russia's parliament approves the annexation of 4 ukrainian regions just as cubes for forces eat into that territory with new breakthroughs in southern house on ah, lauren taylor, this is al jazeera life in london. was that coming up? iran's supreme leader breaks his silence on the protest. so unless i mean his death blaming them on the us and israel, indonesia mourns and demands answers after a stampede, at a football match left a 125 people dead. thus, i knew the plan what thought only 10 days ago as cool. a little turbulence r u. k. government is forced into a humiliating new turn over its plans. take up taxes for the rich.

on the front line, but more and more occupy as a trying to escape the enemy. army is suffering more and more losses. and there is a growing understanding that russia made a mistake by starting the war against ukraine. the needs are delaney desemore from the city? clearly in southern ukraine. well, we're just bordering the region of her son from the north. this is a city that comes under regular air strikes, i believe, to be fired from her. so now what's happening is that the ukrainians had been publicizing this sovereign southern offensive since the summer, and then took by 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 on the man the ukrainians, it seems decided that it was time to push probably because rainy season is gonna come and the terrain here in the south of the country bay,

plaza can become very muddy, making it very difficult for tanks to roll for further south to try to get, 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 for media that so ukrainian forces, wasting the flag in places they have reached. and then there's also confirmation coming out from a defense minister 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. there is an admission on that side even from the russia and pointed governor, of course, on that ukrainian army has been managing to push down along the nepa river

will also ratify this, this treaties. and that is an amendment to the constitution, essentially by this amendment to russia will not have $809.00 entities, the makeup of its federation, including the 2 republics upton. yes. can the hans and also the 2 regions of her son, and that's what he's here. they're already talking about the border, which is going to be placed for guns and crafts on the spokesman of the company and said the board will be the same as thought of 2014 when those 2 some 1st declared. the republic, sir announced independence of secession from ukraine. with regards to a hudson ends up patricia. he said there will be consultations with the people in those regions. we understand that russia doesn't control or both territories right

now and that it is even losing ground there. so, i mean, it will be a very difficult battle going on for the russians to, to reach the boarded up. they are talking about as russians of course, being mobilized. and that means much more fighting needed for the russia stepping up its its forces and resources in order to make, to make this a factor. ah, iran supreme leader has broken his silence on the anti government protest, sweeping his country, blaming them on the us. and israel writes groups say radiant police have used gas clubs and live ammunition to quality unrest. and dozens of people have died. demonstrations respond by the death of a women in police custody last month. i so said our reports from the capital terran,

happen, they would have found another pretext to create chaos in the country and harm the country. security and harmony has said, massa, i mean is that was heartbreaking for him to. but he criticized people's reactions before the result of an official investigation at fisher toyota. but you're also brimley there. the president and parliament speaker have also and asked that a final report on master, i mean is that will be released soon. and n one found responsible will be held accountable, but many people are already questioning its credibility. russell said that i'll just iraq, tara, the u. k government has been forced into an embarrassing, you turn on plans to scrap the top rate of income tax for hyannis. a controversial policy was part of a package of economic measures which caused turmoil on the currency in bond markets and spoke to rebellion within the prime minister and conservative party. oh brennan reports from the parties annual conference in benjamin. ah,

delegates arriving as conference on monday were greeted with the theme tune to a slapstick tv comedy glaring from a protest as p a system. no lady is not parted because just 24 hours after prime minister list trust. it said she was absolutely committed to polishing the talk. tax rates paid 5 wittons richest trust as chancellor was announcing a screeching. you turn the tax on top and as we'll stay, i know the plan. what forward only 10 days ago has cool a little turbulence. i get it, i get it. ah, we are listening and have listened. and now i want to focus on delivering the major parts of our growth package. this conference could scarcely have gone any worse for less trust so far. the agenda derailed by a combination of tone, deaf policy and a lack of support from her own, parliamentary and peace. this comparative speech by the chancellor quasi quoting

a clear attempt to put the party now on the front porch instead. mister, go, i'll just, sarah. are you happy? sorry outcome. but scrapping the top tax rate was only part of a bigger package which continues to divide the party. former minister michael cove has criticized it as an conservative and other rebels have joined him. the opposition labor party is crowing. their instincts were to cut taxes for the wealthiest and fancy paid for by borrowing, which in the end current and future tax payers will have to pay for it. it was obvious, they weren't meant to get this straight. the has to come and they were forced into this screeching, you turn policy experts have expressed surprise that the government could have been so out of touch with the public sentiment going forward. there is some difficult decision to be made around public spending around public services. if they again choose to ignore their job as representatives of people, they will hit big hurdles. this has been

a dc uncomfortable conference for the case living conservatives raising questions about the new prime minister's authority. and the new chancellor's credibility. motto has had his chance to reiterate the case with his growth flag. all eyes now turned to the prime minister's speech on weapons. they pulled brennan al jazeera permian. european currency traders have responded positively to the u. 10 with a pound returning to level seen before the u. k. government revealed its economic plans 10 days ago. it does need barker reports from london's financial district. there still concern over how many budget will affect homeowners and those on benefits. this is, 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 in 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 cleanable due next has changed. so previously we expected to add another 2 percent or sorry, trenches rights, nice way to not to prep at $1.00. so the markets a comma, i think, and it sort of gives the government time to go back to check his homework if you like. and then come back to the market in a few weeks with a different forecast in terms of what they can to after to spend. and he's borrow energy to cut in terms of government spending. but even after the move, the mortgage market remains in trouble. many house buyers have seen the cost of loans double since the government's many budget with lenders suspending hundreds of offers. the government's financial credibility remains in question. this may be a u turn and the government plan to scrap the top rate of tax for the highest vernace for this is anything but an ideological u turn. and the government's dash for economic growth. a budget that could well still lead to come some public services including welfare affecting the poorest

people in the united kingdom. why? because as the government ramps are boring to pay for other tax cuts, it also wants to make so called efficiency savings. the prime minister refusing to commit to increasing welfare benefits in line with inflation while at the same time lifting the capital bankers bonuses in a bit to make britain more attractive to investors. but it's a gamble. many business owners and even bankers sto by julia davies is a member of patriotic 1000000. as u. k, a group of wealthy investors calling on the government to increase their tax. it all comes down to an ideology. this is conclusive, knocks to work and place countries that do well which deliver them nice, well fly they did on the back of decent taxation, i believe in responsibility community in society and that because those that can afford it to pay tax. so i don't see tax as a burden. i think it's something that we should all be proud and welcome doing and

just be glad that we can afford to do it. after years of economic stagnation, the government wants to hotwire the economy into action to embolden trade, the prioritized growth and economic project. government critic se works for the few . instead of the many, neeve barker al jazeera london still to come this up and those nears election results overshadowed by a rule change with questionable timing. and the 1st nobel prize of 2022 is awarded for research using dna that's tens of thousands of years old. ah hello, we got some rather nasty weather in the forecast. the eastern parts of australia over the next couple of days. the possibility of some flooding, so we do have some warnings in force. first area of low pressure will gradually
