1:02 pm
hello and welcome to the news and we start with the battle for eastern ukraine, where russia is attacking military and artillery centers in the low ham screeching . that's off to ukraine, regained some of its last territory, both sides claiming control of significant parts of the key city of savannah don. yet as go straight to zane bas ravi has been monitoring developments from a cave ukrainians. continue to take a bashing in the east. what is the latest picture on the grounds, i well, since the beginning of this, this war, it really has been a 20th century ground war being fought in the 21st century, which is made it difficult to keep pace with all of the quick changes that have been happening on the battlefield. one of the best sources of information that we've had been ukraine's western allies in the u. k. defense minister has put out a report since the 100 days of the war, saying that there's been
1:03 pm
a change that has been visibly noticeable since russia re mobilized to the east. and they said that what's happening is an increase of air activity in the dunbar region. what we're looking at is an increase in that era activity, an aerial bombardments to complement artillery on the ground to compliment russian ground forces moving into more and more ukrainian territory to take it over. and this has been in the way of using guided, as well as unguided bombs. and they said specifically targeting civilian areas, causing civilian collateral damage and in unknowable level of civilian casualties in the areas they've been taking over. now, $100.00 days and what is become a with a spotlight has come onto a city several minutes. we've been talking about it for weeks and that is now the place where the fiercest fighting in this war is still happening. and a lot of ukrainians were watching what's happening. a civilians, as well as those in government, in the military. they say what they're seeing as russia is doing to separate and that's what it did to mario, paul, it is trying to erase that city from existence. and so what that accomplishes for
1:04 pm
russia is that whether or not they occupy it, it is unoccupied, mobile for whoever tries to come back. now, the little bit of good news we've heard in the last 24 hours from the president's office is that there has been a pushback. what they have managed to do is push russians out of the center of the city and take back 20 percent of it. by the simple math, that means the crane now once again, controls 40 percent of that city. and crucially, what we thought 24 hours ago was a place that was imminently going to fall within weeks to rush and control. the fall of that city is much more likely now and what is key to keep in mind here is that the pace of the fighting is something that russia did not expect. ukraine has forced them to fight with every possible resource that they have for every inch of territory that they've tried to take over said with the nets has been contested, and it's still contested after a month of fighting there. okay, thank you for that same pers ravi there for us in keith. while the war is affecting
1:05 pm
commodity prices globally, a senior analyst from the us food and agriculture organization told al jazeera that the developing world is most at risk. julian wolf reports more than a 100 days into the war in ukraine, and the fighting is intensifying in the east. far from the front mines, the conflict impacting the global food supply, especially in africa, which imports 40 percent of its grain from russia and ukraine. the chair of the african union travelling to so cheat to help get deliveries back on track the ball little console. i spoke to the european council and i told them yes, there is a war the crisis, but there's also sanctioned lee. we should work together and resolving these 2 problems and make sure that everything concerning food and green supplies is outside the sanctions. all his meeting present putin ended with a promised ease, the export of grain from russian controlled ports of putin blame in the west for
1:06 pm
using moscow as a scapegoat, no option for you. of course, now we see an attempt to shift responsibility for the global fruit crisis to russia . this attempt, as our people like to say, is an attempt to shift from a sick head to a healthy one. food prices have shot up across africa since russia invaded ukraine with fears of famine and the un warning of mass migration. if food doesn't reach african shores. russia played hunger recently to put the blame on crane and others. ok ukraine. ah, so basically they are saying that the imminent hunger elsewhere will become soon because of the western sanctions on russia, not because of russia, a ford. but despite today's pledge, it remains unclear when those ports will be able to release the supplies africa and
1:07 pm
the world. so desperately needs join wolf algebra. robin sanders is the former us ambassador to nigeria, congo, and the economic community of west african states. she hopes a cold great plan will emerge from present patients meeting with the african unions mackey south. the real chance will be in action that that's taken on the ground. busy so if you had a comfortable conversation with him, where he got assurances that he would take into consideration on blocking the that was stuck at the port in odessa. maybe that's what makes him feel comfortable. but in the bottom line is whether or not that actually will be taken on the ground. the kind of gets about 44 and a week from, from russia over the last 4 or 5 years. i think there's a reality here and there, you know, it's called the really, the 3 s, it's security, it's fuel and it's fertilizer. those 3 things are in jeopardy. in addition to the humanitarian crisis is going on in ukraine and in russia. and so i think that from
1:08 pm
a sectoral perspective, a policy perspective on how you dress from security, i don't think us government is going to stand in the way of getting any kind of resolution on the security shortages out there. i do think that it's important to keep in mind and separate these things because they are different. they have different goals and objectives. and if we can unblock the food, that's the big plus for the world. not just, not just the african continent. russia supplies about 12 percent of the entire world, weak supply, so it would impact everybody if that is released. hundreds of afghan refugees have protested in islamabad, demanding the right to work in pakistan. they also want to be recognized as asylum seekers. most of the protesters are formed has our ethnic minority group, and has faced centuries of persecution come hider was out the purchased after the

1:10 pm
nor do they get any support from the government there. and now this is a desperate appeal to the international community. to take notice of these people. i come here to ask one question from indonesia. oh yes. what is different between us asia going in today? we wonder world community to treat us the same way as they did with ukrainians day we. we've been here for almost 2 months and under sunshine, under rain, under song, under bad weather with difficult situations. and we still haven't to help when needed. most of these people good on valid, reside, but did not get any help from getting denied soon. community. and now they are shouting slogans. hey, cause oh, killer youth. people have been living rough, very close to budget on capitalism bought red gone. and they warned,
1:11 pm
held from the united nations i commission for some of these people dory does that. they've been writing this. anthony made through the foreign country embassy at gwinnett, the united nation, but they have received nor hell. they said in google dis, situation for thousands of on web ranaldo funny. i know in limbo. joining us now is ahmed shooter, jamal. he's co author, the decline and full of republican afghanistan. thank. he says, joining the program. what is different between us and ukrainian children? i'm going to ask that question in a minute, but 1st give us some context here. who are the has are as, is there persecution on religious grounds? well, thank you. first of all, for offering coverage to this very important issue that is unfolding before eyes with respect to has are as from going to stone. and also has r as in park as stone,
1:12 pm
facing similar or comparable levels of persecution that has our as or one of the main ethnic groups in africa. stone that have a long history of persecution, primarily for their ethnic identity. but also more recently, primarily as one aspect of their persecution by isis for their faith upon a son being as soon the majority country. now those fears those historic years of persecution against the has our have actually been reading the live end and become more acute. because the taller bonds that have a long history of persecuting that has ours. there is a world documented history of the total of on conducting massacres against our civilians. in the 1991 their 1st and power. they've come back to power enough kind of and they have, the 1st thing they've done is to purge the has ours from both civilian administration, but also the military. and so therefore, the has are of no representation and the taliban regime, a regime that has been marginalized and persecuted them in the past. and therefore
1:13 pm
they cannot seek any form of protection from the regime and power against isis persecution that is attacking their schools. places of worship, but also their public transportation as they go from home to work into school. so, and there are indications that the taller bonner actually looking the other way as isis is continuing its campaign of persecution against the has are. it's going to tell us a bit more about what you mean by persecution, and has that persecution the or that treatment of has, are, has gotten worse over the years. what i mean by persecution is that there are mass casualty terrorist attacks on schools that are run and mostly attended by has ours in front of phone. similar mass casualty bomb attacks against our sports clubs. similar mass casualty terrorist bomb attacks against as
1:14 pm
ours own public transportation in their neighborhoods around the country has ours are often singled out in places where they work and shot after they've been singled out from among other africans. and so that level of identified persecution has raised the alarm, including by the holocaust memorial museum in washington, d. c. of a possible genocide in the, in the, in the offing in front of our eyes in front of sun against the has ours. so how many african refugees all the in pockets, dawn and elsewhere, and why they're struggling to get refugee status given what you're describing. there are over approximately 2000000 africa and is in pocket stones. some of them have been there for the past 2 to 4 decades. others like the ones that you saw in come all hiders report or more recent people including has ours and non has ours, who have been displaced for fear of the taliban regime coming to power. and there
1:15 pm
are multiple reasons for why they have not received basic immunities. one of them being that the resettlement countries, including australia, the u. s, canada, germany and, and other countries. the u. k, for example, need to have a concerted solution together with you and hcr and pakistan to resettle those africans. and those has ours, that qualify for resettlement, and to find solutions within pakistan, together with the parties on government and you and it's the are for those guns. and those has are, is that, that, that have to remain in pakistan. having said that, the pakistani economy is not the best shape it can be. and so there is those spheres, and part of the public system is being overwhelmed. and therefore, some countries like australia have pledged additional support to countries like pakistan and iran that are housing or hosting some of these displaced guns and has ours. but those efforts are piecemeal and need to be coordinated,
1:16 pm
including the resettlement of these has ours to because they qualify based on the well founded fear persecution that they face to 3rd countries. i'm not sure, judge m all co author, the decline and fall of republican afghanistan. thank you for your time. now supporters of pakistan's, former prime minister sharon cullen, had been protesting against rising fuel prices. hundreds demonstrated off to the government cut fuel subsidies for the 2nd time in a week. a finance minister says it's an attempt to control the country's debt. pakistan was told by the international monetary fund, it had to cut the subsidy to secure bailout funds. plenty more ahead on the news out including americans hold nationwide. rodriguez calling for tied to controls on gun ownership. investigators try to find out why a train derailed in southern germany all to his clubs. promotion in spain, brazilian football legend, rinaldo says he will stick to
