a young woman who died in police custody. and ukrainian troops hold off attacked by russian forces in the eastern don't beth regent. ukrainian president zalinski condemning moscow's tactics, calling them crazy, and the new space race. why several nations are competing to put humans back on the mood. scientists believe it can be a gateway to mars and beyond ah, eyebrow. gov is good to have you with us on this thursday and to night, a warning about our climate, the window of opportunity to keep global warming at a minimum is closing more quickly than we thought. a new report from the united nation says that the governments of richer countries are not doing enough to cut carbon emissions. instead of limiting warming to some 1.5 degrees celsius above pre

industrial levels. the u. n says that the world is now on track to be almost 3 degrees warmer. by the end of this century, un secretary general antonio terrace says an unprecedented economic transformation is needed to limit the impact of climate change. the windle to limits global temperature rise to $1.00 degrees is closing. fust, greenhouse gas emissions must be cut by 45 percent these decades. but as to those emissions get report confirms they remain and at dangers and record ice and still rising commitments to let seattle. and we're sienna, without the plans, policies and actions the beckett up our world cannot afford any more green washing, fake movers or late movers on joy now by nathan hoffman, he's director of the center for global sustainability at the university of maryland . he was also part of the us state department's climate team. it's good to have you

on the program. the you in chief says that the window to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees celsius is closing quickly. wouldn't it be more honest to admit though, that this 1.5 goal is now completely out of reach? well, i think that's the report shows that we really are in an emergency situation. it really is sounding the alarm. at the same time. i think it's quite important to know that 1.5 in fact is not out of reach. i think that it actually, the report shows that where we are with current policies, is tracking toward a much warmer world than what we are aiming for in the international and global community. but that it remains within reach in all of our countries to build the actions that are needed over the course of this decade to deliver the reductions on the order of magnitude needed to keep that 1.5 target allied missed over. let me

ask you, according to you in data, the world now appears to be on track to be about 3 degrees warmer by the end of this century. now, assuming that that will happen, shouldn't our leaders be laying the foundation of for building a more resilient society now and in the future? so it's absolutely true that we're already on committed to some degree of, of warming. and i think that it's urgently important that we continue to implement new policies across all sectors and all gases to reduce those emissions to levels that would be safer than the 3 degree projection in this report. at the same time. it's also very important, equally important to be preparing for the impacts of the climate change. we know we are already committed to. i'd like to get your opinion on the various ways to raise awareness about the climate crisis. i want you to look at what happened in

the hague netherlands to day a climate activist, gluing his head to the glass covering one of the most famous paintings in the world . premier's girl with a pearl earring and we have to point out that the artwork was not damaged, but we have seen many such protests in recent weeks and months. and a lot of people are upset over this. i mean, would you agree that, that the shock value is fleeting at best here? i mean, what's your take on these types of protests? yeah, i, you know, that's, here's the thing, you know, climate change, i think really is threatening of the things we love in this world. it really is threatening cultural heritage. it's, it's threatening our lives and livelihoods. it's threatening our economic vitality . and those are real genuine, present threats. so, to me,

it strikes me that we should be looking for opportunities to call awareness to that threat without creating additional risks for our current cultural treasures. nathan open with the center for global sustainability of the university of maryland. mr. hold, we appreciate your time and your insights. deny. thank you. thank you. but the u. s. has imposed new sanctions against iranian officials involved in the crackdown on anti government protest. human rights groups say that hundreds of people have been killed in recent weeks. rallies have marked the end of the traditional 40 day morning period for gina masa, a meet her death that well being held by iran, so called morality. police set off the protests that we're seeing now. mourners to day changed slogans. demanding rights for when ever more now i'm joined by come and my teenage senior lecturer on international politics at

the university of sussex. it's good to have you on the program this evening. i mean, you've been following the protests in iran closely. are you surprised that we are, that they're still going strong as they are 6 weeks following masa? i mean, he's death. i must admit, personally, i was surprised by the show of force by people yesterday on the 40th day of of the hour. my fine niece killing the crowd which came to street south her home town of stuck as in court. the sun was in the region of 100000. tens of thousands of people from different times came to the cemetery where she was buried. even though their forces had blocked the roads, they bypass them and, and actually got there. and not only there, i mean, across iran, there were protest universities in various cities and there were also casualties in the city of harbor and other cars or city. one person was killed and during his

kind of barrier today, massive protest broke out and report. so just 3 further people have been killed in that city. government building have been down in, sorry about interrupting you there. we've got a little delay here in the signal. what is different about the protests we're seeing now compared to protest movements that we've seen in the recent past? i think there are different both in terms of the nature of the protest, but also it's context. so in terms of the protest, this has been the largest geographically, most disperse and the most cross ethnic and cross class cross kind of sections sectional protests. we have had also 2 social groups take part in it. and most importantly, women play a key role, not only in terms of it's like the, the,

the, on the grounds on the streets, but also in terms of the strategic slogan of the movement. which is woman life reason which is very positive and also quite unifying in terms of different class and ethnic kinds of identities in iran, in terms of context. iranian politics is very different because in the last presidential election and parliamentary elections reform is faction, we're focus was effectively removed from the system. and therefore, the discourse of reform is in which you tend to actually give false hope to section of iranian society is no longer there. iran has never been more isolated because of the continuing and crisis talks with, with the west and iran, primary support. russia itself is engaging in the kind of losing war in ukraine. so however you look at the uranium regime is not in, in a kind of good shape to deal with such a large and look kind of protracted popular protein. yeah,

and we know that in the past, crackdowns by the regime, had silenced protests and protesters. do you think that history could repeat itself or maybe the question is, how far do you think that this regime is willing to go to stop these protesters? how far can it go? well the, i mean it's a signature kind of measure which is brutal. suppression in major cities hasn't worked so far. but it has to be said that the, the excessive violence regime has kind of is bad for the periphery of iran, ethnic periphery places like baluchistan in the south east, or cornerstone in northwest. and we so just we call, so i go to couple of weeks ago and i had on in, but it just on, off to 90. people were killed in a single day and just the other day yesterday, in fact ensure as we had an attack on the shrine in which 13 people were killed,

the government attributed to islamic states. but there are lots of reports which suggest this might be a inside work by the regime to distract from the, from the protest, but also create a pretext for further suppression as well as externalizing the crisis by accusing the regional states including saudi arabia, to which actually some of your indian leadership has, has pointed finger out so it seems that regime. 3 is trying to create distraction, but also externalized the crisis by creating such such situations. but it doesn't seem to work really and, and level of indecisiveness and confusion of the highest level of the state is visible. this time around mr. martine, to be very briefly, how close would you say we are to a revolution in iran? well, i mean, iranian revolution, 979 gives us some actually clue to what's going on from now. because every commemoration,

all the full and i killed protest in the 40 s t a in the 7th day this, this tradition exists in iran like yesterday, 40 days after gene, i mean he was killed. this creates a cycle of protests, kind of spontaneous people gather to come on the right, the, the person who has been killed. and there are so many killed. i mean at least 250. so as opposed to having came so far. so there is actually in built mechanism of reproduction and continuation of the protests. and if the images we see from iranian cities from yesterday and even today is anything to go by. i don't see really any level of exhaustion or fatigue of the people. so i think we should expect this go on for a while actually come on my scene with university of sussex, mr. murphy, we appreciate your time, your insights tonight. thank you. thank you. thanks for adding. let's take a look now. some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. bolivia has suspended food exports as nationwide. protests bring forming regents to

a standstill. the demonstrations began last week when the government postponed the census violence between demonstrators and believes has spread to the capitol le pass. the united nations is warning that somalia is on the brink of famine. a 1000000 people have been displaced internally. $20000.00 have fled to neighboring kenya. the horn of africa is suffering its worst drought in 4 decades. china is imposing new, locked down in cities, hit by coven 19 outbreaks. authorities in beijing and shanghai. our ceiling of buildings and shutting down entire districts. both cities have recorded fewer than 20 daily cases with no new year was she uses now the gray president volume is zalinski says that his forces are holding out against russian attacks in the eastern don bass region. he says, air strikes have destroyed nearly a 3rd of ukraine's energy infrastructure,

and he has condemned the kremlin tactics, calling them crazy. smoke rising over buck mote across much of the country. successful ukrainian counter attacks have put russia on the defensive. but in the eastern cities of us div co and bach moot, russian forces continue to grind forward. located in the don yet, gretchen, bachman has been under heavy bombardment for months. now ukrainian officials say it is the sight of some of the heaviest fighting in the country. as russia continues to advance was as if it were control over territory keeps changing. hands to dates as to morrow. there's the day after to morrow. as again, the fighting is intense to day, our guys took a prisoner a prisoner from russia. russia's offensive here is being supported by the wagner

mercenary group, a paramilitary force, with links to the kremlin. ukrainian and west and officials accused the group of recruiting prisoners from russian jails to fight in ukraine. now ukrainian soldiers on the front lines said these prisoners are being used as bait. a tactic presidency . lensky has described as crazy. but the majority of months is cold. one time use the main task of these one you soldiers is to come towards us and find out opposition if they are lucky, they will stay alive if not, they die. despite the intense fighting ukrainian troops are said to be holding on, but months of constant bombardment are taking their toll. and the russian offensive shows no sign of slowing down. or more nell, i'm joined by franklin, which he is a senior lecturer in strategy law at the university of portsmouth. he's a former military intelligence officer and he joins us tonight from oxford. it's good to see you again. what sort of enemy is ukraine facing there in the city

of buckland? what are your reports? said it's facing a mercenary unit, led by someone called you daniel found it by some code that you can play goshen. who was at one time, i think back in a day, putin says chef. now, cookie politics has led the soldiers to their deaths before back newton precaution tries to do what the ministry of defense in the army couldn't do which was take by . now the ports of that town is probably less certainly less than it was 2 months ago because it was intended at that time, but taking back move close or help to close. a salient not send it no longer exists . so what we've got here is essentially wagner pressing on to try and do what the army couldn't do and use that as leverage in the kremlin. it seems

like there are significant differences between the russian forces fighting in the dorm best region. 4 bathrooms and the troops that have been sent to defend parts in the south, such as your song and how well coordinated our russian forces in ukraine at the moment. well, it's a very good question. it was only very recently that a full theater commander joe general sort of a king, was appointed until then there was dispersed command was no unity of command. amazingly, from our perspective in the west, that was not one overall theater commander. so what you had is different areas competing for resources. now that's no longer the case. the units that you see in the south east, down the bottom of it in the sit out and ask area or a combination of army mercenaries and levies from finance on the middle in quality. all in the south before kind of sonya getting regular units.

although they have been savage, now, having been continuous combat with some fairly well equipped and very experience, you kind of units that we salvage for a long time. many of them depleted, so that big back feels not by some of these new recruits that we have heard about over the last 6 weeks or so. yeah, i mean, the world, you know, is still shocked at the, just the poor level of preparedness and performance that we're seeing by the russian military. at the same time, the world continues to be impressed by what ukrainian forces are doing. what do you, cranium forces need though to continue making progress and to continue re taking more territory? well, to the 1st point. the truth is, the russian army isn't a death spiral. it can't learn from its mistakes. it has lost critical amounts of equipment and it has already lost the question is how much land to the kind of home? the answer to main question concerning what you need is they need what they say

they need. they need self propelled artillery. lots and lots of ammunition. they need more and better tanks. and they need a little bit and it just sticks out. but it comes on the dishes while they leave longer range rockets to reach back into the russian supply chain. back into deep behind russian lines. nothing to russia itself, but behind that lines, those rockets can, the missiles could be fired from the high mas system. those are just some of the systems they need, not suspect india. course, they will get them military expert, frank led, which is always mr. leverage, we appreciate your time in your valuable insights. thank you. so it's a pleasure. thank you. are russia has moved a step closer to toughening up a so called gay propaganda lol. anything the scene is encouraging homosexuality soon could be punishable. the upper house of parliament still has to approve the legislation o these pro, just as

a fighting for equal rights in russia. but demonstrations for l g b t q writes here, often brutally halted by authorities. one of the instruments of repression over the past decade has been the so called gay propaganda law introduced in 2013 authorities say it's needed to prohibit the promotion of what they call non traditional sexual values to children. now russia is set to pass new legislation further restricting the l g p t q community by expanding the law to adults as well . you watching to recruit just congress that says we don't live in a democratic state without exhausted or i think that lawmakers in the doom are trying to convey the impression that they carry favor with this oppressive machine machine. it and the victims of this machine is of the most vulnerable once the all corners are l g, b, t q plus people with their calculus hopes for the new law that is already going to russia's low, a house of parliament. the state duma will effectively forbid any positive

references to l g p t q, topics in popular media and on the internet. activist fair, the new law is a further step towards state sponsor discrimination and repression. and that it will leave the l g p t q community, even more stigmatized in russian society when he w, uri rossetto is in riga and he told us how russians might respond to this new law. well, let's look at and even in saw if it's house house or russian society has completely different problems at the moment above all the mobilization, which many people are still very, very afraid of. and to, while it sounds house for us, that the rationality q community has become accustomed to state sponsors to a phobia over the past. yup. 20 part. yes. and while there isn't no lower directly coming to lazing, homosexual relationships as such, rochester algebra,

q community must be concerned about their safety. in this respect, that the law doesn't change anything fundamentally, but it changes and already difficult situation for the wars. and i don't expect any protests russians are intimidated, restricted in, at the end, freedom of expression. and since the beginning of the mobilization also disorient, there was uri regime reporting there, israel in lebanon, and had ended a long standing dispute over their shared maritime border in the mediterranean. the 2 countries are still technically at war. so leaders have signed an agreement separately. both nations hoped to benefit from off shore gas extraction within the area that was once disputed. you as president joe biden has called this deal historic w. tonya kramer explains what the argument was about. the mediterranean sea, off the coast, between israel and lebanon. these fair contest at waters. both countries have long

been locked in dispute over where the maritime border lies. behind the scenes, negotiations have gone on for several years. now. israel and lebanon have agreed on a maritime booted you mediated by the united states. this skim submit as agreement, strengthens israel security, and our freedom of action against has bla and the threats to our north. there's rare consensus in the security establishment regarding the necessity of this agreement. the dispute is about a relatively small triangle shaped area with each side claiming their part as exclusive economic zone. the areas expected to be rich in offshore gas, israel and lebanon, have long history of conflict. the 2 countries for the war in 2006. and there has been many security incidents between israel and the lebanese she, i militant group, has been lost since parts of the countries land border. the blue line,

a demo cation line by the u. n. is also disputed whether the maritime bought a d. a could be a step towards of white a peace agreement as unclear. but the deal paved the way to mock us exploration a potentially economic benefit for both countries. while the space race is back, several countries including the us, china, russia, india, and israel are trying to reach the moon. it's not just a quote for national glory. this time scientists, they see the moon as a gateway, a place to build bases that could been launch missions to mars, and beyond. ah, the moon has one indispensable resource for manned space flight water. h 2 o can be used to make breathable air for astronauts. and fuel for rockets the

largest water deposits are in the deep, i see craters at the lunar poles at the moon, south pole alone. research is suspect. there is as much water as in germany's largest lake up on the, at any time or over the next few years. an outpost is set to be built in the lunar all bit. the so called luna gateway. nasa will build it with canada, europe and japan. it wants to involve the private sector more than before. the new space station will serve as a research platform and later as a base for mand flights to the moon, or it's all mit should make it possible to see the far side of the moon and the south pole. and to have constant radio contact with earth nights on the moon. last for 14 earth days at the temperatures dropped to 160 degrees celsius

below 0. that's a major hurdle for long term human missions. but there are craters at the south pole, with rims that are almost always in sunlight. nasa wants to build a lunar station and such a crater, the so called are to miss base camp. are initially astronauts will land in transport craft, which will also serve as their accommodation during their short stays. but as they explore the surrounding terrain in vehicles. with each mission the lunar face should become more comfortable when a fire spacecraft, i think the equipment and robots will build the infrastructure up to for astronauts will work here for up to 2 months at a time. the outpost will also serve as a springboard for

a new mission, human voyages to mas with the soap. we can save earth in the process. you want u d. w. news. he'll be back at the top of the hour with more world news followed. by the day i have to see you the truth . ah, with

you to the point. strong opinions, clear positions, international perspectives. as ukraine presses on with its counter offensive against russian occupiers, moscow claims kias plans to detonate a dirty bomb and does the nuclear muscle flexing of its own a sign of proteins weakness find out on to the point to the point where

it dw 8, no. ah again again, all the harvesters are immigrants go, lucas, they form in everything you enjoy, eating at home with your family, was harvested by people who are being exploited. then i d. 's for free and we're going to need dora. we can keep doing what we're doing. we need to become as sustainable as possible management, and that's why your green revolutionaries absolutely necessary. europe review the future thing, determine now our documentary series will show you how people, companies and countries are we thinking everything and making later changes

were milam for cuba. if a massive cyber attack or something like that happens and we can reboot our country from the outside of a, from it so or future after all. and if we don't do something, our children won't be able to enjoy fresh air with the water that only europe revealed starts november 3rd on d w. as ukraine presses it's counter offensive against russian occupying forces in the south, moscow's doing some nuclear muscle flexing, conducting military exercises, simulating response to a nuclear attack and accusing kias of planning to launch one russian forces in this other region around house sun have been moving, injured, people and civilians out of the city, but it's unclear whether the troops themselves are break.
