10:02 am
we are still without power and running low on supplies. it almost a week after the play, survivors are recalling their terrifying experiences escaping from the flames. directly across the ship. it's a fit for you. and then the scope round of life, of where this man is walking, just minutes before the fire burned hook guard, and the lease and some neighbor. it's not running. escape into the ocean. well, i'm for washington. there's rocks got her and legs. but you didn't use cobra, barbara for what she kept her sense of much up to her neck in the goal. what do we got as low as we could? but at that point at 9 i both started to lose consciousness. we began to hallucinate, i would kind of pass out into the water and as my face hit the water, i would come into again and realize where i was and what was going on and how i needed to keep myself safe for any reason. it's not head, finding the right so many others did not escape the rapidly moving flames.
10:03 am
the tragedy has left around a 100 dead and more than a 1000, missing a massive search operation. it's under. we stay for dogs a working to read through hundreds of printer homes and we cuz the intensity of the police and state of destruction have made it difficult to define and identify human to me a week after the fight. only a few of the dead has been identified using the fingerprints. the exact number may not be known for weeks to the use concrete more i spoke to us earlier from now we and she told us more about the relief efforts and what kind of support the survivors have been receiving. yes, most of the survivors are still being placed in shelters and are staying with friends and family. many have also thrown out to the mainland or how i have been
10:04 am
saying that they are going to return to the countries of origin that there are many argentines for doing these and selling the cars and getting out there was worse. yeah, in pressing need for food for walter's bill and also for mental health because i've seen a lot of people traumatized now for those, whereas they also need legal assistance and our perspectives. because right now they are the people who have lost their houses are very vulnerable and are prone to sell their land. they claim some of them that they have been receiving calls from people saying their realtors and they, they try to purchase their lands as they have lost their jobs. i have no prospective the they, they are vulnerable to this. that's something the governor wants to prevent. he said that he will try to prevent that. anyone outside of the state buys the land of the people here, but it's unclear how he's going to manage to do that because there are federal laws that allow for it to happen. so really pretty serious situation. there,
10:05 am
as people start looking for answers about what might, has started this place, we know that hawaii is biggest power company. hawaiian electric is facing criticism for not shutting off the power during high wind warnings, even as power lines started to fall down. have there been any further developments there? not yet. uh, the there are many of different lawsuits uh taking place. and that the company itself has had that it has launched an investigation. and there will be also one other investigation coming from the state and hawaii and lectures has said that they will fully cooperate with it. now people are, uh, they last so its our accusing hawaii and electrics, or lack of montana and that could have prevented this. and also uh they say that it was for see a, bu, that's something like this could happen and they should have cut off the power the company saying, uh this uh, they don't have this program. and this is highly controversial because it power,
10:06 am
as shown in the, in california for example, is needed for people in help, depending on many called devices and also to pump the water for the firefighters. yeah, and while the situation remains so dire, there has been calls from some locals for tourists to stay away from that. we are those calls being heated, as uh yeah, it bottom yes, there have been tens of thousands of tourists who have left the islands already and i could see myself. there is a slow down in the island. now the residence i've been talking to, they're a little resentful about the reason right now in the west coast of molly, completely in the high 9, the hina area. because they feel the resources should go to the people in need right now. and they don't need to raise, go in around the area and see where they're still bodies that have to be recovered . they don't feel it's right for the overall like they have the many constellations
10:07 am
in the island and in other parts like in k and y. leah in the south of the island they need it's a reason because it's the source of income for this island and for for its people. well, thank you so much for your report and verify that as country my in my way thank you . when you take a look now what some other story is making world news headlines at this hour. north korea has officially acknowledged its attention of us soldier, travis king. he was on a civilian tour of a borger village between north and south korea. when he crossed into the north, becoming the 1st american confirmed, attained by tongue and in almost 5 years rescue where they're still searching for victims of a landslide and the republic of georgia. 26 people are known to have been told. the slide happened 2 weeks ago, and our region famed for its forest and mineral water springs is full and has held its largest military parade since the cold war. the nato member state has made
10:08 am
bolstering its armed forces a priority since russia's invasion of ukraine or so has vowed to double the size of his army, and to spend 4 percent of gdp on defense this year. but you, for any and officials that overnight rushing drones strikes had damaged grain silos and warehouses added to new print reports. it is the latest attack against ukrainian port infrastructure following russia's decision to engine agreement that had guaranteed the safe passage of green shipments. despite the end of the deal, ukraine is today attempting to send ships along a so called humanitarian court. or let's take a look at how tension is increasing on the black sea summer sun send and see the beaches of odessa reopened this month for the 1st time since rush us invasion. it may look identical, but this ukrainian black, c, c, c is now at the house of the battle of the military and geopolitical interests. russia has long been the prominent naval power in the black sea with its fleet
10:09 am
stationed in crimea. but the western shows are controlled by nato allies. romania and bulgaria. and parts of the eastern shore belongs to nature popular georgia. in the south nato member techie is the gatekeeper of the black sea, controlling the only access point through the bus press straits. in the early days of the war, russia started mining ukrainian waters and blockading its ports, including odessa. the blockade disrupted, ukraine's great exports, leaving millions of people affected, particularly in african nations. dounia often months of uncertainty techies, president rep, tie up at one and the united nations is broken and the last summer for russia to allow ukraine to exploit it. strain. but in july this year, ahead of the russia, africa summit, vladimir putin pulled out of the deals with most co announcing ships. the 7
10:10 am
ukrainian ports would no longer be safe when they got blown they were. that'll go in the tensions continue to rise as rush. i began the bombing campaign targeting ukraine support infrastructure in odessa that forced ukraine to find alternative routes, sending its exports to smaller ports along the river, down you on its west and boulder. but that to russia took action bombing, the port of rennie scene has failed in just a few 100 meters away in romania and nato country law. ukraine also ramped up its attacks targeting navy vessels in russian ports, and several russian ships in the black sea. and then last week came another class with rushes, navies, firing warning, shouts at powwow flag vessel afterwards failed to stop for inspection. it was bought it in a dramatic rate, but lights were allowed to continue to ukrainian. done, you porch, a rush as president has said he is open to returning to the great deal,
10:11 am
but only in exchange for better conditions for russia's own exports, but by throw ukrainian grain ex both remain stuck in storage facilities and in trucks waiting to be picks up as the black sea stand off as fast reaching boiling point, i spoke earlier to gustavo dressel, a military expert with the european council on foreign relations. and i asked him, who has a stronger presence on the black sea ukraine or russia? what was these russia? they have an established navy, ukraine has earlier coastal defense rules of say, roughly uses and leverage has its ability to control the c a for the out of your trans coastline to try and enforce a blockade on the ukraine. this is a economic color strategy trying to ruin those economic activities that still bring revenues into ukraine production of electricity. and
10:12 am
now a production of every cultural product. so particularly grain and call of say that's, that's basically what they're trying to achieve. now are ukranian government agency earlier this month declared that the waters around russia's blacks, the ports will be a more risk area from august 23rd. until further notice, can you tell us more about what that means? it um yes sir. it is for a saying the expiration um that's basically establish true if you uh, come back unable for against another country and you intend to mind uh, a country or intend to use all the other means of unable for like for example, unrestricted submarine wolf that you declare the water, so you are going to conduct this as it was on. remember the declaration of oil change of german and british. we'll just, you can go little want that's basically the same procedure. russell has done so
10:13 am
with ukrainian coastline uh, spain, all of the direction of explicate, and as accounting move ukraine has done. so for the russian coastline, though, if you need to remember that to be foldable, 40 percent of pressures for lex thoughts, why and why? i know what else to use. uh, i pulled the russian pulled into black sieve of the big 4 legs, fulton terminal. um now was pipeline exports to europe. uh, stalling uh, this chair has probably increased. uh 2nd, most of these time cuz who are heading for the assist um, actually all insured by weston insurance companies illegally because this is on the same spot. they didn't fall. but anyway, because the high profits with buying cheaper us and on and usually to him for one and a half years they went there unless the mouth cause if it's a was on on these ukrainian i'm on pilots of vehicle search. basically walter drums
10:14 am
strikes these pulled facilities, the risk for your ships to be actually damaged, increase and hands on a, the issue of insurance and eagle shipping the 1st and on becomes an issue for these companies again. and ukraine hopes that there will be hesitant of going to a restaurant and scribble russel's oral export. that's basically what's behind it to that was christoph dressel, a military expert with the european council on foreign relations. all the west african original block eco was, is preparing to meet again tomorrow to review its response to the crew. and the share of the last member countries have so far avoided a military response and are instead using sanctions to put pressure on the one to they've close their land borders with new share, we think hundreds of trucks stranded and unable to transport cargo. that includes relief, materials and agencies want a resolution to the impasse so that supplies can be restored for people in desperate need let's get more on the story now from indeed of
10:15 am
use tony a lot of poll joining me here in the studio high told me how have sanctions affected, these are so far as i mentioned, the, the board has had been closed and is there is a landlocked country, so it's got coastal west african states that the south is called the sahara desert to the north. it relies very heavy on inputs and those have been cut off at the moment. and so it's, it's struggling to get supplies in. nigeria for example, also provides electricity. the bulk of that nature, as electricity comes from the change, you don't them on the river nyja. that's been cut off so much of an issue has been in the doc. but there's been a lot of this, you know, of course, have mentioned in the past the that the, the us, the, you, the world bank also spending development aid as a loved with is, is hitting news. you have very hard at the moment. so with the sanctions appearing to actually have quite a significant impact on the share, as you say, um have we heard a response from the military rulers there? the regime that has essentially painted this as
10:16 am
a kind of also against the world kind of thing where that p the appealing to the people of new jazz, saying that, you know, what they're doing is the will of the people for the sake of the nation. and that this oldest, tough action is the outside world trying to impose themselves on these. yeah, so they all getting some support. it's difficult to see how wide spread the support is, but there is some support for them at the moment. but they digging the heels in um to try and hold on. yeah. and i just wanna ask how effective you think the sanctions could be because we know i could was has always imposed sanctions following the luxury cruise in the region. um, so far those have failed to restore democracy. do you think the case of new share could be any different causes? worried about a trend we've seen, denny was saying, molly was in book enough iso and now we're seeing this year and they don't want that to be yet another one. so i think why they've acted so sternly at the moment is because a lot of these countries have what hard to build a democracies to where they are. even though these democracies are deeply flawed,
10:17 am
but least to get to the point where they are. there's investment at risk, there's credit rate ratings at risk and, and so much a risk in terms of the stability of this region. of course, we cons, talk about this without mentioning the international partners that us, france, germany will have vested interest as well. they've got the military bases in there so that they also concern. so this is, this is a wider issue that has got a lot of countries really worried. yeah. and what about this meeting of echo was tomorrow that were expecting to take place and gone out? are there going to be options on the table there in terms of a possible military intervention? well, what we have the is the, what's called the africa stand by force. they ask us, done by forces the force that's been in theory already established. and it's designed to address crises on the continent. and so this is just part of that effort. they're going to meet and see who's available, who can contribute troops to this force. i expect that the force in itself will not take any military action as we, as we think of body, they'll be a lot of post during a lot of military postering just to let the new jerry and resume that know that
10:18 am
people are watching that the outside world is watching and that i guess they'll use to buy time so that they can at least have a peaceful way out of this. okay, and we will be following that, of course as well. thank you so much for joining us in the studio. that's dw to me a lot of folks. thank you to well, germany's development minister, espanol schultz is calling for a diplomatic solution to the crisis in new share. she says the crew is not only holding back these areas on development, but also the stabilizing the entire so whole region. schultz that has visited mauritania to meet some of those affected by conflict. so when she could no longer stand the violence of the war, when she was no longer allowed to cultivate her fields, she sat down and fled from molly to more retaining. here in the capital, she was registered by the u. n. h. c r. the united nations refugee agency, young mother for aust as not to protest and i was in white and i am
10:19 am

10:20 am
the region for the we are doing is working in a partnership and trying to stabilize the streets. and in many cases, it works the screen, but not always the screen to start the process and seeing a conflagration. that's the challenge for the past few weeks. spaniel schultz and has been president of the most important group of international factors of the region. this i feel the lines we have to keep making efforts to promote democracy. among other things. we can do that as donors, by showing that the democratic states of democratic structures are really hoping the country's here in the zion. it's one of lucas. you either have to visit to a fish market. the mortality is capital together with the minister of fisheries that goes to fishing grounds here or among the richards from the world. germany provides complete support, code storage systems and better genie conditions to protect the fish from spoiling quickly to a place
10:21 am

what will happen tonight if they do make the final. but there's also been some very of some other very interesting developments here on the ground. so an australian newspaper ended up flying a helicopter over one of england's private training sessions on the central coast, trying to get any sort of advantage tactical information on them. of course, they were called out on it saying that it did both against the spirit of sports. but most australian sense that i've been speaking to. they say that we don't need any sort of spine tactics. we are confident in our teams ability to beat england. tonight's very cheeky of them now. you've witnessed the matilda completely went over the public. do you think that support matters? wants to whistle blows. it matters in england can expect a very hostile environment. over 80000 fans are expected to pin up the stadium right behind me. and most of them will be matilda pens intact. see the parents have
