coming up in the next 60 minutes. the funeral of the soviet union's last liter mikhail gorbachev takes place in moscow. president vladimir putin is not attending hundreds of thousands, riley and argentina to support democracy after our guns failed assassination attempt on the vice president. nasa's most powerful rock it ever is on the launch pad for its 2nd attempt to head to the moon's orbit. at a new life in a world destroyed pakistan, this devastating floods forced pregnant women and girls to give birth in shelters. and i'm santa, how much would all the sport, including genesis. we know williams news is in the 3rd round of the us open in what's expected to be the last matter of her career. ah,

mourners in russia have been paying their respects to the last leader of the soviet union, mikhail gorbachev. ahead of his burial in moscow, president vladimir putin will not be attending the funeral. on to seriously a haunting reports. thousands have lined the streets of moscow to bid farewell to the last leader of the soviet union. mikhail gorbachev was credited with changing the course of the 20th century by indian. the cold war president vladimir putin has paid his respects, but is not attending the funeral. other western leaders are not attending either. the kremlin has been so far, quite respectful of, of li issues because garbage was not received a strong leader and put in once too and appears to be and, and, and betrays himself as a strong leader. ah, god much. gorbachev was often respected and revered more in the west than at home

in russia. renewal this, when did you just kind of stuff that a moon us one more that highlighted in this television advert from the 1990. i got about you all out unfortunately, what about you did lot may garage about the west because the west didn't want that to happen. war but you're certainly wanted it to happen. he went on to win a nobel peace prize after signing a disarmament treaty with us president ronald reagan, removing a host of nuclear weapons. joe biden sided this achievement in his tribute, saying the result was a safer world and greater freedom for millions of people. the treaty was the beginning of the end of the cold war, one state after another broke away from the soviet union. and it wasn't long before the berlin wall fell cool against it. later came a failed qu by hard liners in moscow. the soviet union itself was dissolved,

and gorbachev resigned and can yet now more than 30 years later, with russia's invasion of ukraine. comes the danger of a new cold war, son on a horse london stell such a president put in russia. hundreds president, digging new trenches in europe and he started a horrible war on ukraine. it's now we think mikhail gorbachev and realize what he did for our country and all of europe. ah gorbachev died at the age of 91 in moscow hospital after 2 years of serious illness. and while he was hailed as a man of peace, he is left at a time of war. leah harding al jazeera. earlier i spoke with co cleary, the former irish times correspondent moscow asked him 1st about president vladimir putin, his failure to attend the death of a farmer and a new thought return instead is always a dangerous times. i recall what happened in china, $989.00 on the challenge square events. i was there for the lead up to about and

they originated from the depth of who, who young bond, who was the reformist leader of the communist party until he was deposed. couple of years earlier when he died that was an occasion for. ready demonstrations that the day which it escalated into channel score, and i am sure the loving fortune has in mind. the dangers of people coming onto a street to commemorate a former who is somebody that russians will remember dog, broken freedom, free press, freedom of information, freedom of demonstration. and i think that's why there is such a heavy security presence on the street today. why is that such a contradiction? do you think in how his legacy is viewed between the former soviet union and the west? he's despised by so many people, then the so he's doing this because he just socio said with the hardships that accompanied the last 2 or 3 years of the soviet union was in the west. the bringing

the coming of gorbachev to the communist party was seen as something that was bringing russia back into the fold after the 7 decades softer. so we junior, when it was closed off from the west. and these know, seen someone who fits since the democratic more who boston wrote about. ready elections, he's not seen on stark contrast to blood him or person who has a match or that information only controlled by the kremlin. the freedom of thought is almost inconceivable. now, because of the way that the still propaganda is yours, the russian back officials in southern ukraine say that europe's largest nuclear power station was knocked off line by shilling on saturday. the reports that an electricity line

inside the plant has been damaged. come just after the visit of the head of the un nuclear watchdog to the facility. let's go live now to keep our cirrus gabriel elizondo. is that for us? one more? do we know about these reports of the block being knocked offline? gape? what we've been looking into this extensively and we're trying to get some more information about this. but the report comes from a or a russian appointed official. and his parisha region a, this official is not someone that is part of the official russian government apparatus, per se. and this person was saying that it was the plant was knocked offline early on saturday, due to in their words, extensive ukrainian shelling of the plant. however, we've been looking into this and we just don't know how credible this is. quite frankly, at this point,

reached out to the ukranian officials. they don't have anything to say about it. and even the ukrainian energy body that overseas nuclear power in ukraine doesn't have anything to say about it either including officials there. so this just does give you an example though of how there can be claims that go back and forth. and this has been going on for a while now. and pretty much anyone can make a claim of anything. and now the difference now though is different from even 4 or 5 days ago a week ago, a month ago, is it, there are still now i a inter international officials act does that parisha clear power plant right now? and so that will give them some sort of sense to monitor things moving forward and as the fail grossi the director general of the i. a said on friday night during a press conference. he said now when one side makes

a claim and the other side denies, it will be there to sort of be able to see what the facts are. well, here we are, we're in a situation where there's claims and counterclaims in the i a is there. we are, it's important to point out that they have not given any statement either on saturday about any sort of power being lost at the nuclear power plant either. so in that sense, we also get the feeling that these reports from this official down and after each region just don't hold much credibility, at least at this point. so what are the challenges facing the i a officials who are now act as you say, app does that you have planned they face so many challenges, but one of them is what we're talking about right now. is it, you know, you're gonna continue to get claims of who is showing where and should there be showing at this apparition, nuclear power plant?

people might be asking a who is responsible? what did you see? is it true with the russian said, is it true? what the ukranian said, and the problem and challenge is that is the, is going to face moving forward is they are not equipped to determine these things . they are not, they don't have a mandate to enforce any sort of d. miller trace demilitarized zone. they don't have the technical expertise in military affairs to be able to determine where did this shell come from? where did this rocket come from? who, who fired it. this is not their expertise, but yet they are now placed in the middle on the front lines and is very critical moment. and they might be asked these questions and they're going to have to figure out moving forward. how do they navigate this very fine line of being independent experts? they're focusing on the nuclear safety issues there, but not get involved in the back and forth of things that, that, that they simply don't have the expertise to answer. i was there is gabriel

alexander reporting live from keith gay, but many thinks indeed at least 10 buildings have been destroyed after a petrol tanka exploded, an organ state in southwestern nigeria report say the truck overturned in an accident. pictures of the aftermath of been posted on social media. there are no reports as yet that he deaths or injuries. hundreds of thousands of people in argentina have come out on the streets in defense of democracy. it follows an attempted assassination of the vice president, christina fernandez, coached up a man pointed a loaded gun and held thursday night. but it didn't go off on to zeros, monica, you're not here for porch from one to start us. ah crowns marching to the beat of drums in the center of when a site is old and young, defending argentina's democracy in condemning thursdays, assassination attempt against vice president. christina fed. none this the kiersten

it? no, no, it isn't. when we get out of it, what happened on thursday was very serious. all democratic rules were broken. we cannot accept political violence. that's where there are so many people here. it is early, there will be of no. this government has been under a series of attacks from strong economic lobby's opposition parties and also the judiciary system, which is working for them. it goes on, i mean i am here to defend democracy and the vice president, but also video shows the moment the vice president was being confronted by her assailant while reading supporters outside her home on thursday night 35 year old fit and, and one that has survived one kid pointed a loaded gun to her face, but apparently it was jammed and she escaped unharmed. latina bitter money, she call me the christina is alive because of some technical reason. we have yet to confirm. the gun with 5 bullets was not fired or although the trigger was pulled by no be 7. if you had the aggressor, a brazilian born man living in argentina since 1993 is in prison,

his house was rated and 100 bullets were found. he had already been arrested in 2001 for carrying a knife. argentine authorities are investigating the reasons behind the attempt, but president out about it off and then this bling the hate speech and argentina, and decreed a national holiday friday. so argentines could take to the streets and unite against violence. were leaders, condemn the attack, including right wing brazilian president, j will. so nato, who was stab during his 2018 campaign and is now running for reelection. while the assassination attempt has raised all sorts of questions about the lack of security surrounding politicians in argentina, political experts say the timing will likely benefit the vice president. the out pouring of support in sympathy has given for none. this a boost at

a time when she needs it most. the former president is being accused of fraudulently awarding public works contracts while she governed argentina between 20072015. prosecutors have asked for a 12 year prison sentence in a lifetime band from politics, but that is unlikely to happen. christina fed amended the kitchen. it is also the president of the senate and has parliamentary immunity. she could only be convicted if she loses her seat in the 2023 elections. monica, and i give al jazeera when a scientist ignacio porthos is a former editor at the point us at is harold. he's with us now live from one us are as good chevy with us once again ignacio, we were hearing. and monica's report the that the gum, the involved in this attempt on the vice president's life may have jammed. understand that there's new information on that is the test on the weapon and show

that the bullets where they are in the magazine of a weapon. but there was no one in the chamber. and this is probably one of the hypothesis is that the shooter was not an expert in guns. he didn't know how to properly load the gun in order to shoot it. or the other possibility is that he didn't want to actually fire at her. so there's what's here that the gun was loaded, but not completely ready to fire, not properly with apple in the chamber to shoot so well would be important is to have his work, but he just refused to declare so far. and authorities are investigating. he's in toronto, he's left movements, he's cell phone to know much more about what led to the attack. what more do we know about him? well, he was born in brazil and he is, he has a junior father and emergency mother, a very unstable background. he's father has a large criminal record in brazil, and brazilian papers have been reporting the he has

a president saw it being involved in drugs in and dr. public document for jerry robberies that he's father, i mean, and the son and also at least one criminal president in argentina last year for having a very large night in. he's an unmarked car in last year and what a side is. so he also has some nazi tattoos in his body. so they are investigating what this would mean and investigated that people can you to understand what, what were his motivations already attack and why, why, what, why he did it a, you know, finding a way to make the fact that so many people came out of the streets on friday night to defend democracy. well, it was an absolutely shocking event so that they may just, there yourself are something really with our president united, the nothing but i've gotten pointed to the face of the most important political

figure in the country are probably more, more important than the president itself. and people were shocked even in a moment, which christina is not that big of her popularity. she's being western for the economy for a week. government for corruption, for many things. well, this pack created an outburst of solidarity among, even among even not among the strongest governments. sympathizers there's the shock is so be that we saw maybe the biggest rally centered several issues before the pandemic. and it has revived a interest in, in political activity in argentina. certainly enter after a time of a how wrong thing was we're going in the country. good terms here going to very soon thanks again for being with us across your ports there and brought us here with a nissan from al jazeera still's come on the program, us plans for a 1000000000 dollar om sale to taiwan, cause anger in beijing. and ah,

how india plans to address the problem of unfinished homes, worth billions of dollars that in sport, defending us open champion marches on a new york sellers here with that little little ah, final preparations are underway for the launch of the awesome. it's one mission, the 1st step to send humans back to the moon. these live pictures of the nasa rocket, where the launch director has given the go ahead to re fuel the vehicle before the launch later on saturday. the 1st attempt failed because of the engine problems earlier in the week. will the ottoman program was announced by nasa in 1917. it'll be powered by the massive space launch system or s at s at 98 meters tall. it's the

most powerful rock it ever built. the a ryan cap. she'll sit on top of the s l. s and will eventually take astronauts deep into space for this flight bow. a crash test dummy will be on board. but in future missions, the capture will take for astronauts to the moon. they'll include the 1st woman at the 1st person of color to walk on its surface. out there is alan fisher is possibly the mom of the best job in television today. he joins us live from florida, a lovely day for it, alex. so here we go. again, the excitement mounts. that's right. hey, we're here on the space coast in florida. the rocket should take off if everything goes well and just under 5 hours time, refueling has started now to get the rocket off the ground, they have to mix liquid or hydrogen and liquid oxygen. and there's a slight problem with the feed of liquid hydrogen at the moment. there is

a leak on a line on the outside of the rocket, not on the inside. and they are trying to fix that. and the last few minutes, the launch director has given the okay for the plan to go ahead and try and get that sorted. could it put it cause a problem for the launch at the moment? they're not talking. and those sort of turns, but clearly they're keeping their eye on things and if they have to they will cancel and possibly reschedule for monday, but there is a 2 hour window this afternoon. the intention is to get that blast off and get it done. i and we know that in that 2 hours there is the potential for rain, about 60 percent chance, and they wouldn't want the rocket if the rain but certainly speaking to nasa officials on friday. they all seem to be very confident that they would be able to get the launch done at some point to day, and artemus will take off. it will take off, as you say, a with 3 crash test dummies. no. take the idea that you see in a car advert of those dummies, banging into walls, and through the out

a compared to what's on the, the rocket, the rubbish, the new ones have got real sensors. so they'll be able to judge how people will be able to respond to the launch. i would there is a captain. men can camp or sues the leader of the operation and to other dummies, called zohar and helga zohar has a protective plate. but hell get wound that is because of course the intention is to send a women on to the lunar surface and so they want to check how radiation would impact her. various things would happen that would be different with a woman's body, and all of that will be told by these dummies. so quite an excite in time, particularly for those of us who grew up during the apollo space missions it remember it was 972 that some one last walked on the surface of the moon. so to be here, 50 years later to cover essentially a moon launch is really something else. yeah, i'm, i'm very envious. and just like the late sixty's nearly seventy's,

thousands of people have descended upon southern florida to watch at the spectacle . i can't make out what's going on behind you there. the people just enjoying a day at the beach or they securing a great place to watch the launch well that we can do both here in florida. of course it is a holiday weekend here, so people will be heading to the beach when the weather is this nice, but there are a lot of people, a lot of people here just to watch the launch and you can see that in the roads all their own here, they're much busier in the hotels in the cafes. that's all people are talking about at the moment is the launch. where is the best place to get a view? they all want to see it because of course it is history in the making. artemus, want to be followed by optimists to which will be a they'll have humans on board and then our to ms. 3. the intention is in 2025, will land on the moon, the 1st steps to creating a base on the moon, which will then act as the place where we prop farther into space and possibly even

send an admission of human beings to mars out zeroes. alan fisher reporting live from southern florida manufacturer did. alan at nasa has a 2 hour launch window. the weather of course, plays a huge role in the success of this launch. let's talk to our in house meteorologist emerson fox is here and he storm clouds on horizon. i don't think was any storm clouds. thankfully, adrian. but you can see from the pictures behind me here that there are some lumpy clouds around cumulus clouds. so you may see a share or 2, particularly on monitor their share could be on the sharp side possibilities in funder as well. so it's yes and no, but i think as we go towards that launch window, it'll improve, you can see all that thick cloud there across southern parts of the u. s. fast where the live, the a weather is in place. still a few showers just found that eastern side of florida at the moment, but the more active weather should stay to the north of that so should not cause

any problems resume in a little closer. you can see whether there has been a fair but a cloud just around the panhandle, just making its way towards cape canaveral. take closer look still and you can see that we, we have got a gentle easterly breeze just feeding in towards k canal. all type takes an apple off the chart here so you can actually see what the weather's doing. we call some showers around very close to the launch fight. but i should diminish as we go on through the dice as we head towards the afternoon. it should brighten up just a gentle breeze, but looking good for the next few hours. adrian. everybody thinks indeed. well, joining us not from dublin in the space journalist leo and right leo as alan fish were saying a few moments ago. this is very reminiscent of the late sixties, early seventies. for those of us old enough to remember it a, do you think that they really are going to be able to put men and women back on the moon within 13 is i think it's unlikely they're gonna hit the targets that they stated publicly and to be honest privately they themselves admit

that it's a stretch to get women and man on to the surface of the moon. if so quickly, i think more likely 2028 for a landing. there will be a woman on board. there will probably be man on a man on board as well, but he could of course be to women and there will also be a person of color. but yes, they are trying to do this, but it's a big ask. and as we see again today with alan reporting problems, again with liquid hydrogen fueling, this is ground all day because this is exactly the problem they've had every time they brought this rocker out to the launch pad and it's fingers crossed because right now they just started again, refueling liquid hydrogen. let's see this time if they can get through it without

another li. why liam's it sun porton for us to go back to the moon after 50 or so years? well, there are a number of very good reasons as the 1st is that a great many people see the moon as a stepping stone to mars. the human expansion out into the solar system is seen by philosophers as inevitable, or even at papers published, suggesting that humanity at this rate could populate the entire galaxy within 5000000 years. the blink of an eye in geological turns. so there are those who argue it's human destiny. others are more to do with the money. a can we use the resources on the moon and to replenish resources that we are completing very rapidly. here are, what excites you most about this mission, the other, some pretty nice experiments on board on the yes i, i think this is going to be

a very interesting mission. as alan was saying, we have these mannequins on board who will perform a very important chest of the effects of radiation on asked, are not going far out beyond the moon on this unusual trajectory of the art fitness program. very different from the apollo visions in the way that it orbits the moon . also interestingly, there was a huge and rupture, a solar storm on the surface of the song the other day. and that really is going to provide if they can get launched today, it would provide extremely valuable data about the amount of radiation that women and men would experience if they were orbiting the moon during a sober stall. you talked of us, her how different the the orbit would be for this craft compared to the the apollo missions. i mean technology has moved on a heck of a lot in 50 years. i mean that,

but will this mission get to the boat any quicker than the apollo missions? did the physics say no? the physic says that it takes about 3 days, whatever way you covered, and to get from the earth to the womb that's just to do with the physics of the art fitness program uses a very unusual orbit for a specific reason. and that is that they want to get to the south pole of the moon, where the ice is, there is water there. astonishingly frozen in the crater floor of the south pole of the moon. vast quantities of ice that can be used to refuel rockets on their way to mars can be used to provide oxygen for astronauts to breathe and fuel to launch rockets. so this is really an extraordinary development, a fairly recent discovery,

and both the americans and the chinese have their eyes on exactly the same place at the south pole of the moon. shackleton krager, named after the great irish explorer, ernest shackleton, lou, it's been really, really good still too many, thanks for being with us. once again, leo and right there in dublin, it with that he is al, from al serra still to come on the program, the gold stream pipeline closed. again. we look at what's at stake for europe and russia. julie will soon vote on the draft constitution that's been described by many as a model for the future. we'll take a look at who adults as it and who doesn't at in sports before me, the one world champion. it's problems at his home gone pre. ah

ah ah sake that he'd been humming and then international anti corruption excellence award boat. now for your hero, lou.

ah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ha. it's adrian finnegan that here in dough. how but the news out from al jazeera, the headlines russians have been paying their respects to the last leader of the soviet union, mikhail gorbachev will be laid to rest on the coming hours in moscow. kremlin says that president vladimir putin will not attend hundreds of thousands of marched in argentina in defense of democracy. they took to the streets a day after the vice president, christina fernandez to kushner, survived an assassination attempt rushing back officials in southern new cray and say that europe's largest nuclear power station was knocked off line by shilling on saturday. it comes to stop to the visit of ahead of the u. m. 's nuclear watchdog

rushes energy giant gas prom says that it will not resume gas delivery through the nord stream, one pipeline to germany after a 3 day shut down. the company says an oil leak was detected and the repairs are needed. the european commission says the move is under fallacious, protect pretenses and shows that russia is an unreliable supply up gas. prom says it will now sent natural gas to europe through ukraine. gas prompt decision came hours after g 7 nations agreed to set a price cap on russian oil in an effort to hurt moscow's war efforts in ukraine. finance ministers from the world's richest economy is also hope that a cap on crude oil and petroleum products will help to reduce global energy prices . russia has responded saying that it will stop selling oil to countries that agree to a price limit. the european economic commissioner, palo genta, loony, says that they won't be threatened by putin's actions. holding the found partial,

who is taking another step towards cutting slides, it would be a violation of the contract. every one hopes that will not happen. if it happens, it is clear that there will be consequences, but it is also clear that we've been preparing for months with his recipe. so we must not underestimate us, but certainly we are not going to be intimidated. so much i'll create is an energy expert and strategist. he joins us now live from washington, dc. it's heavy with us. so how credible a gas proms claims that an oil leak has forced it to shut down the don't stream one pipeline indefinitely. you know, this is not the worst thing that russia using energy, we could get more duplicate, and that's really an energy extort, love to explore foreign policy. and before that are actually using the energy we bought and you and your market place, crochase coming, know that's the best plan for using the reason,

the pressure on there to support for think and saying that a to the cry. and it's in the reality that you have more more option on the table. and without that or then began from, there are russia energy security in the you in the coming, especially in them it, there are serious challenges and the only option for that was more say that they began we duction energy them. and like i mentioned, for the ears to find an alternative to russian gas sutley in the mid term. what about the price of the price of petroleum products from the energy cap? the g $7.00 ministers announced is that gonna make any difference to the price of gas at the pumps? i mean, come cut. countries like india are going to continue on china, buying russian oil on by yeah. as you mention about it after the russian

emission of ukraine and you essentially, again, it's the energy for russia, russia ranking us like you mean they want to measure the consumer and the china to sharing market to to keep it again this sanction and i have to say it's a symbol like pollution and that shows that 27 attempts we drank support the ukraine, some support you create the server high nation and this is not. ready roll in, there's not any good market take on current gas products in the market for the similar and as i mention for the china and the for the, for the other companies to by russia and, but just to companies as well. okay. good. talk to somebody. thanks,

date of shock re there. in washington dc. the president of france or money on the crown has ordered all nuclear power plants and the countries we restarted before winter. the move will reduce pressure on the electricity grid and help to tackle rising energy prices in europe because of the war in ukraine. latasha bottle report style from paris. for several months, more than half of france is 50 sakes, nuclear reactors have been shot for maintenance work, but they will be restarted in the coming weeks. in time for winter, said frances energy minister, after a special cabinet meeting to discuss the energy crisis. condo, hector, from that 30 to react. desert a holt, including some because of corrosion under restrictions, and others for usual maintenance. adf has committed to race, start all reactors, bought this winter. we are following this situation very closely with weekly briefings on we're careful that this timeline is fulfilled. france is one of

europe's top energy exporters and relies on nuclear power for 70 percent of its energy needs. but the shot reactors of pushed up french power prices and fueled concerned that france would not produce enough power for itself or it's european neighbors, as they wind themselves off, russian gas. but pioneer russia says that in addition to restarting the reactors, frances made other contingency plans, louisiana monte ship. the government has been anticipating the situation for several months. we have secured out gusts dogs, they are currently at 92 percent. and so we can now say that we have almost achieved our goal, 2 months in advance. the french president emanuel my call, had called the emergency cabinet meeting. michael has repeatedly said that people in france must be prepared to face a difficult winter. miss asher butler al jazeera paris. here us media is reporting
