[000:00:00;00] ah ah ah ah ah, business dw news live from berlin on the eve of ukraine's independence day. fears of fresh attacks from russia. u. s. intelligence says rush, i was planning to strike civilian infrastructure in the days ahead. and the killing of the daughter off, close,

put in allied prompts calls and mosque out for revenge. also coming up, shopping for energy. chancellor. all of shows is in canada to get access to new energy supplies. germany is raised to ease its dependence on russian oil and gas before the winter camp, canada pal and many countries across the world are struggling with unprecedented droughts and flooding. scientists say such weather extremes are likely to become more frequent due to climate change, but they're also solutions. ah, i'm glad elf is welcome to the program. ukraine is on high alert on the eve of independence day, of a possible russian attacks on civilian targets. the u. s is also warned,

russia is planning fresh strikes. the warnings come as moscow claims that ukraine was behind the killing of daria dugan up the daughter of a prominent russian nationalists. kia has denied any involvement, but it's still expecting retaliation in the days ahead. was raising ukraine's national flag, an annual tradition ahead of independence day. this year, the de mocking independence from the soviet union also marks 6 months since fresh us invasion mccauley. there was 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 secretary, it dully leading up to independence day ukrainians. had a strange exhibition destroyed. russian tangs lined the streets of keith,

literally lecture why they must know the 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 actually shook the case for him to renew the tip of each thing of his eyes. 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 help or, and defend wichita, is it all the say that if a vc seemed of em heights implicit, been you my video and what are some of them 0 cuz it's been half a year. ready? sure. we want the war 2 and sooner, but it takes time. you have to understand 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, us officials, warner frosh and 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 of o. keith has denied any involvement her death has prompted coles in brush awful retaliation. the w correspondent, a brahman going to rank up, is in clear for us, and i asked him earlier whether the government there is concerned that russia may actually use to get us death as a justification for stepped up the talks on ukraine of the government and kia is very concerned, but this has build up. so am it a very, it's a very special day independence day in, 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 ukraine in government is urging it's, it's m a people who work for it or to stay home this whole week. the public transports will work only on 1021 hours, and there will be no usual celebration here in the heart of give, which is, which is actually a hard blow to the crenan. nas soul because it's a very special day and maybe people wanted to come to the city center and 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 already 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. 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 cliff 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? 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. one is how fast, how quickly are the investigation was, was done just in the, in a few days, may be hours then how quickly rushes president vladimir putin am, 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 henkie 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 they are 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 here. thanks. the situation inside russia is becoming more tense for high profile opponents of the war and new crime. 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. d. w correspondence. zurich rossetto is in latvia where he made up whether ukrainian pop stop. now bard from performing in russia, ah, a sea of lights amongst the audience in riga, we have come to see ukrainian singular svetlana alada, my eastern, my homeland ukraine is currently going through a big, dreadful, unjust war. ah, indeed, 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 lobo. dar was prohibited from entering russia for 50 years. that is just one of many examples of how moscow punishes prominent people, who publicly criticize of the posters of the kremlin singers actors and divvy hosts had been forced to leave russia. those who stay risk persecution or harassment like aloe vera from your cut hearing book. with the bench 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. sheep herself has publicly protested against moscow's policies and is suffering the consequences. ah, internet said the 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 authority's been our concerts desolate and said, no one is officially blacklisted. but the names of musicians seen as undesirable a tear in the media. rushes lo, house of parliament is now going, wants to her that it plans to punish officials who employ or engage such critics as they even included the hat of russia. channel one and the ball size direct on jewelry. the civil servants are on the wrong side of history. we want to bring them to reason that i was with the atlanta local. die is convinced that she's on the right side. she, thanks her fans into europe for their support. what, what about her hands in russia? last year,

the still not catherine. russia has gone badly astray. you knew what she knew? what she was at a town is a man who led the country in the wrong direction. feel i did the thought and as long as people there don't grasp that nothing good will come of this country with this thing. and until then, performances like this will only be possible outside of russia. let's have a quick look at some of the other stories making headlines today. ukraine's president vladimir zalinski opened an international conference on crimea, vowing to restore ukrainian rule over the region that was annexed by russia. he was joined by polish president andre judah in chief german chancellor. shots and canadian prime minister just intruder, where i'm all with several world leaders virtually joining,

joining together the crimea platforms. malaysia's top court has upheld x prime minister naji browse acts conviction for his part in a corruption scandal. result was a key figure in the plundering of a sovereign wealth fund. he will begin his 12 year sentence immediately and is the country's 1st former prime minister to be jailed. italian coast guard has rescued the crew and passengers of this luxury yours which sank in the mediterranean. just off the coast of catanzaro marina. the yacht came into difficulty 15 kilometers from the coast. all 9 people on board were safe. there was not immediately clear what cost to ship to sink. now, germany is trying to end its dependence on russian gas as winter approaches. german chancellor all of shows is on a visit to canada. shopping for energy, canada currently supplies little of its fossil fuel to europe. both countries are

looking to expound 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 olive shoals is in canada looking for new energy suppliers, as germany reduces its reliance on russia. we are working hard 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 and that a short time there. so canada has lots of natural gas, but currently few ways to exported to germany or prime minister just intruder early 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 is renewable power, could be harnessed to create it. the german latest tour will continue with a visit to a remote town in canada as far north east, where green hydrogen technology development is underway. earlier my off the w 2 political correspondent melinda crane. if the german chancellor actually failed to secure any new source of gas to get his country through the window, 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 ha, beck 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 is it to come from? berlin has previously reached out to norway and to could tar, but they were not much more accommodating. then mr. tudor, at our later today, sholtes and trudeau will visit

a propos hydrogen production slide new foundland. what is germany hoping for there, and when can anything happen? well, germany's gas problem is not only about heating homes and keeping citizens warm, but it's very much about industrial output and jobs. this country's export power house of an economy is very energy hungry. much hope is in fact being placed in green, hydrogen, that's hydrogen fuel produced with renewable energy sources as an alternative to natural gas. and in fact, it seems that much natural gas infrastructure could be repurposed for hydrogen, but scaling up to a level that could sustain german industry is an expensive, long term undertaking. this hydrogen deal that mister schultz and mr trudeau will seal later today is tellingly named energy partnership for the future. and it won't go into effect until 2025. so it's not going to heat german homes or fuel german

factories this winter. and that means that the german government is still facing a major challenge. you said is that the deal is going coming into effect in 2025. what does that mean by then? that technology will be available. that is not clear. it is certainly an available now in pilot form, but scaling it up is an extremely complex and expensive undertaking. so i think there are a lot of bugs to be worked out, although hydrogen is of course much height as one of the most promising energy sources in the longer term linux that thank you very much. unprecedented droughts and heat waves have put water scarcity to shop focus worldwide. more than 2000000000 people like 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's gust is having in countries around the world right now. drought has, for example, ravaged northern mexico where farm animals are dying from a lack of water harvests have been disrupted. and fisheries have been called as the country experience, one of the worst droughts in more than 30 years in hungary lakes have turned into patches of dried mud and low water supplies. i'm putting wildlife at risk. farmers in the region worry that they may not have enough green plastic to feed their life store. many repeating countries are facing that rise period on record. 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. water levels continue to drop farmlands. and one of

china's key rice growing region on the thread now, 4 years ago, cape town was facing the threat of days 0. that's the day when it's water was expected to run out. that's never actually happened. thankfully because people saved water and the rains finally arrived. but now another town has the same problem. rebecca formally port elizabeth in the eastern cape as experienced 7 years of drought or corresponded utterly increase reports. not a drop in the tap in simple kazi tim bonnie's house for 7 months. now the supply has run dry for the arrival of the water trek 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 getting sick because of carrying this water every day. my jeans hurt, i have body pains, i have to take painkillers to sleep or go to the clinic. especially for of elderly people. the situation is painful. sandy paint bones is that is, does that include all 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 works, and new wells are being drilled, ground water 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. some of them in financial arrangements are obviously from the study, the point of view. we've got 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 our efforts, you know, i'm a going to a 3rd day 0. that's the day when all water reserves will be used up the worst scenario to avoid it,

each resident is supposed to use no more than 50 liters of water per day with a municipality threatening to impose strict controls. in the poor neighbourhood of simple kazi, tim vonnie, 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 givers implant municipally. i blame the municipality, but after 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 i'll call people cause it and bonnie has given up hope and politics. her only remaining hope that rain may fall soon, so she will get a break from the hard work of fetching water. a little earlier, i spoke to fred hunterman,

he is the water expert at the potsdam institute for climate impact research in germany. i asked him if he expects more regions across the world to reach d 0 expects us. and this is also a trend we already see worldwide and from global observations. for example, satellite details issue us that we have less fresh water available as a global global leverage stored in fresh water stored and rivers and lakes stored in the sides and grown autumn entrances. as an ongoing trent, it is possible under climate change conditions. it has to do was the increase of as a global temper shined sensor. we expect of course, after this, for some time being will go on home to temperature increase under sports, us or it water problems. so explain to me the water does not leave the planet where, where does it go? no, for example, the desk more bought or stored in the atmosphere,

the cost of increasing temperature. we have more difficult transportation and more bought and he was here and the wal mart atmosphere also keeps the water. and it might be that in some areas we have also, and this has to this have been systems and the seasons and all that more intense prestige. we see also this trends already more that's more erosion also in some areas and told her just just for to fresh water available in reservoir. we have lakes and rivers and, and, and science and chrome. now in a you 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 it was really high because europe is actually not on the continent effect at the most at the moment. and it is not only so that we have this is

a long lasting for the 1st big on see. and 20182019 started to start talking 20 again. so it is an accumulation of effects here where we are in the i am in burden bandwalk, germany. we use of generally be a, for example, the miss suppressed petition. if we sum up it up over the last 5 years, it is the presbyterian upon you, the g, which we didn't have it. but how to mother from the potsdam institute for climate impact research. thank you. i'm from this planet to another one scientist at nasa. have released new images of the planet jupiter, that describing the pictures as providing never seen detail of the biggest planet in the solar system. they show jupiter's famous, great red spot shown here in white, as well as faint rings around the planet. images were originally photographed and infrared, and then colorized. afterwards,

they were taken by the james web telescope, which was only launched into space lost here. he watching dw news, he is a reminder off the top story we are following for you at this hour. keith is on high alert for fresh russian attacks on the eve of ukraine's independence stem. us intelligence says russia is preparing strikes on civilian ukrainian infrastructure . russia is also blaming you, praying for the killing of the daughter of a prominent russian nationalist give is denying any involvement. and germany's chance the olaf shows is in canada, meeting with his counterpart, the disgust expanding that countries energy partners, germany hopes to boost gas supplies. as it tries to end, it's depended on russian fossils watching the w news. but don't forget,

a race for white power between spain and portugal. a race linked to military interest, the race sinks to political as military prestige, but also linked to many financial changes. and adventure full of hardships, dangers and death. 3 years that would change the world forever. magellan journey around the world starts september 7th on d. w. with this on emblem in house is an ordinary apartment block in the city of rostock, in 1992, it was the scene of one of the worst outbreaks of racial violence in jenny's
