This is aljazeera. Hello from doha everyone im come all santamaria this is the news out from aljazeera at least two hundred thirty five people are dead after a bomb attack on a mosque in egypts Sinai Peninsula. We ask those who have families in the past to reconsider. The political sense if you can is that that is inauguration zimbabwes new president reaches out to the world. In argentina a submarine is still missing and hopes for a happy ending are quickly fading. And germanys president tries to break the political deadlock two months now after the countrys elections. So at least two hundred thirty five people have been killed in what is being called the deadliest attack in egypts history gunman bombed and then opened fire at a mosque in the north sinai town of. The latest in a string of attacks by armed groups now egypt is launching a military campaign in sinai president of the declared three days of mourning but hes also pledged to respond with brutal force and egypt is securing its borders remember there is the planned reopening of the rafah crossing with gaza that is now delayed until further notice the full story now with mohammed jim jim. The bomb and gun attack happened during friday prayers at the other older mosque in egypts northern Sinai Peninsula local sources say the attackers planted explosives and then opened fire on worshippers while the sermon was underway. For. Oh it looks like it was. Outside it was. Not really clear motive was i know its my responsibility yet but its very possibly. They have targeted suicide the last. Night. President im going to put that has sisi convened an emergency meeting of Security Officials has that had this these tragic event act of terrorism will make us more robust more strong of a battle against terrorism. We cannot be intimidated i will result cannot be dented we will remain more united hello we need to bend the army would take revenge and they will restore order and security with an iron fist in the following day. Egyptian forces have for years battled armed groups in the countrys rugged and remote Sinai Peninsula attacks on Security Forces have been frequent like this car bomb explosion that targeted a Police Station in a lot in two thousand and fifteen so really this i know theres been a lot of. Fighting between isis that Security Forces there for years now. And. In a lot of. Area as shock sets in and an investigation begins the Egyptian Government has declared three days of mourning mohammed. Joining us via skype now from new york deli affect me an associate professor of Political Science at Long Island University and we thank you for your time lets deal with the basics first in your opinion why here why now. So terrorist groups like isis or the well its sinai egypt or inside of a muchness storch we targeted restasis and Security Apparatus military installations as a way to target the egyptian regime now it is perceived that this mosque want to wage find or a family that was not sympathetic and actually cooperating with the Egyptian State so for their support for terrorist organization who have yet to know who can claim responsibility for it to it im the small but its part of history teaching apparatus of terror of any terrorist group or to attack the state you attack its symbols and now theyre attacking those who are seen as sympathetic to the state now if we take a broader picture and think of where this is for t. V. Creates its very close very close to the border with israel and it was supposed to build up a border was set to be opened very soon where you got three days now this comes after a deal that had been broken or inquire Obama Administration between hamas. And. So in order to attack this opening of the pursuit opening is also an attack on egypt becoming a important power player in the region and so by the closer it was one of preventing it openly its another layer of attack this terrorist group is actually a. State however as were seeing increasingly the victims are more and more civilians and so with an attack on the state the state will fight back and its no surprise to hear the president say things saying he will respond with brutal force i guess the question is what does a brutal force mean in egypt in twenty seventeen there would be concerns i guess about how far the state would go in trying to root out quote unquote terrorism. So airstrikes have already begun today in egypt about. Targeting support that mountainous regions where the perception is terrorist would be going on but this is part of a larger cycle of violence where a heavy handed state response with very very increased force and with this result is a more sympathetic leaning towards its sentiments about terrorists here egypt has had to struggle since the mid two thousand where up to two thousand and four two thousand and six and bombings of some to twenty areas there was massive rounding up of civilians and it led to really no trials no real accountability and so this rounding up billions heavy empted attacks on areas which are you accountability results in a cycle of violence and were going to see tonight is every just as every time a president has come out that attack and says the state will respond is that shes on equal to guarantee security and the increasing targeting of civilians millions who are now the direct targets of terrorist organizations only it is always a pleasure to talk to get your thoughts thank you for your time. To other news then after thirty seven years thirty seven zimbabwe now has a new leader and was sworn in on friday in front of regional leaders and tens of thousand people people in harare has promised to create jobs and compensate white farmers whose lands were seized but he also paid his respects to Robert Mugabe he was forced to step down for me to miller as a reporter for. A new and upholding democracy is now in this and one on god was describes his ascent to power even if it took military intervention to end Robert Mugabes presidency tens of thousands of zimbabweans waited for hours to watch magog was swearing into office and inauguration meant to cement the veneer of a politically driven solution from within the ruling zanu p. F. Party once again not the past. We do in the present and future you are a nation a different person. When i was promised to implement Economic Reforms that would observe the lives of millions of zimbabweans left jobless in a battered economy and work toward stimulating local industries as well as compensate the white farmers for the land they lost under previous policies has also vowed to fight corruption tall order given the corruption allegations faced by many members of his ruling party often from politicians we have learned that there is a gulf between what they say and what they actually do this in government that is coming from from the same party that elites know from his people two million jobs and really did in those years of need to be created when our god why enjoys from military backing from the same army that in two thousand and eight intervened in elections lost by mcabee ensuring he stayed in power one of the major things that we want to give up now is that we are faced with an election and what happens if this new president loses that election the military be able to hold ellis is doing good but i can say we respect the will of the people when gaga has promised free and Fair Elections next year he still has u. S. Sanctions hanging over his head from his time as serving the garbage regime for what it called axe to undermine democracy but when i got worse is now is the time to reengage with the west for people here president was certainly made all the right noises talking directly about the needs of everyday zimbabweans has moved away from traditional political issues instead addressing peoples concerns about his presidency but the worry is that zimbabweans could one day face a crisis of expectation with apparently well intentioned economic and political plans unlikely to work overnight from either miller aljazeera harare zimbabwe or. As you can imagine many people in zimbabwe never even thought Robert Mugabe would have a step down on which has been speaking to people in harare about their hopes for the country under president. Nearly everyone you talk to here says they expected Robert Mugabe to die in office not resign after the military intervened they had it in said every day on state t. V. They started to believe it. But now mugabe is former right hand man imma say when i got why isnt always a new president after decades of economic stagnation high unemployment and political repression people have High Expectations when we grew up and going to school in the ninetys we had everything i mean agriculture the drive down the roads down the highways it was. Everything happening he went to the Industrial Areas there was smoke coming out now when you go its dilapidated theres nothing going on there so we want to see that again just a very vibrant. Value was when i got those close allies say they are confident the rulings on a party will work with opposition parties and the White Community we have been reaching out to the opposition with absolute confidence that an older version has more than two hundred onan on an even keel and theyre going to be well known up in our business were also reaching out to the World Community they have been added to the modern economy in the New York Times some of them feel marginalized we want to observe that they belong to this country thats good news to those who feel the policies hurt the country economically many people here and the age of forty and listen and not what the new president will say or the right things will be jobs life will improve for the poor people of course is optimistic you know change if it happens from will take time no one knows how long itll take for the economy to recover some people say its too late for them they believe they will always be poor but they hope their children will have a better. The future. People are frustrated and impatient they say they are tired of being called a nation of vendors president has made a lot of promises he needs to manage expectations and deliver on some of those promises to convince him that its no longer business as usual. Aljazeera. Argentinas president says he expects search teams to find these missing submarine. But he didnt say whether the navy expected to find survivors the sun went missing nine days ago off the coast of southern argentina with forty four crewmembers on board it can only remain submerged for seven days russia is sending a new search plane but hopes for any survivors are fading after the navy detected an explosion close to its last known position and. Weve given our best in this situation its a critical unique situation and we have as worried as the family members you cant imagine what wed like to do for them you cant imagine how worried we are the most important thing is always going to be above all to try and focus as much as possible on finding and detecting the submarine. It was a moment. Its a difficult moment for everyone and obviously especially so for the family of the forty four crew my first request is that we get through this moment on the following days with the utmost respect for the pain of the families and to them i say im here to guarantee were going to continue with the search especially now that we can count on the support of the entire International Community with all the Technology Available this will surely bring us to find the submarine in the coming days. Or who is at the naval base at mount a platter the submarines scheduled destination. Even the news that there was an explosion shortly after. His last contact with the submarine on the fifteenth of november came about in a very roundabout way through asia in austria which monitors Nuclear Explosions this was not a Nuclear Explosion but they monitor the explosion pass the information on to the argentine ambassador in vienna who then relayed it to the authorities here that news with them broke into the families of the crew on thursday so they were extremely angry about the way the news came about about the whole handling of the situation and its now thought that if there indeed was an explosion onboard there is very very little chance of the forty four crew members having survived the search and rescue operation continues there are Something Like ten countries involved in the argentine authorities with aircraft with ships with very sophisticated underwater rescue vessels trying to reach the submarine wherever that may be its still not clear how deep it may be it was sailing at about two hundred meters below sea level but the area it was sailing in was very close to the Continental Shelf and it was it was moving to the east of that the sea there goes to a depth of Something Like three thousand meters if the if the submarine is indeed there there be very little chance of reaching its all or retrieving the receiving the wreckage. Plenty more ahead for you this news are in bangladesh and me and i have agreed on a deal to repatriate ranjit refugees but skepticism remains. After years of court fights the us Tobacco Industry is forced to fund anti smoking. And sport the battle to be crowned champions of asia details on that coming up. Germanys president holding talks with Party Leaders to try to end the political deadlock on forming a new Coalition Government social democrats in a modern shells had ruled out taking part in another government headed by chancellor Angela Merkel previously insisted his party should go into opposition but he now says Party Members will get a vote on any Coalition Deal dominic kane with more Nothing Better than for the past two months germanys social democrats have been licking their wounds after the worst electoral performance in modern german democratic history the watchword has been Opposition Leader Martin Schultz who presided over that worst ever defeat but said opposition was what payday needs. To find new policies and to reconnect with the electorate but the collapse of the socalled Jamaica Coalition talks has refocused peoples attention on the s payday and a chorus of voices a growing chorus of voices have said to mr schultz well perhaps now is the time to rethink that refusal to contemplate coalition with Angela Merkel and he seems to have listened. In the eight hours was spent talking with discussed openly the contribution the s. P. D. Can make a coalition whatever form that may take. The irony of the situation is that the grand coalition mr schultz has been so resistant to is still governing germany in a can take at capacity the question for him the question for angle americal now is can they find a form of agreement that can take germany forward because many leaders in europe worry about the vacuum of leadership that a continued protracted lack of Coalition Talks might bring and of course the doomsday scenario at the back of everyones minds is if they cant find agreement well there cant really be a general election until next april and so everyone is very keen to avoid that particular dilemma. Slovenias Prime Minister is facing possible impeachment over his support for a syrian refugee mediocre us says he wants to find an alternative to deportation for this man sixty year old or germany or a arrived in the country last year the e. U. Rules say he must be sent back to neighboring croatia where he was first registered as a excuse me as a refugee from your is seen as an example of positive integration having learned the slovenian language since he arrived. Coalition partners have threatened to pull out over his support for shipping. Human Rights Groups are calling for International Agencies to monitor the repatriation of ranger refugees remember me in mind bangladesh have now signed a pact that will allow those displaced to return home once their paperwork is completed there are about six hundred thousand range in the sense of escaped an Army Crackdown in Rakhine State over the past three months child stratford with more now from bizarre in bangladesh. There are of course a major issues with respect to the implementation of this agreement that has been made between bangladesh and myanmar with respect to the repatriation of bringing the refugees chief of which of course is the question of exactly where many of these people go back to their villages have been destroyed burnt to the ground hundreds of thousands of them across this border and they brought literally nothing with them including any form of identification and myanmar is insisting that an identification process must start it says that this agreement is loosely based on the one that was put together in one nine hundred ninety two when there was a similar outbreak of violence in one thousand nine hundred two they were going to refugees that came they had white cards now these white cards were proof of residency not citizenship myanmar government now saying that if the regime that you g. s here now have proof that they once had one of those white cards then they would take to eventually be allowed to return they also say that t
