7:03 am
ah, it looks as if a bomb has hit like world war. a state of emergency has been declared across western germany with people advise to stay home and avoid high water rescue workers found several people who had drowned in their own basements, and in the meantime, helicopters are trying to evacuate any survivors from rooftops or europe correspondent peter oliver's in the region for us. this is really here in hog in the reins over night that were forecasts didn't turn out to be that heavy. and we, we haven't seen any further rain falling on these already swollen rivers and lakes and already salt and ground. so far on friday, on thursday though, where i'm speaking to you from. so a 120 high watermark reached in just a few hours after was the rainfall came down and swept away large amounts of of
7:04 am
well everything that was by the sides of the rivers. i'm speaking to you now just in front of a bridge that was under construction at the time local to telling me that well, construction equipment that was all not bridge was swept away as if it was nothing the work of trying to shoot without construction up. and making sure that if there is any further swells in the river here, that no more damage be done. because i see the physical called the, the material costs that unfortunately, and tragically, the human cost of this natural disaster is still well beyond being counted. what we understand is a number of people are still counted as missing. in fact, in one area of the face of ryan on philosophy at the local authorities sweeping out that 1300 people were counted as missing as far as they're concerned. that may well be down to where all the hoping that's down to is the fact that the
7:05 am
telecommunications that work in a lot of areas aren't functioning properly. people are able to get in touch with one another. however, tragically, in that particular town of, via we did get news on thursday evening, the 9 bodies being found in a home for the stable people rescue had gone to the home to try and rescue those people that were in that facility. however, it's the feed and the ferocity at which was is rose, that is really cold. so many problems in court. so many people off guard as well as the fortunately the number of dead continue to rise in both the rhineland philosophy that until in the state of north run with folly, where i'm speaking to you from. the idea of the war is coming in so quickly was also repeated in the town of shows, which is just down me down the river from the sound of phyla people there. busy told us what it was like when that water solid rice. i haven't experienced that
7:06 am
before. what came here? it happens so fast. couldn't look as fast as the water came out. it was really bad . at 1st. we laughed at. it wouldn't be so bad. but then it got really bad, there was more and more and more water. then we were told that we had to leave the whole thing footage from the air of the scale of the destruction. you're looking at rivers that have 1st banks in flooded kilometers away from their usual trees. people's home well and truly floated away in the town of hoggard, where i'm talking to you from the authorities was saying last night. make sure you can, if you can, to sleep on the higher floors of the houses to remain there also not to drink the drinking water. because while the flood water from the river has overfilled into the towns was to supply me to cologne. not too far away in the same state, a number of houses were washed away overnight. several others also in a state of being partially washed away. others well the authorities doing their
7:07 am
best along. busy with locals to try and make sure that they can put anything they can in place to make sure that they are the next one to be washed away when it comes to rescuing people in the color region. rescue is having to use both is the only way to get downstream to do that. also in one area, a gas leak that can be turned off is also making things in credibly more dangerous, not just fill those in need of rescuing. but also for the rescue is you are having to go in to do that and look needed an incredibly dangerous job. the german army has also been drafted in it's been on the theme for well over 24 hours now is and trying to help coordinate those rescue efforts. both the damage is financially wise . that's obviously not the main concern at the moment, but down the line that will be running into the hundreds and hundreds of millions of euro. if not more than not, i think it almost certainly it will be more than that, but it's the human cost at the moment that we're still struggling to try and get
7:08 am
a real fix on just how high that may be. it is already incredibly high with a large number of people losing that lives in western germany also in belgium, of the areas affected by the floods as well in the netherlands and in front on the luxembourg as well. this is really a tragedy that crossed all of those borders to be keeping an eye on all of the updates that come out of this particular part of western journey throughout the any new information i'll bring it to south africa has seen its worst violence in decades amid writing and looting that, if a ruptured after the jailing of the ex president, at least 117 people have been confirmed dead in the middle of the riots in the city of durban, there was a dramatic incident involving a small child that was miraculously saved a warning you might find these images disturbing. as the flames engulfed her block of flats, a desperate mother threw her daughter to a crowd of bystanders on the street below. they were then seen cheering,
7:09 am
as the toddler was caught, safe and sound. the mother described to us how terrified she was in that moment. miller affairs doing what i can say. yeah. just so shocked cuz she always remind me of what i did to her leg when she was seeing the building. i'll say she was pointing though that's my mom. you drew me down. you to me. whatever news the flex spending, we only smell smoke from the 16th floor and the lady from the recession. she was going floors was telling us to come down. we read something, it was the 2nd floor we're not sure because outside of the plant. so when they were playing with people from the 3, those standing in the sleeve by mystery, they were trying to help us taking the lasers for us to go to the latest. so when i was there, there was the other speak later. i'll say if you can carry that baby for me, so i think the face down face, outpatient,

7:12 am
flour, some stuff that was stolen. you have you noticed on him? no, we've got a 2 pulse. and who lives here? somebody inside it's been inside. okay, let's go inside and see who's been doing the stealing. so we're just walking through people's homes here in alexandra township. it's often local people who are coming forward to the police and to community leaders and telling them that the neighbors have got stuff that they didn't have the day before. and that's how the police is getting to pulse as to who conducted the ransacking over the past few days. so he'll be entering someone's home who's been stealing stuff. so what is there? and there is a door and the turtles and the other stuff as you see there in the car, there goes and just wanted to take you taking a vote. this is a suspect. how do you know what stuff he was stolen and what stuff belongs to the family? in this case, the man who told us good to whatever is inherited is told to his friend a prodigy and, and some of the things have been taken away to be sold. i don't know where day he
7:13 am
hasn't told us yet. where are you taking him to the house? what happens to him now, why do i say here, the community members say the people of alexander they must come and stand up and make sure we are taking the door to door. we're taking that to the people the they have to come and claim that properties because now we don't have a pen more. we didn't have nice shops use. it was because peter, people just walk. what minutes are we getting something to come and fix up you 1000? whatever the chances are that it's one of the neighbors that reported the young man he has been covering his face and he doesn't want to talk to us. i'm looking to find a neighbor will talk to us. yes. a more goods that the police are taking with him that have been confiscated. so the police are loading what they've managed to take
7:14 am
from this house and among the stolen goods are a number of doors. a toilet system and a bottle of pain went out at the police headquarters way. they are unloading some of the stolen goods that they've managed to recover. how many places were you able to go to tonight and how much stuff were you able to recover? it was saying, hey, we'll cover a lot of stuff and then we go 7 places. and then i think to model, we go for the one who's giving you the information as to who the and where these related stuff is. the community off is that they're giving us the information on
7:15 am
this computer of alex because now they're thinking about what is the opinion and they see this is i'm here at the main police station in alexandria. the suspect has been full care and is being held in one of the cell a short time ago. there was no electricity in this area and the police are working with the light from a cell phone. it gives you a kind of idea of the circumstances and the challenges that face the police in south africa as they try to deal with the current state of violence policy a r t. alexandra doesn't only matter what vaccine you've had, but you should also consider where it was made, at least if you want to visit france, if you were given and you approved shop like astrazeneca, and it was produced in europe, you're good to go. but if you were a knock, elated with the identical drug made in india where it's known as covey shield, you'll be denied entry. that's left would be travelers confused and frustrated. i
7:16 am
think the risk shorts is clearly defined. the vaccine is absolutely identical. despite the facts, it was manufactured in india. the confusion is that we'll choose to travel, evidently, travel a lot with my work, and the problem is despite the chest certificate, the telephone application suggests the vaccine is off a certain type. obviously, the numbers suggest differently. we can not find any clear information on whether or not we can travel with if i sign up a port. busy or an add port to this day, i do not know whether i'll be allowed to leave the u. k. or when i get to my destination and get checked, will i be allowed to continue? my job? i, you, regulators have explained that koby shield is not on its list as astrazeneca has not provided enough data about the manufacturing process in india. however, even those who have had an m a approved shot can face difficulties once in france
7:17 am
where they still need a health pass to access certain public places. these include restaurants and shopping centers, as well as long distance buses and trains to get the pass. you need to be vaccinated and either have a negative pcr test or have recently recovered from coven system has led to st. protests in the country. and andy hill again says it adds an extra layer of complications that might just make a trip to france through costs. and for some years seems to be some confusion around what the telephone and also the certificate size in terms of the actual name that explain cold in the case versus the batch number. don't match the name in the batch number doesn't match what people are saying. so they saying she's not accepted bucks. unfair is the batch numbers match co shield and that's what it says on the certificate. this confusion and complication bear. i don't think the other thing is as well, but you know, that could be some significant costs. not so much the disappointment with my family
7:18 am
. i'm not going can get the last minute. non refundable tickets, etc, etc. you know, for the sake of a breakdown in communication it's, it's frankly moving across more news after a short break. the ah, to be with me. ah ah,
7:19 am
i lose your body literally can strengthen. it's like your brain become kind of a muscle with movement. you're not just breaking your why so you try. you are literally strengthening the connection. you're in fact, in certain areas, you're actually growing, assimilating the growth of brand new brain cell. ah, welcome back to the program. now europe is ditching fossil fuels, at least that's the intention under radical new e u plans. the block says it will stop the sale of petrol powered cars and go carbon neutral within the next decade. the overarching goal was and of course,
7:20 am
is to make europe the very 1st climate neutral continent in the world. and to build a new growth strategy to get there. but going green will come at a cost, a new tax on certain goods coming into the e. u will be used to support local firms to make the switch to cleaner energy. we discussed how realistic the blocks ambitions are with british with former british politician paul andrew novel. putting to face one percent of carbon emissions in 9 years is completely unrealistic. it's not going to work consist especially considering that they only got 24 percent of carbon emissions between 19912019 terrorists will inevitably have to be raised because it will make it more expensive full of economies outside the unions and polls you goats that will trigger a ton of war. and if you end up in a terrible say russia or china or the united states that negatively mean job losses
7:21 am
across the european union, it is dark green taxes always affect poor people. more than they affect rich people, they make poor people poor. so what you will see is you will see petrol prices go up. diesel prices go up, energy prices for consumers. so people who believe the ends have to choose between eating and heating. in other news, the kremlin has brushed off a new article by the british newspaper, the guardian, which claims donald trump's victory in the 2016 presidential election was quote, a plot by vladimir putin. r t senior corresponded more. i guess he has the details . let me sum up this astounding exclusive. so it appears to show what seems to represented is assess to be a suggestion that is understood to appear consistent with reports. i don't remember reading an article less sure of itself that this what the guardian seem to be
7:22 am
washing its hands of all legal responsibility as it published this. and for good reason. russia's 3 spite agencies were ordered to find practical ways to support trump. in a decree appearing to bear put in signature, naturally, we don't see the decree. of course we get from the guardian is to very strangely formatted, screenshots that read like a criminal critics daydream. they propose to prove everything that russia has been accused of for years. and then some on top, which is perhaps why putin spokesperson believes that the guardian may be trying to reverse declining readership fullness. and this is a complete fiction, as we say in russian complete nonsense. of course, this is a continuation of the low quality publications either in the newspapers trying to increase it popularity or it continues it's rampant rotherford because of course all that is not and cannot be true. it is in fact a lie. this is
7:23 am
a continuation of practicing totaled, immunization of russia and hoot in which the guardian sometimes likes to do or to the desperate attempt to attract and read it by publishing such prob stories. and let us entertain the notion that this document which is convenient, impossible to verify, may have a shred of truth. so the russians apparently decided to support trump before he had even one the republican primary to throw all the support behind him. brazenly in a showing that any fees and politician will tell you would be a stupid thing to do. why would they put eggs in one apparently crazy basket? there is also apparent confirmation that the kremlin possesses compromise or a potentially compromising material on the future president collected the document says, from trump's earlier, non official visit to russian federation territory. if only the f b,
7:24 am
i hired people as gifted investigation as you call the who co author this, see you who has more of a hate relationship with russia now has a reference to another debugging story that he pushed the steel doughty. remember the reports of trump, you are a nation parties in moscow, hotels convenient? how all the trump we can leaks collusion, soy. that was also a loo, causing exclusive on the guardian. i'm watching now as one journalist after the next president luke harding story. they have no idea if the documents are real. they know he's one of the west, smiles, dishonest, reckless reporters. they don't care the story health, their political agenda. that's all that matters. lou causing was once a correspondent in moscow who had a terrible time, see, he wrote a book about how much russia allegedly hated him about how russia secret agents who he perhaps confused with goose,
7:25 am
had nothing better to do than to sneak into his apartment weakly, to open includes the windows of the steel, the removed control from his tv, set the alarm clock to 4 o'clock in the morning. the lead his screen savers and the course desk kate in his toilet, without flushing. that is all in his book. lots of people do believe what they've eaten, the newspaper village when a journalist and the newspaper are simply lying to them. no new cutting has a long history of, of producing unreliable stories. he writes for a particular audience, he white nights, an empty russian audience and an anti chunk audience. so this man is a fantasy, not a journalist, both housing, i'm the guardian, have a long history of promoting forged documents. you know, big claim, individual independent experts have verified dis document, but they don't name these acts. who are these experts who say this is
7:26 am
a genuine document? it means not what his claims to be. i will conclude with a comment i read today a response to the guardian article. it reads, it is helpful whatever the guardian marks a story exclusive. it means the readers can exercise even more caution than usual. more details in your world news stories, you can always check out our website, r t dot com or follow us on twitter. i'll be back with more news in just about 30 minutes. so stay tuned. me the
