as facades of fashion houses. luxury. stores no membership d.w. . this is d w news coming to you live from berlin the leader of the islamic state is dead but his extreme ideology is not. daddy died in a raid by u.s. special forces on his hideout in northwestern syria according to president. but it's unlikely to mean the end of the so-called islamic state also coming up germany's far right party surges forward in a state election it's

a bruising defeat for chancellor merkel's party knocked into 3rd place and are back on top of the buddhist league after a win against frankfurt could do full speed the team to break by munich stranglehold on german football. hello i'm terry martin welcome to the program world leaders have welcomed u.s. president all trumps announcement that the leader of the so-called islamic state. was killed in a raid by u.s. special forces in syria trump said baghdadi blew himself up as u.s. troops stormed his hideout but satisfaction at the death of baghdad he has been tempered with several leaders cautioning that although isis as leader may be dead slowly state continues to pose a threat. so far for me it's 90 for iraq and so close to turkey need the village

operation in series know the province of the world's most wanted man met his demise leave the remains of the i.s.i. fast in which i'll be back i'll back out he spent his last i hey much of his family plus plus followers died during the u.s. special forces operation. of my house and saw a helicopter in front of me no more than 15 meters in the air and another one right behind it there were no shots fired at 1st and then suddenly there was gunfire and the helicopter began firing back. by visiting the operation from the white house situation room with donald trump and he's top military commanders in the dramatic address the u.s. president said back that he had died quite like a dog blowing himself and his children up he ignited his vest killing himself and the 3 children his body was mutilated by the blast test results

gave certain immediate and totally positive identification now back at his demise is a further blow to the so-called islamic state and once control the territory the size of britain now the man who proclaimed a state and the land itself of both being lost but the terror group left behind thousands of victims and shattered lives the city in which al baghdadi proclaimed his calaf that most so he's now torn asunder. his tent is a fraction of the sins and misdeeds wrought on the victims who lost their lives in the old city area. here their bodies are still under the rubble one because of him and his organization. and this fight isn't over hours after al baghdadi death was announced a joint kurdish u.s. operation targeted an icebox man the man considered

a potential future leader of the group he's also reported dead but even now over 10000 eyes militants reminder to plot jihad and vengeance. all for some analysis now let's bring in gator steinberg his from the german institute for international a security fares a think tank here good to see you how important was baghdadi for isis and what impact will his death have on this terrorist group he was very important to let the organization since 2010 and when he took over the organization did have less than a 1000 fighters and 4 years later he has found that a quasi state in iraq in syria it would be very hard to find a replacement for him in the coming months and is do you think it's going to weaken isis yes yes a little bit they will have trouble to find someone who qualifies as cayle if they

will have trouble to find someone who is as ruthless well organized and ideologically motivated as he was so it weakens the organization but of course it is still there not only in iraq in syria but all over these i mean where of the president is clearly proud of the fact that u.s. special forces killed he or that he blew himself up when they were approaching do you think that the killing will have an effect on how american policy is executed in the middle east in fighting jihadi. things so i think we see an ministration that is committed to the fight against the jihad is but it's an administration that is also committed to a withdrawal not only from syria but from the region in order to reorient its. it's strengths towards asia so that means that with severely weakened the fight against terrorism in the region so you don't see this as softening the u.s.

stance and in fighting terrorism in the middle east because drop us a want to bring troops home and all of that narrative i think that's problematic and we already see that in syria and we heard yesterday that the american government was or that the military was in kind of a rush because of the withdrawal in syria that with severely weakened the fight against terrorism that it is and it would pose a problem for the europeans who theoretically would have to take over because what is happening in syria and in turkey is directly affecting us not the u.s. this killing did take place in northern syria where global and regional powers are flexing their muscles right now time to russia and turkey other countries to do you see any prospects for stability returning to this region any time soon not any time soon money it's clear that. assad has won the civil war but it will take

a while until he'll be able to regain control of the country i think the civil war will go on for for several years from now on and i says will still be a factor in this war just quickly do you think there is a risk that isis could try to avenge the death of its leader by carrying up to more terrorist attacks definitely has been the threat of ises attacks in recent months and years and it and it remains i think i think one actor is infallible and that's the kurds because now we know that the strike originated in abuja. he didn't think it so much from the german institute for international and security affairs here in berlin. now some of the other stories making news around the world today in argentina center left candidate have biotope in and is has won the country's presidential election in the 1st round but almost all votes counted fernandas has portie 8 percent giving him an outright victory over the incumbent mockery the

with the rise off the f.t. and it is yet another proof that those times with a big party like america c.d.u. the conservatives or the social democrats the s.p.d. there were times when they were able to form stable coalition governments was just one small part now but these times over and as you have sacked the c.d.u. m.p.'s would you both have the last message for the here in the state elections that is of course another blow to the grand coalition in berlin quite a few people especially within the s.p.d. have been very critical about this grand coalition from the beginning and they have now even more reason to be critical. in the bonus liam i think held on to their spot at the top of the table after they came out victorious in a thrilling game against frankfurt the polls bounce back from

a couple of corners later the british driver came out. that scrap the better and the same could be said of the pit stops after slicing through the field with seemingly lists or effort hamilton went in for his tires early so he could get ahead of the ferrari's after that stops that strategy cooked up by the miss a the steam works and it was helped in part by some mistakes in the ferrari carriage then leader charlotte clare had already made one stop when this happens a problem putting on his rear tire i think they knew they'd blown it and it was then just left to hamilton to nurse his car over the line. a well earned victory for him in mexico i am incredibly humbled by today's opportunity and for the car pulled together as it did in the teams being so sufficient and executed the best ravaging. the 6 world title will have to wait for now but it surely just
