Ah, a political come back in brazil losing nothing. Luna desilva narrowly wins the president ial run often almost is to unite a divided nation arrests in india after the collapse of a pedestrian bridge that killed more than a 140. 00 people. The search and recovery work goes on plus a Chinese State here in germanys largest contain of what has like to come, prefers and fearing that it makes the country more depending on china. As what happened with rochester, im steadfastly watching some of the handbook port. Im going to guess roscoe with well cut latest. Its policy time for arsenal to gone. A midfielder helps lift his team back to the top of the english, primarily with were going to begin this news are in ukraine, where russia has once again launched missiles against the capitol. Several explosions have been reported in cave as well as other cities. In recent days, moscows stepped up, it strikes, targeting energy, and water facilitates rushes, accusing ukraines government of attacking its black sea flate. In response, moscows pulled out of a un broker deal on grain exports door, aristo, santos. In istanbul, were gonna be speaking to him in a few moments. First of all, were gonna go to hurry faucet, whos talking to us from keith. Harry, lets talk about these missiles strikes. Keith, once again, and the firing line. Thats right, yes, this is the 3rd monday morning in october, which began with the loud sound of explosions across kia this time. They were concentrated in the north. It is where saying that there is a reservoir in that area. There is a hydro electric power station in that area. We were up there reporting under Ukrainian Military restrictions, but suddenly the impact of this and as described as well by the cities, met that saying that a, a, a piece of Energy Infrastructure was targeted and hit the impact is being felt pretty widely, both in terms of electricity in the areas up there that we were reporting from a lot of people had lost power very shortly after the last of those group of explosions just after 9 oclock. And there has been widespread water shortage as well. The mer saying 80 percent of the city cut off from its usual water supply saying a few hours ago that it would be a few hours before that started to be restored. And certainly, we saw a lot of people queueing up at a, a stand pipe in a park, in a neighborhood near vishal road, up there where people had lost their water supply and they were filling up large containers. They were telling us as well about how it was during the course of the morning, around 10 explosions in total for them. They said were very close by shaking buildings and causing some concern. Of course for the residence there. This has been replicated across the country. There have been strikes very broadly fired. Cruise missiles are the russian cegna precision strikes. All of the targets were struck. Ukrainians saying that of 50 cruise missiles fired 44 of them were shot down. But also calling for more air, defense or weaponry from western countries to try to come back. This kind of attack, harry, thank you very much. Did hi fossa bringing this up to date from cave . Well, 12 vessels carrying grain have left ukrainian ports as part of the deal, allowing keys to export the cereals, the rent, okay . And ukraine have now agreed and a plan to move 12 outbound and for inbound ships. The turkish president says this government is determined to keep the ukraine grain deal in place, but how much of an impact has the deal actually had while before russias invasion . Ukraine was one of the Worlds Largest grain exporters, ukraine and russia joined the produce about 30 percent of the worlds wheat exports. But when moscow invaded and blockaded cubes, black seaports, those shipments came to a halt. In july, turkey and the un were able to broker a deal between moscow and keep and since then, 461 grain ships have left ukraine by october, the exports of nearly reached pre war levels. Nearly half of ukraine suite exports go through the backseat and theyve gone to lower income countries. Somalia gets most of its wheat from ukraine while laos, egypt. The democratic republic of congo and senate golf are also heavily dependent. Okay, lets go to rest sada, hes joining us from the black sea, but it meets the boss for a straight at russell did bring this up to date with whats happening with these latest green shipments and this deal thats been talked about while we are in the kiddos district off its stumble where the black sea meets the boss for us. This is the passage for the great shipments here right behind me. You can see towns off the west. Those are anchored at the angling here and waiting to be in packed it so many of them are carrying the grain from. Busy from ukraine, and these are just a small portion of the wessel that are now waiting around the stumble in total according to the joint Coordination Center about the established in a stumble in total 97. 00 loaded ships. And also 15 in bond west are in registered for the g, c. C, joint coordination, center inspection, and also 809. 00 more ships have applied for the registration for the joint Coordination Center to be inspect the for today. The United Nations and the turkish teams at the Inspection Team have agreed to inspect 14 west hills. The premium site has agreed with that, and the russia, the direction side confirmed that they are going to cooperate at remotely. However, we do not know whats going to happen from to day on the turkish president jeff taper. One has said that despite russias hesitancy, and despite his withdrawal from david, the deal, turkey is keen to continue to afford to keep the deal allied. But the question here, whether from today on russia is going to provide the security guarantees or not. If russia doesnt give the security guarantees demonstration in the black sea is going to be quite difficult, according to the turkish minister of defense. Since the deal was signed in july between ukraine, right . Nations tricky and russia, 408 ships have passed through the boost ford of carrion 9300000 tons of the green to the international market. This numbers might seem to be covered just before the war, immediate period of time, that the number of the ships tip here carrying the green pass in the boss for us were double off off, off, off, off this. So black sea is quite a crucial region because its on a lawn accounts for 30 percent of the global green export and more than 17 percent off the corn out trade globally. So considering the fact that russia is number one, great, there the green export in the world and brooklyn is ranked fit, and the disruption in the black sea could further deteriorate the global food crisis, breathing us from a stumble thats wrestles said i wrestle. Thank you. Tell him our head on the news. Our including south koreas president joins mourners to honor those killed and a stampede and soul and saturday and his fort max for stop and re writes the f one racquel got once again in mexico. More than with joe coming up there was enough in a loaner. Da silva has pulled off a political come back in brazil. Hes won a tightly contested president ial run off election against fall writing comma, the job both sonata. Our latin america editor lucio newman, reports from sub follow an election that left Many Brazilians in tears, some from happiness. Others from the heartbreak and defeat of their candidates, ah victorious left wing candidate. Lucy, nancy mueller. The sima arrived to address brazilians have his headquarters. When it was confirmed that he narrowly beat an incumbent president j bull sonata. Yeah, the toys do, he moves, movie mental demo. This is the victory of an immense Democratic Movement that was formed beyond political parties, all ideologies, all personal interests. So that democracy could triumph. Its been an astonishing comeback for brazils 1st working class president who served to successful terms from 2003 to the end of 2010, but who was later imprisoned for corruption. The conviction was later overturned, allowing him to run for a 3rd term. Todays election is a little bit different because what we see is on election to the feasible for model to to get over that these 4 very difficult or very difficult years for brazilians in general, especially for minorities. Thats why diana was crying. Oh not im looking for that is not that were really we are i think we are part of the l g b t community. You know, its been very difficult to leave in the country that doesnt tolerate people as they are starting to date. That was started. But it wont be so simple after a bitter election that split brazil in half the victory celebrations and meetings are understandable, but they do not the fact that president , i neither have many of his going to supporters and that doesnt mon well well maybe the next government greatest challenge that is to make brazil pole again. You, while leaders of both houses of congress congratulated lou left his when some bold sonata supporters called put military intervention. You some of put out this is a fraud and the people have to call on the army. The army must intervene. Sonata himself hasnt said a word in public since casting his vote. Talk to you for the question is whether he plans to make good on earlier threats not to accept the election outcome. To see a Newman Al Jazeera south power wheel. When you get to reporters covering the election results, monica, you can visit. Where did you hear . Were going to be speaking. I heard a couple of minutes. First, lets go to the sample whos in brasilia, teresa shoot celebrations. Of course weve seen by luna supporters but still no concession as far as we can tell from charitable sonata well more certainly there will be huge celebrations in large parts of the country in the northeastern part. There were fireworks and people dan thing on the street. Thats a strong hole for for now. President elect lula. Fema also in the sense or how little thousands and thousands of people as my colleague, lucy newman, was reporting and also here in brazil. Yeah. Where we are right now, press and see, lets talk to the nation. He said that this was the victory of the brazilian people defending democracy. He also said that he was going to fight hunger. And the Main Objective right now was to unite the brazilian people that he was going to war for every one. But thats not going to be easy. This is a polarized country around 50 percent of the country not totally did not vote for him. They do not like him, they dont want to see him in office. They believe that he should be in prison. So you know, this is the ruling in this country is not going to be easy. We havent heard from president. It was not a we were at the for president ial residents until late at night he remained there. He did not, conceded defeat, he did not call president elect lula. Among other things. However, what is important is that the preference of both chambers of congress at the Knowledge Level victory, the director of the electoral tribune, says that he spoke to both candidates and said that its very likely that you vote for not or will acknowledge what happened here on sunday, but this is in a way, its not, you know, it shows a bit of whats been going on in this country. The tension that has existed here. So, you know, when i dont question the electronic voting system, he at question the electrons, tribute not even suggested at that point that he should be the on forces which would be carrying out the counting process. So hes words right now are crucial to see what he thinks about what happened on sunday and about talking to his followers. You know, dad will send out a will remain this countrys president until january 1st. And hes attitude until now shows that business not going to be uneasy transition and that he will remain an important figures in this countrys politics. Hes a man whose the allies have worn in some crucial states that governorships his sons. I was senator and a congress man. He has the majority in both chambers of commerce, through different types of alliances that we will have to see how those alliances play out. But we know that both when i to was until early today at the press it i to president ial reference. He now moved to the president ial palace. Hes there right now when people are very much, very much expecting what he has to say. Theresa. Thank you very much. Indeed. Theresa bow talking to his from brazilian. Lets go to monica. Youre mackie of whos joining your slide from Rio De Janeiro is. Teresa was pointing out, its clear that alluded to, sofa has a very tough job. I had to try to presume bruce to the brazilian people that he is. And he can actually deliver on the promises hes been making. Whats been the reaction to the result where youve been well here and we are, theres an error. There was a huge party ah, in the center of the city of for lola. There wasnt much for both them out of because both sonata, although rio, is his strong old. He was then brazilian. So thats where the concentration was. Ah, the business community. And then businessman, in general, they are worried to be of because of the uncertainty of polls. Leonardos silence also. We heard that there were roadblocks in the south of brazil. The south of brazil is the part that supports strongly supports are both sonata. Thats where are the strong agricultural this is ah, we also know that also narrow has the support of the truck driver so on that this uncertainty of what well well send out a deal and how easy will make the transition for lola is what worries many people in brazil are that the what usually happens is that 2 days after the election, the president elect has ah, sets up, ah, a transition cabinet that will dialogue with the cabinet of the president of the incumbent president. And that they start negotiating to, to see ya. Whats going on were, what are the numbers, how much money is left in the treasury, and so on and so forth. But for that to happen, there has to be a dialogue. So he may make it very difficult for moolah, if he wants to, and that keeps the climate attention still here in brazil, monica, thank you very much. Indeed, monica, youre not here. Talk to us from Rio De Janeiro. What is denmark are also heading to the poles for a legislative election on tuesday . 14 parties are competing for seats in parliament pulse show. Its unlikely the 2 main political blocks are going to get the majority needed. A small habit of voice from copenhagen. And im for either miss garcia, i still have that that in denmark, theres little appetite for last campaign. Rallies. Candidates in the air ways to convince voters they have solutions to the countrys problems. This is an election that comes against the backdrop of war in europe. Rising inflation and Energy Crisis and Climate Change if you look at the major decisions being made and then martin 96 percent of all major decisions are being placed at being based on a broad majority across the middle of the political spectrum. And of course, i think that is the best thing. Prime minister and leader of the social democratic party, meta frederickson, is desperate to build a Strong Coalition of centuries parties. For decades, danish politics have been dominated by a govern in coalitions. Polls suggest that the social democrats are likely to remain the most popular party, but the irony is that for the left leaning as the to stay in power, it may need support from the white. Fredrickson face is a growing backlash over a decision to slaughter. All of the countries formed mink in 2020 over fears the could spread a mutated variant of the crew and a virus. The Prime Minister survived a parliamentary investigation but was forced to call a snap election when her main ally, the social liberal party, threatened to walk out of the coalition. The criticism from the so called mig comission was so heavy that it was impossible not to take a consequence of that. But besides that the whole history of deadman has been cruelly since between passes will eat this will 1st eat together. So the idea of having a one party goldman like in all the country, if you dont, cooper ourself too is not right for the far white. This is the moment theyve been waiting for. They say, if elected, they would push for hot anticipation policies. Big rama you 2 of 2, then we will never support a social democratic governments, the Prime Ministers, according to us, acted against the constitution and its important that matter. Frederickson doesnt continue as Prime Minister or this is denmarks king maker laws look. Rasmussen is a former Prime Minister and his sentries party. The moderates is now projected to become denmarks 3rd largest party. But for now candidates from the right and the left are embracing nearly the same policies, thus further puzzling voters. Half of them are yet to decide their choice. How should mad about our al jazeera copenhagen . Not a few hours lebanon is going to be without. A president Michelle Owens mandate is said to end at midnight on monday, but he left his official residence a day early. So far parliament has failed to agree on his successor. R jacell is ali caution is in baba with more on his legacy. They were 6 critical years that saw lebanon nearly descend into a failed state resident michelle ounce tenure has come to an end. But his promising to continue the fight against corruption within what he describes as the ruling establishment luxury merely. It was like a ferrara, the biggest Financial Crime committed in the world using your own money. We could have cut the losses by using capital controls to prevent money smuggling. Something that still hasnt happened and why theyre challenging us. Is it because theyre going to be prosecution and where little teddy . Just like the last 2 president , parliament has not approved the replacement for plunging the country once again into crisis and creating a power vacuum own said hes also approving the government resignation. I think were very familiar with this. Hes vacuums. This is not the 1st time as you know that we face such as are more of the tradition now. Nevertheless, i think this is representative of the inability of the cut and lebanese constitution. Its inability to function properly. The president left surrounded by his supporters, who came to accompany him on his strict from the president ial palace to register. This is our 2nd departure from the president ial reduction. The fed saw him leaving defeated. Ive been living the civil war, came to an end in 1990. Now, he leaves behind the bitter legacy that many of the beneath would remember his presidency. For some analysts belief that challenges facing lebanon began long before i came to office on federal, should be thought of as part of the continuum. What we have currently living in lebanon is, is a, continue with the off path that has been unraveling for the past. Not just 10 years or 11 years, somewhat even extend. It can continue until the 1990 s, whos a christian came to power in 2016 endorse questions. The law in a political deal that brought back cindy politician sac. How did he as Prime Minister mentally beneath will likely remember the era as a time of great difficulties . The biggest one being the 2020 b port explosion that killed hundreds the investigation into the cause went nowhere with various political factions. Exert impress here on the judiciary, to limit the scope of the inquiry that was followed by the significant loss of value in the nations currency, which has led to the total financial collapse, and people are unable to withdraw that money. Lebanon will now await the election up a new president in the coming weeks. But its not only about political factions at green going to candidate. Its also about regional players facilitating and supporting such a move. For now, though, despite all the troubles, many lebanese will hope to see a more stable future. And then end to their troubles. Ashley major 0, bob lebanon. Hi, coven is a project director of the International Crisis group in london is joining us from bay wood. Thank you very much indeed for being with us. How would you describe lebanese politics right now . Well, we are now in the 3rd or other entering the 4th here of, of a state of more or less complete denial of what has to be done. Of the fact that the way politics has been done here, all the country has to govern, has to change quite significantly simply to get out of this economic crisis of this economy bankrupt bankruptcy and but there is no will. And no, i think i would even think no capacity to actually takes take the steps necessary to do that some. So weve gone from waiting for election for the parliament, then to waiting for the president ial term of on to end. And now were going to wait for the end of the vacuum, which may be month and coming. A political vacuum seems to be almost becoming a tradition in lebanon. Is there anybody within the political structure or elsewhere, the benefits from a political vacuum and 11 on what i think her in the end all sides benefits from this political vacuum on all sides, hedge their bets, all sides are waiting for, for perhaps the external arbiter to to step in and fix this, her and her and everybodys just protecting their own interests in the mean time. In the meantime, protecting also the interests in many cases of players in the Financial Sector who are closely linked to the banking says a to the political establishment weve seen in the past just in the past couple of years, particularly after the port explosion. But of course, in relation to the banking crisis, more recently, weve seen a very strong response from people in the streets. People are clearly very frustrated with the situation thats going on. Do you think that this ultimately is going to lead to more protests on the streets and will it stop there or is that us . Is that at risk that this could escalate and become something far more significant . If there is nobody in charge . So i think, i mean, i would hope, and one would hope that her, that lebanese would her, in this situation take to the streets and tell this part of the list. The Mission Political establishment enough is enough. And her need to get rid of your the problem is of course theyve tried that 3 years ago already and the result was for underwhelming really and to and we had elections earlier this year or that brought some new faces into parliament. But by and large, the Old Established political class, the parties were re elected. So its, its simply an unfortunate, but undeniable fact that the, this political establishment has been and still is very good at dividing people of miss are putting the discussion somewhere else away from the things that have to be tackled like the financial crisis and towards questions like what are the authorities of a caretaker government . What are the authorities of a president , candice president . Is candys authorities b, b exercised by the, by this government and so on, so forth. Questions that are really of very little relevance compared to what has, what has to be done. And 3rd, this way, they have avoided taking these steps. They have avoided for making concessions, changing the way they do politics for and as far as i can see, they will continue to do that. And they will probably continue to successfully fit people against each other and the right people and avoid a large and effective protest. Movement against them. Hi covenants project directors and International Crisis all over in lebanon. So thank you very much indeed for your time. Thank you for being with us. Thank you very much for having at least a 100 people are confirmed dead off to Tropical Storm naga hit the philippines on friday. Dozens are still missing, and recovery teams have little hope of finding the survivors, a strong destroyed villages in farmland and the Southern Island of min to no more than a 100 homes are buried in lines lines. When its time for more on the weather hears every hello we have yet more right in the forecast of the philippines as you go through the next couple days more that in a moment at present. So wet weather, some bluster, weather some when she weather it to the far northeast of china, further south this so little weather front here that just runs back up to was now gay, remembered now gay as the storm that passed through the philippines a few days ago. That will run up towards the far south and southeast of china by that front that extends back into the open waters, drawing that moisture back towards tie one through the Taiwan Strait towards hong kong. What have you shout, blustery spells of wet weather coming through here. Then lottie dry by their state into a good part of japan, we have got a little bit of weather into Northern Areas of china, but nothing too much to speak of by a large is fine and try now into the philippines. And here we go with now. Yes, you can see into the open waters of the south china sea. Redeveloping may become a typhoon for a brief period as we go through the next 24 to 36000 little weaken slightly. She makes his way towards high nan island, but coming in behind his an next system.

It will make its went those central areas around wednesday and thursday with risk of further floods.

The results will define the rest of your bidens presidency and put americas democratic principles to the test. Special coverage of the midterm elections on al jazeera lou. Ah, youre watching, ill just head out reminder of our top stories. This are a number of explosions of inherited ukrainian capital key local government Officials Say that have been at least 40 strikes on monday. The attacks come 2 days after a drone attack and crimea was russia, blames on ukraine, form a brazilian leader lewis in not feel a little de silva has pulled off a political come back. He want a tightly contested run off against president jad both sonata when its used to cut vo teaches brazilian and latin american studies at Kings College london. Hes joining us life. So thank you very much indeed for being with us. Do you think that president mila da silva, has it within him to be able to pull together such a divided country as brazil . First of all, thanks for having me here. Yet there to be a very big challenge for at least lastly the super to to compose a government now and in some ways pacify brazil. The results of the elections demonstrate hold divided the countries. Its important to remember that luna one of course but to read that very very margin is more margin and quite a lot of supporters of president both on our aready protesting on the streets and and denying the results of the election contesting the results of the election so let us you will, we have a big challenge both in the political arena. We are, the congress is not a majority tenderly in his support, but the also a big part of the population that are not happy with the result of the election. That is part of the problem, isnt it . Because its not just a political by a backdrop that were seeing this in. Its actually the social one as well. Because lula has to be able to convince people that he can deliver on the promise is that he made. And from what youre saying and listen legislation terms that is going to be very difficult for him. Exactly. And the question is, are those who support lulu . They are very convinced that he can deliver debt. Theyre this obviously, but there are this big part of the population that really didnt want him to be back as president and will be a big challenge to convince these people that he can be a good president for brazil at this point. So its not so much into convince about his policies, but much more from his people that would like different policies it. Oh jeez. Annabelle sonata claim to be very strong on crime and he relax relaxed gun laws, which actually proved very popular because people felt that they were able to defend themselves against attacks which have been going up prior to to a both scenarios on time in office. How likely is it you think that lula is going to have to tread a fine line when it comes to gun control and dealing with crime in brazil . So there is a very strong legislation in brazil about gun control is not that president ial so narrow, reverted this law, it just gives more options for people to buy legally weapons. What is a big problem today . We have quite a lot of people and on the streets that should not or that should not have weapons in the health. And that would be a challenge for, for lula to change this perception that Public Security or person of security absorbed with people armed on the streets and, and defending themselves firm against crime. That is not the Public Policy or practice Public Policy security issues. And nothing would for the country in general. So lets see how we were managed to do that. He, he can implement again, this ticked control over da da, where it is sitting off weapons what we had before. But the question is, how to make these people, we turn the weapons that they have already. And its important to say that in recent days we, sol, debt are turning into crisis, not only with simple people in the streets, but to important politicians, supporters of more. So narrow, they perform some acts of using of weapons and, and in the recent days before the elections that demonstrates quite, quite dangerous. The situation is now in brazil and ask you about the, the International Impact of this. Because a lot has in the past play a given his support to left leaning governments, whether within south america. Obviously both sonata had very strong links to President Donald Trump when he was in office. Brazil is of also key member of course of the, the, the bricks trading nations as well. Just very briefly give us an idea of what the International Reaction do you think will be to having a lula presidency. And the 1st reaction has been quite positive. Most of the leaders of the world have already salut lula because of his victory. He will have her head of hiena would. Thats very different from when he left a government long, long time ago. And he said yesterday in his 1st interview, that he will, again, as support the multilateralism, a sort of reinforced partnerships that brings you head in in the region, south america and latin america. But also with your opinion and west re stablished ties with that. Its so interesting to see as well that bold zalinski and putting heavy red salute lula because of his election. He will have to, to decide or to make quite clear positions of what were brazil seats. Indiscreet question of am or they were in the credit for instance. And as i said, its not that brazil can play so easily in this matter. Especially consider that produce part of brakes as well. When it says the co value, we appreciate your giving us the benefit of your expertise, sir. Thank you very much indeed for your time. Thanks for having me here. Listen, india have arrested 9 people after a bridge collapse that killed at least a 141. 00 people. Military teams is searching for the victims in the western states. Goes at odd Officials Say hundreds of people fell into the river when cable supporting the pedestrian bridge snapped. It had been post for renovation and only reopen to the public last week. Well, david knight is a Structural Engineer with experience in designing suspension bridges, and hes joining us live from london. So thank you very much indeed for being with us. Obviously, we are in the very early stages of any investigation that is going on. We can only go by the pictures that have been coming out of what happened given your experience however, what do you think might have been one of the causes of this . Thank you rob it. Over soon after the tragedy to, to see the, the images for india suspension bridges are a supremely efficient structural form and incredibly lightweight. They used to cables that span across the crossing of the river. And those tables are really the, the achilles heel of this form of bridge. They are in Structural Engineering terms. There is no redundancy. Essentially no backup. If one of those cables fails, the bridge itself will fall down and thus appears to be what is what has happened in this instance. Its very hard for me from this distance to be sure why that cable has failed, and there are a number of reasons. But given the age of the bridge is to be expected that over that timeframe that cable may have have, have, we can pass through lack of maintenance or, or rust or aspects like that that perhaps something over time. If there is that level of lack of redundancy and also the risks are, as youve described, self evident, is there an increased amount of safety controls and paperwork that needs to be done prior to Something Like this being opened for the public . Absolutely, the suspension bridges are, are commonly useful. But as i said, just that efficiency, they use very little material, but they are tend to be designed by chelsea, Structural Engineers or other experts in bridge engineering. And the checking that goes into ensuring a bridge is suitable for use is vital to maintain public safety. There have of course, been lisa spotters, youtube is concerned. There are 2 immediate solids that are examples of this. Come to mind that to come a bridge in washington back in the 1900 fortys. Theres lots of footage of that on youtube. Of course, the millennium bridge in london as well, much more recently. And one would imagine the technology has developed over the years, and yet of course, the millennium bridge still had its own issues. Is there an argument for saying that maybe this isnt the best way of being of developing these bridges despite the benefits that youve talked about, that maybe we have to start thinking in terms of other ways of developing the technology . I would disagree. I think the technology is perfectly adequate to support these bridges and ensure that they dont vibrate. And i have seen the videos of this bridge being vibrated by pedestrians on it, and vibrations as a basis or not often the cause of failure. Although it does seem to have been a contributing factor here, i would say the bridge and in london, the millennium bridge was not close to collapse when that was vibrating. However, we have got a good understanding of how to restrain these bridges, laterally and vertically, and prevent that vibration. It does appear in this instance from the photos ive seen of the existing bridge. The one no lateral stays. It was incredibly slender as a, as a span and was likely to be find itself susceptible to expectation by, by pedestrians walking across. I dont feel we need to reassess whether we use it. I think care and maintenance and the bridge is being looked after by experience qualified professional engineers is enough to maintain the bridge stuff that we currently have. David know, we appreciate you being with us and all does in a certain giving us your thoughts. Thank you very much indeed for your time. Thank you. So after me as president has joined more as a shrine in honor of saturday, stampede victims in sold him so your and his wife laid flowers at the memorial. More than 150 people were killed and the crowd surged during a holler when festival of Police Task Force has been set up to investigate. The city and government is being accused of burning human remains to destroy evidence of potential war crimes and investigation by the city of justice and Accountability Center. Find a bosh at all Assad Government systematically covered up torture and somebody executions it. Examine dozens of photos and videos, some recorded by city and Government Forces themselves during an incident in 2012 that show bodies being mutilated in the recordings. Soldiers can be seen dancing, victims faces and hands with petrol to ensure the can not be identified, then kicked into a mass grave and set on fire. The city of justice and Accountability Center includes that city and military intelligence had a state order practice of hiding crimes perpetrated against civilians. Are common to allah. Allah is the executive director of the city of justice and Accountability Center, and hes in washington dc. Thank you very much indeed for being with us. How did you manage to correlate this evidence in general and receiving videos from laptop and a cell phone from them . Little intelligence members who are killed in a fight with opposition groups and collecting these pictures with satellite images that actually tell us where the movement of this, these tropes, where and where they were located, what military Intelligence Branch they, they belong to. And also linking them with other that, that we have in our system, including intelligence, government, seating government and diligence documents that smuggle from a site syria that explains the nature of the systematic orders and step practices. And all, with confirming that the girl or the bulldozer was used to dig the master graham actually belonged to the military engineering. But again, thats not station far from the location of the grave. All this evidence all suggest also the narrative inside the video filling all were filming specifically to the branch. There is orders from the branch to film where high ranking officers observed oversee and instructed the burning of the of the dead bodies and puting gasoline on their faces. And hands, all this tells us its a state practice. Its systematic and there was a village there. A government did it on purpose and high ranking officers were involved in these cranking do we know anything about the people whose remains were partly being destroyed . Indeed we managed to locate a video from our database that shows up there some being taught chart and a lot of did buddies around him, dont that buddies match the buddies were burned in the mass grave. So we did some analytic analysis there and we met were able to identify one of the families and we conducted an interview with one of the of the family members. 3 brothers were killed. Somebody excuse me, good. On the spot on their home. 17 dead bodies were stolen from the crime scene as the family home. They were civilians, neighbors and some defects are living. And thats home where the military intelligence and Unit Division or division 9 from the military storm to the place and promised everybody. Basically, nobody would be harmed, they surrounded the surroundings, their arms up, and the governmental soldiers executed. Everybody talked the body is burned them and buried them in a massive grab in a different location. Now that youve collated the evidence that you have, what do you expect to do with it . What would you like to happen . We have 2 senior officials that appears and these operations that we did not to manage to then defy. Were asking the public to help us then defy those 2 people, one in the military intelligence and one in the military. Thats one thing. We are sharing this evidence with you and with different crimes units in europe with different countries. But also were hoping to pressure the active mission to act more than creating mechanism for them. I think personally and syria to discover the face of those missing and syria would think to understand with this, happened only in the province and that all the evidence suggest that happened indifference province and syria. And this is a big scheme for military intelligence. Operation of filming what happened to be burning and beating of body is killed and somebody execution. We want to make this evidence more visible. I want to tell the ward that actually didnt defying the 5th of them. I think people will not be only possible if we access to military detention facilities or military prisoners like the night prison. A lot of did, but these are actually other than in the inside the detention facilities. Theyre buried in massive graves and the military intel is on the government talk specific pictures of the face of everybody they buried and they know the location. And the city and government tired ranking official that aware of the locations. And they know the identity of the people who are killed. One would imagine that they, the evidence that you collected, if it, if it meets, meets the criteria of prosecutors, for example, would lead to accusations of human rights abuses and so on. How confident could you be that cases could be brought against individuals or particular sections of the survey and military if it was proved that they had some connection with what has been going on . Its proven that has some connection because also some of the orders they should buy. The military intelligence detailing similar incidents saying, some defectors are hiding a certain places or people are setting opposition forces. And the order was to go kill them directly from the military Intelligence Branch. And so there was orders, the mother nature, the visual evidence are really clear, and were hoping this will be a good base. Were starting a cave related to disappearance. And for us and syria where heis i, you ranking officials and governments like shorter white involved indeed. And repeating people after executing them. Summary, theres a couple of crimes here. Some excuse has torture. And of course the hiding and disappearing of the bodies of all links and one line of committing war crimes. A symmetric way with appeals from the government, documents orders to the videos, to actually deploying and get rid of from the military engineering better get to dig the master grant. This is not individual. If this is coordinated campaign run by the military hom at syria justice and Accountability Center, i apologize for interrupting you. So unfortunately time is against us. But we do appreciate you being with us and ill just do so. Thank you very much. Bye. Jasmine, chancellor, off schultz. Is set to visit china in the coming days, but hes facing for this is him for dealing with chinese shipping giant costco. His cabinet, a lot of the company to buy a steak and how both container port step vassar votes from humbug after rotterdam and Chinese State Company Costco has bought a stake in europe. 3rd largest port hamburg the Chinese Investment in one of the 4 Container Terminal for scale down from 35 to 24. 9 percent off. The chancellor, all of shields came on the fire over the deal, but many in germany are still unhappy about reform. The one hand they want to become independent from russia and on the other, theyre given away from him. So important. I think that this has been a favorite project of chancellor all of shorts, who used to be met and pushes his own interest in not only shows his correlation partners who have warned against the deal, the concern outside germany to people in brussels, but also in paris. And a lot of other european members, state capitals like there is, theres a lot of frustration and outrage of like, wait, whats germany doing like, why are they Going Forward this . I thought we were supposed to be decreasing our dependencies when were talking about critical infrastructure. And were talking about the nature of chinas political and Economic System and the nature of a company like costco. I think we should be a bit more cautious, especially now in a post russian invasion of ukraine world. The fact that china doesnt allow similar investments in its own ports, has also been an argument against the deal for some nervousness about the chinese st. Kara, germanys largest afford show company public, but if you see my fear, that mistakes make will be made again. But so far the Business Inside sales handbook see it, it would lose competitiveness against other european ports. Without cost goes, investment the port was already struggling to attract enough business. Sometimes discussions are a bit exaggerated because there is a concern and its an understandable concern. What has happened in the ukraine . We take the concerns serious, but they are minor from our perspective instead of what we can win as a society and of course as an economy like the chairman ones, but the whole europe as well. But other european nations have accused germany of putting their own interest 1st when it comes to china. Chancellor shoulds plan to take a Large Business allegation to beijing showing he may be looking for more deals. While the controversy over the costco deal has yet to come down, step france and al jazeera hamburg ah, on its time for sports beers, here is joe with the lasers in the world cup.

You know, going to will, cup is expensive or the best at times, especially for a while not wealthy economy, but i think at the moment things are especially difficult given the cost of living crisis Rising Interest Rates and also the strong dollars. So if you look at a cost to re cuz specific economic situation, i think its especially bad. You got inflation running now at 10 percent youre in your wages are keeping up so people are getting poor in real terms.
