but keith says the fight for salazar is still on. ah, you're watching all your life from a headquarters and they'll find navigator also ahead. police in germany begin removing the last climate activists protesting against the expansion of the coal mining. a new study finds exxon mobil publicly don't please, climate change this by it's fine. just predicting global warming from fossil fuels during the 19 seventy's and china is export. shrinking december, a global demand falls, undermining hopes of a global economic recovery here. hello, russia says it's captured. the issue is there is turn, excuse me ukrainian. santa salazar ukraine has denied that saying severe fighting

is ongoing. natasha butler reports from keith from above. the scale of destruction in solid door is clear and so is the danger. smoke below his above buildings as ukrainian armoured vehicle weaves through what's left of the eastern ukrainian town on a mission to evacuate injured servicemen. ukrainian military officials say the situation in solid are, is critical, but that their soldiers are holding on. so toward cervical, none of the situation is difficult, but stable that we are holding bags and nobody lose the position. so we are fighting back some ukrainians, fighting in solid r say they need more ammunition and back up ukraine's president says that they'll get everything that they need. the donor is in raleigh. we have analyzed in detail the decisions needed. 3 enforcements needed on the steps to be taken by commanders in the coming days. we have also discussed the situation with the supply of weapons

and ammunition to the troops and used for months, solid. r has been the scene of relentless and intense fighting. but roches defense ministry now says its forces have taken solid are visual allows for jojo. on the evening of january 12th, the liberation of the city of solid all was complete, which is important for the continuation of successful offensive operations in the de netscape regional donna early a russian mercenary group. wagner posted a video online saying that it's fighters. what was ready in town i, russia has focused on taking solid as part of a push to capture the entire eastern ukrainian don bass region. but it has come at a very high price. russian and ukranian losses have been high for civilians. the situation has been devastating. most people have fled solid are, but more than $500.00 people remain, including children, ukrainian forces are racing to try to evacuate them while they're still time.

natasha butler al jazeera keith. let's bring an early hasha was joining us from moscow. so what is their strategic significance of solid are and battling through the russians while they're in for the russians taking solid means solidifying their position toward staking by want. and this is why they are right now kind of celebrating what they call us liberation of solid on. however, there are 2 point of views. he had a more school over this event, the ministry of defense emphasizing the role of its forces. the artillery, the ground forces the aerial forces in taking folly the while on the other side, the wagner group, dom soneta, group a should statement in, in, in what was like presented as a, as an answer to

a question on it's delegate. i'm channel saying that the only forces that were present in solid are where the why do you have forces? why the, why fight that is over there. and that any disconnect the thing for the group is it is because of corruption and bureaucracy within the official rank. so this is kind of very interesting in the internal debate here and more school. however, putting this aside and looking to the whatever is happening to the advancement to the russian advisements and in ukraine. this could be within a context that started following christmas orthodox to truth. and later on the appointment of a new commander for the operation in ukraine. the new commander is the chief of staff himself and this, the flex and tendency and

a weighted within the leadership here in more school to give a new perspective or maybe to push this operation forward. not putting all the responsibility on the board and of the chief of staff means either he is to do this or to achieve something or to leave because any failure will mean that he will leave. so this is the picture in general from, from most school, and it's expected that the following days when witness more battlefield event. now, with respect to what's going to drop into bad mood, this is, this is left to the, to the field. ok, thank you so much. already has some reporting from moscow police in germany or spending a 3rd day there trying to evict protesters in the village of louis serat, the climate activists are trying to stop the expansion of a coal mine. they expect thousands of people will join them on saturday. the boston

has more from the protest camp. we were right inside who are on the attic with a group of activists who have actually handcuffed themselves to the attic, glued themselves to the attic, blew themselves together. and the moment police burst in they came, the latter was up, we were locked in, sunny police came in the ladder came up, a police really came in with like 2030 at the same time. and they tried to convince them to still leave. but of course, they are stuck, they are now trying to remove them with all kinds of equipment that they brought with them. but during this whole scene, the activists continue to sing their slogans, their songs about climate, justice songs against the expansion of the mind or the spirit was still high. i have to say that they were quite a bit, but of course it was quite attend situation with such a force of police coming into this building. we were removed and we are now

standing outside as you can see. but the climate activists are still in there, they're still a few also on the roof. and there's also some people hanging in ropes. so they have shown some serious acrobatic skills here to have been training for this. so they were trying to make it as difficult as possible for police to reach them. but please of course has brought all kinds of equipment and i can show you here on the other side, the village has been cleared quite a bit already. you can see the machines over their trees have been cleared. there's been heard and structures because climate activists have been camping in this village for around 2 years. the residence of this village around 50 to a 100 of them half left already a while ago because they have had long legal battles with the energy company r w e, and they lost all these battles. but instead of the residence, this climate activist came in oil, ryan, exxon mobil, accurately predicted climate change decades ago, but downplayed its findings, dots,

according to a paper published in the peer review journal science. it's the 1st to fully analyze the company's internal research x. a mobile scientists produce more than 150 studies on climate change. over 40 years. they project the temperatures are increased by 0.2 degrees celsius on average every decade that matches the current rate of global warming. the authors of the study say the research was astonishingly accurate and proved x and mobile knew as much as academic and government scientists . but the company claims until the 2010, the climate science was uncertain. and there was no proof the use of fossil fuels contribute to global warming. steven singer is the senior advisor, climate action network international. he says that x a mobile deliberately burried its research to protect its profits. exxon was lying. an exxon was basically suppressing the science which they had funded,

starting in 19 seventies to look as a kind of plot, pleasurable exercise or entertainment to look into what the climate would do if you keep on burning fossil fuels. and when, once it turn out that the scientists are very clear, very precise, very science based. they said, oh, holy cow, and i dismissed the scientists. i close the unit and tried to press all the knowledges and all the documentation. exxon ceos lay raymond and others happy openly and publicly denouncing the what they called the siri of climate change as a kind of curtailment of energy use for poor people. because exxon was leading a very strong anti climate unto clean energy coalition, worldwide with other fossil fuel companies. they were leaving that. and it's saying it's all nonsense. what these 3 hogs saying? oh nonsense. it's wrong. i hope that litigation works at the sky. it's going to be

penalized all fossil fuel companies in the run of the year 20. 22 will have profits of records. more than $400000000000.00 us dollars. now us be how much money is going into renewables and energy efficiency and clean technologies? hardly anything. or going back to fossil fuels, japan says, is planning to release a 1000000 tons of waste water from the from consumer nuclear power plant into the pacific ocean. this year. it's been storing water that was used to cool damage reactors after it's meltdown almost 12 years ago. japan says it's filtering technology can remove all radioactive materials, except tritium, which is harmless, in small amounts. the plan has been endorsed by the international atomic energy agency. so if korea and china have voice concerns about the plan discharge units, kim has more from sol, telco has called it an unavoidable problem and it has been

a lightning rod of concern and criticism. over the 2 years is the announcement of the initial plan. now we have a general timeline, some time in the spring or summer months to begin the relief of this treated, but still radio active nuclear waste water into the pacific ocean. now room at the book with you, my dieting nuclear plant has been running out with more than 1300000 tons of the waste water in tanks, after cooling, corroded reactors over the near 12 years. and the magnitude 9 point. 02 hawkins. equate the release of that water to take place a kilometer from japan's pacific coast could extend decades and tokyo insist that the water will be treated. and se containing only trace amounts of tritium, which is filled radioactive. many consumers as well as environmental groups, are still unconvinced. including those in neighboring south korea,

which is among the top consumers of fish you're gonna pump isn't always all. i think the government must take a tough response to this golden rule and they'll do. i do like such shame and other seafood. but if it happens, i'm have to think again, it cuts back what you think that they will do as fishermen and japan watch to see what this could mean for their sales. the i. e. a says it will monitor the entire process, soap as it will all set with top priority on the people safety. the man accused of killing the former japanese prime minister. sins ave has been formerly charged with murder. to ca. i'm a gummy has been in custody since our bay was shot dead in july. he's been deemed fit to stand trial after undergoing psychiatric assessments. police said, yeah, my god, me admitted to the killing he could face the death penalty if convicted police in south korea recommending $23.00 officials be charge in connection with the halloween crowd surge that killed nearly a 160 people. police are to tell prosecutors on friday that failure to plan for and

control the crowd. lead to the crush in october for police expected a crowd of 100000 people in deployed 100. 37 offers to tackle drugs and crime experts say pedestrian safety wasn't adequately prioritized. thousands supporters of the prominent shop politician looked at the sudden have gathered in baghdad for friday prayers. it's their 1st show of force since widespread demonstrations last year, calling for political reforms without de la hedge as a latest from baghdad. thousands of supporters of but she, oddly that most of us have come to perform a friday mass congregation. prayers in outside of the city and the iraqi capital abroad. meanwhile, other supporters are performing the same players in other provinces, across iraq as well. they say that this is a religious occasion because visit the anniversary of the bertha taught to missouri

his supporters want to say that we're still here. we're strong and we can make a come back at any time stella had on the on al jazeera we are going to take a very short break and we will be by and it just a minute. and we'll tell you about what's happening in peru. 2 ah, refusing to back down supporters of the house, the president demands new elections. ah, it's still raining in the philippines as the circulation here, massive has been around for several days now. it's dropped many months worth of rain in a few places. and it's still raining, obviously there are flood warnings and unders significant risk of landslide or the

systems expanding a bit. the rains going a bit further north, the bit for the west giving some relief to those who had nothing but persisted brain and elsewhere in southeast asia. there aren't that many shares is daily event admittedly, but they're focusing on su marcher for lunch. the malaysia may be thailand is now dry again, encumbered a less so suddenly it now which should be dry and still isn't. this is also unusual . the rain is now going off shore has been sitting over china now. finally, we're getting winter coming back. the real cold as sitting right up here has flooded through this. the forecast is sunday, of course, september the drop down to where they should be. in fact, they below where they should be in shanghai. that would be a big shock for you. and after reach all, we're down towards hong kong, bringing winter back is been missing for a while. throughout the poor air quality still there in north. mindy persistent 14 places, particularly in new delhi, though it's not especially cold, you would expect that it happens on both saturday owns and on sunday, in the middle east, it's a story

a far more cloud than we used to with some rain. ah, ah, ah. ah. lou, the me

hello, i am the top stories on al jazeera. russia says is captured the eastern ukrainian town of sola, dar ukraine, denies that. russia controls the strategic town and says, severe fighting is ongoing. ukraine battles and this area of the donia region have been some of the heaviest of the war. and the leading climate active aggressive chambers has joined other activists in the german village of louis iraq to protest the expansion of coal mines. meanwhile, researchers claim x and mobo accurately predicted climate change decades ago, but downplayed its findings. a report in the journal science says x and mobile project at a temperature rises 0.2 degrees celsius each decade. the last in canada data from china has prompted fear of a further slow down in the global economy, despite a record annual trade surplus last year. chinese exports in december fell to their lowest since the beginning of the pandemic. in february 2020 demand has been hit as

china largest trading partners, the u. s. on europe or risk slipping into recession. 2023 growth forecasts for the world's 2nd largest economy have been cut from roughly 8 percent or around 5 percent dots after rapidly spreading outbreaks, following beijing decision to ditch at 0 covert policy last month. richard kimber? how's more from hong kong? yes, we are holding out hope for a recovery these days fruit sell it, mrs. gwen has few customers, but she's keeping her shop in beijing open and hoping the upcoming loot new year will bring some good fortune to us. taiyah lira, businesses lie restaurants are doing much better nowadays. there are more customers sees the guffman east cove igniting policies, but i am selling fruit and nuts and serves us. do not good. these things are not daily necessities. and since people don't have their money,

they are more careful with spending a widespread coated 19 outbreak in china in recent weeks has crippled consumer spending. millions of people have caught the virus or stayed at home in the hope of avoiding it. the government says everything is under control, but there is science. it's rapid dismantling of pandemic policies. last month is undermining the economic rebound. exports fell in december and century production shrank the most since long term locked downs, 8 months earlier. in some places, frustration is boiling over the factory and central china police confronted workers who are protesting against layoffs and low wages. i missed say that chinese cove at 900 challenges have global implications. as some of the world's biggest companies from automakers to smartphone makers facing disruptions to their chinese production lines, apple is reported to be accelerating plans to shift some of its operations to india

and vietnam supply chain analysts say that set to become a growing trend is sought out by you can predict, it's not going to be predictable. that's the, that's the problem that borders every one. and if you just try to draw a contrast between china and let's say, even in many countries, in se, asia, the policies are much more predictable. they are not ticking, they have not been taking such an extreme measure to, to control go. and their practice actually basically are more in ny, all the western companies. economists are forecasting a longer term turnaround. many predict that after coven 19 infections of peaked china could still achieve annual growth of almost 5 percent. but for businesses that rely on chinese spending and manufacturing a long term recovery may be too long to wait. richard kimber al jazeera in hong kong,

mattie became the china director of the economist intelligence corporate network and she has more on the challenges facing the countries economy in 2023. i don't think anyone anticipated that china would go and having probably the restrictive restrict his restrictions anywhere in the world to almost nothing. and just a matter of weeks and you've seen that kind of the authorities now trying to navigate, searching infections and pressures on health care system. so whereas we previously previously had supply chain disruptions because of china, it's kind of on off the economy, the threat of flash locked downs and 0. cobit, we now have concerns about supply chain disruption because of outbreak. and the inability of kind of supply chain of low normally. and so it does have implications . i think we're trying to competitiveness and you know, the recovery overall. we've also seen in 2020 to a lot of and then these and foreign investors hit the pause button on china because of the uncertainty of 2022. now, some of that certainty was global. the disruption of omi crime, highly transmissible. the kind of. ringback locations on kind of energy security

commodities prices because of the war and frank ukraine inflation brought about in part because of central bank policy related to the pandemic. some of those global challenges, but 0 cobit and some of the other more structural issues kick there on the property sector are you need to china. so i think the question, in terms of what needs for global economy more broadly, is whether investor confidence will be bullied enough to kind of see that f d i money flowing back in to cmc. it's kind of really be committing to the china market after a year where many been asking whether they need to think about risk resilience for their global business in a way that kind of manages around china, including china, to attract the market, to banded, of course. but you know how trying to fits in the bigger picture. germany's economy probably stagnated in the last quarter. 2022. that's according to the countries federal statistics office growth for the entire year was 1.9 percent suggesting europe largest economy may just avoid a recession. economists have revives fear,

as if in europe wide recession with major economies expected to return to growth after a slum in december. now, later on friday, japan's prime minister whom you can see that will make his 1st official visit to washington, d. c, a. u. s. president joe biden regional security is high on the agenda. in december, japan announced its largest military build up since world war 2, calling the threat from china, the biggest its ever faced. cocoa and washington have agreed to reorganize us forces on japan, southern oki know islands focusing on anti ship capabilities during a trip to london on thursday. from you can see the signed a deal to allow japan and the u. k. to deploy troops on each other's territory for an android giant is ever it is professor at university of adelaide and an expert on japanese foreign policy. he says there is a risk of an arms race in the pacific region because japan's leadership has

been talking about what's happened in what has happened ongoing and new grain that might possibly be did in the, in the free. and that me is called the high one place and china is action. but also i think japan was concerned about north korean messiahs launches. busy very often and that sentence japan quite a bit. it's not just china, i think it's not as well. so wide ranging security challenges as the japanese. busy just tell us the reality of this situation is that the good it could create an arms race, which i find is the call just to get to dilemma that one countries in the budget on defense can lead to another countries increase in defense spending.

that's what's happening, it's besides the, at this stage. but i think japan is interested in lot in seeking peace and japan option. i just see that miss, you have to have some kind of greater difference realty, including what she has said. and a strike after her as president gina boulevard is facing increased pressure to step down. at least 43 people, including a police officer, had been killed during the violent confrontations that since her predecessor pedro casea was deposed under, rested in december. marianna sanchez reports from lima. the demonstrators march on the streets of the capital carrying the food i did. and banners between proceed in will not being as a murderer. thousands people in the map and southern people blame her for the case

. most of the victims were young, poor indigenous gun down in confrontations with the army and police who used live ammunition to disperse crowds of anti government protesters. i am obsessed, angry traumatized, and shrugged. or what's happening here? i believe that people are going to force dinner. bellotta and congress out ah, the worst violence did when 2 decades has also prompted the governors of 3. so the regions are mostly, the protesters were killed to urge the precedent to resign. they say it's the only way to start resolving the spiraling unrest. 2 he said our thesis, the brother in a massacre, when i went to for he moody, was in power. she says the current government must go. yeah, i think i think that a government that has presided over so many that's is unsustainable. we are all in favor of democracy, but it does not make sense if they don't respect the lives of the people. but prime

minister and bad thought that allah says manuel at these in control and stepping down is out of the question. if you look at all that, i want to say very clearly, the president is not going to resign. that, that will not happen. nobody is leaving the presidency, was going to open as very dangerous door to anarchy, a new government. and that will not happen. see no, but again i improve knowing the south families of the 17 people killed by security forcing. julio, aka, earlier this week, hailed a funeral procession accompanied by thousands of mourners. dina, you killed my husband. why? i hate you, dina. proceed in 11 of these indian she grew up in equity, mac, one of the country's poorest regions. angry peruvians accused her of turning a deaf ear to their complaints. many brokers in the south of the country saving come here to lima. i love slater's because they say their voice says,

i'm not being heard. they're threatening to march to lima in the coming days to join rallies in the capital and see they will keep up their protests until the what b is out of office. medina sanchez and just kinda nina. cleanup and repairs are underway and brazilian, after supporters of the former president j. your boston aero, stormed government buildings on sunday. authority is launched an investigation into the lack of security during the attack. president lewis in osteo lula to silver said the riots are as likely hide inside hell. do you think my vocabulary many offices were collaborating with the rioters? many people in the military police were complicit. many people from the armed forces here inside were complicit. i am convinced of a door of the pen, an auto palace was open so that these people could enter because there is no door that has been broken down. that is to say someone facilitated the entry.
