aspiring story about survival home and go get the cellist. i was the only one. what lies music in nazi germany? watch now on youtube. b. w documentary. ah ah, ah ah, this is dw news live from berlin. international calls to stop escalating violence is at least 3 civilians are killed in sudan. tension layer between the army and paramilitaries and would have to claim to have taken control the presidential, palace, and archer, international. airport. explosions and gunfire are heard in the capital and in

other cities. coming up on the show, a russian strike on a residential building and eastern ukraine, kills several people. the victims of the missile strike include at least one toddler, rescuers advanced desperately day for survivors in the bubble. bus in germany is shutting down its last nuclear power plants is remaining reactors are going off great a few months later than plant and despite calls to further delay the shut down ah hello, i'm clare richardson. thank you so much for joining us. we start with international calls for com, in sudan, where at least 3 civilians have been killed and dozens injured. amid an outbreak of violence between the army and a powerful paramilitary group on rest has been reported in several cities including in the capital har tomb. and the city of morrow north,

both sides are blaming each other for launching attacks. they had recently been in negotiations to merge and allow students to transition to democracy, the paramilitary group, our claims for teachers points including the presidential palace, the army cheese residents and hard tunes international airport. we're also getting reports of power cuts and communications outages. i spoke earlier to journalists as my oh, kush, who lives in downtown cartoon. and he gave us an update from the sudanese capital we seem to have trouble reaching him there. so we're going to move on to some other fighting erupted this morning between his army and the rapid support forces. ref, sports forces is a merited paramilitary group that has been operating in sudan, western sudan for over a decade. they've been tension between the 2 circles for the past days,

especially in the town of mentor. we enroll them, sudan, but that, that tension seems to have come to tune this morning. i did don't count cartoon not too far from the republic compatible. i can hear the sounds of machine gun every artillery. this is the worst case scenario. i think that that he's had hope that would, would never happen. as they hope to transition into democracy after the 1902. and he's revolution. and can you help us understand what is behind these tensions and what you think has brought things to a boiling point? so been there been a number of issues between the military as a whole that includes the army and the rapid support forces and the civilian forces . calling for a transition to that when he's protesters were able to topple the authoritarian government and one will be shared in 2019 women was made to transition into

democracy agreement between the military, both of its components. the then his army and the rapid support forces. the rapid support forces came into being over 10 years ago as a paramilitary, that aided the army and its conflict in dar for that agreement. there were a number of issues that were to be dealt with, including justice and accountability, and the removal of what was known as the what is known as the empowerment of the army at the hands of the army and the group. the rapid support forces in the cities economy. these were among the major issues, but really the major issue in these 2 is the issue of command. does the rapids or forces come under the direct command of the army?

there were many in these are need that were destroy distrust, quote, discontent, the power of the rhetoric support forces that, that doesn't have the same traditional military training that he is army has. this is one side of the story. the other side is that many see that the there are limits within the army that still have connections to the old government of one of the ships that works with the deal, a party between both sides and the civilians. on how to transition. it seemed for the cost of once that in agreement i was going to be signed, it kept on getting delayed, to bring the country back into a transition out. but the, these differences between the rapid support forces and the army, i really have to get it turned in the past few days and,

and was seen that was offered that today. and cartoon. well, thank you so much for bringing us up to speed on this escalating violence. really appreciate your time. and as journalists ismael kush crush in cartoon. thank you. now we can go to ukraine, where rescuers are searching for survivors in the city of savanski after russian airstrikes killed at least 11 people, including a toddler. levy ask is just a 50 kilometers from bar mote, which has witnessed some of the heaviest, frontline, fighting and recent months dropped within the robo in a residential area. devastated by russian shelling rescue was search this apartment block the survivors. bringing those who they confined to safety, local officials said at least 7 spots in slow vianza were targeted, including homes and civilian infrastructure. were limo? good? good. i was just coming back home. everything should have been all right. fortunate

. i had just left a shop. there was the post office and just beyond as there was a lot of smoke already gonna come and i was lucky hot on it. i got to the street and i was told not to go any further because of the explosions with the dental group group. we want to look at the actual ukrainian president vladimir lensky called it's another terror attack on his country. was we changed it as $300.00 missiles hit residential areas, regular civilian buildings. there are people under the rubble. everything is being done to save them. everything is being done to save the wounded, was unable, it weighs pitched. the city of buck moot is just 50 kilometers to the south at slo vianza and is a site of the heaviest fighting on the ukrainian front line. but for ukrainians, attacks on homes like these abra reminder that no way is safe

while germany is closing its last 3 nuclear power plants today bringing 6 decades of nuclear energy to an end reactors reduce be taken off. great. last year, their life spans were extended to combat the energy crisis. critics argue the plant should remain open in light of soaring energy costs. germany is sticking to his aim of relying on renewable energy for the majority of its power needs by 2035. the uk up blankenberg as a member of the german when this talk, he's also the spokesperson for nuclear policy for the social democrats. since germany's final 3 nuclear power stations are being taken offline today. i asked him if he considers this to be a good day. yes, i think it's a good day. nuclear energy is a high risk technology because nuclear reactors are vulnerable. for example, for nuclear natural events as we have seen in fukushima japan several years ago. and they won't grow vulnerable for combat operations. you just have to look into

the ukraine and all the news we get from separation and direct your reactor over there, bad. but we also must not forget that there is no solution for how to handle the nuclear waste. one of the most, most, most dangerous substances mankind has ever created in the next 30000 generations will have to deal with it. germany does differ even from its european allies. in some ways, france is actually building new reactors to increase electricity supply does germany know something that france doesn't? well, in germany we had made the decision to step out of the nuclear energy several years ago. 2011 to be specific. and since then we have prepared for the state nuclear energy just makes up a small percentage on single digit percentage of our energy supply. and more than

50 percent of our, of our energy mix is coming from renewables. and we will re increase this number even further in the near future. so we just take a different part in that matter. and you mentioned germany promised to quit nuclear back in 2011 things these days though. certainly do look a lot different. there's an energy crisis, and a recent poll has showed that only a 3rd of germans think that switching off these plans is actually the right thing to do. given that public opinion, don't you think that this should be back up for discussion? we take those concerns very seriously and pulls also show that the main concern for the people is energy safety. and the 2nd point is the energy prices and low energy prices. and with completing the exit off nuclear energy to day, we will, we will once more take next step to battle,

those 2 issues. so energy will be released. we will be safe in germany and we will get cheaper energy because renewables are much cheaper to operate and to build in the short term. how is this going to affect energy prices? this will not, it will not effect energy prices, because as i said earlier, our energy mix just contains a single digit number, a single digit present, am and realize a single digit present of nuclear energy. and the vast majority comes from renewable energy and a small portion of coal. and we will phase out this as well to the end of the decade. but for now energy prices will stay stable. now, some critics might say that in an ideal world, we would use entirely renewable energy sources, but we are far from that goal. why not just keep running a nuclear power plants, a reliable source of low carbon energy,

and we badly need drastic cuts to emissions? why not just keep running them while we complete the transition to green our energy? well, even nuclear is not 100 percent. you to see to neutral when building new nuclear reactive. and when transporting the uranium to the nuclear power plant, there is c o 2 emissions. and on the other hand, we have to look that this energy source of energy is not coming without risk. i already said that the next $30000.00 generation generations will handle, will have to handle and deal with nuclear wait for which we do not have starch facility. yet as many other user countries of nuclear energy am they, they face the same problem. there is no plan and for how to handle that. and in my point of view, it's

a kind of decency to not put future generation in the position to have to handle even more of this really dangerous waste. when thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us on dw, that is blankenberg, s p d lawmaker in germany's coalition government really appreciate your time. thanks for having to japan now where a man has been charged following an explosion at a campaign event attended by prime minister from new casita. he was due to speak in the port city of what cairo mo, when a device was thrown in his direction sheet was brought to safety unharmed. but the incident follows the assassination of former prime minister sions of ave, in similar circumstances, less than a year ago. oh, it began is just another day on the campaign trail for japanese to i minister for me, cuz shita he was about to give his speech. when an object was thrown under man, wrestled to the ground, the hobbit he was visiting,

was plunged into chaos and a man taken into custody. following the blast, he shot to calm, shattered nerves. colo police are investigating the explosion at the fishing port tucker. i apologize for causing people to worry what we are holding an important election for the country and we must work together to see it through to the end. i say, well, he does, most of the incident comes at a time when japan is still in shock following the assassination of former prime minister sions of about just 9 months ago. the attack left a deep mark and a nation not known for political violence. no, gonna soon as again whether we're seeing similar incidents and given that this case with shita follows on from what happened to abby naughty, i think people are reassessing the idea of stump speeches, alcohol anyway, i'm glad that she does find legal group. she doesn't love with yoga, forgot when of security has been wrapped up after the attack with diplomats some, some of the world's most powerful democracies arriving in japan for the g. 7

foreign ministers meetings next month because she to will host the country's leaders in his home town. hiroshima. incidents like today's will have made many in japan. security service is increasingly nervous and haven't you are up to date coming up next after a short break? is it sports life or if you want mornings analysis, you always find that on our website at dw dot com or on our social media channels like twitter and instagram for him to learn is piece of the units. i'm richardson again or lynn for me in the whole team working behind the scenes. thanks for watching life when you work as an architect, it go all in or not at all. we.
