or lives with terrible consequences. a new documentary asks why that. we've learned any lessons from the h. i. v. epidemic in the fight against coven 19. how we ignore the global. so to put profits before people. and it won't cost me her time of pendant on august. the latest news, as if breaks this particular sub so should let's bring in 3 separate effects. why fix russian we saw with detailed coverage. they had hope that the u. s. would relax water. a panoramic restrictions this week, which with likely had fettered their odds of getting in from around the world over 3000000 people to talk to the 3 in point of sight if they feel very worried for you, then mcbee and the national people ah,
12:01 am
this is al jazeera ah, hello, i'm lauren taylor. this is the outers here news. i live from london coming up republican kevin mccarthy on course to lose a 6th vote for the next us house speaker. after being repeatedly rejected by hard liners from his own party. despite a call for unity from donald trump, a south korea says 26 percent of arrivals from china have tested positive for kobe . b, e u recommends pre flight testing for passengers from china. benjamin netanyahu new hard, right? government unveils overhaul of israel's justice system. that would weaken the supreme court and temperatures for january reach an all time high in 8 countries across europe. and in what is currently goal is between tot loman crystal palace in
12:02 am
the family. plus selina massey, a guess at god of honor from his paris, sasha massey made softly his wildcat. when begin in the united states, where republican kevin mccarthy is on course to lose a 6th round of voting to elect a speaker of the house of representatives is the 1st time in a 100 years that a nominee for house speaker has failed to be appointed on the 1st boat voting started on tuesday and will continue until a candidate gets 218 boats. democrat, her kim, jeffries, one the 1st 5 boats. congressional business cannot start until the speaker is elected. republicans have a narrow majority in the house, but mccarthy is facing opposition from hard line members within his own party. around 20 republicans are blocking mccarthy's bid for speaker most belong to
12:03 am
a group known as the house freedom caucus, which is on the hard right of the republican party. many supporters of former president donald trump, and believe mccarthy is not invested enough in partisan rivalries that have dominated the house trumpet, urged fellow republicans to elect kevin mccarthy to lead the chamber. members of the house. freedom corker. say they want to level the playing field for the american people are demanding changes to rules that govern daily operations in the house, including giving junior members more influence on legislation or on 100 or does live at from capitol hill. so it's now into the 6th round herancha, this go on for it could go on indefinitely. the longest it's ever gone on was back in 1856 when over 2 months, 133 balance were taken. nobody is expecting that to happen. this time around, but in 1923. it took 2 days and 9 ballots. fitted aside. this is looking
12:04 am
a little more like that. and the problem is that that block of what was 19 and is now $21.00 conservatives have held together. in fact, have grown by 2, as kevin mccarthy is trying to get the 218 votes needed to get through that number . that threshold changes depending on who vote present. and there is one member voting president, meaning that threshold is now gone to, to 17, it's lower. but the bad news is that vote came from mccarthy's own supporters. so he's having no luck getting this through. and he can't even get the 218 votes. he needs to adjourn in order to do that. he's going to get some, he's going to need to get some democrats to vote along with him or some members of that block. and they're gonna have to have a good reason to do so because they are asking for mccarthy's happy. do not want him to be speaker of the house. he's been offering them a number of inducements, in including making it easier to get rid of his speaker. making the votes on the
12:05 am
floor more democratic, allowing members to make their own to make choices on amendments and that sort of thing. none of it seems to be swaying them and it seems increasingly clear that all they want is to get rid of mccarthy. and they seem closer to doing that today than they were yesterday. so if it isn't mccarthy than, than who well, there are a number of people that have been mentioned is possibilities. a problem is they have all been voting for mccarthy. so the gentleman they have picked is byron donald's of florida. an unlikely candidate. he's only been in congress since 2021. he's an african american candidate. so at the moment, because hakeem jeffrey's a democrat is also african american, that has is the 1st time that we've had 2 african american candidates for house speaker, but i don't think anybody expects mister donald's to be elected speaker. he seems to be a protest vote on behalf of this group of conservative republicans,
12:06 am
whose more likely was steve sca lease is the deputy for mccarthy. but he's been supporting mccarthy. we've had a couple of votes for jim jordan. he also is supporting mccarthy. so they seem to be, the opposition seems to be having trouble landing on somebody, but the vote right now for them seems to be anybody. but mccarthy. so it's really up to the mainstream republicans to come up with an acceptable candidate. and it is likely to come from that list of those who are currently in the leadership, steve's car lease, jim jordan, elise still phonic. all of them have been mentioned as possibilities. but so far there hasn't been a break in that impasse. and in fact, things are going less mccarthy's way than ever. john 100. thank you very much. indeed. james davis is a republican strategist and former communications director for the republican national convention. join us live from arlington,
12:07 am
virginia. so what mccarthy's opponents really want is it just to block mccarthy? do they have genuine demands? and if and if so they like to to prevail. i don't think there's an in game at all here and i think, you know, what we see is a mix. some books or pose mccarthy personal bounced. some are looking more specific to policy disagreements and some are just trying to make a name for themselves. we've seen that more and more over the years where individual members have stuck out from their party to make a name for themselves. the difference here is that nancy pelosi held that block together really well under her leadership. and you know, it's going to be a really challenging thing for whoever becomes speaker wherever this now it ends and whoever takes that mantle. honestly, i'm not really sure why anyone would want the job and so, so whoever does end up with this job, i mean, given the divisions we've seen on show here how i don't know what it means, how much they can actually achieve in congress. and in the house in particular.
12:08 am
well, the reality is congress wasn't going to achieve a lot anyway with the divine to congress house in the senate, and obviously the white house in democratic control. we expected very little out of this congress. what you see right now actually could mean that we might get even less. and if you project this both forward and let's hope sensibility comes to the table here and that this boat. and once we're past this boat, we'll get to governing. because there are a number of issues that our country grappling with at the end of this year, we're going to be looking at things like raising the debt ceiling. those are always very tight votes. and based on what you see right now, i wouldn't be so certain that we would even keep the government open, which is just the basic function. and present biden has said that the chaos is put embarrassing, and the rest of the world is looking. how damaging is this for the u. s. as image you know, i don't, i don't know. i mean, we've seen
12:09 am
a lot of the tricks in the political discourse. this is something obviously that republicans can get past if they can galvanized and support whoever gets ultimate speakership. then i think you can get back to a rolling governing majority in the house. and there are areas where you could make good progress. i mean, i mentioned, you know, simple things like the ceiling that you have to get through the budget process, but also immigration. we've got a huge crisis at our border, which both republicans and democrats look at, but you've got the complexity after we get past this of the presidential election, which will be turning the heat up on probably in february or march of this year, which will also interfere so it's really hard to see much getting donors, congress and you may, you mentioned, so immigration, instead of other policies internationally what, what would it mean? i mean, if there any particular policy implications for, for the us,
12:10 am
the relationship with the rest of the well, i think so. i mean, ultimately, you know, energy is a global issue and energy prices and soard. and i think there are opportunities for the congress to work together to address the energy crisis and to open up opportunities. i mean, it, russia has really built their work just based off of the fact that they've dominated so much oil over the years. and, and that's actually impacted ukraine quite a bit. so, i mean, there's all of this stuff works together. if the u. s. this is things at the end of the year, such as raising the debt ceiling, which is a critical function. you could see things like a downgrade in our credit rating, and that has huge ripple impacts across the world economy. when that happens, james, save it. thank you very much indeed for your perspective. thank you tom. just thank you. i
12:11 am
the world health organization says china isn't giving an accurate picture of the extent of its code 19 outbreak. on tuesday, china's top scientists presented data to you in agency officials, the w h o emergency program directors, as beijing is under representing hospitalizations and deaths from the disease. there are certainly issues in terms of the criteria for recording and reporting, dance attributable to call with dining. we believe that definition is too narrow, which requires the spiritual failure association to register as a covert related that as of right now definition, we know there are difficulties and all countries very often in recording hospital relief is admissions use of i see you for some of these, but again, we believe that the current numbers being, being published from china under represent the true impact of the disease in terms of hospital admissions. in terms of i see you admissions,
12:12 am
and particularly in terms of that, your opinion is now recommending pre flight. cobit testing passengers flying from china to the blog. the recommendation comes from the use integrated political crisis response. group. officials also recommend that all travelers, where mosques, they've encouraged countries to introduce random testing of passengers and waste water in airports. the south korean government is increasing its code 19 checks and protocols at its efforts. after chinese national he tested positive on arrival, went missing while waiting to enter a quarantine vicinity. health officials and military officers say that out keeping a close eye on international travelers. south korea as 26 percent of short term visitors from china on tuesday, tested positive on arrival units came as more from intern international airport flights connecting cities in china to here in china. international airport in south korea are at a fraction of what they used to be in pre pandemic times. and yet short term
12:13 am
visitors who are able to walk through those doors would do so straight into a p c r testing booth. and from there, those who test positive would be moved to a hotel nearby for a week long florentine on their own expense. now, health officials say they found $73.00 positive cases on tuesday, accounting for about 25 percent of china arrivals on that day. not including locals who would test within 24 hours at a local clinic near them. now these positive cases are being analyzed for variant information. and despite these tightened protocols, we are already hearing on day 2 since roll out of one man who got away on the way to florentine forcing officials to have to put out an alert hostage and will you need all the chinese national immune forties tested positive for coveted into an airport and lifted up permission while entering auto for your quarantine bus. it is
12:14 am
regrettable that such a disgraceful event occurred. officials warned that such violations would lead to deportation and future entry bands possible fines as well as jail time, as they would run in a violation of the country is held. codes. officials also saying it is becoming more and more difficult to understand what is happening with then mainland china, as transparency on information, is becoming more and more difficult. japan is also introducing additional coven 19 border control measures for anyone arriving from china, from in. so for me, okey sheeter announced that starting on sunday, travelers will have to present a negative code 19 tests before boarding their plane from china to japan. they're also be required to take a test when they arrive. chinese government has condemned the restrictions by several countries calling them discriminatory. coming up on the news hour from london, russia's military is accused of shifting the blame for
12:15 am
a ukrainian strike that killed dozens of its troops. after saying the soldiers broke a ban on using their mobile phones, we speak to ukrainian boxes, you've hung up their gloves to join the fight on the battlefield. and ins, fortner bakovich is said to miss to prestigious tournaments of the 2nd year running . ah, israel's new government has unveiled plans for an overhaul of the justice system, which will significantly weaken the supreme court. critic said will give benjamin netanyahu is government absolute power and undermine democracy by allowing it to pass laws. the court strikes down as unconstitutional. the plan was presented a day before the supreme court is due to debate. a new law passed by the government allowing a politician, convicted of tax offenses to serve as a cabinet minister. is now himself is on trial for corruption charges he denies
12:16 am
which are now from televi by marriage and unfair whose and is ready iranian middle east and listened lecture. israel's reichman university, thanks for being with us. so we just have to take us back a bit. what powers are these politicians unhappy with that the supreme court has at the moment unhappy with the fact that the supreme court can re tool law is passed by the government that are against the laws of israel. and they basically want to take away the power they want to overrule a supreme court. so they want to say that if, if $61.00 out of $120.00 members of the commit, that rule or rule on something then then that's the majority. and according to their version of the moxy, the people are spoken and the court system has no mandates to contradict them. that's the, that's the way the current government sees. and so what will the,
12:17 am
and what would the implications be for the way these were the court system works well basically we're no longer going to be a liberal democracy because the government knows the fact is that once somebody is elected ok to have the chief of mandates, but what happens after that they can do whatever they want. know because it has to be a supervisory body that checks them. what they're doing with the people mandate is legal is within the law and it protects the rights of minorities and the citizens. and that's the job of the, that's the job of the judy sheree. and this is something we've had since the birth of the state of israel. this is why we've been a liberal democracy. but once this happens, if the government going to be successful, then the government can do whatever it wants, basically. and you can do things which are even against the law on the and the, and the supreme leader. and the supreme court cannot stop them. and this is going to mean the end of it is rather the liberal democracy will become something like
12:18 am
urban or be to all the hungry list. i mean, what about now he himself and he's on trial for corruption charges, which he denies. what would the changes affect his trial to that's just one of the things also people are you. well, 1st of all, there's some people who believe that the reason why i want to do this is because later on down the line, you want to pass a law with the majority. that is, coalition government has that will say that he will be exempt from prosecution as long as he's in office. he claims that this is a cause, it's a french law, but actually it's not really, you know, the law in france also puts a limit on how many times somebody can run for prime minister in israel. we don't have that limit. so it's, some people are, are, it's, it's assumed that he will do this, we don't know. but what on the minds, the legitimacy of the con government with this movie, the fact that the prime minister has 3 cases against then that will be time as why
12:19 am
he's also he's indicted by he's, he's a minister dairy has, has 2 convictions. and he's part of the government, there's another somebody else was also convicted in government. he's been v i. c has been convicted at least on one occasion, if not 2 or 3. 20 it will be people with a judiciary fire from the judiciary and conviction, wanting to undermine the judiciary using democracy, you know, using claim of democracy and deborah on. why is it that so many people have had problems with the judy shouldn't be convicted or trying to undermine the did you the story? is it because they, we want them up with the because they have a problem with it is really legal system because the former criminals of their being prostituted. and that's the 2nd argument that currently being addressed. and this is why a lot of people will undermine and question the real motive of the current government to, to undermine the judicial system of israel. and it's and it's basically the ability
12:20 am
to, to, to, to create checks and balances against the government, which live on democracy is the norm. yeah, jeffrey done so. thank you very much indeed for your thoughts. thank you. to is really settlers have been caught on cctv defacing tombs at a protestant christian cemetery in occupied is to ru slim on sunday, and they were seen toppling headstones and smashing graves. the cemetery in the mount zion area has been attacked by a settlers several times. the last incident was in 2014 angry and bishop how some gnome is urging the israeli authorities to hold the pair accountable. an iranian actress has been released on bail following her arrest for supporting the country's anti government protest movement tyranny reduced. he was jailed almost 3 weeks ago on charges of spreading false information. she had condemned the execution of a protest her on social media. widespread demonstrations was parked by the death of
12:21 am
22 year old massa, many in police custody in september. president love him, is he lensky says, russia is planning to order. another mass. conscription for a new offensive and ukraine, even as its military face is internal criticism. over strike that killed scores of conscripts, russian military officials say the unauthorized use of mobile phones by its soldiers enabled ukrainian intelligence to locate their base in mchuga and carry out the deadliest attack on russian forces. yet in the conflict ukraine launched several rockets at a college russian troops were using as a temporary barracks, situated next to an army depot. in the occupied to net screeching. russia says $89.00 troops were killed when 4 rockets hit their building on new year's eve, including the deputy commander of the regiment. ukraine says up to $400.00 soldiers
12:22 am
died in the strike. the stair shooting out of what it came is currently a commission is working to investigate the circumstances of the incident. but it is already obvious that the main reason for what happened was the switching answer and massive use. contrary to a ban of mobile phones by personnel that were in the zone of reach of enemy weapons, this fact allowed the enemy to locate and determine the coordinator. location of military personnel cost for launching and missiles strike. val halligan harry is a russian defense analyst in moscow. he says it's not surprising that russian miniature officials are blaming the troops for the attack. these are actually reservists, people in their weight, twenties, or thirties, maybe somebody over 40 even who were cold up in the mobile partial mobilization. they have families and why was back in russian regions, apparently most of them came from the semi region and this was new year's. actually
12:23 am
the rockets hit one minute. sure. 12 o'clock you're coming in and that's the main holiday in the rush calendar. since the soviet times and people always phone their families that me telling them not to phone will not work if you can't, don't provide simultaneously secure way for them to connect to their well ones. so most likely that this fall, so there was most likely lapse of discipline. but there was also, of course we're, we're lapse in leadership. and the bad decision made this actually improvised barracks was just about 13 to walmart. there's from the front line in reach, not only of miss house, but those of a guns enhancers. you shouldn't really relax in such a place and gather
12:24 am
a lot of troops. and as a result of practically an entire region, russian regiment was decimated together with their commanding officers. and now no one really wants to take the boy rush as president to sent a ship armed with defensive missiles to the atlantic ocean in a signal to the west. that he will not back down over the war and ukraine. but to me, putin says rushes. zia con hypersonic cruise missiles on leveled to just it is for 0 as official here. now i want to thank the specialist in the defense industry complex, who created and started mass production of that unique weapon. please read it. as i said already, there is no equivalent in any country in the world. i know, i am sure that this powerful weapon will allow russia to protect itself much from potential external threats reliably and will help us serve our country's national interests. boxing is often described as ukraine's national thought is produced, numerous well champions, one of whom is now the mayor of keith,
12:25 am
but many of ukraine's top boxes and possible future champions of hung up their gloves to fight on the front lines. as charles stratford report to machine gun bullets ripped through alexander's legs. when he was fighting on ukraine's eastern front line, a 3rd bullet was stopped by the mobile phone in his pocket. his sciatic nerve was severed. you cannot feel his right leg. and he is afraid. he will never be able to fulfill his goal in life. in a sport, ukraine is famous for around the world boxing for internet major fillmore. it is not just a part of my life or it is my life. or should i say it was so, but now i need to find something else for you. ah, it is alexander, competing in 2016, rose to become clarkie of regional champion. before returning to fighting the war
