1:03 pm
and also along the cornish people are sleeping on the ground widows, children, elderly, the ill, every one. the un says the scale and speed of what's unfolding is unprecedented in sudan and says, the humanitarian crisis is at breaking point. oh, the head of the army, general abdel fat alpa, hon, is agree to extend to faltering cease 5 is 72 hours to allow civilians to leave an aid to be delivered. the permanent to greet the rapid support forces is also agreed to a temporary truce. it on the ground fighting continues across the country, including in hot tomb and it's twin city on demand. sudanese, you have citizenship or residency rights in the united states. wait to board a u. s. navy ship, ah, now we hope god brings peace through every one in sir down. we are sudanese people reserve heading in the u. s. people should not think that su down as being
1:04 pm
destroyed. no things have happened, but we wish to state strong. this group of somalis arrived in mogadishu from port sudan. oh, like i said, i didn't. so coca, i am pleased that i have finally arrived in my country. however, what we have been through is unusual and hard to describe, but i am grateful for the opportunity to survive bought for millions of sydney's there is no where to go that trapped by fighting in a country the un says is falling apart. victoria gay to be al jazeera. oh, we've got correspondence right. across developments on this story i'm address is standing by force in a border town, and chad having been tasa will join us from juba, the capital of south you down at 1st, let's speak to him. morgan, she's on the ground for us in call to him a about i see that the u. n. z y freed program is now saying that they're going to restart operations and sued on that's got to be good news, right. does that mean there's more stability now? perhaps well, it gives you
1:05 pm
a reflection of the needs of the people here in the capital and in neighboring states, because tens of thousands of people have fled from the capital hot tomb to neighboring states like j 0 in the central parts of the country. and river nile and northern states in the northern parts of the country. now, many of them are living in the open. they are living in schools set up by the of set up for them by the local communities. and they are lacking basic necessities, food, water medications. these are the needs of the people who have fled from the capital to neighboring states than that the people who are stuck in the border also in desperate need of assistance. many of them say they have been there for more than a week and have not seen a single 8 organization delivering any kind of assistance for them while the wait to cross the border into egypt. same situation in the eastern border with if you appear thousands of people stuck waiting for for the chance to cross the border into therapy for safety, but also lacking basic necessities and food and water and medication like the rest of the people who fled. so the wi fi resumption gives you an idea of the needs of
1:06 pm
the people prior to this conflict between the rapid support forces and mr. denise army. 15000000 people were in need of assistance. that's a 3rd of to dance population. and that number is likely to increase or probably has increased sympathizing between the rapid support for us as emma sudanese army. so however, it sounds like wi fi as operations are going to be taking place more outside cartoon now, inside the capital to people feel like the ceasefire. extension's going to make any difference at all what people are looking at what's happening on the ground. they're not much monitoring what the rapid support forces are saying or what the army is saying that they're waiting on the brief law and fighting for them to be able to access shop market or be able to leave the capital from 2 neighboring states or a neighboring country for refuge, people say that 15 to repeatedly over and over again. this is the fix, the fire now that's being announced by both sides. but on the ground fighting continues, we were able to hear a loud explosion around the vicinity of the presidential palace just
1:07 pm
a short while ago. and earlier we spoke to a citizen in the southern part of the capital hotel. and while we were speaking to her, we were able to hear heavy artillery strikes. so people say that they don't believe the worth the fire anymore. they still many people in residential areas without food with and without water, without running, without electricity for days now. and they see that d c fires and let that bring back the operations of institutions and facilities like electricity and water and banking institutions. they don't think it mean much on the ground, morgan corresponding on the ground in cartoon with all the later. thank you, have a while as he was just saying in the capital, residents have been describing just how hard it is to live with little access to food, water, or electricity remain high. normally, there is a big problem of safety. we hear the sounds of artillery from the side. it falls in the street in front of us, all the one behind. we have to sleep on the floor. there's no water or electricity, there's no food, most shop for clothes and the ones which are open,
1:08 pm
sell products at very high prices. we hardly eat enough. we only eat one meal per day so that the little food supplies we have are enough. and now some who already fled the capital are actually returning home as conditions often, even whilst elsewhere. but up into palermo, who are the reason why we left the use of food shortages, grocery stores, closed pharmacies are closed. you live in a reality where you are not scared of the gunshots, but worried about leaving home to find nothing, no bread, nothing. because after we spent 2 days in l, my more district, we had an idea to move in a group to mcdonny thinking that housing that's available. and we discovered that we live in an area where electricity has cut off the 15 hours. the situation is very difficult and rent is too expensive for many people felt that they went from a bad situation to a worse one. yes, there is war in cartoon. it is a pity to leave and i saw these hardships, but it's better to face them at home. earlier, we spoke to saline darwin, whose relatives are in port sudan, struggling to make it back to the u. k. of
1:09 pm
a 3 year old cousin whose for tish national, she's with her mom, his sudanese national. they're refusing to let them on the plane to severely sick. she is supposed to have a life of surgery due to it getting infected, but of course the, the void got cancelled. she's been an agony screaming since yesterday. so she has to get on this plane and they're saying 1st they told her that she could go on her own, but the mom cannot go because he doesn't have a visa, which is absolutely ridiculous. this is a life or death situation. if an infection spreads through your body and you get steps as you will die, so are they willing to let a 3 year old child die? the border because the mom doesn't have a visa, the whole family has a british possible except for the mom. and i think that's absolutely heartbreaking . whereas the humanity in this, she's sick, she's 3 years old and she'll be see me, her mum who she's, she's dependent on. she's been in agony shivering and screaming since yesterday.
1:10 pm
she's a child's other than the crisis help line where we haven't really had much, you know, conduct. we haven't had any number suggested to us. the community, the city means community has had to come together and share resources. and some people like me or has helped me get on the 0 right now. she's been the only person that kind of could take us through the law and all the right. the eligibility for a british person is that the spouse or children are allowed to come with them. but when it's a child with a parent, it doesn't isn't apply it, which doesn't make sense. all the fighting incident is also disrupting the flow of goods to neighboring countries and chad, fade prices going up the floor and that, that speak to another address isn't andre, that's in chad near the border with saddam. and that is, we've been saying for days now, people are still arriving at what sort of stories are you hearing from them?
1:11 pm
harrowing experiences, by the way, and these numbers keep increasing daily. the world food program in particular says it's budgeted or is estimated to feed at least $20000.00 people. but so far we've visited a few camps. you're talking about those numbers that are close to that figure. 20000 people and that is even because some borders close to this part of this trend, chide are still inaccessible by people trying to flee the fighting, especially in the western region. they're talking about violence in those areas. homes been destroyed and burned military outpost being deserted. and then of course, the threat of violence being practical and physical where are with ethnic malicious trying to enforce certain rules and also talking i communities or people who are not from their own ethnic i class. so basically that's what is happening with the grout. and when you cross the border into taught the conditions. yeah, i really,
1:12 pm
really as bad as most people, if not all the refugees who crossed over our living outdated, the open under trees. and when you talk to them, there are 4 things they talk to you about. they like shelter. they like food, they like medicines and the lucky water, nasty conditions they are in now. and because of the amount of people coming in and the board is that close to so through the eastern part of time, things are getting more and more expensive. by the day i supplies one out at emmy bry him to heb has come to address market to buy groceries only to discover . he can't afford many of them. now he says, your family must adjust allusion. oh, well, i know with a lot the what previously we could afford 3 to 4 meals a day. not any more, eating twice a day. these days is difficult because food has become so expensive. the village of address is an important trading point. but the fighting across the boarding so done
1:13 pm
has changed everything for many people. while there has been a steady stream of refugees at this crossing point in through eastern charge, the flow of goods have been severely disruptive. fighting has almost cut off this side of lung lock, charged from sudanese port that supply many of the imports it needs to be shot. i said is a saudi. this refugee and trader who brought his stock with him, explains why things can only get worse in the coming out of the prices have gone up because airstrikes hit our main goods depot. in cartoon, the road is close to transporting any goods is very difficult. anyone with stock will now try to sell at a higher price. beckett and re market vendor struggle to find buyers for items that only a few can afford. well, most of that is a little more of, you know, going on 100 businesses slow, but we're grateful. local authority,
1:14 pm
say prices, especially food items of risen by up to 70 percent in a matter of weeks and that the government is looking for solutions. planning to subsidize some good. it's an additional burden on a country where millions of people are ready, struggling to put foot on the table. the united nations children fond units of is saying that the cases of mandatory soon is, are beginning to rise in this area. this is of course, an area that is poland. 2 are far meaning food shortages and foot is secured in general. and the situation in the neighboring part of are in the neighboring areas of southwest, sorry, weston duffle area. we keep seeing more and more people coming in, for example, yesterday, inside, andre was seen 50 sudanese arrived along with 20 indians and these were lucky people or earlier the people were spoken to have escaped. the
1:15 pm
a valez in western tough were especially in the town of rob and the town of janina . are they talking about the difficulty negotiating passage through a short distance to get to the side of china? simply because the ethnic malicious of such a broad block and when you negotiate one ethnic militia, you have to go to another. for example, one individual told us that he had to negotiate 4 days to access only 500 meters to get into time. not the situation there and because the violence still continues in that area. remember, western therefore has seen a lot of violence over the last 20 years because the violence continues there. there is that uncertainty as to what is going to happen. as a result, people are just leaving that area, trying to come to the site and when they can't, they move father towards costume and other cities inside. so then why the fighting is now even worse. so that's the situation on that part of the board on the training. the 10s of thousands on is amelia transfer. how correspondent on the
1:16 pm
ground near the chance you'd on board talking of 3 conditions. thank you so much on that. well, let's get an idea of the situation now, enabling sas. you don and bring in our correspondent, hiring the tasser. she's there in the capital g bar for us. i will, i understand people are heading across the border there to some of them refugees, others returning home. the influx of people coming in to south to dine is putting a lot of pressure on limited resources here. this country has its own crisis. they is violence and the parts in some parts of the country agencies say is why they tried to call these simply isn't enough money. tell anyone everyone. so basically what local business doing is that they are going around shop to shop collecting items like food in medicine. my name is to be a port they put on to cargo plays and it's loan to the border with. so dod way, thousands of people are waiting to cross no supplies. i need to help them and to be able to cross into south sudan south today has a strong relationship with god. this used to be one country,
1:17 pm
a broke away in 2011 again, independence from saddam for the 2 parties. i still very much linkedin, but they didn't sell the kia, the leader of south to died in as the saying that because of his influence and closed pies with warring factions in sudan, he's been talking to them daily on the phone, trying to get them to come here did you buy told to face to face talk to try to resolve the crisis in saddam, but until that happens, and if that happens, the concern, of course, is the people who are trying to make the way to south than 1000 for them. start along the border points along the border with how to die. they need to food in wards, video, child video trying to get to wherever they're going. most of them are from south to die. and so they have family and friends in the country. others who don't end up probably in the cabins for displaced people that are scattered all across the country. it's a huge amount of terran crisis in the country with limited resources. hiring the tougher there with all the nations for us from the south sudanese capital. thank you so much high well let's take
1:18 pm
a very briefly back to the sudanese capital now to show you what that cease fire extension currently looks like. in cartoon, i'm told that that is an air strike the aftermath of an air strike that what we believe to have a taken place on our surf positions there in the sunni is capital. you can see that problem of smoke rising above the city where several hours into that 72 hour extension of the cease fire. you can see what the situation is like on the ground. well, let's now bring in in us khalifa. she is a sudanese doctor who works for the u. k as national health service. she is currently in wad madonna, that's an eastern student in us. thank you for joining us at such a difficult time. i understand you usually work in the u. k, but you headed home to your family for ramadan and eat it's been quite the home visit few yeah yeah. hi, thank you for calling and giving me the opportunity to talk about my situation. yes, i'm one of the of dr. walk in month. one of the funds that i came to see that in
1:19 pm
from a don just for the day and i was meant to fly back on the 27th of every and then obviously everything. 9 and i live in cartoon with my father and my parents. and in the 1st few days, we didn't want to be cartoon because obviously we didn't want to be able on house. but then things got got extreme divorce and the situation was difficult to the point that we couldn't leave the house to, you know, to bring a, what usually i got usually groceries and everything. so we have to be called to him to another city with my live, to what i need, which is 3 hours on the journey from go to what he was harder, but he was unsafe and we've been stopping one of the trick points. and my dad was threatened by gotten from the military forces because he thought he works for the government. so the trip was what was very unsafe and was horrible. and then finally, we made it off the for hours to what met any where my live and we're seeing it's
1:20 pm
a half at the moment. unfortunately, a few days later the which is government evacuating people from control and the old people to go to i to say not to catch the evacuation. initially i was planning to but then i've got few colleagues trouble there, and the been declined evacuation because they don't call the british passport and they called at residence. and that was, i want to just ask because i understand that and it has doctors who on british nationals were initially being turned away from evacuation flights. but i believe the u. k. government has done a utah now, so you could get on one of those planes, but i understand it would be you and not your family. how do you feel about? yes. yeah, so that's, that's another another issue. so when they eventually change the rules, i said ok, and she has book that could catch those flight and go back to the u. k. it was only for a 4 hour time. so how would you expect me to leave my family in
1:21 pm
a while on and then just, you know, save my life and then just catch one of those. my so i felt betrayed because i've been in stock. so i worked through the bank that make my own life on danger when i was walking during the corporate band and that wasn't really come through that from the government. i felt betrayed. i got my immediate family was really, really in danger. and even when they, when they decided to evacuate the doctor, it was a very short notice for everyone to continue. it's like because obviously everyone missed don't you know? because it's a boys don't. so no one is actually singing that out. someone to come to watch. so you 23 hours where everyone is like you. 6 was indeed an actually watching live pictures from khartoum at the moment and seeing the plumes of smoke rise from the city, the city that you and your family just managed to leave in the last few days. and obviously thousands more main traps that in taking
1:22 pm
a step back. i understand when the revolution happened to dawn, you were very supportive of a push for civilian transition. when you look at your country today, do you think not still possible what you hope for the future? well, i mean, it breaks my heart, watching all, all of this happening, especially alphabet of illusion. we had really high hopes because we've been ruled by the military. people for the past 30 years and it wasn't really the best thing happened just so that illusion happened. everyone had like all the folks in the upcoming to us. but then again, another cool happened the 25th of october. last. i'm not the coke today. so it seems like whoever doesn't have anything to do in the morning from military, they will just wake up like 2 o'clock today and just everyone's life and danger. so it just, it's really disappointing me as someone who lives outside. i was always looking forward to come back to sit on sunday and just, you know, help them you know,
1:23 pm
improving the medical and also happened today. i don't even feel like coming back all i wanted just to take my family out of this country because it just, it feel horrible that you know, you can never predict what people and the government to do tomorrow without being in mind people's life. so it's just the same thing and i think anyone listening to your story would completely understand that in a scholarly for the sudanese doctor who works for the u. k. is national health service currently stuck in was madonna in eastern student. thank you so much for joining us on al jazeera and us, and we wish you and your family all the best. thank you. thank you for calling my hostel, pansy moorehead. he is news our including us efforts to reduce tensions between azerbaijan and armenia as a checkpoint. threatened to read like decades of conflict under the allies on the south china sea, the philippines and us strengthen their defense cooperation in sport, liverpool and tottenham, producer, 7 gall thriller, and the english premier league far will be here with us boy.
1:24 pm
ah, i'm moving on to another conflict now and dozens of people including children, have been injured and ukraine after a series of overnight russian missile strikes. most of them are in pavlov. right. that's east of the new price. well, let speak to charles stratford. he is in the capital, kia france, charles, is it right to think that these attacks are intensifying and if so, do we know why that certainly increasing infrequency over the last week or so. this is the 2nd barrage in the last 3 days. certainly the ukranian authorities are saying that the of the 18 missiles through russia launched there's multiple targets. we understand here also in the care of region 15 of these missiles, the ukranian sank were intercepted. but it does seem as if there was contact made
1:25 pm
certainly large explosions in the city of pablo grad, as you mention, some pretty dramatic footage there. all of, you know, the aftermath of the site and all indications was suggest that this may well have been some sort of weapons depot. there are so streaks of smoke heading sky would suggesting that this was ammunition exploding. there's been no comment from ukrainian authorities other than them saying that this was a so called industrial area. they also say though that they i believe we're having some audio difficulties there with our correspondent charles stratford. we'll leave it there for now. moving on and thousands of people and cities around the world, a marking international workers day in the u. k. it follows labor disputes not seen
1:26 pm
the decades. many are expected to rally in london. well let's be tar. correspond to andrew simmons. he is there in the capital with those rallies. andrew, i see those crowds there with you just how strong is the feeling there among those strikers? oh yeah, it's really quite so angry. it has to be said, the strike has got on since before christmas, december last year. i have been times when it was looking hopeful that would be a resolution. but right now, this strike is the most serious, yet it's affecting intensive care units. it's affecting dialysis chemotherapy, so out of all the strikes afflicting the u. k. right now, this is the most motive i'm with me now, is linda toby, a you do in dallas's?
1:27 pm
how do you feel right now? you feel the minutes and would you describe it as militant angry? how would you describe your move? i think different people do different things to people. hey, listen, the angry minutes in a range, isn't it? feelings inside a disappointed that what we saying about our concern is no i i've been low in patient, i believe patient high rise will not be enough nurses inside it. what more do you say to the public? you think maybe you've gone to full? would you see headlines suggesting that nurses who are there to care for people to get them better actually endangered lives by their action? i think not addictive. taken this slightly, and there are a lot of people that i knew made up their minds. a
1:28 pm
our feeling is that patients are at risk every day difference. there is a way to do the job that we signed up today by the care that we we signed off to provide and in the long a. yeah, you all make you exemptions, role of college of nursing is making exemptions in areas where things are critical . if you recall, right. know the emergency would you go in and i think a lot of people who would, i think, you know, there's been a, we do with every day, but that we're apologizing for every day that week because they're on a very hard to get a
1:29 pm
would you describe this is support from the public that you're confident keeping. i think we have it now. i think i think people, i think patients are themselves aware of what's going on. so yes, i think this, i mean at least we'll keep it because we're doing the right thing. we fight it. there's a few points, so that is so held in a very serious way from linda toby, a critical care nurse here at st. thomas is hospital that this strike action will go on until midnight on monday, a bank, holiday lea. okay. other time when the tension 0 getting higher and you 7th there with the latest, from the streets of london for us this international labor day. thank you, andrew. well, tens of thousands of people also rallying and south korea's capital to mark the day . trade unions are demanding a raise to the minimum wage,
1:30 pm
and they're also speaking out against government policies that they say are anti labor. it's the largest may they're gathering their since the coven 19 pandemic from mcbride as one of those rallies. and so with more in a country with such a strong trade union tradition, labor day, you can always be guaranteed a big turn out. but this year, especially so given that many workers feel squeezed by the rising cost of living, that they feel their wages simply on to keeping pace with combined that with a conservative administration that many workers feel simply on the listening to them on that side with big business, it's all day made worse by a controversy over the length of the working week. currently, workers can work a maximum of 52 hours in a week. the government has been talking about increasing, got to 6 denied hours, but that's causing such a backlash. they're now talking about a compromise of 60 hours. if we were to work up to 60 hours,
1:31 pm
we wouldn't be able to use our annual leave and you'd be absolutely no time to rest . single right now, $200.00 new nurses are quitting every year and there is no one to fill the vacancies. tens of thousands of workers are taking parting riley's throughout south korea. 2 of the biggest are here is this one is organized by the korean confederation of trade unions. they have been listening to the speeches, judging slogan. and this on rather organization, as it often does, will also be calling for a general right july. right, i'll just narrow well, rally is also taking place across multiple cities and indonesia and the capital cost of thousands of people marched towards the presidential palace. they won the repeal of a new job creation which was passed in march and then to attract the foreign investments. and critics have benefits big companies rather than the workers and the environment. rallies are also, as you see,
1:32 pm
that taking place in the philippines. thousands of people gathered in the capital. manila, trade unions organize the march to highlight the hardships that work is face with an increase in unemployment and rising cost of living. members say they want wages and job security. i still ahead here. we look at how a giant plot the seaweed is causing a smelly situation and need and, and thought it was a shocking night for one history making team for me. and they told me coming up, they were a it's may the 1st, let's get going with your weather update for europe and africa. great to have you along and will kick this one off with the ongoing heat in southern spain. but slowly that heat is being blown out by the way we painted on the colors stark,

fell last week after it revealed that customers had withdrawn a $100000000000.00 and deposits in march. that was also the month that silicon valley bank and signature bank collapsed, causing fears of a wider market fall out. well, let's bring in vicky price. she's the chief economic adviser at the center for economics and business research. she joins us now from london. vicky, let's start with what consumers will be perhaps experiencing this morning when they go to their bank branches. they won't be fast republics anymore. they'll be j. p. morgan branches, will anything else be different? well that's right, that of course, what they will feel is a little bit more secure because as you right, you said they're been huge withdrawals of funds from 1st republic. we've seen that actually happening in a number of smaller regional banks as well. and that has continued for a while, so the 1st republic issues have been around for a good few weeks now, despite some support that they got from some of the bigger banks that put in more deposit into 1st republic, just to guaranteed can carry on operating for
1:39 pm
a while and it did, but i'm afraid there was a lot of concern as to whether you would survive. and whether of course, you know, given that there was a limit to the guarantee of deposits of $250000.00 in the u. s. which is a lot higher than it is in europe or in the u. k. a. what you found is that quite a lot of people with a lot more money. and do remember there is a big wealth management on which has hundreds of billions of nearly 200000000 of us is that he was managing, they're all got quite worried and started removing the money. so i think that will feel, consider me, will a certain that money safe and, and of course what we've seen is that there is now a guarantee basically of all those deposits which j. p. morgan has taken on. so that is a huge change from how things where before we've seen that happen, of course, with the rescue of silicon valley bank as well, then the rules changed overnight. the key, so in this case in order to get all of that guaranteed regulates,
1:40 pm
is actually stepped in here to try to sort all of this out. and there also, i'm going to have to pay about $13000000000.00 as it is, even with j. p. morgan chase getting involved now, given the anxiety that we're talking about after the failures of silicon valley bank seeking to bank. will this actually be enough to think to reassure everyone? no, i don't think so. i think what is going to need to be done is i think the regulators will have to think much harder about how the regulate and how the accounts are presented if you like, of some of the smaller banks. because of course, they have loads of unrealized losses so far when that try to balance their assets and liabilities where they have tried to do is to sell government bonds or perhaps commercial assets that they have commercial property assets, which of course are very difficult to sell and the government bonds, treasuries have come down in value very significantly. so there is a huge mismatch on that is because of the very substantial increase and interest rates. so in that environment, in what we've got at present isn't good enough for those of those firms in terms of
1:41 pm
when you look at it from the outside, there are risks attached to how they operate. so that the ability of some of the smaller institutions, they're not that small actually are some of the smaller banks and known banks to survive is going to be in question and we're going to see a lot more consolidation. thank you. blaze. well, in terms of that consolidation, i'm curious about what's in it for the big banks. what does j. p morgan get out of this? and, and do you see a broader consolidation across the entire banking sector? i think is going to happen in the u. s. where they have many, many more banks and is the case of population if you like, per person than is the case in europe. and we have loza nurses, one the banks dealing with particular regions in particular sectors which we don't necessarily have in europe. i think there's going to be a lot more or less traditionally happened in europe after the financial crisis, not so much in the u. s. and i think that will happen in terms of j. p. morgan. we see that a little bit also with u. b. s. and credit suisse when chris, of course,
1:42 pm
was acquired by u. b. s. there is a wealth management as part of the bank 1st republic. it was a very well known bank and was to see, to be doing the right things, if you like. and that wealth management is, is worth a lot. and i think that would be what jacob morgan is taking on is not taking on a lot of the commercial debt issues that 1st republic head. so it's been quite careful about what is taken on. and so i think it is probably, you know, quite a good move for j. p. morgan to have done there was an auction and the seem to have one that auction. there were a number of other banks which were interested in it. and of course, they get loads of guarantees, goes and sold in terms of loan losses from the authorities in the us. very interesting indeed. and, and also indicative of a broader trends that we're seeing. vicky price the chief economic adviser in the center for economics and business research. thank you for joining us and out of there and sharing your expertise with our speaking. thank you. now you
