10:02 am
a chest wound. the attacker who made no attempt to flee the scene, has been detained by authorities or japan's current prime minister from york. shita has confirmed that shins or abbe is in a very grave condition. he described the attack as barbaric with morning inara prefecture whom former prime minister, shinto arby, was shot and is currently in a serious condition or bus, which i'm told will model. he's currently being treated him intensive care to save his life. it was 1st late, more than anything else. i pray from the bottom of my heart that the former prime minister will survive a ema. well for more we can now talk to journalist sonya glasgow who's in the japanese capital tokyo sonya good to see you. so what we know about our base condition? well, so far and nothing really, really new, i'm afraid
10:03 am
a people are waiting in front of the hospital gathering there and his life is also i'm traveling there. and we still have the information that he has suffered a cardiac arrest. also the lines are stopped working and unfortunately it doesn't look good. okay, so you'll be keeping a us up to date on that. now the suspect has an already been arrested. he was arrested at the scene and what, what more do we know about him? apparently he was a member of the japanese self defense forces for a couple of years. i guess that's where he got in his training with weapons. and he's a 41 year old male from laura pictures. show him as a young man with short hair wearing a mask and looking very like a much younger man actually. and we saw him on pictures walking very slowly towards the former prime minister and then shooting at him off, maybe with a handmaids weapon. no,
10:04 am
she's on. so go ahead. there is to act. very importantly, and the motive has become apparent. he said that he was not content with obvious politics, and that's why he wanted to kill ok. well, am machines are of a actions are abbe left office at 2 years ago, but what was his role on the campaign trail ahead of these parliamentary elections on sunday? his voice still carries a lot of political weights in japan. he is the leader of the biggest faction within the liberal democratic party. so he was on the campaign trail to really fight for the other candidates in his party and was giving speeches all over the country. now, sonia shootings are very rare in japan, and i have shocked are the japanese public wit? what has happened in ira?
10:05 am
extremely shocked. it's really unheard of and extremely rare. usually an incident with guns happened here among the jak was on the mafia. for they've only been in the used to like 23 kind of comparable incidence. so this is really highly unusual, and a lot of people have been expressing how shop they are and praying for the the well being and, and the recovery of on sonya blanca in tokyo. thank you. you're welcome. international reaction has been coming in after the shooting of shins ave secretary of state antony blinking a spoken at the g. 20 in bali, indonesia. let's take a listen. i do have to say before with that we are by that is about the way we don't know.
10:06 am
we can shop our thoughts and prayers. his family was very, very sad, were waiting. russian president vladimir putin has warned that moscow's offensive in ukraine has barely begun. he also accused the west of fueling the war and said that its efforts to defeat him would bring tragedy to ukraine. he was speaking to parliamentary leaders. here's what he had to say. sure, you're my solution. we are hearing that they want to defeat us up with you on the battlefield. what can i say we discussed with let them try mosier more. we have often heard the wes wants us to fight it until the last ukrainian it, the threats a tragedy, the ukrainian people who but it looks like he's heading in that direction nor to those ones. but everybody should know that largely speaking. sure that we haven't
10:07 am
even yet started anything in honest 3 of them at the same time, we don't refuse peace talks, but those who refuse should no longer loss the more difficult it will be for them to make a deal with us slaves and you would send them vladimir perkins forces now dominate in eastern and southern cities in ukraine, such as harrison, back in june, the occupying administration announced a referendum on joining russia. but when this will take place is on the clear, many, harrison residents won't be around to vote. tens of thousands are believed to have left for ukrainian control territory since russia seized the city. reporting on the grant has become old, but impossible for independent western journalists. t w's new. com, these folk back to locals. folk with 2 locals, about life under occupation. now militia, at the beginning, we all thought the occupation would be over in a week. really. it was only a few months in that we finally understood that the russians were here to stay. it
10:08 am
looks very similar to what it. ready was in ranking, they do 5 into 4 as i was a little while you're in dawn, a red flag for hanging and it also very saw your plane with all my friends have left with the other generation is gone. only the pensioners have stayed here so many people in need right now and on. now the people are not able to get the money that they have when there comes a lot of beauty. elder people. ready are trying to get in there. awesome. so boston 1000 rural did as a b q to get to rush. so i think the early you sister goes and her uncle rommel by condition. there are some buzzword. i only heard about the plans for a referendum to join russia from the ukrainian press with that no one's talking about it here. so it also fine and dandy done. and
10:09 am
before it got fully, mildred vehicles, by in fact. so there are many places where, where ocoee jewelry, dorothy, and of course you don't hear about it manageable working left. i see also many authors on receives on facebook telling the other person is missing. when the russians came on, we were expecting things would be as bad as in mary, you, paul, messed up. no, we were scared to even look at the window. it was sheer panic was that the goal was about 5 years or damage. the fact that we can leave the house and buy food and we seems like a miracle or soldier. a baby girl was was. ready tried to guess if, if the russians are shooting or on the ukrainians are covering russians was they were selling if nothing changes,
10:10 am
i'll also end up leaving only my parents and my grandma that are keeping me here for now a day anyways, who did the graham's delivery the question is how and when, and we got to india it to become a marathon rather than a spin. russia's president's latimer person has warned that the war in ukraine is only just getting started. i asked dw correspondent nik spicer in keith. had that remark has been received in ukraine. there's not a lot of official reaction. a presidential adviser, reacted to put in a statement that western powers are ready to fight russia down to the last ukrainian by saying there are no western forces in ukraine. there are only russian army soldiers in this country. so not much of a reaction, but this we've been talking to people here. i'm standing outside of saint michael's monastery, which is an historic place in
10:11 am
a ukrainian capital. and i'm surrounded by vehicles which were destroyed by the ukrainian army. so russian tanks and armored, we asked people what they thought about putin statement. one man said something particularly interesting. he said, this is a message for the russian people so that they know that the conflict is ongoing, that russia is strong and washer, will conquered. in part, to make people forget how things went very poorly. in the beginning, when russia actually tried to take the capitol, including this monastery, all of the lands around it and failed and was and was repelled. and the 2nd part of the message, he said, and i think this is true, is, is a message to western powers at the bottom here, putin's resolve is in no way flagging. now the russians have eased off on their offensive in the don bye since capturing lucy chanced. why is that, nick? well, the official reason from the russians themselves is for an operational pause. i'm gonna ask my cameraman to pan to the left, to help explain the reasons for that operational pause or heavy heavy russian
10:12 am
losses inflicted in that race. the capital, an attempt to be conveyed essentially the entire country losses of many, many tanks, artillery units, and personnel. the battalion, tactical battalion groups that constitute the lego bricks, if you will, the russian army whirl broken up and there, reconstituting them putting men together, who are not you to fighting together and actually press ganging men in the occupied lu, hanser region into the army telling there's a job available to them and all of a sudden they're enrolled in the russian army. so that's what the operational pause is all about. it's about a basically be constituting their forces in order to continue continue their attacks on the invasion. and nick, we saw em, our colleague can't make connelly's report there at which was focused on the the city of harrison and the ukrainians are advancing on the russian occupied city of had somewhat more. can you tell us it's really important to talk about that because we always, you know, we focus a lot on, on, on the hanson and donuts can that,
10:13 am
that big battle has been taking place there. but there's a battle to the south and the russian simply don't have the means to fight on 2 fronts. so it, with the ukrainians are doing, are as, as nick was reporting, you know, resisting the presence of russians. and particularly in the town of her son, they're not participating by not using the rubel. they liked him to oppose, perhaps boycotting the referendum. and there's also partisan, so an underground that is blowing up railway tracks, redway bridges, armored rail road, cars carrying ammunition, doing all kinds of things are probably only hearing a little part of in order to push back. meanwhile, the ukrainian troops are shelling and slowly advancing their within about 2020 kilometers of course on city itself. detail you correspondent, exposure in keith. thank you. here's a quick look at so more stories making use around the world. hollywood actor james can, has died aged 82. he was best known for his role as sony corleone in france's for
10:14 am
capital as the godfather, for which he was nominated for an academy award as best supporting actor. he also appeared in films by celebrated directors, robert altman, and howard walks. i think it's good. the trials of officials in connection with the deadly 2018 bridge collapse in the italian city of genoa has begun. 59 people are facing charges over the incident that claimed 43 lives. the tragedy exposed the crumbling state of the country's infrastructure. british prime minister bars johnson wants to stay in office until his successor is chosen, but he may not be able to. johnson announced his resignation on thursday after a mast revolt from within his conservative party ministers and party members had enough of a series of scandals and his handling of them. and the idea of johnson staying on for a few more months isn't popular with every one. a moment long delayed, finally becomes unavoidable. good afternoon,
10:15 am
everybody. it is clearly now the will of the parliamentary, conservative party that there should be a new leader of that party. and apple, a new prime minister without saying resign. johnson said he would stay on until a new leader is in place. he lamented his conservative colleagues. eccentric push to change, prime minister, i mean economic challenges, but as we seen a westminster at the heard instinct is powerful when the heard moves, it moves, and by friends in politics, no one is remotely indispensable. watched by his wife and staff, johnson recalled his landslide election when in 2019 his completion of briggs it and passage through the corona virus pandemic. and i want you to know how sad i am to be giving up the best job in the world. but then the brakes, thank you very much. johnson speech close as one chapter but opens the door to
10:16 am
a period of political uncertainty, the opposition and some in his own party. say he should leave office immediately in his to go completely. none of this nonsense about clicking on for a few months. he's inflicted lies, fraud and chaos in the country. but johnson has made a career of hanging on to power and wriggling out of trouble. i've developed morrow, his careless thought to the pandemic, saw him hospitalized with cove at 19 a system. he survived that and later outrage at parties held in his office during lockdown. booze from the public at the queen's jubilee in early june. were followed by a vote of confidence which he won, but was left damaged. i missed the tipping point, came after revelations about sexual misconduct within his party, leading to high level ministerial resignations. after quitting as conservative party leader,
10:17 am
the clock is now ticking on johnson's period as prime minister. with more in this state of new cars funded by but i visit, is in london hyperbola go to see you. so bars, johnson says he staying on his prime minister until his successor is elected at but that's deeply unpopular by many, even within his own party. and obviously the opposition to how viable is it for johnson to carry on his row? that is going to be the big political question. but apart from that, the day after, of course, in london, it feels a bit like the day after a big party that got a bit out of hand. because the last few political days here in britain have been such a wild rollercoaster. off a ride. and then when people awoke this morning to headlines like these, this is the daddy express, a staunch supporter of voice johnson. thank you, boris, for giving us back our freedom. that of course, refers to bricks it and it means that they haven't forgotten that they think this
10:18 am
is his biggest defeat, of course, in office. but then we look at the guardian a rather more bit left leaning and they say it's almost over. so he does killing off to a does killing on to office. we don't quite know for how long. and as you said public it is very, there is a big dispute about it. how viable that is. and then of course, let's take a look at the telegraph. this is basically the tory paper, the paper closest to the conservative party. and they say that britain is under threat of political paralysis because there is a man in office, but not in power. far as johnson is, the quintessential lame duck and off his now for the next week. so maybe even months till the fall, that's what he really wants and what his party is still fighting about. but one last look, please at the economist taking 1st price for the best title page in this milly
10:19 am
here in this political, this is the clown fall, or johnson, the clown riding down into the political abyss. so that pretty much describes the wide range of feelings on the day after plenty of creativity there, in those headlines, balboa to we have a clear picture about who will try to replace johnson isn't being discussed at length in the u. k. of course it is being discuss, it's pretty much everywhere when i buy and i bought these papers this morning, the guy at the, at the cash just said, yeah, who do you think it's going to be? who will replace bar is and i said, i don't know what you think and see, says i richie sooner maybe a he, this is the x, chancellor of the exec exchequer finance minister in other countries. and he seems to be emerging as the most stable series politician was the best background, at least he has a firm grip on,
10:20 am
on economic facts. and he does hell also have sort of check and past because he had problems about tech affairs of his sir. very mega, wealthy indian heiress wife about that's a few months in the past and people might be willing to forgive him that but he seems the man offered sort of the most stature of somebody who could also sort of 1st stand on the international stage. but i'd rather than that, it isn't total free for all within the tory party. it seems everyone who has ever held office things out. now this is my time. let me tried a whole go stand for prime minister. so it's going to be kind of full few weeks here in london. thank you. barbara w correspondent, level of isil in london. foreign ministers of the g 20 developed and emerging economies are gathering in bali, indonesia, against a backdrop of the war in ukraine and, and international food crisis. rushes, foreign minister, saturday,

10:22 am
we must keep opening more room for dialogue. i have conveyed a message from president zalinski to president putin, and i express my readiness to become a communication bridge between the 2 leaders. sherlock throws beside the broker. the content of that message from zalinski was not laid. public widow was the 1st asian leader to visit here since the war began. he invited president so lensky to attend the g 20 liter summit in november, even though ukraine is not part of the group. widow has expressed sympathy with ukrainians over the wall and said the country is territorial. integrity must be respected. prior to the meeting, he told the key of suburb of a pin to witness the devastation 1st hand. in an easier is sending humanitarian aid to ukraine. but as declined to provide weapons for use against russian forces, widow came fresh from an international summit in germany,
10:23 am
where he was able to compare notes with western leaders and meet with those who have previously sought to persuade vladimir putin to end the war. indonesia has had success in the past, in mediating, in regional conflicts in asia. but widow says he has no illusions about the complexity of the russia, ukraine wall. and in reminder of those complexities, zelinski hinted he would only attend the g 20 summit if put in is not there. for the kremlin, says putin has already confirmed his attendance. germany a said to approve the applications of sweden and finland to join nato. members of the bonus tag are about to vote on the accession of germany's to northern allies. after decades of neutrality with to northern countries moved to join the western defense alliance. in response to the russian invasion of ukraine, the ratification requires unanimous approval by all 30 current members. colleague,
10:24 am
colleague, or following this story for us is our political correspondent need a, has a who's standing by in the bonus tag where that vote is about to take place that you can bring us at the latest news from their yes indeed, the vote is about to happen this very minute or that was a debate before and you do have to just comment on the fact that this was truly record speed with which at the german, germany as a whole fest the government. but now also the parliament is pushing through this ross. if occasion process, the german government drafted the law in record time presented it to parliament. here members of parliament are going to give their support. a can be no doubt about that. and in a couple of minutes time. and then it will go to the other chamber that will also be support from that. so germany will have officially ratified by to day. i've heard from members of the parliament here that germany had intended to actually
10:25 am
become the 1st country to ratify. estonia and canada were foster in the end. but the signal from germany remains the same. it is firmly behind finland and sweden joining nato and the support doesn't just come from the governing parties. it also comes from the conservatives. there is brought majority here. and of course in finland and sweden are countries that germany has worked together extremely closely with over years now that trusted partners, their fellow you members. and germany argues that finland and sweden joining later would not just enhance security for those countries in light of potential aggression from russia. but it will also strength nato, as an alliance as a whole. and that, of course, in the end, would benefit germany very speedy process. there at nina. now, does it mean that sweden and finland will be nato members? very soon do we have a timeline of any sort? no, it doesn't mean that that,
10:26 am
and that's because of the votes and the ratification has to be unanimous. so all 30 native members have to officially ratify, and that means that every country has the right to veto and turkey is the big question mark here. now turkey is a native member, but it's also still got ties with russia. and it did try to block finland and sweden at, from joining nato, but then gave up its resistance in the end, but has since issued demands in return for taxes ratification. so pessimists think that this could be a process that would last months and potentially even a full year. and of course finland and sweden will only enjoy the full protection from nato. once or 30 countries have ratified said big question is going to be our countries like joe, like turkey, going to use this process and they're right, a veto, as a means to push through their own interests in other fields. which is something if and finland and sweden don't have the full protection for another year. then of
10:27 am
course, germany has said that there will be security guarantees, and germany is not alone in that the united kingdom. but also the united states, for example, have set the same d, w political correspondent, nina has and the germ apartment force. thank you. and here's a reminder of our top story. former japanese prime minister sions obey has been air lifted to hospital after being shot during a campaign event. the suspect a former member of japan's navy, was arrested at the sea. well, that's all for us here in berlin. i'll be back again. i got to top off the next are i to watch? ah ah,
