russia has withdrawn its troops from the strategically important city of lyman in the de ned screeching. it served as a logistics and transport hub for moscow connecting eastern ukraine to the north. the russian defense, ministering says it took the move to avoid its troops. being encircled by ukrainian forces comes a day after russian president vladimir putin declared for eastern regions including done yet part of russia. charles stratford has more from commer tossed ukrainian soldiers waved their flag at the entrance to leman, run the barometer modem and i for them. footage that al jazeera cannot independently verify, shows dead soldiers and burnt out tanks beside the road. the ukrainian military said it surrounded the strategically important town in the partially russian occupied region of the next hours later, the russian military said it had been forced to retreat. there is

a long time ago that regina, there was a high risk of being encircled. so our forces were withdrawn from the position and lemon to more advantageous lines. for russia, media at video believe to show a russian tank retreating north towards camina, a town russian forces still control mirrors door, garage them alum. we try to save our strength and control the road between layman and the town camino that there are reinforcements trying to get in and established positions in order to stop the ukrainian. so could i ask you who i ian ukrainian forces, celebrated pushing russian forces out of one of a number of villages in the surrounding area. ukrainian soldiers and volunteers evacuated more civilians from the frontline town of buck mood that has come under increasing russian shelling in recent weeks. the bottom of her study snobs, fidel, because of the secondary shelling you see what happened or yesterday or the day before yesterday. a projectile fell. there was an older man in the house. they took him away. i was in the kitchen when the explosion happened. here. it is impossible

is that the forces not withdraw from lee man. they were called allied forces, so that means that in the language of the minister of defense, these are not russian troops per se. they are those ukrainian forces that are loyal to moscow. and now they are considered, of course, after the annexation of those $33.00 is considered part of the russian federation, but they called them allied forces. so, i mean, that's a very careful wording because also the news here that we received before this statement by the minister of defense, he thought that the bulk of russian forces actually left to the men. and before this attempt by the ukrainian forces to circle the town, nobody here inside russia understand very well the strategy. lots of questions being asked about why are we receiving these set box? what is the exact strategy of russian army?

are these just defeats as can can be described as just defeats or is this a strategy for something that is coming? we know that russia has a lot of very strategic weapons that can, it can still use in this fight. so the philosophy here is that russia has something about it is not doing yet a thought front lion. it is withholding a part of this of its force, not just nuclear weapons, but it's strategic traditional, conventional weapons. and the question mark, c, r y is russia receiving these defeats when it can do better on the front line. russian authorities are detained, the director of ukraine separation nuclear power plant. the nuclear watchdog says rushes confirm that hot water shop has been held for questioning your green state. nuclear regulators says he was blindfolded and detained just hours after moscow

them random. that was more or less a daily average of people coming gather between 1500 to 2000 well to day. none of that. and then we are also hearing now of reports of shelly in their good di that would be just next to the nuclear plant where the air 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 the town of a know good are a set of emergency has been declared and burkina faso my day after the come to 2nd military coup in 8 months. they are said president,

meta frederickson says the security of critical infrastructure is under threat as the cloud and not r r a separate change. it is clear that when there is the sabotage of critical infrastructure such as gas lines, then it shows the attention of every while. i have also spoken with french president emanuel micron to day. and we agreed that this is a serious situation. this is out hand into reality, and therefore the critical infrastructures have now turned into a general concern on both sides of protested across the u. k. demanding action to tackle the countries cost of living crisis rallies have taken place in london, leaves glasgow. manchester booming and belfast, the demonstrations came in the day, the major energy price rises came into effect from millions of people. the enough is enough campaign is calling on the government to do more to improve pay slash energy bills and improve housing. affordability was the financial markets real in

the wake of the u. k. government's budget announcement. iris strategy behind the prime ministers plan for growth is being questioned. the government now has to face a conservative party conference, where list trust is leadership credentials. and under mounting scrutiny, lead barker reports from london, a few streets from parliament, multiple right wing think tanks occupied grand premises, some with direct links to the breakfast campaign. others with ties to the right of 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 applaud the government's new direction, even these ideologues are concerned, i think some extent they haven't played in their hand for communicating what the plan is or, and not always what the central said hasn't gotten across in the way of intended to get across. but really, i think they struggled, and i've also come in at quite a difficult time in so many ways. but the warranty crane, the corvette, you can't,

they all these strange on the economy. you've got massive levels in inflation. 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 that more to that fiscal plans than just tax policy. they haven't really down enough on the supply side. they don't communication in terms of they just on the plans tops cuts that i had spoken about consistently. mccann, hey mark, it's been around the same way. let's not forget, of course the lease 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 core 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 $70000000000.00 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 which is why the latest opinion polls a chilling news for the government, the opposition labor party, boasting a staggering $33.00 point lead over the ruling conservatives of things conforming as they are. it 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 replacer. i wouldn't be surprised if marsh johnson comes back. who's that? yes, be 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 government normally do ahead of a fiscal announcement. the chancellor of the exchequer quasi crossing on the other hand, refused in a dash for growth, and a rush to sample his trust. as leadership in history, a leadership that's faltering the 1st hurdle. the falcon al jazeera london that the ends of cast their votes and parliamentary elections was exit polls predicting a win for prime minister chris janice collins, center right, new unity party. the actions been strongly influenced by russia's invasion of ukraine. the popularity of the moscow family opposition harmony party has been in decline, and it's expected that it will get a much lower share of the vote than the 20 percent it had in 2018. that fear has been a key voice in pushing the european union's is stand against russian expansionism

want denounce himself. financial incentives for voting are more common in municipal elections, but not exclusively incumbent candidates all the way up to the presidency have the advantage. perhaps the most obvious example is president jade bose fernando's decision to distribute a $120.00 to brazilian families most in need for the next 4 months. even though the constitution specifically bars governments from distributing money on the eve of elections. president bull sonata declared a state of emergency to get around the prohibition. many and other handouts are always welcome by the poor, even during elections. but many ask at what price for brazil's democracy. you see in human al jazeera pin number go more than one point. $6000000.00 homes and businesses have been left without power of to how to come in, slammed into the carolinas. mr. milan fall in the us for a 2nd time on friday with strong winds, causing
