there'll be many who continue his mission. i want the little ha abraham, they think they kill the, brought him, but there are hundreds if he brought him that there are 1000000 of brian die. every palestinian is abraham, who is rarely military says it surrounded abraham of lucy's home. and after an exchange of gunfire, use shoulder launch missiles against the building. 2 others were killed in the operation or the 60 people reported injured. john holman, has more not from nobliss. you can see that there is a crowd of people, young men who come to the house here and not listening to pipe west, where even i don't know who was killed by breaking up about you can see the bullet hole in the roof. there was a fire fight that lasted from 5 in the morning to 3 or 4 hours in which he was eventually hold up in this building. and then killed, spoke to an eye witness. he said, eventually to the body just,

just next to where i'm standing. so also in this by moving 60 people were injured and even him i don't know, boucher wasn't the only person who died. another member of the group died here with him. another young member of the group which is the access to the brigade now is ready for. she said that they went off to him because he had fired civilians and soldiers, especially those heading to joseph to which i think it sites i moved in from christians, which is quite close to him here. and novelist he is seeing as a fight that was fighting the game. what people see as oppression against the highest of the way. and as such, procession here and the morning for him is being felt not just him now, but it's been in other towns like hebron ramallah in which shots the rules are

shutting here in the west. well, let's take a closer look at the past 100 resistance movement in the occupied territories. alexa brigades is an armed group that emerged during the 2nd intifada. it's splintered from fata and that times operate alongside is i'm g hut in that this and jeanine. there are numerous palestinian groups that are resisting israel's illegal occupation. allison in liberation organization and he hello was formed in the sixty's rates as an umbrella group of several political factions and armed groups. it excludes group such as my son is america jihad in garza. you have opposed all forms of go see ations with israel, a mass summit, you had the acts of martyrs brigades, among others, cooperated militarily and agree that armed resistance to the occupation is the only way to end it and to achieve palestinian self determination. maria barger. t at the

scene at palestine correspondent her from otherwise news website. she joins us live from her mother. thanks for joining us here. now, to what extent is there genuine support for the alexa martyrs brigades? i think we have a little technical problem there. you may have muted your microphone, not sure if you can try and unmute that to see if we can still speak to. you want to try that again. if you cannot hear me now, i'll ask that question again to to what extent is there genuine support for the alex, a martyrs brigades, do you think? i think you're framing the question wrong. the support isn't for alex martyrs brigade, in specific, prior to that you had the palestinian islamic jihad and an armed coalition come out

of jeanine during the onslaught by these ready military on the got it as arms, you know palestinian resistance. abraham. that is, he was born in 2003. his birthday was october 13. that means he's not yet even 19, this line of novelist that we're handling and, and where i can, i think we need to recognize that places where armed resistance is growing and is happening in areas like ginny, like nablus, like does it, that have been under an incredibly brutal suffocation that a systemic by these really authorities and enforced by the israeli army, the vanguard of israel's colonial project. but given what you say, how do the divisions within the armed movement and the wider palestinian leadership hamper efforts for posting to progress? i think that's a question that was more relevant a couple years ago right now after the unity and the father of last year, you saw

a reclamation of palestinian identity in the collective and that includes palestinian in exile and diaspora. the division of palestinians was not simply within the political factions as geopolitical and it's enforced by israel, the palestinians with less bank id id, jerusalem. and those are those really citizenship. and i think that was fragmented last year. and if you notice a lot of what, what is it reiterated, especially by palestinian numb armed resistance groups is that we are here for the palestinian collective. these are generations that are quite literally probably in the early twenty's to, you know, thirty's and all the new isn't is really brutal occupation. and that's kind of what's happening here. it is the facto protection israeli army rated nobliss

at the dawn hours and besieged. but on he nebulous to who his final words were do not let go of the gun. i think i'm going to be killed. i'm under siege, pray for me. and now imagine being 19 years old, having to defend herself and a nuclear power army, read your town consistently to target, you imagine the fear he felt and still he withstood and tried to protect. so i think the support is seen from that length that we continuously keep getting killed . and his new generation is finding that this is not the life to lead. despite what he said, is that enough of a cohesive approach, even after so many years of conflict, sage unblock 8. hope for what? in which conflicts are you referring to, you mean on funding as well, looking at the situation now, is there enough of

a cohesive approach for palestinians? i think that's also dependent on i've said this before, it's not just on the pilot. we the palestinians, as a people we are cleaning up the mess of decision makers in terms of policy, in terms of enforcement, in terms of continuing funding, israel and i apologize, but the framing of journalists to keep calling it the conflict. it's not, this is a military aggression. this is an old and it's really bad. i think every you and conditioned or ever was the protection of human life or in barking to me very much appreciate your time. thank you for joining us here on al jazeera. now former us president donald trump says the f b i has searched his florida home is believed to be possible investigation into whether he took classified records from the white house. his private residence, trumpet, criticize the raid, calling it's a weapon. i zation of the justice system,

my kind of reports from washington. the form the president was staying at his apartment in manhattan when the raid took place and was seen leaving from tower and walking towards waiting cars. according to the former president, his home in mario lago, florida, was rated by a large group of f. b. i. agents who he alleges also opened the safe in his home. his statement says, after working and cooperating with irrelevant government agencies, this unannounced rate on my home was not necessary or appropriate. the justice department has declined to comment on the matter, including about whether the attorney general mary garland had personally authorized to search. previously the national archives and records administration had referred the discovery of 15 boxes of classified information at maro law. go to the justice

department for investigation. no former president has a additional determination that it is likely that they have committed a crime. judges do not sign off on warrants or anyone lightly. they always believe that there is likely that a crime has been committed and that it has been committed at this specific location . so this is genuinely an unprecedented event. the house general you 6 committee which is investigating the invasion of the capital on that day had also heard evidence about the removal of classified documents. when trump left office. there will also claims that when trump was president, he had repeatedly shredded or disposed of classified material. after reading it, the destruction or removal of classified documents to an unauthorized location is a federal offense. mckenna, audi 0, washington or some democrat,

say this late, this re truth. no one is above the law, but republicans argue the search is part of a political witch hunt g o. p leader, kevin mccarthy, warned on twitter. when publicans take the house, we will conduct an immediate oversight of this department for the facts and leave no stone unturned attorney. general garland preserve your documents and clear your canada. trump supported are also standing by the former presence and describe the rate as politically motivated in my own opinion. i think it's another i'm just a made up thing like the impeachment hoaxes. and it is a, with the january systems from didn't do any wrong with january 6th because he orders now the good news for losing tonight. i live, i know what was wrong with that when we have the i rate is one of donald trump's several ongoing legal battles if

convicted of violating the presidential records act, which includes taking classified documents to his private residence. he could face a fine of up to 3 years in prison, a sanction that well, there's not an investigation on the way a federal grant. jerry's gathering information on whether trump's lawyers try to block joe biden from formerly becoming president back in 2020 by using fake electors. and then there's the johnny the 6th capital attack champ, is accused of inciting violence against the u. s. government, but there are conflicting views on whether criminal charges will move forward. many believe prosecution could end up empowering his political face. well, dave arkenberg, his estate attorney for palm beach county, joins us live from west palm beach. florida, thanks very much indeed for joining us. would it be correct to say that this is unprecedented? definitely, thank you for having me. we've never had this situation before, which is why the f

b, i probably had layers and layers of review. and then they had to go to a judge to get a warrant sign, which requires probable cause that a crime has been committed and that mar logo contains evidence of that crime. and you know, because it is so unprecedented that the judge probably was extremely meticulous because this has never been brought before any judge in american history. so legally, what happens from hair than what's the process? well, now that the search warrant who's been executed, the documents that are collected be taken to the f. b i headquarters and they will be reviewed. plus, there needs to be an inventory of the documents seized and it will be returned to the court. the document filed and it looked trump at any time his lawyer is if he has a copy of that search warrant, which was he most likely does. he could release that search warrant if he thinks that the search warrant is so corrupt. he could also fight it in court,

but i don't expect you'll see either of those things happen instead. trouble wage this war in the court of public opinion. he is planning to run for president again and will use this to be a martyr. because after all, why run on ideas when you can run on grievances? is this though, the weaponized asian of the justice department is, as trump supporters would put it, would you make that if there was a weapon is ation of the justice department, it occurred in the previous administration, the top administration under bill bar, who did things like incarcerate michael cohen trump's long time lawyer and after he was supposed to be let out, he gets sent back to prison because he was writing a book on donald trump. meanwhile, donald trump's close friend paul manor ford is former campaign manager, was allowed to go home. so it is the pot calling the kettle black to say that this

is the weapon is ation of the justice department that's just projecting by the folks in trump world. i mean, what would they actually have been looking for then? what kind of documents, what are we talking about? it's a serious crime to remove or mutilate, or throw out confidential documents, classified documents, especially when it evolves national security. and i have to believe that there is no way that a former president at home would have been searched if it was just trinkets or love letters to be confiscated from kim john own. it had to be something that was very sensitive that perhaps pertain to national security and it had to be that the person involved trump here would have acted wilfully. we won't know until much later what the search warrant says, but this is not something that is a small matter. the only way that the department of justice would have approved

this and a judge would have approved. this is that it implicates a very serious crime. they've our bug state attorney for palm beach county. thank you very much. indeed for joining us here. thank you for having a painter more heads on the news. al, including taiwan, responds to days over chinese military exercises with live fire drills of its own and in sport. fans demand answers following the death of one for sales most in love . it martial arts, stock. ah . polls have mostly closed in kenya's, residential and parliamentary elections. the turner is expected to be about 60 percent. the 2 presidential hunt runners off former prime minister lineup finger

and the current deputy president william router, the race to replace outgoing who kenyata is expected to be close. voters also casting ballots for parliament and county governors. catherine story reports former gotten due in central kenya. voters arrived early to cast their ballots. technical and logistical problems were reported at some pulling stations. where does will come out well, as expected and every 100 hoot increase. but overall voting went smoothly. members of the messiah community wore their traditional clothing as they waited patiently line. i'm expecting that is i, there is going to be peace that people are gonna are going to let the leaders of the choice, the leaders that they know they are going to eventually the economy of this country . deputy president william router voted in his home county in the rift valley. he's

one of the front runners for the presidency. i feel very good that after so many months of campaigning and my freaking to the people of kenya and failing our agenda . and our manifesto and having discussions across the country this morning. it's d date. he's rival opposition leader. i low dingo voted at appalling station in nairobi, accompanied by scores of support. his outgoing president who kenyatta voted in central kenya, after falling out with his deputy kinyata has back to dingo to succeed him. leave your collection will be free, and it is every, every canyon's hope that that is the way it shall be. do you also? absolutely. ah, some analysts say canyon's want politicians to focus on issues like the economy.

most of the people we have spoken to share the same concerns. the cost of living is very high. people have no jobs, they're worried about corruption. they hope their new leadership will make things better. kenya has a history of election violence this year. voters say they hope the outcome of the polls reflect the true will of the people. catherine saw al jazeera nairobi, but inflation is moving so fast in case that the price of some food items as risen more than 40 percent in the past year alone. cost of food has risen sharply. mays flour has gone up 14 percent. cooking oil has increased by 41 percent, and wheat flour has risen by 24 percent of the time, joins us live, not from the n z a tell polling station in l direct. so how was the voters feeling about that rising cost of living in kenya?

well this election is all about the economy and both william root and loading the say the going to improve the lives of struggling canyons by introducing social welfare programs and subsidies. but where it is money going to come from this country is heavily in did the government bought a lot of money for mainly infrastructure projects such as roads and new buildings, which is great. we can see that when the capital r o b for bravo. but that money has to be paid back somehow and let me call them saying it will be the king and taxpayers who might, that might end up having to pay up the brunt of that debt people and hang out who are already struggling so many job they need for a job. the high cost of living is just something that the truly tenure inside your and being jobless, that seem to come from them to improve one economy for closer

talk and even fraud. we needed those things in life and her. when might we be expecting the results here? we had 15 results within 7 days, but probably from wednesday evening and maybe thursday morning. we'll get some indication of where things are going. and the last election in 2017 that was disputed. it went all the way to the court. the court ordered a re run, and canyons had to go back and vote all over again. so people are watching these polls hoping that doesn't happen this time round. what if, what the balance is saying that they think that whoever loses the selection will probably go to the supreme court if these polls are disputed. but again, official said, we only know within 7 days when the final results be announced. how are you with us? a lot for us. thank you very much studying it has killed at least 9 people,

south korea's capital, so of some of the heaviest rain in nearly 70 years. 7 more. i'm missing the affluent gagnen district was hit hard rock mcbride reports these rains have been expected with forecast, is predicting around 300 millimeters of rain poll spread over the best part of a week. now, many places have already experienced that in the sol area in these past 2 days, and it is still raining. one place recording $381.00 millimeters of rainfall on monday. 2 alone now that's the heaviest rainfall in a 115 years. but considering that's when records 1st began, it's pretty unprecedented. one of the worst effected areas has been the low lying gangnam district south of the han river. that's also home to the country's president. you took yell, who found himself stranded in his apartment. these rains have mostly been affecting

south korea with the rain bands now moving further south down the korean peninsula . but north korea has also been recording heavy rainfall with the north, suspected of releasing large amounts of water into the river system, shared by the 2 careers without informing the south 1st. because the 2 are talking at the moment, the korean peninsula usually gets annual reins in june with the return of the reins in september. but it seems that with changing weather patterns, this year, the rains have returned earlier and heavier than usual. several wild pas are burning across france as hot joy weather increases. the risk of places fires in 2 southern regions have forced hundreds of people to leave their homes. emergency personnel have been struggling to control one of the fires north of the city of grenoble. it's thought it was ignited by lightning strikes. and in northern italy, a wildfire was forced a 120 people in the town of villa, nova del vendor,

to evacuate. some homes have been destroyed, fire fighting plains have been brought in to doubt the things o 5 hello spreading across the iberia, russian authorities say under 60 blazes have taken hold. lightning strikes also thought with a cause for most of them. one siberian region has declared a state of emergency said the head heron al jazeera members of bangladesh is indigenous community. valiant tucker, demanding an end to government, censorship. ah, and in sports, the party in birmingham comes to an end details coming up later in the us. ah

however, we have more writing the forecast for southern parts of the arabian peninsula over the next couple of days and what to weather, just sliding outs of best, se parts of pakistan. little disturbance in the arabian sea. i think it would go on through the week. i me might just see some wet weather just creeping back towards our mom shall is continue. meanwhile across. so that's a western side of the i mean, farther north, across saudi arabia kata dry hot light duster, said your possibility from time to time is all about the temperatures getting up around 50 degrees celsius. once again, into back that and into q 8, as i was aware creeping towards i mont, by thursday, whether they're just lingering around the southern end of the red sea. joining up with the heavy showers across sea central belts of africa, more big down pools, just pulsing the way further west was on the east leeway so. see some heavier showers, just spinning out to south sudan. southern parts of chad. right across west africa because of paso scenes, maybe samples along with molly easing over towards the west coast. so sierra leone

. seeing some heavy showers over the next few days, could see some showers over the next few days. just about to sort of africa. we need the rain here. eastern parts of kenya could see some welcome rainfall, not as heavy as with like water got a little bit of wet weather for the western cape of south africa. ah frank assessments, how much support is that? that st protest that we've seen in hotels across the rest of the country, the street has been, has been very good at tapping into the coal confound to people across the country, informed opinions we will say more of what is happening is that climate change it making them work in depth analysis of the days global headlines. druggie is credited by some way where they were storing it. these credibility, these critics would say he couldn't play the part of a politician. what do you think went wrong inside story on al jazeera? ah

when lou ah do without 0 reminder of our top stories this our senior command of the palestinian armed group and accent martyrs brigades has been killed in a raid by israeli forces in the occupied westbank military says it surrounded the

home of abraham, them to see before an exchange of gunfire, 2 other palestinians died in the operation or 60 people were injured. poles had mostly closed in that kenya's presidential and parliamentary elections. the turner is expected to be about 60 percent. to presidential front runners, our former prime minister rather finger and the current deputy president william retired, former u. s. president donald trump says the f b i has searched his father home, is believed to be part of investigation into whether he took classified records from the white house to his private residence or returning to our top story, the killing of a senior commander of ac sir martyrs brigades, by israeli forces jamal nozzle is the spokesman for the fatter movement and a member of the fat revolutionary council. he says, israel is motivated by its upcoming election. we see the closer we get to the

israeli elections. the bloody of these wally attacks get on the palestinians. it is because the israeli government is trying to compete with its predecessors trying to appear more violent against but as seen as hoping to gain more ground in these wally election. so they, in israel, there is this thought which is well established, the more violent you are towards the palestinians. the closer you get to any connection, it appears that israel is coming closer to an all out war against the palestinian. this whole thing started in jerusalem when these really are a government allowed these really settlers performed there like some mosque and the change, the, the, the status quo of the mosque. then it spread through jeanine. it's meant to janine where the soil is continued to, to arrest more bell, seen an individual. then we saw the assault on garza and now it has come to novice israel knows all to will that such targeted killings will isn't the result in a reaction of the same type on the palestinian on the blessing and side is where it

is trying to destroy all the efforts of the palestinian government to beat in jean or novice, you have the palestinian authority, trying to establish the rule of law, trying to maintain stability uncall that is on the one hand. and on the other hand, you have the heavy arm, the heavy hand of these only army trying to work against the but a scene and efforts because they do not want bela seen, a president obama's and to succeed in doing what he wants to do. he wants to qualify palestine to become a democratic state, an independent state, and that is exactly what these really, governments do not want to see. several explosions have been heard from the direction of a military air base in russian controlled crimea. local authorities, st. one person was killed and 5 injured in the blast, or the russian defense ministry has denied an attack to place. it says the

explosion was caused, or the destination of aviation and ukrainian officials say a lebanese, a buyer is refusing to accept corn from the 1st congo shipment to leave the wars. and since the invasion, the rezone loaded with $26.00 and a half 1000 tons of cone, is now looking for another port to docket. ukrainian embassy, lebanon says the buyer argued the 5 months delivered today was too long. 7 vessels of sailed out of lexi ports under the deal between ukraine and russia. broken by the u. n. and turkey. the u. s. has announced an additional $1000000000.00 in military aid for ukraine. the largest single package, since the start of the conflict includes munitions for long range weapons. it adds to nearly $9000000000.00 in aid already given by washington. munitions for a national advanced surface to air missile systems, or ne sam's 1000 javelin systems,

and hundreds of 84 anti armor systems, 50 armored medical treatment vehicles, claymore, anti personnel, munitions, c for explosives, demolition munitions and demolition equipment and medical supplies to include 1st aid kits, bandages, monitors and other equipment. a day after china announced it was extending its biggest miniature drills. taiwan has carried out its own live fi exercises to simulate, defending the on and against a possible attack. attention has escalated since us how speak with nancy pelosi visited type i last week. the move beijing called a provocation saying was, ravi has more beijing's one china policy could make conflict about the future of taiwan inevitable. and this is what it might look like. on tuesday, taiwan began life fire drills to showcase the self proclaimed island nation's defensive power. days after some of the largest military exercises china has ever

conducted. so i don't use the thrill it is military play, walk to prepare for the invasion of. ready one, it is contacting large scale military exercises and missile launches as well. cyber attacks. this is what mation campaign and economic origin united him to weaken public more real taiwan type. he says it won't be intimidated even as china breeches the unofficial median line down the taiwan strait. the we need to counter the blockade imposed by the chinese military. and today's exercise, it's a let china know that we are prepared. i hope both sides can exercise a strength fighting a war is not good for the ordinary people. just send me the top officials from both sides or odds. we are just ordinary people and there's nothing we can do. if anything happens in the future, we can't do anything either. the latest flexing of muscles follows us how speaker

nancy pelosi is visit to type pay a show, a support for taiwanese independence. the china says directly contravene beijing's historical claim to the island. the us position china is using the diplomatic visit to pick a fight. clearly, the p r c is trying to course taiwan. clearly they are trying to course the international community and all say is, we're not going to take the bait and it's not gonna work. so it's a manufactured crisis that, that doesn't mean we have to play into that. i think it would only play to beijing's advantage. what we'll do instead is to continue to fly to sale and to operate wherever international law allows us to do so. and that includes in the taiwan strait and we will continue to stand by our allies and partners in, in the region. the war games have disrupted shipping and air traffic in a region crucial to global trade. more worrying, perhaps beijing and ty pay are turning up the heat on another brewing global

conflict. as in basra, v o j 0. well, benjamin husk of which is a research for the australian national university. he thinks, facing that nature trails are as much warning for the rest of the world as they are for taiwan activities. all of this nature is going to be effective means for the way and for the broader chinese system to test out its ability to project force and to demonstrate the capabilities that it has on hand. so it says to function, i don't think this is a preparatory phase for a full scale, and cbs invaded no tie one because that would be incredibly risky for the chinese government and incredibly costly for china. given the united states, having single determination to defend taiwan in various different way bought, it is a powerful mean for trying to register the content test. it's for the and also send a really strong signal to the rest of the world that they should not get involved

in this fight because of the 5 how that vision can bring to bad. certainly the balance of power has gifted the p l. a has incredible capabilities that it can bring to bear in a fight under the see all the stuff the see in the viral branch of the military and the united states still remains with minimal fighting force. but of course, the power relativity are shifting in bathing favor. however, i think that in this particular instance, the united states hasn't responded with more of a show of military force. probably because of the internal disagreement in washington. it was the house big decision to visit type, hey, i defend a really strong signal to bathing about us support for taiwan. but that was not a decision endorsed by president biden. and the binding registration had ultimately decisions with respect to military matters. showing us the 4th would be a student for president body himself. and the bottom registration wants to give

basing a certain amount of space to express a dang up, but does not want to escalate. we the strong us show for this particular point in time. japan has mark 77 years since another sarky, atomic bombing with a bell toting. at the exact time the city was hit, o. d u s. to drop the bomb at 11 o 2 am doing world war $23.00 days after launching the wells 1st nuclear attack at russia. the bomb in might have saki instantly killed more than 70000 people. shooting due to members of indigenous communities in bangladesh or protesting against a government decree, they say denies their existence media hub in order to avoid using the word indigenous doing coverage of the u. n's international day of the world's indigenous peoples. the government has been trying to censor the word for years, insisting there were no such groups in the country. about 3000000 people in

bangladesh claim the status of their treasury has more format hooper, in bangladesh, bangladesh is home to more than 54 indigenous peoples. this speak more than 35 languages and have distinct cultural identities. yet they referred to collectively as are the marshes. a tundra dialogue teaches young people about their cultural heritage to ensure it is passed on to future generations. i mean, you think of a shared dimension when equity. i don't know, of course i consider myself as indigenous. our ancestors, including my forefathers, have been living here for centuries and to birthright. i am a native indigenous person with any of indigenous groups represent nearly 2 percent of the population of 168000000. bangladesh to this day has not adopted the 2007 you and declaration on the rights of indigenous peoples and the land rights of the indigenous communities in this country still remain one of the most contentious

and, and resolve issues. the un declaration obligates the government to restore ancestor land and protect minority groups from oppression and discrimination either as to the cannabis oil. it is unfortunate that our state still refuses to recognize the identity of our people as indigenous for more than a decade now, which is wrong. if indigenous people are recognized as per the un mandate, it could also serve the nation's interest by accepting the cultural and ethnic diversity of all concerned. some school textbook have been published in indigenous languages, but most are gathering dust. even though some school books have been published in native languages, so far, the government has not given us formal permission to teach those in schools. in 2011 bangladesh enacted a law that classifies none bingley tribe as ethnic minorities, rather than as indigenous groups. right groups and analysts thing that formal

recognition of indigenous peoples would mean the return of lands and protection of fundamental rights. which is why the government is reluctant to adopt the un resolution. i'll just it i had hoped to get some clarity from the information minister. however, our request for an interview went unanswered. sandwich audrey al jazeera mother per bangladesh, an immigration standoff has intensified in the us as a texas continues to bus migrants to other states with little coordination. american civil liberties union has criticized the move and cold on the federal government to investigate gabriel and his on the reports from new york. they arrived by bus, tired and hungry. several dozen migrants in asylum seekers from mostly central and south american countries. arrived over the weekend to a bus terminal in new york city, they all had one way tickets and nowhere to go. they all crossed into the u. s. to the state of tex's days earlier,

but that states governor greg abbot has said that they are overwhelmed by the recent influx of migrants. so he's bust some of them to immigrant friendly, new york city as a way of saying you deal with them. but new york's mayor eric adams on monday blasted abbott, saying the city shelters are unprepared to properly care for the migrant. i don't think anything being is more anti american. of then shipping people on a bus, 45 hour trip of without any of the basic needs that they have a direction or coordination. coordination. we have no, i did a number of people. we have no idea of you know, where to final destination are. he's just totally disregarding of the human part of this, and it's not just new york in recent days, and weeks abbot has buston estimated 6000 migrants to washington d. c, as well. a city already dealing with

a heads on al jazeera in sports $23.00 time at grand slam champion. serena williams stuns the tennis. well, we'll have those details coming up. sure. ah .

with ah ah ah, i for the sports news now. hey, carrie. thank you so much. serena williams has made a big announcement regarding her career. the 23 time grand slam champion says the count down to her retirement has begun. a 40 year old made the comments in an article published on tuesday and admits she's evolving away from the sport. williams also says she's, it shall relish the next few weeks and what could be

a major hint that shall bow out after this month's us open. the tennis great started her preparations for flushing meadows in toronto, where she claimed her 1st single victory in more than a year and her post match press conference. williams suggested retirement is indeed on the court. just delighted with getting closer to the light. oh yeah. syllabus like lube as good as me can wait to get to that, like i know you're joking, but can you have that job? okay, so then explain to me what, what the light is to you, what the light represents rhythm, you know, i love playing nodes. it's like, it's amazing, but you know, it's like, i can't do this for ever. so it's just like sometimes you just wanna try your best

to enjoy the moments on joining us now from cape cod in massachusetts. as sports illustrated, a tennis writer, john worth time at young. what did you make of her comments in the article because she doesn't actually come right out and say, she's retiring. yeah, she just seemed to leave the door open a crack. i mean, it's funny. she's, yeah, you know, 41 years old. she hasn't one. imagine a major in more than a year at some level, this was not at all surprising. and yet it's still sort of shocking to actually have it. haven't the reality. i mean, it's been more than a quarter century since there were no williams on the, on the women's tour and in this orbit. so i think she's left the door open a little bit. i think in all likelihood she will stick by it. and the us open will be her final tournament. and again, i mean it's just, it's sort of funny that somebody who's again at an age where she's, she's 10 years past the retirement age. and that number one player, the world that party retired in her mid twenty's earlier this year, that was

a surprise. this is somebody who is north of h 40. and yet everybody is still shocked by it. because what, what we've all sort of known was eventually going to happen is now seems to be reality today where the she rank among the all time greats. i think the greatest, i mean i think that whatever metric you use, i think she gets a lot of credit for longevity in her 1st major title of the us open came in the 1990. she's been successful in double. she's held the number one right? a yeah, i mean, i think you for that this ever played tennis now. she has had a few controversial moments in recent years and has that tarnished her reputation at all? do you think? i think the added some complexity and i think it's sort of shattering in this announcement that that she wrote about. she alluded to the the a little obliquely, but she made to reference to that. i think it's all part of what made her great and

this intensity and intensity that she writes, you know, my sister read us didn't have this intensity. sometimes it's spelled out in ways that we're not in service of her wedding titles and family. but again, i mean this is, this is a complex character. she's been in the public eye for 25 plus years. there were some moments that you probably would take back. but i think all of this put together sort of made her the player she was, i don't think a few of these are credible incidence to tarnish her legacy and significant way. well, what will that legacy be in tennis and beyond it? it's a great question. and i think, i mean there are some things that are obvious, right? i mean did the, the wikipedia entry 23 major is been 2 weeks at number one. but i think her big legacy is just that she took this path, no one had taken and she ran her career like no one had taken the fact that you still playing in her fourties is absurd. and i think one of her real legacies apart

from sort of the statistics and the number of majors. i think one of her real ret, legacies that she's proven that there is no one way to get to the top of a sports mountain. and there is obviously a race element to this. there's a class element to live. we forget that or her older sister was probably the 2nd most successful player, the last 25 years. i mean there's a lot going on here, but i think her, her pap breaking to me something that's really going to loom large. okay, great. we'll leave it there for now. for the last 3 to tennis, rare john world time. thank you so much. once again for your time, brazilian jujitsu star leander low has been buried in sao paolo, after being shot dead in a night club on sunday. the 8th time world champions. death is called shock and outrage. in the martial arts community, monica in our kids has more from rio de janeiro. ah, this shocking video published on social media shows leon law being taken to the
