hello again, i'm adrian again. this is al jazeera alive from dough, also coming up. ah, russia and china take part in joint military drills as tension with the west source over ukraine. b u and says that china may have committed crimes against humanity, against weakest and other mostly most from groups in san jang provoking a furious response from bay j. plus. i'm seen bas ravi in pakistan's, southern sin province, where people in towns like this are using mud walls and sandbags to hold back the flood waters. we begin to do cray and wear a team of view and experts as finally reached europe's largest nuclear power facility. the arrival of the russian occupied supple russia plant and southern ukraine was delayed by all is due to shilling along the route cave and moscow blame

each other for the fighting. ukraine's nuclear agency says one of the 2 operational reactors has been shut down because of russian mortar attacks or rushes foreign minister insists the safety of the un mission has been taken into account. we really sure we're doing everything to ensure that the plant is safe and for the i a mission there to carry out all of his plans. they say that they are not in a position to say who is in the wrong. of course, they would be shown all those traces left as a result of ukrainian bombardments, ukrainian sharing. we insisted that the mission must include experts and ballistics . so i hope we are going to find out, or rather we know everything, but i hope that the international community will get this opportunity to go to kind of grow phase nuclear arms control specialists. we used to work out the a, he says the shilling near the plant is extremely dangerous. of the 6 react is to have what were already in shut down status and only 2 have been operating at any

one time over the past several months. so of the, to react as why it was shut down probably because of last electric power. so each reactor unit has the backup generators that re diesel electric generators as well as to backup. so the separate nuclear power plant does have a backup power supply. but however, we still need the nuclear power plants to run on regular transmission power, not back up diesel generated a team has 3 sets of experts. one group will be assess the nuclear safety systems, the safety systems of the safety of the fuel, the emergency shut down, their merge, and seek or cooling and the power supply. another team will assess the security situation, the physical security situation, the damages, and so on. and the 3rd team will be looking at the nuclear material, doing nuclear material accountancy and servicing the i. e. s. cameras and seals and the nuclear fuel ponds. and the reactor areas,

the power plants containment structure has a pick. steel liner, talbert, by a great cover. but no nuclear power plant is designed to survive a war situation or hits from artillery shells. so any firing of any type in the vicinity of a nuclear power plant is very irresponsible and extremely dangerous. in a show of growing defense cooperation, russia and china holding wargames the week long. but if the drills are taking place in russia's far east and the sea of japan, also 2022 involves more than $50000.00 troops and thousands of weapons units, including aircraft and warships. the exercises come at a time when russia faces increased isolation from western countries after its invasion, alt ukraine. the chairman of russia, 2nd largest oil company, has hide after falling from a hospital window. according to russian media reports reveal mugot off was being

patrick fork has more on the chinese government's reaction. for the theorists, the sponsor come out of the foreign ministry and beijing today gives you a little bit of an idea of the pressure. the office for the high commission of human rights was under not to publish this report spokesperson one when been said the quote, so called assessment was illegal null and void and said it violated the principles of objectivity. and if you read between the lines, it did sound very much as though this criticism was being directed specifically at michelle bachelor and accused her office of being an enforcer and accomplice of the u. s. but this angry reaction also gives you a bit of an idea of just how damaging beijing finds all of this. you know, a lot of the findings in this reports aren't exactly new, but this report carries the weights of the un, which does mean that countries and china and various international bodies are going to be under pressure to act accordingly. and you know, this response from china will be seen by many as an attempt to create an

alternative narrative and to undermine the united nations human rights efforts. don't come, isa is the president of the world we go. congress. he hopes the you and report will pave the way for tangible action by the international community. some come, so i will testimony and some expert testimony, answer nick document at this all show that a canadian chinese government atrocity against wigan in genocide. so no, it's just just robot not occur and it saying is it just i did pick him, but it was we were, we were just saying a crime against humanity it. so if this report is not very satisfied from for what site, because rarely did it really, really terrible. and it's done. and they explained absorbed bipolar, as they said, this is the important. it is the some previous talk to the, to the bay or the and the opener plainest. a crimes pakistan's army is on high

li report style from qualon. when rosemary man, so was the 1st lady of malaysia. she was heavily criticized for her lavish lifestyle, from designer handbags, too expensive jewelry. but the true extent of her taste for the finer things in life only became clear when her husband, nat. geo rather lost an election in 2018. after an investigation into allegations of corruption, the couple were eventually charged. police seized hundreds of boxes of jewelry handbags in cash, valued at more than a quarter of a $1000000000.00. on thursday, she was convicted of soliciting a bribe of nearly $42000000.00 and accepting one and a half 1000000 to help accompany secure a project to build solar panels for schools. she's been sentenced to 10 years in prison and find $216000000.00 that remains on bail pending her appeal. yes, we have. we were noticed or you need appeal. the fine

a part in the defeat of the governing party. i'm new in 2018. this is not the on the lawsuit against ross ma months or she faces 17 other charges of money laundering and tax evasion for illegally receiving more than $1.00 and a half $1000000.00 in a separate case. which means her legal troubles are far from over. florence lee al jazeera colleen port shall anchor and the intentional military fund of strike a deal for a $2900000000.00 bailout. people have been struggling for months under the countries worst economic crisis since independence. they face acute shortages of fuel medicine and over essentials. crisis is led to mass demonstrations and it force the resignation of the president in july, i'll be there as well for and as reports from colombo. what the agreement means is that sri lanka will have access to almost $3000000000.00 over a period of 4 years from the international monetary fund. now this will be mainly

to stabilize the sri lankan economy to help it or reach a place of sustainable deadweight can pay back all the money as it has taken. or as well as i begin to recover from the serious economic crisis that the countries in. now one of the main things though, is that this is very much conditional on the fact that she lanka put together a proper plan with us that those that have lent, it's money about how it's going to pay those money's back for the i m f to be able to go ahead, riff or committing resources and lending it needs to assure itself that that sustainability is being restored. which involves engagement between the debtor. shanker and the creditors, richer, of course, multi fold. the agreement, if it goes through, looks at a number of reforms,

one to improve the government's earnings. it basically passes on the real costs of things like electricity of fuel, which has been subsidized for many, many years. and politicians have been worried about changing the status quo. now obviously people, as you can see, still q is trivial a driver's earning a daily living. and these are people that are really, really struggling, which for long cause economic crisis. the i am if says that their agreement is with the sri lankan people and they want them essentially to benefit overall. but again, this all depends on where the agreement goes. and when sri lanka actually sees the money leader of poland, discovering party says that his country will be demanding $1.00 trillion dollars in world war 2. reparations from germany. the figure follows the release of report on the costs of nazi germany, occupation from 1939 to 1945. i'll just to estimate it. cain reports from berlin.

it's very likely that germany was, will respond to this in the way that it tends to. and has done over the many years that this particular concept has been around in the 7 and a half years that i've been reporting for al jazeera from berlin. i can count several times that such sentiment has been expressed in warsaw. but it never really gets c friendly reception, as it were in germany. because the view from successive german governments has been that the agreement that was made in the early 19 fifties between the 2 communist governments, one of poland, one of east germany, that the polish side would waive their right to compensation in their view was binding. and that as being the view that has pertained pretty much since that point . the other thing to bear in mind here is that if one looks at the map of europe, which followed from world war 225 percent of what had been germany,

was effectively taken from germany and given to poland in some way as reparation to poland for poland, for what germany had inflicted on it's all the, the disaster that the war was for the polish economy for the polish people. there's no question about that, but it is worth bearing that in mind. and it is also worth bearing in mind that whilst we have heard that view expressed by the governing body in poland, the opposition in poland says that they believe that what is being expressed now must also be said, they said this back in 2017. the what's being expressed now is more designed for domestic consumption in poland than as something that might achieve something on an international level. the iraq state of alaska has elected its 1st native american woman to serve in congress. mary pell toller beat,

it again and i think she's really proving to hear that. she still got it. you know, this is a pretty racist country. i think so really about was oh these people sharing were her before the tournament. not many gave serena a chance of winning a record equaling 24 grand slam. but now the perfect hollywood ending might just be on the cards mixed up. she faces the unseated australian. i let him none of that. he folks out 0 balance is a female football fans, and iran of attended amended domestic league game in the capital to wrong women have been found from watching men stretches since the 1979 revolution. only a few exceptions have been made for small groups. on rare occasions.
