round of 16 in the last match but powerful japanese team pushes the netherlands to their limits as the judge who will play in the quarterfinals we'll hear from our world cup record. hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us europe has been hit by an unprecedented heat wave temperatures are forecast to reach their highest level ever recorded in some countries today the extreme weather is expected to continue to the weekend governments have issued health warnings and are urging people to do everything they can to stay cool. cutting keeping cool in most every way possible. people and animals across

continental europe but feeling the heat of unusually high temperature is. just drinking try to go too far so slowly. drink drink drink a lot. of what this hot sun we try and keep to the cooler places above. the doors at all we have been out looking at rome from 8 o'clock this morning but from midday on we're eating ice cream it's very good we were able. meteorologists say the soaring temperatures a jew to hot air blowing in from north africa but many also call this heat wave unprecedented. in france or thirty's are taking extra precautions to care for the most vulnerable. the then the country is still scarred by the intense heat wave of 2003 in which almost

15000 people died. in the midst of the 3 this isn't scaremongering these heatwaves are going to keep happening as we know and perhaps they'll get worse in the years and decades to come because of climate change. asking everyone to take responsibility for themselves their family and their neighbors and to avoid a backlog in emergency rooms due to people taking unnecessary risks and the the history of. the haze was visible over paris on tuesday and pollution levels could rise further as the mercury crimes. in germany or thirty's in the state of brandenburg battling wildfires the area is a tinder box after prolonged hot and dry weather. amid warnings across europe that mid week 10. beaches could break records staying cool

remains tom. well for more on how to cope with the heat wave we're joined by professor hans question going up from the center for space medicine and extreme environments at the charlie to university hospital here in berlin thanks for being with this is morning professor and we're expecting temperatures of 40 degrees and more in some parts of europe that could be really uncomfortable but is it dangerous actually it's for healthy people it's really uncomfortable but expression only for people right certain diseases like cholera resco diseases or c o p d a chronic obstructive lung diseases they are really in danger of being hurt by this heat wave and for normal people you know as you say if you're healthy you don't want to hold it at all the problem of the 40 degrees or even temperature there are also fall for healthy people so all people have to be conscious of all this is heat wave and

they have to drink enough they have that's my suggestion that they should weight each other in the morning and in the afternoon so that is see how much fluid they have lost probably so it's the only way really to calculate whether you you have really dry rank enough during the day because otherwise it's you don't know really how much you are sweating on of these hot conditions as you can tip so weigh yourself in the morning in the evening even and then the difference that's that's not facts just really hard to sort of keep your body fluid up how else can we keep our body temperature regulated under these extreme conditions that's affected the point we we can only use on aziz heat conditions the evaporation the erupt ration of sweating from the skin because the usual saying what we do is really increase our. block confusion in the sky. him but this is not enough under this condition so

the schlepping is the main way to get rid of the heat because when you are sweating the sweat is evaporated and during this process being coming from really put to a gas it takes away heat from the body and that's why you have to keep expression lee your fruit. on the very close arms so hydrate hydrate hydrate drink lots of water a lot too much but not too much that's why as well because it's very difficult for people to calculate have i done right and off they should wait and then they see whether that's enough on ok scientists are telling us that the earth is warming up and that these extreme heat in the vents these these heat waves could become more common do you think the human organism is capable of adapting. that depends on the reason actually for the moment in the sub-saharan area for example the temperature for months too high to really to work of that's why people

are migrating at that region and if the this heat is more expanded to other regions of the people who migrate there when you look in germany in the coastal areas they have 26 ok the issue fine but when you are going down to 2 of 5 oclock those german cities or private it's extremely that's at the at the edge for them 10 just a final question any other you mention people who have a particular diseases or some sort of health complications already they are particularly at risk anyone else who should be the only especially in search of them children and children please do not leave them in the car when you are just going outside and just for having a short look at the store also it sometimes is only need 15 minutes or half an hour that extremely hot conditions inside so children and elderly people they are most.

vulnerable and fun good advice professor from berlin's shirley tay hospital thank you very much for being with us this morning thank you. now president trump's son in law jared cushion or has appealed to palestinians to support a plan he says will revive the economy and improve their lives the proposals presented at a meeting in bahrain involve investing billions of dollars in the palestinian territories they're part of a peace plan which has been dubbed the deal of the century but the palestinians have already rejected the plans as they do not include a political solution political resolution to the conflict. these were the scenes across gaza and the west bank as the bahrain conference got underway thousands of palestinians protested and staged a general strike against a plan they say attempts to buy them off. thousands of miles

away in bahrain jerrod cushion or called on the palestinians to accept his vision one he dubbed the opportunity of the century if they want peace he said the $50000000000.00 economic support plan would create a brighter future for the region. for a moment imagine a new reality in the middle east imagine a bustling commercial and tourist center and gaza and the west bank where international businesses come together and thrive imagine the west bank as a blossoming economy full of entrepreneurs engineers scientists and business leaders the palestinian people but in the audience was no palestinian delegation they'd boycotted the meeting having rejected the plan from the start instead there were arab finance ministers and international business leaders the people the united states is soliciting to foot the bill kushner says his proposal could create a 1000000 new jobs and slash unemployment helping to bring peace to the middle east

. but the palestinians insist there can be no economic solution without a political one. we are here also to send a message that we will not be deceived by the so called economy plan that it can be annoying going to mix solution as a substitute god freedom and 2nd how can we have economic development when we cannot control our borders our import our export our free market our freedom of movement washington says the political portion of the plan will follow but until then palestinians say cush news proposal is meaningless here in the west bank palestinians burned an empty casket it reads deal of the century born dead. d.w. correspondent all over sell it is covering developments from washington d.c. he has more details on christmas proposals and palestinian objections jared

kirshner's plans come as a radical change for the middle east peace process no 2 state solution but instead lots of money essential silencing the palestinians for a prospect of wealth and development the plan sounds reasonable $50000000000.00 in direct investments a 1000000 new jobs within the next 10 years for an area that is suffering from unemployment rates of above 50 percent but there are questions to be answered as well number one who is going to pay for all that and without their own state palestinians feel as 2nd class citizens so for them the proposal comes as a no starter from the very beginning. to be a seller sell it there in washington let's take a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world former u.s. special counsel robert mueller has agreed to testify to public hearings in congress next month while or lead the investigation into russian election meddling and

detailed numerous occasions when u.s. resident all tromped may have obstructed justice well it's previously declined to face public questioning what is reported we know russian in yemen there's been heavy fighting between pro-government forces and who the rebels in the southwestern city of tire as officials say at least 16 rebels died in the violence villages and residential neighborhoods in the area have been badly damaged the united nations has called yemen's 5 year civil war the world's worst humanitarian crisis. brazil's supreme court has rejected a request to temporarily free former president luisa nutsy alluded to silva lula was hoping to be released from prison while the court debates his upcoming appeal kates case the argues his 27000 conviction should be quashed after allegations the judge in a case colluded with prosecutors. united

nations office on drugs and crime has just released its $2900.00 world drug report the annual study analyzes trends in drug use and abuse looking at supply and demand for opiates cocaine cannabis and found a means and new psychoactive substances the biggest take away from the report is the global scale of the problem some 35000000 people around the world suffer from substance abuse that's 4 and a half 1000000 more than predicted. well the u.n. experts say much of that rise was due to spikes in india and nigeria both carried out new surveys providing more accurate information on drug dependency in those countries well the report also showed that the global manufacture of cocaine has reached an all time high much for coming from south america it's up around 25

percent authorities seized more of the drug than ever before meanwhile north america's opioid crisis shows no sign of improving record numbers of overdose deaths from drugs like fentanyl were reported in both the united states and canada the world drug report also revealed that cannabis is still the most widely used illicit drug worldwide in 2016 around 188000000 people reported having used it in some form that number is expected to rise and keep rising as it loses its illicit status with increasing states and countries legalizing the drug. use science correspondent there equal humans is with us here to talk us through the report morning derek so the u.n. says there's been a 15 percent jump in people who need treatment for drug abuse that's nearly 5000000

more addicts what's behind the surge well a lot of this is just a question of bookkeeping to a certain extent statistically you would expect the numbers to go to go up because of course the world's population is growing so the number of people who are going to be addicted to drugs is going to be growing. in lockstep with that to a certain extent but some of it is simply bookkeeping and india nigeria in particular which you mentioned just in the run up to this talk there's there's just been better bookkeeping methods have been initiated so the whole drugs trade is by its very definition a grey zone it's very difficult to get information. cartels and addicts are not going to provide information on how much they've imported or how much they've sold but but there are ways to get the better data and that's what's happened in the a nigerian particular which has caused this of a sudden spike there's another number that jumps out of this report a 56 percent 56 percent surge in opioid use is that a problem with opioid use is it limited mainly to wealthy countries the so-called

global north or is it a problem in developing countries to emerge and when you're talking about opioids there are several different compounds that you're talking about some of them are naturally occurring compounds for example in compounds that are isolated from the poppy plant that are used to make opium and heroin and interestingly in this report numbers of the amount of heroin has actually drops due to a drought in afghanistan which is the primary producer of of those compounds synthetic opioids on the other hand substances like fence in which we've anybody who works in the media has been hearing about this opioid crisis in america for for years and years they've gone they've shot through the roof they're more than $50000.00 deaths due to overdose and 2017 in north america alone but what we're hearing less about prescription and much of the prescription originally these are also medications and but but what we're hearing but we've heard less about almost nothing about actually is and is this impending crisis in africa with

a substance called tramadol now trying to do i'm just going to give you a couple of numbers here less than 10 kilograms of this of this synthetic opioid were seized in 201125 tons of it were seized in 2017 it makes you wonder how much of it actually got through almost 5 percent of nigeria's population said they took it for non-medical purposes last year so this is this is not a crisis that's impending this is a crisis that's actually already going on in africa pretty much an epidemic the way it's. very serious indeed derek thank you very much for filling us in science correspondent derrick williams. recent killing of jordan politician. a suspect of right wing extremists has raised concerns about threats to other public figures here we visited the southwestern telling of hall where a local politician. was a has been facing right wing threats for years. viviana vission moser never knows

what she'll find in her mailbox often enough letters or flyers from the far right scene are waiting for her she says her neighbors don't get them she found these 2 weeks ago. and. it's 1st i wasn't sure if they were to be on the safe side i took them out to the tissue i had never come into contact with gun paraphernalia before is some kind of anonymous message meant for me it was in my mailbox that's definitely a reason to go to the police. as a local politician in the southern german city of horrible vision those who works for refugees and against the far right. this has made her the target of hostilities both on the internet and on the streets of horror. i often didn't i'll never forget this a man said he hoped i would be raped by someone with

a refugee background so that it would also come to my senses. she says the attitude toward politicians has grown more aggressive and it started before the recent killing of german politicians at the beginning of. the survey by german t.v. station a r d shows that more than 40 percent of german mayors say they have been threatened with violence online or received hate mail and some believe these kinds of threats should be taken more seriously. when i politica michael politicians and those who working for gemini's best interests should be well protected. so we're calling for a federal office that people here are affected contente. some politicians have stepped down out of fear but that's not an option for councillor viviana vission

most of us i'm going to let anyone scare me because i don't want to be scared. despite the bullets in her mailbox and threats on the internet version moser won't back down. now to the women's world cup in france where the round of 16 matches is over in the quarter finals are set you have expected from v.w. sport is with me to talk us through the action tell us about that last match in the round of 16 it was a real heavyweight battle anderson yeah it certainly was this was netherlands the current european champions up against japan who won the world cup 8 years ago and were losing follows 4 years ago so as i said a real heavy like clash both teams really going for training blow blows both teams had periods of domination and for made this was the game of the tournament so far it was super exciting great great spectacle to watch but let's have

a look at how it all penned up. the netherlands launched themselves into the lead early in the 1st half thanks to the c'mon students who picked out the bottom corner with a crafty back heel after that though it was japan's game. on the stroke of half time you has a guy was crowned this foreign policy move the finish deserved to draw things level . a 2nd for japan seemed inevitable in the 2nd half i mean tested to keep it from distance. and later on he went close netherlands war on the rocks saved here only by the woodwork. a stroke of luck for the dutch penalty right that the day after vivian meet him up lost in the shot at sac ecomog eyes are there was no mistake for martin in the 90th minute and orange elation in.

brutal misfortune for japan that tournament is our. brutal misfortune for japan it's a good way of putting it they were they were finalists 4 years ago yannick should their campaign be considered a failure i don't think so yes though finals 4 years ago but this is definitely a team that's in transition very heartbreaking for the players of course but it is the youngest team at this world cup and they are no longer a world force and so from a they actually surprise against the netherlands i watched them last week against england in nice and their attack was very fractured they couldn't break through the laws there were getting pushed off the ball quite easily but in this match since lighting the easily the best kind of tame the netherlands apart and had numerous chances to take the lead but just couldn't quite get that finishing touch but for me it's a good omen for japan they have a young teen they won the ana 20 world cup last state last year sorry and i think

they'll be back bigger and better in for used on so we performed well but it just didn't go their way what about the other match night china and italy yes this was a match between an old powerhouse china against what looks like could be an emerging powerhouse in italy now italy this is the 1st world cup they've played in in 20 years and they surprised everyone by beating australia and brazil to top their group and in this match they truly dominated china in my opinion an early goal rolled out but then in the 15th minute fallon tina tchen started and finished this move which opened the scoring and then aurora golly as we see it will. soon a beautiful long range f. it school to is to double to late and for me it was a deserved winter italy. beautiful strike you absolutely gorgeous and i think china did come back a little bit in the 2nd period but from a deserved win for italy it's the 1st knockout win in the history of the world cup and it feels like the country is on the verge of something special the federation

is treating women's football much more seriously than playing attacking football on the middle. and i won't be surprised if they knock out one of the heavyweights in the quarterfinals and this is a world cup we're seeing also strong competitors coming in from from different continents so we just talked about japan but still it looks like this cup is being dominated by europeans yet definitely i mean 7 teams out of 8 in the quarterfinals of your pain there's a story of women's football unfortunately nations with better run programs more funding. countries like spain italy england are taking women's football more seriously whereas other countries such as nigeria argentina chile they're struggling to even get proper payment for their services so you saying the teams that trading women's football seriously doing well and that's how it is young thanks so much sport thanks bella do it yourself home repair has led to the discovery of a multi-million euro masterpiece in the french city of toulouse the work by the

italian master card is believed to have been left in an attic for at least 100 years caravaggio's judith and hall of furnace a grisly biblical scene in which jewish widow judith beheads the syrian general who's come to destroy his city and her people. until a few years ago this apparent loss moss a piece from the italian artist was hidden away in an attic in toulouse france. she would have thought i wanted to sell and to lose because the story started here so i wanted it to end here with the agreement of the seller of course we don't know how the painting made its way back here the most plausible explanation is that a relative of the sellers came back from the napoleonic wars with the painting. 2 it was discovered while a couple who want to remain anonymous investigated a leaky roof at their home on history fans fascinated and on stone house. now in

art history we often think that everything has been seen everything has been discovered and in fact we realize that there are still hidden treasures when. this painting however is controversial some all historians disagree that it is indeed a camera piece but despite the doubts it's been privately sold to a mystery for an estimated 150000000 euros. meaning to check my attic just reminder the top stories we're following for you here on the news a record heat wave has put parts of europe on high alert with authorities warning of the risk of heat stroke and severe dehydration temperatures are expected to reach between 35 and 40 degrees celsius in some countries. and u.s. president trumps son in law and senior adviser jared kush now has launched the administration's long awaited israel palestine peace plan in basra it could be
