6:04 pm
their reports, to residential buildings, we hit residential areas and to military facilities, no more noble news on that as yet. but obviously a very worrying development, seeing as a desa has relatively speaking, remained very quiet indeed since this war started. meanwhile, with respect to mary full, of course, the besieged city in the south east. we have had no confirmation from the ukrainian government as yet as to whether that corridor or that was being hoped to, to be set up to day to get out some of the which estimated to be around a 1000 civilians trapped in that steel plant. no confirmation as to whether that actually even started. and of course that would not be a surprise. have been repeated, attempts to try and get the civilians out of that plant. that is still being defended by what is being reported as being around a 1000 ukrainian forces. and we understand that has been fighting in that area
6:05 pm
today. well, ukraine's president said on friday that our lives have finally delivered much needed weapons or habits in boots or outside the capital gift, where there are signs of the damage local forces inflicted on russian time. now i just want to show you where i am now. i'm in a sort of a graveyard of military equipment. look at all this file of twisted metals. we are told that all of this is russian ties and russian armored vehicles that were heads while waiting to try to reach keith. if you remember that there was that very low convoy that was stopped by d ukrainian. it shows you that ukraine is off putting up a fight. but president zelinski himself is say, at the shooting point, we cannot deny the strength of russia. we could be out numbered, we could be out a gun, which is basically what's happening, for example,
6:06 pm
with those ukranian forces that have now hunker down in that the factory south of you for president zalesky says to avoid so situations we need to have more and more weapons to be able to defend of so because this is not all of russian strength, yes, ukraine is able to hurt russia, but it's not able to and it's military power pressure that you have among them. for example, there's this church and just see on this. so you can see it's written had the wrong, that's the name of the judge and leader, a lot of this equipment had a v written in white on it. that's also the, as an indication that the churches were approaching key will be those fighters and known to be fear as fighters. so ukraine knew as much help as possible when all the while diplomatic efforts continue, the head of the u. n. is due to travel to ukraine on thursday to meet president for
6:07 pm
the mentor lensky. first, antonio tears will head to moscow for talks with rushes. let me putin diplomat together. sir james bay's reports now from the united nations. the un secretary general antonio terrace is now going to involve himself directly in an effort to solve the ukraine war. on tuesday, he called for a truce over orthodox easter, something that russia has not agreed to. but on the same day, he also sent 2 letters. one to the russians and the other to the ukrainians, requesting that he should visit moscow and keep the 1st to those trips will now be on tuesday. all we have on the agenda is his working lunch and meeting with the foreign minister and then his reception on later on, on the same day by president putin. you know, as he said in his letters to both presidents and he hopes to talk about what can be done to bring peace to ukraine urgently. diplomat speaking to me before the moscow visit was officially confirmed. welcome the secretary general's new piece
6:08 pm
initiative effort to add to address this ongoing problem. but i think the big issue is to ensure that the russians abide by cease fire that they also allow for access to our to civilians. but any effort to in that carnage is well, you are absolutely delighted to see the sector general step forward. he has been very strong in his remarks to date. we now need to see action. and i think they, the suggestions that he's put out there in terms of engaging both parties brings the you entered into the role that it properly assumes in its responsibility for international peace and security. before the start of the war, the secretary general had tried to meet president putin. they were both at the winter olympics and china at the same time. then russian officials said it was impossible to arrange a meeting. now the 2nd general finds himself possibly involved in shuttle diplomacy
6:09 pm
between moscow and cave. without doubt, this is the most important and probably the most difficult trip of his 5 years in office. james bay's outages at the united nations were now ukraine and russia major agricultural producers and ukraine is the topic, sports of sunflower oil. now it supplies disrupted as a global scramble for vegetable oils. as food prices such adding to the pressure, the world's leading palm, whole producer, that's indonesia is banning exports from thursday. the most widely used vegetable oil is an ingredient for many products ranging from cakes to cosmetics. it is, it says it wants to ensure that palm oil remains affordable for its people. after price is searched. that's an hour from joseph smith, who's a principal officer with the food and agriculture organization over the u. n. and he says, there aren't any other major palm all suppliers that would be able to fill the void in demand. if it works, it will certainly keep in check crisis at the domestic level,
6:10 pm
but it will give an added push to international prices and not only promo, price is better to go. well. prices in general, countries like india and pakistan will because they are very dependent on homework from not only indonesia, malaysia, and high tide lifts all ships. so prices will go up not only for in the need for india and pakistan, but practically for all the importance of vegetables and palm. one in particular is very high substitute ability between the various vegetables. so it will essentially lift up crisis will sunflower for rapes, either one will soybean oil and eventually even full for only 4. so all the prices will go up. there's nothing that can stop them. now. malaysia and indonesia are counting for more than 80 percent of all of the exports. and they're also supplied problems in malaysia. so it is practically impossible than any other countries that steps up to the table and makes good for the misson experts. now,
6:11 pm
a plenty more. i had on the news of clothing a y, florida's governor signed a bill to strip disney it. special taxes are pushed to bruce, the number of women in the workforce could help improve india's economy. we have support coming up to the link sticking the tail my and heating and b a. playoffs. gemma will have the action. ah, so the israeli government is closed the garza border crossing to workers off to hamas rocket attacks. they targeted southern israel after repeated israeli rates on palestinian worship is at the hour, extra mosque and occupied east, jerusalem israeli, arrayed to talked various areas of the gaza strip twice. last week. you know side is that the garza israel border palestinians in garza, consider this decision to be
6:12 pm
a dangerous decision that may lead to further escalation because of the deteriorating economy conditions that people are living in. and how this decision greatly affects them. the decision of allowing or easing manager of allowing workers to work in the occupied territories came as part of a ceasefire agreement that was brokers by egypt after the latest may 2020 for one, a war between godsa and israel. and since september 2021, only 12000 workers were allowed to enter and work in the occupied territories out of the total number of the 20000 workers that were granted these permits. this decision now comes in a time or a very critical time for palestinians in the gaza strip as we are approaching aiden foot to the season, which is a festival season for muslims around the world. it's
6:13 pm
a season where people get to buy new clothes as special kinds of foods, decorations, and, and people hearing garza are desperately waiting for these workers to enter. as the markets are filled with all kinds of products for eat, and goods and add the little money our, our source of the money or, or income that comes into the gaza strip, is, are going to be a flourishing for the economy and the markets in the upcoming or, or at the upcoming weeks in the gaza strip. when is really raised in the north of the occupied west bank of intensified and recent weeks off to, to gunman from jeanine, killed ages, re lease and set for the turks. hundreds of fighters live in the janine refugee camp, which has become a stronghold for resistance against his friendly occupation. the abraham was allowed inside and spoke to the fighters in a largely unarmed society sees like these standout gunman participating in
6:14 pm
a military career in the genie and refugee camp in northern occupied westbank. they're taking part in a memorial foot 14 palestinians killed in jeannine during the past 2 months. at least half of the 14 were killed in an exchange of fire. with these ready army, including 2 gunmen who shot 8 people dead into separate attacks inside israel. he is really army, said it once, family members of one of the gunman, but they're taking refuge in the camp where dozens of fighters live, even though these fighters are wanted by the israeli army. they're here in a show, a 4th that is filled with symbolism. one of the had been here says the wasps nest. this is how was really media refers to the camp. armed men speaking exclusively to just say they're reclaiming the description. rational bottom left it on. we live on
6:15 pm
the patients, they confiscate our lands rate, our homes, and kill our people. what should we do? remain silent. even those who are not fighting occupation yet give them some time and they will fight the flags of different palestinian fractions. show the collaboration between groups here, but outside the camp. this kind of agreement is hard to find. one gunmen told al jazeera that fighters feel let down by palestinian and other leaders having happen . we don't have real support given the current internal palestinian divisions. those menu see now in jeanine refugee camp and some other places are just lone wolves who believe in the justice of their cause. a lot of fighters weren't even born when these really army carried a violence read in the camp 20 years ago. but they were headbands, remembering what is known here. as the jeannine battled 52 palestinians and 23 israeli soldiers were killed during the 2002,
6:16 pm
encouraging into the camp many years. see why that battle is now over. the war is not german whale was a fighter in the janine camp during that battle. these are archive videos of him 20 years ago. his book about the janine battle was just released last month, frankly. and jimmy, if he came her is did show that we have a lot of people who were killed or detained. there's not one house in the camp that doesn't have a personal story for the struggle against the occupation. young children grow up with pictures of relatives killed by israeli forces. this affects the generations conscious and subconscious money coming from the motor bike. sorry for the palestinian who was killed by the israeli forces fired in early march. and we were talking to many people who say they were inspired by him. we're seeing some of the are men carrying pictures of seniors who are new hire. it's not hard to tell me that they have
6:17 pm
a personal revenge of your patients. many of the gunman here acknowledge these really army has the military advantage, but they say they want to create a reality where the strongest, the army, the middle east pays a price for its occupation. they say is re left them with 2 choices, surrender or fight. and they're not surrendering. neither raheem al jazeera jeannie refugee camp, occupied west bank to the united states and florida stripping the walt disney company of the right to self government critic say, republican governor, run the census is retaliating against disney's opposition to a new law. this limits what schools can teach about gender identity and sexual orientation. lexia brian has this report. oh florida's magic kingdom no longer the happiest place on earth for disney. after the states governor rhonda santas signed legislation dissolving the company so called spatial status,
6:18 pm
they are going to pay more taxes as a result of ever since the 1960, the disney world resort had been effectively its own city controlling everything on its sprawling property from rhodes. to rubbish collection, the move to change that could have huge financial implications for disney who series of theme parks of transformed orlando to one of the world's most popular tourist destinations. could also cause big problems for the cities where disney properties are located. since they'll now have to offer those services. oh, but critics say it's less about tax than tit for tat. after disney, one of the state's largest employers spoke out against a new law passed by the governor and the states republican controlled legislature. it bars teaching on gender identity and sexual orientation, and schools for children aged between 5 and 9 years old and makes it more difficult for schools to raise the topic with all the children. we believe an important
6:19 pm
component of freedom is that in the state of florida, is the freedom from having oppressive idiology opposed upon you without your can said, whether it be in the classroom or whether it be in the workplace. and we decided to do something about it. opponents call it the don't say, gained or warning. it could hurt l. g b, t students or their families. they criticized disney for initially staying quiet, but the public outcry and walk out my staff nationwide. so management condemned the law as a challenge to basic human rights. far, i'd activist and support as a former president, donald trump have rallied against disney, referring to florida, as dissenters land. there's always one school august negotiated to get me the stock getting in ball these cultural war issues. i because up until recently, disney in the republican already had
6:20 pm
a really strong relationship. it's unclear exactly how the legislation could hurt disney's profit, 80000 workers in florida, or as millions of customers. some analysts of called it a political tantrum by dissenters. he's a potential presidential candidate in 2024 warning. it could backfire. think of all the other businesses that rely on whether they're restaurants, rental cars, hotels, everything's connected, and when you take a stance like this, you don't merely affect that one company you at all those other companies. the change is set to come into force in june next year. so far, the company, famous and mickey mouse and co has declined to comment. alex there brian al jazeera are a let's take a closer look at that special tax district that effectively allows disney to self govern. since 1967, it's enabled disney to build up its theme park complex, well, bypassing state and county regulations. but it also means disney is responsible for
6:21 pm
providing municipal services like power, like water and emergency services. disney still pays property taxes to the 2 counties that surround its theme parks with the special district that sits on cold reedy creek carries about $977000000.00 in debt. and critics say that debt will fall on tax pairs if the special district is dissolved, but it actually remains unclear at this moment. aside from really creek, there are 5 other special districts across florida that will be dissolved as a result of this bill. so let's brian scott lucas to take this on his and ameritas professor at the university of berman joins us alive via stripe from there. so it's got 1st of all, self governing areas in themselves. raise many questions, but the timing and build up here. well, it's purely a political move is not design, and we can discuss the economics whether you should have self governing areas instead of state local governments taking complete control. but there are 2 reasons
6:22 pm
why this is occurred. now. one is part of republicans whipping up so called culture wars as they try to erode rights civil rights, l g b t rights, education rights voting rights, public health rights in florida and in other states. and secondly, it's because governor rhonda santos wants to win the presidency in 2024. simple as out. the de santis is, in fact, is taking donald trump's playbook and he's trying to out trump trump, by talking about extremist democrats, radical liberals, a supposed will, culture, just furthering the divide in america for his own personal ambition. and this bid throughout from trump, when it what you know, who knows that spin the uncertainty of american politics as we see democracy really being threatened from the inside. it certainly worked for donald trump in 2016 this type of playbook and rhonda santos last year. it conferences right wing conferences
6:23 pm
. republic conferences was consistently 2nd to donald trump and straw polls amounts delegates who they would support in 2024. and as donald trump is being sidelined right now, in part because he doesn't have twitter is a microphone, in part because he's got a series of legal battles. it opens a space for someone like the santas to try to come forward. on the other hand, there are those who would say that, that disney itself should not be positioned itself in this way in what effectively is become the cultural cultural. well, 1st let's be very clear here. disney was not opposed to the don't say gay bill initially, which is the, the bill that benz teaching, gender and sexuality up to 89 and significantly restricts it all the way through high school in florida. it was disney employees that said, look, you know, we don't like what this does in terms of challenging rights as well as restricting education. and then disney shifted position. and it also should be noted that walt disney himself, the founder of disney and the empire, it should read
6:24 pm
a re about it. he was in a left where he wasn't crazy, liberal now. so want to santa simply holding up, disney has some type of icon saying over there from california, and everybody knows that people in california are kind of left wing. it's just the same type of manufactured fiction, which unfortunately has the very real effect of just reinforcing the divide in america instead of trying to bring people together at a critical time, both at home and abroad on many, many issues. is it disney has enormous reach? doesn't it? to say the least is at the local entity, you know, 40000 beds, hundreds of restaurants and so on and so forth, to what degree will this affect people in the region? and therefore, i have implications for the governor and the decision that he's made. what has a big effect economically? i mean, you've just mentioned, for example, on the significant amount of tourist and trump that comes until the orlando florida area. because of disney, not just on disney's, you know, complex, which is valid, really large, but to other hotels, other restaurants in the area. secondly,
6:25 pm
because disney in fact is no longer funding that area. so financing at someone has to and that's going to be the local governments, property taxes estimated in those 2 counties where disney says, we're going to rise 20 percent. and as your report also mentioned, if you do not let disney governance off than that almost $1000000000.00 in debt is transferred to local governments. do i think ronda st is cares about that? absolutely not. his gamble is, is that before the economic effects are really saying, he gets political capital out of this, especially because he's seeking re election to become governor this november. interesting, scott could say, appreciate you putting in respect to for us. thanks very much. thank you. the sri lankan prime minister has lost an ally. as colds grow for the government to step down, media minister the lock i'd go to is announced his support for the weeks long protest. it comes with demonstrations, continue against the handling of the growing economic crisis protested. want the

president and his cabinet out and in the nearby town of rom, connor, a funeral, has been held for man who was killed when police fired at protest. this is killing on tuesday, provoked outrage gleason soldiers were sent to the town to guard the funeral. no fernandez is interim cromer and has more on the funeral. the people, many of them will come to the funeral a while we've, we're here have expressed anger, essentially that of protest are demanding, you know, not for anything, you know, not handouts, but basically to be given fuel that allows him to get on with his livelihood. and come in the latch on the man who was killed in police gone far in that sort of clash with the police. a was looking for he'll, he'd been waiting for 4 days a field for his laurie. he's someone who apparently supplies the elephant orphanage, which is also down the road, which is the same area where his residence is down. that road behind me. you can
6:27 pm
see banners, white flag, and bunting, all in preparation for the funeral. and he had been unable to do his job for days and days because of the fuel shortage. so people sort of raising the fact that this is not right that the government has got things completely wrong. and one of the killing things with this kind of thing. you generally see politicians are coming through such funerals during such crises, trying to make mileage. and i can pretty much see across the board. there was hardly a political face in the crowd. on the contrary, there were about a 100 buddhist monks who came to assist in the final rights and one very outspoken priest said this government has lost the ability to define between good and bad. and that's why these kinds of things are happening. so i had her mouth 0. i'm gabriel's on new york, one of the world's biggest antique book fairs,
