8:04 am
a d p. p. by stopping permanently, the joint military exercises and the deployment of all kinds of strategic weapons which are leveled at the dpr k and around to the podium peninsula. let's go live out through rob mcbride, who joins us from fall. rob, what more do we know about this missile test? well, the south korean and us intelligence officials are still analyzing data from the launch. but it happened early tuesday that happened from an inland location. the last time north korea long, short range missiles from inland transpired that was nearly 2 weeks ago. it turned out that it was actually from a train, which is the 1st time they use such a launch technique. so clearly the north is still busy developing new types of missile technology, but they're still trying to analyze exactly what type of miss all this was. and whether it was in fact, a ballistic missile, which would,
8:05 am
of course be in contravention of un resolutions. but it landed in the sea separating the korean peninsula from japan. japanese authorities say that they suspect it was ballistic in nature, from the timing is very interesting. just a few days ago, qindzhong and fist to hell about the prospect of an into korean summit. right. so, so does that make the timing of this missile test? somewhat surprising to some it does seem to be at all with these overtures that we've had from the law says, as you said, that kimmy john saying that in relations may improve even to the point of holding a new into korean summit. but in a way, it would seem to be part of the same strategy of trying to keep up pressure on the south. and in particular, on the south korea is a president, moon j, and who is a liberal president. he has made the goal of resuming of restoring relations with
8:06 am
the north, really his mission in what he's now well into his final year and office. and he could well be replaced by a conservative president, which would make, make it a lot harder for the north to get concessions. so this is possibly a way of being a reminder to the south that the clock is ticking of keeping up pressure on the south. and also is the envoy pointed out that the united nations there is a feeling in the north that there is a double standard at work here that while the south is allowed to develop and test weapons, the north is always condemned and faces sanctions for that. and this is their way of expressing their opinion that they should be allowed to test weapons at the south us. i thank you for that update. they're all mcbride, live from salt. dozens of british soldiers are on standby to help a few shortage problems. the government says is working to ensure the supply issues a result of the days of long queues at petrol stations with many force to close army tanka drive. it was maybe deployed to deliver fuel if needed,

their time and funds to help them get through the pandemic. now, congress is set to vote on a controversial 4th withdrawal. it's been popular with moses, but economists want it could destroy the pension scheme, found inflation in human reports from santiago. so it was supposed to be an exception. a law passed to allow julians to dip into their pension savings just once to offset pandemic, hardships within a year later. 67 year old. and we know gutierrez, is hoping the congress will approve of force withdrawal of 10 percent of her remaining savings, which are now practically gone. and prophesy number 11. and if for, if it weren't for the pension, with the roles, i couldn't have paid the rent. and it's been my salvation after more than 40 years of working in the health sector, you mean it would be us retired, but you'd never know what she says, it's impossible to survive or 180 dollar

nail in there. coffin most orderly gillian, say they'd rather have money in their pocket to day, regardless of what it will mean for their pensions tomorrow. but there's another more immediate problem. having too much money in circulation is not always a good thing because it can provoke something that spark sphere in the hearts of everyone. that is installations. something that truly has been able to avoid, at least until now. but the coastal withdrawals from pension funds has contributed to a massive increase in consumption in this country of everything you can imagine from cars to knickknacks like this. and that has increased the inflation from 3 to 6 percent this year alone, or via some economic analysts believe upcoming election. so the reason why politicians are nevertheless contemplating yet another withdrawal doesn't make any sense from an economic point of view. a bad public policy. it doesn't make any sense from
8:28 am
a public policy point of view about having almost no retirement savings left. you mean a good deal as consoles herself by saying she couldn't have survived on her pension any way to see in human al jazeera santiago, the social networking giant instagram is putting your kids version of its popular app on hold. instagram is owned by facebook and us politicians and campaign is urged the company to drop its plans. instagram, kids critic, se facebook and instagram's primary focuses on physical appearance. and these platforms haven't done enough to protect children. josh collin, is executive director of fair play for kids. he welcomes instagram's decision because the company needs to do much more to keep kids safe. this was a platform where kids upload pictures of themselves, often pictures that have been altered in order to get their friends and other people to rate what they look like in those pictures. this is a, a platform that runs on fomo on fear of missing out that,
8:29 am
that where people cultivate their best lives. and in that weeds that people feeling bad about themselves when they see these curated lives online. there is no way to make that safer. 8, your goals or 9 year olds are appropriate for them. so really the safest instagram for children is no instagram at all. i think that there are already millions of kids on the adult version of instagram who have lied their way onto the platform who are not 13 and shouldn't be there. and what facebook needs to be doing is doing a much better job of closing those children's accounts. and of educating parents that instagram is really not a platform for under 13, and that they don't want those kids there. what we know from child development is that those kids who are already lying their way on to instagram those 1011 and 12 year olds, they're not going to want to be on a platform that they consider to be baby, a child's version of instagram. but real audience for this is going to be kids who don't yet have their, their own instagram accounts. so i don't buy that. this is about safety for 11 and
8:30 am
12 year olds. i think if it's the grand is really concerned about those 11 and 12 year old, they should be doing a heck of a lot more to keep them off than the adult version of instagram. and. and as i said, i believe creating a kids version of instagram is only going to create and book a whole new generation of users and won't do anything to keep the kids who are already on instagram safer. ah, this is al jazeera and these are the top stories. the u. s. federal government is facing another shut down by the end of the week. republicans in the senate have just blocked an emergency spending bill. congress has until friday to find a solution. the republican party has now become the party of default. the party that says america doesn't pay its debts. our country is staring down the barrel of to totally republican manufactured disasters.
