8:03 pm
were killed by pakistan based militants in kashmir news of a benign duns release described as a gesture of peace by the pakistani prime minister was also welcomed in pakistan. on humanitarian grounds and under the geneva convention pakistan had to hand him over to india we did so quickly to show the world we respect human rights. does hope now on both sides of the kashmir conflict that the pilots release will be enough to calm tensions. a welcome how was a wink about. welcome what was that like. well for india if we have to do it for being commando a benign then five months of welcome to welcome him back into the country information was trickling in all the time from last evening five pm local time but
8:04 pm
pakistani prime minister cameron conflict made his statement saying the pilots would be sure to used late last evening while india had aust for the pilot to be flown back to new denby pakistan confirmed that they would be sending the pilot back over to the authority walk up border and all day today there was actually a wait at the border to the details were collected there and he actually when she came through five hours later than expected reports are that this was because of documentary d.v.d.'s and procedural d.v.d.'s but of course when he did step across the border at about nine twenty pm local time a hero's welcome to him nonetheless and of course members of the indian armed forces were there to greet him at the border and many public figures and many are going to civilians in india read him on social media and with dogs all across to it as well so definitely a long day for indians but one with which ended in their watching mano despite this gesture of peace from pakistan there is still shelling along there so this border
8:05 pm
between the two countries in kashmir that this line of control. well the term gesture of peace was what imran khan the prime minister of pakistan used but india is not seeing this as a gesture of peace india seeing it just on abiding to the geneva convention and of course while this release of this pilot does deescalate the immediate tensions that have been building up over the last three weeks the issue is far from resolved as you mentioned firing along the line of control which is the de facto line that divides india out in the media from pakistan administered kashmir does still continue today earlier this evening before military personnel were killed once again in another encounter in the cup lot of district of christian use of the valley is still fraught with tension tensions continue india alleges that pakistan is not doing enough to combat terror pakistan of course denies this so even the
8:06 pm
immediate tensions may have come down a solution is still far from say ok you but. this has been going on for decades now and they're still shooting at each other what do you think is going to happen next in this crisis well phil it's hard to say at this point what exactly can be expected next it's also important to understand that there's a lot of political pressure on each side india is heading into a general election very soon and there was a lot of pressure on prime minister nuri and more the to act in an emphatic manner after the push back there was an expectation of a strike from india as and that was delivered however to step back from this war mongering sentiment all from this kind of bold statement making would be politically an ill advised move put it to be even today we heard from mr modi making cran statements in the election rallies so i it does seems very unlikely
8:07 pm

8:14 pm
member of the jewish community here in paris being jewish is important to him but so is being french that's why the increase in violence disturbs him so much to both parties and cities with their insults vandalism and sometimes even cases of murder for us that means staying aware and alert and always keeping an eye out so we wouldn't have to do that if we didn't feel threatened now we're also asking ourselves is france really the right place for us. around half a million jews live in france the third largest community behind israel in the us last year there were more than five hundred anti-semitic offenses here in increase of around seventy five percent. falsie califano president of the umbrella organization representing france's jewish community is also alarmed he says the real figures are much higher as not every offense is registered he's most concerned

8:19 pm
will make sure that they will not get away with it any longer. thousands of students have come together to demand that politicians save the planet so they can grow up in a world worth living in and they're demanding that politicians do something about it such as stop burning coal to generate electricity. it's no secret here in germany that the country's going to fail to reach its twenty twenty climate goals now in a bid to reduce greenhouse gases the german government has planned a call phase out by twenty thirty eight but for these school students hitting the streets of hamburg today that just isn't soon enough. the kids who took to the streets instead of going to classes today know exactly what their message is. i think it's important to stop using coal to produce electricity use in this possible and to be more aware of climate change like stop using plastic bags and stuff like that maybe it's sunny here because i'm concerned about climate change
8:20 pm
but seeing going to live is also a special experience. here i have taken to the streets today just like every friday personally i try to act in a sustainable way know at travel and i get around town by public transport or on a bicycle. i'm going to turn back had a private. message to everyone too. and i think we should focus more on the time to see this this is not about me doing the crime i said. the young protesters say they plan to continue demonstrating as part of their fridays for a few senate campaign. well to sports and chris how things and his i talk football welcome chris the women's football world cup that starts in june germany a took on two and one host france last night under a new coach what did we learn well we learned the new coach martina fawcett tech
8:21 pm
lindbergh has basically kept the team in their current form because their last loss came last march and more oppressively of her debut when that loss came at the hands of france now boston tech lindbergh is a former player decorated she won four euros and in terms of her coaching she had some success with switzerland she led them to their first world cup and first european championship what force tackling burke has promised to do is take the team on a brave innovative path to generate new excitement for the fans and the team as well is going to be very transparent and we saw a little asides of that in terms of course incorporating that the younger talent in the front and it looks good so far i mean they haven't missed a beat and the last but not least payback is for real because as i mentioned they got some payback against the team that defeated them last ok and now they any good that germany change course they're good you know you always have to consider them favorites are always solid in tournaments but the favorites the cup holders
8:22 pm
countries that i have from the united states they are the clear our favorite and then the hosts you have to factor in france because when you host a major tournament we could take at the netherlands in the twenty seventeen european championships they hosted in one so that gets france obviously up in the top three and then germany as i mentioned you never can discount them and i do think germany might edge out france is a favorite. because they just defeated france now one player making a late bid to make that germany national team is a thyroid cancer survivor by the name of an can't train burger the twenty eight year old goalkeeper currently plays for chelsea she recently got a call of back in november to the national team and here's the kicker just one year after being diagnosed with cancer she got the call up and she's played professionally we did manage to catch up with thirty w. sports and we have this report on her battle e n beating the deadly disease. back in november twenty seventh uncut tween bag-o.
8:23 pm
was in the prime of her career she had won the german bundesliga competed in the champions league and moved abroad to top clubs in france and england but then came a huge setback at age twenty seven she was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. five was a shock because. as a footballer you don't think about it because you have to live like how. you do sport every day so it was quite a shock when it came to fighting the disease it was inspired by her efforts to get into the starting eleven. round you have to five every day. even at my position i have to try every training session to be on the sunday on the pitch so and as a goalkeeper we have i don't know why we have a bad reputation we have crazy people. i wouldn't say i am.
8:24 pm
yeah i think that. and it showed what was most remarkable about her recovery was the timeline. the diagnosis was on the seventeen. and then on. my operation and on the. shelf general my idea. and off the. one. was on the. plate my first f.a. cup game and again. it's a story that could become even more special if bagger fulfills a dream of playing at the world cup in june. so what do you think chris will she well i think she has a good opportunity but we can't forget you germany is like a factory for goalkeepers the coach fostex limburg has already said we have
8:25 pm
a lot of goalkeepers good goalkeepers ahead of her but anything is possible you know i do think that burger has an opportunity just for inspiration more than anything else and she could possibly feel that third spot but she is twenty eight years old and she just missing got called up so really actually tracking that first team will be difficult but you can't deny what you know the obstacles she's overcome and i do think that she's would be a very important piece to the national team chris huntington thank you so much ok thanks. top story. has freed an indian pilot captured by his find a shot. across the. border crossing pakistan says. recent tensions. in somalis come to look at issues of the day long battle with militants from the hotel special forces are reported to have killed. fighters and. heavy casualties.
