the 6 year old boy will not live to see this day anymore. the whole neighbourhood came to say good bye. oh, some of the little him he was the most precious thing in my life. it's all so incredibly sad. for my daughter, there's nothing left. she doesn't even have a home any more. might be, was the quiet boy. his grandmother says his home was directly across the street from the towns train station. the family was just getting ready for dinner. when russian rocket started to strike the neighbourhood. much me was playing in the living room when the selling started. and then he ran over to the kitchen where some other family members were. and that's when the rocketed and killed the little boy. immediately. russia claimed responsibility for the take. the military said it wanted to destroy a train that were supposedly carrying ukrainian soldiers, and they apparently considered the death of mcvee and many others as acceptable

collateral damage for their operation. it's the worst tragedy that has ever happened in the small town of trip lina, them may or tells us, but it brought the community to get her what you, that the parents of the dead children have gone through an incredible amount of stress. we know it's very hard for them to go on with life, but least we try everything possible to support them. the food, the vomiting, again, besides motley, an 11 year old boy from the same neighbourhood died in the year take. the war has already cost the lives of more than $1000.00 children. and the 2 boys from south lena, probably won't be the last ukraine's energy operator is warning. there's a risk of radioactive leaks at the saturation nuclear power station. the agency sess, repeated russian shelling house damage the plant moscow has accused ukraine or from bombarding the facility which it took over in march. the power station was at temporarily knocked off the great this week. crossing regional blackouts,

the u. n. z nuclear watch stalk is hoping to send in inspectors and energy analysts say russia is destroying natural gas stocks. they claim massive burn offs at a plant near the finish russian border waste $10000000.00 euros worth of fuel every day. finish, residents have reported seeing large flares and feeling much warmer conditions, facility, prepare russian gas for transport to germany, a valuable commodity, vanishing into sin air. while the rest of europe struggles with shortages of natural gas, russia seems to have too much of it. analysts have taken special interest in this russian gas terminal located in port to via bay near the finished russian border. the north $31.00 gas pipeline to germany starts and puerto via and and u. l. n g plant has been built at the site. satellite data collected by a norwegian energy consultancy suggests that the so called flaring of gases taking

place here at unusual levels. we observed that russia has been wearing ever since july 11th of mid july, which coincides with the maintenance that occurred or began on our ship one. but interestingly, flaring actually continued despite the operations being resumed. women worship one back in late july. russia has reduced gas exports to europe, leaving it with a large surplus of gas. that could be one explanation for the burn off. experts said at western sanctions could also be to blame. they say flaring might be a sign of russia lacking the proper equipment to operate. the facility bearing does come at a cost for both economically and environmentally. and there is a loss associated with wearing, obviously, because you're burning off those valuable products that could otherwise be sold. so

i would say flaring isn't, you know, it is only done if necessary. and that's why we've seen widespread, minimize glaring over the years. but i would say it's if, if russians doing this, it's possibly due to geo politics, but it could also very much be technical issues and possibly even safety issues from russian energy company. gas problem has not commented on the burning off of gas at the poor to buy a facility. the u has accused russia using gas is a weapon to fight back against sanctions. imposed over the war in ukraine. to angola where the party that has ruled the west african nation for nearly half a centuries, claiming victory and a closely fort election. officials say the m p l a 151 percent of the vote. the opposition are disputing the count, a low voter turnout and accusations of fraud, moth the pole d w. so adrian crease reports for the ongoing capital, wanda,

ah, it is a strong police present fear luanda with years of protests by the opposition riot. police can be seen at several places in town, trying to nip any form of protest in the body. several people were already arrested with the fact that we have the right to demonstrate, but we're not allowed to. that's clear what the school these are as people with. we are over the m lpa. we were born under them and grew up under them and they can still be empowered when we die. that's not fair. we need change to make the country democratic more. here is getting increasingly tense. the electoral commission published 97 percent of the results 24 hours after the vote spots up until now. there no final results without any explanation for the delay. critics of the government are saying that they're still very much under control of the electoral commission. and this is the reason why the

major opposition party, the biggest one, started their own vote count saying, according to their numbers, they have won. the opposition is now calling for an independent body to see why there's a difference in numbers of both different vote counting processes. and mexico is rocked by notorious human rights scandal. 43 students disappeared in the southern city of equality in 2014, according to official accounts. they were abducted by corrupt police and handed over to a gang to be met at. now a government official alleges that 6 of them were kept alive for days. a local army commander then ordered to their death. these protesters had been demanding answers about their missing relatives for years and of a long pushed back against the official story. the government investigation at the time concluded that the students were abducted by corrupt police and turned over to a drug gang that killed them at this rubbish dump before burning the bodies and

throwing the remains in a nearby river. the independent experts have repeatedly debunked this account. last week, a government truth commissioned confirm some of their worst suspicions, saying the army was aware, but in da thing to stop what happened to these men? now the commission's head has made an even more serious allegation that the army itself held and killed, at least some of them. i mean, to pursue mc allegedly, the sick students were alive for as many as 4 days after the events, and were taken and killed on orders of the colonel. allegedly, the van colonel, jose rodriguez perez, who several of the spanish. so many the revelation is a bombshell even made. i'm which at that he says that it makes me very sad, angry and helpless that so many years have passed and they've given us so little information. and what little information there was were lies. gavia was that on men

theda, but off to so much time the truth may finally be coming closer. last week, the former attorney general, who led the much criticised 1st investigation, was arrested. he faces charges that he committed abuses, including torture during his investigation. dozens more arrest warrants were also issued for soldiers. police and officials suspected of involvement in the case it watching dw news coming up next. sports life looks at what's behind the cereal. success of wonderfully good champions by munich for me and the team. a villain, thanks for watching old munich, 50 years ago the international gathering of piece.
