ah, ah ah ah, business dw live from berlin on the eve of ukraine's independent state. their affairs of fresh attacks from russia. u. s. intelligence says russia is planning to strike civilian infrastructure in the days ahead and the killing of the daughter of a close to, to now i promise colds in moscow. for revenge. also coming up shopping for anna g

chance all of shots is in canada to get access to new energy supplies. germany is racing to ease its dependence on russian oil and gas before the winter box. can canada help? thus, many countries across the world are struggling with unprecedented droughts and flooding. scientists say such weather extremes are very likely to become more frequent due to climate change, but also solutions. ah, i'm glad else as well come to the program. ukraine is on high alert on the eve off independence tech over possible russian attacks on civilian targets. the u. s. has also warned. russia is planning fresh str. the warnings come amid moscow's claim

that ukraine was behind the killing of daria davina. the daughter of a prominent russian nationalist keefe has denied any involvement, but is still expecting retaliation in the days ahead months raising ukraine's national flag. an annual tradition ahead of independence day. this year, the de marking independence from the soviet union also mark 6 months since fresh us invasion. mccauley now is that we will never recognize someone's colors on our land in, in our sky. we are always ready to defend our blue and yellow flag, said christie. c seniors, all i ask now to commemorate heroes who gave the lies for those colors. with a moment of silence, equally re dully leading up to independence day ukrainians had a strange exhibition destroyed russian tangs lined the streets of keith. mister only lurch my. they must know that history. the history is being born in britain. now, this is their age,

this is what they will tell. they are children. i don't want him not to know something. i want them to see what the horror of voice is sure. the case for him to remain that with me i was ours and i believe that we will definitely win. and in fact, it is very beautiful that we made such an exhibition because patriotic places come together and want to rush to go helpful and defend wichita, is it all the site, the dip of the fees and of them heights implicit, been you my video and what are some of them as a futile because it's been half a year already? sure, we want the war to and sooner, but it takes time. you have to understand it. even with hopes of a switched end to the war. there, if he is, the russia will step up its attacks. authorities in ukraine have banned bigger celebrations. well, u. s. officials, one of russian plans to strike ukrainian infrastructure. and there is also another concern, rushes federal security services accusing ukraine of being behind the killing of

daria davina. although keith has denied any involvement, had that has prompted coles in brush for retaliation. the w correspondent, roman, gone to ranko, is in kia for us, and i asked him whether the government, there is a concern that russia may use duncan as death as a justification for stepped up a tax on ukraine of the government. and kia is very concerned, but this has build up. so on it a very, very special day independence day in ukraine. russia is trying to destroy that independence as many here are. sure. and so this pressure has been building up for weeks, i would say, because ukraine presumably struck russian targets in crimea. russian military targets something which has never happened before. it's a new development and erm. there was no immediate retaliation from moscow to that than this killing of mentioned. which em makes tension even even higher. and then of course, the ukrainian government is urging it's, it's um,

a people who work for it or to stay home this whole week. the public transports will erm work only, and in 21 hours there will be no usual celebration here in the heart of give, which is, which is actually a hard blow to the cranium. no soul because it's a very special day. and maybe people wanted to come to the city center and her to listen to other people to speak to hear some music and, and to, to, to get some confidence. this will not happen for security reasons. there is a small hope that maybe this time russia would strike, not as bad as some fear because there were all righty. so some similar dates in the past, like the 9th of may, which is victor a day used to be in the soviet union. and in russia as well, or the 22nd of june, which was the day that not to germany and invaded the soviet union of those 2 symbolic days were also expected for russia to do something in ukraine. but then nothing special happened. so by special i mean, we are in war,

but there was no big rocket strike on on the capital. this is something that, that there is a small hope here in key. if that maybe this will not happen as well. but one cannot be sure. now with regard to the car bomb itself, how credible are these allegations by the russian intelligence service that the ukranian woman is behind this attack? well, it's hard, it's hard to check it because we have only one source, which is the russian secret service. and oh, in the pastor you had to be very careful to what they say of. there are many strange things here. a one is how fast, how quickly the investigation was, was done. just in a, in a, in a few days may be hours, then how quickly rushes president vladimir putin and was eager to condemn it and her to award a medal to, to the woman that was killed. and then am also from ukrainian point of view if ukraine should be behind it, which i personally doubt and many yankee of doubt. ah,

it is a very, very unwise for ukraine to, to do such an attack on russian territory which hasn't, hasn't been done by ukrainian, by ukraine before on the eve of this independence day. because of course, russia would be tempted to retaliate and our, our, or now our calls for the russian government and to retaliate harshly including the father of the victim himself. or said, i want not just revenge, i want victory. so this is being already used for russian propaganda. thank you very much. roman entre ranko from clear thanks. now the situation inside russia is becoming more tense for high profile opponents of the war and ukraine. intellectuals, artists, and television presenters who speak out have been targeted by authorities. musicians are banned from giving concerts and some have been forced to leave the country or refused re entry to w correspondent, europe,

russia. rto is in love fear where he made up with a ukrainian pop star. now bard from performing in russia, ah, a sea of lights amongst the audience in riga, we have come to see ukrainian singer svetlana la boda with my homeland ukraine is currently going through a big, dreadful, unjust war. ah. in svetlana labord, i used to live in moscow. she had millions of russian fans. but at the end of february, she publicly spoke out against russia's war on ukraine and turned her back on the country. yeah, i want to be on the right side of history under sight of good and truth. moscow's response was swift lobrado was prohibited from entering russia for 50 years. that

is just one of many examples of how moscow punishes permanent people, who publicly criticize the policies of the kremlin singers actors and to the hosts had been forced to leave russia. those who stay risk persecution or harassment like aloe vera from your katerina bork. with the bens, the singer vera marcell on the used to be married to a well known rational position politician who's currently in custody because of his open anti war stance. she herself has publicly protested against moscow's policies and is suffering the consequences. ah, schneider said last night, our concerts are being banned. we get suddenly removed from the festival lineup. sometimes people just ring up a few hours before a performance and tell us that we can't play with the more serious the political

situation and russia becomes the more openly the authorities banner concerts, desolate and said, no one is officially blacklisted. but the names of musicians seen as undesirable a tear in the media, rushes low house of parliament is now going one step further. it glance to punish officials who employ or engage such critics as they even included the hat of russia's channel one and the bolshevik director. julia, these civil servants are on the wrong side of history. we want to bring them to reason that i was me. ah, svetlana lobo dot is convinced that she's on the right side. she, thanks her fans in to your, for their support. what, what about have hands in russia last year, the still not m. russia has gone badly astray. your new which new, which is at a town is a man who led the country in the wrong direction. philip catherine,

and as long as people there don't grasp that nothing good will come of this country with and until then performances like this will only be possible outside of russia. that's a quick look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. malaysia's top court has upheld ex prime minister in the jeep results. conviction for his partner, corruption scandal, result was a key figure in the plundering of a sovereign wealth funds. he will begin his 12 year sentence immediately and is the country's 1st former prime minister to be jailed supporters of argentine as vice president? christina fernandez de kirsten. i have rallied outside her residence after prosecutor saw to impose

a 12 year prison sentence on christina is facing charges of corruption from her earlier term as president, which she rejects as political politically motivated. a verdict is expected later this year. finished prime minister, santa marian has tested negative in a drug test, which she took to n speculation over her private life. marion defended her right to enjoy, have free time after the publication of a video showing her celebrating at a private party. she said her capacity to work had not been in the same car full of the last. germany is trying to end its dependence on russian gas as winter approaches. german chancellor, all of shots is on a visit to canada, shopping for energy. canada currently supplies little of its fossil fuel to europe . both countries are looking to expand that partnership, but it looks like in the short term, canada can't offer much help. he's on a shopping trip,

but there's nothing here to buy. at least not yet. chancellor, all love shows is in canada, looking for new energy suppliers, as germany reduces its reliance on russia. we are working hot to become independent of disgust supply, and we are doing a lot of investments to make it happen. and we are doing it as fast as ever possible. never such an infrastructure has been built in germany in that a short time and other. so canada has lots of natural gas, but currently few ways to exported to germany or prime minister just intruder only promised to remove regulation to speed up for a future gas exports. so we are in a situation in the short term where we will do what we can to contribute to the global supply of energy by increasing our capacities in the short term

and explore ways to see if it makes sense to export l n g. and if there's a business case for it to export l n g directly to europe. so no gas for now, but may be later. another option, the chancellor is chasing, so called green hydrogen. canada's renewable power could be harnessed to create it . the german latest to it will continue with a visit to a remote town in canada as far north east, where green hydrogen technology development is underway. i asked it of his chief political correspondent melinda crane. if the german chancellor failed to secure any new source of gas to get his country through the winter, that is pretty much the bottom line, though, as we heard their prime minister trudeau was polite about it. and he did promise that canada will explore the options. but he mentioned the business case there by making it clear that he sees the options. problematic. canada's gas is mostly in

the west of the country, but it would have to be shipped to europe from the east of canada requiring a major investment in pipeline infrastructure. and given that canada has committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and coming years, it's unclear that that infrastructure investment would pay off. the candidate is maybe, is certainly bad news for germany. economics minister hubbard has been working tirelessly to wind germany off of russian energy, as you said, including by commissioning floating liquefied natural gas terminals in the north of germany to receive gas from other sources. but where's it to come from? berlin has previously reached out to norway and took a tar that they were not much more accommodating. then mr. tudor melinda crane that reporting no unprecedented droughts and heat waves have put water scarcity into sharp focus worldwide. more than 2000000000 people lack access to clean water and

climate change is likely to increase the frequency of extreme weather events. let's have a look at the impact that water scarcity is having in countries around the world. right now. drought has ravaged northern mexico where farm animals are dying due to lack of water harvests have been disrupted. and fisheries have been cold as the country experience, one of the worst droughts in more than 30 years. in hungary lake surf turned into patches of dried mud and low water supplies and putting wild life at risk. farmers in the region worry that they may not have enough green pasture to feed their livestock. many european countries are facing their drives period on rec, hold, and drought has also dried up much of china's largest fresh water lake. the poor young lake, which connects to what is the world's 3rd longest river, has been reduced to a quarter of its usual size, as water levels continue to drop farmlands in one of china's he rice,

growing regions are under threat of 4 years ago. cape town was facing the threat of day 0. that's the day when it's water was expected to run out . that thankfully never actually happened because people saved water. and finally the rains came. but now another town has the same problem. cabell car, formerly port elizabeth in eastern cape, has experienced 7 years of drought. our correspondent, our increase reports, not a drop in the tap in simple kazi tim bonnie's house for 7 months. now the supply has run dry. on the arrival of the water truck bring some relief, but tim bonnie knows that it also spills hard work.

she has to carry the water all the way home for herself and her 4 grandchildren. yeah. who love me a getting sick because of carrying this water every day? my jones hurt, i have body pains, i have to take painkillers to sleep or go to the clinic, especially furth, elderly people. the situation is painful. any papers with that is that sad. control . this dam should provide water for her home, but it's almost empty. it's only filled to less than 15 percent of its capacity. only 4 percent is usable water rainfall is getting more and more sporadic, and it isn't as heavy as it used to be. for 7 years the area has been in the grip of a historic droughts. but while climate change certainly plays a role mismanagement, decaying infrastructure and a lack of maintenance, certainly due to it, is estimated that about one 3rd of the water supply are lost due to leaking pipes. the scale of the problem is clear to see all over town. residents report about

200 leagues every day. the city has employed additional staff for repair walks and new wells are being drilled. ground water is supposed to help black the gap that the missing rain water has left the head of water distribution for the municipality says. but why didn't all this happen much earlier? the, quite a number of reasons are some of them, it's financial arrangements are obviously from the study, the point of view. we have the competing priorities from a service delivery perspective. and in some of with a versus financial versus the directed to other projects, a lot of people we talked to actually blame lumens of healthy for the current situation. at this point in time, my focus is to be able to deliver the metro and push the day 0 and o our efforts, you know, according to our 3rd day 0, that's the day when all water reserves will be used up. the worst case scenario to

avoid it. each resident is supposed to use no more than 15 liters of water per day, with a municipality threatening to impose strict controls. in the poor neighborhood of simple kazi, tim, bonnie, people feel they have been given empty promises for months. even the water truck that is a lifeline for so many isn't organized by the municipality. it comes from an 8 organization called gift of the give us a willing eunice bally, i blame the municipality, but asked the politicians when it is time to campaign for votes. you find a lot of them here asking for votes, but when the time comes to deliver services to the people they are nowhere to be found. when we need water, they are nowhere to be found like are called people cause it and bonnie has given up hope in politics. her only remaining hope that drain may fall soon, so she will get a break from the hard work of fetching water. let's dig a bit deeper into this with fred hats, a man he is

a water expert at the pot. some institute for climate impact research here in germany. thanks for joining us. fred. a day expect more regions across the well to reach day 0. the day when all local reserves of clean water, i used up. yes, i expect this good afternoon. first of all, next texas and this is all the trend we already see. but by and from google observations, for example, satellite details, they show us that we have less fresh water available as a global level which stored in fresh water stored and rivers in leaks stored in the sides and growing bottom entrances ongoing trent. it is possible under climate change conditions it has to do with the increase of as a global temperature. and since we expect of course, at this for some time being able to go on to the temperature increase and this but also also written water problems. so explain to me the water does not leave the

planet where does it go? no, for example, there's more water stored in the atmosphere, the cost of increasing temperature. we have more of a po, transportation, and more water. and he was here and the warm atmosphere also keeps the water and it might be that in some areas we have also, and this has to do is have been systems and the seasons and all that more intense potentially see also this trend already more that's more erosion also in some areas and torture, just just water, fresh water available in reservoir. we have lakes and rivers and, and toys. and now in your report, published this week says that almost half of europe is at risk of drought this summer. how high is this risk? what does this mean? i would say is, is really high. the course in europe is actually one of the continents affected

most at the moment. and it is not only so that we have this broad as a long lasting drawn director. the 1st big up on see and 20182019 started to start on 20 again. so it is an accumulation of effects here where we are in the i am in the burden bandwalk. germany be, it is of generally be a, for example, the mis suppose. petition if we sum up it up over the last 5 years, it is a petition upon you machine, which we don't have it. so what must be done? what can be done to adapt to all these changes in the water cycle? as a 1st of all, i said we have to contact climate change the course to water crisis, but at christmas bas, ongoing global temperatures. but of course, we have to adapt what to what happened. now what happens now and is this, for example, we have to strengthen our water infrastructure and this is not done in, in a. yeah,

of course. and, but we have to have but be a but we have to start now and i'm looking for example, a touch of skills here, very important, a forests and another culture. and for example, we see that that impacts on that mismanagement of land also gets for example, and been be a forest by us and me to renew, but we see datsuns millennium. but we have a project and will you send prostate us and the end to less count quarter, we charge and to more service one, most of us run off comes lotion comes to slots. so the lens deep has to be adapted enter or to looking at cities. for example, here the term we lost a line there. fred had some of them from the potsdam institute for climate impact research. thank you. i'll draw another stream, weather events highlight the ro,

water management place to ensure adequate water supplies is look at some of the solutions that experts are proposing for the u. k. is current water shortage. parched fields. it's not what you would expect to find in northern england, but this is a summer of unprecedented heat and now of drought. climate change is making these extreme weather events more frequent. this is something different now this summer, so i think it's down to all of us to think about where water comes from in it. when, when you turn on the tap or you have a shower, that water comes out of rivers like this. that means we're taking it away from the barman or taking it away from a farm or that could be using it to irrigate or harvey's crops that we will need. water scarcity is also an issue of distribution. something that can be addressed through improved infrastructure. we have enough water in this country,

it's normally in the west and in the winter. and we need investment in infrastructure to have it in the right place at the right time. so there's enough water for people, food, and the environment. this will not be the last drought. agriculture uses 70 percent of accessible fresh water globally. drawing more and more water from the environment is creating mass, biodiversity loss, environmental as say, it also creates a cycle of less water overall. for people and the environment. we need to bring back the wetlands that we've lost across our countryside, around might have center. these have disappeared in the last a 100 years. we need to make space for that water. we're going to see increasing conditions like this and we will see crops failing if we don't take these kinds of actions. as the u. k. registers its hottest summer, every measure will be needed to combat climate change and growing. washer scarcity . now scientists at nasa have released new images off the planet

jupiter. they are describing the pictures that providing never seen detail of the biggest planet in the solar system that are jupiter's famous, great red spot shown here in white as well as feigned rings around the planet. the images were originally photographed in infrared and then colorized afterwards. there were taken by the james web telescope, which was launched into space just last year. and that's it from me and the new steam up next kick off. as all the bull dislike action about this export watch. ah ah, with

a pulse with the beginning of the story that moves

us and takes us along for the ride. it's all about the perspective. culture information is either you news or double you made for mines. images that have been etched into memory. an unleashed mon gives free reign to its hatred. everything for the 30th anniversary of the rostock riots and the legacy. how could it come to this, the biggest racist attack and post through germany? foreigners out, close up. in 60 minutes on d w o.

music, 50 years ago, the intuition gathering of peace and cooperation becomes the scene of a horrible tragedy. arab terrors, armed with sub machine guns, went to the headquarters of the israeli team and immediately killed one man. and that this will be the last time. so in the night, they're all gone out. i witnesses experienced the terrible events and this the world should not forget the long shadow of the 1970 to olympic massacre. stuart september, 3rd on d. w. everything on our planet fools downwards towards the us sent us. we experienced this gravitational pull all the time without gravity. the earth wouldn't have any atmosphere. that means no oxygen to breathe without gravity. we wouldn't have any other planet stars.
