ah, with with mm pool away official and on the journey with

2 this is al jazeera. ah hello, this is in use our on al jazeera. i'm fully back table, alive at our headquarters in doha, coming up in the next 60 minutes. another my shooting in the u. s. a gunman opens fire at a primary school in texas, killing 19 children, and 2 adults. a concentrated effort to destroy every thing why ukraine says russia is assault in the east is more focused than ever. also this, our turkey's foreign minister is in west jerusalem as anchor and israel seek to mend strain ties and high security in islamabad. supporters of former pakistani prime minister in long con, march to the capitol, demanding new elections. and i'm,

we are harding with sports. it was an emotional night for the n b, a fans in dallas as they paid tribute to the victims of school shooting in texas. ah, thank you very much for joining as we begin in the united states, where gun control is under scrutiny once again after what's being described as a heinous, horrific, and incomprehensible school shooting. 19 primary school children and 2 teachers have been shot dead in the town of you vall, d in texas, u. s. research group, gun violence. archive defines my shootings as 4 or more people being shot and killed in a single incident. not including the shooter so far this year. the u. s. has seen more than 200 such attacks that an average of 10 shootings every week. rob reynolds begins are coverage with this report. a shocking act of violence as ripped,

yet another american town into pieces. an 18 year old gunman stormed in elementary school walled a texas tuesday afternoon and opened fire. as the news spread frantic parents waited to find out if their children were safe on and nobody is telling me anything. always telling me, telling me anything. and one of the parents are saying that there's kids possibly held at the funeral home. and that's what brought me over here to find out what's going on. and the unthinkable details began to emerge. salvador romeus, an 18 year old male who resided in you've audi. it's believed that he abandoned his vehicle and entered into the rob elementary school in your valley with, with a hand gun. and he may have also had a rifle. as of now, no motive is known for the mass shooting. the 600 children who attended the primary school were aged from 5 or 6 to about 12 years old. at this point,

the investigation leading to tell us that the, the suspect did act alone during this heinous crime. the killings come less than 10 days after a gunman who posted racist rance online killed 10 people at a grocery store in buffalo. new york gun laws in texas are among the least restrictive in the country. there's no minimum age limit for children to possess. fire arms in texas, the u. s. average is about 10 mass shootings per week. nearly $200.00 mass shootings have happened so far this year. that includes $27.00 school shootings. these kids weren't, i'm lucky. this only happens in this country. and nowhere else, nowhere else to little kids go to school thinking that they might be shot that day

. the murders of the school children in new vall day brought this response from president joe biden, as when in god's name we're going to stand up to the gun lobby. when in god's name, we do, we all know our gut needs to be done. despite polls that show a majority of americans favor tougher gun laws. the efforts to pass national gun legislation have been blocked. time and time again by republicans and a few democrats in congress. this confuse in word, and i'm trying to find out where my babies are. with an estimated 390000000 guns owned by civilians in the us and few effective limits on gun ownership, the horror in new vol day will likely be repeated again and again, rob reynolds al jazeera. when i speak to scott lucas about this, his ann emeritus professor at the university of birmingham and is joining us us via

skype from there. very good. have you with us on the news? are mr. lucas? the statistics are, are shocking. this is happening almost every week. in the u. s. in other countries look at america and wonder why nothing is being done about this, what, what has been done, and what can still be done to restrict guns. what has been attempted um by the biden administration, has been executive orders to work on the fringes of trying to regulate, for example, ghost guns, which are these homemade guns that currently have no regulation. there has been an attempt to use executive orders to work with red flags. those are notices about people who should not be sold. john, it's of the justice department is trying to work with states on trying to build a, an oversight of those people who might be dangerous if they have

a gun. but these are on the fringes. your correspondent identified the fundamental until you have 10 republicans who joined 50 democrats in the senate to bypass the republican filibuster. we will not even get a stuart, for example, on background shucks, or a minimum age for possession of the semi automatic weapon. the timing here is incredible, isn't it? the n r a, the national rifle association, the powerful gun lobby group, is holding its annual meeting in just 2 days in texas. former president, trump is expected to attend that. and so all of texas is governor. why does the n r a have such incredible influence on american politicians? well, the timing for me is not incredible. it actually reads like the script for this moment. and that is on friday. so 72 hours after these, my 2 children and 2 adults were killed in cold blood. donald trump,

senator ted cruz of texas governor greg habit of texas will take the stage and they will tell the cheering n r a members that it is good to have more guns that there are no needs restrictions. indeed of it will brag that he has loosened restrictions on john's. why do you have this combination of politics of the nora? because the in our has been already has money. and because politicians are cynical and the only way to change that is going to have to come with the voting booths, included this november. yeah. but before, before that happens, i mean, i did the elections in november. we've heard present biden, of course, make an emotional appeal to lawmakers to stand up to the n. r e. democrats have been trying and failing for years to tighten america's gun laws. republicans don't seem to be changing their position even with elections and so on. everyone is waiting for an act of congress at as high to level, but are they no other common sense solutions that can stop this epidemic?

the common some solutions are there. it is easier to buy an alcoholic drink in america than it is to buy a gun, or sorry, easier to buy a gun than it is to buy an alcoholic drink. if you're between 18 and 21, it is easier to buy a gun than to get a central health care for women in certain us states. but the problem is, is that when the republicans are dedicated to obstruction of any legislation, including on gun control, you cannot clear that hurdle at national level. i must be honest with you. america is in a ground hans day of violence. i talked to you about mass killings last month. i talked to you about buffalo last week and revolt a and texas today. and in a few weeks i will be talking to you about another bass killing. because the poison in american politics amongst a certain group of politicians and the media is paralyzed in the country. thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with us,

scott lucas emeritus professor at the university of bending, and we appreciate your time. thank you. thank you. the war in ukraine now, and president lensky, says, russia is trying to destroy every thing in the eastern dumbass region. present. lensky is urging the west to keep up a regular supply of heavy weapons to keep rushes. defense minister says there is no deadline for the fighting and it will continue until its goals are achieved. zera's not on buses last year. the situation and don barza extremely difficult. most of all russian might is now concentrated on this region. the goal, lemon partner. civ, road on yet school of the answer of them, the occupiers want to destroy everything there, but in their communication and to sip school illegally. here that they realize that this war has no sense for them. that strategically the army has no chance of victory. yet it requires time and

a lot of unprecedented effort from our people to overcome their advantage in the amount of military equipment and armaments settled. so for the latest from eastern ukraine, let's go live to al jazeera. as i said, bagels in cram at tolorisk. i fad fighting in the east continued to be very intense . bring us up to speed with the latest. yes, it is very intent and we are hearing from the ukraine in there that they feel like they have the behind. but we're hearing here on the ground that this is the side of the struggle total. the origins here, right? 2 o'clock this morning. and just to give you an idea that this is an empty building, hit the wrong train in the morning. we felt the shock waves hotel, we will walk and why she came from back on the explosion and hit a 100 meters to the left or to the right. then it would have hit the residential buildings here. but the shock wave of the, if i can just show you to every single window,

i'm even speaking to the residence. and some of them said that the rebel is building was crossed into the apartment. the one i live in rancho do not have something to do with the country, but had they been had a massive concrete bold that had landed on his grandchild that and he was in tears . many people were left recently because of the fight. 6, the russians are about 25 kilometers away, but the city is waiting range of their rockets and they can even hit with terry. and that's the fear that no place in use and ukraine safe. listen, the trust hasn't been it didn't stick it in the don bus region in fact, in the next to region for the one of the reasons have been done by the government. they have been 12, people killed the last 24 hours and the government was a hand squeezed and says that this is one of the most difficult times that they are facing in the ages of this conflict with russian back separatists. elsewhere in the postage america told them,

discover $200.00 bodies under the rubble of an apartment building. that's one of the largest number, highest number of buddies i've discovered since the start of this war. but like i said in the east of the country, the russians seem to make it seem to me making several act, putting many talent tickets rather reach on the cherry and rockets. but this was an air strike. and that just shows that the russians are able to strike any pace and at any time, thank you for the update for big life or a say in climate or sky in easton ukraine. now there's some areas of ukraine which are returning to normal, but they're still concerns even near keith. capital st. javi has more from death, not just north of the korean capital. this is a town that's been on the mind of many ukrainians, especially president latimer zelinski for at least a week. now let me just give you a sense of where we are, doesn't it is a military town. the main feature of this town is an enormous military base because of security restrictions i can't show you. but what i'm looking at is

a huge training facility. driving up, we saw tanks, doug in positions, major enforce positions and trained a training base. the stretch of very large area of land. basically the whole town. this whole village is built around a military base. we're about an hour or 2 just north of keith. and the reason that this location is important is because of a missile strike that took place here about a week ago, a little over a week ago. what happened here last week only has come to light a few days ago, which is when president lensky spoke about it. in his address to diverse, he said 87 people were killed in a strike. multiple rockets being fired in one missile strike. this military base killed 87 people. that number is significant because that is the highest single loss of military life in a single strike. since the start of the russian invasion in february. now this location is nowhere near the eastern front where there are ground battles raging. this is nowhere near the south where there are also battles on going. this is far

from any of that. this is just north of the capital again, just about an hour and 20 minutes north of keven that is significant because it continues to illustrate one simple fact that as long as your crane is not control of the airspace over the land that it is fighting for russian missiles, russian air power continues to be able to reach out and touch any single inch of this country whenever it wants to. and that continues to be the major problem. trends air defenses are not what they need to be to take it's aerospace, back fence morehead on the found just here and use our including a show of force. how the u. s. then south korea have reacted to the latest miss on the north korea. new evidence and ologist here agenda sharina blacklist killing we the findings of a cnn investigation and later in sport, a new world record for the biggest wave everson ah,

here the world news, a turkish foreign minister says normalization of ties between anchor and israel will help bring a solution to the israeli, palestinian conflict, magnet casual loses in west jerusalem as the 2 countries where 2 men trained nations. he's the 1st senior turkish official to visit in more than 15 years. on tuesday casual blue promise continued support for palestinians during his meeting with the palestinian president, mahmoud abbas. we believe that normalization of archives will also have positive impact on the peaceful resolution of coffee. and as all as always, as in the past, also we played a very constructive role and now today is ready to take responsibility to continue to do the air force war dialogue. we won't pretend that our relationship has not seen its ups and downs,

but we remember the turkey. it was the 1st muslim nation to recognize israel back in 1949. and we have always known how to return to dialogue and corporation. nations with long histories, always know how to close one chapter and open a new one. that is what we are doing here today. life challenges here is the man can in west jerusalem him on how significant is this visit considering that relations between turkey in israel have been at an all time low. well, relations have been at an all time low diplomatic relations between israel and turkey have actually been non existent for 15 years as so what this is very significant for both of those 2 countries. but if you take the press conference at face value, it felt like 2 business leaders talking rather than 2 foreign ministers. there was a heavy emphasis on the idea,

the business relations people who he ple relations were going to push that really the, the relations further with israel and with turkey. so it didn't really feel like it was a political press conference. indeed, you just heard there the turkish foreign minister reference the israeli palestinian conflict. that was the only time it was mentioned, the israeli fm didn't talk about it at all. so. so what does this mean for these railey palestinian relationship? will the turks are saying that their approach money with israel will not come at the expense of the palestinians that the they, you still maintain their relationship with the palestinians. and indeed the turkish f. m. met with a bass and the foreign minister in ramallah yesterday. so he said that was a fruitful meeting, but this was, but like i say, really focused on business and really focused on a relationship. perhaps those are things that they could agree on. we were expecting the ambassadors to each country to be announced,

those reinstatement of the ambassadors that didn't happen, although i do understand that it was talked about. but ultimately i think it was the visual of those 2 people. those 2 countries standing side by side after 15 years that both countries wanted to put other mankind in west serious and thank you for that update that has been new evidence to support witness accounts of how al jazeera journalist, sharina ob lockley was shot dead according to a c n n investigation. she was killed in a targeted attack by israeli forces. the report says there was no active combat or any palestinian fight is near ob walkways location. the u. s. bass news channel comb through 11 videos of the scene, showing israel's military convoy from different angles before during and after she was shot. 8 witnesses, an audio and an explosive weapons expert backed up the findings. now members of the un security council, a calling for an independent investigation into the death of sharina walker. it's in meeting to discuss threats to global media freedom and the protection of

journalists. kristin salumi report on the un. what israel's killing of al jazeera, serene ob lockley in the occupied west bank, prompted ireland to call this meeting on the protection of journalists at the time of her killing. sharyn was on duty in a blue press, vest, a symbol which denotes civilian status, a symbol that demonstrates to parties to conflict, that journalists are not a target. the targeting of journalists in conflict zones is considered a war crime. the committee to protect journalists said no less than 18, have been killed in the palestinian territories in the last 20 years. in ukraine, 9 journalists have died in the war with russia. but as the experts made clear, 9 out of 10 such crimes are never prosecuted. the failure of states to investigate, prosecute and punish crimes against john. this is not only a denial of justice,

it is actually an encouragement perpetuate. the cycle of finance al jazeera is abdur rahim for kara, promised to pursue all legal options for accountability and zeroes. position is crystal clear, shooting a blacklist as life matters and so does a transparent and independent investigation of her killing and of the serious violation of her funeral by the israeli security forces. there are other crystal clear issues for 0 network. one cheating a black lar, was killed by an israeli bullet and in cold blood while she was doing her job to the network has the evidence and the witnesses to support that position. the other media networks have made the same conclusion. the un security council has condemned the killing of serene walkway and called for a transparent,

impartial investigation. but they haven't supported the palestinian authority's call for an investigation by the international criminal court. essentially leaving accountability in israel's hands. christian salumi al jazeera, the united nations pakistan, former prime minister iran khan, has called on his supporters to stage a citizen in islamic bar to demand new elections con, arrived in the shower, and is expected to march into a lot of bad with his supporters. but the government has bronx roads leading into the capital and for thousands of security personnel, him on con, was removed from office after no confidence vote last month. let's go live to our correspondent, come all high to who's in some of our so tell us what the q security is like. come out around government sites. where to go to dick. streamline guide and dia sections of law bod, the red zone, all shaded on the motorway. they've been shaved off. m. ron 100,

been speaking to tens of thousands of dollars that i want to talk. 500 wake conroy doing. and we're also told that the people that have gathered dead are going to be crossing into the bun, job province data board, so got food and many fun job hit days between the police. despite the fact that the buckets new constitution allows for peace for protest. richard appoint demented, right of the citizens. but the government, it seems to panic, ended over reacting despite the fact that they were court ordered not to go ahead raj good reason. we only have the political workers being judged outside our office. thank you very much for that. come all hider live in islamic bonds. russia's invasion of ukraine has alarmed countries across

eastern europe with fears they could be dragged into the conflict as well as capital is less than a 1000 kilometers from both moscow and keep its been a full member of nato since 2004. but the invasion has shaken the population. there is sent millions in military a to ukraine and has called for western allies to send fighter jets or joining us now on the news. our is a gale levitz who is the president of lots. yeah. and he is joining us from the world economic summit in davos, switzerland. thank you very much, mr. president. for being with us on al jazeera, you live in a dangerous neighbourhood, like ukraine, the baltic states, including not yet were part of the soviet union. let me ask you 1st, how vulnerable are you feeling today, and how do you assess your current relationship with nato and russia? yes, yeah, thank you much. the member state of nato, a member state of european union, and nato is the strongest military defense ally. and since the load

and therefore an attack, the one member state of nato means outcome ethically, attack the all as i, amanda steph. and this is solid data, the day of all of nato. and therefore, we add the queue. but be so, for instance, nato as good as ation, especially nato nato's e stand flank. and therefore, they will decide on that end of june in the read by the next nato summit, right. they seem to be revolving support dorval's to spend together russia, but they have been spits within nato and the you also about the way forward. busy lead thought with what's happening within nato. right now, finland and sweden want to join the alliance. but turkey as you know, as opposed and there's a meeting in anchor later today between the fin, swedes and types. can we expect a breakthrough on that?

and do you think present dirty ones, concerns about sweden and finland. joining nato are legitimate nato is our alliance of 30 member states, and all member states strengthen through their membership in july and including turkey and to be want to strengthen ally and maud a through a to your members that lead and finland if it's outside in the interest of turkey in the interest of all nato members, they as their thought, i am sure that that turkey and finland and sweden will solve the problem which they have and at the end of finland and sweden will join nato and soon so hopeful about a breakthrough but they are divisions to mr. president within the european union.

hungary is blocking a 6 package of sanctions against russia that includes russian oil band. and i know your prime minister will be attending a summit, o v u leaders on this. can president obama be convinced? how would you convince him that this is the way forward? a we have a already agreed 5 packages, including of course her hungary has also agreed this sir. 5 packages, of course. and now there are negotiations about this fixed package. and i am sure that they will come to result because all member states of european union has as their own ab nurse, they are on the use on that. but they have a common goal be the common goal is to sanction natasha in order to keep peace in euro. yeah, because of the sanctions is an instrument still keep these still get beef in europe,

a common goal? you say, mr. president, but these plagues perhaps are i signal that the unity that we so at the started this crisis on ukraine. i and the unity that was seen in the last you might say is a shaky one is ne herb as a european union is sir unique. i would say, because this is a completely new situation where we are now and her. if these are i am in and turned it and intended a side effect of futons politics that there we have now such a unity in the european union and nato in their best involved as a whole. and i would say that there in order to, to stabilize the unity and to go forward. we need discussions, and now it's time for discussion in order to get it out. and i'm sure that they

will get it out right now with the final of a global food crisis. the european union, the well food program and the you and have been trying to get trapped. grain out of ukraine and lithuania is pushing for a naval correlation of the willing to protect c lane in the black sea so that ukraine remains. ukraine's remaining ports can export this grain de your country. be part of that group via thinking about that. but of course, they should do as you to be in union. and also i've international community to avoid such food faith because it would be a new global crisis reform correctly and to be sure do all possible, but is in our hands to avoid that. everything possible, some in european capital have been suggesting mind clearing and need to convoys for

congo ships. it's an idea that as an early stage, would you support nato being involved in this? that could pose a risky situation. i cannot exclude any possibility. we should look on each possibility on, on each scenario and then to choose the best one mister president. thank you very much for talking to us here on algebra. it gives levied is lot b as president joining us there from the world economics for him in davos, switzerland. thank you very much for your time. thank you. and i spent more head on the news. our struggling to survive victims await government action on crimes committed under the rule of the i, jamie, in the gambia. and in for something you may not see again for a very long time more from the n b. a payoff plays ending this out, please. ah

now is the cuter atlantic air battling the warm sunshine of late may? the sun shines winning, but only after a day of rough dropped temperatures because you sears, these frontal systems marching through northern central and eastern europe not to the temperature back from boston. extraordinary warming conditions to back down to normal, but in between, you get up to 1920 mark from the breeze falls up afterward. so significant, right, i think today in poland, thunderstorm probably over the alps and something trying to form near the valley. eric's in the western mediterranean, it actually is weather was weather has been recently now to the see the southwestern part of spain and around italy where the son's been shot in quite hum, also ran some of the balkan states. so that's the picture that this afternoon if it's not sharon, you could be this halt. we were into the middle thirties left,

same parts of history. the war was place in europe. that was yesterday. right? the big picture then i'll take you to thursday. now a lot more sunshine arrived to places where it's by to be sherry on wednesday and of sort of vice versa. temps is creeping slow. yep. nothing extraordinary. except possibly still down in italy. the big shower in west africa, in producing some flooding around god and back towards liberia. and they could repeat that feat today. ah, with 2 young women in morocco, staying with local families. morocco really woke me up and is definitely changed my life in a good way. american students learning to live in north africa and getting better at haggling and shopping and morocco. al jazeera world photos that jeremy's of cultural emotion. leading to some surprising consequences. an american in my home

on al jazeera from the al jazeera london broadcast center to people in thoughtful conversation with no host and no limitations this decade. these are both consequential dicky events is for too many companies that are doing bad things in the front. in part 2 of human rights activists. q me, ny do, and environmental is when own entity, the systems are not working, but the longer that you fight them, the more that things changed studio be unscripted on out his era, hulu. ah,

they're watching al jazeera alive from doha reminder of our top stories on this news. our a gunman had scales 19 primary school children and 2 teachers in the us state of texas. it happened in the city of avante, near san antonio. and this has re ignited calls for gun control across the us. turkeys ford minister says the normalization of ties between ankara and israel will help towards a solution to the palestinian conflict. mellowed casual lewis in western member talks has on kara and israel tried to main meant strained relations and ukraine's president says russia is trying to destroy everything in the eastern dumbass region . russia defense minister says there is no deadline for the fighting, and it will continue until its goals are achieved. not to the gambia. now where the government is said to ratify or reject the findings of a report on atrocities committed under its former president. dia jamie, but victims are skeptical. the your forty's will hold those account accused to

account. i'm address report some banjo use of them by comes to this hospital 3 times a week for physiotherapy. he was shot and left for dead in 2000 by troops loyal to come to his former president. ya oh yes of us as he was only able to regain pasha use of his hand after 22 years of physiotherapy. doctor say his survival was a miracle. even eating is quite a struggle. the gumby is truth. reconciliation and reparation commission recommended he be paid compensation, but he returned the $400.00. he was given that i didn't need money. i need my help . my head is more important than anything it caught in that is something neither his attack is the truth commission, nor the current government can give him back of i was and victims families have singled out members of the hits court known as douglas or most of vehicles is

committed under former president. yeah, i got that one them pride and punish. but active is also want political leaders to be held accountable for not stopping those crimes. journalists on red cross volunteer omar bottle was killed while happened. victims shocked by the security forces. it somebody believed he was targeted because of his work as a journalist, his widow, our sunday, isn't as confident the report the government will release or bring closure. you just cannot reconcile and for the people without knowing how can you funny somebody, you don't know. look at your husband, how can you fung it up as you have to have guessed, is then in a fact me, foggy. need a cleanser one before that. we need justice for her justice means punish those responsible for the crimes committed, including jojo, jamie, who she says still has some influence in the gap. yeah, the government says it took this long to ensure a thorough, unsatisfactory job of investigating allegations of rights abuses of issues hold

government action on the rights commission's recommendations. could heal wounds and reconcile a nation struggling to come to terms with its recent past. but most victims, like use of him by remain skeptical live to i'm at a dress in bon jewel, i'm at how important is this day to all those involved. and what's the next step in this absolutely fully, it's important for most or on most all the actors, all of the stakeholders in this investigation. the victims want to have closure and they're looking for to the pot reaching action the government will take to bring them closure. after the harrowing experiences they expect, they placed in the last 2 years. the government is he got to have a plan. this final chapter closed and it's figure to present its own stand on the investigations conducted by the truth and reconciliation commission,

so that people and this country will move forward in terms of human rights activists. that also want to see, i'm lot of people who are responsible were responsible for the atrocities of the past 22 years, be held accountable. now the only people looking to this day with apprehension, the principal not just those who committed their processes. they won't be looking forward to this day, but again, this day has come. now, what is next? joining me to talk about what is the next action or next line of action is the chairman of the gambia truth ricka began be human rights commission. mister manuel daniel job to talk to us about what next lesson plan after the presentation today we we about to well, what next is to hear from the government? what the white paper sees and also their plans in implementing the recommendations that are in the white paper. so it's very important today is part of the process is

not the end game, but it is today is the day after 3 years of hard work. there is a fantastic report that has been submitted by the by the commission, by the commission, drastic you said, but yeah. do you think that the government will takes fire? which in decisions that will bring closure to the victim. and we're hoping that we're hoping that and it out there has been encouraging signs of late, where the government has involved to stick all the relevant stakeholders in the process. so we believe seriously that the government will, will own up. and now these recommendations will be implemented. we also understand that not everything will be, will be implemented. some are for the immediate sum up for the medium term, some up for the long term. but for example, issues like prosecution, doors will bear the greatest responsibilities. i think all the stakeholders are hoping that in this white paper to day people will be named that have been recommended for prosecution to the prosecuted. that is one,

but of course is not only that there are people who are also mentioned in the, in the report that are supposed to be banned from willing public office. we hope that also these people will be banned from papa holding public office. we are the reparations, and for this appearance is there, but is that i still not discovered an institutional reform. it's very important because we got to go, we can talk about never again, mantra of the commission if we do not have institutional reform. so that what happened before will not happen again. granted, we have a national human rights commission, but we must have these functioning oversights. institution must work, the courts, which were in the past month by mercenary judges. there has been a lot of reform, but security sector reform. these are issues that are very important in the whole process. remember this is it, it turns the so just as process btr abs, he was one of one of to give us a historical record of what happened. and we stood a gun means of a historical record of what happened on the 22 years of jamiracle with

recommendations to wander than it in. we have findings, fondling, print to serve in the commission, sat for 3 years and listen to close to 200 witnesses. i think we have enough to go by. thank you chairman of the gun beer human rights commission. are emmanuel daniel, you've well of folly to be, to be candid, there is a lot of anger after these investigations, 3 years of investigations. it's not clear of the moment what those recommendations will be. those recommendations will be presented by the minister of justice in less than 15 minutes from now. and we are hoping to update you on this, but the anger we feel from the survivors of this is so much so that it's difficult to imagine what will come after this. and we will get an update with your horse fair. in bon jewel, the dress live in gumby as capital. now in the u. k, where senior british civil 7 sou gray has issued

a damning report in the so called pony gage scandal. the report has looked into accusations that government ministers and staff held a number of parties in downing street of the height of crone of ice lockdown. fisco live to join a hole in london, a highly anticipated report. john, what can you tell us about what we know so far as you say, after months of anticipation of speculation, of leaks in the media of apologies by the prime minister himself, among others of a police investigation that handed out 126 fines to 83 people working in government for lockdown breaches involving parties in number 10, downing street and other government offices. finally, now the report by senior civil service su gray is out. it points to a culture of rule breaking in downing street during lockdown of parties taking place. she investigated up to 16 gatherings. here's

a flavor of what she said expanding on interim findings that she released before the police investigation intervened. she said, i've already commented on what i found them to be. failures of leadership and judgment in number 10 on the cabinet office. the invent the events that i investigated were attended by leaders in government. many of these events should not have been allowed to happen. she goes on to say at times to little thought was given to what was happening across the country in considering the appropriateness of some of these gatherings now, much of what is in this 40 page report is already in the public domain. we've heard about the party on the eve of print phillips memorial, for instance. we've heard about wind time, fridays pencils into people's diaries as a regular event. we've heard about alcohol in a suitcase being brought through security. crucially, the report does not appear to point the finger directly at the prime minister as being the person culpable for these failures that will be sucker to him and to his

office. there may be resignations, there is most likely to be boris johnson's resignation in the immediate wake of this report, the hope will be that much of the fury has been priced in, has been vented in advance, and that the government can get on with the work of government, there are already reports of a major policy announcement in the cost of living crisis to be released on thursday . jonah, thank you for that. john hall live there in london. and the latest miss our launches by north korea have been followed by south korean and us soldiers during live fire drills. they started hours after president joe biden feel home after meeting south korea new president unit. so y'all, at the weekend both agreed to whole laundry military exercises and normally held regularly at those drills, follow north korea, firing 3 missiles, one of them i need to continental ballistic nissan. japan and south korea detected them being fired from soon on towards the sea of japan. the korean government
