welcome to the program. 89 people have been killed off to the boat sank off the coast of syria. most of those on board were trying to escape lebanon's economic crisis. funerals have been held for a 2nd day in the lebanese city of tripoli, for those who died. as many as 150 people were on board the small boat. when i went down, the lebanese army says it's arrested a man. it suspects of being behind the smuggling operation to italy. then a hunter has the latest from beverage. more bodies were found along the syrian coast to day, bringing the dust told to 8989 people. now dead. the process of identifying the bodies has begun. those bodies that have been identified have been brought back to lebanon. but this is not going to be easy because some of the bodies were in the water since thursday. so the identification process takes much longer dna test for me that needs to happen. now,

many of the people on the boat were palestinian refugees and syrian refugees. now in the past, the last boat tragedy, the majority on the boat were lebanese. this just shows you that whether it's a lebanese national, a syrian refugee or a palestinian refugee, people are desperate. they've seen these tragedies in the past. they've seen a boat's cap size and my grins gone missing yet they take this dangerous journey. and a short time ago, i spoke to ruler amena, who is a senior communications advisor at the united nations refugee agency. she explains desperation and hopelessness, a driving people to leave lebanon. people aren't aware of the risk, and yet they take these jones. we have seen the number of people attempting to divide the number of ports, douglas from 21 to play compared to 20. and that number 2, if you compute it from january to september, 2022,

that shows how people are in order to protect it. and to provide just to remind that you were in there with the 90 percent, that the under the public to line in lebanon, where the 90 percent of the packages being an extreme poverty. these up, this says a lot about the situation and what needs to be done to help these people. what we call work is for the data to national for the data line and what we call responsibility shane international community, month to month. not only to improve conditions for reputations in the community that but it also must provide what we call safe legal ways for these people to be able to move to a country where they have a better chance perspective. there has to be a wind by the stakeholders,

whether it's the countries, whether it's conflict need but in countries and regional and international, who have a lot of say, usually. and there is so much money that they put to a few and sometimes the conflict. some that has to be consensus that it's time to stop. we have to think we have to result the current conflict and we have to be able to give people who we have to be able to tell them that they don't need to get these dentures to iran, malware president abraham racy, says, protest against the government must be confronted decisively, the demonstrations were triggered by the death of a 22 year old woman, while in police custody in iran has restricted internet services to clamp down on descent. victoria gave me reports the 8 consecutive nights people into iraq have to fight authorities to protest. david,

the death of matter, meaning the 22 year old, died in custody last week after being arrested by so called morality police sheed allegedly violated the country's policy on head scarves ah, similar protest to spreading across iran in the northwest in city of ocean of a demonstrate is defied a warning by the rainy naomi that it would confront what it cooled enemies of the state. similar protests were held in the western city of kurama, but he ran his limited internet services to clam down on the growing descent. the problem is if they switch off the, the access to international networks to the global internet, then with the national internet or the national internet, it's really hard to use those vpn services and saves a messenger apps such a signal. the u. s. government has eased export restrictions on software and some technology to iran to widen online access. but analysts say it's unlikely to have an immediate impact ah,

several demonstrations in support of the government of also taking place in iran. president abraham were he see says immediate death must be investigated, but it's called the protests acts of chaos. hon subdivision, they want to ride a wave and create riots and disturbances. they think with such moves, they can stop the nation. we've announced many times that of any one has a fair comment and we will listen to it. but anarchy disturbing national security is the security of people. no one i succumb to this i so far though, the protests show no sign of dying down. wow. victoria gate and be al jazeera rush is pushed to annex for regions in ukraine, has moved into a new phase authorities now going door to door in what they say a referendums. i'm soldiers are reportedly forcing people to vote. the ballot is

meant to decide whether the occupied areas should join russia devoted to taking place in their hands don't yet separation and her phone. they cover about 15 percent of ukraine's territory. ukraine's western allies have condemned the balance as a sham. that appears to be a step towards russian annexation internally displaced. people from the port city of mary poll have been protesting in cave, against russia's. referendums, area poll is in the den, yes, region where one of the votes is taking place, protest is waived, ukrainian flags. and how post is rating? mary. a poll is ukraine depression, but even after leaves monthly, stormy bridge and cry. and we still cannot believe that all this happened and is still happening in the city. that is why we are here now. we want to support our city and prove to the whole world that money poll is ukraine. we are ukrainians, and we want to live on our ukrainian land in o hometown in

a moment will say to al jazeera mohammed valley and moscow. but 1st let's go to gabriel. alexander, who joins us live from cave. hello, they gave what milky tell us about these reports. arm soldiers are going door to door in these occupied parts of the country. yeah, that's what we've seen on telegram channels and different social media sites that have been sort of posting videos and what have you from these different regions where this voting is apparently taking place. and there are some regions where videos we're seeing of a clearly showing what appear to be russian appointed election officials. walking through the hallways of apartment buildings knocking on doors, accompanied by would appear to be russian soldiers asking people to vote. clearly assigned, critic say would be voter intimidation. we're also seeing and hearing reports of

ukrainians that do not want to vote to join the russian federation. busy fearful closing their windows and doors shuddering their blinds as, as election. officials walk through neighborhoods as well. so we are, you know, this, it's very difficult to get a very clear sense of what is happening and some of the areas were voting is apparently taking place because there are no international independent election monitors. media is very restricted in these areas. and also it's in a war zone. so you can, it's very hard to cross between front lines of a war to get to areas where voting is taking place at all that up. and that's where we're sometimes having to rely on 2nd hand information to glean what is exactly happening. of course, russia media has put out of videos as well, showing what appeared to be very orderly voting as well in some polling stations.

so we are seeing some of that as well. but the bottom line is, is that a lot of ukrainian officials say that most of the ukrainians that were living in these areas that are now controlled by the russian military. that do not want to join the russian federation fled those areas already because of the threats of violence. now this is what the russians are saying will be a 4 day votes. we're expecting that it will end probably on monday. and that the russian election commission in moscow we are presumably, will then be releasing results results that already the united states, the g 7 countries and the united nations not to mention ukraine have said they will not recognize. because they view this referendum as a sham guy. thanks for bringing this up to spade gabriel alexander live for us in cave. that's across to moscow now, where mohammed valid standing by mohammed therapy changes to russia's military department. tell us a little bit more about that. so the flights emily

the weakest link in the russian operation. in ukraine, and that has been obvious from the one when hundreds of tanks and ammunition were soldiers with 10 t into your crane without a proper arrangements to continue to send supplies to those to those troops. and also now washer is on the verge of sending ad, it has already started sending $300000.00 new recruits to, to support its operation and ukraine. that's a huge operation because it is taking place in various parts of russia, needs, transportation, training centers and, and, and other logistic. and apparently she's trying to strengthen this part of this, of its operation in ukraine in day. thank you very much and how much val live for

us in moscow? and following on from what mohammed said, moscow is mobilizing military reservists says president, letting me purge and looks to balls to his forces in ukraine. on wednesday, the kremlin announced 300000 reserve. it would be sent to fight in ukraine. that's pushing some russians to try to flee abroad. but crossing into finland in the east may be easier said than done. whole race has more from the border crossing in finland. there are no longer many ways to leave russia, but this is one of the, the border with finland that volleyball a 3 hour drive from st. petersburg, where the numbers departing seemed to be increasing. the wake of president vladimir putin, the partial mobilization of the russian people, proudly to flee again. while it has be more traffic costing from russia to finland since wednesday evening. no particular restrictions, we are an external border to the shaken zone. we perform thorough checks, most people are traveling into finland on tours,

around people here on the borders, so it's very, very calm. not like some people think it is later calm turned into almost total quiet as evening draws in head. there's just a few calls left from the long queues of the morning. most of the russians have tried to get across the border seem to have been successful. those could be the lucky ones. report to the finished media. se ministers are working on a plan to get around the principles of the shing, an agreement, and freedom of movement. by claiming that finland's, acceptance of russian tourists is damaging it international relationships. all race out is era volleyball on the finland. russia border delayed on al jazeera, italy could be on course to elect if most right when government world war 2. we take a look at the race a day before voted, hate to polls. and south africa goes solar,

international relations malone. you stated that she's probably ras, pro nieto, and she was records found chief against russia. that's as far as you is concerned, maloney used to be why you'd have skeptics in the last month territory for you to change. but feel that she would not be one of the most support that you that she believed that you wrote. and you can, you should be just as just, you know, in organization of member come just with the national golf and that will break together when it's possible. so she doesn't leave, you know, in the to struggle demonstrators in mexico have attacked a military base to protest about the disappearance of 43 students nearly 8 years ago. ah, the protest is blamed the army for the death they trying to storm a military can for the capital. mexico city police retaliated by firing teegan
