A little kid to find evacuation orders to defend his home against a wall of flames we have a remarkable story of survival amid a street is worsening bushfire crisis. And Germanys Green Party celebrates its 40th anniversary how the former outsiders made it to the mainstream and became the 2nd strongest Political Force in the country. I dont welcome im under touchy my thank you very much for sharing this time with us. U. S. And canadian Officials Say its highly likely that an Iranian Missile a ukrainian passenger jet at the iran earlier this week canadas Prime Minister just introduces mounting evidence suggests an iranian surface to air missile hit the airliner shortly after takeoff but iran has rejected that claim all 176. 00 people on board most of them iranian and canadian were killed in the crash risk game just hours after iran launch an attack against u. S. Targets in neighboring iraq. Verified by 2 Media Outlets appears to show the plane exploding in the sky just seconds before it crashed western leaders say the evidence points towards an Iranian Missile. Scores of canadian nationals were killed in the crash. Prime minister Justin Trudeau attended a vigil in the capital ottawa earlier he announced what he believes brought down the plane. We have intelligence from multiple sources including our allies and our own intelligence. The evidence indicates that the plane was shot down by a rainy and a surface to air missile. This may well have been unintentional. This new information reinforces the need for a thorough investigation into this matter. U. S. Officials have told us media they have quote a high degree of certainty that it was a missile that hit the plane President Donald Trump echoed the theory that it might have been an accident but irans vehemently denies the theory that the plane was downed by knowing. That the thing that is clear to us and that we can say with certainty is that this plane was not hit by a missile. As i said last night the plane was on fire for one and a half minutes yes. Russian a flight shows that the pilot was attempting to return. To the Ukrainian International Airlines Flight was traveling from tehran to kiev with 176 people on board the boeing 737 crashed in good visibility just minutes after takeoff. Most of the victims were from iran many of them dual iranian canadian citizens due to take a connecting flight to canada. Western leaders are demanding full transparency from tehran the focus is now on the black box flight recorders they could hold the key to revealing the cost of the crash. Joining me now is the quartet hes a senior investigator and belling katz thats an investigative collective welcome make now yellow organizations verified the video clip allegedly showing the airplane being hit by something what exactly were you able to confirm. So we found this video yesterday it appears to show a missile impacting an object in the sky we worked out precisely where that video was taken and we noted the else use we believe but we worked out location of the explosion and its precisely in the flight path of the plane so we believe that the video shows a missile like to hitting the plane. Also pitches of myside fragments circulating on the internet what do they show and what do we know about the attend to city of those speeches so there are 2 images showing the heads of tall missiles with missiles. These have not been verified they do not appear to have been posted only has not previously. However we cannot work out precisely where these images were taken so they remain on birthright images ok there are also reports now that bulldozers on being used to clear the crash site what does the investigation show so we 1st started hearing these rumors yesterday. And this morning a news crew much to get to the scene and appears the crash site has been cleared needless to say that would not be beneficial for any kind of investigation that was carried out ok not the best on your evidence that youre going to as issue has a very defined uncollected what do you think happened to that plane. So currently the information makes me lean towards believing that this plane was in fact hit by a missile. We cannot confirm to any level of. Us but i think its also important to note that you or any authorities can be certain. That it was a technical malfunction. Yes so we have basically saying it is not not possible to say but it was definitively a missile strike nad look and it can go so they do not that the iranian version that it was a mechanical failure so we suddenly have a video that shows an explosion on the flight path of this plane which appears to be caused by a missile. Of course no one can be certain and so the investigation is complete however the information that we have thats available to us indicates this plane was a missile this new quote is from the Investigative Journalism collective that in cats thank you very much for that. And of course for the families of victims its really important to find out the cause of the crash that we now do and aviation expert Stephen Stephen the focus right now is on the blacks in black box inside the court is recovered from the crash site do we know its in a condition to be analyzed properly and if so what kind of information can we get from them. The black boxes have been recovered by the iranians already so there are photos of both of these devices. Being removed and then presented to the maid typically what happens is that theyre right by accident investigation all sources with the hardware specialization to be able to download all the promises will they be able to read the riot absolutely the material the way that they work is that they use effectively computer chips inside. I stainless steel box is pretty much indestructible and its a case of then taking these boxes to realistically a 3rd country so maybe somewhere like france where it can be plugged into a computer and then everything is downloaded. And see what the debris now if this plane was brought down by a missile surely there would be signs of explosive material on the debris of the plane exactly and these were some of the things that came to light off to the mh 17 shoot down which is the Malaysian Air line that was shot down over the ukraine a few years ago and the dodge accident investigation authorities were able to pinpoint where the missile flew up to where it detonated how it damages the aircraft and then how the aircraft was then brought down before it crashed so the physical evidence is what the ukrainian crash investigation tell you will be looking to secure and to then light as much information as possible during these early stages so i guess we just have to wait to see what the investigation reveals Stephen Wright an aviation expert thank you very much for that. Meanwhile in the u. S. The house of representatives has voted to limit President Donald Trumps ability to engage in military conflict against iran the chamber voted almost completely along party lines to pass a resolution it would become a binding if the senate or to supports it truong ordered the killing of the iranian gendron sincerely money last week without congressional approval the rising tensions in the middle east has prompted an emergency meeting of European Union Foreign Ministers in brussels later today theyre hoping to find a way to guide the u. S. And iran away from for the confrontation. Was 1st the assassination a few irans top general. Then iranian retaliation. In the deepening conflict between iran and the United States the European Union seems caught in the middle the country says deeply affects not only the region but all of us and the use of weapons must stop now to give space to dialogue talks seem to be the only feasible option here in brussels at the moment the european kind of dilemma is that they of course want to put additional pressure on iran but at the same time they dont want to side too openly with the United States thats the dilemma that the europeans are in this is what their politics looks like you know how do you find the magic formula that you know keeps you in that position that you know satisfies both both needs the e. U. Is clinging on to the 2050 nuclear deal signed by e. U. Countries france the u. K. And germany among others. The socalled j c p u a is supposed to prevent iran from developing Nuclear Weapons in return for the lifting of un sanctions. However u. S. President trump pulled out in 2018 he since re imposed sanctions. A move met with anger in tehran which in response has step by step produced its own commitments to the deal further limiting the use ability to weigh in on the issue. Was the only stake the europeans really had in the iran issue thats you know what made them important in the iran context and now thats out of the window plus the situation is escalating and they have no influence now so hope lies in this man mohamed sirleaf the Iranian Foreign minister hes been invited back to brussels in an attempt to bring iranians back to the table and negotiate a way out of the crisis. Now to some other stories making news around the world the Russian Military says a ceasefire has come into effect in syrias liberation situated in North Western syria it leaves the countrys last rebel stronghold the syrian governments push to retake the city has forced hundreds of thousands to flee towards the Turkish Border the ceasefire follows talks between turkey and russia earlier this week.

The leader of thailands opposition says hes been charged over an antigovernment rally he staged last month he founded the progressive future Forward Party and has denied the charges saying theyre politically motivated because of breaching a no on public gatherings find out registering the rally at least 24 hours in advance. Turning now to australia where people are bracing for more danger from the countrys bushfires with higher temperatures and stronger winds set to increase risk levels and. At least 2060 of them have died in the fires and more than 2000 homes have been destroyed despite this some toughest religions are choosing to risk their lives and fight the fires themselves. This is how jack last come spend the new year in a life or death fight against australias raging bushfires his only weapon a garden hose one man against a mega blank. Jack was born to leave but he was determined to defend his home and he did jack save his house and his life. Brian did the same his wife stayed with friends brian wanted to go it alone then the fire came. And everything was on for the tractor. And all the trees around for every one of the. Course of. His neighbors fled just in time the house now in ruins brian narrowly made it out alive the real they put before it right in the face laurel and then i can remember from brother in the front and then i had a foreign the veranda. For the truck to really put that up and you sit back and forwards all over it. You just really had to kick the guy you didnt have time to to be scared or a lot that you had to concentrate on what you were doing brians other neighbor phil also stayed behind the 2 defended their homes side by side. And one that really i mean in my short story you know tony coming over here. Did not talk to do much at all which. Is why youre. Still kicking. The fire burned everything in its path phil managed to capture the blaze on his phone as it came rolling towards him. He described as a monster a monster he fought with a garden hose. To externalize that took place about 2 thirds yes i thought that for. Trade now this. I think. That this is where. The australian survived a harrowing feat one that is deeply touched their lives during the war from what i know what tom. d and i ran around us or so i think yes yeah. So for. That my 1st. Brian and phil beat the odds but they do it again without a doubt they say but they also understand why many chose to flee. Joining me now is obviously now Business Editor benford sooner whos just returned from the street leah welcome ben such courage and resilience we saw there from those men in that report how common are these stories and people just stay back and defend their homes despite evacuation warnings you do hear from time to time people who stayed back and people who stayed back and died i mean its an extremely dangerous situation and as you know youve done the Fire Training the rule Fire Training in australia as a journalist base there so did i when you get the orders to leave youve got to get out of there its a really dangerous situation to decide to stay home and to try to fend off a fire with a garden hose exactly in the training suggest to defend your home and if not grab now this these fires have taken such a huge toll on people this man is the country but what about the wives life this is the interesting part i mean we occasionally see these cute and cuddly videos that are going viral of kangaroos hugging people and koalas climbing up cyclists bikes for a drink of water but the reality is. Its like opening the doors to hell one person told me a Wildlife Rescue of these animals a scared or aggressive cleaning the life in clambering and trying to do everything they can to get away from the fires and this one rescuer told me he could hear koalas screaming trying to rip out his eyes cloran at him snakes writhing on the ground because they inhofe buns. Kangaroos buds with singed fed is running around on the ground because they cant fly with their own feet and its an absolutely horrible situation and sure were talking about a couple dozen people who died which is horrible but the atta mills the wildlife were talking about a 1000000000 a 1000000000 which is an astonishing figure and you know for the tourists who want to come to australia to see a cute cuddly koala theyre going to really have to search for what gosh this is such a tragedy that to me at the moment the 1000. Sophistry loons have come out on the streets and theyve been protesting and making the link between these bushfires and Climate Change what do people that make off the governments handling of these specially the Prime Minister whos come in for a lot of criticism well theyre making that link between the fire as and Climate Change because the government isnt and the government is in a difficult position its trying to defend jobs in the coal industry which is one of its most Important Industries and its 2nd biggest export it is what has made a straight affluent but think about all those cop emissions from from coal. A stranger is a huge polluter per capita and a strange dont want to know that the government doesnt want to do that and the government does not want to change its policies on Climate Change so its going to be a real struggle here and people are getting extremely emotional about this and taking to the streets the government has been trying to ban climate protests but unsuccessfully.
