ah ah ah, this is the w use lie from birth in dozens of people are dead after a stampede in yemen, most of the victims were crushed as they gathered in school to receive aid for ramadan. the hidden dangers of ukraine, experts say unexploded land mines cover a 3rd of the country. the report from the region of hockey and other failed cease

fire in sedan. thousands of civilians plea as fighting continues between the army and power. military forces had a 25 year old k help star found dead at his home in sol kilowatt, his sand rifled company executives is said to be in the shop. ah, i've been for solon welcome, at least 78 people, a dead and hundreds injured. after a stampeded yemen, the crush happened after a crowd of people gathered at a charity event in santa the capital of the impoverished nation. they were there to receive financial late during the muslim holy month of ramadan. our next report contains images you may find distressing. ah desperately trying

to free themselves, a security guards shouted at the crowd to turn back. others attempted to pull people from the mass of bodies but for many who had come in the hopes of receiving 5000 yamini rails or about h u. s. dollars. it was already too late. dozens of injured people were taken to local hospitals as were the bodies of the dead. one a shrill jimmy ala betty had been total, there were 78 people that were killed, yellow and marcella to her that the hospital has brought in 73 injured mom and some seriously injured. and so much less critical condition ought to be melted. bowan, what athene would associate, there are 2 patients in intensive care study and 13 others are in need of surgery.

yet they should. i was also saw lamazzo count upon officials from the who t rebel group which controls santa were quick to visit the injured moneisha. massa, we're experiencing a great tragedy of a large number of our people have died during this time. peter had the lawyer material had the officials also versus the scene of the stampede, where investigators already looking into the causes of the tragedy. some eye witness reports indicate that the crowd may have panicked due to gunfire. it's yet another bitter blow for yemenis, already suffering from more than 8 years of war and a devastating humanitarian crisis. earlier we spoke with journalists now says shaka in santa and asked about reports, the gunfire caused the panic. course. this is one of the rumors. ok, that according to a bill, i was mrs. they said the gun via kim asked that because the security of rush this

yeah, try to discourage people because as you sit in the room where i mean the entrance to the school where people were gathering is a minor is through the main street. ok. so hundreds of people were in, this is 3 and the main gate of the school is a stair. ok to want to miss is or one minute and ha, so the people in the video with the door, we were able to take some steps. you know, we can open them in so when the people opened the main gate and people right words, and this is what comes the and the is time b. as the born ukraine continues, people in some parts of the country are already working to rebuild on russian troops if destroyed. one of the biggest issues facing them is the threat posed by

land mines. ukraine's military estimates that a 3rd of the country is contaminated by anti personnel and anti vehicle mines, as well as unexploded or abandoned munitions expert. same will take years to clear such a bust area is particularly affects agricultural workers. ukraine was once one of the world's bread baskets, but now much of its foot, our land is too dangerous to be found. d, w max santa found this report from the formerly occupied territories of hockey. fully human should be dusting of tractors in sewing equipment, but he's got nothing left to work with. the russians were here and when they departed they took everything with them. both those are you still was this we michel what it

will be do we will close to the club? 0 dollars. so we'll go over with that a little of really for all the 3 of the more who nationally alicia, 30 people working here before the war. but since then his business lost half a 1000000 euros for a small company. that's devastating. it was a relief when the russians withdrew from the harkey region hearing, but they left a threat to the future, buried in the ground that they was the sci fi of a more furious sub boy. i need to mean, you know, well if you will see it that way, you see, if i still know what the decry you, most of the harder with the ground on it should be plowing and planting is too

dangerous to move heavy equipment on me for that simple to duncan, what was all over now? we still for which mob, which was dicky soon, putting in the hockey region is considered 100 percent contaminated by mines and unexploded ordinance. it's easy to find stuff, visit the tail of a missile. it contains the engine of a russian smash. who knows what's in the ground? no farming will take place on this soil until the place has been cleared by a professional de mining team. and this is the situation for thousands of farmers in many parts of ukraine. at the beginning of the season, we are about to learn that some people are willing to take their chances. yodi drove his tractor over a mile. he is lucky to be alive as the suit the booth abuse it though that

not on my love. she would deliver the light from the night of the car to wanna put on his mac mall of quote, he was well known blood v as in just not a mile away, but then google in there with zillow loser. despite the danger, he says he will continue to work and as he shows us to his own de mining, these are just a few of the things he found on the field. they f a n me f barrel, thumb t of someone who's from the figure logo grangee on the pedal. you may be in a bus, lead me at the 4th or 5th bureau off in fields across the region . demining teams like this from the halo trust are doing what they can to prevent this from happening. they're finding many different, dangerous auntie personnel minds with pressure plates on the person. oh, mind bonding fragmentation ah. mines ah grenades on trip wires and we

are finding all sorts of classroom ignition. used any grain on the vehicle lines in plastic and metal cases. they estimate that 30 to 40 percent of ukraine needs to be checked before being declared safe. we have people that not being able to walk on their own land on the own yards, co for picnic or walk freely because of the mines. in the other hand, they can't cultivate their land and which is stake. the most cases, the 1st, the source of income for the family other scenarios can be infer structure areas that are again contaminated just in ukraine. we are seeing the number of accidents increasing no matter how long the war lasts. the danger of minds will last much longer. former all the human has been waiting for help, but is now seriously considering trying to clear his fields himself. if he can't

get the seasons started, he says, people will leave and never come back. earlier i spoke to mike newton, he's a ukraine expert at the halo trust, a charity that helps countries recover from military conflicts. i asked him, what impact land mines have had on the civilian population of ukraine since war broke out on the impact of, of land mines? i think, despite the scale of the contamination, which is the largest in europe since world war 2. i think the scale of that and even the impacts has yet to be fully realized, needs to remember that this was still ongoing. and as we heard from the last couple of couple of reports, we know that ukrainian g d p is done by 25 percent agricultural is done by 30. this isn't just a, a localized regional problem. warning current is having a global impact. and unfortunately, bombers like the ones we heard from him, it's like a very difficult choice. it's either go out,

compare the fields and risk it out and risk their lives to one and livelihood made a living, or don't and potentially lose that likelihood. and, and i've seen from, from very personal experience around that, around the northern crane and was seeing this will labor that the, the difficult choice that the farmers are having it's, it, it is taking a coin toss. so i wonder what was coming, how many, how many tractor ex i've seen, but what needs to be done to make ukrainian soil safe again. so 1st and foremost, what needs to be done is a systematic, wide scale process, the stumps to the extent of the contamination. we've heard as much as 40 percent of the crane is contaminated and that's i wouldn't say that would you tend to contaminate to i would say that 40 percent or up to 40 percent of the crane has been exposed to conflict. but what's important is to identify where that contamination really is to process of widespread mapping. we already have,

we already have several 100 people in the 700 people in the train. going to grow that to $1200.00 by the end of this year. if you can identify the extent of contamination can see where landmines are. you can equally see whether or not with a great degree of ability. and that's the 1st step to opening up. agricultural labs be safely obstinate. and can you be more specific as to how long the threat of landmines could exist in ukraine than, than just the use? well, give you a to give you an idea, try to full scale invasion last year. we need to remember that this was going to start last year. this was actually been been going on for years and 2014 back in 2021. we did a, a baseline assessment of the contamination in don bass before the invasion, the contamination that was going to take us 20 years with canada was

a funding. so what we're looking at now we need to do with this was still ongoing and it could be quite some time we are looking at then at decades. this is an polco intergenerational problem. and a huge job. i mean, you just ran through the numbers before, have you got enough help if you got enough people on the ground trying to solve this problem for ukrainians? not right now. no, we, we don't, it's all we need to remember this war is still ongoing. so there is something of a we will, we do need is continued levels of support. we need to look at this. i think this is key. we to look at this conflict and the issues posed by law lives in the broader picture of recovery and reconstruction, increasing the numbers that are being talented. we're looking at 411000000000 euros for recovery reconstruction, which up to 40000000000 years, has been a marks for the mining and clearing explosive hazards. those are staggering.

staggering numbers on the halo, trusted world's largest human, much humanitarian, like pencil concession. we are the largest and ukraine, and we work alongside the printed governments. the that the states most services board really needed is a long term commitment to train to the marketing see this revised area and you had to scale the, the problem there. and the huge task at hand from michael newton from the heather trust. thank you very much for your analysis and insight today. thank you. let's have a look at some of the other stories making news. nato secretary general un salt book has made his 1st visit to ukraine since the russian invasion in a show of support. as keith prepares, the possible counter offensive book paid his respects to fallen ukrainian soldiers and reviewed damaged russian military equipment. most goes, bolshoi theatre has dropped the ballet about legendary russian dancer rudolph ray of general director flooded mueller in says the move is linked to the government's

there is no bread anymore. no food, no water thing, no gasoline. shit up in the sydney's capital on the river nile feels like a ghost time. a latest attempt to cease fire between the army and a paramilitary force has failed. just over the head of the army and the deputy. the head of the rest have shared power into don since 2021, and signed to deal with political parties in december 2022. it's going 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 capital. 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. there is a delay to then really needed adequate medical care. and that's hurtful when we have a little bit of infrastructures. unfortunately, that's even worse for places all of hard 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 anytime soon. theodore murphy is director of the africa program. it european council on foreign relations. i asked why it's so hard for a sci fi to hold in sudan. i think that the political will, isn't there? yes. the 2 parties who are fighting the sudanese army and the militia, called the r s f, have come to come to blows because there is an unresolved real political conflict between them. i think for the moment they've resolved to resort to force and they

are fighting it out. now you've managed various emergency response missions in several countries including sedan. what are you hearing about the humanitarian situation? simply put, it's terrible. i think one of the major difficulties and the causes of humanitarian crisis is that there is urban warfare going on. so one of the complex parties, one of the warring parties, the r s f as many of its spaces within the city center. the other, the army is using an air force to fight the are so so you have to picture a situation where they're small bases inside a heavily populated urban center. the attack both on ground but also from the air. the civilian casualties are unavoidable situation. could this turn into a full scale civil war? sure, it's a question of definition. i mean, in a way, it's already

a civil war where having basically 2 armies fighting each other to national army, the one is the official one. the other, the, our staff is one that's been acting as a kind of parallel army. what we need to worry about now is not as a civil war, but of this conflict drawing in the region. so the neighboring countries have an interest in what happens in sudan, and they favor different parties, either the army or the, we're already seeing early signs that they're getting involved in supporting one or the other. so, is there a way to politically solve, diplomatically solve this whole situation? there is what, what the objective needs to be now, and the 1st instance is the station of possibilities. to be clear, that's not a political solution. that's just a quieting down a cooling off period. the way to make that work is to get the maximum amount of

international pressure on the 2 parties. and you do that by being completely united . that means actors all the way ranging from the united states to europe, to the immediate neighbors of sudan, completely get on the same page and all give the same message to the 2 general that they absolutely have to stop the fighting. that way there's a chance they don't murphy from the european council on foreign relations. thank you very much for giving us your take on the fighting there. in sudan in football, the champions league semi finalists are now set in stone by munich. have crashed down despite drawing one all against bench as the city, the 3 nil loss in the 1st lake sealed the effect. the english champions will face real madrid in the final 4. in wednesdays, other quarter final in milan progressed after a thrilling 3 old drawer against ben pico saw them when the ty, 5 free on aggregate, at sets up a fiery italian darby against fierce city rivals. ac milan,

australia experienced its 1st total solar eclipse in over a decade. western australia witnessed about a minute of complete darkness as the sun and moon lined in an eclipse that could also be seen in parts of indonesia and east team all. around 20000 star gazes from all corners of the globe, descended on the remote coastal town of ex mouth. it was one of the best vantage points to enjoy the rare events, and the skies were cloudless. wildly up to the stars and to the u. s. where the largest rocket system in space history is about to lift off from you're looking at live pictures from the launch at the space x star base in brownsville, texas. the star ship aircraft attached to the top of a powerful, super heavy rock. it is supposed to lift off in just a few minutes. a 1st attempt to launch on monday failed due to a problem with

a valve in a few moments will know if the 2nd attempt does go ahead as planned. on how can 9 we use the chemical called the tab if it's a higher fork materials that means when you mix the 2 together, you produce lame kicks out that green characteristic arc. and while we wait for the launch, let me bring in sofa bonnie from d w science. so. busy good to see you. what makes this launch so special? what makes this long? so special a heck of a lot. and this is what if this works, this will be the biggest launch vehicle that the world has ever seen. its powers, a 120 meters into the sky that said the rocket, which is itself about 69 to 70 meters. and then you've got the actual spacecraft, which is another 50 meters. um this thing is,

is huge. should be able to carry up to a 100 people in future missions if this works. the other thing that makes this particular style of rocky especially is that it's reuse ability. so space x uses reusable rockets already such as the falcon 9. but this one, it should be entirely reusable, which is quite incredible if you see how it will be reusable, but flips in air, that could be the rocky cell past due just it's just phenomenal is certainly the illustrations because it's never done it yet. but it is quite a special thing and of course it's the aim is to get people back to, to the moon in the next couple of years. is that so the recycling, not just the fuel tanks themselves, but the actual space crack. yes. so it's, it's, it's 2 parts. you've got this rocket that basically lifts everything up,

which is actually the majority of the vehicle. and what will happen, what that does, you choose the, the actual spacecraft out into the, into our atmosphere, our upper atmosphere. and then at some point, the rockies flips back and then sends that there's a backbone, a boost as it were, and send itself back to worth. what normally happens with rockets is you have a central core and you have other boosters at the side and they fall off and they land in the ocean and then they, they rust and some people say it's ok for ocean happy tax. fish like that sort of stuff, but the only other hand, it's just it's, it's more space, more forms of space debris that we just dump where we like. and we've seen at over the many decades that countries of being traveling at space. and quite recently, we've seen this also with chinese missions where they allow bits of rockets to fall uncontrollably out of the sky. and i use that term advise me because there are ways

of controlling the re entry of a rocket. you know exactly where it's going to land that went land on a populated area and the uncontrolled ways where you just let it fall that worth and, oh, that is disintegrates in the atmosphere or whatever. so this rocket comes back and i'm sticking with the rocket. eventually, the idea is that the rocket should be caught. you can see on the images where the rock is now is this is thing that's holding the rock it upright. well, a similar sort of a device, all towel is called a cat shows and spoke to catch this rocky. it won't do that on this this, this with this mission, this test mission. if this goes ahead, if this works out, that must joke himself. let's just try not to blow up the launch site. if the rocket makes it up into the sky, it will come down then lan, back down the water. a soft landing on water. it was spacecraft. if i still got

another couple of minutes before this normally takes place, one other, couple minutes. i'm the spacecraft on this particular mission, my own and land somewhere in the pacific also on water. the idea is that that will also become well in every case. it's supposed to be these bits of posted land in areas where they're easy to retrieve so that they can be used. and we constitute for future mission. because that really is the thing, is that many cost loads of money to, to, to develop these rockets to build them. and there's a bit of hyperbole when space it says, oh actually you know, the only thing you're gonna have to pay for once you pay the basic cost of the rocket and that is the fuel and that's pretty cheap. well, actually nothing in space is cheap, but essentially you are cutting costs a little bit in a good way. yeah. so that it's supposed to be reasonable in that sense. to get to space more often people say,

really the big question here is the if factor you mentioned that before yourself. ellen, moscow said there's a 5050 chance that the spacecraft will bridge orbit on it. stay view. what, what, what makes the mission so complicated? well, we'll make this. every space mission is complicated. i mean, we saw on it's on the 1st attempt that we had lee, he was going to say a leaky belt, but they say that there was some moisture on this. val them fat froze, and that's terrible because you need these valves to work properly for the rockets to boost in the engine is to create ignition fast, just like it's a tiny bit of a can, can, can cause a huge change in a situation and create them pressure difference within the tab, which is where you're storing this. this gas is also a because i think the countdown has begun

just a minute to listen in the nuts and we'll see if we can get you more information to share and see a whole lot of smoke but not a lot of movement. zullie just as we do continue to wait, if this does go ahead, what's going to happen next will if you look very closely, usually these rocket mortgage is you might see a burden to flying above. and that's usually quite exciting. now really going to be doing the final checks, so the fuel would have been loaded. you know, the count down starts about 2 hours in this case 2 hours before the actual launch account. and we normally think of these 10 seconds and model and seconds. gum mum roll, so watching the live broadcast is that okay? so they'll just be testing fine. all sort of instruments to make sure that

things in place and at some point, see, i'm just looking at my list here. i think it about a 2nd the or before the launch. they should start to iraq. lee, the rector lockheed engines are filling. will it really that and see a 2. i reckon we'll hear that everywhere across the globe. the speakers can appeal out. and this is ally, i wanted to ask you one other question before take off, nasa has its own heavy rocket called s l s, and it is competition part of the process here. here we're talking about a private venture arm where we are talking about private venture, but you know, space sakes and nasa are, are deep in each other's pockets. certain fan, nasa. right. going back to the apollo era of moon landings in the sixty's late sixty's in a very early seventy's. they couldn't have done that without commercial.
