able to him who is in car cave and has more on russia strikes on residential areas . so yeah, limit, you know, guess what? solely on the massage. shooting the often targets the eastern neighborhood, the city of khaki has today landed in the defense of the city pacifically in this neighborhood. which house is the number president job buildings in factories, according to the security forces. and mr. landed here textile factory. one person was killed in at least 20 people were injured. the extent of the damage stretches to approximately 500 meters from where i am, emergency 70. the searching for potential victims khaki has been on the intensive bombardment. security forces on high alert knowing the areas in khaki for potential targets. russia has increased its attacks on civilians in khaki, indiscriminately shedding residential neighborhood. now the 17 palestinian worshippers have been injured to being forcibly disperse from the most compound, israeli, forced to say in response to palestinians starting up barricades to prevent ultra

right wing jewish groups. entering israeli police have increased their presence in the highly sides. you not by the tourism of these 2 people have been arrested. let's get the latest natasha can name is in occupied is teresa medicine. natasha what's happening now? well the jewish groups of $545.00 members of these jewish groups which include jewish settlers, ultra nationalists and zionists groups have now left the l ox. a compound after several our designated visit this morning. right now, there are a group of men, muslim men inside the l axa mosque. they say they have barricaded themselves inside to quote, defend it. but for now it looks like the bus loads of jewish people who came to the l oxide. compound today have left and things are a bit calm. they were inside the compound during visiting hours for non muslims and these hours are actually reduced. it's important to note during the holy month of

ramadan, the jewish groups go because also on the site is the temple mount. it is wholly to jews. in recent years, members of these groups have been calling for the right to pray and build actually another temple on the compound which of course is very provocative to palestinians . but right now all they can do is wander around the compound. they do not have the right to pray. we saw men, women, and children go in. we also saw heavy vandalism to the buses that they arrived on outside the gate. israeli police say that 4 people have been arrested in connection with that. a total of 9 people arrested and among those 17 injured that you mentioned their wounds included a rubber bullet injuries as well as beatings. and the touches are all sorts of pressure points around this time and today is no different. and particularly we

have this confluence of events that well for sure, and let's 1st start with the fact that this is pass over as well as ramadan. so right now there is a height in demand for access to the ox a compound, but it, we sort of need to rewind to march 22nd. that is when a series of 4 attacks happened in israel, killing 14 israelis. the israeli military responded with an ongoing operation in which i 2 doesn't about to doesn't palestinians have been killed. dozens of people arrested. there have been accusations of a heavy handed approach by the israeli military and the use of collective punishment. and then on leading up to the events on friday, there was a lot of agitation in the air because one of these fringe jewish groups was offering a cash prize for anyone who would enter the l ox. a compound on

a friday. it would be forbidden and to perform a ritual. sacrifice of a goat also prohibited is really a government said that will not happened. it has not happened. and in fact, 6 people were arrested on friday, including someone who had a goat near the old city. but this went viral on social media. it created a lot of outrage and agitation and calls for palestinians to mobilize and defend ox, a mosque. and then what we saw on friday was a confrontation between palestinians and the israeli police. more than 150 people injured, more than 400 people arrested human rights group said that was the largest one hour, one day mass arrest in 20 years. so that is all of this is still very fresh in the mines of palestinians and certainly fresh in the mines on the really side as well on the touch leave. that meant thanks very much for that update this week is set to

be a crucial test of who becomes the next president of france and mental macro takes on challenger marine the pendant debate on wednesday. the televised change will be watched by millions of people ahead of the april the 24th runoff election. patasha butler has bona from birth. while we're in the final leg of the french presidential election in one week, voters will go to the polls to pick the next president of france and choose between 2 very different vision for the country. on one side, disinterested. manual micro is running for a 2nd term as president, management of the covey pandemic in from august diplomacy over the war. and ukraine certainly played out very well with photos, but he's still struggling to shake his reputation amongst thumb. that he is a president who favors the rich o'neil behind the marine. the pen is the leader of the far right party. she's still from her image in recent years. she's been campaigning very hard on the cost of living

a big issue in this election. nevertheless, agenda remained firmly and t u in the gratian. in fact, she says, if elected, she would make it illegal for muslim women to wear heads golf in public, in from one of the key moments of the week will be a debate between emmanuel micro, i'm reading the pen. we also an analyst. what we can expect in my course, i do this manual micron will try to convince left wing voters who often don't like him to support him and block the far right. he needs to convince them that his policies are also for them, which many on the left dark belief, marina pain, it needs to show. she's changed that she has more experience than 5 years ago and more credible on the economy. and particularly on the big thing of the election that the cost of living for both my cro in the pen campaigning hard for food fail. targeting the many people who are still undecided, as well as left wing voted by promising things like more jobs and more measures to

tackle climate change. still had her on al jazeera, forced to wait to search for the missing rescues in the philippines, need dry conditions to send in heavy machinery and warnings of looming economic crisis in nepal. let it run low on foreign currency. ah, the journey has begun the faithful world copies on its way to catherine book, your travel package to day. now the weather patent over all of europe is slow moving about which means persistence of type is getting warmer and warmer western european. sadly, colder and colder in eastern europe, all circling around this center, which is just the north of germany. so temps is the thing about it has been lovely in london and a long way from london. basically in the north of europe, west of about poland is been nice and warm and these are forecast terms of sunday.

hi tina, this is probably conserved, i think we'll see a few twenties in many places. hash the orange strip leven up here in norway and sweden, you're going to be up in the mountains for to be really cold. otherwise it's quite nice and warm weather wise. traditionally, a long weekend like this has to end wet in the u. k. well, the rain is edge again, but probably gonna break up to be honest. monday. it isn't that bad at all. little bit cooler and a few showers and certainly windy it's gotten but rested north in europe. just enjoy the sunshine except in the east to say poland southwards is the persistent cold winds, though is falling yes, as fast as the place that bulgaria, northern greece or rain in temperatures are definitely on the low side. added opposite that in north africa, particularly libya attempted in the middle. forty's, with a sandstorm at it's still going official ally of the journey in a conflicted world. millions of children are abandoned abused and deprived of their

basic rights and needs. is the international community doing enough? unicef, executive director catherine russell and goodwill ambassador david beckham, talk to al jazeera. we understand the differences and similarities of culture across the world. and i might have when you call home will but you can use in current files that matter to use a oh okay, you what she out 0, her mind about top stories this hour and russia has given ukrainian forces in mario poll and ultimatum to surrender. and leave the besieged city. they have until 10 g

m t to lay down the wrong ukraine has warned, any attack will end peace tools. you created an official say at least one person has been killed. 18 injured by russian missile strikes on the eastern city of cock eve. moscow has been accused of hitting residential areas throughout the war. at least 17 people have been injured off to palestinian worshippers were forcibly dispersed from the all acts of mos compound to people have been arrested. it's rarely forced to say it's in response to palestinians preventing jewish groups from entering. now chris says it successfully testified a new type of tactical guided weapon needed kim jogan watched the launch at an undisclosed location. kim says he's preparing for a confrontation with the united states. 3 weeks ago, the country testified and biggest intercontinental ballistic missile, david said, ne, is a senior associates at the center for strategic and international studies. and he says, this latest test is a wiring development. it comes in the context of north korea carrying up more

missile launches over the past months than it has any period of time. then the last 5 or 6 years, including its largest ballistic missile launched a couple of weeks ago and indications that it's wrapping up in nuclear weapons production facility the same time. there are variety of reasons behind with invest range are doing the election in south can we have a new harder line president. the beginning of u. s. south korean military maneuvers on monday. but in many ways, i think the most koreans are flexing their muscles because they want to be paid attention to. but the word ukraine having fucked up international attention. north korea's used to being seen as a big player, someone who a country that everyone has to pay attention to and to try to do things to propagate. and that it's what sort of fall off the map and the last few months. so i think there's a combination of factors here, but these new capabilities that they're not breathtaking really know it's an

evolution of an existing missile. they can 23. but these evolution look, capacities do show a greater level of threat, particularly to south korea and japan such as are continuing for people, michigan, the philippines. out a tropical storm, meggy struck the island. more than 160 people have been killed and at least 110 are unaccounted for. male allan doug has this report. the government clarifies, there is no plan to stop retrieval operations despite this possibility being discussed on the ground. in fact, they're hoping they see that the weather participates and that if it continues to be sunny, they'll finally be able to bring in heavy equipment and implement a full scale retrieval operations. many believe that hundreds remain buried in many areas of later province. and even for a country often battered by natural disasters, type, when meggy is an unusual occurrence, it is supposed to be the hottest period of the year. and it comes as the province

in particular is still reeling from the impacts of di for rise super typhoon that battered the eastern besides this region. last december, it also comes as millions of families, particularly the thousands who live in late. the province is commemorate to one of the holy week of catholicism, is supposed to be a period where families are getting together to celebrate. instead, many people say there is quite a gloom, a level of grief that has envelopes many communities here. thousands of people have gathered across pakistan in support of our prime minister in red con is on a national campaign and reaffirming his popularity with the public column was removed from office last week after louisiana conference vote. he was replaced by opposition. politician sharp, i shout if come a hider was at one rally in his lunch match rally and the garden board of karachi, where the outer prime minister, amber on, on book 2, tens of thousands of papers from all walks of life, family,

children. and as you can see behind me even head in a clam abad. like all other major screens have been set up that day. the board of the outset dr minute can come and show their support for amber on, on this paper that we've got to believe that there was an international spread it to our prime minister because prime minister around hon registered most golf. now, as you can see, that are counted the paper, even f 9 box, which is the central bargain. islam abad. and a message is loud and clear that enron con, despite it said bag, had made a huge gum bag. politically, people are coming out of large numbers across the country to show dashboard, within just a month's time, there was nothing out. there was no money. so everyone,

every box on the believes that it was the piracy. it was interference in the internal affairs, a bunch of thought there is no doubt about the opposition, maybe to enjoy seeing that there are no back in pockets on government. however, we're taking those are that the wave of popularity against them? how long their government relock is anybody's gay? several people have been injured during a religious festival in, in india. violence broke out between muslim and hinder groups in the capital, new delhi. during this celebration, several police officers were among those wounded. last week, a man was killed during rights at another festival in the state of my dear pradesh . memos minutes region sir, is releasing hundreds of inmates among the buddhist new year. there are no political presidents among those freight families had gathered outside a prison in the capital in the hope of being reunited with their loved ones. houses

protested should be arrested in detail since june to see the path. 14 months ago, lithium has become one of the world's most sought after minerals. it's important to allow countries to switch to renewable energy and is used in batteries, laptops and medicines. surely as the world's 2nd largest producer and a hotspot for international mining companies, looking to cash in on the lithium rush. but as our latin america return, you see a new and reports indigenous communities. se mining threatens aware of life. can the lady a cardoso lives on an oasis, one of the few places in the, at the camera desert, the world's driest, where you can grow something like this. think of is your soda? look at this beautiful beetroot. d gets on bindles as delicious. they super sweet can also is acoya part of an indigenous community that's lived in this arid region for centuries of water to make cheese from their go to milk. and for fruits and

vegetables flows from the and these mountains, the same water that nourishes the nearby mighty conger salt flats. the hills behind me are rich in silver, gold, and especially copper chillies, number one, export. but it's what's underneath these salt flat lithium, that's become one of the world's most valuable minerals and is what truly is counting on for its future development. julie has one of the world's 3 largest reserves of lithium and is 2nd only to australia in terms of total production. but late last year, when the previous government granted to new mining concessions to a chinese and a local consortium, an appeals court suspended the contract on behalf of the coil community of it. but he had toya florida phone gigs if you would impact all of the nature that we have here today, which exists in more than 6000 hector's. we would lose more than we would gain between india. if you look,

the community says war lithium minds will defeat the little water. they have a thea your 2nd illegal to one another. if they tracks the lithium from the salt flats, everything will die. i. water will dry up because the water comes from the same place. in, but that's not the only controversy till his new government wants to create a state own lithium company, rather than ward more contracts to multinationals, so that the profit stay at home. many argue that julie should also expand to producing lithium batteries for everything from mobile phones to electric cars, which is with the real money is that we're but former deputy mining minister and god, blanca warns it's not feasible. important. becky, the lead the lithium batteries contained 8 percent lithium and truly would have to import the remaining 92 percent of material. so it's simply not profitable. also, it takes 10 years for a lithium man to start giving returns on investment while it sets up a state lithium company. the new government must determine how many more if any

concessions will be awarded to multi nationals. in the meantime, if promises to the interests of local indigenous communities, 1st, a tough choice in times of economic hardship. you see a newman mighty whom that chile, while environmental science, professor rennie klein says there's often tension between lithium mining and local communities. so we're, we're completely depend on the boards for not only of the raw materials, but also batteries are largely producing out our country. so we are dependent on, in many ways on the imports related to the production of electric vehicles that can change. i mean, resources is not to be issued have enough action in our, in our underground so to say, so given the religion to be mine. but at the moment are completely dependent on countries like australia, chile, and also china. of course mining is, it's always a big thing to do, let's say in a local surrounding. so there's always

a lot of impacts in terms of a lot of extra let's say this to activities, but also just to see a 5 open pit. mine is very large, often not a product process in germany. the idea of thermal brian is very different. you don't need to lock open bid for that. you can also use the energy that's come from, from the underground, basically to do that in a problem neutral manner. different ways of doing these, and i'm pretty sure that in europe we will take all these mental impacts into accounts when we are fighting you and your projects to nepal, which is showing signs of economic recovery from the pandemic. but it's central bank faces shortage of foreign currency. so the government is asking work is abroad to send more money home from ya to limbo reports from india. the bustling market in downtown. got my do its business of usual shop with crowds doors at the beginning of the new year. but experts was behind all the activity and economic crisis is looming. the, the economic recovery that we have seen is much less compared to other

countries who were similar to hit by. and for example, last 2 years are ours. growth was on the one percent compared to our normal long term ava's off, you know, 9 percent that we should have gotten into years time. during the pandemic, the number of tourists felt the amount of money sent home by napoleon, a broad also dropped significantly. nepalese internationally that isn't particularly high, but as ballooning inputs and high oil prices depleted foreign currency reserves exports will in the country could be headed towards an economy crisis. if the government doesn't step up in time. and there are other pressures i'm going to say to guy, there's been a hike, an oil prices, a leader of petrol, that cost around $100.00 rupees. now costs $160.00 piece. nepal central bank has

taken action to manage import and increased foreign exchange with some kind of the challenge in the economy, particularly because of the import of some of the items. for example, the vehicles, the petroleum products, which are a large portion of the board in nepal. so how we can manage that, that's one of the issues that is struggling in the present context. reducing idea import cars and heavy duty equipment to nepal. and she says it's important for businesses to work with the government, the central bank and business community. we being all completely him import oriented economy. we have a huge trade in balance because we have nothing being exported from here or at least a little being exported from here. so every small change in the world on the globe impacts. and that is why we have these in all these spanish situations every now and.
