us president joe biden is ready, prime minister. yeah, luck paid have signed a non binding declaration to prevent iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. bivens says, it's vital to world security to ensure iran never has a nuclear weapon. it's abiding the 2nd day in israel, and his 1st trip to the middle east as president, is also expected to visit the occupied west bank on saudi arabia. today. you and i also discussed immersed commitment to ensuring iran never obtains a nuclear weapon. this is a vital security interest of israel in the united states and i would add for the rest of the world as well. i continue to believe that diplomacy is the best way to achieve this outcome and will continue to work or israel to counter other threats from iran throughout the region. including support for terrorism, ballistic missile program continues and uplift, ration of weapons to terrorists and proxies. mike has brought stephanie deckers,

johnny slide know from western and kelly iran was one of the main topics for the 2 men in their discussions earlier on today. they both spoke and made speeches after signing that non binding declaration. what are the main points from the speeches that you picked as we spoke earlier are really all about iran, saudi arabia, and integrating israel into the region in the sense of normalizing ties with its arab neighbors. something that was started out through the former president donald trump, through the abraham accords normalization countries at the moment like united arab emirates, monterey, morocco and sudan in the past. rob the arab states usually would have said and did say that there would be no normalization of ties with israel until there was a palestinian state, the acceptance of palestinian sovereignty actually, you know, rolling off the back of that in that hust conference. joe biden was os you will be visiting augusta, victoria,

which is the policy and hospital in occupied east jerusalem to morrow. he will not be accompanied by israeli official, something that these rates had requested. this is something will so of the of the hospital said no tooth. and a reporter ost joe biden. well, is this, does this represent a change? because of course, israel claimed sovereignty over east jerusalem. it is internationally recognized by the un as occupied. so basically at biden immediately said, no, this doesn't recreate, represent a change of my administration recognizing jerusalem as the capital of israel. so this is something that the palestinians probably will take issue with. perhaps mahmoud abbas will raise it tomorrow as they briefly meet in bethlehem. before joe biden takes off directly, he made a point again to highlight this as real progress to fly directly as the 1st you as president from tennessee, from israel to jetta in saudi arabia. stephanie, one gets the impression that certainly one section of the community who are not going to be happy about the way that this has gone on will be the palestinians.

there's been very little reference. although van, what you have talked about to the situation between israel and palestine, this visit isn't about the palestinians role, but i think even the americans have stipulated and made it very clear. they used the same words and language has been used for a long time. perhaps not with the trump administration, that is the only way forward is a 2 state solution present. biden bay, i did make reference in the press conference. he said, equal rights for all he mentioned equal freedom of movement for all that i think were very a very, very long way away from seeing those things become a reality. there will be economic incentives to morrow, a package we expect around a $100000000.00 by the americans pledged to palestinians halls, hospitals in occupied, his truce. they've awesome of the gulf states to equal that a that amount to hospitals occupied. he's jerusalem, but he doesn't bring anything to the table diplomatically. also, you're mentioning,

you know, things like the breakdown, entrust when it comes to the killing, particularly of our colleagues. shitty and ab laughlin as well. the america pressurizing, the palestinians to hand over the bullet. they wanted to put this to bed ahead of this meeting. they then said, well, israel did investigate the bullets, something to palestinians, aussie americans not to allow it was found inconclusive. the americans then said, well, it looks like the israelis did do it, but not on purpose. and these are tragic circumstances, no calls for accountability, which is something that the family maintains wants and demands. so yes, i don't think these are great relations at the moment, certainly. and i don't think the policy and are expecting anything from joe biden when he does meet with president mahmoud abbas tomorrow in bethlehem. stephanie, thank you very much. indeed. stephanie decker, bringing up to date from west jerusalem, or johnny bernard here. and ohio is a white house correspondent, kimberley colquit. i'm the president biden had made a point of saying that he was the u. s. would continue to support israel to defend itself. is there anything there that give us any indication whether or not that's a change in policy? and no, in fact, this is a continuation of

a long standing policy when it comes to defending israel in the united states financing it. in fact, i went and looked at some the numbers and in fact to israel is the largest recipient of military assistance by the united states. since world war 2, going back to the year, 1949, only egypt, and then i've gamma stan would come close in terms of those numbers. in fact, to the u. s. president talked about the most recent contributions that the united states has given in terms of military aid to israel, and that included monies that were spent. well, he was vice president under the obama administration and allocation about $38000000000.00 that was granted over 10 years. the $3800000000.00 per year, and then another $1000000000.00. well, he was president. so a,

in terms of the commitment, what is significant? because it's not the white house that hands out this money. it's actually the u. s . congress. and if you've been following american politics for any time, you know, the republicans and democrats don't get along in the u. s. congress, for the most part. it's a divided nation, but the one thing they get along on and one thing that they do agree on for the most part is supporting israel added security. and so for the most part, this is usually a bit of a blank check. and so this is something that is agreed on year after year, and so what it appears to be, and as i looked at these numbers, is that this funding will continue, at least in terms of the legislation, right up until 2028. so the defense of israel is iron clad, if you will, and specifically when it comes to what to legislator see as the threat of iran in the region. and that specifically, that is something that was agreed upon today in this declaration that was signed by these 2 leaders, both the caretaker prime minister of israel, as well as joe biden,

the u. s. president, that they believe that there is a destabilizing presence of iran. and that's why the u. s. congress is continuing to fight the defense of israel through the us taxpayers funding. you're kimberly, you referred to the, to the fact there that, that usually anything to do with us is really relations place well in the united states. but how is all of this playing out with us voters at the moment, given the fact that they're facing a lot of domestic issues? well, bad news for joe biden and all of this is that he's not generating a lot of positive headlines back in the united states as a result of this tour. and that's not. * what a president, typically watts you want to get some good news headlines you want to be leading the evening news cats with something that you've accomplished on a. c trip such as this and a rate. now what most americans are focusing on are some of what we call the

kitchen table issues. namely, a how to pay the bills, how to pay your rent, how to pay your mortgage, how to put food on the table and how to pay your energy bills, fill up the fuel in your vehicle, for example. and when it comes to those issues, americans are paying record high prices. inflation is soaring in the united states, yet again, record high some 41 year highs. and this is what americans are focusing on. and that's a problem for joe biden, especially heading into congressional elections, which will be in november. it seems like there's a lot of time, but in the political world, it's not a lot of time. and the reason this is a problem for joe biden. if his democratic party does not win control of the house of representatives and the senate, it means his legislative agenda will essentially be dead in the water and he's a lame duck president for the remainder of his term. kennedy for now. thank you very much indeed. that's our white house correspondent. kimberly hall could. we're joining me now here on saturday. so just either senior political analyst or more one brochure. i want to come back to something that stephanie referred to in when

we were talking to her earlier. the issue of schumann, right? so obviously jewel buttons heading to saudi arabia. the question during the press conference was raised with regard to human rights and the, the human rights record of saudi arabian, whether or not that was going to be an issue. when joe biden was there, what's your analysis analysis of the way that joe biden has been dealing with? that because my impression was he was pretty anxious to get to move on from that subject and talk about something entirely different. yes, and i think he made it clear that ah, america's interest come 1st? not so with the human rights. and i think that makes sense for superpower. and it makes sense for the united states, because it has always used the question of human rights. even though, yes, it does have and human rights agenda, and i think american values can withstand that. and would like to support that, but not when it's not in the u. s. interests. when it's in u. s. interest, it's great to speak with your mom, right. when it's not, for example, in israel,

what a sin in human rights. but a seniors from the jordan river to the sea are being violated every day for the last 50 years with us 75 years. that's ok because is right is on ally. that's why this visit becomes quite successful days, right? quite predictable, useless, but successful. however, the visit to saudi arabia was become controversial, becomes more of a question for the american public because american media is not asking the question. what about a student in human rights? they don't ask that question. what about israel nuclear power? they don't ask that question. they asked by soldiers because it's more convenient for the american media for the american administration. and because the american musician willoughby just like trumpeted by then we'll use the human rights question in order to be like me. joe biden. and his speech said it was, he thought it was

a mistake for the us to have walked away for the level of in, for an influence that has had in the region. and he didn't want to create a vacuum for countries like china and russia to be able to step. and do you think that there's any indication that by saying that there is maybe a change in foreign policy, or do you think that this is simply an acknowledgment of what he would like the situation to be, or there's absolutely change. i think biden is about to support traditional allies, notably is earned. so jarivia, egypt, and others, u. e, and so on. in this new cold war in the region that the united states in visions taking place, been taken place for a number of years were china. russia are implicated at least on the side of syria and iran, but for china, throughout the gulf region and elsewhere, were chinese influences growing rapidly, exponentially why the united states is actually seeing its own or influence

shrinking. so by there wants to change it, but there's a big question that by the did not answer. how was in returning to the traditional alliances and the so called stability and pragmatism will change anything from the disastrous last 50 or 60 years. how did, how does that return to the past that what i mean, what does my didn't wanna do mic america for policy? great. again, why i thought it was not so great in the past. it led to all the disaster that we've seen in them, at least, if american policy was so grit of successful american interest would have been served. and regional stability and peace would have been served at look at the region and look at the american interests. they're not being served, envisioned by those policies. i think american policies will need to be less about selling arms, less about military alliances and more about peace processes. and in why is mine and talking more about confronting go on and less about talking about resolving the question of palestine. why is he talking more about building new or security,

elijah and the gulf instead of finding new ways to resolve the question? would you one, i think that's the question we're freshman. i want to ask you about something that that was, that happened on was on the sidelines of this visit that hadn't been as far as i'm aware on the scheduled, on certainly on the, the press briefings and so on, which was a, i can a virtual meeting that was held between israel and the united states, the united arab emirates and, and in and india as well. no, that seemed to kind of come out of nowhere. what was your take on that? so this is the thing, right. when you watch a by them in israel, you just roll your eyes like, oh, i will to go here there, go again, you know, love and support and on, so on, so forth. but when you look at this meeting, when i 1st heard of, i did, i say, you know, it's kind of a head scratching business here in your head turning like what, what, what is this all about? not you could probably guess a number of possibilities. one america, not happy with india because india would not pick up position on russia or russia's

war and ukraine. in fact, india continues to be part of brick, sir, and so, so forth. of course, the nicest or source a good number of others like turkey, like is there, like there you eat a lot of that traditional ice would not support to fully of the united states in ukraine. so i think they would like to bring india back to the fold by talk by bringing the emeralds in. so in case india needs more in the g o u acre silva. but of course, india's problem is more about food and grain and source of which comes from ukraine or russia, notably russia. so it is not very helpful there besides russia. good. so india oil at that she price. so but why israel, why israel and the emberts and india? quite bizarre. so are we still talking about the middle east near to and bringing in the end to that? that would be quite an escalation because india then we'll talk about backs then in the middle there, another nuclear power i want to bring in the under the goth security. because india, if i remember correctly, one of its strategic doctors in the past 56 years, was up by that it wants to become a gulf bower. that's it. that's

a real escalation. if you can have the chinese, the russians, the iranians say for example, on the one side, and you're going to have the indians to the americans. these railey is along the other side. we're talking about global war here. we're not talking about global peace. and just look at that meeting as connectivity take place. the next one of a couple of days me to the turks, the iranians on the russians. not there call it some sort of a continuation of the astronaut talks. but again, you have these strategic juxtaposition that are happening in the region that could only lead to escalation an unintended consequences if such logic of military alliances or bringing global powers like in the ally china like russia. and of course is on the embers and the soldiers and everyone else. this is going to become a power key. what sweet is this the doing is resolving the nuclear issue. what in iran,

in israel resolving regional issues in terms of young man c. busy are and palestine not building more military alliances and building more walls in the region. bowen, as always, thank you very much indeed for like i'm picking all of this. i understand is complex and i'm grateful to you. thank you very much indeed. flamer, i had on the news i including video from the holes of texas high school, emerges, showing the delayed police response during unearth shooting plus ah, pacific island leaders send a note of warning. we cannot confront the climate emergency on the road. and in sport, we're going to explain why this goal is so significant for zambia. ah, shlang has presidents flown to singapore from the mouldy scotto by a raj? a pac sir promised to formerly resign after fleeing the country on weapons safe

protests was. want him to step aside along with the prime minister and acting president o'neill wickland, singer a curfews in place after thousands took to the streets of the capital, colombo and stormed government buildings. on the mount, michelle fernandez is joining us now from colombo. first of all, what do we know about where president go to by elijah packs is well, after going to the more lives he has arrived in singapore, we have got a reports that are sources in singapore have confirmed that present go to bed. roger boxer arrived in the country on a private visit. now we had been expecting the entire country was expecting that he would submit that resignation that he had indicated he would do on the 13th of july . but yesterday came and went and we are still waiting a day later. now in terms of the speaker, ah,

he is the sort of conduit for all communications from the president and the speaker had previously indicated that the president had assured him that that resignation letter would be forthcoming. so that's what we're hearing. obviously, singapore is visa on arrival and in terms of logistics for the president to actually fly into a country or is a little bit, i'm sort of easier. let's say that way. because there had been reports that are unconfirmed, no official sort of indications yet, but that there had been some sort of countries that he had applied to that had refused. i'm sort of him access to those countries. so potentially, or possibly, according to some analysts and observers, i cinnapool might not be his final destination, but potentially present gotta be roger pucks have might be looking towards

a final destination a, where he feels safe or particularly in terms of a possible prosecution or action against him once he puts down that cloak of presidential immunity, as i mentioned before, mon albert, the curfew was in play spare after the extraordinary scenes of protest that we saw over the last couple of days or so. i know he's been driving around the columbo to get an idea of what's going on, talk to us about what things are like there today is a relatively, almost a calm day i would say compared to the chaos that we saw unfolding in multiple locations. yesterday. i was a near parliament, things are relatively quite dead. there are sort of a big barricades, obviously preventing people protested from accessing parliament. but in terms of the presidential secretariat,

the mean sort of gates are closed. now we had earlier in the day, the protested kind of withdrawing from the building. and while we were passing the 2nd, the presidential palace, we did see a number of buses of commanders of special task force commanders being deployed in the vicinity. and now, i mean, i'm here outside the presidential secretariat. this building is still sort of an open building in terms of visitors, of, in terms of the protested. but they have been some concerns because for a few hours now, there have been a number of bosses over 10 or 11 buses that have come and dropped off army and navy personnel, a, some of these personnel in riot gear with gas masks. there were navy personnel wielding battens as they lined up when they got off the buses. so that is somewhat a concern. to other developments today that had been a hearing in supreme court when a president my, the former prison mind,

roger boxer, another brother basil roger fox and the form of financing a g. a had agreed not to leave the country until tomorrow up and the army also being given powers to use force to protect property and life. so that's where things stand today. well, thank you very much. indeed. that's michelle fernandez, bringing subject from colombo, twitters down in many parts of the world. the social media platforms of the major outage in the u. s. and in europe, with thousands of users unable to access the site, it's affected the company's website. it's app and dashboard platforms like tweet deck is the 1st outage in almost 6 months for twitter which was hit by what it called a technical bug. twice in a week in february. libby as oil, she vis refusing to accept the government's decision to sac him as arguments heat up over which of the countries to administrations should have access to oil revenue . libby as national oil corporation chairman must have a son, ala says,

tripoli based prime minister abdul hamid the babies mandates to govern has expired . therefore, ending his authority to dismiss him. the baby, a named a new board of directors including a new chairman on wednesday. now marolla do, i'm of his mina, dis, outdated government has been a caretaker government since october 2021. parliament withdrew its confidence vote and it became nothing but a caretaker government. it's political agreement ended on june 22. meaning this is an expired government and there is a 2nd government appointed by parliament. therefore, i say to him, you are what you are. you are just sitting around in a fait accompli limit. well, this is all pretty complex. so let's take a look at the ro brewing about the national oil corporation and what impact this may have on exports prime minister. i know how the baby is trying to get rid of. most of the sonata who's backed by the west. he says, the prime minister does not have the authority to force them out, because the prime minister's mandate has expired. the baby wants to appoint for hot

bang data. he was governor of the central bank under more mcduffie and daughter is an ally of war load. holly for half duck who supported by the to brook based parliament in eastern libya. the baby is accused of politicizing oil to stay in power forces allied with the war lord, her being blockading oil facilities since mid april, causing exports to drop by almost half romantic train has more from the libyan city of miss rata. linda is struggling at the moment. living conditions have been deteriorating since the eastern parliament appointed a parallel government in the east. and we saw that we saw that with protests in the beginning of this month. also calling for the dissolving of the legislative houses, the parliament in the east, the high council state in the east, and the dismantlement of both government. so to be with the government, which is based on tripoli and fetching,

besides the government based in the national oil corporation for the most part to the years of conflict and political division and libya has been able to stay out of politics. they've been able to serve in all all across the country, but now we're seeing the national oil corporation politicize. why the politically lead here in libya. so this came after reports unconfirmed reports that a senior adviser to have need to be met with to have her son in the us, e and a and, and what the reports are suggesting is that they came to an agreement that if most of us on our law was replaced with been good then after would stop the oil blockade and stop and stop supporting the cheapest government in the east, leaving up having to be in power. but what we saw yesterday was most of us and i

love the current head of the national incorporation. just going on a complete ran you know, telling, telling debate that he has no authority to replace them. and that actually might hold up hey, denise government has won the confidence vote in the upper house despite a boy called to buy the populace 5 star movement. the anti establishment party doesn't approve of proposed aid package to help with rising living costs of our fears. this refusal to take part in the vote could cause the government to collapse . a prolonged heat wave has caused droughts and parts of italy and spain. natasha claim reports from the northwest to the south. spaniards are sweltering in the an to lucy. our region, the mercury sword to 45.6 degrees celsius on wednesday, the government is warning people to be cautious and avoid going outdoors unless absolutely necessary. maybe like

a company that i was with so much heat. people don't leave their home still early. so there are no customers until later in the day. this is a 2nd heat wave in western europe. in a matter of weeks. forest fires are burning near the border with portugal and north west of madrid, where hundreds of residents have had to leave their homes. france and portugal, or also battling wildfires, and at least one person has died. there is a drought in spain. water reserves have shrunk more than 20 percent this year. it's causality beside ourselves. but how we going to wind up either we see a lack of water or a desert and why it's not so much for us, but for our children and grandchildren when the conditions have made it impossible for barley and weak farmers to take full advantage of the rising cost of cereals and that, and then by what am both england level fear, there would be a loss of 30 to 40 percent. and in some areas of the province of leider,

we're talking about 607080 percent loss meteorologist. say climate change is making both drought and heat waves. more frequent spaniards aren't expected to get much relief from the high temperatures until sunday. natasha n a. l d 05 or more in the weather. his rob. you may not be surprised to hit the hottest place in europe, was he nigh barrier is actually this place. he declaimed just in land. 46.3 that splashed its old record by over degrees is a new record, and it was hotter than what is the usual office space in europe, which is down in the south. spain. that may well be a new record, but it still slightly lower than what happened in virtual. as you know, the bad news from this part from be hard to bear is to find his spot, been 5 married, and put the algarve on in central portion. this is in central portugal. the same could be said in parts of southwest, in france as report of foreign simultaneously in greece. and this heat wave isn't

going to endo, although there is clyde off the coast of portugal, which is knocked temps back a little bit in lisbon for example. and might produce a shower or 2. it doesn't really do very much. it is not in the full cost to do anything else either. now we continue with the heat forecast to see, for example, friday and the heat is spreading out through france and towards that, or in fact, even towards repeating itself. if you like in southern england, this doesn't look too extreme in london at 27 nor paris at 30. but let's let me take london as an example of next few days. we reach 37 or more by tuesday still hadn't, i'll just set up a breakthrough in getting going out of ukraine's ports even as heavy russians shelling continues in the east. i later in sports. yeah, i was gonna believe had this pot finished up. they open championship ah

ah ah. safer than he'd been home and then he international anti corruption excellence award boat. now for your hero.

ah ah, i want to know to 0 mind over top stories this out. put us as her like are continue to demand the resignation of president, go to buy a roger pock, such was flown to singapore from them all these. they also want the prime minister and acting president ronald wickham, singer to step aside. libby is all chiefs refusing to accept the prime minister's decision to suck him? the thing is mandate to govern, has expired. the tripoli based prime minister abdul hamid at the bay, but named a new board of directors including a new chairman on wednesday. he was president joe biden and israeli prime as a yard la pete have signed a non binding declaration to prevent iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. biden

also restated the u. s. position on a 2 state solution for israel and palestine. also the can, you knew were, were toward a last year negotiated peace between the state of israel and the palestinian people . israel must remain an independent democratic jewish state, the ultimate guarantee and guarantor of security of the jewish people. not only israel, but the entire world. i believe that to my core, the best way to achieve that remains a 2 state solution for 2 people. both amolla deep and ancient richness land. let me side by side in peace and security. you know, let speak to ali abernet, mom. he's one of the co founders of attic tronic into father website, and he's also author of the battle for justice in palestine. he joins us live by skype from chicago. very good to have you with this. so the bureau president joe

biden, they're saying that the u. s. position on a 2 state solution for israel and palestine hadn't changed. do you think palestinians will be convinced by that? ah, only if you look to decades and decades of american declarations and think this one has any more weight. and of course, of course not. i mean the truth of what biden said, i think the only true thing he said there was his could commitment to maintain israel as a so called jewish state, which means the permanent denial of palestinian rights. it's also very notable that joe biden believes that millions of american jews are not safe in the united states. and the only guarantee for their safety is the foreign settler colony that only exists by virtue of persecuting dis possessing and killing palestinian. so

a very perverse ideology. which the united states has been advancing for decades by giving israel the weapons to kill palestinians and steal and colonized their land. so no change whatsoever from joe biden. donald trump, barack obama, and so on. was there anything in the run up to this trip that would have given palestinians any sort of encouragement or hope that there might have been announcements with regards to the palestinian situation? absolutely nothing. of course, the purpose of jo biden's trip to the region was to show up a crumbling us hedge him a hedge, a monic order. and in particular to shore up the anti palestinian and anti iran alliance lead to by the united states, with israel at call. and of course now includes various anti palestinian arab

dictatorships which are in the pockets of israel in the united states. that was the purpose of his visits. and it was an extremely dangerous visit. and the sense that he came down to israeli bullying to escalate the rhetoric can threaten war with iran. so it's, it's really was a very bad visit for everyone in the region and shows just how dangerous the united states is for the peace and security of the people of that region. and that of course, includes palestinians in the press conference that was held after about an hour or so ago. the president was asked about the human rights record of saudi arabia. and whether or not he would address that. he has also in the past, been asked about the human rights records, but of course, with in israel as well,

particularly with regards to the killing of shooting blackledge. it is a correspondent, interesting that he appeared to not spend a great deal of time on that subject. concentrating more on what he was hoping to achieve inside of a bill. what message do you think that sends? well, it's very clear, joe biden's administration since the murder of shipping off claire on may 11th, has been doing its utmost to help israel cover up this crime. so it would have been very surprising if joe biden was suddenly to make you turn and pretend to care about justice, but should be in a ball claire's family. just in the past. you know, the july 4th statement that the u. s. secretary blinkin made trying to cover up shoddy, barclays murder back fire, didn't. we've seen many senior senators in the united states,

surprisingly demanding be a real us criminal investigation led by the f b. i. and we've also seen the demands from sharina off las family. but joe biden is absolutely determined to help israel cover up this crime. he was also during his visit, asked about the reality of israeli apartheid, and he denied that as well. so we have to understand that joe biden has a very deep lifelong commitment to keeping palestinian, subjugated on the israeli occupation settler colonialism in apartheid when it comes to saudi arabia. it's interesting that the u. s. media, a very interested in the human rights record of saudi arabia while saying almost nothing about israel's crimes against palestinians. that said, of course, we remember that joe biden, during his campaign, promised to make saudi arabia

a pariah over the murder and dismemberment of general. cuz she has gone back on that, of course, he continues to sell weapons to the saudi regime to allow it to continue to slaughter many civilians including children. and this is the horror and bloodshed that the united states has visited all the people of the region and indeed the world ever since world war 2. and we can only hope that the continued decline of the united states is a global hedge of men will finally finally free people of the region from this continuing horror they ab nima. we appreciate your thoughts as always. thank you very much indeed for your time. you're most welcome and joe biden will visit the occupied was bank on friday, where some groups are calling for protests. money want the us president to demand accountability for israel's killing of all, just get

a journalist shooting of walker and mate, john home and reports from occupied east of islam. this is the grades of serene abu accolade, the palestinian american journalist, who worked for out 0. this cemetery was full of people for her funeral. this may, after she was shot in the occupied west bank. ah, she was famous already, but for a lot of palestinians had there in body. but they lived through the possibility that they could be killed by israeli forces with little follow up for accountability. and now that's become a phone issue for president biden. as he visits the region and his administration launched an investigation into a death. but concluded that even though the bullet was likely fired by the israeli military, it was without intention to kill her. now, abu at cleese families have a whitewash. she was wearing a blue helmet and best mart press when she was shot. they've asked to meet president biden on this trip where those concerns the latest is that that's not

very good news. but for peace, we still live a long way to go. if a deal is finally done, it's an important step in trying to alleviate the global food crisis. but un officials ward that could take many months with many ships having to transport the backlog of grain. that's trapped in ukraine. the ripple effects of a crisis like this can take a very long time. it is a pacific island nation's at risk from wising sea levels and extreme weather, urging immediate global action on climate change. they agreed on a joint strategy to avoid worst case scenarios on the 3rd day of the pacific islands forum summit in fiji capital suva, china's growing influence in the regions been another key topic when he has more from the summit. in suva, we've seen the communicate that's been released at the end of this forum this week . there wasn't a lot of detail and they are in terms of groundbreaking announcements, but a lot of talk, of course, about climate change about their wish,

their desires. in fact, the demands really for the rest of the world to do a lot more when it comes to climate change. because many countries in this region are feeling the effects already from severe storms. and of course, rising sea level. so that certainly was a theme that came out throughout this specific island for him. in the us, state of virginia, about 40 people are unaccounted for. after a severe storm struck, the area, search and rescue efforts are ongoing, and buchanan county cars were swept away in flood waters and many homes have been damaged. a video from inside the texas school for a mass shooting to place in may, has been released. it appears to show a slow police response and it's spot anger among the victims, families. now survivors of marcia, the u. s. capital calling for more gun control legislation. particle hang reports. yeah, a march on capitol hill, demanding the guns that killed their loved ones are ban flores,

his heiress is here. she wants you to remember her daughter jackie killed at her school in you've all the texas keisha sassy. she sometimes had that little attitude that you know, she, if she knew she believed in something that she was going to fight for. she can now see for herself how police responded to her daughter being shot. media outlets releasing 4 minutes of security camera footage. they edited out the sounds of the children screaming you can clearly see police arrived. 2 minutes after the shooting started, a few approached the classroom door, but run away less than a minute later, after shots are fired. as the minutes ticked by the shooting continued, the police stand and watch one hand sanitizer. eventually,

a small army of police arrived with bulletproof shield body armor, an automatic weapon, the russian, and killed the gunman. after 75 minutes of waiting, one of the way the videotape is going to change the debate is republicans aftermath shooting often say what's needed for a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. that was obviously not the case. and you've all day says ours is enraged. the world can see this video before she could. she doesn't know that she'll ever watch it. but she will live with the unbearable question of what her daughter was experiencing for the 75 minute shot. but alive for the i don't know. she was shot. i think it was at the beginning, but she survived 77 minutes. she didn't tie up. she died at the so i don't know. i don't

know. i i don't know, but there's a possibility if they have reached that room my daughter might have, might have survived along with there's quite a bit of others that had non threatening injuries and just bled to death. there is one more thing she would like the world to know about her 9 year old little girl, jackie had a heart of gold. she was always looking to help somebody else thought of others before herself. a quality, apparently not on display. pinnacle hain, al jazeera washington patients reminding their government steps done because of runaway inflation and unchecked gang violence and fuel shortages. threatening the delivery of humanitarian aid that many haitians depend on for survival, z, besotted reports. haiti is sliding deeper into chaos. the protesters have taken to the streets after dozens of people were killed in

a week of gang violence, insecurity and unrest. adding to a spiraling economy that is never completely recovered from a devastating earthquake in 2010. not only that situation is critical because we are facing on history and hunger or children can no longer go to school in the government is useless there. monday to departure, it has to go. protesters blamed the government for the fuel crisis every time they want to raise fuel prices. they claim there's a shortage. it's not true. there is still, there's no need to call people such pain if they are determined to increase prices . we will set the country on fire, criminal gangs, run the streets with impunity, police to week to stop them. but this week, anger and a loss of public trust outweighed the fears of kidnapping robbery, injury, and death. every one must come together to revolt. children can talk on the streets

of potent prank. we're tiny, we can't live like this in more. let's rise up. it's difficult, there's no way to live there bullets flying everywhere inside the house. we aren't safe who can't go outside. aid groups are struggling to provide medical care to victims of stray bullets and knife attacks. the hallmarks of gang violence, but fighting hunger is perhaps their biggest challenge. he has one people in emergencies and just for god, what are the people that need her services? and if we're not able to deliver urgent assistance, a very rears to that. so we're very worried about that. haitians have been fleeing crushing poverty for generations many to the neighboring dominican republic, or the united states. as living conditions fail to improve the number of people making perilous journeys in search of food and safety. is likely to increase. zane

bas ravi al jazeera sports, coming up with janet mckinney actually from the womans zeroes is the defending champions. get there 1st when of the tournament? ah. with

with full lou. ah. ah, jim is here with the sport be open championship is underway. it certainly is robin watts, a fuss round from american cameron young. on his open debut. well, number 32, made 8 buddies and didn't drop a shot around st. andrews to take the club house lead at 8 on the paw. will be hard

pushed it to see a better puts than this one from englishman, ian poto. he had a chance for ego from around a 35 meters at the pa, for night pole. and he sung kits while talking of impressive. it was a great 1st major appearance for another english gulf of barclay brown, the 21 year old amateur finishing for under palm. i. otherwise, a lot of interest in how a tiger woods gets on. he. he's off in a matter of minutes and will be his return to the majors often missing the us opened last month. tigers, of course, a 3 time champion of the open, twice and hundreds. and what number 3? john? rom, he gets under way. at $1410.00 gmc, he finished 3rd last year. meeting on the trial of american basket will stop brittany griner, has it resumed in russia? she's facing drug charges. i could see her sentenced up to 10 years in prison to time and pick champion was detained at moscow airport in february, just days before russia invaded ukraine last week,

trying to acknowledged her guilt. but the night she had intentionally broken the law. rational authorities claim she was carrying vate, cartridges containing cannabis oil, a substance illegal in the country. us officials say the 31 year old has been wrongfully held, and should be immediately returned to the united states. of a more or less one now joined by law professor michael mccann. michael, thanks for your time. can you explain why this child is continuing off that she accepted guilt church? and so as you noted, she acknowledged guilds in a hearing, which is different from pleading guilty. and the basic gist of it is that she is saying, i acknowledge that i made this mistake. but she has argued that she didn't intend to break russian law. in reality, she is acknowledging that she broke the law by doing that so the judge will still have to find her guilty and then she'll be sentenced. ok, do you think the u. s. government has done enough to help griner i think the us

government has done what it can. i know there's some criticism that they haven't facilitated conversations between griner and her wives, but i know that the government, the us government is very limited. what it can do. a griner is part, is detained in russia. the government u. s. government doesn't have the capacity to do much more than offer support that support could end up being important. should grinder eventually be exchanged for another prisoner. but i think the reality is that it's hard for the us government to do much in this particular situation. and michael, from the russian perspective, is this whole situation more about politics than the alleged crime? well, i think that's the criticism is that this, this alleged crime committee, at least in the u. s. would seem a fairly, i don't want to say harmless, but certainly doesn't, not one that would warrant a prison sentence of 5 to 10 years. if in fact, she broke the law because she rushed to go to the airport,

which i think many people can, can sort of empathize with a she would have broken the law, but maybe not in such a way that she would deserve to spend. and potentially a decade behind bars. so there is a political element, of course, as a political and because it involves the u. s. and russia, a given the strain relations between those countries, not only involving the ukraine, but other topics. so there is definitely a political element to it though in a more narrow light. if she broke the law she did break the law. and how do you see this ultimately playing out? for greiner? i think ultimately shall return home as part of a prisoner exchange. it sounds like the us government's interested in doing that. it sounds like the russian government is interested in that sort of transaction. so most likely she will return home. but i think the key question is, how long will she be behind bars? is this a matter of weeks, months, years? obviously we all hope is the matter of days or weeks, but it does take a while. it see games for these exchanges to take place. well,

law professor michael mcconnell, thank you very much for your insight into the case. thank you. dan, be qualified for the women's world cup for the 1st time. and this is how they did it there. go keep revolt. hazel natalie pushed away this spot, kick to be kind of a full c one penalties in the quarter finals at the women's africa cup of nations. and clear to see had just thought that meant to the play as great celebrations that south africa was seen as a wait in the lawful morocco will also play next year as well. coughing, australia, and new zealand. for the 1st time they sailed bethought for the 2 and went over botswana in wednesdays of africa, cup of nations with the final the tournament host faced the camry or nigeria in the semi defending champions netherlands picks up their 1st when at this year's women's years. but only just, they were pushed all the way by portugal who came back from to go down to draw a level in the 2nd half. but then along came a danny out vander don't,
