a little girl with i was born in berlin, starts july 22nd on d w. ah ah. does the state up when you news, lying from berlin? world leaders gather for climate talks in the german capital as europe's welters, an a record heat wave, while fires burn across the mediterranean and hundreds die in the extreme heat.

also on the program follow to me as a landscape suspends ukraine's chief prosecutor and his head of state security. as hundreds are investigated for allegedly helping russia and the damning report. find systemic failures, preventive police and taxes from stopping. one of the world school shootings in us history bust. a nationwide state of emergency comes into force ins for a long cup. the acting president says it's essential to maintain order and safe guard, vital supplies. ah, unequal for life to our viewers on p b. s. in the united states and all around the world, welcome from southern spain to northern britain, europe is sweltering in an extreme heat wave, the temperatures and high winds stoking massive wildfires across several countries

. and scientists say these extraordinary events highlight the already very real consequences of global warming. blazes have destroyed property and vast stretches of forest and france, spain and portugal, italy and greece. hundreds of people have died in the record breaking heat and forecasters worn. there is little prospect of any respite. the u. k is not known for hot weather, but this week is proving exceptional, huge crowds or heading to the beaches despite travel networks. also feeling the heat. in britain average temperatures in july, or in the 20 se, anything approaching 30 counts as a heat wave with the mercury. now nearing 40 and extreme heat warning is in place even for the north of england. for costa say on tuesday, the u. k. all time record of 38.7 could be surpassed.

to be honest as a mutual, just to see the brutality of the heat that we're expecting tomorrow is quite astounding. and it does worry me a lot of my colleagues here in the metal fish that they sort of president. it could be a regular occurrence oriented, britons are not used to extreme heat. so officials are advising the public to take sensible precautions outdoors, in particular, take measures to be hydrated, stay in the shade, you know, do all the things that you would think are all the sort of things you might do on a very hot day on holiday overseas health experts are reminding people that extreme heat can be dangerous. we have about bounds where we might not see very much good weather and we want to enjoy it. but we're talking about temperatures that we've not experienced in this country if ever, never mind for a long time. our bodies are houses or culture a we're fife, it's just not gear doc for it. train operators have lowered speed limits,

fearing the heat could walk rails with it, and that's disrupting services. for them to leads to day after day robin looks like i might not get back to to, to day because of the heat. and i won't get back to model new trends tomorrow, while some are preparing for the worst. i'm choosing to say, i'm because i don't want to get public transport because it's great going to work. acorns on putting you've still got to get home, but others are taking the heat in their stride. is this doesn't get excited about it. if it breaks it ain't the weather is it didn't know what else to talk about. do a really well earlier i spoke with meteorologists scott duncan and asked him why these temperature records are being broken all over europe. so it's

a particular severe heat wave that's been kind of brewing over spain and portugal and also north west africa or last few days, really. and it's been hot there for ashley quire a while even through me, and it's been drying out the ground. we've been intense, find the heat over iberia, and then the perfect weather set up is there just to then start listing that north through places like france. and in the case we're just starting to see just how hot this area masses as it lists north. so basically we've got an extreme weather event, but given the long term warming of our planet, this sort of thing is just easier to break records. now the, our planet isn't deep, warmer and let's talk about the role climate change plays in all of this. how. how is this be exacerbated by a planet that is becoming warmer and warmer shot? well, it maybe says more simple. if you just think that the planet warming or hall sources, places like north africa, even through spain, portugal in france, there warmer the sea surface temperatures are also very warm across mediterranean.

and when we start to lift those air masses north, across europe, then they're more likely to be on the halter side of what was considered normal in the past, for example. so it's just easier to then exceed these extreme threshold. so as a planet warms, not just in europe across the world, higher temperatures are just more likely to fall. how worrying are these extreme weather events? well we're, we're seeing more and more of them so that the combination of seeing these extreme heat thresholds not just being broken, but sometimes completely obliterated by quite large margins. we saw that in canada last year, we've seen japan, but he records this year, no western europe say under the bull's eyes, we go through today and tomorrow. so obviously it's very concerned to see these temperatures, not just here in western europe or across the world and is kind of just bringing to light was kind of possible. and once we get the extreme weather pattern, just to show us who are new claim it is late than we, we do really start see the impact on society. let's talk about the wildfires most

of course, also something that people are all over iraq are very worried about at this point. are we likely to see more of those and could they also spread north as the heat has done? so actually that was one most important things, but this heat wave is it's been very hot and dry for very long time. even like early is may we start see very strong, enormous heat building. mediterranean from been super dry portugal spain as well. so that's actually helped intense by the heat in this he wave and basically made it effortless for the heat transfer its way north as well. so when the visitation is dry, it can drive well, it drives though, and it can burn faster and harder when it does catch fire. obviously it's not the heat, there's triggering the fire itself. but when you do gave mission, fires can just ramp up and then blaze a lot faster and stronger than they did, perhaps in a cooler claimant where you've got it, we're precepts to holding in the surface. so these extreme temperatures are kind of manifesting. so and enhancing the fire risks. so even in places like the u. k,

you mentioned further north, we are seeing some while far as we had the actually early last week we had some truck saved fires with some buyers as far as north yorkshire. and while fires are not completely unheard of in our part of the world, but to get them on the scale of what we're seeing, the mediterranean is also something that we're not accustomed to. and i'm sure with the speed restrictions on public transport cautions for taking. we could have bigger issues, but yet further north again, wildfires is is no unheard of, but that is something that could be increasing with a warming planet. whereas scott, duncan meteorologist and lenin, thank you so much for those insights therapy wave has brought added urgency to international climate talks currently taking place here in berlin. un secretary general, antonio guiterres is urging rich countries to keep their promises to help poor nations deal with global warming and its consequences. they are here to build trust, the foreign ministers of germany and egypt. the 2 countries are co hosting,

the 2 day climate conference to prepare for the next big un climate summit. in november, germany's alina pierre book says, countries need to redouble their efforts to hit climate targets. dick lee marquez a mats and the climate crisis does not stop at any border. and the climate crisis is now the biggest security threat to all people on this earth. this being bad and here so we will only be able to tackle it together. he came back his them up because the climate crisis does not stop at any border. the response to it must not either. we must intensify our joint efforts. intensive young officials from 40 countries gathered for the summit to disgusting, focused on fighting the increasing impact of climate change. addressing the conference in a video message, united nations secretary general antonio gutierrez, urged rich nations to keep their pledges to supply funds to countries hardest hit

by the climate crisis. excellencies. this has to be the record of the sizes, claim, affection. that means trust multilateralism and collaboration. we have a choice collective action on collective suicide. it is in our homes, hope so high that the conference will lay the groundwork for a successful un climate conference in egypt. this fall. leaders of germany in egypt are co hosting the event and gave a joint news conference and our political correspondent nina has or was there? well, they covered lots of ground, obviously, but the egyptian president is here also to attend those climates summit preparation talks. and of course, both countries of talked a lot about the implications of russia's war on ukraine, on their respective countries. now egypt is feeling rising food prices extremely heavily. it's used to import lots of it's weed from ukraine. that's no longer there . and germany sees egypt as one of the partners with whom it can potentially and

diversify its energy supply. so egypt to day again stressed that it would be willing to deliver gas to germany. and we're hearing that both countries are working on that very intensively. and that, that might happen very soon or russia's monopoly energy supply or gas from, says ad may not be able to guarantee gas applies to parts of europe. the reuters news agency reports gas from may be unable to fulfill its supply obligations through the north stream. one pipeline, the save control giant is blaming quote, extra ordinary circumstances. gas from has already reduced deliveries to germany. german politicians dismiss rushes, the explanations as a political gambit. and we highly critique in is an oil and gas industry, analysts, and consultant. earlier we asked him for his assessment of gas from statement when

i am trying to analyze the reasons for this announcement by gas bro, i see there are no technical, no commercial and no transportation problem. so this company is the pipelines to exist. gasper um, can us no stream the pipeline across bill or we'll send all them and the pipelines across the ukraine to deliver as much gas as europe needs. because of the reserves of gas in the resar aren't quite satisfactory inside stores well to satisfy all the consumers in europe. and when i hear that guest room is a repair into some well force, missouri circumstances, i think the only reason might be orders from the president boynton. and this is a declaration of war. and guess war with me, her critique and an oil and gas industry consultant. now,

moving on to the latest on the war in ukraine. president goldman, we are the ones gaz, suspend that the chief prosecutor and the head of state security over allegations of treason. he says they failed to read out employees who collaborated with russian forces in occupied areas working again ukraine. $650.00 law enforcement officials are facing trees in charge. were still doing those to which we could put a washing of andy w correspondent mix spicer in cave, has more on the allegation. it's not quite clear at this point, how big is buying, scanned, or presidents lensky may be facing. however, the head of the security service, the s b u, even backend of suspended, is an old childhood friend. his campaign manager, when he was appointed many people said he wasn't really qualified for the job. however, that may be some 60 s b. u agents are suspected of collaborating with the russians in russian held ukraine. the other case concerning irina benedicts is

a little more surprising. she's ukraine's top prosecutor, the 1st woman to be appointed to the top law enforcement official job in this country. and she achieved national and international renown when she revealed that some 21000 investigations into possible war crimes in this country had been open since the russian invasion. president lensky has said that neither individual themselves can directly suspect that of wrong doing. but that the people working under them must be investigated in order to ensure ukraine's national security. and it's next fighter and key of an, as he also reports. now the war in ukraine. taking a huge psychological toll on the population that this is from a treatment center that help soldiers recover from trauma. one of the rifleman alexi ship jenko worked and construction before the russian invasion. within weeks he was on the front lines in the east, under constant massive artillery fire. he says he would fall to the ground for

a door slam or firecracker can trigger the terrifying feeling you are under fire again, alex, he is here for 3 weeks of psychotherapy group discussions, walks and massages. he says he'll abide by the doctor's decision about whether he should return to battle with going on with us over history. soldiers returning from war have described often feeling a sense of stigma from society, an inability to understand where they're going through and a rejection of what they're feeling. but that's not all the case here in ukraine, according to the director of this institute. only he had on we believe in victory in the power strength and experience of our soldiers. every loss will be in the heart of every ukrainian nozzles. i think that helps them if coronel, cuz the beliefs that we are here yet than william standing behind them. as soon as there are people who respect them immensely and are proud of them as
