a russian air strike. it's a building in the ukranian city of zachary's yard, killing at least 14 people. ah, hello, i'm emily anguish. this is al jazeera alive from jo. how's it coming up? russian president vladimir putin blames ukraine for an explosion on the main bridge to crimea, calling it a terrorist attack. north korea vows to strengthen its nuclear program and rejects further dialogue with those it coals, its enemies and protests in sri lanka, denouncing the government crackdown and demanding the release of demonstrations. ah,

welcome to the program. we begin in ukraine where an apartment block and other residential buildings have been heat in rushing me solid tags. it happened in the south eastern city zappa ratio. at least 14 have been killed and dozens wounded. rescue workers have been digging through a rebel fearing people are trapped. the city is under ukrainian control, but it's part of a region. russia says it annexed last month. ukraine presidents, a lot of the landscape, has called the shelling. merciless worry, challenge has more on the damage. zapper is yeah, the city has experience nights after night of this, the civilians there have been repeatedly pounded by russian missile. an air strikes, attacks, often hitting apartment, buildings and homes. it's indiscriminate that best. it's a intentional. at worst, i think you crazy and certainly feel that it is intentional. that's why they describe russia as

a terrorist state. the latest round of air strikes were told by craner authorities 12 miss alice laurence from russian plains last night. at least one apartment building hit 5 homes destroyed. now, what happens possibly to trigger this will. of course, there was the attack on the crime in bridge which ukraine and the moment is not expressed explicitly saying it was responsible for. but there are more hints, more in situation from leaders nor thirties. the fronts in the east and the south are not moving at the moment as fast as they have been in recent days. the ukrainian advance pause or slow down, but fighting does go on for letting me put in is called the blast on the bridge connecting crimea to russia. a terrorist act prudent is blame g reins special services. the coach bridge supplies moscow's troops in southern ukraine and is seen

as a symbol of russian power in the region. ukraine has not claimed responsibility. some new, there is no doubt. this is an act of terrorism aimed at destroying russia's critical civilian infrastructure. its authors, perpetrators and beneficiaries other security services of ukraine. north korea, as late as says, he'll continue to strengthen his nuclear operations. kim jong own has all the st exercises involving ballistic missiles, with mock and nuclear warheads. in the past 2 weeks, rob mcbride has moved from san the north koreans have said very little about the flurry of miss ballistic missile activity that's going on pretty much on, unchecked for 2 weeks continually launching of these missiles. the last week of september, the 1st week of october, and then today, monday, the official north korean news agency comes out with almost a pronouncement long declaration of exactly what it's been doing. the dates of the

tests, the types of missiles being launched and tested with photographs showing kim jung on the low north korean leader overseeing all of these tests. and basically the headline to come away from this is that the north korean say the goal that they have been doing is carrying out what they called tactical nuclear drills. this is the supposed development of a smaller tactical nuclear devices. now, these are the, the kinds of miniaturized nuclear warheads that you would put onto a rocket or a short range ballistic missile. it does require an awful lot of a technical advancement of technology and technological know how in order to do this, and it's unclear just how advance the north koreans are in developing tactical nuclear warheads. but certainly, they are working on the delivery systems for these types of warheads. and they've also, as well as carrying out a shorter range, ballistic missiles,

probably the most serious development of the past couple of weeks with last last week on october, the 4th they launched an intermediate range ballistic missile right over the top of japan that landed in the pacific ocean that caused obvious alarm from all of that. north korea is neighbors. it's the 1st time they've carried out such a loads like that in 5 years. and at the north korean say that that is a new type of missile. they also say that they have been practicing and developing the technology to have to have explosions in the air above the ground. now that's the kind of delivery that you would use if you were launching a nuclear device. police in sure lanka has been accused of mistreating, peaceful protest is at least 6 people were arrested in the latest demonstrations. violence erupted after demonstrators were told they couldn't assemble on a public, prominent nelson and its reports from columbia. protested here on this very public

promenade called the gold fish in colombo. have been told that they can't demonstrate are due to us number of bureaucratic measures as a result in a, in a sort of a sand of an argument with a police officers. we've seen that some of the policemen have been told to kit up. they've got, they got gas masks on, they've obviously got their batons at the ready. this is the crowd of protest. ers essentially who have got together. they've come together basically to mark a number of months of protest and also demanding an end to the government, a repression, as they call it. they say that the government is on a major which hand to crack down on protesters who are behind the anti government protests that lead to the change of government and leadership are. and they said that this is a purely public place that they have the right to do so. now, one of the things that they have talked about and expressed concern about is

a bill of creating a bureau of rehabilitation. and what this means, because it essentially allows for the use of what it is called minimum force against those that are brought in for rehabilitation. anyone and everyone can be taken under custody of the government, can be sub, legally subjected of torture, can be legally forced fed bid drugs are prevented from if they tried. do i leave the st. dad there? it's term that this camp and then it can be forcibly brought backing to the center . and obedience is, is forced under be by any means including himself. mm hm. and course, the anger, the frustration at the mismanagement of the government that has brought an otherwise a prosperous and an essentially a country with so much potential to its knees hasn't died down. and people are speaking out. and he government protests continue across iran despite a violent crack down by security forces on

at least 185 people have been killed during the unrest, according to the no way based around human rights group. the protest is spreading to schools and universities demanding a regime change. the unrest was ignited after 22 year old massa, and many died in police custody last month. she'd been arrested for violating address code. treated patsy is with the quincy institute in virginia. he won the government crackdown unprotected could get what i think the number of desk showed themselves that this is the rather brutal crack down. it should not have been any that whatsoever. mindful of the fact that these coaches have overwhelmingly been peaceful. but i think it's also correct to say that the full school of the town that the, that the government can show as not you can see, i suspect that the government suspected themselves that if they didn't go out too

hard, in their view, the focus would slow down and die down and we have now seen that that is absolutely not the case. the anger is a mess and there's not been any concessions by the government. yes. so the idea that these would die down seems to be a clear miscalculation, but then they also been mean that they may change your taxes and actually go to much more bitterly than they have done so far. signals coming from says, speeches that government officials have made seems to indicate that shifts in toxic can be taking place within the next week or 2, if not even sooner. and again, we have seen when the government has gone out, and for instance, there were hundreds if not thousands of children 2019. so there's unfortunately a high risk for a while, more bloodshed than we have seen so far. the head of the roman catholic church says the treatment of migrants is criminal and sinful. pope francis was speaking out as

all, or we are forced to buy it at high prices. with no permanent rivers in libya. 97 percent of its population relies on water from hundreds of meters under ground through what's known as the great man made river. it's one of the largest irrigation projects in the world and cost billions of dollars that has been neglected since formerly, de mama duffy was killed in 2011 and the others can come off. there are 19 wells that need immediate service if maintained these wells, together with the water from the manmade river, means we'll be able to meet the entire district needs. the united nations met officials from water authorities in july to address how to renovate the network of wells and water pipelines across libya until progress is made. those in the most arid areas will continue searching for their own water sources. so height al jazeera, a landslide in venezuela, has killed at least 22 people and more than 15,

a big project in mexico. that is cool. that in my trim i as a key project to president and as manuel lopez over the door a right way to connect result, towns like can coon and to loom with attractions immaterial of the countries you could time peninsula. it's meant to run in a 1500 kilometer loop, but the most controversial line is here. the 68 kilometers of track on the car being coast originally was meant to run along this road. but hoteliers complained and the government changed its plans. instead, the train would hack through one of the continents largest jungles. not one single tree will foe. that's what the president said. look that, but it's not just above the so that could be affected by the tray. this is the delicate cape system beneath a subterranean land, water filled sink holes and underground rivers. what is the risk for these caves in

this cave system of the trend might collapse collapse. there are hundreds, maybe thousands of caves in this, in this part of the trim this case systems on the ground reverse in this area arctic core of life here. the jungle above us lives, thanks to the water to float in this river. in a cru environmentalist secured an injunction against the section of railway between concurrent and saloon, citing environmental concerns, government carried on construction by using a national security decree. in late september, the judge, you granted the injunction rescinded his decision. as for the deforestation, the government says it will be mitigated by tree planted just elsewhere. in the back to the impact of track 5 is approximately 400 hector's were reforest thing, 400000 hector's 500000000 trees are being planted in the south west of mexico many more than are being impacted. but what about the people who live in the you company,

and what did they think of the train? the bus is that the os family have a small shop in one of the precarious informal settlements along the coast. when, if you tell me which this will benefit us because it will bring work for the young . i think with the maya there will be more need for hotel staff and for the young people who want to grow. i think the government for thinking of that but there were already lots of hotels and jobs in this area. the problem is most pay very low wages. people still live in poverty. the question is, will the government trained pay better? and will it be worth the environmental cost? john homan, al jazeera rivera maya, a football tournament highlighting the plight of more than 100000000 children living in poverty is taking place in kata a month ahead of the world. come. i room tasa met the girls team representing zimbabwe at the straight child world cup for 14 year old zondaway de santos. these weekly training sessions on to some are playing football. it helps take mind

off her troubles growing up in an informal settlement in some ball way as tough. some areas of no running water or electricity. crime is rife. after practice, zondaway tells her mother being part of a football team is helping build her confidence in a safe environment. so yeah, so whenever i'm playing, i see my teammates are confident i tell myself, i can also be that confident. so i work hard to improve myself, coaches had become a role models with the coaches, actually sending that role from even the sports room to your site with them in the home sitting up, you could have done the homework, checking up whether they've gone to school or not so now because of all of the coach was a volunteer by the way, was trying to also change somebody's life is one of those coaches is mercy. won't be in a, she's not playing when she was 18 years old. now in her twenties,

she's teaching young players quality. she learned when growing up is us after seizure. we teach them to respect their parents. the change in some of the players is remarkable. their parents say before they started playing football, they were disrespectful. now they do their chores at home and focus on school record high inflation means jobs are scarce in zimbabwe, a lot of families are struggling. the united nations is 62 percent of the population in zimbabwe is aisd below $25.00. many young people live in poor communities where there are few opportunities with some football helps keep them out of trouble and away from being tempted by alcohol and drugs. football is helping these youngsters develop and teaching them that even when the going gets tough. hard work, determination and teamwork can help them when on the field and in life. yeah. how to matessa out, is it helen historians and can't i say they're the intervened to stop the sale of

nearly a dozen manuscripts stolen from afghanistan. the items were being sold in prestigious auction houses. now a group of experts is working with interpol and the world customs organization to preserve afghanistan's heritage and history. as some have been job aid has moved a centuries old koran from central asia. still in pristine condition. 700 volumes of chronic manuscript from china and southeast asia, the collection of others, national library. one of the largest of its kind is any behind the books, the headquarters of a project to track stolen artifacts. so him are we launched that project? her in 2020 whizzer dapper and the world custom organization and the international federation of libraries to insist on the fact that her manuscripts are also suffering from trafficking. and it is, it is a disaster. so everybody speaks always about archaeology,

but we forget the manuscript, stefan and his colleagues recently discovered people allegedly linked to the former government who were trying to sell an ancient koran for more than $1000000.00. i immediately contacted the interval and asked to act, so it was not so easy because actually the, the 5th was never declared to the police in capital. so officially that could not of action. then it's more complicated because the, when institution is more difficult because of the political situation in afghanistan and it's not related cases, visio, we find our lead between 5 and 10, many states and sailor invited countries. members of the taliban guard of understands national museum. these days protecting what's left of the collections. some historical fights have withstood years of different powers fighting for control of gun son. but the offer are arch victory, and parkman is more than a 100 years old. after years of wars and conflict, much of abundance done,

historic heritage has been destroyed. and the last time they were in power, the taliban said they would protect and preserve what belongs to all us on a stark contrast to the groups destruction of buddhist heritage. when it came to power in the 1990s, miriam, o z m 1000000 gallery, we are protecting the national archive, museum gallery library and other important places. the story clocked facts of afghan. stan should be preserved. customs agency or station at the airports, and we managed to intercept a lot of artifacts that were being smuggled and they were taken to the museum kasey, but returning stolen antiquities isn't that simple with them? countries not have diplomacy, collision with that. can you stand today? so they don't want to read you something and they'll talk of night the current government so that they use that as an excuse very often. no. so it's difficult to find the lead me to know.
