of strategy by firefighters. it also accuses building material firms of systematic. dishonesty and the deliberate engagement to manipulate testing processes and mislead the market. the fire which spread rapidly through the 24-story block in west london is said to have been britain's worst residential fire since world war ii. grandfell united, which represents survivors and victims, has called on the government to act urgently and hold those responsible to account. the simple. correspondent in london said pureza joined us earlier with more details regarding the report which disclosed that the deaths caused by the grandful tower fire were avoidable. we saw the victims, survivors rather, and members of families of the victims speak right after the report was released earlier

included still fair dangerous uh combustible cladding of course the fire brigade it it criticized. is for not having the proper strategy, the prime minister kier starmer saying that the incident should never have happened, but it were yet to see whether or not his government will do anything in the coming uh months and years to prevent a tragic incidents like that. the chairman uh the inquiry, as you played a little earlier, concluding uh today that every single one of those deaths in gurenhal tower um was avoidable and in the uk thousands of shia muslims have gathered to pray for the soul of milani, a senior scholar who passed away on monday after a short battle with cancer. is a report from london. the muslim community in

london is in a state of morning after the passing of beloved leader, scholar and teacher. said fatheril. he passed away at his home in the british capital on monday after a short battle with cancer. his relatives say he succumbed to the illness only 10 weeks after being diagnosed. thousands have attended this northwest london mosk to show their respects to a man who stood as towering figure for nearly four decades in the muslim community, praying for his soul as he departs to the next life and paying tribute to his contributions to the islamic world. for his students, it was his ability to speak to the younger generation about the... importance of islam that made him so significant role model, it's a testament to his um broad reach and his warmth connection with so many people. "and also different ages, i mean, you speak to the youngsters, they'll say he'll sit with them, you speak to the elders, they were very, very close to him, and as us also as students, he was always there for us, he

was always available for uh, consultation and advice. ayatollah milani was born in 1944 to scholarly family with both his paternal and maternal grandfathers, having been clergyman, while he himself gained ijtad, that is, the permission to issue religious ruling. at the age of 30, for the many scholars and attendants, he was teacher, guide and mentor as they pursued their own paths of knowledge. for me, without a shadow of doubt he was one the most inspirational people in my life when it comes to my journey of faith, he never doubted me, he was very supportive, very encouraging, from from, supervising my work initially at the houser, to giving me suggestions to... allowing me to to take this garment and to later on giving me continuous advice and direction on how to deliver and propagate the message of islam. as a personal

figure that i would like to remember is he was my teacher, he was inspiration and i'm lost with words truly to describe what a great figures as father milani was. his ability to reach out across many communities and generations and his deep dedication to the islamic teaching. only reflect the significance of his legacy, his place will be almost impossible to fill. ease akademy, press tv, london. and intensified assaults are being launched against ukraine, placing immerse pressure its forces as russian troops prepare to make further advances. meanwhile, within ukraine, the government is undergoing reshuffle with several officials resigning or being dismissed. the foreign minister is latest to submit. his resignation, our guests have offered their insights in our news review program. hello and welcome to another

edition of the news review. in this edition, the russian missile strike on western ukraine leaves seven people dead, including three children, amid an optic and fighting between the two neighbors. officials in laviv oblast reported at least 23 people were also injured in the strike on residential buildings. the attack came amit the biggest political shakeup of the war-time ukrainian cabinet, foreign minister has become the latest minister to submit his resignation, at least seven. ukrainian ministers and senior officials have resigned and a presidential aid was fired. the parliament is yet to approve the resignations. legislators have

already approved the exit of three ministers and one vice prime minist premier. this is while ukrainian troops are facing pressure around the strategic city of aporoskov, which is on the brink of falling to russian forces. for more on that, we're joined by our correspondent johnny miller who is with us from moscow and also mr. christoph herstal, author and politician joining us from berlin, and let's begin with our very own johnny miller, you're right there on the grounds monitoring what's happening, give us the latest, and why is this cabinet reshuffle so important? well, the truth is, we don't really know uh the reason. for this cabinet reshuffled yet, you very well sumed up the events in ukraine at the moment, and in russia, there are many of them at the moment, russia making gains in the east, major

russian missile strikes and this uh, increasingly looking very much to a disaster, ukrainian incursion into cursed, but the reshuf we don't really know yet, i think we're at another point in this conflict of which way will it go, and that's what i think. cabinet reseffels are about uh, but we don't know which way they're going to go, will this be another escalation? at the moment ukraine is asking the west for permission to use western missiles deep inside ukraine, deep inside russia, meanwile russia is warning in the very strongest terms that if there is another escalation from ukraine we will hit back in a devastating fashion. the other option is that there may be signs that ukraine and more importantly the united states. that really hold hold the power here, they want to negotiate, i think that's less likely sadly, or could be some signs that zelensky's power is in trouble,

but his cabinet reseffel, this cabinet certainly is significant uh, and people are still trying to figure out just what the motive is. okay, interestingly, you mentioned zelinski, so let's bring in mr. christoph hostel from berlin. do you think that zelinsky's position is now shaky or not? zelinski's position is of course very shaky. he has taken a really crazy decision which was very much criticized in the west. that means the incursion into a cursed region in russia, old russia, that is to say, where there was no military installation and he wasting supplies and manpower on on this adventure, and it didn't help him anything, whereas on the other front as our colleague correctly pointed out, the ukrain army is losing all over the place, and they face very bad winter, so this cabinet reshuffle for example, is a reshuffle out of utter week.

and we have pentagon paper saying that for the next five years they are planning lull in the fighting and not escalation, so we do have an unintended mission creep of the warfare in ukraine into something bigger if missiles striking deep inside russia are being mentioned because russia will answer and it's going to be worse and the red line was already crossed that russia has said before, for him that if zelensky stops the warfare and says he doesn't want to enter nato, there can be peace immediately, and then it means cease fire, stop of uh exchanging fire and sending missiles and drones and air craft and things like that, but that red line was crossed that now president putin few days ago has said, this offer is no longer valid and that means in fact total catastrophe for here, thank you

very much, that was mr. christopher hurstel, author and politician, joining us live from berlin, and also our very own johnny miller from moscow. thank you very much to both of you gentlemen for sharing your thoughts and views on this edition of the news review, and thanks to all of you viewers for watching this edition. israel continues its genocidal war on the gaza strip for 333 days and the longest war it has fought against resistance fighters since the occupying regime was founded in 1948. the death doll of the israeli regime's genocidal war in gaza has already surpassed 40,000 more than 16,500 of them being children. the
