villages in ukraine's eastern dumbass region. one ukrainian official confirmed the losses, but said that could be one back. i'm politicians in china discussing revisions to a law protecting women's rights. as follows, angus bought by a viral video showing the apply to a mentally disabled woman traffic to the country se not former honduras president one, orlando, amanda. it has been extradited to the us to face drug trafficking charges. a nowadays is accused of helping to move tons of cocaine for almost 20 years. the one time us alive denies the allegations. teresa report, he was ones at close united states ally, but has now been expedited to face drug trafficking charges in new york city. i went online, not a man. this was being held at a special forces military base in on the west capital t a was he guided by he was transferred in the middle of a massive security operation to an air force airport where he was taken in
5:18 am
a u. s. drug enforcement agency plane, back to the u. s. he's accused of conspiring to smuggle hundreds of tons of drugs to the united states. 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. realized that during a meeting with a co conspirator, hernandez declared that he wanted and i quote to stuff the drugs right up the noses of the gringos at madness says he's innocent and that justice will prevail. williamson is on innocent of been submitted unfairly to trial. i want to say some potent words, injustices are a threat to justice in every place. you know,
5:19 am
i worked tirelessly with the purpose of recovering peace in honduras and i gave all my to my country. it is regrettable that those who turn honduras into one of the most violent countries in the world, those villains may want to be heroes. when orlando or man, this was elected president in 2014, while in office, he was considered partner of the us and was loaded for his alleged efforts to fight drug trafficking, any legal migration. his mandate ended earlier this year and was the pain 900 days after leaving office, his brother tonia man. this was sentenced to life in prison in the us on drug trafficking charges. during his brothers trial, prosecutors claimed mexican drug lloyd. what king chapel was man handed, the man this brothers $1000000.00 for the presidential campaign. losing on do the same. corruption has infiltrated the highest levels of under the state and they need international help to clean it up. with the concentration of power we saw
5:20 am
while hernandez was in office, we can all institutions and the country now needs to repair. we need to do lots of structural reforms to improve our delivery. we have requested help from the u. n. to help us do this. at and then this expedition is the 1st time a former president is to be tried on drug trafficking charges in the us. many fear that the possibility of a u. s. trial will deter politicians in the region from polluting with criminal organizations ever again. that is, i will i just pita. so let's bring in harry lindman. he's a former us attorney, join us from la jolla in california. harry, this is a spectacular fall from grace for the former on doing president. amanda was one of washington strongest allies in central america. how significant do you think this extradition is? it's pretty big there and look. the 1st of the main point is that the honduran government itself approved it. the supreme court approved it and then they sent him
5:21 am
out. but the scope of the charges are enormous. $500.00 tons, millions of dollars. the department of justice basically said he was running a narco state. you're right. initially, it looked as if he could be an ally in drug interdiction. and he became, according to an indictment about the worst a perpetrator of drug sales. as a and honduras became the number one hub for cocaine landing on the streets of the usa. so, you know, apart from the fact that he was the president, which is a very big deal, obviously he's being treated as and the indictment as a simple drug, lord, the way guzman might have been his brother might have been. and he is really looking at the serious prospect of ending his life. he's 53 years old now. yeah, united states prison and how he, that's an important point to make because as you say, honduras has become a major transit point for drugs coming from south america. to the united states,
5:22 am
what sort of impact do you think is a rest we'll have on the u. s. war and drugs on the broader drug trade them well, is that a tough line? because we've made very big arrests before and the truth is, the pipeline just continues. this is a huge one. and if, if hot and duras were shut down, it would make it harder. it would make cocaine on the streets more expensive. but i was a federal prosecutor for many years, i believe in the operation of the da, et cetera. but to say that even a huge case like this will at will actually shut down a drug use or make it substantially harder to obtain cocaine on the streets. that's . that's a tough a lot and tall order that i wouldn't want to hazard an hour. you mention hernandez, his brother tony. he was given a life sentence last year and the u. s. a drug trafficking, how deep then were the family connections in the drug trade because u. s. prosecutor say, look, both brothers were involved. that's right. and he got
5:23 am
a life sentence and they're actually 2 other cases in which his guilt with, in respect to other trials, was actually established. how deep as deep as can be. i mean, it's a family operation on the one hand, but it's also of course, appropriate in the entire government apparatus of honduras that that includes the law enforcement institutions, the judicial institutions for this indictment, it's less about the deep root and brands, corruption in honduras, which i think has made him very popular there and just more about the huge impact on the streets of new york and around the country. but it's just a norm final point to you because i'm running out of time. i mean, hernandez says look, he's innocent and the charges are based on information fabricated by drug traffickers that his government had previously arrested. what happens next and briefly how, how, how does the trial proceed from here? then what happens, it happens in new york is
5:24 am
a rain to morrow and while they'll have witnesses, he'll be able to show the the whole case, including probably people who call who are cooperating. so you know, good luck to him, but he has a right to to contest it. but i think they almost certainly have a very strong case or in it been really good to get your insight into this thanks bye, much for talking to la da 0. thank you. thanks. they're not police in the us. city of syracuse are under fire off the detaining an 8 year old african american boy who was allegedly caught stealing chips from a store and east of release body cam. video of the incident. they say the boy was not handcuffed and was never under arrest the off season, both have been accused of racial profiling. he officers responded to this 91 complaint of a larceny in progress. located the child who was doing didn't handcuff him, didn't arrest him, didn't take him to jail. we don't do that. what they did do is call him by name and take him home to his father, then stand in the street and have a long discussion with them. i personally don't know any parent who would want to
5:25 am
know that their child was stealing. i dont know any parent who would want their child brought home if he was caught stealing. now winds fanning the flames of a while fi and the u. s. state of arizona are expected to get stronger. thousands of people have been forced to fee their homes and dozens of structures have been destroyed. officials say at nearly 7000 heck, tenths of in scorched in the northern county of coconino. the fire started on sunday afternoon and it's sizes tripled since then. now it's earth day, a world wide event that celebrates our planets, biodiversity and highlights ways of protecting the world. we live in an environmental degradation on the ongoing climate emergency means the need to act now is greater than ever is our environment editor, clocks, planet, earth. that's home and as i say there is no planet b and time is running out to protect it. here's why. this is the man alert observatory in hawaii, whether be monitoring global carbon dioxide levels for more than 60 years. and when they started back in 1958, scientists recorded c o 2 levels of 316 parts per 1000000. this month,
5:26 am
they're likely to top $420.00 parts per 1000000. and that's never been seen before in all human history. and the science is now undisputed fossil fuel emissions are to blame. mankind is responsible pushing temperatures outwards and increasing the number of extreme weather events from deadly heat waves and droughts to catastrophic floods, such as these in the past week in south africa, which killed more than 440 people. and the call for action is growing. we needs to increase our investment employment adaptation measures to better serve god communities against the effects of climate change. indeed, the most recent united nations reports that there must be rapid, deep and immediate cuts and greenhouse gas emissions. but the question is, will the world act and what the un chief antonio terrorist called a code read for humanity, disused oil and gas wells around the world have been
5:27 am
a source of greenhouse gas emissions for decades. since the fossil fuel era began, millions of wells have been drilled, but many, whenever, probably sealed after they stop being used, rentals are pushed from the u. s. state of a higher methane gushes from a well dug more than a century ago and abandoned since the 1950s. 141 cubic meters of pungent greenhouse gas per day. it was recently uncovered in cleveland, ohio, in an apartment complex for elderly, low income residents, many of whom have complained of the smell for years. did you ever sell the gas? yeah, but as is smelled it more than i did, but it was definite. it didn't list often. now a team from the non profit, well done foundation is hard at work plugging the leaky well for good. when we're done and we're walking off of the product that we've stopped the emission of 5000
5:28 am
cubic feet of gas per day. you know, you start to multiply that by, by weeks and months in decades. it's very significant. abandoned wells are a huge problem by government estimates, there are more than 2000000 of them in the u. s. and possibly many more who's locations are no longer known by some estimates. they admit more than $7000000.00 metric tons of greenhouse gases per year. that's the equivalent of burning 30000000 leaders of petrol. this is kind of low hanging fruit if you would. so this is an area that we can take immediate action. so far, curtis shocks, non profit organization has plugged 16 abandoned wells in 4 states. methane is such a, an incredibly harmful greenhouse gas. it is 80 times as destructive as c o 2. and so if you want to have an immediate impact, ah,
5:29 am
you'd just stop it. many of the wells that well done has plugged ari in open fields . the cleveland well project is different. we have elderly folks who live right around it. that's a tricky location to rig up on, and it's a tricky location to get into. the expert crew applies a seal to the outflow pipe and welds it shut. next they'll drill down to clear debris and dirt out of the pipe, extending far below the surface. in the final step, the crew will fill the well with especially formulated kind of the men sealing it up forever. and that one well down to 1000000 to go for shop each plugged well is a triumph hardy, a climb a mountain. it's, you know, one step at a time. that's really the bogus is then that way. it becomes something that we can really get our hands around and celebrate a victory for the crew, the community, and for the planet. rob reynolds, al, jazeera,
5:30 am
cleveland ohio. now the drums are finally beating again at brazil's well famous carnival. profess devotees in rio de janeiro are in full swing after being suspended for 2 years because of the corona virus pandemic. initially, authorities band individual parties on the sidelines of the main event. the man now says he was deploy police to stop ah, type a quick check of the headlines here on al jazeera. russia's president has declared victory in the battle for the besieged, ukrainian city of matter. you pull. fatima putin ordered his troops to see loft, ukrainian soldiers and civilians trapped in a steel works, which is a city's last pocket of resistance promotions in which turn the city. so i consider the proposed storming of the industrial area, pointless. i order to a bought it. this is the case when.
