deliberately continues to destroy cities. it is deliberately trying to destroy everyone who is there in mario for there are only 2 which influenced us. either our partners will give you korean all the necessary heavy weapons of plains and without exaggeration, immediately so that we can reduce the pressure of the occupiers on murray for an unblock it or a negotiating path in which the role of partner should also be decisive. correspondence in ukraine and russia, and a moment we're going to hear from the, at the meet who's in the v forest. first, we're going to get an update from moscow with dawson, jabari dos. what are the russians saying about this deadline? when the deadline has just passed and they said that this is at the defense ministry, official say, this is an opportunity for those are what they call foreign mercenaries that have as surround that this plants in mary opal 2 at surrender and laid out their arms.

the russians believe there is at least $400.00 of them in and around that area. this plant, and this is a plant that it is in a very large area in mariel builds a very large infrastructure. it is one of the largest steel plants in europe and it is full of a railway tracks as well as various buildings. now, the russians say that they have cleared the urban areas of mario full. and now this is the last and final area in the city that they're going to be taking control of. and they've given this opportunity for the fighters to lay down their arms and surrender. the defense ministry also saying that they have a announced that they are intention of completing this a ceasefire time period within the relevant international bodies, including the united nations, as well as the international committee for the red cross. they want to make sure that what happens next is very clear to the international community in terms of

that they've given the opportunity for those fighters to surrender. now, of what is not clear is exactly how many in total there are in terms of ukrainian military personnel. at the russian saying that just this past week, over 1400 ukrainian as soldiers surrendered to the russian forces in mary opal. and they had taken control, 1st of the port of mariel full earlier last week. and they are now saying that they have at cleared the urban areas in there. now this a looking at this final plants area in the city to complete the takeover of mario pool, which is of course, a very significant i city for the russians. this means that this would be their 1st official victory in this so called special military operation, which began on february 24th. and it would also enable the russian troops to form a land corridor from crimea, which russia annexed in 2014, all the way across to the dumbass region. in eastern you crate out at the defense

minister. also saying that in mary jo pull, they have now been able to free a number of turkish citizens who, according to the russians, were held captive hostage by a number of mercenaries in a mosque in that city. if we remember earlier in march, the turkish governments said that they wanted the assistance of the russian minister, defense ministry to be able to evacuate their citizens. initially, we had heard that the turkish citizens had taken shelter in this mosque because of the heavy fighting that was on going in the city at the time. and now the russians a changing that narrative to saying that they were being held captive by foreign mercenaries as they call them. and that to they've managed to free those hostages at the request of the turkish presidents and the in the process. they have killed 29 fighters, dorsal thank you very much of the dosage or body bringing us up to date for moscow . want to bring in all the of the honeyed who's joining us of from living. so the

deadline has apparently passed. how is you chrome reacting to this deadline? well, actually, very little is coming out of a keybo officials there about this deadline, about an eventual surrender or not. what we do know is that on saturday evening president video zalinski did say that the situation was there very difficult for the ukrainian forces on the ground. he did say, and i'm quoting him, our guys are blocked and they have no food. no, there's no way to get treatment to the wounded. so certainly that's a way of acknowledging that there is at least some sort of presence that is a military presence underground. ukrainian military presence. that is, what would seem to be besieged, probably in that as steel factory, the as of steel factory, which is south of the city of mer you,

paul. now the number of soldiers in debt is not clear. russia had said at some point that it estimated about 2500 were in there. that would be a mixture of the $36.00 battalion of the ukrainian army. and of course, the as of regiment which has been operating on the ground in moore. you pull in coordination with the ukranian as security forces, but whether they actually heeded that quote from moscow to surrender. oh not is something we don't know about. we tried actually to reach our sources in my you pull up there in the as of regiment. we haven't heard back from them yet, so we won't be able to update you about the situation there. but in the past, when we spoke to them, many would say that they would drag of fight until the bitter and then surrender. and certainly what we've seen happening in mo, you pull over to,

but ever since this war started really is that the fight has been very difficult. according to you. 20000 civilians have died in mo, you, bull. the city is still in a dire condition, even though the russians are in the city center, but there is do no water. there's no electricity. and it has been very difficult to organize a humanitarian corridor. the deputy prime minister did say that they won't be any to day, not only out of my youth but also out of other cities in easton ukraine. and i was add that just as daughter was saying, where you pull is very important and many here would tell you that the rushes really are trying to take full control of my you books before that expected. a big push in eastern ukraine in the dumbass area. of which president vladimir putin has been talking about ever since the beginning of the war. this war has started actually in the name of protecting the ethnic russians and the russian speakers in

the boss, according to president vladimir putin. and we, as we have seen, it's true to russian troops really putting out of the camp area for the out of the north of ukraine answered of trying to, to regroup in eastern ukraine. but many would tell you without my, you pull, nothing else will happen. nothing significant as i would rather would happen because the rushes do need more you to create that land corridor from which they can link really they don't. bus area to crimea in crimea does a large military presence of the russians. and they also now control the had sun region which is north of crimea. so coming out of crimea, they can just cross the histone region and hook up into multiple and beef up that military presence dancers. and he back up to separate is who do regard to numbers region as their he historical a territory. and who do say according to their constitution,

that it should be the of borders really? of those jew self proclaimed republics of done yet can lucas, which russia actually has now officially recognized at the onset of this war. how to thank you very much indeed. that's harder homie talking to some levine my russians followed through and tried to launch more long range of zacks following the sinking of its black sea flagship. the moskva is charles trotted reports from the capital grains. as the russians have targeted 8 regions in the past 24 hours with artillery in this house. the aftermath of yet another russian missile strike in court give this mainly russian speaking city, ukraine's 2nd largest, the stop at some of the worst shillings since roches invasion. holden, 7 weeks ago until march of c services say at least one person was killed and many more injured in this attack. the cause the fire to spread into residential areas.

5 of them were taken to the hospital and a total of 800 people, according to the israeli police, have been arrested 4 of them for vandalizing the buses carrying the jewish visitors . israeli police say that early this morning, they went inside the compound because quote palestinian rioters were amassing rocks and stones and creating or attempting to create barricades that were, would have prevented the jewish visitors from accessing the compound through the designated gate. these railways actually have a key and do restrict access to that specific gate, but the police stress at no time during this tense period were muslims not allowed to continue worshiping. a note about the people who are inside. we saw men, women, boys and girls. these are jews who are settlers, who are members of ultra nationalists and zionist groups. they believed that they

have the right to pray on the site. the temple mount of the holy site for jews is also within the ox, a compound. and in recent years, this group, once on the fringes, has been growing and numbers has become more vocal and has even gained. the backing of several is really politicians. but for now again, they are only allowed to go inside the compound and wander around. they are not allowed to pray. that would be considered a grave prop provocation. natasha, thank you very much indeed. this natasha got him talking to us from occupied east jerusalem. let me plenty more head on the news r, including the forced to wait to search for the missing rescues in the philippines. need, dryer conditions to send and heavy machinery a show of support. pakistan's ousted prime minister grows on a nationwide charm offensive on liverpool. find out who they'll play in the afaik

help final peter's going to have the story in the sport. ah, north korea says it successfully testified. a new type of tactical guided weapon is kim jong and says he's preparing for a confrontation with the united states. the leader watched the launch at an undisclosed location that followed the launch of what was reported to be the north largest intercontinental ballistic missile. 3 weeks ago. david said me at the center for strategic and international studies says it's a worrying development. it comes in the context of north korea carrying out 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

a variety of reasons behind with and what we are doing the election in south can we have a new harder line president, the beginning of us, south korean military maneuvers on monday. a. 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 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 in 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 luc capacities do show a greater level of threat, particularly to south korea and japan searches and continuing for people missing in the philippines after tropical. so maggie struck the islands more than 160 people

but he's still struggling to shake his reputation amongst thumb. that he is a president who favors the rich. on the other hand, marine the pen is the leader of the far right party. she's dolphins, her image in recent years. she's been campaigning very hard on the cost of living a big issue in this election. nevertheless, jen to remain firmly and t u in the gratian. in fact, she says, if elected, she would make it illegal for muslim women to wear. a head scarf 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 all want analyst, what we can expect my course, i couldn't do mental l. mccray, i will try to convince later when 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 theme of the election

that the cost of living for both micro and 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. somalia is the most dangerous country in africa to be a journalist, more than 70 who are being killed there in the last 30 years. and rights group said the situation is getting worse. web reports from organ issue. but think of some of the new way, lee, with lucky to survive being shot in the stomach by policemen. the bullet also fractured his arm. he says he was targeted last year on his way home because of his work as a new camera man said this tv station cooled group duke, which is known for broadcasting, critical views of somali as government journalists working here, say they often harassed or targeted somalia, somalia, is the worst place to be a journalist?

somalia, thousands of people have gathered across pakistan in support of us, the prime minister in milan con. he's on a national campaign, and it reaffirming his popularity with the public. com was removed from office last week after losing no confidence vote. it was replaced by opposition. politicians. chavez, shirley's hydra was at one rally in islamabad. a massive rally and the garden for her day of karachi, where the outer prime minister emer on, on both do tens of thousands of people from all walks of life, family, the elderly, the children, and as you can see behind me even head in their clam abad. like all other major cities screens have been set up for that day. the border of the outer dr minute can come and show their support. for enron, han, these people that we've spoken to believe that there was an international can spread it. they do out the prime minister because prime minister ron con,

registered moscow. now as you can see, there are thousands of people and even here and f, 9 bach with bogging islam abroad. and the message is loud and clear that enron con, despite the bag, had made a huge, come back. politically, people are coming out in large numbers across the country. you're sure there's a board within just a month time, there was nothing, everything was normal. so everyone, every field focused on the believes that it was a spin spider. see, it was a interference in the internal affairs of pakistan. didn't know about the opposition, maybe to george saying that demo back in august on the government. however, that's clear. taking those off that the wave of what your latter did against them. how long there's government loss. is anybody gay?

so i had an al jazeera warnings of like much, but underneath the salt flats like lithium, which is at the center of a conflict over pu, should own one of the sources of the biggest wealth in this country. and warnings of a looming economic crisis in the paul is at one's low on foreign currency. colorado avalanche clench the top seed in the western conference. peter is going to show you how he did it in sport. ah, now the weather patent over all of europe is slow moving about which means persistence of type is getting warmer and warmer western europe. and sadly, colder and colder in eastern europe, all circulation around this center, which is just the north of germany. so temperature 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 has been nice and warm and he's the forecast of sunday. hi tina. this is probably conserved, i think we'll see a few twenties in many places here. the orange strip leaving up here in norway and sweden, you're going to be up in the mountains for to be really cold, otherwise is 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 going to break up to be honest. monday. isn't that bad at all? a little bit cooler and a few showers and certainly windy and scott and, but rested north in europe. just enjoy the sunshine except in the east to say poland southwards is the persistent cold wind. snow is falling. yes. as fast as the place let bulgaria, northern greece or rain in temperatures are definitely on the lower side. added opposite that in north africa, particularly libya attempted in the middle. forty's, with a sandstorm at it's still going ah,

the, from the al jazeera london broker center t people, unprompted uninterrupted, witnessing a much more humane results. what's up to the ukrainians than what has been meet without to least non european produce taught wanna do. is that gonna offer you out to aim? if somebody comes to gonna from europe, then never call of an immigrant, even if they go through exactly the same processes that we go through to come here . they're always known as an ex pat studio, be unscripted on al jazeera african story from african perspective. nick conditions select wireless, cause your response to not once in a short documentary, from african filmmakers from booking a fossil and head for me, it's really important to teach. suppose it comes and do something that i can be

proud of. the painter and she himes page africa direct on al jazeera. ah ah, you want to know the 0 reminder of our top stories. this palestinian worshippers have been forcibly dispersed from the all oxen mosque compact. 19 people have been injured. at least 9 has been arrested, is where the police left the area, the russian deadline for ukrainian forces to lay down their arms and leave the port city of mario paul passed around half an hour ago. ukraine's president is wanting any attack on the city will end peace talks. ukraine says russian stripes on the eastern us if you can't keep killed at least one person,

an injured 18 others throughout the war. russian forces have been accused of bombarding residential areas with artillery and missiles. let's get more on the war in ukraine with alexander of both harvard. he's editor in chief at swiss military review and he's joining us from geneva. so it's very good to have you with us on al jazeera, given the importance that mario poll seems hold. what do you make of the ukrainian support that has been given to the soldiers and the fighters who have been trying to defend it? my opponent is an extremely decisive place, a decisive area because i owning my own for the russians, who mean a territorial continuity. and therefore during the negotiations and agreements will of course, take place. at the end of hostilities, it will be absolutely indispensable for russia to gain this territorial continuity

in order to be able to break off the secessionist republish from your credit. are you surprised, given the fact that we, it is very difficult to get information out of ukraine for all the obvious reasons, but a what you make rather of the way that the ukrainians have responded to the threat to mario paul, one would imagine from an outsider's point of view that the ukrainians would have turned all their attention to defending that singularly important city. and yet one gets the impression that the fighters, they are, are pretty much on their own. is that correct? or can you give me an assessment? they are pretty much on their own, and it is extremely difficult to be able to bring more supplies and more weapons to the people who are to the units that aren't defending or because of course the russian pressure is not only exercise on the city itself, but also all the axis that would allow for any reinforcement to, to,

to get to my so the ukrainian strategy has not been to put all of its assets, all of its defenses in the town, but also keep a very, very strong, if you want to call it a 2nd line, which has been holding very strongly despite fierce russian attacks in the past few weeks. in the event that russia does take control of maria poll. do you anticipate that the ukrainians will munch an effort to retake it from russia or do you think it will be more an effort of containment? it will be containment because ukraine has managed to age at least 4 very impressive mechanized counter attacks in the car kitchen area. so that is north of the area that we are talking about. and they haven't been quite successful in these offensive operations. contrary to what some experts

would have to believe the onset of the war. however, the military potentials or combined arms or fair in the ukrainian military. and that will require large units and substantial intelligence, substantial higher power. the ability for the crating military to mount such an operation today is much more limited than it was perhaps 2 or 4 weeks ago. our correspondent out here in the program was telling us that had been reports. the 1400 fighters had, allegedly ukraine fighting on behalf of ukraine had allegedly surrendered in previous days. how likely is it, do you think that those left in the city are going to give up the wrongs? i think it is very much a desperate defense. if you will, but reinforcing these fighters with more men and, and more equipment is not going to make such

a substantial change. and i think that instead of focusing all of the efforts on my new product, there are a number of other key strategic points along the front line that ukraine's also need to keep in mind and, and reinforce at this time. and this is in particular the pocket what is becoming now a pocket of is you, that's north of lou hans where also a lot of reinforcements from the ukranian military are pouring at the moment to avoid a military disaster. we should lose sight of the fact that, of course, the russia does have another incentive for getting money to pull. it needs a victory in this doesn't, it is true. and if you want to, to look at it in this way, it's like a game of chess, or it's a like a game where plan a has failed. and that was, can plan b was to, was to take the secessionist republics. and unfortunately, despite

a lot of effort and a lot of firepower, the front line, the contact line has not moved by a significant amount of time. and russia is still trying to, to, to make good these gains. and then the 3rd objective of russian military has been to try and in circle as many of the large mechanize of ukrainian military east of the metro rivers. and this is also ongoing at this time with little success on the russian side. very interesting to get your expertise in this, so thank you very much. indeed. that's alexandra a vote. however i q. pop francis has made an emotional appeal for the end of the war in ukraine during his traditional eastern sunday address. she apache le murdidlier though, lena? let there be peace for war torn ukraine so sorely tried by the violence,

so sorely tried by the violence and the destruction of the cruel and senseless walk into which it was dragged. in this terrible might of suffering death, maitland, new dawning of hope, soon appeared. let that be a decision for peace. let that be an end to the flexing of muscle with people suffering. we please, please, let's not get used to war. lithium has become one of the most sought after minerals crucial for the transition to renewable energy and used in batteries, laptops and even in medication. chilly is the world's 2nd largest producer and a hot spot for international mining companies. looking to cash in. but as our latin america editor, lucy newman reports indigenous communities, say mining threatens their way of life. can the lady 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 individual. so deaf look at this beautiful

beetroot d got some bindles as delicious, a super sweet can. russell is acoya, part of an indigenous community that's lived in this arid region for centuries. the water to me, cheese from there, go to milk and for food 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 it's what chile is counting on for its future development. chilly 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 oil afloat, phone exit. he would impact all of the nature that we have here today, which exists in more than $6000.00 hector's. we would lose more than we would gain between india. if you look, the community says more lithium mines will defeat the little water. they have a thea your 2nd illegal to one another. if they extract the lithium 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 chile should also expand to producing lithium batteries for everything from mobile phones to electric cars, which is with a real money is that but former deputy mining minister and god, blanca warns it's not feasible. important,

becca. the lead the lithium batteries contained 8 percent lithium, until you would have to import the remaining 92 percent of materials. it's simply not profitable. also, it takes 10 years for a lithium on 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, it promises to the interests of local indigenous communities. first, a tough choice in times of economic hardship. you see in human medical that chile 15 people have dined worldwide due to the covered 1900 pandemic. that's 9000000 more than previously thought. and that's according to a yet to be released, world health organization study were reported in the new york times. the newspaper says it's been delayed because of objections from india, for 1000000 of the additional dest happened. they're making the total 8 times as

many as officially recorded. well, let's bring in, i'll come in ski. he's an economist who's advised the world health organization on cobra, 1900 mortality rates. and he's joining us from tell of a very good to have you with us or on. i'll just get it. i understand that your focus has predominantly been on the data that has been coming into you. it strikes me that a lot of the things that we have seen about data related to call the deaths, particularly over the last couple of years. i've been down to the, the interpretation. how much of that has been a problem in terms of pulling together all the data that you've been seeing? i don't think for me, it's actually not interpretation. you know, governments around the world have been transmitting. they're reported to corporate beth, and case of the w, jo and the other both that we all know where good, well by now, the issue in the many countries differ and how they verify a call with deaf and even a covert case. and they of course differ in their capacity to even just administer

the test. so the number of reported code with deaf that you might see on the john hopkins, that blogger on the w h o, that is simply and comparable between countries, especially countries from different continents or development levels. how difficult has that made your job when you're dealing with different? as you say, different categorizations if you're like of deaths that have been linked in some way to covered this is the exact reason why i w a commission this expert group that i'm a member of which you have to look at. it's sort of a simpler measure, but are much more robust measure for a comparison across country than cos. time would you have access mortality. so if you'd ask yourself, you know, how many people died in the family flu, that was of course, no r, c, d testing, or swab testing back then for the family flu. the number of people who died in previous been damaged both in the 20th century and before that we know death

because unfortunately when i put them in psych depth are above and beyond what you would expect under our normal time. you know, we usual day in our 100 people died during play time. it might be $150.00 people and the 50 plus people are what we call access. mortality would have been unfortunate term, but it's, it's the scientific term that we use here. i was reading that the w. rachel has acknowledged that they're using their figure 6 out of 10 deaths globally on registered. any way one would imagine again, trying to get some sort of a legitimate iraqi figure is going to be extremely difficult when you don't have those registrations. does this the data that you're putting together? does that give an indication or, or do you think that might help the w h o to encourage governments to have a standardized process for registering death? i really hope that a silver lining. it, you can call it that would be for governments to vitally improve their vital

registration system. many countries in latin america have been undergoing this reform in the past few years, which give us really an unparalleled insight into what's been going on there. but many countries, in se, asia pacific and africa still register only a fraction of, of total deaf and also in countries and do register most of deaths like egypt like india. like many other big countries cause of death attribution is even harder. you, mike register. most of the deaths or if 100 and of the best it occur. but a lot of them we can really use the cause of death on the certificate to gain any knowledge about you know, how to prevent stuff from occurring and in the developed world be sort of the source of estimates have been, have been extremely vital for health for health, our company, improving life expectancy for the 20th and 21st century. as i mentioned before that

apparently this report was delayed, at least in part because there were concerns from india about the way that the data was being presented, or at least the data itself. that was, that was being presented one, but imagine though, when you're assess is kind of thing the longer you have, the better you are able to actually re analyze the data so that if there isn't a delay. in fact, one would imagine that the, the ultimate results you're getting are perhaps even more accurate. would that be fair? yeah, that's true. that the lay we've had caused us to shift our estimation time from up to the end of june 2021 to up to the end of 2021. and then the partner who we got more data from more countries around roles and also from more data from india, much of it collected by local researchers and journalists, either employing household surveys, or simply submitting right to information request for various local governments. and they simply give out you to love come because they are bound by the number of

deaths that they have registered to fame may 2021, which was unfortunately the peak koby the wave back in india. ira kolinski, we really appreciate you being with us and i'll just either so thank you very much indeed for your time. thank you. paul is showing signs of economic recovery from the pandemic, but its central bank faces a shortage of foreign currency. the government's asking, what is abroad to send more money home. i've got to limbo reports from cup and do in this bustling market in downtown. got my do it business as usual shop with crowds doors at the beginning of nepal, 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, you know, who were similar to hit by. and for example, last 2 years, our growth was on the one percent compared to our normal long term average off,
