you case economy already written, facing a financial crisis. central banks are hiking interest rates. we ask about the global impact, plus y movies from bollywood and norwood are fighting to stay in the spotlights. counting the cost on colleges for half a century indigo die is old. bob moved up, what can i? so what did the last ticket he and others in northern nigeria have watched helplessly as a business struggle and becomes dissipated. growth making technology has changed over time, but not at this di pete's here income. and it's the same that's met some of the products uncompetitive. the dumping of chemically treated fabrics. yeah. like in most african markets is a major source of concern for local producers. there is widespread content here, but so even the few kits that remain we'll also have 2 loops, bringing him in more than 500 years history. ah,

north korea fine as a missile, which flies high above japan, that's 17 times the speed of sound, south korea and japan warning they'll respond. ah, hello, i'm diamond jordan, this is andrea live from de also coming up. ah, the russian parliament votes unanimously for the annexation of 4 regions in ukraine where keeps military continues to retake territory. morning in indonesia for the $125.00 people killed in a stadium stampede, a police chief another officers and now under investigation. and an embarrassing you turn for the new but his government, the chancellors forced to abolish tax cuts for the rich after a negative reaction from both the markets on the public. ah,

no korea has fought a ballistic missile over northern japan. the japanese government warned it citizens to take cover and was forced to suspend some train services in northern regions. the missile was launched off north korea's east coast and fell into the pacific ocean. it was pill, yann's, 5th, round of weapons testing. in the last 10 days, though, equally jo cool took a look at it and all the ballistic missile launched that flew over our country is not only an issue for a craft vis until we heard it's also a serious and problematic action. this involves the safety of residents living in the area where the missile flew over. we have strongly protested against north korea in the strongest terms. so let's bring in robert kelly. he's a professor of international relations at pusan. national university joins us live from boston in south korea. robert, good to happy back with that. so we know that north korea has fought a series of ballistic missiles recently. why is this one so different in terms of its range and height and its timing?

yeah. will flying over japan is obviously a real risk, right. i mean, as you saw as your, your reporter and mentioned, japanese government actually told people to take shelter on this is something japanese haven't done in the why on. there's actually been a bait in japan about whether or not there should be civil defense. whether or not the japanese government make an effort to actually try to prepare the japanese citizenry or north korean missile straits. my own times to the north koreans don't actually intend to strike japan. that this is sort of fairly typical north korean behavior. and so far, they just don't really care about the sovereignty of the states around them. you may recall that it was launched a missile past that went south or in the missile broke up near the philippines and they just don't care that much. and this is of course, you know, one of the problems that we have in north korea is that they just don't follow the rules very much. and this was, i think, a really good example of that. yeah, that's an interesting point. you make robert because this is the 5th time, but in north korean missile has flown directly over japan with the japanese government even warning its people to take cover. but different. despite that strong condemnation, japan seems pretty palace to do anything about these launches. yeah,

and i think we all are, which is to say south korean, the united states as well. it's not really clear to me what we can do to stop these things. there was some obvious magic bullet or some really clear solution. we would have tried it already. i'm having some ideas, we should try to use missile defense to shoot down these tests on both japan and south korea have missile defense systems about their own and us systems installed. perhaps you could do that, but it doesn't work very well. it's very hard to actually hit the target. it's sort of analogous to having a bullet with a bullet and people are concerned if we missed would that make it look like missile defense work very well. you're actually, you can do, sir. preemptive strikes. putting that, of course it's, it's usually risky and so that's why these things keep happening, right. we keep talking about sort of a top response that's of the south korean president said this morning, but it's just not clear what that would be. right. that wouldn't put us on a war footing. yeah, let's stay with that for a 2nd. run it because i mean your there in south korea, how do you see the south korean response playing out to this just a war of words or could we see some kind of military response and what could that

mean? it's almost certainly going to be rhetorical. again, because that's what we've seen in the past and south korea and japan are both fairly vulnerable to north korean missiles. right. so they said, missile defense doesn't work very well, right? i mean, we could do more, but i think i would like to see both parents are great, really invest in this. i think it's the best shot we have to have some kind of roof, but it doesn't really work terribly well. you know, sanctioned, is already pretty heavily sanctioned. we could do something more extremely trying to warranty it. we would corn, teen q during the cuban missile crisis. but again, that gets us off the close to a war footing. i mean, i've heard these things sort of kicked around here, sort of these more stream idea of everyone from the conferences, but all of them risk a major north korean, lashing out. i mean, our major north korean sort of provocation response. we just don't know where that would go. that would mean a major conference, so we don't do it. just a final thought. you, robert, what sort of message then is north korea trying to send here? what is kim's i'm going to actually want? this is about the young young try to get the attention of the u. s. and the attention of japan who have largely ignored the north korean leader. yeah,

i think one way to read these pets pretty frequently is that there's sort of a demand for attention. northgate doesn't like being understood as a failed korea with a weird korea or somehow it's not a real one compared to south korea, which is of course the truth. and so one of the things the north koreans do is sort of trying to get our attention or grab our attention to the sense of hydrant often around elections or appointments or something like that, where it's in the american mid term elections are coming up. you provoke in japan is always sort of a winner in korea because of the difficult history in the past. i know it's not really clear to me if there's any one particular thing, the north koreans looking for from japanese just generally, you know, they want to missile program and that's pretty well established. and so they're going to continue to test. and if they need to send them south or send them east or something like that, you know, they have a record of doing that and they'll probably continue to do it. rather, katie, always good to get your thoughts. thank you very much and have a lot to 0, but thank you now ukrainian forces of achieve their biggest breakthrough in the south since the

war began. they pushed through russian defences and are advancing rapidly along the disney pro river, ukraine's military release. this video showing soldiers raising their country's flag in a freshly retaken village. the games by a key could threaten supply lines for thousands of russian troops. moscow's forces had been accused of stopping residence from leaving occupied areas junior. but the doors of sir, that's to day, the offensive movement of our army and defenders continued. there are new liberated settlements and several regions. blue, fierce fighting continues in many areas on the frontline, but more and more occupy as trying to escape what 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. these are the zeros hot abdul, hamid has more now from the city of creevy reef. 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 to quite surprise the russians by carrying out the 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 children media that so ukrainian forces, wasting the flag in places they have reached. and then there's also confirmation

coming out from a defense ministry in russia saying that in a place called the bulk of, for example, the russian forces found themselves overwhelmed by the amounts of thanks the ukrainians had. the is 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. what does might un chief in western countries the carrying the annexation illegal russians, lower house of parliament, the duma has approved moscow claim to for regions in ukraine. what could i do? a new law has now formerly incorporated care. some done at still hands comes up arissa into the russian federation. russian controlled air as in those regions held referenda just over a week ago. moscow says people voted overwhelmingly annexations views. i'm sure

that their adoption will serve the benefit of the entire multinational people of our country, of which citizens of the dynette skin hans republics, as well as their parisha and her son regions will now rightfully become part within the russian federation. mama, val has more now from moscow the morrow, the, the senate, which is here called the, the federal council will also ratify this, this treaties. and that is an amendment to the constitution, essentially by this amendment. russia will not have 18 iron entities, the makeup of its federation, including the 2 republic, something. yes, can the handbook and also the 2 regions of her son. and they're already talking about the border, how it is going to be traced for new guns and traps on the spokesman of the company and said the board will be the same as that of 2014,

when those 2 some declared. the republic, sir announced the independence of secession from ukraine. with regards to a house on ends up patricia, he said there will be consultations with the people in those regions where understand that the 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 rushes, of course, being mobilized. and that means much more fighting needed for the russia stepping up it's, it's forces and resources in order to make, to make this a fact that investigators are trying to find out what led to indonesia, stadium disaster, which left a 125 people dead, including 32 children in my lung,

east java cities, police street and some other officers have been sacked and the now under investigation. jessica washington reports from my life. ah and he hurry on to thought this football match would be a safe outing for his family. he says they were already getting ready to go home when police fired t guess the chaos of the darkness and smoke they was split up young. i begin. i liked i are juggle, i knew i needed to save my baby. am i still in from the stance, asking people below to catch him? then i jumped down to get here. my wife had told me of to keep him safe, and i told her then i went back to look for my wife and 2 daughters. i found my daughter's bodies at midnight and my wife's body an hour and a half later, the bad dangler liked edward. he says their bodies were blew from suffocating. this is one of the gates of cont johan stadium. now the site of emotional

the auto. bosis gave hard line conservative candidates to congress, the senate and governors. an unprecedented boost practically eliminating brazil's political center, right incumbent president jade ball. so nato may have come in a close 2nd in the 1st round of the presidential race. but his once weak political party was hands down the winner of the national elections defying all predictions. and that's no small feat. an example, both scenarios, former environmental minister, regardless, salus was elected to congress. during the pandemic, he was recorded telling a cabinet meeting that the health emergency would serve as an excellent distraction for cattle farmers to overrun the amazon rain forest autumn. another person is that mighty sadness. a hard core conservative will poses progressive women's rights and has been elected senator, over king elijah, now you over it's up to the people to choose who they identify with. they were the

candidates who represent both scenarios, policies look, bah, in all this marks a major shift to i think what's happening in brazil since before the election is that the environment, the political environment in brazil, the zeitgeist of brazil can see that is conservative wearing knuckle service of country lula is on the section lula is of course, the former left when president into scored 48 percent of the vote in the presidential race. and we'll face also narrow again in a run off later this month. but winning won't be easy. also, nato has a huge advantage over his rival, as president. he can address his compatriots any time he walks on television or on radio. and he also has access to the executive check book, which as he's already suggested, you will continue to use to help offset the impact of inflation. he's wasting no time. monday the government announced it was bringing forward

a welfare payment due at the end of the month and a 2nd 15 days before the runoff to see and human al jazeera. so paolo, you a sector of stay down to me blinking as met columbia as new president, gustavo petro lincoln arrived in bogota on a 5 day trip through south america. the 2 disgust regional challenges, including migration drug trafficking, and recovery after the cobra. 19 the u. k. government has been forced into a u turn, abandoning plans to scrap be top rated income tax for high honors. the controversial policy was met with turmoil on the markets and a revolt within the prime minister's own conservative party. open reports from an annual conference in birmingham. ah, delegates arriving at conference on monday were greeted with the theme tune to a slapstick tv comedy blaring from a protest as p. a system. no lady is not parts her name.

because just 24 hours after prime minister les tress had said she was absolutely committed to abolishing the talk tax rate paid by britons richest trust. as chancellor was announcing a screeching, you turn the tax on top and as we'll stay, i know the plan put forward only 10 days ago has cooled, 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 paths 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 the own parliamentary and peace. this comparative speech by the chancellor quasi quoting a clear attempt to put the party now on the front foot instead was to go al jazeera . are you happy? i'm 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 40 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 through the hassle and they were lost in this screeching ye turn, policy experts of expressed surprise that the government could have been so out of touch with public sentiment going forward. there is some difficult decisions to be made around public spending around public services. if they, again choose to ignore their job as representatives of people. they will hit a huddles. this has been a deeply uncomfortable conference for the case, ruling conservatives raising questions about the new prime minister's authority and the new chancellor's credibility. clotting has had his chance to reiterate the case for his growth plant. all eyes now turned to the prime minister's speech on weapons

. they pull brennan al jazeera birmingham. meanwhile, european currency traders are responded positively to the british governments. you turn the pound as bounce back from its reco low against the us dollar, but it may take a lot more to calm the financial markets. me back a report from number. 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 that tax cut for top burners. as markets opened across europe, the pound bounce back in value against the dollar. you bought the pound rising roughly back to where it was before the many budget a pricing on what we think the bank thing we'll do next has changed. so previously we expected to add another 2 percent or so to interest rates. nice. right. in that prep, at $1.00, so the markets a comma, i think, and i sort of gives the government time to go back to check it's homework if you

like. and then come back to the markets 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's plan to scrap the top rate of tax for the highest a 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 into come some public services including welfare, affecting the poorest people in the united kingdom. why? because this the government ramps, or 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 cap on 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 share . all comes down to an ideology. this includes a knocks to work. and those countries that do well which deliver the most well fly, they do the on the back of decent taxation, i believe in responsibility community and society. and that requires those that can afford 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 and prioritize growth and economic project. government critic se works for the few. instead of the many. neeve barker al jazeera london that bo gary us forth election

and 2 years looks to have brought back former prime minister blanca boris off. but as andrew simmons reports in the capital, sophia, it's forcing some bulgarians to make difficult choices about the future. it's the start of university for these students and so fear some of them talk about the stagnation of politics in their country. but there's also a weary acceptance that people who want a better future will leave bulgaria remaining here and having to deal with all of this is usually the hardest path to take. and not many people are added to that peer in bulgaria. our politicians steal, they thief us. but we're left with nothing. leon generation politics in bulgaria has been in crisis since major protest last year against corruption. young people played a big part in the demonstrations and the action brought about the fall of

a government lead then by boy co boys off. and now he's back his party winning the most folks in this election or is off is seen particularly by the young as a man who represents the past, rather than the future votes in this election, went in favor of the status quo, rather than change. now, boris off has to try to put together a coalition. it won't be easy because he has far more political enemies than friends. it's during his decade of power. the moon, a 1000000 bulgarians left their homes to seek better living standards overseas. like the owner of this bar and restaurant running a successful business in spain. his customers look on their former home now as a distant place with big problems called what are those boys? all of the countries are having difficult just now and this is because of the war. there is a crisis in every country,

not gas. bavaria is not good. if i'm honest and back home, many people are just worried about the number leaving bulgaria. it's also those they leave behind, their imagination is much more connected with a bass them with the future. um, and this is something that will guarantee politics will have to fight. they will have to create conditions for the youngsters to return. also, in order to make their parents and grandparents be buried, the will game is situ. again, there is a major gap between the young who want change and older people who look back fondly . on the past. andrew simmons al jazeera sophia, an investigation into the us national women's soccer league is found that emotional abuse and sexual misconduct are systemic in the sport. the review was launched off the 2 former players came forward with allegations of harassment and sexual

question. 5 of a 10 had coaches in the women's league last season's fire or step down through to allegations of misconduct. when a washington is a former national woman sulkily player. she says the revelations of sad and shocking. unfortunately, the system that is, is broken. it's flawed and it's bad, but it becomes the norm that players learn to expect that and to take it and not be like they, as women as girls can't speak up. and so personally, i know myself, that's partly why i stepped away from the game and many others i meant to have done the same. but it's something that there's not that support a resources of people that you can turn to that are going to listen and actually take action, meaningful action, help resolve it. you find a lot of people, the styling. and as victims just continues to perpetuate because there aren't those allies and supporters that you should have, it's tough because you find yourself just becoming dumb to it. and it's bad to even say that, but that's the hardware. yeah.
