6:01 pm
ah, this is al jazeera ah. hello, i'm rob matheson, this is the news are live from doha, coming up with like 60 minutes. renewed calls for tougher gun laws in the us out of a gunman opens fire at a primary school in texas, killing 19 students. i'm to teachers. i'm here on this floor too big to literally get down on my hands and knees and beg my colleagues find a path forward here. failure of leadership, a scathing report is released and the u. k. on violations of locked on roles by the prime minister and others. again, as russian horses are making,
6:02 pm
a concentrated effort to destroy everything as they push on weather assaults in the east. the russians are about 20 meters away, but this is william drange of the rocket. and they can even hit it with artillery. and that's the fear that no place in ukraine is safe. and the gabby says it's ready to prosecute the former president. yeah, here, yama, for the scenes of crimes committed while he was an office. i'm devin ash, with sports is no joke, james, for a place in the 3rd round of the franchise. and, but there's yes, another shock in the women's role is greek for maria actually is down south and round. ah, we're going to begin this news are in the us whether been growing calls for tougher gun control laws after a primary school shooting in texas. a government open fire rob elementary, in ovalo, a,
6:03 pm
killing 19 kids and 2 teachers. it's the worst mass school shooting in the united states. and a decade, 13 children are in hospital and 66 year old woman's in critical condition. lou said the attacker barricaded himself in a classroom and began shooting with a semi automatic rifle. officers were finally able to enter the room and kill him. but does goes to so the intense, by having that type of weapon also multiple, no ammunition with him as well. and make an entry into that school where he's at that the body armor. what we do know for a fact though, is that it was a tactical vest. unsure right now there was any type of ballistic material where he type of ballistic panels inside the carrier, but again, shows the intent of this evil person going into this school. and having complete disregard for human life, and that shooting comes less than 2 weeks after another gum and shot and killed a 10 black americans in a racist attack at a supermarket in new york. you, as president joe biden made an impassioned appeal for politicians to act on gun
6:04 pm
laws. as a nation, we have dash, when in god's name, we're going to stand up to the gun law. me. when in god's name we do, we all know our gut needs to be done. list goes on and on. wellness grows when it include mash shooters of places like movie theaters, houses of worship. as we saw just 10 days go to grocery store in buffalo, new york. i am sick and tired. his wife is a democratic senator for connecticut for 20 children was shot dead in 2012 at sandy hoop school. he's also made a plea for action. what are we doing? there been more mass shootings in days in the year. our kids are living in fear every single time they set foot in the classroom because i think they're going to be next. what are we doing?
6:05 pm
this isn't inevitable. these kids weren't unlucky. this only happens in this country and nowhere else. our white house correspondent, kimberly hawkins joining us like, kimberly a passion and emotion and, and desperation essentially as certainly as far as the on the floor of congress is concerned. as far as the president is concerned, is anything likely to happen in legislative terms? well, there have been efforts that the democrats have been largely the party that has been pushing for tougher gun legislation to restrict the ability, for example, some people to by fire arms. or for example, background checks and limiting high capacity magazines, for example, or even some of the, a high of sort of weaponry in terms of uh, for example, the assault rifles. but the problem has been that once that is
6:06 pm
passed in the house of representatives that has been controlled by a majority of democrats when it gets to the senate, that is also controlled by democrats. there is a large proportion of republicans, and conservatives tend to be in this country. opposed to this type of legislation. they hold very dear the right to bear arms, which is entrenched in the 2nd amendment of the us constitution. and this has been a big part of the problem. in fact, we just heard a few. 1 moments ago in the u. s. said at the top democrat chuck schumer, challenging the republicans in the senate for an essentially blocking a lot of this legislation that has been targeting these types of crimes that we saw in texas. in other words, the legislation that might curb some of this violence. so the short answer to your question is, is anything likely to change? probably not. not unless the americans in this country vote for different
6:07 pm
legislatures who are more supportive of. c seeing different types of gun legislation and so far the american public has not had the appetite for that. kimberly or they, we can. so some pictures that are live pictures, bringing a, coming from the agencies now outside the school that sir rebel an entry in the town there in texas, people gathering outside the door, obviously still anxious for information as i understand it. there is still some sort of agree gray areas about what it has actually happened, but also in terms of the bit people who've been affected, the n r a, the biggest u. s. gun lobby is holding its convention to moral in texas. how do we expect them to respond to all of us? well, so far there's been no response from the national rifle association that is the largest gun lobby in the united states. a does have a very powerful hold on many of the conservative politicians. they support many of their campaigns for congress,
6:08 pm
and that is why many choose to restrict or pushed back on any effort to limit gun as they have any form or fashion in the united states. and so i will watch very carefully, we know in attendance will be the governor of texas for president donald trump and also the senator from texas. ted cruz. we also know in the midst of all of this that are watching very carefully, is that the president jo biden's nominee for the a t f for the alcohol, tobacco and firearms body. this is the body that overseas gun regulation in the united states. testifying on capitol hill. i the again the lobby very, very opposed to this domini doing all i can to restrict seeing this person being pushed through. in fact, it's been so effective in doing that. there's been no director to overseas his body since 2015. that is how powerful this lobby is in the united states. finally,
6:09 pm
we should point out that the u. s. president on his schedule is going to be talking about police reform today in the coming hours. we expect that he may be talking about this tragedy yet again, given the fact that this has been a very emotional issue for the president, it's something he campaigned on stricter gun laws and, and we expect that he may touch on this yet again in the coming hours as our white house correspondent, kimberly hawker, kimberly, as always, thank you very much indeed. i want to bring in the junior vegan, he's director of gun violence prevention of the center for american progress. he's joining us from austin and texas. sir. good. have you with us on all 0 from what kimberly was describing the, the, the legislative process for this or some sort of ledgers to legislative solution is pretty much out of reach waterville turnitin. sh. so yes, as you mentioned, it is a bit difficult to pass on. is any legislation at the federal level, however, an alternative is and has been to look at states. let's not forget that states also
6:10 pm
dictate some of gone some of the gone last. and we have seen some successes in some states that have adopted much stronger gone laws. unfortunately, we have also seen the opposite happen in states by texas or tennessee where in fact gone lot have become more weaker. but i think tentative approach is to look at state legislation and act there. and i think it's also very important to get gun owners who actually support stronger gone loss. i know this is country into it, but there are a lot of gun owners there that so or banning assault weapons, that support background checks to come out and advocate for those those laws. i think those 2 alternatives are very much needed, as you say, the right to bear arms as everybody knows and the u. s. is enshrined in the constitution. there are hundreds of thousands of gun owners in the u. s. who one would regard as responsible. they are, as you just described,
6:11 pm
they are interested in stronger gun laws. they have specific uses for the weapons that they buy. why is it that when it comes to the crunch, they are not prepared to step up and have their voices heard when it comes to bringing in that stronger legislation? yeah, thank you for the question. one thing i want to clarify, as you mentioned, yes, if the right to bear arms is in the 2nd amendment, but it's important that people know that the 2nd amendment is not unlimited. in other words, there can be regulations, stronger regulations in the country that don't go against the latest interpretation of the 2nd amendment. and in terms of your question of gun owners, i think sometimes they are afraid of stepping out because because of the minutes that are out there, for example, around the 2nd amendment, that the 2nd amendment is on limited on miss that if you start with certain legislation then all guns are going to be confiscated. again,
6:12 pm
those are all mis constructed by the national rifle association to block any action or any legislation or any support from gun owners themselves. one thing i do want to ask you about, because this is something that comes up time and time again, is the reference to the mental capacity of the individualist. so carry out this type of attack and it was referred to by donald trump during his leadership campaign. for the presidency that in terms of rather than changing the legislation rather than changing the nature of the weaponry key factor was to look at that for one to this is my interpretation. the mental capacity, the mental state of the individuals who carry about this kind of this kind of crime . why is that process is not in being augmented, shall we say, why do here so often that somebody has come to the attention of the authorities and yet for some reason that has not been a follow through with unfortunately, the result that we see this kind of action being taken. so there are many factors,
6:13 pm
many factors that lead to god to violence and to gun violence specifically. but again, keep in mind that many of these factors also occur and happen in other countries that don't see the level of violence that we've seen. the united states specifically gun violence, and i think the common denominator on all major attacks and all major instances of gun violence in the country is easy access to guns and the weak gun loss. now in terms of, of you asking about specific actions, they are laws that have been passed out of state level, call the extreme risk protection orders. that if a person has shown signs to be a danger to themselves or to others, that then they can temporarily be removed from any access and be prohibited temporarily from purchasing a gun. again, this is called xtreme risk protection orders. they have been passed in states like new york mallet and connecticut with some success in actually preventing mass shootings and suicide. the problem is that this law is not in place in all states.
6:14 pm
so therefore, in states like texas, that could be multiple signs. but the authorities don't have any power to do anything about it junior vargas. we appreciate you being with us and sir, and i just wanna thank you very much indeed for your time. thank you very much. senior leaders and british prime minister barak jones's office are being blamed for illegal parties at the height of corona virus. lock jones is comes off to civil servants to graze. 37 page reports into what so nice party gate. johnson has apologized, saying he takes full responsibility for breaching locked on rules. i want to begin today by renewing my apology to the house and to the whole country for the short lunchtime, gathering on the 19th of june, 2020 in the cabinet room. during which i stood at my place at the cabinet table in which i received a fixed penalty notice. and i also want to say mister speaker bubble that i take
6:15 pm
full responsibility for everything that took place. oh my god, we are humbled by the experience and we had learned our listening and i want to conclude by saying that i this is speaker, i am humbled. my have learned, oh and i want to, god, i want to conclude by saying that whatever the feeling, whatever the feelings of, of will come to that to come to that or whatever. the feelings of number 10 in the cabinet of his right to 3 to booker, which admire which i take full responsibility. let's go live to john hall in london, and john are the premier. so they're saying that he is humbled and he has learned his lesson, no doubt, he and others will be desperately king. that this just goes, fades into the background and everybody moves on. that's not gonna happen, isn't i?
6:16 pm
it doesn't look like it's going to happen. but frankly, it could happen that there wasn't a lot new in su grey's report. there was lots of detail, but much of the headline stuff was out there through a series of leaks. there's been a police investigation, much of it has already in the public domain. she found at failures of leadership and judgment over 16 at gatherings that she investigated that she said simply should not have been allowed. that to happen to that senior leaders in the government, political and official, must bear responsibility for a culture of excessive drinking in downing street. there are photographs involved as well. one of which was leaked on monday, which show the prime minister in a particularly unflattering light. but, you know, as i say, people are generally aware of all of this for is johnson apologizing twice now in the commons and in a press conference later taking full responsibility essentially saying look, he stands by his original contention that it never occurred to him that he was preaching any regulations when he attended briefly
6:17 pm
a number of gatherings when he had a quick drink with work colleagues who were operating within a bubble in down the street during the pandemic. he thought it was his duty to thank them to reward them for the work that they'd been doing. what happened afterwards, when some of those gatherings descended into major parties, he said he simply know about. he was appalled by it. indeed, he said in a press conference, a short while ago, a lot of the stuff i saw in suit grace report was news to me. i didn't know about it. everybody involved has got to learn lessons. we should have done things differently at their primary questions. this afternoon, the leader of the opposition kiersten mom was saying that there was no option for johnson except to stand down. that was repeated in a press conference. the in that we held, the johnson held about an hour later or so again, he was being pressed on whether not he was going to step down. i how damaging could this be for boys johnson? but he made it pretty clear he hasn't at any point thought about resigning he
6:18 pm
thinks he should be allowed to get on with the job. public opinion at this moment may differ. a brand new poll out by the polling company, you got suggest that 59 percent of britons think for his johnson should now resign or he and number 10 downing street may be hoping to turn the tide on that with a big headline, a policy announcement tomorrow thursday of government intervention to help with the growing at cost of living crisis. really the constituency he'll be most worried about they'll be most worried about are his own, m. p, 's, tory party and fees. he's addressing them later. he will be hoping that no more of them come on board with letters of no confidence that could trigger a leadership contest against him. that though could be a contest that is winnable for boris johnson, arguably the biggest threat that still hangs over his head is a parliamentary inquiry pending into whether he lied to m p's. when he told them last december, that no party had happened. no rules had broken,
6:19 pm
had been broken. we know his defenses. he didn't believe any rules had been broken . 70 percent, sorry. 74 percent of the public in that latest poll think that he did knowingly lie . and indeed, if he is found to have knowingly lied by a parliamentary committee, that is an offense for which there is a general consent consensus that a prime minister ought to resign. jonah, thank you very much. indeed, john hall in london. any more ahead of the news or including tear gas on the streets of islam. abida supporters of pakistan's, former prime minister in con, converge on the capital to demand new elections. a show of force. how the u. s. is south korea are reacting to the latest missile tests in north korea and later in the sport, a new world record. busy for the biggest wave ever surfed who's against president says russia's trying to destroy everything in the eastern don't
6:20 pm
boss region. vladimir zalinski surging the west to keep up a regular supply of heavy weapons to keep rushes. defense minister says there's no deadline for the fighting. and it will continue until it's goals are achieved. ukrainian officials say the russian offensive in the east is now in its most intense stage. i said big is in common toss in an area which has seen heavy shelling and air strikes. if you decide to start totally, the authorities here at 2 o'clock this morning, and just to give you an idea that this is an empty billable hitter, i trade in the morning, we felt the shock waves hotels. me were wilkin. why hold tell, shaking from back, move the explosion now if percent heads 100 meters to the left or to the right, then it would have the residential buildings have the shockwave. if i can just show you took every single window. i'm even speaking to the residence and some of them said that the rebel building was feel across into the apartment one i live in
6:21 pm
grandchildren. he sent them to new way of the country. but had they been a massive concrete bold that had landed on his grandchild and he was in tears. many people have already left recently because of the fighting. the russians are by 25 kilometers away. but this city is william range of the rockets, and they can even hit it with artillery. and that's the fear that no place in houston ukraine safe. this is the scene across hasn't been the didn't i think is in the don bus region. in fact, in the next region, one of the reasons has been done by the government. they have been 12, people killed the last 24 hours. and the gun rooms are 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, mary pulled them discover $200.00 bodies under the rubble of an apartment building . that's one of the largest number,
6:22 pm
highest number of 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 be making their wanted on several axes. putting many talents it gets rather reach of the artillery and rockets. but this was an air strike. and that just shows that the russians are able to strike any place at anytime. russian president vladimir putin visited troops who wooded in ukraine for the 1st time. the kremlin says more than 1300 russian soldiers have been killed and nearly 4000 wounded. the nato officials said the number is much higher with roughly 30 to 40000 russian troops killed, wounded all taken prisoner in ukraine. but the songs, former prime minister, him wrong cons, cold and his supporters to stage as citizen in islamabad to demand you elections con, who was removed from office after no confidence vote. last month arrived in charlotte and a helicopter is now trying to march to slum abide with the supporters. but the government has blocked roads leading into the capital and deployed to thousands of security
6:23 pm
personnel. and police are fired to tear gas and use the battle against supporters of the wrong con. interior minister says nearly 1700 people have been arrested. schools have been closed and there's heavy police and part of military presence. awesome. all. hi, this life for us in a slumber by talk us more about the security around the government sites where you take care to jane dated. you ready to die? you can see over my shoulder the crowd had gathered it right in front. dull parliament dictated d square, right? ever on k g. we'll bring a march. little while ago the police you and every year get dish. but george growled, but they keep coming back and the police continuing to shatter them. now, although the court said that the people should be allowed to come to the march, that no address should be made. the government team,
6:24 pm
they're dealing with data red denied, and they've been trouble. and upon job problems, scuffle good. the police and major cities that have got that now spread to the southern port city of karachi granted by him. ron han conroy which had been removing all the adult sticker that's moving towards if not, my boss isn't going to be the main menu where they are gather and of gosh, i've got a report budget on politic. there's the ability to question at their diamond day, cannot make crises that also plaguing the country. so indeed, 10 developments across by august on m, ron north by june down saying that there's government has to go and that pressure lecture should be held within 3 months. the last time the iran con, encouraged a demonstration like this, the grounds of parliament were beach and constable to call the guns for several weeks. i'm assuming the authorities are not going to want to repeat of that. and from what you're saying, they're going to be fairly heavy handed in their response where
6:25 pm
they have been heavy handed. indeed they're rated their lead nitrate. they've arrested b birthday views for against protectors on protect the budget on the constitution gather. indeed the right to protect the right to speech, and therefore the god of god had said that these people should not be arrested. but we've seen people or been rounded up. and i've got this really become very serious because that you mentioned there was sure didn't in 2014 now it's happening head again, that same spot. and one thing is quite clear, the crowd gather in danger of town and richard expected. and then there's no porch read in this area which can stop them. and if jude, they can go right in front of parliament read. well, thank you very much. didn't come all high to talking to us from islamabad. let's
6:26 pm
bring in sharp zion. he's a senior fellow at the same time can time law, but he's coming from join to us from london. very good. have you with us, sir on al jazeera? how bad could this get? do you think it could get quite bad? because unlike 2014, where the prime minister, the ex prime minister and ron khan was at that time in the opposition and insisting that an election had been stolen from him. this by no evidence to back that up. at that time he had the support of the pocket money security establishment, or at least some sections of it. and they were able to camp out in islam about for over 4 months. right in front of parliament, there was a tax on the television headquarters, an attack on parliament that was conducted in concert with another group that was both testing at the same time. so hahn has definitely got the capability not only of fulfilling his threat of coming into his law badge,
6:27 pm
but also of taking extreme measures like attacking parliament. i think one thing that was interesting in kamala reporting was the idea that the supreme court has allowed for the protest to be held. and then he also mentioned that these people, if they're in the several thousands, they may come all the way to parliament. the supreme court has actually directed the p d, and run on to not approach the front of parliament or the sensitive areas where the supreme court is located and other government offices are located. the supreme court has instructed the bpi and i'm running on to limit and restrict their protests to a specific area, which of course, a man con has announced that he will not do. you may turn that, you may turn that back. but as, as of right now, it looks like a dangerously confrontational situation. pakistan as a country like many other countries which is facing food issues is facing an economic struggle as well. all of this, of course,
6:28 pm
is taking away from the decision making process that would move the country all. this is just kicking all the problems that pakistan has overall down the road in many ways, isn't it? absolutely, but there is no road left out. sooner or later and my own estimates and when economists are talking about in terms of pakistan's debt obligations, a lot of re payment that is due this year and next year, sooner later, the end of the road in terms of what can be kicked down the can is going to approach there was already some dangerous talk about a potential extended caretaker set up. now the constitution does not allow for that whatsoever and boxed on zone history. is that any experiment with back to sunny democracy ends up hurting the country and setting it back many years? i think another experiment of that nature would definitely set back pocket on decades. now, having said all this, the principal responsibility for the crisis today is not really on around hon,
6:29 pm
who governed over the beginnings of this crisis, nor is it prime minister abbas street. and it's coalition who come in and have had their hands tied by an impossible situation. the principal responsibility for this is the people within the boxes on the security establishment that have been experimenting with the free fair, incredible elections as they did in 2018. and then with regime change as they, as they helped, and act simply by pulling their support from around on earlier this year. so i think at the end of the day, the people that are most responsible for this crisis are the ones that are going to have to make a substantial kind of decision about the future of the country that they hold so much power in something akin to in 1998 in indonesia and short of that i'll be coming back to does ita and having to analyze similar crises several times over the next few months and repeatedly in the years to come. we appreciate your time is
6:30 pm
always much appreciated, sir. thank you very much. indeed. you're welcome. still head on al jazeera. ah, yes, yes. they find it ironic that the right inside the headquarters of with concerning the philippines about them and formally proclaimed the next president and in support. something you may not see again for a very long time, more from the n b a playoffs. later in the news. ah, now the winds gave it persistent, tickly down the gulf. remember that's been sandstone in iraq. this is the remains of miss. so brownie orangey stuff is the still the dust, the sound of the atmosphere is growing again is concentration in the middle of
6:31 pm
saudi arabia. the wind is still blowing strongly and certainly whipped up. the waves in the gulf is not particularly full of dust, but it's a dusty atmosphere all the way down south to omari, which has been particularly hot recently. i mean the story throughout the middle east. the moment is of course, hot and dry. it will be for months, but the persistent wind is a bit of a nuisance and is long lasting suns out then. no hot father iraq, it's all the way back to the coast. the sand potential for more least dust ohms gathering in jordan, for example, the heat in iran is being knocked back a bit is normally breeze has taken her up down about 10 degrees. the day between thursday and friday on saturday. you swap the difference. the wind still blowing the still dustin, the edge, probably no more of it. now in tropical africa, this is the time the year where you'd like to see probably the end of the significant range in kenya. what they barely started, to be honest. there are shouting the forecasts in kenya, and the theory has one or 2 in somalia, but not by this should be more considering had little has fallen in kenya so far
6:32 pm
this month. ah, how and why did wooten become so obsessed with this law? we were giving them a tool to hold corrupt individuals and human rights abusers accountable. they're going to rip this deal apart if they take the white house of 2025. what is the world hearing, or we're talking about why american today your weekly take on us politics and society. that's the bottom line. in just under a year's time catalyst al bait stadium will host the opening match of the 2022 world cup. the official opening of the stadium came on day one of the arab cup, but many friends were already counting down to the big kickoff. next, november, c, u. r. o 1022. as this tournament unfolds over the coming days, it will play a key role. organize is getting ready to host the middle east's biggest ever school thing event next year. and for the castle national teams, they get used to playing in fronts of expected home crowds. debbie hoping to
6:33 pm
convince both the fans and themselves that they really are ready to take on the world. ah ah, what's your, i'll just need a reminder about told stories this hour that are going calls for tougher gun control laws in the us are gunman killed 19 children and 2 teachers at elementary school in texas. it's the worst mass school shooting in the united states and a decade. lawless johnson takes full responsibility again for several parties in his home, which breached brittany for one of ours lockdown rules. opposition. he says the prime minister showed complete contempt for the british people. brains president
6:34 pm
says russia is trying to destroy everything eastern. don't boss, region crashes. defense minister says there's no deadline for the pricing and it will continue until it goals are achieved. so career and the us have carried out life fire drills and responds to north korea's latest missile long since the drill started. hours after president joe biden flew home from meeting south korea's new president, use a fuel at the weekend, both agreed to hold large military exercises on a regular basis of korea. $53.00 missile is one of them, an intercontinental ballistic missile. javan and sorry to be detected them being 5 from soon on towards the sea of japan. south korea, as government describes the missile test as a grave provocation, robert bryant has more from tokyo please. the 3 miss elsewhere detected just after daybreak, fired from the sioux 9 area. this is northwest of the capital young gang. it's the location of young young's airport flying east towards the sea that separates the
6:35 pm
korean peninsula from japan. the national security council of south korea, they can be in the meeting straight afterwards as they often do. there's also been a response from the japanese. the japanese defense minister is saying that these are provocations which are completely unacceptable. this is the 17th round of missile launches so far this year. sometimes they have been multiple launches as with this one today, wednesday. in the past though, we've also seen single missed our launches. i think what concerns the intelligence community here in japan and south korea and in the u. s. is the sophistication of some of these missiles. we've had a submarine launch, ballistic missile type being tested for the 1st time, fired from the water, or the north koreans mastering the technique of launching this also in submarine. also at the end of march, there was an intercontinental ballistic missile. the kind of heavy, a missile capable of reaching the continental united states, that the kind of missile that hasn't been fired since 2017, with
6:36 pm
a warning from defense officials in japan, in south korea. and also in the us that we can probably expect more testing of icbm in the future at the south koreans and the u. s. military have promised greater cooperation in response to all list is now a conservative administration in south korea, including of course, what may be more military exercises joint exercises. but those are the kinds of things that often anger north korea, prompting them to launch more missiles the gambia says it's ready to prosecute a former president's young, gemini, and other officials involved in crimes. under his rule, a government appointed commission investigated atrocities committed between 19942017. i'm address is in bon job with more. a lot of recommendations were made by the t r. c or the truth reconciliation repression, commission. 256 recommendations were med. i'm out of those 456. the minister of justice said only to water injected. one of them, of course,
6:37 pm
was the banning and the trial or prosecution, affording judges working in the can be under for my lead i a job then jump can be looking for or judicial offices. and they had to go to sucking countries to get some judges with expertise in the judicial system who subbed under jeremy. those were the ones were recommended for band for being banned from the gumby, also being prosecuted, not the government rejected. however, victims survivors, victim families, activities, diplomats and everybody. we came here this morning with expectations that they will be disappointed at the end of the day. however, i spoke to one lady was father. by the way, she's nice to for my president, john, me. how father and his sister disappeared was forcibly taken from their homes, and nothing has been heard from them since 2005. and i asked him what tom feeling
6:38 pm
