while japan battles the colona virus fan demick, and other signing of a warming planet, the draft of a major climate report is leaks. st. millions will be at risk. ah. maybe as foreign ministers as foreign mercenaries could be out of our country within days, national mongers and representatives of libya, transitional unity, government meeting, world leaders in berlin. united nations says about 20000 foreign mercenaries or in the country. the exit is part of a plan to reduce violence in libya ahead of national elections in december. practical mechanisms, not just ideas on paper, but practical and concrete ways of unifying. the libyan army. reintegrating delicious, withdrawing mercenaries and foreign forces from libya,

securing the border. unifying the libyan central bank to name a few. the people of my country pin so much hope in the 2nd conference of the berlin process. my people are looking forward to seeing more concrete measures which have a positive impact and the ground. it's time for actions because my people have heard enough. well, let's come on this from out of ready, his life for us now in berlin, the u. s. is involved in these talks, is the us presence, having any difference to the way things are going well, routed, definitely raise the profile of this conference and raised the expectations that president biden will focus more tension on libya. more attention that is in its predecessor form president donald trump and speaking earlier after the conference alongside german chancellor anglo merkel. us secretary say anthony blink and petty hope that libby plots

a course for security and independence. 3 that we have a responsibility, particularly in this moment to demonstrate that democracies can deliver, deliver in the lives of our people, deliver for people around the world. and there again, the example that the chancellor set, the germany is that could not be stronger. and today is a very good example of that with the work that germany has done on libya. and the hope of this moment to actually see libya, hopefully take a course of security, freedom, independence, backed by the international community. i'm all the statements that we've been hearing out of the balance conference do seem very positive. but is there any sense that that positivity and not confidence is actually being reflected in the meeting rooms where the talks are being held well,

so far know from what we're hearing and seeing coming out of the conference, we have a lot of broad sweeping statements that they must get rid of foreign fighters and mercenaries that they must hold elections by december 24th. and that, that all these disparate militias in libya must disarm and be mobilized. and there must be one military that reports to civilian authorities. reading through some of the statements have been coming out though we're not hearing as many concrete proposals as the libyan foreign minister. her health herself just said, as we heard that she wants to hear. and that her people want to hear. now of course, it's very rare to get extremely concrete proposals out of such a conference. so people be watching the coming days to see when the rubber hits the road. what exactly comes out of this? but the u. s. president clearly showing a big commitment by sending secretary state lincoln here in blinking statements, wrapped in this idea of the power of democracy to build another stable democracy are very potent messages. but whether or not all of these countries more than

a dozen of them working with the you in here in berlin on wednesday, we'll actually put them to action is just not clear yet. it's adam rainy reporting from berlin on those talks which are happening there. adam, thank you. dozens of people have reportedly been killed after an air strike had a busy market in ethiopia, northern to gray region health workers in the village of to have told the associated press. soldiers blocked medical teams from reaching the scene. in fact happened during some of the most intense fighting since the conflict began in november, if not own, who carried out the attack. triple morgan has more from godaddy in sudan, near the border was if you hear the thanks to look at that as strike on civilians in the town of northwest the grand capital mickely. and then there's offensive that has been launched by the green people's liberation front. the life which is the government has been fighting since november. both events are likely to result in

more people being displaced. the un has already said that more than 2000000 people are internally trapped inside a great, i'm more than 5000000 are in need of military and a for survival. 70000 people have crossed into sudan gelati, and let's say they're spread across refugee camp here. but people who are integrate are in dire need of many, perry and assistance, and you may have relief supplies and the situation is still getting worse. it's worth noting that this comes just days after the parliamentary elections were held and which degree did not take part. and because of the ongoing conflict, so if anything people are expecting that the situation integrate will get worse. and that the parents, the tuition that will be dire, they're expecting more displacement and refugees here say that they're concerned about their relative. we're still trapped in other parts of become of the region because the border areas have been blocked and they won't be able to access the roads to be able to make it through refugee camps. therefore, they will have to suffer from the impact of the conflict was employed as

a visiting senior fellow in the department of war studies at kings collars, london, he says, evidence suggests the therapy and air force is responsible for the attacks there. frankly, nobody else who could have done it. the air try and air forces not operating in the area. the to grants have no air force. who else could have done it? it must have been an ethiopian jet. i don't think that will come as any surprise to anyone. basically, the 2 grand have been on the defensive ever since. the war began in november. they were 1st driven after weston gray, then they were driven off of the capital mckellar. and now they have begun to take back some of the areas that they lost. they are fighting gays. both ethiopian and era trained forces are trained for you may recall have been coming in from the north. the ethiopians asked them to leave, but they have so far not done. so and

a string of tongues have now been briefly re taken by the grands in a very major offensive. they say they have captured up 210000 e. c o p, and troops. now of course, they're not verified, but that's the kind of claim that they are making that they are now on the offensive. they've got the, they say, the peons on the run in some areas. but this is not a rule that's going to be over in 5 minutes. the last war in this area last 17 years. this one's been going on. right monks. the southern african development community has approve the deployment of troops to mozambique to help the government with the ongoing violence their talks are being held in the capital crucial in april on group storm. the town of palmer in the north killing dozens of people in displacing thousands more. 100 more tasa has more f. as in bob we in capital had already what we know so far what we think i must say that these troops will do it.

they will be fat most and be me for example, they will hope patrol the indian ocean coastline and they will patrol the border area with hands with some of these is said to be coming from there also patrol from the border areas at that neighbor mozambique as well, not in theory, every country in the side of reasoning from an african me to contribute to the stand by force, but it can not make lee. many countries are having a hard time. it cannot be because of the covered 19th and then get other talent because they also have, for example, most cutting that he's not trying to raise money to procure vaccines to come back on a virus with a big come to live. so that's what's the biggest economy in the region, and they also going through the economy problems. they've had to cut by just the defense budget as well as and by way, which is the way to be good army. i'm the factions that could limited as well in what it could do to help intervene and, and help them be. so all these things are a play. what's important to note is that this wouldn't be the 1st time that she

from the reason from different countries that come into another country, for example, in the late 1990 bob way and goal and the maybe our soldiers to the need for the government in the early ninety's and bobby, for example, deploy too much, i be centralized, be to deal with an anomaly at times it has been done before. the question now is who, which country is will form part of the stand by force? when would they come in and what exactly would they do to this must be sedan, has asked us security council to intervene in a dispute about the c o. p as hydro electric diamond, a blue non sedan and egypt worry, it could impact water levels. sedans, foreign minister wants the security council to urge if you appear not to fill the dam. this july is planned. if you have the dam is crucial for lifting millions of poverty people that madagascar are on the verge of starvation after the worst drought in 40 years, the runs food agency says there's

a desperate need for aid with manju tricia more than doubling in the past 4 months next year, bryan reports this days at wasteland and southern madagascar was once airable and fertile. but years of drought mean only a few patches of green remain. the lack of water has destroyed crops and sandstorms cover whatever's left and a layer of dust. the food here has nearly run out. many families are forced to eat and sick the leaves to survive. it took me that in the morning. i prepare the plate of insects. i clean them up as best i can give them. there's almost no water. my children, i have been eating his plans every day for 8 months because we have nothing else to eat and no rain to allow us to harvest at what we have sewn. 8 groups a warning of catastrophe, especially for children like these 2 now orphans after the mother died of hunger, the arms of wasting away. while they stomachs a blow said by malnutrition,

and they had allowed if i look it up, i rely on god. today we have absolutely nothing to eat except cactus leaves that we are trying to clean up. we have nothing left. their mother is dead and my husband is dead. what do you want me to say? our life is all about looking for capital lees again and again to survive. madagascar southern region is the center of the crisis. more than a 1000000 people, about half of the areas population need food aid, and the karone of ours pandemic has made everything worse, flowing the delivery of much needed supplies. many of these women and children have walked for hours to get help, were facing the worst drought in over 40 years. and this is an area where people depend on their own agriculture, home grown school, meals, small holder farmers. this is how they lived down here, but with drought back to back to back. people can't survive. and so the government partner with the world food program, others were doing the best we can. but it's

a terrible situation who reigns during this years planting season suggest yet another harvest will fail. the us food agency says the world must act now or a generation could be lost to famine. alixia o'brien al jazeera still had an alters in the united states, sees is $33.00 media websites linked to our on to han condemns. it has a breach of bidding speech and a new code 19 threats. the new variant has been detected in 3 indian states. ah, ah, it's time for the journey to winter sponsored by kettle airways. hello. here's a deal for the southwest monsoon. we're going to get a bit of a breather in particular for the west coast of india on thursday. but let me take

it to the north east where we still have some rounds of rain in particular for the pradesh, as we head toward be har. westbank all into a dish. and you know, when you see the darker colors here, that's the more intense rain that we'll, we'll see. so toward nepal and also coastal sections of the ad mart. we're still once again, buckets of rain can be expected or plumb drains toward the south, falling along the pearl river valley look what they've done to hong kong, $89.00 millimeters of rain over the past 24 hours. and that rain is steering toward taiwan. i look at this tropical depression in the pacific were tracking it out. so here we are on thursday, i'm going to move your head towards sunday. so watch what happens as it moves up the pacific. plenty of rain for a q to chicago rate through into honshu. so yes, so soccer and tokyo some what days for you on sunday. se, asia, we'll get into some dry spells for indo china and, you know, we, i think the better bet to see some rain and thunder storms is across java jakarta.

we've got you in for 31. and for the philippines toward the north and the south. so devil, 32 degrees and we've got rain in the forecast for you on thursday. the sponsor cut on airways. most people will never know what's beyond these doors, the deafening silence of 100000 how it feels to touch danger. every day. most people will never know what it's like to work with. every breath is precious, with fear is not an option. but when most people ah, ah,

the me watching i'll just get a reminder of our top stories. this are libby as automatic. as of all the mercenaries can be out of the country within days, representatives of libya's government and the world leaders, and to try to establish security ahead of national elections. in december. dozens of people have reported been killed off on an air strike a market in ethiopia. to grain beach and house workers in the village to go, i have told the associated press that soldiers blocked medical jews from reaching the southern african nations have agreed to deploy forces to mozambique at a meeting in my put up the most unpleasant capital in april on hoops installed the town of palmer in the north, killing dozens of people. and displacing times of iran says it stopped and attempted the act of sabotage against the building of its atomic energy organisation. it comes out to the u. s. c's,

33 media websites with links to iran on tuesday to hong condemns the move, calling it breach of freedom of speech. the us previously sanctioned lines, revolutionary god and state media outlets, making it illegal for them to do business with americans. or how much mastery is an associate professor of media and cultural studies at the institute for graduate studies. and he says the u. s. is trying to send a message to around the new president either him or i see. well yeah, i mean, the short answer is the, i think it, i think it can backfire. but the united states has a history of sort of paying lip service to these, these democratic notions of, you know, freedom and freedom of speech and freedom of the press. and really kind of acting in ways that contradict their own, their own ideals. you know, obviously that didn't go stations or ongoing the u. s. wants to expand the

terms of the nuclear agreement. meanwhile, the president, the lex and iran, is opposed to those, you know, to expanding the, the terms of the agreement. and in fact, has reportedly said that he wants sanctions relief. so i'm looking at this as kind of a message that this is a, this is a message that the us government is trying to send to, to the new iranian regime or the incoming regime. but i do think it can backfire. it's, you know, i heard one analyst call this, you know, like in this, to a game of whack a mole, you shut down these websites, but then are, you know, the right backup and reportedly, several of the websites are already backup, so it beg you the question you know, what is the point? hong kong is pull democracy newspaper apple daily has confirmed. it will shut down operations by saturday after its assets were frozen. and i've spent follows the rest of its chief column. this is a life pictures from hong kong and the publication of the last edition of the apple

daily, which is to out on thursday the writer known by his pen named be paying as the 6 staff member detained this month under basing national security law. the 1st person in hong kong to be charged under the asians national security law is on trial. tony king is accused of terrorism and inciting session, driving his motorcycle into a group of police officers flying a protest. flag last july has been denied a jewelry for his trial with the government, citing concerns, but the safety of judah is 9 separatists. politicians and activists are promising to keep pushing for a catalan republic after their release from prison in spain. it is having sentences of between 9 and 30 years after catalonia has failed to session bid in 2017. sonya diego reports, this is the day they had waited for the leaders of catalonia secessionist movement, leaving prison surrounded by supporters and all that home in to continue the

campaign for catalan independence vullez to develop wrangler political. we want to transfer to the field of politics, all aspirations commitments an ideal because there is no ideal and commitment, more nobles, and that of the freedom of a country, the independence of our country than the republican values. then the commitment to social justice and the freedom of all people with their freedom comes conditions. all mine have been borrowed from public office and their pardons rest on not committing what the spanish government would consider serious crimes. they had each set more than 3 years behind bars for their roles in the 2017, a legal independence referendum, figured out the worst political crisis in spain. in decades. the crisis that may have recently ab, but is by no means most spaniards outside of catalonia, against the pardon. but there were very few options available to help resolve the

current situation. space prime minister federal sanchez has banked on the move ending the political pass game. he says is to kick start talks in to secure a reconciliation between the central government and capital and nationalist. but it has drawn fury from his political opponents, jacqueline governor, and the lovely people government. i cannot solve it up. you have placed yourself on the wrong side of history, which will not absolve you if you have any dignity left you should resign today and submit this decision to the judgment as the spanish p. sanchez will meet the cattle and lead a pet otto on tuesday. an opportunity which he hopes could lead to better relations with a pro independence movement, but he runs the risk of gambling away. his minority government. so the diagonal i'll just of an additional $420000000.00 people will be exposed to extreme heat waves of temperatures rise by just 2 degrees celsius. that's the finding of

a un draft report and climate change. it's also predicting up to 18000000 people to be at risk of hunger by 2050. if emissions are not reduced, the draft report says the effects of climate change, including the extinction of species is getting worse. jennifer francis is a senior scientist at the woodrow climate research center in the u. s. she says we're already seeing the detrimental effects of climate change in all aspects of life. places that are both warm and humid will be where we're going to see the most impacts on human life. because when you combine that humidity with high temperatures, it means that your, your body cannot get rid of the heat that it generates as part of its normal operation. and if that combination of heat and, and moisture gets too high, that's when we see a lot of people succumbing to these heat ways. but we've already seen heat waves

this summer in the northern hemisphere in the western part of north america and parts of europe in the middle east. and but you know, it can, it can extend pretty far north as well up into even siberia, where last summer we saw the temperature is exceeding 100 degrees fahrenheit. for the 1st time, we pretty much spans all realms of light for talking about agriculture. making it more difficult to grow crops that we normally would grow in certain areas. and especially if you combine that with either drought or too much rain. and we can see both of those extremes happening. it also affects our fisheries, as we, as most of the heat that is trapped by greenhouse gases and carbon dioxide, in particular, goes into our ocean's. we're already seeing the impacts of the warming oceans on destroying our coral. reefs shifting species of fish farther towards the poles and also melting the ice up in alaska, the arctic,

and even antarctic us. so it's hard to under, under, under state. how important this is this extra warming, not just for people, but for all life on the planet. in how folks are good experts agree vaccines remain the best way to fight covered 19 but estimate suggest only 22 percent of the world as received at least one shot developing countries where people are often crowded together. i said to be lagging behind and a new variant could mean more outbreaks. san posada reports on wednesday, parts of australia reinstated restrictions to capture the threat of a new outbreak. clearly b, c's and evolving situation. we would have preferred not occurred, but given what is occurred, the new southwell government will be taking action today to limit the strait of what is a very contagious variance of coated. neighboring new zealand also sounded the

alarm raising its alert level and temporarily closing its border. the new delta variance of the nobel corona virus 1st detected in india is more infectious, and health experts say a serious threat to eradicating the disease. to make matters worse, more than 20 cases of an even more infectious strain dub delta plus have been found in 3 indian states. health officials say the new mutation is a serious concern. on tuesday, german chancellor, anglo merkel criticized european countries after arise and infections in tourism dependent portugal where half of new cases or the delta various public. but all i regret that we haven't been able to agree on common travel restrictions among the member states, and this now has its consequences. we now have a situation in portugal in this situation could maybe have been avoided from that and that is why we have to work harder. we did quite well in the past few months,

but we are not yet where i wish the european union would be for china plants to keep pen demik border restrictions in place for at least another year. even suspending some domestic flights for fear of a new outbreak. and on wednesday, russia announced its highest single day death toll in months. blaming the new variant for a surge in case of indonesia to has detected the delta variant. in the capital jakarta, an empty swamp is the sight of a new cemetery. specifically for corona virus victims. one woman's sister got sick while she was pregnant. i me, sir. she was elsie. the pregnancy was normal and suddenly she's gone. when the mother died 1st, then they checked the baby. after a few minutes, the baby died on the baby didn't side. they didn't take it out,

it died inside as much of the world struggles with lockdown fatigue. many countries are struggling with new outbreaks. and still bearing their day then basra vo jazeera in one month, the world's attention will shift to tokyo for the delayed 2020 summer olympic games protest us abuse the occasion together outside the japanese olympic headquarters. calling on the government to cancel the games. and a poll last month, more than 80 percent of participants said they didn't want the lympics to go ahead . found health care system is struggling with a panoramic when people are worried about a new surge in the capital. and i think organizers have imposed a ban on alcohol as part of tough new rules for spectators. they said the usual festive mood of the event will have to be suppressed to make sure it's safe and secure. only funds from japan will be allowed to attend. and organizers and says, all the necessary precautions will be in place as robert bryan reports

with one month to go before the game starts. this with the rehearsal for the opening ceremony with bus loads of stuff playing the part of l. m p. and, but the organizes are still unable to predict a sure how this lympics will play out before the closing ceremony. also being put on show for the media, the athletes village, which will be home to $11000.00 participants. it was originally planned for many of them to eat together in vast dining halls, but instead, competitors will be asked to eat alone with extensive precautions in place, the organizes are insisting these games will be safe. after these are the i stayed in the athletes villages for total of 11 times 7 times as an athlete and 4 times as a team leader. but we started out this village is by far the best and they'll be restrictions on when and where spectators conceras sing, and their numbers will be kept at 50 percent,

which may be further restricted. by the time the games get underway, what small spectators from overseas or band dealing a big blow to businesses like no motive to knock a sports bar in downtown tokyo, already struggling with business down 2 thirds during the pandemic. when we then, when we were hoping the gaines would give us a boost, but i'm torn because having more customers can cause a covert cluster. equally torn it seems, is public opinion in japan about going ahead with these games. you don't lucky people are asked to make sacrifices and put up with the restrictions, but the government wants to hold the games with spectators and i don't understand them came we've waited a year and we should just go ahead with a stadium full of spectators and there's not enough information about people coming from outside japan and if they've been vaccinated, i'm concerned the virus will spread further than i. as official imp posters are

unveiled, there are still so many and answered questions. but finally, the biggest one is now seemingly resolved. the games will go on mcbride, al jazeera. ah, this is all. these are the top stories. libby, as foreign minister says, thousands of foreign mercenaries could be out of a country within days. representatives of libya as government meeting world leaders in berlin to foster security ahead of national elections in december. tactical mechanisms, not just ideas on paper, but practical and concrete ways of unifying the libyan army. re integrating militias withdrawing mercenaries and foreign forces from libya, securing the border unifying the libyan central bank to name a few. the people of my country.
