a sink make about what you will. so ends a 6 month saga, filled with accusations and legal challenges. his 1st move as head of the company was reportedly firing at least for top executives, including the seo and chief financial officer. he announced the acquisition by tweeting the bird is freed, but the european commission was quick to remind the billionaire that in europe twitter will have to quote fly by our european rules. there are certain activities which are not compliant with the, with the rules regulations in laws in the number of states, things related to a speech, to criminal activities, to terrorism, etc, etc. i question salumi has more on all of this from new york yellen. musk has long said that he wants to roll back restrictions on the platform. he's said in the past

that he would reinstate former president. donald trump, trump, you may recall, was removed from the platform for tweets that were deemed inciteful relating to that capital riot where violence broke out at the nation's capital. this is raised a lot of concern among civil society groups who say that they want more content moderation. not less. they're worried about hate speech and misinformation permeating the platform. if he goes through and does a rollback, those restrictions must seem to acknowledge these concerns in a tweet that he put out directed at advertisers. on thursday, he explained his vision for the platform, saying that he sees it as a public square where people can express differing views and debate, differing views, a way to bring people together. but he also said that it couldn't be a free for all hell scape,

where anything could be said with no consequences. and clearly he's concerned that advertisers might be turned off if people start withdrawing their platforms, their profiles in protest of his acquisition. president trump, however, expressed some remarks and made some remarks in response to the takeover. he said that he is glad that the platform is now in, quote, sane hands. he made that statement on his own social media platform, which he started after months after he was taken off of twitter, the husband of us. how speaker nancy pelosi has been attacked during a break in couples home in san francisco. the assailant is believed to have shouted, whereas nancy before beating 82 year old paul pelosi with a hammer. nancy pelosi was in washington, dc at the time of the attack with her security team. her husband is now in hospital, but it's expected to make

a full recovery. she harbor 20 joins. it's now from washington. d. c. she have one assumes that there would be tight indeed, very tight security around the pelosi household. we know what happened, how this happened. only one, nancy pelosi is in the household, but the leadership of congress in the senate and the house got 24 hour protection from us capitol police. but that does not extend to family members. it doesn't extend to just normal rank and file members of congress unless there is some sort of specific threats. and they've been, they've been elected to and they think that the some reason for, you know, for, for, for 24 hour monitoring and protection. so the 20 for our capitol police unit was with nancy pelosi, who was and who was in washington dc. we're getting more and more details now about the attack. we're expecting a press conference as well, from the san francisco police department to begin at any moment, but we're hearing what we have so far. as the attacker cut around 2 24 am local

time the intruder got into the back. he attacked 82 year old paul below see with a hollow who suffered blunt force trauma on the head, and the body has swelling, but it is expected to to recover. the latest information we've just gleaned from us sources is the suggestion, but the intruder was trying to tie, pull, pelosi up, and was trying and wouldn't wait for nancy pelosi to eventually arrive at the house . this is, this is the latest about what we're getting from some us sources. we're expecting about police that police press conference to occur any at any moment now, she have were less than 2 weeks to a major election in the us. are there any connections being made at this hour between the attack and the political climate? we just don't know what the motive is at the moment, or we know all the details that you've mentioned via taco came in. specifically

looking for nancy pelosi. we do have some statistics we know from the us capital police that a number of threats to members of congress a skyrocketed over the last several years. for example, between in 2019 there were 303930 9 traps. and he's verbal threats. we should, we should be very care. 3939 traps that were recorded by us capital police by 2020 that had risen to 9625. but very few arrests. very few actual incidents of violence. busy of any sort, and in fact in the, in the us capital police, his own words, most of these are just people with quite mental health issues pose absolutely no threat. so we always have to be very careful about that difference between angry rhetoric, violent rhetoric and actual incidents of violence, but clearly off january and 6th. clearly with some of the rhetoric. and we're saying from some political candidates for them, for the mid terms with the democrats being accused, for example, if their child abuse bringing in illegal immigrants to spread french,

long's people to kilo republicans. and so there is that high tension that january 6th insurrection will generally drive to the capitol hill, where in fact nancy pelosi was also targeted by some of those who invaded the u. s . congress in january. so that's better, is that sense of height and fair and on the department? homeland security has in fact warned of potential political violence, but the actual incidents of violence are relatively low, but that threats, that sense of threat is very, very real look. thank you very much. i know you'll be following that press conference when it happens, so keep us surprised of any developments. thank you. a fighting is intensifying and eastern done thus, russia is shelling the cities of mc alive and batman where there is a fierce battle for control. it's forces are edging closer to seizing the city. mercenaries from the russian military company, wagner group were also involved. i said big has more now from backwards. there's

exchange of fire taking place between the ukrainians and the russians. the russians have made some gains, but they still not in blackmore, the ukrainians are said that they have managed to repel those attacks. and everywhere around us is signs of destruction. you can see the car burnt out behind me. there's buildings on the other side. you can see that they've been damaged for shelly shelling and rockets the powers out in this city as well. and constantly, we are hearing the battle and is fighting, taking, taking place. now, what we do know is that we were here back in may not the route that we took into back with. we can't take that routine anymore because that roach, the russian forces have eyes on that road and can target it. so we have to come through a different route. there's definitely few people out in the streets. many people have already left. there's no electricity at, but there is

a significant battle taking place. we have seen increased military activity in the us from the ukrainians are here in this earth in this city, but also how many people are choosing to stay in the seller's inside. even here you can see that the are, the power cables are down. a ukrainian power company says russian attacks on the power grid have cut capacity to the capital. keep my around a 3rd. most recent russian strikes have led to warnings. the rolling blackouts will be longer and more frequent. harry faucet reports on how keith's residence or coping. when darkness falls or the keys, it falls, heavy streetlights turned off. household saving power, neighbourhood, cycling through blackouts of the weeks of sustained russian strikes on the countries energy grid ukraine's president, using the darkness in his nightly address. not near. we are not afraid of darkness . the darkest times for us are not the times of the light,

news explanation from the government. it's usually all done through the internet and people here having to improvise generators or in scarce supply disappointment for natalia and alexander, who were looking for extra insulation as well. but that was also sold out back home . they say they're doing their part to save power, but almost everything in their apartment runs on electricity. for all their positivity, the pain of this war intrudes all too easily. memories of the last winter when they were under russian occupation in a nearby village, or informing their fears of the coming one. or you are the one in the mirror unless it, when they don't know how to fight a war. so they start bombing, the civilian side gets die. many people with disabilities already horrific things outside the late or to night is closing in, and the temperature is dropping across. keep across ukraine. people are bracing for a long, difficult, dark winter hurry. force it al jazeera keith still ahead on al jazeera pakistan's

into now province. several people were trapped under mud rescue. operations are ongoing, and the government says the number of casualties is likely to rise firefighters in spain and battling to contain forest fires raging in the bask region. there been record high temperatures and strong winds in the summer and fall, a local firefighters say dr. vegetation has contributed to the rapid spread. the bath country remains on high alert. the forest fires going into this weekend. if the opinion polls are rights, brazil is about to have one of the closest presidential votes, it has ever seen 2 days before the run off, there are just a few points between incumbent j, your boss, an arrow, and his challenger, louisa, nancy lula, da silva. and that is why eyes are on the southern states of min us should ice as our latin america editor or lucy, a newman reports. it could be the voters there who decide this highly competitive race. the capital of minas jed ace doesn't stop moving to the sound of campaigning . this is preserves more significant battle ground state. where left is candid,

lula desilva has a very slim lead. but i've been at once the incumbent president jane also now don't out of office. and she's appealing to women who make up more than half the voters. amazon, if i want to be bull scenario is a massage analyst and sexist man. he'd meet offensive comments to female journalists to women. he said that women should earn less because they get pregnant . so if bull sanara wins, women lose, i'm basically preaching to the converted way. why live here? most of the time is nearby a women and it move, read it. they want to make their presence and to throw their 3 minister dice is regarded as a micro sample of the brazilian electorate and a dis busy watering hole. politics is on everyone's lips or support on is

a film. no, we've never had anything like this kind of polarization of brazil before joe thought or thought both. and nora is my man. i'm not going to vote for a former convict. you have to be crazy to vote for lula ah, in this upper middle class neighborhood, also not a support. you sing the national anthem, dressed in the brazilian flag in line with their candidates, nationalists stance good. can stella? i mean, bold scenario is totally profoundly how can someone who supports the found libby against women is no way in rural blue. my venial voters tend to support lula, but abstention is high, especially among the poor, who often can't afford the bus to go to vote. i think one of the reasons why lula is spending lot of time in his relas immune us is his lack exactly. to try to make those voters go to vote. if this racism titus must predict every single

vote will count. especially here in ministered ice where no brazilian president has ever won without winning the state. to see a human al jazeera room, a dino brazil, a u. s. oil giant exxon mobil has smashed financial forecast recording its highest, ever quarterly profit that nearly $20000000000.00. the result eclipses the figures posted by rival oil giants shell and total in algae. here is hydrogen castro with more on those record numbers. the shortage in supply st. in part to the western sanctions on russia and the increase of man, especially as the colder winter months come in and profits with amounts by exxon mobil seo. today they shattered expectations with 1900700000000 and net profit brought in in the last quarter. and that's the 5 pressures from president biden, for us,

oil companies to increase production more drastically in order to bring down those prices. well, as a mobile anal today, it did increase production by 50000 barrels of oil a day during those last quarter. but that pales in comparison, of course to the $2000000.00 barrels a day in cuts that are coming from opec plus in november. and the fear of the vitamin ration is that the price at us gas stations, like the $1.00 behind me that, that only go up there down currently from the peak that we thought a few months ago. but the average today when i last checked was still $3.76 a gallon, which is so high for the average american and the biggest fear from the bottom ministration is what that will pretend for the democrats and the upcoming midterm election. japan's cabinet has approved a stimulus package of $260000000000.00 to tackle inflation. the package is designed to spur growth in wages and support households with energy bills and the rising

cost of living. funny sell me has more from tokyo. it's a very comprehensive bucket full of measures that the aim to help the life of people to help the employment environment to help. also businesses, especially small and midsize businesses who have been suffering very largely because of the after effects of 2 years of recession. because of the band to make and again, because of the increasing prices of energy and also many consumers now are facing the problem of decreasing the value of the in against the measure. currency, especially for us, which japan, japan had hit to levels that it hasn't seen for almost the 30 years. so all the materials that are being important to japan are becoming more very expensive. the

household now are being that energy build, which are almost double what they were a few months ago. and that also has been effected by the invasion by russian invasion to ukraine. so the but i mean, that has a know, almost $260000000000.00. the comprehensive becker's that would be distributed on the levels which i just mentioned, employment, the environment, the household, and also the businesses. and that could be another becker's that was going to be within the few months. again, unrest is growing in gun as its economy faces a major crisis. prices of basic necessities, a soaring and protesters, blame the government. fenton monahan has war on this call. the police didn't want to protest to happen. they banded the course, the rule. it can go ahead, but with strict limits on numbers, we 19 people were allowed to take part. i'm just not gonna we find on for this is

not a demo customer. we know i won't have any of those. we're trying to suppress this country of some of the, the will body has gotten shape. but this small march is a sign of larger discontent. gone as currency is plummeted against the dollar this past year. that's pushed up the price of import a time when inflation is already high. rooted fuel prices have more than doubled. we can't do anything with it. go to the market, whatever you have. what about voting up? you can't buy anything in the market. this is them. it's so hot and people have to check in and they look a $100.00 is moving faster, is affecting business, is affecting almost everything in this country. protest for say, corruption and bad policies. of course, the crisis. a broad coalition of opposition groups and activists are putting pressure on the government to come up with solutions. this is the beginning of many, many beautifully cub. if the conditions will not be approved, we will make the country on gov noble. present. that arrow has been holding talks

with business leaders to find a way to get the economy back on track, but on the streets, life is getting harder, and patience is wearing thin. than to modern al jazeera. after the world cup katara plans to start construction on 3 new museums, the doha 2030 plan will transform the countries waterfront laura burden. manley has been taking a look at what's next for the countries cultural landscape after helping to feed carter for decades. this know on doe hot water front will be given a new role by replacing flour with art, these towering fi, lowe's, a 35 meters tall, 8.5 meters wide. now the relationship between artists, curators and industrial faces like this isn't new. however, what cut me their names to do is to create a gallery while keeping the industrial integrity intact. we wanted to keep as much of this existing structures as possible,
