will look at how classes in a front line city have moved under ground to avoid russian missile attacks. the empire, richardson, welcome to the program. in the united states, a recovery mission is getting underway to find the bodies of 6 missing workers, presumed dead for a major bridge collapsed in baltimore. the francis scott key bridge came down after being rammed by a ship that had lost power. the federal government has problems, 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 heart breaking end to a rescue mission. after nearly a day of searching for 6 workers who fell from the bridge,
11:02 am
authorities say it's unlikely they survived in the 8 degree water. 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 axis search and rescue efforts. this is footage of the moment a large container ship called dolly hit, baltimore's francis scott key bridge. dolly was leaving the harbor on its way to sri lanka when it lost power. steering the ship was unable to maneuver and slammed into one of the bridges support pillars. little was known about why dully malfunctioned frances scott, cheese collapse will likely have little effect on world wide trade, but it will surely impact baltimore's economy more than $15000.00 jobs depends on the port and ship traffic in and out of baltimore. is that a standstill port
11:03 am
a baltimore is one of the nation's largest shipping, helps. it handles a record amount of cargo and last year it's also top port in america, both imports and exports of automobiles and light trucks. around $850000.00 vehicles, go through that port every single year and we're going to get it up and running again as soon as possible. the federal government has promised to cover the full cost of rebuilding the bridge. no matter how expensive but 1st ship safety agencies are set to come to baltimore, to figure out what went wrong with dolly. right before the crash. of course, far as the director of germany's federal bureau of a maritime, a casualty investigation. and i asked him how such a big ship could suddenly lose power and control and whether there are any backup systems. right? um, yeah, 1st of all, these are terrible pictures. this is a terrible accident and i haven't seen pictures like that in my career. and
11:04 am
to answer your questions, you have some tools that will take up systems normally waiting the hours from all of the ship. then you have time to read or 30 minutes and then then the emergency, the generation should stop and these emergency generation then when i'm supporting the power again so that you can start to read machinery. again, this will chase round about 2 or 3 minutes and then besides back in june, a short period of time and of course drop the angle, for example, to get the ship to hold. so in this case, do you think it is likely then that these emergency generators failed to kick in or, or simply that they didn't have enough time to do so? um, i'd love to talk to, to him, to talk about from, from my point of view. and it seems like as the,
11:05 am
the emergency to the right of work because the on the lights, but only getting but i had no information if it was possible to start the machinery again, the main domain name. and as far as i know, the, the tires on both of those issues, the gauge of the drum and a, and a he immediately gave an emergency card that you're on shore. so i think he did the other thing 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 in the netherlands, 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?
11:06 am
i'm just listening. this is a little frustrating to each individual. they are and what, what kind of measures they, they would like to install this as a decision on the product. so they have not that many measures as you can, can, can do a headboard, for example, there is senior living nation to up to a certain size of the ship. you all blige, to take a tech code for assistance. and if you use tech for the 4th of excellence, like this may can, can, can, can, may not be, yeah, that's the side of the tech, both. it's a slides difficult. it's because it's well the, the environmental just there and the conditions out there. so it's um, was nothing more that you can, you can do about to those of course bear a director of germany's federal bureau of maritime casualty investigation. now the
11:07 am
united states says it will continue parachuting aiden to gaza despite a plea from homos to stop the practice. the militant groups as people have died well trying to collect food packages, causes a mouth run health ministries has at least 12 people drowned to this week. after air dropped, packages fell into the sea. another 6 people were killed and stampedes. 8 agencies say only about a 5th of needed supplies are entering the besieged territory. as israel continues it's offensive. parts of gaza are facing fam, and nearly 6 months into israel's military campaign, triggered by the october 7th tomas terror attacks. so with a mazda authorities calling for an end to air drops, even as so many causes face hunger, i spoke to database correspondent rebecca rivers and asked her what this tells us about the situation and gaza. a glare. i think it tells us just how desperate the situation in gaza easily for reporting on the situation, the increasingly di,
11:08 am
humanitarian situation for weeks and months now. and it's only getting worse, particularly in that northern part where those air drops are taking place as particularly acute a groups have been 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, a 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 clinton 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 that causes on the ground a facing and what is putting them in the need. if you're making them need need to
11:09 am
chase off to these a packages and put their life that further risk. let's take a look at diplomatic efforts briefly in doha, this week, rebecca, we've seen interact, talk between our mazda and as well. can you tell us where things are stands now or no specific details? obviously, the details remain very on the right. this is a highly got high, highly got and talks that 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 parts of these discussions that it appears that a deal maybe imminent. but at the moment that deal 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 cost of that resolution was passed. and then
11:10 am
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 thoughts has been agreed to a namely the number of prisoners slash hostage exchange swap. we're looking around about $800.00 prisoners palestinian prisma some who are in prison for live 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, but neither side can come to an agreement on, namely, how my system on for a complete and time. and it's a sly and is, is rarely withdrawal. and that's something that is ralph. say they will not get on board with. so at the moment the talks to appear to be in a deadlock class, rebecca renters in jerusalem. let's take a look now at some other stories making news around the world's police have clashed

a form of senior un officers. that's 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 development. and that's what i'm worried about if that happens, and there's not the agreements in place, the draft constitution agreed to things like this. that could be internal conflict . at the moment the fight in together. and they seem to see they've come in to be calling them 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. this is the situation that time gets
11:15 am
worse. i will done join 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 n g o. they can only hope for peace and political change on the other side of the border river. i spoke earlier to saying if in a for me is journalist and exile and ask them how big the resistance movement is at the moment. the risk system movement is gaining momentum and then they, uh they have been increasing holding. are we seeing more collaboration between ethnic minority groups in the m r and the pro democracy movement? how have we seen them increasingly joining forces here? it was. and then if you look at the families and the structure of the intense
11:16 am
folks that follow a stretch at the military, it done little and i'm afraid it falls and, and ethnic minority. it's all the history down at all. and the dumb credit for somehow more or less. and then we'll go to the, a federal incense and the other political issues of the to go. it is change from us to getting the get the full affairs of the, of the mix. my direct the, which has a beta frame finding fault, the case is called the total be for the set determination of that. and then all these 2 groups have been intensified unit the uh, the color, bracing cooperation are getting more and more. and we heard in our report concerns that these ethnic groups, which as you say, have decades of differences and conflict concerns about what would happen if they were able to to take power together. how concerned are you about in fighting
11:17 am
breaking out among this cohorts? a pacific, just wishful thinking, you know, they are not stupid and they know that they need to be. they can afford to miss fix coding opportunity that may not kind of make it. so this guy says, if i'm my thoughts are going along and uh, suckle signing, the transitional, government. what i would see is the modified version of the government opposition mission that the government, if they have all the, the s a c in the neighborhood. i'm also curious in this environment with, with low moral with people fleeing the country because they do not want to take part in the latrete service. how much do you think this will weaken the who into throughout the mean time the history. this is the 1st time ever been fries
11:18 am
such shoot threat. i get there, especially as a group of the majority of those that they they, we are in that they have to try it in 90. $48.50 some, some of that article on the, from at the minority assistant forces that no, no, what happened is the from the bottom. it has never seen the full so all the ed also and then jump to the car actions. and even though the out in the, i get that the nice something in the highest military renting and anything girl, they've status but they are not set up all of they became a part time. so the problem was if they don't want to 5, be just went through the ball and the law also the public a dislike. that's
11:19 am
a too much to that. not is the 1st but yeah, mark history. well, thank you so much for joining us on dw news today. that is that journalist same, then we really appreciate your time. thank you. looking at some other world news now for zill and friends have launched on investment program to protect the amazon rain forest and brazil and neighboring again on a. the $1000000000.00 euro scheme includes private and public funding over a 4 year period. the 2 countries pledged to work together to stop amazon deforestation by 2030 mexico is battling dozens of forest fires, mostly concentrated into se 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 led to the destruction of many schools in frontline cities. if left to
11:20 am
children without a structured environment in which to learn, what is dw found out, a new initiative has the more than 2000 kids in the city of hockey, have returned to classrooms in the safest place possible in it's metro stations. the bell signals, the stocks of another day. everything here is as you'd expect, children exercise books, board and teacher bought a moment's notice. so it's better for the children to learn below. ground is safe in the subway because the explosions, outside and dealt with school could be destroyed. that the, these 1st graders have 3 lessons in the metro station today, followed by 2 more at home on line. once they've left all the clauses. take that place. this rotation gets as many children as possible. the opportunity to learn in
11:21 am
the classroom is lucky, 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, parents and teachers are like alaina says that it felt strange to teacher at 1st, but she soon got used to me. it's what do you mean young lawyers, them, there are many sounds down here besides the trains, but we don't react to those anymore. i think they don't bother us anymore. and it was in the village. the schools have now been built within 5 of call kits metro stations adopted from what were once technical rooms and passages ventilation and video cameras have been installed throughout while teachers. it helps by classroom assistance, psychologists, administrators, and that's some of 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. more than 2200 students attend these metro
11:22 am
schools. but there was still not enough space for everyone. more than a 100 schools in khaki if have been damaged by shelling, many beyond repair. the new 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 than here which so now at least these metro and schools are giving children a small taste of the structure he wants to click wanted. i spoke earlier to our corresponded 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 on the heart of cube last week when russia to count the main power stations right now you have hundreds of
11:23 am
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 itself. that's it because weston and defense systems were being supplied in at the amounts of the quantities needed. now as we've seen us funding for the europeans being slow to produce new supplies, the ukraine's ability to take out those rest themselves is getting worse. and so the damage is getting bigger. so the real worry that the, even the people who stayed and try to give who basically, you know, set out to use of all the life to 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 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 seemed because billboard is basically the neighboring city to kind of give it's about 70 kilometers down the road. absolutely. most of this will basically
11:24 am
build it was more or less unaffected. and russians living that could basically convince themselves that this will was happening in the 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 as the border, but also gauge builder and city as well. so now more recently a tax on target fob beyond the front line to be on the board of russian oil facilities, mississippi, this book and moscow. 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 much more on your brain. that's the 1st thing. secondly, there's a ministry component. this helps the forces website to take a defense systems to protect cities like feel good 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 oil expo terminals. that has to be a bit of
11:25 am
a kind of interesting speculation that the us may be telling you crate to stop doing this because they fear rising a little price is. ready wide, if those russian exports are tailed, that could bite in shots of reelection. 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 well. one way. next, thank you. that is due to these corresponding new connelly reporting from kiff. before we go, let's get a reminder of our top story. 6 people are presumed dead after a container ship and struck the francis scott key bridge in baltimore, causing it to collapse. maritime traffic to the cities port has been blocked indefinitely. and president joe biden has that the us government will cover the cost of replacing the bridge. an editor news update at this hour, our show close up coming up next with a look at how the horn ukraine is pushing more polish civilians to seek military training. and of course there's always warner website team dw,
