yeah, well germany said 3 military plains and they've all made it safely, sarah. and all more than $300.00 diplomats indeed workers have been rescued including the families and where some you nationals on board to. and i understand more flights of plans should the security situation alone, more than 1000 german army soldiers were involved in this mission. and some of those are paratroopers and actually that the german been to stag normally would have to authorize such a mission. but that wasn't possible given the need for speed. and it comes a huge relief for, for officials. and those obviously been evacuated because this is during the week there was an attempt to rescue that was abandoned because of ongoing fighting. but a ceasefire over the weekend offered a short window to attempt to attempt to rescue. and ultimately, chancellor olive sholtes gave the go ahead on saturday evening. and the government here has been saying, basically that if the can do, will evacuate more people and a german levy rescue vishal vessel is also on route to ports or don and will into

9:09 am
silver senior researcher in sip raise military expenditure and arms production program, who joins us from stock on welcome to the program. thank you so much for joining us to trillion euros worldwide and military expenditure. that's an extraordinary number. how much of it went into more material like weapons tanks, fighter jets, etc? well, move are spending covers many things. one of them is military equipment. unfortunately, we don't have an estimate for the global total that went to motor movement. we do know that certain contacts are just europe, for instance, military equipment has been increasing now and because of the war now, but after the acquisition of crimea and joseph 14 equipment spending has been increasing. the same can be said about other context in the world. but we can see about the numbers that we have never spent so much on the military. the numbers now as, as just said, we are a new heights. the highest number since at least the end of the cold war. and the
9:10 am
comparison with the cold war is quite quite tally in the ninety's, after the cold war, we had a period of falling or spending. there was a period of period of optimism. it was a period of increase based institutions in cooperation. and what we're having now is really a period of now of increasing edge of political competition, of high perceptions. yeah. yes. so are you talking about some of the factors there? and i just wanted to dig down into the one that is probably on top of our viewers minds, which is the war in ukraine. are these increases all about that, or are there other trends that are behind this massive spending increase? well, in the case of ukraine, it's really the war. and what is interesting about the numbers in your brain is that that massive increase. all increase was really managed to decrease the frank, the gap between ukraine's and russia murderous benny in 2020. what your plans went to say it was about a 10 of russian meter spending, whereas in 2022,
9:11 am
it was half as much. and i spoke that really shows you transfer killian effort in this war. thank you so much for putting that into context for us. we appreciate diego lopez, that's silva joining us from separate from stockholm. we appreciate it. and here's a look at some other stories making news around the world. more than $68000000.00 was withdrawn from the troubled banking giant credit suisse in the 1st quarter of this year. client started rapidly pulling out money as the bank was caught up in market turmoil triggered by the collapse of to us. institutions. credit suisse is set to be taken over by its rival u. b. s. peruse ex president. alejandro toledo has been taken to a prison near lima after being extradited from the united states. he stands accused of receiving millions and bribes from a construction company during his time and office polito is potentially facing 20 years in prison. he denies the allegations from those little police in kenya has
9:12 am
found the bodies of another 26 suspected members of a christian cult. a total of $47.00 bodies have been found since friday. followers were reportedly told to starved themselves if they wanted to meet jesus. the pastor who led the colt has already turned himself into police. under the syrians protested in the rebel held city in live against recent efforts to normalize relations between president bashar assad regime and the wider era world. earlier this month, diplomats from 9 arab countries meant to discuss serious potential return to the arab league after a 12 year suspension. 6 billions of people have been vaccinated against coven, 19 the rapid development of vaccines to fight the corona virus is a major scientific success as the world health organization, marx world immunization week. although the jobs don't stop the spread of coven 19,
9:13 am
they help prevent serious illness. but despite their life saving potential, the availability and the uptake of coven 19 vaccines has varied hugely world wide. many studies have determined that vaccines developed to fight coven 19 saved a huge number of lives worldwide. as the number of approved vaccines as multiplied and recommendations from health care authorities have evolved, it's grown increasingly difficult to determine who is protected when a booster is necessary. and which one makes most sense. interest in vaccines has also fallen throughout much of 2021. over 30000000 doses were being administered every single day at peak times over 40000000. but recently that's dropped to just a few 100000 injections daily. according to the world health organization, around 70 percent of the world's population has received at least one dose of coven
9:14 am
19 vaccine. many people have had multiple shots, and over 13000000000 doses have been administered globally. but distribution remains unequal, while most of the world now averages to administer doses or more per inhabitant. india and russia are still reporting lower rates around 1.6 and 1.3 respectively. a few countries in africa have similar numbers, but rates over all on the continent and a few other places remain stubbornly low. in low income countries in general says the w h o only around 3 out of 10 people on average have received even a single dose of covered 19 vaccine. now india is currently experiencing a spike and co 19 cases. the surge is being driven by a new omnia chron, sub route variant of the virus, which effectively dodges immunity,
9:15 am
gained from vaccination and previous infections. but public health experts say that previous immunity is preventing severe infections. d, w, as many are chowdhury reports from delhi. in the us clinic and hospitals are crowded again. people are once more queuing up to see a doctor about cox, breathlessness and fever. this mall community clinic in delhi is seeing between 30 to 40 patients with cold like symptoms every day. at present, the sample positivity rate in the city is hovering between 25 to 32 percent. thank this point to a sub wearden of the only chronicle variant called x b b 1.16. as the cartridge behind the new speed of infectious layer was others. again, this is not a very severe variant yet that are just not causing the kind of infection in which the patient may face respiratory distress. weiss who needs intensive care with
9:16 am
oxygen support. this is i would love. busy it's mostly mild to your milder, despite the number of rise in cases most probably faces off till seen large crowds with no safety protocols being followed. the rising forward infections have caught the attention of the authorities as well. the deli government says that it's on high alert to deal with this, but in cases and that it is fully prepared to handle any kind of emergency doctor from the boil. a public health expert says that the latest variant is highly infectious and people should follow basic precautions and accept that the virus is here to stay. the lawless, although extend, sue, is again limited by the mutations are very hard to predict. legal by the historically does historical illnesses which we have seen for the past 100150 years . that data is available. it's likely to be less and less severe. with dine and lis burbs and lose some. busy lineages us on radians can keep on coming. the country so
9:17 am
far has seen 3 big leads of corona virus. according to the government, in 202290 percent of india's adult population had been fully vaccinated against corbett. but the numbers are still lagging when it comes to booster shots, healthy sports, one that india cannot afford to let its got down. the dramatic consequences of an unchecked pandemic are still fresh hill. and joining me now is doctor lance ella pinto, a consultant pulmonologist based in long by india, dr. can tow. how important is this world immunization week for india? as we've seen there the corona, virus situation and overall interest in vaccines falling. i said, and thank you for having me. i think it's important to constantly reiterate the value of back the nation and build on successes. i think it's easy to let your guard down once you noticed that a particular disease starts beaming. you, you,
9:18 am
of your people getting infected off your people having severe disease, then you automatically assume that it has gone away. and i think this is true for all diseases. i think the world immunization beek is a good opportunity for scientific communication to remind people of success stories . and remind people of how once upon a time in 15 diseases used to be a leading cause. the thickness of hospitalized nations in life expectancy used to be a locked noise because of infectious diseases and how not overcoming these challenges as happened through vaccination. i think it's important to bring it today, but it heard immunity through which immunization works and nobody is really safe until everybody is. so i think it's important, especially for individuals who haven't seem to be a booster shots, individuals who are high risk of having to be to be reminded. but it's extremely important. do not rest of the successes that we have achieved so far,
9:19 am
but to be constantly vigilant. how high is the faith in vaccines these days? would you say unfortunately, india has had a tradition of being quite open to backs, vaccinations, our colleges and the universe and immunization program has been quite high. traditionally and, and the vaccine hesitancy that the rest of the world often struggles with, has not been so much of a challenge in india. which again, is reflected in the fact that we weren't able to escalate the vaccination coverage reasonably quickly considering that it is such a large country. and people seem to realize that we have was advocated for new york but allocated small box. so they do realize that that is a value of immunization and i think i think there is in so much of a hesitancy, that being said, there does appear to be some heterogeneity across the country. in vaccination coverages, there does appear to be some disruptions that possibly have been caused by corbin
9:20 am
and i think therefore it's important to constantly communicate and remind individuals to make sure that they are vaccinations and up to date. so then, i mean, to your point we've heard reported that millions of kids missed out on essential childhood vaccinations during the pandemic. how do you then, specifically, how do you as a pulmonologist consult your patience? so i think called in some ways as it does in terms of the success had been mailed up. and a lot of that being attributed to the success of vaccinations, a lot of that being attributed to hybrid community by the past infection and vaccination site, constantly remind my patients that the reason we're having male they'll be able to now is thanks to the fact that a significant proportion of hers are now back needed. i constant gina made my patient patients about how j pneumonia has used to be a leading cause of death and that has been largely attenuated by the new walking vaccination, which is, which is a reasonably well covered in india. so i think,
9:21 am
i think it's important as, as an adult by my mother just we have vaccines for pneumonia and influenza, which we are constantly reminding our patients to take. thank you so much, doctor lance lap, pinto, consultant pulmonologist, based in by we appreciate it. thank you. ah, in the blender slager and the battle for champions the qualification is tighter than ever, are be leipzig new or when at direct rivals, lever coups and could prove vital as the campaign years. it's and, but they're red hot host insured things may well go down to the wire, an opportunity to strike a major blow in the race for champions league qualification. may labor cousins clash with light. seek a classic 6 pointer, and it was labor cruising who landed the 1st job. after 40 minutes. adam luke with the finish to make it one nil to the host's. mussa,
