remained trapped in their homes. we look at ukraine's hidden dangerous experts. one of the hazards from unexploded landmark is covering a 3rd of the country report from hockey region. ah, until gale, welcome to the program. at least 78 people have been killed in a stampede in yemen. the crush happened when hundreds of people had gathered at a charity event in the capital santa to receive financial aid during the muslim holy month of ramadan. our next report contains images you may find distressing. desperately trying to free themselves. as security guards shouted the crowd to turn back,
9:02 am

9:03 am
a devastating humanitarian crisis. that who as sudan, where fighting between the army on the paramilitary rapid support force shows no sign of ending after the failure of the latest sakes. fire bodies are reported to be lining the streets of the capital and thousands of civilians are fleeing. yeah, ford is closed and supplies of food, water and medicine are running out at least 270 people had been killed since violence broke out on saturday. locking up forget that mohammed is one of many people fleeing heart in taking just a few necessities with him. atlanta with the kin. i'm heading for the southern region. is eda, it's no longer possible to live here. that even though there's no bread any more? no food, nothing. no water. think no gasoline. now can i set up loving z o. the sudanese
9:04 am
capital on the river nile feels like a ghost town. a latest attempt at a cease fire between the army and a paramilitary force has failed with the head of the army and his deputy. the head of the arisa have shared power in sudan since 2021, and signed to deal with political parties in december 2022 scholars to forge a path towards civilian rule. many of them, however, they disagree on key issues. and these tensions erupted into fierce clashes on saturday. for the cities residents, the situation is becoming more and more precarious. bread is in short supply in large parts of the capitol. doctor's report, that many clinics are lacking, crucial medical supplies, which are being blocked by the warring parties, people can move to hospitals and businesses cannot reach people at homes on there is a delay to that and really needed adequate medical care. and that's harkell when we
9:05 am
have a little bit of infrastructures. unfortunately, that's even worse for place. balls of heart to him. remaining here isn't an option for many sudanese, but with little hope for a quick end to the fighting. they likely won't be returning home any time soon. there will yonah cnn co is a spokesperson for africa with the international committee of the red cross. she told me more about the humanitarian impact office violence. the humanitarian impact has been disastrous and he's just getting was with every are, was that this uninterrupted fighting continues because people are on the verge, are they are running out to food, running out of water. they're terrified. they're all the injured and the ambulance is the medical personnel cannot reach them. also, medical staff cannot reach hospitals. yesterday i spoke with one of our colleagues from base. so then you read chris in society and what he told me was just
9:06 am
disturbing. he says that his biggest fear is that the medical system will collapse and then we can expect the worse and so give it couldn't give us an idea of how many people are trying to flee the fighting on whether might be going well, it is very difficult to speak about numbers, about precise numbers because our teams just like the rest of the population in the capital cartoon. they're sheltering in place because the fighting has been extremely intense, very close to the populated residential neighborhoods. and they can not move around to give you the, the accurate estimate of what is extremely worried is that if you look at the larger region done itself has been the place where refugees will lean from other countries in the region facing instability. it has $1000000.00 refugees, which is one of the largest refugee populations in africa. so now if you look
9:07 am
around at other countries around done, you can also ask yourself where these people are going to go. and so why do you think the face wise keep failing? well, i think that so all those people who are involved in the fight team, they would be better place to answer this question for us, where humanitarian organization. so what we are looking at are the humanitarian needs and the humanitarian needs are growing by the minute. and this is why continuously we're calling in bilateral conversations. so humanitarian diplomacy in publicly for respect of the international humanitarian law. because they do have an obligation to provide these who many children space for civilians to be able to re supply for ambulances and humanitarian workers to be able to reach people in need
9:08 am
of some dustin to discount regard for the laws of war. if i can put it that way, as i understand that the fighting is not limited to an enemy combatants, but also attacking hospital surveillance and even aid workers. what is happening is that the fighting has been very intense and happening very close to densely populated residential areas. and we're seeing in sudan as well as we've seen in other places around the world. how dangerous and devastating this is for the civilian population because the essential civilian infrastructure is getting damaged. civilian homes are getting damaged. so now you have civilian population will have gone for a basic essential services without electricity, water without access to health care. and the situation is going to get worse if there is no humanitarian space. if there is no
9:09 am
a pause and destry and no regard for the international humanitarian law for us as a spokesperson for africa with the international committee of the red cross. as you're speaking to me a little earlier, we can now get more on this from johnston political. i'm mr. patrick or yet. he's based in cuba in the south. so down, welcome to the w. let's start with the latest your hearing from saddam yeah, the letters we're hearing from our so don is the fighting is still ongoing at night last night. there was a moment when it was quiet and there was hope that that question is would continue . but unfortunately, did not. so reportedly egypt in troops who i lost basically training said in these pilots they had been caught up in the fight. and actually we were told that last night they were moved to, to me. and we also told that they were evacuated. and so there was
9:10 am
a moment in which the fighting actually was not there, but they, after they immediately did the parties that are fighting, begun fighting again on fighting is continuing up to now, right. this i think, is the 2nd sci fi to fail. what seems to be the problem? yes, this is the 2nd fire that is failing. there is a thinking among many of these people that both sides in the fighting. i believe that they can actually gain some grounds. they are thinking is that at least maybe somebody will win. so those are the things that we are making really, this part is not to not to obey the sci fi. because once i think i may window the fighting outright, another one things, maybe i should gain more ground so that when we begin negotiations,
9:11 am
then i am having an upper hand. so those are possibly day reasons as to why deciding it is really not, not stopping. right so, so it doesn't look like this is going to stop and i keep hearing people say that this could spiral into a civil war. what would that look like? yeah, this doesn't look like it will is da father was because of yes, you know the claims and counter claims. for example, this wouldn't force, i will tell you, we are in control of file, you know, 90 percent of the city. and then there are pete support forces will say no, is not true in control of 70 percent. so they are those kinds of, you know, claims and found a claim. so everybody want to show that there is something that's, that's very bad because it doesn't really, you know, low even mediators willing to, to mediate, to come in. and of course, it is likely to become a world war because of many reasons as well. and number one is that the number of
9:12 am
people now affected by the will is very big or the fighting for that matter. maybe it was a very big then that people also was like, you know, we're losing out. also the number is, is growing. another complication is there so many groups in this for, for example, we up, i'm goes that i've never joined the government in the southern part of sudan in blue island south to find new by mountains. you also have groups. i'm. the problem is that those groups have the leader, the car to him and is fighting is going on in to my other part of the country. if anything happens to any of the leaders, maybe the injured or something and received this information, they are likely to also join. so it, it, it becomes a civil war and, and of course the got. wow. ok, thank you for outlining that. so clearly for joining us or patrick or to journalist and political analyst,

9:20 am
matthew moore joins us from the government district near berlin's brandenburg gate . welcome, mathew. what's happening morning. so an well the supported by me that you can probably see are there's about 30 to 40 protest this year and they began the morning on the road. right. by the brandenburg gate, which you may see in the distance behind me and began blocking the road m. no, we are farther up the road. it stopped a few people have been pulled aside. it got tens at some point and know that they're, they're sitting behind me and occasionally it seems to come to a bit of a standstill. the traffic is now moving, but this is just part of one of our own half a dozen similar kind of protest walks this morning in berlin. and as, as you, as we had, is all about trying to, to bring this message that, that enough is not being done to tackle the climate crisis is what we see. and so no, we've gone from protest in the regions around germany to a partition. it's really specifically target at telling the government that more
9:21 am
needs to be done to tackle the problem of climate change. and they want to see they've told me they want to see fossil fuels phased out by 2030. they want to see society group set up to tackle this problem. so it's, it's about bo, sending a message that this is really quite urgent. right. will it seem very quiet and well behaved there? what's the background to this? the back once a day says that a couple of years ago, the constitutional court in germany said that the government was effectively breaking the law by placing the burden of climate change on younger generations. and since then, not an office happened, protest this, tell me this morning. and in the last few months we've seen government watering, don't plans to ban fossil or rather to been air combustion engine, cars. and so, and, and at the start of this week, a panel of claim experts, the governments on panel plan expert said that on current plans on the current trends, germany would miss the pirate claim at targets at 2030 by something like 40 percent
9:22 am
. and these people here saying they're desperate and they've got no other choice i spoke to. people have come from all over germany to be here to these protests this morning. and they say, we would rather not be here. we actually regret having to be here, but simply with not a choice. it's a matter of it's, it's existential. they say i and briefly how controversial all these process, my well, we had done some, some drivers this morning shouting at the protest group, say some profanities and the are controversial. they're always that they're designed to be disruptive. it says civil disobedience is that is not nature, but a 50 percent of germans told, told a full recently that the government isn't doing enough so that they seems to be they, it does to speak to a kind of frustration among german voters. the enough hasn't been done, but we, it's per, it's also polarizing because you've got politicians call them who label that the protesters from the last generation and just stop while groups the labeled on
9:23 am
extremists, which obviously than i am. so there is this sense though that that the people here, you know, they don't the law that it's controversial, they know that it could end them in prison, but they've got no choice if they've really got no choice. so i thought matthew matthew, a more political correspondent, quick line of football. the champions league semi finalists are now set in stone by munich of crushed out just by drawing one all against manchester city. that's a 3 nill lost in the 1st leg which seal their fate are the english champions face rail madrid in the final 4 and wednesdays, other quarter final inter milan progressed after a thrilling 3 all draw against ben feca. so then when the ty, 53 on aggregate, that sets up a fire italian darby against fear, city rivals, ac milan until the house and dw sport is here to talk us through
9:24 am
those champions league results. so welcome angela was go wrong for bonds, new coach thomas to go buy an out of the champions league and their season to seems of unraveled. it has to some degree, the man pointing at you at the moment has done very little wrong now. he's coming half way through and tried to turn the ship around, but it's really binary because i played a bit of football team in manchester. city. part of that bit of football team is a guy by the name of earling holland. he's breaking scoring records in the champions league. he's going faster than christiana renella, so it's not as good as not just very good. it's absolutely outstanding. what holland is doing interesting, the 2 central figures in this game of pip. guardiola who went from buying to manchester city and earning holland who went from dorman to city. i'm in flying, of course that german football is not the destination. that is manchester city and the premier league and these 2 central figures were central. in this result, the broader view was that the na guzman sacking and, and the took appointed by needed him to look tactically in the i pip guardiola. and
9:25 am
he did, he did famously once in a restaurant guardiola and took or sitting there with salt and pepper shackles, moving them around the table. i think that genius is talking about football until well into the morning. there are the building on to the table will. it's not just that, but he's got ailing holland and he is scoring goals like a footballing robot. and i think one that he might just get across the stomach and wise fill out of holland. he is just incredible. got stopped. so if i, when the bonus vega base season despite being knocked out and the jump is lea quarter finals. will they still say that ben is a successful season? really interesting question and that that brought a question of jim and football. what is success for these guys? a quarter final i think is about break even. and they're on track for their 11th straight bonus lay guitar to we can say that a few times and it never quite sinks in, but i think the some point winning the bonus. like once you get to 11, it's no longer a triumph. it's like the triple i credit writing for a bank. that's just yeah, it's back to that i do. business will launch an inquiry. i dont when the bonus iga
9:26 am
and how they measure success is in europe. and so last night going out, they measured themselves against the absolute best in manchester. city of the novels mon sacking is brutally ambitious. it's almost beautiful at so egotistical and such. you know that they the roosters in the room are buying in german football . but you look at what's coming in european football. they went out last night to manchester city, abu dhabi money manchester united, have a bid on the table from katara, newcastle. he nodded around by n b s. muhammad been summon, they're getting out. spent all brady and it's not, can i get any easier for buying if, if europe is the ultimate measure of success and it is for them, this is not going to get as useful. so a brief word on the champions league, semi finals, and who's left owns your money. that comes down to real madrid now against manchester city. the other, the other mats, don't worry about if you, if you need to know one name, it's earling holland. and it's that battle against
9:27 am
a rail, madrid rama trees are really the, the champions of europe. a meritus almost city, haven't won it yet. so it's is new money coming up against the old guard. and if you're just looking at one thing inside that semi final who's going to stop erling holland within that rail, madrid's one. thank you for that illuminating outlook as we have it from the w's vote. as it you're up to date more world news at the top of the hour next on the w. r magazine. focus on europe taking a closer look at organized crime groups here in jeff i with with
