11:02 am
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 independent investigation. neither abraham is standing by for us and remark fast let's go live to him on con, he's in west drew. slam him on, can you talk us through what we've been hearing today in his rating media? that's right, we're hearing that the israeli military police. they're in charge of the investigation. any potential investigation aren't going to investigate the death of serene acclaim. now the reason for this is that you would have to actually open a criminal investigation into a serving israeli army officer will soldier on an active military operation. that's something that is ready. politics in this current climate finds absolutely untenable. the government would be attacked if that investigation actually took place. it would be heavily criticized. the opposition would use it to make
11:03 am
political ground with the government. also, just generally with israelis itself, the israeli, see the, the army as being untouchable as being defenders of israel. and therefore anything that they do will stay on a military operation is untouchable. however, ah, there was in the car in the days after the sort and the days after the attack own assuring avalon lake calls for an investigation. and these really are me, did say that they were going to investigate. they took a guns away from these where the soldiers, they said they were going to investigate. this was a washington post report that came out a few days later. however, that isn't now happening. and we all, we have actually reached out to the israeli only to ask them what their next plans are. they haven't responded to us yet. however, the family have responded to us. we asked them what they thought of this, this decision not to investigate. they said we were expecting their so from the
11:04 am
israeli side, that's why we didn't want them to participate in the investigation. who are the hold whoever's responsible for these acts accountable? we urge the u. s. in particular, since she is a us citizen and the international community to open a just and transparent investigation and put an end to these killing. so the family never really had any faith that these railways would investigate this. the americans have parcel on these rallies to investigate this. we are expecting a comment on this at some point once america starts to wake up and respond to what's has happened. hey, so fall this morning. and there is pressure from the international community to open investigation. but none of that seems like it's going to be a international investigation. everybody wants israel to do this and the family like us, i don't really have any faith. and that goes to the palestinians. well, that these railways will mountain investigation. and ron con, there, across that for us in western them. thank you so much him, ron. well, let's now cross over to nita abraham. she is in ramallah in the occupied west bank
11:05 am
. nita, as we've been saying there was really never much confidence at all on the palestinian side and any sort of israeli investigation. and this has added to the grief, the pain, the sadness of palestinians. there were saying that said he was killed in cold blood. the killers are not gonna be held accountable. and this is part and parcel of the stories that should, in, has been coveting for the past few decades. she's been saying that there is no accountability and indeed with her killing, we're seeing her even when she's not with us, amplifying the stories of the palestinians. we often see a cases ending in no investigation. and those that eventually lead to the military prosecutor saying ok, i want to investigate this at the end. we either see the file being close or a lie, something like a community service for a soldier who killed the palestinian,
11:06 am
who was helping a family, a with a car accident. the israelis at the time said, oh the, the soldier felt he was in danger. although he's armed, he is in a military tower up above. so this is just an example of how palestinians have never expect the justice from these radius. they say that these really just assist them. it's part of white washing these wally occupation and we've been reaching out to palestinian officials for comment. we've spoken to the spokesperson of the palestinian government, but he met him. who says that since his end was established as 74 years ago, it has been known to use and falsify facts which spoken also to a lawyer who said that this is dangerous. but it seems that everybody here is not expecting anything from this ready side. but rather they want international
11:07 am
pressure on israel, and they want prosecution in different courts in you escorts since should in used to have the u. s. citizenship and ne, any that's have jurisdiction when it comes to war. crime international criminal court is, is that important? what of course, there was a lot of politics up man, this is why palestinians want the palestinian authority to keep pushing. afford that file at the ice and see we've been speaking to the palestinian prime minister over the past few days. he says, the palestinian authority didn't officially ask washington to intervene, but they ought rather putting up a file with all the evidence, all the witnesses, and they want to present it to that are in party and push for accounts of minutes. neither uber, him there with all the laces for us from the occupied westbank. thank you, nita. ah, no. russia says 1730 ukrainian fight as have surrendered for mary paul's as of

11:19 am
fasten. she's across this for us in berlin. a step much of the discussion as we been saying, expect it to be about reconstruction and ukraine, but this also has broader implications. well absolutely, and it's clear that the countries to 7 economic powers will have to dig deep into their pockets. the u. s. tried to re a 2nd to regenerate jaelyn yesterday yesterday said the financial support for your brain is simply not enough at the moment. you great is really struggling at the moment to just make their daily meet needs because of the war horse with they have no money to pay for their punch, most of civil server. and so all the soldier of course has to be face. it comes up to around $15000000000.00 us dollars a month, a $5000000000.00, excuse me, a month. so what are the g safa minutes now? i'm trying to put together is a package of around $15000000000.00 us dollars. half of it will be paid actually by
11:20 am
the us. so that will be a daily needs basically. but then of course, we haven't even talked about reconstruction. the, our estimates that around a $100000000000.00 cost of damages have been done to infrastructure. it is an idea floated now by the u. s. and also by europe to left russia partially pay for this. they're talking about this $300000000000.00 that has been a russian asset like that right from the russian bank. but legally thing to do. so i'm going to say it's for me, it has to be careful with death gives a very bad precedent. but these are the topics that are being discussed here in germany right now. and also the global impact of the war to high inflation, high energy prices. so a lot on the agenda step, fasten their across that for us in berlin. thank you so much step. while speaking of those knock on effect, trading on the asian markets is off to
11:21 am
a negative start. stocks have been falling on fears and rising inflation. the war in ukraine and supply chain problems and follows a tough day on wall street where stocks suffer their biggest drop since the early days of the pandemic. continuity is in sol, she says global inflation is making the markets and investors extra nervous. 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 as they're 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
11:22 am
2nd largest economy. so whatever it's going through will have a knock on effect on the global economy. and then you've got the war in ukraine as well, which we already seeing those effects globally in terms of rising prices. so all of these things are weighing heavily on investors mines. now, 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 safe 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 as investors taking that money out of what's cost as risky investments and putting that into safe ones. well, as we've been saying, us stocks had another dismal day on wednesday with wall street ending sharply lower . the dow jones industrial average dropped more than 1100 points up about 3.6 percent before been driven by rising freight and transportation costs. the convicts
11:23 am
in ukraine lock downs in china and supply chain problems. whole speaking of lock downs and coded us doctors. now say one in 10 code 19 patients will end up developing the condition known as long as it. the symptoms aren't completely understood, but they include fatigue, pain, mental impairments, and even heart problems. heidi's custer 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 a concerning level just a little bit. if he decided one day he wants to run away from me, 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. 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,
11:24 am
shortness of breath, rhetoric, in 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 cove, its 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 that led some 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 the long cove, it 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, severe illness 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
11:25 am
society at large. johns hopkins is among the about 60 hospital systems in the us with dedicated host covert clinics. medical experts say that is not nearly enough to treat the up to 23000000 americans suffering long term symptoms. oh hello. hey. it took 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 unknown as to what the long term complications are going to be. the u. s. government has launched an effort to study and treat long cove id, but the help can't come soon enough for those who are suffering and wondering if they'll ever get better. all right, is there go heidi joe castro al jazeera baltimore, maryland was staying in the u. s. and president joe biden has invoked
11:26 am
a cold war era law to ease and nationwide shortage of baby formula. under the defense production act, supplies the now required to send me gradients used in baby formula to major manufacturers. first, biden is also ordered the defense department to use military aircraft to import baby milk from overseas. the shortage stems from a recall by formula make abbot back in february after 2 babies died. vince production act gives the government the ability to require suppliers to direct needed resources to infant formula manufacturers before any other customer who may have ordered that good. i'm also announcing operation slide formula best to be able to speed up the import of infant formula and start getting more formula in stores as soon as possible. while joanna hatch is on the board of directors for the mother's milk alliance, that's a community milk sharing organization. she says women need support and breast feeding, and if that doesn't work and other option is donated milk. these are short term
11:27 am
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 a safe 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 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 were able to donate, who are healthy and whose babies are healthy to share their additional milk with
11:28 am
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 milk base alliance of north america here in our region. as well as other forms of community milk sharing among family and friends who may share breast milk in order to feed their babies. now flooding and the great lakes in kenya has forced tens of thousands of people from their homes as having the test reports from lake new crew. water levels have been rising that he is lake in a could or used to be inside a national park just behind those trees. not extends beyond the parks boundaries, king and say, they've seen the lake rise over the years. then at the beginning of 2020 off to particularly heavy rains and pinion, highlands to lake expansion accelerated they saw it coming. the water started coming slowly by slowly, slowly, day by day,
