children who were stranded in the amazon rain forest for 40 days after surviving a plane crash and burning out of control, we report from one of the worst wildfire hit regions in canada, and far as small with this forest. the biggest matching european club football is just a few hours away. fans are gathering and assemble. we're matched or city will be taking on entering the land and the final, the is just passed. 15 gmc, that's 6 pm in the ukrainian capital keys, were president of all of the mirrors. the lensky has confirmed a counter offensive is now underway. however, he didn't provide further details. the operation had been expected to start soon. ukrainian forces have made gains in the east. near the devastated city of south moved. they are aiming to ins circle that city,
6:02 pm
which russian forces seized back in may. on friday, russian president vladimir putin said that you cranes counter offensive, had begun, and was already failing. this was the when skis, response to that $2.00 show, which is cut off from us. it's interesting that boots and should be talking about our counter offensive. yeah. it's important that russia should feel all ways that it's not a long way ahead of us. the counter offensive and defensive actions all taking place and ukraine will not speak about which phase the in or so i would not trust the various telegram channels about it all in particular uprooted in a case study. so we're following the story from both sides of the conflict. daniel hawkins in the russian capital must go 1st though we're going to start withdrawal. stratford from the front lines and crown the tourist in easton ukraine. charles, you spend time with the ukrainian military today. what can you share with us? yes, that's right. we went to the town of the lodge,
6:03 pm
a village of chests. if y'all with a ukrainian units um on lots hillary unit, not trust if you all are, is important because it is basically is the 1st law of settlement that you come to before. the move is about 10 to 15 kilometers. bit further, maybe 2 bucks moved from there, but it is key because it is one of the big lines of both defense. and now according to president zalinski off fence as part of this counter offensive. what we was shows, well, let's say all to, to re positions that were firing on russian positions to the south of box moved in more ministry atlas soft printing operations basically probing areas for weaknesses in russian defense people pushing forward. they were telling us the ukrainians that they were making gradual gains, both to the south of both fluids and to the know about fluid as well coming, coming in from the know the area we believe to be around the town of soley dollar.
6:04 pm
and of course, followed is completely controlled, going to the russians by russian falls use the ukrainians dispute they some day on now saying that they are pushing from the south to around one kilometer a day into those russian positions. and they told us that that could be anything from 5 maid just one day. so you know, 500 meters another day they find it very difficult indeed. to do that. we heard certainly from the positions that we were at, we had virtually no incoming, nothing that was clearly discernible as incoming from the russian side, but a lot of outgoing showing by the ukrainians. as i say in these softening operation, looking for weak spots in rushes defense, she's the now whether this represents a large scale push, if you like in this counter offensive, that is highly unlikely. i think a lot of eyes are open at area south of the town, the city of this operation of that front line,
6:05 pm
the around the town of the or 40 cave where we saw this incident yesterday, which now increasingly the ukrainian seemed to be acknowledging suddenly the rush and the saying that they took a number of liquid to tank sound these mountain tanks that have been given by ukraine's allies, as well as a load of infantry fighting vehicles to that's seemingly where there was a big push happening. but it is still too early to say whether either of these friends represent something large scale. i think it's more likely that what we're seeing at the moment other beginnings of these pushes, testing those defensive lines before something more large scale begins. charles, us try and talk a little bit bigger picture, and i know that ukraine is to be very tight lipped about this counter offensive. but are you able to discern what their military objectives are? it is very difficult to say,
6:06 pm
of course, according to the official line from presidents zalinski is that they will not stop until they have reclaimed and it was liberated all the territory that brochure is occupied since 2014. now that is a vast area and of course it would include the cry, me in peninsula i think it's more likely that's a coding certainly to military analysts and western intelligence agencies, for example. but share information. they say that it's more likely that what do you cry names or write me to do is kohl's as much of a, in a words catastrophic failure amongst motion full sees. you know, what's a push president puts in the russian lead into some sort of negotiated settlement or a situation where he is forced to negotiate. that is not a 0 sum game by any stretch according to to unless they saying that look, if the ukrainians can win enough on the battlefield, then that may eventually involve president pershing having to basically pushed back
6:07 pm
another counter offensive by the russians. if that involved a large scale, conscription effort, trying to get more russian men on the battlefield, many at least would say that that could potentially cause big instability and problems for polluting politically inside russia. but of course, we are a long, long way for interesting form and a signal like that happening at the moment. i think most of this will say the concentration of this counter offensive, as i say, seems to be potentially south of is operation. and the reason is just because they're trying to cut that land bridge that we so often talk about that land bridge from the air is that a russian occupied in don't that don't, that's can look guns down to the crime me and peninsula, if they can cut that land bridge than that by satellites, crimea, everything apart from that coach bridge and it would not be in cuz livable according to sell mine lists as if eventually the ukrainians stopped when the room
6:08 pm
range trying to smash that bridge as well. it's that kind of pressure the coding to out unless the ukrainians are trying to put on russia. it's not going to involve, according to most ukraine taking back and move the territory that is last to russia since 2014 and charles, thank you very much. that's all very helpful. i know you and your team are going to go and put together a report with what you've filmed today. we look forward to watching that. let me bring in now a journalist, daniel hawkins in moscow. what, daniel, what's russia thing about this country offensive so far? of the what it's leah from the russian embodies danny wasting release just hours ago. there is a major intensification and fighting, not only on the southern supporters you front, but also on the desk front. russian officials are cleaning major lawsuits. the exciting when it treat around 300 minutes, few personnel as well as close to dozen times close to 2000 all the infantry fighting and all with vehicles. many of those have been alleged to be level,
6:09 pm
the tanks and bradley fighting vehicles. and those claims appeared to be confirmed, but drone photos produced by, by the russian id. and we brought because which suddenly appeared to show the columns of this west and supplied that weapon we binding on the battlefield. now that happened in contradictory claims about what's going on in bus. moved the exciting side saying they succeeded in pushing buffering forces away from the flanks, all that in by whole city, the russian side saying those offensive have failed and the attacks up being repelled. interesting. one correspondence here in russia rules are commented on the fact to clinging forces using that more advanced equipment to the advantage that includes stuff like at mike lloyd. so 6, so my name is in google's, which enabled them to find these bottles. launched these attacks pushing much 20 volt 7. and that's something apparently which the russian army lacks something by the polluted body of food and commented on yesterday, saying these issues do exist, but that being rectified, those issues are being addressed. the russians do have an arrows walters,
6:10 pm
the using that domain is in the sky solution strikes that they say on come on, the same goes on munitions supply line. so we just fix lines, way behind the front lines targeting these, you're putting the photos into kind of give a counseling ends of photos you trying to disrupt this offensive before it's really taking the full and taking hold. funny. i think it's clear and then coming hours and days is going to be an intensification emmys. buffalos, especially on the southern front. as you come in, forces look to probe the russian defense isn't fun, weeks pulse. and the russian army looks to begin and keep those positions. they've been in french thing over the past week, some months before, but tennessee, the old senior counter offensive over the road. and i think we'll get more information on that as it comes in over the coming hours and days. daniel hawkins reporting from moscow, thank you very much. i to the 24 hour ceasefire is now in place. in sedan, the army and paramilitary rapid support forces have been fighting since mid april. this is the 8th troops that has come into effect. the united states and saudi
6:11 pm
arabia broke the deal. it is meant to allow the safe delivery of humanitarian aid, but previous these fires have failed to stop much of the fighting. as go to him, morgan, she's in, i'm durham, and across the nile from car to him. hippa is this cease fire holding? well, it's been 11 hours now and many people who we spoke to in various parts of the capital say this is the quietest day since the fighting started on april 15th. now people say that they were not able to hear heavy artillery, that they were sporadic on the fire in parts of the capital, but they say it does not seem to be fighting between the rapids support forces. and this is in these army, and they say it's most likely individuals firing guns. so the ceasefire up until this point seems to be holding. now let's look at how it came about was mediated by the united states and saudi arabia, not the 1st. there was another seized part that was mediated set to last for 7 days
6:12 pm
and then extended for another 5 days. now in their statements, before the seas part came into effect, both said that they were frustrated that previous these fires were violated by both sides, the sudanese army. i'm the parent military report forces the power permanent 3 rapids support forces. but it is a lot at stake when it comes to this current 24 hour ceasefire. and that's the talk intent that they made it very clear. the mediators made it very clear that should the 2 sides violate this current ceasefire, then talks into the will be suspended, and there will be no initiative by both this business idea review and to the united states to try to end this conflict between the rapids support forces and the food in these army i have as i listen to you, i'm also looking screen left, right, bottom left on our screen and i see people walking in the road. um, does that mean? is it fair to assume people are taking advantage of the ceasefire? yes indeed, now many people who we spoke to say that from the early hours of of,
6:13 pm
of this saturday morning they were looking to see how things were laid out. and they felt assured when they said that there was no fighting between the rapids support forces and the cities army unlike the previous times. now some people chose best that often took this opportunity to try to leave the capital out of to those who we spoke to on the southern parts of the capital, say that they have been looking for transportations to take them to just see that in the central parts of the country or to other states for them because it's relatively safer over there. now there's the issue of human inherent assistance. that's one of the main goals of this 24 hour ceasefire. now we spoke to some 8 organizations. they said that they had already delivered a here to the capital cartoon, and they're taking this 24 hour opportunity to try to deliver them to citizens here in the capital have to. but then again, how to, to is a population of about 7000000. postwar. since it was thought of many of them flags, but there are millions who are still remaining behind. people say that they've been without food without once
6:14 pm
a since the beginning of the conflict. shops are closed in many parts off out of the capital one card too. so people are waiting for the humanitarian aid and so far those for we spoke to see that's very little have reach them and others say they've not symbols, humanitarian aid being delivered to them. have a morgan reporting live from on government. thank you very much. and my match, it is a political analyst who covers sedan. he says he's not optimistic that his extension will allow for humanitarian access is i think both sides are incentive wise to keep on fighting. the army needs more leverage before can really commit to talks. and i think the very the principles of the declaration of the general agreement, which does under pen every renewed cease fire, go against the tactics of both sides in this comfortable for the recept, particularly of their strategic utilities to imbedding themselves in residential
6:15 pm
areas. taking over a huge, important infrastructure like water pipelines of water stations, cutting off water to, to so many residents in the city, as well as you know, for instance, turning hospitals and military outposts to ask them to, to withdraw from that puts them into the oven and and, and puts them in their minds from their perception of a significant disadvantage. their, their tactic is to put civilians in danger in order to frame so as an it's going to force the army as indiscriminate and the army is going for the bait. the army has shown that it is not interested in trying to limit civilian casualties. it fires from the sky when on residential areas, and it kills lots of people, you know, as a result of the arts of strategy, but they're not taking very many preventative measures. so we see that the agreement that needs to be forced both, so that would require both sides to change their military tactics. neither side as
6:16 pm
incentivized to do that. 8 organizations say that and humanitarian catastrophe is unfolding. and the capital of sedans west are for region medicine, food and water supplies in elgin may not have run out, is concerned that the funding could spread to other parts of the area including neighboring chad is a mr. avi has more from andre in eastern chad. what we are seeing is a constant stream of trickles, but a constant trickle of people that are trying to get out. they say they are risking their lives just to try to escape the war. they face beatings, they're having to pay bribes. that makes shift. checkpoints being set up by malicious, but those that do make it across the board or in, audrey end up in places like this. everyone at this makes shift can an impromptu set up here outside, just on the outskirts of the town of andre. this is a camp where everyone here is from all janina. there's probably a 100150 people here. there's 2 or 3 more. can select this around the town. those
6:17 pm
that live here say there's upwards of 2000 people living like this around andre simply sh here waiting for help. we've spoken to people who say they've been separated from their families, that they're going around the different and campus trying to find the people that they were separated from when bullet started flying as they were fling, they ran from hales of gunfire. is how people here describe what happened. we've seen people with injuries with wounds. we've seen children exhibiting signs of serious mail nutrition. and we have heard is that they are still waiting for help. one woman spoke who spoke to a said that her children hadn't eaten in 3 days. so the situation here is incredibly serious. it is incredibly dire, and it needs to be addressed as soon as possible. there's a lot more coming up on this news hour, including an attack on the beach side hotel in the somali capital, which kills at least 9 people will have an update on that. and we report from the
6:18 pm
vicinity of an active volcano in the philippines. it's ortiz warning, it could erupt at any time. also in sports or trouble for miami in the n b a finals are, is here with that story related selling the iraq has released $2700000000.00 as in frozen assets to iran. that is, according to the head of the countries joint chamber of commerce. it follows a number of meetings between us arranging and amani officials. houses here as dorothy jabari is into, around for us store. so the range of money frozen in iraq by the united states. there's this triangle at work, help us understand it. well, it's a very complicated triangles, and it all began in 2018 when the united states, less than nuclear deal. uh. and then 6 months later, in the november of 2018,
6:19 pm
impose very top sanctions on your ons, oil and banking sector. and this is what's happening now. iraq is heavily reliance on rainy and electricity and gas. and they were still purchasing electricity and gas, but they were not able to pay around for it as a result of the us section. so they've been holding onto this money for the past 4 years or so. and now they owe around about $11000000000.00. and now according to the iraqi foreign ministry, the number of meetings he's had with his us counterpart to come out with a solution for the time being about 3000000000 of that funds will be released. but the random government will not see any cash. what they're going to do is allow around to make a purchases of certain goods that they're in need of that also to pay the government and saudi arabia for the pilgrims. that will be traveling to the annual hodge pilgrimage that they make. now, the reading government will still get the money from the ordinary around you and making the pilgrimage, but they will not give that money to the saudi government. instead,
6:20 pm
the saudi government will go to back that to get what they're owed. this is a work around they found to the sanctions and the americans have agreed to go along with this for the time being. we'll have to wait and see how this works. and if this works, we'll expect to see it as being put into place for the rest of the money that iran has frozen in back that door. say it's impossible not to notice that iran has been at the center of a lot of news recently, releasing prisoners, building bridges with its arch enemy, saudi arabia being involved in directly in human peace talks. should we be connecting all these dots? certainly, all these dots are connected, you cannot have one without the other. there is certainly a move, a push by the right. you see government to re engage in terms of its foreign policy . and we've seen that also from the foreign minister, the waiting for a minister of jose number up the law here on who's been making the rounds globally
6:21 pm
to try and bridge the differences between iran and certain countries. he was in latin america recently, and we also saw the whole town of amman into around about 2 weeks ago. all these efforts to try and escalate the tensions as a result of that nuclear deal following the part the negotiations have stalled. there is a sense that it is better to engage with iran and also iran is really looking at trying to get that bridge. the gaps has with regional powers, including salary, ravia and egypt. and this is certainly seen as an attempt by the current government to try and re engage in their relationship with regional powers as a result of what they believe to be the last of us influence in the middle east. something iran has been adamant about for years saying that their presence in the region is a, the stabilizing factor. so for the government here, it's important to have strong ties with the regional powers. and this move now as
6:22 pm
a result of the negotiations ongoing is going to be seen as a step towards at building bridges with those countries that have now over $50000000000.00 of frozen reading in funds as a result of us section. so if this actually works in practice, we're expected to be put in place for other countries as well. all right, that's really interesting. in fact, we're going to have a little explain or about this dorset jabari reporting from there on where. incidentally, there was a beautiful sunset behind your door so, so this explain or iran has billions of dollars frozen and accounts around the world in iraq as a total of about $11000000000.00 as dorothy was telling us from its electricity and natural gas sales and sales career, there's about $7000000000.00 in frozen the rain in money there on says that sol received its oil but never paid out of fear of violating americans sanctions. iran has been engaged in indirect talks with the us through oman. they have it's money released the deal with also involved the prisoner swap and the release of americans
6:23 pm
jailed in iran. so all the via is, is the around project director of the international crisis group. he's in washington dc. i li, i want to pick up where i just left it with the door. so this feels like it's part of a much, much bigger picture. what is that bigger picture? well that bigger picture, and my view is the iranian system having survive, months of protest in iran is trying to uh, signal to the world that is here to stay a horse. it's dealing with its address, the reason that the use of the even the adversaries believe that the regime is here to stay. and of course, it also needs some common stability in order to deal with a very bad economic situation that iran has been suffering under as a result of sanctions and corruption and mismanagement endorsed the explain that this money was unfrozen, but in a very roundabout way. because iran doesn't actually get to cash talk to us about that little bit store. so under us sanctions of humanitarian fate is
6:24 pm
exempt from sanctions any wrong for taking to be able to access its frozen assets abroad in order to buy food and medicine and medical equipment. it cannot do so because most banks over comply with sanctions out of fear of getting penalized by the united states. so is often requires direct us intervention in order to reassure these banks that they cannot engage us in this kind of transaction without being punished afterwards. and i take iranian statements, honestly with a, with a grain of salt, because there has been multiple announcements from iran that their assets in south korea has been on frozen. that hasn't happened yet. we know that's part of the detainee deal. and the assets in iraq as well. i would not believe it until i would see a clear statements from us officials that indeed they have on frozen those assets. but of course, like all exaggerations,
6:25 pm
this is rooted in reality because there are discussions between you run into us over the tiny deal possible at or uh, the escalation attempts. and some of this money will certainly be involved in that kind of an understanding. i think it's, as you say, this is a step towards the detainee deal. is this also? could this be a step towards perhaps a nuclear deal between the us and iran? says, i don't need a nuclear deal is possible between now and the us presidential elections in november of next year. it is just too costly for dividing administration to offer on um, significant sanctions really. um, but what is possible is some kind of an understanding that both sides basically keep the situation from bullying over putting a lid on it until november 2024. and in the meantime, they can negotiate about what kind of deal could come next. but at this stage,
6:26 pm
i think it's very unlikely that the, the political atmosphere in washington just is not at all from the american perspective. does what just happened? the, the on freezing of iranian assets in exchange for limiting uh, a range and uh, enrichment. does that mean that us sanctions, to some extent work? well, yes or no. uh, they certainly provide the united states with leverage. they certainly harm the running economy. but if you met, if the metric of concern is it runs a nuclear advancements who runs a role in the region, it runs a policies at home on all of those funds as a result of sanctions runs, behavior has worked since it's closer than ever to you know to the verge of nature weapons, it has become more aggressive in the region under maximum pressure and more repressive at home. so yes, it is leverage and could be used in some kind of,
6:27 pm
of the skin to 3 understanding. but overall, both sides are, are losing as a result of this 0 sum game that they're engaged in antivirus. thank you very much for joining us today. my pleasure. i miss ortiz in columbia sound for children who spent more than 40 days stranded in the amazon rain forest. the eldest sibling is 13 the youngest, just one year old. they're from the we thought the indigenous group and they went missing after their plane crashed early last month. the accident happened in the town of solano in the southern coquette. the province. rescuers found them about 8 kilometers west of the wreckage site was sent around p. a t, as in bob with that, sandra. everyone obviously is wondering how for children survived alone in the jungle for that long. what have you been able to find out? yes, absolutely, yes, they're all at that. first of all, i can say that this is an extraordinary achievement,
6:28 pm
so the fact that they have been able to survive. well, one of the things that we heard from one of the relatives of the children is that they've been a thing of studying at or not. i feel are able here to see it with the help. uh yeah, i see it camera, man, this is the essentially it's up to you. okay. that be okay. aside. sure. this is something that they had on the plane and that that helps them survive that throughout the 1st days after the crash, it was just him that this from the welfare institute here and, but with that so that i could show you that also we know that the army has sent hundreds of a survival kits from eli comp there's day and in the out in that the children found some of those. and then finally, i think what's really key here is the fact that they come from a traditional indigenous count community. they live in the jungle. they're used to
6:29 pm
the jungle at their, their family members, their grand parents taught them how to, to take advantage of what the jungle can offer in terms of suit. see the fruits of, of, uh, and the most efficient uh, in the rivers and so for, for itself all as this man, it's this incredible, it's really incredible achievements to happen. and as a president, gustavo beth rowe said yesterday when they were found that they are an example of an extraordinary example of survival. he said that will go down in history. how are the children doing now? do we know about their health? to yes, look at where we are right in from here. uh the military hospital and both the uh, the children were transferred the here early on a saturday. they 1st were brought to the city of san jose. they love jada, which is on the border of the amazon of the columbia, and amazon jungle. once they were able,
6:30 pm
did the military to take them out of the jungle. that was very complicated due to the fact that the jungle was so thick where they were found that the attic cop there had to hover 60 meters above the threes. and they had to be brought up to the like cops or so that was the quite the mission itself. and then they managed to arrived here on the plane. we understand that there were a number of doctors that were at looking at the their conditions and that they're also now being monitored the here in the hospital, we're waiting for the doctors to attribute to give us more details about how they are doing. we briefly spoke with the grandfather of, of the children would say that they are weak. that obviously it has been very hard for them, but they are alive and that he's sure that they will be fine because they are getting the best possible treatment. what amazing story and the positive outcome of
6:31 pm

6:37 pm
a medical care for anyone that might need it. uh and this is a place where people can be safe. 5, we spoke to a family earlier this morning with young children. uh, they were all evacuated from a town about 3 hours to the north of where we're at right now. and they said they're safe. their house did not burn down, but they're just waiting to get the all clear. so when they can perhaps go back home again. here in quebec where i'm at and we're about 400 kilometers north of montreal just to give you some perspective. this certainly has been an area the hardest, badly hit by fires about a 130 fires burning here in quebec. and of those, uh more than a 100. uh, so about 80 percent are considered completely out of control. the good news is so they do not expect any more of activities to need to come here, at least in the immediate future as rain has been following for the last couple of
6:38 pm
days, helping firefighters battle these blazes. gabriel, i look at these numbers, the 100 fire is incorrect, that you just reported the 424 fires overall that, that we reported just before coming to you getting the scale of this. do the authorities have the resources to deal with it? of the yeah they, they, they don't. so that's the short answer and the federal government, the government here in canada has been asking for help. the candidate does not have a national forest fire service like for example, the united states as every province. and there are 10, and then 3 territories, they're all kind of on their own, so to speak, to fight their fires. normally, if there's a, a fire in one province, another province will send firefighters to help. the reason that they're short on firefighters is because there's fires burning in more than half of the provinces. so every province almost is fighting fires. that is why the canadian government has
6:39 pm
been calling for international help, and they have been receiving it. firefighters from france arrived here in quebec, just in the last 36 hours firefighters from south africa, from australia, new zealand, the united states, just to name a few. by monday, they're expecting just in port back this province to have over 1000 firefighters from different countries here to help battle these places that are 5 are raging here. this is certainly the the worst fire season. the candidate has ever seen fires in very rural areas in mesa is where all these fires are taking place very rural areas in the back country. it's common this time of year. what's different is all these fires are happening happening simultaneously throughout the entire country. that is what is straining resources here, and that is why the canadian government has called for and asked for international health as called for and receive international health. absolutely. gabriel is on

6:43 pm
development plan has stalled for over a month. now, major cities, towns and rural areas across the country have been left without electricity for several hours a day. and the power shortage. there's a major blow to the countries. industrial sector types have gone up several times in the past few years. i'm starting temperature have increased demand. we kind of run out of business as properly because of the phone offices. so customers strong come and all of us suffer during the hard for the it's very difficult time. the operating units of several power plants were shut down this month because of the full shortage business leader said the government should have kept domestic oil and gas resources instead of relying on the inputs which have drained foreign currency reserves. one ticket for the past month production has been having put and costs have increased to many industries and managing the diesel generators. but it costs twice as much as electricity from the grid. the text of the sector,
6:44 pm
which accounts for more than 80 percent of bond with this has exports is hard. he's the government as ours people to be patient or she could tell. i mean, there was a financial crisis in the wake of the increase in global fuel costs as the international markets. it won't last long. the situation will normalize within the next $15.00 to $16.00 days. analysts one that with an economic crisis growing and general elections to be held in january bind with this is likely to see more protest and under rest in the coming weeks and months turn, which of the data that's being and conduct our goal on was him. he's an industrial economist and research director of the center for policy dialogue and joins us from doc up by skype. so what's the root cause of this? then? in fact, the, the, the over expansion of the power to generate some type of cd over the years against best real progress. how's the demands of electricity is perhaps the reason. and
6:45 pm
that's why at this moment there is an excess gap of cd off over over 51 percent. yeah, so. b because along with that, with these a gap us we do go up in need to be is use the amount of capacity charges we use. uh, florida. 80 guys so far back. if it is being idle, it needs to be a factor in the amount of money. and what would the last 7 years, it was paid almost to $9000000000.00. and because of that, at this moment, there is charges of dollar to backdate that you know, the raw materials like get a, got a cold or diesel or energy to generate the power at this moment. how big is the gap? i wonder if you can quantify it for us between the energy the bangladesh needs and the energy it has. or in fact, at this moment, there is a total dep, us, the generation of city of $25000.00 megawatt. why the maximum generation was a 15000, but there is a demand for another 1000 meaning that the almost 70000 usually required. but he's
6:46 pm
back there is a gap of 50 all for over gap us. you don't get on the 30 to 40 percent. and so that is the reason. and this has happened along with, with the excess, the extra step us we've expansion not with have but along with that, the get out of turn on the prospect some lines that has been set up during this time. and the more he bought me is that a number of ball players with phone. com. and we still re added the ball or like a number of code baseball plans the, the pipeline. and that we'd also add, lat won't fall electricity becoming the coming decade, including a, then you get a baseball pass. we to also add electricity in the cities that printed 2000 meg. all our board of yeah, all capacity do we would, we wouldn't be added in the coming days. so we're not sure how these excess capacity to be used in weight. you cannot make active. it is when there is slow progress of investment in the country. all right, conductor, go on mazda,
