driving ash with sports. nigeria suffer a shock, defeat an african qualifying, but no problems for france. and then you count from cannon and back. they also belgium is bite, sighed softly. you are 2020 full qualifying campaigns with with ah, hello. it's just passed 1300 hours g m t and the world health organization says rapid response. teams are being deployed to tanzania to investigate an outbreak of the marburg virus disease. the health care teams will conduct contact tracing and affected areas and assist local personnel. the w h o says it's assessing the risk of a firm or outbreak in townsend e o. at least 12 people have died since the new outbreak began their and equitorial guinea, kenya, and uganda, are now in high alerts and have started screening travelers on their borders with tons. and let's take a closer look at the outbreaks of the marburg virus disease is rare. but highly

contagious, the illness begins abruptly with high fever, muscle pain, diarrhea, and vomiting. it's often transmitted to people from fruit bats and then spreads through human to human transmission. b, w h o says the marburg virus kills about half the people it infects, but the fatality rate can go as high as 90 percent. there are no vaccines or approved anti viral treatments at the moment. benson morocco is a public health specialist on promoter at oxford, kenya. he says, marburg spread is associated with travel and as a cause of concern, what the common government is doing is i'm here. mostly it is actually, i tend to measures full screening and they put centers and encouraging people who are actually presenting the symptoms to to go fall, i need treatment and management. then yes, tell facilities. the detection can only be done on

a level 3 measurement. so thorough investigation. so what is holding coverage is that in the past on the channels are presenting the delay fever and bidding them on history of travel to tanzania. talk to the present to the facility who can actually to get farther and to deliberate investigation tool. actually distinguish relates to my book virus or any other disease that easily spread from human to human. it's actually close associated with anal travel. so that's what, that's what chile is, what is that wasn't a story. and that's where you really concerned because of the human traffic between king it turns into gamma. and more for because of the, you know, informally, you know, and put us borders on the lake and land people are really wanted because this is the 1st time on a specific getting kinda, we've had this maybe no other plant in other countries, a specific and i've actually had experience this, but in kenya we've never had

a guess of america diseases. so people are really concerned and most of the actually have our i to be concerned because they this is a highly contagious. somebody the hey, for tele, do it at least $34.00 people are missing after a boat carrying mostly african asylum seeker, a st. off the coast of tennessee. the coastline of facts has become a major departure point for micro tied into europe. this is the 5th such incident in just 2 days, according to officials there. the international organization for migration is called the central mediterranean, the most dangerous migration route in the world. and it's also become the most commonly used route for migrants going to europe. conflict has driven a growing number of people from african countries to seek new lives there. in the 1st 2 months of this year, nearly $16000.00 migrants arrived on italian shores, felix wise as a spokesperson for see watch. he says,

a joint european approach is needed to tackle the migrant crisis. 41 bullets and told to try to cross the mediterranean sea yesterday at 41 and only 2 n g o boats rack. and this is definitely a lack of rescue capacity, which is coming from the italian and also from the european union, which is trying to block rescue capacities and rescue ships in a while, which is now leading to this well, as i said, lack of capacities. we're just now leading to the strategies. what we see is that the coast guard is quite active, but only in front of the lumpkins as though they normally don't leave out for more than 30 miles from italian mainland and the boats that we want to see right now that i kept sizing, maybe happening in an international water and in the middle basically route. so they hadn't caused got us quite used when it comes to this, both these rescue operations and the only acceptable solution would be more and you all boards or an entire organ,

organized european rescue organization. the problem basically currently is the amount of both that we have to deal. so when i talk about 41 volts, it's completely overwhelming also for and your just in general. so what we do basically, what we need is a state rescue organization program which is controlling the situation and is able basically to perform rescue an acceptable manner at the moment to the united states. now where at least $23.00 people had been killed off, her tornado ripped through mississippi winds of more than a 100 kilometers per hour, tor roofs, from houses uprooted trees and knocked out power. there were reports of hale, the size of golf balls, and people in the path of the storm are being urged to take cover, or weather presenter. jeff harrington is joining us now with more than this. so jeff, how bad is it and, and is it going to get much worse? you know, during catastrophic destruction is really the only way i can think of putting it.

so we are starting to get some of the pictures into our newsroom right now. this is in silver cities, so it's north of mississippi state capital jackson. this town just flattened and you know, you can just look at these pictures and say, ok, that was an f 3 f for that is now what investigators will look at the enhance fujita scale. they'll come through the debris to determine that. so we'll find out soon enough. now it took a snapshot of the radar. this was friday evening around 9 or 10 pm. look at the dark of the blue and yellow. that's intense rain mixed in thunderstorms mixed into that super cell thunderstorms. that's where you get the rotation and that's where you get the tornado. and this energy is pivoted during asked the question, where is it going? north and east. that's where it's going to travel to. but let's talk about this set up here. how did this happen? so for that we've got to go to the rockies, we've got cold air, just rushing off of the rockies here. it's moving to the east, so we'll put this into motion. you know, mixed in is some remnants of california is atmospheric river. so we are packing

quite a punch off of the rockies when that cool air starts to sleep out. so it moves to the east, it meets up with warm air being pumped up from the gulf of mexico. and when those to collide, that's when you get the severe thunderstorms that have lined up here. and you know, during, we are not out of the woods yet over the course of the weekend. certainly we could see some more tornadoes in this exact same zone. wow. ok, jeff, thank you. we'll keep us across the story. jeff, thank you so much. so we're say we are reporting that at least 23 people have been killed as a result of those tornadoes. let's bring in. she have returned to joining us from washington. d. c. she have what her official se the devastation is immense and is interesting. we just saw pictures that from silver city, but it appears that the town that really check a direct hips was rolling fork, about half an hour, south west of silva city. these are rural towns in the mississippi, delta,

good proportion, a mobile homes, a good proportion of people living below the poverty line, enormous devastation. it struck in the evening. and as we often had actually, we had quite recently during cycling friday in southern africa when, when these extreme weather events happen at night and in the evening, people don't often hear the warnings or they're asleep and therefore it can cause many more fatalities. and you might, might expect people that necessarily evacuated, but rolling fork is where it was saying that the, the majority of the casualties, the authorities that are saying 13 that alone, that to that and, and silver city apparently is the latest we've had with people still trapped in their homes, a search and rescue operations on the way. but there are other questions too. and of course, yeah. and obviously throughout were track of the storm and the tornadoes. we are getting pictures and reports of down how down the power lines. people are about $100000.00 people without power and the south roof is taken off houses and in towns like rolling folk, at least in time, blocks just gone according to the mad because because of a,

the strength of the winds. what's fascinating, that is what we're trying to figure out now is whether, although there was 11 tornadoes were reported over the course of last 24 hours, at least i'm saying that number actually go up already. the question is whether the tornado that did the most of the damage had an incredibly long track and just kept touching down. when you look at the, the real damage on the 20 days have been reported. it does seem to be following one track going north, northeast, and the question is about whether this very powerful tonight i was just wreaking havoc across several 100 kilometers as it, as it moved towards the northeast. but we're just the meter, logical officials, and i'll just begin to assess what exactly you know was this one. tornado was a several tornadoes and the strength of the tornado. ok, she thank you so much. you have her time see reporting from washington, d. c. well, the u. s. in canada have agreed to close the loop pool on immigration that allowed thousands of asylum seekers to cross their border. if you're trying to you,

you will be arrested. go to then you got to get it up. you have to go to the point of entry over there at the immigration, close to $10000.00 migrants. i've used an illegal channel that links new york state in the province of quebec. since the start of the year, president joe biden made an official visit to canada where illegal border crossings was top of the agenda. alan fisher report it may just be 24 hours, but you'll brightness hoping he's accomplished a lot from his 1st official visit to canada. since winning the white house at a time when new alliances are being forced elsewhere. this was about showing one of the oldest links in the world is still strong. both sides are putting the best spin the can on the visit, which brought a face to face, sit down, and then address to the canadian parliament. americans and canadians are 2 people to country in my view sherry one heart, but there are tensions,

not least at the border crossings from america into canada. i know it historically high levels. one point between new york state and quebec. a hot spot, even in winter, that both countries have agreed that can turn away would be asylum seekers. in exchange, kinda double accept 15000 more central and south american migrants through legal channels. our border is no longer just the place where we meet each other. it's the place where we will meet the moment to leaders also addressed issues like climate change, the water new crane, and the growing threat from china to spy berlin that flew over america recently before being short don't cross canadian airspace. suspending, more than defense has become a priority. as, as paying attention to existing allies, we have, you know, significantly extended our alliances. i haven't seen that happen with china and russia or anybody else in the world. we're in a situation united states,

we're nato, a stronger. we're all together. the g 7 acquired asi and japan, and korea place was donald trump visited canada in 2018. he tweeted out an attack on the prime minister after he left the warm smiles and farm handshakes. this time round, suggest relations between the 2 countries are better, but they still have issues that haven't disappeared. allen fisher, i'll just talk to people have been found dead in 13 other a suffering illness inside a sweltering train car in southern texas. there believes to be migrant to cross into the united states from mexico. the us border patrol stopped the train on friday, and anonymous emergency call told police that the train contains a group of migrants. they nearly suffocated as temperatures in the area reach 30 degrees celsius. an investigation into the incidence has been opened once more had on the al jazeera in his hour, including the aim is to offer some kind of light if even if it is temporary,

reports, he served more than a year of a 25 year prison sentence after a rwandan court convicted him on terrorism charges. now paul recess, a beginner, is a free man. 2 years ago, he refused to participate in court proceedings. write scripts, and observers said the trial was a sham because also some of the ha, ha ha sward to the old. how b denito did want done the government? because guzman, on it does not order to criticism. and so it showed the right to the, to the system or for wonder of the big scottish, it does while the good i've been fighting for, for human rights. wonderful democracy in her wanda, and he didn't even try to become fiction really excite nearly 20 years earlier. he became famous when the hollywood film her tell, rhonda told his his credited with saving more than 1200 lives during

rwanda's 1994 genocide. more than half a 1000000 tutsis and many his were killed by a who to militia during a civil war. the rondon patriotic front led by pork a gun may want the war and took power. carmella to became president and recess of beginner became his critic. rhonda accused him of supporting an armed group that wanted to overthrow the government. we have maintained. oh, serious concerns about this case, especially as with regards a political violence, but i'm groups including those that are led by people operating from develop countries. but are we have a no agreed on? no one on one fundamental o principles. and are we able to to, to move forward with this sir humanitarian relief, recessive. again, a has belgian citizenship and was a resident of the u. s. 3 years ago. he was deceived. into boarding

a plane in to buy and later appeared in wanda's capital kigali in handcuffs. right script say he was kidnapped. rwanda's government says his sentence has been commuted after a presidential order. barbara and groper alto, sarah leaders from spanish and portuguese speaking nations, have gathered in the dominican republic for talks. representatives from 22 countries are attending the barrow america summits. the agenda is expected to be dominated by post pandemic, economic recovery, the war and ukraine and climate change. that is where our latin america, editor of the see a new man is joining us from a, from santo domingo. you're covering the summits. tell us who's in attendance and who's not and what do we expect to come out at the summit? what hearst of all, we're not quite sure who is in attendance and who is not a writ initially. the president of the class, my little of venezuela,

was not going to come, but we did here overnight that he is coming. we don't know yet though whether he's landed, the summit itself is just about to start directly behind me. you can see the of the conference room of the foreign ministry here where some of the heads of state are beginning to trickle in. it's starting late as a lot of things have been starting since the heads of state arrived here. most of them last night, and that's because one of the key of that one of the key things that they do at the summit is not what we see. it's not what we hear. it's not what comes out in the declarations, but rather what is said behind closed doors in bilateral meetings between them. we've been told that that is one of the things that they get out of these meetings . because it's an, especially after the pandemic which has not allowed for heads of state of the region and of spain and portugal to really talk face to face. there are a lot of things certainly to talk about. there are

a lot of conflicts in this region. and this is one of the 1st opportunities that they're going to have to discuss those without the prying eyes of journalists, whom as you can see, were being kept at more than at arm's length from where this is all happening. the dominican republic, the 1st colony of the americans founded by spain in 1492 to day it's hosting the 27th i barrel. american summit. a forum for leaders of latin america, spain, portugal, and then dora $22.00 countries in all on the agenda, climate change, food security, migration, and strategies for regional integration to confront them. a persona professionally nakamura, these leaders are supposed to make sure that you want me to provide birth as my work. no money. how can people feed themselves? that's why so many people leave our country. 65 year old lisa says, unemployment is made worse by the number of undocumented workers who come here from

neighboring haiti. all say, i mean that even the presidents should unite, have dialogue and reach agreements so that we aren't strung along to deal with the burden of haitian immigration because it's a problem for all of us. also on the agenda is a new source of inequality. the lack of digital access, affecting more than 150000000 latin americans. there's no way in which jeremy country does more than worry with it. they get the root can really get into all the opportunities for okay, home for dogs, for employment. good job. if you don't have broadband rub, it says o at fridays a barrel, american business forum, many investors, especially from spain, saw the problem as an opportunity. the point of these summit is to agree on common solutions to global problems. i say am we bogo and t live the more from a very recently we suffered from enormous wildfires and we received help from the

international community, especially from a barrow america level that demonstrates the importance of our integration bra. but it's proving difficult. the truth is that this is not a very propitious time for regional unity and not because of ideological differences. as in the past. the red carpet may be out welcome, visiting dignitaries, but the fact that many of the leaders in specially the to president of the regions largest economies are not coming does not bode well for i bureau american cooperation. for those leaders, domestic rather than regional matters are taking priority. so they will have no say here and yet another. so an issue is agreement on how to deal with the tax against human rights in the garage block of salvatore in cuba through and venezuela, which are also posing devices get another sign of trouble times in the americas. she and human al jazeera santo domingo and speaking again about venezuela and

president, my ludo. the fact that he is coming is quite novel. he has not attended a regional forum for a very, very long time. so this will be an opportunity for some of the heads of state, for example, the president of chile to tell him face to face about the concerns over upcoming elections and the conditions for those elections in venezuela. the foreign minister of nicaragua is here, lula of brazil did not come originally. he didn't come because he was going to go to china. he preferred that rather than to be here with his regional colleagues. but he had now has announced that he has pneumonia like as of pneumonia and won't be traveling to beijing until tomorrow. also, the president of mexico did not come no explanation. so, as i was saying earlier, that does not bode well. this is supposed to be a form where things actually get done. we'll see at the end of the day just how

much they can agree on. thank you so much. lucy newman, a u. s. cord has heard the 1st guilty plea in the case of the assassination of the haitian president jovan elmo ease, where the jar a duel, haitian chile and citizen entered the plea on 3 charges. on friday. he acknowledged that he provided money to pay for weapons, food and lodging for others, suspected of shooting louise in 2021. the country, his struggle to cope with rising gang violence and political instability over the past 2 years. silicon valley pioneer an intel co founder gordon moore has died at his home in hawaii, age 94. the american engineer help companies bring ever more powerful chips to increasingly smaller computers. his famous observation, known as moore's law, predicted the capacity and complexity of integrated circuits with double every year . he co founded in cell 3 years later in 1968. now many of the soldiers

fighting to defend ukraine from russia has never been into battle before the war began. and now they are spending months on end. on the front lines, it's put them under a significant mental strain. stephanie decor report from keith on a program aimed at helping them deal with the trauma of war. fair, exhausted after 3 months on the front lines around that moved. this battalion is now rotated out. but just for a short while. these ukrainian soldiers have been chosen to join an animal therapy session. they've been showing symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, depression, sleepless nights, lip. you just feel calmer on animals and animal is gentle to you. it comes you. oh leg has been in the army since 2014 war is not new to him. we ask him what it is like in the motor. that what it didn't, which he doesn't want to talk about it. the mental toll this war is taking on

countless soldiers is not something widely talked about. the scale is still unknown . programs like this are not that common but it's a start. when a blue rodge seed, the wallet is the raja when they arrive here they attends may be a little apprehensive because they don't know what will happen. but after a few hours they forget everything within they managed to relax and got some new positive emotions. sometimes their eyes light up like childs some say their sleep improved off to this leave of the rolling of this program ultimately connects them with horses and it's called hipaa therapy. it feels a world away from the frontline, all part of a therapeutic process, which ultimately has the mounting up. the soldiers have never ridden a horse before and now this program runs twice a week and it's never the same group that passes through the aim is to offer some kind of light relief even if just temporary, as they will be returning to the front lines in just a few days, there is

a scientific formula to this. we're told there with when you're on a horse, every muscle of your body is working. you have to find your balance to not full. you have to focus on your body. that's what we're aiming for with the horse, because if a person is under stress, they don't feel their body, they're numb. there are lots of soldiers with signs of p t s t. so we work on that . a child like moment of relief for men who carry the burden of defending their country. we ask if it is helped me of them in this lady, do you know what happened? i feel quite different. it is incompatible here to rest physically and mentally. it's, it's totally different from their maybe it's hard. you don't think you do your job . that's it. ukrainians too are dying in large numbers. the exact figure is hard to verify. oh, leg tells us they need more support around that route. well, it was so i see that we are not super bed. we need more hardware. we don't have as

much training as we should. men are fighting who have never served in the army. he says they are due to return to the frontline on saturday, but keep the tspra that is that he tells us an affectionate moment like this providing all to fleeting comfort. we filmed these men a few days ago. they are now back on the frontline stephanie decker al jazeera keith firefighter is in spain have contained the 1st major wildfire of the year. the flames spread through the eastern valencia region, destroying more than 4000 hector as a forest. they force $1500.00 people to abandon their homes meteorologist say the weather will be dryer and hotter than usual this spring along spain's northeastern mediterranean coasts. while severe thunderstorms are producing violent weather and south asia, just back with your world. whether update are they're good to be with you. well,

a display of israeli flags of protests is the expression of the deep sense of patriotism among those taking part. but now even that flag has a different meaning to different people. one of his roles most well known political columnist gideon levy says political divisions have always existed. israel never decided what it wants to be are we are european western liberal society. i, we em, oriental religious said traditional. busy society, are we secular or religious? our jewish almost slim or be national? i mean those question us so open because israel had not come into terms with its identity here in the occupied westbank israeli soldiers. thank god. but his role faces a crisis here as well. air force pilots and reservists are refusing to report for duty. the numbers are growing. and according to the israeli military,

it's ability to continue enforcing the occupation and ability to motel strikes and gaza will be severely impacted breaking. the silence is a group of former israeli soldiers this dedicated showing what its members say is the grim reality of israel's occupation of palestine. the fact the active soldiers refusing to serve has come as a surprise to them, to be honest, i am surprised by how fast refusing to serving the army. i became publicly legitimate in our society. and when it came to this issue of them with the shall overall, i think that it is a brave and it's an important way to non violently resist and protest policies that you are against. and it's not just military personnel. intelligence officers are also joining the protest movement, and that's unusual for people used to working in the shadows. here in tel aviv, if you could be forgiven for thinking it's business as usual. but the protesters

want to escalate and they are getting numbers out on the street. and their impact is being felt is being felt in the economy as people take time to protest. insecurity as soldiers refused to serve in the judiciary as your position fights with independence and in the government is becoming increasingly more hard line. as the weeks go on. israel is no more devoted than ever before. the american out 0 television india is leading opposition figure role gandhi says his expulsion from parliament on friday was politically motivated. gandhi was disqualified as an m p a day after he was sentenced to 2 years in jail for defamation. that case involves comments he made about prime minister under wind remedies, surname in 20. 19 gandhi says, the move is retribution for questioning modi's relationship with a business tycoon. i'm heard defending the democratic voice of the new people. i will continue to do that. i am not scared of

planned to equip the it delayed hospital. i'll submit this taking over many of the equipment we will be providing them a solid process started also some housing as well. so that the foundations like yours, that are n g o how, how, how are they actually stepping in to fill the humanitarian gaps that we see? we're obviously seeing and in syria and turkey as well as in your own country park . the sun. definitely see there are things which government must do that in pakistan, renaud, the situation is in a political situation and the system of the government some time is not working properly. so the n deals have to step in. we have a large base of volunteers in pakistan. at least 60000 workers were working on the ground during this a flood situation like sun. so we have

a fleet of doctors. we have mo, bile health units, especially the ladies who are in serious trouble, the lifeline, the pregnant ladies. so we are making things easy for them, providing them to service at the doorstep instead of bringing them to the hospital . the needs just keep increasing and this is what we hear from, from humanitarian organizations right around the world. if we look at pakistan for a moment, you are referring to the floods that are currently ongoing. you, you've raised a ramadan appeal for this year. what sort of response have you gotten from public wonderful response since over activities structured 10 years ago? this is the 1st, some is on which we have highest number of rupees raised among the

people. and they realize it properly, that python is in trouble and they are opening their hearts and providing them whatever the facilities bus be. even for jackie at quick rehab collected dance, we have collected huge amount for the people in turkey and in syria. right. so people are like some really generous and they are in a position to, to burnett at a large scale. ok. just chuck or we thank you so much for speaking to a phonology 0. thank you so much. now the vatican has returned 3 ancient fragments from the person on temple in athens to the greek government. the artifacts had been kept in nevada and for centuries it will increase pressure on the u. k. to return a much larger collection of marbles on exhibition in the british museum, they restrict out of the parthenon in the early 18, hundreds on the orders of

a scottish nobleman known as lord, elegant. and the number of german museums have agreed to return sacred objects looted from cameroon, during german colonial rule. but indigenous communities say the process, installing nicholas hoc reports from cameron's capital one day, 3000 miles from cameroon, locked in a museum in berlin, a centuries old data named in gonzo. the 1st time that i learned back console us in the museum. i was angry. i was totally angry. i was mad for the 2000000. and so people in cameron's english speaking region, the in guns a day, he was pillaged by german colonizers, tv, and job to is asking germany to release her. the question of justice. we have the rights to our heritage. the return of these object means that it's reawakening of, for the common person to think about identity to be on colonial boundaries. from

188421900. 16 cameroon was a colony of the german empire. at time of the bloody conquest and frequent rebellion this neighbourhood in downtown yolande is called a may key in the local language. it means a pond of blood communions. believe that this was a sight of a massacre committed in 1907 by the german colonial army. hundreds of people were killed and the local chief was beheaded. his head was then taken away to germany as the battle choked to this shape. germany has not publicly acknowledged the killing. germany has agreed to return to the looted colonial artifacts to africa. he didn't effort to confront some of the brutalities of its colonial history in the ability of just as well just to elect the german colonial army, identified the 2nd objects and would steal them intentionally to subdue the population rebels for like they had feel that german authorities have not returned

and go so yet, but the statue has been taken down from the exhibit in berlin's whom both for museum and job to says this is the 1st step in setting her free and for millions of . and so people to start re invoking their cultural identity. nicholas hawk al jazeera, joan de cameroon, was hovering in malaria wood. she's a journalist focused on arts and culture. she's joining us from lagos, get to have you with us on al jazeera. so culturally, how important is this return for cameron's identity for cameron's history under preservation of its culture? i mean, the report that we've just seen is so shocking the level of violence that who was involved. and what you're seeing, that is, is that what you're seeing there is a psychic dis, location for the people a violent break with the past. such that the people had little to build on and

humiliation cultural humiliation that has persisted for centuries. and this item, this active back coming back will be it, but i'm definitely in some kind of healing in that culture and to begin to attend, to rebuild, to rebuild on what has been lost. and so it's, it's all important. it's very, very important because it goes down to the root of the identity of the people, cried the pride and to restore a tool to make amends for the 2nd cause that's been done to the call to do you think that the tide is now turning and things are changing. is it becoming almost embarrassing for, for these countries who looted during their colonial rule to keep these artifacts it's become beyond embarrassing, we reached it to pinpoint the rest to shut it off. that african

african treasures. it's an idea whose time must come and increasingly the arguments for keeping these, these, those arguments are becoming increasingly 10. yes. and they indispensable the time really. there's no way back. so we've got to face this now and more and more institutions. a going to have to seriously look and engage with people from the cultures where these items have been taken. well, interesting point to make about the arguments that are put forward. i mean, if we look at countries like the united kingdom, it's known to be holding on to a collection of marbles from the 1800s from the parthenon, as i'm sure you're very well aware of the story. what is the argument that the u. k puts forward and do you think that the u. k will give these up if times are indeed

changing the l getting my own i used to live in, i used to live in the u. k. and i, i've seen the ones on display the other models, the ones on this, because i'm sure many more in the both of those on this day i've seen quite a few people on previous visit to the british museum. and the time when to have to even imagine having this conversation. now, at that time it was on, on, on think it was only my going to go because there was no conversation. now we have the conversations and, and when you think about the facts like the elgin marbles, it really shows you what african countries have to have to really do to the ground in this matter. because the condescension even with which it's just like the british museum would talk to the places where i mean that's, that's european after class. how much more african advice from a,

what is it, what is it that countries need to do? i mean, when a country, once it's looted artifacts and it's heritage back, what is the best way for them to do so or what sort of avenues are available for them to be returned? for instance, we wait. i think it's important to privilege the voices from the call us when the funds have been taken out in full registration is not the top down . 2 people speaking in the sculptures, but which is british is just not to say that 0. we are. we're keeping the ball people out of the world to see well, the best place for the police after this all the places where they have been taken . and i also want to say that how many africans, for instance, can see the been in bronze, is that the british museum,

how many africans can get these to get these up for the average to get that to, to the u. k. all to europe, to europe, right. is that all hell? so what needs to be done is what these conversations to take place and to listen to the society, the representative voice. this is where the can from and there is no going back in . i do have, for instance, we have the do museum of west africa, which is being built post lead to house. been in that i returned ok number of institutions, a k b a r t in the u. s. i thank you so much. i have kelly. thank you so much, we'll have to leave it there. great to talk to miller. what? thanks for joining us. thank you. let's now bring in jama for an update on it, and all the sports inside jama, thanks during it was the winning stopped for killing him back a and his 1st match is france captain, as they thrashed the netherlands for now in
