Canceled and tens of thousands of people have been forced to flee well go live to our correspondent. Nick spicer thanks for joining us demonstrators in iran have staged a 2nd day of protests after the government admitted its forces accidentally shot down a ukrainian passenger jet killing 176 people in tehran thousands of demonstrators including many students criticize the government for initially denying it was behind the disaster protesters say changes are needed to address peoples grief and frustration. Only a few 100 students gathered to tehrans most of the square but they were met with tear gas the government moving quickly to clamp down on any protests. Its a University Teacher appeared on a broadcaster loyal to the station to warn those organizing further demos that they would be responsible for any resulting bloodshed. But even among progovernment newspapers disappointment and anger dominated the headlines shame rid im sorry which printed the names of all 176. 00 victims of wednesdays plane crash. But they came clean about it too late and thats whats so sad we cant accept that for 3 days they. Have only told the truth now because they could no longer hide it probably because it was a ukrainian airliner. Irans parliament has agreed to an inquiry to name those responsible for shooting down the plane but for many thats little consolation for defying a heavy Police Presence demonstrators moved to other squares cross the city their numbers in the hundreds now but public anger in iran is growing and for some insight on this im joined now by more to zavvi shes the Diplomatic Correspondent in washington d. C. For the british newspaper the independent thank you for joining us u. S. President donald trump sent out a tweet in solidarity with the protesters in iran saying the usa is watching is that actually going to help their cause. And none really might actually impacted negatively or have no impact whatsoever we have seen in the past that the Security Forces and forces the cynical hardline factions have been trying to attach to Democracy Movement and protesters to the enemy to the outside to the israelis to the americans and for the american president to come out and try to show you this message of not deplored but in a way cheering the board. Could be detrimental to the protesters and also lets not forget this is the same president last week one iranians that he would target them including the cultural side and then doubled down on that comment twice after his advisors basically warned him that thats going to cost to the war so im also doubting the tensions of the president the fact that he might have any kind of sympathy with their army and people as opposed to using this for political. Ok well just looking forward us to worthing next step might be the American Defense secretary mark asperse says the u. S. Government is willing to hold talks with iran slanderers to find what he called a new way forward what are the chances of that actually happening. Well the chances are not 0 any kind of Public Diplomacy like the one he saw with the Obama Administration and this deal in 2015 is very unlikely now because the political cost of bad for the Iranian Administration is going to be very high to basically sit down with a u. S. President or administration who is fascinated their top general but then at the same time that doesnt mean fact channel 4 iranians have the political to a prisoner swap which washington is also in that in and that might lead to door to more diplomacy there are many mediators many other countries who are willing and ready to step in still we might see some back channel to diffuse the tension and basically take the both sides keep them out a cease fire but at the same time it seems like to iran is trying to wait president waited till the 2020 option to see what theyll be dealing with after november and can you detect an actual american strategy beyond undoing the obama legacy nuclear deal of the previous administration. No really and this is not just me this is President Trump own advisers here in washington warning him against us papa visors former defense secretary mattis general don for his former secretary of state tillerson all warning him to not leave the nuclear deal which he did anyways calling himself the best deal maker whos going to cut a new deal well none of that has happened as far as reigning irans regional behavior that hasnt happened in fact iran has regional adventures have gotten worse now theyre attacking bases where u. S. Forces are station and it just seems like hes more president trying to go on a more secular tour he had although he might be interested he might say that hes interested in talks and you deal but as far as his policy and where his aides have been pushing him its really the path toward more conflict unless he changes something. You know dramatic and his policies. Ok reporter nick are mortazavi in washington d. C. Thank you for that iraqs military says 8 rockets have stricken a major air base where some u. S.

Tens of thousands of residents in the philippines have been ordered to evacuate their homes after a volcano began spewing massive plumes of ash into the sky seismologists say there could be a deadly eruption of the taal volcano near the capital manila any day now authorities have closed schools and suspended all flights in and out of manila as international airport. A warning shot from top keno as its to use a column of ash and steam into the sky the ash plume generating enough static electricity to produce full cannick lightning. Although one of the philippines most active volcanoes it last erupted more than 40 years ago now experts say an eruption affecting a larger area could be just hours away the ash and steam have prompted thousands of People Living in towns close to the volcano to follow evacuation orders. Or more was all the hour when the volcano started blasting steam we ran away up here the road was crowded ticket with cash and pebbles were falling from the sky. Yeah but a little but the ash fell as far away as the capital manila some 60 kilometers north of the millis airport authorities grounded all air traffic affecting dozens of domestic and international flights. With the forces. On the top you will. As travelers wait so do the people of the philippines to see what else teil volcano may have in store. And for more now on the situation we are joined by the correspondent anna santos antigod thai which is right next to the volcano and how is the situation where you are at now. Im about 6 miles away from the al qaeda which is behind me and since weve been here this morning weve seen it spew clouds of smoke that were like white and gray and black its been both a terrifying and mesmerizing scene for the people around here in this area but still it is very tense the alert level is currently on 4 out of a 5 point scale so that means that an eruption could be possible at any time and. The volcanic ash that comes out from the volcano has coated the towns around this area with thick volcanic ash its very great and its kind of deceptive because its very fine but still it is very dense so large amounts of all kind of ash that can accumulate on rooftops and structures can actually cause it to collapse to alqaeda no to summarize is like a Pressure Cooker that can explode at any time you said 4 out of 5. Hours the danger level goes what does that mean in concrete terms what could happen. I mean that the volcano could erupt at any time that can be anywhere between days or a couple of hours and that uncertainty is causing a lot of anxiety among the residents here now what can happen i vulcanologists have said that theyre on watch for. Conic tsunamis so this is when you have eruptions from the volcano carrying fragments of rock that come into contact with water they splash into the water and they cause flooding in the nearby areas there also is warning of base surges so this is volcanic rock or fragments carried out of the last city of about 80 Kilometers Per Hour this can burn or bury anything in its path and then of course theres still the volcanic ash flow thats been continuously. Spraying. And the nearby towns its. Caused a lot of visibility problems for cars and so now the authorities are warning people to be to be extra careful because of road accidents that may be caused by slippery roads and reduced visibility sounds like theres all kinds of different kinds of danger possible has every possible precaution been taken by authorities in the philippines is kind of like unfortunately a veteran when it comes to natural disasters and its and largely because of our location here in the pacific ring of fire so usually all the Disaster Preparedness mechanisms instantly kicked into place there were forced evacuations that were carried out and thousands of people have been moved to safer ground or in Evacuation Centers the military has been put on full alert to assist with any kind of rescue operations and the department of health has been continuously giving updates to people about how to take care of yourself before and after experiencing ashfall but i will tell you that some people have said you know i dont remember the last time we had this kind of volcanic eruption im like an earthquake or a tape we have. Its kind of have this muscle memory when it comes to being prepared and knowing what to do and this is now what theyre kind of being very nervous about what to prepare for and how to exactly act for it ok well hope for the best.
