1:09 am
a corridor for people to actually move out to the ukrainian side at this stage. that seems almost inconceivable. but we're in that area yesterday and relatively speaking. and we saw a lot of ukrainian military tanks being moved to and fro. ukrainian soldiers, again in an hedge rose in the areas of countryside around they, we saw helicopter gun ships as well. a lot of very nervous civilians in that area. that area that is being re taken by the ukraine. and so yeah, a lot of unanswered questions. but obviously ukrainians determines to re take control of this huge, great city of, of huge strategic bones or rush as presidents as the drafting of 300000 soldiers will be completed within 2 weeks. and now there are no plans for a full military mobilization speaking at a news conference and cuz it sounds capital vladimir putin said no. when asked if

1:13 am
wrong in while the us extra se anthony blinking has praised demonstrate is across iran. i think we are seeing something that is quite remarkable throughout the country lead primarily by women and young people. this denial of fundamental rights, fundamental freedoms, is something that the united states has long worked against as many other countries around the world. but 1st and foremost, this is the iranian people standing up with extraordinary courage for the rights that are being denied them. well now the turkish interior minister says that the death toll offer an exposure in a coal mine has risen to 22 people. 17 others are being treated for their injuries, ordered and 10 workers reported to be in the mine and barton province. at the time of the blast. the minister said 49 mine has it been working deep on the ground?

1:18 am
year to just point 6 percent in 2023. coming in to 2022 things stood a strength, coordination and solidarity displayed in policy responses to carried 19. europe was on its way to exit depend, mimic meanwhile, rising inflation was expected to gradually subside as commodity prices and supply body next would ease. but it rushes invasion of ukraine changed our pitcher completely. and it is now taking a growing toll on europe's economies. 0 is alan fish. i was born this now from washington. the delegates and representatives will be leaving the i m. f. world bank meetings here in washington over the next couple of days with the reality, really enforced to them that the economic picture globally is not great. number of problems. first of all, growth is down and inflation is high, not just in certain sectors, but essentially across the world. that means that feeding family's heating homes
1:19 am
becomes much more expensive for ordinary people. and part of the reason for that is the war in ukraine. no. janet jaelyn, who is the us treasury secretary, essentially the finance minister. she has been speaking here in washington, and she said it was important that the international community watch together to make sure that russia continues to suffer for the warden ukraine. one thing we want to be clear about is that russia should not profit from having i started this atrocious war in ukraine and shouldn't be benefiting from profits it result from and those, those atrocities the i m f is insisting that the priority should be helping those who can least afford to help themselves. the poorest and community is just a couple of days since the head of the i m f said that inflation was essentially attacks on the poorest parts of every single community. but the reality is,
1:20 am
this isn't going to get better any time soon. the i m f long term forecast is that growth will be down and inflation will be high. continuing into 2023 before it starts to death. and for that, many things have to break the away, the hasn't to be any more climate emergencies. and of course, the big overriding question is, can there be peace in ukraine which would help stabilize markets, but also ease issues like fuel insecurity and also food insecurity for those leaving. here it is a very big leap picture 420222023. a battle for a crucial senate seat in the state of georgia comes to head to day. and the only televised debate between the sitting democratic senator and his republican challenger. democrats, raphael warnock will face off against former football star hush al walker, who is backed by former president donald trump. race has been rocked by media reports that walker, who is voiced opposition to abortion, without exceptions,
1:21 am
once paid for a woman, he was dating to have an abortion. he's called the allegation, a flat out lie. georgia is one of the seats that could determine which party controls the u. s. senate after the midterm elections in november, might can joins us now from savannah. georgia might tell us 1st why this contest is so important. well, it has been an incredibly of vociferous campaign, an incredibly, a degree of enmity between the candidates, the attack ads that each candidate has fielded is like nothing that has been seen before in terms of their ferocity. and this is just an indication of how much and how important this election is. why is that important? well, this is one of the 2 senate seat said that we're one in a runoff election by the democrats back in january 2021, which gave them control of the senate. the 2 seats meant that they got their 50
1:22 am
seats in the senate chamber, which were the costing vote of the vice president gave the democrats a majority in the chamber. now that is why this election is so critically important to the democrats to be able to retain control of the senate winning the seat would be absolutely essential if they are to do so. that it is also a very important test of the influence of donald trump. over these mid term elections, he has endorsed herschel walker, and it's going to be interesting to see the impact of that endorsement, whether it is positive or negative on walker himself. but as you mentioned, those allegations that had been flooding around the later set of allegations concerning walker paying for an abortion. having a vehemently opposed of the right to reproduction is playing into the polls. it would appear latest reports indicated that he's now trailing by some $2.00 to $5.00
1:23 am
percentage points, which is a big increase in what it was a month ago. so a critical race here at not just for the democrat and republican candidates, but for their parties as a whole, as an indicator of which way the midterm elections will go as a whole. as he say, this could have great significance for biden, and his agenda with republicans trying to re take control of the house of representatives and the senate. so how could this mid term election affect the direction the country takes in the next 2 years? so well, it's absolutely critical in terms of that direction. you mention the by an agenda. now, biden is attempting to get voters to go out to the polls and returns. traditionally, mid terms are very unkind on the party impala on the current administration. abide and has also been plagued with a massive rise in oil prices, for example, partially because of the ukraine war ab. he has brought those prices down to
1:24 am
a degree, but he's using other elements to try and get people to go to the polls among them. the supreme court striking down, or the ro versus wade case, legalizing abortion throughout the united states. now, this is the type of issue that biden is hoping. we'll galvanized voters and drive them to the polls because at stake is whether or not his administration for the next 2 years isn't it that elaine doc administration, if he does not have control of the house, if he does not quite have control of the senate, he will not be able to push any further forward in terms of his wide raging agenda that he keeps on proposing he wants to do. so it's actually critical in terms of the future of the country. how people vote in his mid term elections. and just to get back to georgia and why georgia is so important on a national basis in 2020 bite and became the 1st democrat in decades to actually
1:25 am
win an election in watch was a solid red state. but shifting democratic, so within georgia, has actually made the state wide open. now it's become purple as some people put it bite and one at in 2020. he's hoping that what happens in the mid term elections in trenches this trend of movement away from the republican right to be democrats. now this election will give that kind of indication of whether that is happening, not just in georgia, not just in the senatorial seat, but in the us as a whole. our thank you very much from a ga mike hannah. now the one, well food program says haiti is facing a monitoring catastrophe. ears at battles, malnutrition, gang violence, and an outbreak of cholera over 4 and a half 1000000 people. that's almost half the countries population of facing acute hunger. this includes a 100000 children under the age of 5 suffering from severe malnourishment for princes impoverished neighbor seats allays and particularly hard hit 900000
