ah, this is the moment to unleash on violet to pause and read. imagine these teachings for relevance to, ah, gandhi's legacy door to get fixed on b, w ah, [000:00:00;00] ah, this is daily news, live from berlin. the new agrees to reduce gas consumption and prepares for a total cut off energy minister sign up to 15 percent reduction to say,

for reserves or the winter as rush us lashes gas deliveries. or when he's, the energy minister says moscow is waging economic warfare also on the program. russia launch is renewed missile strikes along ukraine's black sea coast headings, vital infrastructure, and casting fresh doubt on a deal to export ukrainian green to the world. and greek fire fighters spend a thick stay battling a massive wildfire. consuming vast stretches of protected forest endangering wild live and their habitat. ah, i'm the gulf really. he's going to have you with us. european union countries have agreed to cut gas usage this winter by 15 percent with russia cutting deliveries and half moscow says the reduction is because of necessary maintenance work on the

north in one gas pipeline into germany. and that a complete stop edge is not on the cards, but those words are being met skeptically. if supplies fall to critical levels, the new deal should allow emergency transfers of gas to member states facing shortages as europe's energy ministers met in brussels on tuesday. the urgency of the challenge they faced had become increasingly obvious. russia's announcement this week that it would cut supply of natural gas through its main pipeline to germany, to just a 5th of capacity meant a bad situation. had become even more dire. a collective agreement to reduce gas consumption has been long needed, but brussels initial demand for mandatory 15 percent caught had caused uproar last week. as a result, the text agreed by the member states has multiple compromises. dairies no other option, then gas savings, unless the law gets rate of dependency on russian gas,

the price is room in high. if we succeed, that prices will drop proposed cuts of 15 percent or no voluntary. and if the target becomes mandatory, the list of opt outs is long. among the exemptions island stay, it's not connected to the european grid such as ireland, malta and cyprus. countries heavily dependent on gas for electricity can also opt out necessary flexibility ministers say to protect the european economy as a whole. lot better shall industrial production, change a completely interdependent if there are problems with chemical from germany, than the whole of european industry can stop. and that is what is at stake. effect that shows the fuel stays through my troops, but europe is able to find union unity and term giving a strong segment. also, in the day we're the flows of decimals to run or reduce them to another 20 percent . to poaching and to russia. you won't split us,

so this is the important screen overdue since the war and ukraine began 5 months ago. the need for europe to rid itself of its dependence on russian energy has grown by the day. governments are hoping that with winter on the horizon supplies tightening and price, a soaring, this compromise is enough for now. why crane says russian forces have launched new missile strikes against coastal towns in the southern regions of odessa and mc alive. keith has released footage of what it says is the aftermath of the attacks which hid several buildings along with port infrastructure on the black sea coast. russia attacked odessa sport during the weekend casting doubt on fridays break through deal to resume grain exports to the world. it only is meant he has bellinger in key of explain what these missiles drives mean for grain shipments out of the port of odessa. it's hard to say ukraine is still preparing for these shipments. mm hm. and is still determined to reopen these 3 paws under this very

special agreement that will allow for these grams grades to be shipped out by turkish vessels that will buy turkish owned vessels. that will have a safe passage into ukraine into these ukranian. pause the passage being guaranteed by the russians who have sent them to would not attack these vessels and are the ukrainians who would open a lane so dead through the sea. elaine, that is without mines, under the hope is, of course, that russia would not dare to the tech turkish vessels, but the, that the weak point is, of course, the supply lines behind the ports. theoretically russia has excluded attacking port a ports in this agreement. um, but a trust of course, in russia's action is not very high. so the preparations are going on, but whether it will happen or not, we will know only after a wide range military says it has used advanced

u. s. weapons systems to strike more than 50 russian military targets in recent weeks. it credits the multiple rocket, launching trucks known as high mars, with helping to destroy ammunition, depots, and bridges and rationale territory. ukraine has only a handful of these vehicles with more on the way, but they're also a target for russian tax. this is hi mas, a high mobility artillery rocket system. the crown jewel in ukraine scrubbing arsenal of us made weapons. and this is what he can do to high mass can pull up in the middle of the road and far off multiple rockies very quickly. and that precision guided so they can accurately target russian muniz since combat centers and mall. the high mars is basically a truck carrying a pot containing 6 missiles. it can be reloaded in 3 to 5 minutes. most artillery

is mounted on slower moving, treaded vehicles or towed by trucks. but a high mark could get away quickly once its fall off its payload. or, as the military term goes, it can shoot and scoot its missiles have a range of 80 kilometers far more than most russian artillery. this means the russians must move their sensitive targets like ammunition depos, further from the front lines. this makes it harder to supply its combat units. analysts say this is the game changing part of high miles. ukraine says it's rockets, have destroyed at least 30 logistics hubs and ammunition, depos. russia says it has destroyed at least 2 of the high miles trucks, a claim, the u. s. denies that ukraine's ability to use them effectively will also mean hiding these precious systems. well, keeping them supplied with ammunition is up to the west. journalist

tim ripley is a military and event specialist and we asked him if a dozen high miles are enough to give ukraine and military edge over russian forces . you're right, it's, it's, it's question of scale in this war. i mean, we've heard reports of the russians foreign, 50000 artillery shows a day so that the amount of firepower, the ukrainians can, can return with the high mile systems. it is a fraction of the russian capability at the moment. now the high miles all proved to be quite effective at hitting as you say, our mission dumps in headquarters. they don't seem to been turned on the russian front line troops yet. so the actual battle in the trenches in the town in the woods of east in ukraine has not been affected by them very much so far. i was journalist tim ripley was now a take a look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today. former u. s. president donald trump has given a speech in washington,

d. c. and his 1st trip to the capitals and leaving office his address focused on public safety. trump is expected to run again. in 2024 to pan has executed a man who killed 7 people in a truck ramming and stabbing in 2008 authority said tomo hero. kanto had carefully planned the attack on a crowd of pedestrians despite international criticism of the death penalty in japan's justice minister insisted the punishment fit at the crime. germany's largest airline. lufthansa will cancel nearly all flights at its domestic hobbs, frankfurt, and munich on wednesday. ground staff are striking. this could impact travel plans for more than 130000 passengers. in the coming days. union negotiators want a pay rise for staff record rainfall has caused widespread flash flooding and the st. louis area in the united states,

multiple roads were closed and fire fighters rescued stranded people from cars and homes. almost 30 centimeters of rain fell in some areas. and fire fighters in northern greece have been trying to put out a fire blazing in a national park for 6 days. now volunteers from a wildlife protection group or trying to rescue animals. the daniel forest is one of the most important protected areas in europe. vast areas of pines have already been lost to the fire dw corresponding florian schmidt's is close to the village of diana near the turkish border and gave us the latest. well, as you can see behind me, the situation is actually getting worse. the wind has been picking up feeding these flames. so the people he had ever was braced or another very critical night. it'll be the 7th day to morrow. 320 firefighters from all over greece work

day and night to contain its names. but the weather conditions made it make it very difficult. it's been very hot and dried, ranked a little bit yesterday, but just some drops in the the desert. the situation in this forest is especially difficult because we were talking about pine trees here, pine trees, a very labeled pine cones explode and helps riding the fire that way. and also it is a protected area. that means there are no roads, firefighters, don't act as they don't do. they can penetrate the deep off of the forest them. so what we're looking at is a situation out of control. still, we will see what happens tomorrow. there is no rain in the, in the weather forecasts so far on a positive note. so the blazes in less was and in pit upon us. those that kept us

word for the past couple of days seem to be under control. frenchman, increase archaeologist and israel have been showing off or recently discovered rare roman era coin. it's thought to be about 1850 years old and bears the image of the zodiac sign cancer behind a depiction of the moon. god is luna, it was minted in the egyptian city of alexandria. the coin was discovered off the coast of haifa and is the only one of its kind ever found in israel and in sport, england or through to the final of euro, 2022. after beating sweden for nil. the lionesses kept their composure after fiercely contested star to the game, and sheffield forward beth needs scored her 6 goal of the tournament, giving her the joint most goals in a single euros. england will play either germany or france who face off on wednesday. and for more on the women's euro, semi final, i'm joined by our sports or for your might. he has blake, when he has, how did england get it done tonight?

he has so for an ill seems like a very, very easy game for english, but it was anything but that apparently in the 1st half of the game, sweden was the better team in the very 1st minute, sweden had a great chance of scoring the one goal and then only 5 minutes later they could have put a 2nd one past england. so as we say in football, you know, if you're not efficient up front, then eventually you will regret that. and that is exactly what happened to sweden in this case. so england managed to actually sort out the defense in the 1st half. there weren't as open any more in the back half. and then in the very 1st chance that england head, this court, the one mill, and that is exactly what happens then if you don't score up front, you actually eventually concede, and beth meet again. what a superstar she's been and what a superstar has been in this tournament right now. 6 golds already. and she has now equalled income drinks record from 2009 who was the only other women so far as the euros who scored 6 goals. and england has made it easier for themselves in the 2nd half if you score right after half time. i think sweden spirit was

a little bit broken and, and the flood gates opened a brilliant gold by england ride off to that alysia rousseau. i just have to mention her very quickly, scott: a back, he'll go through the legs of the sweden goal, people for the 3 nil. and then the for neil was a rather easy lobe and it could have been 5 or 6 in the and so sweden, well and truly the spirit was broken but they should have the heads i because for most parts of the game, the game could have gone completely different direction if they would have scored the goal or they just did not. okay, then let's look at wednesday, semifinals jeremy versus france. what, in fact, germany against france, this isn't particularly interesting game. so as martina forced jacqueline book, the german code says that this is on even terms, it's a 5050 game and that's exactly how i see it as well. germany might go and slide favorites because they are yet to concede a goal in the entire yours, which is very, very impressive. trans had to go through extra time in their last game and they're probably a little bit exhausted from that. but they had a lot of arrest ace. now,

the french as well. it is the very 1st semi final in the euro's. so for france, it's obviously very new experience in germany. well, what can you say with germany, the most successful saw in europeans history. and the pizza austria comfortable in the quarter finals as well. so they will go in with their spirits very, very high. alexandra pop when she came back into the team, the captain. she's a massive different, she's course goals. she does everything for the team. and i think germany will get this one done in a very, very closing column, maybe an extra time mathias break of d. w. sports. thank you so much. you're watching the de leon news. i'll be back at the top of the hour with more of but stick around business with janelle is up after the break. is the end of the pandemic in site. we show what it could look like
