the will begin in zimbabwe. what people have been checking presidential and parliamentary elections, president m as in men and god, was seeking a 2nd 5 year to earlier. he costs his balance from the central city of quick way and, and gone go campaign on promises to create jobs and upgrade from link facilities. has main challenges. nelson to mesa, the opposition data hopes, frustrations about corruption. high inflation and unemployment will encourage people to vote for him the electoral commission. so some polling stations opened late while they waited for ballots to arrive and think this them around doing squared publicity in the most of our people, even the younger generation, are very interested in cost. we have one list of c media that we,

for the 1st time we wanted to show that we also have the rights records is really good. part of it also reports from outside of poland station and had already some funding stations open on time across the country. either didn't because of logistical issues that as an open field in that out in civil plugging station have inputs, i've been extremely special space to make the process through. the people won't have to wait a minute longer and they have to, what happens is when someone gets here, they check to make sure the name is on the voltage role. it's a long list. so sometimes it can take someone a couple of minutes to find a name when they find the names and go to the particular polling says the way they've been designated and they wait for they turn to vote. this is a body township. one of the oldest suburbs in nevada is also one of the pores and most destiny population. some of these people who wait in the line live in those apartments, those flags over the way. they all sometimes die of the days when there's no running water and no electricity. and because of the cost of living prices and

people are struggling to make ends meet, some families end up sharing one room to get it to try and you cut down costs. this is example of what life is like. here is above and economy and the high cost of living is a big issue for voters version days will be straightforward. here people aren't too concerned about that is what happens off to is 5 years ago. some opposition supported stock. it is also taking too long to be released. so the thought of protesting the army was deployed. some people were starting killed. people are hoping that doesn't happen this time, right? of course, another thing people are watching you waiting to see is that supposed to turn out will people come out and vote hardaman tasa out of their members of the economic block known as bricks. amazing for a 2nd day in johannesburg, the alliance is made up of brazil, russia, india, china, and south africa. leaders are looking to present in brooks as account wait to the west, the war and ukraine, russians growing isolation and global economic turmoil,

domination of the 1st day of talks on tuesday. so let's take a closer look at brooks the leaders of brazil, russia, india, and china originally made up the group in which held its summit and russia in 2009 south africa joined in 2010. the block is pushing to be a new global voice representing a close up of the was economy. first of all trade and the house of the global population, it wants to come to what it considers. a uni latch will approach in geo politics, but stresses that it's not empty west. these are challenging times. however, china and south africa's economies have slowed. russia has and beta ukraine and india seeks to balance relations in both moscow and washington. but more than 20 countries have applied to join brooks, including argentine of saudi arabia and iran. and finally, the miller is joining us live from johannesburg now. so what is on the agenda today at the summit funding, which hasn't seen this much international interest in years?

well, the day starts elizabeth with the addresses from leadership of the greeks members were expecting to jo from the 5 minutes to president of the member states within the next hour or so. and if we look at what they had said in the last 24 hours, it does seem to be a recurring theme around independence and, and, and what you said earlier that essentially a new global voice. and this is what they all in agreement about is that the is a new global voice, one that they're trying to push forward, establish. and one of the issues that they're looking at is the, the rise ation. so we'd like you to hear more about that essentially way these leaders are looking at moving away from dependence on the dollar as a, a global currency of trade. and just to give you an idea, the summit was also addressed by the south africa standard bank c o, some trouble. and he had said the shell that you install exports and import operations of the greeks is declining. last year it was only 28 percent. and so the

summit is about discussing issues related to the constitution of national currencies. so that move away from the dollar as well as expansion of the group which is expected to bolster the international. standing on this block will continue to be under discussion and we'd like you to hear more about that from leadership in the next hour or so right from me that and how much are we expecting the group to achieve at the summit when they're a clear differences between members such as india and china, and also differences between members, individual relationships with the west and the west, just to name a few divergences of the we just touched on the issue of the dollar eyes ation. and the issue of coverage sees within this group, and that's one area where they isn't consensus. countries like brazil, russia and china are supporting the use of local currencies. and they appears to be some disagreements around that. that's been debated for months now and continues to

be debated at this specific summit. so that's something where these expectation around some sort of concrete resolution and what happens going forward. also again, expansion, one of the key issues and the way they are diverging views around exactly what happens next. we should be admitted, the criteria that is used at the end of the basis for that admission to the group and potentially how it would benefit the group as well as those joining. but ultimately in terms of go the way forward. the key issue for many of these countries is economic growth, infrastructure and investment and general development, especially for developing countries. and that seems to bring these countries together in terms of what they want for developing nations, move away from the west and basically independence pull the existing bricks, members, and those going forward. how they get to that point that may be debatable, but they do have that incumbent in terms of what the aims are around this brick

summit and what the members are looking for. right. farm is the thank you very much for that front of them. of the joining us live from johannesburg degrees now with firefighters in the know so they've found a teen challenge. bodies of people believe to be migrant. while finance have been burning for days, the victims were discovered in area often used by asylum seekers crossing into europe from neighboring took here. john, so ralph allows for quotes from the city of alexandro polis may of the to fish for them. up the hills above alex, i'm the police are a furnace of heat and smoke and flame firefighters. stand toe to toe with a blaze baffling to push back in front of the despite the crews. extraordinary bravery the fires of being friends by gale force winds. there is little that can be done to stop them around house up the with a fly started has completely burned down. there is nothing left. now the father is moving downwards towards the rest of the village. for example,
