the, the, this is the w news. why, from berlin, french prime minister gabriella. tell votes in a poem entry election that he's century, as are expected to lose duma. reading the pens far right. national rally. but can they, when a majority or will there be a post election power struggle? also coming up, it was orange. you for you in berlin as the netherlands knocked turkey out of the european championship porter finals, leaving germany sizable turkish, the asper, downcast, the

unlike local welcome france is voting in the 2nd and final round of snap parliamentary elections. voters are casting ballots that could produce the country's 1st 4, right government. since world war 2 were reading the pens, anti immigration, national rally stands, a chance of winning a majority for the 1st time. but the outcome remains on certain rise of the far right. national riley has been the main talking point in this campaign. let's see how france got here and what's at stake for the nation and the rest of the world. today's votes started with a crushing defeat for president emmanuel and crawls renaissance party at the hands of the far right and europe and elections. to clarify the political situation, he dissolved parliament and called a snap legislative pole. a gamble that the country was not ready to vote in a far right government. a gamble that seemed increasingly risky after the far right

national rally easily took the lead in the 1st round of voting last sunday. the question now is whether they'll win an outright majority in the run off enough to rule without forming a coalition. that possibility frightens many and inspired more than 200 centrist and left wing candidates to pull out of the 2nd round earlier this week. to avoid splitting the anti national rally vote. the mood in paris has been both anxious and angry. the 16 this is, your decision by my call isn't thought through. it's immature. he shot himself and a foot shot and the feet of all the french. just put everyone into this impossible situation. i'm plunged everyone into a deep mess. were all on the same mess on it was don't, i'm getting. i'm supposed to be now headboard items, people are just really fed up and deeply frustrated. given that under president mccord's 2 terms,

we've seen an explosion of the far right. even though one of the promises of the president in 20172022 was to set up a barrage against the far right on the call for his nap elections was meant to help the governing centrist against the far right. but had the unintended side effect of revitalizing the french left was form the new coalition, overcoming decades of pickering and disagreements. the left during coalition called the new popular front, pulled behind the national riley in the 1st round, but still well ahead of maxwell's parties. on the far right campaigns largely on an anti immigration platform and on pocket book issues, pledging to lower energy taxes for instance. but if it comes to power, it's historic animosity to the european union. it's a nato could have major international effects in france for the far right to arrive in power and such a major. this is the 2nd biggest economy within,

within the european union. and this is one of the world's biggest ministry powers. it's gotten involved in ukraine is involved in africa. it's, uh, it's as country that, that, that really, you know, projects itself will be on this board. no matter what happens macro and will still be president. his term runs until 2027. but in the event of a right wing victory for a hung parliament where no party or coalition gets a majority, his powers will be diminished. and he'll be stuck with a new government for at least a year. the minimum before he can see a radically dissolved parliament and call new elections again. earlier i spoke to dw correspondence. sonya found the car in paris. i asked her about the likelihood of the national rally winning an absolute majority as well. this is an absolute pivot to deal floating today in france with the hot right and i should ready, really and an unpleasant president position of strength going into the 2nd and

final round or 14. but we have seen and we some days frantic efforts by the left wing a line so new popular front and my call center. so lines to really block the far right to this strategy has been just kind of withdrawal candidates from 3 wave on offs and uniting behind the remaining container that has the best chance to block to defeat the, the product. and i shall candidates, and this seems to be paying off so far. the opinion polls show that the natural riley may get just above 200 seats and parliaments. that's the wind short of the $289.00 seats required for an absolute majority. but that'll still a lot of unknowns to be one big concern is that not all of my call centers, allies have united behind the strategy to block the far right. we've heard from lawmakers who don't equate to the left with the fault, right. in terms of extremes, policies that are concerns that this could prevent some central assault us today from voting for the left and run off against the far right. and so i think a lot today depends on where the voters would heat the school. i mean,

3 bodies to block the fall, right? really whole that noises. i'm multiple candidates. what really far move from their initial choice in the 1st one. so here we're hearing the campaigns been marked by threats and even some physical violence. what can you tell us? or that's right, i've been discomforting. has been, you know, really kind of shorted intense and really polarizing we've heard from interior minister general demo says 51 candidates or the deputies and party activists have been physically attacked so far by people of varying backgrounds. the french media had been reporting about a spike in heat speech and waste of incidence across front during this campaign. to give you just a couple of examples that are reports of pamphlets targeting black people that have appeared in mailboxes in a virus. some of recently in the southern city of, of you know, there is a locally bakery that report to be hired. an apprentice from the ivory coast. that bakery was started with the waste of slogans and set on fire makes what seemed really expressed concerns that the surge of you know,

support for the far right now seems to be making some people comfortable with using races and 0 field for big language openly in public life, we've also seen a few candidates off the far right and i should greatly be and goes to control the see some of them posting hate messages, reese, a speech and social media post. i'm to add to all this, the fields of violence tonight and fire with some of the cities regardless of the outcome of the world security here has already been tied to the olympics. it's been based up for the tonight with more than $30000.00 offices on the ground. so the 2nd wonderful thing is certainly taking place in a very charged atmosphere. again dw, so sonya federal court in paris now to some of the other stories making news around the world at this hour, at least 16 people had been killed in and these really air strike on a you in school and gaza according to the almost run health ministry, the school in lucy rod was reportedly sheltering displays, palestinians. these really military says it's aircraft quote,

march football now in england have beaten switzerland in the 1st of 2 quarter finals at the european championships. the match proved to be a nother nail biter ending one all in regular time with no goals and extra time the match went down to a penalty shoot out. trent alexander arnold converted the final spot, kicked a window, shoot out for england 5 to 3. and in the 2nd matter of the evening, the netherlands beat turkey to advance to the semi finals. the turkish team took the lead early on in the 1st half and fearfully defended it into the 2nd. but in the 76 minute, the ducks turn the game around, scrolling once to draw even then again, 5 minutes later with an own girl goal by a turkish player. the final score to one to let's bring in danielle parks alone and some d. w. sports done, there you were at the olympics. you had them in berlin that last night for the

netherlands. tricky match. i imagine it was electric. yeah, it was absolutely thunderous. it was passed. oh, there's thousands of people there, the stadium holes over 70000 people. and it was totally full. now, the majority of those fans or turkish fans actually because we talked about it before. this tournament is almost like a home tournament for turkey. there's a large turkish population in germany, especially in berlin. and they bring some of the most fantastic atmospheres leading up to games. now also the novel is one of the fan groups that bring a lot of, you know, the orange trans going last thing going right. we saw everything last night now leading, optimized, there was a little bit more tension. there's a lot more police presence than i've seen at other matches, especially because there's a lot of political tensions going on off the pitch air. they've gone was in attendance. so they were tardies police, that's police and german police, but to be honest, the atmosphere was pretty peaceful, and the fans were just wanting to have

a lot of fun and celebrate football me. in the 1st semi final, spain will take on french. what can we expect there? well, spain so far is the only thing. that's one, all of their games in the tournament and they've been in terms of performance and consistency. the most impressive side, i think they've. oh good. yeah, definitely. so they're very good. obviously we know at possession they can possess the ball, but what the frontier has added to his team. i think we talked to us before as well is that he added verticality and directness. they can get the wall fast out wide to their players, like nika, williams. you mean, lemme like these players can hurt you one be want to now they possess with the intent to score goals and that makes them very dangerous. that being said, they're coming up against friends who although have been criticized for being lack luster. have so much quality in their side. now the quite can is, can they start to click at the right moment because against, when it's going to be the hardest test they've had?

do they have the players, can they get the results? yes, i mean, they need to be a little bit better in their attack. you know, they haven't even score and a goal from open play in the tournament to own goals and one penalty shot. so hopefully friends can start to click and we see a very good game. and of course it's the brits and the dodge in the 2nd village. i mean in glenn is another one of those sizes that we talked about. um, you know, a lot of quality favorites come in to the tournament, but questions about whether girls southgate can really get the most out of his players. they play a little bit pragmatically, now we can say whatever we want. but under southgate and for tournaments they've gotten to the semi finals 3 times. so the results speak for themselves and they have those layers like a jew, bellingham, for capable of coming in and really changing the game in an instant, even if they're playing. maybe not so well. now the netherlands, it's kind of an outside or they've always had good squads, but they've kind of under achieved. and this, this time they have

a very solid team. and what's happened is they've grown into the turn of it. so now they're really starting to click at the right time. we saw them yesterday, you know, fight from behind to get a wind in a very difficult stadium where their, their friends were definitely not the majority. so they've shown that have the character to overcome the difficulties, and they have the talent both in attack and in defense to potentially have an upset . so listen, i lost my bragging rights into the very beginning. i was predicting a germany france final. that clearly is not going to happen, so i'm going to put you on the spot. okay. when the absolute last whistle sounds, who walks away a winner? i think spring just because they play the best football. they have a balance side and they have experience. but that mix of use players who can come in and change a game because we still have that excitement. so i think in this one span, but honestly i wouldn't be surprised in good scripts through you're not saying spain because your last name is barcelona by any chance?

no, i use a daniel, barcelona, dw sports many, many thanks. as always. thank a spaniards not only celebrating advancing to the year 202470 finals. a major party has just gotten underway in pamplona. the san for meeting festival kicked off with the ceremonial firing of a rocket from the balcony of city hall. the festival. same is with the running of the bowls is dedicated to pamplona, his patron saint, and dates back to the end of the 16th century. it attracts hundreds of thousands of tourists from spain. and a book. reminder of the top story, the following for you french voters, are casting ballots in a parliamentary election that could produce the countries for as far right government since world war 2 were reading the pens and the migration national rally stance. a chance of winning a majority for the 1st time, but president emmanuel nicole, has collaborated with left as candidates in an effort to block

a far right majority will ended there. but stay with the shift is up next. looking at which areas of tech are actively recruiting women and how some are holding their skills with youtube videos. unlike the local, i'll be back with more news at the beginning of the next step. each tells my story. of the people who planned me build dedicated van lines to me. i am not too dumb, depending on the online made in the centuries they billed me, they created something i had to watch as i work destroyed. i have month my city's days for centuries and to come to.
