this is al jazeera ah hello, it is great to have you with us today. i'm several venue. this is the news. our live from doha. coming up in the show, former u. k. finance minister richey sumac analysis. he is standing to replace liz trust as prime minister, consolidating power. finance. changing painting is appointed communist party leader for a 3rd term in the face of rising tensions with the western powers. at least 3 people have been killed during the attack and attack in the somali port city of kiss maya . a wide spread power outages across ukraine, after more russian missiles target energy facilities and in sport with $28.00 days to go until the world cup players tried to hit it just the right time to force
4:02 pm
their way onto the plane. the tar ah. to restore this news hour in the united kingdom, where a former chancellor richie soon act has now officially announced that he will run to become the next prime minister. candidates hoping to enter this door, number 10 downing street have just a day left to gather the support of a 100 m. p. 's. former prime minister boris johnson is expected to be so next main challenger, but he's yet to announce his candidacy. he met soon act for talks on saturday. italy's by british media suggest that sonic has a clear lead in the number of m. p. 's backing him. however, johnson's backers and says that he does have enough to run senior cabinet member of penny morton for her part has also declared she is running. it is unclear at this stage if she has enough support to even enter the race. i'm not sharing my campus in data with the with the others. i am very confident about the progress we're
4:03 pm
making and i will say to you that i am in this to win it. i think it's important for our party. we have a contest. i am very confident about our numbers and it's i, the reason why i'm doing this is because i think i am best place to bring the party together. this stephanie decker is live for us in london following all of this. so stephanie, should we be thinking of sumac as the front runner here? i think at this point in time a both then bars johnson, even though he hasn't yet thrown his name into the ring, are seen as potential contenders? yes, the numbers perhaps more and more. she soon acts favor, but if forrest johnson gets the 100 threshold and some report to saying that he's actually struggling to do so. but let's wait and see if he does get that. then perhaps embarrass jones's favor will be the actual vote by the party membership,
4:04 pm
which it will go to if 2 contenders get put forward. and then we'll know by friday who are prime minister is if we only have one person. if let's say, hypothetically speaking bars, johnson says he will not run then and if for the pending order doesn't get the numbers. if we just have one present in 24 hours, exactly 24 hours from now, cyril to p. m. tomorrow we will know who the prime minister will be either way by tomorrow in 24 hours we will know who the contenders are. at the moment we're still in a dripping game of particular tory members. backing either bar is johnson or wishes soon act saying this is the man for the job. no, this is the man for the job. so it is still a waiting game as to what the picture is going to look like, and who could potentially be the next prime minister. ok, and what happens next then? so again, we're gonna have to wait and see tomorrow 2 pm. we're going to know the picture, do we only have one candidate? do we potentially have 3? then if it's 3,
4:05 pm
then it's the members of parliament that will whittle them down to 2, then it's going to be up to the members of the conservative party. you're talking around $80000.00 people or so in an online vote, and they will then decide who the next prime minister will beat out just to give you some context in the last leadership, a race from wishes to neck and list trust soon act really kind of had the number as if it came to the polls of it came to where you might remember the debate the to had. he was seen as being more trustworthy, seemed to have a better grip on economic policy. but when it came to the vote of the members, liz truss took the lead. and there is now a feeling that if far as johnson gets to that point, that might work in his favor. of course them is a big question mark again, whether he becomes prime minister. he has legal issues over his head. if he is found guilty. critics are saying is going to lead to a constitutional crisis at the last thing. this country needs right now because of the severe economic issues that people are living on a daily basis. so
4:06 pm
a lot of people we speak to will tell you that you know enough with the back and forth and the politics and the increases that the conservative party, which has been at its own neck for years now. and they need someone trustworthy to run this country and get it, get it. it's back on it's feet at the moment. we're still dealing with the intricacies, an intrigues of the complications of a conservative party. absolutely. it's all intrigue at the moment. stephanie decker in london. thank you very much. let's take a look back at boris johnson's downfall as prime minister. he was already a device of figure when he came to office in 2019. many britain saw him at the time as an opportunist who use turmoil around briggs to push out his predecessor. but his handling of the pandemic the following year in the scandals that emerged hurt his popularity even among conservative voters. in december of last year, reports emerged several illegal parties at johnston's official residence during cove in 1900 lockdown. in june. he did survive a confidence vote, but with only 60 percent of his m. p. 's backing him,
4:07 pm
johnson was forced out the next month after a several senior cabinet members resigned, including richie sooner. well, earlier i spoke to concern the member of the u. k. parliament daniel kaplinski. he says the party is facing a choice between several polarizing figures. i'm very disappointed and somebody who was dedicated my professional life to the conservative party. i've been a good sort of member apartment to 70 years. i've never known the sort of rank division and it is very the stabilize the rising for the party. the state of the country, so it's extremely important that we find somebody who can bring the party to the problem that we have with the selection is that it is so the characters are creating so much rise h, not only with party members, but with the electorate themselves, the nature of the characters. so what's happened over the last few months it's,
4:08 pm
it's created a very difficult in passion and times tense situation. and therefore, i think the best thing for a member of our, under those circumstances is to not only take into account his or her own feelings and consideration, but also those of the map. so outside, the result of that will out about the influence, the way i've and chinese presidents using thing has secured an unprecedented 3rd term is head of the communist party. he has also announced 6 other members of the party senior leadership that group dominated by the president loyalist. it comes a day after the party concluded it's week long congress, which solidified keeping things grip on power. susie her father is she often gone justice, china can't develop an isolation from the world. it needs china for its development through over 40 years of relentless reform and opening up. we have created the twin
4:09 pm
miracles of fast economic growth and social stability. the china will open its stores ever wider. we will be steadfast and deepening reform and opening up across the board. a prosperous. china will create many more opportunities for the world we shane and patrick fox has been following the announcements from beijing. while this was a combination of a week of deliberations behind closed doors here in beijing, and there was always an expectation that president, she would pack his in a circle with loyalists, giving him unfettered control over the party and country all along the way. he has shown a willingness to cast aside party traditions including age caps and term limits, and that was no different with the appointment of new faces on to the politburo standing committee, including the appointments of lee chang, chide she and lee c. none of whom have previously had central governments experienced. the appointment of lee chang in particular was noteworthy because he
4:10 pm
is set to become chinese new premier. and that was another break with tradition and that he has never served as vice premier. and we also saw the downsizing of the why the politburo from 25 members to 24 members. and there was no place for any women on that top advisory body for the 1st time in 25 years. at the unveiling today also present, she talked about how china could not develop isolated from the rest of the world and the world lead china's development as well. that was an important thing for him to have said at a time when the whole world really is a grappling with a slow damn. but it was in stark contrast, one might argue with the focus last wake in the opening dress, where he talked about the need for china's self sufficiency. but whatever direction china takes in the years to come will no doubt be under president. she's terms,
4:11 pm
particularly with the makeup of this new governments. a china new policy bureau standing committee will govern for the next 5 years. the 7 member committee as china is equivalent of a presidential cabinet. it's the country's highest decision making. body president, choosing ping has increased his powers as he secured an unprecedented 3rd term. for of the members are new to the committee, effectively hand pick by she. there will be responsible for policy making and day to day political affairs. now constantino's semantics co wrote the book built and rode at the 1st decade and he lectures in chinese society at king's college, london. he joins us now from athens. constantino, she's goal is to turn china into a prosperous nation on a par with western country by 2050. he said, that's the vision for the country. can he do it? that's the $1000000.00 question, isn't it? so i think what is more important here is the formula that he's going to use to
4:12 pm
achieve and that the formula has the party, it's centered. so the parking lot more, see the police come on the country. it's actually the vehicle to see every success a associate for real shipping. we wisdom and she has concentrated more power in his hands during this congress. is that good news or bad news for chinese economy? well i think this is bad news when you concentrate someone's power. essentially, you have any a political or institutional checks and balances. these means the characters are jasmine. he's also he's france, an immense role and events in on how the countries around. so i do not think that
4:13 pm
title has mileage for years to like to leave their seat through it. they're not a democracy. a politicians has managed to read to me or being on the community now are leaving that aside and giving the full control to one person. i think that's very, very risky. what do you think chinese business leaders and even entrepreneurs are thinking right now because she has already shown a propensity, you know, to sometimes micro manage the business world? well, i think somebody there is a 2nd order. they might see an opportunity there because he has. busy place to keep more emphasis on building a capacity on expanding domestic market. however many others, especially the more in the innovation, high day, can be more boring,
4:14 pm
can be more boring because in war looking pony the we have, i mean, on the way interact, links with the word. so that's not very good news for those sectors. in my view, it also we said earlier that lee chang will be the next premier, which means he will be in charge of the economy. do you? what do you learn from that? was that it was a that it was interesting choice. we're talking about someone who comes from shanghai, he does have a profile, a economic reform, right? so he, if you are a particularly high, you must know along x. however, you say that one of the main reasons why selected was because of his political performance. and the police a public locker, so he needs to be tested because he's not someone that he could try. a like
4:15 pm
a predecessor 100 percent and you would be ok. a good to go well or constantino, simon is. thank you very much for your time today. thank you. all right, there's a lot more to come on the news hour and that includes in search of water in drought, hit kenya will be telling you the story of one woman who makes a long and dangerous journey every day. also a message of peace from baghdad to the world. how performers are hoping to inspire others through their theatre festival. here is our forwarded to mila. it's one of the most luxury villas in the city. and from 5 star luxury to student dorms, we go behind the scenes to see where the world comes. store players will sleep during the contort.
4:16 pm
ukraine's president has urged people to save electricity in the face of russia, attacks on power facilities. over 1000000 ukrainian households are experiencing blackouts after a wave of strikes in the last 2 weeks, keith says attacking civilian facilities ahead of winter amounts to quote terrorism . as much as 40 percent of ukraine's energy related facilities have been seriously damaged in the strikes. the government's implemented rolling power outages of up to 4 hours across the country. and people are being urged not to use appliances during peak periods in the morning and evening to prepare for the blackouts. the national energy company has asked ukrainians to stock up on the water and on warm clothes, or harry faucet joins us live from keith. harry, ukraine's power infrastructure already considerably degraded, were about to enter the winter period, were late october. what's winter going to look like in ukraine? wearing it in one word pretty grim into its grim and worrying for the civilians across ukraine. because of those declining temperatures. and because of this
4:17 pm
repeated continual inexorable attack, it seems on the energy infrastructure just overnight. for instance, there were more rounds of attacks. there were 3 rockets that hit energy infrastructure in litski in the, in the west of ukraine. and there is an attempt by the government to institute some feeling of confidence and that they are trying to manage the situation and talking about the reserves that they've built out for both gas and oil. and as you say, there are these measures that they're asking for from citizens. they're also starting to suit these rolling blackouts here and key if they've decided to separate the city into 3 separate regions within each region. there will be areas that will at separate times experienced these rolling blackouts of up to 4 hours potentially longer. if the circumstances necessitate, they've also turned on the city wide central heating system early before they would
4:18 pm
usually do ahead of winter time in order to try to reduce the demand on the electrical supply from that regard as well. and they're saying that they're acknowledging that, that too is vulnerable to potential attack and interference. and so they're talking about many mobile heating units on trucks that could go and potentially help to heat important buildings, potentially schools, can she medical facilities and others? so there are various measures that they're undertaking, but the reason that they're needing to do so is because of this big switch in tactics from the russian military targeting this vital civilian infrastructure. harry, what do you know about what's happening around the strategic city of her son at the moment in the south? well, we've been hearing for sundays now from the russian side because there has been a, a, something of a news blackout from the ukrainian side about what they are saying. we heard that the new general in charge of the russian war off were if it is rockin that's there would be difficult decisions required around her son or the immediate evacuation
4:19 pm
has now been ordered of civilians are across to the other bank of the deep river from the main city of her son, we are now starting to hear a little bit more from the ukranian side as well. the ministry of defense is talking about 2 or 3 towns to the east of her son in that area under russian occupation, where they say the russian occupying a governance has dissolved disintegrated. doesn't mean that all the military have gotten, but that's what the ukrainian ministry defense is saying. and it's also saying that the russians are cutting. telecommunications are cell towers and other forms of communication, television, aerials within the course on area as well. so all the indications would seem to be that there is a withdrawal underway and potentially an acceptance of an imminent, ukrainian takeover of that city again, which was captured by the russians very early in the war. there are also these
4:20 pm
mutual accusations on each side, but the other one is planning to blow up this enormous damn up stream from her son, which holds back a large portion of the deeper river for a hydro electric power plant. and you have to say that if either side did that it would hurt itself or almost as much as the other side, if not more. so there are, there are serious doubts as to whether that really will happen. but nonetheless, those are the accusations on both sides are harry foster reporting live from key. thank you very much. and 2 pilots have been killed after a russian fighter jet crashed into his 2 story building and the southern siberian city. or the jet was on a test flight over the city. of course, when the accident happened, the regional governor says that no, no local residents were hurt in the crash. the incident comes, days after a military jet crashed into a block of flats in the russian town. of yeast killing more than a dozen people a member of the palestinian arm group. the lions den has been killed. 33 year old tommy or kalani was
