unable to cook. these meals are going to feed new mothers in the darkened hallways of michael lives maternity hospital number 3 here didn't show any person is al thursday without electricity. we can't cook with them, but we need to feed the maternity ward the mother's with newborns to pick up. hello . are you and your mom's? it is the ciocca. the donated lunches help a lot. they're saving us. it would have jake's is, per se, engineers, a racing to repair the damage before winter officials and keith say it could be days or even weeks before power and heat are restored in the capital in the un. what city? some businesses refuse to let circumstances shut them down. this restaurant staying open by candlelight and adjustment that dinars are trying to embrace as a sign of resilience. i said, as a matter of fact,

it toughened this up even more. there's been a power cut, but it helps our ukraine to say power. and apart from that, you can feel the mood. but it's very romantic with a good m a. think. what phil walker on the front line say again, for from thoughts of romantic dinners, ukraine's defenders are trying to remain up beat. despite the constant shelling from russian lines, commander yuri compares the destruction to a famous siege from world war 2. like a stalin rub because lee fell. may be 90 percent of build in sorrow. demolition f like darling darling god they haven't they call them solid growth but it's is solid. dotted a few minutes down the road from soley door is the city of buck moot? which moscow has been trying to capture for months. analysts say it has no strategic

value, but the ukranian defenders say the enemy keeps sending troops in droves. voice than with al guys, we're fighting with them. their bodies are just lying there. $5100.00 per day, daniel. luckily they didn't even take the bodies away along with them. i'll guy's going to have a look and took the gun. some other news of it i can give you a gun if you want. like the civilians whose lives and homes they are defending. ukraine's frontline soldiers are hanging on but at a devastating cost and a president, she jan paying her sealed a 3rd term as leader of the chinese communist party. he's now confirmed as china's most powerful ruler in decades. she's appointment wrapped up the week long party congress in the great hall of the people. constitutional changes cemented she's dominance. he also shook up the parties senior ranks promoting several close allies and very pleased to welcome at mary gallagher. political science professor at the

university of michigan in the united states was research focuses on china. thank you so much for taking the time on. we've seen she, jim pink cementing his power at this congress. what is that going to mean for china's future? well, it's definitely the case that he's completely centralized power around himself. he's promoted all of his people into the policy or a standing committee. so there are no actions anymore to balance against him. it seems to indicate that he will have a lot of latitude to promote the policies that he's been discussing. and it's really unprecedented in the last 2 decades. we haven't seen the centralization of power around a single person. they also want to talk about the situation for women in china. there will be no women in the poet bureau for the 1st time in 25 years. does that mark a step back when it comes to women's rights in china? i would say it does. i think there are also a lot of other signs that we can point to that also show that women's rights and

women's positions and politics are going to be on a downward trend. it's not, it isn't even just this. it's a bunch of things that have happened over the last several years. there's been more discrimination against women in the workplace after they lifted the one child policy. so that's very hard for women to advance professionally. we've seen crackdowns on feminist activists and we've seen and she didn't. haines own words, putting much more emphasis on this idea that women have a special traditional role in the family. and why do you think we're seeing this return to more traditional conservative politics? i think the chinese communist party has always been quite conservative when it comes to gender equality. they have advanced gender equality. early on in the, in the 900 fifties women have never reached the pinnacle of power. and when they have like during the cold turbo revolution, it was seen as a very negative thing to have happened. so i don't,

i don't think this is going to be a new trend but rather doubling down on something that has always been really strong in the communist party. but i think there is one important reason now and i think it's the economy. i think there and the demographics, so there's a slowing economy and the government will put more emphasis on male employment over female employment. plus they want to boost the birth rate. so not just seem to watch how policy relax. we actually now see women being encouraged to have birds. and in fact, in some cases, being discouraged to have abortion. a reason we've seen women at web protests around the world, for example, in russia and iran, just before i let you go, what do you think the chances are of seeing a similar kind of movement in china? well, she didn't thing before the concentration of power that we see in his 3rd term. he's been very deliberate and i think very smart in cracking down on all types of social activism. so we've seen labor, we've seen the media,

we've seen women crackdown on really since the very beginning of his term in 2012. so while women may try to express dissatisfaction and there are of course and several things that when that has happened, like punish why the tennis player who accused the top chinese leader a great you know, the crackdown has been quite effective at limiting those voices. i thank you so much for that update, as mary gallagher from the university of michigan. really appreciate your taking the time. thank you. it's got a sports now. and in the german women's bonus league, the 2 top teams went had to had unmatched a 5, baltimore coast and byron, with both teams going into the match undefeated. byron street was snapped as the wolves shout more bite. the star studded squads of volkswagen by and went head to head for the table lead in front of just over 21000 fans a new league attendance record for the hosts. both teams began to match. rather cautiously with germany sta. alexander popped the main source of few early chances

. she did find the back of the net in the 21st minutes, but had straight offside and the goal was correctly ruled out. from then on it was all about volkswagen. shortly before half time the deadlock was broken. if a player got a healthy dose of luck to claim her 5th of the season. after her heavy touch, an attempt to clear the bowl from by and sat as others you ricocheted off by your into the opposition go after the break vote spoke double they lead through. captain sweeney, a hoot, who spectacular finish was also teed up by a poor clearance from by him. the league's best defense conceding their 1st 2 goals of the season. in fact, the last thing to score against them in the buddhist think it was vo, spoke back in april. the visitors then finally showed some attacking intent. layton with a nicely worked goal to shorten the lead. linda gentleman put his on a platter thick lotta booth, but it was merely a consolation. as wolf's books,

victory puts them 5 points ahead of their opponents and hinders around the world. are looking forward to your devali. the festival of whites starting on monday and celebration ends in india's capital in delhi. this year could look very different authorities, there have been fireworks to cut down on pollution. ah, the twinkling lights of earth and lamps o d, it's ready to welcome and to valley celebrations. here in new delhi looks like different this year. these are some of the $50000.00 dea candles being let now that there's a ban on fireworks this year. all 5 that goes to let me think little of them being bad. delia city of about 20000000 is the world's most polluted capital and fireworks let during the valley only adding to air pollution problems. any one caught using them now faces a fine or up to 6 months in jail. we encourage bp, the bond, the us little, distribute sweet,

share sweet in sort of crackers. so this is a event is more symbolic to what's, what we are doing. and we hope that this will act as a general inspiration. while it may be a wind for the environment, the shift to green us celebrations is taking its toll on some businesses. depend donaway my, my firecrackers business is down about 80 percent shot, one of them. if i make only a few rupees a day. the fireworks business is finished anyway, but others welcome the change. get to see. but he were krashib auditory. i'm full of joy. this will bring down pollution because you come we're, we must light lamps or not explode fireworks, or it will reduce pollution benefits. everyone's health, a mighty you say that go on your gum. will you? festival goal is a hopeful defy will expand, won't take the spot, count of the hendo festival of likes. and just before we go,

madrid is used to welcoming herds of tourists, but these visitors got more than a few heads turning. ah, hundreds of sheep and goats, flocking through the spanish capital, were part of a festival reenacting traditional rural ways. the annual event allows shepherds to use centuries old roots to move their livestock from spain's mountains to low land winter pastures. as an update at this hour, i'm quite richardson in for lend for the team. thanks for watching. oh, i'm just kinda. i think that's hard and in the end is a me, you are not a lot of to you anymore. we will send you back. are you familiar with this reliance.
