them. the crew made it out safely we also have a very real challenge at the moment with a couple of also lighter communities where we've got reports of of injuries and burn injuries to members of the public we have been out to get access via roads all of our aircraft it's been socked in altered our interests and we simply can't access nor can the people in those areas get out. in some places the blazes assume intense that the thick smoke 10 day tonight. the fires are causing dry lightning storms that themselves are starting new fires. it's pretty scary that wall of fire that we saw earlier i don't know whether we'd be any use trying to save the house and you're always worried that it's more important save your family on that property itself. some people who've returned home have found there's not much left. first so you know it's. gone this

is the other you know. i'm on the roof trying to stop but. a stray has been battling huge bushfires for several months mostly and it's east coast but every state has battled blazes that have raised more than 40000 square kilometers of land stranding people and displacing wildlife. so is help getting through to stranded people right now under these conditions are still strained to journalist roger maynard in sydney good day to you roger what's the latest on the thousands of people trapped outside. on the beaches on this very difficult new year's day for australia. well most of the last till the moment that. the roads are closed because the fun so there's no a basically the same situation in the marshes of the south coast of new south wales to thousands of people remain in small bullet it resorts in tiny communities and on

the beach and instead of trying to try to find some temporary accommodation until they're rescued that might be sunday is away because the the roads are likely to remain close to some time and in the meantime the australian air force and the navy a try to get to these people on trial either to evacuate them by sea or to bring them out by helicopter but that is taking some time to organize and it may well be that these people have to stay there until saturday if they can't get out of all are ok you mentioned the australian norm terry roger are they going to be playing a major role now what are they going to be doing to help alleviate the situation in the country. well 2 this was departed in the past few hours one from sydney and one from jervis plane which is south of sydney they're heading down towards the north you selflessly tour the border so that they can closely evacuate these people at miller cooter there was

a taking supplies his book supplies it very very important at the moment because of these people are running short of food and water and the only way to get north lot food and supplies in is not up by sea so the of the the the the nigger playing an important role and also the other the efforts of playing an important role to with 2 or 3 helicopters being sent from new south wales and queensland to you know to bring in these extra supplies and if necessary take people out particularly those people who have been injured or who are suffering from burns ok briefly if you could roger is this unprecedented has the north terry ever been used in australia on a scale to evacuate people well to the us the military is always standing by in the case of a crisis like this in floods and fires and no manner and cycle and all manner of situations in the military is standing by ready to help so it's not unprecedented

but. it's very good they're also playing better important role particularly in this case in this particular crisis it's just bush leon president and you know it's becoming almost a humanitarian disaster roger maynard for us in sydney roger thanks very much thank you. let's get your bridge down some of the other stories making the news this hour in hong kong tens of thousands of demonstrators have taken to the streets for a peaceful new year's day anti-government march now this follows a violent clashes between protesters and riot police on new year's eve the pro-democracy protests began in june of 2019 in response to a controversial extradition bill it has since been withdrawn. north korean leader kim jong un says the world will soon see what he calls a new strategic weapon he said his country is no longer bound by

a moratorium on nuclear and missile missile testing but he left the door open to further talks with the us. where u.s. president donald trump is accusing iran of orchestrating tuesday's attack on the u.s. embassy compound in the iraqi capital baghdad dozens of protesters and iraqi shia militia men broke into that compound in response to recent u.s. airstrikes that targeted and iranian backed iraqi militia washington says all u.s. personnel at the embassy are now safe and that it will deploy $750.00 new troops to iraq. the hezbollah brigade supporters crossed the river tigris in the morning and marched toward the u.s. embassy to demonstrate. their protests began after a funeral service for fighters killed in u.s. airstrikes on sunday. the militia officers had previously killed a u.s. citizen. the demonstrators broke through the embassies external security barriers

and made it as far as the last security wall of the embassy building in baghdad among the demonstrators shiite clergy and a radical militia leader. the look on that even though this is the command center for the destructive operations it was from here that iraq's sovereignty was violated all of the thing was the demonstrators managed to force their way into the compound in the afternoon they remained there until security personnel deployed tear gas to disperse them. washington says it's confident it knows who's backing the shiite militia as president donald trump tweeted earlier. iran is orchestrating an attack on the u.s. embassy in iraq they will be held fully responsible. it was only after several hours that iraqi security forces arrived to protect the embassy grounds. do you

ever use always under phenomenon is in washington d.c. and has this look at how the new violence inside iraq could affect the u.s. iraqi relationship i think that it's fair to say that the strikes conducted by the last sunday against iran in a malicious have resulted in a serious political crisis for the united states in iraq iraq government condemned those airstrikes and iraq's national security council even threatened to rethink its relationship with the yass led coalition and now the attack on the u.s. embassy in the house will be protected green zone so we have to assume that the protestants must have had at least tacit permission from the iraqi security officials so we are dealing here with the serious political crisis that cost the potential of still king and american is in the country and handing and then teach to iran and its competition for more influence in iraq. and therefore

us whilst parts now where a woman or a girl riding a bicycle can be a rare sight and is often met with anger or aggression by men deeming it immodest or unseemly but a cycling club uncrossing is trying to change attitudes one of w.'s top reports from the past year we take a spin around with a lorry girls cafes cyclists. getting to grips with the flu. every sunday morning very much joins her friends and her local cycling would be living in this is that the new and sometimes being expedient. a little bit initially i tracked this bike along with my feet then i slowly learned how to control it i love the fact i can right now. i wish i could cycle every day with my friends as it makes me feel really good well

that. it's quite rare to see the men on bicycles in pakistan and many think it is and they have to straddle a sea but these attitudes are also part of patriarchal culture. society doesn't feel right about girls sorting out the streets it doesn't usually happen here but it's common to rule. it doesn't feel right but it's ok they're only riding around locally. what can we say those parents who allow their daughters to ride on bus school should be joyce around to which all. women socializing in public is still viewed as a threat to public morality it is to come to d.s. norms that a group of women said to believe. they're also organized by. bandar

no wonder no one wanted but at the start we were harassed and some boys even tried to kick us off our bikes and it was tough but we won't stop our cycle and it's our mission to empower these girls and introduce them to sports which is also very important. the girls live here in not only a poor and conservative neighborhood of karachi but one that has been marred by avoidance 1 for decades things are better now although the streets are still dangerous in some parts especially for women so the sight of them exercising in public has caused quite a stir. but don't you do you guys are slowly changing them a speed and were reluctant to allow her to join the cycling club at 1st but soon changed their mind. telling my family and my in-laws both said that it's not a good thing and i should just stop her it's a problem in our society that if

a girl goes out in public for anything say for work or even cycling people talk bad about her but my husband and i think differently so what if she's a girl she should go out and also progress. well moment was a real mean say out when the cycling club began a year ago this started with only. now do you know where the members and all are determined to keep begging their big words of fear and more equal future in pakistan. we have some sports news now and good to joe day start the world this year by running the 1st marathon distance under 2 hours now his performances focused attention on this new running shoe that is now under investigation biased latics authorities to talk to some experts about the show and even to run. the secret to the success of the shoe nike market says vapor fly lies in the soul the technology appears to help when his breakthrough previously

insurmountable batteries. chill day wore them in october when he made marathon history that he is the man to run under 2 hours now that inspire him at many people to tell people no human is limited in the same type of shoe and a day later bring it cost car brought the women's world record jeffrey come wore a previously run a world's best in the half marathon critics say the high tech shoes make too much of a difference for all 3 the governing body of world athletics has launched an investigation it's not rocket science but the you notice that really. fast. the lot of them alone enormous that is an amorphous group but the person although this is a man. beyond gustafson sees it differently the sports scientist an expert in motion analysis has been testing running shoes for 20 years the nike vapor fly he says is again changer. but it was.

above all the difference is this carbon plate which runs through the saw here to take the roll back more from the point of the big toe joint under the front toe area. and then again a distance of 2 centimeters. that means a shoe helps lengthen every stride by the length of the big toe for minute stuff when i was so if you assume that could choke it takes 21000 steps with this effect he gains 420 meters in distance understands does the vapor fly work for every runner d.w. reporter peter viles is an active marathon runner and attempted a 20 kilometer test but he weighs 25 kilograms more than keep and says he's running technique is different to professionals on the test run his feet in tendon started to 30 early on after 10 kilometers he had to give up because he can't even drive

you can see doing 345 kilometer runs with this you but i recommend that amateurs who want to do a marathon train sufficiently. and explicitly train with the shooter prepare. because the sure fex the legs calf muscles very differently and. if you want to keep up even as an amateur you may need to really learn how to run nike's competitors are announcing models similar to the vapor fly the big money athletic apparel firms are betting that the rule makers of track and for. will side with them and allow the new shoe technology. now to a rare scene at the same peter's square where a woman who made it through pope francis is entourage also seen a lead to a papal slap and a rebuke francis has been shaking hands of people a crowd was starting to leave when a woman suddenly yanked him from behind the abrupt physicality appeared to cause

the 84 year old pope some some pain he slapped her hand away gave her a quick stalling before moving on visibly upset about it within moments the pope was back to wishing people happy. this did everything is live from berlin stay tuned for german chancellor on ackles of new year's address have a great start to. even . begin. if. you have to physically then. begin months ago in unsponsored you know not to yob you have been going then the. then
