6:01 pm
this is al jazeera ah, hello, i'm sam is a dan. this is the news out, live from doha, coming off in the next 60 minutes, a show of solidarity european leaders are in care of to discuss, giving more military aid to ukraine. iraq's influential shall cleric mac puddle. sallow says he's stepping away from politics just months off. the national elections, police in brazil say they found the remains of an indigenous researcher. and british journalists who went missing 10 days ago and on the water volcanoes un team takes a dive in the mediterranean to research the risk of salamis. uninstalled, a warning from us open organizes as goals 3rd major. the season gets underway. players involved in a breakaway competition at so this could be the last time they get to take pulse.
6:02 pm
ah, are we stopped in ukraine where visiting european leaders are expressing their support for the nation to join the e u. the leaders of france, germany, italy, and romania math president followed the mid zalinski in a show of solidarity. earlier manual micron off schultz and mario daggett towards it in where russian soldiers have been accused of committing abuses. the french president said he saw evidence of war crimes in the town, visio insurance. if you are here at earth on a site that has been destroyed. indeed, the russian army stopped and several other cities nearby. massacres has been perpetrated, and we have had the 1st traces of what our war crimes on this investigation who are cooperating very strongly. i would like to think all the french john dumps experts
6:03 pm
and magistrates who have been working on this from the 1st day alongside the experts in char stratford is live for us in care of. let's start with military aid . one of the leaders saying, in that regard, charles well mixed messages if you look at and compare exactly what was said by, by the leaders and most notably, france and germany, the french president, emanuel micron saying that french support military support would continue at the kind of pace that term we've seen so far and implying that that would be increased as well. manual macro very came to point out that france has been one of the biggest contributions to what we understand is at least 2000000000 euros worth of european military aid. so far, we know that the ukrainians have been very thankful for
6:04 pm
a number of what i described, what are known as caesar, m artillery pieces. these are large an artillery canons that are approving very effective along those front lines. micron saying that sir, or at least implying that there would be more of those available, but a very different message from the german chancellor schultz. he has been under a lot of pressure internationally amongst his nato partners and most especially, especially a european eastern european states and ukraine, basically to do more to send more weapons has been accused of dragging his feet in very tellingly there was no mention of any tanks being sent, am all other military vehicles that have been certainly amongst analysts and some german officials had been scheduled to be put in front of schultz for being greenlighted to be sent to eastern europe for the
6:05 pm
eastern european countries. then to take those weapons. and then for those countries to send ukraine, soviet built weapons that the germans say ukrainians will not need as much training on shoals said that they would be an anti aircraft tanks that would be sent, but nothing more than that. and certainly there was a sense at that press conference that germany still dragging its feet over weapons or the italian prime minister groggy, saying that. so again, military support would continue very much in line with the, with what the you have already sent and building on that. but i think as a say, it was most notable, noticeable how quiet the german chancellor was on increasing germany's weapon support to ukraine, and that despite repeated please from the zalinski government here ukraine, also one support when it comes to me. you membership, are they getting any new commitments in that regard?
6:06 pm
yeah, again, i am very telling leave from emanuel macro, the french president, a president that has been criticized by some e. u. leaders for again, foot dragging an on whether ukraine should get its candidacy status for e u membership. and it was a lot more definitive from the french leader on this. he said that france fully supported. oh, hotly supported the candidacy status. but he said that this was the beginning of the process, again, drawing attention to the fact that any kind of a you membership ukraine could take a number of years. and he said, has a similar scenario from all dover. also one of the 3 countries that after you claimed was invaded by russia full 5 days afterwards applied for emergency e u membership. and it was very interesting. again, what the german chancellor schultz said on this issue. germany also accused of
6:07 pm
being not as vocal as other european leaders are on trying to push through a european membership for ukraine. schultz said that we support the unified unilateral decision of candidacy, candidacy status, but conditions i have to comply with what the european note, what the european union knows. he did not actually wholeheartedly say verbatim. we support ukraine's candidacy status. now, this is going to be discussed in the coming days, a year appear in summit, on the 24th 23rd 24th of june. so yet again, slightly more ambiguous statements made by the german chancellor on e e. u status of ukraine. and there is the issue, of course, of all that weight stuck in ukraine sports and they coming up with any magic
6:08 pm
solution for that one is no magic solution, but certainly the rhetoric is unified on this m emanuel macro on the french president saying that blaming russia wholeheartedly for this blockade, we know that president putin has turned around after being accused of, of a blocking what a now tens of millions of tons of grain in those ports and silos around ukraine. and the french president saying that this was all because of russian aggression. he had nothing to do with sanctions. russia blaming the international community for what the u. n says is a potential global food crisis on those sanctions because of course russia is a, is a huge grain exports are also and we heard from schultz b, the german chancellor on this as well. him whole hotly supporting any kind of initiative to try and ease that blockade. saying that sir,
6:09 pm
germany as in france as did as the macro on say that they would be fully behind any initiative to try and get some sort of access across the black sea. and very interesting as well the, the remaining president who was also and that, that, that press conference. he saying that sir romania was opening up many more border crossings with ukraine to try and transport is grain. this produce across into romania. he said that they were additional efforts being made as well to increase the capacity of boats using the river danube through rumania to get it to rumanian ports. and he said quite worryingly actually that so so far in recent weeks, romania has only managed to export around a 1000000 tons. as i say, it's already understood that this around 35000000 tons of grain in silos, imports, and ukraine. that is expected to got to around 75000000 tons in the coming weeks
6:10 pm
because we're about to see the harvest over the winter wheat. but sir, as i say, certainly there seem to be a unified response, big unified response in terms of at least a tackling this a blockade off of ukrainian nerve agricultural products. but as a say, there was it, there was, there were mixed messages with respect to weapons. and eventual e. u membership from the french and the germans are good stuff. they're from char stratford. in keith, on wednesday, the white house announced an additional $1000000000.00 in military aid for ukraine . it includes anti ship rocket systems, artillery and ammunition. there's also 225000000 in humanitarian aid. as get more now from our white house correspondent, kimberly halgert. so kimberly been following this, the funding will be a huge relief for ukraine and, and push perhaps europe to do something more quicker. yeah,
6:11 pm
there's no question that there was a not so subtle message from the defense secretary lloyd austin as he spoke. i, in this to day meeting of defense ministers meeting and brussels for nato. what he's essentially saying is you need to step up your contributions. here's what we're doing, we're leading, but you need to do more. this is the biggest package that the united states is put forward so far. 1000000000 as you point out. but so far, the united states is put forward some 5600000000 this latest package you outlined it had miss. i'll lodgers howitzers, anti ship systems of but i, in terms of what comes next to, you know, there is a need for this alliance to see that all members are contributing. and that's the big question mark when asked to. but the secretary general really was very vague.
6:12 pm
about what the other members were contributing only saying that the members were prepared to continue to provide substantial and unprecedented support. but what that looks like there still seems to be some heal dragging. and this is the indirect response to a plea by the ukranian leader of vladimir zalinski saying that he needs and in order to turn the tie the of this, this conflict, this russian invasion to his country, defending the sovereignty of ukraine. that there is a need for this weaponry. so what we know is that the united states is put for this package. it is specific in order to try and deal with the russian numbers. right now we know that ukrainian military is out numbered in terms of the russian military and it's munitions. and so this is a package that is designed to really target that. all right, thanks so much. kimberly. how could there plenty more still ahead on the news out,
6:13 pm
including the theory and refugees who are among the 13000000 people forced to leave their homes during the war. a general strike continues. thousands have been protesting against the president's economic policy. and it will find out which team is secured, the advantage in hockey stanley cup final ah, now through iraq where influential shia cleric most of southern has made statements about his political future. he says he will not be involved in the next election if the politicians is accused of being corrupt. take part. the leader of the largest block in parliament made the statements in a closed meeting just stays out. the 73 members of his party resigned as m p. 's. this means iraq faces more political uncertainty after an a month deadlock and
6:14 pm
failure to form a government. and i decided to withdraw from the political process to avoid associating with those corrupt politicians in any way, neither in this world nor in the hereafter, as well, like you as well, like you, you really did well in obeyed. so i thank you. what i want to tell you is that in the next stage, i will not participate in the coming elections. also with corrupt politicians, if they participate. this is a pledge between me and god. more than the law had report now from bank that after 8 months of a political, a stalemate in iraq and following the resignation of 73 parliament members knocked at the souther. who's a political block has the majority of seats in the parliament, which recently resigned and now said that he is not intending to share any future government, or even any elections with his rival political parties. he means the iranian backed
6:15 pm
political parties, if he continues as such, then his rivals would move on with forming a government. but it would most probably be a fragile government in this case, not to the southern. and his supporters would take their position site, his supporters, he would take to the streets and try to oust that government. and the country would most probably be brought to square, one, like in 2019 when protested took to the streets in a nation wide mass protest, which should revolted against corruption and mismanage. now, to dana iraq, people in streets are very angry. they're very disappointed at the current politicians. they say they have been waiting for long for a new government to make a change in their lives. to noisiest main labor union is on strike to demand an
6:16 pm
increase in salaries and concessions on looming reforms that the $3000000.00 people are part of the powerful tune. as in general labor union, thousands of its members held the rally in the capital tunis. it's the latest crisis putting pressure on the government of president cars. sy, it release evolvement isn't tunis with more thousands have gathered in tunis in support to the general labor union, the u. g t t. it's read that they come out with a general strike which started at midnight. and this includes all the public sectors. we've had a 96 percent turn out, and that includes the whole of the transport section. so it has been no international flights. the ports are closed buses, major, the organizations like the national administration. i've not gone in to work that includes the national power and the water company. so pretty much the whole of
6:17 pm
tenicia is on strike. an to booby nerdy to booby its liter gave a rousing speech, saying that the u g t t is supporting their members who is very careful not to set himself up as some kind of opposition or political force. however, the u. g t t is at loggerheads with the government that it says isn't supporting its workers . the government has been trying to get a major consolidation loan from the international monetary funds. but them international monetary funds are demanding major reforms in the country, and that includes austerity reforms such as cutting the national salary to booby said that he's not actually demanding so much for wage raise. and salaries and wages have been stagnating for the past 23 years is particularly with the crisis induced by cov, it, that pretty much shut down the economy as he's demanding the government actually
6:18 pm
sought out the economy itself. because we're seeing fuel prices, food prices going up and inflation growing. so this has been an a major turn of events. but what we're we expect to see is possibly more strikes as the union and government continue to disagree about the best way forward. police and brazil think they've identified the bodies of an indigenous researcher. and british journalist who disappeared 10 days ago investigate to say, a suspect in police custody, confessed to killing bruno herrera and don phillips and burying them deep in the amazon rain forest. on again, a key of reports now from rio de janeiro. it took brazil's police 10 days to find a place where indigenous experts, but on a bit ita and british journalist don phillips were allegedly buried. policeman said, a mighty la costa,
6:19 pm
a local fishermen confessed to the killing and led them to the burials site more than 3 kilometers into the amazon jungle. go though this is where the crime happened. when you found the bodies betted human remains found there will be compared to dna samples obtained from the families of biddy at on phillips, the journalist's wife of his son, that of some buying has issued a statement saying that the family can now find closure. but she also says this should be the 1st step of a broader investigation into crimes committed in the amazon video. and phillips were allegedly ambushed on their way back from the job id, valley, and area twice the size of japan and home to the world's largest number of un contacted indigenous tribes when they went missing on june, the 5th local communities organized search parties and asked the government for
6:20 pm
help them of draw hoodie you, she worked with bruno video for 11 years, told us they had both been threatened for trying to some top illegal fishing and the reservation some months ago we followed by the about on the same path. he took dumb phillips, part of research for a book was writing about conservation. in the amazon the indigenous expert was helping java, the tribes track down trespassers and stopped them from stealing fish on the river . we met a mighty old will that cost them. one of the 2 men were ordering to the police, kill bit era, and phillips, the case stirred up the international community. brazil's president abel seattle, was asked about the investigations during his meeting with joe biden. and british prime minister concourse johnson said that the search for phillips should be a priority. community leader, paloma doable, says investigations must continue,
6:21 pm
because he believes there's much more to these 2. deb illegal fishing has been associated with drug trafficking in this part of the amazon which borders peru in columbia. the indigenous people of the job id valley say it's time for the brazilian government to take the threats. they've been facing for decades. more seriously. monica and i have all jazeera rio de janeiro now, the killing of bruno herrera and don phillips has drawn global attention, but it's only the latest in a string of fatal attacks against environmental and indigenous activists in brazil, according to figures from the rights group, global witness more than 300 have been murdered since 2012 and only a handful of those responsible ever been convicted. recent victims include tribal chief amira, why pay? he was stabbed to death in 2019 when gold minors invaded indigenous reserve. and
6:22 pm
critics have accused president job wilson out of increasing the threat to activists by pushing for more development in the amazon when joining us now from shrewsbury england, this su branford. she's a freelance journalist covering latin america with a focus on brazil. good to have you with us. so 1st of all, has anything come to light about the motive for why these 2 were killed? will it seems that the person that and phillips was struggling with brewing barrera was trying to stop the edge of a big spread to be illegal, cut cartels in the region. there's a cartel that is encouraging the local peasants to fish for them and it brings them a very welcome source of income. and a barrier was, is trying to see what was trying to set up
6:23 pm
a legal project to peer an alternative to the one that is and that the drug, cartels, and fishing cartels are providing and it had created tensions. so the police believe it was this tension and that caused them to be killed just 5 days ago. what do we know about the suspect who police have arrested and has reportedly confessed to the killing? yes, well he, he undoubtedly will be prosecuted in property sentenced to a long jail term. but as so often happens in the amazon, he's not the real person behind it. the people who run the cartel, trying to encourage the local population to fisher legally in the nearby indigenous reserve or will not be brought to account. it will just be the small fry once again, who is held responsible. who are these people behind the scenes running the cartel?
6:24 pm
well, see, share value and river valley is the most violent area in brazil, i'm not saying a lot. and there are numerous cartels trying to move in to enter indigenous land. there's a huge indigenous reserve there, which of course entries, bards, to everybody, but the engines. so there's cartels, a drug drug trafficking, there's cartel search. you're trying to get their hands on the, in men's fish well. and there are cartels that you're trying to mine. cartels are to and that a longing, all these people of vi am to move into the area illegally. and of course, the government should be taking measures. but that whole exactly what i wanted to ask you though, when you look at the initial statements from jane wilson are the present himself. it was quite critical of phillips wasn't a what, what exactly is the government's actual role here?
6:25 pm
they can't be unaware of all of these cartels operating in the amazon. well, no. and that also narrow has said on various occasions he thinks bristles indigenous . chrome controlled far too much land and he wants to take land away from them. so i don't think we'll get much energetic measures to try to control the power of the car salesman because i was thinking in the past when somebody famous dies and there's a for rory of abroad. then sometimes measures are taken. i'm thinking back to the death of she commanders who died in 1988 in the, in further to the west in the amazon. and he was a robert harper. he was mobilized to the communities or to defend their lands, which was being invaded by cutter eris on his death caused such
6:26 pm
a rory that in fact the government created what they called or reserves extract reserves. these areas which wrapped up by the top is, themselves could control and it was an important advance at the time. and then in 2005, the american missionary dorothy, stung, was killed by air cutter areas. and that also caused a ferrari. and there was an important measure taken, the government took over large areas of land and kind of crisis kind of caught on sunny tear to start landing vase that they did. so why is happening now? is it that they're seeing an interest in having these cartels squeeze indigenous people sort of the gums kind of look in the other way or are you suggesting with some level of collusion between these cartels and official them and yet i'm not sure this actual collusion. but i think it serves the interest of the bolton
6:27 pm
on a government who wants to reduce the amount of land in a dish reserves. and once quite a lot of it is occupied, particularly is the forest. it's felt then it becomes much easier for them to authorize a take over parts this land to mining companies and cattle ranches. and also now it has never show any interest a tall in defending the rights of indigenous people. and so i don't think we will see affective action from him, though we will have somebody or prosecuted improperly jailed her for the crime. but this won't stop what is going on or not so great talking to you. thanks for your insight on this one. the still ahead on al jazeera, 8000000 australians urge to turn off the lights. my energy crisis is forcing regulators take unprecedented stance.

6:33 pm
filippo gandhi's the united nations high commissioner for refugees is as the global displacement crisis is only going to get worse. new conflict, sir, emerge. old conflicts are not resolved. and because the causes that push people to flee are becoming more and more complex, are violence, prosecution, human rights violations, but also to an extent, climates, extreme climate phenomena, and the climate change inequalities. even the pandemic, everything conspires to make the situation very difficult for people in certain countries, and their only option is to flee. and there, this is why we've seen this figure grow year after year and reach now more than
6:34 pm
a 100000000 people. the still almost 6000000 syrian refugees in the middle east. i've just come back from bangladesh. we're in a tiny and very fragile area of the country. 1000000 refugees from member of the ro hinge a community have been living for the past few years and the list is very, very long. so the size, the complexity, the difficulty of finding solutions, all of this illustrates the, the, the nature of the problem we're dealing with. syria is suffering from the world's largest displacement crisis. more than 30000000 people have either fled the country or have been displaced within its borders since the war began 11 years ago. as ana hodder reports most live in poverty and without any guarantee of security. hunted up dollar is a victim of serious war. more than 13000000 people, that's half the population before the war are in a similar situation. either forced to flee the country or are displaced within its
6:35 pm
borders, and i'm re sundays and it probably more. i am 70 years old. i preferred to die than live in poverty in misery and without my children who are now scattered everywhere for most life in exile is becoming more permanent. and the opposition controlled north. hundreds of thousands of syrians are being moved out of tense into concrete housing units. it's some relief from the cold winter's and hot summer's, but it's not home. opponents of the government, civilians and fighters, men, women, and children were forced to move in government troops gradually recapture territory over the years of fighting. and up, none is sovereigns or it's not easy leaving home, it's painful. there is a lot of pain. we hope to return one day and live under a new system of government. 11 years on the front lines still divide the country
6:36 pm
and the regime and the opposition are far from a political solution. a new generation has only known war and life in camps for many of the displaced. returning to president bashar assad, syria is not an option in the absence of safety guarantees, political reform and justice enhanced me probably. 5 years ago we left our homes are livelihood now. my husband was killed in order through us here and there is nothing for us. but time has done little to erase memories of a violent conflict, which is now in a stalemate. but when i'm going to be forced from our homes after heavy bombardment, they destroyed street by streets. they dropped barrel bombs and killed so many people who besieged in hungry. serious displacement crisis has been described as this century's largest human exodus. many have been forced to find safety many times over, but their troubles are being compounded by collapsing economy. it's
