a series of weapons test this year, north korea was accused safari, another ballistic missile. i protest as much for abortion rights on to supreme court leaks suggest the landmark ruling could be overturned and martial law is kept in place in eastern democratic republic of congo, where the army is fighting at least 100 armed groups. their opinion has proposed a complete ban on all russian oil imports. by the end of this year, european commission present us lavonne de leon has proposed it be done in phases over the next 6 months. it would be a significant step for european countries that rely heavily on russian energy of a new sanctions have also been announced on russian banks as well as military leaders behind alleged atrocities. we will make sure that we phase out russian oil

in an orderly fashion. so in a way that allows us and our partners to secure alternative supply routes and at the same time, be very careful that we minimize the impact on the global market. with all these steps, we are depriving the russian economy from its ability to diversify and to modernize 14 wanted to wipe out ukraine from the map. and he will clearly not succeed. don't again, joins us now live from berlin and dominic banning rushes. oil is the big headline here of course, but do tell us about the whole sanctions package that has been proposed by von the lamb as far as we know so far, there are several stages to this and it's not just oil, as he was saying, laura, so 1st things, 1st, some financial institutions are going to find themselves effectively booted out of

the swift transaction system. perhaps the most notable example of that is spelled back in particularly large financial institutions is going to find itself, as i say, kicked out of swift pretty swiftly as it were. and then in so far as these oil embargo is concerned, well, we know it's 2 different phases. the 1st regards crude oil, which are still on the line president, the commission says, should be embargoed within 6 months, then there is refined oil, which clearly is a different type which is of more use to different industries and to, to car drivers and people in the automotive industry as well that will be phase that within 8 months, in other words, by the end of the year. but the devil here really is in the details because as strong as the wording president, funder line came up with there is so it must be said is the level of opposition from certain leaders in europe, notably victor or been leader of hungary who is said that he has great difficulties

or his representatives have said that their country have very grave difficulties. indeed with what has been proposed, the reality being that they really don't like them and they may well try to stop them. therefore, there are those who say it may be that what emerges from the you will allow the hungarians to opt out as it were of this elements of embargo. that element isn't entirely clear. and of course, whatever president funder lion proposes must be accepted by all member states. so as i say, devil in the details or that's a slightly easier proposal to get through the e u as a recovery plan for ukraine. here we're very much looking ahead to after the war only very much. so there is on one side trying to bolster trying to buttress the ukrainian economy,

the ukrainian defense systems that are being used, deployed against russia right now. but there is in people's minds what do we do thereafter? what sort of financial packages can be put in place to help the ukrainians in one sense metaphorically get back on their feet in an economic sense? not so much detail their lot solve lofty aspirations coming from president funder lion, but not a great deal of detail. now the one thing we know, the ukrainian government would really like is a very quick authorization accession of their country into the you. now, president fonder, lying on her own, can't do that. the question will be what the other, what the other supports will be from other member states to allow the ukrainians into the you knowing that. busy there are some countries who are, if not necessarily implacably opposed to it, who aren't exactly really jumping at the bit to get the ukrainians into the you. so

as i say, not a great deal of detail about what that recovery plan might entail. and so lofty aspiration right now. ok, thanks very much for the updates. at dominic came genius that from berlin, ukrainian officials and the un say they hope they can keep bringing more civilians out of a bombed out. still plant in the shattered port, city of mario pole. some civilians in scores of ukrainian fighters, a cell hold up in the vicinity that surrounded by russian forces. those evacuated so far have been taken to relative safety and aperture. from where hot abdul hamid reports. busy peal and 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 for them. a 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 good. they've got it in the moment either, but he still can, he can start 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 a pull any more. i felt threatened wagner in there had gone with her daughter to the as of styles. deed 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. note we, 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 discover the are the russian federation. soldiers discovered mine since mon expirence i had to be cleared. so we had 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. why also? i don't know who fog am. it stopped almost as soon as it started and that was really a despite the risks. and i 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. no, it isn't as a law. ah, what? no, 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 shell into 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 valentino,

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. 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, but they're still civilians remaining at this deed works. the u. n. is hoping for another evacuation soon. more people who will leave their home towns knowing they leave behind a life that will never be again. had abdul hamid al jazeera is upward egypt, ukraine's residence as evacuation so far are a good start,

but there's still more work to do. delivery boundaries, you should atlanta, i've been told many times that we won't be able to save anyone. and as of stall that it is impossible. and to day a 156 people are ins appreciates. she is not a victory, but it's already a result. and i believe that there was a chance to save others of our people. but one of them, of course, who will continue to do everything to get all our people as a married colon as well. it's difficult, but we need everyone who is still there, 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. well, protests have been held across the us after a leak draft opinion by the supreme court suggested abortion could be outlawed in several states. activists supporting abortion rights of the mounting national law to protect women's access to the procedure. she returns the reports from washington, dc. ah,

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 choose had no basis in the law. and that we are long past. the point that we was protested about how many decades ago, but it's terrifying is a handful of anti abortion rights protested roadside. the court to i say morrison is murdered, but flows seeking to end abortion access. this has been the goal since 1973. what justice is ruled in favor of women's reproductive rights? in the case of roe v wade, 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 was that the reasoning underpinning the draft opinion has far reaching implications. and basically says, all the decisions related to your private life and whether or not you decide to conceive a child or not, whether i'm on the voice of other decision, whether the, how you raise your child. what does this do? does this mean that in florida they can decide they're going to pass along saying that same sex marriage is not visible? the u. s. has the worst maternal mortality rate in the industrialized world, those here a word that terrible metric could now deteriorate even further. the sign was inspired by 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 headed in the past when the democrats about the opportunity to codify a woman's right to choose. they failed to do so. she ever townsley al jazeera washington south korea and japan say north korea has fired a ballistic missile over its east coast towards the seam and say it was launched from the sonata area. it would be north to his 14th known weapons test this year. well, the bride has more from sol, 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 a missile launches, they say that it reached her and a total altitude of 780 kilometers and flu,
