lakes along the mediterranean, ah, it's waters connect people over many cultures seen of muster and to far dual corinne drift along with exploring modern lifestyles and mediterranean where has history left its traces, leading people hearing their dreams, metty to me during this week on d. w. this is d, w use asia coming up to date, concerns about north korea, firing a ballistic missile over japan. the 1st such launch in almost 5 years and the longest day that the united states and south korea condemned the test as dangerous and reckless. how worried should we be about north korea's next move?

and indonesia, navy is accused of demanding bribes from ships. it said would leap illegally anchored in its waters. the ordeal from one captain held captive for half a year. ah, i beg was all and glad you could join us. south korean and american fighter jets have carried out precision bombing drills in response to north korea, firing a ballistic missile over japan. the launch plan to tokyo to activate its me, saw the lud system and issue a rare warning for people to take shelter. it comes in a record year of weapons tests by pyongyang, which recently revised its laws to declare itself an irreversible nuclear power. ah morning siren sound out of the north of japan passengers on their morning commute had to wait as trains were halted. while

outside lance speaker, announcements warned people to take shelter. ha, it's the 1st time in 5 years that north korea is fired, a missile over japanese territory. north korea has fired a ballistic missile. it flew over our country and we believe it fell in the pacific ocean. it's another barbaric act after a series of ballistic missile launches and we strongly condemned. this is the 7th time a north korean missile is flown over japan. but tokyo said this may have been the longest yet. the ballistic missile travelled for about 4600 kilometers before crashing into the pacific ocean, fired in a different direction. that would be far enough to hit the u. s. island of graham. the u. s. was quick to condemn the launch and called it dangerous and reckless. and

south korea vowed a tough response. i don't need to more on the heck pl such reckless nuclear propagation. we will face a resolute response from our military as well as our allies and the international community, or non hello thalia junior high pushing north korean leader kim john own has long been working on expanding the countries missile program. and it's nuclear capabilities. last month, north korea declared itself in nuclear weapons state ruling out any possibility of d nuclear as ation. military experts believe this message was an intermediary range, ballistic missile, most likely of our song 12 shown in these images of a north korean military parade from april. this year the miss, i launch comes after japan, south korea in the u. s. conducted naval exercises together for the 1st time since

2017 south korea. and the us have been warning that pyongyang is preparing to conduct another nuclear chest, which they say could happen soon after north korea's ally, china holds a communist party congress on october 16th shadow carol is from the news and analysis outlet. the korea risk group, the north koreans have never managed. the fire broke it this far. how concerning is that? i think by itself is not particularly concerning. the missile we believe is to have been tested today is very likely a song, 12 intermediate range ballistic missile. it's been tested over japan on at least 2 occasions in the past. the main difference here is that the range of it is, has gone up by about a 1000 kilometers. so it's not by itself concerning for the distance, but more so for the timing. given that there's been no least

direct a attack or provocation by the us, south korea, japan on north korea that can be clearly seen just yet to have triggered this. what is so alarming about the timing? well, it's kind of come out of nowhere we've, we've had and all of a sudden in the last few weeks, 5 or 6 rounds of north current michelle testing, what we did see in august was us south korea military drills taking place for the 1st time since trump's piece diplomacy of 2018. we anticipated reactions like this, then they didn't happen. well, we have seen in the last few days as vice president, kamala harris of the u. s. visiting south korean japan making anti north korea statements if you will. and we've also seen the u. s. introducing as fast so called strategic assets to the korean peninsula. about 10 days ago the u. s. s. ronald

reagan, an aircraft carrier, has also been some other minor trilateral submarine anti submarine trainings. now, altogether, these may be why north korea has decided to do this because those 3 things basically comprised the most stride and political and military threat the nor has faced since the trump era of foreign fury. 2017. and we're hearing south korean and us war planes already conducting bombing drills in response. what is the risk of escalation here? yes, so this bombing drills right now, we may see a missile launches into one of the ocean areas near south korea tomorrow. that could be unilateral sanctions. the risk is north korea will use the steps and retaliatory actions to basically further justify increasing as next step,

potentially even to a new killer test. we've been worried about a north korean 7th nucular test. since may, it's not happened. i could see a situation where a u. s. and south korean, a response may be japanese to, is even used to publicly justify. north korea is much anticipated 7th nucular test . so what needs to be done to de escalate? what's going on right now? that's a tough question. ready for the political a lead is to determine, but in some ways it's hard to do politically by, in some ways ignoring this may be the best option, not making a big song and dance about it. because we know very clearly that north korea likes to respond far with fire. and if, if the u. s. and rock go to fall with responses in the next 24 hours,

it could greatly trigger problems. i just point out that about 34 weeks ago, the north koreans revealed the nuclear doctrine, the method that the scenarios in which they use nuclear weapons. and there was some very worrying and vague language contained in that doctrine. and it will be important for the u. s and rock not to step over any gray red lines that the north koreans seem to painted during that doctrine. to avoid the threat of, of north korea using nuclear weapons in some way at carol from the korea risk group . thanks very much for being on d. w, news, asia thank you. to indonesian football officials have been suspended for life and over a dozen elite police officers are under investigation over last. we can stampede at a stadium in east java. the government says the devil now stands at 130 free fans

seized from their ships. they say they were falsely charged for anchoring an indonesian waters without a permit, while waiting to wait a port in singapore. several alleged, they were held at an indonesian naval base in bottom until their companies paid bribes of hundreds of thousands of dollars for their release. those whose companies didn't pay were convicted and sent to prison. g carter denies the allegations a don rate just over a year ago. steered glen meadow keen on life off course for indonesian navy officers boarded his oil tanker and accused the ship captain of anchoring without a permit in indonesian waters. they have guns. so we met on the lives and then they checked the documents and later on the said yodeling donation waters . the filipino father of 4 was seized and taken to

a naval base and baton island. he soon discovered he was just one of dozens of captains detained. there some were released after their companies paid as much as $400000.00. but mad okey nox, as his firm declined. so he remained captive a little. there wasn't or bully was up and i was full about know. oh what's happening? but the little only thing, oh, i think that is her something like illegal piracy. you have to be running because one of the up there is to their mother then upon the up on my road. well explained to me that nobody at the p as soon as possible to the given going all of them all money, sullivan, money matter. geanargo was seized more than 22 kilometers from the main indonesian coastline. that's the standard distance considered to be international waters. but indonesia is made up of over $17000.00 islands, territorial waters could be drawn further out. and this murky definition used to

justify the seizures. and it seems to me that it's, you know, in terms of, from probabilities that this, this is an, or was certainly some kind of exercise by the indonesian navy, or backed by the indonesian navy ah, and to extort money from shipping us. the indonesian navy has denied requesting or taking bribes and then he gives us the data we never asked for money or payment the law because everything we do with follows the legal procedure as a walk. that if i go through that with an oregon, i believe if you hear anything about it, if i as yup, are please report to me who they are about guy. whether it's just of certain parties or some people who attempt to weaken redial the indonesian navy mccullough . yeah. captain mcgee nog is now back in the philippines. he was finally released after more than 6 months, which included time in prison,

held alongside murderers and rapists. the once proud captain is trying to reorient his life and process the memories of an ordeal that still keep him captive. i ben fizzle, and i'll be back. same time, same place to morrow. in the meantime, you can get more stories on d, w dot com slash asia or on our social media channels. to you again, see people in trucks injured one trying to see the city center more and more refugees are being turned away and the water families, planes on the taxi. the reason for these critical illness
