a 2nd week. me and my family considering right now my leaving the bar there is about leaving her house in everything like our belongings is just wait or are the like process thousands leave and thousands, a stuck in khartoum. afraid to escape? ah, until mccrae, this is al jazeera alive from dar ha. also coming up the world marks earth day as the consequences of climate change stack up. plus, she told herself that after all, her fear had done no harm. a voice that sounds like you, bess, isn't you. we explore the advance is an artificial intelligence technology. ah,

it's been one weeks since fighting between sedans, army and the rapids support forces broke house. despite as 72 hours cease fire, the violence hasn't stopped. there was a brief la la overnight, but on saturday morning, plumes of smoke were spotted over the capitol cartoon. there's also heavy fighting around the presidential palace and the armies general command. well, let's go again to have a morgan in hot term for us. and habit seems yet again at fighting is continuing despite both sides agreeing to the cease fire. just how bad has it got there this morning? while there's been in sante artillery strikes and aircraft shillings out aircrafts rights against the b a r s a physicians in the northern parts of the capitol hot a tomb residence from there said that they can see the smoke rising for the 6th day . now they say this is the scene that they've become very familiar with, and that the word cease fire has lost its meaning to them here in the capitol,

hot tomb. there's also been reports of artillery strikes in the southern parts of the capitol. and this is just this morning alone since the south seas fire was announced in the early hours of friday. there's been reports of artillery strides has been reports of direct confrontations between the sudanese army and the rapids support forces on the ground in the northern parts of the capitol hospital in several cities and residential areas and the southern parts of the capitol and has been reports of air strikes. now the most intense fighting this morning is around the vicinity of the general command and around the presidential palace. but that's been the situation since the beginning of the conflict that those 2 positions, those 2 locations have been where the r s f and they said in his army been trying to gain control of since the thought of the fighting as this cease fire, that the 2 sides agreed upon has not been implemented and implemented on the ground, at least not to the residence of auto. and we've been speaking to many residents who have been trapped by the fighting. and, you know,

they've been talking about the lack of supplies of food and water running out. can you just give us an idea of, i mean, do we know how many people are affected at this point in time? and exactly where in the city, where they are trapped and, and not able to escape the fighting. well right now, it's going to be very hard to get a clear figure of many things. it's going to be very hard to get a clue, figure of exactly how many people have died, because so many people, so many residents are around various parts of whom are reporting missing, missing loved ones and family members. and they say they fear that those family members who are missing may be caught up in the crossfire and may be lying dead somewhere. so the death toll that the world health organization is releasing is the number of people they were able to gather the dead bodies that they were able to gather those who are able to make it to the hospitals and to the morgues around the capitol. members, the number of people who have fled, there has been no exact count of how many people left at the capital horton because thousands have been looking to flee, looking for safe options outside the capital. more than $20000.00 have already left

via chad. they've cross the border into chad where they are in need of desperate monitoring assistance. but right now the focus in hard to him is because so many people have been cut out of power for a week. now they've been out of running water and may say that they're running out of basic commodity. some of them already out of basic commodities busy. they're trying to get out of the capital, trying to get out of this situation to somewhere where it's safer, where they can get basic necessities and where if they need, they can get medical assistance. okay, thank you so much. that's have a morgan for us and co term. as have mentioned, thousands of susan is a scrambling to escape the violence that aid agency say neighboring countries unprepared for the influx of refugees. center monahan has more people in cartoon are desperate to get out, gathering whatever they can carry, they're seeking safety wherever they can find it. many have already crossed into chat more or likely to follow. we would week next week. then hundreds and hundreds

of people that there had just been in the property that you were just deal made in teams and trying to charge me for are they not available? no, maybe 70 or nothing. chat has its own problems. conflict in climate change have left more than 2000000 people struggling to get enough to eat. and it's already hosting hundreds of thousands of refugees who fled conflicts in the region . agencies fear that won't be enough to go around. we'll dispatching boys of food date 410000 people only for 2 months or 20000 people or one months. and it's very complex. we are boring from a project and, but we really support. we cannot continue like this. back in food on the violence is an escalating and both sides are refusing to talk. those leading the fighting have no way of knowing if or when they'll see their homes again. centered monahan

they knew very well this fact how humanity treats the world reflects how the world treats humanity. 53 is on. we see evidence of that every single day. are you ins whither agency says the world's glaciers disappearing rapidly and saving them is a lost cause? the world meteorological organizations is the melting of some european glaciers has been in its woods off the charts. the past 8 years have been the warmest on record as higher concentrations of greenhouse gases have accelerated global warming. meanwhile, parts of northern italy are going through severe droughts or levels and italy's largest like, like garda, has fallen to less than half of its normal levels. environmental groups say the area including florence will be hit with a drought for a 2nd year or more than $2000000.00 people in thailand have reported sicknesses linked to pollution. equality in the north of the country has been classified as

unhealthy or hazardous. tony ching reports from chang my a passenger jet pushes through a shroud of white as it takes off from ching, my, this isn't low lying cloud, it's fine particle pollution learners, pm 2.5. and it's been hanging over northern thailand for the past 3 months. chain my hospital has been inundated with patients complaining of breathing difficulties, rashes, and skinner. rotations, the doctors say the problems a much more serious p. m 2.5 can cause brain tumors and hearted lung diseases, but it's rarely identified as the root cause. when we're right the their certificate, we say that their, their di, form, cardiovascular disease. you never said that chair did i found p. m to fi fi that, that it's fairly difficult. but yeah, this is a big part of the problem. shrubs burnt off in the forest that cover the whole of

northern thailand by the villages to live in these areas. in the hope of the ash left behind. when the monsoon rain comes leaf fertile ground for growing mushrooms and other vegetables. but it's the mass burning of agricultural waste, sugar cane and comb. with the real culprit, large agro businesses. take the product, leaving farmers to burn off. what's left behind. this is happening across thailand, miramar, laos, and cambodia. making the region one of the most polluted in the world where they were knit upon. pim, our chair, to parliamentary subcommittee on p. m. 2.5, pollution. it recommended the government subsidized farmers not to burn their waste, but nothing happened. and he thinks he knows why the problem is because of that, they become money. they're support some parties and us or support our military,

the prime minister himself brave the smoke to go out campaigning is an election next month. whatever i know you said you'd answer the question is when you had 8 years in how are, why have you done nothing about the pollution? this nursery school is having air filters fitted pollution. this bad can cut life expectancy by 3 to 5 years. children are particularly vulnerable, but as they settled down for their afternoon nap, even if it's only for a couple of hours, these kids will finally have clean air to breathe. tourney chang al jazeera chang, my thailand. the u. s. supreme court has ruled in favor of protecting access to a widely used abortion pill, at least for now, it's introduced a temporary block on a rolling from a lower court, which had restricted smith prestone. the pill will now be available in the next year while appeals. i heard the legal battle over the drug again earlier this month when a federal judge in texas ordered

a nation wide band she had pretends he has more from washington d. c. the legal battle over act serfdom. if a prestone will continue, oral arguments are scheduled to begin and the 5th circuit court of appeals on may the 17th. but while that legal process plays out, a majority of the justices here at the supreme court decided that access to the drug should remain widely available, then 2nd guessed to the food and drug administration, the regulatory process before those legal arguments have played out. in fact, there is some expectation in the, in this case will return to the supreme court once the 5th court of appeals has made its decision. but what a precedent it would be if the supreme court had agreed with restrictions on a drug that had been widely available for 23 years with proven efficacy and a lack of health problems. joe biden,

very quick to welcome the decision saying that this is another, another sign that the american people india need to vote democrat and create a congress where abortion can be codified once and for all. the democrats know, especially a time when joe biden has very low approval ratings. a democratic party in general, has very low approval ratings. as we saw the mid terms. this is an issue that swing voters independent basis and the democratic bass can get behind. she ever time see al jazeera washington, the still ahead on al jazeera, more african countries of to approve a new malaria vaccine after ghana in nigeria. get the green light. ah hello, we will see some big changes of the weather across se western europe,

as we go on through the next couple of days. we got banks of cloud rolling in from the atlantic. that will bring some much needed rain into spain and portugal will be at briefly where to where the 2 coming into france in some way. whether they're also making its way in across the north west, through the united kingdom and into the republic of ireland. further north into scandinavia, it's generally drive that drive by the coming to central pass. so a few showers, which will cease at wet weather, will trundle its way a little further eastwards. it looks like a wet day for the london marathon on sunday. then some heavy burst of rain in the forecast here, lot of weather to cross the low countries into france. northern parts of spain, temperature picking up to route 24 celsius in madrid on sunday afternoon. those temperatures will rise significantly as we go through the week. but any way we can be touching 30 degrees or more further north is a very different story. a cold arctic blast re knocking those temperatures down across got to make them wells into a good passive, but not in and the republic of odd and for the mediterranean. it's generally try and find

a good deal of sunshine that sunshine to cause northern parts of africa. heavy showers are very active now just around west africa and pushing further north. ah, the, the hook, breaking down the headline still exposing the power, attempting to finance reporting. what did you do? what did you investigate? why didn't you off the fact that there are many germans that felt fencer people have that you think effect on subsequent stories? the listening post doesn't cover the news. it covers the way the news is covered to suppress moderate, and in some cases amplify the content you see on your final bill. if he post on al jazeera,

ah ah, you're watching al jazeera reminder of our top stories. the sour fighting between sedans, army and the rapids support forces hasn't stopped despite a 72 hours si, fi after a brief law of a nice, there are battles on to why near the presidential palace and the armies general commands. people around the world, a mocking earth die by calling for action against climate change. wildlife populations have shrunk by nearly 70 percent since 1970, and the world has wound by at least $1.00 degrees celsius. the u. s. supreme court has ruled in favor of protecting access to a widely used abortion till at least for now it's introduced a temporary block on a rolling from a lower court which had restricted smith preston. bringing you back at to our top story now and the fighting between the army and the paramilitary rapid support

forces in sudan is entering its 2nd wake notched a man saw is an activist and a resident of col. term. she joins us from today. one's capital on the phone. thank you very much for being on al jazeera. now we've mentioned, did aid sci fi, which doesn't seem to have changed anything, answer down to this point in time. what's the fighting? been like where you are so far this morning. you can do here at the ground, the sound of the bomb being and the chilling away the way was a shilling. a woman died during dot shilling and it was really awful. and people have to leave the town for this purpose. and even this roots are not safe for them . so really there is no stopping of the shooting between the actually the situation is no better. no,

you have water. we have electricity supply, but it is, of course not guaranteed that this will continue. our main concern is the situation of women insur down because also there was an incident where there is an art for damage. oh girl who is this? apple passed away because she couldn't move you to the shelling the situation of children that this is the worst among the people into done now. yeah, we've, we've had the post civilians being robbed or targeted by by soldiers. have you heard or seen anything along those lines that the civilians are being directly and deliberately attacked? yeah, of course there was even a big down to the prison. the prison and the prisoners were outside the prison and they were everywhere in the district around the prison. people didn't seem

safe 40, even the police stations were attacked, evacuated from the police forces and we bones were stolen by the forces. so it is really very dangerous to move around the streets because you can be dropped even while moving in the streets as a civilian. thank you so much for your time. we really do hope that you stay safe. that is nice to men. so an activist and residents of card term, thank you very much for joining us on al jazeera can with the chinese foreign minister is in the philippines. as manila is staging, major military exercises with the united states, shan gung is meeting his counterpart as well as president ferdinand michaels junior . the countries have deep economic ties, but have rival climbs the territory and the south china sea combat drills involving nearly 18000 philippine in american troops. a cit to continue until the end of this

month funded below has more from civic in the philippines. chinese foreign minister in gun and philippine foreign affairs secretary and weekend manella meeting for the 1st time on saturday in manila, the chinese foreign minister also paying a courtesy call on philippine president for the nav marcus junior. now this is all happening against the backdrop of rising tensions between the philippines and china, which china not being happy about the philippines, giving access to the u. s. mil military for more of its basis. 2 of them very close to taiwan. though the latest of which are remark from the chinese ambassador to manila last week, he said, or he advised the philippines to unequivocally oppose high want independence. if the philippines, genuine, the cares for the 150000 and filipinos living and working in taiwan, ordinary filipinos and public officials. that taking this to well with some demanding the expulsion of the chinese ambassador. but in the opening remarks of

both of both the foreign minister support countries, the language was very diplomatic with both sides. saying that the sum of the relationship between china and the philippines isn't just the territorial dispute in the south china sea and both sides committing to peacefully resolving this conflict through dialogue. barnaby low, i'll just 0. so be, be the philippines. let's turn now to iran. the supreme leader, ayatollah ali khamenei, has used his ead message to call for unity. it follows months of protests against government restrictions, including the mandatory wearing, the he job l, just areas, dosage of our has more from to ron. it's something that he's been calling for many, many years. it's not anything new, but i think given the current climate in this country is in it's something very, very important. the issue is, and the mandatory hedge of women have been protesting against for months is

something the officials have gone back and forth on. and now they have started to put certain measures in place, including using the security cameras that are placed throughout the city to try and calm down on women who are not abiding by this law. this unity is an attempt to call for unity is an attempt by the supreme leader who is now 84 years old to try and rally the country together at a very, to multi time at stressing that these divisions only provide an opportunity for outside countries who are trying to create unrest in iran to use them as an opportunity to do so. so i think it is something very important, but it's something the officials here will listen to certainly at a time when there is many, many divisions within the society itself. more african countries look said to approve a new malaria vaccine that's according to the will health organization, ghana and jerry a have already endorsed the use of the new jed. however, the w h o hasn't approved the vaccine and detailed data from large scale trials is

not publicly available. this is a milestone for us. you know, it's been 30 years in the making. this vaccines are being lots of kansas that we've over 20 live. we've taken it to clinical trials or have not worked so well. that's, you know, from the outset from 2000 tons. well in pre clinical studies, 2015. this maxine has looks very promising. so it's, it's fantastic to seem to come through to the stage dr. thomas, when some another is the executive director for the african center for health policy research and analysis. he says the vaccine is promising, but more information is needed. it is good for us to have vaccines for malaria to save a lot of this. however, we kept the code because the vaccine hasn't yet received approval from w h. school yet still gathering data to analyze the key,

see and safety on our children. gonna not participate in the trial. and we don't understand how the n d can jump over the new each group and the countries that under the trial to approve of vaccine that we don't know of. and that, you know, harold, we need people who understand boxing to be the lead people to advise that the, the country. however, if you ask the societies that deal with boxes and none of them have much knowledge about the f. d, a does not have not tested the boxes of countries i've done, therefore, there is no news about it. and we know of skepticism in human boxes. we know what happened during the coroner virus, and there is people are skeptical about boxes, unless it is well documented. and then people accept the w to approve the doctors. and this may be hesitant even patient and may not allow the award to agree to take

the vaccine without any trial like that before. and then we'd malia back from which is about 80 percent. if he, casey, it was a challenge to get it done. what about a button that has never been tried and gone is going to be difficult to implement in sibley artificial intelligence can seemingly to anything humans can and more it can write computer code, create fake video and con voices. they can even pretend to be you. reynolds reports from silicon valley. where is my script? did i take my pills? artificial intelligence voice cloning can create highly realistic spoof videos and that would be to one national or recreate the voice of long dead artist andy warhol . for a television documentary, i went down to the office because they're making a robot of silicon valley start up, resemble a i did the war hole voice cloning and has projects in the works for several global entertainment companies. it's not like of technology that's imitating a voice,

but it's using the voice itself to, to, to speak. exactly. it's using the voice data itself, which is what the a i model learns from. and then it uses that data to learn patterns of that voice and be able to reproduce that to show us how it works. c, e o z o. have ahmed had me record a few phrases. she told herself that after all, her fear had done no harm. after a few minutes of processing, my cloned voice recited a 19th century poem on the sand, half sunk, a shattered visage lies whose frown? it'll be like extremely realistic to the point that the other person wouldn't be able to recognize if it's, if it's you or an artificial voice, resemble a i says it has strict safeguards requires informed consent from speakers and has a digital watermark on its products for verification. rapid advances in voice

cloning technology carry with them risks as well as opportunities and raise questions about the nature of truth itself. ro, programmers could misuse the technology to disastrous effect. so now imagine you're a 14 year old and you've made some tick tock, videos in which you've taught, and somebody goes and grabs those videos. cones your voice and then calls your parent and says, i have your daughter, send me a $100000.00 or we're going to kill her. and this is not hypothetical. in fact, it happened last week. bad actors could target elections, governments or big corporations. take your favorite, c e o, and i'm gonna create a fake audio of them saying that their profits are down 20 percent and i'm in a leak at on twitter and twitter algorithms are going to amplify it. how long before i can move the market to the tune of billions of dollars before anybody figures out what's going on. my name is ozy mendez, king of kings, experts and business leaders are calling on governments to come up with regulations

and safeguards and quickly to prevent this form of a i technology from getting out of control loop on my works, ye mighty and despair. rob reynolds al jazeera, santa clara, california. ah, this is al jazeera and these are the top stories, the salad fighting between sedans,
