7:03 am
something which is going to be permanent for that permanent thing to happen. they wanted the truth and then they wanted the political settlement on the political settlement, though the hope is, although i've been talking to some of their own people to day and they are very optimistic. they say when it comes to the settlement with cautious is high. you have to be your many lead yamini own. it has to be between us, the isler party and the different components of the human society. we don't want any international interferes, but ultimately the hurt is what they won't tell you why wishes they all the us, whatever happens to model, they are definitely going to be the ones to have a bigger say, this is a complex political landscape. the americans failed because it's very complex. the european tried this in work. the united nation has been struggling for quite some time to bring all those parties to come together to negotiate a political settlement. this could be a moment, by the way, when cider ravia could be on a collision course with united out of emma's particular. when it comes to the secessionist, the secessionist are saying that we are breaking away. we no longer part of this yemen. this deal stipulate the,
7:04 am
the m and has to stay united with the health is having a bigger say, you have this law, have this assessment secessionist. this is why when you talk to the health is about the potential for a final settlement. they will tell you it will take some time. the death toll from the war in yemen, around 400000 people killed and millions more displaced. agencies say the humanitarian situation there will only ease once the causes of conflict are removed . 80 percent of yemenis are in need of aid and assistance. according to the united nations and 70000000 people face food insecurity. according to the world food program and malnutrition rates among women and children in yemen, remain among the highest in the world and estimated 3 and a half 1000000 pregnant and breastfeeding women. and children under 5 are suffering from acute malnutrition or the united nations is appealing for more than $4000000000.00 of a money for the country this year. a day goes, urrea is the u. n's deputy humanitarian coordinator and he says that a shortfall and funding forces the closure of life saving aid services we have
7:05 am
received cleanses in amounting about $1200000000.00. so far. this is in comparison to what we received last year, which was close to 50 percent at about $2000000000.00 out of the 4 that were requesting. this is really the generosity of the donors and we present a plan to them. and we tell them that these are the needs of the people in this plan is crafted by united nations with partners about 200 national and use international use and you in agencies and we present to the world. these are the needs of the people in order to bear to survive. i mean, not to develop themselves, not to. we're not talking about resilience recovery or people returning home or just talking about bare minimum survival. here is a food water. nutrition has a center and the different services that we try to we try to provide if the funding is not provide, it means less services. it means transfer connects that have to close. it means are
7:06 am
pumping stations for water, stop pumping or pumping. the water in schools that do few schools that remain not, i mean the, the number of schools that remain, that function even less way than they do. so we now have about 2500000 children that are out of school in yemen. and this is the result of the compounded impact of 8 years of over 8 years of conflict in that has destroyed public services. and that has brought the economy very much to hold on, has impacted millions of people in may and more thousands of refugees across into neighboring thailand. their fleeing fighting between armed resistance groups and me and mars army from on this sort of tony cheng, he's in bank called for us monitoring developments. tony help us understand what's happening in that border area between thailand and me and more well though, we've understand the last 4 days as many as 10000 people have fled across the
7:07 am
border into thailand, around the at tie town of mess sod, they've been playing fighting around a casino town inside miramar called shriek, cocoa, where qur'an forces have been trying to force out the border guard force. there'd an independent force but there allied with mia. mars military are in what appears to be a lot of act to fighting all across this area. the refugees themselves have come across. they've been received by the tie army who haven't allowed any media to get close them. the figures are slightly confusing. the tie authorities say there are only 3200 people. they say many have gone back. or we understand from sources inside mer, mallets. now that should the case, but the tile 3rd is distributing those refugees who come across into different camps. there was a lull in the fighting yesterday. it's expected to resume today. and that may be
7:08 am
why the tie armies seem to be preparing a temporary stretch is to house these people because it appears and won't be able to go back anytime soon. with temporary structures. or we heard earlier this week from thailand that they don't intend to welcome these refugees. long term tony. no, and that's been their attitude very much since the fighting across the board sparked off again about 2 years ago in the 198 is mamma's army forced over a 100000 people across the border who had been living for the last 30 years in camps in thailand, the ties really do not want to see that again. the problem for them is that in the last 2 months. so. so we've seen a lot of very active fighting in this area where the qur'an ethnic forces are fighting against mia mars military. and also a little further up the border where the corranio fighting against me,
7:09 am
i must merge and they seem intent on upsetting the balance that had existed in this area for decades. and actually seizing the border towns that have traditionally been in the control of mammals, military, even though they haven't controlled the area around it. and there may be because they want to show that they have the power to do it now that they're strong enough . and what mir, most military is clearly changed during the rest of the countries cure the major towns and military bases. and i think they're trying to show that they can't control the borders. that in turn, may force many people across the border into thailand. they say they are welcome here temporarily, but when it's safe to go back they will push them back across the board. tony ching monitoring from bank or thank you very much for your reporting. and more than half of somalia population is struggling to survive the most severe drought in the country's history. 5 rainy seasons have failed. a 6th now looks likely to follow katherine sawyer reports from mogadishu. so we are at our come for displace people
7:10 am
here on the outskirts of the shoes. thousands of people have come here from different parts of the country and basically they have fled from drought and they say that the situation back home has been unbearable. many people have died. we have hard from government officials who say at least 43000 people have died in the last one and a half years. so the situation is very dire. we have been talking to we have been talking to aid workers who say that they are overwhelmed and their money, you know, donna money is not coming fast enough. so people here are saying that they don't have food. we have talked to a woman who said that to a hot children have died one very, very recently. so, but i fled from home because of lack of water and food. all on most died. my
7:11 am
children are sick. i don't even know how i can rebuild my life. people are living in this kind of conditions. it has been raining in some parts of the country. but, you know, these has come with its own devastations because people are saying that they don't have enough to cover themselves. water is pouring into their houses. we know that in some parts of the country, several people have died because of a potential rains. others have lost their homes and many others are coming here. and, you know, when we talk about the range, you know, someone would ask why in this id p's not going back home by so difficult. many of this displaced people come from their pharma. so they come from areas where they have been planting, but it was very difficult plan,
7:12 am
so they are here. so right now the situation continues to be very bad because like i said, they have not planted. so aid workers, us saying that we are going to expect more bad consequences when it comes to this drought. it's not over. they say, katherine sawyer reporting there. the u. s. department of justice is investigating how dozens of classified intelligence documents ended up on the internet. the files revealed at the united states spies on its allies as well as its adversaries. they also paint a grim picture of russia's military capabilities in the ukraine war. my can reports from washington dc. the publish documents proposed to show the degree to which the ukrainian military is struggling in the conflict. but also supposedly show that the u. s. has extensively penetrated russian intelligence units and is also spying on
7:13 am
close allies, including ukraine's military and political leaders. the leak that was 1st reported by the new york times, includes details about ukraine's military strength and its casualty comes along with those of russian forces. the times report says, one senior us official called the leak, a massive intelligence breach, made worse because it lays out to russia just how deep american intelligence operatives had managed to get into the russian military apparatus. but some of the details in the documents appear to have been altered to present a rosy picture of the russian military fueling speculation that they're being used in a propaganda drive. there are some aspects of the document that have some authenticity to them, but they're also indications that this may be a russian disinformation campaign, which is a very good at, it's attempting to target strategic intelligence sharing between the united states and ukraine. and try to, you know, create
7:14 am
a bad base relationship there. the documents also appear to revealed us national secrets about the middle east, china and even north korea. the white house is working at damage control with its traditional allies, many of whom i believe have been angered at the reported extent of us espionage. it's also working at reassuring those allies that the u. s. is able to keep it secrets and what the white house most needs is concrete information about the leaks from both the pentagon and the department of justice. my kind of, i'll just sarah washington. at least 4 people have died and 9 others injured in an avalanche in the french alps. the disaster occurred near mo, blong and southeastern france. authorities se, off peace skiers and guys were courtney avalanche and staying in france at least 2 people have been killed after an explosion caused a building to collapse in the french city of more se on sunday,

7:16 am
persistent fire lasting several hours now at extremely high temperatures. we have to project our firefighters and sniffer dogs, but in the middle gas witnesses say it all started when they heard a loud explosion and smelt gas in early hours of the morning until june exposure. we heard an explosion between midnight and one a. m. a very strong one that made us jump. we looked out the window to see what was happening and i saw rubble smoke and people shouting to me. 8 people were killed in law say in 2018 when to dilapidated buildings caved in. 8 agencies reported at the time that 40000 people in the port city were living in subs, standard structures, bond city officials, rules out structural issues in this latest collapse. sorry, height of algae, there are still ahead analysis here, and the politics of sports will tell you why ukraine is threatening to boycott. next years. paris olympics. i'm andrew simmons reporting from belfast. northern
