7:34 am
. hi for me. okay. and jewel in the stream on today's program, we get spend time with some of the al jazeera as best correspondence for look behind the scenes, the stories that they have been reporting as we speak to john holman, in mexico, he's been reporting figures on call tell violence in a recent film, he explores what happens to civilians court in the crossfire in germany, once in a generation slots have cause death and destruction steadfast and is standing by to tell us more about that story. and i'll be looking out for your comments and questions and i you chat. so share your thoughts right here. we start with katherine soy. he's been reporting in ethiopia. katherine recently gained exclusive access to the trigger. i am our region. i'm horace special forces and a few p and federal police. a checkpoint in my car,
7:35 am
they're passing through require identification papers who won't rare, regional government guided trip. but he didn't filming the forces and a militia called funnel was difficult. the town claimed by both the em. hara anti grand ethnic communities was under t guys administration before the war started in november. it's one of the was the tri cities happened. hundreds of people were killed. the communities accuse each other fighters of committing it happening. so i joins is now for added, catherine. they say good to see you. when you were reporting from the take i am are region on the board that just getting access is tricky. that's challenging. tell us more about that. yes, it's very frustrating and very tricky indeed. as you mentioned, we got to the success from the higher regional government and you may wonder why, because you're talking about western te gray. these areas we're talking about
7:36 am
mocked in west and to gray. but in the 8 months of the war, i'm higher forces have occupied this territory. they say that this area belonged to them historically and the pony until the 19th and the t p l. s t. great. people have ration front to power the the next. this land to t gray, so the mars said is the land. but then that the gradient who are now the t great forces were now pushing south and west. they want to reclaim back those lines. they say that them higher forces you took advantage of this conflict to force will need takeover those stary tories. so it is a huge alarm dispute. and now because it's under that ministration of om hara, we sought to authorization from the i'm her a leadership. but even with the authorization,
7:37 am
we had to go with binders with guns and it was also very difficult even we both mind as to film a checkpoint, those pictures that you showed there are actually pictures that we form secretly because it wouldn't let us full menu of their forces, they have a militia co founder as well. they wouldn't let us back. and it was also very difficult to get a sense of, you know, whether these, the people we were talking to, the villages that when i grant that as well, it was very difficult for us to tell whether you know, that was giving us information independently and without fear because we're surrounded by august minded. when we were there, a town called mera. it's one of the contested ones. and before the conflict tomorrow, in my car, dra, which you showed there with the, with the, with a mass graves to grands and higher people leave side by side before this war. so a lot of the grand top lead the some that have been left the when we were there,
7:38 am
the regional, the local administrators organized this protests by this, the grand in support of hire as it was very hard for us to, you know, really get maybe it was even today it's a catherine was just just, you know, the cameras. let me asking, let me ask you this because he did a very important interview with the maurice deputy president and trying to keep up with the politics. and the history in ethiopia is difficult, is challenging, but in less than a minute, you nailed it in this report. let me show buddy f, have a look at the regional vice president shoes as a 985 map that places march of the dispute territories in our region. the borderline have however, since been redrawn he thousands when the t cry people's liberation front or left to power next to the land to cry. we have never ever accepted the amount of people in
7:39 am
the regional government hasn't in dorset we have never been consulted. so whenever you say historical dispute, it takes us some years to behind. and one time it was there, another time it was here. that's what you call dispute. it has never been. so it couldn't be just a dispute. it was rather taken unit 30 by the time period. if it was decided, katherine, i'm going to put some questions to you from our stream audience. this is a war of conflicting ideology, says this tweet unitary by pm api and semi autonomous ethnic federalism by the t p l. s. the pm sees ethnic federalism as a root of all if you can. evil's while t p l f. these otherwise, this is, this view is idea, this is their opinion. but how can these sites and reconcile is the question catherine? well, for me,
7:40 am
i think at this point it's very difficult to see an immediate reconciliation. or if i have taken such hotline positions all accusing each other of ethnic cleansing and things like that, it seems very much like a supremacy battle to gray, to gray, you know, leadership accusing. i'm hara, administration of you know, just trying to expand their territory to, to expand beyond their territory. then we have this line, this, these we are talking about the reach recall to aligned in this whole conflict. you know, it's not just higher as and to gray and we are also seeing now other regions that were not previously involved in that t grind conflict. now, getting involved in seeing, you know, regions like, or like so my region or saying they're sending their own forces, sending their own militia to come. and you know, for join this war and fight alongside government troops and hire for this to fight
7:41 am
that to gran defense forces. so when you seeing this kind of thing, it worries a lot of people because it's taking a very dangerous stand items. the dangerous asked nick on if i may say alright, pass and i'm going to ask you 2 questions very, very briefly, very quickly. one comes via video comment. and another one comes from youtube. let's start with a video comment. mobilizing mofas's, consisting of malicious and regional forces as into the conflicts represent new homes of estimation and interest and intractability implicating the entire country . it's either crystallizing the fact that no doable solution is likely to come from either of the warring parties to continue mobilizing towards war and buy them to jo error. is there a job or solution from noah on youtube watching right now? do you think there will be a peaceful resolution between amara and take like, what insight did you came from your reporting very quickly, catherine?
7:42 am
well, again, what i spoke to the deputy president of, you know, i'm har. region again he, she's position was very hotline. he said, yes, we need a doable solution. we need a peaceful resolution. if the planting season now people need to be in depth on they can be evicted, kicked out of their homes and things like that. but then on the other hand, he says that, well, we cannot watch as our people are being killed and people have been evicted. he called a point, you know, people in the villages in the front line area say, you know, the fam, as the people in the villages, i come out before and you saw that i asked him, are you telling them to arm themselves to 1000000000 the philippines and disability when you say yes because what can they do if you go to the other side, the guy, the leadership very saying the same thing. you know, the leadership, people are being young, people are being recruited and trained and armed. so at this point, it's very difficult to see i solution a peaceful solution,
7:43 am
even if they're or say they want peace. this is not about the gram. this is not about hire a people. this is about the leadership, it's about the politics. thank catherine. so i, for sharing your reporting with us and taking us into scenes of the story as well. we move now to western europe, where flooding has left close to 200 dead. and almost 1000 people unaccounted for. he stopped his that boston reporting earlier in the week from a start in germany. it was rush hour when the water quickly inundated highway number 265 near ash, not catching unexpected drivers and passengers by surprise. soldiers and rescue workers tried to reach dropped cars, finding out if everyone made it out in time. we hope that they made it out of their cars, but we are not sure. and we can guarantee that the perhaps people in the
7:44 am
cars, we could not check all cars. and if you see the quality of the water, also the check with diversity of no use looking at how challenging it is to flee this one highway. it becomes clear that the recovery will take time. so hudson is joining us from bond. how low that that this story was literally close to home. we often say, oh, this is close to 100, but it, it really was. can you explain why? it was very close to home because this is happening just an hour or 2 hours away from where i was born. this is like my, my home area. and i went on holidays when i was a child to the locations here in the western part of germany. and that was also happening in the south of the netherlands, where my parents are living. and that's actually why i jumped in the car so quickly when i heard about the slots, because i got messages for my parents that their village was under water. and that really struck me because i thought, why is this happening now?
7:45 am
and i knew of course about the torrential rains, but i also never expected these kinds of flux. and my 1st idea was climate change. climate change is now getting a physical phase here in europe. so if i'm going to show a couple of pictures, because if you look in the background, we look behind that and her wellington's you see so much there is chaos in the background. i'm just going to show a couple more pictures here. this is you're getting ready to stand up a piece, the camera this. what is this upside down? this vehicle is upside down. you can see the destruction. and again here, a vague hoping, flipped. when you 1st got onto the scene, what was your reaction? because you have cover floods in other parts of the well, particularly in asia. so you're not a new comer to what flood destruction can do. node. the 1st thing i thought it looks like the phenomena, the aftermath of the tsunami in indonesia and 2004,
7:46 am
which i covered extensively. and i never really expected to find these kinds of images, of course, so close to home in europe and people there also are completely taken by surprise, day new only disaster from television, from asia, from africa. but now in this kind of destruction, they've never seen before. as you say, cars were all over the place. they were swimming from other village villages. there were trees, like everywhere they were just taken out like they were. they were weighing nothing and the reference overflowed. the bridge is broken, lots of houses damage, and one story that really, really struck me very deeply was this story where we 1st went and that was a house for this able people and we were 12 people died there. i mean, we really wanted to find this place and it was nearly impossible. we couldn't find it because it was not everywhere. roads were blocked. and then finally, when we were shooting the whole day at the end of the day we found is building. and
7:47 am
we found the story there of the neighbors who saw what happened, that the water came up into the 1st floor and there was no evacuation because the, the, the authorities were completely overwhelmed. so they had been evacuating some part of the town. but that particular part wasn't evacuated, so people were still stuck there. and they were in the for the 1st on the 1st floor on the ground floor. and they couldn't escape, they were just simply stuck and they, they drowned sadly. so i'm going to show an image from your instagram, have a look here on my laptop stuff. so obviously seen this, but there's something here that i wanted to show you. divers court by surprise, the drivers on the highway court by surprise. it's supplies elements on i want to build on. this is just the cost us to have, have a listen to his story, also close to home for him and his parents. and then just coming off the back of a, if you would, his jeff, as if i said, i'm really used to looking at data regarding floods impacting rivers in society.
7:48 am
but just last week, i found myself on the other side of the data when my parents called me to stress telling me that their home was being flooded. and just seeing how emotionally draining physically and financially traumatizing into their own entity. that was just such a stark reminder of how devastating floods can be on people and communities. of course, if we look at the big picture in europe, there were relatively lucky and belgium and in germany, especially hundreds of people have died and communities have been erased from the math due to a lack of adequate and time. the warning as a researcher, i believe that as a society we have failed people, and a good heart is useless. decision makers do nothing, action upon receiving warnings. yes, exactly. it's not only the warning system that failed. i spoke about the evacuations earlier, but a lot of people also wondering what have we been doing against climate change against global warming?
7:49 am
of course, in the western part of germany, when i was driving around there and i was driving between the countries, i went back and forth to the netherlands as well. and you see the industrial areas you're passing the coal power plants that are still operating there. so a lot of people have also been asking questions, you know, what is the impact of all this industry here in this part of the world on this changing climate? and i think this is really where this discussion will, will go to i think this will really have a long term impact on the discussion on climate change in the netherlands in germany, in belgium, in the western part of europe. that i am just going to wrap up i segment together. i know that the volunteers are making a difference on the ground. what is the latest that you are seeing that you've been reporting for us on out a 0? well, it was overwhelming. today i spend the whole day in a place by moon's the eiffel, which was one of the worst hit and i'm going to merkel was actually there. and
7:50 am
people there was so busy working just hundreds of volunteers. they were lining up. they made this human change. they had buckets who are passing it on one by one with their bare hands. and while i'm going to merkel was in the back talking to officials, they kept working and they were actually angry and irritated. they started talking to me like, why is she still there? we need to work and she's actually blocking everything that way. i can go every side, i can, we have work to do stuff. i know that was exactly what the step. thank you so much for showing your reporting with us. we will continue to watch it on out 0. finally, we had to the mexican state of metro account. he was eclipse from the al jazeera film, mexico's killed. but
7:51 am
the reality is that the less is, is that cool? here? a brutal roofless, they kill police and disappeared civilians across the country. and now they're invading mich, what can we hear? it was what that means for an already traumatized population and who is going to stop them? we're heading into a woods and to john home and joins us now from mexico sticky. john, i have to ask you, how did you get an interview with her lisco new generation called tell lead a how, how is that even possible? just just watch and there. it's a little bit of an out of body experience. now you see on the screen this one thing and it was quite and we were actually i think we would try me at the time to get to it sounds good and that town is, is more stream than anything else i've seen in mexico and i've been here like 3
7:52 am
years now, it's basically under siege between 2 different criminal groups. we've got that group the least new generation called to the one side and then it's being blocked up on the other side by another group. couple is needles. so to get and we have to drive down the road over the mountains, and that was a road the, this is going to generation called so controlled. and so we were going along, we passed this village where they had this will to the baseball peroration, we'd already awesome emissions go down that road. and they, they said yes, we sort of knew we rotate to do that message. go down the guys with a check for it and then we've got a really good producer until they got a really good time or person was like i'm just one part of the team. and then more than anything they've managed to persuade the guy that the checkpoint, we'd love to do an interview with you. we want to hear what you got. and she said
7:53 am
okay, so you need to go to this class and asked her to be in the middle of the way. i think the other 2 was sort of like yes. okay, this is, this is the one in the in your film. there were moments where as a view i was afraid because you looked afraid. one of them was when you were in an abandoned village, just going to play that clip frost stream or you just have a look. you can feel the initial ourselves at least a new generation the ah
7:54 am
ah ah, the 3 be there's no one as soon yeah, that was, that was just frightening me at the time and it looks on the video. i saw the video went up on youtube and i saw one person commenting saying, oh, typical journalist. and i just want to assure that person this is what they did on
7:55 am
the screen. we'll run back to the late and start with the camera person was the only person that didn't want to leave the house even though we heard gunshots around. and apparently people told us off, which that's what we call. so basically just far in the as to when to let you know that, that, you know, going to go nosing around one of the, i think that was when they were bad. and so basically, so i like to as well after that in the most of the she would just, we could see someone's house and the whole village was like, you know, just over the left side there was some catch the been met and people just let everything run and the whole road was like, you know, i mean you just saw these places where people just had to abandon their lives. so space, we took it about my fear of the moment and here of moment. good. just imagine where to live to live and to have to go, you know, it wasn't just
7:56 am
a story. the cartels you were telling you, telling the story of the people who abandoned their villages you had to move on. and you took us to the border and you connected the dots between the call tells the funny thing for territory. and then ordinary people were trying to live in that situation. as one family, they have my laptop, just taken a still from your film. and i'm wondering what happened to this family. they fled because that young teen daughter just here, the cartel kidnapped her for a couple of days and they were afraid what happened to this family? exactly, as you said it and we met them in on the, on the mexican border and they were really bright. they were the only people that would speak to us actually on camera about what happened. and then just this week, actually for me, we heard back from the tisha, who's the mother to the major out, the one that holds it together. and they actually managed to get over to the united
7:57 am
states, asking for silence. and they're currently in us. so that was such a relief to hear that because we've been, we so many families that had to flee. most of them, it was because and so i have to say produce, produce a dissenting capital. really stood out for it and they just got in so many testimonies. if they wouldn't speak on camera, not people. so the photos of that song, relatives in the mood, people that just said we just happily everything just the same time that you know, they went in the bed of night in the car. they left everything behind. they were living 6 of them in 2 tents included not that would go into 10 on the border. they just and i asked them how he's feeling right now. and they would say, well, we're happy with life with together i just call i think it's difficult to imagine that kind of danger and that kind of fear. and they said they could never go back.
7:58 am
so i suppose a happy story for them. but i reckon there was a lot of people on the border ways of migration from me because i think the a lot of people that wouldn't have the same success goes john, we're going to leave it off. but i am going to point everybody who's watching the string today, to have a look here on my laptop. cuz i want you to watch this film, the full report, living in mexico's kill zone in 25 minutes, john and his team take us inside to mexico inside metro can. and really some of the difficulties that people are having there. thank you john. thank you. step. thank you, catherine. thank you for watching. if there are any stories you'd like us to do on the stream, you can tweak us as a stream. i'll see you next time. take everybody. ah frank assessments isn't an argument for suggesting the ministrations playing
7:59 am
a long game. it's very much of a warm embrace of the iran nuclear deal because of us domestic politics informed opinions, schools and shelters have been reduced to rubble. how do you think this shapes a generation and the politics then that life has been shape? why vitamin the in depth analysis of the dates global headlines inside story on our jazeera talk to al jazeera, we roam, did you want the un to take and who stopped you? we listen, see the whole infrastructure and being totally destroyed. we meet with global news makers and talk about the stories that matter on our sera. sera is here to report on the people often ignored, but who must be heard? how many other channels can you say will take the time and put extensive thought into reporting from under reported areas?
