8:09 am
31st. a day after russians pulled out in it. there is no mention of dead civilians . from the very beginning, it has been clear that this sir, is nothing else but yet another stage pro occasion aimed at discrediting am dixon, realizing of the russian military and leveling, political rational pressure on russia. his claims, however, were seemingly undermined by a new york times analysis of satellite images said to show the bodies present before russian troops withdrew. ukraine has again called for an independent investigation. this is why myself and my fellow parliamentarians, we did everything possible and impossible to get international journalists to woodshop and the 1st day of liberation. so it would be not to us saying what happened there, but it will be representatives of all the media, all over the world. respectable journalists, war journalists,
8:10 am
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 terrace and the high commissioner for human rights michelle bachelor, have each called for independent investigations to terrace will address the security council on tuesday as well. ukrainian president vladimir zalinski kristin salumi al jazeera, the united nations. well, yes, president joe biden says there is ample evidence of atrocities committed by russia . he wants president vladimir putin to be tried for war crimes, bicycle hang reports from washington, where, cuz we're really through, i'm with you as president joe biden had called russian president vladimir putin, a war criminal. now he's taking it a step further. so what happened?

8:12 am
shocking, but unfortunately, they're not surprising. we released information even before rushes invasion showing that russia would engage in acts of brutality against civilians. russia has denied the allegations, but at the pentagon, express in 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 in boucher president. mind says 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. we want a total embargo, a russians shipping, and they want to completely end the sale of russian oil, gas and coal. now that last part has divided the alliance, the bind administration will likely be working behind the scenes to try and figure out if these horrible revelations have changed. the political calculus, pat coin al jazeera, washington for short break here now to 0. when we come back,

8:14 am
degrees, well above the average. by thursday for the wet and windy weather we have to look to the north west. places like coastal areas of morocco, but by wednesday that does start to shift further east into coastal areas of algeria. now further south, the drought conditions persist for the horn of africa. it's across places like zambia and bob, we are within the heavy rains and for south africa we have seen some severe weather warnings, but those will ease. by the time we go into wednesday, with lots of sunshine coming back into eastern areas, johannesburg, seeing the temperature at $23.00 degrees with clear skies. that sure weather update . ah. on counting the cost with europe facing the thread of a gasp, lea skin africa fill the gap, the ukraine will bottles, the global economy, power, countries,

war. crimes and boots are saying it was all staged in the benzine says moscow would provide evidence to the security council on tuesday. and he was president, your body says does ample evidence and atrocities by russia he wants to know who to be tried for more crimes. but johnny, city of shanghai would remain locked down as authority, has reviewed the results of a drive to test all 26000000 residents for cobit 19. a 2 stage lockdown began last week to combat the latest wave. but authorities of come under fire for separating cobra positive children from their parents and sending them to quarantined facilities. adrian brown has more from hong kong. i think the chinese government is it missing that this policy is in existence and the fact that it is suggest for me that this figure is not in cynical single digits. it's probably a lot higher than that. this has caused, you know, a lot of unease for parents in shanghai. remember shang, i has one of the biggest international communities in china. so this is worrying
8:17 am
also for foreign parents. there's plenty of anecdotal evidence, both online and elsewhere, to demonstrate just how unsettled people are. we know that parents and children have been separated. we know also that the chinese government is going to persist with this policy. it says that where a parent and a child have been infected, they can isolate together, but it say the parent has been infected and the child hasn't, than they have to be separated. now, foreign diplomats in shanghai have been contacting the foreign ministry in beijing to express their alarm. they want sat there to be some sort of exemption for diplomatic staff and the children of diplomatic staff to be able to isolate at home . but it does seem that china is determined to maintain this particular strategy. protest as in shall anchor, have returned in the streets to denounce the government's handling of the economic

8:19 am
that have announced that they will step aside from the government and also sit as independence. so quite a lot of. 2 mile, given that the government needs to ensure it's our majority in parliament at the moment it's, they're still quite comfortable. but as we have heard, almost 26 parliamentarians leaving that number and the proceedings today. obviously, we just had a new or what the government called was a temporary to cabinet sworn in with just for subject ministers of and that happened yesterday. so you just have a full member, temporary cabinet until such time that a more permanent cabinet is held. now, bear in mind that there are lots of protest still continuing around the country, particularly here in the capitol colombo and there have been sort of indications that protested might target the parliament in terms of our surrounding the parliament or coming to parliament to express their views. we did here earlier on
