10:08 pm
a more sustainable cessation of hostilities and then trying to get the country back on track to the transition to a civilian government that it was on before the violence that are up to derail that effort was when jordan has more from the state department in washington. the situation is this back in august of 2021. the u. s. government put out a travel warning for sudan, basically telling americans don't go and if you do, you're taking a lot of chances with your life, if you do so, primarily from the threat of terrorist activity from the threat of kidnapping from local political violence. obviously the situation in the past 9 or 10 days has a really made things very much of top concern. so much so that on saturday, the u. s. government evacuated some 70 or so. diplomats and other officials working at the embassy and cartoon. and the embassy is now closed for the foreseeable
10:09 pm
future. now that said, the u. s. is aware of several dozen american citizens who are inside sudan, who are saying that they want to leave. it's going to be very difficult to try to get them out because the airport is still closed and trying to travel over roads is in itself a very dangerous operation. there have been attacks on convoys and people have been killed. that said, the u. s. government is going to try to work with these us citizens to try to get them out safely as quickly as can be done. okay, well let's go to have a morgan now who's in the capital, hot seam and hipaa we been hearing claims and counterclaims while the army in r s f. is it possible to determine those who controls walton is on going power struggle well, there's some areas that are very hard to determine, but there are other areas where it's clear to see which, which us side has the upper hand. when you look at the southern sides of the
10:10 pm
capital in the south eastern sides, for example, there is heavy or rapid support for his troops presence around that vicinity. and when you look at the northern side of the capital, there are some r, s, f, r forces present as well. and that's the scene of intense fighting between the rapid support forces and the sudanese army. but the army has also been making advances in some of these areas, trying to push back the rapid support forces, seemingly trying to circle them into specific area so that they can take the battle on from there. now the army says that that has been hard to do because the r s f has been hiding in civilian and residential areas and then, and they're trying to make sure that they do not affect our head civilians are in those neighborhoods. so right now it looks like while the ours have does control some sides of the, of the capitol. there's the general command of the army which is under the control of the sudanese army themselves. and then there's the presidential palace under the control of the rapid support forces. so both sides seem to be having equal standing grounds, and that's why i found the fighting continues here in the capital harpoon and hippa,
10:11 pm
what more do we know about evacuation efforts? we've caused some heard from the united states, germany, italy, norway, many others pulling that diplomatic teams out. but what about sudanese civilians? while sidney civilians have been caught up in the south fights between the r s f and the army from the very 1st day. they have been trapped in their homes for 10 days now with no electricity and running water in many residential neighborhoods. some of them were able to make it out of the capital, but something was booked to say that because of the continuous sounds of heavy artillery and the sound of fighter jets overhead. they don't feel that it's safe for them to go out yet. then there was the partial internet blackout that made it hard for many people to know the safest routes out of the capital. but the biggest issue right now for people here is how to get enough money and off cash to be able to pay the drivers to be able to get them and to, to, to get them out of the capital banking. but banks have been closed since the start of the fighting online banking operations have stopped. and even if it continues,
10:12 pm
many of them say that they were not prepared for this fighting. and so they did not have enough money in their accounts. and they haven't heard that they haven't earned their salary at that time. so many people say that the financial const constraint is one of the reasons why they still can't leave the capital. hot room hebert sounds good deepening crisis. sir aber morgan live in hot soon. many thanks . ah, no the news at least 12 people have been killed in 2 explosions at a police station and north west pakistan. dozens have been injured. police say they are not sure if the explosions were an accident or the result of an attack. the area in the swat valley used to be a strong hold of the pakistani taliban. or joining us live form islamabad is our correspond camel hider come on. what more can you tell us about this?

10:19 pm
magole, moving the stock of wood, the salad, and we were in the distinguished colleagues that she got just like in the years of the cold war, we have reached a dangerous possibly even more dangerous thresholds, where the situation is worse and with the loss of trust and multilateralism. when the financial economic aggression of the west is destroying the benefits of globalization. when the us and its allies are abandoning diplomacy and demanding to sort out differences on the battlefield. all this is happening within the halls of the un, which was created to prevent the horrors of war each school with you. and secondly, general antonio terrace said at the meeting that moscow is causing massive suffering and devastation in ukraine, or diplomatic as a james base. as more this is the russian presidency of the united nations. this is one of their signature events. they've called a debate of the security council about the un charter and defense of the un charter . now that has been attacked by many other diplomats who say it's very cynical
10:20 pm
because they say russia is the one that's violating the un charter with its invasion of ukraine. it's worth telling you that around the security council to day yes, formless, elaborate is chairing this meeting at foreign minister level. but most other countries have not sent ministers. the only 3 that have are the united arab emirates, gabon and ghana they've sent deputy foreign ministers. the rest are just ambassadors, so that i think is a snob to the russian presidency. and to mister latter, often a particular, i think a deliberate snub up from those nations are and at this security council meeting will continue for some hours because as a lot of speakers on the list to speak up. but at the same time, as the lab off will be lip nipping out of that meeting and i'm his ambassador will be taking the seat because he has an important meeting with you and secretary general. and i think the key focus of that would be the black c grain initiative, which russia a sounding like it doesn't want to continue. it's certainly saying that it's not getting any benefit from that. in fact,
10:21 pm
i spoke to the russian deputy foreign minister a few days ago and he sounded very negative about the idea of russia renewing that agreement. of course, humanitarian agencies, the wealthy program. another say that if that was to stop that it would mean the grain that's coming out of ukraine would stop completely, and that would make the world crit food crisis. so much was i taste and canyon our where dozens of bodies have been found on land owned by the leader over religious cult. the current total is $73.00, with a count still rising. authority say the people staff themselves after being told to stop eating in order to meet jesus. the pastor isn't police can't custody. catherine soy is in the village of ral connie. as near the town of melinda, he where the bodies were found. now the police and other investigators are now concentrating on this particular area. they have found several mass grees. you see those markings there. those are bodies that they are trying to retrieve so far
10:22 pm
as several people are, several bodies have been retrieved. this is very shocking. a lot of people are wondering what happened? how did you know administration, the local administration here, dropped the ball? how did people know that this has been happening, or we have spoken to the inspector general of police. this person in princess of anton, that is when the national police service got interested in his activities. and we are asked at him not once on a number of occasions. and you have presented that before the court of law. ah, he says that they are looking at her for the relatives who had been presenting themselves. they're trying to look for their loved ones. are there also are the for some of the people, one not did not just to starve to death. i. those war could have been suffocated.
10:23 pm

10:24 pm
after the government mobilized thousands of people to help fight arm groups linked to al qaeda and i saw to him to the us. now, a media report suggests president joe biden is expected to announce his reelection bid on tuesday of age. 80. he's already the oldest president in u. s. history, but he's brushed aside concerns about his fitness for a 2nd term. okay, well let's go to our white house course one. it can be held for more and there's a big moment. moment. big moment, of course, for you as politics. talk us through what we know about this forthcoming announcement. l. the u. s. president was speaking in the rose garden just a few moments ago and it event honoring us teachers. and one in particular and reports are asking about his re election plans. he was a little bit quiet about a little bit, casey, but he said that he would be letting reporters know about it very soon. he said he is planning on running and that we will get an idea about it very soon. so chances are we will know definitively. very, very soon, according to the u. s. president,
10:25 pm
what we know is that is likely to come in the form of a video announcement we've been hearing all week, but the day is likely to be tuesday, according to most people who are talking here in washington. although no officials are going on record saying that it will physically be tuesday. what we are hearing is that this has been in the works for some time. again, it's likely to be a video announcement that will be released on the internet. and you're right, there are a lot of questions about the president's age because come election day and that's november of 2024. the president would be 82 years old when he, if he did win reelection, he would be 86 when he leaves the white house. so there are questions about his fitness for office. could he do the job? in fact, there's a new pull out here in the united states that shows that of those people that supported him in 2020 other about 40 percent of those biden's of porters that do
10:26 pm
not believe he should run for reelection. so that's a problem for this president, as he embarks on running for a 2nd term of crookedly j bought in recently over the saudi atlantic, a whistle stop tour of oil and all of the great campaign video photo. what do we know about the timing of this potential announcement? well, the timing usually has to do with a lot of things in the united states. it always comes down to the almighty dollar money. and when it comes to campaigns in us, they're so expensive. and so what you can expect that is going to be timed with this announcement is a fund raising effort. and the reason for this is not only because it's expensive, but because when you run the country, it really is difficult to raise money at the same time. but if you announce that you're running for reelection, that frees you up to have a little bit more flexibility in terms of raising those all mighty dollars there. so necessary to kind of keep your campaign going. and so that's the reason for this,
10:27 pm
but there's also a little bit of risk in all of this as well. because the sooner that you are now seeing the sooner that you are opening yourself up to attacks. but the white house is pretty confident there still are some vulnerabilities, though. the president is dealing with some very high inflation. we already talked about his age. he's got some fragile and sort of approval numbers. but the white house is still saying, you know, histories on their side when you're the incumbent, typically you are re elected in the white house, says it's pretty confident the joe biden will make it for a 2nd term. all right, with the latest can be how kids live in washington. more than 3000 people are marching through dawson, mexico, one of several large groups of migrants that have been trying to reach the border with united states, but they're also demanding justice for my grants. who died in a fire at a detention center last month. andrea frederick reports ha,
