8:04 pm
ukrainian troops have launched a counter offensive in the south hud bill. hamid reports from the city of creevy re well, we're just bordering the region of her son from the north. this is a city that comes under regular air strikes, a believe to be fired from her. so now what's happening is that the ukrainians had been publicizing this southern offensive since the summer, and then to quite surprise the russians by carrying out and b, a counter offensive in the north east of the country. well now again, while all eyes were only men, the ukrainians, it seems decided that it was time to push probably because rainy season is going to come. and the terrain here in the south of the country bay flat and can become very muddy, making it very difficult for tanks to roll a. busy further south to try to get,
8:05 pm
take control of the whole of that his own region. officially we're only told that 2 villages have been liberated so far. but there is a lot of chatter on social media. there's also videos on tools or media that's show ukrainian forces. i think the flag in places they have reached. and then there's also confirmation coming out from their defense ministry in russia saying that in a place called the local car. for example, the russian forces found themselves overwhelmed by the amounts of thanks the ukrainians had an admission on that side even from the russia and pointed governor of care so that ukrainian army has been managing to push down along the nepa river and in different areas. iran supreme leader has spoken for the 1st time since mass demonstrations spread across the country. i have told her early hominy says
8:06 pm
that he feels heart broken by the death of masa many, but he criticized what he called planned protests. how many blamed the us and israel for the biggest protests iran has witnessed in years 22 year old and many died after she was detained by the morality police for violating headscarf rules in extra charge. bad wrong, it is either this right has been planned. if the death of this young girl did not happen, they would have found another pretext to create chaos in the country and harm the country's security, or who planned that. i explicitly say was the u. s. a zionist regime at their mercenaries like betray iranians outside the country on that ab or so 3rd, or has more from tara. it's significant in terms of giving a clarity to the state and establishment position here. so it's the 1st time since the beginning of the protest at his publicly speaking, he said that that that, that, that the security forces are the real victim of the wine. has that been used by the
8:07 pm
professors over the last 2 weeks. and there are the reports that a more than hands of the security forces have been killed by the writers alongside with protesters as well. he said that the mass, i mean is that was, was heartbreaking for him to. but the reactions to word that even before an appropriate investigation was not normal and it was organized. and he said that he job or my sam and his dad was a pretext for, for, for, for, for, for, for those were protesting. if there was an mas am in his that steel, they would find another way to, to, to, to somehow create a cows in the country. he said that, so this protests were planned and engineered by the usa and, and israel. so to say that the u. s. in israel don't want a stable and strong iran in the region, and the hold fast about this protest is about there. so that is the general understanding among the iranian officials here. so they believe that this is an
8:08 pm
international conspiracy against iran, and that this protest were provoked by the, by the, the foreign governments. and also that this, this protest are directly a madeline of the us and israel into iran's domestic politics. the british government has made a dramatic, you turn on its mini budget that was announced just 10 days ago. chancellor quasi courting is reversing his proposed scrapping of the top rate of income tax. the announcement and millions of dollars of unfunded tax cuts sent financial markets into spin with the pound, reaching record lows against the dollar. speaking at the conservative party conference in birmingham, just a short while ago, poor thing accepted that his decisions have caused problems. i know the plan put forward only 10 days ago has caused a little turbulence. i get it, i get it. we are listening and have listened. and now i want to focus on delivering the major parts of our growth package. because with energy bills, skyrocketing,
8:09 pm
a painful coven altima of war on our continent, a 70 year high tax burn, slowing global growth rates, and glacially slow infrastructure delivery. we couldn't simply do nothing on poor brandon reports on this story from the conservative party conference. it's been a very difficult conference, frankly, the party would normally come here 12 years in power. don't forget, on a, on a high. it's generally a celebrates removed, but it certainly hasn't been this time around because of the control vesee over the government's tax and boring plans are announced 10 days ago. i defended very robustly there in the opening sentences of the chancellors keynote speech to this conference, but not reacted well by the markets and in the wider public which saw in particular the abolition of the higher tax rate,
8:10 pm
which is levied on those highest honors in the u k, as a kind of budget for the rich, what quasi crossing was doing in the opening section of the speech that we managed to listen to was emphasized that the government plan for growth benefits everybody . and he emphasized that he said everybody, and i mean everybody benefits from higher growth and with the higher rate tax now struck the strapping of the higher rate tax. now not going to be scrapped. he was focusing very robustly on the other tax cuts that were proposed as part of that package 10 days ago. such as things like stamp duty, which is a tax on the sale of houses. our income tax for the middle ranking people, basic rate of income tax, which is coming down by one percent and the abolition of a well the they're not going to increase national insurance, which is another tax who's emphasizing that although all the attention has been on the tax breaks for the rich in actual fact a package, the totality of the package had
8:11 pm
a lot of tax breaks from middle income and lower on us as well. and that certainly is what quasi quoting is trying to focus attention on. because frankly, it's been a torrid time for the conservatives over the last 2 or 3 days. a following that you turn earlier on monday. the pound is bounced back from its record low against the u . s. dollar last week, but it may take a lot more to calm the financial markets as need barker. sports from london loses it doesn't take a financial expert to read these graphs and understand the turmoil, the british economies facing but after a week of market convulsions that pushed the pound to an all time low against the dollar. now some relief and the response of the government screeching, you turn on their tax cut for top burners. as markets opened across europe, the pound bounce back in value against the dollar. you got the pound rising roughly back to where it was before the many budget a pricing on what we think the bank will do next has changed. so previously we expected to add another 2 percent or so trenches rates nice. right. and that to
