1:03 pm
lost their lives because of officers who did not humanize us with very disappointed with the treatment because many lives were lost. faith is rules, banned the use of tear gas by stewards or police sit football matches. is jarvis police chief defended the crowd control measures used by his offices are intelligible, i am not them. it was a feeling of disappointment that prompted supporters to go down to the field to ask the place why they lost the game. that's when the security team moved in. so fans went get on to the field or interact with the players. during that process t, a guess was fired because there was anarchy. please estimate 3000 fans stormed the pitch in, did easy president joker, which odo has ordered an investigation into the incident was loose by the guy body . i have specially requested the police chief investigates and get to the bottom of
1:04 pm
this case. furthermore, i have also ordered the indonesian football association to temporarily holt legal one matches until evaluations and improvements and safety procedures. i've been completed by can proceed. ah, 42000 people attended the sell out match all a ream, f. c. supporters, sir, by fans weren't allowed to buy tickets because of the risk of violence. i think at this moment fif, i should step up not by bending innovation with bull, but working together, guiding all football association with the right security measures. east of as provincial government says it will give $650.00 in compensation to the families of the victims and promises lessons will be learned. so a tragedy like this doesn't happen again, victoria gay to be al jazeera. let's get an update now with jessica, she's joining us from panda, and that's near milan where the stampede actually to pace. jessica,
1:05 pm
so tell us what you're hearing about the latest in the investigation. while in terms of the situation, it is still a developing story. the numbers in terms of the number of victims, those are still being confirmed earlier, we heard reports of potentially up to a 170 people killed in the stampede. that those numbers have been revised back down to a 130 dozens of people remain in hospital at around 8 hospital spread. throughout my lung, the local government has pledged to pay for their medical bills. but this is really a, a tragic day for indonesian sport and indeed for football around the world as, as you mentioned, be heard earlier from president joker were dodo, but as people have time to react this tragedy for also hearing from human rights groups such as amnesty international noting really specifically talking about the police behavior, the disproportionate force and perhaps unsuitable actions. questioning why they
1:06 pm
would attempt to use chia gas in a confined space. noting not only the fee for regulations which prevent at which prohibits using cheap gas in combined stadiums for safety reasons. and of course, calling into question how the use of that he guess contributed to this tragedy that we are discussing today. there are horse coals for an, an inadequate investigation into what has exactly happened. and of course, while there has been much focus on the longstanding issues, if found hooliganism, found violence, and intense rivalries of between supporters of various teams. this is very much about more than those issues. it becomes a question of human rights of police force and whether or not, and who, and indeed will be held accountable for these debts. re jessica put this into context for us and talk to us about the, the history of football violence in the country and whether these such instances like these are a rare well,
1:07 pm
indonesia has a rather check it history. when it comes to fulls, it is a full loving nation of coursera many positive stories regarding football in this country. but at the same time, the league has dealt with many challenges on chief among those of fan hooliganism rivalry between supporters of different clubs and how that can sort of spill into chaos, violence and even riots in some situations. that is a longstanding problem in indonesia. it's nothing new. those are val the sort of a common occurrence violence between fans. but we've not seen anything on this scale in terms of the scale of this tragedy. and it's not just a question of how the fans were behaving. yes, they did storm on to the pitch. yes, they were fans engaging in violent behavior, but it was the situation. and what people are questioning is what police should have done to help calm down the situation rather than using something like tear gas and actually exacerbating it. indonesia is football histories,
1:08 pm
indeed. check it. but we have seen the country trying to make progress, trying to reform that image in some sorts, and a part of that has been, you know, renovating stadiums, building new stadiums. but there are fundamental questions about the culture of the sport in this country. and indeed, what steps need to continually be taken in order to to change that it is worth noting that indonesia is hoping to secure and hoping to host further international tournaments next year into these years already confirmed is the host of the under 20 fif a tournament. it's 1st ever before event, and it is also putting in a bid to host to be a co host of the asian puts an incident like this will call into question the capability of indonesia to host such prestigious events. not only because of that behavior, but more importantly, because of the conduct of authorities in attempting to control the crowd, and perhaps his seeming inability to do that safely. thank you so much. jessica washington is reporting for us from milan where that stampede happened. thank you
1:09 pm
so much. morrison forces have pulled out of the strategically important eastern ukrainian city of lee man. it's part of the russian claims region of daniel lee man served as a logistics and transport hard for russian forces. charles stratford is in crime. a tourist close to the front lines ukrainian soldiers waved their flag at the entrance to leman brownlee bravo all him 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 and partially russian occupied region of the next hours later, the russian military said it had been forced to retreat. it is all done and we'll go with that rosanna. there was a high risk of being encircled. so our forces will withdrawn from the position and
1:10 pm
lemon to more advantageous lines. for russia, media at video believed to show a russian tank retreating north towards camina. a town russian forces still control me as though i could ask them l. m. we tried to save our strength and control the road between layman and the town carmina. there were reinforcements trying to get in and established positions in order to stop the ukrainian. so could i ask you who i am? ukrainian forces, celebrating pushing russian forces out at one of a number of villages in the surrounding area. ukrainian soldiers and volunteers evacuated more civilians from the front line 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 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 to be here. crane and authorities say
1:11 pm
more than half the 70000 people who lived in bar mood from the surrounding area before the war of already fled. the russians say this retreat was strategic before cave and it's nato partners. it will be seen as a humiliating defeat. cha, stratford al jazeera cremmit holst. worn out the reactions from russia to the ukrainian takeover of li man. let's bring in mohammed val joining us from moscow. so how are the russians explaining this takeover? yes, does he know there is a lot of questioning and criticism going on here since that withdrawal from the man? and now we have these strong statements from no one less than the chechen a leader arms. i'm cut off who is a very close ally to president putin and who said basically that the army
1:12 pm
leadership has covered for incompetent, general and incompetent general in particular, who should now be sent to the front to wash his shame off with his blood very strong words from cut your off was very close to present, put in and cut it off. i said also in his statement that he had in the past, it warned against what he described as the incompetence of the field commander alexander lufkin, who is in charge of that operation. but to no one listened to him. and this is very significant because guardian, as i said, that for the 3rd time, he's very close to a prison put in. and he, russia, no one like him can say these statements if put in, doesn't agree with that. so this is like a like, like a, an in director warning and statement or criticism from president putting himself a fire that drove also another interesting personality in russia. eve guinea,
1:13 pm
a pre goshen, if any progression is a yeah, an important early got quiz, very close to vladimir, putting your ssl level, the same type of criticism to the leadership, probably to the higher leadership in the army. probably the, the head of the whole army saying that those people should be sent barefoot to the front with kalashnikov to confront reality there. and in a way, by way of punishment for them for, for what they have done for the mistake they have committed. and these are, these criticisms, as i mentioned, are a reflection of what is also being said in streets. yeah. and by individual russians that a pol phoenician, like a rush her with all the weapons it has, and the superior army, and the technology shouldn't be receiving those that are those defeats in the front against a lesser alexis, alice, a less strong army like that of ukraine. thank you so much. mm hm. and now for that update from moscow. so ever since president vladimir putin announced
1:14 pm
a mandatory draft of military aged men, there has been an x of this to russia's borders. many thousands have fled the country, and the growing number of russians is worrying some people in countries like georgia and one con reports from the capital tbilisi. this man spreads hate against russians across the city of tbilisi, but as fast as he can, graffiti, the city paints over it with equal speed. he wants all the russians out of georgia and russia out of ukraine. the war between russia and georgia fulton years ago. still says strong feelings and similarities between that and the war and ukraine. a common we wrote here are putting, hullo, are here of it to russia is in our copier, inter estate and on this wall. ah, the so message to the citizens of russia, it are russians. you are not home. here. he is part of a collective of activists who are becoming increasingly vocal and angry,
1:15 pm
over the influx of tens of thousands of russians who arrived since president vladimir putin announced a partial mobilization of men to fight in ukraine. nick represents the more extreme, almost xenophobic end of antique russian sentiment. however, you don't have to travel very far to find people who are equally concerned. they're worried about rising rents. the neighborhoods are also worried about those same neighborhoods being swamped. but dying is a digital artist who revisions traditional jordan, historical figures into futuristic digital art. he's also concerned that local people could be squeezed out, nor may return here on my luck with our machine. i think that in every country we should have tourism. but now there are more russian tourist than normal. they are provoking this and that's fine. when they do, it becomes an issue. 50 percent of russians. same. okay. most of them i don't like the russians in tbilisi are also feeling the change in attitude. yes degrees. even
1:16 pm
than us throwing out some of the young people have an aggressive attitude. they say, why are you coming here? i think people under 25 mainly, but pension is also say we are making prices go up. and i say putin will make us join russia. now, one of the 1st things many people do when reaching a new place is get a local phone number. and outside the phones shop, these russians are sharing the knowledge of where to live and the basics of moving to a new place. but with official statistics of round 9000 people arriving every day, the tide of sentiment against them seems to be rising as quickly as the numbers crossing the border. enron come out 0 to lisa. britain's prime minister has admitted she should have better prepared for public and financial markets for her new economic plan. less trust was speaking to the b, b. c. the announcement of her tax plan caused the pound to plummet as to record lows against the dollar. i do want to say to people by, on the sound that worries about what has happened this week. and i do,
1:17 pm
i do stand by the package we announced. and i stand by the, by the fact that we announced it quickly because we had to, by do, accept, we should have laid the ground better. do accept your accept. and i have learned from that i have learned from lots and i will make sure that in future we do a better job of lagging the grounds. sent him are head on the algebra news our including we follow the plight of traders in guinea whose businesses are suffering a year on from the military to winters. country is a way to be fighting and welcoming australia and football chief criticize the behavior of soccer found during an aboriginal pair. money that's always coming up with gemma important. ah, but 1st voters in bosnia herzegovina are casting their ballots. the pole is widely
1:18 pm
seen as the most important since the end of the bosnian war in 1995. nearly 3400000 people are eligible to choose, excuse the members of the collective presidency. the country's governing system is one of the most complicated in the world. to break it down for us, we'll bring in a big, he's joining us from, sorry, so house, turn out, been a said, what have you been seeing? everyone will hold open at 7 o'clock. this morning they will close at 7 o'clock this evening. we understand the polls. the politicians open across the country. people have a have about 5 and 18 positions are open and over 7 and a half 1000 candidate symposium stations are busy or not so, but vote to turn out has been low in recent years is around 50 percent compared to write a sent in the 1st post for the election, but as you said, this is a complicated political system and it seems like a bit of a cliche for agenda to stand and say it's complicated,
1:19 pm
but it really is. you have one country, you have 2 separate entities, and 3 comes to show people that next cross and serves. and to further complicate it both next and cross the live in republic. step scott can't vote for a bus, a bus next or correct, because they're not like the only is it just stand in that presidential election. and here in the federation of bosnia cannot vote for us because on the bus, across to here have you been speaking to young people and they say they think that the system doesn't work. they also feel that there hasn't been any progress because of these divisions along ethnic and religious lines. and that has really affected turn out to just to give you an example above applied for european membership 6 years ago. and they yet to even have candidate status. so we are expecting the post to close at 7 o'clock tonight, but turn out looks like it would be around 50 percent. so what's at stake for the people who are actually coming out to vote in the selection and why is it seen as
1:20 pm
so crucial? it's been a so crucial because of the tensions over the last 10 months. you have a national lead that made a miller a daughter who is close to that to me, up to 2 west supported the ukraine war. he's also made comments that he wants the republic that's got to be separate. people are concerned about the militarization of the police republic says he's threatening to withdraw from institutions. and the fear is that if a correct nation, this president is also elected, which is the real threat, then that give the presidency 2 thirds of have all the crucial state institutions. so that's what's that state, can those divisions around those ethnic lines still exist? 27 years later, why are we still talking about the war is because that will continue to cast a shadow over the 5 to hear over the political system. and many people i have
1:21 pm
spoken to at least a stereo, both seem fed up with the system. but right now, no one has offered an alternative, a viable alternative to what they have now. thank you so much. i said paper 40 for us. i'm sorry. oh, well, there's voting also underway in bulgaria, in its 4th parliamentary election in 18 month opinion polls. so the vote is unlikely to break a long standing political deadlock. the 3 time prime minister, a boy called boris solves conservative party look set to win. the most votes, but not enough to form a governing coalition, covering that story for us is andrew sim, is joining us from sophia. so, andrew, what's the public mood like? well, frustration and anxiety, it could call it desperation because politics is fragmented in this country. the corruption is rife at every level in public life, and there is also the bad economy, the bad picture economically,
1:22 pm
which is affecting people right across the board. how did this all stop? steve? just giving carol pet golf took on russia within a few months. he paid the price his coalition government brought down a vote of confidence. and pet cough says russian influence here goes hand in hand with corruption. i can make, i can tell you, russia would have 0 in one country. you boat garrett ball, it shows up there up. that is the way. if one, if country it broke garage and what i'm trying to say to all the, the national years and of all garen boulders and he's been our fight against corruption, is the same fight. i gave for anyone when he was prime minister pet cough refused to pay for russian gas in rubles, the supply line carrying 85 percent of the country's energy needs was cut off. peck
1:23 pm
offset about finding alternative gas supplies. and opening up a pipeline between greece and bulgaria was a start. but it couldn't stop attacks from the likes of boy co boris of a former prime minister who has an 11 year leadership record. he lost pow after anti corruption protests, but opinion polls claim he's the election favourite. oh, with this vote, the people will tell us who should retire, who should leave? or if we should be united, all they'll say you can't do it without each other. in boris off is accused by pet scoffers squandering $3000000000.00 of taxpayers money. it was on a gas pipe project. he says that connected serbia and hungary with russia, but gave no access to bulgaria bypassed ukraine. people just don't know who to trust in this election. many politicians are hiding their russian sympathies. and
1:24 pm
on top of all of this, the kremlin is mounting. it's biggest disinformation campaign here. ever. people aren't just confused, lead disillusioned. and you have been a deal though, voters actually make an informed choice between the 2. camps has been significantly hindered by the huge degree of this information. those politicians infections of society who are critical of moscow are as traitors. faith in bulgarian democracy is as fragmented as its political system. there is a strong likelihood that this election will be inconclusive. and that would suit the kremlin and certainly the turn out is pretty low without seeing many people going into this appalling station. there is not an apathy, just as i was saying earlier, a desperation and sort of giving up people just more or less thinking what is the
1:25 pm
point? because there seems to be a move towards more more russian influence here. that's concerning a lot of people, there is fear in some parts of the country about what might happen because of this sympathy towards russia and the possibility of the party. now, following through on a policy which does not aligned to the european union of which this country is a member, is also a member of nato. so the anger of russia, i'm one possibility, is that gas problem, which is a massive energy for the, the gas company in russia that is provided 85 percent of the country's power needs . it was pushed to one side and untold it. they couldn't pay and roubles, and as a result, they cut off the gas. now alternatives aren't really matching up to the demand for
1:26 pm
gas. therefore, people may well see the next administration going back to russia for gas from coming to some sort of deal. then of course, that put, so a whole pile of pressure on the you with a policy, you could find that even this country could reject sanctions. there is also a some cooperation with hungary, which has, does have sympathy with russia as well. so that the whole issue for the e you could be really big. and of course, it's quite likely that that fragmentation of the, of the policies and the fragmentation of the parties that coalitions of the only way forward here. and often coalitions that don't sit well together. is even one example of one policy that has a former the, the socialist party of bulgaria, the former former communist party, alongside of a right wing party. there is instability. here, there is a lot of worry, okay, we'll cross back to the later on. thank you. so much andrew symonds reporting from sophia bulgaria. now in latvia, the prime minister at christiane is karen center,
1:27 pm
right. new unity party appears set to win parliamentary elections there. it's secure and 19 percent of votes. that's according to result, published from nearly all districts by the election body russians invasion of ukraine dominated campaigns under karens, his country has advocated a tough stance against moscow. latvia as ethnic russian minority makes up more than a quarter of its population, but none of the party is catering for them managed to secure a seats. we have a very clear course for the development of, of our economy. i would not want to deviate a very far from that course. and of course, the 1st and foremost in everyone's mind is how we all get through the winter. not only and luck feel that throughout the european union, and that we all remain united behind ukraine. and do not waiver in the face of difficulties for us, which in europe means higher prices, we always have to remember the ukrainians are paying with their lives. young man,
1:28 pm
6 month un mediated truce has expired. the loughlen fighting has been the longest in the 8 year war, yet many fear renewed violence will wipe out any gains that have been made. the un is pushing for an extension, but the warring sides, blame each other for allowing the deal to reach an impasse. millions have been displaced, and most yemenis rely on humanitarian 8. here with the news, our analysis era, here's what's coming up. after more than a 130 years, the remains of dozens of indigenous new zealanders are brought home from austria. we find out how they got there. and a victory dance from the youngest ever world rally champion details coming up a little later. ah,
1:29 pm
that autumn europe is typified by windy weather. we certainly got that the wind is coming from the atlantic spreading cloud, often rain with it, and for the next few hours, this line long he will be where the significant right is stretching from southern in going through france, luxembourg down towards austria, eventually through southern germany, and ahead of that mila, very active system, all this has been pushing the walk out of romanian bulgaria and greece, turkey as well as done that. and as that continues, all we're doing is bringing temperature down to where they should be. we've been riding high for a long time. this looks significantly colder than normal. you might think, certainly feel that way. as a contrast key keeps that rate for a couple of days and the temper than he rides by couple degrees by wednesday. it's about average 13th about right. however, the still walks hung in spain and portugal, but above average in where to place is few showers because of it, but it's nice won't. generally speaking, spreading into the central met through north africa. still,
1:30 pm
we look at how found off the rain is gone beyond san diego, guinea be south and guinea. and these, these pulses are generated sometimes polyethylene, hans and become a long way north. this one here looks particularly wet in southern chad, the central african republic and down towards the congo. ah, for a multi $1000000000.00 industry. but beyond that lit and glamour, struggling to survive, desperate to fulfill their admissions at a new lease for the journey to the highest. and those only dreams and aspirations that's just not let you meet your body with dreams coming soon on our 0. in 1996, a group of young people, new to no way describe the immigration experiences. i don't know what i do. they
1:31 pm
sent me back to say you got 25 years on al jazeera wild asks how norwegian they now feel more. you have to accept that you might never be seen as norwegian. i feel like i didn't belong. then you, who were they now? no ways, foreigners, the tone on al jazeera. oh . i. hello again. the top story on the all just to renew our 130 people have been killed in a stamp that a football match in indonesia, the cale begun after the borders and the losing side invaded the pitch,
1:32 pm
the least on fire at your guns, causing the crowd to sleep toward the ukrainian troops have retaken the strategically important eastern city of lean man in accounts were offensive. as part of the russian claimed on return. the man serve as a logistics and transport hard for russian forces and voters involved in the or heard that could be in our heading to the polls. the ballot is widely seen as the country is most important since the end of the bosnian war in 1995. the governing system is one of the most complicated in the world. so the data piece, acor's ended the bosnian war in 1995 and established a system of ethnic quote. as within many levels of government, the agreement named bosnia herzegovina as 3 main ethnic groups was the cro often serves as the countries constituents, people. it also split the nation into 2 so called entities. the federation of bosnia herzegovina, and republic. a search from the federation is predominantly bother me. i can cro
1:33 pm
out while republican service is served and both entities have their own prime ministers and parliament. their link through a week central government, a tripartite presidency is made up of one balls and one serve. and one cro who share a 4 year term rotated every 8 months on the main house of parliament uses a system of proportional representation. 28 member are directly elected by voters and the fed. a ration of the remaining 14 are elected by republic. services come, let's talk about the election with yasmine. we know that she's an independent political sciences focusing on the balkans. he's joining us from. sorry, a welcome to the al jazeera news. our. what do you put the low voter turnout to well, there's not a lot of hope in this country that political changes can occur, given how entrenched the secretary and regime is and how difficult it is actually to translate boats into change. given that go into the date of constitutional
1:34 pm
regime national, this parties are disproportionately favored by the way the government structures are set up in the country. so that would be the primary reason why not a lot of people are as many people as one would hope that generally vote in the countries elections right on a report or on the ground a little earlier on was reporting that according to some of the people that he speaks to on the streets office, are you able? they don't like they'd like to see some sort of alternate system. first of all, is that what you'd like to see and, and if so, how does the country actually go about seeing that the nationalist system is so entrenched? yeah, absolutely. i mean there's, there's a wide desire among large swats through the bargain public across all ethnic groups . for really meaningful, liberal democratic changes in this country to have a parliamentary democratic regime that would be aligned with the standards that we
1:35 pm
find. for instance, in most other european countries there's, there's wide support for that. but unfortunately, systems that are as entrenched as the current buzzing system is where very small sectarian actors have vide wide slots power over the way that things are actually decided in the country. it's very difficult, again, even for the majority of the bosnian public to translate its desires into political change. so it's a, it's a, it's a system that resembles more of what we would call a political oligarchy than any kind of meaningful, sort of open democratic regime as we would find, again, in other european countries. and of all the different bodies that will have the representatives for election this sunday explains for our audience or global audience, why the 3 way presidency is perhaps seen as the most important. right, well, the primary reason comes down to that. it is obviously the executive in the country and it has
1:36 pm
a wide influence over the way the government is formed. the way that mandates are handed out in terms of the legislative bodies, but also budget hurts given as foreign policy is decided by the state presidency. so the idea that, for instance, you would have not one but to fundamentally anti bosnian or anti said candidates, winning their respective fees among the main bossing term, nationalist obsessions party of yes. and it's the and they're close coalition partners in the main co op nationalist party, the h d z. this would be hugely destabilizing by here. it's not a country that has already, arguably aside from ukraine, probably the most politically volatile country in europe. okay, we'll leave it there. we thank you so much for joining us from. sorry, i've been hello . well, it's election day in brazil, and polls will soon open for what's expected to be one of the most divisive votes
1:37 pm
in the country's history. the former president louise in osteo lula da silva. as a comfortable opinion poll, lead over president arab, also narrow, but also narrow, has repeatedly told his supporters that he may not accept the results if he loses. manuel rap hello is in rio de janeiro. with this reports. the presidential elections are drawing near and on the streets of rio, there is a nato. there is no shortage of political opinions. am i this holly, my list for ties? i would like to see more schools, more hospitals, and for the candidate who vince to invest in the future of our children. though most here agree this election will be a defining moment for the future direction of the country. there's a lack of optimism that whoever wins the presidency will improve the lives of brazil's poorest citizens. and another way, i don't think any one will fix the situation in brazil. 6 some receive more, while others receive less. there is no health care,
1:38 pm
no education and there is nothing left for the pull. though officially, there are almost a dozen candidates running for president. the election is a race between incumbent president, jade balls, donado and former president received nass eula the cba who has been leading in the polls. political analysts here in brazil say the country is starkly divided along ideological lines. even now on the eve of the elections, the race between lula and both sonata is too close to predict. the less, you know, will you go economist model rashly says that while both lula and bull sonata have been vague in their campaign promises, they still polarized the electorate, though infernal phone to what a steering this polarization is, a rhetoric from both sides of the other is a rather with lula saying that wal sanara represents the radical right and balsam arrow, saying that lula represents the threat of communism. now hold on, a brazilian electoral law dictates that presidential candidates need at least 50
1:39 pm
