our problem is how to get stalk. the factories in the battery region were bombed. the interior ministry, his deployed extra police of susan horton to stuart looting. but what people really want is a permanent ceasefire. so for several foreign mediated truces have barely held in the other one of these, a soldiers near a bridge that connects hotter north to the city of on demand. both are under heavy bombardment, as is the area around the presidential palace and army headquarters. the rapids support forces says it's destroyed a convoy of 200 army vehicles near their in recent day. every day, thousands of people decide it's no longer safe to stay. this rescue ship in ports he, dan, is taking evacuation to saudi arabia around 5000 syrian, say they're being processed more slowly than other nationalities. lot of for july.

to hear morgan in the capital, how tune he boasted on his army, confirmed to 72, our extension now to the sci fi within the last hour? do you think it will hold while people here and the capital hard to me have not reacted much to this new announcement overseas fire both by the rapid support forces and the food in these army. because the seen how the previous these fires have played out, they've seen the repeated airstrikes by the nice army. the artillery tried by the rapid support forces and the continued presence of troops from both sides in part of the capital her tomb. so many of them say that this, the fire is likely to and just like the other previous, the flyers. and that shows how much faith these people here have one person who we spoke to on whether they believe the sci fi would be different than any other. they said that that person said that the foreigners have evacuated. most of the foreigners are gone and hospitals have been bomb, so it's highly unlikely that the fire is meant for us,

that it's being mediated by foreign side and being forced upon the 2 sites. the 2 were in 5 by foreign sites with highland likely that it's actually the government or the sudanese army and the rapids support forces who wanted and as continuous fighting here in the capital. just about an hour ago, there was intense artillery strikes and heavy gunfire around the vicinity of the presidential palace. and there's been constant. the gunfire an air strikes as well in the city of undermanned in the, in the west of the capital. so many people see what's happening on the ground and say, because they're, they've lived in harpoon over the past 16 days in the seen, the previous, the flyers. they think this one will be no different. if you touched on some of the fighting. there's been tell us more about where it has been geographically and why some of these areas are important. while the full, the fighting mostly has been concentrated around the presidential palace and the vicinity of the general commander of the army. now the general command of the army is under the control of the army itself, but the presidential palace is under the control of the rapid support forces,

but because they're so close to each other. and because the presidential palace is a symbol of the leadership of the nation, the army wants to take control of it back then you have the northern parts of the capital with its been intense air strike and artillery shelling. now the army says it's targeting r s s positions in that area and the earth of says that the army is instead hitting residential areas. there's a lot of presence of rapid support for the troops in battery where there's been in tampa gunfire exchange between the 2 sites, especially in a place called fire bridge. that's the bridge that connects the city of battery to the city of undermine. now under mine is quite significant where there's also been fighting because it's provide a supplier route for either side and it looks like both sides. want to make sure that they have control of it to make sure that they have the upper hand in the conflict. have a moment. thank you very much. indeed. violence continues in west are for region still recovering from a long running ethnic conflate. the army and reference support forces have been

fighting around the city at janina. i'm in cojo is a human rights monitor and journalist based in duffle right now in the form of the report. that is no very clear, i think between especially between granted support ah, so that is the 40. but what is that, that is that missed of the level integrated? there is a rooms of money here are wrong. so that does in yellow t v in for on notice on friday or near la city and they have that looting ceiling. yes. before yesterday they have stolen, i looked at the hotel where is located near to the could it be quite thin, yada, near but it lost its support for this quarter. the men near la horton pointed up around it. they have a look at everything for the same thing that's going on in our project. many report

port you down. it includes about 8 tongues of medical supplies to help physicians treat wounded civilians. moving forward, the humanitarian group says it will need guarantees that it can safely transport supplies in hostile areas, including the capital, how to. so a food program is warning. the fighting and student could plunge the entire east african region into a humanitarian crisis. it says a 3rd of sedans. population was starving, even before frightened, broke out. another shortage of food and prices, a soaring, they've been similar. price rises in neighboring south sudan. and chad, which have taken in thousands of refugees evacuation flights from student have started arriving in south see donna's capital. how much are some at some of the evacuation juba, who say they traveled for days before managing to board a flight home early 3 flights like this every day. and they be sponsored by local business and say this service is free. people don't have to pay or they have to do is they give problems to dial to subsidize order and then want to assume that the

abided employ. yeah. did you but to don capital, we are selling them on the journey was like problems the guy. and they said that more people are still coming and it's mainly women, elderly and children. so i didn't, i really thought that i know foods that i know what people are dying. there is a certain lady who died because our baby bag that i normally because the bud see the buzzing id that i think it all it would be 50. yeah. even the, with the international community is trying to resolve a conflict in who died here in south dod. politicians are trying to organize, face to face meetings in representatives from this did in these army. and the primary are, is it again, the 2 side to sit down together may take time, harder, more towards the al jazeera,

the wagner group hasn't had the battlefield success. it is hopeful regards and promised that the city will be taken and it's not been finally taken. it's still divided. so on the russian side there would be a trying to allocate blame, post to blame. so gordon said that he's okay, his 4 soldiers are good, but the defense minister is not giving them enough support that they are the defense in this. the troops are not fighting as well, and they're not giving them the supplies in nations. so it's kind of the blame game going on there in a situation where the russian or winter are friends of hers almost over. and it that she's very wicked. oh, on a very high price. there's not enough shows. it's for cracked a problem with the logistical problem. i had a production problem. the russian defense minister says that everyone's given his

fair share, that they cannot take away from other unit. so there's again again, a blame game. the main problem is a lack of battle field success, and that's really was fueling begin this exchange of public exchange of accusations. and mr. gas. lucas cal, at least 11 people in the northern indian said, have computer job 9 others have being treated in hospital authority, say they're investigating what caused the league to prevent more tragedies, mi nombre has more. ha, a tragic morning in the indian city of louisiana. several people collapsed outside a milk store. others were found unconscious in their homes nearby. in the morning we found that m as some people had collapsed. um and it looked like a game of contamination of some gas that had lead emergency service teams say
