this is al jazeera ah. hello there. i'm dealing with tom of this is the al jazeera news. our live from london coming up . the worst is yet to come. and for many people, 2023 will feel like a recession. oblique outlook from the i m f, as it cops its global growth forecast for next year. president zalinski urges g 7 lead is to create an air shield for his country. his russian missile strike, ukrainian cities are a 2nd day. after decades of war, israel and lebanon reached a deal to end their maritime board. a dispute paving the way for vital gas exploration. plus, we showed the world that national is serious as a defender of this planet. nasa says the spacecraft is smashed into an asteroid 2

weeks ago, did succeed in knocking it on to a different path. and i'm so to hide us with the latest sport shack, thoughts on, i have 4 view crane and the perfect thoughts of hold israel madrid in the champions league with hello there, very warm welcome to this hour of news, the international manase fun, this painting, oblique picture of the global economy as the war in ukraine. rising prices and interest rates take their toll. but the worse may be yet to come with the 3 largest economies, the u. s. the u and china continuing to stole according to the i m. s. a latest report, global economic growth fell from 6 percent in 2021 to just over 3 percent this year . and it's expected to fall to 2.7 percent next year. china's economy is forecast

to grow just 3.2 percent this year. as a dramatic fall from 8 point one p, then last year, the i m f also slashed its outlook for growth in the u. s. to 1.6 percent this year, down from july forecast of 2.3 percent. the collective economies of the 19 countries that shared the euro currency is expected to go 3 point one percent this year. but by 2023 that slashed to just half a percent will the i m f also raise concerns about inflation with the rates going to 8.8 percent this year. but it is predict to start coming down slowly to about 6.5 percent. next year, allen fisher begins, are coverage from the i m f headquarters in washington. it's a dark time for the global economy. from all over the world. delegates and representatives are in washington to be told what many already know economically,

things are bad and they're going to get worse. the global economy continues to face steep challenges, shaped by 3 powerful forces, the russian invasion of ukraine. the cost of living crisis caused by persistent and broadening inflation pressures. and the slow down in china, inflation is biting economies around the world, making it harder for ordinary people to do ordinary things, like feed their families or warm their homes. the i m f says the reasons are many under complicated, but strict covered locked owns, and china has hit growth there and impacted the global supply chain. there are several climate emergencies under russia's war in ukraine, which has hit food supplies and caused an energy crisis. this winter in europe is described by the i m f is challenging, but warns next winter will be worse when it comes to the cost of living crisis. the way to go is to provide targeted support to the most vulnerable households and

firms. rather than a very general support, which would just make things even more difficult. it's not hard to find economic trouble. sports, lebanon, with political up people into banking sector crisis swirling, co with double digit economic slump and huge debts of pakistan were massive. floods have wreaked havoc. this is the 1st in person gathering for the international monetary fund in 3 years, but facing the biggest coming together of economic security and climate challenges since the 2nd world war. there is an acceptance that this can be business as usual . allen fisher al jazeera at the i m f. annual meeting in washington. william lee is the chief economist at the milken institute, which is an independent economic think tank and joins us live by skype from los angeles at william and a warm welcome to the program. it's been painted as very bleak forecast, so when the i met says, the worst is yet to come, sketch this out for us. the ins is most concerned about the taste with which

central banks around the world are starting to raise interest rates, north fight inflation. one of the consequences of the higher rates is to slow down growth, but also put people out of work. and the p. r for a generation of people who are used to very low unemployment cent, readily available jobs. this is really a change of life that people are not learned to deal with and is cause source of social and political unrest going forward if the severity of the downturn is as severe as the i, as the fed reserve. and you see the are expecting it to be william the focus as very much been on managing inflation. but what options to countries have? well, there is around the world in the united states where most of the deflation is coming because it makes us demand. the federal reserve is doing exactly the right thing to try to cool off demand, so that the available supply incorporated with a lower level of demand in europe. most of the inflation is coming from supply side energy prices and food prices. and there the c. v is having a much tougher job because it can only do so much with trying to supply it can't

get the russians to pop out more guess. so they also have to lower demand to where the available supply is. and in some ways, that's very unfair because the local demand is already relatively low, and the probability of going into recession in europe is absolutely guaranteed. and asia, it's a bit of a mix of both an ice a very much on china, william and it's growth rate. which is obviously declining, just explain to us what the sort of internal picture looks like there. the world had depended on china as a driver, a growth, china was the locomotive that held all economies grow faster because of its role in the global supply chain also is role as a huge source of demand. so right now with the 0 corporate policies and the brokenness of the global supply chains, china itself is starting to go and grow and levels that are below what it's ever experienced before. so 2 percent growth is likely going forward,

and that means that the world has to learn to grow without china. and that's something that it has experience for decades. how much impact william is the war in ukraine having on the, on the global picture? you know, people are so used to food security, supply chain security there. so with generations now, we're used to be able to get stuff when we needed it with the war and ukraine suddenly energy prices are shut off. the food availability, especially in the emerging markets, is gone down to starvation levels and that level of, of food, energy uncertainty. and for the western europe, the likelihood of even further restrictions in the supply of energy and the greater heights. and the price of energy is going to be a real source of political and social unrest. unless the, there is some way of finding substitutes for the russian guess we're in the i m f

and talks about what it called strengthening financial infrastructure and says that something has to be done about risk to the global economy. but walk, can those are what do those statements mean sort of longer term when i used to work on the global finish civil report, we always ward that the global financial infrastructure. the timing of the global financial system wasn't ready for shocks to the financial system. well, the big shot to happen, financial system has been the huge rise of interest rates are caused by the reserve and e c, b. and i think the warning from the r i m f has been whatever was always been that the global financial system has to be ready for all the major set of shots. and there's no evidence right now that the, the repairs to the pony had really been effective over the last several decades. because so little has actually been done. william lee there from the milken institute, williams and keith i saw the launch 0 is volleyball. t bone looks now and how

much power they, i am f itself wields the international monetary fund, an institution that promotes global economic stability, and perhaps a lender of last resort, or a some say, an outdated organization whose policies damage the social and cultural fabric of a country, let's take a closer look. the i m. f was founded in 1944 at bretton woods in the united states . since then, its membership has grown from 44 countries to a 190. the i m f says it monitors economic health of member countries and provides loans for governments in economic distress 2 years ago at the height of the covey. 19 pandemic. more than a 100 nations requested bailouts from the i m f. his i correspondent alan fisher reporting on those loans from his headquarters here in washington. the international monetary fund has put together a 9 trillion dollar port to help countries deal with the covert crisis. most about

money has come from the g. 20 the world richest nations, and more than 100 countries have asked for help. now this is the i mass map of where money was distributed among those helped $2700000000.00 to egypt. 411000000 to ethiopia. 361000000 to bosnia herzegovina. more recently, sri lanka received $2900000000.00 after his economy faced collapse. it ran out of money for food medicine, cooking gas and fuel. but critics of the, i may say it is outdated and ineffective of the 89 developing countries that received i m f. loans between 19651995 more than half where no better off afterwards. in fact, 32 were poor. other critics question whether many nations which borrow money from the i m f. have the ability to repay now yourself additional debt from the i m f

and some sort of longer term ah, where program is likely going to have to step in help countries through that. now the i m f is downgrading is forecast of 2.9 percent global growth in 2023. it says that because of the increasing risk of recession and financial instability, far from being transitory as result, inflation is much more persistent, high energy and foot prices tight, the financial conditions, lingering supply, disruptions, decelerate growth. all of the world's largest economy. economy, sir, now slowing down for better or for worse, many more governments may need to turn to the i m f in the coming months and years . julia is one of the many countries dealing with the fall lab from the war in ukraine and even before russia's invasion. you ends well,

committed war crimes with its sweep of strikes across ukraine on monday, which killed at least 19 people. and injured, more than 100 olives mayor says it'll take months to repair energy facilities damaged by those russian missile attacks and shoes. se, dish no therapist, fancy of missouri full substations within the living regional, out of order. and it will take not days, but months to repair them. this is very complex equipment. we will do everything possible to ensure that medical facilities also work normally considering the realities. we literally have a week or 2 to prepare for the autumn winter eating. caesar of the church, she 7 leaders have condemned russia's recent missile attacks on cities across you carry and are vowing to hold president putin accountable. addressing them by video conference on tuesday, ukrainian president brought him your salon ski pleaded for more hel, including an air shield to protect his country from vladimir putin. yep. who one is

if i thank you for all the already provided it is big, it is significant. but the russian leader was now in the final stage of his reign. so has room to the escalation. this possibility is a threaten to all of us, but we can overcome the threat that we have a formula for pace. and now reacting to russian terror, shame with render and the attempt to an excel territory. we can apply the pace formula so that the terrorist state stands no chance enough. ukrainian capital key was among the cities targeted on monday for the 1st time in months of the strikes continued on tuesday. people were advised to stay in air raid shelter, but while residents of keep on nervous, life has been getting back to normal joy challenge explain gives residents are jumpy. now, the day after the worst russian air strikes since the beginning of the war. many taking the air raid warnings more seriously. last week, most would have ignored the sirens. on tuesday morning,

the metro was filled with people taking shelter. i got scared because we didn't think it will happen again in the downtown. it is terrorism. you understand that you are not safe at home, even if there are no interest jack shall object nearby to us and basement will not say you want to people and key of to. as soon as the all clear is given, easy coffee in the sunshine, anton runs 1900 coffee and central cave for him opening as soon as he can is a duty to his employees, his customers, and his country option which of us a little. why is this important, especially when we are responsible for those work for us in the business must keep working our regular guest keep coming to us even during the last 2 days or daughter of what it also we continue to pay taxes and contribute apart to the countries budget a year, if we all close, it seems to me we will no longer be able to sign on contract and help me to liberate the country. today to show when there's more money for ukraine's

governments getting back to normal, quickly as possible, is a vital part of the war effort. electricity must be restored, glass cleared, and miss al crate is filled. everything that has been destroyed will be rebuilt. president zalinski says, well, look at this intersection where several people were killed on monday. the repair work is already well underway. resilience is defiance and defiance. ukrainians believe will win them the war. rory, talents out as era here was speaking ahead of a meeting of nato defense ministers, secretary general again, stilton burke said the lines will stand with keith for as long as it takes ukraine, has the momentum and continues to make significant gains while russia is increasingly resorting to horrific and in this cabinet attacks on civilians on the critical infrastructure present tootin is

failing in ukraine. his attempted annexations partial mobilization and reckless nuclear rhetoric represents the most significant escalation since the start of the war. and they show that this war is not going as planned. will ukraine is likely to ask nato defense ministers for more help to defend itself from russian miss south particle him has more on what to expect from the pentagon. the last time the nato defense ministers met was in june . now they'll be meeting in brussels beginning on the 12th. interestingly, this is the 1st time the pentagon says that finland and sweden have been formerly invited to attend that. well, there the secretary of defense and the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff will also attend what they call around the pentagon, the ukraine working group. now the secretary of defense lloyd austin, had said that he had hoped to host a meeting like this at least once a month. this will be their 6 so close to that goal. undoubtedly the focus is going

to be on air defense systems for ukraine. that's after those barrage of russia attacks through 2 cities all across ukraine. now the from the u. s. perspective. they say that they've already, i've committed to and it will soon supply ukraine just to of what they call nice. and that stands for nationally bad surface to air missile systems. and they've promised an additional 6, but they say they can't come out of their existing stockpiles. they have to contract them, they have to build them. so that'll take years. so in the past with us, his focus is focused on is going around to the 50 or so countries and asking if they have any systems or defense systems that they could give to ukraine in the exchange. the u. s. occasionally has back filled their system. so they still, those countries still have some sort of air defense systems. now, so far the u. s. has committed $16800000000.00 and military aids. the latest package, a package was 625000000. now from the u. s. perspective and here at the pentagon, they say what they're doing is try to strike a balance while helping ukraine will not provoking russian president vladimir putin

for himself. joe biden, president joe biden recently said, sent this warning, saying the u. s. was closer to nuclear armageddon than it has been in decades. so the focus at this meeting at the, at the nato meeting and at the ukraine working group is how to help ukraine when this war, without provoking latimer putin into the use of nuclear weapons. just foreign minister, sarah gala from says moscow is open to talk with the west on the ukraine war, but there's been no serious proposals to negotiate in an interview on state tv. labrat said russia was willing to engage with the united states with turkey, always to end the conflict. he also indicated that russia would not turn down a meeting between presidents, flooded mir person and job by then. it comes the head of excellence g 20 summit on the indonesian island of bali to lead us held their last face to face meeting at a summit in geneva. last year. russian president vladimir putin, his health, also the head of the u. n. nuclear agency, though in st. petersburg i. e,

a chief rafael grossi was there to discuss the situation around ukraine's for region nuclear power plant, which has repeatedly come on the shelling bit and told him he was open to dialogue on the plan, which is currently in russian control territory in southern ukraine. and he acknowledged the power plant is of concern. energy ministers are meeting in prague to find ways to tackle sky hi gas prices. 15 members of the european union was the price paid for buying wholesale gas to be kept across the blog. they don't want richer countries in europe to be able to buy gas at higher prices. well, the signatories argue the cap would help car prices before expensive gas supplies into the market, which power plants and then drive up electricity bills. the price cap proposal is based on $3.00 ideas, setting a limit on the cost of russian gas import negotiating a lower gas price with other suppliers and establishing a ceiling of the price of gas used to generate electricity. but some

e. u. member states disagree with the price cap plan pushing for alternative options, including element on gas consumption and subsidy packages for businesses and consumers. steadfast and reports now from prox him, novak of, i could not believe her energy bill is from 160 dollars one month. it went up to $700.00. the next she managed to change provider, but still has to pay nearly half her salary to the power company at the just my school. so i will try to go to the welfare office and see if i can get some housing allowance. maybe they can help me out. we have to pay phone bills and food is so expensive to. this is all taken me by surprise. i don't know what to do on it, but i with temperature dropping and is growing. check, trade unions won't lead us to find solutions. i think the leader of europe must

looking for some come on approaches because it's for us i'm accepted to have to europe, ian union. my a one for the wars countries for region countries. i think that if we want to have future for european union, you must looking for some come on the approach for all but agreement as you have to be reach on how to reduce the price of gas at last week's use, some in brock, the 27 lead us, we maint divided one of the matches to you managed to agree on is to cut energy consumption by 15 percent. like other european cities. brock has decided to stop illuminating some of its famous monuments. but everyone agrees more far reaching measures are needed. and especially in the east and the south of europe, there's a real push for a price cap on gas. the countries are discussing the forms of price cap, could take some want a maximum price to be set for all gas. but a compromise could be in the works we how to remove, ah dogma impacts both the garzo malik tricity prizes result. and this is

extremely important. pushing up the consumption. al. so we have to find a solution which is basically which works, which will the solution to that be to be process. but on the other side, we stick to the commitment, we have to reduce the cost consumption. because in the case of seo, inter derek, that there can be your lack of gas, whatever the answers, the e you comes up with. all katerina novak of our ones is lower power bills as soon as possible, steadfast on al jazeera proc. the french government says it's prepared to break oil refinery blockades as petrol strikes continued a 3rd of the countries fuel stations are running short because of industrial action at refineries and storage sites. trade unions are demanding a 10 percent pay increase from the energy giant total energy and other oil made just strike action has entered his 3rd week and wage talks of stalled. when 60 percent of francis refining capacity has been taken offline. as lots more still to

not too far away, so that's keeping things reasonably settled. but we have got weather systems just waiting to roll in from the atlantic, bringing some wet and windy weather into many parts as we go on through the next couple of days. so that rain will make its way across all. and northern ireland, western parts of england, well see some heavy rain as we go through where to stay. follow that line of wet weather all the way up into that western side of norway. dry weather into central parts of europe, scattering a showers down towards he up some wet weather now started to push his way away from the valley. eric's towards the southern part sat just easing across towards motor towards their sardinia and corsica. easing over towards italy. somewhere to whether they're just around the balkans prepping up as we go on through thursday and further see whether streaming in from the atlantic cross to press punishment or passive front seeing some heavy rain where to weather there to, into the northwest. but somewhat try and brighter, down towards the southeast corner. ah,

you lou ah ah, a quick reminder of our current top story. see on al jazeera, the international mother. she funds as global economic growth fell from 6 percent in 2020 want to just over 3 percent this year. and it predicts oblique picture for the coming year as the war and ukraine inflation. a rising interest rates all take their toll. rashaw continued to launch a barge of missiles strikes and several regions of ukraine, including the city of zack parisha, ukrainian officials say at least one person was killed. energy facilities were hitting, the viv causing widespread power blackouts. and ukraine's president has urged g 7

leaders for more help, including an air shield to protect his country. the good vowed to hold president putin to a camp for the recent russian missile attacks. u. s. president says he is re evaluating his country's relationship with saudi arabia. after the old peck, clos group, which it leads decided to stick because production you, organization of all producing countries announced his decision last week despite us opposition. the white house as president joe biden, is willing to work with congress after a senate called for a freeze on cooperation with saudi arabia. the president has been very clear that united states need to need a different sort of relationship with saudi arabia. he has said that from very early on, we are reviewing where we are currently right now, and will be watching closely over the coming weeks and months as well. consulting with our allies and also with our, with members of congress and decisions will be made. once that,

once that the ones that policy review is underway, we believe by, by the decision that opec plus made last week, there certainly are aligning themselves with russia. russia, the president has praised the decision by opec plus to sharply cut back on oil production. got him put him with speaking at a meeting with the leader of the united arab emirates. we are actively working in the framework. we close our decisions. our action aren't directed against anyone. we are and acting to create problems for anyone. our actions are aimed to ensure to built in global energy market. israel and lebanon have reached a historic agreement to resolve a long running maritime board to dispute following months of negotiations. it's yet to be formally ratified the both sides have expressed their satisfaction with the terms of the deal. the development of the carriage field was re tensions between israel and lebanon. but the breakthrough will enable both countries to develop the

off shore gas built in their waters. the agreement also resolves a territorial dispute in an area where lebanon aims to explore for natural gas. near walks is where israel as a where the found gas deposits 11. and how's it managed to begin production yet? but if exploration results in a substantial gas discovery, the revenue could help improve the country. dire financial situation could also be vital for europe at a time when it's desperately seeking new sources. bernard smith has more from west jerusalem. israel government says this is an historic deal with 11 on. it says it will strengthen israel security people, billions of dollars into israel economy and ensure the stability of israel's border with lebanon. engineers are already testing the pipe that will eventually extract the gas from its kurdish oil field to israel, the mainland. and i hope that in about 3 weeks time, once those tests are completed, that come begin to pump gas. the deal have to go before israel security cabinet.

it'll meet on wednesday, and then there are a couple of potential legal and parliamentary hurdles to jump once they've been cleared. and i hope to be able to sign the deal with the lebanese for elections here in israel on november. the 1st, whether they managed to be that deadline or not, it's still a significant diplomatic victory for israel's prime minister jala pete. he is signing a deal with what is still considered an enemy country. the 1st time that israel signed any sort of agreement with lebanon, and he'll be hoping to exploit that in the run up to the elections. it also for israel significant, unimportant that lab on able is able to start exploiting or looking for its own gas and oil reserves in its own territorial waters. because potentially, if i find anything, then that will reduce lebanon's reliance on iran for a few us president joe biden has told us lebanese can't, upon, he hopes the agreement will mark you chapter for the lebanese people think harder

and they were more on the deal. lebanon's president michelle ounce, as the draft of the u. s. mediator deal on a maritime border with israel is satisfactory and that lebanon's demands have been met some officials or even calling it a historic agreement. and that the most powerful political and military actor in this country has milan, is behind the deal. because the secretary general of the group has repeatedly said that it will support the position of leopard on top leadership. now, no doubt this deal will bring economic benefits to a country in financial ruin. if this country is in dire need of hard currency, international companies will now begin the drilling and exploration process in the past. they refused to do so without security guarantees, without the maritime borders deal really in place. this morning, a delegation from the french energy giant throttle. they were in beirut that they met the caretaker, prime minister. and as you may 80, and they're expected to begin work as soon as this deal is signed,

but israel get security guarantees. lebanon has economic benefits, but there's also a 3rd party here. and that is, europe. europe is in desperate need for gas. after losing supplies from russia over the war in ukraine, no doubt gas from israel is not going to fill the gap, but it will help help with europe's energy crisis. and it's really one of the reasons why it is, believe the united states was really pushing for this major diplomatic breakthrough students continue to protest in iran almost a month after the death of a woman in police custody. ah, demons street is an a tyrann university gathered together to form the word blood in farsi rights groups and protests have been uploading video on social media despite and please crack down the unrest. march. the biggest challenge to runs government in years, protests, se 22 year old master and me now was beaten to death by morality. please for

violating dress cold laws. last month. nasa says it successfully deflected the path of an asteroid in the test. the could one day save the planet. the u. s. space agency says is the 1st time humans have altered the orbit of a celestial body. the darned spacecraft deliberately crashed into the space rock known as di morphis last month and telescope observation show it shifted the course of the 160 meter asteroid. we conducted humanities 1st planetary defense test. and we showed the world that nasa is serious as a. ringback defender of this planet. and we captured the attention of millions of people around the world in this test. and that's because dart, as we call it, it felt like a movie plot. but this was not hollywood or thomas s.

statler is a dark program scientist at nasa's planetary science division. he joins us live from washington, dc. thomas a very warm welcome to the program. i know it's been cold, a cosmic face punch. tell us why the result of this re direction test far exceeded initial expectations. well, the results of the test really were in accord with what we're expecting. what we're doing is beginning to develop a technology that could one day be used to deflect an asteroid. if we ever need to . in this 1st test, we didn't know what the structural properties were of the asteroid that we were targeting dimorphic. it might have been a solid rock. it might have been a fractured rock. it might have been a pile of debris. and so we had a wide range of expectations for what might happen. what did happen is we got a, a big splash of what we call ejector. that gave

a good push to the asteroid. it was at the upper end of what we were expecting, what we were hoping for. but this result is absolutely fantastic because it does give us confidence that this technique could be useful in the future if we ever need it. m thomas, what was it like said to plan this experiment and see it happen with your own eyes? what did that feel like? well, the planning was, it took years and many, many people involved the, the, the planning of this mission goes back even beyond my association with nasa. it was started by, by other people by a dr. andy chang at w, applied physics, laboratory and others. and i and the planning to make it happen. the engineering that was necessary to build the spacecraft, to steer itself into the asteroid. and the planning that's been done by the team of scientists to interpret the data that's coming in now and really measure everything there is to measure about that asterix. it's been absolutely thrilling. it's been a, you know, a career culminating moment, i think probably for me and for

a lot of people on the team. thrilling is definitely the words m thomas, this, this kinetic impact to strategy as it's called. is it, is it scalable? could it, could it be used against, much larger and space walks in the future potentially. in principle, it shall be. what you've hit on an important point is how, how much is it scalable? and that's something that we're also working on. we've got a good understanding of the physics of how an impact or works and an ability to compute and predict how an impact on a larger asteroid should happen. what we've done with the dart experiment is established one definite ground truth one anchor point for those situations. busy to verify that we've got our heads on correctly when we simulate these things. and then we can learn to extend it different to a different asteroid in a different case. but if we do ever have to deploy an asteroid deflection, we're gonna have to really carefully at that exact situation that exact astrid,

how much information we can get about that asteroid and whoa, what would be the best technique? maybe it's a single impact, or maybe it's a string of multiple impactors stretched out over time. but the most important thing always is to find the dangerous asteroids early. so we have time to, to act if we need to either any of these staten sites at this point to, to the dot strategy downsides, the dart strategy. but we've had a tremendously successful experiment. we succeeded in hitting the asteroid. and we've succeeded in demonstrating that that impact actually did move the asteroid, changed its motion in a way that is in accord with what, what we were expecting for an asteroid of that, of that type. so in that respect, it's all, it's all good news. anything that we've given that we hit the asteroid any result would have been an important lesson to learn if it works as it has then great. if

we had learned that it didn't work, that also would have been an important lesson to learn because our goal is to be able to defend our planet against this natural hazard of asteroid impacts. if the 1st thing we try works, wonderful. if the 1st thing we try hadn't worked, that's also very important. so i don't see a downside right now. we've got the very, very beginnings of a tool. we are not now. busy totally safe from asteroids. we've got one tool, one test that can be developed in the future. but of course the most important thing to develop in the future is our ability to find asteroids because you have to find them before you do anything about thomas s. statler their program scientist at nasa's planetary science division. thomas, thank you so much. thank you so much to pam has re opened his board as to to assess the 2 and a half years of coven 19 restrictions. travelers from 68 countries and territories can again visit with our visas, but they are required to show proof of

a vaccination or negative cova test. the government's been under pressure from businesses to allow tourism faddie sentiment has the reaction from tokyo. most of the people in japan, it is not only the tourism in buses, but also local governments. they have been very, very eager to see their government lifting the border control, maybe one of the victim among 7 countries and also in the world. many people now lot of faith with all the numbers of tourism, maybe call it the cases will rise again. this is why the government and also other agencies and the institutions are going to keep very close to the numbers off of it . in fiction, those who is now expect asians for this inbound number of students, japan has reached almost 32000000 students during the peak season in to 1019. and

that's the virtual it came to almost 0 during covet. now, they have picked up to almost $120000.00 visitors a footing visit visit as a month, but they are expecting now this numbers to double and triple within the coming weeks, especially that not many of the japan airports still accepting international flights families in thailand, have been holding their final prayers for those killed and last week's attack, which began in a nursery. the rampage in the new klein province was one of the worst mass killings in the country's history. a former police officer shot and stab 36 people, including 24 young children, and their carriers choose the ceremony and the cremation of 19 of the victims, and 3 days of morning. who don't go home row yet, gasoline hung, our intention is to send the children in the teacher off to heaven. the teacher will take the lead and the 18 children follow her steps to heaven according to our

police, the desires of their parents. and every one had to send them off to london to haiti now, where the death toll from cholera has risen to 1632 cases have been confirmed with more than 200 suspected cases from last week alone. health experts, a warrant of a devastating resurgence of the water born disease. the rise in cases comes with thousands of people protested in capital poor to prance against the government called for foreign security assistance to confront gangs who are blocking efforts to control the cholera. i break demonstrates as a foreign intervention has never worked and their calling on the prime minister to resign. the u. s. is reviewing the requests, saying the situation has grown even more dire and status quo cannot persist. family and friends of the south african park ranger shot dead earlier this year. demanding justice. anton miss bye was known as a wild life warrior according to the game ranger. so station of africa, he was one of more than 100 wardens kill while patrolling for poachers. in the last

year from hold to put in northern south africa, emily angered reports, south african conservation is said they waging a war against poachers. and ant on remember was one of the many park ranges on the front line. he dedicated his career to protecting wild life. it's very painful to see how well people are. it was ant on success, his head ranger, timber body, private nature reserved for more than 2 decades. that cost him his life. for months and years, anton had been target said receiving death threats, his family was restrict receiving threats. his team was receiving threats. he was under a huge amount of pressure. mat linden berg was making a documentary about anton titled reino man. back in july, before it was released, his friend was fatally shot. 3 men approached antwan's home under the guise of needing water for their vehicle. they took weapons out of unload it on him. and in

the process, it injured his wife, and also i think the most devastating fingers to show how violent this this war and poaching as, as they took shots at his children, anton leaves behind 7 children. his wife survived the attack. as for the blad, a saw he was thought, i saw the key it was just, it was just difficult. it was too much. antwan's cousin laid him cabella is also a park ranger with the all female group, the black members. she knows every time she puts on her boots, she's walking into danger. it's not easy to wake up every day. go out on patrol. i'm doing this for him. i'm doing this for his legacy. the numbers of rhinos in kroger, national park have declined so much that poachers are now turning their attention to private reserves and is up to those land owners to foot the bill for extra security measures. to protect these animals,

the same animals the government promotes as one of its greatest tourist attractions . reserve owner derek levitan, supplies his ranges with body armor and night vision goggles ordered to help keep them safe. what the syndicates will do to families to get their hands on horn is frightening. copy that he's also applied for a gun license. the teams had come poach. they'll bring one gun for the rhinos. they'll bring 2 guns for us. it is very risky. no arrests have been made in connection with anton's murder, as well as wild life. anton also had a passion for teaching young people about conservation. you said, you know, if i, if i were children, if my children don't see the value, the beauty of i don't even have empathy, compassion, understanding for wild life. how can i expect them to protect that wild life? how to world mass is helping to continue antwan's legacy. and while the films ending has changed, it's message has not emily anglin al jazeera,

who'd sprayed south africa. still ahead this news, our remembering iconic film, theater, and t. v. cy angela lansbury has died at the age of 96. meeting the spanish football fan, his walking to the our world car. sarah has the story in sport. ah, ah, ah, ah ah

ah ah oh, lou ah, that here sorry with all the day sports news. thanks very much. well, the perfect stop by hold israel madrid and the champions lee has been brought soon

and by shot notes, the train in 5 paying them in poland because the russian invasions surprised me on the calls and they always pulled off the surprises when bonds saved into injury time and tanya, rudy gaz grave had a rescue to 11 rule free all to keep them on beats and in the group stages. now, manchester says he also dropped their 1st points against copenhagen to see how to go. this allowed unary argument has penalty saved and things got was when did you review and did with gomez given a straight red card for a file close to the edge of the area, there was still an hour to play in the match at that point, but city held on for golden rule. now chelsea have gone top of that group off to winning to know an ac milan high inside was struggling by going down to 10 men early in the game. and chelsea took advantage with a penalty from georgina and a 2nd from strike. and rake of my young this when followed up a 3 no victory for chelsea in their best picture last week. paris sandra joe man

remains held for the group, but were held home by benefee her despite going in front through killing him about penalty. bonnet finished 11. thanks to another kick. this time from joe mario in the 2nd half on my car. we have for one, they're 1st come to the home in 20 years as a port more misery on struggling events on that really was. a goals and a to know victory. now that's another big sent back free event. this type stuff on making the no count stages now fif offset to decide on wednesday. if the one love on bands can be worn out. the walls cuff england hurricane is one of the 10 captains by community which supports the l g b. c, q. community fee for has traditionally been opposed to political protests or even slogans during games or in stadiums. we decided that we weren't aware and that's

kind of our thought process going forward. yeah, we'll be down to fi for and i'm so the essay to be in contact with them. i haven't heard anything personally yet. so at the moment, one lines where it so if anything changes, we'll cross that bridge when it comes. now right now, teams are taking part in a straight child well comp here in kata, it's haldeman has been held ahead of each v for wild card since 2010 and aids to help vulnerable young people around the globe. out as there is, alessandra amputee caught up with columbia's team their last training session just before fines katha. these girls say growing up, wanting to play football ingram total was rough voice, chided them off in letting them on the dusty pitches of this down. deep in the jungles of western columbia and played by drug trafficking armed groups, any legal gold mining. but with the help of that foundation, they built

a team and got a field and have been chosen to participate in katara st. trial at world cup in our project. in our border, 17 years old fiorella, and minor of columbia female football star, linda said the imperial fender means killian's him, but they can hardly contain their emotions what it feels incredible. and 1st of all, i want to thank god for this opportunity to represent our country butter. father says the girls have mostly themselves to tank their level of dedication and sacrifice spread to their relatives in the family to obtain a mental land. although i often used to go out and party, but i haven't and used to help her with what she needs. boots towed at trees, trip, which means i need to have money available to help her. or i'm on model quality of the goal. foundation says their goal was to offer them the possibility to overcome their difficult context is not a hail and like a lesson plan. it is

a region that offers very little opportunities to women. one were violence and zoner abilities are the rule of the game. so that your organization is, is football to offer them life oppertunity, change the way they make their life decision to take them away from the risks when they face every day. i stare skills in the pitch. the girls are also excited to bring their traditional dances and culture to 16 year old katalina says her passion has changed. her life must gather for them. i say no more than anything. football to me, the value of working as a team, the responsibilities the puncture it's. it's hard because we're training in the morning. we go to school, back to training, but it's worth it for all you put in it is. and if someone wants something and you will have to fight for it. and while people are putting right now, i will go to the peach again. i didn't cation that offers them the chance to leave the country for the 1st time and to participate in

a competition. they feel they have already won whatever the results in the field. i listen that and i just come down to columbia. now a spanish football fan into the last weeks of his journey walk into the castle walls cup from madrid. santiago sanchez is now in iraq. also setting off 10 months ago. he walks between 15 and 30 kilometers a day with a trailer attached to his waist, containing all his belongings and food. sanchez says he's been made welcome throughout his journey. and i love you guys are the viola part of the, you know, the cities i've had the chance to share my experiences with local families, piece of the mas sweetest moment. there are a lot of people have open door to their homes. people that don't know you, people that see your effort and desire to do better. the idea of this journey is to motivate, inspire other people, to show them that you can go very far with very little. let me show up here. i have

my home and what have everything that i need for a year or 2. and that's the purpose of the tree. to show that you can do a lot with very little eric k, the former communications direct. so for major league baseball team, the families angels has been sentenced to 20 years in prison. it follows isn't conviction in february for providing the drugs that cause the death of the teens picture. pilot skaggs in 2019 skies and founded in the texas hotel room before a game k intense appeal. his conviction. well that's all you support from the back . so dunden. sorry, thank you. now angela lansbury, the iconic actress whose career spend almost a decade has died at the age of 90. 6. lansbury was best known for paying jessica fletcher in the tv series murder, she wrote. she appeared in numerous films including the manchurian candidate and bed knobs and broomsticks. and she'd be nominated for 3 oscars. lansbury was
