a bigger presence at the next summer olympics in tokyo in twenty twenty international olympic committee president almost box says they have scouted more than fifty athletes to form an all refugee team and ten member refugee team took part in the twenty sixteen rio games. italian and french maritime authorities have continued cleanup operations near the island of corsica after two cargo ships collided on monday no injuries were reported the accident caused a fuel leak stretching four kilometers across the waters teams work to pump out the polluted material in this changing weather conditions. well so the united states now where president trump has declared a state of emergency as hurricane michael blasts its way toward the florida coastline michel's strengthen to a category four hurricane packing winds of over two hundred kilometers per hour as

it approaches the coast with landfall expected in the next few hours forecasters are predicting massive rainfall and storm water surges of up to four meters half a million people living in coastal areas are being urged to move to higher ground president trump says preparations are well at hand while the state's governor as issued a dire warning. tallahassee could see sustained hurricane force winds of seventy five miles per hour or more. again hurricane michael is forecast to be the most destructive storm to hit the florida panhandle in decades this storm will be life threatening and extremely dangerous with little room. for again we have another one coming so we've done very well north carolina south carolina texas bar one week ago so many listeners. while this hurricane comes as thousands of 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 going to be quite fast moving hurricane in comparison to other and so we have seen in the past few months ok no 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 hurricane quarantine 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 in 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 have 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 transition and 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 so you can cause a big danger to those still evacuating out. another 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. the u.s. ambassador to the united nations nikki haley has announced her resignation she appeared alongside president trump at the white house to confirm the move but gave you a little about why she's stepping down. as one of only a few original point appointees still at the white house will resign at the end of

the year. the u.s. ambassador his resignation took many by surprise. nikki haley and u.s. president donald trump haven't always seen eye to eye but addressing the prince a after the announcement the two was singing each other's praises nikki haley ambassador to the united nations has been very special to me she's done an incredible job she's a fantastic person after she was appointed to the u.n. post in november two thousand and sixteen prior to that she was the first female governor of south carolina. the forty six year old was seen as one of the more central figures in the trump administration costs months warden at the president's second trip to the united nations including his first time chairing the security council as highly said serving had been an on a but it was now time to move on i was governor for six years and we've dealt with a hurricane a thousand year flood

a church shooting. and then they come in and in two years have russia and iran and north korea it's been eight years of intense time and i'm a believer in term of that from think you have to be selfless enough to know when you step on someone else to be president trump made no indication as to who may replace haley in the role and but he said he would make a decision in the coming weeks. now living on death row more than fifty countries around the world still impose the death penalty rights groups say people condemned to death often live in dehumanizing and isolation some are even torture. as today marks the sixteenth world day against the death penalty we look at what conditions are like for convex waiting for execution. carried dean hmong the sixteenth person to be executed in the u.s. this year his death by lethal injection was recorded in 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 he started breathing heavily and then at ten thirty nine and twelve seconds the curtain went down possibly in the process took about fifteen minutes total. carried dean 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 are executed and 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 nastia

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. for television images like these of a former police chief being sentenced to death for murder and bribery last year are extremely rare. thing 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 us the time a prisoner 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 tortured amnesty international has also cited reports of prisoners being executed without being able to say goodbye to their families. aid organizations are warning that a cholera epidemic in yemen is raging out of control a brutal civil war there has brought millions of people to the brink of starvation and with much needed food medical supplies cut off the country faces a humanitarian catastrophe. these women have traveled for days with their sick children to reach this clinic 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. i mean. 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 fell 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. football now and 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. to reconnect with fans supporters had the chance to see the german national players and a close. 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 taking twenty course the last minute thomas miller don't forget then to forget. even thomas millar a poster boy for germany's failings this summer and fall by munich's current struggles support for pines clutch of national players isn't what it used to be. a shake up of the squad never happened but i guess it doesn't make sense to change twenty players. needs a break he's had it is 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 sonny. brandt and the team of venom may have more experience but they get to produce their best for you if you live side. should and give up they need to play more you join.

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. let's go to business christophe now a new pressure on car makers that's right bryan the discussion in luxembourg was long and heated and at the end of it european environment ministers have agreed to a thirty five percent carbon dioxide reduction for new cars by twenty thirty at the ministers' meeting in luxembourg were essentially split between eastern and western europe germany backed by eastern european member states fiercely resisted the forty percent cut which the european. parliament voted for last week the target was reduced to thirty percent for bands luxembourg the netherlands and nordic states had pushed for more ambitious reductions the meeting aims to establish the u.s.

position for talks at the un climate summit in poland in december. now let's get some more analysis on this deal with our correspondent banned riegert in brussels banned are the targets that you ministers agreed on in line with the demands from this week's un appeal to drastically address global warming the u.n. experts have also for rep it an unprecedented reforms and none of this is achieved by the agreement reached in luxembourg this night it's well the targets are now well in line with the overall. targets of the un but it's not overly ambitious you have to keep in mind that the car emissions in europe only a very tiny fraction of the overall problem when it comes to the climate change of worldwide and so much more important the emissions from power plants and also private teaching systems and i'm in this is also about to do more in these six but

they did not lower the already existing emission targets in these fears so they go with a common position into the negotiations but it's not unprecedented and not rep it bare and the german government was pushing for a less stringent c o two reduction germany has been having a reputation as an advocate for more and vajra metal protection has that changed now. germany when it comes to emission reductions is certainly not at the forefront and not at the oven god the government in berlin is clearly trying to protect the german carmakers which have a little problem its competitiveness but its comes through the reduction of emissions and so it's more surprising that the german minister actually gave in to the thirty five percent target she was obliged to fight for thirty percent but in the night she gave up and now she's hoping that the negotiations with parliament

will go smoothly because parliament is aiming for forty percent and the negotiations are starting now and they hope to strike a deal in somebody in the middle between thirty five and forty so the bargaining is going on but germany is certainly not the poster boy for emissions that's clear and representatives of the automotive industry certainly were watching last night's discussion what does this decision by the e.u. ministers now mean for the car industry. become makers have to sell more zero emission and electric cars in the future twenty thirty to reach these targets. but the targets are not set for every individual so you can still sell a fuel guzzling s.u.v.s on the one hand if you would sell to one of two zero emission cars on the other hand so the fleet is the important thing and that german comic is have to come up is more solutions french comic as for example better in

this field the french government already says we can reach forty percent easily so the germans have to catch up and bring their rigor of reporting from brussels where and thank you so much. now here in germany a court has ruled in favor of banning diesel vehicles and parts of the capital 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 not fox wagons emissions scandal has thrust the impact of thirty days into the spotlight and germany is one of a number of countries that have missed deadlines to bring down levels of nitrogen dioxide. a typical evening rush hour seen in berlin. many diesel cars will soon be banned from some traffic their affairs in 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. as a slide on the us unfortunately we were not able to achieve car free zones today but the court did acknowledge that creating such exclusion zones would be better than solutions that would lead to traffic detours. 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. to most of the scrub that should be reduced in general they just have to see for themselves what it's like yeah you can barely get across the street. cause are your plans if you don't there are so many cars here it's a bit questionable whether the ban will really help if. they should make the cars smarter then we wouldn't need any bands. and

a lot 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 stuttgart and frankfurt now with berlin on board more german cities are likely to follow suit. the global financial system is becoming increasingly unstable that's the conclusion of a report presented at a meeting of the international monetary fund and the world bank taking place on the indonesian island of bali trade tensions especially 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. 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 policy clarity before engaging in new projects recent world bank rubin also 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 met and measures that distort trade. the president of the world bank jim yong kim speaking there. and we have a reminder of the top stories we're following for you at this hour a ball garion man has been arrested in germany and charged with the rape and murder

of journalist from tory amar noble the suspect is expected to be extradited to a bug area that remains unclear if the t.v. presenter death was linked to her work. and people in florida are bracing for what could be the worst storm in decades as heard from michael is upgraded to a category four forecasters are predicting massive rainfall and storm surges of up to four meters half a million people are being urged of coastal areas. this is d. w. news coming to you live from berlin we have a fresh bulletin coming up at the top of the hour in the meantime for all the latest news and information you can always check our website that's t w dot com for now for me and the entire team here in berlin thanks for watching.
