step down. they blamed was a boy raj, a pasta for an economic crisis. this made life bearable for many of the countries 22000000 people. oh, after breaking barricades, get another unprecedented moment, demonstrator stormed into the president's official residence in columbia. been slide, this is what it looks like. the president was moved by his security team to an undisclosed location earlier while protestors ransacked his bedroom and took photographs on his bed. with within moments the presidential pool, once reserved for the country's top, leaders appeared more like a community pool. ah, today's the independence day for me. been born in this nation, not mine in 48,

because to day the have fought far freedom from the tyranny from the scoundrels, from the black gods, from the rosco good robes and the greedy politicians web, run our nation. below ground 0 the 730 president was elected in 2019. analysts say it's only a matter of time before he's forced to step down. as shooters, the presidents res admission is about. the prime minister becomes the acting president according to the constitution. and that is for a period of 30 judge within which parliament must decide who amongst such members will be elected to serve the remainder. oglethorpe, garage boxes, anger is rising at the government's handling of a dire economic crisis. the worse in 70 years,

the monthly minimum wage is about $80.00 and access to food. fuel and medicine is limited and the government has run out of foreign currency. budget parks, us political allies know this is a crucial moment for his presidency. they want not only the president to go, they want the prime minister, but they want the government to go. it is very ironic. you know, that is the government that jammed the power on the basis on nationalism. on the basis of the ethnic majority. doza, they have been pushed out now. wow. smaller demonstrations hills earlier this year had little impact. now the frustration appears to have turned into a movement. the can no longer be ignored. katya low facility an al jazeera him and elvin and as reports from colombo present goat albert roger pox. and his government had been put on notice that if he didn't go that the hall of sri lanka

would take to the streets that would come and basically sit in until they saw his exit. as you can see behind me the crowd. i mean, essentially, in the far this sense the presidential secretariat but tens of thousands of people are still streaming in to colombo in any way they can. on our drive. here we saw dozens of people on foot with backpacks living around colombo, even people who had been walking from out of colombo. we're also hearing that trains which had been our sort of halted our people, storm rear stations and literally forced ruby employees to put trains on the tracks and bring them into colombo and the one thing they see that they are taking that country back. today's independence day for me. been born in this nation, not mine in 48. because today, we have fought far freedom from the tyranny from the scoundrels,

from the black gods, from the rascal, the robes, and the li, the politicians who have to run our nation below ground 0. and this is exactly what the government tried so hard to prevent. the thousands of people converging on the capital to urge the president and his government to go. they brought in a curfew, they had to remove it the next day. they essentially wanted the distribution of fuel. what have a little stocks were available, were frozen. i essentially transport public transport was stopped, but people were not giving up. and if you look at the far back around the sherlock and flag flying high, the roger boxer regime, the government of guitar bear, roger fox, and his brother, brother, president, my and the roger proctor was so sort of keen and strong to talk about nationalism. but the people here say, this is the true spirit of reluctance,

and they want their country back. and l fernandez joins us live now on the foreign hello them and l. so the prime minister says he's willing to stand down. what else came out of that meeting as party later? so, so my hear that it was quite a lot of animated discussion. one of the things that had been discussed was the go the go go talk campaign and essentially cause the go top rodge apart from the president, just step down came up. but the party leaders had pointed out that given the national outcry that people would not be satisfied and they had pushed for even more a centrally to be done. they had recommended that both the president and the prime minister both step down. this didn't go down very well. there was some discussion at which point, but also hearing from the prime minister of is that the prime minister basically offered to step down saying he was willing to resign. only when there was

a national government that was put in place so as to ensure that the stability sort of been building blocks back to normality to like is not sort of hampered by political instability. now that's not obviously to say how much instability all of this is causing, but again, obviously the prime minister having said that, he is willing to go, but obviously with some strong caveats. so the party leaders must now sort of discuss among themselves in terms of the formation of a national government. and that's where things stand at the moment. now, despite what the ladies have a great aunt, will that actually be enough? protested? well, one of the things the protestors have said, and we heard this sort of repeated again and again out on the streets of colombo to day, is that they're not going to be short change. they're not going to be hoodwinked

any longer. so as much as this campaign has been waged for over 3 months, where they've been urging the president then the prime minister to go home. and even when the prime minister, at the time of my in the roger box, who is the president's elder brother finally accepted the cause to resign. and when people was still saying that is not enough. and so they kept pushing that one happy with 5 minutes around a victim and seeing someone who had been voted out of parliament, unable to security, the one seed. and now the people are very, very clear, the see if this does not pan out as we have on. and if this is all a sort of an attempt to pull over at their eyes, they're not going to have the date in marching on colombo again, it almost seems that there is a certain political awakening. there is

a certain awareness among the people that they have kind of put a full stop just to being sort of hoodwinked and strung along by their political leadership. so as much as you might find, prime minister become a senior, a very huge politician over many, many decades, you know, playing word games saying he's willing to resign. but, you know, having sort of caveats on that about, you know, the formation of a national government before he does so people's tolerance levels have pretty much reached 0 point. so they obviously going to watch, they're going to see what happened and going to actually push again if what they have been demanding does not come to fruition. but now you've spent most of the day and i'm a straight among the protest is what's been the mood with demonstrate is i mean with thing, various things, some of them potty in a pool and then others on the street being fired with tea gas. can you talk us

through the makeup of the group? it's very easy. it's all being sort of unfolding throughout the day to day. as you said, the morning was quite tense because it began with people converging on to lumber this minute despite a host of government attempts to prevent that gathering from cook to, to stopping the issue of fuel to a lot of intimidation. but people came and then there was a stand off in terms of some entrance points about access points to that prisons a visual residence. but basically that 1st of all, you have to guess that then followed with a number of rollins of to guess this morning. in fact, the algebra team came in for it as well. and believe me, it's not a pleasant experience. hundreds and hundreds of students. what basically effected this happened actually when there wasn't a whole sort of, you know,

attempt at violence. the police just pushed the line back. obviously, very keen to make sure that the progress the don't break through the barricades and into the president's house. ultimately came to nothing because as you can see, those pictures in the pool, all of those protested, just enjoying the fact that they had breached the president's sort of security and done what they said they would do, that they would take the fight right to the president and make him go and the that is exactly what happened in terms of at least physically. he had to be risked away under escort as he fled the oncoming protest. now there was a lot of anger among the testers of young people. a real mix of protest is coming out and it's quite amazing in terms of the way they found their way to columbus. given that there was no public transport. most probably people had

problems with fuel. i mean they came in that is in laurie's on bicycle on foot. there was one old lady, a grandmother with her 2 grandchildren who had walked through with 20 kilometers. the poor lady was almost at the point of absorption and she sort of fainted by the side of the road and had to be revived. so there were lots of people. these are just kind of rebel young people trying to call me on. this was people from all walks of life across the rainbow of chicago that had come to, you know, put that sort of food stop on the bus regina and the government that has basically brought you long to do it. to me gently, a dynamic situation. we really appreciate you giving us that update. michelle fernandez, live for us in columbia. thank you. let's take a closer look now at the roger pucks of family, which is dominated politics in july and for 20 years main to reggie park. so the current president's brother came to power as president in 2005 and the country for

10 years. he appointed his 3 brothers as government ministers got by roger puck, so won the presidency in 2019 and immediately appointed. his brother may hinder as prime minister may hinder, was replaced by a rental vehicle where i'm a single may demonstrate is accused the brothers of cronyism corruption and economic policies that have caused the current crisis. for more on this story, let's bring in w a. y dana, who is an independent economic analysis analyst rather, and the former deputy governor of the central bank of sure lanka. he joins us from columbia. w. i thanks so much for being on the program. as we've been reporting the sri lankan prime minister says he's willing to resign to make way for an all party government. will this a protest is consent? then of course, you know what, when the police just made by that time you still on the commission that should be taken with that be just saw it because he had been famous for breaking his promises

in the past. so ideal that they know, unless he resigned and now you know, goes away, the purpose campaign will continue and it might end up in a black box. i'm not like the piece for purpose that at a right now, it might end up in the black box total away that black box. my view is that he should immediately step down and allow the auditors to leave their own government right now. we haven't actually seen or heard from the president today. what is the alternative to a roger packs a government billing stand for the cost to do with the current actually employee, the speaker of why the money best that you came close today. but you have to leave and figure out in finding one, which is simply a simple, it may do,

it is not difficult for him to gain. and then even that was another in b to former government. and that government to be able to get you on for 6 months, providing relief to members of the public panda. whooping are laying down the basic requirements to do to eliminate the current economic crisis. and also to enable the country to i have another in the election after 6 months, i have a good neighbor, the time to go like its own garden. so this is the timeline and the step of that is being proposed by many people who have been engaged in the purpose campaign. now, the thing is, or even if the government is replaced, is no short term solution to fix the economic woes of shoreline carries. there and shilling can so really facing fuel and food shortages for some time. yes. there you are perfectly correct simply because you have an in get him government out of all

it might be her parties doesn't mean that see like i will be able to return all the if you economy that use that we are hated to be a specific i leave you don't have any for the next year in the central bank for 3 lanka, and as a result, senior guys unable to maintain the minimum in board program, which includes things were better not looking guess many scenes for di, games, input for industries and so forth. so there would be a very difficult pain mediate for sealants in the next, probably much time period. but what it means is that you run the complexity and that, you know, so be currently going me crazy. my guess is that all of us will have to make the supreme sacrifice. are we now to actually change our present that modern life stays that we have boot, jane. yeah, we had to become, you know, very, or, and christie people in the company near to work for not being so like, why is that

a lot of demand sac to be made of the people in 3 lanka had to enable the country to come out of the present christ, you're in colombo at the my meant, what's it like personally living there? how can you carry out your daily task? are you able to go to the petrol station? are you able to get the preferred that you need? then of course, i stood in the queue for 4 days that no, no, to get a stand experience of you know, i'd be like a 3 days it does in being because the mouse has been coming on the 4th day i put my v got into the queue at 3 o'clock in the morning, but about her game only at 9 o'clock in the night. and by the time maybe it goes around you're not wrong. but i had lots of experience with people who stood there in the hill and the agony. and that if you guys think that these people are going through, i actually experience my teeth. i know i don't use my guy because you're not really

going to be just a paper copy of forwarded my car. i kept it definitely. so for me, my dizzy i either walk, we'll use public transport, we know the i read about it to move from one place to another. maybe the type of life. yeah. even feel good. you can. well, we really appreciate your in science. thank you very much. w a y g y dana, an independent economic analysts. thank you for your time. plenty more head on this new south, including a tense encounter in barley, the u. s. and chinese foreign ministers trying to put their relationships back on track. someone has to grip this moment and make the right decision. the race begins to replace u. k prime minister barak johnson as his governing can assembly party looks to elect a new leader and in sport, a historic when for islands, rugby pie is in new zealand. pharaoh will have all that a more coming up a little later in schools.

ah, ellen musk has confirmed, he's terminating, he's $44000000000.00 takeover of twitter. now the social media company says he will soon test the seo to make sure the agreement goes through finch. mon again explains a $44000000000.00 deal to buy. twitter is now off the table. the richest man in the world you on mosque says he's terminating the contract 3 months after locking in the agreement. he cues the company of failing to provide information about fake accounts on the platform, and whether they make up fewer than 5 percent of users. twitters board chair says it kept its end of the contract as planning to sue. i think twitter probably would prevail in this. i would think simply because there are, there is a deal. know, he must, can get out by paying a $1000000000.00 fine or $1000000000.00. it's,

but it's hard to find a $1000000000.00 penalty. and my guess is that that's what he's trying to prevent is not having to make that go in dollar payment for money. the focus now turns to stocks and whether twitter and tesla, which must owns, will take a hit. the investors want to see must just get back to focus in a passive space x. because twitter from the beginning just really been a distraction. it's been overhanging the stock musk sped to take over twitter stirred controversy back in april. critics were concerned the tesla ceo would promote misinformation on the popular social media site, especially on matters related to politics and health. most said the acquisition was about stopping censorship and defending freedom of speech. analysts say the billionaire may have experienced buyer's remorse is trying to walk away. and the wait is contracts are structured, it's very difficult for buyers to walk away. they're there. these contracts are drafted with a hot air to, to provide a high degree of certainty for the sellers. now,

terminating the $44000000000.00 contract will have to play out on the legal fraud. and social media will surely have plenty to say about it. then small him al jazeera, the police chief in the japanese city of nara, where the former prime minister schanzer arbor was assassinated on friday, says he can't deny there were problems with his security. i was short while speaking at a political campaign event. police are investigating if the gunman named is 41 year old to syria magazine, acted alarm foreign, slowing reports, young and old. they've come to pay their respects to former prime minister sions. obey gunned down at this very corner of nora city, just the day before. mourners have laid flowers, beverages, and written tributes, thanking our bay for his service product that only hall, i'm really shocked because i thought ave would continue his efforts to make the

country better. my child's name includes the turn, cooney, which represents the beautiful nation, built by abbe a motorcade carrying abe's body left a hospital, inara. his wife, a kia, was seated in one of the vehicles. his body was brought back to his home in tokyo, where a crowd of mourners, including friends and colleagues, had gathered ave, who was still a lawmaker in the warehouse, had been campaigning, inara for the upper house election on sunday when he was gunned down. police say a 41 year old former navy officer has admitted to shooting abbey, telling them he was disgruntled with a specific organization. he believed arby to be a part of. the assassination has shocked japan, a nation with strict gun ownership laws, and low crime rate. abbe, japan's longest serving prime minister was

a highly popular and highly controversial figure, who tried to charge a bold way for it for japan, economically and diplomatically. a born strategy sinker, always tried to look beyond japan's horizon in order to broaden japan's diplomatic horizon. in an age, when our gigantic neighbour is growing very much rapidly, personally, he is warm and the friendship once ordered last eternally, i'm not exaggerating. he remembers people once met, he wouldn't forget doubts his personal charm and pro tributes have poured in from around the world. the un security council held

a moment of silence and us president joe biden has ordered us flags to be flown at half mast. and night vigil will be held on monday, and our base funeral will take place on tuesday to be attended by close friends. florence lee al jazeera, the g 20 foreign ministers meeting just to amp damping, indonesia, china's foreign minister, one me and the u. s. secretary of state held talks after that event. jessica washington has more from bali u. s. secretary of state antony blank and described his talks with his chinese counterpart, one e as constructive and useful. the 2 met following the g. 20 foreign ministers meeting in barley marking their 1st bilateral in person meeting since october last year. secretary blinking described the relationship between the u. s. and china as highly consequential. not just for the 2 countries, but for the rest of the world as well. and as such,

he said the relationship needs to be managed responsibly. he said the meeting lasted more than 5 hours and covered a variety of topics. he took the chance during the meeting. he said to raise concerns over the situations in chin jung to bed and hong kong with regard to human rights. and also what he remarks as china is increasing aggression over taiwan. none of these are easy topics, but the united states seeks always to be consistent voice on human rights for mental freedoms. martha stand against china or any other country, but to help the best piece security and human dignity. the war in ukraine has been really the main point of discussion during the course of this g 20 foreign ministers meeting. and that same theme has continued into this bilateral meeting between the u. s. and china secretary blink and said that during the meeting, he raised his concerns about the continued normal relationship between china and

russia. and said that now was the time that all countries must put pressure on russia to end its aggression in ukraine. i shared again with se counselor that we are concerned about the pierce's alignment with russia. now what you hear from, from beijing is that he claims to be neutral. oh, i would start with the proposition that um, it's pretty hard to be neutral when it comes to this aggression. following the conclusion of this highly anticipated bilateral meeting, both secretary blinkin and mr. wong will continue their diplomatic efforts here in asia. secretary lincoln will continue on and travel to thailand where he will meet with thailand's prime minister and foreign minister. minister one meanwhile, will remain in indonesia where he will meet with the indonesian president. the 1st candidate seeking to replace bars, johnson as british prime minister, have been announced, have announced rather their standing. johnson has angered many in his own party by

insisting he'll stay for now rather than hand over to his deputy. his aim baba has the latest. a day off to paris, johnson said he stepped down attention to turn to watch and who comes next around the newly cleaned up palace of westminster. the talk is of a clean break of restoring trust in governments. someone has to grip this moment and make the right decision. and friday, the 1st of the political big beasts announced their standing of the previous chancellor. rashid sumac and i have spent my career bringing people together soon. next, one of 2 cabinet members who's resignation lead to a torrent of junior ministers quitting. and johnson eventually giving in. there should be a new leader. but on thursday, johnson insisted he'd stay in post until the new leader was chosen a process, but could take many weeks within the party. initial opposition to him staying on in the interim seems to be weakening. i don't think that it would be appropriate for us whether we are around the cabinet table or in any other part of the british

government, just to kind of down tools and say, actually you know what, we're not going to do anything until the new boss is in place we have a duty and our duty is to govern what's due to happen is all the conservative members of parliament get to vote on the leadership candidates. it could take several rounds before they narrow it down to just 2 names. assuming ny the drops out, it's then up to the wider party membership to pick a new leader. what's different this time is it's not a different saver policy. it's not parliamentary deadlock. as it was either to resume with her failure to get her breath it deal through. in this case, the problem is the prime minister and in particular the premises judgment. his integrity and the fact that he really lost confidence of say, many people in his government. and that's meant that says that it's slight weird that he's continuing the opposition labor party still say if johnson isn't gone soon, they'll try to force him out using parliament. he shouldn't be desperately clinging

on when he has had to leave office because of his disgraceful conduct. and that's why i say the tory party should remove him. and if i don't, we will step up in the national interest and bring a photo confidence. it's unlikely though that enough conservative m p 's would back stormer in 2 weeks, parliament breaks for the summer, leaving westminster to the tourists, and leaving the choice of prime minister to fewer than a 150000 conservative party members. but between now and then, plenty could happen to change boris johnson's time table for leaving downing street . the dean baba al jazeera london. it's time now for check on the weather. he's everton. hello is looking a little disturbed across southern parts of the middle east at the moment. lots of cloud showing up on the satellite picture and that brings with it some heavy showers and borders that bring with it some flooding as well. so we are concerned about northern parts of a man. this little clutch of storms are rolling across the north,

of the keynote passes. former presidents has returned home. i e's after he was asked and coming up in sport, the host talks of their group as morocco fight for africa is a biggest for both sides. ah ah ah.

safer than mm hm and then international anti corruption excellence award boat. now for your hero, lou ah ah, hello, you're watching out his ear. i'm emily anglin. he's a reminder of our top stories this. our protest is have stormed the house of president, go to buy raja parks. are angry about the country's economic crisis and demanding

his resignation. at an emergency meeting, the prime minister renelle, vic rema singer has said he's willing to step down your secretary of state. antony blinkin says he's had a frank discussion with chinese foreign minister, one a when the 2 met on the sidelines of the g. 20 meeting in bali begging says the to reached consensus on improving the countries relationship. and dave on mosque has confirmed his terminating his at $44000000000.00 takeover of twitter. the test the ceo's legal team says the company breached the deal. the twitter says it will soon musk to enforce the agreement. ill on masks, canceled twitter deal was made and collapsed in a matter of months. let's take a closer look. mask started buying the company shares at the start of the year by april. 4th, he was twitters. it biggest shareholder, 10 days later mosque offered to buy for $54.20

a share. twitter initially refused 5 accepted it a week later on may 13th musk amounts. the offer was on hold until he had seen a report on spam and frank accounts on the platform. and on friday he called off the deal accusing twitter of breaching the terms of the agreement. the company says he will now so musk to make sure the deal goes ahead. for more on this, let's bring him, tim hubbard, who is an assistant professor at the university of notre, where he is. research focuses on strategic leadership. he joins us from indiana. tim, thanks so much for being on this news. our web same mask. thank you so much. you're welcome. we've seen mascot m, what he's like at the helm of 2 other major companies. he owns tesla and space eggs . so what can we make of this business decision to pull out of buying twitter whether you've we stand back and we think about what elan mosque is trying to do in terms of business and humanity. i think he's trying to push the world forward and with twitter, i think he saw a different avenue to do that in terms of discourse and public, you know,

public policy and trying to understand how people communicate with each other. but i think in the end he's gonna be able to go back to these technical companies, specifically tesla and space acts where they're engineering problems. and it's a little bit different management style than he would have had to deal with at twitter. one of the broader ramifications of this mask in any future business ventures. i think one thing that we have to keep in mind is that he is the type of person that can change directions very quickly. we've seen that in as business practices, both the tesla ended and twitter where he tried to take over obviously i think that he's always going to kind of have that where he's going to get interested in something and go down that path a little bit. but he'll always kind of come back to the core of what he's trying to do. i think twitter is just the latest example of that. and so any future deals i think are always going to be viewed in this light. where if the he has

a credible offer for something, everybody's going to stand back and go, is he actually going to follow through a 3rd? or is he going to dabble in this idea and kind of rail markets up and then go back to what he's interested in actually doing as someone who's research focuses on strategic leadership. what do you think that says about his leadership qualities? i think it makes it a little bit tough in terms of trying to work with investors. he brought a lot of people on to the twitter deal, a diverse group of investors. and so now he's got strained relationships with all these people that he's tried to work with in order to put this deal together. and so from a leadership perspective, within the companies, i don't think it changes very much, but it definitely changes the way that he approaches working with outside investors, outside stakeholders and companies that he might be interested in the future. what do things next? do you think mosque is prepared to face a protracted legal battle with theresa? unfortunately, i do. i think that

a legal battle is almost guaranteed. and the problem there is that he's going to then have his attention divided again, and he kind of walked down that path anyway, when he was thinking about buying twitter, you know, he's already running test lance basic. so he's got a 100000 employees, approximately between the 2. and so if you add on twitter, it's that much more management to handle. in this case, if you get sued, he's still going to have to give that attention to twitter just in the form of a law suit. and so his management attention is going to definitely have to drift away. unfortunately, from the 2 core businesses that he's running. and so he tried to buy twitter and that was going to take his time away anyway. want to step in and say, okay, we and i can actually get the benefit of owning twitter, but you're going to be involved in all of these legal battles that are going to come about. it's just going to be that much more challenging for him. tim, we've just been playing vision of ala mass going and pennies daily business, dancing on stage,

and the like at test their events. what is his colorful characters say about his leadership style? i think the colorful character actually enables him to do a little bit more unorthodox. things in terms of how he manages his company. so for example, he can be the type that can get angry in a meeting because it kind of seems normal with the personification that he's kind of built. and the, the way that he leads. and so, as he's diving into these very technical problems and answering questions and trying to make decisions with people, he always has the ability to kind of go in any direction he wants. and there's benefits to that. and then there's drawbacks to that benefits. you know, you can change on a dime how you wanna, they wanna approach business now you want to manage, but at the same time, employees never quite know how he's going to react of things. and so, as far as i understand of he, he does have that dual thing where some employees love it, in terms of he can, they can, you know, take risks and try different things. but at the same time,

some employees kind of get a little bit of disturbed if you will, by just how unpredictable he can be. he was focusing on social media and it does have a, a role to play, i guess, in society, but also focusing on something like electric cars is also important to you think that sort of says a lot about where he's putting his energy now going forward. yeah, i think if you stand back and you think about the legacy of eli musk, ah, he is one of those types of people that can change the world than that could be in terms of electric cars. it could be in terms of getting, you know, humans to mars and greater involvement and space. he also, at the same time, i is able to, you know, take on these grand challenges in the food stamps. and we think about his legacy. i think his legacy is going to be that i dont think twitter ever actually fit into that legacy to me. it always seemed like a distraction. something that he was going to do because he was interested in it

and he was frustrated with twitter. but if you stand back anything about what we hope his legacy is going to be, i think it's going to be running some of these grand challenges and trying to tackle things that are going to help humanity more broadly. what can we really appreciate your insights and what is a very complex man, tim habit, the assistant professor at the university of nature. don, thank you very much. thank you very much. moving on now, and russia has vetoed a resolution of un security council that sought to extend a deliveries to syrians in the last rebel controlled northwest region. the u. n. is wanting, closing the carto through the bab l, how a border crossing could be catastrophic and diplomatic. and it's a james phase has more now from the united nations for tpc via keep my eye as things stand. this may end up being the last shipment of humanitarian aid, food and medicine from turkey into northwest syria. i think he's incorporated in

nodded 4100000 people rely on this lifeline, but it must be authorized by the un security council. and in the council chamber, there's deadlock a resolution to allow the crossing to operate for another 12 months was supported by all members. apart from china, which abstained, and russia, which used its, vito russia then presented its own rival resolution allowing the crossing to operate for 6 months. but it didn't pass. it was only supported by russia and china . this is not a moment to mince words. i have long said that this is a life and death issue, and tragically, people will die because of this fault. and the country who shamelessly deploy the beetle to day negotiations will continue. the current authorization for the border crossing runs out at the end of sunday, but russia doesn't sound in the mood for compromise. teach you some one, her proposes our draft. so we would not say that this is our intellectual property

. if someone proposes our draft for the 2nd time, why not? if not, if not, i'm say, i think that the, the pages over. so he asked the u. s. ambassador with the russians, unwilling to compromise. will she have to back down and accept the russian proposal . now that would be very humiliating for you, but it would be better than nothing, wouldn't it? his resolution was nothing. ah, we got 99 percent of the way there with the russians. we gave them 99 percent. they admitted they got 99 percent and they are holding out for one percent to continue to give support to the syrian regime. obviously tensions around the council table of increased because of the ongoing war in ukraine. but this is about more than security council, theater and drama. it's about millions of syrians, their lives at risk from starvation or lack of medical treatment. james bays al jazeera at the united nations. washington d. c has had one of the most polluted rivers in the us for quite some time now. and

scientists are trying to change that. the anacostia revise being brought back to lie with a little help from shellfish out there is gabriel alexander. explain. it's a body of water that was so polluted for so long. it was often referred to as america's forgotten river. but thanks to a slow and steady cleanup effort to anacostia river has improved to the point where aquatic light can actually be seen swimming in its waters. again, this is clear if i've ever seen the water down here. and now the continued improvement, the washington dc river ris with the fresh water muscle and the part clam part, snail like shellfish is creating water. marine biologist from the anacostia watershed society. have released over 26000 native muscles into the river. they act as sort of a natural vacuum cleaner. to cleanse the water muscles are our filter

filter feeder so they can help clean the water. one muscle of the size of the muscle we were collecting today can filter between 10 to 20 gallons of water a day. so when you add up the numbers in a year, that's a lot of water that they can filter. now the muscles filter the equivalent of $106.00 limping sides swimming pools of water every year. this is what they filtered in less than 2 hours, but propagating muscles and reintroducing them to the river has had a dual impact, clean the river, and help keep them from going extinct in the united states. we need to work to conserve muscle because greater than 70 percent of them are listed as endangered. threaten or are just like conservation concern. and there's like 300 species of fresh water muscle in the united states. so when you like 70 percent of that 300

species, they are great risk of being held in many ways these muscles are coming home because before this river got so polluted it killed most of them off there more than 80 different types of muscle species that lived here, it was in 2018 biologist started reintroducing them in an experimental project. and it appears to be working for a once polluted river now on its way back to being healthy. thanks in large part to a most unlikely shellfish. gabriel is on auto al jazeera washington. the u. s. president has signed an executive order to help protect women's access to abortion and contraception. joe bought and criticize what he called an out of control supreme court, which recently overturned road. this is why the lemma ruling that guaranteed the constitutional right to an abortion across the us. mike, hannah reports from washington, dc. the new measures today. the presidents lasted the supreme court's recent
