the, the, this is dw news line from berlin, appeals were home after suspected has really aris read on around. for testers, take to the streets of taylor on the after explosions near in the reading army base . no comment for me is real, but reading leaders play down the significance of the strikes. and ukraine says it shot down a long range of russian bomber for the 1st time. for me to agree is to help strengthen cubes, the air defenses, sending more patriot missiles. the

i'm here until berlin. thank you very much for joining us. thousands of taken to the streets into uranium capital t, ron to voice their anger over suspect it is really airstrike inside the country. the ringing officials say that the striking a military base near the city of his 500 in central run international leaders have appealed for call thousands of people on the streets of to ron, of making the message to israel. clear thank health signs, enchanted debt to israel was often a legit. it's rarely strike on a rainy and soil. the i've been doing this these pictures posted on social media showing and damaged military base. and it's for hong, after the attack, which cover the novel, the area is a major sense of military production. with the country's most important nuclear

enrichment facilitate located nearby. what does that used to be rainy and state media? it said there was no damage that was following the strikes, which is basically an iran life is based on whatever happens normally, there is nothing whatsoever out of the ordinary speaking at the g 7. so meeting, it's really on friday, us secretary of state onto the blinking made america's position clear what the g 7 is focused on. and again, it's reflected in our statement and in our conversation is our work to deescalate tensions. german foreign minister on elena bab, bulk called for cool heads. so how do we as the as the g 7, we have the site adhere to the clean post part, their sections and measures on the rainy every g, mom and civilian life. at the same time,

everything must be done to prevent that escalation. we don't foreseeable consequences for an entire region. so and again, so the united states, israel small cabinets, has been debating its responds to a large scale, the reigning attack last weekend. that came of the israel presumed strike albany rainy and diplomatic compound, but its hope friday mornings men knew this could be the last of to, to run indicated. it has no plans retaliation. the military, i know as marina maryland gave us, this assessment of the scale of the electorate is really response. it is very interesting if we compare it to a rainy and attack last saturday evening, sunday. as on sunday morning, it seems like both countries are in a de escalation spiral. so if you run made sure to launch an attack, so that wouldn't give is trial enough pre tax to counter attack,

or at least to launch a very serious a fact that could potentially damage iranian nuclear program or it's air bases. now the east riley attack is trumping that the essentially rubbing around the for good strategic choice. so it is interesting that both countries feel the need to respond but to respond in such a way that in the words of broder war against both countries were joined down by our correspondent benjamin alvarez gruber, in washington dc. so benjamin, there's been no word from these really government or military about the strikes. what is the less been saying so far? what us officials have been saying is, is that it was and is really missile strike the heyday of ron. that the target of this drug inside iran was not nuclear and well officials have sat here in the us. the washington was informed before this dr. secretary blinking declined to confirm

those reports when he was asked about it after the 7 for a ministers meeting in a to the only set and stressed several times that the u. s. was not involved in an offense. it's an interesting meet was the tally and 4 in minnesota, told reporters that the g 7 meeting company that is well informed the us before it's overnight attack on iran. now the strikes come as lawmakers in the us move a step closer to improving more aid for is a real but also for ukraine this weekend. what might happen at that low do for saturday afternoon? so that's right, that ukraine age bill create a critical hadley and the house of for present as is it today. and during the vote and for saturday speaker of the house, mike johnson will rely on the vote of democrats to get it through. and that's it very interesting in this case, because many republicans are increasingly reluctant to provide additional funding a to keep even call a full of the party calls from within the party to as the speaker of the house over

the supplemental r a growing. and the fact that mike johnson, in this case, will need democratic votes to get the $95000000000.00 for an agent on. bill's past is highly unusual in the deeply polarized house of representatives. so it is a crucial vote is ukraine. it will need this to defend itself against the russian aggression and also considering that the white house has been lobbying and has been pressing the congress for months not to get this package. finally approved, was you said there were seen some consensus among mainstream politicians but the same time for right republicans like major retailer green or already threatening to hours for public and how speaker johnson over these votes. so the question is, can you hang onto his job to that's a good question and the republican lawmakers did you just mentioned a headset that you would reduce spending a fully ukraine to 0. she has a cues, the speaker of the house, because the johnson of being controlled by the democrats. it won't be easy for johnson to form quite complicated,

bi partisan coalitions on saturday. because this package, of course, is not only help for ukraine, but also for raises. rarely invest some less cleaning publications who refused to back additional military aid if for israel. so it remains to be seen 1st. how this road will unfold and then tied to that will be how is some, a republican, some pretty allowed of republicans will react. and if they will continue pushing forward with trying to us and the speaker of the house of for present, well very contentious situation in washington that was benjamin over as group or in washington dc. thank you very much for your reporting. and here's looking at some other stories making headlines around the world or a man has set themselves on fire outside the court in new york or donald trump is on trial emergency. cruise took the victim away in the stretcher after police extinguished the flames. he said to be in critical condition, it's not clear why the man set himself a light the world's biggest election has begun in india,

where prime minister and arrange remotely seeking a 3rd term in office. nearly a 1000000000 people are eligible to take part over the next 6 weeks. 5 japanese workers have narrowly escaped a suicide bombing and pockets done the attack killed the bomber in karachi and wounded 3 passengers by police shot deadly accomplished of the attacker. the employees were targeted as they traveled to work, but were on hurt. foolish police of arrested 2 people suspected of attacking an ally of lead russian opposition leader election alone. the meaningful gulf was assaulted last month outside his home. in lithuania is capital luminous pollutants, prime minister says the person suspected of ordering. the attack has also been arrested. nieto has agreed to strengthen ukraine's air defenses, including sending more patriot missile systems you printing, present. folding. zalinski has repeatedly appealed to western allies for more help and has been needing needle ministers in brussels separately. ukraine says it has

shut down a long range russian bomber for the 1st time. but officials in moscow say the aircraft crashed in a sparsely populated area because of the function during a combat mission. meanwhile, russia for russian forces had been inflict instead he lost his own ukraine, allowing them to seize oregon positions in the east. have to major said backs, and the 1st year of the war, russian now seems to have the advantage. president vladimir putin believes he's forces have turned the tide in his favor. they're slowly seizing mor, ukrainian territory and damaging its economy with long range strikes. the suggest that the strategy is always the same. i need to show you better results. then the commanders in the neighboring states as a friend, looks back to us. and the general was, you need to show you that somehow your troops and moving forward. so if you don't show you these kinds of results or just say that you are holding your positions or

pending or you creating attacks, not losing any type of a tree. that is a bad result. and you are likely to be replaced most of the questions and setup the setup on doing it. for more than a year, the front line, at least in ukraine, has barely moved. the fiercest fighting is now taking place near the city of the russian forces are also trying to take tests if you are. that's new box mode, which was captured a year ago. to do so, they're using a simple tactic, an upset and it's absolutely in humane, brutal, and so on. with this tactic works, it's about it involves pushing through ukrainian defenses, despite heavy casualties on a w. give suited means relentless attacks by small, medium sized groups. but without any serious maneuvers when you old and without the support of the tank units or something come along. but i think they'll continue

these attacks because no one sees any of the more effective way, like deep water holes as possible at nissan of egypt and the russian armies facing equipment and weapons shortages. although the problem is not as serious as the ukraine inside. many of them in factories in russia have stepped up production in new ones being built on a ship and have a good example is the factory and types of stands which produces drones. there was absolutely nothing there before the war even joined the 1st year of the war. but since then they've built these plans to produce is huge amounts of sha had drones, which attract grainy and cities almost every day the, the, the, the, the. but despite the advantage and resources, the russian war machine is said to be struggling to replace its losses and all this

believe that big changes in the conflict around likely in the coming months. a settlement i've got nicholas, generally speaking, the russian strategy at the moment is to drag out. but fighting until november, we've slow advances to show that west russia will not suppose it's offensive, that it will advance further in november, which you will see who becomes with next us presidents. and will then begin to plan what it does next to somebody the what that started. so instead of shape, last until then, russia is expected to continue it's long ring strikes in frontal assaults with so there are casualties in ukrainian cities and them on its own soldiers helped may be on the way for ukraine in the shape of nita air defenses. and more aid from the us, but we as defense analyst got the human disk, if the pace of support is still slow too slow to give key of an advantage.

obviously. and i think that's what would we see of the prompt, and there are some, a bunch of the struggles on the ukrainian side, a given the, the problems in the personnel, the, the disproportional this proportions munition in the air defenses. we see that unfortunately, the aid is way too slow and it is, of course, a large part of the problem is, is that the us aid has been blocked for such a long time for months now in the us congress. so, so russia and this has allowed russia to, to continue pushing along the problem, but also to, to undermine the critical infrastructure and on their mind. the functions of this, the try to run through my do functions of the state, exhaust the, the disability of population. and also i've talked to, you train you on industrial capacity. so ukraine also has problems to, to defend itself. and finally, leave it with this. so for sebastian story that says he's broken his own record for

writing the biggest wave ever. the writing question to police in february this year, i thought of those surfing mecca and as that a prototype drove the recording to ride measure start. there's wave at a stony 28.57 meters in height is confirmed later this year. the monster wave would surpass the german surfers on previous record of 26 point one meters set 4 years ago. the amazing stuff. and here's a brief reminder of the top stories we're following you up for you at this hour before we go. or readings have protested, suspected is really drone strike on central around. israel has him commented on this reminds me of the city as fun which followed a reunion growing in rock and strikes in israel a week ago. and nato allies have agreed to provide ukraine with more air defense systems. the announcement was made after our special meeting of allied defense
