got. instead, veda about land is confident, her country will prevail. we pray every single moment for the word to be over. we believe in our army, and we're sure it's gonna be over with our week 3, but it just depends on the time. ah, ukraine, he's on high alert presidency. lensky says bloody me to pull, denise plotting fragile souls and us intelligence agencies have warned. russia may be planning strikes against government buildings or civilian infrastructure. give is far from the front line and has only rarely been hit by russian missiles since ukraine and force as managed to push russian soldiers out of the city. back in march, but or forties are cautious there, have banning a public gatherings and are asking people to take the air raid sirens very seriously. they will rule since february, thousands of people have been displaced, injured and killed. ha ha!
12:05 am
is a reminder of the atrocities russian forces committed in their attempt to take the capital. o fathered under he says he helping to bury the remain found in mass graves across the town. the other 2000000 to the queue. i think that neither i, nor anyone who lives in ukraine, who witness the walk and understand what happened for now we are surviving on adrenalin. but after everything that's happened, i'm worried that the optimal will last decades. 6 months on ukrainians are fighting for survival against an enemy that is unwilling to retreat. that is, i will, i will just see down keep overlander was a the ukraine operations manager for the international federation of the red cross . she joins us now live from key. if welcome to the news for humanitarian perspective, where are we 6 months into this conflict? yes. hi. so at the moment, we are still very much in the emergency phase. although we have
12:06 am
a much better idea of what are the needs at the moment. so far we have provided assistance with basic items, basic needs to 5000000 people, but the needs are increasing. the winter is coming and this is our main focus at the moment we are preparing for the winter. i zation the needs are, are mainly related to housing, but also for people to just to, to know where they're going to send their children to school. so this, the, the needs are very broad and the people are either looking for a place to be hosted or reach out to family members outside of
12:07 am
ukraine. but within ukraine we still have 6600000 of people that have been displaced by the conflict. and more or less the same amount of people that have fled the country that are in the neighboring countries. right. and we also talk about the flow of weapons into ukraine, of course, flow to me as lensky is continue to ask the international community to provide arms . but where are we when it comes to humanitarian assistance, where is the red cross and other parallel organizations are most stretched and most in need. so at the moment the, the advantage that the red cross has, i would say, compared to many organizations, is that our responses is localized. so as you know, the red cross is, is an international with the biggest international network of you managing
12:08 am
organizations. and each country has its own red cross and so that the ukraine, red cross has $10000.00 volunteers that are on their frontline, on the 1st line of service to their population. and the red cross, the international red cross comes as a, as a support to that. but the red cross in ukraine has branches and networks of workers and volunteers that are supporting the population throughout the country. so i would say that the biggest needs at the moment are really to increase and scale up our response. because the number of people who need assistant assistance in ukraine and outside ukraine is, is going up every day. so it's, it's a constant effort to raise their resources that we need to be able to, to scale up to respond to all these needs, right?
12:09 am
an independent stay commemorations bring with, bring with concerns. real free is over renewed attack from russia on civilian infrastructure. how does your organization prepare for that? what sort of intelligence are you basing? what you can do on? yeah. so of course we are preparing for this is our work environment. so i just, in the last 2 days we've been preparing for this week. so there has been a lot of efforts that have been put in pre positioning as stuck in the warehouses, for instance, as speeding up the process on bringing goods inside the country because we know also what will be needed. but, but also in terms of safety, in terms of preparing our own staff for,
12:10 am
for any event, any, and yet tax. but you know, what's happening this week is, is also happening every day. now of course it's, it's, it's more media ties, i would say because of this mark of the 6 months and also the in independence day. but we are, are alerts every day. there are attacks in different parts of the countries on a daily basis. so this is also part of the challenges of operating in such an environment. monumental challenge in d. valinda rosier ukraine operations manager for the in special federation. the red cross. thanks for joining us on usa. you're welcome. now the united nations security council has been meeting to discuss fighting the others up parisha nuclear power plant. kristen salumi join us alive from united nations in new york on this.
12:11 am
and kristin russia accuses ukraine of shelling the plant and ukraine blames russia . what's the un, the international community thing? well, the united nations has called on both sides to refrain from any military activity in the vicinity of the plant and to withdraw troops from the area. they say that the tension and the competing narratives is exactly why the united nations in international monitors need to get in there, or they're calling for access for a team of investigators from the international atomic energy agency to get in. and russia and ukraine both say they want that as well. russia says they've been on board for a visit from the i. e a to the site since june. ukraine says that i just earlier today, their foreign minister was in touch with the i. e a. this is the ukranian ambassador, speaking at the meeting earlier,
12:12 am
saying that things are progressing and logistics are being worked out. and also that ukraine would like to see a permanent presence of the i. e, a at the site until they can regain control of it. now preparations for this mission, according to the un, are in fact ongoing and the i. e, a director general, raphael mariano grossi made a statement earlier today saying that he does expect that mission to be possible in the next couple of days. if these final issues can be worked out what those final issues are, are a bit vague from all of the parties concerned, but everybody says they want it. i and everybody's hoping it'll happen in the next couple of days. and how worried kristen is the, the you n about the security of the nuclear blood. oh, it was the international community is greatly concerned that you and officials is country speaking in the security council. all i express their fear of what could go
12:13 am
wrong. i if a missile were to strike at the wrong part of the plant, i'm the secretary general has said any damage could be suicidal. i and there warning that the reactors, while the reactors themselves are protected, that a loss of power could be particularly devastating to the area. so i certainly concern oliver all around that you and has also called for military and forces to be withdrawn from the plant. russia says that it's not their troops that are during the damage they're there to protect it. they show no signs of withdrawing. kristen, thank you. very much kristen salumi at the you and a new york there. a hundreds of people have gathered in moscow for the funeral of doria, duke, another daughter, over prominent russian ultra nationalists. she was killed in a car bombing on saturday. the russia has blamed on ukraine their 29 year old was

12:35 am
capitalize on this well, official polls, half his party coming 2nd millions are set to vote for the 1st time and cost a junior. it's hopeful he's managed to mobilize a youth movement. well, maria sir lauren su is and africa unless she joins us over skype from johannesburg . welcome to the news hour. as i mentioned there on goler is, is the pool country. it's one of the, the largest economies in sub saharan africa. yet this wealth hasn't been able to filter down to those who need it most. how would you explain that? so yes, i going is one of the larger economies and sub on africa, but it's not fully developed. there's many shortcomings. and of course, as you mentioned already, it has been impacted by ramp and corruption. and this is really limited the wealth from checking down to the rest of the population. it's dependence on oil also means that it's not diversified either way and economy should be ideally,
12:36 am
and that has led to a lack of job creation across many sectors in the economy. now the, at the m. p l a. have been empowered pretty much since independence from portugal in 1975 haven't a. why is this election regarded as being somewhat different? what do you think is likely to tip the scales potentially? so girl is gone through quite a tough time in the past 6 to 8 years. so in 2015 it entered into a recession, which would last for 6 years. and then of course, already being in a recession, it was hit very hard by the crew with 19 pandemic. especially when oil price, oil price crushed in april 2020. given that it's, that's a major revenue earning. and those, you know, really had an impact on so if your economic conditions, but as we already said, we're not that good to begin with. i think that's definitely contributions to a sense of disillusionment with the ruling party. the other thing is that when
12:37 am
president the answer took over in 2017, there was a kind of renewed optimism in the country that perhaps he would open up the great civil society space that he was whole local elections. that perhaps the board was for the macroeconomic stability that might start to trickle down. but of course, that hasn't entirely happened. some of it has been a lack of political will. other things have been just global shocks, but this is really contributed to this feeling of delusion. and this is, this is what you could potentially see the emperor late and not fair as well as it has had previous elections. right. and given that 60 percent of young girl in saw under the age of 25 years, how might this youth vote or people indeed voting for the 1st time impact on the results you think? well, i think what they use, you know, they're not as to me informed by the kind of personal loyalties as the previous
12:38 am
generations. and i think that we see this in other parts of southern africa. you know, we, we do have an operation movement still in power. you know that as well as the younger and the more urbanized they tend to say, well what, what do we need right now? rather than who do we owe our loyalty to? having said that, i don't know if is enough of a generational shift at the moment when people are influenced by say, who their parents would have voted full. but there is definitely a sense that people are tired of the status quo and that they do want something to be different. i don't think it's going to be a monumental shift. but i do think that the mpeg popularity has declined and that you need to flow modernization is definitely helping at mountain much more effective challenge to the m p l a than in previous collection africa. and it's very similar and so great to have you on the news. and thank you. thanks very much . though reco breaking heat wave in china is expected to start cooling off this week with a cold front and typhoon expected to hip parts of the country. officials have been
