And welcome to live from our headquarters in doha with me purana also ahead for attacks across targets and Diplomatic Area. Nigerias president describes the schoolgirls as a National Disaster while sending more troops to find them and fascists and elsewhere. Parties think a break for an election. Have expressed extreme frustration as the u. N. Security council delayed a vote on a resolution which demands a ceasefire across syria well that is now expected later on saturday russia has raised several objections which the other Security Council met. As a trying to work through one of them is timing russia says and mediate cease fire is unrealistic well the draft resolution calls for a thirty day truce which would allow a deliveries and medical evacuations of people who are critically ill and wounded while diplomats are focused on the rebel on klav of Eastern Ghouta near damascus which is being pounded by syrian and Russian Forces at least five hundred civilians have died there in just one week asama binge of aid has the latest now from guardian type along the turkish syrian border. In the last few hours the grim death toll that has been mounting in the last seven days in eastern route has crossed the five hundred mark weve been hearing from activists on the ground that airstrikes and artillery shells have landed in a green. And other areas of eastern civilian and residential neighborhoods have been targeted and many people have been trying to live underground for the last couple of days during daytime to try and go out and search for food but there is fear that as soon as they come out there will be an artillery shell or in a strike which will target them medics have been telling us about the grim situation of medical facilities in they say that at least twelve clinics and hospitals have been completely taken out of service because these attacks continue on a dog thing not just hospitals and clinics but anything that could sustain life in eastern huta people have been telling us that the tactic here seems to be this to stop and surrender but fighters on the ground and other others have been saying that they will continue to fight and they will not give up. On to other news now there have been four attacks and on. The out. In the west killing at least twenty soldiers and Security Forces have also been targeted and. And another attack took place and. I saw one has claimed responsibility. For sponsibility for a suicide bombing and tony has more from kabul. Another bloody day in afghanistan three suicide bombings at a large scale Taliban Attack on an Afghan Army Base the first attack was in kabul at eight thirty on saturday morning the target was intelligence building Afghan Intelligence building where people were killed and wounded this was carried out by Islamic State they claim responsibility for the other attacks were by the taliban there is concern i think especially for the attack in kabul you may remember the large ambulance bomb that was set off in january killing more than one hundred people but after that the afghan president ashraf ghani said there was a new Security Strategy youve seen on the streets greater numbers of army and police greater defenses but still with this in place Islamic State able to strike so thats causing concern and of course the taliban is beefing up their attacks as well is preemptive perhaps for their annual spring offensive which they always launch but there are so many attacks going on now that basically want to fence it rolls into another the United Nations has released a report showing that the majority of People Killed all civilians last year ten thousand were killed and wounded and its the weapon of choice now is more often suicide bombs and roadside explosions. The americans are here in force theyve beefed up their numbers theyre using more aerial power to try and defeat in particular Islamic State but so far it doesnt seem to be working and the Security Strategy certainly has holes in it. To somalia now where relatives of those killed in bomb attacks of accusing government leaders of failing to protect people twenty in the capital killed thirty eight people on friday the administration is praising Security Forces for intercepting a vehicle packed with explosives but has more. For the families connect the dead hours after the latest bomb and gun attacks in the capital its four months since the largest of a truck bomb attack in mogadishu killed hundreds of somalis the lack of protection continues to cause.

Drone strikes following criticism after octobers attack the minister of defense was sacked along with the Police Commissioner and security bosses despite that mogadishus in mourning again victoria gave him be.

Mohammad the heart of his current mondays abduction a National Disaster parents of the missing girls plan to join the bring back our Girls Campaign which was launched after boko haram kidnapped more than two hundred seventy schoolgirls from the town of chibok in two thousand and fourteen many of them still missing after what interest has the most is from and. There are questions as to whether or not the Ground Troops and the air operations will look at where they are your best state in particular is a vast area most of it a desert area. And its not far from the general public this school where these girls were taken in particular lies less than two hundred kilometers away from the general public and nobody is certain whether or not this goes have been moved out of nigeria to reggie or inside nigerian territory so the question is why would these troops start looking and its been three or four days since they have been taken but all the same a lot of people are sort of. Commending the government because that knowledge this problem early on unlike in the past when it took weeks before the government accepted the fact that these guys have been take the government will be keen to avoid a repeat of chibok of two thousand and fourteen simply because its Campaign Season starts very shortly and already it has gained momentum in this country the president will want to see this issue quickly resolved and how soon nobody knows at the moment but its clear that the next few days will determine whether or not this government will succeed in bringing this goes back and people will be watching what it will do also regarding the remainder of the chagos kidnapped by boko haram four years ago.

Hello there weve got a few outbreaks of rain across parts of china at the moment on the chart there for sunday were seeing some of the wet weather through term ching and down through hunan and goings zoom but those showers become confined to the northwest of that region as we head through the day on monday so more of a getting away with a dry spell of weather the temperatures arent too bad at this time of year either with chung do getting to around seventeen in force in shanghai will be at around of fourteen of the maximum now as we head across towards the west were seeing more unsettled weather here now particularly in the northern parts of arm up his the lake to system its made its way through parts of pakistan and into the northern parts of india as well thats working its way eastwards of fizzling out if it does so so not a great deal left to it as it makes its way across parts of nepal but then the next system is making its way towards us so here it is on sunday then some of the clouds making its way into the western parts of pakistan that edging its way eastwards on monday more of a seeing that cloud and well see some heavy rain make its way across the border to now here in doha were also expecting some rather heavy rain overnight on saturday that will gradually begin to clear on sunday so still a good deal of cloud few outbreaks of rain are likely on sunday but the wettest of the weather that will be over the u. A. E. And stretching northwards across iran. What makes this the spirit were living through so unique this is really an attack on itself is a lot of misunderstanding a distortion of what free speech is supposed to be about the context its hugely important level wise to publish if you have a duty to be offensive will provoke it would be nice people do setting the stage for a serious debate. Up front at this time on aljazeera. It is good to have you with us on aljazeera these are our top stories hundreds of thousands of people trapped on klav mia syrias capital being bombed for a seventh day as diplomats at the u. N. Negotiate a cease fire proposal at least five hundred people have been killed and over the past seven days there have been four attacks across of gonna start with at least twenty soldiers killed in the west two other attacks targeted soldiers in southern Helmand Province while in kabul a suicide bomber blew himself up in the Diplomatic Area and nigerias president is deploying extra song to this to search for more than one hundred girls kidnapped from their school in the town of. Hadi describes the abduction by the armed group. As a National Disaster. Now rival demonstrations taking place and support and against far right parties ahead of next weeks parliamentary elections well supporters of the anti immigrant Northern League party seen here holding a Campaign Rally in milan the Election Campaign has divided the country over immigration paul. Is a correspondent song a guy who is joining us live from milan now and whats happening where you are song here. Is about that the moment supports his head of law. Believe party here are waiting for the partys leader to arrive he is expected to address some thirty thousand people here it will be the biggest rally to date in this Campaign Head and it really is quite interesting to see how the lead to. Who himself has got a lot of support here is actually changing the party from what started out as a session its movement to get the north of italy to secede from the rest of the country but also now hes expanded it to include all italians are making a plea to include some of those as well a group of people some part of the country that has previously been very dismissed by the Northern League is even sort of drops the polls from the partys title itself now whats this perhaps its a top cynical ploy oer opportunistic one to gauge enough support from all over the country in order to be able to target what he sees is being a major issue which is immigration the refugee crisis had a tremendous impact and its the some six hundred thousand people have arrived in italy by sea and that has really had an effect on how people have been viewing these wave of refugees these immigrants whove arrived and believe in itself has been a very quick see capitalize on that and to capitalize also on the growing sense of xenophobia which before perhaps was also to some embarrassment but now seems to be the case where more and more people are feeling some want able to be able to voice more than a phobic attitudes and the Northern League believe has definitely top dollar lot to lose but there are rallies. In support of the leak elsewhere to sanya theyre not the only protests or rallies taking place in italy today. So. Whats quite obvious here in days before leading up to the election here is just how divided the italian political scene is on the one hand you have emboldened. Far right to have to choose which are. Really sort of being voiced in here in the country but on the other side as well you also have. Fascist voices who are fighting against that but the problem is of course is that the left is in crisis in haiti has been for a while now and certainly most Political Parties have topped in on this. Feeling and have certainly adopted that as part of their rhetoric meeting up to the elections as well so what youre seeing is really a country which is really divided along these lines as well and a country which is also gradually swing towards more rights wing attitudes elizabeth thank you very much for that for now that. Joining us live from that. Thank you. Now palestinians are accusing the u. S. Of more provocations off of washington and else the new embassy will be opened in jerusalem this may than expected or Donald Trumps decision to move the embassy and recognized them as israels capital triggered protests around the world roslyn jordan has more. News the u. S. Embassy would move from television to jerusalem on may fourteenth king not in a communique but in a tweet from israels intelligence minister. I would like to congratulate donald trump on his decision to transfer the u. S. Embassy on israels seventieth Independence Day no greater gift than that a short time later the u. S. President donald trump confirmed the news in a speech i was hit by more countries and more pressure and more people calling begging me dont do it dont do it dont do it. I said we have to do it its the right thing to do it wasnt december trump announced he was moving the embassy to jerusalem. And he angered at those who said the u. S. Was basically giving jerusalem to israel outside of final status talks with the palestinians the palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas was among those who condemned truff but at the u. N. Security council this week it was clear abbas had moved on he told him about the era of the u. S. As an honest broker is over and that its time to try something new and any out of grammar i would call for the convening of an International Peace conference by mid two thousand and nineteen based on International Law and relevant un resolutions with Broad International participation including the two concerned parties and regional and International Stakeholders one toasting a politician says the embassy is an affront to his community. This presents a very serious provocation to the palestinian side besides the fact that moving the embassy to jerusalem is by its participation in violation of national a us based analyst called the move in date very bad Foreign Policy rather than just giving jerusalem away to the israelis what he could have done it said we will acknowledge jerusalem as the capital of israel if you dismantle all the illegal settlements and so what he stand now it seems given away very big valuable check and essentials gotten nothing in return the ambassador David Friedman and a few aides will join current consulate staff at their office in jerusalem a new building wont be built for several years theres no denying the embassy move will affect any and all peace talks Going Forward rosalyn jordan aljazeera washington. A former. U. S. President. Has plenty to guilty of allegations of conspiracy and lying to the f. B. I. They significance of gates apparent admission. Thank you its happened again another member of Donald Trumps twenty sixteen campaign walks into the courthouse and pleads guilty to a serious felony conspiring against the United States and line to investigators gates isnt a household name but its believed he played an Important Role in the campaign and inauguration often seen right next to his boss like here preparing for his partys acceptance speech gates was the former Deputy Campaign manager for trump and a longtime Business Partner of Campaign Chairman paul man of fort gates was indicted with manna for it last october for Money Laundering later face charges of bank fraud and tax evasion both men originally pled not guilty gates joined the Term Campaign in june of two thousand and sixteen and stayed on after man a fort was fired this will put more pressure on man afford to follow suit and flip giving evidence on people higher up in the campaign he was in that critical meeting between Donald Trump Jr jared cushion or and the russian lawyer linked to the kremlin this is now the Third Trump Campaign official to come to this courthouse and plead guilty with that theres been a lot more talking conservative circles the president should simply pardon everyone involved under the constitution he can do that you can pardon pretty much anybody except himself it would be politically risky but theres another problem the special counsels been working with states attorneys and when it comes to stay crimes well theres literally nothing the president can do to interfere so far nineteen people have been indicted in connection with the investigation into possible russian collusion have flipped making it likely that more rests are coming and making it harder to say theres nothing here it discredits more and more the claim that the. Its just fake news theres nothing there of theres nothing there why are people pleading guilty they usually do that in order for prosecutors to get people more powerful in this case closer to the president whats not know just how high this will go if its possible it could lead to the president himself.
