east side or south africa. wet weather, also pushing into mozambique in november 2020 austrian security services carried out operation lock. so if i opened my eyes and saw a machine gun pointed at my head, al jazeera well goes to vienna and grunts to examine events and allegations of his lam, a phobia. this is a terrible mistake because in effect from said 2 young families, austria operation luck, saw on al jazeera ah . ready sh 1000000 stranded by flooding in bangladesh and india where there's been

unusually heavy rainfall for this coming year. ah, at mccloud, mrs. al 0 life and also coming up. you as president joe biden, heads to japan. the next stop on an asian trip overshadowed by the threat of more north korean weapons test. new australian prime minister hunting alban easy is among the leaders. joe biden said to me to tokyo during the so called quad summit, plus businesses forced to close and market empty as inflation and drought combine to track down kenya's economy. ah. so heavy rains it brought to devastating flooding to india have now hit neighboring bangladesh. at least 57 people have died about 2000000 more stranded. the worst of it is in the south region where hunting has this update. this highway was one of

the only things that didn't flood here in northeastern bangladesh. heavy rains, combined with overflowing rivers. inundated this town, i want all my furniture is ruined. the entire house is under throat level. water goes off, up on a major embankment on the butter river, has also breached affecting at least a 100 villages. i've seen a huge flood in 2004, but this time it's even bigger, more serious, to be an estimated to 1000000 people are displaced with their homes damaged or destroyed in this farming community. men and women are trying to save the harvest. they have left drying their crops along highways. las vegas had got a new re, angie, buggy here. and they're very neat. i only managed to harvest one 3rd of my patty from underneath the water. the rest was washed away. it's been 2 weeks since there

was any sun. excessive rain has devastated whatever i manage to collect. i can't try this up. it's rotting on the polled. well, no than me. i don't know. i mean, many parts of bangladesh are prone to flooding with about a 5th of the country submerged every year. but climate scientists say our warming world is making it more unpredictable. the monsoon season hasn't even started yet. leah harding al jazeera now to india, where more than 800000 people were affected by the flooding there. but as poverty, metallic reports from the now gone district and many a refusing to leave her homes buried about well and up for like a blu ray. she the weird threw water several times a day to get essentials. his home has been flooded for days. he says he's tried getting help, but shelters are full, and his family is still waiting for government aid. it will put it in

a hurry bullet, put it on her. we are facing many difficulties. you can see for yourself. there's so much water. we have no way to get out. there's barely enough food. we had some rice at home, but now that's also over hundreds of thousands of other people have been displaced by floods caused by heavy rains. in a psalm state in india, northeast nego district is the hardest hit. more than 300000 people have been affected. the water here comes from a nearby river that overflowed and its rockfish that some villagers are catching to eat. despite the rising water levels, many people are choosing to stay back, waiting for the time to time, so they can stop rebuilding. many people are being evacuated rafts like these have been crossing flooded roads and feels to rescue people stranded for days. lots, any problem here we are facing many problem. some people in my family are not keeping well, and i asked them to come with me, but they didn't want to leave. they wanted to stay at home. and i said,

the military is using aircraft and boats to help distribute aid. last blood wasn't bothering for the c v one actually after that the people just talk about that blood as it a highest one on the severity of the flood is, has our class death flood on. so now though danger level of evil here is $59.00 point ones. it all army does, but it is the cross, the danger level it, which is now 60.39 meters. although water levels are slowly receding, people already the monsoon season will begin in a few weeks and the rains are usually heavy and caused flooding. pardon him at the arches, eda nego district in northeast india. now years president joe biden is in the air heading to japan from south korea, where he's worked hard to firm up security and economic ties. north korea was especially high on the gender, of course, after a series of missile launches this year, u. s. intelligence suggest that could be another imminent nuclear weapons test,

asked about the potential threats president biden said he would not be distracted. we are prepared for anything north korea does. we've had to put through how we respond to whatever they do. and so i'm not concerned suggest robert wright is study by and take a will go to him off to me 1st check in with from st. louis who's in. so and florence it before joe biden left southcourt, he visited a secure, underground facility didn't that's right now front and center of his trip to south korea was the issue of security and that's been made more pressing because of intelligence reports, but suggest north korean leader kim jong who may be preparing to conduct a 7th new care test or launch another intercontinental ballistic missile. so it was significant and really very symbolic that he chose as on his last day of that, his trip to south korea that he chose to visit an air force command center together

with south korean president units. so you'll, this, i think, is to highlight the strength of these 2 countries security alliance. and just a day before that, the 2 leaders had met at a summit. and they did agreed that they would expand that the scope of their combined to military exercises. they would enhance sanctions, they would look at possibly deploying more strategic weapons to the region to counter the threats from north korea. but it wasn't just about security. biden's trip was also just as much about economy and to this he had tailored his itinerary really very much for a domestic audience consumption back in the u. s. he took a samson computer chip plant as soon as he arrived in south korea. i'm his last day he met with hyundai moto group chairman, and these are companies that are investing billions to build facilities back in the u. s. so i think the message that biden wants to send is that his bringing jobs back to the u. s. he's working to ensure a supply chain resilience,

he's working to ensure that the u. s. maintains an edge in emerging technologies. and of course, and the overarching theme analysts say is that the u. s. wants to say that it is back in the region. it wants to send this message to friends and allies in the region and also to china that it is committed to the inner pacific region and it wants the country's yet to see it as a counterweight to china's rising influence or a foreign thanks to vote for hillary reporting merlots a move on to took care of the brightest on the by the and robert. so the main events will be the court leaders summit that's right, that's all leading up to that summit. but security will feature very strong be throughout this trip. i think this is as with south korea, this is meant to bolster, build a stronger alliance with the most important probably of the americas allies in the east asia at the time when you have this increase test nuclear testing from adult career, it's a way of showing that the united states stands with its allies. it also sends

a message to china, which is becoming increasingly assertive. it's something which is felt very keenly here in japan, in a number of different territorial disputes in the east china sea. i think it also with events in ukraine is meant to send a message to moscow that, you know, this is the united states leading this international community in isolating russia for its actions. the leading sanctions, a boy called sanctions, which are supported by japan. and in fact, the americans of praise japan full rallying other nations here in the asia pacific region in condemning what russia has been doing. so we can expect in the next couple of days, all of these themes to feature very prominently here in the center of tokyo sunday afternoon. the streets are very quiet, but there's a very heavy police presence here in the next couple of days. we can expect all sorts of motor cade's back and forth, of course, culminating in this quote meeting on tuesday. this summit of the, of this alliance of the united states, japan, australia, and india. again,

very much, very much directed at trying to can to china is growing diplomatic and military influence across the asia pacific region. or i'll leave it to me. thanks very much . the for that update to australia where the prime minister alights, entity, albany, is heading to tokyo shortly, offering swan. and he's promising to reset relations with the world and sweep side . what he says has be then ineffective australian response to climate change of what he says. labor party bonds, saturdays election, ending nearly 10 years. a conservative government, he's projected to secure a slim majority in policy. obviously, the quad latest meeting is an absolute priority for australia. and it is, it enables us to send a message to the world that way. there is a change of government, there will be some changes in policy, particularly with regard to climate change in our engagement with the world on those issues. and i look forward to the meetings that have been organized or let's

get a sense of the move for political change in sarah clark. it's been a seismic shift in australian politics. the people have spoken and the key issues at this election with climate change, gender equity, and the cost of living the coalition is out and labor will form a majority. government i think is amazing and amazing for australia and i think it's welcome change. it's been time for too long since at least the last election, previously safe, liberal states have been lost to a group of high profile. female candidates. i campaigned on climate change. now they want to push the government to reduce their emissions for the short term targets by 2030. yeah. lovely to say that the independence i think the real change and a step forward and for the environment. it's been the same. so now for the last have a long, and i feel like maybe now is a time for us to do something different. and if we can get actual climate change, then that's going to be quite exciting. this really elected government will hit the

ground running on monday, anthony albanese will be sworn in as the 31st prime minister before he bought the flight to head to tokyo for his 1st international meeting. as prime minister, our desert media network continues to demand a rapid, independent, and transparent investigation into the killing of its journalist and the occupied westpac. sharina barclay was shot in the head by israeli forces while she was on assignment and jeanine earlier this month. on the day of her funeral israeli forces storm the procession and started beating mourners, causing pull barrows to nearly drop her casket. that didn't stop thousands of palestinians from marching through occupied east jerusalem to take part in her funeral and burial. members of the international community have condemned to killing an calling for an investigation of workload was without 0 for 25 years, covering the story of the israeli occupation. she was known as the voice of palestine. i mean, you said afraid of what comes next. we hear from people in easton, ukraine,

eastern ukrainian towns, trying to shelter from russia's advance on several fronts and weaving magic a fabric fit for royalty that is being revived in bangladesh. discovery from rep long ah hell i will see the weather turning a little more mobile across europe over the next couple of days. bands of cloud and re pushing in from the west, driving further east or area of the high pressure which is kept things pretty settle and warm enough to that in the process of just getting nudged a little further eastwards. now we have seen extreme heat, severe heat wave into spain recently this area of low pressure will help to bring more cloud in and bring some shout in. the temperatures falling off. and this area of a low pressure will at one was responsible for

a tornado. in germany that made its way through on friday, and you can see the impact of the storm ripping down some branches. lots of leaves whipping for you that st. there. and it did cause a little bit of chaos and certainly fairbetter of traffic disruption. the wet to weather the windy weather that's now pulling out of the way cloud and rice sliding across the baltic. states rolling average was at western side of russia. clear skies come back in behind. you can see this line of showers there just around the alps into central and southern parts of france, pushing down into west spain, on the temperature, getting up into the forty's here. so it does cool off somewhat as we go through the next few days, showers a little more widespread as we go through monday as things do turn more unsettle, but warming up and dry, further east. ah frank assessments, what are the political risks of bad russian oil gas for western leaders will sanctions on russian energy exports. a recipe for such informed opinions,

france is not abandoning to fight against yet is still reserved media debt. going to be acting from the share and from chad critical debate. could china actually help in russia's invasion of ukraine in depth analysis of the days global headlines inside story on al jazeera blue. ah, again you're watching out 0. remind about top stories and millions, all stranded in bangladesh and india where floods have submerged villages. well, links have been council for the northeast indian state of a sub where more rain is being for you as president joe biden is heading to japan

which controls the purse strings in turn approved $40000000000.00, and that is what the president signed into law. in other words, the congress wanted to send the signal, look at, we are not only going to prove this money, we're going to send more than what you ask for, which is something that rarely happens. and that is the reason why it was to send vladimir putin a message that there is overwhelming support in the united states for ukraine and pushed back against russia. and in terms of what this money is for, it's not only to kind of back fill the money in the equipment that has already been sent. but in addition, there is also going to be new military equipment in the form of stingers and, and javelins, but also training and logistics support. and also there's going to be 5000000000 that's also going to be allocated for really addressing one of the growing needs. and that is global food insecurity. when inside ukraine rusher is pushy on with its
