future gains access to this in battles, towns. they take us to their basement, where we find others sheltering from the shelling these evacuation. now the basic 3 day journey devastated buildings are now a grim reminder that the russians were here. after a lifetime within the walls have been a rainy into a bengal tiger horizons us suddenly whiten when she lands an unlikely roll in a feature film. but how long can have better sweet freedom last when crisis strikes the z? ah, witness meyer, a tiger tail on al jazeera, a diverse range of stories from across the gland, from the perspective of on network journalists on al jazeera. ah,

russia put the squeeze on gas supplies to europe, while the e responds with an action plan to curb its energy use. ah, i'm carry johnston. this is al jazeera, alive from day, also coming out and of an air of russia announced as it will stop sending its cosmonaut to the international space station in the future of the project into question. because global economic outlook, the i, m f, warns of an imminent recession because of the war and ukraine, the pandemic and unrest in the democratic republic of congo. several protested, and 3 peacekeepers have been killed in the eastern city of goma. ah, you member states have reached an agreement to ration gas after russia announced

yet another cut to its supplies. estate energy giant gas prom says it will reduce gas flows to the north trim one pipeline to germany to 20 percent capacity. russia blames the issue on a faulty gas turbine, but e u leaders say the move is politically motivated until the al shami reports from brussels. the energy crisis looming over europe dominated the meeting of u ministers in brussels, russian and gas ahead of winter, the best and only way to reduce the eas reliance on russian energy. $45.00 b sam correspond stay 15 percent cut in our usual gas consumption, b, b, in the beginning of august and the end of march. that's why we have pointed to this percentage as the target or member states should stay forward. russia is said to further reduce supplies through the north stream pipelines, blaming a technical fault at one of the stations,

something even ministers dispute of the short national game. as of today, there is no solution to the ongoing equipment issues at the point here. they are compress the station. if there is no solution whatsoever yet, seems as saying nothing. they are trying to find solutions, but there are none, but come out as the west and russia exchange economic blows in response to russia's war in ukraine. european leaders say moscow is not a trustworthy partner. the width is coming ah, and we don't know how called it will be, but what we know for sure that would be in the will continue to play his so don't the games her in misusing and blake mailing her by ha, ha gar. supplies like so. you, grace president, one of the major lensky says, europe is already at war with russia just on a different front i, he and his bride. this is done by russia on purpose to make it as difficult as

possible for europeans to prepare for winter. and this is an open gas war that russia is waging against the united europe. this is precisely how it should be perceived. and they don't cable happen to the people or how they will suffer from hunger g to the blockading of ports or from winter cold. and poverty, or from occupation. these are just different forms of terror yet. wellness does that. nearly half of all the gas europe needs it comes from russia. the supply is now down to our relative trick all come winter if european countries don't have enough supply stored up in time. it means certainly almost, it will be a struggle to heat homes and power cities. abdullah show me, i'll do 0 brussels last week. the european commission proposed a 15 percent reduction in gas use for all member states and suggested it might have to make those cuts obligatory. well, many countries resisted that. so the agreement just reached in brussels is a compromise with

a voluntary cut of 15 percent from august to march. the agreement includes opt out so that countries can cut less states that are heavily reliant on gas for electricity can avoid the reductions on it's the same for countries exporting 90 percent of the gas capacity to other ease states. you official said hungry was the only member state that opposed the gast reduction agreement. although it brenner is the executive editor for operations at energy intelligence, he says, europe is hoping for the best, but preparing for the worst. then a best case scenario where we have a warm winter, a short winter. this plan is really never put into full effect. and that would be, you know, there's not an emergency declared where these cuts become more mandatory under that scenario. you know, certainly be, comes out of the winter with still having some gas in storage and without significant disruption to, to things like heating were or need to switch to switch fuel from gas to,

to fuel oil. things like that. now under worst case scenario, where we do have a colder winter where it does last for longer, certainly disruptions are, are greater. but you know, they're preparing for this by, by activating plans to, like i said, switch from gas to fuel oil. they're making sure coal plants are available, potentially extending the life of nuclear plants. so those plans are in place, but it's certainly look like a much more draconian cut through the winter than, than we might see. other was addressing costs, was one of the major, talking points for the diplomats that were to go shooting this agreement, whether you were impacted by russian gas flows or not. the idea was by cutting down on our usage. we would then have more gas and it would stabilize. right? that would take away this kind of the weapon is ation of gas that russia has been, has been forcing on the you. but the issue is, is that, you know, beyond that, i think that will see that prices are incredibly high,

and they're simply going to be incredibly high, one way or the other. what we're looking for at best stabilization, not necessarily drawing them down to historical warms that we would have seen a year ago. but we also have to think the gas is just one of the energy commodities that russia sells to the world. i mean, in the grand scheme of things, oil and oil prices are at incredible highs as well as refined fuels, and those prices are incredible highs as well. so yes, russia probably receiving less revenue overall, but from the gas side of things. but i would say that it still has ample revenues coming in from these other commodity. russia has loans to more mythical strikes when ukraine's black sea region rockets hit the coastal village of poker. presidents vote him as lensky says, it's a residential area with no military presence. the eastern city of keith was also targeted from hendrick, has more now from keith. the russian defense industry says it has destroyed a immunization and missile the bows in the southern blacks. the port city of

nikolai, or it says it also destroyed port infrastructure in that case, and that was just one in a series of early tuesday morning, strikes by russian forces in the eastern crane town of harkey. a gas pipeline was hit that will leave thousands of people out of power. that is with the mayor there says, and also in odessa, in the region of a t s, a small town of toko was struck. that is, according to the president of ukraine american landscape. who posted video said that only the residential areas were struck there and he says they were no military targets. or despite those missile strikes, joins center to monitor ukraine drain exports is set to open the stumble tomorrow. it's also ukraine, russia, turkey on the united nations, signed a great deal last week, or for will have representatives at the center monitoring the operation. the ukrainian government says it hopes to resume green exports this week. the 1st time

since the war began in february. now the newly appointed chief of moscow space agency says russia will quit the international space station after 2024 years. or a soft said its focus will shift to building its own station. but nasa says it hasn't been informed about the move in russia does quit, the, i assess, it would be the end of an era of space diplomacy. the us and russia have worked side by side on the station since it went into orbit in 1998. because as you know, we're working within the framework of international cooperation on the international space station. of course, we will fill all our obligations to our partners, but the decision to leave after 2024 has been taken. i think that by that time we will begin to follow russian orbital station i believe or to the future of russian man space travel. first of all should be based on a balanced and systematic scientific program. the role chow is a format,

nasa astronaut and international space station commander. he says, russia may not follow through on the announcement. it's nice to think that they're going to build their own the space station, but frankly, they don't have the money for it. they don't have the budget. and even back when we began the asset program with russia fully financed by the us, it still took them 7 years to develop and build their core module and put it into orbit. so, you know, i don't think they're going to get a space station up there in a couple of years. and even if they had the money, it would take a lot longer. so if they're willing to walk away from their human spaceflight program, then build with the i assess, but frankly, i don't think they're ready to do that. it's unfortunate that the politics on the ground have now reached up into space before the i assess was the one common ground that we had where, you know, it was in everyone's interest that it worked. and we never neither side use the,

i assess for these kinds of political posturing for events on the ground. so we've seen that change 1st with dmitri regoza and, and now and a softer level, maybe with, with the new director. but nonetheless, saying publicly that the intend to quit the i assess without notifying nasa makes this and especially kind of a hollow gives it a hollow ring. and you know, it's, it's a, it's going to be a little less comfortable, of course, but frankly, everybody on board and everyone on the ground working on this program, they're all very professional. and i think everything's going to keep working fine without any kind of technical glitches. so the only things that could happen, you know, negatively, would be if russia really does pull out if they do, than the ice. this program is over and you know, frankly, the russians will have nowhere to go in space. israeli forces have rated the palestinian village of car wet bunny, her son, and the occupied westbank. they demolished the homes of 2 palestinians who had been

you're watching out a reminder of our main headlines now. you member states have reached a compromise deal when making emergency guest cuts this winter. europe is facing an energy crisis as the blushing of gas from reducing supplies from north stream one pipeline to 20 percent of capacity. and the head of moscow space agency, as russia will quit the international space station up to 2020 for the reverse office. and it's focused on shift to building its own station enough process. it hasn't been informed about the move israeli forces have rated the student village of car west on the hudson and occupied the west bank. they demolished the homes of 2 palestinians. we've been charged with killing a god in april. and the illegal is where the settlement r e l. the international monetary fund has released its report on the global economy and it looks both gloomy and uncertain. the worn ukraine hire global energy

and food prices. economic downturns in china and russia are just some of the factors that have put the brakes on the wells, recovery from the pandemic. in the m. f. projects that a global economic growth will slow to just at 3.2 percent this year. higher food and energy prices and supply chain bottlenecks are expected to push inflation up to 8.3 percent higher than previously projected in the world of 70 leading economies. the i m f says the probability of a recession is now estimated to be nearly 15 percent. that's 4 times higher than usual. releasing the report in washington, d. c, the i m s. so the outlook is bad, but that there are measures countries can take to mitigate the worst impacts. the alt look is darkened significantly since april. the world may soon be teetering on the edge of a global recession. only 2 years after the last one multilateral cooperation will be key in many areas from climate physician and pandemic preparedness to food

security, and that distress amid great challenge and strive, strengthening cooperation remains the best way to improve economy prospects fall and mitigate the risk of g. o economy fragmentation, she harbor tansy has more on this now from washington dc. the i'm of those project that world wide inflation will reach pre pandemic levels by the end of 2024. so i mean that, that might be some cause for hope that the problem with this world economic outlook is, yeah, they, they come up with all those headline figures, notably 3.2 percent growth in 2022 for the global economy, but almost immediately off towards in the next paragraph, they add the risks to, to that outlook, or overwhelmingly tilted the downside. they immediately undermined that outlook and say that if the warrant ukraine leads to a sudden stop of european gas import. russia. if inflation is, is hard to bring down. if there are further cobra lock downs,

if tightening monetary policy from central banks leads to enormous problems in emerging markets and particular balance of payments issues and so on, that actually their focus is even worse. in fact, they say it's a plausible alternative scenario in which the risk more risks materialize. and in fact, them 2022 growth goes out of 2.6 percent. and 2023 growth goes up to 2 percent. so it's even grimma, and actually the figures you mentioned because we're saying these are our headline figures. but in fact, if you were to white global corporation, looking to red little global corporation research from the, from the west and russia at the very least, their suggestion is, this could be actually a lot worse. protests have been hell, that's hard, me and mars embassy and ty, capital, bangkok, they're condemning the execution of full pro democracy activists. will forward teams of helping us if any resistance movement that is for the military since last year's qu executions have widespread condemnation from neighboring countries. us

he said the executions were not because the military had any particular case against the men involved. they'd been given every opportunity to prove their innocence in a court of law. many people would dispute that given that these were charles that took place on the military rule by a military court. and in secret you would have ja janice. we knew that there may be criticism and objections when the death penalties were handed down and conducted in accordance with domestic law. however, we did it for reasons of domestic stability for the rule of law and order and for security guardian. it was not personal like the opposition groups of said, it was done legally. but there has been reaction on the streets of mamma with flash mobs expressing their anger and calling her revenge on the concern here. the opponents of the coo and the military, both seemed deeply entrenched in the further along discount that goes more bloody good schools have reopened in sri lanka,
