ah ah ah ah, this is deed of you news live from berlin, nuclear experts from the united nations arrive at ukraine's a separation of power station. their arrival was delayed because of shelling nearby team plans to inspect the safety of the russian occupied plant were fighting has already prompted the shut down of one reactor. also coming up the un accuses china

of possible crimes against humanity in chin check. a report says there's evidence of torture and abuse inside camps for wiggers and other minorities. china rejects the charges, and germany turns down the heat. a new energy saving law comes into effect, forcing some buildings to limit heating and turn off the lights at night. we ask how germans feel about the cold, dark winter ahead. ah, next, spicer, welcome to the program. nuclear experts from the international atomic energy agency have now arrived at ukraine's giant is operated nuclear facility. they're aiming to check the safety of the russian occupied power station, which has seen several near disasters in recent weeks. the i a e, a is hoping to set up a permanent base on site. despite the danger posed by power,

shut downs and ongoing missile strikes nearby, their mission is to prevent a nuclear accident. they know they're heading into a war zone, but that won't stop them. the un team is determined to inspect the south region nuclear plant. after months of haggling to gain access, we are moving are we are aware of the current situation. there has been increased military activity, including this morning. at the same time, we consider that we have the minimum conditions to move accepting that there is a very, very high ukraine says, one of the 2 operational reactors at the plant has been shot down due to rush and shelling. both sides have accused each other of bombing areas near the facility

last week. damage to a transmission line knocked the planned off line, heightening fears of a radiation leak, or even a react to meltdown. in the event of a nuclear leak, it will be difficult if not impossible, to provide humanitarian assistance. it is therefore high time to stop playing with fire and instead take concrete measures to protect this facility and other like it from any military operations. as combat continues on ukraine's eastern front, all eyes are in south region, hoping to prevent a disaster that could reach far beyond the countries borders. did it as much his billing or is in separation? he told me about the obstacles the un team is facing now. well, we're hearing that they have arrived on site, though they're most of the obstacles,

the biggest obstacles for their arrival. they've overcome them. there was fighting on the way they were delayed at a check point because of the fighting. and then they managed to travel on gsa kate got to decide the obstacles or the challenges that are waiting for them. now is the work on the sides and that is, of course a lot what they need to do there. and there we don't at all. no, under what conditions they will be able to work, whether they will get full access or not. russia has promised it, but we will still need to see the results. and they've got in, which is it one you know, successful step in a larger, larger process. if it is possible to broker some kind of solution to ensure the safety of the plan and the people around it, ah, what kind of shape could it take? do you think? is there any discussion about that?

what the missions are objective is to assess what the situation is like other security systems working, how big is the damage? what are the working conditions? is there any risk from a difficult conditions between the ukrainian stuff and the management that has been brought in from russia, et cetera, et cetera. what are the conditions there? and this needs to be monitored? it needs to be monitored longer than this, possibly possible, a few days that it would take them to complete this mission. so somebody will have to stay there. whether they can state is the 1st thing, what needs to be done then to ensure the safety? well that's already the result of their findings. ok, d, d, v d w's mathias bidding. her thanks so much. while attention to our high rounds apparition elsewhere, people are trying to reestablish normal activities to day marks the 1st day of school in ukraine. and more than half of all schools will offer in person classes.

only schools with underground air raid shelters are permitted to reopen with the rest reverting to online learning. since rushes invasion, thousands of educational buildings have been damaged or destroyed. but experts education is essential for mental health, giving young people a sense of normality. amid the grim realities of the conflict. d. w and philip schultz caught up with children at a school in the kia suburb of butcher where russian soldiers carried out atrocities against civilians. in the early months of the war it's a very special morning for the school in the town of boucher. as you can see behind me, a lot of students are returning to their classrooms for the very 1st time since the russian invasion started in ukraine. there's been a lot of discussion see, or if it's safe to do so, the government says, yes it is. but the schools need a bomb shelter and the parents can decide themselves if they want to send their pupils their children to the classrooms or not. or if they want to have online

classes with me now, is one of the pupils here? her name is sonia. good morning, sonia. good morning. sonya. tell me how does it feel for you to come back to school after such a long time? i feel so excited and happy to see my friends teaches and to be in this place when they feel comfortable. thank you so much. as you can see, i think a lot of people here feel the same. the parents, the students. they are just happy to come back. of course, there are a lot of students that can't come back yet. they're either still abroad or their fate is unknown. but everybody is hoping that this day will be quiet and nobody has to go to the bomb shelters. and while ukrainian students return to classrooms back home, others are starting their education abroad as refugees. here in germany, around a $160000.00 ukrainian students have enrolled at local schools, their families faced a tough decision returned to ukraine to learn in their own language or stay and

start again from abc. kim, listen clean. come here. usually when you're going to school soon by josh. yeah. yeah. like i said, after breakfast 6 year old clean will set off for his very 1st day of school. he and his mother natalia, had spent 2 years preparing for the stay. but russia's invasion of ukraine forced them to change their plans. oh no, sorry about that. oh, yes, i went to kindergarten and before kindergarten, i went to school for a bit all without school force. his either got out of there again, no garden though. he went to preparatory class and were getting ready to start 1st grade and he is. but instead you're going to school in berlin zone. you started learning the ukrainian alphabet. mm hm. but are continuing with german words. nemea ski slow though. when the war started natalia and clean hunt 2 nights and a bomb shelter after that, they left ukraine, heading forest to poland and then to germany where natalia had friends. she hoped

to go back home to ukraine before the school year started. but it's still dangerous . there, oh should i beg from fidela by one of the news again yesterday? i follow it all the time. and i saw that they were showing again, broken though. i don't know. i don't want my child to be there on the dock. now clean is going to a public school in berlin. it takes him 10 minutes to walk there. all of the classes are in german, and he has already learned a couple of phrases. or you have your school room, how a chart from hello and good by. what can you say he'll i can say. thank you. and please bianca visa. gov. thank you and please, what else did? what did they say when it's time to eat ethan ethan? i don't care. and before that wash your hand a while. now it's time to rush to class. they don't want to be late. the german culture ministry estimates that $160000.00 ukranian children attended

schools and germany this year and additional burden for the education system. schools need more teachers. but not only that, that us, since we're the household of one of the main problem is that we don't know for sure if these kids are going to stay here for the next 5 or 10 years. or if they'll leave within a few months, which is completely understandable with the current situation in ukraine, parents don't know whether they'll stay in germany or does anthem concerts. nissan, which play the dodge from natalia herself, knows families who went back. they see many schools in ukraine teach online because of the danger of bombing is that is yaga thought a. i have friends who were torn over whether to stay or leave us thought, now they're there and see if their freight, but at least they're altogether good at that. i'm still not. dost ashton loop accompaniment? if mr. natalia is raising her son alone. she decided to stay in berlin for

now and clean like that. here. he learned how to count in school today. first graders don't do homework, but claim is happy to show off at this number skills. hey, tom, how many birds? 330 and black talk to 456 chased. while claim is in class counting animals, natalia is looking for a new apartment in berlin, preferably not so far from school. she also wants to take a german class herself, said that she can keep up with her son. think. let's take a look at some of the other stores making headlines around the world. russian president vladimir putin has paid his respects to the late soviet leader, mikhail gorbachev. who died tuesday, futon spokesman said earlier that the russian president will not attend garbage house funeral on saturday due to scheduling issues the other day. gorbachev sooner would have elements of a state funeral, including a guard of honor. russian energy firm luke oils as its chairman,

has died following a serious illness. but russian media had earlier reported that reveal magnet was found dead after falling out of a hospital window in moscow. luke oil was one of the few russian companies to declare its opposition to the war in ukraine. back in march, poland has held ceremonies, martini 83rd anniversary of the countries invasion by nazi germany, which unleashed the 2nd world war. this comes as poland parlor released a new report, estimating loss is caused by germany's invasion to be the equivalent of $1.00 trillion us dollars. the report is expected to form the basis of a reparations claim against berlin. united nations has china's treatment of wiggers and other muslim minority groups may constitute crimes against humanity . in a long delayed report, the un human rights office said there was credible evidence of torture, forced medical treatment, and sexual violence in detention camps in the north western shin. shang region

which page in calls training centers. china opposed the release of the report and as it denied the accusations, he wrote the $220.00 acre routine. number 3 detention center is the largest in chin jang. and in china, it's of said as he's like this one where beijing has long been accused of detaining more than 1000000 weigle and other muslim minorities. now a bombshell un human rights of his report says that attentions which it called arbitrary and discriminatory may amount to crimes against humanity. it also said it found, quote, credible allegations of torture, rape full sterilization and forced labor. the long anticipated report was released just 13 minutes before michelle bash lead time as un high commissioner of human rights ended and followed months of prussia from china to block it's publication. i'd just say this report is

a hodgepodge of misinformation that serves as a political tool for the us in the west to strategically use changing to contain china. the chinese government has long maintained that many of its facilities in chin jang, of occasional training centers created to counter alleged extremism and separatism among the regions. muslim majority but pictures from facilities and chin. jang that will eat earlier this year, tell a very different story. with hooded and bound prisoners forced into stress positions surrounded by police officers. armed with clubs. the un report urge is china to release detainees. and explain the fate of the huge numbers of people who have simply disappeared. but with beijing denying, having even committed to any abuses, many observers a doubtful it will change its policies in she. jang,

amnesty international is one of several human rights organizations that long called on the you and to release his report. i ass amnesty secretary general and yes. can i'mma if the humans findings match her groups investigations. yeah. oh good much them. they found a crime against humanity, king, we forgot to detention and discrimination. they from serious human rights violation, sweeping the pension or a motel to torture, sexual violence, violation, so reproductive rights, they hold on by issues form for freedom of religion. so overall, they matched very way what we found with human rights watch found went to number of other regal human rights organization as found bucks. they add something easy, game changer that report because it's coming from the un because it's coming from a high commissioner rule. until recently it was really doing everything she could

to avoid the creaky sizing china. and because china make such effort to send so the report. so the fact that keeps coming out the fact that it is quite strong, either game changer for the international community. we want to get to the delay in publishing in a 2nd. but 1st of all, the report contents stopped short of calling china's action a genocide or something similar like that. is that a mistake in your estimation? well, amnesty tell us, so it did not call clearly either that there was jo side. the crime of genocide is extremely defi court to document to prove he story pretty and very few cases of general find them actually being found by court of law. so these are, you know, and or so we don't need to make a game or key in e, o, of, of crimes, of crimes against humanity is extremely serious. and should be taken of,

such by the international community. and it means that the international community is duty bound to act. we don't need a general side for the international community to act. so crimes against humanity is a very good, very waiting formed conclusion. and one that he's pushing, enforcing the international community to react. let me just get back if i may to that delay question. why did it take so long? you were bring up earlier. the report is published on the final day of the job of the un high commissioner for human rights. me said bachelor, what took so long? what is the story that comes from the way that they needed more time to check in fact and to allow the usual right to reply from? from china. the story we think is closer to the truth is that

china put a lot of pressure on the un and all me should by shooting out so not to rece the report. and indeed, every words that has been heard took by china over the last few months, testifying to them ego. they sweeting, this to sensor their report. so i think the delay is a reflection of the day. we live in of the polarization and of the pressure that everyone is on there. whether it's a un agency, or indeed an injury on acting like cows. it's, it's good, it's good that finally has been released better later than never. it's good that it so it's coming as a strong report. and frankie, china cannot act. he was a triple being biased because of the time he took because it's coming from these particular high commissioner. and because the report itself, or told documents heavily how the chinese rules and policies

violate international human. right. so, so it's really an analysis on we vain china palm, we the, the chinese system of repression. they cannot attack that because the, the report uses every one of those rules and policies to demonstrate that they violated till national human rights. so it's a very clever rico. thank you so much and just cut about amnesty international secretary general. thank you. and now a look at some more stories in the news today. russia and china have begun a series of military drills and rushes far east 1st since 2018. moscow says the week long exercises will involve over 50000 troops from multiple countries. paging says its involvement is unrelated detentions over taiwan and the war and ukraine. the vosta, i beg your pardon, the governor of the us state of arizona has travelled to taiwan for talks on

economic cooperation in high tech sectors. duties visit to tied pay is the latest in a string of visits by us. politicians that have angered china paging claims. taiwan is part of its territory and says the visits encourage taiwanese pro independence force or zone stands with taiwan. and we look at, in response to these high profile us visits, china has stepped up, its military drills around taiwan in august chinese military aircraft, flew a record number of incursions and to taiwan to air defense zone. so how concerned is taiwan about a possible full scale invasion w's, richard walker put that question to taiwan. foreign minister, joseph lou in an exclusive interview, here is an excerpt. you see that the chinese seems to be preparing for a war against high one, for what they claim unification of their country. so what they were doing at the 1st part of august,

which is exercise according to their playbook against i one, let me say it again. they fired missiles to the waters near taiwan. they conducted very large scale air and sea exercises. they conducted cyber attacks against high one. they conducted this information campaign against ty, one in the same time, they also engage in equal caution. so put it all together. this is what they want to do to taiwan when they want to invade taiwan. and you can watch the full interview now with joseph, who on d. w. you tube channels here in germany, new energy saving measures have come into effect as the government attempts to reduce power consumption starting today. heating and public buildings will be kept at 19 degrees celsius. hot water will be turned off, and temperature is lowered and swimming pools. nighttime lighting and buildings and advertising signs will be prohibited. household are also asked to play a part limiting their energy consumption whenever possible,

essential institutions such as schools, hospitals, and other care centers are not effective. dw political correspondent manual shows is on the story i asked or what kind of impact these measures are expected to have . hi, nick, while an impact is done, a lot of energy has already been said here in germany, but we have to keep in mind adopt was done under very lenient conditions. it hasn't been very cold yet because of the summer there was no need to heat off or there's no need for loads of extra light just yet. but calm the winter season, all of that will change and in terms of money, of course, there has been some respite over the summer because i showed them aid aid packages were put in place to reduce the burden on consumers. but the inflation rate reached a 40 years high record. it's around 9 percent in germany and concrete. lee. well,

that simply means that every sector in every sector, prices have drastically increased and these impacts everyone, not just the energy sector, not just industries, but also the food sector. an old dot because the russian war against ukraine is impacting exports, imports, and daily life is affected in the, in the sense that we're groceries for example, are getting more expensive bills like getting, you know, higher. so the entire market is affected. and of course electricity guys getting more expensive on gemini, just like every western countries trying to wind themselves from it's dependent to russian fossil fuels. and it's just just the beginning of a cold and dark winter ahead. i mean, how should germans bracer even more measures to get through the, the energy crunch? while the government is certainly trying to agree on you measure the met this week

to, to agree on some of the haven't been any to hasn't been any concrete plan. but for example, damages such as increasing the minimum wage stuff was actually an actual promise from chancellor. all that shows that was even before the economy crisis is also plans to lower the gas taxes. and to a further propose, a financial aid package is also looking into 2023. for example, you know, these 9 you as multi train ticket could also be renewed for cold amounts in some states, such as here in berlin. so sets any new measures are being discussed to try and shelter consumers as much as possible from the crisis. and do you have any idea if your average german is willing to participate with these steps? any numbers, any indication? i think we can already say that they do, i mean people have, you know, decrease their energy consumption already. we can see also a chance of habits of consuming happy to know people are buying more for did from

discounts markets. they also very wary about what, you know, big investments such as call such as clothes even. so they're really trying to be careful and people are saving more than they have had in the past. so that's, that's definitely a change of habits that showed that people are indeed very concerned. ok w's political correspondent, emmanuel, thanks for that. the european union's drug regulator has authorized the 1st coven 19 vaccines. where the on the cross bar there in the adapted vaccines are made by bio tech pfizer and madonna, but they do not target the newest on the con there. and on wednesday, us health officials approve vaccines that do target the newest on the convent tweet booster shots. could be available in the u. s. in a matter of days. you authority say they hope to approve a separate pfizer vaccine adapted for the latest on types in the fall.
