these fields near the ukrainian border. the search for answers continues. it was here that a missile came down on tuesday, killing 2 and sparking fears that the worn ukraine might escalate into a wider conflicts. had this been an intentional attack on nato member, poland. it could have triggered a military response by the alliance by analysis of these fragments, let war. so to conclude, that the missile was not launched by russia. who others to be sure. agatha, it was probably an es $300.00 rocket made in the soviet union, an old rocket. and there is no evidence that it was launched by the bush inside. it is highly probable. it was fired by ukrainian anti aircraft offences. and unfortunately, fell on our wits habit tree. russia on tuesday launched dozens of crews my cells

and drones at civilian targets in ukraine as president putin sheets to compensate for battlefield defeats with terror, was always ukrainian president vladimir zalinski denied that a ukrainian air defense. michelle had gone, of course he called for his own investigators to be granted access to the site range. couple ukrainian position is very clear. we strive to establish all the details for every fact. that is why we need our specialists to join the international investigation. and to get access to all the data available to our partners and to his sight of the explosion, mika, we will, in his remarks, the incident has not weakened the resolve of ukraine's key ally the united states. and we, the united states are determined to continue to support ukraine with the means to defend themselves for as long as it takes. but the end of the day,

ukraine will retain, will remain a free and independent country. will its territory intact. with nato unlikely to join the fight. ukraine will need all the material support it can get. one thing's for sure. this incident has highlighted just how easily the war in ukraine can spill over into neighboring countries. a reporter at yeah, gosh, manascale has visited that village near the polish ukrainian border where the missile exploded. he spoke to some of the residents there and sent us this report. ah, there is more and more police cars entering this side 2 days ago. a rocket road to residence of this polish village shavon. 6 this is a still side of the ongoing investigation. as you can see, there is a police. so there is also military presence. the area is cordoned off on. we are

actually standing some 400 meters away from the place where the rocket struck, killing 2 residents of this village. we were talking to people here and they told us that they are afraid that some accident like this could happen again. they are relieved that on the other hand, they are relieved that on that so this was probably an unfortunate accident and not a deliberate attack, because any escalation would mean even more danger for dam right here, right at the ukranian border. but ultimately, this small community, there is 400 people living here, and they are in grief. they knew the 2 men that were killed. and they said that they will now need time to process this terrible truck tragedy. and we have young philip schultz in care of earlier, i asked him why president zalinski was still blaming russia. i think the fact that it was probably an accident caused by ukrainian adie fence is not that damaging for

ukraine. every one in western countries and especially in poland, which is directly affected, agrees that the ultimate responsibility is with the russia without their invasion. none of this would have happened. but what surprises so some observer sir, is the harsh rhetoric from the ukrainian side, especially the absolute denial that it might have anything to do with the ukrainian forces. but if we look carefully at the statements, i think we're seeing a slow shift there in his latest remark, sir, president says lensky air has served, changed the wording a bit. he is speaking about russian aggression. crossing the border in a more general way now. and he focuses on the demands that the ukrainians should be part of the team or that carries out the investigation at the moment. and i think this is something that polish officials might be willing to meet him. now this of course happened with russia firing scores of missiles in white ukraine has been the

biggest round and missile strike since the start of the war. how are people there in key of coping? is what we have experienced here since tuesday has definitely been the the heaviest way for miss as strikes and since the beginning of the war. and this has led sir to a lot of power, cuts all over the country every day. life here is very much affected and the missile attacks don't stop and people are warned about more massive strikes in the coming hours and days. the focus at the moment is especially on the port city of odessa and the eastern city of ne pro, where at least 15 civilians have been injured in the past hours. i mentioned as power cuts and how are these strikes that have been crippling energy infrastructure? how, what are the stakes of that?

what are the implications of having these blackouts yet at least 15 power sides have been damaged in the past days. so this effect every day life a lot, even here in kia, if we still experience the regular power cuts. but what is really probably more worrisome, our remarks by international experts that those power cuts once again increased the risk of a nuclear accident. the reason is very simple. nuclear power plants don't only produce power, but they also need external power. so the power cards have once again become a safety issue here. thank you so much for that update at our correspondent young fellow shots in kiff a court is expected to deliver its verdict. this our in the m. h. 17 murder trial of 3 russians and a ukranian who were still at large. the malaysia airlines passenger jet was shot

down over eastern ukraine in 2014. no one on board survived an international investigation. establish that the plane was hit by a russian missile fired from separatist held territory in ukraine. the trial was being held in the netherlands, where most of the victims came from. the tree was planted at this memorial for each of the $298.00 victims of flight image. 17. 3 of them are for the family of pete plu. like most of the relatives, he's keen to hear the final verdict of the dutch court. we are waiting for a few for this for this further. it is for me and for almost looking, this is very, very important. the trial about the downing of m h. 17, as a test for the dutch justice system, 68 hearings, 70000 pages of documents and the elaborate reconstruction of the destroyed plane and a hanger in the netherlands. the suspects were military commanders, 3 russian,

and one ukrainian. they didn't take part in the proceedings. we have always known that the forshaw sprinkled will do their time. ah, my, and they are under the protection of 4 of the russian government. we know that her, but you know, it is for the border throws at an independent court who suffered it and the world will know was responsible. figuring out which type of rocket brought down the airplane and where it was fired from was the 1st hurdle. the 2nd was identifying the suspects here, the investigative website building had played a big role using open source information. you had more images with wreckage and that could establish which party actually being hit by shrapnel. you also have videos and photographs me shared of a book missile launcher being transported, that a lot of them then establish the route. so i will shoot towards the launch sites in international investigative team in the netherlands was adding more detail as where the dutch prosecutors. it was also especially difficult for the dutch court because

there was a politically charged trial. besides the, for suspects. the russian states seemed to be in the duck, though criminal trial really isn't about russia. and at the same time, indirectly. of course, a lot of these evidentiary questions concerned a role of russia really with regard to that book or where it was launched from and the role of russia in terms of having effect over on the separatist fighters. so indirectly, it's very much about russia, but russian never acknowledged its role. it really would have made a difference if her, if they said, sorry that they never did. and some of the families involved have never recovered from the tragedy war. still in grow chug, logical, or distress. ah, lost her job, she lost her companies or lost their families firmly shocked, torn apart. and they are still living as if with you as if it happened yesterday. for others, time has healed some of the pain and for them the verdict may go some way to

delivering justice. well, i'd like to hear more from our correspondent who filed that report. barbara hazel as at the court house where that verdict will be heard. ah barbara, had the trial started now more than 2 and a half years ago, that is a long time to wait for justice. what's the mood like where you are now? it's a long time, but on the other hand, you must consider. this is the biggest case the dutch justice system ever had to deal with. and if you compare it to international tribunals, war crimes tribunals, this is relatively fast. they've really done their best to sort of proceed as quickly as rapidly as they could. well, the 2 around 200 of the next of kin of the relative self, this tragedy, heaven did the mean time entered, the court houses the lawyers, their lawyers, and the one lawyer who is here to represent one of the accused. all of them are not here, they never appeared in court, of course,

and there will probably never caught, we don't know that. but the one was represented by a lawyer here and the presiding judge in just a few minutes will begin to read the verdict. expectations are high and even the chief prosecutor doesn't quite know where a will go. the main question here being, are the 4 accused really responsible for transporting that particular book? messiah was it fired from that particular point in east, in ukraine, and that was in the end, the one that brought on the plane. and if they are found guilty of mentions that these men are being tried in absentia, what does that mean for any potential verdict? it means nothing for the verdict. and if the judge comes to that, the presiding judge and the, and the other professional judges, this is a chamber, not a jury trial em. if they come to the conclusion that they are responsible and then

it will be a lifelong prison sentence. that's what the prosecution has demanded. now, whether they will ever go to prison, we don't know. but what it means, of course, is that an international arrest warren can be brought against them. and they will have to stay inside of russia for the rest of their days. plus, we don't know when and how the war between ukraine and russia will ever end. and they may infect at one point in later years, be handed over. this is totally open and do you think russia's invasion of ukraine has been destroyed? hopes are that those responsible will face any punishment and make yes, yes. and no. i mean, they can hide in russia, of course, in as long as this war is going on. there is no way that they would be handed over that they could be brought out. but we don't know what the future holds in. things might come to some radical changes maybe next year, maybe the year after, but for the relatives, the next of kin here. many of them say, as we have already heard, it is a kind of justice,

even if we don't get hold of these people to see that a court in an open and fair trial has come to the conclusion that they are the ones responsible. and they are at least theoretically being punished or fail. thank you so much for that. reporting will come back to you when we have that long awaited verdict for now though, let's go to some other stories that are making world news headlines right now. ukraine us as the deal that allows it to export grain through the black sea will be extended by 4 months. turkey, which helped a broker. the agreement confirmed the initiative will continue under existing terms . un secretary general, antonio good to hash has welcomed that move. australia is seeking international assistance as it responds to flooding on its eastern coast. the state of new south wales is worse affected with dozens of towns swamped and cut off from highways and bridges. heavy rifle has brought frequent floods over the last 2 years.

well, in the united states, republicans have won the house of representatives after last week's mid term elections. the result gives the party the power to block jo biden's agenda for the next 2 years of his presidency. bo biden's party, the democrats, maintained their narrow senate majority dashing republican hopes of controlling both chambers of congress victory for republicans who have taken control of the u. s. house of representatives. but with the when narrow and their majority slim legislating and governing could prove difficult. power in congress is now split with democrats in control of the senate. the u. s. president joe biden signaled his willingness for co operation, stating i congratulate leader mccarthy on his house. majority and am ready to work together for american families. republican house leader kevin mccarthy is tip to become house speaker. one of the most powerful positions in washington had of the

house when the congressman from california won the nomination from his party. i told you it just took a little while. well, good evening. i'm proud to announce the era of one party democrat, rule in washington is washington now has a check and balance the american people have a say in their government. and this new republican leadership team is ready to get to work, to put america back on the right track. that track will likely include trying to cut government spending and tightened border security. mccarthy has vowed to investigate the u. s. withdrawal from afghanistan and the finances of the president, son, hunter biden. republicans now have the power to oppose the president's agenda for the final years of his term. but the president also has a veto over legislation proposed by the congress house. republicans will also have

the next presidential elections in 2024 in mind when it comes to their legislative decisions. mccarthy is close to former president donald trump, who has just announced his bid for a 2nd presidential term. america's come back starts right now. but with many republicans blaming trump for the parties worse than expected performance in the midterms, mccarthy may want to put some political distance between himself and the former president, and am always very pleased welcome stacy prevents into the studio for analysis. stacy put this into perspective for us. how much power have the republicans gained by getting majority in the house of representatives? well, i guess it depends on what they've learned from the selection and dependence. and young people broke hard for the democrats. they care about abortion rights, they care about the environment, they care about democracy. and so as in this piece that just put aired we,

we heard the talk of an investigation of hunter biden. well, that's a loser for a lot of voters in the u. s. they want to know how they're going to be able to pay for, for food, how they're going to be able to pay for gas. and so these kinds of issues are, are loser for the republican party and, and just to be clear, there were so many candidates who were presented by donald trump, where they were re litigating the 2020 election and where they were talking about these culture war issues voters said enough, we want to see people work together to make america better for our republicans, united on this issue. they have a majority, but it is, it is a narrow majority. it was a narrow victory. do you think the party will be able to unite to get its policies past? the problem is the much the majority that they have is so slim that it's almost a win for the democrats man. so what, let me just play this out for you. so we have the republicans and they're split.

half of the party supports tromp and they have a more of what people feel like is a hard line view. and then you have other people who say, you know what, the republican party has gone off course. so it's going to be harder for the republican leader in the house to get his team together. the democrats are mostly united, especially in the house, but in the, but with the republicans, it's going to be a harder task. right. and what will this then mean for president biden's legislative agenda? well, he's made a very clear that he thinks that what he's done in the past 2 years is a win. and so he wants to keep going on with that. but of course, he's going to have some road blocks because of the way that this has played out with the legislature going to the republicans. but like i said, it's not an easy victory for the republicans because they don't necessarily have

the numbers because they don't have a unification. ok, well now that biden of the democrats won't control both houses of congress. do you think it's possible that we will see the president focusing more on foreign policy, which is traditionally an area where the executive branch has more power? sure, i'm and he wants the us to be a leader when it comes to the climate. and so yes, he wants to be able to show that the, the united states is a partner that their foreign allies can depend on. so that's something that he's definitely going to be pushing for in the month than years ahead. all right, thank you so much for that. that's stacy evans with our election team, get to see as well as the u. n. climate summit in egypt near as its end world leaders have been making major pledges on climate action. i charm will shape brazil's president elect louisa nazi lula. da silva promise to crack down on deforestation in the amazon. but delegates are yet to agree a deal over compensation for poor countries that are suffering. the damaging

effects of climate change or rock is one of those countries that could benefit from a loss and damage funds. the country is reeling from the effects of climate change . sandstorms are frequent and lakes have dried up as has much of its agricultural land. this summer, iraq's gazelles were the 1st victims of the drought that has swept the country for 3 years. they had no more grass, no foliage for shade. dozens perished. close by one of iraq's many dry lakes. the sour lake was a national landmark. hydrologists are hon. i'll how far g often brought his students here to the water the drying up of the saw were lake is primarily a consequence of climate change in iraq. the lack of rain and increased evaporation,

which more, more than 2000 wells have recently been drilled in the area though swells are meant for agriculture, but that didn't help iraq last half of it, agricultural land to the desert this year. on some days, temperature is reached and unbearable. 55 degrees. thousands of farmers have left their villages in southern iraq. you see it. the country is desolate. the earth is full of salt. we've become poor. we want to go away, but no one will take us in anywhere else. the legendary palm trees of southern iraq are just a memory on the border between iraq and iran. her son, her little from the university of basrah,

explains how yvonne has diverted multiple rivers into its own territory. and damn them up also responds to climate change. that means that almost no fresh water flows into iraq any more if you took a picture here 40 years ago, it would have been dark green. all kinds of palm trees grew here with expensive unique dates and gardens full of citrus fruits. ah, but dat in early summer, the water in the tea grease receded so much that people were able to stand in the river. the city choked on sandstorms. climate experts say they would be more and more each year. while downstream on the persian gulf, there's less and less fresh water from iraq's rivers. while more salt water is

drifting in i expect sea levels to continue to rise due to climate change, and the land here is not high enough. in less than 30 years, parts of southern iraq could be inundated by the sea, underscoring the importance of those discussions in egypt. we're going to change gears now or if you enjoyed the netflix show dark, we do have some good news for you. it's a german craters are back with a new mystery series that combines european history with fantasy 18 at 99 is a multi lingual drama set on an ocean liner. bringing immigrants from europe to america. they're dreaming of a better future. but then something unexpected happens on grouped in the mid atlantic, a migrant steamer receives an impossible distress call. 6 hours ago we received a message. we believe this comes from the prometheus hitting the passengers ester alive, equity. so begins 18. 99. the new netflix mystery series,

where nothing is as it seems, the series had its world premiere in berlin, the creators see the show as a metaphor for europe itself. we thought we really want to take a look at europe and just take it, put it on a ship in a confined space. lots of ocean around, can't escape. and i have like a little bit of an experiment, almost like a lavatory experiment. how people cope with situations when they're not able to speak the same language. $1899.00 was also a technical experiment. one of the 1st t v shows to shoot entirely in a new volume studio using cutting edge digital technology. with st. his surrounding a big giant cylinder, panama screen, and then stage retail in the middle. and it's operated by about 20 technicians. ah,

it's quite something to look at and anyway. and it, it does look amazing. transported anywhere. 1899 dazzles with its visual style. even as its twisty plot will leave, many viewers baffled but fans of med, of mysteries should dive in at things update at this hour. stay tuned for conflicts and with tim sebastian coming up next. i'm claire richardson in for lynn. thanks so much for watching. ah, with
