the past week. is he to fight to step up their assault on the problem? trying to put on a show some of its most advanced aircraft, technology and weapons go on display and do hi. peter stemmed with a thought, you a 3rd dropped a legal fight with boss learning around the grid and event us over there with him from a breakaway lead and detention since the champions leave the mfc j as they take on mention the city. ah, i love it. is again, are up to you from the computer. be a hot volcano in the spanish island of la palmer. seismic activity had eased off briefly on monday, but that increased a few hours later, the volcano has displaced nearly $7000.00 people. nicholas hank reports from la pon . awake again. it seems there is no stopping
1:02 pm
spain school, but if you have a cannick flo. earlier the giant crater fell silent, leaving an eerie comb in what were once lively coastal villages. it has caused so much destruction homes and memories of generations of families living on the volcanoes, foothill charge by the swelling and pouring lava as it inches towards the ocean. how to explain this last her grandchildren wondered andrea already guess concepcion, that the truth is, i'm very sad. everyone is losing their homes. the volcano keeps me up at night. this is a shock to all of us. panicked villagers are fleeing. others are staying put despite the dangers, almost 7000 people are displaced and cannot return to their homes. it is a very unpredictable iteration. is a very 10 sun. com at the same time. so they said this to manage this
1:03 pm
dress in a very long race, because this is not a speed rate for us. we are going to work 4 weeks with them. is the most difficult thing. experts fears what will happen when the lava of when 1000 degrees celsius reaches the cold atlantic ocean, a haze of toxic chemicals made up of sulfur dioxide, hydro, chlorine and volcanic acid will fill the air. this is likely to cause skin and i irritation breathing. the fumes can be fatal. shipping vessels have been advised to stay clear of the area to avoid being exposed to potential acid rainfalls. there is no escaping volcanic activity on the island of la paul. my look right behind me below in the sky is a cloud of ash from kimbry via high and we're in the south west of the island. here authorities have even started recording seismic activity with tremors, gaining intensity putting at risk the small village of wind caliente,
1:04 pm
on the edge of the cliff for engagement is horace, hotels have become shelters for the displaced schools are shut with authorities in the area calling on people to stay in doors, andrea watch is powerless, and unfolding tragedy rattled by the powerful sound of nature. well, its course, i live to nick now he's standing by 1st in la palmer, nick as we can see by the left shoulder. there is just relentless and it's showing no signs of stopping. that's right, no longer a river of love, but more a torrent of love are flowing towards the ocean. from birds view were only, it's 3, only 300 meters away from the cold atlantic ocean. the lava that's at a 1000 degrees celsius, the thermal shots that will follow. we'll see what scientists call here, allays of toxic fumes in the air. there has been increased size make
1:05 pm
activities on the south side of the volcano yesterday. 10 kilometers below ground. built in the mantle of the earth, just just beneath the surface there has been increased tremors that have been gaining in intensity. and that's really what's worrying scientists here is that in fact we are standing on a volcanic island and a volcanic range. but that love below that's been building up since allowed to rupture 2 generations ago. but it seems it needs to find a way out any way out. and that's creating more cracks around the cone that you see behind me. but it's certainly more seismic activity kilometers away from the come behind me. so there's kind of an increase of volcanic activity below ground on the surface is what you see right behind me. that has really scared the population. many people can find in their homes. others have been evacuating, waiting for that moment when the lava is expected to drop into the ocean. 47000000
1:06 pm
metric tons of lava has been spewed out from this volcanoes, since the option started last sunday week from sunday. and, and so what's worrying also, scientists and vulcan ologist are observing. this is for the moment the fluids going in one direction down the slope. but if this russian continues, and if the cone were to crumble, then the love of flow would spread around this cone. so there acutely looking at what we're looking right now, the lava is expected to hit the ocean around, scientists believe around 1900 local time, but there's no way to really tell this remain the non predictable situation. nick, so what precautions to be taken for when the lava does hit the sea? and what about those who already lost their homes? what's happened to them? i mean, they're really watching policy. what's happening right now?
1:07 pm
right behind me. the week from sunday it was a luscious green landscape because the volcanic eruption there is a silver lining. when you live on the volcanic island, it is lush and green. there were banana plantations. there were farming communities, generations of them living on the slope behind me. look at it now, this is not just their, their, the memories of a lifetime that's been lost. this is generations of memories that have been lost in the entire communities that are currently in trauma that are grieving the loss of their land on, on the more pragmatic front the, the authorities here are asking the population to remain endorsed, to stick to very much what were the covert 19 restrictions wearing a mouth goggle, covering your skin for the plumes of, or the cloud of ash above us. when, although the airport here has reopened, most commercial flights are grounded because we just don't know or authorities just
1:08 pm
don't know which direction or where the wind will blow and how this will affect the air quality. now the ocean and also the ground here, nick, terrifying, scenes. frightening seems to talk to nick in the public. thank you. british soldiers have been put on stand by to deal with the case fuel crisis for days long queues of formed petrol stations. and many have been forced to close. a shortage of truck drivers is causing the problem and now ami drivers could end up behind the wheel. andrew simmons reports from london a new working weekend. this isn't the normal london morning. good luck. the fuel station here ran dry 2 days ago. it's been waiting for this moment. tanka drivers are in short supply not the fuel, whatever the results, the same misery for some not kind of buying a to buy buy top g ran out of fuel 100 meters from the petro pumps. after
1:09 pm
a search that started in the early hours. and i was very emotional, so i can, i tried, i tried all these up to vision necessarily. i cry that i feel probably not some people who are going for assuming their wife lives disrupted this driving instructor trying to get fuel to prepare his learners for their driving tests. that's about 56. this is kind of between now and next week. really, truly terrified what might happen to them for these guys. so i've been going around like headless chicken about linda. nothing. an opinion polls suggests that more than 60 percent of voters feel, the government is mishandling the situation. and some of the messaging for ministers isn't helping the public mood. the only reason that we have an issue at the moment with some petrol stations, not petula, for course, is that people are buying petra and they wouldn't. the most important thing
1:10 pm
everyone can do is just get back to normal, fill that card up as they normally would, and not by petrol, if they needed, it would seem to be wishful thinking that this crisis is going to go away without government action crisis. what crisis has been the government stance up to now? now it's changing because people don't like thing referred to as buyers. in a situation such as this, there is a tide of public defense. and so the pressure is on the government as the tension on the for courts increases. some companies have introduced rationing competition measures have been stopped, so that few companies can corporate own logistics. another move the government has made is to try backing up u. k. tank drivers with foreigners, no longer able to work here because of that short term. these is are available for 5000 foreign truck drivers. it isn't county to work. andrew simmons, which is in london, well as the writers on the situation to speak to john hall who's outside
1:11 pm
a petrol station. jonah, not a lot going on behind you. what's the fuel supply situation is morning. well, no. twos behind the knick knacks because there's no pets, really nose pumps. the special station is closed. there are plenty of use elsewhere fuel stations that do have fuel pumps, but this situation certainly ongoing and no immediate sign of relief overnight. on monday, it was a statement that by fuel retails suppliers, including b, p shell, s. so trying to reassure people, it said that there is no shortage of fuel. say, there is plenty of fuel at the refineries and terminals. they said they seem to believe that as much as anything else. andrew indicated it there. this is being caused by panic. buying people heading to the pumps to put in their tax, whether they need it or not. and that once that has a baited wants, the people inclined towards panic, buying have stopped panic, buying well at that point,
1:12 pm
supply could once again begin to meet demand. the problem, of course, is this is not something you can lay wholly at the feet. all public behavior, it is a result of a wider supply chain disruption caused by a shortage of drivers, fuel tank drivers. in this case, a tv haulage laurie drive is across the economy. elsewhere that is about a lot of european drive is going home as a result of breaks it and cove it and not coming back. it's also about poor pay and working conditions in this country. meeting with british workers aren't hurrying to feel the feel the gap. now the government again is andrew pointed up, has come up with a plan to slightly ease immigration rules by offering temporary 3 month visas to try and tie some of those european drivers back. that's already been dismissed as being wholly inadequate. and amiga incentive, indeed, there are plans to extend licenses with are about to expire, but all in all its meant that despite them denials on monday, the government has to admit that the army has asked to be put, has been asked to be put on stand by 75 fuel tankers plus $75.00 more drive is
1:13 pm
being trained up to do this sort of thing. it will take some time and you know, dire warnings about medical personnel, emergency personnel, no longer able to be mo bile fuel prices. got prices and shortages elsewhere across the economy as i described, nothing spells crisis quite like adding to all of that by saying, even suggesting that the army is about to be called in to help the jania. thanks very much. i jehovah in london. let's pick the song we can speak to jonathan les, who's also in london, he's a deputy director of the think tank of british influence. jonathan, thanks for joining us. yes, the army on standby is never a great look as it seems to be a total shambles. what's going wrong here? well, what's going wrong is the morality taylor brett's. it's mary country basically. and told is what both foreign word goes to the boards and welcome and that we could stand on our own 2 feet and have that control. and then they basically listen to
1:14 pm
the british government. and last and now the government, it's been r t, it's all gonna come back. so the problem with this day did the government not admitting that is a problem? and as any thought to tally you, county q republic monday, that she diagnosed it. and so this is not going to result by 5000 can pre, these is daniel is saying this is now a baked in problem in our economy, where we don't have the workforce, we need to keep our economy going. so no one predicted the hgtv drivers would, would shut off valve to breaks it. the problem was we predicted that that would be feed suits jays, a lot of people thought and the futures as well. a lot of people thought the main reason for that would be increased checks that the border the coast is still part of the reason because it's now no longer profitable for not a joy days to come to prison because of the increased bureaucracy in doing so. and jenny was saying the condition was i very bad. it's really the point that they be
1:15 pm
coming back still to be exploited. but even more than before, because now there was how few employment and settlement rights because we're asked a single market. why would someone come to breton for 3 months to be kicked out on christmas eve when they can? what is school european fixed and elsewhere? yeah. short term because many would argue that it's a confluence of events that you know, adapting to the new. well, that is, brett said, as well as dealing with his pandemic. absolutely. and the problem here is that's obviously the time to make is partly responsible because it delayed h t b training and tests for example. but the government knew about this, the government knew about the time to make it new about the pressure on global supply chains in 2020 and it had the option to delay breaks that the eat us up city willing the labor into after panoramic and the government refused that so that she makes it was the government because they knew what was coming and it
1:16 pm
started to aggravate the situation ra, mitigates it. so the thing is, will things improve or is, is the u. k, heading for the winter of discontent? well, the, the problem is that it's not just the future because of the gas price, the rising again, not only because it breaks it partly because the price that the kids are now outside of the collective bargaining of the e. i'm again to the sources and shops, not the feel, but in essential good running up to christmas. so this is really a complement of issues as the say. and the government doesn't really have any answer to it because the up to it will be the rejoined the thing, the market and allow the full influx of labor with, with, with better conditions ideally, or they're not prepared to admit that. because doing so would then be to admit the leaving the single market and ending freedom of movement with the mistake date. jonathan less appreciate that. thanks very much indeed for that analysis. i thank you. thanks for the more still ahead on the news are including some students and
1:17 pm
jurors bonus day to take no final exams, but violence is kept many out of the classroom. a german politicians are holding talks that they try to form a coalition government the n b a season is just 3 weeks away. in 1900 vaccinations is dividing opinion. peter will have more in sport ah, let's move on to get this done. where reports from couple suggest the taliban is planning to implement a constitution from nearly 6 decades ago. the new rulers want to apply it only where it doesn't conflict with their version of the islamic law. let's go straight to the whole bar in couple 100. tell us more about this. well, nick, the taliban are saying basically that because this is a crucial moment. and because the understand the under mounting pressure by the
1:18 pm
international community to form a national unity government that would pay the way to drafting new laws, new constitution, new elections that would in a demo democracy. that is not happening because for the time being the government, the enter government in place is predominantly led by by taliban. and therefore they do understand that it needs to be something to prevent it. public vacuum. and the, i think for this particular reason that they would embrace the constitution of 964 . but they would insure that in the article that institute, that because the constitution does not comply with the chevy are lo, will be changed. why they're doing this? because there were 3 major institutional announcements in the history of i've got a 2004. it was the post taliban era, $998.00 with italy, about what impala and the declared. these lumnick eminent of god, his time,
1:19 pm
and the taliban. and what level, how much discipline lead to over $964.00 was that constitution that came into being after conservative religious leaders came to power, made a new constitution that favor the way for the constitutional monarchy and i've got it. so what are the tally been trying to say by this? first of all, they think we don't recognize all that political institution that existed before after we were evicted of, of god, if that 2001 all the way through the 2021. the same time they think that will go back to 1964. but we will ensure that if we have to be in sync with a very basic tenet of islamic shallow, well, for the time being that taliban is led by, hey, but to law, that the supreme leader of the but which means that here we'll have up. so let's say up to the power over all the state institution and over the constituent if it's
1:20 pm
something which is going to send reassuring messages to the international community . i don't think so. because the prevailing sentiment until a few weeks ago was that basically the taliban should be talks with all the different components of the gun society, the opposition of the different ethnic groups, women to try to agree on how to move forward. that could be conducive to more genuine talk about and national unity government. it's only then that you can talk about election and drafting and you can situation so they do the lateral approach by that sounded by that it's likely going to fail to appease the concerns among the international community and millions of afghans here. thanks very much indeed for that update. has my brother in couple enough comes let's move on to chin as you know, where a group of political parties is announced a coalition to oppose the president. the group says that case, he has lost his legitimacy accusing him of
1:21 pm
a qu last rate. the president's announce he would rule by decree and ignore parts of the constitution. that's after he set the prime minister in suspended parliament in july. but he says his actions were necessary to counter economic and political crises. i, let's get more on me as we can bring in that should be felt in tunis. he's a political commentator and former parliamentary officer. so this new coalition is being formed. what could happen next? what would happen next? maybe you know, it's in a few days been the same. the picture is quite know becomes more and more clear engineers. yeah, we're, the president gathering on the powers and opposing game political part is a trying together. whether, for example, the for actual political parties, names the center left parties, 3 of them and the democrats current. and also
1:22 pm
the family can park in addition to may be kind of right wing and the bird party doing this. they're trying to be either and maybe we'll see another or let's see. and others joining them. a few days ago, the secretary jar of the workers party, the former communist party, as said that there are books, for example, with the current. and we will observe for sure coalition is the same time against the law and the former ruining parliamentary coalition and also against the president. i fi, authoritarian the read i've as they call it. and as in the see and now by the last presidential order, 117. okay, so what, what, what am i asking really is what, what can the tactics be now? so they want comes the country's, the constitution to be respected in apartments be reinstated. but how can they make
1:23 pm
that happen? actually, it's quite clear if the count on the board and bucket or support is rather we better thing toward mr. sky if it's quite obvious, even even according to recent balls. but maybe when we did the pick up crisis, we are going to see the ethics of it's in the upcoming which and non they would seize maybe the opportunity to show that unfortunately, even by a power grab even by the gathering or the powers prison fight is unable to find the real crisis of the phoenicians that are social problems, economy, etc, and may be to nations after having these crisis and losing a lot of they are at a purchase or an economy privileges. they will, they, they have also lost them for the may be some of their freedoms with this power. so that's maybe could be their techniques in the coming months and weeks, but they've,
1:24 pm
they've gone only now on the popular sport, but for support, even according to recent ball, is in favor of prison by decisions so far. so how threatened in your view is case aid's position? susan, can you please repeat the question, how it threatened is case aid's position? do you think? i think i fight position is threatened and so far by we cannot make issues, but we're facing. we've seen some days in, for example, the sort of some of the school school teachers and yesterday, and the salary of rhetoric, people are part of them. but that's where the talks even on social media and especially with international support. you know, rumors, for example, yesterday, senator murphy, as in the connecticut mirror, said it's quite clear, but now we must consider the american age security package has been easier. if i fi,
1:25 pm
it is not willing to go back to the democratic fast. so maybe the economic crisis and in addition to international pressures and g 's correlation here, and there are for me who maybe in the few weeks and more and more pressure on friends inside his spots. so far the population is, is with him. and i think i've said it's quite a few times, even on a 0, if it's an election has to be had today or tomorrow he would win it the 1st strauss will leave it there. so i mean, thanks very much indeed. my pleasure. thank you. but dozens of the rebels in government soldiers have been killed in fights in yemen. the battling for control of barrier, the last nor help i pro up and fight. is it time to hundreds of thousands of people who fled conflict in other areas of the country. he stepped up the effort to seize
1:26 pm
february. let's speak now to him for i had an associate professor in international conflict resolution at the institute for graduate studies. welcome surgeon program . first of all, give us some context. if you would, what is the significance of marriage? why is it the focus of such intense fighting? yeah, well, madame, is the but it's the g area actually that that's all which area who has have been actually trying to take this over for the past few years. and we have see a number of attacks in the past and intensification of the fighting there. because it's the main supply out of always the, to the capital on. and whoever is in can put in be on hold of the say the can determine,
1:27 pm
can actually improve see disposition and negotiation, but we can negotiation. so i think we this is expected to continue to see these 5 things taken over. right. so we see this up taken 5, mean while you as president joe biden, he's always made it very plain he, he wants to an end to this war, and he's now up in the anti by sending j sullivan, his national security adviser to talk to the saudi leadership yeah, i see we had some states and i said that the united states might consider reducing get support and the sort of this is expected. in fact, since the by the administration came to power. and that number of reasons for those probably in my view of the most important reason is that the u. s. policy re focusing on china as the primary objective. and it's for policy and containing
1:28 pm
china as we have seen lately. and nuclear, somebody in the office packed with those probably the u. k. in order to contain china. so of course withdrawal from again as fun. so we are seeing more disengagement engagement from the middle east in order to focus again on china. and then it's so that's, that could be one reason why they says considering good, do think of support. the other reason is, is that this, since the war started in yemen, this has been a humanitarian disaster. that the united states, especially the mccarthy party, being in power now by then that they want to distance themselves from such a humanitarian, a man, a man made disaster military capacity in yemen. so of course there is a lot of pressure within the congress and the mystic pressure to disengage from the war and yemen of that. so for the seasons,
1:29 pm
i think by then at this time in particular that we're seeing more of an intervention focusing on china. j sullivan, in terms of bringing the pressure to bear on the saudi leadership and, and that role in the war human. well, the important reason he is that it takes the 2 sides to end this war, but only the helpless. so i'm not sure that the south is only can stop the war, but because it requires both sides. and the problem here is that there's not only about those with who it is. it's about the lot of gender legion of conflict between iran and so that the host is strongly backed by iran. and unfortunately, the war in yemen became linked to the region on wisely and the regional conflict between iran so that so in order to end this war, you need both sides. you need child that have got and you need not just the whole
1:30 pm
of this, but also the back or iran. and of course, once you start talking about the regional dimension, then all of so many other issues come up like the nuclear, the the u. s. negotiations with iran, that's not making huge progress these days. so that's where we find ourselves stuck and conflict between whether to yemen or the regional dimension of it. for that reason, i think that the chances of succeeding and big this war, unless you, i was the regional factor that unfortunately it appreciate that to him. frank, with his perspective on the situation in yemen, thanks very much. thank you. the lead here and i was 0 suit on top military leader addresses, deepening to.
