this is dave every news live from. a british prime minister. to persuade european union leaders to delay it until the summer but a new leaders are saying the british parliament must approve think withdrawal agreement before any complete agree on the program new zealand's prime minister says the panel several traffic weapons after the christ church mosque shootings only top security personnel including those not guarding boss will be allowed such as in the future. and rescuing people from the floods in mozambique

a week after. this struck south east africa tens of thousands are still without food all shelter. is on the way. i'm phil gramm welcome to the program you leaders are meeting in brussels for a summit at which they're expected to agree to postpone it britain is currently shut you have to leave the european union next friday but prime minister theresa may is asking for more time for a fresh attempt to get parliament to back a withdrawal dale any decision today is likely to come with strings attached. saying that the reason has to get a fractured agreement through the british parliament first of all there can be no extension. straight to brussels that we join correspondent and. not as welcome

what's the mood like that. i'd say the brakes of fatigue has pretty much reached its peak here in brussels. the state leaders who have been arriving here are still willing are still committed to a reaching an orderly brax it but they are at stake basically run out of answers on on what they could suggest what what could be offered to the u.k. that would be acceptable if worked for two years on a deal that deal has failed twice everyone is pretty certain that it will probably fail a third time and so a lot of question marks here in brussels it's one thousand and one nights since that bracks it referendum but britain voted out as theresa may reiterated here today and some are here wondering maybe she'll need a magic lamp to wrap it until she gets that deal through let's listen to the german chancellor in the pool and just talk this morning before she left for brussels outlining her position on this issue it's been the obvious what of and what is my

firm conviction that we need to have a structured withdrawal of britain from the e.u. it's not just in the interest of britain itself which of course many that believe as well but it's also very much in the interest of germany and the interest of the twenty seven other member states of the e.u. . and it's been about what does and i believe the key problem that has to do with the whole question of ireland let's end the system to not make the land far go. back to brussels and. the other european leaders that share the chancellor's view. acts of for northern ireland there's no question that the e.u. won stability for northern ireland in case they want a safety net if you want in case the u.k. and the you could not reach a far reaching to free trade deal that would solve problems for northern ireland so

they want stability for that part but the sticking point that's right now up up in the air is basically that question how long the extension for that reason may seeks will last for the e.u. it's only possible until the end of may or the twentieth of may ideally before the european elections because if it was run into the european elections the u.k. from the european institutions perspective would be obliged to participate in the european elections something that tourism a has has ruled out and so the whole question today will be will they get that extension and how long will that extension be britain's opposition leader jeremy corbett was in brussels of a what say. that's a good question and he's been here a third time now obviously seek some answers as well but many here in brussels feel they're disappointed in theresa may she hasn't delivered on the bracks a deal that they've been negotiating with but also equally some here have said

jeremy court hasn't provided what an opposition in a democracy should do a real alternative and even though that he is in favor of getting a deal he's even wants more than theresa may he wants to stay in the customs union he is not willing to sign that deal that brussels and the u.k. work so hard on matters in brussels thank you. to london where we joined a. big. welcome back and let's start with jeremy corbyn does he have any backing in parliament for his alternative plan as he outlined it for people. well the crunch time is going to be next week here in london because it's really expected that m.p.'s and the such also jeremy covens labor party the biggest opposition party will somehow take control of the bricks and process so if there is a male to resign mayor doesn't kowtow to deal through in parliament then it's

expected that m.p.'s will try themselves to forge some sort of consensus and that is very likely to be jeremy corbin's centered around jeremy corbin's vision of a customs union like i said so he is not himself a very strong leader and has really been criticised here in london for not setting out his position clearly enough but next week there is a real chance that m.p.'s and jeremy covens party will play a much bigger role and then last night the prime minister used the national television address to give fellow paula the time to go out and i did it well thought m.p.'s now more willing to do is that told. those reason may in her address try to position herself as the voice of the people versus parliament who she put traders trying to obstruct the process and that made m.p.'s incredibly angry one labor opposition m.p.

said it was an attack on liberal democracy itself another opposition m.p. said we have been facing death threats over breaks it and if something happens to any of us she will have to share. she will have to bear her share of the blame i've spoken to dominic grieve who describes himself as a friend of three's i'm a conservative m.p. he said he could have wept yesterday when series i'm a made a speech in downing street he also said actually everybody i speak to this morning have said that your reason may really hasn't done herself a favor and that after this speech is less likely to get out here in the parliament to london. what sort of future just theresa may have nobody seems to want her as prime minister but nobody wants to actually do her job. yes who would want to do that job where the country is so devoid and really so at odds with each other but you know it's only eight days until it breaks it and really the

country is an absolute chaos say even though there isn't a procedure in place to succeed to reason may eighth really her deal does fall through if m.p.'s really take control of the process next week it's likely that she will have to go bots we don't know next week is going to be crunch time so watch this space i believe in an age of uncertainty back at mass in london thank you. we'll take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world a large explosion at a chemical plant in china has killed at least six people injured dozens happened mid afternoon at a pesticide plant in the eastern province of john so it's the latest in a series of industrial accidents to hit the country. but as welland forces have reported to have arrested the chief of staff of opposition leader one quite of robert murat was taken during a raid on he's a home in caracas according to mr white house of the united states and other countries recognize one quite as interim president and have warned venezuela's

government not to arrest him or any of his aides. the main suspect in monday's tranche in the city of traffic is to be charged with terrorism three people died and at least five were injured in the attack prosecutors believe the thirty seven year old suspect acted alone but they say the investigation is continuing. at least five people have died and more than twenty have been injured in a series of blasts in the afghan capital kabul the explosions happened near a shiite shrine as people gathered to mark the persian you hear the police say the bombs were detonated remotely. the rescue workers in mozambique of widen the search for survivors of a powerful cycling that ripped through southern africa a week ago causing devastating floods turning mozambique's worst hit area bera into an inland sea more than two hundred people have been confirmed dead and seven thousand more more need to be rescued such

a reference efforts have been hampered by broken infrastructure and more rain is expected in the coming days. i will join it we're joined now by rick day who is that global media manager from the ngo save the children in the pooter welcome to d w m bring us up to date on the rescue efforts if you would. yeah it's as you say the rescue efforts are on their way there's adequate there's some boats and the you know the sighting came on land in beirut which is one of the biggest cities in the in the area but it swept in lands taking water with it with heavy rains that means that there's also kind of a sea has developed in the land and there's no boat available ready so they have to be transported to there. there's people sitting on roofs those people sitting in trees that see these people sitting on one small islands in the middle of water and they will have to be either rescued or help has to be brought to them and that is

what makes the operation extremely hard and how aid organizations coping with the scale of this disaster. aid organizations are scaling up the scale of the aid as quickly as possible bear in mind there were heavy rains which made this distribution of any aid virtually impossible until one or two days ago so do the aid organizations are now going to say to children of course is really focusing on children a lot of children have lost their parents or have become separated from their parents we have received phone calls of parents that ask you know can we find that children in in beirut for example and the parents are not a part of the country. because they cannot get in touch with them they might still be alive they might have succumbed in the ways we don't know that but you know children on their own are extremely vulnerable for for abuse for violence maybe

they start working too to make a living which is child labor we don't want that so we are really focusing on children to get them to safety as soon as possible so with with more rain forecast how long do you estimate before something like normal returns to mozambique. or even if the range stopped the normal will not return and aid you know in the coming days because the area that is affected is over is so far a vast and even if the water goes away the people that are lived there have nothing left they had houses they had thoughts they had been saved kitchen supplies everything they had is gone and so before their life would go back to normal that's going to take a long long time and so briefly one of the most urgent tasks that you need to achieve now. yeah well i only have one answer to that one word that's everything they need food they need shelter any took the lives of kitchen you know so they can soak it so they can cook they need clean water is it is in is in is and why demand

because you know everything is flooded that means that also clean water systems drainage have had throughout it which means that the water is contaminated. and that makes this. dangerous you know if if water is contaminated diseases can break out quite easily especially for children so if you say what is needed i say everything well we wish you well and thank you for your time rick save the children in mozambique thank you the across the border in zimbabwe the situation is just as it was also badly hit by a cyclonic day. during a flood victims and money money district the elderly man died when a mudslide crushed his home. i'm in pain my father in law had a painful death at the house collapsed because of the cycle of it's hard to accept

that he died that way and. sure we're fortunate that our mother survived. she was rescued alive. the official death toll from cyclon he died in the zimbabwe stands at around one hundred but hundreds more injured money money are missing feared dead people worry they won't have a body to bury with reports of corpses floating downstream into neighboring mozambique flash floods and landslides swept through this region leaving piles of rubble behind. desperate moments and a desperate situation for the two money money community in the eastern part of zimbabwe where this community was the hardest hit when cycle on the day swept through most of the and zimbabwe you see some of them have lost their entire belongings and they have nothing that they asked to auntie. and

nothing to do but wait. to move would all of this. mill and if they are whoa or my family we've affected because we are there to be cloned we have nothing to. even. ourselves it's not this disaster is how breaking my only consolation is that my family and i are alive. people. help is patchy roads and bridges that haven't been swept away are often still impassable helicopters are lifting of the critically injured when they come low cloud means they can only fly occasionally. patients with a dangerous from. being crushed by admired or storms or houses for the move again so many fractures broken limbs and doctors here say they're now seeing wombs turn

septic because it's taking so long to reach the injured for those bringing help it's a race against time. this is do the only news i live from but it still to come a rat race like no other my compost is resorting to voters to help sniff after unexpected dollars. ahead of that new zealand's prime minister just into our dan has announced that the government hopes to have a ban on semiautomatic and minute she's tall weapons in place by next month the move follows friday's shootings at two mosques in christ church which left fifty people dead. i was. one of the many vigils taking place across new zealand this week to her. as the country continues to come to terms with its worst mass shooting it's also taking radical

steps to prevent a tragedy like this from happening again. today i'm announcing that new zealand will be in all military style sumi order medic we fans we were banned or parts with the ability to convey seemingly automatic or any other type of firearm into a military style seamy automatic weapon the lone gunman who opened fire on worshipers at two mosques in christ church was armed with semiautomatic rifles he's believed to have modified them with high capacity magazines to make them fire faster from now on all of this along with assault rifles will be banned in new zealand owners of such weapons will have to turn them into the police always always want to do everything we can to ensure those people. get to bring the far ups to suranne surrendered to what's. possible and possible quickly new

zealanders in christchurch and across the country have largely welcomed the law change as a necessary step to keep their communities safe. i think it's a step on the right direction something must change spaced on the last experience i know some people could see this as a reaction. across reaction because of one person the consequence is what we've seen is this terrible and something must change hopefully nothing like the gun laws will stop it from happening again the to mosques will reopen their doors on friday when mass commemorations to mark a week on from the attack are due to take place. in the nearly twenty years since the end of civil conflict and of a command rouge cambodia is still littered with an estimated two million mines according to the un clearing them is expensive and potentially deadly now a nonprofit group is recruiting rats to sniff out the unexploded bombs. they may

look like vermin but these rodents are lifesavers the giant traps are searching for land mines in cambodia. millions are still buried across the country the legacy of decades of war. the rats have a powerful sense of smell and they have an ability to learn. here at rat boot camp where they are trained to detect explosives. rats can sense the slightest whiff of t.n.t. . and when they do they're given a treat. but it takes around one year before the rodents are ready. but he's good with their wives actually trained to smell. so they go straight to the target.

so that's you know says faster and cheaper you know so it's easy to move to carry. the rats go to work clearing this area of land mines ten of them at a time sniff out the explosives every half hour different rats take over so their concentration doesn't slip for humans one wrong step could mean death threats though are safe. dangerous for them you need to be more than. just down the road the rights of free this village of landmines but that's after four decades in which the mines killed more than sixty thousand people in the country thousands more were disfigured farmer was one of them.

our village lived in fear for many years wondering who might be next. five sons and worried constantly. now that the mines are gone we feel great relief. and the rats are fast this area would have taken people for days to clear with great danger but the rats did it in under an hour. in sports how germany's national football team played a friendly against serbia last night it was their first icing this year and they failed into a new look young team that coach him love x. three say. despite playing at home know they could only manage a drill. serbia struck first through a header from i tried frankfurt's look at you know which serbia took that one goal the into the break germany without the x. thomas moore ledger on board taking and match how most took their time to respond but they couldn't get the ball past serbian keeper marco to meet your bitch. but

leon gorecki managed to find an opening in level to school. the mountain and that you saw what we were all about from our performance in the first off we spent too much time in areas that didn't bring us much we talked about that at half time and did things better in the second half when i thought i guess we're going to know when it's not enough of us are going to think of them and i thought we have to make sure that we perform you saw that today but with the chances we had in the second half we have to win the game that's what not set out in the street is given credit for that there was drama in injury time as serbia's milan pav koff was sent off for a bad foul on lee roy sonny luckly side may set the foul looked worse than it was and is expected to be ok the one one finish isn't the best two enough for germany to kick off their twenty twenty euro qualification against the netherlands on sunday. and today is world a down syndrome day one child in every thousand across the world is born with

a genetic condition means that millions have it and they're increasingly being integrated into their communities so here's an example from a café de to visit in the iranian capital to. this completely in his element serving couple chinos to the guests in this cafe waiting tables assist first ever job and the forty year old is loving every second of it. you know i like the cafe it's big and it's nice. that's why i'm so grateful to the owner. that every night when i go to bed i thank . him for all. he and the others who work here have little chance of finding work elsewhere iran's job market is currently in such a bad state that over a third of college educated young iranians are unemployed for people with special needs it's become nearly impossible to find work.

for most of those people there's nothing to do once they finish school they just stay at home but we're convinced it's good for them to show people that they have other abilities not just good for them it's also good for their families they're often sad because they can't do anything but here they can show just what they're capable of. more than forty people living with down syndrome autism work here regularity everybody pitches in doing what they can brewing coffee waiting tables or entertaining the guests with music. they all get paid for their work except for the cafe owner he she runs a deficit every month there are very few government programs to support social projects like this one in the islamic republic. we've never received support from

any kind of organization it's a completely independent project founded and finance privately or totally self dependent. giving up is not an option because every day she sees just how much this work means to him ron and the others. i used to just be with my father. but father look at me. i finally made it. i'm famous and go through life with my head high c. . with their positive attitude imran and his colleagues have created an atmosphere found nowhere else in the islamic republic.

no other can feel he a neuron could get away with this level of. imran and the others are making the best out being a little bit different and have to inform coffee down tizen into a place that's bursting with positivity. thousands of people in los angeles took to social media after spotting a fast moving streak of light over the city of course everyone wants to know is it a bird is it a plane or something else a mysterious object passed over downtown turned out to be a pair of flying together. one of them with spock attached to his legs they deployed parachutes safely between skyscrapers the police later confirmed did not hit the city of angels and the city was not being invaded by aliens it was just another. coming up next in d.w.
