ah, in the now just in front of a bridge that was under construction at the time locals are telling me that the construction equipment that was on that bridge was swept away as if it was nothing to record floods, germany and belgium, with more than a 100 dead as entire buildings are swept away, more than a 1000 people are still missing. it looks as if a bomb has like more work streets and looted stores, south africa, stuff as another law of riot saw from the jailing of its former president. we speak to the woman who, amid the chaos, through her child from a burning building to a crowd of bystanders to save her life. so if we go and i was waiting for them

to come together, then asked to the baby and i will be going to see who should be. no man, nice because i was holding my hair like the as all local setup roadblocks, defend neighborhoods, we follow a police operation to catch the lucas miraculous escape for passengers on board a russian playing the crash lands off the disappearing off radars on the siberia. ah la from moscow, thanks for joining us tonight or 19th and i should love daniel hawkins with beautiful sunrise. welcome to the program. unprecedented flooding have killed more than a 100 people in germany and belgium. that's after 2 months worth of rain fell in just a few hours. streets have turned to rivers and homes and even bridges have been swept

away with a military now being called in for help. the me i think the place has been completely evacuated yesterday. they use the helicopter to rescue people from the roof. we woken up to half puff to night. unfortunately, they had to tear down the door, but i complained the rescue for doing that i was hit, had just finished cleaning up, was about to sit down to enjoy a cup of coffee. when it all started, suddenly the water came flooding him from above and from behind from all sides, i only had time to move away my car and it was all covered and water already. it was quite mad. my son called me last week and he said the basement flooded. we thought, oh okay, there goes to basement. and then a day later,

the whole flat was water. we had to sit upstairs in the bedroom, and here we are now for been clean up. our state of emergency has been declared across west and germany with people to divide to stay at home. rescue workers found several victims drowned in their own basements. helicopters are currently trying to evacuate survivors from rooftop proposing from one of the worst. his areas. he is p thought of the sicily here in hog in the reins over night that we're forecast 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 southern grounds. 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 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 construction equipment. it was all not bridge was swept away as if it was nothing. that's the, the physical costs, the, the material costs. but unfortunately, in tragically the human cost of this natural disaster is still well. well beyond being counted, what we understand is a number of people are still counted as missing. in fact, in one area, all the safe to ride on philosophy at the local authority. 3 thing else that 1300 people were counted as missing as far as they're concerned. that may well be down to what we're on. the hoping that's down to is the fact that the telecommunications that worked in a lot of areas on functioning properly, people on able to get in touch with one another. however, tragically, in that particular town of, via 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 we came here. it happens so fast. we couldn't look as fast as the water came in. it was really bad for us. we lost that it couldn't be so bad, but then it got really bad. and there was more and more and more water than we were told that we had to leave the house 5 scene footage from the end of the scale of the destruction. you're looking at rivers that have 1st buying and flooded kilometers away from their usual foundries. people's home well and truly flooded 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 sleep on the higher floors of houses to remain there. also not to drink 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 were washed away overnight. several others also in a state of being partially washed away when it comes to rescuing people in the cologne region. rescue is having to use both as 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 credibly more dangerous. not just for those in need of rescuing. but also for the rescue is who are having to go in to do that and look needed an incredibly dangerous job. the german army has also being drafted in 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

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. seems also have demonstration in belgium. i have an ice has rivers 1st. banks 22 pathologies have already been reported with thousands of actuated from their homes. neighboring from st for he rescue work is a helicopter to help in the recovery effort. 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 last major floods in the early ninety's. part of a key moment away has been closed with power cuts also reported the families of passengers on a plane that disappeared from radios. i saw a barrier have breathed a huge sigh of relief. that's after all 18 on board survived. the crash landing off the both engines failed. it was done and gave us,

gave more details to don quarter. so the plane in question is an and 28. it's manufactured in ukraine and it's a quite old machine, 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 to cost in siberia and 20 minutes 29 minutes into the flight. the air traffic controllers be 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 border the helicopter and began to search in the area where they were expecting to find the plane. so they supported it as it was lying their belly up, all low rec, completely. it's a complete mess so you can see yourself, but standing out the signs, we could also see 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 his how the co pilot described what happened in the air the best for me if he was really between you for several years. so puts him 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 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 engines. well, nobody can answer this question right now. the special commission will 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 people survived, no major injuries. and here's how a flight attendant was giving directions to the passengers as they were evacuating from the area over

the other student that each student that's going to leave it. well, that's not good, but it was looking at the process. so the captain of the playing the me, you super, he was later given awarded with a golden star over the hero of the russian federation. so even though this plan is much small and hopefully the pilots and the crew that saved 18 lives, hopefully their feet will be awarded somehow as well. so the africa is witnessing it was violence in decades with rights and losing a routing off the jailing of its former president. more than 110 people have been confirmed dead. however, there was a very lucky escape for a young child in the city of durban. a warning you may find these images distressing. amid the rising flames and gulf the child's home when a block of flats and her desperate mother threw her to

a crowd of bystanders on the street below to savor. they would then seem cheering as a total was caught safe and sound. you know, this is what the mother told us about what happened. miller affairs doing what i can say. he yeah, excellent. just so shocked. cuz she always remind me of what i did to her leg when she sees the building outside. so it was pointing the mom you drew me down. you drew me. whatever news the flex spending, we only smell smoke from the 16th floor and the lady from the recession, she was going floors were telling us to come down. we read something in the 2nd floor. we're not sure because we're outside of the plant. so when they were saying that people from the 3, those standing in the street by mystery, they were trying to help us taking the lessons for us to go to the latest. so when i was there, there was the other big lady said she can carry the baby for me. so i think the

face, down face, outpatient, didn't give me to be me. so i can come out because the only thing i wanted with my baby to be out, she refused and said no, i'm going to go fast enough so you can go, you can accumulate, they do. and i'm down after she got into the sale of the stairs fall in with her, and it was black. people are trying to help her now. there was no any other way for us who was stuck. and it was little fussy, there was a lady behind me, i wanted to can you please tell me the baby's gonna be going to be before me. so i'm going to go up downtown. you can give the babies who me control the babies in the us or are you stay to go? the baby for me. the baby is crying and no, no, never mind new crime. just solid to me because flooding up the kitchen, people is gaming sola, paula go. and i was relieved because i can see people, they change a lot, but i didn't even know those people, but i so they, they willing to help us. that it made me pause and see that. so if we call joe joe and i was waiting for them to come together,

then after the baby and i was scared to be when they could see ocean, they know it's going to be nice because i was holding my hair like the lackey they call it shaded me, directed me, go this way, go this way. they took me down the they, they were catching me also. everyone was saying you, you, brave brave with what is writing stores and warehouses many been killed in stampedes and estimated. 800 sharps already been destroyed and locals in al, cleaning up the wreckage. and john is burg, correspondent pool asleep, went along with police as they hunted down suspected looters. i mean alexandra township in south africa where the police and community leaders are undergoing a nighttime operation, trying to recover some of the stolen goods that were ransacked by people over the last few days. so walking towards a house way, they have recently conducted an operation. hi, what do you have in your hand? flour and stuff that was stolen. how do you know it was stolen?

now we've got to pull and who lives here. if somebody inside it's been inside. okay, let's go inside and see who's been doing this feeling. 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 purple as to who conducted the band 2nd over the past few days. so here we entering someone's home who's been stealing stuff. what is there? and there is a door and the turtles and the other stuff as you see the in the car there goes and just wanted to take your thinking. there's a suspect. how do you know what the doctor was stolen and what stuff belongs to the family? in this case, they told us to whatever is in here, it is due to his friend, a prodigy and, and some of the things have been taken away to be sold. i don't know where he

hasn't told us yet. where are you taking him to this house? what happens to him? now, why do i say here the community members see the people of alexander? they must come and stand up and make sure we've taken the door to door. we'll take him back to the people that they have to come and claim that for parties. because now we don't have a pen more within my shops this. it was peter, people just walk one minutes, always getting something to come and fix up you 1000 little, 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 yet some more goods that the police are taking with him that have been confiscated. so the police are loading what they've managed to take

from this house and among the stolen goods are a number of doors. and a bottle of pain the yes was on the when out at the police headquarters way they are unloading some of the stolen goods that they've managed to recover help with. how many places were you able to go to tonight and how much stuff were you able to recover? because they have a cover lot of stuff and then we go 7 places. and then the, i think, to model for the one who's giving you the information as to who the and where these deleted stuff is coming into prevail. and they're giving us the information on this

computer of alex because now they're thinking about want to see opinion. and they see this is on the i'm here at the main police station in alexandria. the suspect has been full care and is being held in one of the short time ago. there was no electricity in this area and the police were 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 and violence policy. a r t l is sondra from negligence to straight up mistakes. delays by the f b i to investigator, dr. accused of abusing them with a children's gymnastics team lead to further abuse. that's the conclusion of the us justice department. we'll have that story and the reaction to it after the break. ah

the cannot. they are to say that no politicians are under work, can't even bear to say to the people, oh, we have to reduce the consumption. this is why so far the consumption issue did not was not taken up pretty seriously. so or, but it's a very serious issue. so we cannot address the climate change issue unless the people around the word realize that we cannot continue our over consumption as we are doing now. the cubans experienced demonstrations for and against the hub on a government. many in the us allowed, we say something must be done. what that's something is,

is not entirely clear. the back is the u. s. has done 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. the what now says claim russia and china are undermining trust in western vaccines and a bit to promote their own jobs. for a secretary, jim saki insisted moscow, and by jing misinformation is exaggerating the risk of thought effects from american and e. u. jobs or t correspondents, kayla. more financial details. there is a huge anti vax movement in the united states. many americans are simply refusing to get vaccinated for coven 19, so we figured it wouldn't be too long before the white house started pointing at the usual suspects. russia and china has promoted their own vaccines through

messaging that undermines western origin vaccine does help development programs. so, you know, that is more than just competition about vaccines. the risk and impact there is that this type of information magnifies the risk of potential side effects associated with western vaccines. this is what the, what the information some of this misinformation is doing. it seems like what the white house spokesperson is saying is that reporting on the findings of u. s. federal agencies is somehow just information because it was the us food and drug administration that came forward and recently warned about the johnson and johnson, single dose, cobra, 1900 vaccine. and the fact that it could actually cause gillian bar syndrome, which is an auto immune disorder that attacks the nerves and could result in paralysis. now these cases have been rare, but this is according to the food and drug administration. the u. s. federal government agency, now it was officials in denmark who recently suspended the use of the johnson and

johnson and astro venica vaccines, citing possible harmful effects. but apparently that's just information even though it came from the danish ministry of health i. it's also worth noting that on this accusation of competition, the main reason that people traveled to russia to get the vaccine was simply because they didn't want to wait for months to be vaccinated. here's what they said in the 30 people my age of can. busy lead to be vaccinated after the summer. so very far i decided to make initially 9 most. now when it comes to damaging information about the vaccine, the white house certainly made quite a few gaff themselves. take a listen. we are quite focused on communicating directly with those people, hence our special guest today about why it's important to get vaccinated. why do you fact scenes are safe? why they can still kill you even if you are under the age of 27. we need to be

clear and direct about our messaging. i guess that's what the buying and ministration considers to be. direct messaging the use last legal action against the member states, hungary and poland over what it calls discrimination against the l g. b t. community. europe will never allow parts of all sides to be stigmatized. we start legal action against hunger and poland for violations of ponder. mental rights of l g b t i q people of several polish regions of adopted resolutions declaring themselves free of l g b t. audiology. furthermore, was constitutional court has now said it rejects decisions by the use top court on the matter of brussels as similar troubles with hungry as well. and young garrett law bands, depictions of homosexuality in educational materials and tv shows for children under a team. now the government has also ordered a disclaimer on

a book with gay content, the state it contains behavior, inconsistent with traditional generals. it does seem over the authorities of single member states on the you itself perceive the same laws differently for europe in parliament. and the european commission wanted to let the l g, b, t, q activists, and organizations in schools and kindergarten. hungary does not want that debate is about who decides which way we should be the children, according to the european funding treaties. this question evidently, falls under the competence of the hungarian what it is, a national competence law has primacy over national law and all decisions by the european court of justice, including orders for interim measures are binding on member states authorities and national court. we spoke to political analysts, right, or office who says that you should focus on more serious issues instead of reacting selectively to specific theme. the question for me also as an observer is,

why does the e u, exclusively react on such as they call trend gression? thing to government in the only specific metric field. if we look at other metric field where government in the european union have violated you law that you have not seen the trick. for example, when the showing an area of the outer borders were not protected in 2015. no, really. if you read off the, you have the in theme, government in depth, them felt more than that. your regulations allowed no reaction in black the. we have over 200000, not a passport for russian descendants, and do not seek well enough as the national language. whereas the you who called for a to the roof of minorities,

etc. the f. b. i failed to protect dozens of child gymnast by not responding earlier. it's about asians of abuse perpetrated by the teams doctor. that's the charge of the us justice department, which says the bureau took more than a year just to launch a pro. there has since $6.00, the handling of the case was inexcusable. the medic was eventually sentenced to hundreds of years in prison for molesting children, ortiz alia, but franklin report, it's an immensely ugly story. and 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 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, 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 in the ness. our investigation, who knew that in july 2021, i'll be reporting on another bombshell. a u. s. department of justice probe 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 find 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 deserved and required the actions and inactions of the f b, i, employees, described in the reports, are inexcusable, and a discredit to this organization. what's most shocking is the price paid by the 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 this 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 put your on glove hand all over my rear. i slipped into the most private area of my body. i did not know that at the same 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 james 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 pledge yourself 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. lied to the inspector general's office numerous times about the handling of the case and a bid to allegedly cover up the investigative mistakes and miss steps. agent abbot was never brought to account just like the rest of his team and was allowed to retire with full benefits in 2018.
