ah ah ah, this is dw used live from berlin. on high alert, has violence continues in the middle east to women are killed in a shooting in the west bank hours after israel launched air strikes on targets in garza and lebanon. also in the program, have russian forces captured buckboard. british intelligence suggests it's very likely that they have taken the city center threatening

a key supply route for ukrainian forces to the west class making his moves at a very early age. we meet chess prodigy who's saying besought, who has become a record breaker in germany. after fleeing warring syria, ah, i'm bench was all and welcome. israel is on high alert to mid mounting violence in the region is where the medic say to israel, the women have been killed in a shooting attack on a car in the occupied waste bank. a 3rd woman was said to be seriously injured. it happened neither hombre junction in the northern part of the jordan valley. the latest incident comes after a series of is why the air strikes on targets in garza and didn't lebanon. is why the military says it's pre dawn strikes, hit targets linked to the palestinian militant group. hamas earlier rockets were

fired into israel from both garza and lebanon, or the sky line of gaza city lighting up not long after the israeli army confirmed that it was carrying out airstrikes in the territory. ah, israel also launched strikes in southern lebanon. this is the aftermath of a day before dozens of rockets were fired from lebanon toward israeli territory. the biggest rocket attack from lebanon in 17 years of, of israel's prime minister, convened a security meeting to discuss how to respond. marcella took for news on regarding the aggression against us. another friend was then we will strike our enemies and they will pay the price of any act of aggression. when we go, our enemies will discover again that up moments of truth as the citizens of israel

stud united and unified and back the actions of israeli army of the other security services to defend our country. and our people, as a colonel. the israeli military said most of the rockets were intersected by its iron dome anti missile system. this property in northern israel, however, was not spared. israel has pointed the finger at palestinian militants for the attacks. when i'm at the time of rising tensions after israeli police rated the al axa mosque in jerusalem earlier this week is lambs, 3rd, holiest site. authority said they were forced to enter the complex to remove people. they describe as rioters palestinians, and their supporters accused israel of using excessive force against worshippers. an emergency session of the un security council on thursday night urged diplomats

on all sides to show restraint. ah, members were clearly united in the need for de escalation in common. the region, this is a holy mom for all 3 religions. escalation is not in anybody's interest in the region, and i think we will see that the counselor sees of his matter in the coming period as well as capital. but the holy month has so far brought no signs of de escalation . israel's overnight airstrikes were followed by a salvo of rockets from the gaza strip. he w corresponded rebecca written his is in jerusalem. i asked her how tense the situation is there during this important time for 3 religions. women where i'm standing right now just outside or the entrance of the old city at the mass. good day, sir. things seem pretty calm. pretty normal. everyone seems in quite a jovial spirit. the tensions are very, very high here at the moment,

as you can imagine, given the events of the, the last few days last week. in particular. what you heard in the report there that of the scenes that we saw on tuesday at the alex m also with this ready police going into they say get people to come out of the mosque. but we saw video all the people of the police beating people inside the malcolm that has thought anger amongst the palestinian community. and we've seen a lot of rocket via coming from lebanon and from garza in retaliation. detention is incredibly high at the moment. and as you say, the convergence of these 3 holy festivals, making it even more tense to israeli women have been killed in a shooting attack in the occupied west bank. what else can you tell us about that? that's right. we got word a couple of hours ago. of a shooting attack in the west bank as you say. now 3 women, 3 learned from

a settlement just outside of jerusalem were shot in that attack to have died at the state. and one is in a critical condition and now have massive come out in a statement. they didn't claim responsibility, but they praised the attack, calling it a natural response to is to response to israel's ongoing crimes against the l x m off going against palestinian. so at the, the, the events of this week really causing a hugely high tension in the area. right. when politicians are now calling out, holding for a very strong response. and we've seen the police chief come out saying that anybody who has a license weapon should be carrying it. so that's certainly not going to do anything to de escalate the situation. pensions very high of this weekend. he's rebecca bridges for the situation in lebanon. now. barrett bureau chief mohammed shay tech gave us this update. life is looking quite normal and anybody's a border towns, earth, but destination is cautious current. matter. israel's military, he said it had struck reef marson to restructure targets in that southam, lebanon,

that resident sir around the russia di palestinians, refugee camp near the assault and city of tier, that he ported 3 loud. thus around for a m a local time. this comes in rita lee, retaliation air force cause of rockets launched from sound and saw them numbered on israel gleamed on their d, islamist, her famous for this. now the question been is, how will the the been? he's a heavily armed drug, has bella react her to this? there is anticipation of the moment. there are many questions about the nature or the scale that location and geography, and whether any possible response from a has belie will be within the known rules of engagement with, or israel. the iranian box, or group that repeatedly expressed that readiness for any upcoming battle with israel, or sort of political reactions, have there been in lebanon in response?

well on and then might be the most difficult front, or for israel, from a perspective from a military air perspective. however, the political situation the been on is very fragile. the country has been that facing our presidential vacuum there for 6 months now. and the ability of the caretaker government to take important and crucial decisions is very limited. there are major political divisions in the buttons as in lebanon, as well as the m a. some of the opposition leaders have accused the rounds affiliate, including has the law and allied palestinian functions of a drugging the been on possibly into a ward with israel. now lebanon's government, caretaker government, has expressed its condemnation for the rockets launching and renewed. it's a commitment to you and a solution, or number 17 or one would stop the war with israel in 2006 and the minis army set

in a, in a statement. it is working a closely with you and peacekeepers in south lebanon are for d escalation. bob, thank you very much for your update. they've route bureau chief, they're turning to ukraine. a u. k. intelligence reports, as russian forces have made significant gains in the eastern city of back mode. the british believe russian forces have taken the city center along with the west and bank of the wood co river. that would put ukrainian supply lines under threat. ukraine is denied the report, but admits the situation is difficult. but what has been for over for months and has seen some of the fists as fighting in the bought a ukrainian military spokesperson told what his use agency that moscow is focusing all its efforts on taking a city. jaguar sherman of ski is in rigor where dw has been operating as being banned from russia. i asked him how russia has responded to the ukranian

statement. ben, the last was here from the russian side, about the situation. bahama was from the of gainey pre gosh, and the head of the wagner group that been fighting in the city. and he said yesterday that the enemy, the ukrainians, are actually not going anywhere. and as you said, this battle has been going on for months over 8 months for over 8 months already. and it's turned into this grinding st to st bottle. and in the last week, the russian side has been indeed on the move. they've been taking ground in the city, but regard but pre gordon said that the ukrainians are actually preparing new lines of defense in the western part of the city along the railway tracks which run from north to the south. so the offer pretty good defense, a possibility for the ukrainian side and the, and the he said that there cannot be any talk of russian offensive yet. and of course, for pre gordon, this is a chance to strike, to hit at the russian defense ministry. and there is some conflict going on between

him and, and the russian defense ministry. but still, i think it, it shows that if there is going to that, then it shows that the frontline is moving, but it's moving pretty slowly and also brushing farm is this okay. land rover is visiting turkey to discuss that deal. that ssl green expos from ukraine. resume during the press conference, he also addressed rushes attitude towards a potential p. steel. we got, we are ready for negotiations to taking into account the realities that have developed to day and taking into account that entertainment interests and legitimate concerns of the russian federation. primarily in terms of our security, as opposed to how open is rasa to peace talks to you says the change in the rhetoric then it might sound like that. a bad sir love roof later went on to speak about how the west has ignored russian

interests. russian concerns for a long time and the it's actually how russia is presenting itself in the conflict. it wants to show that it, it, it says that it's open or for negotiations. it says that it actually wants peace. and it's heinz all the blame to, to the west. that is apparently a, according to the russian earned to the russian to russian officials controlling ukraine in this conflict. and even yesterday, the spokesman of vladimir putting who the said that a russia doesn't see room for political settlement at the moment. and that it does it that it in fact doesn't see any other way than continuing this. so called a special military operation. and i think also also it's important to, to, to talk about what elaborate of said today. he said that any p stock p stocks need to include talks about the

a new world order. and this is something the russian officials have been talking for for years. really and read me a put in has been talking about how she wants to, he wants to achieve a new multi polar world order. and in a russian interpretation, this means actually in worlds with spheres of influence that i think this shows that russia still is trying to bring a ukraine under its control deed on a battlefield or in, within peace talks, dw correspondence, j. josh bernacki, thank you very much. and let's get you up to date on some of the other stories making use. china's military has sent war ships and planes need taiwan for a 2nd day. according to time. the military drills come as president sighing when returns home from the us when she met with us. how speak to kevin mccarthy, which angered beijing, china claims the self governed island as its own territory. japanese officials have

found what they believed to be fragments of an army helicopter that went missing with 10 crew on board defense minister, yahoo console. ha, madame said the helicopter, which disappeared with all on board, had apparently crashed into the sea on thursday to see to democratic lawmakers of the you and state of tennessee have been expelled from the legislature in a vote taken by the republican dominated house. there was uproar, after the 2 black men were banished for joining a gun control process inside the capital building. last week, apple just followed a deadly school shooting in nashville. hundreds of thousands of people of joint determined to stand his ground even with mach wrong thousands of kilometers away. paris is still burning. this time it was one of the french prisons favorite restaurants in flames. as protest as again faced up with police over his pension reform

ah, elsewhere in the french capital, striking railway workers took aim at another target and briefly stormed the building housing the offices of u. s. investment giant black rock. the company is a major player in the private pension market loads not been involved in the government's plans. but despite the sales and the clashes demonstrated seemed determined to carry on many on the streets of paris were angry about not just the deeply unpopular reform itself. but also about the government's heavy handed approach. no dialogue from the never has been any the government on a particular the head of state. they were made on that positions by declaring that it's absolutely essential to carry out this reform, even though there were many of the means which could be explored, which is not done at all. and so there's no discussion that's obvious. what you'll

do on that today. we have the impression that we are faced with a deaf and dumb government that is not very good at communication. we get the impression that emmanuel mccomb has absolutely no interest in what is happening in his own country. what could be with the government and the unions refusing to budge and talks going nowhere, both sides and now waiting for france is constitutional counsel, to way in next week. animals, plants, funky bio diversity, offers a treasure trove of chemicals and compounds. some of which can be used to treat diseases from malaria to cancer, but more and more species of being threatened with extinction is that jeopardizing our health. they don't use louise. osborne took a closer look for wealth health day. a see snail that is the thought for the pain medication, a 1000 times as powerful as morphine and north american tree with the power to treat breast cancer. the natural world has helped humans for millennia to treat

that health problems. and it plays a central role in the discovery of new drugs some of them have gone the full distance, but the thing that's produced in nature is the drug that we use in the clinic. but in many or perhaps most cases, it's that, that a chemical idea that's been gained from nature has been elaborated on the altar to give it good properties as a medicine, some 70 percent of cancer medications alone. a based on nature according to you and experts. but the search for new sources of pharmaceuticals is becoming ever more difficult. biodiversity is disappearing at an alarming rate, almost 2 thirds of more than 150000 species assessed as part of the i u. c. n thread list, which tracks the state of the world by it of f t. a threatened with extinction. and

humans are to blame. the 2 things that threatened both of us the most moment over harvesting and land convention and it's not just clear of land for last grade . it's clear it's land for food for life, stop to eat and clements at the ations. human driven climate change is also having an impact scientist say, loss of biodiversity does not just present a problem for drug discovery. humans are almost completely dependent on the natural world. whether it's through trees that remove pollutants from the air or crops, the provide food by diversity is the fabric that holds life support together on our planet. and if we didn't have living well nature, and it would be in a much harder, impossible, different planet. governments promised to tackle biodiversity lost by protecting 30 percent of land and oceans before 2030. whether the commitments become action could

dictate, not just the state of the planet, but also human health. that report they filed from louise osborne from d. w. 's environment desk, and we really did summed up well by that scientists that bring it home to our audience. once again, why bio diversity matters so much? i mean, we obviously need it when we're thick, as we were just talking about with the pharmacy schools. but it's completely inferential when it comes to keeping us healthy. trees, for example, remove pollutants from the air which gives us quality air to breathe. very important in fifties where a lot of people die from diseases associated with air pollution are also wetlands, for example, that clean water, one of india's biggest cities called cut coal cutter is dependent on its wetlands to, to clean the water for drinking and for farming. and without these jobs but by diversity,

as for us, life would be very difficult indeed. what about all the technological advances you hear about in biotech and tech in general? is that helping in the fight against this loss of biodiversity? well, we've heard about bes disappearing, for example, and the impact that that has on the crops that we need to eat for food. and there are machines that are being developed that would be able to pollinate crops for us . but that's just one job that do. they're actually lots of jobs and, and these interval jobs jobs, we could probably, we account for in some way. but all of these species are interconnected and they need each other so where that be might disappear, then the bird that is reliant on that be for food might then disappear as well. and then the folks that are reliant on that bird. so it's all interconnected and we can't account for that overly. and what about if it's to keep nature intact? is there a reason for hope or there are measures being taken and there are solutions that we

can use. i prefer street, for example, use is our or integrates trees and shrubs and biodiversity into farming of farming as a big problem when it comes to buy adversity loss. there's also re wilding, for example, the re introduction of species in areas where those species of gone or need to be brought back. and as individuals we can also do something. so for example, a cutting our food waste, making sure that we only by what we need rather than having to munch the results one, thank you very much for the tips and the insight. thank you for climate change is among the most pressing issues for people in germany today. and you survey by ever test the map shows germans give their government low marks on the topic chancello law shelters. coalition also gets its worst popularity ratings since taking office

spring 2023 in germany laughed shelves and his 3 party coalition have been in power for 16 months system. are they dealing with the problems that ordinary people care about? the latest infra tsd map survey shows what those issues are more than a quarter of german same climate change should be the government's number one focus compared with january, that's a 50 percent increase in the number calling for that. people are still thinking about other international issues like the war in ukraine and migration. well, more domestic questions like the cost of living a further down the priority list. the climate question has been at the heart of arguments within the coalition, lately, which may explain why more people are focusing on it. some in the government want to press a head with ambitious green plans, while others a worried about the cost. the poll numbers show that reflects a split in public attitudes to only 18 percent of people think germany is on track

to meet its climate goals, while much larger proportion. say it's either going to quickly or not. pushing ahead as fast as it should at the end of march, the government parties a great some tweaks to their environmental plans, especially focusing on transport. some aging auto bonds will get a face lift and planning processes will be shortened to speed completion of some long story project. at the same time, more money will be pumped into the nation's rail system. asked if those are the right priorities. germans tend to agree. a big majority supports boosting rail at the same time, more than half want more fast roads to be built, and a similar number oppose the use upcoming ban on new fossil fuel powered vehicles. in fact, only 36 percent of german support that move. and as spring brings warmth

to germany, what this pole also shows clearly, many people are worried about the climate and about the government's plans. in fact, a just 27 percent support for the coalition is at its lowest level yet. germany's chess federation has nominated its youngest player for an upcoming tournament in croatia, 11 year old who same bis always said to join the team after dazzling in domestic competition. but having arrived from walked on syria, there's more at stake who is sane and his family, then what happens on the ball? some spend a lifetime trying to mask the chess, others get the hang a little sooner. this is who st. basie. i just 11 years old, he's already considered one of germany's most promising players to him navigating the tough strategy game is as simple as 2 plus 2. yet if i find it fun because i like math, i'm with chess. you also have to do maths,

and that's why i like it. the subsidy plus hussein is set to represent germany at the tropic copping croatia later this month, making him the nation's youngest ever player. it's as much a celebration of pure talent as it is of immigration. no dear for holding. we are very proud that hussein was invited to join the german team to participate in international tournaments. we wish for the german team to achieve great results of my boys who same was actually born in syria and started playing chess at the age of 3. it wasn't long before his talents began to shine through heavily in our family, we always play chest together. my father and i, with my brother's st hussain, used to come and start asking how to move the pieces, how to play the game. and this is how we learn the basic moves of chess to then he started saying technical moves we would see after 6 or 7 months. hussein was very,

very good. hussein's family fled their homeland and german town of lich that in 2016. since then, boy, wanda has been honing his skills in local clubs. thankfully chess has proved a useful tactic for fitting in. it happened that i started playing a lot of tournaments in germany. that's how i improve my german man dodge. while hussein's family continue to fret over their residency status in germany, the youngster is purely focused on learning as much as he can while away. but the german chess federation, other than the ones i am playing with are all older. and therefore, maybe they have a little bit more experience, but i honestly think it's great that i'm able to play, and i think it's a fantastic chance i think, falls off to difficult beginnings. germany's youngest chest sensation is ready to seize an exciting opportunity. you're watching the w use up next in d, w,
