is celebrating, one of its most significant victory since russia's invasion in february, ukrainian forces have entered the southern city of hassan o residence to welcome the soldiers. the ukrainian flag has been raised on public monuments, president for him as lensky has hailed it. as an historic day, his son is the only regional capital that was taken by russia. it's retreat is being seen as one of its biggest setbacks of the war. ukraine. it could use this advice to expand its counter offensive to other occupied territories, including crime mirror, which at moscow seized in 2014 russian forces have set up new positions on the eastern bank of that in the pro river. right, opposite hassan city, giving them a strong base to escalate the war. if they choose to. i said, beg, met relieved residents who have lived under russian occupation for several months now. on the march to her son, the ukrainian military has advanced fast since russia withdrew its forces. and this

is how local people greeted their countrymen. o crowds cheering and chanting glory to our heroes, glory to ukraine. the russian flag no longer flies here. during the withdrawal, russia and ukraine have traded blame over damage to the antenna epsky bridge. it's sharon, the marcus, our armed forces hit the russians during the withdrawal from the city when they were trying to escape using ferries. in the area of ant ascii bridge, the bomb being cause the destruction of many vehicles and personnel. they have also left a large number of vehicles behind near richard is. russia says it left no equipment or personnel behind video posted by the ukrainians. tell a different story. her son has been occupied since the beginning of the war. president vladimir zalinski cause a russian withdrawal and important victory were surely an installation in day to day is a historic day for grain. we are bringing back 1000 ukraine. we're bringing back

her son, ukrainian sources and cited city citizens are waiting for our soldiers. i'm very happy and i'm on the run residents who've lived under russian occupation or relieved for now was night when the total idea. yeah, the new. yeah, but a blogger, you know, do that. i can't find the what i want to cry. that'd be the work constant explosions, but now it's so quiet. we can't get used to it how the place was liberated. everyone felt so strange and so scared by the silence. but you know, hearing this silence is so good that know that they said that's your quarters. the is the most decisive. thank you so far and embarrassing for moscow, it's boosted the morale of ukrainian soldiers who say they now believe they can win this war. russian force is still control a considerable amount of territory and are able to strike targets here. and course on region, as well as the rest of ukraine. some ukrainian, a fearful of returning to the hands of villages because of the destruction and

potential minds that i've been left behind. this will goes to show that the war is still far from over. as big as the 0 hassan region. ok, giles is a rush expert at the conflict studies research center. he says, the full of tests on this damaging form that he may putin. it is huge. of course, it's something which president puts in and his proper again to operate as cannot explain to the russian population who have been sold the story for so long that this isn't a war. it's a special military operation. and it's going well for russia. this is the kind of setback that is absolutely undeniable. and that of course, puts president put in in a difficult position. in fact, he's in the corner. he painted himself into 6 weeks ago when he declared the annexation of those ukrainian territories and said they would be rushing for ever. that's the kind of rhetorical bind which you can't extricate yourself from through spin or through propaganda. let's not forget that annexation declaration was made in a rush. they brought forward the,

the timings of the sham referendum was because they saw the successful ukrainian offensive. and plainly there was greater confidence in russia than was merited. that they would actually be able to hold onto these areas. so it just makes the ukrainian success all the more startling that they forced russia into this position, where they have to give up a major city and pull back to a defensive lines behind a river. fighting has flared up in the eastern democratic republic of congo, where soldiers are battling in 23 rebels on several fronts. the m 23 has had a major resurgence this year, forcing nearly 200000 people from their homes. in july human rights watch said the armed group had killed that these $29.00 civilians in areas under its control since mid june, including 2 teenagers, many of the victims were accused of being informants for the congress army. others were civilians looking for food. l. m. 23 has blamed other armed groups for the killings. its recent advance ascent attention. soaring with rwanda was the conquer

. these governments accuses of supporting the rebels. i'll come web has more from the eastern city of goma and a warning. this report contains disturbing images. ah gloria, not her real name says she was pregnant when she was gang raped by fighters from the n 23 rebel group earlier this year. and $23.00 fighting government forces here in the east of democratic republic of congo is widely understood to be a proxy of neighboring rwanda. although everyone that denies it glorious as m. 23 fighters came into the ball, she ran, started drinking beer and smashing bottles. to join me, come back in 3 men rate me before i fed conscious there was nobody to help me. when i woke up i was in hospital, my neighbor had rescued me. i don't know what they used because it was badly torn, and the bladder was leaking. glorious baby died before she gave birth and was

surgically removed. now she's joined the nearly 200000 people who fled their homes . the conditions in the camp subsides, risen can food or clean water, and the shelters don't keep out the rain. while congos army and most of its armed groups are accused of widespread right to be says, the fact that tens of thousands of people have chosen to come here, leaving behind their homes and their farms give some indication of just how scared they are of m 23 rwanda's army and the armed groups who supported have been accused of carrying out massacres and rights abuses in eastern congo. since the 1990s. it's always denied the allegations. rwandan soldiers were photographed with n 23 fighters 5 months ago. we asked them $23.00 about reports of rights and pieces . it spokesmen sent this video clip denying all the allegations made in this story . who are these people?

they are so many people were extra amused, talking not to destroy us. they are walking with the government. when congress army defeated them 239 years ago we filmed the bodies of prisoners, tied up and shot dead in the bases. they fled. some of the prisoners appeared to have been kept in pits in the ground, which is what this man says. m 23 did to him earlier this year. he says m. $23.00 fighters accused him of supporting enemy militia and beat him for 3 days, demanding a confession. then he says he was tied up and thrown in pits with other prisoners for 3 weeks before being released. his wife thought he was dead 99 quickly. you can lean on one way or the other, but you cannot that i doubt and list when it rains, what the car we are looking like bigs because of the might be the beat. once i did that, that anti is one. i'm and text it to or the please don't have to read it. it is the

life we suffered. this school classroom is home for now. outside, others, sleeping in shelters made on broken rocks. the struggle for control of minerals below the ground has made east and congo the center of regional conflicts and brights abuses for decades. people here wonder if they'll ever be left in peace. malcolm web out 0 go ma, democratic republic of congo. us present. joe biden has arrived in cambodia to attend the austrian summit. biden will meet the southeast asian leaders to discuss the sparring violence in the and russian aggression in ukraine. and chinese military activities in disputed waters. attorney chang joins us live now from the canadian capital, non pen. so tony, what can expect today will exactly that. as you mentioned, the job buttons arrived. he's got a couple of hours off after

a long journey overhead by cairo. but later on this afternoon, he'll be meeting as c n as a group, but also having a bi lashelle with cambodian prime minister. and i think the message is going to be to try and find some kind of unity in this region for support with the war in ukraine. also, a lot of focus on china at the moment. i think the united states is trying to gather countries in this region behind them to, to reinforce the idea that they don't have to necessarily full and locks that behind china. that there is an alternative that something the united states is china in the past with barack obama and his pivot to asia. but i think a lot of people within a year was it was slightly disabused. the idea of when there wasn't any follow up. so i think his message here will be the united states is back in this region and it's back to stay. but also, i think they'll be wanting a lot of reassurance from him that he's got a strong hold the economy,

a lot of economists in this region, the being hit very hard by rising inflation rates, hearing cambodia alone, people are looking at 20 to 25 percent rate of inflation and that's really starting to pinch hard, and i think people will want to hear from joe biden. he's got a strong economic policy to try and steer mobile it inflation rates down a little bit and bring some relief. and what came out of the talks from causing the situation in, mima. well, that was always going to be tough of the agenda, but we always knew it was going to be very complicated. we saw yesterday evening. yes. yeah, releasing a statement saying they were committed to the 5 point plan. thing that was pretty expensive, but no further definite action than i think, not the condemnation that some of the countries within this grouping were hoping for. in fact, we saw the indonesian president coming out of the meeting saying he was deeply disappointed. nonetheless, i think it is such a divisive issue within

a year and some companies wanting appeasement. others really wanting to try and hold the generals to account for the military coup that it was. it was unlikely we were going to get any very definite statement here. i think what the cambodian has effect to be done is push it down the road to next year when indonesia will be the chair of us and i think they will definitely be pushing for much firmer action. but it's likely that joe biden will also be pushing for a harder line on me. and the last time i was here, the nice yeah. meeting rocket bama had just come from me and i think there was a feeling then that mamma couldn't turn back. well, it has, i think the americans will be very keen to push to get democracy back on track in one of the neighboring countries. okay. really that, that tiny chang. thank you. so the head here now to sarah parts of columbia, which one of nerds will tell you what's behind the warning and desperate times call

for desperate measures. argentina's government fails to inflation what it means because consumes, ah, anticipation is rising. so with our airways. hello there. let's look to east asia and not a drop of rain has fallen in tokyo since the start of the month. we'll that's about to change. thanks to this front, that's pulling its way across northern areas of china, bringing some really wet, windy and wintry weather. it's pulling across the korean peninsula on saturday, dropping temperatures for the likes of so, so really done that across more central areas of china. and we'll see that reflected in shanghai. certainly on sunday, dropping down to 18 degrees celsius. a lot of heat, however,

still to be found in southern areas for the likes of hong kong. the things are brought to change it further east of this for japan. you can see that system being heavy rains stretching all the way down from kinder further north. and if we have a look at the 3 day for tokyo, let's set to arrive on sunday. the temperature dipping down certainly by monday now was move across to south asia. for northern areas of india and pakistan was seen temperatures slightly below the average for this time of year. but it's a lot dry up here. it's down south within the worst of the wet weather for places like tom will not do as well as carol that shall anchor as well. seems some fierce thunderstorms as the wetter weather pulls its way further west from the bay of bengal. some winds blowing along the east coast, but lots of sunshine to be found in the north to with sponsored by cats. are they always a

ah ah, watching out here reminds of our top stores its out ukrainian celebrate, has their forces retained the southern city of hassan is the only regional capital that russian troops had captured. russia's retreat is being seen as

a major setback on getting people escaping m. 23 rebels in the democratic republic of congo. say they have been sexually assaulted and tortured companies. army has been striking mental health territory and boarded with rwanda. one of the world's largest crypto currency exchange is, has filed for bankruptcy, and united states f t x says it's seeking court protection, as it looks for a way to return the money to uses the company seo assignment bank. when freight will also step down f t x this week agreed to sell itself to larger level finance, but the deal fell through about whether x had enough capital. okay, and goodman is a crypto currency consultant for the financial platform. e toro and author of the book, the crypto trader. he says sam apartment feeds rise and fall has been equally spectacular . is a pretty horrible kind of situation. but at the same time it withholdings, i feel to me almost inevitable because this guy rose from nowhere. so fast to

suddenly get a few years ago, nobody knew who he was. and then suddenly he was on the stage with bill clinton, tony blair, giselle bunch, and suddenly one of the world's greatest philanthropists we were told. and it all just happened. so suddenly i couldn't help but feel a bit uncomfortable at the time. now that's not to say that i knew that there was anything wrong with what he was doing. but when you build up a huge trading platform that quickly so that it's suddenly worth tens of billions, sometimes i guess it takes shortcuts in order to build up a company that quickly we don't know the full details of what happened and what he did. but we do know that there were certain amounts of tokens that he created out effectively at nothing they became worth lots of money and then were told he was using them allegedly as collateral to finance loans and other investments. and so that way these, these tokens,

which are now worth very little of where we're sort of built upon to build a bigger structure. and then of course is a house of cards that comes collapsing down. there will be investigations. and also of course, there are calls for more regulation, but the, the great irony of all of this, as far as i'm concerned, is that it was poor regulation in the united states that actually forced most of the crypto trading business off. sure. you are share prices have surged off to report, showed annual consumer price inflation ease in october, to lowest rate since january market. so, so got a boost off to china, relaxed some of its coven 19 measures in stock market recorded this best today. since april 2020 analysts say the u. s. federal reserve may be less aggressive when raising rates. now, the inflation has dropped. argentina's government has announced a deal with supermarkets and good supplies as it tries to tackle runaway inflation argentinians of held mass demonstrations over soaring cost of living. businesses

have now agreed to regulate prices of many basic goods. that's as forecasts suggest, inflation reach 100 percent. this year but un civils, his chair of the political economy department had been averted that nothing now the hand of ours on him into he joins us live from one us are, is good to have you with us hara firstly, why is inflation such a huge problem in argentina, why is this happened? well, there inflation has been a problem since probably around 202018 and it's been on the rise soon. during the market a administration which was a previous governments, it essentially doubles. it's probably about 20 or 25 percent to more than 50 percent. and it is currently running ads. well, ship timber, last year to this year, it's 83 percent. and as, as a presenter said it's,

it's expected to be around 100 percent this year. so one of the reasons behind that, an interesting factor is also that workers, salaries or incomes on average are running about 5 percent low inflation. which means that the foremost sector workers are way below inflation, which also explains the rise in poverty. and in the just in other words, hunger over recently redone. there are many reasons behind that. i would highlight 3 reasons. one is a highly concentrated basic, highly concentrated and mostly for food production or basic food stuff. production system. there's a few corporations far and that price is not based

on local costs, but based on international prices. so with arise, national prices, dear to all, for example, pay increase their prices here even if there's no dramatic reason for that to be the case. a 2nd is highly concentrated food distribution system supermarket chains, for example, in the metropolitan area that has roughly a 3rd of the country's population. 80 percent of food distribution is in the hands all 4 or 5 supermarket chain. so they can also set prices and the supermarket chains are. busy also significant, significant percentage of them are color and so they also set their prices

expecting returns profits in dollars. ok, so forgive me for interrupting to give me this plan that's been put in by the government then you can actually work in practical terms. well, home is the agreement of roughly more than $100.00 of the corporation and businesses to essentially freeze their prices for 4 months for $120.00 day. so it's expected that it's expected to work. busy will work or not remains to be seen. i also think that in, for just the practical business done or having 100 percent inflation. busy the economy is very bad for business as well. it's very

hard to make or call to predict what prices are going to be, invest months, et cetera. so i think it's to the benefit of. busy all of the parts to begin to attack inflation. this is one reason why there's some hope to believe that this would work. now will it work in the long term? that's a whole different ballgame. busy as i said with such a highly concentrated sector and with a lot of government policies to attack this problem from the roots it's, it's bound to crop eventually in the future. ready again, okay, i mean, give me some might say that the country is constrained economically by i m f conditions. is that a reasonable point? that's all yeah,

that was the 3rd sort of inflationary pressure agreement. historically, always, without any exceptions, being inflationary or what are some of the of the nation or repression relative to the agreement. whether it's very high interest rate, interest rates are costs to businesses, which they obviously strong switch prices. and then the subsidies to subsidies to specifically to energy, electricity, gas, water, et cetera. these are also costs to businesses and logistics costs. ready transportation and so all of that results in higher cost to businesses, which are also transfer pricing. so the i m f agreement is indeed manager impediments to carving inflation. and the agreement is in agreement that will be in place for many years given the loan that market

a president and know that the. ringback issue to market the pre or just ministration sergeant gene is going to be subject to that for a long time. so yes, that is indeed another problem for inflation dinard and trina. ok, i suppose we very much appreciate your time. thank you very much. you're very welcome. and the family of a child's, a british egyptian activist, have requested a presidential pardon, based on his deteriorating health. when the father has been on hunger strike for 7 months and stopped drinking water on sunday. a family is disputing, a public prosecutor's report that he's in good health. his lawyer says he got permission to visit his kinds, but has been denied access, has been in jail for months with no charges. the vatican is launching an investigation into a french cardinal who's admitted to abusing a 14 year old girl,

it's all part of trying to deliver a carbon neutral tournament when i gotcha, raska has more. it's early morning in cattle, but the work world cup, turf and tree nursery is reaching fever pitch. there's grass to be cut and watered and tough to be delivered to the stadiums. what we did here were just like a grab a piece of land from the desert and were converted to this beautiful, a land full of for trees and the grass. got those breakfast for the girls by the way, because the girls need sun, her needs or water needs for sizes and we can arrange all of this here. the turf is cut into long lengths. first is then carefully rolled up on to a tractor wrapped in mesh. and finally, the precious bundles of place carefully on the back of a truck to be moved to the stadium. the t me have the process so well rehearsed. they said a record for the fastest turf laying of

a football pitch by completing it in just 6 hours and 4 to one minute. put just like the 1st middle east world cup. the grass here is unique. having to stand up to more boots and colder temperatures over a shorter period with matches held over $29.00 days in just 8 stadiums with our design, new design of the stadiums. it's more compact and higher. so we had the challenge that with this air conditioned the stadiums. so it's cooler than usual by generating a new, a kind of gus that can survive during the summer and the winter. and with extensive a schedule of games, we get an ot which species is gonna walk more for the walk up. it's not just tough that they're growing here at this nursery. there's also all of these trees. some of them have been saved from sites around cats are, while others have been donated by members of the community. this is the place that

we saved all the trees from all on the door. her. some of the threats are very old years. that's more than 50 years old, actually for in some area or some of these, we know even how much we bought it or how much the person who did it for us or how much he paid for. so i am one of the so the to one of their guys, he was a kid that is good. he donated like his gone for the 3 and he said like my grandfather, he bought it for tauriel in 1970 saw before me. this is like the legacy and the history of the of the the stadiums. an average mature tree absorbs $21.00 kilos of carbon dioxide a year. the equivalent of a 170 kilometer journey in a petro car. cat eyes planting more than 5000 of them. they'll absorb greenhouse gases and local pollution as they aim for carbon neutral event. as the saying goes, the grass and the country will be greener on the other side of the world cup. joanna has raska al jazeera doha.
