and us pro abortion rights advocates demand national laws to protect access to the procedure after a supreme court leak suggests it could be outlawed in several states. who's syrup in union has proposed a complete ban on all russian oil imports. by the end of this year, european commission present us lavonne de lion has proposed. it's be done in phases over the next 6 months. it would be a significant step for european countries that rely heavily on russian energy. other new sanctions have also been announced on russian banks and military leaders behind alleged atrocities ukrainian officials and the un meanwhile, hope they can keep bringing more civilians out of a bombed out steel mill in the shell shattered port city of mario pole. some civilians and scores of ukrainian fighters still hold up in the plant,

which is surrounded by russian forces. those evacuated so far have been taken to relative safety ins. apple. rita, which is where what a abdul hamid reports from the land exhausted. they stumbled out of buses, perhaps unaware that their plight has caught the world's attention. they evacuation closely coordinated at the highest levels in both ukraine and russia and still took several days. the thumb of person to whom he gardena was worried that something would go wrong. first, every one had to be vetted by the russian military theater. only got ga. gov to deal with either, but it still can shut off by somebody. they took photos of us as if we were criminals, front and profile. we were fingerprinted, they went through our phones, checked our documents. i was told, there was no way back to marry, pull any more. i felt threatened. ina had gone with her daughter to the as

of styles teeth factory on march. second, you can see her in this video, in one of the dark, underground shelters. that's where she spent the last 8 weeks. the evacuation was broken by the united nations and international red cross. it was a mission fraught with danger. no, we are. we travel through no man's land fairly well. ah, we had a couple of scared instance during the evacuation itself. um we discovered or we didn't discovered the are the russian federation. soldiers discovered mine since mon expirence i had to be cleared. so we get a routine for the civilians to come out and there was some more to far while we were working to evacuate the civilians. a couple of rounds landed 500 meters white also. i don't know who fog them are, but it stopped almost as soon as it started that was really despite the risks and they decided to join the convoy with her 6 months old son. her time under ground was riddled with worry about him and about her mother who got injured and is now

receiving treatment. hello, it's international law. ah, what noah with dr. lyle is now nothing and will i keep it? it was very hard, but we managed, we had to boil water was candles because there wasn't hot water. my father was running under the sheldon 2 other buildings in the complex to get water with over the past 2 weeks. the situation inside those shelters deteriorated food was running low, the air was poor, and the fighting. ever closer. people like valentina, were stuck in the shelter. her 2 months were cut off from the world. they were not getting any news. and they had no idea what was happening to their hometown. and when they came out, she says they were shocked while on the bus she so pictures of the building she lived in flattened to the ground. memories of a lifetime gone. mozilla, good you, my son has no home. neither do i have my flat anymore. nothing left. everything i

own is on me now. i won't ever be back. there still civilians remaining at this deed works. the u. n. is hoping for another evacuation soon. more people who will leave their home towns no when they leave behind a life that will never be again. had abdul hamid al jazeera, as i put a jack in cranes, president says, evacuation so far are a good start, but there's still more work to do. delivery burger as you order. sure. that's what it wanted. i've been told many times that we won't be able to save anyone that as of stole so that it is impossible. and to day a 156 people are ins. apparition, she is not a victory yet, but it's already a result. and i believe that there is a chance to save others of our people. ruby was one of our go from or of course, who continued to do everything to get all our people added. merrier. poland has lost all. it's difficult what we need every one who is still there,

both civilians and soldiers. there hasn't been a single day when we weren't dealing with this issue when our people were not trying to solve it. and i'm also alanine now and i have been father protest across the us after a leaked draft opinion by the supreme court suggested abortion could be outlawed in several states. pro abortion rights activists are demanding national laws to protect access to the procedure. she upper tansy reports from washington, d. c. i thousands gathered outside the supreme court on tuesday afternoon to protest the leet. draft opinion that was reported to have the support of 5 conservative justices and opinion. that concludes that since those who wrote the constitution did not explicitly protect women's reproductive rights than previous judgments in training, a women's right to truth had no basis in the law. and that we are long past the point that we was protested well, how many decades ago,

but it's terrifying is a handful of anti abortion rights. protests roadside the court to my sales force in murder, but flows seeking to end abortion access. this has been the goal since 1973 when justice is ruled in favor of women's reproductive rights. in the case of robi weight and justice, robert said that that was not in chick draft. we're very happy to hear that and we're hopefully, i will stay with that draft and that will be the decision to overturn roe vs wade. the white house as it is prepared for whatever the actual verdict is. but the president warned that the reasoning underpinning the draft opinion has far reaching implications and basically says, all the decisions related to your private life, or whether or not you decided to see the child. and i was watching them on the voice range of other decision whether the how you raise your child. what does this do? does this mean that in florida they can decide in the past,

the law saying that same sex marriage is not visible? the u. s. has the worst maternal mortality rate in the industrialized world. those hear a word back terrible metric could now deteriorate even further. the sign was in fire, but conversations with many women today, i don't think that anybody has an idea of what the real world consequences are. and especially those who are in a position of privilege and like everybody on the supreme court, myself did not. there's a lot of really potential for harm, but there was hope to oppose if consistently shane 70 percent of americans are against outlawing abortion. the democrats seem to be hoping for a bump in town out in november's mid term elections from those who support female, reproductive rights. but there is an awareness had in the past when the democrats about the opportunity to codify a woman's right to choose. they failed to do so. she had time to al jazeera washington, south korea and japan say north korea has find

a ballistic missile over its east coast towards the theme. if it was launched from the sonata area and the north quiz, 14th known weapons, test this year, live to correspondent in so rob mcbride and rob, we're getting a few more details about this. don't john? the response from south korea? what are we hearing? that's right. the south korean military confirming that this was a ballistic missile, but where they relatively a short flight path, certainly compared with and what more recent or missile launches. they say that it reached a, an, a total altitude of 780 kilometers and flew a total distance of nearly 500 kilometers east landing in this sea that separates japan and the korean peninsula. now, south korea has a strongly condemned this launched. i, japanese prime minister has said that it's totally unacceptable. and what we don't know exactly at this stage, what type of missile this was. interestingly,

it was launched from this district called soon and which is just outside the capital pyongyang from where north korea a launched at the end of march, an icbm, that's an intercontinental ballistic missile, a sort of weapon capable of reaching the continental united states and the kind of weapon that north korea has not tested since 2017. so that was seen as a major development major escalation. now there's some debate over whether that miss out was fired was a why song 15 or a more powerful, more recent why? song? 17 icbm. but both of those types of missiles were on display at this very large parade that was held last week in pyongyang. this was the anniversary of the founding of north korea's military. when also on display were other weaponry that the north koreans have been developing. a very actively in recent years, such as submarine launched, ballistic missiles and hypersonic missiles, attended by kim john, run the north korean leader vowing to speed up the development of his nuclear

arsenal. this is the 14th and a string of miss our launch as this year. why now? that's right, i mean there has been an uptake in it, sir, testing of missiles, i think january set a record for the number of missile launches. but the timing is everything with these launches from north korea's perspective. and it's a very interesting transition. time here in south korea, we are coming to the end of the presidency of moon jay in the liberal president who has been engaging in dialogue with an. ready author attempting to at least or all throughout his presidency. these are his last days in office units. so y'all takes over next week, his inauguration, he is the and inc, incoming president. he is a conservative who has vowed to take a much stronger, harder line with north korea. we're also seeing at the moment and the regular spring exercises between the south korean and u. s. military, they are much smaller than they have been in the past. sometimes simply command and

control exercises desktop, exercises but next week, for example, there are add rules that are going to be taking place in south korea so that they could well be sending a message or that always and angers and north korea. and of course, president joe biden from united states is heading this way. he will be coming to south korea and then going on to japan and visiting with united states, most important allies in this part of the world. and a comes at a time where the u. s are pushing the un security council for yet more sanctions against north korea, for it's an increase in missile testing and for allegedly circumventing some of the existing sanctions. so this probably is a good opportunity from the north korea's point of view to send a message about that um upright report in fm cell. thanks so much. politicians in the democratic republic of congo have voted to extend martial law into eastern provinces. the military, along with forces from neighbouring uganda,

were fighting against armed groups or a wide spread reports of mass killings, abductions and sexual violence. aro, matessa reports is not the 1st time in peace in the democratic republic of congo. have voted to extend the state of siege in the east of the country. it's happened before, and each time martial law has been extended by 15 days on student concert. later, this is will not have been assured by the president of the parliament that this is the last vote on the state of siege. we now have to find other solutions off the 15 days to try and in the conflict, president village is the katie announced the state of siege in may last year. parliamentarians say the situation in the east is still volatile. armed, malicious and into camino violence have killed thousands of people, the congolese army, uganda forces, and the u. n. t. a largest peacekeeping mission monasco, a trying to stabilize the region. but the violence in north q and a to the provinces seems to be getting worse. joker grew less,

in particular for the north west of britain and island. we have got some thundershowers expected on wednesday with that rain, but by the time we get into thursday, well, we will see some sunshine coming back into the south, the temperature picking up in london and we'll see temperatures pick up across scandinavia. but they are sitting slightly below the average here it's rather dry picture, which is a bit of a wintry mix coming in to the north of norway. now we are going to see the rain intensify from northern areas of a city. by the time we get into thursday with some snow falling on the alps, but for the balkans, for greece and turkey, it isn't improving picture a lot of wolves coming into athens there and it's going to improve as well for the south of spain in particular. we have a closer look on wednesday. we what's very heavy fools to come. but as we go into thursday, it pulls to algeria and sunshine comes back into madrid. ah

frank assessments, what are the political risks? robotic russian, oil, gas for western leaders, pull sanctions on russian never generic sports, telephone was informed opinions, france, he's not abandoning to fight against jedi, still resumed media debt. going to be arching from leisure and from shod critical debate. could china actually help in russia's invasion of ukraine in depth analysis of the days global headlines inside story on al jazeera lou. ah, again, you're watching al jazeera, his reminder of our top stories this ella. european union has proposed a complete ban on all russian oil imports by the end of this year. the appeal

commission chief as live on the land has also announced another round of sanctions targeting russian banks and high ranking officers. suspected of committing war crimes. south korea and japan say north grant has find the ballistic missile over its east coast. was the sea. they say it was launched from this to none area. it would be north chris 14th known weapons test this year. and pro, and anti abortion protests, as of right across the us after an unprecedented league of a draft opinion from the supreme court. it suggests women's right to abortion, and america could be reversed. victoria robinson is the founder of reassemble life as an anti abortion rights organization. she says those who support abortion rights, overstating what will change if more restrictions and bands come into place. i would say the democrats and the pro abortion industry, which is a multi $1000000000.00 industry by the way. so i can understand why they're nervous

right now. i would say to them, if you're so sure, this is what the majority of americans want and what's the big deal, let it go back to the state so that each state can vote whether they want abortion in their state or not. i don't think that that's going to be legal to penalize people discriminate against someone who because of their economic status. i would say that that's going to probably end up going to the states and there will be organizations that will rise up to help women get abortions if they want them. the thing that the misconception about road, the way being overturned is that women won't be able to get abortions, is going to be state to state because women will still be have access to abortions . i would say there are pregnancy resource centers across the country in the united states and by a margin of 3 or 4 to one abortion clinic that are there to give free resources to women who find themselves in an unplanned pregnancy. whether they, if they choose life with diapers, with baby clothing the formula, they need all to, to give them that free access to health. so i would say to the democrats in the pro

aborts, put your money where your mouth is, offer the same resources to women who want to continue to have abortions in those states that don't offer abortion any longer. once rode the way is overturned. now you're going to have the opportunity to prove you care so much about women. rival gangs have been fighting and haiti's capital for a 2nd week. hundreds of families have been forced to flee the homes in puerto prince. these 20 people were killed last week. the police have been patrolling the streets but have yet to regain control of at least 4 districts. the ones actually general says attacks in africa. so hell region have grown from a regional issue into a global one until terrace made the remarks during his tour of west africa weighs 50, cynical nyja nigeria club hoc reports from deco south of the saras new years to la berry region by the maryan border is a remote refugee camp where people live in fear,

tolling efforts to return power to civilian rule, human rights group accused maryan soldiers and recently deployed russian fighters linked to the wagner group of torture and perpetrating massacres on civilians. it has become increasingly difficult for the un to fulfill its mandate of protecting the mountain people, many of whom are now flee their country. nicholas hawk al jazeera human rights watch once the international criminal court to investigate allegations of murder and torture in central african republic. when the says, say, the men involved were russian, several governments and the un say the forces include members of the wagner group as a private russian military security contractor, with links with the kremlin. and 2018 central african republic agreed to allow former russian military officers train its forces, rushing linked troops in the country don't wear designated uniforms nor official insignia. the rights group interviewed at least 20 people who said they saw russian

speaking men who carried military grade weapons committing abuses between 20192021. and one incident they said at least 12 on the armed men were killed near the town of boffin goa lewis mc. gay is the central african director at human rights. what he says, his organization has seen some horrific examples of torture. we've been documenting crimes committed by russian linked military since 2019 these started as crimes of arbitrary detention and accusing civilians of being rebels and some pretty agree just cases of torture. but it was really last year when we really started getting back on the ground in the central african republic that we started to get these really, really horrific cases of extra judicial execution to mary mary executions that had been carried out by the russian forces. and so we decided today to,

to find the publish the most egregious case that we've been able to confirm with a case in july last year. but i just want to be clear. this is probably just scratching the surface. we have many other credible allegations of cases of killings committed by these russian link forces. but to date human rights watch, we haven't been able to confirm the public level. the government continues to say these are simply russian instructors, that all that they're doing is instructing central african military. and we did present our findings to the government of the central african republic. they did not respond officially. but again, i want to reiterate at a lower levels in the government, people absolutely know what's happening and some of them are quite worried about it . several 1000 people are valued in armenia, is capital caravan accused. the government of abandoning the disputed, going to kara by border region. the police that arrested more than 200 people off to, to day,

the protests. many demonstrators calling for 5 minutes to nicole pershing meandra resign, accusing him of planning to give up the territory to as a by john. the 2 went to war in the region and 2020, which ended with a russian broker agreements. attention is being drawn to the way that technology is being used against journalists. that's the theme of this year. the annual press freedom conference being held in europe. why? to the bo reports from punter dell essay. the technology like never before, is being used to curtail freedom of speech around the world. mile and spyware, artificial intelligence and social media have become the chosen tools by government to suppress defend heavy states my love, i was a victim of the spy, where began, which was developed by an israeli company. she was detained for over a year in her country as a virgin, and i saw the list of the number like 99 number from my phone book.

we're in that least 99 people whom i know who are in that live. they've been effective to. and those are know those for not only georgia, listen, lawyers, those, those are also activists, political activists whose numbers i have. hundreds of people have gathered in the u . y, and coastal city of valley. in an effort to help find ways to protect freedom of speech. this conference is hosting by unesco, and the theme of this conference is journalism under digital feed, which shows the magnitude of the problem how journalists are not only addressed in war zones or conflict areas, but also are subject to online harassment and surveillance. and that's why hundreds of journalists, members of international organizations than many others have gathered here to try to prevent technology from being used to persecute free media. they were in ukraine

a temporary ban on any use or transfer sale of this kind of intrusive electronic surveillance. and then use that time of the ban to rec or string, the national laws to string them international laws on trade. and the reason why we were wanting this moratorium futon is because we know journalist themselves have exposed stories about how lives are being threatened. individual lives are being destroyed, journalists are trying to adapt to surveillance and digital attacks for every one here. awareness and finding a legal framework is crucial to defend free press. that is, i will, i'll just see that boon, delete the old away. now dozens of shells embedded in a pavement outside a shopping center in thailand have been found to be fossils of an extinct marine creature. paleontologist say the snail shaped specimens in bangkok or type of
