the rule of law we are prepared to defend ourselves against the law if there was against our nation and if we are capable of defending. a liberal. have him because rules of freedom and this is not about narrowing down the freedom of our citizens but this is about fighting crime and we will not be stopped on that way and i think we actually have to take a very firm step from that way. it's become almost over you know what i mean of course this is not new but i wanted to you mention it again we will actually staff up security authorities at. the federal criminal office and the federal constitution office we will hire a few hundreds of people in addition because once again we cannot reduce those active in fighting islamist terrorism. and use them in other

areas you know we will hire another 100 people currently the budget is speedy and discussed and i think this will be granted in november and when fighting right wing extremism hatred and terrorism that's all we wanted to be able to use the same organizational units that we use when it comes to fighting islam ista maybe her this is very important because monitoring online and persimmon crime online is something that requires a lot off staff of course certain things can be automated but ladies and gentlemen it's a mental image most effective still is and will be a human being when it comes to fighting crimes and terrorism and i also welcome and i'm quite happy about that. state premier i also welcome would you say that

because we need democrats to stand up and this is why i really well you're at activities on the market square and we have to make a contribution to make all these actions permanent. fortune on the federal republic of germany. with a b. as maiden only. reason we the world never again and in ours like these once again we firmly stand behind this oath and feel obliged to it and mr schuster like to tell you that this federal government will do everything in its might. to make sure that the jewish community can live in our country without threats without fear you know me from. you and i

believe it is very important that everything that we are discussing today that you're discussing today that we will continue discussing that all these discussions will be followed by actions because that creates trust. and it also contributes to the oath that we have made never again. thank you very much we will now take questions as. of the german press agency. mr c. who are you and your fellow. press conference and take a quick wrap up of who has been there we've just been listening to the interior minister we heard from the state interior minister mr. sex in the end house there

behold the shock next we'll see from the head of the jewish community the central jewish council of jews in germany mr joseph chastain as well as the state premier. any on how thomas i want to come to you right now a lot was said in this press briefing what were some of the key takeaways i see this as a long list of challenges that authorities are only now starting to address if you listen carefully at what these politicians have to say they revealed as i said a long list of things that they'd like to do in the short in the medium and in the long term and that can start by for example guaranteeing better police protection at synagogues in the highly regions i mean that was clearly mentioned there it goes as well in trying to have homogeneous safety measures across germany in reviewing legal issues and i think one of the big challenges that germany has mentioned by the interior minister horsey who is better tackling far right extremist violence

something that he described as one of the very biggest challenges in germany alongside is the mr extremism and he specifically stressed that he will discuss these issues with security authorities in order to understand what security measures have to be addressed whether more stuff he spoke of that as well today or better equipment or how that can be a better communication between federal authorities and regional authorities so it is indeed a very big task for authorities and we saw this just now that they're trying to address. now i would say they are starting to realize what political consequences have to be taken here on the $100.00 have the investigation and we heard some of those elements of the investigation in cards were from the federal prosecutors and what we've just heard now in holland is the political side of all this and from the political side it seems to me that authorities after what they have seen in how they are trying to understand what challenges. they have to address ignored horse

a whole visit to be able to guarantee that jewish communities in germany can feel safe and can't continue with their normal lives because all politicians in germany all high ranking bridges have clearly stressed that that is a key challenge and a key duty for germany to try and make sure that jewish life in the country is safe and protected thomas before this there were voices within the jewish community warning and saying that the anti semitism at least from the far right perspective was being trivialized in this country does this attack somewhat prove them right and would the officials caught off guard with this when if you ask politicians if you ask for example the interior ministry they would say that they've been trying to tackle this rising cases of these in the tick instances in the country they have put some measures in place to try and prevent some cases from happening the web site for example has been launched to try and understand these issues better the

commissioner for anti-semitism has also been named he's been in office now for over a year so if you ask for additions they could clearly say that they have been trying to deal with these kinds of isn't this but there are indeed questions now when it comes to this specific case in holland we heard by the way some of those questions by the council of the central council of jews for josephs who specifically spoke about the need to better protect synagogues in germany police protection and specifically he also mentioned the need to see whether they have to be in the legal changes in germany when it comes to prosecuting these kinds of issues so there are challenges indeed for german authorities when it comes to making sure that these situations that these attacks to not happen again we heard the words never again from horses they hope for and that is indeed a big challenge authorities have now this is something that authorities have also said time and time again it shouldn't be happening in germany specifically in germany given the countries possibly even the countries oracle response of the. i

just i mean just going back to what we heard from interior minister will say over he talked about the fact that you know if we all going to secure that promise of never again it probably has some budget implications right that means you're investing more in securing people you talked about in some cases you can automate certain features office security but you know the best thing is to have a person in the job a human being doing the job how do you see that playing out all we'd likely to see an increased budget for for securing issues like he just said that himself said that it is expected that he will be they'll be an increase in the budget for these specific cases he spoke of measures in addition to what is already being taken not measures instead of other measures that are already in place and that's why for example spoke of increasing the number of people hired to deal with these kinds of issues that is something that will probably also here in the next few days and weeks more details about about these new people these new officials trying to deal

with these issues and that's also why horse over specifically mention that there will be a meeting for example on on friday with some of the security officials here in the country to take up to try and take stock on the 100 but also understand what comes next and try and fill this list that we've just described here this list of challenges with contant because they also have to respond they have to make sure that in the short medium and long term they present the public with on to these questions that we've been discussing now tell us this is going to have we've we've heard the officials from from the state really shocked at how this could happen in such a place that is that a surprise that something like this could happen in holland it is always a surprise i think authorities can do as much as they want they can try and protect places but they will always say that there is no way of guaranteeing 100 percent security so they resolved the shock there are however questions. that will be posed

to authorities in order to try and understand their reaction and where the mistakes were made so already one issue was raised by mr schuster during that press conference by the way he also had raised this beforehand namely whether this should have been more police presence in front of the synagogue we also heard another issue that will probably raise questions raised to the authorities namely the fact that the suspects had publishes money fests 0 or 9 in advance so why did authorities fail to find that money festo in advance i clearly know that this is a very difficult challenge for authorities authorities can't simply know everything that's happening online and in fact horse eva did mention that one of the main challenges ahead for german authorities is to try to understand what is actually happening online and what crimes can be prosecuted or 9 what authorities can do to better understand what is happening in the so-called dark net but the same time other politicians will probably ask these questions that we are addressing now what

could have authorities done better in order to prevent this from happening all right carl i understand that you have managed to come out of that press conference as as we speak also what can you tell us about some of the highlights and key takeaways that you chilcote from this prison. you know we're still inside the room here but certainly it was quite an honest assessment especially from those they offer perhaps one of the most on assessments we've heard from members of the german government about the threat of anti-semitism and the threat of far right violence missed as a whole for of course calling this quote a shame for our entire country and he did say this is one of the choosing one of the central challenges putting far right violence on par with the threat of islamic extremism in germany and i echo what thomas said it was interesting to hear that they are taking the threats of the dark net very seriously course germany has very

strict gun laws so it is it was a shock for many that this alleged attacker was able to get such high profile high powered weapons so interesting to hear that they will be looking into solutions to prevent online violence as well right call there were a few dates given throwing 4 to some events that will be happening in highly friday for example a separate service monday as well but what will happen tonight in the city of hi lynn. we know around 5 o'clock there will be a gathering in the central square here in hollow that will be open to the public everyone should be showing up we know that there will be a vigil being held there are gathering in a memorial not only for the victims but for the community at large we also heard mentions of a candlelight vigil of members of the community linking arms and forming a human chain and also some religious services coming up so we know that members of the community and politicians will be holding

a sabbath tomorrow and there also are plans for a religious service at the local church here. all right that's calling those men inside that press conference today under way as the officials are taking questions thomas fire has been with me in the studio thank you to you chantal min. in fact out thomas i actually want to come back to you on this before before we head out as we've been talking there was of course an anti semitic motive here. just reminds again what is the status of anti-semitism in germany has been a rise christine in number and the number of on the miti incidents is all fences here in germany that's something that by the way comes from security officials here in in germany most of those instances most of those offenses were committed by right wing extremists again information coming from germany's security apparatus and that has meant that german authorities have tried to deal with this for about

a year now in greater detail better is a specific person now dealing with anti semitic offenses as far as the government is concerned his name is fed ex try and be the 1st ever. commissioner so there are measures in place not only to deal with the offenses that have already been confirmed but also to try and prevent the situation from happening so prevention here is also a very important word when it comes to these kinds of instances all right thomas fire political correspondent thank you. now let's take a look at some of the day of the rest of the day's news at turkey's president has lashed out at international criticism of his offensive in northeastern syria he singled out the european union which has called on him to see offensive here's what president added want to say it. you can

use a white cop you know i'll say it again. but if you try to describe our operation is an invasion. when the doors and send 3600000 migrants to you. it's as simple as you know. there are going to going to istanbul now that's correspondent dorian jones is standing by hey dorian so there we have a turkish president. making threats what's he trying to get at that i think this is all about money and the comments by young clued the european union president yesterday where he said the european union would not provide any money for what turkey's plans of a safe zone in syria turkey want to create a 30 kilometer deep several 100 kilometer long

a buffer zone in which he says he will house millions of us iraqis currently living in turkey now turkey is looking for the european union to pay for that is a price tag of over $20000000000.00 euros and the comments by you in kuwait he's condemned this operation call for restraint said that we will not give a single penny for these plans has provoked this angry response from one because a key part of that once time is that the european union ultimately pay for what it once said is a $1000000.00 new homes in this syrian reach area that turkey plans to take control ok stand by dorian because since turkey launched its offensive on wednesday civilians have started feeling well that syria has what's been happening. artillery and aerial bombing light up the sky as turkish troops continue their offensive in northeast syria. they're not getting turkey's plan to carve out a buffer zone along the border and to move against their longtime enemy the kurdish

led syrian democratic forces the kurds say several civilians and soldiers have already died in the assault and they claim turkish bombs that struck a prison holding fighters from the so-called islamic state. retaliates restrikes came from within syria. some heating homes on the turkish side of the border. turkish president rejects edda one over so the start of what he calls operation peace spring it's an offensive made possible by washington's decision to clear the way by withdrawing u.s. troops we were put into this battle interjected it was supposed to be a 3030 day period and we've been there for many many years and it's time to get out we're speaking to bus it's. we've told the president her to go and how we feel but we are speaking to us and we're seeing what can be made out of

a situation both the u.s. and turkey belong to nato it's caution. i count on turkey to act with restraints. and sure that the action it may take in northern syria is proportionate aren't measured. we must cloak jeopardize the gains we have made together against other common enemy forces but the residents of northeast syria aren't counting on words to save them they're escaping the border towns by any means possible to some it's only been a few years since they fled from the advance of ai ass now they're back on the road with no clear destination. let's go back to istanbul where dorian jones is standing by dorian how is the government's military operation in syria being received by people in turkey. well i mean there is his cross

party support for the operation with the notable exception of turkey's pro-competition party all the main parties are supporting it they voted a motion that sanctioned this operation earlier this week and the media which is directly or directly under the control of the government has been putting forward a nationalist drive saying that this is an operation to defend the future of turkey we've seen journalists screaming and applauding our air strikes across the border and that gives you an idea that the kind of media coverage of the moment but the same time there is a crackdown on anyone that is voicing any criticism its operation has been a number of our arrests of people posting on social media opposition all raising concerns and there has been the arrest of a prominent editor of the internet part of turkey's independent big newspaper he too has been detained for comments made on the web pages criticizing this operation so it does give a sign that the government is or is concerned

a possible growing opposition and they determined to silence it before it emerges. and dorian this operation started after the u.s. announced a pullout from syria so how is turkey's offensive affecting their relations with the u.s. . well i think this is a really key part of the future of this operation in fact it was president trump who affectively gates a green light to this operation. but since then there is growing pushback in washington we have senators now proposing legislation to sanction turkey very wide ranging sanctions could have economic implications and also defense implications for turkey on top of that they will be nervous trump could possibly step back and he has warned that if turkey goes too far he would obliterate the economy so there is concerns i think in washington over what stance it will take given the growing blowback and a key point of this also is currently the u.s. military are controlling the airspace above this operation and the present heard

one has to hit out saying that the americans have no right to interfere in turkey's operation and if. the syrian kurdish militia on the ground are calling for a no fly zone what washington does there could also be a key factor in determining the future of operation dorrian one more quickly what can we expect from the big players in the region like russia and iran all the other they are very important to in fact russia has been calling for a diplomatic solution and also the terror on another major player as opposes operation there very nervous city of turkey carries on and stays permanently this could be a major destabilizing effect and support of president bashar assad who are right before iran and moscow are backing his plan to take complete control of his country again so they too are key players at the moment there they are voicing most of their concerns the it's believed behind the scenes but that may change as operation unfolds that story. thank you. in ecuador one indigenous protester

has died in clashes with riot police in the capital kitchell the violence follows days of protests against cuts to feel subsidies and that will stare at the measures the government has declared a state of emergency and nearly 700 people have been arrested. chaos on the streets anti-government demonstrators led by indigenous groups poured into quito city center fire and fury in opposition to the government's austerity measures. police struggle to disperse them using tear gas the city paralyzed for hours amidst the clashes. this is the fight of the people who are unhappy with the measures the government has passed we will not stop all protest until this bill is revote. to work with.

despite the anger on the streets the government isn't willing to drop its unpopular economic reforms but it has been embarking on a charm offensive it's now meeting with protest leaders who represent demonstrators from the country's poor indigenous communities. from my point of view dialogue with indigenous people is showing positive results we hope that it will be concluded soon to the benefit of all but no deal is insight to end ecuador's political crisis the government has already left town and life in quito is overshadowed by the unrest. now to some of the other stories making news around the world but he's seen on tour as have 5 tear gas at protesters demanding the resignation of president one orlando and then days the protest was sparked by claims by u.s. prosecutors they allege the conservative president took millions in bribes from drug traffickers hence all the heat and eyes the allegations. every
