also clashes around an airport in the city of morrow, away. and southern dar for the sudanese army still controls the airport and the town of nila, but violence has been reported there as well. how corresponded him, morgan reports now from call to it doesn't look like the situation is the escalating. in fact, the army put out a statement saying that it will not negotiate with the rapid support force of until those forces are dissolved and the rebel a troops are dealt with. so it looks like if, despite the fact that people have been calling for a de escalation of the situation here in the capital and across the country, the armed forces look like they're going ahead. with developing the rapid support forces and continued to attack, they've already enabled the group as a rebel for us. and we were seeing a continuing of fighting here in the, in the area of her to me near the vicinity of the presidential palace. we can still hear shots being fired. we can hear heavy artillery being fired. it's not clear yet
3:04 am
who is in control of the presidential palace, but the army says it is in control of the headquarters. the state television is being battled over. both sides wanting to gain control and cartoon international airport at the moment looks to be under the control of the armed forces. so the escalation continues and lots of tension here. and the capital of fighting continues between both sides with civilians. caught in the middle of the heavy fighting spreads, through whom extension between the foot nice army and powerful paramilitary force spill over into the streets. the army says its defending itself and attacked by the rapid support for across the capitol. it's now does it anything before us as a rebel groups now, we the army did not initiate any flight. we were present in our command and we were surprised with the attack at about 910 this morning. coupled with an assault on my
3:05 am
residence, the army did not deploy or make any movement. the army headquarters and presidential palace are under the control of the general command. we do not wish to see this country slipping into war. however, we must teach a lesson to any non regular militia, but the rapid support forced to see their bases were attacked by the army. i vis basil will pave the way to a peaceful solution. all those criminals will stand trials. i cannot give a time limit to the fighting, however, we are adamant to end with the least of losses. ah, all flights have been cancelled as how to international airport where armed men are on the tarmac and rapid support forces entered state television services for dan tv, about by the had to san were minus them. no. this was the moment the stations broadcast was cut. the fighting hasn't just been confined to the capital. there's
3:06 am
been violence in north and south dar for west and north cord to find states as well as murder. we in northern sudan, both sides claim control of major facilities there and in other areas. but so far, it's been hard to confirm who has the upper hand tensions between the army and the rocket support forces emerged months after a military takeover in 2021 and be heightened when talks to integrate the artist of into the army stalled. ideally seen very hard and very angry, actually i'm in rich and i see i see a 2 bed most of them share when you both of you, you have been in cost it all this great devolution. and are you already committed an uncertainty, conclude? speaking in vietnam, u. s. secretary of state anthony blinking said washington would continue to support to dance transition to a civilian lead government. it's a fragile situation. there are other actors that may be pushing against
3:07 am
that, that progress. but this is a real opportunity to finally carry for the civilian la transition. and one that we and, and other countries are trying to are to bolster people across to dan are bracing themselves for more fighting and new crisis and an uncertain future. he been morgan, alta 0 horton on sudanese army as well as per democracy groups have long demanded the rapid support forces integrate into the regular armed forces. it's estimated that the par, military force consists of about a $100000.00 fighters, mom and bell reports now. and how the scrape came to be that up it's support forces are put on military fight, as mainly from dot for the. our staff was created by former president omar bashir in 2013, to stabilize the war torn region in western sudan. and more broadly to consolidate
3:08 am
his personal grip on power. he was concerned about any security institution being strong enough to overthrow and challenge him. so he allowed, you know, he allowed basically a proliferation of different armed groups and centers of power within the country hudson. but the origin of the force goes back to 2003. that's when president till the she had created an arm and a tribal militia to crush a local rebellion in the west. a force became known as the hunter. we tend to dance come trula general of the photographer han was instrumental in creating and training both a gentle wheat and later the our self. he worked in the field for years with his now deadra. i from lambert hampton douglas known as hammer t. the commander of the artist, f. e. 2019 the 2 men joined forces to overthrow a model. the shoot behind headed the transitional military council and had done douglas served as his deputy by continues to grow in both sites and we buy some
3:09 am
estimates. it now both $100000.00 tests on it. it took on several roles including border security and maintaining law and order cross activists accused out of 5th of participating in the killing of $120.00 for the pro democracy professors in june 2019. but it's how much is aspirations for a rival, political leadership in cartoon that led to discord with his ally, elbow han, and paved the way for the current situation. difference over the terms of integration of the reception to the army intensified after the signing of a framework agreement that lay the foundations for the transitional period in december, 2020 to the failure of talks on this. and other issues. finally, led to what the observers have been warning about and all our military confrontation practice group was warning just 10 years ago. you know,
3:10 am
while by here was still in power that if you ever left power, one of the big concerns would be that he left behind such a mess in terms of the military insecurity that a huge risk was that these parties would themselves turn on each other as ever, explicitly in population, but the price, palpable fear of the current conflict may prove more deadly and more destructive than any so that has witnessed in the past 100 fine. just let's take a closer look at just how we got here. the most recent bout of instability ensued on began in 2019. that's when the military asked a long time need and the share after months of math protests, then they moved against the protestors. but under instructional pressure, it was forced to assign a power sharing agreement with civilian groups. elections. with that for 2023. then in october 2021. yet another military takeover unseated prime minister humbug was seen as the face of the transition to democracy. on december 5th last year. well it
3:11 am
really designed another. busy deal with political groups, promising to pave the way for fair elections and returned to civilian rule. and then 2 weeks ago, sit on was set to take the next step, but disputes about how to integrate the rapid support forces into the army got on the way. while edward thomas used to work in sudan as a researcher and human rights activist, he explains what's behind this current power struggle. over the past 4 months, they've been trying to negotiate, trying to clued other political forces and they seem to have reached an impasse earlier this month. and it seemed like there's so many impasses in sydney's politics, but it seems to be one that has led to very, very dramatic turn of events. and i guess, i don't know which one actually started it. i was very surprised to hear that the r s f, a deployed in medway, in northern sudan, which was an area where it didn't have so much of
3:12 am
a presence previously the leader of the artist that may fear his exclusion from that his process. or he may, may believe that he can win a quick victory. this really is unprecedented. previous crews have happened fairly blood leslie and quickly. and victory has either been assured or the crew has been put down very quickly. but we're in a situation where the 2 sides are facing off in the capital city. and a big issue for them is air power. who can control the air because the recess traditionally hasn't had an air force. to other news now, and humans, warring sides, have released more detainee on the 2nd day of a major prisoner exchange. this was the latest group of 3 prisoners to arrive in the rebel controlled capital fella. dozens of troops from the saudi led coalition were also released on saturday. the red cross says more than 800 prisoners from both sides are due to be freed in the 3 day operation. the exchange as part of
3:13 am
a broader diplomatic effort and the long conflict. it's a special moment, and i think that to have all actors willing to have these really, during ramadan, having, you know, the detainees who have been separated from the, have any for us to, to join again. it's more than just a release. it's a release during ramadan and with it inside. so it's it's a powerful side. it's a very powerful try a lot. have the last or the i me thank god, what i'm feeling is indescribable. i've never felt like this in my life. it's like i was reborn, like i know what i'm asking. how much? my name is ahmed mohammed ali ali from re my governor it. i was held at alpha ria, the 4 years we've been badly treated. now thousands of protesters returned to the streets of israel for a 15th straight week to oppose the government plan to overhaul the of the judiciary
3:14 am
. prime minister, benjamin netanyahu put the changes on hold back in march, in response to these demonstrations. but the bill comes before parliament again later this month. and proposals include giving politicians more say in choosing judges and limiting the power of the supreme court. how correspond, wrestle said it was at those protests and television. even tens of thousands of israelis are taking the skis to protest against the government's plans to overhaul the additional system. so this is randy. government says that the supreme court in the country is becoming too much powerfully. and that's why they're coming with some suggested changes. so simply, the government wants to add that wants to simple majority of the parliament to override all the decisions made by the supreme court. and also the government wants to be able to appoint the maternity of the judges in the supreme court of the critics. the protest is here or seen that if the person is adopted, it's going to destroy the check and checks and balances and also the separation off
3:15 am
the poverty. so and also they say that that, but they did that they have government is turning the company into a dictatorship. so there wasn't any mistake with control from the judge wilson. and we don't want to let this is very dangerous because he's the hesitant going to control everything with mean it's not them from the end. the war need speak to on. we all frayed and we'd all agree and we are going to fight from the new school task or taking place under the shadow of the recent pension and the ongoing crisis in the country. however, many of the protesters here are saying that the ongoing crisis has purposefully been 3 guard by the government. and they said that the security doesn't come without the malta this wide. oh,
3:16 am
also the one that, i mean, i'll still ahead here on out, is there a controversial pension reforms assigned into law and france, but union se protests? well continued class. wow. i activists celebrate the shutdown of germany's last remaining nuclear power plants. ah frank assessments, justice means to give them the basic human rights, not only in the camp, but also inside the me and my informed opinions. 5 administration are very concerned about this development, especially for what it means for china's power on the world stage. critical debate, a in depth analysis of the days headlines inside story on al jazeera.
3:18 am
ah, welcome back. you're watching out as era. i'm the styles you take here and our ha as remind you of our top stories. so don's doctors union says at least $27.00 civilians have been killed during fierce fighting between the army and the countries largest power military group. the rapids support forces. much of the violence has been concentrated in the capital cartoon in lawsuit on army has ruled out negotiations with rapids aboard forces, which it is now designated as a rebel group. the surgeon fighting is the latest blow to sedans, hopes for a transition to democracy, or they have been cause for restraint from the international community, the united nations secretary general, antonio gutierrez and his special invoice is due. dawn have condemned the violence and court for an immediate end to the fighting. the arab league is urging all sides to protect civilians and prevent any further escalation. and the african union is
3:19 am
pushing for an end to the fighting and to return to the negotiating table. earlier i speak to david shin, he was the deputy head of mission at the u. s. embassy in sudan. he says the international community failed to re the early warning signs of potential conflict . the outbreak of fighting or did catch the international community by surprise. the fact that the framework agreement was not being implemented on schedule was certainly an indicator that things were not going well. and that there could be difficulties. but they have this, this kind of significant fighting and various parts of sudan all at the same time. i think it's clearly surprise you. the idea will be to go back to the framework agreement with whatever pressure they can on all parties to return to the framework agreement. and ideally to implement it to the point hard, eventually results in a, in a civilian government and the country that concept has been pretty much over the short
3:20 am
term been destroyed. i don't, i don't see that happening anytime real soon. when you know where the rapid support forces, i guess most of it support from witches is western song all western sudan. in addition, they apparently have a significant military presence at meryl way, near the injection border. that could pose horrific problems even if the situation could be resolved in and around cartoon or along the nile. moving on and unions and france has accused president emanuel back on of showing contempt for protesters after he signed unpopular pension reforms into law, calling for demonstrations to continue against the measures which faced the retirement age. by 2 years, 64, the changes became known after being improved by fonts as highest constitutional authority. no losses self. lucas in the end, it is the democratic course that we've been promised for a few days,
3:21 am
saying that it is inevitable. and i think that this reform, whether it is good or not, should have been postponed because the consequences will be terrible from a political point of view. the news will say closer to the left is war cover. the constitutional council has done a job. finally to law is perhaps a bit quick, especially given the social movements it should be postponed or cecile, lazarus, u haul, says i'm friends, but of i've were an origin. so i'm going back to my country at some point, but even if i don't go back if my children were born here, so i wouldn't want my children to work until they're 64. that's too much. when are you going to enjoy your retirement? you're not going to work all your life. by the time you enjoy your retirement, your dead bolduc. now the number of people killed and russian missile strikes on a city and east in ukraine has risen to at least 11 rescue teams have tried to reach people trapped on the rubble of an apartment building and saw the answer. the local governor says that 7 missiles were fired at the city on friday. in while poland has suspended food imports from ukraine until the end of june to protect its
