pavel says he's used to the walking, he's a shepherd, but he loved it. if it says if she has water, we've got 35 kilometers to go. he says he and his wife yanna, a heading to their village, away from the fighting. they hope around a 140000 people have escaped mario pole in the 5 weeks since the start of what russia calls its special military operation. but not every one made it to safety. those that do find themselves in reception centers in russia or schools like this in don, yet that that would usually listenable. why did we come here? because it became too hard. we were exhausted. i took julia who she hasn't been outside at all for a month because she was scared, very scared. and we went on foot a group in a column until we reached the edge of the city and a shooting and bombing, but we made it. thank god. hello. the people al jazeera spoke to said they're here

either because the only route they could find out of mary apple brought them this way or because they relatives in russia. the new snow, which is in the morning. of course i want to go home because i have a flat there. so i went to return to my beloved city where i was born, where my daughter remains and all my friends and relatives, all my life was spent in mary hopper. all you bob went on holiday to mary apple. when she was 18 years old. there she tells us. she fell in love. you got married and has lived for 50 years. it was a perfect city. she says, oh luna meeting lisa and he is it. we must make peace with each other. we learn these words grads, machine, guns, women, children, why do they need to know those words? it is better to learn other words, those of pace love respect towards each other, but not machine guns. when your flight is on fire or the car,

that's not real pain. the real pain is that we're being torn apart. from the reception centers, people will go either to relatives in russia or temporary accommodation that can be hundreds of kilometers away. no one knows when they'll be able to go back home to mario, put on the red cross as, as the russian government for permission to open an office here in raw stop on dawn to service easton, ukraine. we're about a 90 minute drive from the border. an indication perhaps that this won't be a short term conflict. bernard smith, al jazeera roster. honda esco life not a western ukraine alger says rob bright is in love is rob, will the red cross make another attempt to day to bring people out of mary? awful. that's right, i mean the, the i c r c is continuing this process. it's gone on now for days it is a problematic to say the least the i c r c basically say that the conditions

yesterday friday were simply made it impossible for them to proceed. they need to have in place safety guarantees from both of the warring sides. it is only a small contingent. it's only 3 vehicles from the i, c r c a 9 members of stuff, but hugely important because they would lead a convoy of more than 50 buses provided by the ukrainians to get many, many people out of matter. you paul, who be waiting weeks in we know deteriorating conditions to escape. so this convoy does represent refuge and safety for an awful lot of desperate people. meanwhile, ukrainian officials have said that yesterday, friday, around 3000 people managed to get out of matter. you, paul, despite the fact that despite the lack of a cease fire managed to get out by themselves, but many more people obviously still waiting to get out and escape the conditions in that city. i'm mostly just rub on the russian withdrawal or is it from the the

care of region like others have been more attacks? that's right, that have been more attacked, more fighting, obviously, but there have been a according to the ukrainians, are continuing withdrawal of russian units from around kia and these surrounding towns of it, a pin and a hostile mel. and also in the china cave region, this is up near the border with, with russia. the forces have been continuing to withdraw. but according to vladimir zaleski, the ukrainian president, the, the country ukraine should be getting ready embracing itself. he says, for more attacks in the east, it does seem as though russia is now. that's where they're going to be concentrating their forces. the ukranian president telling his people to get ready for that. also accusing the russians as they depart of leaving booby traps and land mines as they leave. and of course, as we have seen and as the ukrainians have accused,

the russians continuing to use artillery and missile attacks as that to cover their withdrawal with civilians getting caught in the way out. there was robert bride reporting live there from the viv in ukraine. many thanks, indeed. rock fighting and ha kish has displaced more than a 3rd of the city's population. many of us left behind have been hiding and makeshift bonn shelters are corresponded. i said, beg, has met some of them. there was a good one. it's pure relief. the bluetooth with a voice they shelled so much last night said but learn i shall go over the shell so much. but we're holding on with you didn't your lawyer this summer they emerged from their shelter and the subterranean existence they have been forced to live because of this war. why is it happened into us? why did he come to us? so spoke which isn't that it's too much for some when you are where you will put

other incoming the shells fold nearby on her phone and be crazy. i guess i'm too late now and you're from state to state. oh, i said, beg, i'll jazeera her, keith, the un peacekeeping mission. and molly says that it's concerned about reports of civilian deaths and an operation carried up by molly and forces. molly's army says that it killed more than 200 fighters last week, when it rated the village of mora in the multi region. thousands were arrested. a large quantities of weapons were confiscated. the un says that it's working with marleen authorities to tackle growing insecurity in the region. still to come here on al jazeera, a showcase of fire power, the u. s. and the philippines,

hold the largest of a joint military drills. ah, it's the weekend and we have some wild weather around that. central mediterranean heavy, one 1st things 1st. let's get you there. right now. rain and wind whipping around so wind warnings in play for natalie sardinia, but also cecily central and southern portions of italy. and then all that rain that was over the balkan says now it started to leak into romania. if you can believe it, we're still talking about snow. so for zurich, about $5.00 to $10.00 centimeters and the energy temperature start to fall saturday into sunday. i think you'll see a dusting of snow as well after the northwest, some shower zipping across ireland and britain, the winds finally start to back off across the low countries paris 8 degrees a few days ago. you're about 2122. so big dropped there. and off to iberia,

most of the rain has shuffled away, but we've got some snow for the parent ease. it's really the other side of the mediterranean, best weather here. sunshine for its stumble, 20 degrees that warmth, also finding its way into georgia and armenia. your yvonne has a height 24 degrees. now here's the situation for egypt, cairo $36.00. that's a temperature we would expect to see in july. lot of storms around the gulf of guinea, especially for free town. and it's a wet pitcher for eastern portions of south africa over the weekend. that trip that susan. ah ah ah,

again, this is al jazeera, that's roger of the main, used to sell a 2 month truces been a breed in yemen, sneer, 80 a war. saudi led coalition to hook the rebels or to store all offensive operations inside yemen and across its borders. attempts to set up humanitarian corridors to allow civilians out of mario full of again failed. but another attempt is to be made later on saturday. authorities in the city say the washing is a blocking access. the u. s. peacekeeping mission. and molly says it's concerned about reported civilian deaths in operation carried off by the countries forces. the army says that it killed hold of 200 fights us last week and a raid, i'm a village in the multi region. ok now to our top story, the sci fi in yelman's wall, col shebra his media advisor for east africa and yemen for little weeks refugee council. he joins us now. live from nairobi. good. have you with us call just how

important is this to month ceasefire in terms of getting aid to people in yemen who need it? oh, we cannot overestimate how overstate how great of a development this is. this is absolutely necessary comes at that moment to yemen was going through a very brutal moment of violence over the last month. since january, january was the deadliest in 7 years, we saw at one person injured or killed every hour throughout january so accurately is absolutely essential. to spare lights, of indians have been the one bearing the bronze of all of this. the agreement also provides for the opening of the board for data and the airport. and so now 2 major important developments that we've been calling for because the closure of those for the airport have i want to talk or slaves?

i myself have met yet many where in dire need for, for engine medical treatment abroad, which they couldn't get in. and because they were in so now are close to the north, they had no way of 70, and they died. many of the people died after we talked because time was against them. we hope this will save more lives that are, that are still trapped in the conflict civilians. and besides the resumption of of, of fuel much need the fuel have been had up and the whole day to down crippling the country. the entire country is dependent on these for the fall there and that's, that has, has meant that hospice is had a few that were more be providing there because of that. no, no, no. and i tricity in our thousands of people few in just

a few of the car. we've seen that every day on the street and the gross. yeah, man. so, and the import of, of commercial goods, food as people are starving, people are dying of starvation. and so the opening of these sports is going to be essential and trying to get them back on their feet. of course, we call on both parties to stick to their commitment. they really need to do on commitments over the next 2 month. and hopefully this will bring forward an opportunity for longer than stability that we will have these yemen use for 72 long that they've been abandoned to their own devices. griffin's main kids may made to sleep hungry at nights, millions of children. that's how they are good still to company. thanks. deed cautionary that in, not having me. so i,

because army has been given sweeping powers to make arrests as protests grow against the countries deepening economic crisis. the state of emergency has been declared to hundreds of people trying to storm the president's residence. when fernandez reports now from colombo, the regulations being brought under the state of emergency which was invoked by the president on friday night. will mean, according to the president, that there is an uninterrupted supply of goods and services. and that's what he said these regulations are about. but the concerning factor is that the authorities will use these emergency regulations that are brought under the public security ordinance to use sweeping powers that they get in terms of public demonstrations, of gatherings of people. and as it is, we've had the opposition expressing the need to resend these regulations, saying that a protest and defend cannot be stifled by invoking these regulations. and we did

see in recent weeks, a huge amount of people coming together in protest. now, a number of brutus warg nice by opposition parties, but unlike before, normal, ordinary she luncheons with no political affiliations are now taken to the street. and this is something that is concerning the president, his residence, just over my shoulder, the road you see down there with a lot of security at the top of it. and this was the sight of a massive demonstration 2 nights ago when people who had a protest down the road marched here, they sort of surrounded the areas and law enforcement authorities had quite a problem on the hand. so lots of people having concern about what these regulations mean in terms of how they would be in force, but people are speaking up and are not going to have their voice as stifled is really forces of shot and killed 3 palestinians in the occupied westbank. it happened in the town of arbor south of south west of jeanine. israel says the men

were armed and open far on the military 11. his release have been killed and separate attacks. in recent days, retail joined amazon is about to get its 1st union to the u. s. workers of the facility and new york of approved to move the company since the vote is a disappoint and that its reviewing its options of zeros. gabriel alesongo reports from new york to the law. we're human and american, his ha, his story victory workers at a massive amazon warehouse in new york. voting to unionize the winning margin more than 500 boats out of nearly 5000 cast. meaning that the $8000.00 strong workforce will become the 1st amazon employees to unionize. in the retail giant 28 year history. with what it sa go, because we want every other industry, every other business to know that dang, sustains. we go on, we go, you know, it's not gonna quit our jobs in more workers who are demanding better pay and

working conditions at the warehouse. where jubilant. many say the ramifications of the unionization push will be felt far beyond the walls of one amazon warehouse. this is a victory, and it's a tide and it's not stopping. and it's going to sweep us all. it means everything i, it means worker power. the potential for working fast revolution is if you can unionize amazon, you can unionize anywhere. it's a remarkable story for the amazon labor organizers, a small independent union that began only last year and set up shop at a bus stop your the warehouse winning against one of the most powerful companies in the world. some belief the pandemic and its impact at amazon has sparked a see change in workers attitudes across the board. people realize how expendable they were to these companies, how little these companies cared about. and workers aren't going back. there's

a new sense that they want something more, they risk their lives for this country that were called essential workers. and workers are going to keep pushing and pushing. and i think this is the beginning of a new era of organizing in a post pandemic period. amazon spent over $4000000.00 to try to defeat the union vote. the company argued on other things that their $15.00 minimum wage is competitive. union leaders here said they've already heard from amazon warehouse workers in over a dozen different locations expressing their desire to unionize as well. while the result at another amazon facility in alabama remains in the balance tension now turns to another new york amazon warehouse due to hold a unionization vote next month with this victory still very fresh in their minds. gabriel's dondo, al jazeera new york, the philippines, and the u. s. a. holding their largest of the joint military exercises. thousands of soldiers from both countries are taking part in the week long drills,

also as travel allen, dog, and reports now from good guy and province. ah, al jazeera is invited on a tour, a showcase of combined us and filipino fire power. here in the northern province of could the young, 550 kilometers from taiwan. a scenario is being played out. the philippine marines are defending the countries coastal waters from imagine to a foreign incursions with the help of american troops. it is the test of combat readiness, entire luck, and that their northern philippine province large scale drills of live far maneuvers and aircraft assaults are held. that is to ensure that the american and philippine military capabilities are synchronized in the event of unarmed attack. this is how barley catan or shoulder to shoulder exercises look,

of course. certainly the objective of what we're doing is demonstrating the strength of the alliance, as well as the commitment to regional security. and that is the purpose of this exercise. the valley cotton is one of the most visible manifestations of the mutual defense treaty, which was signed in 1951. and this year's exercise is proven to be one of its biggest, with nearly $9000.00 soldiers from both countries. with the philippines and china, both cleaning the spread, the islands and beijing, and regional neighbors, also claiming other disputed islands and reefs. tensions have been raised in the region already considered a possible security flash point. some official said the philippine military needs to be pump. it's coastal defense capabilities. if we got of external aggression gushing, the envelope of young villain, an army improve, but

a long sub in the long run and we can't 53 years that we've been doing. oh, what all the for so long. so it's hope i'm not to go to we though it summer unfolding, eventually been ignored and internationally. this year's exercises show how far president rodrigo, the teddy has walked back on his initial promise to scale down u. s. military activities in the country. with growing tensions in the south china sea, both the us and the philippine military see they need to stay alert. and any military that fails to evolve over time will eventually fail to defend its own nation. ah, jamal alan dog and al jazeera, again, province northern philippines. muslims around the world have begun to mark the holy month of ramadan. alderson as john holman, is at damascus gate and the occupied east. jerusalem with more on how ramadan is going to be marked there. you can see it and you can also hear it. this is

a busy time for the damascus gate in the outer reaches of the old city in occupied east jerusalem. and that's because it's the saw of the muslim holy month of ramadan . but usually you'd expect to see as well as the buyers and the sellers quite a significant security presence here, especially because in the last couple of weeks there have been 11 people killed in israel, and the country is actually at its highest alert. you can see that here is actually a relatively low key presence, a couple of the checkpoints that you had through and past the gate. and that's because the country of israel seems to have decided. 3 that it won't help the post a lot of police and soldiers here, that it would just in flame tensions they're allowing reasonably good access. an entry to the people looking to go in, in other parts of the country and this city, there is a different thing. there are more police and there are more soldiers sent out onto the.
