us militants at close quarters, and find eunice as it seeks to dismantle the group, which is classified as a terror organization by several countries named bodies. feel the l chief a hospital in kansas city after and is really attack desperate people were waiting for a rear delivery of food and made a growing family. the un says cousins are facing the highest levels of food insecurity ever recorded. with over 90 percent of the population surviving on less than one meal a day, we were waiting for the truck springing flower then is ready the tank status with full shells, young people, a month and others injured. i was hitting the fates and hand. meanwhile in southern gaza is really forces say they have surrounded the city of con eunice. they ordered people in the western part of the city to leave among them over 30000 displaced causes who had taken shelter at a un facility,
9:03 am
which at earlier come under attack. the inside, the agent is cool and hon. you nice. where they said it was safe. this riley is started telling us in las vegas to leave within half an hour we started running and didn't know where our family lives until them where i get this 3 days ago. not where the see and don't know what to go awhile. families are unable to leave. the strip causes 2300000 people are being squeezed into an ever smaller area as battle spread. with no idea how long the fighting will go on, or when they'll have to flee again. on the diplomatic front for hearing about new mediation efforts for the warring parties, and i asked dw, correspond to tony kramer in jerusalem. if this could be another truce in the making as well. i mean this fight that them one more reports, but it's in nature. you know,
9:04 am
if these folks behind the scenes that nothing is really confirmed and also depending on the source of my saying the gaps are still a very wide and others, i say the gaps are narrowing between the size. but there were reports a saying that the heads of the caea and of the is really most odd, are supposed to be meeting in the coming day somewhere in europe with the cut, the re, and egyptian mediators, a for a potentially a new uh, hostage deal. the is really work having that has ultimate, on thursday night discussing a potential a deal or new a ceasefire. so this would entail a temporary cease for it as it is reported in the media. a faced release of those remaining hostages in garza, in exchange for palestinian prism, his health is rarely a prison snow. we also know that homos has always us for
9:05 am
a permanent and feast. 5 foot guarantees that the fighting will not restart afterwards, and that is rarely troops of which uh, withdrawal completely from garza. so they are about a $132.00 is really hostages that remain in garza, including $28.00 that are presumed to have been killed. and that is a lot of pressure on israel, on the is really government to come to a new, a deal as you know, relatives the same time is running out for these hostages. they're telling you the international court of justice is due to make a preliminary ruling today on whether or not to order is realtor suspend its military campaign in ga. so how does israel view those deliberations that are taking place in the hague or well, i think it's very closely watched. uh, especially uh, you know, uh today when we expecting on some
9:06 am
a decision later this afternoon. um, there is a sense in israel that uh basically the um you know, it shouldn't have come to this court case at all. there's a support of the official line that is one has the right to defend itself. there is a majority that supports the war in gaza and also saying that the boys should look at the atrocities that were committed by him. us on october 7th. and we heard this again also from one of the governments spokespersons here. and israel on thursday saying these are charges ridiculous charges. they are baseless and that they are expecting that the court suit dismissed the court case altogether telling you that thank you very much. that was our correspond atanya kramer in jerusalem. and as mentioned, the us top court is due to rule on south africa's demand that his ruling mediately suspend his military operations in gaza. let's have a closer look at what's happened with the case so far.
9:07 am
it's a huge li devices and a motive trial. please be seated south africa's case at the u. when's top quote states but israel's act and emissions and gaza. a genocidal in character? i'm not crazy. don't south africa believes that the publicly available evidence of the scale of the destruction resulting from the bombardment of garza and the deliberate restriction of food water medicines direct for such are you available to the population of casa, demonstrates that the government of israel, no jewish people is really citizens, the government of israel, and its military, the intent on destroying the palestinians. because as a group, south africa has filed
9:08 am
a move in 18 pages of evidence indicate to support its claim that israel has breached a supplications under the genocide convention. a document from 1948 rights which faced israel and south africa have signed the petition of this quote. israel rejects the allegation, its legal team says the entire case is invalid. the sink of the reality is that the events which are the subject of these proceedings are, according in the framework of a war, instigated by hum us, governed by the legal framework of international humanitarian law. they do not fall within the limits of the genocide convention. and the whole but the limits a home and israel and a prime minister. benjamin netanyahu, who had struggle with spell south africa's move off. it's hard to know. no one will stop us, not the hague, not the axis of evil, and no one else. the hypocritical onslaught at the hague,
9:09 am
on the jewish state that arose from the ashes of the holocaust. innocent, both at the behest of those who came to commit another holocaust against the jews of there's a moral low point in the history of nations that nathan yahoo, the government, it's lawyers and the military say israel is exercising its right to self defense in response to the how most heart attacks and what the type of 7 sounds q and that they all doing everything possible to protect civilians and guns a a well respected international bodies, including the un, have caused doubt. but whether the huge civilian death colon garza can be justified in the name of self defense. according to the health ministry and how must run gallons a more than $25000.00 palestinians have been killed during israel's military campaign . most of them are women and children. those who have survived thus far launch the
9:10 am
displaced and living in conditions the un has described as a humanitarian like man. to make a legal decision on whether israel is conduct amounts to genocide could take years in court. in the meantime, south africa, his of the judges in the hague, to order an immediate stop to as well as campaign and gaza. drawing praise from the palestinian, joanne and bassett on the lesson of the holocaust is not that you should defend. is it a, when it is committing atrocities, but rather that one should stand against atrocities, regardless of who commit them. and who endued him the quote order. so israel to stop its will or in cause that would be final and legally binding. but the international court of justice has some history of being ignored.
9:11 am
as standing by far is that the international court of justice in the hague is the w correspondent, lucio schultz, and was here today. the judges. the will not rule on the genocide allegations that might take years. so what kind of ruling are we expecting today? yeah, good morning. we have expecting an order on so called preliminary measures of provision and mattress. these uh for vision and measures are an emergency relief that is thought to not make the case, which is i'd call verse, so to say so, so they have to come in and launch this application. it has ask for this provision and mattress and it has been asking for a number of provision emetrius among them. that is read shut the order to stop all military action. but they have also ask for, allowing more humanitarian assistance into the gaza strip. well, also that you sort of should be order to collect evidence for the law case later sir, there's a range of these mattress and the court is free to decide whether the photo south
9:12 am
africa and gr on some of these provision of address or but i'd rather um, have its own provisioning address or also to dismiss them at all and do not order any provision in measures which is if the you and judges do rule that israel has to stop its military action and god. so what would that mean for israel stairs? are, as i said, this would be one option, a lot of the provisional matters, but for which we still have to wait. but what i can say in general is bed orders of the international court of justice are legally binding. at the same time, the court has no enforcement mechanism, so it can't really force any state to follow it. i'm never the less what you have to keep in mind. this court behind me is the united nations top world court. so to say, so the international community is watching this case very carefully,
9:13 am
but you can also see with a lot of states have come out on the one side or the other. i haven't spoken out that the photo it. and that means that a judgement comes with a certain political pressure and with a certain symbolism. and that is something that legal experts say should not be under estimated, even though there's no like hot enforcement behind it. but as i said, we would have to stay a but you'd rather there are any legal consequences for you start at this stage and how they look like, let's say thank you very much. that was the w, as lucy is chosen in the hey let's catch up on a few other stories making headlines around the world today. india is celebrating as national day. it marks the adoption of the countries constitution and 1950, nearly 3 years after india, one independence from british colonial rule. french president emanuel nicole is this used guest of honor. frances, looking to strength and cooperation within the former us president donald trump,

9:15 am
united nations security council says it's unable to verify the circumstances in which a plane allegedly carrying dozens of ukrainian prisoners of war crashed in southern russia. the kremlin says ukraine shot down the transport aircraft carrying 65 ukrainian soldiers to a scheduled exchange of prisoners. moscow says ukraine was given the 15 minute warning of the flight and that both of the plains black box for quarters have been recovered. keith says it is, see no evidence that the aircraft was carrying ukrainian prisoners. russia has called a meeting of the un security council to discuss its claims. member states agreed that they were not able to determine what happened, but they called on both sides to allow prisoners of war to return home. to avoid further escalation, we are all concerned to increase rain from actions, rhetoric,
9:16 am
or allegations that could further fuel already dangerous conflict. the fate of prisoners of war should not be instrumental lives. we urge the parties to continue pursuing exchanges of prisoners of war. families of both sides are waiting to be re united with their loved ones. as you know, we just need connelly is in key. if i asked him if we're any closer to knowing who was on board the aircraft, we off and i think the biggest question that's being off here in ukraine is a very dark one where the bodies so far we have seen some very limited features, some pictures of wreckage that is alleged to being from the crash site and of one bodies. supposedly it's a picture that's being blood so we can't see that detail. but if indeed, as the russian side claims dozens of ukraine prisons will work on this thing. and
9:17 am
this is the plane that crashed. what's the meaning of this guy from a very low altitude that it was flying on to avoid radar? so we would see more of this is a place that is not far away from human habitation is not some remote crest site. so this is all very strange why we haven't seen more in previous. it does also has previous downings of this kind like image 17, very soon had locals taking pictures of things they were seeing, you know, things that are full into that garden and in full a nearby. so the idea that we wouldn't see more that we wouldn't have evidence of this mass kind of day of this principle is very strange. here in germany, there had been weeks of protest against the far right alternative for germany party, the a f d shock overwhelmed relations that some of its members were designing a mess. the deportation scheme has called into cult turned into calls for action. there's talk of banning the party and cutting off its funding, but the question remains whether
9:18 am
a band would actually dance the parties popular support or hundreds of thousands of people have taken to the streets across germany. they are protesting against the rise of the fall, right. and against the alternative for germany party, the a f d. the outcry was sparked by reports of a meeting in which some members of the se took paul 10th were master potations of people. of foreign origin were discussed a plan that code policies of germany's and nazi past. the shock was called all the way to the top of the german government in a video address. johnson, the owner of charlotte, is issued a warning and also sykes. and i'd like this. i'm saying it clearly and bluntly, i think for this rightly extreme is our attacking our democracy to them. they want to destroy all cohesion, but all the warnings have made little difference. recent polls show that support for the f, the remains for 22 percent of people are ready to vote for it. it's
9:19 am
in 2nd place behind the conservatives. and while ahead of the policies and the current coalition government and the ac is even stronger in eastern germany. there it is projected to come 1st and 3 regional elections later this year. so what can be done to stop the a if the band at all dried some politicians and many protest as the month that but that's being tried before with the right wing extremist parties and was rejected by germany's constitutional court. another possibility, cut state funding for the right wing party, a possibility opened up by a recent quotes decision. except the 2nd only continued i must be using the notary good clue, any of them. neither a pro version per so don't know, cutting the financial results or if i continue to see it that way. well, but with the constitutional court accept such a move aimed at a party that has been voted into the buddhist,
9:20 am
talk into the old 16 regional parliament. on the other hand, binding the, as the youth swing would be easy. it's been classified as right wing extremist by the authorities, and it's just an association, not a political party. the interior minister could simply issue a decree to diana davis, on the alternative on roger cole has been that if it has been proven that they are radical opponents of our constitution, then we have to take action. we will see a 100 b a. but that would not stop the a if the militant, neo nazi youth groups. what about the tracking down on the right it could individuals with in the a f d. this man beyond fucker is a case in point. he's a nazi, a court has officially found. and he has enormous influence within the 1500s of thousands of his critics have signed a petition to banned him from political offers. that might work in a couple of years time. but what it reduces influence that's thoughtful. many of
9:21 am
the protest as in the past weeks and the and not early at the a f d. the also cooled on chancellor shirts and his ministers to stop the inside thing and to implement policies that would swing voters away from right wing populism. and back to the democratic center. more in this we can now speak to kind of time, a professor of political science at the university of mines is an expert on populist radical right movements in europe with a focus on the rise of the a f d here in germany. welcome to the program. now we've just seen various approaches that could be taken to stop the a f d as a party with extremist tendencies. which approach the use think would be the most effective. as i think the approach is discussed in the field so far, we're all about legal matches against the ac and why we, why we should look into the use of these mattress. i think it distracts from that.
9:22 am
this is mostly a politic problem and should be solved by isolating the a if the politically and pointing out the extreme is tendencies within the party. so, or do you this all this attention on the a, f, d is only making the party stronger? what do you make of that? well, in a sense this is right because almost any kind of news seems to be good news for the a 50. on the other hand, we're in the territory where many people still have not formed a definitive opinion on the 8th day. so bringing these extreme, his tendencies to the, for discussing them and popular protesting them, it's not necessarily helping d. a doesn't turn hot core a if the supporters into critics of the party, but it might still reach those who are even perhaps 2 minds about what the party
9:23 am
actually stands for. the courts have ruled as we saw all that. some prominent a of the members can be called nazis. ready why is it so hard then to take legal action against the party itself? you know, that's the beauty of the rule of law, or it's never that simple and to hurdles for banding a party or stripping it m p o. it's right to sit as an m p. 's is quite difficult to during the day. so the government would have to proved and the federal constitutional court that these people are actively working against the principles of liberal democracy that they are actively try it and not just thinking about actively trying to over throw the constitution. and then the court would have to root with a super majority. so this would take years and it's not quite clear if 6 of the 8 sitting judges would agree with the government's allocation. so that's the big fear . it might take years to reach a point where um,
9:24 am
lets say 3 or 4 judges blocked up rolling because they're not fully convinced as it happened with the entity. so some i think was 6 years ago. and that would, of course, best to flip back for you at that and, and would give like a seal of approval to the a, the, that's the big fear here. we've seen mass protests here in germany against the f d and these deportation plans that are being hatched. do you think those protests are making an impression on those who support the a f d? yeah. um that's an interesting question um back in 2021 round about i think was 11 percent of the electorate support at the a the and but then much of what we're discussing now. so the links to the so called ident terry movement contacts with right wing extremists outside, depart you writing streams tendencies within the party. we're over to discuss
9:25 am
people still that didn't deter those 10 percent from supporting the 8th. the so i think this is basically a hot, cool of supporters that will not be swayed by those demonstrations. but right now the potty is broad in high end to pose. we see various poles all between 20 and 22 percent. so there is a gap between those who actually support the party it $21.00 and those who are now pondering the idea of supporting the party. and these maybe half of the current supported state might be impressed up to a point by those demonstrations. because the story of the 50 has always been the claim that they are speaking for the solid majority in the country west. these most demonstrations now make it clear that the majority is not silent,
9:26 am
and it's not supporting the a if the so perhaps it has an effect on them. the other mechanism that i can think about is that those who support the democratic party is bought or disappointed by the performance might return to the flock, so to speak, and status abstaining. kind of outside of a professor of political science at the university of much. thank you very much. my pleasure. thanks for having me. finally, china says this giant pen to population in the wild has almost doubled in the past 40 years. conservationist estimate the almost 2000 giant pad is now live in protected areas across the country. chinese officials say the growing numbers are due to efforts to maintain nature reserves and other conservation initiatives. in 2016, the species was downgraded from endangered to vulnerable on the global list of species at risk of extinction. are you watching?
