11:05 am
gigi city of zoom. when the russians were forced to retreat, they also took part in the fight north of cave. battle that put them against fellow chechens loyal to run them, could be off the chechen leader who publicly support moscow. his fighters also took part in the future when you pull when the russians captured the port city. the case of a 1st ukraine is a close method. i wonder about poland portion, poland. what are they trying to achieve after ukraine? if the order is given and we will show you in 6 seconds, what we're capable all the candy has recently criticized rush of military strategy in ukraine. that has also pledged tens of thousands of men as part of must cause low balance ation efforts. that the russia charitable, small nation. because now the using guys is a canon, meet the we always for to turn in love with the ending by russian and tell them that we are ready guys to get to. if you decide to hands up,
11:06 am
you don't have to fight. we're not asking them to come your brain and fight for what we ask them, not quite against. you know, many of the commanders here veterans of the to chechen wars that reduce the capital growth need to what do you and called the most destroy city on earth. from the near found, there is no freedom, no jobs. young people have no other choice but to join the police or armed forces. nothing is produced before used to have refineries, but they stop everything. oil go to russia. i was the divisions among chechen fighting in ukraine are somehow a war within a war. for these men, the ultimate goal is the creation of the chechen republic of each carrier, independent from moscow sphere influence. how does that mean al jazeera in the key region? in the world news, the british pound has strengthened as the new u. k. chancellor get fed to unveiled tax and spending measures 2 weeks earlier than
11:07 am
planned. jeremy hunter only landed the role on friday has promised to fixed public finances after his predecessors. economic fans sparked panic on the market. let's go live to john hall, who's on the bank of england in london. so the markets are open. jonah, how is it looking? so far, had the government done enough to prevent further typing well for the time being yes, because the markets have open broadly, positively. after the weekend's activities, the pound slightly up against the dollar, the value of government debt slightly up as well. meaning that the cost of government borrowing has fallen, indications that confidence is returning to investors as they look at the state of britain's public finances. what has happened? well, you know, on fridays, you'll recall the previous chance the quasi quartet was sacked. that was his many budget statements euphemistically titled that included tens of billions of dollars worth of tax cuts to be paid for by public. borrowing that so spooked the markets
11:08 am
in the 1st place. jeremy hunt replay replacing him and set about on the weekend. pretty comprehensively. junking what remained of that plan and indicating that tax rises would be necessary as long as, as well as public spending cuts. and we understand that the chancellor jeremy who will later today bring forward some of the measures that he intends to put in place to achieve all of that forward by 2 weeks from the statement that was due on october the 31st. so that is happening much sooner than had previously been thought the markets will like that. the other aspect is the bank of england withdrawing its bond buying support on friday at the emergency intervention, trying to get those bonds that had been falling in value off the books of pension funds that were in danger of bankrupting. this is a sign that, that is now sustainable, that withdrawal of that support and the bank of england governor andrew bailey said to see i to i know with the new child. so jeremy, helped in terms of restoring a more much more orthodox management of the economy, where previously the bank and the government was seen to be putting in opposite
11:09 am
directions. and this all has a political effect to join, doesn't it would greatest ability save the prime minister's job. not necessarily. it is certainly true that what has happened in the bond markets in the financial markets has done irreparable, potentially damage to lease trust. what happens now is really up to her and her party because the party are in an awful mess. it is hugely divided and turning pretty quickly against the prime minister. the token, westminster now is all of a prime ministry name only with the chancellor in charge of premier whose job is hanging by a thread list trust will set about trying to restore confidence in her premier ship by holding meetings with small groups of m. p. 's now and over the coming weeks, and she's calling her cabinet together on monday night, but nothing is likely instantly to quell,
11:10 am
talk of efforts to try it out to potentially asking the 3rd prime minister this conservative party in a row. remember, she is now a premier who's central political offering. this vision for growth with low taxes and low regulation has now been comprehensively shredded. she is said by senior empties and her party to have lost her credibility and her already in the party. and looming over all of that are opinion polls some 18 months ahead of an election that suggest pretty clearly that they would that election would be one in a walk over by the opposition labor party. joe. and i thank you for that. john hall live there in london. now stephen innis is the managing partner at s b i asset management. he explains what the market's expect from jeremy hands announcement later today. they want to hear physical therapy. they don't want the budget to blow out, so to speak, because the market voted against buying anymore. u. k. bond last week. and that's the last thing we want to do. so we'll be really focused on the size of the budget
11:11 am
and how much debt that, that relation. look, it's going to be a tradeoff here between the bank of england and what the government's doing. and this is the interplay that markets want to see. right now the bank of england is extremely concerned about inflation. the last thing they want to do right now is 7 places written by the government. so both are critical right now, just not the government, but also the bank of england interaction with any new fiscal budgets that are going to be released. i think we're going to see lots of rates volatility throughout the week. and fed reserve board does not have to come here because they're continuing to wrap up the interest rate. so it's not just one area, it's 2 areas that we're continuing to watch. but not every central bank is in the same problem right now. they're really, really worried about inflation. last thing they want is inflation. now they're forced to raise interest rates. but what does interest rates do? especially in economy like the u. k. interest rate. now, higher interest rates are going to stifle the economy and that the risk raising spectrum stack play should. that's the worst of all outcomes. and that's something
11:12 am
that we really have to contend with going forward throughout the rest of the year. and we have the tail remaining candidate for the presidency. have gone head to head in a debate for the 1st time, present. jade both scenario and challenge. and lucy, now you live, the silva locked in a tight one off that take place in 2 weeks. no, no, says both scenarios, negligence during the pandemic lead to hundreds of thousands of preventable dest also narrow accuses opponent, allies of harming the poor, was the savvy keowee store, could be that, you know, i am a candidate with perspective to rebuild this country, get this country back to normality, i want congress to legislate and not just pass a budget. let the government govern and let the judiciary play its role. but what is more important is that the poorest people become citizens again. and so call a thought informative. you talk so much about the poor and i want to make it very clear during the year 2020, when the people were forced to stay at home,
11:13 am
not by my decision, but by many governors of your party. they were going to die of hunger. it is you from rio de janeiro, monica and i care has more. they spent a lot of time each one thing at the other one was lying, which in fact, it was true. also, i love attack bull, so not all because of the pandemic, the results, the 680000 people that died here and many of them because it brazil took time to our by the vaccines. and on the other hand, also, nato struck back remembering that our ruler was involved in a big corruption scandal, he ended up being imprisoned. ah, then his trial was unknown to because of procedural errors. but nonetheless. 8 there was a corruption scandal, and so there was analysts say here that there was a tie. now this is a very, very nail biting election that we're seeing ahead of us. both candidates fighting
11:14 am
for every single vote move are still the favorite. still ahead on al jazeera ambushed in kenya, i will tell you about the people fleeing to safety only to run into more travel with protest in paris, tens of thousands of people demand action from the french government to tackle the rising cost, with anticipation is rising and so with most of my cattle aways, the part of the autumnal storms is still the same. they come up from the atlantic trust the british isles and towards scandinavia. and the rain often spreads into the middle of europe. so that's what's going on currently and is typical of autumn is one little anomaly down here in the eastern mesh, we'll get to the 2nd,
11:15 am
but the immediate future that rain, they will just touch spain, france, and probably german low countries. at the time being, it's nice and sunny in england. for example, 17 in london. now you saw happened in crete, and there's still a risk of some showers, though, probably not big thunderstorms in crete, but the wind up this depression here is near cyprus. so cyprus has that risk of big thunderstorms, but hasn't yet been realized. it's quite possible that risk will go away during choose, it's a low goes away with it. and then on wednesday, i think they'll just disperse the other side of the mediterranean. all that rain is coming in from the atlantic is inducing warm breezes ahead of it. so look at the temperature in the southern half of spain. we're still in thirty's, and this is well into october. if you look at the forecast from madrid, that's a city a long way above sea level, middle of space are at 29 on she says 10 above average. it does cool down as the rain eventually makes it in. and that rain also spreads through germany, polled in the czech republic during tuesday,

11:19 am
a lot in the middle east and iraq and syria, by with a sense of resurgence of the violence, isis, and many parts of the continent uniform in a period of 2010, 2011. this work times that we can see i assist transplant here and very significant and, and we saw that violence grow to intensity, around 201415. this was the peak of the violence in africa and what they did last year, then this period for terrorism, not on globally, but also on the continent. and i says they haven't been collapse today or the color . it may have been collapsed, but we see it on the different ways and very, very track ways in africa. much more space, especially within west africa y c. and i seen that try to move. i have to start, it's largely one because of the very fact job on the job of this b,
11:20 am
b one ability to and this complex capacity to contain that balance. i'm insurgency, like i say, and i think i, you know, i feet and we're seeing it happening very, very depressed that way. and if you look at the last 4 years in the last 2 years, as in particular, we've seen that threat expanding to true in many ways that have been held by issues of covet issues. so you got a deficit and you got youth unemployment to say you, he would phenomenon here, an extremist groups taking advantage of this weaponized glasses on this populations and include them to replenish the general i test and we've seen it very, very dreadful with the style in west africa, hostile states, now. so you say their number of factors,
11:21 am
poverty being one of the main ones that have led to, to iso being able to, to grow and expand on the african continent. the group spanner is no doubt catching on. what about it's ideology itself, in what regions in particular has it taken hold and what has been the impact i village, is this how this powerful re now to radically support and take advantage of what local groups. but we'll see in the future of other factors that have become more and more we see in the future all exists them for long. so. so in the quality issues or marginalization issues or exclusion and issues, look for log out of resolved conflicts within the speeds that allow extreme is correct. a lot of people will feel much of a lies and reveal disproportionately are represented in society. and this phenomenon is he always seen it a 2nd time home, a g o,

extra ms. bonds that we discussed on the tree. the have become the purpose of phenomena taken that advantage of this existence for represent is, what can i, when that group quotes from people on the side of things wanted to see away from normal mainstream parent aspirants. now there's a global coalition to fight i. so and it held the meeting in morocco just a few months ago. the us we noticed promised a $100000000.00. is that enough? what do you think should be the strategy to take on these and books on the african continent? all this question, the approach to fighting terrorism, america and in the attic law. and that question. and the question i did to you know, and the fact that no amount of money committed to frighten terrorism, we'll see if the average is wrong. we have, what's the cruise tide is the response to terrorism. we're seeing, you know,
11:23 am
that disproportionate focus on kinetic forces. ha, ha, ha, ha. then using come back means to do with terrorism. and the have led to the big reason we have failed in design. and with my fail again, if you do not learn the lessons from this, we need to look at the economic and social drivers. b, i do know to call factors. and the gender economy factors that be individual form groups to become susceptible, susceptible to recruitment. this is the only responsible way to do them would detract within the region. thank you so much for talking to us montero, mooney mac chai. joining us there from a cry in ghana you're welcome. kenya has launched a security operation following the killing of at least 11 people in the north. there were ambushed by armed fees, catherine sawyer, recourse until connor in northern kenya. lower down the mary, a. chi was a community leader in north in kenya, but she was killed alongside 10 other people,
