we're used to the hate so yeah, normal environmental fighting it, but i'm just suffering hospitals that preparing more beds. an additional doctors and nurses around call for emergencies, countries across them. you have a warning of a significant risk to life as the continent. braces to what could be. it's helped each day ever. let's bring in journalist daphne toll us for more from asp. net athens. traffic via problems we've seen, there has been temporarily closed. what else are authorities doing to keep people safe? i yes. hello for my friends. indeed, the trouble is, one of the country's major's towards the cloud attractions has shortened its opening hours for a 2nd day to day because of the extreme heat parts. and now since we're also remain close to date, because there's the risk of a forest fires and people are urged to stay inside, keep hydrated where light closed. whereas if they need to go out and reduce moving

movement outside, so local authorities through the increases to resist civil protection ministry have been issuing these warnings and urgent people, especially elderly people with or be will the existing health problems to stay indoors and keep hybrid hydrated there's also some designated areas across the capital of greece with the air conditioned rooms with those that don't have access to their condition. can go to a local place near their neighborhood and sit there for as many hours as they need until the temperatures drop. and they can return home later at night. so it's a very serious situation, of course, not only for the people who live there um, also for visitors. this is peek torres season in europe and many people are flocking to greece. are you seeing some very miserable travelers there? it will. exactly. but you know, for grease spaces, grease has been

a grappling with the teeth waste every summer, especially in july and august. but this year we've had a mix. i mean, it's like a huge amount of people visiting so same as last year, but we are seeing an increase here to now because of people visiting. despite the sorting temperatures, people will still go to be an attraction site to major was in the accomplice. as mentioned parker areas. so i've seen people even working with has with, with the sunglasses. wizard, bottles of water sitting uh, even having dinner outside. there's some watering based firms that some restroom businesses have put in the plaque area just to cool the temperatures down. so they will still bray. they are still brave enough to go outside and visit the sides because i assume this within their schedule while visits increase. and i spoke to a couple of tour guides that basically, you know,

offer and do some tour visits in the appropriate they are against this piece of, uh, closing the acropolis. they think that this is the time that everyone works and we people are responsible for their own well being. yeah, huge economic impacts there as well. well, thank you so much for bringing us up to speed. that's a journalist. doesn't tell us the joining us from athens. thank you. well, bella russo says fighters from the mercenary group wagner have arrived in the country under training local forces. developers defense industry has released this video reporting to show wagner fighters working as weapons instructors out of military camp near the capital mintz. there's been much speculation about the location of a wagner troops and their future since they are short lived mutiny last month. foreigners later you have any promotion reported. we agreed to move his forces to belarus as part of a deal to enter the revolt. his whereabouts remain unclear. a can i please to welcome marina moran back on the show. she is

a military analyst at kings college london, marina. i like to ask 1st, whether you're convinced by the video that's reporting to show wagner fighters training local forces in belarus. they clear? well, we have to think of the source of the video and right now what we know is that this video has been released by the bellows ministry of defense. therefore, we might want to take it with a grain of sold because it hasn't been confirmed yet. what is known as that satellite imagery shows some camps which have been allegedly set up for wagner trips in the bell a ruse. that being said, it would be no reason for a precaution to send his troops anywhere else, given the outcome of so you conversation was put in the precaution recent. we had, therefore, it would be logical to wagner or to go to bell or lose. however, i would wait for confirmation from weston sources 1st before judging whether we can

believe the actual location of his troops. so at this point, what, what can we surmise about the future of wagner? it is difficult because a 1st after the mutiny put in, tried to seize all the assets at the bottom grow pad because the device has been running a lot of operations also in africa and syria and not just in ukraine. sorry, it is quite a big empire. it's not just a small private military company. and from the russian perspective, um, according to the war box in there as a group, it, as a legal entity doesn't exist, there has been a proposal to integrate into boxes of troops and they would be sent back to ukraine, possibly. um, under the command of the ministry of defense allegedly is that proposal has been turned down. so right now it is not clear, but one of the possible options as

a precaution might to might try to revive his screen in bel ruth and my tried to re register it there and brought it from there. okay, let's turn to the war efforts and ukraine on presidents lensky warning ukrainians that russia is throwing all of its resources into stopping keeps counter offensive . what's your assessments on how that counter offensive is going right now? the counter offensive has been going very slowly because of the, a russian national defense system. on the one hand, on the other hand, we have to understand that in ukraine is still lacking her resources, military resources, despite all the deliveries that it has received so far from western allies. and now this is coupled with divided sentiments when it comes to european countries, supporting ukraine's effort against russia. so we have to look at different factors . the counter offensive has been slow,

it has the yield of the results that many have expected, but it is still too early to tell. and now was a delivery off so called cluster munitions of french scalp cruise missiles and storm shadows. there might be a possibility for the korean forces to break through the defenses. however, we have to wait and see what happens. well, thank you so much for joining us with that analysis. that is right number on many thanks. thank you. let's turn now to some other world news headlines at this hour. the final ships carrying ukrainian green are leaving the black sea. the deal to protect green shipments expires on monday. russian president vladimir putin has threatened not to renew the agreement. if some western banking site sanctions are not listed, the year long deal has helped me and tain exports and ease of global food shortage . south korea's president. and so if you will have said soul will increase a to ukraine after he met with his ukranian counterpart for letting me use the

landscape. and chief, the surprise visit was use 1st since the russian invasion soul has joined international sanctions against moscow and given ukraine humanitarian and financial aid, but not supplied military support. a wildfire has broken out on the palm of one of spain's canary islands authorities. a blaze has forced the evacuation of at least 500 people from their homes. officials say the fire has already destroyed 11 homes and burnt through 140 heck dares of land? well, indeed, knighted stage production on major film and televisions that has a ground to a halt. and it's the biggest strike to hit the entertainment industry in decades. actors have joined screenwriters on picket lines in front of hollywood studios, demanding better pay, and protection from artificial intelligence, the shutting down, a multi $1000000000.00 industry. hollywood stars have now joined screenwriters,

triggering the 1st industry wide walk out in 63 years. the what is the siding in this strike and this is going to impact everybody. and if we don't take control of this situation from these reading, beg, lavinia, we're going to be in spread, moving our livelihood outside. major studios and natalie and new york actors are demanding better compensation when it comes to world. he's from streaming platforms . the union, which represents some 160000 actors and entertainers says the takeover streaming platforms has flashed their earnings or

the another sticking point in negotiations has been the use of a i. striking actors say they're fighting any move to allow studios to own the digital scans, a background performers for an unlimited period of time. one of the things i spoke about was that they were going to pay a background actor for one day work and then use their likeness in perpetuity like forever without paying them. and i'm like, that is not okay. the writers strike had already disrupted most tv production. now with actors joining, it could also help work on big budget movies. so no actors, no writers. what is hollywood going to do? we put that question to entertainment journalist, catering matthews. i actually spoke to a source of mine this morning and i thought, you know, i wonder if the studios and the networks got the message from fran drescher,

yesterday, when she was up there saying, you know, they're being greedy. this is what we're asking for. she was speaking on behalf of the sat, sat after the actors union and you know, my, my source told me that actually was do some of the people that they spoken with her said that they were willing to let the stripe go on. and they're not any closer to even attempting to ask for a meeting with the writers guild, nor the screen actor's guild at all. um, so it's actually quite scary. you think that, you know, so many of these people, their livelihood depend on being paid in to see if this might go on for like, you know, 3 or 6 or even more months is quite frightening for, for many people here in holly, in this case, and matthew, speaking to us earlier, and finally, a man in florida has gone ahead to head with an almost 6 metre long snake and he's lived to tell the tale. the burmese hyphen is the largest ever captured in the area

wing and nearly $57.00 kilos. florida has declared the species invasive and is paying people to catch and kill them. the prices don't have any natural predators, i guess, except for sneak bounty hunters. that's all for me for now of next and talk a film. you can also find more news and analysis online at t dot com or for all of us on social media. that's out of the news. i'm claire richardson for me in the team. thank you for watching the interest the global economy, our portfolio g w business be here's a closer look out the project.
