7:02 am
was comp ah, military conflict within the premises of a nuclear facility. it doesn't take an expert to understand that that is a tremendously dangerous situation. it does, however, take one to assess just how big the danger is. a group of un inspectors spent the past 5 days at the upper regia nuclear power plant and is now concluded that conditions at the facility are untenable. calls for a safe zone around the plant grow louder and louder, but are likely to fall on deaf ears in the kremlin on nichol ferla, him, berlin, and this is the day ah, i worry, i will continue to be worried about the plans and feel we have
7:03 am
a situation which is more stated to this, or the cause of russian provocations is up, patricia plan to was one step away from a nuclear disaster to plan. and the physical integrity of the bumps has to be in by using several times. it continues its provocations up as upper region nuclear plan to create a threat of a man made disaster. the power plant. yes, that's the scariest. this is a reality that we, that we have to recover from this is something that's got not continue to happen. oh. also coming up on that day and trusts we trust or not, less trust officially takes over the reins from bars johnson. she bows to hit the ground running, but brits don't believe she'll be able to deliver on her promises. she's got a lot of work to do on that. to be honest, not much faith does. she will do it being a member of the team she was saying, deliver to live with deliver over and over again. a promise has been made to be
7:04 am
interesting to see whether school know she's able to do the roses. but if you've said a very large treaty, it pulls the united nation says urgent action is required to prevent a potentially catastrophic incident at this upper region. nuclear plant in ukraine, inspectors from the international atomic energy agency issue, the warning and a report on their recent inspection of the russian occupied plants. the experts were 1st able to access the site last week to assess the damage and working conditions their sins. russian troops took control of the facility early in the war . keith and moscow have accused each other of risking a nuclear disaster by continually shelling the site. well, in its report, the i a, a calls the current situation to add this upper region nuclear power plant untenable saying it is the 1st time in
7:05 am
a military conflict that it's occurring amid the facilities of a large established nuclear power program. a nuclear accident can have serious impacts within the country and beyond its borders. and it warn't. there is an urgent need for interim measures to prevent a nuclear accident arising from physical damage caused by military means. this can be achieved by the immediate establishment of a nuclear of safety and security protection zone. for you and security council has meant to discuss the situation at those upper region nuclear power plant. and the head of the international atomic energy agency ruffled grossey who led the team of inspectors there briefed council members on his report. he said the world was playing with fire and warrant that a catastrophic incident was possible. the physical attack, wittingly or unwittingly, the hits that this facility has received and that i could
7:06 am
personally see assess together with my experts is simply a unacceptable. 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, to the plant itself. that's bringing elena soak of a. she is the executive director of the vienna center for disarmament and non proliferation mozilla. welcome to the day. this report pains a truly troubling picture of the situation on the ground. what do you make of it? well, 1st of all, i want to applaud the i a and it's director john grossi or taking dean is actually
7:07 am
going into the active or zone to assess this teacher. and this is the 1st time we have an independent assessment of what it is taking place there. and they do report that there are compromises and sometimes very stressful situation and the nuclear o plan, which you're already heard, the director general. and we have main prior and the most troubling situation in my view and in the report, careful is 2 things. first of all, there continues to be selling, including the hiv, when they're inspectors are and the site. and 2nd, that the power lines continue outside power lines continue to be compromised and cut off there was another one ago and was still don't know whether the outside or
7:08 am
was connected. and the 3rd is a very stressful situation on which the i'm cranium, operators, and personnel on working there. so this 3 to me are the most concerning that. but he does love prayer presses, in course for the stablish ment of this safety and security protection zone around the power plan. i think it's a very important initiative, and we need to ensure that it does have a chance to be discussed and figured out how to establish said what yeah, these are one thing, sorry to interrupt you there would. how likely do you think we are to actually see hostility stopping in the area? it really depends on what the parameters of this protection though, would be,
7:09 am
and who would be the parties actually implementing that protection. because se, earlier suggestions that loaded by several countries, including the us and others, were to start the demo at the site and then rounded and rush them back from that. so that is clearly to me, it's not something that they are prepared to to agree on. but there could be, where are you building where in unprecedented situation, we've never had military conflict and wrong. they knew so where, where turn to the territory at the moment. and i don't know, i was actually skeptical it originally about the possibility of this mission to take place. but it did happen. and both russia and ukraine and the end agreed
7:10 am
to proceed. so i would, i would give it a chance, but it's certainly going to be in the effort. what more could the international community do to ease tensions around the plant? i think there should be a very strong voice coming from all countries. and now you're in security council person for even now, it continues discussion on the report and that proposed by the director john grossi. it would be extremely important to continue negotiations and consultations and keep possible in is open. one hope is the 1st and foremost the i present it is do remain at the nuclear power plant. they're only 2 inspectors counseling, but there is in town to keep them. and i also think that the initiative
7:11 am
and the energy with director general are currently in continuum color. do press. all right. part is he already started concentration. so do give us some glimpse of it's hard to predict it, but it is very worthy effort because indeed we're playing with the bar. is there a way to increase pressure on vladimir putin to maybe push forward with this, this idea of a security zone because he is, as, as you said, or his troops are playing with fire. but he has so far rejected. and every option that has been put on the table regarding these, these do demilitarization efforts around the area of upper region. how can we increase pressure and bring people to the table?
7:12 am
no pressure. but what i think that's it is actually in the russian interest to at least explore this over to unity and continue to negotiate. because if you think about it, the nuclear, a nuclear power plant is actually a part of the territory of russia occupying. and if something happens to the nuclear power plant, the power is kind of so you can provide the backup supply if you are human error. so now working on the stressful conditions, there isn't, doesn't recognize this is the russian territory. this is the ukraine and here it will read over. so i think it is in russian interest to seriously consider this proposal and work with the national community. how likely is that going to be
7:13 am
a uncharted territory? elena soak of an executive director of the center for disarmament and non proliferation. thanks for your time tonight. thank you. well, all eyes are on the nuclear plant, the battle rages on in many other parts of the country. ukrainian officials say 3 civilians are among the latest victims of russian missile attacks near the city of her keefe. ukraine. second largest city has seen constant shelling since the start of the conflict with what much of the fighting long focused on the east. now ukraine is reporting advances in the south where it launched along a way to counter offensive last week. the pentagon confirms that keeps troops have started re taking villages in the region around her son sheet by rockets again and again. how keith is ukraine's 2nd largest city,
7:14 am
its position in the east near the russian border. has made it a target throughout the wall. there was an explosion on dar apartment shook pieces of tile hit my child's back on the ceiling collapsed um my head. very thick smoke immediately filled 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 us still searching through the rubble for survivors of the attack on this apartment building in the city center. several people were killed in other strikes in the region and air raid sirens rang throughout ukraine on tuesday morning. but in the country south, keith says it's successfully pushing back. ukrainian troops launched a counter offensive last week and said they have already regained territory. this
7:15 am
video appears 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 war. ah, orest johnson and his wife carry leave number 10 downing street for the final time . it was the 1st act in a carefully choreographed handover of power that saw a live trust become britton's new prime minister. outside on the steps of the official residence, johnson sent his final good bye. ah good. hi. well, well this is, this is it quotes. it only a couple of hours i will be in our moral to see her majesty the queen and the torch
7:16 am
will finally be passed to a new conserved elidah. let me say the law like one of those booster rockets that is fulfilled its function and i will not be gently re entering the atmosphere and splashing down invisibly in some remote and obscure corner of the pacific. and i will be supporting this trust and the new government every step of the way. thank you very much. thank you. goodbye. thank you. or has johnson and liz trust then headed to scotland for the next part of their performance? they visited the queen at her residence at bell moral castle. johnson was in 1st to officially tender his resignation. he then laughs, no longer prime minister. and when he was gone truck
7:17 am
arrived at baltimore for her audience with the queen. and the british monarch formally invited her to form a new government. she then headed to her new official residency number 10 downing street, or she addressed the nation for the 1st time as prime minister in her speech. she praised her predecessor and bound to tackle the challenges facing britain had on i have just accepted her majesty the queen's kind invitation to full menu government . now is the time to tackle the issues that are holding brittenback. as prime minister, i will pursue 3 lead priorities. thusly, i will get written working again. secondly, i will deal hands on with the energy crisis cools by putin's will. thirdly, i will make sure that people can get doctors appointments, and the chest services they need. we will put all health service on uh,
7:18 am
putting i am determined to deliver. thank you. oh, and quinton peel is with me now to talk about the new british prime minister. he's an associate fellow with the europe program at the chatham house. think tank mister peel. good to see the list of promises is long. how will list trust go about delivering well, she's basically got to stand on their heads. most of the things that she promised during her campaign, she said she's going to go for tax cuts and no subsidies. in fact, she's going to have to have enormous subsidies to try and put a cat on the energy prices. and she's gonna have to spend a huge amount of money on the national health service on defense. so actually she's
7:19 am
going to be quite a spender and not a saver. she lost no time to re shuffle the cabinet. did she hers is very diverse, quite young, very much out of her own wing of the party. did you think the right team for the right ahead? well, it's certainly been criticized already as being quite light weight not particularly experienced. although in many ways it looks quite like the, the johnson government that it replaces. so there are quite a lot of people that were in the form of government. all their several heavy weights have gone, like the deputy prime minister, for example, dominic rub. and she's brought in people who were clearly her supporters. and it's quite clear that she's rewarding their loyalty. and the other most interesting thing is really that the 3 biggest jobs in government of all gone to members of ethnic minorities. you've got a black chancellor,
7:20 am
the exchequer and quasi grad chang. i'm a black foreign secretary in james, cleverly and british asian sewell, a brother, man, as the home secretary that's quite striking in terms of the normal male white cabinets that the british have seen. the conservative party is in a bad state bell, deeply divided. will she be able to get everyone to rally around her? you thank she's going to have a real struggle. i think, i mean this, this succession battle of the replacement of johnson has been a very miserable and bitter affair. they've been squabbling very openly and she didn't get a residing endorsement in her election. i mean, actually she didn't even get half the members of the conservative party to back her . and she got quite a poor sharing old. so for members of parliament. so she's gonna have quite
7:21 am
a struggle. it's possible that she may not last very long if she can't hold her party together. but she has a big majority in parliament, thanks to the majority that maurice johnson, one at the last election h t. c majority. which should see her through the danger being that when you got a big majority, people feel much more able to rebel against you. so she's gonna have to woo people quite happily assiduously. she's gonna have to work very hard at this. and as you perhaps heard from her speech, she's not a very persuasive sort of person. she's rather dull, very different to baris johnson in that way. she doesn't have any of his humor and he's flat like, let's zoom out of bed when does her appointment as prime minister mean for the you case position in the world? well, and i fear that it doesn't mean a huge amount of change. i mean,
7:22 am
she has made her name a bit of the foreign ministry as somebody who was tough towards the european union . she is the one who's the table, the legislation to scratch the so called northern ireland protocol, which is a vital piece of legislation to enable the whole trade to get to trade situation with the european union to work properly. if she's got a scrap that against the signing the forest johnson did of it, then that's going to poison relations with the european union. the question is, will she change her mind of the truth is we don't really know. this is a woman who looks on the one hand as a very i ideological sort of person. but on the other hand, she was once a robina, she wanted to stay of the you. and then she became a fierce brakes. if somebody wanted to leave the you and i think we're going to
7:23 am
have to wait and see how she works out in power. quentin peel of chatham has pleasure speaking to you tonight. thank you. ah, israeli president, you tuck hertzog, has called for a closer ties between germany and israel. he made the remarks to lawmakers in the german parliament in a speech marking the 50th anniversary of the munich olympics massacre and 97211 israeli team members died after palestinian militants storm their compound in the olympic village. on monday, german presidents on fantastic. my admitted that germany had failed to protect the israeli athletes. after his speech and the german parliament, hertzog visited the former nazi concentration camp bergen belsen alongside his german counterpart. israel and germany's presidents paid their respects to the

nazi regime. a mere 7 hotmail, whether we wanted or not, on a shot, the memory of the shore is a deep part of our identity as a nation. this eco, a people who carries in its historic memory such a dork, abysmal impossible experience is not a people like all peoples outside and my mother hats. og state visit to germany, also marked the 50th anniversary of another horror that israel can't forget. the munich olympics massacre a day earlier, germany apologized from his handling a terror attack in the olympic village in 1972, which left 11 israeli team members dead at the hands of palestinian terrorists. at bergen belsen germany's president warned that his country must remain vigilant against anti semitism. again,
7:26 am
faced with the graves of bergen belsen dead over them and the millions murdered in the holocaust in every form of anti 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. ah, a huge crowd. welcome britons, prince harry and his wife megan markelle as they arrived and decided off here and germany for an event one year before the 2023. in victor's games, which the city is hosting this year. the in victor's games are an international multi sports event for injured soldiers, founded by harry in 2014, he himself served in the british army and was stationed in afghanistan. he remains
