a collection of twenty million items including egyptian and greco-roman artifacts and the oldest human skull found in the western hemisphere the museum's director has called it a cultural tragedy. statues blackened by smoke as their museum is consumed by flames centuries of history destroyed in just a few hours as a fire engulfed the national museum of brazil as firefighters fought a losing battle dozens looked on in disbelief. each week on education with different groups from around the world. it's a huge loss. and without words. i don't know what to say. i'm sorry. authorities say it's unclear what caused the fire but it is clear that most of what was housed in the museum has been damaged or

destroyed. only a day before these artifacts were on display ancient works from egypt and greece and more than two centuries of brazilian history the museum had long suffered from underfunding that some say put the building at risk of fire. fire fighters with the help of museum workers have so far been able to rescue a few works and in the next days perhaps more will be found among the ruins. artless bring in now matt sandy who is a journalist based in rio de janeiro met do we know anything about the cause of this fire. well obviously it's still very early days the fire happened last night. and they spent most of the night with out just sort of taking stock really this morning this afternoon we just got in the first suggestions of what might call it at the suggestion of an electrical poles suggestion or maybe even

a mini whatever land on the roof but these are there in the show. obviously the significance of all the notion is there. cannot be understated it was not only to say the home to twenty million exhibits you know it's a natural history science and the whole ship. it was also quite literally the imperial palace of brazil many years ago where the still the direction of the president's son and we understand it there and been protests in front of what is left of the museum tell us about that. well he said of course not yet. but there's a lot of people here who said very much that a lot of care a lot made a lot of sense there budget government budget is a lot to do with because there's a there's a graphic going around them socially quite how much the budget the simple my that's what's come out of this museum and the context is obviously it's not it's millions

if not billions being spent on big infrastructure projects for the world cup for the olympics including in cedar brown you can see it in the park city because many many millions. perhaps and not those glory perhaps not it was money for destruction whereas maintaining this old build although one building on exhibit seemed to have fallen for my vision. all right matt sandy reporting tonight from rio de janeiro matt thank you you thank. well accords in myanmar his sentence to international journalist to seven years in prison they were convicted for possession of classified documents and breaching the country's official secrets act because they investigated the alleged massacre. muslims by the military the reporters deny the charges they say they were framed by the police. the next seven years in jail for breaching mammals
