5:02 am
and be prepared for persistent black house, ukraine's prison ones. people of more russian attacks on energy facilities. we begin in the united states with democrats and republicans and making last ditch appeals on the final day of campaigning before tuesdays crucial midterm elections. the votes could append joy biden's presidency with polls suggesting a republican come back with the democrats face losing control of both houses of congress. president joe biden has been at a really, in maryland. he's reached out to students urging them to vote on tuesday. pro. you got one day drill. one most important elections you heard is time. and again, i almost feel guilty repeated it. our life times are going to be shaped by what happens the next year to 3 years. it's got a shape with the next couple decades look like for real. and back in august,
5:03 am
i came to rock drill to kick off a campaign season with wes. and we're here bowie to close it out with wes. all of you. let's be clear. this election is not a referendum, it's a choice. the choice between 2 very different versions of america. a former president, donald trump, is in the state of ohio where he claims the republicans a going to do very well. countries, countries is only one choice. you in this bad this and you support the, the wine all of america. then you must absolutely. oh, or the radical left crazy people, the radical it if you want to stop the destruction of our country and save the american dream and to morrow you must vote. republican in
5:04 am
a giant grass. ellen fisher has been monitoring to nights, fallen. all campaign pushes and joins us from washington. d. c. a festival. ellen, you pulling data suggests some more bad news for the democrats. you get an idea of how much the democrats are struggling in that joe biden. and the last 2 days of the campaign has been in places that you would expect there to be a fairly sizeable democratic majority. so the fact that he's been in new york and maryland suggests that he knew his things aren't going well. and then political nerds wait for the university of virginia as big paul on the eve of. busy elections, and we find out that they are suggesting that there's going to be a big win for the republicans in the house that they're probably going to have a net gain of $24.00 seats, which is at, at the, the more a cataclysmic side of the predictions for the democrats,
5:05 am
and they're all such suggesting that how shall walker will win his seat in georgia . the other seats will stay as they are. but if she'll walk her winds in georgia, that will give the republicans a one seat majority and the senate. so very little good news for the democrats here, if there is one sliver of light there for them. it is that if the republicans, when, by about 24 seats, it means that the republican leadership can govern without the needs to really go a cap in hand. to the people that would be regarded by some republicans and certainly by the democrats as the more extreme wing of the republican party. and so perhaps there is some movement for work with the working with the president and getting things done. but on the face of it, from the university of virginia, it looks as if to morrow could be a bad day for democrats, and in particular for joe biden and the white house looming over all of this as a,
5:06 am
of course, donald trump, how big an influence is he having on these mid terms? well, the fact that he came out and back so many candidates means that he will be able to claim that a lot of the republican success is down to him. he's still on stage in ohio. apparently there's a very big crowd there. there was a big crowd in florida. it shows that he can still generate a lot of support and the republican base. and really when it comes to mid terms, that's where you need, you need your base to get out and vote. and sally's will seen from the pause over the last few days. the republicans are much more engaged in this election. they're paying a lot more intention to the election. they're also suggesting that there's going to be more of them who are going to vote in this election. all of that is bad news for the democrats. he is the one thing you need to remember though, that when it comes to the midterms, presidents tend to get a hammering. it goes back to beyond the 2 bushes, a barack obama,
5:07 am
that bill clinton, you want to go even further back. it is almost a tradition of american politics that the president gets a hammering in the mid terms. and what will happen know, is that there will be pressure on joe biden to consider whether or not he can run in 2024. he will be in his eighty's, it's going to, if the pores are to be believed, is going to oversee a very, very bad night for the democrats. and so they might be thinking, look, if you want to beat donald trump, a man in the seventy's who could well declare in the next week that he's going to run for the republican nomination, than the democrats need to look to someone who's younger, who's more energetic and perhaps can do a lot more for the democrats nationwide, but those are questions for the future. for the moment, it's just about what happens in about 20 board hours when the pool start to close in the united states. and what all mean for the balance of power and the next 2 years for joe biden,
5:08 am
certainly are plenty riding on the next day or so. thank you very much. that's ellen fisher in washington dc. will us support for ukraine in the war against russia will depend on who controls congress, senior republicans have hinted, they may reduce aid for keep that lift. many worried as harry force reports from the ukrainian capital. there's been some good news in the last few days as far as the craning leadership is concerned when it comes to us military aid after the visit here to keep on friday, the us national security adviser, there was an announcement of another $400000000.00 worth of u. s. military aid to ukraine, some of that going to pay for half of $90.00 check tanks that are going to be modernized and sent to the ukranian military. that's going to bring to $19800000000.00. the total amount and president landscape has over the weekend been talking about further reinforcements in the pipeline, ukraine's ad offenses as well. but there is some concern here in cave about what
5:09 am
might happen off of the u. s. midterm elections on tuesday, one prominent comp supporter, representative marjorie taylor green, saying that if republicans will not election, there should be not another penny sent to ukraine. the leader of the house republican saying that they should not be a blank check. the ukraine either, although he later clarified that saying that was about oversight, not withdrawing aid altogether. and the bite administration, according to a report in the washington post, has privately been asking presidency landscape to show some kind of signal of willingness towards negotiation with russia. not so much because they want those negotiations to start, but they're worried that the alliance, the western countries might be showing some signs of ukraine fatigue. and they want to stop that from happening. people here wondering if there'll be any signs of ukraine fatigue within us politics after tuesday's elections. teresa felon is the director of the center for russia, europe, asia studies. she says the results of the election could turn into an existential
5:10 am
issue for ukraine. europe is watching this so closely in addition to president put in in moscow and present zalinski and kia. this is an existential issue for ukraine . so i, i would suggest that there is kind of growing fatigue in some areas of europe depending on the country. and i think that the u. s. is carried the burden quite heavily that president biting does have key funds and has been very careful in the way that this has been given to ukraine. i think you came is really motivated because they understand the election cycle within the u. s. and so they have been really pushing very hard to make us successes because americans like winners if they look like they're losing, they're not going to get support from them. so i think that the ukrainians have been fighting and very highly motivated. i think that the russians, it has been proven that you know, they're not doing so well. but if they are pushed early to the negotiation table, the big fear here in europe is that russell will then regroup, hold on to their gains,
5:11 am
and then attack your paint several years down the road. so i think we really have to push hard to get a settlement in ukraine that does not give russia another chance to re arm and then re conquer and al coverage on pulling day begins at o. 100 g m t own wind state will have correspondence right across the u. s. plus reaction to the results from a wide range of analysts. with what the news in the you in secretary general has warned, the world is losing the fight against climate change. addressing the cop $27.00 summits and shamal shake, attorney yogurt, cherish described climate change as the defining issue of our age and that the crises of today, such as ukraine and the rising cost of living can't be used as excuses to put climate action on the back burner the clock is ticking. we are in the fight of our lives and we are losing greenhouse gas emissions. keep growing

5:15 am
ah, you're watching l. just a reminder of our top stories, the south you in chief, antonio garish, has warms, that the world is losing the battle against climate change. speaking at the comp 27 conference in egypt, he totally has had the planets approaching tipping points that will lead to reversible damage. and democrats and republicans are making last ditch appeals on the final dive. campaigning before tuesdays crucial midterm elections. the votes could opinions, joy, biden's, presidency with poll, suggesting
5:16 am
a republican come back laportia and has always been a hot button issue in most to us elections. and these midterms and no difference. but this year, emotions, particularly ra, off to the supreme court, struck down federal protections for the procedure in june. now it is up to individual states to decide whether to allow abortions. vote is a michigan, are getting a chance to have this i on the issue, hardy job, castro has more from the site capitol of lansing. we want oh abortions are at the moment. legal in michigan. but the women in this room, including the president of the country's largest abortion provider, fear that soon could change how much. oh, are here trying to take us back? a 1931 michigan law had banned nearly all abortions,
5:17 am
with no exceptions for rape or incest. now that law could return this um, i'll re just dangerous and cruel law. it basically means that um, health care michigan becomes criminalized that women can be prosecuted for having abortion for having a miscarriage. if they have stillbirth, that's where michigan's proposal 3 comes in. it puts the question of whether abortions should be protected in michigan directly to the voters. signs are everywhere, but yes, to support abortion, access no to oppose it. both sides have been campaigning hard. we're out here the theme and supportive proposal. 3, this father and daughter do oh, have been knocking on doors to convince voters that abortions should be protected after learning what the campaign was, she said should support it. there is a reason why michigan is at the center of the abortion debate raging across the country. voters here are about evenly divided politically. a close reflection of
5:18 am
the entire nation and back is lawmakers of both parties from lansing to washington, a chance to learn what the average american voter thinks about abortion and then to adjust their political strategies accordingly. republicans have long benefited from christian conservatives who support the parties. anti abortion platform. the priest at the church of the resurrection in lansing, michigan, told parishioners v being for abortion access would be a sin. should you vote for proposal 3? you need to repent and go to confession. abortion is murder when you're taking a human life. you're murdering that life. but polls show the pro abortion side, leading by a significant margin in michigan. the fact that we might not be able to control what happens with our own bodies that we don't have that choice is wrong. whether
5:19 am
that passion translates to votes remains to be seen. had he, jo, castro, al jazeera lansing michigan. 5 key ukrainian companies have been nationalized for war time state needs. the companies include a top engine maker and an energy company is the 1st time the government has used martial law, which was introduced when russia invited ukraine in february for such a move. president villamor zalinski said it was needed to ensure military requirements were met and ukraine's president is wanting of more russian attacks on energy facilities. he says people should be prepared for persistent blackouts across the country. harry faucet reports from cave that people across ukraine learning to cope with the situation. but daily life is getting harder. a provinces the o blasts to the west, to the north, to the east. or there are 7 in total that are being hit by this,
5:20 am
this major shortage in power. i'm and with the temperatures only going one way there in single figures during daytime. and it's getting colder by the day, by the week. it is getting more and more difficult in terms of, of what the messaging is. they are talking at least in terms of contingency planning, about possibility of pretty major evacuations. or they're not saying that that is definite or even necessarily likely. but the fact that they are at least talking about it does suggest they are worried about it potentially getting worse. our daily life isn't a sort of totally struck by power. cuts is not as of heat, whole towns will neighborhoods are out for hours all in one piece. they are cycling these blackouts as much as they can for a few hours between different neighborhoods, even different streets. but just to give you one example, we were to a family wedding on saturday, a small party inside an apartment building and there was no power there. they just
5:21 am
got on with it. and there is that sense of just getting on with it. a pretty positive public message or being put out there stoicism and defiance. and also some of that messaging coming from the government today as well, are welcoming in new anti air missiles systems to defend the country from these very systematic attacks on the energy system. they're saying that has come in, there's also some talk in the defense intelligence system about russia potentially losing a lot of it's cruise missiles are not having a huge amount left in the locker to carry on. these attacks are too much longer. italy's government is being sued by a humanitarian organizations for rejecting migrants. rescued at c to foreign and ships are refusing to leave. the sicilian port of cataneo with hundreds of migrants have been denied entry until the da is reversed. tony bradley reports, they survived a harrowing, c crossing from africa,
5:22 am
but they'd been refused entry into italy and had been caught in a political stalemate. italian government says they have to leave the ship's crew is refusing until everyone is allowed off. we will never leave the port as long as there's one person on board our battle, which has the right for international protection, which has the right to reach safe land. to rescue ships, humanity won the job. rents arrived in the sicilian port of catania on saturday. the total of $621.00 migrants only around $450.00, were allowed to stay. the tenant government says they were not vulnerable and should be repatriated to germany and norway, which operate the ships that carried out the rescues. the right wing italian prime minister, georgia maloney pledged a crackdown of migrants during her election campaign. those aboard the humanity won and g o, brent's a feeling, the effects of that. but the cheering roots have started legal action against the
5:23 am
italian government. there was a discrimination also in the moment when someone go out over the ship, we don't know how we know how that selection was made and we think that they get there was not as election baited on that. and we did that. they did the right method, humanitarian organizations say that the italian government is clearly in breach of the united nations convention on human rights. and that they are confident of winning any legal battle. but that takes time and it still leaves hundreds of migrants living and a political no man's land. the critics of the government say it is playing political games and thousands more migrants and to italy under their own means, or are rescued by the italian coast guard. and the save by foreign ships represent only a small percentage, but the tomb of those stranded on the ships can only get worse,
5:24 am
which they have fear in the ice, and that they are pushed back into international waters, maybe even pushed back to libya. so all the memories come up on that journey, what they experienced. so people dying. so people aren't going missing in front of them. they don't want to go back to these places. is winter set, seen and sees become rougher. one thing is, certain more migrants will need to be rescued. a more will die. sony berkeley, al jazeera, cataneo sicily, ethiopia as government and rebels from its northern to drive region have established a telephone hotline. the move was announced by african union mediators. as the 2nd round of talk, skid under wind, kenya, the 2 sides achieved to break through last week in south africa, signing a deal to stop fighting. after 2 years of conflict, katherine saw has more from nairobi, military commanders from the government. and if you drive people,
5:25 am
the bridge and current are now working on modality of how things will work following the agreement that came to effect in south africa. the think some of the restoring services in humanitarian access and this could happen within the next week or so we have some services out again and they with us out there, but in there as well. so we have access, we have to quickly, the next step is supposed to g banks, but i need food in medicine. i have been really difficult for the last yes to seek for those people who cry. neighboring areas, a some, if you walk into a worried that there may not be justice for the thousands of people who have been
5:26 am
affected by the war. both sides of the conflict have been accused of committing atrocities. and they quoted the better people who have a deeper understanding of their lives on the ground, to figure out how to go about it. and to make sure that whatever we come up with is going to result in and left the piece. not a publicity exercise where we may say we have agreed on a number of things, only to, to renew one our promises and to do things that will set it at the club. now the african union, which is really taking the talk, i say that these developments be set with this. we then development shows that both sides one, this war 2 and, and may me, if you will also say that they have no appetite anymore for drawn out conflict. the you in human rights council's commission of inquiry on the occupied palestinian territory is holding 4 days of public hearings in geneva. the 1st day
5:27 am
focused on the closure of several palestinian human rights organisations accused of terrorism. later the commission will discuss the killing of al jazeera journalist during a barclay who was shot in the hid by israeli forces while on assignments. who sullivan? java has more from geneva, the people who are not testifying today. the hearings that continue or know the ground rules and know that this is not a courtroom. this is not going to be admissible evidence, but this is in fact going to make the case for the people who have been designated terrorists by israel and also on the case of a block is killing and the surrounding events which happened around it. so far. we've heard from at least one organization which was one of 7 which had been declared terrorists by the really state. we've been speaking to people who say that although this is not a court of appeals, that they at least have
5:28 am
a space where they can tell people about what goes on in the occupied territories. we've heard from the director of charity thing that there is a culture of impunity, whether it's obviously detention whether honda demolition, whether it's illegal settlement, palestinians are in the occupied territories discriminated against and the legal system is stacked up against them. so this is the 1st day, the 1st of the few hearing, the testimonies that we're hearing have begun. it is ongoing, it is where we're going to hear a 1st time to count of what goes on through the human rights. defend isn't in their words crossing a red line in israel every single time when they stand up for basic rights and basic freedom. science per cent of palestinians in the occupied west bank have learning or physical disabilities. they faced stigma and have limited opportunities to lead a full life. and the government has scant resources to help. we heard from her bethlehem based organization that stepped in to provide support. i my head on the
5:29 am
side of every but i am responsible for remind the organization. we are a day program for people with intellectual disabilities. actually when we 1st started in 2009, we had no idea about opening a hotel. but them view to the difficult financial situation. we had the idea that we have this beautiful building. why not to have an income generating project. and this, the profit that comes from this project is going to help with the sustainability of the organization. we believe that each person is unique, each person has abilities, talents that can be trained to do better and better.
5:30 am
first of all, they are very, very happy to be part of this team. it is obvious when we tell them we have guests, we need your help. let's go to the hotel. it also raises the self esteem. our goal is not just too high if, if you people with disabilities at the hotel, but also to choose the idea and the whole society and the families as well. many of the families and hide the children. they, they don't want to speak about them. we can be an example we can be assigned in the society and show people that the people with disabilities are able to be part of the working team. ah.
