1:02 pm
rock founded out, loses at a grand slam for the 1st time. this year the spanish was stunned by american frances cfo in the full round at flushing meadows. ah, hello and welcome. we start this news out in the united kingdom, where outgoing leader boris johnson has arrived in scotland to officially hand his resignation to queen elizabeth. earlier he addressed the media outside downing street saying he's proud to have served the country and he called on his supporters to rally behind the new conservative leader list trust. who will also see the queen and be asked to form a new government or toss has several challenges ahead, including a worsening energy crisis and struggling economy. it's time for politics to be over plugs. it's time for us old get behind lives, trust a team on how to program
1:03 pm
a deliver for the people of this country. because that is what the people in this country want. that's what they need and that's what they deserve. i'm proud to have discharged the promises i made to my policy when you were kind enough to choose me winning the biggest majority since 1987. the biggest share of the vote since 1979 delivering rex it delivering. our manifesto could be included by the way, including social club reforming social care, hoping people up and down the country, ensuring the britain is once again studying tool in the world. a space to jonah how his life rests in london bars. johnson and lead strossberg do to meet the queen in balmoral. tell us why they're there and then talk us through the rest of the timeline of events today. bars johnson has touched down
1:04 pm
up in aberdeen in scotland. he'll be making his way to probably very close now about moral the queen's highlands retreat, where she has spent the summer. of course, ordinarily he'd be beating her here at buckingham palace, just a short distance away across james's park. she though the aged monarch 96 years old is suffering we're told by the powers with ongoing mobility issues. so she hasn't left balmoral the politicians have to instead go to her boys. johnson will enter through the front door in about 20 minutes or so to officially tender his resignation to the queen. he will exit out the back door essentially as nothing more than a back bench and p making his way separately, back to london. and in the brief height is the 40 minutes or so before this trust goes in, executive power will briefly rest with the queen. list trust will then be invited to form a government, a cabinet, completing her appointment, essentially to power. she would agree of course, and then come back here to down the street to make
1:05 pm
a speech and into the doors of number 10, immediately to set about confronting the huge challenges. see faces in this country and energy crisis, a cost of living crisis. but 1st of course, i think about finalizing the composition of her cabinet. and here's a bit of historic news for you. she will become no, just the 56 u. k prime minister. she will be not just the 3rd female prime minister, if reports are correct, they will be no middle aged, white men in any of the top 4 offices of state and her cabinet. very good to know that. thank you for that joint hall there for us in london. we can get a little more analysis on this. we can speak to g, been some days than the economist on political scientists researching inequality at kings college london. thank you for joining the program. let's start with a little background on live trust people who are maybe not so familiar with her. a last row with of course u. k. foreign sex, theresa, she had a political profile internationally. she is also the tore parties,
1:06 pm
longest serving senior cabinet minister. how will this prepare her for the job in hand? was she sally, as experience in the cabin as sunny, shifted her position throughout her time in office? be sure that she started off as being a remainder ended up being a clair briggs, a t thought i was a liberal camera that ended up fighting the cultural as what led trust is really done throughout her time in office is really pitch her kind of example of what you wanted to say to what the conservative party membership wanted to hear during this leadership election, telling them that actually they just caught taxes. everything will be fine. we'll go to a land of plenty. and of course, that isn't the case. the huge long term challenges this country faces require a lot more than lower taxes, will less talk about some of those challenges facing her as to becomes the new p. m . she comes to power, of course, and a pretty grim times, the united kingdom and country with the highest inflation in the g 7 and looming recession. of course, the energy crisis. what can we expect from her in the coming days and weeks?
1:07 pm
well, certainly, roy, i mean, we face a catastrophic rise in energy bills. a long time. challenges has of stopping using older rely on oil and gas for own energy on top of applesauce. prices in relationships with the european median of what this trust so far seems to offer is basically fairytale economics, low taxes meeting, and sewing out all of our problems. steven, their energy price freeze at this point in time. the stock is going to be paid by could cbs over the next 10 to 20 years, rather than entity producers who will see profits of over a 170000000000 pounds. and on top of that kind of a version of told to politics, but she tends to blame other people when things go wrong, whether it be the woke lead or indeed the european ged. and you put that together will be families, have been to see that end up pay. the price will be ready right now as a prime minister who will be an adult? yes, it joy energy, my saliva paid by an extra tax on width for an actual winful tax on energy companies and sure that in the future out bills get low to
1:08 pm
a massive expansion of renewables and she finally get breaks it down. so good. this is kind of best and this country can grow in the future. i'm gonna pick you up on that economic policy point. because if she does go with some of the things she's been deb recommending, if you like, they will be some of the most significant shifts in u. k. economic policy in a long time. if she, if she continues the way she's been at, has been full costing. i mean she, she's muddled herself on thatcher. but her economic policies are perhaps closer to ronald reagan. this idea of trickle down economics aware it's, it's okay to cut taxes for the rich because it will trickle down to the poor. i mean, how, how extraordinary will it, will that be if, if she does implement policies like that, what it will be basically, the british bar here, british academy, that will end up paying for it in the long run. at the moment i caught it, but pulled to tax rises, the average probably gets about $400.00 pounds. there is the richest part,
1:09 pm
the st. getting well over 2000 pounds on top of that corporation. tax costs that help those businesses that are making profits we're seeing going to see a huge interest overall. the huge increase of redistribution to kind of the richest people as well as kind of the most wealthy companies. and certainly, as we go into this winter when companies do face going to the wall through higher energy prices, it's not what's going to get us get us through it. and the longer term was while lower taxes do not lead to kind of more prosperity about was the case. if all we needed was lower taxes in somalia would be richer than sweden. that clearly is not the case we need to have and shall we have a long term investment in this country's future. not just our energy by the way, but also of course, our education and also living in this country has clearly been an issue for, for too long to run. sounds good to speak to an economist and political scientist as speaking to as they're from king's college london. thank you. thank you very much. now, southern pakistan, thin province is among the worst hit from the recent monsoon floods. its lakes and
1:10 pm
rivers are at risk of overflowing, and more rain is predicted in the coming days. said bas ravi reports from da do. district. the floods have turned the edge of open fields and since profits into the shorelines of an inland sea. a staging point for rescue missions. shuttling people to safety those from the district. now wait and worry for the ones left behind. the village after village underwater. only the tops of trees and buildings visible. people who are still here are completely surrounded, living as castaways in their own homes. now are still children here. the floods came and we couldn't get the children out. we weren't able to save anything. now we duck. yeah. houses have fallen down. we are suffering a law. what should we do?
1:11 pm
the government must help us. food is running out and they are stranded. but refusing rescue where animals represent wealth, to leave them behind, is to lose everything. dirty boat. fierce how long ago you were doing in there. not a lot of steve's here. if we leave the house, we will be robbed. if they steal the plates and dishes we eat from than what will we do would endanger here. but if we go to another place, our lives will be endangered there as well. and there will have nothing to eat will die of hunger, hungary here, or hungry there. at least here they say in whatever remains of their home, they still have their dignity. it is a decision that isn't taken lightly. they are aware of their circumstances. there are sick and injured among them and they know more water, more rain is coming up, standing here, it really feels like you're looking out at a see. but those are flood waters and they have devastated the houses in this
1:12 pm
village, the destruction the debris. it all really speaks for itself. now there were about a 1000 people living in this village before the floods before the monsoons. now there's only about a 100, mostly men, the elderly and a few children, and they're here to take care of what little property they have left. as we leave, our boat gets stuck on the roof of a house. a man swims across to help push us out of the floods may have taken their lives and property, but not their need to take care of each other. while we are talking developments in several areas across pakistan, we'll speak with come all hider, who's in southern punjab province shortly. first, let's get the latest with zane was raleigh who isn't just thought about district in just on saying i believe you've reached flood victims invalid. just on how people doing the well, just to give you
1:13 pm
a sense of exactly where we are most of religious don province has for weeks been accessible only by helicopter. but these little remote areas, these towns on the border between thin and below, just done. you can still drive to these areas interval are just on province and a situation. the circumstances here are also very dire. i'm going to draw q numbers that you just to give you a sense of the scale of the devastation, wherein jumper about district in a small town called there a layer. it is surrounded on all 4 sides by water. there about $7700.00 village is said to be a part of this area. $5600.00 of them are partially or completely submerged. so it really gives you a sense of how much devastation people are experiencing. we've seen people sitting on the side of the road. we've seen, houses submerged, people trying to save whatever property they have, but trying to put it up on the walls onto the high parts. that is still just a little bit above water. so the circumstances here are very, very difficult for the people that are in these remote little order towns between
1:14 pm
provinces. everyone we spoken to says the same thing. they feel that below just on province 40 percent of the countries land mass, but only 6 percent of the population. about 12 or 13000000 people. they say they feel like they're on the fringes of the economy and the society in general. and now they say they feel they're on the fringes of receiving any sort of relief during the flood crisis. everyone we've spoken to says any relief that comes bay are not getting at the poorest of the for not getting it. and that could be because of 2 reasons. either this relief simply isn't enough. it's being so quickly absorbed by the people who need it. there's just not enough coming in or whatever is coming because of the top down system going from federal to provincial to municipal to the feudal lords and then to the people below them that is not trickling down quickly enough. a lot of people blame corruption, a lot of people blame favoritism. and one really interesting point that might be worth mentioning, the chief of army staff is in baluchistan today. he's been touring this province
1:15 pm
and the flood zones in this province earlier today. and one of the messages we had from one of the people who spoke to us was that the international donors should not be giving a directly to the government. they should give it to the military so that the military can distributed to the people. now, whatever the politics of that one might think it shows you that people are losing trust in the ability of their governing bodies to help them react during this crisis. okay, thank you for that same bus robbie there for us in baluchistan. let's turn to come all haida, who is live in lay in southern punjab. i want to start by asking you about this lake, which his, which has pockets on the biggest lake i believe which pockets on authority to trying to stop from bursting. what is going on there? when months are leg, it should be remembered is one of the largest. in fact, the largest fish 40 a water body and focused on. and of course, right now,
1:16 pm
it is bursting a day that that, that it is going to bust its bank because it did overburdened by all the flood water that are coming from the north. if you see the water behind me is that water from the end? large border water bodies, sorry, tribe towards the province of sin, many drained into that lake, and i did what is causing the huge problem because in a spot are several religious in banks gave in. the religious are definitely gone by given here in southern pun job, where the waters are now receding. people are complaining that they did not get they had, they wanted. they were able to evacuate their families. we are trying to see one of the family that we had, we had with dave back in 2010 when the flood drug, they were also cut off by water. then of course, they were telling us that they took their family out of the announcement.
1:17 pm
announcements were made that people should immediately evacuate. now the biggest take right now is the area that now infested with mosquitoes because they have now breeding grounds in the stagnant water. they've been seeing dead corpses of buffalo and cars floating by. and of course, that is kate of disease. so right now what we have seen in the southern pun, job region, the water dog indeed receiving. but the crops are gone on a cotton crop, sugar cane corn all gone. and he's a bull farmer joe game for the future or that you heard and then, but a lot of god giving a don't need to their favorite. many people are left out. they're still waiting, and most of them are surviving on their own. pretty di, a picture you paint back my height at that for us in layer and job. thank you.
1:18 pm
plenty more ahead on the news hour, including more on why the taller bonds acting health minister is holding tubes in iran and typhoon minima carries heavy rain to japan. and north korea all to leaving a trail of destruction. and so in school we look ahead to the start of the champions league with title holders. we're madrid in action one day. ah, now the un nuclear watchdog says a back up line supply, ukraine's up a region nuclear power plant has been deliberately disconnected from the grid to extinguish a fire. international tommy energy agency says the connection has not been damaged . ukrainian staff operating the facility, say it will be reconnected once the fire has been extinguished. facilities controlled by russian forces. 4 main lines were lost earlier in the conflict. the
1:19 pm
operation plant is near the city of ana huda and 7 ukraine. it has 6 reactors, and it usually generates nearly half of ukraine's nuclear power. months of attacks heightened the risk of damaging the plans electricity grid. radioactive material could be released if the plans cooling system fails with unreliable backup generators. now the worst case scenario is explosions could also destroy the plans, so called reactor containment structure. that would allow high radiation levels to escape into the atmosphere making nearby areas dangerous to live in for decades. that speak to robert kelly, he's a former director at the international atomic energy agency joins is now light from vienna. thank you for joining us in the program. this is a slightly complicated story for people to understand. but if i understand it correctly before the war, there were 4 external power supplies to this operation plant. as up a few days ago,
1:20 pm
there was only one remaining power supply, which now too has been switched off. so we understand that line as i was reporting, it has not been damaged, but it hasn't yet been reconnected. so how significant is the loss or temporary loss of this final external power supply to the plant? first thing we need to get to clear is that the 4 lines that were destroyed or lines going out of the plan. remember, this is a great big electricity generating plant and they're selling electricity to various customers. those are the lines that were damaged early on. there's also a smaller line bringing electricity in from plant, and i can find some kind of a cold or oil plant that is keeping the plant going, giving the cooling system score a plan also generates its own work. and so one of the things is happening right now is it's generating electricity to keep itself cool. and they're also supplying energy to the town. they're of america no far. so i think the situation being
1:21 pm
a little over a long right now as to what the service was also if there were some sort of a meltdown plant. it's no worldwide disaster and that's history and over over hiking. that's interesting. you mentioned this that was operation is now using its own power to operate many saying that's not ideal, but you, you don't think so. not ideal. obviously you'd rather have a redundant source from outside. but there, so only a couple of sources that they can use. the outside which they say they're going to reconnect their own electricity generation, which they've been doing since march, and the diesel generators, which is definitely a last resort. what we're seeing play out here is this is the, maybe the final stage of the energy war. both sides want to capture this plant intact for after the war war is result and both sides are trying to make sure the other side can't use the on the in the meantime. and what happens at the plant has
1:22 pm
to rely on its own power supply for a lengthy period. what are the dangers of that you're dealing with a situation where the plant is producing so, so little electricity, it's not efficient. and so what they would like to have is they'd like to be able to have other customers besides themselves, so they can operate to plant at a higher level that the children generators operating efficiently. also we need to remember that there are 4 other operational reactors there. number 6 is one that's working right now. 5 is also available and 2 is supplying electricity to itself. early in the war early in the table. it's interesting, you are a former director of the i a a they are 2 offices from the i a, a now based at the plans. what exactly is their role? is it reassuring that they are there? i i'm amazed at the, i hear less those people. they're sort of human shields,
1:23 pm
we don't really know what their background or what their abilities are, but if they're not able to tell us what's going on and they're just sitting there in a very, very dangerous situation of their own. it was very strange for the i a, the tank 14 people into this area for only 4 hours. the majority of them walked around for 4 hours and we left the country in the big hurry. that was a very risky thing to do for very little interesting to speak to you and get your perspective role. but kelly, a former director of the international atomic energy agency, speaking to us from vienna do now ukrainian officials say they have regained control in a village in the castle. a region video obtained by the reuters news agency appears to show the ukranian flag at the entrance of the building in bicycle peoria. now president laudermill and ski says progress is being made in the battle for the
1:24 pm
southern region and a pro kremlin official in the area as plans for referendum on the castle and region joining russia are currently on hold because of the security situation. meanwhile, the city of slow vans in ukraine's east red cross officials have accused russia of committing war crimes. off to their offices were hit in a rock at a tank. it is the 2nd time in a week that the premises have come on the fire. nobody was hurt in either strike. one knows me emergent or it's hard for me to talk about because i don't understand them. but i can tell you the break and all the rules of war, which you, this is a violation of the geneva convention. this is a war crime at that guy who gabriel elizondo, who has lived for us in k. gabriel, you've just returned from care song, bring us up to date on the situation that well, we're a little over a week into this counter offensive by the ukrainians in the song region. and it's
1:25 pm
important to point out that the ukrainians are being very cool about what information they release due to operational security issues. that's very normal. nevertheless, however, we are getting a better sense of how this counter oper counter offensive is going. and it's a very complex one, ukrainians are trying to to retake her. so not only had a stone region which had a pre war population of about 1000000 people. but the key for the ukrainians is retaking henderson city, which had a pre war population of about 400000 people. we think it's a little about about half of that now the ukrainians are approaching on on 3 different axis. and what we're getting a sense of now is they've esentially trapped about 20000 russians soldiers on the west side of the ne pro river on the other side of the negro river from where her some city is and what the ukrainians have been doing for several weeks now is
1:26 pm
hitting russian supply lines continuously over and over again. trying to trap these 20000. we believe about 20000 russian soldiers so they can not retreat backward or they can not get any sort of supply back in the supply lines. ammunition and what have you, that they need the ideal the what the ukrainians are hoping is. and the word of one ukrainian military commander that i spoke to. he said in these are his words. he said we're trying to suck kate the russian forces. after that, the cranes are hoping that they can approach henderson city. but it is going to be a very, very difficult fight. because we're told that harrison city is heavily fortified and, and russian soldiers and paratroopers are entrenched very deeply in that city and prepared for potentially a very, very difficult fight there on all sides. so this going to be an operation that last many months, according to the ukrainians. it's not going to be fast. they said they simply need
1:27 pm
more arms and weapons from the west. but already we're seeing some sort of successes for the ukrainians. have said they've already taken a couple of villages and her son region and also rushes plan to hold a referendum in. sean appears like it's been stalled, at least so far with a russia appointed official and harrison saying that the fighting is just too strong right now. to hold any sort of referendum, he then walked that back a little bit. but bottom line is we are getting a sense that at least the initial stages of the counter offensive seem to be going fairly well for the ukrainians. but it is going to be a very slow process and a very slow operation overall. okay, thank you for that. gabriel. amazon do that for us in keith, still ahead on al jazeera, one of 2 brothers has been found dead after they were identified as suspects. and
1:28 pm
a series of deadly stabbing attacks and in school will tell why this new chelsea play was wearing a mask ahead of their champions late ah . with hi there, good to be with you. there is a number of weather makers out over the atlantic check in some rain toward the islands of ireland and britain. so that batch of wet weather moving eastward into the low country. so it's put a cap on temperatures in brussels twice 7 degrees. this energy also sliding across france. so watch what happens in paris. you go from 28 down to 23 degrees on thursday with some thundering down ports off to the balkans in 4 south central bulgaria plugged in province. we had some flooding there that created quite a mess. there were intense bands of rain over romania bulgaria that shifted over
1:29 pm
the black sea. and we can certainly see it in turkey's forecast on tuesday, right across the black sea coast as some showers in store for you. other side of the mediterranean right now, some showers, the northwest of spain, northern portugal, but through the day that activity will peter out off to africa and are seasonal rains around chad. these have been some of the worst and decade so streets that people used to walk and drive down, or they now need to take boats through most of this rain on tuesday anyway, has leaked into nigeria and off to southern africa, we go actually south africa, those winds quite strong, just off the coast of the eastern cape, but throughout the day they will begin to die down. that's a snapshot of your weather. we'll see you soon. ah ha ah.
1:30 pm
1:31 pm
ah, welcome back you watching al jazeera reminder. i'll top stories this hour or is johnson has arrived at balmoral castle to submit his resignation as u. k. prime minister to queen elizabeth. the new conservative leader is trost is also in scotland and will meet the queen to be invited to form a new government. what is being diverse and for pakistan's largest lake, which is expected to flood thousands of villages in the south. several areas remained cut off by the floods there, a phase of disease from stagnant muta, the you and nuclear watchdog says the backup line supplying ukraine's operation nuclear power plant has been deliberately disconnected from the grid to extinguish fire. ukrainian stop operating the facility, say it will be reconnected once the fire has been extinguished. a european
1:32 pm
countries have scrambled to respond to surgeon gas prices off to russia. shut down a key pipeline to europe. french president, pneumonia mike wrong is urged every household to control their gas and electricity use. micron says the government might consider forced energy savings in the coming months if the voluntary measures on sufficient. meanwhile, germany is announced on monday that it will keep to if its remaining nuclear power stations on standby to whether the energy crisis. no, a brenda is the executive editor with energy intelligence. he joins us from london . thank you for joining the program. now, a variety of measures announced by european countries try and mitigate supply issues. will they help i mean, certainly any of these measures will will help. i mean, the question is really, are they enough? and that's could on see impossible to answer until we see how effective they are. are these countries able to get their citizens their industries, to, to save power,
1:33 pm
to save gas? to the extent that is necessary, we talk about alternative gas sources from places like no way or and, and g gas. but for those energy dependent countries, the north stream one pipeline, it's like an all tree, isn't it? it's hard to replace, at least in the short run. it really is, i mean, particularly for countries like germany who have, who have really built their energy systems around the volumes that were coming in from, nor extreme that we've seen. germany tried to diversify into l and g and build some commission, some additional terminals. those won't be on until later on in the year. but yes, i mean, north trim to really is an energy artery for, for these countries. so where do you see energy prices going increasing price is inevitable, as long as we continue to have sanctions on russia in place. well, i mean,
1:34 pm
we've actually seen gas prices here in europe falling today, but let's be honest, let's not kid ourselves. we're not going to see that the cheap prices that we were seeing say, just a year ago with the, the risks with the conflict between russia and the west. i think europe is in for a longer period of, of elevated prices. and whether that for in particular, natural gas and potentially electricity as well just simply because of the role of gas in generating power and the role of gas in setting the price for power, which is what you is going to try to address later on this week and i think we're going to all get tired of hearing the phrase winter is coming. how real? all the possibilities of civil unrest in some countries as the pain really starts to hit look, i wouldn't predict civil unrest necessarily. but what i would say is, we have seen
1:35 pm
a much kind of more realistic view from, from politicians and from governments over the past couple of weeks. it went from, you know, don't worry, power and gas will continue to be available to ok. we need to save more, let's everybody try to chip into look, there are some real potential for shortages here. so i would say citizens, industries throughout europe are facing a much graver situation than perhaps what was being characterized even just a month ago. when a good to talk to know a brenda executive editor with energy intelligence speaking to us from london now the u. s. has calls for accountability, the israeli military admitted for the 1st time that out as their agenda sharina block lay was likely killed by one of its soldiers. but the army will not launch any criminal investigation. post indian officials,
1:36 pm
human rights campaigners and terrains family have criticize the report. natasha getting reports from ramallah. the pursuit of justice for sharina abu clay within israel ended on monday. as widely expected. the israeli military announced its soldiers did not violate procedure, and there will be no criminal investigation into her killing while on assignment in the janine refugee camp in may. a senior military official offered condolences and called sharon's death, a devastating loss of life. the military report concluded that after multiple internal investigations, there was a high probability and his really soldier accidentally shot serene. but it could not be determined conclusively. the official says with 100 percent certainty is really soldiers did not target serene or any other journalists that day. and if in
1:37 pm
israeli bullet killed her, it was a mistake. but that will them, it's not convincing. it's unacceptable. there's no other suspect, but the occupation army murdered cheering. the military describes the jeanine refugee camp on the day. sharon was killed as a battle field. it says there was a prolonged gun battle with armed palestinians. the soldiers retreated to vehicles and the military official says they had limited visibility and did not see sharina just video from the minutes before sharon's death show a com seen. she was wearing a clearly marked blue press, black jacket that she was shot in the back of the neck below her helmet, even as she collapsed to the ground. witnesses who tried to assist her, say, the gunfire continued shooting, how will abuse become an international symbol, and that is why her blood became a heavy burden and criminal, political, and diplomatic terms. they can't handle this. that is why they're trying to manage
1:38 pm
the fall out of her murder. sharon's family says it's obvious is really war. criminals can't investigate their own crime. it's calling on the u. s. to conduct an independent and credible investigation into the palestinian american journalists killing. the palestinian authority says it's pressing international bodies for accountability and l. g. zero's legal team plans to submit a case with the international criminal court at the hague. sharon's case may be closed before the israeli military, but her family says our dear, serene, cannot be swept aside. natasha can aim elsie's 0 ramallah. well, to sara has released a statement on the report saying it's an attempt by these rarely occupation forces to evade criminal responsibility for the assassination of sharina of walkway. the network denounces israel's failure to admit its crime on its attempt to evade
1:39 pm
prosecution of the perpetrators. i'll de zera demands an independent international body, investigate the crime of the assassination of sharina obliquely to establish justice . now the taliban is acting health. minnesota has called for increased health care cooperation between afghanistan and iran. he is in it to her on for talks with officials from iran's health ministry. the taliban government has been struggling to improve of con histones health system, due to sanctions and a reduction in donor aid as k to dorsey jabbar here is live for us in toronto's, iran, of course, as a massive boda with afghanistan. but what is the relationship since the taliban took control? well, the 2 countries are certainly not at war with each other. they share about a 1000 kilometer border african center is just east of iran and officials here when
1:40 pm
