7:00 am
up front on al jazeera, we know what's happening in our region. we know how to get to places that others can on. i want to don't fear guy by the police on purpose fires instead of going on with the way that you tell the story is what can make a difference. ah, miss baker. i am a fighter and i am still clinging on you get prime minister less trust loses home secretary and some in a policy, a keys of manhandling m p. 's inside parliament. ah, i money to buy this is out there. life and so or so coming up, rushes,
7:01 am
president vladimir pierson, imposes marshal lloyd for attics, regents and ukraine as key pass, a major offensive on castle 1000000. alcohol. people are affected by flooding in nigeria with v as shortages of food and fuel. and gazing at the stars we hear from an astronomer about the stunning new pictures from the james web space telescope. ah and i welcome aboard since prime minister liz trots has lost a 2nd senior cabinet minister in just a week home secretary swell. a braverman was forced to quit for using a private e mail account the government business. but she made stinging criticisms of trust in her resignation letter. and of course, a week ago, the former finance minister was fired off to his new budget plans caused market
7:02 am
turmoil. the calles and you turns mean less for us is fighting to save her job and her government or challenge reports. she's become the shortest serving home secretary since world war 2. so when a braverman has quits saying he broke rules by sending an official document from her personal e mail account, but her resignation letter hints at the dysfunction at the heart of list trust is government. it is obvious we're going through eci multi was time she said, i have concerns about the direction of this government and perhaps a dig at the prime ministers leadership style pretending we haven't made mistakes, carrying on as if everyone can't see that. we've made them and hoping things will magically come right. is not serious politics. i have made a mistake. i accept responsibility. i resign. a replacement is ground chaps. a recent critic of lives trotter's policies and another sign that it's new chancellor . jeremy hunt, who holds much of the real power in downing street like separate the gun on this
7:03 am
difficult period is jeremy hump said i when he was pointed on on friday. that nonetheless means it's doubly important to ensure that we are doing absolutely everything to in the basic areas. jenny hung on her a great job and settling on the issues related to that many budget the aftermath of this truck is bought september 23rd, many budget has left her twisting. amidst the wreckage of her unfunded tax cuts, the u. k. economy and her political future. i thought the list here, $45.00 pay tax cop gone. yeah. corporation tax got go. 20 pay tax. got gone to year, energy, fries, gong, tax, free shopping, door, economic credibility. ah, aunt, i suppose. best friend, the former chancellor. he's gone. well, they're all gone. so why she's still here. miss baker.
7:04 am
i am a fighter and not the problem is many of her own, m. p. 's might secretly be wishing he was a bit more of a quitter. it would save them the headache of ousting their 2nd prime minister in less than 6 months poles, the screaming of the conservative party that they at least trust are profoundly unpopular. victorian peas haven't worked out yet. what to do about it. i think it's absolutely clear that this class is not going to leave the good part in the next gen election. the question is, how soon the end comes. and frankly, it would have already happened if the party come with a mechanism to make sure they could replace it with somebody who is palatable to the m p. 's. and from the who could unite all sides of the party, have not been able to do that. so she still left new figures show inflation for the year to september is 10 point one percent economic woes. many of them of the
7:05 am
government's own making continue to mount. and so when a brave man's departure has more chaos to an executive, and a party that seems increasingly unable to govern, will reach islands out his era or jeremy kobus is a former leader, the british labor party speaking to al jazeera earlier, he said, list trust the government is in shambles. it's a government in complete chaos where from one moment another you don't even know who the ministers are charged. the secular change several times the home secretary has just been replaced and the prime ministers apparently had a very large number of letters sent in by conservative m. p. 's, who can decide her future saying they want her to go. so it is a government in chaos, but i'd prefer to look slightly beyond the parliamentary theatre that is going on.
7:06 am
now, the reality is that inequality in britain is deeper than ever before. poverty, homelessness, hunger are increasing amongst poorest people. and the government has refused to say whether it will even raise social security benefits in line with inflation. and there are big wage disputes going on in all the major industries. and so there is a social cohesion dimension to this. and so i think we should realize that what the government is actually is fighting to address these issues. i don't think they're very confident at all because when court and proposed his tax cuts for the high earners, he also said this was going to be paid for by borrowing. well, nobody would seriously put that forward as a sensible or intelligent policy that you borrow in order to create greater inequality, even the wealthiest thought this was just embarrassing. and so the question of
7:07 am
sense and competence is not there. clearly, markets have not much confidence in this government. i would prefer this government to be judged on its appalling treatment of the worst, often the poorest within our society. they are not pleasing anybody at the present time, and i can't think that this trust is going to last very long as prime minister let's trust is going off is a very short time. she seems to have enormous difficulty in keeping ministers in office. never mind gaining confidence of the public or anybody else. i suspect 2 days of pretty number, i would say that her appointment is of jeremy hunt is char seeks jack or something . she may rue the day because i'm quite confident that at some point he will be challenging her to be prime minister. and it might be very so on the chaos for the government didn't end with braverman resignation. later on wednesday,
7:08 am
they were allegations of bullying and man handling against some conservative m. p. during a vote on fracking, the opposition motion to banned. the activity was defeated, but some ruling party in peace, abstained. conservative leadership had ruled the vote would be a confidence nation in the continent on to the rights to with russian president vladimir putin has announced his imposing marsal law in the full regions. moscow has claimed it amex from ukraine. it comes off to a string of military defeats for russian troops this month. and val reports from moscow. president vladimir, put in his word, signalled a new phase of russia's war in ukraine, formalizing what he said was pre existing military rule in the next regions of vignettes clue. hands with the police on each of them. yeah, pretty much i signed a decree on the introduction of marshal in these 4 entities of the russian
7:09 am
federation. it will be immediately sent to the federation council for approval of putting on for tablets, local army headquarters, and a special coordination council in the region. under the leadership of russia's prime minister, the decree comes among the threats of a new offensive by the ukrainian armed forces and then extensive washing operation to move tens of thousands of people from her son to the southern bank of the me probably for. they are told it's to protect them from ukrainian shelling. but it was, it was, it was not as new that is going to any recognition that the piece will population that charge us to the left lank on the entrance to the region. it's close 4 or 7 beers through all directions and crosses and dash and low. the decree means the waste and can now become compulsory and your policies can impose any measures they see fit, including restricting public life,
7:10 am
or forcing people to join the army. the villian industries and services can also be used for military purposes. so i'm the new commander of rational peroration in ukraine, said gay, sort of, you can acknowledge the situation is difficult for russian forces and said what he called painful measures might be required for lawson ami, how suffered major defeats in eastern i'm southern ukraine since early september. it's not clear what undeclared measures, the new phase might include in terms of tactics or types of weapons. the russia, my deploy to reverse those defeats had gone. i'll just sierra moscow. while years president joe biden says patients, marsh law degree is an attempt to intimidate ukrainian citizens. i think the latimer prudent finds himself in an incredibly difficult position.
7:11 am
and what reflects to me is seems his only tool available to him is to brutalize individual citizens in ukraine. ukraine services to try to intimidate them into capitulating. they're not going to do the un security council has disgust alleged iranian om sales to russia. ukraine accuses moscow using iranian drones to carry out recent attacks. but iran denies selling the weapons and russia denies using them to promote to get his a james base reports from the un in new york. sir, on the streets of kiva, early this week is once again, the ukrainian capital comes under attack by so called suicide drones. officially, both russia and iran say iranian drones and not being used in the aerial bombing campaign. but photographic evidence seems to contradict that. these pictures
7:12 am
experts say show a shaheed, 136, a drone, only manufactured by iran that is lethal, but also relatively cheap, costing about $20000.00 apiece. the u. k. u. s. and france, believe the sale of a rainy and drones in their use and ukraine is a breach resolution $2231.00 which endorsed the 2015 iran nuclear deal. we want to clarify the situation on this use of iranian drones. in the ukraine owner. it seems to be crystal clear that it's a violation of resolution $20.00 to $31.00, endorsing the distribution, the j c. p away or iran nuclear deal between iran and the so called p 5 plus one. the u. s. u k, france, germany, russia and china includes a provision for something called snap back. if iran is not complying, any other participating nation can force all the previous un sanctions to snap back
7:13 am
into place. but one experts as that. so measure western nations will be reluctant to take now the risk of snapping back sanctions over an issue that is not directly related to iran's nuclear program. or is that iran has threatened that it would not only withdraw from the nuclear deal. it would also withdraw from the non proliferation treaty. and of course, the last country that did that was north korea in 2003. and we know how that story ended. ukraine is recovered drones that have been shot down and is written to the you and urging that inspection teams are now sent to examine them. but russia's deputy ambassador strongly objected to that idea. we hold that the secretariat and the secretary general himself will not again violate the decisions of the union un security council and will not go beyond their technical mandate and will abstain from engaging in early any legitimate investigation. otherwise we'll, we'll have to reassess our collaboration with them. he wouldn't elaborate on that
7:14 am
somewhat ominous warning and didn't completely rule out to link with the deal to export ukrainian grain which was agreed last summer and has to be extended within the next month. james bay's al jazeera at the united nations. still head on out, is there an keeping a close eye in beijing? we'll take a look at china's network of states cyber surveillance. ah, anticipation is rising. and so is the atmosphere a you read away, sponsored my cattle aways. hello. the weather is cooling down nicely. now across much of the middle east lassie. dry lots of hazy sunshine coming through temperatures here in dough harm into the mid thirties. so some pleasant sunshine over the coming days, not quite a pleasant further north. just up towards the black sea towards georgia,
7:15 am
some heavier burst to ryan around the caucasus slipping a little farther south was across that eastern side of the med through the levant. noticed some of that where to weather even getting into northern parts of saudi arabia, south of that, it stays fine and drive with plenty of sunshine, dry to into northern parts of africa. will look what a brisk when fading water, 2 showers into the far north of libya over the next day or so, but nothing too much to speak of. northern aries of egypt could catch share as well . so it was a sign i peninsula morocco, algeria dry and settle, pushed back down into west africa, and we have still got that chain of storms around southern parts of west africa still some very heavy right in the forecasting to southern parts of nigeria, easing cross into commer ruined joining up the heavy right that we are now seeing coming in across sug, a bomb pushing into the democratic republic of congo, sublime peace. i was too into uganda, south of that. it is generally dry for the time being. well, we will see increasing cloud and rain coming in too much of south africa to with
7:16 am
sponsored by cats on a ways jumping to the street when no topic is off the table. i don't think that anybody should be borne to privilege to the president of the day. we are the subjects of little family plus one person's opinion, but what's yours? amplify your voice. the judicial system in mexico is incredibly weak and it is not just corruption where a global audience becomes a global community. the scariest part of this moment in my country is this toys for a more weapon. the st. oh, now j 0. ah oh, look back, you're watching al jazeera mind if our top story is this,
7:17 am
our person's prime minister list trust. this funny thing to keep a job after losing a 2nd top cabinet minister in just under a week home secretary swell at braverman, resigned, allegedly for violating the ministerial code. last week have finance minister was psyched. russian president vladimir putin is imposing moscow law in the full ukrainian regions annexed by moscow. comes off the string of military defeats from moscow and ukraine. this moment the un security council has discussed, alleged iranian arm sales to russia. ukraine keys is most cove using iranian drones to carry out the tags. iran denies selling the weapons and russia denies using them . meanwhile, russian strikes and the rest if ukraine continued on wednesday, march um june has more from keith. several missiles and drones were shot down in different parts of the country. let's start here in,
7:18 am
keep the keep region where we're told that 5 missiles were shot down over. keith were also told that in the charity he region, that's in the north neighboring bell ruse, that there were 2 missiles that were shot down. and as a result of those missiles that were shot down, there were $23.00 injuries rather in the chair. and he region, as far as it is strikes that happened a, there was critical infrastructure hit ukrainian officials say by missiles in the yvonne or from kiosk region that's in western ukraine. were told that a thermal power plant was hit, that there had been quite a large fire as a result in that that fire has now been extinguished. also were told critical infrastructure was hit in the the snit see a region that's in central ukraine. it's next to the keep region. the fragility of life that people are dealing with here, things can change at an instant. nobody quite knows when those air raid sirens are going to go off when they're gonna have to go to shelters. when it happens, they calmly collect themselves, they go to the shelters,
7:19 am
and then they emerge when it's safe. again, the people are very concerned that these strikes, whether by missiles or by drones, will continue in the days ahead. the week long chinese communist party congress is underway in beijing and the government censorship system is on. hi, i let the countries most popular messaging are we chat has reportedly blocked. thousands of accounts of images were pasted as a protest in beijing last week. but as a jane brown reports, the app is just one part of china's vast surveillance network. china is the all seeing and listening state surveillance cameras are increasingly fitted with artificial intelligence, including facial and iris recognition technology, meaning pictures can be analyzed in real time. today the average chinese citizen spends nearly every waking moment under the watchful eye of this state says the
7:20 am
cold water of a new book. there are more than 400000000 cameras, surveillance cameras in china. they're close to 1000000000 smartphones rattling around people's pockets in person that the communist party can access during the often target and rule of chairman melt, say don't people were compelled to read his little red book and eye clinic work that contained his observations. but china's current leader has much more an app and at the promotes sheeting thing, thought, just one of the many technological tools that help create a culture of personality around president she as well as strengthening ideological control over the ruling communist parties, 100000000 members. the congress party believes that they have enough data and they combine with the right tools, taken essentially predict human behavior and molded to a degree that they can engineer a perfect society. right? and this is a, you know, this is a sort of future society in which there are no dissidence. the government says it's
7:21 am
surveillance. network helps maintain order and reduce crime. it's co opted some of the countries biggest tech companies to track phones, monitor online purchases and decode messages. certainly with the advent of new technologies and chinese companies becoming giants and in areas surveillance technology, for example, a facial recognition. chinese certainly have used that the ccp had these that trans advantage and implemented that in china. cobit 19 brought even more surveillance for most people everyday life like taking a boss or entering a restaurant hangs on the color of a health code on a smartphone. but already, evidence has emerged that some local government officials have been using the app as a tool of social control. adrian brown al jazeera cut off

7:27 am
with the palestinian authority has led to many people supporting them. despite the growing is williams diction. it's sort of action the ribbon would give legitimacy and gives support to i mean, group to any burleson, i mean faction of the one that may come out and show that resilience that we missed for so so, so many, many, many, many years there was negotiations and promises of independence and statehood have been going on for decades, and that means baby alene, and her fellow palestinians could be looking at a lifetime of wakeman. he deborah he elijah's eda, the occupied west many, many. another 15 people have died in the latest uganda and outbreak of the boulevard in the past 2 weeks, bringing the total number of deaths up to 40 for the president. your wedding was 70,

7:29 am
a very narrow window. now to prevent genocide, the james web space telescope has captured the most detailed images, yet of so called pillars of creation formation. these are dense clouds of gas and dust and the eagle nebula our milky way galaxy babel space telescope, 1st captain image of the formation back in 1995. don't. pitts is the chief astronomer and planetarium programs director at the franklin institute science museum. he spoke to us about how the james web telescope is breaking new ground. well, 1st of all, these images are truly magnificent. you can see that they're gorgeous. when we look at these images, what we're seeing is view of the pillars of creation that is really unprecedented because what we're seeing are thousands more stars in these images than were shown in the hubble space telescope images and the unique capability of james web space
7:30 am
telescope is that it can pull back of the veil of dust and gas, allowing us to see the interior portions of these nebulae like we've never been able to see them before. they are 7000 light years away from us. so the light we see tonight is shows us how they appear at 7000 years ago. they will not look like this. now they will have evolved. and the reason why is because the bright stars that are within these gas class, the young hot, energetic stars are actually blasting ultraviolet radiation at the clouds of dust and gas from which they are born. and they reshape re scope those clouds of gas. so if we go out there today, they will not look like we see them in these images. ah, i'm on the inside with a headlines on al jazeera versus prime minister liz trough has lost a 2nd top cabinet minister just under a week home sex race.
