does interest get shot in the head and found in a river like something else to be happening with? the the, the, the a grave systemic failure. germany faces, criticism for not doing more to prevent last week's flooding tragedy despite previous warning, almost 200 live the last on the damage court will about building the to one the, the world's richest man, jeff bezos successfully complete. that 10 minutes space flight in the private companies rocket off the thousands petition for him not to even come back home.

also about the fi in your pocket and a major leak named the french president emanuel macro. and as one of the targets over israeli developed phone, spyware, the latest generation flying power is showcase a big crowd just outside moscow. the bi annual max asher, which open today, also including the unveiling of a brand new su, voice fighter jet. ah no i just after midnight on wednesday here in moscow, this is our see international live area we're looking for you with a number of dead confirmed now after the devastating floods in western europe has risen to 199. we understand still, there are 300 people unaccounted for. search and rescue operations remain underway in the worst hit areas of both germany and belgium. meanwhile, the opposition in germany, it's called to the interior minister to quit in flames him personally for the

country's unpreparedness. the floods, of course, damage estimated at more than 2000000000 euros volunteers have been coming in from far and wide to help clear the devastation of crippled infrastructure. coupled with huge piles of debris. it's making it difficult just to move around and ultimately for life to return to any semblance of normality. sounds easy as you see it is terrible. everson is as tried. many people don't have any emotion . the businesses are also close to it is like a nightmare. i can't remember what was probably hit we should have learned from this mistake, 2000 and what happened could happen again, could nobody expect scale? well, it's not only locals and goodbye. the authorities, response politicians and the climate experts claim the government knew of the impending catastrophe. in advance but fail to warn and citizens officials the claim

that the work to areas were altered. that has led many to us. what went so badly wrong as peter oliver now reports is before the floods struck west and germany, belgium looks in bergen, benevolence, the copernicus, satellites that make part of the european float awareness system detected problems with on their way. for the region, people in our viola, one of the worst effected towns in germany, have been critical of the warnings, or lack thereof that were given or done come to the key. no one was expecting a warning tank to lead a public announcement. 5 or 6 hours in advance would have helped to save some essential belongings for another problem is that many elderly people didn't even understand what was going on if they didn't hear anything about it. and then they're also the foreigners, everything should have been organized better. people should have gone door to door or received a warning by phone in history of what happened with the opinions of experts analyzing what happened. today's information. you can just refer to the fact that

people were informed by text message. you have to imagine how much information is being dumped on people every day already. but then they said, yes, we sent out messages, hogs and people on the spot and perhaps getting people out of their homes and particularly on hidden places. visiting the scene of the devastation caused by the flooding and western germany champ langler miracle pledged more efforts to tackle the challenge is posed by climate change. quickly, chavez, which is the germany, is the country that can overcome this financially. germany, the strong country will oppose this force of nature in the short term, but also in the medium and long term. the policy that takes nature and climate into accounts more than we have done in recent years. there had been warning from the weather in 2016, the river versus bank, causing damage to bridges and other infrastructure. they were repaired, but nothing was done to protect against future. high water is not a secret that streets and bridges and all these dams are not in

a good condition and nobody's investing in it. and they're just like waiting till something happens again, 5 years ago we had a situation similar to this one and a bridge in the near broke and they just repaired like, okay, for now. and nothing happened till then. and now the bridge is gone again. this part of germany is no stranger to flooding, which banks the questions. why were the authorities not better prepared for what nature would throw out them this time? and will lessons be learned from this tragedy piece role of a r c. in cologne, germany. we spoke to under a 100 co and m p for germany's left party. he says the government's repeatedly broken his promises when it comes to the issue of emergency systems checks. we are witnessing a fatal or a monumental sailor on different levels. you know, we have to germany, a federal system. so it's not easy to identify where the problems aware. but for

example, the, the federal government is free. they, they do that last year to check their allow system. and this was the sailor and the renown to do it again this year and to repair it. and they didn't do so. no, they are not the hist for next year. it states that the warning system and of following evacuation in other countries were a better organized germany, which is the which is because the high developed country. but there's a problem in that system and we have to check it and we have to make it better. there are political responsibilities, people are not sitting there with of the big part of the

huge wildfires are raging and ne, russia with a massive effort now on the way to try and bring the situation under control. special, 5 fighting power troopers have been deployed. in fact, here in the video, you can see them in action, jumping out of the airplanes and power shooting down to the hard to reach areas. each trooper has a 20 lead, a backpack to fight the flames, and of course, shovels to take those crucial fire breaker life. the emergency services volunteers and locals have all been doing that bit to try and down the flames. in your thick smoke is tempering efforts in the worst hit areas. now, according to the emergency is ministry. a close to $200.00. wildfires voting right now with a specialist, helicopters, drop it into a forest. fires are also raging in another region that have cornelia a popular tourist destination. this either west, the northwest of the country and people living in the area have been evacuated to safety. there are region wide drought has certainly made the forest ferry dry,

highly vulnerable to wildfire. well, the best in the next generation flying power has been dazzling in the crowds just here outside of moscow. among the attendees at tuesday's opening of the max asha was plugging a putin, he got a chance to, shall we say, assess the latest sequoia fighter jet. now the bi annual event has been around for almost 3 decades. it'll run for 5 days this year. and after today's big events with the highlights, artes, you could have done to today's, the 1st day of one of the world's biggest shows, max 2021. today is also a business day. so it means all the top bosses of brushes companies working in defense in high tech, in the space. they're all here to network and well perhaps make deals. but by far the most high profile jessia is vladimir. we came here not only to enjoy the show, but also for a grand reveal of something that is stored in

a warehouse in the background behind me, it was a wash in that fight agenda. brand new never seen before, never presented to the public named check. make it seems pretty much everything is out of the ordinary with this new fighter jet evens and naming foods outside of the russian tradition. like for example, mig at 35. this one has a more of a nato style name, checkmates again. now we don't know much about this machine yet. what we have been told is that you can carry up to almost 7 and a half tons of military equipment and travel at the speed of twice the speed of sound. now this was certainly the most impressive thing shown today, but not the only one we've seen brand new russian passenger jets fly. also some

impressive aerobatics from another. gen fighter jet sou who 57. now this was of cool is just the 1st day this show will be open to the public for a few days more for a couple of more days for everybody who might be willing to enjoy the show thrown by some of the world's most elite performers. so he's already the world, richest man, but amazon found a jeff bezos has scales new heights, softer blossoming off into orbit in his own rocket, the man and, and start to watch the was a bit of a quick trip to space for the entire journey that last had just 10 minutes with read off landing, safely back on us. some though had wanted the billionaire to stay in the space for good and online petition objecting to his re entry rock up important 100. 60000 signatures. a gauging the pulse of the nation on this issue in new york is caleb

people you had a need a weird, but i'm saying it's a lot of things happen in the world. you don't need to be flying to the space. well, that seems a little bit extra human, but maybe because it will probably never really happen. those 3 people alone can take care of the whole world's problems right now with the pandemic. but they're going to space at the end of the day. we supposed be focusing on our population, not up there down here just days. those is not the only billionaire to have gotten space fever. he actually lost the space race to another. ultra richman, richard branson, and ilan mosque is set to be 3rd on the podium. they all claim that it's for the common good way here to make space more accessible to all welcome to dawn of a new space age. recent studies showed that a minimum wage worker cannot afford a one bedroom apartment. in 93 percent of the counties in the united states, this is not a situation where people can afford to just get off to the stars for

a holiday weekend. now there are many billionaires like days i was who actually avoided paying taxes. many look at this and blame a corrupt loophole. written tax code that allows the rich to avoid paying their due backwards and corrupt tax system has allowed the same person who pays next to no federal income tax to blow $7500000000.00 on his own. private aerospace company, while hard work in american families pay an average of 14 percent income tax each year, basis on the other 1000000000 ads and it's obscene rates to space, to be re, to pay this show. while working families were struggling to pay their bills and the infrastructure of the united states is crumbling, the billionaires are having their own little space race and seeing who can reach the stars faster. do you think you'll ever be able to afford to go to space? i can't afford to live in new york. the average person can barely afford starbucks travels, never going to be affordable for everybody. by the fact we might be because you know what, as this economy is coming down to order technology and everything is being upgraded

to the fact that how we bought the movie was earth. i mean over to an explain it possibly. so you never know with many feeling that glory projects such as races into space to make a mockery of the hard work carried out by the majority. it shouldn't be a surprise that many are wondering if we shouldn't just dump the ultra rich into outer space as the latest piece of space. junk muffin r t new york has become the 2nd 1000000000 s or privately make it a space and less than one week. but those achievements aren't exactly impressing oxfam, which has calculated that for every minute of business. mobile goes to space. 11 people die of starvation globally, richard wolf at the university of massachusetts. and the host says the trips are simply an extravagance. is it reasonable to allow billionaires to do 2 things? decide how to spend their money? for example, competing on getting on rockets into space and number 2,

how do you justify the enormous wealth devoted to this kind of rich persons? amusements? morrow demands are more powerful than allowing the super rich to become even richer. as for example, they have over the last 18 months even while the rest of the world was struggling with the cold. busy dead pan demik still in the mix of the upcoming stories here is rarely developed phone by where has been used by government worldwide to potentially snoop on john list politicians, a priest. so it also, the french president will give you more on that in just the the, the is your media,

a reflection of reality the, in a world transformed what will make you feel safer. type relation for community. you going the right way? where are you being that somewhere which direction? what is truth? what is faith in the world to corrupted you need to defend the so join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. ah, we ventured a new era, an era of confusion about the inflation, is giving way to a new era about the confusion of inflation

the ah, could a box down here in moscow? israeli developed phone spyware was used to keep tabs on the french president emanuel macro. that is, according to new revelations, relating to the pegasus hacking tool brought to light by a group of investigative journalists, a several other top french officials were also targeted. the iliad says, has taken the claims very seriously. just a short time ago, i spoke with ortiz, charlotte, 2 months game president mac call of france may have been one of those that were targeted by this is really spying software that now via the peg. is this project also not just him, but 50 members of his government from back in 2019 now this spyware,

which was still valid in israel, essentially, attacks of phone. and when it's on the phone, it allows the people who are spying you, to turn on your microphone and to turn it off. i will, meaning they can record your conversations. they would also have access to all of your messages on applications such as what's up or if you have an iphone on your message and allowing them to basically search through all of the data in your phone to uncover pretty much anything that they want it. now this data breach was revealed initially by a french group. they're called forbidden stories, and they've been working with a series of newspapers and media outlets around the clay with the last few days, revealing this huge leak of numbers from across the world. it even includes close relatives of those who were ministers in mac. cohen's government, including the wife we understand of the french prime minister,

former french prime minister edward felipe. now this is just the tip of the iceberg though, because those data leaks so far, health revealed around a 1000 individuals came in france will potentially targeted by the software by spice services, intel services by countries such as morocco and they included human rights activists, politicians even journalists around $180.00 journalists across the world were also targeted in this attack by this use of pegasus and hearing from it included the human rights activists, dominique simon on. she do mean the fact that dominic seminar was spied on means that almost all important journalists in all tauriel offices in france could be spied on if that's what's important when it's not just why attempting this means that absolutely any information leak out. this is a violation of the fundamental right. so most important companies as well as it is that some of the big publications will roll. so apparently targeted by this peg.

this is spice software. and as a result of that, the paris prosecutor has now opened an investigation into some of those potential data leaks. and those individuals that believe that they was spied on who had their phones checked and verify that they have this spite software on that. and in that least across will, there are some 50000 numbers that have been revealed just in this database leak. but that could just be one small portion of the number that are truly been infected by the spice software. now that includes that $50000.00 list includes 13 heads of states including the president of south africa, president manuel mac and also the prime minister old pakistan. but on top of that, there are military heads of defense. they're all too much foods he for countries.

so this is a real, huge leak and a huge scandal of individuals that apparently have been spied on for the last several years now. and i so which is the group behind the developing of the software, maintain the idea that this software is not being used maliciously by state active enter. so group family denies false claims made in your report, many of which are uncorroborated theories that raise serious doubts about the reliability of your sources is what is the basis of your story? and if so, group has also stated that president and manual my goal is as far as it's aware, not a tall gauge of customers. people that it's sold this software to, even though his number appears on the list, it says that he's moving ticketed that he was selected for surveillance. but you could imagine there will be a lot of concerned individuals heads of state journalists, human rights activists,

as more and more details about this data lake and who exactly has been targeted for this spice surveillance software is revealed. they're branded as the global war on terror sunglasses with a marketing ploy by the show manufacturer. oakley, has created an army of angry us veterans. the issue centers on a ribbon, on the rim of each pair, representing the metal us soldiers receive. the problem is they got the colors wrong. to make matters worse, the metal itself is seen by some is nothing more than the equivalent of a participation trophy, given alpha, simply joining the military. and we spoke to a former us marine sergeant who feels vets being exploited for commercial gain. veterans are constantly being taken advantage of. and $250.00 oakley. glasses are just one really dumb, petty example. sadly,

to the extent that we have a militarist paradigm in the united states, there was also, there will always be a market for these kinds of, you know, crap products or the whole of exploitation claims come made growing. alarm over the problem is that veterans do face day to day. the latest data shows an increase in the suicide rate of vets, which is one and a half times higher than among civilians. with 18 to 34 year olds, particularly vulnerable. and it's toward those figures may even be larger as the study doesn't get take into account the impact of the pandemic. atom cash again believes that government ignores the basic needs of veterans. it's not a challenge to get people to recognize that you served it's challenge to get people to care about the bigger problems and the fact that better ends commit suicide rate of $22.00 per day, more proportionally than the general population. and the v a is more interested in

pushing pharmaceuticals that have suicide listed a side effect. then actually effective treatments for p t. s. d, and other things experienced by veterans homelessness, unemployment, all of the challenges that go along what the government does. by contrast, the u. s federal government spent $86000000.00 on housing for illegal immigrants, and 0 for homeless veterans. and this lab in the faith from oakley sunglasses is just little bit of icing on the cake. the corruption trial of south africa is for my president, jacob zoom has resumed his jailing last week, spock the worst violence seen in the country for decades. the head of the zulu nation, south africa, the largest ethnic group told us the reason don rest on looting came as no surprise . we see a country that has so much going for it. been destroyed completely. because my

view is that what is happening now actually should no surprise us because this country was a radio and it's nice grosinger reason, john state because because of the mismanagement of the economy by the government, every striking sort of you can every strike that is to envision so because now or is newton. this is what is heavily now. in a smaller scale, haven't you stand is the approaches we can calculate you purchased, but they don't end up, you know, just for testing. they didn't route and they're doing good already. nice, good. but it came from the policies of the agency who said the country must be made and governor, or the former president, jacob's whom i was sentenced to 15 months in prison for contempt of court after refusing to appear before judicial inquiry and investigating corruption during his

9 year rule, the protests that followed resulted in more than $200.00 deaths and 2000. the rest of many communities are still reeling from the violence facing dia, food shortages with local shops and warehouses, just ransacked and fall asleep. fall that this report from the region we tracking along the indian ocean coast sine wave. lots of town has been isolated and have received no relief for days. the votes have been closed and the trucks with the usual supplies have not been able to reach them. the shops themselves have either been lucid or close. got that because the odors offer that they could be ransacked in the coming days. the i

now can, you can see a close to the we house that has been completely muted and burned down. all the concrete steel slabs has been melted down in the fire. that was like, today's the 1st day that one or 2 shop in the town had opened. most people are still staying at home. and as you can see, the shocked all bordered clothes. people are afraid amongst rumors that the violence is going to event anytime again. at the moment, i'm so sorry, because safety, it's still not safe. good. what's going on that this will danger. so we just are trying to do a little bit of the commitment here is one of the 1st shops to open, but it's owners. i hid is still assessing the damage. he says he was lucky to escape with his life intact. the been everything in the shop. it was a single day to read, love everything for me to the noise. can you tell even

better, but to not get this dog? my shop is on the you can see the deals said holding that just by yesterday and we now on the time of if you which has also be completely lifted. where accompanying a shop. oh no. who hasn't been able to reach the town since divine and started this is the 1st time i walked in the shop. i'm totally shocked to absolutely devastated something that we never did of. it's quite said and we're going to see if everything's been taken out. you've talked me look in about 3000000 or what have stuck has been looters. i do. they expect it to be bad, but this is like 2 of us. absolutely. so as you can see,

there is security in front of this supermarket. the only reason that the supermarket survived is actually what a god sleeping inside at the time they suffer on the crowd. and for that reason, people ran away from both this town and surrounding areas have come here because it's only place that they can get food. i came to buy the groceries because my children are very hungry. there is no food in the house because. 1 we only, i hope is only this shop now if they're gonna break the shop. 1 shop here, i don't know. what can i do now? if i'm in the past few days has left an estimated 2000000 south africans unemployed . as it is, a country already faces a huge problem of these people viewing for days they haven't eaten. and many of them are afraid that the violence from over so there's a lot of panic buying happening right now. on the tip of the african continent

policy, a r t on an account south coast. and paula continues to fall reports from the region there in south africa, you can find them at auto, dot com for the meantime. we are back with more of your stories in about half an hour. the driven by dreamer shapes by those in me dares thing. we dare to ask me

ah, i am kaiser. this is the kaiser report, you know, we ventured a new era, an era of confusion about deflation is giving way to a new era about confusion of inflation. alrighty, let's get into a stacy. yes, it's becoming a highly politicized sort of event, whether or not we want inflation and how much inflation and this inflation is good . but one thing you and i have said is that, you know, the seventy's are back. we started to warn about that stagflation sort of thing, inflation and prices, and of goods and services, and decline in employment number. so arise and unemployment. well, today's covering new york city sex workers ramping and open air prostitute.
