but soil just like that one that you can see right here we've been talking to some of the children that live in this place. and they said that they would love to follow the steps of your dell, missy. they might be yeah. and other members of the national team, we are a generation of care people, but very ambitious, very united, very persistent and very good, bad option. you've been made to be competent right now, but not for long. you will soon feel the same his we feel every day from cuba, hong kong and uganda, 3 women grapple with the impact of the frontline activists fear future children on a j 0 ah for at least 68 people are dead off for

twin prop plane was operated by domestic carriers. yeti airlines. this is where it happened about 200 kilometers west of the capitol cap. man do the crash sciences between porthos new international airport. it opened just 2 weeks ago and the old airport, the plane went down in a forest along the setting and back you river from here to limbo has more from captain do. if you can consider the history d, e, v, e, v, as in history of nepal, because of our topography are difficult geography. ah, there have been numerous crushes, or accidents, or pain crashes in the past. normally unusual, usually in mountain areas and where you have the stone or small mountain across that fly normally do to pull visibility and because of the difficult, difficult terrain. but today if the weather is good,

there's good visibility. so people are wondering what happened? i did speak to some people within the airline industry and of course the company. but at this moment they say it's really difficult to gauge. we'll see what exactly happens. but because it was in the town of around where they will. there's an army base police administrative basis around relief and rescue operation happened. i think quickly. the prime minister himself has directed to build a vision authority of nepal to facilitate rescue relief operations as fast as possible. and a pull central decided that an will center should be stablished at the airport. cool. that's relatives of those passages involved in the a crash can get more details and updates of what's happening. let's bring in jerry

. so john, man, he's in a be ation consultant and joins us now from jakarta. good to have you with us. so 1st of all, are there any indications out of what caused this crash? well, initially when there was a video that came out that showed across to be very low speed and then losing out basically for world to one side and just different frames. if you do any crash, initially, we thought that it might be an engine failure, but then as information began became available. apparently, it was a writing interval. so if you don't, that initial thought didn't make sense and we look just look at the records. but data received by fast tracking websites on the ad profit showing,

showing some strange data that's been set up and down very, very launch translations that, that doesn't make sense. so again, it was very early days. i was back. typically, i analyze the sort of fluctuation that you were noticing that i mean, obviously we don't speculate what caused this crisis. but in a typical situation, what causes that sort of effect was quite small. you know, we might be looking at some minute technical problems in terms of controls, our system much of what it measures from the air for the speed and altitude. but all the data that receive data is either on the us or

sending sending around the family shows every cannot reach. and when we look at other aircraft within the airlines, it doesn't show that the same places. so we might be looking, we might be looking at maybe some technical issues or maintenance lexus in the us. but again, that's what we've got to get us to look to look at and prove it. what sort of safety history does this type of aircraft this a t plane have with the for the last 2 years, but the doesn't accidents, but most of them i'm going to technically it's a very safe aircraft and is the best seller in the class. so if we look at the cell that we don't have to look at there any problems with the

maintenance record or the training of the industry life has been accepted as one of the papers in this class. what about the airport itself and the support, shall we say, infrastructure there? how on power is it with world class standards? well, it's been a difficult brittany battle mountain country. how to get very good if infrastructure in place. but the book itself has the new apple, the apple records. but previously you have some accidents so far, but again, we must appreciate that the operating environment and others very simple. and yes, we should expect the same standards, but one side on the other side muscles will look at the challenges facing and it's not. and the line itself line, what kind of history?

because i have several in the past. and it seems just last accident reports from the previous accidents and that has some trained some training special training or she's on another. it's not all of the aircraft, but maybe through actions. so again, it does come into question, but as i said, all right, thank you very much for sharing your knowledge of this with us. the

now the race is on the vine survivors after russia, at least a barrel of missiles striking multiple targets across the ukraine. for the 1st time in 2 weeks, at least 21 people have been killed in the central city of the ne pro miss alt hit to residential building. that's according to regional authorities. at least 73 were injured. strikes are also reported in cave and the west and city of live. one rocket left a huge crater in the village near the capital. the missiles hit power facilities resulting in black house across the country. that's actually a bottle, has more from keith rescue efforts are ongoing in denise pro, in fact we, we did hear there's some rescue team say that they are still in contact with some people underneath the rubble because they're receiving as a message from them. so there is always hope, but of course they have been working through the night very difficult conditions. it is very cold, it's dog. they've not had always electricity because there are

a power outages, but they say they'll do everything they can to try and pull people out. we know the dozens of people have been rescued many injured in taken to hospital. the attack was also part of a wide, a picture of a wave of attacks across the country in the north, in the east, in the south, in the west. here also in the capital, keith, we certainly heard a series of explosions. people had to take shelter, they've been power outages because what ukrainian officials are saying is that most of these missile attacks are really targeting a power infrastructure. and what's energy providers are saying is that they are going to have to roll out emergency power counts. and the next few days in terms of electricity and power supplies are going to be very difficult. indeed, they say me and mars jointer is stepping up an air campaign against armed opposition groups. at least 10 people, including a mother and a young child were killed in 2 strikes last week. tourney chang has more from

bangkok. these 2 attacks referred to one on the western border, where the military was apparently targeting the headquarters of the chin national army. but accidentally dropped to bombs inside indian territory in the state of many poor people made the point that over the course of the last 2 years since the crew took place in the tanks like this, the men, my military have dropped bombs on tight territory bangladesh. territory and now indian territory, and none of those governments has registered proper complaints. so i think there's a feeling here that they're being accommodated to a certain extent by their neighbors. the 2nd attack was in the south in k u in state and targeted, what appears to be 2 churches. 5 people killed their mother, a toddler to catholic pastors and a local villager as well. so very much the bronze of these attacks being felt by civilians on the grid. but i think it also illustrates the fact that me and my

military will low it's still on the ground, has parallel control near complete mastery. and as we understand it, mamma's military out shopping that the moment amongst their allies, countries like china, russia for what ever air resources they can get their hands or doesn't need to be fast as long as it can get in the air and tra brahms. that's what they're looking for because the only challenge they face a small arms fire on the ground. my head of the world health organization has spoken with china's top health official and welcome the public release of dr. on covey 19 related death. beijing says nearly 60000 people have died in hospitals lifted, severe current advice restrictions in early december when china had previously reported just over 5000 deaths since the start of the pandemic. some scientists for cost, they'll be at least $1000000.00 current, a virus related death in china by the end of the year. trying to you reports now
