[000:00:00;00] ah ah ah ah, you're watching the news live from berlin, millions of sudanese face of food and water shortages as violence grips the country . international aid groups warned that civilians are running low on crucial supplies. meanwhile, operations are under way to evacuate thousands of foreign nationals at the country

. coming up on the meeting of ammunition supplies aboard your crate, you foreign ministers are needing to overcome disagreement on how to replenish depleting stocks. sounding the alarm will look at why these activists move themselves to the street in the german capital and in sports labor cruise in continue their charged war champions, league qualification. busier, why pick to extend their unbeaten street to 13 matches later in the show will bring you the best of the speaker. ah, well, i'm clare richardson. thank you so much for joining us. food and water supplies in the sudanese capital har. 2 are running low as clashes between the army and paramilitary forces spread through residential areas. brutal street fights between forces aligned with the 2. rival generals are raging for

a 2nd week. at least for 120 people have been killed and thousands more injured. many of the entered are unable to get to hospitals and even when they can, there is a shortage of medical supplies. i welcome you all the while dang, a sudanese american international development consultant who's following the developments in her home region from turkey. thank you so much for taking the time . it has been more than a week since fighting broke out. can you tell us how things are looking for people living in har to now? sure. so i have been in contact with people there just for clarification subsidies . the situation is pretty grim. fighting is entered into a 2nd week. people are still stuck at home. people are trapped in buildings. it's very difficult for civilians to get food to get water cooking fuel.

most of the public utilities infrastructure has essentially collapsed, whether it's have come, come under attack, or the employees themselves have either fled or are stuck within their own homes. so as a result, the situation is quite dire. cartoon is a heavy, very dense urban area of approximately 5000000 people. very difficult to have access to any kind of food or water outside of the usual commercial structures. so people are. 2 really tough for right now. now, as we've heard, foreign nationals are being evacuated at doesn't sound like a vote of confidence from foreign governments. our people, they're afraid that these rival generals will escalate their fighting once the international community isn't they are watching. i think that's definitely a fear it is interesting for me as an analyst in the region to watch the evacuation thing. obviously, a lot of it is

a response to credit an upstream upstream response to criticism that could be received with regards to evacuation after what had happened in afghanistan or in libya. but for those were on the grounds, many have not been able to leave or have not been able to evacuate. we also know that a lot of the employees of the un and other organizations made themselves also leave . so for sure, there is definitely a fear that this could mean that the fighting will escalate and that will be more and more difficult to to, to report any types of abuses. this being said, the, for the community, the international committee was also quite under attack. these last couple of days and so far the, the fighting have attacked diplomats has attacked hospitals. so it, it doesn't seem so much that the international community being there was able to prevent the extent of the fighting and the,

the human rights and civilian tragedies occurring right now. and can i make a difference from the outside? do you think, what kind of international pressure you think is needed for the fighting to end? well, i think that it can make a difference because i do think that quite a few countries who are concerned about issues such as the intelligence at their embassies and worried about potential hostage situations and with their staff leaving it does make it somewhat easier for them to perhaps be a bit more firm. we do know that the you had described that one of their embassy have been breached. they didn't get into specifics about which force was behind that. likewise, the u. s. had mentioned that one of the diplomatic convoys had been attacked, they didn't mention which side had been behind that maybe it's unclear but i suspect that there is. a pretty clear intelligence into, into that was do things with them being out of the country and not being, you know,

having their public officials and being out of the country. it does make it easier for them in that sense to be a lot more firm and specific in terms of condemning what's going on. well, thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us today on that as well. thank falling development for us in sudan. i mean was, was mentioned, hundreds of foreign diplomats and citizens have been evacuated from hard to me for an offices have been rushing to transport their system back home and fighting shows no sign of abating. more than a 1000 european union citizens are among those being evacuated. germany has air listed 300 people out of sudan, including german citizens and other foreign nationals. vacuum have been flown out on 3 plains, the 1st of which touched down in berlin today. for more on that, i'm joined now by d. w. political correspondent, benjamin over us group are in berlin. benjamin foreign governments are evacuating

their citizens from sudan. what can you tell us about germany's efforts specifically? it's an l lifting operation, so the 1st part is taking them out of cartoon. oh, fun in the airport that is secured. and then sending them over to daughter and where several soldiers german soldiers have been station and have been preparing this mission for several days. now it's a military base around 100 kilometers east of a man of jordan's capital, and from there thou then boarded to civilian plains. you just mentioned the 1st one that arrived at the early morning hours at 6 am here in berlin. but we have still that number of around 300 people, half of them being german, that's information that we got from officials and half of them. so around 150 people from other nationalities. and that's something the german government has been stressing that they, according aiding with partners to see how they can also evacuate citizens from other not only european countries, but also from other countries who needs to be evacuated from sudan right now. and

can you tell us more about which other countries are carrying out evacuations and what their efforts look like? so some countries have already finished the recreation ever when it comes to the diplomatic personnel. and the families were from the you asked that they already a close, their embassy and cartoon. others like france who are also doing something similar but not like the germans and jordan, but in g booty so close to sudan, the 1st mission, that's a difficult part actually get them out of the reach. and we still heard that there is heavy fighting, going on, and then sending them to other places that are coordinating it with her from a japan, from the us, from france. and you have to imagine that they are several forces involved when we look at, for example, the german of equation. we have police, we have the army, we have special forces, we're also working there. those, what's difficult is to have contact with the people who are there and that's why authorities also bring in a reluctant to give us any updates, any numbers, because the situation is changing. it's difficult to get in touch with the

nationals who are already there and then of course to have to be registered when they arrive in jordan to then be sent to berlin. but this is anal lifting operation that will continue for several more days. and they say that as long as the situation allows it, as long as they can still continue doing this, they will try to get out as many people as possible. they are coordinating with partners to see what other countries can do if there are other possibilities, not only now live, but for example, also it taking the land true if it's possible to leave the country like that. but it's an ongoing operation. we're still waiting for any additional information to see when the next planes are scheduled to arrive here in berlin. thank you, sasha ran up to see that our political correspondent, regiment of escrow was her attention now to an e. u plan to support ukraine. foreign ministers are meeting and luxembourg. today to discuss keeps appeal for more weapons and ammunition in its fight against russia . the ministers are debating

a 1000000000 euro procurement plan to boost ukraine's weapon supplies as part of a joint arms deal. but there happened disagreements among member states. the use foreign policy chief, joseph brown says those must be resolved soon. ukraine's foreign minister joined the meeting for mostly and called for urgent action. i spoke earlier wednesdays, rosie burkhard, who's following the meeting in luxembourg forest. i asked her about the main points of contention over supplying ukraine with ammunition will the earth he need has been facing pretty public frustration from ukraine over the implementation of this plan. i say the word implementation because there was a broad political agreement on this plan to shore up supplies of ammunition for you . craig weeks ago. already know it's a multi track approach on one track. the european union is a helping to reimburse funds for member states to draw down on their own supplies of ammunitions, which they already have their own stockpiles and send them on to ukraine. know that

particular approach is already underway and that's something which ukraine up thank the european union for. but the heart of the debate know at these talks lies on the 2nd problem of this approach. and that is where the you is supposed to be jointly procuring ammunition for ukraine for the future. now, there is some legal wrangling going on behind closed doors over the exact definition of what it means to procure ammunition from the e. you arms industry. so from companies based in the you and we're talking really here about detail such us where our components in certain supply chains, a source for them. or if there's a european union based company which might have a factory outside the block. now, some ministers that i've spoken to simply dismiss this bureaucratic others, however, and i think particularly the worth noting here that we understand the france is the one leading this debate. well, it's very genuinely held belief and desire to try and be thought that you use own arms industry for the future on the one hand to deliver on those promise is to stay

by key of site for as long as it takes. and on the other hand, to also back fill their own ammunition, stockpiles and adapt to this radically changed security architecture in europe, which the war and ukraine has brought about. no damage for collab virtually addressed a foreign ministers here in luxembourg. but it would perhaps better be described as for the virtual dressing dine. because what i've heard is that he used very stern language to urge a swift and a sweet speedy or approval of that 2nd try on joint procurement of ammunition. perhaps that will get ministers talking more. i don't expect any full resolution at these talks, but perhaps among the levels of ambassadors who are lower lower level and technical discussions in the coming days. and of course, what ukraine will tell me to service is that this is not a technical matter at all, but rather a matter of life and death, i think is how ukraine is framing this. ok, so still some sticking points in the same as your buying plan. thank you so much for that update that is due to these blessings are chart. now i spoke with you have

you corresponded roman contractor in teams and asked him what you crane needs from its western allies. well, is easier to say what your grain doesn't need, or maybe it needs less urgently, which would be lighter, arms, small arms or all the rest are especially things like tangs like artillery, armoured vehicles, all that ukraine needs that and the ukranian foreign minister, mitchell, clever, mentioned all those heavy weapons when he spoke to the e. u foreign ministers today via video link. so he also spoke about ukraine and fight a fighters wanting to start training on western types of fighter jets like f sixteens . but the west is very reluctant to, to do that at this moment. at least you can also needs electronic warfare. this is what we hear here in the ukraine from ukraine and military experts that are at the corvette ukraine urgently needs. shells, shells, and shells. once again,

because the cronies preparing it's a major offensive, it is not clear when it will start, but it is expected that during that offensive ukraine we'll, we'll need much more ammunition than before. and with that excited counter offensive looming, can you tell us where things stand right now in frontline battles or the fighting continues along the front line in the east, in the don bus region. be through the city of baltimore being the focal point of that fighting or the ukrainian forces are very slowly losing ground. their russians are advancing, but also very, very slowly and ukrainians continue to hold the the city of blackmore, ukrainian president vladimir lensky. erm once again mentioned in an interview how important that city is to protect a several cities and towns just a close to behold a few of the worst. and the command of the training ground forces visit the region . also,

i am maybe trying to stabilize the situation. so experts here in key if are saying that we are probably approaching a tipping point where ukrainian forces could be forced to retreat or to a start a counter offensive. it may be on a limited scale to still do russian advance by behold, i'm interesting that we heard a drone attack in crimea over the sea, according to russian. so says, at least 3 thrones were, were there at night. and it looks like ukraine is testing russian defense lines, testing the russian lexi fleet ahead of the march expected offensive operation. thank you so much for bringing us up to see where that is at roman a contract or reporting for us from team we can bring up to speed now it's not the other store is making is around the world's global military spending rose to a record high last year, driven by the war and you crank at $2.00 trillion dollars. it was the 8th consecutive record rise. according to an annual report on defense spending by the

stock on international research institute in europe and growth reached its highest level since the end of the cold war. a russian court has denied bail for a suspect in a bombing that killed a pro war military border. darya couple, far as accused of presenting flatland to tar ski with a statuette which exploded, killing him and injuring 50 others in st. petersburg earlier this month. according to russian media, couple of us says she didn't know what was in the statuette and was only delivering, at least in kenya, a 50 audi's have now been assumed from a mass grave. it suspected they were followers of a christian cult, who believed they would go to heaven if they starved themselves. the suspected cult leader has been arrested. and in germany's berlin and humbug, airports have faced major disruptions. falling trade union strikes in berlin, all departures and nearly a quarter of landings have been canceled for the day. the security and ground service workers are striking,

overpay and climate activists here in berlin briefly brought traffic to a halt in parts of the city by glueing themselves to the streets. is the latest protest by the group known as last generation to pressure the government to take tougher action against climate change. activists superglue their hands on the asphalt, to block a berlin highway, the result kilometer long traffic jams in the western part of the city. protests by the last generation group aimed to paralyzed traffic across the capitol. there staging sit ins at 30 locations to draw attention to climate change. an amazing number of people from all over germany have come to berlin and that's what counts yet. been, will people having the courage to go out on the streets and demonstrate the important thing is to make it clear that what we're doing right now is what matters . we don't have any more time to wait up to what police are preventing road blocks

in many places like here in trap tow. around 500 officers are on duty as on lookers way in on the action now, but i'm not really sure what this accomplishes except causing chaos in the city. yet there's been a while. me, eleanor's let's gun. i thought it is actually not ok to block people on their way to work. the idea tell idea is good with but many which they did measures are 2 extreme already got mondays. chaos was no surprise. the last generation activists had announced the protest would occur demanding the government do more for climate protection. while billions of people have been vaccinated against coven 90, throughout the development of vaccines to fight the crone of virus, is a major scientific success story as the world health organization, marx world immunization week. although the jobs don't stop the spread of coven 19, they do help prevent serious illness. despite their life saving potential, the availability and uptake of coven 19 vaccines has varied hugely around the

worlds. many studies have determined that vaccines developed to fight coven 19 saved a huge number of lives worldwide. as the number of approved vaccines has 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 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 overall 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 covey. 19 vaccine, or india is currently experiencing a spike and coven 19 cases. the 3rd is being driven by a new owner cron. some variant of the virus which dodgers immunity gained from vaccination. and from previous infections of public health. experts say that previous immunity is preventing severe infections. he'd have his near ach, harvey reports from delhi,

india clinics and hospitals are crowded again. people are once more queuing up to see a doctor about pulse bed live miss and feeble. this more community clinic in delhi is seeing between 30 to 40 patients with core. we'd like symptoms every day. i present the sample positivity rate in the city is hovering between 25 to 32 percent . scientists point to a sub bearden of the only chronicle with variant called x b, b 1.16 as the cartridge behind the new speed of infectious layer. bizarre this again, this is not a very severe variant yet. it's not causing the kind of infection in which the patient may face respiratory distress. why she needs intensive care with oxygen support. this is our lab. busy it's mostly mild to your mild her. despite the number of rise in cases most probably faces off till seen large crowds with no safety protocols being followed. the rising corbett 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. dr. sandeep coil, a public health expert, says that the latest variant is highly infectious and people should follow basic precautions and accept that the virus if he'll defeat the lawless. although extends who is again, limited by the mutations are very hard to predict legal by the historical leader historical illnesses which we have seen for the past. her 950 years, that data is available. it's likely to be less and less severe. with dine and lis bergson, this sub lineage is a song that ins can keep on coming. the country so far has seen 3 big leaves 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. a dramatic consequences of an unchecked pandemic are still fresh he'll we spoke earlier to dr. len slip pinto, a consultant pulmonologist based in mon, by india. and we asked him why vaccines are still an important tool in fighting co . 5th 19. 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 you guys down once you noticed that a particular disease, meaning you, you, are 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 fact, you used to be leading cause the thickness of hospitalized nations in bed. life

expectancy used to be locked noise because of infectious diseases and how not as overcoming these challenges as happened through vaccination. i think it's important to bring it today, but it could immunity through which immunization was and nobody is really safe until everybody is. so i think it's important, especially for individuals who haven't received the of the booster shots, individuals were high risk of having to be to be reminded. but it's extremely important. do not rest on the success that we have achieved so hard, but to be constantly vigilant. ah, some 14 for you now in the bonus legal with the battle for champions we qualifications tighter than ever or be like a new, a win at their direct rivals leave or cruise and could provide us the campaign nurses and but their red hot hosts ensured things may well go down to the wire. i don't put unity to strike a major blow in the race, but champions li, qualification made labor occasions class with the light. take
