5:02 pm
a full investigation into the cause. the federal aviation administration, the f a has been choosing updates. the latest po says the f a is still working to fully restore the notice to air emissions system following an outage. it's ordered airlines to pause old domestic departures until 9 am eastern time. that's 1400 g m t, that's about a minute and a half ago to allow the agency to validate the integrity of flight and safety information. we've got to correspondence following the story, john henry, standing by an el paso and texas. first we're going to speak to a white house correspondent, kimberly hall. good. so kimberly looks as though they were aiming to have things back on track by about 1400 g m to either say just about a minute or so ago. now just bring us up to date with what the situation is. yeah, well things are happening so quickly that the latest update we have from the federal aviation administration is that in fact, the ground stop has been lifted as of just moments ago. we understand that the
5:03 pm
notice to air emissions are not have system as seems to be back on line. this is after an outage that caused chaos in the system for several hours. what we understand is that the system that allows for pilots to be notified of hazards that when they're taking off and landing, has now been put back on line. so this is going to be welcome news for the thousands of air travelers that have been stranded in airports all across the united states. now, the u. s. president has been talking about this. he said that he has directed a full investigation by the department of transportation. as you mentioned so far, the white house saying there is no evidence of a cyber attack. but what we do know is that there is certainly going to be a full investigation of this because this is critical infrastructure. what we know is that there is going to be further statements coming out of the federal aviation
5:04 pm
administration because there are certainly is going to be careful follow through this is affected and is going to have an enormous economic impact given the fact that so many travellers have been, i had their days effected by this and some 41 vows, or rather 4000 travelers have been affected by this. we know that there been flights cancelled there been flight in and out of the united states. and certainly we know that the president has directed the department of transportation to investigate. that's our white house correspondent. kimberly hall could. kimberly thank you very much. we're going to speak to john henry, who's johnny and so from el paso in texas. john, i would imagine that some of those passengers who've been strong to the kimberly was talking about her being here where you are just talk us through what's been going on there. well, it's still quite early in the morning here. we're on mountain time, so it's 7 in the morning here and there only really a handful of flight scheduled to leave. before that time i checked the board. they
5:05 pm
are still all listed as on time, although they are in fact laid it so they hadn't, hadn't been cancelling or delaying flights from here. that ripple effect of those delays starts in the east coast. we're in those early morning hours. you have people leaving earlier, but here where it's really just past dawn, things are just starting to get going. it's my understanding that planes have been allowed to land those that have been flying overnight, international flights. that sort of thing. but right here, it looks like there will be a pretty minor disruption in this part of the country. and of course, as you sweep west toward california where it's even earlier, and then on to the why it will be hours before those planes would have been scheduled to take off for the most part. so the fact seems to be mostly in the east coast right now. here in el paso, texas, where i am in mountain time 7 am. the effect has been pretty minimal. so far we
5:06 pm
have not been seeing plains take off. so it's been unusually quiet here at the airport. we are near fort bliss and military base, a huge military base where they've been entirely unaffected. they, their planes can take off as they like. but of course, the military also uses commercial airports and those soldiers would be impacted. but for now, it seems like the damage here has been relatively limited. john, thank you very much. we're gonna be getting an update from the east coast of what it has been effective so far, but for now, john henry and the partial. thank you. well, breaking news from afghanistan nowadays, 7 people have been killed in of suicide. explosion in cobble know the foreign ministry office, a dozen more people have been injured. the blast reportedly happened when the chinese delegation was meeting with the taliban. at the foreign ministry. we're going to bring you more details on that as we get them. police in jamie's north western village of los saras are affecting climate activists to allow the expansion
5:07 pm
of an open cur to coin one. the courts rejected the protesters request to state. non police have started removing them more than $1000.00 protesters of encounter neutral since sunday services got more familiar. since at dawn, police basically ran into the village of little hot. they're creating chaos among the climate protesters. and since that moment, they have been dragging and carrying on carrying out climate activists, one by one and what we seeing now in the last few hours or so is that the more technical staff of police is involved in the operation. as you can see here are some activists are caged in. they have caged himself in this a structure here and a people from police with climbing a equipment and are going up in this says structure. they have been taking out activists one by one. the activists are screaming a little hard to shoot, stay, we shouldn't move this village because of the expansion of the mine. but police say
5:08 pm
has been instructed after the government has decided that this late night, coal is still needed for germany for the energy supplies because of the war in ukraine. they say we have no other choice, but to expand this mine for the moment. so this village here, little hard, as you can see, it's now going to be demolished. there's a lot of heavy equipment, bull doses here as well as i have to say to police is making a quite some progress here in this last few hours. a lot of police have already moved in way into the village, but what they'll find there is a lot of activists high up in trees. 10 to 20 meters high in 3 houses and also on the roofs everywhere. so they will have to get some, some special skills to get them out. rebels is he up, is northern to guy region of began handing in their heavy weapons to the federal army. it's part of the piece to you're signed in south africa,
5:09 pm
more than 2 months ago. to end to you conflict. the terms of that agreement include disarming the rebels, restoring federal authority to gray, and reopening humanitarian access and the region. the un estimates half a 1000000 people have died from violence and starvation during the conflict. hundreds of thousands have been forced from their homes that govern. michael is an activist and associate editor of to hat. so website, the documents, crimes into grey explains why the to grind rebels agreed to disarm they have to accept what to what has been put to them now is the trickling of a exchange. the total disarmament of. ready forces the only posted, protecting the tracking, but again it be bought by every day . now the immense amount of suffering, right, in terms of trying to get them to go the basic necessities for medicine. one thing
5:10 pm
understood right people simply desperately hoping that the chapel and the community we learn some sort of a with, with feeling so much that people could play around with now they have to simply succumb to whatever demand of them and hope that something would happen. no one knows what's going to happen to the members of the spec because forces, so it could be agreement fine in africa to include likely in i will be it that would be what the amendment and demobilization and the read the question. so they have agreed that they will be re integrated into the apartment just by barry better unlike any men, the opposite guy would find the idea of joining the forces,
5:11 pm
re tens of thousands of the woman that they would join into that. so i don't see that, i mean that they talk reintegration would be different pulses still had an artist why tens of thousands of opposition supporters have gathered in the bangladesh capital at a holy time in the indian hima lazarus thinking. and now hundreds of families are being forced to leave the ah ah, there is some danger, it's cold on the way for of harness dawn and pockets on however, one those details coming up in one sack. but a bit of a reversal for northern parts of india were dropping those cold snap warnings. and same goes for the foggins fog here as wall windsor picking up and
5:12 pm
a few showers. so that's helping to freshen up the atmosphere. winds in karachi. likely gus seen to about 50 kilometers per hour on thursday, so that's gonna wipe out the foggins fog there. but we are dragging down colder air from siberia to watch this waking up on friday morning. mine is 24 in cobble. we will be approaching near record lows for the month of january, so we'll keep tabs on that quite unusual. rain falling at this time, the year for southern vietnam. at least this much rain hurts him in city, picked up 3 months worth of rain over the last few days. in time there's been relentless frame from sabu city to devour. it's just got this rain swirling around here. it has prompted, extreme flooded visor is now for indonesia, his main island of javert, just a few showers. i think the bigger pulses of rain will be on march or island on thursday and across china. high temperatures here. but we know what goes up must come down. so awaken up on sunday morning snow, cross the yang, super valley not too far away from shanghai.
5:13 pm
ah, a ah. ah. lou. oh,
5:14 pm
you want to, you know, just either a reminder of our top story is this our, the u. s. federal aviation administration says all flights are resuming after a pause because of a system failure. tens of thousands of plays were grounded. white on says there's no evidence of a cyber attack. at least 7 people have been killed to the afghan capital in a suicide explosion. there's a foreign ministry office. last report, something happened when a chinese delegation was meeting the taliban at the foreign ministry. these in germany are evicting climate activists from a village to a lot of the expansion of an open pit. coal mine, a coach rejected the protesters request to stay. okay, from warner breaking you story, these flights that have been posed in the us, we're going to speak to hydro castro, at reagan international airport in virginia. we were talking to our correspondent earlier on who was in el paso. he's about 7 o'clock in the morning. there he said that wasn't, wasn't much of an impact. bear on the flights, it's 9 am, i think,
5:15 pm
or 914 where you are. what's been happening, where you are on the east coast to work around here in the reagan national airport in d. c. it's coming slowly back to life like a normal morning on a week day however, you'll see the plains behind me. they have been grounded all morning. i still have not seen any takeoffs since this grounding was lifted, which happened about 20 minutes ago, a little bit ahead of schedule as the f a had the operations were slowly resuming and that now all of those ground stops on domestic departures in the u. s. have been listed and so on the screen now where i'm seeing all the departures that had been delayed. there still many delays of those scheduled flights that having been pushed back and but very few cancellations. and i'm a lot of relief on travelers faces as they walk by as they're checking the board.
5:16 pm
but is this the end of the problem? it's still may be too early to tell, given that all of this could create a domino effect. there were 21000 flight schedule to depart u. s. airports today. some nearly 4000000 travelers expected to be aboard. so there is potential that this several hours delay in the morning in which basically all traffic was stopped. could have major domino effect down the road, hopefully not certainly among american travelers who had a very tough holiday season just weeks ago. but still the biggest blooming question here is why did this happen? and at this point, according to the white house, that's still an unknown. again, president biden saying that there is no indication of a cyber attack causing the failure of the f, a notice to air mission safety program, which essentially outputs information to pilots before they take off with the most detailed and up to date safety information about the airports they will be landing
5:17 pm
in about flight conditions. well, that system failed for several hours this morning. which is why the essay put in place background stop. and now there has been after action report that has been ordered by the white house by the f a to see exactly why this happened. rob, i do. thank you very much indeed. how's your castle in virginia? ah, the crane says the fighting over the eastern times, a buck boat unsullied on the bloodiest battles of the war. so far. russian forces led by mercenaries from the wagner group. i've been trying to seize control of the area for months. moscow says it's units have cut off access to solar dot, but ukraine denies that. the salt mining time has fallen. motion media is released . these images of wagner lead edge of gainey, pretty costly in the mines. keep says the pictures were staged. natasha botha has more from cave the russian defense mystery saying that airborne washing airborne
5:18 pm
units have surrounded the town from the north and the south. earlier we heard of from the head of the russian mercenary, a group wagner, yevgeny, or gordon, who said that his fighters had taken control of the city even posted a photograph of himself alongside some of his troops saying he was in one of the town soap minds will that certainly has not been a confirmed or verified, but what we do know is that the ukrainian defense officials are saying none of this is correct. they are saying the ukranian forces are still fighting in the air. in fact, one top military official said fighting between ukrainian forces and russians was intense. he compared it to battles in a world war 2. it is a very difficult situation on the ground. we know that and in the past few days though, ratish officials from the ministry of defense have indicated that it's all
5:19 pm
a dog could indeed, perhaps fall into russian hands or shortly. now if that was to happen from the russian perspective, it would certainly be a something of a fig tree of bracken field gain, which they haven't had for many weeks and months. it would also allow them to focus more on the town of blackmore which isn't far from solar door. a victory there for them would be highly symbolic. ukrainian and russian forces have been locked in intense fighting there for many months indeed. okay, let me give you a closer look at russia's wagner. groups to private, part of military force was established in 2014 after moscow annexed crimea. the group was founded by russian businessman, if guinea precaution was close to president, vladimir putin is also got a catering business. and he was once called putin's chef. the wagner group recently recruited russian prisoners to fight in ukraine, promising they'd be free men on their return. if they survived, the groups also been active outside of ukraine. it's present in parts of the middle east and in west african countries such as molly and booking of fossil. and so as
5:20 pm
payment the group receives different sources of foreign incomes, including natural resources. russia and ukraine of agreed to a prisoner swap and a meeting between the countries, human rights officials in to keir, 80 people will be released in the exchange center quasi others got more for me stumble. this is not the 1st time that turkey has meditated between russia and ukraine in terms of prisoners swap, but also turkey has been many, a thing about reducing the tension between the 2 countries as well. apparently at what uncle has defined itself as a role in this conflict in its neighborhood. and the black sea is to be a balancing act between the warring parties to care has been very clear and very vocal about. it's a stance against the russian invasion of ukraine, a, but also to kia has provided a weapons like drones, arm phones,
5:21 pm
turkish may drones to crane, but also managed to mediate within the country. and that's why this position of turkey as a balancing factor has been appreciated. by most of the circles, especially at the time when true care lost credibility in international every now has a strange relations with the west, even with nato, as a strong member of nato. turkey has very high statements against the, against the start, a skull, the, the infrastructure of nato, but after this mediation effort, especially after the grain deal that was initiated by the united nations to give found itself a very secure, positional kelly results from beneath the election suggests the opposition will return to parliament for the 1st time in 4 years. democratic 128 seats of the 109 member assembly was borrowed from money in the last election in 2019. but the party won a quarter of
