2:06 am
responsible through administrative and legal investigations. we no longer want to see deficiencies or unnecessary risk in mind that the mine belongs to the state own turkish hard cool enterprises. because a friday explosion and the coal mine behind me is still under investigation. whatever the come to kid does not have a good face to record, particularly in coal mining. despite the fact the number of accidents has been decreasing in recent years. 8 years ago, 301 people were killed in the nation's worse coal mining disaster, which occurred in the western town of soma, was to escape all the site used to in place 6000 workers. now the same production is carried out by $700.00 workers. we will see the same things if there is no effective investigation and inspection to turn penalties are required. mistakes by state company cannot be forgiven. the rescue operation has now ended,

2:08 am
other fullness of yet states. regardless, really of who the perpetrator was. it shows how poorly protected russian military base is, are if somebody can just turn up until 11 a. so just at the base. and it also shows how unprepared the russian authorities are. they didn't even mean they didn't even manage to, to kill them after one soldier was shocked because they shot eleven's fingers. these a terrorists are the perpetrators. so it is really extremely embarrassing, and that comes on top of rochester minter performance and ukraine, which hasn't really been extremely impressive either. so it raises the question of, of really the professionalism in the russian, i'm forcing how well they're protected. and also you can imagine that if you are somebody who's about to call a be called up or worried that you'd be called up, you look at this and say whom i'd better make my my way the way out of the country
2:09 am
and with through any, any means at my disposal, because i don't want to end up like this. well, the 1st clip of russian soldiers has now arrived in paris. a convoy is expected to team up with bell russian traits. last monday annabel russian president, had ukraine was plotting to attack his country. he announced a joint force with moscow. the defense ministry says its mission is to strengthen the defense of the border. meanwhile, rush in force as if pumped a number of towns we captured by ukrainian tramps and her son, the ukrainian military told under there it suspects that the russian attacks are to secure air defense points from ammunition deputies, but not necessarily to advance in while to a number of russian soldiers are surrendering on the hassan front. cha, stratford has more from one village in hassan. this is one of dozens of villages in the care, southern region that recently has been re taking control of by ukrainian forces in this very successful counter offensive towards the occupied city of care. soon as
2:10 am
you can see, the level of destruction is extreme. now we've seen a few civilians coming back inspecting what remains of their homes trying to rebuild them. but by and large, this area is very quiet. we've heard what sounds like ot coming in out coming shilling in recent hours. but what's interesting, we've spoken to ukraine in military source is they are saying that they are dealing with a push boy. russian forces against that counter offensive, ukrainian military source is a saying that they've shut down at least one russian helicopter. and they're saying that the reason why the russians are doing this is because they are trying to protect an air base and ammunition deposed. now, we have traveled up this road further south towards care santa rosa about another 5 or 6 kilometers. and we was stopped by the military,
2:11 am
they refused to let us go any further. and they said the reason was because of an ongoing military operation. and russian missile strikes have continued on the southern ukrainian city of upper region. a parking lot in the city bore the full brunt of one rushing attack, as you can see, with cars destroyed, and nearby buildings damaged, ukrainian official se kamikaze. drones and missiles were used. russian forces have launched a series of strikes in ukraine in the past week, mostly at civilian targets. around the government says, a fire that broke out the evan prison and tara has been brought under control gunshots. they also had video, the ash showed smoke rising from the prison where many political prisoners are held rainy and state media says classes broke out between inmates and gods, and rioters started the fire while that comes as protest against around the government and to the 5th week now, despite a crackdown by security forces, it's been a month since the funeral of 22 year old martha mimi. she died in custody of iran,

2:17 am
they were killed by return fire on china's most important political event in decades is set to begin in the coming hours. president cheating being is almost certain to remain at the helm. one communist party delegates meet, but the rest of the leadership there is set for a shake up patrick rock as a journalist based in beijing. and he talks through what's at stake. the streets of painted red and securities when stepped up ahead of china's come, his party, congress beijing's tightened coven 19 curbs as well. and he outbreak during this important political event, would be an embarrassment for the government. of course, people are paying attention to, you know, whether there will be changes or short from changes or because it is affecting everybody is affecting the entire nation. while the rest of the world has mostly decided to live with the virus. china has doggedly pursued 0 cove approach, heaping pressure on the economy shoring up growth will be
2:18 am
a top priority for the new leadership. many people will be keeping a close eye on the new economic line up. you are talking about a very, very profound major personnel changes in china. the personality of different leaders at different levels to have major impact among those on their way out. our premier leeker chung who manages the world's 2nd largest economy and lose her president. she's top economic adviser, both as seen as pro market reformists. it's hard to say who could step in to fill those shoes, decision making for the leadership reshuffle a made behind closed doors, but many political and let's believe incoming candidates will be she lawyer less with a more state driven economic approach. another question is whether the re chauffeur will throw up any potential successor to she can pick some fear. the president's consolidation of power may divert attention away from the most pressing problem g,
2:19 am
the wealthiest. the economic problem seems to have been cast aside beijing now focusing on the power shift on the establishment of a totalitarian system. i believe china's economy in the long run will find it difficult to escape from the prospect of recession we're tripping. the we like to prevent that from happening and over all of china's coven 19 policy could be crucial. but there's little indication as it stands of any significant change. patrick fall, al jazeera beijing, while british prime minister lynn's trust is under pressure to keep her job after making you turns on to major policies. she fired her finance minister on friday, replacing him with jeremy hunt, and he is admitted that trusses scrapped tax plan was a mistake and warns that difficult decision still lie ahead. andrew summons reports now from london. financial and political chaos, a prime minister refusing to quit, but the u. k. media aren't alone in st. time is up for liz. trust her sacking of
2:20 am
her chancellor and friend quasi quite thing on friday. and her dismal performance in a news conference afterwards. failed to calm the market, only going to say, now it rests with the new occupant of the chancellor's office at number 11 downing street. jeremy hunt, to turn things around on his 1st morning in office. he was critical of what trust has done so far was a mistake to cut the top rate of tax at a period when we were asking every one to make sacrifices. and it was a mistake to fly blind and not to back up the economic plans that were announced with an independent forecast from the office for budget responsibility. while hunt says he supports growing the economy, he's talking of increasing some taxes. the only cuts will be on some of the spending. ministers and party grandees would normally look to number 10 for solutions and tactics. not now. it's number 11. jeremy hunt, the 4th chancellor. in a matter of a 100 days. he's got
2:21 am
a strong background and it will appear. he has a mandate to rewrite large parts of important government policy. some in the conservative party say, trust has become a lame duck prime minister because she's appointed hunt. he's the dominant figure in the garden. i mean, you could imagine, can't you, if you asked to take on that role, the concessions that you would demand in, in order to do that. and it would have to be in your control over economic policy, over personnel, over key committees, whatever the conservative party does, it can't afford to trigger an election. one new polls suggest it has less than 20 percent support. the opposition labor party is rallying its members. whatever they say now, whatever they do, it boils down to one argument for them. it's party 1st country, 2nd advance, unforgivable because it is
2:22 am
a low. the double mistress is of the prime minister's country residence for the weekend, baffling to save her job job. he hunts, but most of south ago with his treasury teens working on a formula, we might be able to team the markets, but may not save the program. mr. andrew simmons, al jazeera london, and moving on and security forces and became a faster as a armed groups have killed at least 3 soldiers and 8 civilians. and the countries north, the group is said to have been ambushed and nomine tango province. this latest attack comes after the september 30th crew that are still president left tenant, colonel paul on reese and oh, god amoeba, who seized power back in january. a day later, abraham torrie was declared. his successor or restrictions on movement had been placed on 2 districts in uganda, in an attempt to contain the spread of the abolla virus and the country. it officially declared an outbreak of the virus in september and at least 19 people
2:23 am
have since died. president, our him is 70 says people won't be allowed in or out of the affected areas. there will also be an overnight curfew and bars, jims, and places of worship will be closed for 3 weeks on pakistan has summoned the u. s . ambassador, after president joe biden called the nation, one of the most dangerous in the world by been made those comments on thursday saying, as i'm about has a nuclear arsenal without any cohesion. pakistan says it's nuclear assets, meet every international standard set by the un. while symbol con is the political and security analyst, and she says, the timing of biden's statement was a bit of a surprise, but doubts, it will have a negative impact on the u. s. pakistan relationship. i think the concerns are not very deep as far as the u. s. relationship with pakistan is concerned. be seen a lot of high level visits behind the scenes. things have improved since last year or less than a year even since past 6 months. relationship is has improved,
2:24 am
but i think mostly focused on the policy makers are looking at this statement from the context of us. his own internal mid term was coming up in november. this statement came by president biden was made in a fundraiser. and you know, it's, you know, preceded a link with the futile nuclear threat. i think this whole kind of a fear securitized narrative helps the u. s. president and, and the white house, when they tried to explain why they want to rebuild relationships with pakistan. why is it still important to engage pakistan? because, you know, it's easy to go to the congress and say, hey, there is this country, which is, you know, lacks a cohesion when they say political cohesion. we have some of you know, stakeholders that support you with a strong pakistan u. s. relationship. yet some supporters who do not support that yet. it's a new piano country. it's close to the close to china. i told her close to russia putin was threatening europe. right. now it's important to engage pakistan. so i
2:25 am
think that that narrative sells for me as who i think that's where it's coming from . iraq is amongst the world's largest oil producers, but despite that was the last wealth. energy isn't always available in homes and businesses than for decades. many have suffered because of power outages. alhashan reports now from the capital. this is a daily reminder to iraq. he is living in baghdad. the country is among the walls, richest in energy. what for this man and those living here? oh, it got an outdated electricity infrastructure. make them angry, and a mix of corruption, mismanagement, and political crisis. i'm making without a lot. ottawa in tampa. we have 4 hours of blackouts followed by 2 hours of service . but when the national electricity is on its like traffic lights, it goes on and off all the time. people he are suffering when these cables are
2:26 am
failing to deliver power to their households. but when they do, they become dangerous to human lives, as they are left low hanging in residential areas. malika has been a main instigator for anguish protests and iraq. in the past few years. under 50 degrees celsius summer, people had to live with blackouts or pay for local generators. ladale alarm federal marbella, these again between our demand and supply, we need 35000 megawatts of electricity, even if we secure 25000. we still need 10000 megawatts. we need more stations in different cities. also we need new lines to all the provinces. the lack of budget is challenging al plants and occupies guys on power from iran to cover a 3rd of its needs. but with sanctions on to her on payments have been overdo, you're on is struggling with increased power demand and is cutting power supplies,
2:27 am
not splitting, more pressure on iraq's national electricity supply. and for me to miguel, out of offer iran is providing us with $1200.00 megawatt. besides the gas we use in the plants that produce $3300.00 megawatt of electricity. a film that are also accusations electricity is being used by iran to maintain influencing to count the countries influence the as in college, baghdad, to sign a deal with the gods corporation council or g. c. c, to get about 500 megawatts of energy for iraq is very important to rectify our relations and to get electric supply from different countries. so that will not be under pressure from any side, whether iran, one of the safety or even will jordan and egypt since 2003 and all kinds spend more than $80000000000.00 on upgrading its power grid. but many say they've
2:28 am
yet to see the benefits or the hash images 0 back that now scientists and chill em are trying to stop ships from hitting whales. commercial shipping is the leading cause of death amongst the species, but a noonish to have could help to manage the underwater traffic. our latin america editor, lucy newman reports now from santiago in chillies pacific, in unassuming navy boat takes it, prized cargo to be deposited of the gulf of corcovado. it's not just any boy, but when equipped was state of the art artificial intelligence software that could detect an identified different species of whales in these pristine patagonia and waters akees. i want to thank went bad mike, we know that here we can find the largest concentration of blue wells that come here to feed every summer. these animals are the largest on our planet, yet they are vulnerable,
2:29 am
particularly to maritime traffic. collisions with large ships is the number one cause of death of these wales according to scientists. now the new technology called leads or, or listening to the deep ocean, can pinpoint the whales location by listening to their songs and sent a satellite message in real time to chili's navy, which in turn alerts the nearby ships. and it is exactly why the technology does it alerts oh, the presence of the oil. so the captain can temporary or change their nichols and avoid collisions. conventional radar and solar technology on ships cannot detect the presence of whales, which are usually most at risk while feeding at night. michel andre, who created the leader technology, says noise generated by ships can be lethal, as it distorts the marine animal sooner hearing and communication systems where we are with for the thought of you from the engine of the water we will have,
2:30 am
or here every, the water is, will be a 1000 time louder than we are going to do in the human ears can't detect it, but it seriously disorient whales and dolphins putting them in harm's way. this boy is part of an ambitious effort by chili's government and angels like the merry foundation to turn the pacific ocean into a by a logical corridor between canada and southern chile. these whales come here and it's a 2 to blow, but they, they travel all over the pacific ocean. so this is the 1st boy, but there will be others, and there will be in the ocean of other or of other countries as well. many, many more of the special boys will be needed to make a difference, but rather than to drop in the ocean. this one is being seen as an important 1st step to see in human al.
