it begins all coverage as the bees being cleared and bodies because of it from the crash site north of moscow. russia is evasion. agency says if any pre goshen was on the private jet, but it's crushed here. and there were no survivors among the 7 passengers and 3 crew, but kremlin has yet to confirm the death of the head of the notorious rushing most of the force, the walk in a group. the russian aviation federation confirm that the wagner boss was on the passenger list of the flight aviation monitoring websites like radar, says the craft flying from must go to st. petersburg, descended and descended several times before crushing investigative. searching the wreckage for possible causes of the crash, the speculation and baldness social media channels that the jet was possibly shut down. from media report say there's a possibility of an explosion on board. it's not only the regression i who was there a product, a good we during financial backer, but also there may
5:03 pm
a military commander. me please. okay. and so, so apparently it was on that plane. that means that they have lost their financial backing, their political where you during their military leads at the same time. and that means they're the gap of date, the football game. yeah, of, of that for years they've been, you. precaution has been running the wagner group and most indeed recruits involved in many conflicts, including in africa. and part of his fights is of also being key to russia's battlefield. advances in ukraine, but in june for gordon fell out of favor with his long time ally of letting me put him in united mutiny against the president's commanders of the board and ukraine. the pollutants at then that wagner had betrayed russia. and we'll answer for it. boot and later agreed to a deal to allow for going to move to neighboring but who's along with thousands of his fighters? and let's say a precaution was a marked man for publicly humiliating the russian government record. your department groups has the bodies from the cross side will be identified by dna testing and only then,
5:04 pm
but it'd be certain that big ocean is dead and job aid out of there. well, that's big now it's daniel hawkins. he joins us live from moscow. daniel, it starts off by getting the latest on this investigation into the crash while the investigation is gaining some traction. now of course, it is taking some time to establish the full facts and indeed to confirm officially that precaution and meet the organ. what indeed killed in this plane crash to investigate the site. the condition of the body is the condition of the records making it difficult to identify the bodies. now we understand a dna analysis will have to be conducted as part of the autopsy before it can be confirmed officially. now in the last couple of hours. but should media have reported that precautions? some may have provided a d, n, a sample of blood assembled to enable this confirmation to take place. prior to that, the russian media will reports him involved to come on the side unofficially identified
5:05 pm
pre goes in his body, at least in the preliminary analysis spot. the missing part of his finger on his left hand, that also to me, to the old can, but his very distinct tattoos. now investigate this a considering multiple versions of what happened. a priority version though, when this then from russian media reporting is some sort of explosion on more perhaps even more than one explosion. this explosion is alleged to have happened according as the site, the russian media reports in the, in the wheels we across, in the landing gear. lot explosion allegedly caused the wing to fetch and hit the back part of the plane, which the compressed the across and cause it to fly into this spin this. the analysis, this post mortem will take a, perhaps a matter of days. so it will be still some time before we get any official conformation, or at least a preliminary version of what exactly happened in the uh, uh, with the video last night. and that is very interesting,
5:06 pm
is that how little media coverage has been of this in russia given the global attention that's received. yeah, the radio silence has been quite deafening. the watching media largely focused on the brick some. i don't understand that, but it may 0. it's an actual event for rush or of goal is focusing on the speeches of president food single form and it's the psych, a level of who's in attendance the top russian officials also didn't mention the crush or put goals. and that's been the comment from any ministries or the criminal whatsoever on this. and russian media have focused largely, uh, as well as on breaks on stories of national, even regional significance. it's interesting reaction on the grounds from some has been quite emotional. we've seen images of people coming to the blog and offices of petersburg with flowers, with the pool traits with candles one involved in a fight, collapsing to his knees in tears, and caught emotional footage. the reaction low from wagner sufficient or official
5:07 pm
channels has been very measured. they've coolant people not to re post and verify information. and so wait for the results of that meeting of wagner has come on this, which has happened or could happen in the near future. i think there's a lot in the far cuz it'll be very aware that being watched by the security services will be keeping close, sorry for any sort of reaction from them. following that mutiny that took place almost 2 months to the day back in june. daniel hawkins, thanks very much for bringing to the latest that from most go. well motion. mastery is blowing into the wagner group has been active in west africa in recent years. there was a strong ties with syria census notary intervention in the survey and will not precautions failed. rebellion in june shifted influences as in a hotel reports. in october, 2015, russia joined the war in syria is 1st military intervention in the middle east. in decade it changed the balance of power in favor of president discharge,
5:08 pm
a subs like russian airpower didn't do it alone. with a disability, as of a new president, vladimir put it, i didn't want his military to be embroiled in the conflict. in came wagner, a private military group contracted to do the fighting. it helped secure and for the russian interests and saved the syrian government from collapse relative to to other countries. i think their role in, in syria has proven more pivot told because they were involved in direct clashes on the ground. so however, their role recently, at least, militarily has waned alongside the russian military. it's help president a said maintain control of much of the country. but it's role expanded. it benefited economically, whether from revenues from oil and gas, or phosphate mines. it took advantage of
5:09 pm
a failed state and recruited syrians to fight in for an operations. some were sent to the libyan battlefield. wagner is also believed to have used russian naval in air bases as a logistics hub for the global operations. there are those who believe the discourse between the wagner group and the russian military leadership began in syria. is this the division due to the ambitions of arguments headed to goshen, commodities in the russian military will always consent. they always try to prevent him from creating his own empire. they had many disputes on the battlefield. in the wake of wagner's attempted mutiny against the russian military leadership in june, the defense ministry was quick to act in syria to avoid any possible rebellion. russia managed to, uh, i would say hold, oh the, uh, may uh, be brought this to us in, in, in, in,
5:10 pm
in syria. i'm talking about the fact that commanders, they took them to, to maintain bass. no, no news about the future over there. i mean, destiny, but on the ground now i have. what i know is that bag now is being done by the russian military directly. the syrian leadership which helped isolates, wagner, operatives on the ground, was quick to fall in line behind the kremlin center for the el shows either the leaders of the bricks. the lines of 5 nations have invited another 6 countries to join. next year. i origin tita egypt. if you're, if you're wrong, saudi arabia, i'm united arab emirates, so i'll have come present. so around the pose of maybe announcement on the last day of the break summit in johannesburg, i believe is a brazil india, china and south africa has been joined remote fee by russia's president from laska

5:23 pm
heart have failed to convince skeptics. in the south korean capital police arrested student protesters was born the japanese embassy. and so the south korean government is urging the japanese to be open and honest about what's being done. what is on board in our government hopes and the just the japanese government to continue to trans pet into and responsibly disclose information about the process of discharge. that's will continue for the next 30 years. remarks out of aging have not been this, the measured. china reiterated. it's opposition by somebody in japan, some basset or g symbol jones, such an act, legally shift the risk of nuclear pollution to the neighboring countries, including china and the international community. putting his own interest above the long term, well being of people in the region and around the world. it is extremely selfish and irresponsible you before it's a sentiment shared by chinese people,
5:24 pm
especially workers and to see for the industry the most from from how could i not have any effect on us if it didn't, then why would they discharge it into the open sea can they just keep it in their own country or in the future, we will avoid importing these raw materials from japan. we might consider using ingredients from russia. instead, we need to firmly boy called japanese product in the future. of the chinese government. done just that. imposing a blanket to import ben on japanese marine products within hours of the waste water release. when a little bit behind me here is around 3000 kilometers from focusing on the people here and all the way to pacific island nations are concerned because they say water pollution has no boundaries, find it below l. g 0. ok is wanting. that shows to is of drinking more suppose one of the biggest threats to humanity and will lead to more hung up disease and conflict organizations study 20 countries in the middle east, africa and asia,
5:25 pm
and found the what's his gas since he will for us and will then half the walls population in the coming decades. human and use climate change. we'll see he plays in the middle east, increase droughts for west and east africa research to say one and 5 bull hose. dog in that region were found to be dry or to contain most of unfit to drink. mattress prescott is a heads of humanitarian policy. it looks from you talk to us about the reports. a 6 line advisors really is going to be a what's a crisis. and that's a fairly complicated story because as the world hates, thank a lot of people think about this expectation. they think about these kind of hot, dry regions. but actually it also means more rain in the out and see a more water coming down. but in short as pounds of time, so it might actually have more rain that having a flood and dropped cycle effecting different countries. and so as each country gets hit, that will impact the warranty. in some cases, it's most better. disease in some cases is going to change the types of crops that can be growing, that is going to drive patents of migration and people having to move to new areas
5:26 pm
. so really we have to acknowledge to address that crisis, the challenge with harvesting, right? and what is it requires, huge investments and resources, and that's what we're pushing for in, in this reports. so when you look at the, the largest politicos, right? the, the g 20, a producing 73 percent of the world's carbon emissions. the 20 countries we looked at in our reports of a tiny fraction of that, the g 20 produces $45.00 times more common. and so these developing countries are able to, to put in the resources to address the impacts of climate change. but the poorest countries are the ones getting hit. the hardest a firefighter has in greece have been back a walled lots for 6 days. now. on tuesday, they found the bodies of 18 people believed to be migrants in a remote, rural area, high wins of re ignite, of some fires, which were under control and athens. the blazes destroyed several homes and caused jones restless as more from northern grace. i'm standing in the forest in the why the area of alexandro believe where an operation is ongoing and, and ravine just a few 100 meters, a way to put house before using pickaxes and shovels,
5:27 pm
because it's impossible for vehicles to get close to that ravine in dallas. the flames with was uh uh, the area behind me has been burnt in the last 24 hours. its still smoldering. the fire service has been cutting new roads with boulders isn't great, is through the forest to act as 5 breaks. these are the means that are now being brought to bear in a complicated set of 5 friends. in the last 48 hours, we're told more than 200 new fives, have begun, and already more than 60000 hector, as of this region of greece have been done. so the situation is quite desperate. the means to fight many fires on many fronts are limited. at the moment we're seeing these very conventional means being used. they're awesome. helicopters and airplanes that are also being used, but they are few and far between. there's also traditional investigation on the way
5:28 pm
to investigate whether there has been a conspiracy to commit to us. and the supreme court in athens has initiated that it may take weeks or months to bear any evidence if there is any to be found. and there is also a separate investigation on the way to uncover possible acts of incitement to racist violence because we've seen some locals raised the voice is here to say that's possible irregular migrants, i'm documented, migrants crossing over from kentucky and they had been lighting fires. so far there has been no evidence of that that it is a widely floated suspicion. among certain circles in these parts. the person was josh could produce the performance of his career so far. so in gold and the 1500 meters of the world atlantics championships in budapest, outpaced events dominant athletes yak of inc britson to secure his 1st global title . under which the reports olympic champion you can think of britson was the big
5:29 pm
favorites. when the mens 1500 meters in a wage and stuff of the shop defeats the last year's world championships when the last dance of prisons, jake whiteman, budapest, another bridge, some steps up to the challenge. just saying he threw 16 years of training into the final 200 meters to with his 1st world side. so today i just wanted to go out there do myself proud and put together a race that regardless of the position, regardless of the metal color, it was something that i could say, you know, that was an accumulation of hard work, mental strength, and early mornings. and late night, so it was a surreal experience now, but you know, i'm loving every 2nd, had a sore throat. and the end of the time i find the limits got a little bit worse. the next morning today was a lot better. and so i was hoping for it to be just good enough, but apparently it wasn't so just felt uh,
5:30 pm
not very good. the whole break northern region coast in full home was in no mood to me. sounds on his latest. we'll try to the chance. tempted by injury, the 400 feet, the photos olympic champion finished out, took the metals last year. this time, will hon, dominate to the race. so when he's good with somebody, so the women's pulled reduced to go little when is a straight is nina kennedy, an american k to me both played 4.9 meters but missed all 3 attempts to go any higher. they could have goats with jump off, but instead decided to share the goals. you know, katie's, and i'm going to go med list, she's a insurance called med list and i didn't think she would want to share it. you know, she's the absolute champion about sports. so i kind of, you know, i said to go, you want to share this and she was relieved and i was relieved then. yeah i, it couldn't be more of a privilege to share it with k.
