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. hello, mikayla. 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 make it up. we spent the night in a nearby town, but we didn't sleep at all happen on look. and among them, you know, i didn't know that 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 voice, 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. d. w correspondent, nicoli 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 log. you can actually also the pictures online where you can see it from the beach. that's huge. smoke coming up, we're talking about roughly 3000 people that have been evacuated and 2000 and texas that are inflamed. but it's even more severe if you go to the west to extreme. but it has been a fire for days now and it's raging through landscape, but so far already burned around $7000.00 hector's. and that's just another fire,

just below that that has popped off for the southwest. that is also very frightening. hundreds of people have been evacuated firefighters and the emergency aids that are on fire yesterday just told me that they're really exhausted, but they're doing everything they can. but obviously with the wind and the very high temperatures. and that region, no matter where you're looking at around 46 degrees, i've been that on wednesday it's very impossible at the moment to really get your grip on these planes. yeah, it definitely sounds via but experts wanting that could be what days 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 last thing 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, 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 my tail for the fires, for the people, it might have a, well, we tried to set up a life just earlier with you guys thought 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 and you need to put, you know, your flat in the darkest place ever. you're sitting in the k basically during the day or where the 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. the green says russia is using the captured nuclear power plant to stall

weapons and hit targets. the national nuclear agency says hundreds of russian troops occupying the poles, your site in southeast, in ukraine, and accuses moscow of using the plant as a base to show the surrounding region. one of the alleged targets is the city of the negro government ledges. this video shows the russian strike regional government as 3 people were killed in recent days, dozens of people have died and attacks on urban areas are correspondent. next by saying keith told us more about the situation, others upper regional plant. well, it's europe's largest nuclear power plant, was 6 reactors inside the soldiers. some 500 soldiers had been there since to 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 pros, you said were some people have been killed as well as the town of nicki paul, which is just across the ginni 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 his 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 and 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 was just to continue shall and continue shelling and, and hitting civilian targets is hard to see what the military objective is. of course there 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. did of use and expires. thank you. thank

you. 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 president of the top by roger oxer, lawmakers will select a new leader to serve the rest of the access. then he fled into exile as mass protest. the raptor by the national economic crisis. prime minister o'neill with grimacing. it is acting as inter impressed lawmakers in not wants to don't yeah. pass the deal in settling the dispute with bulgaria to make way for you. membership talks. the proposal includes amending the constitution to recognizable gary and minority in exchange, while gary, i will allow sophia to start talks with brussels. the head of jimmy's biggest, actually has resigned to follow in protest after an exhibit with anti semitic elements from that for just document. jesse,

sabina schuman is there been down by mutual agreements, the sure takes place every 5 years in the city of castle. he was president, joe biden has wrapped up a visit to saudi arabia for a security and energy summit. biden told our leaders, america would maintain its commitment to the middle east, in talks with a saudi crown prince. he also raised the murder of the journalist, jamal shop g. i had to see the u. s. president meeting with gulf leaders in saudi arabia's capital. he laid out how he sees america's role in the middle east zone becoming clear to me and how closely are woven, america's interest, or with the successes. normally, we will not walk away and leave a vacuum refilled by china. russia ram will shift to bill on this moment, active principle, mercury leadership. it was

a clear message to gulf states who have gradually seen us disengagement from the region. notably the withdrawal from afghanistan, but biden also signalled washington remains a dominant player when it comes to the most pressing threats to global security. the war in ukraine time has growing influence and preventing iran from getting a nuclear weapon and saudi oil has been a driving factor with the u. s. looking to shore up it's supplies and bring prices down, especially if it can replace russian energy. but the summit was overshadowed by bite and criticizing saudi arabia's human rights record. in particular, the killing of journalists, demarco shoji the saudi foreign minister swiped back the conference, responded that to her this was a painful episode for sunray been that it was a terrible mistake. the idea that one can impose values on other countries are his

100 made clear. it does not work. it has not worked. when the u. s. tried to impose values on afghanistan and iraq, in fact, it backfired. biden wanted this trip to reset and repair long standing diplomatic relations as well as persuade gulf states to pump more oil and gas to the u. s. saudi arabia has agreed to a limited increased daily oil production. biden's trip can perhaps be seen as only a partial success. the w washington correspondent carolyn at shamore told me biden has not got much to show from his middle east trip. well, he definitely could have done more, and if we focus on his main concern and at that was increasing or talking to saudi arabia in order for them to increase the all production. and one can say that by it . and it's really not bringing anything as substantial back home the press release

from the white house, for example. they mentioned the opening of sardinia, a saudi aerospace to civilian aircraft, flying from into israel as a big success. yes. or the fact that saudi arabia agreed on doing everything possible at was the scene at the truth in yemen. but let's not forget that the main focus of fighting during this group was indeed the old protection from saudi arabia . and the high white house communique says, the united states has welcomed the increase in production level 50 percent above that. what was planned for july and august. and that these steps and are going to to, to, to better the situation and the crisis we are in right now. but the truth is that the organization of the petroleum exporting countries the up in a pic plus countries they agreed already last month to ramp up oil protection this summer. so prism and buy them in a way is coming back home without an immediate deliverable on oil production.

also biden raised concerns about the middle of jamal kashal g with the saudi crown prince. but up about it seemed to business as usual. could he have done more there he definitely could have done more, but that was not his focus on that is precisely what he said before he started this trip. he said he is going to focus on national interests. i'm u. s. interests the during this re a trip. and what we have been seeing here is as a big you turn in biden's foreign policy and a re calibration of his relationship to saudi arabia. but he has not a full on watts human rights organizations. a claim he should have done, like, for example, i'm not talking just not talking to the prince because he's been seeing as a murder for many of these organizations. he w correspondence, carl, you're not, you're more in washington, many things. and in football news by in munich,

i've agreed to allow strike out robert levant dusky to join barcelona by and accepted a spanish collapse latest proposal, a multi year deal with up to $50000000.00 euros by and previously insist that live in dusky, had to remain in munich until this contract is passed next summer. i wonder he said several weeks ago on social media that his time was over. up next. well, stories the week and reports remember, you can always get more news on our website. a d, w dot com. i'm eddie micah julia, i'm on use at the top of the hour do stage and they want to know what makes with love and banning them away from them. but i'm not even know how to work my own car and everyone with later.
