a drop and russian output. its fallen around a 1000000 barrels a day in recent months, as a result of western sanctions. after russia invaded ukraine on the ground and ukraine, russia says it has several targets in the east. in the past 24 hours. it claims to have destroyed thousands of pieces of equipment, including aircraft, anti missile systems, and other artillery. russian forces have taken control of more than 70 percent of the city of seattle john. yet in the eastern dom boss region, the city is important to moscow's efforts to complete the capture of the well, the ukranian president says 62 a 100 ukrainian soldiers are being killed each day. but that could change with the u. s. agreeing to supply advance precision guided rockets to ukraine. moscow says washington as only adding fuel to the fire article, henry ford's in eastern ukraine. it is now a battle of artillery. up until now ukraine unable to hit some of the russian

artillery systems that are causing this damage because they are too far away. that is why they asked us for long range artillery systems. and now the bind administration has decided to give them medium range instead helping ukraine will try not to provoke moscow specifically with regard to weapon systems being provided . the ukrainians have given us assurances that they will not use these systems against targets on russian territory. there is a strong trust bond between ukraine in the united states, as well as with our allies and partners. but when it comes to these critical weapons, the says it will provide only for systems and won't say how many gps guided rockets, even though it's reportedly only a few dozen. and it will 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, but just exit 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 can. yes. so this is just, 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 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. denmark has voted to join the european union's common defense policy in a referendum. more than 2 thirds of voters have chosen to overturn decades long from the scheme. danish officials can now get involved in you defense decisions, as well as supply troops or military operations. the referendum came off to russia,

the truces delivered over the last 2 months. we must be clear that the humanitarian needs for yemen, remain high. some 19000000 people will go hungry this year, including more than a 160000 who will face famine like conditions. more than 4000000 people have been displaced in the war started, severe needs persist across all sectors. and food isn't the only issue. many other needs persist. and the un humanitarian relief plan is only a quarter funded. at least 4 people have been killed and several injured and the latest mash shooting in the u. s. a man onto the rifle and hand gun open fire inside a medical building and tulsa, oklahoma. police say the attacker was also found dead. his motive is unknown. staying with the u. s. gun violence and an 18 year old man has in charge of murder and domestic terrorism in connection with last month's shooting in a supermarket in buffalo, new york. peyton kendra is accused of opening fire in the store,

a previous mass shooting in texas when it with hispanics who were targeted within a wal mart store. but we can't talk about this buffalo shooting without also 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 map back mass shootings again regarding the debate in the united states over gun laws. and again, the soul searching the unanswered question of why this continues to happen. south korea's governing party as juan and most major cities after local elections were held on wednesday. the people power party has secure a 12, a 17 positions which include mayor and governor posts. the main opposition democratic party won only 5 major positions. the parties winds are seen as a boost for a new precedence unit. so q, well,

it seems that taking a much tougher stand with north korea, the world health organization says adults that north korea's response to the coven 19 o break as effective, the w h o says the situation is getting worse and it has had no access to data beyond that publicly reported more than 390000 people in the country reported having a fever about 2 weeks ago. state media says locked downs or being enforced in some provinces. soon as you, as president to 57 judge is accusing them of corruption. i saw you had says he should warning after warning to the judiciary to purify itself. he also alleges the judges have been protecting people accused of terrorism. siad suspended parliament last year, and we got ruling by the creep. critics and opponents described his actions as a qu, as really for sense of till the palestinian man in the occupied west bank. the man

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 the regime. it's going to be hard to find some common interest. chillers no president has given his 1st state of the nation address. gabrielle bore a pushed for unity, but faces a slump in his approval ratings. when you are angry over the state of the country's economy and high rates of crimes or latin america editor, lucy newman has more from the city of voltaire range of president w bought each was keenly aware how much was riding with his 1st state of the nation . address it received an ovation when he announced the national plan for finding the bodies of thousands of people disappeared during chiles military dictatorship. because he said that if we don't know where the are and cannot healer will this.

global away is all the planets predicament off a century ago. would have corrected our trajectory towards climate catastrophe. but instead, more coal, more oil, more gas was burned and we are where we are today in a world where bio diversity is in collapse where deadly heat waves and wildfires tell a grim truth. where environmental disaster seems to be a weekly event somewhere in the world. the importance of this moment is, well 50 years ago. those reports set out very clearly what was needed to be done and the, and it hasn't been done. and of course, we might find ourselves pretty much on the edge of catastrophe, whether we're talking about waste pollution, climate growing inequality, poverty store comb declaration did presage the age of the environmental conference . what successes like the parents agreement in 2015. 0,

with these events or at the intersection at which science and political self interest collide and progress can be elusive to say the least weakening, but progress is needed now on some perilously important issues. like how the planet feeds and powers itself. we couldn't be in an, in a more, ah, important in the history of society. i would, i would say. and so i think it is critical that people turned their eyes towards stockholm and really see it. i said key moment in 1972, we saw the early days of environmental activism. they awarded a series of prizes to the olympic champions on pollution. may we have the 1st award for autumn avail? hello show. the protest movements has moved on since the message is the same spearheaded today by another product of stock. hope this has been a time where we have been reminded of how vulnerable we are. a current predicament

reinforces a point made 50 years ago, which today is more valid and troubling than ever. no one amongst us. what ever after this, strength or circumstance, can remain undetected. the have been certain victories like mending the whole in the ozone layer, or eradicating the production of leaded fuel. but those gathered installed comb 50 years on now confront perhaps the ultimate challenge. to bring us back from the brink of a climate emergency. nick clark, al jazeera in mexico, at least 11 people have been killed and another 33 are missing in the wake of hurricane agatha, it's the strongest hurricane ever recorded to hit mexico's pacific coast in the month of may money. while rappel our reports, flood waters have begun to recede on the coast of war. haka in southern mexico. residents, however, are still reeling from the impact of hurricane agatha. let me know, i mean,

seemingly every street a wash with flags and bunting for weeks, soldiers from household cavalry, tough with guarding the bullock have been rehearsing their steps. the platinum jubilee is as much a celebration of british traditions as it is 96 year old queen elizabeth's long reign. ah, but in the 70 years and she became queen a coronation a year later, the queen and country have profoundly changed back then. many of europe cities was scarred by the horrors of the 2nd world war. and the british empire, the once ruled, a 3rd of the world was melting away. queen elizabeth would help shape britain's new historic purpose, not as the queen of an empire, but of a commonwealth of multi national, multi racial states, and also as head of a royal family. the word in the coming years become the focus of intense media attention. as a family grew, so to the challenges the death of princess diana in

a car crash in 1997 provoked public anger, that the queen was in publicly mourning her death while millions were forcing her to break protocol and joined the crowds. more recently, the royal suffice, intense criticism over the handling of racism allegations by the queen's grandson, prince harry and wife megan, while sexual assault claims against prince andrew forced queen elizabeth to strip her son was touted as her favorite child of his royal titles. over the decades, presidents and prime ministers have been and gone. some of the most iconic figures of the past century. queen elizabeth consistently doing her duty. i think she played very well exactly the role because she's the one she's the most charismatic . so the photograph, most famous women, the wild, but she's also very enigmatic. we hardly know her, and i think being able to stay above politics,

but seen as relevant and respected has been really important here in the twilight of queen elizabeth's reign, a gentle reduction of royal duties after the death of her husband of 73 years. prince philip, in the midst of the pandemic, a time when queen elizabeth's words to the nation, i have scarcely mattered more. we will be with our friends again. we will be with our families again. we will meet again, even as more more people question the role and the purpose of a royal family. in a modern democracy, there is something of a coziness of familiarity to her long reign and genuine public affection for woman and a queen who ties past and present generations together. nave. walker al jazeera london, they were state of california. us has been told that should pay reparations and apologize for historic discrimination against african americans. camille, more as the chair of the california reparations task force. she says the
