a cargo ship attacked by rebels in the red sea with fertilizer on board, young men is now warning of a looming environmental catastrophe. we're here from green piece the i melissa chan. welcome to the program. the german government says russia wire tap the conversation between senior german officers as they discussed the war in ukraine. the officers talked about whether ukraine could use german made a cruise missiles to attack the bridge linking russia to occupied crimea. chancellor, olaf schultz is calling the lead. quote, very serious and authorities has opened an investigation. it is an explosive leak. that's just sending shock waves through germany's political and military establishment or recording of

a conversation between high ranking and false offices. they talk about this taurus a long range, cruise me style, capable of taking out the bunk cars and over $45.00 facilities. the officers speak about sending them to ukraine. they also mentioned possible targets, including the touch bridge. they can cry me up with russia seen by you crate, and there's a symbol of wish and occupation one office a allegedly sites this. we've looked closely at the bridge. it is unfortunately like a landing strip due to its size. that means it is entirely possible. we would need 10 or 20 messiahs. it's a major embarrassment for german chancellor, olaf sholtes. he's promised to get to the bottom of a leak. that's desktop evicted, web design. what spring reports it is very serious. that's why it's necessary to begin a very thorough intensive and rapid investigation. schultz has so far refused to

send taurus massages to ukraine, to the stray sion of many little may, cuz he's concerned they could be used to hit target. some russian soil. sampling recording was posted, the social media by mockery, just simonian for head of ocean state broadcast a r t u credit and officials are clearly enjoying the moment so suitable by it's almost this, i don't know how to describe what happened and i was like no, but uh, nato colleagues, obviously involved and so, and i don't know how they will explain that to their own population. can you believe somebody scouts the same this'll in germany's ministry is scrambling to pluck the leak and wondering whether any more of its conversations could have been tight of the united states carried out its 1st air drop us aid into gaza on saturday. 3 planes delivered around 303-8000 meals into the territory of

more than 2000000 people. washington says the air drops will be sustained effort, and that israel supports the operation tens of thousands of ready meals and dropped to a population that the united nations size is on the brink of famine. the us size is the stop as a border campaign with the budget administration, trying to prevent the humanitarian disaster. and well agencies welcome the drops. they say it's nowhere near enough. the united states just dropped 38000 yields is not across the control input. it would be much better and much more meaningful to make sure that the crossings work more effectively and more trusting for so are $28000.00. uh um, you know, that's probably less than one full truck. so for summing gaza dropped feels almost

like a token gesture, considering the scale of the humanitarian crisis. in most the united states as part of this crime against gaza. today, america is trying to buyer silence by sending his aid. it's better for us to live in war then to get a from america president by didn't approve to the mission of, to more than 100 palestinians were killed during a couch encounter with a trucks. and the is right, the last week. he's under mounting pressure burst out to him, and the boat is response to the western humanitarian crisis in gaza. the situation and gaza tonight can only be described as catastrophic. the humanitarian needs are obviously the 3, the roof. families are struggling to meet that day. the needs increasingly difficult to find clean foods of the water and access to basic health care.

there are increasing reports of illnesses linked to mountain nutrition. we are seeing an increase in the prevalence of diarrhea as well as other types of illnesses as well as such as scabies which are very concerning. well, the meals will be welcome from any of those. you can get them. it seems unlikely to have any real lasting impact for the people being hit ta, just by this bull. a dw washington correspondent, janelle de leon told us why the us chose to drop a now after months of a mounting humanitarian crisis. well, the bard and administration had been looking into air drops like these for weeks now, but they say that they haven't done so until now because of the logistical challenges involved. but what really appears to have move the needle this time around, is that incident that we described in that report. we just aired that incidents

around the depths around that humanitarian convoys, or is really troops are accused of opening fire on palestinians trying to get food from those aid trucks. now there's a lot of uncertainty, spills around. what actually happened there, but white house spokes person, john kirby said that that incidents not highlighted the need to get more creative way to find more creative ways of getting greater assistance in to gaza. and at scale us officials really treating this like a key event that highlights the dire and us of the situation in gaza. also worth pointing out that this is happening at a time where the bite in administration is facing a lot of pressure over it's is really policy blight and expanding a lot of political capital here. losing a lot of support along, especially young voters here in the us. he's under pressure to be showing to show that he's doing what he can for the palestinians. but obviously there is this rebuild the reasonable debate going around now as to how much difference air drops

without any kind of systematic distribution for how much difference that will really make. or here's a look at some other stories making headlines around the world. thousands of anti government protesters have rallied in cities across israel. they're demanding early elections and that prime minister benjamin netanyahu step down that in yahoo, his popularity has plummeted since the october 7th from off terrorist attack. protesters also called for the release of hostages, still held in gaza in the us primaries race. donald trump has won the republican nomination from 3 more states. the caucus boats in idaho, michigan and missouri were all quickly called for the former president is one every state. so far, setting him well on course to be the parties candidate in november's presidential election. at least 7 people have been killed in a russian drone attack on the ukrainian port of odessa president vladimir zelinski

says bush, a head drone was supplied by iran. he's urging ukraine's western allies to send his country more air defense systems. a cargo ship attacked by who the rebels in the red sea has sunk is the 1st vessel last since the human based group began targeting commercial shipping. that it says is linked to israel. the british owned will be mar, was carrying thousands of tons of fertilizer when it was hit by missile and began taking in water nearly 2 weeks ago. time is running out. humans, official government is warning. the sinking could cause an environmental disaster. earlier we asked paul horseman from green peace international to explain how much environmental damage this thinking could cause. so i started, is it going to assess the big factors you've got about $41000.00 tons of photo eliza being thrown into the ocean. and together with a 10 percent tons of the oil,

the fuel of the ship and together those could, could create so once, once it's a sensor, this creates an environmental disaster in the area. so what's needed, ray is immediate action to assess the situation and, and, and try to try to recover as much as possible. they, they internationally recognized governments. they said people to see the shift. but as far as any kind of recovery or salvage efforts, as far as we know that's not started yet, because evaluating costs area to operate at the moment, we all know the political situation. but, but really there's a, has to be a huge amount of assets combined with 2 of us there in order to get to the ship in order to assess the damage and possibly recover as much as possible. just by divide to the political difficulties. it's been nearly 10 years since malaysian airlines
