some of the worlds fastest runners, and where a terrible crime has led to a reckoning with gender based violence, a sense of community on a jesse era, finland had previously refused to join nato, but following russia's invasion, all you cried formerly requested to join the west's military alliance in poker terms. yes. put all in. i do not to believe that he is going to keep up the president of finland, talks to well, just era spiraling costs. dwindling supplies. the shock is being felt around the world with the war in ukraine, triggering gas supply uncertainty. europeans bracing themselves for an unprecedented winter. al jazeera reports on the human costs of the winter energy crisis. ah,

this is al jazeera. ah, it is great, dad you with us today. i'm cyril than yeah, this is the news. our live from doha coming up today in the show power outages across the russian control region. of course on moscow accuses ukrainian forces, a firing missiles that a damn how many will wake up coals? does the world do? world leaders actually need a cause for action. delegate said this year is un climate conference agree to discuss compensation for developing nations facing climate driven disasters. rescue operations are underway in tanzania after a plane crashed into lake victoria with 43 people on board. 26 have been pulled out and on the campaign trail with just days to go until the u. s. midterm elections, democrats and republicans go head to head in grounds, say,

and i'm far as small. have all your world cut news cuts are 2022 hopeful brazil l fires are all to the top of the english premier. ah, so we start this news our with the war in ukraine. russia media are reporting a ukrainian rocket attack is damaged to dam. that could lead to catastrophic flooding. ukrainian president bo mirrors the landscape warned last month the destruction of the nova cove damn in a russian held territory would cause a quote, large scale disaster for nearby towns and cities. the 30 meter high dam holds back 18000000 cubic meters of water from the ne pro river which cut through eastern ukraine. the dam is near the city of her son. as you can see on this map, which ukrainian troops have been pushing towards for weeks from the west,

in an effort to recapture it from russian forces downstream from the dam is russian controlled crimea, and it supplies water to large parts of southern ukraine. let's bring an asset base who's in creevy, re in central ukraine asset. as best you can make out what actually happened at this damn. what can you tell us? what is very difficult to say, what i can tell you is that the russians 1st said that the us supplied massage. i hit that, damn, the russian me just said that they're very made a point of making sure that everyone knew that they were, you supplied a missiles that we haven't heard anything from the ukrainians. but last month, the russians also said ukrainian massage, hit that damn now, from the ukraine side, this long been concerned that russia may try to build that damn. in fact, last month on the 21st of october, ukrainian president vladimir zaleski, and his national address warned that russia was plotting to blow them up and

claimed that russians had planted explosives, as well as urging west them paris to warn russia not to block that down because it would cause a large scale disaster. now what we are hearing is that her son is without an extra electricity, and the russians are blaming act of sabotage on power lines that that's what they're claiming. but this war has been full of information and this information came on counter claim, a very difficult to say, because we don't have access to the russian control territory. and the ukraine has have been very strict on media movement in her son as they get ready to mount that offensive. but why i can tell you is that the ukrainians are saying now the ukraine authorities are said that they are still 20 to 25000 russian soldiers on the west bank on the west side of that river. and russian backed authorities in her son have said that ukraine is moving large numbers of tanks and armored vehicles on the on the course on axis getting ready for that offensive. 3 the ukrainians have been

pushing forward on her san city. but that is very strategically and militarily important to the russians. it's the only regional capture that they've captured since the start of the war is a gateway to crimea, but also it strategic for the russian. because if the ukrainians get to hold of that city and it is still a massive, if it will expose russian troops elsewhere in the country asset update us on fighting in the eastern ukraine. what's going on there was a lot of it seems to be sent to the round. the cities and towns of more than solid are now the russians. us have said that the russian troops have been entering the city of back and forth, but the ukrainians have just said that they are still in control and that the russia, the ukrainian troops are unbreakable. now what we have heard is that there has been intense shelling, taking place that there's been also trench fighting, taking place. but the rushes have been trying to trying to capture the city of van

with for months now i was there back in may and there was a lot of shelling taking place. then we were there just last week. and again, the russians had edged forward, but still didn't control the city of boston within again, that is strategically important for them. it gives them access to roads to other parts of ukraine. but also the russians want to be seen as making advances. they have had some setbacks over the last few months with the ukrainian offensive, and they've lost san territory. and the russians are keen to show that they are still pushing forward. but as of yet, what we're hearing is for both sides, claiming that they're moving forward. the russians are saying that they're entering back more than the ukrainians are saying that they're still in control for big reporting from creevy re thank you very much. as you and the 27th climate conference opens in egypt, the world meter, a logical organisation, has just published its latest state of the climate report and it is made clear the

delegates will have a difficult 2 weeks to start. the report says, rising sea levels have reached record levels doubling since $993.00. the european alps lost a record amount of glaciers. antarctic sea ice dropped to its lowest level yet, and in september it rained for the 1st time ever on greenland ice sheets. all that because the last 8 years have been the warmest on record. it's affecting millions, and it's costing billions the horn of africa is experiencing its longest drought in 40 years, putting nearly 20000000 people at risk of famine. and there was widespread flooding in pakistan, for instance, killing at least 1700 people and effecting 33000000 others. there were heat waves across china, the us and europe, destroying crops and sending wildfires ripping through towns and cities. are planted be sending a distress signal. the late, the state of the global climate report is a chronicle of climate chaos,

as dwelled with logic organizations so. so clearly changes happening with capital traffic speeds, devastating lives and lively woods on every continent. already delegates had come $27.00 have agreed to officially add to the agenda. the issue of who should pay compensation for the impacts of climate change. for 2 weeks, representatives from nearly 200 countries will hold talks in the city of sherman shake expectations for this summit. are high friends, we are not currently on a pathway that keeps 1.5 in reach. and whilst i do understand that leaders around the world have faced competing prices this year, we must be clear as challenging as our current moment is. inaction is myopic, and can only differ climate catastrophe. now, petrie, tell us is the secretary general of the world meter, a logical organization and he says some progress has been made. good news is that

the 15 countries have been able to reduce emissions during the past 15 years, a small tv european countries, japan, united states, singapore. and they have also much better technological needs to be successful environment that mitigation the prices of being. and if you have been dropping, they had cheaper than porcelain, etc, is today. and, and also the prices of batteries and electric vehicles. i've been dropping and all altogether we have a much better means to be successful if so, some parts of the plant dowries suffering because of climate sense. for example, the horn of africa has seen a drought for 3 years in enrolled. and that's, that's a matter of life and it, well, many people in that, that read soon. so if we go to higher numbers of warming, and we won't disappear from the planet than the bias won't disappear. but the

living conditions will be much more osh. it's clear that the or the welfare of mankind and also for the global economy, the lower number of warming would be the best than that. these negative trend in a better patterson will continue for the coming the gates anyhow, meaning growing amount of disasters and impact supply chains. and if you are successful with the mitigation, we seized these negative trend into better sixty's and off at $430.00. if you have already lost the melting of laziness and sea level rise, a game that will continue for the coming under. so even thousands of the s, we've got a lot more coming up on the news. our including rights groups say it is in humane. why some migrants and refugees on a ship docked in italy are not being allowed off for health checks. i'm andrew simmons at nicholas airport in cyprus, abandoned in the 1974 conflict. i'll be reporting on rising tensions between

turkish cypriots and greek cypriots. and we'll show you how the houston astros won baseballs world series for the 2nd time and 6 seasons that will be with far, later to sell ah, the death toll from a passenger plane crash in tanzania has risen dramatically the prime minister. now saying 19 people have been killed, the aircraft plunged into lake victoria earlier on sunday 26. people have been rescued. the precision air flight from doris salon was attempting to landed macabre airport in northwest henson in alleviate here. come on. mm hm. yeah. when the aircraft was about a 100 meters at mid air, it encountered problems in bad weather. it was raining on the plane plunged into

the water. everything is under control. the armies had of rescue missions and firefighters from the province of guerra are on the scene. they are fully equipped to deal with rescues and safety rescue efforts are currently underway in order to retrieve the aircraft. the malcolm webb has more on this from nairobi. in video from the crash site, we can see the plane in the water of lake victoria tail fins sticking out in the fuselage below the surface of the water certainly wants to play with, with submerge that would have made it very difficult for passengers to get out or for rescue is to get in the plane, belong to precision, which is tons, and he is the largest privately owned airline. we've flown with them before we know what their planes like typically to carry few doesn't passengers. that propeller powered flight to originate from doris alarm, which is tons in a financial capital port city on the indian ocean. typically they'll do 2 or 3 or 4 stops in towns and cities around towns in the neighboring countries before

returning to that base. now the flight was due to land africa on the southwest, and sure, as of late victoria, this little city, just over a 100000 people. but the runway runs right up to the shore of the lake. we've learned that as the plane was coming into land in bad weather, the over shot the runway old on the daily and ended up in the water. in those pictures that we've seen from the italian authorities have stopped 35 people from disembarking from a ship carrying migrants and refugees, doc that a sicilian port because they were deemed not vulnerable. 144 others on board, the humanity one were allowed to enter italy and a 2nd ship carrying nearly 600 people. this time rescued from the mediterranean has been told that it may doc for a similar bidding process. humanitarian groups are calling the policy inhumane, and speak to somebody who is dealing with this right now. nicola,

stella is currently in international waters off the coast of italy on the ship, the ocean of biking, which has rescued more than $200.00 people from mediterranean waters. he's the search and rescue coordinator for the group s o s many delanie. nicola, are you those 1st of all? who's on your boat? let's start there. so we have one of the best. so the women chin, the men that have you asked me for one of the somebody said between the 22nd and 26, the feel better and the patient we had the doctor to request to come up with the indication of the place of safety to the people up to now we have spent more than 25 different amount of time on the internet for being assisted in what is the community

that complements the new teacher, ask you for every shipment to see these people have the. busy busy before taking them to see have and you are the team violence and the only possible in the media and have also to up to be the at c before been asking. so their condition was already better for a moment. and then the big thing that they have spent on board have have was that even further help us both from a logical and typical level nichol. i want to make sure i heard this right. you say that you have put out 25 requests to decide to dock and for those people to disembark, is that accurate? that is correct, that we have requested the me from the rescue. but

i'm competent to medical functional angel when the patient was conducted being vacation of a place of safety. this is exactly what the international convention of trying to provide for the mission of data for we have the agenda, our request, the to the next, the able to see sort of cooper from the tenant one. and then we have continued to request the indication of a facial safety sponsor has and has always been so basically we have no response to that. we're waiting. ok. so we'll talk about that. i would request to maybe turn around and face, but that so far again today to no indication of safety has come. and i want to

duty that the course i'll have according to the international conventions that they hold. ok, nicole said, just to recap, for years you have more than 200 people on your boat. refugees, migrants, women, you have young children, i know your boat, you've made 25 requests to disembark and so far it's been a know from italy and other coastal countries look, we'll keep checking in with you to see what response you ultimately get. thank you very much. you're welcome. pakistan's prime minister has rejected him. ron cons, accusations that government figures were involved in thursday's attempt to fascinate him. con supporters came out to show their solidarity in several cities shall. serif says con is damaging the country with false and cheap conspiracy. 6 he says he will resign if there is any evidence that he was behind the attack on con, they invest ravi joins us now. live from the hor, the government has put

a media band on coverage of speeches by enron con, but that hasn't stopped him from speaking. that is correct. he's been making regular speeches. city he is broadcasting live on youtube and then those speeches circulate across social media. like wildfire after the last piece she made at the hospital where he was recovering, he was moved earlier today to his residence here in little horror, just behind. he is now living here back at home under heavy security because as his supporters and many of the security apparatus guarding him say, the man is the next prime minister. there was an assassination attempt against him, and there may still be a target on his back, especially for politicians in this country that fit themselves against the military, against other political parties, against every institution. the country of nearly as iran has done,

it does not bode well for him. it definitely means that he remains at risk. im ron hahn has announced today that he will continue to march on islam about saying that as of tuesday, calling on his party workers calling on supporters to go once again to was year about where the attack on his life happens. where the attempted assassination took place. and pick up where he left off. he is encouraging party leaders and loyal party members. to go from there to draw attendee for protest, looters from other cities to join him in ra indian 2 weeks where he says he intends on meeting them. and then continuing to march on his law bob from there, it certainly does not bode well for the government that says he will not be allowed to enter. and it certainly does give pause to the military that is headquartered in rockville. and now one of the criticisms against con, has been that he is not willing to negotiate, not willing to engage in any dialogue to the prime minister about sher it's credit

. he has reached out to con, on several occasions to say, let's come to some sort of agreement in ron on has said that the other criticism us run hans political party has been that he stays say, that the prime minister, the interior minister, the senior army general these people were involved in coordinating an attack on his life in was 0, but then why have they not filed a police report to launch an investigation into the exact situation of hash and to that effect his party leaders have said that they want to name all 3 police are willing to take on the civilian leaders, but they are not willing on, willing to take on the army. the military to that end, the senior member of them are on cons. party had this to say this been sent to do out and you can see the push to information report that the group to go investigation has not been that we have not been able to really just to that because the part is, is that you can file enough, i out against prime minister,

you can find in a fight against the intended minister, but we will not play left out against the sitting major and iran on believe that in the past. in the see, it is one of the main accused in this assassination attempt, and he is not ready to remove his name from the fire. show him run hans tardy has a master an enormous portfolio, even though he's been ousted from this seat as prime minister. his party is in control of the job of hydro, bought province of guilt to both the son, and he has an enormous position from with, from which he should take part in more political dialogue. yet he chooses to continue to focus on his st. power is something that will continue to create instability in pakistan for weeks yet to come as an of us ravi in the hor, thank you very much. at u. s. president joe biden says,

today's mid term elections will be a defining moment for the fate of democracy in america. it made that remark during a democratic rally and pennsylvania, appearing alongside foreign president, brock obama in the city of philadelphia. the state is a battle ground and the race to decide who will control the u. s. senate wrap up 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, a choice between 2 vastly different bridges of america. vastly different and for a president, donald trump, for his part, was also in pennsylvania. campaigning for republican senate candidate amendment or was he took aim, a top democrats under biden,

follows the humor and the radical democrat congress. your commonwealth is being totally destroyed. our country is being destroyed, biden and the far left lunatic. so waging war on pennsylvania energy, crushing pennsylvania jobs, gutting, pennsylvania communities, and strangling pennsylvania families with soaring prices like you've never seen before. rebecca ruther is, is a lawyer and vice president a fair election center. she joins us from washington, d. c. so rebecca, it's great to have you on the show. joe biden says democracies under assault brock obama agrees with him. election deny is running for office across the country. as a lawyer who works for fair elections. how concerned are you about these mid terms? sure, i'm very concerned about these mid terms because democracy in the united states is under attack. we see many people in the conservative party who are trying to pass

laws and trying to figure out ways to make less americans who are eligible to though not allowing these americans have the ability to vote. and the idea of free and fair election and the right to vote by eligible voters is the bedrock of american democracy. is the 1st time that americans all over the country are going to the polls since the presidential election of 2020. and since of course, the storming of the capital, are you, are you worried about that? i am concerned what happened? january 6, 2021, with its rection. it was a ride against the united states. it was certain factions within the united states deciding that they didn't want those who showed up to vote to have a voice that matter. it was people who decided that they didn't care about the election results. so now the 1st. ready mid term, this is the 1st national election post january 6 insurrection. and so we're looking and we're seeing who it up for democracy on tuesday. help us understand why

election denial gained so much momentum in the us since january 6. i mean, we know now that it wasn't just a blip. you know, there is no evidence that supports the idea that the election was stolen as donald trump has claimed repeatedly since then. and yet, so many people have subscribed to that theory and continue to do so. and now people are running on, you know, running and campaigning on that. why has that taken root in the us, which the world had previously regarded as a mature democracy? well, unfortunately, they're both the dis, information, and information that's happening within the united states. there are bad actors who, who are internal and external, who want there to be lots of distinction within the united states. and who was there to be lots of payoff around democracy in the united states. however, we see that the majority of american people understand that we have 3

a fair election. they understand that in 2020 we had our most here election in our nation history. we also had the most diverse, turned out and army history. fortunately, there are some people within the united states. don't like the idea of multiculturalism. who don't like the idea that there's all sorts of people within the united things. who are the right to be heard. all right, rebecca group is thank you so much for joining us today on al jazeera. i want to bring in now alan lichtman. he's a distinguished professor of history at american university. he joins us from bethesda, maryland, allen. it's great to talk to you again. you have called every presidential election right for 40 years. you're famous for that. do you make predictions for the midterm? i don't make predictions for the mid terms. i tried that once you know my system or how did it go that initial i tried to apply it to set of elections, you know,

but the problem is one set of keys for 30 plus elections works pretty well. i got about 85 to 90 percent. right. but everyone focused on the few. i got wrong, so i stopped. well, nonetheless, the rule of thumb for mid terms is that they tend to go against the president and his party. do you foresee, in this case, the republican wave? i think that that's certainly a lot of truth to that. the environment is very toxic for democrats. ah, jo biden's approval rating are low. this fighting inflation and mid terms do afford those who are discontented with an administration, a chance to register their discontent, and i was the great poet doubt. robert frost said, i think the world will ended fire, not an ice. in other words, anger and grieving tends to weigh satisfaction. on the other hand, there are some count of veiling horses. critically important of course,

as the overturning of roe vs wade, which catapulted off last pregnancy as an important issue. as your previous interview indicated, the state of our democracy is also very important law. inflation comes and goes. the truth is, you could elect a republican congress, a republican senate. it will make 0 difference on inflation. but if you lose your democracy, you're not going to get it back. how much is donald trump moving the needle? and especially in the local races where he's been getting involved in supporting candidates. i don't say donald trump, per se, in his appearances move the needle, but the republican party has become totally a trump party. dedicated to election denial, dedicated to denial of climate change, by the way, like democracy. if you lose your planet, you're not going to get it back. and the result is all traditional principles that

republicans have claim to stand for argon personal morality, personal responsibility. a joke under donald trump. respect for traditional institutions. states rights are restrained government, fiscal responsibility, all gone under donald trump. instead they become the party of racial religious political grievances and kind of an effort to turn back the clock to this mythical america of the great pioneers, stock of white christian men. joe biden, the president has made this about the future of democracy, but poles actually suggest that what americans care about is the economy and pocket book issues, as is often the case. so have the democrats got their messaging wrong? you think? i'm not entirely, but i have to say for decades,

democratic messaging has been awful. you know, we had the new deal, the fair deal, the new frontier we had simple, compelling messages. the democrats were presenting. what's the message now? build back better. that means nothing. you know, biden has amassed the greatest set of domestic accomplishments since the 900 sixty's. but americans don't know that because democrats are so abysmal at their messaging. and i think they have messed up their messaging on inflation, which should be here, or the concrete things we've done to deal with inflation. republicans have voted against every one of them elect republicans. it's going to do nothing for inflation . but you know that message seemingly has gotten lost. all right, professor alan rickman, the oracle on presidential elections just speaking out on the midterm,

met. thank you. bear with me. money. we're, we're, we're real. i've read some of your pronouncements. i'm, i'm, i'm all about it. all right, professor. thank you so much. take care and still head on al jazeera. a big step in china is kobe 19 recovery the return of the beijing marathon . and sport garrath failed, delivers at hollywood, ending fullest angeles, etc. action coming up later on in the show, you want to stay with us for that. ah, with hello got some lie. the storms across northern parts of south america, the pop gone cloud there from the caribbean roadway, across northern areas of brazil. it was at east side of brazil, but at the south that lots of warm sunshine. 31 celsius in

a sense. yeah. me getting up into the mid to high twenty's there and want to sarah's and also in santiago over the next few days. let me may see a few showers just creeping their way towards rio. by the time we come to mundane after the caribbean, some live the storms just around hispaniola. this big mass of cloud has been fading . some very heavy rain in it may well develop into a tropical depression over the next couple of days. a certainly want to keep an eye on either way. a lot of heavy rain in that pushes right up towards the bahamas. the lee was staying some pretty wet weather over the next couple of days, just pulling back as we go through monday, big downpours. they will continue across the costa rica, easing across into panama, still some live, the showers there, into southern and eastern parts of mexico. you see this mass a cloud across the gulf of mexico. i chose up with a stormy weather that was seen eating across the deep south. that's going to continue pushing further east was warped the head of that snow there across so central parts of canada,

which was the northwest. and that is thinking south ah, the climate breakdown is real on this getting worse. despite all the signs on reporting. why are we doing more? that's the question journalist cali, re tries to answer in this series. i'm looking at climate breakdown from a different perspective. i want to understand how power money, she destructiveness and deception has come to shape our schools to the chrysler. all hail the planet, coming through on al jazeera, the latest news, as it breaks with pandemic restrictions being lifted for the 1st time. the streets were filled with tens of thousands of parts together with detail coverage, all cents a month. here we want to share dissolution less with the politicians in general from around the world. everywhere you look, their young men carrying machine guns,

that example of how this school recruit their soldiers. oh a. you're watching else 0 reminder of our headlines this. our russian media are reporting the nova covert damn, and russian held ukraine has been damaged by a ukrainian rocket attack. last month, the ukranian president, worn to the destruction of the dam, would cause a large scale disaster delegate un 27th climate conference. have agreed to add to the agenda, the issue of who should pay compensation for the effect of climate change to we

call $27.00 meeting has started in the egyptian city of sharma. at least 1900 people had been killed and 26 rescued after a passenger plane crashed into lake victoria. the precision air flight from dar salaam was attempting to landed cobra airport in northwest pen to me. and it was one of the most distressing images to come out of ukraine at the start of the war and apartment building and keep struck by a miss i leaving a gaping hole in its side. there it is sending a signal about the level of threat to civilian life. now though rebuilding is underway, carry faucet met one former resident of the building, looking forward to moving, backing back in and with a story of how his 9 year old son saved his family. oh, this is my flat. as you see. it still doesn't have her door. alexi mar, resolve is looking to the future. one we're a treasure passed in this apartment will be rebuilt. course it says it was not

a flat. it was a big old here and with, with a lot of dust and lots of glasses around me. 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. when lexie and his family had moved to a nearby bomb shelter, only hours earlier, it's more strange and more mazing that my, my children asked me, teens. so i, i my boys. he's not me. she doesn't understand what war means. he'll alexi and his wife maria lived here with their daughter. and 2 sons was the youngest boy mickland who came to them the night before. the strike went to our bedroom here and the parents please

let go to shelter because that tells us that it's safe place and we have to go in and we move 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 for my voice to sleep in this room. busy this night i'm sure yes, he and his fellow residents res, tens of thousands of dollars in the days after the strike to buy support, to keep the building intact. now the key of city government is funding the reconstruction of all the affected flaws. what happened here back in february 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 who used to live here. but they're also symbolic for a country that wants to demonstrate resilience. can you still visualize it 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 district that we do not carry nothing and 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 shelling by syrian government forces has reportedly killed 6 people in western italy. province. 30 rockets targeted a rebel held areas which include a camp for displaced people. medical sources say

a woman and 2 children are among the dead. 20 others were injured. more than 3000 families live in the area. relatives and loved ones of slain l 0 journalists, sharina black layer, holding a church memorial 6 months after her death. the j. sharina died on may the 11th, but in line with palestinian traditions, her family will market on november the 6th. she was killed by a sniper, while reporting an independent investigation found is really forces deliberately targeted her and the un peacekeeping mission in cyprus is being criticized by both sides of this decades. long conflict un peacekeepers were deployed to the island in 1964 during violence between turkish and greek. cypriots in 1974. the conflict worsened with turkish forces. moving in today there's a u. n. c. fire line and 180 kilometer buffer zone across the island separates

greek speaking cypress in the south from the turkish speaking, self declared republic of northern cypress. andrew simon spent a day in because the air with you and forces on patrol in the buffer zone. ah, an island cut in to look to the north. and you can see the turkish cypriots side of a frozen conflict from 48 years ago. a self declared state only recognized by the turkish government in ankara. it's leaders say they want more influence in the mandate of the united nations run buffer zone. that segregates them from the majority. greek cypriots south of the island. hello to this is to to charlie video tech or, and their attentions on both sides. the fact that the fides do not talk to each other or creates an opportunity for our insecurity. and that's where the role of the united nations is critical. we have open communication lines with both sides
