approved the $44000000000.00 deal to sell the company al jazeera. as gabriel elizondo rapport, style from new york. the deal is done the month long saga of who will own twitter appears over in one of the largest and most unusual tech acquisitions ever . the board of directors and twitter unanimously agreed to sell the social media company to even musk for $44000000000.00. up until the deal was announced, there was doubt on wall street. that musk could cobble together the financing needed, but he did. must help pay for the deal with $25500000000.00 in debt financing by a group of banks lead by morgan stanley. in a press release announcing the deal must talked about improving the platform by getting rid of automated spam accounts and making its algorithms open to the public and authenticating all users. but for musk buying twitter is about free speech,

or at least his version of it potentially ending twitters current content, moderation, or stopping the platforming of users to break the rules you on mosque is not buying twitter or financial reasons, although he thinks he can make some money on it, he's buying it for ideological reasons and i think that's the really important part and all this. and that's ultimately what's scary with musk in control. they fear a return to the unruly spread of disinformation on the platform. so as today, a good day or bad day for twitter users, that is probably the most important question here. and i think it's also the question that's going to be hardest to answer. i think that if he does a lot of the work that has been done trying to protect against sort of normative lead, bad speech, such as information and especially he speech that's going to be a bad day for twitter. but you know, there's

a chance that he takes over and doesn't sort of have quite a sweeping of a reform agenda as he said he's put forth in over the last couple it's tennis, tumultuous month for twitter. the saw must take a 9 percent stake in the company, making him its largest shareholder. he was then offered a seat on the board of directors, only to have it abruptly revoked, followed by his cash offer to buy the entire company all within the last few weeks . ultimately, elan must got what he wanted to not only be a twitter user, but to also be its owner. gave rosato al jazeera new york. the po has plenty of water from annual monsoon rains. rivers fed by melting glasses and the himalayas it every year. the capital cap on do suffers from a shortage by mouth. limbo went out to find out why every morning found, am i a booster?

collects water from these centuries old stone taps into a be got a suburb of cut man do once a week. water is also piped into her home, but it's barely enough for her family's needs. it ends in wild dollars a month on the line. so many people come here and wait in line to collect water. it's never empty. it's crowded in the mornings. some people come as early as 3 a. m. dana invited the hinterlands up across the road. women pay to use pont water to wash clothes. cut manned is rapidly growing. population is straining the cities already overwhelmed, municipal water system. most people have to buy water from tankers at high prices. the city relies on aquifers fed by monsoon rains. but as it expands and demand for water rises, they're running dry. one to his home to 4000000 people. the 15 is why 430000000 b to the water a day. less than half the demand is being supplied. residents,

hope vicious and long delayed milan water supply projects to pipe water from the river to the city will reduce demands. that project is run by the public utility k u k l that's now upgrading infrastructure to protect water supplies from the melancholy river. thought it up out to kill companies to distribute the abil able to water. you could. and without the minimum, without water leak is as easy as a network of got more, no valley or a more than a 100 years. so there is a lot of problem of the kids water leak is that is why are we out of the 15 from all nitro nunez without undergoing no organisations like smart bonnie, are also seeking solutions to the cities, water shortages that are very many pools in cassandra valley which are struggling to manage water and provide water to their kids. so that's why we work with public

schools, where there is a dire need of water and support them with an alternate source of water by harvesting that in what that is falling on their own rooftop, just filtering it and ensuring that it can be reused. unpredictable monsoon rains under rapidly growing city are clearly big challenges here, but many hopes that by conserving water, they'll at least start to reduce them from the other liberal al jazeera cut. my do . ok. it is good to have with us. hello adrian. so they get here and, oh, how the headlines and i was just un secretary general until the tennis is meeting washes foreign minister in moscow. ahead of talks with president, letting me of who's in attendance just hoping to open up the diplomatic.
