6:26 am
that will effectively vote angler miracles, kristian democrats out of office. they will metaphorically lick their wounds in opposition, but they also know that in the other house of parliament, they can really make difficulty for this particular government. so it's not all plain sailing for this new traffic light coalition as it's being co, which in all likelihood will be voted in to office in the next 10 days. also, turkey is soaring, cost of living as turned into anger on the streets, opposition, supporters of valued against president oder lines, new policy of sharp interest rate cuts. the turkish lawyer has lost all the carpets value this year, reaching out to all time low against the dollar. on wednesday, hundreds of st vendors are protesting in the indian capital new delhi. they want the government to pass laws to regulate their jobs and protect their rights to 0, as well as a parent and reports from the demonstration. close to the deli achievement as

6:30 am
still and identified. we don't know what these are could be, could not be. so they've been having this task force. now, this is just another part, bureaucratic step. they're moving it into a working group. so what that does is it sort of finalizes the chain of command. it also include includes members of the intelligence community, but able get them to the point where they can actually know who to report to and evolve more parts of the department of defense. ah, so it's more of a formalizing of the process. they're going to have a budget, they're going to involve the intelligence community as are now just, they're going to be the airborne object identification and management synchronization group. ah. part time for a quick check of the top stories here on al jazeera, at least 30 on refugees on migrants trying to reach britain. a drowned m english channel out near cali after their boat sank. is the worst exhaust on the crossing since the u. n's international organization for migration started keeping record 70 .
