A vacant post for the countrys leadership could spark a power struggle among tunisias Political Party is definitely what candidates who are considered to be quite popular and quite strong but also very controversial. Have been barred from running the president ial elections by parson parliament not too long ago this was not yet been signed by missteps and before he passed away and i think well hear a lot more about this controversy next couple of days president benjy kind a sense be who spent the last few weeks of his life in a not of the hospital was a leading figure in what was known as the arab spring uprising as Prime Minister and then tunisians 1st democratically elected president he helped draft a new constitution guaranteeing freedom of speech. And then to have his accomplishments though were often overshadowed by a weak economy and high Unemployment Rate there is disparate nobody can deny that there is the sense of hopelessness nobody can deny that however in comparison to other countries there is still hope that we can fix the pot and go towards a more prosperous than 87. 00 days of National Mourning have been declared as the country honors the life and legacy of a sense be the what is though the start of this mission on a positive note and he finished that the same way may he rest in peace his predecessors hurt the country but he was a good man who served his country no one did that before him no one shall. We hope the next president will be even better we hope our country will be stable and safe we have some terrorism but the country doesnt blame him its unclear who will be the front runner in tunisias next president ial election but the groundwork has already been laid out for what should be a smooth transition katia lopez so the yawn aljazeera now david take to joins us live from the capital tunis david is the transition going to intensify the political power struggle. I think without a doubt there is going to be a problem ahead in the 90 days before the president ial elections in mid september they were jew on the vemma the 17th so although there we have the constitution putting the speaker of parliament in place as the interim president there are so many candidates now putting their hats in the ring for september that this is going to create a problem this is going to create new tensions amongst the Political Parties so i think you can expect that it is going to be many many cases of this this thread if you like the president said see managed to we between the religious from the secular parts of the political spectrum could be under attack not only from within those parties but also because there is a huge legacy of a failing economy the Unemployment Rate has been growing from 12 percent to 15 percent here thats the latest figure we have and that of course doesnt include the youth unemployment is much higher that well into the 20 percent so these are all factors which could come into play in the next 90 days which would be very hard for the the speaker to handle as interim president he is in fact 82 just 10 years younger than the president but there are preparations being made for the for the funeral that will begin. At 11 oclock tomorrow morning from the president s carthage palace the funeral cortege will be accompanied by the military of the given full military honors and theres a long list of International Statesman and women being invited to to the funeral so far we understand that president emmanuel might draw from france will certainly be attending and Mahmoud Abbas the palestinian president will also be attending but getting details of that over the coming hours sammy all right thanks so much david change there.

Patrols that will be using that road so that on monday is these are just 2 of the buildings that were destroyed by the Israeli Military on monday since they when that happened on monday there has been a significant response internationally weve had criticism from countries like the United Kingdom france germany spain some other European Countries as well but also from the united out of emirates and from saudi arabia we learned a couple of days ago the United States did block a draft resolution that was being crude forward in the United Nations that again would have criticized this action on monday by the israeli authorities but interestingly last night thursday night here in jerusalem just a few blocks away from the Main Residence of Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu there was a small but very vocal israeli. A group of activists who were very angry that this did these demolitions carried out one of the activists told us that it is vitally important for israelis and for palestinians to be able to live together because they both as he said share the same land.
