5:00 pm
continued to die to how assist us in journalism. we framing the story. i am here to document the war crimes committed by what do and he is resumed. the listening post dissects the media on al jazeera. there's a wave of sentiment around the world if you will actually want accountability from the people who are running their countries. and i think from people's voice is not heard because that is not part of the mainstream news narrative. obviously we cover the big stories and we report from the big events going on. but we also tell the story to people generally don't have a voice. remember another child that's never be afraid to put your hand up north question. and i think that's what i've never really done. we ask the question for people who should be accountable. and also we get people to give their view of what's going on. ah, yemen who the rebels and the saudi led coalition agreed to extend a sci fi that has been in place for 2 months.
5:01 pm
ah, madame laura kyle, this is al jazeera live from doha. also coming up. major oil producers will increase production. i'm at ease sanctions on russia over its war in ukraine. platinum, jubilee britain. pro celebrations for the you queen elizabeth 70 years on the throne. and the u. s. left flank restrictions to cuba. it says it's aiming to ease the humanitarian situation on the island. ah, they begin in yemen where the, who's the rebels and saudi lead lesson have agreed to extend
5:02 pm
a truce by another 2 months in special envoy has commended the warring parties saying the existing truth has already led to a drop in civilian deaths and an increase in fuel deliveries since april, who has killed more than a 150000 people and displaced millions since it began in 2014. as crazy one, the worst humanitarian crises in the world will la copa only debbie. germany's are mostly optimistic about the results that we hope the truce will be extended and other issues that haven't been resolved over the past period will be addressed as well. including the opening of roads and crossings, a lemon una yemenis are tired of this war and are fed up with the current situation . all parties must work hard to put an end to this war. and the siege, the united nations must put pressure on the obstinate party men, or rather an owner. why should i think it is clear that there are positive signs indicating that the truce will be extended and the war will come to an end, such as the opening of scenario full and launching flights to and from jordan's
5:03 pm
a murmur that is that also allowing the entrance of oil tankers, and i don't have it in the laura, i believe that the truce is part of the solution, but unfortunately it was not implemented by the aggression countries. it was implemented theoretically and not realistically will improve. well, a dollar tab has more now from santa, on the terms of the extension regarding the people of the, of mr. the have, are received such news with the, with mixed feelings. some of them believe that the, the previous truce hasn't fulfilled their terms. and they're the, the human mr to a, the humor, the dye of human situation continues to versus the, especially with the impact of the current war between ukraine and russia. yemenis has been pushed father to, to, to, to, to, to bring a farm. and because the, the, the, the non payment of salaries, which have been stressed by the health is now a supreme council that the, the next,
5:04 pm
the next truce should, should include the fall payment of for the, of the monthly salaries for public workers. this is essential for the, for alleviating the humanities suffering according to human rights activists. so many hope this next round of truce would pave the way for also negotiation between the warring sides in order to put to resolve their differences on the negotiating table. christmas amy is at the un headquarters in new york and christian. it is still early that in new york. but have we seen any reaction from the u. n. yet? i was able to speak to an official close to the negotiations. i was told that these negotiations went right down to the wire. the announcement of the extension of the truth came on the very last day, and there was a lot of tension,
5:05 pm
not clear on whether or not the parties would go forward with that, given that there were some unresolved issues. namely, the roads and ties still being unopened. to the extent that the parties had hoped for, but at the end of the day, civilian deaths were down by more than 50 percent. according to the norwegian refugee council, it was the 1st nation wide truce since 2016, the 1st time the parties even came face to face, to talk to each other since 2018. so here at the united nations, it's seen as a victory and an a hopeful sign that this is changing the trajectory of the war in the words of hans greenberg, who was the special envoy, intensely negotiating right up to the last minute. no, i mean i certainly bought some time a may another 2 months, but what's the plan going forward? well, there's so a lot of work to be done to actually implement the piece plan of the truce plan if
5:06 pm
you will. working on reopening those roads, d escalating, the military situation even further. and the other reason he was so relieved to have some progress here is because this is one of the world's greatest. if not the greatest humanitarian crisis facing the united nations. you have $18000000.00 people in yemen who are on the brink of starvation a, an appeal for $4300000000.00, nearly $4300000000.00 to help the situation there. to put it in perspective, that's more than it is being raised and asked for, for ukraine right now. and attention has shifted away from yemen. so people, there are really suffering at a time when food prices are going up. so the u. n is really focused on trying to raise money to keep progress. going to make these advances more tangible to people on the ground and, and get people back to life as normal by extending the terms and working to extend
5:07 pm
the truth. even further christians let me bring us the news is that from the united nations in europe, thanks very much. pressed him now the wells leading oil producers have agreed to increase the output. opec members on the opec plus partners will raise output by $648000.00 barrels a day in july and august. latest boost will compensate for a drop in russian oil. moscow's production fell about $1000000.00 bows per day in recent months. as a result of western sanctions after its invasion of ukraine. let's go live now to dominic cane is in berlin with maul forest. and what details do we know dominic about this increase in output? what we know is that the countries concerned have it effectively decided to accelerate their production by the numbers you were saying there. what that
5:08 pm
actually contains is september's output being accelerated, brought forward and divided into in the month of july and august. so we had been expecting $432000.00 barrels a day, increase what opec and opec plus have decided upon is to excel or even further. in other words, more than 50 percent is being pumped is going to be pumped from the opec plus countries in july and august. in a way to try to offset precisely what you were referring to there. what's the russians have been doing? there's also the aspect to consider here that pressure has been put on several of the leading opec and opec plus countries from the united states and other organizations, other blocks as it were, to increase oil production. and now it's pretty clear that the countries concerned of said they will do that and they will use what they were expecting to have in september early. so what effect will let us isn't have
5:09 pm
well, that's where it becomes more of a projection. the interesting thing is that the price of brent crude, which is one of the main benchmarks the price of a barrel of oil, had been slipping in the course of the last few days prior to this missing. and once the statement had come from opec plus about the boosting production that had gone back up a little. so it's clear people have been focusing on what might happen. the interesting thing here is the geopolitical armesis are saying in the last few seconds that the point is to perceive here is the pressure that has been put by the united states and others on the saudis, on other seriously large oil producing countries to accede as it were to their desires, which is to prevent the russians from profiting from
5:10 pm
a surgeon oil prices. and there are those analysts who look at what's been decided in vienna virtually and say, well, that appears to be a step towards the united states camp from opec of opec. plus, the interesting thing here also is that when you read the communicated, submerge from the meeting, they say another meeting on the 30th of june. so perhaps we should wait to see what will happen then at the end of this month. because as i was saying earlier, what we've announced now only really refers to july and august, it doesn't take as much further into the course of the of the year. so we have to keep watching as it were dead we well dominic came joining us from berlin. thanks very much. i ah, ukrainian president says russia now occupies a 5th of ukraine. bottom is zalinski says, told at luxembourg parliament, his troops are up against almost the entire russian army with frontline,

stockholm 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 a more, ah, important place 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. all pollution, may we have the 1st award for autumn avail?
