the streets of the iraqi capital. certainly much quieter than they were 24 hours ago in the last hour we've heard from the rocky present bomb sally. what he had to say about the violence and crisis. well, a significant speech by the president barham sala, her folly. indeed, he is told his speech with a sad tune, regretting the bloodshed that took place over the past 2 days. as you know, 30 people were killed and about 700 others. one day due to the clash of that happened in the heavily fortified at greens on the present have been in his speech have covered a few significant and crucial points on top of them. he started by commending the move by mac, that a southern was throwing from the green zone. he says that it's a brave step that serving the public interest. meanwhile, his is calling on the raven factions,

including the southern himself and his rivals, the iranian backed earth, political factions to come back to their negotiating, get at the table as a way out of this political a deadlock. the elections air are a key point here and the president speech, he reiterated that early elections and forming a government are a key or move key steps to get out of this political let crisis. the present was very clear in his speech, admitting some kind of failure of the whole political system. he said that namely the last elections, he means the october legislative elections were not successful because they did not bring forward the hopes of the people who was up against corruption in turn, in his words, again, admitting the corruption of the political system. he says it needs

a drastic change. she also reiterated that the z, rocky people have been suffering for 2 decades now, and it's now time for them to get their wishes fulfilled. he also, oh hi. lighted the fact that in his was that iraq should not be a soil for other foreign and regional powers to settle scores. so the present was very clear also calling their evil factions don't come back to the negotiating table to work on holding early elections and to form a new government to run the coming transitional period as a way out of this political crisis. thank you for that mahmoud abdougla had life or a say in baghdad, or the latest unrest in iraq. his yields, as he heard by a power struggle between she i'd groups looked at outsider pauses for an interference in local politics. his supporters mainly come from poor communities that have been long shot out of the political system. a competing against

a collection of she i groups known as the coordination framework that are aligned with iran, both sides of military wings with thousands of members. some of them have been involved in the street fighting in baghdad unless say one person who could help and the crisis is the clerical yancey, stanny his words hold enormous sway among iraqi people, and their leaders for so far is kept silent. while lead sir, bring in alley hush, him now is covered iraq extensively for us here on al jazeera, joining us on the news, our ali, thank you for being with us. they start with what we've heard from president by. hm . sally, in the last hour. how much does it, how much weight does he does it carry? what the president has said is calling for early elections and so on. does it carry any weight? well, herb, as it's very clear, the state in iraq is dysfunction. so even with the president that has a ceremonial role, that is not much that he can add to whatever is happening except that is embracing

the mac for the southerners movement as just like our president prime minister called him he did as hell, boucher, the speaker of the parliament, it's just more of ceremonial speech and it's not going to have an impact. people are not going to react to it because that is, 1st of all, as i said this functional state and there is no confidence in the whole system. this is the main issue that dropped people to the streets in 2019. and this is the main issue that made people boycott the elections in 2021. i interesting that you see there. so even if they are new elections like the president is connie for in some parties as well, it won't really change much because of the current political system. any seems iraqis have lost faith in the system. now one of the main issues right now everyone is us is calling for elections. but the problem who is going to to vote 60 percent

of the people boycotted the last election. if it's going just to repeat itself, then there is that there is no sense of what other other people are calling for. and i think many of the iraqi elite right now are assessing this. there is a need for in you a social, political, social, political contract among the iraq. you factions, the iraqi people, the iraqi political movements, and it really finding the state. what does the state mean this consensus, a democracy that rules iraq since 2003 hasn't really provided at the people of iraq with any step forward. but actually they went steps backward. there is no development in the country. the political, a political process is in a very bad situation, socially also. so all these issues are having impact on the norman iraqi people besides right, that security is dos, but only how important is it still that the different confessions are represented

in this political system today? well, this is, it's a shared democracy. every one is sharing their own, a gains out of this system, and this is creating a dilemma because no one is coming forward with a project for the country development project taking the, the country and then the extra mile that it needs. it's one of the richest countries in the world with a vast or says resources and all these things. but it's not, it's not able to make use of that and with people right now. but they don't have electricity. they have, they are, they don't have jobs having problems with, i mean economic problems and as use as we can see right now they don't have security. right? right now, calm has returned to baghdad. we've had 30 people killed in the last 20 for 48 hours. looked at our sat at called on his support, his withdrawal from the green cell. did he get what he wanted?

many people are said his, you know, announcing that he's quitting politics was a tactical move. do you think he's gotten what he wanted at this stage and what's likely to be his next move? well, also the further conflict conveyed the message you wanted to convey to the local rivals and also to the regional vitals. this is a main point. he also wanted to position himself away and distance himself away from his rivals, from the other leaders. he's away his inner is in high of a place, whereas he's not a politician anymore. this is what he's trying to say like now, maybe this is the 5th or 6th time that look for the father with buyers from politics. by this time it's different from the bus farms. for many reasons. i don't, i don't think we have the time to, to discuss. we've been discussing this with all day. but one main reason is that there were attempts to split his own movement and he took the decision to take the step forward in order to bring them together was very interesting to talk to you about this complex situation in iraq. holly hash me,

thank you for joining us on the usa. in other news, the u. s. navy says it's foiled an attempt by iranian forces to capture an unmanned fest. so it's released these images said to show the rainy in ship towing the small american vessel before it was let go. the u. s. says the sale joan explorer was being operated by swift fleet in the gulf. a sale drone is capable of carrying out data collection missions like ocean mapping for up to a year. us morehead, on this al jazeera news, our including the european union, agrees to begin work on a plane on a plan to train ukrainian soldiers. but they are divisions within the block over the proposal. kenya's election battle had the court present. presidential candidate rayleigh dingo launches his challenge after rejecting the results of the election earlier this month. and in sort the world number 2, engulf least the pga tour for arrival. sir,

ah, the united nations secretary general says he will visit pakistan next week. antonia guiterres is appealing for a $160000000.00 in aid to help more than $33000000.00 people are affected by the worst floods in decades. more than 1100 people have died since the monsoon rains began in june. pakistan is a washing suffolk. the pakistani people are facing the monsoon on steroids, the relentless impact of epochal levels of rain and flooding. the climate catastrophe askew, more the 1000 people with many more injured. let us all step up in solidarity and support to the people of pakistan in their howard of needs. let stop sleep walking towards the destruction of our planet by climate change to they. it is

pakistan to morrow, it could be your country. let's bring in our diplomatic editor, jane space at the united nations, a very strong message there. james, from the united nations secretary general, who's going to be visiting pakistan next week? yeah, the un, very deeply concerned about the scale of what's happened in pakistan. pakistan is pretty well equipped country with a big army biggest civil defense capabilities, but it can't cope with something this big. remember this is that the 5th most populous country in the world, a population of 210000000 people. and a 3rd of that country is now under water. what they're doing at the moment is dealing with the emergency phase. they're clearly going to look for people who might be trapped people who might be missing a but also dealing with the but the millions of people have been displaced from their homes. and i'm told there are some big problems initially because of um

they've reached the over the capacity in terms of manufacturing for things like tense. there are no more tents to be found in pakistan, mosquito nets and most importantly, food. so and then we calling on the international community to bring in some of those things that are needed according to the un humanitarian coordinator who i spoke to in the last hour or so up. but of course, that's just a 1st phase. this is something that is going to affect pakistan for a long time at country that already is economically suffering. you've got bridges that have been destroyed, homes that have been destroyed. you've got crops and you've got livestock that have been destroyed, that families depend on for their livelihoods. this is going to be a long term problem for pakistan. and so when they're a secretary general goes next week, what, where do we expect to come from that? well, i think 2 things, he says is the solidarity visit number one i think is to show the enduring length

of this, that the fact that pakistan is going to need a lot more than the 160000000 the us for today. this is just for the 1st phase, and it could be appealing to the international community for more funds and more support for pakistan going forward. the 2nd thing though, when you heard it, when you heard the 2nd general speak, is he is making a clear point that this is not just a isolated tragedy in pakistan. in his view, this is a direct result of climate change. it shows the, the scale of the climate emergency. and it's worth noting that if you look at all the countries in the world, a puck is not in his very populous country, but it's not one of the big emitters. and so pakistan is, i think, certainly that the un will make the point pakistan is a suffering because of abuses of the environment, but that in many cases have been a been carried out by other countries. james, thank you very much for that. james rose's ada premera editor live there at the united nations. for many of the people have died in pakistan. i have died in all

parts of the southern seemed province where people live in basic might. and brick houses are just here as in best rabby has the story of one remote village in chicago district where frederick tim's a desperate for help until the monsoon rains came last week. burkett elise was the newest house in the village. was never but okay, that a big man and it started raining my neighbors, cynthia children to my house as well because my place was new, it was safe. there was no fear. suddenly at 2 in the morning there was a loud crash. and the entire roof came down. 16 women and children were asleep inside at the funny, a lease wife, young son and 3 other children were crushed. tad, welcome your mother. he feels helpless. he says, his household wiped away. traditional structures in rural sin,

affordable for the poor, usually suited to the terrain, are being overwhelmed by the effects of climate change. the weather has become so extreme. so suddenly people say the building techniques, their fathers and grandfathers used to make houses just aren't strong enough anymore. focused on producers less than one percent of global carbon emissions, but suffers some of its worst effects. mohammed sustained last 2 daughters and a son when the roof collapsed. a message to the world from a grieving father. nursing me, i gotta help me. i've got my friends go to my friend about lego. the rain was not like this before. i just want to tell the world, prepare yourselves, go somewhere safe. my advice is don't sleep under ruth, may god keep your safe. i wouldn't wish what happened to us on any one. his wife was in the house at the time to get the money,

but she now clings to the children. she has still in shock. she hasn't said much since it happened. they put their children to bed where they thought it would be dry, where they thought it would be safe. the men slept out in the open to give women and children more room. the best of intentions met with the worst effect. this is in basra, b l, j 0 should car poor since province pakistan and command hydra has more from noise shera where 2 major rivers have flooded. i'm at a place called hara bod, which is also the confluence point between 2 major pug assoni rivers. behind me you have the river cobble coming from the west, and toward that end, the river end us, which comes from the north. now both are said to be in high flood and although the situation of nor did now improving with the water receding, there is

a grave thread that this large water body is heading out toward the province of sin and is going to hate southern punjab douglas bugger, stones, cotton, growing bell, and gordon is of course bogus on scotch grub. my good will also devastate population that situated close to the river bank. august on has seen massive deforestation, which of course is common founding the problem that is worrying and the river beds . and of course there are now higher population density along the water bodies. the country now has to think very seriously, if it wants to mitigate the crisis and deal with future floods. right now, the grave threat is bold to area richer and upon job and the province of sin and head in the k p. k. province. people are now cleaning up and returning to their homes. but there is, of course,

going to be the grave tread toward the barn diseases from the stagnant water that remains ah, the team from the united nations at nuclear watchdog agency v i. e. a has been meeting with ukraine's present very misaligned scheme. keith. this comes before the delegation is to travel to these operation nuclear power plant. fighting near europe's launches nuclear facility has john international concern about a potential disaster. the i. e. a team is being given, access to inspect the russian controlled site, traceable, has more from keith. while the 14 member delegation is already here in key, it's being led by the director of the a file off the who earlier today met with president lead me to fill in the sky. there's been a lot of. 1 concerns about how they're going to be traveling all the way to somebody to it's a long drive. it's about an 8 hour drive. and there is,

there's been some accusations from the ukrainian government saying that shelling was ongoing around the area where the a team should be able to make it all the way to what do you fit in that meeting with president lensky? he assured them that he was going to try to guarantee all the safety possible during that drive. he also said that he was looking forward, that to be a team would be able to convince russia to withdraw from the area to their militarize, the area in order to guarantee the safety of everyone. you know, there's been lots of concern about what's happening in that plan. the russian ministry of defense has been accusing ukrainian forces of shelling the area. some of those shells have come very, very close to where the nuclear fuel is located and even the radioactive waste on the other side. ukrainian government is saying that it is the russians who are doing the attacks from the plant that was taking over by russia overall. the most important thing is to verify that level of damage that has happened to the plant to

feed that the cranium technicians that are working there are doing okay that they're not working under duress, which is what be when your government is saying, because they're being closely monitored by russian soldiers and also that all the faith safety systems are in place. meanwhile, european union defense ministers have been meeting in prague in their flight to ramp up weapons production and boost military training for the cranium armed forces . many training initiative on the way. but the needs are enormous and we need to insure the coherence of these efforts. and i can say that all member to stage agree clearly and that. and on launching the work necessary to define the parameters, florida you needed to assist admission for the green. i'm not saying that this was

decided today. in any case, this is a you, formal gone. she'll and you form on conceal doesn't take decisions. live to natasha butner correspondent in paris. natasha. tell us more about what dr. e. your defense ministers have agreed in terms of support for ukraine. well, you her the u foreign policy chief there, yos, epa burrell. and he said that at the end of this today, meeting of e u. defense ministers, one of the main things they've agreed upon is to set up you training missions, a for ukrainian forces. and what we understand that to mean is that ukrainian troops could be trained outside of ukraine in neighboring european union countries. this is something that burrell had proposed a few weeks back. he said locally, you carries out a training missions in europe and other places are also africa and asia. so why not

train ukrainian forces? it's the sort of mission the we've seen a carried out by u. k. troops actually outside of the european union, ukrainian troops have been traveling to the u. k. in rotation for training there ever since june of by all accounts successful. that's what you k and ukraine, you'd authority say. now burl hasn't given any more details about when exactly this would start. but what we do understand is, in any case, this needs to be green lighted by you leaders that are some, it in october probably will though, because it seems that all 27 member states are on board. and also in prague. natasha, the you foreign ministers have been are discussing a potential visa band for russians. are they all in agreement about this? it's a very contentious issue and they are not in agreements about it. on one side, you have a north, a countries in some eastern,

a european countries who say that they want a full, a visa ban on russian citizens traveling to the you. some of them say, look, it's not fair that russians are allowed to come and travel to the you often a for a holiday in a sissy, or to be lying on the beach while russia continues. it's more in ukraine of people a dime. they say it is a simply inappropriate. on the other side, you have countries like a germany and france who all calling for a more moderate approach. they say that a full ban would be a counter productive that it would feed into putin's anti you anti west narrative. and archie, alienate many a ordinary, a russian, sir. we're likely to see when this meeting of foreign ministers, e. u. foreign ministers wraps up in prague. on wednesday is that they're likely to come to a compromise, which basically means not a full ban, but perhaps making it much harder for russians to enter the use of more administration,

a much more expensive visas that kind of thing. thank you for that. natasha butler by for i say, in paris, where let's discuss this further. now the sponsible ban for russians are trying to enter europe with gregory petticoat, who's a poet and russian national, who opposes the war in ukraine. he's joining us via skype, from berlin, in germany. thank you very much for being with us as we've heard there possibly a blanket ban on russians entering the e you possibly of laws, may he it more difficult for them to enter. how effective do you think this would be in terms of pressure on the kremlin? well, to saw who is and that if, if they passes that a law, if the country has come to a decision verse to bar russians completely from europe, i will sudden me a lot. as i know quite a number of people back home and for whom the only way of leaving the country

r m will be a tourist visa. so that would mean that those people who by no means supposed pivoting all this for, they'll be locked harp without a chance to leave. so therefore, of course, a will play, felt so uprooting. i mean, obviously, i mean they sanction to, i would say, look like regardless, regardless of who you are, all for or for your stance is just your, your russians for them. you know, your russians, like i. e by had be with us now on the right on our side than just duck full of in and then going there. i mean, you'd be beheld here. right. it's quite clear that there's greg. now, let me ask you, if you are a russian, is your russian opposed to put in to day? how, how easy or difficult is it to travel and stay in europe?

how well with clinical, i mean you can still apply for, i don't know about things now, but when, when putin invaded the ukraine amin, i came as it, you know, as a shock. you know, i was able, i was shell shocked. i, i just couldn't eat. and sleep and, and at some point i got my i to go there and eventually applied for an italian visa . and i came here in berlin by them bull and milan. and i'm only allowed to stay here for 90 days. ards a like a every half a year, 90 days, then i will have to leave the you are for another for like for another half a year. yeah. and then i mean, unless i want to proceed legally and then apply for status here. okay, thank you. so much if, if on the yeah, it's not easy. thank you so much for sharing your experience with as gregory

pentagon russian poet and righty. joining us there from berlin. thank you. pleasure . pleasure. still ahead on the use, our search teams travels to retrieve the wreckage of a boat off the coast of lebanon. the families of those died say they are desperate for co share. any sport the battle of the big hit is a major league baseball. stay with with some now for your weather update across the middle east and africa. thank you so much for joining in plenty of hot sunshine to go around here. still those bursts of rain across western areas of yemen as was in the forecast a to continue to linger right up until the end of the month. and here we are last stable for september, much more. com. pictures we looked toward afghanistan and pakistan may be a few showers a toward the north,

up against the foothills of the himalayas. still high temperatures across areas of the law that will paid the colors on dark, the red, the hard, the temperature, amman at $38.00 degrees. let's take a look at the 3 day forecast. right now. this is going to be an extended period of heat going rate through into next week. your september average is 31. the record for september's 40 and we got you in for 38. so getting pretty close there. central africa getting striped with some pretty solid bands of rain around bungie with a height of 30 degrees in our usual storms. around lake victoria to the south. you know, for south africa its entire coast slime from the northern cape province, stretching over to quasi luna towel. we've got blustery winds in the forecast. her think gus? anywhere about 60 to 65 kilometers per hour, and same goes for that coast of mozambique and that may spread some showers for north central areas on wednesday, sir, later. ah, the 2 stories,

strong willed with challenging traditional female stereotypes in a male dominated society to make a different channel. if i go a course, we'll pull into the ravine, how families look like this. the water is highly contaminated. bolivia in the class . risk in it all on al jazeera. ah, ah ah, ah, with

lou ah, ah, you're watching the news are on al jazeera, a reminder of our top stories in iraq. prison by m. sadler says the political attentions are not over by the early elections could pave away out of the crisis. com has returned to the capital bank, deb after shiite leader mill tot asada told his supporters to end their protest. humanitarian organizations in pakistan as struggling to get aids to more than 33000000 people are affected by the worst floods. in decades, more than 1100 people have died since june. the un secretary general is appealing for a $160000000.00 in paid and will travel to pakistan next week. and the team from the

un nuclear weiss chanc agency has met ukraine's president, brought him his men scheme, keep the talk scheme ahead of the delegation traveling to inspect the russian controls operation nuclear power plant. returning now to our top story and the political unrest in iraq, let's speak to type. our co diary was a research officer at the london school of economics where she specializes in iraq . she's joining us from london. thank you very much for speaking to us. so at the moment we have com. returning to baghdad, after the violent scenes we've seen in the last few days. but how long do you expect it to last? is this just temporary? i think the, the political situation right now is really volatile and unstable and or else it's really difficult to predict what comes next. and there are 2 possible scenarios. so the 1st is that on the she, our coordination framework agrees to santos,

cause for new elections which seems unlikely given that the likes of northern molecule have refused new new elections on, along. the 2nd scenario is that either allows the she or coordination of framework to form a government without him, which again seems unlikely given the violence that we've seen since yesterday. so wallace uncertain whether or not and violence will return to the streets. one thing that we can be sure of is that the political crisis is not going to be resolved anytime soon. what do you think he was trying to achieve looked at outsider by announcing that he was quitting politics. i mean, he's done this in the past and many a said it was a strategic move. what was he trying to achieve and did he succeed? sure, i think was important to remember is that i'm, it's been 11 months since the early elections were held in iraq on october 20 is

when to on that mobile to that came out on top. and that his sort of requests one to full majority government and to for new elections had been blocked. it's have return to what he was doing here was he was showing the shower coordination framework and he was flexing his muscles to speak. he was showing them what he was capable of, and i think he very much succeeded in doing so. very many of said that the only person that could help and this crisis today is the grand shia cleric alley off his funny. but he's remained silent. what do you think this is? why is he not getting involved? i think sir aaliyah's destiny is very much a he is a religious cleric, man for whatever sort of recommendations for reform he will, he's going to make are always going to be limited. he is not a politician, and i think that since the protest in october 2019,

he's been really wary about supporting the political elite, very much last legitimacy with the iraq, the public at large and interesting that you talk about this because this is what we've heard from many of our, of, i guess that iraqis have lost faith in their bullet or system. i want to ask you about the external forces that have traditionally paid a role in iraqi politics. united states and iran have played a major role in iraqi politics in the past. in your judgment, are they still playing major roles show? i mean, we have to think about the fact that the kinds of political system that was created an iraq essentially put rivaling islamist parties with support from abroad, whether from iran, whether from the us, empowering around. so what we've see, and since the october 21 elections is on the one hand, not to the center, really pushing back against iranian interference. and on the other hand, the shia coordination framework and molecule really pushing back against malta.

and obviously the shar, coordination of framework is won't many factions within it are supported by iran. and this is one of the key reasons that, for example, norion molecule refuses to step down from, from the sheer coordination frame what a cider has wanted all along. thank you. so much time for talking to us about this . thank you for your insight. i found your diary is from the london irving analytics joining us from london, a sudanese assoni say 99. people have died intervention, rains and flash fights over the past few weeks. they've warned that rivers in the east have reached dangerous levels and could burst their banks at any moment, ma'am, at val re, for some cartoon, homeless and in desperate need of health. 36 villages in eastern sudan have been inundated by water and the threat from floods isn't over yet. the torrential rains

began more than 5 weeks ago and gash, a seasonal river near the city of casela has reached unprecedented levels and threatens to spill into surrounding areas. so that now lola, i'm not on, i mean i'm on august la gosh loadings. our biggest problems. we've been asking for a bridge to be built in this area since 2017. but authorities never responded to our demands. local authorities say several people have lost their lives in this area so far. 15000 homes have been completely or partly damaged. swedes of agricultural land have been destroyed. thousands of families have lost their livelihoods. while i'm thought of shackle, another for building, it continues to rain and people have lost their homes. now they need shelters. mosquito nets insecticides up and will be casado authorities are appealing for humanitarian help. i'm not a little was that it had almost

a lot of that that the people who've been affected were already among the poorest in this area. so we would like to ask good hearted people in organizations to intervene and bring more help. several countries including cut on saudi arabia have already responded large shipments of aid have been sent by air and are being distributed. but logistics issues are delayed the operation. many of the affected areas are remote and happy, impossible to reach, because the roads have been cut off by floods. the 14 states across to then need immediate help. the deadly floods have caused extensive damage to property, especially in the states of called the van da for disease and white. and i am with a few more weeks of the wet season. remaining fears are mounting, but the situation for those already effected might go from bad to worse,
