2:02 pm
this latest development with our correspondents at mach sumi and of course that she joins us now from our parliamentary issue use here in a bird live so we've got a confession max what's next well what we know so far is what we have confirmed today by the authorities is that the suspect stephan he has confessed to the crime to the killing off volatile of the politician from the state of hacer and what we know so far is well that he claims he has done it alone but investigators says they want to inspect this claim any further they want to see if this is really true and what is still open and not confirmed entirely is the motive for the crime so the suspect has said he was against the policies the pro myron policies of all to look at his party the conservative see you which is also the party of chancellor angela merkel and but this hasn't been confirmed yet and why and how he exactly decided to
2:03 pm
kill the politician so this investigation in other words is by no means done. no it is not and the federal minister of internal affairs wholesale for who is with his to parliament overseeing the authorities leading the investigation has said they want to broaden the investigation they want to look further in again if the suspect has been acting alone as he claims or if there is an underground network of foreign extremists behind the killing and also if and how the authorities have been acting appropriately in the investigation because what we've seen in recent years is that there was a lot of criticism towards the german investigative authorities in not acknowledging and realizing the broth of foreign extremism here in germany now many local and regional politicians have already reported receiving threats and hate messages does that mean now that because of the murder of mr also the there those
2:04 pm
threats will be taken much much more seriously this time around. this is war we can already see by the means of the german parliament so the oversight committee for the investigative authorities has been holding a mass meeting today an extraordinary meeting where they awesome pressure the authorities on the progress of the investigation and they have been saying they want to also potentially extend the investigation into looking into full my case is a far right extremism and how they may be relating to this recent killing so we've seen the very prominent case of the end as you killings in the early 2002007 years and the trial that followed that and there was a lot of talk about how the issue of foreign extremism especially in the sense of targeting politicians hasn't been taken seriously led and that there may be potential links between the case of foreign extremism and these targets of politicians maximally and their pursuit go our political correspondent thank you.

2:07 pm
here when i read that message. it made me want to cry because i saw it as a source of goodbye. if it is. the tragedy a marriage to democrats in washington pasta bill calling for extra cash to address the conditions in migrant detention centers because recognize for one minute thank you madam speaker this issue ation this child abuse is not tri-city that violates every value we have not only as americans but as moral beings donald trump says he will veto it but deaths like oscar and valerie is on america's borders may make such a hard line stance difficult to hold. now but some of the other stories making news around the world. a dutch flagged german rescue ship says it has just entered italian waters despite orders from rome to stay away sea watch 3
2:08 pm
has been waiting off the island of lampedusa for 2 weeks with over 40 migrants on board italy's government has set the ship should travel to germany or the netherlands instead. a new united nations report has revealed the scale of global drug use the authors highlight at the level of use with 53000000 people worldwide now taking the substances cocaine production also hit record highs reaching almost 2000 tonnes in 2017. former u.s. special counsel robert muller has agreed to testify to public hearings in congress next month muller led the investigation into russian election meddling and detailed numerous occasions when u.s. president donald trump may have obstructed justice muller previously the client to face public questioning over his report. president trump son in law jared cushier has appealed to palestinians to support
2:09 pm
a plan he says will revive their economy and improve their lives their proposals presented at a meeting in bahaman involve investing billions of dollars in the palestinian territories but critics say the plans are unworkable and they fail to mention the israeli occupation and the stranglehold this has on the palestinian economy the proposals also do not set out a political solution to the conflict the palestinians for their part have also already rejected the plans. 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
2:10 pm
$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 torah center and gaza in 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 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 questionnaire 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
2:11 pm
a message that we would not be the cvs by the so-called economy plan that it can be you know it going to make solution as a substitute god freedom and 2nd how can we have it going to make 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 cushman as proposal is meaningless here in the west bank palestinians burned an empty casket it reads deal of the century born dead. i'd like to welcome now alexander graff lamb star for the free democratic party he's a deputy member of the foreign affairs committee at the bundestag and chair of the german israeli parliament street friendship group a very warm welcome sir there's no palestinian no israeli participation in beheading many in the region have already rejected the plan outright or are
2:12 pm
indifferent to it what do you make of mr christian or splat. well i believe it's important to recognize that the plan in that of itself cannot work without a political solution and that the palestinians have a point but the americans have said repeatedly that the political portion of their plan for the middle east is to follow so therefore i believe it's premature really to just throw the plan out of the window and simply declare that one wouldn't accept it i think one has to wait for the full picture to emerge and that includes a political dimension yeah but shouldn't they have started with that i mean a lot of people are saying that mr kushner is really missing the point here. well of course it would have been desirable for a political plan to have appeared earlier but as we know there were elections in israel in april and there will be new elections because the prime minister has not been able to form a government again in september so therefore the political portion has been postponed and i will not reject the plan out of fent i think it would be unwise to
2:13 pm
do so before one knows what the political plan contains how it interacts interlocks with the economic plan that question of presented again 1 may be critical and one by 1 may be skeptical but i think it would be wrong to just simply. reject the plan out of hand but if you can't get those involved at the table then really what has been the intention of this plant was it ever the intention for it to work well i think of the intention is there for us to work but of course the trumpet ministration has done some unwise things for example in moving the american embassy to jerusalem ever since that state the palestinians have boycotted every contact with the united states and therefore it's was not a surprise to me or to anyone who observes the situation in the region that the palestinians should not attend i mean they've declared a boycott of contacts with the trumpet ministration that's what they're doing now again you know but i just want to add as well the israelis are not there yet or they're not participating in behind me there is not just the palestinians i don't
2:14 pm
know whether israelis don't go perhaps it's because of their campaign perhaps it's because of the location of the conference i think the crucial thing is not to take a final decision on whether to accept the plan or not today or tomorrow wait for the conference to play out wait for the development of the next few weeks and months look at what the political plan and tails and then looking at the picture of the overall picture of the complete plan but the political and economic dimension and then take a decision that is based on full information alexander graff alam star for the free democratic party thank you sir. and yemen fighting has erupted between pro-government forces and who think rebels in the southwestern city. official say at least 16 rebels have been killed in the violence the united nations has called yemen's 5 year civil war the world's worst humanitarian crisis.
2:15 pm
the rumble of tanks. the boom of cannon fire. the rattle of machine guns the residents of the city of tires hope they'd heard the last of the sounds after yemen's warring parties agreed to a cease fire last december but now the standoff between government forces and iran back to the rebels has again turned violent that's after a spate of hooty drone attacks in saudi arabia which has sided with the government . the 4 year conflict has already killed thousands and caused what the united nations says is the world's worst humanitarian crisis. and the suffering in yemen could increase still the u.n. last week announced that it is partially suspending aid deliveries it blames the who tista pilfering aid and for obstructing efforts to ensure it reaches the needy . this vessel unloaded $10000.00 tons of flour at the contested port of how data
2:16 pm
earlier this month. should such shipments cease millions are at risk of starvation . here in the year of this constant is being hit by an unprecedented heat wave temperatures today are forecast to break records for the month of june and in some cases even surpassed the highest levels ever recorded in certain countries take for example paris the average high for this time of the year in the french capital is 23 degrees celsius today the forecast is 36 and is the same in the spanish capital it should be around 27 degrees but we're expecting 38 degrees in madrid and here at our studios in berlin it's the same story the average june high is 22 the forecast set 36 but the mercury has actually reached 37 in the last hour while the extreme weather is expected to continue until the weekend and governments have issued health warnings that are urging people to do everything they can to stay cool.
2:17 pm
keeping cool in most every way possible people and animals across continental here at the feeling the heat of unusually high temperature is. just drinking try to don't make too fast too slowly. drink drink drink. and that's what this hot sun we trying to. to the cooler places of work that will follow the course with all the other 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 reward a. meteorologist say the soaring temperatures a juju hausherr blowing in from north africa but many also call this heat wave unprecedented. in france so
2:18 pm
authorities are taking extra precautions to care for the most vulnerable. the country is still scarred by the intense heat wave of 2003 in which almost 15000 people died. this isn't scare mongering 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 i'm 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 due to the history of. the haze was visible in the paris on tuesday and pollution levels could rise further as the mercury crimes. in germany or thirty's in the state of brandon back at battling wildfires the area is
2:19 pm
a tinderbox off to prolong talked and dry weather. amid warnings across europe that midweek temperatures could break records staying cool remains top of the agenda. are add to the women's world cup now in france where the round of 16 is over and the quarter finals are set and yet expect a firm did every sports is here with me good to see you again to tell us about the match of the round of 16 big. that was a heavyweight match up yes indeed it was we have the netherlands of course your favorite tame the european champions up against japan who won the world cup in 2011 and the finalists in 2015 as you said a real heavyweight match up there and both teams really went for it the momentum changed from side to side and for me it was probably the best match of the world cup so it was a extremely exciting game lots of goal mouth action and even a cruel twist of fate at the end so let's take
2:20 pm
a look at how little panda. the netherlands launched themselves into the lead early in the 1st half thanks to deacon martins 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 fine passing move with the finish deserved to draw things level. a 2nd for japan seemed inevitable in the 2nd half i mean to be keeper from distance. and later on he suitor went close to the ruins were on the rocks safe here only by the woodwork. though a stroke of luck for good to watch a penalty right at the day after vivian made him up the last of the shot at sac ecomog eyes are there was no mistake from martin in the 90th minute and orange elation ensued brutal misfortune and for japan the actual moment is are over.
2:21 pm
i am really happy for the net for the luck for japan people crying behind me is well so i mean they were finalists 4 years ago so what went wrong yes so i mean as you said finalists 4 years ago but this is definitely a team in transition so they only have 5 players left from the team that made the finals 4 years ago and they've got the younger scored in the world cup in this tournament and so they're no longer a world force and to be honest i surprised me a bit in this netherlands match because i watched them last week in nice live against england and i just want that impressive they were a bit fractured in attack they couldn't break through england and they were pushed off the ball way too easily but against the netherlands in that 2nd half they were since late and they were easily the better team and i thought they were going to go on to win it but of course this unfortunate penalty shall we say with the hymn ball and you know devastating for japan as we said but i think it's a good omen for them going into the future they have a young team they want to under twenty's world cup last year and so i think in 4
2:22 pm
years time they'll come back they've got that armstrong are right what about the other match of the night to china italy yes so we had china who were once a football powerhouse in italy who looking like they're emerging an emerging football powerhouse it was their 1st world cup in 20 years to italy and they surprised everyone they beat australia they bait brazil they took their group and then they came up against trauma and they surprise everyone again we'll see some highlights coming up soon but i donated this match and the 1st goal was scored in the 15th minute tina. started and finished in. china's defense not so strongly as you can see and then aurora galli scored the 2nd goal in the 2nd half with this long range beauty very few struck and a deserved to win the italy and their 1st knockout match ever in the world cup so huge thing for them and it's feels like italy on the verge of something special they're putting more money into the into the domestic league the national team is
2:23 pm
playing attacking football a strong defensively and i won't be surprised to see the make an upset against another once all right well we're going to there is a theory that in the 20 final seconds that i have a with the european teams are doing really well in this world cup exactly 7 out of 8 teams in the quarter finals off from europe and it does come down to funding i think your paintings of putting more money into the game the taking a bit more seriously and i think hopefully this is a cutlass for the countries outside europe to take women's football more seriously and give it the funding it deserves as it should yeah yeah expect forgive us for it thank you so very pleased. and we're going to stay with football in the men's africa cup of nations where the hosts of the tournament egypt are hoping to seal their place in the knockout stages star player most sour and his teammates seemed in a relaxed mood leading into their match tonight against the democratic republic of congo a win could confirm each of spots in the round of 16 overall though sorry mean to
