lady ah, even 77 years after the holocaust hatred towards jews is still pervasive. the history of anti semitism this week on d. w ah ah ah, this is dw news coming to live from berlin, spain's prime minister says climate change kills as several countries, including his own bottle deadly wildfires. a record breaking heat wave is only making matters worse. also coming up, iran's president hosts his russian and turkish counterparts in tehran. we'll look

at what their aims might be and how it could impact the course of the war in ukraine. and another russian missile strike on a key ukrainian port officials in odessa say several people were injured overnight and an attack that could further complicate efforts to ship badly needed grain to world markets. plus the un is ramping up. it's response to get aid to millions of sri lanka ships hit, hit hard by the economic crisis. ah . hello, i'm terry martin. thanks for joining us. the climate of urgency is making itself felt across europe. record breaking temperatures are fueling wild fires, burning out of control across huge sways of france, greece, portugal, spain, and italy. many of these areas are also suffering severe route. the heat wave is

now moved north east reaching as far as the united kingdom. many places are seeing temperatures far higher than they're used to surpassing 40 degrees celsius. in some areas, the conditions have caused hundreds of deaths, including several people killed by wild fires in spain. spain is on fire. with more than $70000.00 hatches of land already going up in flames this year. residence of this town in the north western province of zamora. what battling on monday to stop their homes being next but an attempt to dig a trench to stop the approaching fire almost came to a deadly end for one local man. after his digger was engulfed in flames. do fortunately, he was able to make a narrow escape and was taken to hospital with serious burns

elsewhere in the province. passengers also had a close encounter with the fires when their train made a brief hair raising stop in the countryside. with emergency services battling flies all across the country. tens of thousands have been fools to evacuate. many know they will have little to come back to the particular. so we know, for example, that our house is completely burned. we also had a van, are you still traveling a lot we bought the van when i retired. novice don't use bush. yeah. we have nothing. got oxygen chavez. picket visiting affected areas next from a daughter, spain's prime minister. petra sanchez said, climate change was to blame for the devastation he should have it. i want to see that evidently climate change kills at the persona. it gives people,

gills aren't because system was the land. biodiversity noticed them on with their ability, but she, that in france, 2 authorities are struggling to deal with record breaking wild fires. in the south western geron region, 2 fires have already been through more than 17000 hacked hairs of forest. within the last week. strong winds have helped fan the flames with fire fighters unable to bring them under control. the weather forecasts do offer some hope of respite with temperatures set to drop in western france. as the extreme heat wave moves east are corresponded. jack carrick is feeling the heat to day in london. little while ago he gave us his update. it's very, very hot. terry. we, where i'm stood here. i said of the target are of london. i think it's somewhere 3637 degrees celsius perhaps. but we are provisioning,

getting told that potentially a full record for the united kingdom. temperatures has not been reached at 39 point one degrees celsius. yesterday we saw wales, the country of wales surpassed its temperature record, and it is still predicted to get hotter as we go through the day. theresa. these are really record breaking temperatures for britain never seen in the 150 years. the records have been taken on, on temperatures. that heat is extreme, even for people are used to it, but the u. k. infrastructure is not set up to deal with this kind of heat. jacka, how much disruption is the heat weight causing well at the moment is looking relatively measured. there are a lot of trains that have been cancelled. we know that luton add port frances, the runway goes so hot that they had to repair it, that the flights of be massively affected that and indeed a number of our ports all around the country. now, the british government had told people to avoid travelling as much as possible.

there is a red extreme heat warning on the people here. people are being told to look off to that vulnerable the elderly, except for making sure that they're staying hydrated, making sure they're staying out of the sun, and that, that they're staying in doors where possible. but as you can see where i am, there are a lot of tourists here that are turned out. most of them i would say from abroad. a lot of the british people that perhaps would travel around the country have decided to stay, put that people that have made trips here. osteo like as you say, the country just isn't a quit for this. the buildings are not built to withstand this kind of heat, and the infrastructure is just not prepared for it either. but it is predicted that potentially tomorrow there will be a 10 percent 10 degree drop in temperature. so it looks like by the end of today tuesday, the heat wave will start to abate a little bit. terry. jack, thanks so much. go find some shade. that was our correspond jack park there in london or for weather experts perspective on this. i spoke earlier to meteorologist

matthew cut poochie. he told me climate change means extreme heat ways like this will become more common and more severe. by now is roughly wasn't 100 to 300 year event by the end of the century. thanks a human who's climate change it me once every 10 to 15 year event made 10 times more likely thanks to climate change. so heat ways getting worse, getting longer, getting more severe and having a much higher human impacts. as meteorologist matthew can put you there. well, as germany also deals with some records, some are temperatures. senior officials for around 40 countries have gathered in berlin to discuss how to tackle the impact of the climate emergency. the meeting comes ahead of this year's un climate summit in egypt, the so called petersburg climate dialogue which ends today was hosted for the 1st time by germany's foreign ministry. was crossover to our political correspond, nina hossa who was covering that meeting. nina,

this conference is laying the groundwork for cop 27, the global climate summit scheduled for november. what did the delegates in berlin agree on? well, no decisions were met and were made at this meeting. but this was probably one of the last opportunities for some 40 countries to have frank and open discussions on a very high level before that important climate conference. so ministers could talk to each other, listen to each other and not just the low level negotiators and foreign minister, angelina babcock said that the idea was that menaces reminded each other of the urgency to act. because you do have to keep in mind that many countries have written down or are writing down. that pledge is how they intend to fight the climate crisis. so all the legal texts are in place, but of course, there's currently a multitude of crises for many countries, and they are all linked to each other. the effects of the covert pandemic, rising energy and food prices, the implications of russia's war against ukraine. and despite all this said,

foreman said, bab, climate action is more necessary than ever. now, world leaders polishing not to sacrifice climate protection when plugging the gap in energy supplies resulting from the war in ukraine right now. but how likely is that? will europeans really care much about where their energy is coming from? nina, if they're heating, systems are threatened this winter. it is an immense test for the international community. and it is, of course, a huge challenge also for the rich countries to really put their money where their mouth is. and so countries like germany out tremendously dependent on russian gas deal and they are paying the price right now for short sighted energy politics in the past. so germany is trying to radically reduce its dependency on russian gas and on fossil fuels in general. but if houses are to be kept warm in the winter, then they do need solution for the transition period and quick ones. and that of course include sticking with fossil fuels longer than intended. and that is

something where some of the poor countries are saying, well, if germany and other rich countries are not getting rid of fossil fuels, how can we get that impetus that we need for that green energy transition period? and that is a tough question to answer. nina, thank you very much. our political correspondent neither has or there is a look at some other stories making headlines around the world today. european union has agreed to proceed with accession negotiations with albania and north macedonia. the step comes after bulgaria and north macedonia, resolved to dispute over language meant national identity is 13 prisoners have been killed in a jail in the ecuadorian city of santo domingo. ecuador government, 1st attributed ongoing violence in its prisons to disputes between gangs over control of territory and drug trafficking. the award winning iranian filmmaker, jaffar fun. no, he must serve a 6 year prison term. he was sentenced to over

a decade ago for creating anti government propaganda. and now he who won the top prize at the belly, now the film festival in 2015, was arrested last week in iran's capital, tara, russia's president vladimir putin is visiting iran, where he's looking to strength and strategic ties. it's only his 2nd trip outside russia since launching the war against ukraine in february. he will hold talks with turkish president, wretch of type ottawa and iranian president abraham, right. you see, syria is on the official agenda, but ukraine's also set to be a topic. putin, an era to want are expected to discuss a un backed proposal to resume exports of ukrainian grain. earlier i asked or an analyst ali i told on a job, if this meeting is a sign of closer relations between russia, andy rapp. well, definitely, so i mean,

1st of all, a closer russian iranian corporation was already on displayed before russia's war on ukraine. bud said is provided a new twist. the noun of momentum for the bilateral relationship, which is quite as symmetrical for sure. but both, as you said, or under a severe western sanctions and the iranian, so to be part of a new world order. and that is based on the pillars of russia and china. so there are trying to get closer even closer to russia. now, after russia's war on ukraine, so we're looking at great power rivalry in this matrix, militarily, rushing around are allies in the war in syria. where does the ran stand on ukraine? when there is because of this as the metrical nature of the bilateral relationship,

there has been always strong interference from the russian side in iran. also, when it comes to iranian media coverage about the war and ukraine over the last step, ron has been a bit careful not to provide, not to voice support for the invasion because it regards no territory. integrity to be an important pillar of international relations. so it was an uneasy support that iran is providing, but it is also connected to the geopolitical aspirations that i mentioned earlier. you know, the u. s. government says that iran is preparing to sell armed drones to russia for use in ukraine. what do you make of that? well, although there is a disclaimed by jake sullivan was the national security advisor in the united states has been denied by the iranian science. there is some evidence that iran could indeed provide drones to russia. the iranians over the last few years,

as you know, have used drones also via the proxies in the wide persian gulf region to target the, their foes energy infrastructure and, and surprisingly, those drone attacks were quite precise. so the iranians have had some experience in using those drones and, and it could certainly help out the russian war effort in ukraine wave as such, an export would be materialized. ok. what might closer cooperation between russia and you ran mean for the rest of the world? well, 1st of all, it would mean a nothing good for the iranian population. there is a lot of reticence from the bulk of iranians towards the resumes ambition to forge closer ties. with russia as a, as

a aimed at at moscow being a kind of security provider for the song republic that is under a, has internal but also external pressures. so it would not, you know, be a good signal for a development of iranian society for sure. but geopolitically on the global level, we go back to the aspiration of iran to, to, to, for, to closer ties with russia and china with russia. specifically, they have, they want to 4020 year comprehensive partnership which is not still signed and which also lacks transparency. ah, so, but on the other hand, there is not only a corporation here, but there is also competition when it comes, for instance, a to energy exports of the russians after the war. and the severe sanctions that was imposed by them by the west have provided $30.00 reduction

a barrel to the chinese, which is $10.00 more in terms of than the reduction that iran is offering. so iran in russia despite you know, parallels of interest, also our competitors friends on the energy market. interesting. dr. fidela in a job. thank you very much for talking with us. that was around expert ali fella, the job talking to his peer in berlin. well, yesterday's in ukraine say a russian missile attack on the southern city of odessa has injured at least 6 people, including a child, a spokesman for the local military ministrations, had russian forces fired at least 7 cruise missiles from the black sea hitting residential areas and destroying several homes and houses home to ukraine's biggest port and is crucial to exporting desperately needed grain to the rest of the world . some 22000000 tons of grain remain stuck there because of the finding

or from key of d. w, correspond honey pot. you are told us more about this latest missile strike. she's quite listed. we know about that small village close to odessa city. according to regional authorities. several people have been injured. we do not know whether there were casualties. but if you look at those pictures, really houses burned to the ground. you are the one that asked just how much more of of either injure people that even possible casualties will be reported as the story develops. now, the picture that's painted by russia is much different. they say that actually they hit a military depot or a weapon depot, rather possibly where a western supplied weapons based toward this is not clear just how many depos and, and what exactly was in there. what, of course, it's in the narrative of the past when ever as civilian casualties, residential buildings, a civilian infrastructure, was it? every time russia sat actually no, that wasn't a target, it was a, the, a military, the poor, any other military infrastructure. now if you zoom in on odessa,

but also neighboring nikolai about 140 kilometers to the east, it's not really surprising that russia and forces keep hitting these 2 cities to portal towns because it lies in the interest of russia trying to have a land cory door basically all the way from the don bus across crimea, all the way up to with the romanian border basically trying to cut off ukraine from the black sea. so likely will unfortunately see more of this indiscriminate shelling and bombings across the port towns. odessa, nikolai, in the coming days and weeks, what do these attacks on port cities, particularly on odessa mean for efforts to resume grain shipments from ukraine yet because odessa funny is crucial for that. you really wonder if there is a deal and likely ukrainian and russian forces back but un, but also turkey. officious officials from tour cuba take part in those talks to

resume this week about and blocking the ports. you really wonder if you agree on a piece of paper? how is that going to go had practically like, how can those vessels actually leave the ports, read the grain that are stuck in the silos in odessa, for example, about 22000000 tons of them. how can you establish a mutual trust because this is exactly that's in high demand, but in short supply, how can you guarantee that there's some sort of a ceasefire that could enable to unblock the ports and, and, and gap much needed grain out of the country. or the wars about to enter a 6 month funny. where do things stand right now in terms of the fighting in ukraine? is so much time a pass, of course these and both on the ukranian and on the russian side, you have less weapons, you have less manpower, but russia actually isn't quite in a dilemma right now because they do want to advance in the don bus region while at

the same time, they also need to defend the hassen region in the south. and this is where actually the ukrainian forces want to start the cultural offensive, speculating more or less that they can stretch that man poa of the russian forces. so russians actually need to decide now what is more important to them to food, the advance in a dumbass or rather to also then make sure that they can defend the house and region. a lot will depend on manpower and own weapons and ukrainian forces actually say some of the weapons that have arrived. for example, high mars, these long range missiles systems from the us, help them to stabilize a little bit, the situation. but of course, to them in their narrative, more weapons need to arrive to actually turn to tide in their advance and into india interest. thank you very much, shar corresponded funny french, other in cheer. after the beginning of the war, thousands of young ukrainians left civil society to join the army and defend their

country. hundreds of them have since been killed. the w. the manuel shaws reports on the young people fighting for their country's future. lou. every day at 9 a. m. de traditional song played a catch a sounds of m i down for a while minutes after the u. m. i down resolution of 2014. it was played to commemorate to heavenly 100 protesters who died in the fight to push ukraine towards a sad, determined european future. now, de samsung echoes to death of thousands of sold is, have died for the same cause. ukraine's young people who have always lived in an independent country are bearing the brunt of the will to keep it that way. piled sorted, 20 animals. ah, and i know people for a team and there on the front line. actually i asked myself often, why am i not the just because i feel very sorry because i feel touched by this war
