8:03 am
but the way in which he she was ousted has left a bad taste in the mouths of many sudanese late last night defense minister was sworn in as the head of the country's military transition council but to the people this looks like it might just be another dictatorship. that the good is that this is a false name did not fool here this is a reproduction of the same regime we do not accept this and we will stay on the streets and to the regime changes completely clearly there was little tinny it's not right that the government has repressed us and now still wants to see control and power over us. as young people and citizens we see what's happening the government is manipulating us. not there cannot be another regime in the.
8:04 am

8:05 am
offers it to us is not saying any more just mean. because we lost so much in this time we lost so much people who died in daraa for we lost people in the moment and we lost half of this was done this is to make me sad in the other side also a little bit of sadness i'm not physically sad it's also one that but also i am happy that something is happening i and that we are not to be under these dictators and is. ok but that's ok there has been a transition of leadership the military has taken over the former defense minister been or is in charge now can you tell us a little bit more about him and what he represents. unfortunately he is but is ending against the byzantine the muslim brother. who is a people now fighting again is it more is on or monstrous in the city and is a problem is also. he's also bought of using of debating or the military who was
8:06 am
committing suicide for what it's a problem is this where you see the people say no no we're going to city again we're not accepting if you remember he's also the last months when i'm going to shoot he changed he's a government after i was offended because mr did it and so then it became as visit as events because he knows that if he's go away then he still is a poet is. that it is like the same way somehow is going to be the same to get as a play before in one thousand eighty nine when they come to paul also they blazed yet if you remember son of dr who was also the leader of the muslim brother if it is time when he sent her but she it was a poem with the poet for don he is good to see again as a poet and i think he come and he be a leader again after some months is that it is all the time and so then these people would say no and that's why they are now in the street so you still have an
8:07 am
islamist military regime in place so you're saying it's a closely aligned with the muslim brotherhood what do you hearing from your contacts in khartoum right now the people who are still on the streets defying the military curfew that's been imposed what are they telling you of people who say things out fittest they are tired of just a third of muslim brothers they don't need it anymore and so done. saying yeah we know this yet and we don't we don't accept it anymore and we are going to protest until these horrid it is finished if you see you know also when he say in his statement is that they have no if he says even you don't mention is this is this is legs or national security service he said he doing a good job i don't think they do a good job they killing in the four months more than. sixty people or something and he didn't even say they have to go to court they have to be charged for what they done adam let me ask you you. know the region very well you've dealt with the
8:08 am
regime before how do you see this playing out how dangerous is the situation in khartoum right now with the people still on the streets defying the military demanding that their current regime be swept away i think it is the situation is even dangerous because the scene is in sudan also it is a different kind of of. not only this and that is on has also. done i was engaging in darfur before but now somehow they declare themselves. behind that evolution and we hope they would continue this and the other side also that is this is a different war was about a foot in the mountains that is i wasn't also people who have who have a weapon what we hope is that this is a peaceful demonstration go on as if you know tried to evict people by force because this is a lot of hope now and also hope that is with more. as i say more of support from outside ok thank you very much for talking with this is morning and bahar sudanese

8:10 am
a doctor inside the embassy ecuador had clearly had enough of the controversial guest in london accusing him of interfering in its foreign policies and violating the rules of asylum. it will be in the bottom a lot and in the next few hours the government will reveal some details of which the world is not yet aware that justify the decision taken by president moreno that they regard assad just staying at the embassy in london during the term of former president correa and foreign minister. the two of them tolerated things such as mr assad putting feces on the walls of the embassy but it is the lane behind. the police van took a song to court where he was found guilty of breaching bail in an earlier case but person anderson as lawyers confirm that the arrest relates to an extradition request from the united states since two thousand and ten with that join his sons

extradition to the united states. is a member of germany's parliament for the socialist party she's written and spoken extensively on the subject of wiki leaks and moral issues involving involved in whistleblowing d.w. asked her if she thought germany should offer julian assange political asylum i think he would be a clear case for asylum because i see the persecution he would fear in the united states is kind of a political persecution they have something against vicky leaks as a platform because there have been things published which were against their own political or governmental interest like the cables etc like the war crimes they committed in afghanistan and iraq they did not want these issues to be published and he made possible that they were published that is also the reason why chelsea manning was sentenced to thirty five years in prison and she only was set free
8:13 am
because of barack obama in his last days of service but i think all saw julian assange as quote face many decades of prison for that and i don't think it's justified i want like to see that the german government. tell some strong words to theorise army and reminds her of freedom of press and how it is supporting to protect him also i expect the european union to take a clear stand because it's a matter of also human rights and be sure to defend this person even if you don't like that person personally. some of the other stories making headlines around the world today british prime minister theresa may has addressed the house of commons defending her decision to delay the u.k.'s departure from the e.u. they told lawmakers that her priority was to deliver regs the european union leaders gave the u.k.

a six month extension to break that out emergency talks in brussels on wednesday. and it on most space x. has successfully launched its falcon heavy rocket into space and then for the first time safely landed all three rocket boosters back on earth. the rocket launch was also the company's first for a paying customer delivering a satellite in space for a saudi based communications. staying in space and is really mission to the moon failed when the lunar lander crashed into the moon's surface mission control said engine failure was to blame but israelis aerospace officials still hailed the mission as a breakthrough for low cost small scale spacecraft for. israelis held their breath held their heads or even cold on a higher power as it became clear that something had gone wrong national t.v.

carried live images from inside the control room and then the tension was pople when the news that the land is crash was announced there was solemn applause for the prime minister benjamin netanyahu and project chiefs trying to stay positive about the outcome you win some you lose. if. you try again and. this spacecraft was called bear a sheet which translates literally in the beginning it hitched a ride into space aboard space x.'s rocket in february this year the missed. it was an attempt to make history it would have been the first privately funded spacecraft to land safely on the moon but nevertheless the project did achieve some milestones . we've achieved an amazing success in bringing a spacecraft to the moon almost bringing it to the landing. it is by far
8:16 am
the smallest the cheapest spacecraft ever to get to the moon. so despite the disappointment there is reason to celebrate the project paves the way for future low cost lunar exploration. of more on this story live from d.w. science is here good morning so. something went wrong what went wrong well it was a crash landing we don't really know what went wrong exactly because just before that during the last seconds of the landing process is apparently only one hundred fifty meters above the surface of the moon the mission control lost communication the screens went off the signal went off so we don't really know what's happened during the last meters apparently it fell down and was scattered on the moon surface. just before the country the communication was lost well the problem with the main engine was for part and so i thought maybe it was the. engine was. just
8:17 am
about if it was clear that a seat this kind of wasn't very stable wasn't very robust it was privately funded if you need it need to be perceived so there was no backup was taller panels there was no backup for the communication system so it wasn't really constructed to be robust i mean and ok so cheap dirty and all failed i'm afraid but to some degree it was a success it got you know almost to the right to the very end help of a setback is this for the israeli space program. well you could see the disappointment and sadness on people's faces but everyone acted up domestically and you can see on their twitter feed how sure of their way out of the shore they seemed to be about their goal to reach to reach the moon they tweeted so someone tweeted if if they land and then they corrected no not if we learned but when
8:18 am
they seem to be very sure and of course the big goal was to reach the moon so and that didn't happen so it is kind of a set back but they still want to be optimistic and say you know at least we're out the seventh nation to our bit. and they got within one hundred fifty meters that must really be painful for the people put together what exactly was the point of this mission well it was a. political mission then a scientific one that wasn't really big science barred. and you can see this also on the trip to feed there were many selfies made by the lender we can see one now maybe which hopefully comes in oh yeah there it is which says it's a small country but big dreams that we that we see it and this was in the front of all the cell face that kind of shows you know what what this call is it was it was morphing an emotional thing was packed with symbols and the moments us really prominent we are now five years after the first moon landing and they tried to copy
