monday. that's after the u. s. federal reserve reported record high inflation. it's expected to announce another interest rate rise in the coming days to try to limit cash flow on kong. hang saying, index is down more than 3 percent. the indian ropey fell to a record low dipping below $78.00 to the us dollar. and both the cost fi index in south korea and japan badge many k benchmark nicky, last coast to 3 percent. the japanese yen is at its lowest to the dollar since 1998 . meanwhile, crypto currency bitcoin has tumbled to an 18 month low at under $25000.00. go through a front remainder of the new so that on it's important. the currency rates move stable, reflecting fundamentals law. but recently there have been sharp yen declines, and we are concerned about it. the government will continue to work closely with the bank of japan and stay on guard. paying close attention to currency movements

and the impact on the economy and prices on looking. rob mcbride has more from sol . yeah, it does seem as though the asian markets have had the weekend to digest this increasingly bad news out of the us confirmation on friday that the inflation rate has hit at 40 year high as so as soon as trading started monday, they have the chance to react, and they have been reacting very negatively. all of the major indices showing marked drops. we had the nic, a in tokyo down 3 percent on the day, monday, 3 and a half percent down on the cost be here in south career. assembled a full on the hang sang index in hong kong and also the mum by market as sharply down in india. there are other concerns as well. a driving sentiment here in asia. we've had another koby 19 outbreak in beijing that is raise concerns that once again, the chinese authorities following this policy of 0 cove, it may take the decision to close down parts of the chinese capital,

which again impacts the recovery of the chinese economy. but in the background, of course, is this ongoing concern that the, the u. s. federal reserve may, once again raise interest rates as a way of tackling inflation and likely to see those concerns affecting the way the market's move. as we get into this trading week, and all of these moves by the fed, of course, are increasing the value of the us dollar quite, quite sharply against all of the asian currencies. for example, at one point on monday, the us dollar was buying a $135.00 japanese yen. and the us dollar has not been that strong in more than 20 years. and he now is part of the town in new delhi with more on the fall of the indian currency in just currency and the stock market are responding to global concerns. the biggest worry is the situation in the united states. the worry is that the high interest rates over there could end up increasing interest rates are

high inflation over there rather could end up impacting the interest rates. the other situation that is causing concern is, are the outbreak the coven 19 outbreak in china, particularly in beijing and shanghai. and what this could mean for the chinese economy, as well as the global economy, the indian ruby is now trading at it's lowest levels in history. this has wiped off hundreds of millions of dollars of india as our foreign currency resolve. investors have lost millions of dollars in the stock market, and in the us top companies have also lost billions of dollars in their valuation. now all of this is playing out as there are concerns about uneven growth domestically food. inflation is at a record high. there is an unprecedented heat wave that has damaged crops in central and northern india. the government says it expect themed in economy to grow

at about 9 percent, but economist point out that hundreds of millions of one reuben engines are not are going to benefit from this growth. early i spoke to steven okon, who's a senior advisor to mccarty, associates. he explains what government are doing to tackle the economic challenges . here's the problem. you have all the factors, none of which any particular government can control climate change in which is leading to that excessive heat leading to flooding, leading to drafts you have the crisis resulting from the russian invasion of ukraine, which is of course, driving up, you know, commodities prices because of the inability to get that ukranian wheat and, and to purchase from russia as well. you've got china in the us and what's resulting from those trade tensions. you've got cove it in the, in the shut down, especially in china. so government can't control any of this yet. a government can't tell its own people who there's nothing we can do. so what they're doing is putting in place some export bands now, which is actually going to make the problem a lot worse. even though it,

they think they're going to get a short term political game for like a mattress india. india's got its export ban. and we've, you've seen indonesia band for a while, palm while you've had malaysia banding, the export of chickens. and so all of these governments want to get that political game by showing it to a domestic audience that they're helping them. but it is, it really probably isn't even in the short term, and in the long run it can really get government. so for example, in malaysia, you had a lot of companies come in and make malaysia a regional hub, especially for, you know, for, for chicken and poultry. and what's happened is that domestic and, and, and for and production are intertwined. so when you say you can't ship outside of malaysia, you're costing jobs in malaysia. so it is, is governments really have to be thinking through is this worth the short term political gain of trying to show their, their public that they're doing something in other? well, he is human weiss groups have launched on 11th our appeal to try to stop the u. k

from sending asylum seekers to wanda. oh, on friday the high court approved the government plan, but on monday campaign is will ask the court of appeal to reverse that judgment. the 1st flight is scheduled to leave on tuesday, lived to nadine babble, who's outside the court in london for i sent him one of the chances for this appeal to succeed wilfully those migrant support groups believe the the chance is strong. now just to clarify, what happened on friday was the judge here at the high court refuse to grant them an injunction blocking the flight, suki. golly, shuttled for tuesday, or they'd argued that it was both illegal and immoral. now, the judge admitted that there was that there were questions over the galaxy of the whole scheme said that would be considered in a judicial review at another hearing expected next month over 2 days. but said the

immediate risks to the claimant's, the group's represent wasn't great enough to block tuesday's flight. they're saying it is, and they said they got new information, which box them up for a start. they're saying that the claimants who receive letters putting them on the deportation list for rwanda, were misled because they were told of the you ends, refugee agency, the you and hcr was on board with this. steve, you would actually are told the court on friday through a lawyer that that wasn't the case and stressed that the you and hcr believe the hosting was on lawful. and just in the last hour, you and hcr lawyer again reiterated that all of these concerns had been clearly expressed to the home secretary, pretty patel. soon after the scheme was announced in april, the government is sticking to its line. sometimes it says that this is being done to save lives, to stop people who are deterrent from getting on dangerous boats and crossing the

english channel. but earlier on monday, the prime minister had another argument. this is about making sure that we break the business model of criminal gangs who not only risking people's lives, but undermining public confidence in legal migration. i'm the but if my fan is beneficiary of legal, a migration to this country, lots of businesses have legal migration in this country. we want to stop the illegal migrants and come in, we will. we wanted to turn the criminal guys because they're not only endangering their lives, they're ripping them off. will campaign his word point out there? in fact, the evidence suggests a clear majority around 2 thirds of people actually crossing the channel. the most boats are successful in the asylum applications in the u. k. and they told but also say that since the scheme was announced, the numbers arriving by boat have actually gone up and there's no, there's nothing to suggest that this deterrent would actually work. whatever the

case, the numbers on that flight to morrow have been dropping since friday with a home office, taking more and more people off. as long as i get involved and points out the risks to the rights. for example, syrians, you might be said from rwanda, back to syria, whether it face abuse or iraq, his iranians, albanians, various nationalities on the list. but as i say, it's dropping all the time from more than 30 stands at around 10. now it's quite possible that even if it were a flight to go ahead on tuesday night that be nobody on it. thank you for that. nadine bubba live there in london. the war in ukraine now and military representatives of the self proclaimed don't yet sk people's republic, say the last bridge out of the city of severe done yes, has been destroyed. it's an area where the cranium present vermin. lensky said his forces had been fighting for literally every meter, a bridge connected, the city with less chance, and the russians have targeted the reach an intensity for days. hundreds of

civilians are reported to be still in the city, sheltering at a chemical plant. 0 then yes, what is visibly jerome was little girl should ever dynette has practically been blocked out to the blue of the last bridge which connected it to life. the shank is going okay. those ukrainian divisions that are there are there forever. they have 2 options. either to follow the example of their fellow service men and surrender, or to die. there is no other option. luminated escalate to chance transferred in key fi charlie, bring us up to speed with what's been happening in sierra, tennessee. yes, potentially a very dire situation in that city sivilton. it's one of 2 cities that the russians are not. bull control off in the region of lou ganske in don bass. we've actually spoken to a deputy commander who is serving a ukrainian deputy commander serving insubordinate in the last half an hour or so. he saying that indeed that 3rd and last bridge had been hit this morning we

understand by russian forces. but we cannot confirm as to whether that bridge has been completely and utterly destroyed. now, if indeed it has, it has huge implications, obviously for the ukrainian forces military and fighters in that side. that to city in terms of getting military supplies across that river to them and potentially for an xscape route if they retreat. and it also has huge implications for what we understand, what we're being told are up to around $10000.00 civilians inside the city. now, according to the head of lou ganske, regional administration, military regional administration, he saying that there are around about 500 civilians sheltering underneath that chemical plant. the assault chemical plant that we know is come on the heavy shelling according to the ukrainians in recent days. he's saying that could be up to 40 children,

also it amongst those civilians. so these reports of this bridge being here have as i say, massy, been very worrying implications not only for the ukrainian military, but for those thousands of civilians trapped inside that city. we also know that church suddenly, according to our sources, that the neighboring city across the river of lucy chance is also getting heavily shells. we know that the she chanced as a city is in a raised position. it's higher up on a hill overlooking, severed the nets and the river. and as i said, this is, would be the loss in chance that that would fall to the russians. but we understand accordance military analysts and soldiers that we've been speaking to that. so that would be no small endeavor for russian forces because of the geographical characteristics of that city. as i say, we cannot confirm that this bridge has been completely destroy, but if it has,

it has yes, quite concerned to be on the stand could be 10000 civilians in that city, either tracked or unwilling to leave. thank you for that. johnny tom stratford lived there with the latest from keith. as still head on al jazeera anger on the streets force. the air force says us senators to act on tight and can and child and lease in brazil. find i tennis belonging to 2 men missing in the amazon. ah, the journey has begun. the 34 world copies on its way to the castle. book your travel package today. hello, that is more rain to come from much of the stage in the days ahead. we've already seen since severe flooding in southern areas of china. thanks for the seasonal weather front. the pulsing those pockets of heavy rain for the east taiwan. we'll

erin mccoys, that he is not certain to have an absolute majority in parliament, and that will make his life more difficult if he hasn't got one. so he is tried to hummer this message in the last few days or before the 1st run and he will be trying to push that message for the 2nd. ron, give me a majority. in one week, voters will return to the polls for the 2nd round of the election and will determine how france is governed for the next 5 years. whether there will be a swing to the left or more of the same. natasha butler out to sara paris. members of the largest political block, any ranks, parliament have resigned after 8 months of deadlock over forming a government. it follows a request from their leader, the shia cleric, montana, our santa on thursday he threatened to withdraw from parliament if a national majority government couldn't be formed by sunday. 73 lawmakers stepped down for the elderly. so i'll just the limit. iraq does not need the formulation

martyr's onions and other vegetables are used to so vegetables. but the money was very little. now, i'm earning a bit more and i can send my children to school here. and none of these women had any experience in mining. they learned on the job in a country with a very high unemployment rate. these aqua marine gemstones have created new opportunities for them. they plan to start a jewelry line making pieces like these from the gemstones. the women say working at the mine is empowering, most of them i survivors of abuse and bed circumstances at home in this has been a safe place for them to come to be the same in that's when they come to work here . they are able to get out of situations that they've been in because before they were depending on their partner and they couldn't get out of situations in this places provide them that opportunity to get out of always economy has been in

crisis for years in place and jumped to more than 130 percent in may. families are struggling. this is mainly a farming area. each family has a small piece of land with the go crops to eat or sal, but they still struggle to make ends meet. like if we're out of the country, finding a proper job is difficult. patina, my cooper's husband is too ill to get a job working at the mind. she's now a family's breadwinner. some people tell her and her colleagues that men can do their jobs better and foster, but they say that doesn't bother them. they are grateful they can provide for the children during these tough times. harder matessa al jazeera, who, wrongly zimbabwe, a bipartisan group of senators in the united states has agreed on a framework for new gun control laws. it seemed that curbing rising violence and would keep weapons away from people considered a threat. but critics say the measures don't go far enough. my can, i have reports in washington the framework agreement, photos,

weeks of closed door negotiations in the senate. it's one of the 1st bipartisan gun control agreements in decades. we haven't had significant federal legislation in nearly 30 years. so having a framework announced having 10 republican senators, long with 10 democrats signing off on that, which would avoid the filibuster in the united states senate. it's a really big deal. the tentative agreement has been welcomed by president biden, who's tweeted, i want to thank senator chris murphy and the bipartisan group for the gun safety proposal that does not do everything that i think is needed. but it reflects important steps in the right direction with bipartisan support. there are no excuses for delay. let's get this done. but some don't want it done. i think it's deeply disappointing that republican leadership decided to get in lead with the democratic conference in the senate to put together a gun control bill. you know,

that should be a huge red flag for republican voters going into the fall. significant proposals include incentives for states to pass so called red flag laws, which allow a judge to decide whether a gun via or owner poses a potential threat to others. federal background checks and buyers under $21.00 would include access to their records as minors and federal funding for mental health care and increase school security. but these measures for well short of what's being demanded by gun control. advocates including president biden himself values across us saturday calls were made for a bad on the sale of semi automatic weapons and high capacity magazines. and for the age at which an individual can buy a rifle range from $18.00 to $21.00. to match the existing federal law concerning hand guns, assault rifles were used in the mess,

shootings and you've all the texas and in buffalo, new york. in each case, they were wielded by 18 year olds, the senate to subset an informal goal of passing the bull before the 24th of the month. when congress goes on a 2 week recess. back with the legislation still not fully written, it's unlikely that this goals will be met and it's certain that the modest suggestions will do little to ease the mounting pressure on politicians to pass meaningful gun control measures or face the consequences in the midterm elections. mike, hannah, august era, washington police in brazil say they have identified items belonging to a reporter and an indigenous rights expert who went missing in the amazon, a backpack, a laptop and id cards were found in the eat, a choir river indigenous rights expert, bruno pereira,
