b as in bob boy, mozambique st. some heavy burst upright, and some rudy wet weather for a time because at east side of south africa fuqua's willing natal that will pop as it moves into mary's and big with bright disguise coming in behind. ah frank assessments, if the united states that you're running a good program was there to build a nuclear weapon they would assign to view by informed opinions. i believe that armina agenda should have bilateral negotiations. we've been holding that for many time. critical debate is the commonwealth now still something that king charles will take on in depth analysis of the data global headlines inside story on al jazeera ah,

defying predictions made ahead of the u. s. midterm elections, president job biden's party holds on to control of the senate. ah, hello, i'm adrian finnegan. this is al jazeera alive from dough, also coming up as one of the solid in asia, wraps up another's about to begin. well, leaders of sets of make their way to indonesia for the g. 20 love between the air raid sirens. we meet couples starting a new life together during the ukraine war and eyes on the prize. how formal, wo champions, italy making that presence felt despite that football as failing to qualify for consol 2022

he was president joe biden's democratic party as to fight predictions and retained power in the senate. it was confirmed after the democratic incumbent in nevada, such as a catherine cortez. musto, narrowly defeated, her republican challenge up adam lock salt was endorsed by former president donald trump. at us. mike, hannah reports not from washington. the results cast doubt on trump's influence over the party. ah, the democrats seize control of the senate. catherine cortez musto, winston nevada, giving the democratic party 50 seats, and with the casting boats at the vice president. a majority in the chamber and republican adam lex, that becomes yet another trump supported candidate to lose. here the democratic party, one in the state of arizona, where former astronaut mark kelley defeated republican blake masters. i'm not

surprised by the turner and i'm incredibly, please. i think it's a reflection of quality. we're killers in the they're all running on the same program and anybody who wouldn't run on what we do or all stay sticky with. so i feel good. i'm looking forward to a couple years and a clear loser in the mid term elections. his former president, donald trump, whose endorsement of so many losing candidates, will call into question his outsized influence in the republican party. it may be, i read another of his choices. herschel walker is likely to pace an uphill battle in a runoff election in georgia. next month. the counting of votes is continuing in the house of representatives. elections. republicans still hold a slight lead, but the democrats have closed the gap with some surprising winds in the past 24 hours. but even if republicans do take control of the house,

it will be by the slimmest of margins, and with control of the senate. president biden will still have a lot of leeway to press forward with his legislative agenda. ah, above all these midterm elections have cemented his stature as a leader, which in turn will give him a greater degree of control over his party. mike hannah, out his era washington. so this is how the senate victory looks for the democrats. you've kept 50 seats. the republicans are at $49.00. the swing state of georgia, however, will had to run off election in december. but even if the republicans went there and the senators split evenly, the democratic vice president carmella harris can cast her tie, breaking vote at spring and russ feingold. he's a prudent political risk analyst and former asia chairman of republicans abroad. he joins us now live from taipei good to have you with us. again, ross orders, all of this mean for president biden. and his ability to get legislation through

congress in the coming to years. oh, very limited ability to legislate. the notion in hyper pharmacy and environment that there's the legislation that the house republicans, assuming they do, in fact a majority and the senate democrats would agree on that. that's watering on parcel that much be on a budget. even a budget is going to be extremely contentious. we think back to the past 2 years, when the democrats, well, but a pastor and legislation using what's called the reconciliation process, which doesn't require the normal 60 both status. that bill needs to get through the senate and only required a majority said it is 50 plus the vice president. that legislation also had a democrat house to, to work with the democrats. janet that's not going to be the case now. so again, legislation will be extremely limited and also keep in mind that the house

majority of republican majority is going to have a very conservative republicans. but then they're going to be a small group that are going to be even more conservative than most conservatives and a half. so even among the republicans, it will be very difficult to have a consensus on that. as legislation, let alone reach a consensus, which the senate democrats, the predicted redway for the republicans failed to happen. what does all of this mean for the g o p? and in particular, donald trump, i think we're going to see to, to i kinda pathways going forward. no one which for to hear a lot about in the coming days. we've already heard that over the past few days is to say that following president, trump is the wrong way. then the other one is going to be that know we have to stick to the more conservative america. first, make a make america great message at 1st. our president trump elected with a republican majority in the house and senate back in 2016. so that battle is going

to play out among republicans in congress as well as at the state level. people who worked in the prize in president trump's administration on president trump, himself, obviously he's the key figure here whether or not he plans to run again. but we're definitely to see this disagreement among republicans, whether or not we should stick with the current message or we should try something different. good talk to ross many thanks to you for being with us. russ feingold, them in taipei. so the democrats have kept control of the senate, but it's still a toss up in the house of representatives with republicans, a leading with 211 seats. that's just 7 short of the 218 needed for majority. democrats, however, are expecting more winds in western states like california. as counting continues, adolfo franko is a republican party strategist. he says, the results reveal the deep political divisions in the united states. now is the time for an autopsy, which we will conduct. first of all,

the country is extremely divided. i don't think the republicans were routed all of these quite all of these races. you know, just nevada was called today a razor thin margins. what is clear is this. we're almost back to status quo. the republicans take the house, a little advantage for republicans, but we're back to the status quo, which means the country has divided really 5050. now why democrats outperformed and they did have to recognize that is largely, i think, for 2 reasons. first, abortion played a much bigger role than we anticipated in motivating people over a kitchen table or inflation issues. and the 2nd thing is only 7 percent of the electorate is now independent or years ago was 12 percent. so people are in their tribes and that 70 percent heavily in favor of democrats, largely on social issues. and i think there will be a very hot, they contested fight for the nomination. and it will be

a question whether trump loyalist, who love ron to santas will abandon president trump and, and vote for a pro trump type candidate. so i think it will be a very divisive. i'm almost certain to president president. trump will announce next week that he was you seeking that the presidential nomination, and we'll wait and see if these other contenders decide to join in the mop up in the southern ukrainian city of cassandra's underway. 2 days after the retreats of russian forces. it's one of the most significant victories for ukrainian troops since the beginning of the invasion. notice here is a big report. so from creepy v. ah, for the 1st time since march, the 2nd, the residence of carson woke up to sites and sands of a city restored to life. this is full body square in the center. the world means

freedom. and with it comes joy and laughter. it's not peacetime as such, but 1st, long as possible. don't pretend it is. the russian army has merely retreated to the east side of the guinea pro river easily in artillery range. as they withdrew the russians destroyed critical infrastructure. the t. v. tower bridges over the disney pro, including this one the, the cut over them, causing significant damage of parts of the dam. wall and satellite imagery shows a damage and ton of sky bridge. the main crossing from west to east russia announced that it had completed an orderly withdrawal on friday morning. but the evidence suggests it was anything, but some units were forced to flee across a temporary pontoons under heavy ukrainian fire. there were reports of drawings. another unit said you have been ordered to dress in civilian clothes and skate by any means available. many russian dead and wounded are said to have been left behind, sullen lexi, which of salem oberon,

of some of the defense forces have established control over more than 60 settlements in care. so region, the police have started stabilization measures everywhere in liberated territory. our expert technicians have low to work to you. almost 2000 explodes, you items have already been removed. for russia, it was the latest in the series of battlefield defeats and all the more humiliating coming just 6 weeks after her son was formerly annexed by moscow. for now, ukraine has rejected the idea of negotiations. mister rotener, they want to negotiate, but they have written russia here forever. they want to go shared with us and keep bumping the infrastructure. they want to cease fire, but they're not talking about the withdrawal of their forces from the entire territory of ukraine because they need an operational pause. not peace of the city that resisted the occupation when it began almost 9 months ago,

until that resistance proved futile. that was so recently proclaimed russian for ever by vladimir putin has proven itself in scenes of fauria that won't and any time soon to be ukrainians to it's called. the question now is whether ukrainian for replicating this victory elsewhere in the country. fighting in the east is particularly intense, but with the return of the region capital to ukrainian hands and the road boost that comes with it. they believe they can win this war. i said vague, i'll just 0 quivery. so gay mark off is a former advice as a russia president flooding they have put in. he says that losing cast on is a blow for russia, but it could be ukraine's last big victory. it's really embarrassed for russia. we used to believe that russia, i'm, is 2nd, i me is a world after united states probably by probably and equals to united states,

so that it's depressive for that population in presser, for, i mean, but we still believe that is probably the last real media. if you could, or you could, and yet, i mean that he's in the u. k. has taught might be the zation needed to remember is ation or the spring and the results. you can, you can a 5 time less than the russian by population. but you're bringing, i mean, to why is bigger than the rational numbers, but now it is, your will be way for you. okay. and i mean, because the city content, a 1000 mobilized reference will come to russian. i mean skeptic got get so it is really good example or the fact that rush i liberal state and that i keep resume as a pressure still to come on al jazeera road map. the piece, ethiopia, is military and to grow rebels agree to allowing humanitarian aid and help or
