1:01 am
serene abu icloud plus coral co makes history of the world cup, beating spain, and becoming the 1st arab nation to advance the course of funds. ah, we begin with breaking news. christina fernandez, the coach, argentina's vice president of one of the country's most powerful politicians, has been sentenced to 6 years in prison. she's been found guilty of corruption in a $1000000000.00 fraud case. the highly charged trial has rattled argentina with our supporters protesting outside the court. and that's precisely where our correspond. theresa bo is in buenos aires. theresa. clearly an angry reaction there from her supporters. but what does this verdict mean for the vice president? and of course those that support well as you just,
1:02 am
this has been a highly charged trial. and just until a few minutes ago that was played with filled with christina kirschner supporters who came here to show their support for the current vice president of argentina. let's not forget cash nor was president of this country for a 2 years between 20072015. and now the vice president of argent tina prosecutors were seeking a 12 year imprison sentence and also banning her from holding any public office for life. while the fin terms that we heard today is banning her for at least 60 sentence for 68 in prison. but also binding her for being part of argentina political life for life. so this is something that has a set many of their supporters. we're still waiting to hear whether any type of demonstration will be, will be call for the next few days. what prosecutors are saying is that they have gathered enough proof poor to accuse vice president cursor of aggravated fraud,
1:03 am
of also leading what is known as a criminal organizations to grant public works contracts to a family friend. this is something that kirshner has denied if she has just been speaking to some of her photo or saying that she's been a since she has compared the tribune to a firing squad. she has said that she's being politically persecuted because the tribune in this country wants to prevent her from running for office in next few years. precedential election. so definitely this is a very divisive issue in this country. while there are many, many who support christina fernando, the cursor, there are many others who would like to see her present. and just precisely exactly how divisive is she because it is only of course, only a few months since she was the target of an assassination attempt. people appear to either love her or load her longer aren't in tina is right. night polarized between those who support christina fernandez, the christmas party, and those who know just 3 months ago, as you just mentioned,
1:04 am
christina, there was a target of fascination attend. that man came very, very close to her and put a gun close to her face. he is being charged with attempted murder, and there's also an ongoing investigation exactly of who was behind that. that's a situation there that happened just outside her house. it is a divisive issue, you know, and a face said before, while there are many in this country that continued to so quarter that believe that she's innocent, that accused of this country's judiciary, among them precedent for america fernandez of plotting to remove her from argentina's political life, there are many others who blame her for the current situation in this country, for the poverty rates for the exchange rate controls that affect this country's business sector, or r for the very high inflation that argentines are suffering right now, which is close to 7 percent each month, so most certainly this is something that affects her image. but at the same time,
1:05 am
christina hernandez acacia will have the possibility of appealing this and because she's likely to go to the supreme court. so it is unlikely that we're going to see christina fernando, the pain any time soon. all right, teresa, very loving were those areas many thanks for that. on the more breaking news now, former us president donald trump's company has been found guilty of tax fraud in new york. it has the legal woes facing trump as he campaigns for office again. well mike, hannah is in washington d. c. and mike, what does the verdict mean for the trump organization? firstly? well, it has major financial implications for the trump organization. the judge will rule on exactly what the find is going to be. the 2 senior executives who are found guilty earlier in terms of tax evasion, one of them advice will burg had made
1:06 am
a plea deal. he'll be serving some 5 months in prison. it's likely the other, the control of the trunk organization, jeffrey mckinney. he came before the grand jury and gave evidence, so he will not perceive any jail time at all, but it has another impact on the trump organization and that its ability to do work with bangs, for example. other companies, this is something that's obviously would impede impact very negatively on the name of the trump organization. so there's going to be that kind of rollover effect as well. and one must mention to that the trumping organization is facing a separate investigation by the new york district attorney that also has to do with a tax evasion. among other matters. and mike donald trump, himself is on trial. but what does this all mean for the man himself? and of course, his presidential hopes well on that particular aspect. prosecutors in
1:07 am
this case insisted that donald trump had full knowledge of the actions by his employees. however, as you correctly say, he was not on trial, but his organization was that being said, this is going to have a massive impact on donald trump himself. one must remember that he is facing a legal action possible legal action. in another case, most notably the justice department investigation into what he did with the documents that he took with him to morrow laga from the white house. and also in that investigation, the justice department is looking to what extent donald trump attempted to overturn the results of the 2020 election. so this decision today, a unanimous decision would appear by the jury is something that just adds on to the weight of legal woes that donald trump faces and a personal basis, as well as those legal woes faced by his organization. and it's just as well that
1:08 am
a lawyer for the organization said up to the trial, that of course we are going to appeal. so that is going to be in the works as well, yet another appeal possibly, should the judge allow it. so this will grind on for some time yet my kind of live in washington dc. many things now ukraine has apparently used a drone to attack an airfield in the russian border region of kursk. that's according to its governor. the strike early on tuesday caused a 5 and an oil storage tank brushes, defense ministry, excuse ukraine, of to attacks on monday. moscow says free service member kill, kill if there is yet to comment. mom and val has more of the russian reaction from moscow. the russian ministry of defense claims that ukraine is behind the 2 talks the cognitive, it's our basis southeast of moscow. on monday, it did not give details about whether these talks originated from ukraine or from inside russia. but everyone here can see this, this a significant development in this war allows because for the 1st time,

1:19 am
kick and spain's 2nd penalty was saved by cooper bono. and he emerged as morocco's hero saving spain's 3rd attempt. after he meets the score of the winning penalty for moscow green the score and the shoot out a historic moment for morocco as they reached the last 8 for the 1st time out of world fame back out the tournament in the round and 15 for the 2nd time in a row, alexia bryan watched with fans at the old port in doha. they were not only supporters from morocco, but also other countries backing the last remaining african help. oh, add a parent's
1:20 am
name to love the app. i'm saying. i'm a big side. next step for morocco, it's portugal, they booked their place in the last date within and found a quinn over switzerland. gotten salo ramos started the game ahead of chris john rinaldo and got the lead for portugal. in the 17th minutes, they were to up at the break when peppy sword over the swift defenders, the 39 year old becoming all this player to score in the world come knock at stitches. portugal kept up the pressure early in the 2nd half rose black. the 2nd
1:21 am
of the night before school was added by raphael get arrow to put the team in total control to win, pulled one back through men while a kanji their 1st knockout stage goal since 1954. but the driving continued ramos, completing his trip to this school concept is 67 minutes and an injury time. raphael leo made it 6 months with the final nail in switzerland. coffin, portugal going through to the quarter finals for the 1st time since 2006 on that occasion. they finished for let's get some reaction from our analysts water and go and asher kani geisha and asha. let's start with you. morocco flying the flag for the arab nation, as for the continent of africa. yeah, absolutely. it's incredible to see markers succeed then come this far because i've been preparing for this moment for many years. they've invested millions of dollars
1:22 am
into, you know, growing and developing football and really you talk about the impact that has on the arab world and africa. it's just because, you know, to tell you when you grew up as a young child and you see people that look like you, making it, you know, to the quarter finals and a chance of making it to the semi finals and perhaps who knows, go and challenge for the, for the trophy, it means so much. and just in a video of the king of morocco mohammed the 6, you know, on the streets of morocco wearing the jersey. i don't think i've ever seen the king, you know, not in tradition aware. and, you know, sitting up somewhere on the throne in morocco, but to see him, you know, go and celebrate with the citizens. it been so much, not just for the arab world and africa, but also for the people of morocco. if you got any institution in morocco, sports institution, it will have the, you know, the, the picture of the 1986 score that made it to the round of 16. but now the squared has and their place. the data will be up there alongside that script, specially a proud moment. one. know rinaldo for portugal, but do you think they were better?
1:23 am
yeah, they were, i mean this not only the score proved it, but the way they played proved it because it could have been more than that. that's what even is even scary about this match. and not only that, today we got to see how deep portugal are in that position. i mean it's, it's not just, it's is in gonzalo, but being able to come in and do what he did with it was hattrick. don't other family comes in and just actually dominates in the year, but the cuff i allow comes in later on and scores after christian roller comes in. so now we're around to find himself in a piece position where maybe i'm not that not that it. we are priceless or not that invaluable to the squad. there's other players that can fill in if i'm not around, but yet you still do have chris general all those that he's in the whole. okay, so who do you think is, can i get 3 in the quarter finals? is it portugal or morocco? top one kind of kinda that heart mind kind of thing. yeah,
1:24 am
on right now is that the mentality of morocco but also the logic of saying hey, portugal is a better side. portugal does have the pedigree. you can't go wrong with pedigree. so i, i would have to have to say for sure. okay, just quickly from you who do you think america hasn't the marker? ok. all right, well see, so plenty to look forward to here and cats are on our team. we'll have it all covered right here on al jazeera, with the democratic republic of congo. as government says, 272 civilians were killed in a massacre in the east and 10 of cache last week. the government blames the killings on the m. 23 armed group, widely understood to be backed by neighboring bewanda. this is another round of peace talks wraps up. welcome web reports. armed groups from democratic republic of congo, met in nairobi for peace talks. absent with m $23.00 widely understood to be

1:26 am
unless the problem of foreign armed groups and foreign fact on good is resolved. and unless the congress, these army can actually protect their communities, there's no way that they will lay down their weapons. joomla moved the president of one of the more than 50 armed groups represented here. we 1st met him 5 years ago. we were covering a series of ethnic who targeted massacres in eastern congo tonight, whose group is responsible. he told us in no, robi, he needs to continue defending his community if not for some world or guns, whereas they are killing in our country. and our people are being killed by different groups such as him to the city from wanda, from uganda, donna, thousands of people from his young close to wise community of fled to fighting. we met him in congo 2 weeks ago. he says they can only go home for wonder,
1:27 am
was forced to stop it's military aggression. he won't the east african community which host to deny re be talks and western countries to sanction rwanda. so he's disappointed the european union has just given reward. the $21000000.00 of military aid was already what took up when the european union sends money. it is in a way, financing rwanda's operation in congo. and we call upon france the u. k. and the us to stop the suppose proceed. that's the only way we can believe can have a decent life or not live like animal, the piece or 2 g to continue in january. and he said to make any progress, almost everyone here says foreign military meddling and congo needs to stop malcolm web. al jazeera nairobi, kenya. it's all about it's sent to allow africa girls to take high school graduation exams this week and that the couldn't documents obtained by the
1:28 am
associated press girls at middle school and high school have been banned from classroom since the taliban took over the country in august. last year, the decision reportedly applies to $31.00 of afghanistan's $34.00 provinces. but a student and the principal have told the a p that the exams are meaningless because girls have been locked out of school for too long. the last election of the u. s. midterms is underway with a run off in georgia is the 1st time in george's modern history. the 2 main parties of nominated black candidates to run for a senate seat incumbent democratic senator rafael warnock. first one, his seat in a 2021 run off. he was the senior pastor at martin luther king junior's old church, and has been an advocate for expanding access to health care. he's up against republican challenger, herschel walker. i retired football star who's endorsed by former president. donald trump is been accused of domestic abuse and denies all allegations she ab returns,
1:29 am
he has more from capitol hill. reverend warlock, senior pastor, martin luther king's church, presenting himself as a, a bipartisan healer of sorts. and then you have herschel walker and you called underestimate, by the way, what a football, american football superstore herschel was. i've seen people from ga, ga week at the knees as a they think about his exploits on, on the field. but it herschel walker deeply in that about magar wing of the republican party committed to doing battle with, with democrats and, but then also accused of hypocrisy on issues of family values. for example, even though he is supposedly the staunch christian anti abortion candidates, the question then is, will we see a rerun of what seemed to occur in november, which is where lots of republicans were prepared to vote for a republican governor in georgia in november. but they weren't able to vote for her,
1:30 am
she walker for perhaps, and thought some of these problems are to the republican governor got 200000 more votes than herschel walker will be able to cool some of those back. i will days later enough come back to the post and say, look, we don't wanna give a democrat as cushion in the senate. we will hold on those and vote for walker. it was quite a key moment for donald trump in some ways as well, because trump endorsed hash walker trump is now said he's running into 2024 an action. this is also going to make another key test of whether that truck brand is still scaring off white suburban versus particularly white female suburban voters as well. so look ah, the top stories and christina.
