lucky those coming out last crossed the lines of no, no man's land were one of the few to gain access to this in battle town. they take us to their basement, where we find others sheltering from the shelf. please about 2 weeks now or 3 days . journey devastated buildings cornell, a grim reminder that the russians were here. ah, help us democrat. nancy pelosi touches down in taiwan despite beijing warning that washington will pay the price for a visit. chinese says it will. it's military will carry out targeted actions around the island. ah, no, i'm sorry. i'm noisy in london, you're watching algae 0 also coming up with the program. warnings americans could be targeted off to the u. s. kills alco. hi denita

a minute. a watery on the balcony. of a house in the house of campbell and another 2 months of peace and war tone. yemen truce is extended hours before it was due to expire. ah, defying warnings from china on the advice of our own government. us how speak and nancy pelosi is in taiwan. she is the highest ranking american official to visit the territory in 25 years, but the trip has not been officially backed by president joe biden. as she touched down in taipei pelosi tweeted, the visits owners, the united states on waiver and commitment to supporting ty ones, vibrant democracy. and she said america, solidarity with taiwan is more important than ever as the well faces a choice between autocracy and democracy. she's expected to meet ty, once president on wednesday, she received

a warm welcome in taiwan. this is its tallest building, type pay one i one which was used to display a message to the house beaker and her country. china and russia have warned us that policies visit is provocative and destabilizing by aging. views taiwan, as a breakaway province, says it will launch targeted military actions around the island. ahmed vehicles in patrolling the port city of young men across the straight before pelosi arrived in taipei badge and condemned condemned of is it as a serious violation of the one china principle, which is going to have a severe impact on diplomatic relations? the relationship between china and taiwan is complex. over the centuries, the island has been self administered, colonized by the netherlands and ruled by china and japan. after world war 2, china again took control of it. but taiwan officially known as the republic of china argued it was never part of the people's republic of china or established by mouth in 1971, the united nations that it would only recognize the p. r. c is representing china,

effectively expelling taiwan. subsequently, many countries including the u. s. and japan's which that diplomatic recognition from the r o c to the p r c. since then it's i in, when became taiwan president, a more countries of cot ties with it. and subsequently received chinese investment and loans. now, only 14 sovereign states have full diplomatic relations with taiwan. there mainly in the caribbean, central american and pacific olive nations, as well as the holy see. the white house is distanced itself from the visit, but to also stress that it does not violate the one china policy. shebra tansy has more reaction from that now in washington. messages this has nothing really necessarily do with us. nancy pelosi is, is the speaker of the house. it's a separate wing for the government and for the congress, not the executive. they have no say is a message in what pelosi does,

but they talk about the historic or precedents because newt gingrich, as well as we will reported, did visits under when bill clinton was was president. and they said, look, this is perfectly normal. doesn't suggest any if there's continuity, there is a suggestion, you know the speak of houses before and other speakers visiting, visiting now the us says it's retains and that's, that was in the end though, very much of these messages. there's been no change of policy. the u. s. does not support taiwanese independence. the one china policy is to the place. let me be clear. the speakers visit is totally consistent with our long standing one china policy. we've been very clear that nothing has changed about i want child policy, which is guided course by the taiwan relations act. 3 joint us p r. c communications. 6 assurances. we said that we oppose any unilateral changes to the status quo from either side. we said we do not support taiwan independence and we

did as i said again yesterday that we expect cross street 10 differences to be resolved by peaceful means. coby went on to say that the b u. s. does not seek a crisis. it will not engage in what it called sabre rattling it was pointed out though that the u. s. does currently have 4 warships now stationed in the region, but koby seem to scoff at that. there is that ambiguity actually as to when whatever response is being found by aging using the military, using the pap, potentially the supplement of the island in some way. when that will begin, so that, that is something that's gonna be really interesting to watch in the coming out. of course, china had threatened a military response and i've been reports of chinese jets crossing the taiwan strait ahead of nancy pelosi is arrival. so if you go, pardon, is the international editor of taiwan class and says taiwan is exercising caution. this kind of activity, if it is china, just sending warplanes into what you call the air defense identification zone, the

a d i z. so that's an airspace that taiwan monitors is quite predictable. china does said every time it feels like taiwan has displeased it. and often that displeasure comes from delegations for a delegations visiting or ty, want, exerting itself on the international stage, or tie one at any point exerting its sovereignty. and, you know, making it clear that it doesn't believe it is part of china. now the question is, will those plans go further into that? 80 i z and ha, that 80 are depends identification zone into bonafide tie one airspace then that will set a precedent and that will very clearly send a message. i mean, there are questions about whether they would even dare as fly over a tie, one soil, and that's the case then that's definitely rocking up tensions. and maybe you leading to some kind of conflict because every time china sense those planes over it, even if it isn't on time one air space, it's high ones. military scrambled there. fighter jets, to try and monitor the activity if not trying to st. await china from going any

further. so you know, that kind of activity is being very closely watch militarily. in fact, taiwan says it's increase its level of military alertness and defending itself not only in its aerospace in its waters on land. and it is taking those visits with much caution, especially given china's very angry rhetoric and aggressive threats towards taiwan . ah, usa appointment is one. the killing of all kind is lead a might prompt group supporters to target u. s. facilities or citizens. i mean, i was a while he was reportedly struck by to hell fine missiles while standing on a balcony in central campbell on sunday. he was joe biden improved the position, drawing straight last week after months of planning. official say no one else was killed or wounded in the attack. confirming the strike biden said justice had been

delivered to the man who help coordinate the 911 attacks which killed almost 3000 people. when i ended our military mission of cancer, almost a year ago, i made a decision that after 20 years of war, the united states no longer needed thousands of boots on the ground in afghanistan to protect america from tours receipt to do us harm. i made a promise to the american people that we continue to conduct effective counter terrorism operations in afghanistan and beyond. we've done just that. this is where the strike happened shortly after dawn on sunday. it set the heart of what was cobbles, diplomatic districts at one time. busy neighbourhood with our several embassies though some have suspended operations. after the us led coalition withdrew from afghanistan last year out there. as ali latifah has more from the afghan capital cobble. we're here in the neighbourhood where i'm and i was, i was, he was allegedly killed. and as you can see, this is

a perfectly residential area. there's travel agencies, there's grocery stores, there's banks. all of these things are leading to increasing worry among us who feel that the outcry the leader was being housed in a perfectly residential urban center of the city. and at the same time, the tall barn is upset that a year after their occupation ended the u. s a still conducting drone strides on what they consider to be sovereign novel on territory or below. so worry is an afghan journalist who is forced to leave the country one the taliban took power again. he believes as little doubt and also watery was under the protection of some members of the taliban. to be honest with you, this is a major shaw. the fact of the feel safe in the heart of cobbled city knowing that the american intelligence and other western intelligence agencies not only had a presence in these areas, but the hard wealth of knowledge. and i would like to think an expensive network

off informants and adverse denied it, but they were literally forced to basically accept one. president biden announced the news and it sort of shows you the relationship between a story. it's ideological, and it's also generation of there's been many intra marriages, so i am. so i've been in the region since this. so this is a major role for all about and their credibility as the the factors of united states continue making about $5000000000.00 worth of arm sells to saudi arabia and the united arab emirates. the u. s. state department has approve that potential sale of patriot missiles and related equipment to saudi arabia and a deal valued at $3000000000.00. meanwhile, the possible sale of just of a $2000000000.00 worth of area defense system itself for the u. e. has also been

approved. the u. s. has said that it will continue to support the defense capabilities of its allies in the middle east. meanwhile, yelman's warring parties have agreed to extend a 4 month truce for further 2 months hours before it was due to expire. united nations and boise and set the truce between the government and who thes will now last until october, 2nd, the renewal announcement came out of the animosity delegation completed 3 days of talks with the fees and the capital. some president biden says it's an important step, but it's not enough. in the long run, christian salumi has more now from the united nations. the 2 month extension of yeoman's truce is being welcomed by members of the un security council and the humanitarian community who point out the positive impact it's had since it was 1st adopted back in april, reducing the number of casualties. the longest period of calm and 7 years, and i had other positive impacts as well, allowing fuel to get into the country and displace people to return to their homes

. but there are sticking points that remain. they want to get more supplies into the country and they need to work out how to pay civil servants. and one major sticking point has been re opening roads, particularly around the city of ties, which is controlled primarily by the government. but who the align militia seem to be stopping access, getting in? so all of this comes also with some worrying signs in the country. the organization save the children, points out that the last week of july was one of the bloodiest in years, a total of some $65.00 civilian casualties. they were killed in that time. some $38.00 of them were children. so all of this is raising concerns and putting pressure on the process going forward. but the un special envoy for yemen. hans greenberg says that the parties have agreed to intensify their negotiations going

forward in an attempt to reach a more permanent political solution. washing out as you lie from london, still has brushes, top court designates ukraine's as a regiment. a terrorist group captured soldiers facing much longer sentences and homeowners, paying for solar power or big business is making major changes. we look at who should be carrying a cost for green awhile. ah . hello, we got some really nasty weather pushing across southam, parts of australia at the moment. so deep area of low pressure swirling through very active weather system. this, this cold front that's rattling through the byte did bring some violent winds destructive winds into perth, southern parts of w way, some of these areas seeing their strong disgust on record. so augustus, high,

230 kilometers per hour is causing problems. lot ways as well. in excess of 10 meters in place is now that where to weather that windy weather will continue to drive its way further eastward, south australia now in the path. and that will gradually fade its way into victoria western parts of victoria, grassy seeing some very wet, very windy weather as we go through widened stay come thursday, it does sweep through. next system starts to push in northeast and parts of victoria could see some flooding. southern parts southeast in parts of new south was also seeing some very, very heavy, right. as you make her way to the latter part of the week, a nasty we can shoot, thaw. he has a set warning force from perth to melbourne. ahead of that, it's lottie. dry for newsheel a bit wet or whether we'll make his way in here for the weekend. got some wet weather to pushing across the korean peninsula. we some heavy down pools, grassy pushing into a good part of japan. ah,

no place. and so i gone with say the press retreated with the car about a media hub and vital vantage point. during the 1st truly televised war from the roof, we could see evacuation at the american embassy where the most iconic images of the conflict in vietnam were transmitted. to the world, this was the front row sheet to the final stages of the war, saigon, caravel war hotels. on l. j. 0 o. ah, watching al jazeera life in the main stories now us how speak and nancy pelosi is

arrives in taiwan against the advice of our own government. china's want of visit is provocative and destabilizing says launch targeted military actions around the u . s. state department is one of the killing of al qaeda's leader may prompt the group supporters to target us facilities or citizens. a melissa was reported to be struck by 2 hellfire missiles while standing on the balcony of the house in central cobble on sunday. and yeoman's warring parties have agreed to extend a 4 month truce for further 2 months hours before it was due to expire. present biden's as the agreement between the government and the who fees is an important step, but not enough in the long run. but also falling developments in ukraine where russian forces have said they killed up to a $250.00 foreign fighters in strikes on the southern city of mich alive, grain hasn't responded to this, but it's regionally. emergency service did share footage of damage,

damaged oil storage tank as and workers clearing up after the strike on tuesday. says a multiple launch rockets system was used to destroy a university dormitory, as well as several buildings and shops. the cities governor says only one person was injured. no deaths have been reported. meanwhile, russia supreme court has designated ukraine's as of regiment a terrorist group. many of its fighters were captured by russia when the city of mario pole fell in. may. the volunteer forces far right and ultra nationalist roots became one of the most prominent military units fighting russian troops in the east . moscow is often referred to the regiment to support its claim that ukraine is controlled by so called fascists and relatives of other fighters detained in russia, calling on international groups to do more to secure their release gras them. okay . all nice. so we have a lot of questions for the un and red cross and there have been 0 answers from them . i am witness incomplete in action on their behalf or refusal to fulfill their

responsibilities. that's all i can say for now, the system of which 1st cargo ships leaving acquaintance. russia invaded more than 5 months ago has been cited off the coast of turkey is expected to dock that for inspection on wednesday before heading to lebanon. vessel which is carrying tons of grain is being monitored by the joint coordination center in istanbul, turkey at turkish, russian, ukrainian, and the united nations doll for all there is part of the deal sign last month. ship left, the ukrainian ports of odessa on monday. more are expected as long as the safe passage agreement holds. we very much hope that there will be movement to morrow. oh, how many ships will move? we'll have to wait and see. oh, oh, once we ident, once the ship is identified, we will know the destination. i mean, these are, you know, these are, i think there were about 270, ships of so that were in 3 different rush,

3 different ukrainian, or ports of these have been sitting in port for a long time with cargo, you know, with contract signs, ready to go so news from 9 cherry, an country is ramping up efforts to finish the construction of a pipeline that will deliver it gas to europe. but and also china triplets reserves as prices in demand for gas surge because the conflicts in ukraine from port r court, i'm at interest reports. ah, no, julia is a country in the right. it's trans sahara gas pipeline does have been on hold for decades, is now active africa. the biggest oil producer wants to caching on rising gas prices as europe looks to reduce relies on energy from russia. where in the process of building the pipeline, a gas pipeline from here to julia targeting european market. we are also building a pipeline from the west africa gas pipeline,

to morocco also target in europe. so what the, what the russia and ukraine crisis as created each additional market power gas. he says nigeria can make up for supply shortfalls for many european countries, but would need more of the investment to speed up delivery. global prices of gas have stored in the wake of the war in ukraine with europe accusing russia of wages, and he cannot make war. nigerian officials say many european investors have been pulling out investments in fossil fuels, yet slowly coming back. the country has proven reserves of 206 trillion cubic feet of gas. now it's aiming to triple that in ages. as interesting, crude oil is waiting for decades. oil companies operating here treated gases and losers tapping or flaring it. as the rest of the world struggles with high prizes

and shortages nigeria bunch 30 percent of his gas every year. i suppose it could be capitalizing on developed economist alternatives to russian supplies. industry analysts say the current global gas supply challenges on opportunity to grow the sector. i think we should be talking a lot more about, you know, increase the, the l m g l and your rate is that we, i, you know, done really talking about the pipes that seems to be we'll go make full cost on. but the biggest challenge for nigeria is funding. it's hoping the conflict into crime could give many countries a reason to rethink that precedent. guess as a transition fuel to clean energy? mchugh, trees, algebra, porter, good nigeria, rocky politician. tendrils. heather is reportedly told his support has to withdraw from the rocks parliament and continue that protest outside. thousands of them.

stone, the complex and fact that on saturday, i have been occupying it ever since protesting against some of the country's leaders said there had called on owner rockies to join what he considered as a revolution. but opponents has said the parliament takeover is a crew and counter protest will also held in the city. the on restful is months of political deadlock which has prevented the formation of a new government dosage of bar has been speaking to some of the people inside parliament, confusion and chaos. as these demonstrators have been told, they have another 72 hours for evacuation. this building, but many of whom we spoke to say they're not going anywhere with the statement was issued by the aides. and we'll cover all southern who said, although the demonstrations to continue, they should leave this building. that's most of the people we've spoken to here. say they're not going anywhere until they've achieved their goals. the officer walker, i got a balkan called you to walker. i heard about the evacuation order and we will leave at that point and camp outside the parliament noted, looked at all saw others,

demands been fulfilled, yet it is like the fall on deaf ears. no answer. they have lost the right path because they are corrupt and sad. nothing of the demands have been fulfilled, and we all stink, and we will not move. we are here until all demands on met. it's not the demands of looked at us sudden, but these demands of the demands of all iraq is. i don't know. i'm oh, the question now is, will the next have the power? is me enough time for the various vulnerable factions to get together and try to come out with some kind of re resolution to this ongoing political crisis. what is clear is that the situation continues to be as unpredictable and 10 as it has been over the past few days. now a funeral has been l for a palestinian teenager killed in jeanine in the occupied westbank. 17 year old that our co freeney was shot dead on monday in violence with israeli forces. they've been near daily rides across the occupied west bank and recent weeks,

a local leader of the palestinian islamic jihad who was arrested during the late night. right on monday. the u. s. justice department is finding a lawsuit seeking to protect abortion access in the state of idaho is the biden administration's 1st litigation since the supreme court struck down. legal guarantees for the procedure in june suit seeks to compel a conservative western state to provide abortions to women experiencing medical emergencies. we promised that the justice department would work tirelessly protect and advanced reproductive freedom. that is what we are doing. and that is what we will continue to do. we will use every tool at our disposal to ensure that pregnant women get the emergency medical treatment to which they are entitled under federal law. and we will closely scrutinized state abortion laws to ensure that they comply with federal law. meanwhile, voters in the usa of kansas,

a deciding whether the states constitution should continue protecting the right to terminate a pregnancy. kansas is the 1st 8 to vote on reproductive rights. as they see supreme court overturned the roe v wade decision. voters are being asked whether to they want to overturn a 2019 state ruling which establish the right or portion is steeply conservative state currently allows abortion up to 22 weeks of pregnancy. a simple majority could see that right removed, kansas is a mentally approach or his state, like most americans, most candidates or a basic right to abortion access. but with certain limitations that tend to be popular nationwide as well. we're not too different or too much more conservative than the nation overall in that picture. at least 37 people in our own who have died and devastating flooding in the usa, of kentucky or than 400 residence has been lifted from that remote mountain

communities. over the past few days, hundreds more still unaccounted for. following some of the work flooding in the states history, weather conditions of continuing to hamper rescue efforts with a new reign, predicted for or fire crews battling the largest while foreign california this year . and i found 2 bodies in of bun town, car forensic investigators 50 through deborah from the vehicle and collected the remains for identification. the mckinney fire and the other states board with oregon dropped it on friday. and as for more than 2000 people to leave their homes and in canada, people in british columbia have been told to leave their homes because of an out of control wildfire. their several planes and helicopters have been dispatched to tackle this fire the residence of 25 hundreds have been told to leave, and more than 350 have been put on alert. reco, temperatures, and dry conditions have fueled fires in the province was governments around the world consider the impact of climate change on their populations and economies.

environmentalist questioning, who should bear the baker, but when it comes to protecting the planets, the u. n. is unveiled its guidance for how individuals can do more than any barker reports from london. pressure is mounting on governments and big businesses to take greater responsibility in the hope of lasting change. so the hot water cylinder is in the, in the leafy london suburb, katherine mysteries invested heavily in tackling climate change on the roof, installing a solar panel on the roof of her home providing hot water in the summer months. they've also put extra installation upstairs, have chosen to pay more for renewable energy. oh, and they drive it electric car, a commitment to the planet beyond the reach of money. this really makes me angry because people don't have enough money to do this on their own. and even for us, it, you know, it's been a question of doing it in stages. and a 100 years ago they dug up the streets to put in gas pipes for everybody. it was

a national project. why aren't we doing the same? this time we could sink ground sauce heat pump, a wells into the ground and heat whole neighbourhood. but that just doesn't seem to be at joined up thinking. there's no denying that our lifestyles have an impact on the planet with private households grating around 2 thirds of global emissions with food, energy, and transport, contribution around 20 percent of lifestyle emissions. all of that, of course, means that what we do has an impact. i take the lead. united nations is so convinced of our ability to make a difference. it's launched a campaign called individual action with things we can do today, along with an app to monitor our environmental impact in the same way. we watch our health. but the high cost of some of these solutions, solar panels and electric cars, limit what individuals can do money from across this river that produce the problem . environmentalists are urging governments and big business to shoulda more

responsibility than what we saw with covered. for instance, all over the world was that if government certainly people were fantastically good at responding to it's not a problem with the people. it's very often a problem with the politicians who can't actually take their responsibility of crating their clear framework in which people know what's expected of them and can then do what's expected of them. the u. k. the government's promising to harness the countries powerful financial sector in the transition to net 0 carbon emissions by 2050. while e u wide legislation, such as the decision to standardize mobile charging ports, is underpinned by a need to come thousands of tons of e waste. and many of the big oil companies, and now re branded as energy companies with the likes of shell promising to become fully net 0 within 30 years. this is oil giant, b p recorded its biggest profit in 14 years on choosing or while energy bills. so

there's no denying that environmental wheels are in motion, but as a summer of alarming weather continues for the scientists who been warning about climate change for decades, it can't happen soon enough. me palka, al jazeera london as more everything we're covering right here, a round up of all of our top stories better, and also get life streaming access as well as their dot com. ah, let's just take another look at the main stories this our define warnings from china and against the advice of our own government. us how speak a nancy pelosi is in taiwan. she is the highest ranking american official to visit the territory in 25 years. the trip had not been bags 5 president joe biden pelosi says, our visit to honors the united states unwavering, quick commitment to supporting taiwanda vibrant democracy. she's express.
