2:04 am
division. and it is very d stayed garage east. they belong to the party dca browsing for the country. for now, only one contender sooner has the support to meet the 100 m p threshold. if that remains the case, he will be the new conservative leader and the new prime minister. and what will be a coordination rather than a contest now, our fisher al jazeera london wanted to see a president while edema. zalinski is denying russian accusations that ukraine may use what's called a dirty bomb. as an explosive laced with radioactive material. russia's defense minister sag assure you is reported to have voice concern, doing phone calls with his counterparts in the u. s. u. k. france, and turkey. ukraine says the allegations are absurd and dangerous. russia has provided no evidence to back up the claims harry force. it has more from keith,
2:05 am
are here ukraine, this round of calls being given by the defense minister should go of russia to his opposite numbers in france, inter kia in the united kingdom. and now in the united states, as well as be labeled, a carousel of calls by the ukraine president vladimir lensky. the message coming from here is that there is an attempt by the russians to escalate at the very least, the rhetoric and potentially prepare the ground for some kind of false flag attempt . that is something that the russians are accusing the ukrainians of our president lensky said. it was the other way round a little boy. if someone could use a nuclear weapon in our part of europe, it could only be one entity. and this entity is the one who ordered short group to make these calls. if russia is calling to tell everyone around that, ukraine is supposedly preparing something. it means only one think. russia has
2:06 am
already prepared all of this equal. there is a similar statement from the foreign minister of ukraine, a little earlier. he said that these claims coming from russia were absurd and dangerous. he said that ukraine was a member of the nonproliferation treaty, had no such nuclear capabilities or ambitions. and that's when russia makes these sorts of allegations, it usually means that it's planning something itself along such lines. the you take ministry of defense also gave it's read out of the call between defense minister ben wallace and his opposite number a show you saying that they refuted such claims and that they cautioned that such allegations should not be used as a pretext for greater escalation so the russians are saying that the ukrainians are trying to build up some kind of a device to, to carry out a false flag attack the ukrainians. eric, using the russians of exactly the same thing. it is notable that russia does seem to be very much on the back foot in southern ukraine, around her son, evacuations of civilians,
2:07 am
reports of evacuations of military equipment as well. the ukrainians are saying that communications net are also being cut in advance of a potential ukrainian recapture of that very important strategic city. so a lot of eyes around that area, the russians are saying that the ukrainians, concocting this device that at the ledges they are putting together not too far away from their son. or you claims president as urged people to save electricity off the russian, a tax on power facilities more than a 1000000 ukraine households are experiencing blackouts after a wave of strikes. in the past 2 weeks, keith says attacking civilian facilities ahead of winter amounts to terrorism. as much as 40 percent of ukraine's energy related facilities have been seriously damaged in the strikes and the government's carrying out rolling power outages of up to 4 hours across the country. people are being urged not to use appliances
2:08 am
during peak periods in the morning and evening to prepare for the black house. the national energy company has asked ukrainians to stuck up on water and warm clothes . the russian missiles have hit an apartment block in the southern ukrainian port city of nikolai in cities, mass as a missile hit the top floor of a residential building, no deaths were reported, but people in the damage building say they heard too loud explosions overnight. you know, it was such a strong explosion. the glass made the walls between the 2 flats crumble in. what was this is the view from the top. there was a shop and now it's not there anymore. i was just in the middle of the odd. there was one explosion and the 2nd one was over there. a 2 pilots had been killed after
2:09 am
a russian fighter jet crashed into a residential building in southern siberia. the accident happened when the jet was on a test flight over the city of a cook. the regional governor says no residents were heard. the incident comes days after military jet crashed into a block of flats and the russian town of yeske, killing 15 people. an attack on a hotel in somalia has ended leaving at least 9 people dead and 47 wounded. siege was in the southern port city of his mire. it's reported a car filled with explosives, ran into the gate of the building. police say all the attackers were killed, the arm group, and schubert has claimed responsibility. agidir's jama. norma asked, mad has more from the capital, mogadishu? a chinese president, she jin ping has secured a precedent. breaking 3rd term as head of the communist party. young veiled
2:10 am
a new leadership team of loyalists. this comes a day after the communist party concluded it's week long congress, which solidified she jenkins grip on power. susie, a farmer? yes, she alton 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 miracles of fast economic growth and social stability. the china will open its stores if a wider we will be steadfast and deepening reform and opening up across the board. a prosperous, china will creates many more opportunities for the world. we shared a patrick forecast more from beijing. well, 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,
2:11 am
giving him unfettered control over the party and country all along the way. he is 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 government experienced. the appointment of lee chang in particular was noteworthy because he 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 wider 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 to day also present, she talked about how china could not develop isolated from the rest of the world
2:12 am
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 week at 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, particularly with the makeup of this new governments about our top story now the conservative leadership raised to be the you case. next. prime minister alex dean is a conservative commentator and he joins us now from london. so what do you make this decision by force johnson to back out. surprised. yes. very surprised. look, here we would have been surprised if we were thinking for us johnson becoming a prime minister again. very soon say it's been a whirlwind of events in london. never right off or as johnson completely the
2:13 am
political graveyard is littered with the creation of people who say or as johnston has finished 70, he's left the door open for a turn down the road in his message to support his saying, he's not going to run this time but now it looks certain that we'll have ricky soon . i can out the next later the conservative party and prime minister time. all right. so if that does happen then can we she seen ac unite. what is right now a very fractured ruling party. it's going to be really tricky and that's a very fair question. the conservative party is now wrote down 3 prime ministers in a row. and if you were to ask to reason a or it's johnston all is trust, i think all of them would tell you the biggest challenge with no offense meant to the opposition parties. was not the enemies in party terms. it was people within their own proxy that they see the most. and we are now to have our 3rd prime minister in a single year. he's going to face him questions the legitimacy,
2:14 am
you know, people voted in 2019 for johnson as prime minister, not richard soon act. he's going to face that challenge straight away, and he's got a large number people in the policy that was keen on him becoming a prime minister. so there's a real challenges. but the biggest issue isn't actually what you see next pena. the biggest issue is going to be the party value together and coming behind. so what, what would his, if he was to become prime minister? what would that mean in terms of policies? i think that he's indicated king has to try to balance the books. but we've had a couple of prime ministers in it right now. we're very keen on prioritizing growth, whether that be investing in big infrastructure projects. ready be cutting taxes in an attempt to boost the economy and drive people's earnings that they want to go out and work out or learn more and not approach has not been embraced of late, especially by the markets. you will have seen the markets response to the sake of many projects during lives. trust is short time as prime minister,
2:15 am
which is negative. rich. you see that's going to be a prime minister that wants to reassure the market. the britain is being a sensible economic player. it's a mean jettisoning all of the supposed tax cuts that the trust government had talked about. and it's going to mean almost certainly some cuts in state spending, trying balance these books and assure the markets that the economies and say times and then of course tried to take us into election probably in 2024. and when it's rather than lose badly to the labor party, which is what current opinion pulse is just good to get your perspective that explained. thank you. a still head to on the edge 0 where the stars are staying 5 star hotels to student dormitory, living for players set football welcome. aah!
2:16 am
with weather was changed dramatically in western canada 24 degrees in calgary. down to 16 centipedes of snow in back one day as this system came in. so things have changed as they should do, going down to was late october, early november. but the head of this, the system is drawing up want. so for the plane states and including the remains of her can, rosalind there'll be significant rain from texas right up to, well beyond isn't it, to the east of it. nice and ball to the west, which is cooling down this snow talking in places like north dakota and montana looking bit like it should do. and the droughts been broken in washington state and british columbia temps is back down to where they should be in the caribbean. it is still went in the south, at least, and i think for cost to re grand panama significant rain is probable. the same is true. caught, obviously in puerto rico, the significance this orange top big thunderstorm, the coast of mexico. by the time you get to end of monday is bone dry. yeah. was
2:17 am
the hurricane gum. well, it's that streak of red, as i said, up in the u. s. in south america, although it's remarkably drawing the mass of the amazon, there are big showers around further west, and they could fall anywhere with flash flooding as a potential sas and all this and the spring want the showing up once again, obviously in santiago with november the 8th americans won't vote all the seats in the house of representatives . at 35 percent of the senate will be contested. americans are expected to split on strict ideological lines with abortion and the economy named as the key issues. the result will define the rest of jewel biden's presidency and put americans democratic principles to the test. special coverage of the midterm elections on i'll just either oh
2:18 am
the me again, you're watching. i just reminder of our top stories of this out for prime minister barak johnson has pulled out of the race for britain leadership form of finance minister richie sooner is now the front runner in the contest the succeed lives trust as prime minister and conservative party leader ukraine says russian allegations it may use an explosive laced with radioactive material. absurd and dangerous rushes defense minister is reported to have raised concerns during cause with his counterparts in the u. k. france and turkey. moscow has provided no evidence to back to claims at least 9 people that have been killed in an attack on
2:19 am
a hotel in somalia. and chabad has claimed responsibility for the speech in the southern port city of his smile. but georgia maloney has taken power as italy's 1st female prime minister, the handover from outgoing premier meadow drive. he was made official at a ceremony in rome loan he was sworn in on saturday as the leader of the country's most far right government since world war 2, brazil's left it prep. leftist presidential candidate luis in ass unit, the silver is harder we're trying to win over the votes of conservative, evangelical christians. he scored 6000000 votes more than his opponent, president jail bought sonata in the 1st round. but as monica yankee of reports support for boston arrows far right, policies remain strong just a week away from voting is so it looks
2:20 am
images of women in skimpy clothes on the beach or dancing to the rhythm of sand by in the carnival parade. but beneath the thin layer of open mindedness worn by an urban minority, i saw significant conservative constituency with far right presence, able so narrow in power. it has raised its voice. oh, for an odd bit. sadness, both an arrow, one over millions of angry voters by lending his voice, their thoughts, conservative brazilians have taken to the streets against corruption, but many were afraid of speaking out against gay marriage and gender policies. because it was not a thing to do with both scenarios. they felt emboldened frances casala helped elect leftist candidate with the national lola, the super president in 2003. and we elect him 4 years later. he felt betrayed by the corruption scandals. whether will murder, i decide to only vote for someone who represents my values. i love my family,
2:21 am
i have a religion and i appreciate good morals. i'm not afraid to admit that i'm a right winger. this was parents still support lola, because they believed he'll help the poor. but the shop owner and his sister will vote for both seattle. i think one more, her spirit goes through further with my respect dos you think differently, but i want to be respected as well as a father. i don't believe children should be given the freedom to choose what gender they identify with. lola was running for a 3rd presidential term, is trying to swing voters like this song. 2 weeks before the run off election, he wrote a letter to of angelic all christians who represent one 3rd of brazil's population . he promised to respect all religions as he always has, paul show 6 out of 10 separable. so, mattel, believing false accusations, that molar wants to close down the churches shape also not only win or lose the run of presidential election on october, the 30th. but his right we now live have already secured
2:22 am
a majority in congress. if lou lays elected president, he will have a hard time promoting a progressive political agenda. many your dislike monarchy in our give al jazeera, rio de janeiro, or the u. k, as had 2 female prime ministers. teresa may and liz trust in the past few years, both took over at a difficult time and were forced to resign some academics or calling this the glass cliff in which a woman or a person of color assume a leadership role in a risky situation. and they sense this is their only chance to lead. we speak to australian researcher michelle ryan, who coined the term gloss. cliff, thanks very much for being with us. so many of us are familiar with this, with the glass ceiling metaphor in which traps women from reaching their full potential explain to us how you came up with this term, glass cliff. yeah,
2:23 am
the class cliff really looks at what happens when women break through that glass ceiling. and as you suggested, it happens often when things are in crisis when things are difficult. so the metaphor really tries to pick up on that idea that these women are up high, their in senior leadership roles, but the risk of failure, the risk of falling off the cliff is high as well. and i'm assuming you believe this is, this was the case with less trust. i think absolutely. if you look at the situation that list trusts was in when she came in, even in her resignation space, she acknowledged the the risk and the prick. hardy, in that so in terms of the low economic growth, the energy crisis, the war in the ukraine. but also, i think would in terms of internal politics, if you think about party gate and bars, johnson's resignation and i think the fractured nature of the party,
2:24 am
all of those things come together to, to add a sense of crisis and prosperity to the position to so just to play devil's advocate here for a moment, what do you say to those who argued that enlist trust his case? her failure was largely. ready self inflicted and the gender is irrelevant. well, i think you know, you, both of those things can be true in some ways. i think the glass cliff can be true in terms of her coming into the position. so really the glass cliff talks about when women have the opportunity to lead and then i guess what they do once they go into that position, they still have agency and they still have the ability to do better or do worse. i guess what the research on the glass clip says is that it's more difficult to do well when things are already in crisis. so of course, one can still evaluate her performance as being sort of good or bad,
2:25 am
while still recognizing that the opportunity for her to shine may be wilson and, you know, as strong as it could have been. and what sort of effect does this have on a, on a woman's career? i mean, do female leaders find it harder than male ones to, to get 2nd chances later on? yeah, i think absolutely. well, certainly the length of tenure is one of the symptoms of the glass cliff. and when we see 45 days in office that, you know, that's one of the, you know, one of the outcomes there are. we've also got research that shows that it's very difficult in terms of the ability to perform well. and that's often very highly stressful. there's a lot of criticism that comes in from the media, from other politicians, from the public as well. and then at a broader level, if we don't think just about the woman that's in the glass cliff position, but how it affects women more generally, if we keep seeing women go into these leadership positions that are risky,
2:26 am
precarious, and perhaps failing, or having the short tenures like list trusted, it might one reinforce the idea that women aren't very good at leadership and that reinforces those old stereotypes about men being good at leadership and women being not so good. but it might also turn other women off, the desire to take on leadership positions order into politics. if they see women struggling again and again, could to get your thoughts on this. michelle ryan, they swimmers are the you case, political chaos has been a satirist delight. the internet's been lighting up with means victoria gayden b as that. looking to take the next step in your career. the you k government is hiring and is now inviting applications for prime minister. this recruitment video was produced by 2 comedians, but the joke started before list trust resigned. ah, one
2:27 am
u. k. newspaper started live streaming and lettuce to see if it would last longer than trust as prime minister it did. there's been this mock ad b and b listing of downing street, and this tweet from an unofficial account of the downing street cats from political cartoons to the tv show spitting image. britton's enjoy a long history of political satire. comedian say it plays an important role in a functioning democracy, a lot of comedians kind of find their path by just tweeting at the time as things happen. so it's really about getting a small point across and a really quick way. and i often think that it might sound as a joke or main, but it actually kind of opens doors for a lot of people to investigate more and find out more about what is actually happening. delinquent, barman's law. no previous experience is necessary and don't worry about having a high i q. it's been a turbulent few weeks in british politics list. the lettuce is no more. ah,
2:28 am
but political sato is at least alive and kicking in the u. k. victoria gate and be al jazeera, the when you are top football playing at the world cup, you need certain essential to be at your best good food, a hot shower, and accompanied bed, all the basics for most of us. but elite players need a little extra to and i guess roscoe went to see whether stars will sleep some resemble and a raven palace. others and a waste is in the desert. whether it's a luxury resort or student accommodation. the 32 will cut finalists have book their rooms, and if they make it all the way to the final, they'll be staying in them for up to 5 weeks. so that choice of accommodation may well prove crucial the come back nature of this tournament means it's the 1st time
2:29 am
teams haven't had to change locations, all travel long distances to get to games. 24th, those 2 teams have made their home base within a 10 kilometer radius of the center of doha. while others have chosen to stay much further away. belgium and saudi arabia close to the saudi arabian border. the german team has exclusive use of a wellness result as far north as you can go in the country around a 100 kilometers from dough hall. the most basic rooms here cost around a $1000.00 a night. and mexico chose to base themselves in the small seaside town of the mace ma, 30 kilometers north of dough. here is our ford vigil villa. it's one of the most luxury villas in the city. i believe the mexicans who have selected the lease earlier. they can visit one of their choices before even they get qualified. i think the privacy here is the key. you still have to have something from
2:30 am
a culture or something from their background for the mexican and the other guy do it should be essential to be there. the chinese course, the like, get something very, very important and we will make it happen for them. and it really feels like we could be in mexico, doesn't it? through a little a little mystic was a little bit a little the play is it is tournament may be worth millions of dollars. not all of them. the staying in luxury, lena, messy garden, tina and former champions, spain have chosen catholic university campus where they can walk to their training ground, australia and student accommodation to be at at the state of the art aspire sports academy. well this is a nice the student dome i've ever been in the beds are very comfortable. as you can see, there are 2 beds in this room that the sucker is. let me put one player in a room like this. he'll have his own private ball through and then she, you know, the bedroom on the other side of the suite, 263 suites like this in this building. as you can.
