the bridge should be held accountable. rescue efforts in general this morning. firefighters and doctors worked throughout the night pulling survivors out of the rubble they're hopeful they'll find more. but they're also facing the grim reality recovering the dead. emergency workers say the most difficult part of the rescue effort is still to come. from this evening will start moving some of the biggest segments of concrete from the collapsed bridge. in order to create new spaces for teams to enter and check for other survivors the question of. when there were any motorway bridge collapsed dozens of vehicles plummeted to the ground killing and injuring many and leaving behind a huge gap in the city's bridge. after

seeing the collapsed bridge for himself italian prime minister two separate content was somber. from what i have personally ascertained so far the number of dead will increase. at this moment it's an incredible tragedy above all because there has not been an explosion or an accident just we are working on the hypothesis of a structural failure. of this and. this is the moment the tragedy struck. the bridge which had been undergoing repair work collapsing during a tarantula downpour. for now the focus is on the rescue. but many italians of course now asking how this could have happened and as the tragedy sinks in who if anyone is responsible. just one of the questions out there today let's go straight to the scene correspondent charlotte. pills on the ground for us in genoa

charlotte how's the rescue operation coming along right now and how difficult is the task that emergency workers are facing. well he's spoken to a number of rescue workers here in genoa they are telling us that they do still have hope that most of his will be found there are of course a number of people still thought to be missing but let's not forget we are over twenty four hours now from the time that this disaster hope is starting to fade gradually that they will find survivors of course the death toll has britons of reasons today we've had more bad news of course this is a huge logistical nightmare for those on the ground just behind me trying to search for survivors there are numerous slabs of concrete that they have to be incredibly cathal with they worry of course that the concrete could collapse perhaps crushing anybody that could still be alive underneath the rubble there saying that they're treating this very much like an earthquake just using small equipment sniffer dogs

trying to see if anyone is still alive in the wreckage but of course there is a very real concern that as time goes on the search for survivors kids then turn to a search for bodies ok what are local people saying charlotte you've been talking to some of them what's been their reaction to the collapse of this major bridge in genoa. the people that we've spoken to are still very much in shock this is a huge part of the city this bridge behind me was something that people would use at least once or twice a day it was called the brooklyn bridge a generator is a huge part of the landscape here people simply cannot believe that this is happening we've spoken to one person who said that he's been evacuated from the building just that he had the collapse of the bridge he said it sounded very much like an earthquake for these people this is a crisis that's still ongoing he doesn't know when he's going to return to what there are concerns of of gas leaks in the building behind him say this is still very much an active situation there is also a feeling among many people here of the lack of surprise while the shops they're

not surprised they said that they were very worried about the safety of this bridge long before this collapse we spoke to one man in fact who said that he whenever you drive across this bridge he would drive very fast just because. he was not it's about traveling on it ok you know that points out the issue of who's responsible for what happened you tell him government has taken the bridges private operator to task also the government's taken to task the european union what can you tell us about the dispute as to who's responsible for this. well this is the feds national crisis facing italy's new government and they really have come out fighting attributing blame to multiple sources one of them the course as you mentioned as being the company that operates this stretch of road out to study there are allegations from the government that they weren't doing enough to protect the safety of this bridge they went doing enough when it comes to maintenance that is something that also studies fiercely deny they said that the maintenance checks were up to date but there are big questions being asked that members of the

government in fact think that the have to be high profile resignation they're saying that they want the names and said names of the people that are found to be responsible for this as you mentioned as well they think as they're also being pointed to the european union there's this claim that budget restrictions meant that said not enough money was able to be spent here in italy on infrastructure there are so many people here they say it's too early for the blame to the finger pointing there is still people potentially in the wreckage behind me the focus here have to be on them ok and the focus will very much remain on them in the hours ahead charles until while more for us on the ground there in general thanks very much trauma. it's to india now and the indian prime minister narendra modi has announced the launch of an ambitious new health care program he made his comments an address to the nation marking independence day the new system modi care to provide medical insurance for some one hundred million poor families but critics

say it's unclear how it would be financed in the same speech modi also said india plans to send a manned mission in the space by twenty twenty two. the sleeping elephant is now awake the words of indian prime minister narendra modi as he unveiled his vision for the world's largest democracy seventy one years after the country's independence modi has his sights set on space and a bold healthcare scheme. in a key speech ahead of next year's elections he outlined the largest state funded health program the world has ever seen. a hundred million families that is nearly five hundred million citizens will each receive five hundred thousand rupees nearly. this is the health insurance scheme we would

give to this country the program dubbed moti care is set to begin this september it aims to bring quality health care to millions of impoverished people some ninety percent of the population rely on public hospitals which are severely under-resourced but there are doubts about how the large scale program will be implemented and financed. modi used his speech to announce a second ambitious project the launch of india's first manned space mission by twenty twenty two a feat only three other countries have achieved. but not everyone is buying it some critics see modi's plans as populist measures aimed at securing his reelection. let's get a look down some of the other stories making the news at this hour israel has reopened its only commercial crossing with gaza weeks after closing it in response to rocket attacks from hamas. trucks carrying food fuel and construction material

passing into the territory wednesday gazans for a lawyer crossing for vital commercial supplies. a taliban attack on a military base has killed at least forty afghan soldiers and police in the northern province of bug log local officials say militants stormed the base in a number of checkpoints overnight before setting fire to the facilities the attack comes after a massive taliban assault on the eastern city of gosling last week. it's to the us now on a grand jury in the state of pennsylvania has published a report on the sexual abuse of children by roman catholic priests and says at least one thousand children were molested and raped by priests over a period of seven decades the report accuses senior church officials including the man who's currently the arch bishop of the u.s. capitol washington d.c. of systematically covering up reports of paedophilia among the catholic church. in

approving this report more illegal three hundred claridge men have been accused of sexually abusing children in pennsylvania unchecked for decades officials say their investigation found systematic cover ups not just by church leaders in the u.s. state but also in the vatican rely on the euphemisms the church priests were raping little boys and girls and the men of god who were responsible for them not only did nothing they hid it all for decades. some of the victims now adults were at the press conference others described their helplessness in a video released by investigators. it's a month old who believe me all released in nineteen forty eight or forty seven would have buz you. do that never heard of such a thing because they covered it up the grand jury find that more than one thousand

children were abused over seventy years they see the real number though might be much higher. a staggering grand jury the stuff we're joined now by did abuse us it's correspondent martin jacques is following the story first good morning to you martin this is horrific there's no way to really qualify this one thing one way i could think of describing it we're talking about at least one thousand children perhaps thousands abused over seventy years how could the catholic church in pennsylvania cover this up for so long well very likely many thousands i mean very very likely in this is a global phenomenon as we have seen over the last couple of years i think that by and large what we have is a system that is not only guilty of hosting sexual abusers but more importantly it has managed to produce descale of abuse by essentially becoming a cover up organization and it was said by by the grand jury when in no uncertain terms that essentially the church had operated along the lines of

a criminal organization so it is notable that most of these priests were moved just when in pennsylvania it's much more often that we see that priests actually are very very remote places from their original they also says which means that they're essentially very difficult for us acute and sometimes i mean they're put in places where it's much easier for them she continued perpetrating these kind of this kind of crisis of priests were protected rotated around into different parishes of different dioceses within ten sylvania there's only been two charges brought against the more than three hundred abusers in this case well why is that well partly because crime spree scribes so that means to say that there are a bunch of these states is that quite simply cannot be prosecuted i mean we heard in the video somebody that was was abused i mean we don't know exactly the nature of the use in one hundred forty eight or forty seven so that crime can no longer be prosecuted nonetheless the fact is that the number it's very very large one third

of them seem to be from it's burgen we have to give in mind the pennsylvania has about three million catholics so it's a. i concentrated on of the catholic community and that means that presumably more things are actually going to unfold over the next few days and months ok you know this report tied to the grand jury accuses senior church officials including the archbishop of washington d.c. of having been complicit in the cover up what consequences can can happen what are you imagining i mean i think you can hear there is a very specific end game and that in game was seen a couple of days ago as a matter of fact in chief. prosecutor investigating sexual abuses at the vatican to release documents the vatican has not only done it itself but indicated to all its churches that they're not allowed to share this kind of information by and large with national authorities if there were enough pressure to actually force of attack

and to force its churches to turn these documents to local authorities the story of sexual abuse would radically change because now we would begin to see you know it must persecution but on the other hand we would actually get a very good and i fear a very very ugly glimpse of what he said true scale of the success ok so we can expect some pressure on rome to release those documents concerning this case martin thanks very much for the pleasures. it's to a somber anniversary in sierra leone now where a mountainside collapsed under the weight of rain one year ago tons of modern rock crashing onto the homes on the slopes around the capital freetown an estimated one thousand people were killed another three thousand left homeless the city in this west african nation has been have been soaked at the time by three days of heavy rainfall that along with rampant deforestation and construction illegal construction lead to one of africa's worst flooding related disasters in recent times a year on the w.'s adrian trees traveled to freetown to meet

a man who lost much of his family in the tragedy. it's a painful journey for maliki camera who has returned to where he used to live in regent a suburb of the capital freetown. camera lived here with his family for ten years he remembers the day vividly exactly one year ago when he went to work early in the morning in the pouring rain. shortly after a powerful mudslide destroyed hundreds of homes including his own. last year at this time i was still sitting here with my family we talked to the children not going out and i'll never be able to see them again courts are going over for no one is helping me i'm suffering and i was hurt so much. i was over it so i could. almost his entire family was killed by the mudslide his daughter fatima just seven months old. his wife.

the only survivor was his twelve year old son daniel who was rescued with severe injuries. cameras says he was given the land by local authorities but there was no official building permit so who's to blame. the government governments the government is to blame we weren't living in the so-called green belt where construction is prohibited so we built a house is outside the area in a section marked to see if it was to be mates. the environmental protection agency has a different view it says the houses were built in the green belt illegally but the new head of the agency does admit that in the past there were hardly any checked there we're not supposed to be and that's why i say it was due to weak governance because nobody was supposed to be housed. according to environmental activist highest to say residents were also to blame for last year's catastrophe she says he

tried to warn people just. two weeks before the disaster. people we are cutting down trees and the forest to meet up with dick then people who have been in chap called the out people to be at mining stones in that particular area they also do a wildfire we did in the forest so what's happened it's all we can use this way and because the smells will leak and that's one of the reasons several factors contributed to the disaster last year inefficient off citizens that we can or the risks deforestation a massive population growth on the heels of freetown additionally climate change has been causing much less frequent but stronger rain falls that is why op service warn of further disasters in the future. leaky camera and other survivors now live in emergency accommodations provided by the government they may be safe but they are an hour outside the city center. there's no running water and

no schools in the area but residents still have to pay rent. a year after the devastating mudslides camera still doesn't know what the future holds for him and his son. we have some tennis news now a real blow for serina williams as she crushes out of the second round at the cincinnati open the former world number one struggling in the first that against eight seed peter cave a told but williams rallied to take the second to give it over serves though to mushrooms to handle the check coming out on top in the third set to advance williams says afterwards that it's still early in her comeback after giving birth to an entire. walls here a basket and a heat wave one good way to cool down to a depth of course in the sea a swimmer from anyone has taken that idea to

a challenging new level ross actually breaking the world record for the longest stage managing an incredible seventy four days out swimming in the atlantic and he's not done yet on this summer outing he's hoping to swim all the way around britain thirty two hundred kilometers. actually set off on his epic journey on the first of june he swim six hours and then rest six hours on his support boat swimming at night is the toughest no it's what. shouldn't have been that period where are all of you would see you. all the way now so this is the right that the east through me sleeping at night. actually has faced many obstacles has been battered by the wind in a way. but jellyfish pose the biggest danger is the best case. was case. she has as the top says basically around you pull the they saw this is

that if you go to the battlefield little bit ways classes will sort of start to play which makes pretty good a little bit difficult and also as well just kind of muscles going into spasm he's already set the new world record but he still has a long way to go actually is only just over halfway into his three thousand two hundred kilometers swim around britain. while there are easier ways to cool off during this european heat wave of years here and now in the turkish lira staging a comeback today that's right but the problems are still ongoing in turkey that's for sure brian turkey is taking its diplomatic and trade dispute with the united states to the next level slamming tariffs on a variety of u.s. products american rice will see a fifty percent tax alcoholic beverages will pay one hundred forty percent and other consumer goods like tobacco and cosmetics will see tariffs of up to sixty percent the move is part of a response by the turkish government that also included

a call by turkish president of egypt out of the one to boycott u.s. products including the i phone the president who as you can see actually once was a fan of apple products is now switching to another brand the question is will his people do the same. istanbul's electronics stores are still stocking apple's i phones they're popular in turkey the second most sold smartphones in the country but president. is calling on his people to boycott american brands and switch to others instead. all over the world. on the streets many seem to think that a boycott of u.s. brands is easier said than done it with or the government would have to stop apple products from entering the country and banned their sale how's that supposed to work you can't just make the i phone disappear from turkey. and get it delivered to

the reason android phone at home which will use i support that way cos if. i have my i'll choose the product that fits my needs but i'm not having anyone tell me what to do. and with an economic crisis gripping the country many turks on exactly in a position to buy a new phone many turks appear willing to take part in the boy called president out on this calling for ready to throw their american phones with the south korean model in this one but the problem is if you're on a minimum wage it would take you four months to paid off that might be a price too high for even the president's most loyal supporters. this deal was using the opportunity to promote turkish made front chairs and turkish phone maker vest electronic and surged after adam once called to boycott u.s. brands as someone we stand behind our country that's why we're recommending this phone. over the past few days anti-american protests have taken place across

turkey some demonstrators followed the president's call and changed their dollars into lira. i'm not going to say if. the u.s. president doesn't appear to know who he's dealing with he's facing the fielitz man the whole world knows his name. so you. will. but despite that patriotic sentiments it might be a while before the ready two pots with arrived phones and as mentioned before after suffering a dramatic descends the turkish lira has recovered slightly jumping as much as seven percent news that turkey's bank regulator is limiting the amount of lira local banks can swap for foreign currency is boosting banks will only be allowed to

exchange up to twenty five percent of their own equity foreign exchange slaps allow banks to secure rates the regulators measure comes after the turkish central banks announcement that it will provide banks with cash flow analysts however say turkey still needs to do more to stabilize its currency and economy. despite the recovery it is having an impact on the euro and it is one year low as it is following the story for us in frankfurt really good to see you again so how much of a problem is the turkish crisis for the eurozone considering the impact it's having on the euro. the euro coming down through a one year low below a dollar fourteen is not really a problem for the euro zone in fact it's a help for the exports for example and that makes them more attractive in many markets so that's actually quite a welcome thing that some investors are taking the turkish crisis and

a possible banking escalation situation here in the euro zone with big banks having a lot of money lent in turkey as an excuse to go into the dollar and that's weakening the euro but the euro is only going to be a problem if it moves down much further towards parity to the dollar then you might have questions of confidence in the euro zone coming up. having said that there are individual investors who are hard hit i just noticed in a wire service that an e.t.f. an exchange traded fund on turkish shares have in the last five weeks so individual people in the market individual investors are hard hit by the situation already only looking at the headlines deutsche bank here and there again but not for the reasons you might think. that's right the share has dropped under ten euros and. today the notice came the wire card not exactly

a household name anywhere including here in germany is worth more in market capitalization than the deutsche bank at one point already today the share of wire card was that is such that it was worth twenty one point three billion euros in the deutsche bank on the twenty one billion euros that goes to show the downturn of the deutsche bank but also why are cards ascendency as a specialist in electronic payment processing and why are card now a candidate for the dax perhaps replacing comments about number two in germany's banking sector and see if there's new names out there thank you very much for something strange. watching the double news live from berlin and more coming at the top of the hour to send us.
