1:07 am
are not an effort to ease tensions. if we were going to make things much easier for ourselves that we would have done it prior to june when the president has 1st foreign trip or earlier this summer, despite whitehouse denials the travel requirement announcement appears deliberately time to ease tensions with allies. now the u. s president is armed with good news as he prepared to meet face to face with world leaders and address the un general assembly. kimberly held it al jazeera, the white house. ah, now 6 people have been killed and 28 others injured in a shooting university in russia. gunman has been detained, but his motive is not fair. and the baba has more running to safety perm university. students try to get whatever information they can as reports emerge,

if a man with a gun on campus others, clearly distress is police roy, this woman tells them there are people injured in there. they need an ambulance student said he and around 60 others spent more than an hour hiding in the lecture theatre. barricading themselves in with chairs and tables earlier, some students were seen jumping from 1st floor windows to escape. he started shooting when we were in the smoking area when we realized he was shooting at us. we started running inside like a herd of sheep. it tasted like a shepherd to the entrance. local media quickly identified the gunman as an 18 year old student. he posted a photo of himself on social media posing with
1:09 am
a rifle and ammunition, saying his actions were motivated by hatred, not religion or politics, lucius, but the anyway level ro stung over the suspect has been identified during his rest, he put up with distance and was wounded after which he was taken to a medical facility, the investigation team is collecting information on the suspect. it's been established, the suspect bought the smooth for hunting rifle, but he used in may the, according to the university and param, 1100 kilometers east of moscow. there were 3000 people on campus at the time. in may this year, a gunman opened fire at a school in the city of khazan, killing 7 students and 2 teachers. nadine bob al jazeera opponents of live in putin of accused the russian authorities of mass fraud. after the ruling party retained its super majority in parliament. further, consolidating his hold on power with most of the ballots counted, the central election commission says united russia won nearly 50 percent of the
1:10 am
votes. higher than exit. polls are predicted and only slightly down on the 54 percent. at 15 years ago, united russia expects to in more than 300 of the 450 seats in parliament known as the state duma. its nearest rival, the communist party, won around 19 percent of the vote. but most of the opposition was bought from running, but its smith reports now from the russian capital moscow. as the results came in across 11 time zones, it quickly became clear that rushes republics, territories, and regions had delivered the victory. vladimir putin expected. the pro kremlin united russia party has kept its 2 thirds majority in parliament, allowing it to change the constitution because the turner was more than $51.00, the same it, he's much more than 47 percent of the previous relation, but it shows that people take the whole nation of the highest representative agency of state power in the states humor. but the 3 day vote was plagued with claims vote
1:11 am
rigging such as ballot box stuffing, electronic voting and moscow seems to been particularly difficult to check. on a 100.4 percent of these results on the government's website show a 100.4 percent of those registered to cast their vote, which is not possible. it's something that impossible to trust, even if the elections would have been perfect since the beginning of the year we began, we experienced our huge crack down of a new life independent political life. we saw that failure moved, and while we had court last troll on our backs, that was evolving and the whole result now hung mckayla bonnam had been far ahead after the count of the manual votes. but last to united russia, once long delayed electronic votes were added, the bon, off standing with the communist had benefited from tactical voting. he was one of more than a 1000 candidates, identified by opposition activists as being best place to be united russia party
1:12 am
that the communist party has rejected the election results. usually what i say is a mathematician overnight, united russia results had been growing communists resulted in falling and to other parties. results haven't been changing. this is the main tool. the falsification is unacceptable in any country love calls before the ballot had suggested the frustration with a falling living standards and corruption would dent united russia support, but it was down only 4 percent on the previous elect. the election was widely seen at the vital part of blood, but to cement the grip on power ahead of the 2024 presidential election. the president hasn't said yet whether he'll stand as a candidate again, bernard smith, i'll just era moscow. now the 1st poles in canada snapped general election close within the our prime minister just intruder was hoping to consolidate his
1:13 am
leadership with a majority in parliament for his liberal party. he's facing stiff opposition though, from the conservative aaron oh, tool and an unexpectedly close race. it's got more in this now from jody vans is following the story from longtree all. how much of a struggle has this election been for the liberal party of john intruder? certainly more than he had expected. we imagine after the snap election, as you mentioned, was called on august the 15th mid. the 4th wave of this covered 19 pandemic. it is proven to be quite unpopular with many voters, at least that's what the polls are showing at. the hope of course was to win a majority here for the federal liberal leader. just introduce who will be on the stage at that podium at some point this evening either to make an acceptance speech or a concession speech or with the rest of us. perhaps wait for balance to be counted late into the night. we are unsure of what male in ballot might impact the counts
1:14 am
in our federal election here in canada, it is not a popular vote, it is 1st past the post. so various writings are key here. so it'll be a very interesting evening as the polls close across the country from east to west and, and we'll be updating as the night goes on. but certainly the media gathered here. there is a throng of media here, very much expecting that we will be working late into the night. pulls right now projecting a liberal minority, which is what the federal liberal leader had when he called the election on august the 15th. this is typically a very busy room on election night. it is typically filled with lots of people excited in signs, but in a covert 19 pandemic. it is expected that there will be we are told a few friends and family gathering in behind me here. and of course, as mentioned, the federal liberal leader will be making his speech from that podium. as he say, just intruder was seeking
1:15 am
a strong and mandate from this election. how weekend will he be if he doesn't get it? that is a great debate going on in canada, across canada right now. and actually it's not just just in judo who's in the position of should he win what he had, even a lesser minority government. does that put his leadership in jeopardy? that is also speculation on the conservative side of this coin as well with there are no tool if he is to win a minority government. is that strong enough? is that a confident enough position for the conservative government? there's a lot of play here in canada and the polls show that it is deadlocked, very difficult to call. and certainly with the pulls as mentioned closing within the hour here on the for the east coast of canada and then rolling across the country. we will be watching very closely as the counts come in clarity, vance and non trail. thank you. while the lead is coming together for
1:16 am
meetings at the general assembly, but a growing rift is still of shadowing. the event. speaking at a side event, french foreign minister says this country was blindsided by submarine deal amounts last week between the u. s. and australia. job we've done. it's not just about a brutal, unexpected and unexplained breach of the contract. the 2016 contract that was being implemented with strayer, what matters now is the breach of trust between partners and alliance means transparency and predictability. it requires explanations and involves talking to one another, not hiding from one another on matters of importance. that did not happen, and we need to talk about us. that's like hundreds of un and joins us now. obviously, the french still furious at this deal. what was the 4 minutes to have to say?
1:17 am
well, certainly, yes, french anger has not waned in the days since the announcement of that alliance, and this is reflected in the foreign minister using the word, brutal, brutal. he used it on a number of occasions to refer to the actions by the us in particular. he appears to blame predominantly for forging this alliance. he explained very clearly that for the french is not a matter of the contract. remembering of course, that bronze had contracted australia to provide a number of diesel pilots submarines. this contract has now been ripped away and the foreign minister saying they heard about this an hour before the formal announcement was made by the u. s. a straight yet. and britain so clearly absolutely furious, still about this event, arguing as well that it's not to be industrial issue of the contract, although that is bad enough. it's the breach of trust between traditional allies, which he goes on to say is something that all in europe now have to consider how
1:18 am
they are going to forge future alliances with the u. s. given the fact that on this particular issue, they have lost all trust and then so this has a lasting impact on us french relations. and as i said, that french anger at this alliance, not going anywhere. now might let me ask you about iran because have been these sort of ongoing behind the scenes efforts to try and resume negotiations between parties. the 2015 nuclear deal minus the united states. what did johnny say about this? well, this is very important issue, it's a meeting that is going to be taking part on the silence of the un general assembly, the joint comprehensive plan of action which was at 2016 deal signed with iran and a number of other partners. now that has been patiently essentially being on hold, but the foreign minister are drawn saying that he's hopeful that some kind of
1:19 am
momentum can be achieved at this particular meeting. he points out that there's a new iranian government in place. he'll be meeting a new iranian foreign minister at that particular meeting and he says that it is necessary now to get some kind of traction going to get some kind of momentum. he argues very strongly that he believes that iran is not in compliance in a number of ways with its initial agreement. he says, this remains a problem and until iran becomes fully compliant, then this is going to hinder any process towards achieving the resumption of a move back to restoring that 2016 treaty that was essentially shattered by president trump. then president trump, when he unilaterally pulled the us out of that agreement. the foreign minister didn't mention it, but you the lateral is something that he used in reference to the out casteel as well. thank you very much from the united nation and mike hannah will staying at
1:20 am
the united nations and the secretary general is that they've been encouraging signs from wild leaders of health for developing countries to deal with climate change. kristen salumi has more on that now. the, the un pulled out all the stops to highlight the urgency of climate change ahead of this year's general assembly, including an appearance and a new video by k pop sensation b t s. but the real work took place in an informal meeting hosted by the you case, prime minister boris johnson, along with the un secretary general antonio gutierrez. thank you very much. katie of sweden and denmark came through with new financial commitments, putting the international community closer to reaching the goal of $100000000000.00 in climate finance for developing countries. but the secretary general warned that funding alone won't be enough to keep climate change below. internationally agreed upon limits,
1:21 am
governments must chief subsidies away from fossil fuels and progressively phase ult . we'll use you fall plenty cool power plants become a professional. we will not only be clearly about 2 important 5 degrees will be well above 2 degrees. and the various targets will go up in smoke off camera. un officials will tell you that more funding from the united states and less reliance on cool buy china are crucial to meeting targets set out by the parents climate agreement. and so far, neither are guaranteed china and now the world's largest economy behind the united states uses more coal than any other country and has plans to build even more factories. what do you say to the developing world when you ask them about coal funding? is one thing, but to ask them to cut coal when countries like the united states in the united kingdom built their economies on fossil fuel. how do you convince them to do that? you can do it is what i say. you can transit away from, from coal and the,
1:22 am
the u. k. itself, i think in 201240 percent of our, our power came from ko. it's now g less than one percent. when i was a kid, it was 70 percent. and that's partly because of, of gas, but it's mainly because of the arrival of a clean green renewables. but the clock is ticking towards cop the next major climate conference scheduled in november. and without major commitments, many fear it will be the same old song and dance. kristen salumi al jazeera, the united nation. thousands of haitians who gathered under a texas bridge seeking refuge in the u. s. have been sent home, but many migrants still at the board and say they've suffered too much to return home. now. it's come as the white house criticize the use of horses by us or the gods that to threaten migrants trying to cross from mexico as seen in john holman's
1:23 am
report. he has been following the story from sir that aconia, which is on the mexican border with the us. mary. this is how one us border patrol officer receive patient migrant crossing the rio grande, coming back with food to camp. they've set up in texas. women. why is the the oh. 6 no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. i mean we've got our families inside dying of hunger. you've had to go out to buy the, you can see this one is getting back into the camp. so they went across the
1:24 am
street to get food. they said, because there isn't enough food for them to be there in the camp. there's more than $12000.00 migrants. mostly haitians in the kansas sprung up in the real texas over the last 2 weeks. they want asylum. the us authorities were overwhelmed. this is just the latest splash point in a month long surge of people illegally crossing the border. and there's little in the camp for them. that course i found the sanitary product was, there aren't any food there isn't any either. they don't give you anything. we met nicholas on the mexican bank of the river, searching for food and medicine for his family. he hadn't realized until we asked him about it. the us authorities are also now flying haitians back home. days, planes now going to people. what do you think about locking them up? what kills me about that is that everyone knows what we have are going through. there is no president, crime is high. students can't go to school. there is no work. the economy is down.
1:25 am
people can't put up with the port, taishan is not good for us. like many others, he said he suffered to get this foe on a journey through south america, past gangs, and through a patch of jungle called the daddy and gut notorious for rape. robbery too much for most of them so that it was really difficult. i saw a lot of us who died. he told me now he's touched ground in his promised land, the us. but it looks unlikely he'll be able to stay the in the rush with food. we didn't see him make it back across the river into texas. and by the afternoon, mexican security forces were patrolling the river to it was getting even tougher. mexican authorities have opened the dime further upstream, which i do quite regularly, but it will, it means is that these people are now struggling even more get across the waters a lot deeper here. it's just another obstacle in another danger. held them as they try and get into the united states john home and how does it? i couldn't ya. a regional affiliate of the on group. i feel as claim responsibility
