but katy knew aggression is even more cause, as we're staining this. rosalind jordan explains what this law means for ukraine when the united states so sells military equipment to other countries and it's a month long process, if not years long in some cases. and that's because there are lots of parties that need to review what's being sold to make certain that there isn't a risk of it being misused or used against the u. s. and it's a national security interests and making certain that the country actually can use the equipment in the way that it says it wants to do it. what this signing of the lend lease act does is essentially wipe away all of the, all of that bureaucracy. as you noted, the u. s. has already of put in more than $3000000000.00 in a military equipment and is asking congress for another $20000000000.00 to give the

ukrainian military the equipment it needs in order to fight to you the russian aggression the invasion of its country. but that legislation, the $20000000000.00 request has not been fully considered. yet. this gives the administration the ability to give to the ukrainians equipment that the u. s. already owns. and to get it there as quickly as possible. this is really about getting rid of the rote blocks the bureaucratic red tape, as they say here in washington. it appears the marco's family may be returning to power in the philippines. unofficial results of the presidential election suggests ferdinand marco's junior has a huge lead. and he could become the next leader 36 years after his father was overthrown in a revolution. jamila allen doggone reports from manila as vote counting got our new way it appeared for it didn't mark as junior was surging ahead. he's this son and name seek of the former philippine president described by many as

a gang leader was transferred there, which officials say caused unrest. a lesson most of the big wedding pe you, but sadly 41 incarcerated people lost their lives during this incident. it can be seen that most of them, if not all of them, were killed with a knife. not with a fire on most of the bodies were exposed and attacked in the pavilions and cells. no sutherland, i'm more. la la la. we found out about the riot when my relative called to say they were exploding dynamite with firearms inside. they were entering the cells to kill every one mozilla. beto asked out, eat and not for them. we don't know if he's dead or alive yet that we want to know if he's dead or alive, that's what we want to leave. i was under ron via the joint us life and bogota in neighboring columbia. alessandra, what more do we know about the incident at this stage? well, no harm in the government has said that the battle keeps arising. just minutes

ago we found out that the attorney general's office as confirmed that the 44 people have died in this ariah 10 that at least another 13 people are seriously injured. that all says you are saying a 108 a made. b that the flat, the prison are still at lodge another $112.00 that i've also managed to escape have been instead since recaptured. but by the police, we know that this happened overnight and this prison and the city of center, the mean go, that's the roughly 3 hours to the east of the capital kito. and unfortunately, this is not the 1st time that there are serious that li riots in prison across quite door. nearly 400 a meter died in a little over

a year in 6 different incidents. and the government of equity really been scrambling to try and bring on their control the situation and the bloodshed, the president have more or less. so declared a state of emergency in 3 different regions in ecuador a little over a month ago. but the situation clearly is not under control. i was under a run peer to live rest from bug talk, think so from from bogus i thanks so much for that update. and for more on this, let's speak to adrian perez salazar, he's ecuadorian attorney and political analyst, and he joins me now from cambridge, massachusetts. may i ask you 1st, this isn't the 1st such prison riot. how often has this happened? and how does this incident compare to other incidents? thanks for having me. this is unfortunately something that has become something common in a while or incidents like these. this particular brought over

a violent incidents in presence. i will say at least once a month there is notice of, of an incident. and what i think it's key is key to understanding that these are not isolated incidents. there is the reason why a violence that keeps increasing in the presence is because they have there's a neural center of the drug cartels in a so every time there is a guy and get this huge in. busy we're in, it always manifests in the, in the extreme body guy violence that it went into prison walls. and what's the government doing to try to put a stop to all of this prison violence? it is very hard because said cartel scenic weather are better funded. and better organized and distinct. and so it's no longer an issue of keeping control of the prison. it's an issue of, we have these a, this is almost like we have terrorist cells already within the territory. so

this se, organizations are evil traded in the, in the pony said, the apartments they're evil training, they would, in the military, they're part of the, the, the penitentiary administration. so once the whole system is corrupted, it's extremely hard for me to, to, to clean the system. so we know, for example, that a weapons or bins model in a, in the food service. but it said it almost impossible to, to keep it turned up because every time you do, you do something like that they know before. but even before. busy the perfect begins, they already know exactly what's gonna happen. so it's an extremely tough situation for present muscle. it's, it's very hard, adrian, if we could just take a step back for a moment to look at the broader picture here. what are conditions like inside

prisons in ecuador, and does this violence indicate that the authorities have lost control? i think it, i think it is. they have also control. i had the ability to imprison the, the conditions are appalling. they are terrible. and this is the result of. busy decades and decades of neglect, of systematic neglect every time. busy you know, the government that needs and it's money, well you could for me for business because they're always up to the bottom run site . and now we're seeing a part of this, this partly result of that. but i insisted this is not only an issue. busy of the prison. this is a systemic issues as an issue that's in infesting the whole of their i society. unfortunately, adrian press sellers are great to get your perspective there. thanks so much for your time. thank you. protests are expected in mexico to mark one month since
