well, we begin this hour in ukraine where the interior minister, senior officials and a child have been killed in a helicopter crash near a nursery, the ellicott to slammed into a building just northeast of the capital. keep killing 14 people. a crash then caused a large fire which damaged the entire side of the local nursery building. interior minister, dentist monist risky, who was appointed under the lensky in 2021. was killed along with his 1st deputy. and you have any yet in the ministries state, secretary official say it's too early to determine what caused the crash, which presents the landscape called a terrible tragedy. is ashrebra reports from bro. very the kindergarden in the town of bravery, nick heave, was still smouldering, as emergency team's work to the scene, carrying wreckage. some of it scattered across the playground. earlier a helicopter carrying 9 people had crashing the building, killing all on board,

including ukraine's interior minister. denis monasteries sky keeps mayor current is death, a huge loss, a young guy while we're able to, to go do it a lot of scenes for your brain and make it police reform. or in the way, thousands of children were in the kindergarten at the time as a crush, at least one was killed. others were injured. a regular school day turned into a tragedy. ukraine's presence said he was in unspeakable pain. this kindergarden is right in the center of a residential area and people who live around tyranny's apartment blocks have been coming out to see what has happened and most are in shock. alexander was nearby when he heard the crash. he filmed what happened next on his phone. well, normally robasho, i broached the kindergarten and so arizona was on fire. i went to check a building where i have friends, but when they came closer, a car exploded. i saw 2 dead bodies on the grass and i was scared to go closer

for young w shaheed bore, i thought it was a drone attack. we saw a large piece of metal on the ground. then we found a helicopter. when it's a nightmare, i'm speechless on the lease of opened his investigation into the crash. there's no word yet on why it happens. but it's clear that the death of the interior minister and other senior government figures is a huge loss for ukraine at a time when his fighting russian forces the death of so many others, including children, is another painful tragedy. for country that's already suffered so much. natasha butler, al jazeera bravery, ukraine, or timothy miller. novels as president of the cave school of economics on ukraine's former economic development minister. he personally knew the interior minister who died in the crash. he gave me his reaction to the news a shock. but then on top of that, we learned that the children died. the now there's one child confirmed dad and 12th

i and costs. but though, so you know, the strategy just keeps building up. it's, it's, it's devastating. this is not just the leadership of the top leadership, it's top 3 people in the ministry. it's the minister, the 1st deputy minister and the state secretary. this is the, the top 3 position, the minister of interior. so continue, it is there. but it will take some time for the minister to are just the government there. fish also saying that there is no preliminary full play, but they're not proven it out. i think everyone is trying to be careful and cautious, and the police and the b u, which is secured to service security bureau of ukraine. they investigate that. they are asking for the eye witnesses to come for whoever who has any information to come and testify. they are saying the investigation, 3 potential reasons, human error, technical error and sabotage. so, so, but that is not excluded,

but they're very clear that at this point of time, there is no evidence to point to that specific reason or quite a president on wednesday address leaders while they can all make form and diverse odem is. lensky led a silence for those killed in the helicopter crash, and made a plea for west and supplies of tanks and a defense units to be delivered faster, brought it in terror, or, or is reading the stream of the award. you bring all pers, these formula please can patch and then my main factor to make if you most organizational the, was our military one is asian allowing showing this is i know you ran with fast says those mom out piece ross has met miss al, intent this applies always from turned out to be another invasion. awesome tat.

well, the russian president vladimir putin says his country's military industrial complex as ramping up production, which will help make victory inevitable in ukraine. ill. so insisted his invasion of the country was intended to stop decades of conflict between moscow and keith. good, would you believe log we endured for a long time or try to reach an agreement for a long time. but as it turns out now, we were just duped and cheated us. that was, this is not the 1st time this has happened to us. however, we feel we have done our best to resolve the situation by peaceful means. it has now become clear that this was by definition impossible. it's just that the enemy was preparing to turn this whole conflict into an acute and hot phase. from i repeat, we had no choice but to do what we are doing now. and rushes for mister 30 lovegrove has been making some remarks. he compared the west approach to russia to add off hitler's final solution. rose said the us to dissemble the coalition of european

countries to solve the russian question, using ukraine as a proxy. and the same way the nazis is taught to eradicate europe's jews. he was speaking at a news conference in moscow's part of an annual review of russia's form policy said russia will achieve its objectives in ukraine despite what he called a hybrid war. waged by the west. only bid is over this issue. it'll just as napoleon, mobilized almost the whole of europe against the russian empire. as hitler mobilized, captured and listed the majority of the european countries and deployed them against the soviet union. it is the same now the united states of creation to coalition, which includes almost all europe, nations that a nato members and a u members as well as using ukraine. they are waging a war against our country with the same task, the final solution to the russian question. just as hitler wanted a final solution to the jewish question. and in some of the other developments. so

following this out, the secretary se anthony blinkin has hosted his turkish, the turkish foreign minister. matthew confir show blue and washington doctor expected a focus on the potential sale of $165.00 to jet. and of course refusal to greenlight, nate membership, sweden and finland. and she said, rushes invasion of ukraine was also going to be on the agenda article. he has won this now from washington. the meeting here at the state department between turkey is foreign minister and us secretary of state is a sign that things between the 2 countries. could possibly be improving the relationship has been strained for years. ever since turkey had decided to buy a russian made air defense system. us responded by basically chicken turkey out of the f 35 fighter jet program. that's the most sophisticated fighter jet that the u . s. producer, so now turkey says it wants to upgrade it's just f, 16 fighter jets fleet, and buy additional 40 jets total package, about $20000000000.00 for its part the united states once turkey had to drop its

objection to having finland in sweden, join nato. so are they any closer to a deal, as you know, there is a process for the transfer. this is a process that involves on risk of course, and we would define it on the particulars of that process until and unless there is any formal notification to congress, even if the 2 countries can reach a deal, there's still could be a problem, a very powerful senator senator robert minton does. he's the chair of the senate foreign relations committee. he says he's going to put a hold on it over concerns about your kids, human rights records. he wants to see prisoners released and activists released from prison. he can put a hold on it, but legally, the white house president joe biden can just push past his objections. still, that would be a very messy and very public fight within the democratic party. ah

. in afghanistan, at least 70 people reported to have died, you to extreme cold weather. the bill of in queueing up to collect bags of coal in cobble i. temperatures have dropped as low as minus 21 degrees in the last 2 weeks . emergency operation center says the rise in casualties is caused by widespread poverty and the unemployment. more than 70000 livestock of also died because of the cold war. the united nations deputy sector general is currently in afghanistan, holding talks with the taliban in the capital kabul to discuss women's rights and the ban on female aid workers. i mean hm. mm hm. it is the organizations most senior woman. first taliban official to meet her was acting foreign minister, a mere con, with turkey liberal hulu. charlie was referred to as the minister of foreign affairs or have to satisfy both you and my government and people. now you tell me

what has the international community done to satisfy our elders and our nation sanctions have been imposed on afghanistan. there are restrictions on the banking system. traders are facing problems and people clearly been transfer money to buy food for you as actually general aggregate terrace has been speaking to our diplomatic editor james bays and divorce about his deputies trip to cobble the un secretary general antonio terrace is among the dignitaries here in the swiss alps for the world economic forum in davos while he's here. his deputy is in afghanistan, amena mohammed, the deputy secretary general, the highest level international official to go to afghanistan since the taliban took over the 2nd general. explain to me her mission. but for me, that is something that really i feel very deeply which is what is happening to women and girls in afghanistan. what i said in the general assembly, the risk to move into a gym that up at that society. and my belief is that only that muslim world

can convince the taliban that these needs to change. and so, i mean, am i mad, sir? it's context, 1st of all with the organization of these, let me conference that as you know, issue the statement. that is very important because it's clearly says that what is happening, afghanistan is against the holy koran. and she visited before going to afghanistan, a number of his le couches with the objective to what belie support in the islamic world to make clear for the taliban that they need to reverse the present trends. and i think that these was an important initiatives. i hope that these initiative will produce the positive results. in any case, we will be ready to adopt the measures that sir will be considered necessary if for the initiative or does not produce the results we are expecting because you except that there is not that much leverage that the international community have. the

taliban don't seem to care much about international recognition. at this stage. you say that term. to come to the tale band with the i would say a western perspective would be total useless at the present moment. and that's the reason why. and i mean, our met is a muslim woman and her recognised muslim rulers, and to be able to mobilize the is, let me quote, to tell, clearly is of volleyball that what they are doing is nothing to the with islam is nothing to do with the hollywood on it has probably to the with some traditional values the, the afghan society. but that there are all reasons are in the, to the benefit of the forgotten people. to make sure that her women can work, that go sca go to school bus at the secondary level at the university level and that they can be active agents for the development of the country. recently the taliban band or female aid workers from international agencies from operating

inside afghanistan. for now female, you and workers can continue to operate. but the secretary general wouldn't be drawn on what would happen if they too were bound soon. we go to peru now, a capital as bracing itself for 2 days of anti government demonstrations. the present in it, but o r t a has urged people to protest peacefully, demonstrated been making their way into the capital from across the country they want. but what a to resign and her predecessor pedro castillo to be released from jail. he was impeached and arrested on charges of rebellion and conspiracy. in early december in the 5 weeks of demonstration since more than 40 people have been killed in confrontations with the security forces. marianna sanchez joins us live now from the central plaza. and so he was a, there many people now streaming into the cap at lima. can you give us a sense of the size, size, and scale of the protests in what people have planned for their time?

a lot of violence in the past few weeks in the provinces, but there's a lot of fear and there's local mayers and legislators who are asking for more security in the capital. we've also heard from the former resident of congress, this kind of word, this kind of expression saying, what do these people want in lima? a clear this regard of the free will of the people of the rights of the people to, to travel freely in the country and to protest freely in the country on. of course there's a lot of anger from these people, not only because there's, there's more than 50 people dead already. people with a language like this, people feel disenfranchised. they feel forgotten. they feel bullied and 5th with more than 50 people. dead. people are angry and that's what we expect to

listen to in the streets of the capital from today tomorrow, perhaps also friday and perhaps even more with people demanding the resignation of precedent. dina, a lot of the thanks very much from lima. liana sanchez, reporting to us on those protests youth outages. here i live from london most still to bring you on the program. somali is present, announces the 2nd phase of an operation against the on group. i'll show bob and the f. b, i arrest the russian founder of a crypto currency exchange. it says was catering to none crooks. ah well, finally happened for the 1st time in 11 months. sidney hit 30 degrees. everyone hears those details,

a political crisis for the new coalition, government stoking tensions over its plan to reform the judicial system and rain in the supreme court. who spot leon? we thought for me, this is the day of morning when the supreme court intervened in the legislation of a basic law. the court today caused all lines when it interfered with the law passed by a majority of 6 to 3 people, which expresses the decision of the majority. i didn't believe that the supreme court would intervene. and now it turns out that the court think it is a hit and ruler should remember its place in the fact that it has to decide which be rights based on the legislation thought. are you there real if area dairy is not fired israeli government as breaking the law? a government that does not obey the law is an illegal government. it can no longer demand that citizens obey the law dos. if our dairy is not fired, israel will be plunged into an unprecedented constitutional crisis and his will no longer be a democracy, nor will it be a state of law. somali prison has an chang. milo does announce the 2nd phase of an
