9:02 pm
there's some poor people walking around and up doing somersaults. it was obviously terrible. this animated graphic shows the plane traveling on its intended flight path from london to sing a pool before it hits about to severe turbulence and dropped to move in 1800 meters around 6000 feet from its cruising altitude. it was then rerouted to land buying cocks main airport. that cops well started to use a still piecing together. what exactly happened on board. the preliminary investigations indicate that the deceased suffered from a hot condition. he was a 73 year old, but these national, however, they stood in the next stage of the old toxic process. as the investigation continues,
9:03 pm
several of the passengers who felt well enough to continue the journey, forwarded, another plane bound for a single pool. julia bray is an agent expert from cambridge in the u. k. i spoke with him earlier. yes. first of all come down says to the family and all those are being injured. this is a very unusual a car because the buying triple 7 is the state of the art buying, it spills of carbon fiber and use the turbulence that only affects the mainframe of the plane, and also all the other perils that we've seen today. but it does on the line, the fact that if you do fly on aircraft today because of the changing climate, weather conditions, everything else, here's your diet, you keep your seat belt on just lying around the lap, but just make sure it is actually buckled. so you call be thrown out of your chair and a hit the saving,
9:04 pm
which apparently you have to call the number of people. they additional just saving panels. and some of the infrastructure came down, exposing pipes and everything else. so there was a message and another message should be that in future it should be hand baggage of the in cabins or an old cases have to go them. so the whole because that is the placeholder. yeah. because you know, mr. brade today, there are more people that ever fly, and people are trying to fly by carrying on as much luggage as possible. do you think that this incident and others hopefully that we don't have that are blanket but this engine is going to force airlines to change their policy about carry on as i think is going to have to because the, the fed as you say, more people sign so there's more luggage in cases, i know the cases face on you'll see for the for just say uh, movable objects at all. so tied down. and so the best plays folded easy in the
9:05 pm
holes. and people say yes, but we want to get off quickly. but if there is a really emergency and then you have shoots to slide down, then people waiting to get the cases will delay the real rescue procedure. when these things do happen. so we're lucky that the plane managed to make an emergency landing. and everybody, everybody else goes off, apart from the injured and the ambulances were waiting. do we know mister bray, what the pilots, what they were encountering when, when this happened to me that they were, they were flying a boeing triple? subbing and we know the, the route that they were following. but can you maybe give us a birds i do if you will, of what maybe the pilots would have encountered and had to do the slow. yeah, so the cool, so they have all the latest navigational lights and also radio,
9:06 pm
which is very important because on mobile name for ads, doppler radar, you can actually pick up the traces of turbulent. so you all for a while and in some cases. but apparently i may close, it's going to be a mass of investigation. now to find out what did happen. but they, they would always know that the type is it says so they might have seen clear as a clear incident. i know there was nothing showing they went straight into it normally. yeah. across fly over cloud and around storms and the way from bad weather areas. but unfortunately it does happen. you get to get these sub and pockets, and you have to admit there's been some very strange weather events around the world like they for example, do by slot things i haven't said nobody's ever seen have before. and so i think we have to take account of changing climate conditions, changing rather patterns, and we had to be ready for it. so i think we kind of help ourselves if we keep
9:07 pm
those seat belt buckles buckled up where we slide. and that was a vision expert julie embrace. speaking with me earlier, russia says that it has begun tactical nuclear weapons drills close to ukraine. versus defense ministry says the drills will test its readiness to deploy the weapons. and the exercises are taking place in rushes of southern military district, and that includes parts of ukraine under russian occupation. the kremlin says that they come in response to what is calling threats by certain western officials. russian officials pointed to reset comments by frances president, who said that nato should not rule out deploying troops to ukraine. use eastern europe editor, roman gunshot, and co told us how ukraine and it's western allies are viewing the threat posed by these drills as well. um, both are taking those flat seriously bucks. um i do think that in ukraine and in
9:08 pm

9:09 pm
ukrainian army, for example, in less than positive or can so not involved in a competent direction. so no immediate contact between a nasal troops and russia. and also of course, russia is worried by ukrainian wish to strike with west and by it's on the russian territory. this could be a serious threat for our ship. so russia is signalling don't do that. that was the only country wrinkled there. speaking with me earlier, germany is defense administer boys. the story is it has ensured nato's baltic members of the german military support. story is visited a wi fi, an air base where germany's currently leading a mission to protect your p, an air space. the baltic states of lafayette lithuania and sonia all border russia . they joined nato after the breakup of the soviet union, and the military alliance fears that they could be the target of a future russian attack. a dw corresponded yeah, gosh, somebody else ski has more now from last week. in the past week fighter jets of the
