front of the assembled press president trump signed an executive order imposing new sanctions against iran the order is meant to limit access to financial resources for iran's supreme leader ayatollah khomeini and his associates we will continue to increase pressure on terror. until the regime abandons its dangerous activities in his. clothing the pursuit of nuclear weapons increased enrichment of uranium development the ballistic missiles engagement and support for terrorism fueling of foreign conflicts. directed against the united states. the reason given for the additional sanctions a u.s. drone shot down by iran and iran says the rationale was fabricated the u.s. government also accuses iranian revolutionary guards of attacking merchant ships in the strait of hormuz according to the u.s. more than 80 percent of the iranian economy is already affected by sanctions the

trumpet ministration wants to force the leadership in tehran to agree to a new nuclear agreement with tougher conditions trump also reiterated and often you negotiations he claims iran could become a peaceful and prosperous country if it were to abandon its pursuit of nuclear weapons. the standoff between the united states and iran was addressed at the u.n. security council ause night and the council called for maximum restraint all the u.s. urged to rent to negotiate with washington germany's ambassador warned of the risk of tensions escalating further friends germany and the united kingdom are gravely concerned by the increased tensions in the gulf that further heightened have to the downing of a u.s. drone by iran on the 20th of june these developments risk miscalculation and conflict we call for deescalation and dialogue with respect for international routes. well iran's u.n. ambassador said the atmosphere was not right for dialogue to happen between tehran

and washington you cannot start a dialogue with somebody who is threatening you who is intimidating you today do you just witness that the united states employs another set of sanctions against iran how to dialogue is somebody who's trying maybe preoccupation. is to put more sanctions on iran so all of that the atmosphere of such a dire does is not to drag u.s. national security adviser meanwhile john bolton we're talking about here say you said washington was willing to enter into talks with iran as i indicated on sunday mr prime minister president trump yesterday imposed significant new sanctions on iran's supreme leader and other top leadership individuals and entities at the same time the president has held the door open to real negotiations to completely and verifiably eliminated iran's nuclear weapons program its pursuit of ballistic

missile delivery systems its support for international terrorism and its other malign behavior worldwide. all that iran needs to do is to walk through that open door u.s. national security adviser john bolton there will be 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 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 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 big 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

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 there has 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 this coordination going on that but on the other hand it's also 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. and entrancement in syria and this is really the most important question here also for the israelis tanya thank you very much for that

correspondent tanya kramer in jerusalem. now to some of the other stories making news around the world today at least one person is dead and dozens more injured after a series of explosions tore through munitions depo in southern kazakhstan officials have evacuated the nearby town of ariz in the country's turkistan region. defense ministry says a fire triggered the blasts. mexico's army chief says some 15000 troops have been deployed to the country's northern border to detain migrants trying to cross illegally into the us mexico is under pressure from the white house to choke off the flow of migrants travelling north earlier this month the country promised to reinforce its southern border with thousands of troops. first crew to blast off to the international space station following a launch accident last year have returned safely to earn a failed launch in october ahead raised doubts over moscow's space program russia

is currently the only country to oversee manned launches to the i ask. governments here in europe are warning their citizens to take precautions as a record heat wave starts moving across the continent temperatures are forecast to exceed 40 degrees in several countries including germany france and spain. which. we're. seeing. you see. this is. how i think that weather is much higher than what i expect because sam and philippine you have them weather maybe nicer than this is too hot for me. it's really unpleasant but we're used to it unlike other people so we are not preparing

specifically but you have to make sure you stay hydrated. hot winds from the sahara a turning up temperatures across europe and france authorities are warning people about the intense heat. also said. should drink limit physical activity or even keep the body wet or to cover them while protect them from the sun with hats on 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 the only ones at risk. and given parts 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. to drink drink drink you can think. internally or externally it's the bomb against europe's coming heat. to go on hot the mercury is rising in europe what are we to make of those weather well let's ask a weatherman meteorologist alexander hilda from the joint weather service better dot com is with us thanks for joining us this morning he was buying me now yesterday spanish meteorologist tweeted hell is coming hell on earth itself isn't

really 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 are 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 he could also come true 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 of the year so this is for end of june very unusual however heat from africa where this originated scandal can come to europe any time of the year you can come in february and cost temperatures around $25.00 or $26.00 or something around that but not in the forty's so this might be

a 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 global 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 warm are 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 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 emission 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 which are on noon and 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 cost 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 ask you as possible during the day s. dark as possible to end the day so that one gets a good very good recipe right and as our report also pointed out drink lots of

water that's the most important thing also yes a look at good nutrition a lightner tradition that is very important and also. from the meteorologist thank you for being with us you're welcome thank you. here in germany a pilot was killed when 2 fighter jets crashed yesterday in the northeast of the country the 2 euro fighter planes part of the german air force collided in midair during a training exercise of the state of mecklenburg western pomerania the 2nd pilot survived. the plane tumbling from the sky residents of the town of recorded these scenes. soon after plumes of smoke was seen rising from the ground in a nearby lake district. the wreckage of the 2 you're a fighter jets was littered throughout the area but there were no casualties on the ground most pilots ejected from the aircraft one was found alive

with his parachute in tangled in a tree. he was rescued and taken to a hospital. the other was later confirmed dead. officials say a 3rd pilot witnessed the crash from the end. germany's defense minister flew in from berlin to offer her condolences for the simple name to this and said since these moments of hora and shock and speechlessness and of course they raised many many questions including. the german armed forces have down taken over the investigation to deliver on says to those questions jointly developed by a european consortium the euro find a has been in service with the german air force since 2003 the aircraft has been plagued by technical problems these unfunny constraints have meant that only

a fraction of the 5 has already for action. now to africa where the africa wildlife economy summit has kicked off in zimbabwe the summit is focusing on how africa's landscape and wildlife offer important opportunities for economic development one country that has already heavily invested in nature tourism is gatvol on central africa as western coast a decade ago subside 10 percent of its land 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 that around to find out why we accompany rangers in low pay national park it's unfortunate. 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.

then from uniform. the family of elephants passed through here and ate here almost. ok and then they moved here and 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

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 ansel's west. shows when dong constantly gets calls about the 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 local 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. is proving successful for the way in dong the fences in these communities have also come as a relief to. people 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 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 he's confident that humans and wildlife can co-exist peacefully. and most 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. well i guess some sports for you and starting with the women's world cup in france were all except to the round of 16 matches have been completed joining me here in studio to talk it through is a young expat from v.w. sports. so the usa the defending champions and favorites in this tournament they've breezed through the group stages now they've had their 1st knockout match was it

tougher than their 1st 3 matches yeah it was a lot tougher i mean we saw the u.s. thrash thailand 30 know and then they also a big chile 3 nil and sweden 2 nil and so everyone was rightfully saying like these are the favorites for the world cup is that the future of champions once again they do have the strongest attack in this tournament against spain they came up against a different base the spaniards are much more technically tactic technically adept and tactically aware and they all support of degree physicality the game that the u.s. were quite surprised by and so it was a very tight game one with few clear cut chances but let's take a look at the highlights and say help end up. the usa we cheated on in homs by the legion of fans and it wasn't long before they had something to celebrate in the 5th minute tobin heath charged into the box and was felled by might be lay on the penalty was given and meghan rypien lashed it home. everything was going as expected that spain hadn't read the script went back celebrant was caught

in possession jenny out of mosul fight a crack into the top corner. a breathtaking strike from spain's key player. they kept the u.s. it by for the next hour but then disaster struck the referee awarded another penalty when been he nieto to see a court rise lavelle contact seemed minimal but even after a v.a.r. check she stuck by her decision or peano grabbed the gift with both hands. hard luck for spain but the usa march on to set up a quarterfinal with hosts france. so too soft penalties there helping the u.s. through hardly the stuff a few future champions i would say or am i being too harsh no i think you pretty spot on that this was not a call for the formats that we expect from the us the and the champions. but as as we say from champions i still can win games when they're not of their best and that's what we saw there are concerns from this match mainly revolving around the

coach joe ellis she made some bizarre person no choices she left alex morgan in the starting line up even though she was 100 percent fit she could have replaced it with kali void another woke last record but she didn't and she also left one of the best midfielders in the world lindsey around on the bench true and she refused to make changes even though the u.s. weren't playing great she didn't make a 1st off until the 85th minute and then as you said they needed 2 penalties to get past spain and the 2nd one was quite soft as well this one was definitely a penalty for sure and it was put away very expertly but i just think if the u.s. through this against the upcoming phone with france who one of the favorites as well and the host they'll get on and they need to up their game if they get a win this one definitely suspense left there and we had to knock out matches yesterday who else is going through yes we had sweden against canada in the other round 60 match last night and we have some highlights to show you of that game as

well sweden are tarty team very strong defensively but they also have. an attack as we can see here. a slimy and stain a black and steals wanting for the 1st go and that proved to be the winner as well sweden would win one canada did have a penalty as we can see the wood for the ham bowl but unfortunately johnny becky's spock was saved fantastically by had they been and so it's we've been through and now they face germany in the whole finals a big test for them but that should be a very interesting match up as well be interesting to see how germany deal with sweden's defensive stability just to round of 16 matches still to play who is on tonight yes we have italy who are the surprise package of this world cup i believe they top their group and they face china who would form a powerhouse a few decades ago and then we have the netherlands were looking very strong in this tournament and i can see them going through to the final if they can get everything

together and if i see japan so 2 interesting match ups should be cracking football tonight for you on what excitement young expect from the sports thanks so much is staying with football hero i have top group c. in the men's copa america defeating chile one nil both sides created opportunities in the contest but it took until the 82nd minute to break through. edin son. scored the winner with an expert li placed header both teams though progressed to the quarterfinals your opponent will face a rude while chile play. just reminder of the top stories we're following for you here today on the w. news has condemned the u.s. over its decision to impose sanctions on the supreme leader ayatollah ali khamenei and other top officials. you're watching news still to come and b.w.
