least some meetings with up gone women. but we've also been speaking to some leaders who say that this is not a united have gone diaspora. there are differences between the people. there's well one prominently to saying that they are against the taliban, but this particular group does not represent her as well. so it is going to be a difficult task ahead for all of the sides trying to reconcile the differences between the people living. and i've got to stand the people in charge of a son and those living in exile. the damage done, they like to call them says one the rest to release the funds, the gun funds, which are nearly about $10000000000.00. pretty down, predominantly in the united states being held. they want the sanctions from the united states, united states, as well as the united nation, is to be lifted against the group and their allies. also, the best is going to be pressing them hard on the issues of women's rights, civil liberties goes education. and this is something that we've seen as, as

a sticking point between the 2 sides that they are not able to move forward. we're not expecting any major breakthroughs, but diplomats have been telling us that this is a step in the right direction to try and reconcile the differences between i've gone themselves and try and solve the problem for millions of outcomes, living in desperate condition. a 10 from mariam atari and afghan journalist and women's rights activists. with more on those protest, paula, on our tax on the civic spaces and also the porter is alarming floor. and also as a contrary. as to the all the promises they have made into the international community and also to the people last on the other seeking for the recommendations . if they want to, governor, there is that county and they have to recognize a human rights on the one principle of on the phone. and as one of the human rights all, i mean, the rifle strike for vacation and i still workplace and rise to political

participation of woman. intentional to good husband like 3 days now that the talking them to the unknown place. and we don't know about anything about the conditions and the taller was now here to deny that we didn't take him. although the neighbors they witnesses or justify that. yes, the arm grew and arm gun month and it took him to a non please don't know anything about him. and 2 more is going to be meeting in normally we are ordering all, i mean the on to the really 3 females for a tester was out on the seeking asking for their rights. nothing goes. they want to go to school. they want to continue to cations, which is a fundamental basic rights. every person is living in this heard, has tried to give education,

to go to work and how that independence by and be them. why not? until the news in russia has rejected accusations as plotting to install a pro bosco leader in ukraine. you. k is claimed. russia is in contact with formal ukrainian politicians as part of plans for an invasion, but hasn't actually provided any evidence. the foreign ministry says it has information though that russia is planning to replace the ukranian president. lot. ms. zalinski with a former ukranian m. p. you have your moody of british foreign secretary, let's trust his britain will not tolerate what she called a kremlin plot to change the country's government. russia for its part dismissing the comments as dis, information and accusing britain and nato of deliberately escalating tensions of your credit or from dos of jabari. she's in moscow. the u. k. is claims of moscow trying to install a pro russian leader in kiev is absolute nonsense, according to the kremlin,

and it's aimed at trying to provoke attentions and escalate the situation with kia . the kremlin has said that these accusations are absolutely false and that their main goal at spreading this, this information as they call it, is to show a yet again, that these nato countries are headed by anglo saxons who are trying to, i incite further tensions, and increase the disputes between this country and ukraine. meanwhile, it appears that for now, diplomacy is not dead yet. as the british foreign secretary will be traveling to moscow to meet her russian counterpart in early february as well as the british defense secretary will be travelling to moscow. this week to whole talks with high level officials here. so for now, it appears that their path to diplomacy and dialogue still remains open. spoke to andre cotton of about all this. he is director general, the russian international affairs council and believes, and he sort of,

russian coo is unlikely. it's not very plausible. if you want to have a successful or you need to have a lot of support from the inside. are we sure would, you know, apparently doesn't, i think that there is only a small minority ukrainians that would support such a change of power. on top of that, if you change the governments ukraine, you will literally own, you know, you have to take your, of these countries and that would be a very, very expensive enterprise. so for the rational leadership, i don't think that the russian authorities started to go with such an option is concerned that on the certain set of circumstances, the leadership and you might decide to try to regain, don't use military force. and the training army has got much stronger than it was back in 2014. and they're trying to develop some folks and keep to believe that

ukraine kennedy peters. what i said by john to accomplish in not gotten a year and a half ago, and apparently they would like to deny you again, such an option, especially because that are almost a 1000000 of russian citizens now resides in don't boss us. president joe biden, meanwhile, has met his national security team to discuss the ukraine crisis. america said about 90 tons of military supplies to ukraine thing and wants to ensure its armed forces. i will stopped, but russia insisted has no plans to attack, even so ukraine's calling up civilians to join it's military reserves. and a 3rd of people say they're willing to sign up on our bill. hamid is in kiev. she met some. we've enlisted in a parking central give military drills, teaching the basics of combat to civilians from all walks of life. this is how

young people like allison here as him ankle a student in the science of plants, spend their week. carrington would come more game naturally from, you know, i just have to, for like my family garcia, hobbs, a distortion, auto deescalate, and i can continue my, your scientific work and not be accepted. we're it's all part of our program to become member of the territorial defense unit. they are run by regular military officers, o'con, but veterans like ego region of who 1st served in the den soviet army room, new to dublin luma. would go on. i don't feel comfortable fighting the russians world slavic, but we're on our own land and we have to defend it. we understand the situation. it's not nice to kill someone, but sometimes we have to, i feel responsible for these young people. there are arch similar drills are happening all over,

you call it. the government is hoping to form up to $25.00 gates to be deployed in cities around the country. last year, parliament passed alone that allows ordinary citizens to join these territorial defense units. now they are part of the country's strategic defense when their role is to provide popular resist, veronica martin, case the ukranian army is overwhelmed. these units and now part of the military, alongside the navy, air force and army, 32 percent of ukrainians. say they are willing to enlist. they won't carry heavy weaponry. that is left to the regular army. it's now better equipped, as military support poison from several western countries. but for martyr escape, the rule of this popular resistance unit is crucial, even though she can find herself in harm's way. our main task is to support the

army in, not in the front line, but on their book a bag, and also to protect a infrastructure, to the support surveillance. i'm friends that nobody knows what's gonna happen, but it's better to be prepared actually because it could change any time and to nowadays, changing very quickly. oh, us and russian diplomats haven't made any progress yet. the uncertainty has gone up a notch and with it the urgency among ukrainians to mobilize sooner rather than later. without the lamid al jazeera give in the news ahead ethiopians deputy military chief reveals his troops, planning, and operation to enter. take rise regional capital mckayla. it's been 2 years now since we had 1st went into lockdown. we're looking at how china is struggling to keep its covey case. ah

be well stocked. rescue workers in yemen are still searching for survivors trapped under the debris of a destroyed detention facility. hurt the officials say a saudi coalition as strike hit, the temporary holding center in saw the province on friday. saudi arabia still sang . the building was not on its list of protect sites. the support from cathy lopez or the young the agony isn't over for these families. their loved ones for kills in an air strike on a detention facility in yemen, sato province. now they must sort through bodies to try and identify their debt relatives. nearby rescue teams are hoping to find survivors under the rubble got a map of iraq. this is a crime to be added to their crimes. and this makes us more determined to face the aggression we're calling for all the relevant authorities to investigate this. more than 80 people were killed,

the attack dozens are injured or missing tylenol. and i guess in your homework either i'm but i was sitting with my friends and then the wall playing came and dropped the 1st strike on our water a while later, 2 more years strikes her migraines, women and children are among the dead aid agencies say the whose these use the facility to hold migrants who tried reaching gulf nations to find jobs in a statement read on air by saudi state tv. the coalition says the rebels fail to market the detention center on a no strike list. but what the hell of the damage that i get to believe that the alleged target was not included in the non targeting list, according to the mechanism approved with the office for the coordination of humanitarian affairs in yes, and was not reported by the international committee of the red cross the un is pulling for a transparent investigation, but on the ground and him and who the leaders say they're not to blame for the

escalating violence. now i'm, i'm getting my kids get it done. we are looking at a very big crime and there's a green light from the americans to kill civilians that that's what we see that by the targeting of the attention center inside the province and the continuous killing of civilians. while war criminals escape prosecution. 6 sliding has intensified recently, not on the saudi led coalition has launched airstrikes on what it says or what the military targets this, after the group carried out an unprecedented attack on the united arab emirates. last week. more violence is becoming a growing threat across the region. has the potential to spill over whatever happens in yemen will not remain a contained within yeoman's borders. it will spill over to the neighboring countries. i think that is specifically why your man is so important that i have on my face after him in a country already devastated by years of war. the fighting appears to be far from

over. cuz he, a little bit of the young al jazeera and signals have been held for a senior military official and several others who died last week in another. saudi coalition, as strike that one was in santa heard, the officials and their supporters joined relatives in the morning. general abdullah carson, alternate who led the air academy was killed when his home was struck. a number of his family members and neighbors also died. the government of bikini foster has denied reports that the armies taken control of the country says after a heavy gun fire was heard at multiple military camps, including a main base on the capital. want to go on saturday. security forces fire t, a gas at protest as barricading the streets and throwing rocks. there is anger at the government's inability to stop armed attacks spreading across the country. let's get an update now with nicholas hall. he is following developments from duck are in senegal. nicholas come all, i mean we can still hear gunfire as we speak in the capital. burkina faso eye

witnesses. i have tried to approach one of the military counts. the count go gown were met with warning shots, so people don't are not allowed to approach the vicinity of some of these camps. we're talking about free for made camps. 2 of them in the cap, 3 of them in the capital one, just outside in tie up. now, what's keen, what's essential to know here these military camp are key in securing the capital. and it seems that the gunfire erupted at the exact same time in all 4 of these camps. so despite the government statement saying that this is not a coo, perhaps it is a mutiny. no one really knows. but there was a pre planned coordinated efforts to try to, to try to state some sort of event inside these military camps. so the gunfire is still located inside those camps. we hear that the head of the military will address the nation in just minutes for now to try to tell us what the exact

situation is. but the question in burkina faso is who is in charge of the military right now. is it the president? is it the head of the army that is still unclear and this, this, these gun fires are up to get a moment just on the heels of a, of a ban protest yesterday from a civil society group calling themselves save burkina. they took to the streets. this protest was band calling out the in the heightening insecurity situation in molly, there's been an increased attacks by arm groups linked to al qaeda and i so they've been gaining grounds in the border areas of the east and north of the country. and those attacks are coming closer and closer to the capitol. millions of people are fleeing towards the capital. it seems to be the only safe place at least for now camel. that's nicholas huck keeping across developments and became a facet. thank you. in ethiopia or a senior military officials as government troops or making plans to enter to gras regional capital mckellar,

the deputy army chief said the country will not be at peace until the rebels. intake ry are eliminated to us. diplomats flew to out us up about this week to push for a cease fire. if he has been grit by conflict in the north for more than a year. make it a good in that to get a good michaela and to grey. or if you can territory, no one will stop us. we'll go in and eliminates the enemy. that should not be any confusion about this. if you can, people should not perceive as if the war is over. it is not over. a bus haji normal is the professor of political science at the university of toronto and told us he doesn't actually believe the government will advance on mckellar. there are some elements in it. your be, are the i'm hard. i, militias. ah, it's no nationalist. want to push the war to watch mckelly, or it's a likely that to happen for 2 reasons. as the 1st one is, of course, it doesn't want to risk a victory apartment victory an upper hand by going into another round of matters

guy, which can not be an easy victory. the 2nd is, it is, or it may be possible. the international community doesn't want to use what i give, taking place, integrate, the american government doesn't want this war, of course to travel. and they notice diplomats including justice, our secretary for africa and the american representative for the whole are heading to are just and this over there are in terms of diplomatic activities or so by africa union, the canyon government to find a solution. every is now a vision and get beat because a many, he has a shortage of money and the country has drought and galloping inflation. there is no, technically speaking to lunch and other major, more in check. right. so i think you talked to the other, the american president, but crazy biden, which many people simply consider to be a good sign. that means he is listening. i'm not really saying that negotiation

will happen soon, or the complete will end. but i think it is more chance not for negotiation now and as of a beach resort in toner that was destroyed when an under c. volcanic eruption triggered a tsunami. so felt like the world was ending. the local law resorts in kind of caputo took the full force of the powerful way. last weekend. the owner said the tsunami warning or siren didn't work. so i went through town wanting people to evacuate. one thing though, disney's thought on that day was awful. the world will come to an end. i've never seen sama like that. i'm the friday that might, that might before those, the squire's with different colors. those yellow was really was orange. and her mom as soon as something like that. and then i seen the black ash cursed look, seems like it was following us on the car with

well, new zealand is moving into the red level of their corona virus restrictions a traffic light system, meaning public gatherings will now be limited. prime minister jacinta rhonda and made the announcement which she said would affect her personally. my reading will not be going here, but i just join many other new zealanders who have had an experience like that as a result of the painting may contain anyone who's caught up in that scenario. i'm so sorry that you are. we are all so resilient and i know we understand that we doing this for one another and i know that will help us say continue on. more on this with when hey in oakland. the final clean up is underway here following the completion of the oakland marathon. and the organizers of this event will be breathing a big sigh of relief. because under the new alert level change announced by the government, the staging of this event would not be allowed. the prime minister, you send rod doing, had signaled that if only cross was found in the community and use deal and then the country would very quickly move to the highest red light alert level. and
