the, the 70 years dw, the, this is the, the new live from bell in a temporary reprieve for him, or on con, boxed on the phone with 5 minutes to is granted 2 weeks failed. in one corruption case and the court rules, he cannot be arrested in other cases, against also on the program of a senior leader. if he is remich jihad minutes and group is killed. and the latest

is really a strike on the gaza strip. that's been a search and cross border strikes in the most violent confrontation in months between palestinian militants as well. plus the u. s. and basset to south africa. it's use this country of supplying weapons to russia and attend this time naval operation. the locations draw an angry rebuke from for tauriel, as the government launched as an inquiry into the events of the opposition candidate poles. the head of the poles, the head of crucial elections in turkey. the challenge from kim own is down good in the role of president dredge upside that on the god of his walk. a welcome to the program, stock stones phone,

the prime minister in run cars gone to 2 weeks of bail on friday by a high court in the capital is the bond cons arrest on corruption. charges has triggered the deadly clashes before being declared illegal by pakistan. supreme court. com left the as long as the court is quoted by security, the routing also granted con, 2 weeks of protection from re a rest and the corruption case, the gold later ordered the authorities also not to arrest con on other charges until at least wednesday. cons possibly this say they will call for further protests if he is arrested again and i asked the gentlest and machine a boss and his mom about to walk us through the reaction from him run con and his support a sofa. uh well at the moment a man hon. supporters are cautiously optimistic. um, supporters don't feel like around honda is completely out of the woods just yet because their developments occurring minute by minute including that which we see

in front of us and most likely main discussions behind the scenes which we are not privy to. um, so at the moment i would just say cautiously optimistic. now, what about the reaction from the authorities? they have the military well, the reaction from the government is being widely viewed as more emotional than civic or legal. everything happening in fall cosign if it has any favorable result from non kind, is immediately being done, whether it is internet access or elections, everything that me a favor and run hon. the state evarado is being used against it. now a bell is only for 2 weeks. is it too soon to expect things to come down now? oh, yeah, i it, it is too soon to say um, like i said earlier, being cautiously optimistic. but ultimately this will not be resolved just to street bar alone, the institutions and power centers coming to some sort of agreement that is what is

needed. and until that happens, one should just take all matters as a result. remind as buying any decisions against con, have spot such massive unrest across the country. well, years of economic growth essentially been erased. the military is an institution that is viewed as a stakeholder of economic and political policies that have led us to this moment. having retired and serving military officers in high positions and civilian institutions has exacerbated the perception. and iran han has always been a very popular iconic figure in buckets on from the time he was the captain of the cricket team and they won the world cup to having a charity cancer hospital. he seems to be a person that people trust and that he delivers. and that has translated into his, into his political career. so because of that and his ability to have captured the imagination of the urban middle class, which was previously

a political is why he has such widespread support. douglas machine boss the in as a lot of up for us. thank you very much and thank you. and for us as strikes on the gaza strip on friday, these really awful as hits in the apartment building, killing a top come on to off, is lumnick jihad 6 come on. those of the militant palestinian group have now been killed and is rarely strikes on garza this week. the attacks of pomp of escalating violence between israel and palestine. the militants were 5 rockets into israel despite a 12 hour lol. a longer seats 5 remains out of reach. so father fighting us kills and leaves really man more than 30 palestinians. so he's on that's on is a journalist who is in gaza city right now and early i'm i also what the situation on the ground looks like. so i'm actually just returning from filming in the field

. and i was where this attack just recently happened. i could see the house being burned out. it's an apartment building and on the upper floor, an entire floor being hit by um and is really extra. it said um it said to have killed the senior. as long as you had steger, i could see the, the reading, the floor being conducted with firefighters there. and the question is now, what is that going to add to the ongoing process this afternoon was fairly quiet with regards to records being launched from gaza to israel. the warehouse ever a lot of is really strikes in gaza. this came as a response yet again to mark as being launched early on this day from gaza towards jerusalem. and the israeli government has promised a very strong reaction to this. and we could have seen this uh this afternoon and the question is now what's gonna happen tonight after this event, just recently we just made is not months, rocket fi in the direction of israel all there any signs of

a possible retaliation from islamic jihad. so exactly, that seems to be picking up again. we're hearing about record sirens in different parts of israel, and we're hearing about rockets being launched from the guys and strip towards israel. and it's likely that that's going to pick up again as a reaction to the killing of the senior. and as long as you had figured, it is worth noting know that so far know how nice a site has been targeted. that how much has not been actively involved in this round of fighting. and the role that i must place usually makes a big difference. so what happened this afternoon with the records? by as long as you had being fired to it towards jerusalem, that to a halt and the cease fire negotiations. so we have to see the situation on the ground is going to develop, but it's likely that there will be retire from atlanta jobs. so you just mentioned,

this is fine negotiations. that seems more and more unlikely at this point. does it not? to be honest, it's extremely hard to say what's happening right now. we're pretty far and it looks like both sides were actually willing because there was a fairly long period of quite this over the night from the side of the house and inside the records fired from here to israel, a fairly restrained response by israel during the night uh, to the killing of one is really yesterday by a rock and some guy, but then things picked up again today. and as i mentioned, the record toward is, are all that had a big impact. and that actually was the reason for the is released to hauled the ceasefire negotiations. they're still on their way the heavy international pressure from egypt from us, from european countries. but you can hear maybe just behind me there's, there's really fighter jets again. and well, we're hoping it's

a round of 5 and you're going to come turn into the sophie fund that's on the in gauze for us. thank you very much. so here's a look at some, all the other stories making news around the world. the un says $200000.00 people have fled, sit down since violence erupted last month, thousands of arrived in jobs and recent days. meanwhile, sedans, warring factions have signed a deal broke in saudi arabia on rules to enable the delivery of humanitarian aid. the expiry of 10 demik era immigration rules that allowed us border agents to quickly send migraines back to mexico as led to a huge gathering of people at the border looking to cross many more i expected to attempt to cross in the coming days. there was confusion of a new asylum regulations introduced by the 5 administration fee us has approved

a deal to sell channel helicopters to germany for $8500000000.00 fairly and wants to buy 60 of the ac hoffman is hoping to finalize the agreement soon. the double road to heavy lift helicopter is used to transport troops and equipment by military's around the world. iran has released to frenchman who had been jailed in separate cases. they were accused of spreading propaganda and of spying. that off at law also holds irish citizenship. and bonds, a monthly yeah, we're both fried on schuman and terry and grounds, following negotiations between the 2, ron and the irish and french governments to the south africa. minnesota for arms control, says the government has not approved any weapon shipments to russia. that's a day off to the us ambassador to the country accused victoria of doing exactly that. further than serial, rama posts a told parliament, his government was looking into the claims in december last year,

the russian cargo vessel, the lady, are visited, south africa's main naval base and the press conference on thursday. the american ambassador to south africa said the us had intelligence that weaponry was loaded onto the ship before to attempt to rush out the invoice. that the incident calls into question south africa's proclaimed policy of neutrality between russia and ukraine. the government of south africa is in fact not, not amongst the things we noted were the docking of the russian cargo ship lady are in simon's town between december, 6th and december, 8th, 20 to which we are confident, up loaded weapons and munitions onto that vessel inside this town, as it made its way back to russia, which does not suggest to us the actions of the not allied countries. w is

privilege the most money or is in type town and told us earlier about the government's reaction to the accusations of the american invoice. let's get this. i'll have to get in. government have 3 actions. they say that they have very much consent about uh, the statements that were met by the us. ambassador reuben brigitte. um, uh, they issued a statement. i quotes to say that, um, so i have to go to the, the remarks under my, the speech of cooperation. and, but i see that cutting sunrise, the recent engagements between the us government officials and the south african delegation led by the national security to special adviser for the president of sydney for monday. so there was a delegation that was in the us in the past week. and now coming these remarks, the south african government is say,

is that it is concerned about this. the issue of the lady ira rushing vessel was discussed and they had agreed that this going to be an investigation into these. and the us intelligence would provide any evidence that they have now the us invoice statement has already cause some negative economic reactions. what's happening in the markets. so that runs uh, slipped uh, almost 2 percent um on. uh, one says that the, uh, the trading at 19 runs to, uh, the us dollar. you find that? yes, there was this 2 percent slump in the, in the around, but either lease or it does say that of course it's going to be a reaction to the remarks by this stage that is going on. but likely they say

that's already been run and was already going down because of a lot of issues that are happening in the court on the chief amongst them is the issue all 5, the ongoing paul, cuz in the country. so this is affecting the corner me as well. so it is not only the remarks that are being um, you know, pin pointed to be affecting the performance of the brand. now, so the south africa says it is neutral, but the ruling and see does have long standing ties to russia. does it not? yes, of cause there's been a long writing relationship between russia and n c. and this dates back when the band see was up in the struggle again as the posit are actually all schools the soviet union supported liberation movements across africa and n c was a one o feet. so these, that's

a longstanding relationship between russia and alaska. so, um you would see even going for the to present day. so i figure out that's why also, so that's like i'm always maintains that strong relationship between russia indeed . so because of that support that the good when they were struggling now getting into a positive for this was but here in cape town, beth, thank you very much. i a german is foreign minister and i babble goals of us talking sciences. spoke to these w about the reports of the alleged on shipments from south africa to russia to get the 2nd level big, the 23rd declarations by the g. 20 day tide. so which involves both sides africa on china, that this war must be entered the soon as possible. the end merchant, if you want to end this war and this need for the bombing by russia on the rock is a tax must be stopped hunger stage. we had been supplying weapons to support the aggressor. i thought the offices avenging a war he can say,

will be the publication of a war of aggression that pilots international law. and that's why we take all these reports very, very seriously absorption. i'm very concerned about these report just gave him how to form it as a bab spoke to the w and still call him what you find ministers meeting to discuss policy and security issues and with the war and ukraine at the top of the agenda. they have set aside the afternoon for a strategic discussion on a huge china relations given china stones on rush us invasion after the carpet 19 pandemic, and in the midst of the war and ukraine. the european union is reviewing its relationship with china, bilateral relations between brussels and badging have deteriorated in recent years . like this, the point of contention being the war and ukraine way europeans rejects china, is position of neutrality. china is indeed supporting the russian war of aggression

in ukraine. they do that the plumb, magically they do that politically. they do that economically. they even allow some of their companies to sell goods to the russians that can be used in enhancing the ominous but they still with the consensus in europe that the he you trying to relations which are largely based on trade a simply too big to fail. the chief, as a fund line recently said there was a need to reduce the dependency on chinese resources and manufacturing. but the cutting ties with china was not in your its interest. understand these government has received the message clearly from european leaders. that, that's the relationship that the china relationship now pass is also to keep. so basically, this relationship is determined by the actions that the chinese will take re, uh,

these are the um, the, the war of new great. the raw signs, things could sell quickly. brussels may target several chinese companies believe to be helping russia get around sanctions and you can bet there would be a backlash from badging just this week. trying his foreign minister, one his country would react strongly if you wish to follow through on this model that i'm no joined by it's on the phenomena w as brussels barrett c foods in stockholm with a foreign ministers that i found the what came out of these discussions regarding relations with china as well. the question that is here on the agenda is how to deal with china's global ambitions. and this is a huge challenge for the you appear in the union as we have just seen. and until now, member states were on the same page that china is to be seen as a partner as a competitor and assist him in quiet. well, the problem is that this viable lead this aspect has been deepening in the last

years and months. and of course, that needs to be addressed at the same time. however, s b, e u foreign policy chief feels at bro, told us we still need as you opinions, as he said, china to souls global issues such as a global foot secuity for instance, or climate change. china is burning more cold and all the other nations together. he told us what the problem is that at the moment china doesn't seem to be willing to engage. so those global issues, and that is something that needs to be address. that is something that's a minister's discussed here as well. of course, the business is also a fact to just remind as a how important is china for the you use economy? well, utility, right? china is the use, 2nd lodges of trade partner in goods. and of course, that is very important. however,

the sense here is that this partnership that this trade partnership has been becoming more and more in balance when it comes to access of, to europe and companies to the chinese market. but also when it comes to the few future industries, the industries that are so important for the future. for instance, critical role materials, the opinion is totally dependent on china in this area. or when it comes to a solar technologies, the china is also domina there. so the strategy now that is being discussed is how to be less dependent on china and how to protect the economic market into your p in union. when it comes, for instance, the potential risk took to risk the restrictions on exports of advance technology to a china or to other issues that are now being discussed. now trying to decide what else was discussed at that meeting, then stuck on ministers also discussed how to continue supporting q

queen and how to prevent companies, 3rd, countries from evading ease sanctions against russia. and here again, we are talking about china not only, but also there are a several chinese companies that are apparently delivering to l. u scoots to russia at that age, restaurants for machinery. so they could end up on the sanctions, least in the future. but that is also something that is still being discussed. i found the phenomena the use of brussels bureau chief imported from stucco. thank you very much. i someone starkey is preparing to head to the falls on sunday and crusoe parliamentary and presidential elections that could mock the end of wedge of type added one's rule. both show the main opposition candidates came all can as dar lou and a slide lead get started,

who has promised to release and present opposition figures and restore media freedoms was boosted by the surprised withdrawal of another kind of candidate. on thursday, the close rice could end mold in 2 decades of adeline's divisive rule that has transformed turkey, 1st as prime minister then as president w. as a turkey correspondence julia han took a look at the main concerns that are likely to drive. boat is decisions. turkey with out the ridge of ty of add one for many people here that was long considered impossible. but soon his days in office could be over. as more than 60000000 voters for parents who had to the ballot books, let's look at the issues that could strengthen the president's grip on power. the most pressing concern to vote has something that's being felt by everyone. here is the cost of living crisis. food prices, for example,

have skyrocketed in recent years and even many middle cost of say they find it harder and harder to afford a decent standard of living. the value of the taxes you levi has plummeted with inflation heating, 85 percent last october. that's the highest, it's been in 25 years. many blame the situation on ad one's unconventional economic policies. the president has also been criticized for his slow response to the devastating earthquakes that struck to a key se. only 3 months ago. more than 50000 people were killed. the experts say failure to impose building codes is to blame for the highly dest told. and that ad one's highly centralized system of power had weakened, state institutions. in the course of the 20 years that ad one has been in power, he has hollowed out the democratic system. critics say he's face party loyalists

and key positions crushed down on civil rights organizations and vote most of the media under government control. while add one still enjoys the support of many religious conservatives. others say they are increasingly put off by his strong men who they get better. he also faces an unusually galvanized opposition. 6, very diverse parties. the nation alliance have united behind one candidate. come all coached all of their stated aims to roll back the powers of the presidency, repair the aging economy and renew talk each democracy. in this election, the opposition is presenting voters with a much stronger alternative to add one than ever before with

a very different division for the countries future. one that appeals to a wide section of people here combined that with the issues that are touching people's lives ahead of the selection. and it makes a victory for ad on anything. but so this bolts now this week, ukrainian athletes, a boy called thing, the well do the championships income tar because the sport is allowing russians and televisions to compete under a neutral flag following ukraine's boy called the international judo federation bod 8 members of russia squad, who were believed to be active soldiers. now it's fit that similar chaos, cut the car across the various sports that next use power. so lympics, the ukranian athletes have won their fair share of titles and the sport of judo. some in the prime of their careers are now putting principles the head of any potential prize by staying on the sidelines during the judo world championships in

cutoff. yeah, i understand that this was the chance to in the middle that the moment i'm very upset by the fact that we're missing the world championships and kept tough for me, which i totally support the decision. ukraine's position is clear. they want all russian and bella rosie an athlete, banned from international sporting events, neutral flags, or not bigger until then ukraine will refrain from every competition that welcomes those athletes. it's just that there's no whole weight and boycotting if he participate in competitions with them. if we talk with them, if we meet them on matters on race tracks and swimming pools in the world to be convinced that everything is fine, the war is not going on. but the will is happening every day. people die every day . there's lots of destruction. next year's games in paris could see athletes from

russia, and bella roost compete as neutral there. and where with this lead ukrainian athletes presumably on the sidelines, once more standing on principles, a message from me and d, w as well. these team, i'm next and the news age of voters in thailand have a chance to move away from the military dominated governments. my colleague been physically and has that story envelopes will often sort. great cannot forget the setup on who is an analysis on our website d, w dot com gab offers in berlin from me and the tv news team here. thanks for the
