that would tossed into waterways and piled up in the streets by the freshest flood waters to the extensive damage his daily life. to a halt overall portfolio bill. we haven't been through the worst part yet. done. nothing can come through, no food to go nothing. the only thing that comes of the rescue trucks that can maybe bring a bit of food, but you need to walk 15 to 20 kilometers to buy some bridge metals. by up on the pipe. that was no warning w w knows i think in the end it was too much for everyone. it's true that they should have been warned, but in those circumstances, i don't think anyone could have done anything. it was something extraordinary. never seen before a mind. oh, my parents lifetime, i get thing or your you love any fathers, not. experts say that climate change is to blame for heavy storms in flooding
9:03 pm
becoming more common. but they will say point to the failures in the low cooling system for not keeping residents in these high risk areas in valencia safe . the fact that we didn't hear those going to be. so people in the bronx like they haven't received the warnings in time. and they've already neck deep in malta, when they got those alerts on their cell phones, you know, not suggest on physical therapy room. there with the bullying system. springs prime minister petro sanchez. net with me to relo to collect spots and emergency workers in the region to discuss the flood damage as residents question, if more could have been done to wound them what corresponding young for they showed some pull me up to date from the outskirts of valencia to the rescue operations
9:04 pm
on going here 500 to just move holds us arise to today and they support the police, the firefighter, and so the, the protection officers and the military unit. and i have seen also a lot of volunteers coming in today. so many in fact, that some authorities have already warned that this could over run the damage in front structure of the street and the bridges ends. in some cases, this could actually do more harm than goods or parties have also informed the public that the percentage is still fine survivors more than 2 days after the floods. it's a lead to a very slim now, and that's people really is that follow the instructions of the parties because actually the mixer or logical or forecast says that's more rain could be a, has in the coming days. not only involuntary,
9:05 pm
but also in other parts of the john phillips shouts in valencia cut all that kinda is an associate professor in the sense of a flight risk and resilience, but al university of london, welcome to d. w. let's start with what might have gone wrong. in our report, we had people criticizing or thought his felt like a warning about this disaster, but we do know the interfering floodway and the system data board repeatedly about the adverse weather system of a central europe. so did spain ignore those warnings? i mean, obviously in detailed investigations will need to happen in terms what happens in the chain of command of those things. but it is quite clear. one cornerstone of community resilience is that you have good communication channel. people need to be informed time needs been previously mentioned, that people were only getting the alerts when they were already sitting and browning costs. these holdings need to happen early, they need to go,
9:06 pm
why the radio, why a tv. we need to mobile phone emergency services, and nothing not to forget is full so that we need appropriate a sovereign warning systems because not everybody will have maybe a mobile phone on them. but you need to allege your community in order to keep them safe. okay, so those are big a doubtless recommendations for the the, the future is face now over or should spain the pricing for more heavy rains in the next few days to the full cost. since there will be continued. rain may be the brunt of it has been, has been seen already, but i think we also need to look into the future. this is now not just one in a 200 year flood, and then it's open that we will be safe. the impact of climate change significant, we will see more and more extreme with the in the future. and i think we need to
9:07 pm
get our communities ready. and that means that we are also providing training at community level. if you have a large building where a lot of people work, you practice when you have a fire and hurts to make sure that in the then defy it happens that everybody knows what needs doing. at the community level with the flooding situation, we are not doing this yet, but i think this is something where all communities need to work towards. people need to know what to do with the electricity, and in the event of a flooding, do we need to have emergency bags packed, ready to go? need to know where the next a safe haven area is. in case of that we should be a flooding. and what about the rebuild does an area like valencia, which has seen the sorts of storms, although not on this magnitude. and how do they, how should they rebuild to?
9:08 pm
well i think she is, we are rebuilding, we need to rebuild back to then what, what was there. and that means that we are rebuilding and building in climate resilience that we're building and resilience that can be progressed in case of whether becoming more and more severe. i mean obviously the for example of tao like tokyo has been building a huge underwater cathedral in order to be able to haul is to the store waters at short. notice these are very, very costly infrastructure project and not necessarily every town is able to do this. but you can do a lot of things on a smaller scale in order to build in resilience both at the hop engineering side. but also we soft engineering measures. those in turn them together would hopefully help that we are not seeing these kind of demonstrations that we have on the news
9:09 pm
today. thank you so much for joining us. kind of electronic from the center for flood risk and resilience for now, university of london. or out of botswana, which is saying it's 1st change of government. and over 60 years president, the website of the routing botswana democratic party has conceded defeat after being bound the beaten in parliamentary elections. this week celebrations began after a surprise landslide victory footboards one of mean opposition party. and this meant to my broken like human rights lawyer. it said to be the country's next president. did the 3 of his body the i'm pretty know for democratic change broke these ruling books, one of democratic bodies, 6 tickets long group one, father, my sister in a country or some 2600000 people, many have expressed frustration against the ruling elite. and that's when i'm
9:10 pm
glad that we have the change in government and we've been unhappy because of unemployment. now we look forward to seeing what the new government will do for us . i'm so happy, however, our elections went full. we wanted was change to a new government government. what's one of the incumbent president mocked mitsy must easy conceded defeat even before the final results were announced. he assured a smooth transition of father in the coming days. we want to take this and i assure you that i will not take any actions or slow down this process. the the harvard educated autonomy do mobile form.
9:11 pm
do you, do you see the body in 2012 to unite the opposition to the b d b. that has pledged to adopt a board economic strategy to create developing jobs into a fed bells distribution. and then father, every citizen now, after all these years, it's the chance to govern the diamond grid. so the norfolk a nation will d, w, correspond to down whole k has been monitoring events from johannesburg and they bring south africa as to about the significance of this moment. absolutely full, quite a moment and what's one of history? and i think something that many african states will also look at going forward with the situation in, but the one i think the pdp has been seen to be, you know, done and for so many years. although it's, it's numbers have been decreasing over time. i don't think anyone could have
9:12 pm
anticipated such a a significant loss. all 3 of the parties did better in this election than the ruling party for an incumbent government in potty to lose at that level is quite significant. and it shows that the voters in which one was sending quite a clear message to the government that they felt that the government was simply not doing enough to address the everyday needs and social concerns that have been adding up over the past few years. outside of atlanta, it's also something that we'll, we'll get as a political lead is talking about what this means in date, for their own governments. how vote is, might reacting in, in different elections. now that they've seen that it's a party that has government on the african continent can have this kind of a significant loss is just tell us a bit more about it. so some of the factors in this election that led to, they said reversal. it's definitely bread and,
9:13 pm
but to issues for this election, a lot of books, but why not spoke about how they, the living conditions have listened over the past few years. some of those issues could be attributed to external factors, such as a cobit 19 pandemic, which many countries are still struggling to recover from. but one of the key issues in which one has been that the economy is really not diversified about 90 percent of the countries exports all diamond products and with the economy that's. that's heavily reliant on the diamond industry. when anything happens in that industry, or people simply are not buying diamonds at that same level, it immediately has a massive impact. and that's what's been seen in, but it's one day sitting with 27 percent unemployment in this, at this stage. many people have also called a complaint, but they feel that there's a high level of corruption. and the big disconnect with those in the b b that the
9:14 pm
party and the what the ordinary, what's why not of going through? and that is what leads to the significant election outcome. ok, thank you, don. don, whole kicking john is i will take a look at the small stores making headlines. these 13 people have been killed as part of a booth. collapse of the main train station in the service with, you know, be, say, let's say 3 people can take them to the hospital savings injures interior minister says the fontes are trapped in the seasonal sizes and protesting about that employment condition. supplies for the lease outside of the creek, poverty, athens, visual. se 14 people were injured by sizes that demanding full time employment of their current contracts. only run from may to october. they say grease needs year round 5 sites and take the business of us. um for say say um support is
9:15 pm
a full presidency, but obviously i'm taking around 20 soldiers hosted the barracks. this comes active for these try to clean vote. has it been blocked by the robbers course for maybe 3 weeks? yeah, protest is one to prevent morales arrest. i'm lucky. i says, trump tell them right charges you're able to go around. says it's kill the senior. how much the official in an ass striking the 1600 units in southern gaza? the military described is valid in the cassava is one of the last high ranking members of the militant group. this is tough. you and officials describe the situation in northern gaza, apocalyptic and bordering that gases in time palestinian population is at risk of dying from disease funding and violence. the calling for an immediate cease fire of israel to allow you monetary a to enter the territory. and i think that hundreds of college students are free
9:16 pm
kills last few days. i love the area has been under siege for almost a month. isn't. i'm says it's printing how much better sense responsible. last tuesday, october 7th. tax is get most of my senior international correspondent, the for the for shot introduce the welcome funding. let's start with the latest in, gosh, i please, as hardly any day goes by. and this also is the case right now that we do not seeing you with disturbing images of civilians being pulled from the rubble of buildings level to the ground of civilians rushed to whatever is left of a medical facility. let us know and medical staff. and if he can still refer to these hospitals as hospital, now why this is ongoing and why it is clear that many wouldn't waste civilians have to pay sometimes the ultimate prize and those death at ease wells has that he's very important for them to do this. offensive and renew their offensive, especially in the northern part of guys because in fact, this is the 3rd time since the ongoing guys of with this 3rd time that is right,
9:17 pm
has shifted and shifted back its focus. and those and guys are claiming that loss is regrouping, but they've been also taxed and many other parts of this trip as well in the center . and as we just sort of in the south is valid in hon eunice, which is what claims that they have actually killed allegedly, one of the last senior members of the political bureau whose name may be not as much known as that of us involved. for example, one of the v this has been, the media has been killed more than 2 weeks ago. but israel says, according to the biography of the senior leader, he's been allegedly coordinating terrorist attacks against ease route and coordinating, not only within how much, but also has been the person to go to basically between various militant groups. why this isn't going? why attacks are again increasing, especially in the northern parts of gaza. israel is heavily pounding the neighboring country to the north from here, if israel and that is the bottom. yeah,
9:18 pm
let's talk about the targets. israel is facing the inside level. it's very interesting to note that since the diplomatic efforts have intensified, especially the us invoice to bring about some sort of a ceasefire wherever the truth and how long it may take between has been limited since it is well that since the time is, are actually stepped up, it's a tax most recently now within the past 24 hours. not only the southern parts of flipping on, but also again concentrating on de route on the capital here, especially on the southern part of the route on the here, the strong cold of the spell, the militants, but also off of the ball back region into to the northeast of the world, so various pores in live on on one can really see the why this is ongoing. one can only literally speak about nega sion for truth under fire and a 5 prime and is to the care take a prime. and it's definitely been obvious to me talking said that the current attacks and the steps up air attacks and bombardments in live on on,
9:19 pm
but use well confirm only one thing and that is the prime minister netanyahu. israel is clearly not interested in any ceasefire. thanks, a lot of i think i dw, is that senior international correspondent for the, for shot in june, some of the united states before days to go before the presidential election. the democratic and republican candidate supreme campaigning in the western states democrat to become a how does receive support from cigna and access action for the past campaign in las vegas, vice president ward vote just a donald trump with scale back health care programs. if he wins a repub comes mr. trump hell valley as a new mexico and the valley is appliances and team gratian policies. he's trying to bring my team involved in some of the key swing states that could make the difference in an actual college vote. and if they come back into our country, it's all the presidential candidates of raise more than a $1000000000.00 each. and this election cycle, it was a good deal of it,
9:20 pm
spent in the final phase of the campaign. so where did it all come from? and was it was it? the psalms are staggering. democrats and republicans combined to spend half a $1000000000.00 on advertising in 2 weeks and october $81000000.00 raised by commer harris and a single day in july. daily giveaways of a $1000000.00 from the law mosque paid to people who sign his petition, attracting the attention of the justice department. not to mention the $118000000.00 and counting that most has contributed to a trump allied group. but this campaign isn't just unprecedented in a huge sums raised and spent for the republicans. what used to be kept backstage a gentlemen's agreement, the campaign cash would be converted to a special favor as after the election is now literally out in front. even most trumps. big as donor appears it is rallies gallery loud. yes,
9:21 pm
terry and trump says he'll put most can charge of cutting federal spending if elected by everyone. a democrat allied groups have their own mega donors to including bill gates who gave $50000000.00. harris often courts, wall street and silicon valley donors. but her promises to backers have remained more traditional with no explicit favors made public. the harris campaign also relies on millions of small donors, people who give $200.00 or less to finance its operations. running for president has always been shockingly expensive. but campaign budgets have exploded in recent years from a few $100000000.19 to me. nearly 4000000000 and 2020. from the tale for this election comes in. it will be by far the most expensive in us history. the money flows from individuals and corporations to campaigns and political action committees or packs. individuals can only give a few $1000.00 to
9:22 pm
a candidates campaign, but can get around this by donating to packs which then give the money to campaigns . and corporations can only contribute to packs, to escape the limits. there's a different category of so called super packs that can spend money to influence the election usually on advertising, but are officially not allowed to coordinate with the candidates campaign. the huge sums don't always translate into votes, however, or starting about 10 years ago, the democrats have consistently spend more than republicans. in 2016 hillary clinton out spent donald trump by about 2 to one, and yet she lost the biggest spend are also lost in 198496 in 2004. it is time around democrats have out spent republicans again on advertising for commer harris, while hope poll numbers slid slowly down as the weeks went by ending in
9:23 pm
a virtual dead heat about coming into the election to get votes. democrats are also poor and campaign money in the old fashion organizing efforts. that means trained volunteers supervised by experience political workers knocking on doors and trying to motivate voters to actually go to the polls for their candidates. for republicans have outsourced most of that work to packs, including masks, a big gamble on inexperienced private groups giving money to politicians because always a gamble that they will win. but this time around, the republicans have tried to frame that gamble as a simple investment in tray over him. trump has removed the guard rails yet again, telling you i must, that is money can guarantee him a job and explicitly promising a range of big businesses that he will help them out in exchange for donations. telling them in clear terms that their money will be well spent. regular raja
9:24 pm
is professor political science and co director of the university of massachusetts. i'm post poll. i asked him about the link between the money donated to candidates campaigns on the policies like this. you as well. certainly the people who uh, who give money have preferences. and many times the preferences have already been aligned with the parties they choose to give to. so it's very similar, but then again, you have to wonder, are there specific targeted policies that people might be getting? for instance read hoffman, who is the, runs netflix. he doesn't like the, the person who or who's regulating and television and broadcast. and so he might get some benefits from the harris campaign if she should win, but usually it's not very out in the open what they're getting an exchange we saw and therefore that visa is appears to be with this was certainly between donald trump and a long mask that seems extraordinary and well, looks at that from
9:25 pm
a bro and it says, well, how is that legal? oh that you did a great job with that piece explaining a complex subject and then showing what the deal are must grow as you know, he can campaign with whoever he wants. usually in the past, it's a norm not to make it so obvious that you're, you're putting your, your biggest donors front in the center with trump, as with other things he, he breaks these north. and so he brings on your own boss, who's been very actively campaign used to play a low profile and previous elections no longer. and he's given a lot of money to the trump campaign effort. how do you think a big money is impacts in discount? hi. as well, it's, it's hard to say is your, is your explanatory a piece showed it's not always. the person who spends the most inherits is actually out raising a trump bike quite a bit. but, you know,
9:26 pm
in those of swing states, they're trying to mobilize the try. the cas persuade a very small percentage of votes with billions of dollars being spent to just change a few votes on the ground, each of these states and not on their doors. that's where the money spent. it's almost impossible to tell how much each dollar is going to be worth it. but with the stakes so hard, united states between the 2 different parties. donors are just pouring money into the selection. like there's no tomorrow. you propose that additional campaign money be channels through policy organizations rather than direct me to at tons of it's just explained to us why? well, right now we have a situation where all this money is flowing to groups. we've never heard of groups like america for a better, better america. and we know what the parties are. so let's have the money flow through them, primarily right now they're restricted, but they're smart election lawyers who know how to get around the system. and
9:27 pm
millionaires billionaires, can you give money to these outside super packs? and that's not a good system. the parties more accountable, they, they could hold their own habits accountable. they have strategies to get the money in places where it's needed in voters don't like it. they could vote the party candidates out. it was regular roger, professor of political science and co director of the university of massachusetts. i'm 1st of all, i'd set you up today and stay with us. i'll be back very shortly to typing through the dates, things in the campaigns of doing to attract female folks. that's next. the
9:28 pm
somebody tells you that you scare arrivals, or they are either on drugs or lying because i have never, not been scared right. in the heart of texas, though rodeo greece are challenging, gender barriers, life and rodeo is exciting and is not forgives mistakes. in 45 minutes on d w, the

9:30 pm
sort of driving you with free information. these are you made for mine? it's just for days until americans choose the next president and women's issues are in the spotlight in the final phase of campaigning. it's the 1st presidential election since the historic supreme court ruling but struck down nationwide to portion rights become law. harry says donald trump doesn't respect women. polls are pointing to an unprecedented gen the gap. so how will americans women decide, i'm feel go in by then, and this is the day the
