i've been visible and welcome. the spanish government is said to deployed $10000.00 more soldiers and police to the areas west is by this week steadly flooding. emergency workers continue to search vehicles for bodies. holden, 200 people have now been confronted in the southeast and region of valencia, where a deluge had tuesday. dozens of missing the catastrophic scenes of going thousands of people from all over the country to help with the clean up and to distribute a. it's a standard residence. they've turned out in the thousands volunteers ready to assist in the off the mass of the deadliest flooding to hit spain in decades. valencia's or thirty's have taken control of coordination after initial support from volunteers, complicated rescue efforts for emergency services. as after enduring years of
4:02 pm
droughts and dry weather, the speed of the flooding to close the residents and officials by surprise. this footage from social media shows the 1st waves of flood waters tearing into the outskirts of valencia. in the aftermath, the scale of the damage quickly became apparent, was more than 200 people killed and many still missing. the task facing volunteers and rescue workers is daunting. but many here say it's the duty to help you with what the yes, how you offer photos of sitting at home and not being able to help. i finally decided to put on some suitable clothing and come to help you out. there are one and 2 groups at my university everywhere who go to the villages to clean describe, to remove, to help people. what are, what are the sort of dirty at this time is absolute and makes you believe in human
4:03 pm
beings, despite the circumstances. as rescue efforts, slowly turn to recovery, many a holding out hope that most of us could be found. but it was already the warning that the death toll is likely to rise the making these efforts if a more urgent master list stephen budget and why the government didn't send will help much earlier. a lot of people, particularly in valencia, are asking this very question. the issue seems to be that the responsibility for taking control of this lives with the regional government, the valencia and government, which hasn't as powers to, to requests the central government any help that it needs and then fight. sanchez said today, rather explicitly that please anything you need just please ask, but out of respect for the autonomous regions,
4:04 pm
he's done pretty good to impose to us. and it seems to me that for to many people that the responses very slow and we this happens on tuesday, we're only now talking as of yesterday of sending 10000 troops. and you can see that they evicted the people, you know, ordinary people have taken it into their own hands to try to do something about it . seeing that the, the official response has been, has been very slow. the, oh, sorry is there is no fear. sorry. no, continue what, what were you going to say? oh, i mean, no, no, let's be accused of making political capital out of a tragedy like this. but it does seem that there is, i've seen some political play going on because of the government. this the national government as the socialist party and the regional government has a coalition of the conservative peoples bounty and the far right folks policy. and unfortunately, it seems that there is
4:05 pm
a political under current to this. it also seems that there are thousands that either there isn't a proper protocol in, in place for this sort of disaster or it hasn't been properly implemented. but that's strange. you're saying that considering this sort of way the hits every year, not to the extreme that at this time. but surely the state at least is used to this sort of thing happening as well. yes. so i think this is what everyone's saying. i mean, this is, this is exceptional but, but, you know, it's how is it, how it does happen every year or something on this, not, although not on the scale. and so that'd be the thing, you know, we're still in, you know, the period of morning and obviously you know, the urgent task. but i think there are a lot of questions to be asked about whether the protocol is good enough or whether the government simply doesn't implemented. we do know that they didn't send out no, no till 12 hours after the match office had issued
4:06 pm
a regular load by which time the sideboards as low as you know, at least to meet the deep in many parts of valencia. so looking ahead, what happens next time? something like this happens? i mean, is the government going to be any better prepared? um, well obviously one would hope so. um i think the physical or the implementation of whatever protocol exist obviously needs to be examined. i think people would now need to think more carefully when there isn't a lot like this about what they do, for example, of parking their cause on higher ground. and so much of the damage that has been cleared up, i was just mashed up cause hundreds, possibly thousands of them. but beyond that, i mean we're, we're looking as we're seeing all over the world, very extreme weather events are becoming quite common. and we may well see this
4:07 pm
again, and i think this certainly needs to be a major read. think about you can't do much about the weather until we solve climate change, but certainly about how we respond to these events. so as the imagine, great talking to you again and getting your take on it says there in spite for you, when a teams have resumed the polio vaccination campaign in northern garza, it was due by olds by is by the compartments, mass displacement and the lack of access to the children who needed the vaccinations began on september 1st. um, so the world health organization confronted baby was possibly paralyzed by polio, is the 1st case there in 25 years. but you pay the corner of the world health organization is in gaza. i asked him about the difficulties he's the organization faced and resuming the campaign. yeah, we are in the middle of the 2nd drop off of the campaign and today we started in
4:08 pm
northern gaza. let me explain again to overall target must to reason 591000 children under 10 years of age. we also want to go administered by to me, the age of bushy immunity for the children from 2 till 10 years of age as well. the campaign, the sol gotta serve them in central zone up till now must be a success. i mean like a big corporation over 90 percent. however, today we start in the north and that is much more complex. i will explain why. in the north we unfortunately have a compromised campaign. the target to the north is one of 19000 children, 2 weeks for the polio vaccine. and is this going to mice for the following week? in the 1st ross, the show call area very a specific you and it turns on what it looks larger than it is today. today this you is there an area where?
4:09 pm
well the yeah, where were you haven't started you. it is very, very specific. so uh, is basically gonna see the north sky is not included as well. and then we have the sage from the start, we will be missing children, the cause of death. no. over the last couple of weeks, we have all the news and we estimates at approximately a 100000 people have left the north gossip that'd be forcibly as actually just from the north to got a 60 sort of technical committee. the which is existing of them is your house w h show you something and why they've decided despite all the shelves just we, we still would start this campaign in the north. typical westdale and the last weekend before tuesdays presidential election,
4:10 pm
the top 2 candidates of criss crossing the country, primarily heating, swing states that are considered to place the cool. republican donald trump, and democrats. cala harris held julian rallies in wisconsin. the state voted democratic 2020, and republican in 2018 with the force and a key issue both times. this is the 1st presidential vote since the supreme court over turned the constitutional bryant to a portion of the us back in 2022. trump a point of judges which he in that decision. now, harris has made restoring women's reproductive freedoms a central part of her campaign. the don't use it as pope nancy davis says 2 daughters summer who is 3 in baby star who's just 5 months. so big a gap between them and she had planned by the pregnancy between the 2 girls turned into a nice in june 2022. she was a 10 weeks 1st and the teachers who was carrying was diagnosed with crania
4:11 pm
a fatal night. so i remember vividly standing in a cold hospital room here in baton rouge, louisiana. my doctor walked in and he said this is the worst case scenario. they normally die in utero. but if he or she makes 15 birth and he or she would die within minutes. so he recommended an abortion to alternately protect my health. however, due to louisiana's restrictive abortion laws, i was denied the carrier that i desperately need. then stephen public, was there a situation and got funding with the help of the bridge of the lines an organization which offers practical support for people who need an abortion. she traveled 1400 miles to clinic in manhattan, new york for the procedure. you know, having to leave your kids, leaving your family behind just to access the fundamental health care and going to a foreign place where i don't know anybody. um you know,
4:12 pm
like it was one of the scariest things of my life. and i was emotional higher times like on a claim at the clinic. she stablished the foundation in her own name to support others facing similar situations to relieve louisiana on the deep south and test for hi. here in the midwest, access to abortion has been sharply limited since the supreme court decision, but it's still possible people like this come outside this clinic and dates and wanting to persuade women to not pass football oceans actually right now the clinic even has security because of people protesting outside numbers. so what as the election comes, you'll see more and more people do in that talk to catherine romano's has been
4:13 pm
carrying out abortions here in ohio since 2013 analysis. many people coming from other states. i think that's the intention of a lot of these laws so that people will be confused that people will be scared and that there will be less abortions. we see patients from georgia, alabama, arkansas, texas crossing state lines to get health care is incredibly stigmatizing. an abortion is a lonely decision as it is. so i think people who might have told a friend or a family member, if they were staying at home for their care, maybe are less likely to do so if they're traveling because it feels like they're doing something wrong. yes. the oscar about the election kind as a hearing, right? i think it's not good news for anyone with the uterus or who anyone who
4:14 pm
enjoys bodily autonomy. if donald trump is elected, i think she's been really cagey about his own opinions, but i think the people around him are very clear that they want abortion to be an accessible. c you are more that's the attention to future maurice, nancy davis. good boards. when i when i think about my children going through the same thing, that id, or like my daughters going through the same thing that i do. it makes me angry. it makes me scary. i'm scared of what they looks like and it is very frustrating and there's one other reduce that i advocate very, very hard to prevent my children from going through it to prevent your kids from going through it a future generations to come from going through the same thing
