or to mosque in the afghan capital kills 21. people lose dozens more. it's the latest attack since the taliban fees to power a year ago. i'm heat waves and droughts cause europe's trees to lose their lives. they. we have a special report on efforts to save berlin screen spaces. ah, ah, i'm fil gail. welcome to the program. we began and ukraine's the western city of lavelle where president vladimir savanski is hosting talks with un secretary general antonio good terrorist and turkish president reggie type early on. top of the agenda is the voters house situation. other stuff, a risha, a nuclear power station in southern ukraine, which russia now controls a plant has come under repeated shelling over recent weeks, also on the agenda,

our grain exports with millions of tons of wheat and may still stuck in ukrainian ports. well, the w correspondent, dorian jones, in a stumble, can tell us more about president, old ones, motivations. welcome, dorian. let's start with a talk sent. what is emerge from them so far? well, was slowly getting you the trip by trip information from these talks which were held him. it's very tight security. so we have what we understand is, up from the meeting, there was an agreement signed between the crate ukraine and turkey when he committed self. the reconstruction of ukraine. turkey is one of the major investors in ukraine before the conflict. and in fact, took his companies have suffered very severely from the conflict, but again turkey reiterated support to ukraine, saying that it will be a key role in the rebuilding of ukraine. while the ukranian president volume is a tribute to one visit the 1st visit by the president since the conflict saying

that they were sending up our message from a powerful countries at both sides. once a project, a very strong message from this meeting and turkey has emerged as an expected power broker in this conflict. why many ways, turkey all use it. it really isn't a very unique position. president. one has, along with very close ties with the ukranian president lensky has also had similar close relations with his watchman count for applied to me. and in fact, i met him twice in the last month, face to face to face talks while having regular telephone conversation. so talk, he really argues it is in an absolutely unique position when it comes to paying a possible facilitating role in bringing in for the complex talk point to success in working with united nations to broker appeal on the exporting of large amounts of ukraine, ukrainian grating traps in black sea onto the well mark. right. i'm just thinking

about what you said about turkey being a big investor in the reconstruction of ukraine. when sort of looking at the big picture, what one does? well, what is the benefit to turkey or indeed to present early one of putting a turkey or the president right at the center of these talks? well, i mean, turkey does have a very strong interest in bringing in to this conflict. it has close relations with folk ukraine and russia, and that conflict has put, talking a very difficult position where it is performing this delicate balancing on top of the back to talk to should businesses have suffered greatly from the ukraine conflict and lots of investments in ukraine so turkey is looking very much to an end to this conflict is also suffering from very high food prices. but on top of that, one really does see an opportunity of re establish himself as a global will play. and he has been leveraging his position and having good ties with russia and ukraine to argue that basically he's the only man in town,

but can ultimately facilitate a piece people outcome to this company if it's to be had. and also he's using the be successful in this grain feel as reiterating his position, that basic silencing critics on the west from his focus west. and i live over his close ties with booth and think it's very important to keep these close sizes because he ultimately offer a solution to and then to this is on behalf on a quick word on that grain deal which he was so central to, to brokering if it holding well, it definitely appears to be at the moment and in fact, it is accelerating more and more ships on. now. proceeding from the new cranium ports onto will markets in the 1st ship last night paused, assemble to the 1st african country, ethiopia, and africa. has been one of the kind of confidence that i've suffered greatly from the lack of ukrainian grain getting well market. so at the moment it does have to

be exceeding and precise very successfully. and in fact, the attorney, a good terrorist secretary channel, is to, to visit the sample office, visits ukraine to visit the operations in this time. well, which is cool. and they think this was great whoa. effort to get ukraine ingrained on to the world market. thank you. for dion, dion jones in istanbul. meanwhile, all source is searching for survivors of russian shelling in ukraine. second city harker. officials say at least 11 people were killed in a strike on an apartment building. the city in northeast and ukraine has been subjected to. continual russian strikes since the start of the war. another 7 people have been killed and shoving in the cities, south tift county neighbourhood, or cell terrifica is close to the front line and has been the target of russian, shedding nearly every day. argues mer, says a 1000 civilians have been killed in the city since the war began. t w's burg, due to sugar, was in south africa

a few days ago before the latest attacks. and sent this report. correct, subs bombed out schools. no gas, no water. this used to be a vibrant neighborhood. months of attacks as the russians tried to smash hockey into submission have left south africa district like this. since the start of rush has invasion salt, if guy has borne, the brunt of moscow's relentless shelling were taught. 90 percent of the inhabitants have fled the neighbourhood. he had certainly teeth like a ghost town. it's often the weekend poor who remained enduring months of attacks. leonid, tatiana vasqua, the only people still in their block, then miss how life used to be alert to the game. there were many children running around at that. it was fun living here. there we go. yes, we are many kindergartens and schools. everything was there. we were there doing what they can to prepare for winter and use this basement to high queuing area

alarms, why we're down there. we're shelly in the distance with us . the reason of my biggest fear is still that the russians could come for my 1st number to solidly so we can survive with no water with no electricity from wonderful. but this shooting the rockets hitting us the willis that frightens me. despite the fear, life is slowly returning to south africa. next door, workers fix water pipes for the least them at apartments. and patch up the smashed windows to prevent rain and snow making the damage choice, but they are not ready to start. full renovation. a member of harkey housing committee tells me the purpose of judging of some whistler. there is no sense in doing it now because the war is still going on more sooner and hockey is being

shelled every day again from us. and if for example, we were to replace the glass in the windows, we could even harm p born an attack, just a stroke running the bulletin. i'm older i'm, you're with reduced. but for ego said harshly, even basic repairs are a sign of hope. he invites us to his home, after weeks living in the metro station he and his wife all in our in leave to be bag. even though they have no windows or running water. with me as we don't know, what will happen in the winter, we hope there'll be some heating or we have to put more plastic in the windows. nothing eager says he's lucky. he's still being paid as a professional football coach, he proudly shows us his team. we are sitting here, nobody moves, these are a lot of them are gone abroad or are now in western crime that only 6 of the kids have stayed here. as i missed him so very much, i really hope they come back soon. and so then he and the others we met here in

south africa will concentrate on surviving and really hoping the front keeps being pushed further away. bracing for the coming winter. there is a more after those are big stores. the german chancellor, olaf sholtes is reducing sale stacks on natural gas from 19 to 7 percent damage to offset rising. household energy costs sanctions against russia. a push up fuel prices. security forces in saddam have used t gas to disperse thousands of demonstrators calling for civilian rule. the army stays the crew last year, military leader abdel for our born has pledge to step aside for a civilian government. with protesters refused to believe him. for as far as in algeria have killed 26 people, hundreds more have been moved to safety, with many victim suffering from breathing difficulties. helicopters are being used to put out the fires to afghanistan. the bombing at

a mask in the capital kabul has killed at least $21.00 people, including a prominent cleric, dozens more were wounded, and there's been no claim of responsibility. the so called islamic state has carried out a series of attacks in afghanistan since the taliban returned to power a year ago. oh, the mosque was crowded, and the bomb was powerful. dozens died and several children, i believe, to be among the wounded casualty numbers are expected to rise. security forces have now sealed off the blast seen, but this neighborhood is still in shock. and i thought the do of the i lost my cousin. he went to the mosque and then the blast happened. we only found out at midnight that he had lost his life. i've done this done has been hit by regular attack since the taliban seized power in august last year. many of them

have been claimed by the islamic state last week. the group claimed responsibility for killing a prominent taliban cleric at his religious center in kabul. but so far, no one has taken credit for this attack. at the hospital, the families of the victims are waiting for news. larry that are for better margin for so many people were killed all the amount of the margaret. some were even thrown out of the windows of the most amount of ever the all new bottom of that with mama resort. but the, those were brought to my family members. here up was, they were injured in the blast. we are done before we learned was go to the missouri the islamic state has primarily targeted minority communities such as she ight su, fees, and seeks. but their focus now seems to be widening just as the taliban celebrate their one year empower. last journalist, i mean the tv in kabul,

who's likely to be behind these latest attacks. ah, if you look at it over the last year, there has been a string of attacks on places of worship. whether that be magic belonging to people from the she is factored through me at the sushi sack or even anchored wire belonging to seek population and couple. and these have happened all over the country. i and, and almost all of the cases claim responsibility did belong to the so called islam state. so far, no one has claimed responsibility for this specific attack. but it does seem to fall in line with their pattern. ah, but the fact that no one is claimed responsibility for e a does racing questions. right. and as we mentioned, and in the report this, this week also saw the 1st anniversary of the taliban, a takeover of the country. a people reading anything into this timing

on. not necessarily because even leading up to the timing, there were there was a killing of another religious leader. i think what it does prove is that the lama camera is having as much of a problem as the former small republic in taking out an insurgency. the former sancho public had to deal with to tell a bond when they were that urgency, as well as the so called a slavic state. and now the em or it, the total bon, you know, is only left with it for the, from the state. but they to have been unable to take on this group because even if this specific instance isn't them, the truth is that they still pose a threat and that they are the biggest, they're the biggest threat remaining in the country at this point. right? why is it that these battle hardened 5 says seem so unable to provide the country with the one thing that you would have expected from the which is just security?

well, i think it's just more proof that it is very difficult to govern, right? it's very difficult to govern, very difficult to provide security because you know, you, yes, you came from the battle ground. but what experience do you have and actually you can destroy things. but what experience do you have in protecting them, right? what exchange do you have in running things and making sure that they operate correctly? and then the other thing is that this, again, if it does turn out to be them. but also just in general, the so called a small mac state, it moved from having specific bases and specific districts of the country into having sort of the cell that operate and live in certain areas for a while until they can plan and carry out the tax and then they move on, you know, another spect of the group will move on to another area and do the same thing over the course of weeks or months. so it's much more difficult to find them because it's a clear where they are specifically they could really be anywhere that they're like covert. so i thank you for that. i mean, i mean the tv and couple you're watching the w news life from berlin still to come

trees all over europe losing their leaves sooner than usual. so here in berlin efforts are underway to counter the facts of the hot tried some or so the leaders of serbia and kosovo have failed to resolve tensions at a crisis meeting in brussels. but they've agreed to continue talks in the coming days, kosovo broke away from serbia in 1999 and later declared independence leading to a long simmering border dispute. last month, the cost of in government said it would no longer recognize serbian identity documents and license plates. but it delayed the measure after the announcement triggered unrest or fears that open conflict could erupt again. last our brussels correspondent, marina strauss, whether there had been any progress to put it in very simple, bland words and nothing. there were no results or we were waiting for this press

statement for almost 4 hours. it was announced. i scheduled a lot earlier. and when a separation of the ears chief to a diplomat appeared in front to pass a little while ago, he basically said there were no results. and their cost of those and soviet leaders did not join this press conference. so yeah, we are not further on in this conflict. and what you're separate or so underlined is that of course it's very important to find a sort of solution to the current tensions, especially with a war already looming in europe, the war and ukraine. right? so remind us if you would of the background to these long standing tensions. so there's this fundamental conflict you've already mentioned. it is the casa vo sorta

or became independent from serbia in 2008. and a serbia never accepted this independence m o crossovers, independence and so we're still says that customer is part of its own territory. and this is because many serves consider cost of, of the region s or a, the birthplace of the serbian nation. so this conflict goes way back when ca civil and serbia were still path of former serbian dominated yoga. slave. yeah. so it in the early 90 ninety's crossover wanted to become independent. but serbia did not accept that and brutally cracked down on this movement. and ever since this conflict has not been resolved, and i mentioned it in the introduction of these latest proposals by cost of not to recognize serbian license plates and documents. are the protests against that proposal likely to lead, to escalate to anything more than an exchange of angry words?

we're maybe not looking at a full fledged war. but of course, there sears all over europe or so in the united states that there are violence. it could become a pretty dominant again in this region, and you've said it a, we've seen ad tensions or in the last couple of weeks over a license plate. this border a conflict shots were being fired produce were under st. no, of course. this was the 1st time we've seen attentions over the last 2 decades in this region. and then nato secretary general against rosenberg. interesting these said yesterday, are when both leaders arrived here in brussels. that the nate, her mission in class a lot less still on a to mission, deployed in kosovo, is actually ready to intervene if they consider the situation or the stability to be in the streets and to be jeopardized. thank of that, maria marina strauser brussels or had some all stories making headlines today.

estonia says it has repel the most expensive a cyber attacks for more than a decade. russian hacker group kill that says it blocked access to more than 200 state and private institutions is tony has removed soviet monuments in a region wherever an ethnic russian majority taiwan air force has been showing off, its anti aircraft weapons at china has carried out military exercises around the island, including over flying it's air defense zone. beijing claims taiwan as its own territory intentions have been running high since a recent visit of u. s. house speaker, nancy pelosi storm has caused severe flooding in new zealand. hundreds of families of had to leave their homes, a state of emergencies, enforce rivers of burst. their banks and roads have been washed away. moraneus forecast for the next few days. a trees are one of our main climate protectors removing carbon dioxide from the air,

releasing oxygen and cooling our city. but europe's intense heat waves and droughts this summer put trees under severe strain, the w's. so if you curvy reports on efforts to save them here in the german capital, brown crumpled up and blanketing the ground. many trees in germany's capital berlin are losing their leaves or are about to in some parts of iffy it looks almost as if autumn has come early, except it happens. but in this department for the environment told me the trees here suffering from climate stress. they're feeling the effect of the extreme heat of recent summers and the ongoing grounds. and they're not the only ones. it's a similar story all across europe. even in typically went to places like england find to say this is climate change in action is a high probability. we haven't exceptional drought now because of the,

the effect we have had on the climate change that we have. trees are responding to that drought by dropping leaps because without a squad or 2 they can't for to synthesize i'm so so the leaves are useless. it's an emergency response to protect themselves against against the arbitration. the consequences would be great. julie loosely, as an ecologist, living in berlin several years ago, she noticed the trees looking sick and decided to help them. i realized how much they needed water and how dry the summer was. and i know it's supposed to be raining way more usually, which is it's nice to have a sunny weather for the murder. but for the truth and the environment, it can be very hard for them clean. so same this type of weather over the years. she uses an open source app that maps out nearly all the trees in the city,

some 800000 of them. it gives volunteers an overview of what trees have been watered and how much they still need. so just looking at this is incredibly detailed, i guess both the makers and the uses of this app really appreciate how important trees are for us. yes, i think we're all realizing how important they are. they provide shadow to help cooling down the streets and also for pumping out oxygen deoxygenated. we're breathing. they also help absorb the carbon dioxide and the carbon dioxide, of course, being one of the greenhouse gases that contributes to global warming. yes, yes. certainly, there are many engage citizens in berlin, but unfortunately no where near enough for watering the trees, the authorities also don't have the capacity even during mild a summers. but ins, department for the environment is looking at ways to support trees and the longer term they include making better use of rain water, planting more climate, resilient species,

and working to boost public awareness of just how important trees are for our existence. so that more people start to look after them. some of your most famous rivers are running out of water as a hot, dry weather takes its toll. the river law in france attracts villages from all over the world. but this year there isn't enough water for the flat bottom barges to fairy taurus surround de la river. and france is famous for the historic castles dotted along its banks. it's also famously a shallow river, but with water levels at mere record lows. even the locals are shocked, then it was some, at least it makes me sad my place because it makes me sad because i grew up in the village. emily and i had never seen the river like this toy dog. we used to go to the water holes over there with the children and fish, because the water wasn't too high, a lunatic, but i should let no one. yep. now there's just algy and frogs laughed. does al gay

declining the reduction in water has been disastrous for much of the areas ecosystem. many islands i now connected to the shore, cutting off various waterways. fish have been robbed of the space they need to survive and reduced to living and pawns. scientists say the current low water level is something of a wider wake up call. it just need 100 at the low water level this year is quite exceptional. it's due to a major deficit in rainfall that began last winter g. it's led to many small tributaries of the lower to dry up or not. it's just your degree more with france currently facing severe droughts and several regions, interracial rain and flooding in others. many experts are calling for a rethink when it comes to the use of essential natural resources. as monkey magic it on climate change is underway. it's undeniable and it must encourage us to

reflect on our rules for sharing water resources. we must understand that we're all affected and 70 and with extreme weather events only set to increase in the future . the issue is not going away any time soon. our life house in the german port of bremar half m has tilted sideways, unofficial say it could topple over completely. part of the peer where it's located is sinking. authorities of band ships from entering the gas to river at the port because of the risk from the lighthouse, which is one of bram hoffman's best known landmarks, is remind of our top story at this hour. it creates a lot of me as the landscape has been holding talk, smith turkish president, reggie of typo on un returning general, antonio quoterush is a good to go for demilitarized zone around that reesha nuclear power plant and says that you have wants to scale up great exports from ukraine before winter. coming up

next to d. w. news, asia. and you study says the water source for 2000000000 asians are places collapse within decades. so what's being done to prevent much of china is sheltering under a wreck over the sweltering, under a record heat wave feeding cities industry life. so what is the chunk of those stones in just a moment? i'll be back at the top of the i'm with with

who a is the end of the pandemic in sight. we show what it could look like will return to normal. and we visit those who are finding it difficult successes

in our weekly coping 19 special. in 60 minutes on d, w a not just another day. so much is happening all at once. we take time to understand this is the day in depth look at current news, events analyzed by experts and critical thinkers. not just another new show. this is the day, week days on d, w. departure into the unknown. today this meets flying to a foreign planet. in the 16th century, it meant being a captain and setting sale to discover

a route. the world famous c. voyage of ferdinand magellan. i'd rather erase linked to military interests, erase linked to political and military facilities, but it was certain linked to many financial interests and adventure full of hardships, dangers and death 3 years. and that would change the world forever. my jillions journey around the world, starting september 7th on d, w. here watching b. w. news, asia thing up today. new research shows what scientists call in irreversible decline in fresh water storage in asia. the drying up of the tibetan plateau would impact billions of people across the continent will take a closer look. and in.
