actions in the future from better ruth is unclear as his protest which his fate. natasha butler, al jazeera, paris, a fresh political crisis appears to be unfolding in molly, the prime minister has reportedly resigned. after being detained by soldiers along with the president and the defense minister, following a cabinet, re shuffle has been international call for the immediate release of the politicians . witnesses say they've been taken to the army headquarters in county opposition. groups have criticized military figures for attaining key portfolios after school last year because saw because this update from senegal, capital dot com. we're hearing that the prime minister has resigned from this position even if that's the case in the government. that was just to now was hours ago that was supposed to impede the situation in molly, while that government will, there'll be a new government that will be announced. but clearly very volatile situation

involving this is all happening in the, in this call in this tussle of power between the military june and the civilians that were part of this transitional government or the 1000000 people themselves. now there's been an uptick in violence, especially during the month of ramadan. there was a taxed in, in, in signal just 250 kilometers away from the capital. we've seen the biggest trade union organizing strikes for the past week strikes because wages haven't been paid for civil servants. and out to that the economic fall out of the pandemic. so a very difficult situation for molly and, but right now we're, we're seeing in what many millions are wondering is, who is leading the country right now. there's been statements made by the un peacekeeping mission, remember, so there's 15000 un peacekeeping soldiers on the ground. in molly, add to that, the $45500.00 french soldiers that are applying pressures on the arm groups

so that the transitional government can do their jobs. well, they're saying tonight that whoever is holding the prime minister and the president, well, they'll be held accountable for their action. so let's bring in andrew a little bit. she's a policy fellow with the european council on foreign relations to join us last guys from washington d. c under. so how is this crisis in molly now being described? is it an outright cou, a group of disgruntled soldiers, or some kind of dramatic reshuffle? well, people aren't quite using the term q yet, though i think it, it could very readily apply to the situation. certainly where we see military officers were part of the 4 roll into a potentially forcing the resignation of the transitional prime minister. be interesting to come just shy of that because of course, using the language of qu, would engender a certain automatic repercussions such as the suspension of aiden and cooperation,

particularly security cooperation that exist. but i think that term most likely would apply. yeah, and some of the articles that you've written say that the military has been slow to relinquish power since last year's coo. how much of the risk did they pose in the transitional government? because they didn't and never really went away, did it? no, certainly not. and there was also late to be dissolved itself itself, even after that was one of the initial demands for the international community. and and for echo was. so the risk is really the new, the officers that composed the hunters senior leadership maintained a really firm hold on the key positions, particularly those related to security and defense. and so they were able, in many ways to not only shave the transitional government but to shape the ongoing security and political responses in molly, in a very crucial time. and in a time where the security situation is getting worse and, and the government and the international community are facing

a series of cascading challenges that the hunter is not necessarily a quit or in a position to, to deal with andrew. what about the people of molly themselves? are many of them welcome the departure of president k to last year, but promised reforms have been slow, haven't they? and many are worried about the military political dominance certainly, and we can speak certainly for all mullins, but at least what i've seen is that many people are frustrated with, with slow progress as you set on reforms. plots of the fact that the officers who, who stated the crew last year, who formed the winter, seemed to be more concerned with their own positions. and with politics in bobbo. molly's capital, rather than what many people see as their primary responsibility, which is dealing with insecurity and the threat faced by arm groups, including jihadists, are groups in the country. just a final thought to andrew,

i mean the united nations. that's cool for immediate release of molly's presidents . so what more than should we be expecting from the international community, which has been accused of not doing enough in the country where they were, would have to see what happens overnight, particularly if, if president is released that could cause the situation somewhat. but i think certainly the internet security is taking a fairly firm line so far and condemning these activities. but we're going to have to wait and see if they actually follow through with that and try to push for not just for the release, but to try to push the, keep the winter out of politics and to, to try to ensure a smooth transition without this ongoing interference, and it's good to get your thoughts. thank you very much. indeed for talking to algebra. thank. thank you. now you as president joe biden has spoken by phone to his egyptian counterpart to discuss strengthening the israel garza, c cya, and reconstruction efforts. the white house said it also wants to find ways to

they say the operation is called law and order. and they say thousands of police and border fighters last night, all over the country, arrested hundreds of people. now they say that this was in the wake of violent incidents of before than the state of israel in the past 2 weeks. and that's why they've launched the operation. now this comes off the back of 1500 palestinian israeli, that have all ready been arrested in the last 2 weeks. now they say that during the day today, they arrested $74.00 people and more arrest will come in the coming days. but this is worrying activists, they said that the rest are taking place in the home and nazareth and i'll go and go for yes, all over the country of israel. now here's the problem. the active is also very worried that it won't just be people who may have taken part taken part in public

but they were damaging floods and the rainfall could bring more of those floods there. and that rain band you can see it stretching up towards the great lakes, bringing with it some of those heavy showers. but it's a different story. as we had further east look at those temperatures, lots of warmed, coming through and we're going to have some records set in cities across those north eastern states. in particular, atlanta is a challenge to a record set more than a 100 years ago. and we could reach that by the time we get to thursday. there's also heath along the west coast, in particular, los angeles, and the 4 corners states. we've had fire warnings here, and those will continue as those temperatures continue to rise. but above that, we've got a bit of an unseasonable wintry mix across the rockies that springing wet and windy weather there as well as snow. and as we go later into the week that will move towards the plains of canada. now it's also a wet story for much of a central america, particularly heavy showers in southern areas affecting panama and costa rica with

secretary general, good harris as well. in those comments pointing to the sort of wide appointed purpose of this w h o assembly gathering of a 194 members. its annual assembly in this the, in this case, this year. the purposes reform, namely to pick up on 3 independent investigations that have collectively. so to pointed the finger at the w h. o, in its response to the pandemic saying it was too slow that it was inefficient. that member states didn't coordinate sufficiently with one another member statements. institutions themselves were woefully under pret, prepared and evidence for that is in the vaccine shortages around the world that w h o. 's own kovacs initiative aimed at getting doses to the developing world is very low on supply because the serum institute in india, its chief supplier, has stopped exporting vaccines so that it can deal with the situation in india specifically. and this talk over the next 9 days of the member states coming up

with the sort of bones of a global pandemic treaty for future pandemic, specifically to deal with these sorts of problems. but mister ted ross, having to deal with the situation as it is his call going out to member states to particularly the rich world who've hoarded vaccine doses, to hand them over as quickly as they can to kovacs. and for vaccines suppliers to commit up to 50 percent of their production in the coming year to kovacs and to the developing world. more than 300000 people in india have officially died from coven 19. but the actual numbers thought to be considerably higher. john, less doctors and crematorium staff, all say many deaths are being counted. and the northern state of punjab says vaccine make madonna, a decline this request for jobs. elizabeth her on him as a new delhi with more the official death toll only takes into consideration people who are dying in hospitals, and most indians don't die in hospitals and only around 22 percent of death. medically certified, the death have remained very high,

but the good news is that cases are coming down and they coming down despite the level of testing remaining the same, the deaths remain high because it takes around 2 weeks for the fish to follow cases . and it was around 2 weeks ago that india was recording its highest numbers of cases, you know, more than 400000. they have come down to the official total to around 220000. on sunday. the cases are coming down so much that danny's leader has said that they will begin to ease restrictions from this next week. but the situation does remain bad in some parts of the country, the southern states of thumb and not as the worst effected. and so they're going into a complete knock down on monday they do and many other states in the country have the government expanded the vaccination program to include everyone above the age of 18 from may. but because they weren't enough dos, as they told states to make their own agreements own arrangements with

manufacturers. both indian and foreign a number of states have been trying to do so. and the state of punjab, which is one of the worst effected has said that madonna has come back to them and said that they're only going to make deals with the central government. but it's a central government. it's asking states to make its own arrangements. so the number of vaccinations over the past month have fallen. roof military says at least 18 people including 2 children have been killed in an area known for co duction. the mass killings happened in a rural town and perused amazon region where the leftist arm group, the shining path operates the military sands. it found pamphlets in the town calling for a boycott to the june 6 presidential election. 70000 people have been killed in fighting with the group, mostly in the ninety's and a foreign, a sanchez as more now from lima. the police and the army have been deployed by president francisco philosophy to this gary remote area in the jungle of peru,

the rebel groups the fault, the government for 2 decades that left more than 60000 people did in peru. this is a very different shining path or remnants very little number of them that operate in this very remote jungle area. now, 5 states across the united states witness mash shootings over the weekend that these 12 people were killed. many of those were children, or young teenagers, experts say the spike in violence as policy related to a large increase in guns sales. last year, president joe biden has branded gun violence in the us and epidemic. robert supports now from los angeles. in new jersey, 2 people were killed in a dozen injured when shots were fired into a large crowd, attending a birthday party. somebody fired from the woods or came added woods and is very tragic. can devastate for a whole community. one person has been arrested in what police believe may have been a targeted shooting. this was a birthday party,

a birthday party is supposed to be a joyous event. not a target for those hell bent on inflicting harm on a community. new jersey governor connected that crime to the wave of gun violence nationwide. what we saw here in fairfield is a microcosm of the scale of gun violence. we see elsewhere in other communities in our state and across the country. in north charleston, south carolina, a 14 year old girl was killed and 13 people were wounded. when a gunfight broke out at what police say was an illegal concert, no suspects have been apprehended. i said, and we were angry too at each other, and i didn't q who, who got hit another gunfight caused 2 people. their lives in minneapolis. yeah, it was a very chaotic scene. officers dealt with a number of people who had been shot and we're laying on the ground in

having an increasingly difficult time. first time buyers like all these dell, s, u, a priced out of the market, not being able to do it. now, it is like when i will be able to do it. this is the question, because i don't know if the prices are going down and we still, we are, we still are in the middle of the pin they make. we're not in an environment where we have a whole lot of public land that can be donated to create affordable housing. it's a story, charles dabney knows all too well. the land trust he works for focuses on building affordable homes in communities like miami's little haiti with costs rising, vital projects installed. when you don't have housing, we don't have adequate jobs and income to support housing options. if you don't have the ability to sustain a community,

the idea behind subsidized public housing like this is to give families a chance to save and buy their own home. something increasingly out of reach. owning your own home is the foundation of the american dream. but even before the pandemic came along, there was a shortage of affordable housing here. now things was compounded by rising construction costs, stagnant wages, and the shortage of new bill homes, or factors that have big consequences for communities across the united states. the price of lumber hit an old time high this month, driven up by covered $900.00 supply issues. the impact on poorer communities is already being felt. so they've got 2 choices. you right? and then you start paying more and ram is the landlord increases the prices, and then that means you have less for everything else that you need to do in life. and eventually it hits a point where it's, it's attainable and you've got to relocate. affordable housing is

a backbone of the economy, creating safe communities, jobs, an opportunity with rising costs many and now facing stop choices with no solutions insight. galico al jazeera miami, florida. ah, so i thought could check it, but headlines here on just over the e. u has agreed to sanction bella ruth, including banning it's national airline from entering the blocks in space. it's in response to actions by bella luce, which saw a passenger plane diverted to minutes, an opposition activist on board detain the humans mission. and molly has called for the immediate release of politicians, detained by the military, after cabinet re shuffled. the prime minister has reportedly resigned after being taken to an army base north west of the capital by marco, along with the president and the defense minister. nicholas hark has my.
