i would print certainly the splined virtual entire truth wins if it's only torture it's not a good how would international policy floods achieve every green lorry for children in tow who. desperately trying to cool down the stricken fukushima nuclear reactors dumping a sea of water from the air and piling g.'s water down and trucks prevents total meltdown. maybe fifty is remaining to tackle the on stable our blog all eyes turn to the u.n. nuclear powers and wondering why it's taking them so long to react it's comic danger unfolding in japan. the u.s. says it's along by the mounting problems of fukushima but the troubles may have started out the drawing board of the american behind the politicians desiring.

libyan opposition fighters are calling for an end to the month long violence while russia was pushing for a cease fire resolution to put in place the united nations all with it doesn't seem quite freely just yet to make any decisions. very warm welcome to you this is awesome live from moscow i'm alison but japan is struggling to regain control over the overheated reactors out of the sheema nuclear plant after a series of blasts and as the government's most senior spokesman said cooling reactor number three is the el the top priority because it's posing the biggest danger military helicopters the current dropping seawater and stricken reactors in the latest visit to a nuclear meltdown while other aircraft are monitoring the amount of radiation at levels get too high. five the aircrews transfer was accounted for were deployed to

try and get the temperature of the troubled reactors to drop. the ballot have been for the quake hit that high and are more and more people are fleeing the area terrified by the threat. the sheer force of the tsunami was hard to comprehend until i saw base vehicles and houses at impossible angles it was as if the ground surface had been ripped off. this woman told us they've never experienced such a powerful earthquake before and she feared for her life we weren't allowed out of the car at the coast the police were on high alert and suddenly there was panic. of a five metre high wall of water heading our way go go go this man shouted at us we sped inland as fast as possible chased by others the last wave took just nine minutes after the earthquake to reach eighty kilometers inland we didn't have

a long this was a false alarm but those already on the knees of bracing themselves for more of the relief center in sendai the newly homeless a given blankets and a cardboard sheet all nineteen floors of this building and fill with everyone from infants to the elderly the night i spent it was bitterly cold and virtually sleepless some could be here for weeks everyone had a story to tell about their moment of terror. first an earthquake then the tsunami and now radiation roadblocks around fukushima appeared as early as saturday since then the fears they instead leave ill being just like the chiefs they took an hour to get past this jam of cars for wanting to fill up fearing fuel shortages they may not be visible his theory. for the

anxieties prompted essential stockpiling as the threat escalates more and more are leaving i was traveling with his crew from new zealand when we heard they had been a full fledged splosion the plant quickly changed to an exit strategy and niigata i met this young family from sendai and baby boy i was just five days old when the earthquake struck. the only thing i thought of when and how burned was i have to save my baby how do you feel about the radiation i scared. that's why i have left and i am scared for my baby and i don't want him to get ill it can have a very negative impact on him on a train to tokyo it was more of the same this tour is to change his flight out to the earliest of able to get. this. when it comes to radiation and people i've met here aren't sure the government's telling the full story and most aren't willing to wait around to find out why

bennett artsy. or conditions out there time exciting increasingly difficult for black is to stabilize the reactors an idiot by. the radiation exposure so high and say i don't think human beings kilo can get into the areas that need to be accessed in order to put the fire. is out there also to get water into locations where the bit heat is the highest if there's any likely thing that's happened so far as the winners were mainly blown out to see if the wind turns to the to the sell by expect he will see radiation in tokyo i don't believe it will be enough to evacuate tokyo but i think it would be prudent to take the course and. try to stay out and stay out of the home the only asiatic reassurance there already. we beginning to reroute airlines because they're afraid

of the radiation landing on the airplane and you know of a plane from. moscow for instance who will fly through that plume so it's it will definitely begin to affect asiatic travel i don't think the government is lying i do think the government is not telling them everything it knows you know i study chernobyl and i was an expert witness on three mile island and the government is always behind the eight ball on these things they are deliberately trying to downplay the amount of radiation being released you know we saw it in the gulf of mexico two of the oil spill they are under estimated the amount of oil that seems to be the way bureaucracies were the international atomic energy commission estimated five percent of the core had failed in fact seventy percent so these guys have come in with low ball estimates for quite a few days now. and he's all forces. in with an unprecedented crisis but

insist. on the. following developments. the latest information that we're getting from the japanese government is that there were attempts being made it to cool down reactor number four helicopters did fly over the reactor this morning did see water on them unfortunately they were only able to make four of such flyovers and the experts say around one hundred are needed in order to have any cooling effect whatsoever in the catastrophe of the scale also there have been reports says off this morning that temperatures in the fifth in the sixth reactor the only remaining fully intact reactors at fukushima temperatures there have also got up there at about sixty degrees celsius they should be about twenty five u.s. authorities going to start charter planes for those of their nationals willing to get out of the country so those so that charter planes will be able to help her in doing so earlier on this thursday wanted to go as energy officials did say that he

considers that he considers fukushima to be in a state of meltdown the japanese authorities were quick to dispel that information saying that they were just not fast enough in providing all of the accurate and necessary information to their american counterparts the i.a.e.a. an organization which should be keeping tabs on the use of nuclear power in the world and that should be keeping a close eye on plans to such as fukushima well they were nowhere to be found until just very recently and some are already asking questions what exactly is i.a.e.a. doing in these circumstances i missed reports that radiation levels in the japanese capital could be up to eleven times the norm people scramble to get away from the invisible killer here in tokyo streets do seem to be less busy the usual at the epicenter of japan's nuclear disaster fifty people remain struggling to keep the reactors are different role between the international atomic energy agency the

exponents of the peaceful use of nuclear power you hear in japan and writing for g.'s after the first. at the nuclear plant the i.a.e.a. as well as a promoter of nuclear power whose job is not to necessarily be able to come to the rescue of failed attempts at maintaining quality design and and protecting the public from natural disaster such as we're dealing with here although they'll sell that message when the twin approved in everyone the proof is in the pudding you can clearly see that the i.a.e.a. has absolutely no ability to deal with this problem any more than the japanese government the very people who should be keeping tabs on the situation seem to have their little direct involvement in it and act until now and the only source of information was the japanese government for years the organization has been busy with their mission statement to maintain nuclear energy for peaceful means in one thousand five and made increase inspections of iranian facilities the organization and its then chairman mohamed el baradei i was awarded

a nobel peace prize but by the looks of it concerns over a possible un sanctioned uses of nuclear energy by countries like iran seem to have overshadowed the clear and present dangers of already existing nuclear power plants in countries like japan and now if they remain workers who have to battle fire smoke and radiation at what remains of the fukushima power plant there's only fifty people allowed in the plant of the moms and they work in fifteen minutes shifts which is which is very little and they have to work very many things by hand because remote control installations have gone down the main operating room is is not usable because of the radiation levels they're working under extremely difficult circumstances to try to prevent the worst from the worst with all six reactors showing signs of instability only fifty people remain face to face with a problem putting their lives at risk while behind my already seemed open for to

watch on from a safe distance. ok the latest updates from the naked eye falling off twitter sat after the warnings the blackouts in the capital to the promises of a magazine and i mean is covering life that is right now in japan all her updates and they've added to that underscore. this doesn't give thanks risking their lives. who. don't need campaign in washington explains what they face. certainly as their lives are immediately at stake. and clearly they have sacrificed any kind of long life by being there. actually there is concern for people who come in

contact with after coming out of this. catastrophe essentially for three units or. clearly two of the containment systems are damaged and clearly unit number four it has lost all water cooling and clearly we have a full court meltdown maybe on its way without any containment whatsoever and the concern is that if they do not restore power to the facility that all six reactors could become fully engaged in a military really becomes that in a matter of which way the wind blows and it will carry tremendous amounts of deadly radiation sickening radiation and the consequences are really. i can't really comprehend what it could mean not only in the immediate pathway but in the cloud begins to globally move. the number of those killed in the design of

the house top five thousand but the desperate search continues for the many thousands who are still missing recovery teams are battling through immense piles of rubble in northern japan countries from rome the world including russia continue to send rescue teams in congo to japan authorities say the task of restoring those communities to anything approaching normal is likely to take many years and cost billions of dollars for those who survive the will to get this far from over with radiation they'll threatening to impose a legacy of severe health implications despite all efforts japan remains on the verge of nuclear disaster professor even from tel aviv university for the current situation hasn't faded his fears. the worst scenario because i predicted. all react because with them aging the. the containment of the sort of the breaking

of the going to continue to break down and the question is who was prepared for it to get competent purposely or close to these highly radioactive isotopes especially warrior because it would present a source told you know if you would of measly acros or something be if there's an old printer a number of things you cannot compare him to for you. which is really poisonous in confirmation by people you know he's a really difficult time for on the other hand it is normal for you can be easily hacked those that can be. used to come from a nation into gear. over why do. you know india is reportedly rethinking the united states' involvement in its nuclear energy program that's a result of the disaster in japan america's general electric bill reacted and it's now bidding to build plants in india history to report from. the cresting the

manufacturers put in print and it's designed for. right now a lot of people are wondering who they can point the finger at whether it's general electric who actually designed these nuclear reactors or the operator which in this case is tepco tokyo electric power company and actually when you take a deeper look into japanese law general electric will actually not be liable for any of the accidental damage that's happened at these nuclear reactors which could save them potentially tens or hundreds of billions of dollars so they're probably breathing a little bit of a sigh of relief right now actually topcoat with the operator of the nuclear reactors would be responsible for those liability costs now many people are saying that in fact there were some design flaws general electric is very keen on tapping into the one hundred fifty billion dollar nuclear energy business here in india india is one example of many countries who are looking to expand their nuclear

power market however obviously a lot of questions are being raised here in india across asia most nuclear power plant plant construction has been halted actually when president obama made his asia trip back in november jeffrey immelt the chairman of she came with him and president obama was hoping to ease up on liability laws that would make american companies responsible as an accident like what happened in japan was to happen here in india however that isn't the case as of right now indian law would hold an american company like g.e. liable if an accident like that was to happen here and because of that many people wonder whether or not. in fact continue to invest so much money and they seem like a logical partner since india wants to boost its atomic energy by thirteen times by twenty thirty so the partnership seems to be

a logical one yet you know people across the world as i said before are starting to question whether or not they want to work with an american company on a project like this. now the praise for the situation deteriorates. but it's also going to be simply now not stopping the nuclear energy from north. imitation. we know it's a level six fukushima heading to level seven which was the chernobyl and what's going on here is we've general electric even after the comcast merger still has a significant a stake in n b c we see the nuclear lobby through the nuclear energy institute and all their other page. putting a full court press on every possible media outlet in addition to members of congress to make sure that nothing happens to affect the growth of nuclear power

plants in this country and president obama i would add not only has jeffrey immelt as jobs and competitiveness of adviser on our white house panel buddy he took a lot of money from exelon a chicago based nuclear power plant company so we have all kinds of conflicts of interest basically what ed said many decades ago get the corporate board room out of the news room now we see the effects this. in which neighbors japan is on higher. atomic although emergency officials maintain i think danger still taking theories precautions are things that your report. the concentration of radiation in russia's car is normal that's according to russia's main why the agency now there is no immediate rights to possibly russia first of all because of favorable weather conditions

a potential radioactive cloud current me would go straight out into the pacific ocean away from russia that is if the wind doesn't change direction after radiation levels spiked at daiichi nuclear at seventeen our weather stations across washes far east have been constantly carrying out checks that we're now in the studio but is russia's largest poorest city on the pacific ocean and this city is only part hundred seventy miles away from my local residents are taking no chances on top of official records are also mourning tory radiation levels on the road the current situation promise me to go ahead and take their safety in their own hands that's why i'm going to discount to watch he or done has been sold out at pharmacies across the city obligate us stock and the cheapest guy to congress costs as much as seven hundred dollars but especially say it's not enough to just because that's

a device he also needs to be taught how to use it properly. he's an x. rays it also has an additional radiation detector the biggest problem in japan like no is the radiation dose in the air with this to boise can detect a level of radiation when you come from the sea i'm clean right now. we have also managed to get our hands on a professional alex shaunie geiger counter. it is the one which for example rushes a much and says ministry equips is cars and stations with out as a bully in the studio with. radiation levels stand between twelve to thirteen microns. brauer wigan within allows not soon for this area. standing at some thirty five or so not yet critical but still the reading is higher than that on the island for example. since the main cause serious health risks are in

the vicinity for palm frond are beyond chemical pathology specialist talk around. his inference. risk is a consideration so. that there's a reason he's actually. distanced from it front so for those i would have. to our vacations as many months in many years later as they can get up and say special ops like a cancer and also he came here so i think this will even though he should be the baseline for both those patient. populations and the radiation and then we start rolling them up so that in case of they have to meet and get it done uses and the treatment. or do you have to ask facebook page to share your thoughts on the tragedy in japan and the battle to contain its nuclear crisis too with what you think of developments such as the power lines being brought online helping it to

allow a more stable water supply we can also watch the latest video analysis on what's happening right now in japan as well as all our other top stories just this is the facebook search box. all the disasters events in japan are sending shock waves through the country's economy as well threatening the stability the currency they get has already saw to its highest level against the u.s. dollar since the end of the second world war but is now forming back i'm not here want to play the strong again on how japanese insurance companies have responded to the tragedy analysts expect ministers to give japan the go ahead to intervene in currency markets to steady the yen to grand central bank the already injected two hundred eighty four billion dollars in order to stay like the country's financial markets however one of russia's leading a comment as they leave the japanese economy is strong enough to hold up. and general germany's economy is pretty girls and what we're talking about is not

because so the construction which will use in basic terms so it's a physical cause it's not a matter of the call economy melting down or the financial system. being considered a very negative supply shortage i think one could compare it to the drop in the summer of two thousand and ten in russia i think we should be reasonably sure of the musical in music hall and you know who you mean. to libya now where opposition supporters the march through the rebel held city of benghazi with the courts and the country's wrong violence russia has been pushing for a cease fire resolution through the u.n. security council which is so far failed to make any decision including the imposition of the no fly zone is in jeopardy. the u.n. security council has a really full two days in debating the question of what to do over libya and the last word we have from diplomats is that we must not expect

a decision before today thursday whether in fact that decision comes through it still remains to be seen the sticking point of course is the whole question of and no fly zone here the bush and france are still pushing heavily for it the latest word from the french is that some of the countries that are in the arab league and that gave the enlarged to a no fly zone of it had indicated that they would be part of the mission and part of the assistance to put that in place because on the other side you do have countries such as russia and germany that of them and he opposed to it the other part of the discussion that the u.n. security council is focusing on is the question of sanctions in here the it does seem to be more consensus in the international community stricter sanctions on the gadhafi regime and his family and his high level associates sanctions that will see a freeze on their assets and downs in their travel reasons and then dance is solved is changing and there was a massive demonstration on wednesday with people took to the streets calling for an end to the violence and that violence continues on the run down the road some one

hundred fifty kilometers away in the town of agita and the death is warplanes his tanks we've had reports of a k forty seven zero heavy shelling have continued and and look city continued today thursday here in tripoli though the mood is very different when i speak to officials there banding about the weekend as a good line which they say could get through would have completely obliterated his opposition and that opposition is again appealing to the international community with many people in benghazi itself saying that the international community talks about its concern of collateral damage will they say that people in benghazi will be more than collateral damage if gadhafi has his way. along has been speaking to a who says dealing with the situation in libya is its own affair but one that's being inflamed by al qaida what will bring it to you next in the fallout of it his or her. he told us. that. we are dealing with something important to us from abroad i mean out qaeda terrorists leadership began to tell

the world about protests in libya about shooting almost thousands killed they sent their reports to the news agencies and all of a sudden we found out of the whole world was against libya but we have had no protests how could news agencies report such things the number of victims is one hundred fifty to two hundred so how could one speak about thousands how can the un security council and the whole world decide based on media reports and it's now difficult to change world opinion on perception of what's going on in situations believed to be in crisis desperately problematic as for last we consider this a libyan crisis a libyan disaster and a libyan problem. a recap now of the main stories in just a couple of. the
