9:02 pm
the colossal flow cloud to towering hundreds of meters into the sky. the waste incineration facilities right next to downtown lay, the cruise and over 160000 people live in the city. i spoke to some who told me they would genuinely frightened by this explosion. and the potential for what the aftermath could have brought back is it was terrible. i was very scared. i live nearby and i could see everything from my balcony. my windows were rattling from the bluff at the start. that was incredibly frightened. then i saw the white glove at 1st. i thought it was a tornado. i was worried. we'll leave here. we know what they make and store here. and there are dangerous chemicals on site, and it was about $945.00. we were in our apartment when we heard a lot extremely loud bangs, which it was a container being dropped from a nearby construction side. and people came out of the store here. everyone was very concerned. yeah. first we didn't see anything,
9:03 pm
but just 10 minutes later there was a huge cloud towering over the town. i saw the cloud moving away from the city, so that made me less worried. that the less we took precautions, shut our windows and doors and all other common sense measures. while initial testing is showing no elevated levels of pollution in the air, checks will continue on samples from air lands and even rainwater falling from clouds in contact with the smoke. according to the state environmental agency, there is no longer any pollution of the year. we have sued, precipitate in different parts of the city. the state environmental agency took samples on our behalf, took samples there to be evaluated. the results are not yet available until then we have already said applies, do not eat anything that is covered and suit and ensure that what is already on the floor has not moved. then we are relatively safe. as a precaution, we have closed the playground and the effected part of the city holy particles
9:04 pm
about the size of the euro coin being deposited on some nearby neighborhoods. the strict rules remain in place on what you must not do until samples can be thoroughly examined. and tested to see if that dangerous leader of the state of north ryan with follies and men in the running to the next chancellor of germany, arm and lush. it has expressed his condolences to the families of the killed and praise the heroism of rescue workers. it's just a couple of weeks since the state of the west of germany was among the areas battered by lisa flooding. one of the big tuft now is to make sure that there is no long lasting effect from this tragic disaster post here in the immediate area. further afield, feature all of a r t lay the cruise in western germany. a cool as a revoke student, assaulted your citizenship saying his original application contained mistakes and
9:05 pm
that he never actually paid the fee. and so i was just currently in jail awaiting a decision on a us expedition request and 20 on team police, extricated him from ecuador, and embassy in london, where he claimed asylum. we spoke to his lawyer who says that could with decision district over citizenship is illegal because the name of this was developing according to a pre plan scenario. after astonished, lost his diplomatic asylum, former ecuador, imprison lenny moreno needed to somehow justify the invasion of british police at the embassy. and the only possibility, he was just to deprive julian, this orange of ecuador in citizenship, which is against ecuador in legislation. so it would be a good organ, foreign ministry council of san jose naturalization, so that the bridge is police could enter the embassy. they needed to show that he was not in ecuador, in citizen at the time. since the ecuadorian constitution prohibits the extradition of its citizens to a 3rd country, this was deliberately wrong, a legal, unjust, and country to the constitution and human rights. they simply followed this
9:06 pm
unworthy scenario they, by exposing ecuador in the extremely unfavorable light. the tron against the thorns is a political one. not only that in the decision to revoke us on just citizenship, they rely solely on report verified by a former state official who's currently accused of corruption, an atrocities underway against the state. 6 of the take your lympics, the prussia is rising. russian 20 starting unlimited. f lashed out of the questions during a press conference if you was unwarranted and inappropriate right off the latest when the next year. if you keep the story, he would think that the olympic games to something only about sports where the athletes have been preparing for all their lives to take part in this ultimate event for many athletes across the world. but this time, it's starting very political. every time an athlete from russia is appearing at a press conference or after winning a medal a he or she is being tested with questions about the doping scandals of the past
9:07 pm
and about why russia is allowed to participate in the olympics at all. so was the case of worlds, number 2 in china than you, me the idea who just won his game and unbearably hot conditions. it was very humid and very, very hot on the court. he almost collapse at one point even, and the questions were directed to him were not about the situation he faced on that court. but one journalist came over and asked whether. busy mitigate, felt that russia's participation in the olympics was cheating in itself. the video came up with a very sharp response. first time in my life, i'm not going to answer a question. you should be embarrassed of itself. i think you should wire him from the olympics. i don't want to see him again. the international tennis federation responded that it will lot ban this journalist that a journalist has the right to off questions. but speaking of the question, this is not the 1st time this is happening. as i said to athletes representing
9:08 pm
russia, media, just call it china also said the same that he's been tested with questions about the doping scandals of the past. and i'd like to remind you what that russia's participation in the tokyo olympics. this time is very much limited because of the doping scandals of the past because the world anti doping agency, effectively band russia and it's symbolic. strom taking part in major competitions across the planet for 4 years. russia won the appeal in the cost in the court for arbitration of sports, and thus the country was allowed to take part in the olympics under the name r o c. this is an acronym for the russian olympic committee, but even that name and full cannot be used. it's just r o c. and this is something that russian athletes and the russian elliptic committee have been observing since day one of the olympic games. even the opening rest conference at the tokyo olympics, it last about an hour 20 minutes long, 45 minutes of which was dedicated to russia's participation on
9:09 pm
a different name in the olympic games this time. and despite all that, despite all this pressure coming from all side, because not only kind of plant, but obviously the athletes and all other disciplines are being asked questions like that, trying to ignore them all the time. despite all that, russia or the r o c. if you may, is performing very well right now. it stands for and the overall metal stable nearing on its 20th metal in the olympics and day 6. and that is something that's many journalists, but sickly. those sports related not politics related, cannot avoid. and they note that russia is performing or the r o c is performing very well at the olympics. lot. so it wasn't the only reason some people focus is shifting away from the actual so forth of these games. teamviewer essays most decorated gymnast simone balls hit the headlines, withdrawing from the competition ahead of the file round use of mental health concern. yeah, i say put mental health 1st, because if you don't then you're not going to enjoy your sport and you're not going
9:10 pm
to succeed as much as you want to. so it's okay sometimes to even set out the big competition to focus on yourself because it shows how strong of a competitor and person that you really are rather than just battle through it. while said she started shaking hours before the competition prompting to tele coach, she couldn't carry on the final result in the same taking home silver teammates. another us for the sake of praise, bonds, courage are besides mental health. the games also thrown a spotlight on sexism in german females. your math, 16 chose full body units. instead of the more traditional bikini, leotard, the decision was made to portray the sexualization of athletes. a colleague, rory sushi, discuss increasing attention, being paid at the tokyo olympics. the non sporting issues with the panel of guess, whole issue of uniform and the sexualization of women has to go quite soon and it
9:11 pm
can be so very simply, he just say, here are the uniformed men and women, no different, obviously, to preserve modesty in swim where we have to little bit different here and there, but in the main women cricketers play in the same uniforms as mel cricketers as i do the same in football on all of the sports. exactly the same, quite agree that the germans have made a legitimate protest here. if they want to play performing unit charged, that's perfectly or i by may certainly some culture don't feel very comfortable wearing the kind of clothes that we consider normal. so we do a bit of a problem on the one hand, the olympics is designed to extol, abuse in the perfection of the human body operating at peak efficiency. so it's there to be admired. while the other hand, we have contributed lympics, who may feel uncomfortable with that being a limb, in particular, maybe there's a case for some element of choice, but at the same time,
9:12 pm
we don't want to lose the essence of what they're lympics is one of the biggest things about the atlantic to talent and your skills isn't actually and what you're judging are charging the uniform and what people don't realize this explanation of women when they can be very self conscious when wearing we're beating clothing, which my actually performance. so really, if we really care about the school and the reason that we should allow them to feel confident in what they are wearing, are you afraid perhaps that non sport issues or political ones in particular for example, that could become main talking points in the future olympics no, i'm not worried, i think is that i think is a great opportunity. we've seen so many changes already and i'm not worried. i still feel like eventually it will kind of not 5 down, but we will respect respect and i'm happy to different lympics. let's put it that way. it's an a everyone watching on tv and we're watching, you know, 68000 seat a stadium with every seat vacant. ca pretend i'm enjoying it as much as i do. other
9:13 pm
olympics i have to say, but you know, sports is to be enjoyed by everyone. and i suppose we have to content sells millions of viewers watching a tv all over the world. do you think political connotations and virtual signaling? perhaps according to some might, might take center stage and future olympics and should that be a concern? well, it should be concerned because we don't want to be just a vehicle for the latest 5 that comes along the olympic should represent social moles as they change, but in eastern preventive own century old brand, it needs to keep, continue to keep that wow, fight. so that we have when we see the olympics of it with their own specific procedures and, and, and habits and ways. and that's the beauty olympics, that's what we want to save. we don't want to make it too temporary to trans in. and just this way, for the same mental health issue of simone biles, she withdrew. i mean, this must be the very, very difficult decision for gigi think perhaps she's set an example. i'm guessing
9:14 pm
the balls is cognizant of a song experience and felt that her, her game wasn't exactly right to me. clearly she was way, way off her pig in the 1st couple of days of competition. and so she decided to pull out, i think a bit of an irony though, you know, rory here. the fact that she has withdrawn has bull further attention to her. i mean, if she's sort of quietly underperformed and, and perhaps explained to the media that she does, this is just one of those events. she can't be at her peak all the time and then quietly slipped away. fine. but she really has made an announcement him put mental health health back on the map. again. i think it's an important one that don't run away with the idea that i don't think this, but young people in sport today are subjected to the most intense pressure to
9:15 pm
perform at that time to come speak about the topic, especially with that with, with the whole thing about the mental issue is a topic has had such as the years and only recently are we talking to people with mental health? and i think they limited to the examples why not expect i really feel like you said, especially you can say they think they really try years and years and they carry the country on the shoulder. it's okay for her to be like, okay, i have mental health, i'm not gonna be. or if she can't do it now and pay for the young people that might be in the pressure than when, when else would be able to do it. the wide range of issues that are being now thrown up at these games. does it suggest perhaps that athletes concerns or any being taken seriously when it's too late? that raising a concern at a grand event like this? well, that's the way it gets more attention than anywhere else. i mean the, i think we need to keep our eye on what the lympics is about. it's supposed to be
9:16 pm
an event which comes along every 4 years, where the people who participate in oper paid both mentally and physically. i mean, the whole word olympians implies a level of a peak performance mentally and physically which is beyond most of the rest of us. so i think that if, if there are these issues we've been, if they were like early though the importance of mental health issue obviously shouldn't be underestimated about perhaps putting that on for lympics as well as press too much is a sporting event. it should be kept as a sporting events. if one is not ready for one really shouldn't be there. you can only find out sometimes, but you're not ready for it. when you're there already, in which case we have to respect, as in the case of been biles, she deserve it because it can be an easy decision. but her chicago man, laurie lightfoot, says she isn't sorry for the decision to given to use only to non white report is adding that as triggered a much needed debate. i would absolutely do it again. i'm in
9:17 pm
a paula jack about it because it's 3rd, a very important conversation that conversation that needed to happen. that should have happened a long time ago. american note in that media conferences are dominated by white reporters and it's high time outlets better reflect the makeup of american society is being sued or starts by reporting the data cooler. almost because the nazi argues that she's validating basic principles of freedom of the press. one is not the 1st time chicago's chicago mass come under fire for racial policies. last month, like for declared racism, a public health crisis and valves allocate nearly $10000000.00 of cobra relief money to improve the wellness of non what communities in chicago. the executive director of hyphenated america, christopher harris, democrats like to play the racial code to distract people from their own failures. woke agenda is nothing more than smoking mirrors is a smoke screen just to distract people from all the other things that are taking
9:18 pm
place. it's a poxy, we can just run on down the line and all the people out there, whether it's the elected officials like laurie lightfoot, or other people in the media who are out there trying to gin up race wars. and all that is a slight of hand to try to, to just to distract you from the things that are not working with their public policies. and look at the results. the black community or somebody say the african american community is one of the ones that suffers the most by continuing to vote for people like laurie lightfoot in for the party that she represents. because it just leads to more swirling around the toilet. that's essentially what ends up happening in the black community to some stop shots were on the well now starting with turkey were taurus were able to witness a giant smoke cloud rising over one of the beaches in on talia. wildfires causing it lead for neighborhoods being evacuated and rushes also battling forest foss. these scenes here from its northern region of
9:19 pm
korea. as you can see, it's blanketed with small g and has been for a week now. an area of over 150 square kilometers is affected with a state of emergency. the plant equivalent has strongly refuted claims for us president joe biden, that russia intends to interfere in the 2022 congress election. the russian president spokesman also said that moscow in washington can hardly be called partners to day. russia has never interfered in us electrical processes. the results of many investigations conducted in the u. s. confirm that russia certainly does not, and has no intention of meddling in any electoral processes in foreign states. if you haven't noticed, it's hardly possible to cold russia and the u. s. partners now rather there are opponents with whom we negotiate. i mean, it seems like never ending deja vu to be honest, we have another us election here and more baseless accusations of russian meddling
9:20 pm
. i mean, we heard from moscow, they outright rejected those claims because the only thing we have to go by with them is basically biden's word. i think we also need to take on the rapid disinformation. russia is doing already about the 2022 elections and misinformation to pure a violation of our sovereignty. barton was apparently given this information by the us intelligence community, as at his daily meeting. again, without any evidence that we know of at least it's being claimed that russia is intent on meddling and in the u. s. mid term elections that are going to take place next year. now, at that time, the entire house of representatives and a 3rd of the senate are going to be up for grabs. so that really makes you think, you know, it's going to take a lot for someone to see how radically rig elections on a scale like that. you know, but anyway, but also specifically called out president russian president vladimir putin. so let's take a listen to what he said. when i was with mister prudent, who has
9:21 pm
a real problem, he is sitting on top of an economy that has nuclear weapons and oils and nothing else. he knows, he knows he's in real trouble, which makes me more dangerous. my view is pretty weird. biden would say that though, because washington, i mean, has nearly the same amount of nuclear weapons as russia does, making it just as dangerous as moscow in that department. so why is russia in trouble? i mean, the, the entire situation really just seems like hostile rhetoric coming from across the atlantic. and it's very timely as well. because remember, just last month there was a summit between joe biden and vladimir putin and we discuss one is you ations with karen jonah, who was the senior advisor for the 2016 trump campaign. and journalist and commentator chadwick war. he's trying to get attention away from what crumbly, things happen in this country. if you want to talk about geopolitical adversaries. whereas china and i don't think many americans see russia as a threat,
9:22 pm
nor would they like to see russia as a threat. but of course, when, when is approval lighting new, poking up today, it's the lowest approval ratings of his presidency. so of course, he's deflecting and why not be reliable boogeyman from a cold war era and go back to russia. what's really interesting is, we don't know what is russian medley or interference. what is this misinformation campaign? and who decides what is real information and what is false information? anything that already does it like misinformation. and so if the, whether you're trying to rather just use whether you're trying to just join up the base, whether he's trying to put air for massive loss in 2022 and something to blame it on is unclear. it's bizarre rhetoric, there's no evidence, no one buying the rush or hopes anymore. i think this is coming from the fact that the democrats know that they are going to lose badly in the 2022 election because they don't have the right policies. so in order to win election,
9:23 pm
they either have to cheat steel. why or blame a foreign nation for whatever defeats they know they're that are coming their way in 2022. i think this is a precursor to try to do damage control. you have to remember in 2016, the democrats cried foul with regard to donald trump hurrying his place at the white house. whenever they lose election, it's throwing out these, these curve balls as to foreign intervention. the wes efforts in afghanistan were a failure, according to russia's defense minister. he was speaking at a meeting of the shanghai corporation organization which brings together military officials from your asian countries, including china and india. or do you live with her and her husband, keep them on the high profile gathering. i managed to speak exclusively to the minister himself where in the capital of to stand just to the north of again its
9:24 pm
stand where as a result of a swift pull out by the us led coalition, the crisis is deteriorating. day by day, the taliban is pretty much in control of the entire country, apart from the capital region, and this could easily spill over the border. now, as the russian minister of defense was meeting his counterparts from the neighboring countries here and do shon bear, he blamed the us for the situation that's getting increasingly dangerous for the hasty withdrawal of us and nato troops create lots of problems. we're aware of the ongoing robust work aimed at providing security on the border, which is currently a hotbed for many risks, threats and challenges. if you look at the map of again, if then you will see that it is surrounded by countries that are russian allies from 2 different blocks. one is made out of post, so the country and the other one is washes alliance with trying it together with
9:25 pm
some of the different neighbors. now, what moscow wants to do is to reassure its neighbors that it is ready to help at any time if the situation gets worse. moscow has a military base here and to just near to somebody that is ready for action at any time. the other thing that russia wants to do is to cement it's key role in the region, which doesn't make the us happy. as i've heard when i spoke exclusively to the head of the russian army here, induced and make sure plenty of mr. corby of the management of the u. s. withdrawal is kind of where everyone is taking place. indeed, some of the tiniest lee, the u. s. is holding talks with all the countries adjacent to afghanistan on establishing certain logistical hubs on the territories. it begs the question, what's the point of putting out well remaining on the border? the answer is obvious. it's an attempt to retain its position in the central asian region are to failing absolutely everything, and that's gonna start when it comes to instability after the u. s. give me at
9:26 pm
least one example where the situation has been improved after a long running us presence. now here's a fact for you when more than 25 years ago survey showing was the head of rushes, emergencies, ministry. he was in charge of an entire operation of rescuing refugees that were flowing out of gas stand beyond the soviet pull out. and also when the soviet union collapsed and the situation in afghanistan was deteriorating because of the stronger islamist groups in the country. now this is why the local ministers of defense and leaders praised survey shows whose role in starting up the current situation. one of the proposals that came from the russian ministers of defense was to intensify the drills between russia and its allies here. and the 1st part of these drills called peace mission will happen in september,
9:27 pm
and china is also going to take part in those of next going underground for those of you in the u. s. news, you've hughes, and that will set as you what's in the u. k. can cause a report in just a few minutes time, but i can often i will the latest join us again. me ah, the count down the next day as tor historic day in monetary history, that would be august 15th, 1971 the day that then president richard nixon closed the gold window, basically defaulting on america's obligations to great britain at the time. and
9:28 pm
since then we've had pure monetary chaos. the who's i'm actually going to see, we're going underground, exposing the truth, hidden by the elite, coming up in the show, a member of the bar, as johnson you can. government sage committee tells us why young adults may face a lifetime of ill health. from corona viruses, the global death toll had just towards 4 and a quarter 1000000 and is reconciliation to begin between the icpc acquitted neuro bank, beau and the ivory coast government cost struggled in sub saharan africa with the
9:29 pm
director of night. the kings, a new film to explore the social hierarchy of the biggest cocoa produces notorious mca prison. all this i'm all coming up in today's going underground. the 1st 3 u. k ended draconian covert measures last week, despite reportedly having one of the highest cove death rates in the world coated vaccines around the world appear to be helping to reduce the number hospitalisation . but we're still being told the pandemic is far from over. joining me now from murphy side is professor callum sample, a member of sage v scientific committee, advising berth, johnson's u. k. government, during the pandemic. callum, i don't show your speaking as an advisor to borrow johnson or callum sample. you can have to tell me, but we do know now the bar is drawn to the top advisor, dominant cummings said that the prime minister is understanding from the scientists as always be incurred with serious effects the over eighty's. that's been the main concern of the prime minister,
9:30 pm
reportedly. what is your latest study telling us about acute covered? so i'm a professor of medicine and child health, the university of liverpool and i get invited to tennis age meetings. the government senior advisors are chris with the and patrick browns and they choose the expert and their advice, and that's my role. i bring to that data from research studies i'm personally responsible for. so i have to take personal responsibility for the data on present . the, the reality is the cobra does not just the disease of the frail and elderly and we are seeing children a bit hostile and adult submitted hospital. the reality is the death mostly does occur in people over the age of 50 and far more and people label they just 75. it goes up exponentially buzzword very steeply as age gets all. but if you look at people damaged by covered even people as young as.
