content is smashing people from the streets as thousands try to least we meet some of those who managed to escape the inquiry. richardson, welcome to the show. in the united states, a huge search and rescue mission to find 6 missing workers after a major bridge collapse has now been suspended. authorities in baltimore believe there is no hope of finding them alive. the francis scott key bridge came down after being rammed by a patch container ship when it lost power on tuesday morning. the federal government has promised money and resources to rebuild the bridge. its collapse has indefinitely shut down the port of baltimore, one of the biggest in the united states, a hot breaking end to

a search for survivors. after new year's day of searching for 6 missing people who were on the bridge of the time, it collapsed. all stores, she said they no longer had hope of finding anyone alive based on the length of time that we've gone in the search, the extensive search efforts that we put into it, the water temperature. that at this point, we do not believe that we're going to find any of these individuals still alive. and so this evening at about 730, we're going to suspend the ad to search and rescue efforts. this for change of the francis scott key bridge being hit by a cargo ship shows just how quickly the bridge collapsed. that's raise questions about it's structural integrity and re ignited fee is about the safety of us infrastructure as a whole. many bridges across the country considered to be in bad condition. but

maryland governor west small emphasized that not many bridges could be expected to weather a hit from a $95000.00 ton congress ship. this is an unprecedented situation, right, where you have a ship and a of a cargo mass that large moving at that speed. it's difficult to understand what infrastructure could have taken that level of that level of it. and that level of directed the federal government has promised to cover the full cost of rebuilding the bridge and matter how expensive. but it has warned, it's likely to have a major impact on supply chains threatening to disrupt supplies from cause to stroke up of the pulse of baltimore is cage's shipping on the us east coast. and the collapse bridge will likely create traffic jams for months or even used to come old customer era is director of germany's federal bureau of maritime casualty investigation. i spoke to him earlier and asked him how such

a big ship would suddenly lose power and control. and whether there are any backup systems um yeah, 1st of all, these are terrible pictures. this is a terrible accident. and i haven't seen pictures like that in my my home career. and to answer your questions, you have to close the backup systems. normally when there's a little issue, then you have time to read or 30 minutes and then then the emergency, the generation should stop. and these emergency generations then am when i'm supporting the power again so that you can start to read machinery again. but this will take around about 2 or 3 minutes and then besides that, and you're in that short period of time, and of course, drop the angle, for example, to get the ship to a holes. so in this case, do you think it is likely that these emergency generators failed to kick in or,

or simply that they didn't have enough time to do? so i'm a little bit this bit have to, to i'm to talk about from, from my point of view, i'm seeking to let the, the emergency generate awards because the lights but only getting but i had no information if it was possible to start the machinery again, the main domain name and then as far as i know the, the tires on both of those issues. okay. all of the drums and a, and a, he immediately gave an emergency car edge on shore. so i think he did everything that he could. okay, let's talk a more generally then about what other kinds of safety measures are in place to prevent something like this. i mean also when we look at the picture in your ok,

you have a huge ports like rotterdam and another lens, hamburg, and germany, men. you're probably looking at what's happened in baltimore and wondering what safety mechanisms are in place to prevent something like that happening here. what would you tell a viewer about what precautions are there to make sure that those parts are safe? i'm just listening. this is a well trusted into each individual they have and what, what kind of measures they would like to install this as a decision on the product. so they have not that many measures that you can can, can do a headboard, for example, there is see a resignation to up to a certain size of the ship. you all blige, to take a tech code for assistance. and if you use type or the 4th excellence, like this may can, can, can, can, may not be, yeah, that's the side of the tech both. it's a quite difficult. it's because it's,

well the environmental just there and the conditions out there that was them, was nothing more that you can, you can do about to. there was also a cost farrah, director of germany's federal bureau of maritime casualty investigation. let's turn now to some other news of the united states. a says it will continue, parachuting, 8 into gaza, despite a plea from us to stop the practice. the groups as people have died while trying to collect food packages, because as i mouse around health ministry says at least 12 people drowned this week . after air drops, packages fell into the sea. another 6 people were killed in stampedes. 8 agencies say only about a 5th of needed supplies are entering the besieged territory. as israel continues it's offensive. parts of gauze are facing famine, nearly 6 months. it's as well as military campaign, figured by the october 7th from us the terror attacks. so with mazda

authorities calling for an end to air drops, even as so many gauze and face hunger, i asked indeed, of these correspondent rebecca rivers. what this tells us about the situation and gaza, a glare. i think it tells us just how desperate the situation in gaza, easily breed reporting on the situation. the increasingly di, humanitarian situation for weeks and months now. and it's only getting was particularly in that northern part where those air drops are taking place as particularly acute a groups have been you sending the warning signals to weeks now, but people in the north starving, we've seen images of malnourished children. we've heard stories of people dying from malnutrition and the simply as you can see, these different people trying to, to run into what, when they can't even swim to try and get some of the packages that everything be deposited in the north. a 3rd of the population of gauze that is facing simon

withhold, and even us secretary of state, antony blinked. him, said that 100 percent of goals as population is facing food in security. so that situation is only getting worse. the longer that this conflict carries on, and that is the situation the causes on the ground a facing and what is putting them in the need. if you're making them need need to chase off of these a packages and put their life at the risk. let's take a look at diplomatic efforts briefly in doha this week. rebecca, we've seen interact, talk between a mouse and as well. can you tell us where things are stands now? no specific details. obviously the details remain very under wraps. this is a highly got high, highly got and talks. it has been ongoing now for months they do appear to be in virtually a period of stasis at a sort of a deadlock, if you will, with just to be a gap between the 2 sides. for them to be able to reach an agreement,

we have seen it at varying pots of these discussions that it appears that a deal maybe imminent. but at the moment that deals still looking a very far away israel had a team and could talk for about 10 days up until pretty much up until monday when that un security council vote at the with cost of that resolution was passed. and then a team was actually brought back to israel, the in direct talks to continue, we're hearing from the categories, and they will continue some of the, some, some of the deals. some aspects of the deal has been hashed out already. and some pots has been agreed to a, namely the number of prisoners slash hostage exchange swap. we're looking around about 800 prisoners palestinian prisoners, some who are in prison for life sentences to be exchanged for 40 hostages. that's the number that we're hearing, that something that is around has reportedly agreed to,

but there are other aspects of the deal that neither side can come to an agreement on, namely, a mazda is demand for a complete and permanent se sligh and is, is rarely withdrawal and that's something that as well, so they will not get on board with. so at the moment the talks to appear to be in a deadlock plan. rebecca renters in jerusalem while with no cease fire seemingly insight inside garza palestinians taking refuge in the very south or waiting to see if israel will push ahead with its planned assault on the area. more than a 1000000 displaced people are now living in the southern city of rafa. many of whom have fled their homes and lives in other parts of the territory or the desperate fight for survival. having replaced their hopes and dreams for a better future. the musicians from across the cause, this trip made this video together a few years ago. they wanted to show the world the problems,

but also the beauty of kosa city. this is what it looks like today. a difficult life has become unbearable. the rep that i'm and more homeless and his family, but forced to flee from the home and goes to the city almost 6 months ago. they know the few in that of miss has. this is that you can't feel psychologically settled all settled in any way. well, you know, i mean, i don't want us to call because until now the war continues and i'm gonna have to, bombing continues, is drones out above us and boats are in the sea. mamma, it's difficult, difficult to return to how we felt before the time and

use to wrap without the hardships of growing up in gaza, which has been ruled by milton booth. i'm us since 2007 because as borders we main lodge dc is by israel and partially egypt. the isolation that created made life tough for young people before the war. today, it's even worse. non christian academy and we're going to you don't have a place where you can feel the one percent safe. are the constantly afraid for yourself, for your family, for your children, to try to keep a mental you don't know how to protect them and keep them safe through them. look at how the situation is very scary during the war. uh, because of that, i dream of it. yeah. these are the guys, this has a huge for my children. part of the dreamy of us building lives in ruins

here. the music center and goes to city he'd set up for young palestinians. no, a man tries to keep the children occupied. he was determined to stay in gaza, but that's changed. from when the bomb hits the surrounding area, anerio is targeted. the fear and horror i see in the rise and the crying will become oh because i know my children have souls left in the souls. i'm more important than any other costs while i did otherwise. and a couple of you can most gallstones cannot leave one raise to pay to cross into egypt. iman is trying to raise the necessary money by

a crowd funding to help his family. the modern, the health of the destruction and gaza is complex for causes to be able to breathe again. we would need no less than 5 to 10 years. a mistake in my oldest, i don't know. people under the rubble from a slash, they're all decomposed bodies under the destruction of the piled up temporary color back of the model of okay. it's hard to imagine how you can psychologically live with this destruction, good biased model. the model right now he says it's all about surviving each day at this time. let's bring you up to speed now with some other world news headlines. police have clashed with hundreds of demonstrators onside the is really embassy and jordan.

protestors have tried for 3 days to blockade, the building and the capital m on in response to the war in gaza. they're also calling on the jordanian government to end all agreements and cooperation with israel. ty parliament's lower house has passed a marriage, equality bill moving the country a step closer to making same sex unions. legal. the bill now needs to be approved by the senate and the king to become lost. if it goes all the way through thailand will become the 3rd country and asia to legalize same sex marriage merge will. through mexico's battling dozens of forest fires, mostly concentrated in the south east of the country. some 4000 firefighters are working to put out the blazes, which have been aided by strong winds, and high temperatures, reaching 40 degrees celsius and ukraine. the ongoing war against russia has

a lead. it should the destruction of many schools in front line cities and has left the children without a structured environment in which they can learn what a new initiative has and now seeing more than 2000 kids in the eastern city, ohio give returned to classrooms and what is now the safest place possible. it's metro stations. the bell signals the starts of another day. everything here is as you'd expect, children exercise books, board and teacher. but there is one key difference. the school is subterranean, built within the caucus metro russian missiles could strike this city at a moment's notice. so it's better for the children ceylon, below ground is safe in the subway because there are explosions outside. and that was school could be destroyed, that the, these 1st graders have 3 lessons in the metro station today,

followed by 2 more at home online. once they've left all the classes, take that place. this rotation gives as many children as possible, the opportunity to learn in the classroom. and of course, the children and we take dismiss normal education very much by normal, i mean face to face communication. so when the opportunity arose, to learn here, we will very happy children and parents and teachers alike. elaina says that it felt strange to teach you at 1st, but she soon got used to me. it's what do you mean young lawyer? there are many sounds down here besides the trains, but we don't react to those anymore. they don't bother us anymore. and it was in the village. the schools have now been built within 5 of call keeps metro stations adapted from what were once technical rooms and passages ventilation and video. cameras have been installed throughout while teachers are helped by classroom assistance. psychologists, administrators, this was pretty new for all of us. so use it had been difficult at times,

but there were no unsolvable problems. there was only unwillingness to solve them. we had the desire to create all of this move in 2200 students attend these metro schools. but there was still not enough space for everyone. more than a 100 schools in khaki, if have been damaged by showing many beyond repair the underground schools are being built across cock give to accommodates most students. but the children dream of a time when attending such facilities will no longer be necessary. i would like to go back to school with a no more school, which is more from that and here which so now at least these metro and schools are giving children a small tice that the structure he wants to click onto. let's bring in our correspondent and ukraine and nick connelly. next we have kids going to school in metro stations there. can you tell us a little bit more about what the situation is like in our case?

a selective as the credit 2nd, because this is city of over 1000000 people before this war is basically on the front line. it is about 3042, how much is from the russian buddha, what that means is that when russia launch is ballistic myself, again, it's kind of give, they hear the bang before they hear the air, a warning, it is so fast. and so those that basically preparing for an attack is impossible. and that's why as you saw in that report, having the school underground is the no, you don't have time to go down into a bomb shelter. you basically do your teaching underground because that is the easiest and the best way to protect kids and give them a realistic job of getting a normal education. we had some pretty major attacks or if last week when russia took out the main power stations right now, you have hundreds of thousands of people without pallet only uh, you know, certain parts that you're getting power for a couple of hours at a time of the best, but this really is also a situation that is developing previously how to keep was able to protect yourself . that's it because weston and defense systems were being supplied in,

at the amounts and the quantities needed. now as we've seen us funding for the europeans, being slow to produce new supplies, that ukraine's ability to take out those rest of your cells is getting worse. and so the damage is getting bigger. so they're really worried that the, even the people who've stayed and 5 give who basically, you know, set out to use of all the life of them is gonna become a whole lot harder before it gets any better and make. i'd like to take a look at ukraine's our response under these circumstances. we have a regional governor saying russia intercepted 18 airborne targets over the builder . our region. how effective are these air attacks? was it seem because belgrade is basically the neighboring city to kind of give its about 70 kilometers down the road? absolutely. most of this will basically build it was more or less unaffected. and russians living that could basically convince themselves that this, what was happening in your brain that it didn't affect them. but in recent months, we've seen ukraine stepping up. it's attacked on attacks on villages just across the border, but also gauge builder and city will say. now, more recently,

attacks on target far beyond the front lines would be on the board of russian oil facilities. and this would be this book and must go. i think there are different elements here. first, i think it's important to you crane to basically bring that message to russians, that this is not something that doesn't affect them, that they off paying a price for that. go much more on your brain. that's the 1st thing. secondly, there's another component. this obviously forces website to take a defense systems to protect cities like the builder away from the front lines. previously, those systems could have protected russian troops in ukraine's. that's the 2nd thing that i think thirdly, i think the major thing in all of this is a, it's the economic impacts. great. and gilbert right now wants to deprive russia of it's willing come. and so we've seen these attacks on oil refineries on will export terminals. it has to be a bit of a kind of interesting speculation that the us may be telling you crazy to stop doing this because they fear rising a low price is. ready wide, if those russian exports are tailed and that could help biting sorts of re election . but certainly for now, ukraine is trying to bring this war to russians on the doorsteps. remind them that

this is something that isn't just going one way. next, thank you. that is due to these corresponding new connelly reporting from kiff mars, who has started summoning civilians to fight and its military. and the conscription drive is pushing thousands of people to flee. the country dw has spoken to some of those who have managed to escape. they claim people are being snatched from the streets, and many people are trying to flee to neighboring thailand, to avoid mandatory conscription, which will force the young people to fight for the military from april as the one to bottles, a growing armed resistance. you know, these asia pacific bureau chief, gave with mattress, met a group of men and now living in a safe house in the ty city of may thought the cross the border at a place like this. the casino is on the balmy's side of the river, almost give enough lights to navigate by and make it into thailand. the size young man recently came here this way. one of them calls himself on sir. do you prefer us

to remain anonymous to protect his family, back home from arrest? he split the draft risking 5 years in prison, and a fine if caught. i don't want to fights my own people. the military use killing people, arresting people. i was arrested as well, so no reason and spends a few months in an over crowded jail. when i heard about the draft, i decided to run tens of thousands of balmy's are already in thailand. as the compulsory draw fluids, increasing numbers of young people are coming, driven by fear of the old military, which are in charge back home and put on sensory cheese in prison. people of being snatched on the streets and forcibly recruited young people like because of a phrase they might be kidnapped by the ministry which people have sent their

children abroad or paid bribes to get them off the list. they go out of myanmar at this official border crossing into mess lots of time that even though officials money to a man are fighting age, trying to leave paul greening a former senior you an officer says the who does introduction of conscription reflects its recent losses against the coalition of resistance movements on the battlefield. he says the resistance is rapidly gaining ground, but the ones of what might happen if they take power. the military victory will overtake the political developments. and that's what i'm worried about. if that happens, and there's not agreements in place, the draft constitution agreed and things like this that could be internal conflict . the at the moment the fight didn't together. and they seem to see they've come in enemy. well calling him and he's going as old animosities. he goes personalities.

this could come up again unless we have systems in place. the young man who have just select the country, suggest opposition to the military. government is so strong that forcing people to fight for them will have the opposite effect. if the situation back home gets worse, i will go enjoying the resistance forces. i think it was a mistake of the june, so it's introduced this draw floor for nowadays will stay here in thailand, in the safe house, provided by an and g o. as they can only hope for peace and political change on the other side of the border river. that's your news update at this hour before we go, let's get a reminder of our top story. at least 6 people are believed that in the us city of baltimore, maryland, after a cargo ship, crashed into your bridge, causing it to collapse. maritime traffic to the port of baltimore is blocked
