a couple of other new stories making headlines today. dozens have been killed by he stroke in thailand as extreme heat grips south and southeast asia authorities in the tie capital bank hall club warrens of extremely dangerous conditions. schools have been closed in the philippines and bangladesh for tens of millions of children . the united nations has worn the deaths due to heat stroke, were widely under reported calling sheet a silent killers in the arms of the windmill. at the legendary moved on route night club in paris, i have collapsed firefighters. say no one was injured. it's not yet known. what caused the incident at one of the most well known spots in paris? this comes just months before the french capital hoss the olympic games. people are russia's core gun reach, and they've been dealing with weeks of unprecedented flooding. that's forced

thousands from their homes. now they could be facing a new danger. russian. environmentalists are raising the alarm over a potential radioactive leak, the source the dope or a ball noise and you, you uranium mine located near cork on, on the russian cause of order. the mine contains over $7000.00 tons of uranium and is in the path of rising flood waters. flooding means it's possible that radioactive material could poison rivers and fresh water sources in the region or or layer. i spoke about this with andre also or all state. he's a nuclear waste expert from the russian social ecological union. i asked them tell us more about the public health hazard from the uranium mine. yeah, but sure, stay with like, just tons. that's it is already flooded. the wells where you dream comes on the surface already underwater, as they use,

it's sort of the bottom of the russian stage. you play monopoly. uh, one of our divisions schools that little, they use a really cheap but very harmful to environment. the use of extraction, your revenue, it's in size, you legion. so they make uranium solutions liquid underground in the, in the, in the they don't create mines, they do wells. so it looks like the oil uh extraction facility. but they extract not oil, but liquid solutions of your in your why it's dangerous that they part of this uranium reserve, which is already under water. these tart uh extraction in named a tooth during the soviet union time. and lots of old uranium wells are just lift out the pressure on the ground pressure pumps up uranium solutions.

drinking water are on problem magic and they're accusing the population of radio phobia is, is the issue being down play? do you think by the government? well, you know, they had reached out to him was a part of the russian government. it's a state corporation. so whatever they say the, the governmental control must media, will repeat as market if monte comes to. um, the effects are the concentration of dangerous uranium faults in the water of campbell river, which is used as a drinking bree before regarding for the capital of the problems increased. it is not the levels which brings you to death immediately. of course not. but the collect, given those, all the people who use his drink and what it will definitely be increase. and if the collective deal is increased time of those people who will get ready for

reasons, insights bill gets problems with the house. that's how it works. andre, thank you very much for talking with us today. that was andre also ruskie, a nuclear waste expert from the russian associate like a logical union. it's terry martin, thanks for watching. the driven by greed in the 2000 storage of band engaged in various high risk business practices to raise for ever higher profit. and then the ethic, the mind of a determined institution, the dodge of bank story starts may 2nd news on the w the, there are some places just about everyone has heard of, but fewer.
