president omar al bashir on thursday following months of street protests the military council as it calls itself says it will now rule the country for two years before elections can be held is this the outcome that people wanted in a moment i'll speak to an exiled sudanese rights activist but first let's look at a tumultuous day in sudan. the dictator has full and the people a celebrating. amidst the triumph it's easy to forget that this is just a first step in remaking sudan. the country has been rocked by successive coups and coup attempts ever since it gained independence in one thousand fifty six in one thousand nine hundred nine seized power in a coup of his own and managed to hold on to that power. up until just now.
9:03 am
but the way in which bashir was ousted has left a bad taste in the mouths of many sudanese late last night defense minister with 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 all this is a false name did not fool this is a reproduction of a same vision. we do not accept this and we will stay on the streets to the regime changes can legally reportable is money 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. there cannot be another regime that. this is a bloodthirsty leader and he wants to bring us another regime that no other means
9:04 am

9:05 am
over the former defense minister even off is in charge now can you tell us a little bit about him and what he represents. what he sort of dissenting still. is easy how is it people to not accepting him he would also say it is maybe it is the same kind of. play again. as he's also in the. military who is. so we still have effectively an islamist military regime in place aligned with the muslim brotherhood as you mentioned what can we expect them to do in this situation i simply don't expect so much of outside these bins of nose of people just in the state and they will demand to have civilian government without any military anymore and with the help of our own
9:06 am
community and what i've seen people would actually because if they actually have to sort of days it was sixty years they would sort all of this guy was just to get these the people are still on the streets here in contact with the demonstrators there defying the military curfew that's been imposed they've they're determined to get rid of this regime what do you think the prospects are of doing that. i think is the people who will do that because it's so much young of it what is it and does the big things that's the sort of allusion now is that young people who have. somehow dream of having food in these democracies and i think they would have made it i'm hoping it will get some helpful and tension of the community around the world as is happening now. when i was east of the can even if they have a statement i was in the united nations also how it would be talk about does today i think the hope is there so that the illusion is a done it could come on would be democracy for sure adam thank you very much for talking with us this morning on t.w. news bahar a sudanese rights activist living here in berlin is in germany as

9:10 am
is a member of germany's parliament for the socialist party she's written and spoken extensively on the subject wiki leaks and the moral issues involved in whistleblowing asked her if she thought germany would 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 the kulaks 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 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
9:11 am
justified i want like to see that the german government. tell some strong words yet to theorise army and reminds her of freedom of press and how would a 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 we should defend this person even if we don't like that person personally. you're watching g.w. news still to come hopes crushed by a crash landing but the israeli aerospace company is still calling its botched lunar mission a success and i don't want. to mindanao the second biggest island in the philippines it's known for its natural beauty but it's also the place the so-called islamic state chose to create a caliphate in southeast asia even before i ask came on the scene mindanao had seen
9:12 am
a long running power struggle between its christian majority and muslim minority. in may of twenty seventeen fighters made their move a few hundred fighters seized the city of. battle to flush them out they have a state of the region reporters are paid as well and hans christian traveled to mindanao to see what life is like there today. we are on patrol with the largest muslim rabbit group in mindanao the moro islamic liberation front m.i.l.f. for decades they fought for independence tens of thousands were killed. but since the self-proclaimed islamic state burst onto the scene in two thousand and seventeen the muslim rebels have joined forces with the philippine army both sides feel threatened by us fight has now lain neo. the muslim minority
9:13 am
strongly supports the m.i.l.f. only five percent of filipinos are muslims and almost all live in mindanao the areas are among the poorest in the philippines many here blame the christian majority government for their plight. we visit the military headquarters of the m.i.l.f. the government needs the rabbit support to secure a peace and to fight terror president rodrigue has promised them a far reaching autonomy is. the chief of staff isn't in uniform a sign perhaps of the shift from insurgency to politics. the m.i.l.f. has seen defectors joining i as we ask him what might happen if the autonomy project goes badly i would agree billy did a lot of people really become diminished. the ice history of. his
9:14 am
station. all the. doorway in their grow. and become bigger. he tells us that they will disarm up to thirty thousand fighters but only with full muslim autonomy. if not. remember we will not do commission of war and we will not give up our firearms which we promised to the government. this is what both sides are trying to avoid another more robbie the largest muslim city of the philippines lies in ruins bombed out after a few hundred s. fighters had occupied maradi for five months two years ago. more than one thousand people were killed tens of thousands remain displaced.
9:15 am
it was president to territory who ordered the bombing but he's also a strong supporter of muslim autonomy his form of peace adviser tells us. it is a struggle signal to the bad guys don't play around with this country i have been in the peace process under several presidents and we have not moved the us far as we have this time the president feels that we can improve as a nation if we try to give more authority and power to the locals but it must be under one flag the philippine flag. but if the autonomy drive fails more disaffected muslims could join radical outfits in addition after the last effect caliphate in syria and iraq move for a nice five tests might also decide that many are now is the new front. the documentary philippines is in the sights of bias it's on you tube channel

documentary and also find out more. now of 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 museum's bay told lawmakers that her priority was to deliver regs that european union leaders gave the u.k. a six month extension to bragg's it emergency tolls in brussels office. space x. has successfully launched its falcon heavy rocket into space and then the first time safely landed all three rocket boosters back on are also the first time a new mega rocket was launched for a paying customer delivering a satellite into space for a saudi based communication how. will stay in space an israeli mission to the moon failed when the lunar lander crashed into the moon
9:17 am
surface mission control said engine failure was to blame but israeli aerospace officials still hailed the mission as a breakthrough for low cost small scale spacecraft. 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 the prime minister benjamin netanyahu and project chiefs tried to stay positive about the outcome you win some you lose. if it first you don't succeed you try to get. this spacecraft was cold beer a sheet which translates. literally in the beginning it hitched a ride into space aboard space x.'s balcony one rocket in february this year the
9:18 am
mission 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 the smallest but the press spacecraft ever to get to the movie. so despite the disappointment there is reason to celebrate the project paves the way for future low cost lunar exploration. well for more on this mission we have with us from t.w. science good morning good morning so what went wrong on this mission it was a press landing it was really during the last seconds the last few seconds just before the touchdown there were only one hundred fifty meters apparently above the surface and then mission control lost communication for some reason. so we don't
9:19 am
really know what happened during those last meters but. they say that maybe the main engine had a problem will maybe see in five investigations but what is clear is that the better seat lenda wasn't very robust as it's privately funded it were it needed to be so there was no back up far communication systems of the solar panel to keep costs. so close hundred fifty meters from the surface and then it went wrong how big of a setback is this or is really space program so the big goal was to be the first nation on the moon this train obviously crashed right even though they were so sure to make it if you look at the twitter feed there was one person the tweeted if they will if they land on the moon successfully they will be the first nation. on the moon and they correct it not if but when so that shows it's not very scientific
9:20 am
a project's marva demonstration off we can and now they try to be optimistic and to still say it's a success because they came this close they did come really close and they've actually got their their lander on the moon but just not in one piece what exactly was the point of this mission. well it was more of a political mission than a scientific one there wasn't much of our big signs unbarred but it was packed with emotions and with symbols that they had the national anthem they had photos of israeli landscapes they had the tickler the curation of independence of israel so they really wanted to create this kind of pride in israel and also to promote signs among the new generation and that was still successful there were many kids wearing space suits very simply as a day to watch this this event so yeah this was successful this by the crash landing so they do have reason to be proud to thank you so much les live from v.w.
