as illegal and politically motivated. kristen salumi has more from the un as atrocities in ukraine mount. the country's ambassador appealed to the general assembly to hold russia accountable and suspend them from the geneva based human rights council. all you need to do is to press the yes button and to save the human rights cancel and many lives around the world. and in ukraine . on the other hand, pressing no mean spooling a trigger. russia denying all wrong doing accused the west of double standards. at the public. good sir shaw thought i need what we're seeing today's an attempt by the united states to maintain its dominant position and total control to continue its attempt at human rights. colonialism in international relations in russia. lobbied hard, convincing china to vote against suspension. jeez,

i lin dog hutchison, though such a hasty move at the general assembly which forces countries the 2 sides will aggravate the division among member states, intensify the confrontation between the parties concerned or how it is like adding fuel to the fire in the n 23 country sided with russia, 93 voted in favor of suspension. but india, brazil, in south africa, were among 58 countries that abstained saying an investigation should be concluded . first. mexico also abstained. i figured create more polarization, a country that supported previous resolutions deploring russia's aggression, mexico east, in favor of everything that will keep inclusion and dialogue on the table. still the u. s. ambassador, who initiated the vote, is that held the decision as a victory to day. the international community took one collective step in the right direction. we insured our persistent and agrees is human rights violator will not

be allowed to occupy a position of leadership on the human, on human rights at the un. the 47 member human rights council launched an investigation into possible war crimes in ukraine, while russia was still a member over russia's objections. now it will release its findings without russia who, after becoming only the 2nd country to be suspended from the council, announced it was quitting. kristin salumi al jazeera, the united nations. though the world health organization has verified 100 attacks by russia on health facilities in ukraine since the conflict started. as of the bank reports now from ukraine, 2nd city of car keys, hospitals are particularly vulnerable from heavy bombardment. born in the basement, to the sound of artillery above one day old maia is yet to feel the warmth of the sun on her face. get on with the show. i wish were peaceful future for her.

all the rest is just details are as a courtesy for the maya is a child of this war, a victim of it tucked away underground somewhere in her cave in her mother's arms away from the heart of russian artillery for both of them because i didn't know for her, for that that fits of the worst memory of these days is fine in pregnant to the cellar and hiding from the plain the scariest. most of them this hospital was hit. 3 out of the 7 wards have been damaged. and now they live in fear of another attack. the reality is we can't even name this hospital. these expectant mothers are hidden away behind a bomb proof door. they have their supplies right here. and these are the conditions. these women are giving birth under through the narrow corridor. we find more women. well, you will call her carina,

which means strong. nobody expected this. it was quiet in the basement warm and cozy, but it's mentally difficult because i want to be back home to be with my family to see a peaceful sky. love. there's not much space to move. simple, dark and dull. the war takes its toll and mothers. while some have the warmth of their mother's bodies, others struggle alicia zera now because of the stress of the war, the mother gave birth prematurely. the child has problems with her lungs and has to have the support to receive oxygen and has to be fed by a tube. it's not only the newborns who struggle watching the land with it. i thought as if we need ventilators. we need them all by x fe here. the x ray and ultrasound are on the side of the hospital that was hit by shelley. we also need a diesel generator for their power shortages,

the ventilator stop working when the electricity cuts out. but there's hope and a message to the world pierced honestly, i hope that we will have a future that our kids will have a future and a peaceful sky overhead. this is the most important for all to be safe and sound. and do you want to see sampson maya? see a peaceful sky. i said, beg, i'll dedira kirk, even though the worst is impose more sanctions on russia in a bit to reduce europe dependency on the russian energy sector. the u has agreed to been coal. now this is the 5th round of sanctions on the kremlin over its invasion of ukraine, with a group of $27.00 nations was unable to agree on suitable sanctions on oil and gas impulse which are moscow's biggest earners. now the u. s. is also adding restrictive measures on moscow. the senate back legislation to ban energy imports from russia. congress also voted to suspend normal trade relations of russia and

allied bela roost. now that decision allows for high a terrorists on imports from the 2 countries. both measures will be sent to the white town for president biden, to sign into law nato members of pledge to send more weapons to ukraine to help win the war against russia. ukraine, not a member of the military lines, but it's foreign minister was in brussels, asking football support. they to expect russia to start to major offensive in southern am, eastern ukraine within weeks, allies are providing a wide range of different reference systems, both. so with arrow systems but also mod done equipment. and i think that this distinction between offensive and defensive is a bit strange, because we speak about providing weapons to account, which is the funding itself on the self defense is arrive to which is enshrined in the you and shorter. so everything ukraine, thus,

with the support from the dollars is defensive. all still had here on al jazeera. ah, laura candidate melinda pen and a giant support is not her final campaign rally as friends prepared to head to the polls. and we look at how the k with 19 pandemic says new lines on the nursing shortage crisis in the u. s. one, many of them on leaving the profession. those stories after the break. ah, the journey has begun. the faithful world copies on its way to catholic book your travel package today. it's warming up quite nicely and central and southern chinese temperatures around about 6 degrees above the average. although it snowed recently in the forecast, at least in the old post. hum,

should ha card attempts to the rising here now, and it's sunshine in the skies. you see the snow a long way north. there is 27 in beijing. so attempts to rapidly rising throughout . charlie was largely sunny environment just below the rain for me. and you know and tried to stretch slowly eastwards, but nicely spring weather out for the big rains. these are seasonal rains on a good arc that goes to the central philippines. proper circulation here, another one not far away from graham. these are potentially damaging certain that we floods from the thunderstorms that surround these circulations and as rain creeping up now into southern india after a few dry days and insur lanka, and still some big shows up in the northeast. that was a warning out for a sam next year, so these shall get particularly violent. but the rather more widespread major warning is that of heat. and he's been around the roger stand for a day or 2 stretching to major pre dash temperatures into the low, middle, 40 little bit earlier in the you might like, hence the prompting of a heat wave warning. it's also getting hot again in parts of the middle east,

particularly i'm thinking of counter approaching for i saw airway official airline of the journey. it's the largest war in europe since world war 2. is president putin reclaiming what belong to russia? was natal coming to close? and what does the end game look like? an in depth look at the war in ukraine. hooton's bland, or the west neglect. you cream the seats all on it just either. ah ah,

welcome back. you're watching. i'll just there with me to hell robin in doha, reminder of all top news stories, at least, also ukraine's president as described, the killings of the town of bog road younger as significantly more dreadful than boucher for at least 300 people died. wayne 93 countries back the suspension with 24 opposed. 58 abstained. moscow says the boat is politically motivated. now the us says one step closer to having its 1st black woman on the supreme court . the senate has confirmed contention brown jackson to serve as justice on the country's top court. hi de jo. castro reports now from capitol hill. this was the moment when american history was made on this vote. the age of 53. the naser 47 and the nomination has confirmed, ah, when the nations 1st black female vice president announced the confirmation of the

1st black woman to the u. s. supreme court never, never has a black woman held the title of justice village pershing. and i wish you the very best, the remaining senate republicans voted no some voicing concern over jackson's work representing guantanamo bay detainees when she served as a federal public defender. others accused her of being a tool for the political left. i believe she will prove to be shown during her confirmation hearing. i interpret and apply the lot to the facts of the case before me, without fear or favor. consistent with my judicial oath, jackson has nearly a decade of experience on the federal bench. she's the daughter of public school teachers, and also served on the federal sentencing commission. she joined president joe biden to watch the confirmation vote from the white house. jackson will replace the moderate liberal justice stephen briar when he retires in july,

leaving the supreme court's conservative super majority unchanged. that is very unlikely that justice jackson will be able to convince a conservative justice to cross party lines and vote with the liberal justice is on the controversial issues. but jackson's confirmation is a symbolic. when for democrats and the biden administration at age 51, she will likely have decades to sit on the u. s. supreme court. and had he, jo castro, al jazeera washington focused on supreme court, has ruled that prime minister in wrong cause, moved to dissolve parliament and cold for early elections. was a legal political workers from the people's party took to the streets of karate office. this is in 1st time to 75 years of pakistan's constitutional history. this was the civilian co attempt. we've always dealt and

fought. and this was the 1st time under the leadership of the opposition leaders. a democratic tool was used to dislodge a selected government which came through of a manipulated election. and today we were going to have a strengthening of democracy. and as for his article 6 application is concerned. i think once the full reason to judgement comes and the new federal government comes in place, they will, they will have all the credible evidence who are all the perpetrators and the characters in the, you know, it's a virgin and violation of the constitution. a pass stations court fi in puerto rico, leaving a 3rd of the population in darkness. more than a 1000000 people in the u. s. territory had no electricity on thursday morning. people spent the night at gas stations getting gasoline for backup generators, causing some stations to run out of fuel. well, kenneth macklin talk her serve both as puerto rico, lieutenant governor, and secretary of state jones been alive via skype. from puerto ricans, capital son,

one could help you with sir on the program, in your opinion, what seems to have gone wrong this time? well, the fine, there was a minor fire at a yard in front of the, a, one of the power generators. now we've had since 942 a unitary ah, well, we're, everything is connected. so if anything goes wrong, it can trigger a cascade of events that will shut down the system to protect the system. or we have to move to micro grid. we have to move to renewable energy, but we haven't done it yet. i mean, is this all about of failing or out of date infrastructure as well that needs further investment? or is it all about sort of trying to recover from previous hurricane damages of not so long ago? yeah. you know, we had, we have maria, almost 5 years ago. the federal government has assigned around $10000000000.00 so

that we can reduce the power, the power system that has not been done yet. and there is a debate as well. they should basically reconstruct what we have and continue burning coal, oil, diesel, natural gas, or whether we should be redesigning the system. so that we can go towards renewable energies and reached the goal of 100 percent renewable energy by the year 2015. that is the alternative that i personally support. of course, while the debate is happening, amongst politicians, this is going to cause frustration amongst the public who pay for some of the most expensive electricity twice as much i believe, than that of those on the us mainland. they're not going to be happy. are they? yes, again, with another power outage o w, and we're having these big power outages like every 3 or 4 years. it's true that

the, the, the one that was in 2013 last 3 days. this one is probably going to last day or day and a half. we already have one 3rd of the power clients already was electricity. i'm one of them. and we will get the other 2 thirds probably by noon tomorrow. but still, it's a hassle, it's. it's a pain in the neck for all the people, and we should be moving closer to using those $10000000000.00. but using part of it so that we can have greater solar power, greater wind power, and less use of fossil fuels. there's always going to be a timeline is net to get these other renewable energies in place and in working full for the public at large. and you already said that, you know, more royball generators might be needed during the hurricane season. we're not too far away from the hurricane season all way. i mean, what reassurance you give to those people that are watching this program on the

island, but you've got it in handle that the authorities really do have a backup plan. well, you know, the hurricane season starts in slightly a month and a half and there's not going to be any change from here to them. so we have to be careful. we have to big. i use our, our, our energy sparingly. we have to stock up for food, petrol, and other, and other goods that may be necessary. april hit by hurricane. we don't get hit by hurricane that all is only every 5 or 10 years. but if we say every 5 years, the last one was 5 years ago, so, so were due another hurricane pretty soon. well, let's hope it's not as damaging as that one and there is a happy ending to the story and not too distant future. kenneth mclean talk. thanks so much for joining us from puerto rico. thank you, sir. thank you very much. now the united states appeals court has reinstated the

president's executive order mandating kevin 1900 vaccinations. federal employees, the to one vote lifted an injunction issued by a texas court in january, the by the ministration successfully argued that the court's decision would cause disruptions in government work. places of us were 1000000 people have died so far uncovered related death in the us. the u. s. l sector has lost some half a 1000000000 workers since the start of the pandemic. while some will adolf, many resigned, and others stop working after suffering long illnesses. due to cave at 19 lady, and say the pandemic accentuated preexisting problems in the nursing system. my camera reports, they've been the caring responders in the battle against the pandemic, working long hours and over crowded hospitals and experiencing the ravages of colbert 19, and it's variance on a daily basis. and while this being a decline in hospital admissions, as the vaccines take hold, the stress on the nurses is far from over there. some of our colleagues within the

a nursing shortage. but there's a shortage of jobs in which nurses feel valued and safe. congresswoman john chicago ski has been working on federal legislation to protect nurses since 2004. you know we hear that sometimes from the hospital. there's this big nursing shortage. nope. there is only a shortage because there is not the ability of nurses to go back to work safely and to protect their patients as well. it's predominantly nurses who are at the forefront of the vaccination campaign. billions of them still out there working despite an environment that remains fall from ideal to many. it's a calling as much as a profession. i really have come to the point where i, i, i don't think that there's any other place that i would want to be. but there are

situations and days at work where i think, i don't know if i can keep doing this. statistics indicate the pandemic could be waning, but the scars remain for the millions that have lost family or friends. and for those who have held the hands of the dying, my cannot just error washington. actually, the prue has declared a state of emergency in order to clear highways blocked by truckers protesting inflation. thousands marched in the capital, lima once again, violence and looting in recent days of lead to the death of at least 5 people. protest us want the president to resign. e blames the pandemic m, the ukraine law for price hikes. the french fall right presidential candidate, martin le pen as held her final campaign rally before sundays. elections. supporters gathered in the pepe nor a city in the south pulse address. the race is tightening with le pen and
