11:13 am
but choose the moment she was shot and i'm not to cut it and that's what i didn't think she would be shot that fast. i was just talking to i looked and found a laying here on the ground brain desk. she died from her injuries on wednesday, but so the classmates see through bones might never heal. her friends describe the popular and friendly girl, passionate about folk dancing, and theater, like her classmates should seen a lot of people here know that's life in the camp is always uncertain. they say she was killed in cold blood. how much we used to play in the very place where she was killed. we used to play hops cards here all the time. no memories of all they have left of her. so deal was buried here in the comp cemetery. it is where children often come to visit the grieves of their peers. walking in the cemetery,

the government wants to sell to the highest bidder. with an estimated $600000000000.00 up to 7 hours on the water, a chance to stock off on fuel and supply. we're a long way still from the oil sites. but i want to know what people here think about the potential exploration mandate to see a therapist or we have not had anything from the government. our life depends on the river. i think these will cause big problems. so we need an explanation. our newborn, obviously, as i passed, we will live in poverty. if this comes, it will help us to improve our lives. a divided opinion perhaps, but we were to find that sense of inadequate seats and indeed opposition to the books themselves would grow. once we got deeper into the forest, for now we set up camp, and i say it's a village as nice places in the. the clock houses here a democratic republic of congo held on saturday. and the clark brings us part 2 of

11:21 am
on the top stories on how to 0, a catastrophic implosion is being blamed for the deaths of 5 people aboard a deep sea submersible last seen as a dive down to the rest of the titanic. the tourist sub last contact on sundays, sparking of frantic search as it run out of oxygen for man has been extradited from thailand to face people, traffic, and charges and malaysia. police say they were linked to the discovery of the mass graves on the border between malaysia, 8 years of demonstrators, 11 on demanding access to their money in the latest protest outside the central bank. professors once in enter, restrictions on task controls and accountability for the long running financial crisis. for russia, as taking legal action against the australian government for stopping funds to build a new russian embassy, the russian government says it's already spent $8000000.00 on the projects in the capital camera. and when it fits, diplomats staying on the lands last week,
11:22 am
legislation terminating rushes tendency on lands and camera, citing a potential security risk the way and to supply that i, i the rest of would not be happy with, with our response. we expected that, but were very confident of the position and processes that are under wide for the coma to formalize possession of the site as well. so i'll speak to john blacks lend is a professor for international security and intelligence studies. i feel strongly a national university. she's in camera joining us from there. welcome to all 0, sir. so this issue over the rest of the lease is now subject to a high court challenge. how's that going to play out? i think russia's gonna lose. it's very clear that the, the strong and government has the legal love and they've just introduced new legislation that gives them the opportunity to completely of a ton the the court ruled. ready recently, side to the new president. but steve, but it's important. remember that russia actually already has an embassy presence
11:23 am
in australia, in camera. a couple of kilometers from this is the sort that the proposed that had been visited enormously in that. so i think doug and been built multiple stores flows on the ground and several above ground. they're not moving out from the old one. low. the original idea was that, that relocate to the new one to the plan clearly is to hold onto that old one. and have a 2nd premise in camera which given what we've seen in the last few years, the reversion to i called. ready type mindset in a soviet like a price towards espionage and barney debate. all right, hang on a 2nd, i'll take that away and let me just jump in there. and so, just on the point that you made a moment ago about, you seems to be confident that russia is going to, to lose. i wonder what you're basing that on. because australia is own federal court ruled last month, that the decision to revoke russia's lease by the government was quote, invalid and it had no effect. or yeah,
11:24 am
that's because the that had to introduce the legislation for this to be revised. so this new legislation of the times that ruling it. so it's the rod at the start and government and the starting problem to, to make its own laws. elizabeth tutton land. and that's what's gonna that's what's gonna transpire in the next few days. now we seeing this has bought a brushes playbook. they are very keen for this piece of real estate that will be very keen to of a ton the codes, the, the, the, the, the new piece of legislation. because this gibson, a very advantage is position when a strongly agree to them having this real estate in the decision was thought through. it's very close to parliament house. that's on a lot of side between the major telecommunication style and problem and house. it gives them an enormous advantage for age dropping for intelligence gathering. and given what we've seen in ukraine and the approach that russia is taken to relations a globally, that's just not acceptable in australia any longer. so i wrote about that. he's
11:25 am
right. moscow is accusing australia of, quote, russia, food, bank, hysteria. how do you think this diplomatic route is going to play out? it? will it continue to escalate? no, i don't think it's going to escalate. the russians have one of the people on the side of the strong and federal police are guarding the side. there's not planned to escalate on that, but the russians might, will try something. but the, the rest of the 5 year is just, it's a, it's a, it's woods midship, it's all of these. they're playing a game, they're trying to make the government look silly. but the only people looking silly out of they saw the russians. but the thing is, the fruit this to in 2008 so many, these have been long standing plans to build an embassy there by the rush since 2008. so why would australia decide now that having an embassy so close to parliament house is a national security risk? as i look at was a mistake to allow them to have it in the 1st place, but that had it since, but it's, it's now 2023 and i haven't built it yet,
11:26 am
but it's an eyesore that it says the sky and the landscape so so the idea that this is somewhere, but you talk about a $1000000.00 that that invested not that's being invested in the old site. i've got another thought, a couple of kilometers away. and they've been, that's now a lot for knox. it's a, it's a major modernized, fortified diplomatic bunker that is going to be retained by the russians. and they want that. and this b one to the original idea was that they would swap that right. just give one for the other. but that hasn't happened. and we've realized that the use instead of the original decision, that roster is not is not friendly rusher, is adversarial. it's a price to espionage. and barney defendants in australia is being recognized by the director general of security and australia as a major challenge. but, and that's contributed to the assessment from the department of time of phase of this needed to be returned. okay, so i was told that rolling were initially i do apologize,
11:27 am
but we've run out of time. thank you so much. john black's, when for speaking to us from camera. thank you. it's a good now india and the us have announced a series of weapons trade and immigration agreements. as the indian prime minister visited washington addressing the us congress in the remote. he said the bilateral ties will be a defining partnership of this century. speaking to reporters moody rejected accusations of promoting religious discrimination roles and jordan reports from capitol hill. welcome to survive is on thursday us president joe biden welcomed indian prime minister. never ends remote into the white house for joint press conference, and to strike deals on security. trade and immigration for us is eager to turn in to get into an ally that can help check china's influence in the endo pacific. today, the partnership between our countries is stronger than welcome to parameters of motors, washington to however,
11:28 am
critics say setting out the good china and crystal for moody is essentially rewarding him for violating his citizens. human rights. in 2002 riots broke out in the indian state of good to run. moody, chief minister of googe rod at the time was accused of stroking the violence he was later cleared. still, washington denied moody a visa to the us for nearly 10 years, reinstating it only after he was elected prime minister in 2014. all the human rights activists say, moody's government has either targeted or failed to protect most lives. 6 christians from religious based violence, allegations moody denied. i'm gonna say, yeah, and then we'll have always the truth that our democracy can deliver. and when i say dilute or does regardless of cost creed, religion or gender,
11:29 am
there's absolutely no space for discrimination. even so moody's invitation to address congress through objections from a few legislators including michigan rep rashida to lead. we urge all members of congress who professed to stand for human rights, freedom and democracy to join us and boycotting moody's joint address to congress chairs. the calls to ignore moody, largely brushed off by official washington, eager to keep india on its side in global affairs. russell and jordan elder, sarah washington, the scientists and mexico are blaming the el nino climate phenomenon for the 3rd heat wave of the year. hospitals are busy treating patients with heat related problems. some of them fateful and the electricity blackouts are increasing as on home and reports from the capital of mexico city. a heat wave is searing its way through mexico. one of the longest thing is officials say,
11:30 am
they're already been this. and the countries know is being hit, especially hard. my younger, i mean the grand deals tomorrow will also hit 42 or 43 degrees and it will continue as forecasted for 10 days to compare to the last 20 years. we haven't had such a long heat wave. this is why we're calling it a typical. it's even close the country's energy authority. to be sure, warning the mets cruise power grid is close to its capacity president under the is meant to a little piece of the door. so this is nothing to worry about. those are just some of those pretty metals. we'd be the 1st one to know what was happening if there were blackouts, but just imagine it's our responsibility that we don't lack electricity. so i said you are, there's no problem maintenance. okay. yep. i want the local media have already refuted blackouts in a handful of states. these people are protesting the lack of power and then neighborhood in the northern city of monterey. and it's not just people who are
