but on that call, it says up 0 life to help also coming up tributes across the world for legend of the beautiful guy pelley has died at the age of 80 to russia launches a series of kamikaze drones on ukraine a day off. the one of his biggest mythology types is thought of the war and why these so called go ships in rio de janeiro, a wiring environment. ah . so we begin with breaking news and mammals to pose lita ang santucci is facing more time in prison. she'd been found guilty of 5 counts of corruption that he sentenced to combine 7 years in jail. the former nobel peace prize winner has now been jailed for a total of 33 years on a range of offenses. since military sees power in february last year to achieve denies the allegations more in this next port to 10, want to be news are following the case from singapore and and table. she has been

in prison since february, and this is the last of the cases bought against it is she faced the 19 charges and all the previous charges and sentences and verdicts handed down a while back, as you say, with a total of 26 years for those these final 5 charges were heard inside the court in may the door behind closed doors. on monday, the verdict decided then and announced to the public just a couple of hours ago, adding another 7 years onto the total number of years that she needs to serve. which at the age of 77, basically amounts to a life sentence for her 33 years would take well passed her 100 and 10th birthday. so it would appear under the current circumstances that her leadership and her participation in me and my politics is all but at an end. what's the international position on what's going on in me?

in my view and security counselor applying some pressure? well, the national positions always been fairly unanimous neck that condemned and criticized me and my position to varying degrees. because while the criticism may have been a verbal, it's not necessarily in terms of action. now the un action, the mention occurred earlier on this week where there was a un council resolution, the 1st one on me and more since it gained independence 75 years ago. condemning out right? what has been going on in me and more demanding that come to tv, set free. i'm but action be taken towards restoring democracy in the country. the united nations once every one to return to what was a piece plan outlined by our fee um a while ago and came through with what was called a $5.00 points consensus, which me and mark promptly ignored and did nothing about. so what the international community has been demanding is that they return to the 5 points consensus and

abide by the terms set through there. but that doesn't seem like it's going to happen anytime soon either because i see on excluded me and more from its recent high level meetings. and the meetings of some foreign minister took place in thailand just to show a while ago was not attended by 5, fully half of the fee on foreign ministers. so the amount of consensus there is towards actually taking any action would appear despite this un resolution to be very muted and almost in consequential part time i'll leave it there for now. thanks very much said to want to billy reporting reference report. thank you. brazil's government is declared at 3 days of morning falling the death of the legendary football appellate tribute support in from around the world for the 82 year old who died after a long battle of cancer. he has been described as the eternal king and the most divine football is. our latin america detail is in human begins. our coverage is born edison ad anxious, the 2 men thought, but the world do him simply as believe,

had been removing barricades in northern cost of hours. after authorities reopen the main crossing, the serbia protest as had been demonstrating for weeks, the detention of a sub former police officer who's not be moved to house arrest. 7 governments has pulled back. it's treated through an area near the customer border. they were deployed this week as attentions rose russell said, jones live not from the northern city meter beecher in kosovo. as the russell vest up these barricades have been in place for nearly 3 weeks. what's changed? well there been uh, the of the 13 roads that were barricaded blocked by the attic, sir benzo, who leave in the northern off kozora. and as of now, only 2 of the roads are now open. did barricades have been removed here however, the other 11 roads are still barricaded, still are blocked here. so on wednesday night, a president of serbia,

alexander woods, visited the region and he met the leaders of the sylvia community in norton, kosovo. and then after that meeting, they have agreed to remove did the barricades within 48 hours. but as of now, it has been almost 26 hours at only 2 rods are open and k for the nato forces. here they say that they're running out of the time and within that limits of 20 as were 48 hours old, raw's neat should be opened and that the barricades need to be removed over as of now, that is not their picture now. so the people who are guarding the barricade they're not there. and the security forces, the heavy measures at that the heavy security measures are been taken. here we can see the key fob forces, the local security forces. but as of now, as i said, 11 rules are still blocked and barricaded and but the switches still remains very much tans here, even though it is cold in the attention to be running very high of ne,

recently the serbian army, they said it was at its highest level of combat readiness. that's right, the serbian army yesterday announced that they are degrees in the level of the other. so it's not at the highest level of the combat readiness. and they're pulling back the majority of the forces or the troops that they have been deployed to the crossover borders 4 days ago. but still there are other around $1000.00 of the serbian troops are over there now am in, in middle it's at the north and off kazora and in the serbian part of the city. and you can see, you can feel here that it is actually, it doesn't look feel like a kosovo city, but rather seriously in serbia, the serbian flags are everywhere on the walls, on the roads and balconies at home. so and that is did that the mean source of these wall passion? so survey at mixer surf here in the modern crossover, this is serbia, is the lead met state. and so we also see this part of the country as

a part of serbia that has been the main source of the tension. sylvia doesn't recognize that, that, that, that the independence of crossover and definitely the core. so when government says that serve your needs to respect your sovereignty and, and also recognize the independence, but put a lost in peace because someone government here is calling for an international mechanism to be established to secure the peace here. however, as i said here in me through his sir, it doesn't feel that it is casa when there's almost no crossover notorious to hear no regulations here. so it is quite strange that we think also you feel how serbia is influential over the streets, off metro say in this part of the city or i wrestle, thanks that i wrestle said a report in there for me to future italy's right wing government has approved measures to fine charities which rescue migrants in the mediterranean sea. they will also allow officials to impound ships if they break the rules. grease as charity should request to port and sale to it without delay. after rescue rather

top priority. i'm seem obvious. you know, we will guarantee israel's military advantage in the region through unceasing empowerment. the 1st mission is to make sure that iran but a ny, later with nuclear bombs. also high up on the agenda is the normalization of relations with more are countries under 2020 abraham accord with sideline palestinians, who knew to release government guidelines. highlight by saying the jewish people have an exclusive and unquestionable rights. all parts of the land of israel netanyahu's new cabinet promises to expand illegal settlements in the occupied west bank, raising phase of an escalation intentions. the on a domestic level, most controversial nathan, yahoo is gone to major concessions to the far right coalition. made up of policies until recently was still on the political fringes. hundreds of anti government protesters gathered outside the can sit,

demonstrating against some ministerial appointment and out including that's of it's may have been convicted of incitement to racism in 2007. the now security minister had a personalized law passed in his name on wednesday, giving him unprecedented powers over the police force of the controversial lord. include a very small, rich lord. the 1st about our diary leader of the shaft policy to become the interior minister despite a suspended sentence. the tax floored the latter giving smart through the head of the ridge, designers and party. a role within the defense ministry over seeing illegal settlements in the occupied west bank. critics all concerned that some of these new policies will have far reaching consequences, including the undermining of the judicial system whereby the supreme court could be overruled. these were all precondition set by the coalition for the government to be sworn in in the 1st place. and we will probably see we can, it's in the o because his body is much weaker with others like the religious because of

a trial. and because he has no moderate polity within the coalition, like in the past, this is the 6th government in less than 4 years. and that's in yahoo already has a loss on his plate through the country at its most divided. nice and yahoo! in fact, as prime minister and he says he will be the one i think the agenda for the current government. he also says that red lines won't be crossed any one of these did by what he calls ride the call id. ology bazzi is mostly in this position thanks to a far rights coalition. now the big question is, who will have the upper hand height? i'll just 0 west jerusalem activists in brazil, a warning of a possible environmental disaster. long ritchie's in areas coastline. dozens of abandoned vessels attending a once thriving bay into a polluted graveyard ships southerbuys as this report. ah, rio de janeiro is famous for its waterfront,

clear waters and white sand beaches. but just down the road and gone about a bay, the scene is very different. a graveyard of ships, dozens of boats, abandoned and left to rest. this is our bosses on chic avella. these vessels are old and their owners don't use them, so they abandon them. if this is a crime, it's gone on for years, ignored by most people. but a stormy evening in november, quickly changed that the sa louise, a large and rusted cargo ship broke free and drifted across the harbour. it crashed into latin america's longest bridge over water and forced the closure of one of the main commuter roofs in the middle of rush hour. now the navy's investigating, but environmentalists say more needs to be done, will not view so near solely the crash drew attention to the existence of this

graveyard of ships. san luis remains in rio's port with 50 tons of fuel inside. it was, it's a ship with high corrosion, it's not safe, and it can cause environmental disaster. they're already seeing the impact. heavy pollution is threatening, turtles and sea horses. and the base dolphin population has dropped from 800. the only $34.00 fishermen and the broader economy are also paying the price to make this guy i used to fish, i used to catch $100.00 killers, the face quickly. now to catch 50, kill the fish. it will take a week or a month. one environmental group says the pollution is costing millions of dollars in lost production. after the crash, local media said officials began studying how to remove the so called ghost ships from the bay. but while they're studying the options, these skeletons are sinking deeper into its muddy waters and for those sounding the alarm.
