the people feel or correspondent charlie chelsea pill. she's been reporting on this story, forrest and she gave us this assessment of events in london. the publication of this report had been built as a make or break moment for the prime minister, a time off to which members of his own party would decide on his political future. now that report has now been watered down in line to the fight. there is a police investigation also ongoing. the c gray report this as its being cool does not go into any details about any of the alleged gatherings in light of a request from the police. not to do so, so isn't, doesn't carry the weight that it once is thought to have done full members of the prime minister's own party. they'll have to decide whether it's enough for them to gather to hand in they last is recognizing that they don't have any confidence in
8:07 pm
the prime minister triggering this votes of no confidence the jury is out on them. i'm at the moment over whether or not that will be the case that were a number who stood up earlier today in parliament criticising the prime minister as some have done before in public as well. namely to day to resume the former prime minister. she said, the report shows that number 10 is not observing the regulations it imposed on the public. not really as the crux of this why that's been so much anger here. and i think some will the side that regardless of what say members of the prime, this is own party do going forward the public has and has been making its own judgments on the prime minister. there was a correspondent charla chilson pill. they're reporting from london. let's get a round of now some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world . portugal governing socialist party has been celebrating after a bigger than expected victory and sundays elections. the result allow prime minister antonio corsica to stay in power with an absolute majority in parliament.

8:09 pm
and accusing russia of destabilizing europe by massing more than a 100000 troops near its border with ukraine. now, amid fears of an invasion, a growing number of ordinary ukrainian civilians are taking up arms. carvey is ukraine's 2nd largest city and it's not far from the russian border. some women, they say they will use deadly force to defend their homes. ukrainian women from all walks of life or training to shoot with the help of an instructor. the volunteers are learning how to operate machine guns on weekends. these women are willing to do whatever it takes is the most important. if our government hands out weapons, we will take them and defend our city uses. during the 1st days. we will use our weapons that we have already authorized on the border. you. some of the luck of it is both. together they have

8:12 pm
a controversial debate at the un security council and a fight for the public opinion. either we have to remind our audience that ukraine is not a member of the security council, but it is taking part in this meeting to day. could this be a chance then for direct diplomacy between russia and ukraine and shore could be brand, but the tensions are so high that we're rather seeing sharp attacks than diplomacy at this point here in this stage at the un security council. but of course, on the other hand, all conflict parties are involved, they are sitting together there. and it's also the 1st time the un security council gets together on the question of a troop built up on russian to build up the ukranian border. but the plan of the united states really wants to put that topic on the world stage there at the u. n. and russia and china try to avoid exactly that at the beginning of the meeting, they wanted to continue behind closed doors. the majority of the participating of
8:13 pm
participating countries then voted for a public meeting. but, you know, in spite of that, there are really no hopes that can be any formal action taken, or even a resolution. a resulting out of that. russia, as you know, has veto riots, so they're in a very strong position, and they also have the support of china. but that's also the goal of the u. s. wants to use the security council simply to gain momentum for their diplomatic path forward. we, we know that the united states already has sanctions against russia. employees, if there is any move against ukraine, what else is the u. s. consider and that's right. so there are sanctions in place. 1 since the annexation of crimea, and 2014, they're considered ineffective. the west is now threatening, and that of course, including the u. s. as well as the european union in canada and new level of sanctions that could reach from economic boy called to cutting off russian banks
8:14 pm
from the international financial grid to even some personal sanctions against vladimir putin. that has been a 2 in earlier years. so that would be really a new level of sanctions that have never been imposed against any country of. 2 course it could hurt the russian economy, but probably it would also heard of the world economy and all participants participating countries. d w 's over sell it with the latest tonight from washington. oliver's always thank you. well it is being called north korea's most significant weapons test in the year it's, pyongyang has confirmed the launch of a missile that it says can reach us beaches in the pacific. north korean state media say that the weapon is a, was song, 12 intermediate range ballistic missile capable of hitting the u. s. territory of guam with a nuclear warhead. it's the 1st time since 2070, that north korea has tested a missile of this saw the report said pictures of the earth were taken in space
8:15 pm
