9:02 pm
a plate in the saudi arabia back series. ah, dozens of refugees and migrants have set off from southern mexico, heading north into the u. s. most of them are coming from venezuela. cuba, haiti, and guatemala act of i said the group could be one of the regions, largest migrant caravans in recent years. at least 6000 people left the border city of tougher shuler on monday. the time their departure to coincide with the summit of the americas this week. and a monopolist following the caravan is joining us live now from quite fly in that mexico at just talk us through what you're seeing. cuz we can see crowds and crowds of people sitting downs, milling around behind you. this is without a doubt, one of the largest migrant caravans that we've seen, at least so far this year. this caravan is now on its 2nd day. it's set out at
9:03 pm
around 3 am local time on tuesday, here in southern mexico, where we are right now is the town of weeks la, which is a little over 50 kilometers north of the of mexico's border. with guatemala, what you see behind me, i'm gonna step out of the frame for just one second. hopefully you can get a sense of what we're looking at here. this is a public gymnasium that seems to have been re purpose to house. as many of these migrants as possible, the vast majority of them are from venezuela. again, they've been walking since 3 am this morning. it's now close to one p. m local time, which means that that, that mid day sun here in southern mexico is really started to be down on every one of we've seen quite a few people with just absolute exhaustion on their faces. many, many women with children of many families with what young children, travel with the, with this care events. you can imagine,
9:04 pm
just sort of the desperation, the, that the stories that we've heard are, are, are absolutely depressing. we've seen many people who have grown frustrated sort of desperate with the pace at which the care of and has been going, which is a very slow pace so that the families with young children are able to keep up with people who grow desperate and sort of just a piled up on the back of passing trucks. we know about least one gentleman who fell. we spoke to him. he was a. he was badly injured and on the side of the road to sort of waiting for us for for assistance, waiting for paramedics to arrive. luckily there are paramedics sort of going up and down the highway following the migrants. for now, given that there is still more rain forecast, given that that mid day heat is really starting to set in, we get the sense that week slot will be a final stopped for now. which if, if it's any indication what we saw yesterday means at once that sunsets and people of, of had the little bit of something to eat, maybe had their rest shortly after midnight is when we expect this migrant care
9:05 pm
event to once again take to the road with that and go being the u. s. southern border. if i and i started this, this caravans set off at a time when the regional leaders are meeting for the, the job, the annual summit of the americas in los angeles. when you've covered these events before with people from different countries and they've had it towards the us border, sometimes they've been met with a violent reaction. what's the mood amongst the people that are traveling to day? there is certainly a political aspect to this. my good care of and it does coincide with the start of the america some and taking place in the city of los angeles. in the united states . we have not seen the same sort of treatment to this care of and that we've seen some of the previous ones, namely the caravan of haitian migrants that we saw also in the thousands last year there was a bottleneck effect, for many of them had piled up here in southern mexico,
9:06 pm
they were quite badly treated by immigration authorities. we've also, bye bye, i can't imagine anyone hasn't seen the images of the way that that same haitian migrant care of and was treated on the, on mexico border with the united states. i recall those images of us immigration authorities on horseback using width and using slurs against against patient migrant. until now we have not seen that we've seen right police. we've seen immigration authorities sort of keeping the peace keeping an orderly flow. but we haven't seen anything to indicate that this caravan is being stopped or being prevented from continuing to move north again. somewhere between 5 and 6000 people is what we're estimating. the vast majority of them are been as well. and every one of them saying that they're wanting to reach the united states. mike roberts reporting for us from in mexico. manuel, thank you very much indeed. present police have opened a criminal investigation into the disappearance of an indigenous expert and
9:07 pm
a british journalist missing. and the amazon bruno put into a brazilian specialists, an isolated tribes was with don phillips. it was in a reporting trip there they were in a part of the rain forest. when indigenous groups are under threat from illegal miners, loggers and to cane producers, activist said the men received threats while i'm in the field last week. now the report sisters pleading for this safe return. we're really worried about him and urged use warranties in brazil. do all a cath search the roots he is following. if anyone can help scalar resources available for the search, that would be great. because time is crucial. near in the u. k. my other brother and i are desperately worried. we love our brother and want him and his brazilian guide. bruno pereira found every minute counts. one again, archives live for us in warner service, monica just bring us up to date with the latest on this. first of all.
9:08 pm
well on the navy is involved looking for for them the policeman mountain. but you must realize this is a very huge area. it's very remote, it's on the border of columbia and peru. there are many, there's a 3 rivers, at least main rivers and very small rivers. on the sideways now they disappeared in an area where they should not have disappeared. i mean that's, that's when they were like on their way back, the final 2 hours of this trip, which we were in a very, we did the exact same trip just a couple of months ago. and i also taken by bruno bid ada. he's a, he's one of the people that best know the region. he's been working with isolated tribes for a very long time. he used to work for the government agency for ny that takes care
9:09 pm
of these isolated tribes. he stopped working with them also because of the change of government. so what he was organizing was he was teaching these indigenous people to track down illegal legal fishermen and poachers ah, using ah, applications on, on a cell phones, satellite images. and we went on this expedition with him, where he will, you would find clues on the way in the middle of a jungle. nowhere. you'd fight like a salt bag which showed that there were roots, there were opening and they were salting this fish, the fish that they're mainly are getting there. is that be it out of who now, but who is a very he's friends with all these tribal leaders from there shove id valley, he's like a personal friend. he knows all their customs. he lived among them for many, many years. he really knows the region well and he's been a heat when we were there. he was saying also he was being threatened already. and
9:10 pm
so. 1 but he knew the area very well. that's why people are worried because if dom phillips that the journalist was with little know bit if there's one person that knows that area. well, it's but on all video at our so our him not showing up for such a long time. is worrisome. monica, and thank you very much indeed, monica you, nikita, of bringing yourself to date from warner center. so i wanna bring in jonathan once he's the guardians. global environment editor is a friend of the missing british journalist. don phillips, who's joining us live from washington dc. very eager to have you. we're the sir on al jazeera monica was describing the are the expertise that bruno put ada has in this area. tell us if you will, about the background of don phillips. sure don't. phillips is a very experienced, very caring, very careful journalist, very close friend. i've known him for more than 10 years. when i 1st arrived in brazil, correspondent there. he already knew the language perfectly. he knew the ropes, he,
9:11 pm
he totally loved brazil. and he stayed there. he's been there ever since his wife is present and i know that at the moment he had taken a year off to write a book about the amazon rain forest. so he was researching that book when he went missing. but really, i've been a journalist for 25 years in countries across the world. and i would say that dumb is cop caliber really compassionate, really intelligent and very brave, but he didn't. he's not a reckless adventurer. he would have looked at the risk very carefully. he, as you've heard from monica, he went with one of the best guides there is out that he did every, he would have every precaution, but this is a very, very dangerous area. and there's every reason to be concerned, given the fact that you know the area very well as well. i'm clearly bruno had
9:12 pm
a tremendous amount of experience as monica has described clearly. so it has done, they knew the risks. does that mean that what has happened is actually even more shocking because it seems like a surprise that they would be in this situation given, given the depth of knowledge that both men have. i think that's another reason for . ready very grave concern. bruno knew this area inside and out better than anyone, apart from the indigenous people who live that it is on the remotest area. but it is one of the most dangerous areas of brazil. it's kind of troubled borderline between the indigenous area and the, and the nearby city and it's an area the illegal loggers illegal fishermen illegal. mine is have, have occupied and it's known for being
9:13 pm
a really trigger happy place of crime. the police, very wary of operating in their turn, this needs to go in there with a little precautions and they would have taken the brew, they would have taken them. and the fact that even so they went missing is very wiring because it's not the case as, as in other places where you might think, oh, hang on. that's an interesting little side river. i'll just go and explore that for a day. no note in this area you would set out in a very clear schedule. way you're going to be you would have people that you would check him with to assure them that you are safe. you wouldn't divert. and if you had engine trouble, i think the search policies that already been 6 search parties, the i know would have found the boat. so yes it's, it's gravely concerning. let me ask you very briefly, sorry they, they, the former lecturing president of brazil has made a statement with regard to this. and the president both sonata has also made
9:14 pm
a statement about this has put forward something about this. this is clearly got up to the top level of government very, very quickly. how concerned would you be that this was the politics were getting involved in this? i'm concerned, i think it's also inevitable. this is an election year in brazil. between the fall right? julia. both the nato and the former left president, lula silver. and the visions of the world and relationship with john, this relationship with indigenous people, connections with the 4th, a totally different gyre. both have spent the last pretty much for years. we can go with the defenses of the forest to humiliating environmental groups,
9:15 pm
humiliating indigenous groups, and picking fights, foreign journalists, and that's very different from the view of lula. so you could see in their response to this disappearance, those politics of reemerge, luna, urged the brazilian authorities to step up the search by contrast, president both and put out a statement today saying, oh it was, it was an irresponsible adventure. and i've heard that country to many media reports i've heard from people on the ground that in fact this morning, not one police are not one soldier, not one naval officer was involved in the search. so it things, in fact, the brazilian government have the mobilized the search operation as a kind of a snob to the international pressure there under. so it's, it's horrifying that that dome and bruno a caught in this. and i hope that the appeals of donna's wife ali and doesn't
9:16 pm
assist this young and the families family members of bruno can cut through this and really connect with people on an emotional level. because if people are doing their job, they're not reckless adventurous. they are trying to find really important stories and share them with the world, and we should be admiring them. know, putting them down as directly. that's the last thing. don't phillips was jonathan, what we appreciate your time. so thank you very much indeed. thank you. the horn of africa is experiencing his words driving 40 years. the un says 14000000 people in somalia, kenya, and you see here at risk of starvation and somalia, about 800000 people left the countryside to seek help in camps. odyssey it is malcolm lab reports from the port city of chris lamb. they went to abilene high bully, have children died of hunger and thirst. he said he was left with no choice. he
9:17 pm
abandoned the only life he's ever known as magic heard. he says he was caught between the armed group ash bob and worsening drought. most of the goats and cows perished. he told us he left the last animals to die and walked with his surviving daughter for dosa, for 3 weeks to reach here. the camphor displaced people in the port city of kiss, my in somalia. my wife lost her mind with that was after we were unable to get food for our children. the last i heard she tried to walk to market issue, but then i don't have the strength to look for. i don't have shelter, i don't have anything to eat. i have nothing. after law he in far dosa have joined thousands of people already in this camp. many of them lost their animals in previous drowns and haven't been able to restock their heads. more than half of
9:18 pm
somalis depend on hurting livestock turn, dry scrub into mill can meet that people have survived on for thousands of years, but the drought to becoming more frequent and worse. so the camps in cities like his maya grow bigger. many of the people here may never go back, guessing harder and harder for people to survive in the countryside. this is another place to fish in the sea. there were many decades of the preventative field fishing, like many other parts of the world we haven't seen have de la. he knew her mood says he would never have dreamed of eating fish when he was a harder than his sheep and goats were wiped out in a drought 5 years ago. he says he then struggled to survive in a camp and kiss my until the un food and agriculture organization bought him a boat and trained him to fish. there's a big difference. as a lifestyle keeper,
9:19 pm
life is always about struggling with drought and trying to recover from it deficient the ocean. you have to learn many things. what the ocean itself is like a university. you need to study out work after law. he spent years learning and says he can now get a good catch 5 days a week. his money he earns is enough to pay school fees for his children. the u. n said many more people could be helped in the same way that the crisis is also be coming out of by my vision crisis. and, but it requires a more solution by supporting officially, which has a huge partition where they can diversify and improve their perspective new nutrition. it's not clear how the millions of somalis in the countryside will survive in a warmer world. war won't eat what may be simone is 3000 kilometer coastline and it's fish can help. malcolm web al jazeera kiss,
9:20 pm
my somalia james fawn is the you and the secretary general's special representative is somali and he says, millions of people can still be saved from starvation. if donors scale up their response, now, the drone situation is extremely dire. it is possibly the worst drought experienced in somalia in some for decades. out of somali as total population of about $15000000.00 people, approximately half are affected by humanitarian need. and more than $6000000.00 people are expected to be food insecure by the end of the year. unless we see a rapid scale up of life saving humanitarian assistance. other areas in the horn of africa are also affected, but somalia is the worst hit in view of it's already fragile food security conditions. and of course, many years of conflict and political uncertainty. humanitarian organizations have
9:21 pm
many ways of supporting people in need in somalia. these include commodity distribution, they include voucher and cash transfer systems, many other mechanisms to support water and sanitation needs. a therapeutic and supplemental feeding health services and the like. all those can be readily delivered and they are already being delivered to some 2800000 people in somalia. but the needs are great. the overall requirements in the humanitarian response plan for somalia is approximately $1450000000.00. but here we are almost halfway through the year, and only about 18 percent of that requirement has been contributed by the donor community. we are grateful for the generosity but much more is needed and needed
9:22 pm
quickly to invert to avert worsening conditions in the coming months. it is important that even in the midst of other global priorities, the needs of the people affected in these countries in the horn are not forgotten. the donor community has consistently been generous over many, many years. and there have been new assurances of support. but what's urgently needed is that those assurances be translated into contributions and that those contributions come quickly the drought impact will be felt further very soon. and what's important is not just the total amount of the donor contribution, but how early it can come to support people in need. russian and ukrainian forces are waging a fierce battle for control and the eastern don't boss region that are reports of
9:23 pm
st by st. battles in the city of severe said, get out and yet can the town of lucy chanced moscow says it seems to residential, it is in 7th of yet. and yet 2nd, it's now pushing into nearby industrial zones. but a cranium. officials say their troops are holding their positions that the only 2 places in the hon, screech and holding out against the russian assault moscow's control pos, not by 30 kilometers to the south for several weeks now. pushing outward, trying to take more areas around it. it rings president vladimir zalinski says russia may have the numbers, but his side has every chance of fighting back. rushes reportedly deployed extra troops in the region. he's forces are using battle tanks to carry out quick hitting rung attacks as part of their counted offensive. well, joining us now from dumbass region is ukrainian m. p sketches love, yosh. go to have you with us on all. does it tell us what it is like there being saved hell enough to b, l a. t of the fighting, the russian on most of the dancing in the infantry, the 2nd tillery day, and
9:24 pm
a great deal of shells. and every time they tried to defend land for the big ripples, we are holding a strong by. we need the world sport in this fight that which the killing people in the thousands and the reality of the 1000000 refugees fleeing from the crating is just the li, just evidence of the hail brushes causing honesty, crane. but the, well, the ultimate that his boss is hell and the world just needs to pay attention. tell me what the conditions are like for people who is still in the region. when i was traveling to water and villages that you have an artillery shells pulling. busy around you basically have the explosions happening through the day through the night and local stuff. you basically, you never know when the show will hit your house and when you will die destiny on which they are living. that's why my job is going to the front line, giving the basic needs that they have. there's no router,
9:25 pm
no shops work. there's nothing, nothing. and the reality is that that's the result. the russian war making here in ukraine has been called left. a. d is fighting, and now it's only intensifying the helena that's happening in the region, low travel tomorrow. the other 2 that is just described again. that's russia today . the impression that we've been getting is that the russians have changed their tactics very slightly and appeared to be trying to avoid moving into the cities themselves in a row lying. an artillery. can you give us some sort of description of what your experience has been of how the russians are carrying out this? well, reality is that they are willing to city impact exclaim, which they are basically treating cities before trying to find a clear. the idea would that approach from both civilians and everybody in those that what they get is bad. hold just one thing bad. defending our country are using
9:26 pm
the, the rubble and the destruct stuart cities as medicaid. so they can find our gosh, i mean time, i trouble those that he has the, there are 6 of the road which basically have shell every single day. and throughout the travels we had just on the road today. back from a mission and we had the russian selling house near by bro, which would travel and exactly fish distributed that made you have i don't know what mines or shells holding the by. that's just the reality of everyday work. and that's for changing the rushing los gatos moving in. so they're trying to obliterate the idea before we begin every time i try them and they get ripples. but he will keep trying because mister jim sacrificing his people. but delusions of grandeur, that she will never have tell me about the logistical problems that you face and other agencies as well face, about trying to get 8 into the regions that you're in at the moment. reality is that those from plan villages,
9:27 pm
from townside in dire need of everything but a 1000 people thing behind in their homes, in the hours of life. these places are unwilling to give that up because the russians and again, the hopeful that the fight will enter into one way. and basically that's what if the guys supplying them is the job and just a line. but of thousands of people who are traveling through the to be area would get most basic things because they are not strengthening a lot of water. they a lot of bread because people that don't have to. so the point is if it wasn't for people going to the area from trying to distribute something, they would die. and the, you know, just cross the shell but a need for everything, any 6. and again, that's payoff for fire to we know that you've got people that we just called them and supply them because well, fight for them. i want to ask you about that. i understand that you as well as delivering aid your i believe waiting for papers to be able to fight. tell me what impact this conflict has had on you personally and on your family. i joined
9:28 pm
mobile. i'm a mobilized so i was obliged on the 15th. so march in beginning of the conflict, basically the reality of fighting key points that i was doing the custodial defense units on keep seeing, seeing everything back to shoot out shelling and mind feel, imagine the reality gets off to what we basically we want because in key if we did them back in, so mean to me give and we have be let me hard, but they are trying to move into the for yes, i'm still waiting to be transferred to my unit here in the boss to join them in the fight that actually i had lost, i have lost a great deal. i have buried some of the people in my life friend because of the russian onslaught. and i am suddenly more eager to try and become better soldier
9:29 pm
on the big guys. i was just fighting with in the kia. are you scared about what the future might hold for you? all the yell at you when you are in this circumstance, you aren't thinking when you're thinking, what type of destiny of the nation is for or right now. and to leave this fight, him to flee somewhere is is something that generation is forgive. so that is something i will not do, but in no circumstance and to be irrelevant. be sometimes to try and do something to try to save some lives in a and the with the battle that we are trying to win. pushing the options away from our country is these the least honorable things we think we can do right down. because again, we cannot leave this country, we stay, we are fighting. how confident can you be in international military and, and aid that is coming to help ukraine?
9:30 pm
there is, there has been a great, a support so far. are you concerned that that supports might dwindle away and the world might lose interest? lots of my colleagues, i work in national angle and trying to talk with different partners. you crate hands on the world to try and continue and strength that support not to mention our president, not to mention arm is more than the plaza been disconnected from ukraine. we're ready eager to show the well. this is a battle that ukraine can win, and it should have went by the russians violating every single moment unity hitting ukraine. and that is why this is not just for the ukraine, but the, for the simple fact that the world has. but idea with national law, which is broken by russian so many different countries and so many different lives on the world. so yes, we are ready, close ballpark, as we already have proposed, we're getting but again, everything is needed, nothing is enough and all is welcome status. love your rush,

9:32 pm
busy i'll be sorry, hold progress to the snow because why it's not about faces. now i want to move it to the cell. so that's how i go the processing. now, before this day, there have been so many things are negotiating for spreading and all that not to talk about that. now the countries most probably didn't talk to us about why this convention is important. and what transpired that's resulted in today's convention and what are we looking at like what this is important because it's, it's fun banks don't troll open right hop. i think i'm candidates for 2023 dinner election. i'm up was the, the biggest room in the country right now, and by known that got to be put back to nothing. so what do you have the right

9:34 pm
right on the phone to walk with them with you. all right? no big deal for you to go either on your board that need to be kind of now looking at the degree of position, what do you think this conversion for someone who can better you by default is our company is there is dipping our next do we leave, what would be bad? oh, not a big i we know that you know what was going on. right. and i got like, we are all together. that's why they need to read on them. i don't want, you know, we'll do it on a book. we'll come together, i get back to you basically right on the board, right. what it was. all right, everything that you were paula. right. and we'll do. we'll

go round all the whole funding. that's. i'm saying people have to be, you know, being funded, not for me to do it because we have the quality in all of our thank you very much. it's just, it's always been stressed by election start very shortly. and probably by the time it's stage one g or entity, we expect to know who will be spending, what bear with the other candidate. although i don't with rob of any this interviews or i'm at. thank you very much indeed. ok. joining us now from london is political analyst at vale akin, told me that sir. thank you very much. indeed for being with us are, what are the chances, do you think of the party being able to get a consensus candidate to put forward? well, it is been rather difficult considering that they are 23 asper answer from the governing
9:36 pm
party, and they represent all the regions of the country ah, with diverse interests and diverse political background. so getting a consensus has been a challenger, the president has tried to nudge the members of the ruling party in to our coalescing around one particular individual that the party would put forward with our has proven to be a tough is proven to be quite difficult because the various interests are dug in and of very few of them are willing to yield any position at all. so going into the convention, i would say we started out with $23.00. are credible aspirants. we're probably now down to a handful, but that elusive a single consensus candidate continues to remain elusive as we go into the voting to like, how much info as do you think president muhammad, who bahati will have behind the scenes in any future?
9:37 pm
governments went well and the, the way the country stroke jobs past presidents always generally wield a lot of influence. if you look at those who are governed in the past for president good luck to pres late person yara, to president obasanjo, even after they left office, they continued to have a say, as elder statesman, and i've always a length be a wealth of experience and wisdom to governance issues, they've never really stayed away from politics even though they're not active in office. they don't always continue to play the role of elder statesman. and they experience has been brought to be a in a lot of local, regional and international affairs. despite of or in debris ever ends up by being the head of the party or ends up being that the candidate
9:38 pm
only eventually running the country. the problems of nigeria remained dante to remain with her security gum and killed worshippers in the southwestern states of onto just to just recently the economy is an issue that are social issues. and so is there any way that has not yet been tried? where these problems could be dealt with, or is whoever eventually becomes leader of the, of the country. going to simply face the same problems as his predecessors have. well, let's recognize the fact that in the last 7 years of the current administration of the world, the global community has been hit by 2 or 3 extraordinary shocks from the 2016 global recession. so the call was locked down to the recent war and ukraine by russia and these crises have had the same mind, patasha and impartial nigeria as they have the rest of the world. so without a doubt, the country is at a crossroads where it's tracy quite
9:39 pm
a lot of challenges. i would say that the, the previous governments are the current administration have done their level best . but all the parents who are indirect today, people who are global, prospective customer politics, world views, and who are, did you tell age type personalities in the past will now be run by some analog leaders. but i would say the good couple of people who are running to office today, particularly the vice president, they are young, are coming forward thinking, you know, logically astute. people who are creative and innovative are surrounded by technocrats, who can spell shawn, new ideas, a new solutions to address the challenges the countries facing daily. i can be thank you very much to forgive me, sir. i am terribly sorry for interrupting you. i'm afraid. time is against us, but we appreciate you being with us and i'll just, you know, thank you very much indeed. thank you for having me. it's been
