7:01 pm
break off is good to have you with is there has been more reaction from la scale over the us decision to allow ukraine to hit targets deep inside russian territory . the foreign ministry in moscow says the use of long range missiles by ukraine would mark a radical escalation of the conflict that could fundamentally alter the nature of the war. the white house had a longstanding policy of limiting destroy the distance of missiles that it had supplied. the key that policy now appears to have been reversed. the decision comes as you cream, prepares to mark a 1000 days of this war, saving you train, and the aftermath of a russian every the attack late on sunday, several people were killed and dozens of others injured after a missile strike on a residential building. the findings,
7:02 pm
the misery on ukrainians after almost 3 years of war. but it missed the nothing nights of fear and destruction most high for ukraine, from the us, presidents kilobyte and says key to now start using these us supplied longer range missiles to strike targets further when russia steam hit being used in south korea attack, adams have a range of around 300 kilometers. the cranium president sees them is key to you, cranes fight back against russia. and has been months, been edging che bite and to lift a band on using the weapons to help at the conflict. along pursuing your plan to strengthen ukraine is a victory planner. i presented it to our partners. yeah. one of its main points is to equip our army with long range capabilities. today, there was a great deal of discussion in the media about us receiving permission for these
7:03 pm
actions. but strikes are not made with words. these matters are not announced that the missiles will speak for themselves, simon said, but scoffing. while the white house is also yet to officially consider the details, the weapons may be used quickly, davis phones to the deployment of thousands of north korean troops to bushes coast region. an area where you crane some of the tree continues to launch a wheel trone attacks. as most go tries to retake territory. it last following ukraine summer incursion. it is showing here by the board is that the us decision making headlines in russia with the credit in warning that allowing ukraine to use us made weapons to strike far into the russian territory. would lead to a rise intentions or some of the should lawmakers have gone even further. with one of them may be able to tell the reuters news agency biden's administration is trying to escalate the situation to the maximum. they are seriously risking the
7:04 pm
stats of world war 3, which is notes in anybody's interest. but then ukraine, as the country passed democracy, 1000 days, the pool is late to show if you estimate that you support will be welcome to providing a timely base that had of another pretty quinta, as russia realm. so fits this thoughts? well, how risky would it be for ukraine to use these weapons destroyed deep into russian territory? i put the question to retired us army, lieutenant general, ben hodges, the former commander of the us army in your the way, of course, the, even though the by the ministration is finally agreed to allowing ukraine to use these, they still have restrictions. they have restricted it to the course rich had area. i'm sure of ukrainians would love to be able to go after russian air fields and other places from which the russians are launching these endless attacks against
7:05 pm
innocent ukrainian civilians and that ukrainian power grid. but at least if they are restricted to use in the vicinity of the course rich here, they can still disrupt russian and north korean preparations for their counter attack against the ukrainians. and course this, by the way, we'll also send the message to you on yeah, that if you want to send troops over here to help russia, they're going to start seeing the numbers of casualties amongst north korean troops . the russians have been experiencing. so it has been hard, you're speaking with this earlier. we remember, well, $1000.00 days ago, as russia watched what it called a special military operation, the fall of t seemed inevitable. but that has not happened. there cost has been very high, hundreds of thousands of military and civilians have been killed in this war. millions of ukrainians have been upgraded from their homes. we have more now on the told that the war has taken and when it's over, what it will cost to reveal
7:06 pm
a $1000000.00 casualties. that's the total of dead and wounded. since russia invaded ukraine a 1000 days ago, according to various western sources, most of the dead and wounded are soldiers, but a significant number. our civilians of the military casualties us officials say about 300000 ukranian soldiers have been killed or wounded since the conflict began . they estimate more than 600000 russian casualties in the same time as for civilians. at the end of july, the united nations said that over $11000.00 ukranian civilians had died and nearly $24000.00 were wounded and cautioned that those official accounts were likely lower than the real total. in terms of military equipment, russia has lost thousands of tanks. estimate start at $3000.00 while ramping up production to replace those losses. ukraine has burned through billions of dollars of tanks and armored vehicles supplied by the west. but there are no hard figures
7:07 pm
available when it comes to infrastructure, the international energy agency. you said earlier this year that ukraine can only generate one 3rd of the electricity it did before the war. and this last hundreds of thousands of buildings, including homes, were sending more than 6000000 refugees across its borders. with more than $3000000.00 people still internally displaced estimates of the cost to rebuild all this very, the most recent world bank estimate said nearly $500000000000.00. a price tag that's gone up since then and continues to go up each day. the war goes on. well, i'm joined now by j. glen a specialist in eastern europe, which includes the russians war in ukraine with kings college london. she joins us tonight from har. keith, in eastern ukraine, is good to have you with us. so tuesday, marx officially a 1000 days since the full scale invasion began to, you're in par, keep
7:08 pm
a city that has been under constant attack. what would you say? what has this war done to ukraine? are actually hawkins on the right now, i believe us and say i read a lot of just just went off a few minutes ago. did changes as being and all this and in some ways i think is there anybody that can't really grinding and it changes the amount of families who no longer have a dog or a husband or the husband just come back? not quite, you know, the same man that went to she destruction the troll, the her, you know, routine, you know, down your circle showing moving for your local shopping area or, and seeing the, you know, houses the buildings and destroy increase on like, like here in hawkins it takes mental, this emotional and psychological told that he can come society and, and quite right. be so much more analysis is focused on, on the ministry, but um, i see, oh, here it is. you know, of course a society,
7:09 pm
this is really strong. it's incredibly resilient. but this is maybe for years and so what do you hear on the streets there and heart cube to people? did they talk about victory in this war? and what would victory look like to those people? i mean, what are we talking about? regaining all of the territory including crimea. so i think this was, this would be the messiah really about terror tree. i think that when you trainings that they want the territory of detection back mean, of course, that's the internationally legally recognized right. but it's the best definition of it to me that i've ever heard this comes from general. now i'm positive solution, which is we have to win to such an extent that the russians don't come back. and i think a lot of people certainly out here in the east, the more important thing is, is that part is how do you, genuine me achieve
7:10 pm
a real piece. not just noticing the account on the very, to the rush, i can find re all installed again late. and i think that's what people see as low as that. if he gives territory a, the, an ocean view, it has to be more than don't boss and crimea, or the dana and the territories and crimea, because he started the full scale invasion, often having default to control these territories. so it's not clear why given him what territory would necessarily say to his imperial appetite. is there the acceptance that a peaceful and to this war will have to include some territorial loss? i mean, do you hear people saying that that's, that's a given in their opinion. yes. you lots of people in the east. i think you've loved the i know do not especially, and that's not what they're worried about. they just want that to be an end to become some bullying and the last killings but no, but not to then see themselves occupies because i think as we know they're going to
7:11 pm
notified territories. but that isn't an end. the kidding, it is just meant ukrainians. being able to fight back against the kidding. are they getting renewed hope by the decision that's come from the us presidents giving the green lights to ukraine to use those us ballistic missiles deeper inside russia. as i tell you really ties, would probably be a bit of an overstatement. i think there's a frustration that they, when the this allows these allowances when permissions when to provided. so you know, when negative actually change things. you know, the really long drawn out process is providing the permissions plus, you know, these huge announcements before and do, do some all undermine the deterrent effect. and of course, there are numerous restrictions including that they need to be made me focus on the areas especially cause quick north korean saunders and locations. so again, it feels like the strip seating, and i think, i think although you premium is
7:12 pm
a hobby, because right now it's, it's very difficult on the front line and every no helps. it does feel rather more likely to and then all sadly, jade. we believe we appreciate you taking the time to talk with us and we um, admire you keeping your composure with the air, sirens, and sounding outside your in a war zone. thank you. it's the shifting human strategy is also an issue at the g. 20 summit in brazil, the us will allow you create a huge, long range missiles to strike into russian territory as we just heard. other western countries such as france and the u. k. could follow, but germany's transfer or shoulds maintains his stance not to give you crane those kinds of weapons. he made that clear during a press conference in rio de janeiro and stuff on the website and the family convent, forgot that many citizens in germany are concerned about security and peace in
7:13 pm
europe. this of course, and that is why it's important that we do is invite to saying that you're quite, you know, the stuff that means approaching ukraine and speaking clearly here at the conference and you like this. also because we've got to russia. that's to be all at the same time. we must always backs prudently and i can not domains the case. chavez, the law, as far as my own approach is concerned, i've explained very clearly why i don't consider the delivery of cruise missiles on the on taurus is the very, to choose germany. to be the right thing to do. that can only be used when this needs to be said, and if you also feel responsible for the targeting, not something i kind of do not want to be responsible for the offices. sorry they want to do now to our chief political editor, mckayla. good afternoon, she is travelling with the german chancellor. she is in rio de janeiro at the g 20 summit. i wanted to ask you in germany has followed the us in this war in questions about sending weapons particularly missiles. i'm wondering the german chancellor.
7:14 pm
he knows that in 2 months time donald trump will be in the white house. donald trump will not be giving the green light to ukraine to use any weapons. is this he seeing that there is not a us example to follow here? well, it said it this way. he also knows that in 3 months time there are snap elections here in germany. and one of the key principles he established throughout is his brand. he's trying to frame it as a political brand, a level headed nest, that he won't take decisions concerning ukraine lightly, and we saw in the past. it's true, for instance, over the question on whether to provide german times. it became conditional that to biden 1st provide americans abrams time. so the question marks of how much sense that makes in the bass of field for germany to then also provide its own types and much larger numbers. and what i've sold wouldn't really give us a comment, although we asked twice on how he sees to biden's decision that fits firmed up the
7:15 pm
way it's being reported. and he said that this was a fundamental principle that he stuck to, that didn't want to provoke an escalation at, and t one simply throw that overboard. but all of this has to be clearly seen within that context of him. only really guessing positive regimes in the polls when he's reluctant to send those, the orange missiles to ukraine. and that's something he to the also doesn't want to endanger domestic sees. so yes, so he's got one i of course, on his domestic audience. what about the, on the international scene there, i assume that everyone is talking about what is going to happen in january. the return of donald trump, to the white house. and are, are they assuming with that, we will possibly least be seeing the end of the war in ukraine? there is a growing expectation that this bolt will end. it has to end as put it this way.
7:16 pm
here at the z, 20 and rio, you have full face of the world economy. almost 2 thirds of the world population represented by the leaders and ukraine, isn't officially on the agenda as such. supposed to be. the lensky wasn't invited this time around to join the debate. the focus is clearly on something else. it's on poverty, pricing, poverty, fighting hunger. that's something new. the silver of brazil's present put at the very center of this g 20 gathering. and there's a growing sense that this is a conflict, that is how it creates is enough, have up for what's labeled the global south, and it's simply needs to end. and what we're seeing right now is gains and losses in the bass of fields that will form that baseline for negotiations that everybody expects. donald trump to force at once he comes into office on the 28th of january . and because before we run out of time, do you get the sense there that we are seeing this multi polar world order that we
7:17 pm
hear so much about of, but it may be a diminished role for the united states under donald trump. if it is all of that coming to the for their at the g 20 absolutely. it's very clear that china plays a huge role is um, realtors and arrows for the billboards. the chinese brazilian, the corporation. and those countries have reached that threshold to become global pay is also industrially. but also in high tech india, showing us brazil, they are a lot more self confident and they have their own interest that's on necessarily the interest of the west. and that is katie, coming to the full frontier. so that means a lot more work for the europeans and most uncertain time. so them as well. our chief political editor here at the g 20 summit in rio de janeiro of mckayla, as always. thank you. all right, let's take a look now,
7:18 pm
some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world and 10 people have been killed in more than 40 wounded in a russian strike on ukraine's. lexi port of odessa, corinthian, and president ultimate zalinski said a ballistic missile hit a residential neighborhood damaging and apartment blocks and the university building, national police, a 7 officers, a medic and 2 civilians, dog a 60 day state of emergency has been declared in ecuador due to ongoing droughts made worst by forest fires, some 10000 hector's of forest been raised by the fires. ecuador relies heavily on hydro, electric power, and critically low water levels have led to the rationing of electricity. nigeria has launched em parks vaccinations with shots to health workers in the capital of boucher africa's most populous nation, received the $10000.00 doses of the vaccine in august after the world health organization declared at a global public health emergency. there have been 94 confirmed cases in nigeria
7:19 pm
this year with no debts. well, ministers at the you in climate conference in buck to either by john and have been told to cut the theatrics and to get down to business says frustration grows about the slow progress being made. negotiators at cop 29 are struggling to come to an agreement over how much financing industrialized nation should provide to developing countries to help them cope with the impact of global warming. the climate change is not just affecting environment around the world. it can also be a global health issue as well. so i mean temperatures in increasing rainfall promote the spread of dangerous diseases. we have this report now from bangladesh on how big the fever is becoming more common due to climate change. doctors were expecting patients, but this year's been gay outbreak conduct bangladesh has overwhelmed to the water.
7:20 pm
in the past cases of dang, they only rose during the season, but now they were doing a patient for the around. how was that the season is more intense? we're under lots of pressure here, i think is the virus, the spreads for mosquitoes to people symptoms and usually miles between severe cases that can be fatal. lemme ski turn numbers once dwindled in cooler months. heavier rain and warm a temperature is due in part to global warming costs by bonding fossil fuels, providing the conditions for them to survive. and it's not just in asia spring insecticides in europe to kill us, be invasive asian tiger mosquito, which transmits 10 k and other viruses like chicken going you and seeka has become more necessary as they move north fountain 8 to european union countries in 2013 just over a decade later, the species is fully established in 13, including france, germany, austria, and hungry, and has been introduced in
7:21 pm
a saw the 6 in 2023. that would then get outbreaks in spain from some instantly changing rains happens and what conditions in the united states are also leading to follow the spread of disease from some species of take some of the key terms people would be more exposed health systems. we have to cope with an increased burden of disease associated with this pathogen spreading. i mean, particularly, or we're going to seeing, you know, cations starting to suffer from the impacts of infectious disease transmission indications that were previously considered relatively safe. extreme weather events, lessons by rising temperatures are also taking a toll on human health. severe drought in some regions has decimated, crop, pompous leading to under nutrition. flooding can lead to contamination of water sources causing outbreaks of illnesses, link, diarrhea. the world health organization estimates that will be another $250000.00
7:22 pm
deaths per year between 20302050 from health conditions linked to climate change. so what we need to do is quickly adapt to the high temperatures that were already seen. and we know that now we've continued to rise in every company, but also to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions without action say x, but seems like this and unlikely to become more common across the globe. rob butler is director for environment and health at the world help organizations speaking to me from bach, who he told me how negotiations a cop 29 are looking at the health impacts of climate change as well. thanks invites me. indeed, it's very promising. actually this very government's a place tell us at the center of the discussions. indeed today is the health day a call in there by the previous call. we also have a dedicated today to house because a aspects of house are impacted by climate change. not just those that you saw in
7:23 pm
the report that was just bro cost. yeah. i'm actually todd your vascular diseases, musky tub of diseases you saw in the video. also, kansas linked with that collection mount nutrition from disrupted food systems as a huge learning mental health process. i think in the european region where we're seeing this most of q the and that's the region which ice of the w. h of regional office based in copenhagen. we see this most acutely is on a heat house. just in the last year, we've seen a 175000 das from heat in your to be the crisis in your temperatures. our pricing uh, doubled the global price. so this is very alarming and something the countries have to prepare for, of course. yeah, we hear those reports all the time, how europe is eating up faster than the rest of the planet. how key in countries in
7:24 pm
vulnerable regions, how can they adapt to climate driven health threats and health challenges as well? let's take less time sheets as an example. how heat health application plans. many countries don't have these plans in place. those countries that have each health action plans in place that under finance, many of those countries have not tested those heat health action funds. because of course, when you have a heat, but when you have an extreme weather event, it's loving included. it puts an incredible button on your house system, and it requires such resilience not only in the house system, but the community that those we, we test on the plans emergency plans, pandemic plants and so forth. but we, we seem to be a little behind the times on how we test our. yeah, he's health action plans, not preparedness for climate induced and extreme weather events and won't answer.
7:25 pm
it could be more air conditioning here in europe. but, you know, as well as i do that, a lot of people think that that in itself would present the health risk. so it's almost like the solution could just compound the problem. absolutely, let me go. we've got got a cost company machine. see, it's a spouse, simple, it's great for product rate house, and it's great for every living being on the planet. so product tree house in the sense that of costs for greenhouse gases, we're going to see a reduction in climate change in a slowing down and the climate change. but if we can get clean high, uh, particularly to people in vulnerable situations, the most marginalized, we have 569000 premier jo desk in europe from briefing for quality at every year. that is remarkable. and that is something we can change if we choose
7:26 pm
to mitigate and do something about pano change and cut those emissions, which is why ultimately we're here in bathroom before we we're not talking, i want to ask you about the money is global climate finance isn't meeting the scale of health risks that are posed by climate change. as i said, great question, look, always thing called last year ends by remember talking about billions needed in terms of investments. now that talking trillions is interesting of the g 20 a meeting today. those 20 countries contribute to 80 percent of global emissions. so it is a political choice. they can make the choice, they can invest, they have the money, the budget. but clearly we're not seeing the investment we need and that will be an exponential increase over the years if we continue on this cause for all butler director of health at the w. h of joining us tonight from fucker in either by john rob. we appreciate your time tonight. thank you. so you're watching the w news.
7:27 pm
7:28 pm
