so to actually today's attack, came i the backdrop of a meeting where security officials, one meeting at the hotel that was attacked and the security officials were planning on how to combat. and there are sub myisha, so they're, they're president in. so miley has actually been having meetings with various security officials and the security officials have been meeting at to just see how best they can combat. they also bought militia, but something else that we need to note is that they'll shut. bob is highly decentralized. they are in their rural areas. initially they used to be in town like his, my was one of their main at talents, but they were kicked off in 2011. so they have been trying to and have more attacks to just they have put more pressure on their government and trying to take over the government. but, and the government has been holding its ground and i left the st. april at miss was

formed or with stroke over from the amazon africa union mission a peacekeeping mission. so there have been efforts bit by bit to see how they can be able to come by to belch above militia, but because of their decentralized nature, then the president is taking his time to ensure that once he's ah, he's dealt with our shabby to be a once in for all kind of thing, which is something that he also mentioned in the beginning of this month in exploring for us in nairobi. many thanks for that update. once again, russia is sounding the alarm to civilians living in the occupied region of her son . and cranium forces are advancing to the southern front to retake territory. the kremlin has been pushing civilians to leave the parts of harrison. it controls moving them to russia or other occupied areas. are removing civilians from their homes to enemy land is considered a war crime. elsewhere across ukraine, russia's attacks on infrastructure have caused blackouts and water shortages

the un. what city? some businesses refuse to let circumstances shut them down. this restaurant is staying open by candlelight and adjustment that dinars are trying to embrace as a sign of resilience with them. as a matter of fact, it toughened this up even more. there's been a power cut, but it helps our ukraine to save power. and apart from that, you can feel the mood. but it's very romantic with the booth at a monthly walkthrough walker on the front line say again, far from thoughts of romantic dinners, ukraine's defenders are trying to remain up beat. despite the constant shelling from russian lines, commander yuri compares the destruction to a famous siege from world war 2. like a stalingrad because li fell. may be 90 percent of build in sorrow. demolition. yeah. yeah. like starling allan gadri hathaway call them solid grad. but it is sola

dot i a few minutes down the road from so leader is the city of buck moot. which moscow has been trying to capture for months. analysts say it has no strategic value, but the ukranian defenders say the enemy keeps sending troops in droves. release them with al guys, we're fighting with them. their bodies are just lying there. $5100.00 per day, daniel. luckily, they didn't even take the bodies away along with them. i'll guys went to have a look and took a gun. some other news of it, i can give you a gun if you want. like the civilians whose lives and homes they are defending. ukraine's frontline soldiers are hanging on but at a devastating cost and a president, champagne has sealed a 3rd term as leader of the chinese communist party. he's now confirmed as china's most powerful ruler indicates. she's appointment wrapped up the week long party

congress in the great hall. the people constitutional changes cement. it is dominance. he also check up the party senior ranks promoting several allies. earlier i asked china specialist mary gallagher at the university of michigan. what she's consolidation of power is likely to mean well, it's definitely the case that he's completely centralized power around himself. he's promoted all of his people into the policy or a standing committee. so there are no actions anymore to balance against him. it seems to indicate that he will have a lot of latitude to promote the policies that he's been discussing. and it's really unprecedented in the last 2 decades. we haven't seen the centralization of power around a single person. they also want to talk about the situation for women in china. there will be no women in the poet bureau for the 1st time in 25 years. does that mark a step back when it comes to women's rights in china? i would say it does. i think there are also

a lot of other signs that we can point to that also show that women's rights and women's positions and politics are going to be on a downward trend. it's not, it isn't even just this. it's a bunch of things that have happened over the last several years. there's been more discrimination against women in the workplace after they lifted the one child policy. so that's very hard for women to advance professionally. we've seen crackdowns on feminist activists and we've seen and she didn't things own words putting much more emphasis on this idea that women have a special traditional role in the family. and why do you think we're seeing this return to more traditional conservative politics? i think the chinese communist party has always been quite conservative when it comes to gender equality. they have advanced gender equality. early on in the, in the 900 fifties women have never reach the pinnacle of power. and when they have like, during the culture about revolution, it was seen as

a very negative thing to have happened. so i don't, i don't think this is going to be a new trend but rather doubling down on something that has always been really strong in the communist party. but i think there is one important reason now and i think it's the economy. i think there and the demographics, so there is a slowing economy and the government will put more emphasis on male employment over female employment. plus they want to boost the birth rate. so not just seeing the child policy relax, we actually now see women being encouraged to have birds. and in fact, in some cases, being discouraged to have abortions. a reason we've seen women web protests around the world, for example, in russia and iran, just before i let you go, what do you think the chances are of seeing a similar kind of movement in china? well, she did thing before the concentration of power that we see in his 3rd term. he's been very deliberate and i think very smart in cracking down on all types of social activism. so we've seen labor, we've seen the media,

we've seen women crackdown on really since the very beginning of his term in 2012. so while women may try to express dissatisfaction and there are of course and several things that when that has happened, like punish why the tennis player who accused the top chinese leader a great you know, the crackdown has been quite effective at limiting those voices. i thank you so much for that update. as mary gallagher from the university of michigan. really appreciate your taking the time. thank you. i can bring you up to speed now with some of the other stories making news around the worlds. a russian fighter jet has crashed into a house in the siberian city of air quotes. both pilots were killed is the 2nd military plane to crash their homes in russia within a week. officials say the accident happened during a training exercise. in rome, mario druggie has formerly handed over power to georgia, maloney in a traditional bell ceremony. maloney is italy's 1st woman prime minister and its
