12:17 pm
and i've been trying to buy it for 3 months with 0 results and average when he's right. this region is rich with coal, but polish production is limited, and the government has band imported cold from russia. even though it's cheaper and more suitable for domestic use, we didn't invest in nuclear power yet, or we cannot rely on natural gas. so all we have is gold. when it comes to the heating sector, the situation is even worse because we were heavily dependent on russian. ready co, poland burns, a lot of coal, 87 percent of the total for households across the european union. coal mines surrounded by cues of trucks can't meet the demand. and if people knew the level of profiteering going on, they be even more alarmed. there's a reason that truck drivers from all over poland are spending days on end and cues like these. it's because the loads may be small, but the profits a big drivers are known to make at least a 100 percent profit from
12:18 pm
a coal yard dealer who will then raise the price by at least another 100 percent. this driver admits the 2nd old will suffer of either be tagged what the government should do is get pension as a special allowance on coal delivered to that door and it's sick. i don't want to profit from human misery, but that's how it is. the government says an annual coal allowance of around $630.00 a year will help. and ministers say companies are importing coal ahead of the coming winter polish companies are now importing call from other countries from columbia, indonesia, south africa, and placing her with that dirt, the quantities of cold were coming from russia. it's a bit of a different logistics, so it, it creates challenges. but right across poland, people like this homeowner feel the government isn't doing enough. andrew simmons, al jazeera kat of it, sir poland and on thursday,
12:19 pm
andrew will report on challenges facing another eastern european country in the coming months. i'll be reporting on a different type of crisis here in hungary. it's 85 percent reliant on russian gas . and that's causing many problems. a group of e u countries is pushing to ban russian taurus, russia, borders, european union members, finland, stonier, lat fear, lithuania and poland. all 5 wanton e u. y ban on russian visitors, the block band, russian plains, from its air space following moscow's invasion of ukraine in february. that turned countries with land borders into popular holiday destinations for russian tourists . russian license plates on luxury cars are a common site that finland's biggest, therefore, is foreign minister says finland has become a transit country. ban is expected to be discussed at next week's meeting of e u foreign ministers. on thursday ra hanging refugees will mark the 5th

gang violence within the time between growing our gangs. there is also killing of many of the camp leaders in recent months, as well as in the last couple of years. there's also period of incidence of fire across the come, many joining us try to flee the camp and head toward southeast asia for better life on the process, hundreds of died. more than 50 percent of the total joy hang out. refugees are children. when he walked across the campus, you said children everywhere. this is one of the major concern for the growing up families. they want education for their children. there is no formal education school, there's only informal school run by the unicef and other agencies. all the home based schools are shut down by the government. this is one of their main concern right now. nearly $1200000.00 host come in a year on the refugee camps. now they're also frustrated. bunger those government. it's also finding, it's difficult to manage the camp 5 years on that is no tangible movement. there's been a lot of visit by lomax un representative,
12:22 pm
but nothing concrete or tangible happened so far. there has been 2 fail repair creation process. many bilateral talks between me and marin bangladesh, the banker, the government, blames man for rigging on its promises not making any effort to take back the growing as to their homeland indirect kind. despite all the diplomatic effort bangers, this government is well, community has not putting enough pressure on man to take back the rest of it to their homeland rescue teams in pakistan, the working around the clock to help hundreds of thousands of people stranded by floods. the provinces of southern sinned and southwest and ballade just stand have been badly hit this week. the armies deployed thousands of soldiers to areas where bridges and highways have been severely damaged. hundreds of people have died in floods in pakistan since june. more rain is forecast in the coming days. the cool is that it is full of the $34.00 districts in bulk system. 31 have been partially awfully damaged. this is clearly

12:24 pm
a recession, it was hit very hard by the code, 900 demick, especially when oil price, oil price crushed in april 2020. given that it's, that's a major revenue earning, and those, you know, really had an impact on. so if you're economic conditions that were not that good to begin with, i think that definitely contributions to a sense of disillusionment with the ruling party. the other thing is that when president finance, who took over in 2017, there was a kind of renewed optimism in the country that perhaps he would open up the greater civil society space that he would hold local elections. that, you know, perhaps the board was proto, macroeconomic stability that might start to trickle down. but of course, that hasn't entirely happened. some of it has been a lack of political will. other things have been just global shocks. but this is really contributed to this feeling of delusion. and this is,

12:26 pm
just shooting wildly into the apartment. despite the fact we could see anything that we're blinds down on a block out. but he was just firing away with it, with his guns. he's going to be charged with excessive force. again, he was acquitted on that charge in the state court already though once. but we should also remember them that just leaves the 2 offices who are actually inside brianna taylor tennis apartment who bust in. they claim that they announce themselves brown, tennis boyfriend who was the big said said they did not. they're the ones who actually 510, yes, many sholtes inside the apartment 6 with which hit brown until one of which killed them that i've been charged with anything. so it's clearly welcomed that people are being charged by the federal government for constitutional crimes. but this is clearly fatal all out of state level, but, but southern still being looked at at least something moving forward that the people are slowly perhaps beginning to be held accountable for, for the steph. columbia has ended the policy of destroying cocoa crops as newly

12:29 pm
and those who actually monarchists, who would like the monarchy to return. and both of these groups in a way and us tells it sort of a mythic past of stability and believes that things used to be more stable and just better in the past than they are today. and i think that the president, in a way is using this moment to say that he is the candidate of stability of continuity. it's quite a turbulent moment right now with a very unstable economic situation. but certainly movements in the polls most and i have been buying things recently due to increased public spending. and i think he's certainly using this moment to project himself as a statesman and somebody who would like to project us stability. so i think particularly. busy those who have a sense that, you know, things used to be better in the past and who disliked the volatility inherent to
