ready bruce president, faces a genocide and murder investigation for her handling of deadly political violence. that's killed. 17 people. ah, civil robin you're watching of. is there a like my headquarters here in dover? also coming up. russian forces joined hands with the mercenary group to step up. a tax on the strategic ukrainian town of sold are in the east migration. trade and climate change dominate the summit of the 3 north american leaders in mexico and terrorism charges against an austrian professor of egyptian origin. a dropped following an al jazeera investigation. ah, welcome to the bridal pros. attorney general is launching an investigation against

dinner belonged to the members of her government on genocide and murder charges. it follows the most violent day since unrest began in december. the rest of the former president of castillo 17 people died in protest in the southern region of una on monday marianna sanchez has more from lima and a lawmaker just told me a little while ago that he's very sure that is the prime minister, will give the vote of confidence from lawmakers here, but it wasn't you see from the star because the left wing will makers when when federal law walked into the chambers, they shouted at him, murderer, then they did not allow him to speak. they took the floor and presented the pictures, the photos of many of the, of the victims of the died yesterday in flashes with security forces in the city of who know also he confirmed that the 18th person died yesterday. he

is a police officer who was attacked by a mob and burns a car. well, the prime minister spoke it during his presentation about what is going on in the country. he announced a curfew of from a pm to 4 am in tune up for 3 days. brazil supreme court has ordered the rest of the man who was in charge of public security in the capital when government buildings was stormed on sunday. other officials could also face action, supporters of form of present drive. also nora targeted the congress, the presidential palace and the supreme court, or latin america to lucy newman rebels. brazil's capital brazilian looked calm just 3 days after the assault on the presidential palace supreme court and congress. but as often happens, looks can be deceiving. here in the presidential palace the cleanup of sundays

attack, myself proclaimed patriots calling for military intervention to unseat newly inaugurated left. when president lula da silva continues, and the rest of the now dismissed head of brazilian military police signals that the clean up of culprits is far from over. the government concedes the armed forces and police have been quote contaminated by what it calls a culture of institutional hatred. promoted by former president jade bernardo kelly that we asked institutional affairs minister alexander padea. if security forces remain a threat demos his uses this interview, we have clear evidence of individuals, military police, or members of the army who collaborated on sunday with the terrorists. or when negligible, they will be investigated and held accountable for their actions before the law. ah, it's not a secret that lulu the silver was not the candidate favored by brazil's police and

army under former president bull seattle. the armed forces occupied more cabinet positions than during brazil's former military dictatorship and received handsome salaries. the army refused to dismantle camps of thousands of brazilians calling for military intervention, even as lula was being sworn in just a few kilometers away. but an overhaul or purge of hostile members of the army is also risky. at the end of the day, if the government wants to the so the government could blame individuals instead of the whole, if the tuition and i think that's pretty much what's gonna happen in order to not create another crisis for the government to deal with president lula may indeed be forced to show more leaning towards security voices than he and his left wing constituency would like the country still in shock. the symbolism of what happened here is, was to on no one. the shattered glass windows, for example,

represent transparently empower on the mobs that invaded this palace. used these open staircases that were designed by brazil's famous architect, oscar ne meyer to symbolize the openness in connection with the people. yes, what happened on sundays, not what they were designed for. and even this, these military intervention activists to being bused back to where they came from. they vowed to continue fighting. lucy newman, al jazeera, brazil, yet the festivals as of stepped up, their assault and a small salt mining town in the east of the country. with the help of a group of mercenaries. the wagner groups chief says they surrounded the sold. our city center ukraine's president says the area has been flattened. it's the city of bus route where troops on both sides have suffered has heavy losses. ukraine says

it's false as have been holding on a bad mood despite in months of attacks. and rushes been conducting naval drills and then a weekend see it says it's frigate is armed with a hypersonic missile capable of evading west and air defenses. while tall stratford report so from the ukrainian capital, keith present lensky last night. acknowledging that the battle for solid awe was indeed intensifying. he saying that the ukrainians had in his words one time in order to get more men and supplies in sight. that town now solid is around 20 kilometers. ne of the town of buck. mood, of course, buck mood is seen some of the most intensive fighting over recent weeks and months . a town that is often nicknamed a meat grinder because of the sheer amount of men that have been killed in it on both sides. solely dog is a salt mining town. it is the largest salt mine in ukraine and it has

a vast network of underground tunnels, around 200 kilometers, in fact have underground tunnels, some as high as 30 meters. i mean, a football match for example, is being held under ground in solely in the past. so one can you imagine this is a huge strategic importance. we can only speculate that certainly according to the russians, they saying that the ukrainians are using those tunnels as defensive positions to store ammunition and so on. so we can only speculate the fighting. there is particularly intense because it is of such a strategic and military importance, whether we are going to start seeing such a thing as a seizure, such as what we saw around the agile style plant in mariel pool was months ago, remains to be seen. so let's take a look at the rushes. wagner group, now. the private paramilitary forces established in 2014 of the moscow an ex crimea

. the group is founded by russian businessmen in guinea, pig was in whose close to present vladimir putin. he's also a catering business, or he also has a catering business was what's called toot in chef. now the wagner group recruited russian prisoners to fight in ukraine promising they'll be free men when they return. if they survive the wall, i like them. the t 12 is a russian alice lecture at queen's university in belfast. he explains how the wagner group has managed to strengthen its presence in ukraine. there is a lot of tensions and competition when russian army and security forces between each other and in pre gordon has established himself as a person who is distinct by the fact that he is group. and when you say group, we're talking about tens of thousands of men equipped with most modern weapons, including $900.00 tanks, aircraft killer and so forth. i actually don't want way bill to continue to

advance against the ukrainian army and bach with them. so it is our area where everywhere else carousel new car of roches was wayne retreat. and now here having been there for many weeks and month i'll find their own, their costs seemingly or overrunning very important strategic strategic down. so it's a big winnable pre gotten himself as a source for russia more generally. they always been very closely linked with russian armed forces and with russian security forces. usually that we used will things which of the official russian porters didn't want to be going to seem to be doing. for example, in syria, i mean other parts of africa where the way of the raking but the same. surely they are going to joins the heap with the, with the russian security forces in russian army in general. and if you look at the level of the equipment and military things to have

with them as i said, including planes and so forth. and it's not just here, it was all saying them in libya and so forth. you know, you see the basic is an official army, but basically they are very much more part of the ah, put in also know more generally, but it is that progressions obisky in charge of it. and for him, it is extremely important to show that he is the one capable of winning when everybody else is losing on the russian side. russia has got accusing the us of participating in the claim wall about a 100 ukrainian soldiers are heading to the states to can training on the patriot missile defense system. the russian ambassador in washington, d. c says, america is trying to inflict as much damage as it can on russia. my camera has more from the white house. they wouldn't be drawn on the timeline, how long the training is going to take, or when exactly it is going to start. however, it is understood that

a group suffering cranium soldiers are already on their way now. it must be understood as well that a hatred massage battery. 5 requires some 90 soldiers to man. so although the figure of $100.00 is being pushed around, it's likely to be higher than this for the battery to be continually operational. in other words, you would need to see the from 180 soldiers rather than one team of 90. so this training we now understand is going to be happening. as i said, the duration we don't know when exactly it's going to start. we don't know what it does appear to be is that the training will take place in oklahoma, in the fort. so army base, this is the home off the american field off hillary school. so that will be on the us base in oklahoma. we understand we will hopefully get more details from the pentagon. the daughter of a former iranian president has been sentenced to 5 years in prison. lawyers for the

hash, me have not provided details on the charges against her, but said the sentence wasn't final. local media report that she was arrested in september last year for allegedly inciting protests into iran as part of a widespread demonstration against the death of masa. i mean, the in police custody customer was arrested and banned from political activity in 2012 for posing the state. her father aqua hashmi, rust and johnny was the wrong president from 1989 to 900. 97 will still have here on there are millions under severe weather warning in the u. s . states. california as a new pacific storm threatens more flooding, often the birthplace of voodoo, celebrates the religion reemergence, drawing followers from all of the world i

use we got something a bit unusual unfolding in patagonia. hi everyone who's details right now? it's the fact that we're seeing this much rain at this time of the year in commodore river dad via but it looks like the bulk of that precipitation wants to stay over the open water. but if it shifts just a bit, that's a lot of rain coming your way for a brief on wednesday in time weather alerts and play for that rain in the now in brazil you're looking for about 50 millimeters of rain in a short period of time. so that could certainly trigger some flooding. central america looks like this. fairly calm. we've got some rain falling, but sunny conditions look at this feed of air through the gulf of mexico. so watch what it does to the u. s. calls states. it pops up those temperatures, houston at $26.00, but then look, it's familiar. set up, get that cold air, rushing off the rockies, meeting up with that warm moist air from the golf. it's going to sparks and storms sweeping across this area on thursday,

back to the here and now still dealing with another pacific storm up and down the coast of california. but this time around, i think it's going to be worse for no cow, northern california, around san francisco, for example. more in the way of cloud cover for oregon and washington state and canada's british columbia. and off to these fairly settled conditions, trying to it's got a high of one degree on wednesday. that's a feel later. ah, the witness inspiring films from around the world. they shall not stop the fire left and killed. the power is fast witnessed, intimate portraits and epic struggles because the leadership is often from attack. not just the people witness the human spirit and bitter reality. there still men believe women, a property witness award winning voice is telling groundbreaking stories. witness on al jazeera

lou. ah, what about you, what you deserve? it means the whole robin. a reminder of all top stories, russian forces have stepped to better assault on the salt mining town of solider in the east of ukraine. the u. k. says it appears that russia has taken control of much of the town blocking a key ukrainian supply line brazil supreme court as all the rest of the man who was in charge of public security. the capital one government buildings was stormed on sunday. anderson torrance, whose company in the us was removed from office earlier after the riots he served as justice minister under the former president, dr. olson already approved. attorney general is launching an investigation. gates

president dina ability on genocide and murder charges, it follows mondays violence to which 17 protest us were killed. well, let's get mall this from ben dolton. he's the founder and editor of geopolitical academy report, an independent news website josefina from an aqua in nicaragua. mr. norton, good to have you with us on the program just as an overview. it seems that which of where you look at president velocities and of a difficult position. and that seems to be getting worse by whether you want to say it by the hour or by the day. certainly the entire country is in an open revolt and we have to understand what is happening. why are people improve protesting? because there was a democratically elected president, pedro castillo, who was overthrown in a kind of was sophisticated, political, coo and december, and in latin america, we've seen many cruise. in fact, there are similarities to the qu, in bolivia, in 2019 against the president,

even morales. and in both countries, there were large protests and those protests were largely dominated by people from the indigenous majority. both in peru and bolivia. these are countries that have an indigenous majority that has largely been excluded from the political system. and when pedro castillo was removed from office and in prison without trial for 18 months of preventative prison, that sent a large protest in these indigenous communities. and they're demanding that he's freed in that are manning, new elections and 47 protesters have been killed in the past month. so you get the history of it, which we've also been reporting. let's just talk about the here. and now the prosecutor's office is talking about a prosecution of government officials. and if they find faults in any way that the, the president is acted, how can they actually acts? and is the prosecutor's office independent of what, what is, what would we would assume be under the ministry of justice? is that correct? yes. well,

these are questions that everyone in peru is asking right now. i've been speaking to a lot of people on the ground and people are, are kind of confused. they think that, that what might happen is that dina, go to work. they might, may try to take action to prevent the independence of the attorney general's office . or this could be an example of the novel to what it's a resigning and fling. i mean, in peru there have been 7 presidents in just over 5 years. so the reality is that is a very unstable country, and presidents have come and gone in a matter of weeks. so we've already seen that in of a lot. it's a past a recent order just a few weeks ago that said that the president of the congress can stand in her position as interim president, when she leaves the country. and a lot of people improve assume that that could be a way for her to potentially have a way to flee if she needs to. and this could be an opportunity where she's spending facing genocide charges. she might decide that that's no longer worth being in office and running parallel to that is the prime minister, alberto both hola is talking about or trying to push through this vote of

confidence through congress. but congress is dominated by the opposition. but for government to be foamed unfold the mechanics of government to be formed in peru, it is a constitutional requirement that such officials are authorized all given the backing within congress. if it doesn't, we're heading for more political instability only. certainly, i mean, the congress has a majority riling opposition, but at the same time, the in of on a lot of day doesn't really have a political base of support. at this moment, she was the vice president of federal castillo, but in january of last year, she actually left left the left wing party that they're going to have been part of which is called bay to leave today. and she became an independent and she said she disagreed with the left thing ideology of the party. and then when she came to power, just a month ago as president, she formed the coalition with certain right wing opposition parties. but then there

are other writing opposition parties led by the food he morty, family, whose family, whose father albert, the, for him already actually had been a dictator in peru, in a govern from 1900. so 2000. and they also want to see dana go to war if they remove. so it's a very complicated game of political, you know, shares where people are constantly changing alliances and shifting their loyalties . so it's very hard to see. but a lot of people in peru are saying that they don't think the novel who are they is going to be in power for much longer. been no good to get your insight into your analysis on this changing situation. improve thanks for joining us from an aqua. my pleasure. the heads of state from the u. s. canada and mexico of held wide ranging tools. the north american leader summit is present. dr. barton canada is justin true to mexican president, andreas manuel lucas open enrollment in mexico. city, they discussed corporation on trade, immigration,

and drug trafficking. upolu has been following the summit in mexico city. what we've heard from the 3 world leaders of from canadian prime minister justin trudeau, president biden, and president lopez over the board of mexico has lacked a lot of specificity that we were hoping to hear. there was quite a bit of mutual praise between the 3 world leaders, their tone, certainly on a number of topics ranging from border security multilateral security strategy to curb weapons trafficking to curve human trafficking, to curve the trafficking of drugs moving back and forth between the us mexico border, all of that seem positive. all of that seemed very optimistic at one point president lope is over the board of mexico, actually praise president biden for being quote, the 1st president in a long time to not build a single metre of border wall. so certainly the question of migration, this unprecedented search of migrants, particularly from countries like but it's when he got out of haiti and cuba making

their way to the u. s. southern border was front and center at this international come it, but we should mention that this is a massively important regional, some in the 3 countries, mexico, canada, united states. this is north america is one of the most important trading blocks in the world. so the batter strengthening economic tied, a building on promoting trade was certainly also a big pillar of the talks that took place here in mexico city. we should also mentioned that there was a little point of attention ahead of the summit this more or less based off of the accusations that mexico is skirting its obligations under the us, canada, mexico, free trade agreement, or u. s. m. ca. but as many of us expected, other leaders focused more on areas where there is common ground. bell street supreme court has dropped a terrorist in case against a well known professor of egyptian origin following. and i'll just have a documentary. i thought it was charged with doesn't send them between 220 in

january last through the program. what is hidden is and then add on al jazeera, revealing that the charge is based on both evidence and fabricated accusations. what is best name for an annual report into european islam of phobia? while we spoke to various, if he says that it's a relief to finally be free of the burden of the k, i feel much better. you know, it has been more than 2 years now. were i lived in a, in a kind of limbo in a situation where i never knew would, would the judges go ahead and, and really filed charges which i did not believe at any time at any point of time. but, you know, i could also not believe that such a rate could happen on that. these allegations would even have been raised by any kind of they'd prosecute in the 1st place. so you never know in such a situation where an incredible amount of,

of investigation has been made and baseless allegations were made to even allow for such a huge rate in the 1st place me alongside a 69 other suspect suspects the how's the private houses and homes were rated at 5 o'clock in the morning. our kids were traumatized. special. busy forces broke through my window through my front door and my bank account was frozen. my assets are frozen. i was became basically as one of the most well known person that was affected. i became kind of the picture the, the public image of this operation. and, and i was standing there, you know, in the title time of the pen damage were social networks did not play out any way like a normal times and people were intimidated. and that was a very troublesome situation where it was even difficult for

a lot of those people who were affected to so wise since our bank accounts were frozen, you could not even like, continue your normal life. some people lost their jobs. i. after one year i left the austria and went to the united states where i'm now a professor international studies. and there were people who's, who's economic basis were like, destroyed a pacific sole continues to pound california a day after flooding and mudslide. risk full see the creation of thousands of people. at least 16 have been killed since last week, and more than 34000000 on the flood warnings. rob reynolds reports now from santa cruz in northern california. the latest in a relentless series of storms battered the california coast on tuesday with waves in some places 7 meters tall. the storms have called wide spread flooding. as 90

percent of the state population was placed under a flash flood warning. in many places, water saturated hillsides have collapsed in dangerous mud slides. tens of thousands of people have been evacuated from communities all over the state. we were watching, other people are being evacuated and we just had no idea. it was just a shorter and where we was just, i'm believable, you know, seeing the water come in and then it just gushing. just like a river in sacramento, the state capital utility cruise worked to restore power. high winds have toppled trees and power lines leaving more than 200000 people without electricity on tuesday. in santa cruz, the san lorenzo river, normally just a trickle of water became a muddy brown torrent beaches were piled high with debris. nearby enormous waves crashed against rocky cliffs in one spot tearing away part of

a residential street. the storms have proved costly and deadly. people have been swept away in flood waters and killed by trees knocked over in high winds. california's emergency agency estimates the damage may exceed $1000000000.00 and it's not over the fact that we're not out of the woods. we expect these storms to continue, at least through the 18th of this month. i'll, we expect a minimum 3. busy more these atmospheric rivers and different shapes and forms depending on different parts of the state. nearly half a meter of rain has fallen in some areas, forecasters say. downpours will continue on wednesday. rob reynolds al jazeera, santa cruz, california celebrations walking. the annual voodoo festival have been held in benign follows from all over the world, attend the event, but the practice continues to be stigmatized. as i'm address reports now from the
