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, and the shot had $136.00 costs about $20000.00 euros each. i is the growth. mm. oh my, the am. and yet, they get that he russia flies them alone or in low altitude swarms, hoping that one or 2 will get through ukrainian air defenses, which have trouble seeing them. although several have been shot down. the
5:06 am
ukraine is still figuring out how to deal with the threat they pose, but they will have to act fast. president lensky claims that russia has ordered more than 2000 of the shower head. earlier we spoke to a leak, a franca. she's a senior policy fellow at the european council on foreign relations in london, and an expert on drones and artificial intelligence. and we asked her whether the use of drones could be decisive in this war. i think at this point, you can see that russia, as mainly using the system to, to terrorize the population, to destroy these attack civilian infrastructure, which is going to frustrate the, the civilian population, even more will destroy the economy. even more, all of this has an impact on the war, although not the direct one, but of course, you know, you can use the systems also directly on the battlefield, attack, troop formation, tangs, etc. so this may also play play
5:07 am
a role. who in forward i would be surprised if the systems were the $56.00. i mean, there's really one system that the size of in the war. but nevertheless, i think the number here really matter is if we really are talking about thousands and iran just keeps them coming and fresh, i can throw them on onto the battlefield. this. yeah, this may impact the work quite a bit. of course, you know, other elements are important too. so let's not just focus on one to the system. it's not going to decide the war. that was all rigor franco, senior policy fellow at the european council on foreign relations. well, let's take a look now at some other stories making news around the world. in a major prisoner swap with russia more than a 100 female ukrainians have returned home. most women are ukrainian soldiers. some are from the as of style still works in multiple, which was under siege for weeks. under the 10 russians were sent back in exchange and germany is to keep its 3 remaining nuclear power plants,

5:12 am
appreciated because this is the only 2nd such set of human rights designations that b e. u has levy against the islamic republic since 2013. so human rights, lawyers and advocates have long been calling for further designations for human rights violations on top iranian leadership. and that just hadn't happened until now. he's soon new director of the atlantic council strategic litigation projects was speaking there. well, one of the world's leading global health conferences is underway here in berlin. the world health so much is an annual event that focuses on urgent issues in health care. one of them is fighting a tiny pass that kills hundreds of thousands of people annually. 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 a parasite that multiplies in red blood cells. the bloodsucking 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 a long way to go and places like this lake region in kenya. see if the cost of
