5:00 am
shall say that transmission of this virus among humans is very rare, but they're worried because the summer season is about to begin from around the world formula. we probably be okay, living in a building like this with blurred out windows when the temperature plummets, such conditions really take that whole ah ukrainian president vladimir zalinski is expected to visit the us on wednesday. his 1st trip abroad since rushed his invasion. ah. hello them laura kyle, this is al jazeera live from doha. also coming up taliban government bonds, university education for all female students across afghanistan. cruise congress votes on the bringing for the elections and
5:01 am
a bid to ease political tensions. and the u. k. is winter of discontent. nurses walk off the job again over no pay and patients salary. ah ukrainian president brought a bad zalinski is expected to visit the us on wednesday. it would be his 1st trip overseas since the russian invasion in february, article hanging as life was to in washington d. c. and patty, this news has taken many by surprise. what do we know? i know of surprise was captain washington, who up until the very last minute we're starting to get a better idea of what we think is going to happen tomorrow. we think that you creating president, florida marysville and going to meet one on one with president joe biden. this likely going to happen at the white house, have more meetings then he's probably we believe going to give a speech to
5:02 am
a joint session of congress. that is an honor that isn't given out to very many people. and because it's zalinski, it's likely that several news organizations will carry it live. so in essence, be a live speech to the nation. most likely in prime time. we don't really understand the timing. we haven't gotten the details of the timing of why now, but it could have something to do with the fact that republicans are going to take a very slim majority in the house of representatives in the coming weeks. and they have been very vocal about saying they want to continue a ukraine, but they want to have some restrictions on as to more ways of tracking it, excuse me. and there is some evidence that the poles could be a cause for concern for the ukrainian people. because one poll among republican members, although the vast majority of americans still support sending military and economic aid to ukraine. a pole of republicans show when it came to military aid,
5:03 am
just 55 percent, still agreed that that should be done. and that was down from 80 percent before in the last poll. and when it came to economic aid that was 50 percent down from 3 quarters of those in the spring. who said that that age should continue. still, that's more of the general public members of congress, very much. the vast majority still seem on board with getting age ukraine in this bill that they have to approve to keep the government open. they are given $45000000000.00 to crane. that's more than even president joe biden asked for. he had asked for 37000000000 in support. so coming here to speak to the members of congress to the president, but mostly the american people, because that is the support that is going to keep congress on the president motivated by the details of new military a to be announced. what is this going to be and what's going to mean for the fight in ukraine? what we think that they're going to say that there's going to be patriot missiles included in the next tranches they call. busy of military aid,
5:04 am
and when you hear patriot missiles, a lot of people think, well that's a game changer. well, it is a very effective defensive weapon, but it is an expensive one. each bullet each shall basically cost $4000000.00. so you're not going to use that to necessarily knock down a $50000.00 drone that's been causing to have it to the electricity system. but it is good at long range, fire somewhat highly accurate when it comes to cruise missiles, those sorts of things. but what the question is going to be, how many are they going to give them? one patriot battery can basically protect something like an air base. it's not going to be able to protect the entire city the size of keys. so we're really looking to see exactly what the numbers are and that other things that i'm talking about is including j t. m. now what j dams means it's a kit, basically it, it takes a dum bomb and it turns it into a smart farm. it basically says ok, now you can hit this location with pinpoint accuracy. there is some complications with ad just like with the patriot. not sure how they're going to get the kids.
5:05 am
it's made for american bombs to fit on ukrainian bombs. and it's not clear how quickly all this is going to make a difference for the patriot battery, for example, it takes a team of 90 people, at least to operate the patriot system you created, you're going to have to come out of ukraine to a 3rd country to learn how to use the equipment, learn how to fix the equipment, learn how to move the equipment. so although ukraine has been asking since the beginning for these patriot batteries is not going to be helping on the battlefield anytime soon. ok, patrick. okay, call. hey, for yes, the latest from washington. thanks very much bye. well, earlier the ukranian president paid a visit to the eastern front line in the ukraine. the city of black lit and presented awards to ukrainian soldiers back might have had some of the heaviest fighting with russians and just now considered to be the conflict epicenter local source had told out of their russian forces. i'm fight from the wagner group of last some of the positions on the southern side of the city control of backward
5:06 am
would give the criminal a boost in the battle for the don bass region. yeah. which is because of the show move on the bicycle, which i want to say that we see what remains of where they left. nothing is alive with this issue isn't just in the don bus. that is why i want to tell you here and dumbass, you protect the whole of you crime because after don bus, they will do all this and other cities of our country because they don't want anything ukrainian. i am 100 percent sure of us. and therefore, the protection of the whole of ukraine rests on your shoulder, like not just on bus, dr. cha suffered as in the key region and has more and the impact of recent russian attacks on energy infrastructure. this is one of more than 100 electric substations country wide across ukraine. as you can see, the level of destruction here, this particular substation has been hit in 3 separate attacks by 6 russian missiles . the software tell us that the electrical plant supplies around $600000.00
5:07 am
people with electricity, those people now having to undergo an ensure rolling blackouts as this substation tries to distribute as much power as it can obviously after these attacks. what so interesting though, is that this, like many of those substations was built during the soviet era, this particular one in 1958. and that means that the russians know pretty much exactly how this grid works. and incredibly, it was only 4 hours before the invasion that the ukrainians, disconnected from the russian and bella, russian, electrical systems, live them. we'll see the joy, most of where we all feel like we are in the 1st line of energy defense. all ukrainians are looking at us with hope that we can return a light and heating to their homes with all teams or working round the clock,
5:08 am
ignoring the freezing conditions. so much equipment has been destroyed and our company doesn't have enough spare parts to restore electricity to all civilians, all the time. ukraine's president vladimir zalinski on december, the 13th said, restoring the country's progress could cost more than $1500000000.00. damage then meant a shortfall of 2.5 gigawatts. so that was before 2 more massive drone and missile bombardments targeted the country's energy infrastructure. as an example of just how well russia knows this electrical grid system. this was an electrical transformer and it's taken a direct hit. the staff here tell us that it contained 60 tons of oil and the blaze after the bloss, they say, took around 5 hours to close out the substation. and more than $100.00, like it across the country, our own constant alert,
5:09 am
they could be an attack at any time, the estimated cost of repairing the damage. here the stock tell us could be tens of millions of dollars. and this is just one of what the ukrainian authorities say is around a 1000 kamikaze drone and miss all attacks against vital infrastructure stations like this across the country. the afghanistan taliban rulers have banned all female students from attending universities. the latest government order cracking down on women's rights takes effect immediately. girls have already been banned from middle schools and high schools. foreign governments included the u. s. have set a change in policy and women's education is needed before it can consider fully recognizing the taliban government. or by de la, by here at the university lecture and the founder of the campaign, lead african girls learn. he says the decision is
5:10 am
a huge set back for women in the country. this is a recurring nightmare, a recurring nightmare stretching over generations. the same 990 s over this is august 15th again, this is march 23rd when the band girls from going to high school all over again. we use something like this was going to happen almost 2 months ago. there were rumors going around and rumors that had a lot of a verification to it and authenticity to it that something like this was going to happen, which is why we did our campaign and, and kept going with our campaign in the point was to show the toddler, on show the world that there were going to be repercussions for such a bad to happen. but honestly, it's just, i wish i was wrong. i wish we were all wrong, and we've been sleep walking through the day and waiting for it to sink in. so we
5:11 am
can at least figure out what to do next. and the problem isn't that, that this is a temporary done or a change in conditions going to occur because this excuse has been running since the ninety's. the reason women are banned from parks from, from schools, from a public bots, from jim's, even when they're segregated, is always some or another logistical. busy excuse, and time is asked for and seems like the more time we give them the worst things get. i mean, i was put into shackles a few days ago and told that my crime was campaigning for girls education. and the reason was that they were very soon going to resolve it. that's what the authorities were telling me then. and look, even those people didn't know what was going to come next. and so, i mean,
5:12 am
yeah it's, it's time to re evaluate what we've been doing. it looks like every move done by the international community towards the polar bond has only appeased them, only embolden them. and it's, it's time to discuss difficult options for all of us. peruse, congress has voted in favor of a plan to bring elections. ford to april 2024. an early poll has been a key to bond amongst protestors following the arrest of former president, petro casea proves, in days of violence, since fear was impeached and imprisoned. earlier this month, congress had been resisting calls to move out the vote from 2026. but the president dina blew a of them to reconsider by an sanchez has more from lima. make us hold it 90 in favor, 30 against and one abstention to bring forward elections to april of 2024. that is 2 years ahead of when the presidential mandate should end. but it was
5:13 am
a precedent. do you not want to be who sent this bill? to congress and told lawmakers that they should listen to the people's amanda, 83 percent of peruvians wanted new elections. now, lawmakers here say they hope this is a positive message for peruvians. peruvians are deeply disappointed with the proving congress. and i actually would, it would proven political establishment and they want to bring elections forward, no matter what. okay. now we needed to do it orderly. okay. and that means doing it by april 2024. okay. so hopefully people will understand that this is the best we can do if we want to have lectures with reforms. well, this is not the end. this boat needs to be ratified in a 2nd legislative period, which should be taking place next year between february and march. but many are hoping that for now, this vote to bring election for elections forward will help bring down the tensions

5:25 am
were convicted and executed. by contrast, for many years, neither east nor west german authorities pursued many who'd worked at the camp through the courts. only in the last few years as that changed with trials like this one does goody, is not good on guy provides. the court has decided that through her work as a short hand typist at the concentration camp, the accused knowingly and willingly supported the cruel death of more than 10500 prisoners through guessing through the inhumane conditions at the camp. through transferred to the ash which spoken our concentration camp and through death matches shoot off was just one camp among the many and the nazis system is death. toll was dwarfed by that of outfits and of treblinka. and yet by bringing him god, faulkner to justice, modern prosecutors have done what generations of postwar predecessors so often failed to do, actively pursue those who had a hand in the machinery of mass murder. dominant came al,
