struggles on al jazeera ah, investigating the use and abuse of power across the globe on al jazeera, ah roches security council chafe warns lithuania of serious consequences for restricting some round transit to moscow's exclaim of kellen in grand. ah, hello, i'm emily anglin. this is al jazeera, alive from doha, also coming up of britain's biggest rail strike in 30 years is underway. as unions want of a summer of discontent. struggling to get aid into flood, hit north east in india and bangladesh, the military steps into a lift,

food and fuel to submerged areas. it left off in south korea. the country deployed as satellite from its 1st domestically produced space rocket. russia says it will retaliate after lithuania stumped transit of some goods to kellen. in grad kellum in grad is which, between at lithuania and poland, making it the only russian region surrounded by 2 nato members. the restrictions are affecting the only railroad linking the territory with the rest of russia. if the wine in official saying the ban only applies to goods sanctioned by the e u, which includes coal and some metals. following this for us is dominant cane who is in berlin and joins us live now. dom, your obviously in europe. is there

a fee that this war could spill over into other countries? certainly there is serious concern, particularly in the baltic states at what rushes intentions are in so far as cleaning god is concerned and the rest of the russian federation and those concerns while they've been there for many years. but obviously in this calendar year, they've grown exponentially, seemingly after the war and ukraine began. and so what you have here now, at least the lithuanian government says this, as does the you is that lithuania is prohibiting certain sanctioned items from being transported via rail, from carrying in grad, through its territory through lithuanian territory to the rest of the russian federation. the russian government, however, sees things very differently, sees this as an infringement of its sovereignty, hence the references from that russian security council member to retaliation.

hence the suggestion coming from him that the listen lithuanian people will suffer as a consequence of this. so yes, there's definitely very serious concern not just in the baltic states, but it has to be said at a pan e u level. in town, we're hearing that the ear has their trash and to refrain from these escalate or a steps. talk us through the significance of that and why callan grant is so important to russia. all of this stems from the aftermath of the 2nd world war. at the end of world war 2, the then soviet premier, stalin decided that the soviet union should annex previously not see german territory. so east prussia, as that area was called with its capital city of koenigsberg, was renamed colleen in graz. colleen in being a prominent soviet statesman at the time. now that didn't matter,

and so far as exclaims, are concerned, because back then the soviet union, which obviously included russia, the baltic states and belarus was one contiguous country. and so adding territory to it's meant no ex cloves, but when the soviet union died in the early 19 ninety's, the russian federation decided to hold on to that piece of territory because it has port facilities. and in some people's eyes in the western world, it could be a launching pad for all manner of military ventures. and that's why it's important . but it of, it has become much more important since the baltic states and poland joined ne, so because now it is, it sticks out as it were, as this ex, globe of russian territory surrounded by nato countries. and with those countries in ne, so those e u countries, the baltic states and poland, aligning, if not allying themselves with ukraine. you then have the potential for this to,

to develop into a tinderbox as it were. it is worth making the point that obviously from a maritime perspective, that passes the world. colleen and grudge has port facilities. it is possible for russian products, goods and so forth, to travel by sea and won't be impeded. it's just the land roots, which in this instance are causing the problem. but it is clear that this does have the potential to be played by many different people in different ways. and lots of people in the you are concerned. we appreciate you breaking it down for us. thank you very much. dominate, came live for us in berlin. the biggest round strike in britain in 3 decades is under way tens of thousands of workers have walked down to mining better pay and job security. they've rejected a wage increase of 2 percent, while inflation is at 9 percent. usually have down the do believe i go of space

straight, can't do that math. so it's fine. otherwise we're to have like a couple of hours. maybe i should say i did avoid traveling in the morning. well, i'm going to be late for, but we did have some stuff slip into the building last night so that they could help open up because i walk in a footstool and we decide to we so we couldn't come to this surgery. but we had to do is just get some stuff speaking to the hospital and then others are trying to think how when the money. so i'll be planned myself though. it did affect the service we provide. but they have nothing to do. if they decide to strike then pena oh brennan has the latest from london. london waterloo is actually a station that i know well i, i use this station to commute in and out of london myself and to see it as quiet as this in the middle of a working week is quite extraordinary. we do get occasional trains every 10 or 15

minutes arriving. but in between those trains arriving. that's called course is absolutely deserted. apart from the security guards and our highways jackets and the occasional maintenance workers drank pressed. the strike here in london is very, very strongly supported by the r n t union. and it has to be said that london and some of the big cities are getting off comparatively likely, at least some services are running elsewhere in the u. k. in more than 50 percent of the network, there are no trains at all. so large ports of wales, of scotland, anywhere and north of glasgow and edinburgh is not seeing any trains their services down to pen samson cornwall, down to bomb up on the south coast. no services there at all. so you can imagine destruction for hundreds of thousands of rail passengers. not just today tuesday, but also in the coming days, thursday and saturday, our strike days on the days in between. also being profoundly affect as well

because the knock on impacts of trains being out of place. the dispute itself is about various things from the union side. it's about pay, it's about jobs, it's about conditions from the network rail side, the employers side. it's about amending working practices that they say have come from the ark old fashion practices, restricted practices that have been allowed to continue. can there be a compromise? well, it's difficult to see at the moment up that they were talking right up to the wire . on monday afternoon, before talk for cold off on the strike was decided to be allowed to go ahead. they will continue talking during the course of the strike action, but they are empty of let it be known that they have a mandate from war strikes, not just this week, but in the coming weeks and months, all the way up to november. and the other thing to remember is that the r m t is dispute is just a symptom of a wider problem here in the u. k. in fact, across your where inflation is roaring away the price of food gas, electricity,

power is, is being, is accelerating at a rate. we're into double fate will soon be in double figures here in the u. k. 10 percent or more of price increases. at the same time as pay and the money in people's pockets has been static for a number of years now. so people are getting increasingly unhappy about the cost, what they call the cost of living crisis. and that means that other unions, particularly public sector service, public sector unions such as teaches doctors, nurses, local government workers, they'll all look in the potential for our m t strike to be just the start of a domino effect as other professions other industries start to raise their concerns about their pay and conditions to watkins turn the possibility of a summer of discontent. the west funding in bangladesh in years could be bound to get much where small rainy's forecast and major rivers are expected to rise. millions of homes are under water and authorities are struggling to deliver emergency supplies. the worst flooding using the districts in the north and north
