less than 24 hours before the start of the world. cup and cutter were the host nation, playing ecuador, and the opening match the head of footballs well, governing body has chosen the eve of the tournament. to hit out at critics, at the pre competition news conference, free for president johnny and fantine defended the treatment of migrant workers. saying europe should not be giving what he called moral lessons thought sagal of the migrant workers. as 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 and the last 3000 years around the

world. we should be apologizing for next 3000 the us before starting to give moral lessons to people. this doesn't mean that we shouldn't point at what 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 silent, it's just hypocrisy maurice as well on the fif, achieves frustration that the criticism marquetto while 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 katha won 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 the 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 in katha 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 up a tournament that might give extra pressure for these players as well. well, the 1000000 fans are expected in cut out for the tournament when supporters arriving from all over the world, including cat, his opponents in that opening match, ecuador, sorry, heritage has been meeting some of them at their has had that international effort. some of the 1300000 football fan 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 and seen or i've been speaking to mexican funds. i've spoken to some salvage 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 excited to have john, you said your name, my name is dan and you, i'm, that is on how long is it taken for you to get here?

i mean, it was real low flight. it 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 monday and then we had to travel to buddy. then we have our flight and we just landed. and you just landed with traditional ecuador in muscle. is that right? yeah. these are travicia a mass made by like typical people for my country. so we're very happy to be here representing 17000000 people of my country. now, i'm assuming that 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 a lunching of these tournaments and we're so happy we're so excited. so we really hope we can make like to morrow. good game. and we're hoping and looking forward to win tomorrow's game. and it start, it 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, but 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're so happy to be here. so we decided to sing a song already because so from our country we look hard. okay, well let's hear it. i 000000 . 7 0. 6 0, i know we've been receiving, hey,

of all the people that are arriving there are really getting into the group of the walls carpet in this airport in particular, they've had a massive expansion and they say that they all ready for the $1300000.00 football fans are due to arrive was, was, there's noisy ecuador supporters making a long trip to the middle east from the south american nation. that's huge interest back home or latin america editing this union has more from the court city of going to keep an open market in why a key where people are preparing to dress for the world cup. they're ordinarily excited about it. they say that they know that the eyes of the world will be on their national team in the opening match of the world cup. that's the 1st time that that's ever happened in ecuador doesn't usually make it to the world cup. but this, they say that everything could change especially this year because they have a very good team, a lot of very, very young players, one of them both subtle black, that in fact, has been nicknamed the black. messy. why yaki

ecuador is largest city. there's a frenzy to obtain the national teams jersey before they sell out all over the phone. every ecuador is a fanatic about football walk over here. this woman confesses, she's buying a small one for her dog. huh. football fever has taken over a 100 cars regarding to win by one mill. a 12 year old jeremy disagrees. yes. okay, and let them know. i think that in the 1st half will tie, but in the 2nd half we'll whim to nil. thanks to cancel a platter. he's referring to ecuadorian football. idle gonzalo bladder, who like almost the entire team, grew up in poverty, gallagher, i'm going from 22 year old platter nowadays for spain's rail via the lead, and has bought his family, this new house where he keeps many of his trophies, the one. when joe ne, blacks whites mulattoes from the mountains to the coast,

we will become like one like brothers leather. back in his old neighbourhood. they haven't forgotten him. madeline is shows us a photo of platter with her grandson and says he's an inspiration for other boys. so they don't turn to drugs and crime. 2 weeks ago the government declared a state of emergency and a curfew here. and why akil and to other provinces because of uncontrollable gang violence. because of security concerns, local officials have had to cancel a huge fan fest that they plan to host all the same ecuador and all over guayaquil are preparing for the big day. even the gangs have hauled for an unofficial truce to allow people to think of nothing else but the game. a true ecuador has never come close to winning a world cup. but people young and old, tell us that this time, they're sure their team will take them further than ever before. we're at war. well,

i can tell you, the jerseys are starting to run out here in this stall, pretty soon. in fact, this is going to look like one huge yellow branch, the people that buy a keel. and i had a pretty tough time over the last couple of years. first, there was the pandemic. then the rise in crime and now the state of emergency precisely during the world cup. but they are excited. none the less, and they're going to be at least 2 impromptu fan 1st being organized by football clubs in the city, one in the north and one in the south where we're expecting thousands of people to gather. and they say, hopefully do or celebrate the victory over guitar in the opening match. ukraine's national football team just missed out on qualifying for the welcome. as were a challenge reports from your pin just outside keith. for many young people, football is a welcome distraction from the war. when russian troops closed in on the key of supper, of ear pin in february,

searcy and arena left their apartments and fled. it was april before russia abandoned its push on cave and the family ventured home again. glen, this is the bottom all this up on was missing of greeting when we return, so we found a burnout kitchen and a shall department. here other remains of a cottage there went through 2 balls, but fortunately did not catch fire or in warner what the king of the place, his uninhabitable. but others had it worse as a doll had the door. yep. j, as in the just before and pin was liberated, one of the neighbors was killed and we weren't allowed to bury him immediately. his body lay next to the other, captured people for several days. and it was 3 days later before he was buried in the yard rebuilding has begun, but help him still bears deep scars at a mortar damage. sports club saggy is back to his job teaching kids football this year, assailable that mr. on he tells me these boys have been through hell,

like him, many lost their homes and fled. but through the trauma and the turmoil, football was a constant. another course, us one. what all of them will get his them and they believe, or wherever they are, the boys look for bullies. use their relief in a way 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, but all of them and their goal 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 traumatized and water and country back together. and the kids know who they're supporting ingle and my favorite is spain. my favorite teams in my for countries, portugal who rory challenz to 0. yep. and ukraine. united kingdom, mr. send more ad defenses to ukraine. $125.00 anti aircraft, guns and technology to combat drones. you can new prime minister where she's not made the pledge on the flying visit to keith is 1st, it's becoming leader. why? his welcomed our present residents keep turn house has more from keep 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 boris johnson, who became the 1st foreign leader to visit keith in the early months of the war, he had a street named after him, boris 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 repairing a package of support for the $60000000.00 worth of military aid being offered by britain to ukraine, including in particular, anti aircraft guns and radar and technology were told to ward off attacks by drones. and that's particularly important because after 2 waves of aerial bombardment by russia just this week, 6 since october, mr. lansky 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 has been another milestone in the newly recaptured ukrainian city of house. on the 1st train arriving from the capital keefe in more than 9 months, families are being reunited as the city gradually attempts to get back to normal after the russian occupation aid supplies. and i also beginning to arrive in large numbers. oh michaels from sherry for bolt. i hundreds of people scrambled to space as they wait to take anything being handed to then. i was desperate. the months the young and old gathered in the main square in the city, of course, on a woman, hands a baby to a woolen tear as she struggles in the crowd. all the good donated clothes, toys, food 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. officials say russians destroyed critical infrastructure before retreating earlier this month. there's no running water, electricity, or central heating. for many, life is hard, but the nightmare is over. preferably in scope as it's doing it. what scared us most was a prospect of someone who ratting you out for having a pro ukrainian position. you be taken to a prison? what is that? 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 plotters 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 rain as ukraine's forces move into villages like these. they are ready to find evidence of any war crimes like they did in butcher cart 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 brought the all up. we started to examine the dam. there was a tillery, and more to shelling. many vehicles were destroyed, civilians died russia next the region of course on, along with 3 others in september, pledging to defend them with all available military means. but now ukrainian troops see the a here to stay. when we consume sharif algebra,

as what war had during the hours or news are north, korea's leader takes his daughter to a ballistic missile launch y. argentina. star player was training alone just 3 days before the opening world claim ah negotiate as at the cop $27.00 talks in egypt could be close to a breakthrough over an issue that is dominated and divided this year's climate change summit. it is a considering a final deal over whether rich nations should compensate poor countries that have been hit by climate disasters. the creation of the loss and damage fund has been sticking point to the, to a conference, leading to an extra day of negotiations. text has to be approved by nearly $200.00 hunters attending the summit. the outcome is seen as a test of global resolve to fight climate change. even as the war and ukraine and

soaring prices distract international attention. the world is watching. time is not on our side. we must, all right to the occasion. all must show the necessary flexibility from what i think that that is equal to satisfaction in all quarters. but in a vast majority of the parties, there was a receptive 80 to the basis upon which those texts have been formulated. and the feeling that they do reflect a balanced approach. how do you thing is head of global political strategy at climate action network international. he joins us now live from michelle and shake, thanks so much for being with us. so what's your understanding of how close they are now to deal? thank you very much for having me. we are with the close of the deal. in fact, the fixed on lots and damage has been agreed because the negotiations are still on mitigation and other text to cover text. that's why the, this isn't,

has not been approved in the plenary and that's what we are going to be in car. so what, what, what are the sticking points? just spell them out for us, but we're still waiting to 1st supposed to come through. so right now the discussion is happening on mitigation in terms of what kind of procedures can be set and then so that we can have better reporting on mitigation. but also discussion on how we can stand then the language on equity, which means how rich countries need to take the shuttle responsibilities and provide finance so that the burden is not passed on to developing countries. so the mitigation text is being finalized and i think we are very close to finalizing that as well. but the lawson damage text was finalized a couple of hours ago. and so can you tell us how that will work last memory in broad terms? sure, so in fact, this is going to be a landmark, the ones that is adopted. we have been waiting for the last 30 years,

the new 30 years ago in 1991. that there are going to be climate impacts which are already logged in because of the pleasing temperature. but there was no system that was created under the u. n. to help people who are losing their homes, farms, and income, and the current system mockumentary and it is insufficient. and it's under stress to respond to the increasing intensity and frequency of climate impacts. so this one was absolutely needed to scale up financing to help people recover. so imagine how of the saw how to fix pictures of flooding in focus on, in niger area. and currently, you know, hundreds of thousands of people out on the move in somalia. so there are impacts would be bad, but this system under un climate change was not able to respond because there was no fund to help such people. but, but now this fun being agreed, we will be able to respond to the needs of people who are already facing climate

emergency. what about progress, particularly on phasing out fossil fuels? how would you assess that? so that has been a bit disappointing. so the text is still being finalized and we are still hearing one little countries demanding that we should be mentioning all fossil fuels. currently, the text only is a copy based off what we got in glasgow. so it only mentions phase out of all of it at gold enough, you should subsidies for fossil fuels and not oil and gas. the reality is that more investments are happening on oil and gas extraction is increasing in africa. so we would like to see all fossil fuels, oil, gas, and call being phased out, equitably if we want to have a chance of staying below $1.00 degree warming. and how significant is the progress towards kind of restarting negotiations between china and the u. s. been towards

what you think might happen in the long run. we need both us and china on the table . somehow we have seen that things have been largely positive. we have not seen that tension between us and china disrupting climate talks. so that has been good for climate talks overall, but their leadership is absolutely needed to make sure that we go much farther up, particularly in phasing out of fossil fuels and also promoting the newman energy around the world. tell me how much it does is all of this at risk. and if the global economy continues to take a downturn, the risk is bad because the investments are going to go down. but when it comes to the current energy crisis, you know what? we don't call it energy crisis. we call it awesome fuel prices. suppose the cost of renewables have gone down dramatically. so in fact, this is

a good time to make investments in the field of renewable energy to make sure that this sector grows and we are able to move from fossil those because the inflation that we are facing right now is the energy. so in fact, this is a good opportunity for us to make sure that the investments happening and then it will energy to deal with the climate crisis, but also that the energy crisis and the longer how do you say thank you very much indeed for taking the time to talk to a thank you. thank one nation that's bearing the brunt of climate change is madagascar. the south of the country is struggling to cope with a hunger crisis that the un blames on climate change. but others argue is down to bad governance and poverty. $334000.00 people in the hall. she region facing emergency levels of food insecurity, according to the well food program. back to backdrops since 2019 and devastated agriculture. putting desperate people to eat locusts rule cactus fruit,

and while leaves nearly 479000 cases of acute malnutrition forecasts in the south, and se between may 2022 and april next year. the effects on children's growth and health irreversible in september, the world food program warned the situation deteriorate across almost all of southern madagascar this month, leaving more than $2000000.00 people food insecure. the clock reports from iraq or in southern madagascar. when crops consistently failed, you take what you can find. who cares if normally only cattle lead characters and boiled up, it fills a gap for a while to nipple. they had only zonati and it had been an hour. poor dick, she, she, the village is in a very bad situation. no food, no water i. 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 ah, in the regional capital of amber von bay,

a woman has brought a 7 month old daughter to hospital after she became seriously ill with diarrhea and vomiting. to her name is sarah. i that i have the i live on the now i cannot get them in every day. it was the pick up along the road. like with cactus fruits. i'm exhausted and i just can't breastfeed my baby because i'm so hungry. i have nomic in my breast now, if there is no food, we just like water and slip in here in the malnutrition unit, they're preparing for 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 harvester on food. there's a lack of rainfall we expect cyclones to start appearing sometime in the new year. and so this is the time and 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,

it's not that the food isn't there in above always market, you wouldn't think times are hard, but these goods are mostly imported into the region and spiraling prices, push them well out of reach of the poor. hundreds of thousands across madagascar depend on outside support from the likes of water aid in the world food program. here the government is delivering fertilizer and seeds to farms and they need all the help they can get. but it has no rain, no mel to fertilizer will help. empty melodic is on a deed made to hoola. our soil is fertile. but when there's no rain, things out this cassava die. i think in the future it will be a desert hair. the, i think the next generation will have nothing to do that will die yolanda. now the un call the family here, back in 2021. the 1st 5 men cause in the world, certainly by climate change, but a lot of people disagree with that. they say it's down to poor governance and to

poverty. the tree for 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 my de 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 hon. nick clark al jazeera iraq. he was here alive from london, still ahead. our syrian refugees and took here a worried about the future. how the political rise of a popular rapper could change nipples. next, government and teams continue to arrive in cutter with the world cups. lowest right side. gonna score in high in the star stakes. ah.

hello there. it's very, very wintry across europe at the moment as a cold snap takes hold, bringing some snow in icy conditions to the very northward. seeing those slip further south with temperatures plunging down as they do not remains largely unsettled across southern areas of europe. wind is the story here. we've got some warnings out for northern areas of spain stretching across to the valley. eric's effect in corsica and sardinia and southern areas of ins is really where we are seeing the worst of the wet weather. we've got low pressure that's going to move across the adriatic, taking some of the shop. a thunder storms on to grease as well as the balkans are a bit of a winter mix to some of the places like romania and that winter weather pushing up towards ukraine and onwards to western russia. the snow picks up across more central areas as well. we have got some avalanche warnings out across the outset on

monday and it's turning robin nasty as you can see for spain and portugal. thanks to rounds of rain that are pulling in from the atlantic. it's going to turn while the wet across britain and island windy as well. but to the east of this, it remains rather cold, lots of snow coming in for southern areas of finland as well as sweden and norway stuck on seeing one degrees celsius. so rather chilly that to weather update. ah, a korean reporting to the well growing here. one journalist documents life beyond the headlines. ah, but certain stories can change us cleaning the easiest previous story. well, i mean, it knows the history. it turned into what a unique journey into what it means to be human. the things we keep

a witness documentary on al jazeera. a new series follows footballs from 6 countries, hoping to make it to cut out 2022. my dinning was to be a basketball player in the world. now at each year the next episode made 3 world comp hopefuls from iraq by sacrifice, a lot of seeing a lot of days before my family. i wouldn't do that to play most of the world cup dream. iran on al jazeera lou ah, top stories here in missouri kickoff for the 2022 football world cup less than

a day away fee for president johnny infant. tino has accused western critics of hypocrisy. when it comes to cutter, he defended the treatment of migrant workers, saying europe should not be giving what he called moral lessons. negotiators at the cop $27.00 talks in egypt could be close to a breakthrough over an issue that's dominated undivided issues, climate change summit. he does a considering a final dealer with rich nations, should compensate poor countries that have been hit by common disasters. to political leaders in malaysia, claiming victory in the general election saying they have the support to form a government. but official poll results from the election commission show a hung parliament opposition leader anwar ibrahim says his coalition as enough support for lawmakers allowing saturday's vote. his rival and form of premier were you didn't at your scene, also claim to win another form appear. martin mohammed has lost his seat,

is his 1st electoral defeat in 53 years. archery has more from chronological. now at surveys had largely predicted there is no one party that can claim majority and parliament. no one party conformed government on its own. and this means that the smaller parties are in the position to play kingmaker and i expect negotiations and horse trading would have already started. that the next logical step though is for the national front to work together with the national ally. and again, these are parties that were already working together when parliament was dissolved and if they continue to work together, then it means status quo would be maintained. now this means that politicians in the national front who have been tainted with corruption, well continued to remain powerful. yes, some of the may have lost that parliament. he seats in this election, but they still hold positions of power within the party. and if the party is back in power and it means these politicians would remain powerful. now the other

implication is it appears, voters have continued to vote along racial and religious lines in multicultural, malaysia. the national front and the national alliance are parties that champion special rights and privileges for the malay ethnic group. the majority group in malaysia, they form about 70 percent of the population. and it appears votes as have largely rejected the opposition's proposal that the government provide assistance based on needs rather than res. so it appears malaysia will continue to be divided along racial and religious lines. and the 3rd implication is political stability may still continue to elude malaysia, the national front and the national alliance have been working together for the last 2 years. but it is a partnership that's been beset by in fighting. and there's no reason to believe that a 2nd attempt at this partnership will be any smoother. the 1st time north korean leader kim jong own has revealed his daughter to the world. her existence had never been published. he confirmed before the photos show the 2 hand in hand inspecting

a ballistic missile observer say it suggests kim is emboldened by his advancing nuclear program or friday north korea test, fod a why song? 17 intercontinental ballistic missile. robert kelly is an associate professor at pusan national university. he says the decision to release the images suggests kim's daughter may become north. korea's next leader, north korea 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 were passed to a blood relative. 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 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 news, pretty obese. obviously he's a heavy smoker and this is how it's by the pathway to from health crisis, from his alcoholism. and so my guess is that they're sort of concerned inside the regime that once it gets old enough, they need to walk in the picture is gone. and so that i'll be with us as leaders from the asia pacific economic cooperation block have called for an end to the warn ukraine. and pledge to boost trade wrapping up a well wind week of diplomatic summits in asia that have been overshadowed by geopolitical rivalries. thailand hosted the apex summit right off to s e n and g 20 members. how talks in cambodia and indonesia. and while this has been seen as a success, it may not have benefited thailand. in the wait hope to return reports from bangkok, world leaders arrived to meet thailand, king at the apex summit in bangkok, the government has been keen to benefit from the prestige of hosting a global event on the scale of to the isolation of the coven. 19 pandemic. as he

handed over the chair of the block, the prime minister said unity was vital in tackling the challenges ahead. epic and i knew that the brim part is the apec region. in the midst of an important transitional period, we all need to maintain a sense of unity and must be able to manage the ever changing climate conditions. pylon is ready to seamlessly cooperate with the u. s. in driving to work with apec going forward. the closing statement recognizes the need to intensify efforts to address rising inflation, food security, and climate change. it says most notions condemned the war in ukraine, but also concedes that apec is not the forum to resolve security issues. although mostly behind closed doors, the meetings on the side lines of the summit seemed to be productive in addressing rising regional tensions. but have the hosts benefited. the last time thailand

chaired apec in 2003, the meeting was seen as the starting point in a dramatic economic and diplomatic revival. this time color of aftermath is really below radar. as being disregarded, you know, is not really a player in the region. so that, that, that strategy should have been to regain a regional role for timer or using apec as a, as a means as a channel i occasion, but that's not happening. and that's been reflected by the tight security in bangkok to ensure no descent was ed publicly. the apex summit has concluded with our major incident will be a relief for the ty government who are expecting, protested to try and interrupt proceedings. particularly for the residents of the ty capital, we've had to live with their city locked down the past 4 days. tony chang al, to 0 banker. nearly 4000000 syrian refugees live in turkey, ear after fleeing their countries civil war. but many say they worried about the
