passage and warehouses. a looted air is controlled by bugs, policies, the us and saudi mediators don't true lot future talks at the end. the power military create conditions conducive for discussions to the us. national security tells us folks and drunk cubby has spoken 12. is there a he says, the bite and ministration is determined to hold both parties to account? it's not just sanctions. we actually took 3 sets of actions today. yes. economic sanctions against 4 companies and entities. 2 of which are supporting the r s s and 2 of which is support the sudanese armed forces. but we also impose some visa restrictions on a number of individuals. and of course, we updated our business advisory to, to make it clear to american businesses about some of the challenges there, uh, working or doing business in in sedan. so it was
2:03 am
a set of actions here. hippa morgan has moved from the north west of call to as they were more artillery strikes in the capitals up to them and says they as fighting between the power and military rapids support for us and the to the new army continues. now, most of the fighting was focused in the southern parts of the capital, but they will also artillery strikes, launched from the city of the mind to what's the northern parts of the capital to its follows and are to lose try keeping a markets on wednesday leading to the death of at least 18 and the injury of over a 100 others residents in the area plain, both 5, the recess and the army, saying that there is no military present in that area. and that the continues fighting between the 2 sides is leading to more loss of civilian lives. known as the united states, sanctioned several entities. incident, 2 of them affiliated to the, to the new army and to have them affiliated to the power amended through rapid support forces there's, i do need which is considered the economy capital of the recess. and there's 3 do,
2:04 am
which is owned by the brother of the commander of the rapids support forces. then you have the defense industrial comp complex. the company that is responsible for procuring manufacturing weapons and vehicles for the city, move army along with them master trading. now that is a company that the us says is affiliated to the defense industrial system, all affiliated according to the united states because of it through an employer longing, the conflict here in sedan. now there's also concerns over the talks and get the, the mediator, a saudi arabia and the united states announced that there suspending the talk because of continues violation by the 2 sides. now there are no other efforts on going to try to bring the 2 sites to sign another ceasefire, especially after several violations by both sides. and people here are concerned with the suspension of tough and this continues fighting between the 2 sites that they will be caught up in the middle even more than others 0. i'm put them on. so
2:05 am
it's like for the, the full season, these companies which have been sanctioned, the 1st on the list is on july, it's a call to base goal training. so i'm headed by the office of commend the home at home, the logo and his brother. then the, as the trade dies, a base company which is controlled by one of they'll call those young process. the affiliated entities facing us sanctions or defense industry systems. so those law just defense company and sit on master technology and government and dollars company that was previously be sanctioned by washington as have dimensions. now it has stakes and companies that produce weapons full the suit, denise armed forces, just in lynch, as an independent consultant, research a who co wrote the book stones, unfinished democracy. he's in washington, d. c, and joins the slide. mr. lynch could help you with this live on al jazeera. these functions, as we say, do focus on military hardware and the funds needed to purchase such items. it's specific in the targeting, as far as the us is concerned,
2:06 am
when it look as well. i think, you know, this is really a long term play, right? the kind of attempt here is to really starve the resources of both sides of both c, r ss and the student is armed forces. and the idea here is that over the long term that these 2 sides won't have the ability to manufacture the weapons of their ability to, you know, make money is significantly restricted. that's kind of the idea here. you know, the sanctions have had the very next record across the world and verify active this, you know, in many countries we see in the war, ukraine for example, how the sanctions have not been fully implemented by some countries particularly the way he. and so i think that the real key here is whether or not the u. a e, will really enforce these sections because some of these companies have partnered with companies that are associated with the u, a. e. and for the rush up. but certainly, you know, there is limited habit and this will affect things in the short run in the long run, potentially. okay, i'll come to the u a in a section and then i would,
2:07 am
let's talk about the functions of what that gonna work for the us. mean, is this a p r exercise for washington? or do they really think something concrete can come out of it? because as you say, saddam has, as well as one of many countries around the world being able to evade sanctions for many years under the us to pick up some very good point that you just made. you know, sedan is one of the most sanctioned countries in the world, going back to the past 30 years. you know, since 1989 when there was a military cooling studio, it has the really a series of sanctions. and actually that'd be 7. do it with tires with there's one on the stream is i'm, i can't number 2000 for the warrant dot for. so you know, there is not a lot the that hasn't been sanctioned into them as part of the state enterprise here. and what you've seen as a result of those sanctions is really sudan if you know, really become an operating ground for china and russia. these are 2 countries that obviously are not abided by us sanctions. and so what the, the history of us 19 has done into down is in many ways not pushed down into the,
2:08 am
you know, sphere of china and russia. and so whether or not it's a pure exercise. look, i think washington wants to do something and you know, sanctions um, you know, makes, you know, it, it makes it seem like the u. s. is doing something. i think this is a very long term play and its effectiveness. um, you know why it's real clear? yeah, let's get to you a couple of other questions. i want to ask people all the time runs out sanctions by the, by the us on these groups that are focused and based in the u. a. a significant as you say you, i use one country that is no way to comply with enforcing international sanctions. what sort of relationship will pressure was the us got to put on the you a with regard to these 2 entities? i think that's a very key question. you just asked about a month ago, jake sullivan didn't ask the security adviser visited um, uh sorry,
2:09 am
ray be at work where he met with top you a specialty met with top saudi officials as well. and i think that there was no real evidence that sudan was discussed in substance. you know, this war, 80 sudan will have global consequences in europe and asia in america. and this could be, you know, this is, this will likely be a defining advantage for africa. and in the middle east for the next, you know, a couple of years if not decades so far, we haven't really seen that pressure and that very, very high level of engagement from the us government donors to make those changes effective with the u. a. yeah, she pointed out sanctions to one side. there are also a visa restriction. i want to quote from the white house that was also as imposing these, these restrictions. but again, actors who up perpetuating the violence but did not to identify them. why was the white house actually identify these individuals? it gives me the impression that it's a very sensitive decision. i'm one that could be reversed if the situation on the
2:10 am
ground improves. you know, i don't know, you'd have to ask them. i think that's a very good question for your correspondence to ask. and we've seen this in the past for the us have announced sanctions without saying specifically who the individual and the reality is that sanctions are they have a very high legal bar. so there is documentation that needs to be collected from the us government side and to be cleared out inside the rest of the system. and so perhaps they did not have all those documents ready. that's just speculation. now i think you definitely have to ask us government, you know, um, you know, i think that back to your kind of question, which is a very good one. you know, extensions across the world have a very mixed record in some cases like we saw with us sanctions in a wrong. they were successful with a very targeted goal of trying to, um, you know, disrupt and diminish the iranian nuclear program. and other places. what happens is that it really gives dictators the ability to quote, rally around the flag. and what it means is that, you know, it, you know,
2:11 am
they can use these sanctions as a way to really rally support and say, look, you know, the world doesn't like us. it's be, i'm in, i'm your leader. and so it's a very mixed bags. and just across the world and um and so we'll see and see again whether or not they will be effective in the long term in the short run, certainly they will have limited impact. we shall see. i'm show for the moment just and they just thanks for joining us from washington d. c. thank you. so just had to go with that being violent confrontations between testers and police after leading opposition figure was sentenced to 2 years in prison, also in some cases. so i'm guilty of corrupting you've been acquitted of right charges, but he's supposed to say the trial is an attempt to prevent him from running for office next year. nicholas havoc has moved from the capitol deco outside the car universe. a battle between security forces armed with fuel gas

and protest here is responding with stones. so they're angry at a court's decision to put all positionally. do we spend some time in jail for 2 years and the judge found him guilty of corrupting the youth after a young woman accused sancho of rate? the verdict has angered his supporters with you as the president of using the justice system to eliminate political opponents. protesters target passing vehicles, including our car, breaking our window ship panic, the residents walk home to avoid being caught into violence among them saying the single largest. okay, what did you say? do you know what i want? nothing to do with politics? i don't even like politics. i'm not a politician. i'm just the labor working in a private company since 2017 and i have never witnessed such violence. i'm shocked to see the police behaved like this. comes up. i ask him if he's scared? yes, i'm scared. i'm so scared. suddenly, mass police take him in the police,
2:13 am
then he's being detained. the police are not giving us any explanation to why they've stopped the young man that we were speaking to, but the rights group had been denouncing the excessive force that the security forces had been using since the beginning of this trial rights group say over 500 people have interest in including journalist members of civil society and the political opposition. but the government says it is only maintaining low in order. police are trying to stop demonstrators looting supermarkets and businesses. we need 3 fives to file use duct found our nation, our unity, empty stability, and social harmony. the president sell calls for com and dialogue, but he has failed to make his intentions clear whether he will run for a 3rd term, fueling political tension for demonstrators. the latest verdict against sancho is unjust and a blow to send the goals, democracy, and it sparked further protests,

2:20 am
full 6 reports, a new best of grief and ukraine's increasingly under fi. a capital relatives more not great sides, but by then you'd be covered buddies of the dead. a 9 year old go, a mother and another woman killed on children's day. they'd run to a bump shelter under this hospital that found the door locked. they were still waiting to get in when deb refilled from an overhead masonic deception. doris loved riyadh jukes wife of 17 years. natalia was one of the women kills by the doors. so provo, just on that was elizabeth. my wife is lying that dead just because the god didn't open the door. they asked me to go around the building and wake him up to the brand . but then the explosion happened. shattered class started flooding, and i knew i had to run back in sure. cuz when i returned it was over, there was a lot of loud how women you chose. some of the children keeps mad. visiting the scene said investigation was on the way ukraine says, 10 ballistics and 3 cruise missiles were launched on keys. one of them in the set
2:21 am
did that and deceptions can themselves have fatal consequences that come footage released on thursday, showed just how close an escape drivers in the capital had on monday. when part of them is all came down on a road. the russian civilians to be describing this the of the early morning strikes on the board, a town of shipwreck, you know, in the belgrade region in video, broad cost on russian state television. people said they were forced to stay in place for hours. several residents reported the engine before evacuations could begin up severely. willis, it was terrible showing just terrible stuff, but they broke the windows, they broke our windows. we were very scared of yourself styled onto kremlin russian find is based in ukraine, least video of which they said they were preparing an incursion into russia. the unnamed size is saying the forces would soon be and ship aquino, and blaming the russian military for showing the area. drone video released by the freedom of russian legion, the board of the show,
2:22 am
russian military targets being destroyed, rushes defense ministry said it had repelled and attempted raid the ukrainian terrorist, full on with combat vehicles. one grab multiple me, solo and ship, and one pick up truck with destroyed in the board area on the cranium side. pick up . ukraine has been promising to launch its counter offensive for some time now. already the intensity of the fighting in this war seems to be increasing our youthful sit out, your 0. the us senate is debasing a crucial bill but will suspend the government's $31.00 trillion dollar debt ceiling. the bill must be part of the 3 the senate and be signed by president j by, by monday, in order to avoid a default on that, which would have global economic consequences. the us treasury has will. but without the dale, the federal government will run out of money to pay his bills by june. the 5th to june. 5th is less than 4 days away. at this point,
2:23 am
any needless delay or any last minute hold ups would be an unnecessary and even dangerous risk. this and any change to this bill that forces us to send it back to the house would be entirely unacceptable. it would almost guarantee default. so again, the senate will stay in session until we send the bill avoiding default to the president's desk and we will keep working until the job is done. let's go say if it's a shepherd, tennessee who's standing by washington dc and she already the 1st hurdle successfully jump into the house on wednesday. of course, looks like because of the debate is now on the senate, the rise and we're beginning to see a little movements as the leadership in the senate, both republican and democrat, trying to push for as soon as possible to avoid that potential for the default on monday, what we understand is happening right now is the leadership is circulating a proposal among or $100.00 sentences. and that proposal suggests that that'd be
2:24 am
votes on 11 amendments to the house bill. and then once those are done, there will be a final thoughts on, on the bill itself. no, actually what we're suggesting that none of these amendments come past as far as the leadership is concerned. because if any of them do pause, then it's a different bill. and it has to go back to the house for approval and went back to square one. so there's a little bit of a procedural symbolic sentence is want to express that dissatisfaction with the deal, but there is nothing to stomach. the percentage doesn't want to be the one to blame for global financial crisis having the house, having, having avoided the global financial crisis unit on that patch, sir, or 100 senators have to sign onto this deal for the procedure to get to avoid on that final bill, so we're waiting out to see what on this will be acceptable, but it's a 100 sentences what has not been announced. and there's been no suggestion of an announcement yet. is the timing if, if the sounds as do think the best. this is a,
2:25 am
a satisfactory way to move forward. we don't know them when this procedure will begin. will it be tonight local time, its now 7, 24 pm here in washington, or will they begin again in the morning? we're not sure about that. we have seen at least one senior republican, the 2nd senior republican on this side of is old as a rough defeats of boxes, as we don't your husband bullock bad as this could just be about getting a deal on guessing a deal. i'm going to get the get the vote on the for the 1st place. we don't know how quickly things will move once that is agreed upon. of course, we'll come back to as and when things may for them and she ever time. see thanks so much for joining us from washington, dc. a foreign ministers from the great of the blessing economies known as break. so meeting in cape town, present, russia, india, china, and the house south africa discussing the possible expansion of the blog mold and the designations of expressed interest. bricks nations have positioned themselves as an alternative to western j, a political dominance. for me,
2:26 am
the bill has moved from cape town. a certain ministers are changing. the brakes meeting in cape town, south africa have describe the block as a symbol of change. now the meeting comes at an opportune time, full south africa, who is hosting that meeting, as well as sharing the brakes uh, grouping this year. when the economic difficulties in the country, unemployment rate has worsened and it continues to have a crisis in terms of its power supply. this grouping represents a quarter of the was economic outputs, and it's one way of south africa is doing increasing trade, but also has to balance that with this relationship with the united states and the european union, especially given the increasing tensions between russia and the waste at a time when russia has invaded ukraine, and there's also a warrant of a wrist issued by the international criminal court court will put in, related to that invasion of ukraine, a, charging him with one legs,
2:27 am
war crimes. now those attending have said that this is a time for great to representation of the global south, and it's become increasingly attractive to a number of countries at least 19 of either applied formerly or have expressed their interest in joining briggs, including countries like indonesia, saudi arabia, any ron products to be considered comprehensive institutional development be approach topics as high as the level of interest. and this is a matter of satisfaction decisions very beneficial the times. some of the other issues under discussion by the ministers here is the state of the global economy,
2:28 am
which has been in distress following the coverage pandemic, as well as global conflicts. now the russian foreign minister say gala profit said that majority nations around the world have to find common solutions to conflict, likely touching on their involvement in the ukraine and the criticism russia is facing in that situation. now, south africa has said that it's neutral on the u. k and conflicts, but does increasingly appear to have deepening economic and political ties with russia. me dumler ultra 0 taped on south africa. they judicial pro because the notion, india to investigate recent ethnic violence in the northeastern states of money for the states has experience, weeks of interest in fine, think mainly between 2 communities of a special privileges. so guessing land and government jobs, at least 60 people have been killed and 35000 displaced. meanwhile, is involved,
2:29 am
but it will hold its general election on august the 23rd. the announcement comes as people struggle with a stagnant economy, rolling pockets and high levels of poverty. and the same time parliament has passed low, the criminalizes ex dean's palm fault to national interest, its fav, it'll be used to prosecute anyone who criticizes the government and gone and 8200 people remain underground. after caving us of mine, that would be probably says something, the size of the several people who go tubs were arrested. well, some mine is a current in a club shot states. believe many of those who are working, you legally are afraid that they'll be arrested. if they try to leave, so i look forward to say that they'll take legal measures against the mining companies. you're not saying that's no kind of gauge with you. so that's when it comes to numbers, percentage and sundays. a g a should be more efficient. and then what
2:30 am
this light is, what will happen then. it also the ticket costs, at least to prevent future. ok the you want to go to 0. it means the whole robin endo holder bind of all the top stories. the us and saudi arabia haven't honestly, suspension of talks to in the fight against it on the, on the on rapid support forces had already pulled out of the us, imposed sanctions on companies linked to both sides. it's not just sanctions. we actually took 3 sets of actions today. yes, economic sanctions against 4 companies and entities. 2 of which are supporting the r s s and 2 of which is.
