surveying the damage from another deadly attack on ukrainian homes. emergency teams came the wreckage and pick up the paces. this time it's bodies being recovered from the rabble nay, beside the blast hit as many would have been sleeping as well. or i heard a strike around 3 am, which i heard 3 explosion that i realized it was somewhere near by a book and nothing else. then in the morning, i found out that it had happened in this area love for this one. so what are you in 3 families used to live in these homes, but suffer asia has been pummeled by russian attacks and recent month and locals don't know who was home during the latest blast. it's the 2nd time the city was hit with how we surviving. there's nothing else left to do. here is the way we are surviving, living our lives with the devastation. here is the result of another barrage of

russian muscles, battering ukraine, explosions, injuring people, and denise pro ha, keith and odessa general. what? she's got the nervous dish. another russian terrorist attack has just occurred this after this morning. dozens of missiles civilian sites of the main target line. russia is waging war on electricity and heat for people by blowing up power plants and other energy facilities. and eliana, corbett, russia confirming that its defense force het targets and denise pro ends up a region, regions that ukrainian civilians continue to fall victim to the attacks which show no sign of easing as the warn me as its 10th month. all right, let's go now to our corresponding economy. he is in southern ukraine this evening. nick, it's good to see you. what more do we know about these latest attacks that we've seen today? we've even heard from the kremlin spokesman dodge best gulf basically. you know, black and white, putting it out there,

that russia is going to continue attacking ukraine's energy infrastructure. he says that to make ukraine come to the negotiating table, basically making it clear that that if you kind doesn't come to cut some kind of deal to give russia the kind of breather that it wants given about it doing on the battlefield. that these attacks will continue now, which is called says this is about attacking ukraine's ability to fight war. but i think, you know, lots of experts of alice are saying at a time where russia has so far, failed to destroy any significant amount of western provided weapons. so far we have no confirmation of even a single high miles unit being destroyed. it's also much easier to attack power stations, transformers and other bits in structure that are very difficult to defend and ongoing new initiative. we, we have to remember what time of the year it is. winter is quickly approaching, the temperatures are going down and it's this coming as russia is targeting power

grids, heating facilities. i'm wondering how is the morale of just everyday ukrainians, knowing that they may not even be able to turn the heat on in their hopes. when you might be able to see that where i'm now, it's pacey, ship blowing, a gale. this is really, you can really feel the weather has kind of gone up again in terms of kind of wintery temperatures and kind of think being difficult to be outside, to not have heating to not have electricity up until the last few days. it was a can remarkably warm autumn, lot of sun and compared to the high temperature. so definitely this is going to bite more in the days and weeks to come. and we're seeing that the energy networks here that we're doing so well, we're extraordinarily resilient up to now we've had hundreds and hundreds of russian missiles hit ukrainian targets in recent weeks. but up till now it's always been a matter of hours or at most a day or 2 before things more or less go back to normal. that is definitely no longer the case. lots place now deal with a day or 2 of no electricity or electricity coming on, maybe for an hour or 2 at

a time. but basically, power cuts becoming the norm. the exception of being near the norm rather than exception. or even now people are wholly up remarkably well and are quite defined. this is something that is basically involving the whole country. there is no place in ukraine right now. that is not affected by this. that can forget about the war. i think it was important to him, but i think these images of ukrainian civilians in kind of dark cold apartment blocks trying survived this also really rallying interest in this war. and keeping this on the front pages in countries far away from this conflict. and we're, we're seeing greater willingness by western countries to send weapons to ukraine. so this may end up being a case of the russians shooting themselves in the foot by actually generating a lot more simply, lot more interest for ukraine. and it's cause i know that you just spent a couple of days in deliberating, city of her son, which is also in the, in the south. but what were people they are telling you with his extraordinary optimism and confidence that harrison is not in ukrainian hands. and will stay that way, even though the russian army is just over the river. a few comments away. we were

near the main bridge across the other bank that was blown up by russian forces. they left got a song and there was definitely a lot of ought to reform coming in. we saw some kind of shrapnel ammunition, some cosette musicians exploding not very far away from us. so there's definitely a not a safe place for civilians to be before that you constantly meet people who've just come back with people who are planning to come back. who have traveled back from europe in countries where they are living in safety. desperate to get back as soon as they can. so there is extraordinary optimism there and a kind of feeling of the, the wind behind them. as for the reality, while they're still living without power, without water, there's no real kind of plan as to when that's going to come back. and there's definitely a sense the russians might want to take more revenge for these kind of cumulation. they be having the battlefield and thought, you know, attacking steps on in a way that would cc it, you know, levels in the way that we've seen him variable though and elsewhere. it's very difficult situation, but pretty extraordinary morale among the civilians that have stayed there for 8 months. those are now trying to get back to w. nick connelly. nick, excellent,

reporting. we'll let you go inside. now we can tell the winds, getting up winter is coming. thank you. a court in the netherlands to day convicted 3 men in absentia for their role in shooting down malaysia airlines flight image, 17 over ukraine. 8 years ago of the men included 2 former russian intelligence agents, plus a ukrainian separatist leader. a 4th defendant was acquitted. may remember, flight image, 17 was shot down over eastern ukraine, killing all 298 people on board. a verdict years in the making. after 68 hearings and 70000 pages of documents, a dutch court has issued its judgment on the downing of malaysian airlines flight. mh 17. the rebel is from order. the court is of the opinion that m a 17 crashed you to the firing of a book me sail from

a field in the pepper mice care region at oscar, full. and as a consequence, all the 283 passengers and 15th crew lost their lives. the court ruled that the passenger jet was brought down by a russian made missile supplied from russia and fired by an armed separatist group . under russian control. for military commanders were accused of murder, though none took part in the proceedings. 3 were found guilty. yes. one ukrainian and 2 russians. the verdict means life imprisonment. but it's unlikely that any of them will see the inside of a dutch prison. for some relatives of those killed in the attack, that was never the point who did anything with so they will be here time. we notice you can be, you can read voted to help us you know that any bit of good.

think this the most important for other grieving families, the ruling brings little comfort. you've got to remember while we were in court today, we still have to go home and said disable has grave out our little ones and nothingness . not never going to go away. that feeling that you know, no matter what the court says or what happens in coal, i thought still or is gonna be the case. though the ruling cannot restore those who were lost. there is hope it can bring at least some justice for the victims and their families. ok, let's take a look now. some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. u . s. house of representatives. speaker, nancy pelosi says that she will step down from her role in january when the republican party takes control of the chamber. belushi is 82 years old. she 1st took the office, a speaker of the house, back in 2007 presiding over both impeachment of former president donald trump

ration. the democrats narrowly lost control of the house to their republican opponents in man in the mid terms earlier this month. at least 2 people were killed after a multi story building under construction collapsed on the outskirts of my robi, 3 others were rescued from a nearby family home. it's the 2nd such incident in less than a week in the kenyan capital, where developers often ignore government building regulations. mean mars military regime is releasing about 6000 prisoners to markets national holiday. next week. a following the announcement relatives gathered outside of a prison in yan gone. among those being freed are a former british ambassador, a japanese journalist, and an australian economist. hundreds of mourners have attended the funeral of a protester killed by security forces in the western iranian city of bu,

con. the demonstrator was a monk. the victims of what human rights groups describe is one of the most violent knights in the government's latest crack down. several people, including a 9 year old boy, were shot dead across the country. despite the danger for testers, continue taking to the streets, to demand reforms, and for more i'm janelle by cumberland martinez, senior lecturer and international relations at the university of sussex. it's good to have you back on the program again, the crack down on this week's protest. it seems to be especially violent, but the demonstrators that they don't seem to be giving up at all. what's your take on how the situation is developing? yes. i mean, if i may, i would like to stop by saying that if, if the slogan about anything to go by the demand of the protest as seems

a 9 weeks ago, it's consistently about a change of the regime kind of bringing down the climate republic as a whole slogans chance against the supreme leader and basically the very tenants of this let me go public. so please reform that slightly on the kinds of are presenting what, what the test is want. but in terms of the escalation, yes, i mean to yesterday, to then tomorrow is the anniversary of the 3 days of process in 20. 19 in november when by, according to reuters 1500 people were killed over 3 days in iran during a series of protest across their own. so people have been mocking that anniversary across their on. and of course, also mocking default is this of many protests which have been killed during the late this trying to protest. so it seems that protests have escalator, then spread and actually even smaller towns and villages and are joining that protest and according to reports in cities like around the capital city itself,

people from different generations. i mean, all the people also joining with the protest, something which is quite new given that until recently, mostly younger people were joining. so there seems to be making results to, to more violence using combat ammunition, straits. the start of the process. as a result, we have more and more casualties, and these purchase, as you say, they are spreading and this is not a localized event. what does that mean for the regimes ability then to continue the correct doubt in for police to control this? indeed, i mean, especially in certain areas, i mean from what we hear from, for example, the citizen, cuz this phone will con itself to which you referred. it seems that during night

the 15 basically in the hands of the people and during the day the, the regime troops kind of regaining control. and the similar situation seems to be the case in some other towns which shows kind of the erosion or exhaustion of a regime troops that are also report which are remarkable in some sense that the government has evacuated. some of the quite strategic point on top of high mountains in the border ages of kurdistan, where the military troops have been based off for a very long time to deal with could position groups and evacuated them to the city, you know, to, to kind of track down on the protest of leaving those areas kind of undefended, you know, increasing use of come by the munition. and what i just described in terms of kind of re deployment of troops is just that the government is struggling with actually managing and controlling the spread and intensity of the protest come run month with the university of sussex. mr. hunting has always we appreciate your time and

your insights tonight. thank you. thanks. well, it is crunch time at the cop $27.00 climate summit in shadow. shake egypt. the conference is scheduled to end on friday. and negotiators from 200 plus countries are still trying to agree on the final statement, addressing some very big issues among them, how to limit global warming, and how rich countries can aid poor countries who are, which are already facing the brunt of climate change. when it comes to the effects of climate change that cop $27.00 delegates are battling against few things stand out for the public, like polar bears losing the arctic ice. they depend on or the pacific island nation of 2 volumes, seeing its islands potentially overcome by rising seas dol. oh, fun won't. pacific greetings from w 2 values. foreign minister spoke from a digitized version of what could be 2 values,

1st landmass to go under the online. we have lots them up to the television. we must start doing so today. otherwise, within a lifetime to well, we'll only exist to you to follow officials at the global summit point to the long held goal of limiting global warming to $1.00 degrees celsius above pre industrial age levels. scientists and activists say catastrophe looms of temperatures rise more than that, the planet has already warmed by one point. one degrees like the u. s. behind president joe biden. and the european union insist there holding firm to the $1.00 and are pushing china and other resistant nations to include the $1.00 degree figure in the climate summits, final agreement not back pedaling to 2 or even 2.5 degrees. experts say that what's required is a phase out of the use of fossil fuels,

the types that release carbon dioxide into the air that then traps heat in the atmosphere causing global warming. but a late draft of the declaration now calls for efforts to phase down as opposed to phase out fossil fuels. i think when we need at this crucial time in empathy, we need solidarity. we need to think about our wills in a sense of taking care of um, a well another sticking point to the concluding statement. delegates from developing countries like nigeria and pakistan, which endured extraordinary flooding this year, or somalia and madagascar suffering from major drought. the poor countries are calling for richer, more polluted countries to pay financial relief to nations that field a pain is climate change, but are responsible for comparatively little of what causes it. it's a massive and controversial matter that rich countries like the us are concerned,

will set too much precedent. even this climate, meanwhile, to follow officials say that without massive efforts to tackle the causes of climate change, setting a precedent of any kind will no longer matter in i'm joy now by climate. justice activists, patient novel kalu from fridays for future uganda patient is good to have you on the program. caprice. oven is supposed to end tomorrow based on what you have heard so far. what are you feeling optimistic about the future of the planet? are you more optimistic or pessimistic? ok, thank you very much. i don't want to say like a mistake about the future because 27 has been just like the other quote, the quote that i have in that 26 copes we have not seen like action and it is the same thing. it does have played you and targeting 23rd to 2015 and in that

price is happening now. and right now i don't know what it's going to come out from . i've been in the session rooms, but we really think it is going to fit, but they've already, it has been already and we have seen us and the people at the front end of the climate crisis defined as of the time being i live in your negotiations so it really don't have the hope and from your business. what, what would you like to see happen by tomorrow? what would be a best case scenario for you for, you know, to bring this summit to annette? well i, what i really would want to hear from what he does is the fact that they are ready to pay for the lows and that needs to have put to the most. but in our book,

countries to that, the booking will nations i like in the global south africa and the rest. and the other thing i want to read is that, that he does are going to fulfill the ages and they are going to come me to i mean, every means he does have been pledging every time. we don't want to hear a pledge is this time round. i want implementations. let them try to keep 1.5 alive . other than like, $2.00 degrees will be held to us to developing countries like ours, in your opinion, is the mechanism in place. if you, if you did have the wealthier countries, if they were putting the money there, as they promised, is the mechanism in place in these vulnerable countries for that money to be spent as it's been, or you're more forward to be spent wisely. i will, that is really

a nice question to me. i remember when i was, i made so many. does he go 27 and the right. what i've been telling them is to this matter which is supposed to be, because when it's given to me, this money is always going to benefit only the reach, but let them put them in to them. but, and i will communities to organizations to people that have been communities and money should be distributed respectively or trust patients in interest to distribute that money responsibly. i mean, we hear all the time all over the world. people say that they don't trust me, they don't trust politicians because of corruption. for example, who would you trust to take care of that money? to me that if i can trust to take care of this money, other people who are really fighting down the organizations that are doing what he needs to see, people say i never treat people are leaving in good health the,

the point of not your resources organizations i wouldn't select like, right, if you tell me, but those organizations that environmental organizations that really understand how people are living don't their patients, noble kalu from parties for future uganda patients. it's been very nice talking with you. we certainly appreciate your passion and wish you all the best as well. thank you. we're time is running out for those countries on the front lines of the climate crisis. countries such as madagascar where low rainfall has led to severe drought. the w audrey increase, visited a town in the south, where the situation is particularly bad. nearly one and a half 1000000 people are dependent on a there and many are living in famine like conditions. this is man, i'm volvo river or what's left of it for 2 years. residents of cio may have to dig

in the river bed, their main source of water that we are truly suffering my salad . and now it's really dry, dry, dry no, no rainfall at all. and says, the rainy season should have already started, but once again, people are still waiting, lifted. i and her family left their village and came to town because of the drought back home. everything had run dry. but here things were not much better. yes, it is a tiny house, but this is what we can afford to rent. our house is in the village far from here. but we come here because we need access to water. we brought all the kids here and now they work as water carriers. we do have the gentleman on the run, i fetching water and selling it is their only option of earning money for food

every morning. this is the reality for tens of thousands in the region who live in villages without access to water. they have to transport their water containers to water sources, then fill them up and bring them back to their villages, of course, at a price. and it's often children who are doing this work. skipping school southern madagascar has always been poorer and dryer than the rest of the islands. the reason droughts combined with decades of neglect by the central government, has aggravated the situation. we meet the regional governor, he says their plans to build a road and a massive water pipe to bring in water from areas better off. but he can say when you can expect that those problems to be a reserve within ah, one year or 2 years for the last a decades, nothing has been done. and this is the 1st government. this is the 1st regime which is taking care of their whole of

a problem. he says residents are also to blame because for generations they have been cutting down the forests in the area. beckett manambra over river lyford. i says she has no energy to think about who or what is responsible for the crisis they handle with them. sometimes the children don't get any money until the end of the day. so late at night. sometimes we don't eat the whole day, we just stay hungry. then i just search the countess fruits. now we don't have anything to cook, so i need to go and look for cactus very so we have a meal units, laundry in. so once again, she ventures out in the heat without shoes looking for something to eat, trying to make ends meet, finding food and water is all life, as i can think of every day. and here is a quick reminder of our top story. why she has watch the new way, the missile attacks across ukraine, killing at least 4 people injuring many more. the missiles are damaged more of the
