yes ma'am. ma is rolling john to execute democracy act of his carrying out the 1st set death sentences and decades. ah. other mon, calling the selves there alive from de, also coming up protests in the philippines ahead of a state of the nation, addressed by the countries, the president, the largest active wall fight in the us, spreads rapidly. ne yosemite national park, forcing thousands to flee the homes, and a pilgrimage of penance. pope frances rugs and candidates who apologized. the church is wrong in running indigenous ones. ah, man mas jones has executed at full prisoners. among them is a former legislator from ang, century keys, party, and a pro democracy act receives the 1st death sentence is carried out. in decades. the

judge has sentence dozens of antique who activists to death. his pots was cracked down on descent of the season bow last year. now tony cheng joins us live up from bangkok. tony just bring us up to date. what more details were merging about these executions? well, i think this is something of a surprise. these men had all been sentenced in close door trials. in january, the cases had gone through appeal in june. the pills had been turned down. but i think this was thought to be a threat. which memos, military genta was going to keep hanging over these men and those others have been charged with political crimes. nonetheless, memos, last recorded execution was in 1989. i think many people assumed that it will be a threat, kept very much in the bag. that said, the announcement came this morning in state media. the 1st thing it announced the

foreman had been executed very few details. it said the executions had happened in prison, not specifying which one, although i think the sumption as it was insane jail in yangon were political prisoners, the captain. these 4 men had been but it's a very big step to take 2 of these were very high profile to this co. jimmy had been very active in the 1990 and spent more than the decade in jail during protesting against military government in those days. and had been very much an advocate for a peaceful change in recent years. certainly under the government of on some sushi pure a. tor was a famous, a hip hop artist actually who emerged in 2012 and under sensitive swept to pe. he had been an m p. he was arrested in 2021 that protesting against the military coup . all 4 men had been charged with counter terrors under counter

terrorism laws, which the government said had led to the den so many people. but hadn't been very specific again that charles had taken place behind closed doors. there are several tens of people have been charged on the similar laws. it's not clear this stage whether we're seeing a pattern emerged. but i think the fact that mammals, military genta has taken the step particularly as it's been pressed in recent months by countries in the region and around the world to try and find a more conciliatory approach to the protest. as who protested the 2020 one's military cou. i think this is a various big step in the opposite direction. while tony, you began this by saying that it came as a surprise it did, like you said, the last set of executions that we know about what? in 1989 is this the military sending a message to the international community that they can do? what they want, or is this more domestic?

i think her, i think it's a bit of both are as i said, you know, that the region i think has been very keen to, to engage the military john. so without being seen to do so. so we know that countries like cambodia, which is currently the chair of asha and thailand her send sort of informal approaches to the generals in yankton yan gone and naperville to try and engage them. but i, i think they're also very aware of the fact that there is an awful lot of a wider international opposition, particularly in the west to the military q to the actions of the military genta in cracking down since that military coon and what they've had to do to enforce their control across the country. that said, what we've seen inside the country is the exact opposite. the military seem to be cracking down with a level of brutality that i think has surprised many people. but now seems to be continuing and not just in the border areas where there are traditionally been

fighting for, for decades. but really now in the, in the myanmar heartlands were in the past, the military has had a lot of support. so i think this is a very clear indication of the fact that they are not going to cut, tolerate on going protests that said, those protest continue, almost daily. even over the last weekend we've seen little pop up. gangs of protest is on the streets all across the country. it remains to be seen whether we'll see any protests explicitly today. but i was speaking to people inside miramar, her expecting flash mobs to hit the streets of yangon and the other major cities to make their voice heard, i think and this will be something that may well spark them up to increase the level of protest. tony sharing their low reporting live from bangkok. thank you, raj, ukraine's pushing ahead with efforts to restock grain exports despite missile strikes on his biggest port on saturday. russia has admitted a launch the attack on odessa saying it was trying to hit military targets. the

rather than an apology is what was needed. my dad was 6 years old when he went to residential school. and i have a 8 year old daughter. and i look at her and think how devastating it would be to be separated from my, my child at that age, or at any age really. and there really is no way finding through this. it's been a difficult journey for many and it's triggering it deeply, deeply traumatized thing. catholic church was the biggest church that was partaking, and all the reading of the residential schools. and they were the only school that didn't pay money. that was promised to survivors. there are a large number of records that have yet to be released when it comes to abuse claim . and this puts a big barrier in the way of the healing for many survivors who were abused in residential school. and i mean,

i understand why there is no admitting that guilt because it would open them a lot per liability and international war crimes. essentially, i understand a lot of the legal complexities that come with looking at residential school as an active genocide. an apology for me is never going to be enough because how do you apologize for genocide if you can even admit they have actually occurred? brazil's president drive also, norah has re as launched his reelection campaign and he faces an uphill battle, his trailing the poles beyond his main rival, left his former president louis de silver luna. this is robert bolton or i was criticized for his handling and current of ours outbreak, which so brazil have the 2nd highest. ethel monica janek here, but now reports from rio de janeiro ah, thousands of supporters lined up in front of this gym next to rio de janeiro iconic

construction. they've shown us pictures in the factory of the modules. so this is going to happen. they won't of, of, based on the moon by the end of this decade. but there is now a realistic possibility that a chinese woman or a chinese man could be the next person to set foot on the moon. china has been excluded from the international space station since 2011. when the u. s. ban nasa from working with it that's only heightened beijing's desire to establish the station of its own law. and as china continues to reach for the stars, there's no telling what else it space program might achieve in the decades to come into marlin al jazeera ah other monk on that. with the headlines on al jazeera.
