with us as far as the united states is concerned? while they said they will face severe consequences, a point that was emphasized by jen saki, the white house press secretary at the briefing in the white house, should they provide no terry or other assistance. or that of course violate sanctions or, or supports the war effort, or that there will be a significant consequences. but in terms of what the specifics look like, we would coordinate with our partners and allies to make that determination. no, we've heard from a white house spokesman who was asked, what exactly will these sanctions look like? they said, look, we're not going to talk through the media and explain what we're thinking, but we will act together with all. busy our allies, it's interesting that they're taking that stance because of course, they were quite happy to leak to the media on sunday. that in their opinion of the russians had asked the chinese for this level of support, an employee has been arrested after interrupting the menus program on russia's

channel, one with a banner that called on viewers to not believe the public ana and stop the war in the crying the broadcast quickly cut away from the demonstration. the task news agency is reporting a channel is undertaking an internal review of the incident where a woman who works as an editor at the station released this prerecorded message about her protest. this was just reflect mccraney, the crystal cleaning. you're asking for an angry of what is currently happening in ukraine is crime. russia is a country aggressor or responsibility for this aggression lies on the conference of one person, vladimir putin. my father's ukrainian, my mother is russian. they were never enemies. this necklace around my neck signifies that russia should immediately stop the sprach recital. war you are not. brotherly nations can still reconcile. unfortunately, for the last several years, i worked at channel one promoting kremlin propaganda. and for that i am very ashamed right now. i am ashamed that i allowed lies to be told from

t v screens that i allowed russian people to be zombified. we stayed quiet when all of this was just getting started in 2014. we didn't come out to protest when the kremlin poisoned the volney. we simply continued watching in silence this in humane regime. now the whole world turned away from us. 10 generations of our descendants won't be able to wash away this shame of this fratricidal war. you or somebody who still ahead on al jazeera fear the war in ukraine will make food problems even worse. the country is already facing starvation and peruse congress green lights. impeachment proceedings as president petro castillo, faces, allegations of corruption. ah,

a wind you can start think wouldn't you like it? i know it's odd, but a sandy one, so it will be rather hazy atmosphere at best. a brief look for the south. it's still running in the middle of mozambique, and significantly sharing the felt the high felt in south africa. ah. on counting the cost, the u. s. bonds wash and oil and the e. u to shrink its reliance on wash and gas will high prices undermine global energy security, pow sanctions against moscow. a plastering the asian industry and reeling from food shortages power cost will show like a default on its depths. counting the cost on al jazeera, we understand the differences in the cultures, the cost of what we've been using kind of for that matter to you. i ah

oh, hello. are you watching al jazeera? i'm emily angry. he's a reminder of our top stories, this our ukrainian authority say dozens of people have left marion home as a 1000000000 convoy of more than 160 vehicles left message city. but 400000 are still trapped without food, water, or electricity. several russian strikes have targeted ukraine's capital peeve. at least 2 people were killed when a 9 story residential building was struck. and the u. s. is warning china against helping all russian more efforts in that ukraine. american and chinese officials met the talk to road u. s. official say china has signaled it might aid in russia,

a u. k. host household. and it is hoped that the scheme will benefit from tens of thousands of ukrainians fleeing the war. the scheme will allow you koreans with no family ties to the u. k. to be sponsored by individuals or organizations who can offer them a home. there will be no limit to the number of ukrainian you can benefit from this scheme. the team will be open to all ukrainian national residents. they will be able to live and work in the united kingdom for up to 3 years. they will have full and unrestricted access, the benefits, health care, employment and other support. now many have said that this scheme has been too slow and coming with less of the criticism or is the but the home secretary, pretty patel. pretty child have said in parliament that all was refugees fleeing the war. had to do was to turn up to the northern french port of cali and apply for visas to enter the u. k. but this turned out to be incorrect. refugees were left

stranded and none the wiser as to how they could apply to went to the u. k. hoping that the government, which was lagging behind it, european counterparts and helping ukraine refugees can now try and help many more try and give a helping hand. so many of those who are in desperate need of sanctuary to them breaking news now and an indian court has upheld a ban, preventing women wearing head scarves in the classrooms and the state of canada. elizabeth bron him is live for us in new delhi. hello there, elizabeth, what happened in court? hello, emily. well, the full badge of the canada high court is still reading its judgement that what it said so far is that it's dismissing various, please by students, income nato, who were challenging the ban on the wearing of head scarves in the high school, went on to say that head scarves are not part of an essential practice in the

religion of islam. and because they're not part of a central practice, the wearing of headscarf is not protected on the article $25.00 on the constitution, which gives the everyone and india the rights to the religious freedom. now that's what we know. so far the students had been arguing in the last a high court that there was no law which prohibits them from wearing the headscarf and so that the constitution allows them to, while the cosmetic, a state government was saying that while they agreed that there was no law that schools and colleges are allowed to make up their own rules about the wearing of about displayed religious symbols. now this is something that, this issue are up to earlier on this year in d p when it was just one school, the principal of one school who asked students wearing a headscarf to remove them spread to other schools and colleges and to be and then

court has. but as i mentioned, it has really polarized people, they were many protests in kanaka. in fact, all educational institutions in the state were closed for at least a week because of protests that was sometimes turning, turning 5 and, and it is you can say for certain that this is not going to be the end of this issue because the come out of the high court, the highest court of the state of cub nautica. but this is very likely to go to india, the top court to the supreme court with the judges. there will have to make a decision. and again, the way up whether the indian constitution, which gives everyone the right to religious freedom, whether it will also allow students muslim students to wear had called for now, because a high court has held up the bad saying that they're not allowed to. interestingly, it also said that students want to be allowed to wear, sat for on scarves,
