see what we're going to look at, what's next for the industry as it struggles to regain trust. kind of the cost on all just talk to al jazeera. we also do believe that women of afghanistan were somehow abandoned by the international community. we listen, we have a huge price for the rural. i'm going to 10 or is it going on for money? we meet with global news makers. i'm talk about the stories that went out to sierra as 2022 jewels to a place. we were slacked on the major stories hid shatelle joy now g 0 per series of in depth, of looking back at this year and ahead to 2022. ah, this is al jazeera.

ah, hello, i'm sammy's a them. this is the news. our live from dell hot coming up the next 60 minutes. dozens of ringer refugees make it to land. the un face at least a 180 others a dead. ha ha, ha ha! marching in honor of 3 people who are killed when a gunman opened fire the kurdish counsel center in paris. a deep freeze in march of the u. s. as a major winter storm leaves at least 30 people dead and tens of thousands without power. we take a look back at britain's political roller coaster in 2022 here that saw 3 prime ministers, ballooning inflation and the wave of stripes. ah,

we begin the news with what the united nation says is one of the worst years for a hinge as it see. the un refugee agency says at least a 180 ring refugees who were stranded for weeks after leaving bangladesh now presumed dead. this comes a day after 58 people arrived at indonesia, northern r j province. after weeks at sea. more than 1000000 of the minority must sims, who flies persecution in man, mass, a living in crowded camps in bangladesh rights group say the number of refugees risking the dangerous journey to malaysia or indonesia has increased 500 percent this year. have a child re, has this update from danica right now the condition in the camp is a desperate liar. high crime rate, inter rival gang violence in the camp. many of the refugees i spoke to said the violence is very, very intense. and they want to leave the camp. there is no opportunity for jobs or

any kind of means to earn living. and without any hope uncertainty, there is no differentiation process. there's no international, serious involvement in getting this refugees back to me on my end, right? kind states, and we also know there is a serious, intense insurgency battle between, but these are our kind rebels and the government forces which have gradually moving towards the bangladesh border. so considering this and also the fact many ro hang a woman actually gets married over the phone with a male who are living in southeast asia, mostly in malaysia. there is another reason. so there is a desperate attempt to leave the camp by a rickety facing trawlers are very poor condition indian worlds that the traffic are used with very little provision or communication device in there or any navigation device. and i spoke to someone running a contacts today. they said the last contact with 180 record is stuck in the sea

way, at least about a week ago from malaysia. someone contacted that in the boat. we don't know if it was a satellite phone or regular phone that they were able to get signal. and since then they haven't heard of anything, blah, blah, blah. she is the you and hcr spokesman for asia and the pacific. he explains what needs to be done for refugees who are seeking asylum that this is last year. we have seen that more people who would need to to seek safety and this is the point we are trying to make. reset been, people do not see that there are safe harbor ways for them to seek protection where there is no hope for refugees at the end of the tunnel. and when you see that human traffickers and smugglers are praying on these desperate peoples till there is no end in sight, we will sadly see more and more people are trying to take these dangerous and risky journeys. yes,

we have seen movements from me in march and from bangladesh. but one thing we have to acknowledge that bundle of dish has been a generous host for nearly a 1000000 running. got refugees. that's why we are playing and asking for international support to bundle dish and local authorities and communities. but also on the, you know, states that to when they know there's a boat out there with desperate human beings need to be in gesture, they should act. south korea says it's fired warning shots off the several. north korean drones entered its air space local media, se the drones were detected in civilian areas and the young gate province eunice kim, is in. so she tells us more about the situation and south korea hearing from south korea's joint chiefs of staff who said that there were at least 5 unmanned aerial vehicles detected since 10 30 am this morning. apparently one of them flying past

us. border area, town of pud, you before getting as far south as the north part of the capitol sol. there were at least 4 other drones detected over a con why island that is an island near the border area on the west coast. and of course the military here condemning this as clear provocation as it does violate south koreans sovereign aerospace, now, other than trying to shoot down these drones throughout the afternoon. south korea also took corresponding measures. we are learning that south military sent manned and unmanned surveillance aircraft near the border area, and also north of the military demarcation line and a tit for tat of sorts. to take pictures of north korea as military installations. now the drones, the north korean drowns that is dead fly for several hours. some media reports

you're saying is as long as 7 hours since being detected again at around $1030.00 this morning, passenger flights were grounded just after lunch, including at the main airport in china international airport as a safety precaution, as these drones were flying through civilian areas hundreds of people are marching in paris, angry over the killings of 3 people at the kurdish center on friday. the suspect says he murdered his victims because of a pathological hatred of foreigners. 69 year olds with time train conduct so was taken to a psychiatric facility after he was taken into custody. that's crossover out of been dr. who's in the french capital and understand a rally is been going on that house shaping up well the last few minutes. i mean, the ready has ended here. this is a location which month,

3 activists from the kurdish community who were killed about 10 years ago. and this is the place where they have come and they are now still angry over the french government, not declaring this terrorist incident, they say they know that the attacker has said he was a racist and they don't deny it. but they are not happy with how the government has dealt with it so far. according to the details that emerge from prosecutors are visit, berson said that he was inspired by racism. a hate for others. he wanted to commit suicide, but wanted to kill as many people as possible this location in particular significant because well, the kurtz here are saying is that it's been 10 years and there wasn't a proper investigation. but 3 of their comrades were gone down at 10 years ago and they are afraid that it is going to happen again when the government is not even listening to them. at least, declared a terrorist incident. we've been speaking to activists. they're going to continue to come out throughout the next few weeks to commemorate the diversity which

happened was a big thick miss here on january the 9th. and they are adamant that the government needs to do more. at the 3 of the people who were injured have been declared that they are not in critical state. and one of them has come out the hospital and they said here in the, in the fridge capital, the kurdish community, which is a diverse go dish community from iran, from iraq, from syria, from turkey. they say that this struggle to justice or freedom is going to continue until the french government has. right, so they haven't declared this to be a terror attack. how, what direction then is the investigation going? we did speak to few people who i security methods here and they think that because this person has used the word a pass, a logical condition. so, and he was taken to a psychiatric facility, and now he's been given back to believe custody that could possibly be one of the

directions where this investigation could lead to word some. so, so far what we've heard from the french government is that according to initial investigation, he acted unknown. there was no idea logical literature that was found in his house . he spent most part and last year in police custody because he carried out to the attack, wounding 3 people with the sword. last year he went to the like. this would be declared as a known wolf attack, so to speak. somebody who acted alone on an impulse of a medical condition, but this is something which is infuriating, not just the kurdish community, but other migrant communities here as well. because we've been thinking just a migrant here in on the speech. and they tell us that if it was, it wasn't somebody who is from the majority of the french people. if it was a minority person, would come into this attack, his whole family would be under prosecution. his neighbors would have been dug out and they would be if thorough questioning of everybody he who was included,

which is fairly, according to them, not happening now. all right, thanks so much. just how i've been jade. plenty more still ad on the news hour, including a 6 day of no reported cove with 19 deaths in china with health officials. question whether numbers reflect reality. it may look wash, but nigerian farmers are seeking help as they struggle to survive off the devastating floods. ah, about thousands of people that are gonna cut a box largest city of held rallies, protesting against the blockade of the only land linked for media. i've gotten a quarterback has internationally recognized as part of azerbaijan, but armenia lays claim to it as that by johnny activists. have been blocking the latch in corridor for 2 weeks. armenia accuses as other by jan of creating a humanitarian crisis in the region which has in the armenian majority.

for 14 days, we have been under a complete blockade imposed by azerbaijan. as the only road leading nagondo karuba to the outside world is closed. for 14 days, no food medicine, fuel or other vital products have been allowed to enter no corner caraballo. let's bring in father the smiles are they? he's the vice rector at the a the a university joins us live from back. who so we understand this started with a dispute over mining activities. there are russian monitors there. is there no monitoring processed to make sure who's sending what in the name of mining or doing? what in the name of mine? exactly. the cause of the problem, because for many, many years, kara has been on the illegal occupation by army military forces. and they are for

you entered solutions condemning this occupation. and for more than 30 years, cut off, land has been used and exported by armenians to illegally hey, called mino, resources, natural resources, and to sell it in other parts of the world. so no other buy journey government and other by janet ecological activists are claiming and demanding that monitoring should be allowed, and other by johnny in jewels or by johnny ecological activists. true to be permitted to come and monitor their natural resources, exploitation sites. armenians have refused to do it, and therefore, other by johnny, and you'll have to let me jump in and out about the questions. and it's understandable, i guess, you know, the armenians and other isn't going to go about not going to see eye to eye, but there are russian peacekeepers and monitors. are they not playing a role in preventing this from becoming well? russian peacekeepers have been stopping their their, their shootings, but they have been allowing the corridor to be used for illegal shipment of

arms weapons as well as export. they did material resources and i mean natural, natural resources. so there's a very low truck international peacekeepers and therefore other by january, already in ecology, cal activists demanding their monitoring process as well as somehow to have a customs or other checkpoints on the corridor. they did the root of the problem. all right, and i'm showing you the altima has a very different narrative. it says it's actually accusing as it by john of using the mining issue simply as a pretext in order to cup and had gotten cut off from the outside world is black. who actually is it's real goal actually to secure its control over nevada and kind of well my going to come back or cut off into national recognize part of other by john sovereign lender was there by john. but it has been on the occupation. and as

a result of 2020 agreement, they launch inquiry door was agreed to be used for him, an attorney and purposes, meaning that more illegal transfer all goods or weapons or export they did materials should be allowed. but unfortunately, armenians have been using it for that purpose and not for many territory doors. so currently other by john does not have any goals or imposing blockade. it simply says, let's have a monitoring process, and i'll only a minute getting goods or let's say civilian group to be shipped. but the, the armenian side, it says that actually the other is broken. the agreement by cutting off the lunch in colorado. well, the agreement said that it will be used for him and terry and purposes. no more permission is given for the shipment of illegal weapons. and armenia is using it to ship landmines, for example. and more than 200 other by johnny civilians have been already killed

by land mines, as well as their guns. and let's say exploited natural resources. so therefore other by japanese. but let me jump in and if it's about humanitarian issues, let me read to the us state department spokesman net price, he's calling on as a re, a thorough. it is to restore what he calls free movement because he says the closure has severe humanitarian implications. is that we are in crisis. other by john keeps the role open. it's the russian peacekeepers have caused it. and other by janet ecological activists for many days already letting, let's say ambulance and their food and all their supplies to go. so there's no problem with that. simply other by genocide is saying, let's have a proper monitoring over the illegal exploitation of our natural resources. as well as the shipment of land mines and gun, that is the only condition that other by john is putting forward. all right,

thank you so much for coming and sharing your thoughts and analysis. thank you. an intense winter storm across the united states and canada is left tens of thousands without power. at least 30 people have died in several us states, some trapped in their cause. shabby towns, the reports from washington, d. c. winter storm elliot may have long passed over much of us, but arctic lingered on christmas day over 2 thirds of the country. we are in a war. this is a war with mother nature. and she has been hitting us with everything she has since the late hours of thursday and friday, saturday, and now on christmas morning. and this will go down in history as the most devastating storm in buffalo, the long story history, the public temperatures, not any creative. the phenomenon of lake effect snow in the northern great lakes

region, but also the ocean effects in maine on the atlantic coast. the principle is the same cold moving over a warmer water grazing intense storms. high winds meant white conditions in some areas, even where the snow fall had stopped. many remain trapped in the homes, homes where power outages are expected to continue due to the blocked roads. it's not just power lines down, even though there's a lot of that. it actually is substations are frozen and they now need to bring in equipment to repair the substations to get them back on line. they were boards of some feeling. they had no choice but to attempt to drive to so called warming stations. as their homes grew ever more frigid, despite advise that driving in whitehouse conditions could lead to death either from a crash or being stranded in the cold and some good find themselves trapped in the cause. with 2 days, fatalities have been reported in colorado, kansas, oklahoma,

nebraska new york and other states. bodies have been found in cars, non snow banks, others in the home after emergency services struggled to arrive in time, would be at passengers continued that determined push to try to complete christmas travel only to find another day of thousands of flight cancellations and delays. but the thought is forecast over the next week. the longer it stays this cold, the more other systems across the state could be challenged. but the good news is it's getting warmer and it's getting warmer each day. there still isn't an accurate accounting of just how damaging the storm system has been, but it's clear this is yet another and a series of extreme weather events in the u. s. where authorities have been struggling to cope. she ever time see al jazeera across the border in canada, thousands remained without power in the 2 biggest provinces, ontario and quebec. many flights and trains services have been cancelled. some

local governments have declared emergencies in the western province of british columbia. a bus rolled over on an icy road killing for people whether presented jeff harrington's here. he's got more on that cold snap in north america. jeff. hey, there all eyes on the west coast now we've got an atmospheric river set now. so let me show you that is a narrow and concentrated band of rain that's going to ring out it's moisture over in northern california, oregon and washington state right through western canada. not just the rain, but the winds around this will wip up to about a 100 kilometers per hour. that could certainly cause some damage in talking about the cold as far as the us gulf states through florida. so this just outside of austin in the us state of texas is carwash. here is there icicles because of those sub 0 temperatures is a peak at your temperatures. on monday, look at miami, just 19 degrees, some showers, and it has been breezy there as of late or that lake effect. snow is finally starting the weekend for western new york, so we'll catch a bit of

a breather for places like buffalo back to the quote for one second. it's coming out of the u. s. impacting places like mexico city, 16 degrees. and we've got that weather for bringing some bouts of rain for a bahamas western cuba rate in to believe up against that border with hundreds and for that top and of south america. some cool air has been rushing in off the pacific for columbia new temple and this weather report around said that southeast to brazil brown's. how paulo some big downpours and forecasts on monday. china has reported no new cove with 19 death soul. the 6 day in a row with health authorities are concerned about millions of new infections every day. president sheeting thing is called on officials to protect live cases, a full cost to increase. next month, people travel for luna, new year's celebrations, hospital staff say they've already overwhelmed over the overwhelmed with patients aging says it's been hard to track the scale of the outbreak since it stopped

mandatory mass testing. florence louis has moved from hong kong. this is not official data, but one private hospital in beijing is chief medical offices that they're receiving 5 to 6 times more patient than they normally would. and you also said that the average age of patient has shock up from 40 to 70 in just the face of a week. now in another private hospital stuff that they've been told to report to work, even when they test positive and have a fever. and i think that really just underscores how desperate the situation is in china at the moment. now, cases are breaching a 1000000 and they're expected to go up, especially with the lunar new year celebration coming up next month. that's been described as the biggest annual human migration with tens of millions of people. chris crossing the country, one health data firm based in the u. k. estimates that as many as 5000 people are dying a day in china. that's of course in sharp contrast to official data,

the government has recently announced that it wants to increase the rate of explanation amongst the hours and some senior citizens have told reporters that they're afraid of getting back to native because they're afraid of the side effects . and officials now have to persuade the out, and he said that it's safer to get vaccinated than it is to be without the vaccine . now what makes us even more urgent is the fact that china is extremely strict. policies meant that case numbers have been very low, so the few people who have the natural anti bodies as well. and so the spread of cov, it is that it's not only going to be deadly, but it will also be very through the now 3 rush and military personnel have been killed in an attack on a base inside 12 in the south west. the defense ministry says they were killed by falling debris after ukrainian drone was shot.

the same air base was targeted earlier this month. says that was a drone attack carried out by ukraine. a russian president vladimir putin as a ques, the west of trying to reassure a part in an interview. brewton says he's trying to unite the russian people through as offensive in ukraine, arguing ukrainians and russians. one people, he says his government is acting in the interest of the people that moscow is ready to negotiate and the conflict ukraine's president. a lot of me, the landscape says russia is lost everything but will continue to attack ukraine. socially total. only a few days of this year left, we must be aware that our enemy will try to make this time dark and difficult for us. russia has lost everything it could this year, but it is trying to compensate for its losses with the gloating propagandist after the missiles 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. now russia launched more strikes on the eastern city of crime. my thoughts gone sunday. charles stratford has more on that as well as the energy crisis facing ukrainians. after weeks of these, this campaign by most go 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 criminals because been it criminal sc is basically one of the 2 largest urban centers. internet's still on the 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 workers have been killed in an explosion. official say the men died while clearing mines in the house on region becomes a day after 10 people were killed and 58 injured as russian forces targeted the city of carson president that ensco describe the attack as killing for pleasure

runs revolutionary god is arrested 7 people with links to britain says they were detained in connection with anti government protest. oh, those arrested whole jewel nationality. meanwhile, 3 months of unrest is taking a toll on the economy around the currency. the reality is hovering at a near wreck, hold low against the us dollar. protests was fog by the death of 22 year old martha . i mean a lease custody in september still had on al jazeera from boom to boston. 2022 proved to be a tough year for several tag giants. look at what's behind the for. these willow trees have created all sorts of problems in one of ages, largest fresh water lakes. explain why. a 4 scientists the evidence is the refutable. but america's climate change deniers

stubbornly mistrust of the fact. despite soaring temperatures, raging wildfires and shrinking water reserves the world's largest economy still split along ideological lines. so can it ever reach consensus to avoid catastrophe? climate wars on a just 0 joint africa is premier trade. i mean, basement the painting, cutty blah. intra african trade fair gives you access to more than 1000. 600 exhibitors and over 35000 attendees from more than 75 exhibiting countries. participating trade and investment deals with over $43000000000.00 us dollars as business and government come together to explore business opportunities. register now brought to you by the african export import bank african union commission, a f, c, f t, a secretariat, and the premium partners connecting african markets. oh

oh, they're watching al jazeera minded out of our top stories. the ins refugee agency says at least underneath the wrangler refugees who was friend that is for weeks and now presumed dead. in a separate incident, 58 men arrived on indonesia, northern province. on sunday, off the weeks, the hundreds of people have been marching in paris angry over the killings of 3 people at a kurdish tent on friday. suspect says he murder it is vacant because of these have fallen. south korea says the fire warning shots off the several korean drug entered it says faith, local media say the aerial vehicles were detected in civilian areas in the game

province. i mean, c o p and government delegation is in the northern tier i region for the 1st time since conflict broke out 2 years ago. last month, the government and rebels signed the p. steel. the visit is aim that ensuring its implemented of violence into gray is killed thousands and prevented monetary need from reaching millions of this place. people aid has now begun trickling in though there have been several setbacks for democracy in west africa. this year we've delayed elections. coups and attempted crews, there are fears. the instability could help palm groups linked iso and the either nicholas hoc reform and other drills for soldiers in toko, an exercise encountering possible attack by arcadia and eiffel. at least 5 have been reported since beginning of the year. enduring dozens of people and displacing

100. jo, go, has become the latest target for arm groups operating in this to help us prison instructed us to take all necessary measures to ensure that we can protect our people that we can deal with this threat, which is making headlines in our region. researchers from the armed conflict, location and event data project have recorded a surge in attacks and so held countries in 2022. they say togo's neighbor, burkina, faso experienced a 400 percent increase in violet incidence. in january, the democratically elected president caulked mac cowboy was toppled in a coup by colonel amoeba. he promised to bring an end to attacks by armed groups, but face off them. the series of military said in october, a qu within a qu, self, a brain power overthrowing demi back after soldiers lost control of 60 percent of burkina faso to arm groups. not only is this another delayed to democracy in

a region that has experienced a cruise in a few years working on, but gentle leaders have made as little progress as the democratically elected officials. they toppled in curbing the violence fighters from iso or gaining ground threatening coastal nations in the gulf of guinea will continue to watch him and how the activities of terrorists and extremist groups have resolved to view the unfortunate disregard for the national sovereignty and territorial integrity law states, the painful degeneration of the strength allowed democracy with the want to displacement of masses of our populations. and the needless loss of considerable numbers of lives in november of french president emanuel. my co announced to the end of back gun a decade long counter terrorism operation. 3000 french soldiers are expected to leave the sal stepping into the gap in molly are russian fighters from the wagner group.

but so far, they too have failed to stop the attacks that are making countries such as been in ghana and togo, the new frontline, the fight against arm groups. nicholas hawk al jazeera. and let's bring in now of a way of way go. he's a policy analyst that development reimagined joins us from anchor up by skype. good to have you with us. so 1st of all, won't do the prospects for democracy. look like in 2023 after all the coups and attempted cruise. we had 2022 in west africa. well, i think one of the major challenge with the democracy in the continent is, there is, there is a growing belief that the more because i'm able to trans does it started a good governance. right? that's for many citizens is not enough because when you go to yeah,

you're good for elections, you know what you government happen sections and spend so much money on campaign and all of that. but the problems remain the same. that it is, does this disgruntlement with democracy itself, or the lack of good governance that is driving these pushes on the cooper within the military. they're capitalizing on that on that. the satisfaction doesn't mean the products structure issue in regards to security on thursdays and from unable just went into it in a rabbi and problems. but if i wrote going forward, i think democracy would only try to get any form of know this again, if we start seeing governance as a consequence of the, of adopting the, the presence of democracy and how can good governance be improve going forward?

is this down to civil society and the need to strengthen civil society or the role for, for other countries to, for example, thought preconditioning some of the a they give with some measures of good governance and fighting corruption. yeah. already, if you, if you even look, if you look at the detailed i was just released by after about, i mean, i very reputable and putting organization the actually measuring the decline of the decline in belief. in fact, with democracy also, tolerance for our party to was really feel. so i just thought that you use it context of what is really happening. like i said earlier, if we don't have a government that able to develop the government does not defense or a sling, but to get out good live and many of the institutional solutions or the problems need institutional solutions, minute solutions. but the solutions only come from we didn't you,

we feel very awful that you know, it was our partner countries would insist on how money should be spent should be spent at the it gives the new prescription of the government. i think that's wanted something that really needs to change. and then secondly, we want to really talk about, go, go, but not without looking at the economics and development, because when you don't invest enough in development an economy, then you do have low product, the on demographics with very young baby loss population being an active then each of crime commonality actors and you cannot even begin to address those problems. all right, so we've got challenges going forward when it comes to governance and democracy. what about security in 20? 23. how's the picture looking? the one of the, the things that we're going to do is the regional body is like

a co and you engaging more with the, with the, with the cool did you drink us with a molly in booking our fossil guinea because they've already cognition that whether or not the democratically elected governments, the have some support within the country. you on the collect, insisting on sanctioning actually told the house of the people in those countries against the institutions. so what, what already the turn of that had begun? the thought that i would have been repaired to some of his country in this country . so what i see going forward is morning given between the african union arena about us and getting more with this with the government. i'm sure that the transition period, you know, that we agreed upon was take to read, and then more importantly, the, the previous is that the cited me then did you cool with corruption? oh, the security that the mix us commitment. we didn't transition on peer to solve those

problems. if not, what keeps including could even cause in place in other places where you know, tensions are already raised. all right, it's been a pleasure talking to thank you so much of the way way go thanks a lot of how this has been a kale to give a british politics. united kingdom has had 3 prime ministers, full finance ministers, and 3 interior ministers in the bottom of the jokes internationally. but it's under simmons explains brits haven't had too much to laugh about. this report contains flashing images in britain they call christmas the 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 m 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 logistic to see you. you 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 that up. and she blamed her friend and finance minister quasi courting. 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, said 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. 2022 was also the year. the technology industry in the u. s. came crashing down to us after flying high on pandemic era prophets. rob reynolds explains why went also wrong so 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 ha,

to was a very tough here in tech. in part because we were paying for past since over exuberance, over hiring, over expectations. and now we're 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 don't very short amount of time. as the virus waned, consumer habits changed, although the online buying hang over 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 gonna 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 must 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 extremis posts have also risen dramatically. these changes have alarm industry analysts and human rights advocates to me off. tremendous concern

you know, setting up presidents, an example where a popular platform with millions of use us are having such completely 0 moderation, isis elated accounts 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 combined to start the next cycle of boom and bust. rob reynolds

al jazeera los angeles. why, let's bring in now. santa ral, he's the head of research, and the partner at manhattan venture partners joins us from new york. good to have you with us. so let's break it down here. what exactly happened was this really a case of the techs the tech industry expanding far too quickly in the coven, 2020 year. that a correction was inevitable when life returns to something approaching normal? absolutely, i think you said it correctly. there was a pull forward of demand that the supply chain contrib constraints. so the next us ordering excess, scorning rather inventory. so everything was accessed because of disruption of the supply demand and balance and all that. so i think that's what happened. so 2022 had become a euro reckoning, so to speak, the year, the year off, free money,

no rates, low inflation and stimulative. busy federal fiscal, fiscal policy wanted the policies on coming to an end at the all that is coming really bad coming to coming to bear, and that's why you're seeing the meltdown. so it happens. it's just a cyclical thing that happened to the economy. but the over all of this was much needed. we went too much on the other side. we need to come back to the center and that's what you're seeing at this point. all right, so is it a case of though we've had a reckoning? thank you. 2022. good times coming 2023. or how long does the correction continue for you? actually 2023. and as i see it is going to be a year of transition. all the money invested in automation and productivity. all that is going to bear fruit into 1023. so it's going to be a little ramp up as, as one of the re rating and correction base place, lot of digestion big plays and then we come out on the other side much more healthy,

much more well price price correctly. and so you'll see what the legal bar you're bringing, the things will slow down and pretty for will be a year of going from transition to boom. are the key variables to look out for interest rates, the availability of easy money, the recession and so on. at absolutely, i think our view is that inflation is going to moderate. it's gonna start coming down. it's trinity incorrectly. there's probably several around 3 to 4 percent. and we can live with that. interest rates are probably several around there as well. so, so we can look at that and you'll see what a round it. and then if at the end of the day, you cannot disregard the secular tailwind, which is cyber security, e commerce, cloud computing, these are strange that route continue into the future streaming services their secular buildings that will play play out in 2004. so that's a lot of things to look forward to. but right now it's time to hung down, write,

write this out, and disregard the regulations or rather, take, take your defensive positions as, as the market. it just evaluations. all right, since we've got the crystal ball now, we might as well take a deeper look. so what faxes of this vast industry are the ones that are going to lead the recovery or the advance to the next stage. yeah, so i think your commentator lead into this was pretty good. technology is what will lead us out of this thing out of this whole recession. and so you like, i guess acknowledge, she didn't acknowledge you continue to see cybersecurity continue to see cloud computing, take different shapes, differently. durations of that virtual reality is going to be more and more shape the metal. ours were all its flaws, will come into shape in 11 way or the other. so you will see 2 or 3 things cloud computing, e commerce will take another shape as well. the payments landscape is going to see

some changes as well, or iterations or improvements. so you'll see a lot of just in there, based on the fundamental secular that's moving towards cyber security out computing and e commerce iterations 2 point oh rather. so all those things will lead us out of this thing and virtual reality, of course, as long as they don't figure out how to, to replace t v presenter. but that's good, we'll leave it. how i family. wow. yeah, thank you. thank me. my jury, as farmer suffered serious losses during floods this year, the government is offering support, but many on getting the help they need to trace revolts from with, you know, the country the floods, the submerged most of nigeria, coastal communities between august and october destroyed, tens of thousands of factors of farmland, but agriculture authority say the torrential, rain sub left behind, rich,

alleviate deposit and moisture which has improved the quality of this oil. and that's what you suppose will be what boost his mace harvest. unless i'm telling you to attack us on which we got free seed and fertilize it, this crop fails. we could be in serious trouble. it will determine whether we survive were star before the planting season. the government is providing small scale farmers like tasks with federalized and improved maturing seat. it will for a while, it was 80 for the policy is that the, the moisture and, and blue cross and also live with others. but there isn't enough to go out of fishes admit only a fraction of the hundreds of thousands of farmers affected by the floods. earlier this year we'll benefit from a government initiative to help them take advantage of the residual and most ger left behind by the floods. which means many of them now in debt, face an uncertain future. our last income and access to food. the government

has, we have to determine the extent of damage economy said the unknown losses, floods coast tonight. judas agriculture industry, unsustainable all. the more reason they say why farmers should move from rain fade agriculture to irrigation it. reese, algeria with the decades of mismanagement, is choking, will are fresh water lake, which used to be one of the largest in asia. well, the problems have taken the serious toll, but now authorities in indian administered kashmir, say the taking action to revive it. probably natal explains winner lake in the kashmir valley is preparing for winter boats like these are making the last rounds as villagers extract any remaining water. just nuts. the lake is famous for them and output has increased over the past 2 years. but you are still 0, did used to be a field, there were trees here, but after the dredging,

what of chestnut started growing back and livelihoods resumed before that the silt and marshlands made it hard for us to sustain our lives as dwellers. oh, god, one nestled in the himalayas. the willow lake is a critical source of water in the region, and pounds of people depend on it. but in a matter of decades, it shrunk by nearly half an hour because of these widow cheese housings are planted for firewood trading mounds of silt that are choking waterways, affecting vegetation and water quality restoration projects are underway, the government, and to cut down 2000000 cheese by march. so bandar is one of the contractors that you like to bud guillermo, growing. i planted hundreds of thousands of trees for 35 years, but it was a mistake. it destroyed the lake well that the government wants to restore it and cut down trees. this will bring back the lakes glory. i feel very lucky. i got the

contract. authorities are planting other trees, still, belly for of the 90 square kilometers of loss. office area have been restored in 5 years. basically the located or jo. seasonally or from. you can say at the door, 050 square kilometers. so it is not necessary that we are a we had to restore hall on the india as a water body because we're land has its own feature that has, it has to how it is mud flaps that has to have it solid. it has a birth against it, the next f as a natural barrier against flooding. but environmentally safe pollution levels need to be controlled for it to be effective. the more fix that push me to believe that it is brought to flooding and most of these flood waters used to fly into thinking around auto engage in with us. but if you look at land system changes that have happened over the course of the last 50 years. so far the kids saw a know there have been some sense land system changes. we just not l o. basically water's flood waters to sink into our lake. authorities are planning to restore

another 23 square kilometers, villagers noted take yes for the lake to return to its former glory. but a happy with the 1st signs of revival party methyl. i'll just eat a brazil's incoming justice minister, threatening to take action against supporters of outgoing president jovial sanara protests as have been gathering at all the basis in both in our last the election to louise and i feel like the silver they want the military to overturn the results says police discovered a bomb, a protest site on saturday. farmers act because even us presidents of all was the famous panama hat, despite what many believe they are not. we're never from panama, our latin america that lucy newman explains from on to christie in ecuador. this is the story of one of the world's most famous and yet mis named hats. for

more than a 120 years mules had been bringing to keep home fiber from the hills surrounding monta. christy, near the pacific coast of ecuador steady patch. i is a 3rd generation hat artist, cynthia significant. and. and it's a 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. hi la. but that's just the beginning of an exquisite craft, though they've been there in the hybrid i. this was, we were, the best strands are specially selected in, but 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 in weaving something that is so fine we can go on it. but chinese great grandfather was one of the 1st to commercialize the monte christie hats and exploit them to panama at the beginning of the 1900s they got in. 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 nice. no ah it. oh god, no. this is way too difficult. i've been trying and trying, i just cannot 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. in press, you kiss 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 than these days. i am so if we feel that eliza,

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 grandson's already becoming the 4th generation of patricia to produce the original to key upon hat. a proud symbol, not of panama, they say, but of their country ecuador. to see a newman al jazeera want to kristy ecuador. well, that's safe from me for this news. i but i'm back in the mamma with another bulletin says they with it's one of the most spectacular mass migrations in the animal kingdom. monarch butterflies. millions of arriving at the winter habitat in central mexico. this year, the international union for the conservation of nature officially designated the

migrating monarch butterfly as endangered experts say the use of pesticides along with the loss of habitat, are the biggest threats to the species. they may be difficult to see from a distance, but these trees behind us are absolutely covered in monarch butterflies. now tourists are welcome at this protected butterfly sanctuary here in central mexico. but visitors are asked to keep their voices down so as to not disturb the butterflies. for many the up close encounter with millions of these vibrant butterflies is a once in a lifetime experience experts and mexico see that despite the mon are being designated as a danger. there's evidence that conservation efforts are working, but ultimately the future of this iconic insect depends on the continued protection of their natural habitat program. more a serious mistake. artificial intelligence is slowly invading every aspect of our lives. but very few of us really understand its capabilities. for

better or worse, al jazeera explores the impact of a i and accessing vast amounts of our personal data. data land on al jazeera, across the world, young activists and organizers, feronda move, motivated, and politically engaged. the felon just, they couldn't be more daunting here. and we were the ones who led lights on what was going on in a way that most me, the media didn't. there's looking start, think about the lebanon is always in a binary pulse formation. we have the agency to create the viable alternative generation on al jazeera ah.
