7:07 pm
and some of them are virtually living under trees. and they're telling us of the situation here is just for it. a lot of them say they haven't eaten over the past few days. now on this particular day, the united nations and it's ages is deployed to this particular area to see the situation for itself. it brought along tons and tons of food items to be distributed, to the refugees. and what, let me show you in particular, what's there for, for them? now these are sacks of grains rise as well as oil that will be distributed to the refugees all across this particular region. what is not clear is what happens to the other refugees. port number in the hundreds were yet to be registered by the united nations agencies. or relief ages this year. now, when we plan the camera to decide this particular family has just received its own share of grains. we can see it's like that's wheat and a few other stuff like cooking oil, pump oil grounded oil,
7:08 pm
so flour that could help the family get along until such a time that things improve in this particular camp. now the united nation, the wolf program is telling al jazeera that they have deployed ah, a lot of food items that will cater for only $20000.00 people. and the situation right now in this camp is that there are, it's put to more than $20000.00 people in the days to come. the united nations has projected between 120002 up 220-0000 people crossing from till done into this part of china. which means that the united nations and his indices and other relief ages, neatest tip step up their act in order to care for these refugees. a fewer shortage is a huge issue for there is even trying to get to the borders out there. as mohammed al, ty visit a fuel station in southern cotton la malaise, the lack of fuel has become a huge problem here in the south and south eastern parts of harpooned. the majority
7:09 pm
of petrol stations, like the one behind me, i shut down. tanks are very empty and the station is out of operation, getting your hands on fuel and has become extremely difficult. this has led to arise in the cost of transportation and subsequently food supplies. this is one of the major petrol stations on at 16th street, which close its doors after the fight and began. the sorting price of oil has had an impact on every aspect of life and health don. it's also affected the evacuation operations, even the movement of the displaced, the price of food supplies brought from outside the capital has also gone out. and this crisis is likely to get worse if fuel is not made available soon. some are taking advantage and selling fuel on the black market at higher prices. for example, a gallon of gas or just under 4 liters has risen from $8.00 to nearly 80 and is expected to rise even more, making it too expensive for most people. here we spoke to grocer's butchers and
7:10 pm
other shopkeepers, they told us they are facing great difficulties in securing their supplies to what the lack of fuel also means. many people can't move around by car, which is why fuel has become an urgent matter in this humanitarian crisis. oh, moving on to other news now, and the ukranian president says he's had his 1st phone call with the chinese leader . since the start of the war brought him his lensky, described as conversation with shebang as long and meaningful. she meant russian president that impression and moscow last month, asian says it's maintaining neutrality in the conflict. well, let's get more now from jessica washington, who's in beijing. jessica, i know president lensky is wanted this call for some time. i believe it lasted almost an hour. what did the chinese say they talked about for so long?
7:11 pm
well, the message in a statement from the chinese foreign ministry is that president, she conveyed a message that china stands on the side of peace. as you mentioned, president zalinski has requested some sort of discourse with his chinese counterpart several times for several months now. and this appears to be the realization of that effort. the statement from the foreign ministry also stressed that this call took place at the invitation of president zalinski. some of the other points that it mentioned is, apart from the fact that china's stands on the side of peace, is that both countries share a mutual respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity. and that is the foundation of that bilateral relationship. and that all relevant parties must stay calm and exercise restraint. now, the statement use the words ukraine crisis, but the was that it didn't use include russia invasion or war. and that's very much in line with how beijing has talked about the war in ukraine since the russian
7:12 pm
invasion of ukraine in terms of outcomes from this phone call. what we heard from the ukranian side is that they have finally announced an ambassador to china. that position has been vacant since february of 2021. and from china's side they will send a special representative of eurasian affairs to ukraine. and what that individual will be tossed with with examining the situation there and having in depth communication with all parties. again, no specification about who the other parties might be outside of ukraine. china has really tried to frame itself in this capacity as an international peacemaker, as a neutral voice, as a voice that stands for peace. what remains to be seen is given the close relationship that president, she has with president putin, given the fact that moscow and beijing had such close bilateral ties. whether that capacity as an independent peacemaker, can be taken seriously. jessica washington there with the view for us from
7:13 pm
measuring. thank you jessica. well, south korea's president has been officially welcome to the white house, the 1st u. s. state visit by a soft green leader. 12 years. oh, president joe biden greeted june. so joel, as a ceremony, there in the white house rose garden, defense corporation and efforts to counter north korea and china are expected to be topping the agenda. and that's been to our white house correspondent for the latest . kimberly, how could i, kimberly, i believe the 2 men are still in their bilateral meeting. i mean, obviously huge amounts for them to discuss. but this is really about sending a message to pyongyang that's absolutely right. this was timed for the 70th anniversary of the alliance between south korea and the united states . this being the state visit only the 2nd state visit of jo biden's presidency. and it is exactly that project, the strength of that alliance. and also the
7:14 pm
a sort of a affirmation that in terms of a joint declaration that is to be signed between the 2 leaders. this will be something known as the washington declaration. and what this will consist of is an understanding that washington, for the 1st time in 40 years, will begin docking its nuclear submarines in the harbor port inside south korea's us boundaries for the 1st time to project that might as a deterrence to north korea, which is shown very little interest in d nuclear zation talks and has continued to conduct to its nuclear missile testing . so this is something that has been of grave concern to south korea in exchange is part of this washington declaration. it will be reaffirming that it will consist
7:15 pm
under the nuclear umbrella if you will, of protection of the united states and will not seek its own nuclear weapons. so this is something that is being discussed in the oval office, but we should point out, it comes in a particularly tense time in terms of relations between south korea in the united states. that's because of the 2 men are also discussing some uncomfortable conversations with regard to the u. s. by scandal and the revelations from the pentagon that were put on line those documents with classified documents that were lead showing that the united states has a penchant for spying on some of its allies, including south korea and well this has been uncomfortable for the united states the south korean leader has come out publicly as recently as in the last 24 hours or so saying that there is still trust between the 2 leaders and the 2 nations. and that's what certainly matters in this alliance. so we are waiting
7:16 pm
a press conference between the 2 leaders when they emerge from the oval office, where they will have the opportunity to discuss the alliance, as well as some of those uncomfortable moments that may have been discussed behind closed doors, which we should point out is still continuing, indeed more than little will could, will have all the nations for you here on out there for now. thank you very much. our white house correspondent, kimberly how can well, stella had here on out of their guns and gangs and hazy, the un says it's reaching the levels ever was possible. scenario testifies, brazil's former president appears before an inquiry into his support. his attack on government buildings ah with while our next weather maker is moving into a pakistan hi everyone, we call this a westerly disturbance because it is coming in from the west anywhere from sim
