the hello i'm told me on lot of people welcome to the program. the chief prosecutor, all of the international criminal court, says he's seeing signs of an increase in atrocities in sedans, doubtful region. the area has been a major flash point in the war between the sydney's army and the power military rapids support forces. the eyes, the seas, korean con, said his investigators had been receiving information from the for that points to what he called an organized, systematic and serious attack on human dignity. he called on international organizations, national authorities. and anyone with possible evidence to submitted to his office
7:32 am
to the evidence my office is collected to date seems to show credible, repeated expanding. continuous allegations of attacks against the civilian population. in particular, attacks direct to the gains comes for internally displaced persons. it seems to show the wide spread prevalent use of rate and other forms of sexual violence. 8 seems to disclose consistency of the shedding of civilian areas. the looting of properties and attacks against hospitals all fresh air, the state capital of north dial 4 is of particular concern where the icing sees chief prosecutor is now investigating allegations of war crimes and crimes against humanity. the city has become a new front in the fight between the sydney's army and the recess of the weekends.
7:33 am
the medical charity doctors without borders said alpha she is lost functioning hospital was forced to close to our assessment as an open file on medical staff and patients. most of them were able to flee the facility, which the paramilitaries looted according to new figures from the u. n's international organization for migration. the ongoing fighting incident has displaced more than 10000000 people. it's wanting that 70 percent of them are now trying to survive in places that are at risk of famine. including many children now living in places like hearing the sounds i'm refugee camp in north dot for tens of thousands of people have also been killed since the start of the war. a little over a year ago. the us special envoy to sit on says some estimates on the desktop. are as high as 850000. a sariah 37
7:34 am
year old mazda ended up in does. i'm come with a children after fleeing the violence in and around the city of al sasha. like how does it has our lives? if the come, how do i sound? because we don't have anything, not even food for my children, not that i'm like this. i mean, you wouldn't mind getting the symbols the full, we were happy, we didn't have to buy food from the market to me and we just went now for clothes. we go to me from lives to the we raised, but a stone old livestock. when we arrived at the refugee center, they gave us a few things. but now they've run out, have been and we sold the area who was safe. and they even had the strikes and booming preventables help us achieve pieces of it. and that's our only concern we're doing now by colored higher founding director of confidence, advisory, which has a focus on policy relating to peace and security economy and governance. welcome
7:35 am
back to the pro program, followed um, looking at sedan, how the army and we are assess able to operate the way they are with no accountability. so frankly speaking, you know, sit down, has not gone at the kind of international attention that i should have done. and so in many ways the, this war is being prosecuted in the shadows of the attention. and this is not just because there was wage when the crane and gulf that they've been was waging in different parts of the world. full answer that had been prior to you at the time. but so that has been, you know, the prioritized by many different capitals and, and because of this, you have a sort of bad actors in the region that have been able to try and manifest the foreign policy objectives to the war and sit down. and oftentimes, what we see is the support as to our saffel to the south,
7:36 am
not only for reasons related to sit down, but often times related to this a how old are etc. so for example, you have the united arab emirates, which relies on the, the rabbits of both forces as executor in not just sit down, but also in this a house. and you see russia and sort of pain, both sides primarily giving a lot of support to the wagner group. what is now called the advocate call to the rapid support forces, but at the same time, creating those kinds of relationships with this. it needs all the force of impulse that in order to shore up their interest on the red sea by negotiating for a naval base. right? because some people might look at this story and say, well, this is a domestic issue. there's something they need to sort out themselves. you're saying that the international community can have a great to impact when he comes to resolving the issue and, and bringing order back into sit on yes, i mean much of this stress in terms of what comes next on what the city and what
7:37 am
the sit in these words, you know, 5 years ago there was a revolution, it's called very much for the is lising sydney's political landscape and the economy, but also demilitarize. and so it needs political life and the economy. and that remains the case. but this war itself is increasing the taking on proxy characteristics. so for example, this of nissan, of forces is also been supported by the arrangements and for them it's also about trying to get to put cold on the red sea separate to the one they already have to the who's easy in yemen. and because of these proxy kinds of characteristics, this puts them immediately in other sort of collision cost with united by our i'm or it's while supporting the support forces. and this increasing proxy nature of this war means that actually the resolution for this war is in large part in the hands of the international community. what we're seeing is an abrogation of responsibility across the board of motors for those who have c to the interest
7:38 am
direct interest incident, but also countries in the west, in europe, and in the united states. but, and chiefly, the united nations, which has done very little to not only engage with the political dynamics of this war, but the humanitarian situation as well. um, and the famine you mentioned, the finding that the numbers are staggering in terms of the people at risk. um, when we hear from the age organizations, a number of people who need food, the number of people who need attention, but also just the people at risk of violence as numbers of staggering. but how can sedan move up in the global agenda if we're seeing these numbers and nothing seems to be happening effectively? well, there are a lot of reasons why i said i love the top of the devil agenda. one immediate one related to the time and is that assignment has not been declared. instead of
7:39 am
a positive reason. the when says that it has not declared the time it is because it's feel that it has no data to the integrated of face classification system. that the report from the i p. c is meant to come out relatively soon, although we're hearing it keeps getting pushed backwards, perhaps into july. possibly because it's relies on data from one of the belligerent sides of sydney's offices, which of course is not going to be willing to give data that leads to f. i'm in classification because they want to very much put forward with the notion that they are covered and that's in charge. and they are responsible and on not the sort of overseeing, if i'm going into that. now what this means is that the i p c data and kind of be relied upon if it's relies on one of the belligerent policies for that data. but beyond that, you know, the, the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence of funding. and i think that's a crucial point here. we can see already many parts of the country,
7:40 am
particularly the refugee, comes into for the idp, capt, excuse me, and awful, and other parts of the country this time and conditions are present. the n g o minutes of home to you, the doctors that i bought. it has already assessed it in different parts of the whole, particularly, or in the fashion it citicard's the on the seat that that off. i'm in conditions um the well food program has privately assessed that there is time and time there. if i'm in like conditions in 39 different areas across the country, the data does exist, it is a political decision not to declare. if i'm there by not exactly if i'm in the right results is both human resources and financial resources cannot be martialed in order to raise them up in the status of weld priority. speaking of declarations and you and has added both the sudanese and the iris f 2, a blacklist thing. they've hummed children during this war. what to you are the implications of such a designation. is this enough, as no is completely meaningless unless there is more and more concerted,
7:41 am
enjoying the action. uh, for example, we have seen upsets of, of different mediation platforms springing up since the wall stopped. and none of them have any grade level of coherence. and none of them have brought any serious leverage against a belligerence and, and put that on the table. and so what that means is that you have at least 2 bedrooms, although there are more who now fee know very well that the world has is allowing this $1.00 to continue the world. is that allowing them to used operation is within the whole, the world is allowing them to commit crimes against humanity and will probably to the world is allowing them to hon. children and kill children. and some of these isn't, patients are meaningless, but some in conjunction with others can be quite impactful and particularly fearful that by action. but we need to see is several different countries as well as multilaterals, likely you and the african union, and the regional, you got to have a strategy tools to data. all of them has. so if i put forth
7:42 am
a special on boy for to sit on a war, but none of them have one create to the strategy for how they going to engage with the different moving parts of the school. and to have made enough concerted effort to work together so that the relations don't try and play them off against each other, which is a common tactic that they have used for decades all the time. thank you very much for your insights. it's been a month since floods swept through kenya, more than 290 people died and some 200000 were displaced. the devastation hit one community after another. and so that the helplessness and anger as it emerged, the government was aware the floods were coming and set aside funds for response, but did not act sufficiently still be effective. people are trying to pick up the pieces as dw mario miller reports. the deluge took everything from kevin,
7:43 am
his home, and his business, the local cinema, and it also rep to him of his brother lawrence. are you still struggling to fully comprehend what happened that night in may? i have a, my name is my, my friend here where i'm sitting now is where to send them. they used to be up. i think my brother died to you for daisy my bank at what time holding used to be one of the benches. i wonder if he sat on a time, if i me feel lawrence was just 19 years old. the night the waters came. he was working at the cinema slots with down the valley without warning and crushed. relevant dog, i saw my little brother every day. i didn't do much and he'd done like this. it's so painful. we always sat together chatting, he told me about his dreams, and then there seems to zacko. kevin was powerless to prevent his brother's death. the government was and he says, didn't act despite the full cost of heavy rain,
7:44 am
requested kindly if the government had warned us, we'd have taken care of ourselves that my brother would still be alive now. and we would be laughing together to say then you for us say that it was like a check and i the deluge also left kevin homeless like $200000.00 other people across can you? the numbers are rising. not just because of the floods. the government has ordered the demolition of building standing too close to rivers to prevent further loss of life. that means evictions may indeed targeting low income areas. read scripts, say people are being forced to leave the homes with let you know it is and has nowhere to move to. they say president william util should have access much earlier because i think that them into electrical department. they refused to follow advice . 5, now is everything to, for without following any criteria, without funding to know you have to govern a country with a sucking
7:45 am
a set of standards on those standards. are defined in the law that we ask the canyon government for an interview, but got no response. the presidential to promised anyone whose house was demolished, the equivalent of $75.00 in compensation. but it's not just people's homes. these children were not sped. this whole, that's left of desk. you 1st it was that much, but the floods then the excavators. now these 12 year olds have to learn and attend this and the sitting as we had on the 10 that dentist by feeling so bad because i cannot, of course, it to me course before the sending. yeah. show the you're not getting what's that is stating that school founder george magento says he's not received any help from the authorities and we were asking the officers that, you know, we have 2 of them. that's who would be taken care of by the government. now what do
7:46 am
you have for them? they had no answer. so visitors in the i is the unfortunate that we have a government that is not getting yet we as the community we have to do what we can do to support them and also to become a what they seem to be in the future. soon these people have to take exams, but for many that form a means, it's how to focus on learning. anything right now? i missed my house, so i was so my home go to the water and everything in the house in the house. i notice it's because of school, she's even so you cross your hopes, those fees can help her and she said dreams she wants to become a teacher. i wanted to see who was having disability of the let's turn to uganda where a growling community of mothers is giving hope to other parents unable to provide
7:47 am
breast milk full. the newborns collective known as atta receives calls for some thoughtful babies born prematurely or to 6 to see naturally in a moment, we'll hear from the groups found a but 1st here's a look at how as the donor community is helping to save young lives, caroline and kennedy has a hands full feeding hood twin babies, a boy in a go full and by imagines he says every inspection, i'm lucky to be alive. so in the we born 7 months, we requested that they needed to feed and be the fact that the wayne remedy does the doctors are like no, you have to have breast milk not formula. yeah. these big, these need to have, they are, they need to gain weights and it's only per smooth because that can help. so i did have breast milk, a trade or the me said, a good bumps, but it really failed. i'm thinking it's because of sort of this chris,
7:48 am
i had the time, i was so frustrated as up to the priest, caroline was told that she would need to use the native breast milk to save her babies. but she had real concerns about how safe that would be. 400 bones that was between the relates to see the best move. we are going to get you from someone else. and they co know to point to oklahoma, people have different diseases. right? but, but this may be as good. what. thank you. as a prisoner comes, we've always always attend. indeed, caroline eventually found the free and safe supplies she needed here out to a non profit community group launched in the capsule compiler. a few years ago, it collect smoke from darkness to a screen and showing how to prepare and store it safely. we check through the process. we need to pump wash, clean up, do these pump, the milk, and the story to the freezer. that didn't make one p key. we did not have
7:49 am
a pumpkin state that most of its 3 lila mazda is one of those donuts. she was inspired to help when hearing about another mother in need of she had that triplets . and now unfortunately, one passed away. and she is through the depression, crating and everything shoes. headboard is still producing milk. so when she stopped getting milk, i get these little ones also need to do to a to be reached out to me. like we know you doing it milk that much. can you please help us and know that babies are doing okay and she or it says we mothers, the kids and mothers this. so she sends me every day more than 200 mothers have now donated breastmilk supports over 450 babies to the opposite community. great. and it now has plans to set up
7:50 am
a fully fledged breastmilk bank in the future. last week now to tracy, who moves out from the breast make community you welcome to the dublin hughes africa. you are joining us from edinburgh away. i believe you just received an award. can you tell us about that? um this as a moving mountains, what am i? i got the code to to talk about. i turned to work that we do and i was asked to give a speech as well. but i think it's just to know what they give to organizations that are creating impacts i think and doing things that maybe are useful for future, i believe. right, congratulations, and how did you come up with this idea of the top project? right. um, well, for one i was a mazda one. uh, 3 years ago i had, i gave birth to
7:51 am
a beautiful baby girl. but unfortunately, for me, see, she was not well a when she was born and she required best smoke. but i did not have in that time the doctors told me to get and don't know which i did. unfortunately, she passed away about 3 days after she was born. and then when she passed away, i had breast milk. and because now i knew how important this personal quest for another baby, i went into the native. but lo and behold, the systems did not exist in my country at the time, my country, uganda. and so i wanted to start, i tried personal community to solve that problem. and i tried literally stands for it. alyssa to ha, that was her name is her name, and then my name is tracy holmes. s h a t t a. and it sounds like the one
7:52 am
that is ad steps for milk in one of the local languages back home. it, it does sound like baby speak for the white milk. so the white milk in, in the local language is my town. so i to kind of sounds like that as well. and that was really what happened. okay, i can see here that you did find some inspiration even in your difficult time. how was this idea received or how has it been received a sofa? um i think it has been received well uh they said unfortunately not many people know about personal donation to either they're in trouble themselves or they just have too much or they just want to do it or they hear my story and they wants to donate personal normally what happens is that the doctor doesn't tell you that you require the milk. so normally some baby is born to
7:53 am
sue into smaller to seek these a baby's even born pretty much you're before the due date, the mother does not have enough milk or even milk. i told during that initial period. and they're told to get this personnel because sometimes for me that can cause even bigger problems. so, so that's all to get donors. and what we do is fill that gap because the don't as a not always available in your circle. and so we helped clog, they've got a live, i think it's literally been one of those things where you, you have, you don't really have a choice. you've been told to do this. and this is the thing that will, you told will save your child's life. at that time because your one, okay, not available and there's evidence to suggest that the know does make a difference. we did not. we do not have enough personal backs at the moment. so the w h o recommends breast milk from the breast milk bang. oh,
7:54 am
that is another mothers note in the absence of and let us know cause a bridge to their mind that smoke. okay, interesting. i think maybe for people who are in that kind of desperate situation, that would be the ones that i suppose will open. i guess most people when they hear of this, they are thinking, is it safe? is it good? things like that. how do you convince people of that as well? it is true that that is something that is important for them to consider. but we're very careful. and we have people actually all willing to take milk from us from just anybody because they know that we've done the background work. we have screens and mothers, we have, you know, have conversations with them on consent. they have st. documents to go with them. know, free of charge because it's donation. we also give them this week about the smoke
7:55 am
free of charge. we test the, the mothers, the mothers for diseases that can be transferred through a breast mode. so the ideal thing would be to then foster eyes, the milk and all of that. but at the moment we are in the process of doing more than that. what has been happening is not sharing, which is not safe. we're trying to make it safe. uh. okay, uh that's uh interesting and inspiring um story tracy and good to hear this account from you. tracy home was i thank you for speaking to us. you're welcome bye and match it for now, but be sure to check out other stories on d. w dot com, forward slash africa, or on our social media accounts. we'll see you again next time, bye for now. the
