lincoln was also set to reaffirm washington support for a 2 state solution, albeit without proposing any new initiatives. correspondent rebecca ritters is in jerusalem with more. rebecca, what came out of today's meeting with the palestinian president? well, tell me the news is still coming out her. the statements are coming out as we speak her. a was largely as we expected, the meeting to go. we knew that, but blinkin was here to call for calm that something that he has done, he's reiterated his is calls to deescalate the rising tensions of really the last year. but also that the were peaking in the last few days that something that he did discuss with the palestinian president mahmoud abbas. he showed salad solidarity with the plight of the palestinians reiterating at what he said after the meeting with benjamin netanyahu. here in jerusalem yesterday that the u. s.

opposed any action by either side that makes a 2 state solution more difficult. he gave his condolences to the palestinian president and of the palestinian paypal for the lives lost or over the last 12 months. let's not forget that this comes at a time of high tensions. obviously, we've seen the recent high tensions over the weekend, but this year alone, more than 30 palestinians, have been killed last year with the deadliest in many years in recent history. with more than a $150.00 pounds indians killed. so he gave his condolences for that some, a more concrete things, $50000000.00, an extra $50000000.00 was announced for on route that the refugee agency for the palestinians. and he said that agreement had been made to roll out of for g network across the west bank. that something that was started during the biden visit here last summer. that it has taken one step further. the palestinian no doubt great for

math when a bus saying you really thanks all the efforts of the americans any welcomes antony blinking to the west bank. but i, we know washington has historically had a firm commitment to israel. so where does that leave the palestinians? what as you say, that has been a long standing 75 years special relationship between israel and the us. so that is absolutely no surprise to the palestinians. and i don't think they expect that to change any time. soon after his meeting with benjamin bet netanyahu blinking spoke of the enduring relationship of the us and israel. but despite that, the 2 administrations israel and the current biden administration in the u. s. don't see i to i and the u. s. are nervous, but that doesn't really make any difference to the palestinians and their view of the relationship, of course for from the palace bit palestinian perspective, they're probably just quite happy that the relationship their relationship with us

is strengthening given how much it's soured under the trump administration, but all in all, you know, they didn't have huge expectations of this meeting and i think they were actually quite happy with how it went to don't use rebecca written in jerusalem. thank you for that update. at least a 100 people are confirmed dead after a suicide bombing at a mosque in the pakistani city of the shower. rescuers are still searching the rubble, but hope of finding more survivors is fading. many of the victims were members of the security forces from a police compound surrounding the mosque. now while pakistani taliban commander initially claimed responsibility for the attack, a spokesman for the group has backed away from the claim that they were involved with the hope of finding more a survivor is, is fading. yet rescuer is continue to search the rebel in the desperate hope that loved ones will still be famed alive. i came were

searching for a friend, son who has been missing since yesterday. his phone is switch off to search for him in the hospital, so we have all the hospitals, but we haven't heard anything and we can't find him about medical complex. maybe i dozens are injured. and in critical condition, prime minister shabbas sharif, visited those fighting for their lives in hospital after he condemned the attack. security and for shot wire is no noticeably tighter for residence, grief mangles with apprehension. as it remains unclear, who is responsible for the blast work, you're sure you don't get off of work. you're sure. it's a huge concern for us. that bombers can enter masks, so many people dead. they were beautiful people, people's children, people's father. so it is a matter of great condemnation. the terrorists can enter a government department law if they don't even have security. what safety can they

provide us of either of them are probably there was a lot of others as families and loved ones pray for a miracle. authorities are anxious to determine who would have carried out an attack that even the taliban refuses to justify. let's take a look at some of the stories making headlines around the world. us defense secretary lloyd austin said washington would boost security cooperation with south korea as he met with his counterpart in sol, austin also promised that the u. s. would deploy more advanced weaponry to the korean peninsula. i made rise and concern of north korea's weapons testing program . nasal chief, yes, sultan berg and japanese prime minister for me. ok. shita have promised to boost ties. the parents said they were concerned by the growing threat to global security posed by russia and china as they met in tokyo. japan is not a natal member, but corporates,

closely with the alliance. u. s. president joe biden has ruled out sending f 16 fighter jets to ukraine is going debate among western allies about delivering warplanes the kid. ukraine has been seeking modern jets to replace its soviet built air force since the war began. a bela rose and russia have announced a week long training program for officers in charge of their joint military grouping in belarus. moscow's troops invaded ukraine across the balloon. the border last february, ukraine says the threat of a renewed russian offensive is currently low, but they're doing everything they can to make sure it stays that way. as a correspondent, max and out reports somewhere close to the bell. erosion border under the cover of pine trees ukrainian border guards are reinforcing their positions. i'm going to say that it is not a new pittsville. these trenches are designed to protect the lives of the people in

the military. e, as well as to provide defense, mobile id of wellness, the one need to set them. so if the enemy attacks from the nearest road, if sure, our infantry will respond. i was just that i'm a little you let us know that i am would empty quoting. he won't go into detail about their preparations and won't even confirm that these trenches are new, that others, but you can smell sawdust and the boards seemed dry and clean. in the distance, we hear trees being felt broadly above it, or their messages. russians won't get past them a 2nd time to live with this bridge used to join ukraine and bela bruce. the defenders blew it up to try to stop the 1st rush in advance. now they are looking across the river again, right now, the situation here seems calm, but soldiers here prepared for this to change at any moment. the worries are that

the russians could push through here again in the 2nd attempt to take keith with freshly mobilized troops and lessons that they learned from last time. it's places like these that the russians moved through before. the settlement south of the border where the fighting was fierce, i feel had lives changed forever. alexander lived here with his wife young mother and stepfather. he wants to show us the damage to his property. took me lemeu with a regular citizens were shelled with mortars in a me. the russian artillery was firing at the farm thumb and our tanks fired back at them. largely but the artillery and tank shells didn't hit our house, but the mortars did look to be mimi. a wall came down on his mother emilia when they double philip dilemma. this is where my mother's grave was me to speak up, ali visibly mc lucy alexander buried her here in his guard. only after

the russians retreated, could he move her to a cemetery? and yet, alexander doesn't want to be of was rochelle new. thee, i believe that people have experienced such horror that it is difficult for me to add anything. yeah, you have to live, we want to live open and panic. so there's no sense in panicking yet. when you where to run could that we have nowhere to run to liberty. we'll see what happens. i shall go live above him. most of those who are still here, feel like him. further down the road, it yohina runs. a shop at her house was also damaged in the fighting. it's, i don't even know. i don't want to go anywhere. and at the moment we're not able to . it's very scary for children and i'm very worried. every one we met, you can talk about pain and loss, but it seems courage and determination run just as da da da da

correspondence. sonya veronica is joining me now from keith. i sonia, how is this threat of a rush at offensive from biller was in territory being felt in the ukrainian capital? well, the persistent concerns here about bella versus continuing in particular logistics support to russia's waterford not officials here say that, you know, russia has been using bell russian air space and air fields and it's war effort. it's been building up military bases. there. it's been moving its troops by real. and you know, what we have to remember is that even the take off of a single russian jet capable of carrying a missile from bella. luce normally triggers an area across ukraine, forcing civilians to seek bomb shelters. we had that case just this morning in came we've actually had 3 areas alarms today, and at least one of them was triggered by reports of russian aircraft taking off

from a bell russian airfield. and of course, all this is also been worrying for the small bell, russian discipline community in ukraine. many of them fled to ukraine after the crackdown on protests against the election of president lucas shanker. in 2020, and below. bruce's involvement in this war has put many of them in quite a difficult situation. we can take a look at the report high. oh, glory to you creed, long lives better loose dissidence and even fighters, the ukrainian army, commemorate federal bell russians who have died fighting for keith organizers, see, it's the 1st rally bell russian exiles in ukraine. since russia's invasion, just months earlier, alice me now had fled to you cream, to avoid prison for his activism. he said a warm welcome don't, frosty after moscow used belo russian territory to launch its invasion as rosamille

. it's a woman along the attitude has changed all, but i get it, but his last little must buckle the ukrainian security service came to my place or to check the apartment my phone little and we had a talk for now, but it was politely mom and bella luce, some people come and masks and with weapons, and that's the end. would they or moscow? if i'm this boy officer? sure on this says he can work freely, but he's working alone. and on a shoestring, he says, feels the bellows might again help russia attack. make people ho wary of him. it's a feeling familiar to irina. another young been a russian who fled to ukraine. they bought miss home, but starting to feel settled here. with some younger chuck winnie me at the beginning of the war. i was really scared, especially because of my last name, which is lucas shanker national helpers watch. i was scared to even say it or to

show my documents. to say that i'm from bella. ruth, ruth, or spanish again. i don't know what's worse when there's a war and missiles can rain down on you, or someone can come to your home at any moment and send you to jail. to walk. elena says she's applied for asylum and ukraine. but as a bell, russian still can't open the bank account. here, she's volunteering for the war effort and is determined to city again in the highest i'm inspired by ukraine, how they're organizing, how they're volunteering, how they're working together. i would love to see the same thing and bellows my property at the rally i. this is even as a reporter, he has to take a stance. he and i were to latisha there below. when i came here, i asked myself, should i take the belushi and flag with me store? i decided yes, higher than you with this journalistic ethics don't allow it to leave the child.

but on the other hand brush, it's a time when even journalist should take a position. so to hold of that is that show which side there on. so was that a sticky touch? so this is our common war against our common enemy. and so with their support in there right now for supporting our water, her we're still joined by sonya veronica in cuba. so now can you tell us more about why these bill origins are opting to stay in ukraine despite the threat of war? well, i think for many of them, you know, opting to stay here in ukraine. is it? you know, i think many of them identify with ukraine's fight against russian aggression and domination. i think staying on in ukraine and supporting this country, is away from many to disassociate themselves from lucas ankles regime and show the world that not all been russians the bottom. now i also met a few soldiers. a few been russian soldiers were actually volunteers. the been given military training and they have now form their own battalion within the

official. you're create an army and the serving on the front lines. i met a few soldiers. one are currently serving in buck move in the east on don't yet probably this, which is a major flash point in this war. so i think that on a variety of reasons. but i think the main reason is really identification with ukraine in this fight against russia. did up the correspondence on yeah, father car in keith, thank you. ah, lack of political stability in libya has led to the growth of humans smuggling, making libya, one of the most important starting points for migrants trying to reach europe of a route to europe via the libyan coast is known as the central mediterranean route, with travelers. most often trying to reach the italian island of land producer, a fellow each member malta, or the european union registered 802005 100 irregular crossings at its external border by the central mediterranean route in 2022. that's an increase over 50

percent from the previous year. the un missing migrants report reports that $1377.00 migrants died or went missing, attempting the crossing last year. visible scars of a traumatic escape. 19 year old mohammed is stranded on the coast of libya. his journey began 2 years ago when he left his home in ivory coast. a place where he saw no opportunities. real kwanisha did direct the living conditions. there were very difficult more. he forgot that i had to drop out of school for then i went looking for work to support my family because she put down for me, i'll call you. he came to libya via molly and algeria, his goal to cross over to europe. but while on route violence erupted between the human traffickers and the libyan coast guard, with mohammed in between, he was shot in the leg, the coast guard, then put him into

a camp for migrants. when she got down, they insulted us, beat us another boy. we had no rights at all. we were hungry and thirsty for the way they treated us with catastrophic. her duster of survival and libya is a struggle for many of the roughly 700000 migrants here. only one and 7 ha entered the country legally, their destinations very mildly. some want to go to europe. others want to work as day laborers in the oil rich country, where they can earn more than at home. the competition is stiff. image geller gum was, well, there's not a warrant for every one, thousands are coming from the year alone, and every one is desperately seeking work in the libyan government. and the capital tripling is calling on europe to take more responsibility. libby as often just a transit country, it once you're up to invest more in the migrants, countries of origin. people are hungry, they wanna go and eat. and this is

a so what our standard to solution, that's what we can do, and this is not a problem of libya or needle italy or martha. it's that combined. and i think also germany has as a big, big role germany, europe mohammed has given up his dream, he now plans to return to ivory coast via an un repatriation program. java, mom, mom when i know to my mother and she said come home boy and my dear mother demila denise. mohammed wants to return home gratefully. after all he has survived. now his greatest wish is to one day be able to walk properly again. when i joined from tripoli, libya by federico, soda, head of mission, all international organization for migration as the i o. m, which is part of the united nation system. welcome to d. w. news. now we know libya has become

a major hub for migrants trying to reach europe by the mediterranean. what are the main problems these people face? well, you know, the, as been mentioned in the report there, we continue to have a very difficult security situation in the country. the work conditions are generally far from acceptable and basically, you know, we don't have, you know, a functioning state in terms of law and order safety and even basic safeguards for people. so we have very, very high vulnerabilities and risks. criminality is, is rampant. and that includes the smugglers and traffickers that facilitate the movement of these people. so you know, between the violence and the criminality. it can be

a very dangerous place. emotional discrimination, see what's being done to, to fight it. well there's, there are a lot of efforts to, to reduce actually the problem before it reaches libby in the bar in the neighboring countries. it's quite difficult in, in libya to work on these issues right now, because while there's an absence of conflict with a c fire that's been partially holding for some time now we still don't have unified government and, and, you know, a single national authority. so obviously con batting, very difficult issues like organized crime is incredibly complicated in a context where in a lot of areas, law and order is, is totally absent. is there

a chance that some of these migrants could find regular work in libya? yes, of course. in fact, according to one's own data, about 75 percent of the migrants are employed. now that type of them type of employment very greatly. i am, i'm sure that if there were a higher, higher degree of safety and some decent work in the country, more would, would choose to stay. moving on for many of them is simply kind of the next step in, in a search for something better as was described in your introduction. not all people that come to libya and tend to leave through the central mediterranean. but when things get difficult and with very few choices at home,

moving on is easier than turning back the work needs to be done here on the stabilisation of the countries on bringing law and order and security. and basically on making sure that the migrants that libya need, because it has an economy that is very much dependent on poor labor, have the possibility to stay and work here in a safe and dignified way. and of course, with the fragile situation right now, that's just not possible and it hasn't been possible for many years. so this problem is pastored federico from the international organization for migration and libya. thank you. thank you very much. let's take a look now at some other stories making headlines around the world. a new wave of strikes and protests are hitting france as opposition to the government. planned pension reforms continues public transport,
