be back up now, but it has been up and gone down again just this afternoon. so what we saw happen is that just shortly after the parliament voted on this measure that you mentioned to declare russia, state sponsor of terrorism. the website was no longer accessible, even clicking on it to read this statement, following the vote. you could, you couldn't get in, and this remains down for some time. the president of the european parliament, roberta metzler, went to twitter to say that a pro kremlin group had claimed responsibility for the attack. and that the, the parliament's a tech team was fighting back against it. and she said that she had one response for the hackers and that's slumber you kleinie, of course, glory to ukraine. now this measure, as you mentioned, does not have legal standing because the parliament at this time only has the ability to declare individuals and organizations as, as terrorist entities. but they hope that this measure will push european union governments to and, and the european union itself to create

a legal framework in which countries can be designated as state sponsors of terrorism. this is something that is done in the united states, but they haven't gone so far as to declare russia one of these, these countries yet. nonetheless, of course, european parliamentarians spoke out against the attack and said this to showed that the measure that they passed today, declaring russia as a terrorist entity, was well proven terry shells reporting for brussels there. well, here's a look at some other stories making news around the world, kosovo on serbia. i've reached a last minute deal to and a dispute over vehicle license plates, which the you had warned. could trigger ethnic violence, kosovo had planned to fine, ethnic serv drivers using serbian, issued plates. use foreign policy chief said negotiators in brussels, agreed on measures to avoid further escalation. a russian court has opened the trial of opposition. politicians yet. yeah. sion,

the moscow city counselor could face up to a decade in prison for denouncing president vladimir putin invasion of ukraine. his prosecution comes and made an unprecedented crackdown on descent. in russia, the statue of a controversial german colonial officer has been taken down in may be as capital in took after pressure from activists in 18. 93 kurt phone francois commanded a brutal operation in which some 80 people were killed in what was then known as german south west africa. the country was a german colony between 1884 and 950 therapy in space agency has selected it's 1st astronaut with a physical disability. the former british paralympics printer, john mac full, lost his leg in a motorcycle accident. 2 of 6 trainee astronauts are women. yes, a's recruitment dr. ange to bring diversity to space travel. my grandma john

mcfall continues to beat the odds. he lost his leg is a teen in a motorcycle accident only to become a paralympics representing great britain as a sprinter. now is on track to go where no one with a disability has ever gone before. up in space as the world's 1st ever pair astronaut. when we need to renounce, they were looking for a candidate with a physical disability. i thought it was such an inspiring and exhilarating opportunity and i looked to the person specification and i thought, wow, this is, this is really aspirational, this is very brave and very bold thing to do. i'm with my broad scientific background and vast range of experiences. i felt compelled to try and help each so on to this question. can we get some with a physical disability that to, to meaningful work in space? that's what the european space agency helps to find out. but large and such

a new feat will take time as part of the new isa class of recruits. mcfall will 1st work with engineers to understand what changes are needed in hardware to open professional space flight to a wider group of qualified candidate. and the study is expected to last 3 years and he comes in many different ways. and the world health organization reckons that about 50 percent of the population live with some sort of disability and maybe 2 percent are really affected by it. i'm so in the, of course to be an astronaut is a very exclusive thing to be, but having a disability he shouldn't rule you out. and that was really part of this very special project that we launched in this process. i think the message that i would give to future generations is that science is for everyone. and space travel hopefully can be for everyone. the project is considered a giant lead towards enabling people with physical disabilities to reach new heights. ah,

while before the ball even got rolling for germany's world cub opener against japan, the team had a message for fever. german players cover their mouths during 18 photo just ahead of kick off. it was response to fevers, threat of sanctions over the one love arm band, and on the pitch, germany were eager to setting straight after a disastrous exit in russia 4 years ago. but our opener didn't go exactly as plant is high going to want growth. the deadlock 30 minutes into the game after converting from the spot, gemini, could have easily increased their lead, but the lat bite. the chances were there, the finishing was more for though japan clot they read back into the scheme. one level in the 2nd half was this an upset in the making the japanese fans seem to think so into my son immediate reality by giving japan the need to one to finance for the next big upset. this was this time it was japan nets. and what time would

champions germany? well, to discuss all the latest news from the world cup in guitar is philip hepner from dw sports. welcome to the studio, philip. so there was a plenty to talk about. i will say in this germany, japan match, but it wasn't just about football. that's right. the match started off with a team photo of the unique sorts or to speak. german team covered up their mouse with their hands, basically saying that they're being gagged by the fee for they're not able to express the views and beliefs that they wanted to by wearing the $1.00 love arm band and the sanctions by the firm. they're not quite happy with those. and that might still have been on germany's mind because as we all know, that huge upset that japan pulled off against germany. germany looked strong in the 1st half, but didn't really convert their chances and fell victim to quick japanese counterattacks in the 2nd half, and ultimately lost the game. lots of defensive mistakes. that's really the weak point of germany's side. a manual lawyer, nicholas jeweler, and also nico slot are big, not looking very good. here's what pansy flick had to say with this difficult

situation. now, the one, the one we want to, we want to an f set. i will say saygos. one thing that was a very bad start, even though there was more in it for us. so now it's really about preparing. we're for staying over the next 3 days. and then we want to try to come out on top in the n dot m a c go from, let's get our i philip. well, germany, or was he at making their wounds will say, and spain then actually completely destroyed costa rica in fact. so what does this mean for germany and their chances of going at far in this world cup? germany's bags are against the wall? it's as simple as that. there are basically 2 scenarios that we can draw up quickly . one is the best case scenario for germany. that means they win the next game against spain and japan loses the costa rica. that would mean that all 4 teams are on 3 points. so it's basically even going into the last match. however, there is a chance that germany get eliminated even by the next match. that would be the case

if germany lose against spain and japan gets at least one point against costa rica than dependent spain would be through germany. would be eliminated after just 2 games. unimaginable almost. well, what about a group f? what exactly happened there? it wasn't much going on there compared to all the excitement in germany as group. we did see that carissa drew mill against the morocco, a bit of a surprising result, considering the courage where the finalists of 2018. however, i do think that they will pick up a little bit and then we saw in the 2nd match, the belgium just barely squeezed out to win against courageous canadians who played much better actually than belgium did at a penalty that they missed a phone. so davy, so definitely had their chances, but in the end it was much why who was lot of one pass the keeper and got 3 points for the red devils. all right, philip, now from do you sports? thanks for the tech. well, we mentioned that spain game there, and they showed that they are a forced to be reckoned with at this world cup, with an impressive win against costa rica when this league player danny arma, found the back of the ned. after an artistic effort in the 11th mint,

the 1st of 3 goals for spain in the 1st half alone, and they didn't slow down their veteran torres with his 2nd goal of the match after the break. and then 18 year old gabby added another funny score, a convincing 7. no, that's it for now you're up to date. don't forget. you can always get all the latest news on our website, dw dot, dot com. thanks for watching. take care panels versa. i the world cut in guitar. exactly the sporting tim version it with were there for you with your port and background information everything you need.
