10:02 am
let's say cross to john holeman is dining by 1st in occupied, his truce, observed jonah, i believe you're at damascus gate to tell us what you're saying, what's been happening. what else to the incidents that you were speaking about earlier this friday morning? there are now checkpoints, barriers that have been put up around the damascus gates. this is where people usually go in and then head up to the alex or mosque to pray. you can see there are sorts of mass of people, and the word is that the israeli security officials are letting in only women and the elderly at the moment. so there are holdups that she also is an area where, especially later on in the day, people usually sit down on the stairs that you can say that at the moment there's a barrier as well up at the top for the damascus gate. before you get to the stairs, where they're also stopping people, and i'm also just looking now at a number of people there that a waiting at the top of the gate. now before this,
10:03 am
this year is ready, security forces had been trying to keep more of a low key presence here and not to restrict the access of people so much to get to alexa mos, because that had just meant more attention than escalation in the past. so that's obviously changed right now. it all that's coming at the time, heightened tensions. and of course, what we saw in the early hours of this morning to run about $630.00 was, is ready, security forces going into the compound and we've seen some pictures inside the mosque itself. what do we know about that? yes, we con, confirm. at the moment, if is railey security force is actually entered the most. what these railey government has put out in a statement on twitter is that they said that they were masked men who were marcia men who were entering the compound, carrying flags with hamas. and the p a standards on them that they began to 3
10:04 am
rocks and that the israeli security forces had to respond to that, to the remove the roster, and then to disperse them. what the mom of the access last has said is that this is an incursion by security israeli security forces to try and turn people out the most and is called the for the palestinian authority to protect the mos. so any, all these tensions are happening, it's, there's this confluence of religious festivals, ramadan from muslims are the 2nd friday of ramadan. it's possible for jews. it's easter for christians. and we've had these deaths in these continuing res from israeli security forces do what they call anti terrorism rates. given the context of all of that's one of the fears about where this could lead yes, let's go on to that. i'm just getting an update now as well that we're talking about more than a 100 injured 1. 117 people, sorry more than a 100 people are injured and what happened early this morning. so this is something
10:05 am
that is reasonably a big deal. this isn't something that's unprecedented, we should add, this is something that's happened before in past years and going back to your question when it has happened in past years, this sort of tension, these sort of clashes that begin at the alex and most don't tend to stay that they do tend to spill out and over the situation in general here. now just last year, this was one of the causes of one of the reasons this escalation intentions there at the alex acts of mouth and the accessing, getting through it. the lead to an 11th day war between israel and hamas. so the worry is that this thought slight this fairly localized around the most and then turns into something bigger. or john leave that for the moment. thanks for that update to the time being but would be a bit later. let's head over to the village of cooper dunn and begin needed to him in the occupied west bank. so needed. tell us about where you are and what's

10:14 am
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 for the 1st, at least on friday. and they're on shore for algeria into the where the blue shows you where the rain is going to be. so we're dry now for spain and support go for 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 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 in europe is nothing quite as dramatic. there is cold, cold pushing, pushing down through germany and poland. that will 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
10:15 am
that same low has been circulating, bringing up a huge amount of dust into libya, back into our students here. that will continue. ah frank assessments, what are the political risks of batting russian oil, a gas for western leaders, pull sanctions on russian energy exports. her recipe for such informed opinions, france is not abandoning to fight against jetty, still resumed media, yet going to be teaching from nisha and from chad critical debate. could china actually help in russia's invasion of ukraine in depth analysis of the days global headlines inside story on al jazeera blue?
10:16 am

10:17 am
annexation of crimea. to deny it teaches that he believes that st. just 14000 people have died as of today since the beginning of the conflict ain't on boss. how did the world respond to it? the question has remained rhetoric, but it's because of this that russia decided they can afford this large scale war that he had, he said needful, drink, 50 days of rushes, lord, kill invasion that they showed that it's the dumbass. that is the main target for russia. it's the dumbass that russia wants to destroy, the 1st place. it's denounced and law hunt, screeching, that russian troops are trying to destroy in a way as if they wanted only stones left without any people. that's all. the largest warship in russia's black sea fleets is now sunk of to been damaged in an explosion of the satellite. images were taken on wednesday before the incident on the masika. the russian defense ministry says ammunition exploded on board. the crating military says it hit the vessel with cruise missiles. the sinking is a major setback for russia. we've been in touch with ukrainians overnight,
10:18 am
who had said that they struck the ship with anti ship missiles. we don't have the capacity at this point to independently verify that by 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. ringback is that it was just in competence and the other was that they came under attack and neither is a particularly good outcome for them. okay, let's take this on. we can speak to puzzle falcon, how and moscow he's defense military unlisted. so pavel, what happened to moscow will come out in time, no doubt, but symbolically. whatever did happen, it's a big loss, a rush or isn't it? oh, it's absolutely a very big loss. it's a flagship. losing
10:19 am
a flagship is injuring a war, is well, really bad. it's at that p r. it's bad. it's going to expect expand an increase of the morale of the ukrainians at that time when they are on the verge of losing mary who bore under which is under siege and where the air a small garrison is right now. cornered, so for them it's very important than this ship was important that was specifically designed. and so he, at times to attack and destroy american aircraft carrier groups with away very long range, a supersonic o cruise missiles and the ship and which can also carry a nuclear weapon and actually could be it's a guest, but it's possible that they've had actually nukes on board, when it went down, that's also a possibility. and so it's a rush and said that their main missiles were not destroyed. well,
10:20 am
now they're on the bottom of the black sea. and of course, this also ship had a very massive and d air capability. and was used as an anti air, a defense ship in syria, where it was deployed several times to cover the russian air beast that from a name. and in the black sea banquet was there at a snake island close to the shores of romania and ukraine. to cover with the in provide their coverage, defense coverage. okay. will a much smaller to russian ships given the 3rd one that same load? likely the leak loss. yeah. indeed. and given the state board us, the more likely doesn't it that the martha was indeed sunk by ukrainian missiles? well, it's so distinct possibility, as it was not far from the cranium coast and the arrange ukrainian
10:21 am
and the ship miss sask kind of it could they could have fated ah, also of course there's been reports that the ukrainians received harpoon and the ship massage from the united e from u j o. so they have no right now for sure. what if it was a massage gradient, say it's there. and in messiah co, neptune that they kind of built on the basis a russian of soviet missiles i would make it may be anything, said then the question is that if that is the case, then in the fact that the and martha was was lined up. so close to shore, they must have underestimated the ukrainians ability to hit it. and what are the implications moving on as we look to the, the sea battle? well, that means the russia ships will try and be far further away from the desk. are they are basically blocking a best in, right? russian name of back c please. right now it's
10:22 am
a bad main task is to prevent any kind of try and a transport including civilian, try see transport going in or out of this. that's the biggest ukrainian porton that's under ukrainian control and now the path have problems there because they all have added were there so air cover, that means they'll be more vulnerable to their attack by ukrainians. and that's a bit of a piedmont, though, then does not, of course prevent the rush of ground army from mac of continuing the war to all. i just want to get it back to what you said very briefly about the munitions on board, the mosque for it. so you said this it be conventional weapons as well as did you say nuclear as well? well that's a possibility. indeed, perma. there is a kind of unofficial agreement reached by actually of president bush and president
10:23 am
gorbachev, and 9 d, one not to deploy nuclear non strategic weapons on sci vessels, and a submarines and greg surface whistles. but that's not the treaty. and there been indications that russia was the boy there in the present situation, when they are such a tension between the west and russia. that could be a kind of foss ability of that some of the 16 as supersonic and the ship message on board could have had, especially with this in russia, nuclear warhead on board when the ship was get it. and it was so if that is the case, of course those are now lying on the bottom, the sea, a pebble have to leave that for the time being at thanks your analysis and expertise. pebble falcon house beans was there from moscow mccune, while the war in ukraine is having some unexpected consequences,
10:24 am
germany had been phasing out mining but has now reversed that decision off to the e. u band in ports of russian co set vassal reports. now from bank brandenburg on the search for alternative energy, nick knight or brown coal, has long been at the center of environmental protest called the dirtiest form of gold that has been providing power to the german economy and households for decades under pressure from the green party the new government announced it aims to close these open minds by 2030, but that was before russia invaded ukraine college by gun scrape of a terrible war ukraine means we are realizing. but alex's used to play in germany, wasn't and isn't very secure. and those several possible risk factors applies to gas oil and the hard cold too. and, but of course, some who are now thinking the domestic energy source, which will always be available, as well as wind and sun, of course. and that's last night to make sure there's enough energy and future
10:25 am
winters at regional government. and brandon book has asked permission to keep some late night power plant on stand by to have the necessary supply for the coming winter season. and that hopefully without any dependence on imports from russia, that problem has still not been solved. and inter, as, as i'm coming from the field of industrial safety, i would prefer a trust situation with belt and parachute. and so it would be worthwhile to keep them available. ukraine has accused germany of financing rushes war because of the dependency on russian gas, oil and coal. the u has decided to ban coal imports, which will cost russia around 4000000000 years a year. in comparison, a ban on russian gas and oil would cost the country, $80000000000.00 euros. this is one of the few po, a stations in germany, not depending on import from russia. domestically produce lick night is one of the most reliable sources germany has,
10:26 am
but also one of the most polluting. it was unthinkable just a few months ago that the new government, in which greens play an important role would even consider using more coal. but the war and ukraine has changed everything and the climate could be and not a victim. more c, o, 2 emissions instead of last, an uncomfortable reality for environmental groups who have long campaigned for one and 2 coal use. germany for a long period of time, have fun to rush and redeem the fall of russia and has put russia in a position to find that war. unfortunately, we cannot get rid of that dependency or not. it's obviously a bit appeal. we have old code power plant that have to get back on the grid, but we have to accelerate the build of renewables. this need some years that the germany industry now has a 2 year target that its future is based on enable mc. but building wind farms and solar panels takes time and germany is under pressure to act. now that pressure
10:27 am
will only grow if terrible images continue to come out of ukraine. and you decide to go further. and then russian oil and gas steadfast and else's era in brandon, both china is warning the united states is going down a dangerous path by sending politicians to taiwan. 5 senators and congressmen are in type pay where they've met the president and have stress report for the island. they say neither taiwan nor the u. s. 6. any conflict with china, which claims to taiwan as its territory. the world's richest man wants to buy twitter. the loan mosque who recently increased his stake in the social media platform to 9 percent, has made a hostile bit with the company. twitter says it will carefully review the $43000000000.00 offer. gabriel and it's under reports now from you. ah, he long musk likes being center stage in everything he does. you guys are going to die. and now must attempt to take over. twitter has certainly got every one
10:28 am
talking 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 to 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, on, on his what he believes twitter needs to do to fix the platform. i think that there's
10:29 am
not necessarily aligned with the majority of old, 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 eon, 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.
10:30 am
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 sha'n't discount the father, this is the world's richest man. and he is having a lot of fun here, and he's enjoying it and he could well turned out to be the biggest product that we had to was 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 said 0. these are the top stories and at least a $117.00 palestinians have been injured during violet confrontations with israeli forces the alexa moscow.
