landscape in search of justice ah, an epic saga of through seeking under refusal to be gagged. radio silence, a witness documentary on al jazeera. we understand the differences and similarities of cultures across the world. so no matter where you call home, we'll give you the news and current affairs that matter to you. i the latest escalation and opposed facts, a trade dispute. francis's as a british trawler for illegal fishing. ah. hello there. i'm associate a, this is out there at life in durham, also coming up international pressure builds on students crew leaders as cause grow for the release of politicians, including that opposed prime minister tension and pakistan after

a band group threatens to march to the capitol and police officers are killed in a day of violence. plus i'm charlotte bellis in the maternity ward with dusty but she state hospital in cobble. we dock to say the suspension of foreign aid is putting these woman's lives. ah. now the u. k says, threats by france to block british boats from its ports are a breach of international law. and the latest escalation in a dispute linked to a post breaks at fishing agreement. the comments come after francis seized a british boat fishing and its waters without a license in paris is also threatening sanctions. if the u. k. doesn't got more licenses to french fishermen in u. k. waters. the british government has any sanctions would be met with the appropriate retaliation. it is very disappointing to see the comments that came

from france yesterday. we believe these are disappointing and disproportionate and not what we'd expect from a close ally and partner the measures being threatened. do not appear to be compatible with the trade in co operation agreement or wider international law. and if carried through will be met with an appropriate and calibrated response. why don't you feel it's time for us to get respect? i stand by the facts. we issued threats and pursued dialogue until now, since allowed our fishermen to have a bit of a half of the fishing licenses, we have to also see the glass half full, but that's not enough and not acceptable at all. so now we need to speak the language of strength. since that seems to be the only thing the british government understands that speak to andrew simmons is a processor for us from london. and you're reading, it's like it's getting increasingly hostile, just how serious are be effects when well, small beginnings comparatively,

to the potential for a full scale or fish war if you will on this because there is an intent on the part of the french a to really show to britain, it means business over the issue of fishing licenses. now this applies to the 6 to 12 miles own on the shore lines of britain, and they're particularly annoyed with only 15 out of 47 applications for fishing licenses, getting through. now a british say that isn't the case, there's much more generosity on the part of britain, but know the french are intent on going through with, if there's no response from the british to placate them. a series of measures against britain banning a fishing vessels from the french coastline to offloading shall fish. now, whether that will have much effect is unclear because only around 5 percent of exports are actually landed. that way, the main area is

a freight above the french are saying they will put customs checks, extra customs checks right across the board. not just on seafood, but also all goods coming into the port. so that is a big escalation. and you heard that george eustace environment minister of the u. k, saying that as far as he's concerned, that there will be appropriate and calibrated response. as of this, if these sanctions, as a whole list of them are applied on november, the 2nd that's next tuesday. so at the time is ticking away on this crisis and right now it looks if it's escalating, entering, given all the breaks or discussions, this is obviously been a long time coming. can you remind us how he got here? well this is always been a major contention on breaks it the fishing rights of the u. k. it's a, an island. it is a very reliance on the that the culture of fishing and it doesn't necessarily register in a big way in terms of the economy. but so the, it's

a proud island nation and they pushed this hard. now, traditionally going way back years and years there have been dispute between the french and the british. but now the british are imposing what they regard the as their, their own independent rules that have been agreed. but no, the french say there are not agreeing to it. and this is it, as i say in danger of getting much more out of control. not only is there the issue with this, sir. 15 out of 47 applications getting through. there has been an even bigger extent in the the, the island of jersey, which is a dependent dependency on britain. the jersey is a, is a country that, that is a place that the french are threatening with power restrictions, electric power restrictions, in fact, the whole of the u. k. possibly. and that is one of other aspects to what the french could throw at britain. so right now there is really no sign of calm. is

this rhetoric or is this real action on the cards right now, there is a fishing trawler. you can trula under arrest. it's, it's of the bigger under, as there is a, it's been detained in law of and there. busy is no sign that it's going to be released also a verbal warning given to another fishing vessel, both a, both of those vessels, the owners say they were perfectly entitled to had permits whether they were actually showing the permits of the matter. but they were legally entitled to do what they were doing. so this is as i say, a small aspect right now, but it could get a lot bigger. he had play that anderson and there with all the latest from london. thank you. hunting on our meeting on and su dawn's general ad with albert han has now dismissed at least 6 ambassadors after they spoke out against monday's military coup is increasing opposition both at home and abroad to the military's takeover of power. on wednesday, envoys from several western countries visited,

ousted prime minister humbug at his residence, where he's under tight security in the u. s. and the us have both courts, the immediate release of civilian needed. him, morgan has one out from the student. he's capital. people are still calling for a civil disobedience and generals trying to stay away from work, both at state and federal level, but they've been political moves to try to mediate between the 2 side. that is to say between the civilian component of the, the post transition government and the military that took over on monday. now we've, we've heard statements from the you as well as from norway that they went to the residence of prime minister of the land and met with him and made sure that he was in good health. the, the united nation commission into the unit pam secretary and the special representative of the us, the cottage. and what does the statement think that the 2 sides should return to the constitutional declaration? that's the power sharing agreement that was signed between the forces of them and change who election and the military on august 2019. so there are efforts to try to

bring back the 2 sides, the military and the, and the force of freedom and change coalition. to return to that constitutional declaration, let's not forget that. when general han made the announcement on monday, he said that he was committed to that, that to that power sharing agreement with the exception of a few articles. but those are crucial articles, articles that states the formation of the sovereignty council, which is shared between the military and the civilians. the executive cabinet, which was headed by prime minister album ham dog and the rules and the authorities of those councils as well as counseling as well as bringing back, bringing back the transition military council. the all of the, there are political efforts and diplomatic efforts to try to bring those 2 sides back again to the negotiating table. but the after the united nations also called for the release of the other political prisoners, including the members of the sovereignty council and executive cabinet who arrested on monday. now pakistan's government, his threatening to crack down on

a band group after 4 police officers were killed at a rally near the whole 2 protesters who also reportedly killed dozens more injured when gunfire broke out on wednesday, members of the to week in a big party have been blocking a busy highway since last week. they're demanding the release of their leader and also the expulsion of the french ambassador for the 2017 charlie. i bdo cartoon. can pharmacy come on? hider has the latest now from his. i'm a bad go far. they are continuing to press on, they've moved out of the city of law, overcoming all the barricade that was set up by the police forces and had been making progress towards islamabad. they are still a few hours away, but along the way, elaborate plans have been made. changes have been dug up and a key bridge on the river jail em. i'd been declared, i'd been closed. and i did the red line. the daughter did have been doors that deeds protest, i should not be allowed to cross that bridge at any cost. now,

while this is all happening, the government has said that it will be ready to release the need that sod rigley. it will be also in a position to lift all the cases, but as far as the expulsion of the french ambassador, or to bring that issue in ball limited out of the question. and already 30000 police force that have been called in from the adjoining, proven phase to make sure that it's some abad is kept safe right now we're in the red zone. as you can see, the security for did present it also the prime minister called a meeting of his cabinet yesterday and decided to do deal red days were denied. and they said that judge groups cannot be allowed to take matters into their own hands . order dictate policies as his mother, demonstrations and farmers entree lanka protesting against lack of fertilizer as the cultivation season. that gets under way. the shortage follows

a government decision to ban all agro chemicals. it's fond of a government compound on what it calls non essential imports during a foreign currency crisis. president got to buy a raj, a box then ounce that move back in may saying he wanted to make forming a 100 percent janick. then i'll fernandez has more now from the town of hump total . the angry slogans being chanted by hundreds of angry farmers, basically demanding what they say is vital to their next planting season. the mar season here in shall anchor. they said that chemical fertilizers, which they're not getting is something that they've been used to for 50 or 60 years . the soil is used to it. the crop lines are used to it, and they cannot get a proper harvest unless and until they are given these chemical fertilizers and agro chemicals. now, as you can see, there are hundreds of farmers taking part in this protest today. it's, and part of

a series of protests the chill anchor has seen right across the country in all the district over the last few weeks. the main thing is that the government has imposed an input band on chemical fertilizer, an agro chemicals. and this, the pharmacy is really destroying their potential livelihoods, like boss of the protests around the country. and here today in hm, bumper to most of these marchers end up outside the administrative centers of these areas here to their calling on the government administrators who are in charge of water distribution in terms of distributing whatever organic organic fertilizer that is available to ensure that they're fairly distributed and things like that. the anger is palpable among the people here who i essentially are really feeling the pinch. they say, whatever products that are available in the market have. now i started being sold at black market prices. they're really desperate because things that they've been

used to for such a long time. they cannot get on with the government has accused these protest of being instigated by politicians. but what the pharmacy is, the anger is real, and it is because of the situation they've been reduced to. well, stella had here on al jazeera or in the col, pacey mountains where illegal logging is destroying the forest at some, consider the lungs of urine. and an olive branch, hope francis agrees to visit canada following the scandal involving former schools run by the catholic church. ah, ah, look forward to burly to scully's, the with sponsored by counsel at ways. hello, welcome to another look at the international forecast places. we got some dry

ah ha. they are watching al jazeera that's remind you of our top stories, the sound you case as threats by franz to block british boats from its ports are a breach of international law. paris is threatening sanctions if the u. k. doesn't grant more licenses to french fishermen in british waters. so don's military leader has sacked at least 6 ambassadors as international pressure grows against mondays who the african union has suspended har to man. the well bank has also put aide on hold. pakistan's government is threatening to crack down on a band group after 4 police officers were killed at a rally, nearly all members of the tree killer bake party are demanding the release of their leader. now the lives of thousands of pregnant women in afghanistan are increasingly at risk. the world health organization says the country is health system is now on the brink of collapse. infant mortality rates had been dropping

for decades. but now an economic crisis is putting mothers and their babies at further risk. charlotte bellis reports from couple. we may seem coolest. 20 years old in this is her 1st baby. she's just 3 hours old. will be named by the family when she goes home. likely, later tonight in this maternity ward and western cobble, there are 4 new mothers, all younger than 25. to midwives and a doctor deliver an average of 15 babies here each day. last year they delivered 5 times there with 10 times more staff. thanks to support from the humanitarian organization, doctors without borders. oh, but i still attached the hospital in may 2020 bombing installing the compound 24 people were killed including 2 newborns soon after doctors without borders,

lived with its staff, medicine and funding. the afghan government never filled the void. these rooms used to be full with sometimes her women to were bed. but after doctors without borders left, they couldn't provide for the dozens of pregnant woman showing up here every day. now they refer them to other clinics. for the few women they can accommodate, they offer love advice and tabs of piracy to mo, they say, even that will run out next month. and the remaining staff have become volunteers. as the taliban struggles with cash flows. lusty minded of n telephone cal, yet no salary and no money. and just to be war kia are free. there are 37 public maternity clinics in afghanistan. many say they let funding and support long before the taliban came to power. i was in one came. we need

a 100 bed children's hospital and professional medical staff to significantly reduce maternal and new born deaths. 2 months into his new job as deputy health minister, doctor abdullah berry. omar says everything comes down to money. he is asking for the united states to unfreeze afghan funds, holden, banks, there, and for aid organizations to return your habit of other earth. i am calling upon the international aid organizations, natalie, the afghan people alone. they should fulfill their promises. the afghan people need their help. the taliban has a very open policy in this regard to law. we don't want the health sector to be political. oh, shortly after our interview, the room went dark. a power cut. the hospital is also plagued by them. does not enough money to fuel the generators? the barren hallways still welcome new life, but doctors wonder how much longer they can last model will mean if the lights go

out for good. charlotte bellis al jazeera cooper. now you as president joe biden is expected to announce a new framework for his social spending plan. the washington post says biden expect that to gain the support of all democrats at the sweeping policy package. initially came with a $3.00 trillion dollar price tag and biden struggled to get the more moderate democrats on board. he says he now thinks he can push through the revised deal for up to 1.9 trillion and the president wants the plan in place before he heads to the cup 26 summit on top, francis has agreed to visit canada and lies of the scandal involving former schools run by the catholic church more than $1000.00 graves. if indigenous children have been discovered near the sights of those so called residential schools and recent months, candidates government wants the pope to apologize, jody vance reports now from vancouver. it's not hard to see the generational trauma . indigenous communities suffer from catholic residential school abuses,

to broken families to children lost in the cracks of foster care. there is more than one place to lay blame, but it's the young people who suffer most. they have issues that they faced from their parents, like anger, alcohol abuse, drug abuse, because of all the horrible things that they went through in residential school. in this unresolved issues are passed on to the young people and they don't know how to face it, have a good day, both the canadian human rights tribunal, as well as federal courts, recently ruled that foster care survivors must be compensated. most will tell you that there is no price tag big enough. how could somebody ss, 40000 or 50000 or 800004 being raped and molested and condemned and made little and robbed from family for no good reason. even though prime minister justin

cheetos government has appealed court decisions on compensation. when pressed he to flex the millions of catholics like me across his country, expect the church to step up and fulfill its moral responsibilities. it's legal on economic responsibilities. it's historic responsibilities, but also to practice what it quite literally preaches. catholic bishops issued an apology last month. they are promising to fundraise with a goal of collecting $30000000.00 for victims over the next 5 years. but survivors say they simply don't trust the church. the catholic church is in crisis in the country. people have lost faith. many people have turned away, in some cases in the catholic church, as had to abandon communities due to the loss of congregations, because frankly, indigenous peoples and canadians have lost faith in the church to fulfill its promises. memorial like these are across canada, honoring the 215,

unmarked graves of children in kamloops. certainly, there is a role that has been played by the canadian government as well as the church in the generational trauma suffered by indigenous peoples of canada. children taken from their families, put into an under funded and often racist foster care system wherever holds the talking stick. now members of the community are trying to bridge that divide, getting into the culture, learning the language, learning the song, and the love of the community. will replace that anger, that's inside them even after a long road of struggle, there is hope and for some a feeling that it's never too late to heal. took a 199 years to learn what can be ruled by hatred in the enemy of our peace, a reclaiming of culture, and faith. they say, is the path to recovery. jody vance. al jazeera vancouver now indigenous

communities and labor unions protested in ecuador for a 2nd day on wednesday. they want the government to free is the price of fuel, which has now risen many times and recent months to re isabel has the story o. b block, the main highway outside kito. residents of san miguel liquor lit on se precedent. jetta, more lasso who has been in office for 4 months, lie to them during the election campaign about fixing but troubled economy and improving their lives. wow. they say his recent decision to raise fuel prices proves it. this woman does not want to show her face. she said nurse and says we're dorians are struggling to survive. i learned, you know, i make $400.00 a month and i cannot make it to the end of the month. the president increases the price of fuel and this affects us in every possible way. it wasn't long before the police and armed forces marched in. the president cleared a state of emergency

a week ago to combat racing. crime, and protests are not tolerated. the police are using fear, gulf, and rubber bullets to clear the roads. now they're going into this community and going after the protesters, the processors are saying, the president is animals with hunger, that is hurting their interests. and that's why they remain on the streets. the government says demonstrators are trying to generate chaos, but those protesting say they just want the price of fuel frozen, along with indigenous communities who want to hold in government plans to increase oil and mining production. they also want the police to stop using tier gus to break up the protest. yeah, java, my grandchildren are inside. one is 2 months old. they can't breathe, therefore in gas, inside my house. several people were detained, and others were injured during the clashes in san miguel liquor lead on president general last or is heading to glasgow this week to participate in the copy when he

seeks climate meeting of people here want him to look at what's affecting them directly in the community where you are, that the tesla were the dog. we don't have work, we are poor. there are no millionaires here. we all suffer here. there is no water, no electricity lasso came to power with a promise to improve the economy and has been trying to pass a series of business friendly laws that will help him get out of the current crises . he's now asking equip dorians to unite our own yamato. i'm calling for dialogue, consensus to think about what's good for our country, not in personal interests. while we rebuild ecuador, there are people who want to divide it, but people have lost trust in the administration. oh, they say the government's development plans do not include people like them. but he said, well, i'll just cedar. send me a like a lead on. a forests are known as carbon sinks for the 1st ever scientific study of unesco, wild heritage woodlands has now found at least 10 key sites and actually become

carbon emitters that's largely because of human activity. in romania, the unesco protected, copied in mountain, still there suck up much of europe. c o 2 emissions. but as net conk reports, the pristine forest faces a growing threat from illegal lugging all to him carpets the hillsides, the multi hued canopy marking the seasonal change of millennia ancient original forests sweeping across the copay, the mountains in eastern europe. if the amazon rain forest is the lungs of the world than the forest of the co pay, the mountains of the lungs of europe, they shot the c o $2.00 out of the atmosphere and put oxygen back into it. they regulate the water system. there's a vast, vast array of life here. in fact, the forests of the world are the most bio diverse ecosystems on the planet barton. this one's pristine environment. life is these squeezed out by the so called him,

the mafia. trees are being extracted illegally on an unprecedented scale by criminal gangs, and the locals who fight against it, pay the price. beatings are frequent, but people the murdered to 6 for its ranges have been killed in the last few years . leading to recent protests in the capital, bucharest, o, forest, and hurry, a petros mimics the call of a red stag. he tells me they used to be 50 or 60 in this area alone. and this is why this area was illegally logged 10 years ago and it ripped apart the ecosystem. but you can see this kind of new station from them more on to say that there is new maps you, you can see everything's, it's impossible to believe that they didn't know day know and day day encourage. and they took a lot of money. tanya says, it's clear who's to blame the politicians. we spoke to the government and they told

us combating illegal logging is one of the priorities of romania. it's a continuous action and we've already seen results for the people who live in the mountains. it's terrible. i don't, i, for the important aren't the interested at that for hundreds of years. we have manners the forest in a sustainable way. we take a small amount of wood for building and fire. it's very annoying that strangers come here from other countries and take away our way of life. i'm frightened of the people who steal to what i feel. my family is in danger, because this is a mob like organization then is the scale of losses. staggering romania loses up to 9 hector's, a forest per hour to illegal logging. that contributes to the huge amount of forest loss globally. in fact, between 199-2016, the world lost 1300000 square kilometers of forest, an area larger than south africa. and in 2020 tropical forest loss around the world equal the size of the netherlands. since humans started cutting down forests,

46 percent of trees have been felled around the world. 2020 was meant to be a landmark year in the fight against deforestation a year by which many countries had pledged to have or completely stop for us loss. but in fact, the plundering has increased here in romania. it's not too late yet. but if not now, when nick clark al jazeera copay, the mountains romania ah hello, this is out here and is the headlines. the you k says threats by france to block british boats from its ports are a breach of international law. paris is threatening sanctions of the u. k. doesn't grant more licenses to french fishermen in british waters? it is very disappointing to see the comments are that came from france yesterday.

we believe these are disappointing and disproportionate and not what we'd expect from a close ally and partner.
