late up against the defending champion. rog and i just want to give you an idea of the atmosphere here in to walker. hundreds of argentinians of people from all over the world in support of art and tina had descended upon soup walker. and if you just look at what's happening behind me, there is a to a la, he's a very famous argentinian man in his eighty's who comes to play the drums in every big match. it's also plenty of flight way. think. i'm many thinking about the late diego mara, john, they're saying that he's going to pacify down to walk many d, that they here lie more messy. they want to see, i know messy, possibly retire, having won the world cup and that will give him more cub san diego. so it looks good from here. the party will continue into the night. but many argentinians i

spoke to our author pretty nervous about tomorrow. having said that has been fixed decade since a defending champion has one back to back to one of a. so let's see how they do and whether we'll see this kind of atmosphere. devora ah, counting has started in tunisia is national parliamentary elections. provisional results indicate time out was just below 9 percent with opposition policies, boy causing the vote. this is the 1st poll being held underneath the as controversial new constitution. opposition supporters are demanding president chi sidestepped down a say the election is illegitimate. after he expanded his presidential powers last year. a dollars? yes. i address all tunis ins and voters to say the on the revolution anniversary.

this is your historic charms. you are great people in tune as urine everywhere in the world. so do not lose this chance and listen to your conscience in order to regain your legitimate rights. hash nabarra joins us live now from tennis and i guess passion with her turn out being so low. people questioning the basis for this election and the opposition boycotting it. that it, it rather feels like a futile exercise. this is definitely a setback for president places i had because when the a high election committee announced a while ago here, the voter turnout, which was that less than 9 percent. this is the lowest photo turnouts is the thought of democracy in tennessee or in 2011. and there was a general sentiment that elections in a way would be providing some sense of popular support for the series of decisions

that were taken by president isis. i it says 2021. now president remains defiant. has said that this is an historic opportunity for the people to take their faith into their own hands, to be able to establish a permanent strong justice and democracy. but people are becoming more concerned about their future. because if you remember money in 2011, when democracy was established, the backbone of that democracy was gender parity, which faked away for women to have a big essay. and political parties which were competing with its own ideas and visions for a better representation in the gover, in the parliament. and then at poverty, a parliament which was by far the most vibrant active parliament in this part of the world. now, with the changes that were introduced in 2021, political parties have been under mine. the power of the parliament has been diminished, and the president has been consider dating eh, his,

his powers. and this is why people's thought to be concerned about their future class. the fact that the country has been suffering economically wither inflation, which stands a temper sent or 11, which is the highest ever. and also with the foot prices which have been sky rocketing a think this has given people some sense of anxiety about the future. and this explains the voter of apathy that was really more pronounced in particular today i've been covington, his youthful men, money. yes. and there were moments where we would see long queues up pulling station or 2 hours before they open because there was this huge excitement of a vote. we would make a huge impact today, while we saw was quite different. really a small process of voters who took part in this particular election. but as i said initially earlier for president, hey cecilia, this is a decision that has to be made. this is just part of a long roadmap,

which is presented to the people. it continues to say, but what i did was basically to prevent tennessee from sliding to worse, a civil war. all right, thank you very much. we'll check in with you, hopefully a bit later as we get more information about more figures coming out from mass that election where turn out has only been 8.8 percent for now hush marlboro, in tune as thank here we go to peru now where the new present, employ tears urging congress to pass a bill to bring forward general elections in a national address, but what he said she won't resign despite protests getting worse. spreading to different cities demonstrate as a demanding early polls and the release of formerly the pedro castillo. he was impeached and attained on charges of rebellion and conspiracy last week, sparking the unrest. arianna sanchez joins me live from lima. so present boulevard a is taking a strong position on this. she is calling for early elections. why is the congress not buckingham good with weld mariam

congress in many police congress men are, have been at odds with the previous government than she is. are thought of a continuation of the previous government, especially the parties that arm with parties that are from the right wing, who say that the leveling parties want to change all the constitution. some of those are lawmakers that have a half said that they do not want to approve and bring the election forward yet. have some of them have said that they don't, they don't have to be told what to do. and some of them haven't called or do you know what the resignation and what some experts are explaining is members in congress wants to resign and then name a point, the president congress of the new president of the country, which is what would happen if you would resign but she has said that it's not time

for living. there is a time for for the, for lawmakers to listen to the demands of the people and listen what they want, which is to bring forward elections. and she has put some pressure this morning in her message to the nation. so saying that this is the time for them to listen to the people and approve and bring those selections forward. basically, elections and not. how are they going to be more protest? is it as simple as early poll, putting an end to these demonstrations? mm. move, move on. i think mary, i'm the 1st people are still very angry up what's going on in the country, and i think there will still be some progress now. we will have to see whether the message that they gave this morning will be heard by the people around the congregation house bill bridges. she has promised to listen to their demand. she

has sent also ministers to some of the most conflicted areas to start building. we're just, i'm talking to motion leaders, but she has, she has also offered to re some company that said that she will not resigned and she have literally put them all on the lawmakers. court told me to let people, man, and change until the most pressing demand, which is to change, to bring electric forward to change the cost to bring electron forward. mother mary, thank you very much. from lima. marianna general. what i'm watching out there. i live from london much more filter being on the program, despite corruption scandals and deepening divisions, south africa governing a and see needs to elect new leadership and a legacy of countertops. walcott designed to be flat actor refugee camps around the world. ah,

including lisbon as we had toward monday for the top end of africa, fairly quiet here, a few showers. so for southern tunisia on sunday, but where the bulk of the action is, is southern africa round. and moves and beacons and bob waste some big downpours here. now at the same time, things have cleared up for the western cape province in south africa. cape town has a high of 23 degrees on sunday. that's a snapshot of your weather bye for now. ah, [000:00:00;00]

with lou. oh, come back watching al jazeera life and london main stories are following. now. counting is well underway. internees is national parliamentary elections. the electoral commissions, as provisional turn out, was just below 9 percent, with opposition parties boycotting the vote. krasier of one 3rd place to well comp incatel beating rocco to one. now all eyes are on france and argentina for sunday's

final and peruse new present dealer. but what a is urging congress to pass a bill to bring for general elections in a national address, but what he said she won't resign despite the escalating protest. now and all the stories are following the russian back to authorities and ukraine's eastern city of danny. ask say 3 people were wounded in missile strikes by ukrainian forces. shelling occurred in the bodine of ski districts where people have been clearing the rubble, a circle done yet. people's republic is one of 4 areas. moscow annexed in september in a referendum, described as a sham by ukraine and its allies strikes follow fridays, wave of russian attacks when more than 70 missiles were fired at targets across ukraine. or her 2 shells, london, one i heard for sure. the 2nd one was like in a fault for our own house was destroyed. so he came here to live with our friends. and now this, you see, or ukranian authorities are working to restore electricity and water supplies

across the country after those attacks on friday. the missiles at critical energy facilities and forced ukraine to implement emergency blackouts. nationwide, charles stratford joins us live now from care of. and obviously we're in the middle of sub 0 freezing winter conditions, where if people do have access to water, it's freezing, cold, and electricity blackouts now in the country, how much progress are authorities making in, in trying to restore access for people will be understand that those efforts to restore access to heating electricity continue is very much a 24 hour challenge. as you rightly say, temperatures have dropped dramatically in recent days. this evening. actually tonight is actually warmer that it has been over the last couple of days. but yes, yesterday was one of the largest barrage of missile attacks on ukraine since this

war began. $76.00 missiles launched multiple targets, predominately energy targets, energy infrastructure across the country, 60 of which according to the ukrainians, were intercepted in the last couple of hours. the president followed him is lensky has said that electricity has been restored to 6000000 homes across the country. but it was only a couple of hours ago that we heard from the man of the capital city saying that at least 25 percent of residence in cave was still without heat. so it is still a very dire situation, both here in the capital city and multiple areas across the country. and of course, writing a puts in the criminal. and it said that this targeting of energy infrastructure is completely legitimate. he says that these are targets to the connected to the

ukrainian military. that is something that is completely obviously refuted by the ukrainians and. ready western backers that are continuing to say that these, this targeting about to a war crime for the sheer number of civilians that are affected by these attacks. we've been speaking to residence in kiev. and they saying that they're following the in the public domain, the schedules that the government has laid out, they're made available to the public saying, for example, your electricity is going to be cut off from this hour to this hour. be prepared for that residence, a saying that those schedules are inaccurate, possibly an indication of the kind of pressures that the authorities here and in trying to restore as much electricity and eat as they can. so despite it being much quieter today, and we haven't seen the barrel edge that we saw yesterday,

very worrying times ahead for literally hundreds of thousands of ukrainians across the country. as temperatures continue to drop. a thank you very much from keith charles stratford. internationally acclaimed iran in actress town on the alley. the city has been arrested. the charges against the not known, but iran state media is reporting. she's been detained because of recent negative comments about the executions of her testers. last month she posted a photo of herself without a headscarf holding assigned reading women life freedom have been protest in iran since september when 20 year old man. i mean, he died in police custody with south africa now, and the governing african national congress is electing its leadership as it battles. corruption, scandal, internal divisions, and declining support delegates or in john is both for the vote present. so rama poster is running for reelection as party leader on friday, protest is disrupted,

but also 5 of the top officials that is most important to given that it will direct the future of the a and see ultimately, especially at a time when the party and the leadership are facing a number of challenges, including the allegations of the ford and corruption of the governance running of south africa, south africans experiencing rolling blackouts. the economy is also performing slightly better than it did during cold, but 19, but many would say there's a lot of room to improve and of course, high level of unemployed people. so these are some of the issues a conference like this would have to tackle at some point. aside from dealing with the voting top membership on rest is growing in jordan because of high fuel prices . a police officer was killed at a protest in the southern region of mine on thursday, adding detention over the rising cost of living. since monahan has more,

these drivers are on strike. fuel prices in jordan have doubled in the past year. for many, it's making life a daily struggle, this on or shows one word to sum up, their demand, dignity, and the manner we joined the strike when we felt the effect to the extremely high fuel prices by fuel prices mean higher transportation costs, which in turn means spike in prices of goods used by jordanians. but while most rallies are peaceful, anger is growing. more and more people are joining the protest. often resulting in confrontations with the police. on thursday, a senior police officer was killed in my province, shot in the head during a demonstration. the king attended the funeral, a show of support for security forces. dozens of officers have been injured in recent unwrap. yeah, the government has promised a 0 tolerance approach to violence and the 100 we are dealing with the situation
