one place where we have seen rather abnormal heat is the korean peninsula, with temperatures in pyongyang, and sol, about 5 to nearly 10 degrees above the average. but there's going to be a change to come on monday. we've got wet weather and more cloud wintery mix as well blowing its way further. is that going to knock temperatures down across the peninsula? now, much of the wet weather has been plaguing japan. you can see it start to move out by the time we get in some monday, some recovery for cities like tokyo. and it's a similar story for much of the south of china. it's largely fine and dry situation here as it is for much of south and central asia, up in the north pakistan and india sing bone dry conditions. it's down in the very southeast that we are seeing that wet and windy weather pull out of the bay of bengal. chenise going to these very heavy downpours and storms in the days, the head, much dryer. however, for that southwest corner for places like carola, a bit of cloud coming in, but look at that sunshine for bangladesh and me and mark as well as nepal. by

monday that should weather update to with sponsored by categories. hm. mm. and talk to al jazeera, we also do believe that women of august, that was somehow abandoned by the international community. we listen, we have a huge price for the war against terrorism. what's going on? so money we meet with global news makers and talk about the stories that matter on al jazeera. ah ah,

the watching, i'll just hear a mind to now about top stories this hour. it's now less than 16 hours before kickoff for the 1st ever will come from the middle east, or the $1000000.00 fans are expected to chair on their teams of the next 4 weeks. first game on sunday, between host country cattle. inequity fee for president johnny infant tina was accusing western critics of hypocrisy. when it comes to cutoff, it affected the treatment of migrant workers saying you should not be giving pulled moral lessons from a u. s. president donald trump has a twitter account again, the company's new owner either asked says he's reinstating trump to the social media website. announcement came soon after an online poll on the platform, it showed a narrow majority wanted trump back masika. acknowledge that automated bots were voting, but didn't say how often trump was permanently suspended from the social media servicing that 2021 for inciting violence. but he has not committed to returning to

the platform. you were getting a big load to also go back on twitter. i don't see it because i don't see any reason for it. they have a lot of problems at twitter. you see what's going on at bay, make it. it may not make it, but as it problems are incredible, the engagements or negative. and you have a lot of bots and you have a lot of fake accounts, which i think they should get on. but true social is taken the place where a lot of people, and i don't see them going back on to twitter already. jo castro joins us now from washington. d. c. and heidi, this all comes amid rumors. there might be more layoffs that twitter was the latest . that's right, harry. and as you just heard from the former president trump, he used this moment to promote his own copycat twitter side truth social. but the rumors are that more fire rings or layoffs are in store, possibly as soon as monday, according to reports,

this could be targeting the sales department of twitter, which is following a to multi this week where we thought we saw more than a 1000 of the companies, engineering and operations side employees take a buyout and leave the company which seems to have caught its new owner. musk blindsided this new pull that must announce that started yesterday. and reports are some 15000000 votes were actually submitted. and musk announced in the weight of his own that it was 52 percent who supported trumps in reinstatement versus 48 percent, who opposed it. but the big question though is whether these votes came from each individual user or whether they could have been bots. and experts have way in saying that given the loss of so many operational stab at twitter,

that it is entirely possible that some of these votes, if not many, may have come from bots, which would be ironic since that is the thing that mosque most complaint about prior to his twitter purchase, but of course the, the big political headline in question still to be answered is whether, you know, trump will actually go back to twitter. and as you just heard him saying, he happened to be already scheduled for an event this evening. speaking before the republican jewish coalition, he seemed to be pretty cool about this announcement. hence says he has no intention of returning to twitter. hardy. thanks for that. honey jo. country live there in washington dc. now after long delay and negotiations that lasted late into the nights, the un climate agency has published a draft deal text for corporate 27 climate summit in egypt. gay sions had stole that, trying to agree on a target,

before has had 13 different administrations in the past 16 years. and one of the low reports from kat mandy, a record number of independent candidates, are promising something different. a last ditch effort to voters soon, sammy joined supporters on a bike ride around cartman, do or he's running for a seat in parliament will start at any blood even when it goes to stems. have seized many times, but people's circumstances. evans improved. that isn't, is dec, i use 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 poles in may. a number of candidates from major political parties last to independence. one of the biggest winters wrapper and now mir cartman, do berlin shaw? the growing movement is being referred to a subaru in effect. no one is out of the thing we need young leaders. the or

leaders haven't done anything. we want to give the young people the chance error. 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 candid is buying for 100. 65 directly elected parliament seats of that number more than 800 are running us independence. that's to record for elections that for 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 places their, 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 as paying lip service, lack of been. so what i'm offering, as things that have been pending, the people would have been satisfied if their constitutional and fundamental rights of education held employment. we had met no matter who wins. analysts say these elections have proven that there is hope for change. it may not happen now, but there are signs a new generation of leaders could govern nepal one day. a barnabees live for us now in a cath, mandy, a bobby. we saw that in your report, the clamor for new blood in government, but how much progress are they lucky to make in these elections? while, as you saw there, there is a lot more citizen participation. there's a lot more awareness. people are able to speak out,

especially with the advent of social media. there is an online online campaign called know not again where voters are urging our voters to vote for new blood. they're saying that these old guards have been making promises for decades now, but they have not been able to fulfill those promises. and so they want a new basis in government, but at least are saying that this may have gained some traction on the internet as well. as on the ground in the cities, but this is not gain traction in the countryside where most folders are. and so, boulders are likely going to still go the way of traditional politicians. these grand old parties are so well entrenched in communities in the rural areas. they have well oiled machineries and so they have what they call this here, legacy voting, where community leader is what community leaders say. whole community leaders say

they should vote who elders in their family, say they should vote, that's what the, what they're going to go for. and so these, these elections are still likely going to go the way of the grand old parties, the old alliances that have been formed in the past decade or so. but emily's are saying that this is a good start for, for the new blood. and it's going to take a few more elections before we can see real change in this country. yes, you mentioned the votes, is that what are the main concerns that well, when you look at the headlines in the past few days here in a paul, you see a sharp focus on what's being called the citizenship bill here. and this is, you know, there breaks it if you will, there immigration issue if you will. and people here are divided over that issue.

people who are living along the borders of a, between india and paul. they want the citizenship bill, because this will give citizenship to a lot of people there who were born. there have been living there who grew up there, but don't have the necessary papers to be called citizens. but people who are far away from the borders, they don't want this citizenship bill. but when you talk to people on the ground, this is not their main concern. their main concern still is the economy. the inflation rate has really gone up. it's about 9 percent right. now, here in, in the pall fuel prices have really gone up and so life is hard. and as i said, as i mentioned earlier, a lot of the promises that the old guards have been making have not been fulfilled . so they really want these basic services to get to them. education, health care,

employment. carrie. okay. barnaby. learn live 1st and catherine. do thank you for that or is she sooner because it visited ukraine for the 1st time since becoming britton's prime minister. he met president. let him as an end skin keith sooner pledged his government's continued support, including an air defense aid package with $60000000.00. 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 for the 1st time north korean leader kim jong and has revealed his daughter to the world. her existence had never been publicly confirmed before. voters had emerged, sharing the 2 hand in hand inspecting

a blister miss hop on friday to young. testify the why song? 17 missile, or robert kelly is an associate professor axis on national university in the south korea. he says that decision to release the images suggest kim's daughter may become north. korea's next leader, north cruz monarchy. right. it's ruled by the kim family and there have 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. 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 away it's worth pointing out that you had health care in the past and he's pretty obese.
