heard of our people were exterminated $6000000.00 jews, like microbes to be annihilated even 77 years after the holocaust hatred towards jews is still pervasive. history of anti semitism this week on d. w. ah ah . this is the w news live from berlin and japan's former primary session. so our base dies after being shot during our political robbie was giving a speech ahead of this weekend's parliamentary elections. medic say he bled to death after sustaining injury to his heart, will bring the latest from tokyo. also on the program brushes,

vladimir putin wants the war in ukraine's only just getting started as his foreign minister. so again, after all, flashes out of rushes. critics saying there's no point in talking about peace. ah, i'm feel gale. welcome to the program. to pan's former prime minister since or ave has died after being shot at a political rally ahead of the weekends parliamentary elections, police or 41 year old man has been arrested. as to obey was the country's longest serving premier and was well known for a strong economic and defense policies. is killing his shocked japan, a country where firearms are strictly regulated, and political violence is rare. oh, the moment shin, so ave, we shot twice, a suspect man,

handled to the ground. what appears to be a weapon lying on the road near by people run to the age of japan's former prime minister as he lay seriously wounded. he was quickly transferred to a helicopter and flown to hospital. at this point, his condition was described as critical, but doctors were unable to save him. mister shins obey was taken into emergency care at 20 past 12. he was in a state of cardiac arrest. he was given intensive care, but unfortunately he passed away to day, but 3 minutes past 5. when he arrived, he had gunshot wounds on 2 parts of his body and was in a state of cardiac arrest, probably induced by damage to hearts unto the altar. is the area in the

city of nora, where this veteran politician had been giving an election campaign speech is now a crime scene. the assassination has shocked japan. a country wag, gun violence is rare, images, shaggy nor mrs. a dastardly and barbaric oddity. to knock out it took place in the midst of an election. isn't a bunker dirty? this is the basis of a democracy to stay and is absolutely unforgivable because i would like to use again, the harshest words to condemn this act. you know, he does his chin. so our bay was 1st elected prime minister of japan in 2006, making him at 52 the country,

his youngest ever premier. oh, it proved short lived a year later he quit following a string of party scandals. he was also suffering from health problems, but he wasn't gone for long in 2012. he was back promising to revive japan's flagging economy. following years of deflation. abilene mixed it, he even put his own name on the plan up in nomics. drinking ave was also hawkish on defense, expanding japan's military role after years of pacifism, that proved a controversial policy. and he failed to formally rewrite the country's pacifist constitution. he did though, bolster japan security alliance with the united states.

ave was considered a strong leader on the world stage. but in 2020, he again resigned citing poor health. so to get us politics though, was always in his blood right up until the end journalist a sonia blush in tokyo, told me more about the suspect in custody information. it keeps coming in. we know that he's 41 of from nora. he went to school, there has lived there in the past 10 years, at least. he was a former member of the japanese self defense force and a train there for a couple of years also learned how to use weapons which probably was useful now for an acting his plan which apparently had in his head at least since spring. so he said he's been preparing this since spring and he did this. he said to police

because he was against an organization that he thought of. it was a member of. right. and despite this shootings are rare in japan, obey. yes, they are because a gun owning a gun is very difficult to pander. a lot of background check psychological champs and checks the neighbors get asked and all these things. and so owning a gun, unless it's a hunting gun, is very different than even that is tricky. and they're still trying to find out whether he was actually in possession of such a hunting license. right, so we have this extraordinary event resulting in the death of a significant i figure in japanese society, our people reacting people are very shocked. they say they can't believe it. or they're also very angry. they say, you know, this is an attack on democracy. how can this be? well, why would someone do something like this? and politicians today, they canceled their events,

but tomorrow they want to go back campaigning because they say we want to want to bow and to this sort of violence on the will, mr. mr. are by step down as prime minister 2 years ago. he was campaigning for parliamentary elections that this weekend. so what has been his role in politics since then? he's been the person that's been pulling the strings behind the scenes. i mean, he did step down 2 years ago and did take a short break, but after that, he's been the head of a very powerful faction within the liberal democratic party. and he still was really the, the master. i would even say, you know, behind the scenes and the current prime minister could you see that was really trying to kind of emerge from under obvious shadow with these elections. ok, thank you for that. san antonio bhaskar in tokyo,

vladimir putin has war that his country is offensive in ukraine's or has barely begun. is also accused the west of fueling, the war declaring that western efforts to defeat him would bring tragedy to ukraine . the russian president was addressing parliamentary leaders. certainly, most lucian, we're hearing that they want to defeat us up with you on the battlefield. what can i say is good with the let them try. mosier more. we have often heard of the west wants us to fight it until the last ukrainian it that there it's a tragedy the ukrainian people, oklahoma, but it looks like it's heading in that direction. no, she doesn't. but everybody should know that largely speaking. sure that we haven't even yet started anything in earnest. but at the same time, we don't refuse peace talks, but those who refuse should no longer it loss the more difficult it will be for them to make a deal without him sledge near him would send them to the okay. w correspondent mc

spicer is in the ukranian capital. he told me how those comments have been received . with some indifference, i would say from official them we only have an advisor to president zalinski saying that western powers, which he says are at work in ukraine are not present in the country. only russian soldiers are a talk to a bunch of people on the streets to day one man said, look, we know what putin is doing. this is a message to his people, 1st and foremost, to so that he is powerful. he is in charge and a message to the west, hands off ukraine, a woman i spoke to said that his set, what he had to say was diabolical and said he was essentially satan and a young man of draft age said to me, all that back kind of common can do is steal the resolve of ukrainian fighters on the front line. she was right in the fighting itself, a rush repairs to have a east off. it's don't bass offensive as since it took lucy chance. a why is that? well the, you know, russian high command has said that is mark this undertaking an operational pause.

and i think the reason why is because they have to reconstitute their, their attack tactical, but tap battle groups. they were decimated in large part in the attempt to take this city at the start of the war. phil, as you recall, what they've been doing for the, you know, land that they've been able to conquer, is basically unleashing huge artillery garages. and then moving in to a scorched earth city of bubble and which the ukrainians have evacuated for tactical reasons for their not really winning person, you know, hand to hand street by street combat they need to get their troops reorganized into fighting units. did only correspond expire in cave, like a great look now at small stories making news around the world. a foreign ministers of the g 20 developed and emerging economies, a meeting in indonesia, the summer, has been overshadowed by the war in ukraine and, and international food and the energy crisis, a russian foreign minister. so again, love rav walked out of talk,

some criticism from western nations. germany's parliament is overwhelmingly approved the applications of sweden and finland to join the native alliance. after decades of neutrality, the 2 nordic countries are sought to join nato in response to russia's invasion of ukraine. finally, ratification will require unanimous approval by all 30 current nato states. russia has vetoed a un security council resolution to extend a deliveries into rebel held areas of syria for a year. thousands of a trucks have passed through the bab aha crossing into the italy region this year. excuse me, russia proposed to write a rival resolution with a 6 month thing extension instead, but that also fail to pass moscow's chief rabbi has quit after 30 years, reportedly over russia's invasion of ukraine. think as goldsmith led the gap left the country for israel early this year. russian media say he left because his

contract expired on gold as former president joe said water da santos has died at the age of 79 once an independence. pfeiffer, he rudely oil rich central african nation. for nearly 40 years. his tenure was marked by civil war and branford corruption. he stepped down in september 2017. he died in spain, where he was being treated following a prolonged illness. i asked at d. w, africa correspondent adrian creek. how much of a controversial figure at the president da santos had bait? will indeed of controversial figure. the son of a bricklayer rose very fast through the ranks of the liberation movement, became president at a very early age and his supporters subs. and basically they praise him as the architect of peace because under his watch, the longest civil war in africa ended. and they also praise him for the oil discoveries and the oil wealth that basically came across during his rule as well.

and under his watch, angola became the 2nd biggest oil producer on the continental, one of the capital, a very wealthy place, one of the richest cities of the world under his watch, and one of the most expensive ones as well. but on the other hand, of course, he had a lot of criticism, this nepotism mess of human rights abuses. and this is the other side of it, a lot of scientists. and what is his legacy likely to be? well somewhere in between us as, as we've just said, it's on the one hand. yes, he had an important role definitely in the liberation movement, but likely the focus, but most people will remember him for will be these massive human rights abuses, this massive corruption that happened under his watch when you are now in luanda and then the capital of the country, you see the one side of angola, the, the wealthy oil rich, the fancy buildings, the nice beads fronts where people spend a lot of money to go out and live a good life. and on the other hand, in eyesight you have slammed people,

living in poverty, they don't have access to, to water to electricity. there still massive challenges for the country. and in august the next elections will be held. so the death of the president and the statement that we've seen from the current president now is giving us indication that the reconciliate return that we're hearing and that the president does not want confrontation at this time. and is of course rather i think support also from the supporters of former president. why does a sentence ok, thank you for that address increase in today's defending champion or about drug writ. charles booked his place in sundays. wimbledon ben's final after beating of britain's cameron nori 3 sets to walk. talk of its lost the 1st sad, but managed to become from a slow start. once he asserted that dominance, there was no stopping the 20 time grand slam winner who faced 1st time major find this that nick chaos fully trophy on sunday. it'll be just richard, that his 2nd grandson, title match is remind of our top story. at this our former japanese prime minister
