is of short personal stories that highlight the human triumph against the odds. al jazeera, select generations. this indigenous community has lived off of what the vain florist provides. but when we discovered that their territory was being invaded by gold mining projects all along their river, the community brought a lawsuit against a po to us government. you've won, you wanna be unprecedented ruling obliges the state to consult communities over oil and mining projects that impact their land and to seek their consent. the tiny seemingly community has won a huge battle, but need to be, not necessarily had the last word. since the court ruling does leave room for exceptions in the name of overriding national interests,

ah, when you called for tough a gun laws in the us after a gunman opens fire at a primary school in texas, killing 19 students and 2 teachers. ah madison. this is audra 0 live from doha, also coming up to gas on the streets of islam, about supporters of pakistan's, former prime minister in long con, converge on the capital to demand new elections. failure of a leadership or scaling report is released in the u. k. on violations of lockdown goals by the prime minister and others, letting me put in office passports to people in russian control parts of ukraine, as war rages on the east. ah,

it had been growing calls would suffer gun control laws in the us after a primary school shooting in texas a gum, an open fire road, rob elementary, in valdez, killing, 19 canes, and to teachers. it's the worst moscow shooting in the united states. in a decade, 13 children hospital and a 66 year old woman's in a critical condition. please say 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, does 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 you some type of 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, you know that shooting comes less than 2 weeks after another gum, and shot and killed 10 black americans in a race it attack at a supermarket in new york. you, as president joe biden made an impassioned appeal for politicians to act on gun 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 and 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 of chris murphy is a democratic senator for connecticut, where a 20 children was shot dead in 2012 at sandy hook school. he's also made a plea for action. what are we doing?

there were 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? this isn't inevitable. these kids weren't unlucky. this only happens in this country. and nowhere else. our white house correspondent, kimberly hawkins, is joining us live, please for congress to do something. what are the chances that something can or will be done? well, we've seen legislation that has an effort to limit the purchase of certain firearms, particularly assault weapons that have passed in the house of representatives, thus the lower chamber of congress. but then when it gets to the upper chamber, the u. s. senate that's where much of this legislation seems to stall that has a large part to do because of a number of conservative republicans who feel very strongly that the 2nd amendment

. a really prohibit that, that is entrenched in the u. s. constitution the right to bear arms and that is something that many americans hold dear and believe that a is worth preserving in that any form of background checks or anything that might in any way limit that. 6 freedom is an infringement on that, right? and so that's why you see this pushback so vehemently in congress. and so this is the pushback that we've seen for decades in the united states. now we should point out that there has been strict gun laws in the past and pat fact back in 1994 the earth president joe biden, when he was a senator put in place of assault weapons ban. but it expired. after 10 years. his campaign to try and bring it back, but there just hasn't been the appetite and congress if you played that sound bite there from chris murphy. he's a senator from connecticut. i remember back in 2012,

the new town, connecticut tragedy, the sandy hook, elementary tragedy, similar number of children gotten down in that case. and in elementary school there, similar to what we saw in texas really no legislative change after that. so in terms of what's happened in texas, it's unlikely that we're going to see anything different. come out of this tragedy . the national rifle association is the biggest us gun lobby. it's going to be holding his convention to moral in texas. oh, do we expect them to respond to this? we don't expect there to be any sort of dramatic response. we haven't heard from the national rifle association so far. we do know that this is certainly ironic. it's going to be an uncomfortable situation for them. one would expect given the fact that their. a convention is being held in the state, not far from where this is occurred. the governor of the state is scheduled to appear at this lead. and we also know that for president trump, who is a starch supporter of the 2nd amendment,

as well as the a one of the top senators ted cruz, a republican from texas. we should also point out in the midst of all of this that the national rifle association, again, one of the largest or the largest gun lobby in the united states has been very effective and pushing back not just and gun loss, but also on the person to head the body that overseas a lot of the regulation of guns in the united states, unless the h yeah for the bureau for alcohol, tobacco and firearms. in fact, they've been so effective at doing so. there has not been a head of that agency since 2015. now, we should also point out that we have heard the u. s. president talking about this tragedy. we expect we may hear from him again. he is scheduled to appear before the cameras talking about police for, for him in the coming hours. but we suspect he may touch again on this tragedy given how it is gripped and upset. so many americans as so he, we're watching carefully to see what he may say about that in the coming hours and

i was, i was corresponding. kimberly hall. good. kimberly. thank you. please and focused on are far tier gosh and use their bottles again. supporters of former primary sodium, wrong con, interior minister says nearly 1700 supporters of the ousted fear of being arrested . cons called in his supporters to strangers, sitting in his slum about to demand new elections. the government's blocked roads leading into the capital in deployed closes of security. personal welcome on hunters, lifeless in islam about come, all understand that you close to well those demonstrations. tell us what's been happening where right now where we are, we did just shouting distant from harlem and that would intend failing. and there was a cloud of guys. in fact, they did the effect on the paper and even inside the building that you can see a little while ago, the code that you're behind me was pushed back by the police after the intent here

getting but they have now come back to the scene. i cross focused on and upon job and le hall major 50 the other part of the job. even in the city of karachi, there's been a couple 100 the police day administration coming down very hard on the paper, despite the fact that everyone has said that will be paid for under the buckets on the constitution. the freedom of speech movement and protested, enshrined in the constitution that your bream card has been telling the order not to you guys, but not for your guess at dollars and do not to detain people. but despite that, we have seen hundreds of islam of bar, then m. ron con conway, were just said to be tens of thousands of papers. had been breaking all the barriers above the containers and were just expected to read. i

reasons i that has been and it's clear from what sue gray has had to say. but some of these gatherings then went on far longer than was necessary, and they were clearly in breach of the rules and they fell. follow the rule. that report lays bad. the wrought that under this promised has spread in number 10 on it provides definitive proof of how those within the building treated the sacrifices of the british people. with utter contempt, when the dust settles and the anger subsides, this report will start as a body amount to the hubris, an arrogance of a government, but believed it was wrought mo, put them in another role, but every one else, jonah haul, has more from london. there wasn't a lot new in su grey's report that was not a 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 the 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 life. 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 a number of gatherings when he had a quick drink with work colleagues who were operating within a bubbling down the street during the pandemic. he thought it was his duty to thank them to reward them for the work that they've been doing. a brand new poll out by

the poland company you got suggest that 59 percent of britain think boys johnson should now resign. he and number 10 downing street may be hoping to turn the tide on that with a big headline. policy announcement tomorrow, thursday of government intervention to help with the growing cost of living crisis . russian president vladimir putin visited troops who been wounded in ukraine for the 1st time. the kremlin says more than 1300 russian soldiers have been killed and nearly 4000 wounded. but nato officials say the number is much higher with roughly 30 to 40000 russian troops killed, wounded or taken prisoner in ukraine. the kremlin made it easier for russian residence of rush, unoccupied parts of you trained to gain russian citizenship. president vladimir putin zisha the decree on wednesday. it offers fast track citizenship to people in

rather the passports of, for russian citizens that will become, will be signing up to join the russian federation agreement. official say the russian offensive in the east is now in its most in 10 stage. i said bag is in common tossed in an area which is seen having shelling and air strikes. this is a side to the instructor. told me the authorities here at 2 o'clock this morning. and just to give you an idea that this is an empty billable hitter on tray in the morning, we felt the shock waves at a hotel. you were welcome, hold, tell, shaking from back, move the explosion. if percent heads 100 meters to the left or to the rights, then it would have hit the residential buildings have the shock wave. 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 building was feel cross into the apartments and one letter of intent and grandchildren. he sent them to me on the country, but had they been
