ah ah ah this is d, w is my from the 3rd of pakistan under water monsoon floods the worse for 30 years. the government describes the devastation is mind boggling and blamed climate change caused by other countries. also on the program. directly carrick knocked on the outside. it tells the followers to end their protests back to more than 20

dying classes in baghdad. but look at what spot the unrest. european union discusses making it harder for russians to travel to the block eastern countries back the idea, but france and germany water bond could be counterproductive. and the un nuclear watchdog arrives in key from the 1st lack of a mission aimed at avoiding a potential nuclear disaster. the believe good stuff and reach your pop. ah, i'm so galle welcome to the program. pakistan's prime minister has described the devastating floods affecting more than 33000000 people as the worst in the country's history. united nations is issued an emergency appeal for funding to help pakistan recover. a 3rd of the country is under water. this map shows the vast

areas hit by the flooding, stretching the entire length of the country. and many of pakistan's breadbasket provinces in the south have been submerged, raising concerns about food security, a village underwater in pakistan. sind province, one of several key agricultural regions that now resemble small oceans. many people here were poor before the floods came. now they've lost almost everything in those areas that are dry, makeshift camps. how's those displaced by the water and farmers salvage what they can from their fields? pakistan's climate minister says the flooding is apocalyptic, and that her country is bearing the brunt of climate change caused by more develop nations. because then is less than one percent in the global

emissions of by, if you like. we hardly contribute any of emissions to the broader emission blanket that makes so for greenhouse gases to turn our climates into a living hill. in the northern pakistani city of la horror, the effects of the floods are being felt in soaring prices for food and other basic goods. philip, you are, these prices of increased a lot because of the floods? well, it is thank if goods can't be transported from baluchistan. the roads are close iffy. my, our business here is almost slow to a star bodies that are built while people can't feed their children, can't pay their rent, so got their can even pay electricity. bill should i have the old prices of w a dot got a sec, they're supposed double mendera the floods could not have come at a worse time for pakistan, where the economy was already in crisis. now the government says it needs more than $10000000000.00 to recover from this latest climate catastrophe.

hi, isha city is a hazard based disasters. experts insurance is from karachi. welcome to d. w. and one of the biggest a problems are facing any sort of would be of rescue plans of the moment. um, or with regard still of basic rescue. the ordinance is normally on the kind of civil defense agencies who have the resources to reach out through headquarters and more advanced means of, of getting people out. but of course, the sky, you know, or something like this is just so huge that as you report just trying to, i did. we have something 933000000. busy affected it's just the very,

very large scale of getting one civil defense. even it was in the defense was more of a nice. it would still be quite to think i did so communities i really have to rely on themselves on their own resources to get themselves out of trouble. and what are their most urgent needs? ah dad, i don't thing is um not, not really something i i see one to 5 to speak about. i've not i was in the fields working with with are urgent beads, etc. that have an issue. i think we're actually actually in the field. so let's, let's look at how this can possibly be prevented because pakistan is prone to mom soon flooding. and we've seen that this is bigger than the country has ever faced before. is it inevitable? but the next time this happens,

the devastation will be on this scale. or other things that can happen during perhaps reconstruction to avert this likelihood. yes, i think that's that, that's the big question really because what the kind of research that i've done on large related issues and the boss demonstrates and from then on i want you to be locked in 2010, which was about 12 years old. and evidence has, has demonstrated that actually when it comes to things like disaster relief and being able to, to provide a disaster. the state does have socially dimensions and a half of, of progress from previous disasters. and there is

a mechanism through which those kinds of immediate relief interventions, particularly cash interventions are put in place on that. i think there has been been lessons learned and the state has managed to do to demonstrate that it's able to do something on the one to going to more longer a fever which of course includes also ensuring that they are longer fight here. dan, your lance that ensure that the next time there is extreme pain. there isn't this kind of devastation definitely. there has been bought from disaster management to parties and from that kind of the roller odyssey framework we did, which i thought that long term planning ok. ok, thank you very much for that. i sure did. i do has advice to faster. excellent.

thank you. as re rac where followers of the shy clinic looked out, al solder appear to be heeding his calls to end their protest. after a 2nd i have clashes in and around baghdad screamed zone. i'll sadder apologize to be rocky people for the violence. as he ruptured between bible, she eyed forces, least 23 people have been count ah, clashes in the heart of baghdad for a 2nd day. supporters of influential shiite cleric and politician, mac tulsa, dia attacked the green zone again, exchanging firewood security forces. one day after he declared he was quitting politics. they're heavily armed and frustrated with the political deadlock. it says that they have cotton wool in there is. danny, we are the reforms. we asked them to pack down what they didn't get out of pocket.

well, they did nothing with them on that cold and now we don't tell them it's sad maley dish should have. so i know that we are only here to ask for a good life to ask for schools for our children, access to health care. we won't dignity stonewall. google. jo dot good are what? oh, on monday crowd stormed a government palace in the green zone. home to diplomatic buildings. leaving dozens of the day support is dead. the clashes were just the latest escalation litski crisis that's left iraq without any government can selections last october, nothing. but on tuesday afternoon, sandra used a televised speech to order his supporters to return home and apologized to the iraqi people for the bloodshed and on the market. that got many onset his coal immediately and began leaving the green zone as instructed.

rice. so i tell you what, we'll take a look at some, some more stories are making headlines right now. and we'll start in shall anchor where police are fired water cannon and tear gas to disperse protestors in the capital, colombo crowds with the money. the release of demonstrates is detained under the new government. and the country has seen months of protest as rankin's a graph with severe financial crisis shortages of basic goods. can your supreme court has begun to hear a challenge to this month's presidential election? the court says it has identified 9 points of contention. in the case brought by the opposition candidate rather a den gotten out of the last last to the former deputy president william router is team is alleging irregularities in the vote counting process and 7 police in madagascar say their office is killed 19 people as they tried to quell an angry mob open fire on a crowd, protesting the kidnapping of an albino child. officials in the town of congo say

armed protest, a storm to local police station, and many people living with albinism faced violence of the region because of myths surrounding the condition. the 1st ship carrying grain from war torn ukraine has reached africa, the brave commandant doctor to booty on the horn of africa, loaded with 23000 metric tons of grain destined for ethiopia. a shipment was made possible by deal agreed by kiva. moscow. team of united nations inspectors arrived in ukraine ahead of their visit to the russian occupied upper region nuclear power plant. the mission met to waive that you cranium, present a lot of minutes landscape in the capitol, keith. and later this week that they will inspect the reach of plants, which has been repeatedly hit by shelley, russia and ukraine and blame each other for striking. this is going to say the fighting is prompted fears of a nuclear disaster. we can join d,

w jan. phillip sholtes, who's in the capital key, felt welcome young philip. so we saw that the president, welcoming those, that nuclear inspectors out. what is next for them? when will they actually get? and to be zachary ship a power plant? yes, the inspectors at sun meetings and give to day and they are planning to arrive at the nuclear power plant tomorrow. we don't know if this schedule is still valid. low senior, ukrainian official claims that to russia has started to hit the corridor that is needed by the inspectors to reach the power plant. the claim of the senior official has not been verified yet, but it is so certain that it's very difficult for the inspectors to fulfill their mission and time. also, a lot of ukrainians have already voiced their dollars. if russia were really give the inspectors full access to all areas of the blend and as far as we can tell,

what is the situation at the power plants at the moment? fighting has continue. it's at the plant and as usual, ukraine and russ i q is each of, of launching these attacks. the russian installed officials said that ukraine hit sensitive fuel storage building. today. the ukranian side said that russia was behind the new attacks and they posted a video of burning cars around the plant. so it's a very sensitive situation and nothing can be verified at the moment. but the mission for the inspectors will be very difficult. the only good news is that all measurement does so normal, radiation level elsewhere ukrainian forces on the offensive in the south. what's

the latest on their attempt to re take the hassle region? have you fighting has continued also around have saw throughout the region of have some and ukraine claims that has broken through several defense lines. there are some senior officials say that ukraine has also been able to hit the remaining bridges and ferries that are important for russian supply line. again, these claims cannot be verified at the moment, but what we can say for sure is that ukraine is still far away from the city of harrison itself. and a senior official said that ukrainians still have to be patient with the offensive . he said that it's well plans, but it will be slow and the aim as to where all the enemies there.

thank you for that shows in key the war has forced millions of ukrainians from their homes. many a children who have lost everything. a group of volunteers in the south is set up a summer camp for them. of course it's supposed to be a place of fun and safety. but as d w 's, the mathias bullying reports the horror of the war is never far away. i yada is 11 years old to day. it's a birthday like no other to see. i wish you have happiness and a peaceful sky above your head. i wish you that everything will be fine and that you can go home soon. this is a summer camp for kids and families with lost their home refugees from embattled occupied areas, yada and his mother fled her son, which is occupied by the russians. that was the c a u. it's the russians were

standing where with tangs garcia and next to the tanks where people are unable to live and then they to a few people way lies is not unable to live his code word, football, games, just a few weeks. many of these kids have some and most people in the lifetime yard, it's dad is the soldier and the ukranian army. his mother decided to flee when the russians started looking for the families of ukrainian soldiers. but yet you, as soon as i looked through the blinds, i was scared, but the neighbors saved me. they told the soldiers that it was the house of a single mother with 2 kids. and the soldiers looked, they saw children's clothes drawing in the yard and didn't enter. yeah. i need the dean these nicely though. my dear. the organizer is alexi olenick. everybody calls him uncle yoshi. so he wanted to create

a space of solace if only temporary the war is always close. you remember as a 7 year old girl named marsha whilst him to bring her friend, the camp was full, so he told her the friend could come 2 weeks later. she is 3 me mush. and one day she was sitting there in the hammock crying. lou, yep, it's. i approached her and asked for to blush, what's wrong and thought? and she shrugged his shoulders. but it was quick when you said my friend, whom he didn't take on. i said yes, i remember she's coming in 2 weeks. is one of these. and she said, well i was and she's not coming any more yet has amused or you have to. i understand if not my fault that but she would still be alive. i this

is too many have stories like this. but uncle yoshi and the other volunteers try as much as they can to distract every body with outdoor activities. it's the birthday boy's turn to climb the rock solid yard. it makes it to the toss it. well, you get down my bravo. which good idea? get them done with that victory, at least for to day. when so much in his life remains uncertain. oh, joy, i will i, yesterday i was on a boat. we were rowing around an island. you know what i forgot about the war. i forgot about it all, well, fair, the woo law. and then night time comes and of course there's a camp fire just like summer break, except that this is not just a break from school. but from a war a new foreign ministers meeting in prague to discuss a bound on tourist visas for russians. eastern countries are backing the idea,

but germany and france regarded as counter productive. instead, germany is foreign minister and i know bandwalk has proposed suspending a european vizier agreement with moscow which are made in which makes it easier for russians to enter the block. several e u countries have already implemented limitations of bands on russian tourists. roderick cheese vetter is a member of the german parliament for the opposition christian democrats and defense, and policy and foreign policy expert. a welcome to the w. i'm a what, what you're thinking? i'll miss it should be a you impose a full visa, bound on russian citizens. yes, hello, for a long time i supported the these are been on russian tourists because i supported a liberalization. but we see there are no effects on the russian society. so i'm completely supporting the position of other european union member states to

extend the reserve and also for tourists because russia ex, exploiting that. and i do not understand the timid position of our chancellor who is isolating germany once again in europe. but he's not isolated. he's got friends behind him, so that's, you know, that's the 2 biggest countries in the block against this idea. well, i believe this isn't isolation because after the war against ukraine, the free west, the country is between russia and germany and france were reposition themselves. and they will very well see who has supported the freedom and was against the russians of liberal handling of the situation and the exploiting of the western liberalization. and therefore, i believe that france and germany will be isolated in the future, especially regarding the new economic situation,

which we will have after gas prices and electricity will come to a new position that. so what would i ban on russian tourists achieve? well, the majority of russian people cannot afford to spend the holidays in cyprus or in greece or in italy. so especially officials will exploit this. and therefore, we must make clear to the russian population that you are not well come on. the european union soil, as long as the vast majority of the russian population, is supporting the war against ukraine and against the rule based international order. we must give signals to the russian population that their system is destroying the base order and us destroying peace and security in europe. and

therefore, i am supporting a result. and i do not understand the position of our chancellor as well as of the french president. and we have the german foreign minister and a bad bulk with a sort of compromise ideal, whereby you would suspend a deal with moscow, which would mean russians having to wait longer and pay more for a visa. it doesn't sound like that's a compromise that you'd be interested in. oh, that's an excuse that. so try to mitigate the that look inside our government. i support in general the green position to have a more stronger stance against russia. and i understand that under the nobel book is trying to find a way out. but the real challenge is that the chancellor read and we must name this . and we must also make very clear that we need strategic communication. what's the rational population that they are not welcome, as long as this is a system which is destroying peace, stability and freedom in europe. ok, well,

that's very clear. thank you so much for joining us, robert keith, better. a member of the general public in your building with christian democrats. thank you. navi, at the last at u. s. military plain left afghanistan a year ago ending america's longest ever military engagements. the withdrawal followed several chaotic weeks that saw the taliban take over the country. as u. s. forces pulled back and african troops surrendered by early august u. s. troop numbers that dwindled as the taliban closed in. one of the lodge established in history. so more than a 100000 people flown out of the country. so this is the last soldier to leave a boarding, a flight, the carried military personnel and the u. s. ambassador. the taliban quickly took over the airport and paraded equipment left behind by the americans and then nato allies. much of it had been destroyed to keep it out of the fight as hands. so a year after their abrupt departure, many former u. s. military personnel are still haunted by what happened at cobble airport. last

august. d. w. stephens. siemens has been talking to to us afghan war veterans and near seattle in washington state. us army ranger, a veteran matthew griffin, doesn't need visual reminders of what transpired in august last year. c the images of desperate afghans at capital airports tried to flee their country as taliban fighters took over or burned in his memory and carved into his conscience. he says that moment it broke me and i had ever i reach out to a couple friends, a local small business. they offered up a board room which we set up a command center and i had army rangers, navy seals green arrays, and a bunch of civilians come in and we set up a full on command center. griff, as everybody calls him, his friends and comrades went into overdrive,

trying to help bring as many afghans out as possible. people they had worked with fort, bled for quite and left with griffith and many others are still upset about how the u. s. conducted their withdrawal from afghanistan, i don't know a service member that isn't are set up. and it's not that the law. i mean, i mean, everybody say, hey, we won all the battles, but we lost the war. but i think it's more than the lock in which fell flat on our word arc nation, acted in a dishonorable way. and the generals and the senior staff officers and all the people in the white house, and they're the ones who made those decisions. and i don't know a service member that just doesn't absolutely abhor them, period filled with frustration. griff offers his perspective and a reality check. you know, we have a lot of friends there who are hurting who are suffering and there is no way off for them. no one is coming, it's up to them, they're trapped. they need to figure out life moving forward. whether they decide

to ron or whether they decide to stay or whether they decide to fight, it's their decision. there's nothing that the everyday citizen like you and i can do to support them anymore. still grief and others continue their efforts to help, even though they can't send money or goods into afghanistan. they can't get anybody out any more, but they can still help afghans who made it into the u. s. meet jimmy, settle a former air force per a rescue man and friend of griff. he managers, the local african refugees assistance center is mission. now, helping afghans to get a foothold in their new home america, that's my, that's the, to my heart. i welcome them with the open arms. and because my folks, my family, at some point in history, were immigrants in u. s. and it be hypocritical to deny them the same opportunities.

jimmy and griff are just 2 of thousands of you as veterans who served in afghanistan, who are still trying to support afghans in any way possible. each, in their own way. the reminder of our top story at this hour united nations is issued an emergency appeal for funding for the victims of devastating floods in pakistan. on the 3rd of the countries under water least a 1000 people have died and millions have been displaced. this is d w. irish boundary has news asia in just a moment, and i'll be back at the top of the good with
