so much to lose shattering the glassy with women in architecture to smooth this have to be really, really good. start september 30th on d, w. ah ah ah, this is dw news live from berlin, b u n's. nuclear watchdog warns a military safe zone is needed around to ukraine's as operation nuclear plants. gap claim, which by the head of the international atomic energy agency addresses the un security council. warning that if shall leave around, the facility does not end something catastrophic could occur. also coming up on the

shell monsoon flooding in pakistan forces a difficult decision. a huge lake threatens to overflow and authorities have chosen to spare more populated areas as rural residents pay the price. plus the german lawmakers pay tribute to the last leader of the soviet union, the kyle gorbachev. the man credited for his role in bringing down the iron curtain and allowing east and west germany to become one. ah. hello, i am clare richardson, thanks much for joining us. we start in ukraine where local officials say russia has again shelled the area around this operation nuclear power plant. this a day after the united nations secretary general said russia and ukraine must cease military activity near the facility and agree on

a security zone. antonio guitar has 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 raphael grossey, 3rd time speaking to the security council, but his 1st time reporting on what he's seeing with his own eyes at the upper region nuclear plant, 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. coffee says it's not possible to work normally and safely at the plant. it's short staffed, the staff. it does have an 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 and equipment that are

currently present in buildings inside new buildings on the site. the remove, the russian ambassador accused of shelling the plant and said that could be serious consequences of this is the responsibility lies solely with key f. it's west and support isn't all those in the security council who don't have the courage to call things by the name and stop the reckless actions against this power plant will be used for delays 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 a nuclear catastrophe. nothing new at the security can't. so russia and western nations at loggerheads once again with no end to the conflict insight. and our correspondent mateus bowling joins me now from here. marty has this highly anticipated report from the i a is out this week i it wasn't easy to get inspectors

probably through shuttling to get to this operational plant. how is there investigation now being received in ukraine? well, 1st of all, of course, it's received. it was received well that they have criticize the military equipment on the side. that something that ukraine has been has been criticizing for a long time and that they expected them to do. but there was also criticism off the mission itself that they have not really proposed an action plan. they have not really said how they want to, to militarize this area that they, that they just stated what they saw, but did not give any further advice. ok, so ukraine disappointed. there is no plan of action there. and we know to inspectors from the i a are staying on at the plant. how helpful do you think that will be in improving the security situation there?

first of all, it improves the information of situation on security. so the a will have more direct information from the ground and it will be easier to monitor the situation because these 2 inspectors, they don't run the plan, they can facilitate maybe some things between the ration management and the ukrainian stuff. and the plan to there are some conflict arising that i might be able to negotiate, mediate, or something like that. but in fact, these 2 people, they are observing, they are not actively, probably going to try to do something security wise there. but it's important to have the full picture, it's important to have the information. so these 2 people, of course, they do make a difference. i mean, while ukrainian forces are pressing ahead with their counter offenses in the south and the east. what is the latest you're hearing from the front lines? yeah,

we've heard about successes in the south for some time. we don't know how well they're able to consolidate them. we don't get the full picture. there's little access to the front lines at the moment for journalists. and so there are questions that remain them but to we have with the picture that the ukrainians are indeed advancing. there is it is getting more and more he's getting more and more confirmed and in the east we are hearing now similar things. the push a push onto the front lines from the ukrainians. that seems to be that seems to be moving on that seem to be some successes. so a lot of pressure applied there. we don't know whether the objective is to really move forward fast. there are just to keep pressure high on the russian troops there . so russia can not deploy them from there to the south. for example, that's something that that has been some speculation about. but at the moment it looks as if the ukrainians are having the initiative on the in the hawk of region

and in the southern region. and that's off to russia have had the initiative in the dumbass, but also in other areas for a very long time. much of a reporting for us from keith. thanks so much. i can bring you up to speed now with some of the other stories making headlines around the world today. russian president vladimir putin has told an economic forum in a lot of off last shot sanctions against moscow or a danger for the whole world. and he also warned the west that it was impossible to isolate russia and hailed asia growing fruitful influences. western countries have imposed a raft of economic and personal sanctions since russia evaded in february, damage and european commission president ortho lafond lion has proposed a price cap on russian gas as part of several measures to tackle the energy crisis facing europe. ministers are due to hold an emergency meeting on friday. i made

charges that russia is weapon, ising energy supplies, in response to western sanctions. we aim at lowering the costs of gas and therefore we will propose a price cup on russian gas. of course, the objective is you are very clear. we all know that our sanctions a deeply grinding into the russian economy with a heavy negative impact. but putting his partially buffering through fossil fuel revenues. so here the objective is we must cut rushes, revenues, which put in uses to finance his atrocious warren ukraine. and that's as, as the baltic states of lithuania, latvia and estonia have reached agreement to restrict the entry of russian citizens . estonia had already banned russians entering as of last month. but this coordinated agreement is a new development was going to pakistan now where the prime minister says parts of

his country are just like a c following devastating monsoon floods, shabbos sharif, was speaking after he visited the southern province of cent. that's where authorities are struggling to prevent pakistan's largest lake from overflowing. workers have breached a dyke of lake monscheier to try to control the waters. and while that means more densely populated areas have been spared for now, nearby villages have been inundated. these people are fin the largest league in pakistan, has that much the homes with the league threatening to overflow and genius breached embankments to direct the water away from heavily populated 80th. but what deliver the stream mean dangerously high? i don't want a 100000 people have already been displaced. the overflowing lake, if that is felt of heavy rain and pakistan. so worst flights on record. one 3rd of the country has been impacted,

faint province if among the worst hit and if now facing a mandating crisis, with millions at risk of falling ill. i'm my child and i drank the dirty flood water and my child fell sick. he started vomiting and got diarrhea. health experts have worn the humanity and situation will get worse. was to lead up, say, linda, ever since the flood. we've had patients streaming in the boss, bush and indoor pool. we have 72000 patients registered with us. thompson away, but jimmy buckley but we have treated around 5000 children with diarrhea. da bach has done and mixed less than one percent of greenhouse gases, but ext but fe, it of being the price for global emissions. the un fecky to gentle antonio. good dish have fit the floods out of her felt of climate change. nature the striking

beck and climate change. she superchargers the destruction of all planets. today, it is bucky's them to moderate can be. and what else good data. she's heading to pakistan to speak. he's calling for a massive show of international support to bring in 8 that the country desperately need. no, i'd like to welcome ideal shiraz, he is the country director of care international, humanitarian and g o. working to deliver aid in pakistan. he's joining us now of from is on the by mr. sher eyes. your team is out in the field a. what can you tell us about the current situation at lake mon char, the water level as late my chair is still high, and that is like another one or 2 days, which we can still say that the risk. the water is still bossing from different cities and few 80 which are to latrice, including jump short or and to java. in next, 2 days time,

this water will connect with the sea. so the next 2 days are definitely a risk. there were some breaches which are done from this lake yesterday and day before to reduce lake flow of water which has effected some of the rural areas and lake and all the city will saved. but at the same time, the other 2 days will still be a risk. now we're also expecting more rain in the coming month. do you think things are going to get worse before they get better? it's, it's hard to say this to the i think the, the experience which we have seen in this more than the prediction of the rain. so not that heavy, but there were heavy rain which converted into flag as an aide worker. i'm concerned because of the rain top and the flow of the rainbow really high. they

could be in the span of flooding which may happen, and more or less could be affected and even people who are displaced, they may face more challenges. so as an organization, we all need to play our role at this stage, but definitely we are concerned on the next range which will come. and let's talk about that response. your organization has been on the ground since the floods hit . are you encouraged by the response that you've seen so far? a heavy needs, i would say, like, you know, our teams are in the fact to d, as in sam then baluchistan via providing support to the effected communities. but there are massive needs. it's, it's not a small area which is hit by this emergency. they're almost like 80 just sick, which are hard to get from disability. and we are talking about 6400000 people who are in need of support is workers come in organizations and also like us are providing this support in these areas. but we need to think that this is not an

emergency which will, over within days. because people have lost everything, including their sheltered livestock load, ready crops, and other acids. so it's like, you know, a pretty broad track of the emergency response which is lifesaving for now. and then converting into an early recovery phase. and then in the longer term development phase, and that will require a lot of support in terms of financial support in terms of in kind the board but, and then also making sure that these communities ought to be at about disaster risk reduction strategies. so that they can save them. so for any future thoughts or a project like this one, based on your experience as an 8 worker, how long do you think it will take pocket on to recover from this disaster? i think the live savings response can be for next 4 to 6 months,

which is just the initial response. and then we'll convert into an ally the company response. but it's usually between $12.00 to $18.00. so i as an aide worker and like from my previous experience of being in country which was in 2010, i can see that it will take between 2 to 3 years to really recover these effected communities and reintegrate them to the social network. i'd sure as country director of care international joining us from islam abroad. i want to thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us on the w news. thank you so much. and now let's take a look at some other world new stories at this hour. a quarter in hong kong have convicted 5 people of sedition for publishing children's books. the picture book explained hong kong $29900.00 democracy movement to children at the core to be the books to be anti government rights group. amnesty international called the decision, a brazen act of repression. the death toll from

a typhoon that hit south korea has risen to 10 local media, showed rescuers. recovering bodies from a flooded car park by the rescue team also discovered 2 survivors who huddled in an air pocket for 14 hours. the storm swept through the coastal city of on the south of the country on tuesday. and the u. s. has started a massive roll out of new coven. 19 vaccines designed for both the original strain of the corona virus and omicron variance government advisors. i said that in addition to the new boosters, it was likely that annual vaccination shots for cove, it would become the norm. similar to regular flu, vaccinations, and german lawmakers have paid tribute to late soviet president, me heil. gorbachev. who died last month at the age of $91.00. the parliamentary president described him as a great liberator who changed germany's history. attributes came as germany's

parliament got back down to business after the summer break. the 1st session saw some sharp criticism aimed at chancellor all off shorts, over his policies toward ukraine and russia. the bonus tag began its session commemorating former soviet leader. gorbachev, whose policy had ended the cold war and bridge the gap between the soviet union and the west. russian president vladimir putin. renunciation of this path and his war against embattled ukraine has led to the crisis situation that germany and other western states have to deal with. we abandoned the floor, we will do what is necessary though it is exactly along that policy line closely embedded in the alliance with our friends around the world that we support ukraine and will do so for as long as necessary. opposition leader cedric mats from the conservatives, sit back at the chancellor telling him he is not doing enough to support ukraine. he also criticized the government for sticking with its plan to eventually shut off nuclear power throughout sites for the time being,

this capacity must remain on the grid army. this will lower prices. this will reduce costs for companies. if you have people were told you that and it should be anything but an exaggeration. esau. mister chancellor, stop this insanities and is in chancellor. charlotte's replied that his government had solved problems before. the opposition had even identified them. he called out the conservative saying they were responsible for germany's reliance on russian energy as well as its slow progress on renewables. the bond or you were incapable of bringing about the expansion of renewable energies. you fought, defense of pedals against every single wind turbine. and every defensive battle in the last few years is still hurting our country. today. that was view those, the government and opposition agree that energy prices need to come down. but fundamentally disagree on how to reach this goal. or political correspondent nina

has a, has been following events in the bond is talk today. i need a very unusual for the german parliament to remember a foreign liter. so extensively what was said about what's happening in russia today. i agree completely. it was highly unusual indeed. if not unique, i still haven't found any records of the german bonus tag ever doing anything like this for a foreign leader, german politicians. yes. they do get those commemorated ration events, but not those from another country. and that of course has to do with the fact that robert of did play a very special role in the late 19 eighties for this country. it was his policies, his friendship with then chancellor call, whom he trusted. and his openness to us president reagan and then his willingness to embark on that path to democratic reform that eventually led to the peaceful revolution that we had here in germany. and that eventually then made german reunification possible. so it wouldn't have happened without gorbachev. so the

commemoration event might have happened anyway, but of course the fact that he died this year brings it home even more that we're now dealing with a completely different president in moscow. russia is on the completely opposite path. babbled past the president of the parliament had a message to vladimir putin today. she said it's deeply painful that everything that got much of stood for has been destroyed. and that putin as turned his back on coverage of ideas. and that that was a tragic mistake. and indeed, the war in ukraine and its ramifications here in germany also featured in the debate that followed the commemoration event. i'm criticism of the government by the opposition leader as we just heard, could germany be doing more to support ukraine? what is true and we all remember that germany was very reluctant up fast to send weapons to ukraine. it broke with a big to bu, for this country here. and especially when it came to delivering heavy weapons, that really was a paradigm shift. but it did happen and, but at 1st of course,

it led to a minor diplomatic route between berlin and keith. but germany is delivering heavy weapons. now, the ukrainian prime minister was here in berlin last weekend, and that in itself is a sign that ukraine is now willing to say, right, let's put all these things behind as move forward now, and the prime minister, show me how thank germany. he thanked all after i had said that have been lots of progress, but of course he once more gemini has sent 10 houses and 15 advent tanks, amongst other things. it is also promised 4 units of the air defense system iris t. but the prime minister said ukraine needs 12 of those, and he wants more. you wants combat tanks from gemini, the leopard too. but all i showed stressed today, again that germany just won't go it alone. even the u. s. are not delivering those sort of weapons to ukraine, so they're very weary of this conflict of potentially expanding to a conflict between nato and russia. and we'll have shows also you mustn't forget, he's got a very strong left wing anti weapons group in his own party. and that some people

say might be an additional factor, why he is still standing on the break. i mean, i just, before i let you go, russia's war has triggered an energy crisis here in germany and elsewhere in europe at the chancellor today though, said he isn't too worried. going into winter all of choice, deliver one of his better speeches today in burn. the 2nd heavily criticized the opposition, especially the, the conservatives who, of course, ruled the country for 16 years. and he said that they were responsible, essentially for that big dependency on russian energy sources. it, which is something that he said as chancellor try to get away from and when the country off russian gas from day one. and from the 1st minute that he was in power . and so he said the german government has essentially prepared for a scenario where russia would not be delivering gas to germany. and it did. so it prepaid very early on, even before russia invaded ukraine in february. so now our gas storage facilities

are filled up more than 85 percent. this is something that the german government had set itself. the goal for, for october. so they've reached that now already. they're investing massively and renewable energy sources. they've also changed some of the laws and made the approval process is easier so that new ellen g infrastructure terminals be being built. and the 1st ellen, g gas can actually flow from other countries into germany as early as this winter. and all these measures all i've showed said that make him fairly confident now that germany will get through this winter. okay. in terms of energy security, you know, has our political correspondent, thanks so much for that, update it in the united kingdom, newly appointed prime minister at least trust has taken to her 1st full day in the job with an inaugural cabinet meeting and questions in parliament. in her 1st speech as prime minister, she promised to tackle
