4:03 pm
. bodies of civilians were found with hands tied behind their backs. earlier this month, when you crane recaptured it from russian forces and to charred residential towers in urban where there's been extensive damage. innocent civilians living in this building. they were paying the highest price for a war, for which there not going to be good. mental ukrainian officials were frustrated. he visited russian president vladimir putin in moscow before keith zalinski called it ambiguous to see the aggressor before the victims. the un secretary general has been unable to get the sides to see eye to eye. but once to begin the negotiation process to stop a war that men ukrainians had hoped, the un would prevent in the 1st place. and you shall now does, here on the battlefield. ukraine says russia has increased the pace. if it's offensive in the east. there's been fierce fighting in the dumbass region. russian
4:04 pm
forces have taken these 2 towns in the east. they're pushing towards the cities of layman and papa now and the front line defended by ukrainian troops and satellite imagery for maria poll is revealing the damage done by russian shelling on the as of stole steel plants. that's where ukrainian soldiers and civilians are sheltering . russia has continued its air strikes on the facility despite agreeing in principle with the un to allow evacuations. thousands are hiding in the steel plants, underground tunnels. as russian forces surround the city. and at least one person has been killed in car key and another to injure it. after rushing shelling on a residential area on wednesday, emergency crews went to the scene to treat the wounded and put out a fire crane. second largest city has faced selling nearly every day since the war began. let's get the latest on the situation in the east of ukraine and bringing charl stratford. he's joining us from lima. that's in the dumbass region. charles, update us on what you're hearing and seeing. ah hi there. yes,
4:05 pm
you join us ne, all the city all slay advanced a few kilometers away from a contested town called lehman that we've been reporting on about a lot in recent days now. we were in this area 4 days ago, and it seems as if quite a lot has changed since in the last half an hour or so. we've heard a lot of incoming, very close shilling and outgoing targeting positions. we understand the force to our left and right the, the military gave very nervous, so they've moved to san once and we've just been especially negotiate pretty hard to get you this picture. i'm seeing a lot of smoke in, in the distance there. now, li, matt is hugely important because it is part of russia's wide campaign to surround the city of sl events and further south kraemer tools. it's going on here, and it's also going on to various other positions to the west of me on the road
4:06 pm
that leads up to a city called idiom which the russians control lay up, been repeated attempts by the russian military to push down that road the m 30 it is from is im towards slab janski's. so far, the ukrainian military have held them back in the last 24 hours or so ukrainian military reporting that there has been a move even further west to that of is you again trying to pull round too slow? fiancee bases, events can cremmit also to the largest urban areas still under full ukrainian control. and so there is a huge focus, as you can imagine, from russian forces in trying to encircle them and trap many ukrainian forces in this area a similar scenario. and i heard you mention it in the in show a town cool persona. now we were relatively close to that town earlier today. again, a lot of shelling there, a lot of black smoke. what we think we may have seen. we know that have been
4:07 pm
evacuation attempts from remaining civilians in what we understand is to be a pretty much destroyed city. now, how town now? half of it, we understand controlled by the russians off controlled by the ukrainians. and that again is a move papa center is east of here, a move in this direction. the have been a lot of moving parts in the last 24 hours. it's fair to say that this whole indications would suggest that there is a constant effort by the russians to try and take more territory and they are doing that. but at a very slow pace. there's also interesting, a move from the south, the south, west of russian controlled territory, a move towards the city of separation of their reports of russian troop movements heading towards the apparition. that is just south of denise pro, a town that has not been a city, a huge city that has not had the heavy kind of shelling that other cities of have
4:08 pm
suffered in the last couple of months. although, according to the ukrainian military, there was a residential area that was hit earlier this morning, ins apparition at least 3 civilians injured in that are just one last salient piece of news. certainly the last hour or so around the area of troy. it's gay. an area that we were in yesterday that had been shilling there in the morning . been a number of civilians injured in that shelling today. we've heard that shilling has continued at least 3 civilians killed in that area. so it certainly seems as if, as i say, that seems to be a concerted effort by russian fools. he's according to military and is trying to capitalize on some of this good weather that we're beginning to see in ukraine now that the ground is beginning to dry up. and the skies are clearer. and certainly this 2nd phase as the,
4:09 pm
the russian military calling it is very much underway. and this area the, when at the moment very much the focus of their attention. okay, thank you. that is what's happening on the ground and east of ukraine. charles stratford reporting from lehman. meanwhile, the u. s. president. job id is asking congress for additional powers to seize and use the assets of russian business leaders. let's find out more with our white house correspondent kimberly help get. so what do we expect from bite and said akin really? yeah, the u. s. president joe biden will be talking about 2 things when he speaks from the roosevelt room in the white house in the coming hours or so. but 90 minutes time. what we expect is, if you remember, the president was talking last week about needing more money for ukraine. and the reason is, is that the white house doesn't control the purse strings in the united states as congress that does that. so the u. s. president is going to be talking about what
4:10 pm
he needs in order to make sure that ukraine gets the support that it needs from the united states. so he's going to calling on congress to pass a new legislative package ship for aid for ukraine. it's supposed to be massive. we don't know the exact dollar amount, but what we do know is that will allow for roughly another 5 months of support. so that is the 1st component of what the president is likely talk about. the 2nd component is what you touched on, and that is the new effort to put in place measures that will allow for the united states to continue to see the assets of the oligarchy that are engaged. in collector ta chrissy. and this is something that the united states have to support ukraine. so this is what the u. s. president will be talking about. so kimberly, the u. s. has been piling on these actions against russia. i mean, so does the white house believe that they have been effective or they are achieving
4:11 pm
the desired effect? yeah, the white house absolutely. what their economists are seeing in russia right now is some of the worst inflation in decades. i think back to 2002 inflation now throughout 17 per said. we see companies in russia shutting down mostly because of a lack of parts because of the sanctions that have been put in place. but 200000 job losses. justin at the city of moscow and around the city is sort of expanding outside. and also there's been an historic default to in russia being able to sort of that it deal with its bonds. and this is going to have lasting impacts. but the economists say that many of these effects are still yet to come in are still playing out. so there's no question that the white house, please. this is having an effect. okay, thank you so much. kimberly hancock is our white house correspondent. alright. in europe, germany's parliament has approve sending heavy weaponry to ukraine and what's been
4:12 pm
a major policy shift. the decision to some anti aircraft systems has been supported by all 3 ruling coalition parties, as well as the acquisition conservatives. germany had initially resisted calls to provide heavy weapons. it's longstanding policy of not sending arms to conflict zones has changed since the start of the war. russia says incidents in a pro russian breakaway region off moldova, or an attempt to drag the region into conflict. security has been tightened at border checkpoints off to reported a toxin trans mystery. um the interior ministry says shots were fired from ukraine on wednesday towards a village housing and ammunition stapo. and it says 2 explosions damaged radio antennas in another village. me, barker has more ukraine's interpretation of what's happened in france. nisha is that this is very much a false flag operation, orchestrated by russia or to justify possibly bolstering russia's troop presence within the trans nice year. there is
4:13 pm
a sizable russian speaking population in the region. and of course, we know historically that russia has used the defense of russian speakers as a reason for moving military into regions. of course has happened in the done yes because half a little of hands in the 2008 war we georgia that happened in south set here as well, the moldova, and believe that they may well be some internal dispute going on in trends. these dad, what we're seeing are acts of sabotage from within the russians have said that they're watching what's going on in transit. they're very, very closely indeed saying that they don't want to see the area being drawn into a wider conflict. the question is really logistically whether russia could actually, if it wanted to send troops into the area, it's failed to a stage at some fabulous landing. in odessa, there are very few options as to how troops could actually access the region for the time being though. oh, security services are moldova, and ukraine are watching very, very closely what's happening there. of course, if this continues on a regular basis,
4:14 pm
they may well have to reevaluate their own security situation here. mold over pauper and to the east, of course, in the ukraine, that is very, very worried about their suddenly being a new front opening in the west of the country as well. once more had on the al jazeera in his hour, including the largest exodus of cumulus this century is taking place. am lucy annual in havana? cuba and coming up, i'll explain why and find out why millions have hector is that the world's trains are in trouble. in sports news england have announced their new test cricket captain details coming up later with jam. ah, for the national strike is underway, insur lanka, as part of protest against the government's handling of a devastating economic crisis. ha,
4:15 pm
members of 500 different trade unions are marching across the capital, colombo opposition parties have organized sixties of protests across the country. sir lincolns had been dealing with shortages of fuel food and medicine for weeks. michelle fernandez is in colombo and she says the government must be feeling the pressure. there are certain signs that they're trying to sort of take measures and steps to respond to some of these both. we saw the government, the cabinets, step down, the president appoint an interim government then bring in an entire new cabinet of relatively young new faces. but it is not seem seeming to have classified all of these protests as they say, new faces just in cabinet won't do. they want a clean sweep from the president, the prime minister and the cabinet to go. now, there also seems to be moved within the opposition parties to do 2 things. one to bring no confidence motion against the government that would be passed by
4:16 pm
a simple majority. the other option is also to bring in sort of constitutional reform. the president and the prime minister have made sort of noises about willing to being willing to accept these. but at the end of the day, nothing much has moved. it's been a month since china's biggest city, shanghai went into lockdown because of a co with 19 outbreak. there has been widespread unrest among residents who have complained of food shortages on tough restrictions. katrina, you reports from beijing. his factory on the outskirts of shanghai normally produces around $300000.00 bicycles every month. it counts u. s. department store walmart among its many international clients. but because of restrict corona virus to lockdown, it's been forced to close for full weeks, confined to his harmed manager, lager worries about his 2000 workers. and his bottom line, to be honest, is
4:17 pm
a very difficult for them. i would like to pay a little bit more. but you know, the last for the companies also beat i'm, i don't know how, how am i going to so wife after this, but i will try to soften authorities in shanghai, say a new round of testing will decide where the neighborhoods can begin opening up. most of the cities 25000000 residents remain locked down. it sparked anger and protest in the commercial center. here, people i heard banging pots and pans from their apartment windows. one woman's screams, give me back my freedom. still, chinese leaders insist on maintaining a 0 curve 19 policy. they are trying to contain the public discontent. but we are still working with a lot of this system which means that it is the car good. the has been said by the
4:18 pm
top leadership, which is all her among importance for cod race, responsible for any of those specific policies. public discontent comes much lower in dennis priorities for them to meet. there have been complaints of food shortages, the separation of families, and the killing of pets by health workers. but analysts say any political blame is likely to fall on low level officials, not president, she didn't ping or top beijing ministers in the capital authorities doing all they can to prevent a city wide lockdown. people have stopped up when supplies bracing for the results of 3 rounds of mass testing conducted this week. more than 100 infections have been recorded, resulting in the closure of some schools and attainment venues and tourist sites. dozens of neighborhoods has been barricaded. the heavy handed measures resemble
4:19 pm
doors imposed during the early days of the pandemic. more than 2 years on many are questioning whether the queue is worse than the disease itself. katrina, you al jazeera, they doing. taiwan has confirmed a record number of daily cove in 1900 infections on thursday, the health minister said there were more than 11000 cases effected taiwan. close the islands borders at the start of the pan demik. but has since abandoned a 0 coven policy thing. with taiwan and the u. s. congress has passed the bill to help the territory regain its observer status at the world health organization president joe biden is expected to sign the measure into a law. taiwan was stripped off the status in 2017 because of objections from china, asian considers the island a brick away province. the un human rights committee has found that a corruption probe into brazil's former president, louise industrial luda. the silva violated his rights. it says less political
4:20 pm
rights were breached because the proceeding stopped him running for office. the former president was sentenced to 12 years in prison in 2018 on fraud and corruption charges. he was released 2 years later after the supreme court and no conviction. he's now the front runner in brazil's october elections. cuba is experiencing the largest exodus of people, the century is driven mainly by a worsening economy. the government blames the u. s. economic embargo. our latin america editor lucio newman, has this special reports from cuba, capital lavano. but old mary maurice 76 year old cool young gonzales has been making shoes by hand since he was 12. no, it doesn't bother him. but i made this paper as a gift to my son's friend. that friend will be giving him temporary room and board in argentina to where he is about to migrate. he tells me it will be hard to leave behind his home, even though it is literally falling apart. his children and his wife migrated long
4:21 pm
ago. but he never wanted to leave cuba until now, and he will under the same diagnose for the last 60 years, our leadership has told us that things will improve but will overcome all obstacles . but we see the contrary. everyday things get worse. we have less food, more social problems, viet again, by senior gonzales's. lucky he has a visa to enter his country of destination. vast majority of cubans don't. so they try to fly 1st to nicaragua, the only country where cubans can enter freely. but to get there, they need to transit through panama, which is now demanding a transit visa. cubans from all over the country. wait near the panamanian embassy to apply the majority in vain on on ocean or liberal chemical has been out here for 23 days. we'll give you more than what we said are you, i'm a human being and i look all around and can't understand that any human being can
4:22 pm
be treated like this. i feel humiliated, messy, and only oh wow. at the airport. another equally desperate group has become the latest victim of a scan, an alleged travel agency that sold in tickets for a non existent charter flight to nicaragua, all of our market. every one you see here, the whole family was leaving today. and what were you going to do when you arrived in garago? i asked, oh, i love every many of us have nowhere to go because we've sold the house everything . cubans economic crisis has unleashed the largest accident since 1980 when former president, fidel castro, allowed 820000 cubans to sail to florida. se cooper's government blames the trump and bind administrations for the latest crisis thought i heard both. the recipe is to taught me economic embargo and cuba to provide more hardships on cuban families . reduced salaries provide hunger and desperation,
4:23 pm
and the overthrow of our government off me to heal. since cuba government repressed and unprecedented social uprising by disgruntled cubans, last july, exodus has increased this despite the new obstacles placed by panama, which appears to be cooperating with us efforts to reduce the influx of undocumented cubans. whatever the reason cubans are telling us that they feel trapped, and as a result, many are resorting to a far more dangerous method that hadn't been seen since the 19 ninety's. and that is to attempt to cross the shark infested, florida straits that you see behind me in a raft or in a boat in an attempt to make it to the united states. in 1994, during the so called rafters crisis, nearly 40000 cubans attempted to sail to florida. many drowning in the process to day history is beginning to be repeated back at the airport. the lucky few who had managed to get a transit visa prepared to leave cuba,
4:24 pm
final destination still unknown, but the pain of leaving their loved ones behind is agonizing. a scene that is being repeated all over the scarab be an island. she and human al jazeera havana come for a check on the weather, hers. everton, hello, the weather remains, roslyn. settled across middle east of the main. we've had a fair amounts of cloud around colleague of mine took this picture yesterday. you can see that lively cloud there over the out. is there a building here in doha. the cloud is sitting a little bit still thick enough to produce one or 2 spots of brightness. we go on through the next couple of day shout extending from the caspian sea back. see all the way down into saudi arabia and beyond. yemen could see a few showers as well as suddenly, just as some showers here in dough her over the next couple of days, temperatures into the mid thirty's enough to make your car dirty. should we say, when you're showers to just around western side of or iran, as we go on into the weekend and we've got some showers,
4:25 pm
some of them lives across north western parts of africa. what a brisk wind coming in here as well. you see lifted dust and sand it and northern parts of algeria said to the case through libya, easing over towards egypt and cairo on the hot side southerly winds. picking those temperatures up to around $38.00 degrees celsius shall continue across. so central africa, big downpours coming through here, we have seen some flooding just around the rift valley or one. there has seen some heavy downpours recently. southern parts of africa generally set fare over the next couple of days. but always chance of one or 2 showers. still had on al jazeera, i'm tony chang on the tie coast where coven 19 shut down. so lead to a rejuvenation of marine life. the return of tourists is a threat and sport a moment to forget for inter milan go too. birth will tell you why this mistaken prove very costly by for his side. ah,
4:26 pm
how and why did it become so obsessed? with this law, we were giving them a tool to hold corrupt individuals and human rights abusers accountable. they're going to rip this deal apart if they take the white house of 2025. what is the world hearing? we're talking about pi american today, your weekly take on us politics and society. that's the bottom line. short films of hope and inspiration. a series of short puzzles, stories that highlight the human triumph against the odds. ah ah, al jazeera selects ah revealing
4:27 pm
eco friendly solutions to combat threats to our planet on al jazeera. oh, a kind of work done on the auto renews our un secretary general is in ukraine and is visiting towns or russia is accused of committing war crimes. antonio terrace has observed destroyed residential towers on the site of mass graves. he's trying to secure humanitarian corridors to evacuate. civilian. russia says incidents in a pro russian brinkley regional. those are an attempt to drag the region into conflict. security has been tightened. border checkpoints, officer reported attacking trans mystery and national cycles underway. interlinked
4:28 pm
as part of protest against the government handling of a devastating economic crisis. members of 500 different trade unions are marching across the capital, colombo. germany's chancellor says his country's preparing for a possible situation where russia stops gas exports to berlin. all our soldiers in japan, on his 1st trip to asia as chancellor rush's invasion of ukraine and the energy crisis are key issues being discussed with the japanese prime minister from yoshida, the meeting comes as politicians in germany have voted in favor of sending heavy weapons to keep what they should try to do and what decision the russian government will take in this regard. one can only speculate, but it makes little sense. one has to be here for it. and as i said, we had already started to do this before the war broke out. and we know what we have to do, and that is exactly what we will do. cooking oil prices of sorts are record high,
4:29 pm
partly because of the war in ukraine. and they were expected to increase even more as indonesia, the world's leading producer upon oil starts its export ban. jessica washington reports on how cooks are coping the kitchen counters south. some of the country's most popular dishes can be found in this small kitchen. fried chicken, fried fish and fried tofu. almost everything on the menu has one ingredient in common, palm oil. and dung city and c opened this restaurant 30 years ago. but now she's worried, she could lose customers. but on top of the unstable price of cooking oil fix my business. when it was cars, it was difficult. now it's available but expensive. so challenging for small businesses. pump oil is the world's most widely used edible oil. for months, concerns about price and availability have been growing in indonesia despite the
4:30 pm
country being the top producer. now the government is banning palm oil exports, including crude and refined palm oil owl. the cut up, i understand the state needs taxes along with foreign exchange. and the country need to trade bound surplus, but meeting the people, the primary needs is more important. it's a priority weak up with one. the move has shocked global markets. the price of cooking oil has been rising around the world for a number of reasons. disruptions in production, increasing demand for biofuels, and the war in ukraine. the world's largest exporter of sunflower oil experts say the latest moved by the indonesian government is likely to push prices even higher . um oil is also used in processed foods, cosmetics, cleaning products and more economists say the government strategies to normalize cooking oil prices have been misguided focusing on supply rather than problems
4:31 pm
within the industry. it may not solve the problem because again, the problem with the, with the cooking oil in the, in the, in the international market right now is actually the, in the distribution channel. there is a bottleneck in now because of this complex and long, you know, distribution channel. the indonesian pharmacy association says its members will also suffer. what does that mean? it, this time period should give momentum to the government to reform the palm oil industry and it's production model. right now it's run by big companies and they set the distribution of palm oil material according to the market. and now the government intends the band to remain until prices reach around $0.97 per liter at traditional markets in indonesia. but it's unclear whether this policy will achieve that. jessica washington out to 0 to carter. so just to put this into context for you,
4:32 pm
palm oil is the world's most widely used vegetable oil. it's and everything from cakes and cosmetics to soaps and cleaning products. as you saw on jessica's report and denise as experiencing a shortage, despite providing 60 percent of the world's supply, india and china are its biggest customers. prices have sword 50 percent in the past year and tripled in 2 years. while bad weather and denisia disrupted palm oil output drought in argentina, and canada has devastated soy and rapes the production and rushes invasion of ukraine world supply. india and china are its biggest customers. prices have sword 50 percent in the past year and tripled in 2 years. while bad weather and denisia disrupted palm oil output drought in argentina. and canada has devastated soy and rapes, the production and russia's invasion of ukraine has wiped out much of the sunflower oil supply. from the black sea region,
4:33 pm
analysts say this is all the perfect storm for a global food related crisis. st. lawrence, how does the executive director the global alliance for improve nutrition? he's joining us from brighton in the united kingdom. welcome learn how to i'll just 0. let's 1st talk about this back by indonesia. so the president says that supplying the country's 270000000 residence is the highest priority for his government. so is he right in implementing this to do? he's got consumers complaining noisily about the prices edible or oil. and so this is something that can be done quickly without too much fanfare and has the appearance of being able to address the situation quickly. but actually this is going to be bad for amo, because this has big effects worldwide as well as with an engineer, right. i wonder if you can drill down a little bit on the effects worldwide because i say i me, anthony's as the largest producer of the oil. that accounts for correct me if i'm wrong here, but more than half the world supply hi. so impractical and,
4:34 pm
and real terms, what does this mean for other countries? yeah, i mean you're, you're, you're present as an analyst. got it. exactly right. there's a perfect storm of what's happening in canada and argentina, and brazil, and of course structure so essential for growth and development. but now, because the price of edible oil is skyrocketing, skyrocketing so much government and the producers and suppliers about of oil in the process is about of war amount that i should saying, well, hold on, maybe in a, maybe this risks, the fortification effort. and so it's a really classic example of the butterfly effect, something happening. and one last of the blow having really unintended and unpredictable instances elsewhere in the world for millions and millions of people, right. and the longer the, the war in ukraine goes on. what's at stake here for the global food supply really well in the longer this goes on, the longer the global food supply will continue to suffer under its current
4:35 pm
structure. so what's absolutely essential is diversification. we have to know this is the latest shock in a series of shocks that happen over the last 15 years, globally. and it will be on a rash, personal bet, against future shocks in the next 15 years. so we have to get ready to normalize shocks and build resilience, and that means diversification diversification. and where we produce food in how we produce it in the kinds of foods we produce, the kinds of the diversification of diet sauce from brighton. my pleasure. now, despite global pledges to reserve and hold deforestation by 2030 millions of factors of trees are still being cut down around the world each year. so global forest wash has released a report for last year using satellite data. this is what it shows tropical forest loss in 12 months resulted in 2.5 giga tons of carbon dioxide emissions. that's
4:36 pm
equivalent to the annual fossil fuel emissions of india. imagine a football pitch covered with trees. 10 of those disappear every single minutes every single day of the year, or more than 40 percent of the loss occurred and kind of 1st forest experienced their highest rate of loss on record and 2021 up 30 percent from the year before. earlier i spoke to ra taylor, who is the global director of the forest program at the world resources institute. and he says that cutting down trees harms the climate, animals, and indigenous people. the overall picture of the tropics is the arson ration right to remain suddenly high up the last 2 decades. despite all pages in our session. last 5 years for 3 funds for the climate where you should include a lot of the most or in the 2nd bad news the,
4:37 pm
the extension crisis or, or being lost is a under trade station. this is not good because a lot of our station so i'm back to bridges on the right to the digital people's and often a lot. right. you know the struction a forest has been increasing for for the last 2 decades in fact. and despite the pledges of deforestation and commitments from governments as well as corporations, why do you think that is a good problem? it's really about people who need land. i need a corporate taking advantage of the world where they're a long way from capital city. governments is weak there, i think this new round of places is a sign and potentially can be taken to bring those. all right,
4:38 pm
so let's look at some good news though. i mean, the report does single out indonesia saying that the rate of primary forest loss declined for the 5th straight year, falling by 25 percent compared to the year 2020. what kind of the countries learned from indonesia and is indonesia itself heading in the right direction to meet? so that's kind of commitment to the climate we're seeing number policies in asia. they have a moratorium on forest ferry on various policies in place to restrict expansion before a mass supported by a oil industry. not to expand a palm will. how ever that good news is not necessary? i hope we have a record of higher prices which will make it more try to convert force
4:39 pm
palm as well as that you can use as this moratorium. and so i need to know my time of the last 5 years turkeys president is traveling to saudi arabia for a 2 day visit aimed at repairing ties. reggie ty berto on is expected to meet crown prince mohammed ben selman during his 1st visit to the kingdom in years. relations between the 2 restrained off of $28.00, killing of journalists, yamaha, so she at the saudi consultant is stumble. send him cuz well glue life for us from assemble. what can we expect there said him well, there, and we expect to the 2 countries who have being stronger lies about until jamal has shipped is coming in 2018. met their diplomatic and economic ties, especially after the or up spring for the last one decades. relations have been strained between the 2 countries as their perspectives about the feature of the mid,
4:40 pm
