8:07 am
every firm on that's what the county said, that's what the state said, and that's what my director said. so i am not to deviate because we want you to be alive. their boarding up filling up and putting up stores have been cleared, the central supplies. this hospital in tampa cruise are building a 3 meter aqua wall to protect from stone search and flooded for many others. sand bags will be the last line of defense. i'm to find right now, obviously we're on the bad side of it. but worst case is flooding right now. hopefully not too much wind damage. the only tip i would say is with so many more people moving into florida. if you're planning to get away, you started ahead of time because the traffic, it's no kidding, it's horrible. this is going to be a major hurricane. likely a category 3. and it's where it's scheduled the head along this big band. and we've
8:08 am
not really had a hurricane strike this area for a long, long time. if he had to go back to the 1800s, before you would see a pass like this, the hurricane has already swept over cuba, not as strong as it will be over florida, but enough to cause damage to learn a lot about my 2 children and i went through a really rough time inside our home. we needed to leave this place at 2 am, because everything was wet, the mattresses, the beds, the quotes were drenched, everything was drenched. little tom of the national weather service says florida is facing a life threatening dangerous situation. with potential wins of 170 kilometers per hour, it will get stronger as it moves to the floor of the coast. people are being warned . we should expect to spend several days surviving on their own. island, fisher. i'll just see the and how it can evaluate is getting stronger. for now it's categorized as a level 2 storm, but it's expected to hit florida in the areas of weapons state. and it could even become

a category for nbc correspondent priscilla thompson's in one of the parts of florida for residents have been told to leave a theater. k, florida is under a mandatory evacuation folks have until 4 pm eastern time to get out. and what we are seeing is folks continuing to race against the clock to finish those storm. perhaps here these business owners have put up caution tape and effectively open these glass. sliding doors in the front and the back of the building. and their hope is that when that storm surge, which could be up to 12 feet comes through, it will be able to wash right through here and won't actually cause any major structural damage. and so these folks are done for the day, they are heading out and up and down this waterfront. we are seeing businesses boarded up in anticipation of this hurricane, which is preparing to make landfall here in the next 24 hours. already the governor has activated the national guard. we're talking about 5500 national guardsmen
8:10 am
preposition throughout the state. there are thousands of high water rescue vehicles ready to go for those search and rescue efforts if needed. and the message from officials at this point is for folks to get out that now is the time to act, do not wait because they are expecting that this hurricane could be very destructive and potentially even deadly process, as has been targeted by ukraine's largest drone operation. in 18 months, 5 different areas are set to being head. moscow's as for transport planes have been damaged. the military base new, it's a sony and border versus defense ministry says it was able to cancel the attack and the northwest and city of scoff. same military base was targeted in may. an aerospace over moscow, nicole international airport, has also been temporarily closed. all flights are being postponed after drones were shopping, dining overboard guns, and collusion, says west of moscow as the chief of russians, wagner, most of the group is guinea pig goes and has been buried in a private setting. many precautions funded

8:14 am
of the country. as well as the vice president and of a senior government official. so with his 1st floor encryption stores thought that in april it looks like a hon, who's also the head of the sovereignty council. the ruling party of sedan is now taking the reins and control of the diplomatic and political issues and wants to play a greater role in these issues instead of just focusing on the military aspect of the operations here in sedan. so uh, okay, uh, egypt was his 1st stop after he met with several leaders in the red sea city of ports. and then there will be other countries that he was expected to visit in the coming days. neighboring and regional countries all involved in be inclined to end the world right now in the country. but this shows that a general update on he's now also focusing on a political run diplomatic role instead of just on a ministry role. and when it comes to the issues of sedan, still the had an autism anger on the streets of london over the cracks done on top

of the cubes. and taking down a network from the inside us authorities use hackers own tools to beat side or criminals. the the okay, so here's the thing, the winds are turning around a bit for the gulf states. look out for that forecast and one said, but 1st here's a wider look at what i see. and truthfully, not a lot whole lot of sunshine, but of send in does through the empty quarter, saudi arabia, but i promise 3. we talk about the goals states. and here we see that wind coming off the goals. so 40 degrees in doha, on wednesday. but your factor in the human city, i think it's going to feel about 56. now. it is quite breezes through how karachi kinda as bad as it has been as of late, some showers wrapping around the caspian sea. so showers really never too far away
8:16 am
from data on and buckled. for example, on wednesday, turkey looking good. plenty of sun right across the country. a bit more unsettled though, as we look toward the east, through to the caucasus on wednesday, through africa. pulses of rain moving away from west africa. these have the potential to form into tropical storms and hurricanes, and then a pretty good batch of rain. not too far away from tunas. now for central africa, our tropics. here it's our usual scattering of showers and stones particularly intense though as we looked toward camera room and a fairly strong wind is pumping in a bit of heat for cape town, warmer weather, i should say, but that won't last down to 15 on friday. the village estates, control information, controlling the narrative, to dominating the media. how does the narrative improve public opinion and enormous fight?
8:17 am
it might not be the most important story about china of today. but that's what the plastic piece of attention to. how is this has been jim listened. we played in the story, the listening post. i fixed the media. we don't cover the news. we cover the way the news is covered. the, the, [000:00:00;00] the new ones you know, just need a reminder of our top stories. those are millions of people in the us state of florida, a pricing for how to can it down the residence and some parts of the coast to be in order to evacuate. and so very close, widespread damage in cuba, but at least 2 people have died. the chief of the vogtle,
8:18 am
most of the group is guinea to cushion has been buried in a private setting. many of sites in petersburg for the ocean and 9 others were killed in a plane crash last week. in government, senior members of the military have appeared on television saying they are not in control of the country. the controversial election held a few days ago has given the presence of the bunker a 3rd time in office. well, let's listen to the state been made for the army officers own gavin, who stay tv. oh said you tell me to pull up to this, you'll often new thing, an irresponsible, unpredictable governance which results and it continued 18 deterioration of social cohesion, the risks leading the country and scale support in the name of the government. these people, we, the committee for the transition, the restoration of institutions have decided to defend the piece, putting an end to the regime and place the boat as a now closed asset. if it is foreign minister says neighboring news. yeah. should have a 6 month transition period. from military to civilian rules,
8:19 am
julia says the cooling, new job is unconstitutional, added to box deposed president mohammed by soon foreign minister. i'm at our house is also rejecting the use of force to try to solve. the crisis of julia says any military intervention will have dark consequences for new jobs and the region. i haven't messed up who i see yet despite these mental fluids political arrangements with the participation at the consent of all the parties involved in the share without sidelining, anybody, no matter who or what they are, these arrangements should not go beyond the 6 months under the supervision of a civil authority led by a mutually agreed upon figure with the approval of the wider political spectrum manager. and thus conducive to the restoration of the constitutional order in the country. that the will allow me to just report from the judge capital in the i'm a of the position will come as
8:20 am
a shock to many here in is that especially members of the governing causal, the military council that is in power right now. and they, on the days of the cool, a julia made its position known that it is against the intervention military innovation proposed by the economic community of west african states. and of course, although it condemned the quote, it did not come out then to support or recognize president mohammed by them, the deposed president as the legitimate president. i need once the military june, to, to handle the power in 6 months in a transition program. the ministry gender has proposed only has only proposed 3 years to handle a power to political, a civilian administration, a move that was rejected by the economic community to a west african states. probably this proposal was sound uh like good news to echo us, which is trying to resolve this crisis diplomatically without having to resolve or result to military intervention in this country. now the mode in the country right
8:21 am
now is that of a bid on t french. and it's expected to continue with the raleigh's going on almost every day in front of the embassy. and of course, a military base in the capital close to the apple g y 1500 a french troops. i believed to be staying now whether or not the economic community of west africa states. well, i'm well accept the a good proposal we'll see in the next few days. oh so, but right now we expect to it is it is expected that the military administration, yes, india will respond to the attitude and proposal. i've taught the high expectations people heavier, but i'll do that will suddenly or suddenly resolve this crisis diplomatically teachers and fill it out wrong. i mean, definite strike over funding and the government's education policy giving demonstrating outside the presidential product. incentive as though often
8:22 am
use in governments failed to reach an agreement. teachers of the money education reforms. the accounting system was established during the dictatorship of the 1970s in the u. k. that'll be in protests in london because the so called clean air zone has doubled in size. from tuesday, drivers will have to pay a charge to head into any parts of the capitol. it's a vehicles don't use emission standards. london's mayor says the changes are vital to protect people think toxic fumes, air pollution in the city. we said to be well over recommended level search for the world health organization, because the bulk of reports, the issue is becoming increasingly political. you chiva shows that shake a k a the brown call guy drives the modern classic b, m w. so now have to pay $16.00 a day for the ultra low emission. all us charge the schemes. good news for air pollution, but it's bad news for calling sees. yes, we're in the middle of across the living prices. people are really, really feeling the pins and to suddenly hit them with the additional charge in a situation where they may not be able to afford a new car. i think it's completely done just because of the time scale. what's the
8:23 am
short we put in less than 12 months? 9 out of 10 vehicles and london's roads are already compliant. and the on demand is offering $8800.00 to drive is the scrap metal bands and 2 and a half 1000 for calls. but shes odd, wouldn't dream of ditching his pride and joy for others such as plaster a punt smith. the extra cost of running his van puts a strain on his business. what's me, any fuss talking about it that we're going to be getting themselves in that when we've got perfectly good finds the joy of a past the bill on to the customer full of just the sort of self study. com says the science is clear, previous lower emissions science and central and in a london cup home full pollutants drastically. office at a 5000000 mole on that as well. the breathing played a i've been quite clear from the outset decision to expand the us. it was a difficult one, but as
8:24 am
a box and one is the right thing to do. the new expansion covers 1500 square kilometers and nearly 700000 liable cause making it the largest low emission zone in the world. there was absolutely no doubt among scientists, someone's health professionals under most people who experience this every day, the appellation is having a devastating effect on our health. if we look at the impact of the original us, there was clear data that that was massive improvements and how the goal of the way the guys have them and say, because i see very little of the government can do the new life, given that england recently moved into making the legally sound the conservative party candidates a 13900. the issues also become massively politicized. after a recent election and form a prime minister post johnston's old, $60.00, which the opposition labor policy had been expected to seize the constituency
8:25 am
easily from the ruling conservatives, but were instead punished for the labor london mass plans and gave away from a general election utilize could play a driving role. the buffalo for downing street, the bulk around which is 0 london, cyber security expos from the fbi i in europe of shutting down no malicious software network responsible for more than 40 run some attacks around the world. cyber crime detective, same malware known as con, bought, had infected, more than 700 files and computers, and netted those behind it. more than $58000000.00. the operation to take down cardboard involved, law enforcement agencies. susan, 52 servers and using remote software to remove the malware from computers. jody westby is chief executive of global cyber risk. it provides cyber security services and she says, cardboard was dangerous and it was hard to take done. and finally, through a coalition of international law enforcement,
8:26 am
they were able to undertake this action through some court order. they said they gained law for the f. b, i gained lawful access to the button, its infrastructure. so that indicates to me, they got a court order somewhere, most likely in the united states to get access to that computer. so they could then issue that instruction to on it uh, download the malware the software to uninstall it, uninstall it. so it's very hard to track and trace cyber crimes because we have a legal framework that is antiquated. we have the internet that goes all over the globe and everybody communicates without any borders except law enforcement. prosecutors, government officials, diplomats all have a boarders and they have to stop and then ask for assistance. and so you can't pack track and trace hacking into a computer unless you have assistance in every country that it went through. and so
8:27 am
it's a very time consuming process. it's one we don't have a legal framework to really support except in, in some countries. and so it, it makes it almost a perfect crime for criminals because it's very hard to catch them to, to find out who they are and to catch them. and when it's a global network of computers, then you're into a global set of jurisdictions, which makes it even more difficult. so it's a very hard problem that has been desperately needing international cooperation for the past 20 years. so this, this rarely was encouraging to me. the spokesman for the un secretary general, it says he's worried that audra 0 journalists are still in prison. in egypt, probably all shake has been held for more than 2 years, beheld in a book, and has been in jail for over 3 years. their detention exceeds the pre trial period stipulated by egypt in law. i think the secretary general's been very clear and
8:28 am
expressing is concerned about the situation in many parts of the world of thinking, civic space, shrinking space for journalists. and in that sense we, we echo the, the words of vocal attractive high commission for human rights, who called for the immediate release from any arbitrary detention of journalists, or just trying to do their work. that would be a says it won't allow bail for 11 people in charge with espionage, and the group includes 5 injections, and then what arrested for the entering of restricted zone of the socket airport 2 weeks after the thirty's seized the plane along with guns, cash. and fake gold. let me take you back to that story when covering earlier in that to in gap on the senior members of the military have appeared on tv saying that they now control the country. it follows the elections that were held in the last few days, which was controversial and upon they have given president ali bundle a 3rd time in office taught a connor is assigned to an executive director of africa, risk consulting. she's joining us in bordeaux in funds. thank you very much indeed
8:29 am
for being with us. i'm any longer has been in power as far as i can tell since about 20 o 9. why do you think that this action has been taken? well, i think what is very clear is that domestic politics are extremely unpopular across west africa. and so, but i do think this is opportune to stick on the parts of the military offices following the military tubes that have taken place successfully. it has to be said in need. molly, booking a file. so what charl neighboring countries and with to the leading military would have relations. i understand that a government as part of opec oil is one of its main exports. and one would imagine that this is, however long this, this goes more in the early hours of what's being, what's been happening. but this is going to have a significant concerns for the oil producing nations and buyers, of course,
8:30 am
around the world. yes it will, i, i mean, i think it certainly is very disturbing on many fronts. it's a, it is yet another country that was formerly a dictatorship and i look at ali, ben bohn, guys, father, that actually moved towards democracy and has had the, you know, relatively successful and peaceful elections. but i think much more interesting is its position in relation to the front. because double is one of 14 countries that he's very closely tied to france and it uses a french current, save a french fact currency. in fact, to you, right? about currency the see if a friend. so while you know a gap, always use an important member of a peck, it's relations with fonts are, i think much more critical to this to,
