7:00 pm
the, the, this is due to be news, live it from berlin. tonight, the prime minister, it is real vowing to go into rafa no matter what benjamin at yahoo says that the army will enter the southern gaza city with or without a ceasefire deal with ha, also it coming up tonight, the you, it's tough cord rejects nicaragua is demands that germany stop selling arms is real . robert claims the german weapons are being used to a bet the genocide exhaust. and tonight will report from the democratic republic of congo, where after more than 20 years, you and peacekeepers are levy and handing over security for the congo leaves military. the
7:01 pm
library golf is good to have you with this on this tuesday and we begin with the words of the as rarely prime minister benjamin netanyahu says that his country's army will enter the southern gauze of city of rasa. regardless whether a ceasefire deal is reached with her moss speaking at a meeting with the families that is rarely hostages. today that in yahoo said that israel will not end the war until all of its goals have been achieved. including eliminating her moss battalions in ruffled a many had hoped that an agreement on a ceasefire could avert a rough or ground incursion and that remains the hope forbid. all right, let's go now the journal is valid, studied in tel aviv all these been covering this story for us. probably the words of the prime minister could they jeopardize what the less they sent to the last
7:02 pm
couple of hours looked like a, a plausible case for a ceasefire deal. well, how much is main demand to reach a deal and it has been like this. but since the end of the last truth actually is the end of the war ending the war means not entering rough uh, from what i understand. there is no one in the cabinet. the more cabinet that is willing to give us an operation. and rough uh, the continuation of the war, regardless of the political statements that we hear, they all know that the need to end disconnect from gaza because of what happened or looked over something. now in this case, nothing y'all or the other accounts are rough. i probably would jeopardize a deal. oh, unless how much gibbs up on that demand, at least for the 1st stage of the deal, the inventory and the stage where there really is to be the women, children, elderly and the wound. and also female sold soldiers would be conducted, but that's in case we reach that you should deal. i'm not
7:03 pm
a deal that includes every one of the hostages. that's something that the is right . officials believe that is possible. we just need to wait and see what the, how much would accept this current proposal. so the question comes in, why would the prime minister make that statement that he did, and why would he make it right now as one of the last 24 hours have been a fee to get a lot of pressure on the sending off from the right we hard items like motor time big, the warning him that agree to the end of the war means the independent government. so i think nothing else of obligated to kill the public, including of course, the government, members that he's heading to. why the continuation of the war and a rough operation any way with or without to deal as he stated that an hour ago, by the way, i attended a separate conference for the speak about it for a minute. that's cather, families of family hostages. i believe that believe the only minute trooper can bring back the loved one and they had
7:04 pm
a meeting with us in the off today. i asked them how they felt after it. and they told me that they felt inc cards, but uh by one department. its not told that concerns as well. so from what we understand from nothing else so obligated to kill them and also his cabinet members that's i will continue this war as i promised before. and the us secretary of state entity blinking he is due to visit is real. we wonder, does the united states have enough leverage to pressure? is real not to attack ross. we remember the last time in to the blinking met with benjamin engine, yahoo! benjamin at yahoo! and public and said we're going into rafa, you know, like it or not. it is i think can be improved. do you have a lot of leverage on it as well? and i've been, we've been seeing that for the last uh, step more in the lead us support in the united the nation to go to golf course, meet the this berkeley right now to block or try to block at least the icpc from
7:05 pm
the sink warrants. and the case is ready to official and they need also u. s. military 8, of course, that to continue this war and face of the threats made it from the north, from the law and also from the ran as you've been seeing the last couple of weeks from what we understand according to sources from the government. the us is not internally against an operation and rough, uh, but they are demanding that is right, these back to wait as much as possible. ports of the building and 1st then deal with the hospitality and target to try another major attack. thus, with the new year is that the relatives of the hostages told you today that they were encouraged by what is happening right now. i'm wondering how does the is really public, how do they feel about benjamin and younger and, and out of also about the prospect of a ceasefire deal. they
7:06 pm
need to be found in the houses of the believe in the military pressure. there is disagreement about that between the families of the hostages. there are 2 forms for them to let just clarify this, but we've seen a lot of processing the, a 3 led by the founders of the hostages of the other for him to connect with them. and telling us any auto group, the word processing against the government, even before october 7, know this definitely has weights in israel and that's the time goes on. these really public or these ready to public news is hope of victory in this. and of course, that's what they're demanding. now the majority is opposing the end of the ward reward into the and they see that they can affect a how much the person people, but really to give up. that's good. okay. definitely journalist binding
7:07 pm
sliding the latest from tel aviv rolling. thank you. we apologize for the quality of the audio in that connection. there are the united nations relief agency for palestinians this morning that even though more aid is now reaching gaza, any rock a military operation could severely disrupt vital distribution efforts? the crossing at rafa a vital lifeline for guidance that could soon be under threat. famine is looming for more than a 1000000 people here. the un estimates billions of $1.00 and $8.00 are necessary in the coming months. israel says a is flowing the was the last few weeks. the amount of humanitarian aid going into gaza has significantly increased in the coming days. the amount of 8 going into gaza will continue to scale up even more food, water, medical supplies, shelter equipment,
7:08 pm
and other 8 more of it is going into gaza than ever before. so far, aid has entered cause of the land at the air off and using the egyptian port of lariche freight trucks, then head for the roof, a crossing is real, has announced it's temporarily opening other crossings at areas and the so called gate $96.00, which allow aid into northern garza without a dangerous drive through the conflicts out and for us is building a floating, a peer off of causes, mediterranean coast that will allow ships to deliver a directly at a cost of more than $300000000.00. but the united nations world food program says that getting food to people who need it is complex, especially given ongoing airstrikes and showing we don't have enough truck. so under the current circumstances where we don't have a safety where we don't have enough trucks coming into gaza to deliver where we have one check point for now, going into the noise was only a few trucks going and we're not operating at the scale that we would like the
7:09 pm
efforts that are already underway would be some fairly disrupted if israel does mount a full scale ground. defensive on rough uh, making deliveries even more dangerous for aid workers and goals and a like. well, as we reported us, secretary of state against the blinking is in the middle east. i asked the journalist kareem, elgar har in cairo, if blinking will be able to push for more age for, gosh, while he says it is more a telling you the law states, but he says it's by ponder enough and she says some things like to improve the conflicting for humanitarian cuz i know i know said there is a message, so i think to find the status. this is basically we need to make sure that these really doesnt came to any terry to focus on the agent, to make sure that the gets to all the people i talked to you initially was working with the issue to get
7:10 pm
a few. and she's saying that to get to that improved in the last. ringback week, but the problem is that lots of this it doesn't reach the accessibility, it's been a big problem. and so she was saying the only things that would solve this problem at the end he's going to be a ceasefire. that would be the relief for terry's of the issue because that was green malware. how are you there? reporting from kyra is a quick look down some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. that you went back to the special criminal court in bunk. we have issued an arrest warrant for the central african republic. former president francois was agent. that relates to the possible crimes against humanity committed by the military, between 20092013 was easy to seize power in a 2003 cou before being overthrown. a decade later, in the united states, pro palestinian demonstrators have escalated their protests at columbia university . they barricade in hamilton hall,
7:11 pm
well known for being occupied during demonstrations against the vietnam war. in the 1960 columbia university has begun suspending active as a refuse to take down a 10th encampment on campus and in their protest. any record has fine former us president donald trump, $9000.00 us dollars for violating a gag order. 9 times the order was imposed to stop him from intimidating witnesses . trump is on trial for allegedly falsifying records to cover up money, paid it to a porn actress to buy her silence. busy about an alleged sexual encounter to the you is a top court has rejected a request by nicaragua to order germany, to stop sending weapons and other military aid to israel for the international court of justice in the hague road. that legal conditions for making such an order had not been met. the garage was arguing that by supplying the weapons germany was facilitating genocide and godson during the hearings to one governments. germany
7:12 pm
said that it had barely exported weapons to israel since the offensive started following the october 7th terror attacked by we live amongst actually be like alright, let's get some reaction. beginning with the head of germany's legal team at the court, the german govern government has always get its actions in this conflict. to do justice to the legitimate inches of both parties as best possible within the framework of international law. we consider this approach to has been assigned by the i c j today. when you arrived was it bassinger to the netherlands? it said the final ruling by the court could yet be in nicaragua, was favor actually take it out with the other senior, suspecting a bit more, but not the listing sort of thing. points out the course
7:13 pm
materials they have at this present moment, including dictate can position the mission. alright, let's talk more about what happened today. i'm doing now by michael becker. he's assisted professor of international human rights law at trinity college in dublin. he's a former legal advisor to a judge at the international court of justice. mr. becker, it's good to have you with this. you know, the courts president today said that based on the factual information and the legal arguments that were presented, the court concludes that the circumstances are not as such as to require the exercise of its power. what does that mean? the court agrees with what germany was claiming here. well, it's, it's, it's not quite as cut and dry as that for one thing is, it's interesting to note this was not a closed call for the court to. this was a 15 to one decision ruling against nicaragua, as request here. but what's i think significant is that this was
7:14 pm
a decision turned on the facts. so we have very little legal reasoning in the court's decision. this really came down to the court, finding the germany during its presentation earlier this month had put forward sufficient factual information to really undermine or call into question. many of nicaragua was allegations of accusations, some of which appeared to be based on incorrect information. and maybe came off a little bit like exaggerations, which i think didn't play very well in front of the court. and bearing that in mind this case however, it is not over, correct? absolutely, this was only about seeking what we call provisional measures. so kind of in term relief, while the case is pending in nicaragua, was asking the court to order germany among other things, to immediately seize all a weapons shipments. arms shipments to israel was quite important here. and this was in your leading part of germany's defense was to say, well, actually,
7:15 pm
since at least late october we have not been sending any significant amount of war weapons to israel. so germany having made that rubbers a representation to the court. and i think it actually does put a constraint on germany in terms of changing course. i'm presuming that, but you're absolutely right. this was only about the provisional measures. the court continues. germany will have now a chance to challenge the court's jurisdiction, added disability, which they surely will do. and if it goes ahead, nicaragua will have the opportunity to put forward a much fuller record. that challenge is some of germany's assertions at this stage, about the robust framework the germany has in place to provide oversight over his weapon sales. so that means germany could still be found to help facilitate you decide to engage the correct that's correct and it's not only about facilitating genocide or failing to prevent a genocide,
7:16 pm
which is probably the slightly lower bar to clear. this is important. this isn't only a case like the south africa, israel cases isn't only about the genocide convention. nicaragua also claims that germany is in violation of international humanitarian law by doing things or failing to do certain things to ensure respect for international humanitarian law by israel. so by the idea is that by sending weapons to is really are facilitating violations of international humanitarian law. and that's an issue that will remain the case and it will now be from the garage was to try to show which they weren't able to do with this initial stage. try to show that all the, germany's representations about her germany exercises a high degree of due diligence to prevent weapons shipments from being used to violate international law. garago now has the burden trying to show that actually as applied or has implemented that, that regular regulatory framework isn't enough. let me pick up on that. the other
7:17 pm
case you mentioned with south africa, south africa is accusing israel of perpetuating genocide any cause. the court has called on israel to do everything in its power to prevent genocide. so what does that say to you? does it say that israel could eventually be found guilty as well? that the decision on that question in the south africa versus israel case is a long ways away. we now have a 2 sets of provisional measures in that case. so unlike the nicaragua case where the court rejected that request, the court has twice indicated provisional measures against israel. and the last time i think the rhetoric, the language from the court was a much stronger, really deeply concerned that one of the judges refers to all the alarm bells of, of genocide going off here. so. so i think we don't know what the outcome is going to be. in that case, it's very difficult to prove genocidal intent. it's very difficult to establish
7:18 pm
genocide at the level of the state that said, i think that it's probably the case that some of israel's actions, even since south africa 1st filed this case at the end of december, has actually made south africa's case stronger rather than we can in south africa, sorry. do you think the rulings that we have seen so far? do you think they are, they are going to shape the way that genocide will be defined in the future? and that's a great question. and i think that this case provides an important opportunity for the court to perhaps revisit the way it's approach to genocide in the past. and it's also the case that the situation in gaza raises aspects of the law of genocide that haven't really been litigated in front of an international court before. right now for example, there's a lot of attention on the situation in starvation or famine in gaza and how that might play into a finding of genocide. so this case will almost truly develop the law of genocide.
7:19 pm
but whether it develops the law of genocide in a way that creates a slightly more liberalized regime or, or relax is very exacting standards to establish genocide or not. so that's why we're going to have to watch as far over not only the next few months, but in fact a years before there's a determination in that case. okay, michael becker, we appreciate your time and your analysis today. thank you. thank you for now to the more in ukraine where at least 2 people have been killed and several wounded in the latest russian air strikes on our keys. ukraine. second city, which is close to the russian border has increasingly in the target of attacks in western ukraine. at least 5 people were killed in 30 wounded, in a russian missile attack on the key blacks. the port of desta, one of the buildings badly damaged, was this law school, which is popularly known as the harry potter castle of odessa. with the front line
7:20 pm
situation worse and in ukraine has been stepping up recruitment efforts. as part of the new mobilization law, keith has stopped issuing passports and providing consular services for military age med. our next report looks at what this means for ukrainians abroad, including those here in germany to the q outside. the ukranian passport service in cologne, germany, ukrainian man hid their faces from the camera, trying to get their documents before the new law on mobilization came into force without success. the passport office said it was experiencing a technical failure. that meant that not only draft invaders, but all ukrainians of military age could not obtain documents. so he left the country legally before russia invaded ukraine, his son will soon be 17 and plants, the study of how the family would like to go back prospect. they defeated both my sons and my passports are ready,
7:21 pm
but i cannot get them in ukraine. they say your passport is in germany, and in germany they say we're not giving it to you. while we are one of the name of the technical problems that ukrainian passport services abroad coincided with the for an ministry's announcement, that man of mobilization age would be able to obtain passports only in ukraine. starting on may 18th, all male citizens, if you crane who are abroad, will be required to register for military service. however, it's not yet clear exactly how to do this outside the country and what documents they'll have to submit. meanwhile, lawyers say all mail ukrainian citizens, including those who have lived abroad since birth, are subject to the draft. the german government has not commented on keith's decision to stop providing these consumer services. but the interior ministry has said that you create a young man would not be deprived of refugee status in germany. it's mine, as the tennessee says,
7:22 pm
i'm confident that this will not affect the status of refugees from ukraine who need protection, regardless of whether they are women. who are the vast majority of such refugees or men. that's what this state is, is valid directly throughout the european union, precisely because of the flight from the russian war of aggression. so it should not affect it speak that most disposition is the task. but when dw asked whether ukrainian man could receive german documents with an expired, ukrainian passport, ministry said this would be announced later. ukraine's government meanwhile says that ukrainian men have not only rights but also responsibilities, including protecting the state. and key of says it is necessary to regulate the situation when many men of military age live abroad. on the other hand, poland says it will help return ukrainian men of conscription age when their passports expire, if keep requested into the democratic republic of congo. now where the un
7:23 pm
peacekeeping mission is leaving after 25 years of departure requested by the congo leaves authorities. and that is worrying some people, especially in re looked areas like the high plateau of south cube where in security persist dw, as paul mosher. he reports tonight from eastern d, r. c. it looks like the commodities armies are filed the season and the fights with one of the many groups. so bearing thinking says keep but this is an exist size. they are learning was again from pakistani peacekeepers before the off to continue and the home. ready around that a 3rd to show us my man are learning from a new sco alimony school and we're preparing for him. a news goes departure and i printed a bunch of them. so we're learning what we'll have to do after they leave it. i think you're depending on when you and they've run through many basic techniques
7:24 pm
together and by the end of april, the 120 basically for us we leave the base things if you guys are from you can get to the communities military. the reason that i quoted you was a repeat, these training includes accusation. so as the payments of sort just that i read, but the departing team c's. and what day do we are getting the if we already see troops, we've been conducting that training for about 15 days. now. we've bring them in the basic one bedroom, basic uh for the uh, uh, normal safety precautions and did our turn link handling with the logos. and they are already since they have the logos. and if you already see employee, their logos in, they are better than most and with a little bit of customs and traditions, says it's a before leaving. and this can pulls up like just any contingent has been, you have to protect since 2020. now some 2500 to year is it for the kids or
7:25 pm
coming that conflict which found up again in 2019 with fresh violence between differential called groups. so then i've been forced from that homes. and mainly in the camp i'll scab to see the peacekeepers defaults minnesota fema. visually, we are very sorry. what was that? what we're sorry to seem a new sco leave for about, but if you need to see, because we're worried that in security will return a little excited to safety is up. we fled here even though the congolese military was in our village and i found a whole lot, so we have no assurance that they will be able to protect us. like i'm a news. go, did a bundle with dish. is there any so just leaving these relates to the chevy for a base for the know when you score he's leaving. come go. because the government ask them to go. so you need that schifflet's or these by to more than 20 years. things the country. so you install jail, so it'd be gone from south cable by the end of april and from the rest of the
7:26 pm
country by the end of the year. when he got the news, spoke with the democratic republic of congo is newly elected president felix, she, security. he was in berlin for talks last weekend. and one of the issues discussed was the exploitation of his country's vast natural resources. it depends just, you know, the b as it's about the plundering of resources in the democratic republic of congo . i think so, obviously certain amounts of national companies in industrialized countries that were complicit in this. it don't and it's up to the countries. but most of these multinational, the, it's up to them to put the pressure on those companies to start with this. and this is the trade shows they're supposed to get people getting the cause of it. so, so going that's a nice it. and you can find that for the interview on our website and dw dot com and on youtube, you're watching the w news of next hour. all the series revenue looks at. sean has big plans to sell more electric cars in europe. i'll be back at the top of the hour
