charlotte dallas al-jazeera. lebanon's prime minister saad hariri has spoken publicly for the first time since his shock resignation eight days ago he says he is free in saudi arabia rejecting rumors he's being held against his will how did he also place to return to his country very soon zena harlow reports from beirut. this is the first time saud how did he makes public remarks since his resignation announcement more than a week ago from the saudi capital riyadh he sought to dispel reports that he had been detained the well being of lebanon's prime minister and his freedom of movement have been open to question in a live interview he denied he was forced to resign and said he is a free man and. i submitted my resignation is not the regular resignation process for any prime minister but i had to take some security measures to return back safe and sound. the circumstances behind his decision to step down united a deeply divided country earlier people used. to show solidarity with. some lebanese may now be convinced that he is not under house arrest others however haven't changed their minds clearly wasn't comfortable situation physically look. what he was saying was very. contradictory to many people. but if and when he does return it doesn't guarantee that lebanon's latest political crisis will be resolved if i withdraw my resignation as prime minister of lebanon we must respect the distance in lebanon from the regional conflict we should pull out from the interventions in the region. a few years ago lebanon officially adopted a policy of staying out of regional conflicts particularly from the war in syria hezbollah has been accused of ignoring that policy by sending troops to fight alongside the syrian government allied has long resisted demands that would draw its forces and it is unlikely that demand now. also singled out yemen accusing hezbollah of interventions that puts lebanon at risk. he said he resigned to save lebanon but the political vacuum his resignation. ated has only destabilize the country is the top seventy politician in lebanon replacing him will not be easy democracy here is about consensus and a candidate has to be accepted by all rival camps for stability to prevail appearance said comments did little to ease the tensions instead he looked more like a pawn in the regional power struggle between iran and saudi arabia said of. beirut jomar own as a policy analyst at the arab center in washington d.c. he's joining us now from there thank you very much for your time do you think this latest interview gives us any more clarification about the circumstances of saad hariri in the saudi arabia. it seems that raises more questions than answers we got few clues of where he stands on some of the issues we don't have clarity on a lot of other issues but let's just focus on the political messages he sent obviously he toned down the complete chip in his rhetoric compared to his resignation a week ago and he was very cynical as against iran and other stuff he was very close on your t.v. he basically said the reason of the shift of the policy was yemen much of the other issues you mentioned before so i think a lot of anybody's still believe what happened in the last week while his own political movement is saying what say why there's a lot of us and american and u.s. and french and and other than the national unity are also worried about his movement so we didn't hear the whole story and we have yet to see what will happen in the next days and weeks in this interview he did seem to make a condition of his possibly withdrawing his resignation and negotiation with hezbollah over its military actions in other countries given the level of apparent instability that this seems to have created in lebanon do you think hezbollah is actually going to be open to those negotiations. i mean the issue now he's much weaker than everybody believed that he was basically under pressure from the when he comes back he's not as strong as he left so he's struggling if he has a big popularity you know he is the more embraced by. either by the older goshi or by the yemenis people but i'm not sure how much they will give up this point because they believe that the saudi prince the pressure and they should maybe come back so i think we the u.s. pressure was effective on the saudis they thought the pressure he might come back but i don't see the political quests resolved any time soon but at least the the bush in the first of a little bit put some brakes on it now but it seems much more complicated but some of the issue he raise he has right easy he's right about them about the neutrality of the lebanese system there but his government those issues should be discussed but the issue is not by forcing the prime minister to resign over seas this is the question not the substance of the stock. we well know there has been a lot of speculation about our wider picture a wider proxy conflict as it were between saudi arabia and iran and this lebanon has been a focal point for that in the event that this circumstances in lebanon don't turn out to suit saudi arabia what do you think saudi arabia's next step is likely to be . they don't have much option this is the issue and. the way i see it is they are trying to do it offensive or to push the two weakest link which is yemen and lebanon while in syria they are fine they are not even in the game they are not even trying to be an obstacle in iraq they are engaging the government but it wasn't so they are basically trying to do and i think of the two weakest link and the way i understood the saudi message so highly today is now they only focus on yemen so they want basically hezbollah out of yemen they want more neutral issue on the normalization of relations between beirut and damascus and it seems open to coming back to government but all those are details the big shift if we are not talking anymore about taking out of the equation we are not talking about a war all the rhetoric now has changed and you have a saudi retreat basically and this is i think the big question and they want to be maybe more. aggressive on yemen but for me at least they seem to be more flexible in their but on now the u.s. is very worried about syria they have an agreement was russia now there they don't want the saudi policy eleven not to impact that so i think they they came to the reality that you know you might have some trouble at home some thought they were more but the region is much more complicated than there's a limit to what you can do or you cannot do jomar on of the out of center washington d.c. thank you very much. saudi arabia has asked for an urgent meeting with the arab league to discuss allegations of military aggression by iran to iran denies claims that supplied a missile that was fired from yemen into saudi a week ago it also says it has nothing to do with a pipeline fire in bahrain that temporarily

international calls for an end to the saudi led kade that's worsening a severe food shortage united nations says the closure of yemen's borders is pushing millions of people close to starvation the u.s. sees but rebel leaders say the missiles are homemade. we confirm to the world that the rocket unit of the yemeni military has been producing ballistic missiles for a long time now having learned from the russian scud missiles and also benefiting from korean technology and so we've become the new factories and producers of missiles and we are also further developing missiles that we had

twenty sixteen presidential election but writing on twitter he slammed what he called the quote fools who oppose better ties with moscow trunks codification comes after he suggested he believed to be

barcelona to campaign ahead of december's we general elections and he's praised efforts to honor spanish law in what he called difficult times john holl has more from barcelona. on a sunny altar morning in barcelona a marching band goes through its routines oblivious to the presence of spain's conservative prime minister you know who tell behind them. mariano rajoy was paying a quiet visit to supporters of his own party to those who want catalonia to break away from spain is something of a hate figure the man who deposed their government enforcing direct rule by madrid . should expect them and we have done exactly what any other country who respects itself would have done what france or germany do if one of their regions suddenly wanted an autonomous referendum. the party faithful were in clear agreement. was was this was a friendly crowd of catalans supporters of spanish unity vote for a voice governing popular party in december's regional election i don't you know i don't really never know just know it's not the middle anyway that it has to be bilateral and i'm sure it will grow but the. kind of thing that you need to fit the crisis in catalonia has done prime minister mariano rajoy and his popular party no harm its ratings are way up people pretty happy with the way the prime minister has put down the secessionist insurrection here and it's also had the added benefit of largely obscuring a raft of corruption allegations against the prime minister and his party in madrid . his visit came the morning after three quarters of a million cattle lands took to the streets in a show of solidarity for eight former ministers jailed on charges of rebellion and sedition to imprison civil society leaders and the government in exile in belgium but this bottle actually think that it was protesting over the holding of political prisoners in the country people who just want to vote and decide to imprison. the prime minister has promised december's election will restore the rule of law in catalonia but a great many people here feel the government has simply bent the law for its own purposes jona whole al-jazeera barcelona. well the battle of jobs versus the environment is raging in northern greece as one of the country's largest foreign investors threatens to withdraw canadian mining group eldorado gold on the suspended operations last month saying the government's causing delays and costing it millions but as john said opulence reports the government says it's protecting the environment. two hundred and seventy meters below sea level these men are digging for gold eight million ounces of it thought to be hidden in these rocks with more than ten billion dollars which would make greece europe's biggest gold producer and there are billions more in silver copper lead and zinc but these which is aren't yet within reach the government hasn't consistently worked through the permits as required under a contract and under regulations here in greece and we've suffered our share price is significantly down compared to our peers in the predominant issue is our investments in greece have not proceeded as planned el dorados shares have fallen by more than half this year this mill should already be crushing rock instead it's waiting for permission to build walls and a roof to house the machinery and now the city's a government has taken the company to court because it's only completed two thirds of its one and a half billion dollar investment it's the sort of behavior that is putting off other potential investments in greece and losing cities or votes down here. i'd like the government to come here and see what we do what we produce and see with our own eyes what we can achieve for the national economy if they do away with my salary today tomorrow there won't be any income for the very people in government. this is the growth greece is looking for salaries here average about fifteen hundred dollars and that twenty four hundred workers monthly payroll of about three and a half million dollars that kind of money creates an entire economy on the surface but cities are says it's not the only economy. these people will work for twenty or thirty years this isn't a sustainable form of development for the area or it will eventually run out what will remain for the future generations yes this entire valley will become an open cast mine pit half a kilometer deep once that happens farming and tourism won't stand a chance but mining is the biggest driver of the local economy and that full swing this operation would give the government half a billion dollars a year in taxes for a quarter century and double the size of the mining industry to seven percent of g.d.p. cities at once those taxes but it wants the votes to win the last election the environmental vote defeated the mining vote next time around the tables could turn . in the cassandra mines of northern greece a sailing boat made entirely out of recycled ocean plastics and flipflops is being built on can use coast it's being assembled using two hundred thousand recycled flip flops and twenty five tons of plastic waste from the ocean once it's completed it's going to make history as the first boat built entirely of recycled material catherine soy went to see it. it may look like an ordinary boat being built on the shores of the indian ocean in lima along came this coast but there's nothing normal about this boat. to make a building what they call flip flopping using mostly plastic waste and discarded flip flops. that often washed up a straw if it works the plan is to eventually build a sixty foot down like this one which is usually built with wood it will sell to south africa with the hope of creating awareness about the devastation brought about by plastic dumped into the ocean it would be a good message to the world because it's a moving object you know people have done different type of recycle things but it's not one hundred percent everybody says it but rain is a moving object it will reach to many parts this is one of the cleanest beaches on the coast local residents load trash they've collected for the last two months plastic bottles polythene bags flip flops which will be used to make the boat. the waste ends up in a factory in more than two hundred kilometers away this is where plastic waste is crushed off credit then melted using that machine and molded into planks the dow will need the factory receives trash washed ashore from countries in africa and asia and also rubbish collected locally. getting an end product that is strong and safe to withstand the ocean has been tough we are making the first. nobody's ever made of being out of plastic that's ten metres long no zero point two centimeters wide twenty five centimeters deep that's a piece of plastic so we have tried multiple ways of doing it mark what types of materials stabilizers and all kinds of things to make sure it gets better and better. back in line. and his workers give us an idea of how the boat and eventually the dow will look like. it will be covered using these caliph prints made from war than two hundred thousand used feet. they say they're not only

central government imposed direct rule over the region travel to barcelona to campaign ahead of december's regional elections but dissolved parliament after a declared independence last month. ok let's go back to that crisis in lebanon prime minister saad hariri has spoken out for the first time since his shock resignation eight days ago let's hear a little more of what he had to say. but i decided to. so to awaken the people to what's happening and that is that as if there was a heavy. my reaching this is the people sometimes i'm the worst stages of my life. and when i see people that i'm in the happiest stages of my life and i thank everybody every person. all the political parties. who want to go back some how do you not going to leave the country how you will go back to this country and i wish that this thinking not because it is the flood zone and politics but he says one thing lebanon comes around. first we must always keep. well as we said they were his first public comment since he resigned last week saying he feared assassination and criticizing the iranian backed group in lebanon and hezbollah when he returns to lebanon his resignation will need to be officially accepted by michel aoun the country's president own is allied to hezbollah he would have to find a new prime minister under lebanon's political system the appointee must be a sunni muslim and it won't be easy harry the lead coalition government was put in place last december after years of political deadlock the syrian province of aleppo is again under heavy bombardment by the government targeting the rebel fighters the air raids have forced thousands of civilians to flee the area and set up makeshift camps in the countryside some of binge of aid has more from tep on the border between syria and turkey. the war in syria is far from over. the army and air force of president bashar al assad and his allies continue to attack opposition positions in the southern countryside of billable province regime forces are advancing to secure an important supply route a highway that connects damascus to a city. in fighters as well as. which is why there are fighting to retain control of small towns villages. the days of fighting has displaced thousands. we don't have any shelter no tents no cover when we left we didn't take anything the syrian army went after us with airstrikes and now the children sleep there while. there's no water no power no roads just we move a lot for god's sake have some fun with just the clothes that we wear now here in a tent and. the used tents are not just for people from so the but also from hama province in the north around three thousand people in all. many here haven't seen any help from international aid organizations because the front line is close by local aid workers say they are doing what they can but don't have enough provisions and. the villages and towns in the southern countryside of aleppo faced a wave of civilians fleeing towards the east or one thousand seven hundred thirty four families from the south and one thousand three hundred families in the northern countryside of after visiting the random camps in the area we evaluate the humanitarian situation as a disaster people need tends to protect themselves in the freezing winter the united nations says at least one point one million syrians have been displaced in the last year the u.n. is concerned by the escalation there were strikes in aleppo and it led provinces and is calling for the protection of civilians. the fighting is continuing on the edges of the deescalation zones agreed by the united states and russia the opposition says that the government is taking advantage of these zones to target them while the government

sort of the crisis morocco says he won't take any sides asking all the parties to set aside their differences in the spirit of ordination rest back noninterference it in turn and. now the king of morocco is in the u.a.e. he met with senior officials the united arab emirates and i think americans understand that this is a very delicate mission that america has failed to solve the crisis the kuwaitis are still hoping to bring all the parties to for a compromise while the king of america has strong relations with the families in this part of the world who would like to tap into those relations and ask all the parties to negotiate a settlement there's also another element which is basically the g.c.c. countries can see the morocco a crucial ally and they have been committing billions of dollars in investments and also aid in morocco something that the moroccans believe could be an asset to help america that could bring all the parties to turn the chopped out of this

gathered at a roadside shrine about a kilometer from the sanctuary to pay their respects to those killed in the worst mass shooting in the state's history a few dozen members of the congregation gathered first but their ranks soon grew to hundreds of people from near and far flocked to join them who want to express our condolences and show it to to him and to his family and to the community that they don't stand alone something like this can tear one individual up but it doesn't tear up the family it doesn't kill the whole and that's why we're here one of the things that people ask during times like this is or they the statement i hear most often is we need to do something but here that something is pretty clear we need to fix this broken background check system i'll be introducing bipartisan legislation perhaps as early as tomorrow my hope is that we can expedite consideration of this get it into law and to make sure that this sort of thing never happens again and

that half staff mourning the victims of last week's texas church shooting thousands file into what is billed as the largest gun show in the world take. a gap right. in the parking lot of this exhibition center there are license plates from dozens of states visitors come to buy and sell guns and everyone we spoke to told us the same thing the u.s. should not pass laws restricting their second amendment right to own guns the person behind a gun. we need to get back to god before we need to go you know there are lots of problems because people don't enforce the current statutes really and force them on us for anyone that breaks the law we should stand behind it and convict them and stick but then we weren't allowed to take our cameras inside of the gun show but i did go inside and walk around and what i saw were a lot of hunting rifles antique guns and a handful of a ar fifteen which are assault rifles a bill banning assault weapons was introduced in the u.s. senate last week just days after the texas shooting and last month after the mass shooting at a los vegas concert legislation was introduced to banning bank stocks which allow guns to fire more rapidly so far this year there have been more than three hundred mass shootings in the u.s. defined as those which involve four or more deaths or injuries in a single incident but despite that passing tougher gun laws could be tom your job before. we're going to fix that. in states like oklahoma guns are part of the culture dave king has been shooting competitively for decades and now teaches classes like this one king says he doesn't see either side in the gun debate finding common ground because the way we see it out here the way the voters see it is you're trying to restrict our second amendment rights to us

coal mines and on and steel plant the country for more than one hundred years. this is the largest of the region's this use coal mines and back in the day it employed eight thousand people around the

one last thing on our homes. invisible hands. slavery in the twenty first century. starting december second on d w. this is d w news live from berlin a powerful earthquake has struck the border area between iran and iraq more than three hundred fifty people have been killed and thousands more injured relief efforts are underway in both countries the number of dead is expected to rise as rescuers

and could it be or even dare to italy and football's world cup playoffs the four time champs must overturn a first like deficit at home to sweden tonight or missed their first finals since nine hundred fifty eight. i'm seeing so much kind of thank you for joining us rescuers are scrambling to help earthquake victims on the iran iraq border at least three hundred forty eight people are. dead in iran alone that is according to state television thousands more have been injured or left homeless the seven point three magnitude quake struck around thirty kilometers from the iraqi town of how late on sunday in iraq at least seven people have been killed and hundreds more injured it came out of nowhere and sent people fleeing into the night. in a matter of minutes their lives reduced to rubble the quake could be felt across iraq from here in the eastern city of karbala and over four hundred kilometers away . but it was iran that was the worst hit this was the scene and western kermanshah province buildings crumbled like houses of cards destruction as far as the eye can see. as the clock ticked on the number of killed and injured take a wall fell over me. with hospital struggling to cope with the flood of patients the iranian government has called on people to donate blood. in north in iraq the quake was literally broadcast on live t.v. . it looks like there's an earthquake happening where you are. yes there's an earthquake i'm going to go outside i'm sorry. the interview cut short by the tremors as people try to get to safety. that's the night dragged on makeshift camps mushrooms across the affected areas as many were forced to sleep in the streets. many no longer have a home and even those who do likely won't be able to return anytime soon. earlier we asked professor mark allen deputy head of the department of earth sciences a durham university about the dimensions of this quake. well you know since the earthquake was usually large in this part of the world as quakes are common. and around me this will reduce estimated map and shoot maybe seven point three is much larger than way for cooling the last few decades and it is possible quakes through. two tectonic plates pushing against each other in the arabian places trying to go sliding underneath the eurasian continent so you have many quakes in this part of the world every year to six. wants is largely destructive. recently. now to some other news of france germany and twenty other e.u. governments have sealed a defense agreement they hope will mark a new era of european military cooperation of foreign and defense ministers formally signed the pact in brussels today it is a far reaching agreement on security and military cooperation one of its aims is to cement a european unity after brags that london has long been opposed to the move fearing the formation of a european army u.s. president donald trump has met with philippines later fredricka to territory as part of his tour of asia to terra has launched a brutal war on drugs involving extra dubious judicial killings critics want to trying to bring up human rights violations with her territory but it appears the issue was not discussed in detail. oh at a gathering swirling with controversy an unexpected moment of tenderness. will you. the filipino president pulled out all the stops at a gala to open the summit on sunday. i mean late tonight good news for you know what i mean thank you the orders of the commander in chief will be united states. the filipino rights groups say it's not just to tear tay singing that skewed. ahead of the summit the human rights groups had urged trying to confront a territory over his war on drugs a crackdown that's claimed about twelve thousand lives over the past year but if there was any criticism from trump it was not on display in manila trump showered his host a self-proclaimed killer with compliments and i want to thank you for your incredible hospitality and the show last night the talent at that show i assume mostly from the philippines was fantastic thank you. the camaraderie did not go down well with everyone police used water cannon to scare off angry protesters. but we believe that the meeting a lot bigger than the benefits for the filipino people at the diner was worse than the human rights situation in the philippines and the fact that it would be the fairest one they could not get it if the russian church in the white house said the two men's meeting focused on trade and fighting the so-called islamic state it said human rights came up briefly during discussions on the philippines fight against illegal drugs. well let's get more in donald trump's visit to the philippines so let's talk to correspondent ana santos in manila hi ana there is conflicting information over whether the issue of human rights was raised in the talks between these two leaders the white house says it was but the filipino government says it was not what are you hearing well the presidential spokesperson had earlier given a briefing two years of media after the bilateral talks between president trump and president putin and he said that human rights was not brought up the human rights issue is not brought out and therefore it was not discussed so that pretty much summarizes what the briefing that we got earlier today and i have to say that you know it's a huge disappointment for the international human rights. community who had hoped that president trump would use that as u.n. summit as the venue to drive to the human rights crisis in the philippines that's been brought about by president detect as war on drugs what about the reception that donald trump received as detectors government believe he really has one to trump over well you know it was you're talking about the protesters the message to him is clearly he is not welcome but you contrast that with the welcome that the president of the philippines president the charity has given him and you see really a lot of water you saw a lot of ribbing between the two men joking president child came in a traditional barrow took a lot he was also if you say been sprayed is using suppressive terms like tremendous fantastic so it seems that there is a warm relationship between the two men and that wasn't enjoyed by the predecessor of president trump i know we saw some of those images of the protests about where do most filipinos stand on donald trump. well the most filipinos don't trust him i have to state that. we got from a lot of the protesters was. distrust that americans feel for is something that they can identify with you have to remember that there are more than three million filipinos that live in america so the anti immigrant rhetoric of donald is something that is very hurtful and also you know something that a lot of filipinos are against so they see em as someone who is not an ally of you know the migrant aspirations of many filipinos all right correspondent on a sometimes reporting for us in manila thank you ana. france has been remembering the victims of the country's worst ever terror attacks that hit paris two years ago french
