the, the, this is the, the news coming to live from berlin, ukraine limits, passport renewals for military age man living abroad. he says it's a temporary measure to get more men back home as the military bases, manpower shortage. it's. but the move provokes anger and long lines that ukrainian consulates in europe. also coming up. the situation has been di, if you can just see behind me the amount of destruction deadly flooding in kenya, killed more than 50 people and wiped out entire neighborhoods. and more rain is forecast in the days to come plus student demonstrations against israel's war and

gaza spread across the u. s. police arrest hundreds of protesters. the citizens trigger a national debate over free speech and campus say the hello i'm terry martin. thanks for joining us. ukraine has stopped issuing new passports to some military age men living abroad. it's part of the bid to pressure them to return home to fight. the move is temporary and comes the day after the ukrainian foreign minister suspended consular surfaces for men between the ages of $18.60 wall. lots formed a passport offices and european countries after foreign minister demitra clay, but announced the measures the limits come shortly after you crane adopted

a new stricter mobilization policy to shore up forces a mid gains by russia on the battlefield. spell your i spoke to dw correspondent carolina. sure. more into you. i asked her what this new mobilization law means for you, craniums living abroad. this is especially tragic terry, for man, between 18 and 60 years old to our living abroad and want to renew their passports . and there are hundreds of this man, for example, in poland, who has been already queuing up in front of the consulates, trying to renew their passports. they cannot do any kind of paper works at ukrainian consulates, but only the process to come back home. and this has been highly criticized here in and t of also by members of the parliament saying that this has not been discussed during the whole progress and procedure of the mobilization law. as some members of parliament are members of the committee of national security. even want to call in

members of the administer empowering affairs to ask them to explain this issue. because this had apparently not been this cause and it seems to be a res on that might not even be legal. what does this mobilization say about how the war is going for ukraine? carolyn terry already mentioned that the ukraine needs manpower. they need more man on the frontlines. it's not only weapons, it's also about soldiers a, the, she's a, the sieve of the army said that they need at least $215000.00 more soldiers at the front line. and also we know that russian troops out number ukraine in troops, but up to 10 times this means that every ukrainians soldier and that there are at least 10 russian soldiers. so this already shows that russia has a significant advantage on this field. catalina, thank you very much. those are correspond currently that you more in keith?

well, us present, joe biden has signed a bill into law authorizing millions of dollars and military aid for ukraine. a day earlier, lawmakers gave the final green light to the $61000000000.00 package ending a months long stand off in congress by them. so supplies will soon be on their way . i'm making sure the shipments start right away. next few hours really be 2 hours from equipment to ukraine, for air, defense, munitions, for artillery, for rock assistance and armor vehicles. now this package is literally an invest, not only in your brand new credit, but in your, in our own security. while the 1st official shipment of fresh aid is set to arrive in the next hours and days, us officials have confirmed that ukraine has begun using a long range missile secretly shift in recent weeks. as part of the previous

a package. they say the missiles were used for the 1st time in a strike on a russian airfield in crimea. last week. the army tactical missile systems were part of a $300000000.00 assistance package approved by the united states in march. the us supplied mid range versions of the system. last september. this latest batch can stride targets up to 300 kilometers away. now to a natural disaster unfolding and can you read cross officials say the death toll has risen to 50 after weeks of flooding across the country, torrential rains have brought the capital city nairobi to a standstill. the commuter train service there has been suspended. a major roads are blocked, entire neighborhoods are under water and thousands for flood their homes to seek shelter. as the weeks,

relentless downpours have caused misery and narrow b. rescue teams have managed to move some residents to safety. me and my do doesn't arrive. and my brother who on top of on top of the getting my g, i'm from morning who did live in b. m. in the cities, poor neighborhoods. high water had devastating effect. material used to build shelter, washed away by the flood. was suffering. i need to sell them to take that thing. so i'm go where they go and we don't know. we have to begin. we need food to feed our children and clothes to we are utensils are washed away homes filled with mud

t lucky some people, even most it was we stranded and don't know what to do next. we desperately need help authorities or warning residents of heavy to very heavy rainfall made worse by an el nino weather pattern all the way until may with rain and thunder storms, forecast to continue through the weekend. nairobi floods are likely to get even worse. are corresponded. felix the ring. a gave us the latest on the situation in nairobi. the situation has been di, if you can just see behind me the amount of destruction that's taking place in the last 2 days. houses came down and people are trying to solve aids. whatever is remaining parts of the household, you can see some people actually,

even the food was destroyed and a lot of destruction has been taking place and the rescue efforts have been going on this morning. one key does just been found dead down the stream and it's just been devised fixing the last few days. how is the government dealing with this emergency? felix do? does the government have the resources it needs to cope with this and help the people of the uh, there has been a multi, i didn't see response to you by the government red cross. and all of them are going on with the rescue efforts. yesterday. president william brutal convened a meeting with. busy what is the address he's take what it does, and that's the military to step in to help with the rescue efforts. but it's, it's been, the government has been accused of coming to let into the policy. and people, i say, had the governments coming that it would be the idea probably these amount of destruction

could not have taken place. east may come in, her mind can just show you this other side. it has just been very diverse between you could, you can see some of the walls. that's why shielding the houses had been destroyed and people are just trying to see what, what can be done if you see on the front end. uh there are uh fences to some of the houses and what had actually gone to half of the houses. so it's been crazy and people are saying, how does the government coming in puts time, then some of this destruction would not have taken place. so i, they feel more to be done by the government. the president has called in. i'm going to address here as far as team and they are hoping to ensure that this damage does not continue just very briefly. what's the weather forecast? felix? is there any relief inside there's not a lift inside and um, the full cost of the thing basically. and so we'll continue to the month of may. so

there's still much more that needs to be done. uh several people have asked have been asked to leave that areas and if i q it's to higher ground so that they will not be victims of the flooding that has been taking place in the country. felix, thank you very much for your reporting. that was the w, as felix maureen. go there on the outskirts of my robe. extreme weather events elsewhere to hundreds of millions of people across south se asia are facing soaring temperatures and drought. as a heat wave grips the region, dozens have been killed by a heat stroke in thailand alone. authorities and the capital bank off or warning their citizens of the extremely dangerous conditions. schools have been closed in the philippines and bangladesh for tens of millions of children. in the daytime temperatures of myanmar reached nearly 46 degrees celsius. the un has worn the desk due to each stroke were widely under reported calling heat,

a silent killer. let's cross over to bangkok now and speak with journalist jacob goldberg, jacob, the, you're right in the middle of this heat way with temperatures, about 40 degrees celsius and high humidity. what's that like? it's been unbearable to be outside. it's incredibly high and the like you said, it can be the silent killer. you don't realize that you're in the midst of the heat waves, which the temperature is rising gradually. every day you don't know that you're suddenly in a dangerous situation until maybe you hear that the government is they should have warning about it and then that's, that's what the government has done so far. you should warnings to stay inside to stay hydrated. to stay safe. from from the sea wave. well that would appear to be what you are doing. how are other people in the tie capital bank are coping with these extreme temperatures. the,

the people want to stay inside. they want to stay in the air condition environments and for some people that's, that's doable. if you can afford to take a taxi to work, if you work in an air conditioned office, then that's probably part of part of your routine. and you'd probably want to change very much, but a lot of other people work outside people's run sewage stalls. people work in construction, a lot of people take public transportation and a lot of the buses here are not air condition. so for them there's a, they would have to make a drastic change to how to go about their daily routines, and some of them can't afford to do that. so it's, it's harder for some people, at least temperatures are dangerous for, for everyone. but uh, particularly for the children and elderly is there is there enough health available to these vulnerable populations to help so far as come mainly in the form of the government, the various departments of government issuing warnings and instructions on how to avoid huge stroke. each stroke is the, is the silence and where you mentioned earlier how to recognize the symptoms. for

instance, if someone is overheating, but not sweating, that could be a symptom of heat stroke. uh other other instructions like i, like i said, staying inside of the government is also been encouraging mosquito control because a mosquito activity can increase during he waves and people can get 2nd, maybe not be able to access health care as easily as in curtis. their warranty he waves, so it'd be, those are a few of the forms of support. so you're in bangkok, but this heat wave is affecting a much larger region. this is the 2nd year in a row to the southeast. asia has been hit by severe a severe heat wave. what for all the scientists, a climate change is playing in this extreme heat. jago, as yeah, there is a pretty solid consensus that this is the result of climate change. it's the results of, um, about a decade of every year being the highest uh then the one before the end of the record concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. and the easiest project is had particularly hard by that the glaciers and the mountainous parts of

asia are melting the various oceans and seas around insurance. how these days are becoming warmer or a satisfying leading to an predictable and extreme weather events. and, and also in, in low ends like, like thailand or like bank cox, this leads to, to the waves. so, and obviously thailand is, is not a country that's putting the, the most greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. so it's really up to the major polluters to look at what their activities are reaching here. jacobs. thank you very much for that. that was journalist jacob goldberg reporting from a very hot bank cock. thank you. now let's look at a couple of other stories in the headlines today. a secretary states entity blinking is called on the united states and china to manage their differences responsibly. he made the comments during talks in shanghai without cities,

communist party secretary, each engineering lincoln. we'll head to beijing on friday for talks with presentation things to the is really military service that has attacked thousands of targets in southern lebanon, belonging to the ran back militia, has bought in retaliation for rock expired for, for the border. israel's defense ministry your i've got on claims that half of as below, as commanders in the area have been killed in the latest round on friday. it's all turning to the war in garza. israel says it's moving ahead with plans for a ground defensive into a rafa despite international criticism. these really go claims that the bulk of, from us is remaining forces are hiding out in the southern guys and city, or over 1000000, internally displaced, cousins are now sheltering. the offensive continues. israel's response to the most terror attacks on is really towns on october 7th satellite images near rafa show

collections of tents that were not there. early of this month. media reports say israel has bought 40000 tents to accommodate those who will be forced to move once again when it begins. it's a salt, but this has yet to be officially confirmed. so there are reports of the say, the israel's now planning to carry out an offensive in rough. uh, some say it is going to begin in stage is so is, is real scaling back it's original plan for a full scale offensive or not. it's a question to put earlier to our correspondent in jerusalem the rebecca rivers. so that's very difficult to say is around not giving way exactly what they plan to do, but it is indeed all indications point to israel pushing ahead with its kind to offensive rafa they've said so themselves yesterday the is there any military concerns that the at least the 2 battalions to reserve battalions that were cooled up to prepare for this eminence offensive that they were indeed ready and they were

just waiting for a political green light. they're also reports yesterday that some very senior is ready. officials are in egypt to talk to their egyptian counterpart about this plan . defensive obviously, ref, reference proximity to the education board and makes it slightly different to some of the other offensive we've seen and goal is a sofa. and so they were reportedly there to discuss their plans with the additional socrates. so when you talk about this phased plan, that is what we're hearing. although, as i reiterate, i'll reiterate that we don't have confirmation from israel exactly what their plans um, but this is what we're hearing, that there is a kind of plan phase. we know that the us has been putting on pressure for weeks, particularly, but also others, including germany, to try to prevent the worst of a humanitarian catastrophe that would come with going in to integrate it into a rough or in a ground offensive with more than a 1000000 people sheltering there so, so it does certainly appear and that's what we're hearing. but this phased this

phase, it's, you know, plan phase offensive is to try to evacuate many of the civilians that are there, we're hearing that it could take some weeks. so though this offensive is to, to begin as long as we expected it could take some weeks yet, terry felt satellite images are circulating that show new tent encampments in southern gaza. with those tense rebecca, be enough to accommodate and evacuation of rafa as well. we think we're talking around about 40000 tents. that's because we've heard that israel has procured 40000 tens. they haven't given any acknowledgement or they haven't commented on whether or not these 10 cabins that we're seeing via the satellite imagery is, is they work. we're also getting reports that they're being erected by egyptians and the way, uh, but of course, you know, with the, the approval and the, you know,

coordination of the, as riley's so, you know, we're talking about 40010. so far, we're talking about a 1000000 more than a 1000000 people in rough a. um you, i'll leave you to do the math on that one. i don't think we're going to see a full evacuation of ruffled, but also we're getting a lot of reports on the ground that people civilians who are just exhausted from having move. sometimes up to 56 of the times as they gradually have come down the street from the north, big evacuated into various different positions. so they're just exhausted. and they simply, you know, we've heard so many people saying that a willing to just die and roster that they don't want to evacuate anymore. so we are hearing that this is going to be a slightly different offensive than the ones that we've seen. perhaps more targets in order to try to comply by those us and all the allied, the moms, the to not cause such a humanitarian catastrophe. and to try to keep civilian casualties teeth to a minimum. but as i say, you know, this could take some weeks. we are talking about moving a 1000000 people and just with are all going to go really remains to be same. terry

. rebecca, thank you very much. is always our correspond to rebecca rivers there in jerusalem . a warrant garza has least pro palestinian demonstrations and pro is really demonstrations in different parts of the world. pro palestinian protesters are camped out at university campuses across the us. now leaving administrators scrambling to respond some jewish students say the criticism of israel has veered into anti semitism and they feel unsafe. the protestors complained that heavy handed tactics are being used to crack down on free speech. hundreds of students have been arrested in several colleges, have closed their campuses. that message for the speaker of the house was clear. as mike johnson visited columbia compass in new york, his thoughts on the protest as well, also unequivocal my message to the students inside the encampment. if you go back

to class and stop the nonsense there, look, if we want to have a debate on campus about the merits of these things. let's do that. but you can't intimidate your, your fellow students and make them stay home for class. think about that, is that right? do you think that's right? stop wasting your parents money. congressman lawler says, i think that's right. the pressure on the schools administration over is handling of the protests is intensifying with many, including speaker johnson, calling for the president to resign. i will say that the administration has done just about everything possibly wrong. it can do so far. and every single moves they've made has only made things, was the worst of all being calling police on peaceful, perfect pro testers who are mostly undergraduates of 18. 1920 as old demonstrators have been given until friday to dispatch the fall, the police will be called in. but despite demands to call up the protests,

students remain committed to the calls and supported by faculty. today marks one week since our 1st encampment on the south lawn, which was literally dismantled by n y p. d at the direction of columbia a columbia university. after approximately 34 hours, our demands are the state divest, disclosed and, and the c for all. i think it's just been wonderful. the students have been very peaceful. they're very committed young people who are anti war, anti violence, and pro palestinian liberation, columbia notified students that classes and exams for the rest of the semester, but will be offered online. bringing a turbulent into the academic year. now to russia's core gun region where people have been dealing with weeks of unprecedented flooding, that's forced thousands from their homes. now that could be facing

a new danger. russian. environmentalists are raising the alarm over potential radioactive leak. the source is the bro bought in the uranium mines located near oregon, on the russian cause a border. the mine contains over $7000.00 tons of uranium and is in the path of rising flood. waters. flooding means is possible that radioactive material could poison rivers and fresh water sources in the region. andre also rosky is a nuclear waste expert from the russian socio ecological union. i asked him a short while ago to tell us more about the public health hazard from uranium mine of the wells. what are you doing? them comes on the surface, overlay, the underwater, they use it, sort of the bottom of the russian stage. you play monopoly. uh, one of our divisions, schools, belgium, they use

a really cheap but very harmful to an environment. the use of extraction, your revenue. it's in size, huge legion. so they make uranium solutions liquid underground in the, in the, in the, they don't create mines, they do wells. so it looks like the oil, uh, extraction facility. what's the extraction of toil, but liquid solutions of your in your why it's dangerous. good is that they part of the uranium reserve, which is already down there. what are these tart extraction in named age if during the soviet union time and a lot of of you release product uranium extraction. now the, the russian nuclear energy agency rosa tom says that small amounts of uranium in drinking water are on problem magic and they're accusing the population of radio

phobia is, is the issue being down play. do you think by the government as well as you know, the most out to him was a part of the russian government. it's a state corporation. so whatever they say the, the governmental control must media, will repeat as market if monkey comes to um the, the effects are the concentration of dangerous uranium faults in the water of tumble river, which is used as a drinking bree before regarding for the capital of the proteins increased, it is not the levels which bring you to death immediately. of course not. but the collect, given those, all the people who use his drinking water will definitely be increased. and if the collective deal is increased time of those people who will get a reactive or reasons, insights bill gets problems with the house, but how it works. andre, thank you very much for talking with us today. that was andre. i'll show ruskie
