this week the your, what do you need on the news coming to live from berlin? thousands remain missing in libya, days after massive flooding. a libyan government minister says he fears the death tune made double with more than 5000 bodies already recovered. much of the city of dana is destroyed after trend for rain caused to dams to burst also clean. and the sho, north korea's comes on and pledges all supports and mosque out. during talks with the russian president vladimir putin in russia's parties. and russian activists

take their flight to state saying moscow is not doing enough to combat climate change to w, talk to members of the environmental and g, o labeled as for an agent by the kremlin last year after canyon's vote. and president williams were to into office opinion, is divided on whether he is delivered on his promises with many thing everyday. life is only getting harder the i'm quite richardson, thank you for joining us. in libya, the death toll from catastrophic flooding has risen to over 5000 people. and officials say that number is expected to climb even further as bodies that were swept out to sea wash back ashore. storm daniel hit libya after barreling across the mediterranean. it caused floods which swept away entire neighborhoods in eastern coastal areas. the destruction is worst and dare know where to dams

collapsed, wiping out a quarter of the city. thousands of people are still missing and among the survivors, tens of thousands are now homeless. it's your opinion and says it's sending a to live. yeah, but relief efforts are being complicated by the fact that libya's internationally recognized government and tripoli does not control the devastated eastern regions as the casualties in there. now, mount locals are overwhelmed with the task of identifying and bearing the dead on the funds are mine. we are mass burying bodies yesterday at the neighboring hospital on the she had area and it was about a 1010 people, including women, children, i'm in and elderly, all of the see it there now was devastated when to downs collapse during the storm . it's an unprecedented disaster and help has been slow to arrive back in uh,

we call on all the young libby, and anyone who has a degree or any medical affiliation to please come and help us despite warnings that the storm was coming. presidents were not evacuated. so that there is no, no generally heard that the dam had burst and water had flooded the area which had people were asleep. and no one was ready in saying it's all crumbling infrastructure and political divisions which rival factions controlling different parts of the country have made libya particularly vulnerable and official from the eastern administration who visited the city said as much as 25 percent of their in a had disappeared. meanwhile, libya's internationally recognized government based in trip. we don't play the need for international aid, even though doesn't control the affected region. we had to postpone all demands for assistance in wisconsin with the exception of crucial cases. we sort of when we,

when we said we don't need food, water medicine or even manpower. and that's what we need to specialist. we need help for treating bodies from the sea into besides, we spoke to some countries who will help us with the equipment search under the rubble of the month. several countries, including germany, have offered aid, but then to divided country. there still many obstacles in the way of getting help to those a need for her there in a report the libyan prime minister abdulla i'm going to be was saying that he'd postpone accepting international assistance. i spoke to lithia analyst on us out of my tea and asked him what he made of that. so it does struck me in many ways because it's, it's endemic of the systematic failures of governance that we've seen for a decade to rival governments that are perfectly happy to rule. over the rubble was

that says it was land, they're nice it and i think it goes down to the core of what, what we've seen, the image is coming up that now people today waking up, you know, tired faces model all over the place is 3 days without food, water is on the station without the supply lines because of the supply lines that will keep. that's the, the 40000 that we know now displaced from the city, almost all of the population that will keep them getting. they need everything. of course, they need international search and rescue teams. they need technical experts that are going to help them try to recover and identify some of those that are missing by 40000 people need every bit of help that they can get. and so was the officials that we know, particularly those that were responsible for the collapse of but they're going to be national. i mean, lots of those officials may have failed out. now, if there may be courageous citizens that are in your program that haven't because they're the ones that driving the ambulances, the other ones that making the bread, that the ones that are trying to tie themself out, looking under the rubble that they need,

all the help they can get and so when it comes to what the, what the, what the level governments can do that presided over this crisis right decade. it's the man made negligence. it's a man made incompetence, inability to war. and there were in citizens when they had the time, the hours and days before the storm is the libya they had the time to be able to go and warn, evacuate, try and identify a way in which to give the lives of this is it that not maybe not the city structures but lives a 2nd shots, and they have and that criminal negligence means that the white people to be the custodians of today's coordination efforts. that should be the red crescent, the expedited libya is operating with this courageous stuff. the active as the volunteer is the bright people that stood in the city. they need all the help they can get. yeah. and frankly, the local authorities, the why, the ministration in the west, they can step aside. they've done enough. well, let me jump in there. um, as you say, it's the ordinary citizens being left to pick up the pieces. do you think that there are they're going to be political consequences for how this response has been unfolding? i certainly think that needs to be a place most,

i'm figuratively and literally off of events. and i think, you know, we've seen this in the region before we saw the pool last and basement. i completely manmade tragedy that didn't need to happen. this is the very same case, criminal negligence that goes back to the good that the resume hasn't maintained that, that, that damage of the 1980s, the l. n. a that has also been involved that will be much money that has been involved in getting the public infrastructure in east, and they've got destroying the roads destroying buildings using it for scrap metal . then they would sell for pennies on the dollar unexplored kentucky for billions of dollars a year. that is the quality of the fiber of those individuals that today saying i'm here to help you and keep you safe. when they spent the last 1010 years stealing from a lot of the public money, the public infrastructure and waging war against the runs, as well as the corner in the fiber of libya and elected. but it's a going to need. and if we have the elections are only several weeks ago, elections were blocked and then what could have been like to cancel? they've done the experts i've done so. but i knew that there is to be an inquiry,

the public investigation about what happened and then then the events that led to this. but that needs to be a drastic change. libby's of once it elections for 10 years that had been blocked by you and process. the is which is not designed to allow for elections is designed to the, to create an appointed governments that will block collections. how do we know that? because we did have states of them in the last decade, each of them i promised collections and they never delivered. so there's criminal culpability. on the local level, there was international complexity of the national level. and libyans are the ones, the blameless victims of this. they're picking up the pieces and they have to build it tomorrow, and they need to do that without the kind of criminal accomplices that have been the custodians of the last 10 years. well, thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us on the date of the news that is with the analyst and commodity. we really appreciate your time so we can turn now to some other world news headlines. rescue efforts also continue in morocco. 5 days after an earthquake killed nearly 3000 people,

international crews have sent emergency responders into the mountains where bodies remain buried under dusk, and russell locals are organizing a campaigns to help those affected. as you chief or so, the funder lion has underscore. her commitment to the ambitious climate plan known as the greenville companies she pledged to strike a fair balance between the needs of the environment and business of underlying was speaking. her final state of your opinion, address for, for her term ends. next year, ukraine has staged with thought to be its biggest attack on the home of rushes, black sea sweets. he says it struck a submarine, a landing vessel and port infrastructure in the city of a store full in crimea, which russia annexed in 2014 russia as a premium missiles hit 2 ships. 24 people were reported wounded. north korea's leader control and has pledged his full support for russia at talked with president vladimir putin who says can, will be given

a tour of russia's pacific suite based on what of all stock as part of a tour of defense facilities and rushes far east north korean leader has helped us on that as the start of a new era in bilateral relations. sonya holland raising his last to friendship for sure, but i would like to make it to is. this is a future strengthening of cooperation and friendship between our countries, between the russian federation and the democratic people's republic of korea. the meeting between north korean leader kim jong on and russian president vladimir putin, wasn't able to meet tool appreciation to go into court. together with comrade fulton, we've just had an elaborate discussion about the middle tree and political situation on the korean peninsula and europe and have come to the conclusion that we need to further intensify a strategic and tactical cooperation to ensure safety guarantee, a long lasting peace. both in the region and the whole world. the to lead is each

becoming increasingly isolated on the global stage. but looking to show that they have each of those back to kim jones on the underlines is ongoing support. so russia against what he called the thrust of a german, this forces against its silver into the united states as well on foot. north korea could be preparing to supply russia with military equipment to boost its capabilities in ukraine. the pen took a tour of rushes, the stuff me caused me to try the country's most important role could launch center on the less believe that north korea wants the russian advice on how to improve its own real kits and reconnaissance satellites for different from russian officials. down play the fact that the summit could be a cause for concern for other countries. but that will do little to come west and

fee is about this flourishing friendship. and in russia, climate activists say they're assuming the government over it's carbon emissions. one of those activists told you that these russian service that they had delivered their case to the europe in court of human rights after it was rejected by russia supreme court. the crumbling has in the past level, the number of environmental n she owes as foreign agents or undesirable organizations. forcing them to close down their rush or branches. but there are activist who are still continuing to fight environmental activist ego just lucian thinks. and what are simple for me, where is the war in venza some 600 kilometers from moscow. he's wife sonya carefully notes, both it's color and it's smile. other activists carry out sport test on the samples . it shows fixes this level of chlorine iron and organic matter. the basis of waste

water from a nearby paper factory. just a few kilometers from the historical center of venza. not far away easily beach and locals. fish here. you may have to deal with them, but to just do way do this every year, because once they have a bar to monitor the composition of the war so much whether it is suitable for drinking or not. so the people who drink kids, will they even it's a fish from it when they understand that the danger is a little the whole situation that is resulting from this factory were excluded. that wouldn't, we may need eco activists have had to leave russia since the beginning of the war. several and jules, have been labeled for an agents or undesirable organizations and forced to close, including the w, w. s. m, green piece. these activists are own teams, but they are well aware of the risks they are running. postpone,

which of your way of doing is homeless and leo or tomorrow that could be labeled extremism or terrorism, or excuse me, terry. despite that last year and they can each of their own independence use environmental organization echo stopped. it's found, or alex a 5th can used to be part of the drug of a mental environmental movement, but good kicked out for testing waters next to these paper factory run by a local politician. but that did not stop him. he continues to me a total local rivers and dumps us the cost as well to an added insurance plan. the owners of this done a high ranking officials in the pens, the regional that was thing kind of on that, that they chose, that cost cutting on waste separation and proper waste disposal and about the making huge profits on this landfill by minimizing that costs. that seems to be so the and their actions have already had an effect. last year,

12 unauthorized dump sites were cleared in the pens, their region, and the paper factory was find around $5000.00 and for students. so what's your treatment facilities? yes. oh gosh them if every city and you know, every region had just one or 2 effective local environmental organizations solving local problems, outcomes train would be a different place. we just, there, guy. they believe the future of their region lies in their hands, and protecting nature is worth fighting for despite the risks. a atari, as williams for works for di, they'll be use russian service and produce that report. you're going to be now in the studio. hi, natalia, one of the activists in your report, i thought was really interesting said, what we are doing is harmless and illegal, but tomorrow it could be labeled extremism or terrorism is,

is he right to be concerned there? unfortunately, he is because right now, any type of activism. well, mostly political activism, or unto or activism is dangerous in russia. but also ecological activists are facing craig down only in the recent years. they've been 4 times more arrest ofa ecological exhibition in the past years. and then environmental group of from crisis group said that in, in 2020 it's we 70 people summit to x to this has been and have seen some kind of pressure, other charges for pressed against me, arrested, or even physically attacked. well, now you also mentioned that russia has labeled groups like the www. f and green pieces for an agents or undesirable organizations. what kind of reasons or evidence is the crumbling, giving for closing down their rush on their rush operations? well, official official reason to labor when peace and desirable was that it interfered in the internal affairs of the state or was engaged in until russian propaganda whether to for w w f. they said it's post that you just read through their economics. fewer i mean,

you have to know that before this organization has been extinguished for 30 years and even closely cooperating with russian authorities, there were some projects together they received but, and then for funds, there were some, you know, procedure project like protection of, you know, lepers and the call cause of some stuff, and suddenly they've become, you know, spies and a threat to the government. so this came out of left field for them in some sense. i'm wondering how important it is for the kremlin to protect the environment doesn't recognize the urgency of curtailing climate change, considering extreme weather events that we're seeing that are affecting the entire world. 12 is events are also affecting russia, and we've seen a lot of in a wildfire is in floods and the permafrost smelting. so russia is no exception when it comes to climate change. and on paper it dies because russian also promises to come down the carbon emissions by 2030. but in reality, when it's promised you that on the same time in advance of basically many

environmental organizations from the ground and prevents them to actively, actively doing their job. and then also because rushes to be producer of, you know, oil and gas and economic and political speaking is more, as it's better to ignore the climate change for that matter than to pay closer attention to it right now. and what about this case that's filed against the kremlin, at the european court for human rights to be that that's gonna actually result in any change in russia? well, russia is not a part of your work in the course of human life anymore. and it was thrown in last september by this, after this actually managed to try the proceedings even before that. so that might be one of the last cases against russia that actually will have this binding effect . but whether russia will actually do something about it is that it's another, some other issues. but those active as to think of their actions matter because a government in russia kind of venture, we change crime. it's an emergency in climate change. we'll stay there. well, thank you so much for bringing us up to speed there. that is natalia samantha from

the w as russian service. we appreciate you taking the time to think of what's been a year now since kenny has present william rudo took office. he won the countries elections with promises of job creation, prioritizing the needs of low income earners, and lowering the cost of living. but since he came to power rises in food and fuel prices have meant that the cost of living has risen sharply. dw felix marie, good talk to some kenyans who fuel their expectations have not been met. a m t lo easy, most salesman's and the we have to make a living in a robot east valencia. when a good date she sells 5 by little by dish. right, so to she makes 8 assuming part about half a year old prophy on one. yeah. and the we have but i do believe the mind communicating and so forth. it for william, brutal, i think i'm paying a so called go to my people know make more down in that improving the lives of low income and i was hoping things are going to be bid on. the high cost of

living is going to be reduced. yeah, but things i getting was the that makes me to wake up every day and think of something that i can do. the price is a basic commodity. that'd be nice. 50 right. president william brutal has said on several occasions that the problems kenyans are facing. will have to be sold so much it can, but can also still having to pay more for basic things like public transport, which has gone up by about $0.45. although a premium is divided on the streets of negro b as to whether he has delivered a new fuss, the old office president for them. i believe. yes, president bhutto has to live up to me. uh, we have been able to work more hours because he has empowered us and i'm sure that in the next 4 years and the country will have come much further. but we wouldn't have accomplished what she set out to do like a nomic li socially. and the other thing she promised to us yearly for like zombie

people who promised us people will get jobs. but on the contrary, when people are losing their jobs, the economy is not doing well. it's no secret to weed people on the margins of hurting my husband. but as well to support that and fellow party members in the neural thinks that president photo has accomplished. what you set out to doing is competing despite the how do you cannot make time for something we are being able. and number one is i say to increase production, you know, i agree, 5 to 6 to doing conventions. it's a foot level that we have been able to, to, to come up with a new pair with the system. we have been able to actually come up with a new education system as you know, called to c, b c, which has been costly but to have been able to fund it. lastly, kenya was able to much from a village to viet, got without the society begging in the one for entity, because kenya can look in once and get the resources to support these people. this accomplishments abroad literally changed to asian,

was like last july to apply to melissa noise process to put the governments to life with prices and models to avoid that to the cost of living is not low and she may not be able to provide for her babies i see, but sometimes if you look great and you have nothing to offer, you have nothing to put on the table like she's getting was to have to wake up each and every day. stick to the house or, and just that you of bills, things and things i getting was we've higher taxes in the cost of food in basic commodities. pedro getting ways you more and many of occasions have yet to see presidential to make good on his campaign. promises it may have been a challenging past the airport. okay. but it has been even more challenging for those leaving the modules. let's move to kind of capital nairobi to speak with our correspondent felix miranda. felt that report. i feel like thank you for your reporting there. a william rudo inherited an economy burdened by that inflation and

a weakening currency. how much was he able to change in his 1st year as president? so far, president william brutal has money is to reduce x dollars bordering uh, just 2 days ago when he was speaking to kenneth, he said that uh, the problem that can now had when he took office was the fact that that's about 60 percent of the taxes that's why being collected on a daily basis by going to i'd definitely tell you what do payment and that's made. uh they called on the times very difficult. so he said she has monday, as to celebrates that debts, do issue and invites and all of the country is in a stable condition. something else that he has done, he has moved from uh, subsidizing consumption that is made sly, a few and other things to know, subsidizing production. he has been distributing for to lasers to farm on. and that you save him greek and this particular season he expects the country will produce about $4.00 to $4000000.00 bonds, which will bring the cost of food down. and as

a result, you'll have the full effect on the costs of living. yeah, i mean, we saw on your report a woman who was worried about putting food on the table. how is this affecting his support? does he still have much support among the population? a so i research results that was released just yesterday by a company known as info truck here, and can now run to a long since about 4 months at 55 percent, just above average. and majorities of kenya's, who responded to that particular research, said that, apart from the cost of living, they feel like other things are going in the right direction. but the majority of ken knows who still feels like things that are going right out of the ones that are saying if one of the the cost of living would be improve, defend, probably he's ranking would go higher. something else that kennels have been complaining about is at the they, they meet the daily needs that they have,

that they feel the government has neglected, their presence needs for something that will happen in the future. and president william brutal has been category qual, fee that problems can those have will be sold systematically. but some of the kenyans who uh, he has lots supports from one the solutions now in north, in future. let's talk about rooters, opponent the opposition leader, re load and is the economic situation in kenya. i'm playing into his hands very much so because most of the candles while protesting, even in july, just as he was sending the report, they were protesting just because of the high cost of living of costs. and these now talks that are going on between the leaders of a position and leaders in government and a, some of the things that are being talked about. i lost the, as general a little extra on the cost of living and other issues that i've been be definitely in the country. but the cost of living actually played very well into a den guy's hand. and he used that to ensure that the country did not have rest

when it came to process. and people coming go to the streets, to voice that this content with the government. and just quickly, before we go, how is rto been seen outside of? can you or outside of cannot william roots? are you seeing as up enough frequently as he has been very well called asking for debts that are coming to developing nations and especially africa, to be fair. he has a raised concern about i m f and the world bank giving laws to develop nations at something less than 2 percent, while kenya added developing nations. i've been given loans that interest of 8 percent. so aside from pushing for an african uh for yeah, financial infrastructure. he's also been pushing for about bilateral relations. he has had bilateral talks, we've added some on southland. yes. how detox we've uh the us president. and that has been really, i'm brutal at in, in the last one. yeah. well,

thank you so much for your port and that's our felix miranda. and i wrote b, such as, you know, the news of next digital can use asia can, a partnership between manila and camera determination in the south china sea and how drunk food is harming indonesian children's health. my colleague energy has that and more for you after a short break. i'm clear, richardson in for land, for municipal, thanks for watching the, the,
