4:22 pm
millions of people to shelter and make shift camps for meals are far and few between and with thousands of basic medical and sanitation facilities shut down. mothers to be are struggling in unsafe conditions with no access to health care. when the flood is there, the whole water body become infected. there is no safe water them. so now save water. lot of infections combined living outside the house is these all make of grave situation for, for any country, for any area. so if the, if the women not already anemic, they are having multiple pregnancies. they do share and the daily listed in high chance that they will be effective. very tediously flooding has caused waterborne diseases, spread fast. pregnant women and children are most at risk of facing lifelong illnesses or even death. pakistan already had one of the highest rates of infants
4:23 pm
on maternity mortality rates in the region before the flooding. agencies warned some of the long term concerns are an increase in unwanted pregnancies and child marriages. pocket stones, governments faces an economic crisis and it's appealing for international aids to help those, especially in rural areas. authorities estimates it could take half a year for the flood waters to fully recede and with winter arriving soon. millions of park is sunny's or facing an uncertain few months ahead. so to hide it al jazeera. let's bring in that la, take him masking pride on the deputy representative of united nations population fund in pakistan. she joins us live from islamabad. la, take a thanks. so much for being on this news, our are more women going to die as a result of having birth, having to give birth in the displacement science. thank you for having me and this program. yes, there is
4:24 pm
a high interest or pregnant women dying from parental causes. now because we know that more than 2000 have been damaged, that also includes comprehensive bugging centers and b, a bobbing centers. which means that women who are in the condition whereby they may not be able to help us to be for skill and care, which is definitely a, increases the risk for preventive care. and it's not prevented. right? yes, and it's not just a lack of medical supplies, is it? this is sort of a multi faceted issue. it's. it's the medical supplies, but it's also the likes of something as simple as, as privacy. yeah. yeah, definitely in the place. i think the ground you can really see that the next turn when we did the 50 audit could see that there's no lighting
4:25 pm
privacy. 5 not nearby washrooms that they can use what's to be very far off. the women actually waiting for you to get out really going to the so not only their own health and safety. it's also about risk kaiten agenda be by and by ty, prevention and mitigation, major gender. why have also been very critical, right. so that is just yet another factor that these women have to face. what is the ratio of midwives to the community in this emergency compared to that of an internationally adequate amount of women in the existing not even even normal circumstances. when we look at the ratio or made by the population budget here. if we have way to less, we only have around $100900.00 data. so we
4:26 pm
are far behind the ratio and we would 980000 advice to be able to reach our target of 70000. like what does that by creating the target? so we need it done the availability of a nurse as the country already. and the more that we have a little situation impacted the health systems. i'm stretched human availability to the moment. so you can imagine the vision in the ground and whether you do access those and just on your point that you made earlier about the agenda bank to violence. how is that being addressed and how widespread is this problem? has it increased as a result of, of these women being displaced? yes, this is a pre existing condition. it depends on the positioning in a society discrimination social now. so i'm how it was very under wanted
4:27 pm
a phenomenal. so indeed the situation definitely. there has been to report that has come up, but we know that extend the database findings is very high and there is a high interest in the condition of being in us be they don't have a lot of safety and security and privacy as me knowing the sites, so it has a higher than the rest of the women and girls in there. and there are measures that needs to be, especially for the woman. and they're not having was facilities and other factor and women and women, and all the subordinate relief items that has been provided in the ground for the women headed council. they have not been able to access those as well. so there are measures that need to be put in place to really need to get a being in the ground. there
4:28 pm
requires a strong referral and mechanisms whereby remain a mental health and a system support as well. because we know in the ground that women have to leave a one die. so they are in a very stressful condition. decides i know if you're in a mental health and that kind of multi faceted issue. yes, unfortunately i have to leave it there. we've run short of time, but we appreciate you raising this very important issue. the take in mesquite credit on the deputy representative of the united nations population fund impacts time. thank you. thank you. stacey. now where thousands of people are falling sick with color and the outbreak is spreading fast, at least 40 people have died. health facilities are struggling for basic supplies,
4:29 pm
including water and are unable to provide care. many people are dying at home as they are unable to h hospitals because of gang violence in a change of pace. it's now time for the weather is evident. hello, we've got a few showers in the forecast for japan over the next couple days, but for much of east asia sticking fine and dry, the larry of low pressure very close to hawkeye to bring you some cherry rain through northern parts of han shoe. though the south central and southern parts should be fine, and roberson, pleasant autumn, sunshine temperatures at around 19 celsius, a similar temperature to into so some of the temperature to into beijing much a china will be dry over the coming days down to water. se were a drawer and in some very heavy rain, very close to our tropical storm, which has made its way across the philippine snakes that mass of clouds swirling away. now punching out into the south china sea, south of that's generally, it's going to be a case of heavy showers,

4:33 pm
go into an election run off on sunday. twitters new owner. a lawn mosque has been getting please and demands from band account holders. after taking control of the social media company. for me, you as president donald trump, who was banned after the capital, who riots. welcome to the takeover, sang twitter is now in saying, hans christian salome explains from you. ilan mosque appeared at twitters california headquarters as his $44000000000.00 take over. the social media platform was beginning to sink in mosque who'd already changed his twitter title to chief twit confirmed the news in you guessed it, a tweet on friday morning, but it's how free the bird will be. that is of most concern to users. his 1st move was to fire c e o par agog, or wall and top executives. it's no secret that the tesla c o thinks there's far
4:34 pm
too much censorship on twitter. there are concerns amongst people that i spoke to that people or accounts that have engaged in disinformation or misinformation or forms of harassment. bullying may be allowed to stay on the platform in a way that they previously have not. must previously said he'd reinstate former president. donald trump, who was banned in the wake of the january 6th riots. trump responded on his own social media platform friday that he was happy. twitter is quote, now insane hands. but musk announced plans to form a content moderation council saying no major content decision, or account reinstatement would happen before they met and appealing to advertisers must tweeted that twitter obviously cannot become a free for all hell scape, where anything can be said with no consequences. must has pledged to follow the law
4:35 pm
of the land, but that is a concern and authoritarian countries where twitter has historically resisted calls to take down anti government tweets. some of those rules are going to mean that people in certain countries you have a very lot down version all, all twitter, whilst others, another much more free wheeling experience is going to be a minefield or had to operate after 9 years as a publicly traded company. on friday, twitter now under elan mass, val paperwork to have it shares removed from the stock, mark it on november 8th. the 1st official step to going private. while some employees were terminated on friday mosque has pushed back against reports that he planned to cut 75 percent of staff, but he has not denied that big changes are ahead. kristin salumi al jazeera, new york and masks views on content. moderation have already spent conversations and reactions online. he's promised to create a council with a widely diverse viewpoint to make major decisions on content. but some were quick
4:36 pm
to use the example of facebook, which has a fairly diverse oversight board. but rival groups is still unhappy with the platform in the us, and it's a global problem from facebook being banned for sparking riots between muslims and buddhists in sri lanka, back in 2018 to india, where misinformation spread by the ap has been repeatedly linked to religious violence and in the emma investigations revealed an explosion of hate speech on the platform. at the start of the ringer refugee crisis. experts blamed facebook for creating chaos in the country. let's bring in ne it tico sham opponent. she is the south asia editor for the tech of journalism organization. rest of the world. she is in that new delhi. it take a thanks so much for being on the program. what does masks takeover of twitter mean 1st free speech and the spread of misinformation for india?
4:37 pm
oh, well, you know, content moderation is a very tricky, tricky topic. and we've seen it happening with all social media platforms, whether it is facebook or whether it is instagram and even clubhouse for that matter. i was looking at some figures and it seemed like in 2021 of facebook was spending upwards of $3700000000.00 on content moderation and had $30000.00 moderators on its platform booking for towards this. and yet the, you know, we've seen the challenges that facebook has spaced, particularly in india where, you know, cases of heat, speech, cases of politically motivated content, et cetera, have come up with the article after every few months. so content migration will be a very big challenge for twitter under mosque to navigate. it has been a challenge even now. i'm what is that on anybody else in as a result of those,
4:38 pm
the violence and the height space? what does that then result in? what impact does that have on democracy such as indian it, it, it does have a very you'll world impact, you know, because we have seen several instances in recent years where arguments of conversations that begin on social media gets talk, will arise that there are really what it impact real world like you know, problems because if it, whether it is to do with things they can or stalking to do with or something to do with like community violence and writing in regions and areas and mob lynching and such. so there are very real world consequences to hit speech and uncontrolled free speech, or sometimes politically motivated or community motivated speech on platforms like to window. so regardless of what mosque introduces on the platform, does the indian government have the tools to police twitter in a way that's tangible? but it is, it has been an ongoing endeavor from the indian government to ensure they cannot do
4:39 pm
to ensure that social media in the country is a safe space. the problem that our aim, acute problems to doing that in india, particularly that a lot of our policies predate the advent of internet, which means that there are challenges to how be moderate. this are a lot of laws in the works right now which could come in handy when the government for the government in the future. a one very acute problem for india is the problem of local languages. we have 100 major languages or 100 major languages, which means that when it comes to content, moderation, you need moderation. and all of these language is not just in english. so i feel like it's the government is working towards solving these issues, but it's going to be an ongoing battle and we don't have to wait and watch as to what must eventually does. because, you know, he's also free speech absolutist, and he's also said that free speech is what match it matches the law. so
4:40 pm
a lot of unseen for now, do you think it will get worse or better under mosque in terms of the weapon zation of twitter and social media more generally? i think it's too early for me to comment on that. what i feel like i deserve wait and wait and watch what happens in the next month or so. but i would say that it's not like what it is in a very, it would. there wasn't a very good place in terms of when it comes to indian law. me goes an indian law even without musk. and now with musk and power and with some change is expected. and every one sort of, you know, keeping a close eye. it, it might be a little more challenging if things change while we really appreciate your inside say it, take us sharma, finance the south asia editor for the tech journalism organization. rest of the world. thank you. thank you. violence against journalists is on the rise and more attacks are threatening press freedom across the globe. u. n.
4:41 pm
statistics show at least 74 journalists have been killed this year alone. and most of the cases go unresolved among the victims. is veteran al jazeera journalist, sharina abu acclaim. she was shot dead by israeli forces while covering and his riley rate in the occupied west bank. the most dangerous country for journalists is mexico. at least 18 members of the press have been killed there this year alone, marking a new record also high on the list. ukraine at pakistan, the philippines and brazil. ok. joining me now on set is a friday at merrill, which she, he is the executive director of the international press institute front. i thanks so much for being on this program. thank you for having me out. is there a jealous? as was mentioned, she was killed this year along with dozens of journalists every, as we've just heard, despite admissions by israel, that it was most likely israeli soldiers. there has been no justice for her case.
4:42 pm
if there is no hope of justice for she reign, what hope is there for some of the lesser known journalists who have been killed while reporting? i mean, serious cases, particularly appalling because she was killed in broad daylight wearing protective gear, showing that she is a member of the press and to your question, in terms of how to ensure justice, it's to ensure that there is a continuous campaign just because there is no justice now that doesn't mean that they should never be so campaign needs to continue from outside. sharina was named by i p i as the wordpress freedom hero. so an eminent panel of editors recognize this and we will continue campaigning as will the other freedom press read them organizations. and what we have seen is that when they're a high profile cases, something can get done or the statistics are that only why me 9 cases of killings of journalist to become resolved where the perpetrators are
4:43 pm
convicted. but what is important is the ones that are resolved are usually the most high profile cases, so we have to continue campaigning. we have to continue bring it on the agenda of those governments who can do something, which in this case is these railey government. but also those governments who are on the side line who have partnerships with withered government, they should also be the ones demanding for justice. we just heard from the previous guess about the power of, of social media in terms of, of hate speech and, and misinformation violence can manifest itself not just in a physical way, but a lot of journalists are facing violence on line as well. absolutely, and this is in a way, a precursor to physical violence. in many cases it does 2 things. first of all, it tries to threaten the journalist so they don't continue doing their work to frighten them into giving up their journalist work. but 2nd of all, it creates an atmosphere of impunity,
4:44 pm
and this is even more appalling when it's done by political leaders. it does create an atmosphere of enabling those people who might actually take violence into their hands and do something physical against those journalists. it makes them feel empowered and enabled is an appalling trend that we have seen on a political level in many, many countries. in democracies as well as those countries which i know democracies and this is something that needs to be attacked. and this something that needs to be eliminated. what we have also seen is threats against female journalists, which are particularly poignant. what we have seen is that female journalism more often targeted than their male counterparts. and then holly's that we've just run short of time and sorry, friday, but we really appreciate, appreciate your time on this issue. it's an important one to our raise awareness of frannie mae ravage the executive director of the international press institute.
