ah, shuddering the glass ceiling, women in architecture dismiss has to be really, really good. start september 30th on d. w. ah, ah, this is d w. news coming to you live from berlin. the you ends, nuclear, watchdog warns and military safe zone is needed around ukraine's apparition nuclear plat playing by the head of the international atomic energy agency addresses. the un security council warning that if shelling

a round up facility doesn't end something catastrophic could occur. also coming up, authorities in pakistan make it difficult choice as the country's largest fresh water lake threatens to burst its banks. rural residents are left dealing with the decision to flood their villages in hopes of saving more populated areas. ah. hello, i'm terry martin. good to have you with us, the united nations general secretary, secretary general antonio guitars says russia and ukraine must cease military activity near this operation nuclear plant and agree on a security zone. he warned that any damage could quote, spell catastrophe for the region and beyond. his words echoed those of the head of the un nuclear watchdog reporting to the un security council. it's rafael glossy is

3rd time speaking to the security council that his 1st time reporting on what he seen with his own eyes at this apparition, nuclear plant. we are playing with fighter and something very, very catastrophic could take place. this is why in our report, we are proposing the establishing the establishment, sorry, of a nuclear safety and security protection zone. grossey says it's not possible to work normally and safely at the plant. it's short staffed, the staff, it does have her overworked and communication with the outside world is difficult and he says military vehicles are getting in the way. our concrete recommendation in this regard is that the military vehicles and equipment that are currently present in buildings inside new care buildings. on this side, be removed from the russian ambassador accused key of shelling the plant and said

there could be serious consequences of this miserable to look the responsibility lie solely with keith. it's western supporters and all those in the security council who don't have the courage to call things by their name and stop the reckless actions against this power plant. you will be useless for the loose, despite russia, song and dance here today to avoid acknowledging responsibility for its actions. russia has no right to expose the world to unnecessary risk. and the possibility of nuclear catastrophe. nothing new at the security cancer, russia and western nations at loggerheads once again with no end to the conflict in sight. they w mathias burling, a joys me now from cheer. but he has, is there any indication that the warring parties are willing to comply with you and demands to secure this operation nuclear plant? what russia would have 1st to remove its military equipment from the plant that's

been stated very clearly in the report. and it has several times said that it is not willing to do so. has it also stated that the presence of its military forces there was actually making the plant safer? which is, of course, if we see all the fighting happening around there and the, and the dangers that military's proposed. there has been refuted by the international atomic energy authority. so a, there are no such undertakings. i don't see any, any way that this would happen. if they would be willing, then we would have to talk about what guarantees ukraine would be giving. but i don't see that anything like that is happening now. i might be wrong, but i don't see that this will be full. but he has talked to us about ukraine's counter offensives. we know the president zelinski met with his top military leaders last night. what can you tell us about those? the offensives in the south and east so we have heard several

news during the past few days about the counter offensive in the south taking shape . it's still early to say to talk about whether it can succeed or not. but we have seen that the ukrainian military seems to be applying a lot of pressure in the south, and there have been a some successes, some villages taken back under control by the ukrainians. um, but what is new now is that we have also news from the east, especially from the heart of region that there is an offensive going on there. there might be several reasons for that. first of all, i mean there have been pushes or like pressure applied to these uh, parts of the frontline before, but one thing my, one of the reasons for starting this now or for pushing harder now might be that the ukraine wants to prevent russia from moving equipment and soldiers from the north, from the east to the south,

and that's why they might not be attempting to break through there. but they might want just want to keep them engaged. but he has thank you so much. i correspond mathias spelling of their in kia sketchup on a couple of other stories making headlines around the world. today. the u. s. has started a massive roll out of new cove at 19 vaccines designed for both the original strain of corona virus and all mc wrong variance. government advisors said that in addition to the new boosters, it was likely the annual vaccination shots for coven would become the norm. similar to regular flu, vaccinations, and california authorities say 2 people have died in a wildfire southeast of los angeles. that's in addition to, to other deaths from dozens of blazes in the u. s. state over the labor day. holiday weekend. more than 4000 firefighters are battling the 14 largest fires emitter,

brutal heat. pakistani authorities are struggling to prevent the country's largest fresh water lake from overflowing and adding to the misery of millions affected by flooding. workers have breached a dyke of lake. munch are to try to control the overflow, but that means nearby villages have been inundated, while more densely populated areas have been spared. for now, pakistan's largest fresh water lake keeps getting bigger. fed by months of rain, lake mon char, in southern pakistan is close to overflowing, putting hundreds of thousands of people in the area at risk. if there's over here. so wholesale entity, it, it would be dawn. so the situation is stuff we are trying to convey in it. we're fighting since last. what da da engineers made it difficult decision to cut into an embankment to direct the flood away from the most populated areas and flood dozens

of nearby villages instead. authority say the emergency breach has already displaced a 100000 people. but local reporting suggest the number could be much higher. many who fled say they haven't received any help from the government. dominic, debbie bung. when the water breached the lake, we got scared and left our village and belongings going forward again. we took our children and ran and came here that i get one day. we arrived at 2 in the morning one and it's been 3 days and nobody has come to help us in that way. most of us are staying under the open sky, only on the is a bit and on their own and in harm's way. and no one knows for how long living in makeshift camps on higher ground, the displaced face a range of health risks, such as water born and skin diseases. say experts that bad

but the children missed the home because there's no replacement feel. hi. there is no peace. there are lots of mosquitoes, an it's very hot. we've asked for an electric fan, but that's impossible. the children's education has been stopped to getting food is also very difficult. we can't even cut because decimal to every way. the decision to divert the flood waters has spared the larger cities near lake mon char, for now, but at great human cost elsewhere. but with more rain expected to fall this month, pakistan's disastrous summer might not be over yet. springing under ish, la gary, here he is. with united nations children's fund unicef, he joins us from mar, forecasts in pakistan's, southeastern sind province. thanks for taking time to join us. now you've been touring areas impacted by the floods describe the situation for us. well, thank you terry. i have been in 3 districts out of the many infected in this

province right now, which is the most effective province of the country. why i have seen hundreds and thousands of people and the people on the road sides. i'm very where i go, where every township i visit its water on both sides of the road and its just people sitting on the road side waiting for help. there is, of course, certain there are certain camps that have been set up their accounts, but there are filled, there are no, no more capacity in that in those camps. the more camps are still being set up. a lot of work is being done, but there is still so much more to be done. and i see hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of children without food, without, without teen water. there is this, the stagnant war, flood water lakes, as i've been calling them around the, around the province and somewhere there are 6 feet deep. somebody there are 5 feet and cities where you just where i just mentioned the months or late this, the city surrounding the monthly, i can try and so many of the city the entirely drowned and there is,

there is danger to me. so what we see now is just women and children who are waiting for whatever they can get food, nutrition, health related services. pregnant ladies are up and women are still waiting for any services. and there are men and families and communities who are in the camps on the road side, whatever's coming their way. they're just now your organization specializes in helping children. in these situations, they're among the most vulnerable. are they getting the help they need for the most part? well, the people, i mean we are the organizations or whoever on ground they're trying their best unit of is also trying our best we have brought in just just by just 2 days ago, we bought the 32 metric tons of age, which i replied. that is now handed over to the government is going to the people we are trying more to get more aid and more supplies. it's more about supplies right now so that we can also get other supplies into the hands of the people who

are most in need. but as i said, it's just, i mean the effort is, is gradually reaching as many people as it can reach. and there are so many people out there still still, it's still on the move still stranded in the flooded areas. they're still hard to read, so we need more help. now, official say a 3rd of the country has been flooded. over 1300 people are confirmed dead millions of homes destroyed. you think pakistan will ever be the same it's going to be a difficult, difficult journey for this country. it's going to take years to come back to at least even the point where we were before this flood and even that was not an entirely ideal point. of course the system in terms of so many things, challenges for children, women i can speak for it's just that it's, it's definitely not going to be the same for this country, but we, this is the country for the people. the volunteer effort has been great and the

support that, that the global community providing is good right now, but more is needed. but yes, absolutely. it is going to be a difficult time. and regard with unicef and sin province, pakistan. thank you so much. now to the u. k, and newly appointed prime minister liz truss gets to work today when she sits down for an inaugural cabinet meeting and later phases. questions in parliament, harper speech as prime minister. she promised to tackle a host of challenges including the cost of living crisis, public sector unrest, and soaring energy pressures. walking into a multi pronged crisis. but the you case, 4th prime minister in 6 years is undeterred. we will transform britain into an aspiration nation with high paying jobs, say street,
