Tackled in public anger builds as protesters in belarus vent their anger at president looker sanka calling for him to step down. And welcoming back to wrists with open arms how brazil is trying to recover from billions of dollars lost because of coronavirus. Its taken 15 years and now a un backed court is delivering a verdict relating to the assassination of former lebanese Prime Minister rafiq hariri he and 21 others were blown up in a massive car bomb attack in 2005 the 4 defendants are not in courts theyre members of the armed Group Hezbollah which has repeatedly denied involvement in the attack speaking a short time ago the Trial Chamber judge said the prosecutions case relied heavily on evidence from mobile phone networks. The successful attack on mr hariri was carefully planned and implemented the 6 core red Network Mobile users were responsible for mr hariri as mota on the 14th affair be 2005 the yellow blue and red mobile Network Mobile uses observed mr hariri and his convoys movements in the weeks and months before the attack the attack was an act of terrorism that was designed to spread fear among the lebanese population it was committed full political and not personal reasons. Xina holders live for us in beirut is there a sense that people will accept this justice is being done and that there is some sort of closure to this about. Well it depends who you speak to in lebanon. Assassination divided the country sectarian there was terry and tensions and with the indictment of 4 men members of hezbollah theres really a lot of fear that people will look at this as a group of killing a son a Prime Minister so it really depends who you talk to victims the families of the victims say finally justice is being served but this is symbolic justice this is of course if there is a guilty verdict because hezbollah has made it clear time and time again that they are not handing over the men who have been accused and who have been on trial and now this is the 1st time that were seeing an International Investigation into a political murder in the country that in itself many see as a positive development because this country has seen many many assassinations and bombings and there has been little accountability zain you mentioned of course that this has been created such an uproar. Such an upsurge if you like in the lebanese politics is there a sense that that things are going to be able to settle down with regard to this or is this going to create more tension. Supporters of hezbollah and how do you get called on their supporters to remain calm and to be patient and not to take to the streets they both know how serious this this is because if there is a guilty verdict like we mentioned it could revive sunday and tensions and it could spill onto the street so they understand but at the end of the day there is a political crisis in lebanon. In fact there has been a political crisis ever since how did it was killed there has been instability ever since because this country is divided into 2 camps the government resigned just a few days ago following the explosion at beirut port following popular anger but to create a new government that means one of 2 things either the different political factions have to Work Together and it will they Work Together we all have to wait to see how the former Prime Minister is thought of how did this son of the slain Prime Minister is going to react hes expected to make a statement after the verdict but at the end of the day hes been acting like a statesman because he knows that he may have to work with hezbollah as a group in government in the near future as in a holder live for us in Beirut Center thank you very much indeed but the rooster is bracing for a 10th straight day of protests as pressure grows on president Alexander Lukashenko to step down after 26 years in power on monday he told striking workers there wont be new elections unless his opponents kill and demonstrators have been calling for his resignation off to are disputing votes and always the nines some boston reports from the capital mints. Strikes are now snowballing around better lives one after the other factory workers joining in Truck Tractor metal fact with most of the country Strategic Industries are now experiencing large scale strikes. On yet what we dont agree with in justice the people in power havent listened to him for 26 years they run away they dont want to listen to your voice they dont want to know anything about your problems. But the workers chanting no more fear signed it after 26 years of living under look or shank this after repairing rule they are ready for change marcus has now at the factory urging was to try and guess right and you can actually see people coming out from inside the factory also president look at shank that was in his face right workers who resigned in an unprecedented move workers started shouting at the president a man who has long been referred to as the father of the nation. He was it is a thank you i said everything you can shout go away. Even previously most loyal media like balanced television went on strike broadcasting an empty studio in the morning protesters gathered to pressure the station to stop airing government propaganda and start telling the truth including about a Violent Police crackdown last week during election protests if.

Channel so theres a reason its impossible work like these possible say the office of truth not even how what small part of truth look i shankar who initially refused new elections is now keeping options open but only he sat after the constitution has been changed a process which could take years protesters see this as a way for the president to buy time and trying to cling onto power they say they want him out now step class and aljazeera minsk. The Reuters News Agency reporting there is a possible military mutiny thats happening outside monny its capital bamako the information just coming in right as is sizing a Security Source and a lot from the Norwegian Embassy gunshots were being told are being heard around an army base in the county thats just outside the capital lets go to ahmed idris whos following developments for us there on that what more do we know about whats happening here. Well basically this is what sources inside burma quite confirming in the day we heard stories that president of a worker has been taken to a secure location but before that the minister of finance and economy was supported been taken from his office early in the morning by security personnel its not clear whether those security personnel who are part of the president will because his security detail or they belong to the mutineers the reports we are we receiving now that the mutineers have advanced on the t. Which is a military zone 15 kilometers from the capital bamako and there are some reports that suggest that they are advancing towards. Solve trying to take control of the military command and command and control center in bomb a quick fix to believe this could be a coup detat but right now its not clear what the situation is like in burma call but these things have been good on since the early hours of today theyve been reported a gun shots fired out on the military zone in kutty and from us already and no way have advised their citizens living in in mali especially in bamako area to stay at home so weve spoken with some sources inside because the Economic Community of West African States which has been trying to mediate in the crisis in much mali for the past one month but unfortunately those talks. Come to nothing we will position restarting protest last week a source inside because hes telling us the big series of meetings and they may not be connected with the latest developments it mildly but so far a course has not issued any statement regarding the situation in but michael what we know is that protests have been happening in burma in mali especially in the city of buckle since june trying to force president to leave Office Following the parliamentary elections which the opposition claimed was raked in favor of the president s party so thats the situation right now we are expecting probably in the next few hours and coarse and probably a you will issue a statement to get in the state the situation in mali but we know they usually issue statements or position after a coup detat is formally declared amid thanks very much indeed thats the disappearing up to us up to speed with the reports that there is a possible military mutiny happening outside malis capital bamako obviously thats a developing story as we get more details well bring them to you nearly 2000000 people in gaza are facing power shortages as the only power plant there is forced to shut down thats because israel has cut off fuel shipments to the territory israel says its in the spawns to rocket attacks and fire bombs by the Palestinian Group hamas which controls gaza how many false and has more from west to receive them and what impact the power cuts are likely to have. That would mean that the amount of electricity being supplied would be reduced to just 3 or 4 hours on and then up to 16 hours off so that is something that affects of course the whole industry and society will affect some 2000000 people are also talking about the impact on Sewage Treatment but that will have to end and it will mean a return to pumping last amounts to rule sewage straight out into the mediterranean of the time of course in high summer when people do use garzas beaches as a bit of a respite from the heat and the immunity this is all tied to the recent rise in tensions which is included rocket attacks which is included those incendiary balloons and overnight a 7th straight night of israeli airstrikes on gaza israel saying it targeted underground targets infrastructure belonging to that has been attempts to mediate an egyptian delegation was inside gaza on monday they returned to israel with a series of demands from hamas including help with Infrastructure Projects allowing more material into the strip allowing workers once again to go out and work inside israel blows out of course been shut down by coronavirus addictions among other things and so much now depends on how that egyptian mediation goers still ahead and aljazeera.
