have been accused of other hacking attacks but baze also is by far the most high profile person involved and these latest allegations are expected to only worsen relations between the world's richest men and the kingdom a strategic ally of the us nicola gage al-jazeera well we heard from the un special rapporteur when she spoke to our desire has more from that interview. any shoulder expo to conduct an. investigation concluded reason medium to or high certainty that the so also the hacking was a videophile send to me stove top web site. and account by the crown prince we subsequently david kay and i asked independent expert to review the findings all of the initial team of experts and they too i've reached a similar level conclusion as the. forensic study i wouldn't want to point out i decided that he saw a d.c. court for forensic expert weighs an incredible means and disposal to reach 100 per cent. so teach you would certainty order so also the yacking that should be a wake up cord to all of us here that twee are confronting a technology and and an industry that is extremely difficult to trace even reserve best and highest resources at our disposal those allegations place. the crown prince and the center of a campaign on the hacking surveillance and intimidation that's a fair saying in my view based on mine were created to the killing of gemma castro game those allegations today reinforced the call and i have made for sorow independent investigation into the mastermind behind the killing of castro gate and particularly an investigation into the nature and extent of their responsibilities at the highest level of the stay. including by mohammed ben stein that's agnes kalama well earlier jeff bezos tweeted a photo of himself with his fiance unveiling a plaque last october which was marking the one year anniversary of his murder and it had the hash tag jumo glenn collins a former deputy national intelligence officer for transnational threats at the cia and he says yemen's in phone hacking doesn't surprise him. and intelligence officer it sounds like business as usual i'm not surprised at all that that happened i am a bit surprised that n.b.s. himself would allow or the intelligence service would use the head of state's own phone so easily traceable but that they did so doesn't surprise me it's pretty clear it's not that basis is rich that makes him of interest what makes him of interest is that he owns the washington post one of the 3 most influential media newspapers in the united states and therefore with global implications which in seeking truth and i i want to emphasize that the washington post seeks facts it does not engage in a campaign hostile to m.b.'s or saudi arabia it publishes facts and the facts have been damning and harmful to saudi image and operations and because of that it is then of some well of interest to saudi arabia to have information that could discredit or the washington post or its owner or the information by creating a counter story which is not the truth which is a diversion but that's the motivation certainly this has not been the most sophisticated operation i gather i'm not a cyber expert but i know operations and you do want to try to have an operation conducted so that it cannot be associated directly with your chief of state seems to be a rather obvious thing to try to avoid and then i gather that the hacking tool used was not the most sophisticated or at least easily hidden so that seems to be ham fisted but i have to say not surprising again because this seems not to have been the most subtle service or operation. so house democrats are trying to convince the senate to remove president donald trump from office they've been there all humans in his impeachment trial on wednesday with 2 warnings aimed at the upper chambers republican majority history is watching and so the american people why did your constant reports from washington d.c. . please be seated this was the 1st of 3 days the impeachment managers have to present their case that president trump tried to pressure ukraine to get dirt on joe biden and withheld u.s. security aid as leverage nevertheless the documents and testimony that we were able to collect paints an overwhelming and damning picture of the president's efforts to use the powers of his office to corruptly solicit for help in his reelection campaign if this conduct is not impeachable then nothingness i would rather go the long way from switzerland president trump again called his impeachment a partisan witch hunt he said he could live with having new witnesses testify in the trial so it's not up to the president whether that he said it and it's troll wants to listen to a particular witness we have that constitutional responsibility of the courts have yielded to us in order to carry out their responsibility republican senators has stuck by trump they include some of his fiercest offenders there on a crusade to destroy this man and they don't care what they destroy in the process of trying to this story donald trump i do care so to my democratic colleagues you can say what you want about me but i am covering up nothing i am exposed. your hatred of this president to the point that you would destroy the institution it would take 20 republican senators to cross the aisle to vote to convict and remove president trump from office the possibility is remote the much likelier scenario is an acquittal with the american voter serving as trump's final jurors in november at the polls hi joe castro al-jazeera washington. well a u.s. senate minority that chuck schumer says the idea of a so-called witness trade involving former national security advisor john bolton and joe biden's son hunter biden is off the table. 1st of all the republicans have the right to bring in any witnesses they want they haven't wanted to and that trade is is not on the table if house managers continue to do what they've done over the last 2 hours i think that it will continue to make a powerful case a 1st step witnesses and documents 2nd step we get a real fair trial and we who knows what happens once there's a real fair trial if there is not a fair trial if they just shut it down any acquittal of president trump will have a little value. he was following events from capitol hill in washington d.c. and she had this whole question of when this is not going to crop up again for a few days but when it does things could get interesting. yeah and that is still something that the democrats are pushing for there we get the sense that increasingly they're feeling it's unlikely they're going to get before 4 republican senators to join them when the vote happens next week at the debate in the vote house next week as to introducing new witnesses and documents that should be said there that even if witnesses all voted for for example that there's a vote with 4 republicans saying yes we do want to hear from former national security adviser john bolton. this entire process becomes pretty chaotic because what's likely to happen then is that the white house will will take this to court and then it will go through the lower court somebody will probably end up in the supreme court that's going to hold up the entire impeachment trial for weeks and months for the for the foreseeable future because the senate is in impeachment moot they're not allowed to actually do anything else so just be like twiddling their thumbs waiting for rather waiting for the supreme court to rule so that would throw everything into utter chaos which is another reason perhaps why it's thought increasingly likely that the republicans those 4 republicans in the end you know but they're not going to help the democrats try and get witnesses aboard everyone does sort of want to get this. over and done with the republicans especially before the interim state of the universe address on february the 4th and you know many democrats to i mean there are senators now sitting in the chamber who want to be on the campaign trail in the in the democratic presidential primaries so they also are interested the democrats are trying to get this done as quickly as possible as well but you never know things do change looking from the outside that you could see why people might think republicans are trying to avoid close scrutiny one wonders what impact all of this is having on perhaps those undecided voters across the united states. well that's part of the problem too because the that the democrats you know fought and wanted longer to in order to present their case now they do have 24 hours over 3 days and it's clear that as far as they're concerned that trying to tell a story the definitive narrative of why through the evidence that they've gleaned from that house inquiries and subsequently they feel that they have a case which proves that donald trump was embarking on a shadow foreign policy from the white house which was purely for his electoral game to cheat in their words in 2020 by using members of the administration and others to try and blackmail the ukrainian ukrainian government but that his watching if it's going to be a successive 24 hour narrative i mean if they don't actually get to sit through all of that at home will their minds really have been made up even the sentences i mean they're openly breaking a lot of the rules which they're supposed to be following on pain of death i mean we have lots of reports of people doing crosswords many senators walking out of the chamber for long periods of time they're not supposed to do that many senators resting their eyes it's a brilliant i mean we've got a lot of restlessness among the senators and the senators who the democrats are really trying to get those those swing state republicans the people who want to show their electorate selected situ and sees that they are taking this seriously where least one says they've already been very offended by the house managers presentation when the shoes dana one of the house managers jerry cues the republicans of treachery for not allowing witnesses or being part of a cover up that annoyed at least one of the of the the moderate republicans who the democrats are trying to appeal to so we don't know what effect all this is having or the public or the senators but but still i mean there are mixed reviews at the moment your research. that's a picture from capitol hill she had thanks a lot. role u.s. president donald trump has attended the world economic forum in davos in switzerland where he used his press conference to lash out against the impeachment proceedings he also boasted about withholding some evidence from the democrats a white house correspondent can we get more. u.s. president donald trump returned home to washington ignoring reporters' questions about the ongoing senate impeachment trial against him but before leaving davos switzerland trump in his 1st press conference the start of the trial lashed out at his democratic adversaries calling them major sleaze bags that his mind set focused on his defense trumped told reporters he wanted to let members of his administration testify like former national security advisor john bolton secretary of state mike pump aoe and other top officials he even floated the possibility of showing up himself had left. the white you know sort of lovesick right there. and stare in their corrupt faces i'd love to do it i don't know. you may convince me to do it trump seemed fixated on the trial back home even as the white house hoped trump would use the world economic forum to highlight accomplishments on trade he appeared confident now democrats are accusing him of openly admitting he's withholding documents one of the main allegations against the jet but honestly we have all the material they don't have the material trump did discuss other topics including a future trade deal with the european union and confirmed he's expanding his controversial travel ban barring citizens of certain countries from entering the u.s. wearing a couple of countries to it we have to be safe our country has to be safe. trump's ban sparked protests in the u.s. when he introduced it less than a week after taking office. here. many called it a muslim ban for targeting muslim majority countries like iran and somalia and fought it in court 2018 the supreme court upheld the policy the white house promises countries can be removed from the travel ban list if they step up security but those headlines from trump's impromptu press conference were once again overshadowed at the impeachment trial on capitol hill mr justice one trunk believes could shape his legacy when i finish i think that this is going to go down as one of the greatest things i've done for our country. despite allegations to the contrary trump insists he's committed no wrongdoing and efforts to remove him from office are an attempt to undo the results of the 2016 election and influence the next one can really help washington. well pretty well still ahead on the news hour including. here those are questions and that's why this. was one of. the protests rejecting lebanon's new government descend into rocks the street battles in the capital beirut. one threat to our lands turned to dust droughts becomes a new normal for millions of people in somalia. and defending champion. so called at this training open peter has the details. say the ban on all public transport to contain the spread of a deadly virus in the chinese city of rouhani has just taken effect all planes trains buses and ferries in and out of the city have been shut down the number of confirmed cases across china has crossed 57017 people have died since the virus emerged last month and cases have also been detected in several countries in asia and the united states and the world health organization will decide whether to declare the outbreak a global health emergency later on thursday so let's go live straight away to agent brown who's there for us in hong kong and adrian known cases are spreading tell us more 1st of all about what the authorities in one hand are doing to try and prevent things getting worse. at hong kong international airport and normally you have several flights a day from here to where we hand and of course those flights have now being canceled or is you know a city of $11000000.00 people it's a major transport hub in central china but it's now a city that sit in effective quarantine that the lockdown as you say began several minutes ago this is a lockdown that's being inforced by the police and it's one of the draconian measure. has the president xi jinping has felt necessary to take the idea the hope is they can somehow stop this virus from spreading still further but it's possible that this may be simply too little too late because the virus has now spread to 2 thirds of china's problem says that $25.00 provinces in total that includes taiwan we've had another suspected case in macau this morning and of course now 2 suspected cases in hong kong and you know the world health organization has deferred making a final decision on whether to declare a global health emergency in part i think because he wants to hear more from china about why it perhaps feels that it is comfort enough of being able to contain this fire is and to prevent it spreading because you know if the w.h.o. does declare a global public health emergency then that's going to harm china's international reputation that's going to mean a big loss of face to china it's going to mean that this you know global emergency is down to a virus outbreak in china so i think china at this w.h.o. meeting is doing all that it can to convince members that it does have this thing under control but i guess we also have to remember nick that china is deploying a sort of another unexpected weapon at the moment in its efforts to try to contain the violence of the virus and that is honesty you know the word has gone out to officials across the country don't sit on information be open be transparent that seems to be working and i guess a lot of work has been done behind the scenes by veronica since over the trying to get to the bottom of this virus and what it's all about and to stop it mutating. yes the w.h.o. put out an interesting tweets yesterday which i think will cause a lot of unease they're now saying that you know animal to human contact is no longer the only way they think that this virus is spreading in other words it's person to person contact so that's taking us to a whole new level that is why you know doctors medical experts are continuing to repeat the advice to people in places like hong kong airport to to wear your face mask not to be self-conscious and if you do have any symptoms like coughing sneezing you know a fever to go to your doctor and to be honest about where you've been and you know particularly if you've been to hand you know i guess at the moment nic you know fear for many people flying out of china is to be sitting beside a passenger on a long haul flight who is sneezing and coughing you know traveling in china today is becoming slightly riskier than it was a week ago and the 2nd person has tested positive where you are in hong kong does hong kong have the resources to cope with this if it spreads in the way that it has and china. that's a good question i think that the hong kong government is doing what it can to be prepared yesterday the health secretary sophia chan announced that hong kong was going to turn several holiday camps into quarantine centers and people who are infected would go there as well as people they had been in contact with but certainly when the sars epidemic happened 17 years ago the hospitals were overrun and one of the problems i think they've learned from that time is to have instant quarantine for people who are infected that didn't happen in in 20022003 but i think that will happen now as to whether they have enough resources we simply don't know. already julie there for the moment thanks very much indeed for that update morning forces loyal to the libyan war would he for have to say they will enforce a no fly zone over the main airport in the capital tripoli flights it only just resumed it need to go airport after being suspended following a rocket attack on wednesday the u.n. recognize government says it have to forces don't have the capacity to enforce a no fly zone i have flights in and out of months ago have been suspended following the

meeting of world leaders last weekend in berlin was supposed to bring libya closer to peace and cement a cease fire in the country and yet there are reports of fresh air attacks or mystica airport in tripoli carried out by the forces of general holly for half the turkish foreign minister has told delegates here in davos that one man stands in the way of peace. after didn't make any announcement as he didn't sign the joint statement for ceasefire in moscow this is only the problem everybody committed not to stand any additional military force there by the way our personnel is there for training and also education nothing else like very limited number of we don't have any strong military presence in the lack of political progress means the humanitarian situation is bound to further deteriorate the un is particularly concerned about the thousands of migrants from elsewhere in africa trapped in the conflict zone we found solutions for if you want them extracting them evacuating them to other countries. we have managed to expand a little bit the space to work inside libya for those who can't get out but frankly if there is nor progress on the political front if military
