is coming over our heads from russian positions and a new crane positions have been standing about how they were directly targeted as they were trying to sleep. we've seen some of the residents come out of the building with that possessions in suitcases by substantial safe anymore. what happens on that day is a will quite those coming regions across the lines and know that the level of destruction here proof just how fish the fighting has been. in recent weeks, this russian or felts monastery has been a place of pilgrimage for centuries. the can you is bracing for 3 days of antique government process when live and die right . the
12:01 pm
on the bulk of this, and i'll just say what life will. so coming up a setbacks of times, reform is probably ministerial candidates. the constitutional court suspends peter lived around wrath. as a member of par, 5 breaks out to the military base in russian control. crime am a local governor says about 2000 people have been to evacuate the us. so what your ends up in custody in north can we are officer legally crossteck the folder from the south. the beginning. can you whether opposition coalition is cooling for 3 days? the price against government plans to raise taxes. the cool follows other recent demonstrations over the soaring cost of living in new taxes, which used to take effect to the stats of this month. but of course, and directly hold to the implementation, pending for the legal proceedings assembly and also has cooled. his support is to
12:02 pm
hold counter approaches, testing so he joins us now from the capital, nairobi with more of this and casting these protests on growing mobile. can you tell us? yes, we are right now. it's an old position, strong holes in the c t. it's been very quiet of this moment. we have heard about some protests in different parts of the country, but in narrow b, it's been a bit quiet. we have gone to different areas. we know that. so some people, some people have decided to stay away. um, still have been close. this is a market area where people have decided to stay home and wait house, that situation now we've not had a or i haven't. we haven't had anything about right. allow dean got to open the show and uh, need. uh uh, we know that he has been calling uh,
12:03 pm
per testers to come out to the street. uh, we saw, you know, with pots and pans. a single lies um that, you know, the highest cost of living we also had from the french cruise attach leads as human rights organizations basically saying that just for needs to not use acceptance accepts is false. now we also know that the government forces i have been deployed in different areas, particularly hot sport areas that's uh where purchased normally i'll call we have also heard from diplomatic missions. they say they know you said issue. i say cement as saying that. 9 they hope that that, um, these politicians, as they hope that the politicians basically will be able to de escalate this
12:04 pm
tension. so right now it is very much seems that people are staying away and a good comfort. obviously, one of the driving forces of these process is the squeeze on people's cost of living. well, impact to protest to say these punk holly kikes, another financial problem is a having them. so lets people are very, very frustrated. and particularly the big issue right now is about this by nose ox that was of, we eventually passed as a days a 7. it's a who has gone to court to protest against some of the taxes that i'll be imposed on tax pay. as a for example, we talk i'm, we're talking about an income tax, you're talking about a few lovely i love you and also, um, uh, and also uh, visa housings levy which has just been introduced to people that seemed a very angry about that because they cannot afford to pay more costs is now the
12:05 pm
government, on the other hand, states that these taxes are important because a lot of government officials have been say that, well, there is no money. the government is struggling to balance its own of nonsense and balance. as you know, on the back end that you're talking about of a huge uh exxon loads that as well. so the government needs that money to balance things, but then we have a know, a lot of people here that we've talked to are saying that, well, the other things that can be done, for example, to have said government needs to reduce its own. 7 7 expect them to just have the government needs to deal with um, corruption and things like that. but right now there's a lot of for, for us, for our station. they know a lot of people are very angry. they're saying they kind of deal with more faxes carefully, many things. so that's covered. so
12:06 pm
a lot in all right. its design and our constitutional cool. it's a suspended, the leading candidate for prime ministers and m p. the quote says peter lived around rab violated election roles that would have bought him from running in a general election in may. the ruling does not affect his bid for the premier ship now, but it is c as a significant setback for peter and his progressive opposition party floor and sleep. is that the problem with that inbound call confines uh, he lived arrives, has 15 days to respond to the suspension. what does it mean? so the policy and his political career, that's why well he can still be nominated as 5 minutes. the candidates in fact that suspension does not spa him from being nominated as a candidate. but if the quote was root that is high, she has violated ty election most. then he could possibly be punished with a sign from politics. now that is going to take a while for the court to make its decision. so that was the domestic scene that
12:07 pm
played out in harlem and just a short while ago where he received papers from the constitutional court. and so he had to the parliament chambers, but he made a short speech where he said the country has changed since the may 14th election requiring a force to the election results, where protest overwhelmingly rejected from military parties. and he said that half the battle has already been one of the best. so full pizza to be prime minister is still ongoing. now at the moment, legislatures are still debating whether or not he can be nominated as part of this, the candidate and business because there is a parliamentary regulation that says that when emotion has been submitted and base has it cannot be re introduced in the same session. not that debate is still going on. we don't know if the boat is going to take place on wednesday. if it doesn't, it will be just the to the state. now it's a voting happens. it is very likely that the time may not get enough. first, it will be a repeat of what we saw last week. if that happens, peter has already said he is happy to step aside and met another candidate. the
12:08 pm
name of the a candidate would be from the allies, the pets hi policy, which is the 2nd largest party in parliament. and this is so that move forward the party that teach at least what at least have a chance to form a government employment. so given how much supports peter has commanded nationwide, are we likely to see sizable demonstrations many analysts that we've spoken to say that this is very likely and there are really 2 scenarios that would make nice demonstrations even more likely. one is that each i received a bad news from home, from home, it takes for a number of years from the constitutional court cell ready to complaints pending before the constitutional court. and the odyssey, not real, is, is a new coalition is formed. and this new coalition does not include move forward. this is also very unlikely because we've already had some sanitation that they are unlikely to vote for any candidate that comes from a coalition that includes me forward. why is this so much projection of reports
12:09 pm
that simply because it's seen as a very progressive party and it wants to introduce sleeping reforms in the political system in the military and also in the economy is talked about is finding many of these monopolies, but still have a lot to and many profitable industries in thailand. so these are very possible scenarios and if those to any of those scenarios happen, then many of pizza supports is very likely to take to the streets that could be mass demonstrations. if that happens, there's also a real chance that the minute you will get more involved, perhaps and cracking down and protest is maybe even re imposing marshall. that happens. and really we're going to be seeing a peer at a prolonged period of political instability per time. it sounds like this could be a turning point for time. everyone's slowly and bind cold. thank you. well, you know, i spoke with the cast it, but on the i is a full, i'm a foreign minister of thailand. he says peter suspension is widely seen as a political baffled between conservatives and progressive. some would likely lead to widespread demonstrations. the said that was being set up under the president
12:10 pm
constitution fully to support the conservative private use the candidates and to oppose any candidate for being from the refund. this appropriately side of the pipe politico spectrum, it was the side to the, to in the move, been 2 bucks a full set. the price, the kingdom of thailand, field and simple as a result of the election on the 14th of may. no, most all would had to clear up the newest majority. they came 1st, they had 14000000 votes, so it was the peoples mandate. and that indicates that the people i want to change because i think the people, the young people feel that they were being cheap if they want at the ballot box. but they were defeated. suddenly inside the apartment, a department is have democratic, have a thought repair in the

12:15 pm
to create a positive momentum ahead of the top 28 conferences you by nature this year congress. he says that will be the most important one to conferences, paris in 2015. know earlier this week present being held his own conference with high level chinese communist officials where he said that slicing climate change in pollution was of the utmost importance. you said the agent was mission to achieving called the neutrality by 2060, but it will not be dictated to by any foreign powers of outside is. and this is clearly a direct reference to the us. and john kerry, us has been critical of bathing physician to celebrate approvals, remove coal fired power plants in recent years, and aging has hit back at this thing that washington should focus on feeling its own time to play just the whole putting pressure on thinking. now another point of contention is that the aging does not quite believe that climate change would be a standalone issue for chinese officials. the issue of taiwan and national security
12:16 pm
is still cool issue which very much plays a central role between us and china. katrina, you all to 0. now the already intense relationship between the united states and north korea has become even more complicated and it is all incidents. a us soldier is now in north korea custody altar. we legally crossing the border from south korea and in the past few hours, north korea is kind of that. it's the latest missile tests. classical home has more from washington it's already been a tough few weeks and the relations between the us and north korea. for the 1st time since the eighty's, a us nuclear armed ballistic missiles submarine docked at a south korean port. and north korea launched 2 more missiles into the sea. and now a surprised defection. army private, 2nd class, travis king in the army for just over 2 years and without combat experience is believe to a voltage across the border separating the 2 countries and was taking it to north
12:17 pm
korea and custody. it's believed he was just released from a south korean prison uninstalled charges brought to the airport to be sent home to potentially face additional charges and likely be kicked out of the army. it seems who was this quarter to customs and then got away with a tour group headed to the border again, were culturally monitoring and investigating the situation and working to notify the soldiers next of kin and engaging to address a sense of it. in terms of my concerns i'm, i'm absolutely for most concerned about the welfare of our true north korean experts, believe the soldier will be tortured. it is very likely that he will be subjected to harsh treatment, especially since he's a member of the, of the us armed forces. so that the likelihood that he will be tortured, he will face psychological pressure. he will face
12:18 pm
a physical torture of the likelihood of that happening is very high. now the focus on how to get them back, they can use this as a bargaining chip and say, well, you know, if you want him back, you're gonna have to take more troops out of south korea or get rid of this nuclear, you know, consultative group, something like that because obviously they have the upper hand, we care about our men and women who served in the past. us administered agents have refused to take those steps for fear. it will encourage more americans being arrested, but they have done prisoner swaps scenarios. luckily, being considered in washington as they wait and wonder what is happening to their soldier who tried to get away. patty calling al jazeera washington. you're without . is there a still a have 3 was government deploy as the ministry is it provides from nationwide protests for the president to step down to us in china, whole climate tools,

12:23 pm
night of attacks described by the authorities in and around the desk. there was a truly massive they say that particularly targeted was critical infrastructure including oil and grain terminals. also they say mil at military facilities that the ukrainians are claiming that the defense is shut down, intercepted a total of $37.00 are the drones or missiles of different types, but that was out of a total of a $63.00 weapons that with that 5 mainly access, southern ukraine, so it is a relatively low into section right to the defenses would normally be, i mean, for a higher and deception than that. and that the tactics seems to be by russians to overwhelming defenses with these waves of drones, all 5, at the same time, this theory being that the most stuff you fire, the great to the percentage of things will get through which seems to have been what has happened in this particular case i need is the 2nd night. this is taking
12:24 pm
place. it does seem to be we're continuing reprisals for the attack on the coach bridge. and we are hearing about a certain amount of damage, especially getting into around the desk. the something that building is being damaged, especially by folding debris, apartment buildings, also some hotels with some injuries. this has been condemned by the president's office here in keep saying that in the weeks that's a rush of his pulled out of the black sea grain. do this show, it was according to ukraine, its attitude towards to, to watch food security by attacking, attacking such an important grain port as odessa, robust the venture in the south west, a strategic port of a desk. so what's the pitch like elsewhere in the country? and there are continuing reports of fighting all along the line of contact across the ukraine, especially in the south and the east of particular focus. and the tension in the east is around the area of coupon. skip. this is north of the city of leave and

it's hard to escape the blistering heat. people like sean crow, who lost his job and his apartment 6 weeks ago, make their way to cooling centers, to grab some water and relief getting hotter. it's getting a lot harder. so this, this day, remember here is really resourceful. i take advantage of it, their, their resources and try to get myself put together and you're going in a direction. so that's basically what i've been doing for the past month and a half or so because it gets really hard, it's hard to kind of get up on your feet, especially you don't have the car after 3 days of temperatures exceeded 43 degrees, the number of people seeking help is on the rise as our calls to emergency responders for heat stroke. our shelters very close to full about 99 percent capacity. but we operate with about a 100 beds in, in a reserves that we, that we can see. you know, a bed mass that we can put on the floor for emergencies and stuff like that. so we started doing that. we're not a complete capacity yet, but, but we're over 500,
