2:00 pm
i miss inaction will wake up call with the government. this is really something that's can make a turning point, or thrice, reach the citizens using both to old governments and corporations to account if they don't want to do it by asking, then let's go to the or the case for the client on just ah, london's high court gives the green light to the u. k. government plan to deport as san m sake is to rwanda. ah, hello, i'm emily anglin. this is al jazeera, alive from doha, also coming up. ah, said africans governing party relics, president still rem, oppose a, as it's later despond, accusations,
2:01 pm
he violated he's out of office. russian forces, target energy facilities and ukraine's capital with more drawn strikes. several areas in came out without power plus o writing on a high argentina winds. it's 3rd world come title, baiting france in tennessee, shootouts. ah, we begin with breaking news out of the u. k. where the london high court has ruled the government's plan to send to san am. sake is true, wanda, is legal. the plan to deportation policy was suspended in june after a last minute challenge for more on this alliance, bringing harry forces, who joins us live from the royal courts of justice in london. hello there, harry. these certainly was a major test of controversial policy. and the high court has ruled incontinence
2:02 pm
finds out what was said in the judgement. that's right, a law of justice lewis and mister justice swift, we're considering a number of cases challenging this very controversial policy. and they have rule that in principle, the government's policy of immediately dispatching asylum seekers who entered the united kingdom to another country, to rwanda for processing, and then potentially resettlement in that country. if there are, some applications are deemed valid that that is a lawful thing to do, that it doesn't reach the human rights act and it doesn't reach refugee policy either. and so that is now the judgement globally on this policy. but in the case of the 8 individual asylum seekers who've had the cases brought as part of this entire process in which serve also been challenges from a union and from a number of refugee charities. in those 8 individual cases,
2:03 pm
they've been sent back to the home office, the interior ministry in the u. k. because the court has deemed that their cases were not properly considered on their individual merits of the individual circumstances of the people involved. so if this judgement stands out, that will mean that in each of these cases, the government will have to prove that. but it, it can potentially as early next year start putting people on planes through honda . in miss policy, which i would see more than a $140000000.00 spent by the u. k. in rwanda, and would see people being processed in a detention center holding center there. and then potentially we settled there rather than the u. k. that is something that the government has prioritized saying it would be a deterrents to asylum seekers and, and migrants coming to this country, especially via the small boats. the way that we've seen coming across the english channel from france, it's something to lay them onto. the main opposition has cooled, immoral,
2:04 pm
and has been challenged in the courts to day. harry, once in nanc saw there any and the legal avenues there absolutely are. we are expecting, or which i that whichever sided last today would appeal. and i think that remains the case. we're waiting to hear in person from some of the charities involved in these challenges, but that was the very much the expectation. i also see reports that they will be a, a hearing to determine the possibility of, of setting this on to the court of appeal within the u. k. in january. and then even if the road runs out in terms of appeals within the u. k, there's also the possibility that it could go to the european court of human rights in strasburg as well. and that's where this becomes even more potentially controversial because the european court of human rights has the power to rule government policy unlawful. and so even if there were the kind of legislation that
2:05 pm
wishes to knock, the prime minister was talking about last week, new legislation to make it clear that mo asylum seeker, coming through what is determined not to be a legal and safe route into the u. k. will be allowed to settle here, that could be overturned by the european court of human rights as things stand. so will, and the prime minister has said all options are on the table. those been a bit more reluctant, and some of his empties to do this. will that mean that the u. k. might consider pulling out of the convention out of the court altogether, which would have all sorts of other ramifications, potentially in northern ireland in terms of the good friday agreement as well. so a lot still to go on this very controversial issue, but a major decision made here in favor of the government at the high court today. indeed, many mailing pants and the story, thanks and frankie, no damn press harry forces in london still in the u. k. and many ukrainians who have been welcome jane to host families facing uncertain future government has announced extra funding as refugees extend to best tanks, rank christmas,
2:06 pm
and highland reports from lincolnshire at a time of togetherness. for so many this will be a christmas like no other for a loaner and her 4 children far away from the place they still call home. they were forced to flee the bombardment of their ukrainian town and came to the u. k. sponsored by a host family, this feeling that the voice chasing me, it remained whole very long after we escaped. i'm obviously very glad that we were made these johnny and we are here and we we can leave though. i wish it had never happened. alona and her children lived with johnny and his family before finding her own house. but he still supports them. i think the
2:07 pm
thing that i found was to allow the or refugees the space to actually sort of recover to find the fe whiteford and assist them in, in actually moving forward with their lives more than a 140000 ukrainians. arrived in the u. k. under the homes, the ukraine scheme, but there are increasing concerns about rising levels of homelessness among refugees in lincoln, the efforts to support people who come here and deliver age back home this ongoing . but the uncertainty of what comes next is a worry. one couple we spoke to who didn't want to appear on camera told us they were asked by the host repeatedly when they are leaving. and we were told about a woman with young children who was given little notice to leave. she did eventually find another host, but 65 kilometers away. most of people are here with kate's and it's,
2:08 pm
it's really hard them to change again the school france and settle in a put new place without knowing if it's just with 6 months. or we will change again, many ukrainians have found unwavering support from those they live with, but worries of law or constant. sometimes we can forget for a moment about the war in ukraine, but of course we know that it is where a difficult doubt, tough time. so there are mod can change very easily from laughter to t us from smile to some said mod. yeah, i missed them because i can be around them now. so yeah, not easy. but as the year draws to a close, there's time to reflect on what has been a life changing experience, both here and in ukraine. emma haywood al jazeera lincoln in northern england, in ukraine. another wave of russian attacks is who the capital caves and military

said that an additional $3000000.00 homes had had electricity and heat restored to them since those attacks on friday. yes, this is another example of just how vulnerable ukraine and the capital city in particular is and how the russian seemingly can target these areas at will. but also an indication so far at least of just how effective this missile defense systems are that ukrainians have. but of course, they are continuously asking for more defensive systems because of course, these temperatures these winter temperatures continue to draw. we got a number of months at least 2 or 3 months of very heavy and difficult winter conditions ahead and potentially as millions of ukrainian civilians could be affected by these attacks to south africa where so roman pause has been reelected
