and taking his own life. algae, there is toni chan reports now from near the school and long while lamb pool staring blankly into a future of unfathomable loss. this bery mother still can't believe her 2 year old son patter. a one will never return. he thought i thought it was just an ordinary day. i thought he'd go to school as usual. i had no idea he wouldn't come home. help was on hand, government officials filling forms and assisting families with the bureaucratic burdens of death. but for many, it was just too much grieving parents in inconsolable pain. finance health minister focused on one tiny ray of hope. 3 critically injured survivors who are now stable and safe. but he's aware changes must be made. so this never happens again in the last 2 years. we've seen 2 mass killings by a soldier now policeman. this is

a concern view that these people in positions of authority and power. it is big concern with ugly only cancer, but we will surely have to do something that will be hard in a country where the military wheeled so much power. the prime minister, the general himself visited the families on friday afternoon, handing out checks for compensation to the victims, families. with all the noise and commerce and the media attention. it's easy to forget that at the center of this disaster is this building, the day care center, or 22 children were murdered and the families they leave behind. and the children made one last john coffin's from the morgue, arriving at the temple near their homes. his parents waited outside so many

state police to fill in that void to keep their students safe. but that police department is also under investigation for the way that it handled the school shooting back in may. this police force that is run by the school district. there were only 4 officers remaining after the chief was fired in august for his role in responding to the shooting and 2 others. employees are placed on administrative leave. and the major question that all of these investigations have been looking into is why did it take more than an hour, in fact, 77 minutes to be exact, for our police officers to breach the classroom door in order to stop the shooting . the shooter within those classrooms killed 19 student and 2 teachers in then suing time and the school district, police force. they of course now have been suspended for an indefinite period of time. and again,

the state police force that has been asked to replace them still under resignation at all for its role in responding to that killing. an i a do we know how the families who lost children feel about this? yeah, there's been an ongoing visual even 5 months now after those children's deaths by the school district headquarters. and those parents told reporters today that they thought this was a good step for accountability is exactly what they were asking for in this sense. but some of them have also been asking for much more on a national front campaigning congress and also state legislatures to pass tighter gun control laws. of course, congress did respond in a way, 2 months after this shooting, by passing restrictions that tightened background checks that also pass more read more incentives for states to take away guns from people who may pose a threat in so called red flag laws. but these parents have also been asking for

more for assault weapons ban, for instance, which congress because of the republican support there has not had the appetite to pass. so for these parents today, they say it's a step in the right direction, but they still think there is, are many outstanding questions about this shooting and also much work to be done as far as tightening gun control. thank you very much. washington. honey, jo, castro. i will refuse it. nobel peace price has gone to a jail better russian activist. russia's most famous human rights group and ukrainian organization that documents war crimes being seen as a strong condemnation of the invasion of ukraine and the presidents of battle roost . russia by the russian activist l. s. b elliot ski has it campaigned for human rights and civil liberties. for nearly 40 years. he's been in prison without trial
