5:07 am
we did everything wonderful and impossible to get international journalists to woodshop and there for his date of liberation. so it would be not to us saying what happened there, but it will be representatives off all the media, all over the world. respectable journalists, war journalists, who seen things and who would say what they have seen in boucher. meanwhile, the u. s. ambassador called russia's presence on the human rights council, a farce, and said she would introduce a resolution to the general assembly to suspend them. un officials have called the images from gucci. shocking and horrifying. secretary general antonio, the terrorist and the high commissioner for human rights, michel boshoway, had each called for independent investigations to terrorist will address the security council on tuesday as well. ukrainian president for a lot of mirrors the landscape. kristen for me, al jazeera, the united nation, french president among macro, and this says there are very clear signs that war crimes has been committed in

5:09 am
war machine that has to stop. and this is where europe's response gets tonia and recriminations get bitter. listen to poland. prime minister. find your president, your micro as the president macro. how many times have you negotiated with putin? what have you achieved or have you stopped any of these actions that took place? and mr. more of it, ski attacks, germany's long standing business and energy ties with putin's russia. chevron was g shy. we have to speak out here and now condemn it. admit that it was the wrong policy because we are dealing with terrible crimes with the crime of genocide and the 21st century. germany is still not doing well. poland and the baltic states wanted to immediately stop buying russian gas. we have to put more pressure on food and we have to to isolate washy to to cuts all it could

5:15 am
a bit of a wintry and wet weather system in the west, but that is going to ease by the time we get into wednesday. but how to look at that, the temperature dips down invasion by about 10 degrees as the winds changed as cooler winds, knocking a lot of the warmth weights, mix of cloud and clear skies this we can be there will be some sunshine on thursday and the warmth will be back now, things are going to improve across japan as well. we'll see temperatures edge up into the early twenty's in tokyo. a lot of warmth here, and it's a similar story for south asia heats. in fact, those scorching temperatures, continuing to climb, not just northern, but in central areas, and it's going to be roger done that sees a lot of that heat. by the time we get into wednesday for any relief, we have to look to the south. we have some coastal showers kicking in. i saw official ally of the journey on the bombardment, mtv and odessa, the missile and see it on the road. al jazeera ukrainians,
5:16 am
determined to stay. they will not surrender, just like that to fight. don't you shoot had a train you 2 days ago, the show me how that works and to defend the barricades. and you documentary shows the ukrainian witnesses tool from the front lines dispatch and defiance voices from ukraine on al jazeera. ah ah, you're watching al jazeera, a reminder now of our top stories. this allen, ukraine's president for the may zalinski has cold on the international community to hold rushes that he met hooted, responsible for war crimes. made the comments on
5:17 am
a visit to the town of boucher but russian forces have been accused of killing civilians. the russian ambassador to the united nations has denied claims of crimes in boucher saying it was all staged asleep then. sa says moscow will provide evidence to security council on tuesday. french present manual ma chrome says that there are very clear signs that will crimes have been committed in boucher and has responded bike spinning, several russian diplomats. that use foreign policy chief says the block is working on additional sanctions. will u. s. president joe biden says there's ample evidence of atrocities by russia. he wants to plot map who tend to be tried for war crimes particle hang reports from washington. now, where can you really throw you as president joe biden had called russian president vladimir putin, a war criminal? now he's taking it a step further. so it happened. this war is a war,
5:18 am
but we have to gather the probation. we have the can you to provide you great with both weapons ab, thank you the fight and we have the gather all the detail. so this is the actual have a war car broil. this guy is brutal. what's happening to book it outrageous and every one fee and the american people are seen it. the u. s. media tends to be very conservative when it comes to broadcasting human remains calling not now. we're starting to see very disturbing images of the death that they have left behind. and we warn you, they are graphic. what they have left behind is sickening, and we should warn you so that some of the images of the scene are disturbing and are warning. some of the images in this report may be disturbing. the will says it will help investigate in order to document what happened here and who is responsible adding. they believe this was always part of the plan. the images that
5:19 am
we see are tragic. their shocking. but unfortunately, they're not surprising. we released information even before russia's invasion, showing that russia would engage in acts of brutality against civilians. russia has denied the allegations, but at the pentagon, expressing little doubt that they did it. i think it's fairly obvious not just to us, but to the world that russian forces are responsible for the atrocities and in boucher president minds as there will be additional sanctions this week. he didn't go into detail, but what the ukrainians want is for every russian bank to be cut off from the swift communication system. they want a total embargo of russian shipping. and they want to completely end the sale of russian oil, gas and coal. now that last part has divided the alliance, the byte administration will likely be working behind the scenes to try and figure out if these horrible revelations have changed. the political calculus paddock line al jazeera washington. the chinese city of shanghai will remain locked down as
5:20 am
authorities review the results of a drive to test all 26000000 residence. because with 19 a 2 stage locked down began last week to combat the latest wave. when authorities have come under fire for separating covey, positive children from their parents, and sending them to quarantine facilities or from all that. so i speak with adrian brown in hong kong. so agent doing no as yet how many children were actually separated from their parents as part of his initial policy. oh, carry. we know the figure is not single digits. i've been looking at some video on social media in the last hour or so. ready showing children and parents arriving at what seems to be an isolation facility. and the gist of a story is this, that china is now creating special isolation units so that children and parents
5:21 am
don't have to be separate now as, as i, i can't verify any of that. but i think that video is a direct response to some of the negative reports that have been coming out of shanghai during the past 24 hours for a parent in that city in the moment that vast metropolis, it is a very worrying time because china is not denying that children have been separated from the parents and indeed has been defending that policy saying that it's needed . in order to, you know, us try to suppress this virus from spreading. i mean, for china's government, you know, shanghai is simply too big to fail. but if you are a parent, a very, very unsettling time. now, a number of foreign embassies have written to the chinese foreign ministry, demanding, requesting that diplomatic children be given an exemption. they say that a diplomatic st off all that children become infected, they should be able to isolate at home. but at the moment it seems that china is
5:22 am
slightly relaxing its policy by saying, okay, we will allow infected parents and children to isolate together. but it's not clear whether that is widespread or whether it's simply an isolated case. okay, adrian brown will leave it there in hong kong. thank you. now landmark un reports on climate change says there must be rapid, deep and immediate cuts in carbon dioxide emissions to prevent a comment to catastrophe where the report was put together by the intergovernmental panel on climate change. it says the earth is on track to exceed an average global temperature rise of $1.00 degrees celsius this century, beyond which the catastrophic effects of climate change like floods, droughts, and super storms will get worse. the panel says greenhouse gas emissions need to be reduced by 43 percent and methane by about a 3rd by 2030. the judy is reached the verdict,
5:23 am
and it is damaging. these reports of the intergovernmental panel on climate change is a litany of broken climate promises. it is a file of shame, cataloging the empty pledges that put us firmly on track towards and and livable worlds. we are on a fast track to climate disasters. having won the 4th consecutive landslide election, victory, hungary prime minister, victor autobahn, is expected to toughen his pro russian stones and the you. he's when came despite opposition efforts to unite against him under simmons has more from budapest, i think, to albany, has a landslide when and a 4th term in power. he believes he's defied the combined forces of western powers. the new and other institutions who he says all conspired against him. we
5:24 am
have to ask the lord how it happened that we won the biggest victory when everyone joined forces against us at home. he has a mandate to continue defiance against the you and may well engage in more authoritarian policies. but internationally, he faces further isolation. he claims to be neutral, one, the ukraine conflict. yet in his victory speech, his list of opponents not only included what he called brussels bureaucrats, but ukraine's president of a lot of mir zalinski too. and he refuses any military aid to ukraine, which conflicts with the policy of many, e, you and nato members that include neighbor and former close ally, poland. that's led to a breakdown in their relations. the main question for victorian will be how to restructure this alliance or recreate the alliance with poland, how to please poland, and how to come out of this kind of isolation that i think is unprecedented in
5:25 am
hungary, history on all bands relationship with russia, his friendship with vladimir putin is expected to be on eyes for the foreseeable future. and there's more controversy now about another issue with russia. early days before the elections, a cyber space espionage scandal broke out. hackers said to be linked to russian intelligence agencies are reported to have accessed all computer systems of hunger is foreign ministry. and they're also said to have accessed encrypted channels that sometimes transmit information from nato and the european union. the report relates to documents acquired by the direct 36 online publisher. it's editor says the article reveals the hacking was going on for 10 years, right up to and including the start of russia's war in ukraine. reporting suggests that he has hungry was used as a kind of like a back door and they wanted to have access to you and natal documentations probably
5:26 am
. that's why the, the one of the targets was the foreign ministry. the report has been dismissed by the government as election campaign lies. but if true, it's not a hacking that surprising. it's the fact that there was no clamp down or any apparent protest by the foreign minister, peter seattle, who received the order of friendship western anxiety about all back. and his relationship with putin isn't going away. and perhaps it's telling me that among the 1st of action congratulates re messages to the hungarian prime minister was from the russian president, andrew simmons, al jazeera, budapest. there is anger in peru over the rising cost of living. in the past few days, protests have tons violent. at least 5 people have been killed. the government is now trying to win over some of the demonstrators as marianna sanchez reports from the capital lima. the protesters clashed with royal
5:27 am
police and several cities around the country, burning tires, looting locking highways. the rising cost of living is affecting many peruvians, rocketing fuel prices have directly impacted the basic food basket. people are blaming it on precedent book us to use policy. when we have supported him and how is he paying back? he's raising the price of sugar flower. when is it been like this? our children are hungry, there is no work and we want a solution. the farmers blocked the pen american highway to protest against the threefold increase in fertilizer prices. the government says, fertilizers, fuel and grains imports from russia and ukraine have shut up because of the war. last week, just in your anger, protest are staying there will be paid to protest. farmers and truckers responded by blocking the crucial central highway, which is the main put supply line for the capitals that in turn, cars,
5:28 am
food shortages, the president has forgotten the people. everything is expensive. he should put on his spence and double and if not, he should go back to his home. government officials struck a deal on saturday with one faction of protesters. they imposed a 5 day deadline to address their demands. and on sunday, another deal with truckers. but that didn't piece people now, rallying nationwide, thousands of job loss to the pandemic have all confused discontent, or given me most of the people already against the war comically and casea produced a revolution of expectations. just under normal circumstances and sion would have produced these effects later on. but the pandemic worked as an accelerator in the face of nationwide protest. the government is to thank you by social tranquillity with money, if the ways the minimum wage and we do some taxes on fuel. but another thing that
5:29 am
may not be the solution and only seek us to use populace measures could eventually bring some piece. but they say a major crisis looms ahead for the precedent. last week, gasdio survived a 2nd round of impeachment proceedings after 9 months in office spearheaded by his political foes in congress. but now it is the people who 1st supported him who are demanding him to fulfill his promises. or li medina such as i just see that the method of the richest person in the world has taken a major stake in twitter, sending the social media platforms stalk soaring. multi billionaire alone musk bought shares with nearly $3000000000.00, making him the top shareholder. tesla c o has been critical of social media companies and a recent post he questioned a twitters adherents to free speech and hinted that launching his own platform.
