a prime minister benjamin netanyahu hopes to make a comeback. ah ha! on money inside. this is out here, live from dough or so coming up an apology from south chris interior minister off to stampede that killed more than a 150 people. police met the response, was inadequate. can you break from the office now? out of warning for us? well, companies president joe bought and tells them to keep prices down. we face high penalties. i'm natasha. name live on doha cornish. coming out. you'll get your 1st look at the entertainment district for cut our 2022. ah.

hello, welcome to the program. voting is underway in israel and the nation's 5th national election in less than 4 years. the prime minister. yeah. le pete has just caused his vote in tel aviv israel has been in political deadlock since 2019. when then prime minister benjamin netanyahu was charged with bribery fraud and breach of trust. they have been a number of coalition that governments and spend, but they're all failed to hang on to power in the connect it. i'm going to say the biggest issue of the ballot box is whether voters are willing to see netanyahu. return to power is liquid parties expected to finish as the largest in parliament is likely to fall short of a majority lesson. yahoo need 61. the seats to regain power. now to get them, he's tend to fall. right. politicians like been great for support. prime minister year you la pete is hoping to keep his job. he's the other side of the political rena with his liberal party. yes. a t also on the job is israel's defense minister

benjamin guns. the $63.00 old is a centrist, aligned with feet national unity party. as go straight to stephanie deca who is covering the election for us. she joins us live west, jerusalem. what's a stake in the selection while at the same time as it being the 5th selection and 3 and a half years is also a lot at stake. i think certainly if you look at who potentially could come into government, it is essentially if you break it down, a litmus test once again in popularity, context for benjamin netanyahu has his absence in the prime minister seat. may these railey heart grow fonder? if you will, people will tell you that this could perhaps be the last test for him. if he doesn't make it into office this time round, which would mean that we would see another election, israel fixed, potentially early next year. this is one of the scenarios that may be then finally

his political career could be over. but when you say what's at stake, it's what a lot of his ratings are talking about. that said, particularly those in the center and left that potentially though democracy of israel is at stake because if netanyahu does come to power and as you say those, those polls at the moment having the 2 camps really head to head. so this is a hypothetical, but if he does come to power was 61 seats or more, you'll have someone like it may have been given, come into a major cabinet post. this is someone who is at the fringes of the extreme right? this is someone who calls to the expulsion of all palestinians is somewhat backtracked on that rhetoric as the election heats up. he's someone who calls for the right of jewish prayer on the luck, the most compound something that is hugely inflammatory and a red line for palestinian. so this gives you a sense of how potentially this government could shift. it is also a concern for many israelis, but i think we'll have to wait and see turn out is going to be key. we're just about 2 hours into the vote now. and we'll have early prediction polls early exit

polls around 10 p. m to see if those predictions are correct and if there is indeed a deadlock, how tight this race is going to be a stephanie, they all 3 palestinian blocks running. how would they expected to do? well this is the question the previous election they ran under united dallas you also had for the very 1st time at palestine israeli party in government. in fact, this was a party that refused to join benjamin netanyahu last time round, which made him fail to get those numbers. so just gives you a sense even the smallest part, let's say with 4 seats. that's year in disraeli, electro threshold. 3.25 percent. if you get that, you get 4 seats. if you don't get that, if you just full, that's a point 5 short, you don't get anything. and these numbers are crucial when it comes to building your coalition. so the, the palestinian israeli vote is seen as crucial, particularly when it comes to beefing up the potential of year lap he to the

caretaker prime minister and beefing up his side. so i think that turn out is going to be keel prediction saying that they could play a crucial role. they are very much disenfranchised the population of policy and israeli saying that even though they had some representation in cabinet in government the last time, nothing changed. or i think there was a sense in the run up of these elections at their vote could potentially be crucial in stopping a far right wing come to power again. it's 2 already to tell tourney to call to any to predict so well, we will get a better picture in around 13 hours from now when we are going to see those 1st exit polls. okay, for now. thank you stephanie deck of efforts in west jerusalem. well, people in denmark are also picking a new parliament, 14 parties of vying for a 179 seats. the political battle is between the incumbent left wing block and the right wing candidates. the prime minister meta frederickson, was forced to call the early election after the so called minx scandal and popularity dropped off to the coven 19 policy to coal. the entire mink population

were free. dixon is one of the front runners. she has been prime minister since 2019. she is sent to left, but has embraced tightening. immigration policies for the to the right is jakob element jensen. he's the head of the liberal party. he is the 3rd generation of his family to enter danish politics. and as the conservative party leader sought an pup paulson, whose long been considered the most credible politician on the right was credibility, has sharply fallen off to a recent scandal. and there is former prime minister laws lock rasmussen. he served as p. m twice and is the head of the newly formed moderates. let's big the hash. hm . i bought a who joins us live from copenhagen. so give us a bit of background here. how did the coloring of minx lead to this early election? ah balloon. it was in july when one of the key

components of the danish governing coalition, the social liberal said to the prime minister matter, frederickson. it's about time with call for snap elections because they said the small, so 70000000 minks was a disaster. and they said also that a deal between the government of denmark and wonder that would pay the way for the asylum seekers to be santo $1.00 that where their documents will be processed and where that is a potential for many of them to stay permanently there betrays what denmark stands for, they gave an ultimate him to the prime minister and the said, if you don't go for staff, elections will walk out. and this is why she called for those snap elections. let me just give you a sense of what is happening here. a moline, i'm standing in this main polling stations in the capital. denmark, voter voting has just started. there's a long queue here,

and turn out historically has been very high in denmark, and this election is absolutely crucial for the danish people. it is perhaps one of the most historic elections in the modern history. oh, dear mark for, for, for different reasons. we're likely to see a shift in the way politics has been done in a, in, in denmark. historically speaking, it was always a government dominated either by the left or by the right. but this time things are changing. the traditionally conservative party is likely to lose in this election. but that is a suntrust party. the moderates, which is likely to make significant a gaze if the moderates lead by ah look, alas, mustn't the former prime minister gains 20 seats in this parliament is likely to become the king maker and his likely to influence politics in the years that shall come there is another party which has been emerging over the last few days wishes. the socialists are liberal, a party, a green left body,

which has been advancing the agenda for the need to move into clean energy and the in this party on its own. if it gains more sees to day, it is likely to become a key component of the governing coalition. now, all the polls suggest that the faulty of meta fredrickson, the shows social democracy on likely to become the biggest party. however, we have to wait and see to light off of a passes, who would win. thank you for that awesome alberta. speaking to us that from copenhagen, south korea's interior minister has apologized for a crowd surge during a halloween festival on saturday. that killed a 156 people and he submit the response was not adequate. and president used the keel has called for safety measures to prevent crowd accidents. rob mcbride is that memorial, and so he says the country is sharing a collective grief. these memorial altars have been set up across the south crim

shareholders. rosalyn jordan has moved from washington dc. it's 8 days before the u . s. midterm elections, which will determine the control of congress. and certainly, republicans have been able to make inroads with voters this year because of the surge in energy prices, particularly in the cost of automotive fuel. after the invasion of vaal ukraine by russia. well, the price of gasoline has fallen by about a dollar 2325 cents a cents midsummer. and that's because the biden administration put on the market to millions of barrels of oil from the strategic petroleum reserve. and also be said, see a bit of a drop in demand. and so that helped ease prices as well. but because the by the administration knows that americans look at the price of gasoline as a harbinger of how they're doing overall economically. this was a moment for the president to come out on monday and to say to voters that he is

still working this problem. now, democratic god, politicians on capitol hill have suggest it taxing of the companies who don't share enough of their profits with consumers. but so far that legislation hasn't picked up much traction and because congress won't be back of, for until the later part of november, it's unlikely that you'll see any positive movement on that legislation. before the end of this year, still ahead on al jazeera ah, waiting. the ball scenario support is if brazil's president long roads in protest against his laws, why they say the election is not if yes and not say magical experience for these guests at a disney resort in shanghai. that one in chaplain sign ah
