11:06 am
or gas. now some of the group members of the retina group that private company linked to the criminal have said that russian forces have begun to enter the city. although it's very difficult to independently verify a which slide is correct, this current point in time and the point is so intense is difficult to get access to that city because it's just too dangerous. but we also hearing, backed alongside, dr replied, there's lot of trench fighting going on for us. both sides start to fortify their positions. also getting ready for the winter. there's also been a lot of focus on the counter offensive going on in casts on a what is the situation there? weldon recurring and say that the offensive is continuous authorities and cost on say that they've seen some of the most intense artillery that they've seen over the last week. now the ukrainians claim that they shut down to helicopters, although again, very difficult to independently verify. the korean is also say that they have destroyed russian vehicles, resupplied and defenses, as well as

a command post in the city of medic, depole. now the russians having evacuating civilians, something move that version president of puget has publicly endorsed, but the ukrainian say any reports or suggestions that the russian forces are withdrawn from course on will a premature. they believe the russian forces the all withdrawing. i've been replaced by other forces not correspond is very important to russia. strategically . politically is the only regional capital they take. the stock of the was the only face. russian forces occupies west of that to me for a river or song, the gateway to crimea that russia next back in 2014. but it is a big case. i didn't point in time. the ukrainians managed to take her on. it will expose other russian forces elsewhere in the country. now say ukraine, there was a mis awe struck by the russians in the city of the recheck. commercial building was destroyed and one person was killed. but as i say,
11:08 am
the fighting around the east and the fact is still very intense on both sides, claiming that they have make, making advances. okay, thank you for that update i sent bag in clarity in central ukraine. meanwhile, was another nice of darkness for the people in the capital, keen, and 7 other regions across ukraine. after days are scheduled blackouts, the say energy company announced it wasn't enough. it's warned of indefinite emergency outages. russia has repeatedly carried out missile and drone attacks on ukraine's power facilities. western allies have condemned the attacks, especially in the lead up to winter. let's go to a hurry for said he was in cave to hurry fastly. let's talk about the blackouts. what is the latest with that? have you been affected? well, yes. what was the original plan? as of a couple of weeks ago was that there would be 4 hour long up to 4 hour long shadow blackouts are cycling through various parts of various neighborhoods through the capital. as the situation has got worse,
11:09 am
there was talk of those being extended. they don't always happen that and always last as long as the potentially might, but they have been getting more frequent certainly just anecdotally here in our neighborhood in central give they be getting more frequent in recent days. and yes, now there is this extra bit of information that these could turn into indefinite, unpredictable unscheduled blackouts because the strain on the energy system has become so great. and that is all because of this pretty relentless campaign of strikes on the energy infrastructure. we were talking to the energy minister just the other day. and he was saying that some importance of electricity modes in the system were being struck up to 10 times that repeatedly they get fixed on their strike again. and he said that this wasn't being planned by military specialists. this was being planned potentially, even in real time, by those with real energy expertise and substantial knowledge of ukraine, soviet era power system. and presumably, harry,
11:10 am
this puts all the more pressure on people trying to rebel their lives, rebuild their homes, you've been looking into that. how's it going? that's right. i mean, there are hundreds of buildings around kids that have been struck, a lot of them, apartment buildings. and so that has meant that people have had to either move out of the city or move into residential accommodation or stay with family and friends . and even as the war is going on, these apartments which have been hit and destroyed or seriously damaged, or there is a real will to get them back and being lived in once again. and we went to one apartment building, which was struck very early in the war. it was a real symbol of just how serious this attack on the capital would become. and we've been speaking to people there, one with an extraordinary story of survival. so this is my fled as you hear the if it still doesn't have her, hey, and adore alexey mar,
11:11 am
resolve is looking to the future. one we're a treasured past in this apartment will be rebuilt. causative, and it was often not a flat, it was a big all here. and with the, with lots of dust and loss of her glasses. her around on the 3rd day of the war, these images were seen around the world. a shocking demonstration that civilians in ukraine's capital were in the firing line. where no, yahoo, alexey and his family had moved to a nearby bomb shelter, only hours earlier. it's more strange it's, it's more amazing that. and my, my children asked me to move. sorry. my voice her, he's not in his folder and he doesn't understand what as war means, what the lexie and his wife maria lived here with their daughter and 2 sons. it was the youngest boy mikayla who came to them the night before. the strike not here,
11:12 am
went to our bedroom here and asked her parents, please let go to shelter because the television tells us that it's safe place and we have to go in and we move around now now and then that i think i think the floor appealed away and hanging in the void was the one that supported his son's bunk bed . so if you my voice wouldn't sleep in this room and this night i'm sure. yes, he does fellow residents res, tens of thousands of dollars in the days after the strike to buy supports to keep the building intact. now the key of city government is funding the reconstruction of all the affected flaws. what happened here?
11:13 am
back in february, it was a stock symbol of the sheer scale of the war that was coming to ukraine. the efforts to rebuild here are of course, pragmatic and required for those he used to live here. but they're also symbolic for a country that wants to demonstrate resilience. can you still visualize it in your, in your mind? because i remember how it it looked for alexi, there are no doubts about returning here. he wants to put his old apartment, his family's life back together as it was. if our angel was so strong to prevent us from the trinket we do not carry nothing, we was carrying nothing here. this will may be grinding on into the winter, but for lexi and his family. an important personal victory is in sight. very full sit al jazeera keith still hands on al jazeera and we'll take you to a scene bank in columbia that's preserving precious plants. climate change drives

11:22 am
be a defining moment for the face of democracy in america. he made the remark, during a democratic raleigh in pennsylvania. i didn't pay it alongside former president bark obama in philadelphia. state is a battle ground in the race to decide who control the senate. rob hugs, 3 days, 3 day. until one of the most important election was aboard elections in our lifetime. it's going to shape the outcomes going to shape our country for decades. the gum and the power to shape that outcome is in your hands. it's a choice of choice between 2 vastly different visions of america. vastly different from the president, donald trump has also been in pennsylvania campaigning for the republican senate candidate measurement. all this he took aim until democrats. i'm dividing pelosi

11:24 am
any electro success on the backs of a good mid term result for the republicans. no, as far as the democrats are concerned, they've changed their messaging in the last week or so, and certainly over the last 72 hours for such a long time. joe biden was talking about the threat to democracy. he was also talking about how abortion was on the ballad because of the decision of the supreme court over the summer. but that hasn't really resonated with voters, particularly as they go to the stores this weekend and find that their food bill is much more expensive because of inflation. and if they go to fill the car with gas or petrol is we knew it and the find out that was $23040.00 more expensive than it was a year ago. and so he started to talk more about the economy and how he believes he's helped middle class america and how he believes that with it, democratic majority, he can continue to do that saying a lot of the steps that he's taken to help ordinary american people would be stopped by the republicans,
11:25 am
and that's true if the opinion polls are to be believed. the republicans are heading for a victory in the house and possibly in the senate. and if that happens, joe biden will find that his presidency become shrunken. he won't be able to push through the agenda in the final 2 years from the campaign that he waged 2 years ago . it sounds to me in the plane with 49 passengers on board has crash, landed in lake victoria. the precision of flight was attempting to land at the cobra airport in the northwest of tanza, near 23 passages happened. rescued so far, that news just coming into us and we will bring you more. the un peacekeeping mission in cyprus is being criticized by both sides of the decades. long conflict un peacekeepers were deployed to the island in 1964 during valence between turkish and greek. cypriots in 1974. the conflict worse than when taxes force is moving in

11:27 am
the united nations is critical. we have open communication lines with both sides and we work closely with both sides on a daily basis. the buffer zone has an eerie stillness. it's a place that bill lies, the clamor of derision between people on both sides of it. time here hasn't moved on from 1974. it's a no go zone giving bygone snapshots of a conflict that took homes away from owners and left lives and property in ruins. even what was nicholas is. international airport is caught in the time warp. the structure remains, but little else the u n's role is to ensure its days as it is. the last time a plane flew out of here was in 1974 like the differences between greek cypriots and turkish cypriots. it's frozen in time both politically and physically. and now
11:28 am
there are new tensions. turkish cypriot leaders are demanding equal rights with the cypress government in negotiating with the un, or they may take undisclosed action. you always get more saber rattling when there are no negotiations going on to solve the cypress problem. and we've now gone a good 5 years plus without any negotiations. the un presence runs through urban districts and swathes of countryside. a 180 kilometers across the island. it's one of the longest running un peacekeeping operations in the world. now into it's 6 decade, with no sign of an end. andrew summons al jazeera, nicosia. the beijing marathon has resumed, loves a tea break because of their corona virus, and i make official say about $20000.00 people and running a race this year. chinese strict 0 coven policies has reduced the number of people
