10:08 pm
leading to more intense periods of extreme heat and drought. the w sam baker is in cologne on the banks of the river. right. water level here in cologne on the rhine river are reaching near record lows. as we've had weeks with little rain and a prolonged period with high temperatures. this drought is being made worse by climate change, which is really impacting the whole region and rivers across the continent. now this is a major problem for ships and companies looking to move goods up and down this river as they need a meter and a half of water to get up and down the river. and in some places, that's not possible right now. so they're having to reduce their cargo to as little as 25 percent of their intended carry. and that is causing delays in getting products to where they need to go and more costs for companies and consumers. this will also add to the energy crisis here in germany,
10:09 pm
as many of the ships going up and down this river are carrying coal, heating, oil and diesel. and those, ironically, perhaps, are the very fossil fuels that are contributing to this climate crisis. and making this drought worse and making it harder for these ships to navigate this river. the, the lease and baker there on the banks of the river rhine and cologne, russian officials say 3000 people have been evacuated, falling multiple explosions at an ammunition depot in crimea. after some back and forth, moscow described it as an act of sabotage without saying who had held responsible. the newest incident comes only a week after blasts rocked a russian air based on the annexed peninsula. if ukrainian forces were behind the explosions in crimea, it would mark a significant escalation of the war. cellphone video captures, a giant fire on the horizon. russian officials say the blaze engulfed,

10:14 pm
reinforcement of the 2 state solution and the destruction of the 1967 borders by the israeli side. what we did out there and the creation of the new reality. it didn't work in apartheid system. the one that is against us by the israeli side. and then to let it will not be in the service of security and freedom a feeling of on to subsistence, of course, regarding the you certainly politics. i have a different assessment at. so i want to say clearly that i won't use the word apartheid. and i don't believe it is right to use the term to describe the situation which is hard to produce. cycle doesn't up. so let's brandy doubly as political correspondence. simon young simon, plenty of friction there. what else did the 2 leaders talk about? yes, this was sir about an hour or so of talks between chance. the shelton jolts and president of bass and dare the chancellor said that he welcomed the ceasefire.
10:15 pm
between name is lam, a kid you had and east rail. of course they focused mainly on this recent escalation of violence in the occupied territories and dirge out. the shout said that he continues to support the plan for a t state solution. and there were differences between the 2 men as well. are bass calling for, for instance, for full membership or all of the un fur for palestine to the palestinian entity at the mom. they only have observe a status that something gemini doesn't really support or just the shout saying it's time to hold elections again after 18 years in palestine. so there were frank talks, but i think it's these comments about apartheid. and that really show, you know, these live press conferences can be dangerous for leaders. i unscripted their remarks may be made as hear about apartheid and there could be
10:16 pm
a need to challenge those remarks. or we can hear what happened again at the end of that press conference, a when again, or a president abass used a difficult term and gram tomorrow in since 1947. the ticket to the present day. and fin israel had hurried out 50 massacre in mel, definitely in 50 palestinian village of the elephant. dora like over in cities like dear, you're seen, tongue tura and fin the copper casem hunting holiday and many more 50 massacres. 50 holocaust, you and until to day every day, every day our people get killed by the israeli army and what we demand an end to that us
10:17 pm
at a simon. so the chancellor just walked away after mahmoud abbas talked about israel committing 50 holocausts. well, that's right, he looked unhappy while the president was speaking it, it seemed like he wanted to say something, but it looked as if further press advisors got in the way and ended the press conference abruptly. but of course, normally a german chancellor would not just allow the suggestion that is roused responsible for multiple holocaust to pass without comment in there. and there's been some ways created here in the response in berlin and in the media this evening with the boots . i took to the picking this up calling in an anti semitism scandal and also carrying a quote from johnston shots saying that it's unacceptable. these type of remarks
10:18 pm
from a german point of view. the christian democrat, leader says that the chancellors lack of reaction is on except to bill, so it just shows again the young, the difficulty that can arise when leaders speak unscripted at live press conferences, political correspondence, amman, young, thank you so much to the united states. now, today's primary alexa in wyoming are being seen as a test of how important and endorsement from former president donald trump, is for republican motors. this ahead of november's crucial mid term elections. wyoming has become a political battlefield. republican harriet hagerman, who was endorsed by donald trump, is challenging republican incumbent. las cheney. cheney played a leading role in the congressional committee investigating the january 6th attack on the capital and detail, easiest. paul joins us now from wyoming. st. capitol, cheyenne,
10:19 pm
the in. it's tell us more about these 2 candidates hagerman and cheney galleys cheney is really republican royalty. her father dick cheney was the vice president over sir george w bush. she has been in politics kind of for ever. so has she, she has been the congressman woman of wyoming since 2019, and really raised quickly to the top or in the republican hybrid she be. she was number 3 in the party before she was the one of the 1st republicans actually who really condemned president trump involvement in the 6 of january riots and that as we know, a turn to trump against her. and then here i support a terry attainment. she used to be an attorney in her own, a law firm here in the states capital in cheyenne. she was actually really close friends with j t at they kind of share the same very conservative political views. they called
10:20 pm
college other friends before donald trump endorsed her to run against this cheney on the 2 days primary. so those are. a the candidates, i take a look now at the state they want to represent and then come back to you. wyoming is known for its spice ons cowboys, and never ending skies. it is the least populated state and politically deep, red 70 percent voted for donald trump in the last election. the western state is hardly ever been in the focus of political attention, but bad has changed dramatically. wyoming is now a key, political battlefield because of the fight within the republican party. this chain is enemy number one for trump, loyalists ever since she became one of the 1st republicans to condemn the former president for his involvement in the storming of the capital. on january 6,
10:21 pm
we meet voters in a downtown coffee shop in the states, capital cheyenne, to understand the division, to what this means for the job in wyoming. if we go down this road is it becomes a party of extreme us, and we can't count on extremists to make solid policy. we really don't like that. wyoming really voted heavily for trump. and then she takes the path where she denies trump due process, and i think that's where america is, where we're at a point now where we have to vote for people and the character that they are vote for their integrity and, and let the policies work themselves out the way they always have at stake in this election, the battle between democratic institutions and the profound influence that president trump and his supporters still have among republicans. all right, so we have a bit of an overview in it's one of the polls say it's not expected to be
10:22 pm
a close race, is it? no, not at all. a hagueman is like 29 or so coins ahead of las cheney. so many, many voters obviously made up their minds and we just read poll said, even if any democrats, any independent wood road for las jamie, she wouldn't be able to win this race. so this is a clear cut. why is that? because of donald trump, and therefore this in the election is so crucial that whole united states actually is really watching it because it will prove whoever donald trump doors endorses it will win this election. and because, you know, it's also important to know that 7 of the 10 republicans who turned their back towards a donald trump and voted to evicted it. they, they lost their seats or actually a left, a politics because he is still so powerful within the g o. p and this will be the result tonight. it's not even so his name isn't in the,
10:23 pm
in the ballad to your it's not mainly about this cio heritage when it really is about the question, how strong, how strong is donald trump still within the republican party in his full thank you so much. almost 50 years after native american actress, 16 little feather was booed at the oscars. the academy of motion, picture, arts and sciences has apologized to her in 1973 actor marlon. brando sent little feather to refuse his oscar for best actor and protest at hollywood treatment and depiction of native americans. little feather was given just a minute to speak and received a mixture of applause and jeers. the academy now says that it recognizes her bravery little feather, responded in a statement saying, we indians are very patient people. it's only been 50 years. earlier i
10:24 pm
spoke to historian, katrina phillips who specializes in native american history. i asked her what this apology means to the community. i'd say it's one of those things where it's great to see and hear that apology. and it's wonderful to see that it's getting international international attention. but it also doesn't make up for the fact that, you know, as you said, she was essentially booed off the stage and basically blacklisted after this. and i don't want to speaker anybody other than myself, but the growing awareness around the representation and misrepresentation of native people in the film industry is definitely a shift in the right direction. yeah. can you give us a bit of context? what was the idea behind little feather speech back then? so by the time we get to the 1970s, we're kind of in the heart of the ongoing activism and advocacy movements that kind of characterize the 196970 s. you have the fisher movements in the pacific northwest, the creation of the american indian movement here in the twin cities and the
10:25 pm
takeover of alcatraz by the indians of all tribes. and we have all kinds of things, you know, takeovers at the bureau of indian affairs and mount rushmore, the creation of the national day of mourning. these things that are bringing attention to indigenous issues. and what's key here is that the oscar ceremony was shortly after the wounded knee occupations began. and that was already getting a lot of media attention. and marlon, brando had actually been arrested at efficient that was organized by the national indian youth council in 1964. and so it's not like he just kind of jumped on the bandwagon here. these were ideas that he was aware of. he understood and things like that. and the idea behind the speech, as far as i understand, was to bring attention to how poorly native people were being treated by the film industry. at has the treatment of native people by the film industry improved in those past 5 decades. i think it's getting there. there's a really long history of treatment of native people in the film industry. going all
10:26 pm
the way back to movies like stage coach and the searchers. and we've, we've seen better representation. you know, some of the revisionist westerns that followed we have the rise of films like the fast runner. and most importantly, we have the recent release of prey, which includes the comanche language and also has a version that's been dubbed in the comanche language. so you could actually watch the entire film in comanche and so i would say it's better, but there is still a ways to go. that was historian, katrina phillips from the mcallister college in minnesota. and before we go, here's a quick reminder of the top stories. we're following for you at this hour. the run around in kenya's presidential election has confirmed, he will contest the results, rayleigh, odessa has described the outcome as a blatant disregard of the constitution. he also said that the chair of the electoral commission acted unilaterally and illegally and declaring william roto
