ah britton's beloved curry houses are in crisis to indian don is shut down every week. use a bricks, financial friday and the pandemic $1.00 oh, $1.00 east investigate on out you 0. i live in hats off for 16 years in 2010. i was live on air in these old seekins. oh, how, when the well comp announcement was made. it's just really great to have the 1st mid least wellcare. it unites people from different backgrounds and races, and that's why it's so important and i'm excited that it's finally on my doorstep in castle. this is going to be an amazing venue for the well. ca can't wait to bring my kids. it kick off is just around the corner, and i think we're going to get some really great game. ah, this is al jazeera. ah,

hello, i'm fully bachelor. this is in these, our live from doha. coming up in the next 60 minutes fif, achieved johnny fantine accuses western critics of hypocrisy. a day before the world cup kicks off in cut off. but the smaller, less giving one side. it's just the focus. i was on the job than doha, and i'll tell you why. international forces will be bringing it gets to the skies and naval destroyers to the ports. but more spans, coming from the work up are not going to see them. also the sour wishes to knock makes his for his visit to key as british prime minister, promising continued support for ukraine. and preliminary results are expected this hour in malaysia is tightly contested national elections as the country faces.

political instability is just one day. now until the start of the fee for katara 2022 world cup hearing doha, and the president of footballs world governing body has hit out at critics of the tournament. johnny valentino has defended the treatment of migrant workers, saying europe should not be giving what he calls. moral lessons said 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, not 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 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 hypocrisy. and as was presented, peter estimate is with me now on set peter, every mark of all hour and a half news conference there by johnny valentino his clearly fed up with the constant critics of cutter and fever. quite rightfully. and i think that in a,

for all his faults and all the faults of fee for an former fee for presidents as well, where you made a couple of fir, good points as well. there is certain elements of hypocrisy that we've seen in terms of the criticism of the world cup. it does appear to come from the same places at all times i. e, you know, europe or the waste and so on. and the i elements, i think of bitterness and jealousy when you have a look at the, the structure of football football as a global game. right. and just because the world cup is taking place in cutter, all in brazil or south africa was 12010. and, and, and 14, in the case of brazil, these countries also have the right to bid for, but through them they also have the right to host the tournament. and if i may say an anecdote with you in the lead up to the world cup in south africa, remember, so there was dentist country, the 1st african country to his the tournament. there were tabloids that every other week there was a story about how the world cup was going to be taken away from south africa. right . and they, one of them found a size smaller just to predict that south africa was rife for

a major earthquake in 2010, around june, july. okay. now we can go upstairs and speak to rob and call a hyphen everton. and they will tell you right south africa does not get, i get a significant thing here. and this is what janet ventana was talking about in his news conference is that this is happening. the criticism is happening even a day before the well kept kicks off, which is quite unusual if we had all these negativity surrounding the tournament right before the kickoff it is, it is very unusual because you would think that at some point, the criticism comes to an end all a relative in, and then we start to focus on the football, right? because it is actually a tournament that's about to kick off. and all of these seems the 31 nations that have come here. they're going to try and win the tournament right now. he also talked about the alcohol ban outside of stadiums. a decision which k a pretty late all so right? 2 days before the term and kicks off. what did he have to say about that? yeah, so as you say, it's a very late again, you know, 48 hours approximately before the actual tournament this decision has come through

. and i think again, one or 2 valid points that he made, there was one thing he said about, i'm sure you can go 3 hours without alcohol, right? and i think anybody who's t total will tell you that 3 hours is really not going to feel problem. but then at the same time, you know it's, it's something that you're gonna, i suppose, if you are a big drink all enjoy your beer from that you're going to just have to suck up his right. now another of the issues also at the controversies, if you, if you were, was the issue of l g beaten hughes and whether they'd be welcome here in qatar and infant tina again today reiterated that everyone was welcome in a contract he did. and similarly, as we've seen from the supreme committee all along the message has been everybody as welcome here. but the could be the, the, the request is please respect the local culture, the local customs and so on. and so for an infancy, no, again made a very valid point. i thought we said that this is not a war. this is a football tournament. and you know if you're coming here to enjoy the football tournament, then really everybody again is welcome. and everybody should have

a good time. and so peter wasn't in the reaction to inventing as of speech. there again, an hour and a half talking about the politics and not the actual tournament, the football surrounding the well kept. what have people been say about? yes, sir, said the general reaction has been almost one of amazement, but in a sort of negative way. right? wondering why is infants, you know, saying these things so close to the beginning of the tournament? i there was one that i thought was particularly interesting because infant in a tried to relate himself to being a victim of bullying as a boy growing up in switzerland with a red head with fur, with freckles as he described himself. and it's just interesting that people's or asking, how is this necessarily some that you can equate to say migrant worker in cancer, working in 4550 degrees heats in the summertime. but nevertheless, that's what difference ino has said. and as you say here, we all approximately 24 hours away from the big ticket and we are talking about it . but we also talking about the millions of fans who are expected here in our

cattle for this tournament. about 1200000 fans are expected in cattle for the world caps our high right is joining us now live from 100 international airport where you've been meeting some of these fans. tell us about the atmosphere at the airport sour and just how, how big are the arrivals that that's right folly. well, some of the 1300000 football funds have been arriving all right before the walcott . you'll hear a lot of rabbit chancing behind me. we've had lots of people arriving, especially from latin america, odds and seen, or i've been speaking some mexican funds. i've spoken to some 1000 funds, and everyone is super excited. i've got 2 fans of just lans, if they've come all the way from ecuador, and they seem to be really excited to have john, you said your name, my name is jen and you, i'm, that is, and how long is it taken for you to get here? i mean, it was pretty low fly, they took around, they said more than 24 hours already because we had to make

a lot of layovers. yeah. but it says, my brother came all the way from well or to mother. and then we had to travel to body. then we have our flight here and we just landed. and you just landed with traditional i could or in must. does that right? yeah. these are travicia a mass made by like the become people who are my country. so we're very happy to be here representing 17000000 people of my country. now i'm assuming that said the opening game, which is happening in less than 24 hours from now, is between capital. and i could do, i'm assuming that's where you're going to be tomorrow. yes, we're going to go, so it's more of game as, as well as the launching of the start. i meant and we're so happy we're so excited to be here. we're really hope we can make like tomorrow, a good game. and we're hoping and looking forward to win tomorrow's game and start this will come in in the best way. i have one more question for you. what sorts of ecuador install now,

particular have had a massive expansion and they say that they all ready for the 1300000 football fans are due to arrive for launch a great atmosphere there. sorry, thank you very much sarah. i am not reporting a line from how many international airport wave fans are arriving for the world cup which kicks off in 24 hours. now, while kata is calling on security expertise from around the world to safeguard an estimated 1200000 fans, as we said, the defense ministry says it will be the most secure. welcome in history, osama bin, java trade for somebody, miss i. e naval base organ called are the sports don, maybe water according done sailing way be reviewed. seat warships are docking in 6 countries have signed up to be part of operations look up shield for the fee for tournament thousands of soldiers, sailors, airmen will be contributing to a unique event which contact nature was as opportunities and challenges. i will

but they want to assure football fund that every possible security aspect is being taken care of. for the 1st of all, up the middle east. some of the 0 at the i naval base and we've got plenty more world company is coming up later. this is our portugal land in cut off with christiana rinaldo hoping to put the controversy of his manchester united comments behind him. first of all, the world news, and richie soon arc has visited ukraine for the 1st time since becoming britain's prime minister. he met with credit present jeremy's lensky and keith pledging continued support for ukraine. we will stand with you until ukraine has won the peace and security it needs and deserves. and then we will stand with you as you rebuild your great country. and i look forward to hosting a reconstruction conference in london next summer by then let us hope that we have

ended this barbarous war and secured a just peace live to john hall who joined this from key. so, jonah, what exactly is wishes to knock offering to ukraine? when he was in and out this afternoon on an unannounced visit for obvious security reasons. making his 1st visit to cave after becoming prime minister at the end of october and falling and walking in the footsteps of course of his previous s a. but one bar is johnson who became the 1st foreign needed to visit keith. in the early months of the war, he had a street named after him. bar is johnson, hugely popular. he has no word as to whether any similar offer on or is on off of the richie soon act. but he did come, as you say, bearing a package of support for the $60000000.00 worth of military aid being offered by britain to ukraine, including a particular anti aircraft guns and radar and technology were told to ward off

attacks by drones. and that's particularly important to cause after 2 waves of aerial bombardment by russia just this week 6. since october, mr. lensky said, since the 1st days of the war, ukraine and the u. k. have been the strongest of allies and ball from richie soon as he described his visit as deeply humbling. he said, britain knows what it means to fight for freedom with you all the way. meanwhile, jona, the 1st ukrainian train has arrived in curse on since the fee was retaken by ukrainian forces. yes, that's right. dubbed the victory train. this train left keys at around 10 pm on friday night to 100 passengers on board and rolled into the train station shortly. after 9 am this morning, the 1st passenger service to enter on, since it was occupied by russian soldiers in the 1st days of the war 9 months ago.

and, you know, the train service in ukraine is extraordinary. it is seen by so many across the country as a symbol of hope and normality as it has continued to crisscross the country at all, but occupied areas from city to city throughout the war. and now this symbol again of hope and normality, rolling into hash on a week after it was liberated for russian control, the russians retreated to the east bank of the denise people now beginning to try and rebuild some semblance of normality in their lives. field reports of shortages of basic services at food, water, and seating operation. still on going to try and de mine, the city and the region and lots and lots of evidence. it is reported by investigators being turned up of war crimes against civilians, including murder and torture. jonah, thank you for that. john hall live there in keys. in malaysia, preliminary results are expected in the closely font general election in the coming

hours. 3 main line says are battling for power and what's being called the most competitive poles in the country's history. malaysia's been played by political instability with 3 prime ministers in the last 4 years. drawing 3 reports from some had been standing in line and our before polls opened the 6000000 new voters because of automatic voter registration. and because the voting age has been low, what to 18 squeezed by the rising cost of living. many vote to say the economy is one of the main concerns for the future, where they send educators to increase career 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 don't want to finance the craft is a major issue. the top ranks of one of the main contenders varies the 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 electro victory in 2018. then the, the national alliance, a relatively new partnership. they've been 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, which is the more fitting government, rather than where do i cause 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 leads malaysia

may still not to be clear, even after all votes have been counted. florence louis al jazeera quality port. earlier, we spoke to bridget while she was from the university of nodding and malicious asia research institute. she says this election has been greater voter participation. first surprise has been as the high level of turn out, we've seen, you know, over 70 percent. and we're expecting that that will, that figure will increase when the final number comes in. and we've seen the line school 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. there are issues of stability and those that have supported our bond and wanting to have a 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. the big surprise will be what happens with the old

alliance and national alliance or virus on national. i think whether or not they're able to kind of have a rebounds or the last bit or whether or not they were actually lose seats and they've not perform well during the campaign. we also see the emergence of another coalition, and 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 it's a 3 corner race which makes this particular election in more competitive than in any election in history. we will see negotiation, and particularly because regional coalitions are expected to do well into the 2 areas of borneo sub on our walk. so we expect to have negotiations beginning, but it, after whoever is one, the most seats is called and asked to form a government. nepal is due to whole federal elections on sunday. hundreds of parliamentary seats had being contested. veteran politicians are considered the front runners, but they are more independent candidates than ever before. barnaby lo has this

report from catman to a last ditch effort to voters schuman sammy joined. supporters on a bike ride around cartman do, or he's running for a seat in parliament, just other did he? but even what did he goes to some, cept, seized many times, but people circumstances, evans improved. that isn't, is dec use at the same legacy. and now it's important to break that legacy on line . a campaign called no, not again, as in no to traditional politicians, has gained traction in local pulls in me a number of candidates from major political parties last to independence. one of the biggest winners wrapper and now mir cartman, do berlin shaw. the growing movement is being referred to a subaru in effect. you run it out of the saying, we need young leaders. the old leaders haven't done anything we want to give. the young people attain over 10 administrations have come and gone since the end of the monarchy in 20 o 8. the top contenders have served as prime minister multiple times and none of

the parties that have one elections have finished their 5 year term. there are more than 2400 candidates vying for 100. 65 directly elected parliament seats of that number more than 800 are running us independence. that's to record for elections. the core years have been dominated by well entrenched the politicians. what is too early to tell whether the political tide is turning so young, he is confident of victory. but analysts say the new comers may be popular in the cities and among young voters, but they have not been able to make inroads in the countryside. so when you look at the oven areas, you see a lot of social media action happening. when you go to the villages, you go to fire place is there their demands are we need drill is over here. you know, we need, ah, water and i tapped my daughter, sammy says his platform is no different, but he maintains his opponents. promises are empty and has assured borders that he

isn't just paying lip service like happens what i'm offering are things that have been pending. the people would have been satisfied if their constitutional and fundamental rights of education held employment were mit long. yeah, no matter who wins and say these elections have proven that there is hope for change. it may not happen now. but there are science, a new generation of leaders could govern nepal. one day barnett below al jazeera kaufman, do kenya's, former leader who kenyatta and wanders present. polk gamier, calling for a cease fire in east and democratic republic of congo fighters from the armed group and 23 have made major gains in recent weeks. advancing towards the eastern city of go back, mac m web has the latest a few kilometers from the fighting. the front line is about 5 kilometers further north of where we are down this road. there's a check point here, man by congress. the soldiers, there are some un peacekeepers here as well. and the congress forces them 23,

a holding deposition. this follows kenya's foreign ministry saying that the former canyon president who re kenyatta, whose facilitating regional piece talked in a statement said that he'd had a phone call with rwandan president could gummy. and that company had agreed to assist in urging em 23 fighters to cease fire and to withdraw from the territories that they've occupied. m. 23 is widely understood to be backed by rwanda, which is just a few kilometers over there where they were. wanda had always denied it. congress army spokesman said that they hadn't been any sign of with withdrawal yet. and also that fighting is ongoing. on another front near hunger, which is to the west of m 20 three's territory. congress government spokesman told us that they're waiting to see if rwanda will respect this agreement and said that rwanda hasn't respected such agreements in the past. meanwhile, civilians bearing

a lot of the brunt of this conflict more than 200000 people, have been displaced. many of them living in camps between here, where we are in the city of goma, just down the road here. and those people who are injured in the fighting on that side of the front line often don't get any access to medical care. some others who able to get to go do and we spoke to some of them. me walk out and get. i was in our village and then the fighting started, and one of the bombs hit our house. my husband lost his legs and died. i was taken to a hospital near by, but no one could help me until was brought here or fed. the 2 shall quadrille, my teasing. we feel very traumatized by all of this. we're living in the camp in the rain without even plastic sheets for shelter. we're only asking for the people in power to bring peace, so we can go home because we're used to doing our own work and living by our own means. the u. s. department is set in a statement that along with special envoy for this region,

from the u. k. france and belgium that they condemn in the strongest possible words, the advances of un sanctions and 23 armed group. these are some of the strongest comments we've had. so far from the western powers who were influential in this region that people here waiting to see if this increased diplomatic activity is going to amount to any changes on the ground ahead of piece talks, which are due to resume in low on in and go live capital luanda on monday. still ahead on the news, our surrenders abuse the powers, the latest of a long series of which is why donald trump is hitting out of the us justice department. as millions go hungry and madagascar we look at watch of who is responsible and will tell you which team this is predicting well when the 1st game of welcome ah

ah it's still pretty warm in the northern half of argentine and pretty stormy in some past. just the south of the river played, but that's going away. now. we leave behind the warmth. 33 and what it says is on the high side and that's generating showers just in land were slightly warmer. let your go. i looks good. good. part of southeastern brazil looks good including rio, but the shelves are becoming a bit more wide spread. the line is breaking up to some degree. there was all outbreaks of potential flood here. and the same was true in columbia up until recently and in venezuela. but those shares do because they dump them. trinidad has still got a minor flood warning. i just been fairly wet here as well. was for the regular sun, the stores. but on the big side, the concentration in the next day or so could well be places like nicaragua, costa rica in panama. but behind my head is an obvious orange blob that's ins

exacerbated by the cold air coming to the states and producing heavy rain mostly over water. but it's the coldest notable thing in states which is generated at least a meter of snow in place like buffalo, new york, and some parts around lake erie. so big winter storm in the great lakes because of the cold is come across the rest of the states. but it's cotton down elsewhere. although if you look at 9 in houston, you think that's not very nice either. ah, motivated, active, and more politically engaged than ever before. demanding change on their own terms . welcome to generation change. a global theories, the attempt to understand and talent, the ideas that mobilize youth around well to we look good presentation of people like us in the politics and government and higher aspects of society. generation

change coming soon on al jazeera. what happens when the news media failed to do their job? it's one of the biggest reasons why iraq is not yet a democracy. there's no accountability for listening. post exposes the power is controlling the narrative russian media. does the lot of fabre rep lee. his message has to be back by the whole propaganda for apple and the tools they used to do it. how do you read through all of them information? how do you determine what is this? and for you, with the listening post your guide to the media on al jazeera lou . ah,

no. again, you're watching the news hour on al jazeera with me for the battle. a reminder about top stories. kick off to the football world cup in cut eyes just one day away in fever's, president johnny valentino is accusing western critics of hypocrisy. when it comes to cut out, he defended the treatment of migrant workers, saying europe should not be given what he calls more. less. richie sooner has made his 1st visit to ukraine since becoming british prime minister. he promised $50000000.00 in military as he met with ukraine mutual entity and preliminaries. we'll try expecting the malaysians. kelsey election remain alliances, a balance of power. i expect it to be a tight race, the tightest ins, independence, more than 60 years ago. after the 1st time, north korea leader came john own has revealed his daughter to the world. her existence had never been publicly confirmed before. photos have emerged showing the 2 hand in hand inspecting a ballistic missile. on friday,

the young young testified a house on 17 intercontinental ballistic miss 5. robert kelly is an associate professor at tucson national university in south korea. he says the decision to release the images suggest kim's daughter may become north korea next north cruz monarchy. right, it's ruled by the kim family and there been 3 events with the 3rd one. we anticipate that if the current kim were to pass away, that the leadership would pass to a blood relative on. now, it's never been the case. it's rarely the case and i'll talk or see that you have succession go from a male to female. so the daughter is actually the chosen one. that would actually be sort of a pretty unique moment. but still, my sense is that's probably some of the political backdrop for this right decision began to show that kim has a family and that these, the people who would, would take over if, if you were to pass ways were pointing out that you had health care in the past and he's pretty obese, obviously he's a heavy smoker and this is how his father passed away to from health crisis from

his alcoholism. and so my guess is that there's a concern inside the regime that once is kids are old enough. they need to get pictures gone, and so that's probably what the says. furious st news agency reports for syrian soldiers had been killed in israeli as strikes military posts in the central and western regions were hate including in homes and the provinces, hammer and attack. yeah. israel has been mounting attacks against iran back to forces deployed in those areas. turkey has inaugurated or new housing settlement inferior, northwestern italy province, which is held by the opposition turkish praise and worship typewriter on hope. this will encourage 1000000 to 4000000 syrian refugees to return home, then a hard re for somebody stumbled. well, how much? hello has called turkey or home. since he left syria, 6 years ago, he decided to leave after the government we gain control of a level returning is not an option for those who support the opposition. but mama

areas in the north. by the end of the year, 100000 units should be ready. it insists any returns will be voluntary, but these reassurances have done little to come see it in the weekend. i'm not going to do a little clearly the syrians know the turkey is among the few countries that opened the door to them. but now, because of some people in society, they're facing discrimination, there have been deportations. but according to the government, it's because residency rules have been violated. but many ready to complain about difficult administrative procedures and restrictions on movement. there's also attention with local communities who consider syrians and economic burden. and when we came here 7 years ago, we brought nothing with us. how do we escaped war? since then, it has been a struggle that we are not comfortable. and now there is uncertainty for many of

those who have made this country home, said a hood, they're al jazeera stumble. the reuters news agencies reporting that electric car company tesla is recalling hundreds of thousands of vehicles in the u. s. more than 320000 models, model 3 and model why cars with possible 40 tail lights are effected? the company says it has no reports of any accidents related to the problem. former us present donald trump has hit out at the decision to appoint a special counsel to oversee to us justice department investigations. jack smith will lead the inquiry into trumps or ledge efforts to overturn the 2020 election results and into his handling of classified document stopped leaving office id. so castro has more a special counsel investigation means the federal government criminal probes into former president donald trump will have a new boss that will be jack smith, a former top justice department attorney,

currently working for the international criminal court at the hague. smith will return to washington as special counsel to take over the investigations into trumps efforts to overturn the 2020 election results and trump handling of national security documents. after he left office, the special council will have day to day autonomy in the ongoing cases. taking the investigation out of the justice department's normal chain of command us attorney general merrick garland said, given trump's announcement this week, that he's entering the 2024 presidential race as special counselor is the only way to lessen the appearance of a conflict of interest stolen but based on recent developments, including the former president's announcement that he is a candidate for president in the next election. and the sitting president stated intention to be a candidate as well. i have concluded that it is in the public in rest, to appoint

a special counsel. this horrendous abuse of power is the latest of a long series of which us started a long time ago. his belief in american strength and his commitment to american speaking from a moral law gala hours after the special council announcement, trump accused the bite and administration of political attack. the corrupt and highly political justice department just appointed a super radical left special council. better referred to as a special prosecutor. this is a rig deal just as the 2020 election was rigged, and we can't let them get away with it. we can't do it. we cannot let this happen. dork ok, the white house has consistently declined to discuss investigations involving trump abide and spokesperson said the president had not been involved in the decision to appoint a special counsel. it might not have been strictly necessary at this early stage, but merrick garland is a, by the books kind of attorney general,
