ah, hello money inside the saudis, there lie some day. ha, also coming up. iraq supreme court dismisses the petition to dissolve the parliament saying it doesn't have the authority to do so. president vladimir putin says, no russian military equipment is in this upper region nuclear plant, contradicting a report by the u. n. nuclear watchdog and calls for urgent help is floods destroy thousands of homes in the don. ah, we start the program with some breaking news, both the voice, his news agency as well as the a f p r. quote, saying the i a e a to report that iran has increased the amount of uranium it's enriching to near weapons grade levels. the quite

a report by the un nuclear watchdog, the international atomic energy agency saying enrichment up to 60 percent has grown by more than 12 kilograms. let's go straight to our correspond dorsey jibari who's into ron joseph. this is indeed true. it is significant. talk us through exactly what it means. what this means is that the world's nuclear watchdog, the international atomic energy agency, is not able to do its job and provide assurances to the international community that iran nuclear program is exclusively a civilian one. it's used for peaceful purposes. the i is going to have the board of governors meeting on monday, september 12th. they have one every 3 months. and during this board of governors meeting, there is a report that is put forth every time by the agency about their ongoing activities . and of course, the iran nuclear file is usually at the top of that report,

this time around as a result of a number of events that are one folded between the agencies cooperation and iranian officials. the agency is now saying in this reports that has been seen by those 2 agencies, news agencies that you mentioned that according to them, they're no longer able to provide reassurances that this countries nuclear program is for a purely civilian purposes. they haven't been able to get the access that they wanted. they also haven't received sufficient responses from the radian officials about 3 specific undeclared sites where the agency has found traces of uranium activity that dates back to the years of early years of to thousands. the reigning officials for their part say they have sufficiently responded to those inquiries, and that the re digging up of those issues the agency is coming up with now about those 3 sites is as a result of political pressure from israel. and as a result of intelligence provided by israel and other countries that don't want to

see iran in a position to be able to negotiate a proper return to that 2015 nuclear deal. now, what does that speak here is that retrieval revival of the 2015 nuclear deal, according to the agencies report that is due out later today to the board members. iran now has a stockpile 19 times the limit that it allowed under the 2015 nuclear. the meaning iran that hi enriched uranium is above the levels that they agree to in 2015. under that agreement, iran was allowed to store 22202 kilograms of 3.67 percent and rich uranium. now, since the united states last the deal in 2018 and pose a series of unilateral sanctions on or on, the officials here ran step by step, withdrew their commitments under that deal and keeping a stockpile of highly enriched uranium was one of those steps they took meaning all this time, they are now adding to their enriched uranium stockpile,

which is staying in the country. this is one of the main concerns of the agency and the trash community. we understand that the negotiations that have been ongoing for many months to try to get back to the deal was these are some of the issues that are at the core of those discussions taking place which has yet to be resolved. as you say, that nuclear deal very much at stake. what do you think is going to happen now? while there's a lot of skepticism inside air on, at the moment about whether or not this deal is salvageable at this stage, there's been a lot of back and forth between the iranian officials and the americans about a drop proposal. they, european union officials have put forth to the 2 sides to try and bring them all back for compliance under the deal. the i. e. a play the crucial part in this because they are the police and all of this to be able to monitor any kind of agreements that they would have between iran and the international community about

its nuclear program. and since 2019 that are on started reducing its compliance, they haven't been able to do their job properly. and this report is one of the most damning that we've seen from the agency, and certainly concerning the general director. rafael grossi has said that they won't be able to do their job properly in terms of monitoring iran, nuclear activities, if there is no return to this nuclear deal. and it seems that right now, that is exactly where things are right. and the iranian officials are adamant that until the united states agree, so their terms and returns to their end of the bargain that they agree to. and more after what they did in 2018. the radians will not agree to come back to the deal because they're afraid the americans will do the same again in when there is another election united states and another administration in washington, dosage of ari that for us into the wrong. thank you. now the developing story,

if iraq supreme court has ruled it does not have the constitutional authority to dissolve parliament saying it must dissolve itself. politicians allied with the influential shia lead a mcdonald, solder had re file the petition. last month off to previous request is rejected. sada support is have been protesting for moms coding for complete, oval whole of the political system and new elections. let's go to our report. a map made up there why he'd say the court has rule that a cannot does though. dissolve parliament. where to from here, is there any indication that this crisis can be resolved for that is probably depending on this take orders of the crisis. whether or not they will bring the price is back to the parliament once again. now the supreme court has just dismissed the case and related it back to the parliament by virtue

of the constitution, according to the supreme court, which says that article number 64 of the constitutions specifies that the parliament can dissolve itself only by 2 ways f. it's dissolved by the majority of law makers within the parliament, or if it is requested by the prime minister and approved by the president of the republic. in both cases, the dissolution of the parliament cannot be implemented unless and until it goes through legal procedures, including a vote by the lawmakers inside the parliament. now, whether or not the stakeholders will go back to the negotiating table to discuss this issue, including the dissolution of the parliament and holding elliot. as we know that this is not the end of the problem because they go beyond that and they have this agreements over even on which legal basis in which laws shall at the elections

or the new elections be held. so now the problem has been brought back to square and to the parliament. the problem with it or not the, the parliament would be able to hold a session to decide whether or not it can dissolve itself. also, the supreme court has a clarified that when the accountant of representatives is unable to implement its duties of for which it has been elected by the people, then it's jeopardizing their sovereignty and the integrity of the whole country. thank you for that math need. i've done what hed speaking to a staff from baghdad. let's bring in a raw sac. he is a research at the university of exeter strategy and security entity. he joined fly from exeter. and he, thanks for joining the program. first, your reaction to what the course is decided. well, i think i'm,

i'm not surprised by this tool because the, this is a political problem. it's not a legal issue. and the underlying legal rationale, the application made by artists, was that completely no basis to it whatsoever. furthermore, it raises an interesting point whereby if most of the saw that is trying to have the result of the last election over time, the old and a new election ordered, then that actually stops at his own legitimacy. because essentially saying that the last elections were in a judgement and as we know he was the one and his block, they're the ones that won the largest number of seats. so really, what does that say about him? and what does that say about his political strategy? my guess is that it's just another ploy, and it's another attempt by mom for the southern at that power. what do you think is going to happen next? oh, here's the thing, i mean, judging by the pressure that's apparently been levied against the solder by senior

clerics like i had the largest done and apparently back pressure was added on also by iran saying that, you know, if the status quo is not maintained, it's not not preserved, and this is going to spell for chaotic target in period in iraq. so i don't think that this is going to escalate too much. i mean, we may see over time to st. protests, demonstrations. but it looks like saw that is wins, have been clipped. a little bit, and i would imagine that you would try to make another come back despite the fact that he's announced yet again, his retirement is probably the 6th or 7th time in recent memory. okay, i'm probably out of time, but good to get your thoughts, toddler, of the rock. research of the universe fix to strategy and security institute tend to russia now, where president vladimir putin has made a wide ranging speech eastern economic for him. he touched on the sanctions

energy and the war in ukraine. he rejects the un nuclear watchdogs report on the zachary's. your palace station in ukraine. denying russia has military equipment, fillasy off to be a cold for a demilitarized zone around. what is your largest nuclear tones? you also said that western sanctions against russia had backfired and now threaten the whole world. you do so newly hurt because of the sanctions from the west have been an aggressive attempt to get other countries to follow certain models. there are questions are and sovereignty and subordinating to their will. these are policies which have been carried out for decades. but there's been slipping away of us domination. they haven't been able to see the objective fact. if we look at recent times, the entire system of international relations is going through tectonic change in a presentation called price gap on russian gas. something the g 7 has agreed to. the ear is considering a dumb idea. meanwhile, european commission,

president of the land has laid out a plan for you to tackle the energy crisis. we aim at lowering the cost of gas and therefore we will propose a price cap on russian gas. of course, the objective is very clear. we all know that our sanctions, deeply grinding into the russian economy with heavy negative impact, but putting its partially buffering through fossil fuel revenues. so here the objective is we must cut rushes, revenues, which put in uses to finance is atrocious. war and ukraine. well, let's get more with our correspondent and dominant cane in berlin. let's talk a bit more in detail about this, russian gas price cap. all members of the you likely to be on board with this idea

to listen to the front line president the commission that you would think that there was unanimity of purpose right across the board from all member states where we know that isn't really the case. we know that the hungarian government has been an active negotiation, signed to deal with russia for more gas in the course of the last weeks or so. we know also that the check industry minister has said that he believes that what's being proposed is more about sanctioning russia further than about coming up with a realistic solution to the energy crisis in europe. we also know that the association or the represents the european electrical industry says that the proposals part of them any way to go off the profits of companies that generate electricity, not through gas, is not the way to go. so whilst as clear alignment of many of the governments of the larger states there are outlying states and outlying industries, who look upon these ideas. and i'm not entirely convinced,

but certainly at the institutional level. as all systems go, try to impose caps wherever possible that appears to be what they wants to do. okay, thank you. that dominic came for us in berlin of latin pearson also keys ukraine of cheating, developing countries out of grain shipments by sending its harvest to the european union visor to you. crimes, president call that claim groundless. last week. a ship carrying 23000 tons of ukraine grain arrives in east africa. i've used issues you can use if, if we did everything we could to get this ukrainian grain out. we did this with turkey is the result. if we remove turkey as an intermediary, virtually all the grain was brought not the poor country but to the european union world food program speaks of the need for the poor country. on the $60000.00 tons of production, just 3 percent went to developing countries. persons new leader, less trust is held her 1st prime minister's questions in parliament on her 2nd day

government to, to meet the dinner and have the same way how dias, i, she's job and other service organizations are being treated now. it's never been as they've been in government has not responded to the. ringback complaint on the wrong side. and on the other hand, this year has been a year full of sort of a claim to have a talk. and, you know, i mean government institutions in, in june they have also claim to have a bomb being fire bonding. and maybe 3 bases. and on the other hand, what happened is that in july, 2022, i've been in goodman websites were hacked until the there is no group thing the

responsibility. but the today for some reason they are bringing government, came into a conclusion on the fact that that came from iran at least 15 people, mostly women and children have been killed in a landslide in western uganda. heavy rain triggered the slide in the town of ca, sissy. several houses have been buried on demand. irene now casita is the spokeswoman. the red cross, uganda, she says, rescue had saud away. we received the rainfall and that people 2nd very didn't process a district experienced airline flight, which buried scores of people. and we got our response action teams go to the last around 4 am today, and i immediately we did 15, but of course it was had to work in the we, i was considering that there was no lighting, but by early morning that's such a risk. your team was on ground and they've been able to retrieve 15 bodies today

and my jury to these mothers and children. and they really have to understand because there were sleeping and a marking. there were helpless. so it's still happening. but many were buried. and rob was on the rescue team has had to dig them up from from there. and as i speak right now, they base a playground way and they did bodies. i've actually been assembled and there was nothing team has come from that district or say to be able to conduct the assessment rather the post modern mind. i'm so sure that would be kind of what did they have for ladies for burial today? it's quite said that it's likely that normal people might 4, but might be found life because those who were injured actually that 6 of them were referred to today in the morning to hospital. but then the community may show that 18 people had been missing. so meaning if we've gotten a boat 15, so we have visit, maybe a likelihood of 3 more people. but it's still possible that the before the life

considering the kind of tragedy and that you spent on the scene. so most likely the search and rescue is going to dig deep into my and it's not likely that somebody is alive from that time of the instance. i for now rescue relief operations are taking place in the southern indian city of banga larue after torrential rain. there boncey, rains that began on sunday swept the city, which is known as indians, tech hub, which log streets, crated traffic, chaos, power outages and shortages of drinking water. many people urged to work from home . putney. michelle is in bungler and says life has been disrupted for many inundated with water homes like these are now empty as residents leave in droves. we are one of the worst effected areas in the city of bengal. lou it is india i to help. and in fact, this is home to many of those offices start ups and global tech giants like adobe and amazon. and many of the people who live in homes like these work in these areas
