still counting votes. the final word on who controls congress that may come in weeks not digs, and more than 4 years after the murder of salty journalists, jamal kush oak, his fiance tells dw news of her determination to hold his killers accountable, and to keep her husband's memory aloft. ah, i'm bring gov to those watching on p b. s. in the united states into all of you around the world. welcome russia to night saying that it's troops have started withdrawing from the strategic city of here. son in southern ukraine, ukraine's army chief says that it's too soon to tell if that is true, and there is suspicion that this could be a trap set by the russians. the withdrawal, however, is still being called

a major setback for vladimir putin. ukrainian troops slowly advanced on house on the city has been held by russia since early on in the war. ukrainian, president, philadelphia, zalinski has urged caution and these soldiers, a wary of possible traps left behind by the retreating russian army for service. walk through me. he was step by step, we will reach victory normal. we will not rush, losing people on our way with which the russian troops are scared of the law. they didn't expect so much resistance from our side. and in recent weeks, ukrainian forces have been closing in on hassan and say, they've already re taken several towns in the region. russia has been relocating tens of thousands of residents and the straits of house on a now virtually empty rushes commander in ukraine announced the retreat in

a military briefing on state tv. on wednesday workers, he argued it was no longer possible to keep supplying hassan rewarded more explorica po burkle. when my foreclosure nibbled, this is a very difficult decision, but we will be saving the lives of our service men and the combat capability of our troops, which is necessary to stay on the right bank or in a limited area. russia's defense ministry says, troops have already begun moving out of the city. a forced pull out of russian troops from her son would be a significant blow to vladimir putin. only weeks ago, the russian president announced what he called the forever annexation of the house on region, along with 3 others in a ceremony in moscow. her son was the 1st major city captured by russia at the start of the war. and re taking it could allow ukraine to win back more lost territory in southern areas, including crimea,

which russia illegally seized in 2014 or earlier i spoke to our correspondent mathias brinninger in key that i asked him why the ukrainians are still wary of this russian announcement, it's a bit unusual to announce a withdraw days in advance. and rhetoric has even before hinted at that. so that something that makes a military here suspicious. the plot could very well be to draw the ukrainians into the city of harris on wait. there with a quite a few units heavily armed and engage the ukrainians and costly street fights or to have major buildings mine to a blow up or parts of the city as the ukrainians enter their many variance. but to this announcement seems a little bit suspicious to people here to the military, and that's why the ukrainians are saying they're moving on very cautiously. they're

very well aware that this might be something different from what it looks like in what he has. well, what about where you are there in the ukrainian capital key, but what are people they're saying about this withdrawal announcement? at 1st, of course, the announcement was met with joy. it was expected that the ukrainians might move on to hassan and that the russians might retreat. but a no, of course people are discussing all these possibilities and trying to figure out what is really going on. it's of course, the biggest subject of discussions now in the ukrainian capital. he w mathias, berlin, innkeeper mathias. thank you. don montela zigler mo, so she's an expert in russian for an insecurity policy at kings college london. earlier i asked her why ukraine is not rushing into the city of harrison,

even the russian says that its forces or withdraw. well, i think of as i sat by your correspond and i mean the ukrainians are very worried that it could be a trap. i'm that you know, they could face and some kind of ambushes. i mean, what they're reporting is saying is also that there are a lot of sort of road blogs lines. so if you say, if you could advance mentoring, it's not an easy one. but i think that this announcement was made primarily for internal russian consumption primarily to prepare the russian public to that, to the food withdrawing from from the area from app, from app, from the city of credit. so, and i'm from sort of the north western bank of nearby river, so i think we need to see to have within, to sort of perspective so. so you're saying that this announcement is, is basically a p r, move for the russian military to prepare the russian public for what for,

for a defeat or for yet another blow to this campaign i. i think that if they look at what happened in the, in the areas of kind of keys when there was a major sort of bonds. my you bring in full say is i'm that was sort of like a lapse of russian forces in that area. and in the north east, that was there came as a real shock to many in russia. and it was seen as a, as carried out in a very sort of unprofessional mom not without taking care about, you know, sold years and equipment. so what the russians are trying to do a thing are actually the timing to with roy to do a non more a sort of organized and professional manner. and this is going to take us everybody days. so what i think what they are trying to do is to sort of prepare their population to add to these, to this event, which is in many ways a serious defeat. i mean, we, as we, as we know a few weeks ago, this was considered, you know, the copy down of one of the next regions. so also we must consider that now,

you know, the position of the russian government is much weaker. they have relied on mobilization of const great, so there is much more on getting this so it requires sort of additional explanations on and now the way things change, i think of who is in charge of the operations in ukraine, from the russian point of view. you know, there is not to have been to professionalism, but communication. and i think this is, this is really part of it. of course, it makes sense for your brain is to be cautious. but what is interesting is that today we see a very heavy fighting in bar mode in the back mode area. so this does not mean a trace of giving up on he's not going to fight any longer. i mean, you have an area where russia is fighting quite intensely and there is a lot of concern around the area now to a diplomatic conflict, developing in europe over migrants that were rescued from the mediterranean for

days, italy has refused to allow people to disembark from several rescue ships of, of the italian coast, one of those ships the ocean. viking had passengers who had been at sea for weeks. france agreed to take in the 230 migrants, but not without harshly criticizing italy's new right wing government over its refusal. it's been an odyssey of hardship for the passengers of the ocean, viking over 200 migrants, including 57 children, rescued from mediterranean waters and brought to europe's doorstep by the charity s o s military money. for days they waited off the coast of italy for permission to dock permission that never came. finally, france agreed to let them dock in the military port of 2 long. in the meantime, french maritime authorities evacuated passengers and crew with health issues. thea

helicopter italy recently granted access to 3 other ships carrying migrants roam, said a 4th vessel would be too much. but france had harsh words for italy, inability to eat, the new italian authorities of made the incomprehensible choice to not respond to multiple calls for assistance addressed by the ship over the past days. even if it was an uncontested lee in italy, search and rescue zone as one door shut, there is no doubt. however, in terms of international law and maritime law, y'all did that. it was italy's duty to immediately designate a port did to welcome this photo to parker yes about to while tensions between european nations over immigration are common. the outspoken response from paris is unusual and it hasn't stopped at mere words. france is pulling out of a deal to take on over $3000.00 asylum seekers from italy and has vowed to beef up

at security on the italian border. as for the over 200 migrants aboard the ocean viking, they will stay in europe some in france, others in germany, and a weight asylum processing known to the united states president biden has welcome the results of this week's midterm elections. his democrat party, they fared better than expected. u. s. media had predicted huge gains for the republicans, but that did not happen however, binds democrats. they look said to lose control of the house of representatives in congress. now the battle for the upper chamber of congress, the senate, it remains on the knife edge. 3 key states are still telling the votes. there was a spring in the step of the u. s. president, as he face report is that the white house, the way to pre election fears, perhaps lifted from his shoulders after better than expected midterm results. it was a good day, i think, for democracy. i think it was

a good day for america. nurtured me a little hoarse. our democracy has been tested in recent years, but with their vote. so the american people spoken and proved once again that democracies who we are. this was a big task for j biden, who couldn't hide his glee when congratulating democrats, who'd helped see off a predicted republican sir j o y rivers. in graduate joe mike griffin, better you was your congratulations and so her mom, earlier the democrats make them better than even the president expected. who with vote still being counted. there is still much to play for what happens here in nevada. could be pivotal to who wins. control of the senate is one of 3 states that could swing the us up a house back into a publican hands, patients. now the watch word here with hundreds of staff working to process pallets

another is georgia where the race between democratic incumbent, rafael warnock, and republican challenger herschel walker, who now going to have run off in december. at the end of the day, everyone wants to know that we have honest and fair elections. and we do. i asked the voters to come out and vote one last time. just a few days ago, former president donald trump's mood had been buoyant, as he celebrated initial republican successes. he ham pigs many of the names on the ballots in key states. but in true trump style, he's now described the vote as somewhat disappointing in a message to supporters on his own social platform. while also hailing a very big victory with donald trump, andrew boyd, both claiming victory for their rival parties. i asked her correspondent to me some was gone to in washington if they could both be right.

okay, so if we look at both parties for president biden, he was asked after these midterms if he's running and 2024. he said, as of now he's running, he has to consult. his family party officials headed his advisors, but he seemed energized in the remarks he made after the mid terms because he sees these elections as an affirmation of his policies. he is, however, turning 80 years old, he still an unpopular president, so we might see a different decision from biden. he is by the way, holding a speech at the democratic national convention in about an hour's time from now. so let's see if he says anything on the subject there asked for trump maybe, but maybe not. you know, we've seen sources here in washington say that he is absolutely fuming over these mid term results. he's lashing out at republican party officials,

he's blaming them for backing the wrong candidates, like doctor or in pennsylvania, and to add insult to injury the governor of florida. rhonda santas is getting a lot of attention and the one re election easily. trump does not like being overshadowed, he's even threatened to release some what he called unflattering information on rhonda this. so all in all we had expected from to announce next week that he's running. there are reports however that you will pick g o p. officials are urging him to rethink so he is unpredicted unpredictable. brent, let's see what he decides. it briefly. we're on the boat still being counted there just quickly. some house race is still being counted, but you saw in your report 2 key states, arizona and nevada. i just saw that more than a $100000.00 votes still to be counted in nevada. and you also saw on that report george's heading to run off. so we will have to wait till december 6. well, to see what happens there. all right, patients and politics, strange boca was going through stuart w, so my son was granted. so me,

thank you. it has been more than 4 years since the saudi journalist jamal cas shogi was murdered in the saudi cancel it in is stem bought. he was there to collect the papers that he needed to marry his fiance, the turkish national hottie. she genius of the saudi crown prince. mom had been saw that he has denied ordering the killing of cas shogi. he later admitted, however, that it did take place under his watch. but to show geese, fiance, she doesn't buy any of that. she is continuing her campaign for justice, and she told the w's julia han that her world collapsed. when she found out what had happened to her fiance lou, i struggle with big pain in my life in my heart to my was home. he was a part of my life, my identity. when i lost him in this way, it changed my life completely. on the 2nd of october

2018 hattie to jane gets his fiancee. the saudi dissident yamaha shall g, was brutally murdered inside the saudi consulate in east amboy. they wanted him feel i am asking this question, lost his body. what happened to his body? from that day on to now, i'm fighting, i'm fighting for justice for jamal lou. had teacher had wanted to start a new life with her husband to be instead, she grieved and made a decision. then i told i can't see the site is assigned to alex. and from that day i thing my life

changed. and i put myself under this, it h, speaking up and saying the truth, my power is my words. me the gun, put it there, but i'll be to the teacher started to travel the world. she testified in front of the u. s. congress, the european parliament, the united nations human rights council. a un investigation found evidence that the saudi leadership was responsible for the killing of to mark a short jeans for some time, her teacher was certain that justice would prevail until she learned the meaning of re i'll politic in a weldon turmoil and hungry for energy resources. pariahs can become partners again . it will then easy to understand israel politic. it's was a huge,

disappointing for me. everyone knows, with a politic be fish. the couples on the banks of the bus for us, remind her teacher of her loss. but also of the fact that life is worth living and justice worth fighting for a researcher turns human rights defender a teacher jenkins has found new purpose in her life. speaking for those who are silenced, listening to those who are not heard. chris creek op water a need for our future is all humanity. more democracy mon human rights. not give up. that's why much and you can see a longer version of that report on d. w 's youtube channel. just go to youtube, dot com slash dw do. ah,

it's for it's now germany have announced their final $26.00 man squat for the upcoming world cup in could tart or yoga japanese hero from their victory at the 2014 world cup. made an unexpected return to the squad. after a 5 year i aid us freeman's nicholas full crew, received his 1st ever invitation to the national team. and another surprise was the inclusion of 17 year old. he might there use super mckoko from russia, dartmouth, germany's kick off. germany kicks off rather their campaign against japan on november 23rd, which is just around the corner. set

them up yet, and he's brought in a lot of these players now who are gambles? who's not really been in the school a lot before, and he's got young stop plays and jamal marcial and chi hobbits who could really set the work up a life if they get into form at the right point. but it's hard to predict. germany tend to do well at tournaments, but the moment i still have a lot of question marks,

even though they have one of the best squads in the tournament. and there's a lot going on of the pages will busy human rights controversy, human rights issue. however, you want to describe it in tar. what's the german squad? how are the dressing? yeah, so far there hasn't been a lot of collective noise that they haven't done. things like the australian national team releasing a statement as a team or denmark as well. care wearing certain t shirts and the like, but the flick addressed the human rights situation in this press conference today isn't on the stick. does via, it's very important on the one hand that we as the german football association have the chance to focus on the sport what. but at the same time, we also have to speak up about the human rights situation on the ground in cas event. so in kata for, we have to keep our eyes and our ears open, one off at the end of the day. that's also our task. and some things that we want to do is when we don't want to shy away from it. yes. so they don't want to shy

away from it, but i think germany, you know, flick definitely wants to just focus on the football. however, high profile plays like the captain, manuel neu has said he's going to be wearing a special captain's arm band with the words one love on them and loomed good. that's good. and he both came out criticising the guitar. well cup ambassador, who earlier last week called homosexuality damage in the mind. and both of them said this is not at all compatible with that world view and that they will continue to speak out during the tournament as well when they are in concert. so at the players, they're clearly outspoken for germany, but i do think the team is going to try and just sort of get on with the game once they're there. yeah. it's, i know a lot of people been wondering, maybe they're asking is, does fee for regret deciding it, but yeah, i'd say it's always 2020 max america is always think max protests as an indonesia have demanded further investigation into the police's conduct at

a match. there in october were at least a $130.00 people were killed in a stamp heat. thousands of football fans and family members gathered for a protest march through the city of milan. a government investigation included that excessive firing of tear gas was the main trigger. for the fatal stampede at the stadium, 6 people including police officers and organizers, are now facing criminal charges. 5 dozen pieces of art from palsy, song, vincent, bingo, and other revered artists have brought in a record one and a half $1000000000.00 at a new york auction. the highest winning bid was for a painting binds his on, which so you see right there for just under a $150000000.00. at night he made several other paintings of sold for more than a 100000000. buyers from around the world took part in the auction many by phone.

the collection was owned by paul allen and we list on one of the founders of microsoft. 20
