12:31 pm
the athletes will be used as propaganda by him. russia's president vladimir putin argues ukraine. his war has killed hundreds of ukrainian athletes who hadn't dreamed of gold and glory. others are fighting on the front. it's a reality that weighs heavily on freestyle wrestler e renette calia, danco. still. she is determined to stay fit and focused for the olympics. not only physically, but also mentally the it's me look funny. see. but this is just a lights tweeting station. ukrainian irina quitting cold, gilding up the balance of the big in summer. she's going to be rank, wasn't it before in women, we started with sleep. it requires both spring as well as flexibility and coordination. postponing buckman it'd be a key for younger sister because despite the tweeting routine,
12:32 pm
ongoing russian attacks impossible to ignore them. yesterday i woke up and there was horner, all around, all the cities were bombed and it was impossible to sleep at night. they need either hide in the bathroom or go down to the basement to, to it's mentally and physically difficult. elena is a to time go, we made the list of the, your pin risk link temperature at the last olympics in tokyo, she won drones in the women's freestyle, 62 kilograms evade. now she's going for going in paris. between conditions have been tough ever since the war started getting 2 years ago. this, the reno's regular trim was damaged with the russians indeed,
12:33 pm
and foster the occupied if that was the case with almost everything in 3 months. hometown, around 400 cleats have been killed in the war so far. bomb b has also damaged more than $500.00 spots facilities. the speed you score champion, irina and federal actually used to train her in wrestling, football, toodle and drunk beach. so that was all the know nothings left here here where this whole is. there was a sports jim, but if we trained here and also there on me, it's very painful. and elizabeth brings tears to my eyes because i am unable to change any of this for she anymore. does mean this? it's very unfair. what are we doing? is it triggers a lot of turbulent feelings and made them what see and have a feeling that they really destroyed me from the inside. let's see. the question was, he died so that the by much be with me most the situation well, we tried,
12:34 pm
we used to be a wrestler to now he's the queen's spots minister. he says he doesn't want to see russians at the bible so little bit, not even under the neutral flag for the political vision, logan keep politic, site of sport is a data and much ignored put in specific. i think it is an idealistic picture of a state always invest in olympic sports. i see it in my opinion. these athletes are treating with russian money soaked in blood. and they will be used for russian and propaganda. and they go to storage that he will do to go to store this is that never sees go to bond easy, no, feels the same way of to what she had to go to in the village close to is be this is where she and a sister afflict with aunts abutment when the russians and beat it on from the window, giving us as she saw and to be battered troopers landing of the field outside. the apartment took a direct hit from a walter shed in the family. hit in this basement for both attendees. in
12:35 pm
freezing temperatures and without teaching over so, but it was the finally escaped the russians, but it only took a toy, looks of some of the questions that you know it all accumulated. and at some point, i had a psychological breakdown in the was, i wanted to end my sports career. i didn't want to train anymore. i didn't even want to live. that the reason i didn't want anything at all. off to the wind, she pulled herself together. and me to come back with the help of doctors and especially her coach below to meet the person on the show on it. so i am for an estimates the most important thing is to be able to train regularly to achieve success a trip. but as a part of the letter t as last, then fulman motivation, the last 4 uncertainty arises some of the water when it kind of from the plan now
12:36 pm
is to stick to her training routine and not to think about the next a we load away the next russian misaligned could lend. the of says, my name is what it's all about. communicating with the girls speaking to my relatives and to my coach is my therapist system that i can tell them anything that bothers me and we can talk. i can deal with my anxiety and nervous stress by talking it through you lead us determined to fight with a big school for career and women. we started with a victory for you create so it's a tiny island in the indian ocean at the centre of a migration dispute in europe may out is a french overseas territory. it's status as a day park mall or county means the same laws apply there as they do in paris or provence, for example. but mass migration and may add is putting this principle of equality
12:37 pm
to the test. asylum seekers from africa like for the week have fled to the island in hopes of a better life. and their goal is to receive refugee status and makes their way to mainland europe, but many are stuck in the state of limbo as the asylum process. drugs on. local residents likes to feed us to law. our fed up with their islands being used as a migration route on the island does my, your in the indian ocean a french overseas territory. 8000 kilometers from paris. the official language french, the currency you lose about your 2 is part of the you prefer to leave my, your represents a gateway to you or the teacher from congo has been living here as a refugee for 4 months. he fled the militias in his home country and doesn't want to be identified. he's safer here on my own traffic. we flipped through, congo by the lender in terms of knew i didn't belong. then we heard about my us any
12:38 pm
thought of because they're meant to be human rights and from just want to sell off for us. the living conditions here, her story, somebody i think, i think only for the leading cause applied for asylum of my own. he shares the self built shelter with 9 other refugees. all phases to the combined filtering provisional have the really i need protection from my of the strong some of the rain. la police does this protects you from the rain? no, no. we have no hotel, single emergency accommodation for refugees is getting hard to come by on my out. many live on the street for an illegal camps like this one. and it's getting more and more crowded up to 10 volts carrying hundreds of people arrived daily from the neighbor uncomfortable silence. the archipelago was
12:39 pm
or separated by 70 kilometers of sea. many are calmer and migrants seeking a better light from my yacht. they are meant to find overwhelmed, board and force almost half of all residents, somebody your are no migrants and refugees. the most of them settle here was now one of the use largest slums. home to more than 15000 people. new electricity, no sensory facilities, no clean drinking water, for many of the fear of being picked up and deported by police is ever present. the only feed us to law has had enough chairs, my us largest citizens initiative, unlike many others here, she is unhappy with the level of migration to the island. this is that it's a multi island is so small. there's such a pressure from the migration. we don't have enough resources,
12:40 pm
but when they also services through the citizens initiative is pressuring the islands, administration and demonstrating against illegal immigration. many lead to problems spacing, your plans and the risk of relapse. my oats as becomes something like the left, the dues of france. so, but it leaves tackling the problem. the problem on my, on the other hand, we're all in our own, all alone says number like many other french citizens of my york to law believes that migration is the cause of many of the islands problems the washer. and housing are becoming scarce and crime has increased significantly. many mahoney's fear the young migrants are joining games on the dog, the police has capacity to adequately protect the, the euro school buses attacked for a few cell phones, leaving 5 young people seriously injured. only that they who have models we live in
12:41 pm
constant fear, hurry down with questions like guess what? got us into the situation. i see that for who is to blame, how have we reached this point of no return with the state unable to find a solution? no 1st, before we're there, sort of show to last and the citizens initiative are taking matters into their own hands, organizing patrols and police as they feel the state is feeling them. we join them on a patrol and come across to young migrants of the course of a river. they are washing themselves up stream of a water reservoir, which supplies a large proportion of the islands drinking water with the name of an argument break. so the main thing on fees and end up being one of the patrolling members has raised but wants to remain unknown the metals,
12:42 pm
cuz they're unhappy, they should just go back to should leave my oath alone. they can't just pollute our drinking motor and then threaten us with stones. so that is so unfair. what was no department would accept what is currently happening on my own technical challenges . ok, is it possible next we reached out to the prefecture, the french governments, representatives of miles. how do they intend to solve these problems? despite repeated inquiries, we don't hear back for, for the week, it is only a matter of time before the situation of my own escalates further. if nothing changes tragic people, sadly, we thank friends, but we also want to need to survive some day after filming is completed. and as each camp is cleared, his asylum application is approved and he can leave for friends. he wants to work and contribute to his new home. i don't think, i think we have good jobs at home. i mean, we flip,
12:43 pm
we have to leave everything behind. we can do something good for friends if they give us the opportunity to prove ourselves. we do have a very big february cousin mainland and his sites leaving my york behind for good friends is now trying to restrict citizenship rights for people in may. not critics say the plan goes against the constitution. i imagine having your life ruined all because of a software glitch. that's what happened to hundreds of people running post offices in britain. faulty software showed that their books, when balancing the postmasters, as they are known, were prosecuted and shamed in their communities. this in patel's claims that it was a technical error, were ignored, along with lee castleton. to make matters worse, managers at the top knew the software was to blame. yet instead of admitting the mistake, they tried to cover it up. post office is
12:44 pm
a british institution. i trusted them fully, i put that on rebel and i didn't think they would do anything wrong with it is running a small post office in the english countryside. was the 10 to 1200 joke before time and but it was hit in the heart of ordinary communities like this to the most widespread miscarriage of justice in british history, with quantity unfolding it. so more than $900.00 subspace most is like victim rowley, prosecutors. oh those like the cold fulton with less bankrupt their lives. 20 pounds. it was probably the low, nice place that he won't, could i have to be, you know, he's very uh, the humanizing really the computer processor was done on the floor is a 16 years faulty computer software and stools and priest offices across the u. k. present it must have unexplained shortfalls to which the post office held its sub
12:45 pm
place. most is accountable. the pin was forced to make up more than 87000 euros. in moses, i have to cash in my oil, my pension, and sell my wife's guard to make the books balance, thoughts, it wasn't enough. the pin was convicted of fruit and a 118 weeks suspended prison sentence. and so i had nothing to do. i'm sure i would have committed suicide, which i talked about and tried to contempt late in doing so. a few times. this is how for us to be declined at taylor of the community, branded the criminal that was hatred. literally, a campaign of hayes pushed towards my father and also as a family that was a wanted dead or a life post. all of my saw the full, full cross outside of the shop and said, all right, the, the pin essentially sending one data message is
12:46 pm
a 300 kilometers away in the northern fishing town brewington. this is already a story well known to stellar victim lee called fulton. this is a photograph for when we 1st moved in to berlington with all our hopes and dreams. it was a great time. quickly his dream of buying a beautiful post office on the case became a nightmare. by christmas we had a mis balance of 1103 pounds and 18 b, which i put it in. believing i made a mistake. i got to the balance of the following week and we were short again and that continued for 12 weeks of that period of time i made 91 phone calls to the outline, repeating and repeating, late asking for help. it was he, the desperate the request didn't, would it get found lost as the almost 30000 years. we would be shower that in the streets, fee for whatever my daughter was bullied at school, which was horrendous,
12:47 pm
terrible time for her and which led to the eating disorder, which was the 10 years my wife had seizures from anxiety that go into epilepsy. and you know, it's just really difficult to deal with that. a very difficult, the post office took me to london to my quotes. unable to pay for a lawyer, he represented himself in last. he was ordered to pay over $375000.00 euros. and legal fees. lee was bankrupted. i quickly to holding some dry sound in your hands. and the more that you tried to stop the sound falling from your hands, you just watch your wife crumbling around you. and there's just nothing you can do . nothing else we can do about it. a fee is post office, maintains the with no thoughts with the system. li like this and was told his the only case you're responsible for the law. i haven't got that money. i don't know
12:48 pm
where he's gone. well followed was highlighted this year and a sensational tv drama response from national outrage. it shows lee and others and bulking on adult search for the truth. red, leading them to hundreds of other votes for the software were finally proven in the labs, won't quote victory against the post office in 2019 public inquiries now on the way . as is a criminal investigation. so fall, no one's been held accountable. people were prosecuted by people, you know, the system didn't work well. this is about people. this is our people in power being able to do things to people not involved the little table. and if we learn anything from this is this should never ever happen again. the post office is apologized for post events and says it's cool for writing city with the inquiry. comments accurate by fidget, see the company which developed and manage the software. thoughts for the victims, the science phone for me that i still very much i'm in my mind,
12:49 pm
a victim and applying to be as of either. that's me. definitely a yet to receive full compensation. dozens of others have died before seeing the names cleared. i'm 70 or so it has that gone for a lot of people, i have a lot of anxiety as to how long this will still take. and i, fee of the john says it must do drug and for quite some time with the public spotlight. now, laser focused on this scandal, the pressure is on to expose the truth and see just to subs for those who pointed phone to long. this is green hydrogen renewable energy made from water in spain. a new hydrogen plan has been built on the island of new york to power buses and eventually even buildings. european governments hope it can become a source of clean energy for the continent. but there is a problem,
12:50 pm
the region is experiencing a water shortage. reservoirs are running low as rainfall decreases, and temperatures increase. residents, including margarita remedies don't believe, and the green hydrogen hype and others agree that the project is littered with obstacles. spain hopes to become a green giant and all the challenges and opportunities that go along with the i can already be seen on my ok at 7 in the morning and the out of carlos bus company. mcguire. torrance is filling up with hydrogen of the it takes between 8 and 10 minutes and it's quite simple. i'll see you this evening. the company operates 200 buses, 5 of them you run on hydrogen with funding from the you. life it is one of the difference is that it's almost silent. pull you up on that. all right, i'm going to start the bus now. then listen to the site and it's all new and house driving it, which is you want to love it. very smooth side but,
12:51 pm
and that's why we that and then these are leaving behind. nothing more than what a 100 and how the buses and that water the, that hudson coast twice as much as diesel around $35.00 heroes more to a 100 kilometers. it isn't the market that's driving these buses. it's political will so solve the hutch and still comes from the mainland. but this plant in my oca will be supplying the clean fuel within a few weeks. solar fields provide clean energy to split most into the valuable hydrogen and oxygen. this is where it happens, and they've given this box to special name. let me know i need the, the tricky one. this is the electrolyzer and it's the heart of the system component . and it's not the 1st time the water is purified because many pure water
12:52 pm
to the water and the electricity come together. here at the end of the process. green energy, hydrogen needs the plan. if you don't have it in future this free time on the fly, the timer will also be supplied. snap with this is a gambling the future strategy name. so i'm not for the present but for wants us to come. those could they, we believe the tourism will seem to have to be sustainable or no longer be possible or no asset possibly. thomas port also wants to receive hydrogen, but not everyone of them are. you will cause happy about the hydrogen plant and how to be kind of the nearby side um in between, what do you see? do you have to yeah, the other speak soon as there was last year, there were restrictions on water consumption either way that includes people were not allowed to filter swimming pools or water their garden as best as a scenario. so those units gay in adding such a mass of water consumer under these circumstances, it is extremely short sighted. we meet the stains,
12:53 pm
lodges 100 percent of the cases in the countries interior where there is little water and these times of drought. what little water is available is used by the foaming sink to, to prevent further cropped fad. yes. i, you suggested will complete the that will be a conflict. despite in spain, the cheapest renewable energy is inland lighting video, there is new access to see water and only limited amounts of waste water are available at the end. and so in the interior of the country, it will probably be a direct conflict over water. don't think though, you think the only problem in the past months have been filed to dry. and this is illustrated how fragile the dream was becoming a green giant can be looked at by your alarm shows. it takes a lot of subsidies, pioneering spirits and water to get hydrogen up and running as an energy source. even luckily it's one of the world's most endangered feline species, the burying links,
12:54 pm
its population was designated but thanks to conservation efforts in portugal, their numbers are steadily rising in the gaudy on a valley. natural part of the team is dedicated to bringing the cats back from the brink of extinction. biologist, carlos kyra pato is part of the project to restore the missing links in the bio diversity chain. the lynx crosses the silver screen. more than 20 organizations joined together and 20 or 2 to see the endangered, i'd be the in links in danger. thanks to humans, especially the regions farmers. they fear their lives. stock will be threatened that the links population is allowed to grow again. lisa and got to the links as a cash the and the contents teams to play with the chase other animals or and yes, sometimes that can become an attack on lambs, cuz you know, each link says favor rabbit says print the rabbit populations are diminishing due to hunting and the virus, so links, populations diminished to every new litter is seen as a success. meanwhile,
12:55 pm
the linked rescue project has a load. the cats population in portugal with neighboring speed to increase 10 fold . the link speeding center has contributed as well. specialists are breeding and observing the animals behavior in a closely guarded reserve. it's all being done to reduce the cats contact with humans to almost new instance. okay, so it's important that they behave as they would in the wild as much as possible because keep in mind, so they can also live naturally as they always use to consume for when they're released into the wild. they shouldn't be reliant on humans looking after them. ok . and it seems to be working here on the young links. these are fried, they're not interested in humans. instead they go and speak, or they're old home territory. bit by bit a. well, that's all from us. this week i focus on europe. don't forget, you can watch more of our show on our website and d,
