i'll just 0 people in ethiopia, the pig ry region are starving to death. the warning from the un humanitarian chief martin griffith recently visited the area and says, hundreds of thousands of people are in urgent need of food aid fighting between regional forces and government troops again last november, alexia bryan reports. this boy is a victim of what the u. n says is the world's worst hunger crisis. he may not look at, but a don, my ways is 14 years old. his uncle said that after spending months hiding from violence and ethiopia to dr. region, he weighs less than 15 kilograms. and he's not alone. the un estimate hundreds of thousands of people suffering famine conditions and to grind and millions more at risk. to fighting left many hospitals and clinics closed or destroyed the combination of lack of medical care. most of the health institutions that are

inoperable and lack of food will mean that people will start to die. fighting broke out into grey in november between ethiopian military and the regional force. the to gripe people's liberation front were looking at almost a year of fighting that had a tremendous impact on the economy and of the culture and the ability of people to produce food. so now which we see, but many people, they only have one mule per day. the quality of their meals have also deteriorated . some people and now eating roots and flowers to survive. the un says a de facto government blockade of the region is preventing food, medical supplies, and fuel from gaping in something. the government's denied, if you know is, is a stain on our conscience. because the, the facts show that accessed to gray, where we have been wanting to have

a 100 trucks every day arrive, integrate to meet the needs of the over 5000000 people there. we've never reached that. we've never had that. and it's been about 10 percent of that. over the last 2 or 3 months, the un humanitarian chief says ethiopia leaders appearing into the abyss, and he's calling on all sides to stop the fighting for this man, made famine gets worse. alexia bryan, al jazeera president ship taber tuan, says peace in syria depends on relations between turkey and russia. he talks with present vladimir 14 in sochi, which coincide with an increase in ass strikes on turkish bank opposition fighters in it live last year. the 2 countries sponsored a sci fi deal to start fighting in the region. russia is serious. mean i lie while turkey support fighters who are trying to remove president bush, alice from power to go. and then you go shaken, so sometimes difficult, but with

a positive and final result. our department of learn span compromise is beneficial for both sites. and i especially believe that there is a very big benefit and turkey and russia keeping stronger relations each passing day. the steps we have taken with russia relating to syria is of utmost importance . rachel ad hall is the deputy director of the europe, russia, and eurasia program at the center for strategic and international studies. she explained this to nick and self. this meeting. the u. s. turkish relationship is that in a difficult place right now and principal wanted certainly disappointed with the degree of us. ringback support to turkish physicians in syria. and as a result has tried to hedge a bit and move closer to russia. so i see this meeting, and so she has a very public facing meeting to demonstrate that russia and turkey can still be partners in various places throughout the world. but at the end of the day,

i think this is more of a continuation of a marriage of convenience between russian turkey in which there cooperating to advance their short term interest. so those would include things like economic in energy cooperation, managing the situation. and you're particularly along the border and pressuring nato and drawing the attention of the united states. but i think it's important to remember that there's a great deal of divergence between turkey and russian with regard to their long term goal. here we can find examples in the balkans, the caucasus, and of course syria is curious to me that in this meeting they talked a lot about compromise, which sounds more of a specific agreement about what each site will do and more of an agreement to stay out of each other's way. it live. i think it's significant that no new arm feels we're now. in fact, you know, this has become a russian narrative that almost pushes turkey in a corner, suggesting that there is more defense cooperation between the 2. and turkey is

actually try to downplay that the focus of this meeting and cooperation rather than syria. meanwhile, the us says it has no plans to normalize or upgrades diplomatic ties with syria and isn't encouraging others to do so. the comments came after jordan fully reopened its main water crossing with syria in an effort to improve economic activity in both countries. theory has been struggling with the impact of us sanctions and a decade long civil war. jordanian and lebanese officials have urged washington to ease its measures in order to facilitate trade in the water country. still ahead on al jazeera, why these lebanese families whose loved ones died in the bay was 40 scotia, accused politicians of obstructing justice. and we have the latest on britney's b as controversial conservatorship case. ah,

iraq. * and kuwait as well as guitar edging up, and we are likely to see the shamal come back over the weekend. and that's bring with it plenty of heat and dust, but it is looking wet across that central part of africa. it's a different story here within those tropical waves, pull out towards the west, those swelling weather systems, pulling away from the gambia and senegal, but hot on its heels. we've got another one that we're keeping our eye on that your update, the weather sponsored by castle airways voted world's best airline of 2021. when you from a neighborhood known as a hot bed of radicalism. ready you have to fight to defy stereotype meeting going to join the stories we don't often hear told by the people who lived in georgia

some of the boxes this year on al jazeera. ah, ah, the me welcome back. a recap of our top stories on how juicy are tenacious president has appointed a geologist with little political experience as the country's 1st senior prime minister is tasked national dance with forming a government. last week, i saw a denounce, he withdrew by the greek and ignore parts to the constitution. barking the debts from a battle between rival drug gangs. had a prison in ecuador has risen to at least $100.00. it took security forces 5 hours to regain control of their facility on tuesday. more than 50 inmates were injured.

and the u. n. is calling on the e t o p and gotten into an awful date into the t drive legion, imand carrion. she's martin griffin. has worn the areas facing the world's worst hunger crisis in a decade. now families of the victims of last year's bay would port explosion have held a ronnie in support of the judge investigating the incident. on monday tara tara had to suspend his prob rafter complaint by former interior minister is in a hard to report from the lebanese capital law family members of more than 200 people killed in the bay report. the explosion aren't angry and they're standing behind a judge under fire from lebanon's political establishment. thought it better is leading an investigation into one of the largest non nuclear explosions in world history. it's been more than a year, and there are no answers that i thought is doing that i job going under the past.

and that's what the price and the politicians are being accused of obstructing the prob, to avoid accountability authority, say the blast was caused by highly explosive material stored at a warehouse in the port illegal challenged by former interior minister and had much, no accusing baton being biased has led to the prob, being suspended the case presented by the present with no legal basis and in front of a court who has no jurisdiction on the so it's going to be dismissed. but meanwhile, meanwhile, it's a way to store covers it from 292272021 defeated. where john wouldn't have taken action against the parliament is now in recess a time when m p's lose their immunity from prosecution since july. but our has been trying to initiate the prosecution of those believed responsible for failing to act

once they were told of the potential dangers of the materials stored at the port. that's because one of the very rare judges who did do everything in his power to go after the space on the evidence that he had. they started with media campaigns against him. harassment reports at the tar is reported to have received a verbal threat from his the law that it would remove him by any means. the iranian back group has not commented. we have reached a new level in this country where the judges that cannot be bolt or drive. now are threatened, but not only threatened threat and publicly using the press investigation, if leading somewhere where they will. they don't want to go. but tara predecessor removed in february by a similar legal challenge brought by senior officials. he had accused of criminal negligence. so far, the investigation is focused on who was responsible for unsafely,

storing the highly explicit material support. but it's still not knowing what caused the fire that triggered the block. and there are unanswered questions surrounding the ownership of the ammonium nitrate. these families say they won't give up until they get justice, but they know they're up against the system that shields the power. then their elders, either in bangladesh, a prominent ro hang a leader has been shot dead in the cox's bizarre refugee camp. gunman opened fire on moore. he bore law who had been becoming out. hook up to this for a refugee crisis, nearly a 1000000 ethnic ro hang fled to bangladesh, to escape the military. crack down in your mind. 2017. we see you in face with ethnic cleansing. now, athletes who are vaccinated against corona virus, phase $21.00 days in quarantine for february's winter olympics in bay jane officials say vaccinated athletes will undergo daily testing and will only be

allowed to move between games related venues for training and competitions organizes say for in fact teachers won't be allowed to attend and they stop ticket sales to people living outside china. youtube says it will ban all untie vaccine content. any videos related to vaccines will be taken down if they claim the jobs are onto effective or dangerous. the move comes with countries try to convince people to get the corporate 19 shot. the video sharing giant has already banned posts that spread false smith's about corona virus treatments. early i spoke to mark douglas who's president and chief executive officer of the u. s. tech for a mountain, he says it may be hard to determine what smith, information they are affectively already is a band right now. if anyone puts out an at bax content, youtube, the monetize is if they are a popular podcast or, or any other content creator that makes money on the you to platform. so you tube

essentially exercise control over their content using a method. what they are announcing now is that control is, or that censorship is going to become more explicit for people who don't monetize on their platform. and i think their ability to do it from a technology perspective is, is very straightforward. there's no doubt they, they can, if they want to. if you put out content that you tube doesn't like, then they say we won't let you to make money locked that content. so it's a really strong incentive for people who are putting out the content. so now what they're doing is they're extending that small content creators, the bill, which is the more explicit mean, today's mis information or less, call it last week. smith information is often today's truth so that the whole idea misinformation is essentially in the eye of the beholder. and quite frankly, in the moment that the information is being posted because you know, information about cobra, about vaccines,

about any topic involves over time and is really rapidly above during the pandemic . so i think that's the big yes, actually, backlash again, youtube is. who's to say what you're blocking now is not the truth, literally 2 weeks from now. and that's happened over and over again during this pandemic. and so people aware of it for that reason. hey, los angeles judge has removes brittany spears father as her guardian, calling the arrangement toxic. the pop star has been fighting to end the 13 year can service the ship that controlled her personal and business life. the judge has appointed another guardian for her and will decided november weather to remove the confederate ship early this year, s p a. so the court, she'd been medicaid against her well and denied the right to have children. let's speak to one of brooks about this. she's the civil rights attorney and founding partner books law, and he's joining us from baltimore, maryland. one, a very good to have you with us on knowledge is there. so for the 1st time since 2008 brittany spears will be without her father's oversight. first of all,

just how big of a victory is, is for her and what does it mean for her future? thank you for having me on. and yeah, i mean, it's a huge, huge victory for her. today's ruling by the judge was in fact what brittany attorney was asking for. so unlike mister spears, who actually ended up petitioning the court, the support and the conservatorship altogether, brittany fears attorney on her behalf had requested that actually that he just be suspended from the service worship. and that is what the judge could a. right. so it's a he checked her, but in the meantime, i understand the court has named california accountant as the temporary conservator of her finances. what does that mean? is that also likely to go away? think part of all the court indicated that there would be another hearing about

$30.00 to $45.00 days from now to determine financial plan and then a care plan for ms years and for future. but i do think that it is possible that will see the conservatorship in this case, potentially go away altogether. want to just explain to our international audience what this is all about. i mean, this was an unusual and closely watch case. even outside of the us, everyone knows britney spears, of course, but explained to our global audience, what conservative ship is all about. and how, how widely use is it in the us? your small conservatory ships. they are, in fact, they are widely used and there are thousands of thousands of adults. the united states are under or under some sort of pre service worship arrangement. and what that means is that a court of law has determined after a hearing, sometimes multiple hearings that the individual in question may be suffering from

some sort of mental illness. and or i believe in this case the, there was also delegation of central substance abuse problems and combined with the mental shoes, the court ruled that she was not able to make decisions over her own faculty, her own, or she didn't have the correct agency if you were to make the decisions financially otherwise. right? certainly very, very publicized case because she so famous and her state is worth nearly 60000000 is what's been recently said, but there are hundreds of thousands of american adults under concerts worship, and miss b. just quite the 13 year concert worship that she's been dealing with and living under. it's really broad highlight if you will fight for like we're putting in human service, which is i was going to contact the implication today. yeah. the implications of the decision on brittany, britney? spears has on the system as a whole,

i know that politicians from both sides have been closely watching this case and they've been called for reforms to the system div. do you see that happening now with this decisions? i do. absolutely. i think we're really seeing a cultural shift and the shifting viewpoints altogether. about conservatory should certainly be serv. good purpose. they can, but also abuse can be ramping and i think with miss pierce is recent. all those center a few years. but with what's happened today, certainly we're seeing a shift all around congressional hearing with a public dialogue. and i think that the viewpoint will really start to turn even more so towards just idea of individuals and having free will free agency. but also balancing that out, or with those cases that, that we do needs, you know, some folks you need some guidance, but certainly the public opinion and legislative way there is a shift and the shift is more to empower the individual even when that individual

is under service 1st, thank you so much for talking to us about the thank you for your insight, wanda brooks, joining us there from maryland us senators are said to hold a hearing later thursday to discuss what they call the toxic effects of facebook and instagram. it comes just days after the social media giant put off plans to unveil a kid version of instagram. facebook is accused of trying to hide research about the danger the platform poses the young people. while reynolds has a story around a 1000000000 people use instagram every month, but the social media giant behind the photo sharing app says it will hold off on developing aversion aimed specifically at children. under 13, i still firmly believe that it's a good thing to build a version of instagram that designed to be safe for twins. but we want to take the time to talk to parents and researchers and safety experts and get to more consensus about how to move forward. the retreat comes after an expose

a by the wall street journal showing instagram's corporate parent. facebook conducted research showing exposure to instagram harmed teenagers, especially girls we need. another. researchers reportedly wrote that 32 percent of team girls said that when they felt bad about their bodies, instagram made them feel worse. they also found significant numbers of teens who reported suicidal feelings threaded instagram as a reason. instagram posts often show attractive people in glamorous settings, which may make users feel inferior by contrast, so that invariably, people come away from these online experiences. feeling that they will never measure up feeling that they can never be pretty enough 1st smart enough or charismatic enough, but 2019 presentation for company executives reportedly declared. we make body image issues worse for one in 3 team girls. the research was reportedly cited in

a presentation to facebook, c, e o, mark zuckerberg last year. we do know sen, ed markey, of massachusetts, who will be holding hearings on the matter on thursday. wrote that the least information was, quote, appalling and adding that facebook has completely forfeited the benefit of the doubt when it comes to protecting young people. and he called on the company to abandon plans to launch a version of instagram for kids under gene. instagram says it is developing a feature to actually suggest when young people should stop viewing its content in it. you could put your instagram on pause for a period of time if you're in a moment of vulnerability, maybe going to a break up. you just switched high schools. facebook claims the published internal documents were taken out of context. robert holds al jazeera to australia, queensland now where one of the oldest framed voice in the world has been officially handed back to its traditional owners. the
