minister, victor or bat has long been an ally of blood and his opponent says that poses a security risk for hunger. so will peter mark is always policy that the when they with al jazeera, for the latest developers, ah, me brush. it says it'll reduce military operations around 2 ukrainian cities, but the u. s. warns moscow may simply be repositioning its forces. ah, i'm not about this, and this is all it is here alive from doe hob. also coming up talks to continue to try to end the conflict about russia's bombing carries on. we're in mac alive when an air strike is killed, 9 people at least 5 die in a shooting near the city of tel aviv. it's the 3rd attack in israel in a week. at

a truce for ramadan, the saudi led coalition announces a month long poles in the war in yemen. or talks between moscow and keith appeared to have made progress in turkey. russia says it'll reduce its military operation near ukraine's capital. it cranium, president vladimir zalinski is cautiously optimistic about tuesdays discussions. but he says he doesn't have much trust in moscow, doc, more than on the lot the, was it the we can say that the signals we hear from the talks are positive, but these signals can silence the explosions of russian shelves. of course, we're seeing all the risks. of course we are not seeing grounds to trust the words coming from representatives of the country that continues fighting to destroy us album. because the more than up green that ukraine supports the talks and will continue the negotiation process to the extent required,

we are counting on the result. we must have real security for us for our country, the sovereignty and our people at russian troops must leave occupy territory solid sovereignty and territorial integrity of ukraine must be guaranteed illicit. or as the seller has more on the negotiations, it may be frail, but there is still hope for peace, russian and ukrainian delegations, math for face to face talks in estoppel. talking with both parties before the meeting, the turkish president stressed the need for an immediate cease fire and better humanitarian conditions. no, no, no artist is in. it'll be in everyone's interest to agree in a ceasefire and a cheap piece as soon as possible. we think you're at a point where the negotiations could yield concrete results. right now you as members of the delegations have a historical responsibility widigar lady before the meeting ukrainian president of will. a demo zalinski signalled his flexibility on the most sensitive issues, including the long contested eastern dom bus region and ukraine's neutral status,

roomy. and with its pledge to significantly decrease military activity in your cave . and in the north of city of chem, his moscow too is showing signs of their willingness to compromise. the decision was taken in the interest of creating mutual trust and the necessary conditions for further talks to take place. although its ambition seems diminished, some of russia's demands remain unchanged. russia wants legal guarantees and infirmity agreement that ukraine will never be a log into nato. and it also wants ukraine to recognise the independence of the 2 russian occupied eastern regions in dawn bus, as well as the russian controlled crime yet, but to achieve its fee that objective of the not sufficing and the minute rising rain. what russia will really like is a regime change in your grave, its sovereignty beyond discussion. ukraine refuses to even consider some of these demands. but this relationship with the west is not one of them. ukrainian

officials have proposed adopting a neutral status only if it comes with security guarantees similar to nato's, which considers an attack on one natal country as an attack on the entire block. the proposal also includes a 15 year consultation period on the status of a russian annex crimea to coming to force on the in the went off a ceasefire. yes, sure. if we manage to consolidate these key provisions, she than ukraine will be in the positions. archie fixed its current status as a non block, a non nuclear state, in the form of permanent neutrality. we will not host foreign military places in our territory, as well as deploy military conventions in our territory. and we will not enter into military political alliances as the force hopefully within a stumble, ukraine's immediate goal remains the same as this fight without delay. and his willingness to compromise for it, but for russia to make peace, it needs to want it. bristol said that al jazeera is stumbles,

or the i secretary of state says he's not optimistic about how the talks are going either. and he blinked and also suggesting that russia's declaration they pull back from keith and shell leave may be an attempt to deflect attention from military losses. i have not seen any anything that suggests that this is moving forward in a, in an effective way. because russia, at least we've not seen signs of real seriousness. but if a, if you crane concludes that, that there is that good and we support that. and so i can't tell you whether these statements reflect some reorientation of the aggression to focus only on only and in quotation marks, eastern and southern ukraine, or whether this is a, a means by which shar, russia once again has some trying to deflect. and to see don bollocks, an open source intelligence analyst, he says that today's developments could point to a change in the wider strategy for russian forces. we're going to have to look at

what the russians, especially those duration team at the moment in spellers do, over the coming days. there are, some indicates is that these troops are being loaded up on the trains, which suggests they're going to be moved a long distance perhaps towards dumbass area. but anytime and so, russian plan is a didn't predict that ukraine would be able to sustain the flights as long as it has done. and rushes, opening moves to attack on such a wide from 4th spread status and without reserves. shows that, and this may be russia attempting to reorient its forces to sustain it in a longer war by concentrating in one particular area and pushing with us. allison strikes had a government building in the collab ripping a hole through the southern port cities beyond a heavy assault for weeks. at least 9 people were killed and 22 were injured. stephanie decker reports. as we arrived in nikolai, as there is panic,

a russian war plain is suspected of being close by. people are told to find immediate shelter. soon after the air raid siren sound, the alarm across the city was looking through said, so when you go shoot, my hands are shaken. i can't eat, i can't drink. i just want to stay. life was the only scene who had skipped miss trunk is my family. i have a small child. i want him to leave under a peaceful sky from here to room. i don't want to live in another country. i want to leave in my muscle and i am ukrainian with bringing it over to someone. michael, i of is the front line in the south west. the last stop on the road to the strategic city of odessa, ukraine's biggest port michel, i ever seen fighting for weeks. but this is strike at the heart of governance here . it used to be the civil administration building, but now in times of war were told it's also being used by the military mirage to

ward your ryan's here this morning. as always 50. there was a strike on this building. will write the offer tragedies and introduce to people pull the life marable to have different levels of injuries or rescue workers are still looking for survivors inside the building. the attack haven't just a couple of hours ago now. the civil administration building severely damage. now mc elia has been fighting back a russian assault, holding background forces for weeks now, but the city has been severely damaged and they are psychological damage to romance. i've got odd, ne, takes us to his flat. he fled to mc alive a few days ago from the russian occupied southern city, of course, on around 60 kilometers from here. so i was them to do so i walked up and was making a coffee. i took the cattle well then the building started to shake. i was confused, crucial. i just started to run around the apartment. then i understood what was

happening. so i started to phone from my window. i saw the smoke dismantled, would have to chill videos up is the moment of impact also caught on a security camera. nikolai has been praised for recently managing to push russian ground forces back. but this is an ever changing frontline. we're told that had been relatively calm here over the last few days, but as always, with war, everything can change in an instant. stephanie decker or 0 in mich alive, southwestern ukraine. rogers about planned to concentrate as far apart in the east has been welcomed by the leaders of the self tickler don. yes, peoples republic, venice bushland says he thinks if russia does alter its focus, they should take ukrainian territory quickly. bernard smith reports from de yeske dennis michelin sees a bright future for don yet, and says it's just around the corner. the head of the self declared people's

republic in east and ukraine says, russia's decision to focus is military campaign. here. means that after 8 years a fighting, they'll quickly capture the just under 50 percent of don bus territory. key f still control was oh through the go down. now all the territory will be liberated with the active support of the russian federation. it means for don bass, a chance to live, to build the economy, that we can talk again, of economic independence for people. it means a chance to build families without being afraid that at any moment a ukrainian missile could fly in and destroy everything. so for now, all the able bodied men of donny exc, or away fighting. don bass has been dependent on russian economic support in the 8 years since don yet can lou ganske broke away from ukraine? the city is quiet, but window shattered by a recent rocket attack that killed 23 people are reminders of the war. the damage is relatively minor compared to the destruction of mario paul. the port

within dawn bass has been flattened and hundreds of thousands of people have fled in the wake of what russia called a special military operation to rid ukraine of what it says are neo nazis. bushland says ukrainian nationalists are to blame for the destruction ah boastful flooding. ah, what, what complicates the liberation of the city is that the rival is hiding behind civilians? are regiments have had to act surgically going street by street house by house liberating quarter by quarter. while also considering there are civilians, as well as infrastructure that we will have to rebuild it. and pushing admits the operation to take control of mario paul is taking too long. the political leadership here believes that with russian firepower concentrated on this region, they can quickly take control of the part of dumbass, the remains in ukrainian hands. but that, of course just pushes the front line further in to ukraine. it's only really a negotiated political solution that will ultimately resolve this crisis. bernard

smith, al jazeera, done yet new satellite images show the scale of the destruction in mario paul. now, june, last year, this is what one and neighborhood of the city looked like. and this is what's left, this image was taken on tuesday. the city's mayor says 90 percent of buildings have been damaged and 40 percent have been destroyed. in the past month, 5 people have been killed in shootings to the really city of televi. please say a gunman opened fire and pedestrians. it's the 3rd attack in a week, or 2 faucets in western whistles with more. ha, the can take off the mouth of a major attack deep inside israel. the 3rd in just a week. this was been a brock, a densely populated, ultra orthodox town east of television, mobile phone footage should what had happened minutes earlier, an attacker on the street to her victims already slept nearby, brandishing

a long barrel. a cyclist narrowly escapes with his life before the government confronts a driver. yet i get him to stop. i've been shooting him at close range. that's not the most. i saw a very difficult situation, a police motorbike that hit a wall and a policeman next to it who were shot. you look, dec. i took over the situation. i checked for gunshot wounds. he'd been injured. is ready, please say, i mean curry, the injured officer who later died was the one who shot the attack. a dead he's be named is dea. am i shake him near janine in the occupied west bank reported to have been working illegally at a construction site in the area of the attack. israel's prime minister natalie bennett, convened an emergency security meeting and worn of a new wave of terror. they've got the border, this is a great and complex challenge for the army, the security agency, and the police that requires the security establishment to be creative. and for us to adapt ourselves to the new threat and read the tell tale sign the loan

individual. sometimes without organizational affiliation, and to be in control on the ground. last tuesday in the southern city of basheba, a resident of a nearby bedouin town killed 4 people in a car ramming and stopping attack before himself being shot dead and is really called previously convicted. him on charges of supporting iso on sunday to palestinian israelis opened fire on a street in how dare and not a television killing to security forces. members, before they too were shot dead again, israeli authorities pointed to i saw ideology that attack was followed by arrest in their home town, part of a heightened response, including more use of detention without charge surveillance and police and military reinforcements. the theory is that this chain of attacks could inspire get more in an already combustible period from gaza. hamas and palestinian islamic jihad have hailed this latest shooting as they had the previous attacks. in recent days, the policy in president muffled us condemned the killing of civilians and warned the risks of a further deterioration. instability, those fears

a certainly shared by an israeli government. now dealing with the deadliest week of attacks on citizens in many years hurry for. so i'll just 0 west harrison still had analogies in the u. s. president signs new legislation making lynching a federal hate crime more than a century off. the law was 1st proposed ah wednesday, march the 30th. here's your headlines for the americas here for one. great to see we do have some severe thunderstorms bubbling up, not too far away from the river plate region pushing into the southeast of brazil. biggest threats with these storms will be hail and some pretty powerful winds as wall steady feet of rain for the northern coast of brazil is going to be intense at times. dark of the color, the more intense the rain is falling. and for central america,

negotiations with ukraine, but the pentagon says moscow might be repositioning its forces. a russian strike has hit a government building in mid july of ripping a hole through it. at least 9 people have been killed and 22 have been wounded. the southern port cities been under heavy assault for weeks. 5 people have been killed as shootings near the israeli city of tel aviv. please say a gunman opened fire pedestrians. it's the 3rd deadly attack to happen in his job within the past week. sorry, like coalition says it'll hold military operations in yemen for the holy month of ramadan. the movies reportedly meant to create a positive atmosphere during ramadan to help negotiations between yamini factions, yelman's, who the rebels announced a 3 day cease fire earlier on tuesday, but they declined to attend the talks. will analynn shine. is a research fellow at the middle east program with the quincy institute. she's joining us live from washington, dc. fires in very good to have you with us ma'am. thank you very much. indeed. what

are the chances that this cease fire or any sees fire at the moment could hold? for those have made it clear that the saudis need to do is lift their blockade on yemen. and so while the saudis have declared their own cease fire in response to the truth, the cease fire, which is encouraging would probably shouldn't take it really seriously unless the saudis do live the blockade and allow food and fuel to get into yemen, which there's been essentially no fuel has gotten in for all of this year so far they. we just mentioned that the, the who the rebels are declining to attend talks in a moment to deal with this. so the responsibility does live with the hoop is as well doesn't it? because the so if they're not prepared to, to attend the talks and there's really not a great deal that can be achieved. anyways, the well, the hood is made clear when the talks were announced that they were not interested

in having his talks held by one of the aggressor states that they would be willing to engage with a neutral party. and both kuwait and online in the past have successfully served as mediators to the conflict because the saudis insisted that the talks needed to happen in riyadh. though these had made clear that this was not going to work for them. another thing to keep in mind is that a lot of the many actors that are currently needing in riyadh aren't actually based in yemen. many of them are based in saudi arabia. and so it's unclear that, i mean, from my perspective, i think the saudis are trying to recapture the narrative of themselves as the seeking piece and the who uses the aggressors. but when the who is brought forward, their own unilateral cease fire, that sort of threw off the narrative. they're both the saudis and the americans have been pushing for a while. now. one thing, i'm not entirely clear on maybe you can help me decide is that the study coalition

is saying that they are prepared to to instigate the cease fire. but presumably that relates to forces that are directly responsible to those involved in the coalition. what about forces, for example, like the giant's brigade, which is sponsored by the u e, but which, who are actually yeah, many fighters who are pro separatist, does it relate to them? it's not clear yet, you know, we know that saudi and immorality objectives are not quite the same in yemen. we know that the m rockies are particularly interested in supporting the southern separatists and also in holding certain key ports of yemen. partly them moratti's are interested in maintaining control of the bible men that straight at the bottom of the red sea. where's the saudis are much more concerned about the hoodies and the assistance that they get from iran. and they don't like the idea of any sort of future government where the, who these might might be in control and the saudis fear could continue to threaten

them. so it's unclear that the m moratti's or are necessarily party to what the saudis have declared. we know that the saudis and iraqis have had previously sometimes worked at cross purposes. but as we saw in january with brigades, we're working closely with the saudi forces. that they seemed that the u. e. m. saudi arabia were back on the same page as far as waging the war against the who is . this isn't the 1st time that this is far, has been put forward by, by either side, particularly when it comes to, to, to ramadan. how's it worked in the past is a given the situation that we're seeing at the moment, is there any sort of room for maneuver on either side that with the lows some sort of even tentative seats far for the holy month to come into effect. i certainly hope so, and the fact that we have seen both the who is and the saudis declaring their,

their own cease fires, is unfortunately, i think we seem to have lost our food to an anal shalayna, but we are grateful to her for joining us on al jazeera, thank you very much. indeed. yes, president joe biden signed into law a bill that makes lynching a federal hit crime punishable with 30 years in prison. the anti lynching act is named after emmett till, a 14 year old boy who was kidnapped, beating and murdered in 1955 for allegedly floating with a white woman. the murder drew national attention to violence perpetrated against black americans. advocates say they've been trying to pass federal anti lynching legislation of more than a century. the m b carther is a political science professor at howard university in washington, dc. she says the emmett till law helps us from the equality of all people in the eyes of the u. s. justice system. because it does affirm that very notion that

black lives matter, and i think that's something we've yet to see this country really sort of liver to these last few years. and i think it's been important for stare to making that mat, just a moment of policy in this domain, but perhaps lead over into other domain like voting rights in housing equity in other places where we see minority communities falling behind in this country. or the us plans to begin offering a 2nd covered one thing booster for people who are 50 years and older. the food and drug administration also authorized an extra dose of the pfizer on madonna vaccine for younger people who have compromised immune systems. the f d. a says those who are eligible and get the booster if it's been at least 4 months since their last vaccination. political instability and climbing crime rates have drawn protesters on to the streets across haiti. rising cost of everything from food to fuel is a major concern in the car to be a nation with millions struggling,

teresa boat reports for the last 3 months. this type of civil unrest has become the norm as demons tweeters, protest, ongoing kidnappings and violence, as well as mostly stagnant wages in the face of sewing inflation. protesters in puerto prince, a life is becoming unattainable and they're demanding than government officials do more. to address the problems facing them on a daily basis. traitors can't take to the streets. our children can't go to school because of the kidnapping and crime. rising costs and inflation are only making things worse for us. everything from food to fuel is getting more expensive. bakery that make the bread mo stations rely on every day, could soon be forced to shut down, due to supply shortages and rising costs that we're back to look to warn ukraine has hurt us a lot because imported flower play such an important role and has made it difficult

to get leading to haiti. that's why it's so expensive for us, even if we can't afford it. haiti imports 70 percent of his food and un estimates that nearly half of the population is an urgent need of assistance. many of the medical workers went on strike earlier this month, over security concerns are refusing to return to work until their wages are increased, resolving public, it, we're aware that we're not supposed to hold the strike for this long, but it's not our fault. we've tried talking to the government, but they tell us they're not able to increase our wages. haiti's most valuable are the ones paying the highest cost as they are no doctors oh nurses to attend to their needs. there were 8 patients here with me. 5 already left the hospital with infections because they couldn't find a doctor. we are asking the government to solve the problems of the strikers because we cannot suffer too much any more than political paralysis in haiti has

only gotten worse since the july. a fascination of former presidential in and maurice no date has. he had been set for new elections. and the acting prime minister says the 1st step is to hold a constitutional referendum. tuesday, protests, march the 35th anniversary of hades, current constitution, and organizer, se he will continue to apply pressure until those in charge of move forward with a change the country so desperately needs base. i will, i'll the cedar el salvador presidents threatened to increase punishments for hundreds of imprisoned gang members because gang violence is surgeon or latin america editor policy in human reports. in this sense, salvador prison, a humiliating spectacle, forced on hundreds of gang members who are now inmates their head shaven and forced to run half naked before the cameras. these men are getting a taste of what their president warns could be even worse treatment. more than

a 1000 members of were arguably the was deadliest rival gangs were captured. 24 hours after president naive bo gilly ordered a state of emergency. it followed a wave of gang murders had left at least 60 people dead in a single day on saturday. the measure suspended the right to assembly privacy of communications. the need for an arrest warrant and the right to legal counsel. but that's not all. that president has sent the country's $70000.00 gang members, a tweet, stop the killings he says, or the prisoners will pay the price. conduct human rights watch tells al jazeera book. kelly is in fact mimicking the conduct of drug traffickers. what he is implementing in, in, in a sailor is typical and tactic so far uh, with mafia state where you take revenge against

as a member. so the family that is so obvious. nice, not the way in a country whether east rule of law, the former director of the inter american human rights commission follow abdel calls the president's actions penal populism by countering barbarism with barbarism . but peculiar is unapologetic, accusing the international organizations that sponsored a truce between the salvatore's warren gangs from 2012 for allowing them to accumulate resources, money. and what degree, gillis says the gang members will get limited food and have had their mattresses confiscated and that they will quote, not see the light of day. also be confined to their selves indefinitely. except of course, for these exhibitions designed to make it clear that he means business to see in human al jazeera nigeria security force as a hunting for gunman who attacked

a passenger train around a 1000. people were on board traveling from the capital of boucher to kaduna. and the north of the country, witnesses say some were killed, injured or kidnapped by the attackers. no localized bandits. kaduna airport was also attacked a few days ago. ah, this is al jazeera, these are the top stories of russia says it's going to reduce its military activity and northern ukraine, including near the capital keys. the announcement followed the latest round of negotiations with ukraine greens president vladimir lensky is cautiously optimistic, but he has expressed little trust in moscow. talk more than as the body was it the we can say that the signals we hear from the talks are positive, but these signals can silence the explosions of russian shelves. of course, we're seeing all the risks. of course we are not seeing grounds to truck.
