received full bullard send his leg on and off to dad. emron con, a speaking about the fact that he had already spoken in september about a conspiracy that would have been behind closed doors to eliminate them. and he had said that speed, she said that in case he is eliminated, that he has already left the recording which will name don't be below what in war. but he also singled out of the country's prime minister, the interior minister, who would be blamed for extra judicial killings saying died one of the senior officers of the intelligence job was enrolled in that particular conspiracy that they wanted to make it look like. there was a religious fanatic trying to kill him, ron con, because he was against religion. they were trying to accuse him of blasphemy. or if

a thing that our former governor salomon talk seed was carried by his guard on the same grounds that he had committed blasphemy that they were trying to malign him. so indeed, here has been divulging deed dares no holds barred death and of god, singling out the government. he said that because he was prime minister, it was so hard, so it says within the government, warned him that dia tag would take place on, on this particular long march and id should be care for him. so he said he was in form. and edwards made to look as if this were a religious for now take one to 2 dogs to him because he was against religion. the idea committed blasphemy. the speech instead of going on by obviously because his body had given a call a full countrywide protest. they've been fort distorted across the country and it will be interesting to see what kind of policy there the leader of august on teddy

can south gonzalez. great. what happened next? i is this broader going to continue country wide? is you going to come back on the long march ray when he was stopped during the 7 day that georgia on thursday ran the assassins tried to dog him and i've gotta get it now. a white spread perception, dad, there was more than one is sashon and was that the man who confessed on camera wardrobe, basically a decoy. so a lot of details and you also mentioned the fact that the government didn't fall off including the of finance minister, had confessed that he was a money laundering, a money alondra for the study family. and that, that should eve, wanted to eliminate him. so a lot of details started coming out, emron looking confident and he was sitting in

a hospital gown. would this leg bandaged heavily with a bluster on it? if god has been filling the doctor that he wants to go back to that particular march, so most likely that march will continue. we don't know when he will be fit enough to get back on that can dana. but certainly singling out a t p. but in this particular incident, including a senior officer of the bugger sony, i aside, i did the into services intelligence and major generated face that in a sea of the country. the interior minister run our son, our law, and all the go, the country, the prime minister, shabani. all right, thank you very much, appreciate the update. as always come on honda live for us in islamabad and how much as i is the secretary general of punjab provinces pakistan to rig in south padi that's in ron cons. party. he says there's evidence the government is behind

an attempt on his life. the reason why we are saying that this is a part of a conspiracy. is that iran himself on 24th of december in a valley. and in a, in a, in a televised address. claimed that there was going to be an attack on his life, and the attack was going to be labeled as one by a really just phonetic, so as to rule out any critic status. so we've been my party, my, my colleagues, we have been harassed and we've been changed and we've been up by work have been picked up on multiple occasions by just getting through gene. and now this attacks comes forth, which was entirely predicted in it's gripped by ron con, so it end the end, the way it has 100. i mean that as soon as they're active please, we saw the killer come out within a few minutes with the confession and claiming to have done it on really just guns . and then once the, there was a lot of water and there was of put in the police as well, but the use of this with you,

our confession of the killer. we saw another video after a few odds by the same guy claiming some different so. so all of this is happening on the very mysterious and suspicious circumstances. as has been the case of many of the events that have occurred in buckets on the last 6 months. we do feel that this is all just coming from the same string of events. it was a security gotten around iran under multiple security guards that he was on top of a container that was moving with the guards on around. so it's not that there was no proportion to, and i think that this was a plan to finish an attempt on iran and skip the slide to other world news now in russia's president says, civilian should begin to leave ukraine's hair son region as keep troops push for the south, let me put a, made the comments as he marked rushes national day of unity on friday. it's his 1st acknowledgement of how volatile the battle for his son has become. ukrainian forces

have been advancing towards the city for weeks. the russian army says more than 5000 civilians are being evacuated. h dame keith is describing the moves as deportation to finish the victim. now of course, those living in hillstone should be removed from the zone with the most dangerous military actions taking place. because the civilian population should not suffer from the shelling from the offensive counter offensive, or any other actions connected to the ongoing military activities. let's bring in harry force at who joined us live now from a cave, harry, what's behind me as sense of urgency in her son? well, that's a question that, that many trying to establish the answer to. there is a great deal of obscuring, of what exactly is happening in and around her son. but for some time now, russia has been urging and instructing the civilian population of that key city to

full back across the river into the area of the house on province, on the other side of the river from the main city of her on her, on one of the areas that russia recently annexed and said would be solver in russian territory from now on. now, let me put and hasn't been speaking about it in those terms. up until now, but on this day has chosen to on this national unity de also coming coming back with some of the more familiar language in terms of fighting nazis. the never debility of the conflict with ukraine, the west trying to make an anti russia out of ukraine. but as you say, that has been a response to this from the ukrainian side as well. they are saying that sir, these evacuations of civilians amounts to forcible deportations. at least in some instances, and that the signal in coming from you train about the potential for military withdrawal along with the a civilian withdrawal that the russians are effectuated. that,

that could be some kind of a provocation that they may be trying to draw ukrainian troops into a st battle inside her. so on the gradient, intelligence has been talking for some time about the troops, they're being reinforced. so there is a very difficult to ascertain picture around this very important city. but what is clear is that a lot of the fighting is now focused here, has been since the ukrainians announced their counter offensive back in august. and it seems to be coming to something of her head at the moment was just a something that we will have to watch very closely in the coming days and weeks and day. thank you very much for the update. as always, harry force at live for us in key as get a little more now from an fat bag who has visited a village in the her son region we taken by ukrainian forces last month he spoke to residents about life and a ration occupation. we still don't know what's exactly going on with the her son offensive, but what we have heard is that the ukrainian military has taken back

a village to day. why is that significant? well, when the ukrainians take back of small village or town, what lays ahead of them are open fields, which means that the russians have to retreat a considerable distance to get cover. and it also means ukrainians can move the i to reform and strike at a greater distance. now this village in her son was taken back by the ukrainians a month ago, but this school was hit just last week. now what that shows is that even though the russians may be retreating, the still able to strike targets an infrastructure at a considerable distance with their missiles without he equally things in it. while we spoke to people in this village, and they told us about their experiences whilst the russians were here. no, we were in idaho, and i do not understand what kind of referendums russians can have during the war. yeah, under the muzzles of machine guns. no. from on each street. several soldiers with machine guns accompanied people, forcing them to what were you in?

is up there. erica her. this is a garage rocket. it destroyed everything, killed my ducks after the blood. i was pulling them out from under the rubble. yeah . yeah. cuz the animal who, oh, nice yoke wish i survived world war 2, but i never thought that the russians will attack us. they were here. i saw them, they walked in every house, and i wanted to say so much to them, but my son stopped me. he said, don't say anything to them, they will kill us. and again, although this village is taken back a month ago, we're still hearing constant artillery shelling and missiles being fired overhead and also the russians firing back. so although people here trying to return to life as normal as it was before the russians were here, the war is still ongoing. foreign ministers from the g 7 group of nations, continuing with meetings in germany, high on the gender, russia's war and ukraine. china's growing economic dominance and runs crackdown on

protest is. the ministers will also discuss food shortages in africa. that fasten is live for us in ones to hello. they step certainly plenty on the agenda there, including warnings of severe consequences. if moscow uses nuclear or chemical weapons, what can we make of that strong language being said or made by those ministers? well that was absolutely a strong statement, a part of the general statement that they have released earlier. and they said it was absolutely unacceptable this irresponsible nuclear rothery care coming from russia. and also any use of biological, chemical or nuclear weapons, would definitely be very much a met with severe consequences. so they also said that the false claims that russia, that, that ukraine is preparing a dirty bomb was absolute nonsense baseless they said,

because that the d international, atomic energy agency has found no evidence for that. and they also said that ukraine could be commanded for it's france piracy. so very strong language here from the g 7 foreign minister. so meeting here in this historic town of moonstone, they also have decided. busy they need to help ukraine to get through the winter. that's one of their main topics that they have decided here. they said that the nearly 40 percent of the energy infrastructure is now been destroyed in ukraine by a russian attack. so, so they have now set up some kind of coordinated mechanism to see which countries within the g 7, a can prevent these kinds of attacks in the next few weeks and months, but also to make sure that these and achieve facilities can operate again because of course winter is coming and it's already there and it's going to be cold and very dark. so that's one of the really topics that they have decided on. then there

is iran de also really condemned the use of unmanned drones by a iranian drones or by russia in ukraine. and they also have condemned the crags out by iran on protest us in the last couple of weeks. so these are the statements that mainly have come from the g 7 here. all right, thank you very much step, but thanks for the update step bass and live for us in the munster hunting morehead on this news. our including india's capital chokes in smog. will tell you why every winter pollution turns new delhi into what many call a living helm. it's almost a very, very bad c o hawks sitting on never go away. how a failed. so she'll experiment in denmark still haunts survivors taken from their families 70 years ago. and coming up in the sport,

the houston astros are closing in on the world series title barrow will have all the action a little lighter. ah the u. s. mid term elections are less than a week away. and it's seen as an, as the most consequential boat in the generation al jazeera spoke to, to boaters with their visions for the us. i'm wrote the blenny, i just got no choice today. i am officially a us citizen. now i am super excited to be participating in the voting process the from our own. my name is maureen cruz and i voted in every election that i've been eligible for that since 1970. i think if you look at globally, there's a lot going on right now, right. we only see the oil prices sort of shooting up, be see all the russia ukraine war going on at the same time. china trying to become

a supercar. we have multiple problems. people don't have a living wage. housing prices are, you know, skyrocketing counterpart homes, student debt, that's an outrage to not rage. you see the inflation rates to the roof. so for us as a family that's becoming harder and harder to be in a decent livelihood. we also see that and we are heading a lot about recession coming. there's been really a devolution of quality of life for people in this country. and i think that's why people are on edge. you wouldn't have january 6th if people felt comfortable in their lives. and of the b, b out of democracy, we all should be abiding by the law and the constitution. and then there are individuals who sort of try to become more and above the constitution. i think it's, it's, it's dangerous to any democracy. people are feeling disrespected and they are our government spend disrespecting people and we need to get back to respecting our

humanity. let's bring in steve clemens, who's the host of the bottom line now does airs weekly show he joins us from washington, dc. hello this, dave, thanks so much for being on the program. great to see you. great to be with you, emily. well, well, i guess the question is simple. will by and have a democratic controlled congress for the remainder of his 1st term. well look why we don't know what's going to happen the election, so we need to make that clear. but secondly, we have lots of indications that it's not going to be a good night for president biden. there's a lot of concern and you can see it in the posture of democrats in the white house as they're scrambling around the country to places that were considered safe for democrats. and we've seen in polls and increasing rise in republican support around the country. people that are worried about inflation, worried about crime, worried about the jobs and economy. as the democrats have had other issues that they have talked about. 1 but right now it's looking troublesome for president

biden. stay, this is an unusual though. is it a trend in american politics? is that the party that holds the white house often loses seats in mid term elections? is historically, it is true that, that particularly in the house of representatives, that when, when a president holds both chambers of congress, as the democrats hold the white house, the senate in the house right now, that historically, what they call the mid term elections, dozier elections for just about everything except the president, that at that moment you get a swing the other way. but that is a swing that doesn't have donald trump in the picture that didn't have a january 6th interaction that insurrection, that didn't have a lot of these complicated tense features that democrats thought would play to their strengths of looking like responsible stakeholders in the democratic process . and thought these other things would be, would be elements that to boost them rather than the republican. but the

republicans have done very, very well of staying on message on crime and inflation, which the president hasn't been able to, to have as compelling a hand. looking at some of those other election issues, what is the end of the national abortion protections and also the rise of election denying republican candidates had on the momentum for democrats. has that been enough to kind of push they popularity? well, if you were talking to me 4 weeks ago, it looked like the decision about abortion, where the supreme court reversed a decades long decision that gave um women the right to abortion and are severely now curtailing that and putting that responsibility for states to decide that animated the entire population, we saw republicans put back by their own a supporters worried about an extreme position on abortion. so that look like it was going to be one of the dominant issues in this race. but it is just faded, it's faded away. and as you said, we have over 200 people up for

a major elected offices in states and around the united states that will have some role in election machinery. and many of them are election deniers that deny that joe biden won the election legitimately. and that donald trump last and these people are on the ballot. you would think that that there would be some results. i'm sure it does animate some democrats, but at least in the polling, i, i hate mentioning polling as boeing as so often wrong. but when you look at the amalgamation of pulling out there, it doesn't look like those issues are rising to the top of concerns that what really is up there is inflation, the rise of goods at the, at the, at the grocery store, the cost of gas at the at the gas pump, and also just looking at crime, the sense of crime rising in american cities around the country. so those are the issues that are taking over from the ones you mentioned. it's certainly going to be

a fascinating at fascinating to watch. no matter what the result is, we appreciate your insights and no doubt we'll talk again. steve clemens, the host of al jazeera is the bottom line. i think he moving on now in some staff members at twitter say they've already been locked out of their work. email accounts. as a mass lay off is underway at the company. they believe in a long mask acquired the social media platform last week. now the companies are facing a class action lawsuit from some former employees who say they were not given enough notice under federal law that they lost their jobs. about 7500 people work for the company based in san francisco. musk has indicated he may fire around half the work for chris stock. walker is a technology journalist based in the u. k. he says, mosque is clearly making drastic changes to the platform. well, twitter has never necessarily been a particularly well run company. it often be losing money and ill on must cause by

all accounts over paid for what he's all $3.00. he bought it for $44000000000.00 at $54.20 a share at the time that he made that offer. it was a significant increase on what the share price was being traded up. so i think what we see here is an element of utah must trying to call back some of that loss that he's making and also probably also reshape twitter in his own image. i don't think it will ever go offline, although it is certainly in a very tumultuous situation. either must cause his own vision for what twitter should be entities significantly different from that which is pre assess road is have high. so i think that we're in this awkward phase right now where he's essentially cutting the company and deciding to undergo suppose some short term pain in order for what he hopes is going to be a long term game. but the real issue is whether or not that's actually going to happen. i've seen 3rd party data that estimates that 875000 users have voluntarily

left twitter over the last few days since he took over. and that has a huge impact. it means that this site is less meaningful, less important for lots of people, including advertises as well. but it has an impact on all of us uses as well because there's now half the number of employees to look after us and to monitor what is said and to make sure that there is nothing nefarious going on. air pollution in you jelly is soaring to dangerous levels, spurring coals to shut schools in the indian capital. 50 percent of government officials have been asked to work from home. alexandra buyers reports. this is what hazardous air pollution looks like. the 20000000 residents of new delhi, our breathing, smog. some of the cities, most famous sites, now hidden in some areas, levels of pollution are nearly 40 times the maximum recommended by the world health organization. it talk to them go to go to court. i feel

a shortage of oxygen in the planting trees are dying. there's no greenery in the pollution levels. very high. the government's asking people to stay inside diesel cars and trucks are banned from entering the capital. construction has been stopped and some factories close. the government announced primary schools will be shut from saturday, following calls from parents and other groups. very good football rosella berg, but when we wake up in the morning, we feel that we should not send our children to school. the conditions are so bad that when we go to our balcony, we feel difficulty in breathing, but a lot of new delhi is the world's most polluted capital. one study found more than 17000 death in 2019. were linked to air pollution. every winter it's blanketed in smog as cold, heavy air traps, dust and pollution. another major cause is cropped burning by farmers in the

neighboring states of punjab and haryana. a problem that is often politicized with opposition parties seizing on who is to blame, but i'll give you some of that awesome. out on the issues. double burning can be resolved by assisting the farmers. no. but cussing them the central government in india's ruling bra tier, to not a party should apologize to the pharmacist set of blaming them. they should also apologize to the residence of delhi, the chief ministers of punjab and deli, say they're doing all they can to tackle pollution, but are calling on federal and state governments to work together. prime minister in a rend ramadi has said india will aim to stop emitting greenhouse gases by 2070. that's 2 decades later than a goal adopted by the u. s. and at least 10 years later than china. back in the city, this smog is expected to last for days, and more emergency measures are planned. but without major changes,

the millions of people who live there will have little choice, but to adapt to what's fast becoming a new normal. alexandra buyer's al jazeera, still ahead on al jazeera hong kong, most high profile sporting event. max to come back after 3 years, due to the pandemic, and counting down to the qatar world, come this evening. so gets in the mood farrah. we'll have those details in schools . ah. hello, we have some lovely spring sunshine across much of south america. last it's clear skies. still a few showers across into northern parts sir. and east part of the amazon east. there is the brazil pushing right up towards the caribbean, but for many, lots of sunshine, $28.00 celsius in ascension, getting up to $25.00. therefore one,

does it lou? ah ah ah hello. you're watching out a 0. i'm emily anglin. he's a reminder of our top stories. the sour pakistan's, former prime minister in bron. com says he has information, a group of people plan to assassinate him, can, has addressed the meeting for the 1st time since being wounded in a gun attack on thursday. russia's president says, civilian should begin to leave ukraine's her song region as keeps troops push her the south. let me through to made the comments as he marched to russia's national day of unity on friday, and

a foreign ministers from the g 7 group of nations that continuing with meetings in germany high on the gender, a rushes war in ukraine. china's growing economic dominance and ron's crackdown on the 22 green landed children were taken to denmark's capital copenhagen for a social experiment 70 years ago. only 6 of them are still alive and they are seeking answers as to why they were forced to take part in the project. hashem aha barra spoke to them. helena thiessen, spencer all was recalling the past. her childhood memories are vivid. she still remembers where the 2 men came to take her from her little house. you knew the capital of greenland 70 years ago. she was taken to a ship preparing to say for a long journey to denmark, why should i go up that leave my mother?

why didn't like my, as i said yesterday, that i feel me so lonely and when we good, it's a bit i every night or shy, helena was among 22 and knew it children chosen for a social experiment carried out by danish authorities in 1951 the goal was to turn often children into members of a more than grey land, but not all of them were orphans. when they arrived in copenhagen, some were sent to an orphanage and others to force their families. journalist unacquainted chin herman says the experiment was part of a danish scheme in the 1950s to maintain control over his former arctic colony. so the plan was to show the rest of the world that greenland was a natural part of denmark and needed to remain part of den, like through integration rather than autonomy. and is this where the children come

into the picture. helena spent almost 2 years in denmark, she was told never to use gree land dick language. and when she later went home, she struggled to communicate with her family members. why didn't she answer me? and then a little after she is answer me and said something. and it was like my life broken because i could not understand her. the experiment was a failure. by the time the children were, we united with their families. 2 years later, they say the fell traumatized. that child hoots shattered. it took the government decades to apologize, but helena still feels angry and hurt. it's a r s b a very very bad thing in oh heart said no. i never go away. only 6 of those forced to take part in the experiment

austin alive. we know little about the others. apart from some has suffered mental health problems and alcohol abuse. and one who took his own life and end of life would never be the same again. she never managed to reconcile with her mother who couldn't overcome the regret of letting her child be taken away from her. a story that serve as a reminder of what helena described as a dark chapter in denmark's history about his era. copenhagen, norway is refusing to take responsibility for rescued migrants on board. charity boats flying its national flag. it really is urging no way and germany to take charge of almost a 1000 migrants stranded in the mediterranean. 3 charity vessels have been off easily cause for more than awake. they've been waiting for permission to dock and all their requests have been rejected. jim and chancellor all of shields has called

on china to use its influence on russia. president change in ping, acknowledged by jing has an important role to play in pace tools in ukraine and warned against the use of nuclear weapons and the conflict. the 2 made the comments and during short says visit to beijing, the 1st by a g 7 liter. since the start of a pandemic, he's been holding talks with she on economic cooperation and is also commented on the war and ukraine saying that too late is a grade nuclear threats were unacceptable. patrick fuck has moved from aging. when remarks made to premier league a chang which were no doubt directed also at his critics a back home and elsewhere and europe. germany, chancellor said that it was clear neither germany nor china were fans of decoupling . but he said that reciprocity was key and there was important the both sides had the same sort of investment access. you also said that was important for both countries to avoid dependence. remember, there have been a lot of voices in berlin saying that,

so germany needs to reduce reliance on autocracies like china, particularly falling rushes invasion of ukraine. but the reality is, journey is facing some severe economic headwinds record, high inflation looming recession or no love. sholtes is certainly of the view that sir corporation with the world's 2nd largest economy is necessary, like it or not. earlier in the day, he also met with president she jumping present. she said that the trip would help build mutual trust between the countries. and he also said that corporation was important in these times of quote, chaos and change for him. this is certainly seen as a big wind coming shortly after he secured a historic 3rd term. as a china's leader with many am, it's saying that this helps legitimize his power grab and his new government. south korea is military, has deployed fight a jed softer detecting around 190 north korean war plains near the border. it comes

after a series of missile launches pipe. young young mcbryan has the latest from south korea's capital. so a lot of military aircraft activity happening. the length of the korean peninsula, both north and south. the south korean military have announced that during the day from late morning local time through to mid afternoon here. they have been detecting flights by around 180, a military aircraft of different types in north korea. right across the, at the breadth of the north korean part of the peninsula. but some of those aircraft movements have been close enough to the dmc that separate the 2 careers to a trigger, the scrambling of its own south korean jets in response as a precaution. so they have announced that during the day they have a scramble, the total of 80 aircraft. they're taking to the air among the latest f, 35 fighter jets. now it, all of this activity from north korea seems to be in direct response to ad drills

which have been taking place jointly between that south career and us air force. it's all week involving some 240 military aircraft. this is enraged at the north, as it often does these joint military exercises to hong kong now, where the most high profile sporting event has returned after a 3 year high ages. because of the pandemic. the rugby sevens traditionally draws thousands of fans from around the world, but the event will be most of june this year, as jessica washington explains. woman can play it at hong kong. biggest sporting event return. that as hong kong 7th tournament took place in the seventy's. now it's back up to a 3 year pandemic haters. so having the own come 7 back is 1st and foremost. great belief. it's been difficult 3 years for, for us and uncle rob union, i need to run the community here in hong kong. hasn't as for so many other people, but to actually have live sports events back in the city is fantastic to

3 days and difference this year. while quarantine requirements have been removed from visitors to hong kong, face masks are mandatory, and stadium capacity is kept at 85 percent. and there are limits on entering bars and restaurants in the city. but officials are hopeful. the rugby and other international events this month will help provide its economy. how many little more activities of the cupboard situation is under control. so that we can move ahead to reconnect hong kong with the world authority and say the city is looking to host more sporting events next year. hong kong is back to normal and we are ready to welcome more into this home calling the great city of life. so we look forward to your visit st. covenant and restrictions took home on the cities economy. in 3 years, almost 300 travel agencies have shut down due to the lack of visitors. most of the

countries, the open up an interest have a choice. and then under this situation, hong kong we just not, not be on the cities economy has also been impacted by an exodus of residence, who feared the crackdown on since and the growing influence of beijing in the cities, political and legal system. major events like this have long contributed to hong kong reputation as a thriving international business hub and an attractive place for people to live and visit while this year's tournament will be different from years past summer, just pleased. the event is back. we had a bit of a high a to some see the last 3 years will be difficult for everyone. i think people are kind of relieved that the sevens might spock a little bit of a return to hong kong being that city that everyone loves city that has undergone so much change in recent years. the return of the sevens is an exciting moment to think of washington out to 0. unesco say,

some of the world's most famous glasses will vanish by 2050 and it's urging late is to act fast to save the rest. the un agencies report says a 3rd of glass views at 50 world heritage sides condemned to discipline, including those in yellowstone and kilimanjaro national parks associates losing $58000000000.00 tons of ice every year. that's a combined annual water use of france and spain. the melting lacey's are responsible for nearly 5 percent of the global rising sea levels. mccadden is a climate change expert at the strongly national university. he says a glass, your mouth is speeding up the planet fresh water crisis. when, when a glassy melts, what you see is an immediate increase in water availability downstream. and so it gives a false sense of security to people. they think there's plenty of water, but once they close the mills, you have less and less water during the summer period. when typically that melt

occurs, and that means that things like irrigation, downstream or supply of water facilities, is going to be interrupted. and so less water in the longer term, even though we may get a little bit more water in the short term. but that water in the short term can also cause di, seal likes to disrupt. so often these lakes are formed by the rocky debris, the sort of rocks left by glacial melt previously. and so they formed dams, and sometimes those dams can break and you get catastrophic flooding. and we've seen a couple of instances of that lightly where we get really big damage downstream. so in obviously that water has to go some way. it ends up in our oceans and that's what, why we're getting sea level rise. and part of that sea level rise is due to places in those world heritage areas and everywhere else as well. melting bustier is about 4.5 millimeters and, and that's quite scary. and so when we look at how that propagates out into the

future, we see really significant threats for low lying islands and low line areas such as in bangladesh or other parts of the world. and. and so there's multiple contributions to that. so glassy is the one contribute to that breakdown of ice sheets like on greenland or another. and that also expansion of the ocean, as it warms up, is also a contributor. when we add all of these up, we actually ending up with quite scary scenarios. at a low level, perhaps a half a meter, let's say level rise by the end of this century. i'm at a high level a meter or possibly more by the end of this century. still, hey, don al jazeera looked behind the scenes at cats as high tech solution to manage crowds during the world cup. barbara has the date out next. ah.
