for 3 years that would change the world for ever. but julian's journey around the world, september 7th on d. w. ah ah. ah, visit dw, in use live from berlin. it's being called a climate catastrophe. weeks off, monsoon reins and flooding, and pakistan has killed more than a 1000 people and effect of millions. while the government blames global warming opposition figures say it's down to poor planning and corruption. also coming up

ukraine's harvest is coming with no place to go. shipments of grey not being allowed out of this kind of out of the country, but the un warns that millions of tons are still taking up storage needed for this year's crop. and pulpit francis arrives to lift spirits on the christian sabbath at an italian town that is still repairing the damage. 13 years after a devastating earthquake. plus in the bonus league, our blackbar hold league leaders, a by a munich to a one all draw in a thrilling clash goals, and much more coming up in school. ah, monica jones, good to have you with us? pakistan's climate minister is calling flash floods that have killed over a 1000 people,

a climate catastrophe. the newest fatalities are primarily being reported in a north west and down in southern st province. southern a baluchistan province is also heavily impacted by weeks of unrelenting monsoon rains. more than 30000000 people nationwide are affect it, while vital infrastructure has been crippled by the historic inundation, the country's prime minister is appealing to other countries for help. forced from their homes, with only the few belongings they could save from the flood waters. there just some of the 33000000 pakistanis authorities say have already been affected by this years flooding. bellagio, stan, pakistan's, largest and poorest province, is one of the worst affected some here feel abandoned.

if a malaria, hiring our own belongings, our house is submerged. good. how else are we supposed to save them under? am quoted there. you can see how we are carrying them in such a terrible situation where you come up. there's nobody from the government, nobody to help him. and only to even ask about our lebanese here to the northwest and punjab. these foot victims at least are getting some official help already. but the scale of the task is massive. rivers, swollen by unrelenting rains, have washed away bridges and roads across the country, hindering aid efforts. the cash track government has launched an international appeal for funds to help deal with the devastation. but the cost of the damage is already estimated to run into the billions. earlier we talked to our deal share us with the charity care international about the critical situation and pakistan and the need for international assistance. everything is required to be honest

to day if you don't have to do. ready there will be more and more challenges will be facing incoming days. so international help are required from now and of all the aid workers odd at the sea level responding to this emergency along with the government of arkansas. so the support is to be honest, required. now know if he, if he really made for the a long time, will be late for this response. so we really need to think of us today rather than tomorrow. let's take a look now at some of the other stories making headlines. at least 23 people were killed. arrival groups exchanged gunfire, and the libyan capital. tripoli. tensions between 2 organizations vying for control of libya have been rising for months. their affairs, they could escalate into a nation wide conflict survey on kosovo has settled a dispute over the movement of citizens across their border. id holders from both

sides will be able to travel freely between the 2 west balkan states. european union foreign policy chief joseph barrell announced the deal in a tweet. people in japan half turned out for the country's 1st fireworks display since the outbreak of the pandemic. a spectator numbers were limited to 60 percent of pre pandemic levels as a precaution. one visitor to the annual spectacle said to summer hadn't been the same without fireworks lighting up the sky. the un says millions of tons of grain still need to be cleared from ukrainian, silas to make room for the new harvest shipments resumed through the black sea. earlier this month, after deal broken by turkey lifted a russian blockade. the flow of grain has held ease food prices but export so far down by half compared to the same period last year. did others mathias billing or in keith told us how new government regulation can help get more grain exported.

there's the hope that the new measures they introduced will have an impact. basically, they introduced new rules for men. men are bought, banned from leaving the country since the beginning of the war due to potential tribute mobilization. so men between 18 and 60 cannot leave ukraine, and the government has approved new rules for the men who need to travel on business for business purposes. and these include sailors. so the hope is that if ships have difficulty finding a crew to sailing, that ukrainian sailors would be more ready to sail in. but the problem is we also need the ships. and there's also the problem of insurance, which is of course, very costly because they're sailing into a war zone. and despite all the guarantees, so it's a put met measure that could potentially ease, but it's probably not the solution to the problem. the company's solution to italy now where pope francis is in the central italian town of l'aquila on

a closely watched visit as part of his trip. he got a look for himself and reconstruction weren't following the 2009 earthquake, which badly damaged many of the regions buildings. the main event on the pope's itinerary was celebrating mass at a pilgrimage church. the visit to l'aquila comes a day after frances appointed 20 new cardinals. many of whom may 1 day help shows his successor union went to the soley. as a more, i'm john now here in the studio by d. w. religious affairs correspondent matching gac enter. that actually raises quite a lot of question. so could you perhaps tell us, i mean, during mass the pope said that relinquishing power was a sign of humility. this is surely somehow adding to speculation about his future. indeed. so there's been quite a bit of speculation quite a bit of rumor, particularly in specialize especially express about the possibility of him. essentially stepping back, stepping out of the policy visit to l'aquila,

is itself quite significant because actually in l'aquila rests on that one of the only folks that actually has resigned his position and drink the homily he actually did say that relinquishing bower is indeed a form of humility, it is an expression of godliness. this will not help settle rumors as a matter of fact will probably accelerate the rumor machine. and this comes directly in the heels of the sconces story, which is happening actually pretty much right now. it will continue to morrow and the day after, in which 20 new cardinals, many of them quite aligned with the both political and ideological. if not, theological intuitions had been actually brought into the fold of the church and become potential electors in the choosing of the next pope. so what does this tell us about the future of the church? it's actually a very good question. it's really quite difficult to sort of pinpoint what is that happens sort of from here on, particularly because there's been

a very strong confrontation between very conservative sectors of the church, particularly led by the anglo saxon world, the u. s. and australia play sort of a really significant role. and essentially the policy which has taken a much more integrative, if not sort of commitment committed to diversity. many of the people that were now made cardinals, or people that come from fairly unusual places. for instance, gore where there's been for 450 years sort of membership of the church, but actually no cardinal us. and as a matter of fact, people that generally belong to the basis of the church and do not really came coming to the church as part of sort sort of it's hierarchy. so it's very likely that the next conclave will see many of these voices were presented in ways that they had not been before our meeting acted on the religious affairs correspondent, thank you so much that you're welcome. ah. in the bonus league a now by munich took on mention glad bar looking to continue there. perfect. start
