funding it's not yet known if marin over his killing had anything to do with her work however the latest arrest comes after police question and then released a rumanian man in bulgaria yesterday. our political correspondent albert solid is following this for us this morning oliver what more can you tell us about the arrest here in germany where we're looking at only one source right now and that is of bulgaria in a newspaper and they are saying that the suspect was arrested in germany following the murder the put to the derm and police was not able to confirm this however at this point so we're really looking at only one source but that source says that the suspect the perpetrator was known to the bulgarian police as a criminal offender and that he did not know the victim personally in spite of that the victim cellphone then was found in the in the suspects flats and the source

also reports that the suspect allegedly fled to germany on sunday already so it's not clear as you already mentioned if that murder can be seen in connection to her jaw to victoria mari nose job of journalism or if she became victim of sexual assault by chance but it's the third murder in the european union all the journalists here this year in the certainly raises many questions it certainly does raise a many questions all around the german government is among those including the european commission and other you member states calling for a swift investigation what does berlin want to see happen. well a spokes person of the german government condemn this murder of course and they are calling to protect the freedom of press we are seeing we're seeing that the free press is under attack not only here in germany where we were written is

seeing street riots in the eastern town of chemist's where journalists were also under attack and were targeted so the fear is that one of the core principles of the western of western democracy here is under attack which is the free press and that certainly raises lots of pressure to find the perpetrator and to shed light on this case here. looking into this force's morning thanks very much now for a look at some of the other stories making the news today the united states ambassador to the united nations nikki halley as resigned from her post president trump confirmed halle's resignation and said she would leave the post at the end of the year the president says he's considering his former deputy national security advisor dina powell as her replacement. refugees are to have a bigger presence at the next summer olympics in tokyo in twenty twenty

international olympic committee president thomas pa says they have scouted more than fifty athletes to form and a whole refugee team and there's room for more a ten member refugee team took part in the twenty six team rio games. a former vice president of guatemala has been jailed for more than fifteen years for corruption locks on a ball that he and twelve others were found guilty of organizing a fraudulent government contract a un backed anti corruption commission assisted guatemalan prosecutors that he still faces additional charges. u.s. president donald trump has declared a state of emergency as hurricane michael blasted sway towards the florida coastline michael is set to be upgraded from a category three to a category four hurricane before it makes landfall in the next few hours the state's governor is warning this storm could be the most deadly and destructive to

hit the florida panhandle in decades forecasters are predicting massive rainfall and the storm water surges of up to four meters half a million people living in coastal areas are being urged to move to higher ground. while this hurricane comes as thousands in the region are still reeling from another storm hurricane florence just a few weeks ago let's go to miami now and find out more from correspondent nicholas snyder nick thanks for being with us what are people in florida expecting over the next few hours with the next few hours later i mean with the next few hours we should be seen landfall with hurricane michael. should be around around twelve hours for say laying around early afternoon and hitting the florida panhandle then working its way up with the next couple of hours through alabama and georgia this is actually quite fast moving hurricane in comparison to other and so we have seen in the past few months ok down many in florida and neighboring states especially

carolinas of already seen widespread flooding and property loss from hurricane florence just a few weeks ago you how's that affecting preparations for this hurricane. well it's very important for us to remember that these are two completely different hurricanes with. us with a category one and now having hurricane michael with hitting us with most likely a hurricane category four it's important to understand the difference between the two with hurricane florence we're mostly prepared for flooding and having a high waters within the culture regions in the carolinas where the panhandle where more scared with transportation issues with the high winds and possibly having a tougher time to be able to get to residents other people that are in need so transportation and evacuation and response teams getting over to the right people are definitely out of our highest concern right now. federal authorities have

already touched on that a transportation issue they're warning of a major infrastructure damage what are authorities concerned about in that area right now or right now with our ally and other utilities are mostly concerned about the not only the power outages but being able to safely navigate the roads to be able to get to the residents everyone else that have not evacuated and for the transmission again the people who have evacuated out safely since this is a fast moving storm it will most likely be working its way quickly throughout the state into other states should cause a big danger to those still evacuating out. and other response teams have been trying to work around the clock to figure out what is the best way to mitigate this after the storm hits and be able to get the right supplies over to the people in need as fast as possible ok a lot of logistics operations already in motion there nicholas snyder in miami for us thanks very much thank you.

now living on death row more than fifty countries around the world still practice the death penalty rights groups a people condemned to die off live and does human eyes in conditions and isolation some are even tortured as they march the sixteenth world day against the death penalty we look at what conditions are like for convicts waiting to die. carried dean maw the sixteenth person to be executed in the u.s. this year his death by lethal injection was recorded and meticulous detail he turned his head left and mouth several words to piers a number of witnesses including the words i love you he said at ten twenty five am . at ten twenty seven am here you have started breathing heavily and then at ten thirty nine and twelve seconds the curtain went down possibly into the process took

about fifteen minutes total. carried in moore had been sentenced to death as a twenty two year old for the murder of two taxi drivers he spent thirty eight years in prison awaiting his execution which was pushed off seven times. there are currently more than two thousand seven hundred inmates on death row in the u.s. they typically spent more than a decade in prison before they're executed. during this time they're generally isolated from other prisoners excluded from prison programs and restricted in terms of visitation and exercise spending as many as twenty three hours a day alone in this cells. the united states is the only western country to still uphold the death penalty last year twenty three people were executed. but execution numbers in the u.s.

are declining and they pale in comparison to some other countries in the world among the fifty six countries who still have the death penalty and use it iran saudi arabia iraq and pakistan top the table. but the country with by far the most executions is china. chinese authorities don't release any figures regarding the death penalty. or television images like these. of a former police chief being sentenced to death for murder and bribery last year are extremely rare q if you think most trials happen behind closed doors and chinese authorities maintain almost total secrecy over the number of people sentenced to death amnesty international estimates that the number of death penalties in china is in the thousands. that would mean that china executed more people last year than all the countries in the world put together. in contrast to the u.s.

the time the prison the spends in jail before their execution is often only a few months. but conditions for death row prisoners are often inhumane. a shackled to the wall and. amnesty international has also cited reports of prisoners being executed without being able to say goodbye to their families. who are in the situation in china let's bring in joshua rosenzweig he's the deputy regional director of amnesty international's east asia office in hong kong thanks for being with us this morning we just heard there that china is by far the most secretive country in the world when it comes to the death penalty can you shed some light for us this morning on the estimated number of executions carried out in china annually . sure o.-s. as you just noted the number of actual number of executions in china is a closely held state secret by the chinese government who prevents any information

really from coming out that would allow us to get access to the really permitted the real number. amnesty international and other researchers do what we can to scour open source materials to find the bits and pieces of reporting on. death sentences and executions that come out of the chinese media but really the number that we come up with in the end is but a small fraction of what the total number is based on research by us and other researchers and state ok i see numbers in the thousands i quoted it is that realistic. i think that is realistic of course the chinese government has made a point of arguing that the number has been drastically reduced over the past decade . the proof is really up to them to show that's why we call on the chinese government to be transparent about the numbers because we can't simply take their

word for it is if they don't provide us with enough information to verify that the death penalty is read it is being reduced and to know more about how it's being carried out in trying to get it why do so many people in china face the death penalty. i think there are a number of factors one is that in china the number of crimes that are eligible for the death penalty is still quite high our currently not number is forty six and it includes offenses like economic crimes and drug related crimes. under international human rights law would not qualify as the most serious crimes that are permitted for. so you know the scope of the criminal offenses that china uses is quite broad i think there's another factor which is that there's a broad. sense within china in the chinese government in particular that the death

penalty is a very important to treatment for maintaining social order which is a parent concern of the chinese government so the death penalty they see the death penalty as a as a deterrent and therefore you know there's an incentive to use it ok now china is of course a closed also or terry and regime structure in terms of its government nonetheless is there any public opposition to the death penalty including or especially where you are in hong kong. it's very difficult inside mainland china to to organize. an organized opposition to the death penalty but one thing that is that we see is that there is scope for it to beat about the use of the death penalty within china and over the years that has led some lawyers and other academics divorce their concerns and try to mobilize support unfortunately there still remains a very strong public opinion in support of the deficit county in china largely

because most of what they hear comes from the government it comes from this very deterrent focus. emphasis on the importance of the death penalty if people have more information or they look at individual cases where they're just going to be easier sometimes they come to different conclusions joshua rosenzweig deputy director regional director and that's the end national in hong kong for us this morning thanks very much you are. well this to yemen now and already one of the world's poorest countries yemen is facing catastrophe a beautiful brutal civil war has brought millions of people to the brink of starvation and aid organizations are warning that dishes are getting worse as a cholera epidemic rages out of control. these women have traveled for days with their six children to reach these kinnick the children are now likely to survive that is east in most cases an infusion is enough to stop diarrhea and help cure the

infection but this kind of treatment is not available everywhere in yemen and since this summer the number of cholera cases has risen sharply that i mean yemen it's getting worse again. more than every second patient we receive here is suffering from cholera this is extremely worrying. the beds in makeshift tents like this all occupied this hospital in the capital sanaa is one of the few that still operational. doctors and nurses are pushing the limits they don't turn anyone away . with a blockade of yemen's ports almost no food or medicines can enter the country. but aid organizations have been able to vaccinate many children and young people against cholera. unicef and its partners are vaccinated over three hundred thousand people against cholera last year including one hundred sixty thousand children it

was possible because there was a ceasefire. that the humanitarian situation for civilians has become critical. many families don't know whether they'll have enough to eat the next day according to unicef a child under the age of five dies every ten minutes in yemen either from hunger or preventable diseases. we have some football now so far it has not been a good year for germany's national football team they were booted out in the group stage of the twenty eight hundred world cup and were then embroiled in a scandal involving star player. now the team wants to reconnect with its fan base and berlin supporters had the chance to see the german national players. it's the type of reception the germany team really gets these days five thousand cheering fans isn't bad considering the events of the past summer but not all that surprising either given tickets were distributed through burlington's youth

football clubs hardly the toughest critics they flocked to get a glimpse of their favorite stars do you remember watching tony pulis the last minute thomas miller don't forget then to forget. even thomas muller a poster boy for germany's failings this summer and fall by munich's current struggles support for binds clutch of national players isn't what it used to be. the result was a shake up of the squad never happened but i guess it doesn't make sense to change twenty players. jule more dangerous needs a break he's had it's own system scope's is not good to us all so i would mix things up a bit more and bring in some younger players from different clubs. but the only genuine newcomer is a start but fans i'm most excited by leave royce sunny. and brant and the team of venom may have more experience but they get to produce their best for you if you live side. they shouldn't give up they need to play more easygoing

up. to do their thing and we'll win games. for the time being fans remain skeptical this open training session was the first step towards reconnecting with supporters for those lucky enough to be in attendance anyway. while more pressure on car makers over to christophe with business now a new auto emissions targets for bra. that's right brian after thirteen hours of heated discussions european union environment ministers have agreed to a thirty five percent carbon dioxide reduction for new cars by twenty thirty the ministers' meeting in luxembourg or essentially split between eastern and western europe germany and backed by eastern european member states fiercely resisted the forty percent cut which european parliament voted for last week this target was addressed to thirty percent for bands luxembourg and avalanche the nordic states have pushed for more ambitious productions the meeting aims to establish the e.u.'s

position position for talks at the e.u. climate summit in poland. now here in germany a court has ruled in favor of banning diesel vehicles and parts of berlin the move could impact up to two hundred thousand cars potentially including models that are just three or four years old the aim is to improve air quality now fox wagons emissions gabble has thrust the impact of these all in to the spotlight and germany is one of a number of countries that have missed deadlines to bring down the levels of nitrogen oxide. a typical evening rush hour seen in berlin. many diesel cars will soon be banned from some traffic thoroughfares and the german capital. the band goes into effect the middle of next year but will only affect parts of major streets with the heaviest traffic. the berlin court's decision came in response to a lawsuit by a prominent environmental organization that is not satisfied with the ruling. is

a slide on the us unfortunately we were not able to achieve con free zones today but the court did acknowledge that creating such exclusion zones would be better than solutions that would lead to traffic due to us. at least eleven streets in berlin will have partial bans where levels of air pollutants are especially high around two hundred thousand car owners will have to take detours around the exclusion zones. those moves to most of the scranton should be reduced in general they just have to see for themselves what it's like yeah you can barely get across the street people could pick up a loose cause if you have plans if you know there are so many cars here it's a bit questionable whether the ban will really help if it is on a hot day should make the cars smarter then we wouldn't need any bands of almost kind of. diesel engines are the main reason for poor air quality in germany the pollutants they emit can harm the lungs and cause heart and circulation disease

diesel engine bans are already in effect in hamburg ducard and frankfurt now with berlin on board more german cities are likely to find the suit. the global financial system is becoming increasingly unstable that's the conclusion of a report presented at the meeting of the international monetary fund and the world bank taking place in bali indonesia currently trade tensions between the united states and china are one of the greatest threats to stability but the report also warns of the risks of rising debt and many of the world's emerging economies the prospect of britain leaving the european union without an exit deal is also considered a threat to financial stability. but the most notable risk to the global economy is undoubtedly an escalating trade war let's take a listen on how world bank president jim yong kim described the possible contagion effect of protectionist policies. protectionist trade policies can cause

a chain reaction as more countries adopt similar measures. the global recovery is built on investment and there's a real danger that businesses will decide to wait for more clarity before engaging in new projects recent world bank shows that in a scenario where investor confidence is shaken and investments drop every country will feel the negative effects we need to continue to support trade reforms that can deliver greater prosperity for all that includes removing trade barriers in areas such as services agriculture and e-commerce and reducing subsidies and other measures that distort trade in the world bank president jim yong kim speaking there and staying with increased risks a new study shows german firms could face billions of euros in extra terrorists in case of a hard hit it warns that thousands of employees would suffer the report comes in the lead up to this month's european union summit on the topic experts say a breakthrough is vital germany's federation of industries the german companies

would face extraterritorial over three billion euros if britain leaves the e.u. in a disorderly fashion and that europe would also then be faced with massive disruption . on the twenty ninth of march twenty nine thousand it would be a disaster it would cause huge difficulties for thousands of european companies and hundreds of thousands of employees on both sides of the english channel. goods can move between britain and the e.u. without checks alternatives because it's still in the single market the port of dover alone ten thousand trucks a day. breaks it would mean instant chaos trucks would be backed up for miles as checks became. with e.u. companies so closely into connected broken supply chains would force many to halt production industry is astonished that politicians have allowed the brakes at countdown to fritter away without any tangible solutions. going to politicians

on both sides allow another fruitless summit to happen like the one in september but what if there's a risk you could slide into a disorderly break the consequences would be a massive crisis. to b.d. i want to see a transition period in which britain remains inside the single market but the clock is ticking louder the last possible break that summit has been pencilled in for mid november if differences can be bridged by then breaks it seems inevitable. google has appealed to european union's biggest ever antitrust fine of five billion dollars impose for what the e.u. said was the us tech giants illegal abuse of its market domination and mobile device operating systems the company refuses refutes the charges though the case could take years to settle at the same time who also launched its latest array of phones and gadgets for its new pixel free smartphone both an artificial intelligence driven camera that automatically picks the best nap for users also

comes with proof rental control of screen time for children. and here's a reminder of the top stories we are following for you. said d.n.a. from a newly detained suspect matches that found at the crime scene of a murdered journalist the suspect is in his twenty's and was arrested in germany it remains unclear if the killing of t.v. presenter victoria nova was linked to her work and activists around the globe are marking the world today against the death penalty they're campaigning for the abolition of capital punishment and for the improvement of conditions for death row prisoners they say are often degrading and if you think. you're watching the news from berlin we have a fresh bulletin coming up at the top of the hour in the meantime you can always check our web site for the latest news and information that's just for now thanks for watching wherever you.
