a suicide bombing near the russian embassy in kabul. what we know is that the bama detonated explosives near the entrance to the building in the south west and part of the capitol. witnesses say people were lined up outside the diplomatic compound . at the time, 2 members of the embassy staff are among the dead. and as many as 15 others were injured, the new leader, if the u. k. conservative party will be announced in the next few hours. opinion polls suggest foreign secretary list trust, ease the front runner. trust in the former chance vote where she's to not have been campaigning for months to lead. the governing conservatives when a will replace force johnston who will submit his reservation to queen elizabeth on tuesday. well, the new prime minister will inherits a raft of challenges, including on precedence it increases in the price of gas. let's go to joe hall who

is live in london for us. but to our, to go now jenna, before we find out who the replacement to bars johnson is going to be, it has been difficult contest for the policy during what can only be described as a difficult time for the country. give us a bit of background on how we expect things to unfold to day. but it has indeed been a high stakes high drama, almost 2 months long and transition from the old prime minister to the new. and we are, as you say, almost there. now, a couple of hours to wait before the announcement is made. it began, of course on july. the 7th, with the resignation of boris johnson in the fall out of the social party gave to fairy legal parties and gatherings that took place in 10 downing street and in government office officers during periods of pen demik lockdown that gave way to a leadership contest pitting candidates from all factions of

a deeply divided conservative party against one another. whittling them down to this final race between richard su, not former chancellor and least trust the foreign secretary she, as you say, the candidate of the right of the party favored to win this contest to have secured the majority of the something like 160000 conservative party members entitled to vote and the decision of that tiny sliver of the overall electorate will. as i said, we made known in just under 2 and a half hours time now and whoever does when will take overs the leader of the party and then to become the prime minister, taking over from bars johnson after a visit to the queen on tuesday and whether it is trust or indeed, rashid soon act. they have an extraordinary job on their hands and taking over the reins of and trying to unite a party deeply fractured a or events of the last couple of months. a party that is deposed 3 of its previous most recent leaders in the past 6 years,

but also and much more importantly of course, taking hold of a country in the grip of a series of deep domestic crises, spiraling energy prices set to triple by january on 2021 rates, inflation set to hit 20 percent by december strikes across public services and economy already thought to be recession and of course, adding to that the wider backdrop, a war on europe's borders with russia in ukraine. it is a formidable inbox to do list for the next prime minister. okay, thank you for that, jonah hall there for us in london. we'll be hearing from jona throughout the course of the morning. we are expecting that announcement at 1130 g m t and we will of course, have it live here on al jazeera. now we are expected to hear from kenny, a supreme court who are due to deliver their verdict on last month's disputed

presidential election. the hearing is about to convene and the capital nairobi. william router was declared the winner by a slim margin, but then his opponent, veteran, politician rider didn't challenge the result. he said the vote was rigged. let's go straight to malcolm webb, who is live for us in nairobi. so we are expecting a decision on that any minute now. the lawyers representing the various policies are in the, in the supreme court, rebec, presenting, right a re to the other parties involved in this case, waiting for the judges to come into the room and give that judgement following proceedings that have gone for most of the last week the judges have gone through the evidence that was submitted and the responses by the various parties there were allocations of rigging by royal everything is coalition. and louis alleged that there was rigging,

hacking of the electronic voting system and other regularity to cool. we'll have assessed those claims and say, according to a judgement that it made 5 years ago when overturned the results of the last election. even if rigging isn't proved, if the electoral process didn't uphold the constitution, if it was an adequately in line with a constitution, the election can be an old simply on those grounds. as a way to find out what they say, if it's a know the constitution says a has to be re run within 2 months. if they uphold the result. in which william roots, i was announced the winner with the slim margin of victory. then we would expect him to be sworn in the next president of kenya next week. okay, thank you for that. mark web back for us in nairobi. now man, self to sounding the alarm, the un humanitarian chief is warning of famine in parts of somalia. extreme

droughts caused by years of failed rain has displaced more than 1000000 people. well, the 3000000 animals essential to somalia as hostile communities have died and crop production has substantially dropped. the un humanitarian chief milton griffith joins us now live from morgan. he showed thank you for your time sir. this is, i believe, your 1st time in somalia painted a picture of what you've seen since you've been there. what are people experiencing on the ground where everything's in somalia as, as you point out, this is my 1st visit to my shame. we were in by dough, which is likely to be the at the center i'm and if that happens the other day and we, we went to the hospital in that town which is the capital southwest state of somalia

. and we saw the most terrible sights of children severely acutely malnourished on those beds that you just showed with mother or father or both. they moved for days and days and days to get the worrying. thing was that we were seeing those who perhaps were better off than the ones we see. we are having great difficulty reaching the places from which people walk. and this is one of the things that is absolutely necessary and we're calling today to allow humanitarian agents is safe access to those places. so hard to reach, we need to know the extent of the suffering and the need and the stress in those areas. because today, 5 and review committee is warning that we have one last joss, 2 of the areas that i've been talking about. you say in a recent tweet,

i saw babies too weak to cry and mothers who are still children themselves. the silence of the international community is deafening. what did you mean by that? you know, this is climate change which is prism this, this crisis that we see those children suffering from climate change, which is not that a lot of changes just frankly not some money is doing for drought, for seasons of sale to produce rains. we anticipate effect is going to fail later this year and we believe of 6 will fail early next year. that is unprecedented, even in somalia and somalia has had as you know, terrible tragic experiences even in recent as we need help to help the people to somalia. we are also noticing and observing through the wealth food program that the food supply systems in somalia, i'll be getting older. that food availability is simply reducing just at the time

when we need to provide safe food supplementary feeding health care to those people to get them through what we think is likely to happen here in the next months. we wants the world to observe, to listen and to contribute to many, many governments has united states government recently very generously gave money to the humana response program. we need more and we're going to need more through next year. i guess the question is, when we've seen as you say, 5 rainy seasons fail, the next one expected to fail as well. and we acknowledge climate change is having a role in this. is it enough to just keep helping people from crisis to crisis or do we need another solution? i think that's a really, really important question to life saving, which is the core of the humanitarian business. is what we have to do today in

somalia. no question about that. we need to save lives lives which are at great risk bought, or we need to invest in alternative likelihood. so many of the pastoralists, family generations of living off their livestock have no more animals. they have lost their lives sold or die from the droughts, and the likelihood of further droughts will mean that they won't be able to pursue that way of life if they have had the generation. so what we're seeing threatened to the whole of africa as well as elsewhere, but particularly here in the home is a way of life is on the threat. and that means we need to invest in people for an alternative. i went to a site for internally displaced people. you're seeing pictures of it at the moment and by the people have been there for 9 years, 9 years that they have been displaced. and we have still not been able to give them

alternative ways to live and to live independently of humanitarian aid. it's a massive requirement for international attention. i suppose the other challenge when it comes to somalia is that of terrorism. that all millison groups like algae, bob, i was just reading about an, a food, a truck that was targeted just very recently where all the food aid was destroyed as a result of that attack. how do you tackle something like that? well, i think, god forbid, it was a crazy if a poli act to destroy a convoy and kill those people. on the contrary come boys to day. but god's sake, which is a center of what's needed here in somalia. it's true that insecurity in somalia makes it difficult to get humanitarian agencies into the communities where they

live before they move, where they live to deliver services, but that's what we need to do. so we're looking at local partners, somali organizations as usual in the front line, the 1st responders in any metric, isis, somali organizations who will help us understand how to help communities, where they are. when people move, whether it's in somalia or ukraine or any other part of the world when they move, we've already lost many opportunities to help them supply. we need to get to them before they need to move and we need to build services back even even in communities which are under occupational control along groups. even though we do this in many other ups, well, we need to do it here. it's about martha. griff, it's really good of you to join us speaking to us that from the shoe in somalia, the understand that you as monetary in chief thank you.

agent and the entire city of jackson, you know, just not do one individual. and i blame. i'm the, the city council, the governor and the mayor because they're all in confusion. and no one seemed to know how to solve the problem. fema, the federal emergency agency, it's working to end the crisis. inspectors toward this water plant where heavy rains overwhelmed the cities, aging infrastructure. they're hoping to speed up repair work, but play down expectations of a quick return to normality. yeah, i think it's still too early to tell dana, i think that having e p a in the army corps of engineers, we had a really good conversation on friday about what it's going to take him, the assessments that they're doing, the longer term in the mid term about how long it's going to take to actually make it safe to drink. things that we have a lot more to learn about what it's going to take to get that plan up and running. in tens of thousands of homes, water has slowed to a trickle. and what they do get isn't safe to drink. but this isn't

a new problem. state and federal authorities are being blamed for allowing jackson's infrastructure to crumble for decades. jackson is overwhelmingly black and many se rates as a factor. we have been getting punished for quite some time for being a predominantly black city. i can recollect these issues for as long as i've been here and i was born in 1983 and jackson and over time the situation has gotten worse. we are not receiving any funding from the state of mississippi to improve the war. jackson's plight has grown so bad, it's received national attention. local, state and federal authorities are now focused on distributing aid and getting water flowing again. but while the current crisis will eventually be resolved, correcting for decades of neglect will be a longer term challenge. vincent mall had al jazeera
