facilities block off this industrial area so that not even a fly comes through. but even norma chavez dormer, i know they've captured most of mary paul a long time ago. we are very well aware of that, but there's a part of the city where our service men remain. might have they will stay there for now. so hope this once thriving port city was home to more than 400000 people. now, fewer than $50000.00 are left unable to escape the fighting. as vladimir putin was being told of victory in mary opal, russian back separatist fighters of done yet. and now school was back in session for the 1st time since the invasion on february 24th. according to the don, yet sc people's republic, $721.00 children are going to school and mary opal under its supervision. the separatist say moscow has sent school books for these children, including text books on the russian language and russian history. you arrived,

a cultural center. it will take weeks before all this rubble is removed by the full extent of what happened here is something that's still being discovered on a daily basis. more than 2 weeks after the last russian tank left the town of bora, danica is still coming to terms with his losses. bodies hastily buried are being exempt. this woman finally found her son and his best friend believe to have been killed in the early days of the war. the 3rd body is of a teenage girl who still remains unclouded. but a junker was hid, particularly height, 80 percent of the buildings and houses in the town and surrounding villages are either totally or partially damaged. finding ways to get it back on his feet is a monumental does for may or he, yogi, or co. he has set up shop in the local school because his office was also reduced to rubble. sure. his mission were to boot. we need to get the government

institutions back and find new places to operate from. we have to restore electricity, gas, and water expert, the hope of the dispos, that route we still don't know which buildings will be demolished or repaired. many people don't want to live in the old buildings anymore. get a few streets away. valentina sifting through the remains of her house, her family had lived here for generations. they spent a month crampton debasement only to come out and find the memories of a lifetime gone. i assure, assured that any money at the, for you might need to. i am demoralized i given liver, shooting at the girls, rape and girls, people. i know. i also know people who the executed with their hands tied up after all these. and now how do you want me to find this trends to rebuild my house? with the fighting still going on is difficult to put the price dagger reconstruction. the you estimates it will be in the hundreds of billions of dollars

. but for the people here, no money will be enough to fill this sense of loss or does that hamid algeria under road north of keith, former honduras president, one orlando at mendez has been expedited to the u. s. to face several drugs related charges and, and as is accused of helping to move tons of cocaine into the u. s. foremost 20 years is overcharged. accepting a bribe in the head of a powerful cartel and, and as denies the allegations, the one time u. s. l. i only left office in january after 8 years in power. williamson is, i'm innocent of been submitted unfairly to trial. i want to say some potent woods injustices are a threat to justice in every place. you know, i worked tirelessly with the purpose of recovering peace in honduras. i gave all my to my country. it is regrettable that those who turn on juris into one of the most

violent countries in the world, those villains, they are want to be heroes. and hide is a castro joins us live now from washington dc hydro. so what more do we know about the expedition on the charges that amanda's faces when they are, and we know that hernandez is on a flight now headed to the u. s. expect it to land in florida, in about an hour's time before he heads to new york, where he will face these charges that have now been announced. and the u. s. attorney. not mincing words when saying that hernandez was running calendar as, as a drug state, saying that he used drug money to fuel his political rise, including the $1000000.00 bribe that he allegedly accepted from l. chapa guzman. and in return, helping fuel the u. s. opioid crisis, hernandez and his co conspirators help push 500000 kilograms of cocaine into the united states. that's 500 tons of cocaine poison that landed in this

country on our streets. and as we allege in the indictment, that's exactly what hernandez wanted. realised that during a meeting with a co conspirator, hernandez declared that he wanted and i quote, to stuff the drugs right up, the nose is of the gringo. and what's shocking, as even as these things were allegedly happening, publicly, hernandez was being lauded by the trumpet, ministration as an ally and friend of the us, both in confronting government corruption in honduras. and in helping the us by limiting migration flows out of honduras, and the irony even made further by a 100 and asylum seekers. many of whom said one reason they were fleeing their country was due to their corrupt president. now hernandez, as many critics in honduras, perhaps many had thought that justice was unreachable for their former president.

of course, all of this made possible by his losing the presidential election in november. now he will stand trial in the u. s. and the u. s. is also using this moment to send a message loudly and clearly that it is now engaged more aggressively in confronting corruption in latin america, darryl. all right, so how does your cast with a live in washington dc? how do you think you don't personal break it down to 0? when we come back, we'll tell you about the sudden flare up of volumes across afghanistan this week. and another investigations upon the mc party's bodies. johnson's own colleagues vote in favor of parliamentary inquiry. more than that steamers. ah! away we go with your weather story for the americas. we've got some what weather around the mid west into the ohio river valley and temperatures are surging once

ah, welcome back. quick remind about top stories here. this russia's president has declared victory in the battle for the besieged ukrainian city of matthew pope. putin ordered his troops to see loft, ukrainian soldiers, and civilians prompt and still works, which is the city's last pocket for systems and russian forces, se they've captured 42 villages in ukraine's eastern dumbass region. one ukrainian official confirmed the losses, but said they could be one bath and formal honduran president. llano landa, of numbers has been expedited to the us to face several drugs related charges. one time the u. s. allies accused of helping to move tons of cocaine into the u. s. almost 20 years or more on the war and ukraine, m u. s. president joe biden has pledged another $800000000.00 of military assistance to keep for weapons, ammunition and drones. our white house correspondent kimberly health reports as the

i'm almost exhausted to draw down authority. i have the congress authorized for ukraine. that's why next week biden will ask congress for even more money to continue the flow of weapons. but as for where these weapons go was handed out the white house admit, there's little accountability. the failure to track who is receiving us weapons, alarms, members of the president's own democratic party. congresswoman johan omar last month tweeted, the consequences could be disastrous if weapons are given to paramilitary groups, such as the far right linked as off battalion without accountability. all these weapons also end up in conflicts outside of the country, and this is the, one of the primary concerns. it's really out of the control of the united states. you know, when we provide weapons, we try to ask the countries to agree to use them and control them in certain ways. but ultimately that's not something we can have control over. for decades,

the u. s. government has armed non state groups in iraq, afghanistan, libya, syria, and elsewhere. often with unintended consequences. most recently enough, ghana, stan, weapons supplied by the united states to fight the taliban are now being used by some malicious against civilians to commit human rights violations. the defense department is calculating just how much money the white house will need from congress for weapons for ukraine. whatever the mouth president biden says, the goal is to keep the weapons flowing without interruption. kimberly, how can al jazeera the white house? meanwhile, the prime ministers of spain and denmark of also pledge to send more weapons to ukraine there the latest european leaders to leap ukrainian, president and keith. they also made the trip to borrow a junker outside the capital,

it happened in the northern african city of missouri. sharif report say, 10 people were killed and 40 were injured. i bagged with explosives that was detonated from a distance. i still in afghanistan, say it was behind the bombing the short today, the enemies of afghanistan bought a big massacre to missouri sheriff. unfortunately, as you can see in the p d. 2 area of said the gun of missouri, he should have an explosion occurred which was from closing material. and approximately 25 people were killed and injured in this incident. more valuable and has been fighting groups linked to isolate, since seizing power. last august in separate attacks, several people were killed when an explosion hit a bus carrying airport workers in condos province and fortelli. bon members, died 2 in an explosive device detonated near the car. these attacks come days after 2 blasts outside schools in the sheer neighbourhood of gobble that attack killed at least 6 people. one of the major challenges for the taliban government has been to

provide security. but minority communities continue to live in fear. a sad bag of jersey frances presidential hopefuls held their final rally as ahead of sunday's vote prevalent. a manual macro campaigned in san antonio, north of paris. he's hoping to sway voters who went overwhelmingly to the left in the 1st ballot furnace smith report. this is supposedly hostile territory, very manual mach wrong in the 1st round of france. his presidential election, 49 percent of the vote in sand and he went to the far left candidate, john luke melon shrunk. in the 2nd round, the choice is micron or the far right marine le pen. we feel like we have to choose between the pest and cholera. this woman told the president of the high cost of living is the main concern for french voters and jobs. this woman says nationwide, unemployment has fallen under macro to 7.9 percent. but it's high here at 11

percent service we're creating jobs. micron says before adding it has no magic solution yet. but soon as soon as you. ringback remember, so there are millions of potential melon shown king makers. the far left candidates hasn't himself endorsed macro, though he's told his supporters that should not be a single vote for marine le pen makin also wants to tap the youth vote 31 percent of 18 to 24 year olds voted for john look now are shown to the north of paris, saint anthony is one of the most deprived areas of france. here. macros struggles to shake off his image as president of the rich. but the far right is even more popular. yet backward for there is no other choice. i don't see myself voting for marcella pen because she doesn't reflect my principles. so i'd rather be shot by my colon than martin. she would look like not the but but i work from a kronos time. i don't like what he does, but i'll be voting from a kron as a vote against la pin to moscow, mac i thing micron has already done 110,

and i think to allow continued, he will be more advantageous. the latest polls suggest emanuel micron will win a 2nd term, but he will only keep the presidency with votes. cast grudgingly in his favor. bernard smith, al jazeera saint anthony, and natasha butler's in at us in northern francois marina. the pen has been holding her final campaign run. it was very long que yeah, people waiting right around the block for marine. the pens, final campaign rallies, taking place in iris in north and francis is a region where support for the far right political party is very high. this riley also comes just a day off to a life television debate between the pain and her rival in this race. in my know, my cross, the incumbent, a centrist macro. during the debate accused the pen of being divisive. the pen says that micro has ignored the needs of ordinary people during the 5 years of his

presidency. while there's been a lot of reaction to that debate, many are saying that micro had the upper hand that he gave a more polished performance, but the pen support is here, disagree. most. whose girl cbs? i think she manage a very well. she explained what she knew, some criticized her saying that she didn't know her numbers, but anyone can make up numbers or pardon me, discipline compared to 2017, she changed the tables return to this time. micron was angry. i marine state tom. ah, well, as marina pan arrived on stage, they was a lot of enthusiasm from supposed to see a who believe that she can be on his next. the president marilla payment spent the last 2 weeks campaigning. very hard trying to target left when voters who don't have a natural candidate in the selection, but also trying to persuade many people and frogs who are still and decided he is promising to help people to reduce the cost of living. that is a big issue with some campaign to promising jobs has promised to soon wilkins from

people. i say he's going to the manual. michael doesn't understand ordinary people, but the he does. he should leave really give 5 more years to a president. he shrugged his shoulders in the face of mass immigration and anarchy . he's allowed who shrug his shoulders when we talk about crime and savagery, that tis the flesh of our citizen hall suggests that emmanuel micro has white and his leader in this election rates. not necessarily because folks just say that they want to vote for it, but some versus the saying that they will not bring the pen. they tell you that i've seen the breaking the law agenda will be to device, differ from the support, fear of nothing had decided, but the race isn't a british prime minister barak johnson set to face a parliamentary investigation into the so called party gates scandal. johnson's been under pressure after being fined for breaking his own government's pandemic.

restrictions with parties held up downing street journal reports from london. i have the motion went through on the nord, in parliamentary speak unopposed. not requiring a vote, triggering an inquiry into the possibility, the boris johnson lied to empties about lockdown parties in downing street and amendment aimed at covering the motion was removed on thursday morning. apparently it made government fears of a large scale rebellion by its own. m p's, who didn't wish to be seen as blocking parliamentary scrutiny, the head of local elections next month. instead, someone found it hard to contain their distaste. i have to say, i'm sorry for not paying for letter and spirit, and i think we have heard that the prime minister didn't know what the letter was. the prime minister now should belong. go back to speak off. certainly vote for this motion, but really the prime minister should just know to get profoundly disappointed in what happened that number 10, dining street people were bad, the let down,

my constituents feel bad the let down. i feel personally bad be let down my wall tatol and there must be consequences that follow from that shot indeed ha ha, ha, ha ha. the prime minister on a visit to india said he had nothing to hide. i'm very good. let me just say, i'm very keen for every possible full move of scrutiny. and if the house comes can do, i think whatever it wants to do. but all i would say is, i don't think that that should happen until the investigation is completed. and that's my only point. i said, i said there's time and time again. let's get the, let's let the, the investigators do that stuff. boris johnson has already been fined by the metropolitan police were attending a downing street event, his own birthday party. in fact, in breach of coke with 19 lockdown rules parliament's privileges committee made up

of 7 cross party em fees will begin its inquiry only after the police investigation is over. it will look at whether boris johnson deliberately misled and faced lie to them. in other words, when he said back in december that no covert 19 rules had been broken. remember, he maintains that he believes, then he had not broken any rules that defense could within. if, as expected, johnson receives up to 3 more fines for other events, among more than a dozen under investigation, the privileges committee would have access to much of the evidence. the police have relied upon including hundreds of photographs. he is already the 1st serving prime minister to have been sanctioned by the police for breaking the law while in office . now for his johnson is set to become the 1st in recent times to be investigated for lying to parliament. finding if it comes that could force his resignation. jonah hall al jazeera with another 4000000 people have been allowed to leave their

brought home if he was coach dealing brittany longest serving monarch his celebrating her 96th birthday. ah, there been events across the u. k to on a queen elizabeth the 2nd, including a performance of happy birthday during the changing of the guard at windsor castle . ah, i have a quick check on the headlines here on al jazeera. russia's president is declared victory in the battle to be besieged. ukrainian city of matthew polt, vladimir putin ordered his troops to see love the cranium. soldiers and civilians trapped on a steel works, which is the cities last pocket of resistance. but i'm sure which to me, citizen, i consider the proposed storming of the industrial area, pointless. i ordered to a bought it. this is the case when we must think that.
