5:03 pm
a phone call from our mother who said she was under the ramble. she said, please find someone urgently to help me. i'm buried under the ravel. we don't know if she's still under the rabble. we were told some one was taken to hospital. it might have been hit, but we dont know. no, 900 ukraine's government says the attacks used so called kamikaze drones made in iran. oh oh, they can loiter overhead before finding and hitting a target. surveying the damage keeps mayor vitale. political said moscow was deliberately targeting civilians. they destroyed our country. they destroyed our hometown. did they kill city allows right now and we see the arrow days bear up. is there a dock is draw desert, draw praise of these one. roger, i do it. the russians need you. brainy. resolved your granules and that's why they keel after russia struck key for the 1st time in several months. d,
5:04 pm
w correspondent, funny fact shar, reported from the aftermath of one of the attacks is unclear. just how many people who me trapped here. but one message is clear, lasha is not going to let go of attacking. you have to sit in a sense, civilian indiscriminate shelling that the people here are witnessing the people of keith had gotten used to a degree of normality in recent months. but these attacks have brought the brutality of war rushing back. oh, correspond mathias billing? i'm is in keith and earlier he told me more about the russian attacks this morning . yeah, i am pretty much at the same location that we just saw funny this morning, reporting from it's been cordoned off. you can see these trucks going in there, so they are clearing up the deborah there and we know that 3 people have died in this attack. among them, a pregnant woman and 18 people ha,
5:05 pm
at least have been rescued from the rubble. it's another attack that hit residential building. there is a power station near by. it might very well be that this power station was targeted . we've seen this in the past few days more that russia has been tom targeting critical infrastructure. it's pretty much falls into the same pattern. russia has stepped up these attacks and they're able to empower things to these jones that they have gotten from a, from iran and are much more difficult for ad defenses to. so you talking about air defenses. are there many of the drones that attack key which actually shut down our cubes? air defenses improving. they are these we, we are hearing that fresh air has launched 40 drawings. now are all to 40 drones. a few hit um we've heard that these 28 have been shut down,
5:06 pm
but that's of course too many that are getting through. we've also seen policeman shooting with rifles at these drones. the problem with jones is that they fly much lower than a rockets. for example, am that eddie fan systems are built or the traditional ad defense is them. those air defense systems that ukraine has are made to shoot down rocket rockets that fly pretty high in the sky before they come down and demand. the key of has now is that it will get more smaller add defense systems that can shoot at lower objects. now the how prepared were the people of key for these latest stripes. the people here are aware that anything can hit, especially since last week of the month before a key of has been quiet and everything that was from time to time launch. the key
5:07 pm
has been shut down by air defenses. people of course, are very aware now that anything can happen we've seen last week after the 1st days after these massive strikes from last monday. the dizzy was much more quiet than it used to be. but right now, of course, people still need to go on with their lives enough to know that by past 2 days they were returning to the streets. and if you are at home and suddenly something hits your own, there's not much you can do to prevent the good of as much as building of their reporting from caves. thank you. mathias, one of the world's leading global health conferences is on the way here in berlin. the wells health summit is an annual event that focuses on urgent issues in health care. one of them fighting a tiny pest that kills hundreds thousands of people every year. they may be tiny, but they kill more humans every year than any other animal on the planet. by some estimates around
5:08 pm
a 1000000 people annually die from the pathogens that mosquitoes can transmit. and around half or more of those deaths are directly linked to one illness in particular. malaria which is caused by a parasite that multiplies in red blood cells. the blood sucking insects that can carry the disease have so far been limited by temperature and conditions to a wide band spanning the tropics world wide. many scientists believe climate change is now causing that band to widen. the vast majority of malaria cases occur in sub saharan africa where the disease is particularly devastating for young children. a lot of progress has been made in the fight against malaria here in the last couple of decades. much of it due to the distribution of mosquito nets and the targeted use of insecticides. but there's still
5:09 pm
a long way to go and places like this lake region in kenya. see if the cost of treating malaria is very high. you go to the hospital and they tell you there's no medication. so you have to go and buy it if you can, if you don't have enough money, most of us simply can pay the price. in sam hort's of pakistan. malaria has also historically been an ongoing problem, but the recent calamitous flooding caused by heavy monsoon rains and melting glaciers and the region has led to a spike and cases of the disease. as flood waters were sea. they provide a perfect environment for disease carrying mosquitoes to breed last year, the w h o estimated malaria caused around 800 deaths in the country. this year, it will likely be many more and you deflect, daring, sug, arise in whatever disease like your malaria, gastro. i'm doing most of the bishop or the children. i,
5:10 pm
a brilliant woman. medications can help treat the disease, but the long term goal is to develop good vaccines for malaria. so far, just one has been endorsed by the w h o, but it's less effective than many experts. what like more promising candidates are in the pipeline, however, and could be rolled out his early his next year. of them on that, on the john by peter sands is the executive director of the global fund to fight aids, to be colossus and crucially, malaria pita. why is it taking so long to develop an effective and safe vaccine against malaria, the coven? 19 vaccines were very quick in coming. so we were frankly lucky with code 19 in the salt to the virus that causes kind of 19 proved to be remarkably susceptible to vaccines. malaria is caused by a parasite which is a much more complex organism. and therefore, the task of developing a bank seen the combats it is a is
5:11 pm
a more difficult technical challenge. now let's look at the region most affected by malaria, sub sahara and for africa, what progress has been made there over the past years in the to decorate. so since the global fund has been created, we've roughly speaking halt. the death toll from malaria, which is a huge achievement. however, the number of cases has plateaued and indeed we seen a slowing of progress in reducing death. further, this is for a number of reasons. one is increasing the assistance of the mosquitoes to the insecticides. we impregnate, the bed network, and for the parasite itself to the treatments we use. but the other factor that is very concerning is the impact of climate change. climate change is
5:12 pm
increasing the range, the places where we find the mosquitoes that carry malaria, bringing them into places like higher altitude places where we haven't seen malaria before. the other thing we're seeing is with the increasing incidence of. busy extreme weather events caused by malaria such a sight clones or the terrible flooding in pakistan wishing up surges of malaria. because with these extreme weather events, you get water standing water, you get the disruption of services, and i'm afraid the events of the last few months in pakistan are maybe a signal of things to come of massive flooding and disruption. leading then, to an upsurge of this deadly disease. now,
5:13 pm
co. 19. how has the pandemic affected the fight against malaria? well, in 2020, we actually saw a 13 percent increase in malaria baths over 2019. this was the 1st increase in malaria deaths we seen in the last 20. yes. and the reason for that was the disruption to life saving services for people who are infected with malaria. what happens with malaria is that if a young child under 5 or pregnant woman is bitten, you get very rapidly, an increase to shop increase in temperature. if that's not diagnosed or treated within the 1st 48 hours or so. you run the risk of severe illness and death and what we had with it was the community health workers who would normally provide that testing and treatment. what sometimes a lot dance meant. they couldn't go to villages often,
5:14 pm
that they would diverted into caring for people with 19 and that disruption of services had a very immediate impact on the number of deaths of malaria cause. now since then, we have seen resilience greater efforts to sustain those services. and the global funders played a big role in making that happen. but we were not backwards by cobit pitas and staff. thank you very much for taking the time to joining us. thank you very much. let's have a look at some other news in brief, so that the britons opposition labor party has a strongly criticized turbulence. changes in economic policy made by prime minister less trust. conservative government newly appoint ins pointed finance minister, german hunt has really written difference, controversial tax bonds, trust original proposals were reversed after that holds up evil and financial
5:15 pm
market. in sweden, the parliament has confirmed moderate party leader will cost us on as a prime minister, he will lead at 3 ponti minority coalition, with christian democrats and liberals of the block will rely on the support of the far right sweden. democrats who emerged as the 2nd largest party in elections on those they still doped, amazing berlin will allow a number of afghans at risk of persecution to come to germany. the foreign and interior ministries announced that around $1000.00 afghans and their families will be granted entry, include activists, journalists, and members of religious minorities and were returning to our top story. ukraine says drones made in iran were used, and many of russia with the tax tehran denies selling bronze to russia. but analysts say there is evidence that iranian instructors have trained russian soldiers to use them. is
5:16 pm
a look at what the unmanned tools of war are and what russia is using them for. ah, they call it the moped for its loud crude mechanical noise that can be heard from far away. the iran made shot had 136 drone here, seen hovering over odessa. but it's no joke. these drones can have devastating effects, though iran deny selling them to russia. kia says fragments of this drone shot down in southern ukraine, have iranian, as well as russian markings. the shower head is a series of drones made by a rod. the 136 has a wing span of 2 and a half meters and carries 40 kilograms of explosives. it's classified as a loitering munition. it can hang out for hours in the air until a target is found than it zooms in, becoming a missile that destroys itself on impact. what makes iranian drones useful to
5:17 pm
russia is that they are cheap and the shot had $136.00 can cost about $20000.00 euros each. is the growth. mm. oh my, the, i'm in nigga that he rush or flies them alone or in low altitude swarms, hoping that one or 2 will get 3 ukrainian air defenses which have trouble seeing them. although several have been shot down. ukraine is still figuring out how to deal with the threat they pose, but they will have to act fast presidency. lensky claims that russia has ordered more than 2000 of the shot heads earlier. defense analysts, thomas, vigour. it's told us more about the russian strategy behind this new wave of attacks against ukrainian city far from the actual font lines there. well, actually it's a mix. obviously, it's partially intimidation of the people in the ukraine and the big cities. and
5:18 pm
as we've seen before, it's also of the target hitting critical infrastructure, especially energy. so that heating electricity, all these things are destroyed before winter sets it. now, how effective are these drones compared to other forms of attack, like a tillery barrages or, or, or rockets? they seem to be pretty effective. and the main point is we're talking about separation of air defense here. ukraine claim set of $43.00 drones which were directed at t f. 37 have been shot all which is quite a large percentage of the other hand to those that got through were as efficient for the damage we've seen. so it's about the sheer number, which is a problem for you. ok. now let's talk about the iran connection
5:19 pm
a bit more iran denies having supplied russia with drones. what, what's your take on that? well, we've seen so many pictures videos, footage from the front lines from kids today, which show those typically iranian drones. i think this claim is completely unfounded, and there really is prove that iranian material is used by russia and is war. now, why is russia now resorting to these a drone attacks as it run out of other weapons? obviously russia has run out of precision guided ammunition it's, it's called so they have a quite a large number of rockets to low battery of all this stuff. but they don't have sufficient numbers of precision iraq. it's precision guided missiles. and so the drone seems that she bought turn to achieve their aims. now
5:20 pm
we've talked. busy about ad defense systems being delivered to your grand german ones, american ones. a can these ad defense systems make a difference in favor of ukraine against these drones? not really. yeah. we've been talking about iris t s l. i'm from germany. nathan's from the u. s. and those are missiles for defense, which i intended as we've heard before, to shoot, don't foreign rock codes, cruise missiles, and fast moving objects. what you crane the legs obviously is so called short range and defense, which is artillery basically are to really to shoot dog planes, helicopters and those drones. and we've heard that the drum and get out with tags, a defense cabinets that those are making a difference. but it's only a 30 of those, and they are deployed on the front line. what ukraine needs is this kind of air
5:21 pm
defense artillery short range to guarded cities against drones. defense analysts, thomas gaza. thank you very much. you're welcome. the you has announced sanctions on iran security forces over the death of the 22 year old woman. gina massa. i mean the last month and the repression of subsequent anti government protests at talks in luxembourg. you foreign ministers agreed to target iran, so called morality police, in whose hands i mean he died, as well as a cabinet minister overseeing internet blockages. the names officials will be subject to you visa bands and assets freezes. of the use of foreign policy achieve jasa bribe announced the sanctions just a short while ago the counselor adopted today restrictive measures ange,
5:22 pm
11 individuals on 4 entities targeting dose linked to the death of my shaminy and to the depression of peaceful protest this and you need it, we are ready to add more names to visually check her is following events for us in a luxembourg jack, what more details dear have well, we know that those countries is 11 people and 4 entities, including the communications and information minister, who is responsible for the shut down of the internet in a run. this has been a balancing act for the european union, many of the countries while they feel that relations with iran are cooling off, if not freezing off. they want to try and get around back to the negotiating table of the j. c p. o. this is the name of the iran nuclear deal that was signed in 2015, but you as president donald trump removed from and joe biden,
5:23 pm
the new president is not trying to take the us back in. it's all about trying to prevent iran from getting a nuclear weapon. now, the sanctions are basically in response to an overwhelming sentiment in europe that your has to do something about these protests in the cracked kinds of them. but the question is, how much teeth that they have? how effective can they really beef as how many of these individuals or these entities really have assets in european bangs or intend to travel into the european union any time soon? it's at the moment symbolic, but i think what they're trying to do is make a statement that the e u is on the side of those protests as in iran. and that's also the aspect of iran's alleged involvement and rushes invasion of ukraine. what did the pharmacist that have to say about that? yeah, this is me, one of the big questions exactly, whether these iranian drones were used. the danish foreign minister appeared convinced that there was enough evidence that they've been used. but we heard from
5:24 pm
joseph array in his press conference, just they're saying that they need to wait for firm proof that those have been used, that they have been used against civilian targets. and then he said they will use all the tools possible to try and prevent that from happening again. and they will respond strongly was that was the position of the european union, hard to see what more proof they need. there is quite a lot, quite a lot of sort of dr. in taishan, i that i think this will probably flow into the leadership summit leaders meeting in brussels of the european union. and on thursday and friday, this week, just one of the side note, they've agreed, 815000 person training mission for ukraine's military of 15000 ukranian soldiers, new recruits, and enlisted men in order to try and train them on a new technology and get them train those train emissions will happen on you soil. that was something 6 weeks ago when we, when we had the same meeting in prague, that was not on the political table for the european union. so you are really seeing
5:25 pm
a tight change here in support of that kind of action from the you to try and train those soldiers. that will be going to the front lines to fight the russian army in ukraine. jack, very briefly, another big big topic on the agenda was china. what a hearing then? yeah, that's right. obviously we had these statements from china in, in the, in the chinese communist party conference that was taking place in beijing is still is taking place quite strongly coming out in favor of it. she's in pain. the president in china said that he wouldn't rule out, potentially military taken back taiwan by force. that was a report that came today that was quite strongly worded to the e u, a ministers. and this again will be a conversation that takes place with the leaders when they meet thursday friday in brussels scout zach pack and luxembourg for us. thank you. ah,
