tornadoes, rib 2 entire neighborhoods in kentucky causing widespread damage. one of the towns badly hit is mayfield, where emergency crews are sifting through flattened homes. the governor has declared an emergency fearing dozens of people are dead. we believe our death toll from this event will exceed 50 kentuckians probably end up closer to $7200.00 loss lives. as well as kentucky, several storms and tornadoes hit at least for other states. now damage is also being assessed in our kansas, missouri, illinois, and tennessee. everyone's canada painting on the phones, the alerts. yeah, and the guy down there, 50 minutes were a storm head of the said a sounded loud, you know, deafening, almost in southern illinois, the roof partially collapsed at this warehouse for the giant retailer,

amazon trapping. dozens for workers. families waited outside for updates. he was returning to the warehouse dropped, his ran off and i haven't heard from him since i'm worried sick. i just want to know if he's okay, we can't get a hold of anybody. no managers, nothing. i. we have no idea what's going on. most of the tornadoes hit overnight for speed and proximity hidden by the darkness and heavy rain. now forecasters predict more extreme weather may strike over the weekend with potential storms, heading east carts, hello, priscilla young al jazeera. particle halo correspond with his following events for a while washington bureau, apache, i mean, these sorts of incidents often see state governors requesting household federal government offering it to those affected. where are we on the timeline? as far as that's concerned, will given as this scale and the scope of these storms is likely that those requests have already been sent to the white house will be watching to see the

president joe biden is in delaware. we're usually goes on the weekends us as a store of this magnitude might prompt him to return to the white house just because this is so unusual. just to give you a sense. somebody who lived in the midwest, you expect tornadoes, you prepare for them. you watched the weather very carefully. between march and about june and july. that's tornado season in tornado alley. this does happen occasionally. it december, but not like this. this is a huge storm to steve. your sense of the amazon facility in southern illinois. it knocked down a concrete wall. the basically the size of a football field. now we don't know exactly how large these tornadoes word, but again, having covered tornadoes to see this kind of damage, you're thinking it's probably going to be an e, f 3, possibly an e f for maybe even an e 5, because these are incredibly powerful storms and they're just absolutely massive that just the sheer scale of these storms again doesn't happen. we're looking at

more than 300 kilometers worth of damage and to see this sort of death toll. again, that makes us think that there was not just one tornado, but obviously many tornadoes popping up and the weather is going to proceed just to give you a sense. it's december 11th here in washington, dc. it's supposed to be cold. it's now about 24 degrees celsius and all this and you can feel the temperature dropping. so there's tornado warnings here. one thing that might have been the saving grace here in these storms is we believe they hit around 9 30 in the evening. having covered tornadoes again, if it's it in the middle of the night, that's when you see a much higher death toll because people are sleep. they don't necessarily get the warnings they don't know to go to their shelters and all of these places. cuz again, tornadoes are fairly common. they are, they do have shelters in most homes and most businesses. but to think about just the sure the scam severity of these tornadoes to hit that candle factory in kentucky. they saying that there were a 110 people there and the governor st maybe as many as 100 were able at work.

we're not able to get out. and so days a, it's just breaking, they're going to be doing a search and rescue. but this is an extraordinarily, a severe storm and a very, very unusual one party. thanks very much for the up that close will depend with you later on. of course, as we get more knees, let's cross over to victor. jen seni, he's a professor of meteorology at northern illinois university. he was research includes tornadoes and severe weather conditions that joins now live from sugar grove, in illinois, a professor, good tubby, with us on al jazeera. thanks very much for your time. as patio correspondent that said in washington dc, say the u. s. is no stranger to tornadoes, but this is incredibly unusual to happen in what mid december. but we're no stranger and yes they can happen in december. but we're probably looking at one of the most historic tornadoes in united states history. you have to go all the way back to march 18th. 1925. the infamous tri state tornado. that crossed 3 states.

the terrain last night crossed 4 states had started in arkansas, clipped portions of missouri, tennessee, and probably did its most prolific damage in kentucky as we just heard with, with potentially upwards of over 50 fatalities. this path length, i believe, when it's all said and done, we're waiting for the numbers to come in. will be a near 400 kilometer path length and very likely that this torina will be rated violence, which means e f, or e, f 5. i'm expecting winds tiguan speeds to be well over 200 miles per hour with this particular tornado. when you're analyzing tornadoes and you've been studying them for while yes, now, in terms of what happened over the last 24 hours a we looking at a unique whether patton, across the u. s. or in this particular part of the country. not necessarily unique . these types of events happened when the jet stream gets very wavy. what we call

very meridian, all sort of like a roller coaster that creates a strong upper level wind shear and really spins up what we call cyclones or storm systems. that then sort of mixed all of the ingredients, the warm, humid air coming from the gulf of mexico in the cool air that's producing snow right now over portions of the upper midwest. so this is not really an uncommon snow, severe weather set up per se, but it is very common when we have light media ongoing right now, which is an atmospheric circulation that does favor severe weather across the states. is it difficult to predict how the tornado is going to full, where it's going to, you might say land or hate? because the u. s. over the decades has a very sophisticated early warning system. great question ah, pinpointing, i think you know, more than a couple of days in advance where we're going to experience these advances is, is extremely challenging a couple of days in advance. the storm prediction center, which is the agency task,

was forecasting severe weather here in the united states had convective outlook, which basically means, you know, heads up, the environment might be favorable. we had tornado watches out, hours in advance last night, and the warnings, which means you know, the torino has been spotted or detected by radar. those were out in some cases, well over 30 minutes in advance before the tornado says. so i would say this was a very well warned storm, you know, in hats off here to the national weather service and all the people that the undoubtably saved many lives last night. so you're watching the system so far. you're watching the weather full cast. i have to ask you, bad weather is predicted for the region. so what do we need to look out for now? well, today the cold front that produced all the severe weather yesterday has moved further east and further south. so it's a much smaller, warm sector today. i do expect maybe a few tornadoes recorded. nothing of the magnitude of what we saw yesterday. i do believe yesterday the specific tornado that i mentioned that will very likely have

very close to a 400 kilometer pathway. i do think that that will go down is probably one of the most impressive long track tornadoes in united states history. good to your important thanks very much phil analysis. victor can see me that the university of illinois. thank you. now let's go to europe, where top diplomats from g 7 countries have been to show unity against global aggressors as they meet in the u. k. city of liverpool partition. foreign secretary lives trust, made specific mention of tensions with russia, china and iraq. but other pressing issues include cave in 1900 vaccines and dealing with the ongoing cost of the pandemic on economies g $7.00 countries. as the world's leading democracies and economies need to come together to advance the front as freedom. we need to show a positive, proactive approach and making ourselves safer, more competitive, better able to stand up for the values. we believe it. we need to defend ourselves

against the growing threats from hostile actors. and we need to come together strongly to stand up to aggressors who are seeking to limit the bounds of freedom and democracy. a correspondent, really challenge sir, joins me now from lapel and rory, it does seem that russia is dominating the talk, certainly on various points that mistrust mentioned you know, energy ukraine and also cybersecurity. yeah, that's any right. i think amongst all the issues and threats that the delegates have been talking about here, renee into china. rhonda need to visions, cove it of course, but also other crises like what's going on in the mall and none have dominated a thing like the issue of russia in the real fear, amongst the foreign ministers gathered. that it might perhaps be about the lord

some sort of evasion once again into ukraine and lives trust i think is trying to position herself as a kind of unifier of the free. well this she might see it. and she has said that we have to deter russia from taking that course of action. being very clear would be a strategic mistake for russia to do that. and what the g 7 meeting is about this weekend is a show of unity amongst all like minded nations. but i have to say uniting the free world is easier said than done. and an example of that is the nord stream to gas pipeline projects, which is between russia and germany. now. interesting, lee, germany's new foreign minister from the green party, atlanta, is against the north stream to pipeline project. but our boss from the social democrat party of charles is more in favor of it in germany, is not yet willing to say as the us and the u. k would like it,

so that's, it will threaten russia with pulling the north street into the pipeline if it went into ukraine. so that's the kind of example of how yes these countries may be friends, but they don't always agree. thanks very much for the update or challenge that forth in liverpool. well, european governments face a tough balancing between pressuring russia about ukraine and meeting their energy needs. that european union binds about 40 percent of its natural gas from russia. the biggest customer is germany followed by italy and then austria years. most of the guys went through ukraine, adding it billions of dollars in transit revenue. now rushes accused of punitive li, bypassing ukraine. for example, the almost complete nord stream to pipeline which will deliver additional gas directly from russia to germany. ma'am, do a seller, there is an international oil economist and a visiting professor of energy economics at s. c. p. europe business school. joe's been via skype from london. good. have you with us on the programs that it does

seem that nord stream to is a very contentious issue for the g 7 foreign ministers, especially when it comes to the influence that russia has over it. it says all those v a contentious issue and some diverse in the united states never accepted the concept of not assume to but whether it likes it or not, it should go play. it is there, it says we computed. and it says when working for the last set of amounts for a set, did he cation or granting it, or the nation alliances by the germans and afterwards, by europe. yes, u. k. j. well, he's there and it is a ryan barnett well that we americans like it all up will it will bring g, it would've been 55000000000 cubic meters of jazz douro. and that's

years that you look at the, on your needs. it's very bad. you now indeed are they, you do you touch on the u. s. me the u. s. as long opposed the pipeline to put a great deal of pressure on the e. u to not go with this project, but europe needs gas. if they don't go to russia, where else they going to get it from, they cannot get it. they cannot sets find their needs, except from russia. for instance, the americans can supply them with various rams and ged. it will find not just the same with gutter, but it will not be as she she nor as won't be taken as the russian wife gaz rationale. as you mentioned at the start of the interview, as much if wealthy passion, sure. on the market, european market. and if you only care about biddy in a supplier,

and they'll provide the huge needs of european you, i'm sorry, what are they like? it's overlap. they will have the phone, russia, then they will shoot that of the slip. ok, let's just slightly move away from the russia topic because the u. k. and the u. s . have ventured into shale gas drilling to great of public opposition at home and certainly abroad for variety of reasons. for many years, quakes to groundwater, supplies being polluted in terms of the technology and the access is esco painful development was do okay, has the technology but that has yet a washing against it and it has not been proven that they have enough reserves in yeah. and then you guys, you are brushing that had me shannon motion and it was indeed everywhere. usually it moved me and i sense some, some hints in yes. and, and each for all,

well and g, nothing, no age weren't there, but, and it's therefore united kingdom van ramirez, oh, oh, it shows, yes it's, i'm for much in we'll never see the light of the gates because we don't know the government fees. i really do know that i got a huge a run issue by li ladies. indeed, i mean, in early november, they were denials from the british government that they had requested extra supplies of so eloquently tell us of, of liquid nitrogen gas from cats are and other sources. if russia becomes a big issue for the united kingdom, for example, or even the other members of the e, as it seems, they will collectively sanction them if anything happens or over ukraine, surely like liquid nitrogen gas and shipping it from countries like qatar and those that can produce ellen g, it is or is or has to be the,

the real alternative that so the united kingdom already employed and g sound cover. but that assumes the bulk of it, and it's worth to name your batch of exclusion. we're going fetch much higher biases and where is the demand for it? for awesome. china alone can get in that for lack of cut out on its own, but still it gets hurt from many areas. so that can occur is certain that some of the of that you can, i'm looking here and that's why i said that you saw the length of you that not, not that not do your math sheets and g will be sufficient. the satisfying the router moods a we'll get you in and i has all the columns and it has an in to get the system in terms of vibe, gas by brands. i did go and get this and cheaper prices. well,

i will supply indeed, we will have to see how this plays out for the buy. but ma'am, do sell. i may, thanks so much for joining us from london. thank you very much. who has what else is coming up here? home annisa. the hunt full rebels hiding in the congo forest, but they are the only ones who fit the arrive of soldiers for not just one, but 2 armies. this china, spying on its neighbors. the chinese say no, but the philippines and others worried the whole story coming up. that australian cricket has crushing lynn to win the opening match of the ashes more on that later in thought. ah, hasn't abraham or hasty says iran is serious about the latest round of negotiations to revive the 2015 nuclear deal? and if will power a willing to remove sanctions and agreement can be reached state to be reported.

those comments talks go on in vienna. now the head of the international atomic energy agency has been speaking to our corresponding das jabari in vienna. rafael, a group cc, outlined the contentious issues under discussion. well, it was a wide ranging and discussion we, i specifically talked about the role of the i e. but then we of course, talked about this, j. c, p o, a and raphael grossi was very much adamant that it is a deal that is very, very important. and critical for their work and they are not involved in the politics of this nuclear deal. they just want to verify what has been agreed to. he also talked about the issues that remain with iran. he admitted that iran is one of the, it's the country that as the most inspections of his nuclear program in the world. but despite that, he said there are still issues that they are discussing with iran. that is a cause for concern for the i. e. a and this is what he had to say about that

specific those issues the ages he and iran are trying to come to an agreement on or, or based on 2 things. one these the capability or the ability of the agency to return to one facility, one specific facility in iran, where we need to reinstall cameras that need to be there. and it has been difficult to to this. so we have been talking about these and the other thing is how to address a number of issues which need to be clarified. the agency found traces of nuclear material in places that had not been declared before they facility he's talking about. there is carriage that's out just outside of to ron, it's a workshop that produces central futures for around nuclear program. and ad here in said that they have the i e, a had 4 cameras in that facility. and in june, there was an act of sabotage which destroyed one of those cameras and they blame

israel for that. they said at that time that they are going to take all 4 cameras off line until there is a new investigation. and there is some kind of a statement issued by the united nations and the i e. until that happens, the ranges are not willing to open up again, inspections to that workshop. and the director general mentioned that this is one of the point of contention because they cannot determine what is happening in iran's nuclear program. if they don't know where the center features are going and how many are actually be made. and you can watched also drury's full interview with the i. e, a chief rafael at grossi on talk, 120. but i wait 30 gmc on sunday. now the huntsman stepped up for finds his hiding in thick forests of eastern congo. soldiers from uganda. the army recently crossed into democratic republic of congo to track down the allied democratic forces. the joint military operations as early successes include enemy camps, destroyed, fight is captured, and hostages freed. malcolm webb has the story. over the last 10 days,
