a supply shortage affecting hundreds of millions of people around the world. at the same time, unicef is increasing help for 7 and a half 1000000 children in ukraine will have more than that very shortly when we speak to rob mcbride in live. but 1st we go to ukraine, 2nd largest city, car cave and find out what's happening on the ground. there are some big is there. i sat, you've just returned to concave. tell us about what's been happening in the last few hours. well what i can tell you is that this is a regional administration building behind me. it was hit on the 1st of march. now we just spoke to the rescue service who were in there and they said that they found 2 buddies today. that's 20 days after he was around 20 days after he was hit defined to body and they said that they feel more fit in that this was the 50 cent . it was decimated by russian attack. that was bomb, just hit with missile strikes. and in the historic center now this square that i'm

standing in now would be really busy. at this time of year there's $1500000.00 residents in the city. there were 1500000. and we believe a 3rd of those have now left that we were the cause of her give not too long ago. and that way from there we had constant heavy artillery going and in going we came across a has to read them. you recently been hit, it was still on fire that many crate to the run that area, but many of left or left behind or the elderly and the vulnerable people that are unable to leave people that have need to take care of that they can't get back to the city, they just have nowhere else to go. but of course there are those that are unwilling to leave that want to stay here that they say that there will bonehead that grew up here. and they refuse to give it to what they say is rush and tara to make them skate and make them leave their home city. now there's been area sirens going on all day, and it's still constant. heavy artillery fire that we can hear even from the center of the city, and that's the situation that people have to live here under constant activity fire,

they don't know what will be hit next when it will be next. and currently we are hearing the air raid sirens going off, and that happens throughout the day. and even the night are very difficult situation to cope with, certainly for the people who've left who are left in khaki. thank you very much for that aside. big now, russian forces have intensified their attacks on the besieged city of merrier pole . the southern port city has been under siege for weeks, but their advance has largely sold on all fronts. vain, but stroppy reports mar, you, bull is being bombed into the past. ukrainian se, economic infrastructure factories warehouses are non military targets. survivors now suffering war will inevitably suffer in the future. their livelihoods destroyed . ah, on the ground rushes chechen soldiers hardened fighters continue to push on residential areas and suburbs,

waiting to meet them may be ukrainian volunteers like these math actors, singers, artists all defending their home suited to the boys so far. well, old people of volunteers really autumn, who basically never had a gun in the hands of never served in the army. they never thought that they would have a gun in their hands, sneezed, but all of them all with all of their intentions, are determined to resist. and this desire just brought all of them here, sir. what fear is natural, he says, to control it. you must embrace, oh, a small unit with little training days away from going into the fray. not to block rushes advance on the capital. mario pl keith turn a give satellite pictures show the russian armies use of artillery where its ground forces have been stalled by lethal ukrainian hit and run attacks the magazine vigil

in khaki region. another enemy jet was shot down these crew. our forces have already shut down so many russian jets and helicopters that we can only state instead of containing brains, their pilots heads. i empty, you look, i said as well, and this is not by accident. their hearts and souls are all so empty. unharmed but not untouched by the fighting performers in drove each have new rolls with cooking meals for soldiers on the front lines to moisture. yet the kiwis live. there is a saying that when the guns sound uses are silent, but we are not silent. we are in the rear. we are engaged in volunteer work because ukraine is in a difficult situation now to nasha. since the invasion began, they've sent thousands of meat balls and dumplings as well as meat stew soup, fish, and pancakes. from here to cave a, as long as their people remain in harm's way for this theatre troop,

the show must go on. zen basra. v o g 0. levine, and rob mcbride is also in the veil, joins us now. live, rob, and let's start with, with the talks. i mean present lensky has said he's ready to compromise way. are we with those stocks between the 2 sides? that's right. we are continuing to have a talk about towards which in theory is all to the good we hear from the crime then for example, that they have put forward various proposals to the ukrainians. they say they have had some feedback to some of those proposals, but not to others without going into any detail with the president landscape offices, bull bull coming. we know, for example, that he has said he is willing to make concessions on this very so any question of nato membership, but he's willing perhaps, to concede that he has intimated that before which it would go a long way to satisfy you would you would have thought that the russian demands, he also conceded, perhaps things like making

a brushing and official language in parts of ukraine when it comes to territorial demand. that's when things get a lot more difficult. but we do know from the lens keys office, that at least the 2 sides are talking even if it is by internet, by email, back and forth. so they are in contact me while the course the humanitarian efforts is picking up here in the b. this is where we have seen the gateway, if you like, for many hundreds of thousands of refugees wanting to escape from the conflict. moving through here and passing in the recent weeks to the european neighbors of the ukraine. and it coincides with the big foot by international agencies. organizations such as eunice f, for example, which is in the process of setting up a system of blue dot centers or hubs. these are centers with european neighbors with ukraine intended to help the show by the tearing crisis, some of the vulnerable families coming across and in particular the children. let me bring in here, james, elder from you, this f to talk

a little more about that. james. tell me the, tell us about the scale of this operation. one of the centers intended to do this safe spaces. so the style is meant to match the need. now the moment that's very difficult because we have the fastest growing human sharing crisis in terms of refugee numbers that we've seen since world war 2 for these safe spaces. their places where the families get a moment of respond, they get some water, they get some sanitation is increasingly they'll be cash assistance. there's 1st day, there's ideas with families who are separated from their children. so their breathing space, they're a safe space. they'll be here in ukraine already there in romania, poland, hungary, their essential places for kids and families on this treacherous journey. you mentioned there is one of the fastest growing crises that facing to give it, give us an idea of the numbers here of children and the potential for how this is going to develop in mind boggling numbers on sometimes lows to use them because i don't think people can always, you know, intellectual eyes,

them. at the moment we are seeing a ukrainian child become a refugee almost every 2nd. every 2nd since this war started almost a month ago, a ukrainian charles become a refugee $55.00 a minute. now that we have not seen that since world war 2, and you will have seen what that looks like, that's another child separated from his dad. it's another family split apart. it's probably a child who's in a bunker for a few days. it's a child who was going to school a month ago and has now had their life turned upside down. we have just come out of an air raid alert. that's why you managed to make it here. now we have them constantly during the day. you've just come from a bunker here and live even. tell us about that. yeah, it's a maternity hospital here. it's an enormous hospital. again, one of these ones run by incredible doctors, pediatricians obstetricians the era. sorry, goes often. everyone does dance his including scores of very pregnant women. so i'm talking about, you know, anna, who is 36 weeks pregnant with twins who, 5 times 6 times a day, 3 or 4 times the night is going to

a bunker in fantasy. it's a basement right. it's a dusty floor and they're ready to give birth down there. it's that moment where a family should be excited for this life changing moment with family and friends. no, they've lost their grandparents. they're in bankers in yes, they've separated from their husbands. they're under troll. not most of them are going into labor early because of the extreme amount of stress. and they're sitting in a dusty bunker waiting for this life changing moment, bringing the children into a country at war. we are seeing, you know, dealing with the children who make it this far and make it into neighboring countries in your oh, what about the parts of the ukraine the there are in concert. my, are you paul, lag? i can't keep these places where it's difficult to reach, but there is certainly a need. how is eunice? have other will aid organizations getting to help to those people? it's a great question. i mean, our 1st priority still has to be keeping kids alive because wait, while we continue to see this little. busy of indiscriminate attacks, as you say on hospitals, on health facilities on schools,

on places where kids play. we gotta keep seeing children die. now right now as we speak in the next 12 hours, we have water supplies. finally getting into mary mary paul, we have a truck, a train, i beg your pardon with containers getting into the hospital here in hockey iv it's still not enough because we know that every time humanitarian cordell's get opened, they get disrespected and there's more tax that's very difficult for agencies like unicef, but it's very difficult for those families to get out. so we are getting no supplies in hospitals across the country or now thank goodness wat up, but it's not enough. and those families, as you and i speak, you continually being bombarded yet again, as i have a night off to night. are you getting the cooperation to cross frontiers across at these that these fronts in these different lines of conflict? i think the last 3 days have been better, but prior to that you have seen that we are told that there's a humanitarian corridor and in civilians, a short leaving it all. we are informed that actually is heavily mind,

so it's improved, but it's not safe. a final thought, the units have grew out of the emergency at the end of world war 21946 when you had millions of children across europe displaced. and so what are your thoughts more than 75 years on your once more facing this kind of a crisis facing children? it's gutter and she isn't at your the train station here and it looks like we'll go to. it's all trains frosted up with father standing outside and children with a hand there you know, waiting, waiting to say well, if it was black and white, it's world which i don't think any one can believe we're going through this again and again, it's just tortures to see, hundreds of thousands of families having a lot turned upside down where a month ago, you know this was home. james l it. thank you very much. indeed. the humanitarian effort here continues a pace, along with diplomatic effort, said that apparently from both sides to try to get some breakthrough. but sadly, we're also seeing conflict continuing on so many fronts across ukraine. rom, thank you for that. rob mcbride life or i say in live is, as rob says, the conflicts continuing on many front. let's take

a look at the situation on the ground right now. areas in dread are held by russian forces and they're separatists highlight, ukrainian forces in besieged. maya paul is still holding out. there have been a further civilian evacuations from the city and ukraine says had successfully pushed back, rushing advances with counter offences near keith. nicole live and concave and fighting has intensified north. we northwest of keys with ukrainian forces saying every take in the suburb of mockery of the capital is self is relatively quiet, though. it's under a curfew until wednesday. that's after russia destroyed shopping center on monday, killing 8 people. iran con reports on the situation in cave. we heard very loud explosion near where we are. that was a cruise missile that was shot down by ukrainian air defense systems over the north of the city. and this seems to be a tactic that the russians are employing more and more. oh,

the advance into kia has actually stalled a anecdotally, i can tell you that that's what ukrainians are telling us. but it's been backed up by the international community, particularly british defense, who are talking about the fact that the russian army haven't managed to take it. take any major areas in the last a few weeks. now we are going to see more of these are strokes, rogan see more of these artillery and showing come into the city or a whilst their soldiers are still stalled on the outskirts, but the ukrainians are now mounting a counter offensive. or these a suburb of keep its suburbs, a bit misleading, as a term is actually and keep all bloss just outside of the city. it was narrow that we had been taken by the russians were give, but ah, the ukrainians have managed to force them out. russian forces in a sea of care. so i have once again fire tear gas and protesters,

people have been demonstrating against the russian occupation of their city since it was taken 3 weeks ago. and he's one person was injured on monday with ukraine accusing russia of using live rounds and stand grenades to disperse crowds and ukraine. southern city of mich alive has enjoyed 2 weeks of heavy shelling from russian forces, including attacks from hypersonic rockets, a mare, la fi, is there with more. no, la di, sure, a kilometer, limon with unit mach life. would that be done? we are exactly 10 kilometers away from nikolai, and we are now at the main road leading to the cities eastern countryside. this is one of the very few petrol stations that are still operational since the beginning of the war. most of the other stations have been shut down. according to the staff here, 3 to 4. missiles have hit the air. with 3 persons been killed, including one of the staff working in the special station along with 2 passing customer. the spot was among what was targeted last night with me claims book. there is no place to hide them every day. we go to work as if it was our last day of our lives. could have been me instead of my colleague,

he lost his life here. i don't know what divine miracle we had was when the station did not load entire size of the disaster would have been much greater than how may i be. i love you since the beginning of the war, gas is no longer so simply because the gas storage tanks are as you see above the ground and they are prone to expulsion. recently gas is permitted in some stations including this one. you may see the shrapnel marks on the outside of this gas tank . luckily it did not explode. how did the damage would have been catastrophic obama? over the past week we spoke about the declining pace of attacks and the sense of apprehension prevailing in and around the city. last night, 4 areas, my colleagues were targeted by the russian force is also the 1st time since the beginning of the war to see the city center target. among the areas targeted where a desert, the hotel and a mental health hospital or head of the world food program is warning of the diet consequences. the war will have full countries already facing famine and conflict.

speaking to our diplomatic editor, james space in brussels bay, the beesley says, russia's invasion has already had a major impact on global food and energy prices. this is a nation. it produces enough food for 400000000 people around the world. if we don't in this war and get their economy going again, so they're planting and harvesting. we're going to have a global supply problem later this year. this will be catastrophe on top of catastrophe if we don't act now. strategically and quickly. it could be hell on earth. so not just the people who we're seeing right now die in ukraine. do you believe the consequences of this in terms of food insecurity? potential famine could kill many more. i don't have enough money now before ukraine . i was already because of supply any supply chain issues like fuel costs, shipping cost,

and food costs before ukraine. i was already cutting 8000000 people to 50 percent rashes in yemen. 50 percent rashes in these year 50 percent rashes and chad and i can keep going around the world. now. we'll have a supply chain issue because ukraine produces between them and russia. 20 to 30 percent of all the grain in the world for corn, major, we, etc, etc. and so if you neglect the racial world just for ukraine, you, you've got to deal with ukraine, helped the people that need help there. but you can't neglect what's happening, middle east, or northern africa. otherwise you go have millions upon millions migrating here, europe it, this is no free lunch here. you go pay for one way. the other, the best thing to do is get ahead of it and stop the storm from getting worse. last spring in christine's new me at the united nations in your chris, in the un warning of devastating consequences, not just for ukraine, but for the rest of the world. that's right, and the secretary general, antonio gutierrez,

stopped and made remarks on the situation and ukraine signaling how serious the situation is getting there. he described it as morally unacceptable, politically indefensible, and militarily nonsensical. he, i gave these off the cuff remarks, britain, remarks, i should say they were formal remarks to the press, clearly wanting to make a statement on the situation on the ground. and putting the war in the context of the international law. he called out russia very directly saying that they were violating not only ukrainian sovereignty, but the un charter with their quote, a massive invasion of ukraine. and he described the suffering on the ground there as hell on earth, particularly in the city of mario poor, which is under siege at the moment. have a listen to what he said then 1000000 ukrainians have been forced from their homes

and that on the move. but the war is going nowhere, fuss for more than 2 weeks. mario ball has been encircled by the russian army and relentlessly bumped shelves and the thick for walked. even if michael falls, ukraine can not be conquered. city by city, streets, by streets, halls by halls. the only outcome to all these is more suffering, more destruction and more oral, as far as the i can see, you could it in people are including a living hell. and the reverberations i being felt worldwide is skyrocketing, fools, energy and fertilizer prices said happening to speedo into a global hunger crisis. and the secretary general went on to say that even as mario both falls after 2 weeks to what, and he said that some point the parties are going to have to come to the table and negotiate

a settlement. he predicted that russia could not capture all of ukraine street by street, and he called for an immediate cessation of hostilities, strong language coming from the secretary general, who also as we just heard, put the context in a, put the conflict in a global context and talking about the implications it was having on the rest of the world as well, in terms of food. i insecurity rising prices and so on this among growing concerned among member states here at the united nations and no less than 3 potential humanitarian resolutions that are now being debated behind the scenes here with a potential votes coming later this week on that front. again, signaling a international concern about the spillover effect of this conflict. thank you for that, kristen. to know me, live for us at un headquarters in new york. now the u. s. president is wanting a russia could resort to using chemical weapons in ukraine job and did not provide any evidence,

but said vladimir putin could escalate the violin since he sail faces. resistance from ukrainian forces he is back is against the war and he's now he's talking about new false lives. you said, you know, including you service and asserting that we'd, america, biological, as well as chemical weapons. you're simply not true. i guarantee you are also suggesting that ukraine has biological and chemical weapons in ukraine. that's a clear sign he's considering using both of those is already used chemical weapons in the past. and we should be careful about to was about to come. he knows will be severe consequences because of the united nato front, but the point is it's real. so what is a chemical weapon while is defined as any toxic material that can cause therefore harm to humans or animals that includes its components end or the weapons that release them. therefore kinds of chemical agents and they're absorbed through the

skin and lungs. they can suffocate people in animals and attack parts of the body, including the skin, eyes, blood, and nervous system. russia has always denied having chemical weapons which have been banned under international law for nearly a century. but it's long been suspected of using them against critics rushes ally, syria used them against its own people in its civil war. earlier we spoke to families party who's a former director of policy planning at nato. he says, the use of chemical weapons as weapons in this conflict would be a gross miscalculation by vladimir putin. the fact that a couple of days ago, allegedly they will have use a kind of hypersonic weapon is another sign that they are using the kind of weapons or threatening to use a kind of weapon that has 1st no place in this conflict. stroke on does not really have an operational purpose. so if you could put in trying to prove that he's not running out of options twice. in fact, if you look at the, the attrition rate,

the russian hazard t's, he is indeed running quickly out of options. but we should not always thought the estimate how hard it is for the ukrainians to resist. now you is on the verge of falling. this would be huge, symbolic, a kind of a negative sign for, for the ukranian bases. don't. so, and both sides, either way, fight against the claw. but the problem is put in, is doing it in a much more aggressive way. it would bring your conflict to a level that a has no interest in bringing, which will be essentially the west, especially the united states, would be urge to intervene because i think this will be clearly crossing a line that's been, it's been actually mentioned by the police prisoner, but also recently by president by done that weapons of mass destruction, you don't have any place in these conflicts wrapping. he has to,

this is signaling. obviously he's trying to scare us from intervening, and he's obviously trying to terrorize the ukrainian population. ah, let's take a look at some of the days i've been used now in a court in russia has sentence jailed kremlin credit collection of only to 9 years in prison. he was found guilty of fraud and contempt of court. the opposition figure says the charges are politically motivated. yvonne is already serving a 2 and a half years sentence. spanish smith is in moscow. he says, the verdict won't come as a surprise to many of been following the case. not only is an alexi, nevada only sentenced to 9 years in prison on top of the 2 and a half years. he was already sentenced to last year. he will serve a sentence, this new sentence in a maximum security prison. the prosecutors had asked him to be moved from the

relatively less severe penal colony he's in now to a maximum security prison. it's silence is effectively the last known, open political opponent 2 vladimir putin in russia. he had also earned the valley, managed during his time in prison, to get messages through his lawyers, and posted those on. instagram is instagram is now been banned in russia blocked in russia. so even if he wanted to, you can't read anything about in a valley. there either what's happened in the valley is unlikely to get any coverage at all on russian state controlled television. he's, he's not really known or heard or known about by people here as since he returned from germany almost a year ago now he'd been poisoned with a nerve agents on a flight from siberia. he was taken to rush up to germany for medical treatment and recovered and flew back in january last year,

arrested as soon as he landed. and since then has been in jail as not been outside of jail. and now really, it's unlikely you're gonna hear anything at all from lex in the valley for the 9 years. he's in prison. ross, miss nelson is lecturer at d, u. c. l scholar 70 kent, east european studies. he says, this is another way for russia to silence all forms of criticism in the country. i think the implications are also me. the intense behind this are to food on the one hand in russian state one is to signs of andy and make sure that he stays out of the political process. m, also stage unable to promote ensured of any part of his cause, promot, send out any messages or one more broadly. of course, this is another step in the russian regimes attempt to silence all criticism within the country and basically to attack what polluted effectively has called a 5th columnists as in traitors inside russia. my thing protest will continue to

some extent, not necessarily because he called for it, but because there is a genuine m, quite significant group of people in russia were protesting against the wall and against what the regime student right now inside russia, i fear, however, that repression from the regime will only increase and we'll have more of the days having news coming up on the news. our demands for justice after uganda security forces are accused of getting away with detentions torture and rape samaya faces. it's worse drought in decades. hundreds and thousands of children are going hungry as a result. and use ellen take a step closer to the well kept by reaching the last or in that qualifying competition. details is force with peter.

ah, hawkins here world. whether i'd say it, we're going to begin this one in the middle east. hello everyone. good to see you. it's all about the heats through the golf. so we'll go in for a closer look there. here's a forecast temperatures on wednesday. we've got minima in for a hiv 33. i'm going to put this a few days forward. now on friday we get this northerly, wind out of iraq. so that's dropping down the temperature and minima to $27.00, but del has still hang it on to the thirty's. as we looked toward pakistan, karachi, 33 degrees, we'll come back to this in a sec, but we've also got heat through southern iran. sure. as a hiv 26. ok promised to we talk more about karachi here is a 3 day forecast. i think by the weekend you'll hit 40 degrees, it's wall above average, and all has to do with a switch in wind direction. those winds have been fierce at times through the boss for us still dealing with them on wednesday for is stumble with a hive. 8 degrees, well below average, shower a pitcher there. and we've also got wet and cool conditions for the love that

storms are flared up across central parts of africa rate out to the gulf of guinea . and as we go toward the bottom end of africa, right now, we're seeing that rain fill in right across south africa site chance it will see it in cape town as well, with the high 25 degrees on wednesday. and now they're in the know see soon ah, ah, some journeys are tougher than others. but this through trip is even a tougher for the car and truck. it's dangerous, a world follows them. iraq and truck drivers endangering their lives just to make a living crash that might break your mirror or even kill you, because it is known from like if you find out if you have any pricing in that, we don't simply focus on the politics of the conflict it's the consequence of war.

the human suffering that we report time, we brave bullets and bombs and some of the world's most troubled regions. the army fled in the face of ice, was advanced. it is one of the most serious about the violence in recent years. in some instances, we are the targets because we give voice to those demanding freedom the rule of law, and we always include the views from all sites. oh, a. you're watching the news on al jazeera with me fully back people. a reminder about top stories. concave is coming under heavy russian bombardment. that's ukraine.

second city, russian defense ministry has released images of showing, showing rather military vehicles entering the region around ukraine. second city. the head of the world. food program says the war in ukraine will have diet consequences for countries that are already facing famine. david beesley says the conflicts has already had a major impact on double food and energy prices and a court in russia sentence from in critic next in vol. me to 9 years in prison, he was found guilty of fraud and contempt of court. the opposition figures says the charges are politically motivated in other world news. the 2nd day of confirmation hearings are under way for us. supreme court nominees tangy brown jackson present. joe biden nominated the federal judge to the country's highest court. she's the 1st black woman to ever be selected for. the post. judge jackson is said to succeed justice, steven brian, who will retire in june. the united nation says more than 300000 children in somalia,

severely mound norrish. the country is going through its way drought in 40 years. more than half a 1000000 farmers and herders have lost their crops and animals wanting some view as may find the images in mountain webs report. distressing. this is what somali as drought, whatever has done to this 3 year old boy. his father de la d mohammed was a farmer who all his crops died last month. they joined hundreds of thousands of people who were leaving their homes from make shift camps. but there wasn't enough food or water in the camp either. i left my wife in the camp. she was also sick. i had been here for 14 days with my son in the hospital and is slowly making recovery day after day. the u. n says more than a 1000000 children malnourished,

a june april help is needed now. malcolm web al jazeera, southern somalia. human rights watch has accused uganda security services of committing what it calls, how rhetoric abuses the rights groups, alleges security forces are abducted people at gunpoint enforce them into unmarked vehicles. victims say they were tortured and raped while they were held in detention. according to human rights watch, security operatives reportedly extorted money from victims and their families as a condition of their release. it says government reforms are needed to hold those responsible to accounts that speak to andrew wender. bob is his, he abandon, journalist and managing editor of the independent that's a current affairs, news magazine is joining us from compiler. the capital of uganda. andrew, very good. have you with us on al jazeera, what is your reaction 1st to this report? is it an accurate assessment of how opponents it seems to be gunned and government

are treated? i said, a 100 in the system that sit there. been 3 webs over arrests. 201820. 19 the entire seduce. organization arrested. ledger number of people bustling to viewed 8 to one victims. whoever arrested, tortured on an island and a man exhausted from them. they, i was able to publicize these interviews under the head of intent of seduce organization was a fire, but he was never punished, and none of his collaborators was arrested. and these victims, i think i've looked at when on presented the 2nd wave of cost were the killings that happened during the protest of 2000 and november 2020 and day. there it is very difficult to establish culpability of who was responsible for the killie because when the rest to place this, if the savvy says deploying the different amazon secured to the i may, the police, the local defence units, the data. so used organizations that you place on where that intelligence enron was

deploying without this information command on, on for it's difficult to establish who shot when and what, but what it only deployed without the government giving its approval for their deployment. i mean, it would, but it is government that it's a government that, that brought to them. yes. if you have different amazon government out with the guns and iran is shooting, how do we establish culpability that? that is either the, i made a police or the local defence units that shot and killed people. so there was studies in the drum and then ultimately responsible because the buck stops that the government does mental it is of course, responsible. i was saying it is difficult to establish individual culpability of just be reading the human rights report. they say they have not punished those who shot it's difficult to even know who shot and therefore hard individually accountable individuals in the government. now decide, well of course is one of the elections. there were a series of abductions over people considered to be political coordinates. and this before to be 2nd good additional facilities as well. this problem with this one is

government no to be directly. they had the thugs who to call it should hired to live with that. who hired the thanks. i think some elements in the city of the services with the power from my bow, big go interested a member through to the both of these guys were bigger guys were coming with heavy guns wearing sweden roads wearing so that braving civilian cars and abducting people. so it was, it is very difficult to say that this is the police, this is the i made the fussy demi havoc elantra. yep. when you say it's very difficult to pinpoint, but why does ugandan government allow the, the proliferation of these parallel security organs? is that not tacit approval of what they do? i don't see a special approval. it's active approval, in the sense of the seat government of uganda. i think once to convince our mom but acts, i'm still a valid group, vistas from those x and therefore achieve what do we go?

deniability minute governments there can improved wrong groups. food, all shadow states to do these kinds of things. and that does look because it wasn't, it was a government entity to the root cause of this facilities that i think the government of uganda has vis you guidance on what it is trying to do for them. and in the absence of law mobility, the population around is vision. it's good, it gets a home and because working to them down, well, let me ask you that because book, let me ask you and you're one of the victims that we spoke to recently on al jazeera, the rights act, mcqueen's advocate, rule care of, as she georgia who's fled to europe? i says the president's own son president was seventies own son, sat in while he was being tortured when he was in detention. is, is this being condone or ordered from the top? if the president's own son is sitting in on these torture sessions, what occasionally for that i have also sure whether that allegations try not to present some personally, he doesn't restrict me as

a person called going to at the chamber to supervise the touch of affairs and i think it is wonderful, it may be gazes and incentive laquisa to play with his a president son in order to capture in the machine. offend on media attention by but it's not a discount plan or is it i, andrew, i mean to have been numerous reports. i'm in human rights watch report is ino is, has a lot of evidence. so all of you know and testimonies from people. and this only adds 2 to what's already in the public domain and the world has seen it. is this the image, uganda, and government wants to show the world? are they going to be any reforms you think to stop these kind of tactics and and brutality filled out the hovel of their reforms? the government of uganda, but still seduced agencies from abducting people, taking the empty language, special messages and putting them there. but that is different from saying that barefoot is a prison fan, who was pessimist, revising. it is like saying because the americans such as prisoners in upgrade, our president bush's daughter was person with esp,

revising it. you see the study administration was held responsible than if they were, if they were torturing prisoners, the administration was held responsible for the government of uganda is ultimately responsible. exactly. so i think we need to identify the key cupboards. the best of the services of the government, of uganda who have been perpetrating these torture, identify and punish them. of course we can look at blue blankets, punishment to every single person. i have to identify who is responsible for this up specifically, who is responsible for their productions, illegal to visual and butcher or opponents of the government. and if you confess that i am what that frontline for identify those people. one of them, of course, is the format you form invented villages in that a secularization called ms. a general caca. because i interviewed people who clearly pin the point that is possible involvement in looking to them, they wouldn't respond. i have a lot of recordings of his bus little culpability and others. we've had to begin there where we have clear evidence and we'll, we'll leave it there. thank you very much for talking to his andrew wind, managing editor of the independence. joining us there from kampala,
