ah ah ah ah, this is dw news live from berlin, you ends nuclear watchdog horns military safe zone is needed around your clients is that for asia nuclear plant, we are playing with by the head of the international atomic energy agency address is the un security council forming that is shelling around the facility doesn't end

something catastrophic could happen. who also coming up monsoon flooding and pakistan forces a difficult decision. huge lake threatens to overflow and authorities have chosen to spam old, populated areas. as rule residents pay, the prize and german law make his pay tribute to the last later of the soviet union, mikhail gorbachev. the man credited with bringing down the iron curtain and allowing east and west germany to become wanted. ah, i am rebecca writ his welcome to the program. the united nations secretary general says russia and ukraine must cease military activity, davis operation, nuclear plant, and a gray on a security zone. antonio guiterres warned that any damage could spell catastrophe for the region, and beyond his words echoed those of the head of the un nuclear watchdog. it's

rafael glossy that time speaking to the security council that his 1st time reporting on what he seen with his own eyes at this apparition, nuclear plant room. 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, 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 overworked and communication with the outside world is difficult and he says military vehicles are getting in the way. our concrete recommendation these regard is that the military vehicles on equipment that are currently present in buildings inside nuclear buildings on this site be removed from the russian

ambassador accused keith of shelling the plant and said there could be serious consequences. a griffin reserved to look the responsibility, lie solely with care. 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 would use the 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 council, russia and western nations at loggerheads once again with no end to the conflict in sight. to re crown face the former head of the i. e. s. verification and security policy coordination office. little earlier, i asked him to assess the danger at the plan, given the latest reports on renewed shelling nearby. well nuclear power plant, so not really designed to withstand shilling or any sustain the military operations

. one reactor was operating at that ratio because the backup power line had been disrupted. so the loss of power is the really dangerous situation, although at salary here they do have 20 backup diesel generators that can provide power for at least 250 hours. how confident are you that the necessary steps will be taken to make sure to ensure that the plant is kept safe? i think it's hard to say at the moment, i don't think anyone has any confidence because the shelling is still continuing. despite the use of the director general, and despite the report that he issued yesterday. so for the time being, i think if the situation is quite dire, ukraine has suggested that un peacekeepers be stationed there. if that's something that could potentially work. that would be an interesting solution to have us

escape on the side to monitor and report if any shelling takes place and also to assist with the demilitarization of this apparatus. yep. our plans and the withdrawal of any and all military forces within the territory. appreciate our time. there have been some experts who have said that it may not be as catastrophic as the warning suggests, but others of course, raising alarm bells. what is the worst case scenario we're looking at here in your opinion? well, i tend to be on the side of those who are more cautious. does that raise? yep. our plan has that 3 backup systems for emergency or cooling. they also have multiple emergency power supplies. but should any one of the reactive or the spent fuel on get a direct hit from a large missile then we could have lost

a coolant which could expose nuclear material to the air which could result in some release of radioactivity. and what would that mean? are we looking at something similar to, than the nuclear disaster that happened at a novel i don't think that that noble of fukushima, nuclear accidents are my model or what might happen as a ratio. but nonetheless, we, it's difficult to speculate exactly why nuclear security aspect tourney. rafa speaking to us from vienna, thanks very much for your time. thank you. on is catching up to speed down some other stories making headlines around the world. the baltic states of lithuania, latvia, and estonia have reached agreement to restrict the entry of russian citizens as darney had already been russians entering as of last month. but this coordinated agreement is a new development. is a leader with russian president vladimir putin has told an economic forum in

vladivostok that the developing world has been cheated by a landmark grain deal struck by the united nations, ukraine and russia. he said, exports were not going to the poorest countries as was the goal. he also called for more cooperation with asian countries in the middle. the death toll from a typhoon that head south korea has written to 10 local media, showed rescue as recovering bodies from a flood of cop hog. the rescue team also discovered 2 survivors who'd huddled in an air pocket for 14 hours. the storm swept through the coastal city of po, hang, and the south of the country on tuesday. pakistan's prime minister says parts of his country, i just like a c following devastating monsoon floods shape as sharif was speaking after he visited the southern province of sind. that's way authorities as struggling to prevent pakistan's largest fresh water light from overflowing. workers have breached a dike of lake mansion to try to control the waters, but it means nearby villages have been inundated for 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 shore and southern pakistan is close to overflowing, putting hundreds of thousands of people in the area at risk. if breach occurs over here. so wholesale and city it will be dawn. so this address ship is stuff we are trying to contain it. we are fighting since last. what did ours engineers made it difficult decision to cut into an embankment to direct to 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

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's come to help us in that way. most of us are staying under the open sky only on the essay. bitten 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 higher because there's no replacement feel. hi. there is no peace. there are lots of mosquitoes and it's very hot. we've asked for an electric fan, but that's impossible. the children's education has been stuck to getting food is also very difficult. we can't even cut because decimal to everywhere. the decision

to divert the flood waters has spared the larger cities near lake mancha, 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. why the rain has stopped in some parts of the country. the threat posed by the france. haven't my asked rafe javert? can i have the charity great water h about the biggest risks for people in the affected areas? well, obviously the short term needs as was shown by your report is around shelter and food. but most importantly, i think we're trend sanitation and hygiene products are very much in demand because it is risk of diseases. in fact, either we have seen areas, we are the number of water warranties uses. malaria has gone up tremendously. but i think this is just the tip of the iceberg. because you're also looking at some

medium term and long term issues that these people are going to phased and even ones a flood. what receives the workers education system will be contaminated and you know, people, if they don't, if they're not decontaminated, if they use this then you know that it's will be much higher. but also, i think from an economic terms, the, you know, the, these people are dependent on agriculture for the life due to switch be through people. and in a few weeks time, the inter crock of cropping time will come up. and if they don't crop on time, you know, you're looking at, you know, medium to food security issues as well. yeah. that fed security, definitely an issue. but if we go back to the health care pakistan's, health care system was already overstretched. and under founded before the floods hit, are people going to be able to get the help that they need? yellow, you just come out of the call when we have issues with polio. so yes, anyone whatever infrastructure we had, you know, that had also been destroyed. you know, i was looking at, you know,

some of the reports. we've talked about health center. i mean, i visited some areas, we had the local hospital to veto what really need. so you and the whatever services we had that had been effected by it as well. so yes, you know, chronic issue has now been exhibited by this lead as well, i guess on getting enough help from the international community. no, i think you know, it's far less than what is needed on the ground. we are now in 2 weeks into the situation, but these are just, you know, trickling in government is trying to establish coordination mechanism. then these are being used at the local level as well as provincial national level. but this picture we are seeing on the ground is that yes, you know, the board from the international community in the short term is law rosa. i think, you know, in the company and rehabilitation fees, you know, it will take a long time for the country to come out of it. so there are aspects as well that in

the short term, we need support. but also the medium and long term of support we needed by the government, as well as by the people i wanted to ask you about that the scale of this disaster, how long will it take will will pack and be able to recover from what we did rico or you know, 1st from 2005 earthquake and then 2010 fluids. and then after 2010, we had flooded in 11 and 12 as well. and even some communities are still recovering from that. it's, this is going to be a long haul. and what, what we would expect the international community is not just to look at the short term support now in terms of response and recovery, but also in the long run. you know, how can the people in government focus on be supported for example, to, you know, you know, a lot of our budget to go into debt servicing. so donors should be able to come forward and at least take out the interest or, or, or restructure the, the,

the depth, the buckets down those to those donor that is happening. so we had threats and i think whatever the resources that can be spent now with the go for the government and people to be able to respond. and also to be able to support and rehabilitation we will use will end up talking about next. you know, 56 years it'll take at least 2 to come back to some level of normalcy for us. long road ahead iris java con country director of water. i thank you for your time today . thank you. thank you for really chevy. all my kids have been paying tribute to the last later of the soviet union, mikhail gorbachev. during a commemorative session of parliament, the bonus tongues president bell boss delivered a speech in his honor. and the parliament observed a minute's silence the gorbachev who was buried in moscow last week go which helps reform policies lead to the end of the cold war. and the re unification of east and

west germany able boss reflected on gorbachev, legacy president. gorbachev. but among the president, gorbachev was a man of peace from beth. he changed the world for the better him. after moodily, he made possible what had seemed unthinkable for decades in a peaceful end to the cold war and to the division of our country and our continent . we germany saw it as much to st. mikhail gorbachev for future, for don. database political correspondent need a hazard follow the events in the buddhist time for us to day. nina, very unusual. i would have thought for a german parliament to remember a foreign leaders so extensively what was said about that and also what's happening in russia today. you know, i really did ask myself at the same question, have they ever done that for a foreign leader? because we know for a german, a heads of government, for example, we know that they do commemorative events like that. but even the buddhist talk

archive themselves. we call them, they didn't have any records, they couldn't tell us straight away. so i, i think a unique events. and this is of course, because of coverage of massive roll. and he is the revered figure here in germany because of his policies, his openness, his friendship with the chancellor, him cool, and all these things lead to that path that then became german reunification. so germans are eternally grateful. and essentially, also across the political spectrum for his role in that. so maybe the goodness, i could have done it any way, but the fact that he died this year also brings it home even more just how much current russia is different from the soviet union in the late eighty's and but of course got much of and put in a completely different people's, the babel boss had a very strong message also to days kremlin, and said, and you've destroyed everything that gorbachev stood for. and that is

a tragic mistake that you're turning your back on. these are things. yeah, that comparison was very clear. but the war in ukraine and its ramifications here in germany were of course, also featured in the debate that followed the commemoration event. let's hear from chancellor all of sholtes and the opposition. later feeders, mats we have been kinder and tried. we will not make any decisions that cause rushes criminal war against ukraine to escalate into a war between russia and nato. good swiss, not on crossland, abbey abandoned us more than what we will do, what is necessary? these are, it is exactly along that policy line as closely embedded in the alliance with our friends around the world that we support ukraine and will do so for as long as is necessary. a bonus cancer if you're missing the slider fished in. mr. chancellor, we regret to say that we cannot trust your assurances. football maybe in the line. siemens along with the purely financial questions of equipping the german military of the you and your government are not fulfilling the clear will of the german

parliament to supply ukraine. finally, with an adequate measure of heavy weapons and often, salvador, an surprisingly imposing view. there, of course, from government and opposition, but germany support for ukraine has been quite contentious. is germany doing what it can all it can to support you crime. there was a minor diplomatic route between villain and keys. let's face it because of germany's reluctance essentially to send heavy weapons to ukraine. they've now done that. they've for example and delivered 10 houses and also 15 ad fence tanks amongst other things. the ukranian prime minister came to berlin last weekend, and he thanked all officers and said the germans had made progress. and, but of course he wants more. and amongst other things, ukraine wants leopard 2 tanks. and those are combat tanks from the german bonus that will have shows has sofa said no. and also the, and the advent system, the iris t that germany has promised for models of

a prime minister. me holler said they need 12. so this is something what will have shows appears to be standing on the break. still, he reiterated again today in the bonus tag that he cannot go it alone. germany cannot go it alone. it is watched extremely closely also in moscow by a russian propagandist. what does germany do, what is germany doing? so as soon as germany becomes too active, this will be seen as a confrontation in moscow. and we'll actually doesn't want that role. he doesn't want the conflict to extend to a conflict between nato essentially and russia. so that is something and then other people are also saying, well, he does have a very left wing anti weaponry group in his own party. and they are also having an influence on him. and we're probably also going to have to assume that the german government is also still hoping that one day putin will realize that he cannot win . and that we, he will show some willingness to step back from his ambitions in ukraine and then

they need to be ready to have a plan. is it dw political correspondent, nina, how the, thanks very much. i'll to west africa now where ganna is stepping up security in its border region. i made growing concerns of janice finance. that's due partly to an insurgency led by groups linked to al qaeda. and the so called islamic state that insurgency has spread from molly to neighboring bacchanal. faso, the crisis has displaced more than 2000000 people there with many of them now laying south into garner. as attacks, continue deputies at maxwell souk visited a camp hosting refugees close to the border. sophia, so i do go arrived indian camp in ghana early august. the poor is she's cooking will be here all the new today, but at least she feel safe. here. she escaped with their children in booking of her . so where do you, how do i? tox? i intensifying, sophia says her live, you send
