of central europe, entire towns and villages. i've been left in rooms more than a 1000. people are still missing those intense rescue efforts. continue. ortiz peter oliver is on the ground for us in germany. devastation thus was being left in the wake of waters that told through towns like this one in western germany leader of the state of nor throwing west valia and number one contender to be next chancellor of germany and lush. it is called the flood a historic disaster countries going through flooding, catastrophe on the historic scale, almost moss, as the waters of started to recede by into something close to their normal levels, you can see the trail of destruction that's being left by the flood that ripped through towns like this one, these old buildings that were in the past didn't stand much of
4:03 am
a chance that river flows just over my left ton shoulder here, where you can see it only does it destroyed everything is caught there. but on a molten house, just behind me, torn half of the side of the building off in some places in the flooded region, the clean up has been able to start. i was here, i just finished cleaning up stock 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 bad. my son called me last week and he said the bass into its 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 a big clean up an all too common fight in towns in this area of the belongings of people out on the side of the street sultan from the fluid war to the toll them through their houses, but another common sight,
4:04 am
things like this cause tossed around as if they'd being toys. the force in which the water came through these areas really evident and just how much damage was able to cause and how easily it was able to pick up tons of metal and slower than the one side of the flood waters, cruelly indiscriminate. while some places have been utterly destroyed, others have been incredibly lucky just meters away from those places that have been ruined. some houses left pretty much on touch, but they are the ones in the minority. others not so lucky heart mclean can begs home was right in the path of the swollen river to come into the woods again to this level one and a half meters. the water then spilled over with all of the strength of what would have been in the river as well, and headed over towards that house over their food. i've not experienced that in 30
4:05 am
years living here. it was unbelievable. the water seemed to gather itself up in the mountains and then with one big wave come down and hit us here. the st right in front of us turned into white water rapids just like a river. there were people in the basement who are trying to get out, but from inside you could not open the door because of the more to pushing against it. this is terrible. we had very good information, but people did not listen. they ignored it and they did not listen to it. we were told that we were going to have pretty bad weather. and from year to year it gets worse. you just have to accept it and respect it. and this was not done. it was dismissed is not a big deal, something that we could handle? no, we did not have it on the control. man is so small against nature. here we see it. so many people you don't expect people to die in a flood. in germany. you expect that may be in poor countries, but you don't expect to hear the thick sludge shows you exactly where the water is
4:06 am
reached. if we come up through this courtyard here, you can see some gas tanks over my right shoulder, 2000 and leases full gas there. thankfully the seals on those tanks didn't for a cause. they were picked up and jostled around by the flood waters that came through here. put it into perspective, a little bit of just how ferocious those waters were over there over my left shoulder, where those washing machines are. they used to be a caravan that caravan is now here inside of the carriage, you can see through the other side of the carriage that the river flows exactly on the other side of the property that its hole in the wood off the side of the garbage and told the concrete as well as it's moved its way through here, a force of nature that's left a trail of destruction. while the human cost is still not being calculated of this natural disaster, when it eventually get thrown, to calculating the financial cost of what's happened to throw it into the hundreds
4:07 am
of millions of euro. if not more, what we are seeing at the moment, those towns like this one completely evacuated because the biggest fear of the authorities is that more rain could see those water levels rise again. already recon building swells. they could then be the next ones that end up collapsing, and this is certainly a devastating natural disaster that struck west in germany. it's woman isn't over yet. peter, all of a r t in west in germany. so let's bring you another ra headline, stories today. the economic impact of the corona virus has left italy facing its highest poverty levels in 12 years. the numbers they're continuing to grow as well, with masses of people out of work on businesses struggling to survive. we heard from locals and one of the hardest hit regions live until they gave the until a few years ago, i was an entrepreneur who gave work to 40 families today. i'm 60 years old and i
4:08 am
feel humiliated. i feel like analogy to us for arms at this age, charity to try to move forward to survive too much of the situation is dramatic. there are people who previously had shops and restaurants now have to close everything they can no longer reopen because they have no more money. many people have turned to charities and their new poor, queuing up trust for food. what a bad situation you're paying, so it is total destruction. it's a situation that is truly frightening. the number of poor people is increased. they line up to ask for food. it is terrifying. they also go to church, his trust for money and alimony. unfortunately, this is the current situation, this is the new reality. but when you know those who had little money already have nothing left and i get it worse and worse, those who did not have a job and already financially struggling now cannot even pay their rent. i know people from this neighborhood who were well off and now back farms had very bad
4:09 am
situation. latest figures really are eyeopening, their show more than 5000000 people in italy now live in absolute poverty. now that's defined as high school income being below a level which makes it impossible for the person or family to meet basic needs of life, such as food and shelter. the category mixed up almost 10 percent of the entire sicilian population, while another significant number of families live in relative poverty. local authorities say it's a desperate situation. we've discovered the new poverty which is terrible. there are too many new poor people who didn't used to be poor, having serious psychological consequences. i want to make an appeal, i will keep making the regional leadership and the regional administration say yes sometimes because they keep saying no. i was told by some organizations that they are affected because people who were donating a contribution on to last year, a poor now and seeking a contribution. therefore, there are no doubt that the situation is really complicated. a week economy like
4:10 am
sicily was damaged by cobit or we've heard from on charity organization in palermo that supports people in need doesn't increase the food requests. indeed, man, if i was asking foot other families to ask him for shelter because they not have a job anymore, people have started sending emails to requesting aid. for example, one incident, the particular struck me was about one couple. they asked for sultan christmas, eep we imagined them like the now the with family coming and asking for help in these situations we hosted these people in a, b, and b to give them a certain dignity. another incident concerned a child to cold. asking for sultan because his father lost his job in his home. consequently, there are many such incidents were involved in another story where k a close. today. russia and china are undermining trust in western vaccines in
4:11 am
a bit to promote their own jobs. that is the claim being made by the white house, which saves misinformation, is being used to exaggerate the risk of side effects from american and you shots. but just home based in reality are those allegations kill up open reports. 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
4:12 am
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, coven, 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
4:13 am
. and he thought he, people of my age are scared. busy to let the 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 or seats 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 considers to be direct messaging. well, most of all cases of severe side effects have been reported from corporate like scenes. one example is actually at the sales case, which 1st came to global attention after she received the pfizer job in january. warning, by the way, you may find some of the following images. the stressing,
4:14 am
angelie is sonton assured. the video was on facebook, showing his mother shaking violently in hospital post vaccination. he said she suffered severe convulsions soon after getting the shelf in louisville and speaking to r t. angeleah said she had no prior significant health issues on claims. the u. s. government is turning a blind dye to people like her heart. i know that i would have lost the use of my life. so what has been tara law? i never would have taken it. there was never the no informed consent. what so ever about the side effects that i have tried? there was definitely not. 1 enough of awareness about hey, this could happen. see those full body convulsed and rumors, brain fog has saved with me. i'm 6 and a half months out now. i still have not recovered. if i do not take diver mentioned
4:15 am
daily, my symptoms come right back. we are completely brushed aside, and i think that's only because our government is trying to get to heard immunity and they're not going to address us. alright. knowledge until they reach their goal . a vaccination among the reaction we go to this entire story really was from professor of infectious diseases. william schaffner, who told us, people must be made aware of all potential side effects to that they can actually make balance decisions. when you educate the population, you have to tell them all about the benefits of the vaccines and you must be very clear about the side effects also. so they're not surprised and disappointed. every vaccine in the vaccine that we use has side effects. fortunately,
4:16 am
most of the side effects are very brief. they're very mild. they're our occasional rare, serious side effects. we must know about them and we must be transparent about them so that the people who come forward for receiving the vaccines can make a clear choice. seems to have formed outside stores in the south africa, the public buying comes after a week of some of the worst violence seen in the country and decades which that hundreds of shops ransacked and looted. tension takes loaded it with a jailing of former president, jacob, zoom on corruption, charges local, speak of a desperate situation. there is not, i fear stock is finished. i don't know what's going to, it's with my tad. i've got this mas alive for me. even in my life, i can buy this more thing like this because of this thing. i don't know what we're
4:17 am
going to do for the next 2 months. we're just trying to see what we can get what's needed at home. what does that mean? shut off, just follow cupboards just to keep us going. but it's been a frustrating week due to the planning buying the is a shortage of bread ingredients. people are waiting in the cues for a long while. and it's actually sad to see that some bread trucks have been taken down and been thrown into the river. there are a lot of people out there, old young, sickly, that battling to get just one loaf of bread. well, hundreds of shops been destroyed by the looters. some locals have been forced to arm themselves to defend their businesses, in fact, alleging that some police officers have been stealing as well. and others have lost literally everything. paul, asleep report, somehow, a family from one of johannesburg per serious has been coping. i'm hearing an exam
4:18 am
township, which has seen some of the worst violence over the past few days. for soft belonging to 15 brothers from outside the country were destroyed. downstage nothing remains. the shot, an upstairs where the brother live and store they products. everything had been burned. the brothers were lucky to escape with a live, but white now the brothers on feeding lucky. 25 years of work and savings gone up in flames. doing this on the electronic different grocery when you come, when you come to brick, everything that took everything. don't have money to buy food for children now. don't have money to pay their rent was so digging like what you're going to do now, because that again, they're going to do again, they're going to break it again. so where are we going to make a living room and it's clinical and what's happened there?
4:19 am
and in a closing my child, 7 o'clock, when i go to my room and i cooking cooking, we need to, i didn't finish 9 o'clock. people coming here, type bitten my shop and begging to get my talk, my down 500000 scope. now for the britain, listen, boom, go out to my sleeping room and i'm tending a hiding my center. one corner people in the building, my room damage. i think that some of the brothers were sleeping here with the stock . the looters grabbed everything in sight. and as they lift, set the room alight, television sits, electronics, cell phones, clothing, money, and passports. everything has gone among the torture remains, there is nothing worth salvaging and praying for god. god and i held men poor in
4:20 am
the 5 days only waiting not leaving the place. nothing but a mega day. what fun it before the benefits office. i'm now i'm really anything just nice to set and i was looking for deal. if i did some of the skip play my past, the brothers came to south africa on bangladesh, looking for better life. the last reverberates half way around the world. even of me, my family is from this part of my family's credit and hungry. when i'm making money, i eating my eating now. now making money, all is loading. my family are hungry as many south african the riot lasted only a few days. but shops on mt off to being looted. others are boarded up and delivery trucks are refusing to risk, bringing in more supplies. so on top of everything,
4:21 am
if a more south african are now going hungry, politically or r t, alexandra, taking a barb, bella roost lithuania with the backing of brussels fortified its borders after accusing its neighbour, deliberately sending illegal immigrants across the border. more in that story after this, the i cannot, they are to say that no politician or under work can you been there to say to 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 are on the word realize that we cannot continue our over consumption as we
4:22 am
are doing now. the driven by shaped by the in me dares thing. we dare to ask me. oh, let's start back with the story that the e. u has launch legal action against member states,
4:23 am
hungary and poland over what it calls discrimination facing the l g b t. community europe will never allow parts of our sides to be stigmatized. we start legal action against hunger and poland for violations of fundamental rights of l. g, b, t i q people, while several polish regions have adopted law securing themselves free of l g b t, ideology. furthermore, war. so as constitutional court has no, i said it rejects decisions by the use court of justice on the ramifications of that brussels. it's got similar troubles with hungry to new hungary and law bonds, depictions of homosexuality and educational materials and tv shows for the under eighteens. the government does also order disclaimers to be put on books featuring gay content sitting there contained behavior, inconsistent with traditional gender rules. it seems the local authorities
4:24 am
perceived their laws differently to the european 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 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. it is a national competence. g. u law has primacy over national law and all decisions by the european court of justice, including orders for interim measures or binding on member states authorities and national court. or geopolitical analysts reiner rough 1st believe that you needs to widen its focus. the question for me also as an observer is why does the youth exclusively react on such as they call trend gression of single government in the only specific metric feel. if we
4:25 am
look at other metric fields where government in the european union have violated law on the you have not seen that trick. for example, when the showing an area of the out of borders were not protected in 2015. no, really. if you read off that you do have the theme government in depth to themselves, more than that, you regulations allowed no reaction in black the we have over $200000.00 non citizen passport for russian descendants who do not seek well enough the national language. whereas the you who called for by a to the rule of minority, etc. yes. so there we have the e u condemning some of its member states over a controversial issues. but at the same time, it's giving its full backing to others such as lithuania,
4:26 am
which is placed barb wire on its border with bell roofs and past tough anti migrate measures. we're ready to strengthen our level of support and deploy more european standing cole. offices and equipment were speeding up and briefing up what was already planned and in close cooperation with the less awaiting authorities, were preparing. furthermore, a rapid border intervention. lithuanian border is our common external border and front tech stands ready to help when needed. hundreds of migrants of illegally crossed into a few india from bella, recent recent weeks joining the iran, 1700 people who help already been detained at the border this year. accused butler roost of deliberately shipping foreign migrants to the border. claimants, denied lithuanian authorities have also permitted the must. the tension of those migrants limiting their right to appeal li,
4:27 am
you stand on the issue marxist shift. quite a major on and policy to back in 2015 hungry, fortified expenses on the borders recreation serve. you might remember claiming that within 2 years that help cut the inflow of migrants by almost 100 percent brussels, condemned hungry for that branding to move races, fans, and phobic. there were also suggestions of the country should be forced out of the block. we discussed the issue with serbian american journalist net knowledge, their carving out an exception for, for wayne ya and it's border wall because this is to deal with bella ross, it's, they're dealing with the exact theme immigrants even there the carrion built the border fence to stop the people while not just people from the middle east, but general things to put it up to stop people from serbia. they put it up to stop the syrians, the rockies. afghans focused on ease of africans and so on who were using that particular route to get into the you. it's who does it as well as whom it is done
4:28 am
to if the move is aimed, i guess a designated enemies in this case, bella luce, then ok. it's fine, whatever, but if it's aimed against the designated victims, or to designate do gooders. in this case, you know, poor migrants from the 3rd world only coming to realize their basic human rights by getting onto european union welfare. then of course, that's horrible. terrible raises the moral etc. the whole point of my right up is that there is no moral consistency except the moral absolutes of who, who right up by the way, it's available right now r t dot com. and reminder for up to the moment, developments in this weekend or twitter page will keep you in the no life from moscow. this starting ah, ah, the eastern half of the united states,
4:29 am
we're going to have billions, if not trillions of periodical cicada is interacting with tens of millions of human beings in their back yard. oh, my god. obviously some of the cicadas do not have very high tolerance for alcohol because they are already passing out on the 6 minutes of 400. the very satisfying and the the, the, the
4:30 am
the, me you again. so when they say, why did you burn down the community? why do you know neighborhood are we don't own anything. we don't have anything. there is a social contract that we bought. but if you feel or i feel, then the person who in the authority come in and they fix the situation, what department fixes it to to wait on the contract. when you tell deaf industry clinic, give up, you bought the car shopping for 400 years. we played your game bill you're well.
