jabari is in to have rom with more and how the iranian government is reacting to the violence in bagdad. well, we heard from officials in iran who have advised their citizens not to travel to iraq. they have also cancelled all flights to iraq as a result of the instability ongoing in that country. there's a travel advisory tall doing citizens to avoid travel to the country. they've also close all the land border crossing between iraq and your on of course the 2 countries are neighbors and they share a very long border that stretches about 1300 kilometers. and we also heard from the foreign ministry course and a little earlier this evening. and he said that the great new government leave that there is no political impacts that iraq can't solve itself. and that's the use of recommending that iraq and pursue and solution to political

misunderstandings of their having based on its constitution. which is interesting, of course, because one of the main issues that is the core of the dispute between the southern supporters and the government is the constitution itself. and the laws that i've been put in place about the system of government that they have looked at al serra has been a prominent figure in iraq, politics for a long time. shortly this saturday movement is one of the most powerful factions is to prominence our to the end of saddam hussein's leadership in 2003 is demanded. the departure of american troops and oppose as a ron's influence is movement secured the most seats in the parliamentary elections in october. but those 73 seats were not enough for a majority. after months of failing to form a government sat ordered his m. p.

his reported extensively from iraq and has more incentives, decision to turn his back on politics. the people who follow souther obviously believe that he means it. although he said similar things in the past has been. and that is why in a, in a place where iraq find itself now without a government since october last year, heading in a direction where there seems to be no hope for the people who voted for, for those people who are in power. you have to remember that these people have had no rest bite. it looking forward to the politicians. they can't even agree on forming a government. so yes, it is a very interesting time. we're southern has decided to call it quits for politics. but in a few hours of when he did, you also heard him tell his people that there should refrain from violence, saying that he's going to go on a hunger strike until the violence comes down. and that's something that has been broken by the prime minister as well. so yes, you can believe as much as he said that he'll be

a part of officially from politics. but he has a massive falling. he's the, he's the person who can pull the largest crowds out, not just in baghdad, but across the country as well. so i don't think that this is the end of both of those heather has been on pakistan's planning minister says the initial economic losses from widespread floods could be more than $10000000000.00. a sonic ball says it will take 5 years to rebuild and recover. rains have killed more than 1100 people since june. government is warning of food shows just because of how many crops have been lost. military helicopters have been deployed to help those stranded in remote areas. come on hydrogen swartz. one of the worst affected areas in pakistan, he sent us this report where i'm standing right now. you can feel the draw. now did rocks were brought by the raging broadway and had our grinding effect . in fact played red,

butler has more from paris. well, the tech republic currently holds the rotating presidency of european union. and that is why they have called this emergency a meeting of energy ministers next week in brussels. they say it's absolutely essential that the you take a look at ways that we can shield industry companies and people from storing energy bills. there's a lot of concern of cross, of course, across the block about how to try and shield people from the impacts of these bills . we've all seen how these, how energy costs are just going up and up, consume, is very concerned. now what at the czech republic says, is that it will be putting on the table a proposal and a number of proposals, and among them will be a cap on gas prices that are used for electricity production. it's very important said the cheque industry minister when he was outlining some of these proposals

a bit earlier that the you does take a block wide approach. he says that some countries going to be suffering and not more than others because of the impact of a drop in gas supplies, particularly from russia. and that's as a plot all 27 meant the states need to work together to try and navigate through this crisis very much along the lines of an e u wide approach that was taken during the covey pandemic. we've also heard, i should add from the french prime minister elizabeth born. she was talking a bit earlier in paris to company bosses. she has called on companies and frauds to try and reduce their energy consumption by 10 percent. these will be, this will be a voluntary basis, it will be a mandatory basis, but the government says that it does reserve the right to put in mandatory cots in the future if the, if it is found that it is needed. we've heard from elizabeth born again as we've been hearing from these leaders, so it will be

a very difficult winter ahead for consumers and businesses in europe. one person has been killed and protests across haiti. hundreds took to the streets, the capital plus a prince and other cities to demand the resignation of prime minister ariel only a blame him for high cost of living and widespread violence. here, today we took to the streets again to claim our rights, the police for it just to kill us. as you can see, all the gas pots have been fired. i the we will not stop protesting until arial, already resigned, because things have become more complicated under his government. we don't have purchasing power. inflation is about 31 percent. this is the 1st time we're experiencing something like this in this country. to a has some in the brazilian ambassador and santiago, over accusations made by president jebel scenario, but a chill and counterpart gabriel borak. both noise and berg set several metro stations on fire during antique government protests in santiago. 3 years ago. he

it's really help to replenish the yangtze river right behind me. just a few days ago, parts of this river had dried up so much you could walk half way across it. but the concern now for authorities is the threat of possible flooding. one of the things the heat wave did, is it really bates the soil around this region and has caused it to crack and loosen and that increases the possibility of natural disasters. so authorities have issued a flood alert, warning, they've evacuated more than 100000 people to safe grounds. and rain is expected to persist in some parts of southwestern china over the next 10 days. so it does look as though there is going to be further weather related uncertainty in the days ahead. a new study warns melting from greenland massive i sheet will eventually raise global sea levels by at least 27 centimeters. even if carbon emissions stop. now it says this is because of what's known as zombie ice,

teaches me that if something like this happens in the future, not to keep silent or think this is normal. i have to protest like i am now and stand against the occupation and say hello all of that. the listener in july, the israeli education ministry revoked the permanent licenses of 6 palestinian schools in occupied east jerusalem. the education minister declined our request for an interview, but in a statement she says the schools are using text books that glorify prisoners armed struggle against israel. and their teaching incitement. the schools have one year to remove the books or they'll be closed. it's like an authoritarian regina that wants to wipe parts of the truth, it from it's his own people and this is happening to 7 years old children. this is ridiculous. and we will not allow that since the 1975 order,

the palestinian authority has overseen the education of its people can on that thoughtful mamma that i am, that we contacted the donors of the educational sector and international community to urge them to take action. and stopped as a tech against palestinian educational system in jerusalem. one of the attorneys representing the school says, this is politically motivated, censorship. that breeches the 1995 oslo accords and international laws on occupation. the basic and most common rule and international law regarding occupied territories, whereas the occupant could never rule and occupy territory sovereignty. since one of the main and most inherent instruments of sovereignty is dictation of education, the legal team representing the schools admits the prospects of prevailing in the israeli judicial system are slim, these palestinian se at stake.
