6:13 am
the flattened, the village, headman said 90 percent of the buildings in for all his town have been destroyed. so i asked him why has an aide reached regions like this in towns like this. you yourself say, have been completely destroyed. he did not want to answer that question. he just handed the mike onto his head of civil protection, who said that they are trying to get the different departments having problems and logistical security. and from there, they'll get them onto the more remote villages, but they are arriving. but actually the heb 9. when we went to that village said he did actually phone the prime minister personally. and the prime minister said, you need to wait. so that's the situation with one of the thing that i asked him was something that he and his government have wanted to talk about that much. it's been a big elephant in the room. and that's the fact the along the only road from pull to prints where we are the capital woods, the disasters are in the southwest. there's a stretch of it that to gang to battling over. and it's very hard and very risky to
6:14 am
get anything through. and as a result, most of the aid has had to be lifted into that region. so i asked him, what is your government trying to do to make sure that that road is secure and that the problems that he said the road is better now that they will, they do have a security plan that they couldn't tell us in the press conference but the things that already approve catholics in her like her putting up black flags to demand justice for the victims of the 2019 easter bombings, many a angry of what they call the governments incomplete. a non transparent investigation into the attacks that kills more than 260 people. let's get more on this because speak to michelle fernandez, who is in nick on boat. now. good to see you talk us through why people are so angry. the fact that after 28 months since that tragedy, that they still are no better in knowing what exactly happened on that fit. release
