missiles one reason. is for terrorism why. do we walk through the. u.s. national security adviser john bolton there we made those comments at a meeting in jerusalem with his counterparts from israel and russia iran is set to feature prominently on the agenda for the talks between those representatives today for more let's cross over live to our correspondent in jerusalem tanya kramer tanya what can we expect from these talks in jerusalem. well as you said it's kind of an unprecedented meeting between the 3 national security advisers from israel from russia and from the u.s. and prime minister netanyahu has said that he will do everything to prevent iran from obtaining nuclear weapons but also. from entrancing itself in neighboring
9:06 am
syria so we're expecting these talks mainly to. talk about the iranian influence in the region of course about the they to tensions as well between the u.s. and iran and of course about iran's role in syria of it's very much of concern to israel also for prime minister netanyahu just very important to get the message to the region that he is part of those talks that he's a partner for these talks among these 2 nations russia and the u.s. now israel sees iran as a threat the u.s. increasingly so as well but russia is somewhere else do you see any prospect in these talks of russia aligning itself with the positions of israel and the u.s. concerning iran. well
9:07 am
from a point of view from israel russia is a very important player especially when it comes to syria russia is close to iran but also close to the assad regime so the house been very close cooperation between russia and its well when it comes to carrying out strikes on behalf of from the israelis on military targets in syria there are there's coordination going on that but on the other hand it's also a very ambivalent role as you said so the question here in these talks is how far is russia prepared to go and what they will actually ask in return. when it comes to containing iran and its entrenchment in syria and this is really the most important question here also for the israelis tony thank you very much for that news correspondent tanya kramer in jerusalem. now to some of

9:10 am
specifically but you have to make sure you stay hydrated. and hot winds from the so harra a turning up temperatures across europe and france authorities are warning people about the intense heat. you put is all full of also fits what he felt should drink limit physical activity or even keep the body wet or to cover them while protect them from the sun with hats and sunglasses and long sleeve shirts yes. do not leave them in the car even for a very short time of which. it's important to remember this. the heat wave in france in 2003 years thought to have killed 15000 people this time the country is better prepared. other european countries are issuing warnings as well germany is expecting record breaking high on wednesday and children
9:11 am
once at risk. one of the party and it's also older people with preexisting health problems with their kidneys problems with hydration problems with their hearts when there's a heat wave and they don't drink enough they get even bigger problems the more they can also get dizzy and fall. and drink drink drink you can can can water internally or externally it's the bomb against europe's coming heat. too darn hot the mercury is rising in europe what are we to make of this weather well let's ask a weatherman meteorologist alexandra hilda from the joint weather service better dot com is with us thanks for joining us to spend he was wearing me now yesterday spanish meteorologist tweeted hell is coming hell on earth the cell isn't really
9:12 am
going to be as dramatic as the warning suggests yes i think it's going to be an unusual very very strong heat wave there temperatures for around the forty's coming our way that it will hit 1st east of spain than france and then it will also hit southern germany we will not go over 40 degrees in germany tomorrow most probably will stay under $39.00 but what's the difference between $39.40 it's going to be a brutal heat come. and that will go on and also the heat will also come through it and all the parties in parts of germany and it's only june and europe is already sizzling how unusual are of these temperatures in europe this time of year well more often july and august are the hottest months off the year so this is for end of june very unusual however heat from africa where this originated scannell can come to you up any time of the year you can come in february and cost temperatures
9:13 am
around $25.00 or $26.00 or something around that but not in the forty's so this might be record breaking and we are also considering that the all time record in germany will be hit by the middle of the week what do extreme temperatures like the tell us if anything about global warming do you see a trend here well this shows us what to grow we're warming has in store for us in the next decades that is really my opinion based on scientific knowledge of course because the climate models show with that the heats during the heat waves during the summer will get stronger as the climate gets warmer so 1st of all these kind of heat waves will be more often in the near future and summers like we had in 2003 that has also been men been mentioned on the program just a few minutes ago will be more often probably. every other year by the end of the
9:14 am
century so that development is dramatic if the global warming continues as it does at the moment and the june of this year is also a sign for the global warming you mention 2003 france reported some 15000 heat related deaths a year of these heat waves really can be deadly especially for the sick and the very young and and the old what precautions should people be taking well i think 1st of all it's important to go slow i mean that's for every day life the most important thing go slow. and try to avoid the hottest hours of the day was our own noon in the early afternoon however also sleeping is a problem at night it's difficult to get some rest because this heat wave will also call cos temperatures that between over 20 and 25 degrees in the mornings or not it will not go below those temperatures at nights so that is also a problem so it's important to keep the apartment cool ass cool as possible during the day as dark as possible to end the day so that one gets a good very good recipe and as our report also pointed out drink lots of water
9:15 am
that's the most important thing also have a look at the good nutrition and light nutrition that is very important and also. john to have the blood from that we're all just thank you for being with us you're welcome thank you here in germany a pilot was killed when 2 fighter jets collided yesterday in the northeast of the country the 2 unarmed euro fighter planes part of the german air force collided in midair during a training exercise over the state of mecklenburg western on the radio the 2nd pilot survived. a state of the art work plane tumbling from the sky. residents of the town of my shoe recorded the scenes. soon after plumes of smoke could be seen rising from the ground in a nearby lake district the wreckage of 2 you're a fighter combat jets was littered throughout the area after the planes collided in
9:16 am
crashed both pilots ejected from their aircraft one was found alive with his parachute in tangled in a tree he was rescued and brought to hospital. the other was later confirmed dead parts of his body were found close to the crash site of his aircraft. germany's defense minister flew in from berlin to offer condolences for the so-called mentor and said since these moments of hora and shock and speechlessness and of course they raise many many questions even. questions about the euro fighter nothing new jointly developed by european consortium the fighter has been in service with the german air force since 2003 the aircraft has been plagued by technical problems these and the military's chronic funding constraints have meant that only
9:17 am
a fraction of the fighters are combat ready the deadly crash will wreak night the simmering debate over germany's ailing armed forces. now to africa where the africa wildlife economy summit as checked off in zimbabwe the summit is focusing on how africa's landscape and its wildlife provide important opportunities for economic development one country that has already heavily invested in nature tourism is gab all in western africa a decade ago it set aside 10 percent of its lead for national parks but it's been struggling to keep its wildlife alive not that long ago its elephant numbers plummeted now though it's managed to turn this around we accompany rangers in low pay national park it's unfortunate. for any evil on the and his anti poaching team this is the easy part of the job not far from their station in low pay
9:18 am
national park they're gathering data on flora and fauna. known from. the family of elephants passed through here maybe 8 here or more truth. ok and then they moved here if i left their 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 slope is one 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
9:19 am
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 sols and southwest. where. it shows when dawn 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
9:20 am
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. is that with us 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. it is proving successful for the way in dong the fences in these communities have also come as a relief. if it was costing a lot of money it takes $46.00 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 strict teaching 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
9:21 am
the rangers he's confident that humans and wildlife can co-exist peacefully. simple as we do this so that our children can see what we are seeing today but today we only read about dinosaurs and books. we can just drive animals to extinction kill them without a 2nd thought. that would be a big problem. 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 winter olympics are set to return to the italian alps the international olympic committee yesterday voted in favor of the twin venues of milan 14 of them to host the games in the year 2026 italian bid defeated an offering by sweet 472348 number of other countries have pulled out of
9:22 am
running citing the huge cost of putting on an olympics italy's bid is considered frugal with an operating budget of around one and a half 1000000000 euro. so to soft penalties there helping the u.s. team gets through hardly the stuff of future champions for am i being too harsh or maybe a little bit too harsh but i agree with you i don't think this was a confident performance from the u.s. that said however this is the kind of game that champions do when they manage to get on top when they're not at their best but that also said i think there are a few concerns coming out of this match particularly a few question marks of the coaching of jill ellis she started alex morgan who is of course the world's best striker but she was 100 percent fit going into this game with an injury concern and told on the pitch and when you have a player like kali lloyd on the bench it doesn't really make sense to start your star struck and risk further injury as well as that lindsey had on she was also
9:23 am
left on the bench possibly one of the world's best midfielders so a few personal questions but also ellis was seeming lete reluctant to change the game to make a 1st sub until the 85th minute and that's a bit of a concern because against better teams that's not going to fly for the u.s. against spain of course as you said a soft penalty towards the end handed it to him and that doesn't bode well and. now they're coming up against the hosts france who are very strong outfit and that should be a cracking match in the quarterfinals and i think the u.s. is going to have to make a game if they're to get through the semi's and look to defend their crown so we've got a big challenge there for the u.s. up against france seems like it could be the best match up of the entire world cup what do you think yeah definitely i think this is easily the pick of the quarterfinals and i also think that whoever wins this match could potentially be the world cup winners at the end of the tournament france as the host went into this tournament as one of those teams that were looked at as
9:24 am
a challenger to the u.s. as world cup crown and they have proved that more than were the challenges to the crown both teams haven't really hit their straps throughout this tournament yet that makes for an unfolding contest in this upcoming game because both teams will not only be looking to win but they'll be looking to make a statement for the rest of the competition and we have to knock out matches yesterday who else went through the quarter finals yes we had sweden up against canada and we actually have some highlights to show you that match 1st of all sweden are very tidy tame very strong in defense but also have the attackers in the office too to make a difference in the highlights coming up we will see that slimy and. then he has combined fantastically to score the opener in the 55th minute and that proved to be the winner canada did in fact get a penalty for him bowl in the box just 10 minutes later but janine becky's was
9:25 am
brilliantly saved by had big lindahl and so deserved win for sweden i think they were the better team overall and now they face germany in the quarterfinals which should also be an interesting match the other thank you so much an expat from did not just for kicks. research from canada seems to indicate that play an instrument a musical instrument significantly increases students' scores in a wide range of subjects so if you've ever wondered why the music of you hans abbas in baja incorporates mathematical concepts or why i'm stein was such an accomplished piano player here's a clue. 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
9:26 am
ahead of their nonmusical peers when it came to testing and math science and english on average around 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 and 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 science says 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. you're watching t.w. news just reminder one of the top stories we're following for you today iran has
