foundations like yours, we listen when it comes to diversification, we don't do it in our 2 begets wrinkled, the rational energy source. we meet with global news makers and talk about the store. restock. madam, on al jazeera, the whole world is affected by them, and they influence each other. they are critical conditions for the survival of all life forms and a must for a sustainable human life. yet their equilibrium is threatened by crises all around the world. climate change and human rights are the focal discussion points of an international conference held by the national human rights committee in kotor, in partnership with ah a,

a show of solidarity. u. s. president joe biden makes an unannounced visits the ukrainian capital. meanwhile, you find ministers gather and brussels to discuss peace and security as the war in ukraine is. it's one near mom. ah, hello again, i missed how's your day this is out of their life and are ha, also coming up. rescue efforts wind down in turkey, 2 weeks after the earthquakes that killed more than 46000 people there and, and syria started well proceed. i know stanford know we're not going another chair is really, is protest as politicians here. the 1st reading of a controversial package of judicial reforms ah,

cave stands, ukraine stands and democracy stands. that was the message from u. s. president joe biden, as he made an unannounced trip to the ukrainian capital just days away from the 1st anniversary of the conflict. ah, ah, as you just had the air raid sirens founded across cheer, as biden and ukrainian president vladimir lensky walked through the streets of a very public show of solidarity. earlier and a drawn news conference biden announced a new military aid package worth $500000000.00. and the lansky says russia has no chance of winning. one year later, he stay. and ukraine says, democracy stands, the american stand with you, and the world stands with you. keith has captured

a part of my heart, i must say, what grange go, how many kinds can hidden awesome osama of tape, liddy. this was really the most important visit in the whole history of the ukraine u. s. relationship. this is a visit in this most difficult period for ukraine when ukraine is fighting for our own liberty as for the liberties of the world. and this underlines the results that we have already achieved, lee and the historic achievements we might gain altogether with the whole world or the united states, with euro ha, ha, ha ha, has worn out from keith. this is a very important and visit a for ukraine at that, at this particular time, i certainly jo biding arriving here, pledging more or weapons bridging more defense. financial support. pledging solidarity with ukraine is a very important president lensky, and probably feeling very satisfied that the u. s,

president from the heart of keith is announcing that he will gave more a long rage. ammunition artillery rounds a long range, missiles, b for the defense system. we've of the air surveys system war crucial military hardware that president valencia keeps on asking for over and over again. this is the only way ukraine can sustain this war, as in just a few days on february 24th. we reached the one year anniversary of this war, while alan fish joins us now from warsaw on the polish capital, allan biden was due there today. i believe that his detour wasn't too much in the surprise. while they were talking about this for a number of months and certainly in the days before the trip to poland, people were ascii through go to ukraine. the white house just simply wouldn't give an answer saying it wasn't on the itinerary that point. what is clear is that the

decision was made to go on friday, and then on saturday, joe biden was out as you expect to see him on a saturday or to a restaurant. he went to church as well. he then went back to the white house and at 415 on sunday morning, he to cough from joint base andrews, heading towards the polish border. now the white house decided to keep a very tight lid on this news as you would expect. the even put out a shadow for what joe biden would be doing in washington on monday, even though he was almost halfway around the world, by that point they'd say a template for how to get in to keep last year when the secretary of and the defense secretary visited essentially it was going to be an overnight train, a carriage reserved for a very small entourage travelling at with the president and then the the cottages was oars blackened out as well. so people couldn't see and to see who was traveling on the train. a joe biden was very keen to make this trip at to keith. we know that when he was here in poland last year he talked about it

a but the secret service at that point said it simply wasn't going to happen because they couldn't guarantee that can protect him this time they had a bit more lead time. so they were able to make arrangements, and of course, joe biden made a trip in to ukraine herself when she was visiting refugees back on mother's the, in me last year. so that's another reason why joe biden wanted to go. we knew he was going to make an announcement about what support he would give to the ukrainian half a $1000000000.00 is, is the so that it's going to be more actually more ammunition at the going to invite, how it serves and javelin anti tank missiles which the ukrainians, they have been very important in helping to repel russian attacks in various parts of the country. but what was significant is that joe biden said that there would be no new weapons being provided. so essentially, no new type of weaponry that ruled out the idea of the americans providing planes which is something that loaded mir zalinski has talked about not just one. he was

in washington dc in december, but in the months since as well. clearly, the americans wanted to make sure that there was going to be no problem of jo biden's visit. we have just confirmed from the white house in the last hour or so that there were talks with the russians a couple of hours before joe biden crossed the border to make sure there was no incidents or accidents that could lead to a greater conflict. but it was clear that joe boyd and wanted to go and express his desire to continue to support ukraine and the ukranian people armed forces on a pilot capital warsaw 5. thanks hannah john. what, meanwhile, your foreign ministers are meeting in brussels to discuss plans to supply more ammunition to ukraine. our different navigators are james base has more from the belgian capital solidarity and also support. and we've seen this similar patent, i think throughout this last year that keep keeps asking for things. europe says we'll think about it, delays for some time and then gives it. so we've seen

a progression from light weapons to heavy weapons to artillery tanks. now the focus is on potentially on fighter jets. that's the, the thing that the key is asking for now. and for now, the nato and european leaders are saying, well, we'll think about it, but not yet. but there is, i think, another urgent issue on the agenda, which is re supplying some of these weapons systems that are already there in terms of the ammunition. and the particular concern is about the artillery and the artillery shells. because currently we're told that the ukrainian artillery are using more shells at a faster rate than they can be manufactured by western factories. and what we've learned now is that there's going to be a meeting in the next 24 hours. that's going to take place here in brussels, the e, u. nato. we think the ukrainians, we understand it's supposed to be the foreign minister caliber. we're not sure whether i'll make it back and keep in in time, but an important meeting in 24 hours time to try and solve this issue,

or try and get some progress on this issue of re supply of ammunition and particularly artillery shells to the frontline particularly in the east of ukraine and as part of our special coverage, marking a year into the ukraine war, our environment had had a nick clark or be exploring how it's been a major setback as well, and fight against climate change. change in on monday at 16 betty g and t and also at 2020 on tuesday. ah well it's now been 2 weeks since 2 powerful earthquakes had southern to kia and northern syria coming at least 46000 people. many more are still missing, but rescue efforts have been scaled down and trickier and aid convoy from doctors without borders has also entered northwestern syria, where millions have been left homeless. the world health organization says 26000000

people in both countries, desperately need help. well, let speak to sammy as they're down his in the dark, in turkey, that's not far from the syrian border. so i'm, you know, you've been visiting some pretty remote villages that what have you been seeing and hearing wellness here you see, and you hear stories of need stories of loss and they are various and it feels like they are on ending as you go into different places some of them, as you mentioned, remote villages or whether they are in major urban centers or places like this from the outskirts of god, the pep know the all the at the center of the 1st earthquake you are constantly reminded you are constantly approach my people asking for assistance in help now has to be said, the authorities have been working tirelessly to get 8 into people. you can see where i am here right now. the camp that's been set up a tent camp fair to how's both the syrian refugees who've been displaced

again by an this time by an earthquake, there on my right, your screen left. and on the other side, you've got a camp of this place. turkish people. when you walk through the camp, people will talk to you about how they need. well, the basic needs are taken care of. they have blankets, they have even electricity. now we've noticed a lot of electric cables have been wired to these people. that's a, obviously a good find. they've, hopefully they've got sufficient heating. they've posted here, it's for the fiber gay trucks to keep an eye and all of this electric cabling. and what's going on and make sure people are not using themselves in a way that it's dangerous to anyone. they've got food, they've got clothes, we saw even medical vans pulling up here to give people shots. but the fil, a lot of needs. i mean, just think about the basic one, which is your need for a home. again, it's one thing to be out in attendance. another thing to have

a home and a lot of people have been left homeless because of this terrible earthquake and their phones. he's now putting a lot of focus on cleaning up the rubble and trying to build what they call in contain a cities they're aiming to construct a 100000, contain the units within 2 months. and then you go out into the remote places and then that's another level some of these remote places haven't received the sort of media attention that areas like this have some of the urban areas have. well, we were honored to have the opportunity to go aboard a military helicopter and visit some of these remote villages like old flukes. sadly, we were not able to get out of the helicopter during that a delivery mission by and so we got in the car and we drove back to o clue. it was a very long and hard journey, but we wanted to find out the story behind the faces we saw from the helicopter there. mountains, snow,

and freezing wind. the road to old lou has little comfort to offer. it's long winded and climbed tiring lea. i'm not sure to row to total devastation should look like, but the scenes along the way give plenty of ideas. the village is nestled on a mountain peak, and southeastern, to a kia. it's a hard place to reach by road. a few days ago, we briefly visited the village on board, the military helicopter, sent to deliver aid a military. i'll take a look where the village people soon appeared, but we were asked to stay on the helicopter and not delay the mission. we left with many unanswered questions, ready in a most of the ha moment because i want to get out to those. so we've now come back to the village my road to find those answers. as soon as we arrive, we find out lu in morning. noisy for going out is receiving condolences after

losing her daughter and 3 grandchildren earlier stick and we were terrified we couldn't escape. i fell down the stairs. it was shaking so badly that wherever you look, the earthquake has left its mark on the landscape on houses. and of course on people's minds. authorities say they're going to start reconstruction efforts in a matter of weeks. but clearly it's going to be a long process to insane for elephant baton. cache time is in short supply. we caught a glimpse of bottle the day we flew in on a helicopter. we tracked him down to hear his story. made him. oh gosh, it. what do i do? where shall i go? i will. yes, my blood pressure is rising. i am ill. de leon? amber? distractor was my right hand. it's gone her li, i build this house. i invested in this house. it's all gone,

but i'm 8 years old. senior bo about all right. yeah. for the elderly couple live alone in a tent supplied by the authorities for her home and her sense of security like crushed outside. it's difficult to imagine the terror people felt as their homes came crashing down. unless you're mohammed shaheen. the 16 year old miraculously survived not only the earthquake, but 2 days trapped in the rubble of his own home. papa, monsieur, i heard a terrible sounds like an explosion yet. i fell off my beds and it went dark nightstand. there was a lot of dust and there was a concrete block on me as i could not feel my feet from the cold. and i thought i was going to die. memories like that a hard to a raise from your mind. this is a teenager who dreams of a little piece of mind and a little more food in his tent. it yes sir. they just, we just needs a little more grains and water and give it sheila love them. priorities are

delivering food tents and on this day, firewood to a moment of relief for fun, for the kids much harder to deliver on the back of a truck though, the blades of our helicopter did the trick a few days earlier. it's heartbreaking. no more galvan really quickly while waving out of that day we couldn't do more than exchange away from the window almera thought of us. but to day we exchange hugs on the same spot. a smile, a laugh, and a little light brightens up the horizon. well clearly it's gonna take a while to rebuild the homes for some of the people who lost their homes like elephant. but paul like cache. and when you listen to what authority is a saying, the saying a 118000 buildings will have to be demolished. that's going to take a bit of a while before the reconstruction effort can provide new housing to people. a hand

you back now to the stars here in doha, sani, thanks so much time as a down there and her daughter into care for us. mostella had here on out as in more on how illegal israeli settlements are affecting the land and resources of palestinians. any occupied westbank or north korea warns of turning the pacific into a firing range after launching projectiles. for the 2nd time in 3 days. ah ah, there was recently a tropical circulation not far from the philippines. you see swiftly weighing going north now leaving you rather dry. i say a pretty good forecast for the philippines and if you followed for the size, it's rather intense and for thunderstorms in devout southern philippines,

down through maybe towards to the way they miss patrick west. papua seed a heavy rain. same is true. java and southern sumatran parts of borneo. that's not unusual for this time of the year. we got the right break of wintry weather, at least for the 1st half of tuesday across the home. she because the wind is coming across the open water from a cold environment, it's not extremely cold. and the suns out elsewhere in a good part of china with clyde invading bringing some light rain along the western side of the yankee in some snow. of course, where it's high enough in sichuan for example. by that time, this is wednesday, we've cut off the supply of cold air, so there's no bowl to come. no more snow shouts, at least for home shoot, took you at 9 degrees in the sunshine. the sun charged intense in india generates a few showers in the northeast. really go to the foothills of the himalaya. the story really is that of increasing temperatures in gutierrez, in some parts of central unsub pakistan. we seen reco breaking highs in february, and he continues, ah,

a with ah ah ah,

hello, they are watching al jazeera. i'm an associate hey here in durham, let's remind you about top stories. u. s. president joe biden has made an unannounced trip to the ukranian capital, keith just days out from the 1st anniversary of the conflict. biden says the u. s. will provide ukraine with a new military aid package worth $500000000.00. ukrainian president wrote me a savanski, says russia has no chance to win the. meanwhile, you foreign ministers have been meeting in brussels to discuss the war in ukraine. they have concerns that china is reported, considering sending alms to russia. rescue efforts and turkey are winding down 2 weeks now off to those devastating quakes. turkish emergency services, accordion and almost all search and rescue acids. more than 46000 people have been killed across to kia and syria or tens of thousands of people right now are protesting outside israel's parliament, against the government's judiciary reforms. they have already been weeks of rally

is against the move, which would allow the kinessa to re legislate or struck down by the supreme court. amongst other changes. if going through her rule, it doesn't really difference if there is no. are you going with the calls? is it once without and limitations? it also is good, a good everyone for the reforms. what gave politicians significantly more power and the courts much less. the bill proposes giving the kinessa the power to override supreme court decisions with a simple majority of $61.00 votes and would give politicians the power to choose which judges to appoint. currently, judges are selected by an independent panel. the changes would also remove the supreme court's ability to review the legality of what's known as israel's basic laws, which ultimately function as the countries constitution. president isaac hertzog, has vocally imposed the changes saying that the plan is pushing israel to the verge of legal and social collapse. he called on the 1st reading to be postponed. sir.

talks could be held with the opposition to come to a compromise. well, let's bring in michael's farm. he isn't as really lawyer and a commissioner at the international commission of jurists. he joins us now from tel aviv. my, who we've already seen more laws in recent weeks, the target palestinians. what might a weaker supreme court mean for then going forward? well, 1st of all, i think come this said legal revolution if indeed implemented a 4 hour every practical a meta will create a new, a completely different to israel. it will be a regime change. and in which are there will be only effectively one arm of government, only the executive because the courts and, and the legislator will be completely controlled and dominated by the executive by the government and done these re supreme court. while it was a collaborator for the last 6 decades of the up, ah, of the policies that the israeli government consecutive governments and the

security establishment have implemented in the occupied palestinian territory. it, nevertheless has been a moderating factor. and in some instances, and on some topics, 8th protected rights of palestinians. one notable is the issue of private a property. so time and again, israel settlers with the aid and support of a certain is really a government's i've tried to take over private palestinian lens that are register ah, in the, in the land registry in time. and again, these re, supreme court has overruled and, and revoked such a confiscations, if they're the, the changes what the proponents of this revolution called called reforms. but they're not a foreigner and regime change if they are implemented. we will not have a judiciary that would allow or mitigate the vast and massive rights abuse of

palestinians. and that isn't full agreement within the leadership there. right. the president isaac hats, hong he wants to legislation faison. he wants talk to the opposition. is any of that likely to happen? it doesn't seem like that the a coalition that the current government has a, an automatic majority in parliament and with that majority, they actually can go ahead and, and a legislator, the full garage offer of her powers that they want to do to allow the government to have instead of the judiciary, but not only instead of the judiciary. in fact, what they want is to have a system in which the majority could do anything. it once, almost without any a checks and knocked almost, but without any checks and balances on the rights of the minority. and there are different parts in the coalition, and each shea fragment has their own interests,

why they are in this. but it has to be understood that a big part, a huge part of this revolution is, are pursued in order to allow the 4th day, you're annexation of the west bank creation, over large apartheid regime in which the us, the settlers enjoy a superiority by law. and the palestinians are inferior and with no civil rights at my thinking here is the phase regime change. now, if there's no, as are there to turn given how wide ranging now, do you think there may be any kind of reputational cost for, as an well, we're seeing already that in certain times there are some a costs diplomatic costs, but also economic costs. um, i mean, look one of the biggest, a strengths that israeli governments have had in internet in their

international relations is the image. and i and i 1st image of israel as a democracy as. busy vibrant, western liberal democracy, i have issues with that a definition, but in any event, this is an image that israel enjoyed for decades and allowed it to garner support and enable it to go after some of the most abusive, the policies that any like our nation. and all michael, i'm afraid we're going to have to leave it there. and michael's father and israeli neu, on a commissioner at the international commission of juris. thanks so much for joining us, michael. and that's because i want to learn, as thanks so much i want to look at the number of israeli settlers that have been moving into illegal settlements. that's quadrupled. and the last 30 years, more than 700000 israel is now living in their settlements. and the occupied west bank and palestinian sites, costing them land and resources needed. abraham reports amicably,

hat is one of only a few palestinian bedouins left in the mazda jet india in the occupied west bank. their lifestyle depends on hurting livestock, but it's now under threat. over the last several years, israeli settlers have begun establishing hurting, and farming outposts for him. the hat that means half of the lands available for grazing are now off limits. simeon shepherds see settlers often attack them and their flocks with them if they don't want any bedouins here. if someone protects me and my life soccer, we won't leave, will be reassured if peace activists come and help us expose israel. those settlers are not just crazy people on the lose. this isn't israeli policy. let's is that some of those who attack his family come from supplement outposts like this one. it's been expanding into more palestinian lands since it was established in 2004

palestinian say they've gotten used to the cycle. the more violent satler's exercise, the faster they get pushed off of their lands, all his elements together, they're supposed to close jericho. jericho wound expensive, and not do africa has been monitoring supplement expansion for more than 2 decades . the road there was in his research shows how those outputs are used to take more palestinian lands. he says the way they spread out is not random. 77 subtler forming outputs have been established in the occupied westbank. 66 of them during the last decade. although they are not recognized by the israeli government, they receive funds and services from governmental bodies. grazing has played an important role in this, reminding the location. atkins says, farming outposts are used to control palestinian lands that build up settlements cannot. most of visit settlers, which hard dwelling invisible,

they belong to the most extreme and most violent sector within bays rarely settlements. in order to establish such an open need to be willing to use a lot of to exercise a lot of balance palestinian fantasy and herders are not going to live or learn unless they are frightens. 45, these are now in this area that's down from 75 just over a decade ago. many were forced to give up their better when lifestyle altogether. those who remain peter, it's only a matter of time. need that but him al jazeera the occupied west bank. well, japan is calling for an emergency un security council meeting after north korea's launched a series of massage of its east coast mom and val has more. north korea says these are the pictures of its latest missile tests on sunday. south korea, japan say the weapons launched were short range, ballistic missiles. on saturday,
