5:02 pm
medical fairly it's good to have you with us. the u. s. coast guard says and investigation is underway to find out why the submersible used to visit the wreck of the titanic imploded. all 5 people on board were killed and the incident was already se pieces of the vessel i've been found on the ocean floor, around 500 meters from the titanic experts. henry safety concerns about the sub before embarked on the journey. after days of age, in searching rescue efforts for the titan took a grim to the u. s. coast guard. along with canadian british and french teams scale with 20000 square kilometers. they are expensive search, i'm covering pieces of the gas it on the ocean floor and the r o v are remote operated vehicle from the vessel horizon. our tech discovered this house cone of the titan submersible,
5:03 pm
approximately 1600 feet from the valve. of that diatonic on extreme prussia appears to have crushed the 6 and a half minutes of vsl killing. the 5 main on board included the pilot, who was also the c e o of the company leading the petition ocean gate. the company was on its food trip to explore the titanic despite its various safety concerns about its expeditions to the deep sea wreak. it's just, it's just true tragic and a terrific and it's unnecessary. and by the way, it's not lost on me as, as somebody who's studied the, the meaning of titanic it's, it's greater meaning to us, you know, historically and societally, that it's about warnings that were ignored, that ships line at the bottom of the ocean,
5:04 pm
not because of the nature of its steel or the nature of its compartments. but just because of bad seamanship, the company released a statement, expressing condolences for the families of those killed. the passengers included a french submarine expected, a british billionaire and to pakistani british and business tycoon and his son rescue his couldn't consume with the bodies of those killed could be recovered. so this is a incredibly unforgiving environment down there on the sea floor. and the debris is consistent with a catastrophic implosion of the vessel. and so we'll continue to work and continue to search the area down there. but i don't have an answer for our prospects at this time. underwater. broad fonts,
5:05 pm
we keep searching for clues about what happened to the tyson. its remains now lying alongside the reach its fish out to explore on the atlantic ocean floor. my goal? yeah, made history 23 years ago as the 1st correspondent to report from the wreck of the titanic during a dive in a similar vessel to the titan is shared his thoughts with us after hearing the tragic news us? yes, absolutely. you know, it was not the outcome we wanted, but it was the outcome that was consistent with the evidence right from the get go . nicole, it was clear to me just from the evidence. we don't have time to get into the details that they, they had suffered a catastrophic loss. here's the thing. i went down in the titanic, i got stuck for more than 30 minutes. seemed like an eternity. and i was just so worried that these poor souls were having to suffer a long and hard death. the one consolation, the one consolation is, think about this. they were only one minute,
5:06 pm
one hour and 40 some minutes into their dive. so they were excited, they were about to get to the bottom, they didn't quite make it to the bottom. and then this is catastrophic. a compression event happened and then they didn't even know what hit them. so as i think about it, i just so thankful that they didn't have to suffer a long, cold, painful death. it was instantaneous. they weren't even aware of it. yeah. and this must be heading very close to home for you having experience something come up there. yeah, so yes, absolutely, because when we got stuck in the propeller of the titanic and i was on a russian vessel that was originally designed for scientific research. so it was a very serious special design for a very serious purpose as opposed to titan, which was designed for tourism. but my submarine is a 3 man, sab gives me a diving body and a pilot. we got caught in the blaze of the propeller of the titanic because of a fast underwater moving current that just drove us in there. and it was really because of the scale of our pilot. it was a former russian mig pilot,
5:07 pm
a person used to dealing with life and death. and you know, is keeping his cool under pressure that i'm here talking to you today because when you're down there 2 and a half miles below the surface of the atlantic ocean, you can't call a towing service like you can if your car is stuck in the mud to pull you out. if it hadn't been for victor, my pilot, i would not have survived that. i would have joined the other people who are down there, lost their lives and the titanic and forever for that i am forever grateful. what are the lessons that we can, we can draw from this terrible tragedy to things nicole that i took away from my own experience. number one, the ocean is a very dangerous place. it's not a playground. okay, so this notion of tourism needs to take into consideration the danger of the ocean when the night before i drove, i looked out over the north atlantic, the last thing the people who died in the titanic. so i wanted to see it with my own eyes. it's a restless beast, just waiting for you to make one mistake. it will swallow you up,
5:08 pm
you'll never be seen again. and 2nd, this is not just the uh, site from the shipwreck. this is where more than a 1000 men, women, and children breed their last. this is their final resting place. it's a great side, it's sacred ground. so if we're going to continue with this tourism, i really urge people to take those 2 things into consideration. the sheer danger of it. this is not a joy ride. there's a not a disney land destination, and the sacredness of this site. we shouldn't trespass as likely as scientists and journalist michael again, thank you so much for your view and for sharing your story with us. thank and call in germany has a skills shortage doctors, teachers and tech workers are all in short supply. so the government is now looking to recruit new talent and make the country more attractive to foreigners. with anita qualification, not means changing the laws around immigration to bring in more people from outside the u. v. and it's a step towards making germany
5:09 pm
a more attractive destination for emigration. members of the board to stuck on friday said yes, the changing the skilled workers will be able to put out. we need to be more open to bright minds and hot working hands. we need to get better at competing for global talent. and this low is making sure of that. experts say each year gemini needs about $400000.00 skilled workers to come to the country from abroad to fill the gaps. the hope is that this new law with a small flexible rules could entice more professionals. that changes mean people with the university degree and the job offer. you'll find it easier to get the residency permit in germany. i to specialist i in high demand and in some cases won't even need to have a degree to come work here. then you little problem is this less through a prosy and a so called opportunity card for those skilled workers who wants to find
5:10 pm
a job. after arriving into money. there are also new rules for qualified asylum seekers. what over to here, those to be food qualification. so we will be able to access the labor market. this has to be a by making it possible for people to participate here and treating them with respect. that's the only way it can work. what may look good on paper, it could be very different in practice. critics one that by lowering the salary threshold, people could be paid unfairly or even exploited. and how quickly the storage is be able to process based applications. remember, this is a country where many government agencies still you use fax machines. gemini was recently, will, did the worst place for foreign workers in the survey looking at issues such as access to housing and digital infrastructure. there is a global competition for skilled labor and germany has some catching up to the presidents of the south ukraine or reeling from atrocities they say occurred when
5:11 pm
they were trying to escape catastrophic flooding. earlier this month, the flooding was triggered by a breach and the cough got down on the new pro river survivors and the person regent accuse russian forces of firing on them as they fled their homes. and russian held areas. and the state or national, is also criticized russia for what it calls a callous disregard for human life. accusing moscow. failing to rescue those tromped and flood waters. the w is taking a look at how the pro kremlin news channels coverage of the story compares the reality on the ground. i was off to the hopes good um burst under ukrainian rescue team is searching for life on the front lines of the was owed. when i drew and signed something stirring in a home and russian occupied headed 3 young relies, i got out of the window, sat on the move, and i witnessed a truly apocalyptic scenes. houses are floating by
5:12 pm
a rule. that's when i just raised my hands to the skies and said, my lord, tell me what to do, what can i do for them to save my kids? she almost instead of with the make sure that the was her prayers were answered by the ukrainian military who braved flood walter, an enemy sniper fire, to evacuate custody to her kids. and the families caught the switches. and when we saw the guys in a boat once were coming for us, and i cannot put this feeling into words, thoughts, my god, i was crying all the way to here sign up that over you go to such missions or fault with danger. ukraine says best boots you chose, russian forces firing on a rescue boat. the smoke from an upper window unmistakable.
5:13 pm
it happened several times. they say 3 people were killed and 10 were injured in the attacks. vitaly caught in the act was one of them. friends and family have come to grieve for a man who was killed while trying to flee. who will be, will you be then the ministry. i have no words for them. do you shooting at the boats with children, women, elderly people from all civilians. you know that very well. those were simple, villagers were evacuated, the so it keeps up probably the doors as well as attacks on evacuation efforts. russia is accused of abandoning the residents under which control joseph called was there, but it wasn't the most of the time. the pro government use in russia know is to be
5:14 pm
fed a very different story. ok, that's good news. we just were fast the blast at the dime as a ukrainian terrorist attack claim. russia is carrying a repair. works under shelling from ukrainians. coverage of evacuations is full of both. it's about russia's general issue, monetary and aid for victims, some of whom are paraded before russian government cameras to offer praise. say, no, i congratulate everyone. let me. i'm thankful to the russians with grateful that they've helped us with clothes and food and medicine and use the ability to come back. can you quine and controlled hassle and really of all or remembers it differently? she and her family are among the 150 people rescued from russian hail. technically, this is getting it up to me, but of the size russian for the ration provided. nothing. we live up whole much,
5:15 pm
you know, age well no evacuation. they abandoned people alone. with a disaster, some of the search for flood survivors is now over, but the search for the truth may never end. joining me now as easily as russia. analysts constantly i guy who's in vilnius and lithuania, welcome back. let's start with a cough. got them itself, ukraine and russia continue to blame each other for its destruction. but what evidence is there so far as well? because there is no evidence in this, in a sense that no one is investigating it. no one can do it because russians, i'm not losing anyone near the whatever remains of the dam model. there's not going to be any investigation on the russian side because of the go hold to hold good territory. another couple is on the russian control. just because the russian
5:16 pm
government decreed about 10 date so a week before that that was destroyed, that no such events would be investigated in difficult or i think it is the, the documents that in world like condition in the bang service condition. so there's not going to be any negotiation, even according to official roof and documents, but according to what has been learned about it by, by journalist about colleagues, for example, it seems that the damn was blown up internally with a charge that was placed inside the technical channel that went through to them that could have only been done by people who complain to them at the time and this was the russian occupied forces. there was no evidence of no evidence that the debt was shouted because to break it top to make it bust with showing, well, we need a very, very consistent the long term showing which does not happen. we don't have any
5:17 pm
evidence so that so it looks as if the den was destroyed by the references, the accepted version. mostly. now the experts say that the prevalent has conducted one of the most aggressive, overt messaging campaigns of the war. in order to shave the narrative surrounding this incident, how successful are these, this information campaigns, some of which we saw on the report, and who are they targeting or and to call you right, your rights. this was a massive campaign which started, i think, minutes off top. the explosion of the damn up to them was bust. which to me is also when in direct a sort of testimony is that this was prepared and the russian side was prepared for such an event. to ality, i do not think that the effect was huge. probably the type of them in a year ago would have been different. but now with so many testimonies of crimes committed by the russian forces in ukraine,
5:18 pm
there are fewer people to attempt to believe such narratives. even if they are regressive and method, uh, talking about crimes, there are numerous reports about people coming under fire while being evacuated. in theory, russia could seize this moment to portray itself as a savior and attempt to win hearts and minds in a territory and legally brought under its control. in your opinion, what could be the thinking behind attacking vulnerable people who've already lost it all is essentially that are towards one waged by propaganda inside brush the 1st and foremost of all in a, in the report before, before we, before this interview, the examples of that people that were thinking, russia, this is what's being broadcast to the russian nation, to convince that that russia is doing a great job and the saving people, both in terms of the war itself as it is. the aim is completely different. it's actually too scary ukrainians to make them run for the allies and eventually to
5:19 pm
weaken their mary result of the granting and defend the so in this respect and because of that, shelling officer believes that are trying to fleet this, this off the shelling of those who try to victory them is completely normal. these are carol scare tactics which russians have been employing for quite a long time. the rest and forces, middle employed for quite a long time during this conflict. for most of it, frankly speaking, typically you rush analyst constantly and i got and villainy is always great speaking to you. thank you right now for a bit of basketball news maker. when bonnie alma has made history as the 1st frenchman to become 1st overall pick and the 2023 n b a draft, he's just the 2nd european to be the top selection. there was no debate about who the san antonio spurs would choose. the towering 19 year old has been called the best prospect since labranz. james came out of high school and that was 20 years
5:20 pm
ago. the victor when the 2 meters 20 to or 7 put for victor. when bon yamma is head and shoulders above most on the basketball court with the agility of a player half is size. victor is often described as out of this world, the last player to receive this amount of height prior to playing was in b a superstar le bron j fans in san antonio had been waiting for wendy as he's known to make his entrance. now he's arrived when it comes to that level to really describe it. you feel fresh, but uh, one of the best thing in my life, you know, probably the best night of my life. i've been dreaming about this for so long. it's just, it's a dream come true. it's incredible. the victors already made
5:21 pm
a name for himself off the court in the us recently to have the honor of throwing out the 1st pitch during the new york yankees baseball game. the literally of that 1st that before he gets the hardwood, this new coach is focused on helping him settle in texas because of all the high delivered target on his back. so more than those and access to begin with will be most interested in setting framework in an environment where he's comfortable, where he can be, victor, he's not labranz or tim or coby or anybody else is victor. and that's what we want him to be. the spurs have bank doing when bon yamma success and the city that worships basketball. san antonio believes the height is real. well, let's take a closer look at victor then and bring in jason felicia, who's a former n b, a scout base in europe and joins is now from below. and yet in italy was really
5:22 pm
been good to see it here on the w. you saw me through women. yeah. mostly years ago . was it clear to you that and that he one day become the 1st pick in the n b a draft as well? definitely. i'm sure you saw a young age. what else? i agree that was a challenge. i 1st saw live the 1019 new york under 16 championships with directory in place and he was 15 years old. was fine. yeah, you're all. but he was already head and shoulders on competition despite younger. and uh it was, it was funny office that is obvious fashion way or the way his skill set was very unique. and his progression has been amazing. you know, i've been doing this for a lot of years and you know, it's a player like this on any level,
5:23 pm
this page this versus how i see. like i said, he's legit. something for taller and he has sealed skill set so much, much smaller layer. it's really, you know, the term unicorn which is on the associate is truly appropriate. is that all right you calling me unicorn is being held as a once in a generation tell and by then b and b, he'll be facing the best players in the world. how difficult will it be for him to adjust? well, it will, it will be difficult. i think, you know, if you realize too, so that's already, you know, a huge, you know, how the dash understands this. you know, this was the 1st year that she was the main guy on nice team on the pro level, and she did very well better than i thought i would do this role. so i definitely think he has the maturity to show off the role that he used.
5:24 pm
you guys should be able to pressure the big question is bottom side, you know, he's by her side. he's, you know, 74 is not taller, but he's quite skinny. i'll be honest, not so concerned about this. you know, hairs last drains serve your shoes about always tall young man, you know, they don't, they're boxed on sure. i know is trainers working on this flexibility on your ability in stamina. so obviously, you know, for the best, like i said, i don't think that you'll be able to down, i seem to not lose my per site, but the way just, he, well, his game will not be overpower players. his game will just to be uses, you know, he doesn't need to push you guys to sign. you can shoot over the dfcs. he does
