6:03 pm
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. plesco 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 error. these bear up is there a dock is draw desert draw brace of these one. roger. good. the russians need you. brainy. resolved your granules in that. why big you see below people. the attacks come just a week after russia struck key for the 1st time in several months. d, w correspondent, funny fact shar reported from the aftermath of one of the attacks is unclear just how many people remain trapped here. but one message is clear,
6:04 pm
lasha is not going to let go of attacking. he had to sit in a sense, civilian indiscriminate showing 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 to w, a correspond mathias bullying up his in keith. and he told me earlier about the russian attacks this morning. yeah, i am pretty much at the same location that we just saw a funny this morning reporting from it's been cordoned off. you can see these trucks going in there, so they are clearing up the debris there. and we know that 3 people have died in this attack. among them pregnant women. and for 18 people at least have been rescued from the rubble. it's another attack that hit residential building. there is a power station nearby. it might very well be that this power station was targeted
6:05 pm
. 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 drones that they have gotten from a, from iran and are much shop were difficult for ad defenses to hydrogen. so you talk about air defenses there, many of the drones that attack key of push actually shut down our keeps air defenses improving. they are these we are hearing that freshly have launched 40 drawings, not of out of 40 drones, a few hit. um we've heard that at least 28 have been shut down. but that's of course too many that are getting through. we've also seen policeman shooting with rifles at these drones. and the problem with jones is that they fly much lower than
6:06 pm
a rockets. for example, am that edifice systems are built or the traditional ad defend systems. those air defense systems that ukraine has are made to shoot down rockets, rockets that fly pretty high in the sky. before they come down a demand, the key of has now is that it will get more smaller ad defense systems that can shoot at lower object. now how prepared were the people of key for these latest strikes the people here are aware that anything can hear, 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 of has been shut down by ad 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 disney was much more quiet than
6:07 pm
it used to be. but right now, of course, people still need to go on with their lives enough to know in the past few days they were returning to the streets. and if you are at home and suddenly something hits your home, there's not much you can do to prevent that good of as much as building other reporting from caves. thank you. mathias? as ukraine says, that the drones made in iran were used in many of russia's recent attacks to iran, denies selling drones to russia. but analysts see evidence of iranian instructors training russian soldiers to use them. his little art water, these unmanned tools of war are on 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 shall had 136 drone here seen hovering over odessa.
6:08 pm
but it's no joke. these drones can have devastating effects, though iran deny selling them to russia. kiev 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 russia is that they are cheap, haven't the shot had $136.00 can cost about $20000.00 euros each equal i is the growth will all my the am. and yet they get 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
6:09 pm
them. although several have been shot down with 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 sha heads. one of the world's leading global house conferences is currently on the way here in berlin. the world health summit, there is an annual event that focuses on urgent issues in health. can one of them fighting a tiny pest that kills hundreds of 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 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
6:10 pm
a parasite that multiplies in red blood cells. the blood sucking insects that can carry the disease have so far been limited by temperature in 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 a long way to go and places like this lake region in kenya. 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 at the canister, and you don't have enough money. most of us simply can pay the price. in sam hort's
6:11 pm
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 in 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, said arise in whatever disease like your malaria, gastro, i'm doing. most of the bishop or children. and in 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
6:12 pm
in the pipeline, however, and could be rolled out his early his next year. so i was taking so long to develop an effective and safe vaccine against malaria. i put that question to peter sands is the executive director of the global fund to fight aids, tuberculosis, and malaria. so, we were frankly lucky with covet 19 in the sauce called 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 vaccine, the combats, it is 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 decorative? sure. so since the global fund has been created,
6:13 pm
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've 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 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
6:14 pm
extreme weather events caused by malaria, such as i clones all 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, may be a signal of things to come of massive flooding and disruption leaving then to an out search of this deadly disease. now cove. 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 years. and the reason for
6:15 pm
that was the disruption to light 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, a shock 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 bands meant. they couldn't go to a village is often 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 the malaria cause. now since then, we have seen resilience greater efforts to sustain those services and
6:16 pm
the global funders played a big well in making that happen. but we were not backwards by cobit peter sans, thank you very much for taking the time to joining us. thank you very much. tom now to have a look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today. sweden's parliament has confirmed moderate party leader of crystals on ass prime minister. he will lead a 3 party minority coalition with christian democrats and the liberals of the block will rely on the support of the far right sweden democrats, who emerged as the 2nd largest party in elections. recently. 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. they include activists, journalists, and members of religious minorities. all 7 members of
6:17 pm
a k pop supergroup b t s will serve their military service. the bands record label has announced this and the years long debate over whether the stars should get an exemption from joining the armed forces, which is mandatory in south korea. the band has said to re and i'd as a group in around 3 years time b u has announced sanctions on iran security forces over the death of the 22 year old woman gina martha many last month and the repression of subsequent anti government protests as talks in luxembourg, you foreign ministers agree to target iran's so called a morality police, in whose hands i mean he died, as well as a cabinet minister overseeing internet blockages. a named officials will be subject to you visa bands and asset freezes. the use foreign policy chief, joseph bray announced the sanctions
6:18 pm
a short while ago the counselor that did today restrictive measures, ange 11 individuals on 4 entities targeting those link 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 are correspond jack, paris is following events for us in luxor, broken earlier. he had more details for me on the sanctions agreed by you foreign ministers. 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
6:19 pm
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, the new president is not trying to take the us back in. it's all about trying to prevent iran from getting a new killer weapon. these 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 b 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
6:20 pm
app 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 j super 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, a lot of sort of documentation. and i that i think this will probably flow into the leadership summit need, is a meeting in brussels of the your opinion on thursday and friday, this week, just one of the side note they've agreed, 815000 person training mission for ukraine's military. so $15000.00 ukrainian soldiers new recruits and enlisted men in order to try and train them on
6:21 pm
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 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 and ukraine. project very briefly, another big big topic on the agenda was china. what a hearing then. yeah, that's right. obviously we had the statements from china and 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
6:22 pm
brussels gab zach pack. the unlocks book for us. thank you. in the britain, the opposite labor party as strongly criticized the disruption created by a changes in economic policy by prime minister. let's trust, conservative government opposition leader care. starman argued long term damage have been done that can't be undone. newly appointed finance minister, jeremy hunt has rewritten the controversial plans for tax cuts. he said more tough decisions were to come in the future, but said stability in the financial markets was for now his priority. he also said the, you turn on trust original proposal would raise 32000000000 pounds a year, which would be used to support energy bill assistance. the prime minister is fairly, in turbulent times there in britain. let's grab more from the w, corresponded big mass in london, bigot. what do you make of the statement by a finance minister? hunt?
6:23 pm
well in this whole manner as men, the house of commons, i think jeremy hunter, to present himself as the adult in the room. somebody with a clear mind sane and taking over basically from from this trust because for her, this is all quite humiliating. she got elected as leader of the conservative pot and the basis of promising very, very aggressive tax cuts. and now this is almost no more. so jeremy hunt a has more or less announced that everything that lou louis trust stood for is team reverse it, join you to and, and if you really leaves the question, what is list trust therefore, why is she prime minister when she, when i hope program, basically has gone up in the air today. so what is hong really trying to accomplish by this quick you turn?
6:24 pm
well, he gave this statement to day and spoken house of commons today because he was directing his actions towards the financial markets. he wanted to signal that there is a, a new policy are in our, in britain. and that all the chaos that we have seen recently on the financial markets should end because they're the, basically the, the policies that were nouns and that had spooked the market with these unfounded tax cuts that these policies would be reversed. so he made a statement today, he said there will be more details at the end of the month. but clearly he was trying to calm the nerves of the financial markets that had to speak and ready rattled their british political establishment. now everyone's, of course, asking how long list draws will be able to stay on in the dawning street. and one good indicator for that is to have a look at the betting shop. so what are, what are the book he's saying? what are people betting on?
6:25 pm
well there are bad weather list, trust will have a longer shelf life than and lettuce. and there's even something on twitter where there is a camera that says set on a lattice and it did it at the moment. it does look really quite good for the lettuce as they it there, the less is will out last less charles, on the, in the opinion polls. she is incredibly unpopular. her personal opinion ratings are . i had a story close and the about one and 10 people are thinking that she, she is a good prime minister and her. yeah that, that leads the book. he's all say to you to think that our list for us will not be as if your batting at the moment that less trust will be for i minister at the end of the year. you are not getting very much money. thank you very much there. my eucharist, bonham, bigger master, thank you for good the fraud and corruption trial of football star
