tournament. johnny santano has defended the treatment of migrant workers, saying europe should not be giving what he calls moral lessons, sort saddle 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 hitting carter as well. of course, there are still things that don't work at the need to be addressed. but this more lesson giving me one silent. it's just hypocrisy al jazeera, as always, has more on the fever cheese, frustration that the criticism of kata. well, johnny and santana was very keen to get on the front foot with the media as this world cup is about to kick off. and that's because of the criticism that katha and fif of had in the last 12 years since cat r one, the bid to host the tournament as some of those issues the rights of migrant workers. they're working conditions or whether gay people will be welcomed in qatar during this woke up given local laws and john infancy know said that they

absolutely were. and indeed his communications director, i spoke up said that he was gay and he stood behind thief his stance. now, in fontana sounded very frustrated at the level of the criticism of relentless criticism, and he said that, of course some of it is fair. but he said the only way for these problems to be worked out was to have the woke up and cutter and to engage with those issues here . and he said that much progress had been made. he also, as you might expect, begged people to now focus on the football, and that will be the focus on sunday. as kat are, the hosts kick off against ecuador at our bait stadium. there might be hope for cathy in that, even though this is their 1st woke up. no house nation has ever lost an opening match at the tournament. that might give extra pressure for these players as well.

why more than a 1000000 fans are expected in cat are for the 10 am in santa high right has been meeting some of them at ham at international airport. some of the 1300000 football fan have been arriving already before the walcott. you'll hear a lot the rabbit counting behind me. we've had lots of people arriving, especially from latin america 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 lands if they've come all the way from ecuador and they seem to be really. c excited to have john you said you on the yeah, my name is john and you i'm, that is on how long is it taken for you to get here? i mean, it was a long flight. they took around, let's say, more than 24 hours already because we had to make a lot of layovers. yeah. where it says, my brother came all the way from well or to mother and then we had to travel to buddy. then we have our flight here and we just landed. and you just landed with

traditional ecuador in muskets. is that right? yeah. these are the show me, like typical people for my country. so we're 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 ecuador. i'm assuming that's where you're going to be tomorrow. yes, we're going to go to more of game as, as well as the launching of these tournaments and we're so happy we're so excited to be here. we're really hope we can make like to morrow good game. and we're hoping and looking forward to win tomorrow's game and start as will come in in the best way. and i have one more question for you. what sorts of ecuador installed do you think you're going to be singing out the stadium to get all the ecuador in fans excited? i mean, we have, we have many by, we have chosen already one that he's among our favorites because he's my older brother. and we went together to rescue 2014. i was also in day and they will come

on their 20 in poland. 2019. and we are so happy to be here. so we decided to sing a song already because from our country we look hard. okay, well let's hear it. okay. oh, good. yeah. now again. oh, oh, oh, good. yeah. okay. now, i mean, that's happening that we've been receiving, hey, of all the people that are arriving are really getting into the group of the world . and in this, apple in particular, have had a massive expansion and they say that they all ready for the 1300000 football fans or g to arrive. okay, i'm calling on security expertise. miranda well to safeguard an estimated 1200000

fans. the defense ministry says it'll be the most secure. well happen, history, osama bin job. it reports from the may side, naval base, organ told are the sports don, maybe warfare calling and failing. why? the iranian seat worships, are docking in 6 countries have find up to be part of operation woke up shield for the fee for tournament thousands of soldiers, sailors, airmen will be contributing to a unique event which contact nature poses opportunities and challenges. i will be undertaking pet roles in the area or surrounding her. got married them. security is primarily the, establish the legitimacy, our identity of anything operating in the maritime environment, expand it, has a mission to safeguard her freedom of cease and treat her while are getting a conventional landa is metric that pottery in pakistan,

the ministries of defense have signed agreements to provide human resources and technical arrangements, including naval ships, quote, the security of the world cup we have been contributing to overall security of the fi, fine radio suspect we are contributed in m y with large contingent, we have contributed amadi and our dis, meditating company as well, pakistan has been a firm believer of an integrated approach in tackling the common traits out at sea . but as ministry of defense, as they are prepared for any relative and that preparedness comes from making sure they have security partners from all over the world with specialized expertise and experience cooperation will be operation world cup shield. over the years we have collaborated and cooperated with global security partners to ensure that we are prepared guitar is known to be one of the most safest and most peaceful countries

in the region. and it's maintains robust security system and infrastructure. and we would just like to reassure people that during the world cup they can feel safe while they enjoy the football. john, what 6 or 5 year over, although there seems to be no imminent threat, but the sailors on board focused on naval ships. the books say they're here and will be patrolling the seas around clutter in case there is a threat. and if there is one, they have a strategy to respond to it out of sight and out of mine is the military approach for this cup. but they want to assure football friends that every possible security aspect is being taken care of for the 1st will come in the middle east, from a job without a 0 at the mercy naval base to malaysia. now, where preliminary results are coming in from the general election, 3 main lines is a bombing for power. it's been called the most competitive election in malicious history. the country has been plagued by political instability with 3 prime

ministers in the last 4 years. as bringing joins to we now's live flooring. so the of 1st official results are coming in how i think smoking well as surveys had suggested that this election is just too close. does no one party that can really claim a comfortable victory. neither no one party. the 3 main contenders and not one is able to claim that they have a clear majority in parliament, and this is with around half the seats in parliament counted that $222.00 seats in parliament. the official results from the election commission with a 109 seats counted doesn't put any pot, may of the main blocks ahead. now there are some surprises, veteran politician mahatma mohammed who served as prime minister of this country twice, who came out of retirement to join the opposition and the last election and let them the victory has lost his seat. not only that he did not hold enough seats to

actually he lost, he didn't even manage to get 18 of the boats that were cost. and so he's not only lost his seat, but his lost his deposit. he set up a new party on his own. it was considered by many ambulance as a fringe party. ringback and they were not expected to win any fees and true to analysts predictions they have not won any seat. now that's some good, really big margins for the alliance of hope. that's the main opposition. but those seeds and those big trees with big margins tend to be in the urban areas. so it points to perhaps a rural and of, and divide in these elections. what are the implications of these initial results points? so the initial results have the alliance of hope likely ahead ahead of the other 2 . it's 2 main contenders, which is the alliance, the national alliance and the national front. now these 2 groups are outrun

nationalists, and they're also parties that champion and promote malay majority. right? the malays of the dominant, i should say they are the majority ethnic group in this country, the all muslims, they make up about 70 percent of the population. and they have special rights and privileges and the national front and the national alliance promote and say they will preserve these rights as opposed to the alliance of hope, which what say they want to offer assistance based on needs rather than on race. now the implications of these results are that it, these past 2 parties, the national front and the national alliance all to work together. again, this would essentially mean this is the same government as previously. which means that politicians who are tainted with corruption charges, some of whom may have lost that parliamentary seats, but they still hold positions within that party. and if that party comes back into power, that means that they will start in a way and be willing, powerful science. thank you for that. trying to re reporting their life from

outside on a lamp or in malaysia. still head on al jazeera as millions go hungry in madagascar we look at what all who is responsible and will tell you who made a special appearance, where the north korean medium is effective in the thickness side. ah sunday sees the kick off of the will camp in cutter, and a change of weather at the moment was a line of cloud across, which is i think when you called the wind to front, it's going south. it probably won't produce any rain or any thunderstorms at all, but it will ins, juices wind, which is quite a strong and dusty wind. at 1st it looks quite almost $32.00 before the day's out, temperatures will drop and that will be then the more permanent thing. the forecast . widow hobbin rather windy, dusty sunday. and then with that about 27 or 28 by day high teens by night. and

although the wind is breezy on monday, it tends to die down, and you've got 5 with a bit of a hazy atmosphere, but generally fine weather, of course, and that's true of most the rapier begins. there are few shouts briefly. you may see them there in u e o man is that cold front at which front disappears. then we're left with pretty much what you'd expect could be a little bit warmer and eastern beds, particularly these winds come in on tuesday or wednesday. we'll see tensions lift, for example, all way from norden. egypt probably up to sudden turkey. but it's nothing in the sky. the rain in central africa is still fairly heavy in tons. the parts of kenya were admittedly india, congo. but the biggest dime paused more recently have been further south. and that's coming back again. i think the eastern side or south africa in places with every footstep moving in the sink with the world to bring health equity for all

to be together again with the ones far apart with transformation and collaboration . indonesia urges and leave the world in moving forward as one culver together recover stronger. lou ah, they're watching al jazeera live from doha reminder about top stories. with kickoff for the 2022 football world have just a day away features present. johnny valentino is accusing a western critics of hypocrisy. when it comes to contact,

bombardment by russia just this week 6 since october mr. zelinski 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, in 7 ukraine aid supplies are being delivered to people in the city of care song, which was re taken from russia this month. a train from the capital keith has arrived, reuniting families after months apart, most people fled the city after the russian invasion in and now looking to move back. when we called film sharif reports, i guess hundreds of people scrambled to space as a way to take anything being handed to death. for the month. the young and old gathered in the main square in the city of car saw a woman hans, a baby to a just as she struggles in the crown or the global donated clothes, toys,

food will diapers, and other supplies all are needed in a city. now back under ukrainian control. after 9 months of occupation, 2 children help this man carry a sack of potatoes as he struggles with the load. official se russians destroyed critical infrastructure before retreating earlier this month. there's no running water, electricity, or central heating. for many life is harm, but the nightmare is over. preferably in scope is easiest. what scared us most was a prospect of someone who ratting you out for having approve cleaning position. you be taken to a prison? well, if you could go outside and never come back, i was pregnant where the war started. the 1st trains since rushes invasion began in february, arrives and curse on from capital keith. it's flamboyant colors painted by low platters reflect

a mood of joy. and it's time for reunions. while this father is meeting his son for the 1st time in 8 months, but the shuster, although i feel happiness was huge happiness. i will shout out to the world and glory, take rain as you queen's forces move into villages like these. they are ready to find evidence of any war crimes like they did in boucher court give and other cities after russian patrol. the village of all extend that if girl was captured early on, it's been heavily mind. several people were reportedly killed by russian forces while trying to escape virtually, but it will be all up. we started to examine the dam. there was a tillery, and more to shelling. many vehicles were destroyed and civilians died. russia next the region of course on, along with 3 others, september sledging to defend them,

a male to female. so open daughter is actually the chosen one that would actually be service. i'm 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? me 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 it gets old enough, they need to work pictures on until that object assess serious st. use agency reports for sirian soldiers have been killed in israel. yes. rags, military posts in the central and western regions were hits, including in homes and the provinces of hammer and natasha. israel has been mounting attacks against iran backed forces deployed in those areas. kenneth, formerly to whom kenyata and wanders present. paul, her gamier, calling for a cease fire in easton democratic republic of congo fighters from the armed group.

army spokesman said that they hadn't been any sign of with withdrawal yet. and also that fighting is ongoing. on another front, it's 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 and do and we spoke to some of them. me walk out and get. i was in our village, 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 nearby, but no one could help me until i was brought here. or fed,

the 2 shall quadrille. much easy. 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 said 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 sanctioned 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. but people here waiting to see if this increased diplomatic activity is going to amount to any changes on the ground ahead of piece talk, which is due to resume in low on in and go las capital luanda. on monday, delegates from nearly 200 countries as crumbling to reach a climate deal at the comp 27, some 18 egypt. they're considering

a draft agreement to set up a fund to compensate countries worst affected by climate change. its creation has been a sticking point between reach and developing countries leading to an extra day of negotiations. while madagascar was a famine last year was said to be the world's 1st disaster induced by climate change. and many disagree with that assessment instead of blaming poverty and poor governments. either way, millions of people are facing accused hunger. i'll just here is nick craig, for some iran in southern madagascar. so when crops consistently failed, you take what you can find. who cares if normally only cattle in characters and boiled up? it fills a gap for awhile, mental li, hatton was as entity and it had been an hour. poor dick. she, she, the village is in a very bad situation. no food, no water. that is the biggest issue in this region. we need help to solve this

because people are living on cactus. that's all there is a general ha. in the regional capital of amber von bay, a woman has brought her 7 month old daughter to hospital after she became seriously ill with diarrhea and vomiting is 0. i home the i miss on the market. look at them in every day. it was the bigger up along the road, like with cactus fruits. yeah, i'm exhausted and i just can't breastfeed my baby because i'm so hungry. i have no mic in my pressing on. if there was no food, he just like water and slim in here in the malnutrition unit, they're preparing for a big influx in december and january. we're going into what is called the the lean season. so it's a time when it's very difficult for families to grow their own food, harvest their own food, there's a lack of rainfall we expect cyclones to start appearing sometime in the new year. and so in this is the time when families are really forced to forage for food. and so there are estimates that around $480000.00 children between now and february,

april of next year, may need to be treated for acute malnutrition. ah, not that the food isn't there, and i believe always market. you wouldn't think times are hard, but these goods are mostly imported into the region and spiraling prices pushed them well out of reach of the poor. hundreds of thousands across madagascar depend on outside support from the likes of water aid, the world food program. here the government is delivering fertilizer and seeds to farm and they need all the help they can get. but if there's no rain, no m l to fertilizer will help empty melodic is on a didn't need to who law our soil is fertile. but when there's no rain, things these cassava die, i think in the future it will be a desert hair. i think the next generation will have nothing really that will tie younger. now the un call the family here back in 2021 the 1st time and pause in the

world solely by climate change. but a lot of people disagree with that. they say it's down to poor governance and to poverty. the truth, i think it's a combination of all 3 climate change that it's wreaking havoc around the world, calling devastation here in madagascar. poverty, 90 percent of medic, gaskins. live in poverty and poor governance inside and outside the country. for the people though, it's all irrelevant for them these times simply known as katie, the hung that clark al jazeera iraq. and as always, is much more news on our website at al jazeera dot com. if very latest on the fif, a well kept 2022, which kicks off in cut out in less than 24 hours with is al jazeera and these.
