is rapidly developing, but it's one also that is afflicted by conflict, political upheavals, some of those we talked to elsewhere as saying that they fled after hearing that other villages had been attacked. what we do in al jazeera is tried to balance these stories, the good, the bad, the ugly, tell it as it was. and he's the people who allow us into their lives, dignity, and humanity, asked you to tell their stories. ah israel's far right national security minister is accused of deliberate provocation after visiting the al acts of mos compounded occupied east jerusalem. ah. on the barker this is al jazeera alive from dough. also coming up. russia suffers

wall of the worst attacks on its forces since the war in ukraine began. 60 troops are killed also. long lines of mourners in brazil pay their final respects to football. great palais these alive pinches will be laid to rest later on tuesday. and charging ahead with battery power, norway is leading the way in the sale of electric cars. ah, israel's recently appointed security minister has entered the compound housing the al acts of mosque and occupied east. jerusalem moved palestinians cool, unprecedented provocation. it's a mob been gabby. it was surrounded by security forces as he toward the site, his rails, former prime minister, ayala pete, had warned such a visit, which spark violence was r a harass is at the mount of olives in occupied east jerusalem. and sorry,

he is one of the most controversial figures of the new right wing government there in israel previously convicted of inciting racism. this visit was always going to be incredibly provocative, wasn't it? absolutely, this is very controversial. i mean, this decision was in the making in the last couple of days been because they had made it very clear that he was timing on arriving the ox compound. a lot of most compound thought the surprise here was that it happened today in the early hours yesterday he'd indicated that it would be happening in the next few weeks. also having met up with the prime minister benjamin netanyahu, this would have had to got police clearance because of security because of how sensitive this is. and then he turned out this morning, it was about 13 minutes. there was a very, very quick entry and a quick exit. now the, that we've already been hearing reaction from the palestinian foreign ministry.

that said this is unprecedented provoke provocation. we've also heard from hamas in gaza, who's basically puts out a call saying that palestinian, you should mobilize, we've also heard from the opposition lead. yeah. who's the for my israeli prime minister, who said that, who had warned not to go ahead with this decision. and it would cause a lot of provocation in his statement. bank of it in. a the kid the occupied. ok, so most said that he will deal with any threats with an eye in space quite so strong statement that from hamas and a response from bank of their bank is an incredibly controversial figure. he is a leader of a far right party, but now parts of the coalition government brought benjamin netanyahu back to politics. some of these parties were french parties that now the main stream,

and it's clearly been shown from the saw that he was going to be pushing a lot of the agenda he before the swearing and of the government. one of the stipulations, one was a been given low, he had no pun, lies in his name, giving him sweeping powers over the police. this is someone who hasn't visited ok. so most compounds for the 1st time. he's done it in the past, but this is a very high ministerial level job. he's the national security minister for israel on this hasn't happened to any time recently, certainly not in the last few years. so he's very known for causing a lot of provocation. netanyahu didn't meet with him. how much of him would have known this, he would have had to have approved it. but the a consensus yesterday was on bank of a himself said this would be happening in the next few weeks. so it really did come as a surprise that happened today and whether we'll, we haven't received any international reaction just yet. certainly not since this visit the king of jordan, who's the custodian of the holy. so i had said

a few days ago that anything like this could do would be crossing a red line, or a hugely controversial figure form one of the most divisive figures in israeli politics. tell you with a sorry for a 2nd because there's been more violence in the occupied west bank house and the palestinian health ministry says a 15 year old boy was shot dead by israeli forces and happened during a raid on a refugee camp near bethlehem sabra. what more can you tell us about this? that's right, there's been an escalation intention where barely through the 1st week of 2023 on monday. a monday that was malicious in a club village close to jeanine for homes they going to palestinians. the cautious continued in several locations, not just in janine, but a novelist in hebron and bethlehem, and many of the areas throughout monday into the night and into this morning. in

bethlehem, the israeli forces turned out to make an arrest. a refugee camp teenager was shot in the trust and killed during the confrontations between the israeli forces and palestinians. now, this is an escalation that didn't just thought in the last few days in 2023. it was one of the most violent years for palestinians in the occupied was spent in more than a decades all increased the rest of the last few days. they've also been releasing palestinians from prison and then re arresting them as well. so this all of this fast, the bank of the visit today could really flame things. and we only 80 days away from the holy month of ramadan, which will be taking place. and over the last year we saw a lot of violence here just behind me and in ox, most compound or i'm sorry, high us in occupied eastern slim thanks for the update. ah,

ukraine's president says, russia is sent to launch an extensive campaign of iranian made drone attacks, followed me as the lensky says, it's trying to exhaust ukraine. my mind when we have information that russia is planning a protracted attack using shaheed drones. it is probably banking on exhaustion, exhausting our people now anti aircraft offenses in our energy, but we act and do everything so that the terrorists fail in their aim as all their others have failed. meanwhile, russia has made a rabbit mission. the dozens of its soldiers have been killed in one of the worst attacks of the ukraine war. the troops were in temporary barracks, beside an ammunition dump unlucky of company the occupied province of dun yeske. moscow says the barracks was struck by 4. missiles fired from us, might hi mas launches. it says it shot down another to ukraine, has a much higher casualty count saying,

400 russian soldiers were killed on new year's day. but russia says that figure is exaggerated. it puts the number of fatalities at 63, child stratford has more from cave. the 1st real official statement from the ukrainians has come out. according to the general staff of ukraine on forces. they saying that they attract units of russians in mackey. and they said that up to 10 units, what they described was, various military equipment was destroyed in that attack. no mention of any kind of dest toll lay in there would say that the human loss is still being calculated, but seems to be the 1st kind of recognition official statement. the coincides by these allegations made by the russians. i think what's surprising and is rare is that this is an admission by russian forces of the seemingly quite

a large attack. this is not normal procedure. interestingly, earlier there was a statement put out on a telegram channel saying that it was part of the strategic communications direct church for the ukrainian forces. and they saying that up to 400 russian soldiers were killed in this attack and 300 injured. so it's very difficult impossible, in fact for us to verify these kind of numbers, but just to put it in context. obviously mackie of close on that because very close to a front line. and there is fighting going on in towns like close by, right, the way along that not area of the front line. so it would not be inconceivable that such a large strike has happened. the russians saying that an american weapon system hmos was used in it a national forget though,

that within the 24 hour period of this strike happening, russia was launching biology is of cruise missiles and kamikaze drones at the capital city at target. here in the capital city, very few casualties, but a lot of damage done. but it's going to be very interesting to see just how the russians respond to this attack. because as i say, it's very rare that they admit that sir, so many casualties that they've suffered so many casualties in an attack like this . thousands of people in brazil continue to pay their final respects to football. legend pele, these are live pictures of the scene. his body is laying in the stadium as long time club santos, where it is currently 10 past 5 in the morning. he died on thursday at the age of 80 t o. b lay to rest near the stadium where his career started. tom homan reports from santos palais,

the difficult look easy and football fun for speech, as on the wall in my bedroom, watch, and he was there a presentation, the inspiration of the best, and the most beautiful you having football. so for me, it was always my idol from, from very, very early age. outside of the stadium, the queue to fall past the coffin, snake back on it. so again and again. celebrity, not sad. after all, play was $82.00 and it struggled with cancer for a long time. at the lunch matches local both around the ground. everyone seems to have a story about how they've seen him met him, or do they have, he's told us, she was his nutritionist. and his point, you know, once a month i take his measurements, what you would see if he was, well, a real honor, right? i could have never imagined it like so many who, even though his last game was 45 years ago,

the videos of many of the exploits grainy, the stories and the memories have been passed on young as well as old turning out say goodbye. sunsetting now in the middle stadium, the last sunset that its most famous sun is going to see in this place, people are still filing past his coffin to pay the last respect. current santo's plays arrived as twilight fence silent question echoing into the dusty sailor. is there enough a pele out there? will there a debate? john holeman al jazeera santos catholic, so paying their respects to former pope benedict the 16th at the vatican, italian prime minister, georgia maloney was among the group. the former pumps if will lie in state inside saint peters basilica for 3 days, his funeral will be held on thursday by the date of 16 stayed on saturday. at the age of 95. still had i went on al jazeera

people are being paid to have babies in south korea with the government now offering incentives to young parents. and oil theft in nigeria is crippling. the country's economy will tell you how the government wants to tackle the ongoing crisis. ah, the who's it's not the new scares, want to hear that snow pack is dwindling in the swiss alps. have one that has to do with record warmth right across the country. so okay, seems have come down on tuesday for example, some showers in zurich with a high 9 degrees, but all of these temperatures by day are above average and even by night we're not dipping below 0 here. things are formed up across the islands of ireland in britain, but it comes out to cause some pulses of rain across the islands here. and that

shield of snow from helsinki to moscow dropped about 10 centimeters of snow weather alerts in play. because of that in time, the showers in rain petering out across spain. it's going to leave behind a legacy of cloud cover. but i think throughout the day on tuesday, some more peaks of sun for sure. fog has been an issue. in istanbul, we could see a repeat performance of that on wednesday breezy read across the coast of egypt and elsewhere in africa. high temperatures in lego, set $35.00 degrees as above average for this year. as we go to the south right now, this batch of rain in southern and goal and northern namibia could certainly caused some problems. rain for that eastern side of south africa and for the western cape province. enjoy it while you can. on tuesday, suns out in cape town with the hive 24, but showers will scooting here on wednesday. that's it. that's all see next hour. ah, with join the debate. when we talk about climate change in africa,

brazil's leadership role and the global stage a key priority. he held a host of bilateral meetings with leaders and diplomats from china to europe in africa, to latin america. in lou long, i believe president lula is a regional leader who will give a strong boost to latin america. brazil's absence of the past few years has been felt. louis present signifies the return of brazil to the international stage. former president, jade bull sonata, a hard, lank, conservative, had little interest in fostering international ties, especially in his own region. but lula says that brazil the world's 5th largest country and latin america's power house must again become a major player. as it was when he was last president, chinese vice president, once he shang, was among the 1st to pay him a visit. although china is brazil's main trading partner let, the silva is concentrating 1st on reviving his long standing goal of strengthening

latin american unity. without leaving any country out. he has begun by restoring ties with venezuela, severed by his predecessor, a you in a foot a lot with president lula. we discussed ways of incorporating venezuela into the latin american fold, as well as the importance of legitimate elections and venezuela in 2024. so that they will be really legitimate, with guarantees for all actors, all of them personally be lula was an influential figure, the last time that many latin american countries turn to the left. he believes in strength in numbers. although latin america is again witnessing the swing to the left regional unit, he has always eluded it. unlike the european union, that unity has always depended on common ideologies rather than common interests. that's a mistake that brazil's new president apparently intends to fix. to see a newman al jazeera brazilian purchase in bolivia and have continued for

inflation and make things worse. make families poorer in the long run. the rail delivery group, one of the bodies that the unions have been to go see a thing with the guys that they need to reform that working practices. and until unions accept that, then the dispute will continue the union. so they're saying that they need to defend working conditions that the government needs to stop interfering in the negotiating process. one of the union boss is saying that the level of ministerial interference and all of this is unprecedented, that they've been able to negotiate significant pay awards, where the government has less influence and control as well. and one of the boss is saying that they're in this for the long haul, so this could be the sign of another very disrupted few months. it's what people have been used to in recent months. and this 1st week of 2023 could be assign further, such disruptions come unusual to see london bridge stations. so empty at that time in the morning, harry for search live in london. mesa south korea has one of the lowest fertility

keeps growing. revenues are falling to you to unprecedented levels of theft from its main export oil. in july, nigeria lost its position as africa's biggest oil producer without put dropping for the 1st time blow 1000000 barrels a day. how many drifts reports from the niger delta court in the act? a falling vessel found stealing crude oil deep inside the creaks of the niger delta? within 2 days, officious decided its fate. vessels like this was hundreds of thousands of dollars can end up in flames. officious hope this will send a strong message to all thieves to georgia should wish on is not good. i can, i am depressed to tell you is not good at all because they said lot of theft, but it is also not beyond us such and such vessels when fire is racked,

most are confiscated and later released. methods of stealing now years could all are becoming increasingly sophisticated and security operatives are struggling to keep up in the past 3 months, officious of met, significant discoveries major could export pipelines have been illegally tapped. quite these 2 pipelines were found running a distance of 4 kilometers into the atlantic. ocean thieves have used them to steal oil and load it onto supertankers. a parliamentary investigation found nigeria lost more than $2000000000.00 in the 1st half of 2022 half a 1000000 bottles was stolen daily during the time. in small alights, kill operations both on and offshore. officious. he has said that money could have addressed nigeria is growing by the deficit and widespread poverty. nigeria has lost so much all that the country has lost its position as africa's biggest

producer and only say the looting of nigeria. soil is being carried out by rogue secured to operatives, officious and local communities working together that because of failure of leadership, ah, corruption issues with dean dessie stem ah, on the issue of fall punishment. that is not, as i did under this rule, will participate in ohio taft. the loss of all revenue has forced the government to take on more borrowing to finance its needs. and that is dangerous to the entire country, the investment climate to nigeria, and a viability of our government. it is its continued consistently when to weaken the government ability to perform. nigeria has constructed local security agencies to secure pipelines. i revamped a task force to tackle all left, but many analysts say it can only be stopped by tackling corruption and effectively managing the production and supply of oil. how much it, reese?

al jazeera, the niger delta noise has set a record for sales of electric cars. new figures suggest nearly 80 percent of new cars registered last year. we're battery powered, that's far ahead of the european union. the figure was less than 9 percent electric car sellers have benefited from tax breaks and lower fees for road tolls and public parking ways. government wants all new car to be electric within 2 years, called brown is an executive analyst, and i see cars dot com and a forbes autos contributor. he says there are several factors that could limit the sales of electric cars. we see the percentage of new vehicle sales in norway going toward e v. 's. but we don't necessarily see the sales growth. and if anything, there's been some contraction for the last few years. and so i'm wondering how many people in norway, they're either new car buyers and the tax breaks help them or they're not necessarily new car buyers. and they're just hanging on to their internal combustion vehicle because they don't want to,

they want to face the potential long term issues that we're talking about with ranging variety. and so what we're going to see in the next few years could be interesting. you could see new car sales dropping, but there being a lot of ease, but still being a huge percentage of norway. people that just hang onto their older car. everyone likes to think that they can charge the car at home and, and a lot of people obviously have electricity at their house. they get a level 2 charger, not less than charge overnight. but if you want to travel more than the cars range, or you want to run multiple errands during the day, and you have to use the public system, there's really still no good country that's got that handled the closest might be the supercharger network. that tesla has, for instance, in the us, but again, you can find big pockets of the u. s. that have no coverage, and most cars just, it makes people very nervous. they want to drive a long distance and if they can't depend on their home charger, it's very nervous for them. ok.
