workers al-jazeera is in tokyo with the latest. and did the big show as we have been. very much of the i've been in there and the problem with very secure way for it is that most of the years there in the countryside we've maybe not it was three . months and it's going to mean the board. of defense forces go out of the fast there more than forty thousand troops have been dispatched to go to those areas it means that it's difficult for them to do the patients to help that's done to people and also even with the using helicopters it would be difficult to learn in such places and taking into consideration that most of the years that i think. we all believe that i feel. that it's the people that many of us for it's not depending on the local people themselves and neighbors about you know that they are stranded or they know they are missing and to know
8:08 pm
that about ninety eight people could raise gets more within the coming hours or days and there are more than fifty eight people still missing until now journalists have been ordered to stand trial in me and marm accused of breaking the country's colonial era secrecy law coutts while lone who worked for the reuters news agency were arrested in december while investigating the killing of muslim broken jump they pleaded not guilty and say police planted evidence on them florence that we has more from kuala lumpur. the two reuters journalists have been charged under the official secrets act which carries a maximum penalty of fourteen years in prison the case will now go to a full trial which means it could be several weeks possibly even months before a final verdict is given now the defense lawyer had argued that this case ought to be thrown out because the prosecution failed to prove that these men are a threat to national security that the so-called secret documents they had on them
8:09 pm
were already in the public domain the court also heard testimony from a police witness that a senior officer had all of this his subordinates to plant the documents on one of the reports is to trap him yet these two men have been charged now and there are several things troubling about this case apart from the circumstances of these journalists arrest one concerns the issue of press freedom these two men have been arrested they've been denied bail since their arrest in december for simply doing their jobs as reporters the second concerns what's happening in rakhine state as some rights activists put it these two reporters have been locked up for trying to expose the truth about what's happening there where the myanmar military has launched a crackdown since august twenty fifth causing more than seven hundred thousand ethnic minority to flee to bangladesh to escape persecution the u.n. itself has described the crackdown as containing elements of genocide as
8:10 pm
a textbook example of ethnic cleansing yet the myanmar government and the military continues to deny or downplay the seriousness of what's happening in rakhine state and as human rights watch puts it the authorities in myanmar appear to be falling back on an old tactic of locking up those who are trying to tell the truth germany's chancellor is meeting the chinese premier in berlin talks between angola merkel and leaky chang will focus on trade follows the us president donald trump's imposition of new tariffs on goods from both china and the e.u. both leaders have criticized trump's move with china accusing him of starting a global trade war dominic cain has more from berlin. as these two leaders meet the areas that they agree upon all very clear and apparent and basically it's opposition to many of the decisions and the policies put forward by president donald trump and his administration they are united in their belief that they don't
8:11 pm
want to see a trade war between barack countries and the united states of america and they fear the batteries what may be coming to pass that also consider that they share a repudiation of mr trump's policy regarding environmental protection the fact he's pulled acts of global cold on the environment and then of course there's also the policy that was agreed between the p five plus one and iran the permanent five security council members the united nations plus germany agreeing with chatter on about the nuclear issue fact is mr trump has pulled his country out of those a cold that these two leaders do not want to see that happen to that deteriorate any further the trying to keep the policies together where so in the news conference it really interesting to see how many areas they actually agree upon there are one or two areas they disagree on clearly on human rights the german chancellor feels the chinese have more to do as i say as we await the new news
8:12 pm

two weeks after they went missing the first boys have been rescued from a cave in thailand there was an operation that involved many divers and experts from around the world this is inside story. hello there and welcome to the program i'm laura caro rising waters for ling oxygen levels and no easy way out it's a treacherous situation for anyone especially twelve children and the football
8:22 pm
coach who've been trapped in a cave in thailand it's a story that has gripped the attention of much of the world and on sunday several of the trapped boys were successfully rescued and taken to a nearby hospital for treatment and divers guided the boys through hours of walking crawling and swimming with an oxygen tank out of a deep cave complex the teammates along with their coach had been trapped for more than two weeks the rest of the team is still making its way out but monsoon rains off threatening the dangerous mission shala ballasts takes a look now at some of the challenges of this operation. the tom one caves in northern thailand in the chiang rai province near the border with me n. ma and laos it is one of the longest caves in the country stretching ten kilometers through the door mountain range the boys are stuck just past a cabin known as party of beach now looking inside the mountain one point five
8:23 pm
kilometers from the main entrance navy seal team to set up a base in a cabin and known as china the three three kilometers in a semi in junction it forks off to an exit but that's flooded the cave widens to large cabins and narrows to passages so small that rescuers need to crawl to get through the passageway climbs and drops which means that when it rains water builds up in these steps four kilometers in is passing a bitch the boys are about four hundred meters after the spot and eight hundred to a thousand meters below the surface to get the boys out through the flooded patches rescuers have attached a guideline and daughters emergency oxygen tanks every twenty five to fifty meters the plan is that as they swim one navy diver will be beside them another one behind keep in mind some ways don't know how to swim there are strong currents and the water is dark and muddy they being given wet suits boots helmets and
8:24 pm
a scuba mask but no tank the proposal being they'll get from their dive buddy supply now take at least five hours to get each boy out so and all and may take a couple of days to complete the risk you. well an extraordinary rescue let's join our guest to talk about it joining us from goes in the u.k. mike tipton professor of human and applied physiology at the extreme environment laboratory at the university of portsmouth he joins us via skype in london and dreads unless child psychologists at king's college london and consultant morley hospital and from all good. also via skype neil bennett he's a diver and managing director at new zealand diving will get to you all in just a moment but first let's talk to bill white house he's a spokesman for the british cave rescue council and has been in direct contact with the british divers helping with the rescue in thailand he joins us on the line now
8:25 pm
from buxton in the u.k. so bill is what a relief to hear that these first boys have been coming out and the head of shed jewel as well what are you hearing about the rescue efforts. yes increase in incredible. good news the operation to bring the mouse it was is extremely dangerous and frankly very risky. and there's been a lot of planning going on in the last few days. in preparation for if the tiles or if he's gave the go ahead to to try don't have rescue. to the way to do it well whatever way they have done is they seem to have got it right because if they were if they however many of come out now if this is the process is they use work for them then god willing there's a chance that it'll work for the others as well so it's excellent use.
8:26 pm
we were as we are recording this program on sunday night the whole time it is six point we believe that is being brought out you are in townsville and you with the british dive of who are involved in this operation the two men who festival found the boys what role are they playing in this part of the operation in this part of the operation well we can't be sure of course because once things once things started of course being communicator that are probably underground now rick rick sanchez in and problems and who were the two divers who first gone through to the boys. a while ago now isn't it. still on the site one site i don't know for certain that were involved in today's dive i would be astonished if there weren't and then there are there are now on site. seven british cave divers. and there are one some from other
8:27 pm
nationalities and there are the the navy they're trying a the seal drivers who are not cave divers they open water divers who have been operating for not more to drive and i have very unusual you know. and vironment for them and what they've been doing is truly heroic. and it's very sad one of them lost their lives during the process the other day in the ok i mean this is a very is cave diving is a very serious and different type of dry diving to open water diving there are all sorts of considerations that come in about the way equipment is used the different kinds of risks and things which have had to be built into any of the rescue operation and bear in mind that these children are not and they are
8:28 pm
listening not cave divers but they're not divers and not even swimmers i gather ok the white house we appreciate you taking the time the to join us at the top of our program here inside story thanks very much and let's go straight now to talk andre in london six point out at this stage of course this program will be airing and he will be hearing of more boys coming up on the timing too. i mean what an enormous sense of relief for them and for the families and they for the rescue is. fantastic news and. i just talk us through what because those things i'm oceans all as you will as you know been rescued. i would expect that most of the children will be probably elated by the rescue after the longer deal that have been subjected over the past few days. many of them will
8:29 pm
probably become quite emotional i would expect actually most of them to experience some emotional symptoms over the next few days this mood become evident as being particularly irritable or becoming tearful of course they would be very happy but they will have very strong intense emotion to cope with that because lee was right they might we know that they are being flown straight to hospital by helicopter on the top hospitals in chiang rai region physically how are they likely to be well i understand alone again methinks seems unconfirmed that the first boys to come out were the ones that were regarded as the weakest so i suspect you know if people are able to distinguish how well the different boys are the ones are the weakest of probably the ones that are suffering most from dehydration malnutrition and perhaps even from hypothermia or getting cold so they
8:30 pm
there's nothing that should have happened to them physically that can't be corrected you know after the event i think probably the longer term consequences will be psychological rather than medical physiological ok you know that bodes well doesn't it if the weakest are being brought out fast and they have come out as quickly as they have it both well for the rest of the rescue operation. i'm allowed some of the we're going to climb to the as it's conditions deteriorate we're going to need stronger ones to deal with the more complicated situations so given the request of the first but i wasn't through but still transfers the monotony and sent them out in these years the scenes that spoke well for the person saved now have the risk. of course diving was always the big concern has part of this rescue operation what were the risks to the children who were having to dive and indeed
8:31 pm
the divers who were leading them well the some of. the pumping of the water has actually reduced that quite considerably allowing them to move out large sections really help the situation but. you've got to think of some of that some of those clay parts lying to some of the. meetings in march such is the poor four hundred metre three. boat so through possible chest injuries that sort of lead the premier on respiratory problems and then you have the narratives actually which in itself is probably the most disturbing part of it because it can work in school. but he preaches like a nuisance or on stand a building or a person shops and so if the stream of violent to be very even if they're visible it's we'll. show you how. these guys are actually facing
8:32 pm
probably the biggest challenge of a lot of strength. absolutely i mean from my limited experience of diving trying to remember to breathe normally it's very difficult when you're under water i understand that these boys are being fed with a full face mask which is easier than a mouthpiece. yeah i'm a little concerned that we are making not. just about the services but insist that they're not really environment one minute is that you seek out the mom to have the pool but a small gives that problem. is going to be in the law until you have one rescuer the challenger middle of the receiving line the opportunity to get that regulated back into their mouth is quite limited so we get enough of that possibility even if no not under how is it best to try and keep these boys calm.
8:33 pm
well i think first of all is it really important to find ways and words to explain fox very easily to them so think about the kind of communication the rest for might have with their own children and time and it's to find ways in which communication is clear and there for children know exactly what is going to happen what are the things that they can do if anything should go wrong so that they would know at least the facts secondly it's really important i think for a director to build some report with the children spend some time with them which i understand has happened over the past few days so that the children can learn about them and effectively find ways to trust them should.
