shows no sign of reason. scientist are blaming mon, meet climate change, and i wanting there will be more extreme weather events in the future. the summer skies are blotted out by smoke, as wild fires burn across southwest europe. in france, portugal and spain, high winds and dry conditions make tough work for the fire fighters. several of whom have died. battling the blazes. thousands of residents have been evacuated in all 3 countries. la mckayla, we haven't slept all night enough to have a social worker came to see me and pick up my elderly uncle. emily, i'm able to meet you. we spent the night in a nearby town, but we didn't sleep at all. i've been a long walk and i'm one of them. you know, i don't either even away from the fires, there's no relief from the heat. a wave of record breaking temperatures has killed hundreds and spain where thermometers have hit 45 degrees. to compound the

misery soaring energy prices mean many are forced to choose between keeping cool and their bank account. i thought i thought maybe at boys i all families have to be frugal when using air conditioners and electric fans because electricity bills have surged. we'll teach him on whether agencies say it won't cool off for days. authorities are urging people to drink plenty of water. stay out of the sun and to check on those at risk. did of you correspondent nicole rees in madrid, told me more about the fires in spain. well, we have a several of wildfires that are really huge. one of them is just 40 minutes away from my la guy. you can actually also their pictures online where you can see it from the beach. there's huge smoke coming up. we're talking about roughly 3000 people that have been evacuated and 2000 hector's that are in flames. but it's even more severe if you go to the west to expedite my laura. but it has been a fire for days now and it's raging through landscape. it has a so far,

already burned around $7000.00 hectares, and there's just another fire just below that that has popped up further in the south west. that is also very frightening. hundreds of people have been evacuated firefighters and the emergency aids that are on site yesterday just told me that they're really exhausted, but they're doing everything they can. what obviously with the wind and the very high temperatures in that region and extreme of where you're looking at around 46 degrees, i've been there on wednesday. it's very impossible at the moment to really get your grip on these planes. yeah, it definitely sounds severe, but experts are wanting, there could be what are these i had. so how are people trying to deal with it? well, this is the 2nd time this year that we having a heat wave and it's not in the normal range of heat waves. you know, the 1st one came very early in june. the 2nd one is lasting for already a week. it might cool off a bit at the beginning of next week,

but we're looking at maybe then here in madrid at 38 degrees instead of like at the moment in the shadow. it's around 40 degrees. so it's just just a little bit of pulling off, it might help for the fires, for the people, it might help us. well, we tried to set up a life just earlier with you guys, but it was not possible because of the heat. so we needed to switch locations, go into the shadow, and that's what everybody needs to do. you need to go into the saddle. you need to stay in, you need to, but you know, you're flat in the darkest place where you're sitting in a cave. basically during the day or where there's air conditioning, and the thing is summer's now, 5 to 6 weeks longer than they used to be in the eighty's and heat waves in the past 10 years have doubled also in length. so it's quite a struggle for the body. and now we have just also received some numbers that 360 deaths just in this current heat wave here in spain. so it's really taking a toll on the body and on the life of people, i really don't know how i would have dealt with that. the chorus,

thank you. green says russia is using a captured nuclear power plant to store weapons and hit targets. the national nuclear agency says hundreds of russian troops occupy and as up what easiest sites in south, east and ukraine, and accuses moscow of using the plans as a b to show the surrounding region. one of the alleged targets is the city of the negro. the government says this video shows a russian strike. the regional governor says 3 people were killed. thousands of people have died in the tax on areas. these entities are correspondent and expired . same key, told us more about the situation. a plant? well, it's europe's largest nuclear power plant, was 6 reactors inside of the soldier. some 500 soldiers had been there since close to the beginning of the war, which you are getting reports of heavy artillery shells shelling and possible

rocket attacks coming from the plant according to ukraine's director of atomic energy targeting. denise rose, you said were some people have been killed as well as the town of nicki paul, which is just across the genie pro river, where there is to bit damage to civilian buildings. there are pictures of that on the government's telegram channel, the local telegram channels. and look, i mean, this is a situation where you have an inability of ukrainians to repost to fire back, because they could set off a tr noble style meltdown a disaster that couldn't actually be dealt with in war time. so it's of grave concern, and that's why the director of ukraine's nuclear agency called on the international atomic energy agencies to get involved and to inspect the situation. but they won't do so while there are russian troops, there's to the ukrainian minister i've been talking about has says they have to stopped walking a tightrope and do something about the situation. yes. what's confusing? some people rush hour was focused on its efforts in these things ukraine,

but they have been reports of attacks across the country in recent days. what seems to be moscow's game plan? yeah. yeah, it's a big picture wise. moscow has been shelling an awful lot, 50000 shells a day, some days. but since the beginning of may, they've only taken 5 percent more territory. and they haven't been able to take parts of the don bass region, which they plan to with the speed with which they intended to simply because they don't have the manpower to do. so that's why they said they're going to have an operational pause. we know their units are, have been disbanded decimated, they've got to put groups of men back together and teach them to work together. so the answer as it were for that which is to continue, shall, and continue shelling and hitting civilian targets is hard to see what the military objective is. of course are military targets as well, but so many civilians being injured is in the words of united nations human rights people, you know, a war crime are possible work or you can't have that many civilian casualties in

a war. you're not targeting properly. yeah. date of use and expires. thank you. thank you. authorities in the west in ukrainian, a cd of the viv change in the building. colds to reflect the new reality of wall in the future. every new building will have a purpose built bomb shelter in anticipation of many more ration error rates. and missile strikes that have chief architect showed deed of use. i'm in a safe around to build and that's 7 as a model for future stretches. levine, tech city, on the outside, a normal office park inside workers are preparing this structure for war. the bomb shelter is located in the parking garage. levine, chief architect, explains which features make this shelter state of the art and why he wants every new building in the city to have the same like that. we, on the store, to the south of the waters. it's about basic thinks it's about the possibility you've been building or collapsed to stay and wait for the rescue. that's why we

need the prep water. it's sometimes called inside their parking, which is a bumping shelter the same time. so it's impossible in the february to spend here a few hours during minus 5 degrees celsius outside. that's why we need to separate that room with the heating, heating, fresh water food supplies, bathrooms, with toilets and showers for those upstairs in case of an attack. and all this handicap accessible, that's what levine new building codes call for. we are ready to report the next thing we should be ready for the next conflict with this kind of neighbor with a few years, maybe in 10 years. nobody know, a grim reality is being written into levine architecture that for the foreseeable future, ukraine will have to defend its right to exist. when construction started on this building about 2 years ago,

it was built to be one of the safest buildings in the country. with one of the most modern bomb shelters save from any tax from the sky and eventually of a war. but the architects didn't realize how soon their design would be put into practice. even as the work is completed, family is displaced from eastern ukraine, have taken up temporary residents here. that may lack the creature comforts of home . but this modern bomb shelter has what it takes to sustain life, a priority for a country at war. let's look at some more stories making headlines around the world so long as parliament has begun. choosing the success that to the deposed press event go to buy a low mucous will select a new leader to serve the rest of us access to he fled into exile as mass protest wrapped it over the national economic crisis. prime minister rodney with missing is

a matter of the distance journalist jamal casualty i asked d. w, washington. correspondents county. not sure what a biden could have pushed harder about the murder of jamal casualty. of course, he could have done more, definitely, yes, but that was not his main concern. president biden himself, he said before this trip started, that this trip is mainly about promoting you as interests, especially of course economic issues, but also on security. and what we're seeing here is a huge you turn into biden's foreign policy, and it's a real re calibration of his relationship to saudi arabia. so as we saw this morning during the gc see sam edward by them is trying to do here is to reset this relationship. he wants to see if the united states and saudi arabia can work together in different issues. like for example, energy, but also infrastructure and food, food security. and, and the question remains,

how do they start over again after bite. and one said that saudi arabia has a para estate and word that a go from here. i mean, we have an idea what the us one spot, what does the middle east expect from the us? all the countries in the middle east, they know as at the united states, especially interested in their all projection and also in their position or own international politics. so biden has made clear that he's also there, as you said, to strengthen relations with them. and in his own words, he doesn't want to leave a gap in international relations for russia or china to feel he wants to avoid a stronger ties between saudi arabia or the middle east and russia or china. but the truth is at that to region already maintains relations with these countries, russian and china and, and now they know what they are, the ones who can choose what they want to cooperate with saudi arabia wants to at present itself again as one of the most important partners for the u. s. m,

on an international level, and that has been their main message or from a visit. and by them is supporting this message with this historic visit and the pictures we saw. okay, the w correspondent, collier not shem, oregon washington, many banks. and for bo news by and munich, i've agreed to allow strike of robert le bon duff ski to joined barcelona. a bye and accepted the spanish clubs latest proposal, a multi year deal with up to 50 1000000 euros by and previously insisted upon dusty had to remain in munich until his contract expires. next summer. randasia said several weeks ago and so she needed that his time at bion was over with what secrets lie behind these will discover new adventures in 360 degree
