the numbers to reach the regional capital, it is proceeded, ask permission to send more military to its borders. unfortunately, they own the ones. committing crimes. agency only want is safe passage to reach the countries. they are poor, hungry, vulnerable, in no man's land. the, the handshakes but no promises yet. the top us diplomats is in china in the latest bid to stabilize relations the robot. this and this is all just a life from dell hom, also coming up a new suite, a 65 incident. and this one seems to be holding so far not to be improved entails african leaders, is willing to think about their piece proposals for the russian president blames

keys for refusing to talk on overhauling the constitution. people in bombing begin voting on the future of their nation. the, the us secretary of state is meeting china is foreign minister invasion. it's the highest level us official visit in 5 years until they bring him ensuing young are expected to have a working dinner off to the talks. lincoln's trip was initially time for february, but it was postponed. officer suspected chinese spybot and flew over us airspace. in a moment. we're going to speak to bonnie below who's standing by in new typeface sitting for us. first we're going to head to katrina you in beijing. we always hear a lot of rhetoric around visits like this, but it's all done to the deliberate of us. what are they actually working towards? do we have any indication what could be achieved out of this?

of the aging is certainly looking for insurance, is from the us assurances that it was middle and what it sees, its domestic affairs, that it will cost to red line if it's for interest difficultly, particularly tie $1.00 in the us, that deep link in your state has said that his goals are $34.00, to create a crisis management mechanism to promote us interests and to find some areas of common ground. now i have to say that the expectations in terms of concrete breakthroughs of, of this visit all very lower. but that doesn't mean it's not significant. china is neighbors in particular, of very worried that the relationship has gotten so bad that it is in danger of tension inspiring in our control and just some sort of open conflict, especially that we see the u. s. military and the p l. a trade, bob's accusing each other of unsafe maneuvers recently in the south china sea. but of course, this is not just about sitting god, rails, and preventing conflict. those about planning areas, possibly

a productive cooperation, particularly in the areas of climate change help and on issues such as stemming this little suspension. it's an interesting relationship, isn't it? because in the one hand, a lot of the stuff that we cover, and i'll just see it as geared towards the spots that we seen diplomatically and also militarily, as well with the movement maneuvers in the side of china seats. but the trade, the relationship between china and the us as an important one on one would imagine that that's going to be a central feature of the adults that are going to be taking place this, right? these are the 2 largest economies in the world, whatever they do between each other that really has an impact on global economy. but it also has been a real key aspect of the relationship in may during the g 7, a us president, fight in the cues. china, of economic corrosion, and other countries to the risk were essentially di, couple from chinese supply chains that infuriated badging. they said that those is

where i'm warranted. we have also seen from the us number of export controls, restrictions on chinese technology. companies in the name of national security. aging has dismissed at washington simply trying to contain china. but behind all these proceed awards this resurrect. we have also see between they do in washington, a very robust trade actually trade is the strongest and it has ever been. and certainly we're seeing many companies appraising between these 2 countries. want to see that stabilized by the and that relationship, the number of relationship even further as well. so that'd be watching this, this meeting closely. and certainly that will be on the agenda as well, between lincoln and the chinese minister to the thank you very much indeed. katrina you talking to us from beijing. we're going to bring it in bond. even though there's a new type, a city going by the way that tech katrina is, is talking one gets the impression that the future of taiwan, which is obviously going to be a key part of these discussions is effectively being decided between 2 other countries. what are the people in taiwan hoping far from these thoughts?

yes, because as katrina mentioned, expectations are low that there will be any major breakthrough out of these meetings between secretary blinking and chinese officials and the feeling is the same here. but people to welcome the fact that at least the 2 sides are talking and they're hoping that these talks would de escalate pensions in the taiwan strait. now, having said that, taiwan has been preparing for any eventuality, including our conflict. and so they've been holding military drills every year. at the moment we are in new type, a city which is a part of the greater type, a metropolitan area. and right behind me is a type a hardware, last year's drills. this saw that type of hardware as the mach enemy target. now, aside from military drills, civilians here and taiwan are also preparing for the eventuality of a war themselves. which these people from all walks of life spending

their weekend learning 1st, aid and survival. during the past year, the coma academy has held classes for thousands or wherever you book, potential chinese occupations. i'm very afraid that next price it will be our turn to beat our phone calls. so if there are any, some lecture like this to teach you how to be fun, some sort of like from china all just tried to the threat of an invasion may not necessarily be imminent, but organizers of a training camp. and those taking part say, don't want to get caught unprepared to the there's a lose the possibility of an aren't going to these. what should say, of course, there's no certainty when or if it didn't happen. but it's got to be that the to that end, the government is also playing it's part recently released and updated handbook and civil defense to teach us how to distinguish between time we needs and chinese

soldiers. and it has a link showing where a bomb shelters can be found. this some ways face any type paid doubles as an air raid shelter there, more than 5000 of them all over the city, from car parts to basement. anything under ground combined, we can accommodate about 12000000 people. the rising tensions in the taiwan straits aren't just between china and taiwan. however, earlier this month, the us accused the chinese worship of an unsafe maneuver. after nearly collided with an american destroyer, china told the us to stay away from the region in mind its own business team sites here in town when they use on us to overly worried about the possibility of a premeditated calculated attack from china. what tony's all worry about however, is the possibility of an accident. the escalation from all of these trying to meet 3 assets, airplanes, and ships in time was neighborhood high was president,

typing one has increased engagements with us officials to counter any threat. the annexation by china, china has responded with more military activity. now taiwan will be looking to the us to ease these tensions. pardon below al jazeera, taipei african leaders have been in russia are urging president. is that to be approved in to end the war in ukraine? the delegation arrived is in petersburg and saturday, $24.00 off the adults, ukraine's leader in keys. but putting this told the visitors that ukraine is responsible for the continuation of the conflict from moscow. i how shall reports? this is where the delegates from 7 african countries and veins, that initiative to end the war and ukraine. 24 hours after meeting ukraine's president involved to me. is it an screen key if they travel to st. petersburg, hoping to convince presidents document put in to accept their piece done. the particulars, i want to emphasize once again, we are open to

a constructive dialogue with everyone who wants to establish peace on the principles of justice and taking into account the latrice of interest as of the policies. the frequent integration is offering a detailed initiative starting with the escalation and ending with negotiations. we're here to communicate a very clear message that we would like this will to be ended. we say so because this will is having a negative impact on the african continent. and indeed, on many other countries around the world as a continent we are being negatively affected in terms of why economies. critics doubts whether the african initiative can work saying it lacks both the leverage and wait to push forward the solution or the see it as

a step in the right direction. now some of them are young, there are real settlement on this issue. you can begin early if there's a clear winner on the ground or support. there's a deadlock early in this case. can we talk about a 3rd party? and here the african initiative will have a huge cumulative effect. hold the previous initiative, the chinese applicant and the bazillion will come together at a certain stage that form the basis of a supplement to do that. then at 10 thought, i expect it to continue to bring both sides to the table. it's very rare that's african lee, that's also the mitigation to solve such a. busy a little bit twice for the water ukraine is having a major impact on the company, especially with the threats exposing to food supplies. and some are listed that even if the piece that doesn't go through, it's ideas could have a positive impact on the company or the action. just, you know, that's what a new sweet ac supplies begun ensued. um,

it was broken by the us inside. the ravia follows the killing of 17 people in an air strike on the capital hall to on saturday. the warning signs have repeatedly broken previous. these fires. sedans armies being baffling. the pot of military rapids support forces. since april will have a morgan's in on demand for us, the previous is far less than about a day. this one's 3 days long. are people hopeful this one is going to hold while this one is supposed to last for 72 hours and people here in the cap and some cartoon are really hoping for a respite from fighting, especially with strikes uh, hitting the residential areas in the southern parts of the capital called up to date, organizations are also hoping that they will be able to deliver aid to those in need. because during the previous, these firewood stops that for 24 hours. they was not able to reach many of the people here in the capital cartoon. but some of those who reside here in the capital, who we spoke to say that they wary because they've seen how that previous to 24

hours. these 5 played out. and some say that it gave us the opportunity for the fireman to wrap it, support forces to expand into residential neighborhood. now the sci fi and makes it very clear, they should be normally the 3 movements from either side, whether it's a denise army or the parent military rapids support forces and some of residency that they don't think the mediator is considered. the rapid support for says, occupying residential homes as a military move and therefore to not register it as a violation. so people here in the capital us on the one to the response, they want to be able to access markets. and some of them want to leave the capital because they're not sure what to come after the 72 hours these 5 period expires. but the other se that'd be worried that their homes will be off by on group. and they will lose everything they have here in the capital said, but thank you very much indeed. have a morgan talking to us from on demand. i was 8 agencies in the border between sit down and chat and say they're being overwhelmed by hundreds of wounded escaping the fighting in westdale for many children without their parents and dying with no food

. seemed to solve a report from the bought a ton of audrey. let me give you a warning. his report contains some distressing images. they survive the violence in to day. in chad, another struggle begins. 8 organizations say they were not prepared for the humanitarian crisis to become this big this quickly. people who arrive with gunshot wounds, one woman gave birth in this open field. they tell us men, boys, even young girls were taken prisoner one way. but for some the journey from west our floor was too much. when land has the boy has scattered people. the baby was sick and she died on the way here. the baby's mother left her here to search for her other children. her family and chad is seeing her for the 1st time. they don't even know if she had any of those who make it, try to find friends and relatives. there are re, unions,

the precious you and hcr is here. they are doing assessments and someone told us that they have never seen it. this bad that they are incredibly under funded. they do not have enough money to help people here with anything. and the, the international community simply doesn't care enough about this. price is good. it is just pure chaos. summarize only to bury the children. they fled here to say in the smallest graves, 2 girls and a little boy, none older than 3. their fathers did not make it across. the shovel, think died from week is because they had no food and their mothers didn't have the milk to feed the night of the dead because of hunger caused by the war. and not just them, probably the numbers will go up in the next few days. they tell us their government of their country and the world have abandoned. their situation, they say is hopeless. zane bus route. the old is 0. audrey on the track to the end

border charts. transitional presidents been meeting local officials and audrey. the government says 20000 uncertainties. refugees have crossed into charge since friday . in the past. we godrays registered around $45000.00 refugees. hi, my name is debbie is using his visit to highlight the scale of humanitarian crisis . the still ahead on now does it have an announced, impassive going? yeah, a new species of duck build dinosaurs. it could have measured up to 4 meters long and wait a ton of pocket stones pond to build the world's largest riverfront city is a threatening farmers. the, however, got the usual rush of heavy showers across south east asia, still some lobby storms, the into indo china,

southern parts of the vietnam in particular using across towards todd i. monsoon range, doing quite nice to know of course, fairly heavy shells pushing right up into me on my but i potential to say some heavy down pools. have you shy? was that right across the philippines in the heat of the day. but one of also, i think some very live the storms as it should be, is the dry season, essentially across the indonesia losey dry here, but always a chance of one or 2 showers to scraping the way in across the region show as long as spells a phrase scraping the way across the fall south australia, very blustery conditions most it was by pulling of show a cloud just showing up here, down towards the south australia. so roughly through the bytes very well when the weather coming into tasmania. eventually pushing across into web victoria. nothing further east was so be struggling to get to around 11 celsius the on monday in melbourne at also in heard about the challenges in snow over the australian outs as

per usual clear sky. so as we go one through, choose day, not too bad, temperature is trying to recover. so what's the weather up towards the north west? by this stage, i noticed kat and rain, maybe tennessee, even a foot toilet adults. a and a pioneer. first bolt. last which jones to play for his country. but one legal battles paid the way for a generation of brazilian players. foot building legend, eric townsend all introduces off one scene of penalized buyers club for his political beliefs. he took power into his own hands and plays the trails of players, writes football rentals on which is the the

the, you want to know what to say to a reminder about top stories this out. us 2nd, real estate on some thinking is amazing. china as part of message thing done in beijing as the 1st visit in 5 years. a meeting in february was postponed, auto suspected, shining spybot, and flew over the us. lincoln. and shouldn't i respect it to discuss the time one as well as trade on the south china sea and a phone call last week and said to us should stop interfering in china's internal affairs? i knew 3 days as far as the gun is done. the truce brokers by the us inside the way be as follows, the kenning on saturday of 17 people in an air strikes of the capital falls of opened in molly for a constitutional referendum is the 1st in a series of poles that are meant to enable a transition from military to civilian rule fonts,

a phone and say the proposals will give the president too much power. the military sees controlled in 2021 will for more than this withdrawn by nicholas hacked was that upholding station in the capital bama code next. how confident are people that their voice is going to be have of the well, in this pulling station in the polls have just been open for less than an hour. we've only seen a handful of people coming out to vote. and, and that's quite surprising. perhaps the threats from arm groups thing to all chitin i so has this weighted people to come out, but it's too early to say people here are excited about finally getting to have a say on how their country is governed. let me show you how these pulling stations are operating. there's a list of, of people who are, who are eligible to vote. and what's interesting is that most of them are born in the 2000. and for many of people that are going to be voting here today,

it'll be the 1st time that they'll be casting a vote now the election but a referendum where they're going to actually have a say. and the way molly is govern, and this is a big question, whether yes or no, they are for the changes to the constitution that the no account says that essentially the tweaks made to the constitution are not a reflection of muggy in society. they are offended for instance, that islam in this most and majority country is not written into the constitution. there also that offended by the fact that this a referendum is organized by a government that has not been elected by the military agent. but there is also the yes count. they say that this new constitution can bring print peace to molly, saying that it will give greater autonomy to the regions of molly. it also is a text that recognizes the diversity of the 1000000 people. and that can result

conflicts and divisions within the modern society. but it also gives if, if people who yes as a majority, it also gives more power to the presidents. the current a head of states, the muggy, and military just that will be legible to run in the upcoming election. so it's all about what's happening behind the voting booth here. and you see right now someone casting his vote. it's a very important moment for melanie is because these amendments to the constitution has been in discussion for the past 30 years. and finally, the multi 1000000 children has succeeded. where previous, the previous, the democratically elected governments have failed, which is to organize such vote in this country that is torn by violence, rob nick, from what you're showing as the process there in bama code certainly seems to be pretty straightforward and pretty efficient, but you were talking about the threats from iceland and i'll call you to as well

this vote is happening right across molly. one of the challenges in holding this vote was such a significant area. well yes in by my so the voting is pretty straight or head, although there isn't the international observers that you would find in a room like this sitting observing. this is happening under the management of the military, june stuff away from the capital, by my code in regions like 2000 or 10 book, 2 people are not able to vote things. you know, there is no vote happening because our groups in that region or boycotting this rep, right. and then into move to there's been a security threats groups thing to, i'll kind of talk about in the 2nd the, someone was the mean have made open references and open open threats to those that come out and vote. and those that go to pulling stations. but there is also those

that are living in the diaspora that was, that has led molly and we're talking about millions of people that have led the violence in body. those that are in the ivory coast will be able to vote. those that are neighboring countries will be able to vote, but there's a large part of the population. and i've met them here in the lycos that have fled the violence. and essentially the country that have that have the most that stink in this referendum that will not be able to cast their vote. but having said that in a region where there has been a number of who in the region, in 14 of 5. so in guinea, molly is the 1st country to take steps towards a constitutional order. the pay was a way to return to democracy. so after this referendum, this brings a, this, the next step would be the presidential election of 2024. and what's important here is that multi is, are finally getting to have

a say on how their country is right. rob, big, thank you very much. indeed. obviously as things unfold of the next few hours, we're going to be checking back in with you. but for now, nicholas, hank and bummer code, thank you very much. indeed it on this president. abraham lacy has been officially invited to visit saturday, or maybe in the late assigned of improving relations between the gulf bibles massage default. and most of the rooms filed in the fall and also made the invitation during the 1st high level visit to to have fun. in 7 years for saturdays are planning to reopen the embassy and every new capital the videos reopened. very obviously in re i'd earlier this month, august on is planning to build the world's largest riverfront city, enough to accommodate 15000000 people, but wide scripts of what it about forced evictions and environmental flats. so i'm a bunch of ads, reports from the, for the likelihood of millions of people in the hard depends on these buffaloes. i think there has tended,

is heard on the banks of the for years. now he's among the farmers, strengthens with eviction to make way for the world's largest riverfront city by the general gordon. i have 5 acres of land for generations, but the government authority has taken me without my consent on a very low price. now want me evicted or should i take both my family and life stock human rights watch as since 2020. well then a 100 problem. is it being charged for resisting or refusing to find overland? it's always the government to stop intimidation, congressmen, and use a force. there are huge of a front of and development authority, our route to deny the accusations. it says the problem is that people have occupied the land for years, but don't legally own it. we're not disturbing any sacraments unless they have coming into the bank. so they wouldn't be the location of people who are in the bank because that's a part of the way i can sounds, the ending economy struggling to attract for an investment there. all the cities

spending more than $40000.00 heck to is, is expected to bring in $10000000000.00 through just as the development would provide high density purpose built housing and have ample green spaces. focus on has the highest rate of organizations in south asia. successive governments have failed to provide basic services, and the population is growing at almost 2 percent the yet. and there are no wastewater treatment plants, and almost 30000 liters of one treated sewage flows into the river every day. that combined with reduced water volumes up stream due to dams in india, have to meet the driver, a sledge carrier. the development authority says that it wants to create about a $1000.00 to $6.00 offer voss sewage which is dumped into the robbie. but they're not meant to this concern. they say the hum to benefit ratio is not valid. the state of focused on the government, the punjab is not a real estate developer. this of the people are focused on what this project going to do, that the government hasn't been able to do in the last 75 years,

even doubled the population of law hall using higher densities and only take a couple of 100 square kilometers to do so. you can do that, it just is about how you plan the city on how you design the city and who you're sending it to. and finding that balance between invest is looking for profit and providing basic services and affordable housing to a growing population. would be no easy task. so i'm going to drop it down to 0. la . ending authorities say they've started relaxing a car for you in the northeast instead of money, pull it off to $45.00 days of civil unrest. confrontations between the cookie and may take communities broke out again on friday. and the junior ministers house was set on fire tensions between the ethnic groups escalated last month. after a judge of recommended special status for the natives. more than a 100 people have been killed in the violence. so i think government protests are being held for a 7th a successive saturday inside the 10s of thousands rather than the capital bells rate and dollars. it is for the latest saturday against violence demos. protesters

are demanding the resignation of government ministers, blames for security losses to mass shootings which killed 18 people. passengers and crew. her being rescued from a burning faddie in the philippines. a 120 people were on board and the central province of ball hole when the coast guard was alerted. 31 people died in a similar 53 months ago. and it is like this on coming often because vessels are getting older. all the over crowded helicopter cruise and southern brazil are searching for 20 people still missing. following flooding, at least 11 people died following a tropical psych phone on friday. a line slide warning has been issued in rio grande. the sol saved governor says around 2 and a half files and people have been rescued in the last 2 days. okay, i want you to meet someone not. this isn't the start of another dyna blockbuster

from hollywood or japan. this is the goal kind of non noise. it's a new spaces of dyna score discovered intially in south america. and it's changing the way that scientists are thinking about have these creatures evolved? victoria gaping because more to life as to 72000000 years. scientists have been able to recreate this newly discovered species of dyna, so after finding it's fulfilling patagonia in southern chile when it, when it will repeat yourself before if possible. you can also reply to see like the sort of it's an evolutionary link to duct bills that has only been found in the northern hemisphere. so to find one here so far away from all the others of that type that with known, i mean is an important bio, geographical mystery is how the managed to survive the isolated in the south of the world. that's also a story the fossilized bones, if the con coke in natalie was 1st discovered 10 years ago during an expedition by the chilion and talked to institute such as dug out more than a 100 fragments,

which we used to digitally reconstruct. the skeleton scientist estimated, grew up to full, meet as long and weighed around a ton. the people are about to come home. if there was a herbivores dinosaur that could walk on 2 or 4 legs. but one of the main characteristics is that it had dozens of teeth forming a sort of dental battery for monday. this allowed them to process very efficiently . the plants with they fed on there was an animal that lived in her exactly with gregarious scientist. and now planning to make a 3 d print which is due to go on display in chile. so more people will be able to appreciate this snapshots of history. victoria gave some b, l, g 0. the, this is all just say that these are the top stories us that could be a state entity blinking is meeting china is following message and gang. and beijing is the 1st visit in 5 years.
