they may target family or friends rubbing at the time. i could not sleep or eat. it was mentally, extremely stressful. once on alumni, after much deliberation, we decided to relocate to thailand. most journalists who report the truth or so fled to the broader regions. yet in toggle, i can confidently say in me about now, there is no freedom of expression. even when someone shares something on facebook, they can be detained when you don't know. so now information is more difficult to obtain and verify. freedom of expression has been lost because people are fearful speaking to the media. yes, i work in thailand as a journalist, covering issues in mamma, catching stories on how under my visa status does not reflect this doctrine. thus for safety doors must be put solely from arguing us wrong. ah wish if we are found the way be shut like a mirror,

6:16 am
from the al jazeera london brooker center to people in thoughtful conversation or cannot be raised by the supervisor with no host and no limitations. what matter the note was to be brought. how can the thing that's radical part one, i way way and denise is not about wanting to sell about the message in the studio. b. unscripted on al jazeera lou blue ah ah. hello again. i missed how's your day and go home that's remind you about top
6:17 am
stories here in the south. the 1st group of evacuated from the besieged steel plant and the ukranian city of mario paul has arrived, ends up when richer. they're mostly women, children, and the elderly. hundreds more though are still thought to be trapped that massive tornado has ripped through the us state of oklahoma with further tornado warnings extending to neighboring states. local media has reported 90 kilometer on our wins and hail the size of golf balls. at least 7000 people are without power in mar, firefighters, in the us are trying to slow and expanding wildfire effecting several southwestern states. hot dry winds are fueling the flames across arizona and nevada and new mexico. forcing thousands to be evacuated across the region. or more now on the ukraine war and e u. energy ministers have met to for an extraordinary session over russian demands that they pay for oil and gas and rubles, the block says those conditions cannot be met under any circumstances. the energy
6:18 am
commissioner has asked companies do to pay a gas problem in just a few days to consider other options. dominic cane reports now from berlin. for years. russian fossil fuels have been a main energy source from much of europe. on an average day, the e u. bies in as much as $1000000000.00 worth of coal, gas, and oil. but moscow is now insisting customers from what it calls hostile states pay for their gas in rubles, and of switched off supply to the bulgarians. and polls for failing to do so. forcing the you into an emergency meeting on energy security, many or banana companies, i try to make that next payment to gasp. i'm in meet may and are trying to understand better, but they should do, and we need to give them the clarity that bank robbers through their conversion mechanics managed by the russian public authorities. and
6:19 am
a 2nd dedicated accounting cast from bank is a violation of the sanctions and cannot be accepted. in essence, this meeting deferred lasting solutions, leaving that option instead for a full e u summit at the head of state level. at the end of the month. the sticking point has been how to help members states who are most dependent on russian energy. so what they want to know who's going to take care of them is they're solidarity in the european union. it's one thing her solitary, when everybody storage is full, will there be solidarity with storage isn't full and that's germany. for example, has the biggest storage after ukraine. we know the problem and ukraine. they should step up and say, we're going to share with you what we can. the european commission has already said it wants to reduce its dependence on russian energy by 2 thirds this year. but the german government wants to act sooner, where possible agreeing to embargo russian coal from august and wanting to stop
6:20 am
using its oil by the end of the summer, with gas to follow as quickly as possible. which means uncertainty for refineries such as sh, fit in eastern german each year. it processes more than $11000000.00 tons of russian crude oil. it's currently majority owned by the moscow based company rose nifty. in some ways, berlin's changing approach to russian fossil. ready fuels has been a process, not an event. when the war started, ministers avoided encouraging embargoes. but as the conflict in ukraine has evolved, so to has their position here, dominant came al jazeera in the german capital. now the phones of spanish prime minister pedro sanchez and his defense minister had been hacked. government officials say pegasus spyware, which is made by the israeli n a. so group was used to extract information from sanchez's phone at least once,
6:21 am
and comes weeks after it was revealed. that dozens of political figures and catalonia were targeted by spy, when not attorney. westby is the chief executive at cybersecurity firm, global cyber risk. she says, there isn't any real oversight into how the software has been used once the government licenses as what you know. i think this software just needs to be prohibited. the united states has prohibited it. the e u is looking at this. and it is a terribly invasive and destructive spyware. and so doesn't have access to the data of how it's being used. so once of government licenses, there's really no one exercising oversight and it's for intelligence are certainly not going to now another, another government like israel, to have oversight on how they're using it. so it, you know, yes, we have countries with intelligence operations, but usually they build their own capabilities and we leave it to each country to sort of develop their best mousetrap. but this software is invasive. it's
6:22 am
destructive and it actually puts lives at risk. it's very dangerous, and israel is trading diplomatic favors or other kinds of favors that they want with certain countries and whether they license it to them or not. the temptation is so great. once you have the tool and the so powerful, it's very hard to detect. it can ex filtrate, massive amounts of information from a phone and a and it, it, so it's destructive. but the temptation to use it in all sorts of ways is almost uncontrollable. so it, it is a problem that we've seen abuses with activists and journalists, and government officials and members of the judiciary and legislative branches and at all being targeted now to a space mission with a wild, fast difference than we had left off. oh,
6:23 am
oh, new zealand based rocket lab has launched its electron rocket taking 34 satellites into orbit. and it's what happened on the way back to earth that's unique. the rocket was captured as it fell, using a customized helicopter and parachute still, though the venture was only partially successful because the rocket was eventually dropped into the pacific ocean. that makes well, let's get more on this. the significance of this with amy thompson. she is a contributor at space dot com. she joins us now via skype from orlando and florida . amy, thanks for being with us. that really looks like quite the impressive precision operation that can you talk us through what we were seeing. is it really as hard as it looks? sure. yes, it is really hard as it looks um. so as the rocket was falling through the atmosphere, it was outfitted with some parachutes that were helping to slow it down enough that the helicopter could hook on to it. and although there wasn't something quite right
6:24 am
with the connection and they had to drop the booster, it's still a significant milestone because this is their 1st attempt. and they were you partially successful, which is amazing. well, as you say, it wasn't fully successful and the pilots did make that choice to release the rocket into the sea. now i understand, among other things that it's the soap war. so that makes the these boosters hard to reuse. yes. so salt water is very corrosive. and i'm damaging to the parts of the rocket is made out of so they want to try to minimize the exposure to salt water as much as possible. which is why this mid air catch was invented, you know, so that, that would avoid the booster falling into the ocean at all. and instead they would, i'm sort of drop it on to the deck of the ship. so if they managed to get this fully right, this potentially has huge implications when it comes to how expensive space
6:25 am
missions. all right? how much of a difference does reusing a bruce to make? well am, if you look at space acts, which is the only other company right now that is reusing rockets. the 1st stage accounts for probably about 60 percent of the cost of the rocket. so that's a significant savings when you're talking millions of dollars. of course you say space x, is there any other company that's actually managed to reuse these rockets? now, given that we've seen plenty of privates and growing private interest and space, could this then open up the market for more especially from smaller companies like rocket? well, oh absolutely, because the more successful they are, and the more times they can reuse their boosters, the lower the price. and so is the significant of milestone. how long do you think before we see this working successfully? well this was their 1st attempt,
6:26 am
so they actually had this whole week leading up to the launch. they had been trying with a simulator, so it wasn't exactly the same as the rocket falling and they had successful catches . so i would imagine that they're going to go through and dig through the data and you know, maybe next time they might have a full catch. we all hope that amy thompson that contributed yet space dot com. thank you so much for joining us here on out there. amy. thank you. now to a new video from shanghai where people have now been locked down for more than a month. and that video has sparked public out crime. it was shared online and it shows a funeral home work. as we're moving a body bag from a hearse. the elderly man inside was thought to have died in a care home. he was about to be taken to his own funeral. when workers noticed he was actually still alive, he was then taken back inside. the local government confirmed the incident and the care home has apologized for the mistake on beijing is pressing ahead with the mass
6:27 am
testing of its 22000000 residents. the chinese capital isn't completely locked down, but restrictions have tightened for the 5 day labor day holiday, which runs until wednesday to travel pertaining to the year can travel for april. and obviously that seems to be sort of what's happening and about every holiday. so we're just going to wait to see if the same restrictions come into place in june for dragonball. and then really starting to wonder what is going to happen in the summer and whether or not we're going to be able to tell you to be doing. you i didn't have any close contact, but i was in a high risk areas, so quarantined at home getting it was all right, but after a while i couldn't bear it. no violence broke out in ethiopia. is capital addis ababa after morning prayers to celebrate ead protesters through stones at government buildings and police who responded with tear gas. there's anger about
