russia orders its troops to withdraw from house on city emitter ukrainian counter offensive. keith says it sees no signs of a pull out. ah . lauren taylor, this is owners here, alive from london, wasn't coming up. control of congress hangs in the balance with the republicans set to take the house in the us mid terms. but the senate race is on a knife edge. meta becomes the latest tech company to announce mass layoffs, cutting woven $11000.00 jobs and a brewing diplomatic route between france and italy. ever. who should taken hundreds of asylum seekers? stuff on the rescue ship. ah, i know the russian military says its withdrawing its troops from

a major battleground in southern ukraine. in what would be a humiliating set back for president vladimir putin's forces for several weeks. ukrainian forces have been advancing in the house on region fighting to retake territory, inch by inch. it's one of the 4 regions moscow annexed in september. now, russia's defense minister has ordered his troops to retreat from the western bank of the ne pro river near the city of her own and set up the fences on the eastern bank. on is the only regional capital russia has managed to seize during the invasion. for you as well. so having comprehensively assess the situation, i propose that we take up defensive position along the left bank of the denay pro river. i understand this is a very difficult decision. at the same time, we will save most importantly, the lives of our troops and the overall combat effectiveness of our forces, whom it is futile to keep on the right bank in a restricted area. in addition,

it will free up some forces and means they will be used for active operations, including offensive ones on other fronts. adding to the sense of disarray around the house on the russian installed, governor regent says that she has been killed in a car crash. heroes trim herself was highly visible on social media, giving regular updates about the frontline fighting and more recently about the evacuation of civilians. i'm in val in moscow has more on rushes, not spent. it's withdrawing from the russian army is unable for the moment to defend the city. of course, on we know that they have been asking civilians to leave the place that has been going on for several weeks now. but there was no expectation here in russia about this will be followed by an army withdrawing from san remember in the military strategy armies usually when they are defeated in a spot,

they don't know ahead of time, but they are going to withdraw from any area until they have finished that with their own. so i mean, it's not clear. the picture is not clear for the moment whether that withdrawal has already taken place. or it is going to start from the statements here in moscow. it's going to start. but we don't know what is what is happening on the ground and the ukrainians are taking this very cautiously, fearing that there might be a drop, her son is the only capital. among those 4, yes, that has been occupied by the russian troops and russia considered that this is not an occupation. they say it is a constitutionally, constitutionally an annexation of a land that belongs to russia. so that is very awkward here. going to be seen very awkwardly in the eyes of the russian public. this is a rational land protected by the constitution. the prussia has been preparing and adding to the number of the troops in order to,

to defend this land. remember that russia doesn't to control all the region of on the control on the part of it. and now they're going to leave you as a bag in net creevy lee in central ukraine. he's just returned from house on and tell us about the suppose it pull back. well also heard from the russian general circus hurricane and he said that her song and the area around it, they cannot provide for it. and they're wonderful. they want to protect civilians and that's why they returned to the other side of the river. now he also said that one of the reasons or the reason that they withdrawing is because they have information that the ukrainians want to bomb that. damn that for that damn further up the river are both sides have been accusing each other of targeting that dam and damaging it both sides of accusing to the of wanting to blow it up. now the russians are saying the ukrainians want to blow up, and if that is blown up, recruit, ukrainian president of luck to ms. lensky said it would be a disaster, but to, to also flood the area and create and not sure what

a barrier between the ukrainian tooth and the russian to. now ukraine has been commenting. one of the presidential advisors said that there is no sign that dear russian troops are withdrawing. in fact, the russia, russian, my power has been voting to the region. so they don't believe the russians run. the commanders in the south has said that they don't route act provocation for, from, from russia unfolds impression. and another said the actions speak louder than words, and there's no signs that the russians are leaving her. so now we have spent time, in course on, on the front lines with the ukranian military as they mounted this counter offensive. ah, this is how the battle for her song is being fought. automobile lottery crews targeting russian forces just kilometers away. they have the coordinates, it's a quick, 2 shots, and then they have to move go good and good. we had to

get out the way really quickly, because the russians can locate where the artery was fired from. so we have to move away before they return, fire crews can run to their targets from small commercial drones back where they are hidden away from russian drones. they can take a moment to rest, thought us, most of the navi, dominate. they are slowly retreating. russians used all reserves, so they can only reach our frontline, suppose one of he has a wife and child at home and says being away from them has been tough drawn them. the situation is drones is complicated. they are flying always every day and every hour of the it was scary only at the beginning of more so i would just do our job even. when's a fire back at us? it dont panic. we are used to war. awful thought the weapons are sometimes twice as old as the men who used them. this crew writes a name of their fallen on missiles. we're told the majority of times,

the russians fy back quickly. this crew has lost friends with me, faith. as a commander, this curious thing is to lose people well ever. one here in the infantry, artillery and engineering brigades is carried to be under the enemy's arthur fire. some russians use everything they got. the crew stays out of sight and awaits orders and coordinates to move and fire was, but i certainly this is a war of drones. in most cases, hardly fire adjustments are made from drones. bo small commercial ones and larger ones have made the different lank a man. it's just the front lines have moved quickly of late. these trenches will once facing the enemy, but so horrible a bluish russians were close a few months before. but now the front line is moving jets and drones are always flying overheads. but for observation only, mostly it's russian drones. we don't see them, but they keep flying. life is basic in the trenches, but they're waiting here. they believe in a matter of time,

they were retake her son. and if they do, it will be the defining moment of this will as you've seen there this war is one of artillery, shelling missiles and drones and a word of caution when we were in course on, in a village. there was a constant artillery battle going on between the russians and the ukrainians. now, even if the russians withdrew to the other side of the river, the east side of the river, her san city is well in the range of the artillery they miss solve and drones. and even here today, just before we came on live, there were a series of explosions around this city. so russia is able to strike. so just because the russians are saying that they are going to withdraw to the east side of the river, it doesn't mean that this war is over. they want to protect carson and the russian officials have been really talking up about the battle of cassandra said that it would be the decisive one of this war, likening it to the 2nd world war battle of starting grad, where there were approximately 2000000 casualties. so they have said that this is

a decisive battle, and that's why the ukrainians are treating what the russians have said, with a great deal of skepticism at this point in time. i think thanks very much indeed. what are the whole, joins this live from the ukrainian capital, kiva gives a bit more of indication of what the reaction has been there to, to this news. but it's been greeted popularly, at least as a major ukrainian triumph on social media. here in the capital, key of people walking their horns as the news emerged, as indeed if this news is all it purports to be, it would be a huge ukrainian france, the surrender of hassle and by the russians, the only regional capital they've been able to take or occupied during the entirety of this war. it would put ukraine decisively on the front foot. but the government here in key is, is being decidedly circumspect about all of this cautious, if not outright skeptical they have watched in recent weeks as signs of men to the

what is looked like a phased or plan to manage withdrawal by the russians from east the west bank a big part of the city to the east bank in the face of that building, ukrainian offensive coming down from the north. and they wondered whether perhaps their being lewis into a trap. the ukrainian forces entering an apparently empty parasol to be set upon by hidden russian forces in street fighting or mercilessly pummeled from across the river on the east side. so the response so far from the government coming from a senior adviser to blow to me as the landscape kind of portfolio has been this, ukraine does not pay attention to russian statements. its words and actions and actions differ. some russian forces, he said, remain in her song and additional russian manpower is being brought in until the ukrainian flag flies in her soul. he said it is too early to talk of the russian withdrawal. and if it does turn out to be a withdraw,

how significant would it be for the russian forces having to retreat from house on what we heard of it in this remote valley? in moscow, it would be an enormous humiliation for russian forces, a huge humiliation for vladimir putin who only a few weeks ago. remember, declared the annexation of 4, you cranial regions including of course, the region of her soul, which he said would be russian for ever. it would also represent the dismantling of that land corridor between crimea and the russian mainland, which was a sing singular achievement of the early portion of this war. and something that's not me if we wouldn't want to give up, even in the context of peace talks, and then it would open up the rest of that land corridor to potential future ukrainian assault. so russian forces have been given orders now to dig in to set up the defenses. not just on the east bank of the denise pro outside hershawn, but further up as well. protecting cities like milly topple 30. and of course the

devastated maria paul turner. how thank you very much need ah the u. s. midterm elections of turned into a breathtaking the close battle for control of congress and the future of president jo biden's agenda. the democratic party has defined expectations that biden's low approval ratings and anger over inflation. would propel republicans to a large victory, a so called red wave has turned out to be more of a ripple. republicans, a still expected to take control of the house of representatives, but by a smaller margin than expected. the senate is still a toss up. the republicans currently have 49 seats and the democrats, 48. all eyes are on the battleground, states of arizona, georgia and nevada. and it wasn't a great night for candidates, backed by donald trump. many of him support his false allegations that the 2020

presidential election was rate. they've only not stop one high profile when so far . j. d vance, securing a senate seat in a higher. despite that in last few minutes, trump has said that while the election was somewhat disappointing from his personal standpoint, it was a very big victory. rosalind dog wraps up the mid term result so far. not what it was billed as the red wave of 2022 republicans winning control of congress to become president. jo biden's biggest political obstacle. but democrats of want several important races. helpful being is john thurman, who overcame both of stroke and stiff competition from the celebrity. dr. murmured ours, i'm proud of it. we ran on health care is a fundamental human right? yes. good saying that if you don't be there, will you? the mid terms came after months of republicans accusing democrats of plotting to

steal boat despite fears of potential disruptions at polling st. since 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 mob horta as well. oh, our country flounders. 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. 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 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 al jazeera as me tom white house correspondent, kimberly how catch and kimberly, what's the message today in the us after the so called red wave didn't materialize? well, i think the message that many americans are taking away from this is that you can't trust the polls. what many are starting to realize is that the polls were really measuring only a portion of america. when we start to look at some of the numbers. what they're

starting to see is that the polls are really answering telephone calls. that's how they're getting a lot of their data. and a lot of young people don't have landline, so they were really counted. and so this red wave was really factoring in the older voters that's tend to lean more conservative, but when it comes to the so called gen z are younger voter under 30, they came out in much stronger numbers than anyone expected. in other words, some democrats are saying they did their job. i. in other words, what they were doing is allowing some of these democratic incumbents in the house of representatives to stay in their roles. and it allowed for those trump back to republicans to not take away those seats. what this means moving forward is that the hopes of some of these conservatives in the united states who hope to undo some of the biden agenda, whether be climate change of put in place stricter abortion laws or

a anti abortion laws, or even to try and undo some of the presidents work when it comes to fixing roads and infrastructure. all of that may not happen now. and in what's going to have to happen is if there is a republican majority, it's going to be a very narrow one. which means that there may actually have to be some bipartisanship or this going to be gridlock. and so these politicians are going to have to make a choice what the next 2 years are going to look like. but in terms of what the message and the take away as clearly as that you can't trust the polls. and we're going to hear from president button about 2 hours time. what, what the white house take away on it. well, the way house take away is that this is a reason for optimism and that there has been no wholesale rejection of the biden legislative agenda. just the opposite of what the white house is saying in all of this is this has been a rejection of the former president. trump's agenda sort of the extreme right wing

conservative agenda because we see that a lot of the former trump back candidates did not perform well at all if at all and what we expect to hear from the president. he's already tweeted that he's going to the bank a lot of the poll workers that worked late into the night. those that came out to vote at vote and defend democracy. and also that he really feels that he has not only a mandate for the next 2 years, but possibly the next 4 and 2024. in other words, the president feels that even though voters have given him low marks when it comes to doing his job, that they like the goals that he is trying to accomplish. thank you very much indeed. still to come this ha ah flushes and disruption as greek workers go on a day, long strike demanding higher wages as inflation surges affairs injury could force one of the biggest names in football out of the world cup.

ah, as we approached winter temperatures rising across europe, yet ascending congress on the details, but because the driving force of the weather is the atlantic, which is relatively warm, yes, can bring from that direction. so despite what happens in the sky, temperatures do tend to recover at the moment, then we go to picture. in the northern half of europe caught a strong southwesterly, windsor, temperatures, crusty. you care about 567 degrees above the average, even more than that. and places that transfers across the denmark rest, his sudden scandinavia, there is some snow in the high ground. otherwise we're talking about occasional range. how's the waltz to some degree is spreading across the rest of europe as well. now is preceded by rain and they'll be significant rain in some parts of italy, slovenia, and particularly developing in the barracks. and then i think by friday or not

eastern side of spain and portugal is fine. it's warming up again and lithia not to reco values that looks like tempted to white well drop with the rain in nebo caress, but again, not much is the overall picture. let's pick somewhere like warsaw take a slightly closer look. now also to tell you should be about 6 and a half degrees by day. we're well above that and we stay that way for friday, saturday, and indeed, sunday braden still a potential problem to west africa. but it is hopefully and probably going further sex ah, jumping to the stream where no topic is off the table. i don't think anybody should be going to be in a day. we are the subject, the little family left, one person's opinion, but what's your, amplify your voice. the judicial system in mexico is incredibly weak and it is not

just corruption. claire, a global audience, becomes a global community. the scariest part of this moment in my country is this place for a more weapon? the st. oh, now joseph. ah, leave me a marble top story until now to 0. the russian military says it's withdrawing from a major battle ground in southern ukraine. russia's defense minister has ordered trips to pull back from house on ukraine has expressed caution and the us midterm elections extend into a tight battle, a control of congress and the future of president dro biden's agenda. democratic party defied expectations that are low approval ratings and anger is inflation.

france as it's unacceptable with the italian government, refused to allow several migrant rescue ships to dogs. for vessels carrying asylum seekers were initially denied permission to come to shore in sicily. somewhere later allowed to dock and to some bog passengers. it's part of a crack down by actually new far right wing government. one of the ships is now on its way to france instead. terry berkeley as more from the cillian port of catan. yes. we're hearing that there are divisions within the administration and we have spoken to members of the brothers of italy, policy, the policy of georgia, maloney. they were quite adamant when i spoke to them yesterday that you know of the words, she will walk the line, she will not back down, he will continue to have his hotline approach. but of course, at the end of the day, as we see, they haven't promises 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 life 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 the terrible conditions at sea, especially starting now in the winter. and people will out without these rescue ships, the casualty rate will 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 compassion. a tech drawn matter which earns facebook, instagram, and whatsapp has announced the largest job cuts in its 18 year history. $11000.00 people, that's 13 percent of its workforce will lose their jobs in one of the years. biggest layoffs? the cuts come days to twitters new owner. the billionaire businessmen in on mosque 5, around 50 percent of the social media. john's 7 and a half 1000 employees,

although he has since trying to hire some of them back. it's not just social media last week. the right hailing up, lift that it was laying off 13 percent of his workforce that many $700.00 people. and the online payments giant stripe is foreign 14 percent of its workers affecting around $1100.00 people off the hiring aggressively to meet demand during the pandemic. c o. mark zuckerberg said he had expected growth to continue, but he's now admitted he got this wrong with advertisers pulling out an economic instability. revenue is lower than expected. right now. so it's live from the menlo park in california. and what details do we have about these layoffs? well, you know, a lauren is mark sucker in his statement attributed the layoffs to all of those factors that, that you mentioned just now. but a analysts say there's another big factor that he didn't dwell on, and that is his massive bed. on the bed of verse zuckerberg apparently felt that

everyone would want to work, play socialized, game, et cetera, using a virtual reality headsets. that hasn't happened, of people who used the companies ocoee las headset were underwhelmed. some said it was actually kind of an isolating an unpleasant experience. and zuckerberg had thrown hundreds of millions, billions of dollars at this virtual reality. mad. diverse concepts. none of that has and out. so he's been forced to, to try and retrench. in addition, facebook is no longer the coolest kid on the block. the, the people who are going on facebook now tend to be older. tick tock is the ruler of the social media, new universe, as far as the kids. and then the shoot, me considerable, $101.00 in the tech world. what, why is that happening?

yeah, well, you mentioned, i think a stripe and lift. also, zillow, which is a real estate application, lift the, the well known a ride share apps. all of them are cutting back. and a lot of it has to do with the failure of these companies to really calculate how consumers were going to behave. coming out of the pandemic, they did hire a lot of people during a cove at 19, and perhaps hired, apparently hired through many all. so there are economic conditions of worldwide inflation. perhaps people are thinking wise about hailing a ride share apps and certainly given the prices a given the given the interest rates on mortgages. here people are less likely to be using. i home buying app like zillow. so all of this came together and it is been of time of refreshment for tech doesn't mean the tech is going to go away,

or these companies are going to disappear, but it's going to be a lean couple of months years. we'll see reynolds. thank you very much. thousands of people in greece have taken part in a general strike against the rising cost of living abate schools were shot and flights and public transport suffered severe disruptions. unions of demanding low taxes and an increase to the minimum wage. inflation hit 12 percent in september the highest in 2 decades. china has only got 27 summit. it would be willing to contribute to a fund to compensate poorer countries on the front line of climate change. its top official, at the event in china shake, she sang, her added that china felt no obligation to participate, but was doing so as an expression of solidarity. china and the u. s. have previously held informal talks on climate change, but she says the u. s. suspended those negotiations. woman son. whoa. who made sure
