the the, there is no title that covers world news like we do, we revisit places the state houses are really invested in that. and that's a privilege. as a journalist, the reports of heavy fights in eastern and southern ukraine, as russia's presidents claims the counselor offensive is failing. the territory also coming on us prosecutes is on see the $37.00 accounting department against former president donald trump, which they are leg. he risk national security secrets including the nuclear program,

while fonts are continuing to spread in western canada, while those in the east showing signs in growth under control. and the war insides and sit on agree to a new 24 hour c spot on the 8th of since 19 have dropped 2 months of the beginning. ukraine way. there are reports of intense combat in southern eastern parts. russian president vladimir putin is ukraine's counter offensive. has the gun on this painting, but keith has offered a few details about it, so probations on the battlefield, on the hash ripples. so this is footage from a market and its own of homeless kinds its own. yes, good agent of russian control ukraine. it's one of the series of a tax cut, a dog from the past few days. yeah,

the russian city of what on edge edge on strikes and apartment building more casualties was reported for the regional government or the state of emergency. excuse me, the shows they took know there was a violent explosion. i screamed, and the plumber was fixing my dream. he saw it too. he shouted, it was a drone. and that was it. that was the explosion. fast like lightning. your green of our shot framing accusations over the shelling golf, rescuers and people being evacuated from, from other regions instead of following that's after the gulf cut down was breached following an explosion on tuesday rush hour blamed ukrainian shutting ukraine says it's a set to a phone call proving, gosh, i was responsible ukrainian forces, i've been going to attack in russian defensive positions in recent days. and why more school says it's false? is it better than a talk by ukraine's army and the solvent?

doing yes, kind of zip a whole jed agents process president says ukraine has to be gone account or offensive. first of all, we can definitely state this ukrainian defensive has started. this is shown by the use of strategic was it's, that's the 1st thing. second, ukrainian troops didn't achieve that ends in any area of combat. that's absolutely of piece. there's no confirmation of that from the ukrainian side. many believe gives next move will likely be towards the cost line to survive or she has access to cream. yeah. and for most goes next school president vladimir putin as a now was his comfortable start deploying tactical nuclear weapons and battles from next month on the hash. and i just see it all ukrainian, the price to go to mazda lensky has been praising his troops for what he called results and the done yet screech and shoot the school. but we are in constant

communication with our military commanders of the courts. it's on top of you agree to forces with all those involved in the most heated combat areas. the net screeching face has very tough battles, but there is a results and i am grateful to everyone who ensures this presented to me interested what the hall has more on this now from keith. a bunch of indications of heightened military activity by the ukrainian army along the length of the front line in the east and south in line with the expectations of a summer counter offensive. although literally in the way of means of corroborating the reports we're getting and that's because the premiums themselves are being very guarded with details except for the official policy. now not to give a running commentary of events. and you see that very much in the words of president zalinski phrasing his fights is in the east talking about battles on going to be about results, but giving no indication of what the results may be. he mentions back moved the big city in the east,

that is being the scene of heavy fighting some of the longest and bloodiest battles of the war. it was captured by the russians just last months, months he may be talking about incrementing gains that the trade ins it'd be making in the last few days towards the villages in the vicinity. of fact, most of the kind of deal attempt to try and circle the city in a counter attack against the russians in black moods. he said that have been results. he is grateful to those who achieve those results well done in black mood, he says, step by step and further signs of significant activity along the front line towards the south east ends up a regia region reports. there were repeated attempts by ukrainian unix to reach russian defences, potentially to try and touch supply lines to the south. those reports coming from the russians, not from the ukrainians who say they have supported those attempts and inflicted heavy losses independently, corroborating those russian reports of pictures. now out on social media that show

elected to tank apparently abandoned. secondly, damaged and in the company over a number of bradley fighting vehicles. the method to german made a course donated by several nato countries. the bradley fighting vehicles donated to the opinions by the americans and the presence of those vehicles on the battlefield would suggest the involvement of the units of the plane unami, specifically trained and equipped full of the stomach counter offensive. and again, no comment from the ukranian side. other than to say that in this house, the enemy is on the defensive. joe, the whole elder 0. keith is an urgent need to get more help and supplies into the townsend villages. florida its by the collapse, so the nova health could them both russia and ukraine a choose each other of attacking the structure. the kremlin says 8 people have now died in the flooding. ukraine says at least 5 people have died with 13 still missing. what about 22000 people?

they've been flooded areas or areas at risk of flooding on the russian controlled eastern side of the disney pro river, about 16000 lives in the area most at risk and ukrainian health territory. on the eastern side beyond the flooded region, the u. n says about 18000000 people in ukraine or in need of humanitarian assistance. international organization for migration says, as of march, well than 5000000 people are internally displaced within ukraine. for the u. n. on the secretary general for him on a tyrant effect as mounting. griffith spoke to l just here about the what the u. n . is doing on the ground of the ukrainian authorities. immediately after this, this done, a tragedy happened asked us to get access to the citizens over the other side of the river. and i myself personally, but also with many colleagues have been in touch with the russian authorities to get it to, to allow us to cross the line to get access into those areas. to bring relief to

those people. we all, by the way, still in process of trying to get that and i hope we will get a good result very, very soon. but we're also delivering through convoys and soon through boats crossing the river to be able to deliver some kind of help to those who look very close to that front line. we've now reached about 30000 people with your manager and assistance. that's a stop. what we need to prepare for festival, the water water supply problem it up to 700000 people without drinking water. that is an astonishing problem to face and we'll be facing it very, very soon. we are also, by the way, arranging to send a train to the new pro to provide a basis for the truck invoice. that is the people in this hall to reach areas that were most worried about. so water supply, that's the 1st problem with bad was it comes diseases, you know, color and other diseases where children are the most vulnerable,

the 2nd dizzy environmental damage that this, this reservoir was so important for livelihood throughout that area of southern ukraine. this is a bread box gets in normal days. we are involved as you know, and ensure that ukraine in brain reaches the world to improve the global south food security. this is a bad day for that because the waste stage that we are going to see in terms of the ability of those fields to stop delivering it's not going to happen any time soon. early environmental assessments are essential to, to judge what is now needed to take place to mitigate the damage caused by this a pulling act of some breaking news, not from columbia. the 4 children missing since a plane crash in the south of the country last month have been found alive, columbia, a net present. the style of the petro is just tweeted, quotes, it's

a joy for the whole country. the 4 children who were lost 40 days ago, and the colombian jungle appeared alive and quite all the children off from an indigenous community and went missing off the plane. they were traveling and crushed and sick jungle. the children were rescued by members of the mill. it treat firefighters and civil aviation authority officials in the countries southeast region. the sources said when a few minutes will get the latest small correspondence. i sondra around theater in boca time with more on that for us, federal court has revealed the details of an indictment against donald trump. the former us present faces $37.00 charges relating to the handling of classified documents, including the sensitive admitted transformation of trump has denounced the case as a hoax and collection interference official reports from washington dc. jack smith is the man who led the investigation into donald trump. he recommended to be

charged the 1st former us president to face federal criminal charges. we have one set of laws in this country and they apply to everyone of the 49 page and diamond liza the case against the former president in stock terms. it alleges he kept documents, which showed the defense capabilities of the us and it's finalized documents which showed with the us defense is where most vulnerable and it says by storing them where he did and how he did. you put it risk us national security, the safety of the military and intelligence assets are laws that protect the national defense information are critical. the safety and security of the united states. and they must be enforced, potentially spending the rest of his life in jail. donald trump dismissed the charges against them as politically motivated, sees, has been going on for 7 years, and they can't stop because it's election into affairs at the highest level.

indictment says the if the i try to recover the documents from his model, i go home with trump asked his lawyer to hide them, destroyed them until everyone who was cooperating fully compromised his new presidential campaign back in november. many speculated then he did it hoping to avoid any possible charges in any of the several cases. he faces his defense to go ahead. when his lawyer resigned just hours after defending him on tv. this is not a criminal issue under the presidential records act. this whole thing is a civil dispute at the most republicans, even some of those challenging him for the proxies. presidential nomination are still giving their support and i deeply troubled to see this indictment move for president bite and has repeatedly denied any involvement in the management of the case. president 5, have you spoken to attorney general merritt, carly donald trump is planning to push ahead with campaign raleigh. see plan for the we can organize the state.

there's been a rush of people who want to attend security at the port of the court house, where the hearing will be had, will be increased over the weekend to places like the f b. i headquarters. here at the department of justice island fisher. i'll just say to washington, which ice, nana is an attorney and the former chairman of the young republican national federation. he says the charges against the former president tom. very serious. trump isn't in in very much legal peril at this juncture. i don't think he's going to take it seriously though i think he does personally view this as a which i and i think there's a core group of republican voters who unfortunately it will see this that way as well. these are serious charges. jack smith is a serious investigator, and a very adept attorney. they're not going to find these charges against a former president without some level of, of seriousness, nation and ability to improve these facts. we knew that there were

a recording from 2021, existed basically talking about the exact facts which he was alleged up. and now you have people that his own inner circle, like martin meadows, who have kind of clammed up around him. but who potentially may have slipped on him and this investigation? you don't bring these charges without some incredible amount of evidence improve and also fax coming from within the organization. not just the trump organization with staff and more lot of secret service members and former staff. there was the white house. what we're going to return to our breaking news now from columbia. the for the children missing since the plane crash in the south of the country last month to be now fund. along with joined on the line now from the book a tall by i'll just here was out of sondra frontier to you. i'm a sondra. what can you tell us as well? we can, i can tell you that the both the president of columbia and it was several days ago and the military,

it has now confirmed that indeed the 4 miners have been found and the gold uh white glove, yadda in the columbia. and amazon, after a search that went on for uh, 40 days since the, uh, the small airplane on which they were flying at falling to the jungle. uh, they seem to be in good shape considering that they survived in the jungle for so long. uh uh, just to remind you and were talking about uh, a 13 year old. the girl uh, another 9 year old, a 4 year old. and the a top that just that turns of bind years old. uh, with his uh brother is in the jungle. uh, president gustavo paper said that the uh dish news is brings joy to the entire country. uh, and it was quite a surprise because after so many days people were losing hold through indeed,

buying them still alive. uh, another side of the story was also the fact that the one of the search dogs that were looking for the kids had disappeared. so that'd be what was asking, what happened to him. his name is wilson. he has also been found with the kids from what we heard from the military. and we were just able to see 2 pictures, where we see the 4 kids to rounded by the special forces called them in special forces and members of the beach and a 5 different groups of indigenous communities that live across the columbia and amazon. and in other parts of the country have joined this unprecedented, really uh, search and rescue operation. so definitely i, i knew that i have the entire country here extremely happy. and everybody here is hoping to hear more just more details of their they were found

that how they survived in the jungle for so long. now remember, these are indigenous kids. one of the person who always said he was convinced that they, uh they were still alive, was there a grandmother who said that especially the, the older kid, that 13 year old i knew how to live inside the jungle, find food, and so forth. i'm not assigned to it was such a confusing situation to begin with. let me tell you, tell us a bit about the area where they will last. yes, absolutely. this is a extremely remote area uh, in the south west of the columbia. uh, in the middle essentially of the uh, the amazon rain forest, but uh we're talking of, uh, an area. uh that has a very, very tech jungle uh trees that can be as 40 meters tall. obviously

many dangerous and the most makes. the jaguar is definitely not a place that unless you were born there you. ready know how to navigate, and this is a also explains why it took so long for the military and indigenous communities to find them. they were operating at the beginning on a huge, essentially territory. and then they, they started working from different angles at the same. so the and, and, and moving towards the area of, uh, the, the incidents now uh, throughout the mount months they were able to find some evidence that indeed the kids were still alive. first of all right, after the incident and they, they found a shelter. they found put brains, they found a baby bottle and so forth. and so finally,

and without losing hope today where they were able to find them. okay, i sons' around fiancee with that breaking news. thank you very much indeed. or what sort of head to hair announce this era, the underwater mountain with sciences. so searching for evidence of the list forms of life, the frank assessments. quite frankly. elizabeth dressed, the elephant in the room. the reason of the south koreans want their own nuclear deterrence is because they don't trust the us informed opinions. fighting has basically lock this thing up so far that it is impossible virtually for somebody else 7 to the race at this point in depth analysis of the case headlines. so then, case by the end of the states that there is no strong government to control and which means that this might affect other countries. inside story on al jazeera

episode of this series expose the imperial origins of the drug trade. commerce was good. fire. fire was good for the former, so these things very much wants to go into people's passage from the far east to europe and the united states. guns need money. only money in these mountains is open drug trafficking, politics and power. the era of empires on the government challenges here with the

2000 here. a mind about top stores this out in columbia, the 4 children missing as a plane crash in the south of the country. and now some months have been found to live on the and the price in cust of petro assessed sweetie. that it's a joy for the whole country from children were rescued by members of the minute treats fond lots of civil aviation authority. officials, countries, se, which tends to come back to being reported in the southern eastern regions of ukraine. russian president vladimir putin says he for the use crating and counter offensive has been gone. but keith has offered few details, fountas operations on the box in the field. for my us presence, donald trump is facing 37 charges and maintenance is handling classified documents, including sensitive military information. trump has described the case as a hoax,

and the natural interference in canada of fire in the western province of british columbia has prompted the evacuation of more than 2000 people. now the $105.00 burning that with the 4th is describing the situation as aggressive and one of the tile in canada is east. international crews continue to arrive to help fight the fight. and at the center of canada is west wall, 5 seasonal rate quote. with 4400000 hectares already, but there are 5 stretching from canada as west coast to is east coast. many of these have been burning for days and in some cases, weeks at the moment there are 424 active flies. most of them are still out of control. and a 140 of them are in quebec. it's the smoke from this region that is cause the how does this cost part so the us, gabriel, that is on the has more from $1.00 true. so there are hundreds of fires burning throughout canada right now,

but the majority of them are here in the province of quebec, where i'm at right now. it's believe just here and club back. there are more than a $150.00 wild fires burning at this very hour of those about a 100 are considered completely out of control. you can kind of see a little bit of the haze here. uh over the outskirts of the city of montreal. it is not as bad as it has been some other days, but you can certainly see the hayes lingering in the air here. and you ask yourself where if there's so many fires, why don't we see more smoke? the answer is because all of these fires are very remote areas, hundreds of kilometers to the north of here. uh 67 hour drive is north, in a very sparsely populated areas. that's of good news because it's not affecting a major cities or even medium sized cities. the number of people evacuated here in

quebec is about 15000. quebec has about $8000000.00 people in a total population, so that gives you some sort of idea. nevertheless, a canadian officials are considering this very much a national emergency and they need help. so there's been firefighters arriving from south africa from france, new zealand, and australia to try to help bite these fires. and what is making this particularly difficult is canada is used to forest fires this time of year. what makes this difference is they are all of fires of all started at the same time and are burning it simultaneously. this could be going on for a very long time for weeks or months to come because forecast or say they expect a very hot and dry summer in canada, exacerbating the fires and hindering the firefighting efforts. gabriel is on though, i'll just say to montreal,

no signs i saw searching for the earliest signs of life aboard or a search ship in the atlantic. their expedition to an underwater mountain called the last city has just come to an end coloring. baker spoke to them about that 3 month commission. welcome aboard the resolution. it's a 45 year old oil drilling ship, but it sailed most of its life as a science vessel. its crew navigated to soft spots on the earth's crust, where rocks that should be hidden deep out of reach are pushed up by the movement of the planet surface. in the middle of the atlantic ocean lies a mountain the size of month block. there's no place closer to the earth mantle the mysterious layer below the crust. it's called the atlantic mass of the last city. the scientists on board are studying these places where life may have begun. but here what's up for this we've, we've had this voting 1st reduction, which kind of poles like this?

if you imagine my fingers of the mantle, they were down there but they get pulled out like this until they are on the surface. and we see the mental in the law trust that's the only way we can reach, get to these by direct drilling, is where there's a fault. because these rocks do not full on the sea floor. and they find a bar hole that was drilled a years ago. using tools that can operate at high temperatures without electronics, they drill and scoop up samples along the way. they pull out the core, lifted to the surface in long plastic tubes and remove the chunks one by one. then the science begins. they want to capture every detail from the millions of years of history that are in bedded in each piece. so it sliced loaded onto conveyor belts and photographed the slips. we can see the inside of the box and we look for a couple of major things. first, so we look for the relations in the minerals that we see various type because it's

here in the alchemy of the early ocean. we're chemistry may have transformed into biology when the greenish mineral, all of the in contact see water, it burns in a chemical reaction, creating new minerals and releasing gases to a process called ser penton eyes ation. those gases, like hydrogen and methane, may have been fuel for the earliest forms of life. and understanding these reactions will give clues to so called excell biologists who are looking for similar conditions under the i. c oceans of the moons of jupiter and saturn. there's people who are looking at this question of where that founder is by looking at how life lives right now and trying to figure out what's common across all living domains. and so what, so those earliest forms of lights might have looked like the resolution is likely retiring. its annual us government funded $50000000.00 is coming to an end. the samples that digs up will be stored in volts for study in the years ahead. calling
