thank you for joining me. i m fredricka whitfield. ukraine s president, volodymyr zelenskyy, made a dramatic appearance in japan where he s holding crucial meetings with world leaders at the g7 summit. zelenskyy is pleading his case for continued support in the war with russia. ukraine depends heavily on support and weapons from the g7 leaders who released a statement saying this we reaffirm our unwavering support for ukraine for as long as it takes. president biden is expected to have a face-to-face with zelenskyy tomorrow, and in a significant win for ukraine, the u.s. has signaled it will now allow allies to send f-16 fighter jets to ukraine and support training its pilots. that s a major about-face for the biden administration. russia and ukraine are not the only thing on the agenda at the summit. western leaders are tackling ways to confront china s increasing military power and how to approach the growing impact of artificial intelligence. mark stewart is in hiroshima

And the elephants will often attack and kill the people they counter. More than one elephant today is dying from Human Activity and one person every two days
Oddly Villages Spring live, the darc makes it so much easier for elephants to surprise them along, electric fence lines, the River Bank kept visible to humans in the black by plastic trash ribbons. Thats a pretty eerie place. This kind of no Mans Land between where the elephants come from, a kind of national parks. And these farming fields, every. In the pitch black here a group of farmers trying to protect their land. And it feels bizarre to see this Frontline Mentality out here but used to fence the elephants into the forest. But new studies promote instead, fencing them out of the villages and farms still, sometimes they break through. And these men know what that is like a party still cant raise
