stan, i'm very good, but i'm sure your beds may be comfortable right now, but not for long. you will soon feel the same here. we feel every day from today's home calling, then uganda, 3 women grapple with the impact of the front line active this year. future children on a j 0 lou. this is al jazeera. ah, you're watching the news. our live from headquarters in ohio, jedi and abigail coming up in the next 60 minutes, kenya on a knife edge. the results of the closely fought presidential race are expected to be announced soon. beijing says it's ready to smash any for an intervention as us politicians visit, ty paid. wow. one year after the taliban takeover

in afghanistan, we look at what lies ahead for a country facing an economic and humanitarian crisis. oh morning the dead funerals are held for some of the 41 victims of a fire at a church in egypt. and in sport, we've got tad, it's from canada and golf in memphis plus we're here from antonio conti and thomas to go following a fiery encounter in the primary mm . so we begin this news hour in kenya. that's where the results of last week's presidential election are expected to be announced within hours. the count of ballots has been slow and the race extremely tight as voters wait for results, public frustration and concern is growing in a country with

a history of political violence. unofficial results reported in kenyan media, so deputy president william, brutal and veteran opposition leader right, loads are neck and neck. they're competing to replace the outgoing leader who are kenyata, who's served his limit of 2 terms as president. we have to correspondence keeping across all developments. in a few minutes we'll be speaking to herriman casa, who's in the west of the country. but 1st, let's bring in malcolm. well, joining us from the capital nairobi to tell us what the latest is on the official counts, malcolm were about to find out what the final result is. the electoral commission is expected to announce any time now, but what we can say for sure is that it's been a very close race and the tally that has been done over the last 6 days in kenyans voted by the electoral commission and tallies done by media houses and others some moment shown right over dinner in the lead others. so william router and the lead

depending on which order they've counted, the constituencies in and publication of that data along with a flurry of missed information on social media is lead support. as of both of these candidates, the believe that their candidate is about to be announcing the winner. now if the actual commission says that neither of the 2 front runners got more than 50 percent plus one votes, then that means those 2 front runners will have to go into a run off. that meant to happen within a matter of weeks. on the other hand, if it announces that one of them does pass that threshold of 50 percent plus one votes, they will be announced the winner. but if we do have a winner, it's expected that the margin of victory will be narrow. in a narrow margin, increases the chance of a court challenge 5 years ago in the last election. the supreme court a know the election results, and any plaintiffs have just one week to file the challenge in the see pm cool off

to was going to be announced here today for malcolm. we'll come back to you as and when we get those results for the time being. thank you so much. let's cross to her . i'm a toss a who's joining us now from the west of the country. so howard canyons are reacting to to be really drawn out process harris. oh, there is excitement anxiety. yeah, this is a stronghold and this is the 1st time he ran to the presidency for people. yeah, this connection is close enough. this i ever had bought independence from britain in 1915. no one is a by mid hang of those come from this part of the country. they hold the line that didn't go, wouldn't this image did they say they thought neglected for? yeah, i didn't got is problem that. no, it's private. if you about the evil of med 10 years since 1963 have been from that you who you tried the dominant tribes and the kind of the bayfield is now the none . right. when they all right, no did go ahead to have luck like president would have thing,

i'd say 2018 visit to talk to see some developments in west virginia that roads being both new buildings going up to the school to find a home for some of them all we're really worried that data alive and without going president would have been made staying in it's not the united legacy of corruption and i was handled economy. thank you so much. her matessa reporting from the west of can you a court on me and mar, has convicted, ousted leader, ang, santucci, and more corruption cases. adding 6 years to her prison sentence, the chargers related to accusations that she was building a home with money from charitable donations. so she has already been convicted in connection with other minor offenses. let's bring and tony chang, he's joining us from bangkok. so a tony it tell us more about the verdict than the consequences of that verdict.

or we just heard in the last couple of minutes. so the court and out the door has sentence uncensored to, to another 6 years in detention. that's on top of the 11 years. she was already facing her, 2 years had been taken off by the military in terms of lenient see, but at 77 years old. this really takes uncensored she out of the political picture for quite some time to come and, and i think this is what everyone was expecting. she's facing in total 19 cases for arranger of charges, including the ones to day for corruption, the or sewing in the court. today in napa door, they heard case they have evidence in a case which has been brought against her for misuse of a state helicopter. there have been cases about the misuse of walkie talkies. i really, i think what we're seeing here is a continuation of the process which we've seen since the coo of the military who have just thrown charges against her. trying to remove her. they know that if a,

in an electoral stand up, she would defeat them again. they have promised elections by the autumn of 2023. we've heard from men on lie the senior general in charge of the military, gunter, or that he will go ahead with that in the last couple of weeks. if uncensored she was to remain in the political sphere at that stage, it would be a very difficult obstacle to come. so what this does is remove her further and further away her. there are still several more cases she'll need to face in the coming weeks. were they were hearing more evidence today, but i think today's charges are really show that she, the military intention is to keep her out of the picture completely. or we understand in the last couple of weeks she has been removed to a new place of detention. but she is a very isolation these places she, we understand in the last couple of days when she came to court, she hadn't even heard of the execution of for political activists in the last

couple of weeks or so. she is clearly in a news blackout, and i think that is where the military want her to remain. thank you so much. tony chang for that update from bangkok, china's defense ministry says beijing is ready to smash any foreign interference. it's also called the u. s. saboteurs in response to an american congressional delegation visiting taipei. beijing carried out more live fire military exercises near the island on monday. it says the trip to taiwan by american politicians exposes the u. s as a spoiler of peace and stability in the taiwan straits. news, hey, you mit he bubble drove alejandro joshua for the delegation. led by us senator markley has insisted on visiting a tie one region of china in disregard of china's opposition. this blatantly violates the one china principal. it violates china's sovereignty and territorial integrity. and since erroneous signals are going to tie one independent separatists

forces, taiwan says one be deterred by china as response to visits by 4 in political figures . i said indians and simply until their visit this time is of great significance because the chinese military exercises to deter us congressman from visiting taiwan . there is it also proves that china cannot stop politicians from any country to visit taiwan. and it also conveys an important message that the american people stand with the taiwanese people. journalist, patrick, foul cars, more from beijing, the lot of people might have expected would happen. the eastern thing to come on has now announced a new round of drills around the taiwan strait. that announcement was accompanied by some pretty forceful language as well, with a military saying that it would resolutely smash any foreign interference. and it also reiterated a point that was made by the chinese embassy in washington, which was to say that the visit expose the true face of the u. s. as a troublemaker and sabbath of peace and stability in the taiwan strait. we don't

know an awful lot about the nature of this round of combat drills or how long it all might last. but it is worth noting that the exercises, which were extended in the wake of nancy pelosi, his visits had toned down in recent days. but they hadn't ceased altogether, and ty wants defense ministry said the 11 chinese that crawford crossed over into his defence. on sunday, the foreman's re here invasion was also question about the visit earlier and spoke bus 11 been reiterated. the one china principal was the political foundation of ties between china, the us and the developments of bilateral relations. the urge washington to stop by jing or hollowing out the one china principal. you also accuse some us politicians of colluding with taiwanese separatists and as attempts to challenge the one china principal, he said that they were doomed to fail and that they were overestimating themselves . plenty, morehead, on the algebra news hour, including the prime minister and remoting promises

to turn india into a developed country and the next 25 years. as it celebrates 75 years of independence and waiting for a reunion that may never come. families search for those missing since russia invaded ukraine later and for a career highlight for a tennis veteran, claiming his 1st masters fixture, we ah, but 1st it's one year since the taliban reach a control of a gun, the sun, the economy has collapsed. women have been stripped off their rights and millions of people don't know where their next meal is coming from. some i've been job age reports from couple on the taliban viewer. empower. and what lies ahead, i resumed interviewing is done. the

musician and driver, after has lived in the refugee camps and his childhood. he's among the more than 3000000 people displaced in earnest on market, among care of the whole before it was good. but now life just passes us by before we could find some food for our children. but the change in government means there is no work now. a year ago, tens of thousands of people headed for the voters. as provinces fell to the taliban, many in cupboard rushed to the airport. as the rest of the government collapsed. after taking refuge abroad a shotgun, he denied that he escaped the suitcases full of cash. more than 100000 people left during the abrupt withdrawal of foreign forces. the economy collapsed and the u. s . for billions of dollars of foreign reserves. the u. s. nato alliance spent an estimated $300000000.00 a day every day for 2 decades. but basic such as roads, schools, hospitals, are either non existent or in poor shape since the taliban took over,

that money has stopped coming in. and thousands of professionals have less. human rights watch has accused a dollar bond of a long list of abuses, restricting the rights of women and girls, suppressing media feed him and detaining, torturing and executing critics and perceived opponents. all allegations the taliban denies. didn't motivate them. government activities in some other areas, things a good were trying to improve. but we should also take into account the problems of the corona virus, the suspension of foreign aid, the freezing of money, the problems in banking, drought. all these together had increased the problems for the people of afghanistan. for those who left life not easy, more than half the 20000 enough, gone to reach the u. k. are still in temporary accommodation as a lack of prospects abroad, and many 5th, harrison and the threat of detention cut over the hump of a true. i lost everything, including my restaurant, atlanta go to europe, so i went to turkey. unfortunately,

they captured us and deported us to iran. thank god. now we are in our home at night. we'll never go anywhere else. in a year, security is improved, but poverty and desperation have increased in my little above 6 international recognition. there are some concessions. it seems unwilling to make and will bring in a sama. he's joining us from cowboy, also a sama, a nation grappling with plenty of broken promises. well, according to the tyler bond, it is a day of celebration. they don't see it as broken promises. they are gathering at the national wacosta today to mock this as a day of victory, where they ended for an occupation of we've been speaking to them, asking them about this question of how, what, how have they been able to provide for the people who understand how are they going to address this large gap between what is needed and what is available? how are they going to provide jobs to the people of, of lunchtime, and what are they going to do for the rights of women and girls in this country? those are the questions that the thought about and say that they're going through

initial phases of taking control. they're trying to resurrect an economy which has collapsed. but they say that the international community and also have the responsibility to words of bonus. and earlier, i caught up with the spokesman for the ministry of foreign affairs. and here's what he told us. they have decided on a path of collective punishment for the people of afghanistan out with steps such as a sanctions on trade, on banking and overall country. the state of atlanta, the freezing of assets, the black las so people are banks and companies do not have the confidence and are afraid that if they do do with the state and the government of a finest that, that they will face similar sanctions when it comes to hospital schools, infrastructure, basic infrastructure, nothing was built over the last 20 years of occupation was all an artificial a economy that collapsed overnight. so now the government is moving on the path

towards self sufficiency. so that is what the taliban thinks that is the reality on the ground and what it is going to build upon. we have been taught in this country from the ascent to head and cobble to the east and the north . and what is common in everywhere we've been is the desperation of people, people trying to put food on the table, trying to send the children to school, having to decide whether to get medical treatment or to find a meal. and it is why the son is not poor because off the found a bond, but it was already for what has happened is that because of these sanctions, because the economy is collapse because the thought of on a grappling with how to go forward, the people are of, of, of longest on have become porter, they've become more desperate, and they're looking at the international community and local, but as in the region is better to try and help them so that there is some hope for

the future of, of lanissa. all right, thank you so much a summer. bon jovi reporting for us from capital china central bank has trimmed interest rates to boost economic growth. new figures show industrial output grew just 3.8 percent in july, but that was lower than expected. retail sales have slowed and investments, and property has dropped. the rate cuts suggests the government believes it cannot achieve its growth target this year. a 5 and a half percent. andrew coyer is managing director, orient capital research. he says the right cut was a surprise. most people felt the given rising inflation and the fact that interest rates are rising in the you and your united states in drawing investment out of china that the central bank would not go so far as to cut rates. but they did do that. it really indicates a real sense of, i don't know, one of a panic, but concerns in the leadership about the lack of growth in the economy. in fact, they've been throwing a lot of money. the problem, the banks have access capacity to lead. but

a lot of bar borrowers don't want to borrow because they see that the opportunities to investor very are shrinking. in fact, there's a lot of downturn in the economy that's turning people away. or the bursting property bubble is, is, or is, is the biggest mill still around china's neck? essentially, that it's something like 25 to 30 percent of g d p. and it looks like people protesting mortgages and lack of investment property industry. it's a bigger problem. the only thing i can say is that there's the august data of the free i frequency data from august shows that some port exports are still are picking up steel and concrete sales. surprisingly we're picking up even though the property market is getting less investment. so we'll have to see if there's might be some modest, very modest turnaround of august. north korean state media is reporting that the russian president vladimir putin is planning to extend expand ties between moscow and kion yang. putin reportedly wrote to north korea as can jo saying

a closer relationship would be in both countries, interests. the leaders exchange letters on the 77 diversity of the korean peninsula, liberation from japanese rule. while both north and south korea are marking that anniversary, japan ruled all of korea from 1910 until the end of world war 2. in 1945. it was followed 5 years later by the korean war that divided the country. let's think that mason richey was a specialist on north korea and an associate professor of international politics. hancock, university, a foreign studies he's joining us from. so thanks for your time with us on al jazeera. so there was this exchange of letters between the 2 liter and the russian and the north korean leaders who. ready you think need to more in principle, i think both of these countries when think that they need each other and both of them think that they have something to offer to their partner. and i say that because, you know,

but moscow and john young are under extensive sanctions. in the case of north korea . we're a long time now under extensive international sanctions. and now russia ever since beginning in 2014 with the annexation of premier. but now, especially since february of 2022 with the invasion of ukraine, russia finds itself also under extensive sanctions, late in particular by the united states and by europe. so both of these partners have been limited with respect to how they can interact now with the international economic community. so in the case number 3 are, you know, they can send workers, for instance, to, to russia. and notably in the far east, russia would be an additional import export market, or one that would would be larger if they were to expand their economic relationship. and this is important for north korea, not only as a source of financial stability and international currency,

but also the source of diversification away from too much for why and when china, right. in the case of russia, they could get, they get some of those workers in the east, which is important. and that's also an import export market for them as well. and the letter i'm quoting here added to quote, strategic and tactical cooperation support and solidarity between the 2 countries had been put on a new high stage in the common front for frustrating the hostile forces. just wonder if you can provide context for that because the young young didn't really identify who the hostile forces are by name, but the term in the past has been used to towards the us and its allies. how will the u. s. and the allies be looking at all of this? yes. so you know, obviously when, when john young refers the hospitals forces that obviously means the us, it means japan mean south korea. and so, you know, the moscow on young axis has been something that experts have been expecting to

grow, especially since february 2022, even before the policy because nor 3 needs the diversification away from china. and now after the ukraine invasion, russia could also use other partners not only for the direct economic exchange, but also because the strategic implications of let's say, a sort of block of authoritarian states were pushing back against the west end against the u. s. in europe. so how would the u. s. in europe look at this, or how would the rest of the national me look? it says, i think that they would look at it with some concern. they would be worried about a growing potential strategic triangle between moscow, john young and hearing that being said, i don't think anybody's going to run around with their hair on fire and washing tour in brussels. we're in paris and other places, if for no reason and authoritarian regimes, i typically have a difficult time putting these types of strategic triangles together, e strategic partnerships together for the long term. and what about, i don't think they'll be where i mean you speak to us from sole. and recently the

south korean president did offer a wide ranging a package to not to the north in return. of course, for a d nuclear is ation something that's been a non starter for appealing gang up until this point. how does this rep rush long between north korea and moscow play into south korea as offer of economic aid? if it does at all, i don't think it really plays a direct role. you know, obviously south korea would not want to see moscow and killing young work more closely together. you know, that type of strategic relationship make things more difficult for south 3 of course. and there's plenty of room for mischief for moscow to help chung with it's nuclear weapons program. it's missile program. and that would clearly be a concern for south korea. but as for the massive promise of aid in exchange for january's asian economic development, we've been down this road before. this is something that all south korean president say at some point. so that recent statement really is nothing groundbreaking. and i

don't think that the direct exchange of letters between chung and moscow figure as much in the way that south korea is going to think about its relationship with north reenter verin's ation. thank you so much. nathan richey, for joining us from so great. thanks for having thousands of ukrainians remain missing after the brief russian occupation of the town of boucher. so the streets were left littered with bodies and what ukrainian president will others, alaska calls a war crime. many families are still looking for their relatives. john henry reports from boucher the focus on a pro cinco has been searching for her father since the battle of boucher ended in march. sir, hyper cinco left their home to check on a friend that was in the family, fled to poland during the russian occupation of the town and returned to ukraine to see his car riddled with bullet holes most a bunch of returning here to see his car. oh,

children was standing, they were angels. i know. i know it is god's decision and i accepted. the only question is why this happened? a faulty air conditioning unit sparks, the electrical fire. 5000 worshippers had gathered for sunday. mass. people died from smoke, inhalation. and in the ensuing stampede, go to the 4th floor of the church was on fire. there were a children's nursery and there was a mass. i don't know what happened, but there were kids and elderly people. we saved those, we could, we looked up and saw a lot of black smoke and fumes in the air. the coptic christians make up about 10 percent of egypt population and are often the victims of discrimination attacks and hate crimes. for many, the government offers of compensation are unlikely to me much in the immediate

aftermath of a tragedy that has shaken the largest religious minority in egypt. the thing disrupting autism is really police have shot and killed a palestinian man in occupied easter russell. him. they say he tried to stab officers during a rage, but he has the latest. we know that there's really forces of rated this house over here. you can probably see the damages that they've caused when they entered the house. the family are telling us that as mohammed the 21 year old who was in the house was getting close to where the door is, he was attacked and shot. why is really forces fire? there are difficult scenes here as a women are gathering to control the mother of how much she lost her child.

the father we spoke to, he says that his son was assassinated in cold blood. he wasn't doing anything. you know, this is part of the reality that palestinians live when they are dipping under the decades long of these really military occupation. the body of mohammed was taken by the israeli forces while he was critically injured bodies still we're so as far as we are concerned here, there is no funeral yet because the body is still with these really forces. you can see there are difficult seems palestinians say that israel is killing palestinians in cold blood just because they can was heard from the foreign ministry saying that this is a mafia. saw execution was condemned, was heard from palestinian officials calling for an urgent investigation. expose

issues that the country needs to address, including corruption and gender inequality. he also pledged to make india a developed country in 25 years. now, one of the major teams at his mom during the course of the independence, the celebrations, is this idea of letting go off the colonial pot. and his page, the prime minister, talked about how people from india should be proud of being indian. and that's something that even experts have pointed out, they see that despite the many challenges in your, has emerged as a political and economic success story. i mean, it is the largest democracy, democracy, that functions and it is a major economy. and today people are celebrating that they're hosting flags. they're holding rallies, they're posting pictures with the flag on social media. it's all about taking pride

in what has been achieved with optimism of what is yet to come. iran has denied the country was involved in a knife attack on all sorts of monroe de a foreign ministry spokesman said that rusty and his supporters are to blame. iran issued a decree against the author and $989.00. after the publication of his novel, the same tonic verses which some muslims consider blasphemous, rusty was repeatedly stab at a literary event in new york state on friday. his agents, as he is on the road to recovery, former south african president, jacob summa is back in court as he tries to avoid being sent back to prison. is appealing against the ruling in december that found his release on medical, parole was unlawful. zulema had been sentenced to 15 months in jail and for contempt of court in july last year, but only served 2 months from his miller's at the supreme court of appeal. so what have you seen so far in court today?

well, so far we've heard from the former president jacob seumas lawyers and they're arguing why he should remain out on medical role. and that so ruling by the high call to december should be overturned. the i quoted found that he, his release on medical bureau was invalid because it hadn't gone through a parole board, which is the normal process. and in fact, had been issued by the former head of correctional services at the time, who is known to be an ally of the form of presidents. but his lawyers are saying that they have been questioned about whether or not the former president has a terminal illness. he is lawyer dunham poor who has said not answered that question actually saying, referring, referring to it as a condition and not wanting to go into detail around exactly what is wrong with the former president. and also arguing that it would it,

would it invade his right to privacy in terms of revealing exactly what is wrong with the former president, but much of the arguments. but hearing in the court behind us, we'll have to do with the president, the former president's condition, and the reasons why he should stay out on medical parole and not return to court. if we look back, he was sentenced to 15 months in prison for contempt of court, often not appearing at a commission of inquiry into corruption and those who again, or against the former president release, such as an opposition party in various civil society groups is saying that should he return to prison? should the supreme court find in their favor that the months he spent outside of prison on medical burrow shouldn't be counted. and he should resume that sentence from the time he left prison. okay, thank you so much for mr. miller. the survivors i've had devastating mudslide in
