this is al jazeera ah, but i am the bunker. this is the news. our life from dough are coming up. in the next 60 minutes, russia joined forces with the wagner mercenary group, intensifying its assault on the east and ukrainian town of solider. china responds to south korea and japan covered 19 curbs on its travellers by suspending short term baez's for their nationals. brazil's leader urges his generals to stand up to the support is a former president job, both an arrow calling for a coo and on the mend sign to say the hole in the ozone layer is shrinking. we'll have a report on his boat also of sets up in africa, clash with manchester city. the premier league lead is progressing in this competition after a 3 no. when ever oxford united ah

welcome to the news, ours just passed. $1300.00 g m t 3 p. m. in ukraine's dumbass region where fighting is intensifying with moscow's troops being helped by mercenaries from russia's wagner group. the british defense ministries, as it appears, russia has taken control of much of the salt mining town of sola. dar, that's the back moose, where troops on both sides have suffered heavy losses. meanwhile, the russian state news agency task is reporting a change of command in the army. moscow is said to have promoted colonel general alexander lap in chief of staff of its ground forces. he was previously commander of the central military district, and russia's defense ministry says it's been conducting naval drills in the norwegian. c. it says it's frigate is armed with a hypersonic missile capable of evading western air defenses. will as go live now to charles ratford, who's in the ukranian capital key. even charles,

what more do we know about these are apparent gains by russia? well that's certainly what is being reported some interesting lines in the last, so 24 hours or so from ukrainians. president lensky last night, acknowledging that the battle for solid was indeed intensifying. he saying that the ukrainians had in his words, one time in order to get more men and supplies inside that town now solid is around 20 kilometers north, east of the town of buff mood. of course, buff mood is seen. some of the most intensive fighting over recent weeks and months . a town that is often nicknamed a meat grinder because of the sheer amount of men that have been killed in it. on both sides. as you mentioned in the intro, solely dog is a salt mining town. it is the largest salt mine in ukraine and it has a vast network of underground tunnels, around 200 kilometers, in fact,

have underground tunnels, some as high as 30 meters. i mean, a football match for example, is being held under ground in solely in the past. so one can you imagine this is a huge strategic importance. we can only speculate that certainly according to the russians, they are saying that the ukrainians are using those tunnels as defensive positions to store ammunition and so on. so we can only speculate the fighting. there is particularly incense because it is of such a strategic and military importance. whether we're going to start seeing such a thing as a seizure such as what we saw around the as a sol, plans in my real pool was months ago remains to be seen. but we do know that the fighting is incredibly intense, that the town had a population pre war around 10000 people report saw that the majority of those people have left one civilian,

talking to one of the news agencies describing how he was pushed back literally as the washing force he came forward going straight to street. as he escaped. he was talking about the use of tanks. and as you can imagine, heavy artillery as well, there's been some interesting lines from the heads of the wagner group, though. if guinea pri goes in now, he has said that the ukranian forces all bravely fighting for control of sony still. and any kind of reports of mashed. busy positions by the ukrainians he is saying is true and upper goes in is very close to vladimir putin. he's the head of this group that was, that was established around 2013. and of course, it's under the taurus reputation for fighting for russia's interests in places like syria, the central african republic, and libya. but yeah, we do know that there are lots of wagner mercenaries fighting alongside russian

forces in sony door. now, why is solely dom important? solely dollars is say is around 20 columns is northeast of buff. moot. we understand that the russian forces are trying, obviously, to move in from the north towards bach moot. but they're also pushing in from the east. there's trench warfare and the eastern areas of the city as well as the south east of the city. a city that has been fought for 4 months, but the moot is important. because if the russians took control of buck moot, then military analysts will tell you that it will make it far easier for them to then push on to the to largest urban centers is still under ukraine and control of kramer tools and slippery and scan what we've seen in recent days is increasing, shelling seemingly of unspecified positions or targets inside cremmit, sourced by the russians. so yes, it is fair to say that the situation the fighting is intensifying in solid are around buff mood. but as we stand of the ukrainian forces still seemingly managing

to hold the russians back. charles, many thanks so much. i'll stop for live in key if. ok, well let's set a close look at rushes. wagner grape. you already heard some points raised by charles, the private part military force was founded in 2014 after moscow annex crimea. the group is founded by russian business, man, you have guinea pig goes in. who's close to president vladimir putin. he also has a catering business and was once cool. putin chef developed the group recruited russian prisoners to fighting ukraine, promising they will be free men when they return, if they survive the war. alexander tito of is a russia analyst and lecturer at queen's university. belfast. he joins us now live from that. welcome to the program. so what is the volume groups? main purpose in this conflict is it to provide russia with a much needed when or really strategic advanced in places like solid on black mit? well, it's a bit of both because essentially there is

a lot of tensions and competition mean russian army in security forces between the java and gordon has established himself as a person who is distinct by the fact that he's group. i'm when you say group, we're talking about tens of thousands of man equipped with most modern weapons, including 90 tanks, aircraft chiller, and so forth. i actually the only ones who are able to continue to advance against the grading army in buffalo and so did our area where everywhere else for so new car to go. roches was this way. retreat to now, he hadn't been at it for many weeks. a month, i'll find it on the cost, seemingly over running a very important strategic strategic down. so it's a big win for pre gotten himself as, as well as for russia more generally. and clearly the group can't find this war alone. what does the involvement in this conflict

a tool say about russia's ability to find a conventional war? well, i think, you know, you have to be careful enough to distinguish between what they call themselves as a kind of private group and will then, you know, reality. i think they always been very closely linked with the russian armed forces and with russian security forces. usually that we used will, things which of the official russian forces didn't want to be in a seem to be doing. for example, in syria and in other parts of africa where the, where the raking but the sanjay, they are going to joined the heap with, with the russian security forces in russian army general. and if you look at the level of the equipment and military of things to have with them, as i said, including planes and so forth. and it's not just here, it was also in, in libya and so forth. you know,

you see that basic is an official. busy army, but basically they still are very much mot bought. of the positions also know more generally, but of the static friction is always gay in charge of it. and for him, it is extremely important to show that he is the one capable of winning when everybody else is in the russian side of this unofficial army, to the official russian army. we've heard news, the colonel general alexander lapin, has been appointed chief of staff of russian ground force is thus, despite, we believe, 5th criticism over his performance and ukraine in the past. what should we read into this appointment when the people who were criticizing him, where kind of close to pre gotten into darrow for the church and leader? so yes, they all these sort of the new generation of a army leaders who try to get of on demand and come on top against the old hierarchy built around chicago, the minister of defense. and you know, some of the head of the chiefs of staff. i'm so lucky was heavily criticized more

russian losses around luminaires in september and october because he disappeared for a mom from the public. a few and now he's been reported to so i don't think there is it settled that i, i, the faction is winning within this power games within the russian ministry of defense and going to security forces more generally. so he still locked in his but been brought back and seemingly given a promotion as well. so i don't think of pre gordon is o'connor of are having the upper handling of the steel. a lot of other people who are happy to, you know, stand the ground against them. i'm against, again, this is all comes against the background of actual fighting on the ground. and, you know, progression in the sense of having upper hand and having more afoot influence. because his troops are also successful, run back than solid or you know, to purposeful for more appointments and follow within the russian security forces.

but it's a big game and, and there's a lot of players and it's where fall for wants, which as happens appointment show. i'm not giving up alexander tito. really great to hear your thoughts of their settings under tito from queens, university professor ah, china has taken his 1st retaliatory steps against countries imposing covert 19 curbs on its travelers. it suspended short term baez's for south koreans and japanese citizens. beijing says entry restrictions for chinese travelers are discriminatory. katrina, you reports in beijing. china seems to be using south korea and japan to send a message to other countries which have impose restrictions on chinese travelers in hopes that the role these research in fact. and it's also wanting nations that are considering imposing restrictions, asking them to think twice about it. now this move is going to impact all parties

involved to south korea and japan. china is the biggest trading palm and there are plenty of south korean and japanese businesses with operations here. and they will no longer be able to send the business people here to attend to those in person. and this will also no doubt impact china's own economic boss and why. but according to china's foreign ministry, dating says that it has the right to impose countermeasures on these countries. drove on ginger pat deep. regrettably, a few countries still disregard science and perfect and their own covered situation . they are imposing discriminatory entry restrictions on china. china family rejects these and will take reciprocal measures what we call and relevant countries which are bestier measures effective in science and to take proportionate measures . on sunday, china began opening up its international borders while corbett 19 tests are still required for those entering the country. mandatory quarantined the government facility is not. and as a result, we've seen a surgeon booking some chinese travelers going all over the world. and there's been

a split response to that. some countries like thailand are happy to receive as many chinese tours as possible, but other countries, including the u. s. u. k. canada and australia are wary because at the moment china is experiencing the surgeon corvette 19 infections. the w h her has said that beijing has been under representing the scale of the outbreak here, and it wants of aging to provide more accurate hospitalization, and dec told data the china denies that it's withholding any information dislike. continuing to release suspiciously, low figures and duties. kim has worn south korea's reaction from so south korea says beijing's decision is very regrettable. doubling down on its position that it's warranty and policies are not discriminatory, but based on science, but certainly on the ground level on the people, the people exchanged. there is disappointment. those who had headed into the chinese embassy here in store for a visa on business trips or school trips,

were turned back disappointed, and they don't know when they will be able to continue on their planned lives. it should be noted that travel between the 2 countries is not normalized about 5 percent of flights from pre pandemic levels are currently running with no immediate plans to raise that. but in 2019 china did send the most number of tours to south korea about $6000000.00 accounting for about a 3rd of the total that year. so any hopes that had emerged in the new year that south koreans would be able to travel to china is now being dashed. also percolating is the concern of geopolitical implications. the, using a government has been, frankly, ties with washington in tokyo to push back against a belligerent north korea and a more ambitious beijing. so could this be quarantine and cove issues leading into the politics?

saudi arabia's removing all coven 19 restrictions for the hodge pilgrimage. this year is welcoming back pre pandemic numbers or visitors to the holy site. the po, make progress 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 and the $1000000.00 foreign pilgrims were allowed in khalid, but toffee is professor at al faisal university. he says, this year could see more than 2000000 people make the pilgrimage. for one year, at least, there was, you know, 2020, a little bit. you know, 60600000 last year came up to close to 1000000. so this year may go back to the 2019. it was about 2 and a half 1000000 high. so that's a huge increase and

a lot of 32 millions of hard use who are looking forward to this one guy. opportunity. so we show that now there is no age it during the last few years, it was between $18.16. now there is no interest actually. so shipping can also senior people are plenty more, had all the news i including ah, at least 17 people are killed in peruse, worse day of violence, protest began demanding the release of the jailed former precedent. severe storms and floods. batter northern california, forcing thousands of people from their homes and in support. a top level australian football team have been hit with a record fine, and he's here with us story. ah,

our brazil's president has criticized the army for not doing enough to stop supporters of his predecessor from storming the nation seats of power. lewis, unnaturally de silver accused the generals of not standing up to the protest as who were allowed to camp outside the military headquarters in brasilia. 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. 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 with the people were calling for a group plan in brazil's largest city, sal palo,

thousands of people rallied in defense of democracy and to show their anger at sunday's attack or latin america editor lucy 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. yeah, almost everyone here, eliana blames former president james bull sonata, 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 gays. and now, beth, 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 both scenarios. unfounded claims that electro 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. most of them is all to copy thought browse a little, we witnessed a brazilian version of the u. s. capital building attack, but with 2 differences, ist no one died. and secondly, we have more people under arrest here than in the us. and very quickly, the investigation into financed and lead the rage is just beginning. i bought a shot ride yesterday. we believe many big business interests paid for the buses to bring those coo mongers to priscilla instead of camps. those businessmen need to be investigated and punished ah demonstrate was here. also wanted to show that the

president is not alone. they are swinging that game name, rob really, really imprisoned the former president. so now they're also saying that they will not tolerate in an estate or any of those people have already been arisen. they are calling terrorism numbers. but does this mean if this isn't 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 as it entered attack is still far from clear. lucy and human al jazeera. so paolo alive now to monica n. okay. if he's outside the panata palace in brasilia, monica president, luda raising concerns about exactly where the armies,

loyalties lie and the handling of course of these demonstrations are yes, but all so last night he gave yet another very short interview where he said that he was not going to point fingers right now, what he's feeling and what analysts here that we've been speaking to have said is that he came out of this crisis of this attack strengthen because in one day yesterday he had 27 governors of all the brazilian states. here in brasilia, even those that were bull. so now supporters of former president you um for present valuable. they were all up in favor of democracy defending by chris c. so they were all acting against a common enemy. and he also all the 3 legislative powers, i mean the 3 powers, all rally together, also in defense of democracy and the markets saw this is

a very good sign, and that is wide that the, the markets reacted positively to this. now the greatest challenge will be can he use this momentum to pick up the pieces of the, of the country? this is still a very divided country. so arm, this is a very shocking event that happened behind me. i don't know if you can see, but they're still clearing up the debris. but at least they say here that the buildings may have been shattered, but the institutions have been strengthened. or monica, what happens now when it comes to the president bringing those involved in all of this to justice house thought process been begun to rena. yes, it has. yes. they're doing. going to do 3 investigations on the attacks of the 3 separate buildings. the congress, as the supreme court and the presidential palace,

the already interrogating the 1500 people that were detained yesterday. some of them were kept out in front of the army barracks but not necessarily participated in the attacks. so they're trying to find that they're also already, they traced down, are people that 10 companies that financed are bringing these people back and forth from across the country to brazil. ya. and are they know that they are people that financed them in 10 separate states? that's why was so important that the 27 governors were here because that means that the will be hopefully a coordinated action to catch these people and just to stop radicalism from spreading, brazil won't continue divided, but the problem is facing the extremes. and that is good, important, so that will continue. but also congress wants a parliamentary inquiry. now if that happens, then yes,

they can start to point fingers a giant ball. so nato was already been blamed for politically, instigating these attacks, monica on a curve life outside the pronounce, her palace and brazilian. many thanks. here, a specimen, joe biden has declared an emergency in the state of california, which is being batted by storms. tens of thousands have been ordered to leave our homes due to severe weather conditions. robeto's ripples 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 cloth, 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

ahead of the north american summit, where they will be joined by canada's prime minister. there is a bo reports, mexico city, i u. s. president joe biden made with his mexican counterpart and bremen way, lopez, hotel or at the presidential palace in mexico city. it's his 1st trip to latin america since entering the white house. but 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, the 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. in montera bite and arrived a few days after the detention of will be the old man, the son of

a drug loaded, known as chapel, who is currently detained in an 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 killed thousands of americans each year. but only thing 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 happened repeated in the past. we are still relying on the same vocabulary to 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 and 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

car 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 say 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 run, but help them in a path to a better life base. i will. i see that mexico city. ok, well let's bring in pablo, count her on martinez, he's electra and politics and in social relations at northeastern university in london, he joins us from the british capital. welcome to the program and has always been the easiest relationship, has it between the united states and mexico? is this a chance to reset relations that have soured over the past decade?

oh, so yeah, maybe possibly, i mean relationships i've never been smooth in the countries and it stops around like maybe when she'd been any sort of neighbors, i suppose. but yet, there is no doubt of the last few years, particularly the presidency of drum on the inflammatory remarks of during the battle chop administration. when a ship some, some i was our some extent, but it's also true that a positive person, a relationship where they sorta warmly about each other. at the end of the day, i think both bunches recognize and realized that they very much depend on each other. and got rich countries is absolutely necessary in all of the issues that you were mentioned before your commentary. so there is a chance to reset their relationship a certain extent, but it's about learning from mistakes from the past. and i'm trying to get really the best possible relationship with the frequency, not american, not just the newest mexico,

but we'll see what happens. we'll see what can be done to improve an issue with the countries and deal with the most pressing issues. and talking about those passing issues, mexico's been under a huge amount of pressure. i wanted to control a legal migration and to stem the flow of drugs. but what support is mexico actually getting to do this sounds like a whole q leon task? well, reality when it comes down to the flow of illegal drugs, any possible mission by you simply cannot be stopped, right. it is the largest and pieces on border in the world. far be sure that any other border across the world. so yeah, the flow of illegal drugs job and no matter what you do, no matter what you try to do, no matter how many people die in the process. as long as there is a demand for these drugs and the profits of the drugs are so massive, there is always going to be the demand being fulfilled by illegal going to stations in mexico or elsewhere. that's just on denial. so what can mexico do pretty much depends on what the appetite there is in mexico to fulfill this commitment to this

. all of these, especially, i didn't say it really depends of what makes you really extract from the us. so, mexico seen a very sort of peculiar situation in which it has some degree of leverage over the united states because of the issue because of the monthly la border. so mexico can actually extract some benefits. i could get some benefits from the united states big and, but us of trade or support or whatever you may want to, to choose the plays with these already play this part about this, to some extent. i think the one mexico has probably no other country in the world. very simple. if you want your southern board to be secure, if you want us to do our job and try to stop the substances, then you're going to have or you're going to have to give us something in return. because at the end of the day, that is your program for the us. it's not really up on that for mexico or drug using mexico. not a real issue as much as it is in the united states was flesh let out

a little bit. what is it precisely that mexico want to be united states? you hinted that economic try ties that have on in, in increased trade. but what would benefit mexico this particular moment in time with many countries of the forefront of global economic downturn? i think mexico's already benefiting to some extent from the particular family, no relation to the china and the united states. we know of the manufacturing shipping bag from china for the united states and mexico because of the free trade agreement that activities in mexico. and i've been states, i think mexico will one the senior will, one for investment in mexico wants to see if it's a trade in mexico and by the united states. i would have been kind of struck for mexico. for example, donald trump would have been, be ripped up the north america free trade agreements. i think the renegotiate, thing of the free trade agreement was in the 4th step. i think mexico really was, it thinks more or less as they are. because in terms of the economic downturn,

felt the short blow minimize the effects of the minimizing the great extent. because if close preparation is close, economic when a shift in the united states. but that could easily change as well. if the united states to 60 change its policies slightly, countries of to be a little bit more protection, is going to come down to both north american neighbors. so it's really a threat carefully with what you demand from the united states bras. pablo counter mostly it's really great to hear your thoughts on all of that. public out martinez from ne university in london. the us justice department is reviewing a bunch of potentially classified documents found in president joe biden's, former office. the documents were founded november 2022 in a locked close by his personal attorney at the by the center. it comes with republic and take control of the house of representatives. promising to launch widespread investigations,

biden's administration. the us house of representatives has passed a set of rules to governance debates for the next 2 years. the vote was seen as an early test of kevin mccarthy's power, a speaker all but one republican supported the rules package that despite criticism that mccarthy made too many concessions to the parties right wing faction to win the speakers job. the new rules include allowing any politician to call for mccarthy's removal at any time. mccarthy has also given the same faction control of a committee that decides what bills the house will consider. police and germany ever moving climate activists who gathered near an open cut mind in the western village of lute seraph, thousands of climate act was formed human chains and set up a city to stop the expansion plans early this week, police made repeated warnings for the protest as to leave the village luther, athens to to be demolished in order to expand a coal. mine is part of germany's plan to maintain coal supplies. while it reduces

its dependence on russian gas and oil. barson has more from the camp. police is clearly moving closer and closer to the village to lose her hat and i'll step out of the shot. so you can see what we are talking about. this is the village that is now at the center of an international climate protest. it's basically on the edge of one of the largest lick night brown coal mines here in germany, and the village has to be demolished. all legal battles have been lost by the climate groups. and you can see also on the village there is this banner. it says $1.00 degrees, that's the temperature. that, of course, has been decided by the, by iris climate, an agreement that would be the maximum temperature if that is really the aim of germany than this village should stay. so it's basically very symbolic for this climate movement, and they have been chaining themselves here on this road to make sure that the police couldn't get to the village. but as you can see,

a heavy equipment has been brought in by police. all kinds of bulldozers, cranes are there were active, it's very high up in polls and they also have been removed. police has basically brought in all kinds of experts like climbing experts, all kind of technical advisors to make sure that this whole operation, which they have described as very complex and dangerous, are to be done as peaceful and safe as possible. now a national v today festival is being held in burning. ah, the country is widely seen as the birthplace of today. and the celebration start with the ritual sacrifice of a goat. the festival also involves music dancing and drinking alcohol, a procession to the atlantic ocean pace, respect to enslaved ancestors who were taken away from beneath. address is a new dow where beauty celebrations have been going on for days. this is yesterday

for even or it was yesterday like the price was so the $2.00 side rails and they walk different parts of the world, especially the place was to be part of the sentiment was created 11 years ago when the government in 2015 was religion and all that so basically when we go to see you today, we are going to what additional weight say by the way, most of more ship. yeah. by people from the video like something we spent

the presentation will also be probably going to be brief, probably one hour, but again, hold on with me because i was supposed to but also an economy like bringing today, book on a truck more toward the 1st attempted satellite launch from western europe has failed to re job with the company behind the mission blamed an unspecified problem with the rocket. it was deployed over the atlantic ocean from modified. boeing 747 aircraft, which is safely returned in south west england. the rocket had 9 satellites on board, still had on al jazeera in sport house to rock might like whether of saudi arabia or in the arabian gulf cup. and these here with best

ah ah

ah ah ah, there is a last shields life on earth from dangerous radiation. it had been seriously damaged by pollution, but now scientists say it could soon make a recovery. fit to model have has more an invisible barrier protecting us from the sun, decades of damage from pollution weaken the o there. but now thanks to international action, it's finally on the mend. the 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, chemicals used and hundreds of products from refrigerators to hair spray. but when these chemicals enter the atmosphere, they damage the ozone. layer. an international treaty ban cfc the 1987, but progress was delayed, 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. the predictions are promising, but other challenges remain. i think that that those who could be

a role model also for, for but when we tackle climate change. but it's actually that the probably of those are quite restricted because there are some substitutes away level or for the says he sees which really destroyed his oath and they are nowadays the old book, the substitute and for for the problem is that the climate change is that c o 2 cannot easily be substituted. the final hole in the ozone layer of the antarctic are set to be healed by 2066. the rest of the world will be sooner around 2040 activists hope to success could prove a model for cooperation. as the world faces other challenges like climate change, fenton monahan al jazeera. okay. time for the sport now his at the thank you so much nave. well, osler set up an f, a cup clash with manchester city. the premier league lead is beating oxford united in round 3 at he and cassius school 2 of austin's goals in this 3 mill when that

makes it 5 goals. in 6 games for and kathy he's really capitalized. in the absence of brazil's gabrielle has su, picked up an injury at the world cup in cat. so now 5 time champions league when a garrath bail has decided to call time on his career bows. last appearance was for wales at the world cup in cattle. the 1st time wales had reached the finals in more than 60 years, barrels most successful club stint, was at rail madrid and had all finished at los angeles, f. c, where he won the molest cap, the frustration, mostly for gareth. but for us as things were a bit stop start at times and i think there was temptation were that frustration would when the day when we talk about the narrative of what garrath bales time had . ellie of c meant here, but at the end it worked. that's all out. i mean, all we have enamel as cup because of everybody, but without him we don't have an amola cup. well, ben hayward of $440.00 magazine says bail is arguably the most successful british

player of all time. he always looked ahead to the world out in counselors. he's kind of big finale and that was a huge motivation for him. so i think probably he felt now looking back on that. so the time is right to draw the line under the very 1st name. you know, i think several, yes, you know, the last 2 or 3 students want them. maybe the 1st 2 or 3 years around the drake was a wonderful player. one of the very best in the world and it's different playing around with it as the playing it. so he was the big buzz at rheumatoid. it was a bit different. he was playing with, with christiana, now to and others. i was thinking he was a plan who will be remembered for moment, wonderful moments around madrid, year he scored some hugely important goals for them. i can be

a good kid against liverpool in that wonderful. started run against function owner in the cooper delray final the i think you'll be remembered as a truly great plan. and perhaps the greatest british plan, certainly the greatest british plan to play the broad a golf cap, host a record of their 1st when of the tournaments a beat asian joint, saudi arabia, him bouncer, i gang fight in ranch range. iraq wanting to know there's all the put some sort of great pay this full point stuff to suit game. so the 1st time iraq is hosted in international tournaments and more than 4 decades. and we'll write the name boil. so the chance for the world to see is country in a different lights, one or 2 games here and there, but unfortunately for different reasons, people have denied us. so what should appease, so for us to be hosting one of them this magnitude was the,

is outside of our fee for days was locked into the official tournament. it's still 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 low 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 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 some of the football as we saw, the reason why the best medium in order to spread messages of hope, a piece of love, etc. parts of the country, no, don't want to develop, still need a lot of money on investment. the fulfilling aspect of things, especially in terms of the stadiums. they are top 10 and i can't wait to people across the world actually sit back and enjoy the seats and these beautiful stadiums

. and even those watching at home, getting a glimpse of what we can actually achieve when things are operating smoothly away from the veins of corruption and what we can actually do as a country when we get an opportunity to do so. i'm australian aly called the melbourne victory. i've been stop to the record fine after a pitch invasion last month. the incident happened during this game against melbourne city, the referee in the city go to the both suffering injuries full time lead champions for find $380000.00 and have been banned from selling tickets. in the main support section behind the goals and buffalo bills play, the mar hamlin has been released from a cincinnati hospital a week on now after he suffered that cardiac arrest. during again, the 24 year old and a fell star was airlifted to buffalo, where he will continue to be monitored how many have to be recessive tapes after
