supplies texas residents are still dealing with the consequences of the storm many people have been left homeless due to damage from the extreme weather others spent days without power or water and let's bring in do the deed of you correspondent who is standing by live for us in houston carolina it doesn't look too cold right now where you are does this mean the worst is over for texas. not really and they don't let this sunshine deceive you the crisis and is now different if this was a power crisis as you as you said due to the winter storm but now we are experiencing a water and food crisis here in the state of. tech says and we have been seeing that there are mass distribution centers of water add of food because there's no drinking water and in some families there's not even water at all and as you know at this can turn to a very very and actually situation for

a lot of families special for the ones who are living in the suburbs and now the food banks are also struggling with this increasing demand for food because let's not forget we're in the middle of the pandemic that means there already families who have lost their jobs they were forced to go to the food banks and now they have have been hit for the 2nd time this and freezing temperatures during the last days and now the water and food crisis here in the state of texas sounds like a situation from the president declared a state. how does that actually help people on the ground. well these. financial help make this means that they're going to get money for their home repairs also for the property losses and also low interest loans to in order to were repaired the losses they have especially the losses of property that for the people who don't have any insurance for that so this is the main

financial help but again this help is not really arriving to the suburbs and the minorities the group of the people who are hardest hit by this crisis because they're living in very old houses and most of them don't have water right now not at all and they don't even have food on the table so the help is arriving but only to certain areas at least here in houston and the suburbs. we are talking to some of the people of houston one of the most worried about. they are very worried about the costs of the damage they feel don't know what they have lost and this is going to be a surprise for them probably they're going to be hit in a financial way again and they are of course also worried that a winter storm might hit this state again because then they you know what last the last things they do they have right now so this would be

a huge problem for them but for now help is arriving at least from the city of houston to some of the families and as we so also from the federal government yes all right thank you for that carolyn achieve more reporting for us from houston texas. rafael grossi the head of the international atomic energy agency has arrived in tehran to try to resume international inspections of nuclear facilities which iran has been blocking the visit comes as the new u.s. president joe biden is promising to reverse many of the trumpet ministrations foreign policy decisions and one of the biggest came in 2018 when truck pulled the u.s. out of the international agreement with iran designed to prevent it from building nuclear weapons now biden wants the u.s. back in and the accord back on track here's a look at the deal. joe biden came to the white house promising to work more with

iran but he's pretty decisive but he says the u.s. will really and to the iran nuclear deal to don't trump we've drew from the agreement in 28. but that's only part of the mess the new administration has to clean up trump also placed tough sanctions on tehran. iran responded by increasing its enrichment of weapons grade uranium not by enough to actually build a bomb but the message it sent to the international community was alarming. and with biden now in the white house iran wants to restart negotiations with the u.s. and other security council states but to iran wants the economic sanctions lifted 1st turan says if the sanctions are not gone by tuesday they will suspend some nuclear inspections and international observers. but an administration says sanctions relief is not on the table. thank you and as you heard joe

biden is calling for careful diplomacy and the other security members search early council members and germany who brokered the deal also wanted to be resurrected but iran wants those sanctions lifted 1st we walk spoke with a total and a jag who was in iran expert here in berlin and asked him about who would make the 1st will well this is some of the major questions that we'll have to see. this is true i mean it's true that the iranians have sound the u.s. needs to you know be compliant again to the nuclear deal and after it was that washington left it. but as far as things stand we're going to probably i mean the most probably scenario would be a step by step process that is iran reversing some of its reductions of nuclear commitments that it has pursued. but after all iran is definitely

interested to eventual talks too with the united states because the sanctions that have been imposed during the trump administration have been truly crippling. and it seems that the blood and administration wants to use that bridge in order that the 1st of all to have a more robust nuclear deal that is to extend the sunset clauses. and eventually also pave the way to talk to to iran with some non-nuclear issues when it comes to iran's regional presence and that's because the program something to one is the nights to be willing to engage and so far time for sports now and in the bundesliga frankford have blown the title race wide open after beating league leaders by a new nick 2 to one the defeat is byron's 3rd of the season and comes after they were held to a drop by lowly our mini abilify held on monday. answer the pundits leaguers

are afraid of side effects and fake news is making the rounds. this is a moment to remember. colleague photographs care home barkha christina retreat gifts as she receives her 2nd dose of the biotech pfizer vaccine. for might see where i really hope to encourage my colleagues but also my family and even the country to come and get vaccinated. and like them. as vaccination drives in north in homes like this one in the french speaking part of belgium draw to a close many stuff still opting out. almost half of all care workers and private institutions alone in the region are hesitating even the director of this home is among the more. kids one of the side effects let's say in 20 years nobody knows today so it's a bit like buying

a car you feel like you could be safe but i want to see the crash test results really so personally i am a bit skeptical but for the older people clearly it's a good thing that could have access well put it to some. this caregiver is also one sure he prefers to wait because he's heard some rumors get. ahead yes some production it that could be used. who can be observed from the stand because of those production them that if you're not kind of a stock you know. and this is just the tip of the ice book false claims that the vaccine causes infertility or even death or spreading like wildfire across social media the french speaking part of belgium appears particularly receptive to these ideas. the head of nursing home federation fam about things making vaccinations

mandatory may be the only options i did not understand i do not understand that it was so for them there's so a lot of rate of every people who died there so the loss of life. and it's unbelievable orders people do not understand that they can protect themself it's a big question. move. back at the nursing home this local doctor is trying his utmost to demonstrate that vaccines are safe is this and that's why child the staff here you need to get vaccinated not 70 percent of you but 100 percent of you all of you in order to win this fight you repeatedly many of christina rodrigo's colleagues are also taking to social media to encourage others. she hopes each photo will make

a difference. in france as in other european countries universities are closed because of coronavirus students are suffering from mounting loneliness and one young woman from struggle can't take it anymore. since the beginning of the pandemic this room has become the center of heidi's supposed life it's where she studies attends online lectures and spends her free time watching movies a daily routine that has taken its toll on the 1000 year old. i lack any kind of enthusiasm i just feel hollow and i don't see any sense in life anymore i mean credibly nervous and cry for the slightest reason i am a lot more short term pert and have become a control freak regarding anything that i can actually still control i don't feel

like going for walks anymore it just costs too much energy with it although i'm normally quite a lively person listen to this most of us and you know me now i want to live. in her despair she published a letter to president on social media asking him to read open the university's she signed the letter heidi support zombie. i had been talking to a few friends about this how sick i was of the situation i had the impression that people had forgotten about us young no one understood what it's like for us even among students it was too boot to talk about it so i wanted to get through to the government but also to other students people in general. and she succeeded hundreds of other students contacted her to share their own similar stories across the country thousands of students took to the streets. president personally wrote back

to highly asking her to hold out then he announced new measures of support and the 2 young. students have the same needs as workers so they will also be allowed to come back to university for one day per week women are needed he did offer to put on. heidi is glad that her cry for help was heard but she remains realistic visuals that it's a start at least certain student s. stations can offer activities again as some students will come back in the long run though living a one day per week won't be enough and i know that the months to come will be very tough although at least we now feel a bit less invisible. the prospect of the past reopening has given her the energy to go for keisha walks again and help us see the future in a brighter light. minority groups in china
