Calling the program u. S. President donald trump says it looks like iran was behind saturdays drone attacks which crippled more than a heart of saudi arabias Oil Production but he says hell wait to see definitive proof before deciding how to respond trump said secretary of state might bump a ill be traveling to riyadh at some point to coordinate a response was saudi arabia says the attacks were carried out using iranian weapons but tehran denies that yemens who the rebels say they were behind the attacks and are warning more strikes coming well the full picture of the damage is not yet clear but chinese officials have been told that its all deliveries will be delayed and there are reports saudi arabia is trying to buy diesel for urgent deliberate. Begins our coverage from washington. President donald trump says the u. S. Is still collecting and analyzing intelligence related to saturdays attack on saudi oil facility. Yes but says all evidence gathered dust far points to one country when asked if that country was iran this was the president s response which looking that way will have some pretty good to. Have a some very strong studies done but its certainly looking that way at this moment and. Well let you know the spectrum said he does not want war with iran but said his administration would coordinate closely with riyadh and in response the saudis want very much for us to protect them but i say well we have to work there was an attack on saudi arabia and there was an attack on us but we would certainly help them but despite the alliance between washington and riyadh there are doubts about how much clout saudi arabia has to force the u. S. Into military action this alliance has been very interested in the past few months. On many issues so the Trump Administration and the u. S. In general is looked willing to basically fight a war and we have the sultans the who the rebels in yemen backed by iran claimed responsibility for the attacks on monday irans president Hassan Rouhani flatly rejected the u. S. Ascertain tehran was involved saying the who these were behind it and for legitimate reasons. The many people are exercising their legitimate right of self defense the attacks are reciprocal and the main solution is to halt these attacks the solution for the yemeni crisis is also political we believe that. President trump said it was a large attack against saudi arabia but could be met with an attack many times larger this is threatening language trump has used in the past against syria north korea and even iran without following through with significant military action but clearly tensions are escalating trump said secretary of state mike pompei o. And other Administration Officials would be traveling to riyadh soon to coordinate a response. Aljazeera washington. Has reaction now from tehran. The latest reaction to this events that have unfolded is that the Iranian ForeignMinistry Spokesperson outpost mousavi has reiterated the countrys position and that is that these accusations are baseless and its not the 1st time that iran has received such accusations from the u. S. Government the Foreign Ministry spokesperson up us mousavi said that the yemeni people have the right to defend themselves and the iranians are not supplying weapons to the who see fighters there but that it is saudi arabia who is the aggressor and iran will continue to push for some kind of a peaceful resolution in yemen theyve offered in the past to negotiate dialogue between all the parties involved theyve stressed that the situation is yemen is critical to the stability of this region but when it comes to the blame that they are being accused of launching these attacks the iranians say that they have had nothing to do with it and that the accusations are baseless they have yet to the American Government has yet to provide any kind of solid evidence or proof that iran was behind such an attack the analysts that weve spoken to here say that these latest accusations from the u. S. Come at a time when the u. S. President donald trump is eager to have a meeting with irans president Hassan Rouhani at the United Nations later this month when the 2 will be there but the rainy and some said that that will never happen until the United States lifts the sanctions that its imposed on iran since they withdrew from the nuclear deal. Now israelis are voting in their 2nd general election in less than 6 months Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu is hoping for a 5th term and he failed to achieve a majority or form a coalition in april and call an unprecedented rerun well now hes trying to gain more supporters by promising to annex all settlements in the occupied west bank but a sorry force that reports those pledges might not be enough to get an outright majority. Benjamin netanyahu had rarely if ever looked publicly angrier than he did on the 30th of may this year defeated in his effort to form a Coalition Government he rented anyone else from being given that chance by forcing through an unprecedented election rewrote its unbelievable other door lieberman is now part of the lift the sense of betrayal was at his former political fixer former foreign and defense minister ally and enemy for more than 20 years Avigdor Lieberman professed reason for keeping his secular right wing party out of government with his opposition to ultraorthodox jews being exempted from military service something theres an ultraorthodox Political Partners would not concede. Nurit kadar spent 5 years following lieberman for a documentary released this week finding him a highly guarded interviewee but she says it was clear that whatever the ideological differences between him and netanyahu their divorce was deeply personal the only thing the only sentence. He said was that friendship is something its for life you know it is some foundation that it really go through all life and it was broken. And it will shut down you know what lieberman has an explicitly ruled out joining the netanyahu led government this time around but his policy demands make it unlikely at best and with his secular stance boosting his position in the polls his status as kingmaker has been strengthened netanyahu spent the last week talking in terms familiar from previous campaigns of threats and promises the threat of Irans Nuclear program the threat requiring police of polling stations of palestinian israeli voter fraud the promise to annex the Jordan Valley and parts of the occupied city of hebron all of it designed to motivate his right wing base. But netanyahu reelection offers a better chance to fight off 3 looming Corruption Cases the parliament or knesset could even vote to grant him immunity but the polls suggest there could be a similar outcome to last time with netanyahu is likud Party Running almost even with the opposition blue and white led by former army chief benny gantz as a good chance neither will have enough support from smaller parties to piece together a Majority Coalition some predict months more uncertainty while each side tries and fails to form a government increasing the pressure on netanyahu his indictment is expected to happen in the 1st half of the summer that would be during the 2nd period of 6 weeks in which a candidate would be given a chance to form a government and if that indictment happens then that we could well then realize ok we dont like overthrowing leaders but now we have no choice israels 2nd election in 5 months is unlikely to be the finish line in the contest to govern the country rather the starting gun for the next round in a fight hurry forsett aljazeera west jerusalem and Bernard Smith joins us live now from occupied East Jerusalem this is a crucial election for netanyahu just talk us through whats at stake burnet. Well daryn yes here we are again and it is another crucial election all the main players the 3 main characters in this election if you like out now voted netanyahu recently and for him everythings at stake his political career is at stake if he wins he retains the premiership the Prime Ministers office and he hopefully will persuade his Coalition Partners to help pass a law that will stop him being charged on corruption charges lose and youll probably go to trial on corruption charges and face the prospect of jail so by him everythings at stake benny gantz hes standing in netanyahu is way galaxys party the Blue White Coalition of 35. 00 seats last time around the same as netanyahu hes hoping hell get more and keep netanyahu out of the job and the kingmaker potentially as are referred to as a door leading man hes voted as well this morning if he gets more seats he could be the one who decides who will be israels next Prime Minister dara and bernard on the ground what are you seeing at the polls and what sort of turnout of the expecting there that weve had here this polling station a steady trickle of people this morning since polling opened what 34 hours ago 3 hours ago one of the fears is of a low turnout of voter apathy quite high turnout traditionally in israel it was just under 70 percent back in april less than that and there are theories that and more of these votes could end up being taken up by the more extreme parties so that is one of the so all of the parties have been encouraging people to come out and vote the polls close at 10 oclock tonight theyll be an exit poll quite quickly released afterwards which will give a good indication of how its all gone and then we could be facing weeks perhaps months of political horse trading to decide who will be the next Prime Minister sharon smith or in occupied East Jerusalem bernard thank you.
