ferocity and come to life because that's the only way we can try to solve any of these problems is together. that's why it's so important we make those connections aah! demonstrate as to fly curfew in sri lanka to demand the president's resignation. as after his brother, step dump is prime minister. ah, 11 o'clock, this is out there a life and also coming up celebrations and protests in the philippines. the son of a controversial, former president, looks likely to become the next leader. on the far the coastal ukrainian city,

vanessa is hit by russian missiles while the u. s. as president vladimir putin is trying to rewrite history ah, saw through his new president calls on killing young to give up its nuclear weapons in exchange for major economic aid. it is in speech ah certainly 7 people are being killed, including a member of parliament, off to rival demonstrations, escalated into st. battles in the sri lankan capital of columba. it was bought by the worst economic crisis and decades, and the governments in ability to address it. the prime minister has stepped down into his brother. the president is under pressure to go to. well for them. this is more from columbus. as things intensified late into the night yesterday, the authorities decided to extend that island wide curfew into the early. 8 hours

of wednesday morning, but as you can see around me may be over my shoulder. i mean, the one thing that's as large as life is a smouldering bus. and there are many of those dotting colombo ah, basically remnants of water protesters had set on the buses that brought all of these my, him, the roger boxes, supporters for that meeting that the prime minister had before. they then went and unleashed violence on protest. her who had been calling for the resignation of the raja fox brothers and the government. so a large military presence in colombo that we've been driving around and seeing. we hear that this is the same around the country as well as the authorities try to get a handle on and get the situation of tensions that really are went out of control last evening. i'm under under basically some semblance of normalcy and

control. so that seems to be working so far. we haven't seen these of sort of a groups going around or looking for my mind, the roger herself punch supporters or mobs that had created violence. things seem to have sort of been, are quietened down. but despite the curfew, there are people on the streets, as you can probably see, milling around, even this burning bus. the macos family looked set to return to power in the philippines on official results of the presidential election suggested for marcus junior could become the next leader 36 years after his father was overthrown in a revolution. jamila allen dugan repulsed not from manila as vote counting got turned away, it appeared for it didn't mark as junior, was searching ahead. he's the son and name seek of the former philippine president, described by many as a dictator and ousted in 1986 revolution,

or that they are called this not done. i started or worked, but i wanted to issue a short statement. and it essentially is a statement of gratitude to all of those who have been with us in this long and sometimes very difficult journey. you the 10 candidates are running, but for the presidency venue, it's widely considered a 2 person race, vice president, lenny robledo, who is also the leader of the opposition, is trailing behind marcus junior. initial results show a lead, so wide pool experts believe it is unlikely. robledo can catch up case ending up was up in the wilder. i'm with you in the belief that the elections must respect the full voice and well of the people my life. it is important that the people continued their belief and respect for democracy. more than 60000000 filipinos voted for the successor to president rodrigo, to 30 in one of ages,

oldest democracies. oh, here in one of the biggest polling presence in manila voting day was marked with frustration. about malfunctioning boating machines. people lined up for hours and refused to leave, even as the poles officially closed. with global mom, brittany, lung ward. oh, we want to be here. one. we want to see our robots going through the machines and see the receipt. some of them looks big as a gustavo from about they in both of us, we refused to leave our posts. this election is too important and every vote is secret. the election commission assures the public that it is very much in control, and the sanctity of the votes is still protected. a marcus presidency would mean an extra ordinary return for a family. there was forcibly removed from power 3 decades ago through people power and could become the most consequential election in recent philippine history jamal

alan doug and al jazeera manila. well, the results of already spot protests against voting irregularities. let's hear now from florence murray, who has more from manila. earlier behind me, there was a crowd of around 300 to 500 people protesting outside the commission on election. a buildings saying that there has been electro fraud. they're referring to the fact that people say they haven't been able to vote a 1800 vote counting machines were not working properly. now that although is just a small fraction of the total number of vote counting machines that still represents doubled the number of machines that didn't work in the last 2 elections . now also, if you ask people who remember what life was really like in the philippines under martial law, during marco's seniors administration, they will say that this victory was only made possible or author this presumptuous victory. i'm because the official results have not been announced yet. they will

say that it has only be made possible because of a misinformation campaign now, but of course if you ask an marcos supports, his mark was junior supporters. it is a time to celebration in the early hours of tuesday morning, and some of them were there outside marco's campaign headquarters in manila, chanting, marco's juniors name, waving flags. it's quite hard to say, with a certain degree of certainty, what sort of policies are hidden. his visit ministration and incoming administration will have because the marcus campaign has been very thin on details and that has been very limited media engagement, at least where macos junior is concerned. but there are certain remarks that he's made that we've been able to glean now he's likely to be pro china, just like its predecessor due today. he's also likely to am he, but he's also said he supposed to 10 days, controversial war on drugs which has killed thousands of people. the mirror mirror poll says at least a 100 civilian men,

remain trapped in the steelworks besieged by russian forces. ukrainian officials said of the weekend, but all women, children, and the elderly, had been rescued 15 trumped by intense rushing tights along with hundreds of soldiers refusing to surrender. say they will fight to the end. at least one person has been killed and 5 injured during rush and shelling of ukraine, southern port city for desa. the crate military says shopping center and warehouse were hit. that has faced sporadic bombardment of the city was largely spread in the 1st phase of rushes invasion. in the past week. several towns in the south have been involved. the strikes force, the council president to take cover shall. michelle was visiting the city to emphasize its importance, great exports that have been blocked by the war. the delays are adding to a global food crisis. ukraine's president for the winds lensky as cold on the international community to pressure russia into using it. blockade ports.

initially, the president charles michelle visited odessa today, he saw with his own eyes what the block see me with for the 1st time in decades in odessa there is no usual movement at the merchant fleet. no port work, ordinary life connected with the sea is blocked by russia, and this is a blow not only to ukraine, without our agricultural exports. dozens of countries around the world are already on the brink of food shortages. and overtime, the situation can become frankly terrible. the u. s. is accused russia president vladimir putin of trying to rewrite history during his speech to martin victory de the annual celebration of the defeat of nazi germany in 1945 ended with flowers display in moscow. earlier putin led the traditional parade and he told russian forces fighting in ukraine for the motherland and its future. he didn't denounce victory in ukraine, nor give any indication when he thought the war might end. what we saw president couldn't do is, is, is give

a version of revisionist history that took the form of this information that we have seen to commonly as the russian playbook. now what is fortunate is that we are all aware reporters around the world are aware. europeans are where americans are aware of the disinformation factory that president putin and the kremlin seemed to be. but the suggestion that this war, that was prompted by directed by president putin was prompted by western aggression or western plans is patently false and absurd. the new president of south korea has been sworn in but unit. so y'all has a tough job ahead. after his narrow election, when the conservative has a record low approval rating for any new coming to the presidency from pride reports from this very in ceremony. and so the, you know, the ration of the insecure, potentially harold's a new political direction for south korea. and the new place for it in the world.

instead of the previous liberal administration's relentless pursuit of dialogue with north korea over d nuclear, zation conservative view says he will take a harder line up while north curious nuclear weapon programs are a threat not only to our security and debt of northeast asia, the door to dialogue will remain open so that we can peacefully resolve this threat . faced with north korea is increased weapons testing and rhetoric. yoon has promised to restore relations with neighboring japan and maintain close the ties with traditional ally the united states. the return of a conservative administration in south korea is likely to further push nations into camps similar to the cold war. rival rays of the last century. on the one side, the united states and its ne, asian allies, japan and south korea, and all the other loosely aligned russia in china,

supporting north korea. given south korea is economic dependence on china. the out going south korean president, moon j in, was often accused of not being tougher on bay, june territorial assertiveness on alleged human rights abuses you and says his administration will be different. it korea is the largest economy in the world. it is incumbent upon us to take on a greater role benefiting our sector as a global leader remark, actually protect and promote university alias and norms that are based on freedom and respect for human. right. but you comes into this job with no previous political experience and a very low approval rating. he may find his early zeal tempered by the realities of office. south korea is a critical, it depends upon the method market of china and the energy supply from russia.

so south korea has to keep many different security and can be interested in good balance and harmony. as the new president begins, work south korea is allies and adversaries alike are watching closely. rob mcbride al jazeera, so i still had her not 0 ecuador growing problem with gang violence fighting between rival drug cartels in the prison. please dozens dead or on the run class. i'm john. 100 in arkansas were a conference. it is working on getting the key out of the supply chain ah, with plenty of showers out seasonal showers in probably the southern philippines and west papua the cloud shows rain

a battle for change, one by the political establishment. now the movement for a new lebanon that began in late 2019, has shifted its focus from the street to the ballot box. different coalition to borne from the uprising are contesting the upcoming elections. many of the candidates are young and optimistic, but they know political change won't be easy. water, i don't believe that suffered for 30, from the corruption and all kinds of solutions we need. we know that we need time to change. we want to go into the parliament side of the church from inside. yeah. they're up against the sectarian based system of power sharing and leaders who are more powerful than the state. politicians largely blamed for the countries economic collapse these electrons, although from the outside our democratic, they're actually run by the regime itself. and the regime has proven to use different fraudulent tools to secure its when so from clientele as them to violence,

to repression and commendation. and even manipulating vote counting which we saw on the 2018 elections. but those empowers still have supporters and they have been accused of using violence. in this incident, the opposition was prevented from launching its campaign in the electoral stronghold of the muslim she, our group has below and among i'll be, i think, harlem if the him we accused the forces in charge of the region of being behind that. and they are known to prevent any opposition activity in lebanon, sectarian and political divisions are deep, and the opposition to was unable to unite to contest the elections. this benefit to the political leadership, which also relies on an electoral law that entrenched victorian politics for those wanting change. this battle is about building a strong civil and functioning states. but they are seen as politically immature

and criticized for lacking organisation and failing to appeal to the masses. in the last election, those campaigning for civil society in lebanon known as the change forces, 11 seats in the 128 member parliament. this time, they're expecting to gain a few more, but not enough to change the system, but for them, the election is a necessary battle in a long war. then their oceans, either beta q x root has accept the resignation of the government. more than a month after the cabinet quit a prime minister, a sub a highly to saba. and his covenant decided to step down in april ahead of a no conference route at adel. supper has been asked to remain in a can't take a row for now more than 70 people. it being killed in democratic republic of congo and separate attacks of a 2 days gunman carried out the attacks in to re province. one of 2 regions where a state of emergency was extended last week. most of the victims of women and children fling armed groups attacking the villages. the government says they are

also we will focus resources that are disposed towards determining what happened. and if this implies a crime is taking place, we will apply the full force of the law. the heat deb and his family says the case highlights the failures of authorities, both to protect women in mexico and to solve crimes committed against them. what was sylvia? devanie was missing for several days. the state prosecutor's office didn't do their job correctly. my mistake was trusting the prosecutor's office. disappearances are an all too common problem, inv alone in just the 1st few months of this year. more than 60 women have been reported missing in the city of monterey alone. head out of the martinez has been looking for his sister for more than a month now. he says, assistance from the government in finding her has been like, having no help at all. but i me a better the atom for me the 1st 16 days she was missing wasted, which is very important. the longest it remains missing is evidence. your 3rd is not doing a good job. many in this part of mexico say that

a lot of the complaints about the government lacking resources, having poor training and a tendency by authorities to downplay the seriousness of the problem can be traced back decades. e, y like is that when a salise, his daughter, brenda went missing in 2011. though brenda was later found dead. one a has since dedicated her time to helping other families find that they are missing, loved ones alive, and to call on the government to do more about missing persons cases. no. c, g, as in dog lawson is moss. m a. bed. it's the same investigators as always, and the same inconsistencies as 2011. the authorities don't do their jobs, right. they say they have equipment that we looked into this. and the only thing year is their job titles. the case of devany escobar sparked protests across mexico, once again shining a spotlight on the worsening problem of impunity. which experts say fuels higher

lead to global shortages as short staffed cargo companies, left shipping containers behind on the dock. now the war in ukraine has sent fuel prices and the cost of shipping, sorry. just a demand for a broad range of consumer goods begins to fall. supply chain experts call that the bull whip effect. you have tons of inventory and, and not enough inventory, and then you overreact. and you just keep going through this vicious cycle and, and we're, we've seen that over the last couple of years, and i think we're now headed in the other direction. experts predict the recession, a mom shipper's within much in that could lead to a u. s. and possibly a global economic downturn in a really corner of northwest arkansas. many of those experts from trucking companies, leading universities, the pentagon and elsewhere, have gathered at a conference on the future of the supply chain in hopes of staving off the worst.

the pandemic and the warning ukraine have put kinks in the supply chain and that is made the process of getting goods for manufacturer to consumer, more expensive and more complicated. the people at this conference are working on making that all smoother and less expensive. after 2 rough years, one major kink in the supply chain in the u. s. has been assurity give drivers, trends forces are kind of ober for shippers acting as an intermediary to link trucking companies with drivers. there's a bottlenecks there right now because there aren't enough drivers to sit in those seats in those trucks to get those the trucks in the goods deliver another solution, self driving trucks like those made by torque, a subsidiary of daimler trucking. it's been a really unhappy and it's going to change sounds like you're not talking about entirely replacing human dr. absolutely. now, we're here to help companies when driving attention to build a void and help them with new pandemic variance in no
