5:02 pm
oh it's just one day to go to the start of the world cup here in katara and the president of football's world governing body has hit out of the critics of the tournament. johnnie infants, you know, suggested hypocrisy and inconsistency when the world focuses on issues in qatar. infant tina defended the treatment of migrant workers saying europe should not be giving what he calls moral lessons, such sabu of the migrant workers. if you allow me we are told many, many lessons from some europeans from the western world. i'm european actually i am european and i just, i feel european i think for what we europeans have been doing in the last 3000 years around the world. we should be apologizing for next 3000 years
5:03 pm
before starting to give moral lessons to people. this doesn't mean that we shouldn't point. edward doesn't work hidden carter as well. of course, there are still things that don't work and the need to be addressed. but this more lesson giving me one sided as just the focus polaris was more from that face briefing into ha, i think in frontier you know, the favorite president has really bristled out the criticism level that katha leveled at him. and he's really wanted to go on the attack against the media on the, on the eve of the world cup. he said that, you know, there have been problems that have been problems with human rights. but he says
5:04 pm
that it's been impossible to make any changes with our engaging that's just criticizing at a distance. maybe even though even having a world cup in council would not allow any of those issues to be addressed. he also pointed out that progress has been made on those issues. it's not perfect, but he said it's a process. the also set it apart, proceed on the part of the international media with various various wars and the european foreign policy over the last 3000 years. deserving of quite a lot of criticism as well. i think for the reaction in the room, maybe there's a bit of a feeling that, okay, that is true. but the international media has also criticized your, for example, for the was in iraq and afghanistan, they've not turned a blind eye to that, that, that rain governments have been doing. but i think also there is
5:05 pm
a feeling that maybe some of the criticism has been on. a lot of the criticism has been fair and a free media plays a role in highlighting the problems that johnny and fantine says paper. and catherine have been working on resolving when rossa invaded ukraine in february. the lives of millions of people were turned upside down. despite that, the national side just missed out on qualifying for the world cup. as where we challenged reports from european just outside key for many young people, football is a welcome distraction from the death and destruction when russian troops closed in on the key of suburb of opin in february, searcy and arena left their apartments and fled. it was april before russia abandoned its push on cliff and the family ventured home again. go mister the baltimore sir. bonham was admitted of gleaton when we return,

for bulls get them in the morning wherever they are, the boys look for bullying. excuse their relief and away to distract himself. sure . foot boys their favorite thing in life. you can destroy homes and stadiums. conversely, you cannot destroy their love for football and they're going to become football players. all parents watch from the sidelines. the war goes on. but this is a semblance of normality, at least one of the eloquent to learn the children wanted to return home, meet the coach in their relatives as soon as possible. i think football is amazing . children need as much joy, fun and time with their friends as possible. and of course, like millions, if not billions of people around the world, their eyes are on the world cup and capital. but unfortunately, the national team hasn't qualified for capital 2022. so there'll be no ukraine playing there and blue and yellow that football is still helping bring this
5:08 pm
traumatized water country back together. and the kids know who they're supporting. engel and my favorite is spain. my favorite team in my for countries, portugal to rory challenz to 0 here in ukraine saying in ukraine and russia soon i had visited the country for the 1st time since becoming britain's prime minister. he met the ukrainian president and keep on saturday followed the marizza landscape. said they discussed important issues are both there countries on global security. so 1st and you came to supply a 125 m p aircraft guns, and technology to counter iranian may drones operated by russian forces continue supporting your fight to get grain out of ukraine. and it, it is a testament to you, lot of that you have kids so deeply about how this conflict affects the rest of the
5:09 pm
world. we are also working to mobilize private finance to help you rebuild your country. and i look forward to hosting a reconstruction conference in london next summer. the 1st train to the newly retaken city of her son has arrived from keys. the rail linked to the strategically important southern city has been restored. 9 months since russia invaded in february, her son was the 1st major region to be retaken to be taken. it remains under russian forces until earlier this month. most of ukraine's trains have continued to operate during the war despite repeated attacks. hundreds of ukrainians rushed to get aid and press on freedom square. the red cross distributed food and other essential supplies. the city is slowly recovering from russia occupation, but it lacks water and electricity produced. what scared us most was the prospect of someone who wrapped in you all for having a pro ukrainian position. you'd be taken to a prison. you could go outside and never come back. i was pregnant for the war started now there is no heating,
5:10 pm
so we need to warm up somehow. i and i sleep fully dressed with my head on because my head is always cold for 10 days with been cut from the heating ukrainian prosecutors are investigating possible war crimes in the harrison region. they're examining villages destroyed during the russian occupation. investigators say many civilians were killed before the towns were retaken, but the death toll is unknown in currents present to the cues. russian soldiers are committing atrocities in 1st on holes of clothes, the malaysia, and what's been called the most competitive election in the country's history. 3 main alliances are battling for power. the nation's been dogged by political instability with 3 prime ministers in the last 4 years. florence louis reports from columbia. some had been standing in line and hour before poles opened. the 6000000 new voters because of automatic voter registration and because the
5:11 pm
voting age has been lowered to 18, squeezed by the rising cost of living. many vote to say the economy is one of their main concerns for the future, where they send educators to increase 3 oppertunity are back to environmentally living will for everyone else for funding coming generation economic, what's important is the economy to get rid of corruption and bribery and voting for my children's future. and of course, malaysia, though most of the craft is a major issue. the top ranks of one of the main contenders varies a national or national front is tainted with corruption. they were voted out in the last election, but made a political come back as part of a new alliance after the previous government collapsed because of infighting and defection. the main opposition, the alliance of hope is hoping to repeat the electoral victory in 2018. then the,
5:12 pm
the national alliance, a relatively new partnership. they feel accused of encouraging the defection which led to the collapse of the previous government. and i think the considerations that people would meet now would be rich if the more fitting government, rather than where do i cost my protest vote, or redway express my dissatisfaction analysts regardless as malaysia the most competitive election. it's also one of the most difficult to call. some surveys predict the opposition will take the most seats, but not enough to form government on its own. the question of who lead malaysia may still not be clear, even after all votes have been counted. florence louis al jazeera quality port. bridget, well, just from the university of nodding and malaysians asia research institute. and earlier i asked her about the high turnout and how that could affect the outcome. we've seen, you know, over 70 percent. and we're expecting that that will,
5:13 pm
that figure will increase when the final number comes in. and we've seen the lines full of young people that the young people of this country have taken this election very seriously. and they've come out to vote, especially in the peninsula. right. and in terms off the parties who are battling for power, what we understand is that the main battle will be between the long ruling united malays national organization and the opposition leader and are abroad, heem? what do you expect to happen there? i think we're abraham's packets and higher, bonner, the alliance of hope has, has secured the most seat. of course we're waiting to hear, the coding has begun, so we will get a sense of the amount of tally. i think the big surprise will be what happens with the old alliance and national alliance, or virus, and national. i think whether not they're able to kind of have a rebound to the last bit, or whether or not they were actually lose seats. and they've not perform well during the campaign, but we also see the emergence of another coalition. and
5:14 pm
a lot of young people are voting for this coalition. and so we can see, we'll see how many seats they're able to secure. so we the 3 cornered race which makes this particular election in more competitive than in any recollection in history. so if no single party wins, then what are we looking at next? well, we've seen malaysian history that there have been to hung state parliament states families both in a place called pair rock and kinda so there are precedence for this. so i think what the normal precedent is that the person or the coalition that has the most seats is asked to form the government. and i think we will see negotiations, particularly because regional coalitions are expected to do well into and the 2 areas of borneo sub on our walk. so we expect to have negotiations beginning, but after whoever is one the most seats is called and asked the former government. and as for the voters who are coming out, what's at stake for them is simply all about the economy this time around. i think
5:15 pm
it's not just about the economy, but i definitely feel that this is a very important issue for especially for younger voters. but i would say that it's not just about that. there are issues of stability and those that have supported our bond is wanting to have that kind of better more political reforms, a better governance issues of corruption, all of these things mel together. and i think we've seen a very exciting campaign, especially in the last week. so had on al jazeera, this horrendous abuse of power is the latest of a long series of which us, why donald trump is heading out at the u. s. justice department and has millions go hungry and madagascar, we look at what's or oh, is responsible. ah,
5:16 pm
there'll be some flooding in vietnam, took the sullen vietnam, and maybe, especially in hopes, you mean cities that arc of cloud is part of the circulatory system that's been developing over the rather warm south china sea. so the orange top suggest persistence and heaviness. it stretches up this fond also, missed the philippines and you follow that line dance. we put it in militia to singapore and sumatra as the wet areas of the last week or so. their daily shafts east of that but to the north at the northeast monsoon is setting in that normally gives you the cold, stable winter in east asia. last some rain every now and again is rain cutting away by monday from japan have been given to went sunday. but look at the time sheet. you think that she that does look a bit higher and you be right to the higher than the average here they've come down in the air is south the anc. see where they are really hot. recently boylen now 24 . so they're coming up once again. i think as the warmth has been put into the ground, just give it a day without rain or cloud. it might warm up
5:17 pm
5:18 pm

5:21 pm
