5:01 pm
where struggle to cope with what they see as contentious refereeing and against it . i'm phil gal welcome to the program a german air force pilot has been killed after 2 of the country's fighter jets crashed over the northwest of the country. during a training exercise one part it was reported as having parachuted to safety after the planes went down in the north and german state of mecklenburg western pomerania german media are reporting that the 2nd part may have died but police have yet to confirm those. 2 corresponding to thomas spotter welcome thomas what else do we know. there are 3 points that have to be considered when we discuss these developing issues in the northern eastern part of germany 1st what happened
5:02 pm
to the 2 pilots you mentioned already that one of them might survive by parachuting himself to safety but now there are reports saying that they have found that authorities have found body parts near the site of the crash it is still unclear whether that belongs to the 2nd pilot that's the 1st issue the 2nd issue whether paid people might have been injured on the ground we're talking here of a possibly populated region in the northern eastern part of germany but still there are risks and obviously authorities are investigating whether people on the ground may have also been affected and the 3rd issue probably the important to the most important one politically is what the reasons might have been for that coalition that is over something that will take some time for authorities to investigate and to clear and the most the speculation about a possible cause is this criticism of the german ministry over recent years for the chronic shortages of equipment and personnel presumably that is likely to have a bearing on today's incident that is absolutely clear that in the last few years
5:03 pm
the german military has been criticized for technical failure for its readiness for its capability that has been a story that we've heard many many times and although we still don't know the reasons for this particular collision if indeed there are some technical faults revealed that would certainly also add to those to that criticism of germany's military capability but again it is still too early to say fail because the 1st and foremost what authorities are trying to find out now is that as i said what happened to the 2 pilots whether the people were injured only after they know more about all this they will be able to actually go to the political impact of all this and what the reasons behind this collision might have been thomas perfectly. the opposition in turkey has been celebrating its way and the election for the man of istanbul it's a big defeat for president obama who used to be out of the city himself of the vote
5:04 pm
was a rerun the opposition candidate won by a wider margin than in the original vote back in march observers say it's a triumph for democracy and could usher in change across the country. the undisputed victor of istanbul's maryla lection is this man. he extended his majority in sunday's controversial rerun of a ballot he'd already narrowly won in march the new man called it a vote for change what is the very this is not a victory this is a new beginning you know what i like to say from here that as of tomorrow i will treat 16000000 people equally as i'm a. german. president red chip type out of one's a k party called the 1st result irregular on the electoral board agreed this time around the ones man banal a yearly him conceded defeat. according to the results
5:05 pm
as of now my competitors are a crime in my milou is leading the race i congratulate him and wish him good luck. for her. tens of thousands turned out to celebrate. to be done with you i'm so excited about it the right person has one justice's one love and unity one the people in istanbul have won everything is great now we will work for a bright future together shoulder to shoulder but really i am so happy. that i'm actually going to get the moment get ignored in order to get it's enough the people have spoken and their will has become clear justice has been served about it in the world. but the a.k. part. the faithful were shocked and disappointed. has a mind you know it has and i think people do not see the good things ty of edward has done we are all sad our relatives came here from other cities just for today
5:06 pm
and now we are so sad disappointed in. the end of the i k p a few serves as ma'am the result is a further blow to president out of one who has been accused of terrorism and is struggling to revive a flagging economy he also lost municipal elections in ankara and izmir in march but istanbul is the jewel in his crown out of one's home town and where his career started as man now the city and its new leader are going their own way. political correspondent kate brady has been discussing things changes for the foreign policy spokesman of the german conservative party you're going hot. so mr hyde what does this election result in a stumble mean for president advani is this the beginning of the end. i think there will be a tough debate in the european the government a party of i do wonder about the question who is responsible for that pay to the
5:07 pm
miscalculation on the decision to cancel the 1st election round in istanbul i think news to malaysian for democracy and civil society. is the outcome of that election in quantity and in quality and this will change the situation the political situation in turkey all over. so the result is being widely welcomed and seen as a step in the direction of returning to more democracy in techie how does that square with the trial that's due to begin today against those demonstrators from 2013 the 2nd round of the elections in istanbul was not only a decision between a candidate from the government party and a candidate from the opposite it was also a test on how strong a civil society and democratic and civil rights and how strong is the autocratic government system of everyone therefore i am i'm sure that there will be an impact
5:08 pm
and influence on that what this ongoing now in turkey there will be a discussion on civil rights and on the independence of justice and rule of law. not only in istanbul about all over the country and a.k.p. petition should be aware of that that they should stink about how to handle the situation without being thrown away by history what does this result mean turkey's image on the international stage particularly from the point of germany. a lot of people in the european union are a skeptic or concern the question does turkey fit to europe or not. i think the people in mr moore gave us a excellent example of their point civil society and democrat democracy is and. i appreciate that this mind and mood of democracy might be also
5:09 pm
in every other country of the european union thank you very much and some of the other stories making news around the world u.s. secretary of state mike pompei was in saudi arabia seeking to form an international coalition against iran is due to meet with officials in the persian gulf asia and europe this comes after the u.s. threatened iran with a military strike in retaliation for the downing of an american drone. at least 14 people were killed and dozens more injured when a tent collapsed during a religious ceremony in western india heavy rain and wind course a huge tent to talk with hundreds of hindu worshippers inside a minister narendra modi has offered his condolences. rescues in cambodia have pulled 2 people alive from the ruins of a building that collapsed on saturday the official described them as being in serious condition at least 28 people died in the incident which happened on a construction site and also houses the workers. a belgian police say they have
5:10 pm
arrested a man for allegedly plotting a terror attack on the u.s. embassy in brussels prosecutors say the man was taken into custody on saturday they said they had converging indications leading them to believe the man was planning an attack with or see say the suspect has denied the allegations. and the european union's highest court has ruled that poland broke a u. law by carrying out a judicial overhaul last year that forced a 3rd of its judges into early retirements the european court of justice said the reforms which lowered the retirement age from 7 to 65 breached the principles of judicial independence the measures triggered mass protests throughout the country last summer and the polish government was forced to allow the judges who had retired to return to work after an interim b.c. to a group of today the court delivered its formal verdict. let's get more from d.w. correspondent bob available in brussels welcome barbara that this decision seems to
5:11 pm
be about more than just the retirement age of poland's judges. yeah because the full of course legally it's quite straightforward there is supposed to be no info interference from outside particularly not political interference was the independence and the tenure of job just and this is what this is all about the president would have had advertorial powers to prolong some judges and let them work till 71 and sent others who didn't he whom you didn't like just the home and that is not possible so judges have cannot simply be removed from from their job and they just have to act and judiciary. independently however of course this is about more because changing the laws with regard to the independent judiciary is a keystone in establishing a liberal regime in a country we have seen that in hungary we have seen attempts to do that in romania
5:12 pm
and of course we have now seen that for a while in poland and this is what this whole battle is about so it's much more than these judges not just being sent home and a whole generation of them to be not to judge just any more but it is really about the future of poland and the future of the european union in a sense so how is supposed government likely to react. what if government in this case has sort of retreated they have already scrapped this law in the last winter and they are not reacting as violently variability as they have done before and saying that this is meddling and into our internal affairs and so on it's a forest but of course they are angry about this whole war of attrition that the e.u. is waging against the government governing part in the polish capital because they felt they they have the right to do as they like and they can't do that because
5:13 pm
european rules prevent them from doing so and so this is really what this is about this political war of attrition it is a larger battle that is being fought here and both sides are sort of always waiting for the other side to do the next step and you alluded to this in your 1st round so this is part of a wider bottle of the e.u. seems to be fighting with its eastern members to get them to respect the rule of law. absolutely and the e.u. has in early years really closed their eyes they have head the changes in hungary for instance they've watched viktor orban just doing this they he has really sort of. changed the country to a liberal democracy as he calls it in his own words and nobody in brussels did wake up to this they didn't do anything and then they saw poland going the same way and they said this has to stop we have to stop this this can't go on and and now there is this battle ongoing between the 2 sides and the e.u.
5:14 pm
is not totally without weapons of course it can drag every case into the european court of justice bot for instance there is a debate about cutting funding to eastern european member states to act against the rule of law and now that would be a much more incisive sort of measure and the next you commissioner will have to decide about that and looking back at romania for instance the governing party there had a suffered heavy defeat during the european elections because the public rose up against those changes to the judiciary system so this whole war it's not without hope for the european side but it is long and there are no easy winds or reversal in brussels thank you. now 8000 people turned out for ukraine's biggest ever l.g.b. event on sunday i have a police presence that prevented any of the pain to violence against martyrs that the gay pride that has seen in the past.
5:15 pm
rainbows as far as the eye can see so far so familiar but this is no ordinary pride parade security is tight and police often seemingly outnumber the participants here of pride has come a long way since it began with a few dozen participants back in 2013 and it's attracting new and diverse groups of people who are looking. laurie to ukraine glory to the heroes the crowd that is the official gritty of ukraine's armed forces and not something you expected to hear at kiev's pride parade until now that is their yard is called i'm a soldier and i'm gay i was a volunteer in the dumb ass battalion i thought from 2014 to 2016 we're fighting on the front for the freedom of ukraine. and the freedom of every citizen in a free country life should you knew. his isn't
5:16 pm
a unique story hundreds of thousands of ukrainians from all of life have volunteered to fight since the conflict began in 2014 making the cranes armed forces more diverse than ever before but most choose to keep quiet about their sexuality until they leave the ranks. yard huge it has been an active service since russia attacked us. if we don't stand up for ourselves we will be no freedom with no equality and not just for people freedom has to be defended shot we will defend our children from paedophiles opposed to read this but what do you do with a poster go do something useful go fight. here pride is still more demonstration and party a place for chance in posters and. for celebration yet. you're watching the news live from berlin still to come on to get ahead in life well how to play a musical instrument a study from canada shows that if a student scores significantly in

a wide range of subjects we'll find out why. children are living in poverty according to the u.n. children's agency unicef the report goes on to say that heart of 17 year olds go into adult hood with little or no education part of the problem is access to schooling in areas without public transport and west schools are rare a new initiative is addressing just the problem. biking to beat the school bell. not long ago these kids had to walk to classes for some a journey of up to 2 hours now with pedal power it takes only minutes. an initiative called let's walk to the recycle bikes. students who live more than 2 kilometers from school are 1st in line to get a life changing ride. entrepreneur tan tune when set up less

walk to give kids easier access to education. these bikes can help students get to school in just 15 minutes rather than one hour by food they won't miss class and they'll be better focused on their education so hopefully won't drop out. of. the tech investor foundered less walk after a string of bike sharing companies pulled out of singapore malaysia they live thousands of parcels behind so 10 started shipping them to me and my. and now local kids like this are reaping the benefits. that i have more time to study and play with friends i know i'm i won't need to get up so early and walk for 2 hours. i don't know that i'm like. see i never have a bike i won't be so tired from all the walking to me and my. if all goes
5:19 pm
to plan less work hopes to hand out $100000.00 bikes over the next 5 years giving a rolling start to these kids' future. a research from canada seems to indicate that playing an instrument significantly increases student scholes in a wide range of subjects so if you've ever wondered why the music of jazz bach incorporates mathematical concepts or why albert einstein was such an accomplished piano player perhaps now we know. the canadian study says playing a musical instrument especially in a group can dramatically improve academic performance in other ways after crunching 2 decades of data from over 100000 school students in british columbia the researchers showed that kids who took part in at least one music course were far ahead of their nonmusical peers when it came to testing and math science and english on average around
5:20 pm
a full academic year and demographic factors like gender ethnicity or socioeconomic background didn't play a role in whether or not the surge in performance occurred the researchers believe the benefits came from a variety of factors playing in an orchestra a band or ensemble encourages the development of skills like hand eye coordination listening and teamwork those in turn apparently have a major effect on cognition and where the kids were more dedicated the effects were stronger in an era where resources for the arts are often cut in schools to promote more activities in math and the sciences the study indicates it's high time for a rethink the best investment in those subjects could well be an investment in a good musical education. africa wildlife economy service has begun in zimbabwe focusing on ways in which the continent's landscape and wildlife present economic present opportunities for economic development one country that invested

in nature tourism is a decade ago it set aside 10 percent of its land for national parks elephants which were which were very under threat now it's managed to turn that around. and you know. for the and his anti-poaching team this is the easy part of the job not far from their station in low pay national park they're gathering data on flora and fauna. a family of elephants passed through here and ate here. and then they moved here if i left there traces. the team normally spends up to 14 days in the national park to collect data and keep an eye out for poachers thanks to the rangers the nature reserve has experienced no major wildlife crime in the last 2 years. but they say poachers are still active in the national parks close to the border with the republic of congo with

a mixture of dense forest and grassland low pay is $1.00 of 13 national parks established in cabo in 2002 it's a you know asco world heritage site and home to elephants panthers gorillas buffalo and over 400 bird species these days the elephants pose more of a problem than the poachers do and important part of the work of the park manager and his team is communicating with the residents of the villages on the edges of the national park. initially there were lots of elephants in the northern zone. but then they started encroaching on built up areas. we realized that the elephants were more or less fleeing the interior of the forest because of growing pressure from poachers from the south and southwest.
5:23 pm
shows when dong constantly gets calls about elephants entering the villages for the park management dealing with the concerns of the local people is a major priority the elephants destroyed their fields and plantations the basis of their livelihoods. thanks to fences that the park officials have set up around the villages the elephants are slowly retreating back into the forest. in 3 of the villages electric fences protect the plantations. these fences are inspected on a regular basis and the locals say they're feeling much safer again. with us and we've been going hungry for 2 years people were losing weight there wasn't enough to eat but this year we have enough again we have vegetables we've been able to harvest what we planted to get. the cooperation between the park management and local residents. is proving successful for the way in dong the fences in these communities have also come as a relief. to people it was costing
5:24 pm
a lot of money it takes 46 people to chase away 3 elephants elephants not a dog it's not a sheep that you can push away with elephants you have to be very strategic and vigilant. the balancing act between protecting the park and helping local sustain their livelihoods calls for careful planning and grew up here like many of the rangers is confident that humans and wildlife can co-exist peacefully. simple moves we do this so that our children can see what we are seeing today today we only read about dinosaurs and books. like that we can't just drive animals to extinction kill them without a 2nd thought that would be a big problem c. difficile. tomorrow we'll be back at work in low pay national park and the rangers and villagers will continue to maintain the fences that can help to ensure their future. the women's world cup
