10:03 am
sharina ugly in the occupied west bank. serene was shot on the head by israeli forces while on assignment engine in, on the day of her funeral israeli forces stormed the procession, beat mourners causing poor barrister almost drop her coffin. that though didn't stop thousands of palestinians from marching through occupied east jerusalem to take part in her funeral and burial. members of the international community have condemned her killing and continue to call for an investigation. while neither abraham is standing by forest and romana. but 1st, let's speak to him on con, he's in western whistler emron. can you talk us through what we're hearing right now in is really media well at the initial reports in the last and the few hours after sharina, barclays report suggested that these really army were going to mount an investigation. and then a day later we had this washington post report that said that guns had been taken away from those soldiers in order for the investigation to be mounted. that was an
10:04 am
anonymous israeli army sauls, talking to the washington post. but here today we have an official claim and reported by the hurts newspaper that they are not going to be investigating. now this is these railey military police that are saying this now in an investigation of this nature, it's the israeli military police. the would investigate, however, any investigation means a criminal investigation needs to be open. that means, though suspects actually have to be arrested. that is an incredibly unpopular thing here in israel arresting and questioning a serving army soldier who was on an active military operation is something that these right, he's just do not like saying it's something be opposition would use against the government. it's incredibly politically a or something, but they just don't want to do here. so that's likely that the reason, according to the arrest report and according to the people we've been speaking to,
10:05 am
we have actually reached out to these really all me for confirmation that they have abandoned investigation into sharing a block list, killing. we're waiting for them to get back to us, but we also have been speaking to sharina at family, her the family of issued a statement. let me just read it to you. we were expecting this from these writing side. that's why we didn't want them to participate in the investigation. we want to hold whoever is responsible for these acts accountable. we urge the u. s. in particular, since she is a us citizen, an international community, to open a just and transparent investigation, and to put an end to these killings. now, in the last week and said, dest, the u. s. has issued a statement saying they want these railey used to investigate basically, once they stood investigated as an open and honest investigation. however, we're saying now that that investigation isn't going to take place coordinates for an investigative international investigation of so for fallen upon d'affaires as
10:06 am
well. am on con, there live for us in westbury some. thank you so much. am ron? well, let's now crossover to new to abraham. she is in ramallah in the occupied westbank needed. there was really never much confidence on the palestinian side in any sort of an israeli investigation. yes, and there has been a lot of frustration in regards to a palestinian saying that that is really is are not the ones who are going to bring her justice as many have said that they just that just the system is part of the israeli occupation and we've been saying here in the office over the past few days, how she rhian skilling has amplified a lot of the stories that she's already been covering. and this time it's accountability. we've been following a lot of cases where palestinians were killed by israeli forces fire that i can say from my to poor thing. the majority of those cases of the file gets closed. but even in that did a file that gets opened. we don't see an indictment and in case there is one, it's
10:07 am
a very, very light sentence. sometimes we a see them saying that the israeli army will i have some sort of community service and remember like for the family that loved the loved one, a young man i covered in her send me a rest lamb. he's the family was devastated because they say that feeling of injustice is what, like to the ruins. and the very fact that they lost a love to the palestinian authority in its officials with just spoken to the person of the palestinian government. and he says that eluding facts and hopefully find them. it's not something new, it's something that israel has done since it's a stablished 74 years ago. we've also spoken to lawyers to say that this is dangerous, but when you talk to palestinians, they will tell you that this is what we've been expecting all along. the palestinian prime minister of spoken to him in the days of the city was killed. he
10:08 am
set the palestinians, haven't asked us officially to intervene in the investigations, but rather said that they want to prepare a file, an independent palestinian solely investigated by palestinians. and then when that folder is, is finished, they will hand this to the relevant courses including to the american pushing for more accountability. abraham nevertheless has torn from the occupied west. thank thank you, nita. well, let's return now to the latest developments in ukraine. we can speak to us back, he's standing by for us in a backwards that's in the east acid understand this, but it's been a bit of a stalemate in the eastern parts, but strikes are continuing where you will. absolutely. the had been a stalemate. that the situation has deteriorated over the last week or so now we're just in the time called back. moot, now that's been hit constantly. an apartment building was hit by russian rocket
10:09 am
fire 2 year old was killed in that and several other children were injured. not the may of this town has told residence to leave. the situation currently is very tense . residents are leaving many people just don't want to be here anymore because also there's no electricity into this tandem. power lines were hitch and there's no electricity. so those that do remain are either the ones that don't want to leave or just can't leave. now, the situation elsewhere in the east, the russians have been making some gains around the done best region. and they've said the russians have said that they want to take the dunbar region, or we can hear constant artillery fire going out. many towns and villages have been hit by a to re fire shells. rockets, missiles, we saw anti aircraft choir go up yesterday to try to intercept a missile, the russian missile. so yes, the situation here is very tense and many tons of villages are constantly being
10:10 am
hedge. and whilst we've been standing here every 2nd, pretty much every 2nd. we can have fire coming in a night. i said, you say the situation where you are is deteriorating. now, given the developments and variable that we've seen over the last few days, can you talk us through the dynamics of the will more broadly? yes. so what it gives russia is that victory, that they wanted over a miracle that strategic port city gives them that land per door to annex crimea, that they took back in 2014. and where else elsewhere in the country, the russians were forced to retreat in terms of cheer and retreat over and pushed out from various round car keith. russia wants to concentrate on the east, on the country, and it looks like they do have, as you know, they seem to be making some advances here in the don bus region. and also they may want to concentrate on the south of the country. essentially land locking ukraine, so that is concentrating on the ports that you have. a decent also says that
10:11 am
nicholas mic alive. so the russians are concentrating their energies and their military power here in the east. and it allows them to push north from mario pool and also stock cutting. gov. tried to cut off the ukrainian military here in the east. i said back there with all the nations for us on the ground and back more. thank you. i said, well, as he was referencing their rushes, progress in mary paul has parked concerns that it could widen. it's offensive to target even more of southern ukraine. but the ukranian army says it's fighting back against russian troops, suffering low morale huddle. hamid reports now from the city of mich alive, it has become a grim, routine attacks and explosions while the city sleeps, followed by disbelief and anxiety. survivors wondering how they escaped the ferocity of a missile, loved from afar on their homes. my rat can't contain his anger fuel
10:12 am
before the loss of europe sold us out. americans don't cut me outside. we asked him to close the sky, but i didn't. why trite is to protect their children. i'm going to appeal directly to the other. do you understand to i'm talking about your son. i would to you a part with my own hands, but of all, would you bud talk burke? there few people left in, michel, i have a few weeks ago they were nearly half a 1000000. they'll still here have to rely on handouts as there's no more drinkable water. 2 with the economy at a standstill, people are selling whatever they own to pay his utility bill. he tells us, even though there are no buyers, the russians have actually reached this point on the outskirts of mc alive in the early stages of the war before being pushed back. but now with more you will and
10:13 am
that will soon region, effectively under russian control. there is concern that they could be preparing for a counter offensive obama. that might be why people are not returning to the town of bush tanka, yet. it was recaptured about a month ago. it just looks like every town village of city the russians occupied. darcy, equally us, have one will only now remembers the night it all started from her house was among the 1st hit parish. it bombs fell from the sky, leaving a huge crater. look, i see what was that yellow? these are the straps in the parachutes. canopy has now been recycled, but i threw herself these clean. an army says it's only offensive in the south. oh procurement. the moral of the enemy is low and they are not advancing on the ground because they can't break our lines. the sanctions are having an impact. they can't produce certain weapons any more. but one of the russian advantages is their
10:14 am
artillery systems. their range is longer than ours and can hit us hard. russia also holds the upper hand when it comes to attacks from the sky. and each night the people of nikolai of wonder whose turn will it be next? i doubt that i meet al jazeera michael. i have on the rather un secretary general has warned of a global food shortage in the coming months due to the war in ukraine. and tonya gutierrez says he is an intense contact with several countries to try to prevent a crisis. the wild body is also working at restoring ukrainian grain shipments and riding exports of russian fertilizer. the more threatened to tip, tens of millions of people wound wide and to free insecurity and famine. russia must permit the safe and secure exports of grains stored in ukrainian ports. alternative transportation routes can be explored, even if we know that by itself, they will not be enough to solve the problem. and russian food and fertilizers must
10:15 am
have andrew still accessed to world markets without in direct impediments. i have been in intense contact on busy shoe at the senior leadership level with the russian federation, ukraine, turkey, united states, the european union, and several other key countries. i am hopeful, but that is still a long way to go. hostile a had here on al jazeera, we look at the long term impact is covered 19 on patients and how they could overwhelm the us health system. ah, the he's been getting high enough in western year to bubble up a few thunderstorms. i think it'll collapse little, at least in this part of western europe through france and belgium as these frontal systems when she come through. but most of europe,
10:16 am
you can see sitting on the quiet skies, other side of this height and normally wins rather coolly here, represented by the yellows when the teens all the way down through western russia. that was bulgaria. but where in the thirty's and want to places in france and certainly throughout a good part of spain took the the southwest now. so i said, be a cooling trend through paris as new jobs through belgium, through parts of germany in the low countries, with cloud and some shouts at the same time. things rather warm up from the eastern side of europe, with temperatures exceeding 20 in the low twenty's in fact. and the passing rain just keeps passing and could be heavy for a time in the netherlands. so here's the warm trend, moving east and existing through southern france, down through spain and portugal, i think we'll see 41 than angelus here in bus. now some of the cody share bringing shows that it will come down again to libya, keeping to brook about $21.00 degrees carrier is still $35.00, a west africa. the showers are little, the weedy at the moment,

10:18 am
hello, they are watching out a 0. let's remind you about top stories here. the salad reports in israeli medias suggest the military doesn't plan to investigate the killing of al jazeera journalist, sharina ugly, ugly in the occupied westbank killing has been widely condemned, and there are growing calls for an independent investigation. russia says more than 900 ukrainian fighters from mariposa as a south steel fonts have been sent to prison. complex. ukraine is suggesting a prisma swap while russia wants. some of them are branded terrorists. i mean, while the u. s. says its confidence that finland and sweden will become members of nato. despite objections from tacky. the nordic states handed in their applications on wednesday. kristin salumi reports. the united states is eager for sweden and finland to join nato and strengthen the alliance. but one country is standing in the way you can convince turkey to accept their bed. i think i'm not going to
10:19 am
turkey, but i think we're gonna be okay. o. u. s. secretary of state, anthony blink and traveled to new york to meet with his turkish counterpart at the united nations. the turkish foreign minister came to express his country's objections, namely finland and sweden support for kurdish nationalist groups. that turkey views as terrorists come looking forward to pursuing that conversation. and today we have them and sweden should meet their applications. and this of course is a process and we will work through that process as allies in partners. you know, tony huge here as being supporting the open door policy or nato even before this war. but with regard to this possible candidate already candidate countries, you know, we have also legitimate security concerns that they have been supporting a terrorist organizations. turkey also wants them to lift
10:20 am
a weapons embargo imposed after turkey invaded syria to attack kurdish groups. the meeting here at the united nations on the sidelines of a ministerial conference on food security appeared cordial. both sides expressed confidence. they could work out their differences, but the meeting ended with no announcement. if any progress was made, the turkish foreign minister kept it to himself. i did with as the you asked, remained optimistic. we're confident that at the end of the day, feminine sweden will have been effective in a fission session process. the turkey's concerns can be addressed finland and sweden are working directly with turkey to do this. but we're also talking to the church to try to help facilitate as an invite in. we'll meet with his finish and swedish counterparts at the white house on thursday. kristin salumi al jazeera, the united nations. now asian markets have posted losses. alice, after wall street suffered one of its west falls and the last 2 years, stocks had been tumbling on face arising inflation,
10:21 am
the war in ukraine and supply chain problems. european markets are also down, and early at wall street was rattled by inflation fears from st. louis is in sole, she says, global inflation is making the markets and invest as extra novice. we're looking at prices going up fuel prices, freight charges, cost of materials, labor, and investors are concerned that if inflation really takes hold, this will have an impact on company's earnings. companies are going to see their profit margins being squeezed. and inflation also means those are going to be a lack of growth opportunities for companies. so investors are worried about a broader economic slowdown in general. and then there's the wider background as well. you've got china's 0 coven policy. this will have an effect on employment rate, it will have an impact on production output on supply chains. and china is the world's 2nd largest economy. so whatever it's going through will have
10:22 am
a knock on effect on the global economy. and then you've got the war in ukraine as well, which will already seeing those effects globally in terms of rising prices. so all of these things are weighing heavily on investors. mine's nouns, stocks are generally risky, anyway, even in the best of times. and what more in these more volatile times? so investors are really looking for safer haven for the assets. and that safe haven is cash, particularly in times of rising interest rates. and we're seeing that in the us. so say what we're seeing really is investors taking that money out of what's cost as risky investments and putting that into safer once. now the number of people in north korea with fever like symptoms, has reached nearly 2000000 curve at 19, is spreading quickly through the unvaccinated population. their leader kim jones has deployed the military and ordered nationwide locked downs. and also believe the actual number of infections may be higher due to a lack of testing and
10:23 am
a reluctance amongst health workers to report cases. well, meanwhile, health officials in the us are wanting that cases of cobit 19 arising there and could get even worse in the coming months. about a 3rd of the population lives in areas considered high risk with reporting cases up 26 percent from last week. people are being edge to wear masks indoors and take more precautions or us doctors are now saying one in 10 covered 1900 patients will end up developing the condition known as long curve. it. the symptoms aren't completely understood, but they include fatigue, pain, mental impairment, and even heart problems. how does your customer has worn out from baltimore? 5 minutes of play time with a 4 year old son is enough to raise michael clark's heart rate to concerning level . just a little bit. if he decided one day he wants to run away from the a probably can't chase him. what are we going to do? clark is $33.00 and was an avid runner before he contract cove. it in march 2020.
10:24 am
now more than 2 years later, he still feels crippling fatigue and a long list of other symptoms. i'm a fraction of the person that i had hoped to be that i used to be. so we're talking, shortness of breath, rhetoric and chest pains. we're talking chest tightness, we're talking intense, debilitating headaches. this is life with long cove id defined by the world health organization as otherwise unexplained post covered symptoms that last for at least 2 months. many people like clark have symptoms that appear to be indefinite. he says he's made lifestyle changes to cope, and it's fortunate to have a job, but let's him work from home. many others are not as lucky. i've seen personally in my support groups, multiple people that have died by suicide because the symptoms of their long coat experience was just too much to handle. and they couldn't withstand the pain anymore. i think that it's time to shift the focus from cove it as an acute,
10:25 am
severe illness that has a mortality rate, which is very important, but also to start paying attention to those millions of people that are living disabled. and that are going to need programs and support from the government from society at large. johns hopkins is among the about 60 hospital system in the us with dedicated host cove. it clinics, medical experts say that is not nearly enough to treat the up to 23000000 americans suffering long term symptoms. hello, hello. hey, it to clark multiple referrals and months of waiting to be accepted into the johns hopkins clinic. here he'll get a rehabilitation plan. there's still no cure for long cove id. the novelty of it is something that we have to live with because it is a big known as to what the long term complications are going to be. the u. s.

10:27 am
formulated stores as soon as possible. well, joanna hatch is on the board of directors for the mother's milk alliance, not to community milk sharing organization. she says women need support and breast feeding, and if that doesn't work and other option is there native milk, these are short term solutions and short term solutions are necessary to help families that are in crisis right now. i think for myself and for the organization that i'm a part of mothers milk alliance which supports facilitated donor milk sharing in our community. the long term solution also has to be creating sustainable systems for families to be able to have the support they need to establish breastfeeding, to have time to be with their babies, to continue breastfeeding. and then when breastfeeding doesn't work to have safe alternatives, including donor milk, and as the supply of baby organization here in madison, wisconsin provides an alternative formula, supplementation for some families. so donor milk is an option for families who are
10:28 am
facing or a shortage of formula for organizations like ours, we facilitate sharing in the community. so we connect families who have too much now are able to donate, who are healthy and whose babies are healthy to share their additional milk with families who might not have quite enough to feed their babies. there's also options such as more established formal milk base, such as the human mill base alliance with north america. here in our region. as well as other forms of community milk sharing among family and friends who may share in breast milk in order to feed their babies. are flooding in the great lakes and kenya has forced tens of thousands of people from their homes as hard as the reports now from lake knacker. water levels have been rising for years late and i could've used to be inside a national park just behind those trees. not extends beyond the parks boundaries, king and said, i have seen the lake rise over the years. then at the beginning of 2020,
