9:09 pm
which is which is respective never to do take the security council seriously as he says, reason to do so. and the member states and security council, many of them do have good direct relationship, either to the one or to the other side and some actually 2 sites. i expect that that member states, particular member states and security council, as well as some obscene obsolete your neighbors were used to leverage one or both of the theaters to to, to press them into agreeing to stop fighting. thank you. last question to amena from sky news. i mean i mean well, you hear me. yeah. go ahead. thank you for the when the members stay the all the
9:10 pm
security council have relations with one or another of the signs in the conflict. and i expect them to use their influence and leverage the woods there of the united nations secretary general, special representative on sudan who is speaking, giving a briefing on economies. giving a briefing right now to reporters and journalist after briefing, a close session of the un security council on the situation and sit down without fighting that has claimed more than a 100 life me. he said he wishes the security council remains united in supporting the sudanese people now with a fighting in its 3rd day and at least a 180 dead must cut the latest with this report from rowena mohamad. plumes of smoke rise along the tarmac at cartoon at port on a 3rd day of fighting between sedans, army, and the biggest and most powerful paramilitary force explosions as strikes and
9:11 pm
gunshots. a hurt across the capital has both sides claimed there making advances in strategic areas. but details on the ground are unclear. footage released by the sudanese military shows, a number of rapid support forces, troops surrendering their weapons and equipment in khartoum. the army says it's resumed control of state tv, and we'll use it to update the public. it also says it's re taken morrow. we airport in the north, but that conflicts with claims by the r s f, which says it's meant still control the facility. what is out of me with this message is for all those who are saying that middle, the airport is still under the control of the sort of means army. right now, we are inside matter. we are put, as you can see, there is a plane behind us, and we are stationed here until the victory. the iris f also says an army lead battalion handed over its vehicles in the eastern. now, part of cartoon, state sudan has been brought to a standstill after attempt to open
9:12 pm
a humanitarian corridor or failed fighting, destroyed cartoons, main water station, raising fears of widespread food and water shortages. only one still of water water left. this is a more manly one. and that everything is, am, do you know, the water bottle structure looked, saw him, the whole, the auto, whole milk. everything is empty here on the refrigerator. see everything is carlos. nothing left foot. so given or variable and hospitals have become targets. shelling on a lab in this clinic left several people injured and forced many to evacuate. doctor say they're running out of medical supplies, or a power struggle between army, chief of delphi, to alper han and his deputy mohammed. hum, don douglas, commander of the r s. f triggered the outbreak of fighting on saturday with neither side, willing to back down. while air strikes continue,
9:13 pm
and the warring side show no desire for talks. it's the people off sit on that are paying the heaviest price for healing mohammed al jazeera was go live now to have a morgan in call to him. so however, after 3 days of fighting, is it clear where this conflict is going on? the side getting an upper hand on the other 11 thing we do know for sure is that neither side seems to be willing to give up. at the moment. we know that the r f is right now, continuing with anti aircraft missiles against 5 digits that continue to fly over the skies of her 250. now fighting is still ongoing in the northern parts of the capitol that's across the river nile. and in the city of under man, it looks like if i suggest that belongs to the foot in these army, is targeting locations where the recess are known to be, especially their basis. but there are civilians. we're also caught up in the middle . and it's not clear who has the upper hand. we know that the sudanese army was
9:14 pm
able to regain control of the state television. and that they were in control of the airports and the general command of the army. but then they're also claims by the arthur. but they claim that they control of a facilities as well. and when you look at the state of play in other areas, places like dar for places like the east, while one side such as the army controls the parts of the east. they're also parts in the west and are for that the rest of control. so right now it's very hard to tell who has the upper hand over the other and have a wall of that's all going on. we're hearing stories, video being circulated on social media, showing people trapped in homes in university libraries. how dire is the situation becoming for people while this is the 3rd day of fighting and we started on saturday, people were not expecting it to happen. so they just went on with their daily lives
9:15 pm
. those who were at home did not take precautions. they did not stir extra food or water. and those who went to school or universities or hospitals that they would be able to go back home once they were done with their day. but that was not the case . so there's several universities students who are trapped within the vicinity of the presidential palace and be a general commander of the army. and they are patients who are trapped in hospitals and food strapped in schools, all of them and able to get out because of the fighting on the streets. and that's when you look at the people who are trapped in areas around the fighting zones. been that the issue of fighting on the street and the insecurity. many people say that they have injuries and they have their relatives who are in need of medical attention. but because of the continuous fighting because of the heavy artillery that they continue to hear because of the flying of the 5 digits overhead, they can't access hospitals. and the very few who can get to the hospital say that there's a shortage of medical staff in the hospitals that are all that are open. others are
9:16 pm
not open. and the biggest shortage of medicine. so very dire situation for the civil into we're not expecting this, but now for the 3rd day in a row, have to live through it. all right, we'll leave it there. thanks so much. have a morgan look her asthma. the bass sham is the vice president of the sudan doctors union. he says the situation cartoon is dia during the last couple of base . the hospital, you have to be in boxes. they have been dealing with them each week said that there are people anymore. besides the remaining government functioning because the power might have been visually the medical
9:17 pm
institution in functioning of the money. because the doctor, the other medical questionnaire would not reach the hospital because the major on the my estimate. so i don't pretty primitive or some of them die earlier we were hearing from the united nations special representative for the secretary general in sudan volker pet has, who was addressing media from inside sedan. he's supposed to lead us on both sides of the fighting, but he's not exactly helped the mystic about mediation efforts. as the 2 sites who are fighting are not giving his impression that they want mediation for peace
9:18 pm
between them right away. they are according to 2 and decide to keep to surrender, to spend as spring in our diplomatic editor james bay's, who's at the united nations headquarters. and james, you and i were talking couple of hours ago about the potential influence that those international backers of the 2 sides could have on the parties to the conflict. exactly the message which we heard from the un special representative of sudan. yes sammy, that's a you and special representative. you just had a clip of their bulk of perth as he's just finished briefing reporters after previously briefing at the un security council and you heard from that clip? it's not particularly good news. he doesn't see either side at this stage,
9:19 pm
wanting to back down or what he has been doing is trying to arrange a humanitarian pause. e had an humanitarian pause on saturday and one onst on, on a to day monday that has just ended. and he said those weren't fully respected, but it's better than not having a pause because it allows people potentially to go and get food, get supplies. he's hoping to have more humanitarian poor pauses, and perhaps longer pauses, hoping that from that he can build on the idea of a cease fire. a. but he's relying, i think, on other international players as well as him. and he, he does say he's speaking to both generals, he says is in contact with them very regularly. and he believes that both are currently still in khartoum. but he, what he believes pressure from others is important. the un security councils issued a statement, you and security counsels had a meeting. we've had got the african union, we've got the regional grouping. r e got, we've also got a,
9:20 pm
the league of arab states, the arab league as well. all of these bodies are talking out with various players, and particularly with the 2 generals trying to get a cease far in place. that talk of mediation missions, there's talk of the peace and security council of the african union. there's talk of eguard, there's talk of the, even of the chairperson in office of the african union in miss of hockey, who comes from a neighboring country, chad making their way as delegations to try and speak to the generals to try and get that sees for the problem with that is air space is closed, borders are closed and it's simply too dangerous and to travel at this stage. so diplomatic efforts are ongoing, i'm afraid to say though, not a very much fruit of this time. and clearly that's deeply concerning for the people of sudan, and particularly those in di humanitarian need. because the situation in the country was already grim. and now, according to that un secretary general, it's horrific. all right,
9:21 pm
thanks so much. james bayes. there plenty of all still had on the news hour, including french call to quit sab asana france for a 2009 plane crash. the kill 228 people. emotional reunions and hopes for a lasting pace. hundreds of prisoners return home optimistic with an end to the war, and yemen is inside floss a young quarterback making history in the nfl with a record breaking contract. and that more with kiefer in school ah, now a 104 detainees have been transferred from saudi arabia to yemen on monday. in addition to a 3 day long prisoner exchange between host the rebels and government forces, the release so far of nearly a 1000 detainees is raising hopes of an end t emmons, long running conflict in ron con reports ah,
9:22 pm
it's all hugs in relief at santa airport. as a prisoner exchange comes to completion after 3 days, but it's taken months of negotiation gel and val i miss my mom and dad, my kids and my entire family. this what was broken by the un involved the release of over 700 detained hu fees, and more than a 180 other prisoners, including saudi soldiers and suit me. troops fighting with the saudi that coalition . the iranian back tooth east took snow in 2014 st. paul king, a war and the involvement of saudi arabia and allies, such as the u. e, trying to restore the internationally recognized government a deadlock and fighting lead to what's been described as the world's worst humanitarian disaster. with a 150000 people did. the prisoner exchange is a vital pass with deal to revive expired ceasefire and embark on talks to settle a conflict. but with allegations of miss treatment and torture on both sides.
9:23 pm
they're still a long way to go before peace can come. the suck men alone. today we are receiving a new batch of our heroes, our prisoners who are coming from our province. we have received the 1st batch and we are waiting for the 2nd matter more than a 100 prisoners. there may be a 108 of our heroes who have endured in the field and in captivity, despite the torture that they were subjected to. as we were told for manya, the deal include high profile prisoners on both sides, a sign of how seriously each side is taking the move toward piece. this is the largest prisoner exchange since october 2020, and boats. i say they will continue talking after the upcoming holiday m. ron con houser, somali, his army is making significant gains in it's offensive against the chabad. the military says it's pushed fighters out of large areas in the center of the country and is now moving into the arm groups, southern strong holes al jazeera, as catherine sawyer, reports from margaret issue. ah,
9:24 pm
to molly forces may be on the offensive against peices of archibald in the capital, nobody issue. they are increasing their defensive positions. with checkpoints on the cities out, scott's the on his new operation against osha, bob started in august, security forces say they have made significant gains when it comes about emotional security. all to put into forces different supposes are been designated to work for security, for goods, abrasions in mogadishu, all the country. so there is a joint operations or much all the brochure is concerned about. concerning about a military belize unit. i just walk in with the so my liberal is, was national intelligence as a credit officer. just walking with the bullies was, this is the mother of national interest. in mogadishu, the rebels have infiltrated neighborhoods and carried out a talks numerous times with devastating results is not surprising to see chap
9:25 pm
point like this one indifferent ha. of this secrecy security has been increased, especially now during the whole month of ramadan residency talk to bait has held deal a sense of safety. this pictures were filmed in october, in middle chevrolet to the north east of mogadishu. her powerful militia groups have joined soldiers on the front line, trying to drive our treble fighters as half civilians like hudson abdi, whose home town of galani was under archibald control for 15 years. mondanca i decided to take my gun to liberate myself for marsha. but many people in my community see that they are fed. the army has retake and large sweets of territory in central somalia. the troops are now heading south to another archer, bob strong holds. they are also getting help from countries like the u. s. tarkey
9:26 pm
and an african union horse called at miss. and if that combination that is different than other operations we've seen in the past. this is very much somali lead, and there is community engagement. ah, however, major challenges remain about this. the, the hard part in somalia has never been removing offshore. bob from territory. it's everything that comes after that. it's holding that territory. it's providing the services. and a lot of that still remains to be seen back in mogadishu. this cautious hope that after years of traumatic balance, the tide against archer bob could finally be tiny. catherine saw all g 0 margaret issue. now palestinian worshippers are marking one of her holiest days in the month of ramadan, known as the night of power or lay. little other worshippers are expected to gather the alarm for mos compound and occupy these jerusalem. the tensions have been high . the locks are this ramadan,
9:27 pm
israeli forces have conducted violent raids on people gathering their sol solved are, joins us now from the mount of olives in occupy the east jerusalem. so as i said, ross are very special night how recent tensions impacting lay that'll cover their well indeed i, sam, it's quite a special, significant night for a muslims here, but particularly in jerusalem as over a week ago, there has been the israel occupation force a storm alex a mosque and they are imposed violence on palestine and worshippers. so today we have seen that rates are starting from afternoon on a palestinians. tens of thousands of palestinians has started to have started to arrive. alexa moss compliant compound rights were over there. and now that the prayer is on the way that our towns of thousands of the palestine is worth practice in their fate. during rama then at the usual night. and there are roughly around
9:28 pm
$200000.00 palestinians, but in over there, but to night is expected to be much more. of course, up to day, it hasn't been that easy for the town, tens of thousands of palestinians to have access to alexa compound because there are extreme measures here we have seen that israeli, our forces are as setting up the checkpoints, 10 tens of checkpoints across the city, they're imposing barriers. people are under a constant civilians. they are been checked and so on. and on top of dad, there are also hundreds of palestinians that have a bed. the dead that are dead are banned to. anton alex, a mosque. these been orders are issued by israeli occupation forces and they do not have any court the decision based on that. but the relo completion forces are seeing that that bands are been paused to the palestinians who are protest in
9:29 pm
the cushion off off the will the nationalists israelis into alex, i'm or so it's been use as a tool of deterrence. so the human rights groups here are seen that all of these measures been orders are actually being used as a tool by the israeli occupation forces as a part off on going a collective punishment against the palestinians and the palestinians that they have talked to to day they were saying that all these extreme measures tight security measures the restrictions, limitations, are not only to limit to restrict access to alexa compounds, but also they said, that is, rand occupation forces are deliberately doing so to destroy the sense of normalcy among the palestinians in jerusalem. all right, thank you so much for. so our human rights organizations say the number of palestinians held in israeli prisons without charge is at a 20 year high. it's an issue given special prominence every april,
9:30 pm
the 17th which is pass indian prisoners day. neither abraham reports lately say is either home for some palestinian families. radio is the only way they can connect to their loved ones. in israel, christians palestinian prisoners tuning and listened to their families, cheering news, and updates of shows like this one on the voice of palestine, radio or even more important for prisoners whose families are not allowed to visit w corolla. sandra. yes, at ham. it speaks on the radio, she tells her 2 sons. she is doing well and can't wait to see them. for years, these really authorities haven't allowed me are set to visit her children fighting grounds of security is well controlled. who gets to visit palestinian families need permits to cross into israel? we're almost all the jails are yes, that lives alone. now. she says holiday periods are the hardest time of the year,
9:31 pm
but that will upset. i worry about them. do they eat well? do they get enough food? do they like it? is it too cold in jail? when his son is accused of shooting and killing in his really subtler in 2015 his yet to be sentenced. her youngest, no man has been held for more than a year in what's called administrative detention imprisonment without charges. both more i have and men have been jailed before. in the last of they keep saying they have a secret file. why don't they tell us what he's being held for? it's because they have nothing on him, but it's just used to keep him in jail. we also says it's almost impossible for prisoners with administrative detention to plan their live cuts and then no man spends more than 2 years in administrative detention before. and after his release, he decided to get engaged and start the family. he was arrested shortly after and held them their administrative detention again. he's still in jail for over a year now. currently there are 4800 prisoners in israeli jails. nearly 1000
9:32 pm
are administer to detention human rights group, say this is the highest number of administrative detainees into decades. this protest takes place every week to demand the release of prisoners. over the years, the numbers of those taking part has been declining. as i can ask one day, if there is an imminent danger facing prisoners, the people will take to the streets. just recently, prisoners were to start the hunger strike, people ready for a confrontation. this is why israel came into the demands of prisoners on it knows that the tensions would have escalated on the streets. so they backtracked prisoners to know that they won't be reduced in any deal soon. but last live in hope that's one day they'll be reunited with their families that have alger zita, the occupied westbank now french president emanuel micron has addressed the nation in his 1st speech since his government's controversial pension changes became law.
9:33 pm
he said he understands the anger of a population, and he says he'll hammer out an action plan to get france back on its feet. in the next 100 days, my crown signed the legislation on saturday, officially raising the retirement age from 62 to 64. such a saw metallic, have these reforms been accepted evidently no event again, despite months of dialogue, a consensus was never reached. and i regret it. she's in order that we must all learn lessons from this is on tuesday. i natasha battle joins us now from paris. so 1st of all, what is this action plan that mac crohn referred to? did he give details? no prison, my county gave me more details, but this is a theme all about michael, trying to turn a paid tick. wow, i can put an end to the to faithful cine learning center,
9:34 pm
reforming fraud for many months, many years now. person my phone used to speak to sign justify why he decided to push through this and form. he said look, people are living longer. that's why he asked for school, where people have to vote for an extra 2 years. retiring at 6452. he said it from 5 more to line with europe and jim, so going to make the pension to confirm and stronger for future generations. moving to speak to talk about some of the other things id like to do that is next 4 years of his patients including things like adjusting issues in the hospital education and the workforce. this is very much a speech without any pick announcements without any good surprises. but michael, really asking for people to move on and i can looking at the live pictures looks like this, some reaction walks the response been to his speech,
9:35 pm
whether or not to purchase the other behind. you can probably see them. i mean, they're not reacting to speech, none of them are to listen to what they've been here for a while now. there was a pool for people to come out to proceed to paris and bank pots and pans and photos during my all my house feet. well, if you try to drown out of the world to depress look what michael said, this evening, good supplies, anyone. and he said nobody to change anyone's mind if they are opposed to the pension reform beeping protesting for 3 months for trade unions that they want to continue to do. so they're ready for full amount. so i can probably just stay on the main to 1st people here say that base pension reform is i'm just there. i'm happy about the way it was 44 elements and they say look, if they continue to probably just hop so beautiful. not quite sure. on the posting to scrapping that seems unlikely, but for now,
