a few hours after was the rainfall came down and swept away large amounts of, of 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 locals are telling me that well, construction equipment that was all not bridge was swept away as if it was nothing . that's the, the physical cost to the, the material costs, but unfortunately, and tragically, the human cost of this natural disaster is still well. well beyond being counted, what we understand is a number of people are filled, 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. what may well be down to what we're all the hoping that's down to is the fact that the telecommunications that works in a lot of areas on functioning properly. people aren't able to get in touch with one another. however, tragically,
2:05 pm
in that particular talent of via that we did get news on thursday evening that 9 bodies had been found in a home for disabled people. it's the theme and the ferocity at which was his rows. that is really cause so many problems in court. so many people, false god, i haven't experienced that before. what came here? it happened so fast. we couldn't look as fast as the water came. it was really bad for us. 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 house 5 seen footage from the air of the scale of the destruction. you're looking at rivers that have 1st banks and flooded kilometers away from their usual foundry people's homes. well, and truly floated away in the town of hog, where i'm talking to you from the authorities was saying last night. make sure you can, if you can sleep on the higher floors of houses to remain there. also not to drink
2:06 pm
the drinking water because while the flood water from the river has over filled into the towns was to supply me to cologne. not too far away in the same state, a number of houses will wash way overnight. several others also in a state of being partially washed away when it comes to rescuing people in the cologne region, rescues having to use both as the only way to get down street 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 for those in need of rescuing. but also for the rescue is you having to go in to do that. look, you need is an incredibly dangerous job. the german army has also been drafted in on the scene for well over 24 hours now is trying to help coordinate those rescue efforts. both the damage is financially wise. that's obviously not the, the main concern at the moment,
2:07 pm
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 a real fix on just how high that may be be keeping an eye on all of the updates that come out of this particular part of western journey throughout the day. any new information, i'll bring it to you. these are all of the reporting that will, that the rules i've seen of devastation in belgium overnight is rivers. first bank to 22. fatalities have already been reported to thousands evacuated from their home . they bring from to send 40 rescue work under heavy helped us to help in the recovery effort and extreme weather is also hitting the netherlands authorities that have told thousands to evacuate their homes at risk of flooding. rivers have gone above the level seen in the last major floods in the early ninety's. the key most why has been closed with power cuts also being reported.
2:08 pm
now another news tonight, the families of passengers on the plane that disappeared from radars inside berry have breathed a huge sigh of relief. that after all 18 on board survived a crash landing. it was done off, gave more details to don quarter. well basically the plane in question is an and 28 . it's ukrainian manufactured jet, quite old, but still fit for service. it is a small to so it's no match to the boeing to add boxes that travelers are used to flying on. so it took off in siberia and 20 minutes 29 minutes into the flight. the air traffic control is the received and signal from its emergency beacon. this is essentially the same thing as sending and as so s please out them. so rescue as boarded a helicopter and began the search in the area where they were expecting to find the plane. so they supported it as it was lying their belly up, all rec, completely
2:09 pm
a complete mess. you can see yourself, but standing outside the could also seeing the passengers. apparently all 18 people in board survived. the only person to get an injury was the pilot. reportedly it's a fractured bone, a broken leg, maybe. but the doctors are saying they're examining him and just to make sure what exactly is wrong with the pilot. now here's how the co pilot described what happened in the air the best for me. so if you want to let me know what i will do is platform so platforms, according to some unconfirmed reports, what could be behind this engine failure was that they just froze up, you know, when it's cold and you're flying out somewhere before taking off the playing is being pulled on the special a special liquid. this is done specifically to avoid situations like this and why
2:10 pm
it wasn't done in this particular situation. if that turns out to be the case, if that turns out to be the cause of the problems with the engine. well, nobody can on to this question right now, the special commission. we'll have to look into this. well, it's not every day we hear about airplanes. crash landing, but this isn't the 1st time something like that's happened and rushes. no, not at all. and also with a positive outcome as well. a couple of years ago in 2019 a very similar story happened to a big air bus 3 to one with more than 200 people on board, just outside moscow as the plane to cough. and as it was ascending, climbing up it hit a colony of c goes. so several birds got sucked into the plains engines, so one gave out immediately, another one was barely working. so the plane began to lose out to you. so the crew, the captain, made the decision to make an emergency landing in a corn field. they did successfully. everybody survived all more than $200.00
2:11 pm
people survived, no major injuries and he's how a flight attendant was giving directions to the passengers as they were evacuating from the area on the other student that each student that's going to need it. well, that's not that good, but it really does looking at the process. so the captain of the playing the me, you super. he was later given a wooded with a golden star over the hero of the russian federation. so even though this plane as much small and hopefully the pilots in the crew that saved 18 lives, hopefully their feet will be awarded somehow as well that south africa, his witnessing its worst violence in decades with rise and losing erupt. thing after the jailing of its former president, more than 110 people have been confirmed dead. however, that was

2:20 pm
i the the, the, the, the, the ah, the ah cubans experience demonstrations for and against her by the government. many in
2:21 pm
the us allowed we say something must be done. what that something is, is not entirely clear. the fact is, the u. s. has been many things against cuba for decades, namely the long standing trade embargo, maybe washington should stop trying to help the cuban people for a change the welcome back and now the f. b, i failed to protect dozens of child gymnast by not responding earlier to allegations of abuse perpetrated by their teams. doctor, that's the charge of the us term department of justice, which does bureau to more than a year just to launch a probe the f b. i has since acknowledged its handling of the case was inexcusable. the magic was eventually sentenced to hundreds of years in prison for molesting children in portraying her reports. it's an immensely ugly story, and
2:22 pm
a story that's already quite old. on the one hand, he stands accused is one of the most prolific child molesters in sporting history. some women of team usa gymnastics, say they were forced to endure psychological and physical abuse in the name of olympic glory from young women lining up to face their former doctor in this high profile case that is rocking the world in gymnastics, a judge in michigan had slapped a very long sentence on the former's sports doctor. the fact that larry nasser will never walk out of prison alive, thanks to the length of his sentence, may reassure more than 200 of his victims. that justice has been served. indeed, that how many girls and women, if the more he molested during his doctor's career under the guise of giving medical treatment, but the older the story gets the more ugly details about others involved in this disgraceful scandal emerge. the man who once was larry nasser, his boss,
2:23 pm
is now facing criminal sexual charges himself. former michigan state gymnastics coach, cathy clay just learned. she's headed to jail for line to police and the ness. our investigation, who knew that in july 2021, i'll be reporting on another bombshell, a u. s. department of justice prob, has found for more than the year after receiving the 1st complaint, the f. b. i pretty much did nothing to deal with the sex abuse claims against dr. nasser. just by the extraordinarily serious nature of the allegations and the possibility that nasa conduct could be continuing senior officials in the indianapolis field office failed to respond to the national legation with the seriousness and urgency that they developed and required the action and inactions of the f b, i, employees, described in the report, are inexcusable, and a discredit to this organization. what's most shocking is the price paid by the
2:24 pm
victims during the overlooked 14 months. the sex offender retired as physician of the u. s. gymnastic steam, but continued in the same role at the michigan state university high school and a gymnastics club. delays in legal action against nasser, lead to the abuse of 70 young female says the d o. j. according to lawyers. that number could be as high as 120. this is a devastating indictment of the f. b. i am the department of justice. the multiple federal agents covered up in the san abuse and child molestation. no one seems to give a damn about these little girls. here's another disturbing reminder of what these victims could have been going through. when i was 13, just the kid laying on a table, i miss you. and you for your own glove hand, all over my rear, i slipped into the most private area of my body. i did not know that at the same
2:25 pm
time larry was penetrating me. usa gee, was systematically burying reports of sexual assault against member coaches in a file cabinet instead of reporting them. why did you make me hate the one thing i loved so much? why did you take my dreams away from me? you lie to me and manipulated me to think that when you treated me, you were closing your eyes because you had been working hard when you are really touching me, an innocent child to pleasure self. and who knows how long the of be i would have kept turning a blind eye on this disgrace if it wasn't for a detailed investigative report by the local outlet. the indianapolis star, plus that coincided with local police finally responding to dozens of complaints from gymnast. but again, real action was more than a year late. moreover, the d o j found that later the special agent in charge of the f b i. indianapolis, field office, w. j abbott,
2:26 pm
wide city inspector general's office numerous times about the handling of the case . and a bid to allegedly cover up the investigative mistakes and missteps agent abbot was never brought to account just like the rest of his team and was allowed to retire with full benefits in 2018. the department of justice now needs to decide if it is going to be yet another institution that fail survivors, or if it's going to enforce some measure of accountability for these crimes. and in that same tweet, the senator is echoing the number one question on everybody's mind. how many athletes would have been spared, unimaginable pain if the f b, i had done his job. hey, it's not only those on capitol hill waiting for answers, but the entire nation too, will the f. b, i speak out and live up to the expectations. the pentagon has
2:27 pm
admitted that some of the colombians suspected of taking part in the assassination of haiti's president, previously received u. s. military training. several had also been informants for the u. s. struggle forestman agency. the review of our training databases indicates that a small number of the co been individuals detained as part of the investigation had participated in past us mail, treat training and education programs while serving as active members of the columbia military forces. what haiti's president was murdered in his home on july, the 7th around 20 suspects have been detained. pentico doesn't. trainees are committed to human rights and the rule of law, but the head is the chief justice and democracy in haiti told us that washington plays a central role in the country's bloodshed or not. even if the us didn't, wasn't involved in the assassination itself. the u. s. was deeply involved in creating the conditions that allow this assassination to happen,
2:28 pm
notably as support for, for the peach tea party. and so what they're asking is that the us stop propping up a dictatorship in haiti that the us stop talking about sending soldiers. they don't want us soldiers, people who are associated with the da haben, involved in crimes. and there's also been a history of the agents themselves being involved in drug trafficking and other crime in haiti. most human rights groups a long time ago decided that that actually instituted controls was unrealistic. and have been calling for for just d, just stopping this kind of training, but they continue some of these programs. and i think you are continuing to see people who are trained, they're using those skills to commit human rights violations. europe is ditching fossil fuels, at least that's the intention. under new radical li plans, the doctors say will stop the sale of petrol powered cars and go carbon neutral or
2:29 pm
within the next decade. the overarching goal was and of course is to make europe the very 1st climate neutral continent in the world and to build a new growth strategy to get there. however, going cream will come at a cost to new tax on goods coming into the you will be used to buy local firms to make the switch to clean energy, environmental activists. though george bar, that does think that this is the wrong time to make such a move to a carbon budget for good to 1.5 degrees, which is all the government claims. the control that budget runs out in 2020 step by 2027. that should be, if we want to stay with 5 degrees, that should be known will competition. now obviously reaching that because we've delayed action is mainly because of lobbying from the industry and the revolving go
2:30 pm
between the corporation. now looks like an impossible cross that is absolutely what we should be aiming for. instead of aiming for their carbon, it's close to 2027 as possible. and bearing mind, you know, for even one to 5 degree the last week just in, in germany. you know, a 100 people died because it's flat to climate change with thing, you're north america on fire, the fire center, the. he's already a crime against humanity. surely this is more, more delay when we need to real transfer direction. you watching out into national title company tonight that brings you up to date with all the needs so far we'll have more for you at the top of the ah ah, the.
