will be live in colombo plus. i'm scott hiler in southern thailand we're a fishing community is standing up against a government development project and they say will decimate the environment and cross their way of life. ah, the african interior ministry says that girls will return to secondary schools soon . they've only been permitted to attend primary school since the taliban takeover. male students and teachers were allowed to return in late september lisco live. now to cobble al jazeera, stephanie decker can tell us more stuff. so we think that girls will be allowed to attend school within a matter of days while, oh yes, i mean we heard from a unicef deputy director who is here last week talking to reporters yesterday that he believed that it was imminent. we've just come back to speaking to the interior ministry spokesperson and it is really up to the ministry of education. he told us, but from was it from what his understanding was that it was imminent, potentially the next couple of days. but i think we ne

becky colombo mission has made the 1st of 6 fly bies of the planet using the planets gravity to slow the spacecraft down a launched in 2018 and will soon release 2 probes into mercury's orbit to study the planets. so it will began 3 years ago when the baby columbo mission was launched from the european spaceport in guyana. but this is a long process. it takes its time. what we have here is that an animation of the in a solar system, the sun right at the middle of there. and we're looking here at the orbit of the planet's earth. is the blue line. and then you've got the inner lines, the red line, venus, and mercury, the gray in the middle. so you can see the prob, marked by the x. they are slowly moving in year by year, actually took one and a half years to get through. it's all but 3 is to get to the point of venus and now getting closer and closer into mercury's orbit. and as we said, the 1st of 6 fly buys before it is right day close to mercury was. we're going to talk to dr. political bands about this, his director, director ameritas at the center for remote sensing at boston univ

the baby colombo mission made the 1st of 6 fly by this of the planets using its gravity to slope the spacecraft down it launched in 2018 and will soon release 2 probes into mercury's orbit to study the planet. we heard from photo cal buzz saw a space scientist to boston university was also the former secretary of the lunar landing site selection committee at nasa. he says it's extraordinary nice in it, and really wonderful because of the fact that we use the gravitational port of mercury to put the spacecraft in grocer enough so that we can see the picture. and we have not been there for a very long time. the only 2 missions visited murky before so really expecting a great bit of information. we do not know whether ever there were any water on the planet surface. we know that there is probably some left over water, tiny mountains in the polar regions in areas that never see the effects. but we are not sure about that. and we hope that this mission will give us some some look at whether or not there is a little bit of water in the polar regions where they'd never see that. so they're

the bepi colombo spacecraft will fly by the planet at high speeds, taking pictures of the planet andbit but will begin more detailed observations in four years' time. mark mccaughrean is the european space agency's senior adviserfor science and exploration and is one of the scientists working with the first pictures as they come in from the probe. he explained what they are expecting to find. the only cameras we've got onboard during this flyby are like webcams, really, small monitoring cameras which are actually onboard help us understand onboard to help us understand whether the spacecraft, bits and pieces, all deployed after launch. the main science camera is sandwiched between the two big spacecraft, which are in a stack of three. they don't separate until we actually finally arrive at mercury at the end of 2025. so we'll be taking these black—and—white pictures, relatively low resolution, so they won't add too much to the science on the picture taking side, but many of the other instruments will be on and we are really looking forward to getting some early mercury science back.

they don't, the livelihood of thousands of local families are at stake. minute fernandez, are 0, colombo, time for so change her break here now does it when it come back coding for change? why lebanese protest, as i reiterate in their demands, and the return of horror when it was scary, movies are making a comeback after the lifting of looked down more in that space. ah, it's another beautiful sunny day at 35000 feet. the weather sponsored by cattle airways, voted world's best a line of 2021. the rain is starting to pile up across the southern indian state of carola, hello, everyone. these are the scenes that were seen this boss straight here looking more like a boat in the flood waters. there. we have also had a mudslides and land sides here and over the past 24 hours, scooping up another 100 millimeters of rain. but as we had towards monday, the concerned shifts into walter a con, into west stood to per dash, where we do have red weather alerts in play. the potential to see more than 200 millimeters of rain cross. a bare bengal rain is falling on all sides. here could still myanmar ban
