Without. E. U. Leaders are meeting in brussels for a summit where theyre expected to agree to postpone it but it was expected to leave the European Union next friday the Prime Minister is asking for more time to get back in for. Todays decision comes with strings. The Prime Minister. Or the deal is off. Straight to brussels. Whats the mood. Like that. Might say the brakes of fatigue has pretty much reached its peak here in brussels. State leaders who have been arriving here are still willing are still committed to reaching an orderly brecks it but they are at states basically run out of answers on on what they could suggest what what could be offered to the u. K. That would be acceptable if work for two years on a deal that deal has failed twice everyone is pretty certain that it will probably fail a third time and so a lot of question marks here in brussels its one thousand and one nights since that practice it referendum but britain voted out as theresa may reiterated here today and somewhere here wondering maybe shell need a magic lamp to wrap it until she gets the deal through lets listen to the german chancellor in the pond just talk this morning before she left for brussels outlining her position on this issue its been nothing whatever you want it is my Firm Conviction that we need to have a structured withdrawal of britain from the e. U. Its not just in the interest of britain itself which of course many that believe as well but its also very much in the interest of germany and the interest of the twenty seven other Member States of the e. U. And its been about the way and i believe the key problem that has to do with the whole question of ireland lets end this to do not make the. Argument. Back to brussels and. The other european leaders i share the chancellors view. Except for Northern Ireland theres no question that the e. U. One stability for Northern Ireland into they want a safety net if you want in case the u. K. And the you could not reach a far reaching go free trade deal that will solve problems for Northern Ireland so they want stability for that part but the Sticking Point thats right now up up in the air is basically that question how long the extension that you recently seeks will last for the e. U. Its only possible until the end of may or the twentieth of may ideally before the european elections because if it was run into the european elections the u. K. From the european institutions perspective would be obliged to participate in the european elections something that tourism a has has ruled out and so the whole question today will be will they get that extension and how long will that extension be britains Opposition LeaderJeremy Corbin was in brussels. Whats here. Thats a good question and hes been here a third time now obviously seek some answers as well but many year in brussels feel theyre disappointed in theresa may she hasnt delivered on the bracks a deal that theyve been negotiating with but also equally some here have said jeremy court hasnt provided what an opposition is in a democracy should do a real alternative and even though that he is in favor of getting a deal easy even once more than theresa may he wants to stay in the Customs Union he is not willing to sign that deal that brussels and the u. K. Worked so hard on matters in brussels thank you. To london where we joined. Not so welcome back and lets start with Jeremy Corbyn does he have any backing in parliament for his alternative plan as he outlined it for people. Well the crunch time is going to be next week here in london because its really expected that m. P. s and the such also jeremy covens labor party the biggest Opposition Party will somehow take control of the bricks and process so if there is a mail to resume or doesnt work out a deal through in parliament then its expected that m. P. s will try themselves to forge some sort of consensus and that is very likely to be Jeremy Corbins centered around Jeremy Corbins vision of a Customs Union like i said so he is not himself a very strong leader and has really been criticised here in london for not setting out his position clearly enough but next week there is a real chance that m. P. s and jeremy covens party will play a much bigger role and the last night the Prime Minister used the National Television address to give fellow holiday time to go out and did it well thought m. P. s now more willing to do is that told. Those reason may in her address try to position herself as the voice of the People Versus Parliament who she put traders trying to obstruct the process and that made m. P. s incredibly angry one labor opposition m. P. Said it was an attack on liberal democracy itself another opposition m. P. Said we have been facing Death Threats over breaks it and if something happens to any of us she will have to share. She would have to bear her share of the blame i was speaking to Dominic Grieve who describes himself as a friend of tourism a conservative m. P. He said he could have wept yesterday when series im a made a speech in downing street he also said actually everybody i speak to this morning have said that to reason may really hasnt done herself a favor and that after this speech is less likely to get out here in the parliament along the. What sort of future just theresa may have nobody seems to want her as Prime Minister but nobody wants to actually do her job at the moment. Yes who would want to do that job where the country is so divided and really so at odds with each other but you know its only eight days until it breaks it and really the country is an absolute chaos say even though there isnt a procedure in place to succeed reason may if really her deal does fall through if m. P. s really take control of the process next week its likely that she will have to go but we dont know next week is going to be crunch time so watch this space all right we live in an age of uncertainty back at mass in london thank you. And take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world a large explosion at a Chemical Plant in china has killed at least six people and injured dozens it happened mid afternoon to pesticides plant in the Eastern Province of junk so its the latest in a series of industrial accidents to hit china. From as well and forces are reported to have arrested the chief of staff of Opposition Leader im quite though robert murat was taken in a raid on his caracas home. The us and other countries are recognised to quite as interim president and have warned of venezuelas government not to arrest him or his aides. The main suspect in mondays trying shooting in the dutch city of tractors to be charged with terrorism three people died on at least five were injured. Prosecutors believe the thirty seven year old suspect acted alone but say the investigation is continuing. Im at least five people have died and more than twenty injured in a series of blasts in a million Afghan Capital kabul explosions near a shiite shrine as people gathered to mark the persian new year police say the bombs. Detonated remotely. To mozambique where rescue workers have widened the search for survivors of a powerful cycloid that ripped through Southern Africa a week ago causing devastating floods and turning mozambiques worst hit area of by run into an inland sea more than two hundred people have been confirmed dead and several thousand more are still need to be rescued the search efforts have been hampered by broken infrastructure and more rain is expected in the coming days. Well just were joined now by rick day who is that global media manager from the ngo save the children in maputo welcome to d w m bring us up to date on the rescue efforts if you would. As you say the rescue efforts are on their way theres adequate theres some boats and you know the sighting came on land in beirut which is one of the biggest cities in the in the area but it swept in lands taking water with it with heavy rains that means that theres also kind of a sea has developed in the land and theres no boat available readily so they have to be transported to there. And theres people sitting on roofs those people sitting in trees a six people sitting on one small islands in the middle of water and they all have to be either rescued or help has to be brought to them and that is what makes the operation extremely hard and how are aid organizations coping with the scale of this disaster. Aid organizations are scaling up the scale of the aid as quickly as possible bear in mind there were heavy rains which made this distribution of any aid virtually impossible until one or two days ago so the aid organizations are now going in and save the children of course is really focusing on children a lot of children have lost their parents or have become separated from their parents we have received phone calls of parents that ask you know can we find that children in in beirut for example and the parents are not a part of the country. Because they cannot get in touch with them they might still be alive they might have succumbed in the ways we dont know that but you know its children on their own are extremely vulnerable for foreign abuse for violence maybe they start working too to make a living which is child labor we dont want that so we are really focusing on children to get them to safety as soon as possible so with with more rain forecast and how long do you estimate before Something Like normal returns to mozambique. Or even if the range stopped the normal will not return and aid you know in the coming days because the area that is affected is so far vast and even if the water goes away the people that are lived there have nothing left they have houses they have boats they have banned same kitchen supplies everything they had is gone. So before the life we go back to normal thats going to take a long long time and so briefly one of the most urgent tasks that you need to achieve now. Yeah well i only have one answer to that one work thats everything they need food they need shelter any supplies of kitchen you know so they can get so they can cook they need clean water is it is in is in is in why demand because you know everything is flooded that means that also Water Systems drainage have after all it which means that the water is contaminated. And that makes this. Dangerous you know if if water is contaminated diseases can break out quite easily especially among children so if you say what is needed i say everything well we wish you well and thank you for your time rick save the children in mozambique thank you. Thank you. Cross the border in zimbabwe the situation is just as dire its also been badly hit by cycling today. During a flood victim in zimbabwe money money district the elderly man died when a mudslide crushed his home. Team im in pain. My father in law had a painful death in the house collapsed because of the cycle of its hard to accept that he died that way and. We are fortunate that our mother survived. She was rescued alive. The official death toll from cycling he died in the zimbabwe stands at around one hundred but hundreds more injured money money are missing feared dead people worry they wont have a body to bury with reports of corpses floating downstream into neighboring mozambique flash floods and landslides swept through this region leaving piles of rubble behind. Desperate moments and a desperate situation for the two money Money Community in the eastern part of zimbabwe where this community was the hardest hit when cycle on the day swept through more sunday and zimbabwe you see some of them have lost their entire belongings and they have nothing that they asked to auntie. And nothing to do but wait. To move would all of this. Ended their home or my family weve affected because we are there to be grown we have nothing to. Even. Ourselves its not this disaster is happening king my only consolation is that my family and i are alive. People. Help is patchy roads and bridges that havent been swept away are often still impassable helicopters are lifting out the critically injured when they can a low cloud means they can only fly occasionally. Patients with hes. Encouraged or storms or houses for going over the summer fractures. Names and doctors here say theyre now seeing rooms turn septic because its taking so long to reach the injured for those bringing help its a race against time you sail and now are the Prime Minister to send has not stopped the government hopes to have a battle semiautomatic and military style weapons in place by next month the move follows fridays shootings at two mosques in Christ Church which left fifty people dead. Was one of the many vigils taking place across new zealand this week. As the country continues to come to terms with its worst mass shooting its also taking radical steps to prevent a tragedy like this from happening again. Today im announcing that new zealand will be in all military style sumi order medic we fans we will ban or pats with the ability to convert seemingly automatic or any other type of firearm into a military style seamy automatic weapon the lone gunman who opened fire on worshipers at two mosques in Christ Church was armed with semiautomatic rifles hes believed to have modified them with high capacity magazines to make them fire faster from now on all of this along with assault rifles will be banned in new zealand owners of such weapons will have to turn them into the Police Always always want to do everything we can to ensure those people. Get to bring the far arms to suranne surrender them to us and make that possible and possible quickly new zealanders in christchurch and across the country have largely welcomed the law change as a necessary step to keep their communities safe. I think its a step on the right direction something must change spaced on the last experience i know some people could see this as a reaction or class reaction because of one person the consequences from what weve seen is this terrible and something must change hopefully nothing in the guy and the gun laws will stop it from happening again the two mosques will reopen their doors on friday when mass commemorations to mark a week on from the attack are due to take place. Almost twenty years since the end of civil conflict under the command rouge cambodia is still littered with an estimated two million landmines according to the un clearing them is an expensive and potentially deadly business the Nonprofit Group is recruiting rats to sniff out the unexploded bombs. They may look like vermin but these rodents are lifesavers to try and traps are searching for landmines in cambodia millions are still buried across the country the legacy of decades of war. The rats have a powerful sense of smell and they have an ability to learn. Here at rat boot camp where they are trained to detect explosives. Rats can sense the slightest whiff of t. N. T. And when they do theyre given a treat. But it takes around one year before the rodents are ready. But hes good with the right. To smell. The target. So thats. Its faster and cheaper. Easy to. Carry. The rats go to work clearing this area of land mines ten of them at a time sniff out the explosives every half hour different rats take over so their concentration doesnt slip for humans one wrong step could mean death the rats though are safe. Then you need to be more than five. Just down the road the rats of free this village of landmines but thats after four decades in which the mines killed more than sixty thousand people in the country thousands more were disfigured farmer was one of them. Our village lived in fear for many years wondering who might be next. Five sons and worried constantly. Now that the mines are gone we feel great relief. And the rats are fast this area would have taken people for days to clear with great danger but the rats did it in under an hour. Football now on that Germanys National team played a friendly against serbia last night it was their first outing this year and they fielded a new look young team coach you have him x.

But leon gorecki managed to find an opening in level to school. Guys think about the ones that you saw what we were all about from our performance in the first stuff we spent too much time in areas that didnt bring us much we talked about that at half time and did things better than second and i thought i spoke on no one thats not enough of us are going to think of them as and i thought we have to make sure that we perform you saw that today but with the chances we had in the second half we have to win the game to go thats right not that unless we had just given the space part of it there was drama in injury time and serbias milan pav cough was sent off for a bad foul on leroys side me luckily side may set the foul looked worse than it was and is expected to be ok the one one finish isnt the best two enough for germany to kick off their twenty twenty euro qualification against the netherlands on sunday.
