who missed out the hello and terry martin, thanks for joining us. the world health organization has declared a global public health emergency following an outbreak of a new strain of the em fox virus in africa. the virus formerly known as monkey pox can be passed on through close contact and causes flu like symptoms and lesions on the body and can be deadly. it's now been detected in at least 13 african countries, but one country in particular has been hit hard. the democratic republic of congo and bulk says, searching across africa. and this is grounds there by thousands of cases hoping that posted in the democratic republic of congo. as

a new outbreak grips the country, it's already claimed at least $450.00 lives. most of them children, and it's showing no sign of slowing down the detection and drop you to spread off a new laid off impulse in eastern and the odyssey. it's detection in neighboring countries that had not previously reported and books. and the potential for the, for the spread within africa and beyond is very, warding united option to add that out, breaks of other plates, of, and books in other parts of africa is clear to that, to coordinate that international response is essential to stop these outbreaks. and save lives, formerly known as monkey pokes and poke spreads to place contact, including sex, causing flu like symptoms and painful pests filled legions. but this new strain is

proving more infectious and even more deadly. an expert spirit, a growing outbreak in africa, could just be the tip of the iceberg. we believe that it's already 8 weeks uh, for international sprayed down. of course. there is also the chance that'd be good . it spread beyond africa to order. we don't serve the world. the world health organization last declared impulse and international health emergency in 2022, with cases in more than 70 countries. that was locked the shut down with the help of vaccines and treatments in which countries very few of those that are available in africa and global health officials. hype, this new emergency declaration will kick stats and the international efforts to contain the disease. negotiations of our plan to end the war and guys are scheduled to start to encounter today. the region is on edge,

as israel awaits retaliation from a rand after the killing of a mass political leader is male anita into run. because she does want to use a plan put together by the, by the ministration at the end of may and endorsed by the un security council. it calls for a 6 week cease fire and gaza from us would release its remaining is really hostages and exchange for post any prisoners. israel would allow and would allow, in unlimited a deliveries and its forces would withdrawal from gaza. but how much says it's losing faith in the us as a mediator and will not attend the talks top official and concert for the palestinian militant group whose october 7th, a terror attacks a spark. the war said, i'm us will still be willing to be brief afterwards on the points discussed a national that's all we expect to be told by the media to the israel has an accepted watch is being offered. and any meetings should be based on talking about implementation mechanisms and setting deadlines rather than negotiating something

new. otherwise less time, us find no reason to participate. the deal being discussed in the how has been on the table for months. so why are we seeing movement in these negotiations now? i, as you'll see, michael, back from the chatham house, middle east and north africa program. i think the main change. he's that state and commission community is losing his special sweet voice, both sides and wants to see if he wants to see it says for the release of the hostages to many, to age into the into guys are and most simple and fee start looking to the day after the end of day or the war. but what's happening right now is because there is it's connected to sleeping also. we've an expense, could it that by increased by the i did at the same time, see, will eventually also for the g on use that as a design goal is to assess the nation running in the one thing that the cost

of deliverables come. i see somebody let me here and this is by the official duty and being but won't to that so cool. so i think why now they think between reaching section agreements, piece of building section and thought they came back then kind of released into a form roll. so there is fresh momentum here. how much negotiating power the those, how mos have left at this point. given all of the defeats that it suffered so far, i think maybe it's, it's main code is the hostages. so they told him how to 20 or 20 hostages. we don't know how many demo a student likes, and i think the impression was. so mounting insight is a solution in today ma'am, that at least some of the hostages, which should it didn't then you know government because the bang bang can go to

your condition every time there is there is that by then proposing that, but i mean, i was behind these and often hits and then a start delaying the document relating because of the show this fall i know to each section it to them and they go to play. oh, it's your main thing, the law against commerce. then the release of all the hostages. i think describe students do the song they're wanting the comments about how much they stay in the oh, well because of this also includes the, the vision. i'm going to say it's one function of this content and against the transition. it's also getting my lease and regional manual if it suits me, that she know how difficult do you think it will be to reach a meaningful deal under these circumstances? extremely they said that i think we shouldn't down to the estimates because as it stands, it doesn't seems why the world that's the sense of urgency to reach an agreement

and say, hey, was for the vision of all ending the one dresser. it already claimed the life of so many innocent people. i think the leadership so don't share the sense of urgency and defense the end of the day. so smith, i know he's afraid of these is government collapsing as a result of funding during the fall i seemed to go home and give saying that it would lead in case of such a, such an event that the same time the overall king. but when, since by a bring, the men in tempe and mounting enjoys them as a ship, a location of the most of them will. so the conversation between these are the body takes that to make it smaller. no, this should punctuation. and that was the also, you might go back from the chatham house, middle east and north africa program. let's catch up on a few other stories making headlines around the world today. student protesters

have gathered in the bank and with that she capital duck in an attempt to block rallies by the supporters of else did. prime minister shake a scene in august. 15th is a public holiday in bangladesh. the anniversary of the assassination of i've seen this father, a former president around 300 people died in student lead demonstrations. recently the ended has seen his rule tropical storm and s, though has strengthened into a hurricane after dumping. torrential rain on the us territory of puerto rico. the storm knocked out power to over 700000 people on the island. ernesto is forecast has strengthened into a major hurricane and passed close to bermuda on saturday. as activists say, one of europe's last remaining primeval forests is in danger. as wild buyers burn in bosnia as old as national park authorities of deployed firefighters and military helicopters to battle the blaze which broke out on sunday. it's been 3 years now

since the taliban took over afghanistan. now german visa program for afghans who used to work for german institutions in afghanistan is about to and, and many of the nationals remain in limbo. when to tell about, sees control from the democratically elected governments. in 2021. the receives of chaos as of guns tried to flee. germany promised visas to thousands of at risk people who had worked for civil society. but the program only took in about $600.00 people is now shutting down. that's left more than 5000 napkins within certain future. include numerous former f ken judges who were recently refused visas by germany. they say without justification, our next report looks at one such story stuck in uncertainty. this off gun judge whose identity were protecting for his own safety, says that if the german government had not rejected his visa application,

he would not be in germany with his family. a small i emailed the german development agency t i z asked me for the reason behind the rejection of my case. unfortunately, i did not get a reply g i z repeatedly stated that it was the embassies decisions. but we have no contact with the german embassy because g i z as in contact with us and with the embassy. according to this, i've gotten judge the families of all the gun judges were staying in hotels, funded by the german government through g eyes that however, when their visas were rejected, they were also evicted from the hotels and they now live in rented houses. we rented a room and one of as lama about suburbs. and as you can see,

there's not much in the room. we don't even have anything to cover the floor. i cannot afford to live with my family here. and so i sent them back throughout the ghana stem. i had to be separated from my family. there was a tragic moment in my life. this is the 1st time i've been separated from my family . after the turnip on took control of campbell. i've gotten a stance form or judicial system was replaced by the tyler bonds sharea system. the tyler bond, replace the judges, prosecutors and professional staff of the ministry of justice with their own people . all graduates of religious schools, like many other employees of the former system, the traditional and legal staff sort asylum in other countries. the we ask the german federal government not to reject asylum cases based on minor and

unjustified reasons known only to them. because asylum seekers have no other option . asylum seekers face security threats under helpless. that's why they seek protection in different countries. it's unfair to approve the case of the essential states only to reject it later and crush our hopes. and there's no end in sight to the uncertainty for this former judge and others like him, as funds for germany's resettlement program may be cut on. joining yourself from berlin is social richter, who's with the sponsorship network, which helps up ends who fled the country, start a new life here in germany. thanks for being with us. now, thousands of backgrounds have been promised a new life here, but just a fraction of those who have made it out of afghanistan has germany failed in your opinion, to help those whose lives are most in danger. so

i think the, the, the program doesn't perfect for sure. um, especially if it was the not most i've really difficult to to explain when we talk about that. but i mean, the drum, instead of admission program 12 get us to and is the right knowledge. only lifeline for us produce at risk such as human rights defend us journalists and government employees. and also the not most that disappointed the quote. the program has successfully reset codes, hundreds people, every life safety i would so we sink and it's in part of it's, it's a great to, to act on this thousands of years, separate men. that's us that has been made this individual who's faced immune sweats and actually also they do softball protection for sure. now the federal visa program here in germany was introduced with great fanfare. 2 years ago. it's budget

is a, is on the chopping block. now what does that mean for people like the judge we just saw in our report for for sure, for, for them it's disappointed and viewed as, as the association actually for locus stuff, we advocate for, for people at the risk. and so we, once that's the government's b, foster be quicker ends with less, with blue cross the to it helps them. and it's one of the cases we have many of them which shows that's the race up to just to straight. and there too many across the u as a it's jeff is right. that's now your organization, sasha ever supports locals who worked for german institutions in afghanistan. what

are you summary? what are some of your biggest challenges that you're facing with that now? um for sure, the so the local stuff sponsorship network, we had a chance to evacuate and rescue more than 900 local stuff from afghanistan would only switch a nation's 1st to him. but also as the federal administration program, we have the right now the problems was, was the funds and also with all of the food credit stuff. so especially for local stuff of put their lives on the line for us. they the responsibility to watch local stuff for us as a mobile and human to terry in an application and all of the blue cross c m here. it's one of the biggest problems for sure. okay, sasha rest are with these bus ship network. uh, here in berlin,

thank you very much. thank you. ukraine says its forces are continuing their advance into russia. is course creech in 10 days after launching their surprise attack. ukrainian present blooded mister lansky says his government has held a talks on setting up a military administration, in course to allow the evacuation of civilians. steve said, plans says it plans to use the area as a strategic buffers are and to protect its border areas from russian attacks. as your cranes cross border advance into russia has also renewed calls for its western allies to drop their restrictions on how their weapons are used. let's take a look now at those so called red lines and how changing the, by the fact the situation on the battlefield. taking the fight to enemy territory, ukraine's incursion into russia. putting the spotlight on its capabilities and

rushing vulnerabilities, allegedly using western supplied fighting vehicles. us senators, visiting keith as the operation was unfolding, said it's time to allow refrain to use it with weapons as it pleases, striking, farther into russian territory. a red line. the us has so far, shied away from we want to convey to the administration of methods that it should provide more flexibility and authority to ukraine in using the weapons that have been provided. described deeper behind the lines that exist right now. there are limits and issues of permission we hope to cut through them. thank you very much for your training and president for letting me as a lensky has long been fighting to erase that red line. yeah, the show me is the minutes the defend. does she not? oh, great training unit. the book similar will cause even activity as possible with the

minimum range of people that use the ukraine. right now we need appropriate permissions from all hong is to use. i don't range weapon less us to survive and they look would be me. so this is something that consumers, that the can be my phones, the just the end of this noise at this point as well as safe styles of ukrainian light, was from russian with her features that you were great every day she's got to the front line and ukraine has moved little in recent months with russia slowly expanding the territory. it occupies capturing a handful of villages at great cost. now for the 1st time, ukraine controls, parent tory inside russia. ukraine says it holds an estimated 1000 square kilometers in the cursed region. the shaded area here shows the area of the russian boarder regence of brianna cost and belgrade that are in range of us supplied high mars missile launchers that ukraine has now. but almost all of russia's military and air bases are beyond that range. so landscape has consistently pushed to use

longer range missiles like advanced attack gums that can fire up to a 170 kilometers another red line. but that would make it harder for russia to protect the air bases from which it launches most of its air attacks on ukraine, cities, and infrastructure. there are also attack comes with a 300 kilometer range, which could threaten even more russian assets. over the past 2 years, the west has escalated its own arms deliveries from high mars, multiple rocket launchers to tanks, to long range missiles to fighter jets. each considered a red line all without russia taking serious steps to counter over the conflict. the red lines have changed. earlier this year, the us said ukraine to use a truck comes to fire across the board. only in parts of the hockey region that we're under attack from russia. that's not the same area where you cranium troops searched across the border this week. for his part,

russian president vladimir putin has said he has the red lines to warning of possible nuclear escalation. if russian territory is the time we have the rest of the, of those warnings, the crazy person. unfortunately, soil playing it down and blaming the way was not doing suitable symbol. but apparently which is the animal with the help of this west. and i'm often useful finding that will you find the way it is fighting with us, with the hands of ukrainian lisa samuel, huge. it seems the red lines may not be quite so red as refrain, tried to desperately to troops the calculus on the battlefield. soon as you're away for just to be sure, blood work good. returning to our top story, the world health organization has sounded the alarm over an outbreak of m parks in africa as cases surge of putting 13 countries. the w h o has declared a global health emergency. well, for more on this we can now talk to julian tang,

he's a river ologist at the leicester royal infirmary in the u. k. and teachers of university there. thanks for being with us. tell us more about this latest surgeon and pox cases. how is this outbreak different from the 12 years ago? a hi. so thanks the have me on the, the difference is really due to the different plates. oh, strains. if you like, of this impulse virus. the strain from 2 years ago it was a global strain and the tide to which is the circle west of the constrain. and i pretty much milder and more limited in terms of clinical severity than the original kite one virus. the one is now a spitting plus, asked me to is a branch of the code one virus now to take from b. and this part, the originals frank strains, and that the aussie democratic, the condo, this has a higher mortality is most of the same in clay,

and made increasing trans disability compared to the original endemic played one a strain from the r c. talk to us more about this transmit ability because the this impacts variance has now it's just new strain has spread to 13 countries. the outbreak of hundreds of people have died mainly children. why has this new variant been able to spread so quickly? so yeah, so that's a good question i think was the lift into this, but the original straight from the all see the claim. one a the light that was limited in terms of the it would be spread beyond that, maybe 3 or 4 generations. and then it would die out that it's often consummate from, i mean more risk was in the original and dummy kerio. now it looks like devices adapted to shooting to human transmission. again, something we saw with tribute 19 after even several years. but this was just being around and active in many, many, many more years. we've none of us ever 50 or 60 years. so i suspect that more cases

more human faces or alarm diversity follow intrinsic more efficient with change humans, which it might be. so we tribute 19 of the size of 2 bars. how much of a difference do you think it'll make that the w h o is now declared the impacts outbreak to be a global public health emergency probably shouldn't make a great difference. normally these faces, we call them p h e i sees that tends to be announced when you want to release more funding and more resources that to those those particular epidemics or pandemic situations. and this should hopefully allow this release of funding and resources and those from countries of course, they are already quite stream as resource limited in many other ways. should people outside of the effective regions be worried about their own health?

could this virus end up spreading much further and if so, what precautions should people be taking? so yes, of course, as we saw it 2 years ago, they tried to straighten spread globally along the so called amazon network. they, the midwest exit men sexual network. but this is much more, a indiscriminate seems to be spreading across the heterosexual population and other general populations. it may be less transmissible. i'm excited to be strained, turned out to be again, we need more daytron. this. have to wait, transmits a street, intimates, close contracts of saliva kissing, touching with a confounded secretions. and also this of evidence of at close range as what transmission after a prolonged code of contact like in the household for example, or an intimate relationship. right. okay. all right, we're going to have to leave it there. julian, thank you very much for talking with us. that was rutledge's julian tang at the

university of list now nasa officials say they have until the end of the month to decide how to bring back to american astronaut. so been stuck on the international space station. so need to williams and barry wilmore were only supposed to be on the i assessed for 8 days but they've been stuck there now for over 2 months. their return has been delayed due to malfunctions on the boeing star line or they've brought them there now. so still checking it's is space, craft is safe enough to bring them back, or if they should wait until 2025. to come back on a space ex ship, or you're watching the w news coming to live from berlin. before we go, we're going to take you to outer space and get with some dazzling pictures of an aurora captured from the international space station. i'm terry martin. thanks for joining the
