9:00 pm
voiced the right guy with a hell 40 tom, tom basketball on al jazeera bollywood, a glamorous industry that attracts though seeking fame and fortune. i always told myself that sunday i'll be famous, but for some following their dreams can become a nightmare. i had asked in the 1st 10 days of my experience, i had to consult as i go dressed for the longest bollywood dreams on al jazeera. this is a region that is rapidly developing, but it's one also that is afflicted by conflict. political lupsi world. we try to balance the stories that good the bad, the abbey, and he's the people who allow us into their lives, dignity until money see, asked to tell their story. ah,
9:01 pm
this is al jazeera ah. hello. the whole rahman you're watching out. is there a news our life, my headquarters here in doha, coming up in the next 60 minutes. trade unionists including oil refinery work, has gotten strike and france causing anger amongst the public over fuel shortages. ukraine's president warns of a critical situation as more russian air strikes target major infrastructure. also i am, i did receive in one of nigeria on producing states in the niger delta that is completely cut off from the rest of the country. obviously, as you are struggling to bring in aid as quickly as possible, as the situation gets desperate, cement, manufacturer, lafarge admit sit paid armed groups in syria. it now faces
9:02 pm
a penalty worth hundreds of millions of dollars. and i am he to stammer to the sport. portugal suffer a big blow as the yoga jots are, is ruled out of the world cup plus rail. madrid's kareem bends. hima is named wolves based footballer on east tim phelan door nomination. ah, welcome to the program where you begin in france, where frustration over the rising cost of living has sparked and nationwide strike . people are demanding higher wages has been disruption in the public sector and transport system with teachers, bus drivers, and health care workers walking off the job. natasha butler has more from paris, fed up an angry transport and energy sector workers made a demonstration in paris to call for higher wages among them. we're all refinery staff. you've been on strike for a month to stand off with their bosses
9:03 pm
a total and now she has caused a fuel shortage in the country. the french governments attempt to end the blockade by forcing staff back to work or face penalties has inflamed tension. oh god, it's terrible. and rather than doing that, they should force companies to hand over their large profits to social organizations. i love the i love. what do you think the michael, the michael, your crohn is like thatcher. it's a policy of the bosses stuffing their faces while the workers are allowed crumbs. but we don't even get the crumbs. despite the turn out in the city, it wasn't the general strike that frances trade unions had called for. many sectors did not take part. but for the public, some disruption, some train and bus services were cancelled adding to the difficulties people already face to get around with been a challenging week for their call owners in france, many federal stations are still sort of fuel this pump here. doesn't have any pedal
9:04 pm
left her at all and even though the government has ordered some or refinery. so fact of the job, the situation so hasn't improved that much. was hungry over her. has your regular a work for car rental agency. it's been hard for us to refuel our vehicles. we have to spend a full day waiting to refill all tanks. the selection more, it's really hard at the moment. i spent nearly 5 days looking for petals on and it's tough because i need my car for work. my job inflations fueling discontent in france, but this political scientist says that the sort of unrest seen in the country during the yellow vest movement is unlikely. labor problem could over the when called after all, it's unlikely that we will see a large social movement emerge that would unite all workers because people all have different concerns to kimberly, among the working class. so it's hard for everyone to come together with the french president has urged an end to the refinery, blockade and opinion polls suggest a majority of french people now won't the same. but these protestors say they won't
9:05 pm
give up their fight until their demands are met. with sasha butler, al jazeera, paris and elizabeth meter. as a political columnist for the telegraph josefina from paris, always good to have you on the program is retired. and we can such demonstrations and pressure from unions yield the results. so such a disparate public really needs at the moment in france, i would say that 1st of all, what you see in the pictures, it's 2 separate things. you have demonstrations, you have about a 120000 people who march across from peacefully. and then you got those groups that come with different aims that do not belong to the demonstration, which the police know very well, belong to some tiny different groups. and they come some of them all the french equivalent and t fall, we call them the black block. and some others just come to lute and destroy things . and they all different. and they started in the past 22 decays. they started
9:06 pm
a pestering if you will, demonstrations, and these all unfortunate people get used to this. it's very unpleasant, it's very graphic, but it's not got to do with the fact that you got a number of people demonstration then from said what everybody in france has noticed. the cost of living is so high that ineffective people's incomes diminished . and that if they don't get something back upon me for the job that they do at a time when it's more difficult to find a workforce, they have a kind of leverage. indeed, i mean, when you have these sorts of demonstrations on these coal out by the unions to come out on to the streets, you might say they normally faced us when it comes to the union leadership. we don't, we tend to know who they are as such on, on the wider scale, but shall newmellon shoaf cold out the public on the left. it's groups called out the public to highlight the sort of financial economic woes that they appreciate. the public are experiencing, is there a lot at stake for politicians that come out for the public right now. compare
9:07 pm
compared to what the position is of the government. it's complicated because 1st of all, to commit all sure, even though it was a presidential candidate it and get to the 2nd round up could have been elected as an mg. he wasn't m p until the last election he decided not to run. and so what he's got, which is more than a party, but last little coalition, he grouped together for the legislative elections last you. and after the presidential election, a number of left wing policies which were in disarray. and, but the most important full says his own faulty le holsen's mias, which is hob left. you could compare it to the journey, corbin's labor and the these thought this thought is sort of trying to exist with a leader who is not in parliament. then who could keeps on saying that the insurrection all forces? i don't think humans violently, but he certainly means that as long as the pressure in the street, he can have a political in foods. the question is whether the rest of the left was thought for
9:08 pm
some do. don't people are very scared. the more people are perfectly well that there's a hardship ahead of us that a heating is very much more expensive that prices of everything ohio because just logistics. so it's not necessarily a situation that becomes in the us a so much troublesome as it would be when people felt more sure of themselves. and just briefly, the problem continues on the demonstrations continue. how much a problem does this become for the president, the longer they continue the big of the problem? well, the president has a problem anyway, because the president does not have a majority in the house. he's in a position of weakness. so far he has and if you read a couple of weeks, he's got to pass his budget. he very much feels that he will not get himself. he can't get a majority with his allies, what he needs all the privilege of the concern you've central. right. and piece to
9:09 pm
vote with him, and of course the, the left will vote against him. it all hangs on the national ronnie, money, no penalty if they also go to the budget and say and say this is the best you can do. he saved, but he's got the real problem that he'd be saved by hauled right. and if he doesn't have the right to run hard right to help, it may very well be bound. he will drum the up, the, the next year's budget where the procedure that enables you to, to part of the financial goal a without a vote in the house. but then you have to have a vote of confidence in your government. nobody knows whether his prime minister would been when a vote of confidence, lots of complications are in french politics aren't on the ground in the public arena, always could have your insight and elizabeth mac, joining us from paris. thank you. he strikes on ukraine's capital of killed, at least 3 people. ukrainian officials say 3 missiles with a pound for 17 keith. russia is striking critical infrastructure across the country
9:10 pm
and they're all reports of attacks and the cities of denny pro. and is it to my knowledge on june has more from cleave another fresh barrage 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 sites in the destiny and ski 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 t vitaly 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 on ski, 3 people were killed. they were all employed by that power plant. also there were strikes that happened in july to mirror that the city neighboring kiva where water
9:11 pm
and electricity is out. there's also. busy strikes that 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 on ski district. we were out there a little bit earlier. 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. germany, cybersecurity chief, has been sacked over alleged ties to russian intelligence services, his dismissal, all his intense speculation ever since a popular tv show made the accusation in any october tomblin came humble from berlin. this is a very curious situation. the german government finds itself in, in which the man who has been running the cybersecurity agency of germany for several years has been required to vacate his position on a shown bomb,
9:12 pm
accused of links to the russian security services. we know that the minister, the interior minister, nancy fizzer, wanted him gone a week ago. he is now out of office. the accusations against him are that a firm that he used to be in charge of was linked to the russian security services . and that's in some way he has been involved in conversations with people who themselves have been linked to the russian security services. what makes this more complicated is the fact that mr. sharon von referred himself to a disciplinary procedure himself and wanted to know what the allegations against him. ah, while he is now out of position. but it is interesting that other political parties, the green party, the christian democrats, are asking questions of the german interior minister as to why she has taken the action she has taken. and it is worth making. the point here that many people have said that they believed mister sure, almost doing a relatively good job. it appears as though rather like caesar's wife,
9:13 pm
that he must be above suspicion above guilt. and it is said, the ministry has said that they believe that the in order for the people working at the cybersecurity agency to be able to be neutral and independent, mr. shone bomb, had to leave his job. certainly that's the view being put across by the interior minister investigation of damages on lord stream gas pipelines and the baltic sea shows that leaks were caused by blasts. danish police say powerful explosions, blew for holes the pipe, and it's new or twin. nordstrom to gas deliveries have been suspended since september, ma'am at val is in moscow. he has the latest reaction from the kremlin spokesman dmitri pasco. he said that russia is a co owner of these pipelines and has the right to be included, but the europeans have made sure not to include russia, not allow it, not allow russia to have some share of that. you know, of that investigation? he said, you know, they also even, you know, try to korea,
9:14 pm
get off the results and the findings to suit their own narrative and to leave the blame or russia. but he said, that's absurd because russia has its own intelligence information about this. and they indicate quite the opposite things and russia has been, his interests have been damaged. and you know, logic there indicates that, you know, someone else has been behind this act of sabotage which here she's also described as an act of terrorism against its own interests. so they go by and more, more fox are revealed about this. russians get more and more frustrated at the fact that they are still denied access to this investigation. and being there to see for their own eyes and make, make their own decision about this. and he's basically, you know, they're hinting that whatever is all the p as a now, if about this, but she's not going to accept it. i'll be happy with it until russia itself is
9:15 pm
included forces from native state. so taking part in the alliances annual nuclear exercise. now the drills own bo 14 countries and up to 60 craft. nato says that linked to world events, but they do come during heightened tensions over the war and ukraine. of there is defense editor and it's good topless has more. both 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 been scheduled for some time and nato . russia insisted that they're not connected to the war in ukraine. but moscow recently said it will consider using nuclear weapons in russia. survival is threatened. it's exercise called graham or thunder, involves long range missiles and usually includes a missile being launched from an underground silo or nuclear submarine rushes issued notice, the air crews known as no thames and band commercial traffic from specific
9:16 pm
locations in seas to the north of the country. where these long range missiles are expected to fall. nato's exercise called inherent 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 french cement, manufacture, lafarge, has pleaded guilty to paying armed groups in syria. it allows a say penalty worth almost $800000000.00. the company was charged for the u. s. court and it admitted that it paid i sold while running a factory in northern syria. it handed over millions of $1.20 to $14.00, even as the group carried out. high profile executions. all still ahead here. all the use, our parts of tenure that facing a state of emergency will tell you about the battle for survival as the drought
9:17 pm
continued. and we'll have you, chancellor, on the fresh economic plan say british prime minister list trust. we're not the latest from london. and it's for the latest from the t 20 cricket world. copied australia ah militia has detained suspected operatives working for israel's intelligence agency . ma sat, the accused of snatching a palestinian man from a street in kuala lumpur. and beating him as he was being driven to a house. phone slew has more 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 star residences to building in quality, beaten and bundled into a rating car. a friend he was with escaped and alerted the police. they eventually
9:18 pm
tied down the abductors to a house on the outskirts of quite a loophole. and fleet, the palestinian malaysia's can't take. a home minister says officials are investigating claims most sought was behind the abduction and interior ministry spokesman and gaza. at no doubt the israelis were involved. no man or nadine was thinking how the until the mother slightly under the the we can do the dose. this new is are in a crime against our people. that what we think the militia authorities and security services for the great of 1st project is coming up in terms of in a toughie, 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 casa 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
9:19 pm
recruit locals. well, i don't think it is only exclusively they must have permitted operation. i think it has been done by the other intelligent services to and 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 been 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 florence louis al jazeera, while the lou, the jury is counting the cost of devastating floods. more than 600 people have been
9:20 pm
killed and 1300000 displaced is the worse flooding and more than a decade affecting 33 of the countries 36 states. some communities have been cut off, making it difficult for 8 groups to reach them. warren is forecast and officials say, flood waters are expected to recede until the end of november. and the address has more from nga in by elsa stage. one of the hardest hit areas. this is what i regular or safe street here in the capital of biased. 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, or forges 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,
9:21 pm
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 both will be 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 but also say is contaminated and therefore water is not safe for drinking. in the next few days, people will be running out of say, 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 leave their hits. families have been separated. food is in short
9:22 pm
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. the british prime minister let's trust his fighting to hold on to her job after being forced to make a huge head on her economic policy. on monday, her new finance minister jeremy hunt said he was scrapping almost all previously and our current tax cuts trust held a cabinet meeting downing street earlier on tuesday though she has been accused of running scared after she failed to address parliament and re 7th month and he says that i made a change of the head for the government list for us. so open the meeting. as you can imagine, one would expect a pretty grim atmosphere in that meets again. 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
9:23 pm
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 his 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 but 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 sees labor with a li, the biggest lead in 25 years of 36 point lead. it suggested by
9:24 pm
one of the opinion polls recently, so there is more trouble ahead. this crisis is by no means over well outside of the so called westminster bubble, but his voters are facing mounting costs. a many, a blaming the new prime minister turn hole spoke to people in waltham. sto in east london. hannah fowl, 3 now handed out. it's been just a few weeks since new prime minister least trust promised low taxes and economic growth. and absolute disaster wise would have thought about these are those on the process of the pan, there is absolutely terrible side the price of produce is gone. put a roof, get any here. the transport fight is particularly any wonder so dislike. that's all right. thank you very much. events have moved so fast in westminster that a new finance minister is now raising taxes and promising public sector cuts while the prime minister clings to her job. well, i think i do some believable and it just gets worse and worse and less trust just
9:25 pm
got to go to see a way out. yeah. no easy way out. it's just going to be a tough when i was going to be a tough 2023 for the whole population. i think i to wonder about the children of the country in the future. where is it going to, and then you worry about the people that haven't got very much to start with. the market fall out from trust is failed growth plan. st. interest rates soaring with fast rising mortgage rates, heating, renters and home buyers. everyone's frustrated to everyone stress. i think everyone's really feeling the increase in everything. crates in the, the interest rates in a market. it was never seen and handled a thing from the basis that we've never seen before. but the rental market rental increase in price. if the rank people taste,
9:26 pm
find some way, just having to discipline people and it's been 6 weeks since far is johnson gave way to list trust as prime minister, followed quickly by the death of the queen. and now a dramatic change in the nation's economic outlook. people can be forgiven her feeling a little shell shocked. what it seems. many voters cant forgive. is the government . would you go over them at the next at all? no, not. not at all. no, definitely wouldn't i lost so. and would you vote conservative again, a change from weight and perhaps the hottest bet among u. k. bookmakers right now is not the direction of the pound, but whether the prime minister can last longer in office than the 9 day shelf life of a lettuce. joan, a whole al jazeera waltham stove market. that with european where to grind rebel say they've lost the city of sharaya to government forces. with european foreign
9:27 pm
ministry says it's ready to work with humanitarian organizations to ensure aid is delivered to areas controlled by. it saw me fighting between pro government forces, antigua and rebels resumed in august. both sides accuse each other of breaking a 5 month truce in spokesman. stuff into damage says the situation is particularly grave. the civilians in ethiopia were worried about the the impact on men, women, and children were worried about the impact on the humanitarian situation. i mean, already 2 and a half 1000000 people have been displaced within a g gray, a horror, and a far this compounds with this in addition to humanitarian challenges in other parts of the fee of ethiopia. but you know, i was, i also recall the deputy secretary general's very vivid description of the violence against women that she's, you know,
9:28 pm
that as she was able to get 1st hand accounts from when she visited the region, speaking to women. it is clear that this sort of action is very likely continuing, and the fighting may only even make it worse. kennedy into that i is the member of the ethiopian parliament. and in the system, professor of that is out of the university. he says the country's government is committed to defending is territorial integrity. on august 24, it was the war was connected by the people. it said that it is very much committed . it was, you know, that the plaintiffs had expanded into the market and our quality, and then it should be funded land. it should be friends with particular reference to why it's just conducting and defending the regular position of till the money, the very open in a 4 piece deadlock to put into to put into the process. but with any governmental, as you can understand, that it was violated international, a violation by other parties into the somebody so yeah. so it's not defending the
9:29 pm
total, you know, the entire territory integrity of ethiopia. that is the point, you know, why is it defending on that side is still committed enough to end the war for a peaceful way. it didn't close the door for ending the conflict. according to my understanding is an internal affair between the federal government and the pin. so, you know, it's frequent that about no hearing from the side is that a parents are involved. but according to my understanding, this is intended to make the most it to make it international rather than and if you're an affair than to give it attention from the international community. my understanding is colleen, is that based on my system and what i'm going to pop up is between the what is a bit when the federal government in there that that the site before me, this kind of thing to happen due to the fact that we couldn't control the lower parts of each, particularly that to get out regions well still had hail louisa. the iranian government is fine to co criticism with an internet shut down, but business, so to say it's hurting that bottom line. also. the 1st bill i will send the
9:30 pm
congress re to codify robi way us present. joe biden purpose is to protect abortion wise ahead of the mid term elections and the fee for work up 5 years on the move or on the world will tell you where it is in schools. 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 produce 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 thunderstorms, which is produced like 5 times the average rainfall in line occur in cyprus,
9:31 pm
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 as 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 far north of afghanistan and pakistan. but through iran and the rayburn producers generally speaking a fine picture now as though shower, that much cloud has not much wind. temperatures are coming down all bit rather slowly, but that 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 rachelle 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 south. ah,
9:32 pm
it's time for a memorable holiday with pegasus. it's time for turkey. set sail for new discoveries. enjoy. have new experiences. hit the shops, make wonderful memories. travel to turkey with pegasus, and with direct whites to stand bowl and tribes a book your ticket now for a memorable holiday. c y p g. yes. for our best prices with
9:33 pm
blue a book about your field there with me. the whole, rob, the reminder of all top news stories, thousands of people in front of protesting in a nationwide strike. teachers walked off the job on tuesday. the workers also down tools and oil that goes to fuel shortages for strikes on ukraine's capital of killed. at least 3 people. ukrainian officials say 3 missiles have a power facility in key. russia has been striking critical infrastructure across the country and discipline manufacturer, lafarge. admit that paid armed groups in there, it may not face a penalty with hundreds of millions of dollars. let's get more of the legal
9:34 pm
implications of this case involving lafond to be cognitive, international, human rights law choice. we know from london, mr. kevin, always nice to have you on the program. this is a huge precedent. a huge pay out said to get very strong message about accountability. absolutely, i, although it's obviously a plea agreement between the large executives in the department of justice. it is hugely significant. and when we look at the amounts, the find that has been paid or will have to be paid in excess of $700000000.00. so i think that represents the criminal oxy that was encountered in this case where, where we thought was use a paying significant amount of money to, to, to and see the designated as terrorist groups. and so i think one of the takeaways
9:35 pm
from this is it shows the corporate liability for engage prime to this concert is choose. so if the us courts are finding them for potentially hurting us lives, that's how they put a defined us lies. could other countries do the same to support their nationals or service men and women where, where to sort of the legal line stop, so to speak? i think the legal lines. so, i mean, it's always a question of whether there is the evidence to, to bring charges against corporate entities or, or individuals for engaging in international crimes. i think in this particular case, i think as a department of justice today is it shows the, the interplay between corporate liability and terrorism. when you have a corporate and see which is effectively financing terrorist activities. and there was up to $6000000.00 that were paid by the vouch, through intimate treaties to,
9:36 pm
to the, to terrorist groups. and other states of course, can come forward and should come forward and ensure that those core entities that are engaging and facilitating crimes. whether we see in syria yet, and ukraine, wherever we sit, there is a responsibility to hold all those individual counseling, corporate liabilities. one thing which has been lacking in holding individuals account for, for, for engaging in reality, in conflict and so. so think it is important, very important. it's already put in recent days. we've seen the u. s. administration war and american companies about exporting technology to china that may assist that you might say human rights issues. i'm thinking about the week is here and they would find all companies need a special license. it's sort of a shot across the bows, isn't it for companies who might think about working in countries where human
9:37 pm
rights is questionable? absolutely, and we've seen cases of executives being charged with providing technology to, to around previously as part of that new program. so we, we have seen individuals executives being charged with with facilitating crimes. but i think one of the things that we also need to look at the syria context is as we look at reconstruction, there are corporations that are effectively benefiting from conflict. and so it is important to, to continue to, to send that message. is that whether you are an individual, corporation or state, you will be held accountable for crimes at this time. so absolutely, it is something that we need to to work harder on, but it is something which i think a number of states are focusing on. and we are seeing, obviously, through the us
9:38 pm
a particular drive in the, in the area selling interesting judgment. tammy cap been always good to speak to. thanks for joining us from london. thank you very much. now, the united nation says the 1st color outbreak to hit lebanon in nearly 3 decades is getting worse. infections almost doubled in the last 24 hours to $893.00 people have died. cynical is in the car, refugee camp in northern lebanon, where the 1st cases were detected. there's 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

9:42 pm
kimberly how kit georgina from washington d. c. so why is president biden pushing this issue to the forefront to the mid term campaign regardless of all the other issues america was facing as well? well, the president is luring voters, particularly democratic voters to the polls because he wants to not only codify the protections that were overturned by the supreme court. recently that had been the law of the land for a half century in the united states. because he believed that this will rally democratic voters to the polls. and the reason that he wants that to happen is because right now in the united states, there at least 16 states and potentially more where women do not have the ability to get an abortion. and this concerns not only the president, but many female voters and a male voters as well. and doctors and nurses who believe that this is somewhat confusing and is not leading to the kind of health care that americans are

9:44 pm
ever so slightly for the house of representatives. the senate is looking like a tossup because right now the number one issue for americans is inflation. and that is what this president is being hammered on right now. that is what his republican opponents are attacking him on. so this is what this white house is. banking on will galvanized democratic voters, particularly women and younger voters. they believe this is what as the president sells this message is traveling cross country will get the democratic voters out to the polls who we should point out historically, often stay home during these congressional mid term elections. that's a problem for this president data for the moment. thanks very much. kimberly how can i force in washington dc? the reading government has restricted the incident to weeks as it tries to stop nationwide protests, but disruptions are coming at a financial cost as businesses feel the impact muscle. so the reports not from toronto,
