a by turkish forces in the air? the areas are near the borders with iraq. afghanistan, a picket key. there could discern workers, parties at fight us, or it seemed that at many institutions here in iraq are still insisting on accusing it turkey of it, or the turkish forces of carrying out this attack. despite the fact that turkey has strongly denied that and accused the could this 10 air workers party fighters of the carrying gal to the attack. now that today has been declared a morning day in iraq for the victims of the artillery attack in his asshole. his art in northern iraq and it prime minister most of our a kazi, me, it says that he's tweeted that it's a violation of iraq set sovereignty or the many institutions he has specially political institutions are putting pressure on the government to take action by

close to the area where the p k. k. camps were and where the turkish military has been actually shelling since the morning. i have been hearing from the kurdish local sources that the area is very close to the operation area. and the group was also guided by a tourism guide then the local. they're also curious why the civilians, the tourists who came from bag that have been brought very close to the military operation area. so there are questions, even though the government, turkish government doesn't raise well, but there is a perception that the, this is a provocation. and many believe that the, this is by the she factions inside iraq, all right, just and coffee up there, lifeless. it's done both of them. thank you. now a heat wave in western europe is fueling wildfires and stretching emergency services. spain's prime minister says more than 500 people have died because of a soaring temperatures. same as robbie has this report from tba in northern spain.

ministers blending turkey for an attack in the kurdish region of northern iraq. on wednesday, 8 people were killed and $23.00 wounded turkey, which is the allegations russia, foreign minister says moscow's military goals in ukraine have now widened beyond the eastern region of don bass saga lab, rob told state media, that forces would target the regions of course, on anzac morisha some only velocity should go, which when there was a meeting in houston bull, there was one geography and our willingness to accept the ukrainian proposal was based on that geography for the geography at the end of march 2022. now the geography is different. but this is not only the eleanor and the d, n r. this is also the curse and region and the sample regia region and a number of other territories. this process continues and continues consistently

and persistently with me all the u. s. says high mobility, artillery rocket systems, or high mas, have been used successfully by ukraine. at a meeting on wednesday, washington mound its allies agreed to send more military aid us defense secretary lloyd austin, says rushes expansion plans come as no surprise. i'm sure that the ukrainian leadership will be i'm pleased to hear a lot of raw's confirmation of the effectiveness of not only that sister, but how they're using that system. um as you know, russians are currently in a cure song and are from asia. so the russian forces there are barely, are now. we are to wonder who he's talking to. and the u. s. is passing more sophisticated weapons for ukraine on wednesday, ukraine's 1st lady became the 1st spouse of a foreign leader to address the u. s. congress. i mean, as the landscape used the chance to appeal for air defense systems. magical hain as

the story she brought the faces of war and loss to the powerful in washington. liza beloved, so what should they do? dr. lisa was only 4 years old. she is no longer with us. here is the stroller, dorm, ukraine's 1st lady. only nissan sca had a simple message. the u. s. can help more ukrainian survive by sending more air defense systems. yes, it has protruded. she agree, avenue. cool. in the which you were received them weapons that would not be used to wage a war on somebody else's land, but to protect one's home in their right to wake up alive in that home. i'm asking for air defense systems in order for all kids not to be killed and not to kill children in their strollers. in order for august not to destroy children's roles and kill entire families. the u. s. has promised to supply ukraine medium range air defense systems, but so far has only promised to of the national advance surface to air missile

systems. that's not nearly enough to cover a country. the size of ukraine. at the pentagon, promises sent for more high mars rocket launcher systems that ukraine has used to target russian ammunition depots and command control centers. deep behind the front lines that brings the total from the us to 16. and the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff played down rushes game so far. so for 90 days the russian advances have amounted to maybe 6 to 10 miles. something in that range is not very much. it's very intense, lot of violence. tens of thousands of artillery rounds or every 24 hour period for a lots of casualties on both sides. the bind administration is expected to are now the weapons it'll be sent into crane on friday. the. let's get a chance to speak with president joe biden. this week she'll soon find out if her personal plea was enough to get her country the weapon. she says they desperately

need her to go. hey, al jazeera, on capitol hill. yes, president joe biden threatening to take executive action if congress doesn't pass legislation to tackle climate change. he's announced $2300000000.00 in funding for building infrastructure that can hold up against extreme weather and natural disasters. my count has more the president's been taking the heat from fellow democrats who insist he's not doing an up to combat climate change. and they were disappointed with no announcement of a climate emergency or executive action. only a repetition of the threat that he'll take action if congress doesn't. this is an emergency, an emergency, and i will, i will look at it that way. i said last week, say it again loud and clear as president. i use my executive power to combat climate, the climate crisis, the apps, or congressional action. the problem in congress essentially lies in the senate, in particular, one of the president's own party, jo mansion,

who's pulled out of negotiations over climate legislation. given the senate 5050 split, this means unless some republicans break party ranks. any legislation will simply not pass because of, you know, one senator in particular, joe mentioned who gets more money from the oil and gas industry than virtually any other sen by. he is walking by legislation in the senate so that fight and cannot enact his climate agenda there. the site of the president's speech was carefully chosen. the brighten point paula station was labeled one of the full, the 5 industrial polluters in the past. but the coal fired plant was decommissioned 5 years ago and it's now set to become part of a massive, offshore wind power project that could generate a significant amount of green energy. and the president listed what he views as his administration's successes, including the most recent to day. we began the process to develop wind power in the

gulf of mexico as well for the 1st time. a real opportunity, our millions of additional homes from when. but this will not be enough for the presidents critiques who continue to call for stronger executive action. president biden has the power to declare a climate emergency which could assist his administration in limiting the activities of fossil fuel industries on federal lands. but this in turn, could lead to the administration being involved in long drawn our battles in the courts. the president has confirmed his administration's message, that executive action remains on the table. but while the delay in execution continues, there's a real danger that this could become another perceived biden failure that voters would note at the midterm poles. my cana al jazeera washington law schools every

opened in northeast and bangladesh after the worse floods and a century. but many people are still waiting for aid and don't have the money to rebuild their homes. the slant region is one of the hardest hit out. his ear is tanveer. chandry is this. many of the families returned home only to find their homes totally damage. it's uphill struggle. most have lost their life stalks. patty farms, pole trees. now we have gone across in different places, the same story, but they're still happy to be at home. we accept the received any kind of help from the government or agencies. they said very little, some drive forward in the beginning and little bit of cash from the government. it's going to be a very difficult uphill battle for this families to rebuild their homes as the last everything, unless the government and aid agencies financially held them. it's a long road ahead for them. they've been asked to go far away to get fresh water because there's no tubes out of sorts of fresh water. most wants to start their life. but that helpless don't know how to do it because they don't have the money

to rebuild at home, fix the electrons, or even build a water point somewhere to get fresh water. so without some kind of help, life is still very difficult for those millions of people got affected by the flood in last month. now the north stream, one gas pipeline is back up and running off a 10 days of routine maintenance. they had been fears, russia would completely cut gas flows in retaliation for sanctions. europe impose its invasion of ukraine on wednesday, the european commission urge members to reduce gas usage by 15 percent until march, in anticipation of a looming energy crisis. russia is black mailing us. russia is using energy as a weapon. and therefore us, in any of that event, whether it's a partial major cut off of russian gas or total cut off of russian gas, europe needs to be ready. we are asking the member states to reduce fight 15

percent, the gas consumption. 15 percent. why this is the equivalent to $45.00 bcm of gas. and with such a reduction, we can make it safely through this winter in case of a complete disruption of lashan cas columbia's new congress has been sworn in none . for the 1st time, a leftist coalition holds no seats is also the most diverse, with more indigenous black and female empties than ever before. alice, i'll run, petrie reports from bottom. the makeup of columbia's new congress couldn't be more different than the previous one. for the 1st time in history, a progressive coalition is the largest political block in both chambers. is the result of unprecedented elections that will bring a true leftists, gustavo, beatrice and power. in august. when i go into cassey in style only, this is a historic congress for a number of reasons. first, more than 60 percent of representatives are new. it's an important renovation.

second, it's a diverse with more indigenous representatives that come from rural columbia. and finally, for the 1st time 30 percent are women. this is very promising. but the now you're ation was fraught with controversy. outgoing president. the bound luca delivered a feisty speech defending his accomplishments during his tenure. despite abysmal pulling numbers around 20 percent, he attacked the incoming majority saying that they could put people's private property at risk, gets employee us at home. it is possible to have social justice in remote areas without expropriation and prejudice. and we offered an inflexible compromise to peace with legality that advanced in the territory. so the he was repeatedly interrupted by new congress representative. they called him a liar for saying he supported the implementation of the p seal and the protection of social leaders who were killed in unprecedented numbers during duke,

his administration. the new congress, his task with an ambitious reform agenda to combat poverty and inequality. this includes a major tax reform to funds social programs in long postponed land pension and police reform. to do so, petra built a correlation with centuries parties. it should assure him, a majority. experts believe he will take advantage of a honeymoon period. few of his predecessors had, for the 1st time we will have the possibility of getting for congress radical reforms coming from the left. nevertheless, given the fact that the sum majority of the coalition and not a governing coalition for the left wing party, those reforms will have to be tempered down in order to be able to pass for congress. the question now is just how long will that honeymoon last that given the fact that the country is going through difficult konami times with high inflation,

high unemployment, among other issue, an electric that's been demanding, change and reform quickly. and surely, i listen that i'm just now the world's best chess player has used international chess day to make a surprising move back my calls and says he won't be defending his title next year . janetta will have the stores a bombshell from the world best chess player, magnus carlson, announcing he will not defend his title next year. it's very simple that i am not motivated to play another another much. i don't have a lot to gain. i don't particularly like it's, it's opened a lot of doors. i feel like it's it's my time to to go from the world championship 31 year old norwegian, who has spent more than
