we've heard india today deny pakistani claims that any indian fighter jets were shocked india says all its pilots accounted for at the same time we haven't really heard any official reaction from the indian government to get into prime isn't is meeting with his national security advisor with his father and six creates an intelligence officials to discuss the situation indeed foreign minister who was at the summit in china has said that india is really not interested in escalating this photo and there are reports they did media off airports being closed in seven places in north india in punjab also in the kashmir in srinagar which is the capital of indian it did administered kashmir and of course those reports have sparked a few that are also reports that suggest that is. off of it all out. panic the border india has said that it's aerial strikes yesterday struck militants it holds responsible for the suicide bombing two weeks ago

a bombing that targeted as paramilitary police also say that those militants ema hammad that they are planning more attacks against india have they presented any evidence to support those claims. no we haven't. had any details about that since those aerial strikes yesterday carried out by india deep inside pakistani territory i think one of the issues here also is that we have already heard of the official confirmation we really hearing just claims and counterclaims in both the indian side and the pakistani side now we were getting reports yesterday that pakistani police have also cordoned off the area where those strikes took place they're not even letting the local police in so i think it will take some time before we kind of really nor what might happen there. thank you so much for bringing us up to date. correspond in delhi.

now moving on to the vietnamese capital hanoi where u.s. president all trump and north korean leader kim jong il and are just hours away from kicking off their second summit in less than a year leaders are expected to have a brief one on one meeting later tonight donald trump began the day with talks with vietnamese president knew we troll the two countries signed off on a number of trade deals and trump once again held up the u.s. relationship with vietnam as an example for north korea trump is pushing john yang to give up its nuclear weapons program in exchange for economic development talks in vietnam comes eight months after a historic summit in singapore first between city and u.s. president and a north korean leader. corresponded to his in hanoi i spoke to him a short while ago and i asked him what we can expect from trump and kim's one on

one meeting today. but i think this meeting today it's more of a social meeting and they have a twenty minute conversation one on one and then it will be a dinner here at the metropole hotel in hanoi and i think that's an opportunity for both leaders to get to know each other better to deepen and enhance their personal relationships because they only met once before face to face and that was at that summit in singapore and there they didn't spend that much time together they didn't have that much of an opportunity to actually get to know each other so here in hanoi they're allowing more time for that hence i think that dinner tonight and president trump made it clear that he seems to be very interested in a close personal relationship with north korean leader kim jong un at least in his tweet this morning he called kim jong un his friend terry. you know because boston heartache there reporting from hanoi well let's check on some other stories making headlines around the world today u.s. media have published explosive testimony from donald trump's former lawyer michael

humanitarian crisis the german government has repeatedly denied any knowledge of german arms a technology being involved in that war but an exclusive investigation by a team of german media outlets including d w news suggests those weapons are being used in yemen here's a report. in yemen's brutal war it's the civilians who have bearing the brunt thousands have died millions on the brink of starvation. i think the dominant calls has been the saudi led coalition the fact that it keeps bombing civilians and civilian infrastructure despite having the best weaponry money can buy. saudi arabia and the united arab emirates up both fighting in yemen and it's here at this arms fan abu dhabi that they're shopping for the latest lethal technology both among the german arms industry's top clients but belin has repeatedly denied any

knowledge of german made arms employed in yemen i'm not aware of it we have in our coalition agreement let down so i'm very strictly rules for further export of military weapons to parties immediately and directly involved in the german conflict it is now being implemented i have not heard any news about it so far. germany prides itself on these strict export guidelines which ban the sale of weapons to countries involved in armed conflict. but d.-w. and its investigative partners report mentioned stand magazine lighthouse reports and belling cut trolled loads of phidias photos and satellite images and found evidence that german weapons sold to the emirates and saudi arabia oh in fact being used in the yemen war in the air at sea and on land. this is
