alec baldwin for the fatal shooting of cinematographer helene hutchins on a film set. and on peter simmons in dough with wood, useful to use your grooms at 715 point city, all penalty suspended. and also through the road for the semi finals, they'll be joined by severe seals than just the you much ah . how large parts of the muslim world, a mocking the end of the holy month of ramadan. but the start of the holiday of either fitter is marked by battles around to don. and the tragic stampede in yemen . in suit on you and is appealing for a 3 day cease fire over the eat holiday. so that trap residents can flee the fighting. that's been raging across the capital for 6 days. at least 330 people have now been killed. thousands more injured for cease fires of fail to stop. the

violence between 2 dawns army and powerful power military group. the rapid support forces who were battling for control of the country. thousands of trying to flee hard to the contractor was also forced as 20000 people from the data for region to seek refuge in chad. this is in the past few days. the fighting must stopped immediately. i am deeply concerned about the terrible tall on civilians, the appalling humanitarian situation, and the audi fighting prospects of further escalation. hundreds of people have been killed and injured. fighting in urban areas is particularly dangerous for civilians including children who have repeatedly been forced to shelter in schools and evacuated from hospitals and the fire. these is completely outrageous. you meditated operations out virtually impossible, warehouses, vehicles, and that you meditate in assets and be detect looted and sees. will the sydney's

alman chief abdul fatah bohannon as it ruled out any negotiations with his rival? entailed out his era, he would only accept surrender. and the country doesn't need outside interference. no, so i know you know, that doesn't look good. maybe we need to decrease the dilemma violence, or we need to make sure fighting doesn't occur in residential areas to avoid civilian casualties. gamma we need the leaders of the rapid support forces to understand their position, to stay outside the cities and residential areas. i don't believe we do not need any international or regional interference because we, a sudanese people will reach a point that satisfies us. you know that the rapid support full says general mohammed ham dan douglas also spoke vouchers. era let you know i cannot tell you this site will end overnight. however, we hope and assure the sudanese people with that we will end the special with the least amount of damage. ready we will not lay down arms until we take over all the

armed forces positions and headquarters, and then we will listen to the will of the sudanese people. and of course, across the capital. many people fair that is could be the beginning of a wide conflict. catcher has had a, an has won that now. the threat of violence is now too close to home. days of fighting have left many, sudanese, desperate, and afraid. thousands of people are leaving cartoon. i don't, i think i'll be here. we will tell to get out any one who is able to leave, but we can't just sit around. we need to make a living. the army and paramilitary rapid support forces blame one. another for breaking several sees fires in recent days. the streets of the capital are once again seeing the effects of conflict. a lot of reporting and pictures from people who also need a lot of bit read them that are really to be as some of them are the media. some of

them godric wise by the people so are there were from the neighborhood, but some of them are not during the low in gunfire, some people venture out to sunk off on food and water. what supplies or limit at the united nations warns the humanitarian catastrophe. is looming, many of the country's best hospitals are in cartoon, were the most intensive battles are taking place. there are few hospitals treating the injured and the number of doctors is limited. there's a lot of over crowding. that's even though a lot of wounded can't make it to the hospitals because of the fighting. but for some a leaving isn't an option. at least not yet. oh, the should city indicate that it looks like it's also real. you see children watching cartoons at home against a backdrop of air strikes. i was walking outside with a friend who's hosting me and we heard the sound of an attack. i asked her if indeed it was an air strike. and she said calmly, yes,

it feels strange that people are growing used to this type of situation. after here is of political instability, cruise and fighting sudan was on the verge of transitioning to a civilian lead government. those plans are now on hold again. as thousands of people leave their homes in search for safety, there are fears of violence could spread beyond su, dance, borders, cartier, low missile, the young al jazeera while dearest to her on the idea as more on the exodus of people from the sydney's capital. had you not all but the thing you, lauren, this is the largest assembly point for people traveling by road. the capital's main car and bus terminal. this place is crowded with people fleeing what they say feels like an all out war and the sounds of bullets and canons. each of them has a story about living. amid the fighting between the sudanese army and the rapid support forces. the conflict is terrifying for adults and children alike. a strong

resentment is clear here among those seeking to leave the capital, there is no. they're trying to take advantage of the announcement of a truce to leave the battlefield and confrontations and had for their relatives and loved ones. because bridges had been closed. escaping the capital can only be done from here for those who want to go to central cigar in the south. they say any safe place is better to protect them from the evil of the fighting. every one i spoke to here appealed to both sides to stop this war for the sake of sudan. they wished for this announced truce. there either truce to be prelude to an end of the war and hope it will lead to dialogue on how to deal with this crisis. this is the expressed wish of many of those who want to leave the capital hot dorm through this vehicle terminal. over the past 6 days out, there has been speaking to several residents about what is happening and see don here some of their stories. ah,

i personally prefer that we play from hunger and i pump with a lot of people don't understand that there's no future by both groups that are fighting. come out that are 5 percent future. ah, my mom passed away on the 15th of april the morning or sunday at about 7 36 in the morning. and she was actually, i had a house in the living room. friday shelter over there. ah, yardly, we gave them out more than 4 with we found in the laurel people who are injured as a lot of people, medical support, but have any and no one with my merch people

aren't here. it's always a plus is why not to leave, because you can never know when history will it with us state department. meanwhile, as when speaking about the situation in sudan algae, there is rosalind jordan asked as spokesman about the american response. if they don't stop fighting, what is the us prepared to do in order to get to a cease fire? his main point to both of these generals continues to be urging to extend the currencies fire through april 23rd. that is what he has consistently raised with these 2 generals. specifically, i'm not going to get ahead of any actions that the u. s. may or may not take. we're looking at a full range of options available and we are working with our partners to ensure the response is coordinated,

inconsistent whenever possible. but our viewpoint is that the most important thing to happen right now is for the cease fire that was announced on april 19th to be extended. how long are the u. s. s. allies willing to watch the situation deteriorate across cartoon, and north of the country. mean it's basically all out war. now, i don't think we're watching and standing by. we are engaging on this. we're engaging on this, as i said, on multiple front, one of them being of course, the safety and security of american citizens and our personnel. but of course, the other front being the calling for a cessation of violence with a clear understanding and evocation of the fact that there is not a military solution to this crisis. 2 people have been arrested over a stam paid in yemen capital left at least 78 people. dead businessmen organize event in san however, crush happened on reserve people who gathered to receive cash handouts and food to

mark the final days of ramadan. but who sees who controls allison's 2014 se they will compensate the affective families? nominal a town bring this morning, this now from sun r. this incidence has caused nationwide. and also of course, nationwide sadness among gemini, especially in the last 10 days of the whole month on the ministry of been terrier has called for deep investigation into the causes behind this as time paid. this incident has taken place because the people were in the, in the, especially people oh, were in the between these 2 cases of the, of the place of the distribution of the financial assistance. there were around 500 people who were time period by other people who, around 4000 people were there to receive financial assistance by

this big management of the so this incident has also made many people to call for, to cheer choosing another. another alternative for sending money to people in order to help them for the, for the financial needs for the especially for the we are in the advent of both, many people need for to, to per chaise for the close of their farm. and also many of those people host. busy stay there for around the, for around 20 hours, they're waiting for the final justice to be distributed among them. so they haven't even broken their fast, se, so really it's which was a catastrophe for your money that this, this day would be remembered for the time to come. what a manger belfy is regional spokesperson for the near and middle east at the

international committee of the red cross. she says this time pete is a symptom of yeah, many people suffering. the unfortunate event that happened in son are, is a harsh reminder that yemen remains as one of the wars wars humanitarian crisis. it also reflects how acute and desperate the situation of the population is. we are talking about a country where 2 thirds of the population are relying on humanitarian assistance in order to be able to sustain their day. the basic needs, including food, including access to all basic services and needs. just to give you an idea of how acute the and desperate population is. this is on the reminder that there is a need to scale up the capacity of 8 actors in order to sustain a more, in order to provide more in order to cover the needs of the population. in the news,

our lie from london still ahead for you on the program became a fast i was military that brings and compulsory military service for all young men aged 18 and above. ah space axes giant, you starship rocket bloss all from its 1st test flight. but explodes minutes later and we'll have all the action from the barcelona open, including a comfortable win for the 2nd seat. ah, now the nato secretary general against oldenburg, has made his 1st visit to keith. since the russian invasion, he told present lensky that he sees ukraine's rightful place. as inside the military alliance the crime and responded saying, preventing, acquainting membership of nato was one of the main aims of its attack. charles stratford reports now from keith, with a handshake that will infuriate russia he president vladimir zalinski,

hosted the leader of major james stalkin book from reaching and keith. and after more than the gear of war, storekeeper carried a message to the crane can eventually find a place in the western military alliance. let me be clear, ukraine's rightful place is in the europe plan. think family ukraine's rightful place is in natal. and over time, our support will help you make this possible. is not the 1st time storm berg has said, this kind of thing, but the symbolism of him saying it in keith is powerful. the kremlin was quick to respond, saying that ukraine shift towards nato was one of the reasons why russia began what it calls its special operation in the 1st place. but for president zalinski, it's a moment of hope to his banner, and we interpret this visit of the secretary general. the 1st of the full scale war

is a sign that the nato alliance is ready to start a new chapter in relations with ukraine. a chapter of ambitious decisions for de la fay, i urged the sexy general to help overcome the restraint of our partners in supplying some weapons, including long range weapons, modern aviation artillery and armour. delaying decisions is time that is lost her pace, and this by the lives of our one is what zelinski will immediately get is more of this russian design mixed 20000000 pointed. you still need to point to maybe later they may be old stock, which slide from use my slovak year last year, but ukrainian pilots are familiar with them. and then go straight into services. ukraine prepares for its imminent spring offensive. more immediate needs on defensive wash and air attacks by missiles and drones continued. 8 civilians were killed in this attack on the eastern city of sla vance last week. the crane and air force command now admits that it needs more ammunition for its air defenses. nato

members of other countries gather in ramstein and germany on friday and present. zelinski requests are very clear, more modern western kit and longer range weapons that so far ukraine's allies have been reluctant to supply, but time is tight for ukraine with the so called spring counter offensive expected in the coming weeks. john stratford al jazeera keith washers military has released a new recruitment video as it looks to increase the number of troops on the front lines in ukraine. the advert depicts civilians and military uniform asking themselves if they could do more with their lives, playing on all the right, the major russian social networks at the moment. calling to british intelligence and russia, media military is looking to recruit around $400000.00 more volunteer soldiers or

a harrowing image of the war. and ukraine is one of the world press photo of the year. ukrainian associated press photographer, jenny. my lord clicker captured this image in march last year. it shows emergency work is carrying a pregnant woman through the shattered grounds of a maternity hospital and the city of mary a pole. the 32 year old woman irina colleena died of her injuries just shortly after giving birth to the lifeless body of her baby. the picture real. we're always in austin. in our mind, you know that the shirt you want to erase. remember what you couldn't. and to will stop was of history as a war, crime against a crane use the criminal charges against hollywood and to alec baldwin over the death of cinematographer helene hutchins, answer be dropped. baldwin had faced 2 counts of involuntary manslaughter after the accidental shooting on the set of the movie rust. in october 2021. it pleaded not

guilty to both charges. announcement comes 2 weeks before preliminary hearing, which would have to decided if there was enough evidence to take it to trial. that's get more in this now from sharp return. see in washington, what's been the reaction to this sham while alec baldwin, lawyers have welcomed this development. it's like it's, it's there and elsewhere that what we're relying upon, we're expecting the paperwork there to be filed either thursday or friday. there is actually a status hearing that scheduled for 2030 g m t about where we are in the case. i guess we will get the official confirmation then of this, but he's off the hook alley golden is. the one that basically happened is the original special prosecutor around the district attorney rather mishandled the inquiry stored. and so they both stepped away from the case to new special prosecutors have been appointed and what they said they're going to do is reopen the investigation. find out exactly what did happen and october of 2021 on the set

of rust. what was the condition of the gun and, and so on, because baldwin has always maintained this and he said he didn't fire shot. the gun just went off. but anyway, it was basically a prop gone. why was there i mission anyway? baldwin's lawyer say look, i'm and he was relying with other professionals around them to handle and make sure that the gun was in the, in the proper condition. but the investigation now will start again basically. so these, these charges could be resurrected sometime in the future. interestingly though, as far as where, where the armor on the set, the person was actually in charge of the gun. she used to have that involuntary manslaughter in belgium. counsel to charge against her, and that we don't quite know yet whether her trial will go ahead and early may as, as was expected, given that there is a new investigation. so it's so it's not care whether the charges could be refiled or whether the charge is to be dropped against terrorist read. that's something we have to to see what, what is the conclusion with that?

but it still means she have that. we don't actually know what really happened if the f b, i say that the gun couldn't find without the trigger being pulled in, alec bullard and making the, the opposite arguments. right. but what the prosecutors will have to do is convince a jury if, if this child does is resurrected to get all i have to do was potentially convince a jury that it was alex baldwin who acted with criminal negligence on the sat and. and as we said, the boardman, as always, always denied that. interestingly, there has already been a civil supplement between baldwin, i'm the widower, off the cinema told her friend, widow says look as far as i can send, this is all a terrible, terrible mistake as part of that civil settlement. baldwin and the production company have agreed to make a documentary about the city talk for his career and also the widow is now an executive producer on ross the movie, which was expected to begin recompense production today thursday in the u. s. okay,

for people living here that already reviving some of its loss to beauty. madame de la al jazeera bow that how space access launched the biggest and most powerful rockets ever made in a landmark test. but it didn't go according to plan. ah, the 2 hobbs of the unmanned starship failed to separate as planned and exploded, fall minutes after blast off. crashing down into the gulf of mexico, thousands a gallon to watch the launch from solomon texas. space ex official still declared it a success. it was the 1st time starship had taken to the skies. well out there is a column. baker has more now on the test flight. first, the race to space was just about getting there. now it's about getting

a lot of people or a lot of heavy equipment off our planet at once resuming. at least it is for space sex, c, e. o. ellen musk starship is supposed to be the largest vehicle ever sent to space . standing at 120 meters and stainless steel, it's designed to propel 100 people or more than 100 tons of equipment to orbit. and musk is the only space entrepreneur making that, that ah, he says it could ferry passengers around the world in half an hour. but he says his ultimate vision to colonize mars is built on ideals. life can't just be about solving problems. they have to be things that inspire you and going out there and pick up being a multi plan of species and being a space,

frank physician and making science fiction, not fiction forever. i think that's one of those things must, has had a tough year tesla. his electric car company is facing competition in a sector. it used to dominate and after paying $44000000000.00 for twitter in october, he told employees in march, the company is now worth up, but in just a decade space sex has proven that rockets once thought disposable can be safely reused. getting starship to the launch pad has not been cheap in 2020 and 21. early versions performed spectacular flips and plunges over the swamps of southern texas . but exploded on landing. the other way of viewing this is that this is just an experiment, like we're going to do this and then see if this is a possibility of a market. but if you can treat a $100000000.00 rocket as an experiment, there's a lot of things that you can consider experiments. the bigger question is, how or why such a craft would ever be used. we don't have any of the systems in place on how to

handle that sort of volume of people. what that social organization would look like . i would say that when it comes to thinking about can starship and what the future might bring for it. just because we can build a rocket, doesn't mean that we can build the civilization reminder must, who has celebrated previous failures, said the 1st test was always a 5050 bet, a safe prediction tone. baker alger or join me. now in the studio is francisco diego senior research fellow at the department of physics and astronomy at the university college london. thank you for coming in for pleasure, diego. so why is space ex, calling this mission a success where they have the nice to launch the largest rocket ever made, and actually managed to get a few 100 meters above. i think you gave the side of the stratosphere a few kilometers actually. and that was a success in a way. there were some technical mach functions that i don't know exactly what

happened that the fail to fill the touch, the upper stage from the lower stage. and then the whole thing couldn't, couldn't continue. but up to then he was a success. so there was no indication before this launch that it could go wrong. i mean, i know it's always a risk and we don't really know the details of what caused it to fail. but it would, you've been surprised if i had been a successor. was this always a a long shot? pardon? upon? it was difficult flight. these the 1st time that they called crockett all the all the 2 stages flight together. so there was a major risk because he hasn't been on before in the fall. and why do this now? why bother with this? what was the purpose of this mission? where the purpose of this mission is to start testing a new rocket that the venture would take people to the moon. what direction is not just a pipe dream or could really be sending people well this part. so we aren't in this program from not sure that this thing we've done with

a combination with the space x. and i might, my main concern here is that we are now seeing a large variety of, of easy to show on the space agencies and private companies like these one, natal going into space and in a kind of unrelated way. so he's going to be meet the for chaos in a few years time. i think he has to be regulated properly. not something you're concerned about today. see what is the appeal for many of these companies? is it they see genuine revenue, revenue streams materializing from this or do you? is it just vanity project? well, a little bit of both, i would say because there is money involved. was course on the, on the vanity of being successful in something i have never been done before. but certainly i would say that a shot to be brought in for a kind of international regulation. similar to the arctic treaty where we have on

a whole continent which he said doesn't belong to any body. and we have about 8 of the countries there doing a scientific exploration of the continent. and that on there are treat the buddies working very well explored that into space. and that would be fantastic. betty said not their space, 3 different united nations that these know why, you know, 60 years old and needs to be updated and implemented because otherwise it's going to be a major case. you know, i mean, is facing space x itself may have known sure, i thousands of little satellites into space. we can see them actually without telescopes on even with a naked i see there's little dots glittering, the sky everywhere. and just, just, just briefly, the risk of not the risk of not doing that, the risk of not doing that. i mean going into space, especially with people. and we can see these tests failing. and then of course, there will be failure and they will be people dying in this process because it always happens when you have these, these adventures of asia and those base space travel. but these are very,

very difficult environment. you need collaboration because people need to help each other and once you out on the moon was you are in the, in the, in the space station, not on the moon, is going to be extremely dangerous from bradley a shown from a different than, i mean 0 gravity, all these kind of stuff that needs to be our collaboration between now and the change of experiences between the nations. he has to come in a natural way. thank you very much for that. so bring analysis francisco did a few ideas for me to place you on the edge london with the news allister lead. oh, right. solar eclipse is delights enthusiastic. cross large parts of the southern hemisphere, bringing that story in the walkie box, get a fuss when in the n b a playoffs that's coming out in sports. ah,
