serious flooding in years, is about to get even worse and softer is face program takes on its 1st home grown rock. it sends a satellite into orbit and in sport, serena williams winds her 1st match since returning to tennis. after a year off, the $23.00 time grand slam champion and her doubles partner owns deborah came from a sat down when they're opening, mash and east. ah . stage election officials have told the u. s. congress that they were personally pressured by then president donald trump. to overturn the result of the 2020 election, they've testified before the 4th hearing of the house committee investigation into last year's at capitol hill riot. to swing states that have been in focus during tuesday's hearing our georgia and arizona. a committee has heard testimony from
12:02 am
georgia sector state as well as arizona's state leadership, based on our zone as how speaker russell bowers. a long time republican has spoken about a phone call with president trump after the election. he says trump pushed for his team to be allowed into the state capitol to present what they called evidence of voter fraud. but he refused. up to that time the, the circus i called in circus had been brewing with lots of demonstrations, both at the counting center at the capital and other places. and i didn't want to have that in the house. i did not feel that the ovens granted in its absence, merited a hearing and i didn't want to be used as a pawn committee hearing also had accepts a phone calls between trump and georgia sector state brad reference becca. can you get together about and brad? we just wanted to keep it simple and and everyone's going to look very good of
12:03 am
the truth comes out. it's ok it take a little while, but let the truth come out. and the real truth is that one by 400000 vote at least . so what are so what do we need to do here, but i only need $11000.00. i need 11000 votes. gimme a break. what is your cost to go and just live from capitol hill? and heidi is a picture emerging of that kind of intense pressure, some of these republican officials who were under to overturn the election result and in trunks personal involvement in that a sprite warren. and what's notable is kind of the lopsided balance of power. here. you had the president of the united states personally calling these election officials who were republican in the swing states that had gone to joe biden. and we heard from that top election official in georgia. brad rapids burger describing this phone call from trump in which trump deliberately asked for one more vote than what joe biden had. one in georgia. i
12:04 am
asked for his response to that reference burger told the committee that he simply couldn't do it. he said he had followed the law and there was simply no votes to be found despite the pressure to find those votes by president trump and he suffered personal consequences to that. he said his wife was harassed and his daughter in law had her home, broken into similar story from arizona where we heard the republican house speakers say he got a call from rudy giuliani trumps personal attorney and julie uneasiness and said hey, we're all republicans here. help me out. he said he didn't get a good reception because the speaker of the house refused to comply. he said, he sworn oath to the constitution and to the state of arizona, not to donald trump, but also o equally as compelling was the testimony of to every day americans. these were 2 women who were election workers in the state of georgia, and who were singled out by name by the president himself. donald trump,
12:05 am
accusing them falsely of counting fake ballots. all of that was disprove it. the mother of that do, oh tele investigators in compelling testimony that she was shocked that the president of the united states would single her out in target. her. her words being that the president of the united states was there to represent all americans, not to target one american. all of us coming out today while president trump former president trump, posting online even before the hearings. start saying that his call with georgia tech, terry of state, he said was, quote, unquote, perfect. and he called the candle that's investigating him and congress crazed democrats. and what the fate be of all was testimony. right, that is a good question. this was compelling stuff here. and we know that americans had been tuning in, however, opinions about donald trump, about how january 6 happen and who is responsible is so baked in to people's opinions most are saying there's little reason to believe any one's mind will be
12:06 am
changed and they're still pretty even split with republicans firmly backing president, the former president trump, but still possible here is that the department of justice may pursue criminal charges against france 8, perhaps even against from himself. and the evidence that we are seeing laid out to the public here may be useful for potential criminal investigation as well. what is your customer? thank you very much. indeed. bill schneider is a public policy professor at george mason university, joins us live from washington, d. c. thanks very much for being with us. so what would you say was the most telling part of the, the testimony in today's hearing? hearing president trump, in his own voice, in his own words, threatening public officials. this is a crime. it is interference with an election, particularly in georgia. you heard him talk to brad robins, burger, find me 11791 votes so that i can win the election. that is a legal criminal pressure on a public official to interfere with the result of an election. and the question is,
12:07 am
will the justice department now under president biden see fit to issue some sort of criminal indictment or criminal charges against the former president? that's the bottom line that people are waiting, waiting for, an an on that to mean. how likely do you think the current justice department will do that? i don't know their lawyers and they respect their, the constitution in the law. but it's a big political risk because trump hasn't following his army. his army has, has really taken over the republican party. it's been radicalized, and we're seeing the results of that right now. so i don't know how likely it is that this justice department, which is normally respectful of public officials respectful of the law. i don't know if they're going to pursue accrual investigation, but if they do, it will be explosive. the question is, will it make it impossible for donald trump to run for president in 2024? we don't know the answer to that yet. i don't think there are any federal laws
12:08 am
prohibiting even an indicted person from running for president. there may be state laws tell me that even you mentioned the effect tongue republicans mean, but we had some quite strong language on, on why some of these republican officials resisted that sort of pressure and why they stood that ground. do you think that will have any kind of influence on the, on republican party to on the republican party now, probably not. some republicans are unhappy with the influence of the trump people. look, the republican party has been taken over by an extremist movement. it's the radical right. they've been around for 200 years in american politics. but something is new here. what's new is they been in the seat of power. they've elected a president for the 1st time ever. that was donald trump in 2016. and he served for 4 years. he can't abide the fact that he was not re elected that simply unacceptable to him. and so he's managed to convince himself that he actually won
12:09 am
and his followers believe he actually one. that is something deb brand new in american politics. we've never seen it before and we don't know what is repercussions will be. and in terms of what you've heard in the, in the hearings so far, will any of that informational and testimony make any difference? those people you say, do still believe what tom said beneath his narrative or any of those likely to change their minds and, and perhaps be less likely to support him if he were to stance again into the table . well, some probably will be influenced when they hear the words coming out of trumps mouth when he's telling state election officials in georgia in arizona. what they need, where they have to do. he's moralists giving them orders to violate election laws. and that is going to be shocking to a small number of republicans. but look, the important thing is that most republicans right now are trump supporters. they believe him and they're with him, and they're going to support him right now. he's still at the top of the list of people of the person republicans want to nominate in 2024. and they are unlikely to
12:10 am
give that up unless there's really some much more dramatic evidence. and we've heard so far. this is a very dangerous situation. and a risk to american democracy, those 9 to thank you very much indeed. tiffany, perspective on those events. thank you. thank you. still to come, this is our no way back. israel's outgoing government promises its collapse will not mean to return to benjamin netanyahu. sno blood in the french ubs. why scientists suspect these red patches and linked to climate change. and his board and other of golf's star players look set to leave the pga tour as story come out. nation program. ah, russian territory in the baltics as emerged as a new frontier of tensions between moscow and the e. u over ukraine. russia has threatened lithuania with serious consequences after
12:11 am
it halted rail transit of several sanction goods to kellen in grad, from mccain as more from the german capital berlin. this is the main port in colleen in grat. it's facilities are important to the russian economy. for this is the only all year round ice free port, the country has on the baltic sea. many products essential for the local population in the russian exclaimed, come by sea, but many more come by land and are now being stopped. and if people in the stalls are to be believed, e u sanctions are hurting crispin or it's a strawberry can i think we should pack up our belongings and leave because you can't go anywhere. this has never happened. i think not only me how many people are planning it now or even regretting that they are living in colleen ingram reaching out. any of those sanctions target specific license that transit new territory this case by a rail through lithuania to and from russia that sanctioned goods, e,
12:12 am
steel, and other arg was made from iraq or will no longer be allowed to transit's early training. it is done with consultation for the european will european commissions and under the european commission guidelines. in many ways, claiming grad is a historical anomaly once part of what was called east prussia, but taken by the soviet union from nazi germany at the end of world war 2, then became part of the wider you ssr. but when that country died in the early 19 ninety's, the russian federation chose to hold on to coline grad. and so it became an exclaim, separated from russia proper by the newly independent baltic states. which helps explain why officials in moscow are so agitated by the impact of sanctions. and have warned the people of lithuania to expect retaliation for their government's actions at that premium. because this example shows that you cannot trust either verbal statements by the west or written ones. no rush will certainly respond to
12:13 am
such hostile actions and about appropriate measures are being worked out between departments and will be taken in the near future. their consequences will have a serious negative impact on the population of a for when you might, well, it's a threat. some lithuanians have long anticipated baltic renters differently from many other countries of european union. didn't have any illusions about that rule or attempts, and they d, a soft russia, a threat to one or all of the baltic states would constitute a threat to nato. many in the atlantic alliance maintain an armed presence there. this was the german chancellor visiting his country soldiers in lithuania just 2 weeks ago. like many other european leaders, all of shots says his country will defend every centimeter of nato territory. donna kane, al jazeera berlin, our diplomatic editor james bays asked at the un chiefs spectrum and about the
12:14 am
tension ever cleaning grad. we're obviously following these developments very closely in and around a clean grad, including i think the warnings we have seen of possible escalation, which are very concerning. it's very important for us at all sides, deal with their concerns through effective dialogue, with appropriate diplomatic channels in accordance with international law, and to refrain from any statement or from any action that could aggravate the tense situation. or colleen grad lies almost 400 kilometers west of mainland russia. as we mentioned, it was cut off from the rest of russia after the collapse of the soviet union in 1991. as a result, the regions, main rail linked to russia and it's half a 1000000 residence, goes through if you and you and ben ruth, it is strategically vital for russia's navy. this is where it keeps its black c fleet with about 80 warships and submarines. some of them can find nuclear missiles
12:15 am
. what you're hilton is a defense and security for the globe seka global think tank committed to enhancing security and sustainability joins us live from vienna. thank you for being with us . what do you make of attention that seems to be building over the whole clinton grad issue to be interested in the morning. thank you for having me. i mean, based on the situation, and this really should be a big surprise. 21 prior to going on near here, early st. they've been preparing the situation for a long time. so i mean, this is just in a reanimation favorite tension between russia. so i think what they're about to come forward is not a big surprise for anybody on this, the parts of needed, or how damaging or just explain just how damaging it would be for russia if, if it's a rail link, is cut off in this way. well, i mean, i think it to begin with a temporary issue where they can still get the goods from the petersburg from the ball. and as you pointed out at the beginning, even during the winter season,
12:16 am
it's still possible. but it's a massive inconvenience in terms. busy having to circumvent the path, it's much more expensive and obviously there's a lot more going on when it comes to the sort of the population and what they take from it. the video that's been coming out of you got enough to run on the supermarket any showing the panic and this year going on the exact opposite of what president was going for. so even if it's temporary, this is a sign that your rush is not in complete control out there are ramifications and rushes wound of severe consequences. what do you think those might be? well, i mean, everybody talks about severe consequences in the states have been living with the inspector of severe consequences for a long time. most people, depending on, you know, most experts are military and they've been looking at coline grinding. yup for a while. but i think a different you want to, i don't think russia will start at the high end of the escalation mater, because it doesn't make any sense militarily. if they were to go with the have the option to given the package will probably be a mix of hybrid us in cyber and
12:17 am
a surprise, surprise packet that we're not aware about. i think increasingly what we've demonstrated with celebration with the refugee prices. i think we can look to something like that, but what i want to point out for all the years is that one major. we've been removed from the energy where, you know, for a while now the conflict started when he has not had any import them energy from russia. and they already are getting pre math deliveries from l. n. g in their terminals from united states. a lot of them can be much free and their decision making. yes. sorry. i was wondering what lies behind glittering is just timing with the to mean. do you think it is they? they've said, oh it's we just incrementing the sanctions. do you think that is all there is to it? was the more behind the decision? mean, listen, i think everybody in capitals, whether it's donors, power, read or taking every opportunity to try to give it to russia. and this is just a great piece of work, or administer line disorganized interpretation and really a loophole that can he exploit?
12:18 am
i mean, even the high repre you're around, you said with the when he was innocent, but they would have to double check. but in retrospect, i mean, this is just an example of a way out smarty, russia, which i think is, you know, privately very humiliating. a small raffle from the past. now instructing the movement of goods for you know, from their territory me, shouts, marching. russia is, is there danger though, that this could, it could end up being one of those moments of escalation given that this year and you as a member of nato. and if there is any kind of retaliation against, if you're given it does become a would theoretically anyway, because i want to complet will learn, haven't both. you and i've been under this threat of escalation as a beginning of the war. and i remember sitting there watching the meeting with the minister showing you and other members of rushing national security council when they need to report this on high alert. and i think a lot of it doesn't make a lot of sense for them to go to military lee. some of the options that are on the
12:19 am
table, whether it's the option i'm going to go. yeah, the juice does not work to squeeze. and i think that in the short term, at least a lot of it is just a luster. and the most important thing that russian you now it's consolidated issue there hadn't been more than enough problem ukrainian in the done das let alone. i'm able to take some major capitals. so logically speaking, i'm not one to think that there's an imminent threat while something is still serious, need vigilance. i don't. i think it's more in the words and explain a very we can at the moment or j hilton. thank you very much indeed. federal interest a rush as president says, he will modernize his army in response to growing international threats. vladimir putin outline plans on tuesday, including making rushes ground troops more combat effective for future conflicts. machinery, which we will continue to develop and strengthen our armed forces, taking into account potential military threats and risks based on the lessons of modern armed conflicts. a priority is equipping troops with new weapon systems that
12:20 am
will determine the combat effectiveness of the army and navy. in the years and decades to come, in addition to the new weapons already tested, troops are receiving s 500 air defense and missile defense systems that are unmatched in the world yoyo, but group neighbors. the regional governor of ukraine's 2nd largest city her cave says at least 15 civilians were killed by russia. shelling on tuesday or to weeks a relative come russian forces of intensified bombardment of the region of been several attacks in recent days on sunday. ukrainian authorities warned moscow is trying to make hockey a new front line in the war. the city was heavily damaged at the beginning of the conflict in march. a school in ukraine's donetta region has been hit by russian shelling original governor released this video showing the building in the city of of t k. in flames. no casualties were 40 official say to the 3rd school in the city to be hit by russia. and one of up to 200 schools destroyed across internet's region.
12:21 am
ukrainian officials say russian forces have captured more territory near the embattled eastern cities of lucy shanaski and several genetics. the situation there and in ukraine south has been described as a stalemate with both sides suffering heavy losses. out of there. as char stratford spoke to president vladimir zelinski, his advisor behind a puddle, jak about the way forward. you said that there would never be any kind of deal that would potentially seed territory to russia. how realistic is that? when you look at an area of, of land, the size of crimea, for example, an area of land in order to take control back of it. militarily, will involve potentially billions, more dollars worth of western weapons and thousands of lives. where did a threat know, still get any surrender of ukrainian territory would mean the war will continue with greater intensity. and on an even greater scale here, you should not see russia as an honest negotiating partner and sound legal
12:22 am
agreements with. it is not believing it will be credible and honored in 2 or 3 years in russia is expansionist to the go. so it exists only by attacking other states. it attacks in various ways that using its energy resources, its military migration for using food as a weapon that the coin can never santa deal with russia in this context expense. and therefore, the president clearly asked western pioneers to participate in this war because ukraine doesn't have the military sources that russia has a, we want to finish this war the right way, are going. and that means liberating our territories in full. but also in re establishing our sovereignty with an internationally recognized borders. this is good also. do you believe everything that western leaders like president micron, like all of schultz, for example, say, giving you. certainly in rhetoric wholehearted support. when you look at the facts, we're looking potentially at a global recession, a global food crisis, rising inflation, huge challenges with gas supplies to europe in winter. how long do you honestly
12:23 am
think that the europeans can continue this level of support? what looks like is new, but sure, but in some countries living standards are dropping because of the situation in ukraine on it. but this is an all out war when it's happening on european territory . so of course i'm living standards are decreasing, which because europeans are indirectly involved in this war monster, they are paying for the expenses of this war. i understand they want to preserve their pre war life and comforts, and nobody wants bad news. but if russia gains more territory, it will think its tactics and strategy of humiliating other countries work so in all, and it will continue black mailing europe or in what you say to you countries who say that you are not yet ready for you candidacy status? yes, sir, values that are worth living for a new queen is proving on the battlefield that these values cost lives. there are european values and secondly, i don't understand why you candidacy cannot be seen as an opportunity for ukraine
12:24 am
to make the reforms we need for membership. unfortunately not every country understands the sea and is unnecessarily speculating that ukraine is not ready for europe is important for ukraine, and that works both ways. linear ministers in israel's outgoing government have vowed to prevent a come back by former prime minister benjamin netanyahu. fragile coalition announced on monday that parliament would be dissolved means israel can expect its 5th elections in less than 4 years with polling predicting no clear winner. and smith has more from west jewish them. for a year, benjamin netanyahu has been working to bring down the coalition that asked him from power. and he's managed it by blocking the normally automatic renewal of a bill that extends israeli law into the settlements. now netanyahu sees a pop back to the prime minister's office, luca room of who i intend to form a strong national, steady government. i think the atmosphere changed show. i can feel it any more. i
12:25 am
hear from the people who show up. we now want to will change. we want to return the state of israel to the place in the service and i intend to do it together to with my friends. the outgoing a party coalition was the most unusual israeli history made up of the hard right. liberals on palestinian israelis from the arab list, they came together to get rid of netanyahu, but they claim other achieve. i must say that them son because the government was a pretty good government, was corp between ubs and jewish. it wasn't the fixing the canoe. was a very good ministers, especially in home and 10 in national corporation. and i think that this government, it was very good for the citizens. i just all suggest benjamin netanyahu caught when 60 of the $126.00 grabs in the classes election won't be held until towards
12:26 am
the end of october. until then. yeah. like the israel entering privacy and your spectrum engineering senior political analyst now and be sure he says it could signal the end of benjamin netanyahu, his political career, if he doesn't become prime minister again. and that the now is now leaving the biggest block in the israeli connection is really palmer and there is a shout just a chance that he could come back and become prime minister again if he doesn't, that will be the end of his political career. what he's trying to do now is not gotten other elections. what he's trying to do now is with the existing parliament to be able to form our majority because of the defections from the present government. what you have now that is more dangerous than before, is that not only you have radical right, leaving the israel, the government. you have the radical right leading the opposition in israel. so in fact, what we have now is more than 3 quarters of the israeli parliament is on the right
12:27 am
or the radical right. the only thing that stopping for for a real right winged government for emerging with some 75 seats is nathan yell, meaning net. now is both a uniting figure for the liquid party, but a device, if figured for israel. a lot of the other partners would not join him because they do not trust him for the palestinians. bennett natania, how it's really more of the same continuation of occupational partied. israel is conducting military drills in my suffer. yetta in the occupied westbank is the 1st exercise in the area. since the ready supreme court rejected a palestinian appeal against the firing zone. there a court decision means that palestinians could be forcibly evicted to abraham reports from a southeast of hebron in the occupied westbank. these really army has put up these targets here in miss after 2 years, in preparations for military exercises that are expected to last for one month.
12:28 am
this area is called mass acid office and people, i've recently lost an appeal at the israeli supreme court to stay on their lads. these really supreme court effectively gave these really the green lied to evict palestinians as these really army declared the area of firing zone. we can go, this is you can say firing range fighting. now activists from the surrounding areas came here. they took out those targets as a way to prevent the israelis from conducting exercises in the area. well, they look at all these vast areas. israel occupied parts of yes and 1948 other parts in 1900. 67. not only can they train the israeli army over there,
12:29 am
but the american and russian was to come here to our lunch and said, these really military presents the demolitions, the military drills all seem to hear by people as pretty new to forcible eviction that could take place any minute now, but people tell us that these scare tactics are not working. they say they've lived here for decades. this is home and they have nowhere else to go. palestinian authority say a man was stabbed and killed by an israeli set in the occupied west bank on tuesday . when you say the 28 year old passed in was working on his land when a group of settlers attacked him. palestinian foreign affairs ministry has condemned the killing human rights expert say there's been an increase in violence by settlers against past indians in the occupied west bank. so to come on out here, molly, in morning more than a 100 people have been killed in what the government is calling terror attack. his vote, we'll hear from the brazil,
