appealing to the world for help forced from their homes, with only the few belongings they could save from the flood waters. there just some of the 33000000 pakistani authorities say, have already been affected by this year's flooding. baluchistan pakistan's largest and poorest province is one of the worst affected some here feel abandoned a summer let. i am called the got it. we're carrying our own belonging, so our house is submerged. i think that it. how else are we supposed to save them? you can see how we're carrying them on such a terrible situation. if there is nobody from a government, nobody to hell will be to even ask about it. we put in a while i've been here to the north west in punjab. these flood 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 that the damage is already estimated to run into the billions. pakistan's climate change minister sharon man has just returned from the worst affected region. she gave us his 1st hand account of the devastation. well, as you can see, the, the images are heartbreaking. it's not the sad part is it that it is not stopping. the rain is relentless. the water is coming down in buckets from most of the sky. and we have now in our, it's week in the south of the country where it is beginning. many districts are beginning to look like they're part of the ocean. are

a helicopter sorties are not finding dry land to drop, you know, rations essential services. people on the roof and on bits of high ground, we've had to deploy the navy for the 1st time to operate in the bucket because much of it looks resembles a small ocean. so yes, it's quite devastating. it is a climate catastrophe. i'm very clear because the whole of this year we have seen one after another cascade of one after another event, extreme weather event and a guest dime that good after season. and that started lead to the in early march, late february, when we went straight from winter to spring pakistan became one of the hardest places on the planted crossing 53 degrees in the south. and that it's triggered, agreed de la public stress. it triggered the us

a whole season up our fire, which we had to back in areas that we already have for us. so it's been a very stressful time. and then of course, this unrelenting and that was pakistan's climate change minister sherry romano. let's take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world. now. india has carried out its largest ever demolition project. to 100 meter high apartment towers on the outskirts the capital delhi were brought down in a matter of seconds. india supreme court ordered the demolition after it was discovered. the high rise is violated. numerous safety regulations. the u. s. navy says 2 of its warships have sailed through the taiwan strait is the 1st such transit since china staged unprecedented military drills around the island. taiwan lives under constant threat of invasion by china,

which claims it as its own territory. germany is filling its gas dogs more quickly than expected, despite russian supply cuts. the government says it's on target to fill 85 percent of gas storage capacity by early next month. current levels at 82 percent. berlin plans to stop using russian gas entirely. next year. foreign ministers in brussels are expected to make it more difficult for russian citizens to travel to the european union. they are set to suspend a 2007 agreement, given giving preferential treatment to visa applications from russians. the measure falls short of the total travel band. some member states have demanded. poland, and the czech republic have already stopped issuing visas to russians. and others may follow. i asked the w correspondent bert figure in brussels. whether this will make travelling for russians more difficult. yes, it's very, more costly and also the be more complicated to,

to lock an application in the shannon countries instead of 35 years russians would have to pay 80 years. they would have to wait 3 weeks for the process and to be finalized and alter the embassies could ask for more documents and also for proof that the tourist can maintain themselves than they are in shannon. and that is difficult because they don't have access to international credit card systems anymore and or to international bank accounts. so there will be a lot of administration administrative burden added through the process. and all of that is designed to cut back the entries from russians into the shannon zone. so far since russia began its war on ukraine half a year ago, we have won 1000000 entries by a russian passport holders registered in the you. most of them through finland, latvia and estonia, the 3 countries that have land borders with russia. because as you know,

russians cannot fly into the you anymore. so they try to, to take the land crossings. and these entries are not visas actually, because the people can enter in twice or thrice or many times with the 90 day shang, and visa and the problem is to cut this bag. many countries have already started to slow down the process. for example, in germany, only 110th of the regular amount of visas has been issued in the 1st half of 2022. and just briefly, if you don't mind, could this eventually mean a complete ban on russians coming to europe? not yet. there is no travel been other kinds of visas will be issued. for example, for russians who want to settle to study here or to visit family. this is possible, but it will, the tourist visa will be severely cut back. many countries have announced that now, but for russians, there's also a way to circumvent that. turkey, for example, allows visa free travel to it's territory. so if you want to vacation on the sea,

you can still do that as a russian. ok. d w's birth higert reporting for us from brussels. thanks so much. officials in the west african state of angola are making the final tallies in an election which has returned the governing party to power. the m t. l. a was founded by the marxists leader in former president edwardo santos. heads of state from across africa have been attending his funeral and the capital wander santos died last month after a heart attack. he rolled angola for nearly 4 decades. the funeral was delayed by a long dispute between his family and the government. our correspondent, as they english, is in angola and looks back on the life of a device of figure. oh oh i'm good. i bids farewell to the man who of the nation for 38 years he do are due to santa
