we're out more with statistics. i'm scared that my children are going to grow up in a country. that thing says no racism, but they're more likely to end up in the criminal justice system than their other fellow friends in daycare. i think you know, 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 record. flood had germany and belgium was more than a 100. dad does entire building the flaps away. more than a 1000 people are still missing. it looks as if a bomb has like more more streets. i live in south africa, south as another night of riots up, the jailing of it's for 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 they swim. joe, joe and i was waiting for them to come together then after the baby and i will be good. they can see all the notes can amend these cars all holding my head. like as all the local setup road blocks to defend the neighborhoods, we follow a police operation to catch the looters and the miraculous escape for passengers on board a russian plane crash lands off the disappearing off radar area. ah la for most good. thanks for joining us. on the international tonight. i'm daniel hawkins with you till sunrise. welcome to the program. our president, it's flooding have killed more than

a 100 people in germany and belgium. that's off a 2 months worth of rain fell on just a few hours. 3 of turns rivers and homes and even bridges have been swept away with the military is now being cool in to help the me i think the place has been completely evacuated yesterday. they use the helicopter to rescue people from the roof. we woke up to half past 2 nights. unfortunately, they had to tear down the door, but i complained the rescue as for doing that i was here, i had just finished cleaning up the car was about to sit down to enjoy a cup of coffee. when it all started, suddenly the water came flooding him from above. 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, that goes to basement. and then a day later, the whole flat was water. we had to sit upstairs in the bedroom and she, we are now for been clean. slate of emergency has been declared across western germany with people advised to stay at home. rescue workers found several victims who drowned in their own basements, helicopters, and are currently trying to evacuate survivors from rooftop reporting from one of the workers areas here. peter ordered the mercifully here in hog in the reins over night that were 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 well, construction equipment, it was all not bridge was swept away as if it was nothing. that's the, the physical cost, 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 states 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 what we're on. the hoping that's down to is the fact that the telecommunications that work in a lot of areas are functioning properly, people on able to get in touch with one another. however, tragically,

in that particular town. if we did get news on thursday evening, the 9 bodies are being 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 fall from god. i haven't experienced that before. what came here? it happens so fast. we couldn't look as fast as the water came. it was really bad for us. we lost that. 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 thing footage from the air 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, to 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 overfilled into the towns was to supply me to cologne. not too far away in the same state, a number of houses were washed way 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 down street to do that. also in one area, a gas leak that can be turned off is also making things the credibly more dangerous . not feel 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. 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 if 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 offering it to you? we're also scenes of devastation in belgium and it has rivers. bank. 20 g fatalities have already been reported with thousands of actuated from their homes. neighboring france has sent for the rescue workers and a helicopter to help recovery, but extreme weather was also hitting the netherlands authorities that have told thousands to evacuate their homes at risk of flooding. rivers have gone above the levels even the past enough major floods the early ninety's. part of a key moved away. it's been closed with power cuts also reported the families of passengers on

a plane that disappeared from radar as they were. so the barrier have breathed a huge cyber relief. that's all for all 18 on board. survived the crash lighting off the both engines failed. egos done us gave more details on quarter. so the plane in question is an am 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 control is they received and signal from its emergency beacon. this is essentially the same thing as sending. so s please out them so rescue as voted 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 low rec, completely. it's a complete mess. so you can see yourself,

but standing out of the site, 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 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 so fucking, 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. busy 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 on to 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 happen in 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 sea ghost. 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 tissue. 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

people survived, no major injuries and he is how a flight attendant was giving directions to the passengers as they were evacuating from the area of the issue to other student that each student that's going to leave it. well, that's not good, but looking at the prospect. so the captain, a little of the playing, the me are you super? he was later given awarded with a golden star of a hero of the russian federation. so even though this plane as much small and hopefully the pilots and the crew that saved a 1000 lives, hopefully their feet will be awarded somehow as well. so have a good is witnessing it's worth violence in decades with riots and losing her up thing off the jailing of its former president. more than a 110 people have been confirmed dead. there is, however, story of a very lucky escape for

a young child in the city of dublin. a warning you might find these images distressing. amid the writing, flames and gulf charles home and a block of flats desperate mother threw her to a crowd of bystanders on the street below to save her. they were then seeing tearing us the total was caught safe and sound. this is what the mother told us about what happened. miller says, doing what i can say. yeah. lunches. so shock. because she always remind me of what i did to her leg when she said that building outside. so i was pointing that it's my mom, you drew me down to me, it would have been you 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 reached the 2nd floor because we're outside of the plant. so when they were playing with people from the 3, those standing in the basement,

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 was seeing the face down face. she didn't give me to be me. so i can come out because the only thing i wanted was to be out. she refused to said, no, i'm going to go fast enough. so you're going to get accumulate a new and i'm down after she got into the sale of the stairs fall in with her, and it was black. people were trying to help and now there was no any other way for us who has stopped and it was lot o 5 p. there was a lady behind me. i saw that. can you tell me the baby's going to be before me? so i'm going to go down the, the enough down down you can give that babies who me control the baby need. so are you stay to go the babies for me, the baby is crying and no, no, never mind new crime. just solid to me. flooding up the kitchen, people is gaming, so i go go and i was like, well as relieved because i can see people, they drink

a lot, but i didn't even notice people, but i saw a the willing to help us that it made me pause and see that so if we color joe saw and i was waiting for them to come together, then after to the baby and now escape the big when they can see ocean the nose going to me nice because i was holding my hair like actually they called shading me directed me all this say go this way. they took me down the, they were catching me also. he and everyone was saying you, you, you are brave. brave with right is leading stores and warehouses. many have been killed in pain and estimated 800 sharps already been destroyed and local was now cleaning up the wreckage in china's work correspondent, flawlessly attacked along with police as they hunted down suspected looters. i mean, an example 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 we walking towards a house where they have recently conducted an operation. hi. what do you have in your hand? flour, some stuff that was stolen. you have, you know, it was stolen. no, we've got people. and who lived here. it's 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. what he says and there is a door and the titles and the other stuff. as you see there in the car, there is one that is taking, taking with this is less but how do you know what doctor was stolen and what stuff

belongs to the family? in this case, the man who told us whatever is in here it is to lead 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 the house? what happens to him now, why do i say here, the community members say the people of alex on. they must come and stand up and make sure we're taking the door to door, taking that to the people the. they have to come and claim their properties. because now we don't have a pen more within our nice shops use. it was pretty good. people just walk. what minutes are we getting something to come and fix up the 1000 little whatever the trunk is, all 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. so i'm looking to find a neighbor will talk to us, he has them all goods, but 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. all of them 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? because they have. busy a cover lot of stuff and then we go 7

places. and then i think to model for the one who's giving you the information as to who the and where these related stuff is committed to giving us the information, the owners of alex. because now they're thinking about what to see opinion and they see this is on the here at the main police station in alexandria. the suspect has been full care and is being held in one of the 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 tried to deal with the current fate on violence policy. a r t, alexandra morning, just after the break. stay with us here on our internet. ah,

we live in an a now where the supply side of the equation is broken. so we're entering into the supply shocks where there could be microchips, for example, or basic commodities or sharply. and there's a food insecurity now by hundreds of millions of people around the world just emerging over the past 12 months because of it's runaway inflation because of the runaway money printing as we've been bank for a few years. so now people are really coming to grips with the fact that yeah, as the reports been right about it, what that join me every thursday on the alex simon show when i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport business. i'm show business. i'll see you then

me the moon. ah. was much the program if he i failed to protect dozens of child gymnast by not responding. it's about asians of abuse perpetrated by that same doctor at the charge of the us justice department, which says the bureau took just more than a year to launch a pro. and since acknowledge the handling of the case was inexcusable. the medical was eventually sentenced to hundreds of years in prison for molesting children as easily per trendkite reports. 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 lying 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 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 would be my seriousness and urgency that they devote and required the actions and inactions of the f, b i, employees, described in the report, are inexcusable, and a discredit to this organize asian. 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 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 am su. and you, for your and 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 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 lived 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 you're 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, at least 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 be f. b. i speak out and live up to the expectations the what has claimed russia and china are undermining trust in western, maxine that a bit to promote their own jobs for a secretary, jim, saki says that moscow in beijing misinformation is exaggerating the risk of side

effects from american and e u shots. article respondents caleb open has retails. 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 information 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'd 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 from my age, i 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 to 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 biden administration consider is to be direct messaging. the eas, last legal action against that mistake, hungary and poland over what it calls discrimination against the l. g. c. community . europe will never allow parks 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, or several poets reasons, so often resolutions declaring themselves free of l g

b t. ideology. furthermore or false constitutional court has now said it rejects any decisions why the use talk court on the matter of brussels as similar troubles with hungry as well. and you hungry law, binds depictions of homosexuality and educational materials and tv shows for those under 18 of the government. also ordered a disclaimer on a book with gay content to make it to state. it contains behavior inconsistent with traditional generals. it seems, however, the authorities of the single member states and the you itself received the same laws very differently. european parliament and the european commission wanted to let the l g, b, 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 founding treaties, this question evidently, falls under the competence of the hungarian when it is a national competence. the law has primacy over national law and all

decisions by the european court of justice, including orders for entering measures are binding on member states authorities and national court. while we spoke to your political analyst rougher, who says that you should focus more serious issues instead of reacting selectively to specific things. so the question for me also as an observer is why don't you react on such as a transgression of single government in only pacific metric field. if we look at other metric fields where government in the european union have violated 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 that you do have the theme.
