Some of them are in dire condition. This the waste is that some of these arriving with children that are so weak and even stated at the hands of their parents for it. So if some of them are dropped the say to the, in the hands of the interest cost stuff, all right. Volunteer the you and Refugee Agency believes that the number of people arriving could rise to 120000 in the next few days, which matches the estimated population of the break away region. Going forward, id be thought of, i would work, wed be putting, suiting that people left behind out of care of we had been planning for equations to be a longer process. They like ways on these, we have gone very, very fast, very high numbers of people. But us, every sort of that many people become instructed, the 10s of thousands of refugees need to be moved to suicide, collect invitation for winter sets in. Moreover, this fee is that some hospitals may soon run out of resources. Huge tasks, fly ahead for media. In the upcoming days and weeks we spoke to rob butler from the world health organization, who was that they are median border with azerbaijan. Earlier in the day, he told us about the refugees most urgent needs. Well, the 98000 this week just to 8 pm local time, the 98000 refugees that have now crossed his board. I have incredible needs a chronic disease. Patients to need medicines that need treatments. We have mounted nutrition most maybe most concerning the amongst the elderly and the very young uh we have us with suspect situation in terms of the vaccination status of the refugees coming. We dont have vaccination records, so were unsure of what scale of, of explanation response is. Going to have to be delivered on the local Health Services understandable in a small village weve just seen from your images, from a small town like doris, overwhelmed as of a social services. But as your reports are quite right, the said harvard tons of our events and nights with a sense of incredible solidarity from the local communities. People opening that homes, Community Centers to provide accommodations under remarkable coming together of the, of the all my name population. So that was rob butler from the w h o over to new york now where the skies have opened, dropping so much rain in just a few hours that much of the city has come to a standstill. The deluge has forced parts of the subway system to close bosses and flights are also delayed. There are also reports of people abandoning their cars to escape slash flooding. Authorities of called the storm life threatening and declared a state of emergency. Dw correspondent, and boston. Hardship has been out all day in new york city and he gave us this update. Well, how it looks like the worst is over, at least for the 5 boroughs of new york city. That doesnt mean that this storm is over. So for the north of the city and also further east out to long island, there is more rain. So for all the people who need to make that commute tonight. So need to go home. We need to go out east long island somewhere. Theyre going to be in for a rough ride. Theyre going to need a lot of patients that have instead, i think that goes for everybody who wants to get anywhere in the city. Tonight. I just spent the last few hours on the subway. I went down to brooklyn to see what the situation is like there because it was really bad there this morning. This is a dirty that would usually take me maybe an hour. It took me closer to 3. Today. A lot of the subways are running. Its very hard to predict what so boys are running, which stops theyre actually going to make. So that changes by the minute it feels like and then uh, and the traffic is also really bad. So on the way back, i was also stuck on the subway. Its never fun, its never a fun experience to be on a new york city subway during rush hour. But on the day like this is particularly bad. All the subways are packed, the few that are running. Its hot, its you made. People are on edge after a long day at work trying to get home. So thats the situation as it is here and everybody hopes that tomorrow saturday is gonna be easier. Its gonna be a better day. Yes, hopefully it will clear up to a certain extent is this kind of flooding common in new york. But at least it feels like its getting more and more common. Just if you look at the last few weeks we have this storm right now, which is where in atlantic storm thats coming in with a lot of moisture is coinciding with the moist air. That ophelia left. Uh that was a storm that hit uh, North Carolina Tropical Storm, hit North Carolina just last week. We got the remnants of that here. Brought a lot of rain. So now and it together with that atlantic storm. And i brought this rain fall. This deluge today also then 2 weeks ago we had hurricane lead that pass up because it didnt hit new york, but then it made landfall as a Tropical Storm in canada. Thats pretty rare. So we have a lot of storms to 2 years ago. We had a Hurricane Ida or the remnants of Hurricane Ida that came up from the gulf that brought a lot of rain and that actually killed 13 people in new york city. So, and the reason why were getting all these storms here and not only here, but in many parts of the world, or of course, the warming sees the warm or the water, the more moisture the stores can gobble up and then that they dump all the moisture in the form of rain when they hit land, in this case, new york city dw bashing hard to new york. Thanks so much for all of your insights and make sure that you stay dry. Thank you. Heres a ryans up of some other stories making headlines around the wild. Ukraine is commemorating the 80 seconds anniversary of one of the largest mass murderers of jews in the holocaust. Around 74000 people, mostly jews, were killed at the bobby ravine outside nazi occupied. Keith, president the landscape joined thousands of others paying their respects in the capital, or at least 57. 00 people have been killed in 2 separate suicide bomb attacks and pockets done. The 1st blast and the country side, the west heads of procession, marking the birth of the islamic prophet mohammed, killing 52 people. 5 more were killed in a mosque in the northwest. No group has claimed responsibility so far. Las vegas police have charged a man with the 1996 murder of rock legend to pay extra cor. Dwayne coffee g davis had previously admitted that he was in the cadillac from which the fatal gunfire came. The unsolved case has long, frustrated investigators and fascinated the public in the us, the house of representatives has rejected a bill to temporarily funds the government making a shot done highly likely, which could have consequences that reached far beyond us shores. Divisions between House Republicans and democrats on spending costs, aid to ukraine and border protection, are hindering efforts to get even a temporary funding solution off the ground. And the countrys most prominent republican is urging his colleagues to let the shut down happen until Congress Approves new funding. The federal government wont be able to continue fulfilling various functions. But remember that the u. S. Government is a nations largest employer. Over 2000000 federal thousands could be very upset from health. Its a little over a week since president loading years. The landscape came to washington to rally more support for his country. And the immediate term is ukraine remains protected even in the shut down. But that spending on ukraine has become a Sticking Point in these negotiations means the lensky, you may need to worry about future support. And thats a big concern because you already see the republican congressman disputing how much money the Us Government is spending. Supposing ukraines efforts in defending himself against a russian station. The already questions being asked, and that being made part of the debate on the Government Shutdown and whether the republicans allow of the democrats deposit budget. So you, its not just a direct hit from the Government Shutdown so you can spend things spending. But the question of your credit spending is it was the same whether or not we havent government shut down and how long us. But the good news is the us is no stranger to shut downs. And sooner or later, the result, the forces that one, the forces shut down, tend to be very adamant at the very beginning. But then as time goes on and the nation gets annoyed about whats going on, they find that its harder to maintain their fervor and then theyll eventually look for compromise. I would tell our allies and partners, this is not something new, or political processes are not working very well. But what needs to be judged is what comes out the other end. But what exactly comes out on the other end and how long its going to take to get there, remain the crucial open questions and to shut down. And it wont just be the american people, but ukraine and us allies across the atlantic. That will be waiting for answers to the kremlin and has tasked a Top Commander of the Wagner Mercenary group with setting up volunteer units to fight and ukraine. Russian president vladimir preach and met with former senior officer andre troy shift who played their leading role in the wagner group. It comes a month after the mysterious death of former wagner leader. Yes. Can you prove goshen who led a short lived mutiny against moscow . The military draft has been unpopular in russia. Im so any increase in the number of wagner and mercenaries on the ground could ease the pressure on clint scripts. Earlier my colleagues, colleague brandt golf, spoke to sean mc fate. An expert on Foreign Policy and mercenary groups with the National Defense university in washington, d. C. He asked him where the wagner group stands after precautions death. The group is still intact, but its scattered and in disarray. And the mission of troy said, is to command it, but for directly, for putting on a very short leech. And thats what choice travis going to try to do. But what you can do is another question. So what can he do as well . The wagner group is split actually into 2 groups. Theres an old guard in new guard. Now the new guard, or all those ex convicts dump out a russian jails a year ago and sent to fight in ukraine as a but stalling grad. And that is, thats the easy part choice of those new. Those new guard had been absorbed into the russian military. And troy shabbat is going to be there commander. And hes going to be sitting in the Ministry Defense as a contractor. And theres not much those guys can do. There are basically cannon fodder. But the old guard which a Higher Quality mercenaries on africa, thats what progression always kept as best mercenaries as theyre kind of out of reach. So because even of the most out can reach them in molly or sudan, or because you know, fast, so they can just disappear into the congo and become freelance mercenaries. So theres a big question about the old guard that was showing mac faith, an aspect on Foreign Policy and mastery groups with the National Defense university in washington, dc. And heres a reminder of our top story that weve been following. This our as the un has said, it will take up either by johns offer to send admission to new garner car, back to assess humanitarian needs a mid the mass exodus their business.
