8:17 am
rains and lands lives across the southeast of the country have killed at least 7 people, full wherever he can get in a refugee camp and thousands have been forced from their homes to be a child who joins us live now from chapter i'm kind of as a how expensive is the damage in flooding across the country at the moment is quite expensive from what we are learning. just spend cox's but uh alone about 300000 people have been inspected and insides the campus police in there are having a refugee camp that is at least 1500 shelters of homes. red destroyed 200 people that have are created and buttoned up by another district within the truck. they're growing division. nearly 30000 people are maryland or dislocate that most of these people are in dire need of food. fresh water. the army has been deprived since yesterday. to assist the local government, people trying to get them really friend, freshwater communication is disrupted. the 4 major district that's been hit.
8:18 am
basically i cut off because a lot of the road communication has been disrupted. they could do this up in march and for last few days, the flood water electricity is not there. many of the people are leaving the remote isolated mountain areas. you want to be able to get there. and a lot of this paper are indigenous, tribal to people, at least 50 percent of the people living in the what is known as southeastern to that on hill tracts. area in bangladesh are indigenous tribal people. they prefer to live inside the forest area in high mountain top. so those people are still not accounted for. what happened to them in this torrential? yeah, they're highly brand new, but to land slight that that is one of the biggest problem. i mean the lower areas, it's the flood. it's been raining for the last, almost 6 days continue. i tell you it was raining just about an hour and i go and probably will start and for next several days. and some of it, i mean, every year there are a lot of slides every year. there are lots,
8:19 am
lots and lots in cox's bizarre but houses a 1000000 refugees. how about people the coping then or? well that's something they have to face every year as you have pointed out this, the highlight burner. malaria, it's tons of psych loan just few kilometers from the 5 kilometers. maybe from the bay of bin goes. so they're highly burned about the site blown as well as blend landslide, because a lot of the running of are living and sloping hills and there would be for us, they'd run, they actually came here in 2017. luckily, a lot of the trees are planted with the help of the u. n. and other agencies. a lot of canals have been bid to divert the flood water. so some improvement did take place. this trees are actually protecting the top, so i love the feel. and that is one of the problem in bangladesh, the bottom of him, illegal heal cutting deforestation. so we'd say more and more land slide when that
8:20 am
is karen shown rain, which you can use to be maybe a few decades ago. but man made intervention, i've caused much my worst thing, same with flooding drains are clogged with plastic pollution. a lot of men made intervention is causing a lot of this problem. an oddly warning system, how to like sites along which is bangladesh, what is known as far some of the best warning system, the after doing that for land slide as well. all right, the challenge we live for us, the instructor graham tunnel here. thank you. how does the firefighters are battling awhile? 5, spreading towards the outcome of portugal top tourist destinations. huge areas of land in school except for 4 days, forcing more than a 1000 people from their homes. high temperatures and strong winds have compet efforts to control the plays in a self this to new jersey now where the political chrysler shows no sign of abating the military leaders of the crew that took place 2 weeks ago have refused to welcome delegations from the united nations, the african union, and the regional block echo was the gym to say that safety cannot be guaranteed.

sparking a wider region will make that happen. it could lead to a deterioration in the already difficult fight against all groups, like both of our i so they'll call it a, we have multiple levers on which we can leverage to achieve the end that we are seeking to achieve, which is to uphold that. it was protocols by ensuring that there is a return of civilian democratic rule under the leadership of president. by zoom. the refusal bondage is cou, lead is to allow entry into the country by combined united nations african union. an echo us delegation comes 2 days before a 2nd. emergency echo as summit on the crosses. it's expected the focus of that summit will be discussions about a potential last result. military solution of the diplomatic avenues are still open, but the roof is that they are becoming increasingly slim. joel strap it down to 0.
8:24 am
the co, china is exports of stuff with the west full since installing the corona virus pandemic, and uh, the 2020 export plans by 14.5 percent in july compared with a yearly unfolding demand from the us. and europe inputs dropped 12.4 percent in july compared to the same period in 2022, indicating fully domestic dom on an economic growth of just 0.8 percent. and the 3 months ending in june, compared with the previous quarter, that's the equivalent of 3.2 percent, annual growth, which would be among china's weakest in 3 decades. robots go to the economic and financial analyst. he says china is decline and exports in part due to the global economics slow down. so there's a technical components here. um i, i think that when the global economy recovers from the slow down there were currently in the chinese exports made pick up again a part of the climate exports in china had to do with the long term effects of the
8:25 am
tariffs impose 5 years ago by president trump beginning in 2018, and uh, what time is it? and initially and response, many of us companies simply rewrite it productions through other countries or moved the factories to vietnam and thailand and mexico and other other places. they still saw growing exports of china as total global exports continue to grow through last year about the turning report. the point has been reached this year where it's a global slowdown. and i think the uptake or the uptick in the companies are moving their sourcing to work the closer to the destination in greenfield investment is china has fallen dramatically over the last 5 years. and i think reflects the change in sourcing strategy concerns of growing about the state of the us economy off our credit rating agency. moody's downgraded several banks. it comes on the
8:26 am
heels of last week's announcement by another agency. fitch downgraded the us credit rating from aaa to double a plus, citing concerns of a pool governance and over spending us treasury secretary john dylan dismissed the move, while investors remained cautious. william leads the chief economist at the milk and institute. he says the downgrades are wake up cove as motor banks, but the officers have no reason to worry us. depositors are protected by the federal deposit insurance corporation. every deposit of the 250000 or half 1000000 . depending on, on how you structure it is protected by the government and guaranteed by the government. so i think those people don't have to be afraid. if you have more than a $1000000.00 at one bank and one deposit, you should get nervous and but what are you doing with a $1000000.00 and $1.00 deposit and one bank. the overall banking sector actors very safe because most of the banking assets are the larger things like jp morgan city, bank of america. and those are very sick because they've been stress tested stuff of always and they've been proven to be so the movie is asking me,
8:27 am
the question will be us hot, neat, 4000 bench and maybe 5 or 10 years now. we'll only have 2000 advice because many of them are no longer useful as financial institutions, as people start to change the way that they think it's a wake up call to a lot of the smaller banks that are depending on interest rates for their living. and that, that they take, depending upon the spread between the deposit rates and lending rates to make money and, and right now that spread is getting awfully tough to work on. and as interest rates rise, or what the, the, these smaller banks are finding is that the profit of being squeeze. that's why so many things start merging with each other because they just can't make it alone. and but going forward, the us banking system as a whole is very so specific, individual banks may not be viable. and that's what the, the markets are trying to sort out right now. a hearing in the case against donald trump in connection with his alleged attempt to overturn the 2020 presidential election will be held on friday. prosecute as well as the judge to limit to what
8:28 am
the former president can shed during the trial. let's say he could use some evidence to potentially intimidate witnesses or defense lawyers argue that any protection or that would violate from constitutional rights from says he will speak publicly about the case number one, prosecute to say, chaper tons. he has more from washington dc. the before the actual trial can begin in this particular case, which deals with the, the allegations that donald trump tried to overturn the results of the 2020 election. we go through vice pre trial free trial procedures including a this is what's called a discovery phase. that's when both sides reveal the evidence of age have to bolster the cases. now what the special counsel is saying, the prosecution is given. donald trump's, his, his willingness to, to post on social media what they're worried about, as well as the hand over all the evidence that they have against the little drug.
8:29 am
he'll start broadcasting it effectively on social media and on other platforms. and this could include very sensitive information, grand jury testimony, identifying information about witnesses. and so what the special counsel was all doing was like one this will potentially then try the case even before it gets into, into the court room and the court of public opinion. i'm too it may have a chilling effect on witnesses and whether they will actually come afford for the trial. donald trump's defense team says no wait, donald trump has to be able to talk about the case again. so if it's as last amendment constitutional right to talk about the case. sure. if there's really sensitive material that can be restrictions on that. but we need to be really careful about about not, not both impinging on donald trump's ability to is a freedom of speech. so what we'll have on friday then will be the judge hearing by the arguments and then, and then eventually making some sort of decision we're hearing from legal explicit . perhaps they'll be some, some middle ground found that we don't know yet. a virus thing. an active is shanita kind of it has been laid to rest, stop to has sudden,
8:30 am
death at the age of 56, last month thousands of people lined the streets of her home town of bray to pay their respects. a private funeral service took place on tuesday morning with the cortege then passing through the irish seaside town. i'll come as best mount uh 1990 hit. nothing compares to you. it's catch up over to the world wide face. the top a picture of a headlines here on how does it relate as of 8 south american countries have agreed to reduce the foreigner station in the amazon a method of summit and brazil, and signed a declaration to conserve the world's largest ring. far as the critics say, it doesn't go far enough as i'm i was one of them believing that on many of the amazons of bolivia, brazil, columbia, who according to the name you guy.
