he's the permafrost below, he's re introducing animals to the grand slams above, starting with the living creatures that planning to resurrect an extinct species. could this approach save our wells? witness the zimm of hypothesis on al jazeera when the news. great. it's not just personal property, but also infrastructure that now needs fixing from power lines to water. me when people need to be heard and the story told they would get punished. they spoke ukrainian, i'm afraid i won't be able to return home with exclusive interviews. an in depth through poor south african penguins weren't in captivity. al jazeera has teens on the ground to bring you more award winning documentary and live ah,

defying the polls early results in the u. s. and mid term election is show the 5 congress is closer than expected. and control of his sanity is on a knife edge with democrats flipping one said to opt a john fisherman's when in pennsylvania, ah hello, i'm emily and gwen. this is al jazeera live from doha, also coming up face books on a matter of 511000 staff worldwide. the latest tech firm to say mass labels. and will take you inside a bunker in central ukraine where people are preparing for a cold winter and more power outages. ah, thousands of people go on strike in greece. angry at the rising cost of living

we begin with the u. s. me tem elections and the battle for the control of congress has been tighter than predicted. that's to spot indications from opinion polls. many speculated there would be a so called red wave of big gains for the republic potty. it is in the lead. so saints in the house of representatives, but by a small imagine than full cast. control of the senate sits on a knife edge. both parties have now secured $48.00 states, the battleground states of arizona, nevada, wisconsin, and georgia, a being closely watched so far, any one said senate seat has flipped democrat. john fedex been defeated trump back to television celebrity dr. ma'am, at us in the crucial state of pennsylvania, rosalyn jordan wraps up the results so far. it was billed as the read wave of 2022 republicans winning control of congress to become president jo biden's

biggest political obstacle. but democrats of want several important races. mark kelley of arizona was reluctant to the senate. he'll be joined by pennsylvania's john thurman, who overcame both a stroke and stiff competition from the celebrity. dr. mehmet, ours, i'm proud of it. we ran on health care is a fundamental human right. oh, good saying was that it should all be there for you. the mid terms came after months of republicans accusing democrats of plotting to steal the vote. despite fears of potential disruptions at polling stations, 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 hoped, died early though in florida, where republicans now control all of the top seats. we will never ever surrender to the woke bob herder, if will. oh, or country flanders due to failed 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. i wonder what biden would do. right. tampa 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 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. brussel in jordan al jazeera. let's bring in now . whitehouse kirsten and kimberly hallett. hello there. kimberly. so that red wave has not yet materialized that republicans are still hopeful of taking back congress . yeah, that's right. the red wave hasn't quite reached the shore and it doesn't appear that it's going to, if it does, it looks like it'll be just a ripple of what we expect is that we may not know these results for some time because they're both still being counted. but it's not going to be the overwhelming majority that republicans have hope for and what that means moving forward is that many of the plans that republicans had in place are likely to not materialize. in other words, some of the investigations that they had hope for in terms of investigating the

bite and presidency of the past 2 years or reverse. and course and some of the by the legislative legislative agenda is also going to be a challenge if not impossible. and so this is something that is going to be disappointing for republicans and is certainly going to as really kind of make them have to regroup in terms of how they're going to proceed moving forward. it's going to mean that in a very divided washington, there may have to be a lot more reaching across the aisle to get things done than many of these politicians are accustomed to. and on that can we expect to hear from you as president joe biden? today we are hearing from the white house pre the election that the president would be speaking to the american public. but what i can tell you right now is that the president schedule does not have anything listed at, but we do expect that that could change and that there could be some updates. what

i can tell you right now is that the mood here at the white house is one of cautious optimism. and we suspect that the president's going to want to share that with the american public. because what the take away from this seems to be here at the white house is that this has not been a rejection of the biden legislative agenda. quite the opposite. what this take away seems to be is that if people rejected a democratic candidate or voted in favor of republican candidate, was voting in favor of the economy. but it wasn't rejecting building bridges or wanting to codify a woman's right to choose or abortion rights. many of the things that the president is still trying to work on in the remainder of his term. and so there is this feeling that the president still has a mandate. but there's also this feeling that the president has the confidence that he can continue to also make the declaration that he can run not just for the next 2 years or carry on for the next 2 years. but that he can run for another for in

2024. and also maybe that opinion polls on always. right. thank you very much. kimberly hallett, good live for us there outside the white house. all eyes. and now on those races yet to be decided, georgia, the 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 now looks like it might be headed for a run off the resort, and i sent it right. seems to be good news for the democrats incumbent monk. kelly is leading his republican rival, black masters, who believes the last election was stolen. let's take a closer look at all of these races with she have returned the whose life for us ad capitol hill. hello there she have. let's start with georgia. what's being said about the polls then? it's very difficult to know how many votes are outstanding, whether the number of votes that are still being to be counted will be enough to

put either the republican or democratic candidates over 50 percent, 50 percent, plus one in order to avoid. in order to avoid a run off, it's going to be interesting to really look at the data and see what happened and why. why was so place? was it because of abortion? once again, which despite that fence from the polls, but we issued subsided somewhat in the minds of independent voters with the democratic base in favor of the economy that did become a major issue. it would appear in other races which got the democratic based of the polls, which got independence. voting, the swing, voters voting and in the mid terms will about all about turn out. it's interesting though, what's interesting about this particular case is if it does go to run off in december, it's clear that there were

a number of voters in georgia who were prepared to vote for a republican governor bron kemp who won very easily as, as the republican governor of georgia were not felt that they were unable to vote for herschel walker, the republican senate candidate for whatever reason. and that has been a lot of control this year round him have an allegation of, despite his staunch anti abortion position, he himself, their allegations have paid for abortions for former former partners. and they've been just general general disgruntlement amongst some about his grasp of the issues is extreme, assume his closest to the, the, to the mag wing of the party. now if it really does come down to that ga, run off in december, and we do still have iris and nevada which is still in play which might settle everything. but if the balance of power or in the cell, it doesn't, the depend on that runoff election in december will those who are inclined towards the republicans who voted for the republican governor still feel that they're

unable to virtual national work of such an unacceptable candidate will they say, look for the good of the party and to prevent democratic control of the senate. we will walker nonetheless. so that's, that's going to be a key issue. and she have, what about arizona? what have been the big issues that have played out of the ballot box that actually that was the prize that abortion was still a major issue that was being said to the posters. unlike many other races, almost on a po, it's not over the economy in our isn't it? because the republican candidate has such an extreme position on abortion. and it was clear that he had made a lot of people in the suburbs and the democratic base, very nervous to such an extent in the fact that at one point, he actually scrubbed his website off because extreme positions on abortion suggested he wasn't quite so extreme now this will be another test than that we've

seen up and down the country. off a trump endorsed extreme, make america great again, magar, magnet candidates as we get, as those results are still being counted. and now we actually understand that hundreds of thousands of votes still have yet to be counted. so this 1 may go on for a few more days as well. in j. thank you very much for the update she have returns live for us and capitol hill to the rest of the days news now on facebook, parent company mehta has announced it will be sacking more than 11000 employees. that's around 13 percent of a reduction of its workforce. c, r mark zach a burg says he. hi. more stop. during the pandemic that revenue has now slowed down . the company has extended hiring frames, technology, journalist, and also chris stock, a walker. it says that the berg has a new vision for meta, but not everyone's pleased about the changes. incredibly unfortunate news and i think indicates just how much struggle there is for tech companies right now to

retain and keep staff at a time when things are really, really tough for them. obviously matters. layoffs, 11000 people, dwarfs twitter, so low. when you look at the actual proportion of the company, this is something like 13 percent of the organization. it's almost 90000 people that are employees worldwide. but we, we have indications that you know, some of these cuts will come in recruiting in other different areas. and largely, it seems because a box of the founder and ceo of matter says, do you see the pandemic and changing priorities? which is a huge shift for this book. obviously big for the tech company in the big sector world, chose a sort of stag nation of sorts with matter. we know that they made their name off the back of social media room. see lots of us knew the company and its previous guys is facebook. it also instagram and also what's up to key communication tools

that we use to day out. but really messaging mess. facebook in general has, has kind of been stalling for a while. facebook, the food service. and the website hasn't seen that many uses joining it ever since pretty much the last 5 or 10 years. it's kind of got a reputation. i was being very, very on cool and in it's place smoke. so i suppose trying to find the future for the company. still head on al jazeera, more than 9 people dead after an overnight attack in democratic republic of congo. ah, as the thunderstorms disappear from lose all and this is them to spring up, the smaller japanese and japanese islands we left with our forecast of finding looking weather because the rain do tend to come fast at this time of year and the

band that is at its most heavy does indeed go through maybe the sudden and central philippines, but also kills down towards foss at the thailand, sumatra, malaysia, singapore. and then to was java as well beyond that before crosses of daily sandstone, which is a normal thing. if we follow that line of thunderstorms up, they come up for say to the minor japanese islands, it's find the north of that. still it a bit warm and tokyo ok in the korean peninsula. significant light of rain, no is developing with cold air tucked behind it. in northern chance of finding the temperature coming down in places like jam and maybe beijing, but it's still warm and go hung down towards south case. it's sas of the yangtze temperatures are well above or they should be fall to 10 degrees above where they should be. it cannot last, but it's there for a while. anyway, with the ne monsoon just giving you a bit of a boost the circulation here, i think we'll see some very wet weather again in tamara modern sir lanka, the rest of india's valley drive. there are a few showers,

ran new delhi and evening. la hall, not enough to stir up the rather dirty atmosphere. ah, with oh, a news. ah ah.

. 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 for food and baby cripps. this bunker can house hundreds of people. those. marcia loses middle school at the owner left the don best region in the east of the russia invaded. now the family faces a harsh winter spooky cities. 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, but quivery has been targeted by russian forces. the prospect of leaving, again is a very real one. 0, in another part of the city, a soviet era nuclear bunker is being used to show a foot would much 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. yeah. way. oh i like that was for here i'm cheer for my football team and i believe we went over the world. it would be better to watch it in a stadium, but 3, a 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 visit a tributary u. s. basketball player brittney griner is being transferred to a russian pain or colony where she is expected to carry out work. griner was sentenced to 9 years in prison in august for smuggling and possessing cannabis oil . her lawyers say they don't know exactly where she's being moved to. protest is in place, have clashed in grace as 1000 stage and nationwide strike against the rising cost of living place to fight t gas. while protest is held, henshaw bombs and stones at offices at guarding the parliament building. in athens,

a rural boat out of the household budgets this year. grease imports a huge amount of its energy, almost a 100 percent of its hydrocarbons and is paying top dollar for gasoline that goes into cars for diesel that moves, goods around in trucks. and of course for natural gas, which now heats many homes in the winter. this is, i think you might call it say, a preemptive action. a preemptive political street theater. probably with a lot more to come through the winter, depending on how harsh winter it is. france says easily, the actions are unacceptable. after rome refused to allow several migrant rescue ships to dock for vessels carrying asylum seekers were initially denied permission to come to shore in the past week, some were lighter allowed to talk and disembarked passengers. it's part of a cracked down by italy's new far right wing government. now one ships headed to

france instead. tiny bentley is in catania with more on the response from italy's new government. we're hearing that there are divisions within the administration and we have spoken to members of the brothers of italy, party the party of ga maloney. they were quite adamant when i spoke to them yesterday that you know, at the, in their words, she will walk the line, she will not back down. he will continue to have his hard line approach. but of course, at the end of day, as we've seen, they haven't promised is a one thing. reality is another. and i think the government has learned a lesson that what it promises is not always what they can keep. and they have got to do a different policy now, because the rescue ships that we have been featuring, going back out as soon as possible. i will still continue to save lives because this will not stop people trying to seek a safer and better life is still going to come from africa. they're still going to put up with a terrible conditions at sea, especially starting now in the winter. and people will drown,

and without these rescue ships, the casualty rate would be higher and higher. so it's important for them to carry on. and the italian government has to face reality. its opponents to say that these people should be allowed in and be give, come given compassionate in democratic republic of congo, at least 9 people have been killed in an attack in the north eastern city of veney . a rebel group called the allied democratic forces is being blamed for the violence on tuesday night. it comes as the government renews in the fight against another rebel group. am 23. malcolm webb has more from a camping government for those have been displaced by the violence. 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. or with me is baptist,

through zone logistics manager for the charity doctors without borders who've been providing some services at this health center. what are the conditions like, have 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 these speakers, tens of thousands of people have arrived now and taking refuge in generic genia. so, so now we are facing many, many needs and also um the increase for example, of consultation here. and also the living conditions are that are really tough. we're sa with shall really small shelters and people living nearly on each other. so it's really complicated. what kinds of health problems is that causing o, as of a risk of the, the main risk would be, for example, because as people are living in very tough condition was odd term, for example, almost no sanitary stretchers. or we have a lot of risk for example to have um,

disease like co there are like, ah, with the rainy seasons you have for what to bone disease. you have also measles. so, so we are, we are trying to, to manage, to suspect cases and also to, to, to answer and to, to manage, stir the risk we face potentially big setback for synagogue with the world comp. just 11 days away. weight reports fair star players. sadie. my name is in down for the tournament. i yet to receive confirmation from this angle is football association after the reigning african player of the years, sat at a knock seeking shin. are playing for bain, munich on tuesday. a forward couldn't continue and was replaced 20 minutes into the game. the defining images of world comp, sir often captured by photographers working for newspapers, websites, and agencies. the biggest archive of those photos in the world is held by getty

images in london, and is harry, forth found out those pictures, powerfully evocative? oh, we're here in counting town in east london amid the industrial estates and the storage centers. at the heart of it all is the getty images archive, and we're here to meet its boss, matthew batson, who happens to be a football fan, and we're on the hunt for some world cup treasure. matthew, nice to meet you for you to ok. so this is the largest commercial archive in the world, 80000000 bits of gloss, paper, plastic, otherwise known as we get him in his archive. wow. and let's see what we can find in terms of the very 1st of what a k. so this is woke up,

the early woke up for he says, he says $38.00, says uruguay. i will be in here somewhere. some of this is a bit grainy because oversee this was from new spaces time. people weren't really sending photographers, you know, from europe. i mean, that's a great show. it really is, is that the final is up a fernandez project share and texas garden, the celebration their victory. so it can't be in an archive in england without talking about $966.00 that solar turned into memories. the that's the iconic, short composition which is actually perfect, allow for nearby stalls without his teeth and the light on his face in the car. it's actually been shot aside from the action on the pitch, there are some pretty standard images around the whole event, right? a show i love is pele training in the rain. that is fantastic. so early sir, the rest of the squad too. i'm not doing that. this is so pretty. but the young fan

just really after and also grow. yeah, and it's quite sad, you know, as we know, probably received records on so didn't the impact of people that he's talking autograph book. absolutely. and you wonder who that, that go is whether he still got that will from the some i fi found some others here. i'm in straight away, the eyes drawn to something that the referee didn't see on the day. some of the commentators didn't see on the day, but it's pretty clearly in that picture. it's such an iconic picture merit on his hand of god. it just shows you know, capturing the decisive moment and just clicking that shot the, just that the right find one of my key memories from childhood is this one for months in mind. you guys again like marathon, i apologize, opinion, but a genius of a football player and you know, you really always harness honestly, he got a yellow caught it real enough from the final you know,

whether we're going to get to the final it's not to come up says because optimizing on everything goes digital, so this is where we need to be to check out all the the more recent low cost. i'm probably thinking of it in a down you know, this amazing football. yeah. having this moment of math and again it's, it's back to the moment you know, just having the presence of mind because obviously lots of other stuff going on at the time and be very easy to, you know, be focusing on whatever. and then suddenly it's all know that somebody else is going to say, i think we've got to have eyes in the best way ahead sometimes. and in terms of the historical nature of the defeat by germany of brazil in 2014. and we are never going to a $71.00 and humiliating defeat in their own stadium. you could say, yeah, you'd need a montage of those 7 goals to tell that story. but one shot tell us that story is always the iconic chart from each woke up and you can.
