the, the, this is dw news life from the lin, libya struggles with the altima of catastrophic floods. it's now for more than 11000 people, died off to, to wrench for rain bus 2 demons near the city. if they're not off to the city nami, like so many parties remain in the ruins, raising says that the disease reading also coming up on the program, how ukraine is fighting for the technical edge of russia on the box, and sailed reports and visits from line in the truck, the

money keeps mccain and thanks so much for being with us. libby is read present. it says more than $11000.00 people have died in floods in the city of diana, but that death toll has yet to be verified. and libby and officials say it is likely to rise large parts of the coastal since he was swept away off to to rental rain, caused to dams to bust. now there were concerns about the spread of disease with many bodies still lying among the ruins. people search for bodies along the beach and the hard hit city of dirt or not. after torrential rains burst downs on sunday, unleashing a torrent of water down a river bed that by 6, the port city in eastern libya, washing away multi story buildings and sleeping families. inside nicholas miller. so we heard a large bang is, but anyone who is awake and uh for sure,

must have heard of the deadline. was it was unbelievable. you. everybody could hear it. when we went outside, there was no more in the city. it had been raised to the ground and was gonna gladly, you know, i'm on. so it was has just my black jewel, hundreds of bodies covered in bags and blankets, line during those mud cake streets, awaiting mass burials as traumatized in grieving residents. search for missing loved ones. the city had no evacuation plans many say they didn't know they were in danger until they heard the explosive sound of the dam rupturing. leticia and then we're still pulling bodies from houses and from under the rubble got up to this moment and i'm not savvy and we want to stop digging to show them and talk to the years of civil war, intense political and territorial divisions,

and poorly maintained infrastructure. less the country vulnerable to storm. daniel, according to the world and media were logical organization. yes. so so that's, that's the conclusion that the state would have been a normally operating maybe unless it got service i think would have the suit the morning send up and, and also the emergency maintenance mentors with this would have been able to carry out the by creation of the, of the people in there because have a lot of the avoid the most of the human human capital. so of course we cannot to fully avoid the pick on know mccloskies but the but we have also many, much those post most ease by having proper services in place. libby and authorities are vowing to look into whether it human error or played a part in the catastrophe. volunteers and 8 groups. both local and international are on the ground supporting victims. european countries including france, germany, and finland are providing medical teams as well as generators,

diverse and search and rescue helicopters. i of the while there is a security expert with a special focus on libya with you and saying that does off the warning systems could have saved many lives by off to why that was such a catastrophic failure in the bi. as i think 1st and foremost on, they're not like many cities, olivia lack investment in infrastructure. and this is a problem that has been going on for decades as far as emergency notification is concerned right now in europe. and especially since dakota virus government and invested in software of the given emergency alerts. those phones directly here in greece river come in to get an alert on your mobile phone from the government, impending natural disaster. of course it is kind of a scratch the surface of, uh, uh, of your, uh,

your theme country response. pick me up to remember that in with. yeah. such systems are not in place. now. there was worries, warnings by public authorities. but without such a system, such as a defeat assistant to reach people on mass on their mobile phones, i think a lot of people did not receive these 4 legs. so of course, there is a failure on the whole, a government failure towards the people. now, as far as into structures concerned, the reason why the spot storm daniel was especially disposed then of course, because a to dance broke up, which should have been a flight for it into basically it's an army, the voice of the city. i didn't, it's problems are detox decades and it is characteristics i think of the capitals inflect in general that these 2 regions. and this is a problem that dates back to the machine. okay. we know that libya has to rival political also receives all day now cool. pricing to provide dissolve to release

or in the past 24 hours or 23 flights have been uh, going to a different international donors. and this, of course, international flights are done to request by the government, the government. also, there has been shown there has been cooperation, of course, not as kindly as wished a part of it is, of course, a lot of preparation and really a lot of expertise on with the a to see what such an unprecedented flood. so there is a cooperation, it should, it should happen much swifter, much more kindly. but it's good. it's getting very okay. live here, of course is an oil rich country. $11.00 does what, one of that money is, go on. why is that not being used now? to deal with this situation, that is probably the most important question in dealing with this disaster. this

disaster is both a natural disaster and the mind made. disaster storm. daniel, it's a natural disaster. it's that. or if it costs questions that we saw afterwards is a man made disaster, the dams weren't maintained properly. it was a catastrophe waiting to happen. and this, of course corruption, corruption is a human security, but it is, it is responsible for all these not just for the dams and infrastructure, but i think is responsible for the sub standard living the living space throughout the entire day. the lives of libby is one of those club countries in the world. there is no formal audits, the meaningful audits of government spending, the government public funds go to the governments are not public collected. what happens when a government is not comfortable to the people, but you get a self serve, it's not public servants. and this is a problem, but what do you has gone through for a decade spigot? definitely. she was a tardy and it was characterized by christ. and uh, this, uh,

this tradition continues today. uh, cuz construction control. uh, uh, corruption is huge. uh me see here is uh kickbacks between businesses. uh, lots of a meeting standards of building all of that the urban planning. so literally, so corruption here plays a huge role, maybe x, but i above what i'd like you like to thank you so much for joining us here on dw today. thanks for your analysis. okay, let's take a look now, some of the other stories making news around the world and the head of thailand's election, winning move forward policy has resigned. ok, so let me to run right. let. the reform is policy to 1st place in may's elections, riding a wave of anger at the military and royalist establishment. he was blocked from forming a government by conservative will make his enlighten suspended as an m p. to make

all smoke for a later conjunction has visited a ad croft factory in russia's far east as he continues this trip to the country. russian officials gave him a tour of the size with some of the rushes. most advanced flights of jet so produced him met with president person earlier this week. thousands of course i was going on strike in the us of the countries 3 biggest vehicle manufacturers. for general moses and salons that us have refused to increase, pay to level the mom that by the united or say workers union up despite the comic has profits many doubling over the past decade. and us officials say that ukraine's president for autumn is zalinski, is expected to visit washington dc. next week, the trick comes as congress considered as president biden's request for an additional $24000000000.00 in military and humanitarian aid for tuesday. kolinski last visited the us in december 2022. we spend

a lot of alarm. now drones are increasingly chasing the conflicts and ukraine, the capable of doing significant damage as well as being used for surveillance operations. and although they're at risk of being shut down, they are a relatively cheap tools that's quickly become crucial on the bustle sailed. ukrainian forces have develop their own sophisticated techniques for using them, but the russians all learning to in particular, how to defend against them. the double use my test spelling i visited to ukrainian drive and crews. we've disguised some of the landscape to hide. the location is getting ready to fly. this is a lake ukrainian 1st store recognizance drone, but has proven crucial in this world with a range of 50 kilometers. it can fly far behind the enemy line when it comes to things. so you literally, there are advantages that the enemies air defense almost never sees it. and i think it's small and has just

a minimum of metal with all the liquor as part of what the ukrainians call that drone on the door side. let's communicate directly with the c'mon center and artillery or from fi is based on their review time images. and this makes the drawing cruise a target both of those, the smallest of the, of the most level we've been detected before under artillery fire that those may try to find those. and of course they will try to annihilate us. russia is also frequently using electronic jamming technology blocking the connection between joan and operate. and that is how most of the models have a long yeah. can you have to learn how to get it back without the signal, with

a video transmission? that's all comes with experience. you learn some of that in training, but many nuances are not part of the training. that's when he comes with experience . that is up with them through the summer to visit the next door through inaction. we have to go further towards the front line. the most frequently used goal and as a consumer model from china, the d. j. maverick. it is cheap and easy to get, but it has a very small range. so operate is need to get close to the enemy. the russians. i just over there, we are no less than 2 kilometers from deposition mazda eventually. so sort of give it to you, our task is to keep watch over the quadrant, the blonde. at the moment,

we don't see anything interesting. our task is to constantly fly over this area and keep watch. suddenly the connection is lost. russia is timing on when this happens, you have to leave the woods. it's very dangerous. it's in the open to which you have to get as close as you can to the drawing to try to get the signal but could not see. speak logistics though. they often lose 2 or 3 drones a week that i bought when you get sleep and i'm not going to have a lot of jumping equipment and it's powerful to evacuate them. they have electronic guns which can come to our signal, has placed with them. they've good at that. excuse me. i feel they are drawing army is weaker than ours are on the way out of it. when you flip be there jamming is

much more powerful. no, no gamma, which is c. as this was increasing a forklift tones, it becomes a question of who has the technological edge and who can improvise around? this drone has made it out of the jamming zone. it would need a set of fresh batteries. then it would be ready to fly again. have you ever wondered what it looks like when a star is born? well, here about to get a glimpse. this is a new image released by nasa, which was taken by the overseeing web telescope and it shows a new born still, which will eventually grow into a stuff similar to our own cell. now it's important to remember, of course, that was considered a new born in the lifetime of a star amounts to a huge span of time for us humans. this baby still is already tens of thousands of years old. and with out here, up to date, coming up next to look at how to sign those assets to extend its influence into

europe of being particularly effective in sub yes, that's on talk. so often the break. i'm new kids mckinnon. thanks so much for being with us. and have a lovely day the, the in charlotte the currently move people the on the world wide and such a hassle it as a committed god the castle. josh. find out about robina story info. my grands.
