A government after the socialists fall short of a majority in the election. Believe years now former president abel moralez heads to mexico to seek asylum he leaves behind a country in political turmoil and in school one of englands highest profile footballers has been dropped from the National Side after physically confronting it say mates sterling said emotions got the better of him during a clash with joe gomez. 5 palestinians including a senior Islamic Jihad commander had been killed by israeli airstrikes on gaza triggering the worst cross border violence in months funerals have been held for about how. And his wife who died in a targeted strike on their home overnight israeli airstrikes have also hit apartment buildings. And how massive facility in the enclave of fighters in gaza retaliated firing the more than 50 rockets into israel one exploded on a busy highway narrowly missing cars and buses a factory incidentally was also hit setting it on fire israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu said the strike was approved by his security cabinet 10 days ago ari force it is live for us now from the israel gaza border so harry where things stand right now. Well just in the last couple of minutes weve seen with our own eyes a couple of rockets being fired out from gaza territory about 5 kilometers or so behind us heading west they were both intercepted by the israeli iron dome antimissile system so still hours with the sun is just set as were heading into the evening the situation continues to play out of course as you say it all began early this morning in the early hours of the morning with that strike on. And israel says that this was not a return to a policy of targeted strikes against senior figures inside gaza despite the fact thats exactly what theyre being blamed for doing by many palestinian leadership figures they say that this was an instance where they were trying to prevent this man from carrying out further attacks they blamed him for a spate of rocket attacks over recent months which had been firing rockets into israeli territory and they said that this was a window of opportunity to take him out the israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu was very careful at a time when hes under immense political pressure of course having failed to win a 2nd election in a row in a decisive enough manner to try to form a government and with the attorney general about stood decide whether or not to charge him in 3 separate Corruption Cases it was very careful to say that this decision came very much from the military and from the internal Security Agency saying that they had been following this man they recommended this action it was agreed by the cabinet 10 days ago and it was up to the top brass of the intelligence and military to decide when to carry the strike out and he approved it when they came to him with that recommendation. And the question still remains then harry as to whether this was just a one off selfcontained operation or whether given the response from the palestinian side the rockets fired into into southern southern israel well this could escalate into something more thats the big risk that is attached to carrying out this kind of assassination of such a high profile figure and dont forget there was another attempts to kill a very senior Islamic Jihad figure overnight as well that being a crumb a jury in damascus he were not clear but it seems as far as Islamic Jihad is concerned at least that he was not killed in that strike his son and one other person killed in that strike israel is not claiming responsibility for that its not saying anything about what happened in syria but these are 2 very senior people who appear to be targeted within a few hours of each other that demands a huge response from Islamic Jihad there promising a much bigger response than what weve seen in recent months and hamas is also saying that it stands with its its faction its the the other major faction inside gaza and that it will engage in this escalation as well so far though the majority of what weve been seeing has been coming from Islamic Jihad the Israeli Military has been talking very much about targeting Islamic Jihad there might be a strategy there from the israelis to try to separate these 2 entities certainly Islamic Jihads rocket fire has left hamas in a difficult position of the time when its been trying to secure further easing of the restrictions on gaza from israel so the question is whether hamas really matches its words with actions intent in terms of a big assault of its own and whether that in turn could despite israels part of stations that it doesnt want to see an escalation whether that could lead to a wider conflict in the coming days. Harry for the life worse there on the israel gaza border thanks terry lets talk more about this now with jeremy bob is an intelligence and terrorism legal analyst for the Jerusalem Post he joins us live via skype now from moore dean in Central Israel thanks very much for being with us so give us a sense of of the calculations of the Israeli Security leadership in in this because they targeted assassinations like this we have seen before from from israel but we havent seen too many of them in recent years because theyve often served to to to raise tensions rather than do anything else so so why is this happening now do you think. So i think its happening now because from the israeli perspective this didnt start this morning bob a lot has been according to Israeli Intelligence behind several escalations over the last several months including just last week and basically Israeli Intelligence considered him the root of the problem maybe if they can remove him from us actually from the perspective as Israeli Intelligence is more moderate than Islamic Jihad theyre not directly connected to iran right iran has all sorts of things going on with the United States sometimes iran orders exotic see how to make trouble with israel in order to get attention so it would rather deal with hamas and Islamic Jihad they thought if they can remove this Islamic Jihad leader from the table maybe there will moderate obviously were going to have at least a few days of high tension rockets from the gaza side airfix from the israeli side before we know whether this will blow up into something more or is i suspect i think neither side actually wants a full scale were at this point so if both sides sort of operate according to some unwritten rules about not striking down a certain amount probably after a few days things will settle down as has happened a few times over the last year but what evidence is there to suggest that that strike like this war will make any difference in neutralizing Islamic Jihad because theres every indication that posts like you like the one that he had will just be filled again in time itll. Well im not giving my personal opinion here about whether were smart or not but i can tell you that according to Israeli Intelligence theyve been in valuating. Theyve been evaluating yassine water from some os other Leaders WithinIslamic Jihad the mossad in the shin bet have a fairly good penetration in a lot of different places and they clearly made the decision that even within Islamic Jihad and certain is relative that some us taking this person off the table might moderate things and basically theyre not satisfied there have been a number of instances over the last year where 500 rockets were shot within a couple of days so far were up to regret 160 today so this actually isnt as bad as some other things that have happened over the last year from their perspective of this at the end you have to remember there was also rocket fire during the israeli election season so politically this is a big issue both on Prime Minister netanyahu and ben again by the right right Benny Gantz Netanyahu is challenger right now for the government of these 2 whos going to be the Prime Minister or rotation and benny gantz also just a few days ago called for a return to his ass nation so there is political wide Political Support in israel for this kind of an action whether it will succeed or not and getting Islamic Jihad to back off thats any and nobody knows that well see soon good to get your viewpoint on they say you and i jamey bob thanks so much for being with us and you now move sad that is professor of Political Science science at a university he says the attacks could prompt days of fighting. This is the most serious escalation over the past 6 months. In terms of its intensity until this moment the last time israel launched an escalation against gaza was mid may of this year but it does also as it was reported by your correspondent in jerusalem that this is the fair start it assassination by israel in 5 years since the as wedo offensive against gaza and the summit of 24000 since that time is where refrained from killing palestinian commanders or Palestinian Militants and this is the 1st time israel has approved the s. S. A nation of a top military commander here in the gaza strip which opens the door for further escalation between israel and the Palestinian Resistance in the coming few hours and days in Hong Kong Police fired tear gas to force back hundreds of protesters targeting the citys major universities more demonstrations continue in the Central Business district they are burning ties in clashing with Police Demonstrations started in june against the plan to allow extradition of people to Mainland China that bill has now been withdrawn but activists are demanding greater democracy and Police Accountability in hong kong would be ago pollen is covering this story for us from hong kong in. She joins us live now with more on. Whats the situation where you are right now. Thats right 6 going to have fill you in on whats happening a chinese the Chinese University of hong kong i believe. Youve been showing pictures of the clashes between protesters and police there many because they are students and theyre wearing the customary gas masks and part has earlier of yars ago they were soaring petrol bombs physically tried to advance to the campus retaliated with tear gas d and the University Vice chancellor even tried to intervene and was also tear gas ive been attending dialogue between. The representatives to try and quell the unrest there it started earlier in the day when police accused sudanese of throwing bricks from a bridge that connects the university to the train station on 2. Tracks to try and take part in whats being called a general day of strike in the hong kong they tried to breach the campus grounds today and said they had no right to be on campus and it just escalated throughout the day with clashes between protesters and police now going in late into the night it seems there is so much anger on both sides and police have fired water cannon into campus now with the blues i often use they can identify the protesters. Students being always standing their ground and have sent out a call on. Social media and online opting for reinforcements for more support and the numbers have been growing so it seems like the standoff will continue at that Chinese University. And of course to these protests a big going on for several months now it all started with that extradition bill. To allow the Hong Kong Government to extra action by suspects to china thats what thats what triggered all of this and even though thats been shelved now this is become something much larger doesnt and this is all about hong kongs place in the whole government of china and their relationship with with beijing absolutely has and it is this has become much much bigger than that one issue that started all these protests this is not about hong kong. Maintaining its autonomy on comforting its trying to maintain its freedom of speech freedom of expression and now its also served in a different direction with many protesters along with their calls to sample a phone call met with hong kong and for democracy now calling for investigation into Police Brutality they say the Police Response to the protests particularly the earlier peaceful protests were disproportionate they used. X. Excessive force against them and so those are the causes that we have been seeing recently with the young protesters out on the people at the moment much of home kong. Its under gridlock with the many areas that hong kong. Having brought a traffic being brought to censor by the protesters the set up blockade in many different areas that playing the cat and mouse chase weve seen the please please is bursting the protesters with tear gas and even rubber bullets because thats running to another area and setting up located so this looks like its set to consume you. Not because theres a vote to set fire to Police Family here and even a train so it seems like those initial post a sudden vishal call that a rallying call for democracy is now moving into a completely different phase where protesters are calling now on the government is to hear their calls yet not really making room for dialogue for this to happen and so what were seeing is calling once again as a city. In almost a stranglehold of these protesters on one side and the government on the other side and then you have the police trying to take action against the protesters to quell them and instead they react with even more aggression giving appalling life for us there in hong kong on the phone thanks so much to you plenty more ahead on this news out im scared all the time it doesnt matter word go. Shes one of 800000 foreign students hoping the u. S. Supreme Court ReversesDonald Trumps decision to kick them out of the country. To College Professors in exchange for 3 taliban leaders a prisoner swap arranged by the Afghan Government more on that later. And in sports our china ease changing its Foreign Policy in a bid to qualify for the next football world cup. So all are still ahead but 1st spains acting Prime Minister has made a deal to try and form a government Pedro Sanchez a socialist got the most votes in sundays election but not enough for a majority now sanchez has signed a Coalition Deal with the far left party you need a spa day most it was the 2nd general election this year and though the socialists got the most votes a far right party also increased its share of the votes we need is live for us now from care only france spain border so 1st of all announcement are we any closer to breaking the stalemate in spanish politics that its been in place now for the last 2 years. I think were rather at the beginning of the road. To breakthrough there are several steps that need to happen 1st no actually of this coalition will be able to go ahead as it is now so this deal between the socialist and put it was the 1st step is largely ceremonial a sense that the king has to. Tell. The difference. Try to form a government then. To go to parliament and ask them to vote on this. Its also includes. Trying to solve the catalan issue they need to get an outright majority of a 176 votes at the moment between the 2 parties i have a 100 and 58th seed so they need this too short of nearly 2018 seats if they get the 100 votes im getting confused here if they get the 176 votes parliament then they can go ahead but thats very unlikely so at that stage they will have to do some horse trading tried to bring other far does avoid the best parties could be won but they only have 7 seats there was still the shores of seats and that there are votes rather and at that point they will have to maybe they will have to reach out to at least one of the gro independents catalan parties maybe this square or really care now which is more leftist bartie but they would not never agree to any to give their weight judas coalition unless they get something in return so were just at the beginning of something that could lead to a breakthrough but theres a lot of negotiations that need to happen to other of deals that need to happen. Some things to do watch unfold really is just to read the beginning yet whats the situation where you are right now ina catalonia youre likely to need to come down there thanks to the coalition agreement. Well i think its add those think that the 2 necessarily linked at this stage we are in they chew of this 3 days of Civil Disobedience Campaign called upon by the democratic tsunami here where you can see behind me you have the police. Cordoning off the protesters who are trying to block a roundabout that leads to the main highway they have been pushed back but
