just hours before the us submits a draft to the un security council, calling for an immediate and sustained cease fire and gaza. here's blinking speaking in egypt yesterday. there's a clear consensus around a number of shared priorities. first, the need for an immediate sustained cease fire with the release of hostages. that would create space to search more humanitarian assistance to relieve the suffering of many people and to build something more. and right now the cease fire that we're working on would be the best most immediate way to enable us to search mandatory assistance. but it's not the only way we agreed today. all of the ministers that we would get are experts together in the coming days to identify the urgent practical and concrete steps that can, it should be taken to increase the flow of assistance is real nice to do more. i

spoke earlier about this with our tourism correspond atanya, kramer and journalist korean mcguire in cairo. i s cream 1st for his impressions of lincoln's efforts to reach us east by record as well as the egyptians and the companies. uh well, the mediators are pretty tightly blinking subset display that, that we're getting closer to a, didn't the, the gaps, the closing was out, the giving anymore. the tents for the fact that they going to meet today into a, again, in the cost of the risk, the heads of the egyptian they're going to is really, most of the intelligence means that there's something on the tables that old sites find worth negotiating about. it, but what is all sort interesting of this? we think this thing, cairo, and that was not only was the addiction for me. is that but was foreign ministers of the features of 6 era of countries here. so there, there is a consensus between to us and the air of states,

and that this person needs to be an immediate to be in sustainable ceasefire, but also that there reached a max if increase is coming in. and maybe what's most interesting and concerns. and so forth. what should happen often was that the, there should be a, the arab states basically offer an integration of, is ran into the region for a policy and states. and that is something the u. s. is a green was that's the old land for peace, a formula. but of course it's very difficult to achieve was the car and the right thing is ready, the government's tanya, what kind of welcome is and to me blinking, likely to get from is really leaders when he arrives there today. i mean, he's so scheduled to meet with the prime minister benjamin netanyahu and other members of the smaller board cabinet. and this comes of course of to a lot of public back and forth between the us administration. and this current is

really a government mainly between you as president jabard and prime minister benjamin netanyahu, but also other american officials being you know, very critical of as well as a war of conduct. now of course uh do you guys remain is what is closest ally and also the main support when it comes to military 8. but there has been tensions, and that is because he wants to induce right now. this talks bill sent around. as far as we understand, you know that the americans have said we want to see more aid. as we heard coming into garza, we want to see more protection of the building. so also want to talk about this plan, the military operation in the off where the americans are saying there must be other ways to defeat from us why protecting civilians. but also of course, the talks in doha that are going on and be heard that from the is ready, prime minister's office. they're saying that the head of the massage is on its way this. so they might be some movement that is also very closely watched here cream

the us is trying to assert itself in dealing with the middle east now in a way that it has. and for years, it's very trying to be very engaged diplomatically, but how much leverage does the united states in the right now in the form of its us secretary of state there have in the region. it was, let's give you that except for next week. good. the, is there any minister of defense galant? this is due in washington with a wish list to offer more weapons. and they want to get in here is executive, the leveraged is billions of dollars on financially monetary age from the u. s. and to uh, to his read, one of the most immediate things would be the um, initially for offensive operations in gaza. but until now and biden is not willing to use this leverage to attend though we have basically only words and public words or criticism. it's what is written, but no extra when it comes to that the 8th military and financial aid is right. and

that's the biggest leverage. any company has always, right? by the time you talk to us about the new un resolution that's being put forth by the us, a security council resolution this calls for an immediate sustain ceasefire and gaza. a boat could come within hours. how is this being seen in his real yeah, once again, i think this is also being a courtesy watch because in the past and every month, the receipt in the us, vito, as of you and counsellor resolutions or standing and, and basically i'm sitting in a way is ro, from those of resolutions and now this one, this draft emphasizes, 1st and foremost, you have to say the need for an immediate and sustained a ceasefire to protect civilians to allow more age and also to be alleviate suffering as it says. but also it aims to secure the seas for it in connection with

the release of hostages. now the wording here is a very important for some, it is still not strong enough other side, it might a pause. and of course, the international impression is ro is increasing with this, but we have to wait and see how is why i respond to it. it has in the past not always adhere to such resolutions. tanya is carina. thank you very much. that was our correspond tony kramer in jerusalem and kareem l. y in. kyra. now in a related development to humans who the rebels have told china and russia that their ships can pass through the gulf of aidan and the red sea safely who these have been attacking vessels off the coast since november the us and u. k. it launched air strikes on who the targets in retaliation militant group had bowed to continue a tax. and the shipping lane until is real ends it's offensive in gaza. earlier this month, 3 crew members were killed when their ship was hit in

a boot. the strike as well. joining me now here in the studio is hines, young, have schindler, he is the senior director at the counter extremism project. thanks for being with us. how have china and russia managed to make this arrangement with the who the rebels? so what are they getting an exchange? well, physically they negotiated, they know mine, but really behind all of this is the, who's the contact, who would be here? a new machine. we knew his name is the main spawn. so that was the movement. russia and china are now very tricky developing into allies of your on exemplified by last week's joint naval trails. in the re regency between china, russia and iran, and the maintenance have done a favor, i guess for, for the allies. the cookies claims they are attacking out of solidarity with the palestinians and that they are talking only those ships that are somehow related to is real connected. israel. what do you make of that?

that has been nonsense for several months. uh they even targeted inadvertently. i assume a russian tank got in january, so they shooting at all of the civilian shipping. that goes through, i guess the reading is, are going to help them to distinguish now between russian and chinese and everyone else. but i mean, there's been a long, long, long i no longer true that they just, i look at is really ships or ships going to israeli harvest any civilian ship was targeted in the last couple of the us says that western air strikes in the m and have degraded uh, the hoots, eas ability to strike ships, but those attacks are still continuing with it. absolutely. so there are several ways of quite successful targeting of with the infrastructure. but even the american administration is not meeting that they were surprised at the extent of the who, the awesome. and then of course iran continues to resupply that is ramping up. if it's for the us navy to disrupt those, re supplies to examine. but it will take,

you considerably longer than the rest of station apparently helpful. so now international shipping is being diverted right away from the red sea because of those attacks. that means that if there's a significant drop in revenue for countries like egypt that operate the suez canal, what are those countries not doing more to rein in the who these, what i mean, 1st of all is not just a drop and revenue for, for egypt most of the things that europe exports anyway into asia actually supposed to go through the red sea, which is the shortest route to asia, which means the european was actually paying the price already. containers are twice as, as expensive. shipping insurance has increased by 200 percent. the transport around the african continent take means 10 more days of transport routes. so it is in our european central interest in, in a year where inflation is still the problem. increasing price is the problem to

make sure that this viper shipping would stays open the gulf countries in a bit of a bind. because as you may remember, since 2015, both saudi arabia as well as the u, a. e and a range of problems including egypt. dr. draining the who fees on the ground in human more or less on successful the until now and not in negotiations with a who's, he's about withdrawing from him. and so they apparently do not want to get directly involved, although it would be in the interest to make sure that these negotiations with, with these progress, from the perspective of the who, the is, and a rat. and how successful have these attacks been? what impacted they have? unfortunately, spectacularly the who these were an extremely dangerous, extremely radical extreme, is movement in government and they treat jimmy nice ask you would expect eyes loc i'd have to do, but they were, you have any problem now they, i really, i need to national problem and put them on the map and russia and china promised in

return for the protection of their ships to protect, to who is these politically. this can only mean that russia in china is going to prevent the united nations security council as permanent members from ramping up the pressure on the roof. he's biased sanctions as the us and europeans. i'm thinking to do right now that you've drawn a direct line between the rent and the who is the rebels. there are other rainy and proxies in the region, of course, operating to uh, from the beginning of the guys of war. there were concerns that this, this conflict could spin out of control and draw in the wider region. where do you see the danger of that threat level now? where it's still not over, right? so there is still a daily exchange of fight between his ball on israel, and there's always the danger that this is going to be the next board zone. and they are parts of the israeli government to argue the midst of defense. for example, argues that this has to be the next was on, i'm the it raining allies in iraq and syria. really learned the lesson men to buy

and have missed ration targeted them off the tower, $22.00 and then padded a base. and jordan was attacked by them. um, so they have run down the pressure, but the booth is continuing is polite, is continuing. so the not yet. it is a situation where i would say regional conflict is absolutely guaranteed to be boss hands. you have shinla from the counsellor extremism project. thank you very much. think it's catch up on a few other stories making headlines today. reports from haiti say a major gang leader has been killed in the capital for the prince source to say the gangster, known as to greg who escaped from prison earlier this month was killed in a police operation. political groups are working to set up a transitional council to restore order until elections can be held or for cadillac, separatist leader called us push them on, says he will return to spain to stand in catalonia is regional elections and may be

small, has been living in exile after a failed break away boat in 2017. he's hoping to return to the country once an amnesty deal put forward by spain central left government becomes law. 2 people have been reportedly had been killed and several wounded in overnight attacks over ukraine. president belong to me as a landscape, posted these pictures on your tax, on the on x, formerly known as twitter, he says, ukraine down over 90 russian missiles and drones and named it the largest strike on the country's energy infrastructure of the entire war. in brussels, you leaders are debating whether to use proceeds from frozen russian assets to help ukraine under a plan that includes buying arms for keep you chief, personally from that line. welcome to move. here's what she had to say. we must continue to support ukraine's efforts to fight back on the battlefield. so i'm glad

that lead us endorsed our proposal to use the extraordinary revenues from immobilized washing assets. this will provide funding for military equipment to ukraine. we can expect to collect around 3000000000 euros for 2024, and similar amounts in the future use spring in our brussels bureau chief, alexander phenomena in here. as sandra you leaders have agreed to take proceeds from russian financial assets are frozen in the you and use them to support to ukraine in defending itself against russia. was this an unanimous? was there unanimous support for this move among the 27? you remember states to well, in the and o u leaders here in brussels have agreed in principle that the once a large majority of those profits from frozen russian assets to go to ukraine.

and according to what was the last fund, a lie and the rope and commission president, the 1st flower shop that money around, 1000000000 euros could be transferred to ukraine by this summer. but the leaders are also saying the ones to the work on this proposal to continue the wants to have a robust legal basis for that. or as to belgium prime and new style extended the crew up put it. they don't want this move to have any, it could not make impacts that they could not digest. because of course, they don't want other nations to believe that, you know, their assets could be also use or concepts key to they don't want other nations to use that decision as a blueprints to also freeze assets and so on. because a, as a b k economic block, they need to the global markets to be properly functioning and still they are

determined to move on with that decision. yeah, there are some legal questions surrounding it. how much money are we talking about here? and what exactly will it be used for we are talking about around $3000000000.00 euros every year. and the european union wants to use it to a very high extend about 90 percent, to for ukraine to be to buy a munition and weapons. because as leaders stress tea and breakfast, that is what ukraine needs. urgency needs right now. a part of that money is also going to be retained for a potential reconstruction of the country. that's uh, the problem is that some members of the european union neutral countries such as small town or austria or islands to have some concerns about that. and that is actually being addressed. and the conclusions that we saw yesterday with the leader

saying they wants to take to account and consider the concerns expressed by those countries. but we have to see how that is going to happen. well, russia obviously isn't going to be happy about this. move by the e. you could most go end up reclaiming this money. alexandra. well, tell me that it's actually an excellent question because there is a possibility that that's money which needs to be paid back to russia off to the war effect. they launch legal action. so this move is laden with the legal risk and a still the you appear in the union is ready to move forward with that also because the pressure from the united states to decide on that has been increasing over the last months. so despite the legal risk there are ready to to do it. alexandra, thank you very much. that was our brussels bureau chief alexander from the thank

you. so we've got some breaking news coming in right now. the us secretary of state anthony blinking has just landed in israel for a gaza tax with israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu. it arrives as the un security council is set to vote on the us sponsored resolution for an immediate cease fire. and as israel plaza ground assault on, the southern goes in town a rough time. now, dozens of a hinge of refugees have been rescued off the coast of indonesia. local fishermen pulled the people to safety after their boat capsized the day earlier. the group was sailing from bangladesh where more than half a 1000000 revenge that had been re settled. ranch are a minority. most of the ethnic groups heavily persecuted in young

0 hinge, or refugees had been stuck at sea for more than a day. until a search and rescue team found them under the beating sun. they had been travelling in a wooden boat capsized after weeks at sea. there was 69 survivors, and no number of people were unaccounted for. those decor was one of the people found on the boat last night, simon was passing by and i asked if we could get into his boat. he said he would call the police. i thoughts hope we can soon. but he never came back. some of the ro hinge on board, see their boat held around a 150 people before it think. the group was sailing from bangladesh. in bangladesh, we lived where there was a camp for hinges. it's way with lots of

a hinge live. my whole family is that, but we didn't have enough money. we didn't have enough food. and i couldn't work that. more than half a 1000000 ro hinge a half led targeted violence in myanmar for bangladesh. they lived there and some of the world's largest refugee camps. some board boats and sale to indonesia for better conditions. indonesia has welcomed some ro hinge in the past. but some of these tests really be there because of the spike of arrivals, of people trapped and one of history's largest refugee crises. german football and adidas or breaking up the german national team will no longer wear adidas gear. instead it's going to sport the u. s. nike brand. the move comes as a shock to football fans in germany, who's seen their players in the us for the past. 70 years,

the german football association says the switch to nike was driven by financial and other concerns. us off to work this out. we've got mark meadows with us here in the studio from dw sports mark. i'm just trying to wrap my head around this. the german football association dumping a data is in favor of nike up the seems to be coming out of nowhere. what's going on? it was a massive surprise. yeah, i mean, you could tell that it was a surprise for everyone. apart from the jumping football federation because at the desk 9th, you didn't have any statements ready. i mean, added us, we contacted and they've kind of said, well, uh yeah, we're only hearing about this today. what's also interesting is the timing, the german men playing an important friendly against friends on, on, sat to day preparing for the whole european championship, saving germany in june and july. and that's the only last week just announced the new way kit, which was a pink kid type, quite controversial to me. i didn't have that color before,

but actually it's been something quite well apparently. and yet certainly then the german, if they come out with a, so it is a huge surprise. me, a d, this is an iconic german brand. right? uh, sports brand. what, what is the main reason for the german football federation? taking this step is basically money. i'm in the gym and i say i've had problems financially. partly due to cobit, obviously they were no firms in stadiums, but for 2 years would you have any matches. but it's also the fact that jimmy men's team and women's team haven't been very successful of late. obviously the men's team went out and woke up twice in the group stage. and that affects income. you know, so there's many shirts. you don't get as much prize money as if you win it. so they looked at it and they felt, well, nike are offering a $100000000.00 euros a year. and apparently at the that's really offering 50. and then it's a big difference. but what he's also stage, the seeing, he was reading between the lines that the dsb didn't actually go back to added us

and say, look, this is what nike is offered. so that's close to bit of confusion as well. and we'll see whether they, whether the, the sports things play better in nike. a wonder about the what about reactions to is move it. you say it's come of this as a surprise even for a for i did as a so indeed, i mean media this morning is full of this because they just could not believe it because as you say, are the best. and to me, teams is it's a mary's maiden haven't for 70 years. i mean actually id, that's the who settled added us. he said we invented the scribble stubs that you put into ro, soccer boots. and that is a part of the reason why the jimmy team was in the 1954 will cook only 9 years after the end of the 2nd will well so that the vac, closely linked. so it really is a huge surprise. i mean it's, it's a bit, it's a bit like, oh, laugh sholtes the gym, incense list suddenly driving a fold instead of driving a mercedes. it's just so, so fucking, i mean, fact the vice chancellor robot topic of the economy minister. he said this is basically not very patry all take the job and football association. so yeah,

people are really stoned and the german that they have basically have to go on twitter and defend themselves constantly over the last few hours saying look, we have to make this decision financially. it's a rather counter intuitive move though, or even think but, but the money. so i guess it, it talks. do you think? well, i received germany playing and does again. i think we will because this nike deal is from 2027 until 2030 full. so you compare the added us, we'll do everything they can to win this contract back in 2034. i bought friends who worked at the edit site to down by noon of the and there absolutely. still, you can just imagine the factor this morning really subdued. they will do everything they can. so in this contract back end of a humiliation mark medicine dw sports. thank you very much. i still watching dw news, just reminder of our top story, some breaking news us secretary of state mc, blinking is just landed in israel for talks with benjamin netanyahu. about garza,
