all on the beach starts february 4th on d w. ah, ah ah ah ah, this is dw news live from berlin, a new diplomatic push german foreign minister analynn about voc holds, talks with her opposite number and lost out to try to diffuse tensions over ukraine

as fears grow of a russian invasion. also coming up the 1st image as begin to emerge of tonga after saturday's massive volcanic eruption. they show serious damage, but the full extent is still on no ships carrying supplies are still days away, dw reveals how athletes and other visitors at the upcoming olympic games in beijing could be at risk because of flaws in an app. china says they must download and another boon for the buddhist. like as by and mean extract, robert levin da skis, named thief, as best men's player for the 2nd year in a row. ah, i'm see me so much going to thank you for joining us. german foreign minister on alina burbock says, there is no turn it in 2 good relations between moscow and berlin. she was speaking,

it talks in the russian capital with her a counterpart, a lover of, among the topics on the agenda are the russian true build up on the ukranian border . and also fears that russia could invade its neighbor. burbock said they would be discussing a host of issues including ones that cast a shadow over their bilateral ties. and let's go right to moscow are correspond, emily, sherwin is following these talks for us today. hi, emily. this really is a difficult position for the german foreign minister. coming into these talks, you made clear, it is important for berlin and moscow to have a good relationship, a stable relationship, but also defend ukraine's interest at sovereignty. so tell us what to expect from these talks. why think, i'm not in a bad book today as really walking kind of a diplomatic tight rope. she just arrived here in russia from ukraine. and i think that actually heard her tone in the opening statements that we saw ahead of

a meeting with her russian counterparts who gave up ross was actually pretty warm. she talked about not only the strain that had been cast by international relations on, on, you know, on relationship on the relationship between germany and russia. but she actually talked about that relationship as a friendship. she talks about historical ties. and she also in ukraine pointedly avoided guarantees to ukraine, that there could be german arms deliveries, which i think would have been an issue that would have really caused a lot of upset here in russia. when it comes to concrete outcomes from these talks . i think it's kind of hard to say on the one hand, that book ahead of these talks has said that she would like to revive the normandy format. that's a format of piece, talks on tensions in ukraine, which involved germany, france, ukraine, and russia. and i think that could be something that russia would be open to love or off. the foreign ministry here spoke about that last week. but this is also

a 1st visit. and i think both sides are kind of feeling each other out, especially because ahead of her role as foreign minister. their book was kind of seen as someone who would be tough on russia. yes, she is there to gauge how willing russia is to engage in talks, but how much influence can germany and europe really have? well, on the one hand, i think there have always been good ties between germany and russia, including economic ties. and that's an important factor for russia, but russia has also made it pretty clear going into all of these talks that we saw last week on security guarantees with nato, with the u. s. with the o. s. c, europe, ian partners. as well. that essentially, they're only negotiating with the u. s. they issued their initial demands about stopping eastern expansion exclusively to the u. s. and they're demanding written guarantees. rather

a written response to their demands from the u. s. and from nato. so it almost seems like the e u is kind of watching from the sidelines, and that includes germany. while the foreign policy chief separate did say that a massive attack by russia, ukraine is not likely, but the block is still preparing sanctions for that. eventually ality. i mean, how has moscow been reacting to that while the threat of sanctions has become something that russians and russian politicians are almost used to and have become used to over the past few years. and i think it's kind of seen here as okay, well we're already under so many sanctions. what difference can, can a new round of sanctions actually make even though the threats of sanctions that we're seeing this time around from the u. s. and that you are rather harsh, including perhaps personal sanctions on president, letting me put in himself. but i think that the, that the russian side is kind of going into all of these talks in the past few

weeks, including the talks today with the upper hand. they have the military threat on the ukranian border firmly on the table, even though they are assuring the west that they aren't planning an attack. and they have this kind of blood a attitude towards the sanctions as well. i think it seems that they're just trying to see what they can get from the west. what kind of guarantees they can get from the west. and it doesn't seem that they're scared off too much for by the sanctions threat. d. w 's. emily? sure. when for us there in moscow, thanks for that reporting now to some other stories and making headlines around the world who the rebels and yemen have claimed responsibility for a drone strike and abu dhabi that killed at least 3 people. the united arab emirates vowed reprisals for the attack which targeted an oil refinery. but who these are at war with a military coalition in yemen that is backed by the you. metrics in sudan say

several protesters were shot dead, a demonstration against military cool leaders. thousands of people turned out for the largest of the protests in the capital cartoon. monday's rallies come ahead of a visit by a u. s. delegation. this week meant to revive efforts to return the country to civilian rule. a prominent mexican photo journalist has been killed outside his home in the northern border city. if you want to buy the rito martinez was known for his work covering, organized crime in the violence. plague city bordering the u. s. he is the 2nd journalist who had been murdered in mexico this year, one of the world's deadliest countries for reporters. north korean state media has released these images of the country's latest missile tests. the report said to tactical guided missiles hit an island target east of the korean peninsula. on monday, south korea said the missiles launched from near pyongyang international airport. the united nation says the pacific island nation of tango suffered significant

damage and saturdays volcanic eruption. the 1st images are starting to emerge after new zealand and australia sent surveillance plains to the area. communication has been limited after the countries only internet cable was cut. new zealand is also sending ships carrying water and other supplies. but planes cannot land because of a blanket of ash covering the main airports runway. they look like old sepia photographs. but it's because of a blanket of ash, which now covers everything in sight. on some of tongue is 169 islands in the south pacific. these images were captured by unusual and defense force reconnaissance flight. it's as close as outsiders concurrently get after a massive vo cannick eruption and soon ami hit tonga at the weekend.

satellite pictures show the capital nuku a loafer before the eruption and after the ashes, proving quite problematic. not just for a water and sanitation because tom collected water from the roofs of household. but in terms of access for the aid from a stroller, new zealand, and other flight of they need to clear the runway supplies are already on their way. you see linz h m, n st. as wellington is one of 2. royal navy ships heading towards tomba, with water supplies survey teams, and a helicopter. australia is also sending help, including humanitarian aid. with regular communication lines,

still down, tongue is almost cut off from the world. no one can be sure what they'll find when they get there. what more do we know about the situation on the ground and tango following those 1st surveillance flights? i asked shane cronan a balkan ologist from the university of oakland. yes, i think now a picture image of quite some damage certainly is tonight may have created quite a damage and they've been around 2 centimeters or bashful over the main inhabited island of tang topper and a similar amount of ash in the north. and on the positive side of the coins or that damage is not as much as we would have expected for such a logic explosion. and i think it's been quite lucky for the people of tonga, that a lot of the ash has actually fallen into the ocean. and in places where there aren't islands now,

not to undermine the seriousness of it because there are some places and target some low lying places where the c 9 me impact has been quite major to the corona, virus pandemic, as south africa was the 1st country to sound the alarm about the arm across variant . now the wave has passed and other countries are looking to learn from its experience. the data shows how the armor chron variant causes a spike in case numbers, because it is highly infectious. a lot more than previous corona virus, very, and so south africa's 4th wave you'll see her was a lot sharper, but also shorter and crucially, the armor cron wave has so far resulted in fewer deaths than previous waves. there were also fewer hospitalizations at this time around, as you can see here by this chart that has led some experts to conclude that armor chron is less dangerous, but others have warned that many cases may go unreported or undetected. so the real number of cases and deaths could be much higher there warning not to underestimate our micron as

a milder variant to day is an important day for the pillow. honey born in 2 years ago, financial problems and the pandemic forced him to close his bar and dressed rent in cape town, scale each eye township. but now he's fine in the re opening over. it does cost us a lot of things that we need to put your eggs and different buckskin and also you need to try and think outside the goals because i mean, for me, i don't cast a storm from whatever bed situation that, i mean, i only look for positive things that i can do, instead of complain. after nearly 2 years, most lockdown restrictions were lifted, including in that he could few tourists have once again been pouring into the country. they had been mass cancellations following the discovery of the army. crowd variant. life is slowly getting back to normal here in cape song was decreasing numbers in you cobra infections data from south africa suggests,

although all micron is much more infectious, the amount of people that were admitted to hospitals was much lower than during previous waves. many. yeah, hoping that we're seeing the beginning of the end of the pandemic. i always that i won't even. yeah. but the, the name holbert. that is what we're wishing for today and i see everyone is going i've been allowed collect thing going. i applied and we've been up to 90 now, and i hope that god is actually the final thing of this merit to see slash enjoyment. this actually happened as the i'm so happy that the business is booming . people to start making money out of officially open when last as these tyesha touch it with them business. i'm glad that we can get to come here and enjoy. many scientists also optimistic despite the low vaccination rate by religious dwarf gang

plaza says that many south africans had already and infected with the corona virus before the only true waste hospital data show that a prior corona, virus infection, or vaccination, provides protection against severe illness. also with the army from various women and i'm as if you are too nice to be here. dear tide will partridge allah's entered address tomorrow tom would again didn't. or if you get to a situation like this, where nearly every one has had it or has been vaccinated, then you can relax. of course, on the other hand, it is summer here, and the big school break took place over most of the 4th wife. vacation was shorter in europe. school is starting again, and it's winter when people spend much more time together indoors or the selfish winter will not be met. so those are considerable differences. that's why you can't just say we expect things to go like they have in south africa, dusty by todd wenzel aiden idea of oddness. a little iffy in a suit, africa, pies, or hopes that the pandemic could become endemic. as with other corona viruses,

if most of the population has a basic immunity from previous infection or vaccination, higgins to galati off no. does feel like america officials with the booster info at home. com. i still have hope that we can get around regular booster shots. i can well imagine that if everyone has basic immunity, possibly with a specific ami chron booster, and another variance doesn't come as a nasty surprise. then we can keep our immunity up by nature means via regularity. infections with a corona virus, and dusky dandridge. ag macy could be the effect on image beam cold of yours and units of zone. often i truly have eyes and advocacy in viewers early because no one wants to think about more mutations right now in the middle restaurant and bar. certainly not illness. he believes he already has big plans and wants to expands to other cities. he believes that the prospects was on africa once again.

ah, we can speak now too shabby mother. he's a professor of vaccine ology at with water sand university in johannesburg. thank you for joining us at now. you tweeted that south africa has reached a turning point in the pandemic. what did you mean by that? thank you for having me. so i think that's feeling sergeant, in the course of this wave, which was terminated by our micron, very much shows a deep coupling of infections i and severe disease and death su correctly to report that this time dawn, especially in the province, were trusting to ship the epicenter. busy of the, on the con, upgrade to halting robins, the number of hospitalizations that transpired was one 3rd compared to what transpired should into cause of adult, the radiant radio. and many of us hospital like they closed sessions. this time rom, actually, what they refer address incidentally, infections in that people were being admitted for other reasons. and were just

coincidentally, testing positive. but more striking was what counted to make the number of people that have died should. and of course, of this particular race in a hotel province, contribution to less than 5 percent of all of the cove at $900.00. that's that deaf transpired since the thought of the pandemic i. in contrast, the delta v agent way through toronto, easiest way contributed to 50 percent. all okay, the depth that has been spice and the thought of the been done mix in a complete decoupling of infections, severe disease and death. and that is despite the relatively low vaccination rate in south africa, if you look across africa only around 10 percent of people are fully vaccinated. so what do you think this i'm a chron, wave might mean for other african countries. yes, atheist, despite grady monassa vaccine covered a child, but unfortunately in ed for i didn't do what yes transpired in south africa and probably many. busy of the african countries is that a large percentage of the population he ever developed community and particularly

protection against the vietnamese and gets because of pos infection. so just prior to the onset of the army conway, when we had conducted the a cedar survey with decimal places in south boston where it gets full presence of antibody as a proxy of pot infection. we showed. busy that in this province and the same thing with applied to most other parts of the country. 70 percent of people at tech should have been infected. jordan, of course, are to for 3 raves. so the number of people that don't develop community against covert 19 in particular against severe disease and death, it's far higher than the number of people that are going. vaccinate that in settling, such as our own. and the same thing probably exists across the continent. ok, we're more than 3 quarters of population. busy there about of community through the course of pos infection. what about in countries where there are, where there's a high number of people who have been vaccinated to how worried do you think that they should be about this on microwave? but i would expect a similar sort of decoupling to materialize because it doesn't continue lives and

death calls into question out the value of vaccines. and i do believe that it seems, and as he has been shown, in fact, studied in studies from south african vaccines. these vaccines, if not performed, to rug in protecting against mildly future damage on the ground. but when it comes to protecting against have yet to see supplies of it seemed to johnson and johnson vaccine as examples. so conflict high levels of protection against the viet disease and death. so even in countries where they haven't been moto, i lots of infections in the falls, but rated right. i've seen companies, i want to anticipate the same sort of decoupling to materialize backs and ologist happy mothers speaking to us her to hon. osburg. thank you very much. for sharing your insights with us today. thank you. a new boca claim to have solved the lingering mystery in holocaust history. for decades, it was unclear who betrayed the amsterdam hiding place of teenager on a funk and her family to the nazis. the authors of the new book say their research

points to a surprise, suspect. her short life, one of millions, ended in the holocaust. german born school girl anna frank. for more than 2 years, the teenager lived with her family in attic rooms, hidden behind a bookcase and nazi occupied, amsterdam. keeping a diary of their ordeal until the family were discovered and sent to the bergen belsen concentration camp. now a research team think they've cracked the puzzle of who betrayed them. that way investigated about 30 more than 30 scenarios. and i think rick can say with quite a certainty that about 2928 of these scenarios are virtually impossible. the scenario said to the notary arnold from the birth are well known in amsterdam and it over lists of people in hiding and that's and on that list was the address. 263

principle that the home of the annex the team believes found and back who himself was jewish, disclose the frank hiding place to save his own family from deportation and murder . the director of the anna frank house museum says it's a fascinating hypothesis, but needs further investigation. well, i think what, what this new theory is bringing us is not just information about what has happened here in the 4th of august 9044, but very much also about the did the behavior of people, the choices they have made, decisions they have taken during a very difficult period of time. the mystery of who betrayed the frank family may never be definitively solved. but the research succeeds in highlighting the complexities of a dark chapter of history. thousands of athletes, officials and reporters travelling to china for the upcoming winter olympics risk

having their online communications hacked through the official for the event internet security researchers from the organization, citizen, lab and canada are also warning the app could even be used for censorship after they discover, discovered a list of banned words. chinese authorities have asked everyone taking part in the olympics to install the my 2022 out at least 2 weeks before traveling to beijing. it is aimed at tracking and tracing for corona virus, but also has a chat function and features like weather reports and check ins and venue. and d, w, internet security expert oliver lino has been looking through the investigation. he has more in this exclusive story forth. oliver tell us more about what citizen lab has discovered here. yeah, the, the ip has a secure way to learn a realty in the encrypted communication. so in detail, it is about the proper verification of it says l certificates. and because of this

weakness or heck hust can still more or less easily private data, for example, the passport data audio messages from the at the chat function that is included in the app. and, but also the huge data such as the explanation status of a can be leaked. and i understand there are also concerns about chinese authorities having access to the information that could be hacked here. so what exactly would authorities be looking for? yeah, maybe they, they look for for private communication, for example, they interested in and, but they have also included censorship list in this app. so there's a file that is called illegal words. and this has find out the citizen lip a day has not been able to find any evidence that they just as actively used in the app. but there are more than 2000 votes in chinese and,

and simplified and traditional correct us. and also in t beaten and in the we go and for example, you can find the word, the term you for who you koran. and i think the unfair question is, what such a list has to do with an ad for the olympic games? okay, so we're talking about a vulnerability in the app and this list of terms that could possibly be censored. i mean oliver, is this the pricing? we do know that china has hosted to previous olympics like in 2008. yeah, of course the china is the state of surveillance. this is known. it's a country of digital tend to censorship, or even the b, b, c and we w is blocked in the country on internet and why are satellite but this is in china and so the limbic game, so are in the bible. so it's a special area for, for the atlas and for,

for all the participants. and i think they don't expect such a surveillance there and, but this head isn't up, has find out is much more the so they find the vulnerable vulnerability that can be used from heck us from, from 3rd parties. and additionally, december ship list are, i got the impression that, that many of the participants are not very well prepared for this event in terms of digital safety and the citizen depth and research and g o has to come with such a research, which could probably be the job of national security auto do authorities or the national under the committee's d w. internet security expert oliver speaking to us. so thank you so much for that reporting. thank you. and we do have more details on their citizen lab investigation on our website d. w. dot com to sports now, and a buyer in munich strike are robert lemond ask has been named 5th as best men's
