based were hanging muslims for 5, a head storm costs, severe damage efforts, increase and downing electricity lines that speak to tony chain. he joins us now from bangkok and neighboring town, and he's watching the story for us tourney. west slowly getting a better sense of the number of casualties here. why is it taking quite settle of what communications to search way have been cut off for the last 48 hours. so effectively, since the storm here is on sunday afternoon, they've already been restored a couple of hours ago. that was when we started hearing about confirmed casualty figures that had been rumors flying around on social media for the last couple of days. but still it's ebony really with the center of scituate where the phone lines are relatively clear and easy to get to al jazeera has spoken to some of the rang and living in make shift camps on the edge of the city. we understand that in that
11:03 am
area alone, several 100 people have died. but there are still areas in more remote parts of scituate which were hit by this storm, which sol wins more than $200.00 columbus now in some areas, a storm surge of wall to the residence said was as high as 3 meters at so we are expecting those casualty figures to rise in the as, as we learn more, 200 kilometer now wins. that sounds or finding these extremely vulnerable people living and very frenzy structures to the absolute it a thing you have to bear in mind that sits way itself. the city was relatively though it wasn't on home, but the damage was relatively superficial. but on the edge of the city, the temporary cam. so this place people more than a $100000.00 are hanging who fled it tax of the me. i'm military in 2017. and i've
11:04 am
been living there for years. but instructions the we're essentially just wouldn't polls with, with fat break, plastic sheeting out of them and corrugated henri is when you combine that with the with storms, the winds as high as this, you can imagine how devastating that is when the standard and the vision that we're now seeing from this area shows a lot of these housing areas just flattened. the places where food was stored was really if, if they were break was the, the only pod standing roots are being ripped tough doors and windows blown out. a castle has been left dying and the dead and for the ditches. so it really is devastated here would be devastating anywhere, but for people who have virtually nothing. this is really a catastrophic blow. tony, we're talking primarily here about we're hanging mazda is, is there a public schools? i mention here is absolutely of it. the right
11:05 am
hand have been false. there are a 1000000 living across the border and bangladesh where they were forced in 2017. and there are several 100000 living around situated in the most terrible conditions in camps where they've been kept. ringback for virtually prisoner by me and most military. in the last couple of months, however, most military has been trying to facilitate the re punctuation program trying to bring some of those rang back. there's been a, a program of some pushed by the chinese government, the trunk, facilitate them to come back. that's been a lot of pressure from the government of bangladesh who say they don't have the resources to, to keep a 1000000 refugees in the territory. which now most military governments take caley since the crew has been very resistant towards. however, i think they have bound to some of that international pressure. they were trying to arrange this re petri ation program to reassure many of these people who have
11:06 am
floods the most awful conditions in persecution by the military and 2017. that it was now safe to come back. that they would be allowed to go back to the places of original residence, a many of whom are also looking for some level of citizenship which have been denied them in the past. but this is going to further devastate any opportunity for them to come back. a many of those in the camps in bangladesh and trying to get in touch with relatives. but so far having very good luck costs will stay across that story for you here on out as erica. now tony chung that in bangkok, thank you tony. at least 6 people had been confirmed dead and several still unaccounted. 4 of the files are hostile and use the lens. capital, wellington government agencies use that building as temporary accommodations to the force of migrants and other vulnerable people. so i did call has been some residents were still asleep when the fire ripped through the loafers lodge and

11:11 am
a long time in the near future judge. so indeed, a wallet guy situation and everybody. uh, keeping that uh for the television, so i have that tomorrow. hi, the and the packing starting capital is on the bad for us. thank you so much time that has sentenced an american citizen to life in prison for spying. 78 year old johns and one long was the rest of the 2 years ago. the us state department has not commented on his case. long is a resident of hong kong, and the city is chief executive that has expressed confidence and it's communication with beijing. any person who is arrested by the law enforcement agencies in mainland china. that is a reporting mechanism for such as to be related to the home call thornton. this has to be working well for richard kinda has one out from home. com which is
11:12 am
certainly a concern to us. so thorough. it says that this be no official comment yet from the us embassy in beijing on this case, it's cited privacy concerns is the reasons not commenting on this case so far is also causing concern here in hong kong. but chief executive is said, communication lines are certainly strong between the government here and the author of his invasion and the public's point of view. this is again, causing a worries about whether hong kong residents to whether they have for a national citizenship or not, are also a potentially at risk of arrest on the chinese mainland, especially after the last 3 or 4 years. the political turmoil here with the g 7 approaching in japan just coming up in a few days time of this type of consume over china is dealing with the rest of foreign nationals. when in china is likely to come up with a tilting point because it's not just affecting us nationals. this is the latest in a series of cases of individuals with foreign citizenship being detained in china,
11:13 am
such as the australian journalist chung lake who's just past 1000, stay off the tension on the chinese mainland. the charges of espionage against still not being fully explained on the still be no access school, the australian come to the representative in china to find out exactly what her situation is. so this again, adding to that general concern from the us and this allies about how to deal with china over these types of detention activities. it's a long ways of inquiry has criticized b. s the investigation into donald trump's 2016 presidential campaign, special counsel john durham. it says the agency like the evidence line to, to heavily on tips from trump political opponents. the former president is urging congress to take action, describing it as treason, and the crime of the century has recall hearing reports now from washington dc. the f b. i went to far as to hear us conservative media. tell it this report is a huge story. something of this nature takes down the entire organization. a major
11:14 am
bombshell and former president trump quickly took the social media claiming it was treason and the crime of the century. but experts close to the case say that in reality, it doesn't actually say any of that. your some of the concerns that the during report raises were already flags before. so my impression so far is that there isn't a whole lot new here that hasn't already been identified. but i don't think it's any kind of of wins for donald trump or for his print campaign that he says it is john durham who is appointed by trump. officials was critical of the f. b i for an investigation based on, on analyze, and unsubstantiated intelligence. but he only brought 3 criminal cases against low level people. 2 were acquitted, and one blood guilty to falsifying an email did not serve any time in jail. but the investigation durham was looking into which turned into the pro by special consul
11:15 am
rubber molar. did see significant arrest 8, top trump officials found guilty of serious crimes. so of course, the big question is, is this going to impact trump as he tries to win the presidency? again? probably not. he has just recently been found guilty of battery and a woman in the defaming her order to pay $5000000.00. he's facing 34 felony counts in manhattan for his business dealings. he's under invested using the lands of a potential election interference, and there is another special causal investigating whether or not he had a role in the january 6th interaction. and whether he stole readings of classified documents, and then tried to hide hides them, and not given back to investigators. all that said would just trump is done with every single one of these cases is used it to successfully fundraising particle high elda 0 washington. i also had hit on i was, is there the i could always, parliament begins and impeachment, trial of president law. so as
