perilous exploits both at the frontline and at the home front. i chill, new military hardware was on display as the parade made its way from red square through the streets of moscow. it's designed to send a message, but at a time when russian forces are struggling to gain the upper hand in ukraine, it's also a show force for national consumption. this civil appears to be mark more difficult and bladder as an ah, we expect. we expect that this will be all bottled or, or done boss will continue our operable grade until 0. i'm middle bob now summer and zan are based on that. his uncles, his bottle and on boss on your political decision. so now will be made with few outright victories in ukraine. some russians had feared putin would use

this occasion to announce national mobilization and formerly declare war against ukraine. that didn't happen. instead, putin said, russia must ensure there is never another world war. he cranium, president vladimir zalinski, had to defy message for moscow. that's it started olu dollars here. but on february 24, russia launched an offensive step money. the same mistake has been made by every occupy who's come to our land. we have survived various world, and they've all had one ending us. our land was planted with bullets and shell, but not enemy was able to take roots here. this is a day that unites most russians in remembrance and national pride. ukrainian western leaders say roches invasion of ukraine, is repeating the horrors of the past victoria gate and be al jazeera. or let's i return now to our top story until anchors prime minister mander roger proxy has

quit said, following growing angry of the on a nation's economic crisis, and ongoing widespread protests. we can speak to a correspondent, michelle fernandez his life was in columbia. i mel prussia has been growing on the government. tell us more about what's happening so refined the lee after weeks and weeks of demands that the government and the roger boxes that's present gotta be roger box. and his brother or the prime minister, my and the roger boxer resign. we've had one of them. that's a prime minister handing over his resignation to the president and designing this has been a sort of been in the offing for a few days if not weeks now, where the president and the prime minister have been somewhat at loggerheads, trying to see which one blinks 1st, almost, and we've just heard that the prime minister obviously has given him his

resignation. now there's been from this morning, there's been an outbreak of clashes and violence in an unprecedented manner. we had thousands of supporters of mind, roger boxer coming in to his official residence temporaries in colombo, you know, to sort of a show of force to demonstrate that he still has support. but unfortunately, where that went wrong is the very real belligerent lot. he, he addressed this gathering of a few 1000 people, and after that they came outside that official residence. they set upon a camp of anti government protesters who had set up outside the prime minister's residence, the assorted people, the set fire to their tents. they pulled down their banners and then they started walking towards the presidential secretary, which was down the road that secretary has been sort of besieged and surrounded for the last month by anti government protested. and the police,

even though they tried to sort of mount a sort of a defense and prevent the people they just walked through the police. and that's why lot of people are critical. they're accusing the police of allowing these people to come into clashes with the anti government protesters at. gotta go village and they're completely bull doors. the village through the problem now is there is violence because people, as we have been reporting for weeks and weeks have come to the end of their tolerance. so this show of force is not being taken likely lightly as much as people kind of bulldozed in terms of that number. we're hearing reports and number of them as those supporters try to go back to their villagers and to their areas. those buses are being set upon by members of the public by organized groups. people are being pulled out of these buses because people are so fed up. they are not going to tolerate having a be set upon these anti government producers. so it's

a me to all of this that we've finally had. my and the roger pox of the prime minister's resignation. right? so the prime minister has gone, but his younger brother is still president. so will this resignation be enough to satisfy the protest? put it this way, it is highly unlikely because at the time that the president, even at the early stages of the protest, ah, he had the entire cabinet resigned. on his request, he appointed a new cabinet of pretty much a majority. young faces of new, of new faces, new and fresh impedes. but protest. her said look, this is not going to pull wool over our eyes. we are saying, go to go. we want the roger boxes to go. and we won't be in tie a government machine to be sort of swept clean. so almost to, you know, sacrificing the prime minister. my am the roger boxer, a for the president. survival is not something that's going to go down easily with

the protesters. they have honestly spoken again and again in recent days and said nothing short of a clean sweep of the roger boxes and of this government however, will have to see the coming hours, how they react. but just judging from what they have been saying and doing over the past month, they're unlikely to be appeased, or i'm in el, thanks very much indeed for that's michelle fernandez. there with an uses relinquish permanent. some him to roger proxy has resigned. a pulse have now closed in the philippines where voters have been choosing the next president. results were expected of the next fail to attend candidates vying for the top job. front runner friedman macos junior, caught his violet earlier. he's the son of a former controversial leader that speech miller than 30 minutes to pulling station in mina and jamila. it's

particularly also with the escalation that we've seen around the approximate compound. you've had increased rhetoric coming out of garza from your sin, war gases leader. they are calling for palestinians to carry out individual attacks . there has been a lot of individual attack 6 or 7 over the last couple of months. the last one in a lad, the 2 palestinians were arrested on sunday. they carried out an attack with an axe and with a knife, killing 3 israelis. now certainly there is a lot of rhetoric on both sides from these rallies and from the palestinians, particularly have mass. but certainly from what we understand behind the scenes, there are diplomatic efforts to try to calm tensions and certainly from what we understand. also, we're told that neither side, once a massive escalator, the wearing of masks remains popular in south grid despite the government relaxing current of ours rules that we could get. robert bryan has more in this from the capital. so when mosque mandates have been lifted in other parts of the world that

have been scenes of need you relation of finally dispensing with the things after 2 years of breathing, your own breath. but south korea went it out last monday, but not outdoors were no longer mandatory, but only recommended. this was the result. from a few exceptions, most most remaining firmly in place. it's now a week later time enough you would have thought for the message to be getting through. you don't have to wear it. no, none of it. i still have to wear a mask and doors. it's so and convenient to take it off and put it back on again. i have not being infected yet, and i believe the virus can still spread to others, even outdoor cells must what's going on. i also want to take off the mask, because if i just think about my convenience and get infected, i could spread the virus to others. apart from some pandemic fatigue like anywhere

else, south koreans have gained a reputation in the past couple of years for public spirited cooperation that probably accounts for the continued mosque wearing. but this is also a society obsessed by looks. and it's thought that women have welcome the john not to have to wear so much makeup, old men to shave so often. and then of course, we've called metric surgery being so popular here. it's thought some people may use the mask wearing as a way of having any number of procedures without anyone ever finding out. economist, rodrigo chavez has been sworn in as customer because new president, former world bank official, is promising to shake up what he calls a broken political system that's under ramp, yet he has more. ah, handover of power in costa rica, rodrigo travis is presented the presidential sash after running a successful campaign. as a political maverick who promised to clean up

a broken system. a message he repeated at easy, now he ration c r k. no, it is time to leave behind the old practices that the costa rican people, rightly fault us with. there is no difference between the ruling party and the opposition. if the political class fails, once again, our country could fall apart. the rise of the former world bank official has surprised many. he emerged from the shadows to the presidency after serving only 8 months as finance minister in the previous administration. he brought a popular streak to they usually subdued costa rican presidential campaign. exploiting a growing resentment against traditional parties and peoples worries of writing, unemployment crime, and the cost of living in costa rican politics. we are now in a new era total will be highly toward one of the

big changes in terms of support. and also political parties are weak and they're like total bases are small. since clinton victory, though travis has shown a more traditionally conservative side, promising to keep public finances, solvent, and reducing expectations on immediate major increases on social spending. up servers say you will face an uphill battle in an increasingly disillusioned public . his party will have only 10 of costa rica as 57 congressional seats, meaning he will have to reach agreements with a more traditional parties. there are to link questions why he's going to be able to build a team because these people don't know each other at all. and they're going to have to work together so that that's a big question. and the other big question that the biggest,

i would say it's precisely that the p o really voted for him. who wanted delagarza, then are they going to do? cuz they won't habits. cassette reek, as long been recognized as central america's most stable country, applauded for its environmental and moderate economic policies. but many believe that if chavez fails, his presidency could trigger a more and stable and terrible in time for this country. allison around betty and jessica. marilyn monroe was just 36 years old when she died, but the fascination with the actress lives on and he will holes 19 sixty's portrait of monroe is up for auction in the united states and it could become the most expensive 20th century. oh, kristen, so me, me reports now from york a modern day mona lisa, that's how the chairman of christie's is describing a portrait of marilyn monroe. andy war halls shot sage blue marilyn is up for
