in the lab, now, more than ever, the world needs w h. making a healthy a world for you. everyone. ah, this is al jazeera, ah, hello madison. this is the news are live from dill, coming up in the next 60 minutes. if you're in military says at a train, the forces have withdrawn, some figured i rebel fighters reject the government sees far north korean leader blames officials for failings and tackling the covered $900.00 times and says, the consequences have been grave fighting for their rights prevails. indigenous

groups wait to hear on why the land reserve for them will be opened up for commercial use. and record heat wave in canada kills dozens of people with temperatures, which is 50 degrees celsius. and he just came into the schools including a landmark victory for england euros the rest of the quarter finals off to beating germany for the 1st time. and then knock out game since the $966.00 world cup i if you open government says at a trade in forces have now withdrawn from take right there being supporting the ethiopian military fighting rebels in the northern region for months. it also acknowledged many soldiers and civilians have been killed during the recent fighting to figure out people's liberation front says it's now and complete control

of regional capital metalli. that's stuff that happened a day after e. c o. p. s government declared a ceasefire which the p. p. ls described as a joke while the routes of the conflict between the national army and rebels in ticket i go back decades, particularly people's liberation force or t p l. f. dominated ethiopian politics for nearly 30 years. until prime minister aviana to power in 2018 abi albert and military operation against the group and to guy in november after he said it attacked federal army bases to grow our position parties and say more than 50000 people have been killed. or the un says more than 350000 face the risk of famine. since november the t t l f has joined forces with other groups to form the 2 great defense force. after months of regrouping and recruiting new fighters, we began a major counter attack towards the regional capital mechanic. in recent weeks, katherine saw joining us live now she's following this development from nairobi.

katherine, there's been a flurry of information coming out from the european government. first of all, what they've been saying. yes, i've just seen a statement from prime minister the med who was basically re to re thing the audio government position, giving reasons why the, if you appeal defense forces all withdrawing from some parts of the guy. saying that this is a strategic decision that the soldiers are we doing to prepare for more national external threat. i did not say what this is, what we checks. these are the external forces off. but in that statement, all the prime minister, he did say that right now that the grand defense forces are not a priority or not me just read and that will be contained with empty gray. and he said that the military can get, he can take macalester within 3 weeks if need be. but he also criticized the

international community international partners saying that there has been way too much condemnation on his government. no recognition of the humanitarian assistance that government has provided to the people of the guy. he says that the national forces have been under so much pressure from with them and from the international community, from international partners. and this makes him question the motive all of this earlier, we also spoke to the p. p a left the t great people liberation front us folks month get time to read us say, who said that the to grand forces are right now. reorganizing themselves you grouping to continue with the offensive and peel every inch of t great is liberated. he said. he says that however the t p a left is ready and happy to sit down and he talks with the government. but with on such conditions,

he says that all invading forces he calls them, must leave t drive fast. he says, so there has to be accountability of atrocities that have been committed against the people of guy. and he also said that basic services, like electricity, telecommunications, the internet, must be restored, that has been cut off. so it's going to be interesting going forward to see what's going to happen to, for example, to the sci fi that was declared by the government. that the grand forces say they do not recognize it, it had, you'd have to be consultative and the government gave a ceasefire, but has been doing the opposite of what these plans are supposed to be. so i, like i said, going to be very interesting to see going forward. how the government is now going to react, especially with a grin. grand force is saying that they are regrouping to continue with the offensive, how the retreat and government is going to respond because you're being told that

the every trans how withdrawing as well. so how is their return government going to respond because the retreat seems to be also very much under threat and how the other forces are like the government a mars. 5 fight is. 7 who control a big section of western degree, how those forces are going to respond because already they're saying that they will fight to the very last to keep hold of western degree. catherine, thanks very much. indeed. that's catherine. sorry. bringing us up to date from nairobi with other people from t great having feeding thing across the border into sudan and hippa, morgan has more from godaddy. well, many of the refugees that we've been speaking to since monday express happen is by the fact that the group people of liberation move forth. and the t d f were able to take over the capitol medically. and those who we spoke to yesterday said they were very happy that other towns have been captured as well. but the biggest concern right now is humanitarian access. the united states says more than 702900000 people

are in dire need of parent aid without which they could die because of our vision or destitution. and there more than 5000000 people who are in need of humanitarian aid in the region of pe gray. right now if you look at the situation on the ground, while the life may control major towns, they still don't control the major ways into an out of gray. so the ability for them to be able to make sure that aid is deliver to those in need is not 100 percent. this is a big concern for international donors, as well as 8 organization who've been repeatedly saying that they hope that the fire that was announced by the cuban government would be of the way for those who are in need of hearing aid for survival. to be able to get them. well my brian is a strategic advisor for so hungry search for he focuses on the horn of africa and he's joining us by skype from nairobi. thank you very much. indeed for being with us. i want to ask you about these various statements. we're hearing out to v o b a, including the prime minister's statement. what is your assessment of this one gets the impression that the advance made by the t p forces seems to caught people by

surprise. all they have indeed, i think the 2 great enforces reasons offensive was studying military move and has, has taken everybody by surprise and clearly has pushed the the open government, eritrea and government to start withdrawing their forces. so rather than a ceasefire, i think i'd characterize what's happening now as a, as a withdrawal. and i'm not sure how much that's going to change the situation because in addition to the fighting that's been going on in today, what we've actually seen for, for much of the past months, as this concept developed was an embargo, basically cutting off to grade from the rest of the world and we've seen the humanitarian consequences have been catastrophic. now, by withdrawing the forces,

the government hasn't necessarily lifted this defacto embargo. and as your correspondence said, we're going to have to wait and see whether now aid workers can return communications resume and humanitarian systems is allowed into 2 great region. if that assistance isn't allowed and what of the possible consequences of that? well, it sounds, if they're not allowed in as, as we've heard to grade populations estimated a 6000000 of which 5000000 are said to be in dire need of assistance. there are already reports of starvation in remote rural areas of today, where the yoga and forces have been accused of destroying livelihoods, ruining crops, killing livestock, and even destroying the seeds that would have been used to plan new crops this year . so i think we would expect kens possibly hundreds of thousands of people to,

to die. it's for that reason the, what we're now seeing is be to grand defense forces rapidly moving to the northwest of to drive. they took the towns of shit and shit, otto in the last 24 hours or so. and they're likely to make, i think it's offensive, tried to carry it on as far as the sudanese border. so that if the government, if you're, when government doesn't allow assistance in humanitarian card or might be established, be a sudan editor in forces have obviously played a big role in ethiopia as efforts to try to contain the t p lesson and push them back. the claim is that editor enforces not even the country. ethiopia, as we were talking about earlier seems have been caught on the whole by this. the t p seems to be pushing forward. how do you think this is going to play out or the coming weeks? well there,

i think there are 2 main considerations here. one is that even if the trans withdraw the boundary between a joke in our trail was a long contested. and it was if he appears failure to withdraw forces from territory. wanted to, to go to tray that was sort of torn in the side of the trains now at the trans withdraw from to grey. but they did try to remain in those territories that had previously been under ethiopian control, the ticket and likely to engage the militarily and retake that land back for to the other consideration is that president for worky is considered by the t d, f. and the tpr last to be their prime adversary, i think even more of a threat than the government. so i would not be surprised if we see to gray, the t t f. now start to push the trends onto the defensive or try to at least and

work towards fermenting descent and instability in eritrea with a view to ousting science afterward. we appreciate you giving us the benefit of your expertise in the brian. thank you very much and he did your time. thank you. north korea's leader has replaced several top officials after what he called a grave lapse in corona virus prevention. qindzhong accused them of incompetent saying the unspecified incident had caused a major crisis. north korea closed its borders in january last year to defend itself against covered 19 and hasn't reported any cases. robert bryan has moved from the south korean capital sol. a he singled out a number of senior officials saying that they had neglected their duty in fighting the pandemic. i, but we don't know whether this means there has been some kind of outbreak or

whether it refers to other measures, such as in the supply of food or economic measures that were meant to be implemented in fighting the pandemic that he was referring to. but certainly, it seems to be failings are enough to get you to lose your job. several senior officials, we know have been fired according to the north korean central news agency. and it comes, of course, is north korea claims. famously, it hasn't had a single case of kobe 19. it has virtually sealed itself off from the outside world since the beginning of the pandemic. that in turn has had huge economic consequences. we know that combined with storms debit devastated the harvest last year. the country is facing food shortages in the coming months, and of course it remains extremely vulnerable to the a corona virus. we, that has not been as far as we know, any kind of vaccination rollout. it has a rickety health care system that would be hard pushed to deal with any kind of

outbreak. so as far as south korean officials can detect and surmise, looking at what's happening in north korea without knowing exactly what this incident is, it does seem to be that can juggle facing all of the myriad problems and crises really trying to stamp internal discipline and asserted authority, as he deals with these critical times, has been another record number of infections reported in indonesia nearly 22000. in the past day, the sharp rise has forced oxygen prices to double in the capital, or some hospitals are overflowing. the red cross is warning of a covered 1900 catastrophe, and calling for an urgent injuries and testing and vaccinations. president joker were dodo expect to finalize emergency restrictions later on wednesday. jessica washington has more from jakarta, hospitals, reach capacity. many families have been left with no choice, but to take matters into their own. this is an oxygen door in south dakota,

and some relatives have come here because they say they loved one. despite being critically ill, were unable to receive hospital here in the entities and capital. and it is a story that is sadly the reality for many families here in indonesia, that hospital is all at 100 percent. or in some cases, edging close to 100 percent capacity and have no room, they have to turn away critically ill patients. many a lot to isolate that home. and it's up to the family who have to take matters into their own hands and try to keep their loved ones alive. whatever the cost, the cost of oxygen at this store has gone off. almost double used to be before the pandemic around $60.00 for one filling up. now it's $130.00, which is a huge for many of the entities and government says it anticipated that there would be a spike in 19 cases in june and july because of age celebrations. around 4 to 6000000

people traveled back to their hometown full festivities. and as a result of that increase mobility, there was an increase in transmission of this virus health care workers say however, that more must be done that even if despite was anticipated, the government must do more now. they are calling for further restrictions on social mobility. just stop this rise in 19 cases. that tells us health research agency says india's kovacs and job effectively neutralizes the alpha and delta streams of covered 19 the findings from the national institute of health, or based on 2 studies of blood serum from people who had received the vaccine. the institutes worked with india on enhancing the vaccines effectiveness around 25000000 people have received the job. say more ahead on the news, including why hundreds of thousands of farmers in bangladesh or blaming climate

change for their ruined weiss crops. have a report and the impacts, the conflict and northern most and business having on children and their families. milwaukee luther star fire as well as the game. peter is going to be here with action from the n b a playoffs. ah dozens upon a syrian female journalist in the occupied westbank say they've been assaulted by local security forces while covering protests. some have had their phones confiscated and say they're afraid to do their jobs. it. abraham has more from ramallah. we've heard that emotional testimony from these journalists saying that they are intimidated. they were beats enough. they were prevented from doing

their job in the past few days. why was they were covering us your, the iraq did after the death of the house, sydney and authority critic nissan who died just shortly after he was detained by the palestinian security forces. and there is a feeling among those female journalist that they were being targeted for being female. remember, this is a conservative society and issues like these are very sensitive. they fear that because of the intimidation they were subjected to industry that their families would, might push them to not do their job not be out in the field, fearing for their security. we've seen bruises. we've seen some journalists in car explaining their wounds, but some of these ruins might not be very visible. this is the trauma. this is the emotional distress that they were under. we've seen some of them crying, fearing for their future. some of them have had their phones confiscated and these

phones are still nowhere to be found. and the fear that they could be blackmailed by what's in these phones. how does it a staff member ali, i will, shallow has been detained by sidney's forces for covering anti government protests and the capital cartoon. police are fired tear gas at the demonstrators are demanding the over. so the transitional, government, opposition groups say the government has failed to achieve the goals of the city these revolution and must be dissolved. brazil supreme court is due to rule in a case that could determine future claims by indigenous peoples to their ancestral lands. leaders from 40 indigenous groups or count out in front of the court house in the capital facility to pressure. the government in the southern states of piano is trying to claim territory belonging to the shock. lang, people, if it succeeds, could affect the outcome of hundreds of cases. well, monica, you have joining us now from a brazilian. why is this supreme court decision so important?

well, this supreme court is important because it will be binding the landowners. what they claim is that there should be a time limit for indians to reclaim their territories. they say if you weren't fitting on that land, in 1988, which is the year that the new constitution was approved after the military dictatorship was over. it, if the person wasn't there at that moment, then they should not have a right to claim that territory. many of these indigenous people had been expelled before by force, so they may not have been sitting exactly on that spot in 1988, but there is proof that they were there. so if, if the court ruled in favor of the state of something up id and instead of in favor of the indigenous people, this set the precedent. and it could lead to having to review many of the cases that are, have already been decided in favor of the indigenous people,

as well as not allowing future claims to move forward. and as you can see, because me, these are the people, the shavanne t people, they are part of this, this group there around. there are hundreds of them here and they are going to protest and they're going to march today towards the supreme court from this camp where we're standing at right now. they're going to be marching to the supreme court to await the ruling. monica, i these, the only process that are happening are, there are other protest across the country. no corn sided with many other things just are going to happen today. today, not that impeachment request will be presented to the, to the house of representatives by many organizations there already are over 120 impeachment requests against president jade bill. so now to the difference is that

this one has many people signing it. many organizations, not necessarily political parties like the order of lawyers from brazil, and they're going to take this very, there's going to be another protest as well in front of congress which will coincide with the indigenous prop protests which will coincide with a new a moment in the parliamentary inquiry, which is investigating the government's best handling of the pandemic. and so far the government has been accused of delaying the vaccine roll out of denying the serious the gravity of the outbreak. but now there is, there whistleblowers are, are telling congressmen that they have proofs of corruption as well in the, in buying vaccines. so the government has just suspended, buying vaccines from india because of such because the whistle boat blower came

forward and said that there were government officials asking for bribes. want to go . thank you very much indeed, monica, you know, i can bring this up to date from celia please in western canada, my reporting an increase in sudden, deaths after a record breaking heat wave and parts of north america. dozens of people have died in the vancouver area alone since friday. most of them were elderly temperatures sought to nearly 50 degrees celsius. an old time record fenton mall hung reports. even in summer, canada isn't used to this kind of heat. people are doing whatever they can to stay cool. some flop the beaches. others are stalking up and bottled water in british columbia, less than 40 percent of homes, of air conditioning, and demand for new units has skyrocketed. many in the region have never experienced anything like it. we do get heat from time to time. every summer. summer's have

been getting hotter, but you know, it's never this body. we've never experienced anything in the forty's and vancouver . dozens of people have died suddenly in the past few days, deaths that are being blamed on the heat wave of the schools, universities, and vaccination centers across the region are closed. the scorching temperatures are being linked to a so called heat dough, where high pressure zones trap the heat we're seeing happening with the atmosphere is very unusual pattern where there's been intense, high pressure cut off from the global circulation pattern. high pressure lead to sinking air and thinking air warms up. we have this feature that's been cut off from the the circulation for a few days. that's the recipe for these dangerously high temperatures. regional leaders are going connection between the unprecedented temperatures and the threat of climate change. in this instance, i think the that the big lesson coming out of the past number of days is that the climate crisis is not fiction. that is absolutely real. and if you look, i pad

a briefing from the wildfire service yesterday and again today the entire west coast of north america from baja to alaska is red, hot and awaiting what could be another catastrophic fire season. just ahead of us as lightning starts to come into the equations authorities in canada and the u. s. are urging people to stay indoors, drink water, and check in on vulnerable friends and relative. the heat is expected to continue throughout the week, and more records could be broken in the coming days. bins and martin al jazeera will staffing as a climate change expert to the streaming national university. and he says, the magnitude of the temperature increase has caught everyone by surprise. normally, this time of year of temperatures would be in the mid to upper twenties in places like than cooper. and a really hot day might be 35. but these temperatures are in the mid fourties and

pushing 50 degrees. so the extraordinary increase in tension, which i think is quite everyone by surprise. there have been high pressure domes in the past. these do occur reasonably often, but the rate and size of the temperature increases just extraordinary. we're also talking about fire risk and we're talking about wild animals as well as the medicaid. it was not the course nate, they also suffer from the heat. they certainly suffer when large areas of forest burn well and certainly sounds like they're on the verge of another really disastrous fire season up and down the west coast of north america. but this time, normally those are centered in california and maybe southern oregon this time due to the extreme, me all the way up into british columbia means that there are many more for said or boulder will define this year than there have been in the past. and i find for the weather here is everton with more on that heat wave. hello, i'm pleased to say we've got some cool weather now coming in to wet northwestern

parts of the us into a western areas of canada. we've seen that deadly he way we have got wet weather into central and eastern parts of canada, easing over towards central areas of the us as well. but think about those temperatures just falling back into the the high twenty's, therefore the pacific northwest. so that's much more comfortable will gradually see that he just going to squeeze a little further, reese, which is we go on through the next hour so. so central parts of canada, central parts of the us will see plenty of very hot sunshine over the next hour. super slightly cool weather coming in across the western side of canada, down towards the pacific northwest. so wet weather, some heavy foundry down, pulls that just around the place around the appalachians, all the way down towards southern path of the us and will continue to sink its way for the south with a nice was an on that line, a very heavy way. we could well see some flash flooding for a time. notice cross that western sort of candidate, a chance of a sundry breakdown as that he just starts to a bait slightly over the next few days. plenty of wet weather continue around

western parts of mexico. meanwhile, since larry's of the caribbean, also seeing them live the showers right across into the east tonight and still ahead and i'll just 0. why anti monica protest? so walking the african kingdom of escorting china is communist party celebrates it's $100.00 birthday. we'll hear. i was new outlook and foreign policy seen at home and abroad. not in sports. we're going to tell you why sitting williams was forced to retire from her wimbleton the 1st round match. peter is going to have a detail later in a lee, you'll come onto the pitch. is a special moment for any football to do it as a palestinian woman is a remarkable achievement. footballing legend added canton introduces honey.
