We will never yield never waver and never falter in defense of our people donald trump bringing his tough talk to japan as the u. S. President begins his twelve day tour of asia. Summit take you to rhoda the hometown of sect cattle and lead a kind of push along with politics took a backseat to tradition. We begin in saudi arabia where theres been a major cabinet shakeup the same night as several princes were detained in a new Anti Corruption crackdown the billionaire investor ill lead been tell all is one of eleven princes who were detained. Hes a major shareholder in twitter twenty First Century fox and citi group hes been previously named in time magazines list of the one the one hundred most influential people the countrys economy minister and the head of the navy were replaced but perhaps the most prominent official removed was the head of the National Guard prince might have been a hes the son of the late King Abdullah and was once considered a contender to the throne its a move thats widely seen as consolidating the power of the Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman who heads a new Anti Corruption committee his father king solomon elevated him in the line of succession just four months ago well in other developments in saudi arabia the military has shot down a long range Ballistic Missile over riyadh the missile was fired from yemen towards the saudi capitals airport who the rebels say that theyre behind the attack very on a home and reports. Its not the first time who the rebels have fired long range missiles across the border at saudi arabia but this missile appears to have travelled the furthest hundreds of kilometers deep into saudi heartland and only taken down close to King Khalid International airport on the outskirts of the capital riyadh. The official Saudi News Agency is p. R. A. Said saudi forces fired a surface to air Patriot Missile to intercept it witnesses reported hearing a loud explosion and seeing fragments falling near the airport the rebels moved quickly to say they were behind the missile attack telling aljazeera they had launched a burke and two h. Missile a scud type missile with a range of more than eight hundred kilometers. We choose the time and place after collecting information about a target and it was khaled International Airport east of riyadh targeted by a long range volcano Ballistic Missile this is in response to the continued aggression committing daily massacres against the yemeni people. The conflict in yemen pits the rebels from the north backed by iran and troops loyal to former president Ali Abdullah Saleh against Yemeni Government forces back in two thousand and fourteen the who sees and their allies took control of the yemeni capital sanaa. But the conflict widened early the following year when a Saudi Led Coalition of arab countries state done with airstrikes to back up humans government in two and a half years the Saudi Led Coalition has launched thousands of a strikes the same a strikes that have been repeatedly criticized by the United Nations for disregarding the number of civilians killed and return who sees and their allies have fired dozens of missiles into saudi territory last week whos the spokesman told aljazeera that whos the fighters would target any country that attacks them. One man out the. Others that target yemen as far as we are concerned are fair military target from Ballistic Missiles any country that hits yemen militarily will be targeted. Yemen was already the poorest country in the region before the war nearly two and a half years of fighting has left it on the brink of collapse a crippled infrastructure abject poverty seven Million People close to starvation and since april the worlds worst outbreak of cholera the u. N. Says around ten thousand people have been killed and at least forty thousand wounded mostly from saudi laid is strikes this latest missile attack deep into saudi territory will likely escalate this long running and conflict medium hond out to zero has been a serious side car bomb attack at the Headquarters Security headquarters in yemens port city of aden several people are reported to have been killed it happened in the north nascar neighborhood no ones yet claimed responsibility for the attack iran has accused saudi arabia the u. S. And israel of trying to stoke tension in the region it follows the sudden resignation of lebanons Prime Minister in the saudi capital riyadh on saturday in a televised statement on Saudi State Television saad hariri accused iran and the Lebanese Armed Group Hezbollah of selling strife in the arab world he also said that he feared an assassination attempt against him iran accused of quote playing a game designed by those who want it all for the region lets go live now to beirut then a hoarder is there extraordinary developments there what happens now. Well like you mentioned extraordinary developments there is a political vacuum in the country and filling it will not be easy that is why there are very much what others are wondering will are sure to turn them out of tree the page why you know the political instability in the country and theres also concern about the security situation in the country now what happens now the president first has to formally accept that resignation after he does that then the president has to hold consultations with members of parliament to appoint a new Prime Minister now lebanon in reality is a parliamentary democracy but really it is a consensual democracy if the different Political Parties do not agree on what they call a consensus candidate a consensual candidate then there will be no political stability in this country now can the two sides agree they are so deeply divided party to his resignation his statements making it very clear he has no intention to work or to cooperate with hezbollah now if the hezbollah camp decides to appoint its own Prime Minister then this could hurt you know lead to some sort of a showdown so the situation is quite difficult if there is no consensus among the different marleen which will lead to a prolonged paralysis political paralysis in the country so whats been the reaction from from hizbollah so i know. What were expecting to hear from the secretary general later today hes supposed to address the latest developments but yesterday we did hear from an official from that organization a very defiant statement saying that the saudi arabia will not be able to do what israel and the United States was on were able to do over the past few years so hezbollah clearly seeing itself as the target of this resignation now what options are on the table its very hard to say and its also very hard to say whether or not the saudis because everybody is seeing this as a saudi the citron that saddam had he did not make this decision by himself but he was in one way or another told to do so this is. What the pro hezbollah camp in lebanon feels so the situation is quite tense hezbollah considers this as a target and we cannot see this as isolated from what is going on in the region there are efforts to curb iranian influence in the region not only in lebanon we have to remember hezbollah of course being an iranian island but iran in syria iran and iraq so there is this effort to curb iranian influence a saudi led effort with the support of the United States so people here are quite worried that lebanon is and many analysts are saying in the eye of the storm so many thanks david out of there live in beirut u. S. President donald trump has begun his twelve day tour of asia in japan meeting with Prime Minister shinzo trying call japan a crucial ally but two are expected to hold talks aimed at countering north Koreas Nuclear threat trumps tour of asia is the longest in the region by a u. S. President in twenty five years that will include south korea China Vietnam and the philippines speaking to u. S. Troops at your code base trump promise to defend American Values we will never yield never waiver and never falter in defense of our people our freedom and our Great American flag no dictator no regime and no nation should underestimate an. American resolve lived out of tokyo scott highlights so what should you world for today this first day of the asian tour school. It in what we just saw that speech front in front of those u. S. Service people there at the air base just on the outskirts of tokyo that was what happened right after he touched down President Trump and then he flew in a chopper over to a golf club where he met Prime Minister of japan shinzo ave they had a hamburger lunch and they played a round of golf with a professional japanese golfer that is over that and it just in the last hour or so so he is going to have some time now will be coming into the central tokyo and then later this evening theyre going to the leaders are going to meet up again for a private steak dinner in the ginza neighborhood here of tokyo with their spouses this evening so as we can see as you can tell that that today is pretty much a very social day for the two leaders their relationship has been described as very tight they have kept in very close contact over the several months that President Trump has been president has been in the white house that had at least four summits and they talked on the telephone regularly so today which is kind of it seems as though two friends reconnecting spending a lot of social time together but tomorrow is when things will get down to business there are going to be a bilateral meeting and then theyll be press conference after that about what was discussed in the meeting and possibly some announcements of what we expect to be discussed in that meeting. Well in that meeting we know that obviously a lot of the discussion will be focused on north korea security is at the foremost for both of these leaders thats one of the reasons they have kept in such close contact because of whats been happening in north korea with the Ballistic Missile program and the Nuclear Program theyve been in very close contact with that and also their very Close Military allies i mean japan is the United States most important ally in the region nearly forty thousand u. S. Troops are here in this country so its important for both nations that they stay very close in coordination it comes to any defense of issues thats obviously going to be discussed but theres also going to be some discussion on trade fronts theyll be discussed and possibly about. An operation with between the two countries when it comes to development in the Energy Sector moving forward the two nations working together in developing Energy Sectors in other countries and third countries so thats something that might be announced after this bilateral meeting on monday and you know im sure that theyll be other things discussed that probably hasnt been indicated over the coming days before this twelve day trip but right now today sunday it has been more the two leaders reacquainting themselves with each other and having a bit of a social time but again mondays down to business or here that press conference will be held after the bilateral meeting about two thirty local time on monday scott many thanks to scott have to live in tokyo. Were going to weather update next here on aljazeera then hundreds of refugees in a decommissioned prison camp face an uncertain future strain a turns down an offer to resign. Drip by drip catalogues efforts to build some of the Worlds Largest reservoirs of flooding in the right direction. Welcome back now the weather across europe is shaping up to be quite interesting next twenty four hours. Quite under High Pressure but weve got an area of low pressure developing in the gulf of genoa im thats going to be pushing through up into more northern parts of italy through into the alps so were going to see some very heavy snowfall some really severe storms moving through this whole area behind it some cold air pushing down from the northwest so temperatures really struggling for london paris and to double figures that low pressure continue to push little bit further towards the east over following twenty four hours but still a very unsettled spell of weather with heavy rain extending across parts of the balkans too now as we head across the other side of the mediterranean weve got some client pushing across coastal parts of algeria and. The two showers here otherwise weather conditions largely find that there is a chance the old show on the coast of both egypt and eastern parts of libya car theyre looking at temperatures very comfortably into the mid twentys so pleasant conditions into Central Africa heavy showers for d. R. Congo towards good bone so liberal could be quite wet at times further towards the west weve got a scattering of showers and i could see wanted to hear thirty. Again the top stories on aljazeera this hour theres been a major cabinet shakeup in saudi arabia the same night as several princes were detained in a new Anti Corruption crackdown the head of the National Guard the economy minister and the head of the navy have been replaced the billionaire investor prince our lead been to allow is among those arrested and other developments in saudi arabia the military has shot down a long range Ballistic Missile of a riyadh it was fired from yemen towards the saudi capitals airport rebels in yemen say that theyre behind the attack that iran has accused saudi arabia the u. S. And israel of trying to fuel tension after the sudden resignation of lebanons Prime Minister saad hariri he resigned in the saudi capital on saturday and accused iran of saying strife in the arab world. Thirty nine years ago today the u. S. Embassy in iran was overrun by student demonstrators who supported an Islamic Revolution the anniversary has become a day of iranian nationalism this year a bit strained tensions between tehran and washington a surface to air missile was displayed at the at was displayed at the celebration same thats ravi reports from tehran. Every year the iranian government and its supporters celebrate student day named for the demonstrators who overread it took control of the u. S. Embassy in one nine hundred seventy nine it happened in the aftermath of the revolution that overthrew the royal family and saw the rise of the Islamic Republic of iran. With the american rejection of the nuclear deal and aggressive rhetoric from President Donald Trump the annual event has this year taken on added significance by the means of told us that weve come here to say in a powerful way that america cannot do a damn thing and until the last drop of blood we will defend our country. And america we have no problem with the people of america but we dont welcome the government of america. Each year the old Embassy Grounds become a rallying point with antiamerican chances slogans. And the event is an insight into the ideology the iranian establishment works tirelessly to keep alive the events of that they are as important for iranians today as they were thirty eight years ago not just because they want to defy the United States but because the taking of this embassy a symbol of American Military might in the middle east at that time by students fuels a mindset of resistance that is woven into the fabric of irans national identity. And we can see how the government is planning for the future. This show of modern military strength is all about linking the countrys past with its present and a reminder to irans critics the Missile Program is here to stay one that was after repeatedly being defeated in iraq and afghanistan by the people of our region and inevitably the us is bearing its more mongering and on the other side of the world when intercontinental missiles are being tested and in Southeast Asia where Nuclear Bombs are being tested and threatening and bluffing trump just tweets. Many of the young men and women here on any other day might be found enjoying American Food and music in one of the many western style restaurants that are popular in iran and that appreciation of american style culture is something the government worries about. In the days leading up to this event to civilian and military leaders fiery speeches repeating the message so the young people dont forget for iran america is still an oppr
