capacious toy, a st totally destroyed, keep central station has become evacuations, with russian forces coming closer. tensions are going up by the hour. stay with al jazeera, for the latest developments. ah, this is al jazeera, ah, hello, i'm emily. ang, when this is the news and my live from, so ha, coming up in the next 60 minutes. you as president joe biden is among world ladies at a nato summit, as diplomacy, tags sent his day to ukraine, wall. the battle for survival in an intensive care unit, doctors in khaki have struggled to treat the wounded in a city under constant bombardments and north korea launches and intercontinental
1:01 pm
ballistic missiles. for the 1st time in 5 years. i'm joanna roscoe, with sports. it's crunch time in qualifying for the fee for world cup as the european playoffs begin. christiano, rinaldo sports school are among the top teams. still looking to put that place at 20221 month into russia's invasion of ukraine world laid. is there again trying to find a way at nato g 7, an e u summit for being held in brussels to push for an end to the war, punish moscow for its actions and strengthen europe security us president joe biden is among those attending. but in your crime, cities continue to be hit while troops are holding off russian advances around the capital. there's widespread destruction across several regions. among them is the
1:02 pm
southern port city of mary home, where more than 100000 people remain trapped with correspondence in brussels and ukraine covering all angles of this story. kimberly hel kitchen, standing by in the belgian capital. rob mcbride is in the v. but 1st, let's cross to our diplomatic editor james base who's also in brussels. hello there, james. so we have a 3, some, it's happening at the moment in one day. the goal is obviously to a p unified against russia, but that's not necessarily the case. is it no, it's not. i mean, i think you can look at the situation so far after a month and say that certainly with regards to the european union, they've gone much, much further than many would have suspected in terms of our sanctions in terms of german defense policy in terms of the you taking the unprecedented step of providing a $1000000000.00 over a $1000000000.00 in financial aid. so that weapons can be bought for ukraine.
1:03 pm
these steps that unprecedented. but the problem is, i think that's where they go next and whether you would like to go next is somewhere where i don't think they're going to get any agreement. and there's likely to be a way forward. certainly no, no fly zone that the koreans would like. that is not a possibility. the other key problem is the whole issue of sanctions. the e u has passed for parts of sanctions or face is being worked on. but it's not going to deal with that crucial energy sector, all of that money that president putin gets from orland gas and there's another potential route building there. not only that, they're not gonna cut that energy sector. now, the russians are saying that they want to be paid in rubles to, to, to try and help their flagging currency by demanding payments in rubles, that has enraged the ukrainians. the ukranian foreign minister said if, if they go ahead and do that,
1:04 pm
then that will be effectively killing ukrainians. so that's another problem potentially, that these leaders have to face up. but i think the main effort, remember, each of these bodies has met already in the past, but virtually the main effort here is to show unity to show a common position with regard to russia and what's going on. and you're going to see a lot of talk, i think, of war crimes being committed. they're going to say that repeatedly that that is what russia is doing. the other focus, i think that's important, is on what russia might do next. and the fears that president putin might use weapons of mass destruction, he's not ruling out a nuclear option if it was as existential threat to russia. and of course, there are repeated fears among the nato allies that the russians may use or false flag operation. blaming the ukrainians for using a chemical or biological weapons. a lot of thinking about that during this day of
1:05 pm
summer tree. okay, no doubt. we'll come back to you throughout the day. thank you very much. james bass live for us in that brussels. let's go to our white house correspondent now kimberly hallett, who's also there. hello, they. kimberly. what does the u. s. president hope to achieve by being in europe is way well, he's got a long list of things he helps to achieve. not only is he, as he meets currently with nato leaders hoping to bolster for not just the short term, but also the medium and long term, the sort of security and defense posture along that eastern flag facing russia. but he hopes to ensure that this is something that continues hopefully long beyond this conflict with ukraine. and so that is something that is being discussed. in addition, the u. s. president, also going to be meeting with g 7 in european leaders to discuss punitive penalties,
1:06 pm
in addition to the ones that the united states in coordination with allies has already put in place. so what could that look like? well, we already know that there is some concern that russia may be coordinating with china to try and evade some of the sanctions already in place. so we know the u. s . president is going to, in addition to announcing a new package of sanctions by the united states war with the other nations to ensure that russia is not able to evade the ones that are already in place. now to that, and we should also point out, one of the big discussions is going to be pushing some of these european leaders to go even further than they have already in terms of the sanctions. they have been put in place so far. and as james mentioned, one of the big issues for those european nations is the reliance on russian energy . so part of that discussion will be how to see the long term that there could be alternatives to that. and then we also know that in terms of this, what we expect from the u. s. president is
1:07 pm
a discussion overall about strategy. and the strategy of this president has been to really try and see that nato soldiers and us soldiers do not come in direct confrontation with the russian military. they hope to contain this to ukraine. in other words, what they want to do is use financial penalties to drain the russian war machine so that this does not spill beyond ukraine's border. so that's really what the focus of these meetings will about. ok, we'll cross back to you a little later. kimberly how can live for us in brussels, let's head to ukraine now. where rob mcbride is standing by for us in the city of levine rock. while all these diplomatic meetings are happening in brussels, what's the situation on the ground in ukraine? a month into this war? while the ukrainian president vladimir zelinski using this exact day as a day of solidarity with ukraine,
1:08 pm
he has called for people and ukrainian cities and towns to come out on this day to show that support to show that defiance, if you like in the face of this russian invasion also, and he's daily address. he used for the 1st time english to appealing to the international community in particular trying to get his message out that to western style democracies also to come out to show a degree of support to show that all the garrity with the ukrainian cause you have to say that level the battlefield activity that is taking place around the country of which there is a great great deal. both sides could claim a certain amount of successes, but we know that both sides have had setbacks when it comes to the the p. all battle on the global stage, you would have to say that the ukranian seemed to be winning at every turn. i think the russians had hoped early on that using different ways of getting that information out that this information allegedly also using troll, found that they were going to be able to control the narrative. well at that just
1:09 pm
doesn't seem to have worked. it may work domestically back in russia. you may find a majority of people in russia themselves actually believe in the righteousness of the cause, but internationally at the ukrainian seemed to be playing a very clever hand with the very clever use of that secret weapon. it seems in the form of that president mister lensky, on the battlefield. he is still in power against all yards and against early predictions. and now we see in recent days, the ukrainian military claim into not only of turned back to some of the russians, but also counter attacking and actually taking land back in territory or back from the right of russians in particular to the west of the capital key votes is strategically important. we are also seeing a more activity down on the southern front and a city that hasn't really had much mentioned in the conflict so far that the a port city of burdens. now this is a relatively smaller a city to, than its neighbor, maddie, you, paul, well, which of course, is the scene of
1:10 pm
a far more serious fighting. but you ask was taken by the russians in the early days of the war. it is there that we know that russian vessels have been using it. well, now since there thursday morning we've seen on the us social media as scenes of explosions and fires breaking out what the, what appears to be either the dock side or at on a vessel or more than the dockside or with the ukrainians, claiming that they have destroyed a, a ship, they call it the oscar, which is an amphibious landing vessel. or we, they say that it has been destroyed and we've seen from images at that other vessels appeared to be leaving the port. there's been no comment from the russians, but we do know from russian control television, that the oars was in this port as recently as 2 days ago. but it just goes to show that all along this southern front, it remains an extremely volatile situation from a desk all the way through to maria pal and extremely deadly. yes,
1:11 pm
penny leaving pans. thank you very much for that update to running brian black for us in that living rashes military has been shouting, ukraine's capital key. the overnight in man can. is there one of those? actually, our colleagues, al jazeera arabic witnessed 1st hand. they were on the scene of a bombing that took place. the previous date was one of the biggest attacks that had taken place so far. at least 8 people have been killed and the damage was across a massive area. it was a shopping mall on my colleague, my colleagues were actually stood there about to go live when a shell hit a car ah, killing one person inside that car we've been speaking to, the arabic team that were there. they said the shelling came out of nowhere, they had a loud bang. and then i, they heard a huge explosion on the ground. and that was where they saw a person who had actually died. that was one attack. not far away from that
1:12 pm
shopping mall about a few kilometers. there was another attack where allegedly, a russian journalist with a killed. now this russian journalist was an opposition activist. she had connections to the opposition activists that alexi nev only who is a key russian dissident. so she had connections to him, she was also killed in that attack. her organizational insider, a very vocal about the fact that they suggest that she may have been targeted. we have no idea where that she was or not. the city of khaki has been under constant bombardment for weeks now. ukrainian forces offending off russian troops, but his assa bag reports from a hospital day. it comes at a cost, a warning. this report contains images that you may find disturbing. a desperate attempt to save lives overstretched and overworked,
1:13 pm
medical staff at hockey regional clinical hospital under unprecedented pressure. the intensive care unit is filled with the victims of this war. yes, and then for him i would just have to go. i haven't treated civilians with combat injuries before. i'm overwhelmed with the amount of cases. sometimes we receive 10 people from one location, but we've learned to do it quickly, provide aid. it's our experience accounts and that's the promote the work under constant threat to their own lives. we are standing here and listening to the sound of shilling. i don't know where it will hit the hospitals impala cleanser chip, or destroyed in those over the hospitals don't work anymore. we don't know what will be today. if the bomb lands the hospital will no longer exist, the children's hospital is destroyed. the center for blood donation operates from the basement. many of these people were in their homes when they were hit by shrapnel shilling was intense, then it stopped then it started again. 3 people were killed immediately. i'm the
1:14 pm
only one that survived, but have all these injuries. one of the kind of injuries that you're seeing downstairs they are more patient is one of the most sashes leg has been amputated. you know, actually there was a lot of patients with serious injures right here. but the, this boy is the most strong well from all of them because most of them are crying, asking for saving their legs and arms. but he was the only one who said, just do what you think you need to do. so this is a real warrior, still heart and he has one message for the world, close the sky, emotive, green russian. these wards are filled with casualties from this war. here most of patients are, after all, tillery it's not because most of patients was wounded by or tillery is just because
1:15 pm
most of patients after aircraft are dead. though this is the most heart patient in another ward. we find you guinea telescope. he threw his body over his 8 year old son when he heard explosions from his son was unharmed, travelling above his chest and then go out. here. he was struck by shrapnel. the piece of shuttle that we see here were shown pieces of shrapnel by the stuff. this tiny piece killed, a woman. missed him, a deal him by staying here. we are defending our families. i'm working for victory . we are together. we are in a common cause. this is my bed one for the staff here. this is their life. they sleep in the corridors to stay close to their patients and hope the walls were protect them. if the hospital is hit for. and you flip card yup. patients like sasha, a medical staff her have all asked for the same thing. oblivious of the politics around it. they want the air space over ukraine and this city closed because if the
1:16 pm
damage done from the bombed are dropped from planes, the causing the most casualties. i said, bake algebra harvey. if the translation in the ukrainian city of levine has been of focal point for refugees escaping the wall as fighting intensifiers, thousands of displaced, people continued to make the journey to relative safety in the west design best robbie reports dozens, thousands, millions behind the numbers used to describe what is happening here. are the people living this war, those fighting it, those fleeing it. this is the picture of displacement in ukraine's. the russian invasion has devastated city after city. this family left of the fca in the dynette screeching
1:17 pm
after seeing their neighbors killed the agenda. might them don't want to do a phone. i want to go back home. she says we left everything there. there's a lot we're glad to book guys was my advice to those who are steel because when he got leave while they haven't flattened everything, there was nothing. no gas is. if you know light, you know water, but she had no food because all the shops go been ruined already. it's impossible to live there. the levine, central train station is the last major hub for refugees from the war escaping to europe. ah air raid sirens here, pale in comparison, perhaps, to the violets they've left behind. ah,
1:18 pm
victor, in rows are from a village near car keys under russian occupation. after hiding in their basement for 2 weeks up, they found someone to smuggle them out. just before the russians closed, the check posts, they say it was like living in a cage like you live with me and that's why we won the world to hear us does a free country. no one was heard here before. for me personally, i lived with a man, he is a kristen, and i'm and slim. and we lived happily, ever thing was great, and in one moment it ended. please stop the war with easy way to savannah. far from the fighting, but not far enough yet. as the war begins to move west, more people are leaving the country. one person on the platform told us,
1:19 pm
there's an easy way to tell where the train is going. if it's full of men, that's a domestic journey. if it's full of women and children, those are the only ones that are allowed to leave the country trains leaving the station or pulling families apart later, luckily than ever. so just close the skies. she says that is all some stop in levine before continuing on a chance to rest, to recharge a brief moment of calm before the chaos of getting to the border and getting out of ukraine. the scene basra b o. d 0 louise chechen fighters have joined the war and ukraine on both sides of the front line. ramson catera of prudence, border and later of russia's,
1:20 pm
chechen republic says he's personally going to fight, but it's unclear how many forces have taken up arms. at least gallano is a political science lecture at columbia university. she has persian is using kitchen fighters to create fear christian uses to dear, of forces. somewhat as i met a propaganda tool as an attack dog and could years from south being a war lard of the church checking in region us is psychological, intimidation in the use of force against his own population and against any political opponents. so there's, there's a lot of propaganda value, i guess, ukraine and kind of just the goal is just so fear among ukranian civilians by using these very feared and brutal and tyrannical. basically,
1:21 pm
forces known as mackenzie said, he wants to appear like a tough guy, but it looks like it's he either never with ukraine or if he was maiden name the only for an hour or so. so she did allow some of this fighters to, to engage in battle, and many of them were killed, including a commander. so, looks like since that happened. and that was early on in the war. many of the church and for several pulled back from the french, and he's filming them again for his domestic reasons, with instruction. yeah. and i'm filming them as, as i've, as this, they're in the heat of battle. and actually, there are no longer apparently doing much of the fighting there. as we heard from him, ron con, russian investigative journalist has been killed in ukraine during a rush and bowman campaign. ok sign of alina was reporting in cave for the inside a website. she died while filming in the cd believe previously worked for russian opposition, figure alexis of own as anti corruption foundation,
1:22 pm
and had left russia a head of the diplomacy in europe today. the un security council rejected a resolution drafted by russia on the humanitarian crisis in the crime. it made no reference to moscow's attacks, only russia and china voted in favor of the resolution. while 13 members, abstained, christian salome found this report from the united nations. 86 countries co sponsored ukraine's resolution in the general assembly, demanding humanitarian access to civilians and an end to russia's aggression. we util. sandeval who message came as conf contributing to a breakthrough in humanitarian action on the ground and making the aggressive stop eats on, provoked war france. one of the resolutions authors described the war as a threat to international peace and security deposit that was, would assume the draft resolution introduced this morning by ukraine is the fruit
1:23 pm
of an inclusive process. and it reflects a balance taking account of the proposals made by countries from all regions. there is an urgent need to act and to reach an immediate cessation of hostilities. but russia's ambassador called the text, political and disingenuous. and as the speeches continued brought his own version of a humanitarian resolution to the more powerful security council lucian wiggle. so were submitting for a vote, a resolution which is non polar the size, and is in this way similar to other draft humanitarian resolutions of the security council. this is something which un humanitarian representatives on the ground would be very interested in more so than any humanitarian resolution from the general assembly. russians resolution was soundly defeated with its only support coming from china. the resolution that we saw today was a cynical effort by russia to exploit the crisis which they have caused
1:24 pm
their resolution cold for respect finch national humanitarian law that overlooked the fact that they are committing war crimes. south africa sought a compromise. submitting a humanitarian resolution to the general assembly, which didn't call out russia. it was among 35 countries that abstained on a vote 3 weeks ago condemning russia's aggression. so many countries signed up to speak in the general assembly hall about the humanitarian situation. the speeches went on all day and are expected to continue into thursday. the cranium draft is expected to pass, given it has nearly 90 co sponsors. the question is by how much ukraine and its backers are hoping to show russia's increasing isolation on the international stage . kristen salumi algebra. the united nations 20 more head on the news now including a cold to come on the french island just corsica. as the body of a national leda,
1:25 pm
yvonne colona returned home. and after people exit in her last tournament, naomi, a soccer make a winning work in miami that's coming up in for a tour of the world news now in north career, appease to have launched its 1st intercontinental ballistic missile since 2017 japan says it flew for 71 minutes and landed in the sea off the coast of i maury prefecture. it's the latest in a series of launches by appealing, young kim jung own, a promise to stop tests. so these types of myself of talks with former us president donald trump, back in 2018. john gretz is head of asia pacific news at james defense intelligence. he joins us from bangkok. thanks for being on this news. our john
1:26 pm
festival. what ease and intercontinental ballistic missile? and what makes them so dangerous? well, an icbm is a missile that can travel across continents. and in this case, the missile that north korea, we believe north korea has tested, is, has been identified as the last song, 17, also known as the k and 28, which has a range of around 13000 kilometers. although this capability is not proved, and this is kind of like a target of that, i see pm. this is a suspected kind of capability and the aimed for capability of that weapon, but it's not yet achieved. and of course, the range of that of the song 17 would put it in easily in reach of, of the united states and anywhere else pretty much in terms of north korea's rivals across the world. and so that's what's,
1:27 pm
what makes it so dangerous. so given how dangerous it is, talk us through the timing of the launch, john, what you make that? ok, so as you rightly said, north korea has launched a series around 11 or 12 missile launches since the beginning of january. and i think there's a few factors here. first of all, it's clear that the joe biden administration is not willing to enter any negotiations with north korea, unlike president trump. and that's kind of antagonizing peeling young. so young young is responding in the, in the way that it knows how, which is to cause instability across the indo pacific and launch the series of missile tests. and throughout the year in 2022, we've seen the range of different kinds of my cell short range, missiles, intermediate range, missiles, some cruise missiles. but like you say,
1:28 pm
this is the 1st icbm. and this was hinted that in january, when, when those korea kind of indicated that it would go back or do you turn on its promise to not develop? i see pm's and we see that you turn as a direct response to an talk what it's what a proceeds is and, and talking to them from the us. the us introduce, thanks more, thanks is on north korea, in january, the by the ministration is certainly not so in any willingness to negotiate with north korea, on the side, on the sanctions that is imposed on north korea. but there are other things going on as well. so for instance, south korea has recently had the presidential election and the new president will assume power in might. this is another thing that north korea wants to send. the message now wants to send a message that we are here. we are calls against ability and we are forced to be reckoned with that message specifically to,
1:29 pm
to south korea. another. another thing that's involved is north korea announced a 5 year weapons plan. certainly in the beginning of january and beginning of 2020 and that 5 year weapons plan makes it very clear that the modernization of the north korean armed forces is a priority and will receive investment. so plenty of message is being sent there. what impact will this launch have on the security of phase of northeast asia? and as you said, more broadly across the world, given that this message could potentially land as far as the us. well, north cruise thought 2 of us in undertaking these tests for some time to support the development the i c p. m, despite the suspension. but we have to remember that that capability is not proven . we have to remember that that is not yet evident. we've seen tests and we saw tests earlier this year, what the u. s. of identified as the was on 17, but what north korea said were tests of recognizance satellites. so it's clear that
1:30 pm
north korea doesn't have that capability yet. that it's, that the icbm capability is a target for north korea and the target for north graves to develop something that will cause certainly danger and risk across the whole well, but it's not, it's not quite there yet with that capability. but nonetheless, the us will be making sure that it's, it's, it's, it's certainly analyzing and investigating the policy of this claimed icbm and seeing indeed, but it can what it can achieve. and that's an interesting point because what we've seen is obviously the ukraine war going on the same time. and north korea obviously sees this is an opportunity to real, to really kind of, to throw a stone in the, in the, in the pool kind of thing into what's upset that the international kind of equilibrium because it, and it needs to show that it's a need to mike,
1:31 pm
so the other people of the other countries are aware of its potential power. and so this is part of the game that young young he's playing. yes and certainly we will watch this space. thank you for breaking down for us john greg at the head of asia pacific news at james defense intelligence. thank to lead on this news. our tribute slow for one of the most influential thanks women of her generation. madeline albright has died aged 84 we looking to have a disappearance of tourism might actually have benefited one of the most visited sides in the world. and on the final stretch, canada can reach the world cup for the 1st time in 36 years that so coming up with joe in force. ah,
1:32 pm
we've got days of rain ahead for eastern australia have one. here's the details. so it's an onshore flo scooping up that moisture shopping it on shore. and this is pretty much going to stall out here. so about 2030 millimeters each day for the next $5.00 to $6.00 days. that's going to pile up quickly as it shifts into southern queens and his wife. of course, all of these areas still trying to recover from extreme flooding in time for the other side of foster alia. we've got tropical cyclone charlotte, that's going to push some moisture into western australian. it's also gonna with up those winds as well. now for new zealand, there's been plenty of fighting on the north island. gets been sought 3 times. it's monthly rainfall in the span of 24 hours in this disturbance. it's slow to shove out, so still some more rain for the escape on friday we would go to southeast asia right now and for java, we've got some showers right across the island, and at times we will see some foundry downpours. here. the rain is filling in
1:33 pm
across china, toward central areas in the east, the dark or the color here, the more intense the rain will be falling breezy conditions at times as wall. so we're going to see more clouds floating to the korean peninsula ahead of those showers. but look at temperatures here. 19 in sol and top to bottom across japan. things are looking good, while tall sunshine for tokyo, with a high of 18 agrees, ah, a sanctuary for journalists. it was a haven from the wall and shelter for civilian refugees. were like scattered into the garden during cambodians, bloody sa stuff, flooring us up to leave and suddenly we were turning the exxon. the co rouge had taken anything of value out of the hotel cambodia. let the know a new episode of war, hotels on al jazeera, examining the headline. what is the situation there right now?
1:34 pm
it's worse than any kind of nice mat. it was how every unflinching journalism. what is it telling us about india? it's telling us that we're going down a very may been restored, sharing personal stories with a global audience. here i am meeting with people sharing the same struggles, sharon saying, stories explore and abundance of world class programming on al jazeera. like the ah ah hello, you're watching on to 0. i'm emily angry. he's reminder about top stories this hour . you as president joe biden is in brussels for a special meeting of nato g 7. and you ladies,
1:35 pm
look at ways to push for an end to fighting and strengthen europe. security rushes invasion of ukraine is entering a 2nd mom's, but most of those forces are facing increased resistance on the ground. thousands of people have been killed and millions displaced over the past. full weight and gunfire had been head early on thursday morning in cave, but it was an unusually quiet, not the ukrainian capital that same bon bonded in racing days. a shopping mall was reduced to rubble by a russian and strike on sundays. joining us now and says indo high mountain bushera al jazeera senior political analyst, thanks for being on the program. my one. let's talk about what's happening in brussels. we're seeing a picture of unity, but there's obviously fractures beneath the surface. sorry. not everyone is on the same page when it comes to sanctioning russia talk us through them. you know,
1:36 pm
it was probably more so a month ago. i'm not sure it is the case today. while more sanctions are tougher sanctions or gas sanctions might hurt the lack of germany. but i think we've never seen western countries, nato member countries, european countries, and the united states as united as they are today. in fact, if anyone should probably get the credit, it would be someone like the american isn't for being able out of nothing to make an incredible show of unity by the european countries. some of them, as you said, their interest exactly, exactly in antagonizing russia is not living next door to a dangerous russia. but be that as it may, there's a major production unity. and there is more than that. what we have today is natal members making that temporary permanent. so all these security strategic military deployments in eastern europe,
1:37 pm
they are going to have become permanent, if present by them and others in nato today and the next few weeks have their way. this will be a major revival of nato in the east european territory. so unlike at if american it is a you actually quite positive about what's happening here in brussels. so despite all the headlines, how effective do you think these meetings are going to be today? i'm not positive or negative or optimistic or pessimistic in i don't even think in these categories. but be that as it may, i do think that the meeting today has come to project. as you stated unity, they come to up the pressure, whether it's sanctions against russia or arming the, the ukrainian positions. so what we've seen is, is natal members and european members all members of the european union thinking that what they've been done, whether they've been doing so far,
1:38 pm
has worked. and hence they want to do more of it. and as i said, what they're going to do is render it permanent. what i'm hearing less and less of, in fact is talk of diplomacy out of european union out of nato. and out of the g 7, we're not hearing yet. any serious talk about diplomacy. even though the germans sometimes keep in touch with the russians, but in terms of a real effort on the part of the west and the part of the industrialized nations, to connect with russia to bridge, to really try their best to, to bring about a ceasefire in order to pay the way towards real negotiations that we're not seeing coming out of person. the. what about take israel? have you seen it a one and he is rel, i'm in, he's obviously implying a critical part in terms of that diplomacy. that's a very good question. and i would say, i would put it this way. any mediator in such major or conflict would have to be able to provide something to either party. i think in that sense,
1:39 pm
it would be the united states that will be able to provide or give russia lifting the sanctions. and it will be china that will be able to put pressure on russia because of their friendship, the clerks and others could, with some good will pay that way to words, more or more dialogue and more and more ease of the tensions. but a real solution. diplomatic one would have to involve the united states on china. well, it's going to be interesting to see how it all unfold. sanky fear analysis, my wine and a shower out a series senior political analyst lab with us unset, letting announce other world news in the body of gerald corsican. it nationalists figure yvonne colona has been moved to the french island following his death in the hospital earlier. this week, colona had been in a coma after being assaulted by another prisoner. he tax back to violent protests demonstrate his accusing. the government of being responsible. calona was shout
