[000:00:00;00] the a start, thousands of actuated as you kind of rush of like mutual the soul, the destruction of the den that's flooding the histone region. the puts on the credit, this is l 20 life from the start coming up around and by it was what it says is it's 1st domestically might have to select the ballistic massage,

the nationwide purchase. so again, in front against a new move, the price is the retirement age to $64.00. pulse closing towards complementary election is versus hope at the end, the political crisis, griffing, the country will be live and to wide. 16, the ukraine and russia are accusing each other of blowing up a major den that sparking holdings of city of flooding and russian controlled territory down stream in the region of his own. well, how levels have risen by at least 10 maces in the area. the know the kafka tam links the banks of the new pro river held by roster on the south side to keep on the north. the dams destruction threatens to hipaa crime is water supply as it feeds dependents use main voice, a canal affair. the up the river is the separation nuclear power plant. the i. e,

i say is that price is no immediate risk footprint and begins coverage until monday. the car cost cut them held back 18000000000 cubic meters of water generating electricity and providing fresh water for hundreds of thousands of people. not anymore to the most immediate impact is for the 10s of thousands of civilians living immediately down river. this is the crating and controlled side the river swollen and overwhelming the banks. residents of nearby streets evacuated from the rising waters. the family passed, stranded and seemingly in shock. rescued by passing patrol was evacuated from the slow did on sniff co village. a local school in stadium downtown was flooded. the stadium was completely under water, and the flood waters were reaching the school on the russian occupied side of the river. the town of nova kafka is also under a meter or more of floods was a meeting of nato's eastern flank countries. ukraine's presence accused the

russians of terrorism. it'd be just about the it's physically impossible to lower top somehow from the outside by shilling gold. it was mine, it was mine for the box and occupier, and they blew it. tongue. at least once again demonstrates a cynicism with which russia treats the people whose land it has captured. it's the most dangerous terrorist in the world. russian officials give conflicting accounts of denial. so i'm saying that down at the stomach zone, most pointing the finger of blame back at you, crane sitting and appreciate it. and trying to prevent me offensive operations by the bush. and how many along this section of the front line, the key by seem committed an active sabotage or temporary stocked. it led to the floating of substantial areas for help, serious and long listing environmental consequences. before and after satellite imagery again reveals the extraordinary extent of the deluge. police gates of the dam have been gushing water since late last year, when russia ended its occupation of the city of hassle and withdrew its troops

across the new pro river. russian forces kept control of the dam itself and have previously destroyed the road running along the top of it. for russia, you can see the read, your beneficent that you're stopping that, that connection for your training and forces to get across. and also i would say the expand not planning on saying that for the long term, for whatever reason, if they think, for example, that they're not going to win this buckle, then they would leave ukraine because as long symmetric ukrainian infrastructure has been attacked is the status of the war, but ukraine's much anticipated counter offensive is taking this conflict into a dramatic new phase with dramatic consequences. poll brandon, i'll just here for you in secret your general, antonio gutierrez's damage to the dam is a direct consequence of russia's invasion of you crime. we have all seen the tragic images coming up today. if the monumental humanitarian, economic, and then

a logical catastrophe in the cuts and region of ukraine. united nations as no accessed between the pin and the information on the circumstance whose web to add to the destruction of the car calls, but in the car call the the either that the follow up plant them. but when seeing is clear, this is a, not the devastating cost requests of the russian evasion of ukraine. mattel's throughout the joins us live from separation now and chelsea can you just give us an idea of what you've been able to see since you've arrived there? will you join us south subject for resist city on the banks of this vast great reservoir. i'll just ask the camera man in japan round here. we've been speaking to locals. they say that they've seen a drop in the will to levels hear of anything between a meet and to meet this. but when you take into account the size of this body of

water, i mean, for example, the opposite bank. you can see on the left that we estimate to be around 25 kilometers away. you know, a one to, to me, to drop in the water level here is absolutely huge. so you can only imagine the amount of water that is gushing through them. further down the stream and affecting this boss, great area. we already know that certainly according to the president of this country, if a lot of them is zalinski around to 80 settlements, small villages and small towns are being affected. we know that there is an ongoing evacuation of thousands of people from that area on the ukrainian side alone. certainly, according to the government, they saying around $17000.00 people having to be moved. we've seen pictures of emergency teams, evacuation teams going into houses and taking out to some of the families, many of them elderly and infer unable to, to move themselves. and then of course, there's on the other side of the bank, could be areas that on the russian occupation that are also deeply affected. and we

understand that there's around about $20000.00 people on that side that needs to be evacuated. also, as you can imagine, as the hours as we go into the light full into the morning, we can only imagine that this body of water, this boss reservoir will continue to drops. so we know that the ukrainians have accused the russians of squarely being behind this. we know that the russians have didn't know how you did that, but to certainly, according to ukrainian ministry intelligence this morning, they was saying that the russians did this in panic. ahead of was the russians perceive as being a push south by ukrainian full seas. and of course it comes at a time where we have been speculating for so long, but now seemingly with escalating fighting across the region this counter offensive this long awaited counter offensive by the ukrainians seems to be stuffing so well . yeah, it's gonna be very interesting in the next few hours to see the level of the will to drop here and this evacuation effort,

this ball squared evacuation if it continues below them is zalinski. describing this is one of the worst 9 made these offices in europe in decades and describing watches action, basically is using the dad in his words as a weapon of mass destruction. ok, thank you so much. that's tells drafted for us in separation language. angry confrontations had broken out during nationwide protest and from the demonstrations . i'm to pressuring the government into scrapping a little bit. braces, the retirement age presidents, a menu, i'm a chrome falls through the reform earlier this year using special constitutional powers. the move spock months of angry demonstrations unions have promised to keep up the 5 and the coming weeks natasha butler has more from paris or what was the, the company and some of the protesters. so as i've looked across powers for now, at the end of this protest in the, the south to of powers. and what many of them have been saying to us is the same thing that they feel they want to stay in the street. they want to keep demonstration,

keep putting pressure on the french government to try to reverse its pension. to scrap it, even though as i move with a new just uh sign in april, they feel that it's important to still receive. and to happen to mr. tony by the french government hobbies to the notes. i said no, they feel that this noise of the on site and not only because it raises retirement age by 2 years or 64, but also the way in which the french government pushed it full state fight to create 305 boston space. a lot of people right, upset and angry about that opinion polls as the last few months suggest for the majority of which people do not support this report. you know, so lot of and just feel about it. but nevertheless, i have to say false. you are people out in the street and we've seen a recent demonstrations over the past few months. perhaps some people say, look, it's now no, there's no point coming around has reopened to tennessee and saudi arabia and

a move to ease tensions between the regional arrivals. the embassy had been close to 7 years due to a diplomatic rift. the move comes off, the deal broken by china was agreed to re establish diplomatic ties between the 2 countries. saudi arabia is also sent to reopen the embassy in toronto, although no official ties has been since to around. and saudi arabia have a long history of advisory, the 2011 air in the spring. so movement to get protest against the status quo in several countries in the middle east. saudi arabia accused of rendezvous and sizing protests, and by ryan against the royal family around denied the accusation. the, when the civil war and human began in 2015, saudi arabia, back the internationally recognized governments and targeted, who see ripple strong holds. it is believed around backed the who face in 2016, saudi arabia executed a permanent she, i later who was a critic of the saudi government protest isn't around storms the embassies in

a range of 1400 kilometers and the speed of more than 15000 kilometers an hour. that's more than 12 times faster than the speed of sound. it's able to change direction rapidly and avoid most defense systems by traveling outside the earth atmosphere. president abraham bracy, explain why iran has developed such a weapon. battle you about the use it as for the terrace, we build dismissal so that our enemies don't even think about any active aggression against us. this and veiling has a message of security for oil in the region, not just the wrong. people should know the level of security in the entire region has increased that on the spider assurances and promises from the president to the contrary. this development is likely to increase tensions in the region. iran ballistic missile program has been under un security council sanctions since 2006 restriction that's due to be lifted in october as a result of the 2015 nuclear deal. but that is all about that, that's when you're on will be allowed to buy and sell advanced missile technology,

because more him to do visa. you hush? how many make in between that one of the most important characteristics of this missile is it can confront defense systems like that of enemies of around like the us and design is cruising since they have very advanced defense systems. this could have a significant impact on the weapons of the americans are selling specially to regional countries. the iran ballistic missile program is one of the biggest in the middle east. it has more than 1000 short and intermediate blue sickness, all that carry conventional warheads. but they can be converted to carry nuclear ones. that's something the officials continue to maintain. they're not seeking. well, iran says it has made significant gains and it's defensive capabilities over the past 2 years. it's also thought to men's relations with certain countries in the least, mainly saudi arabian egypt. as official stressed, the development of this hypersonic ballistic missile increases security in the entire middle east, it's unclear, regional powers will take the same view,

before we can expect the results. yeah, that's right. and that's before because the kind of thing is going on at the moment, we may find out the results of the accounts. perhaps later on tonight, possibly around 11 o'clock there's going to be a big, uh, sorry, many broadcasts and toys, the tv for the, the results for each district. all right out. but it's not as easy as all of that because there are no political parties here in kuwait. there are no big political blocks. what is going to happen is that for the next hours offices that people are going to be analyzing the positions and political stance is taken by those who are going to gain the 50 seats that are up for grabs in parliament. and that is going to take a lot more time because they're going to have to try and work out for those allegiances lie. and ultimately what the shape of the parliament is going to be. but we're not going to know that until wednesday, probably mid morning. okay. thank you so much. this real medicine for us and quite city. it was still a head on al jazeera. he is facing another process of the days of flooding,
