got wet so we had to go and stand where there's a roof and we didn't sleep all night. it's going to be that way for some time for this caravan of central americans they've got to take wanta right up against the u.s. border but now they stuck nowhere to go and nothing to do. some brush up on the football skills others practice their poker faces or explore the small playground for the umpteenth time. the clothes washing areas busy series of phone charging station at fifty cents a go. in a passes the time with the daily concert for anyone who cares to listen to them and that it will be them also it's a way to forget the bad moments that we've gone through with all been suffering so it's a way to forget that stress. they were queues for the country laid on by the mets can they be and the buses going to a newly arranged job fair but the semblance of order can't last this makeshift camp

is always full but you can see people are still arriving day me here saying there's going to be no space for anyone more. authorities say the city can't deal with the influx any longer sometimes people believe the newcomers bring only crime and problems. others do what they can to help it ok with them so you know i don't think we should lose our humanity at the end of the day where city of migrants and mexicans have had to cross as well into the us. that's what everyone here wants to get to the other side instead they're setting up for the long haul just a stone's throw away john holdren now does it or to. the reimposition of u.s. sanctions on the rainy and oil exports are threatening various parts of the iranian society but one business sector in particular believes it's very proof. has a story. the men and women in this room take saffron very seriously at

a conference hosted by the university of toronto experts are discussing risks and challenges to the industry rising market demand climate change and of course the one thing every iranian business worries about american sanctions. and i know we're the main producer and exporter in the world there's no alternative sanctions have no impact on this industry the world needs so they need to buy our products by legal or illegal means was so tin our products will be exported saffron doesn't need much water to grow so traders are encouraging farmers dealing with nearly a decade of drought to swap crops the farm to table process can be labor intensive delicate work but in the end it's a lucrative ninety percent of iran saffron is exported and a kilogram can sell for around fifteen hundred dollars the spices a key ingredient in cosmetics perfume food and medicine the international demand is

high and people who wanted will usually find a way to get it. sellers say that makes u.s. sanctions a buyers problem and. that it will know this year fortunately even sanctions have had an impact it's actually better because the price has gone up. packed into these little boxes is the culmination of hours of manual labor by dozens of people and that's why this sought after spice is so expensive so can safir on save or runs economy technically it is possible but there is a problem of scale iran does not make enough saffron accounts for less than one percent of iran's overall revenue from exports. still it's big business in small town iran and profits are up. and you know. though for some it can be backbreaking thankless work i want to point out. the harvest season lasts only

a month and pickers are out from dawn to dusk they say the minimum wage is not enough and they want a bigger share of growing profits but the key to them with me we live in poverty we come here early in the morning and sometimes when i come home my child complains saying i don't see you we're not even off on fridays in the middle of winter when everyone sits next to a heater in this freezing cold with force to do this otherwise we wouldn't do it help. while the government has poured money into helping the saffron sector thrive the benefits have yet to trickle all the way down the same bus ravi older zero four but the head the rear. it's.

it's better probably thank you very much we start with the latest on the davis cup tennis where croatia are in control of the final with france the french the defending champions and the playing in front of a home crowd in little but so far they're struggling without the services of the top three ranked players world number seven marion chile she's leading the way for the curtain in the last few minutes he beat joe wilford tsonga in straight sets six three seven five six four in the second singles match of the day earlier on bona char it sure got croatia off to a flying start with a straight sets win over jeremy shockey to go over twelve wrapping up

a six two seven five six four victory in just under two and a half hours croatian now just need to win one more of the remaining three matches to win a second davis cup title. world football rivalries don't come any bigger than that between arjun time clubs rubber plates and barca juniors the teams will play to the side which will be crowned copper limited or as champions this weekend and supporters are being whipped into a frenzy over the skein barca fans have packed into the bomb born at our stadium and when our side is simply to wash a team in a training session ahead of saturday's final the club's played out a two two draw in the first leg here two weeks ago these fans won't get to see the second leg across town of rivers monumental stadium as away fans are banned one of them getting too excited even for the first but fortunately for him carlos tevez rescued him from the cops and introduced him to the guys for the nine thousand season stadium was over capacity and they said now authorities have closed it down

for safety reasons and any victory celebration may not be held there back and rather have never played each other in a couple of it or is final before this year out it will be live a better side is at the moment on saturday. european football leagues will resume on saturday following the international break in england leaders manchester city travel to west ham they haven't lost so far in the premier league this season but manager paper says he doesn't expect there to last heading into a busy few weeks they are not the machines their opponents are good one game we're going to lose important is competing that you are going to lose be there the target is not to be invincible and being beaten that is not enough sent play good every day and be happy the guys where the people are which is in the game and try to of course when the three points we want to stay longer here if we don't win games. we're still on here meanwhile manchester united will be hoping to kick start their

campaign at home to crystal palace second place liverpool travel to watford former premier league winning manager cloud at any eddie takes charge of fullam for the first time against southampton and takuma chelsea meet in a london dobby. elsewhere on saturday the people of taiwan a said to vote in a referendum whether to change the name the athletes compete and at the olympics at them is currently chinese taipei changing it to taiwan is politically sensitive and may even mean the athletes can compete at tokyo twenty twenty eight when brown is in the taiwanese capital. well politics affects all aspects of life here in taiwan and now it's the turn of sport this is a very controversial referendum and it's stirring interest not just here in taiwan but of course also overseas now just a few days ago to illustrate the divisions this issue is causing a number of athletes took part in a protest they are against the name change they fear that it could lead to taiwan

being excluded from the twenty twenty lympics the i.o.c. has ruled that that could happen if taiwan goes ahead with the name change but supporters of the name change say that it's humiliating for taiwan to have to compete in international sporting events as chinese taipei and not taiwan and they point out that this place has been a self governing island for the past sixty nine years the voting age in this referendum is also being lowered from twenty to eighteen that's significant because opinion polls show that many young people are in favor of the name change also the threshold for eligible voters has been reduced from fifty to twenty five percent which means that a simple majority will suffice all of this of course poses something of a di lemma for taiwan's government because if the vote is in favor of a name change it means that legislators will have to present a bill for parliament to vote on and that will present the government with further

entanglement and of course raise tensions with china at a time when there's already a deep strain in that relationship. australia's rugby team are preparing to take on england in london on saturday hoping to end a run off five defeats to the english this will also be the first time australia where a specially designed indigenous jersey in an overseas match the most senior wallaby with the aboriginal heritage is kurtley beale but he's been dropped he's coached his bill is still playing an educational role. and i want to be romantic about that type of stuff you know it's means a lot to all of us and. and currently share a couple stories this week every time we wear that jersey we want to learn a little bit more about. and gauges history which it probably isn't taught to us a lot of school is much richard barrie and. he told us stories with passion this way can i go as

a learning more and more about that all the time and as representatives of a strider in the sporting field i think that's the right thing to do meanwhile in cardiff wales will host south africa took the welsh ninety three years to beat the springboks for the first time back in one thousand nine hundred nine they then had to wait until twenty fourteen for they second win but now they are on a three match winning streak against the south africans and looking to go unbeaten during the november test period for the first time ever australia's women cricketers have taken revenge for their world twenty twenty five defeat of the west indies two years ago the teams met in the semifinals this time around it went ok for them at first an empty year with the iliza villainy called out here by britney cooper it's an evil strain on a one hundred thirteen for five after seventeen overs that gave the defending champions hope after reaching a second final in a row the australians eventually posted one hundred forty two for five and rattled the hosts early in their reply the caribbean cricketers slumping to seventy one all

a saudi journalist. oh i maryam namazie in london you're with al-jazeera coming up a suicide attack is target china's consulate in karachi pakistan three gunmen and two policemen are among those killed. yemen's hoofy rebels agree to hold talks on the united nations taking a leading role in the running of the vital port city of the data we look at the political newcomer who represent the main opposition party the democratic republic of congo prepares for elections in december. we begin with breaking developments in the murder case of saudi. investigators analyzing the phone calls and movements of the suspects say the operation to kill him was planned twelve days in advance in the recordings

a third voice is heard which security sources say might be that of the crown prince mohammed bin so month so for more on this let's go live to saddam who's in ankara what more do we know about this. well maria you have been talking about fourteen phone calls that optimism of three of the very close security guards of the crown prince mohamed the sound man had with some of the cattleya who is the private aid of the crown prince and according to the latest information by the turkish officials that we have been in touch one of the four form for form talks. during that one form talks there was a third person in the phone conversation when mostly it was talking about what happened during the day and how hard they managed the incident to sour their catherine while he was reporting it saw them catarina was heard to be transferring this information to someone else in the room and according to the operations that

we have been in touch. have a strong belief that this third person in the voice recording and can be the crown prince mohamed man but i have to emphasize that technical analysis are being conducted in the hours haven't been concluded yet but in order to identify who that third voice belongs to turkey needs a technical support from the united states now it is a concern of course now we haven't been able to confirm whether turks have already asked for an assistance from the u.s. side but of course if the technical analysis conclude that this so was really belongs to mohamed bin some man as it is believed to be here probably u.s. president donald trump would be happy about that what further evidence has come to light. well there are very

important details that we have we have learned today. the consul general mohamed el to be in istanbul is named to be the prime suspect of. murder according to the investigation file that we have we have been reporting this for a while he's directly involved but along with him now there are three other saudi nationality employees at the consulate who are named as the prime suspects as well and we have learned that those people have left stumble after mamma the tape be left three days after damascus shook his disappearance also consul general is said to be said to have had three talks with some of those catherine in the private aid and plus he exchanged one e-mail according to the security officials that we have been speaking to but of course the technical analysis are ongoing and until now they haven't been able to figure out what the content of this e-mail is also what

the content of this phone conversation is because we are told that when when some of the consul general was talking about south africa danny they were using some cold some secret words that's why the security and the police who were doing technical analysis and weren't able to figure out what they really were talking about besides that another saudi official another saudi of course late employee who is known to be a member of the saudi intelligence exchanged voice messages on what's up with. with my head up the list and some of the catalunya again the contents are unknown but as the details come up as the technical analysis conclude the details we are coming to a direction that we are coming to a place that all these people involved in the murder case isn't and to rajiv mohamed and some on. all right thank you from i'm christian i'm kisumu well he's

foreign minister accused u.s. president donald trump of turning a blind eye to the murder of the saudi journalist no matter what investigators uncovered feels lou also suggested the u.s. only wants to protect its own interests and set the pressure has only been cosmetic . there are a number of questions that have not been answered the whole world wants answers to these questions the explanations given by mr trump saying i will turn a blind eye whatever happens is only acceptable before everything else we have to remember that there was a life lost here. suicide attackers have tried to storm the chinese consulate in the pakistani city of karachi three gunmen and at least two policemen were killed a separatist group the baluchistan liberation army has claimed responsibility.
