have been killed this weekend with hundreds more wounded. the clashes much of them in and around the capitol heart tomb followed months of heightened tensions that have delayed sedans. long anticipated transition to democracy. jets roaring overhead tanks on the streets, gunfire and smoke all around. sedans, army and a powerful paramilitary force have turned their guns on each other. just months after signing a deal to restore the country to civilian rule. even in 2021. the 2 sides, sedans, army and the rapids support forces, or r as f joined forces to seize power from civilian prime minister, abdullah. hm. doc, an uneasy era of power sharing began. as army chief general abdel, fata albert hung became sedans de facto ruler, the while general mohammed hummed on the gallow better known as him. ettie kept

control of the oris. f military rule was met with frequent protests. as sedans, economic woes worsened international aid, dried up, and fuel and food became scarce. activists marched almost every week and cartoon to demand a return to civilian rule and a restructuring of the military. the large and not good massage was, we're out today to mean state the civilian country. we are calling very clearly for the military to return to the barret obvious f to be disbanded by the end of 2022 ha, metty. and albert han signed a deal with sedans, main pro democracy group, to establish a civilian lead, transitional government. but the 2 generals couldn't agree on a timeline for a merger of their forces and negotiations sold. it was another blow for pro

democracy advocates. would probably need the alber hand in hand. metty are fighting over power in this and we are fighting for food and drink just that they are fighting over authority and looting the country. and people with diplomacy at a dead end, confrontation became more likely just days before the violence broke out. the army issued a rare public warning that the r s f was illegally mobilizing its forces around the country. r s f and army forces. now blame each other for starting the conflict. and both say they won't back down. earlier we crossed a hard tune to speak to christina ross, who works for the freakish aber foundation, a think tank there. she gave us an update on the situation on day 2 of the fighting . a salary seems to be used to. we hear a some low grumbling sounds and then sharper

a 3rd are machine gun fire. they will fight to just overhead again. at least one internet provider seems to have caught the service. and people are also starting to get a bit nervous over the supply of drinking water and food. in many areas shops, i closed it also getting really hot here with more than 40 degrees celsius. so civilians having to shelter insight with no power to turn on a fan or open a window for fear of catching a stray bullet to really, really bad situation for many in this mega city. and that doesn't seem to be much awareness on the side of the warring parties over the situation of the civilians who can help with this into context for us. a little bit, this fighting broke out after rising tensions, including over how to integrate the r s f into the military. what do you think needs to happen to see this disagreement settled? well, one united army is indeed a key civilian demand for

a potential future. civilian governments, or you may know that in the past few months, there was a lot of hope for, for this final agreement between the military and the civilians to happen. and the military handing back the power to the civilians are the key issue of forming one united army, of course, would also include that or sorry for that the research militia was that the r s. f militia was integrated into this army, which of course, is not in the interest of the r f. they wanted to make this a tenure also process. the military push one or 2 potential talks may circle around those topics and reach a compromise to kind of diffuse tensions around. these are these issues, but this is not the immediate concern anymore. of the immediate concern is that both leaders are really am talk now and that their rhetoric has become hard line

since yesterday. both of us have maximum goals for the outcome of this power play and it would be really hot de escalate from here and to get them to a point where they may be able to talk i to i on issues. so this doesn't sound good for students, long hoped, transition to democracy in, in efforts to de escalate the situation. how useful do you think international diplomatic pressure could be here? well, it's certainly a central instrument, although the pressure must go way up. i think the combined international also, the national pressure needs to reach a certain critical mass mass. we already had quite a lot of heavy weights are punishing statements yesterday, having their se butting hats together. but it obviously has not brought the results. so raising awareness of the plaintiff,

the civilians and of the will of the civilians, they simply do not want to military government anymore. they do not want things to happen as they are happening outside. they want democracy and the free society. and i think there needs to be a lot more messaging on this until the situation can calm down or we'll come down. thank you so much for drawing our attention to those elements of the conflict that is christine wars. country representative for a student with the fish ever shift and thank you so much. orthodox christians around the world are celebrating easter sunday. the most important holiday in their calendar orthodox churches for the julian calendar where easter falls at a different time than in the western tradition. vladimir putin marked orthodox easter at midnight mass in moscow. meanwhile, war raged on in ukraine with one russian missile making a direct hit on a church. behind all the pomp and ceremony, it's business. as usual, the russian president publicly joined easter prayers,
