2:06 am
of national morning while a crush happened just outside the city of larissa on a line connecting athens to the northern city of jerusalem, nikki. a station master has been arrested john sore upon his reports from the scene was search and rescue. efforts are underway. the worst train crash grease has ever seen. a passenger train colliding head on with a freight train. many of the 350 passengers were students returning to the cellar, nikki, after a long weekend celebrate and greek orthodox lent. many were killed in the initial impact shortly before midnight. others burnt in the fire so hot it melted metal. those who made it out was still trying to understand what happened at fidelity. hope oliver, my god, boy, i jumped on him that we fell down. a woman with her child was with us. the train caught fire next to us and this guy found a hole. so we all managed to get out a little bit of the whole train had been 90 degrees and had fallen over the cliff.
2:07 am
half of it was hanging india and the whole thing was on fire. there were 5 wounded where i was an estimated 82 passengers are missing, but only about half that number of bodies has been recovered. the rest may never be retrieved because the fire that engulfed the 1st 2 cars of this train was so hot, more than a 1000 degrees celsius. we're told it may have cremated the victims exactly where they were killed. greek prime minister give ya cause me to thank you, was at the scene, even as the search for survivors continued. and barbara had to fuel the ownership. we are talking about an unspeakable tragedy. i thought to day, 1st and foremost with the relatives of the victims, a duty is to treat the wounded and from there to identify the bodies. dozens of people stood in line to donate blood at the hospital in the central town of larissa and angry families are demanding answers. unless we want all those responsible to
2:08 am
pay for these messages, this greek myth trains driving in 2023. it's insane and on a double track, even from what we're hearing, they went from double to a single track and crashed. the station master has been arrested as investigators try to establish how 2 trains come to be on the same truck jumpstart openness. al jazeera near larissa. now a u. s. intelligence investigation has concluded it's very unlikely a foreign adversary sponsible for the so called havana syndrome. american diplomats and intelligence officers around the world of the lift, suffering mystery ailments in 2016. but it was 1st reported in cuba. auto castro join just live now from washington dc. hardy. so this unclassified report says, is unlikely a hostile foreign power was involved. what more do we know them? this is a wide ranging investigation. darren, in which 7 u. s. intelligence agencies participated of them at 2 were moderate to highly
2:09 am
confident in their conclusion that there was no foreign power involved. 3 were moderately confident and the remaining one was low in confidence. however, their conclusion was the same. again that, that it is very unlikely that another country was involved in the so called attacks . now this investigation has been going on since you as diplomats reported these strange symptoms of losing their hearing or headaches or even a brain injuries starting in havana in the u. s embassy there in 2016. now through the course of this investigation, more than 1000 such cases were investigated across 90 countries. and according to the u. s. officials who brief reporters on this investigation, it involved tracking arms dealers. it involved forensics g o location, a whole tool set, trying to get to the bottom of what is causing this. but the final conclusion is
2:10 am
that there simply was nothing there. what is so what about the hundreds of us diplomats and embassy staff who claim to be suffering from symptoms? right. and they are of many of them. in fact there's more than 1500 cases now. and some have been reported as, as a recently, as of this year. and this, of course, the big question is then, what is the explanation? the report did not draw any conclusions, but it did say that perhaps pre existing medical conditions or environmental factors played a role though there appears to be no pattern as to why or when or to whom these things happened. the state department said, nevertheless, it is taking each of these cases seriously. these comments were irresponsible. they were repugnance. they were disgusting and just as we condemn palestinian incitement of violence. we condemn these provocative remarks
2:11 am
that also amount to incitement to violence. we call on prime minister netanyahu and other senior is really officials to publicly and clearly reject and disavow these comments. we condemn as we have consistently terrorism and extremism in all of its forms. and we continued irks that there be equal measures of accountability for extreme actions, regardless of the background of the perpetrators. or the van earlier report by an expert scientists who looked into the havana syndrome had an opposite conclusion to, to what we found today. they said that very likely it was a post electromagnetic energy or ultrasound that may have caused those symptoms. they didn't say very likely. rather they said that it was a possibility. an attorney for some of these victims said that he was very, he found the report that no foreign power was involved was very disconcerting and does plan to challenge that conclusion, dera to audio, castro, the in washington,
2:12 am
dc hydro. thank you. now the federal bureau of investigation has said that a leak from a laboratory in the chinese city of wu hand is what likely caused coven 19 the comments by the f. b. i director follow wall street journal report. china has denounced the comments saying they have no credibility with our white house correspondent, kimberly elk. it has more from washington dc. what makes us significant is the fact that christopher raised the director of the f. b. i is really the highest government official in the u. s. government to come out and publicly make this assertion that this is the result of a lab league, the origins of coven 19 and not what was previously sort of the accepted consensus that this was in said a result of transmission from a public market, from animals to humans, and so this comes on the keels of the fact that this is also with low confidence,
2:13 am
a conclusion from the department of energy. so what you see is a shift in the consensus. i'll be it still. this is only a small number of agencies in the u. s. government, but it is accumulating from previously one theory to now the sort of growing support towards another theory that this in fact was perhaps even a deliberate act on the part of the chinese government. now this is something that the white house rich part has been very, very careful to swat down, or at least say there is no consensus in the u. s. government. in fact, earlier this week, the national security coordinator, or rather advisors spokesperson john kirby was very careful to say that there is no consensus in the u. s. government. in fact, joe biden has passed a whole of government approach to find out exactly what those origins are for us. house foreign affairs committee has voted to give president biden the power to ban
2:14 am
chinese own social media uptake talk. the white house has already told federal agencies to remove the up from star phones because of security concerns. tick tock souls have been banned on government should firms in canada and at the european parliament. political hagan is following developments from washington dc. the bill passed out of this house committee, but by a very partisan vote 24 to teen. republicans argue that this poses a potential national security challenge. they argue the china could be using this information to basically spread missed information to target people to track people . that is a charge the tick tock denies. democrats are against the bill because they say it's simply too broad that it could interfere with the 1st amendment. the freedom of speech. so what happens next? well, it goes to the full house for a vote, and republicans are in charge. but by the slowness, majority democrats though, control the senate. so if they remain united against this bill, it's unlikely that i'll land on president biden's death expert say,
2:15 am
there is valid concerns when it comes to all of the social media companies and faith believe there's a reason, a tick tock is being targeted. i think that there is definitely an element of tick tock being a very successful non us social media and outcome. it was raising a lot of putting a target on it, for example. ah, it doesn't mean that the concerns are invalid, right? these concerns are real valid, concerns about data security, and there is additional news coming from tick tock. the company says, all of those cube dog videos and funny cat names and all those people dancing. well, you're going to have a limit on that. if you're under the age of 18, about 60 minutes, and after 60 minutes and it'll prompt you to say, do you want another 30 minutes off to put in a pin? there's a catch though. they are going to make this the default setting, but people under the age of 18 can go in and change the default setting to go back to unlimited, tick tock, time watching all of those funny videos. so for parents across the globe who
2:16 am
thought, great, this fight is now over. it's not patty calling al jazeera washington. lots more. so to come here now to 0, including well that when i was president elect call, so unity after winning the disputed election. the opposition already demanding another vote. and a look at life inside russian. annex matter. you paul law for devastating months. long see mana status. ah all the unusual here at the u. s. is that of winter at the moment, but there was still quite a surprising contrast in the weather, the southern states. we've had record high temperatures for february, for louisiana, for mississippi,
2:17 am
for alabama and even for georgia. thus just in the last week or so, at the same time, the stows been falling so deeply that the state of emergency in california. now the storms tend to go across the middle of the u. s. and the last one is just leaving. having given the 1st significant snow of the year or of the winter for new york, for example, for boston, for that connecticut, it's still snowing on thursday in the eastern side of canada, but the following weather is bright and not especially cold. you follow it across the us. the blue indicates where daytime temperature wallace are sub 0, which course brings you back to the high states high mountain states in the west. and although the snow will stop falling on thursday, the sun comes out. it is still quite cold. of course they got the problem of cold air coming off the plains, the high chaparral, across the plains itself, and turning into a particularly dangerous looking storm system, running through the ohio valley on friday, left to watch that one closely. throughout the caribbean is generally fine. mexico has been surprisingly hot recently and i think the eastern side it will stay that
