address monogrammed has all but don't form a banner of mexico city has promised to stamp out corruption and take a look at reactions to his historic win. on some time at the world cup in russia brazil reached twenty years ago to find some sin costs dominate the school the first goal of the game centuries purchaser against max. i feel gail welcome to the program rescue workers in thailand to found the twelve boys and their football coach missing inside a flooded cave system for nine days old first team are reported to be safe but the rescue operation is not over yet the group went missing in the cave complex in chiang rai province last saturday after heavy flooding left them trapped inside navy divers have been trying to reach them have
8:02 pm
a sense but the efforts of been hampered by rising waters and mud john rice government described how much time navy seals managed to reach them. that according. to the latest report from the navy seals unit as they went in and managed to reach the elevated ledge called beach. and i thought that was a cool hope and here but apparently that is flooded that day when they went about three hundred to four hundred meters deep going to another elevated spot to see. if we don't know they found that out again brothers a safe i was. the writer sent from a d w correspondent florian a no show and they tie capital bangkok oh welcome florence so we just heard there then the boys found but not yet rescued.
8:03 pm
yes exactly and even though there is a great degree of enthusiasm and relieved here in bangkok i would say that the most difficult part might still lie ahead because this is one of the biggest caves in thailand it's about ten kilometers long and so the boys have been found in a place that is several kilometers into the cave and there is still a high level of water inside the cave and so now the rescue helpers need to decide how they will actually extricate them so there is still a lot of work ahead the first measures that are taken now is that they want to get . medical staff doctors into the cave to assess the condition of the boys to bring them food so that they can gain strength before they start any kind of
8:04 pm
extract extrication because they said this might actually still take a few days and have we heard we have the government talking about the contact between the boers and the potential rescuers have we heard how they came to be found yet how they had to get to the. well i mean apparently some navy rescue divers have been there they're even pictures of the boys now circulating on social media to me these boys provided that these pictures are actually correct but i assume so the boys look actually quite ok they're certainly not in great shape they haven't had food in nine days now which for a young teenager is really the limit pretty much so everyone here is very relieved because time was running out really and so now they have to make sure that the boys aren't in. yet come to gain their strength to actually. walk be
8:05 pm
able to walk themselves and then they need to decide whether they can actually extricate them through. basically the way they came before it was flooded so they would have to actually get them out through the water and some experts said that it's actually very very difficult to expiate someone through water that is not in a season diver so there might actually try different methods. there have been rescue help us that were drilling shafts from the top of the mountain into the cave i cannot tell you exactly how far these efforts have come so far but so now we have to wait and see but this rescue operation is actually still ongoing the boy's families have been waiting outside the cave for the last nine days so fantastic news for the. definitely and
8:06 pm
so i am hearing from colleagues who are actually at the cave that those parents never lost hope that they were performing rituals they were they were buddhist monks that were performing some traditional rituals some praying. the parents would not budge they would not move away from the cave even though it was raining they were basically camping in the mud just to be safe to their boys they were praying and so apparently those prayers were heard. laura bush in bangkok thank you . germany's government is in crisis as a feud over migration policy threatens angle america's ruling coalition the conservative leadership is now in talks aimed at reaching a compromise interior minister jose hoffa spock the crisis by pushing for chance of a metal to adopt a harder german line on migration on sunday he repeated his threat to quit or insistence on an aid use solution they hope his resignation could lead to the break
8:07 pm
up of a decades long conservative alliance but actually costing merkel's government its parliamentary majority. costs you will fare seems quite relaxed as she enters the city use headquarters in berlin. just. lets hope it's still light when i return. to her first rebellious bavarian c.s.u. and its sister party a chance to angle a more closed city you are looking for ways to resolve the fight over migration to germany i. have met that we will have a meeting now and we will see if we all want to say it is about direct magic solution feasible solution off the mark her questions. today she needs diary room answer gather your so we have national concerns but a joint european interest. and i think we are closer together than apart and now
8:08 pm
we have to find ways. i'm always optimistic about. the dispute is about the details of germany's migration policy variants he wants to turn away migrants who have already registered in another state or have already applied for asylum the chancellor has always made it clear that this wouldn't be part of germany's migration policy sam think she reiterated once again to our own conservatives earlier today but this c. is too bust and chairman interior minister haasil for isn't that bad facts down quietly after a long meeting office party gela gets sick of a threat in the early hours of monday morning to step down both from his post as interior minister as well as c.s.u. party leader. later he told the chairman newspaper that quote he won't let a chance or who's only a chance or because of him fire him the social democrats are s.p.d. the third party in germany's governing coalition has been watching it in disbelief
8:09 pm
from decides. they've been but right now i'm ready to continue with this government . but there must be some action from the c.d.u. c.s.u. and my patience is wearing thin as i'm doing the. party's position equally as stands by the escalation of the threat from inside that the government will be able to work normally again they might be able to save themselves from the situation is a hole for will probably for zine and i suspect he won't get away with this chromed because of course grand coalition is coming to an end after only one hundred days to c.s.u. has accused the chancellor of mistrust parents the discussion between coalition leaders in britain today will finally cool the heated disputes between the union parties. might be it might not be w.'s chief political correspondent linda crane is outside the building headquarters of angela merkel's c.d.u. welcome belinda chancellor an interior minister now in the second set of face to
8:10 pm
face meetings today and the news. second set of meetings today. a set of meetings over the past couple of weeks and no no news yet they have been in there now for a good two hours twenty minutes or so and they will be looking hard to find a compromise we heard leaders on both of both conservative parties saying that they absolutely want to maintain what is often referred to as their sisterhood these two parties have been working together in a conservative bloc for almost seventy years now but we've also heard both sides saying they're not ready to stand down on the principles in fact mr c. hall for the interior minister said today that any compromise would force him to bend on his principles and he can't do that so it's hard to imagine what
8:11 pm
a face saving compromise could look like at this point linda stay with us if you will we've been out on the streets of berlin asking germans what they think of all this political brinkmanship. it doesn't impress me they are so contradictory the whole time unfortunately it's not about us it's all about the politicians and that's a pity and that's it since i think it would be too bad if this were the reasons evil for resigned just to get out of the situation not because of mr c. who for but because of the whole thing i wouldn't like it if this were the reason he named for having to resign that's pretty much. the only these politicians are puffing themselves up spreading panic amongst the people it's a lot of hot air and no results they keep finding excuses and telling the other politicians what they should do better but they never actually get anything done. or back to melinda crane melinda it's not just us more sample who are frowning on
8:12 pm
the horse they office antics. that's right there's absolute exasperate and there was a larger poll published this morning that showed that sixty seven percent of those who were asked said that they absolutely consider mistress a ho for the interior minister's actions to be completely irresponsible and sixty nine percent said that they agree with the chancellor that any new approach titer approach to migration in europe should be made on a multilateral europe wide basis and not germany going it alone beyond that if you look at what business leaders are saying they're saying we have such important issues on the table the possibility of trade war with the united states we need a strong government not one that's ripping itself apart so there's widespread been muse ment and also a real dismay about what's going on here. but one wonders what's going on inside jose has had for the last couple weeks he's been talking about
8:13 pm
a deadline which was yesterday give me what i want a by sunday otherwise i'm going and then yesterday he said i'm still going to go but not just yet so what does he really want. that's right turn this into essentially a personal vendetta with the chancellor he wants to see her bend he's saying that he absolutely can't compromise that central principle for him that germany must go it alone turning back migrants from the border just a reminder phil there is no crisis at the border we do not have hordes of people trying to get into the country in fact the migration numbers are as low as they've been at any time since twenty fifteen only about eighty three percent sorry only about seventy percent of the numbers that were seventeen percent of the numbers that were trying to come in then so absolutely no clear factual justification for
8:14 pm
this but mr say hope first clearly sees its own fate now is. an extra could leave late to the fate of the party itself and that's the central question will he take his party out of the government if he himself steps doubt stay with us melinda craig as we look at the options of facing an ideal about bill if for say harper does take his bus and go home. flips medical's variances the party decided to pull out of the coalition. it would leave the chancellor without a majority in parliament here's what could happen next. medical c.d.u. and her coalition partner the social democrats and it could go it alone and continue to govern without a majority but i'm sure in the lengthy negotiations to form the current government medical already made it clear that this is not a route she would be keen to take. to
8:15 pm
avoid a minority government the c.d.u. and the social democrats could look for a new coalition partner this could really only be the environmentalists greens. of the business friendly free democrats it's unlikely that machall would be able to remain chancellor in this scenario. if the bavarian conservatives were out of the coalition that would technically be a majority in parliament against machall if all the parties in the bundestag got together they could table a vote of no confidence against her. this is unlikely however given the huge divides between them. finally new elections could be called again this is not a scenario many would relish the last general elections were held less than a year ago and it took months to form
8:16 pm
a new government so it's hard to see how fresh polls would bring more stability. as a final question to you melinda crying this all this german government instability is this a purely domestic muscle or does it have wider ramifications. you know it's absolutely not a purely domestic matter the last thing that the european union needs right now is for its most powerful country for the european union strongest economy to be in this state of instability unreliability to have its credibility undermined the drama playing out here in germany in many ways reflects the same kind of battle between populist nationalism and internationalism that we've seen played out in britain over breaks it that we're seeing played out in the u.s. over trumpet some and this is very very problematic at
8:17 pm
a time when the european union needs clear strong leadership when the international liberal international order established after the second world war is looking shakier than ever before to see this playing out here in this way is indeed very dismaying it was like the something in the water chief political correspondent linda cry thank you. let's get the economic perspective on this not with us very much bill well really i was just talking to us about the dimension of how much this could affect not only germany but the european union and that of course also is trouble for business a political dispute like this with when what should be a stable function coalition is always a problem but this particular conflict comes at a really bad time on top of that as a condom is to cabral felder meyer told us earlier so someone who things where you hear about needs chairman leadership there's so many krises out there would be
8:18 pm
no drums trade war against europe reads the urgent reform of the eurozone and that means if germany affords itself another here of paralyzes or of stays is that would really be costly it would involve an enormous amount of uncertainty not just for germany itself but for the entire european union and we know situation to be able to afford that asian markets close sharply down on monday as investors are dealing with a looming trade war u.s. tariffs on chinese imports are set to take effect on this friday if china retaliates and the spiral goes on growth will almost certainly slow down. china has cut import tariffs on some fifteen hundred consumer goods including automobiles from the beginning of july aiming to further open the economy and meet growing demand this announcement comes just days before u.s.
8:19 pm
tariffs on up to fifty billion dollars of chinese products due to take effect china says if the usa goes through with that it will retaliate with import duties on thirty four billion dollars worth of american goods. and as the dispute between washington and beijing escalates american products face another threat trump's trade war is pushing chinese consumers away from previously desirable u.s. brands and towards local chinese brands. now. if there's trade conflict between china and the u.s. and it affects the national interests certainly we will boycott some foreign brands and ask friends and family to safeguard our nation's interests. u.s. president donald trump is also looking to put in place measures to protect u.s. innovation and intellectual property but last week he backed down from imposing measures that would have restricted chinese investment in u.s.
8:20 pm
companies in order to protect u.s. technology trump told fox news on sunday he did not want to focus specifically on china the european union is possibly as bad as china just smaller ok it's terrible what they did to us here a peon union take a look at the car situation they send a mercedes in we can send our cars and look what they do to our farmers they don't want our farm products you know in all fairness they have their farmers so they want to protect their farmers but we don't protect ours and they protect theirs trump has rejected criticism of his tariffs but his trade dispute is already costing u.s. jobs and american manufacturers including harley davidson motorcycles are exploring options to go off shore. and even more evidence of growing anxiety around the world over punitive trade measures this time out of brussels e.u. officials have renewed their vows to fight back against u.s. president donald trump's threat to impose a twenty percent tariff on car imports in
8:21 pm
a letter sent to washington the european commission also said the move could cost the united states up to fourteen billion dollars in gross domestic product the u.s. currently imposes a two point five percent tariff on passenger car imports from the e.u. automakers in both europe and the united states have warned that higher levies could harm business and start forget this all started with steel tariffs a potential new metals giant is now trying to avoid a crisis in the steel sector germany's tizen corp and india's tata are merging their european steelmaking operations after two years of talks that's of course a factor trust authorities approve of the deal which will lead to job cuts. the joint venture comes in response to the problem of overcapacity on the global steel market as the new firm which will be known as. steel will become europe's second largest steel making or. if this is really the issue to move successfully for. global existed as if he had also cost tremendous
8:22 pm
additional imports into europe imports into europe all time high level which if additionally increased the price pressure on that material. to tie up is expected to result in about four thousand job cuts and savings of hundreds of millions of euros each year the marriage firm will employ some forty eight thousand workers and countries including germany the netherlands and the u.k. and it's expected to generation annual revenue of around fifteen billion euros. that's all for business now expect to feel for more political leaders have a thank you. iran's president hassan rouhani has arrived in switzerland for talks on the future of the nuclear deal between iran and the international community the us pulled out of the agreement in may the other signatories france great britain
8:23 pm
china russia and germany hope to save it fearing a loss of economic ties with iran as well as a potential nuclear arms race in the middle east president rouhani is due to travel to vienna on wednesday where the agreement was signed in twenty fifty five. f. this presidential candidates address manuel lopez obrador has won sunday's election official projections put in one shot to win more than fifty three percent of the vote. people reject two major parties that have governed mexico for nearly one hundred years the president elect made fighting corruption essential campaign promise is with us and promising to help the country's poor the former mayor of mexico city has been rather up in two previous presidential elections and is also a professional critic of u.s. president donald trump despite this he used his victory speech to extend an olive branch. this tells us. we will pursue a relationship or friendship and cooperation with the united states. always
8:24 pm
rooted in mutual respect and in the defense of our fellow mexicans who live and work on ripley in that country. and those mineral lopez obrador has also promised through and the drug related violence that's killed more than two hundred thousand people in mexico since two thousand and six the election of his veteran leftist represents a major shift in the country's political leadership they don't do social media jared reed is here with more now on how mexicans are reacting to news of his victory welcome jarrad so let's start with the political establishment how has how they reacted well this is probably something they should have been expecting because polls had been predicting an outcome like this but it's still nonetheless a massive deal because the preprocessor the institutional revolutionary party has governed makes you go almost continuously since nine hundred twenty nine so these massive force in modern mexico has been defeated not by another conservative party
8:25 pm
but by a left ati and that's because of three issues corruption file and poverty which our correspondent in mexico says are what makes you can say are the biggest issues that affect them issues that are only getting worse they say the outgoing president and a.k.p. and yet has congratulated lopez obrador with a tweet he wrote congratulations i wish you the success for the benefit of mexico the government will support you and your team to make an orderly transition the soundness of our institutions and our democracy has been demonstrated and it has because there were eighty nine million eligible voters and two thirds of voters turned out to version ok so not only has the countries of swung to the left but he has managed to get the win the so win with a majority for the first time since the end of what one party rule. so how have supporters been celebrated or they're delighted because the left has been trying to win the presidency for like three decades he has read this is he's third time
8:26 pm
running for the presidency he's been celebrating time lucky out with his supporters in mexico city we can see just pure here. the ground by the makes you can. believe now what about makes you can vote them still. and we have a tweet here from a young architect estefania henkel she summed up the mood as a young citizen that suffered the terrible consequences of corruption i can only say that hard work and collaboration can bring about change change that people say is long overdue but there are a lot of questions around lopez obrador because he's promised to clean up the violence from the casillas and the corruption but he hasn't really. yet properly how he's going to do that and he's also promised a range of social reforms that he says expensive ones that he says he'll be able to fund through the billions he'll save mexico by fighting corruption so these are
8:27 pm
really really big claims that he's making and we have to wait to see how he goes about doing it and. the election of his leftist books a recent shift toward a right wing leaders in latin america so how the region's leaders taking this news briefly well because we have a leftist populist now in charge of latin america's second largest economy so that's a pretty big deal they've come out to congratulate him. because he's winning was so decisive his opponents all conceded in record time there's a lot of implications for his win on nafta the free trade agreement that donald trump says he wants to scrap one that's really important to make so aside from dealing with the corruption the violence in the pub or the back carm he'll have to negotiate with an unpredictable northern neighbor over things like trade and the deportations. thank you for that. this is day w. news live from baghdad still to come is a crackdown on indonesia's. commuters if you will in

to resign of the issue a move that could cost the coalition its part of entering the jurors. in afghanistan at least nineteen people have been killed in a suicide bombing in the eastern city of jalalabad the bomber struck a vehicle carrying members of the minority sikh community and shopping to meet president ashraf ghani who had opened a hospital in the city just hours earlier islamic state militant group claimed the attack the blast is the latest incident in renewed violence since june when a government ceasefire the peace march by ordinary afghans offered sub hope of a return to normality. they marched for almost seven hundred kilometers across afghanistan during the month of ramadan no less these eighty men made their way across the country south to reach the capital kabul many of them bearing the scars of war. they've had enough and wanted to set an example and that's why they struck out they passed through taliban areas and contested zones before finally reaching
8:32 pm
kabul after four weeks and how much. from the first moment when we left helmand people were really friendly to us both from the taliban and the afghan army or less even if they were women or people who were injured in war just everybody northeast . for a moment in mid june the unthinkable seemed possible first the afghan government proclaimed a unilateral ceasefire to honor the end of the month of muslim fasting the taliban match their troops it came to touching scenes taliban fighters and afghan government soldiers who otherwise fought bitterly shook hands the president seized the opportunity to call on the taliban to work towards lasting peace. what is possible john has surprised the world want peace. we should solve our problems together. when i say together i mean what government the taliban
8:33 pm
and the people must say we should stop fighting for religion and political differences because there is no justification for that exact. me but while some celebrated others continued to bomb the terrorist militia the so-called islamic state stepped up its suicide attacks in june there were dozens of victims like here in jalalabad the hopes of the war torn country lasted a mere three short days after either marking the end of the month of fasting the taliban resumed fighting the people of afghanistan are war weary but even the peace marchers of helmand doubt that their action will bring about lasting change. because the taliban have already warned people about taking part in the parliamentary elections in the autumn anyone who chooses to vote will have their fingers cut off after. threat like this and considering the security situation at the moment i don't think many people will vote. an adult. the exhausted
8:34 pm
activists are left with nothing but a mentor of their dream for a peaceful homeland as of a few days ago the afghan army made plans to resume battling the taliban and once more the notion of peace in afghanistan seems unreachable. the government of indonesia is being accused of undermining the fight against hiv through its crackdown on the algae bt community human rights watch report claims that since twenty sixteen there has been a shop rise in rhetoric from officials and politicians against members of the last gay bisexual and transgender communities last year alone police that detained at least three hundred people because of their presume sexual orientation activists say that's a fear within the l g b t community is affecting already rising writes about hiv infection in two thousand and seven the hiv rates amongst gay men was five percent
8:35 pm
in two thousand and fifteen not figure shot up to twenty five percent homosexuality is not illegal in muslim majority and in the z. but that hasn't stopped police from rushing up the pressure on the l g b t community is detained and publicly shamed these men are paying the price for allegedly being gay. crackdowns on gatherings like this by police have become common supported by and. human rights watch says this is fuelling and hiv epidemic these clubs or so on others or even some of the private parties were places where a charity outreach workers would conduct education about the virus would convince people to undergo voluntary tests and teach people about prevention. police sometimes monitors social media accounts to discover event locations many have been shut down the closing down of such places frequented by the community has made it
8:36 pm
even more difficult for health workers to reach them it's also affecting their work . lower enforcement raids anyone they think is involved in homosexual conduct so that scares me i feel afraid in my current line of work. and. nongovernmental organizations play a crucial role in reaching a vulnerable groups in indonesia but the climate of fear and panic is only making it harder for one of the country's most marginalized communities. or businesses with having. now on the economic future of mexico following the election that's right phil just gave us all the details about that mexican election they're calling mexico's first electoral landslide and it's one which will give the new president elect and there's nowhere lopez over unprecedented power to make sweeping economic changes but like his u.s. counterpart donald trump and there's been
8:37 pm
a look at sort of those political agenda can change wildly from one speech to another so we're taking a look at what could be ahead for mexico's economy. the economy was at the core of an dressed man well lopez obrador as campaign his strategy from mexico follows three main strands. mexico is one of the largest producers of oil in the world the black stuff accounts for about a third of government income obrador has long criticized the opening up of oil production to private investors but he's pledged to continue to sell off if there's no corruption present in the deals he also says he'll freeze energy and petrol prices. the president elect also pledged to tackle corruption he says he'll stand up for the average hard working mexican who's being robbed by corruption will hand out more benefits while keeping taxes where they are he says
8:38 pm
a fighting graft will help pay for these handouts anticorruption drives could help out a coyote uncertainty for international investors. keeping trade relations with the united states stable is crucial to the mexican economy the u.s. board well over three hundred billion dollars of mexican goods and services last year but an ongoing spat over the north american free trade agreement has put that relationship at risk another challenge for the president elect so far donald trump has been welcoming but whether the two plain speaking leaders can maintain a positive relationship remains to be seen. despite his left wing populist rhetoric obrador has been keen throughout the election campaign to show that mexico will remain open for business. australia introduced a plastic bag and four states during the week it well nature should be happy some customers aren't especially when speaking about shopping that's angry and even violent scenes unfolded as customers refused to pay for their backs but luckily not
8:39 pm
everyone is suffering from so-called back which. for years us trains have taken them for granted now shoppers in sydney and elsewhere are facing a choice pay for a plastic bag or get your hands on an environmentally friendly cloth carrier for some it's been a pain free switch. so i've been using them for a while and i'm quite happy to see you see others are less enthusiastic. it seems like this the ban on plastic carrier is intended to address cleanup workers recently collected eight hundred kilograms of plastic waste in a single day of this speech on the astray in territory of christmas island in the weeks leading up to the ban coming into effect environmentalist expressed hope that the policy would increase awareness among consumers. so i think that people need to
8:40 pm
really understand that and i didn't. call so much time in the environment and when they see an image of an animal that's ingested to bray or plastic so being caught in it it really connects to a single use items that they might use every day with those reaching impacts and in our marine environment with reports of furious astray and customers dominating the headlines self-serving tills like these might prove a relief to stop and given an appropriate amount of time the visa bill may even win over the hearts and minds of shoppers too. so out of the action packed today at the world cup in russia with favorites brazil comes to be beating of mexico the line is here to take a storage welcome nicholas a routine win for presume it's a new school i would suggest so they were very effective they're very good going forward and they're very good at shutting down any mexican attackers came their way on multiple occasions but anything i say will not do this justice which is why it's best to look at the pictures first. and we'll do that let's look at the splits look
8:41 pm
at these pictures. this was a made started and finished by neymar really on picking the slack off in between there's no cross needing brazil star man with a simple finish you know if the half time i say a daring to dream it was no more than brazil deserved after a sustained spread of pressure. i don't know if the ball incident with mexico and then saw neymar rolling around in apparent agony present injury worries were unfounded as the p.s.g. man dusted himself off to set up substitute your batting for me for brazil was. neymar and brazil are cranking into gear at just the right time. to make scary more last sixteen heartbreak this is the seventh straight time their world cup is ended in tears at the stage. of tears for mexico but cheers for brazil who appeared to be a step closer to
8:42 pm
a record sixth title and did they would be foolish to rule them out of actually win this tournament they do have the harder routes to the final the next game is either against belgium or japan no playing at the moment and in the course of in the semifinal to be up against the france for europe why so no easy the path to the final is there but if you really want to win this tournament you need to beat the best and this is brazil's chance to show they are the best and that they can beat their rivals but what about mexico they start in germany with their opening game and then sell to the still so they going home mean that an absolutely cracking start to the tournament in that germany game blistering pace compact at the back they really had a plan they knew what they were doing but always a bit passé the last two games that they lost against sweden they of course lost today against brazil and i think. sums it up. the class was us today we didn't do too well for mexico i'd say on the pitch we lacked persuasion especially in those moments where we could have hurt brazil. we were far too hectic
8:43 pm
in those moments just. so yesterday's result means that russia hosts face croatia in the quarter final so how did they look in their game against them that they would lose they were missing but of the dazzle they've had in the first against a tournament because you go back and think they want to know against nigeria three nil against argentina to the surprise of many yesterday they didn't quite have the same fluidity that they had in those previous games let's have those pictures. denmark got off to the perfect start as mathias your vincent hoped to side dish the second was but croatia struck back just moments later and zuki chiron his side left in a was like penalty mr luker moderates set its sights on a penalty shoot out event record sealed victory for her like she was setting up the quarter final showdown with russia. indeed in is the first time since one thousand nine hundred six that two games been decided in
8:44 pm
a penalty to shoot out i can see croatia actually going all the way they've finally clicked their stars look a moderate even rocketed you catch they all play very well for their club teams but they're playing for croatia you can tell they're not playing for themselves it was a tough pill to swallow the hospice michael the denmark goalkeeper he saved three of the six penalties he faced yesterday one in extra time to take the game to the penalty shootout twice in the shootout so he actually there with a man of match performance but question just that a bit better and they advance the quarterfinals against russia so how are they going to go against russia given the huge support of the home fans behind behind russia well the home fans we see behind us very very happy of course i wouldn't understand their estimate russia any longer the storm because i have up until now my gut feeling says croatia would win the match but with these fans behind them and i think that russia really can get all the way to maybe the semifinals the same way that germany didn't two thousand and six when they host the tournament a team which didn't happen sickly high expectations riding on this wave of euphoria
8:45 pm
and getting to the last four and actually finishing third in the tournament so logic says a sure win in advance but with the with this fans backing russia can do absolutely anything or make much of a club thank you for. if you're ever in kenya the one place most people will tell who's of. national pockets the world's largest concentration of black rhinos and other species unique to the continent and environmentalist say it's biodiversity is now under threat from a new realm. welcome to nairobi national park the only national park in the world the directly borders the city. if you're lucky you'll spot will to be giraffes and even the every loose of pride of lions. but looking at the land from the air you notice a different kind of creature the standard gauge railway authorities say out of seven possible routes this was the best option what he established was that all
8:46 pm
those other possible route one were going to have a lot more impact on the park because we're going to acquire more land from the national park in excess of one hundred fifty. but what the option that we took was an option of building a bridge across the national building a bridge one hundred meter to pass. a bridge or five point eight kilometers the amount of land. on the national park is zero point one zero point five one of a nickel that is half an acre of land. but environmentalist accuse the kenyan government of not following due process before construction began. well it's really a sequence of very unfortunate events starting off really very poorly planned it needs to keep the. plans for the fire started featuring will continue i think the current at the moment we can. really use being done through the nairobi bashing in
8:47 pm
contravention of who is stopping it. and the reasons why campaign such as ourselves and other concerned the decisions went to court to stop it was because we feel the rights of the climbing was not considered. executed when thinking about discouraging. to very many roles in game particular environment while the train will offer passengers a view of the life time while passing through the national park conservationists are concerned that this construction will affect the ecosystem and the wildlife that live here slocum should he would be and also because we've seen that in the last in the fall because you know with the foundation for the pillars for the railway it's extra so yes. temporary barriers the plastic ways to meet the fall out in fact and the like. but again none of that has been studied he just enough it has been created so we need to get some measures. the project has been
8:48 pm
a controversial topic in kenya even before construction four years ago the first phase which runs from kenya's coastal city of mumbai to nairobi has already been completed. the second phase is what you see here. at nearly five million euros a kilometer construction has cost the country two point eight billion euros in loans from the chinese government report suggests that more than eight million euros has been lost in dubious land compensation deals. and with the railway running through a national heritage site many kenyans are concerned the country isn't getting value for money. the government says it will rehabilitate the land once construction is finished before wildlife populations it may already be too late.

for more than a week now the un's cultural organization unesco has been meeting in bahrain to decide which landmark sites around the world should be awarded the status of unesco world heritage sites or governmental from coast desk is fit to run a search the list what has made it welcome what has made it on the list as you well as great mixture as always and we'll look now at a couple of international highlights first of all first we go to the korean mountains and then a glorious looking temple actually or in fact that's one of the temples as for buddhist monasteries in the mountains that are in the region which are being given world heritage state as they do magnificent i have to say then there's the medina in cordoba in spain the ruins of a huge moorish city that was rigi built back in the tenth century by the caliph of cordoba to show how powerful he was and indeed he named it as
8:50 pm
a haro it was the name of his favorite concubine so she had a whole city named after. if you can get it now what about tea in germany two sides nominated yeah and they both of them succeeded in getting on would heritage site status there's a thirteenth century cathedral like see which we can look at a moment but first a viking sites that was originally discovered at the end of the nineteenth century ride up in the north of germany it's on the border with denmark it's called. or he do boo in danish i hope i'm pronouncing that right for any danish views things are still actually one hundred years old being discovered on this site because it's a huge sigh and but meanwhile they've sort of made they recreated a viking settlement and and a museum let's have a look at that. vikings life was not one for softies they hunted for food with bows and arrows. made their own clothes to
8:51 pm
keep them warm in winter. and built wooden ships with the simplest of tools. it was a life within and in harmony with nature they had an incredibly sharp power of observation they were well acquainted with all the materials around them and knew how to use them to their advantage to build houses ships wagons and make rope. they made a great many things that we could hardly even imagine and today. in northern germany seven touched roof wooden houses have been faithfully reconstructed the settlement was built at the end of the shoreline an inlet on the baltic sea it was a strategic location for trading precious metals weapons and power.
8:52 pm
behind me a nice kind of boo a viking age settlement at first glance it doesn't look like much because it's just green fields but in archaeology of course the real treasures are underground and here this heartier square centimeter that doesn't contain archaeological findings and we say is archaeologically contaminated. in the nearby viking museum visitors can inspect many of those original artefacts the vikings often get a bad rap as fierce warriors and marauders the museum also shows the softer side the vikings highly developed bronze and silversmiths craft for example and jewelry . the dawn of a nearby consists of earthworks walls and trenches do. some thirty kilometers of the original fortifications date back one thousand years and also included in this
8:53 pm
new unesco world heritage site. what does it mean to be a world heritage site what it basically means protection i mean the un has one hundred ninety three countries in the world that are members of the un that's practically the whole world and that the heritage site gives it gives legal protection under international treaties set up by the un so it means that you can't build a motorway. you know through the middle of the vikings pillage or whatever. they they have to be preserved and also i think it gives them a lot of media attention we're talking about it now and so lots more people will go and visit these places which is you know good for these places because it's more to risk going to see them and like you and the other german site that has not received that status this is that now book a fable known book is just west of leipzig kind of in the middle of germany in small town it's dominated by this cathedral we see with these four towers or two
8:54 pm
spires two towers perhaps it is and it's a mixture of romanesque and gothic alkyd changer it's really quite unique it's built in the thirteenth century and it's also famous for these stone figures that were sculpted by an anonymous stonemason who simply known as the noun book monster and they've never actually found out who it was but it was an incredible cross without a doubt and that person is on my bucket list to go and visit because i'm a bit of a i'm a bit of a cathedral fat let it be done i've seen a fair few not do like visiting cathedral so that's a nice one to get it was a quite a surprise that that got through actually to be named a world heritage site ok well as far as the excellence and presumably there is more about vai's and the rest of the website yeah there is this lot small pictures of all the sites that have become world heritage sites that date every dot com slash
