a list house a story. about prize for physics has announced a trio of space research as well as for their contributions to the understanding of how the universe evolved on the feet earth's place in it's. time for welcome to the program prosecutors in germany have charged a man who hijacked a truck and crashed it into a line of cars with attempted to 9 people were injured in the incident that happened overnight in the western town off limburg police quickly detained the driver and identified him as a syrian national who's been resident in germany since 2015 is most of hasn't been established. this is the truck that rammed into several cars in the western german sit. limburg on monday police believe the person at the wheel pulled the truck's

original driver out of his cab there was immediate speculation that the case might be connected to terrorism but federal officials have dismissed that possibility for now. my latest information says that at the moment there's no grounds to say there's a terrorist background to this event that is the status at the moment that. the truck's driver was a 32 year old syrian national the man arrived in germany in 2015 and was apparently known to police for assault and drug charges. detained the person behind the wheel of the truck at the moment we are investigating the reason for the collision and of course everything else necessary to determine what happened here. at this police searched 2 apartments last night they collected possible evidence including mobile phones and u.s.b.

sticks the investigation is ongoing and prosecutors say they can't yet give any information on a possible motive. especially with the reported. this incident took place. so no word on motive but investigators do seem to have rolled out to terrorism. that's right phil i mean based on what investigators are now saying they're basically stepping away from a motive of terrorism they are saying that he apparently has no previous links to any extremist islamist groups but nevertheless they are still not firmly ruling this out all together they are still indeed investigating what we do know though new details have emerged is that his residency permit has expired on october 1st and it is still unclear if he had applied to extend it or not we also know that he

has already been charged in cases of paris meant in the german state of north rhine-westphalia when he harassed a 16 year old. teenager so he was known to the police so there is. a motive well right now they're not giving too many details they're trying to be very cautious about what they're saying and keep investigating but it seems that they have kind of like step back from the idea that perhaps this attack is somehow inspired by the 2016 car ramming attack on the christmas market in berlin so as of now all options are still open phil. thank you. now take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world hong kong's chief executive carry on that she will not rule out chinese intervention in the 7 times

i did germany's chancellor really tell britain's prime minister that it breaks the deal is overwhelmingly likely well as for the close a souls close to boris johnson has told british media following a phone call this morning between the prime minister and i'm going to map the leak has prompted a new council president don't have to ask towards the job center bret's it should not become a blame game the u.k. is due to leave the european union at the end of this month. the w.'s have breaks it honest alex forrest whiting can break this down for us welcome alex that's what do we know about who said what to who or what we officially know is that boris johnson spokesperson has said that this conversation between angela merkel and boris johnson this morning was challenging but on that officially a source close to boris johnson top. told a british political journalist that angle americal allegedly said that a brics a deal is overwhelmingly unlikely and less london except that northern ireland

which is part of the u.k. remains in a customs union with the e.u. to prevent a hard border returning between northern ireland and the republic of ireland and the british government is saying that is just not going to happen very soon. about is a leisure time in this phone call it we would normally know the contents so now that we know one side's version of the contents what sort of reaction has there been from germany and from the e.u. well the chancellor rhee has said yes this conversation did take place but they will not divulge what was that she said because it was a private conversation many medical watches a saying it's a language that she's allegedly used it just seems unlikely it's not her kind of tone and she's always said she would do everything to ensure that there was an orderly brix it but we have heard from no but again who is chairman of the german foreign affairs committee and he tweeted there is no new german position on brics it frankly

a deal on the basis of johnson's proposals until october the 31st has been unrealistic from the beginning and yet the e.u. has been willing to engage blaming others for the current situation is not fair play and many in brussels also believe that that is what boris johnson is trying to do so to blame all those if you cannot get this deal a very angry tweet from the e.u. council president donald tusk who tweeted boris johnson directly what's at stake is not winning some stupid blame game at stake is the future of europe and the u.k. as well as the security and interests of all people you don't want to deal you don't want an extension you don't want to revoke quo vadis and that means where are you going but there are many certainly in the u.k. who believe that that is this is another example of the e.u. doing oh. it can to stop bricks that look at that tweet head that came from the group believe you we didn't win 2 world wars to be pushed around by

a kraut across of course is a rather unkind word that some british use for germans but yeah that's all that we will bury the cell or syringe. you carry is due to leave the e.u. in street week so does this latest exchange spot raul change anything mean anything i don't think it does particularly no i mean boris johnson has said that he will leave with or without a deal last week he submitted his own plans to the e.u. to try to sort out the issue of a northern ireland unlikely to be accepted he's also had his hands rather tight by his own parliament who have said that if you cannot get a deal with the e.u. a by next weekend when there is this new council meeting that he must also brics it to be delayed again he says he doesn't want to do that he's doing everything to say it will not be his fault if he does have to do it so i think that is the way that we are heading at the moment alex forrest watching. the fighting spectacle cross

the channel and other presidents thank you. either something very wonderful or it's something horrible that's what one of this year's nobel laureates for physics thought a phone call telling him he'd be receiving the prize 3 scientists have been named as witness the nobel committee said the prizes being awarded for their work on understanding the structure of the universe. it all began when the universe exploded out of a hot dead state nearly 14000000000 years later her for the nobel prize in physics was granted for our understanding of what happened next the royal we did she can move sciences has today decided to award the 2900 new bell prize in physics with one half to james peebles for theoretical discoveries in physical cosmology. back in the 1960 s. cosmology was largely a speculative science but since then we've learned

a huge amount about the evolution of the universe around us and james peebles was a key figure in that process nearly every step of the way time after time his seminal work in the field has helped scientists interpret traces from its earliest days and also help show the universe is expanding due to 2 of the greatest mysteries in modern physics dark matter and dark energy to other researchers and astronomy were also honored and the other half jointly to be shelled by you. for the discovery of an exoplanet orbiting a solar types thought back in the early 1990 s. it was still impossible to take the incredibly detailed measurements of a distant star to could show whether it was orbited by a planet michelle maior and d.d. a kilo developed new cutting edge methods to do so and sparked a revolution in astronomy more than 4000 so-called exoplanets have been pinpointed since their 1st pioneering efforts

a number that steadily growing. the list now even contains planets that could theoretically be conducive to life circling distant stars the discoveries made by this year's physics laureates have forever changed our perception of the universe around us. there's a thailand where wildlife officials have discovered the bodies of another 5 wild elephants in a river the cow yard national park and they made the discovery while investigating how a group of 6 elephants died after plunging into a waterfall at the weekend. these 2 elephants are the lucky ones they survived the fast flowing waters that swept away the rest of their herd officials initially thought 6 elephants died including a 3 year old car. but we think the elephants were trying to cross over to the other side of the river probably one of the smaller elephants slipped on the adult ones

were trying to rescue them but instead was swept away by the water but aerial photos taken during the investigation revealed another 5 bodies 30 say it's the largest number of elephants to die in a single incident. for now we can say that based on these aerial photographs there were 11 dead elephants in total. and only 2 survived. pictured here before the devastating incident last weekend this heart was part of a population of around 300 wild elephants in the park the waterfall where the elephants giant is known as the ravine of hell tile 30 saying they will now look at walkways over the waterfall other solutions to prevent a tragedy like this from happening again. quick word sports and one of germany's
