it as sports capitalism is, says criticism of his country hosting the tournament has been unprecedented and calls it defamation while walls. cop tompkins. and it seems that don tells his fellow frenchman to en talks of a boy called to the tournament and focus on the football awe. hello, we begin this news hour in the u. k. where the new cabinet is taking shape by minister, which is soon ack. who's officially taken office wasted no time picking his ministers, including keeping jeremy hunters, chancellor of the exchequer. soon i cause vow to fix the mistakes of his predecessor and said, one of his priorities will be to bring economic stability, holborn, and reports. richie soon, i kiss britain's 3rd prime minister in the space of just 2 months, and he inherits a daunting set of problems in the wake of the brief and chaotic tenure of his
9:03 pm
predecessor, liz truss. some mistakes were made soon. acts message. i'm here to fix those problems and that work begins immediately. i will place economic stability and confidence at the heart of this government's agenda. this will mean difficult decisions to come. richey soon act warned of they profound economic challenges that the u. k. now faces. now as he sweeps into down the street for the 1st time as prime minister, it's time to set out his agenda. addressing the question about his mandate to govern. after so many changes, a prime minister without an election, he put the election winning 2019 manifesto at the center of his program and in a perceived swipe at both forest johnson and liz trust. soon i committed. i have work to do to restore trust. this government will have integrity,
9:04 pm
professionalism, and accountability at every level. trust is earned and i will earn yours on the same spot. just 90 minutes earlier, danny street had seen the departing speech of liz trust, the shortest serving prime minister in british history, after just 50 days in charge. there was little for her to claim credit for. so a short speech ended in a simple platitude. i believe in the british people and i know the bright, today's fly ahead. thank you. soon acts elevations, a prime minister, has received congratulations from around the world. the u. s. president joe biden described the 1st british asian prime minister as groundbreaking pretty astound a groundbreaking milestone in the matters. it matters and from the european commission chief version of on the land. we count on a strong relationship with the u. k. to defend our cohen values. but in russia the
9:05 pm
kremlin said it saw no grounds for hope that they'll be any positive changes. soon i could promise to unite all the talents of the conservative party and not just give jobs to his allies. his 1st ministerial appointments also emphasized continuity. jeremy hunt to stay as the finance minister james cleverly retained his post as foreign secretary. and so ela braverman returns his home secretary, stability and confidence. it seems to replace turbulence and division whole brennan al jazeera danny street. that's how crossover to alan fisher, who's outside the prime minister's residence, and office at downing street. so allen, toughest are the most significant appointments? well, he wants to put together a team that he believes will be able to tackle the big problems that britain, a spacing. it's interesting that he went with continuity at the foreign office. many people thought that james cleverly was perhaps the most at risk in the big offices of state, not least because the school coat in support of forest johnson's political
9:06 pm
resurrection on sunday night. but there were days that he's doing a good job at the foreign office that he has made connections around the world. and that is very important. also important has been wallace at the ministry of defense . of course, there's a lot of sport coming from the u. k. to ukraine at he has been the main conduit for that. he was at the defense minister under boris johnson. he continued that role under less trust. and now he will continue to be that, that, that minister i under richie soon act at what is interesting is that for a man who stood on the steps of downing street and said that his government would be marked by professionalism and integrity is bringing back. so l braverman into the home office now is she spent, she resigned 6 days ago. some say she was fired because of a breach of security rules at the home office. essentially, she sent an official document from her personal email. no, that is
9:07 pm
a clear breach. and some would suggest that that shows that there's a lack of accountability, a lack of integrity, that he brings her back. she to places grant chaps, who's appointed by las trust, who becomes the shorter serving home secretary, interior minister in the history of the u. k. with just 6 days. so those are the big roles that have to be filled. clearly he has a plan, he's talking about difficult decisions to be made, and he knows that many people across the u. k. are struggling at the moment. the fuel bells will start to come and very soon, a day will be higher than most people expect. that there is a cost of living crisis. most people are finding it much more expensive to feed their families. and they're looking to the government to make the life fetch us. no . throughout the last 4 months, there has been essentially paralysis in the house of commons. as at the, the tory party went through this paroxysms of, of leadership at difficulties. first of all, with boris johnson being removed and then with less trust being elected that very
9:08 pm
long campaign where she'd be richie sooner and then her chairman offers spending just 45 days there. soon it has got to have a plan to try and make things better sooner. but as i said earlier, to use the old mike tyson phrase to bring in a boxing analogy, everyone is applying to the get punched in the face. so he is for ping that the stability of appointing some of the the, the regular thesis including keeping a hold of the finance minister. the chancellor of the exchequer is as jeremy hunt, that at least there will be stability in the financial markets. and that will buy him a little time to get his plans in place and through the commons to try and make things better. otherwise, he's aware that there's a real difficulty for the conservative party. it has been split for a good 2 years. no, it is a split which has claimed forrest johnson unless trust and he has got to get the party behind him. if he is to avoid electoral disaster at the next general election and allen just on the point at the event in a moment to go on the, on the serious economic challenges that are facing the country. just talk us
9:09 pm
through how significant they are. well for everyone here in the u. k, these seem to be complaining how things are much more expensive. we have the highest inflation rate in the u. k. in 40 years it is harder for people to feed their families. it is harder for people to warm their homes, it is harder for people to get to work, to feed their families, to warm their homes. and so all of these are built up together. and so richie sooner was very much during the that, that the election campaign that led to list trust winning saying, look, you can't go cutting taxes for the richest. you've got to make difficult decisions . we have to make sure that we get the short term economic future sorted. and then we can start concentrating on creating growth longer term. and he talked about this trust his idea of a large growth economy. and he says that,
9:10 pm
that it is something that they would like to see, but he's aware of the issues that they are facing at the moment. and so they have got to deal with the cost of living crisis. and when he says, you know, trust isn't a given, it is and he's got to and it very quickly and people have got to see noticeable changes in their lives that things are getting slightly easier. they appreciate the honesty, perhaps, that they know that there are difficult decisions to be made, that things won't be easy, but they, they know that if they can see that things are getting better or feel that things are getting better than rushes. tonight will win a little more time because most people want a new prime minister to do well because of he's doing well, it means the country's doing well and by extension they might be doing much better . thank you so much. allen, for us are reporting from down the street. now, alistair jones is an associate professor and policy set them up for university. his as that richie soon act is trying to send some key messages. number one is
9:11 pm
stability, and linkedin with that is there's a trust. so what is what he done demonstrating the financial markets not around the world is the grown ups have taken control again after the fiasco of police trust mission and the lies in the district in the johnson premiership. i really need to go back to what we're good out and we're good and trust with good us integrity and he wants to demonstrate stability so that the, the market transcript. so jeremy hum, stating his transfer of the exchequer finance minister, if you prefer that that was almost any more. and it said that he would stay in post if she wrong. and it was all job was going to do the same. starting point is a lot stronger than this process had simply because he has an absolute majority of en page backing him compared to his trust when she, when she left and she had 50 m p. 's or so having her as their 1st choice is party leader. she had to try to win over the page and she failed to do so. 20 or head on
9:12 pm
the run is are including this prospect or piece negotiators and the government and the t guy region agree to hold off the powerful cyclic bank desk killing at least 9 people. this is going home. i'm disrupting communications. i'm tell, are pledging to host the 1st carbon neutral football world. we take a look at the challenges facing the tiny golf nation. but 1st, it's a task being described as a challenge for generations rebuilding ukraine after russia invasion. you leaders are meeting in germany to lay out what's being called a new marshal plan. germany's chancellor says the reconstruction will require combined international strength is estimated. it will cost at least $200000000000.00 to repair the infrastructure. step boston has more from that conference in berlin. well, the big question here, and berlin is,
9:13 pm
who is going to pay for this? a very costly, a huge reconstruction, a reconstruction of ukraine. it is a lot of pressure on the european union to put up it's efforts because the united states has put in more than $50000000000.00 just for mostly for military 8 and european union has also pledged a lot of money, but only a fraction of it has already been paid in his address through video link to the conference from key if president landscape basically complained that from this fast recovery fund that they have established in ukraine, there was not a single sent being paid by any international donor so far. so that was quite a painful moment in this conference, which is all about money for the reconstruction of ukraine. the big question of course, is also who is willing to pay while the war is ongoing. they are estimates by the world bank that $350000000000.00 us dollar is needed, but this price,
9:14 pm
this costs are going up by today of course, because of more destruction. so lansky sat, one 3rd of all the energy facilities were already destroyed. only in the last couple of weeks by russian attacks. so there is pressure on the you and also the you are saying that they want to step up because ukraine is a candidate member for the european union. so this whole reconstruction could be a huge benefit for europe to have ukraine as a very prosperous nation in the future. so with the help of a lot of donors, that could be possible, but again, it seems there's still quite some reluctance to really make commitments. mom, a jim, jim has more from keith on ukraine's efforts to rebuild. we went just a couple of days ago to the city of here, pin that's just outside of key. it's in the key region and, and that's where there was very heavy fighting in the early days of the war. it stands as
9:15 pm
a symbol of ukrainian resistance because you had them repelling russian advances. russian forces eventually withdrew from that area. but what we saw there, it was shocking months after russian forces withdrew. you had apartment blocks that were still lying in ruin, where no reconstruction had taken place. you have over a 1000 buildings that were damaged as a result of the fighting. you have over a 100 that were destroyed completely. so that's just a snapshot of where things are in this country. now, the keep school of economics just in september, estimated that it would take at least $200000000000.00 to begin to repair the damage to this country's infrastructure. that was before this recent wave of massive attacks by russia that started on october 10th targeting critical infrastructure throughout the country and especially the power grid up to 30 to 40 percent. the power grid has been heavily damaged in these attacks. i spoke in the last couple of hours to the president of the keep school economics. he says he
9:16 pm
estimates now the toll as far as how much it would take to try to start rebuilding the infrastructure in this country would be perhaps around $240000000000.00 that just goes to show how much worse it's getting. this is at a time when temperatures are dropping when there are concerns about the electricity and winter approaching. because the power grid has been so damaged and people are really worried about what's going to happen to them going forward. and they're really concerned that russia is going to try to weaponized the winter of rushes. defense ministry says this forces have repelled ukrainian attacks and a hearse on, on lou ganske regions, ukrainian forces have been pushing closer to her song as part of a counter offensive. assa bake has more from bach rusk in the eastern. done yet, screeching was very difficult to get a real sense of what's taking place because the ukranian authorities have put in a media blackout is very difficult to get access to those locations in her son. because ukrainians have been very defensive about their movements as they mount
9:17 pm
this offensive. but what we have been hearing is that they are trying to push forward towards her son. and yesterday we heard from the ukrainian, or military intelligence saying that the russians are not retreating. in fact, they are reinforcing, bringing the new units into her son, city to be prepared to defend that city. now elsewhere in the country, the ukraine offensive. listen, the east continues, but from what we understand is that the front line hasn't really shifted. now the head of the ukraine, a general staff of the armed forces said that several people were killed in back within the tangled back route and 3 were injured. now just to give you a sense, i was in black mood back in may and the russians are trying to take the area tazz like back move in solid are in the east and they've been slowly edging forward. now the ukrainians have said that the repelled further russian attacks and they still haven't taken that time. but of course, as these battles take taste, it is a great cost. the cost was buildings mean destroyed the infrastructure. and of
9:18 pm
course, the human cost that's taking place and in advance is that the russians had made in the last few months towards the east. in india, back mode, the ukraine said that they've managed to repel them, push them back in the last 2 days. again, that battle continues in the dumbass region, but for now that front line hasn't really changed or with the ukrainians and making some gains in the last month or so. at least one person has been killed during protest since 2 john demonstrators are marking the one year anniversary of a military takeover that holds the country's democratic transition. police say the victim was hit by a vehicle belonging to security forces. at least 40 others have been wounded. if a morgan has more from the demonstrations and hard to protest that are out on the streets. once again. incidence capital according to their marketing. the 1st anniversary of the military take over last year,
9:19 pm
which intended to we had transitional government that was meant to be down to democracy and to election. now, these kinds of protests have been happening on a weekly basis here in the capital with demonstrators demanding the military handled power to, to brilliant government, be removed from the dance politics and returned to the barracks at least 180 protesters have been killed in anti military demonstration with it could to force you to your guys and live ammunition. i'm hundreds of others have been injured, but that has not stopped. the protest movement will demonstrate to think they will continue to voice their anger against the military and continue demanding a civilian government. now the african union be nice at nations mission here is to dan and the regional body. i guys have been trying to broker an agreement between the political parties and the military. in july, the military said that it would be stepping away from those dogs to pay way for the political parties to reach their own content and form a civilian. let government, what is phones? what will be called the higher council of the armed forces, but that has not moved on the protest movement. people have been demanding that the
9:20 pm
military completely step aside, while political parties form is to really let government that ensure that sudan is once again, on its back to democratic transition. and in iraq, people have been on the streets of baghdad to protest against the political elite organizer is or demanding an end to corruption, poor public services and high unemployment. same bas ravi has more from to hurry to square, who would have gal opposition, groups of god, doctor de, to protest against the government that he was corrupt. busy in the continuation of the corrupt government of the past. and they're also here to mark the 3rd anniversary of a protest movement that began in 2019 and they're here to march 1st to illustrate to the government. they remain stuck on trying to achieve the government that was representative of the people that is secular. and it does not serve the interest of the political lead, but it's not in a couple months that i haven't want to know all the governments paused and prisons
9:21 pm
are not looking over the people in a loving manner. the 1st reaction is to suppress people. you kill and beat, and that's why people are angry at you. fix yourself before trying to fix others if you psychopath. give it a go, we go with no, no. they came from trash and now they own the seats of government. and since 2003, after stealing millions, they're still not satisfied. you can take half of iraq's wealth, but at least give something to the people on. this protest movement has so far been mostly peaceful. we've seen some instances of young men trying to break the police lines. they come up the side of the square and they try to push back against the security patrol over here. the police lines and rides have surrounded this part of the square blocking bridges and roads that go into sensitive parts of the city, the green zones, government buildings, and every now and then young men have been coming up trying to push back against
9:22 pm
the police. the police push them back, rocks and water bottles have been thrown. what we're seeing is the protest. leaders then come and form a human chain and block off their own demonstrators trying to self regulate to illustrate to the police, to their own people. that this is a peaceful protest and must remain the protesters number in the hundreds. it's not as big as demonstrations. it's a her square has been in the past. the disruption is city wide, roads and bridges and schools have all been closed. and a lot of the footage road traffic is putting pressure on other parts of the which is something that many resident values tell us that they are sick. they want to see an entity demonstrations. they want to see political stability. and that is something that everyone here continues to call for, but the demonstrators here want to maintain that their political ambition is to see a country that is improving. that is moving forward and they say this current government isn't the one to deliver that. students have been protesting as universities across iran, despite an ongoing corrected by the authorities. tension continue to moan from the

9:24 pm
be asking many questions about this a constance's and the mistakes that were made. another debate that is going on is the issue of the extra judicial killings. many people have over the years, been killed or disappeared, allegedly by police death cords. now president william wooten, recently. these bonded special police unit, accused of enforcing disappearances and abductions now in july to indian nationals. why went missing? they were part of the campaign team of president brutal during the election. police say they're still investigating that case. i investigate. investigator said that they need time to get to the bottom of these things. but many kenyans that we were

9:35 pm
. and now these talks are expected to go on until at least sunday. we haven't heard anything particularly encouraging, but it has been shrouded in secretary secrecy rather perhaps talking to the sensitivity of the issue. and also some of the concern security concerns from the to grants who are attending a funeral procession has been held for palestinians killed during and is really army right in the occupied west bank. a prominent leader of the on group lines done was among the victims. but he has more from nablus these people don't want to believe that fell athenian fight that were the and however is dead. but he died from his wounds after israeli forces targeted him in the city of nablus, north of the occupied westbank. 5 other palestinians were also killed by israeli forces turning tuesday into the worst night of violence in the occupied westbank in years. one of the bodies being taken out of the area was burnt after really forces

9:38 pm
