9:05 pm
a grain export deal with ukraine. it's defense ministry says it's pulling out of the agreement, brokered by the un and turkey, citing recent ukrainian drone attacks against its black sea fleet. it comes just 3 months after russia agreed to allow exports to resume to stem a global food shortage crisis. millions of tons of grain have been able to leave ukraine under the deal, which has reduced food prices. the cranes, foreign minister, metro caliber responded with a tweet saying, we have warned of russia's plans to ruin the black sea grain initiative. now moscow uses a false pretext to block the grain corridor, which ensures food security for millions of people. i call on all states to demand russia to stop its hunger games and re commit to its obligations. our correspondence of covering this story from ukraine, from turkey, a and the u. s. resource order is in istanbul. mike hannah is in washington dc. first there let's speak to harry faucet in keith. so harry put the context of the required context around this for us. why is russia suddenly pulling out of this
9:06 pm
deal? for russia says it's because of this attack, but it is notable that russia has been signaling for some weeks. now. it's uncomfortable nature with this a great deal, at least with the way that it's been playing out of it has been protesting about the fact that it hasn't been able to export its fertilizer to the same degree that ukraine has been able to explore its agricultural products notably, grain coming from its southern black c ports. it had protested as well about a plan un investigation into the use of iranian drones in russia's military strikes on ukraine. saying that that might have been a reason to pull out of the grain deal. so it has been hanging this over the other participants in the deal for some time. what happened in the early hours of saturday though, seems to have either tipped the balance or provided enough of the reason for it to finally do this. it says that there were a number of marine based and aerial unmanned drones that attacked the black sea
9:07 pm
fleet, or the military vessels stationed in and around sebastopol in crimea. and that sir, it repelled that attack. but the governor, the russian governor of that area, is saying that this was the most massive attack on the black sea feet since the start of the war. and that sir, one of the vessels was lightly damaged. that's according to the russian account. there are reports though, it's about to say that ukraine is not making any official comments on this, but there are reports that more targets were struck, potentially including the new flagship of rushes, black sea fleet as well. and so that the mocker of and so that is the situation at rushers decided now that it is suspending its participation in this deal under which some $9000000.00 tons of ukrainian grain has been exported. and as you say, are doing quite a lot to try to reduce some of the price spike,
9:08 pm
some of the food shortages that have been in existence as a result of that. harry and key, thank you very much. we're so you're in istanbul now. turkey had stepped in a few months ago to get this deal done. were they blindsided by this, or did they get any kind of notice that russia was going to withdraw from this deal? well, as of now, there is no official statement from cora. yeah. the reason for that press is that president evelyn, and all of his cabinet member and the top 2 professionals are now in the city of bush times in the opening ceremony of the 1st ever locally produced car talk a factory. so after that we are, are hoping to hear from her and today also is the, is the anniversary of the conditional touch kentucky republic. so the officials here are quite busy with the celebrations as well. but as of now, as of now, as, as i said, there is no official statement yet. however, it is a huge blow to took his position as well. because tricky was one of the key
9:09 pm
reaching in reaching the deal. and so it was promoted the trick as magic success. and as of now, we do not know whether moscow appears to the decision notified or gave a notice to anchor or not later tonight, if you're going to hear about that. so the deal was reached in july after intensive pause that last 4 weeks between the united nations and key moscow. and finally, in the late july in july, they have reached and so now it seems that it is about to call us. but tonight we are going to hear the turkey reaction from aka or school. thank you very much. let's go to mike hannah, now he's in washington dc. mike, this is also bad news. the millions of people who were getting, you know, basic food supplies, grain, fertilizer was also part of the deal as part of this. so let's go back to what this deal was. remind us what that was. and also, if there's any reaction, either now or in the, in the,
9:10 pm
or soon from the un well, let's go back to where the started. it was in july when the un brokered 2 separate, but identical agreements with the russian federation tech here and ukraine, each of them signing separately. but each of the agreements being identical. now those agreements were due to expire on november, the 19th, and in the past 24 hours, the secretary general went on the record as asking all parties to ensure that the deal is renewed. but now rush, making very clear, it is walked away from the deal. it has an onset, its formerly informed, the united nations office decision. it is also called for an urgent security council meeting on monday to discuss the matter that may not necessarily take place . there are a number of meetings scheduled for monday to get bond is the head of the security council. it can decide whether or not to staff squeeze in the russian request for
9:11 pm
a meeting, but that has not been confirmed as yet. but this is a highly complex agreement that was reached now falling apart, had provided in the months since july when it was agreed, some 9000000 tons of rain around the world. i must just that as well that the secretary general it asking all parties to renew the deal. race concerns about rushes concerns that they would not getting their part of the deal, which is allowing them to move grain and fertilizer. the ticket re, general calling on western nations in particular to expedite allowing russian exports of their materials. so there may be some real concern behind the russians deciding to walk away from the steel. this will become more apparent in the days to come. and when, or if that security council meeting takes place. right, mike, hannon, washington dc. thank you for your coverage. matthew breeza is a former us diplomats and national security official. he says this is an insult to
9:12 pm
turkey, which helped make the deal. first of all, the fact that russia chose to break the agreement today is a huge slap in the face to turkey. the turkish government hasn't had a chance to respond yet. it's not only because they're opening the 1st ever domestic car factory and turkey. it's also because today's the most important national holiday for the turkish state, it's republic day. so it's like the equivalent of, you know, july 4th, independence day in the united states. he would slap in the face undercutting what was turkey's proudest diplomatic moment in decades. the fact that they were able to provide relief, really for the global south and, and stop russia from instrumental ising poor people and food. now that's all thrown out the window, so turkey will be furious, of course. then washington will be secretary of state blink, and warned a few days ago, actually, yesterday, that were russia to go ahead with this threat to pull out of the agreement, they'll be anger globally. because if you, you russia, call the ukrainian military attacks on military ships of russia,
9:13 pm
a terrorist attack. but terrorism means violence and harm inflicted on innocent people for political gain. and that's exactly what cutting off the green shipment would constitute. it's another tough to act against innocent people, just like russia is conducting with its attacks on civilian infrastructure and ukraine. but we have a lot more news coming up, including a warning for protesters in iran. the head of the revolution regard says saturdays the last day of what he calls lions, and the final face off brazil's presidential contenders go head to head in one last debate before sundays. run off vote. also taking a piece of guitar with them in sports, we'll be looking at what designers have in store for this upcoming world. come see what else? ah, there has been a suspected suicide attack in somalia, capital, mogadishu, police and state media say there have been
9:14 pm
a number of deaths to car bombs exploded at a busy intersection near several government offices on saturday afternoon. the 1st blast sent a plume of smoke over the city and several minutes later there was a 2nd explosion, as ambulances arrived on the scene, there are reports that i'll show bob is claimed. responsibility for this attack. hold on a lee as a senior advisor to the mayor of moment issue. we spoke to her about why the city was targeted. location was really at the heart of the sure symbolic place. and the minister nation was the content. yeah. between families and really about, you know, a busy time heavily used intersection. but again, you know, she is using all its tactics to scare and make some money in the capitol. some of the areas are soft targets just because it's used by the public. it is, they are located in large areas that are, you know,
9:15 pm
part of the city central. so it's really hard to sometimes prevent these attacks. but nevertheless, i think we have seen a reduction in the facts. the last attack was either the hotel high yet you know, there was an attack for nearly 48 hours. it just tells you that shabby is being rooted out, but they are really forced to be reckoned with them. and it will take time for us to be eliminated from the capital, but the look, it's ongoing. now we'll see a lot of tax, i am sure, just because of the ongoing government and community uprising that we are seeing across the country as supported the pakistan. former prime minister in ron conner, marching on the capital to demand snap elections. they have begun the 380 kilometer walk from the horror to islamabad. come on, hider is there and spoke to him. ron con enron on moving
9:16 pm
a bit of paper like coming out your greed came along, get through. we're going to run more than a 1000000 it's not my boss at no other option for the ruling government. generally, because our country brings us there would be at least a 1000000 people to converge on a lot more bought. and the grand finale they are due on friday, the board. what do you really know? your doctor march from someone who has 26 years of experience. again starting body from scratch and the building up to the biggest body bug is thought not. i feel that it will be at least a 1000000 people that i can predict. of course success lies in the hands of the
9:17 pm
almighty a lot, but i can predict that it will be the biggest ever gathering of people in history. did god and a good guy, margaret connie, miner's dog. wrong man from the prime minister. what did we talk about? 3 and for the election? that's been the number one demand. and why is it the number one demand? because we want the people of pakistan to elect a government to their vote. we do not want a foreign conspiracy backed up a bunch of criminals who spend billions of rupees to buy a loyalties of parliamentarians and bring down a government these. they don't represent people of pakistan, and it is evident from all the bi election where they've been wiped out. ah, it has been evident from the massive crowds you can just see for yourself today. i
9:18 pm
mean, this is just spontaneously. it's a, it's a vote against the government. people are sick of these crooks. 30 years, these people have been stealing from this country. their massive corruption cases on that. 60 percent of cabinet won't bail on corruption cases. and they expect us to accept these stooges, who are, who do not represent the people all we want is election, let the people of august undecided who the whichever government they want, but we do not accept them. and the problem is that because they realize that, you know, in the bi election, it's evident that they're, they're going to lose badly. they're running away from elections. so the dogs will only be, are you willing to all elections or not? i read that number latter day a rated. everybody will come out and a large number of books that we have been talking to expect already large done. now
9:19 pm
they diagnostic mormon iran gone, had been rallying at the board ever. then they were outdated, rama away in a wardrobe. nope. on her. then i had one of those. then going like what, what your later or budget on. all right, let's speak about all of this to shes via marie in islamabad. she is the federal minister for poverty alleviation and social safety. thank you very much for your time here on out a 0. enron con, says the government that you are a part of is afraid of elections, your reaction to that? well, thank you for having me, sir. oh, well 1st of all, i will say that ron is not only angry, but he's also very confused. as far as the elections that he's talking about. i don't think that is what in rounds on one's in round con wants bother at any cost.
9:20 pm
and ever since iran was ousted like, pointed out by your reporter as a result of a democratic, no want of no confidence from the parliament to pakistan. he's been very upset. and he is trying his never best to create chaos or to spread his trip to divide people. and that is all he's been doing well as well. if i could, if i can jump in, if i can jump in, if we're talking democratic credentials, his party has won 6 of the last 8 by elections. and it's also undeniable that he has huge, popular support. he is able to demonstrate that day after day. so that needs to be taken into account, doesn't it? well again, if you have enough time, one can talk about it. there were 8 by elections out of which are due by length due seats were won by pakistan. people's party, i come from that 40. we had do you one the other so on it leave that we won one of
9:21 pm
the seats. we defeated him round. com. the other one we did. he did the vice chairman of b g i o his daughter was contesting. so it was him actually contesting the handholding and the succeeds that in round con, claims to oh, when. oh, when american was standing as a candidate and said, although you'd be surprised that the margin of victory was not as much. so my question, well there's, there's 2 victories. respectfully 6 out of 8 or so victories. okay. but if he is, if he claims to be the largest political party, doesn't he have enough people for the 6 of the seats that he contested from? and still the people of those constituencies do not have representation in the parliament of pakistan. so what i'm saying is that he's a confused man. he's and that he, he wants bomber, he would, he would sit down with any one of whoever assures him this, the, the, you know,
9:22 pm
the seat that he lost as a result of a no confidence in parliament of this. so the capital city islamabad, where you are right now, he's been putting of defences to block cons. protestors from entering if the protests are peaceful in so far they are, why wouldn't they be allowed to take place in the capital? well 1st of all, you see, oh, nobody is being stopped from croc testing because it's everyone's democratic. right . and are, as you are aware that pakistan people's party also had a long march back in the beginning of this year. and we had old a much larger crowd than what im wrong on is showing today. so will the testers, they're low to go to islam about then will they be allowed to enter the capital? well, at that time around time was in father, he was a prime minister. he was putting the same containers. so i'm, i think that, you know, administration has to take precautions because the wrong,
9:23 pm
can you give him a few months ago? there were weapons in a way, you know, with people in the rally, and that was said by round hon himself because he said that i was a fit because people were on. so you see, the administration has to take measures these measures. however, i'm not to stop the protested as or anyone wants to read this piece for me. but these are just precautionary measures. what i was saying was that whoever was the crowd, they have all the right, but there should be no misunderstanding that a crowd can oust a government. because if, if a crowd asked the government, then we said, we don't need election. you know, i mean, i don't need to go back to my constituency and get what you did as a member of the nationalist. and i think that is a democratic process that needs to be followed. and there is democracy in pakistan that needs to be respected. marcia marie, you're the federal minister for poverty alleviation and social safety. thank you
9:24 pm
for speaking with us on al jazeera, we hope to speak to you again as the story unfolds. thank you. authorities in iran are continuing their crack down on anti government protesters. the revolutionary guard says from to morrow, there will be no more protests roja. so hannah, i'm talking now to the students who have always been pioneers and fighting arrogant powers. what's happened now as a few number of students say, echoing the voice of the foreigners returned to the nation, don't turn the universities into the battlefield of the u. s. against the nation. be careful because they want to deceive. you don't misuse the establishment. self restraint. i tell the few deceived women. don't be the cultural soldiers of the enemy. quit the evil actions to day is the last day of the riots. don't come to the streets any more. a daughter to bari has more on this from to run. it certainly
9:25 pm
raises some serious questions at this point with the main one being that the ongoing protests that are now in their 6 weeks will they be coming to an end because of a further crack down by the security forces. as we heard from major general saying, follow me, he said that this should be the end. whether or not his calls will be heard on the streets and in the universities is another story. we understand that as he was speaking and delivering that message in the city of shiraz, we saw a number of universities across the country and having demonstrations taking place where the students were chatting slogans against the government. what is not clear now is how much that will be tolerated after this point, based on what he said. it is clear that they want this and as quickly as possible. what comes next is really up to any one to guess at this stage. but i think it is very clear now that the tolerance that we've seen so far from the security forces
9:26 pm
at will be ending in the coming days. of protesters incident have march through the streets of khartoum against mediation talk led by the un calling it foreign interference. sedan has been grappling with deepening political unrest and an economic crisis since october last year. a thousands of migrants and refugees lead to europe every year in search of a better life. but as your investigation has found, many are turned away in borders or forced to join groups to keep other refugees from entering. the harding has this story. they are called europe's shadow army operating without an official name leader or government link. former greek officials say these mass individuals use force to try to keep refugees from entering europe through greece. verified footage off the coast of greece shows, members of the shadow army damaging boats carrying refugees and beating others no
9:27 pm
doubt, no shadow of a doubt that these crimes are taking place. that these are orders coming from the top with the consent of europe in union, which are being implemented which are being carried out by hapless members of the gulf coast guard. we've had cases where if you did were found and drowned, handcuffed many in the shadow army are believed to be refugees, themselves, bribes with the promise of asylum in return for their work to keep other migrants out. why had them the greek officer who interrogated me, told me very bluntly, you have 2 options. you either follow orders or go to prison where you face 10 to 25 year sentence. other images show men being assaulted for not wanting to take part shot. when i refused to join them, they beat me up. they stripped me of my clothes and threw me into the sea. several
9:28 pm
human rights groups accused the european union and states like greece of supporting the shadow army. as a way to keep refugees out, we have tens of thousands of people who report the same thing happening. the institutions of europe lead up in union. the greek government and other governments are committing one crime after the other against humanity. they turn the eastern with anyone into a watery grave on fibers. greek officials say these allegations are not true and insist their efforts to stop undocumented migrants from entering europe through greece are legal. is the great coast guard actively pushing back migrants in the gnc. absolutely not, we fully abide by the notion of, you know, we're building a bigger fund or blocking the whole long boards with that a key and hopefully that will get a lot of for it will make it much easier to prepare topics on
9:29 pm
a board. at least 1000000 people have tried to enter europe a legally through greece in recent years. but many find themselves trading one form of uncertainty for another. the risk of drowning starvation and violence mars their journey from start to finish and can end with no new place to call home. leah harding al jazeera. as still ahead on al jazeera, the most expensive city in the world. now residents in tel aviv are worried about being priced out of their homes. a game one of the baseballs world series produces the biggest, come back in 20 years, will have faro with the details later the sell. ah

9:32 pm
one man created a peaceful microcosm for boys whose fathers faced each other in battle. episode 3 of football rebels enters the world of footballing legend, prag, cushy h, who went from coaching boys, football to teaching young men live. frederick push each of the siege of sarajevo on al jazeera lou. ah, you're with al jazeera reminder of our headlines this. our officials in south korea say at least a 120 people have died following a crowd surged at halloween festivities in sol. another 100 have been injured. there's been a suspected suicide attack in somalia, capital mogadishu,
9:33 pm
at least 10 people have been killed. another 35 have been injured to car bombs exploded at a busy intersection near several government offices. and russia says it's suspending. it's un and turkey, a brokered grain export with ukraine countries. defense ministry says it is pulling out due to recent attacks on its black sea fleets and speak to mitre of babich in moscow about that. he is a political analyst at it know s m, i an internet media project. so why is russia really pulling out of a deal me tree a deal which established a vital food corridor including for millions of people who have nothing to do with this war? well, i think the main reason is this morning at there again, they are russian vessels. great. near in the border of several doubles. the russian ministry defendant said that it was done by a brigitte c drones operated by ukrainians,
9:34 pm
but also countered by a u. s. airplane, which coordinated the tv just like it is that we're no losses in crimea, but you probably know just that president bush and the russian government in general. i'm very sensitive about any strikes against the graeme here. you know, the problem, the west and ukraine can see the grey me are a part of your brain and they think it's a legitimate target. but russia considered crimea a barbara with territory. you know, there are millions or russians live in that. so basically, i think the message from pigeon is don't touch creamy if you touch it, every time will respond. in a very, very cautiously. remember the recent bombings over there, ukrainian infrastructure, they, they were treated by that, that, against the crimean breach, which russia said was done by your premiums. and in the 1st days after the attack that you bring in government open be celebrated. this effect saying that it was
9:35 pm
effective. so i think the message from murphy is, don't do it if you do it next time, it's going to be war and war. and i think the other reason is basically russia expected that sanctions against russian. great next but will be limited part of the deal, but that didn't happen there. western insurance company, if i q bought roman shooting the vessel which could transport the russian green to the world markets. basically, it's the main reason. so i was going to ask you about that because this deal was supposed to be a win win, or at least certainly both ukraine and russia were supposed to have found some advantage to this deal. so isn't russia also hurting itself by tearing up the deal? i don't think so because the u e. the european union did not pull feel, it's part of the new the sentence, but not least that so russian green steel stays in russia also, i think,
9:36 pm
or the other reason. and why wouldn't decided to do it is russia is interested in ukrainian grain no stain in your grade because ukraine due to their a war and due to their loss, a civilian that war. it would need these green more than they knew the country. so we understand the polite of the african nations and made it very clear that he wanted to count them bob 1st more so they ukrainian grain, their point, been taken out of ukrainian ports. it never reached africa. well, the me, the, we're just 2 or 3 ships, 2 or 3 vessels to reach syria. and so don, all the other west us went to europe, went to the european union. so would had been criticized in this deal for about 2 or 3 weeks before basically tearing it off today. so i think her roster was just disappointed. this was a good deal to keep away. they're very important. and boys, if you,
9:37 pm
for all in broken it by the rush, is accusing acute in the e. u of not full feeling. it's part of the new and infusion, the west in general, all not fulfill in the applications had made through babbage in moscow. thank you very much. a rally has been held in london for people who have died while in custody. those who have lost loved ones took part, including the family of chris kaba. he was shot dead by police through the window of his car just last month. sonya guy, ego reports since 1999 this remembrance protest had been how's the commemorate? last live eating goes in custody. medical secure unit started by a group of black family since they was in discriminatory, targeted by the police. in the recent case of 24 year old chris. * a construction
