a way house we asked our correspondent sumi, some escandone in washington, but we don't know exactly how they're going to solve this crisis. we just know that they're working on it. we have heard rumblings and rumors that kevin mccarthy has been huddling with his critics. those have been standing in his way in the path to be the speaker of the house and trying to crank out some concessions to bring them over to his side. it looks like things might be moving in his direction, but none of that has actually played out into a vote on the floor of the house of representatives. so that means we're going to head into a 3rd day and a 7th round of voting. and some of our viewers might be wondering where does this actually go? what the says, pretty new territory here in modern politics. it hasn't happened in 100 year. so lawmakers themselves are navigating the situation, but we know they're going to continue to vote until they select a speaker of the house. that could be kevin mccarthy. it could be someone else. we could just see a several rounds of voting ahead of us. but let's see what progress is made in negotiations through the night in the morning. to me so was gonna no russian

president vladimir putin house announced the deployment of a warrior pomp with hypersonic cruise missiles to be atlantic. a show of force comes as western allies move toward stepping up their support for ukraine by supplying armored vehicles. deployments of the new generation hypersonic missiles are also comes afterwards, believe to be russia's biggest single military loss to a ukraine in strike, so far, via video link, russian president vladimir, who tim joined, descending a ceremony for a new frigate equipped with missiles. the celebration looks like a destruction tactic. off the russian troops suffered heavy losses in her son. and my kid. criticism of the military's leadership is mounting. moscow says 809 russian soldiers were killed in my caseworker dozens more than the death till it initially announced it thought the men were killed in the school building where they were staying in part of a rush and controlled area of east in ukraine. military officials say the soldiers themselves were partly to blame. no, such

a commission is working to investigate the circumstances of the incident. but it's already obvious that the main reason for what happened was the switching on and massive use, contrary to the ban of mobile phones by the troops who were in the zone of enemy weapons. this allowed the enemy to locate the troops for myself. strike o like karen tomorrow on tuesday, people around russia a morning, the dead investigations by the military's commission ongoing. meanwhile, some politicians on military commentators venting their anger at the russian military leadership on the online service. telegram and calling for revenge. deputy, do me a speaker, andrew med v a t f says housing troops and buildings rather than bunkers is akin to helping the enemy and well rushes steps up its attacks on ukraine civilian infrastructure. it plans to protect itself with a new hypersonic missiles system with through the

years because i am sure that such powerful weapons will make it possible to reliably protect russia from potential external threats. with that, put in sent off the new frigate on its hypersonic cruise missiles. for now on a training mission, the european union has a great number of restrictions on travelers from china in response to a certain code, infections there, but stopped short of making the restrictions mandatory for member states. recommendations include requiring negative coping tests from passengers parting from china, as well as face mass on flight to and from china, beijing threatening county measures against the restrictions which condemned as discriminatory and not based on science. to bar anthony, the correspondence for the german national broadcaster a r d and joins us from the chinese capital beijing. welcome tomorrow. let's start

with these. these counter measures that beijing is talking about. what are they likely to look like? so far, baiting did not hint on what the counter measures might look like. but, and we have to keep in mind that until now at china requires all inbound travelers to go into a centralized car quarantine. this measure will end at the end of this week. however, baiting is then still require everybody to show a negative p c r test result. why? when coming into the country. and so far, china does not hand out any tourist visa for any been anyone from outside the country. so it is hard to think about more counter measures or other measures that a china might take to counter these. these measures from the you add, what is the the coven 19 situation in china? at the moment i was a health system coping. the difficulty is here that

china doesn't release any data and obviously sends media portray very positive image of how the health system is coping with the cove its situation. and generally speaking, the situation is that in the mo, the 10 or 11 most important cities in the country, at least the data from the subway usage shows that live is coming back to norma. but as you mentioned, like the health system might be so i'm trying to take of the problem of the, of treating the older patients that anyways, do not use transportation. so how the health system is really coping is really hard to evaluate. and that under reporting is something that bit but w a joe has criticized a china for his most critical comments yet. absolutely like officially on china, for example, for yesterday released that only one person died of kobe. so these are numbers that

expert from outside the country i believe, and not trustworthy at all. and these kind of data, for example, also the number of people being hospitalized is what the w h o is asking china to release. because so far that these numbers are just not available at all, like about tomorrow, tomorrow, and to be in beijing. take a look now at some or source making headlines around the world will start in israel when the new government has unveiled a plan to overhaul the judicial system and weaken the powers of the supreme court. the proposals would allow parliament override some supreme court. supreme court decisions with a simple majority critic say the plan would up and the country system of checks and balances and undermine its democratic institutions. iranian authorities have released a prominent actor tehrani ali ali dusty

a from prison on bail images on twitter show her celebrating her release the oscar winner was arrested nearly 3 weeks ago. after criticizing the crackdown on anti government protest posting at least 3 instagram messages in support of demonstrations for her account was disabled. new year's eve is a rowdy night here in berlin. but after dozens of police and firefighters were injured in, attacks involving fireworks, debated, rating about who's to blame the cities, maize, calling for a summit on how to deal with violence among young people. but comments by german. these interior minister suggested failures in migration and integration could be partly responsible riot like seeds in the heart of berlin. the ushering in the new year escalated into street violence in many cities across germany. as usual, berlin was one of the main hot spots,

but the intensity of this years violence was described by police as far worse than in previous years. police officers were among those attack during the night, along with fire fighters, another members of the emergency services. one fire fire to had to be hospitalized . many others were injured. in berlin, a 145 were rested in connection with the rights of those attained 45 german citizenship. and that turned the debate from the potential banum pyrotechnics into one about migration and integration. in a sweet germany's interior minister, nancy phaser said, we have a problem in major german cities with some young men with an immigrant background who despise our state. commit acts of violence, and it's very difficult to reach them with education and integration programs. the statement is said, arts with an otherwise cautious approach by the german government select for victo

and or think off the debate about what happened on you is eve. but it's not about the so called m aggression background, or the demand for ban on firecrackers. that window, when it's about as much more fundamental, this is about an attack on the rule of law to the rich thought. other members of the governing coalition have warned, against jumping to conclusions. it's blow he mind from what we've never seen a phenomenon like this before. him. it's got at least not to this extent i'm at home. and so of course i have a problem with a response like this in the mean. it's hardly a just description, totally disgust people of an immigrant background, attacking emergency workers and stuff, and empties allegations were shot that english that the scobee finished on different precedent supper lines. no can district are not surprised that the violence flared up in their neighbourhood. he is his have slims, this part of berlin is the worst in these high rise buildings. i am speechless. it's the same. every year. they burn trash cans,

set cars on fire or smash bus stops to stella, good car put up one shot myself. will some do it because the heed the police some because i think it's fun most or angry because of cove. it's more for some people. it's in a nature much. i'm into it because it's waste of money for those who want to use fireworks, let them and all of my friends are into it, like tomato man a fine isn't all summer. and it's nice to lead the fan down again. it's kind of normal for berlin, bumping to las vegas muscle. and this has gone to the mile and been berlin's mayor francisco giff. i has called this summit against youth violence. it's a 1st attempt to find a solution to recurring problem. the european winter sport season is off to a poor start with above average temperatures, resulting in a lack of snow. they conditions are being linked to human induced global warming. so i'm ski resorts haven't opened at all, while others are relying on artificial snow to keep skiers and snow borders on the

slopes. it looks like a summer trip up the mountain, but this is january and europe. green grass blankets, hills that should be covered and snow right now. and ski slopes have been confined to a narrow lane. at the school bush, it's really weird. everything is green left and right of the slope. if the temperature is of up to 10 degrees celsius, have caused the last snow on these slaves to melt. and what little snow you see here didn't fall from the sky. there, the hammer and the 2 had fresh, natural snow in salem, see about 40 centimeters. this will be far too little, so we filled it out with artificial snow because of that we've cope well is yet with it won't nickel and the last significant snowfall in the area was at the start of december. ski slope operate as a feeling. the pinch puts better, helps as a main season. we should be hosting up to $4000.00 guests in the area,

but now there's only half of the usual guess. switzerland and france have also been feeling the heat. numerous slopes remain closed over the festive season, forcing holiday makers to consider taking up alternative sporting activities with other trulia or not on invalid. we hear the news about global warming that i don't know, but the fact is that we can't deny it. if i take you around the burden you fog and rain instead of snow, while by no means comparable to the humanitarian disaster is caused by global warming around the world. the current state of european ski slopes is yet another sign that the climate emergency affects all of us. as remind of our top story at this hour, republican kevin mccarthy has lost a 6 votes and he sprayed to come speak on behind us house of representatives. the

election has been blocked by a group of republican hod lioness for 2 days, or even defined, of course, from former president donald trump. to back mr. daniel winter has your d. w. business updates in just a moment and i'll be back at the top out. in the meantime, of course is always d, w dot com for news and information around the clock. and with the w. good. ah ah ah, i think everything jenny fair, some are big. i'm listening.
