protesters accused german politicians of prioritizing ukraine over germany mutual. we need politicians who stand up for our citizens here in germany. local news report say many purchases were germans with a russian ethnic background and included some well known bright wing radicals that were met by con to protest in support of ukraine. the united nations nuclear watchdog says ukraine's is upper region facility has been cut off from its last main external electricity supply line. europe's largest nuclear power plant is now relying on a reserve power line and continues to supply electricity to the grid. the station is located near the front line and southern ukraine and is controlled by russian forces. a team of experts from the international atomic energy agency is monitoring the site, which was damaged in the fighting edge, madden at mascot. he is an engineering professor at the university of southern

california. he's worked at a safety as a safety inspector at nuclear power plants including to noble and fukushima. and i began by asking him what could happen if the power plants reserve power line fails as well? situation, as you said, is a plan. if this last straw basically goes down this, as you mentioned, is the power line that brings electricity can, could take electricity from the plant. but this is a little bit lower voltage line that the other offset power is that we have that's what, because it doesn't have enough capacity. they have to shut down to one of the 2 remaining operational reactors. if this power goes down, then the mercy of emergency diesel generators, which are very cranky and finicky equipment. and of course the, as the name colors,

emergency it are only used for emergency are polar comes back. and if that emergency generators cannot supply enough power to the plant done, unfortunately, we're going to have a situation called total the station blackout. as the director general go see a fire. yeah. which, why did they move on? i think that he and his agency, he's ever nobel peace prize. he said that his interview at the minute 20 last friday evening. this total, the station blackout is very scary. and unfortunately it could cause some over coding of the spent fuel pool. and if the reactors are not, that of course, shut down that could have some serious problem in a reactors. ok. so inspectors are staying at the plant to i said to be staying there for

a longer term mission. what will be the biggest task day to another heroes from a basically working in the bar zone. and they are not sure welcome by the russian occupiers there in order to be did i send you stuff? are you over there for what's going on? i think their biggest concern is of course, are kinetic military operation against apply shutting, which is going on at the same time. if i was one of them, i would give equal them even more important attention to the working conditions, to die of working condition off the ukraine operators. i'm in my job all 3 years out the 1st and last layer of the fence of any society for the major accident. on the 2nd, look at some of the stories making headlines around the world. german chancellor laughed schoultz has announced a 65000000000 europe relief package to deal with rising energy bills and cost of living crisis. it includes

you're home long period was already last year. this you are to say i had to work for an even more. so yeah, an incredible weekend and i'm really happy we got the guts from free. another world title is now surely a formality for, for stepan, we just 7 grand pre left. he's 110 of 15 races the season and leads by a mammoth 109 points. now let's check out some of the best action from the u. s. open tennis. horace star e got she on tech has advanced to the last 16 at the us open after beating lauren davis in straight sets. the american had little chance against the dominant world. number one. rafael middle is looking for a 5th us open title. he was a favorite against richard gasquet at natal, had played the frenchman 17 times previously in one every time when number 18 came

in straight sets. now, if you're heading to the beach any time soon, i'd like you to consider this. chances are they will be a shock. not too far away. sightings are becoming more frequent in waters around populated areas. the scientists say humans are not on the menu. footage, that's likely to make many viewers feel uneasy to say the least. a huge hammer had shock. right next we're swimmer at miami beach, scientists who track the ocean predators have discovered that situations like this . ok, a lot more often than you might think. despite the noise and pollution shocks don't seem to mind hanging out me a densely populated areas, we really thought they were because studies of like, big land predators have found that you know, walls and bears in kind of the big land. carnivores tend to avoid being around big

cities, and that's not what we found at all with the shots. in fact, i was down the 1st but in quite a lot of time. close to what we call like urban areas that really close to the metropolis. miami. in a study in florida, 3 different species of shark were attacked with small transmitters that emit ultrasonic waves. the researchers then placed listening stations under water to monitor the creditors movements over several years. the data they collected confirms previous findings, which found that humans are not really on the shock menu. the shots were cruising up and down the coast line in areas that, you know, there are people that been in the ocean. and i think, although this might make you a bit nervous to me, it just proves the point that sharp, you know, really don't want to bite people. and that, and back sharks, really tory people and tend to avoid them. the scientists say it's still unclear why the shocks were not infect repelled by the cities,

given the high levels of noise light and air pollution, they produce. one theory is that the marine predators have grown used to urban centers over time. another is that they are drawn to the dead fish and pots thrown into the water by people fishing. one way or another shocks are lot less interested in making a meal of us than you might think that such are up to date coming up next is for life season. a blue with
