even though it's reportedly only a few dozen. and it'll take at least 3 weeks to train the ukrainian forces and how to use them. some military experts say the new weapons will still have an impact. so once you have those systems, the range and precision they offer, i think open up a lot of different battlefield options for the ukrainians to do things like destroy command control posts that are further back from the front to destroy, ah, logistics, a, logistics and supply chains for the russians that allow them to keep advancing the homer system can fire 6, gps guided rockets at a distance of around 70 kilometers and can be reloaded in about a minute. it's on wheels, so can quickly move after fire and other experts say, this should have happened long ago. those triple 7 should have been there months

and months ago, for example. and these high mars as well. so the administration is following its own pattern. they should actually announce that they're going to deliver the longer range systems, the capabilities as soon as possible. but the biden administration is clearly concerned about provoking russia. and the russians did react like these conditional issues. these risks certainly exists, of the things that the key regime, unapologetically demands from its western patrons. firstly, overstep all bounds of decency and diplomatic relations. and secondly, our direct provocation, aimed at drawing the west into combat. president joe biden, pendant out bed this week to say he's adamant us troops will not be in the fight. but he has decided to give you crane the most sophisticated weapons yet hoping it may be enough to prevent future russian successes on the battlefield. patty calling al jazeera washington. so what exactly is the system?

the americans are sending to ukraine of high miles, multiple launch rocket system or m a r s. can similar pay me a slave farm, multiple precision guided missiles. it's 70 kilometer range is almost twice fac of the m triple 7. how it is already provided to cranium forces. the longer range version of the miss out can reach target 300 kilometers away, but that isn't being given to the ukrainians. the us military has already based high miles units in europe, nato allies, poland, and romania also have some. russian forces have reportedly entered the center of the eastern ukrainian city of savannah, done the sculptor weeks of heavy fighting. ukraine is attempting to bolster its forces in the east where its fighting rushed on many fronts. moscow has focused it's offensive on these dumbass region after failing to advance on given other western regions. spoke has been billowing over the city of bar,

mentioning the other mouse shooting that happened just 10 days after this carnage and buffalo. and this is in texas where 19 school children and their teachers who are gunned to death in move all day. that tragedy still unfolding with funerals, taking place and these back to mat back now, shootings again, we're not in the debate in the united states over gun laws. and again, the soul searching the unanswered question of why this continues to happen. the white house is revokes a series of restrictions on flights. the cuba restrictions imposed by the trump administration were designed to increase economic pressure on the cuban government . the biden administration in recent weeks is also open the door for cubans joined family members in the u. s. on the temporary basis with the potential for obtaining permanent status and it lifted restrictions on the amount of remittances sent to cuban citizens. when it comes just the head of the summit of the americas original

as sort of committed itself to regime change. here are it has stimulated provocative efforts by social media to create rallies sort of like the arab spring. and so i think the administration feels that in fact, it could bring about regime change. and i think that's how the cubans to see the cubans perceived that the united states is aimed at. so overthrowing regime, it's going to be hard to find some common interest to this is president guy cited has sac $57.00 judges accusing the most corruption. he said he given a warning after warning to the judiciary to purify itself, present side also alleged they've been protecting people accused of terrorist

ah, welcome back. you're watching al jazeera time to recap the headlines now. russia is accusing the united states have deliberately adding fuel to the fire by supplying advanced precision guided rockets to ukraine. kremlin says it doesn't trust assurances from washington. the rockets will not be fired into russia. at least 4 people have been killed, including the attacks or the latest mass shooting in the u. s. a man armed with a rifle and hand gun opened fire inside the medical building in tulsa, oklahoma. the white house is revoked, a series of restrictions on flights to cuba. the measures were imposed by the trump administration to increase the pressure on the cuban government. now the war in ukraine is fueling a global food crisis. many countries are concerned about food shortages,

the restricting exports in this begun reducing sugar exports blaming, rising domestic prices. part of them, it's all reports from other profession how farmer's feeling, the impact ah, after being packed and see this batch of sugars headed to the board, india has already exported a record 7 and a half 1000000 tons the season. now the government has kept shipments to ensure there is enough left over for domestic consumption get you're looking. i look, she lamps, company has been refining sugar for 90 years and he says the new rules could affect farmers incomes. the sugar season starts in november and the government would always like a minimum stock in the country of about 2 months, consumption or 2 and a half months conduct, which is somewhere around $6000000.00 tons. it's been a bumper harvest with the world's top sugar producer. international demand is high

banking fears or with domestic shortage during the festive season. later this year, when high global prices and a strong dollar have opened up business opportunities for farmers and traders, soaring inflation and concerns about food security back home had prompted the government to implement protective measures including restricting wheat exports. wheat farmers such as on j party hope to cash in on a favourable international market. prices rose after rushes, invasion cut supply from the black sea region but a scorching heat. we have an india threatened output and the government band most exports to control domestic life. that affected farmers profit, so got to go to the, the government price, it was higher last year, so we saw them more. this time, the rates are lowered from a reproduction is much lower. it kept dreaming, and there was water logan to which impacted the harvest. economists say these

restrictions to little to reduce inflation. india credibility as the reliable ex order of friday. our commodities is going to be a see to see that it's i don't see this as a good signal is either ask for a government comment, but we didn't get a reply. many countries have urged india to lift its ban on wheat exports. government leaders said they would relax the bad, but a will consider requests from vulnerable countries. partner middle al jazeera with their british in northern india. the world health organization says it doubts north . korea's response to the covered 90. now break is effective. the w h o says the situation is getting worse and is, is have no access to data. beyond that publicly reported more than 390000 people in the country were said to have a fever about 2 weeks ago. said media says log bounds of being enforced in some provinces of 2 month cove. at 19 locked down in china's biggest city has been

relaxed. most of shanghai is 25000000 residents now free to leave home and businesses can gradually resume operations. katrina, you reports from the capital bay ging where restrictions imposed on the china 0 cove with strategy of also been east millions of people in shanghai county down to midnight on wednesday, celebrating the end of a strict to month pandemic locked down. there were scenes of joy and excitement as people socialized outdoors into their cars. for the 1st time in weeks. st barricades has been removed. supermarkets, restaurants, and parks are reopening. public transport has resumed. china's biggest city and commercial center is slowly coming back to life. after being shut down at the end of march, more than $600000.00 cru. lara's infections were recorded in what was the country's

worst outbreak since the pandemic began artist. soon sean was visiting the city and became stuck at his hotel, an initial 5 day locked outstretched to more than 60 days. he is relieved, it's over, but remains distrustful of the government government the older. so they tell people all the 5 days. so i think by better you know, the government always lied to people the more. busy the more and more longer and the longer and the longer and no, andy, no people, when it's finished, there was widespread anger along with confusion of food shortages and a lack of access to emergency medical care. the lockdown also crippled supply chains and slowed the economy. property in car sales, the service sector and retail consumption all plummeted in april. analysts say recovery won't be quick, easy, after the initial phase or there might be more disappointments on because the

reality is on the consumer confidence is dampens. our property market is still weak . all those are weaknesses, the other parts of economy was still there and not addressed. and on top of that income growth has slowed significantly. so after the left, a lot of restrictions, i think there is a lot of work has to be done. shanghai authority say the city has achieved milestone in its battle against the virus in a letter. they thank to president for their patience and apologized for the inconveniences caused people in shanghai may be celebrating for now. but the memory of this one walked down won't easily be got. china's leaders refused to live with the corona buyers, and any new outbreak can result in the lives of millions be offended without mercy . katrina you out a 0 aging south korea's governing party as one in most major cities after local elections were held on wednesday. the people power par who secured 12 out of 17

positions that included maya and governor posts main opposition. democratic party want only 5 major positions, party line, slide victory, seen as a boost for the new president unit. so q from brian has more from saw. he won this in a very lackluster campaign, a very small victory, margie and he made some popular decisions which again, sorry his popularity plummet. so since he's in o gratian, though he does seem to have steadied the ship, if you like, he does seem to be the person who has a steady hand on the helm is at least that's how it's regarded. people seem to like his tough stance with north korea. he has had a good, a summit visit from president, said joe biden, of the united states. and so these does seem to strengthen his hand with his domestic agenda, but also politically with his neighbors. in particular, this does seem to give him

a boost to go out and try to restore relations with japan, for example, which is always a very controversial subject here. that in turn would seem to depend at the try try part tripartite alliance with the united states. and between them, it seems that taking a much tougher stand with north korea, germany has launched transportation scheme aimed at combating inflation and high fuel call. until september, people have unlimited access to public transport for just $10.00 a month. there's dominant cain reports from berlin. some say the policy doesn't go far enough whether by tram train or bus over the next 3 months, journeys with these are much cheaper. for $10.00 or 9 years a month, passengers can now get unlimited local and regional travel around the country. we have prepared a bunch of bon as good as possible. for example,

with additional train. 250 train every day in our network in germany. and we have additional person out on the train and also in the, in the railway station. so we tried to best to be prepared at a time when inflation is higher than it has been for a long time. ministers hope this policy will ease some of the financial pain caused by rising prices. this is what the package a get prevent 9 euro, a ticket to ride anywhere in this country which can be bought in the paper version on a smart phone. alms with one of these, theoretically, i can take most of the train, tramadol buses, the stop at the station, but most people who use this unlikely to be can you so what do they make of it? i just thought it is great because i used to buy a 6 and now it's nice and i have to go to work every day. so it was the biggest press i use public transport a lot different city, unique cologne,

berlin. so it's very convenient, but by making public transport much more affordable, if only for 3 months, this is a green policy. so the theory goes, but some people say it doesn't go far enough. we need to invest a lot more, especially in our real systems. and that's not something that you can do overnight . also not something that is done in 3 months, so we need more trains. we need longer train, we need to build more train tracks. we need more buses. these are all things that take take time. the cheaper season ticket has been introduced to coincide with a cut in fuel costs for motorists. the price of petrol, the pump has risen sharply since the war in ukraine. at 1st glance on wednesday, prices do seem now to be dropping. so taken together, the politicians in charge believe what they are introducing will make a difference. the next 3 months will tell us whether most germans agree. dawn it

came out to 0. berlin. in crane one win away from the fee for world comp encounter. also the freezing scotland 3 to one in a qualifier playoff will next up. they play wales on sunday in college. if the when event match will had to counter pull rece reports from glasgow on an emotional wind for ukraine. oh, but pipes welcome to ukraine funds to hand him pop for their world cup, qualifying knockout against scotland. the winners would go one game away from qualifying for cattle. 2022 1st and 2nd generation ukrainians traveled from all over the world to see that team's 1st competitive game. since the russian invasion, i think the lead emotional game boy printer, fonts and all kind of fans in ukraine as well. the community rarely coming together . so paul, waiving the 5, if i and i can tailor,

you can get represented by some national tomb at this time is probably the most important thing in the world for us. i think that is again for one overseas. gov and we want to win a dispute slightly bigger postpone from its original date in march, the much began with a pause for the ukrainian anthem from the scottish crown, who kick off. sympathy was forgotten to play, but ukraine didn't need it. they created the early chances with half an hour gone. they got their reward easy. aman, i grinned behind. andre. ja malenko getting them a step closer to catch a straight up the half time the world cup got closer still. if you're able to stay with you to roman urine, chuck with a simple header to nil ukraine. look what it may say. the scot thought they had got back in it, but john mccann incredibly headed while he's talking with just

over 10 minutes to go. dole, keeping her, let scotland make it to one kellum mcgregor's shot just going over the line just so on are much in yes, but with the final take of the much autumn of the race through to seal a $31.00 victory dog and give ukrainians around moments of joy in a tragic few mom. oh jim, what's in the month? i have no emotions. to be honest with you. all of my emotions are lift on the foot will pitch. this victory was not for me. it wasn't for the team members. it was for our country, so it was a huge win for ukraine craziness. and that should lend us your price point is a product that waited a long time for the specter, but i honestly americans of what's happening to that country to bring i world kept dream tantalizingly life whole race. i was just urban was.
