but i am grateful for the opportunity to survive bought for millions of sydney's, there is no way to go that trapped by fighting in a country. the un says is falling apart, victoria gate and be al jazeera as go live now to help morgan in the capital, hard to me. what can you tell us about the fighting today and the disruption it cause to cease fire? yes, another one, at least a nearly half a dozen stripes or more in various parts of the capital, hard to fussing with the northern parts of the capitol. now fighting has been ongoing between the rapid support forces. and this is denise army to control several locations in the northern parts, despite the numerous fires, including the latest one. now in the early hours of the afternoon, around 12 o'clock local time, that's around 10 gmc, and strikes launch by the city news army around. what's the residence in battery, say our, our physicians included hitting a fuel tanker. that's the result that the cause of

a dark plume of smoke rising for a period of several hours over the city of battery in the northern parts of the capital residence in eastern off that that they were able to see, fight the jets and see the 5 digit launch, as again, several positions which they also confirmed belong to the rapid support forces. now around the vicinity of the presidential palace, there was heavy artillery strike. and we can see a fire in one of the buildings around the vicinity of the presidential palace. it's right now under the control of the rapids support forces, but the food in these army wants to regain it back because it's near the vicinity, off the general command of the army headquarters. this is, of course, as the fire was agreed upon by both the cities army and the rapid support for this, but on the ground, people who have been trapped here for 17 days now say that they have not seen a single fire actually manifesting itself. and him, but one important development from today, obviously concerned about millions of people facing hunger instead of ation and so

on. this is already a challenge before this conflict. but the un while food program and said that it's lifting the temporary suspension and put in place after the death of the members of their team. how important is it that they are going to resume that programs while it is significant, because tens of thousands of people are actually facing a di, human hair and condition, especially those who live in neighboring states to places lead to 0 or ribbon our faith. they've seen an influx of people leaving the capital, hurt them to settle there because it's safer, but not because they are human parent assistance. they've been rely, relying on local assistance to be able to provide them with food and water. but many of them say that they need medical assistance that the food being provided is not enough because there are thousands and thousands of people to share the food with them. and many of them are out in the open. there are some organizations that are already on the ground trying to count the number of those in need and trying to provide them with what they can. but then they know who military flight coming in

many stores and warehouses belonging to a 2 commissions have been robbed and or burned to the ground in various parts of the country. so the most organizations actually have a little supply here to provide those in need. and the needs are huge, even before the fighting started between the rapid support for this and the sydney's army. 15000000 people were in need of assistance. and that's affairs of the population. and also our with the fighting and with the continuous displacement of people. that number is now much higher. thank you from hard to have a morgan reporting to us. but there are some people who flint, the capital at all returning home now as conditions are often worse for them elsewhere. 11 to paloma, who are the reason why we left is juice 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 and nothing. because after we spent 2 days and more district,

we had an idea to move in a group to mcdonny thinking that housing that's available. 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 and cartoon. it is a pity to leave and face all these hardships, but it's better to face them at home. when the world food program has said that it's going to immediately resume its operations and sit on as you just mentioning that they had suspended them, started the fighting off to 3 of their employees were killed. the organization is saying that there are many people that need of life saving assistance now that it's urgent and you ro is the su, don, country director. a law firm security assessment indicated close to about 15000000 people who are severely food in skill. now i should also point out that this is on the back all the economy

strains we just raised. denise, i've been busy and even though we have an outrage, harvest this year as a result of the economy situation and you have quite a number. oh, houses was now going to have 3 square meals a day and we this is gone fleet out of the displacement, the number would only increase. and we seen a violence and said on is also interrupting the supply of goods to east and chad. that means the prices have shut up. many people can't now, ford even basic items and interests reports from just near chance or death on how they are having to adapt to the new situation. at emmy bry him to happen has come to our dre market to buy groceries only to discover. he can't afford many of them. now, he says his family must adjust a little older. i in love with the latter. what previously we could afford 3 to 4

hoping to remain in office after 20 years and power or tens of thousands of people have been riling across south korea's capital. trade unions are demanding of raise to the minimum wage and are speaking out against government plans to make the maximum length of the working week longer. this is made a gathering was the largest since the coven pandemic started now to columbia the present. casela. petro is called on a supporters to take the streets on may day to support his social reforms. the ratty comes days off to pet to replace several minutes of the ministers in his major, and his 1st major cabinet with shuffle. since he took office last year and a sandra b as he is lifeless in bug, aton. but it would seem as though there are, there is some serious opposition to these social reforms if he's had to replace several government ministers

that has been the case a so far, especially since the 5th or the 1st the left. he spread his events in the history of columbia, had managed to create a large correlation with that traditional establishment part being a parties here in columbia, the liberal party, the conservative party. but many of the members of his cabinets that came from his dose parties that were criticising guy, many of the policies he was proposing. and in particular, when it came to the helped reform that as really been at the center of this crisis in the decision i'm part of appear through to do what you're seeing behind me call on the people to support the reforms while also restructuring. he is the government with the close allies. the big question here is where you will find the votes, though to pass those reforms the in congress. now, how is the financial markets reacting to the sacking of the finance minister ches

antonia, a camper, a well respected economists. and i suppose if the perspective of the markets, they saw him as being someone who could moderate some very radical policies and decision. so what's the reaction likely to be that how much instability could that cause? absolutely so much so that o'campo was known as the fireman minister because he had to turn out a number of fires when other more radical members of pharaoh scabby. and i had said something bad that sent shock waves through the currency markets. for example, the pacer had been a folly and get a st spectrum, took off as they were. it went back up and now on thursday when he announced that as he was sacking ocampo, the base of the local currency last 3.4 percent, there was also the cost of boring her money. the cost of international bonds went

up. and now peter put another renown, the an economy that and that position my one that is closer to him and what the markets are worried is that he's not be worthy. he will not be as willing o'campo was to star as to try and say, so we need to stop. this is how far as we can go if some of these reforms are to cost. all right, thank you very much for bugging. tell a center in p at you're pointing to us regarding developments in the united states now the fail, the 1st republic bank has been acquired by rival j. p. morgan chase. in a $10600000000.00 deal. regulators had taken control of 1st republic, a 3rd major bank in the us to fail in the space of 2 months. shares in the bank tumbled last week after it reveal customers, it withdrawn a $100000000000.00 in deposits in march. last non silicon valley bank and signature bank, both collapse hosing fears if a wider market fallout, christian salumi has more on this now. while us regulator stepped in in the early

morning hours and seized 1st republic bank and then turned around and immediately sold it to j. p. morgan chase. i'm standing outside of the headquarters here in manhattan, new york. this was after a weekend of intensive negotiation to try to prevent another bank failure that would cause panic in the market and just trust among investors. the government stepped in did these negotiations and chase came to the rescue. first republic, of course, had been teetering on the brink of collapse ever since those other 2 banks collapsed in march. the issues for all 3 of the bank were similar. they relied on wealthy deposits and wealthy depositors who were not protected by federal insurance . if a bank were to collab, this issue for them is rising interest rates. they had these loans and investments

that last billions of dollars as a result of rising interest rates and they just could not keep up. so again, this quick action on the part of chase bank, which they're hoping will prevent other banks from going down the same road. $30000000000.00 had been invested in 1st republic, but that was not enough to save us. president joe biden is currently hosting is philippine counterpart at the white house budget. and marcos junior is making the 1st visit to the united states fire leader from the philippines and more than 10 years. he significantly improved relations with america since taking over from a trigger to test a in june. top of the agenda is defense, cooperation with more ease of increased chinese activity in the region. well, i white house correspondent, kimberly how can join us live now? so i guess there is a, a shared interest here in tensions flaring with china and how to approach that.

and there's no question that that is the big concern. that is really what these 2 leaders are discussing. they're in the oval office now and what they are talking about is really how they can strengthen their military cooperation, as well as their economic cooperation. according to a senior administration official that previewed this visit, this is really about broadening that partnership to counter the scope of threats and challenges that both face in the inner pacific. and so to that end, what we know they have philippine government has said that they have encountered increased threats and harassment from china with respect to the philippine navy as well as the coast guard. and so the united states is looking to try and assist the philippine government in terms of modernizing its fleet, but also making sure that it has the tools and the capabilities to address some of those concerns. and it's taken 10 years from meeting august 8 place between the

philippines and the united states. is this a significant shift away from the state of the relationship on the previous philippines leda? there's no question that it is an end to give you a sense of that this meeting is coming on the heels of one of the largest joint military exercises to take place between the 2 nations in some time. and so this meeting follows up and really builds on that, that taking place in just the last few days. so what we've got is these 2 leader sitting down now to talk about how they can build on that. so what they are going to be making in terms of announcements coming out of this meeting that's taking place in the oval office, is the united states is going to be transferring some equipment, see 130 aircraft 3 of them in fact. and in addition, they're also going to be of coastal patrol vessels that are going to be transferred to the philippines as well. there's going to be a setting up of a new

u. s. trade mission to increase u. s. investment. but what we know is that the administration is billing. this is an extremely significant meeting. what they hope is that this will really sure of the military and alliance, but really, it will also allow for the philippine military to become much more capable in terms of its ability to counter the threats that the united states says that not only in the philippines is encountering but also the region as a whole. oh, okay. well thank you very much. i white house correspondent, kimberly alcott reporting that on that meeting, taking place there at the white house between the u. s. president and the philippines president finance macos junior. now one chinese devil has put his name in the history books despite being on a wing and a prayer. junk shoe bang launched himself from a helicopter wearing a wing suit aiming at the giant arch of the town and cave to traumatize away. it.
