this is al jazeera. ah, i'm the parker, this is the news our live from don't. coming up in the next 60 minutes. china responded to south korea and japan's cove at 19 curbs on its travellers by suspending short term visas for their nationals. crushing force is intensify. they are salt on the east and ukrainian town of sola. dar will have the latest on the fighting with at least 17 people are killed and peruse. worse day of violence, protest began demanding the release jailed for president. and where live at a voodoo festival in benita place, widely considered to be the birthplace of the ancient ritual. that is for austell of set up an f, a cup cache. with manchester city, the premier league lead is dressing in his composition after 3 little when

a sticky note be brittany ah ordered to the news hours. just past 10, gmc, we start in china where the government has taken retaliatory steps against countries imposing covered 19 curbs on its travelers is suspended short term visas for south korean and japanese nationals. beijing says those countries entry restrictions for chinese travelers are discriminatory. soul says that based on science drop on can japan deep, regrettably, a few countries, still disregard science and facts and their own covered situation. they are imposing discriminated, entry, restrictions on china. china family reject these and will take reciprocal measures . weak coil and relevant countries which bestier measures affect than science and to take proportionate measures. we don't, we,

the south korean governments strength in quarantine measures for travelers arriving from china are based on scientific and objective grounds. the government has been transparently sharing relevant information with the international community and has continued to communicate with china through diplomatic channels. or people traveling from china to countries including south korea, japan and the united states are now required to show a negative coven 19 test result. unit kim is live in sol for us on this, but 1st let's go to caterina you in beijing and katrina china clearly sending a very strong message that it is not happy with this decision. what impact will these measures have? well, as we just heard, china's foreign ministry has addressed relevant countries. so this could go further in the future beyond south korea and japan. but so far, this is really going to have a significant impact on all parties involved to south korea and japan. china is

a top trading partner and south korea and japan. both have many businesses operating here that they will not be able to attend to in person. and that's going to hurt those businesses. and for china itself, it's no doubt going to impact china's orange bottom line. but the reason that china has decided to go forward with this is out south korea and japan have, among other countries in the world the strictest measures impose on chinese travelers. coming here, coming from here to those countries for south korea and japan, they require that chinese passengers take not one but 2 cov tests, one before arrival, and one on arrival. and if ever people are found positive with coven 19, they are required to take 7 days of quarantine at their own expense. and both governments have also asked their own airlines not to expand flights from china. now the background to all of this is out on sunday, china began easing. it's a border restrictions opening up to the world. so that means that while coven 19

tests are still required to people coming into china, mandatory quarantine at a government facility is not. and this has seen a surgeon bookings from chinese travelers going all over the world. and countries around the world have responded really in 2 ways. like one for example, it like thailand, they are extremely happy to welcome as many chinese taurus as possible. but on the other hand, a growing list of countries are very wary, and this includes the u. s. u, k, canada, and australia, for example. and this is because china's currency currently experiencing a surge and covered 19 infections. the w h o says that china has been under representing the impact of the out, right? yes. and it's urged aging to provide more accurate data regarding hospitalizations and debts. now, china has denied that it's withholding any in the nation despite releasing suspiciously low figures every day regarding the outbreak here. but still,

we know that other countries may be listening to this message in china's foreign ministry, wants them to, to really listen hard and use this as a warning that south korea and japan may not be the only countries who are the targets of these kind of counter measures from their drink. katrina. any thanks for that, catherine a you in beijing for us. we're eunice kim is live and soul. a juniors or the south korean authorities responding to all of it. yes, so they are saying that this is very regrettable. this decision out of beijing and that they will continue to work toward a solution through dialogue, but they are also doubling down on their position that their quarantine measures are not discriminatory, but that they are based on science that in the absence of regular and reliable cove at 19 data from the mainland, they will collect their own data and share it with the international community as

well as china. the sentiment on the ground, as you can imagine, is disappointment. there were people who headed into the chinese embassy here. and so for these as for business, for us or our purposes, but they were turned back and they'd now don't know when they'll be able to continue with their lives as planned. now it should be noted that travel between the 2 countries is not normalized since cove. it about 5 percent of flights in pre pandemic times are currently running with no plans for that to. i'll go up anytime soon. but having said that in 2019 china did it send some 6000000 tourists that year to accounting for about a 3rd of the overall. so any excitement that had come with the new year of south koreans traveling to china once again later in the year is now dashed. there is also concerns now of what this could mean in terms of implications for the

geopolitical sense or the use on our government. here in sol has been strengthening ties with washington and tokyo to push back against a more belligerent north korea. and certainly could this look like a coven restriction at bleeding into politics in the region. eunice came live in so many thanks for the update. now the new saudi arabia is, are moving all covered 19 restrictions for the hodge pilgrimage. this year is welcoming bad pre pandemic numbers of visitors to the holy side. the pilgrimage usually draws more than $2000000.00 people each year to the city of mecca. in 2020 numbers were limited to just 1000 people from inside the kingdom. last year, only $1000000.00 foreign pilgrims were allowed in, or hollered, but coffee is a professor at al faisal universe. he is also a writer, and little analyst, and saudi arabia. he joins us from istanbul. welcome to the news hour of the house,

of course, as we were just saying, one of the wells largest gatherings of people. this must be a huge relief for pilgrims now. yeah, sure. because for one year, at least, there was, you know, 2020, but then a little bit came up with 60600000. last year it came up to close to one to you. so this year may go back to the 2019. it was about 2 and a half. mm. a decrease and a lot of 32000000. so you are looking forward to this one dying the lifetime opportunity. so we show you that now there is no age it during the last few years, it was between 18 and 16. now there is no intersection,

so children can also senior people can will any new health cautions be taken as the pilgrimage returns? i mean, there have been some suggestion in the past that would be limited to people who haven't done it before. no, i so far there is no restrictions here. so you know, that is not almost a year now. we can throw without taking to we can go to also a lifecycle anywhere where you must so life, you know, and so the i to is a 1000000 of them can last year, especially to re up for their yup season and then went to go for the water and came to saudi arabia. so i believe

a normal expected height expected on the good news. the edges section are, there's no more and there's no limit on numbers for you. also there was a feature, so anyone who wish to come to so the can any time during the year, not just in the season a young last month and now that about 2 and a half, maybe more reviews. i just would great in one place, shot course to the saudi authorities, but so far we succeeded out and brought them a piece of mind as how it works. because many pilgrims have to go through

registered travel agents, particularly when they're coming from the west. will these companies now be undergoing more scrutiny? will they be looking more closely into who wants to travel their occupants of the company? some the was for us there is no easy to worry. anybody who are in good shape for us to come from this year or is it also exclusive right to come with an agency or i could just contact directly a company and cheese die bryson right terms and sign up with a another with a a not yesterday holler, but our free great to have you on the news. i thank you very much. you're welcome.

plenty of, oh, i had of the news out including brazil's lead urges his generals to stand up to the supporters of former president john bolton aro, calling for a qu on the man to find out why scientists say the hole in the ozone layer is shrinking in school to top level, a straight there football team have been slapped for the record. fine andy's here with that story. ah! fighting and ukraine's dumbass region is intensifying. the british defense ministry says it appears. russia has taken control of the small salt mining town of solid, odd ukraine's ministry has been fending off attacks near the town for 4 days. it's near buck moved, where troops on both sides have suffered heavy losses or more in their slaps. go to charles stratford whose lie for us in care for charles. what more can you tell us

about this apparent gain by russian force but it's very difficult, as you can imagine, to verify these kind of claims. what we do know though is that solider is a huge strategic importance as part of, of wider assault by russian forces on the town of bar mood, solid. our is around 20 kilometers north. east of bock moved a small mining town use of a population of around $10000.00. we've seen video evidence of face battles ongoing there and certainly the u. k. defense ministry saying they think it's likely that russian forces have taken control of most of that town. last night we heard from president zalinski saying that sir ukrainian forces in his words, had one more time in or in solid, are again pointing to the importance of bar moved to the south. and we also know

though that this town has been contested for months. now, largely i'm, he's been hit by am heavy artillery from the russians, but we knew we do know now that according to military analysts and these intelligence reports that the fighting seems to be very heavy and in the streets. indeed, there been witnesses quoted on some of the agencies who managed to escape the town describing having to move a back street by street as tanks moved in. and interestingly as well, there are reports that heavy contingents of the wagner group this sir private mercenary group, who's a leader. if guinea pri goes in is very close to vladimir putin, alice to saying that the wagner group are making up a large number of russian forces, fighting for a full solider. and again, interestingly, on the wires, there has been an a statement made a picked up by social media or from social media by preggers in he actually saying

that the fighting there in solid are, is on guy. as i say, the reason why this is important is because solid, our is to the northeast of pa, quote, and we know that there has been months of fighting for control of the town of bar moot, a town that has been given a nickname, a meat grinder, we know that russian forces are to the east of bar mote. and arguably, some people are saying actually in the town in the east, and there's also heavy fighting to the southeast of buffalo as they try and push north and back. moot is important because if russia took full control of that town, then it would potentially give them an easier route to the to largest town, still in full ukrainian control in the de net screech in the towns of kramer tools, consillio vance. and interestingly, in recent days, we've seen increasing shelling of unspecified targets artillery shelling by the russians of the town of cremmit tools as well. so yet all indications would suggest

fierce fighting for the control of the town of solid are all part of this plan by the russians to take control of pollute, but so far the ukrainians holding the bag when he thanks charles shall stafford live in keith at least 17 people have been killed in peru in the latest demonstrations calling for the resignation of president, dean ability. security forces confronted crowds as they tried to overrun an airport . in the southern city of uli aka arianna sanchez as more from lima. ah, security forces confront protesters in the southern region of who knew it over men says nearly 9000 demonstrators using homemade weapons and explosives, try to overrun the airport in the city of julio security forces responded with live ammunition. it's the deadliest day in more than one month of violence across may do one of the camera. i was holding my camera when

a police officer asked me to kneel while pointing a gun at me. then i heard a shot and felt my foot blocked. then i felt a cramp, i took 4 steps. i fell on the floor because i couldn't walk, official se ambulances were prevented from moving freely. a doctor was killed while assisting the wounded. and a 17 year old girl was shot and killed in the crossfire. hospitals are overflowing with some of the wounded in critical condition. if we go, i want to call him the central government. how can we have so many did people? tens of thousands of people have marched to demand. the resignation of president, dean of alertly, markets have been looted. roads blocked and 25 provinces are on strike. some of the victims were bystanders hit by stray bullets are coming in a bite, but he was out walking was friend, lives nearby and they went for a walk. and then as far as we know, a bullet hit him, the government blames former precedent is august. the year for the month long

unrest years it would be as well they, they sent me bolt, who announced a coup d'etat from the same government palace who is coordinating these demonstrations to seek impunity and to achieve what they did not know how to achieve or were not allowed to achieve the answer is in jail. see yourselves did in december after he tried to shut down congress and arrest the prosecutor investigating him for a legit corruption. with the violin filing, some members of parliament say they are unlikely to give the cabinet a vote of confidence on tuesday for either deepening the crisis. the government has promised to restore peace that many peruvians are unsatisfied and they say they will take their demonstrations to the capital to demand that precedent need. i will learn the step down and new elections be held immediately. me innocent is i'll just eda lena brazil's president has criticized the army for not doing enough to stop

supporters of his predecessor from storming the nation seats of power. louis anacio little de silver accused. the generals of not standing up to the protesters who are allowed to camp outside the military headquarters in brazilian. the president made the comments during a meeting with governors where he promised to punish those responsible for sundays attack. at least 1500 people have been arrested so far. oh, every one here is aware of the amount of people that were tortured for not agreeing with the military regime. and now the people are freely calling for a crew in front of the military headquarters, and none of them have done anything. no general stood up to say, this can't happen. it's forbidden to ask for that. it gives the impression that there were people who liked it when the people were calling for a coo and in brazil's largest city, sal paolo, thousands of people rallied in defense of democracy and to show their anger at sundays attack. a latin america editor, lucy, a newman, was there the 1st public response to

a very public attempt to undermine brazil's democratic institutions. many thousands of people gathered in. so paolo, the country's most populous city, to repudiate sunday's assault on the presidential palace supreme court, and congress buildings in the capital, brazil. yet like almost every one here, eliana blames former president jane bull. so nato, whom she believes was the mastermind of the attack. i know he must be jailed for all the things he's done in this country. he promoted militia thieves the tax on the amazon black guys, and now that we won't let the specious pass, never again. earlier police detained him, began questioning more than $1500.00 rubles sonata activists suspected of taking part in the assault. the camp did set up months earlier, just a kilometers from the presidential palace has been demolish. they'd echoed bull sonatas, unfounded claims that

a literal fraud stole his re election last year. although both of them all the justice minister says the culprits were hoping to inspire a nation wide revolt, but failed in their attempt to overthrow president lula. the silver who had been sworn in just a week earlier. mostly them all to copy thought, browse a little. we witnessed a brazilian version of the u. s. capital building attack, but with 2 differences. first, no one tied. and secondly, we have more people under arrest here than in the u. s. and very quickly, the investigation into financed and lead. the rage is just beginning. i bought a shot ride since yesterday. we believe many big business interests paid for the buses to bring those coo mongers to priscilla instead of camps. those businessman needs investigated and punished ah, demonstrators here also wanted to show that the president is not alone. they are swinging the game of name rob really imprisoned the president,

also nato. they're also saying that they will not tolerate in an estate or any of those people who already been there, calling terrorism numbers. but the justice minister says that for example, there's no possibility of extra guiding the former president. fernando from the united states, where he is right now because he hasn't been charged with anything, at least not yet. whether the newly installed president of latin america's largest democracy will be strengthened or weakened by the m. s. of entered attack is still far from clear lucy and human al jazeera. so paolo, you're as president joe biden has declared an emergency in the state of california, which has been battered by storms, tens of thousands of been ordered to leave their homes due to severe weather conditions. rentals reports from santa cruz hillside gives way in northern california. as the state reels from the impact of powerful back to back storms,

rain, wind, and high water have caused wide spread damage. evacuations, and several deaths. 35000000 californians are under a flood alert. tens of thousands are without power, and others face flooding, mud slides, and the danger of falling trees. several major highways are blocked. a lot of run off a lot of dangerous flash flooding potential with the system. and there's also high winds. president joe biden has declared a state of emergency in parts of california, which will allow federal aid and resources to flow in more quickly. one of the worst hit areas was here in santa cruz, where as you could see behind me the historic capital a war was cutting to buy heavy serv rivers also overflowed their banks and high winds, causes revere damage in shops and home. the cost of the damage is still being counted, but it will certainly run into the 10s of millions of dollars. further south,

near santa barbara, the upscale community of monta, seato was evacuated, the celebrity studded towns $10000.00 residents, include the duke and duchess of sussex. and oprah winfrey the flash flood death situation is now the potential is therefore county wide flash flooding. and so please stay vigilant. in santa cruz county, 32000 people were evacuated when the swollen sand, lorenzo river spilled over its banks. at least a dozen people have died in the storms. maria could shiara barely escaped a similar fate. a huge branch, harpooned my roof, and i live in a small studio. so i have 2 kitties and we it could have been killed. residents are frustrated by widespread road closures can't make it to work. it's like a, like a rat trying to get out of a maze,

trying to find that different little route to get them. 5 massive weather systems called atmospheric rivers have rolled in off the pacific in recent days. more rain is forecast for the rest of the week. the only benefit for californians is heavy snow fall in the mountains, which will help relieve the states severe drought, rob reynolds al, jazeera, santa cruz, california. well, from all this extraordinary storm in california, let's bring in with the present to jeff harrington and jeff, absolutely no sign of the storm letting out. absolutely. you know, knew that was around christmas, that we really turn the taps on here. and it's been pouring rain ever since. so a number of pacific storms have slammed into the u. s. west coast. this is our satellite picture, so it shows the rain cloud and even now we can see a number of systems right? 12, and there's the 3rd coming rate behind. so we are in the thick of this right now, but this time around, the rain's been particularly bad for so cal,

southern california. so darker the blue, darker, the yellow, that's the more intense rain. you know, about 2 hours west of los angeles in santa barbara, we had $247.00 millimeters of brain in a 24 hour period. so i know i'm thrown a lot of numbers at you right now, but all of that to say, half a years worth of rain in 24 hours. so not only southern california, also for no cow northern california, san francisco member, we were chatting about turning the taps on around christmas day from about december 26 till now. san francisco has been 628 percent above its average rainfall for that specific time period. now this next storm that we're going to be dealing with, you got rain on tuesday, a bit of a breather later on tuesday before that next round of rain moves in on wednesday. really a firehose of rain once again for northern california. so this is going to impact san francisco, we take a look at the 3 day forecast. look at this,

i don't think it's going to dry off until probably about thursday or friday. so. nice right now for the next 24 to 48 hours. we are in the thick of this, so it's still much more rain to come extra. i think it's half a year's worth of rain in 24 hours, but i'm just trying to many thanks for that. you kind of still ahead on out 0 ah, j bud and the mexican president ahead of a north american leader summit. later on tuesday we'll have more down sales decision to cool time on one of the most successful career. ah . with got a minute 15 to bring you up to speed. here's your weather report for europe in

africa and nice to have you along. so vigorous system is slamming into the west of greece. i think we are going to power up some severe thunderstorms here. that energy hops over the a g n also impacting western turkey on to state. that this same system has left behind a legacy of rain and snow through the balkans as temperatures dip in some spots. there will be a transition from brain to snow that include, sorry evo. and in between that transition, we could see some freezing brain verse of rain across the islands of ireland and brittany. i gotta tell you, there are weather alerts and play that some of this rain could bring flooding off to iberia. it's a mix of sun in cloud. i think that's eastern side of spain. that's where we're going to see wall to wall sunshine on tuesday. and off to the top end of africa, we go whether warnings in play for those winds across the coast of libya. gus about 60 kilometers per hour and could see waves about 4 meters high. as we dipped toward the south heat wave warning for the western interior of south africa, that's when we have temperatures 5 degrees above average for 3 days in

a row. but for cape town, you're pretty well where you should be for the year with a height $26.00 degrees. meantime rain sweeping across angola, right through to mozambique. and madagascar on tuesday. see you later. ah, think of some of the biggest companies in the today. all of them big take with algorithms that they call them, that we use them. the more data we produce were in the me, a great race to the data and big companies around the checks. empires are rising on a wealth of information and we need all the commodity in the 2nd of a 5 part series. not a ray examines where the corporations are colonizing the internet. like the popularity and power of big tech on a jetta, discarded clothes from rich nations or funneled to charities and sold to impoverished nations on an unprecedented scale. a massive industry sift through the

unwanted garments to re sell to some of the world's poorest inhabitants. but much of what the arrives is unfit for purpose and is fueling and environmental catastrophe. people in power travel to gonna to uncover the dirty secrets behind the world. fashion addiction that white man's clothes on a just either. ah ah, welcome back to watching al jazeera, remind of the top stories this our china has expanded short term visas for south koreans and japanese, and it's response to coven 19 curbs imposed on chinese travelers. beijing describes the measures this discriminatory a norm based on science. saudi arabia's removing all coven 19 restrictions for the

hodge pilgrimage this year. it's welcoming back pre pandemic numbers of visitors. the holy site usually draws more than $2000000.00 people each year to the city of mecca. at least 17 people have been killed in southern peru during anti government protest. amount of the release of former president pedro castillo. most of the deaths occurred as people try to overrun an airport in the city of beauty, aka your response that joe biden as push for tougher action on a legal migration of drugs in the meeting with the mexican leader and rest. manuel office over door. the talks come ahead of the north american summit where they'll be joined by canada's prime minister to raise a bow reports from mexico city. i u. s. breath and joe biden made with his mexican counterpart and the name on way lopez. so that order at the presidential palace in mexico city. it's his 1st trip to latin america since entering the white house. the 2 leaders held

a bilateral meeting to discuss some of the pressing issues affecting both nations and to improve relations that was trained by mr. biden's predecessor, donald trump, dividing the dinner la. yeah. president biden. you have the key to significantly open and improve relations between all countries of the american continent printing in the medical. yeah. on tuesday, mexico, the us and canada will discuss important issues ranging from economic corporation and climate change to legal migration and drug trafficking. we're looking at a bite and arrived a few days after the detention of will be the or the son of the drug loaded, known as a capital who is currently detained in american prison. experts say the u. s. is likely to ask mexico to do much more to stop the trafficking of illegal drugs such as spent any of that kill thousands of americans each year. but only said fighting the flow of drugs into the us will be c, fentanyl being the theme of the day. as it were basically depressing domestic

political issue in the us as well. more so than mexico. is that so far? everything seems to indicate that we're repeating the same mistakes that have repeated in the past. we are still relying on the same vocabulary to the same practices of trying to curb the flow of illicit drugs from mexico, from latin america, widely speaking into the united states and other parts of the western world. another key issue on the agenda, migration. hundreds of thousands of people are trying to reach north america every year. last week, president biden, and now super all programs to allow 30000 people from haiti. q of any will. and the girl was to enter the us legally every month. and mexico has said you will accept $30000.00 deputies from the us each month. over 2000000 people were detained, trying to cross the us mexico border in 2022 human rights were having very critical with north american countries migration policies that they,

they make it difficult for asylum seekers to find safety. but leaders in the region are also under pressure to find solution. many hope that you want to turn out if will be discussed during the meeting. that will not only criminalize my runs, but help them in a path to a better life base i will, as i see down the mexico city, leasing germany of moving climate activists who gathered near an open cut mine in the western village of loops or of thousands of carbonite for his form human chains set out the city to stop the expansion plans. early this week, police made repeated warnings for the protest as to leave the village, whose wrath is due to be demolished in order to expand a coal mine. as part of germany's plan to maintain coal supplies, while it reduces its dependence on russian gas and oil, o steel vassal joins as formed loose. raf, wherever an eviction is now underway and step are people putting up a fight there? well, they're not putting up a fight, but it's

a peaceful protest so far. what we're seeing now is these are the scenes had the largest gas, one of the largest so called might look like mines in germany. police has come in now or with more enforcements and brought in a technical equipment like a crane and all kinds of bulldozers. so people are basically blocking the road. it's like a human chain on the road and police is taking them one by one away from the road. so that's what we're seeing now in the last half an hour or so. the road has already been cleared quite a bit and we are quite close. now to the village showed her the entrance to the villagers being cleared by police, but there's a lot of activists here. hundreds of them here, i change to gather, and one of them here is say, eula, read all the from the group, a little hats lifts, and you are it basically in this human chain. the legal means have now been a finished to the last legal case was removed, basically you, you have to leave the village. what does that mean?

that means that the police us now brutally evicting as from defending the barricades around the village because of the capitalist interest of the entity company are w e that wants to call and we have to defend it because the climate change has already re let us already killing people all over the planet, especially in countries like nigeria, where the big flood was happening. and many people got homeless and we cannot earn what the young man cut cannot handle this climate change. if it is crossing tipping points. the government says, we need this coal because of the energy crisis, the war in ukraine. we need this for our energy supply. what do you say to them yet? it's a capitalist interest. they needed for profit. it's not for the needs of people, that's enough electricity for the needs of peeper, but this profitable company is destroying the planet by extracting so much college as far as making more profits. and it's making the best profits they ever made. and the crisis now we have believes also said there was some violence used by protests

as a couple of days ago, stones were thrown, so they're basically warning for a violent group among you. what do you say? i have seen so hard police violence today. i've seen people bleeding. i have seen people having huge r m m at arms, and i, i, i actually, we are defending this village for the livelihood of all people on the planet. so we are here in our rightful plays. and this is what we have to do. we have to defend the village even there. although there's a lot of police violence. again, are you prepared to use violence? are you guys prepared to use violence? we have to defend the village by the means that we have and now we're here in a. we are sitting, doing setting locates, we are blocking and try ports. we are doing lock ons. we're doing a wide range of actions and we're going to do everything that are needed to defend us village. thank you so much for joining us. so you can see the villages. so right . they are behind us and the police, her sad yesterday that it's going to be

a very complex and long operation to clear this village. they say it may take up to a month, but it's definitely imminent that police will move into this village soon. so for us in the life of the german village of loose raf money, thanks for that report. the i was and last shields life on earth from dangerous radiation. it had been seriously damaged by pollution. but now scientists say could soon make a recovery fence monahan has more an invisible barrier protecting us from the sun, decades of damage from pollution weekend the ozone layer. but now thanks to international action, it's finally on the mend ozone layer is on track to recover within 4 decades. in a new report you went back scientific panel, confirm that the phase out of nearly 99 percent of band ozone depleting substances has succeeded in safeguarding the ozone layer. leading to a notable recovery of the ozone layer in the upper stratosphere,

decreased human exposure to harmful ultraviolet rays from the sun. ultraviolet radiation can cause skin cancer and harm crops and marine life. the problem came with the development of what's known as c, f, c's, chemical youth and hundreds of products from refrigerators to hair spray. but when these chemicals enter the atmosphere, they damage the ozone. layer an international tree, he bam, cfc in 1987. but progress wasn't always smooth. in 2018 scientists detected a rise and cfc emissions. they were traced to factories and china, soon after emission levels resumed their downward trend. but despite promising predictions, experts remain vigilant for new threats to the ozone layer. the panel also examined new technologies such as jiro engineering for the 1st time it warned that the of the unintended impacts on the ozone layer caused by methods like stratospheric

is destroying the u. v. light, which is really favorable for us here, down here because without this own layer, life on earth surface would not be possible. and so therefore, we have to be careful not to destroy this thing. and this of course, is a really rare success story. a rare partnership between scientists, polly and policy makers and industry as well. what lessons are that you think in this when it comes to tackling climate change? widely? yes. so, so the montero protocol which is both done in $997.00, is really a success story because the industry and the policy really work together. so i think that that's also could be a role model. so for, for when we tackle climate change, but it's actually that the probably

something that's huge for iraq and i think for us it's an opportunity for us to actually showcase what iraq is like as a country now to people within the gulf region. and we've never really had this or public attention the media. and this in itself is huge for us. because whenever people buying the anything relates to come up in the media, it's always negative. it's always related to things like terrorism and corruption and all sorts. so we want to change so much of football as we saw the reason why is the best medium in order to spread messages of health, a piece of love, etc. parts of the country, no, don't want to develop, still need a lot of money on investment. the appalling aspect of things, especially in terms of the stadiums, they are top 10 and i can't wait for people across the world actually sit back and enjoy the seats and these beautiful stadiums. and even those watching at home, getting
