ah ah ah, this is al jazeera ah alida on the clock. this is, it is our life window coming up in the next 60 minutes. iran execute to mind linked to anti government protests. it is the 2nd public hanging less than a week. ah. peruse new president pushes for early elections after a night of violent demonstrations. china continues to move away from it's 0 code

policy axing a travel app used to track close contacts. paving away the clean energy sciences in the u. s. claim a breakthrough in generating power through nuclear fusion and cruising through a hotel crunch. calcutta is accommodating football fans for the woke. ah, so iran is executed its 2nd prisoner linked to the anti government protested of in gulf the country. my did to rise out on of out was publicly hanged on monday, and the writing caught convicted him of fatally stabbing 2 security force members during protest. last month demonstrations have swept across or on since mas armine died while in police custody. in september, i left cross treasury to toronto. sa jibari joins is now and also say this is a 2nd execution in

a week. tell us more about who this is and what's the reason given for the execution. well as the 23 year old magic rosara of art was convicted and his sentence upheld in the country's supreme court. in late november he was arrested on november, 19th, 2 days after an incident that allegedly took place on the streets of masha, which is iran. second largest city in the north east of the capital. this incident where authorities alleged that this young man stepped 2 members of the best, each military forces to death and injured another for at a ruby cctv footage of the incident. as while he was very swiftly arrested, convicted and tried in court, and then that sentence that was handed down to him was upheld in the supreme court and carried out on monday morning and mash on. the incident that we're

discussing now is very significant because public hangings are not that common in iran. this is only the 2nd that we've heard of in the country to take place this year. and the 23 year old ron of art was one of the many who have been sentenced to death. he's there at least another 10 people that we know of that have received that death sentence for their role in the demonstrations which have led to at least 60 security forces at being killed according to officials. here, there is also, according to human rights groups, at least $488.00 demonstrators that have been killed during the unrest that has been ongoing in iran since september after the death of nasa. and many, what we understand now is this is certainly being broadcast very publicly, the same still images of the scene of where the hanging took place on the streets in mesh out with it. very much a, an attempt by officials to deliver

a very clear and stern warning to demonstrators that are still continued to go out on the streets across the country. and also there's been a reaction inside and outside the country. yes it just a short while ago we heard from the head of aaron's judiciary, i who is of all m. hussein edgy. he said that we are carrying out with speed and precision at the law and that we mustn't be concerned with the reaction and how people are taking the news. we must continue to carry out their country's laws that are coming down from the courts. we also have been hearing from the iranian foreign ministry spokesperson, who issued a 2 statement saying that they have taken reciprocal measures by imposing sanctions on a number of european union as well as british individuals and entities after those countries decided to impose sanctions on iranian entities. an individual's for their role in carrying out these executions. we also have been hearing from the

e u foreign policy chief, joseph burrell, who is meeting with his european counterparts. he said that they will and be have, they will agree on very tough a package of sanctions on iran, and that they will do everything they can to provide support to young women and peaceful demonstrators in the country. we also heard from the german foreign minister and alina burbock, who said that executions in her on are an attempt to intimidate people for demonstrating goals. so thanks very much indeed. that's the latest from turan dusty barton porter. a palestinian teenager has been killed by israeli forces during a raid in the occupied west bank israeli army carried out the operation. and janine, on sunday night 2 people were arrested. israel's been increasing at military rate in the occupied territories. not nation says 2022 has been the deadliest. if palestinians in 16 years peruse new president to dinner brought it says she will

ask congress to bring the elections forward to april 2024. if 2 people were killed on sunday during protest calling for her resignation and early elections, demonstrators were also demanding for the release of the former president petrie castillo. he was impeached and detained last week. marianna sanchez reports now from lima. violent protests have wrapped it in different parts of the country. the process is flashed with way of policing the center of the capital on sunday. they smoked means we are congress of police force them with tear gas. now professor said they won congress to be close. many of them aren't the orders of former president and many are demanding new election lever. i'm here to the man, the media release of our president, president and the closing of congress in the, in the city of the why last 2 people were killed. 18 and 15 year old. the regional

governor there said that at least 30 people were wounded. protesters took over the airport, they destroyed parts of the landing strip and prevented nearly 50 people from leaving the airport premises, including police officers who remained a hostages. protesters then burned the local police station. the governor of this region called up with the mac has demanded the closing of congress and new election . this happened, a social movement in that region had declared themselves in insurgency inside congress, buyers also erupt. it as lawmakers were debating whether to suspend the former president feels immunity president. do you know what they have sent her condolences to the families of the 2 youngsters dead in the protests and asked for com, acquitted or saying that there is police repression. and that the president was the and the interior minister must order the police to stop the use of force. the u. k

. government is set to hold an emergency meeting to discuss contingency plans for a wave of strikes. workers across the united kingdom are demanding payroll is to keep up with the soaring cost of living, with russian expected to affect several sectors over the december holiday period. but more than 100 form of football players will return to the pitch. the few for legends cup in doha went to colors adobe. that was gay and marco matters. he conducted the drawer for the 8 teams who will compete to the 2 day tournament. it'll take place the days leading up to the final of the cutter, woke up the legends world kept away far incredible legends with vol champions, with players who have written the history of her football,

the history of the world. because we know football is the most important thing in the world. so it's the history of the world that these guys have written. they have made us fall in love, hundreds and hundreds of times with the game. all right, let's get the very latest out of there are now can head to seek work if we're a report a bit toward gate based. anybody victoria coming to the end, but just perhaps some time to catch breath before the final charge with yeah, that's right. certainly getting busy down here in the same guy this afternoon. there are some people emerging from the 5 star hotels that are dotted around this. see, when you ask people about their accommodation in kat are for the world cup, you get a whole host of answers really from people staying increase ships to desert tends to, to fan villages. the authorities here prepared for around 1200000 visitors. they say they're really happy with the way the provision has gone over this world called

everybody who has wanted a room has been able to find one. and they say that the concerns by critics about whether cats are a small country with fewer than 3000000 people with the influx of people for the well couple days we are concerned have been debunked with fans, ruling the world, having descended on doha to which they teams compete in the world cup the 1st 2 weeks of the tournament. we're always going to be the biggest challenge who organizes, particularly in terms of accommodation tele, speaking alongside one of 3 m. s. c. cruise ships, which are operating as placing hotels. the person in charge of accommodation for cattle 2022 says critics concerns about capacity have been proven wrong. based on what we got to phone before a number of people we are in a very good chip. we have even during the tournament we have enough numbers. oh fool. oh for extra fun, if we,

if they would like to come throughout the tournament, fans have been staying in all suits of accommodation from hotels to tense to fam villages like this one rasmus and his friends from denmark. they booked a room in this cabin nearly sales stadium for $200.00 a night. we had a lot of roommates above the room. so honestly, i'm pleasantly surprised. it actually looks decent so, so far so good. the sand villages have a pharmacy and are the shops, complimentary buses take guess to the nearest metro station. it has everything a fan would need you know, the cabins are clean. we have a supermarket. we have, well, you know, different copies hobson ah, places to eat. because like a big screen to watch the games as well. and the atmosphere on the vibe here is great. i like having all the fans from all over all over the world. lucille marina is a 15 minute drive away. this private house boat is operated by 974 cruises. david and

sam have rented it for 2 nights. that's the bed and air conditioning, which is very important. and then we have a little kitchen, which i think you can even cook in which, you know, i don't plan on doing its proximity till the sales stadium was a deciding factor for the couple who flew in from dubai. it was his idea. i was skeptical, actually, and now i'm realizing he was completely right. so i actually did this once in finland, helsinki and my friends rented a house boat and i thought the idea and i heard from word of mouth at this thing existed, demand for accommodation was highest during the group stage. when 32 teams were playing for matches a day, the organizing committee says that in terms of bookings on the official cattle 2022 portal, the top 3 countries so far have been the united states, mexico and argentina. on peak days, there were more than a $100000.00 bookings with less than a week left of the tournament. organizers say they're ready for new visitors to

arrive, especially from the countries whose teams have made it to the semi finals. oh, there are quite a lot of argentinian fans down here at the moment. not so many corporations are quite a lot of people wearing a moroccan jersey is not so many french. so i think that's indicative of the level of support for those teams. at least here in doha, the argentinians have been amazing supporters for their teams. we've had 50000 here from the start of the competition. but in terms of, of, of how many moroccans are here. it's just a sounding the returns of thousands americans. of course, that live in work in doha, thousands more that have flown in to support their team. and i think certainly there's going to be a huge level of support for them to morrow night for their match. it's going to feel very much like a home game for them. yeah, the support has been incredible. victoria, thanks for that says be too late to think. well, since he woke up kicked off almost 200 years ago in uruguay,

just 8 countries have taken home. the trophy under richardson takes a closer look at the history of footballs. most famous competition will, in between watching matches of this world cup fans for the chance to learn about the tournaments. history of this exhibition set up by faith in dough har. it takes you right back to the very 1st will cover, took place in uruguay. a knowing sir, to see on that occasion. just 13 teams took part since then. the events has grown into being the biggest single school competition in the world with a very famous trophy here on dress. tell us a little bit about yes, that's one of our highlights here at the exhibition in doha, during the woke up at the film festival, it's the jury may come at one part of that comp is indeed original. the other one is not as a tragic story behind it. actually, this was the 1st woke up trophy between 930 and 970. that trophy was stolen twice 1st time. right before the wilcox 66 in england. then a famous door called pickles,

founded again, we all know that story and it was then stolen for a 2nd time in 1983 from the headquarters of the brazilian football association. and since then, never fall again. we hope that at some point we can still find it. i fingers crossed. but the, the truth is that is only a replica. so down here, a training shirt worn by or all the special play back from the 1962 will come. tell us a little bit about this. that is by far, one lot of the most beautiful and most popular objects that we have here in the exhibition it is from the only player who won the woke up 3 times. of course, i'm talking about p lee in this world cup. unfortunately, he got injured very early in the group stage, so he couldn't play the entire world cup. but yeah, i think her now at the, especially in these times we fondly think of of p lee and the people come to see this beautiful object attracts. you talk from 60 to, well,

the thing and i of when is, is every way, hey, that's a shirt owned by diego, marathon just ahead of the 1986 world cup is the last time that argentina won the world title. and of course they have the chance to win it again here in cattle. and let me take you over here to 1998 the 1st on france, one the world title. they have the chance to create some more history at this world, becoming only the 3rd scene after italy and brazil to retain the world title this year. it was warned by emanuel patsy in the $98.00 world cup final thought jim nash and peter stubborn will have much more enough special woke up coverage. that'll be well about quarter enough. ah, china is eating more cobit nike restrictions and moving further away from its

strict pandemic rules by jing, saying it will scrap a tracking app on tuesday. now this app records travel history through use is phones signaling. if a person has been to a high risk error, the government run up his monitor people's movements for more than 2 years. but you can, because more than the star from well, this is a really big deal for your average chinese citizen. because this app has been a cornerstone of china's efforts to try and stop the transmission of covey 19 over the last 2 years. it effectively has kept a record of exactly where you've gone and prevented you in many cases from being able to travel from one province to another which has been especially a big deal for chinese families who are trying to reconnect over the loot a new year. holidays now, those are coming in just around 6 weeks time at the end of january. and it could be the 1st time in almost 3 years that many families are going to be able to get back together without any kind of cobit 19 hurdles. getting in the way, so that's pretty how big a deal. this is your average tiny citizen, this app is being dismantled when effectively no longer be

a requirement for people who are trying to move from one providence to another. or in some cases, just go in and out of major cities like aging as part of a series of efforts from the government in recent days to basically dismantle their so called 0 cove, its strategy and trying to open up society once again. the amount of things you can now do in daily life, in china, into a lesser extent, also here in hong kong, has now become much, much easier. this of course, comes after a very rare and even unprecedented set of protests calling for an end to these regulations on the street from the public. and in some cases, even calling for the resignation of president, she, jim ping this type of social pressure really unheard of in this modern age with the way that the communist party has been ruling china. but there are concerns that despite all of this opening up making life much easier. there are also concerns of course, of what could be a spike in cove at $900.00 cases and potentially in depth and international health experts. a warning that china may not be prepared for this. i just want to bring in some breaking news from

a couple the couple of afghanistan. we're hearing that there's been a loud blast, and shots have been heard in the capital. a very sketchy details at this moment. very few details, but we will keep close eye on that and bringing more as we get it lamp lawson shots in the capital, the afghan capital. now the u. s. department of energy is expected to make a major notes from about creating clean energy by using nuclear fusion. us media say that for the 1st time, scientists in california have created more energy than they've used in the process . if fusion has been the holy grail of is called the holy grail of clean energy, and it produces little radioactive waste, no greenhouse gases, and makes lots of electricity. a fusion works by fusing 2 atomic nuclei. scientists in california have been firing powerful lasers, had a hydrogen pellet until a fusion reaction occurs and then releases energy assigned to say one small cup of hydrogen fuel is enough to power house hundreds of years. all right,

let's take this home. we can bring in rafael, had she is in keel in the united kingdom, these professor, nuclear astrophysics at keel university at raphael. welcome to the program. so that's the thing about this is net up until now. science is use more energy than it creates in trying to achieve nuclear fusion. but now they've done it. they're making extra energy. how important is it? it is critical. i mean, one of the major challenges i'm nuclear fusion is, has to take place at bay high temperatures, you know, probably in the sun that the new cal fusion is what i was the sun. but it does so at $50000000.00 degrees. so in order to start the fusion process, we must reach such high temperatures to be able to enable us nuclear reactions. right, and it says replicate in the direction through which energy is created on the sun, and then it makes clean energy with no radioactive ways. unlike nuclear efficient yeah, that's another key process. so the aspect of a new fusion, because a fusion is basically taking small nuclei, choosing them or merging them together,

producing energy, whereas nuclear fission destroys, to very large nuclei into smaller fragments. and didn't small fragments have too much neutrons that make them redirected and therefore hard to store on how to deal with. whereas fusion does not create those radioactive way, so it's much cleaner. we are producing nuclear energy efficient is what we say nuclear power stations, and it's been around for 2 decades. what scale? once this is thoroughly online, what scale could it be used just how important is it in terms of global power and global energy? well, i think it will require a large investment from international community in government, private groups to funding agency. but in couple of decatur, when things are ready, it will be more productive than you fissions. so it will be a key fact or addition to renew been energy sources and really power the world

going forward. right? so initially it would be a useful addition to renew, been to be energy sources but, but ultimately it could be the way the whole world is. power, is it? well, i don't think we want to rely on just a single source of energy. sure. going going forward, but it definitely is. it's almost limitless competency. they're still in the cost of creating and building those power stations and making sure they run correctly. but there's no really limits in the energy available in and the process is incredible. we said earlier that it would be what one cup of hydrogen fuel would be enough to power house. well, what might a power unit like in a home that creates the energy that you need? ok, so i mean, the different design will be large power plants, right? so why do we only need a small amount of nuclei to, to provide

a lot of energy the nuclear power plant? that's the major experiment right now happening. it's from, had been built. it's a very large power station. it might take another few decades until we have a small version of that, right. ok. and then it would just supply homes in the usual way as opposed to electricity company. and what about the technology at the tech technological challenges in getting to this point? you say it's going to be 2 or 3 decades before it really comes on line. what kind of challenges are the engineering child? so the several key challenges we talked about ignition. the difficulty of bringing the plasma up to the right temperature for the process to start with the course ignition process. in the u. s, they tried to you later to con, find a plasma on the each project they use magnetic fields. so system going to come back where you basically make charged particles spin using a very strong ling,

the dick field. after that, when you're both processes will generate heat, the heat will dry steam and, and steam will create energy or electricity in the usual way. but the 2 major challenges are being creating the process at scale with having more energy input. and so the confinement of the class muscle keeping things tied in by heart. why do energy is being released right? well, it's a little way off, but it's fantastic and fascinating. scientific advance, so we appreciate that. thanks very much. indeed. that's rafael chief. i took this from keel in the u. k. a libyan man is in us custody. suspected of being linked to the so called lock of the bombing 34 years ago. i will give him a suit is accused of making the explosive device that blew up the pan am flight one of 3 over the scottish town of luck be in 1998. all 200. 59 people on board flight were killed, as well as 11 people on the ground. so v as president has held

a national security meeting after unrest in northern possible there have been explosions gone far and road blocks in an area where the majority of the population or ethnic serbs, barbara and cooper, has this report for a 2nd day trucks of blocking t main roads leading to border crossings between costs of her and serbia. that softer overnight gunfire. tensions been rising in northern cost of it since the rest of a former policeman. he was part of a mass resignation of services from crossovers. police force last month. they were protesting plans to ban license plates issued by serbia and replaced them with once issued by the cause of our government. the serbian president is demanding their release was wanted our it's important that asian pan tissue and many other serves are released because they do not have any evidence against them whatsoever. that is the key point. they manufacture the indictments against them. caceres prime

minister has warned, violence won't be tolerated, or to put an ambient to tear the peacekeeping mission in kosovo is supposed to create a calm and safe environment. which also means to have freedom of movement. the blocking of public roads with heavy machinery by criminal gangs that shows at police offices is not acceptable and should not be repeated again in the future. serbs living in northern casa, have mounted armed attacks over government plans. the consider anti serbian, the european union mission in kosovo says a stump grenade was held at one of its armored vehicles on saturday. the blocks rule of law chief called for dialogue. this new proposal, her husband table, why the european union support, frances germany, most of the united states and the focus of younger focus would be on talks from negotiations. casa medicaid independence from serbia and 2008, after a war from 1998 to 1999. but some subs in the breakaway republic said they're

being marginalized. caceres president, post print local elections in the majority serb northern region until next april. after sab said, that boy caught the pulse. barbara and gave her out to sarah, whistle had here now to europe, jim nash and peter seller will have much more work of special right after this month. aah! snow's becoming something of a story, not just in europe in asia and north america as well. but last night, at the time of the turn, the british off to get some disrupt, his snow pretty. it looked may be in some parts of it, but disrupted in the southeast corner, including he sir, airport is this whole area of central europe. now this is eric hi oppression. it's

cold with snow coming at it for many directions. the worst is good to be up in the southern baltic, but if he is south of that, it's rain and it's rain once again coming into portugal. flood risk here, and pauses, spain. and that's with strong winds, that be failure. but it is rain, and the remaining rating submits lead towards greece is left at least to asian and bosnia dry, where flooding has been recent problem, but the cold is extending southwards. he got his whole part of the european playmates. coal was stow for him places and said it was going to be in the baltic, but on the ground it looks like it's for example, in slovakia when the snow fell was freezing. rain of course, s temporarily at least disruptive, even though you might be used to it or even enjoying it. but as we get to choose a spot, the difference will apart from the rain and spreading through the rest of spain and running at the western side of france, it's still cold, but mostly sunny not very ah,

to inculcate a culture of knowledge, openness and pluralism. world wide had to reward merit and excellence and encourage creativity. the shake ahmad award for translation and international understanding was founded to promote translation and honor translators, and acknowledged the road and strengthening the bonds of friendship and co operation between arab islamic and wild coaches. cities home to millions and debate drive out of the climate crisis. cities have more space in school to do the radical thing. pledges the made about smarter. green, a lower carbon, 53. gentrification is a growing process of inequality and displacement. but are these promised utopia for every one or just to select feel all hell the planning looked at where the green

cities can also be socially. just episode 5 on al jazeera lou. this it so my time for the semi finals, hey in cas, are welcome along to you are welcome to day. i'm devin and i'm peter sam at the 1st 70 final c's. macy leads mod rich. it's a case last chance saloon for 2 of the games grades. these 2 number tains are closing in on may 1st woke up triumph, but only one can progress. look ahead so that argentina, croatia, semi final morocco electing to pull off another major up at 5. well, champion problem to discuss the north african jump in the f, one, talent,

gulf energy banking, 5, retail. the royal family and horse races could all have relationships with the middle east, football. com and from england defended gallery. naval tells us there as far as smell. he falls on the level of scrutiny face by host nation. and joining us in the studio to unpack all of that. but we'll analyst on around the day, away from the bus to semi find the castle. 2020 odyssey show down with probation fee just to see what the game great natal messy analytical market looking to win the title for the 1st time. and what will most likely be the law? well, that's the typing to lead and see that the best title in us since 1986, 35 year old was unlimited goals. corporate america has yet to win the big one out

for margaret she's, i'm but major international title. we spoke to creation tv journalists, special lugen, age. he says that there's plenty more to creation team than just lucca mortgage. they knew that they're really good strong and they showed that the recently a nation please. you know, we beat the denmark and france, you know, in june we beat them or can copenhagen, we beat france and paris france with a benzo ma and, and, and bypass. so they show the, their strength in the, in those matches, we went through to the nations league final for and the, at the end of the day, this is still more degeneration. oh, okay. well, case 4 years older than he was in rush about who is the key player for madrid, champion of europe, you know, will commodity. so he's still on a extremely high level. also, we have amazing go players, mcfield along look alike browse of each like quality. he has a amazing good player in a, in even a better shape. and that is the, you know,

a key off our, off our theme. and also some new players came up especially awful lot of guilt who's, by my opinion, one of the best center bit backs at the world cup so far. so i think that the disgrace, she's also wary, stronger. there are some differences. of course, when you compare it to marry the t from no rush about, this is still strong theme. let's bring in when it say frontier of the game. great . so going to face of that they threat and on the senate nessie and markets he's going to be coming out on south in his mom. not as i shall not hear my system the the key out. i'm at a tough one because it's a team. both teams are very similar. it not are not the same mirror images of each other. but both teams really require a great deal of the collective. they have that one player that can really make a difference. and it was interesting, this listen to about will suck it only over just a few minutes ago in the technical study group of a press conference that they were giving at that both teams have done something very interesting, which is being able to establish their blocks. but also doing it

a hybrid matter in which both luca motors and leo messy, both end up getting a break in not having so much responsibility defensively there for free themselves . but at the end of the day, you have to go keepers that are very solid. you have to defenses that are solid, but at the end of that i think that it's going to go to extra time, very tight. maybe argentine as the one that by a hair, by a whisker goes through. you talk about the tactics they, i mean croatia have been very patient, very solid, very defensive argentina that they've been solid to, haven't they? i mean, except for conceding to golden, the last 10 minutes against the batch. how i mean, you talk about being a close of fe. we'll, we're gonna see a difference here. let me feel. yeah. and it's tough because we're talking about one of the best mid fields in, in croatia with, with brokovich, with mother it's and also worth of coverage. but also argentina depend a lot on that mid field and how they're performing you side against the netherlands when you brought road legal to pull off and you start to bring lip, but it is. he offers a lot, but not the same thing that the paul does going forward. defensively. the team

started to look a little frail in some instances. so when you start to see him when mcallister is, well, that's where the difference ends up coming for argentina if they can match up against them. and of course, matthew ends up having yet another great game. it's very tough to not call argentina. let's now focus on the other san milan when america take on france. that's al. based on wednesday it will be a match. elated with history and symbolism were okay. gained independence from france in 1956 after king mohammed returned from exile and many fans, emer. okay, say a when ever france, we like a 2nd independence day. admitted yet little we have a history of 1200 years. i think we should never be dependent on any countries. i mean, we are an independent people. i will feel proud if we beat france, then we can say and confirmed that we have power. and also we will confirm that we are not obliged to follow a specific sided and know la la hud leak in the lab, in the relationship between morocco and france. little tense. what we hope the next

match will bring people together that you can ask me, which team my support. i spent 52 years in france of this kind of soil bluff hoss keen, gone to keeps here shortly on demand. france is agree. keep the roll champion, but we hope to celebrate moral cause when the next going to be a great match and we are going to win. that's for sure. so the okay, one on pay for everybody's gonna agree. france of the favorites against morocco, right? but the moroccans have surprised everybody, and their coach haven't mentioned that they, it's not really a miracle, it's hard work. nobody can score a goal against these guys. how much of a chance do they have in that same final, a great chance and, and i'm not going to mention one player because it would be unworthy of the exercise. because france need other individuals to start to come in and they have to em, any, i don't have you, you, you see greets mom come in and he is very important. obviously up top was ye who'd and, and, and with, with a and, but they also very key. but those 3 of the ones that may have made the difference

for france, especially when england gave him so much in the middle with morocco, you see a team that's going to be more compact and it's going to depend on him, but better be more of a transporter and distributor, as well as a score in this case, and what better player to be able to hold him down than his teammate a shockey me. and you think the other, the other se, phylogeny lacresha is expected to be quite placed. you think this almost every place maybe just to call in it, okay. exit new it'll be, it'll be very close, especially if you have the another in nestle type of, of instance of brilliance. if you see i'm rabbit, become that dominant figure. once again in the middle, then you start to see france even get more complicated but, but to me it's going to be a really, really, really close encounter. i would like to see morocco go through to be quite honest. but logic would tell me to stick with france. yes, ali a fascinating and matching france, but there is no. now a casara has been under more scrutiny than any other hayes nation in former england defend a gary neville says, and not all of it has been justified. neville tight

a t well cuts. the england now acts as a television pundits. he told a farmer is malik. a host of the next law cut the usa, have some major issues it to address. there's no doubt that ours been targeted more than any other country that have had the will cut. you know, i don't believe south africa was targeted much all china with tags from the olympics is much all russia. it's oxy from the will cook. it's ours. been like a lightning rod for people to come together to i think actually part of it to me. i think it was the middle east, it's wednesday is, was football brought me to the middle east. there are some jury listening when you've covered the story for many, many years. but the majority of just jumps on the market in the last 6 months and started to highlight it. if we're going to highlight issues in parts of the world, we should highlight them wherever we go. we're intertwined with relationships and partnerships for the middle east. not happen for 20 years, so i'm struggling to understand a little bit why all of a sudden. there has been this sort of what would be the thing that we should of

a woke up in the middle east. we should have relationships with guitar. we should have relationships with the middle east and countries. all families come just, that's not how it works. that's not always been the 20 is my life where i've been taken to football countries all over the world. well, you know, you said you've been coming here for 20 years while i've lived here for a long time. i have a deep connection to this country and i took it personally like a lot of the stuff that the u. k. media was saying, do you think that there are biases by the u. k. media, why don't understand this? how f one tallies, gulf energy banking finance, retails. the royal family and horse races. can all have relationships with the middle east. but football come i don't, and i'm not accepting that anymore. i'm not sitting there next football player looked, playing football in different parts of the world for 20 years, is now being criticized for basically coming over here and compensating for the whole broadcast fee, football games. while everybody else in our country,

most of the people say most of the country can enjoy relationships with the middle east and far east. in countries we have the same work system which of the same so of what would be beliefs? i'm sorry, i'm not accepting that always football players, next football players or after that. and so obviously like the perfect challenges this so obviously like we said, the fights were everybody, but politicians and all the people institutional positions don't you can see is more of our media. more of the world's media comes over. every experience is the middle east experience is what happens over it. now it's so different than, than our country that look back and think about what our country can do better, what the middle east can do better. but should we have partnerships relationships with the middle east, with a fiery? we absolutely need to. we have politicians now, a country you call people who try to come all for a safe alive invaders. yet i would, i would means you're not country of focused heavily on what would be the problem with migrant workers over here. but the way in which we treat people who are trying

to come over to our shores to work to actually see, refuse to be the same place is terrible. so i'm, after the conversation is happening. i'm getting to the end of the children, albany, 3 weeks. i've taken a lot, okay, this is my cell phone. i'm. busy while this conversation continually for next wednesday is one thing. so sir, and i'm not gonna stop coming to the middle east. so you're talking about, you know, ok since determined started people that you work with are the u. k. media in general? do you think their preconceptions have changed since covering it or since the world cup has started? soon will i think some will change definitely. you can feel it and some lives of made a position that they don't believe the wilcox should be over here and they'll not change. and but the conversations good to have, we're going to america for us. i'm going laws, abortion, women's rights, state capital punishment in many states, racism in large parts of america. we should we talk more about these things in football, but in every country in every country, not just in,

not just in this country. and i think we turned a blind eye 4 years ago to russia, you know, 4 years ago in russia, everyone said in the blind di to what was happening. and basically this side of it . if over compensate diving and come see far the other way. alcohol has been something that, you know, people have been talked about, it talked about a lot here. do you think the decision to not have it in and around the stadium because maybe me, the atmosphere at the stadiums. a lot more. you know, family friendly. i don't get it was a problem with no call. i think the only problem was the fact that it felt like a decision that was made too late. and that's the only decision that i can think can be critical of the relative is i don't think it's home for the ultimate in any way, shape or form. if i think that if anything, everyone's felt really safe, go into the games. everyone felt would be really good atmosphere is i have to think probably sometimes you've probably drunk out cold before going much feel better going. so she so, but so i think that's the only criticism i would have would be if you live in the

delay making the decision. but in terms of the actual decision itself and how it happens, the stadium has been fantastic from a football point of view in the atmosphere point of view. and what have you thought about the one city format? the players will absolutely love it. if you speak, the players know travelling, people say the america and if you decide that solomon scott scott will be out of funds traveling 345. i was potentially between games be knockout games and the group games. it'll be tough for the players because you get on the plane after every game, to fly by the base. so the warm city told him the ones that the format was always going to work. the only thing i was worried about was, was traffic that's been handled really well. i was worried a little bit about the concentration of fans. maybe some trouble. again, that's not materialized. so the 2 things that we're concerned before the told me, which was accommodation, all 3 things, accommodation, a bit of trouble and traffic have been handled brilliantly generally during the tournament. are you, are you worried about? are you concerned about it changing to the 48 team format in 4 years?

i think that i'm worried about the 48 team formats. things that is how it works, how it sort of bills, but you know, great participation for african team teams from different pos, foster lazy, different parts of asia. i think was something that we were rocco will mean that people will say that an increase for me is probably something that's right because of that, i think infancy will feel justified in his decision to expand the tournament because he was to try and create a great world called rather just have it is more of a specific to team so on. however, we still have to make sure that football tournament itself is of high quality and that still yet to prove and with a 48 teams on. okay, who do you think it's going to make it to the final? i think well, all predictions are out of the window in this order. yeah, i would think i would think it will be arjun siena and france. that's what i think the final will be if i look at it on paper. but you'd probably be sure to predict that because it could easily be morocco and gratian all creation from so morocco, knowledge and seeing that because you just feel now you just feel like it's messy

and buffy in the find lots how you feel. it's going to end up i'd be surprised if it didn't do an argentine you've got nastiness to them that you feel could get them over the line that was by that little spirit. and they've got a great base over as well. but when we heard gary, they talk about the scrutiny that casso was under coming into. this woke up some of that we saw with cell african 2010, brazil in 14 rushing 18 as well. some of it had a lot of merit. some of it was extremely unfair. what kind of scrutiny do you think the united states will be under in going into 20? 26, should be about the same, maybe more because of, of everything. and, and i've mentioned course, somewhat somewhat, some states and, and what they've done in order to, to limit the rate of certain people are what the authorities, especially police, have been able to do or have been geared getting away with, with a black communities throughout the united states and even some, some hispanic communities and, and other minorities. but going up, i mean,

in 2010 we, we saw what the u. k. in u. s. media particular were saying about what would happen if you go to south africa. same thing. you go to brazil, you're getting a kill because you got off of l and they're going to kill you. you would hear a lot of that and people were scared about it. in terms of what said in terms of the logistics is not just only the u. s, it's hosting, it's also canada, mexico. how people going to transport your travel from one country to the other? there's a lot to do with with that. so when you, when you overall start looking at what 2026 is going to, it's gonna be a great term and i'm thrilled that it's going to be there. it, you know, having to test it once again in my home country it's, it's very exciting. but there are a lot of things that need to be worked upon and the media have to have to be able to improve a great deal in order to cover the sport better in that part of the world. that's the market and for a assignment needed at to this one. can you think the level of criticism has been unfairly harsh? absolutely, unfairly, unjustly. and sometimes it ends up being

a great influence and into confusing people as to what the realities are compared to what they want it to be. and, and it's a very cultural thing that, that, that's been established. i mean, a very internal in terms of, well, you know, it should be here, it only here and helped us and only us and anything else that that's different to us is no good. and you see that a lot in the u. s. median particular, it's very unfortunate for, but it is what it is, isn't it, sir? what are? and that's always nice to talk to you. we'll see you again in a couple of hours time for next broadcast. that's all we have time for on this occasion. when we can go visit our website at delta 0 dot com, forward slash sports. yes, there, back at $1313.00 gmc with plenty mailed out to you as a wildcat semi finals, including more on a lost her off the lead on etsy and lead and logic. if they looking to win the wild card for the 1st time to crown this story, the poorest. but for now it's back to nick in the meeting. jana paid a brilliant thanks very much indeed. all will be revealed in the next couple of days. i still ahead here are not 0 pharmacy in afghanistan and struggling to

explore to major spice despite the bumper harvest this year will tell you why. with

ah ah ah, just a quick update on that breaking news out of afghanistan, an explosion followed by repeated gun fire has been heard in the capital to bull as we reporting earlier. and i witnesses told out the 0 that the expression took place at a building. i rented by chinese investors armed men stormed the building in central to pull, and then open, far not yet known who's behind the tackle. if indeed,

there are any casualties, but we'll bring you more as we get it. of course, this president joe biden has promised to prioritize efforts to strengthen ukraine's their defense. the president made the comments during phone call, ukrainian leda low to mid savanski, and that was on sunday for events. lensky tweeted that the lead is also discuss maintenance of ukraine's energy sector, which has been a target of russian attacks. with the governor of the lou hands region says the ukrainian forces have hit a hotel that was being used by mercenaries for russia's workmen group. as i hate high bay, says fighters were killed in the blast in the town of cad etha. log the group is a private miniature contract to this. such have close ties to the kremlin. when the president says, rushing forces have reduced the city of buckman to ruins. that's enough. roy challenge has more from keith. the fighting and back moves has been described to me by some of the people involved in. it says reminiscence of stalingrad. like some of the 20th century, worst attrition of bloodbath,

but happening in this country. and right now, that's why month of intense combat, for new forces do still hold on to back me quite why russia is willing to sacrifice so many men to take what is a relatively strategically unimportant city. as many observers perplexed in the southern city of a desa, the situation is improving for 1500000 people who are plunged into darkness by russian drone strikes and ukraine is hitting back probably using high mars that precision rocket system given to it by its western allies its been targeting russian bases and barracks in occupied territory. melissa pole being particularly hard hit. now 2022 is drawing to a close. and ukraine is a country radically altered from a year ago. and i report looks at a group of ukrainian scientists who had big plans for this year. changed an instance by russia's invasion,

a frigid landscape as snow and ice the natural habitat for a polar specialist. but this is cubes, war scarred alpha suburbs, not the antarctic wilderness, elena and her colleagues should have been exploring this year. ukraine's national antarctic scientific sent expedition was due to set off last february, till rushes invasion froze their dreams. instead, they've hung up the polar wear and their lives have taken very different parts. some of our polar scientists operate in the, in different kinds of france. so some of them and, and bob, some of them in the south. but the wrong group of the scientists form the old unit and they called themselves military pimpton. i believe it's a characteristically ukrainian flourish of humor to help see them through these dark times. they even have their own badge. you can see that it's been been in

cossack style. he is angry by the way, this penguin battalion of arctic scientists is doing real fighting in some of the was toughest battles. the guys also on the, on the somewhere near boston with again, this is for sure. involvement come back, which is tough for bath motors. elena can see what the war is doing to friends and colleagues. she's known intimately for years. i see how he becomes old and older, and also he becomes sentimental when recent mental about motions, she like, she could start crying, watching some, some small themes or saying and, and what does it also important to start to said, i love you. i care about how much more than before you just love. march anchor is the top tech centers technical director just out of a key of hospital following a close call and back move to the fighting. he described a hellish coughing of pounding, artillery, and hand to hand combat the muzzle was keen. it usually be what we had

a very difficult night battle. if i have a stone by 24 of them, they broke in some parts of the building. we did not control and the fighting was 5 or 6 meters grenades flying. everyone shooting grenades fell just one and a half meter for my head as i was in a pit under the mac, the mac, the pseudo, it was for now. you have to laugh, can't afford to think of what he be doing. if russia hadn't attacked the point, i'm completely focused on the war, but i really wanted to end with you to return to me for life. again, i want to grade something, not destroy it, but for now i have to destroy. unfortunately, elena is busy helping to. she's raising money and supplies food helmets, drones to send to the front lines, just things that might end up saving the lives of her colleagues, the story of ukraine's antarctic scientists and how they became the penguin legion of frontline warriors. crowdfunding is one of millions of civil transformations

every day lives indefinitely put on hold. so they can help their country in its hour of need for each. allen's, how does era here? picasso's military says at least 7 civilians have died after half gun forces shell to board a town. the army says 16 others were wounded in the town of charmin baluchistan province. fighting happened after afghan forces tried to cut part of a french installed by pakistan. and most trade between afghanistan and pakistan passes through the area farmers and traders in afghanistan struggling to find international buyers for their saffron despises. a major source of income and pharmacy output is increasingly difficult this year. but sales have been difficult since countries severed ties with afghanistan, and the taliban returned to par last year of new mitchell as more it's been a bumper season for saffron grew or said the weather conditions in west in afghanistan are ideal for cultivation. international agencies have trained farmers

for years and it's paying off many switched to saffron after the taliban band, their crops. if you see the wood, i'm michelle self care, can you see a lot of farmers who were earlier growing poppy don't to saffron was this is one of the reasons for the increase in production. also saffron needs less water, that farmers have worked very hard to increase the quantity and the quality of separate saffron is the most expensive spice in the world. a kilogram can fetch nearly $2000.00. and if garner style is a leading exporter, inherit province, it's a major source of employment, especially for women who make up most of the workforce. but this year cheetos are struggling to move their produce most country sever ties with the finest on when the taliban took over in august 2021. cutting off access to traditional markets. receiving payments has also been challenging. there is limitation is that we can't receive our money in time and we should bring from our own our money in case we

have run the customer escrow has a bank account in dubai from either. i'm sorry to do very i didn't bring it in here . i'll throw the selfie on it is a most a 100 percent of losses in transaction and wiring pharmacy doing business domestically has become easier and there's less corruption. chun. busy learn more, more skill house for the yeah, some old problems have been solved. for example, it becomes faster to process people work than during previous governments. we have about 100 hectares of land under cultivation, programming mother, it's become easier to access it and look after it himself. transport facilities have improved. it's easier to get to cobbled by rod them in and by an recently of gone to stan, revise some export it, ship dried fruit, and saffron was $2000000.00 to the ear. this month grew as hope the taliban government will do more to revive industries to uplift the struggling economy.

pardon him at the largest either. and without a tit for me, nicholas this musa emily will be here in such with another half hour views and i'll be back to a bit later and then ah, i didn't know that they all ready for the 1300000 a make or break moment for synagogue happy here i can tell you that with ring is displayed in my queue and i got into that they would not happen. belief is what argentinians are feeling here in central when the side and

here in the center of so you could only to be given. but thinking that satar a with an opportunity for found to be creative and celebrate their team la. ah, with talk to l just a little bit. got it. that was somehow abandoned by the international community.

we listen. we are in a huge price for the ra, a terrorist that's going on. so money we meet with global news makers. i'm talk about the stories that matter on al jazeera. ah, iran hangs a man linked to anti government protest since the 2nd execution in less than a week. ah, hello, i'm emily and gwen. this is al jazeera alive from dough house are coming up for new president pushes for early elections after night, a violent demons.
