just a red cross snake from a regional hub and you've been in production living center produces enough and you've been to most of southeast asia. there are some parts of the world where supplies desperately shield. let us make a trip with challenge back from vacation and cultural tradition. hollywood thing on a resume presidential election is going to a 2nd round on october 30th, incumbent hard line president. jade, also, nato and former socialist president at the cba are buying for votes, which one is just to re elect to brazil's highest office ongoing special coverage

on al jazeera. ah, the un general assembly votes to condemn russia's annexation of 4 ukrainian regions . ah, i money in sight, this is out there, life from day halls there, coming up a u. s. conspiracy theorist is ordered to pay almost a $1000000000.00 to families of victims and a mass shooting from branding it a hoax. on the face of close up shooting of an innocent black man by london's metropolitan police means a new low in confidence. and i knew was that from sweden that could help vomas' world wide protect that cross climate change.

the un general assembly has voted overwhelmingly to condemn russia's moved to annex parts of ukraine. 143 countries voted in favor of the resolution that reaffirms ukraine. sovereignty and territorial integrity and the full countries joined. russia voting against it, thighs with syria, nicaragua, north korea. and but aris fancy 5 countries abstained. those included rushes, strategic partner china, kristen salome has moved from the u. n in york. well, this is the 4th vote in the general assembly since russia invaded ukraine on the situation in ukraine in this one past, with the most support of any of the prior resolutions. it's an attempt by ukraine and it's backers to keep russia under pressure. keep the spotlight on the country and show that it's isolated on the international stage. there were some abstentions

35 of them. that's similar to the right previous votes. among the abstentions 2 very large and influential countries, china and india. china said that the resolution reflected a cold war mentality and in their view, was not conducive to bring the parties together for peace talks. but the united states and other countries that back ukraine said that quite simply, this is a matter of preserving international law. and the un charter arm message is loud and clear. it does not matter if you as a nation or big or small rich or poor, old or new. if you are a you and member state your borders are your own and are protected by international law. they cannot be redrawn by any one else by force. well, this is certainly a morally significant victory for ukraine, but the general assembly doesn't have the same weight of international law behind

it that the security council would, in a similar resolution condemning the illegal annexation of these 4 areas in ukraine, failed in the security council. because of russia's veto. so it's worth pointing out that back in 2014, when russia annexed, you a crimea, a similar situation evolved here at the united nations where a resolution failed in the security council. but then was passed in the general assembly in that case by 100 votes. so it's a moral victory, but it doesn't have the weight of international law. the jury in the u. s. is ordered the right wing conspiracy theorists, alex jones to pay almost a $1000000000.00 in damages off to falsely claiming that the 2012 sandy hook shook school shooting was a hoax. haskell hain has the latest. the jury,

please listen to your verdict as it has been recorded. they have been through so much the emotions of this moment clear in the court room. the man who publicly denied their children were slaughtered in their classroom, who called them actors, and unleashed his followers to harass them with death threats. that man, alex jones will pay for what he did. estimation slander damages at the future. $25000000.00. be a most little destruct damages, past and future. 32000000, 600000 jones is already facing one judgment for $45000000.00 for this conduct. but this was by far the biggest penalty, $965000000.00 to the families of h students and staff that were killed in their sandy, her classroom. and in f b i agent who was also targeted by jones. all i can really just tell them what we are able to accomplish. we just simply tell the truth. it shouldn't be this hard

. and it shouldn't be the during the trial, jones didn't help this case telling the family he's done apologizing. something he defended outside. of course, i've apologized for passing. i said hurtful feelings, but i wasn't the 1st person. the question. and i apologize. years ago it's estimated the jones in his companies are worth between $135.00 and $270000000.00. he is trying to shield his assets by declaring bankruptcy, but that's not always guaranteed to work still and will say this could make future conspiracy theorists think before attacking victims of her risk crimes. again, these families last young children, 6 and 7 years old, 6 teachers also died that day. jones was in court the back on the airwaves using this trial to raise money. not for those he hurt, but for himself. i remember i'm in bankruptcy. we got 2 years of appeals, the money you donate does not go to these people. it goes to fight fraud and it

goes to stabilize the company they want to shut down. that's why the van with asia did their unrepentant still. but now potentially, eventually he might pay a very steep price. particle. hain al, jazeera washington. jason stanley's a yell university philosophy, profess and the author of how propaganda works. he joins a slide from, you have an in connecticut. thank you for your time, sir. your reaction to the nearly $1000000000.00 in damages put on james, what does that tell us about what the jury was thinking? well, it's a terribly sad and tragic case. it's a open and a shot defamation case. legally speaking, you're not allowed to lie. i get, make obvious lies about people in a way that damages the reputation. and this is an open and shot legal case that was decided long ago. we now have the, are, the jury's, are decisions about the liability are. so there is no issue here about

that. he violated the law. it's not a free speech case at all i. he violated the law and, and what he did was so horrific that the, the costs, but he's being asked to pay are entirely justifiable. and hopefully this will do something to curtail the kind of massive conspiracy theorizing that is so damaging democracy. you cannot have wild can false conspiracies in a democracy because they undermine the shared reality that's required for policy making. what's extraordinary is that he made millions of dollars over the years falsely describing the shooting at the heights and accusing the victims families of being act as complicit in the plot. how exactly did he do that?

well that there is money to be made and destroy. in reality, we know this and it makes people think that, that there is no common reality that, that the elite are lying to you. you know, the way to do it is take the most, the most sort of obvious moving thing, in this case, sandy hook one of the great tragedies in american history and say it's all a fake and ally. and that will really be stabilized people and it will confirm their senses will give them a sense of confirmation that they're missed. trust in a lease that they're mistrust in the media. that they're mistrust. in reality is somehow legitimate. and so he used this immense tragedy to not only to victimize the, the parents and, and affect those affected by the murderous rampage and sandy hook. but he used it to victimize, the americans who, who he fraud, who we, he,

defrauded by feeding their sense of abandonment and betrayal by the system and making it make, trying to legitimated in this horrific way. he related to this, mister jones is just one individual in an information landscape rife with false heads about a range of things from the cave in 1900 pandemic, to start in election, so on and so forth. to what extent will this their day and other that it's like this quell that miss information and the spread if misinformation now i don't do prediction, i'm not in the prediction business, but i can explain why it is vital that it does. it's vital that it does qual, a qual, this we needed to because the way democracy works is we all have to have a shared reality and common reactions to that shared reality. so we can discuss

them together. if we can't have common rea, if we can agree on the truth, and then have reactions to that truth, that, that, and how can we formulate together policies about how to deal with reality? these conspiracy theorists are destroying that common reality and making democracy impossible. jason stanley, very good to talk to you from yale university philosophy, professor ortho, several books, including how proper propaganda wax joining steph new haven, connecticut. thank you for your time. thank you. returning t, the ukraine war now and the country's president has appealed to the international community for more money. for rebuilding of the months of russian bombardment, elizabeth lensky, toll the wealth bank and international monetary fund around $55000000000.00 is needed for reconstruction. and for the country spending needs on fisher reports

a case that gripped the british capital. he died from a single shot to the head by a police marksman through a car window at close range. the wrapper and construction worker was unarmed and weeks away from becoming a father. police say the car was linked to firearms offences, but they weren't given campus name because the car didn't belong to him. the killing spunk to desperate search for answers from campus family. the cause for criminal charges against the officer who pulled the trigger. that officer has been suspended while the independent office for police conduct carries out a homicide investigation. how come a young man sit in a car on on the shore, in their head by police, while the independent investigation into what happened on this london street continues the killing of chris cabra, his re open questions of police competence, and even allegations of institutional racism. and for others who have lost their loved ones as a result of police action cameras,

death is reopened. old wounds. marcy rigs, brother, shaun escaped sir phrenic, died after being restrained in police custody. he was arrested for the theft of a passport, which was actually his own. and at g. louis whose 23 year old son shanie, died when he was held down by 11 police officers. while he was a patient in a mental health hospital and anna, so santa mother of 17 year old jack, he drowned after being chased into a river by police. yes, the young men have one common thread, none willing to crime. who were ethnic minorities all desperately in need of help? my generation, the oldest and retired and were exhausted. the problem is they're doing it to our youth. and so we are double traumatized. why can't the government sing this? where is the humanity? if all police officers had guns, it would be like america. pick a st. jude 1st and think after work, whether if they think, you know,

but they shoot 1st is quite disturbing. they are there to protect themselves. they closed their ranks. they act with impunity. i don't trust them at all. the main police and the national police chiefs counsel declined to speech wells on camera. the man police issuing this statement saying we continue to fully support the independent office for police conduct investigation. as they work to establish the facts and try to answer the many questions, mister cabot, family and others have around his tragic death. it could be 9 months for investigators to come back with their findings in that time distrust in the police amongst the cities blank communities deepens, while cabbage family, who viewed the police body cam footage of the killing continued demand justice, leave bark al jazeera london, near threats met ab is a former metropolitan police superintendent, he says, minority communities, trust and police has broken down. and there's evidence and data to show that if

you're black, you're more likely to be stopped and searched on the street more likely to be tailored. because the perception is that black and black young men are more of a threat. and the evidence shows that evidence from the mare's action plan from the i pcs investigation in 2021 hate him. i see investigation that there's racial profiling and stereotypes because there's a real problem here and they can't be any denials. you can change the leadership that doesn't change the problem. and the problem is embedded is within the systems and processes. something has to be done and what does it take? we've had review after review. first was about the 30 years go, you know, 23 years and the macpherson report that was the public inquiry. you've had the law me review that looked at injustices within the criminal justice system,

barrenness mcgregor smith, another review making recommendations. and we've also got to the race action plan that's been put together by the college of policing and the national police chiefs counsel in by view, what needs to change is that there needs to be a royal commission. that's the strategy because none of these other reviews have a strategy foot thing. so we need a world commission, a that's independent and the findings actually go straight to the government. so the government can implement change. india has halted production at a pharmaceutical factory out cough medicine produced. there was linked the deaths of children in the gambia. the health minister for the state of haryana says the facility violated several protocols. the world health organization has warned cough syrup made an india could be linked the death of nearly 70 children in the west african state lab sample show the medicine was contaminated well, india is well the largest exposure of generic drugs,

but its regulatory structure is widely seen as inadequate, been criticized for being fragmented and disorganized, with the central authority lacking autonomy. and with dozens of state regulators and health departments, coordination is difficult. this has led to poor enforcement of rules on drugs and a lack of accountability. for shawn's ready is a lawyer and co co author the truth pill, the myths of drug regulation in india. he blames pool government regulations, recurring tragedy, similar to the ones in the gambia and the not something you but with a policy industry is repeated from the indian dropping law of a lot that act in mind when you call them and it hasn't changed much. and then, so we have a system of the regulator for every 8th and that which licenses

manufacturing. last, you have a center regulator which big import and rather by the end of the day and has about results with limited limited to their own. and a lot of the to the now since $954.00 that i'm going to be trying to consolidate the die off. they will create a more unified regulator. but it's important to understand that the union bombs and people industries of a powerful entity and a lot of them are completely against a more unified system because they know that would be the quality and efficient regulation. and perhaps then also he bought the manufacturing drug. so we presume that from the industry is one of the main reason that you don't have unified stock to or droughts and extreme weather have cause world

wide wheat ingrained shortages and an increase in fe prices and sweden. however, warmer temperatures have led to record breaking harvests. the country spearheading was such that could help farmers world wide protect their crops from climate change or reese reports from slough. it's the last day of the harvest in small live in southern sweden. but this week isn't destined for the nation's bread baskets. this is the test real that the lumps men and farming cooperative. where management tina hendrickson has a mission to breed crops that have future proof. we develop new bright if of week to make sure that the right discounts, they'll produce a big yields as possible. even if the climate change is what we really want to produce is varieties, but are robust to a lot of different climates for her team. it's been

a decade long process. 45000 types of wheat have been whittled down to an elite sheaf of just 10 resistant to extreme heat, droughts, and floods. the knowledge could be crucial further south. the worst droughts in 500 years of caused crops to fail in italy, france and germany. farming here used to be challenging because of the cold. not any more. 2022 has been a bumper harvest for sweden, an indication perhaps that their agricultural industry can benefit, at least in the short term, from the effects of climate change. as the heat moves north, sweden's growing season has become longer, warmer. september's in the south have been 2 degrees celsius above the average in recent years. but farmers are aware that the good times might not last long. this farm has been record breaking really, and we've had all the, all the great components related to

a good year. we will probably see more extreme weather, so it seems like in this region that once the rain comes, it comes more. and once the dry weather comes it's, it's for longer periods. changes in climate bring changes in disease causes a toxin that something that the breeding process also tries to combat. sweden's harvests may help with the current food shortages in other countries. but in the long term, the biggest yields, maybe in the lab or rece out is era smaller, sweeter is inland, is set to introduce the scheme that will require farmers to pay for their agricultural greenhouse gas emissions. controversial proposal will be the fast of its kind in the world and may come into fact from 2025 gases naturally emitted by livestock are among new zealand. biggest environmental problems, all money raised from charges on emissions will be recycled back into the system to

fund through the research tools and technology, as well as farmer incentives in order to help reduce emissions. this initiative actually seems the wrong signals to the wrong sector and isn't sufficient to address a climate emergency that we're and tried, isn't gonna protesting against a new sales tax. many worry they could be driven out of business. gordon robison has more traitors and gone as ashanti region are closing up their shops, their ceiling, their stalls with a red band, a symbol of their protest against new taxes. merchant said the new 18.5 percent b a t or value added tax on sales isn't fair. it was that on the one product government is target compounding touches demo, puts us over to paid the box. the company government is as pressing me who is in

kumasi to press the same rate of what the traitors were already feeling squeezed. gun as currency. the cd plummeted. 40 percent against the dollar. over the past 9 months, it's pushed up the price of imports at a time when inflation is already soaring. food prices have more than doubled in the past year. this week, before we even went to this close down. some there was ton rest of it. then that's momentum. if one of the been wanting is about 200, how go to somebody in this condition. these stalls are closed in protest, but some may end up closing for good traders worn a knock on effects to the whole infrastructure of food distribution with their man distribute. that's something to do. and i said there's a help is to be really helping to set the middle part that is the northern part of ghana. and in this case, if the government doesn't come in to us, it's coming to relate the funded the implement.
