us. russia has lost everything it could this year, but it is trying to compensate for its losses with the gloating over propagandists after themselves strikes in our country on our energy sector. i know the doctors will not prevent us from bringing the invaders to their new defeats, but we must be ready for any scenario. russia lodge ball strikes all the city of club dos on sunday. charles stratford has more of that, as well as the energy crisis facing ukrainians. after weeks of these, this campaign by moscow targeting energy infrastructure, we know that millions of ukrainians are suffering these rolling blackouts as deals ortiz try and get as much electricity to as many people as they can with so many of these substations having being hit and of course harsh winter conditions, many people with very little heat as well. and meanwhile, the shelling and the fighting continues. we heard from the sources in the eastern

city of cremmit, sourced the day reporting at least 3 missiles strikes and no specification as to what exactly was hit and no casualties. but it's interesting that graham, it's all, this is the 2nd day that graham, it's all because mean it cremmit also is basically one of the 2 largest urban centers. internet's still under ukrainian control. and it's relatively close to that hot, small town of buck moot, where we have seen and continue to see some of the most intense fighting of this war so far. neither the russians nor the ukrainians really making any progress. certainly the ukrainian food seemingly keeping them back as russia makes probing attacks from the north and the south trying to surround that city. 3 ukrainian emergency service work has been killed in an explosion. official save them and died while clearing mines in the hash on region. it comes

a coalition with another communist party. how is the name the fierce one after he fought the poles, monarchy in the 1990 molten. $17000.00 people died of the violence which lasted a decade. 2022 has been a chaotic year. the british politics, the u. k. has had 3 prime ministers, full finance ministers, and 3 interior ministers. it's been the butt of jokes internationally, but as under simmons explains, british people haven't had much to laugh about. his report contains flashing video in britain they call christmas this season of goodwill. but you won't find much bonham me here, downing street in 2022 produced pantomime style politics. it might have been funny if the consequences weren't so serious. forest johnson led the way so called party gate dragged on a police investigation, a fine for johnson. oh,

big rooms were broken and that is what i have been repeatedly assured. and when photos emerged, the story changed. it did not occur to me that this might have been a breach of the rules. he lied and frequently. and after a while, people didn't take seriously what he said, there is no doubt that the office of prime minister has been demeaned over the over the past year up boris johnson became a joke. the parliamentary party eventually decided johnson was a liability. many commentators described it as the downing street so proper. firstly, forest johnson simply had to go against his well, his parting words as to love this, the baby. i'll be back then. liz truss. she's been described as playing the leading part in a psycho drama. and then enter stage right richie soon act no friend of less trust

. and his nickname, the invisible man, sudak was dubbed the invisible man because he's been keeping a low profile with his conservative party so split support can't be guaranteed. to interesting to see, he only had to look back on the debacle of the list trust premier ship to realize how quickly back bench mpg can get rid of their leader. she proposed massive unfunded tax cuts, but the sums didn't add up, and she blamed her friend and finance minister quasi caught saying we did a new approach for a new era. oh was a currency freefall and ballooning cost of government borrowing. she fired him, but it didn't stop an almighty financial crush. she told the truth, i am a fighter and not to my dental slayton to his majesty the king,

to notify him the i am resigning as leader of the conservative party. britain was a laughing stock world wide. one newspaper here featured afresh. let his web cam would it outlast bliss? trust. yes. but with inflation now it's a 41 year high. no one's laughing. strikes over, paid him, owns a bound hitting public services that frequent. and that causing major disruption. the royal mail, the trains, the national health service hit by paramedics and nurses working out. c i think his government, especially after we saw what ms process on and collect public finances. and i think his government is fits on a swing shot. let laurie complex health care system won't be any chess, but can we, she sooner get away from the invisible man image and set things. of course, again, he's a bit boring so far,

but i think he would be quite happy to be boring. and i think quite a lot of voters would be quite relieved to have a boring prime minister and boring politics for a while. but maybe just, maybe this is a time for managerial problem solving at rather than vision. so there could be no humorous ending to the farce of british politics in 2020. there's an irony instead, the u. k. was promised tax cuts, spoilers trust. instead. it's now way down with the biggest tax burden since the 1950s. andrew symonds, how to 0 london. well, 2022 was also the year. the technology industry in the us came crashing to earth. after flying high on pandemic era prophets, rob reynolds explains why all went wrong so very quickly. tough times in silicon valley. more than 200000 tech company employees laid off major company

revenues down the dow jones s and p tech stock index falling nearly one 3rd to h i to was a very tough here in tech. in part because we were paying for past since over exuberance, over hiring, over expectations, an hour in a trough and is likely it's going to last for another year. so what's behind the bust? many tech companies spent too much during the pandemic. when consumers were stuck at home practically living online, they over invested and hired a lot of people in very short amount of time. as the virus waned, consumer habits changed, although the online buying hangover remain, snarled supply chains, inflation and higher interest rates, along with the expectation of a recession all combined in a big macro economic mass. in addition, some top tech executives blundered facebook seems to be pursuing

a mark sucker burbs, great white whale of the met averse russia, and he believes it, that's the future of tech. oh, we're all going to go live in cyberspace. and he spent hundreds of millions of dollars pursuing it and he hasn't had much to show for it. so facebook stock, they've lost billions over this obsession of his in october ilan mosque, marched into twitter headquarters in san francisco and soon began firing employees left and right, including most of the content, moderation staff, partly as a result of those cuts and policy changes. hate speech has increased dramatically on the platform. for example, anti semitic postings on twitter increased more than 60 percent in the weeks after mosques take over racist and extremist posts have also risen dramatically. these changes have alarm industry analysts and human rights advocates to me off.

tremendous concern you know, setting at presidents an example where a popular platform with millions of use us are having such completely 0 moderation, isis related, i call and have tripled. it's not just hate speech, so it's a, i think it's also national security issues. recent history shows, however, that while companies rise and fall tech always bounces back, recessions are good for entrepreneurship, is because you have free time, you been laid off. so you go to starbucks and sit there at a table. and you can hire people who've also been laid off. you can't tell by the people sitting there which tables a winner, but one of those tables is going to create a multi $1000000000.00. you know, unicorn, company, silicon valley is full of talent, ideas and money,

which eventually combine to start the next cycle of boom and bust. rob reynolds al jazeera los angeles, brazil's incoming justice minister, threatening to take action against supporters of outgoing present rival scenario for testers, have been gathering on the basis of bolts and already lost the election to luis, and i feel it a silver. they want the military to overturn the result. the minister says police discovered a bomb as a protest site on saturday. well, the jury farmers suffered serious losses during floods this year. the government is offering support, but as them address reports from the northwest, many aren't getting the help that they really need. the floods the submerged boast of nigeria, coastal communities between august and october, destroyed tens of thousands of actors of farmland. but agriculture authorities say the torrential rains have left behind rich, alleviate deposits and moisture which has improved the quality of this oil. and

that's what ties use our bos hoppy will boost his mace harvest. unless i will tell if you like a tight human from what we got free seeds and fertilizers. if this crop fails, we could be in serious trouble. and as it will determine whether we survive were star before the planting season government, the government is providing small scale farmers like touchy with fertilizer and improved maturing seats. it'll provide os 80 for the hamas to use. there is either moisture and, and bland cross. and also that would have a thought of it, but there isn't enough to go around. officials admit only a fraction of the hundreds of thousands of farmers affected by the floods earlier this year will benefit from a government initiative to help them take advantage of the residual moisture left behind by the flights. which means many of them now in debt face an uncertain future. i've lost income and access to food. the government has yet to

determine the extent of damage economy, say the unknown losses. floods cost to nigeria, agricultural industry are unsustainable. all the more reason they say why farmers should move from rain fit agriculture to irrigation. ahmed edris al jazeera, with the farmers actors and even u. s. presidents have all the famous panama hat, but despite what many believe they're not, and never were from panama or latin america to lucy newman explains from monte christie in ecuador. this is the story of one of the world's most famous and yet misnamed hats. for more than a 120 years mules had been bringing to keep home fiber from the hills surrounding monta. could he see near the pacific coast of ecuador for levied by chai, is a 3rd generation had artisan the effect leaving country. and it's very tough job

because you have to cook the palm fiber, you have to split it and put it to dry in the sun, afterwards, wash it, and curate it a lot. but that's just the beginning of an exquisite craft, though they've been there in a habit i. this was we were. the best strands are specially selected if it, if they aren't naturally. but then by that they have to be worked and prepared until they are all identical and have the same color. so you can imagine the effort . this implies young working and weaving something that is so fine, we can go on it. but child great grandfather was one of the 1st to commercialize the monte christie hats and exploit them to panama at the beginning of the 1900s. i got him during the building of the panama canal, former u. s. president theodore roosevelt was given one and fell in love with it. nick naming it the panama hat. however undeserving that name has stuck to this day. the more welts the had has the more flexible and light it is

almost like fabric yet it's strong and can last for up to 20 years. it did, but i got 9. know and is it? oh god, no. this is way too difficult. i've been trying and trying, i just can't get it right. this weaving technique is so complicated and not to mention uncomfortable the position. so let me tell you, this is not easy. work. pitch eyes, 84 year old father began making them when he was 8. it brace you cause it by the price one gets is very little compared to the time it takes to make these hats. so unfortunately, less people are making them these days. i am so if we feel that unless some of the finest hats can take up to a year to weave, but the artisans rarely fetch more than $1800.00, even when they're sold abroad to the rich and famous for up to $25000.00. still his grand.
