waste city is not the man the whole world will know about this. russian ball cried the crime of co size such deliberate destruction by the russian suppliers of the dam is an environmental form of much destruction. the will should show now that russia cannot get away with such tara, that this is the reservoir up stream from the destroy them, and it is a vast body of water. we estimate the banks that you can see behind me in the distance around 25 kilometers away. the locals that we've spoken to here say the direction that the water level today has dropped any way between a meta ends. 2 meters. we expect in the coming hours and days for the level to continue dropping on that basis. one can only imagine the kind of devastating effect that is heavy on affected areas. so all the time, the russian officials gave conflicting accounts of denial. some saying the damage

burst on its own, most pointed the finger of blame, back to crane sitting at appreciate you and trying to prevent me offensive operations by the russian army along the section of the front line. the key by seem committed an act of sabotage or temporary stocked, it led to the floating of substantial evidence of serious and lifting environmental consequences. before and of the satellite imagery again reveals the extraordinary extent of the deluge. the sluice gates of the down, the being gushing older since late last year, when rush into this occupation of the city of cancelled and withdrew its troops across the deliberate river. russian forces can control the dam itself and it previously destroyed the road running along with some of this for russia, you can see the read your beneficial video, something that, that connection for you training and forces to get across. and also i would say that if they're not planning on saying that for the long time, 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 since the start of the war. ukraine's accounts were offensive. he's taking the war into a new phase with dramatic consequences. child stratford, which is 0, separation journal is really got shop of alova has the reaction from moscow. a rush has an investigative committee say, has launched a criminal case and to the destruction of the dime on the whole scope. house station cooling is a terrorist attack of crumbling, sparks passing to meet her best calls. i have said that the destruction of the ca hope scott station is a deliberate sum baton rouge from ukraine. that for all the responsibility for the situation should be own ukraine. russia rejected old allegations of its involvement in that talk. he also added that the destruction of the dumb had been carried down by cube because it's counter offensive,

could achieve any goals according to pest cove, one of the goals of the ukrainian sabotage was to deprive the crime in penny's hello volta meanwhile, versus the defense minister showing good cold the dom incidents a terrorist attack and that it was committed in order to prevent the offensive actions of the russian armed forces. according to showing, grew, the opinion, ami had launched a long promised defensive in several parts of the front. in the course of, uh, the last 3 days and then now is that 71 russian ministry pesto now had died during those past 3 days. and uh, maria is a harwood, the foreign ministry, sparks passed, and the road, and had telegram channel that russia had the wound, un security, un secretary genuine brother, antonio gutierrez, about ukraine's intentions to destroy the a cat hole sketch station. and now it was asking him about what was done to prevent the disaster. yury, soc,

is an advisor to ukraine's minister of defense. he says their investigation shows. russia is to blame for it to destroy them. our defense intelligence. ready already has evidence and proof of the fact that this was a pre planned man, light artificial technological disaster, a terrorist act, and the time comes and when the international war crimes tribunal is set up. of course, all of this evidence will be put before it drop off for some parts of this hydro electric done, which can not be inspected by the draining side because they are not flooded. and before that they were on the control of the dresser. but at the same time, i don't think we can actually have a presumption of innocence when we speak of terrace, who have been indicted already by the international criminal called these of the same terrace who are aligned to us on a daily basis about everything about the gaining control in bottom moved about

their losses about the games. we are confident and we have shown already that it was possible for you pregnancy site to do anything with them. the destruction of dams, as well as other critical subjects. up infrastructure is definitely a real crime under the geneva conventions. article 50 start 6. uh if i'm not mistaken. so in reality, you know, i've already said that will be an international war crimes tribunal. and at the moment, there are actually 38 states who have expressed their willingness to set top such a tribunal to try the war of aggression and to try all of the crimes of the united nations security council has held an emergency meeting to discuss the collapsed um, and for us on the un warren, that hundreds of thousands of people on both sides of the front line could be affected. both russia and ukraine use the session to blame each other, or diplomatic editors room space reports from the un of the un secretary general

antonio terrace was quick to express his concern about the gravity of the situation following the dams collapse. united nations, there's no excess between the bed and the information on the circumstance whose web to add to the destruction. but one thing is clear, this is a, not the devastating cost requests of the russian evasion of ukraine. in a hastily convene security council meeting. both russia and ukraine lane to each of the destruction occurring in a still evolving situation. it is physically impossible to blow it up somehow from the outside, by selling it to his mind by the russian occupiers. and they blew it up of russia's ambassador had earlier, told me that makes no sense a tool. why with with to it. and besides, through canadians was threatening to the devil type, including an addition, they were saying adult for mutual depressed, you cranes close to stylized. made it clear that while information still being

gathered, the ultimate blame must rest with russia. but let's not forget that the key fact here in its russia invaded ukraine, is occupying the territory, including that damn it controlled. and so that's an important point here, russian, if you get his troops out of ukraine, so far, none of the members of the security council of oss, the un secretary general to set up a formal un inquiry into what happened at any such inquiry would be extremely difficult, given the dams location, is still in active conflicts, and james bays out is era of the united nations. the whole, the canadian province of quebec has become the new up a center of wild fires which have devastated the country for weeks. about a $160.00 fires were burning in the province on tuesday. authorities say there are

about $400.00 active walls fires across the country, and half of them are considered out of control. there is an international effort to combat the flames, including firefighters in the us, australia, and south africa, while the smoke from the fires of turn, the sky reds in new york city, the mayor encourage residents to limit outdoor activities and several parts of eastern canada and the us of issued health advisory is because of the poor air quality, the speak to mike flanagan, who's a professor wildland fire at thomson rivers university. he's in edmonton, alberta, joining us from there. well controls is 0. so as we're saying, hundreds of fires burning right across the country, tell us what it's like an alberta and what impact the wall as far as are having their so elbow started off with a really active fire season earlier in may. right now the extreme fires are northern alberta and northeast in b. c, southern northwest territories. of course 2 backs on fire right now. right. so what

are the primary causes of these wildfires, and are there any sort of specific factors contributing to this severity this time around? so in queue back, most of these fires are lightning that most of the fires in, in the rest of canada are human caused in spring. lightning generally dominates once we get to summer and we're getting starting to get summer, but we've had that hot, dry, windy weather and this is unusual to get in such a large area from coast to coast. and yeah, it's, i hate to use the word, but it's unprecedented in our modern record. right now we're approaching an area that's equivalent to $25.00 times the area of london, england. so say norma's amount of landscape. and these fires will continue to burn for weeks and months. of course, the smoke it generates or is there somebody to reset about the role that climate

change is playing and the frequency and, and the, the intensity of the wall fires in canada right now. a sure yes, we are seeing more fire because of human cause climate change. i cannot be clearer than that western united states as seen at quite grouping of area bern since 19 seventies. canada seen a doubling of area bern since the early seventy's. and this is largely not solely but largely attributed to human cause. climate change generally, the warmer it is, the more fire we see because warmer weather means longer fire seasons, warmer weather means more lightning, especially in the summer where most of our area burned occurs. and warmer weather means that down stairs more efficient at sucking the most you're out of the vegetation, the fuel, which means you have dryer fuels, easy, preferred start, easy for fire spread means more fuels available to burn, which means a higher intensity fire, which is difficult to impossible to extinguish,

and we've seen air quality alerts having been issued and not only in canada as all also in parts of the us, like new york, or what are the potential long term effects on air quality? was that the longer the episode last the the for drastic, the facts and right now of here have any respiratory issues, nothing strenuous outside. where in 95 mass, if you can shut your windows air filters inside the more we know about while then fire smoke, the more we know what health hazard this is for human health, especially pregnant women, young children, people with respiratory problems. this is quite serious. um, over $340000.00 people die prematurely globally every year due to while then fire smoke. so this is a serious episode. okay, thank you so much, mike. finally going for speaking to us from edmonton, alberta, thank you. a place for people have died and dozens have been injured after

a magnitude 4.9. earthquakes struck southern haiti on choose day access to the remote ground. dante region has been challenging, so aid has been slow to arrive. rescue workers are still searching for survivors in the rubble. week infrastructure has left the nation valuable to natural disasters. still ahead on ultra 0, i'm just to can washington and china with storage. these are encouraging young people to move to the countryside. unemployment hits as greco time and the biggest tech company enters the world of augmented reality. the . the had a lot of that was stopped by looking at the satellite image of a south asia. and you can see the dentist shop

presenting it as a mass market product it is, in reality, meant to be one. this is a device that is intended primarily for infuse the absence of tests, the market, the tests that initiative technology at this early stage. but crucially, it's the software behind it which operates cooling, the vision of us, which is designed to serve as this platform to its rates on over a number of years. because the long term goal here is not this vision pro device. it is the long time ambition of apple. well, so it is believed to augment it reality glosses several years lights down the line that could actually serve as a small sort of replacement for apple is able to offer something in a more premium package. with that ecosystem advantage, that ties and everything from apples to its television programs. it's in view of that, but it's able to combine these different devices to offer something a little bit more compelling. and again, this is not a device that is meant for everyone. apple has to start somewhere. whenever we look at all the devices, like the apple watch,
