ah trade unionists including oil refinery work has gotten strike in france, causing anger amongst the public over fuel shortages. ah, bloodsaw robin, this is obviously life and dope whole. so coming up ukraine's president, walls of a critical situation is more russian and strikes target major infrastructure a color outbreak in level say as the disease might spread across the reach and possibly affecting millions. i am harmony, bruce. yeah, in one of my generous born cohesive states in denija delta that is completely cut off from the rest of the country. obviously are struggling to bring in a as quickly as possible as the situation gets ah,

ah, book and we begin in friends, sweat frustration over the rising cost of living a spot, a nationwide strike all across the country. people are demanding high wages. they've been disruption and the public sector and transport system with teachers, bus drivers, and health care workers walking off the jobs well counts that nuclear power plants and oil depots have drastically reduced frances energy and fuel supply. natasha butler has more from paris. this very large devastation the entire run. i must say it's not a nation wide strike in the sense for not every sector has come out to take part of this. like what we have seen the mainly trying to work if you like to work with others have joint in the last week and i know officially now system facing impact thousands of people walking across the city pretty before people have been telling us all sorts of things of course, i'm only here to them on to hire a 3rd wide about the cost to picking and inflation. i spoke

a bit earlier to real work alex. yes, he was on the trade tried to train, i could say just outside the house. and he told us a bit more about why people have decided to come out on the strike that we have organized today. it depends on relies on 2 factors. the 1st one is that we are all struggling with the rising cost of living and the wages that are not following up and keeping pace with inflation. despite the fact that profits a huge profit are being made at the back of our work. and we are just to claiming our fair share of the wealth we collectively produce. so that's where we understood that's where we are start today. and the 2nd aspect, which is at least as important as the 1st thing i mention, is that our conference in the refineries we have been on strike for almost one months now, which i'd like to massive, all shortages in the, in the petro stations, across the country. are struggling and fighting for high wages. and the government has issued a back to work order for

a few select handful handpicked workers. and i force them to go back to work or setting them with fines or imprisonment. and as such, this is an attack on the right to strike us. no doubt that the people that we have spoken to today, the protesters say they will continue to demonstrate and feel that the mom from that person to feel they are being held by their policies with okay, i have to say the public opinion flipping away was very strongly in favor, a people really understand that like with the vehicle we've seen opinion suggest now the people really want the refinery to head. they want things to get back to normal. and i imagine that's what the government is really hoping for. as well as in tomato micro no, just on monday for an end to the site to really have to

if you were to go out and rebel, say they've lost the city of charlotte to government forces. the ethiopian foreign ministry says it's ready to work with humanitarian organizations. to ensure aid is to live in 2 areas controlled by its army. fighting between pro government forces and to grow and rebels received in august, both sides of keys, each other, breaking a 5 month truce carradine desires a member of ethiopia, parliament, and an assistant professor of social anthropology. as is at the university, he says ethiopian government is committed to defending the country's territorial integrity. on august 24, it was the war was connected by the t. p said that it is very much for me that it was, you know, that the plaintiffs had expanded into the market and i part of it and then it should be funded lunch. it should be that particular of that, i'm thinking. so why it's just conducting that depending that regular position is till the money, the very open in

a 4 piece deadlock to to put into the process. but with any governmental, as you can understand, that it was it violation international violation by other parties into the somebody so so it's not defending the total, you know, the territory integrity of ethiopia. that is the point, you know, why is defending on that side is still committed enough to end of the war for a peaceful way. it's a didn't close the door for ending the conflict. according to my understanding is an internal affair between the federal government and the c panel. so, you know, it's a funny question about no hearing from the side is that a parents are involved. but according to my understanding, this is, you know, intended to make the water move it to make it international rather than and it took an affair of them to get attention from the international community. my understanding it's clear is that based on my system and what i'm going to, the part of ethiopia is, you know, between the what is a bit when the federal government in there that, that the p, p live site. before me. this kind of thing to happen due to the fact that we

couldn't control the parts of each of our particularly that to get our regions he strikes on ukraine's capital of killed. at least 3 people. ukrainian officials say 3 missiles at apart. something keith russia is striking critical infrastructure across the country. now there are reports of attacks in the city, the press, and the 2 men. mohammed jim june has wilson keith, another fresh garage of air attacks across the country across many cities, many regions, including here in heave. in fact, there were 3 missiles that hit a critical infrastructure site in the destiny janski's district, which that is east of the capital. it on the left bank of the, in the pro river. it's about 30 minutes from where we are here in cave, in the capital of ukraine. the mayor of p vitale. clinico says it 3 people were killed as a result of those strikes on

a power plant. that was one of the facilities that was hit and destiny ascii, 3 people were killed. they were all employed by that power plant. also there were strikes that happened in j, tamir, that the city neighboring kiva where water and electricity is out. there's also strikes had happened in denise pro and also in her here. let me talk a little bit more for a moment about keith and about the destiny ascii district. we were out there a little bit earlier and we could not access the power plant that was hit. but we did speak to residence there who were without water and power. and it really just went to show just how tough things are right now. in ukraine. french summit manufacture lethargic, plead guilty to paying armed groups in syria. it allow face a penalty worth almost $800000000.00. the company was charged in a u. s. coast. it admitted that it paid. i sal while running a factory in northern syria that 100 over millions of $1.20 to $14.00,

even as the group carried at high profile executions. the united nations says the 1st color break to hit lebanon, the nitty 3 decades is getting worse. infections almost doubled in the last 24 hours to $89.00. 3 people have died. sonata is in the a car, refugee camp in northern lebanon, where the 1st cases were detected. there is little safe water in syrian refugee camps like this one. it was where the 1st cases of cholera were detected in lebanon earlier this month. it's believed to have been transmitted by contaminated water or food from neighboring syria. the lack of sanitation makes crowded camps, high risk areas. in my if nominate them, we really have a problem with the water. the water they give us is dirty. we drink it and cook criss it. 2 cases are no longer confined to camps bordering

syria, but they've since spread to poor areas. we're drinking water is widely polluted and the times mixed with wastewater. lebanese officials are warning that it will be a challenge to contain the disease in a country in the midst of an economic crisis, with limited resources and bad infrastructure. the disease is, according to the united nations evolving alarmingly, disease is never respects any, any borders. so it is very critical to take action. now eunice, apple is on the ground with partners. we are working very closely with w hbo and other partners here. we are doing our level best to insure children receive clean water. i'll be coordinating water in, in the most effective areas. we have providing water through water trucking. i'll be again engaging with communities, sharing information on how to stay safe on how to keep your children safe. it may be too early to speak about an epidemic, lebanon, but health care work,

or say the threat is there, and here in the north, official say, nearly all the water sources are polluted. the cholera outbreak in lebanon and syria is not flowing. humanitarian groups are warning the disease could spread throughout the middle east, affecting millions of people. but they too have been criticized for not having a firm and coordinated response. in syria, there have already been dozens of deaths, nearly 15000 suspected cases. and according to the world health organization, cholera has reached 14 of the 15 governor ritz years of war have severely damaged the water infrastructure as well as the health sector. health system is already weak as a result of the war and the shortage of resources. so an outbreak of any disease will lead to the collapse of the entire health system. official say they are working with international organizations to ensure the country can respond to

a public health emergency. but in countries where few can afford clean and bottled water, this may be hard to control. seneca else is eda, a car, your the lebanon, still had hail now to 0. a warning. the parts of northern kenya facing a state of emergency, as drought pushes communities to the brink of starvation, that a tiny nation with a giant project. our country with one of the world's biggest gas reserves, is shifting to green. energy will tell you all about that space after the plane. ah, with the seasons changing as the weather as it was as it starts to change from europe and across turkey. this is the cloud indicate some sort of activity which produced thunderstorms in northern syria and

then because the wind is up a bit of a dust storm as well, but that will have gone through now. the storm system is still there in this fall revolving set of thunderstorm, which is produced like 5 times the average rainfall in lana care, in cyprus, in cyprus, is at risk from these big downpours which could emulate what happened in crete. but only if you're very unlucky, but the thing is it's still around for the next day or so. as part of this incoming change, which will be sort of jerky, will not be a smooth transition. as you see, the sun's back out into iran and buck who wears yesterday, showers and the snow coming in through the higher ground in the fondles of afghanistan and pakistan between iran and the raven producers. generally speaking, a fine picture now as no showers in that much cloud and is not much wind. temperatures are coming down or bit rather slowly but they're about where they should be now. and you know it's not been quite such smooth sailing elsewhere. nigeria, case in point, still flooding in much of the country and you see the shower that far north. now this is just a view of one small area, but unfortunately,

forecast isn't brilliant. it's still raining in the surf. ah, ah ah, if the world has taught us anything, it's that we all need support. that includes, as hale won and exhaled to, to do banjo, they need help from the ground. support doesn't come any stronger than the s l samp teleport designed to protect and maintain our satellites from infrastructure to control. it never stops adding value as hale cent space to deliver your vision. oh, a

welcome back there with me. so he'll run the hall reminder of our top news stories, thousands of people in front of protesting and a nationwide strike. teachers walked off the job on tuesday. workers have also down tools and oil that lead to fuel shortages. ethiopian government says it's captured a strategic town of, she's a along with massa and cut him in the northern region. the foreign ministry says it's ready to work with humanitarian organizations to ensure aid is delivered to areas control by the cholera break in lab and is getting worse. 46 new cases have been reported in the past 24 hours and one person has died. now the disease has spread beyond syrian refugee counts where they have been at least 60 death an investigation of damages on nord stream gas pipelines in the baltic sea shows that leaks were caused by blasts danish police. a powerful explosions blew full

holes in the pipe and it's new at twin north stream to gas deliveries have been suspended since september forces from nato states to taking part in the alliances. and you will nuclear exercise. the drills who vol. 14 countries up to 60. i craft the alliance says they're not linked to world events, but they come during high nuclear tensions over the war and ukraine out there is defense editor alex topless has more. so nato and russia are running nuclear exercises this month, while no nuclear weapons will be transported or used. both sides will practice how to use them to attack targets in a variety of scenarios. these exercises have be scheduled for some time and nato. russia insisted that they're not connected to the war in ukraine. but moscow recently said, we'll consider using nuclear weapons it, russia, survival is threatened. it's exercise called graham or thunder. involves long range

missiles, in usually includes a missile being launched from an underground silo or nuclear submarine rushes issued notice to air crews known as no tams, and band commercial traffic from specific locations in seas to the north of the country. where these long range missiles are expected to fall. nato's exercise called inherit noon is based in belgium, in the north sea and of all 60 aircraft including b, 52 bombers, flying from dakota. in the us. both sides were closely monitor these maneuvers. nato is increasingly concerned that russia may use battlefield nuclear weapons in ukraine as its losses. mount. if prime minister lives trust is fighting to hold on to a job, how to reinforce to make a u turn on her economic policy. on monday, her new finance minister jeremy hunt said he was scrapping almost all previously announced. tax cuts, trusts held a cabinet meeting at downing street early on tuesday. she has been accused of running scared after she failed to address parliament and re simmons is in london.

he says, there are other major challenges ahead for the government list for us, sir. open the meeting. as you can imagine, one would expect a pretty grim atmosphere in that meeting and she said that it was at things moved too quickly and not enough detail was put into all of the measures taken. what moved on from there was an outlining by the chancellor. again, on what he was doing about saving money because something like $35000000000.00 have been saved so far by reversing all of less trust that it is. trust is tax cuts and other measures. and now he has to actually find many more $1000000000.00 to try to pay off the black hole to actually men that black hole of over spending and nothing is ruled out. he may clear that times are going to be really tough. the

essence of it is that the markets might be calm, but the political crisis with the prime minister's future at stake, and the popularity tanking of this government now seize labor with a li, the biggest lead in 25 years of 36 point lead. it suggested by one of the opinion polls recently, so there is more trouble ahead. this crisis is by no means over. in nigeria, the extent of flooding is becoming much clearer. more than 600 people are being killed and 1300000 displaced. it's the worst flooding in more than a decade, affecting $33.00 of the countries $36.00 states. now, some communities have been cut off, making it difficult for 8 to be delivered. maureen is forecast and official se floodwaters aren't expected to receive until the end of november. and it address has more from me and a guy in by alley state. one of the hardest hit areas. this is what

i regular or safe street here in the capital of by yourself. it looks like flooded and with vehicles and people trying to wade through the water to get to their respective destinations. and you see the water here is stagnant, perfect breeding ground for breakfast like mosquitoes. authorities are worried that in the next few days, they will see health emergencies because of the flooding. here in, by also state, the governor said the entire state is flooded and communities, in fact, more than 300 communities have been affected by the inundation across the state. the state itself is completely cut off from the rest of the country. now the government says the only access to other parts of nigeria is to find a ship that can go through all the atlantic to reach out of state for supplies to re scott. and we hear that stocks are really, really running out in markets and other places like promises. now,

one important factor, or one important point raised by the governor is that the water sources in, by also say, is contaminated and therefore water is not safe or drinking in the next few days, people will be running out of sleep drinking water. that's why he's falling on the international community and the nigerian government to quickly step in to restock supplies here in by also states currently bridges and mid to high was lincoln, the same with other parts of the country are completely cut off. we went to refugee camps, internally displaced process gap. people are struggling to find spaces, why they can lay their hits. families have been separated. food is in short supply . so this situation across the state and enable of stairs. we hear like parts of river state, which is also affected by this. yes, flood is also desperate. while luxurious, suffering, heavy rains, the horn of africa is facing one of its worst droughts in 40 years, at least 18000000 people. on the brink of starvation,

catherine sawyer reports are from toward commer county in northern kenya, a camille cup, a lawn has spent the better part of her morning looking for water at a village into car county. she and other women have dug shall welds, but these pools of water are getting dryer. the water is getting darcia and dangerous because of the alkaline levels. she's 7 months pregnant and every day it's becoming more difficult for her to walk the distance. my mother, mother yard and i getting idea, we have to dig deep to get water. our children get sick. often. some of the bull house provided by the government have run dry. some parts of broken down into government and other agencies are worried. they said they're facing a state of emergency. the population is currently been one, morehouse and the and that was the depth of the 100 will suffer and agree fun about

her beyond 5 meters in some areas. others actually are pursuing with us and the, for the population itself is actually the 1000000 because there is like new likelihood of optimal wars. there is a drought in much of the horn of africa. millions of people are on the brink of starvation. for rainy seasons, ha, field weather experts predict another field this year. oh is hard in community is resilient and proud. many of them have lost most of their livestock . now they have to rely on really food. on this day, they waited for hours in the sweltering hits for 8 politicians who had brought the food arrived late. evelyn was tired, thirsty, and hungry. people are receiving made beans and cooking oil. but this wood does not come often. and villages, or we are talking to say it's not even enough. children in the villages are more

norrish, many leave far from health centers. doctors at this government hospital say some children come when they already too weak to save them. so then after treatment within 2 months, over 200 percent come back. so these are the back of the village. the women finally get the cereals. they say the food is hardly enough, but at least it will keep the little ones alive as the parents figure out where they will get the next meal. catherine soy all to 0 to kind of county in northern kenya. john khatri is the country director for august. i'm in kenya. he says the situation is continually worsening. we are reaching a very deadly point because we are seeing a drought that has not been seen for the past 40 years. we are seeing the 4th

festival rain season fail. the 5th one as expected between october, november, december is equally likely to fail. but to 1400000 people cross the horn of the of, of africa in need of food. in food and water aid, without which we will start seek before day of the goes to the end. so there's a lot of household that are really living in from in lake conditions. and if we don't take prompt action, we are facing a very dire situation. so in may oxford estimated that one person was dying every 40 seconds from the ongoing food insecurity. and despite a lot of action that has already been taken to support households, we're going through the, the, the, the food crisis, the new number for just mind boggling. we're looking at one person day every 36 seconds from, from, from the food crisis. and this is likely to watson,

especially if they short trades fail. but also, if they don't, another international community does not step up to really support companies that are affected across, especially the 4 countries in the, the home of africa that is malia if appear. can you insulted on malaysia? has detained suspected operatives working for israel's intelligence agency? ma thought that accused of snatching a palestinian man's mas street and the capital column pool, and beating him as he was being driven to a house, florence louis has more from the relation capital. in a court in malaysia, 11 suspects are charged with abducting a palestinian man. in late september, a local media report said he was allegedly snatched from outside of the stall residences to building in quite a loophole. beaten and bundled into a waiting car. a friend he was with escaped and alerted the police. they eventually tracked down the abductors to a house on the outskirts of quite a loophole. and fleet, the palestinian malaysia can't take a home minister,

says officials i investigating claims massage was behind the abduction and interior ministry spokesman in garza. no doubt these ratings were involved in nor nadine was thinking heavy until meliss slightly under the the we could them and did those this new israeli crime against our people the way we think the militia authorities executed services for the great of, for a floating fiscal. nothing a tough developer, bobby, according to a local report, men believed to be israeli intelligence agents interrogated by captive in a video call on matters related to hamas. and it's, i'm doing the custom brigades. he was reportedly questioned about his experience in computer application development and hamas, the strength in developing software. the suspects are all malaysians. a counter terrorism expert says it's not unheard of for foreign intelligence agencies to recruit locals. well, i don't think it is a li,

exclusively they must have permitted or operation. i think it has been done by the other intelligent services to or we can see this thing happen across the world that whenever you're not capable of operating independently, especially if it is too obvious. that if you are present in certain location and it is easily being detected, then it is necessary for you to record the local i certain work on your behalf. this is not the 1st time massage is believe to carried out. an operation in malaysia in 2018 and palestinian electrical engineer was gunned down by 2 assailants on a motorbike as he was heading to a mosque in the capitol. his relatives and hamas had said they believed massage was behind the killing. the charge is well had denied thorns. louis al jazeera, quite a loophole. castle has lost its 1st solar power plants. now it's expected to become the largest in the world, covering the equivalent of $1400.00 football fields and some up in charge. it was

at the opening of their wants to expand its renewable energy as a step towards that it's launch. it's 1st not scale solar power plant, which is going to be generating $800.00 megawatts, about 10 percent of peak capacity here. and there. this is one of 3 power plants which are going to be coming up in the next few years. and the minister for energy says that they are on track to make sure that this country which relies on its exports of hydrocarbons and usage of hydrocarbons goes to words, greener sources. so a lot is going to actually become more efficient and cheaper at time. and maybe the most important for us element is to try and reduce the size of land the to need. you know, a couple of us scarcity of man is a very small country. and you can see this is a joint project as follows. them this is the 1st project, the 2nd project is already under construction. as i mentioned,

it under 75 up of energy on dusty cities. this will take us to 1600 and then we will see, you know, with time we will increase the 1800000 solar panels installed in this power plant are jointly operated by total energy div, a japanese firm and a consortium of battery investors. are the people behind it say that this is not just a p r exercise, but this keen energy will have a real impact on how people utilize energy. what is that just to greenwashing is because we shifted or strategy. the ambition of thought arlena jesus to become a merchant energy company, which means, or jazz. and it explicitly electricity from renewables is the 1st. i would say, will scale plant, but to 3. now, she's as built really great ambition. to build 35 gigawatts by 2025, we have already beat 16. and if the hoc in kitta it's a double mega. what sorts of sancho.
