hello i marianna demise you welcome to the news ally from london coming off in the next 60 minutes. a controversial vote at the un clear the way for a to begin flowing again between turkey and north y, syria. but only for 6 months. the dawn of a new era in astronomy, stunning images from nasa's james web telescope reveal the early universe as we've never seen it before. what it was going to be was an armed revolution. i mean, people died that day tested me resumes as the investigations that january 6th capital attack with a focus on the role of right wing groups. then there were 8 candidates hoping to be the next leader of the you case, conservative party i'm joanna roscoe with the sports as tango, its prepare for a return to major gulf will hear from the 15th time champion on how his body is
12:02 am
holding up ahead of the open, ah hello and welcome to the news. our un security council has passed to resolution to extend across the border, a deliveries into serious loss rebel held region. but it's only for 6 months. permission for shipments from turkey into northwestern, syria expired on monday. after russia vetoed an attempt to renew the mandate for a year and diplomatic added to james bay's has more in this now from the united nations. after days of uncertainty, the security council renewed permission for humanitarian aid to flow from turkey into syria. but for just 6 months, it was deeply controversial. the u. k. france and the u. s. abstained a resolution with a 12 month timeline, which is what the un and agencies requested was defeated on friday when russia used
12:03 am
it's vito. the vote we took this morning as what happens when one council member takes the entire security council hostage with the lives of syrian men, women, and children hanging in the balance. the resolution that was finally passed was very similar to the one russia had itself proposed on friday. then 13 out of 15 council members had voted against it, norway and ireland introduced the new version that festival. this was not a decision taken on the basis of a russian draft to day. this was a cold pen holder, russia air, ireland, and norway, se draft now just the words different. i think on the face of it, you may look at that and say that change, but you know that the devil is in the detail. and i think if you look at the checks, there are significant differences. what is different is a pause requiring the un secretary general antonio terrace to provide report on the aid situation. by december, he gave me his reaction to the new resolution. we have been asking for the renewal
12:04 am
of the cross bar to the point as it is essential for, for the people in italy. it's a matter of life. and there are many of them that we have asked for a renewal of her whenever the single 6 months. but i strongly hope that after the 6 months or it will be renewed, the head of the human rights group. amnesty international says the events of recent days show the work of the security council is now virtually paralyzed to he rule doing old a different system. the security council, as well as his clearly demonstrating that she has upon the end of its past. right now. something else need to come up with just the 6th month extension members of the security council will have to renegotiate humanitarian aid in syria in january
12:05 am
. that's a time of year when conditions are particularly tough for people in northern syria because of the harsh wintery weather. james bayes al jazeera of the united nations or un officials of describe the bubble. how a crossing is the gateway, the world's largest humanitarian aid operation. delivering supplies from turkey to syria. this aid is a lifeline for millions of people in it live. more than 56000 truckloads of life saving supplies have traveled through the car door in the last 8 years. about 4000000 people live in rebel, our areas of serious northwest 1700000, living in displacement camps that off to fleeing government held areas was the agencies on the border between syria and turkey, saying a greater commitment is needed some because the glue has more on this now from assemble extending to you and i'm going to $30.00 and $8.00 to northern syria for 6 more months. may is the pension for now, but it is not seen as
12:06 am
a solution. international and local in jewels have always been a warning that planning and implementing such a white scale operation into northwest and syria, where 4500000 civilians reside records, longer than 6 months time. there are 4400000 civilians just slip and among all of them, 2400000 of them depend on international humanitarian aid. that's why they say 6 months time will not be a solution to the problems. as the children are facing a big risk of hunger and they are already on their nourish. and the majority of the population are children and women, which is seen as the vulnerable statement of the society. some of the angels over the started showing they have reactions saying that the world is just watching what's going on. and some of them say that monetary and actions should be taken
12:07 am
away from the security council. as the rush of veto is always a threat for the civilians, and i'll turn it to be, plan must be established and local, grassroots, and deals inside syria must be empowers. charity groups of describe the 6th month extension is insufficient, lead leaving agencies with really limited options to reach millions of people in need across northwest and syria. save the children is saying this short term renewal lets down some of the wells was vulnerable children. and this time frame is going to cause some significant challenge challenges for them because the resolution will expire in the middle of serious, harsh winter when children and their families, most of him live in camps. india, unimaginable cold temperatures, about warm clothes, food or heating. well, they're smaller developments in syria, the south u. s. military saying that it's conducted a strike in the northern part of the country, killing my her to
12:08 am
a girl leader of i still in syria. us central command is saying a 2nd senior official of the group was wounded in that strike local media report. say 2 people were killed. washington says ala gall was responsible for pursuing the development of ice hill outside of iraq and syria. on out her other top story this, our masses, james web space telescope has captured a distinct signature water on a distant planet. the discovery is the most detailed of its kind to date. more spectacular images of the early universe taken by the telescope has been released. they show galaxies and stars some 13000000000 light years away. nasa says it's the deepest look into the cosmos as i captured. and more images are expected. james webb, telescope is viewed as the successor to the famous hubble telescope. with scientists saying it will be a dominant force for space discovery for years to come. we
12:09 am
are now going to be determining things that we don't even know what the questions are that we ought to ask that. so it's one of these great engineering seats, not just for us, but for humanity, for planet earth, for the citizens of planet earth. a will. and thompson is a writer for space dot com. she joins us live now from orlando florida. bye skype. thanks so much. amy, for joining us. what did you make of the images? oh, they're simply breathtaking. i'm there is a variety of images here. we have that lovely, deep feel that shows many of the galaxies that are very, very old. and then we have our 1st look at an atmosphere of another planet
12:10 am
in a different solar system. so that's pretty amazing. and then we also have a stellar nursery where new stars are being born. and i'm one that is actually sort of like the death throes of a star, and that is the southern ring nebula. and that is just incredibly fantastic. other things here that we have not seen before. explain to us why this is a new era for astronomy. sure, so the james web space telescope is designed to see in the near infrared and the mid infrared, so in comparison, hubble sees mostly invisible light. so james webb is looking for wavelengths that are going to be longer, and they can actually peer behind the gas and the dust that is in these nebulas. so for example, for the southern ring nebula, i'm scientists thought that it was
12:11 am
a binary star system. meaning that there were 2 stars that were orbiting each other in the center of that nebula. and thanks to these images, we can confirm that there are 2 stars in there and you can actually see both of them. and so this is important because what we're seeing here are images with a sort of a sharpness and a clarity that we've never had before. that shows for the 1st time what areas that were previously invisible to us. correct, like in the corrina nebula, which is a stellar nursery. so this is where new stars are being formed. and there are hundreds of stars in there that we can see on this new image that we could not see on any of the ones previously captured by hubble. so it's revolutionary. and so how difficult was it then to get these images? while these actually i, james webb is probably, you know, at least $3.00 to $5.00 times more sensitive. it's,
12:12 am
it's the mirror on it is larger, so it's way more sensitive than the hubble space telescope. so what that does is that not only makes sharper pictures, but it also sort of cuts down some of the observation times, like the hubble deep field image took days to get and the hubble and the james web deep field image took about 12 hours. so it will be able to let us do a lot more science that we could not do before. and this is the 1st dump of images is going to be many more to come. what are your expectations? and in terms of discovering ancient galaxies, alien worlds and celestial bodies within our solar system, it's gonna be so exciting on. there's a lot of these images. if you look at the one for the southern ring nebula, there is a little, it looks maybe like an artifact in the photo, but it is actually
12:13 am
a galaxy that is located behind the nebula. so it's further away from us. it's shining through. and that is just one example when it comes to x o planets like this discovery, they detected water vapor and clouds in the atmosphere this planet. but once they really dig into the data, they can go beyond that and they can see what kind of molecules are in there is their carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and, and different things like that. that can tell us a lot about each type of planet. oh, thank you very much. appreciate it. amy lynn thompson or i to for space dot com you with the news, our life from london, there is much more still to bring you on the program. we're gonna be focusing on ukraine where the government and keith is saying that it's destroyed a russian ammunition, dep oh. in occupied harrison using weapons supplied by the united states. and, ah, crowds line the streets of tokyo to pay their loss,
12:14 am
respects the former japanese prime minister oceans obey most people, no mias mo, far it's not mammal whose reality olympic saw mo, far reveals. he was illegally traffic to the u. k. as a child, while we're on that story and sport ah, us politicians of resumed investigation into last year's attack on the capital building. tuesdays hearing focused on an oval office meeting with lawyers and former president donald trump, meeting one a described as unhinged congressional investigators are seeking to draw connections between donald trump's associates, and right when groups who storm this seat of government. following all of this,
12:15 am
she harbor tansy joins a slide from capitol hill in washington. it brings up that i in terms of what transpired in those conversations with president trump. this is the latest chapter and a narrative of the committee has been trying to weave beginning with donald trump's refusal to accept the election results that embarking on the campaign to pressure state officials, department of justice by mike pens, the vice president as well. despite the fact that those around him at the white house were telling him, there was no case to answer that these were free and fair elections to day. we had a bit from pat salumi, the white house council, who sat for a videotape deposition on friday. he's the latest person, including the attorney general of anchor trumpeter, was to make it clear that he as far as he was concerned, there was no case to answer. not only that he, he suggested a mock meadows, the chief of staff, staunch trump. ally was also thinking, you know, hopefully we're getting to the end of this mania from donald trump about over
12:16 am
turning the election. but they were wrong and it seems, according to the committee, a narrative changes on december the 14th with the electoral college meeting, they certified the election. they 8 name joe biden as the president elect, and that's where things start getting even more on the hinge as a white house meeting on december, the 18th, where the breast members of the white house staff are confronted by various members of that, i'd rather out their selection of advices for donald trump like mike, mike flinn and, and others who are suggesting things like seizing voting machines and so on. the white house of saying that this is just ridiculous. you can't, you can't possibly do it. that's when things seem to change. donald trump, according to the commission, them in the early hours the following morning, been tweets out the infamous tweet that it's statistically impossible for him to have lost the election. therefore, everyone should gather in washington on january. the 6th will be wild. and what we heard them was what that what, that's what that meant for right wing paramilitary groups who had actually been
12:17 am
thinking about some sort of some sort of action later all in january. but we heard from a member of the ost keepers, one of these groups that we should be clear, he was no longer a member of the earth keepers. but he explained what he felt. the youth keepers would have felt it fate. once i saw that tweet, i think we need to quit mincing words and jess, talk about truths and what it was going to be was an armed revolution. i mean, people died that day. long foresman officer side. this a, there was a gallows set up in front of the capitol. this could have been the spark that started a new civil war, and no one would have one there. having said that, we also heard from members of trump's rank and file base an amount who just said look, you know, we would as well about donald trump. he told us to go to the capital. so we went to be told us to leave earlier. we would have, we would have left, you got it once again, that same sense of that. 2 different factions,
12:18 am
or several factions, perhaps outbound those disorganized paramilitary grouping. and i'm as the, the trump base members who were just like swept, swept along with it. nothing though, directly connecting donald trump with colluding with right wing paramilitaries to court. stop the steel or anything. yes, it's true. the members of problems in a circle do have contacts with the proud boys with the keepers, but all of it rather circum stamps of what the committee is suggesting was there was a convergence of interests. you have to know what he was doing is the assumption from the committee. what we're going to hit next week. we understand there is the next chapter, which is what was he doing? why all? capitol hill was being stormed. what was his dominion like, what was the demeanor of those around him? what was that like that? that would be interesting. next, next week and then there was a small margaret at the end. where is trainee of the committee? suggested the company trying to tampa with a witness and she has she doesn't. the committee is now sent out to the department of justice for investigation. all right, thank you very much for the latest from washington chaper tansy or in all the
12:19 am
developments us president joe biden's as dealing with immigration is a hemisphere challenge. shared by both america and mexico is a meeting with mexico's leader at the white house. biden says they've committed to infrastructure investments on the border to present, or also discussing global challenges like climate change, energy, food, and regional security. this is the 1st face to face meeting since andrew manual, as oper, door snobs. last month's summit of the americas. my camera has moved from the white house. well, it was very much a reset in the us mexico relationship, given the fact that to look us up at a door refuse to attend that summit of america's because the us did not invite cuba as well. and nicaragua, however, despite that, and also despite his criticism, in recent weeks of the us support for ukraine, the president insisting that the us should be spending more on financial aid in
12:20 am
central america as an in military aid for ukraine. but despite all these differences, the meeting was very friendly. indeed, the to lead is exchange pleasantries, the mexican president spoke for a lengthy period of time comparing the relationship with us at present to back in the days of roosevelt. when there was a close relationship with mexico in the united states saying that this is the element that he wants to re introduce into the relationship. the 2 leaders off cameras spoke about immigration issues, particularly about how to increase legal immigration. but there was no tangible agreements that had been expected, that the us would announce new these as to be supplied to mexicans. wishing to come into the country, but no tangible agreements. but what this meeting was all about was resetting that relationship to re establish a sense of togetherness. so as the mexican president said, a sense of unity between the 2 countries given the somewhat rocky road in the
12:21 am
relationship in recent months. well now joe biden, lisa, for his 1st visit to the middle east as us president on wednesday. his 1st stop is route where security has been boosted for his arrival. biden's visit coincides with really a time of ongoing political upheaval that he's going to be visiting the occupied west bank as well. despite fading hopes, of any sort of negotiation between israel on the palestinians. next stop is saudi arabia, a country promised to make a pariah while he was running for president. rami hurries the director of global engagement at the american university of bay routes, and he says that joe biden has an uphill battle in the region. the real dilemma is that vitamin is trying to continue with a process that 4 or 5 previous american presidents are used in the middle east, unsuccessfully in most cases. and that means to try to create a coalition of arab israeli, american,
12:22 am
and some other western parties that work together to push back against some enemy, the enemy of the day. today, the enemy of iran, before it used to be isis before, that it used to be a radical iraq and syria. before that, it was the soviet union before that it was harder. now you've also got russia and china into the mix as people could be pushed back. the, the american foreign policy that tries to use this method doesn't work because it doesn't focus on the fundamental interest and rights of the, of the 460000000 arabs. and the predominantly arab region, and the things that they're trying to do are largely not totally, but largely american policy is largely driven by what does good for israel, which barton himself said, that's why it's going to start was look for donors to the american political parties. and what's good for large groups, the represent,
12:23 am
domestic and international. why vision? they did stage for democratic senators in the us have sent a letter to the secretary of state, anthony blink and demanding answers about review of the killing of al jazeera john . the sharing block lay senate to say the security coordination review does not live up to sac tripling, can call for an independent, incredible investigation. democratic signatories to the latter are chris on holland . chris murphy, patrick lee and dick durbin sharina, ucla was shot in the head while reporting on israeli raids in the occupied west bank. so the guy now to the latest developments in ukraine law forces they, they've destroyed a russian military, ammunition depot in the southern her son region, some near by residential buildings have also been damaged, gave is called on civilians to leave parts of the region as saying they plan to launch new operations i counter offensive to retake areas last to russia. alan
12:24 am
fisher reports now from the capital. keith this see the ukrainians is the destruction of an army depot. it's thought you are supplied. hi mars rockets were launched that the site in the russian controlled region of cash song, the ukranian c 52 russian soldiers were also killed. but the most go back to thought it is claim it was a fertilizer store, and 7 civilians have died. i'll just either cannot independently confirm either claim pictures taken in the daylight give some idea of the damage caused the u. s. has been rushing miss our systems to ukraine, believing they can help push back russian forces. one us senator, arched congress to st. more and send them quickly when people understandably ask about our support from ukraine, our taxpayer funded aid to the tune of billions of dollars. they deserve to know that their heartburn taxpayer dollars are being spent wisely. in my view that needs bending and on weapons like high mars, they're actually making
12:25 am
a difference on the battlefield. the russians are believed to be in an operational pause in the east of the country, ready to pu sean, and take the rest of the don bus region. the pause is to restock refueling re supply, but that becomes much more difficult if the ukrainians are able to target and successfully destroy ammunition dumps. some analysts say the rocket system could significantly delay russian progress. the ukranian president says he's glad to have them. yeah, horrible, jealousy. i want to thank the united states of america for its decision to provide ukraine with a new 400000000 dollar defense assistance package. additional hi mars and other precision weapons allow us to take anti terrorist steps. they allow us to reduce russian strides with their missiles on our people. e hickman. but the u. s. believes the russians are also restocking, turning to the iranians for you. ease are unmanned drones, are ended, information indicates that the iranian government is preparing to provide russia

with up to several 100. you avi's, including weapons capable, you avi's on an expedite expedited time. why? the u. s. insists more school has failed than its main strategic objectives in ukraine. but those in the east are bracing themselves for a major russian offensive. that could come in just these. alan fisher, al jazeera keith, the euro had parity with the us dollar in trading on choose day before saying a slight rebound. slow is violation of the currency since 2002, it's being driven by fears of a global recession. invest as they're anxious about a lack of growth across the years on there also concerns that supplies of rush and gas might be cut because of what's happening in ukraine. natasha butler has worn out from paris for the year. it's been falling since the beginning of the year, but the 1st time in 2 decades, the exchange rate between the euro and the dollar is pretty much the same. and there are a number of reasons for that high inflation,
12:27 am
which has been fueled by the war in ukraine, added to that of course, ongoing concerns in europe over energy supplies, as you're tries to win itself for fresh and gas. but he's also concerned about russia cutting its existing gas supplies. on top of that, the u. s. federal reserve high interest rates much faster than european central bank. and all that is meant that the dollar is much stronger. it's a much safer bet of for investors, particularly as some analysts say that the euro could continue to fall in the coming weeks. you with the news, our life from london more still to bring you on the program. government in panama announces measures to cut the rise and fuel prices, basic food products after a large scale protest there. and an 18 time major champion is honored at the home of golf. that story coming out with joe. ah

for the immediate release of its soldiers being held in by my co following an emergency meeting led by president water in abidjan, the council for national security read out a communicate in that communicate. they said that the detention of that soldiers was unjustified, that they were there to support the un mission. but for the molina authorities, these men are mercenaries there to create trouble in the country. take a listen to what the statement was on national television, read out by the maryan military genta. this is, you know, the faithful intention of those arrested most clearly to break the dynamics of the rebuilding and securing of molly as well as the return to constitutional order. hostage is one of the local media in every coast, accused the maryan genta of taking the soldiers hostage, almost as a bargaining chip because the maryan military regents and by mecca who took over in a coo in 2021, had been increasingly isolated. the french forces that were helping them have
12:36 am
pulled out. now, there are only the russian mercenaries that have stepped in that are supporting these the maryan authorities there to stem out attacks from arm groups linked to al qaeda and iso as well as the un peacekeeping force. but for many in the region, they fear that the security in the region is contingent on the stability. and molly, already, there's been attacks by arm groups linked to al qaeda and i, so from within, molly to neighboring countries such as ivory coast. and so there's increased pressure on the 1000000 military june to, to cooperate with the un peacekeeping mission to try to bring an end to the violence. or here 8 candidates have made on to the ballot open to her place bars. johnson, as leader of the case, conservative party. the former chancellor wishes tonight gives a favorite. he kicked off his campaign on tuesday after a series of votes. the u. k. next, prime minister will be announced on september 5th, or as johnson step down off to internal pressure from his conservative party of

colleagues and any of the other individual candidates. but another name that i think we need to watch out for is penny mordant. the conservative home website did a survey on tuesday of conservative members, and they're the ones who will get the postal balance. at the end of the day to select the leader and penny mode and surprise and they came out talk amongst conservative members. so between at the moment it looks between riches through neck and penny morton. but the other 6 would probably have will disagree with me. animals government as an ounce measures to cut the rise in fuel prices and 10 basic staple food products. after a week of nationwide protests president florentine cortisone called the cabinet meeting on tuesday to pass to decree to stop further arises in prices. wave of demonstrations started last week when teachers called for an indefinite strike construction work as members of indigenous communities are also involved. sandra

from downtown soother and the 5 star hotel where the leaders are meeting is a different world altogether. one where some of fiji most vulnerable are dealing with the reality of climate change on a daily basis. pacific leaders say they want to develop a plan to get more international support and funding to counter the effects of global warming. we've contributed very little to the, to the problem are. so we feel that that it's important for those that are responsible that the, the, to provide that support or through through lawson amend damage. but instead the main talking point was who wasn't coming to the 1st in person meeting in 3 years. kiera bass withdrew in protest against the result of last year's content. your selection for the position of secretary general of the pacific islands, forum and opposition leader is reportedly blaming pressure from china. in may china's foreign minister when ye was in the region signing security and economic deals with pacific nations. but beijing has denied putting any pressure on carrabas

. john gore. there is no factual basis for this related report. over the years, china and the pacific islands form have enjoyed good co operative relations. what i want to stress is that china has never interfered in the internal affairs of the pacific island countries. but the struggle for influence is likely to remain at or near the top of the agenda throughout this forum. but away from the meetings, there's little or no interest in the big names who have come to town. fijians are dealing with the reality of a world changing around them and what it might look like for generations to come. wayne, hey, al jazeera zuba, a private serial has been held in tokyo for former prime minister sions. our bay. people lined the streets of the capital to pay their final respects as his body was taken from the. so georgie temple to the funeral hall, abbe was shot dead at an election rally on friday. tony chang has more now from

respond in detail. so in a nutshell real, you know, the real reason that this is such a milestone is because i think it is one step closer to that reality of being able to use transportation in this is all designed to be able to address the significant short of available for transportation and one of the dreams of many transparent physicians and surgeons has always been able to see if we could have an unlimited source of these organs available for life saving procedures. i think it's over up to us and many people like minded, or we would be joining us tomorrow. i think that, you know, we probably learned as much as we hadn't from studying this in primate. and you know, we really need to put these organs in the human to see what's going to happen. now

12:52 am
dirt? you're just getting paid a lot of money upfront and playing a few events. i just don't see how that move is as positive in the, in the long term. for a lot of these players, well, with this preparing for this week's open championship where you couldn't leave a step closer to jack nicklaus is 18 major titles. he says he's feeling good, but pacing himself as he continues to work his way back from severe leg injuries suffered in a car accident, which is one the open 3 time, twice at the iconic scottish course. but the 46 year old admits he's not in peak physical condition. well, it can, my body can get better. but realistically, not a whole lot. you know, it's been through a lot and at 46, you don't quite heal as well as they do at 26. so it is what it is, you know, and just lucky enough to in our sport, to build
12:53 am
a play as long as we, we are able to play in the late into the forty's. and especially on the links golf course like this. you can content into your fifty's with played alongside worry mcroy at a celebration event for former open champions on monday in macro things. target has it in him to lift the claret jug once again. i could certainly see it. it's not going to be said, it's going to be a game of chance this week, and no one's been better at playing that sort of chess sky. i'm on a golf course and tiger over the last 20 years. well, mcroy grew up idolizing woods, but joe had been from golf monthly. things take his ability to intimidate play as is diminished in recent years. talk has become a lot more friendly with some of the younger guys out on top, just in summers. as i mentioned, rory mcroy, they spend a lot of time together away from the course. and let's not forget, you know, talking which was the, was their idol growing up, you know,
12:54 am
they watched him with major off the major. so that always be looking to see what tiger is doing, where he's on the lead a board, but i don't think we're going to see as many players fall away from contention as we used to kind of coming down the stretch. partly because i think the pool of talented players is so big. now the amount of play is to have the ability to win. a major is much larger. so i think if target is going to win, because it can be pushed all the way to the 72nd grade. the big question will be whether he can walk round 7 to house of championship golf. but some amateurs, it's a relatively flat golf course. it's going to be playing, but it's a, be sure conditions of firm and fall. so it's really going to be about, you know, can he get in and out of those deep pop punk is kind of keep the board in play and really utilize his watch game. and he's putting, which we know that he's so good, i guess, one the open round. twice. and andrews is his favorite golf course in the world. and he loves the unique challenges, all the little nuances of playing league go, getting the ball on the ground, the creativity that falls, and you know,
