the so called lawson damage the idea that rich countries that are also the biggest emitters of carbon dioxide should compensate the polar and more vulnerable countries that are being hit. the hardest by climate change in germany has pushed for this issue to be on the agenda here. at cobb, now they are not convinced and not sure that there is going to be a decision as how this fund for loss or damage would work. but they have signaled that germany would be in favor for this funds to be created. and this again, the issue of lawson damage is one of the sticking points in negotiations at cop this year. and it is still unclear whether an agreement on this can actually be reached. now, one of the many on resolve issues apparently, as you said, one of which is fine. and so the poor countries won't support from wealthier industrialized nations to cope with the problems. so can there be a bit more hopeful after the speech we've heard from
3:01 pm
many people here that the negotiation still have quite a way to go on this matter, even though comp is meant to end to morrow on, on friday. so there's still a lot of work ahead and we almost have 2 blocks in the sense we have the are developing countries on, on, on one side who really want to see a mechanism included in the agreement here in cobb a fund and a mechanism. so that richer countries can give money to the developing countries most affected by climate change and they want to see a richer countries contributing in the billions to this fund. and on the other hand, we have countries like the us or other european countries, for example, who are a bit more skeptical. they don't necessarily want to see a mechanism created right now. they want to have more time to come together and discuss what this fund would look like, what this mechanism would look like. and they're also hesitant to commit to certain
3:02 pm
sums of money because they won't, don't want to be held liable for years and years to come for sums in the billions and trillions. they're obviously hesitant to have to give away all that money. and this is the crucial issue. will these countries be able to find a middle ground to to agree, at least on something on lawson damage at this cop to have your correspondence. julia saw daily that in shotwell shake. thank you very much, julia and what he did of his coverage of the un climate summit in the shop shaken egypt. worley. this have been making major pledges on climate action. just a short while ago. germany is for mr. molina. bab, oak said her country was committed to trying to keep warming to 1.5 degrees celsius transition away from fossil fuels and boost aid to poor countries. hit hardest by global warming, brazil's president elect louis enough to let the silver promised to crack down on deforestation in the amazon. but delegates are yet to agree
3:03 pm
a deal over compensation for poor country suffering, the damaging effects of climate. now d, w is tim, shown back at call, 27 in egypt, spoke to louise annoy ball went off, germany's leading activists combat climate change. let's have a lot of speaking with louise, annoy, bar german climate activists. miss no ball. you know, the position of the german foreign minister on alina bab, awkward, you heard it's all very convincing. what you say in germany wants to do, wants to do more, has to do more. do you still believe her? well, i think it's a tradition says they want to do more. that's not my position to doubt that with what we're looking at is the action more than the words. and what we're seeing is that our foreign minister, but our chance of shows as well have company with big budgets. but then we then look at the track record of germany into climate crisis. and it's as bad, and we're seeing that what their promises for, you know, next, celebration, transition and more renewables. there's always a german funding going. it's
3:04 pm
a new fossil fuels all across the world. and in particular, the african continent. what are expecting of the foreign minister to, to address now in this negotiations where we expect of course, germany, to finally get that things together for loss or damage. and we haven't yet heard anything that is convincing enough that is convincing that the people here that demanding of every right they have less and damage to be paid for by countries like germany. and then of course, germany wants to keep any climate integrity at this conference. they need to back up from the synagogue gasdio that is being, am negotiated just now. it cannot be that a country like germany and the 21st century is actually making up opening up together with senegal at new gases and on the ocean, just to feed out our energy grids in 10 years time. that's not the reality that we're seeing right now. what we need is renewables, not another new gasdio. what about the argument of hydrogen which could flow
3:05 pm
through the same pipes? hydrogen can not throat and hydrogen cannot flow through the same pipes as gas can . that is a friend, physical requirement there. and any politician who claims that is possible has tended no idea of what we're talking about. hydrogen diffuses through steel, which is what these pads are made out of. so it's not the infrastructure that tiny path that can be kept. but overall, hydrogen is not what you know, gas is flowing through and that is a big, big, bold ferry chair that is being told by the fossil fuel lobbyists at what us one to believe that they're moving away from the fossil fuels. we're actually extending the fossil fuel era, the anything that makes you optimistic regarding the outcome of this yes conference . well, what we're seeing at this conference is that anything could be possible if leaders came together to actually deliver as they promised we can get away from fossil fuels. we can enter the,
3:06 pm
the renewable era. we can make sure that people have to be don't have to be scared and you longer to be led down and thrown in front of the boss by the world community. all that is possible, but it needs to be done is made happen. it needs to be delivered to you. and what we're seeing here though, is that the most privileged countries of the world that was responsible for the climate crisis, i giving everything that can to push us even further into fossil fuel m error. thank you. thank you. iraq is one of those countries that could benefit from a loss and damage funds to the countries reeling from the effects of climate change sandstorms of frequent and lakes of dried arbors has much of its agricultural land . this summer, iraq's gazelles were the 1st victims of the drought that has swept the country for 3 years. they have no more grass, no foliage for shade. does this perished close by one of your box many dry lakes?
3:07 pm
the sour lake was a national landmark. hydrologists are hon. i'll have far g often brought his students here to the water. the drying up of the saw will lake is primarily a consequence of climate change in iraq. the lack of rain and increased evaporation, which more, more than 2000 wells have recently been drilled in the area though swells are meant for agriculture, but that didn't help iraq last half of it, agricultural land to the desert this year. on some days, temperature is reached and unbearable. 55 degrees. thousands of farmers have left their villages. i sell them a rock. when i got over here, you see it over the country is the desolate. well, the earth is full of salt, but up we've become poor that we want to go away. but no one will take us in
3:08 pm
anywhere else. the legendary palm trees of southern iraq are just a memory on the border between iraq and iran. her son, her little from the university of basra, explains how yvonne has diverted multiple rivers into its own territory. and damn them up. also these funds to climate change. that means that almost no fresh water flows into iraq any more than that. and i haven't a joke about a monopoly. she took a picture here 40 years ago. it would have been dark green and he'll be of all kinds of palm trees grew here with expensive unique dates and gardens, full of citrus fruit. lucky land had gone to america as i came in humbly od ah, but doubt. in early summer the water in the t greece receded so much that people
3:09 pm
were able to stand in the river. the city choked on sandstorms. climate experts say they will be more and more each year. while downstream on the persian gulf, there's less and less fresh water from iraq's rivers. while more salt water is drifting in the loan. for my brother, look at that. i expect see levels to continue to rise due to climate change and the land here is not high enough to abby should contribute. in less than 30 years, parts of southern evac could be inundated by the sea. ukraine is calling for access to the site of poland. were miss al, kill 2 people on tuesday. poland believes the strike was accidentally caused by ukrainian air defense, as it's responded to attacks by russia ne, to has backed that assessment. but keith disagrees. and once ukrainian experts to be involved in the investigation there in these fields near the ukrainian border,
3:10 pm
the search for answers continues. it was here that a miss al cam down on tuesday, killing 2 and sparking fears that the warn ukraine might escalate into a wider conflicts. had this been an intentional attack on nato member, poland. a could have triggered a military response by the alliance by analysis of these fragments, let war. so to conclude, that the missile was not launched by russia who understood shahrokhi thought he was probably an es 300 rocket made in the soviet union, an old rocket. and there is no evidence that it was launched by the bush inside. it is highly probable. it was fired by ukrainian anti aircraft offences. and unfortunately, fell on our wits habit tree. russia on tuesday launched dozens of crews my southern drones at civilian targets in ukraine as president putin sheets to compensate for
3:11 pm
battlefield defeats with terror. hello, ukrainian president vladimir. the lansky denied that a ukrainian air defense missile had gone. of course, he called for his own investigators to be granted access to the site drains, comple, ukrainian position is very clear. we strive to establish all the details for every fact. that is why we need our specialists to join the international investigation and to get access to all of a data available to our partners. and to his sight of the explosion, mika, we will, in his remarks, the incident has not weakened the resolve of ukraine's key ally the united states. and we, the united states, are determined to continue to support ukraine with the means to defend themselves. for as long as it takes, but the end of the day, ukraine will retain,
3:12 pm
will remain a free and independent country. will its territory intact. with nato unlikely to join the fight, he crane will need all the material support it can get. for more the subject, i'm not joined by frank leverage a military analyst at the university of portsmouth in the u. k. the this incident in poland happened with russia firing scores of missiles at ukraine. what is russia strategy there after ukrainian forces took control of press on earlier this week? well, good afternoon. the strategy is quite straightforward. it's called strategic bombing . they aim is to undermine the will to fight of the ukrainian people by under cutting that living conditions. from my own speaking to your credit, people that is failing on the country, it's making them far more determined, more on great, but the strategy and it is a strategy,
3:13 pm
it's called strategic bombing, and it will fail, as all similar campaigns are failed by the way. now let's start with that. hit poland. on tuesday we have nato and poland saying, this looks like it was ukraine, acting in self defense with miss all gone, gone astray, but present lensky is still pointing the finger at russia. what are we to make of this? every missile it's 5 to i that will hit its target has to come down again. this was a ukrainian across fi russian. aggression essentially missed its target is all too many do i need to fall to in poland? that's the fact of it. i think for what it's worth the president landscape team might be better advised to accept the verdict of polish experts. they know what they're doing, and nato experts. and furthermore, others who seen photographs of the incident apologize. but making the point that this is the russian responsibility quite rightly and move on. that would be the
3:14 pm
better approach, i think. now the kremlin is now saying that russia will not use nuclear weapons. can this statement be trusted? no, nothing that the company says can be trusted. i suspect myself, this is the result of several exchanges between senior american. both ortiz, particularly general miley and mr. biden's foreign office or state department on defense teams. and they check sullivan over the last month or so with their russian counterparts been made clear the russian nuclear strike with demonstration would be a suicide note. and i think the russians have taken us on board. that said, there will be decision points over the next few months where savers will be rattled again and the threat level. for now, i think we can say quite safely, for the rest of the year. need to next year, those tables all main sheet, but we certainly contrast what kind of assess just suits them. now to say it,
3:15 pm
frank, that were there monitor analyst at the university of portland. thank you very much . thank you. got time not to have a look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. australia, the seeking international assistance as it responds to flooding on its eastern coast. the state of new south wales is worst affected with dozens of towns, swamps, and cut off from highways and bridges. the rain fall has brought frequent floods. over the last 2 years, ukraine says the deal that allows it to export grain through the black sea will be extended by 4 months. turkey, which i'll broker the agreement, confirmed the initiative will continue on the existing terms. north korea fired a ballistic massage towards his eastern waters on thursday as it warned off fiercer military responses to the u. s. and its allies. the launch is the latest in a record number of such tests. this year, me

it's our everything to for making sure coven. and as me never go hungry, is tenure. burnside, top priority to 32 year old is a self employed painter, but with high gas prices and inflation over 10 percent, it's not enough to make ends meet off. turning on the heating is a luxury these days and it's been off for a couple of days under settler bedroom and where for the next paid payday or the next bit of cash out and find to to put it on sim with electric, i'll turn lights off on a night of, on, on the house to diagnose there are free food banks all over the u. k. like here in north london. but across the country, the lines of needy people are growing longer. i had to read than i ruzen as a single mother and works part time in
3:18 pm
a department store. she comes here almost every week. it will be very difficult, especially nowadays with a inflation and the prices are growing not go up so much know very difficult, very defy. didn't know how could manage our ass task carnis in charge of food distribution. he estimates that demand has gone up by 50 percent in the last 6 months. the country i don't bring a face to time that is in the warm people that are in, we're actively both husband and wife. they are currently access all services. and these people will normally associate, yet older people, single parents, children, poverty hits them all particularly hot. martin godfrey is a doctor in london. some of his patients are overly pale and proud to infection because they don't have enough to eat. he worries, especially about the children in 2020 and in some parts of london,

3:20 pm
of the $298.00 victims of flight image. 17. 3 of them are for the family of pete plu, like most of the relatives, he's keen to hear the final verdict of the dutch court. we are waiting for a year for this year, for this further, it is for me. and for all my shocking is, is very, very important to the trial. but the downing of m h 17 is a test for the dutch justice system. 68 hearings, 70000 pages of documents and the elaborate reconstruction of the destroyed plane and a hanger in the netherlands. the suspects were military commanders, 3 russian, and when ukrainian they didn't take part in the proceedings. we've always known that the, the for suspected won't do their time. am i and they are under the protection of, for, of the russian government. we know that her, but you know, it's, it's really important for us as an independent court gives referred it and the
3:21 pm
world will know who was responsible. figuring out which type of rocket brought down the airplane and where it was fired from was the 1st hurdle. the 2nd was identifying the suspects here, the investigative website. bellingham played a big role using open source information. we had mob images with wreckage and that and that establish which party actually being hit by shrapnel. you also have videos and photographs me shared that of a book missile launcher being transported, that a lot of the dentist hours the route. so i will shoot towards the launch sites in international investigative team in the netherlands was adding more detail as were the dutch prosecutors. it was also especially difficult for the dutch court because there was a politically charged trial. besides, the 4 suspects, the russian states seemed to be in the duck da criminal trial really isn't about russia. and at the same time, indirectly. of course, a lot of these evidentiary questions concerned a role of russia really with regard to the bulk or where it was launched from and
3:22 pm
the role of russia in terms of having effect over on the separatist fighters. so indirectly, it's very much about russia, but russia never acknowledged its role. it really would have made a difference if her, if they said, sorry that they never did. and some of the families involved have never recovered from the tragedy war. still in grade, psychological or distress. ah, lost her job. she lost her companies or lost their families firmly, shocked, torn apart. and they are still living as if with you as if it happened yesterday. for others, time has healed some of the pain. and for them the verdict may go some way to delivering justice. a correspond barbara visual is at the courthouse where the verdict will be heard and she joins a snob barbara, has the court issued a verdict yet and they are just about to the we see the presiding
3:23 pm
judge here in the background is still laying out as a changes chain of evidence. we've already also heard that he finds one of the for accused eager for lots of not guilty because he said the, the evidence against him wasn't strong enough. this was also the man who was the only one who was represented by a lawyer here in court and who threw out sort of foot protested his innocence and said, i really didn't have anything to do with hiring this book. muscle against the image, 17 flight or the other 3, however are being found guilty and we're just waiting for the sentence against them . the 1st q sion here has asked for 311, a 4 is initially life sentences, but the 3 remaining, the license is pending to be. it is sort of spoken against them. now this strike barbara started more than 200 years ago. that's a long wait for justice. what's the scene like there? it's not really that longer hard,
3:24 pm
because if you consider the big international tribunals against war crimes and they were much more cumbersome, it was much slower. this court is really tried in a very complex case because legally, this is not easy. i mean, this is a dutch court proceeding, according to dutch criminal law, as something that has been and not done before. so this is really a legal, a new, new ground for everyone here. and so they really had to sort of feel their way forward. they had to care for the way the evidence because it was not that clear cut. a lot of it was open source evidence, other other parts were evidence that the investigators collected that witnesses brought to the port. it's all the said to be very carefully edit up. it's a huge package chauffeur, a pages of court documents here that had to be evaluated. and in the end, yes, the court is coming to the conclusion that the 3 of the accused are guilty. and
3:25 pm
that more over the russian states had control over those separatist fighters and commanders in easton ukraine in 2014. so implicitly, this is also about the responsibility of russia now, and none of the defendants is actually there will though, face justice we don't know this, we can't look to the future. we don't know how the war and when the war between ukraine and russia is going to end. we don't know whether walk criminals will ever be sort of brought to justice in person. and whether ever there will be a chance for the accused. and the one, the 3 ones for being now try to are known this court and will probably be handed over a found bunch. of course, this is about justin justice also in an abstract way in a, in a sort of theoretical manner. it just, it just is, as it is spoken in
3:26 pm
a fair trial by it horrid, that is the ruling according to the law of the land. and that this is what this is about, and for many of the families, this means also it is a kind of satisfaction to see this min tried a bower in your report there we saw the anguish. how important is this closure for the bereaved families? you think for some, it is very important. some say this is really the big step for us that, that makes it possible for us to move on. because if this a cord to having held a fair trial, now it's sort of sentences that the men who are guilty of that for in, for us means at least that justice has been spoken for others. however, and this is really very splitting the anguish will just live on and they feel that because nobody's going to go to jail. and of course nobody can bring back their lost relatives. reads is no court in the world. and for them,
3:27 pm
it means that it won't heal the wounds that where it is sort of inflicted 8 years ago. the w responded bob, isabel, thank you very much, barbara watching the w. c. as a quick reminder of all top stores, what leaders have been making major pledges on climate action at a summit in shotwell shake in egypt, germany's foreign minister alena bab oakside, her country was committed to trying to keep warming to 1.5 degrees celsius transitioning away from fossil fuels and boosting aid to pull countries, it hardest by global warming. ah, with
