for 3 years, and that would change the world forever. but jones journey around the world starts september 7th on d w. ah ah, does this do that? we news like from berlin, the you ones, nuclear watchdog calls for a safe zone around ukraine suffer regia, nuclear plants, and warns that ongoing showing poses a constant threat to nuclear safety as russian and ukrainian forces battle nearby.

also coming up with his out the door today, we are receiving a final warning, chilling words from the un about water and food shortages. and so malia were drought and conflicts have combined to leave half the population facing extreme hunger. and then the u. k. las truck begins naming her cabinet after being appointed as brittany new prime minister. she's promised a bold plan to rebuild the economy and address, storing energy cost plus thousands of homes and businesses are under water after $1.00 soon flooding and pakistan full here about efforts to drain off the biggest fresh water lake in the country and divert dangerous overflow away from populated area. ah,

i'm the coff released to our viewers on p b. s in the united states and around the world. good to have you with us. the united nations nuclear watchdog is calling for a security zone to be established around ukraine's and battles. upper region nuclear power plant. in a report, the i a said it was gravely concerned about the situation at the plant describing conditions as untenable as comes after a team of it's experts visit at the site last week to assess the damage and conditions for the workers there. since russian troops took control of the facility early in the war eve and moscow have accused each other of risking a radiation disaster by shelling near the site. and a virtual address to the un security council. i. h. e. raphael, grossey warrant of a potential catastrophe. saying the plant has sustained significant damage the physical attack, we'd be, or unwittingly the hits that this facility has received.

and that i could personally see assess together with my experts, is simply an acceptable we are playing with fire and something very, very catastrophic could take place. this is why in our report, we are proposing the establishing the establishment story of a nuclear safety and security protection zone limited to the plant itself. and home. more on the story i'm join now from los angeles by not many mesh county. he's an engineering professor at the university of southern california. he's also worked as a safety inspector at nuclear power plants around the world, including jer, noble and focus shima. so glad you can join us tonight. mr. mesh conti. this report paint a troubling picture of the situation on the ground. what do you make of it?

thanks for having me. 3rd, going to the right there holding for this morning. it's a very sober report. i'm as director general for groceries, whom i think deserves an over piece price. hopefully it's very serious issue. playing with fire is up and if you really read the district or what is written between the lines, i think is the more important what is written here. because the report is very conservative, but what is written between the lines i think are mostly concerned about that. is the pillar tree, about this stuff, condition operating stuff on the potential for human are you to fatigue a stress? there are some very, a lot of being forced to me on believe about pressure constant to stress and the potential for human error under extremely stressful condition. all of these are,

unfortunately a recipe for disaster. a big concern for the workers at the plant actually is the fact that the occupier seem to not know what they're dealing with. how big of a risk factor is that that's a very important issue. in fact, as we speak, the un security council meeting is going going on. you ok, ambassador. so this operators are not workers anymore. there are hostages that they work at the gun point that i cannot agree more with that characterization. we do also know that the buildings, housing, fresh, a nuclear feel as well as radioactive waste or damage. how worrisome is that, in your opinion? so it's a very so i didn't even talk about the infrastructure, a physical damage to the plan. as you said through the, those facilities and also the cost of the upside are,

all of these are very important that concerned me. what, what is going on at un security council? being honest with you, it's a little bit disappointing for them. this is that they're meeting of the un security cancer, which is going on. this is unfortunately, again for the lack of better than with all due respect for these distinguished ambassadors over there. this is the 3rd act of the theater off the up. so i think the un security cancer needs to be more proactive. they need to empower a commission, something that they did that they are g 9940 iraq. at that time they called that united nations monitoring verification and inspection commission. and a need to really develop this thing and kind of it's r e activity in its core is a technical inspector, then a technical assistance agency. what we are dealing with is

a piece making an a political negotiation which is above and beyond. the capability of the un wants to establish a security zone around the nuclear plant, which is of course, something that would be very desirable. how, how much leverage do you think they have in pressing forward with this suggestion? the ideal se demilitarization of separate regime was originated by secretaries job on showing you what you had as almost a month ago. and you beat you actually russia for says, a russian ambassador rejected the idea came marketing, the 1st security council meeting, 2nd, security johnson. and again, right now, there is a euphemism there are being using, it's called protection. so i'm being honest with you. i don't think that the russian federation will accept that protection zone,

or neutralization as being proposed by a year, which is a very noble, i'm very logical demand. my humble assessment is we need to really to elevate this drug to escalate that to the level of the political negotiation and security. johnson needs to be more proactive rather than sitting down and listening to their pontification and this fiery passion to speech us. it's always difficult with russia as a veto power, and the security council is that national mascot team. any thanks. thank you very much. he crane says 3 civilians have been killed by russian missile attacks near the eastern city of har. keith ukraine. second largest city has seen constant shelling since the start of the conflict with much of the fighting focused on the east. but ukraine is reporting progress on its counter offensive in the south

heat by rockets again and again. how key is ukraine's the 2nd largest city? it's position in the east near the russian border has made it a target throughout the war. there was an explosion on dar apartment shook pieces of tile hit my child's back on the ceiling collapsed um my head very take smoke immediately fill the room. we wanted to get ice, but our door was blocked. it was blown into the corridor. ha, ha ha, keeps governor said rescue as a still searching through the rubble for survivors of the attack on this apartment building in the city center. several people were killed in all the strikes in the region and air raid sirens rang throughout ukraine on tuesday morning. but in the country, south cave says it's successfully pushing back. ukrainian troops launched

a counter offensive last week and say they have already regained tarrot tree. this video and he is to show soldiers raising a ukrainian flag in a small town in the house on region that had been held by russia since early on in the wall. a short while ago i spoke to him. i know shes our corresponded and key of and i put it to her that the ukrainian counter offensive in the south seemed to be gaining traction. exactly. in fact, a counter offensive in the south thought it early july, so it's nothing new. what is new though? is that it has been a week or so that he had, he has made significant a games in this house. i would love to tell you more about those gains hub, but the situation being so critical as so sensitive. there is no regular updates as to which villages exactly have been liberated as to where exactly the army is, are fighting against the russian occupants. so it's all a very,

very sensitive topic here. there are a pictures or are there are some videos on a social media, despite the request of the ukrainian army itself, a to a, not a talk about is on public media. so as to not give clues or to the russian army about what you know about the situation are despite that we can see some videos day show destructions of ammunition. they pose russia nomination, they pose. they also see a show, a lot of at russian tanks, russian equipment is being destroyed on the side of the road and it looks like it's going oh, well that is gaining traction on the ukrainian side with ukraine. and president vladimir zaleski even saying, are talking about the liberation of 2 villages near have son ad that finally ukraine on the flags are floating where they should be again. and perhaps the biggest gave away that a decent counter offensive ease going well for your question is the fact that

russia has paused it's prospect of a wanting to hold a referendum in occupied her son. it wanted to do the same as it did in crimea in 2014, holding a referendum to official eyes, the annexation of the region. it cannot do doubt at the moment because of the counter offensive. i was emma, shes speaking to us earlier from keith. the united nation says that in the 1st half of this year alone, more than 700 children have died and emergency nutrition centers across somalia. the country is now on the brink of famine. almost 8000000 people and that's about half the population are facing crisis hunger levels. the worst area is the buyer region. in the south, the u. n says, barring a massive influx of assistance, that region is likely to see a full scale famine in the coming months. southern somalia, this is what the worst drought in decades looks like. people displaced by climate

change and conflict. their only source of water is this distribution center in a displaced persons camp with the united nations. humanitarian agency has been sounding the alarm for some time. i've been shocked to my call these past few days by the level of pain and suffering. we see so many somalis enduring famine is up the door. and today we are receiving a final warning. it's been for failed rainy seasons in a row. and now the u. n says the 5th one is on the way, but the problems in somalia run even deeper decades of civil conflict, mass displacement, and one of the lowest standards of living in the world. what's happening in the

horn of africa is a threat to a way of life, which is sustained families and communities for generations. it's not just a lack of rain for seasons, for many families, but it's an end to the way they've lived. a search and food prices worldwide, and a grain shortage triggered by the war and ukraine, have made the situation worse. this entire region is on the brink of extreme hunger, waiting in vain for the drought to end. earlier we spoke to petro wilton with the united nations world food program in nairobi. he was just back from neighboring somalia, and we asked him, which groups would be most affected by a full scale family. it's going to affect the most vulnerable 1st and that is young children. it is the elderly, it is those living with disabilities. it is those who been internally displaced by conflict, but also now by this terrible drive across 4 consecutive season. wsp we've been

saying for months we cannot wait for a declaration assignment because we know from the post by then we'll be too late in 2011. the last major famine in somalia that claimed more than a quarter 1000000 lives. half of the people who passed away had done it before the official declaration. and we haven't been waiting. we've scaled up our assistants, food and nutrition assistance in somalia to the highest levels ever. we more than doubled the number of people we've, we've reached from april true to july, but it's imperative right now that we are able, that we get the funding, the resources to maintain and further increase that scale up. because as we heard martin griffith say, just yesterday, we are in the last minutes of the 11th hour. we have to stop this, right. and let's get you up to speed now on some of the other stories making

headlines around the world today. nasa has released new pictures of the tarantula nebula captured by the james web space telescope. these images show young stars distant background galaxies as well as detailed structure and composition of the nebulous gas and dust. the nebula lies in the large mega land cloud galaxy, 161000 light years away. hundreds of student protesters clashed with police outside of the presidential palace in santiago, chile, the protesters are demanding more resources for education. just days ago, voters and sheila rejected a new progressive constitution and a referendum that would have included education reforms in the u. k. new prime minister list trust has begun announcing her cabinet earlier today. she gave her 1st speech as prime minister, pledging to boost the economy,

tackle the energy crisis, and improve the country's national health service trust promise, tax cuts and security at home and abroad. britain's 4th, conservative prime minister, and 6 year she's facing a raft of challenges, including a cost of living crisis, labor unrest, and storing energy prices. only thing that we called let's listen into some of what she had to say earlier. we will transform britain into an aspiration nation with high paying jobs, safe streets, and what everyone. everyone has the opportunities they deserve. i will take action this day and action every day to make it happen. i will take action this week to deal with energy bills and to secure all future energy supply. earlier i spoke to our correspondent in london, bigot mother and asked her about les tress picks for her cabinet.

was really striking is that the top many of the top positions are held by ethnic minority and he's so it's not a cabinet full of white men, the pm and also the deputy prime minister are both female. so that is something that is very, very striking. the other thing that, that you can say is that it's, it's, it's a cabinet that's mostly consisting of supporters of list trust. so she had been urged by by members of her own party by a conservative observance, to build a cabinet of all talent and also reach out to people who haven't previously supported her, but she hasn't on that. so it's mostly allies, mostly from the right wing of to party and also mostly breaks a tears. so it looks like a like a cabinet that almost that she's a, she's, she's build in her image when it comes to their, their, their political convictions. let's talk about support a little more because she was elected by 80000 conservative party members. that's

hardly representative of the population. how does the rest of the country feel about her? well, yes, that's the thing. i mean, she's been just her just elected by the conservative party and the rest of the country needs to be convinced that indeed she is the right person to lead the country out of the many crisis that the britain is facing. at the moment. we're really wages of falling inflation is, is skyrocketing up to almost 20 percent forecasted in the next month. so on top of that, the country is facing a cost of living crisis, which is exacerbated by really high energy bills and lis stross as somebody who has been out in the cabinet for quite a while. but she's not that well known to a lot of british people. her profile is not very high with fatal and conservative party, as such, is also trailing behind the opposition. labor party and distrust is also trailing

behind when she's being compared to kiss darma, who's the leader of the opposition. so she's not doing too well in the polls at the moment. however, now is had time to shine. she is the p. m, so she can really set the agenda and she can make herself known to the british people. all right, she's after a difficult start. forget math in london. many thanks. israel's president is a cared soccer is on a state visit to germany, or he has called for closer ties between the 2 nations. his trip marks the 50th anniversary of the munich olympics massacre were 11 israeli. t members were killed . he also visited the former nazi concentration camp bag and barrels and with his german counterpart found quite a steinway. israel in germany's presidents paid their respects to the victims of the holocaust at bergen belsen israeli president issac hertz august. father helped

semitism that sadly still exists in germany is an alarm signal for our country. the visit ended at a memorial for one of the most famous victims of the holocaust and frank murdered like her sister just months before the liberation of the camp. a reminder of the terrible suffering that these 2 nations are determined will never be repeated. august on the authorities in the south of the country are trying everything they can to prevent pakistan. light as the lake from overflowing and swamping nearby towns, water levels on lake mon char is said to be dangerously high. falling record monsoon flooding satellites show the scale of the disaster following a severe drought monsoon rains and melting glaciers have submerged a 3rd of pakistan. millions of lost their homes. where this report now from pakistan's heart had sinned province. rashana lee and his son, the mom, have lost everything. they put their savings into building
