Using the pretext of the political grievance, those behind these acts have sought to provoke popular insurrection amongst our people. And a decade after the death of Amy Winehouse her parents tell her story in a new documentary. More than 120 people have been confirmed dead after parts of Northern Europe were devastated by some of the worst flooding in decades. Hundreds more are injured and others unaccounted for. The german president has called for a more determined battle against climate change. The german states of Rhineland Pulatinate and North Rhine westphalia were worst hit with over a 100 people dying there. In belgium, at least 20 people have been killed and the netherlands is also badly affected. The power of the water has been immense. Here you can see what the village of Erf Stad Blessem looked like before it was hit by Floodwater Mix Screen 2 and , like before it was hit by floodwater and , look , here it is afterwards. Water gushed through. Causing a huge landslide in the surrounding Fields 0ur CorrespondentJenny Hill sent this report from the nearby town of Erf Stad this country is reeling from the enormity of its loss. This is the town of erfstadt where the ground just fell away. Under the weight of water, houses collapsed in the night. Dramatic rescues, but this morning the authorities said people trapped in their homes were calling them for help but in many Cases Rescue was impossible. Those who did make it out came to shelters like this. We metjohannes here, he and his wife were winched to safety last night. He arrived barefoot and soaking wet. What were you thinking as they winched you up, i asked. I had to leave my cat behind, he says. Johannes has lived here more than 70 years. There have been floods, he told us, but not like this. Translation you can run l from fire but not from water. Tens of thousands of people still dont have power. And theyre on alert. Water levels have dropped in some areas but few here feel safe. You can see how powerful the water is here still, and whats worrying people in this area is thatjust upstream there is a dam and experts say it is unstable. They are still inspecting it but people think if that dam breaks the water is heading in this direction. And with every hour, news of more deaths. People are still missing. With mobile networks down, its hard to know how many made it to safety. Theyre desperate for help here. This was a caravan park. How to even begin clearing up. We met the owners, still visibly in shock. Translation indescribable. Weve been here since 1979. Weve never seen anything like this. If we dont get any help, well have to go on benefits. Bankrupt. Germany, a country famed for its strength, its security, feels vulnerable now. Jenny hill, bbc news, erfstadt. Another town severely hit by flooding is insul, outside bonn, Damien Mcguinness is there. Here in the centre of this small village you can see the extent and the impact of the destruction. Usually the two sides of this village are connected by an old, very solid stone bridge. That bridge has been completely swept away. Now it is impossible to go from one side of the village to the other. So local people have to shout across to see if everyone is ok. You cannot call either or send E Mail but because the internet is down, telecommunications are down and mobile connections are down. Its a really difficult situation for people here. 0n the side of the Village People are clearing up and mud is being swept away and the slime is being pulled out of peoples houses. On that side of the village, the situation even worse because its not a question of clearing up its the question of rebuilding the destruction. Belgium has also found itself impacted by the floods at least 20 people have been confirmed dead, and around the same number are reported missing. All anyone is hoping for is a let up in the weather, will they get one . Lets Talk Belgium Meteorologist david the hey now. Thank you forjoining us. What is the answer .

We would have dry weather for the next five or seven days because we had a terrible summer at the mall with lots of rain and thunderstorms and this dreadful flooding is really hysterical in our country. We are hoping to have good weather and my summer time weather with temperatures around 20 degrees which is Normalfor Belgium and the rain is evacuated towards germany, the northern part of germany which is my severely affected but to other parts so even that part of germany will have a good weather for the next week.

This is a story we will continue to cover very close to me. Thank you very much. The uk has recorded more than 50,000 new coronavirus cases in a single day, for the first time since january. It comes as the research suggests one in A Hundred people has the virus. On monday, the majority of Covid Restrictions in england are due to be lifted, but with cases rising sharply theres been growing criticism of thereheres our medical editor, fergus walsh. Queueing for art and for a vaccine exclusive access to tate moderns galleries this evening was on offer to those getting a jab at this Iconic London setting. With restrictions lifting in england on monday, and cases soaring, the race between the virus and the vaccine is intensifying. In newham, in east london, just over a third of adults are fully immunised, half the uk level. So council teams are going door to door to encourage people to have the jab. Hello. How are you . The number of first vaccinations across the uk has halved in the past two weeks as demand from young people starts to falter. Yet again, the nhs has appealed to adults to come forward for first and second doses. And that can mean overcoming vaccine hesitancy, especially in the young. I think that on social media, people believe very quickly what they read on whatsapp or other online platforms and i think its trying to change that perception. I think giving Human Guidance to them, that will show that the benefits outweigh the risks. Brothers uresh and diresh are 22 and i9 and are having their first doses. The more people we have vaccinated, it means that the cases will reduce and help us in the long term. It is good for people around you, getting vaccinated, so you are protected, as well, and youre protecting other people. Im in icu and my lungs collapsed. That was paul godfrey, 18 months ago. In his early 30s, he was susceptible to infection but never imagined the damage that covid could do. It was the worst experience of my life, obviously. I couldnt believe that this virus had ruined my body so quickly. And the fight i would have to fight. A new study has found that one in three younger adults hospitalised with covid suffered complications like kidney, Lung And Heart damage. Although old and frail adults are at the greatest risk, it is a reminder that covid can be indiscriminate in who it targets. Fergus walsh, bbc news. In spite of the uk high vaccination rates the spike in cases has lead to calls for the government to reverse some easing on restrictions particularly the move to drop the Mask Mandate for public transport. The Uk Wouldnt be the first to reverse such a decision. Israel reinstated its own Mask Mandate injune just days after dropping it after it recorded an increase cases. And in the us, Los Angeles has followed suit. Yesterday it reintroduced its own Mask Mandate for indoor public spaces after only month amid a significant rise in Delta Variant cases. Staying in the united states, the cdc has warned of high Infection Rates and sharp increases in cases in states with low vaccination levels. Florida itself now accounts for a quarter of new infections in the whole of the us. Back in the uk, the government is reversing its recently announced relaxation of rules towards people travelling back from france. From next monday, travellers arriving in england from france must continue to quarantine for ten days at home even, if they are fully vaccinated. The Department Of Health says thats because of a persistent presence of cases of the Beta Variant in france. People returning from other Amber List countries will no longer need to self isolate. Trade body airlines u. K. Said what it called random Rule Changes make it almost impossible for travellers and industry to plan ahead. The South African president Cyril Ramaphosa has been addressing the nation about the recent violence that has rocked the country. The unrest follows the imprisonment of his predecessor, Jacob Zuma, on charges of contempt of court. So far, more than 200 people have been killed in Rioting And Looting. President Ramaphosa Descrived the violence as an attack on democracy that had failed. It is clear now that the events of the last week were nothing less than a deliberate and coordinated and well planned attack on our democracy. The constitutional order of our country remains. The current instability and ongoing incitement to violence constitutes a direct contravention of the constitution of our country and the rule of law. These actions are intended to cripple the economy of our country, to cause social instability and severely weaken or even dislodge the democratic state. Sam is a journalist, political analyst and formerly served as a spindoctor for Pravin Gordhan a South African Cabinet Minister under both Jacob Zuma and Cyril Ramaphosa. What did you make of his speech . Thank you for having me. It was an interesting briefing and you wonder why the president felt the need to make the address. He spoke last Sunday Evening and based on what the government has done, the public did not know about any reforms. He confirmed that alvarez villages had been sent out to support the parties and that is not new. We already knew that. He started gave evidence and some sense of calm has been restored and ordering, he felt the need to make sure he seemed to be doing something about what is going on. What will consent South Africans is the fact he says this is a very carefully planned incidents, get to people who planned it theres that large. D0 people who planned it theres that larae. ,. , people who planned it theres that larae. ~ people who planned it theres that larae. I. ~ people who planned it theres that larae. ~ ~ , large. Do you think South Africans will believe large. Do you think South Africans will believe that large. Do you think South Africans will believe that these large. Do you think South Africans will believe that these riots large. Do you think South Africans will believe that these riots were l will believe that these riots were carefully planned . Doesnt that do away with the idea that the worst there were some good reasons why people were so unhappy and felt the need to riots . People were so unhappy and felt the need to rkits . Need to riots . Absolutely. There is an elementary need to riots . Absolutely. There is an elementary you need to riots . Absolutely. There is an elementary you can need to riots . Absolutely. There is an elementary you can say need to riots . Absolutely. There is an elementary you can say this need to riots . Absolutely. There is| an elementary you can say this was planned in response to the arrest of the former president. But the domestic Environment Issue here, the Poverty Levels and unemployment and inequality, the Youth Unemployment spends close to 50 , that is one into youths who are unemployed. People have Felt Lumber for the situation is worsened by the Covid 19 pandemic and the continuing lockdown and its a big part of what weve seen. So the environment is very first time and somebody who could Reallyjust Touch very first time and somebody who could really just touch that at any stage. What youve seen is a confirmation from the president that the state is not equipped to deal with issues and threats they face. He says this date was not properly prepared for the witness and to the response of the parties in the aftermath but also the failure to preempt whats happening. So here is that South Africa is a Sitting Target due to a number of issues and political upheavals we have seen just now are also the base issues of Poverty And Inequality and those issues are quite real and structured. He hinted there is going to be a package of measures right about cherries and Food Parcels given out but there is no indication that there will be long Term Attention to this problem. That there will be longTerm Attention to this problem. Thank you for Takin Attention to this problem. Thank you for taking the attention to this problem.
