a desperate search for survivors in the philippines after a tropical storm triggers land slides of floods, killing at least 138 people, and the world's richest man. the law must make the whole salvage to take over. twitter will tell you why or come to the break. i mean, what's being seen as a major blow to russia. the biggest war ship in its black sea fleet has sunk after being severely damaged by a blast. the satellite images were captured on wednesday before the moscow was damaged. the defense ministry says the damage was caused by ammunition exploding on board, but the ukrainian military says it hit the vessel with cruise missiles. us national security advised jake sullivan says, whatever the cause losing the ship is bad news for russia. so we've been in touch with the craniums overnight, who had said that they struck the ship with the ship missiles. we don't have the

capacity at this point to independently verify that, but certainly the way that this unfolded, it's a big blow to russia. they, this is their flagship, the moscow. and they have now been forced to admit that it has been badly damaged and they've had to kind of choose between 2 stories. one story is that it was just in competence, and the other was that they came under attack. and neither is a particular good outcome. for them all cost on resource of their has more from keith early and they have talked to a senior army official in your, in your gaining official here. and he told me that they have here, that this was despite russia, russian delegation that it was caused by an explosion. she said that they have here the, the worship by a neptune cruise missile. so i asked him,

how is that possible while a did most worship is having a very advanced defense systems. you say that at 1st by the don't we have the word, it's raider system. and then later we, we strike to strike. did there the worship? so in any way, we will, we will, we know that russia assume 2014 of the den station of crania was increasing. the naval forces india black sea. and so far, the russian black sea fleet has remained intact. but now after the ukraine, particularly receiving the weapons more and more from the nato countries, we can see that now this watches are coming under the range of the weapons that are being used by you frame. the average advice says a defense and security analyst where that wiki strata a global risk consultancy,

that he thinks the damaging of the ship indicates, ukraine's going capabilities that had probably not been anticipated by russia. we've seen the ukrainians make excellent use of defensive missiles. they been able to use air defense nestles to shoot down many russian planes and helicopters and therefore 4th russian air force, basically to focus its flying over russian territory and then launch missiles from, from there. they've also use these very effectively in terms of shooting and killing russian armor, personnel carriers and tanks that played a major role in defense care of. and if they shot a rock and killed a russian ship with some an anti ship methyl that a new capability, they are demonstrating. and if anything, will become stronger, their reports that the british are going to per, providing the recreations as more advanced harpooned anti ship missiles. and there

may be other missiles coming in. so this will certainly show off russia, ukraine's capabilities to overcome russian advantages and platforms through skillful use of missiles. so the u. k. is warning, come with those can cause that the next guy likely to be the next target for russia . potentially seeing the same high levels of violence and destruction as seen in other urban centers. because keith and mariel o deserves and hardship. nicole, all square russian and strikes have been hitting farms. we do warn you that you may find some of the images in his report. distressing. and mccann and we are at the area and you're cremmit tours, which was targeted a minute ago. you can see the plumes of smoke and there is one of the victim to civilian women. simply a farmer. i think this area is a farming area less than 20 kilometers near perimeter. woman says one man, probably her husband is trapped inside. this farm came under an air strike. my war

was hit by a number of business. as you can see, the smoke and flames are still rising into the sky. what you want one help can man, this soldier is trying to search for the man inside the soldier is shoving out for him, but there's no sign of demand. over the past hours, the rushing jet fighters have been hovering over crematory, carrying out a number of strikes. ukrainian authorities did not disclose the target areas, but we came to the farming area in less than 20 kilometers from the city center. as you witnessed, there's one injured woman, possibly telling me. now the secretary general has called full maximum restraint and for israeli and palestinian authorities to work to preserve calm amid escalating violence. the occupied west bank 6 palestinians including a 14 year old boy, had been killed in the past 24 hours as israeli forces increased security operations following a number of attacks. the abraham explains ha,

killed on thursday were from jeannine, north of the west bank jeanine has become the center of the current we've with escalation, with almost daily rate buys. where the forces, hundreds of gunmen live in the g, need refugee camp, and often returns ready fire with fire trouble. i'm a law jamia ha. youth and i'm a law raging, i'm not only talking about me about i know how every young man is feeling. the youth and rama law are all ready for escalation. we cannot accept to just sit and watch our brothers and janine and nobliss and other areas. while the resisting and being martyred and injured, these really military says it's conducting a counter terrorism operation. it started early april after 2 gunmen from the janine area committed to attacks in israel, leaving 8 israelis dead. palestinian prisoners group sees really forces of arrested more than $200.00 palestinians since the operation started. but tension stretch back longer than that. since the beginning of the year,

more than $1500.00 palestinians have been detained and at least $41.00 palestinians have been killed. the majority and confrontations with these renewed military. 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 heighten tensions all across the west bank. 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 the israeli army wade, their cities arrest people and sometimes shooting, kill them. on thursday, a general strike was announced in 3 cities on the west bank, the double lock, bethlehem, and jeannine to mourn the dead palestinians fear that they'll be more ready rates in the des. ahead need that but a him. elijah's eda, the occupied westbank and he's really military is accused of launching several

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 we settled will be given the support, including up to 5 days of training with the help of integration accommodation, health care, so that they can, we settle and plan the rwandan government 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. claim is unsuccessful. many ones have experienced what it means to be displaced. this has shipped how we approach migration and asylum. glenda already provided a huge for almost 130000 if you use from multiple countries, including neighbors like the d, r a, c, and devonte is as african eastern and migrants if a created from libya, despite the words about ruined, is often maurice johnson says,

the scheme should act as a deterrent 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, i party have caught the whole idea, immoral, unworkable, and a huge waste of money. this government needs to create more safe routes. it needs to be looking at creating an italian visa system, for example, where people can claim, assigned them in a country, such as an embassy and so that they don't have to put their money and their lives in the hands of people. there are many other options to this to this issue. it's far from clear how much this scheme will cost beyond practicalities. many have expressed amazement that the choice of her wonder last year britain itself called for independent investigations into allegations of extrajudicial 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 saying, sending them to a wander will simply increase the risk to their physical and mental health. nadine barber al jazeera or still had here on al jazeera florida, becomes the latest republican control view state to impose the abortion restrictions. as the conservative supreme court looks pleased to re examine abortion rights, the sprint to the finish and frances presidential election will have the latest from the campaigns of incumbent mental macro. and the challenger, marine le pen to stay with the journey has begun. the fee for world cup is on its way to catherine book. your travel package today. the western pacific has already its ty, food,

about him. he'll em us. confirming in his 1st interview, since the news broke, that he wants to buy twitter, saying it's not about making money, but something bigger. having a public platform that is maximally trusted and broadly inclusive is extremely important. so the future of civilization. a week ago he bought a 9 percent stake in the social media platform, making him it's a biggest shareholder, but he wasn't done. musk broke the news appropriately on twitter, making an offer for 100 percent of the company at $54.20 a share. a total purchase of a little over $40000000000.00 in a letter to the company's board of directors. musk said twitter has extra ordinary potential. i will unlock it. it almost got very strong opinions on, on free speech, you know, on his what he believes twitter needs to do to fix the platform. i think that those

are not necessarily aligned with the majority of old, of those children twenties. and so from that respect, i think this could be a bad day for because what he uses eye mask as a love hate relationship with twitter, with 81000000 followers. he is an adept user of the platform and boast it's potential, but he's also been critical of twitters aggressive stance at canceling accounts of users. it feels promot misinformation, even if that user is a president. last year twitter permanently suspended, the account of donald trump critic say a twitter take over by musk would be dangerous. ellen musk on a stick to cars in the twitter board on a rejected offer. and we've seen ellen musk 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 the u. s.

government charged mosque with securities fraud in 2018 for misleading tweets that he sent out about his car company tesla. he agreed to settle and pay nearly $40000000.00 in fines, but musk knows that his attempt to buy twitter could bring similar government scrutiny. people should discount the father. this is the world's richest man. and he is having a lot of fun. he and he's enjoying it and he could well turned out to be the biggest private that we had the road is ever seen. will the little bird have a new owner? it very well could, if musky serious and gets his way, which is far from a sure thing. gabriel's ando al jazeera new york. ah, your child is there with me. so robin, reminder of all top stories. the biggest ship in russia's black sea fleet has been sunk by a blast forcing its.
