10:02 am
verification but are waiting to hear from the kingdom referring to saudi arabia a rainy and back who the rebels based in yemen have claimed responsibility but the u.s. says there is no evidence the attacks were launched from there u.s. officials say these satellite images of the impact indicate the attacks came from the direction of iran or iraq rather than from yemen. now for his part around president hassan rouhani at this to say your be joining you for the sure roma americans instead of confessing that their presence in the region. in syria in yemen and other areas he has been problematic they accuse the countries of the region. so how are the markets responding to the loss of 5 percent of global delhi oil production monica jones we did have your businesses here for more on that good morning monica prices spiking right away on
10:03 am
the news what's it looking like right now if east somewhat i think you mentioned it also i've just checked just before i came to the studio currently brant crude stands at $67.00 a barrel still 10 percent higher than it was before the attack but it's somewhat east and we're not surprised of course that oil prices spiked those attacks were hitting the world's biggest petroleum processing facility and saudi arabia of course being the biggest oil exporter shipping more than $7000000.00 barrels a day a knock out of 5 percent of global oil surprise crude supply is dramatic at least at 1st especially when considering that the facility will not be operational for weeks to come according to experts and this represents 50 percent of overall saudi oil production so so it is quite quite a blow and shows you know just how vulnerable our global oil when to connect is isn't it it's all connected it's not just vulnerable i think it's very important to
10:04 am
say that it's very volatile let me just remind you that we've been talking for weeks and months about forwarding all prices in fact they were falling below $60.00 a barrel in recent weeks to the point that only last week on thursday opec members came together and saudi arabia in particular demanded that everybody sticks to cutting out. to put in order to keep prices somewhat ok especially after it seemed on wednesday last week when us president on a trump sort of implied that he might ease sanctions on iran which would have boosted out put an obviously weigh on prices so we're talking about a very volatile situation but not that dramatic yet the situation and saudi arabia what happened is dramatic but when it comes to oil prices the peaks this year we've seen where $75.00 a barrel when not there yet much much lower right now ok where are we are are we
10:05 am
right the 60 mark $67.00 i don't know if you can feel it immediately here in germany just yet of course whenever something happens with the all presidential it'll hit the consumer but it's quite interesting that i found out of all it'll be the motorists on the u.s. west coast who who are most likely to feel it why because all facilities those that were attacked account for nearly half of all u.s. crore crude imports from saudi arabia and california in particular relies very heavily on those imports due to lack of pipelines to connect them with oil rich texas so this is a problem for you so the sun doesn't always shine no in calaveras county when it comes to problems like this monica thanks very much ok. and moloko of much more on the latest market reactions that's coming up in our business this let's check out some of the other stories making the news at this hour votes are being counted in tunisia snap presidential election about widely seen as a test of one of the world's youngest moccasins the only one to emerge from the

10:07 am
centering on the last islamist and rebel stronghold in syria it live turkish president ezer tired bear to one fears a syrian offensive there will send tens of thousands of new refugees towards his country in response he wants to set up what he's calling a safe zone for refugees inside syria he's also threatening to quote open the floodgates as he puts it and allow refugees to start coming to europe once again. turkish troops by warning shots and tear gas at the border with syria. they're trying to prevent syrian protesters from storming across the front here. the demonstrators are demanding protection from an offensive by the syrian government on the last rebel stronghold 2. that if nothing is done to help them we are coming to turkey and europe a lump of. this is added once fear that the destruction and the death in
10:08 am
a glib will send tens of thousands more syrian refugees towards his country joining the nearly $4000000.00 who've already fled the carnage. he say's it will have to matter consequences not just for turkey but for europe too because the couple are our children and we will be forced to open the gates. and let our children we will be forced to open the gates this before going to provide support then provide support if you are not sorry everyone sees this area in northern syria as one solution to any new refugee crisis. turkish and american troops are already patrolling here ahead of the establishment of what's being called a safe zone for the resettlement of up to 1000000 syrian refugees but everyone says the international community and europe in particular i'm not offering enough support for the plan. he also accuses the e.u.
10:09 am
of failing to honor its commitments in a landmark 2016 refugee deal with turkey the e.u. offered anchorage 6000000000 euros to stop the flow of migrants into europe in 2015 but added one says he's received barely half of the money europe says it's willing to have a discussion without $1.00 but greece which takes in most of the new arrivals says he must 1st change his tone. the migration issue is a european matter it is not a bilateral issue and mr edwin must understand that he cannot threaten greece and europe in an attempt to secure more resources to handle the refugee issue the lover could never open. that with more migrants reaching greek shows in august 2900 minutes any other time in the last 3 years athens also knows the dissolution needs to be found urgently. ok let's get the very latest on this now a dorian jones our correspondent in istanbul good morning dorian president area one
10:10 am
wants to prevent a new wave of syrian migrants from entering turkey we saw he has a lot of reasons to do so in that report what does he need from the summit today to get that well i think he's looking for a sea sation of all airstrikes by the syrian regime forces particularly those targeting civilian areas which is causing this mass movement of refugees on top of that though moscow will counter and say that the only people being targeted is what they say are terrorists who are not covered by this cease fire agreement that was hatched out last year now the the discussion between the 2 sides on who is a terrorist and who is not will be a key part of the discussions today on top of that turkey will be looking for a guarantees of safety for 12 of its military outpost in syria in the province which are there to enforce a buffer zone between syrian regime forces and rebel forces one of those observation posts is now surrounded by syrian forces and others have come under
10:11 am
fire tokyo looking for guarantees of safety for those turkish military forces does it look like will be able to get around and russia to play along with that does he have any opportunity there to apply pressure on them or is there any hope that he can achieve that. well turkey is find itself an increasingly difficult situation the the the forces of syrian forces are slowly advancing and there is a feeling that it's only a matter of time before they overrun this last outpost of the syrian reach syrian rebels but turkey does have military forces in this italy province there is a fear that possibly they could be a clash between turkish and syrian forces now moscow iran will be looking to avoid that scenario turkey also has forces in other parts of syria so turkey does have some important leverage at the moment ok how is all of this been are affecting the situation at the border the syrian push as you mentioned it mentioned in province
10:12 am
well what we're seeing is there is around 3 and a half 1000000 syrians who are trapped in this it live region many of them around half are believed to be people who have fled the fighting in other parts of syria and the belief is that the if this really area is finally overrun by syrian forces these people have nowhere to go but towards turkey there is already reports around half a 1000000 refugees are now building up on the turkish border according to the turkish red crescent and the feeling is that if he'd leave does ultimately fall there will be a mass influx into turkey turkey is strengthening its border wall to prevent that but the feeling is if you have a 1000000 people trying to enter the country they will not be able to stop it and turkey will be facing a major influx and a humanitarian crisis ok if that comes to pass will air the one as he put it open the floodgates and let more refugees cross into europe. well there
10:13 am
is his feeling in unca they have around 3 and a half 1000000 refugees syrian refugees in turkey there is growing fatigue in the country one poll said that 80 percent of turks want the syrians gone this is hurting one politically and also feeling the physically could be ultimately a social explosion in the country given the rising tensions growing economic problems so the feeling of the moment to give to his european partners is turkey cannot cope with any more refugees or europe has to take its responsibility if they don't then turkey will say has no responsibility to open its borders door in jones thanks very much for that from istanbul israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu has approved a new settlement in the occupied west bank the move comes just 2 days ahead of a very closely fought election as he seeks to boost turnout among his conservative base now his main opponent benny gantz has also been out trying to mobilize his supporters the w.'s tanya kramer has more on this. for the 2nd time in
10:14 am
a year newly it who runs this family owned cafe will be casting his ballot he hopes that benyamin netanyahu will from the next coalition government be be as everyone calls to prime minister some time stops by for coffee and pastry at this neighborhood cafe like many other likud supporters said if you see snow i'll turn it if to the long serving leader. in a demolition the man has experienced and this is extremely important it's very important for people here to have someone to run the state as he does it a state like israel with so many challenges and having good relations with world leaders all around the world. following the last election in april netanyahu failed to put a coalition together some analysts describe the elections as a fight for his political life not least because of corruption allegations these
10:15 am
elections are not about any policy issue at all these elections are shakespear are there to be be or not to be that it will continue to happen even though there are 3 a criminal investigation is hanging over his head he has proven inability to overcome any obstacle before and he'd be able to do that again now. his main rival benny gantz head of the center of i.q. and right party emerged as a real threat to netanyahu in the previous election touring the country like here in southern israel guns who served as military chief under netanyahu wants to sway voters with his security record and a different comet leadership. this appeals to which. she would like to see a less self-centered prime minister and a more centrist less religious coalition government i need a. ben i am voting for benny gantz and his entire team and the party itself because they are politically in the center with all they all have clean.
10:16 am
they care about the general public not a cause. and some make a couple. pollsters predict a tight race netanyahu is fighting for every vote and he's not shying away from making election promises his pledge to annex settlements in the jordan valley in the occupied west bank if reelected has triggered heavy criticism up wrote tone to it as elections spin in israel it remains to be seen whether it's ways more voters of the smaller right wing parties to the likud most people are very cynical about these promises including the right wing who are in favor of x. ation they're saying well you've been prime minister for 13 years until now and you're telling us a week before the elections suddenly there is a historic opportunity to do this at the cafe all eyes are on election day everybody here knows that there's real power struggle with begin over
10:17 am
a coalition building by the day after. it's the 2nd time in the year that israelis are going to the polls this tuesday traditionally security and economic issues are top priority protests but these elections are seen as a kind of their friend i'm on the longstanding prime minister benjamin netanyahu and whether he will be able to form a coalition. this is deja vu news live from berlin still to come on our show the story of the minnows shaking things up at the very top of the slaying of freiburg are in the top 4 and intend to stay. but 1st the remains of zimbabwe's former president robert mugabe will be taken to his home village for a wake on monday we got we died a week ago at $95.00 in singapore after being ousted in a 27000 coup as the w.c. crease reports he still divides opinion in zimbabwe and just as he did in life.
10:18 am
no it's preparing extra classes for local children and it's neighborhoods he's a mass teacher and lives in the village of tama it's a prestigious address robert mugabe's estate is right next door to our bills little hats he is a fan of the late president. we lived in harmony with the late former president mugabe as if he would encourage us to a quiet you cation as a teacher he himself was a legend in education he used to employ a lot of young people at his home stands no one on the. limited national you know all the roads that you see around he would employ young people to repair to consideration of who is far better connected to the country's infrastructure than most villages in zimbabwe for most of the villages. associated with positive memories. inflated we would run to his gate each friday when we would hear sirens
10:19 am
of his motorcade he would give us can decent biscuits those were happy moments for us as kids. and many residents are still angry about the coup that removed mugabe from office 2 years ago. was it was a good day. so we were at their wrist by the ouster of mugabe he was a good leader even now we have very disappointed with that things are not well in the country you know we feel it could be the manner in which we removed an elder like mugabe from power after 37 years it could be a curse because we are now facing many problems. i mean no delusions it is a difficult. job oversaw the complete collapse of the economy and zimbabwe the country is still reeling from that 3rd of the population is dependent on food aid to survive and the unemployment rate stands at 80 percent. the electricity and
10:20 am
water supplies i'm reliable at the best many who placed their hopes it will got the successor emerson one got one now see their hopes evaporating analysts say criticism of him that god was even in the euro zone within his own party despite efforts to repress it. possibly was that those who are political shy too are known as the generation 4 door the g 4 to. trying to spike to cut into government of president and for those of reasons which are political then do you also see that even within the ruling party we still have some pockets or for people who are for mugabe even though he's no good. the conflict has even spreads to the organisation of mugabe's funeral his family wanted to bury him in this home village but the government plan to have him enter it and he was taken in the capital harare the
10:21 am
family eventually gave in but the conflict meant the burial was delayed for a month. this is the grave of celie mugabe the ex-wife off robert and we're right next to it he was originally supposed to be buried there still space here but at the moment in mosul is built somewhere close by where he'll be laid to rest in october. in his village of tama local residents plan to say their own final farewell to the late president mugabe's family hopes the calm of the ration will not be marched by mention of the human rights violations murders of dissidents the economic meltdown and the recent dispute with the government over the burial i think in death. what do was destroyed this being rebuilt. in the. if you listen to the president of the peace deal if you're right there i think the legacy has really been put together i guess for his former neighbor.
10:22 am
to god it will always be the hero who let the country to independence but more important than that is to build a brighter future for zimbabwe. it's stupendously your football now where early season results have been a breath of fresh air for those fans have lamented the same teams usually dominating the top of the table one of the new faces to appear in the top 4 after throwing a weekend of action is freiburg after beating hoffenheim many are now sitting up and paying attention to them. made for changes to a starting lineup for the clash with oppenheimer and it soon paid off chris john made it one nearly in the 11th minute. the defender drilling it into the corner of the net sebastian rudy tried to respond for hoffenheim but keeper alexander displayed some sharp reflexes meanwhile his team stayed on the attack and played
10:23 am
with more urgency. doubling fribourg lead late in the 1st half was and peterson added another in the 59th minute his 2nd goal of the season rounding out the female scoreline in the. mentality. conviction. i'm very happy. and his team celebrated fribourg best ever start to a campaign hoffenheim meanwhile have only managed to win one game this season. so was happening to talk more about this and the book this league is other we can actually we're joined by limo docky from you'd have used words good morning alina you know what happened to do the usual bundesliga powerhouses that that are typically dominating the tables at this stage yeah so of course we're talking here mainly about by and munich and this really could be the year that finally we have
10:24 am
a team come along step up to the plate and perhaps a break and let me remind of us the 7 year of not buying it has had on the title and of course it's going to be a 3 horse race the contenders are dortmund and i say that this could possibly also turn into a 4 horse race because take a look at the team behind you yeah work work has stunning aren't they yeah they have snuck their way into the top 3 and you will have more on that later. but also . by a knicks coach he even has said that this could possibly be a 4 house horse race for the title he even included leave a cruise in as a contender as though we're going to have i think a very generous interpretation of the been to speak of the season you know the big question of course was byron and leipzig oh yes yes what stood out there i mean the game definitely lived up to the expectation because to the hype because it kind of
10:25 am
the injected some competition into the bundesliga and yes i get it like say he know it by endorsement dominated life did get lucky but at the end what matters is what people will remember is the fact that this ended 11 that might seek managed to take points off by a new name and i think is the main difference i think in the past like perhaps one of been able to do that but with novice money i think there are real contenders and so let's take a look at how that result affected the standings of course and yes there's nothing wrong with your eyesight it is safe still at the top after the draw with a buy on the defending. champions fall to 4th don't move to 2nd and let's talk about high work the surprise package so far with one of the smallest budgets in the league they move to throw out the best of us talk to a been to see a season and they only conceded 3 goals so far exceptional that's an incredible table when you look at the very unusual their usual it's very eyes is that
10:26 am
everything upside down and i love it dortmund has had trouble says. yeah but here's the thing i think they need it the win against leave a coup isn't on the weekend and i think they needed to more than anyone else they needed to prove to themselves that look we're not going to fall into old habits that when the going gets tough we are going to bounce back and they have that especially after losing to a new one that you know if that's all always the thing that that meant as well it's losing points to smaller teams but i think with that statement win against leave a question for new very important for them because you know who is waiting for them now boston know and i'm sure they knew buffalo know watching us they face tomorrow it will enjoy your brady a look to be ours that exactly thanks very much for sorting the wheat this way for us. the state of the news live from berlin coming up we'll have plenty more the latest business news was mark on monaco development of oil prices in light of the attacks on saudi arabia's oil facilities i'm brian thomas of the entire team thanks
