8:07 am
the jails of 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 mere, my 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, all sorties in dominican republic, car deporting detained haitian refugees, gang warfare, and political turmoil of turmoil have fueled an accident from the crisis stricken nation. in recent months, many haitians say they've built new lives across the border and are now being sent back home to raise a bow reports from the haitian border. oh, it's become an all too common seen haitian refugees detained in mid american republic. we met them in this military base in the house right at the border. they're being sent back to haiti, even those who say they've built
8:08 am
a new lives here at the minute. my husband works in a construction site and i was craig, went 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 forces you are telling a good most of his people were trying to enter the country. they get some of this women for telling me that they have homes here and that their children were born american republic. middle in the piet, he's 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 health care 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
8:09 am
say, they're alarmed about what they call a precedent lease. i, we know there's persecution of haitians in his country was accredited. 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 baez's. it's just massive and a scandal isn't 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 are when's hillier says his country spore and cannot allow every one in law is the only mechanism. the dominican republic has, 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 is facing its worst crisis in years.
8:10 am
human rights crusades, people are being discriminated against across the region. and they're asking the dominican republic, among other governments for empathy, for those white twain to escape hunger violence and have no place to go. no way i think there is, i will. i'll just see that the have on, on the haitian border canyon forces have arrived and democratic republic of congo to help in the battle against an armed group. while the $900.00 troops have been deployed to go more as part of an east african regional force, connelly's military is continuing to lose ground to m $23.00. a fight as a widely understood to be backed by rwanda. although kigali denies the allegations least african leave the do to meet and on monday and i really be for to, for the next stage of peace talk to try to end the fighting. thousands of civilians continued to be caught in the violence of malcolm web reports from goma. the riga, curious as she ran for her life when her village was bombed,
8:11 am
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, mac, his andy, his wife, and her 6 grandchildren. what could 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 their mother died as while at the same time. this is mike of andy, 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 of our living in camps on the outskirts have 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
8:12 am
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. don. 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. but if we are just caused to be slower at every day, corners armies been struggling to fight them. 23 people here have been wondering
8:13 am
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 all time low. these como as escorted by congress, the soldiers after an angry crowd talk to you in vehicles 2 weeks ago. meanwhile, the conflicts getting worse. peace talks between east african leaders haven't helped the g to continue next week. for marie is too late anyway. 8 people from 2 generations of our family. i've gone for malcolm web out to 0 coma, democratic republic of congo. oh, stella had hair on al jazeera,
8:14 am
donald trump's running over the white house again, why he could face a bigger challenge this time around? ah, the middle east and africa, this is your weather update. let's go. we'll begin this one in the middle east for we've got some activity 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 slump south in the coming days. so here's a closer look on thursday, cooler air also. so q 8 at 25 degrees and i think this band of rain or make its way here in doha. so we take a look at the extended forecast. there's a chance of it anyway on thursday, the 33 degrees, and then your mix of sun in cloud on saturday with the high up 31. okay, so that action that we have over western iran also given us some sell round the
8:15 am
mountains in ted on. but through the coming days it will continue to chug further toward the east. and we could see some snow in northern pakistan cape cape province, for example, over the next few days after turkey a few showers for is stumble, but 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 and 24 hours. and certainly that is where most of the action is just to the west of late victoria. now for south africa, it's really along the coastline. could see some showers and looks like a wash out of a day in antenna to revo on thursday. susan ah, generation football hosts all the french captain. teresa. you never going to keep chasing, waiting, waiting, waiting for them to open conversation. there are very people that they can about the child abuse. as you have done, i am
8:16 am
a human being and i think we need to help each other and also show cases the incredible story of the football this flood afghan has done to escape tele generation football episode, won m l g 0 lou . ah, hello again. you're watching out, is there a his reminder of our top stories of this? our russia has been criticized to un security council meeting after a missile killed 2 people in poland, nato and polish authorities says likely the projectile was fired as part of ukrainian air defenses. south korea says it's northern neva has filed a ballistic missile of the east coast of the peninsula. it comes ours often north
8:17 am
griff threatened a fierce military response to us activity in the region. and men, most military has freed $6000.00 prisoners, including for foreigners as part of an annual amnesty to mark national day. us as an iranian made drone hit, the liberian flag oil tanker off the coast of oman. a pacific there called was struck by an armed drone on tuesday night. no group has a special responsibility for the attack. the company said the vessels sustained mine a damage to the hull. republicans have 1218 seats in the us house of representatives that gives them just enough to control the chamber with 6 other seats still being counted more than a week after the midterm elections were held. democrats have $211.00 seats so far. you as president joe biden has congratulates the republicans and promised to work with them at the when could get the conservative leverage to block biden's agenda. like hannah has more from washington. they will have control of the house now that
8:18 am
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 slow march. and 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 that power to block what the republican party as a whole wants to do within the house. now kevin mccarthy today was voted in as lead
8:19 am
off 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 said 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 republican. while the us justice department will proceed with criminal investigations into donald trump, despite his bid to run for president again in 2024. trump is being investigated for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results for keeping classified government documents and his florida state. on tuesday he announced that he will think the republican party nomination for the next presidential election. well, as donald trump is going to win the republican nomination for president in 2024, it appears he'll have to do it without
8:20 am
a powerful ally. need his high kid with maddox has reportedly withdrawn his support for the full me, you as president and as good as on day reports from new york. several maddox and 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,
8:21 am
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 appeared 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 backed 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 murdock papers. it seems that for news corp,
8:22 am
donald trump is yesterday's man. and that rupert murdoch has moved on. henry olson is a senior fellow at the ethics and public policy center. he says donald trump has lost his appeal amongst republican voters. one of the problems with trump is that we heard it all before. that when trump ran in 2016, he was not only a fresh fold 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 get 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
8:23 am
able to accept. there's a lot of republicans who wanna move on from him. there's a lot of republicans who door him. and then in the middle, are those people who could be happy with him as the nominee, but they would be equally happy with somebody else. and that's why rhonda sam just needs trump in many recent holes. 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 trunk. if de santis runs, it will be a very close race. a man convicted of killing 6 people when he drove his vehicle into a christmas market in the usa to wisconsin has been given 6 consecutive life sentences . thou, brooks was found guilty last month on all $76.00 counts for the attack. nearly one
