in the rock really of land. since the idea of this being a home will cover everything they can. so make that team feel at home and they've got a ready made support based here in capsule. it's a little detail about making sure the play has parents and families around them as much as possible surrounding them with familiar culture, assuming language, familial, who just giving the marriage around this tournament. the country is also invested massively, and here is a happy accident. they've invested in the national center of excellence in data analysis at all levels in the women's game as well. the countries had multiple bits, the host, the world cup in the past, been successful. so the problem with this world come surely, and it's a one day to take the well cut back to africa as to france, well, no amounts of whistling and jeering from the morocco. friends could quite put them off their straw a oh

listen, we're very, very lucky today with our best we play the best work up ever. we're very proud of our team, which we wanted to beat them because we wanted to take to take reverse to england. but we couldn't, we try the best one at the end of the day. withdraw enough for the 3rd place. and we wish booklets, wasn't enough. we, i would say more than any all tonight you think we are really proud of this team? moral call. did the best in this, in this game, but no problem. 100. he left, we are really, really, really happy for all of the much as of this, this team miracle with the best for us. how do the law really it's hot breaking for us. what you know, morocco you the best we very happy with the regret, gay. he's done a very, very good job. we come all the way from liverpool. i will be in support in morocco since day one. and we can't ask enough a long going. it's really good,

so they did really good to call and this has been a really good welcome. like they've never been to the semi finals. so it's really good to keep it from morocco. well, don't guys. well, what about yourself, dan? hey, what did you think of your team tonight? they were not bad. the like the 2nd goal of friends, it was just an off site. right. i think it was off time. yeah. well if you place was on, yes, i did do good. they did make it to the semi finals, never made it to the semi finals. so really, really good play. yes. yeah. we got to get like that place that place is actually not like, you know, there's a lot of, i don't really mean that blockbuster final is all i all just seen aside who this world champion, so the richest. let's find out. that kid is upon it. well, let's get the reaction from science back home. nick at his heart was watching with,

but rock in support is in casablanca, but 1st, in the past, her butler, with all the happy french facts i haven't had with will help fine on with me. you know, lady, how do you feel tonight a how you came to win the world need we do with i think one with the fun thing

with the gore is not what people had expected. were in the downtown a blank on the old medina in a place where people had gathered moroccans, but also my grandmother from africa had gathered together to watch the game. and i said no. 6 no problem did. lemme go as a fact that they have gone to that. it's about the bar. it feels like they've shattered the glass ceiling and that now anything is possible . this team, the moroccan team has made people dream. it's a 1st time that we've seen a muslim team going so far. an arab came in african team going as far in the world cup and now it feels like anything is possible. next up is on saturday, the game against croatia,

and then our heroes. welcome back in morocco. well let's bring a la football unless osha congregation and fun. and i go, i'm just sorry, i got it wrong again. so i can see disappointment, not only for morocco, but for the entire african continent, but i've got to say morocco had their chances. yes, absolutely. i mean, they come into this fixture knowing that there were 90 minutes away from creating history and perhaps playing, you know, the well kept fine of but they did not really, you know, use the opportunities in front of girl and they're playing against, you know, they're defending while champions france, who yes, have not been as clinical as we've seen argentina, you know, ride to the fi. no, but they got the result and that's what matters at this point. and really just talking about morocco, there'll be proud they'll be proud that finally they broke that ceiling and became the 1st african team to make it to the semi finals. and now they spend a chance to actually finish that, which would be a great achievement. of course, one morocco actually had more possession in that matter. possession fats can be

twisted a little bit. i mean, did it surprise you that france took so long to add to that very early leader, they had no with the it doesn't because france is a team that's very methodical in what they do. they're very pragmatic. they, they understand and collectively they know how to read the situations very well, and this will fine, we'll let them know where themselves out. we'll let them get frustrated. we'll let them make the mistake that we can go and pounce on. and that's exactly what they did if, if you see france and how they were able to manage themselves in 2018, it's very similar. the style hasn't changed. maybe some of the protagonists have but the overall philosophy of what france is able to execute from the 2018 to now it's still intact. was it frosting rope a dope, then kind of all they can will the thing is laser that while they can do that and they can also sting like you know, to be burst brit, even better. thanks very much guards. thanks for all your efforts this evening.

well, $32.00 teams i started this tournament to just to fill out the child to lift a trophy thursday. the rest very for all of us to prepare for the laugh batches, which i thought 2022. i will have all the build up to the walk up final covered right here are out there. ah. but the reaction that to that woke up semi final has not been positive in some pos morocco fans for with police officers in brussels after their team last to france around a 100 fans gathered near a major railway station with some throwing fire was a riot police officers use water cannon and tear gas to break up the class. meanwhile, police in paris broke a fight between moroccan and french fans. large crowds gathered at the shows eliza

between africa. companies and american companies. united states is all in an africa suture. the 2nd day of the summits, or several hours of paneled discussions about the potential of us african traded investment. but everyone here is aware that china has passed us by a long way in business and strategic partnerships, and that the u. s. is not thrilled with those investments. what the nations here have been making clear is that they will not be beholden to any power as they look to the future. the president of the democratic republic of congo using a photo opportunity to quietly criticize the u. s. after receiving condolences for the flooding in the country, what's killed at least a 100, for example, you've just given us now sincere condolences for the tragedy and construction. thank you for your condolences, but this is the very example of what we have regretted with some time the support from countries to pollute and which unfortunately leads to negative consequences in our countries that cannot protect themselves from this job button isn't having any

bilateral meetings with the african leaders here, the responsibility of secretary of state as well blinking instead of the white house at bite and would have informal little movements with leaders at the forum and at the white house dinner. it is fascinating watching us officials trying hard not to talk about what they feel really malign intentions of china and russia. but they know that to do so. if the suggests of african nations are love naive and unaware of the consequences of their own strategic priorities. she ever fancy al jazeera washington, a sled on idea. christmas is around the corner, but russia says there will be no cease fire in the way in ukraine. ah, anticipation is rising. and so is the actors with sponsored my cattle aways?

a lay peninsula had a good scattering of showers across a good part of indonesia, over the next couple of days. last dry, now i'm pleased to say across march of south asia, we have got a good deal of settled weather for the most part and try to pakistan de with sponsored by cattle, a ways a coming of age story in a can you see fighting to preserve its heritage in an ever changing world thing on an ancient ritual to future generations. in an award winning documentary out as they were world followed the group of young men on their right to pass the challenge in the remote forest of ivory coast that they could work on al jazeera. ah

ah, hello again, you're watching. i just need a reminder about top stories. this rainy walk up champions, france have ended. morocco's fairytale run at the tournament. frost defeated, the atlas lines to new. they will now face argentina in the final on some u. s. president joe biden has announced billions of dollars of investments and partnerships with african countries. biden's hosting leaders for a 3 day summit. as the u. s. tries to counter growing chinese and russian influence on the continent. at least 4 people have died after a boat carrying asylum seekers capsized in freezing waters between france and the u . k. agencies say the deaths were avoidable and blamed the u. k. government for

making safe routes, unavailable for migrants trying to cross the english channel. andrew simmons reports from the search control center in dover. not for the 1st time refugees and migrants dying at sea, but more lives would save them lost as fishermen pulled people to safety from the icy waters of the english channel. richard inflatable boat with people on board migrants i was crossing and was sinking very, very near to where he was fishing. so amazingly got right in next to the, the sinking boat and managed to come alongside and safely get 31 people on board. this latest tragedy is once again down to people, traffickers, they're not deterred by freezing whether neither. it seems other migrants. general

crossings is ongoing, humanitarian crisis and people traffickers have never been busier. at the same time, politicians are running short of ideas on how to stop them. it is not cruel or unkind to want to break, strangle hold of the criminal gang who trade in human misery and who exploit our system. and i'm sure the whole house will share my sorrow at the capsizing of a small boat in the channel in the early hours of this morning. and the tragic loss of human life hearts go out all those effects in less than 24 hours before these death. u k. prime minister richey sooner had been talking about new measures to curb the channel crossings. but so far, every measure the u. k. government introduces, has failed, then needs to be signed from the rates. that's the biggest issue that we've got the my name is the people are making the journey from can i? because there is no other way of doing it. you have to be on british coil on the island in order to seek asylum,

has no center and tell i want you to find this item. so people have a choice, but to make this journey, i'm not the single biggest thing that the government could do in order to prevent people having to risk their life. here, dover, lightfoot, station they've seen is all before people trafficking across the channel. is it record levels 40000 this year? under the weekend alone, 500 risk their lives. tragedies are all too frequent. this time more lives was save the lost. but that isn't always the case. most november 27 lives were lost in the channel. the highest number ever recorded. a diplomatic spat followed between france and the u. k. with the british saying, the french should do more to stop the small boats from leaving their shore line. as the life boat crews will tell you, the crossings are ever more frequent and dangerous. andrew simmonds, al jazeera dover, or russia says no christmas cease. fire is on the cards after nearly 10 months of

a devastating war in ukraine is continued to launch more attacks. me, while ukraine's government says its forces have shot down 13 russian drones that were launched towards the capital. keith russia shells have also had a regional administration building in the city of her son. millions of ukrainians are without regular access to power, water and heat while they faced some 0 temperatures. rory challenge reports from keith it looks bad, of course, but it could have been so much worse. thankfully, no one was underneath the drone when it was shot down and crashed into this key building early on wednesday morning. spit lana cleared up the damage at her father's flat just across the way. i thought it's a good morning because we were alive. does go off, it can be removed under place. it's not a big deal. it's a stoicism born of experience for months. russia has targeted ukraine, cities and power infrastructure. but stoicism does not mean apathy is that makes

that much angry group. this time, the attack was a failure to put a laser umbrella in their information. all 13 drones were shut down by ukrainian advent modes. weldon, i'm proud of you here. citizens and we are grateful to the defense and don't ignore the sirens. but previous drone strikes, particularly when paired with cruise missiles, to be more successful. since mid october, russia has damaged every one of the cranes thermal power plants. and the russians trying to choice is this. they call them karen's. but despite russia and iran denials there, why be believe to be the iranian made? shaw had 136, and it's smaller version the 131 try out to 0 was given rare access to recovered examples being studied by ukraine's military intelligence. the sabres, philip,

think them some additional said yes, these are the more damage to us because russia uses him, most of them was the stickler. and there was head of one of the one is 20, was to leave, not keeping his real identity secret with actual told me what's inside them. despite the drones assumed iranian origins, almost all the components of foreign, some or even ukrainian talisman canada. this is kind of the 1st canada, so that's interesting because it shows that despite being on the sanctions, iran is still managing to get hold of components like this. some suggest russia's use of imported drones means it has diminishing stocks of its own precision missiles. but he crane knows it can't be complacence. despite the destruction you see here, it was a lucky day for key if 100 percent of the drain shut down no deaths and no injuries . but he's to say the next time this happens, they'll be so fortunate and that's why the crane is making better ad offense. one of the most important requests it's making of its friends and allies, rory,

talents out to 0. give a turkish court has sentence. is stan bull's man. it's a more than 2 and a half years in prison for insulting public officials. the child focused on remarks excellent. him a moly made during the marrow race in 2019 conviction prevents him from holding elected public office for the duration of the census. but his legal team says he'll appeal to ruling him. a molar was seen as a potential challenge to president richard time. edwin in elections next year, center console has more from assemble. m. o molo, won a stumble, mayoral seat a couple of years ago. and at that time the difference between a government's candidate and him was around a less than $100000.00 votes. but the government insisted, and a higher electoral board decided for a re run of the elections, which came up with 8 and more than $800000.00 of votes that brought

a stumble of mayer's a seat. so at that time we heard a, crummy mo, mo lou calling the higher electoral anecdotal, board members as it is. and this is the reason why the case was open against him. but however, to day no one was expecting a verdict. and in many people who even a r a, against a cram in mamma lou. oh, we're not expecting the sentence. so according to the situation, and the court is a go, it will need to issue a written averting, which is the final judgement or a justified judgement in a week. and then add the defense a, crummy mo, mo lou has the right to reject this decision. and then at the, in the case goes to the court of appeals. a peruse government has deployed the army to help contain protests is also declared a nationwide state of emergency as it tries to stop demonstrations. calling for the
