4:30 am
a mess, things up. we're seeing brain damage. so let's stop this self sabotage, humans and multitasking watch. now on youtube, v. w documentary, the, this is focus on europe. i'm lara baba lola, welcome. russia's invasion is testing the limits of ukraine's army. hooton's forces have been making games, rushes, military release. these pictures allegedly showing their advancement as the strength and their position on the front lines ukrainian soldiers have had to retreat. they are counting on billions in a to arrive quickly from the us and europe. in ukraine, south,

the city of her son has been in baffled since the outbreak of the war. its location on the black sea makes it strategically important. many residents have flooded the showing which is near constant. her son is becoming deserted, but this doctor is standing his ground. all exempted shrivelled toddy, all that sees it as his duty to help her sons injured citizens and soldiers. despite the danger and sacrifice. it's a beautiful day for has sun city on ukraine's frontline. the sky may be great, but the silver lining of these clouds is that russia will launch fewer attacks. dr . or like santa chapel toddy of is one of the last doctors here. i wasn't going to sit on the someone has to do it and do it here. the other, but that's the 1st reason the
4:32 am
federal a 2nd is that i'm doing something good here shouldn't be. is it any different from our boys in the trenches? he stayed through the cities liberation from russian occupation in november 2022 the 1st day of the operation i raised the flag pass on has been under constant bombardment by russian forces. and so all activity inside the hospital takes place without the benefit of daylight. the windows are boarded up from outside to keep the glass from shattering and a missile strike. you have to go there should be the name on the head of the radiology department. doesn't do cars or used to be responsible for consulting with other radiologists and identifying injuries on the radiology scans,
4:33 am
which i think you would have 1st of income of things. but now i routinely do whatever comes up. i think video advertisements. and you might see him have some lies in southern ukraine. the opposite bank of the new pro river is in russian hands. the city was occupied by russian forces for 8 months until out of 2020 to this throne. me i believe the weight in there for the before the war. we had every day injuries and especially from black ice broken bones and so on. now their injuries from minds or artillery shrapnel listed in the mature present, even if it wasn't working, it's difficult when someone has several injuries at once. i'm done with the youth. if i knew for both of us the past on is bombarded daily the sirens, the doctors rarely have time to seek shelter. he is
4:34 am
the only radiologist left in this hospital. the other 15 of all fled either abroad or to other parts of ukraine. his wife and daughter also fled after their apartment was hit last year. at the time their daughter liza was only 4 years old. she also kind of bomb flew into it. i feel sorry for our home number. luckily we got out in time where we'd be dead. you don't want to die these days as soon as something of a ghost town. only the supermarket shows signs of activity, almost like an oasis amidst the war zone. life pier is full of contrast.
4:35 am
dishes more than she was with a visit. boston where can you feel safe? now this was almost nowhere for though you can have you at any moment anywhere to i don't know. so i have animals at home with a wife who seriously, oh, i can't just pack up and leave the best doctor all atlanta chapel. totty, lots old neighborhood was caught in the crossfire. so me a call here we took a direct hood. my balcony was torn off completely deal slow, both on the so that a little even of trunk gifts is a small town in the west of ukraine. the doctor's wife, vitalia,
4:36 am
and daughter liza have been living here for a year. but the new apartment still feels temporary. dr. vitalia trouble tardy over is also a medical doctor. but she hasn't found a new job yet. for a daycare center for liza. so many people have moved to western ukraine from the east that it's extremely hard to get a foothold for a new beginning here. but there was no other solution. even liza understands why they had to leave their city. because kennestone has being bombarded. it's a bad time perhaps soon, but dad is doing the best he can there the fear too far away from the front, the war ways on people's minds. even if life in this part of ukraine is very different. the sideboards commemorate people from even know from kits to fall in at
4:37 am
the front. one of them was friends with vitalia enter, husband, memorable. it just never should have happened almost every day. there are more of these pictures a year ago. this boulevard only had half as many people learned to survive any situation you get used to everything you survive. the test was dig a factory, including hydra has given the workforce in eastern germany, a boost. thousands of jobs have been created in the region. company founder eli mosque has held it as a sustainable and efficient facility. but from the moment he announced the project years ago, the town has become increasingly divided. opponents of the car factory saved the jobs and infrastructure come at
4:38 am
a high cost environmental as argue the plant is doing more harm than good and are determined to stop it from expanding test levels to make sure that this is jim storage area for germany and for your event for the world to start protesting here in front of test 9, clean high to come, hudson, we simply can't afford to go on as we are entrepreneur. ellen musk wants to expand his tesla plant near berlin in germany, which would mean clearing forest. a nightmare for roman as this activist calls himself. he's part of the group who have occupied the forest in protest against tesla. that's not for one. i just love for that as much. i'm always happy enough for us to be. i felt the ground and since i got here to title data, the 24 year old has joined the occupation to prevent further deforestation. cutting down trees for environmentally friendly cars. roman says that's
4:39 am
a contradiction. test size is tesla is super clever at selling. this is a solution as a green alternative to our current situation. but we simply can't afford to go on as we are in the long term. it's not everyone can have a car as long as this, because in time sheet on auto hub, the ads of this come from all over germany and some from abroad. they've been occupying the area for 2 months. here on the outskirts of the small village of gruen heider, tesla is producing the model why? which in 2023 was the best selling car in the world. most cars, broad economic growth to the region around 12000 people work in the giga factory. german chancellor love schultz attended the opening himself the elect them over the electron mobility will shape the future of mobility. and that's evidence here today. yeah. clock
4:40 am
local resident men, when a jolla has a different take on the situation, she's bound to the citizens initiative. for them, it's not only about the trees. the factory was built in a water protection area and their biggest fear is contamination. a catastrophe that would leave tens of thousands of residents without drinking water. he mentioned or taking us for a ride as a dime, a friendly. there's nothing. climate friendly about it. nothing at all. that's a tune. conflicts. over 60 percent of room height a residence recently voted against teslas plans to extend the plant the company scaled back its plan somewhat. but it's still intent on expansion of your standing here in front of this factory. but what didn't they understand? pushed on and yeah, and we're not going to hide a residence, voted against the expansion. and we're going to continue to fight it vladin of via
4:41 am
that are getting can tesla should stick to the line they've already destroyed and leave the rest of the forest and peace item and vice. now, in their battle against tesla, some protesters have resorted to sabotage in march and electricity. pylon was set on fire by a radical left wing group. the attack paralyzed production at tesla for days, costing the company millions of bureaus. e law must called the perpetrators the dumbest eco terrorist on earth for stopping the production of electric vehicles and to boost morale. he visited the blantan gruen hi to say the the attack caused consternation and politics and business. we contacted tested to hear their side, but our interview requests remained unanswered. the company actually could point to a number of steps. it's taken to protect the environment. for example, it built a new industrial water filter system. this recycles almost all of the water and
4:42 am
thereby reduces consumption. that's one of the reasons why some residents support the company. i blushed kula belongs to a different citizens initiative. together with a friend to be a flint. he follows and documents the development of the tests, the factory i deal with. i don't even noticed anything new for the is the all finding the i also believe there are global challenges here. how about the test that i see? tesla is part of the solution. this is by and that's not the case for most people in the count at all. i am convinced that without tesla, we wouldn't have gotten to where we are in the electron mobility visits. and as i live, everyone says that electric cars alone will stop climate change and that's true. but public transport alone can stop climate change either nothing on its own. construct, climate change and we need multiple different solutions. kaluan high to town center . the 9000 people who live in glue and high to have diverging
4:43 am
opinions on both the tesla and the activists is cutting down. you have to sell everything back to air, water, earth, soil, all for sale. and instead of the protesting, they should be looking for work with tesla test. that'd be that many, i'm named bertha, and they've probably never worked a day in their lives. so there's a try working for 48 years like me, that there a bunch of free loaders. i have to go, but it's like i said, how can the dispute be resolved? local politician palmilla ashmond is moving over this. every question. as chair of the local council, she has a say in the decision on whether tests that can expand the factory. but she's still undecided on how to vote. she tells us that the millions of euros in tax revenue from tests that have made it possible to build a new school. at the same time, she recognizes that many citizens are concerned. as a tesla's testament, as both a curse and a blessing for clean hydro. i'm the one hand,
4:44 am
the higher tax revenues are a blessing to us. on the other hand, the curse as all the restructuring that affects this region. do you do the and the source of the residence anxieties? prove us because residents are afraid that they'll no longer recognize their clean height when items with the wild boon height, the locals tend to voice their opinions. tesla employees that commute here are much more reticent every day they have to pass the protesters. information stands to get to the factory side. what do you think of the protest camp here? no comment. what's your take on the camp? tension is rising in the camp. police are patrolling the area but aren't allowed to evacuated yet. the occupation is officially registered until the end of may only then with the police be allowed to disperse the camp. the activists are preparing
4:45 am
for that day. we were trying not to be too invasive, but theoretically i'd have permission to march right through here because i can't see any of the dug a hole in the ground back there. or if there's a fire pit or rubbish, i can't see it from here. savings and moves from here, we'll say see they're planning the bigger anti tests, let protest soon along with other activist groups for room. and it's not just about the situation here. he's also critical of the continual economic growth and its consequences. if the dentist is he, uh, is some of the woodlands here may well be cleared. a lot of like it's already happened up there to build electric cars, which at 1st glance appears to be a more sustainable alternative to the time the course. you could argue that it's worth it to reduce overall emissions, but we're not just here because of this forest since the whole supply chain and everything that comes with it. the, the reason bias here. so then there's a massive exploitation of supplement in men's environmental destruction. and this
4:46 am
is, this is the men's, alice boyd and women's only still as evening falls, peace returns. but the battle over test level continue in the green hide forest. a mild climate, sunshine and beach, whether all year round. welcome to the canary islands. a spanish archipelago, off the coast of west africa. every year, millions of tourists fly there to enjoy their holidays. 10 a reef is the largest of the group, and an increasing number of resorts are being built to accommodate the many visitors. the locals like victor martin, are fed up with their island being over run by tourists. and some residents are taking drastic measures to call for change empty land with unobstructed ocean views with some view as a perfect place for a new tourist resort. others would like to see left to nature.
4:47 am
victor martine belongs to the latter group. he's looking to prevent his need of canary islands from being completely absorbed by tourism. but even this place, which was formerly used to good tomatoes and bananas, will soon house hundreds of luxury apartments. and we'll go to somebody if we don't want to completely lose the connection to our roots, which has already long been undermined, especially not in this coastal region where tourism has taken up more and more space over the last 50 years or so. what am i have? what this would be another step in that direction, but i think i'm in. thank you so much. victor knows his way around the canary islands. better than most. he's a university professor of geography, turned activist and spokesperson for the canaries. have had enough alliance only around 2000000 people live on the canaries. last year alone, some 14000000 for an holidaymakers came to the archipelago. tourism dominates the streetscape. it's also celebratory duty on his bread and butter. they need
4:48 am
a battalion moved here 6 years ago. he and his wife opened a small diving school in most americans. he has limited sympathy for people going on hunger strikes against the tourism. let's go to that to me. i don't think it's a right to complain about tourism was because we live from engines introduce me. nobody can live here without tourism the game, but i think it has to be responsible tourism in moderation onto these mo, the must seattle, most of salvatore is customers know 10 to reef. well, i had been coming here for years to dive the fact that they as torres are seen as a nuisance by some local, is this something that many are aware of? we were actually discussing yesterday we went to the supermarket and we were talking about the prices. so the we compared to a few years ago that we've been here and they raised the law. it was crazy and we were thinking like how the can the loco survives with these prices in the supermarket x units. salvatore is done in school is doing well. the temperature
4:49 am
here hardly ever drops below 20 degrees celsius making diving, snorkeling, and swimming possible all year round. something his pupils love about the mid atlantic islands, but there is another side to attend the roof where people who can't find an apartment find themselves and housed fellow has been living like this for years. he says he's lucky, he always liked camping so lovely that got his boss is the only roof over his head . you don't go from 2 to after that and 200 people originally occupied, the building around 30, remain next to it with no electricity and no water. that law had spent a long time looking for a place after separating from his partner. being an issue to cut off, i work in construction and at some point i passed by this building, but as you know, so i decided to move in with the others until they kicked us out. so yeah, most likely. now we're all on the street because you can't find a rental and then loyalty this. and if you do,
4:50 am
those can be expensive. like in this residential complex in the south, even real estate agent a lean, my ran has difficulty finding a place. he knows the market and the fierce competition there will be at least 20 other interested people. so you have to decide very quickly at the office. so many languages are spoken to accommodate international clients, according to our liens. colleague, atlanta, 80 percent of their customers are foreigners, given the low wages on the canary islands, locals have a hard time winning bidding mores for, for the most of the apartments belong to landlords who have 3 for 5 or 6 apartments . all rented out as holiday homes, basically like very few properties on the market condo. that's especially true in the inner cities. locals therefore have to commute to work in the active as of victor says, tourist add to the traffic problem. this hotel project is being coach,
4:51 am
tested, active as say its building permit so close to the waterfront is dubious. after being halted, once construction has now resumed. but the islands hotel owners have a different view. jorge, muddy child doesn't want his gets to feeling welcome and is newly renovated hotel. simply the visits are blaming towards the tourism is actually the solution here. and what problem is that our population has grown by 30 percent in the last 25 years. and the main thing we're going to see will not, but we don't have a more highways, hospitals, schools, or housing locally here. none of that has grown into people any left by the level. as you tell, the owners are demanding more infrastructure and want the state to step up but active this one, a different economic model for the canary islands. the 2nd pores region in spain will give the name of the continued to leave the canal aryans can do much more than
4:52 am
just clean rooms and wait tables, even though they're good at that, eat them the income. i think that the 2000000 inhabitants have a lot to offer and that many are willing to develop other sectors like industry or agriculture and above all, renewable energy is internal water. there. sometimes less is more. could that be the case when it comes to tourism in the canary islands? london is famous for its sky line and dreary weather, but was to quite man a rainbow was always on the horizon. the doctor genario has a knack for looking on the bright side, and the artist is getting notice both online and off. now soon as colorful style is inspiring others to follow suit. for su, craftsman, every day starts with a generous splash of color, i'd like for her color is everything. each one of these things is a work of art. and when i put myself together, i'm essentially making a collage because i want to bring color an art and excitement out into the page

world. people dress souls stove, the investigative color. they have promo for the she's become something of an icon for a movement that is all about color and the social media savvy, 83 year old has some advice for all of us listening phase. don't wear beige, it might kill you. i mean that from the bottom of my heart, some people are afraid of heights. some people are afraid of spiders. i am petrified space time to bring the fight against the bays and the bland to the streets at spittle fields. market london, sou craftsman is a familiar face. she meets many of her followers here. one is vibrant as the next. the mood is bright and best is it

lift you up. also, if it's not many, yes until the x is which clearly it isn't for me. he, we'd best it'd be as cheerful as recap and swing about and have loads of fun. it really is a community that sees is created and what a community it is. every 3rd thursday, su, entered color, full co conspirators get together or color walk is gaining quite the following. the, it's not just fashion, though. sous message for philosophy even is quite simple. color, he's good for color has helped me through my life to connect to my emotion and to main. instead, i like the opportunity to be an extrovert because i'm an introvert really, but i love to dress up. so to me it's an opportunity to select my in a shy self be both. and if you do happen to pass by wearing page,
4:55 am
you might just get pulled in. and if i do so read to see someone wearing colors, do anything like so many people as kate of college and seeing that i think that you made my day like i'm working in this way. my day to day the papa roxy are invited to what better way to get the word out than a good photo. it's just about color, it's about. it's about and it's about being with people. feel the same way. that's the incredible. i'm not just one lonely, weird though. i've got a lot of weirdos with me and we're not only the to craftsmen is undeniably magnetics for energy drawing people in from all walks of life. a missionary for a more colorful world. anything goes except baze. that's all from us this we get focus on your thanks so much for your company. bye for now.
