i am. busy is good job good news coming to you live from berlin and mission accomplished there free and incredible high risk groups q. ends in success in thailand for twelve boys and that soccer coach are brought out alive and well from a flooded kids to stim we go live to our correspondent for the very latest. also coming up to reveal the chinese nobel peace prize winning leaves china to start a new life in europe. is due to arrive in berlin this evening after years of house arrest the german government has been pushing for her release since the husband

died in prison a year ago. and bridget make a play for history at the world cup in tonight's bronze semifinal been funky with a neighbor from hans for a place in the climate of the day for us to. clone a warm welcome to you i'm. after being trapped in a cave in northern thailand for more than two weeks or twelve boys and their coach have now been rescued that is according to the thai navy and the operation it took evacuate the team took three days earlier this morning divers started the final phase of the rescue operation for divers will be the next to come out the boys who'd been rescued are getting medical care and are said to be in good condition.

we don't do enough correspondent florian news he is near the cave complex in northern ireland and be monitoring the situation from dead spots a couple of weeks feel really happy and after a long ordeal fill us in on the latest from. that. indeed it sounds like a mission impossible was just made possible. just within the last few minutes. it was there was this information confirmed on the facebook page of the thai navy seals that all thirteen are out and this is on the one hand what everyone was hoping for but quite honestly i had my doubts that this would actually happen just a week ago when we were told boys that were not even able to swim would have to get through a flooded cave that is challenging even for experienced rescue divers so there were

so many things that could have gone wrong but now we know they didn't go wrong the must be a lot of gratitude and excitement about the success of this operation and this was an international effort wasn't it for real and not without risks one time navy seal died trying to save the boys tell us more about this operation the pressure that this team was on the to rescue these boys. yes i think it is very important especially in this moment where everyone is is elated to see that we mustn't forget that it cost the lives of one of the rescue divers and. so yes there was indeed a lot of pressure on those rescue divers they had come in from basically all around the world what we understand they're worth. we rescue divers from britain who made

the difference when they they were the ones that actually found the boys after nine days having been trapped in that cave and they played a critical role in mapping out how they could be extracted furthermore there were. there were about thirty u.s. rescue helpers from the pacific command based in okinawa they sent consultants and also divers there were experts from china were experienced with imaging they mapped out the caves there were people from nearby myanma and laos who knew the region who had been looking for alternative routes into the caves now that didn't turn out successful but nevertheless they were part of this rescue effort so it was people from all around the world basically that not only watched but took part in this rescue mission that now. came to successful ends.

jordan and i'm sure there's a huge. it's a great deal of kind of relief and elation and euphoria that the entire teenage football team and they could have been risky due to the efforts of this international team thank you very much for monitoring the situation for us and we of course talk to you when who comes if the two on the condition of the boys on the field that. moving along the video of the chinese nobel peace prize winner and szabo has left china to start a new life in europe she's expected to arrive in but in this evening you have been kept on did not total house arrest with no formal charges since two thousand and ten when her husband was awarded the nobel peace prize the husband schools for democracy had angered beijing. she's finally free to charge the widow of nobel peace prize laureate lucho bo. for years she

longed to leave china and live in exile. but she was confined to this suburban compound under house arrest cut off from the world as if she were a criminal. but lucero never actually broke the law her only crime was being married to a new job or the late civil rights activist china labeled him a criminal because he advocated democratic change in china. he was already in prison when he won the nobel peace prize in two thousand and ten he was never released this empty chair at the award ceremony in symbolize china's refusal to free him or even his wife. beijing viewed lucero as an accomplice and put her under house arrest for eight years she lived under constant observation to shave her head in protest he suffered from depression . the strain was evident when western journalists mohnish to visit her in two thousand and twelve. but didn't they say i never expected him to win the nobel

peace prize and i can't leave the house it's absolutely absurd. even kafka couldn't have written this with any more certainty his shift for temperature. only at the very end ever as bones life was she allowed to visit him in a hospital he was in the final stages of liver cancer she remained with him to the end than attended the states hastily organized let's see. from the beginning germany pushed for luke to be allowed to leave china but even after her husband's death beijing said she would be prosecuted under chinese law. well judy if we will not tolerate any international interference in this matter i need. as lawyer says the chinese government's actions were always unlawful.

what's truly exceptional about lucia's case is that she can't do anything about her situation. she hasn't committed a crime has been no judicial ruling handed down so it is simply illegal that they are restricting her movement. i mean egypt you should feel. after years of negotiations and many setbacks lucia widow has finally been released but it will likely take a long time before she can return to a normal life. correspondent is in taipei and following that story when he china had rejected on such intervention fit in so what led to release now and what go to jimmy's diplomatic campaign plane these developments. actually according to the dimensions of the shelves friends who has a close relationship with her they have this it's actually child claim to bully with the chairman and that's it in china and this time she's not coming by any of

the chinese or at least so it shows that this campaign is actually motivated by the chairman and the only interesting point is that about the timing some of the friends said actually the chinese authorities has told that the chinese government is allowing her to leave china and you know this month oh early august. to be early before it first of all houses that was just on friday that is another surprising points so the chinese government denying keeping her on their house arrest and claiming that they were shy of rhesus and that actually she has been she has been teaching at her home for almost a serious so this has never meant that today that they can see any relationship between the chinese premier league visits to germany and you shall believe and so i

think the media from all around the bow they are looking for more details of the show they kept until now as you said it could be first to the anniversary this friday tell us about what kooky and his wife played in china's dissident movement. if that's so it's not the political act at this a series of poets and artists just because she has married to fall and it's. a face and it's missing so. one of the famous political activists in china. ok is. freed on constitutional reform and lloyd in china and he's also one of his also the first chinese awarded the nobel prize in two thousand and ten so. very symbolic i think it's in china advocating for social reform so that's

why. it's having it. because. in typing thank you very much it's something to look at some other stories making news around the bond u.s. government congress nominated to judge grants carbonneau to for the vacancy on the supreme court if confirmed fifty two of those catholic was expected to be less receptive to abortion and gay rights than his predecessor the nomination sets a confirmation battle with democrats as trump seeks to shift the nation's highest court for the to they're lying. your the death toll has now risen to one hundred fifty six people in japan due to flooding and landslides caused by last week's torrential rains as waters begin to recede more than seventy thousand rescue workers have been deployed in search of victims and survivors in the western part of the city is one of japan's most by the related disasters in decades.

is conservative party fear she's giving up too much ground as a government legacy it's the u.k.'s departure from the european union. for jeremy hunt the latest disarray in the u.k. government means a promotion steps up from running the health service to one of the very top posts in charge of foreign affairs. principle job at a time of massive importance for our country is to stand for the five the system so that we should get through an agreement with your face towards it and that is better known pretty says supporters johnson will now have to watch backs it unfold from the sidelines he had first accepted the proposal for a soft bricks it agreed by the cabinet last week the prime minister to resign may's country retreat put on monday changed his mind saying the brics it dream is dead. first to go hours earlier was david davis the hardliners supposedly in charge of

bracks it he and other right wingers say the prime minister is making too many concessions to the european union i'm worried that what the european union will do if you take what we've offered and ask for more or wait for more and i think if you've got the time or get a bit tougher with them and this should be the time. so far the british prime minister has emerged surprisingly unscathed to preserve may's hurried cabinet reshuffle replaces hardliners with pragmatists but with less than nine months until britain leaves the bloc may still has to get a break sit plans through parliament let alone convince a u. skeptics in brussels. and these developments are being closely watched. seen a reaction from the president of the european council don he tweeted politicians come and go but the problems they created for people remain i can only regret that

the idea of breaks it is not left with davis and johnson but who knows. the first world cup semifinal kicks off this evening with france taking on belgium mark why does from debbie sports desk is here to talk about a very intriguing encounter welcome as the two countries on neighbors how big is the rivalry between them well no bigger than a world cup semifinal i mean this is the biggest game for two teams of a play i mean it's all could oversee for some of the belgian players who speak french as a first language some of them have played in france like eden hazard actually show you some footage of a ball on the french border and they're all a bit confused because the barmaid seems to be supporting france most of the clientele supporting belgian that's another whole town called key of us now tonight is going to get quite heated in there no doubt when the two are going to go together i suppose from the bigger football nation given that they have won the

world cup before in one thousand nine hundred eight belgium and never want to before obviously when france won it they were with him as captain now he's the coach. the teams are pretty well matched it for us i think france really want to recover from losing the final on home sold the european championship two years ago so they sort of a bit more big game experience but hugo lloris is pretty worried about this belgian side let's have a listen to the french captain and goalkeeper. i think the most complete team in possible aspects of the game at this tournament they know how to defend. tac how to counter attack strong and the strong in everything. they have everything they need to be a great team and they are a great team fantastic it's a fantastic generation and to beat them we will have to play a great match. so france is not being complacent and they're preparing for

a tough encounter what about belgium they'll be looking for french week this is what they seek to exploit i think they might look at the fullbacks of france and say that is maybe france's weak spot because. as haven't really got any great international experience they were quite surprised picks for this tournament they don't well so far but have they really been tested so far even though they played argentina and uruguay and you think the likes of dear boy one even has a bombing down the those wings for belgium can really cause problems to the french for bikes and also marion for laney as proof of belgium so far as to know how good he is in the yeah and they both quite small those four back so he might look to try and isolate one of them trying its head on the ball to score a goal so belgium have frets throughout their team can i say the list now to how confident they are ahead of this big encounter. belgium of just one game away from reaching the world cup final for the first time in their history. the red devils

have been one of the most exciting teams of the world cup sending their fans into a frenzy was after knocking out the favorites brazil supporters believe their neighbors archrivals france would be the next team they send home i was after this match i believe anything is possible so they're gonna win i feel like we're going to go play against everybody every other team so no problem we'll be them all belgium is a small country as you know. live and million people living there and we are proud of what we can achieve and we can do as a group. belgium have scored more goals than any other team in russia they have one of the best goalkeepers in. and their assistant coach french starting area on read knows how to win a world cup. really only euros win the world cup so for us it's very important.

a lot of players look up to him you know because he's a legend in football these belgian players now have the chance to become legends in their own right and bring home the world cup. so mark do teams hungry to win what will be decisive all who will be decisive in this battle tonight in st petersburg i think there is a trio on either side that can make the difference i mean obviously for france you've got. paul pogba from belgium you even have the point i'm normally which one of those trios plays best will probably decide the match and that means it could be a fantastic game if you're thinking about all the attacking potential normally world cup semifinals have a real tight affairs as we might see with england croatia tomorrow or they're like seven more when germany beat brazil so here's hoping for a similar exciting storyline tonight absolutely i'm looking forward to a really exciting game and mark made as well of course be talking about this when

it's all over thank you very much for coming in and sharing your expertise with us . well good news for belgium as their country is the great fun of a met claim the delaware jersey in the tour de france that's after monday's team time trial where van after minutes b. and c. recently in big stood high temperatures and hilly course to reign supreme they were four seconds faster than chris froome and team sky over the pretty five kilometer course but that allowed room to move up in new growth standings as he bids for a record equalling fifty two a title. for business monikers the end create tensions between the u.s. and china a prompting companies to change their strategy they have to react somehow richard to stay in business it's only a week since the latest tit for tat terrorist from china and the united states but multinationals are already scrambling to readjust supply chains so that goods bound

issue an extremely complex issue it has taken the world decades to come through the system that we're having currently or that we used to have until very recently it's very complicated because you have of course resources on one side well for one side you have a global intertwined demand supply chains and you have a president in the united states who doesn't look at trade in its complexities but he looks at his country he looks at certain deals that he might find fair or less fair and he basically puts a flame to the entire system and right now the whole thing is just going up in flames so obviously it's going to be extremely complicated to reach a balance so once we lost what we had for the last couple of years and we can also see that with the latest figures from the. e.w.

saying that investor confidence in germany has reached a six year low just briefly last is there anything that could brighten up the day. not really and that's very clear why that index went down to has been going down for five months but now it has seen an unexpectedly steep drop and that is obviously because of all these trade worries over because it's pretty clear that analysts as well as investors don't think that things are getting better anytime soon all right last how to their reporting for us from the fact that stock exchange thank you so much. a jury in california will have to decide whether one santos week to kill a round up is to blame for the cancer off a forty six year old groundskeeper it's the first trial in which roundup is said to have caused cancer a claim repeatedly denied by the chemicals company if successful the legal challenge could open floodgates of litigation monsanto was recently acquired by the german firm. all global smartphone sales have been
