ah, ah ah ah, this is the w use life from birth then deadlock at the called 27 climate summit in egypt as talk center their final day agreement on you. goals seems a long way off. an unexpected proposal for the e. you could see a deal time compensation for climate disasters to tough a pollution cutting measures island paradise being lost to the sea. a warning of
8:01 am
what will come if climate change continues on checked. russia launches new attacks on cities across ukraine as winter closes in russian forces target. you praise the energy grid again, doping out now for millions and it's kind of repairs. do we'll come look at the micro work is behind the construction of 8 you stadiums and why human rights groups demand compensation for ah, i've been phys all and welcome. it's crunch time at the top $27.00 climate summit in egypt. delegates is supposed to wrap up their talks today. negotiators though we're still trying to agree on the final statement, addressing several 40 issues. one is compensation for countries hit by climate
8:02 am
disasters. but there could be movement on that after a surprise also from the european union, linking financial aid to tougher emissions cuts vulnerable nations sample, where he made it clear time to act is running out 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. follow 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 on line. we have not stepped up to the television. we must start doing so today. otherwise, within a lifetime to well, we'll only exist t to value officials at the global summit point to the long held goal of limiting global warming. to 1.5 degrees celsius above pre industrial age levels. scientists
8:03 am
and activists say catastrophe looms of temperatures rise more than that, the planet has already warmed by 1 point one degrees. i like the u. s. behind president joe biden, and the european union insist there holding firm to the 1.5 and are pushing china and other resistant nations to include the 1.5 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 what we need at this crucial time in
8:04 am
empathy, we need solidarity. we need to think about our wills and a sense of taking care of i'm a little 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 polluting countries to pay financial relief to nations that field a pain 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, 2 valuable officials say that without massive efforts to tackle the causes of climate change, setting a precedent of any kind will no longer matter. b, w, excited report as a garage and is following the summit for us facing down instead of phasing out
8:05 am
fossil fuels. that doesn't sound like progress low enough for even where the latest draft is even at. for the most recent things we're hearing out it's, i'm in the drop decision that should in theory be finalized and couple of days that, that talks about phasing out on a bait coal power. it doesn't really mention oil and gas, which are 2 of the big yield kind of heating the planet making all these extreme weather events worse. and so one suggestion has been to say to face down all of the things, and i mean there's some back in india pushing for that that you and us of indicated they was such a such a wording. but the scale of what they actually mean that really captured in that right. so, so actually stop the planet from eating to stop all these extra weather events getting was to stop to bother with. we've just seen being kind of flooded by the rising sea levels. essentially, all fossil fuels need to be phased out with a very few exceptions where technologies kind of capture the carbon coming out of
8:06 am
them, could still be used them for making things like cement and steel that's seen of quite central for power plants. it's really not. and so in times of can just to give us a scale of this, according to the intentional, the international energy agency by 2035. if we do follow a kind of pathway, that means that wildly does meet that climate target on, on that promise of than just 5 percent of electricity will be made by biting fossil gas. but some little over a decade. ok, well let's list into what some of the delegates have been saying because this is very urgent for many countries involved in these negotiations. it is evidently clear that at this late stage of a car 27 process, there are still a number of issues where progress remains lacking. i am frustrated that political commitment has not yet been translated into political action. we are out of time
8:07 am
and we're out of money. we have patience. at some point we will have to leave the all the technical discussions behind us and start start looking for political common ground. and i hope this, the situation will occur very quickly because we have so little time left. and how do you reach political, common ground when there are so many interests involved? so many different interests and, and then something like 600 fossil fuel lobbyists registered for such a summit. it's tricky. and so, i mean, these lobbyists aren't necessarily the ones actually in the negotiating chambers kind of behind closed doors. but the influences reaches one much more widely than that, right? so a lot of the governments are heavily influenced and that ranges from countries that kind of just growing their economies to the biggest historical polluters. and that's something that's very well documented. so the latest big reviewable climate
8:08 am
science literature from the intergovernmental panel on climate change. and it's not just enough to kind of create clean alternatives to the carbon, i think, the economy and it energy and everything. it also requires overcoming these vested interest groups. and so at a summit like this, there is huge pressure for protecting from oil producing countries to not mention oil, that huge pressure when it comes to things like meat not be talking about kind of skating down the amount of beef wheat. and so all of these kind of different policy that national governments don't want to kind of endangered the that domestic industry as well. i think the heavily fort over and finding common ground within that is difficult and people just don't want to change it. i mean, shaking up the system could actually save us so much money besides saving the planet and our health and al features. exactly. i mean, it's something that just doesn't really line up between what you're hearing from
8:09 am
the scientists and the experts and was actually playing out on the ground. a huge and big fan of school. these benefits and kind of a very kind of a job in the time to basically mean that things we do to stop biting fossil fuels help in a 1000000 other ways. so you have cleaner s, you're not dying from lung cancer. all these, like you have from your economies because a less rely on importing energy from different countries of the thing with the energy crisis in europe right now. so the whole host of other things that would happen if we did what we needed to do for was lead us to be well, let's hope they're listening into this talk. i did, roger, thank you very much. really interesting stuff. russia has launched another wave of missile attacks across ukraine, killing at least 4 people and injuring many more. keep says the strikes were mainly directed at power and heating facilities and come as much of the agencies. it's 1st significant. so full president for ms. lewinsky says bolton, 10000000000 ukrainians are currently without electricity. surveying the
8:10 am
damage from another deadly attack on ukrainian homes, emergency teams. com, the wreckage and pick up the paces this time it's bodies being recovered from the rabble. ne, beside the blast hit as many would have been sleeping as will or i heard a strike around 3 hours, which i heard 3 explosion that i realized it was somewhere near by appointment. 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 hill, if you 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 mussels, battering ukraine, explosions, injuring people, and denise pro ha,
8:11 am
keith and odessa general. what is he's got there is dish to 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. in elliot court, russia confirming that its defense force hit targets, and the denise pro ends up a regia regions that ukrainian civilians continue to fall victim to the attacks which show no sign of easing as the warney as its 10th month. mike martin is war studies senior visiting fellow at kings college landed a war on electricity and hate. how clever a strategy is that to make territorial guys? good morning. it's not actually it. russia is largely fighting a defensive war at the moment. they are very keen to shore up deposition over the
8:12 am
winter. i think they're aware that ukraine will be continuing to push forward and attack over the winter. and so what they're doing by targeting civilian infrastructure, which is by the way, a war crime is. it basically means that the ukrainian government have to focus on delivering power to the civilians. rather than spending that energy to paring suits and motion positions. how can support us abroad allies of ukraine to been sending weapons try to support or help the millions of ukrainians without power right now? it's very difficult if not impossible, which is why, probably why the russians are doing it. what's happening is that the infrastructure of the power grid substations transmitters transmission lines, as well as some power generation, are being hit and damaged. and obviously this infrastructure take years to build in
8:13 am
many cases. so what the ukrainians are going to be able to do is repair small parts of it. and it is possible to provide pinprick power in places like hospitals, by using generators, but the vast mass of the population. 10000000 people, prisons, he said. freight is going to be when to largely without power for many of them and winter with very dim prospects. what's going to give in this war to see peace talks? i'm afraid that i'm not sure that we are going to see the stores the ukrainians have stated that their aims are to remove russian forces from the territory of ukraine, which is completely reasonable. and the russians have, as we've seen, annexed several of those territories, and claims them as russian. so those are mutually incompatible aims. i also would like to make the point, i think if we, if we rushed to pace now as attractive as
8:14 am
a target, that is, we may well be storing out problems for future war in 5 or 10 years because the question would be settled. but in the meantime, these missiles strikes on power infrastructure on civilians on cities across ukraine. continue and seem to only intensify yes, and i'm afraid they are going to continue the winter. we are war is not a nice thing. it sounds like a very obvious statement that sometimes the rush to secure peace to avoid the horrors of war. stores are problems for future rules. and i think that's the situation that we're in now. mike martin at kings college london, thank you very much for your analysis. thank you very much. a good time for some other stories making use. malaysia has back to dodge courts life sentence in absentia to, to russian intelligence agents and ukrainian separatist leader helped down on the
8:15 am
laser rail lines. ukraine in 2014. the plane was hit by a russian miss r 5 from territory in ukraine, held by pro bosco separatists. the kremlin has rejected the rule in japan's prime minister told reporters that a ballistic missile fired from north korea likely landed in japanese waters. the presumed test would be the 2nd in 2 days. john gang has warned it would take fiercer action if the united states continue to strengthen alliances in the region . hi must officials in the gaza strip say at least 21 people were killed in a fire in a small building in jeopardy of refugee can president would have buses and his condolences to every friday day of morning this week runs protests entered the 3rd month with deadly clashes and the street violence continues across the country. the demonstrations with spots by the death of a young woman in police custody, arrested for allegedly fighting to where her head scarf, correct. like
8:16 am
a few rolls being held for yet another demonstrator killed by security forces. ah hundreds gathered in the western arabian city of pecan on thursday for the funeral of a protester killed the night before. human rights groups say protests in the islamic republic have been at their most violent in recent nights, wednesday, so deaths and various locations in the country, south and west. among the victims, 2 boys, 114 years old. the other just 9 in the city of easy gunman on motor bikes killed several people. state media describe the incident as a terrorist attack. however, eye witnesses claim security forces opened fire on protesters. but despite the danger, demonstrators came out to protest again on thursday. many were commemorating those
8:17 am
killed in the so called bloody november protests of 2019 back, then authorities cracked down on people protesting against rising fuel prices. but these protests sparked by the death of 22 year old martha armine showed no signs of dying down into hon. people were filmed in a subway station chanting. i'm a free woman. you other pervert. you are the hor moment before they chased away. it appears despite the danger. iranians are still willing to risk everything for a bright future. the woke up kick something cut out sunday more than a decade. millions of my co workers have toiled to build 8 stadiums a renovated airport and a completely new public transportation system. that human rights group say cutters,
8:18 am
migrant workers are often forced to labor under extremely poor conditions. they demand in compensation. there's never been a world cup like this one, the 1st in the world, boasting a state of the art stadiums, by far the most expensive tournaments in fi, fi history and the most controversial one for years human rights organizations have criticize the working conditions on top construction side, thousands of migrant workers suffered wage theft, paid extortionate recruitment fees, or even died under unexplained circumstances. my can be dolly worked as a security guard and cut off for 3 years. the kenyans spent a month in a doha jail. after exposing how cut are treat, it's migrant workers crunch living conditions like 6810 people depending on how general employees feeling and not wanting. i was
8:19 am
calling to because i live alone supposed to be working as well as over time. like frank companies are looking an example $1240.00 now and national trade unionists. deed moshef. i've heard such accounts when he travelled to cut out to examine the country's working and living conditions. the german acknowledges that come to us government recently introduced some more work of friendly legislation. according to chef, however, many of those improvements only exist on paper cut tom was cut off simply needs to better control the reforms it has initiated. we need many more inspectors. we need to much more drastic penalties if employers do not comply with the new lawson. and that's missing so far though in that said, on does field besides us government admits that there are still some deficit. but it also complains that the country is being treated unfairly. well, i'm not claiming that person, but it's a journey that we will, we will,
8:20 am
right. let's be realistic and come down rather than just jump into the way so that we just talk about him. but we all respect it, but we need to be a bit, you know, modest about the human rights groups have let demands for fee find cut out to create a compensation fund for migrant workers to remedy abuses during world cup preparations . but cut us government has already rejected such demands, calling them the publicity done they brought back from dw sports joins as they were just days away from the world cup. has the world been taken over by woke up fever? no, not particularly. and of course, as we saw, there's a lot of controversy around this world cup, and that has put a pretty big wrong in putting a damper on excitement the migrant labor issues. here are the questions of labor conditions and guitar,
8:21 am
human right issues in the country as well at really kind of tone down the usual pre world cup buzz that you'd expect. i think also there are some sort of logistical issues. it's during the middle of the european season, so it feels a bit rushed to rebrand this video games just just a week ago. so it kind of feels almost dug nowhere, no time to build up excitement. and of course, in the northern hemisphere, it's the 1st winter world cup. so that's where we'll for some parts of the world. but for the majority of the planet, this is the kind of new experience. true, usually the streets a buzzing here, but a lot of people don't even what want to watch the world cup this year. so the human rights issues, but also i for fans who are interested in the world cup and want to actually go and see it. especially l g, b, t, q, fats. what, what's the situation like there in cutter? yeah, i mean, homosexuality is criminalized and tournament organizers. have given kind of vague assurances about the if the a fans that are planning on attending and i do think with so much attention on the
8:22 am
world cup, it's relatively unlikely that visiting fans are going to get in too much trouble. i think it's more like to be likely to be a potential issue is for tyree residents themselves, if they get involved in protests, if they're caught breaking the law, i can imagine repercussions could be a lot bigger. but it's also a question that players have wrangled with as well. england has started a one love campaign where there's a rainbow armed in that captain's wearing a show of solidarity. but it's also unclear just how many captains and teams will actually wear these. we have a clip here from, you got lucky, the french captain on his thoughts about it, not going off hot when we're in france and we welcome foreigners. we often want them to follow rules to respect our culture, respect in the future. and i will do the same when i go to contact isn't quite simply because you get to some people. and so i can agree or disagree with their
8:23 am
ideas. but i have to show respect for that. so as we see there, that's a relatively common response. and personally, i think it's a bit of a cop out, but i think it shows what's a bit farcical about the entire thing fif has put fans players teams in a very difficult position where they all kind of individuals have to make decisions about what kind of statements will they make, do they feel comfortable watching this? do they feel comfortable attending? and then you know, we're talking about arm bands when the tournament is still being played in a tournament where homosexuality is illegal. and i think it just shows some of the issues with how we're sort of discussing this. what about on the pitch when i get to that? yeah, at least who's actually going to wind director. oh, i mean, and again, i just, i call about someone for copping out just a 2nd ago. i might do it myself because it's the middle of the season. so many big
8:24 am
names are injured. teams haven't really had time to jo. i think it's going to be very unpredictable. lot of people are talking about south american teams. may be messy. lifting it with argentina and his last big go. i think if i had to pick on live television, which it seems i do, i would say germany, they have not been in the best form, but they're always good at surprising and getting ugly wins. so to be them. ok. doesn't have anything to do with the fact that you're, you're building in germany, nothing at all, and nothing to do with that. they've frantic from d. w. suppose. thank you very much for the analysis. going to be very interesting. woke up 5 years ago when you speak radical, was published that shopped hollywood and had an impact far beyond the film business . it's allegations against powerful produce a harvey weinstein triggered the me to move, but again, sexual abuse and led to his downfall. the story of the journalism behind that article is the subject of a new film. she said, which is being released in the us on friday. ah,
8:25 am
why is sexual harassment so pervasive is so hard to address. these young women walked in to what they all had reason to believe were business meetings. in 2017, the new york times broke the story of a generation of trying to touch. i asked him to leave me alone. russia. it was the result of months of painstaking work by investigative journalists, megan to and jody canter. they traced women in the film industry who'd been victimized for decades by a serial predator so powerful, he seemed untouchable for from the new york time. i believe he used to work for harvey weinstein getting them to speak out. was another thing. how did you persuade women's to tell you what had happened again? i made with i can't change what happened to you in the past. but together we may be able to help protect other people. the truth. basically,
8:26 am
the revelations dan covet, empowered women everywhere to share their own abuse stories in women, abuse or terry mulligan and zoe, kasan play the reporter as his work. one them the pull it surprise me, what is it exactly that we're looking at here? it's a film full of women being courageous. and i don't think there's that many examples of that on screen that aren't in c barrier. film. thick hair is a film of countless examples of female heroism. hi, my name is jodie hunter. i'm an investigative reporter for the new york times. it's about the bravery of the women who came forward and spoke to them either on or off the record. and it's about a system just beginning to change barbie adamantly to mars any allegation of with this is about the system protect abusive. she said the book was described as an instant classic. now the film a set to rekindle one of the most important conversations of our times,
