1:02 pm
a worry for cynical ahead of the wild card with stock striker sadie manet picking up an injury just 11 days before the tournaments. welcome to the program. we begin this news hour in the united states where early results from tuesdays midterm election show a close fight for control of congress. that defies predictions of a so called red wave of big gains for the republican party. but republicans do appear to be in the late in the house of representatives. if you believe in freedom, hard work, and the american dream. these results proved that there is a place for you and the republican party. oh, no to do. we built upon those gains 2 years ago and it is clear that
1:03 pm
we are gonna take house back on the control of the senate seats on a knife edge. both parties had secured 40. i saved the battleground, states of arrazola, nevada, wisconsin, and georgia, a being closely watched so far. only one sentence said has slipped democrat. john ferryman has defeated trump back to celebrity don't ma'am. and i was in the crucial state of pennsylvania. it's bringing that my hannah, who's lived for us at the white house. hello there, mike, set the scene for us. the predictions of a red waves, certainly haven't materialized, have they know very much, not most polls that indicated that the republicans would make significant gains in congress in particular. but as the evening has worn on this simply as not transpired, there is a possibility that republicans will take control of the house. certainly the minority speaker you heard from there appears to think so,
1:04 pm
but the majority speak in the house democrat, nancy pelosi is insistent that the democrats are going to hold the house. she of course, winning her seat yet again off the decades in california. but the brain still very carefully poised, but all of those who have predicted the massive republican gains and have not been satisfied. the point simply is in mid term elections. there is normally a massive movement of seats, both in the house and the senate to the party that is not in power. now, there might have been a movement in this election but far less than any previous midterm election. the significance of this is that the bolsters president biden standing as neither of the democratic party. and this is something that he could use in the next 2 years of his turn at what is main of for the democratic legislative agenda going forward then how? yeah, going forward. well,
1:05 pm
if the democrats lose control of the house, then certainly it's going to make they're putting the agenda in place far more difficult. one must remember that the democrats have had control of both house and senate in the 1st 2 years of the bite and ministration. and at times they struggle to push through what they want to do in recent months that it's improved. they made some significant legislative gains, but control of the house would impact on the administration's ability to does what it wants to do. losing control of the senate would make it even more difficult. all of that being said, though, they are problems for the republicans to even if they do control, gain control of the house. it will be by a very slim majority. this would make it very difficult for the man who chosen a speaker to control the republicans within the party and to be able to push through the agenda that he wants to as well. so there are many aspects that are
1:06 pm
going on here. the tightness of this midterm election is in many ways surprising, but most of all, it's surprising in the context of previous midterm elections in which they are massive gains by the party. that is not impala. this is going against the trend, the results that we've seen. so far. all right, mike, thank you very much for the update. mike hannah live for us at the white house. of course, all eyes is still on the races that have yet to be decided. georgia senate race is too close to call. it's been described as a must win race by republicans if they want to gain control. but in now looks like it might be heading for a runoff. and the arizona senate right seems to be good news for the democrats incumbent. mark kelley is a leading his republican rival, black masters, who believe the last election was stolen. alright, let's take a closer look. now at these races with is she have her time v in capitol hill. she
1:07 pm
have the battle for the senate is being described as being on a knife edge. what should we be looking out for? let's start with georgia. it's, it's difficult really to tell what is, is driving these places. whistle trying to come to terms with how on earth democrats, even though they will, it would appear lose control of the house, how they've managed to avoid a complete disaster in the senate. and it seems from the exit polls and elsewhere around the country. that abortion was, as many have told posters, months ago was the major issue that had brought people to the polls that have given, given the democrats that turn out amongst young people among suburban, suburban women and others. now the question is, is that does not hold true for, for georgia as well? because i mean, clearly, if abortion is a major issue,
1:08 pm
that's something that herschel walker may be a little bit concerned about. he's of very anti reproductive rights and he's been if they're allegations that he himself there, despite that position, has paid for to abortions for former former girlfriends. so that issue of abortion we have, we wonder whether that will make it will be a major, major driver in this race. also that issue of integrity of trust, which proved fatal. it would seem from the exit polls from them at alls in pennsylvania about issue of my girl closest trump, whether these issues will start coming into play in georgia more not least because in georgia, we also have a 3rd candidate on the ballot. the libertarian candidate, who it seems might have got around 2 percent of the vote. who will now drop out of this if there is a is a runoff election? the question is, why were people voting for that? the battalion candidate when he had no trans winning was the protest. but was it people on the right you who just bops and there was
1:09 pm
a good level of this just couldn't handle her social workers, perhaps lack of experience is lack of graphs to some of the issues. will those where will those votes guys? so these are some of the issues that we're looking at now in georgia as we, as we move forward. and, and there is now, there is that expectational that we can't confirm anything that this may end up getting into a runoff, which will be decided until december. and then she have, what about i resign or whatever the big issues that have played out of the ballot box there? abortion once again, actually really interestingly has been a major issue because the republican candidate that is a nother maga trump candidate who really route one who really has very extremely useful abortion. not not actually brings or reproductive rights to any circumstances for women. a woman's right to choose, in fact, after the supreme court decision in, in some way, he had to scrub parts of his, his website to try and make it less extreme. so this became actually a rather a big issue amongst again suburban white women and others in the democratic base.
1:10 pm
he was saying, wait a 2nd, this is way too extreme. he's also very extreme on all sorts of issues. he really is, maga trump republican, it's interesting. we often hear about concerns on the democratic party about the martino, but we still what happened in florida, for example. but here in arizona actually things are slightly different because there's a very good outreach program by progressive democrats actually, who really to spend the time and money to try and bring latino voters into the democratic party. and the fact that this particular republican candidate is so extreme on immigration as well as i have seen the flat sense of the time. a few things about about latino migrants doesn't do him any favors that either. so there's that question as to whether once again, abortion maga, extremism, integrity, whether these, these questions will also be on the, on the bout here as they have been in some, in pennsylvania for example. she had thank so much for breaking down for us. she
1:11 pm
had her tansy in capitol hill and as we've been hearing, pennsylvania was won and by democrat, john feldman, he address support is a little earlier. we have the line i never expected that we were going to turn these red counties blue, but we did what we needed to do and we had that conversation across every one of those counties. internally, that's why i'll be the next. you are senator from pennsylvania. oh, let's get moved from gabriel. alexander in pitts bank. this is the 1st i flipped state in this election in this mid term in this senate race. that means it's either the democrats or the republicans. this is a 1st time tonight that either of the 2 parties has been able to flip. one was previously republican, now is democrat. this was
1:12 pm
a hard fought campaign. it was very close. and no one could really predict how this was going to go. but now with this race being called for john fedor, men, this puts the democrats in the control or in the driver's seat if you will, to potentially a, remain in control of the u. s. senate is not there yet, but this is a big step in that direction for the democrats. this was a very hard fight campaign. as i mentioned, john fedor, men a, the lieutenant governor and he had a stroke just 6 months ago. he almost lost his life. he almost died from it. he was taken off the campaign trail for many months while he recovered to regain his health. and he had a big lead in the summer. but that was so whittled down in the last several weeks. and the polls indicated that this was a dead heat with both candidates tied at 46 per cent. and it appeared that his
1:13 pm
opponent, the republican trump, uh, backed up celebrity dr. met oz was actually had a lot of the momentum in the last couple weeks of this campaign. and so the fact that fedor men was able to pull this out and secure this senate seat for the democrats, is a huge, huge victory of for the democrats and alia. we were speaking about that tight race shaping out in arizona, one county there has been trending on line at joined the vice as lea a hunting whipple. this county is home to nearly 2 3rd of arizona's population. that's more than 4000000 people. it's a battle ground county within a battle ground state and voters there say they've had problems voting due to long lines and machine malfunctions with of course, that on election day that would never happen right now. they would never surgery.
1:14 pm
this clip of an election official in maricopa county has been going viral among republican voters, specifically on social media. it's already been viewed more than 4000000 times. the long lines have only fueled conspiracy theories that the machine issues are an attempt to suppress the republican vote. i just came out of voting in maricopa county, which is my county, and it was an absolute nightmare. they were having the same problem and printing out to ballots for people because of these white speck marks, apparently. and it wasn't reading it and it refused to take my ballot. someone somewhere needs to stand up and fight for people like me and all the other people that i was even in line with their concern and worried about this horrific process that we just went through. while election deniers are calling this voter suppression, the head of elections for maricopa county says it all just came down to
1:15 pm
a faulty printer. he says, all votes will be counted and the line wait times were exaggerated, but the conversation has grown so much so that even former president, donald trump wade n, don't leave your line, stay where you are. they say that the machines are working and they say that they're running out of paper in different locations throughout different states. there's a lot of bad things going on, stay online, do not believe. i know you don't want to be there as long as they're going to try and enforce you. they wanted to lay you out of voting. there was an emergency motion to extend pull hours in the county, but a judge denied that motion. but those line who were in line were still able to vote . now if you are in the states and had trouble voting, we want to hear from you, you can let us know the hash tag a mid terms. ah,
1:16 pm
it gets his mother world news now in democratic republic of congo. at least 9 people have been killed there in an attack in the north eastern city of benny. a rebel group called the allied democratic forces as being blamed for the violence on tuesday night. it comes as the government renews. it's fight against another rebel group in 23. not going web and joins me from a camp in going for those who've been into place to malcolm. what if any people been experiencing where you are will people around here arrived in their thousands, tens of thousands over the last week will to say they fled when the m. $23.00 rebel group, which is widely understood to be a proxy of neighboring romando. they were one to denies it, but the people mostly from rural areas complained that the arm group would bomb their villages. and people are scared of this armed group because of its track record of executing and forcing civilians to fight to people who fled. many of them
1:17 pm
on foot walking for 2 or 3 days sleeping rough or to reach the area where we are now. we're in a health center at the moment, just north of the city of goma, but lining the road all the way from the city to here. and far beyond tens of thousands of shelters made from sticks. plastic sheeting and leaves where people are sleeping rough. it's raining very heavily every day at the moment. conditions really aren't good at all. now with me is baptist through zone is a logistics manager for the charity doctors without borders have been providing some services at this health center. what are the conditions like how they changed following this massive influx of people in the last week or 2? yeah, we've seen the situation changed a lot since the less than those speakers, tens of thousands of people have arrived now and taking refuge in generic genia. so, so now we are facing many, many needs that we need to, that we need to face. and also on the increase, for example of concentration here,
1:18 pm
and also the living condition as your mentions that are really tough we're sa riffs, shall really small shelters and people living nearly on each other. so it's really complicated. what kinds of health problems is that causing or is there a risk of the domain risk would be, for example, because as people are living in very tough condition was on, for example, almost no sanitary stretchers. we have a lot of risk for example to have um this is like go there are like, ah, with the rainy seasons, you're hot for what to bonds is you have also misery. so, so we are, we are trying to, to manage the suspect cases and also to, to, to answer and through, to managed her. the risk we face. the situation is similar to what we saw here in 2008 and in 2012. and people fled on mass to the outskirts a go moon was staying in the same, very camps. but this time, the presence of humanitarian organizations is a lot less visible. yeah,
1:19 pm
sure. the last year, for example, we are the sin coming. the research is from danielle. i can now i can go volcano and sir, and now since july we are member submits of hunter, adopters with our bud. sorry. it is the only and geo that have been on the, on the sites for, for the past 3 months, during advocacy to, to make sure other engineers are coming. but unfortunately, they had other projects and other other people to help. so, so now since the last 10 days and the, the number of needs increasing rehabs in other many engineers coming. but still the reply is still is still very small compared to the, to the needs. and the conditions are visibly bad out there. but what do people need for them to improve people really, it's almost almost everything they left the left were true territories and different territories was almost nothing and to what they would need would be for distribution would be as i mentioned, a sanitary stretcher on there wouldn't it what the distribution,
1:20 pm
that's also what we are doing and, and yeah, and a lot of supports like also shelter for example through to cover all the other and it's that's, that's what to do. thank you. that was baptized to zone is a logistics manager with the charity doctors without borders is providing some health care services at the displays. people here near the city of goma back to you in doha. and you very much for those in science and malcolm where but live for us in gamma. ukrainians are preparing for a tough winter as russia targets it's energy facilities. president for a lot of me, zalinski says 4 and a half 1000000 people are without electricity. i said bag traveled to central ukraine to see how people are coping the war has taken a new turn in the last month. russia has been targeting ukraine's energy facilities . a 3rd have been damaged so far. ah, the are plant electricity blackouts taking place across the country in the city of
1:21 pm
treasury. they're getting ready for the cold weather. the industrial city was hit by a drone, according to authorities. it's caused considerable damage to the energy facility for you. oh, sure, i would assume they say they have set up 300 heating points around the city. ah, but you're more sure as young produced, the russians continue to launch terrorist attacks. so we must be prepared for the worse than usual. we're not trying to make a 5 star hotel in this place is made to survive. there are blankets, food and baby crips. this bunker can house hundreds of people. those. marcia loses middle school at the, on a left, the don best region in the east of the russia invaded. now the family face is a harsh winter, but we'll follow. we'll see if we have everything here sleeping bags and blankets, a warm place for the worst scenarios. i think we won't phrase, ah, this city has become home to internally displaced people,
1:22 pm
but quivery has been targeted by russian forces. the prospect of leaving again is a very real one. ah, in another part of the city, a soviet era nuclear bunker is being used to show a football mansion authorities here say they feel it's important to provide entertainment. watching a football match in a nuclear bunker may not be normal, but it's a chance for them to come together. oh yeah we oh, i like the atmosphere here. i'm cheering for my football team and i believe we went over the world. it would do better to watch it in a stadium. but do you hear that? what do you have because of the situation in the country? ah, and just for a moment, they forget the war outside and have something to cheer about. i said, bake. i just either riveted france as branded easily as unacceptable after ryan refused to allow several rescue ships to dunk full vessels carrying migrants and refugees were initially denied permission to land in easley
1:23 pm
over the past week. it's part of a crack down by the country is new, right when government, some of those on board will later allowed to disembark, but one ships headed to france instead. 20 bentley is in catania and has been covering developments tiny, easily stand up with a groups running rescue ships has appeared to be now ended. but what's the latest on the porch? lady says basically the ships that her these people were on are still here. they were ordered to leave for 2 days ago. they've been now are requesting permission to leave to continue their rescue work. and they haven't had an answer, but you remember they were ordered to leave and they are now in violation of italian law. and they run the risk of having to pay a $50000.00 euro fine. and if they don't pay that it would go to the courts and the possibility that the ships could be confiscated. so that would take them out of the
1:24 pm
game of rescuing people and their job, as said by many humanitarian organizations, is essential to the well being. and say few people who make an often perilous crossing from north africa to italy. so it is going to be very little situation. we don't know what's happening. they've just been giving a press conference from the german registered boat behind me. humanity warren and that one of the doctors said that she was in a on enviable position of having to declare people fit and healthy. and that meant if she did that, they were not allowed to leave the boat. so that was a very difficult thing. so now the big question mark is what's going to happen to the captains of the ship and the ships will be allowed to leave and carry on their essential work. and turning, the humanitarian crisis certainly is an either. and what more does this say about italy's government and its policies going forward? well, this is an embarrassing crack, then i think the whole situation became very embarrassing for them. they backed
1:25 pm
themselves into a corner, but the daily outpouring of stories about what had happened to these people at what they been through and what they were facing now was probably too much. and i think it underlines also that there are divisions within ga maloney's administration. she was elected partly on the platform of being very tough on migration. ah, but she's now shown weakness. we were actually talking to members of her party in catania yesterday. and they were quite adamant that she would, as they said, walk the line and that she would adhere to what she promised. she hasn't done that . she's back down. it's embarrassing for them. what happens next? that's a big question mark. will she carryon or willoughby? a change of policy will have to see on that man turning thanks. i'm actually update . appreciated endav tiny barely land france in catania. italy still ahead on al jazeera. i'm kristen salumi outside christy's auction house in new york where people are lining up to get a glimpse that a one of the kind our collection expected to raise more than
1:26 pm
a 1000000000 dollars. and in world news, south korean fans a swing on the fitness of a captain. more on that a little later in ah, now the driving force of the weather across europe is usually atlantic. it is still and course wouldn't directions critical when it comes up from the southwest. driving cloud in these frontal says to tend to be fairly mild attempt is actually on the way up. the rain that's on this forward edge is going to be a, it's heaviest in the south of france, french riviera, this part of italy. and of course, the alpine tops in both italy and france and maybe switzerland tempted to come down in spain. there are few showers here as well, and this bit of a contrast middle of european nodded veteran 12 in prague doesn't seem very much
1:27 pm
because you keep pushing this funnel system a lot actually lift temperatures cold front, but behind it temperatures will actually rise and quite considerably in places anywhere in the u. k is about 5 degrees above average is not quite reflected in the middle of france, but the sun's out all the same. it's still to, are you in athens that's about where it should be or a bit above where it should be re, certainly come down and the ballistics with thunderstorms around this is on thursday, vienna's temperature stays above average by about 5 degrees for the next 3 days. or so the still outbreaks of rain along the coast of dana tucker and benny, but less so in nigeria. ah. as the world faces an overwhelming storm of global challenges, indonesia said to host the most difficult g 20 summit since its inception, with the worn ukraine soaring inflation, food crisis,

1:29 pm
oh, hello. watching out here, i'm emily angry. he's a reminder of our top stories this hour. at least 9 people ambiguity an attack in the commonplace. you see any, the allied democratic forces rebel forces being blind. it comes as the government renews. it's fight against another. rebel proved am 23 francis branded easily as unacceptable law to wrong. refuse to allow several, several rescue ships to talk. some of those on board were lines are allowed to do simba, it's part of a correct down by the countries right when the government and the us house and senate still hanging the balance hours after polls have closed in the mid term elections. vogue is still being counted votes as still being counted in several
1:30 pm
states, all $435.00 states in the house and a 3rd in the senate being contested. rosalyn jordan has the lightest well, it was billed as the red wave of 2022 republicans winning control group to become president jo biden's biggest political obstacle. but democrats of want cerebral important races. mark kelley of arizona was re elected to the senate. he'll be joined by pennsylvania, john thurman, who overcame both a stroke and still competition from the celebrity. dr. mamet, ours, i'm proud of it. we ran on there is a fundamental human right. a there for you. the midterms came after months of republicans accusing democrats of plotting to steal the vote. despite fears of potential disruptions at polling stations,
1:31 pm
nothing significant was reported. the president spent tuesday evening congratulating democrats who won their races, and he urged people still waiting to vote in western states to stay in line. democrats hopes died early though in florida, where republicans now control all of the top seat. we will never ever surrender to the woke bob horta as well. oh, or country flanders, due to field leadership in washington, florida is on the right track. former president donald trump promised he would take credit for any republican victories. and he did just that. no wonder what biden would do right now, but we, one of the candidates trump endorsed, did not thank him during his victory speech. now the people of ohio have given us a job and what we need to do over the next couple of years over the next 6 years
1:32 pm
for the full, the full length of the senate term, whoever's in the majority, whatever the president looks like. we have a very simple job to do. it's to go to work every single day and fight for the people of ohio. let's get america back on track. house minority leader kevin mccarthy has long dreamed of taking the speakers gavel from nancy pelosi. but voters may not be ready for that. rosalind jordan, l 0. let's bring in julie norman in london. she is the co director of the center on us politics at the university college london. julie, thanks so much for being on this news. allan has plenty to unpack here, but firstly, republicans assigned. they're on track for a majority in the house, as we just heard from rosalind story. but just how big will that majority beatty think? well, emily, it's clear that the red wave that many republicans and indeed any democrats expected, did not materialize. so it is likely that republicans take the house were obviously
1:33 pm
still way for some races to be counted, but by much swimmer margin and then what's predict. so that still means they can really cause a lot of gridlock and washington can still push their agenda. so in real terms, the majority is the majority, but it does mean that they did not get the bumps that they thought that they would . and that democrats are probably a little better, better position than they thought they were going into yesterday. me, democrats and republicans have used different methods of budging. have we seen that play out? and what does that mean in terms of the days ahead and when the votes of finally old count it? yes sir. one thing that we've seen over the last 2 election cycle is an increased use of early voting and increase use of male and ballots. many of these provisions became more popular. chris, during the pandemic and had been sustained in many states. and then i usually there are more preferred method by democrats and democratic leading faith,
1:34 pm
why republicans tend to vote more in person at the poll. so this is one reason why a lot of our election results take longer to count than maybe they would have even in the past because were waiting for all these, especially mailed in bowers to come in to be counted. and some states don't even start counting until election day or the day after. so you can take a few days for them to come. in. julie former president donald trump, wasn't on the ballot papers, but the candidates, he in fact many of the candidates that he has backed have struggled. what can we take away from them? yes, so it's been a mixed bag for trunk back candidates to. there were a couple of victory they j. d van to know how many other trunk back candidates either have lost their races or in some of these races that really should have been the public in that for the taking. so i do think that will raise some questions about their trump electability going forward towards 2024. this is coupled by april
1:35 pm
30 by his main rival in the party. ron de santis, who had a major victory in florida, just double digit victory flipping districts that had been faith craddick strongholds for a while. so i think its setting up a bit of a battle there for 2024. your trump is very savvy about taking any results and leveraging it for his own gain. i think, oh, take credit for the victories and blame others for the under performance of republicans and whatever the outcome he will still probably use does leverage for a future campaign. took us through some of the historic victory, says a lot in terms of diversity. there was the gentleman, for example, the 1st member of generation that has been elected to congress and also democratic cathy hotel is the 1st elected female in that particular role. yes, there's a couple of groundbreaking offices at the state level. so as you noted, the 1st female governor of new york,
1:36 pm
the 1st black governor was elected. and maryland. and we're starting to see a slight generational shift. i think it's common knowledge that we have a lot of our older octogenarians, if you will. i'm in some of the leadership roles. we're starting to see some younger faces emerging, some of these races and the 1st. b lesbian, governor, for, for one of our other states. so there is a lot of game changing, i would say representation at the state level for sure. which is, i think, a boon for democrats in particular. but really for the country who want to see more diversity and governance certainly been fascinating. 24 hours in many more fascinating days. ahead. thank you so much for your analysis that julie know me and the co director of the center on us politics at university college london. thank you. moving on now and several people, a believe have been killed after a convoy of fuel drugs was struck in syria. iranian trucks were carrying gasoline to lebanon when they were hit. according to iranian st media, they say us drawn,

1:42 pm
as you very rightly said, this is across the board. public and private federal unions have marched out of work today. so government ministries are shut. all so many privacy officers, many private companies. what people are demanding on the whole is eliminating old drastically lowering taxes on all forms of energy, especially electricity and petrol for cause, petrol here increased costs about 2 euros elisa above 2 years later that put served among before highest rates in the european union. and it's marched only in northern european countries, which have $2.00 to $3.00 times per capita, g d, p of greece. so here of course, it is more expensive given greek purchasing power. they also want taxes to be eliminated or reduced on electricity bills on all forms in a gas, natural gas,
1:43 pm
which a lot of people now use to heat their homes. because there's now a pipeline gas as well as ellen g brought to greece. and as an extensive network in several cities increase, taking ellen g to people's homes that the taxes that are raised on energy are very important to the government. the government is unlikely to cut its own revenues, which will then lead it to have to borrow more money from markets. but the government has been trying to get the european union to create a solidarity fund to lend to governments. unfortunately without success so far. john, what level of disruption have these precious course at the moment it, some is no violence. the disruption is simply the disruption to every day working life, at least 50 flights cancelled coming in and out of the athens airport, all public transport grounded. so even if you wanted to go to work,
