this one of the worst effected areas by the footy you can see over to my left on the building where the water actually reached. well above my own head, the job for people here right now is cleaning up following this disaster. you can see just behind me as people have taken all of their belongings from the houses, putting them out on the streets. everything covered with thick brown, sludge mud. the rain waters, the flood waters brought with them when they came into people's homes. extreme, heavy downpour started on wednesday and told months worth of rainfall. in a matter of hours, people in these towns say it was beyond the worst nightmare. it didn't go to several people, a dead, the bridge over the wood destroyed all the bridges in all the towns had been swept away. people don't have anything to eat or drink. there is mud and such everywhere
10:05 am
. everything is damaged. many houses of color is the biggest disaster ever happened to. it was understood, the speed at which the waters rose caught a lot of people off guard. this, coupled with it being the middle of the night seems to have contributed to the number of people killed in listed on the electricity and mobile phone that works for shut down by the rise of water with no way of contacting the outside world. no one knew who was missing and who didn't have connections. local officials in our violet said around 1300 people were missing on friday. thankfully, number is decreasing as communication networks are restored. it all happened very quickly last night and last at about 20 minutes. first, the manhole covers came up and then the water level rose up, the windows, the windows burst and within 2 minutes the hill house was flooded with water to meters high. i think it will take at least 2 or 3 years to clear everything up.
10:06 am
lena, brenda and her family were asleep when water from the river, usually half a kilometer away, started to flood the lower floors of their home. i heard screaming outside and then my dad, he screamed, i went outside downstairs and there was already like water flooding into our like downstairs. it was like so fast that we just grab stuff and tried to get out of there. i think it was like maybe 15 to 20 minutes. so the water came up to here. so if you're sleeping and then the water comes and you can open the door, it just in your room and you're drowning. i can't even describe the feeling like you see how destroyed it's going to be destroyed. this never happened before. it's like, i don't know. nobody would love it. you could even prepare for this.
10:07 am
one blessing is that no more rain has fallen in this area in recent days. what that means is that the clean up operation can get on the way, but it's going to be a painful and odd jewish process and it will be a long time before any sense of normalcy returns to these towns as was continues to be pumped from the lower floor of building in the path of the flooding. people here afloat coming to terms with a tragedy which is killed so many i left many, many more with their homes in ruins. peter, all of us are fi. fi la germany. south africa has been seeing it was violence for decades. writing and looting erupted to the jailing of a former president, wilton, 200 people have been confirmed dead in the middle of the riots in the city of durban. there was a dramatic incident that involved child who was miraculously saved. we'll show you
10:08 am
the pictures in a moment, but please the ward, you may find these disturbing flames engulfed her block of flats. a desperate mother threw her daughter to a crowd of biased, understood on the street below. they were then seen cheering, as the toddler was called, safe and sound. the mother then described to the terrifying experience. miller affairs doing what i can say. he yeah, excellent. just so shocked, cuz she always remind me of what i did to her lay when she said that building outside she was pointing though that's my mom. you drew me down. you drew me. whatever 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 reach, i think the 2nd floor, we're not sure because we're outside of the plant. so when they were trained cuz people from the 3, those standing in the steve ministry,
10:09 am
they were trying to help us taking their lives as far as who called to the latest. so when i was there, there was the other big lady say she can carry the baby for me. so i think the face down face, she didn't give me to be me so i can come out because the only thing i wanted was my baby to be out. she refused to said, no, i'm going to go fast enough so you're going to go, you're going 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. and now there was no any other way for commerce who has stopped and it was little fussy, there was a lady behind me. i saw that. can you tell me that they were going to be going to be before me? so i'm going to go down, didn't up down, down, you can give the baby to me, control the baby. so are you stay to go to babies? for me, the baby is crying and no, no, never mind new crying, just solid to me. i came flooding up the kitchen, people was gleaming, so go and go. and i was like, well as relieved because i can see people, they drank a lot, but i didn't even know those people,
10:10 am
but i so they'd be willing to help us. that it made me pause and see. so they scream color joe saw and i was waiting for them to come together. then after to the baby and i was gay. the big when they can see ocean, they know it's going to me nice because i was holding my head like the likely they called shading me, directed me the say go this way. they took me down the they, they were catching me also. and everyone was saying, your, your brave brave writers have been raving stores and warehouses with an estimated 800 shops, destroyed local clearing up what remained. some of him for groups to help police patrol the streets and prevent further violence. loosely, a spoke to some of the union city in south africa way the retreat west africans community is going out on a voluntary patrol tonight. they lost faith in the countries police and so like
10:11 am
other minority communities have taken upon themselves to defend the own street. and the own houses. ah, i think that both of them are due to the amount of water all over the country. they've been deployed to many different areas. that's why we are assisting walk and we're going to go to school to college city. we had to be bored with communities actually locating that and protecting this shopping to grow bombings, approximate. i've excuse me, what do you hear people regarding the shopping scene for looters? they'll probably be in the whole not got somebody to be vehicles in the life of the
10:12 am
fun and that's what they're going to be for the not days. it's the people from the the community itself is guarding the self contained in these rocks have been placed in the road to stop any kind of potential looters driving down this road towards the shopping center that's nearby here. and potentially trying to loosen the in with technology like this, what we can do is we can see them in the dark and we can immediately dispatch some of our gosh to go. it just sit there and it's actually happened the other night as well. i mean, what this also does is this little thing over here. so we can turn this on and it makes a very wide area like and especially the other night when they saw that they
10:13 am
weigh that off. they were hiding away from us. but the moment to be turned on, they obviously got the sky and they went back to where they came from. we don't have to put our guys into into harm's way until it's absolutely necessary for they to react. we can get another shopping center where the guys have made capital volunteers who've also been here for the last few nights, making sure that their communities are safe. we already for the same purpose, so they more experienced, they've got the weapon with the knowledge, so we follow the lead. all the all countries understand so. so it's pretty sad at the moment. but you all after saying you ought to go, she's a lost friend on one of the concepts on the end of the term. and we preventing those to come into a sub those records all. it's going to keep as much of the looting going on. there's a lot of possibility that has come out of the country and, and in a different aspect where we had a lot of division prior to this. but it's not that people that it's looted
10:14 am
basically. so you got the black, white in the color, all standing together to prevent the same thing from happening in all community. it's quite culture and now it's late. it's past midnight. we're going to head off. the gods themselves will stay here until the early hours of the morning. the situation remains tense and no one really knows what they come up with. policy a r t elberton kennedy, as indigenous communities urged the government to public school attendance. las going back decades to further investigate crimes against them comes as the other bombed graves of $160.00 more children were found in the country. this week. the native community says that as just the tip of the iceberg, the residential school system is being blamed for destroying the lives of many indigenous families. i didn't even talk about their abuse in residential schools, to my children. many of our children who ran away during the winter and froze
10:15 am
to death on their way home. and i am the black ropes. start lying about the children. oh yeah, they're doing fine here. in the meantime, they were missing and no one had searched for them. we had to steal much of our food in order to ship 5, and that's only part of our sure bible in red dan, shell. schools want you to imagine you have a 6 year old daughter that's been taken away from your has to go into an environment that shows no love. no hugs, no support. nathan, but verbal, emotional, spiritual abuse. i can't speak my language today because for experienced across the way. i've tried, you could scream and cry, and bank and there was no,
10:16 am
no one there to, to rush you. we were giraffe and be you could scream and scream. your vision, no one there to come to your help residential schools. the last of which closed in 1997 were aimed at assimilating native children into canadian culture remove from the families. many of them suffer physical, even sexual abuse for holding the century. 150000 were put through the system. more than 4000 deaths were recorded in 2015 the truth and reconciliation commission officially recognized the policy as being cultural genocide and the scandal has further grown. initiated with the 1st discovery of unmarked grace me. ringback i
10:17 am
i the discovery the grades is led to our age across the country. on canada day that was early this month, statues of queen victoria in queen elizabeth the 2nd were toppled by crowns chanting no pride in genocide. some indigenous creed, school for the annual celebration to be cancelled altogether. but most time has been targeted. those who run the schools leading to christine churches being attacked, several of them burned to the ground. the prime minister said the country must learn from mistakes of the past is difficult in moments like these
10:18 am
to fully comprehend the decisions of the past that led to these tragedies and atrocities. but it is necessary to absorb them and understand them. to be able to move forward. justin shooters words aren't enough for many in the community that demanding an apology from the pope. they held the catholic church responsible for much of what happened and believe that it has a case to answer. people are talking about wanting an apology from the pope. why do we have to before that? why, why hadn't gotten that yet? it is not apologizing. i feel like the people who i get up to the polls are feeling the same way. genocide is still happening to us to the may. you know, the governments how these policies in place that don't work with us. when police do
10:19 am
mental health checks with our people, they either die or they're thrown into the tuition where pills are thrown down. and if there's any children involved, they're automatically thrown into into the child welfare system. so there's a lot of things we get done with the police, not taking reports seriously. and predators know that ticket target. and people in general know that they could target a ludicrous non is our british law maker, described an ad by a top beer company that suggested covert vaccination was the only way to get life back to normal. although the has been a low uptake of shots by those age than to 30 politicians of warned heineken commercial sends out the wrong message. the
10:20 am
honey can really ought to consider whether the discriminating is loyal customers who may be, cannot be vaccinated for medical or other reasons. there were lots of people who can't be vaccinated and it's quite wrong that they should not be able to go into a pub. and have a drink, ludicrous, i'm surprised, not making recommendations and other countries given their levels of vaccine hesitancy or the outcomes after british ministers, reportedly through plans for mandatory vaccine passports to and to pubs and restaurants from the hilton. despite what's been seen as a hugely successful inoculation program with 35000000 people fully vaccinated in the u. k. britain, those fall from being me on the place were pro vaccine pressure is in full swing point. so there was an australian odd that is being criticized for employing scare
10:21 am
tactics and for using an active from an age group. not yet eligible for the vaccine . on top of that, the pace of inoculation in the country is slow, in part because of dose shortage is something critic se makes these campaigns even less appropriate. we put the issue of the debate. real worry for me about this is you're going to create to take society that will be those people who call and have a vaccine for medical reasons or maybe for the own reasons, or maybe because they younger and they haven't had that practicing invite yet. there is therefore going to be a to, to, is this, this is a, it is not going to create to, to the system. that's absolute. poppycock, people who can't have it for medical reasons, can i have a medical exemption? but if they just choose not to have it, they creating their own apartheid. they have a duty, particularly young people now to do their bids for the rest of society. for those who need the backseat. and so you should be label law generally,
10:22 am
the overall numbers with ration have been magic, clear body parts of actually seen, but she doesn't actually work. they don't stall transmission. i'm just passing i suggest you check the wells roll bar war. i'm very guess you stop spreading misinformation and face new jersey. you get behind this. there is a very big question over whether young people should have this faxing at all. and the reason for that is actually most young people will get cobit that recover. they'll be no long term sequentially, and this is about personal choice and responsibility. i want to do all these 3 things. i could go to the property and represent the young people have a duty, they should get vaccination as well. no one's talking about coalition. no one's talking about monday tree jobs, but if you know people want to have a full in active life, it's coming anyway. actually,
10:23 am
we should be encouraging those people. certainly, i've a 40 to make sure they have a vaccine. i would like younger people to have it as well, but i do believe in personal choice in liberty, we don't believe in compulsory vaccination, but what we do need to do is to get brittany back on track a perhaps not so secret service france his main intelligence agencies giving a sneak peak behind the curtains after launching a website to attract new talent. and it turns out that most french people do want to give double. 07, a run for his money on he, charlotte davis. good reports. it's made out to be one of the coolest job in the world. working for the secret service is not only drink come, shaken, not stirred. because the coolness gadgets on of course, you always get the bad guy that a newer certainly worked for the french with 52 percent thing that they want to be fine.
10:24 am
was kind of want to be a spy, to have a big car, a beautiful life money, a lot of money. i'd love to because it would be fun. you don't have it monday. so i run investigations and sometimes it's very sensational to discover the hidden truth . and i would love to, i always have the best tables and restaurants, the best cars, the most beautiful women and totally spectacular. and they know it all because they are the people who know everything in a paid to make the pros, fact, black cloak and dagger the french secret services. and the g. i saw you giving us mere mortals a peek into its work, launched the 1st website which snippets about top secret missions pending all terrorism, cyber attacks and foreign agents. they're not talking about me, so just hold on for a 2nd. nobody didn't put it in the buddies the young
10:25 am
go look at that. are you? where was i me? i don't even as sage advice, those buzzing ages, a professional manipulator. a spy will 1st show sympathy. an interest in the private life and activities of the person they are targeting. they are unenlightened, strategist who will do everything in their power to track their target in an insidious spiral from which that person will not be able to extricate themselves without outside help. you, i see you all, but coming by is until i think what, what mobile would the french take on until they want to be aging?
10:26 am
that's 100. 17 double. 0701. the james bond, the seriousness of the case is that called the money james james bond fakes because he's faxing do better 2 of them because i do both o s s y 17 and james bond, but i'm in phone, so i'm a little bit more for i want to say or says 117, he says here to says because he's french for sure that that we will move james bond because he is always defense to james james bond because he's charismatic. but don't get too excited while of truth and dream to the pe you the french secret service may now be more transparent. if you do show enough promise to be recruited, more than likely the only high life you're going to be needing is watching spine movies from your desk. charlotte, even sky. empower. ok you today,
10:27 am
but if you hungry for more use, check at a website. lots more available at r t dot com i the drug started as a way to come back, a great problem. what's the one? it's part of the attitude of the nation, not just of north dakota, and it got to be something that you could get elected. this time, the fight against drugs took a check and told us that andrew was a competent short form. this is way too dangerous for him to be doing. clearly they put him in harm's way. a rural college student does interest get shot in the head and found in a river like something else had to be happening rather
10:29 am
me a lot of welcome to world support. the great gentleman right, are go to sad that the solution to every problem is in the other problem. i know where is that more visible than in the history of technology. the current exist, actual threat of climate change is ultimately the total. all our efforts to improve the human condition can be ever be satisfied with that and keep the planet green at the same time. well, to discuss it, i'm now joined by ry. quang chunk principal advisors to the un secretary general on climate change and 2007 noble peace prize floria. it's a chunk, it's a great pleasure, great honor for me to talk to you. thank you very much for finding this. my pleasure. you've been advocating for a low carbon green economic growth for many, many decades. but you've got your noble peace prize for that. but it's only

recently, dad, the green agenda has become a practical consideration for many countries have been included in their policies. i wonder how do you feel about it? i am more excited that it's finally getting traction or more frustrated that it has taken such a long time. my feeling is mixed. there are some brush side as where there are certain downside. my basic idea about the concept or paradigm of green gross was the idea that investing and the protecting environment and climate change can be a driver of the economy grows and job creation rather than the burden cost on our economy. so at the moment we are just struggling between the 2 conflicting ideas that investing and protecting nature and even people, social welfare is a cost and burden on economy. but those are the thinking school of ideas that it is actually an investment, long term investment for
