5:02 pm
hello ukraine says with forces have entered the moscow control supply hub of lima in the don't yet region. it comes a day after president vladimir putin declared for regions including john. yes, part of the russia federation. the city is important for moscow as it serves as a logistics and transport, connecting ukraine's east to its north. and i've been having it has more firms, upper retail, one of the most visible impacts today is that usually this road here, or would be, you would see convoys of ukrainians leaving a russian occupied areas, mainly upper regia and near by for so well today. none of that happened. we were told that basically since midnight of the dead at the last russian checkpoint, anyone who arrives is basically turned back,
5:03 pm
told that he has to or she has to apply for a new permit. just bear in mind that yesterday there was about a 1500 people who had made their way out and into leading to have read bill and doing them random. that was more or less a daily average of people coming out between $1500.00 to 2000. well today, none of that. and then we are also hearing now a report of shelly in their good died. that would be just next to the nuclear plot. where the director general at the moment is missing the i. e, a d international atomic agency and issued a statement confirming that russia told him, told them that he was detained for questioning. are you ukranian say that he was stopped by a russian patrol on his way? actually to do town of a no good are. let's get an update from re challenge is joining us from the capital
5:04 pm
. keep. so what's the latest on lehman in the east of the country? and why is that important, tory while the life is really man, is that's what we hear from the crating military, is that they are, they are inside the town fights are ongoing, but ukrainian forces are inside the town of leman. essentially though, it seems that that has fall in that town of leave and has fallen now to to the credit. despite these fights, ongoing russian military bloggers on the telegram channels and switzer accounts are saying they pulled out re a nova city. the russian news agency is saying that the russians have retreated from the math as well. so i think we can reasonably safely assume that man, despite those fights on going, he's pretty much in the hands of the cranium. now, why is it important? well, this was a fairly major russian military garrison. it's also an important railway junction.
5:05 pm
the russians rely on railways to supply their troops throughout eastern ukraine throughout occupied territory. so it's a blow for the continuing ability of russia to, to keep its forces fighting in that area. it's also, if you look at the kind of the psychological blow, a pretty effective hit from the craniums, just a day off to resume putin annexed for territories of all of the crate and said that they are now forever russia ukraine by taking the man and showing well, no, they're not. another thing that is important about this, let's have a look back at what happened earlier in the month. there was a lightening cancer offensive from the craniums going through the region of ca, have taken back significant amounts of territory. that was a big surprise for the russians, and that surprise contributed to their defeats in those areas. lima wasn't
5:06 pm
a surprise. this is something that the ukrainians be working on for a while. the russians knew they were. they had ample opportunity to reinforce and prepare the defensive defences and still they lost it. and rory, meanwhile, were hearing reports of another attack on a civilian convoy this time in the harkey region. what have you heard? yeah, so. 2 i mean basically this, this, there's this attack looks very, very similar to what we saw or early yesterday. it just before randomly peter made that announcement about sir the, the annexations. there was a, a horrible attack on a convoy vehicles in this apparition, year region in which we now think 30 people died $88.00 injured. now. we're seeing very similar types of pictures coming from the carcass region. just east of the
5:07 pm
city town of, of, of coupons. now what we're being told by the ukrainian intelligence or s b u is that's or another convoy this time, 6 vehicles, 6 cars, one truck or were, were hit by a russian recognizance unit, probably on the 25th of september. but they only discovered this scene or yesterday on the, on the 30th of september. why is it taken them this long to find it? well, this is an error that is basically the gray zone are between ukrainian control territory and russian control territory. and it is just taken them that long to discover what has happened. i have to say though, we should caveat this. the, this scene has not been independently verified yet by journalists. so at the moment we only have the ukrainian authority say so that this has happened,
5:08 pm
but it looks like something very similar to what we saw just a just yesterday, coming out as a project has happened once again in hockey region. thank you so much for a challenge. reporting can to now lebanon, has received a written offer from the u. s. mediator almost horse, thin on clarifying the demarcation of fits maritime border with israel. this offer of an agreement is not formal, but it does clarify supposedly what previously had been a verbal proposal is really side will also receive a copy if both parties agree to its terms. they will then hold an indirect meeting at a un base in the south of level on to finalize details through u. s. mediation then reports from beta. it's a long standing maritime border dispute between living on and israel may be close to being resolved a written proposal. is now on the table. it's based on years of intermittent and indirect negotiations mediated by the united states. ideal would be
5:09 pm
a rare diplomatic breakthrough between enemies that would unlock valuable underwater resources. but it would also position the eastern mediterranean as an energy hub, supplying europe as it seeks replacements for russian gas. there is a need that has been created due to the russian ukrainian war. europe is looking at the east mediterranean as one possible source. israel is already an exporter of energy and wants to significantly add to its output by starting to produce gas at its career field. but there are security concerns with the iranian backed armed group. hezbollah has said it has the capability to obstruct the sale of gas to europe. if lebanon's rights in the maritime region aren't recognized. israel dismissed the threats and warned of a war if there is any attack. but despite the tough talk, all parties have shown readiness to reach a deal lebanese officials and has the law have called it
5:10 pm
a historic opportunity for the country. grappling with a major financial crisis. lebanon hasn't been able to begin drilling because international companies won't explore the area until the border dispute is resolved . the proposed compromise is believed to involve including cutting field and israel's economic zone. while most of the nearby carno will go to lebanon, even though there are no proven reserves in that field, and i've been on said that it's getting everything it's wanted. so the negotiations, i don't line 23. and that car now basically was a 4th of by 11 on without going into the details of that kind of it. i prospect is not very clear. what is getting in in this deed is this, is that, are they getting a security and security guarantees? are they getting any guarantees that they're not not going to be any effects from the, from the has vala. israel is expected to receive a copy of the written offer in the coming days. the agreement wont become formal
5:11 pm
until the parties finalize it. during indirect meetings, at a un base near their border, a breakthrough doesn't signal piece or a normalization of relations, but it could reduce tensions and allow gas to flow from under the see that there are theater balte. so a potential is 11 on deal is seen as having implications for europe as the you seeks to reduce its energy dependent on russia. while in bulgaria, a gas pipeline with grease is now opened. it comes as bulgaria and told snap elections on sunday and energy on the ukraine war are a major issues and for some, and has more from sophia it's the full of elections, of the national assembly in 2 years. this is a deep political crisis. russia's invasion of ukraine has polarized deep divisions between the parties here on the eve of the elections. one of this country's attempts to go, energy independent from russia was own, show the opening of
5:12 pm
a pipeline between grease and bo guerria, which will carry gas from azerbaijan, kill peck cough. a pro western party leader had been prime minister when russia demanded roubles the it's guess supply. pet cough refused. the demands in april and gas supplies were cut. 3 months later, his coalition government fell off road no confidence vote. on his part, his co founder says the country is now at a major crisis point where the crossroads and we can either become a normal european, somewhat boring country that says normal social paula says good healthcare with education or we can go back to this endless transition from communism that we're stuck into like a bad movie. oak area is a member of the e. u and nato. yet corruption is endemic here. and many politicians hide the fact that the russians sympathizes. there is no doubt that the kremlin is having an
5:13 pm
influence on what's happening here. and if the outcome of this election is inconclusive, it would suit russia. so let's look at how europe is actually reducing its reliance on russian gas. bulgaria is getting more gas from as are based on via a new 182 kilometer long gas pipeline. it runs between come a teeny in greece and star as a gora and central bulgaria. gas started flowing to poland through the new bolting pipe from norway on saturday morning. it runs via denmark and the baltic sea in southern europe. spain gets a big chunk of fits gas from algeria via the med gas pipeline. and talks are under way to build a new pipeline from nigeria to algeria. the 4000 kilometer long transfer herron gas pipeline could send up to 30000000000 cubic meters of gas a year to europe. here's what's coming up on our 0 after the break. we talk to palm
5:14 pm
oil producers in nigeria who say they are struggling to stay in business. we also take a closer look at why the u. k. prime minister time for growth is facing mounting scrutiny. ah, there's a very wet time the year for se, asia, virtually anywhere. i mean, it doesn't look like a lot of cloud on the satellite picture, but merged into the forecast. and yes, you see bits of bornea, bits of solar ways. he admits the philippines, but it's an awful lot of blue and orange or anti which is just pretty heavy showers or thunderstorms all over the place, which is correct. the heavy says light be still in me and mark probably sudden turn on. and once again in western side of bornea that jumping north, the seasonal rain here is not really following his track at all. we've got a line of rain that's going as cross yellow sea, north of what is
5:15 pm
a very hot part of asia as central and southern china. and the final to johnson recently has been hot all summer and still is new october records being set because of these temperatures. now they will come down to a degree in the next day or so, because this rain is coming slowly south, but not everywhere as good, cool down. shanghai will, one will, grilling will not improve job. this rain though, is probably welcome and is not attempts to stand by good 10 degrees in the korean peninsula, leaving japan dry and still hot. that much of india is now along with pakistan mostly dry. but you'll notice there's an increase the circulation of rainfall likely in bangladesh. i'm sure that's not welcome. ah ah, ah ah
5:16 pm

5:25 pm
produces a nigeria say they're struggling to stay in business because of higher costs of production, climate change and illegal smugglers. demand rose slightly earlier this year after indonesia bounds palm oil exports. but farmers say a chronic lack of investment is holding back their industry. ash my that is reports from o como palm oil production in the world. 5th biggest producer is growing, but only just last year. output in nigeria rose by 200000 tons, but there wasn't nearly enough to be local demand. the country have to import more than the 1400000 tons it produced and produces a bad timing, their efforts to go more locally. they are also promotional tend to be cheaper our nurse on time. like i said, because of godaddy, ma'am they look more efficient. was your causal co dash only?
5:26 pm
dom dot me sir. oh doubt, you put a hub high causal where promotional gary say a praise your own game. based on the our profit margin on there, you read. he wants to see better market protection for local producers who are struggling to find enough pump fruits for their factories. at the peak of the hobby season, this one also says 1000 metrics on for one day, but up small don't only 400 shortages of all materials. but a lack of fruit is in the farmer's only concern that you know 20192020. we had a huge input of smuggled olean, which is the refined product of our sepia. and that created a lot of problems for, for companies like ourselves because obviously it flooded the market and we couldn't sell our product in the 19 fifties and sixties. now generous output of palm oil picked at 40 percent of global supply. but that's trying to out 2 percent
5:27 pm
producer say removing several barriers can give niger as palm or the industry the chance to go and expand export we are more heavily taxed in general than other countries. so there's no incentive really to come but uses a nigeria has the capacity to produce as much as the world's leading producer indonesia. but they need help to get their degrees al jazeera while as financial markets, real after the u. k. government budget announcement, the high risk strategy behind the prime ministers plan for growth is being questioned. the government now has to face a conservative party conference where list trust and leadership credentials are under mounting scrutiny. the park are reports from london, a few streets from parliament, multiple right wing think tanks occupied grand premises, some with direct links to the breakfast campaign of his with ties to the right of
5:28 pm
the u. s. republican party. the people who for years have been lobbying for an ultra free market prime minister. now they found one in the form of less trust. and while they applauded the government's new direction, even these ideologues are concerned. i think some extent they haven't played in they haven't flic communicated what the plan is or and not always what the central set haven't gotten across in the ways of intended to get across. i really, i think they struggled and they've also come in at quite a difficult time in so many ways with the warrant crane the impacts of corvette you've got, they all these strange on the economy. you've got massive levels and reflections. and then the common with quite a radical plan, and i think that spooks people around the corner another think tank, founded by form, a conservative prime minister, margaret thatcher, someone less trust is often accused of modeling herself on. similar worries abound here. and they haven't come into the market more to that fiscal plans than just tax
5:29 pm
policy. they haven't really down enough on the supply side. they go says that it's that communication in terms of they just on the plans, tax cuts. now, consistently mecan pay, but perhaps markets will react in the same way. let's not forget, of course these people got less trust selective, but even they seem a little bit nervous. but put aside whether or not trust no makes will lead to that all important elusive goal of growth. think more about how quasi caught things budget statement last friday was received by the markets. and of course, we all know the pound lost a huge amount of value, interest rates went up, lenders ended up sacrificing dozens of mortgage deals, and the bank of england made that surprise intervention worth 70000000000 dollars to prevent financial catastrophe. it's hard to imagine all of this was part of the plan and it's precisely these things millions of traditional conservative party voters care about,
5:30 pm
which is why the latest opinion polls are chilling news for the government, the opposition labor party, boasting a staggering 33 point lead over the ruling conservatives of things continue as they are, is difficult to say how trust could be the person that fights the next election because it would be, you know, i see a side note from the conservative party. the question is he would replace that. i wouldn't be surprised if bars johnson comes back. who's that? yes, you heard it all. this uncertainty means the return. of course, johnson isn't as far fetched as it seems. the government, meanwhile, is backpedaling officials from britain's independent fiscal watchdog. the office for budget responsibility arriving at downing street on friday to deliver their verdict on the plan. something governments normally do ahead of a fiscal announcement. the chancellor of the exchequer, quasi quoting on the other hand, refused in a dash for growth and a rush to sample. his trust is leadership in history. a leadership that's faltering . the 1st hurdle.
