brazil's presidential election heads for iran or vote. neither of the 2 leading candidates, current president able scenario and former leader louis enough to let us silver received the majority in sundays. first bout the 1st funerals are held in indonesia for victims of saturday stampede at a football stadium. at least 125 people were killed off the fans or the losing side storm the pitch. and police responded with tear gas. and he is losing. and the battle field reality he faces is i think, irreversible. the retired top american general david trail says the us and its allies would destroy all of russia's troops and equipment in ukraine. if putting were to use nuclear weapons. cave continues. it's counter offensive, and i'll fully control the strategic eastern city of lima.
12:02 pm
ah . ahead of us, welcome to the program. this years nobel prize from edson has been awarded for genetic research on human evolution suite of scientists wanted paypal is a known for sequencing the genome of the in the under thought, an ancestor of our modern humans. we also discovered that dennis silva, another extinct sherman in what species he showed that both contributed genes that still exist offered and in modern, intriguing questions. dna holds the call now that nozzle was made half an hour ago . i'm not john boss. senior science goes bonnet. derek williams, derek ed, this mobile price quote, was one. the paypal it does come as a surprise does not it, it does kind of come a little bit of out of left field. now. there's no way to really predict no about
12:03 pm
the nobel prizes. i've been trying to do for 15 years and, and i've had actually very scant success. but in general, you can say sort of, they tend to, for example, alternate between basic fundamental research into, into biology or in the physiology. so things like last year we had one on, on how cells perceive stimulus and, and transmit that information to our brain. so basic fundamental research and generally they then go the next year or the year after just something that has a clear impact on health care. now this is for a field cold evolutionary anthropology, so it's a, it's a, it's a completely distinct field that actually has very little to do with, with human health care and much more to do with fundamental research for the 2nd year in a row. now, now, tell us more about the signs that spawn to pay. we did well basically back in the he is research began back in the ninety's when we began to do it. you're looking at the genome, the human genome research, when we're going to be able to, to, to,
12:04 pm
to genome equally sequence our own dna and, and his idea was how does our da, what does our dna look like when compared to that of our extinct closest evolutionary cousins and so he began to look into ways of actually isolating and sequencing genomes of neanderthals and, and, and dennis, so of ins and, and other extinct hamann and groups that are close relatives and comparing those then to human dna to see how we are the same genetically speaking and in what ways we were different, but how do we profit from that, from knowing that ultimately you also have to think there's, there's going to be reasons why there is species went extinct it's, it's, it's really human knowledge about about why did we humble to safety and sapiens become the dominant hominem species on this planet, or their judgement or their genetic reasons for if so,
12:05 pm
what are those genetic reasons? it's about finding out about our own past. but also this genetic information could also have a distant impact on health care. and in terms of telling us why those differences could then actually tell us more about why we survived and they didn't . what impact will this research have on the science? it over the surprise have on the scientists who receives it? well, i think that, i mean, as i said it come, i'm sure that he is very, very surprised i most scientist. so shortlist is there. no, there is no short list. there is no short list or, and, and the, the debates that go on are only actually freed up 50 years later. so nobody even knows who came in for discussion. actually, i think this year everybody was expecting it to go from messenger r n a. yeah. but this is coming really from, from nowhere. it was not any of the short list that i read. that's for sure. oh, good job on reading up on all this in just half an hour. thank you very much,
12:06 pm
derek williams, that our senior science coast now brazil's presidential election will be settled in a 2nd round of voting on october 30th. that's after the no candidates took an absolute majority of votes on sunday, nearly all of the ballads counted fuller. president louis enough to let the silva as 48 percent incumbent variable to narrow, received that unexpectedly strong 43 percent. the moderate simon aid tibbets is the trailing with just full percent. now, lula spoke to support us in the commercial capital sao paulo. let's have a listen. what is it you know that the economy is not good, that your quality of life isn't good, that the job market isn't good so that the health system isn't good. we want to make our country better again, including our international affairs. it, i always believed we were going to win those electrons here and i want to tell you
12:07 pm
that we will win these electrons. oh well that raisins approval tie to the most survey suggested revitalizing incumbent president. j bowles and i was campaign after he insisted polls couldn't be trusted, is surprising, showing dashed rulers hopes all the quick. when was the theme of me today? we overcame the light. i was out of appalling institute, predicted something around 50 percent and 30 percent. we overcame that light. we have a 2nd round of voting. there will be a level playing field for both sides. and we'll be bring you more updates on brazil's presidential race throughout the day. and there's also a lot more on our website, d, w dot com. and our, let's take a look at some of the other news stories making headlines around the world today. the british prime minister liz truss is reversing her plans to slash taxes for the
12:08 pm
wealthy. the policy has a spark rebellion in her own party and lead to turmoil in financial markers, the decision is likely to put trust leadership on the increasing pressure less than 4 weeks after she came to power. palestinians have protested the killing of 2 people by his railey troops. israel's military said fatally shot. the 2 men during arrayed on a westbank refugee camp soldiers open fire on a car. they said was attempting to ram the israel has been carrying on regular arrests grades after a spate of palestinian attacks against israelis in the spring. iran continues to be rocks fancy government protests with students rallying in the central city of videos posted on social media. sho, protesters breaking down the gate to the city university rainy and officials have urged security forces to respond harshly to anyone they say is endangering public
12:09 pm
order. and turning to the latest developments in the ukraine war, ukrainian forces are reported to be recapturing territory in the south of the country. russian installed official acknowledged that ukraine has might breakthroughs in the house on a region a day after ukrainian president zalinski said his troops liberated several settlements. her son is one of 4 regions russia illegally annexed last week. the extent of the ukrainian advance has yet to be verified. now let's go straight to our correspondent, ne, commonly in the ukranian capital. keith nick, what more can you tell us about ukraine's counter offensive in the south? well, as usual, the details are pretty sparse, but we get the sense that ukraine's forces are heading to what's kept. so not from the western direction, which has been the place that seen most fighting in the weeks that have gone by.
12:10 pm
but now heading towards could song from the north, this is a very exposed russian position on the west bank of the ne pro river, which is a very wide river ukraine is basically taken most, if not all of the bridge is out of action that would allow russia to resupply its garrison, they have from the other bank of the rivers, been a really difficult position, trying to get supplies in by pontoon, bridge and by air. and there is a sense that things are happening here. if you look back to the summer, all the eyes were on had song on the certainly ukrainian officials were talking about her son all the time. but it's turned out to be basically a distraction from their real time which was her give. and that kind of amazing lightning comprehensive. so ukraine take back so much searching the space of a week, but it does seem like that song is now the priority and certainly people in the ground that you can. so casey, get hold of all hearing more in the way about to re fire and of shooting going around in the distance. but this is always a thing way at the, at the real details. they kind of filter through to 3 days later after now we just left guessing, looking at social media, looking at russian military blog is complaining about
12:11 pm
a lack of supplies and trying to make some reduces from that. now it will come back to you in a 2nd 1st, the former u. s. army general david's trials as issued a warning to russian president vladimir putin. he says the us and its allies would respond decisively to any use of nuclear weapons in the ukraine. let's have a quickness in just to give you a hypothetical. we would respond by leading a nato, a collective effort that would take out every rational cont, wrenching, conventional force that we can see and identify on the battlefield, ukraine, and also in crimea, and every ship on the, in the black sea. so make coming a back to you about how has this morning by the trails been received in a new crime. well, the thing is that he's not the only former us general top level general making these kind of statements. they will say that there you're speaking a personal capacity,
12:12 pm
they haven't kind of spoken directly to the people making decisions now in the white house. but it does seem like this is kind of coordinated and that this wouldn't happen without some kind of green light from the current us ministration. that really has affected people thinking here in ukraine who basically we're discounting those threats from moscow, seeing it bases an empty bluff. and i think these warnings and these kind of threats of counter measures do make people hearing ukraine think that the russian threats usually happens is more real than they'd wanted to believe. and you do get reports, people in preparing id and tablets trying to work out what to do in case such attack does happen. so that issue is since this escalation is real and that there is a heightened danger of this kind of thing really happening. nick only they're reporting from keith. thank you, nick. to indonesia now where president joke will be dodo has ordered an investigation into a deadly riot at a football stadium on the weekend. when fans of the losing team stormed the pitch police fight tear gas triggering a stampede. the 1st few rules have been held for the 125 people that were killed.
12:13 pm
their school was revised down by officials. now i, indonesia correspond, guild matters, filed this report about the events in milan on the island of java. silence on the soccer pitch the day after the ma lung stadium disaster. all of this has now become evidence in a desperate investigation of how things could get so out of hand. outside the hospitals. in milan, in the province of east java, hundreds of people are searching for their loved ones. like this father. he can find his 18 year old daughter. so far. i've been to 3 hospitals and i can't reach her. maybe the phone is on low battery. i also can't reach her boyfriend. the tragedy unfolded the night before when frustrated supporters of the losing home team invaded the pitch throwing bottles and other items. police officers fired tear gas triggering
12:14 pm
a stampede. the world suckers governing body fever prohibits tear gas in or near stadiums. the local police chief declined to answer our questions about the event. ah, what's clear is that the stadium was filled beyond capacity. 42000 tickets for a venue made to hold. 38000 spectators. hospitals are now struggling to care for scores of injured ha. initially we received 93 patients, now 12 our left, 5 with serious head injuries and 4 in critical condition. the rest on the way to recover ha linus. they have been outbreaks of violence at matches in indonesia before but not at this scale. the president has now suspended the league until further notice demanding a detailed investigation in what is one of modern histories, worse stadium disasters?
