new unity government including leaders from ethnic groups they are looking for recognition a little bit more to support in the dialogue that everyone is hoping will eventually come everyone in the region everyone fighting against the giant inside myanmar and that is hopefully through the un hopefully through some regional bodies where there will be some type of dialogue to try to find a political solution so what this unity government is trying to do in their effort now as they've officially named officers in this in this unity government and that officials in this unity government and that is they want a seat at that table they want to participate if the jones ascends representative if there are other representatives from other nations it's a tall order that this will actually be recognized as a government of myanmar any time soon but what it does do is it pushes forward this organization this this government in exile if you will even though some of the

members are still in myanmar it pushes that forward so they can have a seat at that table so they can speak with a more unified voice those who oppose the jones and who working against the inside myanmar talk to says the union minister of international cooperation and spokesperson for the national unity government have been mum he says at home and abroad this concerted effort to push the tone to from power 750 people of myanmar have been killed but these are less military in the us. these valentin's against the people of myanmar describe criminals activities military operation against the people of myanmar has to end now so we form these national unity government that is inclusive of all ethnic nationalities our president acting president will be catchy our prime minister is for koreans and the

national security law at the moment the police are standing back they haven't moved in yet but i would imagine if the supporters carry on chanting their way they are the police may well be forced to take action but the real story today has i think been what happened to jimmy lie he has been jailed for 12 months but then he received an additional 2 months for taking part in a protest in july the main protest the focus of today's sentencing happened of course in august and we've also learned today that jimmy lie is going to face additional charges under the new national security law remember he's already in jail having been arrested under that legislation now he's going to be trod once more so he faces 3 charges under the new national security law which means of course that he's if convicted going to spend very likely the rest of his life in

jail the head of russia's foreign intelligence services the new u.s. sanctions against the kremlin are poorly considered and will erode international stability washington's imposed a broad range of penalties in response to what it called. moscow's election meddling and cyber attacks the kremlin denies the accusations it says a response is inevitable but hasn't yet specified what or when u.s. president joe biden though says that dialogue is still possible but smith has more from moscow. russia's president appears to be in no hurry to announce what measures he will take account of the sanctions imposed by the u.s. on russia and the expulsion of 10 russian diplomats from washington d.c. kremlin spokesman dimitri peskov says any concrete steps will depend on a decision. he also says that the sanctions imposed on russia won't. affect russia's domestic economy but he welcomes comments from president biden the

responded to a fed ex facility at around 11 o'clock local time in indianapolis on thursday night after they got reports of shots fired witnesses said they heard a popping like a car backfiring and then after they heard it repeatedly one man said he looked to see what looked to him like an automatic weapon in the hands of a gunman outside of that facility police said when they arrived they found victims with wounds consistent with gunshots and then they went inside to find more and by that time at some point after the police between when the police arrived and and shortly after that the gunman had allegedly taken his own life we don't have a motive for that but the police say it was not precipitated by any incident or argument and there has been widespread reaction to this mayor joe hog said of indianapolis says. this incident senselessly claimed lives fed ex says it is deeply

shocked and saddened and gov eric holcomb who will be attending a news conference where we hope to get a little more information within the next hour says it's another heartbreaking day and that is an understatement because these incidents are happening with mind numbing reputedly there have been 5 mass shootings in the past 5 weeks and despite the fact that the pandemic has been keeping people indoors for much of the past year 2020 was the deadliest in handgun incidents in the united states in 20 years president joe biden has called this a national embarrassment and he has been trying to push for gun control legislation but that's exceptionally hard to do in a country where major changes require 2 thirds of both houses of congress to agree because the 2nd amendment of the constitution allows the individual right to bear arms the u.s. has banned assault weapons and others in the past but currently there is little

will in congress to make changes so right now we're waiting for a news conference where we hope to hear more about what happened in that incident but just to give you i'd an idea of the chaos of that scene family members were at what they call a family reunification center waiting to hear about their relatives they didn't get calls because most fed ex employees are not allowed to carry their phones on their jobs so they might have left it in the car or elsewhere so people are still finding out what happened to their relatives we hope to find out more in the next hour when we get this news conference john hendren reporting live from minneapolis but he thinks. elsewhere in the u.s. a place of facing anger over the fatal shooting of a 13 year old boy it happened at chicago last month but video of the incident has only just been released the distressing pictures appear to show adam toledo raising his hands as directed before being shot by a teacher castro reports. the video you're about to see is incredibly disturbing
