mohammed been solomon raising the issue of the murder of dissident a journalist, jamal kashodi. but who have heard frosty tysons by about to make the kingdom a pariah following kashodi is killing and now joined by dw corresponded caroline had she moy, in washington, carolina. first of all, why has joe biden changed his mind to meet with the crown prince or president biden himself said that at this street to the middle east is mainly about promoting us interests, especially in economic terms, but also security. so what we're seeing here is a huge you turn in biden's foreign policy and it's a real re calibration of his relationship to saudi arabia. so as we saw this morning during the gcc summit, what biden is trying to do here is to reset of the relationship to saudi arabia

until the middle east. he wants to see if the u. s. and saudi arabia can work together in a different issues, like for example, energy, but also climate infrastructure and for security, of course, the question remains, how do date start over? especially after bitin one said that, sorry, your ebay has a pariah state. and where did he go from here? now, of course are working together is always a good thing, but it is quite a change of hearts. what exactly does the u. s. president want from this visit? well, if we follow his announcement before, he is started this trip of wanting to promote you as interest in the release, we can rapidly see and conclude that protection of oil is of course in the focus. and one of the main concerns that bite and is taking to the middle east gasoline prices worldwide. and also here the u. s. has been increasing during the last month . and this, combined with the highest inflation in the u as is just the worse makes for bite and, and for the democrats in an election year. so president biden is hoping for saudi

arabia to produce more oil, said our abs has at that the see to insure market stability and that they will not produce more all without consulting 1st seal pick plus group. president biden said yesterday, after his meeting with the crown prince of saudi arabia, let's look and see what happens in a couple of weeks. and we do know that the open plus countries have set up a meeting for the 3rd of august, or the old charges, of course, will be a main issue on the agenda. so we'll probably no more after that meeting. i what does the, the white, a middle east region expect her from the west from jo by briefly, if you would while they know that the, you, as is very interested in their own protection, but also in their position in international politics. but it has made clear that he is also there to strengthen relationships with them. and in his words, he doesn't want to leave a gap in international relations for russia and china to feel so he wants to avoid

a stronger ties between sally arrive via the middle east and russia or china. but the truth is that they already have a relation with them. china, russia, they're already there. so they are the ones who can choose now who they want to cooperate with. you know, it'll be correspondent, can relate to more the in washington for us. thank you. so much and his a quick look at some more stories making use around the world. the israel army has released a video of an air strike on what it says was a hamas weapons producing site in the gaza strip. the military said it responded to rockets fired from the territory towards southern israel. that happened on the day you as president joe biden met palestinian lead among with abbas before heading to saudi arabia. a military helicopter has crashed in north west on mexico, killing 14 people. mexic was president, said the aircraft was part of a mission to capture a drug. king ping before it crushed roughly a cow. king theodore of the guadalajara cartel was arrested earlier in the day. an

investigation into the course of the crush is underway. parliament entry long has begun the process of choosing a successor to the post president. gotta buy a raja pack so the chamber will be selecting a new leader to serve the rest of roger access term after he fled the country. on wednesday, his successor, we need to tackle sri lanka, economic crisis, ukraine's nuclear agencies, as russia is using a captured nuclear power plant to store weapons and attack targets. the agencies, presidents as hundreds of russian troops control the separation nuclear plant in a southeast and ukraine, which russia took in the invasions, early weeks. the accuses russia using the plant as a base to shell, the surrounding region. one of the a ledger to targets is the city of ne pro, the ukraine government published this video and it's telegram channel, which it says shows a russian strike on the city region. a governor says 3 people were killed by

russian misses is one of the latest in a series of attacks on urban areas that have killed dozens of people in recent days . george and for more or less crossover, nadia t. f and d w's and nick spice. and nick, there are concerns over the separation nuclear plan. to what more can you tell us? what exactly is going on? there are concerts in the other of a turn, noble level scale. if you think about it, this is europe's biggest nuclear reactor, 6 reactors at work generating electricity. there are some 500 russian soldiers who are there. and the head of the ukrainian atomic energy agency says they are shelling cities nearby and using rocket launchers. they're essentially making any kind of repost impossible unless you want to set off a giant meltdown. now listen, when the russians actually moved in to the base, they shot one of the reactors with the tank shell. nothing happened this from the employees to work at the plan that we can trust them. at another shell fell on

a transformer. have that shell blown up as it was supposed to. all of the cooling systems in the nuclear power plant would have stopped and it would have gone into meltdown to the stakes. are really, really high. the russians are there is because they've been coming under all kinds of very, very target a targeted attack. elsewhere in the country with new western weapons, righten and russia of course, has been focusing its efforts in easton ukraine. but in recent days you said they have been reports of attacks all across the country. what's the game plan? it is so you know, we hear about showing of civilian buildings and gains of territory here and there. but bottom line is since the beginning of may, the russians have taken 5 percent more of ukrainian territory. this is a war of attrition. sometimes the russians are far $50000.00 shells in a day the, the ground that the gain is essentially destroyed and empty of its inhabitants in the rock. ukrainians who have left it have made

a tactical retreat. what is really changing in the past 10 days? i would say is the arrival of these high mars american rocket systems, which are targeted by gps accurate to within one to 3 meters. the rockets, the russians are firing within 500 meters, with ukrainians, are doing our targeting the russians, ammunition depos. they tend to stockpile everything together, not spread it around as other armies do. so it's pretty easy to take out a large number of rushing artillery shells and prevent them from using those giant artillery barrage as that's what's changing. it may be the reason why civilian targets are being struck with more regularity would seem president zalinski saying that these attacks are in fact an act of terrorism. and yeah, i mean, we've seen a dozens of civilians died in recent days in ukraine. just briefly is, is all of that to denting marilyn ukraine. i don't think in any way, shape or form if anything is sales people resolves. i mean,

i've been speaking with veterans and ordinary ukrainians and they're all on social media. they know that stuff is happening for real kremlin denies. it says it's manufactured by president zalinski through some kind of internet magic and filmmaking. it's not true. everybody's got a relative who's been affected. and if, if anything, it just makes people more and more convinced that they need to keep fighting, you've got about 95 percent of ukrainians who believe victory as possible and around that number, support their president and did obese. next i said a reporting for us from kia, thank you so much. nick. authorities of the western ukrainian city of live if are changing their building codes to reflect the new reality of war. in the future, every new building will have a purpose built to bomb shelter in anticipation of many more russian ad rates. and missile strikes. lives chief architect showed dw ambien se of around a building that serving as a model for future structures. levine, tech city,

on the outside, a normal office park inside workers are preparing this structure for war. the bomb shelter is located in the parking garage. levine's chief architect explains which features make this shelter state of the art and why he wants every new building in the city to have the same like that. we, on the store to the side of the waters. it's about basic thinks it's about the possibility you when building air collapsed, to stay and wait for the rescue. that's why we need the fresh water. it's sometimes called inside her parking, which is a bumping shelter the same time. so it's impossible in the february who's been here few hours during minus 5 degrees celsius outside is why we need to separate that room with a heating, heating, fresh water food supplies, bathrooms, with toilets and showers for those upstairs in case of an attack. and all this

handicap accessible, that's what levine's new building codes call for. we are ready. we're poor there next on think we should be ready for the next conference with this kind of neighbor with that. are, it's a few years been been years. nobody knows. a grim reality is being written into levine architecture that for the foreseeable future, ukraine will have to defend its right to exist. when construction started on this building about 2 years ago, it was built to be one of the safest buildings in the country with one of the most modern bomb shelters safe from any tax from the sky and eventuality of a war. but the architects didn't realize how soon their design would be put into practice. even as the work is completed, families displaced from eastern ukraine have taken up temporary residents here. it may lack the creature comforts of a home, but this modern bomb shelter has what it takes to sustain life. a priority for

a country at war. the british government is holding an emergency meeting to day to plan for what promises to be a record heat wave approaching temperatures and the coming week could reach 40 degrees celsius for the 1st time in the u. k. the weather has already been scorching south west europe the days residents in the spanish capital madrid during that best to keep cool and hydrated. spain is suffering from a dangerous heat wave that stretching across much of southwest europe. and rising temperatures occurring siding with soaring energy prices, consequences of the war in ukraine. either somebody at voice whole families have to be frugal when using air conditioners, electric fans sorta goes electricity. bill has surged a lot more to see more. more than 80 people have died from the extreme temperatures, which i expected to extended to next week. the sweltering heat has also said of
