ah ah ah ah, this is dw news wiped from berlin, nieto and whole and believe a missile that crashed and bullish territory on tuesday was likely a stray from ukraine. they say it's likely ukrainian force is misfired than their salt when trying to repel russian air strikes. also coming up on the show, the republicans when control of the us house of representatives will take

a look at what that means for the 2nd half of jo biden's presidency. plus the clock is ticking per delegates in egypt to agree on climate goals. activists to save world leaders must deliver on their pledges to assist those hit hardest by global warming. and viewing pleasure. the creators of dark set sail with a new thriller. mystery series, 1899 holes. a group of passengers caught up in a nightmarish journey of the open sea. ah. hello, i am clear. richardson. thank so much for joining us. nato and poland. say a missile that hit polish territory on tuesday was probably misfired by ukraine in self defense. 2 people were killed when it exploded in a village near the ukrainian border, sparking fears of a major escalation in the war. and the strike happened on the same day. russia
12:02 pm
bombarded ukraine with missiles targeting infrastructure and cities across the country. in these fields near the ukrainian border, the search for answers continues. it was here that a missile came down on tuesday, killing 2 and sparking fears that the worn ukraine might escalate into a wider conflict. had this been an intentional attack on nato member, poland. it could have triggered a military response by the alliance by analysis of these fragments, let war so to conclude, that the message was not launched by russia who are supposed to be sure, agatha, he was probably an es, 300 rocket mate in the soviet union. an old rocket and there is no evidence that it was launched by the bush inside. it is highly probable. it was fired by ukrainian anti aircraft offences. and unfortunately, fell on our with heavy tree. russia on tuesday launched dozens of crews my cells
12:03 pm
and drones at civilian targets in ukraine as president putin sheets to compensate for battlefield defeats with terror, was always ukrainian president vladimir. the lensky denied that a ukrainian air defense. michelle had gone, of course he called for his own investigators to be granted access to the site range. gl ukrainian position is very clear. we strive to establish all the details for every fact. that is why we need our specialists to join the international investigation. and to get access to all the data available to our partners and to his sight of the explosion, mika, we will, in his remarks, the incident has not weakened the resolve of ukraine's key ally with the united states. and we, the united states are determined to continue to support ukraine with the means to defend themselves for as long as it takes. but the end of the day,
12:04 pm
ukraine will retain, will remain a free and independent country. will its territory intact. with nato unlikely to join the fight. ukraine will need all the material support it can get on. this incident has highlighted how easily the war in ukraine can spill over into neighboring countries. a reporter, yeah. gosh, shanaski has visited our village near the polish ukrainian border where the missile exploded. he's been speaking to residents there. and hasn't us this report? ah, there is more and more police cars entering the side 2 days ago, a rocket road to residence of this. all this village, salvador. 6 this is a still side of the ongoing investigation. as you can see, there is a police there. there is also military presence. the area is cordoned off and we
12:05 pm
are actually standing some 400 meters away from the place. we're to rocket strike, killing 2 residents of this village. we were talking to people here and they told us that they are afraid that some accident leg this could happen again. they are relieved that on the other hand, they are relieved that on that so this was probably an unfortunate accident and not a deliberate attack, because any escalation would mean even more danger for dam right here, right at the ukranian border. but ultimately this small community, there is 400 people living here, and they are in grief. they knew the 2 men that were killed. and they said that they were now in the time to process this terrible truck tragedy. and in case we have our correspondent young philip shots, i earlier asked him why president zelinski was still blaming russia. i think the fact that it was probably an accident caused by ukrainian adie fence is not that
12:06 pm
damaging for ukraine. every one in western countries and especially in poland, which is directly affected, agrees that the ultimate responsibility is with the russia without their invasion. none of this would have happened. but what surprises. so some observer, sir, is the harsh rhetoric from the ukrainian side, especially the absolute denial that it might have anything to do with the ukrainian forces. but if we look carefully at the statements, i think we're seeing a slow shift there in his latest remark, sir, president says lensky air has sir, changed the wording a bit. he is speaking about russian aggression. crossing the border and earn more general way now. and he focuses on the demands that the ukrainians should be part of the team or that carries out the investigation at the moment. and i think this is something that polish officials might be willing to meet him. now this of course
12:07 pm
happened with russia firing a scores of missiles in white ukraine says with me, biggest round and missile strike since the start of the war. how are people there and key of coping is what we have experienced here since tuesday has definitely been the the heaviest way for miss as strikes and since the beginning of the war. and this has led sir to a lot of power cuts all over the country every day. life here is very much affected and the missile attacks don't stop. and people are warrens about more massive strikes in the coming hours and days. the focus at the moment, especially on the ports 30 of odessa and the eastern city of ne pro, where at least 15 civilians have been injured in the past hours. a mentioned as power cuts. and how are these strikes that have been crippling energy
12:08 pm
infrastructure? how, what are the stakes of that? what are the implications of having these blackouts yet at least 15 power sides have for the damage in the past days. so this effect every day life a lot, even here in kia, if we still experience the regular power cards. but what is really probably more worrisome, our remarks by international experts that those power cuts once again increased the risk of a nuclear accident. the reason is very simple. nuclear power plants don't, so only a produce power, but they also need external power. so the power cuts her have once again become a safety issue here. thank you so much for that update that our correspondent young fellow shots in kiff let's go the united states now where republicans have won the house of
12:09 pm
representatives after last week's mid term elections. and the result gives the party the power to block jo biden's agenda for the final 2 years of his presidency . but biden's party, the democrats, maintained their narrow senate majority dash and republic in hopes of controlling both chambers of congress victory for republicans who have taken control of the us house of representatives. but with the when narrow and they're majority, slim legislating and governing could prove difficult. power in congress is now split with democrats in control of the senate. the year us president joe biden signaled his willingness for cooperation, stating i congratulate leader mccarthy on his health majority. and i'm ready to work together for american families. republican house leader kevin mccarthy is tip to become house speaker, one of the most powerful positions in washington, a head of the house when the congressman from california won the nomination from
12:10 pm
his party. i told you it just took a little while while good evening. i'm proud to announce the era of one party. democratic rule in washington is over. washington now has a check and balance the american people have a say in their government. and this new republican leadership team is ready to get to work, to put america back on the right track. that track will likely include trying to cut government spending and tighten border security. mccarthy has vowed to investigate the u. s. withdrawal from afghanistan and the finances of the president, son, hunter biden. republicans now have the power to oppose the president's agenda for the final years of his term. but the president also has a veto over legislation proposed by the congress house. republicans will also have the next presidential elections in 2024 in mind when it comes to their legislative decisions. mccarthy is close to former president donald trump,
12:11 pm
who has just announced his bid for a 2nd presidential term. america's comeback starch right now. but with many republicans blaming trump for the parties worse than expected performance in the mid terms, mccarthy may want to put some political distance between himself and the former president. and am always very pleased to welcome stacy prevents into the studio for analysis. stacy put this into perspective for us. how much power have the republicans gained by getting majority in the house of representatives? well, i guess it depends on what they've learned from the selection independence and young people broke hard for the democrats. they care about abortion rights. they care about the environment, they care about democracy. and so as in this piece that just put aired, we, we heard the talk of an investigation of hunter biden. well, that's a loser for
12:12 pm
a lot of voters in the u. s. they want to know how they're going to be able to pay for, for food, how they're going to be able to pay for gas. and so these kinds of issues are loser for the republican party and, and just to be clear, there were so many candidates who were presented by donald trump, where they were re litigating the 2020 election and where they were talking about these culture war issues. voters said enough, we want to see people work together to make america better for our republicans, united on this issue. they have a majority, but it is, it is a narrow majority. it was a narrow victory. do you think the party will be able to unite to get it's policies? the problem isn't the much. the majority that they have is so slim that it's almost a win for the democrats meant what? let me just play this out for you. so we have the republicans and they're split, half of the party supports trump, and they have
12:13 pm
a more of what people feel like is a hard line view. and then you have other people who say, you know what, the republican party has gone off course. so it's going to be harder for the republican leader and the house to get his team together. the democrats are mostly united, especially in the house, but in the but with the republicans, it's going to be a harder task. right. and what will this then mean for president biden's legislative agenda? well, he's made a very clear that he thinks that what he's done in the past 2 years is a win. and so he wants to keep going on with that. but of course, he's going to have some roadblocks because of the way that this has played out with the legislature going to the republicans. but like i said, it's not an easy victory for the republicans because they don't necessarily have the numbers because they don't have a unification. ok, well now that by the end of the democrats won't control both houses of congress. do
12:14 pm
you think it's possible that we will see the president focusing more on foreign policy, which is traditionally an area where the executive branch has more power? sure, i'm and he wants the us to be a leader when it comes to the climate. and so yes, he wants to be able to show that the united states is a partner that their foreign allies can depend on. so that's something that he's definitely going to be pushing for in the month and years ahead. all right, thank you so much for that. that's stacy evans, with our election team get to see and let's turn our attention now to some of the other stories that have been making news around the world. north korea fired a ballistic missile toward its eastern waters on thursday as it warned of fiercer military responses to the u. s. and its allies. the launch is the latest in a record number of such tests this year. ukraine's as the deal that allows it to
12:15 pm
export grain through the black sea will be extended by 4 months. turkey, which helped a broker the agreement confirm the initiative, will continue under existing terms and un secretary general, antonio quoterush has welcome to the move man. mars military regime is releasing about 6000 prisoners marking next week's national victory day holiday. following the announcement relatives gathered outside of prison and young gone. among those being freed are a former british ambassador, a japanese journalist, and an australian economist. and as the un climate summit in egypt years, it's and world leaders have been making major pledges on climate action. i travel shake of brazil's president elect, louise and osceola desilva, promised to crack down on deforestation in the amazon. but delegates are yet to a great deal over compensation for poor countries. suffering the damaging effects of climate change while time is running out for those countries on the front
12:16 pm
lines of the climate crisis, like madagascar where low rainfall has led to severe drought. he w scores on adrian creek visited shown by in the south, where the situation is particularly bad. nearly 1500000 people are dependent on aid, and many are living in famine like conditions. this is mon approval river or what's left of it for 2 years. residents of cham behalf to dig in the river bit their main source of water that we are truly suffering. my sally, now it's really dry, dry, dry no, no rainfall. actual rainy season should have already started, but once again, people are still waiting, lifted. i and her family left their village and came to town because of the drought back home. everything had run dry. but here things were not much better. yes, it's a tiny house,
12:17 pm
but this is what we can afford to rent. our house is in the village far from here. but we come here because we need access to water. we brought all the kids here and now they work as water carriers. done one of them, i fetching water and selling it is their only option of earning money for food every morning. this is the reality for tens of thousands in the region. we live in villages without access to water. they have to transport their water containers to water sources, then fill them up and bring them back to their villages, of course, at a price. and it's often children who are doing this work. skipping school southern madagascar has always been poorer and dryer than the rest of the islands. the reason droughts combined with decades of neglect by the central government, has aggravated the situation. we meet the regional governor, he says there plans to build a road and a massive water pipe to bring in water from areas better off. but he can say,
12:18 pm
when you can expect it of those problems to be a reserve within ah, one year or 2 years for the last 8 decades, nothing has been done. and this is the 1st government. this is the 1st regime which is ah, taking care of their whole of a problem. he says residents are also to blame because for generations they have been cutting down the forests in the area. beckett my number over river lyford. i says she has no energy to think about what is responsible for the crisis. the handling of missouri had sometimes the children don't get any money until the end of the day. so late at night. sometimes we don't eat the whole day. we just stay hungry. then i just search for cactus fruits. now we don't have anything to cook. so i need to go and look for cactus fruit. so we have a meal units, lantern in. so once again,
12:19 pm
she ventures out in the heat without shoes looking for something to eat, trying to make ends meet, finding food and waters, all the food i can think of every day in disastrous like that are what's being discussed at the club. 27 summit in sharma shake. i'm very pleased to welcome elisa york from the nonprofit action against hunger. germany. thank you so much for taking the time. i'm in that last report we just saw how communities in madagascar have been ravaged by drought. what hope does cop 27 offer people in that kind of situation? has 2 big topics around people impacted by drought and other climate extremes. here, one is around adaptation. so and making sure i have the final thing ready to adapt to the new living situation in a changed climate. now the one is dealing with loss and damages, because that time at extreme, people cannot adapt to making sure that when they lose their livelihood, when they lose their properties, they can bounce back and on the issue of loss and damage. financing has been the
12:20 pm
issue that has dominated this cause. we know the e, u and 4 national governments have pledged a 1000000000 euros to help african nations adapt to think that that's enough. it said, of course, a welcome sign, but definitely not enough. this 1000000000 is likely part of a pledge that was already made of a 100000000000 in climate finance. that governance governments said in 2009 they would pay out to developing countries by 2020 until 2025. and in glasgow last year, they agreed to try and double the adaptation finance and making sure people can adapt. but the needs are really much higher. we estimate that every year between a $160.00 and $300000000000.00 are needed for adaptation alone. and even more for loss or damage between $290.58 euros per year just for developing countries to we're talking a little bit about how countries can adapt to the realities of
12:21 pm
a changing warming world. but what about policies they get to the heart to the root of the issue to address climate change directly? so this is being dealt with here as well lasted for example, last week, an initiative was launched by drought stricken countries to work together, improve technology and making sure they can improve the use of waterfalls as they have. but around weather patterns, it's really important to look for context specific solutions them. so this is what countries are trying to do here. i also know that women are disproportionately affected by the consequences of climate change. is this summit addressing that this year? so there's a gender action plan that's part of the call every year. but i'm hearing from colleagues, it's not gone very far, but absolutely right. especially jobs or insecurity. it's women and girls much
12:22 pm
harder than men and boys. and from what you have seen so far at this summit, are you pleased by the results? is it what you hoped to see coming out of this cop 27 or do you think that the delegates needed to go much further? the prove is in the pudding really and the very likely that this summer will not end tomorrow's original plan, but maybe go on until saturday or sunday. i don't view the negotiate as are to stage where they don't even have a draft, but a so called non paper, which is another way of saying that there's still lots of agreement and disagreement on the final declaration. the lot of them it, if you really seems to be the sticking point, the movie is quite tense and i'm not sure how much this couple will help bring up the step closer to time it just for those. and thank you very much for your time. that's lisa, you all come from action against hunger in egypt. well, if you enjoy watching the netflix show dark,
12:23 pm
there's some good news for you. it's german craters are back with a new mystery series that combines european history with fantasy, 1899 as a multilingual drama set on an ocean liner. bringing emigrants from europe to america. they're dreaming of a better future. but then something unexpected happens on route. in the mid atlantic a migrant steamer receives an impossible distress call. 6 hours ago we received a message. ah, we believe this comes from the prometheus he think the passengers esther alive. with so begins 1899. the new netflix mystery series, where nothing is as it seems, the series had its world premiere in berlin, the creators see the show as a metaphor for europe itself. we thought we really want to take a look at europe and just take it, put it on a ship in a confined space,
12:24 pm
nuts of ocean around can't escape. and i have like a little bit of an experiment, almost like a lavatory experiment. how people cope with situations when they're not able to speak the same language. $1899.00 was also a technical experiment. one of the 1st t v shows to shoot entirely in a new volume studio using cutting edge digital technology with st. his surrounding like the giant cylinder cinema screen and then stage retail in the middle. and it's operated by about 20 technicians. it's quite something to look at and anyway, and it, it does look amazing transport. e t anywhere. 1899 dazzles with its visual style even as its twisty plot will leave. many viewers baffled but fans of meta mysteries should dive it. and national teams are arriving
