found dead when backup arrived. police looking for evidence. the lethal shots were fired here on this county road early on monday morning. the 2 police officers, a 24 year old police officer training, and a 29 year old colleague managed to place an emergency call. but additional officers who rushed to the scene came too late. if i can control it from a police officer's point of view, roadside checks are among the most dangerous situations. you can't know what you're about to get into. you don't know who's in the vehicle, what's in the vehicle, what items you'd find there? and how will the person who is being checked, react, and that that was probably also the case here of out of his son, police have started a big man hunt for the culprits, not only and ryan and palatinate, but also in the neighboring sar region. it's unclear who the culprits are and which direction they took to flee. the authorities assumed that several perpetrators are on the loose, at least one of them, carrying a weapon. a switched indigo inman as,

as the interior minister of the state and the superior of the regional police, and as a father of 4 children, the same age as the 2 police officers who were killed with utmost brutality and deeply shot yosemite beyond the rhineland, platen, a police, together with their colleagues from the czar region, are working urgently, and i hope you understand i won't comment on an investigation that's ongoing. the aside, the saga, the other. the deed also shocked the federal government in berlin, said to spokesperson for the federal interior minister reading out her statement. we nothing changed our form independently of what motivated this deed taught at. you know, it resembles an execution i. it demonstrates that police officers risk their lives for us on the job every day. my thoughts on the weekends, families, colleagues, and friends, we will do everything we can to hold the perpetrators accountable, have it in my van shop,

the interior minister of round and palatinate. that will give him all the support he needs for rapid arrests and investigations. police have edge drivers not to pick up hitchhikers and have asked the population to help in finding the perpetrators as go straight to d. w reporter jato vapor, who's at the scene are welcome, yasser. what more can you tell us? well actually at 420 p, i am in the morning, we had this routine check. he unders district road 22 right behind me. it's still blocked, still close by the police officers. and there is a manhunt under underway as we have heard. and right now there are lot of information out there. a lot of rumors we have to say as well. there was this one, a report on a suspect carrying a gun bird. i spoke to a police person a spokesperson some minutes ago, and he confirmed that there are no information available about this suspect. so we

don't know how many a suspects have committed this, sir. this crime this morning and not involved direction they flew and we don't know have, and we don't have any information about the car or a weapon they are carrying. so right now the information is quite thin. we just know that there is still investigations going on on this rule road right behind me . ok. so that the 2 officers involved were, were shot dead and what's being said about whether they had drawn their weapons and there are report said to one police officer has even emptied the whole weapon. he adds with him that as well. this information couldn't be confirmed by the spokesperson i, i talk to what we earn know now is dead one police officer, the mail police officer, 29 years old, was still living when the other police colleagues arrived at the crime scene. but unfortunately, a cozy of that out, he died as well, and his female

a trainee officer was already dad when the colleagues arrived here at the district road number 22. okay, clearly a serious incident. we have police from 2 states and the federal government involved here. police in germany are routinely armed. and is this an unusual there incident in germany? it's absolutely unusual as we don't have so many weapons in germany here at it because the laws on weapons and carrying a weapon are quite strict in germany. this is an unusual situation in germany and even that we don't know anything about the suspect or the suspect is quite unusual because it normally the, the information given by the police are quite precise. right now after feeling that they keep on. yeah. investigating that therefore we don't know everything on the cry of the crime scene right now. and the suspects. yeah. are still out there maybe

in this area of a western germany and an island palatine or in the silent there, there is the investigation still going on. so we have to follow the news and uh yeah, we will get back to you if we have new information. thank you. your shirt yashira vega, the insecurity councils meeting to discuss russia's military build up along its border with ukraine for the 1st time meeting. we'll see a rush as un ambassador lined up against his west and counterparts. meanwhile, lawmakers in the united states preparing further sanctions against the kremlin. if it launches an attack on its neighbour in ukraine, civilians and are being trained to fight and to use weapons authority say about a 100000 people have already received military trading over recent years. and that's in preparation for a potential russian attack or more recruits means a need for more weapons,

but germany is upset. it's nato allies by refusing to send arms to ukraine by then says the export of lethal weapons to the region could increase tensions. russian fighter jets in eastern europe, moscow's military build up on ukraine's border. has he f desperate to arm it's defense forces? ukraine has us germany for support, but has met reluctance from the new coalition government. while berlin has approved the delivery of 5000 helmets. it said no to leave, the weapons is good, but i did at one mit. that was right now we're trying to engage russia and diplomatic talks to avert a war in the middle of europe. i believe supply weapons would send the complete run signal. it would not lead to an easing of diplomatic tensions by long as it does. one con, the german government is still deciding whether nato ally, estonia, continue, crane, heavy artillery made in the former east germany berlins policy not to export lethal weapons to conflict regions is backed by the greens,

because in that lodge launched it. of course, it's a central question, is it possible to be tough and engage in dialogue with russia and deliver weapons? i'd say no, and that's why our policy is the right one alone with our night under subs in mc in august. if have asthma, that policy for now doesn't include a stop to the nodes stream to pipeline. but if russia does attack ukraine, chancellor olive salt isn't ruling out painful sanctions as get more d w corresponding on a salad in washington, a welcome oliver. this meeting of basically council has been called by the u. s. what do they hope to get out of? it will feel clearly the united states want to put the topic on the world stage and to raise more awareness for the ongoing conflict that's already all over the news, of course a but at the united nations security council, the goal is to raise pressure on russia and it really is going to be a fight for the public opinion. we're going to see later today, although it's very unlikely that we're seeing any formal action resulting out of

that meeting or even a resolution. russia has veto, right? so they're in a very comfortable in a very strong position. also, china has already announced support for russia, but the united states want to use the security council as a forum to press russia hard on the topic of truth filled up the ukrainian border. busy with the ultimate goal to gain momentum of for the ongoing diplomatic effort. now ukraine isn't a member of the security council, but it will take part in today's meeting. so this could be a chance for direct diplomacy between russia and ukraine. also wins 1st and foremost that we're in for a very controversial debate because there are all conflict parties involved. it's the 1st time the security council gets together on the topic and we already got a little taste of the rhetoric we're going to hear there, the u. s ambassador to the united nations when the thomas greenfield said russia has a clear threat to the international peace and security. so we've, we've heard that rhetoric already, but then russia countering calling that security council meeting

a shameful p r stand. and then the russian delegate, you mentioned, will also speak, so we're going to hear all conflict parties. however, that will be largely symbolic, right? the u. s. i already has sanctions against russia in place. what else of a considering now? yeah, the u. s. and the western partners of course, the european union also has sanctions in place. and they were put in place back in 2014 after the russian annexation of crimea considered ineffective by some. and so of course, the west is threatening with a new level of sanctions that are reaching from economic boy cards to cutting off russian bangs from the international financial grid to even personal sanctions against plotting putin, which has been considered a taboo in former years. but in any way, so those new set of sanctions that are rendered, some of the toughest sanctions that have ever been imposed against a country would hurt the russian economy. it will also probably hurt the world

economy. therefore, there's a lot of criticism, of course, also saying that that those sanctions would, would of course, also support vladimir putin narrative. ok, thank you for that element of a salad in washington is quick round up of some more news making headlines around the world will start in brazil where at least 21 people have died following heavy, landslides and rains. are that landslides and flooding in the state of south paolo destroy the homes of hundreds of families. states government has authorized emergency aid from affected areas. 0 has been experienced. torrential rain and heavy flooding since december. powerful storm that swept through parts of europe over the weekend has killed at least 5 people. analysis were reported in the u. k. denmark, germany, poland, and the czech republic. many areas bolt bordering the baltic. north seas reported flooding. there's been called north korea's more significant weapons test for years

. pyongyang has confirmed the launch of a miss savage says can reach us bases in the pacific. north korean state media says the weapon is a why song, 12 intermediate range, ballistic missile capable of hitting the u. s territory guam with a nuclear warhead. it's a 1st time since 2017 that north korea has tested. a missile of this size report said pictures of the earth were taken in space from the missiles. knows cone flight was 1st detected by neighboring south korea and japan, which was condemned. the missile test grandmother, not done door beside it or not because of that, a series of actions by north korea, including the repeated launches of ballistic missiles, threatened the peace and security of japan, the region, and the international community on a little, okay. such intense ballistic missile launches are in violation of relevant security council resolutions. and our country has made a strong protest to north korea date in june. the call your dash semester. miss

southwest comes as western diplomats negotiate to prevent possible russian invasion, a few crane and with relations with china. there was for years. so as north korea taking advantage of white attentions in the international community, the w put that question to just smith, senior correspondent with the voice news agency in. so north korea appears to be testing the limits of what you can get away with at this point. it's heavily sanctioned already and it looks around the world, as you said, most of the major players are distracted elsewhere. the beijing olympics are coming up. and of course, washington is looking elsewhere. so they may see this as a time to make more progress on these weapons, perhaps with less repercussions. and they may have had not well by and, you know, more than a 1000 african refugees living as they wait for the united states to process asylum

applications. washington has promised them visas and permanent homes once the process has been completed. but after months of waiting in the eastern european country, many afghans in albania and i'm growing concerned that there might be stuck there. the w corresponding to funny for shot reports from the town of change in another day of the andreotti coast of albini. i. d number 140 for alias nav, and dish. the 29 year old flat from afghanistan after the taliban to control in august. last year, elliot is a journalist, a job risky to keep under the taliban. his thoughts here, revolver on his sister's left, behind, forced to leave school. it's very hard to love to hear that your sister is asking for education and you don't have ah power or a possibility for her to to to respond hair idiocy,

thankful to be safe. but his own future is also uncertain. a life of being in limbo . he says, there is no way to go back in the way to go for the 3rd. are that you are stuck in one place for the last 5 months silly us and about 1500 under african refugees have been staying in this hotel complex in change in a tourist resort. they were told it's temporary until they are vetted for a u. s visa, this wrap leak of the statue of liberty had been erected at the hotel by albanians . the us as a patron of stability. that's the image. many locals have. this has been here long before the hundreds of african refugees who arrived at this hotel. some of them have told me that the statue has begun to feel like a whole a promise, as they wait out, the vetting process. he us wants to keep busy. he turned the casino room of the

hotel into a makeshift newsroom with utter exiled john o'neill once they're gone. informed the world about afghanistan as the world's attention is shifting. it's very important to continue our work. it's our responsibility. it's our commitment to us a journalist, to that paper. he's the online editor in chief for the at electron newspaper. one of the most read daily in afghanistan, the print no longer exists. the team here wants to keep it alive on line with colleagues stealing. cobble. the work distract from their worries about their future. i don't know about my future at that. what will happen? because we don't know when we leave albania, some here want to stay anonymous, fearing repercussions for their families back home. all of them want to know when will they move on? albania, interior ministry says that's difficult to answer,

but it seems that the united states may no longer be their final destination. no, from the one we will have meetings this month. with the canadian government, they are interested in taking a lot of atkinson, but we are also prepared for them to stay in albania, elia, and all the honor african refugees hope they will not be forgotten as time goes on, after all, albania was only supposed to be a transit country or soccer is closer river costs. rena. sir john, who's a professor in the global governance politics and security american university in washington. welcome to date every professor. so we have all the v, some thousands of afghans around the world, still waiting to be evacuated, to tune the u. s. a. what do you think is holding up the process? it's a complicated question. a bottom, the challenge has been the evacuation process was halted early december because of tensions between the government and the bond regime and got are,

has been one of the most important transit points for the evacuation flights. and so the halting for 2 months has obviously added to the backlog of the challenge with regard to the evacuation that had been going on in the context of the u. s. hasty withdrawal in the fall of 2021. so that is one of the main reasons that has obviously intensified the challenges and the grievances and concerns about consul stranded in transit countries. and now the u. s. evacuation plans are set to renew and if that happens and it happens smoothly, it is estimated that about 2000 afghans maybe back rated every month in the coming days. but that, of course is package of a broader challenge in terms of different kinds of issues that have emerged in the

context of border closures in terms of being able to get the kind of people were and of course vetting questions that still continue with regard to the are guiding back. right. so that's, that's a lot of things that have to line up just rights in order for this to happen. well, for these people, perhaps a word about those afghans was already made it to be yes to the rest. what have you heard about them and their ability to settle that the united states army now what has been deemed to be the largest evacuation of for refugees since the fall of saigon aware 125000 vietnamese refugees where air lifted out and the 1970 s, and so this would have been the 2nd one and it came under what was known as after operation allies. welcome. and it comprises of about 150 different initiatives

including some led by u. s. veterans trying to assist in the evacuation process about 75. * 1000, the numbers are still a little fluid, but about 75000, i'm happy back to the united states. and even within that, they were all kept in different military bases across the united states. the majority of them have been released there still about anything between 800-9000 perhaps even 10000. and i've got ready still remaining in the basis for those who have been released from the united states military bases in the, you know, in the country. there is a very structured, a system that has been set up as a result of the refugee settlement program. and you know, i'm happy to talk about that a little more in terms of how it was largely hollowed out during the trump adding it to revamp very quickly. and then it's working with our gun initiatives on the

ground along with local initiatives in order to provide the immediate assistance that a lot of these are gone refugees. so as you said, it's a complicated picture, but it's starting to sort of work. we'll have to leave it there professor, thank you so much. feel inside professor touchscreen, a judge from the american university in washington. thank you. thank you. that the united kingdom, where the british government has published a long awaited report about parties, allegedly held at prime minister barak johnson's official residence during the you case, covey 19 lockdown. the investigation led by senior civil servant, su gray looked into more than a dozen gatherings. some of which the report concludes should not have been allowed to take place. the document was made public in a revised version at the request of police in london, who conducting a separate criminal investigation, was great, says that the reductions mean she was not able to provide a meaningful account report accuses parts of 10 downing street of displaying

a failure of leadership and judgment and says that behavior surrounding the gatherings is difficult to justify or is johnson will address parliament about those findings shortly receive. i hope i will do exactly what i say. well, let's see what else we found out about this. so grade report with the w correspondence charlotte chelsea pill in london. welcome charlotte, i'm or what else are you hearing about the main points of the so great report. so this report reads of british public has been waiting for weeks to get our hands on to truly understand the nature of this long line of alleged gatherings that took place while the british public was under coded restrictions. and now indeed, it has just been released as you've made clear, this is essentially a watered down version of what we were 1st hoping to see, which was meant to outline the nature of these gatherings, attendance and so on. we don't have any of that in line with police requests for

minimal details to be included on the gatherings that they themselves are investigating. so it is a, a p to down version. that doesn't mean though that it doesn't still pack a punch. there are a number of incredibly difficult statements for prime minister boris johnson. and he looking at the culture within that number 10, the culture that he led and the nature of the behavior that went on. you mentioned just a few of those, a statement that a c gray, the civil 70 run this internal report saying very clearly that some of the behavior surrounding these gatherings is difficult to justify. she said, these are phase of leadership and judgment by different parts of number 10 at different times. some of these gatherings should not have been allowed to take place or develop in the way that they did. now she did not say, conclusively whether or not they broke the rules, but it's very clear that she believes some should not have taken place a most did not name the prime minister directly. this is the man who is responsible

for the culture in number 10, the coach should lead to these alleged gathering that he will face very serious questions in parliament in a short time. right? the house being widespread anger amongst public, amongst opposition, politicians on the monks, mister johnson's own party con, hey, suffice. last the key question that she had been a huge amounts of momentum as we were waiting for this report, building up expectations that members of his own party were going to trigger a vote of no confidence. many was saying that they were waiting for the results of this report, essentially, to give them a moment to gather behind those who are critical of him in order to launch a vote of no confidence that momentum has been dying down. gradually it is not very clear that moment whether or not this will be the moment that those who are critical of him with will decide to act or whether or not they will wait for the findings of the police investigation which will very clearly state whether or not

they believe that there has been any criminal wrongdoing throughout this. what is clear that there is a significant amount of anger in this report certainly does pack more of a punch than many have been expecting. i can without charlotte shall some pill in london at a football and transfer news from germany to bundis legal striker max cruiser has completed a surprise move from high flying union. ballin to strugglers vall, spoke cruiser, had become a fun favorite at young since joining back in the summer of 2020 and had recently played a crucial role in carrying the club up to 4th. in the buddhist league, however, he completed a 5000000 euro move back to vall spoke on sunday. the team had previously claim for actually $21516.00 cine volkswagen currently down in 14th in the bonus league table . is reminder of our top stories at base. our police in southwestern, germany searching for suspects after 2 police officers were killed near the city of
