refuge fighting between rebels, government sources, and at the same time transporting, gets to cartoons or from hard to to poor. sedan is also going to be almost extremely difficult to store and get going to be a big problem. because there's just like you said, this integration of law and order of storage facilities are being rob, pillaged throughout the country. wherever rebel activity exists, pillaging starts to what extent will this affect trade is within sudan itself? it's everything is halted. there's absolutely no commercial activity. no one has been the risk moving any sort of significant quantity from anywhere from the harvesting cities to the local stock exchange city centers to the big

market cartoon or to the ports facilities. no one is going to move anything because they're simply low safety. there's simply no security, and no one's going to take that risk. we must ask, you said there's no safety in, notwithstanding this particular industry, you are in cartoon. what's your personal experience been of this conflict? it's, it's horrible. there's fighting. there's gun battles that can erupt at any point in time. and these are, as you know, the recipient was very mobile force. they get hits in one place, they moving to a different place. they're taking cover and residential areas. they're taking cover and areas that are be hospitals, schools and they're literally hiding. we've been houses asking people to move,

asking people to leave their houses so that they can come in and stay there. and gosh, would have government forces or ambush them. so it's just been a complete, complete catastrophe for the country or home in nor will have to leave it there. we do appreciate you talking to us. thank you. now, astronomers in the us have observed a star swelling, a planet in its orbit. it happened in a solar system, some 12000 light years from our own. what is the 1st observation of its kind? telescope sat monitor the whole night sky caught the brief end of the 10000000000 year old stars life. it swelled, becoming a red giant, and then in the bright flash that lasted several days, it consumed the planet leave to be similar in size to jupiter. now strike my thousands of film and television right is in the u. s. has entered a 2nd day, the demanding better pay and working conditions,

rentals has more now from the centuries. it stay 2 of the writers guild strike here in los angeles were outside the massive zone. he pictures studios where their picket lines, as you can see, have been set up and want to talk to a veteran television screenwriter, todd kessler. todd, thanks for speaking with us today. my pleasure. may i ask you, what is the primary issue for you? why are you out here on the picket line? i'm out here for myself, but more importantly, i'm out here also for younger writers, the middle class writers in our business. we can't even afford to live in this city on what we're now getting paid by the streamers. and the networks they have drastically changed the way they do business with us. they have made us disposable . they've made staff smaller to work harder for less money. and we're not gig workers, we're not over drivers with all due respect to them. we are professionals and we're not being treated that way. the last time the writers went on strike it,

it last for a 100 days a. how do you see this ending? what, what is going to bring the 2 sides together? well, sadly, i think it's going to go on for a while from all i can tell because the studios and the networks have been preparing for this day for a long, long time. and maybe we've even been complicit because we've been doing our job for them. realizing that they're going to be banking all these tv shows for the audience to watch. so they don't even notice that there's a strike going on. i have a feeling, it's gonna be a few months, hopefully not. but i would like to think that the management would come to their senses and realize we're asking for an honest deal. we're not looking to get rich, we're just looking to get the kind of financial support we can to support our health care and our pension and support our families to these hard times. todd, thank you very much. so that is a perspective from here on the picket line, outside of sony pictures studios, and according to this veteran television writer, this strike could last for a long time. rob reynolds al jazeera los angeles,
