1:00 pm
ah, with with mm oh ah, this is al jazeera ah,
1:01 pm
you're watching the news our live from a headquarters. he's all for i'm dead. he and abigail are coming up in the next 60 minutes. the u. s. and its allies condemned north korea after it fires another intercontinental ballistic missile into the waters near japan. funerals are held for the victims of the building fire in gaza at least 21 people were killed at a refugee camp. the 1st privately developed indian rock. it lifts off successfully as the country pushes to become a major space power offering lower costs under cloud reporting from the south of madagascar. o people's desperate search for water of the 5 relentless years of drought. and a world cup set back for senegal, losing their star player aside. your monet because of injury. ah,
1:02 pm
ah, welcome to the news. our north korea isn't at a meeting of asia pacific leaders in bangkok but its front and center. as the apex summit begins from gang is accused of firing a long range, ballistic missile capable of reaching the us mainland. the u. s. vice president couple of harris brought together allies to condemn the latest launch. this conduct by north korea most recently is a raise in violation of multiple un security resolution. stabilizes here in the region and unnecessarily raises pensions withdrawn. we can get these actions, and we again call north korea stopped further unlawful. the stabilizing act on behalf of the united states, i reaffirmed our iron clad commitment to our endo pacific alliances. while japan says the north korean intercontinental ballistic missile is capable of reaching the us mainland. it's also confirmed ammunition landed in its exclusive
1:03 pm
economic zone about 200 kilometers from an island in northern. hawkeye. jo, it's the latest and a series of launches by north korea tokyo, it says they've become more frequent. rub, mcbride has more from so it has been a very robust response from south korea. the government here issuing a statement saying that it possesses the capability to respond overwhelmingly to any provocation, i think, somewhat ominously that north korea should not misjudged this fact. now this is an administration which takes a much tougher line with no career, especially in recent month, seemingly quite prepared and willing to match any provocation or military action by the north with some sort of action of its own. as we see this tit for tat increase in the tension levels here. this follows a warning on thursday from north korea that it will take a much faster response to what it sees as a build up of us forces in this region. using the opportunity as though to drive
1:04 pm
the point home to fire off yet another short range, ballistic missile of friday's launch. the, this would be the 3rd icbm in continental ballistic missile 5 this year. these are much larger heavy missiles that, that north korea was testing with great frequency in 2017 very provocatively, that's been a several year break. but this year we've seen a resumption of the testing. now the interesting thing about this, the, this trajectory of this launch as with previous icbm, is that although it only travelled around a 1000 kilometers eastwood's just short of the northern japanese island pakenio, it had a very steep trajectory going up 6000 kilometers. and then coming down a very steep trajectory again another 6000 kilometer. so military analysts reckoned that if you took this and translated into a shallow trajectory, it could cover up to 15000 kilometers at the earth's surface. well,
1:05 pm
that puts the continental united states within range of let's bring in tony chang who's covering the apec summit for us and bang out. so we've heard from washington and sol, but what's been the reaction of other leaders to this launch? well i think there was a hope that this summer might be able to concentrate on economic masters. but early this morning, just after the summit opened here in bank of we heard the news from north korea and pretty quickly afterwards, the united states arrange the meeting with southridge, japan, australia, canada, and new zealand. where they issued those statements, as well as the statement from come, le harris, we also had from just intruder canada to the these tests were in contravention of un resolutions. australia's and the alba navy said that these, the unprecedented number of tests were a real threat. and he called the global condemnation of what north korea is doing.
1:06 pm
of course, the one man who could really make a difference to northridge, chinese presidents shooting thing is here as well. but if he was thinking anything about these missile tests, he certainly wasn't saying it publicly. so tony, there have been pro democracy protests and the lead up to the summit in bang call itself as the ty print, prime minister responded to those he hasn't responded at all. he's been tightly secured within the summit center. and the venue has been surrounded by a ring of security, which has been very tight. the tie authorities knew all along that the protest as who've been out on the streets over the last 3 years, protesting against what they say is an illegitimate government. they knew that they would see this is an opportunity to protest. there has been a protest going on for the last couple of days, relatively peacefully. but this morning, those protest is tried to march to the summit venue. the police blocked them and re
1:07 pm
pushed them back. they fired rubber bullets or 3 people go very seriously injured. and there were quite serious clashes when we got down there at the protest, as i think realised they were not going to be getting any further. there was an awful lot of security. the title is of drafted in $30000.00 reinforcements to the capital. but the next couple of days to make sure that nothing can happen. but i think it's also a sign of how sensitive the thai government is. and some observers here saying that they really missed an opportunity in trying to protect themselves from this. they've made this a very tightly choreographed affair. it's not the opportunity that it has been in the past for tie governments when hosting apec to kind of project themselves on to the world stage as we saw possibly with the g 20 and barley. i think in this instance the ties are going to be very keen to just ensure that the protest is don't break through. before least those world leaders can get away out of the
1:08 pm
summer ends on saturday. thank you so much. tony chang reporting from bank ha! funerals are getting under way right now. and garza for the $21.00 victims of a building fire. 7 of the dogs were children, gymnast. they had reports from the giovanni refugee camp where the fire broke out. what began as a family party, now describe as a national tragedy. flames tour through this home in the density populated chip ballier refugee can in no, i think ours is strip. neighbors say they could hear screaming, but the fire was so intense, they couldn't help those trapped inside. and a good nervous salon live upon either your animal marshal of them. i was sleeping in the living room that looks out to my neighbors. i was asleep with my 5 year old and i heard people screaming, so i woke up when i someone in b. one. our brothers in the civil defense arrived tried to into the apartment but
1:09 pm
couldn't. but they had no masks and no oxygen tanks, wallet and the people burned inside. and until that moment, we still didn't go even on one moment into the apartment. the dead are all believed to be of the upper radio family. they were gathering to celebrate a birthday and welcoming home their father who obtained a ph. d overseas. but now their home is just a rack of charged walls and black suits. the missouri either the, i need a bus, i be in the launch of monta fuel, on location, which acted as a fire hazard. gm's or firefighters quickly rushed to the scene and the civil defense opened an immediate vista geisha colon at work or defer la danny. several different steams for his great difficulty in containing the enormous file. i thought a large number of fire bring an officers and palestinian palace rushed to the sea and had to use a lot of equipment to put out the flames. and to prevent it from spreading to
1:10 pm
neighboring home scenarios. i will all women those who survive, the blaze has been rushed to local hospitals. israel maintains a blockade of garza but says it will help those in need of medical treatment. pounds senior president mahmoud abbas says the victims will be remembered with to day of national morning. gymnast, see, he al jazeera, gaza, went to mar head on the auto renew hour, including the british finance minister warranty. a tough 2 years has confirmed the country is in recession and be england world cup team hold a training session with some of the migrant workers and cut hard. ah. so britain finance minister has defended his budget plan, but worn. the u. k. may face challenging times during the next 2 years. jeremy han
1:11 pm
says it's $66000000000.00 plan will lower inflation and boost the economy. he announced the measures on thursday unveiling a series of tax raises. the u. k. government will also cut spending, but only after the next general election in 2025. let's discuss this with rory challenge. he's joining us from london outside the bank of england to talk about the fall out from this worry. and also what's been the reaction of the financial markets so for the market to be pretty relaxed, i think about what jeremy hunting out yesterday. there had been a lot of groundwork laid by the government side of the previous few weeks to prepare markets for what was coming, which is more than you could say for the many budget. jeremy hunts predecessor quasi quality just 6 weeks ago, which sent the pounds tumbling an interest rate soaring, and the bank of england behind me scrambling to try and pick up the pieces. now, that brought about the downfall of quasi quart, saying,
1:12 pm
and the prime minister lives trust this time their pre to that, that, that replacements are doing things more carefully. so over the previous weeks we've had talk of the grim decisions facing jeremy hunts. and what he was going to have to do, and so when it came to it, yes, there was a slight dip in the pounds. there was a slight dip in the markets box that could be down to the fact that jeremy hunt painted him a pretty dark picture of the u. k. is economy over the next couple of years? at least he said that were in recession already, though his fiscal plan, as he put it, would make that the session shallower than it would otherwise be the markets. i think for the most part of the moments or giving him the benefit of doubt. but there were always 3 audiences for jeremy hunts, autumn statements day with the markets. but then they're also fellow conservatives and the voters at large. and there are very different proposition at the moment. so what is the response been from the public and also from the conservative
1:13 pm
well, i've got a few papers here. these are all right wing papers from broad sheet to tabloid. the daily telegraph basically is a bit confused, calling this the rhetoric of george osborne, who is a former conservative chancellor with the policies of gordon brown, who of course was a former labor chance let. then prime minister, you have the day the mail which says tories, so the strive is now if you're not fluent in british tabloid speak, that basically means the conservatives are hitting the middle classes. and there was me thinking we'd voted in the conservative, says one of the columnists, and then we have the son, which is like say on football and already reserving at talk about the budget up here saying tax, hell, thank god for 30. so you can see that the conservative press the right wing press are not to him. impressed by what jeremy hunt has just said that the middle class
1:14 pm
is basically all going to be using. squeezed by the tax rises that, that i'd be facing. when you look at the, the voting population at large, they have already in many ways written the concept is off because of the recent weeks of time was created by jeremy hunt's predecessors. now, this might fix things a certain extent, and indeed, richey soon as the new prime minister has had a bit of a poll boost since he came in, given the conservative pole vase. but labor still has a sizable majority over them in the polls. and with most people looking at the waste packets being smaller because of increase taxes, they're spending potential being smaller because of inflation. they're not, i think going to turn round and say, all right, so we're going to get the tories, the benefit of the doubt that the markets seem to be doing for the moment. thank you so much for re challenge reporting from london. all twitter is troubles appears
1:15 pm
to be worsening, its closing its officers until monday, after hundreds of employees reportedly quit the new boss. a law must have given staff the option of signing up to what he called a hardcore twitter or leave with 3 months severance. pay the deadline for workers to decide past several hours ago and a disabled employee was fired for refusing to return to the office is now suing the company. twitter is also facing legal action for a previous layoff. ensure as an editor, at large would sina, that's a technology website, and he suspects twitter staff are choosing to leave the company because musk management style. he is known for being a very hard charging ceo who has extreme demands of his employees, right? we've seen him talk about sleeping on the floor of the test, the plants we saw after he took over twitter that some of the people inside twitter were bringing in their, their flipping bags and having to stay over night there. and we know that he was
1:16 pm
pushing them very hard. what i think is interesting is that this was one of the 1st time that he was the employees tell him what they think of all this. and that was by him saying, either you're going to sign up and say you're going to follow along with this minimum 40 hour work week. i expect you in the office or you can walk out the door and it seems according to a lot of reports, but a lot of people took the door very clear. i think that you must realize this maybe that he doesn't have very many friends in the office right now, which, you know, it's hard to have a lot of friends when you've cut half the staff and then try to kind of get a bunch of other more people to go by telling them that they're doing a terrible job and, and you know, just kind of generally causing a lot of stress. so i think the question is, where is this all going to go? right is, is twitter is suddenly going to be significantly smaller than it started. i mean, just earlier this month it was 7500 employees. then it went down to some 3500.
1:17 pm
according to some reports, it is dropped down to drop down by 88 percent. that's unbelievable. number of people to walk out the door inside months. the u. s. government is recommending immunity for saudi arabia. the crown prince in law related to the killing of journalist german cache of gene. it's a reversal of statements made by president joe biden. during his election campaign, had been said, man was recently named prime minister, and the biden administration now says his senior position should shield him. how shall z a washington post call him? this was killed in the saudi council. it's an stumble in 2018, and the judge will ultimately decide whether to grant immunity. ah, we're down to just 2 days before the world cup and senate goals chances of reaching the knockout stage have been dealt. a major blow with their most influential player
1:18 pm
ruled out of the tournament sod. yamani has been forced to undergo knee surgery following an injury suffered last week while playing for his club site in germany. senegal start their campaign against the netherlands. on monday. cuts are in ecuador are also in that group. we're now joined by africa football journalists, gary al smith. so gary, help us understand how influential monet is to this senegal team. well, i think money is less influential to the team. us. ms. she is tortured. tina a good enough. yeah. that, that, that's pretty good. that's a, that's a good assessment of the situation. but what do you think are their chances now of progressing beyond the group stage? that gracing of all this senegalese team is that they have been billed to le. yes. and that unity together. this and college, most importantly, i think should be enough. even with outside of your money as an inspiration,
1:19 pm
he has always been careful to not give off. vide that he was in put simply, and that he, even though he is, that is to see that they have maybe 2 or 3 able replacements on the pitch, who can actually do what he does. what does he do? his cause roles? yes. his goals he brings less into that game. the if you play in the some a got iasd dotcom do that. what people worry about. his opp sims is that new with which he's bringing that 18. he's like a talisman who's like a to time. he's like the face of the team and that's what the lose would all be in . be that remember the ah african champion. not just because of sad you. monday at noon. and also because of the up ended by the last couple of years. they also in the we t of the few foreign kings in addition to several other impressive sophistic. so i think even without him to refine wendy's thoughts, i gave that at a lunch on monday. right. and the look i had to the knockout stage for us. i mean,
1:20 pm
could we see a 2nd straight world cup without an african team reaching that knockout stage? while it's in 5 team, it's oh, possible. but i think the standard ensemble, i'm for african teams because you look at the various groups come points out to a group that hasn't garner in us. it was really to, i got my congregated look out stages because it's all up into a gun. i beat switzerland, which of 16 in the world i to goes to norm says the miracle also beats georgia by 3 goes to the old budgets. not they're very big opposition, but the points i want to make is not broken. i'm quite good. the white solid and in their group, they have that. what's a shall to offset that comes and i could point to doug. doug, you mentioned the one that kathy is in together with an acquittal aswell. asked synagogue as a group where become going to their on of 16. so fingers crossed this year. we will
1:21 pm
be able to get them african team and then especially of his world cup way and because of a lot of factors that i can i come talk about in a few seconds. that plainfield will be a bit more level that in previously outcomes. all right, thank you so much and carry out that for joining us from a cra. thank you for having all the angle team half a college the work done by migrant workers for this world cup. the english football association has pushed for katara 2022 to leave a positive legacy for those who helped build the tournament. geronimo raska has more from the squads, training camp and walker putting down their drills for drills. these are some of the men who have helped build the stadiums for the cattle world cup. and now they're getting to eat some of the stars. he will shine in them about king in all the stadium. i'm a electrical technician, only full know 3 unhealthy elsie know about syria and i like to go like national british navators. so she'll favorite higher home as

1:23 pm
much as we can. we can do everything. but what we can do is to is try and help people as much because tournament organizes stress improvements have been made in the living conditions of hundreds of thousands of migrant workers. a minimum wage has been established and the so called co follow system, which meant work has had to get approval from their employers to switch jobs or leave. the country has been abolished the international labor organization in castle greece, but also says more efforts needed so that all workers can benefit. it was deep dive to fully implement these changes and challenges do remain. these include dealing with retaliation against workers who wish to change jobs. more also need to be done to reduce reach payment violations and in short, timely access to justice. domestic workers must also benefit fully from the labor reforms. this includes respect for working times and the right to at least one day off per week. these workers have built the stadiums in which the engine team can

1:31 pm
so have significant is this launch? yeah. can you hear me, sir? the last lane i missed. i'm just asking you host significant is this launch that india has now long as the 1st privately developed rocket into space. you know, all of us in the private sector and i've been doing association which is association or private sector. you know, the way the story can problem. of course is the pro pro bowman for the country. it's in the private player, a new startup in 4 years. as we never rock launch or rock, the young man supported by john pallet would be able to give prior experience domain be able to launch a rocket. this one has
1:32 pm
a sub over does one at high dog. you want 1.5, and it is part to become as after our phone base dr. becomes right. so do you think that the opening up of space exploration for private companies in india is going to boost the sector? because as it stands right now, india is funding for space. research is just a fraction of what other countries spend like the u. s. and china, for example, so the national space is all, would they all lean and harvesting the dial in which we are in the private domain. and secondly, as you know, one year and one of the fuel space batting missions. but we only have 1.6 percent of the economy. we think then on. but you know, people more in the space economy, india have a larger pipe and there could be possible privately. and then what are the
1:33 pm
challenges private companies who are entering the sector? surely there are challenges initially mean they literally even start with the challenge, but that has been cleared by the government when they gave they they shouldn't use with all the pretty newspaper policy just so we find the discussions with the moment and we are hoping that it will come on but yes, if i see a challenge, it is times because space requires a lot of long predators. and because they don't pick up from golden, go ahead. yeah. apart from government support. private will need to invest. initially the investment from lola for good l d one.
1:34 pm
but we will, i'm in this editing move forward. we're also required and also of course, in the short market, which is just not in india. but let me just ask you this though, because india has often credited for, for pulling off what's described as ambitious missions on relatively lower budgets than countries like the united states and china. i'll just give one example. and yes, mars orbits or cost $74000000.00, as i'm sure you're aware in 2014, compare it to nasa. more mission at $671000000.00. so on a global level, it might seem incredibly inexpensive, but on a local level, what do you say to those people who criticize this? because they say on the one hand, there are children, for example, in india who we don't have food to eat yet. this money is being spent on the space, exploration i like you, i let go on. so this question by saying what dr. experience was not for
1:35 pm
and he started to reach it. being in like this role program was for the common for the region. do i reach and go fishing, improve? do economy use for medical times? the question again, right now i will go in india and it will become commercial. it will be ultimately pull their normal growth has to be, are going to get to the common man on how does india keep the costs so low though? oh, there is no and then and there. and there is one is because many of the so to be done in house and israel are spending the money. we have a lot of talented and overall costs in india are lower than
1:36 pm
may be many of the countries. ok, we'll leave it there. we thank you so much and you'll come our boss for joining us from new delhi. thank you. b u. s. house speaker. nancy pelosi, who's left, the democrats in the house of representatives for nearly 2 decades is stepping down . the 1st female house speaker will stay on the back benches to complete her term. many democrats in congress say they'll still count on her as a mentor. she have returned c reports from capitol hill. the democrats will lose control of the house of representatives in january, but the policy was in jubilant mood as it convened on the chamber on thursday. the house will be an order of 2 days of speculation. nancy pelosi, the 1st female speaker confirmed that she will be stepping down from her leadership position in the party, a position she is held since 2003 and with great confidence in our caucus,
1:37 pm
i will not seek reelection to democratic leadership in the next congress for may the hours come for a new generation to lead the democratic caucus that i so deeply respect. and i am grateful that so many are ready and willing to shoulder this awesome responsibility . she was received rapturously by her caucus, a show of unity in stark contrast to a republican party in turmoil after a per sharing in the mid terms. they may have won the house, but the majority is very nice for the republican party establishment claims. the donald trump wing of the party for the mid term election results, but the troubling of the policy blames the republican party establishment for not being bold enough and going also by live ministration with the majority in the house. the republicans can launch congressional investigations into the biden and ministration. already they say they will be looking into joe biden, some hunters business dealings and allegations of corruption involving the president. this is an investigation of joe barton, the president united states,
1:38 pm
and why he lied to the american people about his knowledge and participation in his family's international business schemes. national security interest require the committee conduct investigation and we will pursue all avenues. avenues that have long been ignored with the current republican leadership is wrestling with how far it should go to appease the trump wing of the party without alienating swing versus head of the next elections in 2020. before she ever time. see al jazeera washington, the dominican republic governments is building a border wall and a bid to stop undocumented migrants entering from neighboring haiti. it says it also wants to prevent weapons and drug smuggling. but as theresa bo reports on the hub on in the dominican republic rights group, say, the wall won't stop desperate haitians from trying to cross over. i will to divide the caribbean island of espanola. it's designed to separate the dominican republic from haiti, dominique, and general raphielle lonia says the will will play
1:39 pm
