6:01 pm
a little bit record and it's not for the pains of parts later. and for the welcome to the show, i'm looking for this. more than a 100 people have been killed in lance, lives brought on by one sooner rains in india. hundreds more are fear trapped under the mind and why a non district and the southern state of corolla rescue operations in the hilly region are being hampered by a bridge collapse, unstable ground and continuing rainfall. the army has been deployed to assist local emergency services in the race against time. rescuers face a grueling task as they continue their search for survivors. scores of people are feared trapped under the debris after multiple land slides hit well, villagers slipped the dozens are confirmed. it hundreds more, are injured,
6:02 pm
the month, buried homes and destroyed roads and bridges. authorities say the full scope of the disaster is still unknown. the fear that the gravity of this property is much smaller than this numbers. let's go, patients being gutted open and bought 40 police in the out of fire force and various agencies so actively involved into school patients. the indian army has sent in hundreds of troops to help local emergency services, but their efforts are being hampered by bad weather. with more rain and strong winds forecast. carola is prone to heavy down pores during monsoon season. but experts say climate change is causing an increase in fatal floods and land slides. or i'm joined by dr. jessica holmes interior, technical engineer, and
6:03 pm
a researcher of slope stability among other things. jessica is a great down beyond the show. and over a 100 people dead authority say it's one of the worst natural calamities the state has ever seen. how could these lands lives cause such devastation as well? my sites after it gets by intense, painful events so far it should be. rachel increases the moist content of the cycle, and then not the step licensed slopes. and so when we experience extreme rental events and box and a large scale, um, so i believe that the, the carrier is experienced $218.00 millimeters, a rental, and just 24 hours. and when he consider the fact that corolla typically receives around $3000.00 millimeters in a year, um almost 10 percent in one day is pre extreme. and so that needs quite extreme science of hiring. i'm not as unfortunately what happens here. now more rainfall
6:04 pm
and strong winds are expected in the state. we heard it there in the report. those could then trigger more land slides possibly. how delicate is this rescue operation? well, the rescue operation is obviously being hinted at the moment. i'm by the bosses and prescription. it's a card with the one side, so we know there's been bridge collapses and broad blockages. and you can see and the image is savvy, the real scale of the issue. and so as people try to get safety, and that is why the, i'm says, as long slides obviously will. and the end of the reset, the, the search and rescue operations, which obviously not good news. the told me, landslides, per se, or nothing new. but are you seeing a change in frequency or scale as extreme weather events become more common? you just talked about the increase in rainfall in the state of corolla. yes. so climate change obviously effects everywhere in the world. the effects
6:05 pm
different regions differently. and, but one thing that i think is coming across all regions of the world is that we're seeing more extreme events, further about the mark stream rainfall or more stream droughts and the monsoon areas, no difference. so to the sea corolla does experience monsoons, and unfortunately, it is particularly uncommon for this region of the world to experience nature not to disaster. there was a survey of floods in 2018 and color as well. and, but obviously that is increasing in frequency as we experience more intense range, all events across, across the area. all right, so let's look at what we, what we can do about that your, an engineer yourself. is there anything that can be done to avoid landslides altogether, or you know, just keep them from reaching inhabited areas like what happened here?
6:06 pm
yes. and so we know that obviously climate change is likely to, in increase and frequency of on size we see as well. that's very difficult and it's soft taco there are lots of things that we can do to prevent such lots of life. i'm in the event of alarm slides. so one option is to increase non slight early warning systems. and i roll out and that would involve monitoring some of these sites and then we'd be able to improve the bought la, anyone, any ball on any of the lawn slide, events occurring. and while in these sorts of regions, it might be difficult to mitigate against the failure is due to lack of results. it is possible that we could use these any wanting systems to provide an advance wanting to people so that they could have up to it, which would obviously result in a reduced loss of life. yeah, the other thing is, so he said struction i'm is increasing in these areas as well. so if we reduce
6:07 pm
construction in highly areas, then we reduce vulnerability because the communities wouldn't be affected by non sites. as jessica holmes. thank you so much. i and at least 4 people have been killed and street protests in vain, as well as security forces. use tear gas to disperse. the crowns, and the countries attorney general says more than 700 or rest of been main demonstrators and the opposition coalition. se nicholas monteros presidential election victory is based on fraudulent results. vin, as well as election results, acknowledged in fury on the streets of kinda thousands of protesters defended on the capital to denounce president nicolas my. do to is victory. and what's not the i came to the street because we want freedom, so we got tired of this government. we want to change. we want to be free in
