Ah, welcome to the news our a combust of mix of high temperatures on strong winds are combining to push Turkeys Wildlife Emergency towards a 2nd week. At least 8 people are known to have died. Many more have lost their homes, the fires tearing through forests near southern beach destinations. Its burning. Its obviously burning. Theres no plane, theres no helicopter. Theres no roads. How is this going to be extinguished . How are you sure that youre not fully be miserable right now . Were waiting for the village to burn. Our hands are tied to the soldiers made us a vacuum. The village, the women, everyone evacuated, the village is burning. So the main concern now are 7 fires in the coastal provinces of antalya and moga, as well as to sally, thats in the south east. And the European Union is sending help in the form of Water Bombing planes, while countries like ukraine, russia, as a Region And Iran are also stepping in to assist. Lets speak to restore sardar, hes my now got thats in antalya province. Russell. How dire is the situation where you are . Well, during we are now in the will. Of course not in the tone of mine. I got one of the worst hid district in turkey by wild fires here in these will as does 3 days ago. A married couple had been killed by the wild fires right at the house behind me. A german woman and her turkish husband had been killed by the wildfires. And they lived in the house for 20 years. And 60 of the 100 houses in these winters had been destroyed or heavily damaged and half of the people in the when it also how being forced to silly. The 1st Report of the Wire Fire came on wednesday from ontario. As soon after that there has been many of the similar reports coming from 35 different provinces. At 13532 locations. The government said that 125 of them are either completely extinguished or had been browed under the control. But there are 7 hot zones, active zones that the fire is still continued and the afford to take the fight under the control or on the way. So far, 8 people have been killed and hundreds of people have been hospitalized. Humbles of the houses also have been destroyed or heavily damaged. On the other hand, the international affords and solidarity also is just ramping out of russia, ukraine. You run another page on how already been in the fight against the fighting turkey, john today. And also they are standing more than 200. 00 firefighters to come and join in this fight against their fires. But European Union also there has been the statement coming from europe in union, which so far took he had ignored the cause from the european. But the high represent, you of European Union doesnt work. Also said that to 3 and 2 and 3 how to cope. Theres are also coming from creations to pain, to join. The 4th there in turkey is going through its worst with Forest Fires off. Its more than history now. Right. And whats been the Governments Response . They were saying officials were saying that they would launch an investigation into all of this. Where does that stand . Well, so far there is me, there was better not that much of the detail that has been explained or raised to the public. But present one just yesterday said that they are considering the possibility of a sub with hodge. And he says the intelligent Service Minister of interior and the Security Apprentice caught in a coordination and conducting this investigation. But so far that hasnt been any concrete evidence is being provided on the other hand, just never seen some of any was for Forest Fires and wildfires. Across toward the 5, the promises in the country is pushing to check his public to believe that that might be a subtle touch or an organized arson at tag behind is wildfires. But the Touch Expert says that there is that its very much possible that theres wildfires that are going across the country called a have been 3 good by the climate change and global warming. Yeah. Okay, and were going to speak about that next for the time being rest. Well thank you so much for giving us that update. So the heat driving turkeys fires is causing similar emergencies in Italy And Grease as well because still italian areas are on Katasha And Pess gotta have been engulfed in flames. And crews are saying that they faced more than 800 flare ups during the past few days. Wildfires destroying homes and farms and southern greece after breaking out near pat truss on saturday. Well, lets speak to Chandra Boucher whos the executive director of i force thats an international forum for Environment Sustainability and technology. And hes joining us by skype from new delhi. Thank you so much for speaking to us. So the fire is in the mediterranean, from what i understand are they do happen every year, but how worrying are the extent of the blazes this particular year . Well, its pretty bad, but you have to look at what has happened in the last 5 years in meridian 2070 was also wave bags for i beat in bed and you had massive products, fire being and or chicken, but it doesnt so beeping when he was back for greece, in fact, 2018 Grease Fire was considered one of the worst in the good about 100 people. And now, in 2021 you have, you know, dont d n d, which is the expediency for this file. What is quite clear is that these wildfires oddly get extreme temperature a longer period low level of Humidity And X and quite high into speed. And so there are conditions being created and i think conditions are so favorable for by fire that you are seeing all these incidents happening in the middle in the region. And all of them can now pretty much because link it to climate change because we now have predictions which is exactly predicts that these kinds of incidents happening in the metrics in, in region. Right. So that must be something that very worrying. I mean, were getting a, a sense of what impact climate change is going to have basically on the mediterranean, in the near future. Absolutely. If you look at developmental panel climate change reports the predict back from wendy could be on goods. Actually the Fire Season going to be good to 6 feet long. Good. Then what they used to be in 1969996990. And that is a prediction. But because you must understand both conditions that are happening now. So it is even more buddy that maybe the climate commodity under estimating the impact of climate change on Forest Fire in mediterranean. So these are very buddy what we are seeing on the screen in turkey. And if this is going to be a wake up call for policymakers, because you do need policy changes to fix this, dont you . Absolutely. I think we use wanting find that there across the was this the media had one of the largest, why fi . Think about it. Which is, you know, get it off, bought 6 to 9 months in a year you had widened fire, which ive got about 6000000 acres of land you had by your fire in canada and United States. You would be in india and youre all, you have the warning buying stuff for all of us to see. I think it is the best policy makers to recognize that theres pressure. Also, we need to put public by can also on policy makers to act because these are going to get worse. If we are not feed us about climate change, a case im going to get, well, we thank you so much, Chandra Bush on for giving us your expertise from india. Thank you. Was feeling the flames and the outlook for the weather. Lets bring in or Weather Presenter Jeff Harris and jeff, during we could be in the grips of one of the most severe heat waves we have seen in decades. So right off the bat, well start with a snapshot of temperatures on tuesday. You can see weve got some 40 is hanging around and there are bread, weather alerts in play for just how high these temperatures are. So were talking about italy and greece. We know both of those countries weve seen wildfires. And heres what were talking about. A plume of heat from africa has moved in. That is what is fueling all of this. And as i mentioned, it could be one of the most severe a heat waves weve seen since the 1980s. Ok. Now onto the wildfires. Italy Fire Service battled more than 800. 00 fires in the past 24 hours. So thats one country. Weve also got to focus on grease. We know its been bad there with the high temperatures. On tuesday, athens 43. Ill come back to that in a sec. Its important, so 56. 00 wildfires erupted within 24 hours in greece. So we talked about that 43. 00 degree temperature. Look at this, the August Record 42. 6. So on tuesday, our forecast is set for a new Record Temperature in athens. Greece ok, lets get to turkey and talk about whats going on there. Theres 3 major factors. Their crews are up against. The 1st is temperatures. Weve been talking about just how hot it is, how high these temperatures are. But the other factor is those winds, weve seen them whip up to 45 kilometers per hour. That is also fanning the flames and humidity. Another factor here, so 10 percent, thats a measure of the moisture in the atmosphere, so it is very dry. That is what we know, and for this reason, at that Rate Vegetation dries up and it adds fuel to the fire. So if we look ahead, what we can expect, look at this temperatures 40 degrees on tuesday, but there is a glimmer of hope here. As we look toward the weekend, temperatures will fall off actually below average, but were still dealing with gusty when. So firefighter is in the thick of it and theyve got a lot stacked against them. Jeff, thank you so much. While theres plenty more head on the algebra in our including asia pacific region, titans restrictions, once again, its coke with 1900 cases there continue to spiral. Also. Im come all the way to folio Recognition Campaign is underway. Ordered in order to enter the fraud register, the limping bosses investigate after an athlete breaks the rules with a protest on the podium. Ah, but 1st Israel Supreme Court is hearing appeals from for palestinian families against their forced expulsion from the sheriff and started off neighbourhood and occupied is jerusalem for 70 people. This is their last legal chance to prevent their force displacement. After living there for decades, dozens of other palestinians in the neighborhood are also under the threat of Force Expulsion to make way for is really settlers shifts that has been the scene of frequent correct down by is really forces against protesters without any exception. Thank eugene. Drum historical studies side a lot of them that have houses and wait for them. And buckeye, and because of the unjust know which is called action. You know, they can claim these houses back. Lets bring in hope that you joining us from West Jerusalem from that courthouse in fact. So this is just an appeal hearing, but it seems to be taking long, long time. Yes, indeed, we are actually in the 4th hour of this hearing. Now, we dont know all the details about whats happening inside. We have a little bit of information that trickle down the judge at the beginning of the session was trying to find a compromise between the 2 parties. So the 4 families and the settlers let the judge the judge had put forward under table as we understand it is that the families, the palestinian families, would find that that land belong to the settlers. In return, they would get long term rent, a guaranteed for a couple of generations to come. We do know that theres a certain point. The judge gave a break to took a break, telling the Defense Lawyer to speak with his plan to try to find out whether this compromise would be working or not. It was already something that had been on the table before. Well, the families have refused that to know. Now were back to the original plan, which is the Defense Lawyer put putting forward his argument on why they should be another appeal at the moment, all the venues for appeal for these families have been shut. Its only the Supreme Court who can say yes or no, they could have another appeal. How is the Defense Lawyer trying to did to do that is by putting forward some jo, damien documents that they had the obtain those virginians documents they back to 1967 and show clearly that at the time did your deal . Government Wasnt Charge of the land in ships and occupied jerusalem actually had started the old, the procedure to actually transfer the property of that land to the gd, those families right now. And that wasnt the lock in some instances of the transfer until the 967 war broke out. We still dont know what would be at the judges final decision either. Yes, you can go ahead with another piece or actually he could very well judge that this is not too late. Its too late to bring in new documents, and the eviction should go ahead. Ok, so that will stick to the later on. Thank you so much for that update. Now the president of ghani has told parliament the country is facing a state of aggression by taliban forces which are attacking several cities. He also repeated how his government has been surprised by how quickly us forces are withdrawing, saying much of the current situation is a result of this decision guy. And he said his government has a plan to bring things under control within 6 months, but he didnt go into detail data. But i can make a big kick clear plan has been prepared for the next 6 months and its implementation has begun to reach the state of establishment and reach the desired state again with your co operation, we will reach the desired situation again. While the past 24 hours, the Arm Group has moved in from the outskirts to the heart of major cities lashed, are gone in kandahar the situation laska gaz, particularly fragile. With the im group moving and closer to major government buildings. Theyve also been airstrikes and fighting, and hirata, and then go har in the east. Meanwhile, the United States says it will take in thousands more african refugees with us for the ation due to the increase in taliban violence. The expanded Refugee Program will include afghans who work for us funded projects and g o. Z and media outlets. With the taliban gaining more ground, the refugees say theyre getting increasingly worried about their safety. More than 200 afghan interpreters arrived in the u. S. On friday, well more enough story shortly with hydro castro, there she is from washington. But 1st lets cross over to cobble. Thats where a diploma to get her to james phases. So james, 1st of all, just bring us up to speed with the Security Situation and the gains that the taliban seem to be making on the ground. While clashes continue in kandahar the 2nd city going to san bic class or in the 3rd city herat. But still some fighting and in her province. We also understand it was a tell about an attack in the east 90 province, but i think our focus has to be on helmand province. The one thats the neighbor to kandahar down there in the south because that i think is by far the most significant story at the moment. Because what youve got right now in the provincial capital of laska guy, is the taliban right . In the heart of the provincial capital, they are mia the governors compound. They are near the police chiefs building. They are we told gone into the State Television Building in the heart of laska. This is, i think, the 1st time in 20 years since thats how i fell in 2001 to tell about and have had that the center of, of, of one of the provincial capitals in this way. And its gonna be very hard to dislodge them. For the security forces because theyre in buildings, theyre in houses. If they, if they can, government was to try strikes in that area, the bound to be huge civilian casualties. So what theyre going to have to do is send special forces in Street Fighting House to house the most difficult type of warfare. And clearly, i think therell be people watching this well beyond that kind of stuff. Because remember, some of the fear is this. This is battles evolving. International forces happened in helmand province. The u. S. Had a lot of troops that a lot of troops lost their lives. The u. K. Was the lead nation in how the province and of the 450. 00 british troops that died. And ive kind of saw many of them died in helmand, and i think therell be some watching whats going on now in health problems. Asking was all of that worth it . Yeah. And what about the president who was speaking to parliament earlier on . He didnt seem to offer much detail on how he planned to take my control, the country. Yeah, weve had 3 speeches for me after ive gone in the last week. All of them had been televised on nationwide tv and he certainly talking about the problems and the security problems. But hes not really talking much about the solutions that hes proposing. We have not heard a detailed plan of action. He says, this is 6 months, Security Plan was easy. We dont really know at this stage and i can tell you ive spoken to many members of the international community and diplomats here who are concerned. They believe the president really does need to set out a plan. Not only because he needs a plan in order to, to execute it, to solve the military problems on the ground. But also because they say the african people need to hear that he has a plan because morale is slumping. And there are many, even strong supporters of the president who currently have the view that perhaps the taliban have the upper hand may be winning. Ok, james base. Thank you so much for that update from campbell. So due to the increase until about violence, the United States is now say it will take more african refugees with us Affiliation Hydro castros joining us from washington d. C. So heidi, who exactly is going to qualify for Refugee Status under this newly announce program during this potentially opens up thousands more afghans to qualify. They are, as you said, people who have a u. S. Affiliation. That means they may have worked for N G O that received u. S. Government funding, other government groups, contractors, employees of those contractors and employees of us based media organizations then and all of their immediate family, not a specific number given by the State Department at this point, but they do say this will be thousands. Now this is a program that is in addition to what we already have, which is the special immigrant Visa Program that specifically was for afghans who worked for the us, military translators, drivers, et cetera. And just last friday, the 1st Evacuation Flight carrying some 220 people who qualified with that visa arrived in the United States. They are now at Fort Lee military base where theyre getting health screenings before theyll be resettled elsewhere in the country. But that one flight, which is the only one we know of thus far, was a mere drop in the bucket of the 70000 or so. People who have applied for that s i v visa and are still waiting. We spoken with people who waited in fact years for that visa to come through and now of course their fear of taliban retribution is at the highest point since. So now were opening this program from the State Department to even more ass gans potentially thousands more in the big question is, how quickly will the us be able to get this program off the Ground Process visas and get those people out of afghanistan and to a safe place and the fear is that time obviously is not on their side. Thank you heidi for that update from washington. And its not as violent John Bloodshed off guns are also having to deal with slides as well as landslides, at least 80100, excuse me, people have been killed, rescue workers, interest on province are digging through debris in search of any survivors.

Just keep the conflict into gray, military source and say that the 4 bodies who were discovered, who had their Hand Side and it looked like they were executed and then thrown into their ever it that much of the account of refugees who say that they have witnessed the c o, p, and forces as well as im heard malicious killing those who are trying to flee as well as trying to care the rest from crossing from from crossing the river into sudan.
