of course, the truth and travels to north korea for the 1st time in 24 years aiming to boost with and supplies as the war and ukraine drags on the hello. i'm jessica washington. this is under the red light from to ha also coming out. protest is rally outside these rarely prime ministers home as opposition, melons against his handling of the cause of the entire palestinian families of being wives. ours have a will. and goza is killing multiple generations. a trick who is interested does it does for as a humanitarian crisis,

that deepens the last on the stronghold in the region from mains on the stage. the will begin in north korea. wave russian president vladimir fusion will soon arrive for a trip aimed at strengthening ties and developing trade. that avoids wisdom sanctions put and pledged his unwavering support for north korea in a letter published just ahead of his visits. they expressed his thanks to which lita came, joan for supporting most goes invasion of ukraine is putting his 1st trip to north korea in 24 years and he'll stay for 2 days before heading on to vietnam. tony chang reports. well, that's all to stop henry. north korean president, tim john, celebrating russia's national day in killing. yeah, we're not russia. he said, wasn't in that simple ally, head of a visit to asia by that i'm impotent on the tap. the significance to me is that you

know mr. pollutant is traveling around like i is a statesman, he has the allies, he has partners, he's in the brakes, he's making moves, and those are the thing that he's losing the war. i may have to think again, this 1st visit is to north korea. the 2 leaders who don't travel much, president kim and puts in a well acquainted visit to russia last year by kim john. seems to have submitted an agreement to buy weapons from pre own yang. in february, ukrainian prosecutor said russia deployed 24 north korean ballistic missiles, although most missed their intended targets. 14 people were killed in 17 inches in the attempt. the next step is vietnam to alum, a pointed president in the last month, will be eager to welcome one of vietnam's closest historical allies assigned the recent political turbulence. this settled down. betcha,

is one of the major power of the world. besides the u. s. china and even india. so i think that's why that and i'm try to keep the very strong try and close time of the relation between the 2 countries. but more than vietnam has made new alliances . diplomatic relations have flourished with old enemies, accounts of balance to china, us warships, a welcome to vietnam. these waters pollutants visit may not be well received by vietnam's, new friends. vietnam actually has moved west close to the us to the west in some ways, but not on the russian aggression. so the put in visit the woods, that'd be a bind for, for getting them to, to hold and carry out. this balancing act to be hotter with russia holds one important called china india, vietnam even sing a pool. a major consume is of russian fossil pills. and that slightly to mean

vladimir putin receive a warm welcome on his agent to tony cheng elder 0 as well. i'd like to introduce you to send me a party who is a visiting lecturer in wolf studies at kings college london. he's also the author of russia's road to vote with ukraine, and he joins us now live from single ports. i'm here to thank you so much for joining us. we mentioned that letter earlier on that was published in north korean state media. i'll just read a short section of it, the less it by letting me approve, and we will develop alternative mechanisms of trade and mutual settlements that are not controlled by the west and resist the limit illegitimate unilateral sanctions. basically the overall theme of this letter, it seems to be that from fitness to effective north korea and russia share a common goal in rejecting the existing world order. is that how you read the letter as well? yes, well thanks for having me. clearly, people who are critical to part of these countries say that north korea's fates is

the home. it kingdom is russia's destiny. it too is being cuts off from the west and lead level financial system. so that's really where this of the direct phone, the shit comes from because they are both price states that north korea has been on the international sanctions for decades. now russia since the full scale innovation and stuff is extreme sanctions as well. so we'll be looking at things like the transfer of money between the 2. they're looking at that trading relationship. the relationship at the moment is, has blossomed in terms of defense supplies, but i think pizza in district will probably see some announcements, some things of the defense related in terms of partnerships, economic scholarships, between these 2 countries. a said an indication that letting me put in is feeling increasingly isolated on the world stage. and of course the context of this is just very recently there was the piece summit organized by ukraine, held in switzerland. that, of course, russia was not invited to. so yeah, i think that's

a really important points and of course projects of brochure and there are many of them, but i'm pretty guess what you're saying that when you're running out of friends that you or any friend, this is kim jones through and then so you have to travel to north korea, but so we shouldn't underestimate the importance of those career to brochure. they do also share a relatively small order placed a lot of whole stop. it's one of the few instances where i 1st came jones, inside of it boots, and we'll have a great each other with the here as welcome. and the final authorization in terms of the installation of these 2 countries as they each have strong relationships with the people's republic of china. so all of these sort of concerns about some of those access level or it's erin states, some sort of whole sentence at world war to, to, that's what she's being led by the west really comes into focus with his visit. and so the last section on this is of course with the switch piece on it, which is the main as an excuse, big chunks to have his friends and support to speak and support of ukraine. it's really important to remember that it was rather to be lower levels, levels of participation from asian state. so it wasn't absent,

but it wasn't really something it was endorsed by by major asian. so that's the states and well leaders and frank printers of those asian states. and i suppose this is specific also to the all the on region south east asian nations put president, put move of course, upon completing his visit in north creation. we're going to vietnam and vietnam is of course in a very different situation. of course, it's not a prize state, it's actually a country where we see it has become a hot split of diplomatic activity. president biden didn't visiting recently, followed very shortly by president. she didn't ping a now president. yes, the americans have already pulled the babies much plays events i think any more to expect. they've given that trouble of history and lloyd austin, us defense secretary and all this book visited vietnam. the vietnam is doing a mix and match where it's trying to mix and match as partnerships with the eastern and western states. and it feels they need to choose and in that regard, there are many other examples around the world, but you don't really the country doesn't feel the need to exist. probably be

upstairs position very quickly is complex. they have this huge issue with the chinese. like for the war against them in 1979, but they have reasonable relations with, with russia clearly, and also have the usa. so i think that's a sign of g at politics today. you can mix and match your friends like this, send me your thank you so much for your analysis, i'm sure will speak to as we follow this visit that send me a prudery who is a visiting lecturer at the king's college in london. the at least 9 people have been arrested during protests near the home of his rails prime minister benjamin netanyahu. right? police do use water cannon and in an attempt to control the demonstrators. thousands gathered approaches across the country and the cooling early elections and to cease by ideal in gaza. organizes have planned a week of demonstrations. netanyahu disbanded the wood cabinet on monday off to

benny guns quitted the group corrects, have been showing within the israeli government on the military strategy in gaza. honda salut reports that it's too soon to know what effect the protests will have on the government. and israel has banned out his ear from reporting that so honda is reporting from jordan's capital on, so they have been quite disruptive just 2 days into the week. they started off on monday with blocking major roads in big cities all throughout israel and in west jerusalem outside these really parliament, massive demonstrations that ended in a march to these really prime ministers house, where at least 9 protesters were arrested. several others were injured. as is really police use water cannon to try and disperse these demonstrators who are calling for new leadership. one of those arrest is actually a family member of a captive still being held in gauze. now these protesters are asking for

a lot of different things. they're not just asking for new leadership, new governance, but they're also asking for new elections to be held immediately and calling on the government to to accept any sort of ceasefire deal on the table that will ultimately end the war hours earlier in the day. we did see in one is really parliament committee, families of is really captives essentially scolding the government, saying they're incredibly disappointed with the lack of decision making. and the absence of true leadership protests are expected to continue throughout the entire week. a reminder, again that these really government has banned up to 0 from operating in israel. and that's why honda was reporting from jordan. well, journalist all of a mazda and has moved from bay route on an is rarely drone strike that has killed a member of has the law in southern lebanon as this morning. there wasn't really a minute to strike on southern oven and there was a drones pipe on

a car. now it has cooled off quite a name to my home and i was killed in that strike. this has confirmed what has law and he is the 300 and 42nd has been appointed to have died since october. the 8th no. the is there any minute treat saying that he was the member of the rocket unit, part of the not subdivision of has the course as usual headquarters thing, tight lips and there's not some time this. this comes today, this is one of at least 8 strikes. 5 is really ministry on the southern level, not including in the town. if i to a shop which has been homeless reduced to rubble in the strikes. now this follows a week of intense strikes and uptake in the cross for the tit for tat and strikes my husband on the is really military following is early as estimation of color, semi abdullah has the come on. now the strikes are continuing and the last 48 hours

has been to him tons of stripes of the last week. but as i said, having so many strides from 8 or 9 strikes today on the ground in gaza is really forces account at least 9 people east. a for alpha, the city was headed by a series of strikes on monday. all is really tanks shelled a market many palestinians forced from the homes, remain in the southern part of the strip as a new investigation has found that between october and december last year, at least 60 palestinian families lost 25 or more members of this family. in his really bombings in gaza, fee associated press news agency analyzed 10 of the deadliest is rarely strikes between october 7th and december 24. they collectively killed more than 500 people . the a p says notice the strikes appear to target a military objective. no, was

a direct warning given to those inside mainly residential buildings. one family last at least 217 members. in an attack on the densely populated, giovanni a refugee camp is rarely bones wiped out an entire block of buildings. nearly 40 members of the same family lost in lives. gauze health ministry says 300 palestinian families have lost more than 10 members. doubled the number of affected during the 51 day war. in 2014. israel says it takes measures to mitigate against civilian casualties. but the world's top called the international court of justice is considering whether israel is committing genocide in gaza. i add up to us is the accountability program director with defense for children, palestine. he says, israel is deliberately targeting civilians in gaza. the emitter fills the incidents, there is no water name to from the side. so uh those, uh,

some it is uh and all of my store orders that documentation indicated that the display as was thought to get that without the snap a water tank. and uh, what's that, so that can involve many of the doors from it is among them at the end. so, and this is one of the questions about the, what a few political us got the family as well as the family member or more. without it the they are to see a warning or not. and in other incidents, the inform us that the literacy of government, but the time spent, was not enough in order to effect you with the place that has been thought to get that. or the net bought a house or a building was started, get that without that, that knowledge. so what it is that a, it is, it's not the initial to what i understand. yes. on the contrary, we believe that the body of the military is the strategy as

to claim the life of civilians in order to push to but the pressure on the resistance, the group in order that to a certain done. and this explains the high number of schedule, it is a month so 1000000000 among them to that. this is rarely phones has been banned from one of the worlds biggest exhibitions. host from says it's defense, ministry is opposed to israel's assault on guns, a southern city of rafa. discussion about the live reports from paris. one of the world's biggest on says your century and bill company, our companies for more than a 100 countries exhibiting the latest weapons defense technology. but missing this year is randy companies and by the french government 2 weeks ago, because the deposed is israel as operation in russia last week of french quote, whole se band, any attendees. the could be linked to is ray,

the arms firms. the events organizes explained the ruling in this letter. we hear by inform you the chorus events had been subject of a court decision. they to june 14, 2024, requiring to prohibits employees representative. so this really companies that your salary trade show and to prevent the promotion of the activities and any commercial inter mediation. the rooms have victory for these and people campaign is somebody to the case to quote the. 2 drug remove most of because the central president for over the, in the world and his friends, the major companies and the, i'm afraid none of the executives that we spoke to wanted to discuss the fine, i'm be defense, organize this declines it to speak to have them come are about the issue father squared squares and said that they would appeal to court decision. 74 is randy

companies will shed you to take part in the fed. some say the french government's decision is discriminatory. they say they weapons over central to insure israel safety activists say that being used against palestinian civilians. this actually, butler ultra 0 paris, had on the 012, by a season, has begun in california with more than a 1000 firefighters to point to one fire. in the south of the stage, the pod came in to be is israel and obstacles piece? i think that the new thing you have one is government with this is 5 digit, you say getting russell, a thought provoking nonsense that you made weapons being used in guns. no guns should be used in an offensive way. that's our facing realities. you're running.

mean, what does he bring to the table, hard from the presidential, could we do it or something we can uptake the effective use of the present as not an important factor via the story on talk to how does era the colleges when the from palestine to pakistan from syria to indonesia. ok, foundation is delivered to bonnie to over 3300000 people. this year we will be delivering to bonnie to over $23.00 countries across the globe. supporting communities in areas affected bible families, poverty and diesel stuff. your coupon a is a lifeline for someone in a donate. now with confidence, give your to bonnie, today without kind of foundation the,

the, the hello, this is a reminder of our top story is this sound. russian president vladimir putin is heading to north korea for to day trip. the 2 countries planned to strength and ties as they tried to sidestep wisdom sanction. young young has been providing russia with women, sports invasion of ukraine. police have been using war to canon and various to block thousands of protesters gathering near is rarely prime minister benjamin netanyahu, whose home calling for only elections and to cease by doing the wall and food program says it's a trunks or incidents at dot for region, for only the 3rd time in 2 months, the wsp says they carrying food to support 160000 people. the conflict between

sedans on the end of the power military rapids support forces. as coal is one of the worlds was hunger crises. the u. n says a 3rd, a sedans population, that's 18000000 people. all starving fighting continues in the city of all fashion . the rapids afford forces are reported to be advancing on the city. it's the student is on these last major stronghold inductor for the recess has been trying to control the city. the un says that fee is ethnic cleansing if they are assessed captions officer or the former us envoy is the john donald booth. earlier spoke to my colleague, somebody's a done about those fees as i think of what will happen really depends upon the general imagine and how much control he has over the forces that are actually on the ground there. i think if a rapid support forces or are as if have any intentions that are trying to have it

governing rolling through them, they're going to have to show that if they take l flasher, it is not going to be an ethnic blood bass. the tribal divisions, there are, are immense and decision these have to learn, to frankly find a way to govern themselves in a way that can and it can address their diversity. so this is really, i think if the are a self does take out flasher, this will be a true test as to whether this is they have any, any possibility of ever having a claim to any goal and governance. and so then i have not seen any indication that there's any desire for international engagement intervention. and as you know of vision these government at that time lived the by general behind insisted that unit made the un mission and our for terminate back in in 2020. i think if the you and had been able to stay on the ground,

this could have mitigated some of the the atrocities that are we've, we've had reported the, the critical thing to understand is that the r as f as a creation of a bus year, redeem and this with an armed forces, they use the ginger weed, which is now, and the r s f has evolved from that. they use them to put down rebellion into our for. and now those very forces that they used in the past of to do their bidding are now challenging them in their heartland in khartoum and, and then just you to state. and then i'll valley the 11 migraines have died and $65.00, a missing of the 2 ship rags off the coast of southern easily a german charge. he says it found a sinking wooden bows. while its rescue ship was in the area, the survivors were handed to the italian coast guard and taken a sure 2nd boat set off from to cuba, but was overturned of the catching fire. european union countries have paused
