you once again, making sure the weakest in the crowd, women, children, the sick and elderly don't get pushed to the back of the law that often requires force. this was an easy, a moment, the likes of which we have never seen. this is important. this is your story from breaking down the headlines to exposing the powers attempting to silence reporting . we're seeing media freedom being threatened, and attacked is basically criminalizing journalism. the listening post doesn't cover the news. it covers the way the news is compet. people have no idea what the source of use is. that is the game, the growth, and that broadcloth for the avenues. why on out is there. ah, is really, and lebanese leaders sign a historic maritime agreement to boost their energy resources. ah,

it's good to have you with us. i'm several venue this is al jazeera live from doha . also coming up a slowing counter offensive. ukraine says russians are reinforcing positions in the southeast as winter sets in. a pakistani journalist is laid to rest after he was shot dead by the canyon. police. at the window is closing, the un warned, there is no credible path left to meet ambitious carbon reduction targets. ah, so it is really and lebanese leaders have now signed a u. s. brokerage deal that for the 1st time, lays out their maritime border in the mediterranean sea. this enables both countries to conduct offshore exploration for gas and oil. the agreement comes after months of indirect talks, that ended a decade long border conflict. st holder has the late from southern lebanon lines

in the sea have been drawn as being described as a landmark agreement between countries, technically in a state of war, lebanon, and israel didn't engage directly in the process. it involved years of negotiations mediated by the united states. that's given both countries guarantees. if either challenges the agreement i historic day in the region of securing showing what's possible under these circumstances to achieve an agreement that creates hope and economic opportunity and stability for on both sides of the border. there was no formal ceremony to mark the agreement behind closed doors. the delegation signed separate documents, which were then given to the united nations. the deal is based on what is known as line 23 gaz from a prospective field called connor will go to lebanon. but since a part of it lies outside the demarcation line, israel will be given

a share of any profits. while the korean gas field will remain within as roused waters and extraction has already started. this allows israel to increase its potential to export gas to europe, where there is a rising demand triggered by russia's invasion of ukraine. this has provided a catalyst and bush and implemented for this agreement to happen specifically because europe is working on reconfiguring its energy security away from its dependence on russian oil and gas hydrocarbons agenda. energy production in the eastern mediterranean has been growing as israel, egypt. jordan and cyprus have worked together. you look for proximity, you look for accessibility among many other things and so far the east med geographically position as it's, is, is proving to be that accessible quality door to europe. so they can start getting

guys, getting guys out of lebanon will take time. the deal enables international companies to begin exploration, which could help lebanon with its crippling economic crisis. for 11 on this is about the economy, it inserts the deal does not signify any form of normalization, nor is it a peace treaty. for israel, it's about security guarantees. and in the words of the prime minister, your la pete, a political achievement through which level on the fact so recognizes israel has a below which was towards israel, rejected those claims. but since the start of the negotiations, the iranian backed group adopted what many calls a pragmatic approach it is, the most powerful political and military force in lebanon. and the states would need its stamp of approval, national. he has the law not to do his but considers what happened in the maritime border, demarkation agreement, a great victory for 11 on the people and the resistance. the agreement may be

limited to the maritime border, but the us administration sees it differently. president joe biden says it will harness vital new energy resources for the world said there elisha zita, nikita southern lebanon and bernard smith is on the other side of the boundary with the israeli perspective. now, after decades of hostility in israel, this is being viewed as a significant diplomatic departure in relations with lebanon. israel views this as good for its security along the northern border, reducing the risk of potential conflict with iraq backed group has bala and as the prime minister has also said, it's not every day that an enemy country recognizes the state at israel in a written agreement in full view of the international community, israel's already started exploiting one of those gas fields named in the maritime agreement out there is pumping has been pumping gas in the last 24 hours. so it's

already enjoying the economic benefits. lot of attention from israeli media on this meeting to day compared to the fairly low key event as was shown from the lebanese side. but the israel is here, making a lot of this agreement a ukrainian forces are pushing towards the strategic southern city of her son. moscow appointed authorities have fled the city, along with more than 70000 residence. fighting has also been intensifying in eastern regions where the russian forces shelling the city of back moved in the done yet scarier. russia's military says it's pushed back attacks and several areas, despite the ukrainian advance local gal come the probably anybody until in the could be on the direction the enemy, with up to 2 companies. technical groups reinforced by mercenaries attacked the positions of the russian troops in the direction of mc alive, car and orleans sca had a cave region. all attacks will repels up to 60 ukrainian servicemen and militants

let us be one. nobody dares about a step but march on till we get that e l. independence. our democracy. let's take a look now at our shad terese last moments before he was killed on sunday. he was at a shooting range called ammo dump. this is in magazine south of capital nairobi. he is reported to have left in the evening with the pakistani owner of a 4 wheel drive, toyota, the ex they headed north, going to sheriff's accommodation in westland. however, the journey was cut shorts on this road. the camel curry road, initial police report say they mistook the car for a stolen vehicle report say that they shot at the car as it drove through a police barrier. but this has posed some unanswered questions. namely, the report is stolen, court license was katie, g, $700.00 f. so how was that mistaken with their license plate,

katie g $200.00 m and did they only target the passenger and not the driver who survived. catherine soy is in leafy in kenya, and she tells us more about the investigation of the stance. the death of ash rod shreeve has raised a huge debate here in can you people are asking many questions about this a constance is under which the john list was killed during a shootout. now forensic experts have been to the scene and they have taken firearms and bullets from the police officers who are involved. now the police say that sharif and another friend was driving the car fields to stop at the police check point. this barrier had been set up by the police who was allegedly pursuing a vehicle of the someone reported that he son had been abducted and the car stolen

now entirely of police will be looking into whether the officer was justified to use their weapons. why did the offices, for example, fire directly at the vehicle? if indeed they were chasing a car that had a potential hot stage? these are some of the questions the people are asking. now, officers who are at the scene say that they watched or thought by the coupons, in the call one police man was injured as while an independent of police oversight commission is also on the case. it will be very, very interesting to see what they report because we know from the past that such reports are hardly are, are, are hardly a made public. but the police force is under a lot of pressure to get to the bottom of what happened. still, head on al jazeera,

more turmoil in sri lanka. first, the country was plunged into a political crisis. now, many a demanding government deal with a broken economy. and a respiratory virus puts pressure on u. s. hospitals and doctors warning children are at risk. ah, anticipation is rising. and so with most of my cattle aways, the philippine sees breeding and the tropical cycling, which will probably briefly touch on typhoon strength, which is not there at the moment. it's heading to the central philippines that probably curl across lose all later in the weekend is main risk is going to be that of rain. therefore, lance lies given that takes much of the energy, the atmosphere, and surrounding it. there'll be big thunderstorms a little bit further away. it's not going to be quite as wet,

but you come back towards singapore. sudden tylen, sumatra that looks fairly wet next year. so where is java and bali? not so rather dry this time of the year. now the ne monsoon is setting up, which is what it should do now, which means things are finally cooling down in southern china qualen down to about $25.00, which is where it should be more or less. it's not extremely cold yet in mongolia, but you can see the snow now coming through in the forecast temperature. still hyatt 20 in tokyo, and about the same in sol with some significant right only for her condo. and now the monsoon rights are withdrawn and the ne monsoon is setting in here to each of scott showers in the southeast corner of india for the rest of india for buying version for pakistan, effectively doubts quiet and dry with increasingly poor quality the weather sponsored by cattle, i was witness inspiring films from around the world. they shall not stop the violin

it allows both countries to conduct offshore exploration for gas and oil. a russia has renewed its assault on ukraine's energy infrastructure. keith now face is a 30 percent shortfall in electricity supplies. nearly a 3rd of the country's power stations were destroyed this month. a funeral for prominent pakistani journalist arshad sharif has been held in the capital. islamabad. sharif was shot dead by kenyan police. and what officials say was a case of mistaken identity as southeast asian countries have again failed to take a tough stance against me and mars military rulers, during a meeting of as an foreign ministers discussion centered around developing a new strategy and dealing with the hunter. lawrence louis has more on this foreign ministers from the association of south east asian nations or amazon, meet to discuss ways to resolve the crisis. indiana. it's military rulers had agreed to a piece planned with other ards in member states in april last year. to end the unrest the country's faced since they took part in

a coo last year. but there's been no progress. and the talks in jakarta appeared to fail to change that. but it is too early to mention in detail about the recommendation at natalie lackey. lucas, daddy, because once again the task of this meeting is to prepare for the next month, summit implant bank, which among other things, will have a special session to discuss implementation with the 5 point consensus. 9, the consensus calls for an immediate end to violence and dialogue between me and most genta, an antique who opponents. but the conflict is worsening. this video shows the aftermath of air strikes by me and mos military last weekend. they struck a concert in contin state, a stronghold of the kitchen, independence army, one of myanmar major ethnic armed resistance groups. at least 50 people were killed . as ian is under pressure to take

a strongest dance against me on most military leaders. if i were to be in the position of a foreign ministers, i would burst on me. it wouldn't bother within 3 months or before the end of this year. if where were to be at all, possibly reaction on your make this and on the part with a bundle. when the 1st thing would be the suspension of me and my the organization has also been urged to engage with me on my so called shadow government. opposed to the curb for those inside me, i know it's hard to remain optimistic. we've been moving to us on a military. it's in the usual. ah, internally domestically. ah. the options for a political solution are running out are they never existed at all. the didn't have plans to hold an election next year, but it's being criticized by many as a way to grant legitimacy to military rule. florence louis al jazeera. it's been

a year of unprecedented climate disasters now. a new report shows the window is rapidly closing to counter the worst effects of a warming planet. and it shows that an urgent transformation of our lifestyle is the only option. our environment editor nick clark reports on this. this is the latest un emissions gap report. it's called the closing window, and it makes for uncomfortable reading to say the least. it shows the gap between where we need to be in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and where we actually are right now. the temperature has increased by around 1 point, one degrees celsius. since pre industrial times, the paris agreements goal is to keep the temperature right. so ideally, no more than one and a half degrees celsius, but we're not even close. current national commitments to scale back fossil fuels leave is hurtling to at least 2.4 degrees celsius in cold scientific terms,

this report tells us what nature has been telling us all year through floods, through fuzz, and through storms that were in deep trouble. and when moving from a situation of the climate, crises rapidly to the situation of climate catastrophe averages and the area to increase in temperature. so it will event merit increase in temperature $2.00 degrees. that to me for even more increase in parts of africa. so it's going to have huge implications, and they're gonna be very, an equally distributed around the world. and they will affect the people that are the poorest and most most vulnerable the most. now the report says to get on track, we need to reform the global economy from food systems to electricity supply from construction to transport. we need a total reset as fast as possible, but somehow that has to be done without leaving developing nations behind who are not responsible in any way for any of this. developing nations have not caused this

problem, but they're gonna have to be part of the solution if we want to keep the parents agreement and temperature or alive. because even if developed nations to historically have been causing this problem, even though they reduce them, which is to syria tomorrow, that wouldn't be sufficient. so we basically need to get all countries on board of this and to do so will require a new, a new way of thinking. of course, there are some signs of progress, for example, more and more renewable energy is coming online every day. but it's not enough and which nations need to step up before the window of opportunity slam shot or campaigning has been heating a bed of the 2nd round of presidential elections in brazil, environmental groups. savvy brazilian amazon will probably lose out no matter who wins on sunday. they say will be difficult to stop the expansion of mining and farming and protected areas. monica young kid reports from metal grosso to school.

i saw fighting the pump and an fierce, largest tropical wetlands tours from all over the world. come to watch where birds and wild life in the brazilian state of mud. grosso school 2 years ago with catastrophic fire destroyed much of this green paradise. leaving a trail of destruction and killing millions of native species. fogel glad it will segue said default ajar follows him in whiskey at the lands with fire, but the intensity of the 5, if seen in the last, he is not common. it's a consequence of the war strong in century caused by deforestation in the amazon and extensive forming by chicago with president able 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 sold 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, you saw fidelmo prison burleson are, is government has already dismantled and defended public organizations in charge of controlling the preservation of the environment. the pun, danelle is the size of many european countries. if there's no protection, it will eventually try out. both hernandez left her a rival for president reason as to rule of a 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 is 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 passed 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 may well be a temporary respite. the future of the bunker now in the amazon may well depend on the outcome of sunday's election and under capability of the next president to find a balance between defending nature while promoting much needed economic growth. monica and i give al jazeera but i now brazil, a prime minister just under order and is visiting scientists said new zealand scott base in antarctica. this rear visit by an international leader marked the 65th anniversary of the base origin says, cooperation in antarctica,

we'll help tackle the crises of climate change and biodiversity loss. last year, new zealand announced it was allocating $200000000.00 to rebuild the base. a civil society groups trade unions and students have been protesting and shrunk as capital about the countries dire economy. they're also angry that earlier protests were harshly suppressed. shalondria is facing its worst economic crisis in a decade, inflation is rising. many people are being pushed into poverty. michelle fernandez has more now from colombo 100. if you want, the government says you can see the hundreds of people that are gathered here at this rally are brought out by frustration by anger. albany can on the crisis that this has brought them to their knees. there's a cross section of people that are people from trade unions from civil society. as you can see, just the faces. it's not just rebel youngsters trying to cause trouble. basically, a combined people's movement to fight against what they see. injustice

mismanagement that has voucher lanka to his knees. now if you have more than a few up and on, and i bet we want to come to where everyone can live, even as a member of the middle class that i'm finding it very difficult to survive. me and among the different messages we're hearing from the said to day, it's about stopping the privatization of state enterprises. it's about managing the country better. we've also had a major pushback against state repression against the government's violent crackdown of people standing up and speaking out against what they see is wrong. now, one of the speakers who was very closely associated with the protest movement in recent month basically told the gathering that if the government thinks that they're going to repress and quieten the people's voices, they have another thing coming that the more the government cracks down the more did deploy police and the military,

the more the people will rise up. and then there's a limit to pre post patients. they're not going to be coward down. and that essentially seems to be the mood that we're feeling here. and this is enough, is enough on the u. s. economy appears to be bouncing back recording better than expected growth of 2.6 percent in the 3rd quarter. economy had shrunk in the previous 2 quarters due to high inflation, and rising interest rates. inflation in the u. s. has been at a 40 year high, sending the cost of living. soaring, consumer spending is up, but investment in the housing market has plunged you to surging mortgage rates and the european central bank has made another large interest rate hike. that is, that the, the, as the threat of recession looms over the eurozone, the banks governing council has raised the rate by 3 quarters of a percent and a bid to control soaring inflation. experts are getting more and more concerned about a surgeon, a respiratory illness among children and parts of the us. some pediatric wards have

been filled by children infected with what's called the r s. v virus. it usually causes fever, cough, and runny noses in those under the age of 5. this year it has arrived earlier. it has hit harder and it coincides with rising numbers of co of 19 and flu infections . william schaffner is a professor of infectious diseases at e vanderbilt. university medical center and he explains how severe this outbreak is . there is a pressure on clinics emergency departments and indeed inpatient beds in the pediatric facilities over much of the united states. this is an unseasonal time for r s b to be out there and it's a very large outbreak spread over most of the united states. and what are canada also most children acquire this infection when they're very young, they get over it. and then interestingly enough, they can get subsequent infections. but the 1st is often the most severe. and

what's happened is, for the past 2 years, because of all the products related coven related sheltering at home wearing masks not attending schools. the children haven't been together. so the virus has not had the opportunity to be transmitted among the children, but now all the children are back in school there with each other again. and so this virus has many opportunities to spread tagging. many children, very young to middle age children all for the 1st time. and that 1st infection can be very troublesome. certainly any child, particularly the very young infants who are not feeding, not taking their fluids, who may have a fever, they don't all have a fever, but who looks sick and absolutely.
