sort of non french car that's particularly wet at this time of the year and the potential for flash flooding is there maybe in ecuador or columbia. so a big risk, but it's not a risk to be ignored. and the breeze is picked up a little bit across the carry in the trade winds. so a few shaft may be in costa rica. it's rather looking better in nicaragua to be ours. but the curl off of warms up in southern states means it's been very warm recently. that's why its way art cos historic. and it probably is true to say that coast to coast winter storms taking place has been freezing rain in detroit. for example, the snow quite a lot of snow from toronto back towards the northern plains type are most obvious is what's happening down the pacific coast. and particular, california has been wind damage in california, so it's windy, it is going to be wet as a huge amount of snow, particularly of course, in the mountains. ah ah

ah, you're watching the news, our life or my headquarters and al hine during abigail are coming up in the next 60 minutes. security concerns in nigeria ahead of elections on saturday. we report from the southeast where an opposition candidate has been killed. israel launches air strikes on garza after rockets are fired from the territory and calls for demonstrations in the occupied westbank after 11 palestinians were killed in an is really raised. and nobliss i'm sam is a, than in total. here were incredible stories of compassionate. busy emerging from the rubble of us place. i'm devin ashwin sports as manchester united in bothell. i never better face off in the rightfully. and despite dominating that champions,

league tie blanche to city leipzig awesome with a wonderful tool with hello, we begin this news hour in nigeria where violence continues to mar the run up to the country's presidential election. on wednesday, a senate candidate was killed by gunman in the south eastern and who, who states nigeria is faced decades of security challenges caused by arm groups in the north on separatists in the south. so there are 18 candidates who are vying to become president, but 3 are believed to be the front runners to replace mohammed doable hurry. at least 93000000 people are registered to vote. a cash crisis shortage of fuel on corruption have dominated campaigns are correspond that how much asa isn't a new goose, she's joining us now. that is where the opposition candidate was killed. so

security is in the spotlight before the national election. her this is the area where the man was letting the senator was killed on wednesday night. his convoy was traveling along this road. when it got to this area, you see that was the that's so it's, that's the way god men open fire on his car, shooting and killing him and some of his party supporters. the police issued a statement and they blame the attack on armed groups. many young people who they say are trying to disrupt elections on saturday and trying to cause panic. you can see the street. yeah. yes. if you cost going up and down. but a lot the shops in the area are close to people say the nervous off the attack that happened away that they on shore. what is going to happen next? and the mood here is tense. when you speak to people, they'll say to you, for example, try not to leave the city, try not to travel by road, because you could get attacked or enough for ransom. they've been lingering

tensions here in the south east for many, many decades. a some people here feel about this area is not as developed as other parts of the country. young people particular say that they feel marginalized by the federal government in a boucher, some of them are agitating for change someone that even saying they want to one day from an independent state from nigeria. israel and concord by 4 to nigeria, a civil war known as by after all dental vision for between 19671970. that attempt at secession in the south east home to the able homeland, ethnic group killed more than 1000000 people. but when, when you finish the retire lieutenant colonel is worried about a new generation of fighters who say not enough people from this region have influence over nigeria, politics, security, and economy. i'm suggesting that the federal mitchell think deeply and see how they can bring us into the equation to assuage the sinners under

handles the people. the boys who are warren alleged items, badly, nigeria se, assume an increase in pre election violence, kidnappings, and continued agitation from some to split from the rest of the country. dozens of people have been killed this year in a row. you die boucher breast. a lot of people been or breast robber, i believe kitchener portal i recall, did you call for them to tele doc? liberty, a free book. these are midra instincts. a man what really breed them. so i don't want to be free presidential and parliamentary elections are on saturday. some polling stations will not be used because of insecurity. security force to say they will guarantee lower and order a need to tell you how where we do. it's not i'm telling you is ups. we'll do it on every one we have the liberty to aside their franchise insecurities. not

the only issue for voters. rising unemployment and economy, our major concerns this market is usually busy at this time of the day. a lot more people would be looking for good deals and bargains, but it's quiet because the shortages of cash banks often run out and that's effectively everyday life. in a geron president mohammed, uber, harry is serving his 2nd and last term. many nigerians hope waiver takes over from him, will quickly turn around the economy and resolve insane conflicts. had m a t os al jazeera integral nigeria. let's on bring in a bellamore mccarty. he was a senior fellow at the tony blair institute for global change. he's joining us by skype from the ugandan capital compiler. welcome to al jazeera. so what impact is this state of insecurity and going to have on the upcoming elections? now, thank you for having me. unfortunately in security is going to undermine the credibility to of the election under at different points of insecurity that could unfortunately

threat to the election a few days to the election. this incident is an unfortunate reminder that in security is a big issue in nigeria as 2020 the elections we have seen in security in putting the elections previous collections. but there was never a time when in security became so big and widespread. a c t's right now, right? so what you're saying is that there are a bigger threats this year than in previous years. why? why is that? that's because then about 4 major challenges, security challenges facing the election. this is one because of that this particular incident that happened with reported on there are 2. i mean, possible culprits. it is either committed by the unknown government, which is the military wing of the separate is indigenous people are back for or by, by political us our sins. now when we that we speak about insecurity during the

elections, there are 3 major. i'm groups in the country that are operating one in the south is where this happened when in the northwest and the north central, which is a criminal gang. no, can you call by needs that has an estimated 30000 men and have been killing people . they have to go buy 10000 people over the past 10 years and have a store. it runs on in billions of dollars. and then in this north, when eastern part of nigeria there is it you had to group a group came in to fight for islam. goldberg, i'm that has huge will buy that 5000 people. that groups one of each p less ideological p less is to disrupt nigeria, democracy and window that they do step up at tags when ever elections are to be held, including the last elections in 2019 and in 2011. they even succeeded in force and not just election to postpone by 6 weeks, because the security forces said they could not guarantee security. so insecurity,

so widespread 3 major, i'm groups and we have never seen this in the history of the country. how wireless was failings than insecurity, sir? why are there such failings and security? and also, do you think that any of the candidates offer new ways to tackle this issue? i'm in the prison. we're adding him to power on 3. a promise is 3 major promises. one of which was tackling in security and we could say he succeeded in that we can in boredom which was the group that was most active when he became president. unfortunately, why didn't i didn't security forces where our focus one book or had um, the bundle. great, it crisis exacerbated in the northwest and the north central and the northeast, then separate the south expense operators group also picked up arms in october of 2020. so the infidelity has been escalating and all the 3 major candidates have said in their manifest us that they are going to make in security,

one of the key priorities for their administration. and i think that's logical. what remains to be seen is how much resources are they going to come in to insecurity? because there are questions around lack of enough manpower on the side of nigerian security forces, but also lack of equipment and, and, and basic basic technology that should be used in tackling these crises. unfortunately, as i drove the 3 groups, i mentioned a fake news, conspiracy theories and false information on social media is likely to exacerbate things and live to commission our community tensions, especially because the 3 major candidate to come from 3 different ethnic groups and 3 different parts of nigeria, and we know that an unscrupulous politician sometimes explodes those kinds of food lines in order to ignite one community against the other unusual media is going to watch. we thank you so much for speaking to us from uganda. thank you.

israel has carried out airstrikes on the gaza strip that happened in the early hours of thursday morning is really forces targeted what they said were military sites. and this amateur video appears to show one of those missiles lending hours earlier. 6 rockets were fired from gaza into israel. the israeli army says it intercepted 5 of them. no casualties were reported. all this comes after him are said it would be responding to the killings if at least 11 palestinians during your raids by is really forces in nablus in the occupied westbank on wednesday. more than $100.00 people were injured in that range. you must say it has more from gaza to witness to in all the previous escalations. they're launching of rockets from the gods. a strip is that they were in response to any israeli attack that has happened in the west bag in east jerusalem. or even here in the gaza strip,

the policy you groups have made it clear in their statements issued i ever after every air strike and even after this last air strike by islamic jihad, they said that the people of the gaza and the policy in people have the right to defend themselves and what the resistance has done in responding is a very fair response to the aggression off the occupation towards the palestinian people. how must confirmed the same statement and added to weight that the general strike and protests that are taking place here in the gaza strip. and the launching of rockets comes as a confirmation that all palestinian people are one and that there is no division between the west bank and the gaza strip. and so they are watching and monitoring closely what the occupation will be doing in the west bank in becoming days. so

that's a view from garza less crossover to nobliss they occupied westbank that's run into abraham, is joining us from and where that raid took place. 24 hours ago, and they don't tell us what people there have been telling you because presumably palestinians are now burying their does most of those who were killed were buried on wednesday to other palestinians were buried one here in nablus, another in jeanine because they succumbed they succumb to their wounds. but let me tell you what i am right now. i'm in front of a morning house of the 11 people who are killed after these really rid in nablus. these are the pictures people are coming. hey we're, we're talking about 11 palestinians, 2 elderly, one child to me, armed men. if you can see from the pictures and you can see their faces,

the majority of people in their twenties, and this is a generation we've been seeing in the past a year or so. some of them taking up arms decided to confront these really are me. let's not forget that at large palestinians are not the armed, but there are still initiatives by palestinians. they are, they still go out to confront with israeli forces. if they have as little as a rock, we see young people, even those who are younger than their twenties go out and confront the israeli forces that wave palestinian cities almost on a nightly basis. and now we're seeing even a shift in that tactic we're seeing is ready for says come in in the middle of the day and a busy market, randomly shooting at palestinians. we're seeing more than $100.00 injuries. we've been speaking to palestinians here who say that they don't want to give them because the israeli policy of the terrans, as they tell us,

is not working with them. they want to work to know that the real reason why they're confronting israel and the real reason for the issue as the continued that kids love is ready, occupation, and their reaction to it and struggle again. okay, now that thank you so much for that update from nablus in the occupied westbank. fancy morehead on the altar 0 news are including this. the plight of pregnant women and turkey and syria. the recent earthquakes are raising concerns for those about to give birth. plus. i'm john home and the us mexico border where us authorities say that new policies and a new out of met a real decrease in the amount of people jumping the thing. coming up in sport, carlos alcaraz wins again, but we'll hear why novak joke of it does not consider him as his main rival. ah,

in. but 1st, the number of people killed and earthquakes, and turkey and syria has risen to nearly 50000. nearly 8000 after shocks have been felt since the 1st large tremors, 2 weeks ago. and in syria, nearly 6000 people have died and millions are homeless. many and both countries are concerned, there could be more quakes to come. so i mean, they done is joining us now from a donna and turkey. sammy, what are you seeing where you are? well, what we're saying is that effort now to try and deal with the many people who are displaced in today, they kick off the 1st phase of this contain the city's project, the aiming to get people into 15000 containers out of tense. they're also working on prefab homes and i can tell you the rain as we've been driving on the highways

over the last few days. we've seen sometimes columns of trucks carrying these prefab homes, heading to some of the hardest hit areas. so they're trying to do what they can to get people out of very unstable living conditions into something more settled and help like that just can't come soon enough. if you listen to what the united nations is saying, they're saying one and a half 1000000 people have become homeless in southern full kid because of the earthquakes. they say half a 1000000 new homes need to be rebuilt. and they say 200 up to 210000000 tons of rubble needs to be cleared up with just to give you a size of what we're talking about, that's enough to fill 1st piece where columbus is full of rubble. we're talking about rubble. we've been covering the rubble, we've been covering people being pulled out a life from the rubble. i caught up with one family that has a heart wrenching and heart warming story. an incredible story. they filmed

themselves under the rubble, assuming that we're going to die. they wanted to send a message to the world, a message, and a call for help for others outside of the rubble. the dollar munos job and track. under the rubble families pinned down by collapsed concrete and struggling to breathe. telephone if we die and this phone is found. there are 5 of us here. come on, rush under the rubble of this massive earthquake. when they decide to film what they believe are their final moments. but this is not the incredible story of their survival. this is the incredible story of their selflessness. whoever finds this phone, please help me fulfill my promises to people. please give them stuff a 2500 lyrics and you own the children from 5000 lire, please, and paid to them on my behalf. the family had collected donations and were worried,

the money in their apartment wouldn't make it to the needy. this is what's left of what the code family once called home. the powerful earthquake reduced an entire compound of towers to dust underneath the fat ardour and their 3 children endured 10 hours of agony. incredibly, they were rescued, alive, all except the youngest son belie july. his mother filmed him, playing with his brother before the quake in what would become his final moments for it concert. we heard the tremor in the early hours of the morning, the billing shook our into the children and my wife followed while i called out loud. and he looked at me, but before i could pull him out, the building collapsed and reviving an earthquake. and then surviving being tramped under the rubble of your own home. that's an unimaginable deal. but then walking above that rubble, that can be painful to we're looking for below things,

his clothes or books. i had a song here, he talked laugh and slept here. when you're walking on top of your path, each footstep forward takes you back with stop. so it's very difficult to be here, then it's bringing back bad memories out of the each scoop raises, hope each item uncovered pools. suddenly a mother is confronted with what she sought, but didn't desire her dead son's shirt. some food and he can fill the void of hunger and not the emptiness of losing a son. so you're in the middle of an earthquake. why were you thinking about charity for others? i mean, that's a beautiful thing, but most people would be worried about themselves. upgrade or shouldn't you? because the money was for often people trusted me with their money. the story of

the cooked family has spread into care prompting donations to the orphans partner was so worried about under the rubble. the could take comfort in knowing that through their actions, the old deal that ended belie of life has started a new chapter in the lives of others. incredible story that and a lot of needs for shelter for medical attention for food and so on. we can go now to, to raise the bow. she's live for us from hasa in her high. that's one of the hardest areas to theresa. you've been looking at medical needs that. what do they look like? well sammy, wherever you your call around this area, there is so much suffering. so much need are we're now here in half of this is sir located in the had a province as, as just one of the 11 province as affected by this earthquake. we're now in this 1030 where several people,

there's hundreds of them living here. their homes have either been destroyed or others are very much afraid of going back to their homes that have been damaged because of the aftershocks that are still ongoing. are you distributing aid and food and water and shell, to reserve priority for humanitarian organizations but tweeting the injured treating those who have fallen ill? because our for of this earthquake is also our priority rubble. as you were mentioning earlier today is, is a problem for many of the people we have spoken to respiratory problems. so we're right here. we're indonesia has also set up a field hospital there, tweeting lots of people here. we're going to talk now to dr. coroner reenter one. he has been in several natural disasters all around the world in napoleon, indonesia, so many other places. what can you tell us of what you've been seeing here right now? yeah, i've been seeing a lot of her victim cause after twixt him it's her after the 1st week of

the at quick them. and so the problem is become changing from the injury to the infection. so now her infection cases is becoming more and more and a coming to our medical care. one of the things we're seeing is rubble. everywhere we go destroyed homes, destroyed hospitals, destroyed scores. what impact does this rubble has on people's health around this area? yeah. oh, of course because of the rubble, so the government trying to clean it up and then the does is become the next problem because that that is a ferris are small and then they can be a inhaled by the people. so there must be some causes for the respite period. problem. one of the things we're seeing are people living in tens. it's very, very cold at night. you know, are you seeing people treating people of, you know, cold common colds that could get more complicated with time?

there's not enough health care. how could i think it's quite enough? but of course the climate is, you know, like if you see she, that there's the extreme climate in here minus to decrease as my and the down. so it become worsening. the problem that the people thank you very much. so as, as you were mentioning earlier, lots of rubble, some people estimate that over 200000000 tons of rubble will have to be removed from the parts of the country and what to do with it. it's also a big, big question then. and when you walk around, as i said before, there is need, there's lots of people that are desperate to go back and find a place to leave. lots of people that have been left vulnerable because they have lost their homes, they have lost their belongings. they do not have a way of making a living and humanitarian organizations right now. are also extremely concerned about women and young girls. we've been talking to many of them,

many pregnant women who do not know where they're going to end up delivering their babies. i mean, i left the pregnant and without a home she has been living in attend, in shall fall to the earthquake, destroyed her house, 2 weeks ago, a refuge from the war in syria. she has been living in tokyo for 5 years and i am looking for a place to rest and hopefully hospitals will be in a good condition. we hope the situation will get better. i'm pregnant and the situation is difficult for every one. the un says over 1500000 houses have been destroyed, and many of the victims are now living in camps like this one. health care is a major concern for humanitarian organizations, especially among women. thousands of them are expected to give birth. in the next month, and many of those around this area have been destroyed. and that's why it is a concern that they'll be able to do it in

a safe way. the united nations has deployed doctors and nurses intent camps to check on how women are coping with a disaster. jackie, they had her baby 2 weeks ago and is also living in a tent with we are scared and cannot go back to our home because it is all damaged. it's warm here and better for the baby. there are also providing women with medication and treatments. some i read risk of miscarriage. the u. n. is estimating at least $25000.00 births in the next month. unfortunately, many of the hard places were either distracted or they are not in or, or they are not operating at the moment. but what we are doing within our capacity, as you are nephew's job, supporting and working together with minister of how to ensure that section productive health services are continue. we need urgently to provide mobile

ethridge clinics and other support services. a for, to ensure women and girls access to these services. the turkish government has promised to fast track rebuilding. but until that happens, there are hundreds of thousands of vulnerable people who have been left without a home baby. so i'll just, cedar, shall we will far to, to you while the scenes of devastation and need, of course, getting attention from people in cities which are no strangers to earthquakes right around the world. including of course, is tom bull, how she matter, borrow ports now on how people are concerned. they're a race against time for these building inspectors, they're scanning for cracks or poor foundations. then they'll decide which buildings to demolish and which should be repaired. city officials warned a few days ago that $90000.00 buildings could collapse if an earthquake hits is

stumbled. when the mach looks ambient on a limb is there an earthquake and a symbol will affect 4 and a half 1000000 people. this is a top priority for us and should be seen as a national security matter. it has to be taken to the highest level mark levant act ash and bought his house 3 years ago. but he doesn't know whether the building is earthquake proof. levant is among a growing number of people who no longer feel safe in istanbul. delicate his thumb . look all mcclellan. i am not planning to live longer any stumble. eventually i will have to leave for another place. i am thinking about taking my family to a safer city by graham is stumbled, sits not far from the north, anatolia and fort seismologists of gin. my dear john fees, the worst asian site is very safe in terms of ground conditions and also the housings are relatively new in the asian site. and but if you go to

a european site only the safe place for the ground conditions are the northern part . as people in the south struggle to cope with the aftermath of this month's powerful earthquakes, people living in assembled fear the next one. for many years, seismologists have a warning of an earthquake, their predict good cause, why spread this rationally stumble? this is an over crowded city and a big tourist attraction. and many people are worried. the want to know whether that buildings and their city are strong enough to withstand the major quake and prevent loss of life. hash by his era is stumbled or it's not only the temperature and the weather. now that heating out has the whole off them off situation intensifies people. sense of confidence, people, sense of security in some places is drawing up as the river beds behind me going to

hand you back now to during in doha, tommy, thank you so much for that reporting from donna in turkey and move on to other news and tell you about the death toll them and a gas car from tropical cycle. and freddy, because it's now risen to at least for the store made landfall in the southeast. late on tuesday, we wind speeds up to 180 kilometers per hour. more than 11000 people have been displaced. gotten drunk, something. yesterday we were afraid of rising waters and winds that can destroy everything like electricity. that is what traumatized me the most, so it's better to prepare for this danger. that's why i moved. we used to be worried about wind gusts, but now it's more the rising. the walsh of that scares us because our house is at the bottom of a bridge we're afraid of flooding. a winter storm has caused 1200 flight cancellations. across the united states, interstate roads from arizona to wyoming have been shot with blizzard warning.

stretching to southern california, all schools have been close in the dakotas. minnesota and wisconsin forecasters say the bad weather will continue for several days. while it's time for a check on the weather. now here is rob with more on the situation in the us, north american weather that was really quite wet, quite contrasty, for example. although you got a lot of cloud all running across the middle of the states in the bottom right hand corner only states are seeing the sunshine. and surprisingly warm weather from florida to texas to north carolina attempt has been around the 30 mot, which are the equals or exceeds previous high temperature, her reckless of february. but you may know from neutral horserace, the store in the us is of a coast to coast winter storm. so for example, that's the picture in utah, we've had freezing rain in detroit bringing power lines down and windy weather's been the case all over the place. these pictures just from san diego in southern

california, and it'll be this side the pacific side that sees is continuing when to weather elsewhere it'll blow through. but here, if anything it gets worse about how we get to the end of friday, we'll be seeing heavy rain in the lower lands, all would answer california mountain blizzards and to get to meet and a half and point 7 meters of snow, additional snow and of course you seen the winds already up and they could well be damaging winds. they brought trees down all ready. now this laughs into saturday and spreads down to north mexico as a warning of cold weather. but after that, it will improve still a heads on the al jazeera and who's our why some thank vegetable rationing and you case supermarkets is just the tip of the iceberg. and astronomical surprise, science has got a glimpse of huge galaxies that dating back to the cosmic dawn and formula one cars and motor g. p bikes take to the streets of cats, hard as mortars, sport fans come out in 4th,

in sports with examining the impact of today's headlines. one is the, one of our ensuring that lisa can continue, and that count on that and setting the agenda for tomorrow's discussions. i don't believe that, i think in the faith that is willing to kill international filmmakers and world class journalists, bring programs to inform and inspire you. we need to have a media ensuring that voices are heard on al jazeera, in depth analysis of the days headlines from around the world to try right extremely there is real and need to be tackled as soon as possible informed opinions. why is the thing and opposition concerned about this rather small between turkey anthea, there's been really room to explain, you know,

30 this is an appointment frank assessments, you know, there was a joke about the interim government that it's not in for him, nor does it got inside story on al jazeera, waterloo ah, hello again, the top stories on the al jazeera news, our a senate candidate in nigeria has been killed by gunman ahead of saturday's election barre oh, ye boat choke, who was attacked on wednesday in south eastern and new state. he was returning from a campaign rally for his opposition labor party. israel has carried out airstrikes on the gaza strip. they is really army says it struck what a weapons, a manufacturer,

weapons manufacturing site. i'm the military compounds run by hamas. israel says those strikes were launched in response to 6 rockets fired into is really territory from the gaza strip. is really army says it intercepted 5 of them. china says i will propose a plan to end the war immune crane. beijing is expected to unveil that initiative on friday, which marks one years since russia began its invasion of ukraine. a sum of bon jovi has more from moscow. well, it is well kept secret because john has been talking about this piece plan for the last few days, but it hasn't unveiled it as yet. this morning we've heard from the russian foreign ministry that it was not part of the discussions between china's top ship them out and the russian foreign minister. but it does not rule out that better. this plan has been given to both capitalists, moscow, and key for them to have

a reaction ready before china and build that. but this is where china wants to be a, an arbiter which sits in the middle and tries to negotiate between these 2 sides, which remain far apart, but it comes to how to end the war. the un secretary general has again denounced thrushes invasion of ukraine out of the 1st anniversary of the conflict on toni with tara said russia had violated the un shorter and international law. the one year mark of russia's evasion of ukraine stands as a green milestone for the people of ukraine and for the international community. that the invasion is an affront to our collective consciousness. it is a violation of united nations charter and international law. is having that emetic humanitarian and human rights consequences. and the impact is being felt far beyond the ukraine. or since the war started,

prophets of arms companies have increased significantly. but if the fossil reports from brussels is proving to be a challenge for nato and europe to ramp up in industry that was scaled back after the cold war. 50 left tanks, gathering dust in the warehouse near brussels, sold by the belgian army to a private company at a time when a new war in europe team on thinkable. now, the owner wants to sell them back for nearly 10 times the original price. maybe you can say i'm a vision of this, so they know that other countries, they're still countries in the world to have this liquid one. thanks. so dental wis, possibility either to sell spare parts to sell additional things. while ukraine is fighting off a new russian offensive, his thanks won't leave the warehouse anytime soon. a promise by western countries to send 2 battalions of lap or 2 tanks to materialize. the madeline sold all its lap or 2 tanks years ago. we have bought new ones, so the,

the previous version of the year 2 in larger quantities, they have to be refurbished, have to be better already, but they will be provided to your grade and not ready before it is offensive. but we are in the middle of the offensive and it's going to go on. so everybody including industry is doing what they can speed it up. the message here at nato is so produce more weapons and ammunition as soon as possible. meaning that an industry that was scaled back off of the cold war should rapidly be brought back into full action. the alliance, a 2nd free general has called it a battle of logistics. and the clear winner will be the arms industry needs to care less, study the arm straight for 20 years, once again to rushing into more production of weapon systems without the long term security plan. a lot of armed forces in europe are actually what we would call bonzai armies. they looked like real armies. they have the feel of an army, but in reality, they're not able to defend the country itself. so i think it would be much better if you would actually invest more in cooperation between european states with

there were reco numbers of apprehension of migrants on this, the southern border. and they were under a lot of pressure, especially from republicans to get those numbers down. the new strategy has other elements to rewards, as well as penalties. one is the humanitarian pro program for applicants from haiti, cuba, nicaragua, venezuela, to stay in the u. s. for 2 years as long as they have sponsors there. the u. s. is place to take up to $30000.00 people a month. the new app has also been rolled out for those already at the buddha. allow them to book appointments with us officials, rather than waiting queues or unless controlled by non governmental agencies. but those we talked to in the same shelter as unhealthy, having problems using the up especially getting the confirmation email. they said needed for the appointment. but if you look up the, i lost my appointment on the 1st february because the confirmation email didn't arrive. all it says is system error, system error, but pass to l. but rebecca,

the u. case food supplies, but also on the u. k is hard pressed farmers who are already paying hundreds of millions, millions of pounds extra for fertilizers and for energy. and because of the price of gas and who are also seeing themselves exposed to the impacts of climate change light, last year's drought, and the u. k. face is one of a particular issue. most of the countries fruit and vegetables come from the european union. and britons exit from the block has meant extra costs and bureaucracy has added to the strain, especially the perishable goods. the solution food producing organizations say, is the government to give farmers more support, such as replacing high carbon fertilizers with low carbon alternatives. and focusing on ways to protect farms against the extremes, and whether that becomes the new, normal sony diagonal, al jazeera london still had only al jazeera news, our panama book their spot at the women's world cup. the 1st time that's coming up

mature as our own milky way. but that's a surprise, because they're being seen shortly after the dawn of the universe. and they should be much smaller and simpler. the 1st galaxies began in pools of a mysterious substance, dark matter. we know how these dark medical form. we know that normal matter should follow them. we know the ratio which dark matter in normal matters as part of our standard model. and the galaxy seem to have too much normal matter too much matter or just stuff. means the earliest stars in our universe were heavier than expected, and developed sooner than expected, possibly, containing some elements essential for life. webb's ability to see new frequencies of light open up new areas of investigation. now the findings will challenge models of how stars were born. i expect when the dust settles when we get all of our divisions, when we get more, when we get better data, we will, we will probably find that cause knology is the same. and there's something else

going on in the systems that we don't understand from combination of stars forming really early galaxies, forming way better than the expected. and maybe some exotic physics that aren't currently in our current models, even if each of the galaxy like our own, all we can see are 20 or 30 pixels in the darkness just enough to imagine worlds. it's sort of a crazy thing. column. baker, algebra. it's time for the sports in st. jana. thank you to rain. let's begin with the champions league and manchester city were made to pay for not taking their chances against leipzig. the 1st leg finished all square in germany, while into milan. took control of that tie against 40 david steaks, frowns at the action they deserve that. we saw some touchy defending in the champions league on tuesday. a wednesday was no different life. 6 loose pass gifted the opening goal to re add more as to put manchester city ahead in germany. but despite dominating possession city miss several chances to pull further clay with

earning holland having an unusually quiet night. it cost them eventually when you're sco gaudio headed in for like sig who had been on a full game winning streak in the competition. 21 year old defender leaping, highest to level things up. oh, ill caught you. and again, would have restored city's lead, straight to wait, had it not been for the quick reflexes of leipzig keeper, yamil plastic it finished 11 and afterward city boss pet. guardiola did his best to cheer up his players ahead of the 2nd legged manchester as they continued their quest to win the trophy for the 1st time, there was head zone. so when you had done that to his up, it was really good for him. you play people the like, it doesn't matter. it wednesdays. other game into milan beat ports i won ill at the sunset road. substitute romilly le caca getting the only go with 4 minutes left after port i had been reduced to 10 men. finally,

i turned off the italians with the advantage heading into the 2nd leg in portugal in 3 weeks time. they be stokes, out his era. if the 1st leg was anything to go by, we could be in for quite a night at old trafford, later as manchester united to take on boss alona for a place in the last 16 of the rope. plague besides played out a thrilling a 2 will draw the new cut last week, leaving this tie wide open. united at one this competition in 2017, that's the last time they lifted a trophy. although they could get her hands on some sofa on sunday when they pay newcastle in the league cup final. every day we won't give a bit of an official foes house and we are sure when you fish such big teams as barcelona, you have to play your best. oh, as you don't have insurance. and so we want to go through to come to the next round . so yeah, really we have to get the best performance from this you since i believe in it. i'm looking forward to it offline. okay. it should. chevy says united to one of the
