this is al jazeera. ah, it's a pleasure to have you with us today. i'm several venues. this is the news, our live from door coming up in the next 60 minutes. russia's parliament ratified the annexation of 4 regions of ukraine as russian forces face set back on the front line of south korea and the u. s. launch fighter jets conducting precision bombing drills after a north korean miss, i lodge fear and uncertainty and burkina faso after its 2nd military coup in 8 months. and small is the new big nobel prize for physics goes to pioneering trio, who work with the tiniest elements of our universe and in sport, we look ahead to a heavy weight crash in the weight. the champions league. r sloan, of his inter milan with both sides looking to pick up points in the tournaments group of death.

ah, so the upper house of russia's parliament has approved the annexation of 4 regions in ukraine. the legislation will now go to the kremlin for a final stamp of approval by president vladimir putin. however, russian forces have been struggling to hold ukrainian regions that they want to annex. where we challenge reports from keith. this is probably not what moscow's politicians envisage when they think of russian control dead russian soldiers in the streets. the ukrainian flag flying in recaptured the man thoughts. it's the reality of a war that is not going moscow's way to him is not only that on tuesday, russia's upper house unanimously ratified the annexation of 4 ukrainian regions. but russia's grip on them, his tenuous at best and weakening. so whenever those of sad to day, the offensive movement of our army and all our defenders continued. yeah,

newly liberated settlements in several regions. vs fighting continues in many areas on the front, but, but the prospect of these hostilities is obvious. more and more que buyers are trying to escape the enemy army suffering more and more losses. and there is a growing understanding. the russia made a mistake by starting the war against ukraine. winter is not far off, but after her home and lemon was hit, 85 year old valentina cooks on an open fire and lives in a basement. yes, i was standing in the hall about 5 meters way. when a boomed, i was thrown back. god forbid! now i can't hear well, what's that mean? that was the victory for ukraine retaking. the man came with costs. a soldier lies in the shattered remains of a petrol station and his comrades begin the process of sending him home.

we fight for our land for our children, so that our people can live better. but all this comes at a very high price in the southern hassan region. another ukranian breakthrough is racking up rapid successes. ukraine's high command is aware the window for big territorial gains may be closing as autumn sets in battlefield conditions will get muddy and slow, and rushes, poorly defended positions will be better manned with mobilized soldiers or we talents out 0. give. okay, geography matters here. so let's take a look at what precisely russia and hoping to antics these are the 4 provinces that the kremlin says voted to join russia in referendum. the area in red shows what russian forces actually control. moscow says that all of done yes can, will have, which you see highlighted. there will be part of the russian federation, even though moscow is not in full control of these provinces as we speak. and as for her son ends upper region, further south,

many areas are outside moscow's control, and the criminal has yet to clarify what exactly it is claiming within those regions. that's bring in families put here, he's a chief executive officer at rest. moose in global and international political consultancy firm, you're also a former director of policy planning at nate. so it's good to have you on the show . sublease your brains, recent military advances have been quite remarkable. can they sustain it though? well i think the can sustain it provided real sustain, no support of ukrainians. and here what they need is obviously apart from munitions and artillery shells is make of ice force. so tanks in middle than to actually finish the job of the council offensive, especially in the south where the russian denser and much better a queen than you do not. do you think that the ukrainians will be able to hold the territory that they've taken the or do you expect that some point of pushback from

russian military forces? i ask you this because in the last few hours we've heard from the spokesperson of the ukrainian army and he says rockets are now falling on towns that they've recently liberated in the south. i think it's very hard to predict exactly how, what is essentially of a dynamic war we. we live all the new coming both and year. but i think what we can know is that provided the div, the ukrainians, what they're asking, which is al defense defense, to protect their gays and receiving them population and make it nice. horses are regular tanks in order to advance and move the troops all will in the hold the ground and finally longer range to rockets in order to keep on the heating the russian supplies. i think provided we give most things in the coming month. they're willing to be able to not only me that they gain and their, their recovery territory, but also to make markets. by the way,

when you say we just to clarify for viewers, you mean the western powers that have been supplying ukraine with military aids such as the us exactly the in nations. do you, do you see any reason that they would stop supplying military aid? because they have all said that they're in it for the long haul. yes, exactly. i know that was the test last friday when a announce the got an extension of the 4 could by territories disposed to cut off a political love where, you know, once he has said that, he assumed that potentially be international support for ukraine will somehow to hold off somehow, according to the russian budget, cut me into a direct consultation with russian forces, but clearly good to several and brother. as i knew, crania, except make clear that we continue on the same basis as before, because fundamentally, deceased, we're speaking about ukrainian territory or, and,

and, and equally, russia has made very clear that they're not going to back down from this. in fact, that was partly the reason for the, for the partial mobilization. at some point, do you expect to see the effects on the battlefield of these 300000 men? the vladimir putin is mobilizing i think it is again hard to speculate because it also depends on the capacity of the russian forces to train, absorb into great, and we supply those of fresh horses. and so far we have not seen a great capacity from the russians to do so. however, honestly throwing man i, the problem which is, seems what they put in these now resulting to which is similar to what stanley was doing to, from hundreds of thousands of recruited, you know, half the recruiting russian men might indeed make the b service. but compared to them, ukrainian side, but it's not necessarily going to phone or going to change the dynamic of the ground, including the fact that ukrainians, thanks to international support,

have actually the quantitative age over the, the russians detention weapons to steps on a fabulous put to you thank you very much for coming on the show that a pleasure speaking with you. thank you very much. a north korean miss launch has prompted strong condemnation from japan, from south korea and from the united states washington to allow for a meeting of the un security council on wednesday to discuss the action. it's north korea, the longest range missile yet, and the 1st to fly over japan since 2017 south korea conducted air drills with the u. s. air force in response. it carried out what it called a precision bombing drill. japan and us are also holding joint military exercises rob mcbride reports from so this is a major escalation and follows a prolonged period of increased missile testing by north korea. the intermediate range missile flew over northern japan, prompting a warning for people there to take cover. it landed in the pacific ocean and

brought this response from japan's prime minister. because on the firing which hold a recent series of launches by north korea is a reckless act, and i strongly condemn it. it's 5 years since the north last fired missiles over the top of japan when relations were at them most tense. in decades. burger gwinnett, g, q a, b. it threatens the peace and security of the region. it is a serious challenge for the entire international community. and there's been similar condemnation from south korea, north korea fire the medium long range missile with a range of 4000 kilometers over japan. as i sat on armed forces, they looked over 1st. such reckless nuclear provocation will face a decisive response from our military and our allies and the international community. already facing the toughest sanctions and largely shunned by the international community. the north themes. undeterred with north korea leader kim

jong, run declaring last month that he's country is now officially a nuclear armed power and testing longer range missiles seems to send that message to the world. yeah, i think one way to read these pets pretty frequently is that there's sort of a demand for attention. north korea doesn't like being understood as a fail korea, where the weird korea has a real one compared to south. this launch comes as the us and it's south korean and japanese allies wrap up navy drills led by the ronald reagan. the 1st exercise by an american aircraft carrier to korean waters in 5 years. and with warnings from south korean intelligence officials that the north could soon conduct its 1st nuclear test since 2017 robert bride al jazeera. so let's hear a little bit more on the reaction from the us. now our white house correspondent, kimberly, how can join us, what are you hearing from the biden administration? kimberly how the white house press briefing is still under way the press

secretary, updating the media, some of the bilateral, a trilateral coordination that has been taking place in recent hours. u. s. president joe biden, holding a call with his japanese counterpart, japanese prime minister to underscore, than reaffirm the iron clad commitment of the united states to japanese defense, as well as to south korea. as a result of this lodge, we also know that the defense secretary lloyd austin, holding calls with his counterparts to send the same message. now the white house press secretary just moments ago, once again, underscoring the statement that was released overnight that the united states is condemning this as they say it, a dangerous and reckless decision where they say by north korea to launch this is miss. i'll saying this is the stabilizing, it shows blatant disregard for you as security council resolutions,

as well as international security and safety norms. now, we should point to out that this has prompted a number of joint exercises that have taken place with the united states, a japan for one has coordinated the sea of japan. there's also bit of coordination of exercises with south korea in the yellow sea. now, this is again a worrying sign of escalation. so the white house, once again, underscoring an invitation to north korea that it has offered many times before, but has to this point been rebuffed and that is the need for diplomacy and dialogue . the white house calling for this once again inviting the db r k to the table without pre conditions. something they say that they are encouraging saying this is a need for this once again, that is being underscored and at the same time in the absence of this, they will continue to coordinate bilateral and trilateral actions with their partners and allies. i. kimberly, how can reporting live from washington?

thank you very much. now, libya and turkey have signed a new preliminary deal on energy exploration in the eastern mediterranean. the agreement has forth angry reactions from greece to. let's take a look at the map again, geography matters. here's the background in 2019 turkey and libya signed an agreement establishing an exclusive economic zone in the mediterranean, greece condemned. this. athens said that the zone overlapped with its maritime orders or kia was also drilling in the waters around cyprus, which angered the greek speaking southern half of the island anchor controls. the northern half emily katrina has more from the libyan capital. a senior turkish delegation, visits tripoli, to discuss trade defense and energy, and signs a deal with the internationally recognized government to cooperate and exploring and drilling for oil and gas. we then will him at tech he had. it's vital to

confirm the importance of the agreement that was signed today. the memorandum of understanding concerning oil, energy, and gas, especially in the shadow of the ukrainian crazes and its international economic repercussions on the world. libya has africa's largest reserves of crude oil, but years of conflict and political divisions have devastated production in oil blockade by eastern forces launched in april lead to production, slumping to 200000 barrels a day. the country now produces 1200000 barrels daily, but wants to do more. the turks see they can help their move, their denisha color, the hydrocarbon agreement aimed to reach a win win situation for both sides on land and at sea for research. drilling for both turkish and libyan companies. but the memorandum signed on one day has angered some and re ignited disputes over a maritime agreement,

signed by turkey and libya in 2019. that deal created an exclusive economic zone in contested waters in the eastern mediterranean. both greason egypt, see the internationally recognized government in tripoli does not have the authority to conclude international agreements. but some political analysts disagree. this is the matter between turkey and libya and hare egypt has no right of interfering or comical on that. i think it's proper for egypt to stop interfering in libyan affairs and keep to its own business. details of the deal between libya and turkey have not been published. the e u has called for further clarification. st. such actions could undermine regional stability and with tensions already rising. many in the eastern mediterranean are feeling concerned. ma, trina, al jazeera, chablis,

money to the states which is really being blamed for misusing the money for, for corruption, for decades that nearly bankrupt state cannot pay the banks back. and bank say they don't have enough money to get them to get for the people. it's believed a $100000000000.00 and deposits are trapped and banks and banks have approximately $20000000000.00. that is why they're giving these monthly withdrawals. at least 3 people have died and 12 are missing. after a boat carrying we're hinge, refugees, think of bangladesh coast. the vessel was bound from malaysia. many were fleeing dire conditions in cox's bazaar camp, which houses 1000000 refugees most have lived there since leaving a military crackdown and neighboring man more. 5 years ago. a power is slowly being restored in bangladesh after a good failure cause a nationwide blackout. also here is tons your children in the capitol darker went

other parts of the towns and cities across the country still don't have power, making things very complicated. people are not able to communicate with their mobile phones up to the internet. but as the government say, they're trying their best to restore, we don't know the reason behind it. making an inquiry into what was the reason behind the power of a trailer. a delegation represent the representing west african states as meeting burkina faso, new hunt leader after a qu. but representatives from eco was, have been met with protests. demonstrators are accusing the regional body of interfering in the countries internal affairs and many of calling on russia for help. nicholas hack explain tourist is a russian movie for an african audience. russian fighters from the wagner's group are seen helping african soldiers combat armed groups, shoulder to shoulder, for russia. this is an effort to win hearts and minds in country suffering, attacks from arcadia, an eyesore for france. its russian propaganda on

back in 2016, it has a more diffused level of internal power. different commanders control their areas. so there's not such a bird to sticker group in command, so the leadership does represent the majority of the year land, but differences among the ranks have indeed the in the past, complicated the possibility of a dialogue between the colombian state in the year line. and now it adds to that the fact that the year land has been growing in parts of columbia that were before under the influence of the fark. and it also has expanded its operation in at least a dozen estates inside venezuela. so there's also an issue there where the venezuelan government will have to play a key part in reducing their activities inside venezuela. the 1st step here

will probably be the announcement of ah, bilateral ceasefire, both to their leadership of the land and the columbian government have said that they are talking to reach a dat ceasefire before the negotiations star in earnest. the air at some point in the 1st week of november. another important thing here, i think is the fact that at they said that they will not start from 0. there have been years of negotiations in the past. there are a number of agreements that have already been reached as so this gives us a bigger opportunity to these stocks. and obviously also the fact that this is there's a difference the government in place in columbia. i left this government for the 1st time the president used to be part of a rebel organization and the yellow leadership had said that they feel that they

can more easily talk with this government than previous ones. alessandro won't be any reporting live from both dine columbia. thank you very much. still ahead on al jazeera russians are streaming into georgia and the influx is posing some tricky questions for political leaders. their full steam ahead, kenya is harnessing geothermal power. and it's hoping to lift millions of people out of poverty at the same time. and the 40 niners proved too good again for one of their biggest rivals. we've got nfl action coming up later on in the show to stay true for that. ah hello there, let's look to the middle east and it's largely quiet across the region. much of a wet and windy weather can be found farther north slipping across, talking,

of fossil after a military coup on friday. com has now returned to the capital deposed hunter leader paul he. deborah has left for neighbouring togo. the upper house of russia's parliament has approved the annexation of 4 regions in ukraine. the un and western allies say the move is illegal. the legislation will now go to the kremlin for a final stamp of approval. it's get you more on that story. now president vladimir putin says the territory belongs to russia, but he may struggle to hold on to it as ukraine's counter offensive continues. mohammed vow reports from moscow, if they did not go out. and so it was the $170.00 members of the russian senate unanimously voted yes to the annexation of 80 percent of ukraine's internationally recognized territory. despite international condemnation uses the country close. on monday, the lower house did the same brokers show. she wouldn't stop watching industry report feature today the u. s. have subjugated almost the entire west,

mobilizing it to turn ukraine into a tool in a war against russia. drugs just like hitler, st most european countries to war in an attack on the u. s. s. r. just like then, today's west midlands are bound to fails was good. one, find by president flood to be put in the new constitutional laws become official in russian federation. and moscow will draw it up and that of european on the battlefield. the reality is different. russia only partially controls the 4 regions it has claimed its army has been losing ground across the territory. its been occupying last month president led me to put in and now the mobilization of up 230-0000 reservists, 200000 of them. already been deploy training is underway in 80 centers across the country, but it's still being trained to 5 portable i'm to thank you. good,

i need to launches reveal, train them how to run into battle, where you wanna be reduced. the wonderful after weeks of confusion and protest against the mobilization rushes defense minister said again to reassure the public of the color. it was only for army service with some young conscript for routine compulsory military service. want to be deployed to the front line. but that won't listen. the challenge is russia's facing in its efforts to consolidate gains on the ground, nor in selling its war, both at home and abroad. how much fun and disease moscow and georgia is government is facing a political dilemma. as more and more russians cross into the country, most of trying to avoid immobilization order announced by president vladimir putin just last month. iran con reports from lisi. it's empty now, but in recent days, georgias parliament has seen a serious rift opened up between the government and the opposition. and this little

agreement on anything related to russia. the govern says that since september 21, a 115000 russians of arrived, the opposition says the figures closer to 500000. that the an opposition politicians see that as a national security threat. a lot of george, i think that because of this government and this government is kind of anti western government and i kind of feel gambling with my shine, puts in. so i mean, rush on influx is definitely a huge threat for that. there are the parliament, the ruling at georgia dream path. it keeps up it's election vouch of having a good relationship with russia and joining the european union. the country wants to become a bridge, if you will, between the european union and russia. the vice chair of the foreign relations committee says strengthening ties with russia is now a big ask. relations are bad tense and so

dangerous for georgia because we don't have diplomatic relations. and russia represents an existential threat to georgia's independence, territorial integrity with the country in the very early stages of his bid. thank you, membership. many feel that this is the time to press a more forceful membership of nato in european union is the most important in order to protect the george and civil and he and territorial integrity and the security. but the problem is that it's because of the war in ukraine. it is unlikely that georgia will get another membership anytime soon. but as far as the new membership, i think georgia has quite good chances, their memories of the 2008 well with russia still fresh head. the graves of dead soldiers are still well tended. the image is coming from ukraine are familiar. and a reminder of the russian georgian wool that is often described as the 1st european

war of the 21st century before the war in ukraine. russia had no problem with the country wanting to join you. but to day, what russia, thanks, or when the e will allow them to join the club is unknown. it seems that george's dream of being a bridge between russia and europe is further away than ever. m. ron con, our desert, tbilisi and official inquiry into how britain is government handle. the corona virus pandemic has begun. retired judge will investigate the you case preparedness for the outbreak. it killed more than 200000 people. charlie angela reports at sir gillis, my dad and thats my eldest sir the last time amanda henry saw her father robert looking well in a care home. the country was locking down against corona virus. they was quiet car . it's a was, you know, always joel can always sing. in 4 weeks later, he was dead with coven 19 as the cause of death. so his ashes sick, his ashes now sit in her living room. she blames the government's decision to

discharge people from hospitals into care homes without testing them for covered 1st. there was so many fairlance. when they're said that priority test in was going to happen, fail to li residents and how that didn't happen. that was not happening. and when they said they were put in this steel ring around one rouble, people in care homes that didn't happen at all, is decisions like this that the coven inquire will examine, starting with how prepared or unprepared the country was for a pandemic. there is one word that sums up the pandemic for so many, and that is the word loss. my principal aim is to produce reports and recommendations before another disaster strikes the 4 nations of the united kingdom . independent of the government. the inquiry will go on to look at the political decisions made during the pandemic,

and the impact on the health care system hearings will begin in spring. and the process is expected to last several years costing upwards of $80000000.00. but as broad as the inquiry is, there are gaps, say experts, the socio economic consequences of locking down the country. the impact on education, business, hospitality, that was simply not discussed in government. you would have thought that the inquiry would be giving a raise a sharp focus to that issue. but there's no indication at all that they're going to look at what didn't happen, which was to get advice from experts about all these, these other issues. 200000 people lost their lives to cove. it here in the u. k. each one represented on this memorial wall. now the inquiry says that those it suffered will be at the heart of this process. and to do that, they're going to listen to the accounts of tens may be hundreds of thousands of people. the aim to discover what could or should have been done to reduce their

suffering. charlie angela out ezra london. at least 15 inmates had been killed during a prison rides in central ecuador, it happened in the city of latter cougar. the state governor says the violence is now under control, and the injured prisoners have been taken to hospital more than 400 inmates were killed in ecuador prisons. in the last year and a half, the president blames the violence on gangs and on the drug trade. us president joe biden, and the 1st lady visited the u. s. territory of puerto rico on monday. biden is promising much needed aid for the island which was hit by hurricane fiona paddy. co hain has the latest the people of puerto rico still hadn't recovered from hurricane maria, which hit 5 years ago now once again dealing with wide ranging damage. us president joe barton and joe biden travelled there monday. he said to send a message, this us territory will not be forgotten. maria congress approved billions of

dollars or puerto rico, much of it not having gotten here. initially. we're going to make sure you get every single dollar promise. and i'm determined our puerto rico bill faster than in the past, and stronger and better prepared for the future. he was referred to former president donald trump, who withheld almost $20000000000.00 with aid meant for the island, and biden said, in addition to emergency aid, he will also be sending an additional $60000000000.00 to help strengthen the infrastructure against future storms. and in the state of florida, the destruction is still coming to light, enlarged parts of the state. everything seems out of place, boats and land cars in water houses simply missing the floors are ruined. the walls are down. the ceilings of all dropped down the water laws above the roof and whole things. this is everything we could sell in our lives. there are new questions about why people in the hardest hit county were not told to evacuate until

a day before the storm hit. local officials or defending their actions, we did what we had to do at the exact same time, i would have changed anything. and i know being in those meetings from the very minute this storm was very unpredictable. searches are still underway with 900100 people rescued so far. but as the death toll reaches 100 officials say that number is likely to rise. patty hall, hain al jazeera australia has announced a plan to ensure no more plants and animals go extinct. the government has now set aside 30 percent of the countries land mass for conservation. australia is home to many unique species including the koala implants of us, but numbers are declining and extreme weather events have pushed some animals to the brink of extinction. is here is nobel prize of physics have been awarded to 3 people, a sped john f klauser, and anton bellenger. they are being recognized for their pioneering work in quantum information science. their research focused on some of the smallest elements of the

universe. now they received a rather big honor to say, the least for reese was at the ceremony and stuck home experts in the field of physics often trying divine who's going to win this prize every year by looking at who's been cited to the most times by that pays who's won some non nobel prize is some sort of so called feed a prizes. we're expecting maybe the theme this year to be light, how light is bent and manipulated to make things invisible or how light is converted into electricity. but the nobel committee have bamboozled de bouquets, yet again in choosing alan aspect, john f. clowes, and anton xhylia for their experiments with entangled photons in the field of quantum mechanics, quantum information, maybe not one for the lay person. but fortunately we have mohammed's boron and hare professor of quantum information on quantum optics at the university of stockholm,

mohammad, you are talking to me about this being a quantum resident revolution. and this can be used in preventing hacking. and that nations are racing to harness this technology. one more, can you tell us about the, the pin you, or can body the laureate up today is simply closing the debate between nibs or, and, and find a book nor description of quantum mechanics. and then today, this opinion experiment have been useful for what is called today. the 2nd quantum revolution that include quantum encryption, quantum computers, quantum imaging, and 2 on quantum sensor. and that's the work. what is to really use for appear in your work. know what is called disgruntled the commodities and how is that being used in the world of hacking and who's trying to really harness this technology? good, the technology use with today for and connection is based in assuming that the quantum

computers are mccorkle or cooper. i'm not the most smart enough to, to break this code, but using no, this was a developer to in quantum technology is used based on a law of nature. no, no of nature not allow you to have a quantum encryption. that's today is not based on assuming something. what are the disposal of monica on from the university of stock? kind of thank you very much. no by week continues chemistry tomorrow. then we got literature, the peace prize and all right. and then back here, you can all makes what might be interesting is to see if any more women are handed out prizes this week. just to give an example for this price, obviously 3 men given the price to day, only for women have been given the physics price since it was begun in 1000. 1, kenya is embarking on an energy revolution. the country is no harvesting geothermal

steam and the great rift valley consultants on the project. se will cut greenhouse gas emissions while also lifting millions of people out of poverty. catherine soil reports from the carry a power plant in nevada, blast of immense heat dot dozens of vents in the great rift valley. the steam is so hot, you can boil an egg in it to appreciate the power of this heat. there is no, we're better to look the north west of kenya's capital nairobi. this energy is coming from the off and it's essentially limitless. anom warranty is exploring for new geothermal drill sites for the countries, electricity generating company. it is producing $962.00 megawatts of power, but could do a great deal more, santi, se harnessing geothermal power for electricity is simple. their steam from the

ground is on a channel of him, a steam lines, and the steam lines and up in up our place. and that steam, of course, it is separated where the liquid face ice, the can inject a back into the ground. and the steam dry. steam is thick into a power plant and runs at out by generating electricity can yet derives most of its energy from clean sources. it has some of the world's largest, your thumb or wealth, and plants. it is also the largest producer of wind and geothermal energy on the continent. i think africa stands out now as a viable option to bring about the change so that africa will make the, the necessary contribution to greeny, the environment. and that's why you find major economies having an interesting, in kenya, specifically and in africa, basically, to hurry vos,

the effects of what is happening elsewhere. you can, francis karaoke was recently connected to the greed through a rural electrification program. so subtle m longer now we have light, we also have fewer cases of test at night. but there are still people in darkness we need to light up the entire village. in most parts, people are now enjoying the benefits of renewable energy. many kenyans are connected to the national green, while others have installed for us system. the government says it wants to ensure every home has electricity in the next 10 years. the idea is, and it's school is not just to live top the country, but the whole continent. catherine saw all the 0, all carrier in the rift valley. yes, still ahead on al jazeera, a rude awakening for the tennis world. number one, that story and more coming up in sport in just

a few moments i do state to ah with me.

oh, oh. oh, the french senator who is on a visit to could tar is refusing to endorse a band back home and showing world cup matches in public spaces. many of frances big cities, including the capital powers, have made the decision to protest conditions of kotor as migrant workers. but senator eli abbey sod said guitar has been very transparent, our position to endorse any decision that's taken locally. and it's not our position to comment on it. what happens locally or concerns as

a national of france for french politics. what concern i was a french litigation here is that during over meetings and whatever we saw and were whatever we were able to hear we. so a great transparency from the officials as well as we were able to see concrete actions that were made recently. and that's what we wanted to put light on and it is time for sport here is farley 0. thank you so much. byron munich, have made it 3 winds from 3 in the champions, a group stage. they've been beaten at victoria piles san at 5 know barth lion inter are in the same group as the german side and will be kicking off against each other . soon. a bars had to italy and great form 9 lea goals from robert lou in dallas gave help them to the top of la leaguer, their 2nd and their champions. a group, however, and haven't won the title since 2015 bill blush. that the for

converts a $57.00 yard touchdown. finished 249. and was the 40 niners. as 7th street, regular season wins over there in saint rivals. and before we go, it's not every day, but a goalkeeper gets on to the score sheets, but in the foot, sol, asian, cough. that's exactly what happened. trans blocker with some quick thinking against indonesia to score from his own penalty area. his efforts helping japan when 32, and advanced the semi finals. okay, and that is all you support for now, cyril back to you. all right bar. thank you very much for all the coverage and that's it. for me, this news, our lauren taylor will be here from our london news center with more of the day's news in just a moment. you weren't great. ah ah

me a multi $1000000000.00 industry. but beyond that lit and glamour of those probably to survive. desperate to fulfill their emissions at because i'm using these photos, the journey to the hive and those only dreams and aspirations that's just not let you meet, you know, body with dreams coming soon on our 0. jumping to the stream when no topic is off the table, i don't think that anybody should be born to privilege to dinner at the dinner day . we are the subjects of the royal family, plus one person's opinion, but what hurt amplify your voice?

the judicial system in mexico is incredibly weak and it is not just corruption where a global audience becomes a global community. those scariest part of this moment in my country is this toys for a more weapons the stream. oh, now j 0 as more people admit to suffering from anxiety and depression to day al jazeera, well, it meets women using art and dance therapy to address that problems. are sensors are the dates to the words. and if we are not training our senses, we lose the words and trust me that go, you can do it until you are 90 or hundreds. the colors of healing on al jazeera. the u. s. is always of impact that people all right, the world people pay attention to walk with on here and i'll just, he was very good at bringing the news to the world from here. ah.
