should be born privilege to dinner after dinner day. we are the subjects of the royal family. let one person's opinion, but what's yours? amplify your voice. the judicial system in mexico is incredibly weak and it is not just rushing, we're a global audience, becomes a global community. the scariest part of this moment in like 100 is this place for a more weapon. the stream anaya 0 lou, the me again, you're watching 0 minded about top stories this hour. ukraine says wet weather and the terrain is making the counter offensive. be in the southern hessen region. more difficult, resident zaleski says,

a flaws it's quite an unusual move. this isn't it to hold what's being called a pre summit, 2 weeks before and as the summit that's right, as in leaders are scheduled to meet in cambodia in november. and the fact that this meeting is being held in jakarta with foreign ministers from ours in attending really just shows you how grave and serious and urgent the crisis is in myanmar than 2 days before this meeting as ins. chair, cambodia issued a statement saying the group is quote, gravely concerned over the recent escalation of violence in myanmar. and also on tuesday, the u. n. special envoy from myanmar who visited the country in august, told a u. n committee that the political human rights and humanitarian crisis in myanmar is deepening and taking a quote to catastrophic tall on its people. she said more than 13000000 people

to a 5 point piece plan. and that included colds that included an immediate cessation of violence as dialogue with all concerned parties. this was a piece plan that myanmar had also signed up to. but since then there's been a little note to no progress made. and dan must june 2 representatives have been disinvited from ozzy and meeting since late last year because has been little progress made on this piece plan. now that was seen as quite a bold move then because obviously operates on a policy of non interference among its members states. but because there's been little progress days now, a lot more pressure on us in to put pressure on the june to, to stop the violence that's taking place in yakima. now malaysia has called on ozzy and to engage directly with the shadow government, the national unity and government, they have also been cold for the peace plan to be reviewed. so those are steps that

we could perhaps see are the and mit foreign ministers announcing that ozzy and may take, but we'll have to wait and see what the minister's agree to are i for the moment florence louis life 1st there in quarterly our campaign. he has been heating up ahead of the 2nd round of brazil's presidential elections on sunday, but no matter who wins environmental groups say the brazilian amazon will likely continue to lose. they say it will be difficult to stop the expansion of mining and farming in protected areas. marker you monica unique, you have reports now from mattel, grosso, da saw i saw fight in the punter man fierce largest tropical wetlands tours from all over the world. come to watch, we are birds and wild life in the brazilian state of michael grocery store. 2 years ago were catastrophic fire destroyed much of this green paradise, leaving a trail of destruction and killing millions of native species. fogel glad it was

a gray said default ajar follows him almost via the lands with fire, but the intensity of the 5, if seen in the last he is not common. it's a consequence of divorce dropped in th century caused by deforestation in the amazon and extensive forming. i shall count on with president valuable. so now to brazil, witness to peak of deforestation in the amazon in 2021. 13000 square kilometers were destroyed, reaching a 14 year high. environmental is fear that if bull sorted out a wednesday, october 30th run off, you'll continue pushing for legislation to open up protected areas for mining and farming. as he said, he would, you would as over his offering on the prison both on are, is government has already dismantled and defended public organizations in charge of controlling the preservation of the environment. the continental is the size of many european countries. if there's no protection, it will eventually try out to me. both hernandez left her a rival forum president,

lizzy nasa ruler. the suva has been criticized in the past for the construction of the controversial belo moon. she hydropower dam in the amazon. it displaced some 40000 people, but lola did implement environmental policies, dramatically reducing deforestation, and it's promising to rebuild government institutions that control illegal activities in the amazon. judging how brazilians voted in the 1st round, environment is far from being a priority. for out of every 10 congressman elected are against strict laws limiting economic activity and protected areas. these charcoal color tree trunks are the scars of an intense fire that pass through this forest. 3 years ago. it took fire fighters 40 days to control the flames. and even though scarce rain held the panther now flourish, this me well be

a temporary respite. the future of the month and night, and the amazon may well depend on the outcome of sunday's election. and on the capability of the next president to find a balance between defending nature while promoting much needed economic growth. monica and i give al jazeera bumper now brazil, or nelson franco job. im is a political analyst and professor at hello alonzo university. he thinks brazil's environmental needs will be better served by lula da silva as president. both so now has the same mind sets of the military dictatorship. he believes that the amazon should be occupied by, by, by people. then. the economic activities should be free to be to be developed in the opposite land. the workers start to fade for the morning firing. i'm more concerned with the environmental protection. luna had the very active

lebanon is where hundreds of thousands of syrians escaped to during the war. there is mixed feelings and a lot of uncertainty. some don't have homes, nor jobs. with many say it's dire economic conditions that are driving them back. because i guess it is better to die there than to die here. the situation is difficult here. i can't even afford bread for my children. it will be the same there. at least there we can find a place to be very the repatriation process is being organized by the government in lebanon and syria. they insist this is voluntary. but right group say it lacks transparency and have documented cases of return needs facing abuse back home . even after receiving security clearance, they also point to policies by the lebanese government that makes life difficult for refugees. between 80 to 90 percent of syrian refugees and lebanon don't have

legal residency in the country, which means that they're subject to arrest and deportation. at the same time, you have politicians from across the political spectrum and up and on really cropping up as n a. so big and hateful rhetoric towards refugees, lebanon says it can no longer cope with so many refugees. and officials have gone as far as to accuse the international community of not wanting syrians to return to their country. they believe refusing to redirect a to syria is a way to put more political pressure on damascus later in the seas that are a very limited number of political refugees. we can't stubs or a partridge nation process because of them the you and hcr should settle them in the 3rd country. the u. n. refugee agency says it is not facilitating the return of refugees at this stage. as syria is still not safe for them. it seems many syrians feel the same since 2016,

the us has verified nearly 80000 have returned and less than 3000 have signed up for repass ration in recent weeks. that's a small number. those who don't return are from former strongholds of the opposition in syria, and could face persecution in pro government areas. and many now live in fear as lebanese authorities say this voluntary repatriation process is only beginning. then there are also sita, ourselves northern lebanon. it's elise, the prime minister, georgia maloney has won the 2nd of to confident boats in parliament. majority in the senate voted in favor of her coalition government. on wednesday the lower house voted on tuesday maloney leaves. it's the least most far right government since war to emergency rooms in the us and canada are dealing with a search in cases of a common illness that can cause breathing difficulties. 3, the spirit treat sinks.
