this is deja news coming to you live from berlin new airstrikes pound syria's rebel held on playbook it's in a hotel the u.n. chief retreats demands for immediate cease fire and pull out of sorts which has been going on for more than a week has killed an estimated five hundred people including scores of children also the program on the americans conservatives all set to vote today on this whole hog for schoolish and deal she also presents a picture germany's possible future government and why is one of the most outspoken

critics among them. and denied she would be a hundred guns are still missing a week after an attack by suspected boko haram extremists on a school in the north you have an exclusive report on one family's desperate search for their daughter. cullen welcome. reports from syria indicate at least ten civilians have been killed in fresh air strikes in the besieged enclave of huda near the capital damascus rights groups also see a suspected killer in gas attacks has injured seven people in the area meanwhile the u.n. secretary general is demanding a security council resolution with a cease fire the implemented immediately saying quote it's high time to stop this hell on earth the rebel held areas reeling from strikes by russian backed student

forces for over a week. that was supposed to be a break in the bombing instead eastern hooter's first responders back plucking life from the rubble. it's been a long and deadly week and this rebel held on klav and at this hospital doctors a seeing the worst of it most of the patients have grown up in the seven year war medical supplies are running out now for these children any truce cannot come soon enough this is a matter of life because every hour counts at the moment if the cease fire has been agreed at the u.n. security council there's no reason why it should be able to come into effect immediately. without people carrying food and medicine with. every day we see more. hospitals destroyed. goes on the more. for days the syrian regime has been bombarding the suburb of the capital

trying to wipe out the rebels who control it just a few kilometers along the road to damascus it feels like a different planet east and once looked like this empty street speak to a fear of mortar shells fired from the nearby rebels. since mortar started to hit the area no one has been on the street and if you find anyone they're probably going only to do something very important or to buy stuff. in downtown damascus signs of life but little hope but a truce will end this war. the truce is useless i mean after thirty days everything will return to the way it was. whatever happens it's a chance for vital supplies to reach the cities desperately hungry and it's injured . turkey has requested the extradition of the syrian kurds politician who was taken

into custody in prague over the weekend on a turkish arrest warrant salim muslim was once head of syria's main kurdish political party the p y d uncorrect considers a party to be an offshoot of the kurdish separatist group in turkey the p.k. k. its alkie or the as a terrorist organization a turkish court has charged salim with sedition. this man is on turkey's most wanted list and president arrow want is willing to pay up to get him a million dollar reward was offered for sale a muslim's capture and he was arrested in prague at the request of turkish interpol whose name is the former leader of the p y d and ankara says this party is the syrian offshoot of the p.t.a. which has waged insurgency on turkish soil for decades turkey has banned the kurdish group as a terrorist organization or to one is now hoping for muslims extradition.

they broke up the religious community they told this nation apart. that's why we are fighting these terrorists otherwise we do not have a problem with our kurdish brothers. our problem is with terrorists. muslim was wanted in connection with a two thousand and sixteen car bombing in ankara which killed thirty people the attack was claimed by the p.k. k. while muslim denies any involvement d.w. spoke to him exclusively just one week before his arrest turkey says that the why peachy and that the. that these are terrorist organizations. they say that they are no different from the p.k. which we know that many governments around the world have classified as

a terrorist organization the links are strong aren't they know it's not true and one where you yourself though once with the p.k. no i wasn't really an engineer and so there. was an engineer and didn't even want to use it. to do with why is it then that for example that p y d has said his arrest was any legal and immoral act by czech authorities if extradited he would be the most high profile kurds in turkey captivity in nearly twenty years. joining me now as correspondent robin meade vandalism back he's in the syrian town of call bani which is muslims hometown not to me what have been the reactions in co bonnie decided muslims the rest. then the christian go back into

a very unhappy with the situation they see it as the silence of europe very dunning . basically down i'm very happy with this and i say housefull sold at politicians like him will raise his voice against isis and played a role saw in raising more support for the fight against isis incl bonnie does now he's being arrested in europe now as we could you know report sali denies he has any connections with the turkish separatist group the p.k. kate why was to be then so keen to have him arrested while saleh muslim was storing to europe and it was raising the voice and support of aspirin and he was talking about civilians being killed in africa by the turkish attacks and i think so turkey is very unhappy with this i mean there was an interpol warrant before he wasn't arrested before it was going to europe before and now that turkey is carrying out this operation in africa and it doesn't want to have more voices that speaking out about afi and civilians are being killed in athens so that's why turkey is now raising also this arrest warrant that of the what do they have a ticket claims

a citizen codes on link to took a separatist the p.k. kates reese they see as a terrorist group what are the connections between the two on both sides of the border. it's a lot of use the there across the border in occurs in syria and turkey i mean curse in general they don't recognize these borders. but does doesn't mean that there's a justification for a second occurs in africa because it was not the not one from the word starkey it was themselves the syrian use not circular she's not a turkish citizen so that's why our courts and syria say like why you want to arrest a syrian he's not even from turkey so turkey doesn't have a legal justification to arrest him and also he's a politician an engineer i mean he was even himself once in turkey it was meeting with turkish government officials several years ago on the relations are still good so to curse in syria they see just as something political. now as you mentioned not only the good to the city have played a key to it in fighting the so-called i s islamic states but not be under attack

from to forces do feel let down now by the u.s. and its allies. it's the other shia led on the coast versus in good civilians are being killed and also nothing but all the focus is on good ta stopping the violence and good job but there's not a lot of support for something divine is an f. three because everybody knows that that's where he could protect his border quite easily without attacking a city so that's what hurts are a little bit upset because europe and even american how they don't have a very clear voice to stop the attacks and i think although civilians are dying. right it doesn't even begin to read in kabbani incidentally very much for that there were. one of the holiest sites in christianity has closed its doors to visitors amid a growing dispute between church leaders and israeli authorities the children of the holy says that is where christians believe jesus was buried and resurrected church leaders in jerusalem say their kills did to protest against new taxation

policies and a proposed new property law which they're calling a land grab by the israeli state has. barring access to christianity's holiest site this wrist step was a necessary act of protest church leaders said in front of the church's shuttered doors they denounced a new bill being considered by israeli lawmakers calling it a further attempt to weaken christianity in jerusalem. the systematic a call for abuse a gracious religion no it's here. is to be not. just. the property of the issue but there was. the political future playing out on these walls began with attempts by jerusalem authorities to collect tax on commercial properties owned by the church. sunday's protest centers on

a new land law which would allow the state to confiscate property the church recently sold to private developers. the bill's proponents say it's needed to protect residents and accuse church leaders of self interest. we see this is a very cynical move from the church where we're talking about something affecting their pockets and nothing else and them wanting to turn this into religious conflict using terms like persecution visitors to the church of the holy sepulcher were left disappointed on sunday thousands each year traveled to see the place where christians believe jesus body was buried. it's a bit of it that i wanted to go because mike you really captured the game that went to it yet you go inside and check and you know as a tourist still over there it is not possible to have hunted because i did not know that it was going to be close and i came to jerusalem mainly to save

a child's life which is. the root of christian thought. i mean the protestants really lawmakers postponed a planned vote on the new land bill. but christian authorities say the church will remain closed indefinitely until then this is as close as worship is will get. joining me now is our correspondent on the train the she's at the church of the holy settle in jerusalem john what's the scene right now at the church where you are. well i mean i'm standing here right in front of the door just behind me you'd probably see a couple people standing there a lot of tourists and visitors are coming here all morning wanting to know what's going on some have been informed about what's going on they want to know of course when does it open again some are very disappointed that they can't this is it because it's one of the major christian holy sites as are many pagans just come to jerusalem to just visit this church here behind me. i also talked to one of the

gatekeeper so to speak at the keyhole this is one of two muslim families and they are also around here they're saying they're waiting to instructions to see you know whether they will open the church but at the moment it's not known when the churches are deciding to be open disclosed or behind me so why does a city want to change a situation which has been in place for such a long time. but this if you have to risk is saying that there are two issues here one is start at the city of jerusalem said there has been in place for a long time extension for the churches to pay taxes now they want to change that they're saying. the transition city taxes for the commercial business for you know hotels the pilgrims the hospitals houses and retail business for the churches this has been in place at least since the optimum times and there's another issue here

a draft legislation that was supposed to be. talked about yesterday on sunday in a committee at the knesset that it's long before it would become a law that would explode right that the church has sold to private investors and that is where the churches are very angry about some all of the churches have compared that even to. yeah. and i think we seem to have lost a new claim when she was speaking to us from jerusalem but of course we will return to her in a later show she was talking to us from the church of the holy seven in jerusalem. ok listen take a look at some other stories making news around the wild at least five people have been reported killed after severe thunderstorms across central parts the united states the storms that a tornado is and cause widespread flooding in kentucky and tennessee several states

have declared disaster emergencies. true independence demonstrators have clashed with catalan police in barcelona while demonstrating against a visit by spin's king philippe supporters off catalunya split from spain have criticized the monarchy for allegedly failing to pay enough attention to the region and to promote political dialogue. crystal joins me now on one of germany's best known corporations family owned in large pots by a chinese company that's all right i'm reading it was a quite a surprise we're talking about carmaker dimer of course and leave the head of the chinese automotive company last week mr lee and onst that his company had acquired almost ten percent of stock making it the carmakers largest shareholder the news

cost quite a stir here in germany as china's investments and industrial icon are often viewed with suspicion and i would get some market reactions here in a moment first more on diverse new major shareholder. it's a rags to riches tale the son of a rice farmer genies found early shoe food is china's tenth richest man according to forbes magazine the fifty four year old started out with a refrigerator parts factory in the one nine hundred eighty s. back then though the sector was strictly state run inevitably also richie's shut these factory down but by then lee had already made a small fortune and so he simply switched industries producing first motorbikes and then cars as lee himself said all you needed for a car were four wheels and two sofas an insight that for several years reflected the quality of his vehicles but just two decades later chile was selling around one

point two million cars a year in china making it the nation's knowledge as to independent car maker in two thousand and ten live bought up struggling automaker volvo from ford lord money into the swedish plants and then with great success brought a volvo on to the chinese market since then lee shoe fu has held a central position among international carmakers and now he's invested in dima acquiring just under ten percent of the luxury car company the state of q wait until now the largest shareholder has been bumped into position to with six point eight percent followed by rent. the rest is divided up among small investors. leases he's not reducing his commitment to volvo he says buying the stake in dima allows him to focus on the technologies of the twenty first century electro made military and driverless cars huge challenges that no manufacturer can tackle alone

. especially given the invaders from outside describes google and other companies encroaching on the auto industry. with g.d. plans to benefit from german technological know how it says it overriding is to get to become companies to join forces in an effort to stand up to the coming on sloat from silicon valley. all right for more let's bring in our markets man daniel cole put in frank for a day you know what are people in frankfurt making of diners new anchor investors. yeah they're not really sure what to think about all of this on the one hand they're liking the promises that they want to be a longtime partner also that they really want to be to build a new alliance when it comes to autonomy is driving and also regarding to eve mobility if but yeah we heard that shares in hong kong of gili were jumping high

completely different scenario here at the frankfurt stock exchange shares of dialer actually among the biggest losers here this morning at the good chip index that's investors are not true sure if those promises can be really fulfilled they are also questioning if the chinese investors now want to have an own seat in the supervisory board and we can also not forget that we're expecting of the verdict regarding a possible diesel ban in a german city so that's also what's making investors through the day already very nervous so quite a few question marks remain there now mr lee actually travel to germany what is his agenda while being here. well the man from china who is considered by many investors as the new mr ford from china he really needs to get a truss on the one hand from the employee keys at the headquarters of that's why he is there we're also hearing that he will be meeting with top officials from the german government as well because guess investors from china there is always this

question how reliable they are dots of bank in the in the past had problems for example with him and also their biggest shareholder from china so yeah their whole work mostly is to gain trust here in germany when you called in frankfurt thank you . well with venezuela's ball of our trading one hundred thousand to one dollar on the black market some venezuelans have become creative about ways to make money out of them anyway one trader took piles of value over the border to colombia where he craps them into fashion accessories each item brings up to fifteen dollars huge markup from the face value of the items and then there is the graphic designer first of all who has sold thousands of his illustrated all of us to customers at home and around the world. and the specter i'm reading now and what could

be the final steps to put together a government well we have to wait and see christa if you're talking of course about german politics and german chancellor angela merkel c.d.o. party convention is underway how conservatives will vote on the coalition agreement with the center left social democrats both parties will need to approve the deal before a new government can be formed now at the c.d.u. meeting more than a thousand delegates are expected to support the deed and at the convention american had named hope picks for a potential new cabinet calling it a new start for the c.d.u. about half the positions. slated to be held by women at the hands on a new champion of the party's right will also be part of cabinet that he is considered a sharp critic of america's refugee policy. joining me now from the city you can mention is the obvious political correspondent michelle or couth now welcome michelle i know it's a delegates vote for at the convention to vote for this new coalition deal are we

one step closer to getting a new government in germany. yes and we will be one step closer but it's the one step that we were expecting to go through quite easily anyway the big question is what will come out of the grassroots vote of angst party members not just delegates . behind in the c.d.u. but the grassroots of the social democrats they have time until this coming weekend to return their ballots by post and really on sunday we'll learn what the social democrats to agree and then we could finally say that germany was in the government but we're still not quite there yet yes and there is going to be voting for the results of the boat on the fourth of march wilmette kid has also given an indication of people she like to have been a cabinet as much talk about one of our suggestions and that's young again spontaneous about him is his choice a tactical maneuver or an ideological shift to the right. well you

say she would like to have i would question whether she really would like to have inspiring or covered up oh quite clearly this is a nod to the growing criticism that came out of the conservative camp where she stood accused for many months now of having shifted the party too far to the center too far into the political territory of the social democrats something they decry it as well so spawn was a person who needed to be considered tayo i think she recognized the political reality there and really the feedback that i've been getting here so far is that this goes a long way to solidifying what became her increasingly crumbling power base within her own party so that will at least calm down this question critics within the party for now right to look at the c.d.u. party convention here in berlin thank you very much. let's turn now to nigeria more than one hundred girls are still missing a week after an attack on a school in the northeast of the country book insurgents are suspected of targeting

the teenagers in the town of doxy the country's president muhammadu buhari has described the disappearance as a national disaster did of the chorus for an interest rather to adopt he spoke to one family desperate for news of their daughter. they came to come for their loved ones but the relatives of the family are themselves in concept. god help us christ one distraught. turned inside the family home. shows as a picture of his missing daughter ayesha she's just seventeen years old. her sister was the last person to see her. them one day we were

both sitting outside the school's mosque and. then we suddenly saw around fighters and heard shots. my sister said we should grab our things and run we held onto each other's hands but at some stage i lost sight of her while we were running. the school is now deserted a few belongings lie scatters on the ground. this is the school where the siblings i should have sat where divided when they tried to run away during the attack since then the school is deserted classes are suspend its and nobody knows where i currently is. the parents have compiled a list of the names of the missing schoolgirls eyewitnesses have told. that boko

haram drove the girls out of town on a truck. totally disappointed by the action of the government. i mean the same for the security suits and the in the town. three weeks ago. so does. get them so at that moment where. they. come as a result of that the state's commissioner of education rejects any responsibility he says it's impossible to place soldiers on guard at all schools under his watch but he's concerned that parents in the region might stop sending the children to school. for one week. i don't think it would open that school after the one we would have given because the pattern is developing code to fit they may not be

willing. to go back to the school after one week that is already. so the terrorists could achieve their targets. that. was younger daughter that doesn't want to go back. she says she's too afraid will her father continue to send his children to school. and get into that. about sending. prayers and face help the family to not lose hope that their daughter will soon return continue her education and fulfill her dream of becoming a doctor. we have now. place.
