so good. malaria must die. so millions can live the news . this is the w news lived from berlin, germany admits, for the 1st time that it is committed genocide during its colonial rule of num, maybe up to 80000 hero and nama people will find german imperial forces over 100 years ago. the government is ready to apologize and start the 1000000000 euro development fun. but not everyone's happy. also on the program,

france and germany pledge more than 500000000 euros to help african nations run pop vaccinations in the fight against the corona. but i was laid out, turns to rush up as a port in it's show down with the european union. i found a look a saying because says use our interest over the false landing, opened across as the stabilizing his country. on a 30 year old family business destroyed over nuts. we were told from an israeli town where this month flare up in the conflict with hamas, a stove violence between communities. ah, i'm gab, else has been to view as on p b s in the united states and to all of you around the world. welcome to the program . germany has acknowledged for the 1st time that it's committed, genocide,

doing its colonial rule and what is now and it may be in southern africa, german troops massacres. tens of thousands of hero and nama people at the stars of the 20th century. berlin is to apologize and fund projects and may be worth more than a 1000000000 euros. protest gathered outside the german embassy in the maybe they wanted to know where the funds the germany has pledged will end up. and whether they'll benefit the descendants of the hero and mama, who suffered terrible atrocities on the german colonial rule. we at the decent must be said, i will be how much from the government. at the beginning of the 20th century german imperial troops force terreros at nama into slavery, and seize their land. between 19 o 49, no 8. tens of thousands were brutally murdered. after 5 years of negotiations between the german and the movie and government now

a formal acknowledgment besides the whole day, we are officially calling these events what they are a genocide. we thereby also acknowledge our historical responsibility. and in the light of this historical and tomorrow responsibility on the part of germany, we will ask namibia and the descendants of the victim for forgiveness did not come . the opera forgive them bitten the german government, pledged 1100000000 years for maybe a for infrastructure projects, health services, an education program. but the german position is also calling for the concerns of the nama and terror. people to be heard. let's move to when the german government needs to make sure that all effective ethnic groups have a say and how the funds are spend, which together become german politician. say the agreement is important for german society to me. lucas there. i'm had a feel. it's very important that what happened between 9 know, 4 and 9,

no age crimes. germany committed a present in the public consciousness here in germany and endorsement via him. the german government said that today's announcement was not the end of the story. well, the german government is clear that the 1100000000 euros are not to be understood as reparations or compensation. earlier we spoke to joshua crazy akins, a political scientist at the university of castle and asked him why that distinction is so important. while i think the german government still afraid of the legal ramifications of a full recognition of the genocide. and this is why we heard from mister moss, you know, using this language of saying that, you know, it would today be considered the genocide. here again, we have you unprecedented as a dub and declaration that germany sign saying that mosse atrocities and crimes against humanity committed during colonialism should have counted as such at all

times. so, germany is actually renew it. i mean, you know, falling behind its own standards here precisely because of the fear that legal action could be taken, which could lead to further reparations. now of course, it's clear that so called development assistance can not be classified as reparation to any shape or form. simply because there are conditions that come with this money. and of course, if you say, you know, the wrong has been committed and he has recompense. conditions can never be attached to such money. and so therefore, it's of course, correct to say that such money is not reparations, but it's also disingenuous to connect us money in any shape or form to some kind of recognition of the genocide which again is incomplete as we speak time now to look at some of the other news making headlines around the world. hundreds of thousands of people in the democrats republic of congo need help after fleeing and

active volcano authorities of order the possible evacuation of the eastern city of goma scientists, the warning of what they call, potentially catastrophic eruption. 3 police officers have been wounded in a suburb of the front. french city of not a female officer was stopped and 2 others shot before the attack. that himself was killed in a shootout with police authorities say the suspect suffered from mental illness and was on a radical islamist watch list. turkish president dresser type add on us . it's a new mosque on is symbols, landmark tax and square mosque has been a long time goal of ad. once critics a see the construction as part of his bid to further erode the turkeys secularist values. supporters argue that weren't enough muslim places of worship and assemble, france and germany, promising to invest more than 500000000 euros to help african countries kickstart

corona virus vaccinations. many african nations struggling to secure vaccines on the global market. and south africa is entering a 3rd wave of infections correspondent increase reports from dub, and it looks like the arrival of ahead of states. but it is actually just the delivery of $300.00 vaccine doses to an inoculation site. and durbin hundreds of eligible senior citizens over the age of 60 has been waiting since morning. i'm not happy at all because most of them has lost their lives. so that is how you came here. so there to get stuff needed for that and prevented. i think we're all very excited about least getting into the into lawn. yeah. and getting an oven done with and then we can get on with our lives again. less than 2 percent of south africans have received in jap so far. not even 1000000 people. many south africans are not happy about this low roll out of the vaccination program,

but the government says they simply cannot get their supplies earlier because of the massive global demand. and also because many industrialized countries secured themselves huge quantities of vaccines, south africa has ordered 16 for 75 percent of its population, but only a fraction of that has arrived in the country. this is why french president emanuel mcclung and german health minister in span of visiting south africa to support technology transfer and the establishment of regional manufacturing centers. friends committed up to 500000000 euros. germany will invest up to 50000000. we are very keen to support and cooperate in this area with other countries around the world. we think it is very important that we can make it possible that everyone on the world that wants to be vaccinated can get vaccinated to be on the safe. when everyone is safe, if an opportunity south africa has been a leading voice,

speaking out against lack of mixing access for poor countries and demanding and intellectual property waiver for covert nike vaccine. and on this we are not going to retreat. because for us to retreat means that we say our people's lives are not worth much the lives of our people with a great deal. and we do this because we want to save our people's life. and we therefore wait to continue insisting that this wave i should be there so far, not a single vaccine is produced in south africa from scratch. only one covered in 1916 as partly manufactured here, filled in vials and distribute it. experts say it will take a long time to create the necessary capacity time, but south africa doesn't have infection. rates have been increasing in the past days. the country is going into a 3rd wave, and people who are under the age of 60, still not sure when they will be able to get inoculated. while european met

insurgency has approved a covert 19 vaccine for children. the m a says the biotech pfizer vaccine is safe for young people, aged 1215 and highly effective. germany has said it will start offering the box into children early next month. other countries like the u. s. and canada already and oxalate in children from the age of 12. so what's behind this decision of the m a w process corresponding barbara jason'll send us this assessment now and of course the european medicines agency has looked at the clinical data that were provided by pfizer biotech. there was a big clinical study big in this context means about 2000 adolescents and they didn't have a single case of infection. so they came to the result. they said the that's really is 100 percent effective in this young age group. and they also didn't find any

noticeable side effects. so the may said it's safe for teenagers to use. and you can follow the example of the united states and some other countries that are already doing this. and so now it is up to the member states of the european union, and of course, up to the individual parents to decide whether they want this for the children or not. there were some politicians in brussels who had really and some health experts here who had really pushed for this decision to come as quickly as possible because they say who this is really important for is the young people, teenagers with certain underlying conditions for instance, was down syndrome are some respiratory illnesses that predisposed them in a really dangerous way to get over it and to get very severely ill from cove it. and so particularly decision decision was sort of geared towards them. but of course, many, many than the countries already have been waiting for, and one to be ready to go very soon. our correspondent barbara hazel before him

from brussels. them. now let's take a look at some of the other developments in the global pandemic. malaysia is to impose in the total locked down for 2 weeks, infection south in rising mass and celebrations for the muslim festival of the ede . india has reported its lowest daily number of new cases in more than a month. critics was not the official figures are still far lower than the actual number of infections and deaths. and japan has extended a state of emergency and grades of tokyo to june 20th. that's just a month before the plan starts of the summer lympics. but i was president, alexander lucas shank, i had told a russia letting me put in that the west is trying to destabilize this country. the 2 leaders have been holding talks following last weeks for the landing of a commercial flight of about a better rose prominent dissidence was arrested, sparking international outcry and sanctions. central says he has proof. the

european union wants to quote to rock the boat in bel air we spoke to moscow, corresponded emily sherman now asked her about this show of unity between the 2 leaders. yeah. today it almost seemed like they were portraying themselves as kind of close friends. they even said that they would go swimming after today's meeting . go swimming in the black sea, but actually their relationship has been rather fraught over the last few years. it's just that the 2 leaders are increasingly isolated, both of them, i think, on the international stage, but for putin because shank over the last few years have been it's been a really difficult ally in many ways. first of all, lucas shank has been playing off the e u and russia against each other and sort of acting pretending to at least act as an intermediary between the 2. which i think would have angered puts and also lucas

shank is increasingly it seems on predictable. we saw that this week with this plane landing, and i think even the kremlin knows that with the huge protests that we saw in bella roof last year, lucas shank has lost a lot of his legitimacy at home. but the problem is that russia wants to avoid at all costs, kind of legitimizing street protests that could topple. you know, a leader a long time leader. that's just too close to home. so they've decided to really throw all their support behind. luca shan't go and i think that's what we're seeing in today's meeting as well. of course wanted emily sherman reported from last call that he was in the w news still to come much needed help for farmers in australia, dealing with a massively destructive play of much the 1st this month, flare up of violence between israel and moscow. still tensions and israeli cities

where jewish in our communities live side by side. the latest conflict has the neighbors in some places turn against each other. correspondence tonya cram ups. and this report from the ton of lot residents down now trying to pick up the pieces while the flames made their way quickly through the tire shop on the outskirts of loot. where he is still in shock. his father's family, business of 30 years, destroyed in just one night. the lawyer, i feel a sense of loss of being lost and we thank god we have our faith and we believe that god will restore our rights. and we hope that all will be rebuilt. it will be a period that will pass or fall football had motor and the flames didn't stop at his store. they also burned down a computer repair shop next door belonging to the father of us. but now the young

jewish israeli video game developer had spend a whole year creating a new stage of game. now it's all gone. both respect the shop was targeted by extremists from outside the city, but there is no evidence to before the riots. some young people came and looked around, checking out which businesses are jewish, and which are aramis section leaky these. and for me personally, it reminded me of terrible times in our jewish history. does it mean that quote, it hurts. it really hurts to see so much fire and hatred by machines as both a residence offload a town in the center of israel, which has seen some of the worst violence in decades between jewish, israeli, and our israeli citizens. the violence about that not just and luke, but also in many other like cities in israel, protests but also parent revenge attacks by arab and jewish mops. fueled by long

standing issues, but also recent tensions over jerusalem. israeli police responded forcefully. so we're here and you know there's only one way forward. there are in it together through a crowd funding campaign to hope to rebuild their livelihoods. the vari remains the names. yes, we're scared. i worry the jewish extremists are looking for me and will tag me as someone who cooperates with arrows as if that's a wrong thing to do. who lima v me. she is a q and ask met is also worried that he'll be singled up by his community. but enough is enough. we need to say what we think and not be scared. we don't really have a choice. we should give it much. of course, we also have the future looks uncertain here and across the country, violence within communities and israel has left everyone in shock. look at some of the other world news today. pope francis has ordered an inquiry
