moskva has led russia's naval assault during the war, making it an important military target or wrestle, sir, there is life for us there in key f wrestles mentioning developments, of course here, what more can you tell us? and please remind us of this vessel significance. well, it's a quite a significant blow here to russia. it's the soviet area, $610.00 food at the were so he had area aero wessel. so in that sense, it had been also a symbol of dip. of the might of the powerful a russian black sea fleet as well. on the other hand, it is also a symbolic a game for the ukrainians as well. just because in the early days of the war, this same war mosque was worshipped, most war was approaching as opposed to snake island. where, where it, which was protected by the ukrainian and the border troops, and their persons military personnel on the,

this worship has asked the ukrainian through to surrender. and in returned ukrainian soldiers read your message, telling them to go to hell. so in that sense, it has been quite a symbolic a warship, both for, for russia and for the ukrainians as well. this is a ship that has been also used against the city of rebels in the mediterranean sea as well. so today, early in the they have told to a senior army official in euchre in ukrainian official here, and he told me that they have a hit this, the dis worship despite rushes. a rush was allegation that it was caused by an explosion. he said that they have hit them that the worship by a neptune a cruise missile. so i asked him, how is that possible while a dis, a most were worship, is having a very advanced m e m,

air defense systems. he says that at 1st by the drones be how they work, it is re their system. and then later we, we strike to answer that. we strike there that there, that the worship. so in any way we will, we will, we know that russia a cs 2014 after then excision of crania was queasiness, naval forces in the mediterranean, c, as in the black sea. and so far, these russian black sea fleet had remained intact. but now it after ukraine, particularly receiving the weapons more and more from the nato countries. we can see that now there's washes, are coming under the range or did the weapons that are being used by ukraine, russell soda and kia, thank you for the update. now ukraine's foreign minister is calling for military assistance to help break the russian siege. on the port city of mariano, about a 120000 people are still trapped left according to the math,

huge sways of the city are in ruins. the exact number of civilians killed isn't clear yet, but ukraine says it's at least 21000. the criminal claims that russian forces are now in control of the poor city. but ukraine says its forces are still standing. iran con has more on the situation in marielle from the capital. there is this fog of war again, and we keep seeing this when it comes to what the russians claim on what the ukrainians claim. but all we really know is there is an intense fight going on right now for the port of mary. opal will know for sure when the russian start, when we start seeing russians walk around that port, they will know if it's been taken by the russians or not because that's something that they do and they have done in the past ukrainians. right now we're saying we're still in the fight. however, the mayor of the variable is also been speaking. what he's actually said he's, is that he's up the numbers. he's now talking about 125000 people trapped inside

the city, most of whom can't get out by the humanitarian corridors. he's also talking about the fact though it's now 90 percent of the city has been completely destroyed just last week. that figure was at 75 percent. so the u. k is warning crumb a torque and constant and if curve are likely to be the next targets for russia, potentially seeing the same high levels of violence and destruction as seen in other urban centers like hockey, even murray or pal al jazeera is omar, are heard, she is near crime a tall square russian air strikes have been hitting farms. said that, oh my god and we are at the area you're cremmit tours, which was targeted a minute ago. you can see the plumes of smoke and there is one of the victims. she is a civilian woman, simply a farmer. this area is a farming area less than 20 kilometers near cremmit tours. the woman says, one man, probably her husband is trapped inside the flames. this form came under an air strike my war plant. it was hit by a number of bristles. as you can see, the smoke and flames were still rising into the sky. what is it? why one help?

hello ma'am. this soldier is trying to search for the man inside. the soldiers shall be out for him. but there is no sign of the man. over the past hour, the russian jet fighters have been hovering over crime, a tourist carrying out a number of airstrikes. ukrainian authorities did not disclose the targeted areas. but we came to this farming area in less than 20 kilometers from the city center. as you witnessed, there's one injured woman and possibly of a talented inside. the un is warning the warn ukraine is having serious global consequences. 30 percent of the world's wheat and barley 20 percent of mays a more than half of all, some flower oil come from ukraine and russia. russia is also one of the largest natural gas and oil exposes, and together with bell roost, it ships more than 20 percent of the wells fertilizes. the war is pushing up prices and fuel prop food prices on fuel prices, especially in asia and africa. the you and estimates at least 1700000000 people in

a 107 countries are affected with well food program has started distributing food in the ukranian city of boucher where mass graves have been discovered. the groups executive director david beasley says the situation on the ground is horrific. i was just in boots or just literally a couple hours ago is seen on the streets, the devastation here in the stories of, of women, children being indiscriminately shot. i went to an orphanage orbit, a home where 40 orphans were living and it's been bomb completely just destroyed. it's just ripping what we're seeing on the ground here. you know, most of the farmers are the truck drivers or guess where they are, they on the front last friday tried to defend their country. and so this is a task in itself. and then you've got all the checkpoints, with military offences taking place and trying to move supplies in harm's way. and we know how to do this. we operate basically 80 percent of our worldwide operations

are in areas of war or conflict. so we know how to do this, and i can tell you this is a very, very complex and difficult place to operate right now. movie supplies of food in these war areas is extremely difficult for us. and we're very concerned that people are starving because we're not being given. the ice is that we need, if we get the access, we will reach everybody in ukraine. and of course, we've got great concerns about the people outside of ukraine. this going to be impacted by the agricultural shut down the state, the place in this country, but i don't think the impacts will be what we call a ripple effect. i think this could be a soon ami a say that's what we're looking at. 50 percent of what we buy to feed, we feed about 125000000 people around the world in the most delicate, fragile places. and if we're not there with food security, we're talking about not just famine. you're talking about destabilization of several nations and mass migration,

so we might be 80 percent of what we buy from ukraine, and that's just us. here's what most people don't realize. ukraine produces enough food to support 400000000 people around the world. and so we're talking about a global crisis. if we don't stabilize and open up the supply chain, this necessary, i can start going through country by country like ease of 85 percent of the screen for bread. for example, comes from ukraine and russia, lebanon, 80 percent, year before last bid. and keep going by country by country, by country. so vehicle create a global crisis if we don't address this and one of the things we've got to do, we got to get the farmers back in the field own to the trackers, so the harvest can take place and then we've got to move this harvest through the porch, we've got to protect the porch. we've got to open up the porch so that this master amount of food that these hundreds of millions of people around the world is

available to the people in the specially in the united, very sector. international monetary fund is warning the crisis in ukraine will continue to affect economies around the world. it's chief crystelina yoga says the war is hindering recovery off to the pandemic for a 1st time in many years, inflation has become a clear and present danger. for many countries around the world, this is a massive said beg for the global recovery. we will be projecting a further down great, the global growth for both 20222023. fortunately for most countries, growth will still remain in positive territory that set the impact of the war will contribute to forecast downgrades for a 143 economies. this ear accounting for 86 percent

of global g d p the u. s. and russia have trade in accusations over who's to blame for food insecurity in yemen. in a meeting of the united nations security council, millions of people are facing food insecurity and hunger. yemen relies heavily on imports of ukrainian grain, which have been interrupted since russia's invasion. hooton's war of choice in ukraine has made an already precarious foods in security situation in yemen, even worse, the world for programs march report identified yemen as one of the countries most affected by wheat price increases and lack of imports from ukraine. this is just another gram example of the ripple effect, rushes and provoked, unjust unconscionable war is having on the world's most vulnerable glove moves or fucked them used to be in the t. this can problem the main factor for instability and the source of the problem today. is not the russian special military operation

in ukraine, but sanctions and measures imposed on our country seeking to cut off any supplies from russia and the supply chain apart from those supplies. that those countries in the west need. in other words, energy. for this reason, ladies and gentlemen, if you really want to help the world avoid a food crisis, you should lift the sanctions that you yourselves imposed your sanctions of choice . and poor countries will immediately feel the difference. and if you're not prepared to do that, then don't get involved in demagoguery and don't mislead everybody. coming up on al jazeera, this news, our south africa as president calls floods in color, zulu natal, a catastrophe of epic proportions. hundreds have been confirmed dead, a more rain is forecast. and later in sports, the upsets keep coming at the multi color masters with another 5 seed packing. ah,

now the un secretary general has called for maximum restraint and for a strategy and palestinian authorities to work to preserve calm. i made escalating violence in the occupied westbank 6 palestinians including a 14 year old boy have been killed in the past day. as this ready forces increase operations following a number of attacks for an israel in the past 3 weeks left, 13 israelis dead, including a shooting of the center of tel aviv. since then it's ray, the forces have carried out daily raids, particularly focusing on jeanine and nablus, as well as killing several palestinians. they've wounded dozens of people with life, fire, and rubber bullets. and at least a 100 palestinians have been arrested in the past week. according to the palestinian prisoners club, it's friday. figures are low, are needed. abraham has this update from jeanine in the occupied westbank. there's a lot of tension, a lot of anger, a lot of sadness, 5 funerals took place to day in different places in the occupied west bank of the 6

people died by is really course is higher since wednesday. so you can imagine the level of intensity people, he'll say about accountability. the latest man to be pronounced dead is a 4 to 5 year old from nablus in the north of the occupied westbank where he succumbed to his wounds after he was so yesterday, by is ready for his my expectations in the area before that a 20 year old palestinian sky, rural went ahead and see where the 14 year old boy who assaulted the head after what palestinian se with confrontations near his village near bethlehem. so as you can see, these funerals and injuries and killings are happening in different areas. in the west bank to show you that there is a high level of intensity. there is anger, but we need to remember that since the beginning of the year 41 palestinians have

been killed. the majority of them in confrontations with these re the military. so we're not just talking about the latest attacks in israel as a starting point for the current escalation. yes, indeed, it has contributed to heights intentions all across the west. but palestinians want the world to know that they have been under occupation for decades. and it's rarely been a night in the west bank where they haven't seen israeli army wade, their cities, arrests people, and sometimes shoot and kill them. let's bring it in to hardy. mustafah who's a westbank analyst of the international crisis group. she joined us live from amman in jordan to honey kind of stop by asking you specifically about the city of janine . because you know, that long ago was described in the israeli media as a model of palestinian stability, a city with a flourishing economy. can you explain how and why things have changed so

significantly over the past few months and weeks? well, i think we have to consider a whose narrative is necessarily cooling to mean a prosperous city and how things of subsequently deteriorated. ah, yes. to a degree off to the 2nd and the father you did have, ah, you know, some economic incentivize ations coming from the israelis. you know, there were attempts to increase permits. i increase the number of workers into israel, but all of that, you know, effectively ended up leaving jeanine's economy dependent on his really good will. and as we've seen this time round with a, you know, a kind of a sort of type of economic punishment. it's now inflicting on the economy and jeanine by preventing his readies from entering. and you know, that brings in, you're talking about something like, oh, much over 30000 and shop as weekly. i, you know, that's just very much indicative of, of the way that israel has tried to use that good will. and that kind of economic

incentivize ation as a form of collective punishment as a form of political leverage. you know, so we have to be very, very of critical me think about that kind of prosperity that is real talks about the way that it uses those sorts of incentivize ations to try and root out radicalization which is what it tried to do in the decade. since the 2nd and the father and then we saw, you know, with covet 19 restrictions coupled with the fact that pierre has been suffering financially for the last decade. i, you know, that, that situation is only been, i, you know, intensified lately. i, the situation in gene isn't just about, you know, political, i am franchise nicholas about political disenfranchisement in and we have to take this within the context that it is the source of the problem. and it's just, this doesn't just go for places like jeanine. this goes for the westbank generally and got you touched upon something that i'd like to sort of pick up upon. and then that's the idea of economic sanctions, though about tightening the squeeze on

a city that the israelis of bay dependent dispos upon a ready money. what, what, what essentially is the, it would be the impact on the ground for ordinary people in cities like jeanine, having these measures introduced so harshly. well, you know, the economic sanctions, we're now seeing aah, is a foreign collective punishment. of course, it's gonna negatively impact people, but it's also going to be counter intuitive. you know, it's precisely these forms of israel collective punishment that have led us to the situation that we're at. now. you know, that sort of a reaction or overreaction, if you like, is exactly what ends up leading palestinians to the point of frustration to the point of desperation. and that's exactly what these are kind of lone wolf attacks and have basically, you know, it been premised on is palestinians office rated, you know, they feel like their interests are being ignored. their rights are being violated by the pete, the posting authority, hamas at his rel, you know,

they feel like all of that is being the trust by an international community that lacks any coherent policy. ah, so i think ultimately this is going to be very counterintuitive. it's, it's gonna, you know, have the absolute adverse effect a judy and also has the other issue of a lot refugee camp right next to it. what do we know about the situation there and how i, how standard of living? i suppose of people in that camp is in some way feeding into this stand off into this violence. absolutely. i mean that the janine refugee count i, you know, it's, it's, it's been subject to our repeated military assaults by the israelis. i don't forget that the majority of the counts residents, all refugees from 948. and you know, they possess refugee status, which means that they are affectively marginalized from the majority of service provision. a living conditions within the air camps themselves. you know, you're talking back economic deprivation or insecurity is right. people lack a,

you know, a proper law and order it. so you know, you're, you're dealing with again, palestinians who are suffering from economic and political disenfranchisement to honey. we'll stop up. thank you very much. thank you. now, the number of people killed in flooding in south africa has risen to more than 340 president, cyril ramirez, her house, call the disaster, and causing that. how province a catastrophe of epic proportions areas near the eastern, coastal city of durban experienced the heaviest rain in 60 years of hosa has warned . he expects the situation to worsen, saying, flooding is part of climate change, or for me to mila is in causally, not our province. with this report, ah, life is slowly returning to normal in amanda outside of durban. 3 days after torrential rain and fighting caused wide spread damage. this is the 1st day of 20

piney pac money has been able to operate his food business, which he relies on for a daily income. is corckalone has been up and oh in is it doesn't the floods have really affected us. the people who used to support us could not come in by law because they were not going to work law. you even the little money they had mice, they had to use outside with the water and electricity supply still cut off plenty . plenty does not have any way to keep his star city officials a year to begin clearing and rebuilding some of the roads and bridges, which collapse to were destroyed by mud slides at a home to la, kill him. so he's cleaning up. she says as the flood level reached as high as the rooftop of 5 children, just managed to make it out safely. blasio let our call all in it. if it is, i've lost everything. my kids, birth certificate, school books and clothes, my fridge, my television, nothing's working. as you can see around here and i've not received any help. i only managed to get blankets for my neighbor. i called a resident,

no tender zebra yellow says some food has been distributed, but people in this ward have not received any and they have to make use of whatever they can to get by 5. like most of my community members are using the stream where the water we don't even know it's coming from. so to wash our laundry and also drink from this are contaminated water. while people try to recover, it could be short lived. more rain is expected in the coming days. many people living in informal settlements like this one ready struggle to make ends meet. the destruction caused by the flooding has sent them back even further in many say, they've not received help from the government that's despite its promises to assist those affected lemetre. mila al jazeera devin south africa, the world's richest man wants to buy twitter. l o musk has put in a bid, amounting to more than 40000000000 dollars for the entire company. he recently bought a 9 percent stake, meaning his already its biggest shareholder. twitter says it will carefully review

the offer, the tesla and space ex owner says twitter falls short of its free speech principles and needs a complete overhaul. well, let's go to gabriel is on those in new york, so we will know gabriel, that are in moscow doesn't shy away from a good her proverbial punch upon twitter. but why on earth does your now want to buy it? well, heres 81000000 followers, he tweets a lot, he uses twitter very aggressively. and as we all know, of course, and he's claiming that he wants to buy it because he thinks it needs fixing. and in his words, only he can fix it. and he said he's got the plan to do it. and but what he's saying though, is he spoke to at a tech's event in vancouver, canada a few hours ago. and he said why he doesn't want to buy twitter. and that's because he said it's not financial, he doesn't expect to make

a lot of money off of it. he says he's doing it because a free speech. and then he doesn't think that twitter is the right platform for free speech. he said that twitter restricts free speech in his view and says he's doing this for the good of humanity. this really is an issue here of the future direction of twitter because as we know, twitter very much is not afraid to de platform or restrict the account or delete the account of people that they think are, are, are promoting misinformation on the site. even donald trump was taken off the twitter. he must very much disagree with that. and this is part of the reason why he wants to buy it because he says he wants he can fix twitter and make it more of a free speech platform. of course, a lot of people disagree with that and say there's plenty of free speech on twitter . but anyway, this is at least what he's saying, why he's willing to potentially cut a check for more than $40000000000.00 to own it. so it's like a huge 2nd, a huge offer, but seriously, all the markets taking this offer you know,

i've been talking to people all day listening to analysts all day and people are really split here on wall street. half the people you talk to say, you know what the board of twitter should accept this offer. another half said, there's no way that the board getting good conscious accept this offer. there is a lot of it is a lot of split here, but the twitter stock dropped about 2 percent on thursday. so that tells you there is some uncertainty that this a could really go forward. and there are a lot of hurdles still. the board could simply say no, must could revoke his offer. some other person or company could come in with a counter offer. there is still a lot of uncertainty here, but, but clearly this offer by musk was not expected. in fact, just a week ago, he said there's no way i would want to buy all of twitter. now here we go. and then he announced on twitter that he does want to buy all twitter. so he does make some

time some, some very radical decisions. and unexpected decisions and announcements, many of them on twitter, of course. and so there is uncertainty and that's why the markets are really cool on this right now. that's what he saw. twitter stock drop about 1.7 percent on thursday that could all change tomorrow or the next day. but as of now, wall street sitting back and saying, let's see what happens in the coming days here. so the world focusing his attention on twitter for any possible surprise announcements. gabriel. thank you very much. well, jessica gonzales is co c o of free press and organization focusing on communication rights. she says it would be dangerous to have the billionaire and control. frankly, i think your musk ought to stick to cars in the twitter board ought to reject this offer. this is about more than just investment money and markets. this is about the future of our democracy. this is about public health and safety, civil and human rights. and i don't think you on must understand anything about

that. there is a balancing of important interests that have to be done when it comes to content moderation. and we've seen you on mosque time and again spread vaccine just information, use the platform to build his own wealth at the expense of others, and call on his troll army to attack and harass people who disagree with him. this is not the future for free expression that i want to see. this is not the future free expression that we need for multiracial democracies in the 21st century. other companies, like disney have looked at twitter, they found that it wasn't profitable enough to me mean that it was a good investment. i think that the line must, and this is an assumption, i'm not inside his head, but i think that he wants to control how we connect and communicate. and i don't think this is a good business investment. it seems to me that at the heart of this is his desire to control how the communication flows over the platform still to come on out as

they were up this news on the rivals to be frances next president trade accusations of authoritarianism on the campaign trail and west ham reach, their 1st european, semi final in 46 years, will show you how they did it in schools. ah, now the weather in eastern spade is not been that brilliant. recently you can see the clouds billowing over the western med and it's been causing a lot of problems. rain wise and the loads. it's been driving it all is still there . elsewhere in europe, not quite as dramatic. so we'll head south 1st. the winds are still like, be quite strong through the barracks at 1st, at least on friday. and they're on shore for algeria into an izzy, where the blue shows you where the rain is going to be. so we're dry now for spain

and the porch go off. most of france, in fact, temperature was in the twenty's. it's really fitting, quite pleasant. now i take you through to saturday. the rain is still there. been to museum, had to was libya and things improved. now jerry, the wind is to the north leave, it is not particularly strong, although any be through i think you will find it quite noticeable. now i said elsewhere, i knew it is nothing quite as dramatic. there is cold, cold pushing, pushing down through germany and poland. that'll not come back that a single thing is i think take rate in some sleep with it. but typically the sun is out and of course it's spring sun. so most places are fine. you'll see snow on the higher ground, and this is definitely the colder part of europe. dropping south in that same low has been circulating, bringing up a huge amount of dust into libya, back into our students here. that will continue. ah, the coveted beyond well taken without hesitation,

brought and died for power lines are, well, we live here, we make the rule, not them. they find an enemy and then they try and scare the people with people and power investigators exposed is and questions they use and abuse of our around the globe on al jazeera, used from al jazeera on the go. and me tonight out is there is all new mobile app is. this is where we dissect online. and i guess from out is there is a mobile app available in your favorite app store. just set for it and tapped made a new app from al jazeera needs at your fingertips. lou,

awe mind of the top stories here on al jazeera, the biggest warship in russia's black sea fleet is sunk after being severely damaged by a bluff. the defense ministry says the musk file was damaged by ammunition exploding on board. but the ukrainian military says it hit the vessel with cruise missiles. israeli army says dozens of palestinians have been arrested and had weapons confiscated as part of what israel calls counter terrorism operations in the occupied. westbank is forces of also killed 6 palestinians, including a 14 year old boy in the past day. the world's richest man milan. musk wants to buy twitter. the tesla and space x owner has put in

a bit amounting to more than $40000000000.00 for the entire company. he recently bought a 9 percent stake meeting. he's already its biggest shareholder at the u. k. government is defended, it's planned to send some asylum seekers to wonder. the $160000000.00 trial scheme would affect men arriving on boats across the english channel. prime minister boys johnson says it would save countless lives and prevent trafficking rights groups, though, have criticized. it is cruel and flag who and as poor human rights record that in barbara reports to process just so anyway, with on the white cliffs of dover, looking out across the english channel, which separates britain from france. 600 people crossed this narrow stretch of water by boat on wednesday. not a huge figure in the scheme of things. but on the prussia forest, johnson is determined to be seen to be doing something to stop the dangerous journey's position. and so more than 6000 kilometers away, kigali,

his home secretary announced an ambitious deal with the rwandan government. in theory, any one who enters the u. k by or a so called illegal root may be sent to rolanda to have their claim for asylum processed. those who are resettled will be given to support, including up to 5 days of training with the help with integration accommodation, health care, so that they can resettle and plan through and, and governments getting the initial payment of roughly a $156000000.00. it says it'll offer people protection and a chance to rebuild their life, even if they're asylum and claim is unsuccessful. many ones have experienced what it means to be displaced. this has shipped how we approach migration and asylum. wonder already provide the future for almost 130000 if you use from multiple countries, including neighbors like the d, r a, c, and d is there as for goodness and migrants. if a created from libya,

despite the u. k. words about ruined is often for his johnson says the scheme should act as a deterrents to people thinking of crossing the channel. whatever the case is accepted, there will be legal challenges. in many ways, it's a clear breach of the 1951 united nations refugee convention. beyond that opposition politicians and some conservatives from johnson's a party. of course, the whole idea, immoral, unworkable, and a huge waste of money needs to create more safe routes. it needs to be looking at creating a she needs a system, for example, where people can claim, assign them in a country such as in an embassy and so that they don't have to put their money and their lives in the hands of people. there are many of the options to this to this issue, and then people having to use people focused or when they arrive to being for flu system where 6000 miles away. it's far from clear how much the sky will cost be on

practicalities many have expressed amazement that the choice of her wonder last year britain itself called for independent investigations into allegations of extra digital killings, deaths in custody, enforce disappearances and torture in the country. and rights groups have drawn parallels with australia is experience of offshoring. asylum seekers. se sending them to a wander will simply increase the risk to their physical and mental health. nadine baba al jazeera or the number of people seeking asylum in the united kingdom has varied sharply over the past 20 years. u. k. home office figures show that the number reached its peak in 2002, where more than 84000 people applying for asylum, fall below 18020 hen. but it has risen steadily ever since last year. 48 and a half 1000 people sought asylum, the highest number since 2003 in 2004 about 88 percent of people seeking asylum were refused. that the initial decision,
