even if it was fired by ukraine. this tragedy would never have happened, but per rushes needless invasion of ukraine. ah, hello there, norah kyle, this is al jazeera alive from dough, also coming up to republicans when the us house of representatives with a narrow margin present. joe biden has pledged to work with them or in a cam can democratic republic of congo. this him to thousands of people fools to flee violence and claims of cash cheering the organizes of cattle at 2022. but jack to accusations that were fake football funds at the world cock. ah, he was to, to, the united nations says russia is ultimately responsible for

a missile strike that killed 2 people in poland, nato, and poland said the missile was most likely fired as part of ukrainian at defenses of the issue overshadowed a meeting of the security council that was supposed to focus on the humanitarian situation in ukraine. while we still don't know all the facts, we do know, one thing. this tragedy would never have happened, but for russia's needless invasion of ukraine and its recent missile assaults, against ukraine's civilian infrastructure. the un charter is clear. ukraine has every right to defend itself against this barrage defend its sovereignty, defend his territorial integrity. what the mockery of peace efforts that terrorists . i steal at the table on an equal footing with 14 members,

while the skewed comes to one day after the grievance attack on ukraine's critical infrastructure. while temperatures and ukraine start dropping below freezing the stair is aim to deprive cranes of tricity water and hitting more than 90 me styles, targeted energy facilities and all the civilian infrastructure in at least 11 region. so ukraine, kristen salumi has more from the un headquarters in new york. while top of every one's mind was the missile that landed in poland and many members of the security council use the opportunity to express their condolences to poll and for the deaths of 2 people there. ah, they, i express concern about the escalation of the conflict and the escalation of the humanitarian situation as a result. and they got

a briefing from the under secretary general of the united nations. rosemary decarlo, who pointed out that now 40 percent of ukraine's electric capacity had been damaged . she said that keith was only experiencing about 12 hours of electricity a day and made the point that targeting civilian infrastructure in a conflict is illegal under international law. a point that was brought up by many of the speakers there. but western countries and nato align countries in particular use the opportunity to call out russia and blame russia for specifically the death of the 2 people in poland. they said that regardless of who fired the missile, it wouldn't have been fired if russia had not invaded ukraine. in the 1st place, and we heard russia pushed back against that notion in their remarks in the council was there we go. league unless we have long ago stopped being surprised by your

attempts in any circumstance, in spite of fact, or common sense to blame russia for everything and saw today in spite of clear evidence of ukrainian polish provocation, many representatives of rest and countries of state to be fed that even of the messiah for launch, by crane. it is still russia who was to blame for destroying critical infrastructure. and he is now in south greer. as pyongyang has find a ballistic missile of the east coast. the launch comes hours off to north korea's foreign minister, threatened a fierce at military response to us activity in the region. washington has pledged to increase its security commitments on the peninsula. man mars military has freed $6000.00 prisoners, including full foreigners as part of an annual amnesty to mark national day. and attorney chang has more from bangkok, the number itself is significant and the occurs. and usually the large prisoner amnesty occurs or the meal must new year festival, the water festival,

which is in the spring. this is taking place on national day. there are 6000 prisoners being released today, including 712 political prisoners. and that's a significant increase for in previous years. and as you mentioned for foreigners including vicky berman or the former british ambassadors of myanmar shown to know who was an economic advisor to answer and suit she inter could barter, who was a japanese filmmaker arrested? a couple of months ago, and he was facing up to 10 years in jail. we don't know when they're going to be released. exactly, but this news has been confirmed by the military spokesman in napa door. so it looks like it'll happen. they will be released and then reported immediately, i think people in museum, i have been expecting this for a couple of weeks. they think that mir mars military leaders are trying to empty the jails or political prisoners because they want to be able to say that the elections they're going to hold next year will be free and fair is probably a combination of both miramar has so far resisted all attempts that international

pressure to kind of ease the situation that's developed since the coo. this may be a small concession, but they are very clearly focused on those elections. next year canyon forces i have arrived in democratic republic of congo to help in the battle against an armed group. while the 900 troops have been deployed to gamer, as part of an east african regional force, english military has continued to lose ground to m 23. the fight is a widely understood to be backed by rwanda, although kigali denies the allegations. well, east africa leaders are due to meet on monday in nairobi for the next stage of peace talks to try to end the fighting. thousands of civilians court continued to be caught in the violence. as malcolm web reports from goma, marie guru says she ran for her life. when her village was bombed, the rest of her family didn't make it. now she cooks in this churchyard and sleeps

in the church at night. a neighbor found her here and told her what happened to her son machiavelli, his wife and her 6 grandchildren. well got to be got in a car with other people so they could leave quickly. then the car was hit by a bomb. his legs were blown off and he died. all the children were killed and the mother died as while at the same time. this is mac of n d, before it happened. the pictures taken of him after a too upsetting for us to show where each one of tens of thousands of people who fled recent advances by the m $23.00 rebel group, widely understood to be backed by neighboring rwanda. well, everyone that denies it most and are living in camps on the outskirts of gamer, in democratic republic of congo. this football stadium is now home for hundreds of people. some of the older people here have run away from london back rebellion 2 or 3, or even 4 times before. so this time,

some people here are asking why is getting so much less attention and why they're not getting much help. john? john chloe choir tells people, he's tough, but don't be discouraged. these things will end one day. he's a community leader for this area. he blames the u. s. u k, and france for supporting rwanda and uganda. over the decades, their forces of waged was here. let good good. the war in ukraine just started in february this year that international community mobilized for ukrainians because they don't want to see them suffering. but we have been suffering for more than 30 years. and the international community is behaving as if it's just animals that are suffering. if we are just cause to be slower at every day kong, his armies been struggling to fight him. 23 people here have been wondering why the government says the u. n. is stopping it from buying the arms. it needs to defend

itself from rwanda, there were no un restrictions on heavy weapons like tanks. only in notification requirement for small arms. 9 years ago, un troops from southern africa helped congo to c t. m 23. this time relations with the peacekeepers, there was an old time low. this como is escorted by congress. the soldiers after an angry crowd talks to you n vehicles 2 weeks ago. meanwhile, the conflicts getting worse. peace talks between east african leaders haven't helped the g to continue next week. to marie, it's too late. anyway. 8 people from 2 generations of our family are gone for malcolm web out to 0. go ma, democratic republic of congo. authority, the dominican republic of sending detained haitian refugees back to their country. guy warfare and political thomas have filled an exodus from neighboring haiti in

recent months. many refugees say they've built new lives across the border and now facing deportation toward the bow report it's become an old to common seen haitian refugees detained in the dominican republic. we met them in this military base in the one right at the border. though being sent back to haiti, even those who say they've built in new lives here at the minute, my husband works in a construction site and i was calling and home when the police arrived. they wouldn't let me get my babies, clothes, i left all my money at home and i have nothing here through the course. if you're telling a good, most of his people were to think trying to enter the country. they get some of his women for telling me that they have holes here and that their children were born american republic, middle and the piano with her 8 year old son. she shows us his birth certificate that proves he was born in the dominican republic. i. my son has a birth certificate he was born here,

they cannot send him back to haiti. the u. n. has called on the dominican republic to hold the quotations. haiti is in the midst of a political crisis that has gangs controlling large parts of the country. thousands are fleeing, lack of available healthcare services in haiti have forced pregnant women to cross the border to deliver their children. but many are not allowed inside dominican hospitals and some have had their children on the street. human rights activists say they're alarmed about what they call a precedent lease. are we now, there's persecution of haitians in his country with our programs. we're here to push. there are massive deportations and the cases are not individual. there is no due process. there's children with papers, others with just visas. it's just massive and a scandal. so even pregnant women being sent back to haiti and the law says that shouldn't be done. the dominican republic is building a wall to protect its borders from smugglers, but also illegal migrants. it's all over. so what gwen's hillier says, his country's poor and cannot allow every one in lowly, the only mechanism,

the dominican republic cause is to show that it will not tolerate migrant irregularity of the deportations. and this is what we are doing. this has nothing to do with ethnical reasons or racism, but under the problem, if the state stops all the potations, we do not know what could happen here. haiti's faith, it's worse. crisis in years. human rights group said people are being discriminated against across the region. and they're asking the dominican republic, among other governments for empathy, for those who are twain to escape hunger violence and have no place to go. that is, i will, i'll just eat the hub on, on the haitian border till a had hair on out. is there a why high energy. busy bills and soaring, inflation in the u. k, is hitting those with disabilities, the hardest. ah,

anticipation is rising. and so with the atmosphere, you read the width of my cattle ways, the middle east in africa, this is your weather update. let's go, we'll begin this one in the middle east for we've got some activity in northern iraq pushing into western iran. some showers there. that is also finding its way into kuwait, and that line of showers will continue to swamp south in the coming days. so here's a closer look on thursday, cooler air also. so q weight at 25 degrees and i think this band of rain will make its way here in the house. we take a look at the extended forecast. there's a chance of it any way on thursday. 33 degrees and then your mix of sun in cloud on saturday with a high of 31. okay, so that action that we have over western iran also given us and so round the mountains intake on. but through the coming days, that will continue to shut further toward the east and we could see some snow in northern pakistan, k p. k. profits, for example, over the next few days after turkey

a few showers for is some barbara. i think the bulk of the action will be over the black sea and off to africa we go for western uganda picked up about a months worth of rain in 24 hours. and certainly that is where most of the action is just to the west of lake victoria. now for south africa, it's really along the coastline, could see some shower. it looks like a wash out of the day, and ants 100 a repo on thursday. susan de, with sponsored by cattle and i was jumping to the street when no topic is off the table. i don't think that anybody should be born to privilege to them for dinner. the day we are the subjects of the door and family left. one person's opinion, but what's yours? amplify your voice. the judicial system in mexico is incredibly weak and it is not just corruption clear, a global audience becomes a global community. the scariest part of this moment in my country is this toys for a more weapon. the st. oh,

now j 0 ah ah, meghan, you're watching out, is there a reminder of our top stories? there's our russia has been cris size at a un security council meeting after a miss are killed. 2 people in poland, nato and polish authorities say it's likely the weapon was fired as part of ukrainian air defenses. south korea's as pyongyang as find a ballistic missile towards us. eastern waters launch comes ours. after north chris foreign minister threatened a fearsome military response to us activity in the region. washington has pledged to increase its securities commitments on the peninsula. and mammals military has freed $6000.00 prisoners,

including for foreigners as part of an annual amnesty to mark national day. republicans have 1218 seats in the house of representatives. this gives them just enough to control the chamber with 6 other seats still being counted more than a week after midterm elections were held. democrats have $211.00 seats so far. it was present. joe biden has congratulate the republicans and promised to work with them, but the wind could good could give the conservative leverage to block biden's agenda . i cannot, has more from washington they will have control of the house now that we know that they've got that 20800 seats giving them the majority. but all indications are, is that it's going to be the slim stuff margins. if the democrats win another 5 or 6, or even 6 seats, that will bring them to $217.00, the march will be one, but anywhere between $1.00 and $8.00 is a very slim margin. the reason for this is that the republican party is not

a uniform house. there are many elements of it, particularly the extreme right wing, of which there are a large number who may not go aboard with the the, the agenda of the majority of the republicans in the house. they are then able to block any such agenda. so even though the numbers are small relative to the number of the regular republican, so to speak, they would still have the power to block what the republican party as a whole wants to do within the house. now kevin mccarthy today was voted in as leader of the republicans in the house, but he still has to get confirmed on january the 3rd when he will need to get at least 218 votes. now the problem with this is that today he, republicans voted against him. so if that was happening on january, the 3rd, he would not be speaker of the house. so all of these elements are there, all of these problems ahead for the republicans. my mother. yes, it does,

justice department will proceed with criminal probes against donald trump. despite his bid to run for president again in 2024 trumpets being investigated for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results and keeping cast 5 government documents at his estate. on tuesday, he announced that he will seek the republican party nomination for the next presidential elections. let donald trump is going to win the republican nomination for president in 2024, and appeared they'll have to do it without a powerful ally. media tycoon, rupert murdoch has reportedly withdrawn, has support for the for me, you as president and as gamblers on their reports from new york, several murdock own publications, are starting to reflect that. i'm outside the headquarters of fox news here in new york city. it's also home to news corporation, the parent company owned by billionaire media mogul. rupert murdoch with donald trump announcing his intention to run for the presidency again in 2024. you might

think that murdock own conservative media would once again be backing trumps. bid, but this time, unlike 2016, they're not just take a look at today's new york post, a newspaper also owned by murdock. the front page almost completely ignores trump. a very clear snub at the bottom of the page saying florida man makes an announcement, not even referring to him by name. last week, another post front cover was even more scathing calling the former president, trump. d dumpty and blaming him for the republican party's disappointing results in the mid term elections. the murdock own wall street journal has been equally critical. this editorial last week, calling trump the republican party's biggest loser. during tuesday nights, announcement fox news even cut out of the speech. when trump appear to be rambling

. jesse james now, eric trump got more subpoena. now we're going to go back to former president tramps when news warrants travel, it all comes after trump back candidates had a terrible night in the mid terms, losing to their democratic rivals in many key states. this is all a far cry from the days of trumps presidency when he could rely on strong support from fox news and the murdoch papers. it seems that for news corp, donald trump is yesterday's man. and that rupert murdoch has moved on to henry elson as the senior fellow at the ethics and public policy center. he said donald trump has lost his appeal amongst republican vices. one of the problems with trump is it. we've heard it all before. it went from random 2016. he was not only a fresh bolt of energy. he had a fresh set of ideas that had either been dismissed or completely overlooked. last

night speech was something that any person running for the republican party nomination would have been able to give, talking about priorities, talking about solutions. he's no longer the new kid on the block. if trump wants to regain his mojo, i think he needs to have something besides looking at the past as the reason why people should look for him. because the question is about the future, there are younger, more vibrant, more acceptable candidates within the republican party. that people will easily be able to accept. there's a lot of republicans who want to move on from him. there's a lot of republicans who bore him and then in the middle, are those people who would be happy with him as the nominee, but they would be equally happy with somebody else. and that's why rhonda santos needs trump in many recent polls. and why he trails only narrowly in the ones that he doesn't lead. rhonda santas is very credible to trump loaders as somebody who stands up to the media as somebody who fights for conservative beliefs. he's almost

30 years younger than trump, and he's also somebody who has shown a record of attracting the sort of independent voter that is alienated from trump. if the santas runs, it'll be a very close race. hundreds of people in paris have paid their respect to a 12 year old girl who was murdered last month. luna's family held a silent march. the tribute was delayed for weeks after her death became political, the main suspect as algerian and that has led to anti immigrant sentiment. there was some new report that also missing off. she failed to return from school. i thought it was later found mutilated and stuffed into a plastic box. last good news is from the old living wearisome without lawler and making sense of the incomprehensible is the situation in which we find ourselves after the psychological snarling struck us in october, 14 or when our hopes of finding lola disappeared. as in the aftermath of her

synonymy, everything that we had built was destroyed. how to live in the present, had all imagined ourselves in a future that she, with her brother's, it, is no longer there. it will take a long time to rebuild with questions the what ifs. the wise, the house that a likely to go on answered on, don't go into this invasion race and the united kingdom have hit a 41 that year high. the increase has been blamed on surging energy bills on food prices. ok, finance minister is due to make a statement about spending plans on thursday. jeremy hunter's warning of tax rises and budget cuts, and those with disabilities are expecting to be particularly hard hit. as emma hayward reports, george george needs oxygen to help him breathe at night. his mom jemma and step dad, sean support him in every way they can. they've seen their electricity bills, treble in recent months, and have no web cutting costs when it comes to life saving equipment. our major

concern is like the, the energy bills because if you know electricity has gone up so much and we have quite a bit of equipment within and home for him. so that is always a way for may. and it's always like every move he think, how you can a met may ken's me. you know, when he caught back, he caught back. he caught by, you know, we both work full time electricity obviously for it is a lifeline. a is, you know, it is, george is lifeline. know me. that is oxygen in the evening. in a he going to become very is going to put really poorly. gemma husband helped by the family font and national charity. it's now providing assistance to thousands more families in the u. k than it used to, and says conditions for families with disabled or seriously ill children are deteriorating. jemerson, georgia is story is far from unique energy prices have been rising, hey, for month,

an inflation is more than 40 year high. and it is the most vulnerable in british society, hoping hard if take and there are worries that as the government tries to balance its books, cuts could be made to vital services. shawnee dander is an entrepreneur and a leading disability specialist pre pandemic. queen knew that disabled people face unavoidable, extra cost of nearly $700.00 us dollars per month. this is after we've paid for our housing costs. would that be a mortgage or you'll rent, you know, it's a lot of money for people to have to find. so now we're in this post pandemic world and in a constantly in crisis, i will put money on the fact that that cost now has, has really gone a lot higher. we need the government to really stick to the commitments that they made to upright benefits in line with inflation. and to give us more cost of living, a payment support, a u. k. government spokesperson told us financial help is being made available. and

in a statement said, we know disabled people face additional costs, and this government is taking decisive action to protect the most vulnerable in our society. the government does space top choices in the coming months. and so to the families who will continue to care whatever the cost, emma hayward al jazeera in london, it almost has told remaining twitter staff that if they aren't ready to go hard caught, they should leave the company. the new twitter seo is making employees sign a pledge to work long hours at high intensity and build a break through twitter $2.00, they have until thursday to make the commitments or take 3 months severance pay. ah, and the organizers of castle trends trends to have rejected accusations they off

there are fake paid football fans at the world. cup is out of videos like this serve indian ex pats cheering on several teams. went viral on social media and a statement. the supreme committee described the allegations as disappointing and unsurprising. it went on to say that casso and the rest of the world is comprised of a diverse range of football fans, many of whom sher emotional connections with multiple nations, like sierra bryan has more from one fan football match in the capital. a i'm here at the go, hot or hot and with local fan lee and the 3 day competition that good football fans the opportunity for don, the jersey of the country. they support not just the countries that they were born in or a citizen from right now, the semi finals are underway with god, cut her germany. and on the other page there is argentina,

belgium you know, with the player on the pitch over the past few days. have been from several countries saying quarter ago when brazil, but most of them from india. so it's been like this that have gone at some criticism of cutter, that it is paying a fans and then lead up to the world cup of rejected the allegations as a disappointing thing that just traditions don't look the same as in europe or south america. it doesn't mean that the passion for the game is any little fainter, with people from india make up a quarter of population. and it is a sport loving nation for more on the aisle joined by a and indian was born and raised here.

why did a indian guy who will thirdly into football, he said the pockets of the country football definitely is a huge team, has a massive following. and even like the world cup of the celebrated like for school football is almost like a religion and many, many parts of india which will be supporting stadium. i like to talk of the underdogs. and normally, once i'm doing, but they always come about shocking, you know, i low missy am forwarding out to do now. but my was up or delivery. got that also because of my home, 2nd home. after a nail biting final between belgium and cutter, the team of fans representing the host country came out on top to the golf nation is 50th and world rankings. so it is only.
