outlining why former president donald trump should face criminal charges. ah, hello, i'm darn jordan. this is out as they are alive from doha, also coming up ukrainian soldiers welcome you. as pledges of more help, but rush as president bloss the patriot missile system, only the u. s. brace is to what's being called a bomb cy clone. it's facing a white christmas that could be the cold list indicates flooding right on their doorstep. we've an update from malaysia on thousands of people forced from the hopes ah, the congressional panel investigating last year's attack on the u. s. capital has released its final report. it says former president donald trump criminally engage in a conspiracy to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and failed to

stop his supporters from attacking the building. the paneled says the insurrection greatly threatened democracy and put the lives of politicians at risk while she habitants he joins us live now from washington. d. c. she ab. so the jan 6th committee was under serious pressure to release this final report. what more is it going to tell us about the events around the attack on the capital? and they're under pressure because they're re months that the life of the select committee was a get it. and that the end of this year and with the republican controlled house in the new year, clearly there wasn't gonna be anymore. it up. there weren't going to be any more hearings a next year. so that releases report $845.00 pages. it is a summary that it may see the all encompassing summary off the 18 months of work and hearings, the over a 1000 witnesses, the over a 1000000 pages were told of documents. it's all in here. what we're being told this is it, this is the, this is the that, that draft of history for,

from the committee about what exactly happened. we know the broad parameters of the plan, which is helpful because clearly we haven't had a chance yet to read all 845 pages. but you can see from the index. it basically follows the same narrative structure that we saw during the committee hearings, which, which wo, that story of how donald trump even his votes were being counted on election night hatched a plan to try and steal the election. he did not want to appear a loser. he knowingly disseminated false information. he pressured the vice president, members of congress, local state officials for extra votes for to or to fudge, what were constitutional processes. and he ultimately failed. we know those board proud is this, is that documentary evidence which is the work of the committee which they want to be part of history but potentially also and we had this earlier on in the week part . busy off the any criminal investigations that may follow, this is a congressional committee vacant. they called institute criminal proceedings,

but clearly hoping that the information inside this, this enormous report will prove irresistible to prosecutors. yeah. as i say she had this report then gets referred to the department of justice, the dea jay, could spell even more legal troubles for donald trump. what happens next? what do you have its own? well, several investigation. is it on top of that one specifically now with it, with it, with a, a special investigator who's been, who's been empowered to look into a lot of these same issues who have a special investigator out the d j. because the old trump has declared himself a presidential candidate, the da j being a biden department of justice doesn't want to appear to be politically tainted in any way. so we have, we have this prosecutor with apparently impeccable credentials, not looking into that a lot of their own, the whole new investigatory materials. we don't know how much of this already overlaps what they, how we did that actually before this this, this, this new law was it was imposed. but also the d j would say that we've been really

helpful. we could see some of these documents and when the committee was always a bit snippy about that, we assume that this is everything that they feel is important, essential to build a case. but if the or j has its own investigation, it may or may not follow up the recommendations off off the committee, which clearly all are built around preventing donald trump from standing in the next election. we'll have to see, but this is up to the department of justice stuff. it was a deeply symbolic event for congress to refer a former president for prosecution to the department of justice, but largely symbolic, even if it was unprecedented. or does she have a challenge life or stay in washington dc shop? thank russian president vladimir putin as a choose the white house of fighting a proxy war in ukraine, saying the u. s. is using ukrainian soldiers instead of its own, able to dismiss the patriot missile system fledged by washington. no actual, closer to put us regarding patriot marseilles. it's

a relatively old system. it doesn't work as well as our s 300. no. nonetheless, those who were confronting us say this as a defense of weapon. well, okay, but they will always be an antidote. so the people who are doing this are doing it in vain. it's just prolonging the conflict. that's all i had given you. well, it follows a visit to washington by ukraine's president vladimir landscape. he met his polish counterpart on j duda on his way back to the capital key. the poles have been one of ukraine staunchest allies separately. zalinski has been invited to brussels for a ukraine, e u summit in february. but with them as a short term emotion was looked at. we're coming back from washington, we're coming back with good results. the ones that will really help us determine them. the victory will be ours, glory to every warrior of ours, glory to everyone who protects our country, and we bring to ukraine to don bass to pack much and to the south. she's the students which our defense courses awaited so little to day in a special format one on one we discussed with dude or our cooperation to you. i

told him what i heard in the u. s. which was about after teaching bitching of the upcoming year, were getting ready. we strengthen our joint forces, nauseous, beauty salon water has more from rushes capital. moscow has said clearly today that all 8 sent to ukraine by the united states patriot systems, or other would be legitimate targets to the russian army. also, the personnel that might be deployed with such systems to train or to operate the systems would be also a target for the russian army. we have heard this clearly my, the spokesperson of the kremlin misty, put cold. and also today there was something very important spoken by the chief of. 5 staff of the russian army general didn't get us him off. he said that the united states is active. the in getting involved in this conflict through

sending ad, supplying more weapons to clean this what moscow has clearly said it's will respond to the more arms being sent by the united states and other european and natal countries to ukraine that are also another scenario that would be possible, but it's not clear if russia would resort to such an option that would be launching an attack from the beller bella, russian, a territory to breast that would facilitate the russian army, reaching the city often leave. and thus cutting the main road that supplies weapons to ukraine through poland on the ground in ukraine. the city of buck moved continues to be the centre of fighting with russia, focusing its attacks that the fall ukrainian forces have held their ground and the territory that russia could use to advance on other cities,

has been lensky has a cause. moscow, changing the city into burn ruins. charles dropped, but it monitoring the fighting on the capital key. moot is undeniably one of the hottest places along that 1300 kilometer front line to city that has been fought for with increasing intensity. i suppose over the last 5 months of this 10 months war and it's bad to say that suddenly in the last month or so, the russians have made very little advance. we know that the fighting is especially a tense in the east of the city. this is a place that is now being called a meat grinder, and that's with reference to that world war. one battle is a very done where tens of thousands of soldiers were killed. we understand the thousands of ukrainians and russian soldiers have been killed in the battle for back moot, many civilians as well. we also know that there are still surprisingly quite

a few civilians in that town. refusing to leave la z, as is usually the case because they have nowhere else to go and they're worried about their properties. but mood is strategically important because it is potentially a gateway to other large cities in the don't it's region, the city of criminals and slob yonce. but it's fair to say that the situation has come to a very brutal war of attrition and a stalemate. a severe winter storm is sweeping across the united states, the snow and extremely cold weather. come insides with a start of the holiday, travel season. particle have has the latest for many wishing for a white christmas, but not like this. a massive storm is sweeping across the entire us. 75 percent of the population will be living with freezing temperatures by weeks at the storm. extreme cold weather you can see on the map, the estimated areas you know as low as 50 degrees, whereas head dark,

red kilo 0 days and threatening. this is really a very serious weather alert here. it's a storm so big. it has a name elliott, the ice apocalypse has coming upon us. the talk concern the temperature on wednesday in wyoming. the temperature dropped 17 degrees celsius in just 9 minutes . meteorologist are predicting, the storm will soon get another name because of that. a bomb psych loan, that is when the atmospheric pressure drops at least $24.00 mill bars over 24 hours . the same pressure as a category 3 hurricane. and it's going to be widespread, sweeping down to the south as far as texas and other states that usually don't experience extreme cold. heavy snowfall will also be an issue with wind gusts expected in some places, as high as 80 kilometers an hour. that can create white out conditions and the potential for people to become trapped in their cars,

in temperatures that can be fatal. and it's coming right in the middle of the busiest travel season of the year. thousands of flights have been canceled, hired dr. hungry just hopeless. honestly, the national weather service is calling this storm a once in a generation type event for much of america, a white christmas, but the coldest one, it's been in for decades. patty call hain al jazeera. and this is maggie vesper. as mo, from belvedere in illinois, we are getting down to the 0 our here in the midwest and out east to get on the road and get to where you want to go for the holiday as this or makes its way east . millions across the mid west and beyond, waking up to blizzard warnings and back 8 states and counting now under blizzard warnings from montana and the dakotas out to western new york. also a growing number of governors, including in kentucky, most recently declaring states of emergency, the governor of indiana,

ah, hello. it looks pretty unsettled for much of the middle east as we go on through the next couple of days at the fair, but a class to sneezing, out of the caucasus, sinking further south with a look at that mass of wet weather, northern parts of saudi arabia from mecca and all the sections of the gulf rockaway, we'll see some very heavy rainfall here in doha. his days largely dry. fine. not too bad here. 25 celsius for friday. tank warm as we go on through. ashley with that southerly breeze. pushing free, but as that suddenly meets up with the cooler air coming in from the north. washburn snow over the high ground of iran, garage of showers. therefore much of a round. it will at least be a lot. drive towards the la montana cost much those northern sections of saudi arabia. we got a few showers also affecting the north east of africa into,

or egypt to run the coastal fringes or them hearts of where libya also seeing some of that wet weather. but for much of north africa it is dry. we have got the lifted dust and sand pushing out to chat, nicea into molly, maybe to martinez. well, while she dried down across the much of west africa through the gulf of guinea, and then the heavy showers rode across the tropics there, pushing the way right across the northern parts of zimbabwe. more wet weather to into northern areas of mozambie and tanzania. ah, it's one of the biggest clubs in south america. but its greatest rival is just a few blocks away. a mutual dislike between funds formed from a close divide, sustained over generations. most bulky, junior supporters are born into these club colors. in an epic feud of rich versus

poor, the funds will make football on al jazeera now oh, well, come back to my to the top stories here, this ality congressional panel investigating lost his attack on the u. s. capital has released its final report. it says former president donald trump criminally engaged in a conspiracy to overturn the results of the 2020 election and failed to stop his supporters attacking the building. russian president vladimir putin as accuse the white house of fighting a proxy war, saying the u. s. is using ukrainian soldiers instead of its own fall as a visit to washington by ukraine's president little miss lensky. and

a severe winter storm has hit the us. the national weather service is calling it the coldest in 40 is snow, and freezing temperatures are disrupting holiday season. travel for millions of people. now, tens of thousands of people have been displaced by flooding in malaysia of the days of heavy monsoon reign. the northern states of cal, i'm done and that i'm gonna have been worst hit roads. house isn't. cars have been submerged. emergency services say at least 5 people have been killed from, it still has more from turn gone, state flood waters are receding, but quite slowly. in some places it hasn't rain much in the last 2 days. so that has helped the number of people taking shelter in temporary flood relief centers. now at its peak with 70000, but that has now reduced 250000. nearly all of the displays to our inclin done entering guy new states which are the worst affected. now, many more towns and villages, though, are now assessable by 4 wheel drive and other vehicles, when previously they could only been reached by boat. but of course,

now with people returning home, it's time for them to assess just how badly their homes have been damaged. um, and they begin the slow process of cleaning up their homes. for many of these people, not only will their homes have to be repaired or rebuilt, but also the, the, their belongings, their vehicles may have to be replaced. and just behind me as well. if you can see the river over there, you can, i'm sure you can see the river bank that gives an indication of just how high the water levels in rivers rose, but of course it has now receded. the government has also said it's going to give financial aid to families affected by floods, but many people here say that while that will help ease that suffering. it is not enough that they do want a long term plans to help deal with this. now in some parts of the country, the government has fortified embankments that the river overflow will not um, cause floods, but resident say that also causes problems because then flood waters are much slower to recede. so let's bring in charles santiago. he's a former malaysian m p and a one time chairman of malaysia water commissioner joins us live from the capital

column for charles. good to have you with a citizen back in september, you warned about this risk of flooding. i understand what's your experience about flooding in your former constituency and has the government done enough? you think in terms of flood planning and preparation. ok, thanks for inviting me for this program, but i think as you for as you're on your list, make sure. ah, this is a recording problem that i will get and it's getting worse by the year. i have to devote stating i, she points out. i think the numbers are 1000. i think the, the, the, the impact on the, the poor, the middle classes in mama's, it, mama's, on the model. what i saw last year, or the amount of stress, the volume of what you see shocking. you get the impression mason behind you i, which is about 2 feet away. maybe 10 feet away. but it is like a river,

a huge river in a main road in militia r d c. i think it's a vacation. oh, how bad things are and visit us every year, every year without it. and it shows our lack of planning. are we planning? ah, and it also shows that our disaster, early warning system. it's not effectively what i like. another is yet adult charles, you know, so now seeing these devastating floods the pictures and our screens of northern states like helen tan terran gonna, why do you think the states have been hit so hard this see, and what's being done to help that, that the 10s of thousands of people that you just mentioned who've been displaced. i, laura, this blood actually be also a very high levels of extremely high levels of rain that coupled with deforestation in plant antagonist has also contributed to the flux that you see earlier on wants . and 10 years, you know, not guineas every year. and it comes to november and december, they suddenly are,

you know, people, i get fearful a lot of fun. but, you know, of course, you know, it was, i'm a change. but i think that would be to really the high level of rain. i get cross anywhere between a $15200.00 and i had any one time. so, and also our plane age, our drainage and irrigation has not been improved or has not been updated. our last years. ok, but one is the policy. yeah, i'm gonna jump in here because i pushed the time. i mean that the, the number of people displaced by the floods this year seems to have caught the government and the states themselves by surprise. there is a serious criticism about a lack of resources, even some relief centers in turn gone. i don't even have enough food. exactly. that's is the whole point. i mean, the number is 70000. i just checked the latest on the. it was a 100000 people who i in the world. i've been a i in state of plan pentagon or are and this is not the wish there was,

is yet to happen. i. it's going to be the next speech. are the metallurgical stage harmless yet? he said the domains melissa, ali said it's going to get us be prepared. and as i pointed out earlier, our system of operation equals poor level of disaster management and been going on for far too long. so my recommendation would be the doesn't go with it, right. i and i'm planning out not it was the end of the year when it's good. it's just just a, just a final point to you. i mean, you pointed this out, but some of the other say, the flooding seems to be getting worse in malaysia every year. do you think we thing a link to climate change perhaps now we like them to see yet more devastating floods in the future is, are clearly climate changes middle for the role? ah, and that is what the one in the kitchen on the unprecedented levels of rain, high levels of rainfall, huge that combined with our deforestation or ours,

our for us together with the lack of increase i in the upgrade or a day that you need a geisha on mine to that and also for maintenance needs for the mason was ah, for, for almost all the entire country is not what you do. i think i understand and i went over the plan for the better. we have all of the 4 issues that i just mentioned, char santiago, really good to get your thoughts. thank you very much for talking to al jazeera. thank your child. now, a hospital in china's biggest city says half the population of 25000000. could be infected with koby 19 by the end of next week. china, seeing a surgeon cases off of the government, began eating restrictions this month. falling a wave of protests, the shanghai busy hospital as told it stopped the bear for a tragic battle. world health organization says it's concerned about china. it's calling on basing to provide more detailed information on the spread of cases. oksana pacific is from university college, london. she says,

china is vulnerable to a major outbreak. there is an immunity gap due to the 0 coven policy, which means that the majority of the population has not yet been exposed. and we do have an elderly population that been backing hesitant and it's been difficult to get the home grown vaccine available to this population. so those 2 factors mean that over 60 percent of the population can be hit in the next 90 days. and it's going to be very difficult to combat the tidal wave of covet 19 in the wake of what has been really a 3 years of quite severe cubic restriction. but some described as draconian, but it did in fact prevent many debts. and we're seeing sort of the, almost the consequence of that success now because there are many people that will be experiencing who for the 1st time. so i think that there's also an issue here

that we could see not, not just myself, but other models predict that over 1000000 people. i could end of died from cove it as a result of not just this way, but the consequent waves that will emerge from the current outbreaks. several homes have been destroyed in a wildfire in chinney, nearly 805 fighters via del mar, have been deployed to stop the fast moving blaze. a long dry spell and a record heat wave, a fuel the flames. more than 7000 the heck. as far as i've been taught so far, israel's new government is shaping up to be the most right wing and the nation's history. why minister benjamin netanyahu secured a last minute deal to form a coalition on wednesday. the agreement follows weeks of negotiations with religious and far right partners. netanyahu's alliance, one last month's election, which was israel's 5th in 4 years. but taliban have reportedly arrested 5 women for protesting against the closure of afghan universities to female students. the

education ministry says the ban was imposed because women have not followed its interpretation of islamic dress code. girls are already banned from secondary schools, parks. jim's, i'm good of all my dad. the taliban came today. they beat us and kicked us out of the training center and said that you no longer had the right to study more. we are in a very bad situation. the girls here, they've lost this perez, the founder of the failed crypto currency exchange f t x. as appeared in the us court after being expedited from the bahamas on fraud charges, prosecutor sent you some bank, min fried, of stealing billions in customer funds to cover losses at his hedge fund. ill be under house arrest while he awaits trial crystal, flew me as mona from new york. this is the 1st time that sam, bank, men fried, was formally charged. in this case, he is facing 8 counts that include money laundering, and fraud, as well as campaign finance violations. he was flown from the bahamas,

arrested in the book in the bahamas, where he was living, and a, his crypto exchange was based at the request of us authorities. us authorities said that because he agreed to extradition and because his own wealth had decreased so much, they agreed that he could be released on bail if his family put up $250000000.00 in security. and as long as he agreed to electronic monitoring of his whereabouts, so now sam, bagman fried, said very little in the court house himself. ah, he agreed to those conditions. and that said that he understood that his family would have to forfeit that money if he did not show up for his court appearances. but his attorneys have said in court papers that he wanted to come back to the united states and make his customers haul. now with rising costs and increasingly

constrained government spending, public services in the u. k. or under intense pressure the hell such as getting much of the attention. but education is also feeling the strain or challenge has been to a primary school in london to see their unusual solution to funding crisis. ah, my, the children of born croft primary school be heading the musical started ah, his or boy whose parents handling video and editing with this cover of an eighty's pop classic he or the voice by john farnham, that shooting for that most hallowed british traditions topping the charts with christmas. number one single. ah not for 14, you're fine though. they're much more modest aim is to keep their school lights on

and their teachers employed. ah, i've been a teacher since the late ninety's. ah, this is the worst i've ever known it. bon crosshead says the school is in a huge financial black hole and it's not alone. it's absolutely country light. and i think if you spoke to any had teacher in the country, they would say that their school has been really badly hit by this. earlier in the year, teachers wages went up barks. the government did not give schools the money to pay for this, leaving them with serious budget deficits. bancroft hopes they can raise enough money to buy solar panels for the roof. cutting soaring energy bills might mean the school won't have to make staff redundancy in a year or 2, the teaching assistants that vulnerable and special needs children rely on for support. despite having fun with the video, the situation has left parents despondent. i'm really angry and you know, our children, they, they, you know,

we say like our children on the future really we need to invest in them. it's a bigger problem is affecting schools everywhere and, and if it's very, very ring for the future of education in the whole country, you're the voice and trying on this. oh, making noise in may get, ah, mum, sings in. i can read that. he runs in every day lima layer and you can't just once and then i basically knew just was i gave you said he got another and he knew an old one practice a christmas number one would of course be a fantastic present for the kids and the parents of driscoll, but a better one would be the funding they need. indeed, the funding that every cast straps school across this country needs and isn't receiving at the moment or a challenge out as era london. ah .
