era of so, but it was the iraqis, it take to the whole, in a long over you, general election math products and political unrest around the country lead through an earlier than 9 days, a new election laws being put in place. and the government now deliver on a promise to pay it an open process, especially coverage on a disease. ah, at least 20 people are killed and hundreds injured after enough. great. his southern pakistan, ah, 11 o'clock, this is out 0 life and also come this long awaited my later vaccine. these at breakthrough for signs, child health, and malaria controlled be development being dumped the game changer against

a disease that kills hundreds of thousands of people every year. we believe it york is high, lengthy international law in doing so. in iraq move the un secretary general demands evidence from ethiopia, spelled 7 officials, choosing them, misconduct, join the police on petroleum, one of our agencies, busiest ports, they cracked on the drug gun trade. ah, so that a powerful earthquake is killed at least 20 people in southwest pakistan. dozens have been injured off to the 5.7 quake struck in the early hours when people were sleeping. but houses have been reduced to rubble. the worst area is reported to be, this is if hon. i, in baluchistan province rescue efforts are underway, but it may take hours to reach the hardest hit areas. while high to has this update from lam about this is anadia, which has mostly marked and scorned construction,

re poor construction quality at dad killed many of the people were trapped on dead, a roof at least 20 came a military helicopter. and then what rush through that area to evacuate, the more seriously injured and also to move change than other equipment. this is i've gotten more region and the fact that the earthquake were there, shallow one caused considerable damage. it also cut off the key access road. so people like to work in order to force respond. i do have to work with dodge lights to dig through the rubber. however, we are told that military rescue teams are now dead. the national debt, the provincial disaster management. auto did not dare and did of course, probing to see what had happened on the ground and how many structure jeff collapse wake was fred as far away and the provincial capital went about

a 168 kilometers away from road and audio. and after schultz, of course continued, but so far, the debt goal is not significantly high. however, we shall find out as the rescue efforts under recovery effort. i've got to get underway. liana percy is a g, a physicist with the u. s. geological survey and she says yes, quake had a greater impact because it was very shallow. this earthquake, it may not seem very large, but it was shallow. this, the shaking was very strong in the of the center area. and i is very close. only about 15 kilometers away from the abbey center. and so if you add that to the construction of the homes and structures in the area that will unfortunately cause large damage. the fact that it happened at night when people are sleeping, that even exaggerates the damage and the injuries that would happen in the area. because it's in the mountainous region. the region will be brown, do landslides,

blocking the roads and hindering aid coming into the area. in the past 3 years, geology grocery has recorded about 21, many to 6 and larger earthquakes within approximately 250 kilometers of the at the center. so the region knows large earthquakes, they happen from time to time. the most noble events that happen where magnitude 7 point one in 997 and then you magnitude 7 in 19311935. there were very damage in people try predictors, briggs figure out, ways how we can anticipate we're still hadn't unfortunately so many of these large events they happen at inter was that we haven't seen a repetition of them yet. and so that makes the prediction very difficult on another know there are folds that have been unmapped which adds to the problem of

how do you predict something if you don't have exact data of where the faults lie or on foreign minister is in beirut. so talks on lebanon's spiraling economic crisis a month after the formation of a new government them. on wednesday, the lebanese army prevented angry crowds from storming of bank. after being unable to withdraw cash flows fuel, let us using basic necessities, a running critically low. let's go live to zenato, who's funded by for some barrett and senator, he runs for a minister in discussions right now, but he's, he's or, and he said, the aim is to help lebanon break the siege imposed on the country. what did he mean by that? well, it's diplomatic language, or the iranian foreign minister saying that they're ready to help lebanon break what iran and its allies, lebanon, consider the siege on this country. but in reality, what he is doing is asserting iran's presence asserting iran's control over this

country because he is building on what happened just a few weeks ago. it's a ally, has bala managed to import sanctioned iranian fuel through us sanction syria in the country. now has been saying that the aim was to alleviate the fuel shortages in the country. but there is no doubt that this was a diplomatic and propaganda victory for has bala and the iranian camp in a lebanon. so basically this is that this is the message that he, he is trying to give about. the government was not involved in the importance of a fuel. in fact, the newly up, the new prime minister even said, i'm sad that this happened and that lebanon's sovereignty was a was violated. but he couldn't do or didn't do anything to stop that from happening. so, diplomatic language, we're here to support lebanon in the midst of this economic turmoil. but in reality, the message is clear to many in lebanon, and said,

how come iran help in all of this? and how is their role or whatever they do? how is it viewed? well, it's a very divisive role as of late. it's allison, lebanon, control, political power has been its allies. they have the majority in parliament, they control the government. they are the only group that is armed really since the end of the civil war in 1990. and it's critics, and the opposition believe that it has been using its arms really to impose its will on the lebanese people, impose iran's agenda, use lebanon really as a negotiating card. and so there were some protests against his visit. so some people are even saying that this country is occupied by iran, but it's interesting timing. there's a new government to and as of late, the french and envoy from france was here. the european union is in talks with the lebanese government and deliveries government this and talks with the international monetary fund of for

a bailout package to resolve the deep economic crisis. so iran is, is kind of worried because at the end of the day, a deal with the i m f at the state loses some sovereignty, hezbollah loses some control. so they're all vying for influence in this country. lebanon is the battle ground, and lebanon, really is the battle ground between the u. s. and, and iran is through their 3rd local allies in the country are done. and thanks for that, that's a bit from barry to zenato. the world health organization is backing the roll out of the 1st have a vaccine against malaria. it is a big step in the battle against of ours, which is one of the leading killers of children. it's recommended. the job should be given to millions of children across africa to work and because it's being described as a game changer for child health, a vaccine that could help save the lives of hundreds of thousands of children each year in sub saharan africa. monica has been with us, poor, millennial, and the dream of my letter. boxing has been a long held but unattainable dream. to day,

well as pregnant women. the r t s. s vaccine, also known as muscular ricks has been welcomed by researches as an historic breakthrough. but many on the continent worry about funding and whether a mass roll out will be possible in the wake of coven, 19, and other competing priorities. we, roman i are being a diseased boss, specially i by and large and dizzy as far as sub saharan african children. ah, and given the digital geez, that our countries are facing, which will that be international? clear g, r e is going to, i stand up and, and make dyslexia available to with children needed. the world health organization recommends giving the vaccine to babies in 3 phases, followed by a piece to shout. but that may take time. the next step is to the global vaccine alliance known as gabby, to look at whether the vaccine is a worthwhile investment. if it's approved, gabby will buy it,

a site is shootings have become an everyday occurrence as gangs battle each other to control the drug trade here, some of them and in all market annoy or we just received a call that a woman heard 30 shot. so we came here as fast as we could. we're evaluating what's going on, checking on possible suspects with. we accompanied the police doing several raids across the city. they were looking for drugs, cache, and guns. one of our gen tina's most important ports is located here, or 30 say, it's a get away for drugs. and the violins here is all about control of the local trade . i go to their mcleana or the one i don't remember, we're seeing cocaine. marijuana drug trade has increased to missouri area and we are trying to go to different areas like slums, where suspects are hiding. we are seeing lots of young people who are behind the attacks. they begin around 16 years old. many of them are responsible for several

killings. big gangs are using teenagers and children o residence in the slums of those ideal i struggling with poverty and difficulties that have been exacerbated by their pandemic. their scarcity of food and jobs, families, especially children, are intimidated by the strong police presence. the gang leader of a group known as la manas was recently put on trial for using children to sell drugs and for threatening judicial authorities. he was sentenced to over 80 years in prison. but his power and influence go beyond the prison walls. the police says that one of the persons being held here has close links with one of the gang leaders that is currently in prisons, operations like this one happening almost every night as the security forces here in ross audio are trying to tackle violence last week. the government of alberta

a series of unusual movements while anchored near a pipeline in california. it later ruptured more than half a 1000000 liters of oil of spilled into the ocean off the coast and saturday, as believe the ship's anchor may have hit the underwater pipe. i plan company amplify energy corp, are under scrutiny for taking several hours to report the leach of federal authorities as well as also led to growing demands for complete ban on all expiration of the coast of southern california, reynolds has mornow from huntington beach. every wave that breaks on the shore here brings with it more oil to be cleaned up. and while the exact cause of this spill has not yet been determined, suspicion is increasingly revolving around the possibility that an ocean going vessel dragged its anchor across the pipeline, distorting it, and causing a what eventually turned out to be a 33 centimeter hole in the pipeline of the pipeline has been shut down. there's no more oil leaking out, but half

a 1000000 the leaders and more of oil already has spilled. a huge, clean up operation is underway. this all is part of a global story, the global supply chain disruption. there are dozens and dozens of ships waiting off shore here trying to get into the port of los angeles in long beach. they can't because the port is at capacity. and why? because during the coven era, during the locked downs, people in the united states ordered so many goods that were made in factories in east asia, that the, the, the port is simply overwhelmed. there's too many ships, they can handle it. and one of those ships may have been in the wrong place. now, this is also creating some political backlash, corals at the grassroots level to ban offshore oil drilling a. here is what the governor of california gavin newsome had to say about that. fossil fuel jobs literally are out numbered 5 to one versus clean energy jobs in
