against the activities of chinese traders in the area this comes after weeks of rallies against hong kong's policies seem to favor china's central government. a gritty it has struck a ukrainian t.v. stations building in kiev there were no immediate reports of injuries police are investigating the incident as an act of terrorism the t.v. station had plans to air a controversial documentary featuring russian president vladimir putin and critics as to favorable to moscow. to the u.s. now where new orleans is bracing for to wrencher rains as tropical storm barry moves ashore as a class one hurricane water levels are already high at the city's levees and weather forecasters say the slow moving storm is likely to dump water than otherwise authorities are warning of potentially deadly flooding across the gulf coast around $50000.00 power.

joining me now from new orleans is dede obvious correspondent helen humphrey and you know what is the latest situation where you are. i'm rita as you can see the winds are really starting to pick a new orleans as the city braces for the landfall of tropical storm barry eye when it hits it's expected to be a category one hurricane currently wins all raging at around 150 kilometers per hour but the real concern is that the rainfall and i should say that the mississippi river that you can see behind me right now is abnormally high you for this time of the year we're expecting up to haul me to all the rainfall this weekend alone and that would be a record not seen in decades and. the president has declared a state all the emergency for the entire state of louisiana so i don't know how have people there been preparing for the onslaught of hi rick and barry.

adequate measures this time. a lot of people have simply been taking matters into their own hands leaving the city if they have the opportunity they know the drills they also know how to hunker down when a hurricane hits i think the criticism if there has been any to come in more is down to the response to the post 14 years since katrina in $2514000000000.00 u.s. dollars has been invested in flood defenses those flood defenses all still not finished . in new orleans thank you very much for that update there. in gothic fun a joint drug and european team has just launched a mega telescope into outer space it's called interest the to and it's being hailed as the worthless advanced extreme telescope is it only being data back to earth or 70 as it can record matter both visible and invisible to the human eye one of its
