i'm all of our god, it's good to have you with us. us secretary of state anthony blinking has pushed sedans, warring parties to agree, a 72 hour cease fire that took effect at midnight local time. previous truce efforts have failed, but lincoln said the united states is urging both sides to comply with the agreements. food and water supplies in and around the capital hot, who are running low and fighting between the army and paramilitary forces had been spreading through residential areas. the city of hot, too, has become a battle ground bombings, gun fights and clashes have killed hundreds of wounded thousands as armed groups linked to 2 generals battle for the control of the streets

finding food, walter and fuel, as well as of the basics, is becoming increasingly difficult, awkward, for those left behind. roger power cuts, a common and communications are being disrupted. what do you already? i mean, why did i have you all had a law or had if he should look at it, the whole network is down so people cannot communicate through the internet and only calls work intermittently. the other 2 networks are also only working sporadically. marsha, that i'm for linda or to put he played hospitals are struggling with supplies and some of the injured a stranded unable to get medical help. and most of the hospitals, in case it is included to have been shut down, or people unable to access them in the 1st place and. and there are no services being provided at those and sent us a un convoy reached part suit done on the countries east coast. as the secretary

general said, they wouldn't abandon the country the violence must stop it. risks of catastrophic conflagration within sudan that within gulf the all region and beyond. i strongly condemned indiscriminate bombardment of civilian areas including oscar facilities. countries are scrambling to evacuate their citizens, mainly by air. but for the many sudanese living under fire, they can only head for buses in the hope of finding safety. joining me now from leads in the u. k. is muhammad elder m. a sudanese researcher and political and economic sociology at the university of cambridge. welcome to d w. now the u. s. mediated c i a has taken effect. how is this truce different to

other fails these fire efforts over the last week? well, i think the main difference is, is that the united states is mediating this effort. whereas the others were just sort of announced, but it's still unclear to us whether or not this truce will hold. the truces have been very difficult to hold, especially because it seems that on both party on both sides. but also, especially in the are a sense that doesn't seem to be a kind of stable chain of command where these kinds of truces seem to hold. and where people were hopeful that there would be a truce that would hold during 8, which is you know, holy time for many of the muslims that live in that incident. it was during ramadan and none of them have held so far. it's unclear whether this one will as well. you've been in touch with people and so don, how are they coping well, it's been very difficult to be in touch with people in sit on particularly because, you know, communication hours have been destroyed. internet is it's intermittent. the

infrastructure is, has been completely destroyed and people are trying to do their very best to find safe haven. and so with those of us and sit down with just every time we do get, we do hear from the, our loved ones. we're very, we're very relieved, but we have so many loved ones on our hearts and never really at ease. now international diplomats and even agencies have been pulling out of the don. what does that mean for the sudanese civilians who are left there? well, it means what it sounds like. i mean, this is denise here. you know, i just, i just heard the secretary general say that the international community will not leave this in these people behind. but for most of us in these people, we feel that we've been left behind actually a long time ago. we were left behind the moment in which as the protesters were on the streets being killed by the 2 warring sights, were you know, when they weren't sure, they weren't planning their bullet, said each other, they were cleaning their bullets at their protesters. young people were dying,

seeing that they would not confer any legitimacy, any partnerships to the butchers these this military hunter. meanwhile, the international community didn't only sideline the democratic voices of the people in the ground, the resistance committees, the civil society organizations. they the, the, you know, even in this incentivized them from, from, from being engaged in the political process. and so a huge part of what's going on right now, what's transpired, it is related to the political elite. it's related to these her effect militias and this horrific general. but a part of that blame also lies in the international community who are being evacuated now. yeah, a very difficult situation there for people in a so don, mohammad and i am. thank you very much for joining us. thank you. let's have

a look now at some other stories making use around the world. rescue operations are underway following an attack on a counter terrorism police station in pakistan which left at least 12 people dead and more than 50 injured to bloss, ripped, through the building in a northwestern town, causing it to collapse. if the latest in a string of attacks targeting police in pakistan for a 2nd week, republican legislators in the us state of montana have forbid transgender colleague . from speaking on the house floor, democrat lawmaker zoe zipper has been blocked from debate on a bill banning gender affirming care service supporters demanded she be allowed to speak, but were escorted out by police for interrupting the proceedings. european leaders meeting at a north sea summit have approved a plan to ramp up wind power. they want to boost their capacity of offshore wind

for this legal of women don't believe that we are just sitting on wiping. the whole workers is going to hold work. as i often was the legal lou ridge toward practical work where we finish, the joint procurement plan is part of a multi track. you deal to get 1000000 artillery shells and missiles to cream within the next here. track one of the plan is to reimburse 1000000000 euros to e u countries for sending munitions to ukraine from their existing stock track to involves increasing the production of ammunition to match ukraine's needs. many if you government agree to buy the munitions from firms within the block, as well as from none e. u. member norway. but fans with a substantial arms industry of its own has insisted production should take place only within the european union, ukraine and had stormed just allies insist that decision should not be delayed by

bureaucratic disputes. i understand those who want to see ah, european military industry flourishing. indeed we need that. but if we delay, currently, ukrainians might not push as far and as successfully as they could with our services. therefore, speed is the main factor, but we should be looking for no, for ukraine, any delay in the decision of weapons delivery means less chance of recapturing occupied territory and more of its soldiers losing their lives on the front lines. russian foreign minister segment leverage has faced a storm of criticism at the u. n. over the invasion of ukraine. lever of lead a meeting on cycled effective multilateralism as russia assume the security council's rotating presidency. western ambassadors accused moscow of committing atrocities in ukraine and of trampling on the un charter international

cooperation of all things. the very fact that the russian foreign minister survey leverage has put this topic on the agenda it seen by western states as a provocation. russia's invasion of ukraine violates the un charter. this little blue book is written in plain language. and as we sit here, that aggression continues. as we sit here, russian forces continue to kill and injure civilians. as we sit here, russian forces are destroying ukraine's critical infrastructure. laughter of said the events in ukraine cannot be seen in isolation from geopolitical developments. he says that nato has been threatening russia's security for years now. she wouldn't simple yet. this is not just about ukraine. this is about how international relations will be shaped in the future. whether we reach a solid consensus in which all interests are taken into account,

or whether washington supremacy is aggressively advanced. virginia, you more, you. the europeans put on a demonstrative display of unity. their message, russia must withdraw its troops immediately and unconditionally. by organizing this debate, russia is trying to portray itself as a defender of the un charter and multilateralism. nothing can be further from the truth. it's cynical confrontation instead of co operation. there is no sign of the 2 sides moving any closer together. in this security council meeting grand prix motorcycle racing. better known as moto g, p is the premier class of motorcycle road, racing it's popularity is enormous with race is taking place around the world. but somehow there is never been a black racer in the sport. one young south african has the dream of changing that 14 year old or a tail way. pity has one goal in mind to one day be the 1st black person to race in
