7:04 pm
olympic games during this terror attacks. not only by not being able to protect the israeli delegation, but also by the failures by german police. poorly prepared german police that had this botched rescue attempt that went to prepare for that. and after that all of the israeli athletes were killed. so we had that was really, really strong. also it, israel president is a catholic and anchor spits the widow of one of the israeli athletes. she said that many of ask it says no closure for her, but she said that the closure will never come. there is always will be a hole in her heart, and that it was important for them to continue pressuring the german government to finally find an agreement on not only compensation, but also on see exactly to find out with a commission. what happened on the day and to finally take responsibility as a state of germany. and did we hear more from victims relative? how did they react to the apology?
7:05 pm
there were really moved by it and we could see some of them saying that that still needs to be more done. let's remember that they even threatened to boycott. this commemorative is ceremony today and 1st and felt were on 30 kilometers away from munich, where this abbeys were. this m, tara at sac, found a terrible ending when all of the athletes were killed. so there were several of them here. they threatened to by cod, if there was no agreement between the german government and the family members. and they asked israel to president ice, a catholic who is in germany to do the same. so was basically a last minute agreement found between the german government and the efforts. and there would have been a massive fiasco for germany. 50 years after this territory did not be his benjamin alfred gruber reporting from the memorial ceremony near munich. while after a bitter contest liz trust has been elected leader of britons. conservative party, and will become the u. k. next prime minister. the announcement that trust will be
7:06 pm
taking over follows 2 months of campaigning, sparked by the resignation of prime minister boris johnson. economy is said to be the new prime minister's most pressing tasks with the u. k. facing a cost of living crisis and spiraling energy charges will get an update from london in just a moment. but 1st, let's take a closer look at the woman set to come and print this new liter. let's try to 47 year old won a conservative seat in the british parliament in 2010 on her 3rd attempt since september 2021. she's been the u. k. foreign minister in the british government, although not without trouble humiliated in moscow by her russian counterpart, sir gay love ralph, who said it was like talking to a deaf person. she campaigned for britain to remain in 2016. but since the vote to leave became a hard liner on breaks it during this leadership campaign, she insulted the 1st minister of scotland and the french president. but trust
7:07 pm
rejects accusations that she's modeled her style. a former british prime minister, margaret thatcher, austin, before 1996, she was a prominent youth member of another british political party. we liberal democrat believe in opportunity for all she switched though to the conservative party while still at the university on the ongoing cost of living crisis cross promises, tax cuts unloaded system that will be no high portage, all prime minister. and after the corresponding barbara hazel in london, about the biggest challenge is less trust will face their calling. it's here in omni crisis because pretty much the whole economy is touched by. what's happening here in britain. it's a rampant inflation. it's an exploding gas price crisis. and the energy of the public health or resist close to finally break down their strikes already under way for ahmed train drivers and more strikes in public service from as their public
7:08 pm
servants demanding higher salaries because of the inflation that's already hit 10 percent are threatened. this is going to be the big winter of discontent. the worst that britain as seen in decades and less trust really has her hands full and a mountain to climb if she wants to sort of get over even the worse aspects off this on the crisis. so trust taking off as at a very difficult time has she said how she is going to deal with these problems as she didn't really say very much during and during that campaign that you referred to as she only talked about tech scouts, she says she doesn't believe in hand that she doesn't want to give money to people . everybody is responsible for him and herself that sir classic tori, conservative ideology. but she wants to cup texas, it generates growth and it's sort of try to grow the country out of this crisis.
7:09 pm
not this is a notion that many economists, hearsay is, is quite nonsensical. they fear that this is rather going to heat up inflation further plus taxes care at their tech scouts. of course, they are good for richer and a medium, a medium and we're better earning a population. but they do absolutely nothing for the millions who are scraping along on minimum wage here in britain. and they really do need help heating or eating that. so what british papers are asking at the moment, and many people say, if if push comes to shove, probably we're not going to do either neither heat or how does not have enough food to eat. and so she really has a tremendous task and we don't know exactly what how she wants to deal with and what she wants to do. and another big issue for the new prime minister, it will be i, it's neighbors in europe, relations between the u. k. and brussels have been tends to think that is going to change under las trust it, sir, if we're unlucky,
7:10 pm
it's going to change it to the worst because something that least tries has on her her inbox and on her list to do during the 1st weeks in office is she wants to strike down the northern ireland protocol for the part of the, of the brakes had contract. now that would mean that brussels would really sort of finally get angry was britain as to the country, probably, and maybe even enter into a full grown trade war. now, many people, of course, here are asking, is this the point of time? what you really want to annoy your closest neighbors and get into those fights and battles. was them about to trade in about the northern irish protocol and it so, but this is also part of her ideology. she has promised ed to the tory party during during that campaign that she is the most ardent breakfast tear even harder
7:11 pm
than vars johnson. and she wants to go through with it. but as i said, we don't really know what she will do in practice is the, the campaigning is over. she is now voted into office, and she may as well be the have to be much more pragmatic than she has foreseen during the last 2 months. of course, on it. barbara bay with hazel for us in london. thanks so much for that. and for the 1st time, the israeli army has said it, there is a quote high possibility that a soldier killed palestinian american journalist, sri, oc. they nearly 4 months ago in an internal investigation into her death. it said the shooting was accidental, and no one would be punished. he israeli army prob, found that it was probable abdulla they had been shot by a soldier who mistook her for a militant. the al jazeera journalist was wearing a helmet and a vest, identifying her as pressed when she was killed, while reporting from the occupied westbank in may. did these corresponded in jerusalem,
7:12 pm
tanya cramer has more. while it took the military now 4 months to come to this conclusion, what they're called the final findings of the investigation. and they told us today in a briefing for reporting that there took her into account. you know, the, the soldiers are where there are older materials to have forensic evidence, audio, video material and also both in the foreign media. now as you mentioned, they have concluded that there's a high possibility that misses well actually it's a quote was accidentally hit by idea of gunfire and quote, but they maintain that this could have happened while there was an exchange of fire with palestine emitted militants. although this account was numerous times questioned by palestinian witnesses on the ground, other colleagues and probably soon genesis were with her on that day when she was
7:13 pm
killed and also by those media investigations and other investigations and video material. now the official said that she was not intentionally targeted as a journalist that the soldier likely to be involved could have not properly seen her. now, she and her colleagues had you know, the flu, that labeled with price on it when she was hit by a bullet. now what follows all of out of it is that the israeli military advocate general's office also released a statement saying that it would not open an investigation into any soldier likely to be involved because they don't see. or there's no suspicion that's criminal offense was committed. so this is likely to be expected to be the end of the military investigation for now until you have heard a response to these findings from the family or more from her employer all to 0.
7:14 pm
well, absolutely. she really close family. put out a statement today saying that they were deeply hurt that they were just quoting here, frustrated and disappointed as well. that denouncement by the military was trying to obscure the truth and avoid responsibility for killing sharina. they also said again which they have said also several times before that this doesn't come as a surprise, and i think they speak a lot also what palestinians i talk to here in recent months. so too, they don't believe or they don't think that the israeli military can investigate itself as sharina blacklist. how many also calls on the u. s. administration. sharon was a you as palestinian as citizen to continue and to call for accountability and to open a, an independent and thorough investigation by the u. s. administration also by the international criminal court. and they met with the secretary of state antony
7:15 pm
lincoln in july, a calling for that investigation, and of course they said they won't stop until they get justice for sharina black live, of course wanted tanya kramer. thank you so much for your recording as your new update, as our coming up next is deal you news asia with my colleague of been for so please don't go away. he didn't want more news and analysis. you can of course find that on our website at d, w dot com. i'm clear richardson in berlin from the team. thanks for watching i we're all set.
