12:00 pm
old heritage side dw world heritage 360. now the, this is the w news live from the land claims this overnight drone attacks in russia's border region. those reports come the day off to russia's military, says it for self across the board. a raid from the cri, you crane keep denies being involved. so how worried is the kremlin about the tax on its own territory? also coming off of nationwide raid auto group has climate activists here in germany . the last generation is known for disruptive stones protesting
12:01 pm
a government in action on climate change. police say 7 members of being targeted as part of the criminal investigation and joining the race to become the us president in florida governor on desantis. this is his campaign to win the republican nomination at the latest hold show. show him fall behind the car in front runner. donald trump, the new keeps the kevin welcome to the program. we start with new claims of a drone attack in russia close to its border with you cried the governor. the southern belgrade regions has a large number with shut down by russian forces of the night. and this is the same area where russia claims to have cost across the border result from ukraine. keys
12:02 pm
has denied being involved in this attack. instead pointing the finger to an uprising by russian pulses ends against the kremlin. these other fighters who have claimed responsibility for an attack on russian villages across the border from ukraine. this footage posted on the telegram channel of the russian volunteer, cool and empty kremlin military group, allegedly shows that sciences on the russian territory near the ukrainian border crossing to one of the soldiers covers the russians dead. the symbol for rushes, invasion of ukraine, with a stick, a reading of the sea, russian, valencia cool. a 2nd group of russian dissidents also say they took part. they call themselves the liberty of russia legion. when we think you usually see who we are russians just like you, we're people just like you, when we want our children to grow up in peace and be free people to buy. and so
12:03 pm
that they can travel study and just be happy in a free country, but this has no place and pollutants, russia ross and from corruption lies censorship. restrictions on freedom and repression and pseudo going, she knew so both 8482 and a lot going on like russia, however, has blamed ukraine for the attack. almost the russian defense ministry claim didn't apply for the last thing around 24 hours. russian soldiers killed more than 70 ukrainian fighters and destroyed for homage vehicles. they weren't able to go, well, let me send you a new one in front of the twist, images of damage west and military vehicles released by russia. that just speculation that us weapons but used in the attacks. as we've seen some of the reports circulating on social media and elsewhere, making claims that us supplied weapons were using these attacks. i will say that we're skeptical at this time of the veracity of these reports as a more general principle, as we said. and i believe i said yesterday,
12:04 pm
we do not encourage or enable strikes inside of russia. and we've made that clear whoever is responsible, sees a tax on russian territory appear to be the most serious since rushes invasion of ukraine began. 15 months ago. the kremlin said residents from 9 villages in the border region has been evacuated to a safe area, especially in state tv shows these images claiming that dozens of people with forced to leave the homes as a result of the attacks. all right, let's get more from russia analyst come see, i got to joins us now from buildings and lithuania and constance. and can i ask you, does this attack show a crack in inputs in stem digging his popularity even within russia? so i don't think that we know anything about pollutants, real popularity, because no poles in russia are reliable of bots. it differently is
12:05 pm
a psychological operation by russians, evidently supported by ukraine to create a didn't 1st and foremost in the resumes perception of itself. it is not a military operation, per se, as far as i understand it, because there was a significant military go, was a cheap bots, issues and operations that shows we can break some russian border. we can destroy the vote. of course, we can shoot top your military and we can retreat. and that means you can do nothing about this. this message will spread well beyond belle grove, across the restaurants, in the mid level of russian throughout the sea, which runs russia on boots, has to be home. and they will be thinking, well, maybe this room is not as strong as we thought it was. so going forward should to send the full be worried about a new m t rule movement,
12:06 pm
an armed movement growing from within russia. that's all i think that's the hope of those people across the board of time and of uh, i'll fluff evidently the ukrainians. i think because of the rest of the may try to be off the russian project and because of the generally cost of 2 homes inside russia, it's very difficult to imagine pots is almost roaming russia from, from, from small lands to where the bus stop. however, i always think this is a sign in a very important message to the population of russia and to repeat it to the russian. good roxy, you know, pack your things and leave jump of this ship. whether it's what quickly i don't think so whether it will work overtime on such and it will because we've seen recently elements of corrects in the system for example,
12:07 pm
puts in actually filtering every single, every single civil 7th up from southern level to actually stay put and not offer resignations, that means they are afraid that people will resign and run the way. so i think that this has an impact, the psychological operations rather than the mentors. that's really interesting. we haven't seen much reaction for most guys so far. so from what you're saying, this isn't really surprising, is that, oh, it isn't that mean what can be say, was your why kelly repulsed a bunch of people that officially belong, know where in the managed to penetrate the russia full tends to be because of gets into russia a time of 20 or 30 kilometers and then retreats. okay, they destroyed so many of those people as they say, which we don't know. i mean, the russian, russian figures on verifiable russian states and some, i'm verifiable. so this was supposed to be the 2nd most efficient and fearsome army
12:08 pm
in the world. and i was fighting a bunch of nobody is. i mean, that's, i mean, if i were to meet the discuss, put in spokesman, i'd be really scratching my head very intensely as to call a spinnet or not. i will have to leave it live. but as of a constant, i get reporting from building this in this way and you know, thank you so much. thank you. now, sanctions on most go for it for a new crane. have shots russian ships out of o e u and many other european hub is but 3 norwegian ports continue to provide must go with crucial access to mainland europe. russian privileges on. now in question of to a recent documentary by a know that could broad costa, that investigation costs doubts on what russian fishing vessels using the ports are actually doing the w's. terry shirts, reports now from the port town of car kenneth in norway.
12:09 pm
russian fishing vessels can still stop over and care can ascend to other norwegian port for now. moscow demanded continued access in exchange for keeping a live of 50 year old agreement, protecting cod stocks. but after a recent documentary, publicly exposed with intelligence officials of long known that many of russia's fishing ships double s by ships, the norwegian government is re evaluating whether the deal is worth the risks. the question is, how closely do you monitor? uh, are you able to monitor those ships that are coming in? which city are allowed in and is this necessary to has the government says, maintain this fisher? if it's a fishing corporation with russia, this is a difficult balance. do you think that other nato allies now see norway as a weak link and security? i don't think so. and if the government gets the impression that the assistant control isn't that's possible anymore. they would have to close the box. no,
12:10 pm
we didn't. government has just boosted funds for inspecting russian vessels and is investigating more than a dozen companies, it suspects of violating sanctions. those measures have already hit here, can it's hard, strictly limiting services to russian ships to unloading fish or emergency repairs and almost completely closing the land border. just 8 kilometers away before the war. people from both sides regularly crossed to do every day shopping. there would always be a before and after the nation. absolutely for us living here, it will be before and after. think jenny spring grew up here and now we're supporting business and people to people connections in the region. she says everyone in care goodness supports the sanctions, but they're suffering. so for example, that can you make the shipyard? they have 83 employees. so it's a huge business there for our science, this community. so for us to stay our get unemployed, the catastrophe for our community,
12:11 pm
the owner of the kim x ship yard has long warranty might have to cut those jobs if the port is completely close to russian vessels. but he refused our request for an interview other kicking his residents were willing to speak out about their concerns at a town hall meeting with norwegian trade minister, young christian investor. it's our job now to find solutions to bring some hope and some of the new ideas we cannot and will not let the brochure with this more. so we have to deal with this functions that we have to make sure that these transition for this community. it can be the best possible way port director tells you get against and has some ideas about that ones that might be controversial. we're talking with tony's operators. and that is also a delicate question. and we may be accused of going from intimate cooperation with russia to implement corporation with china. but as long as there's one t sort going from that asia to europe, it's a go through the northern see rock keeping far northern towns populated is
12:12 pm
a pillar of nor ways national security strategy. so cure can assist. survival is something also has to prioritize. but at the same time, it's got needle allies to answer to on how it's keeping under see infrastructure and communication cable safe from russian vessels trolling for more than fish. and terry schultz who follow that report joins us now. hi, that's very good to see. and as you mentioned in your report, it's not a surprise for intelligence officials is that some of these russian fishing vessels also used the espionage. so, you know, the question is why didn't no way just bottom that's true. it's always been known that there it was russian surveillance taking place in these waters and, you know, but, but people sort of thought that there was, was a cap on it. there was a limit to it. what this documentary showed was that it was far more prevalent than had been known at least publicly,
12:13 pm
because these journalists attract many ships as calculators that there may be as many as 2000 russian ships doing this subversive surveillance. and so that's the big concern now. but norway has this 50 year tradition of cooperating with russia on fishing. and it didn't want to throw that all away. so it really thought that by leaving just 3 ports open and closing the rest of them, that it could keep control of, of this, this activity. you just mentioned this, this long history, new way of cooperation with russia. so how to people feel about these functions. i mean, do they feel conflicted to the people in care can as are very much dependent on business from russia, not just in the port, but also in their everyday stores. uh, there were, there were some $250000.00 border crossings each way before russia started waging war on ukraine. so i would say that the people don't feel so conflicted about the sanctions. every person i spoke with, their said rush, i cannot get away with this with their sad about is that russian decided to invade
12:14 pm
. it's a neighbor end. but now such measures are necessary that we're taking such a huge total on this community, which i should point out is, is just some $3500.00 people. it's tiny. the, the recent documentary we're talking about by an audit bro, cost a seems to suggest that russian spying from the sea is on the rise. so it is vast. in fact, the case, it's very hard to measure because as a documentary pointed out the ships that are doing this activity turn off their transponders in fact, so they cannot be tracked. so the documentary and i can't give enough credit to it, spent a year looking at what the ships did, that couldn't be tracked in any other way. one of the things that has happened since then is that more russian diplomats, or we should say, the espionage of practitioners have been kicked out of embassies. and so there's the concern that there will be even more spine done from
12:15 pm
the sea as they lose more of their agents on the ground. so it could, in fact be on the rise. now as russia loses other opportunities to conduct surveillance on the ground. all right, and what about nate's, i mean, what's nato stance on russian ships still being allowed to delkin in ports the deposit of alliance territory? so it's a tricky question. uh, of course norway is a very style work member of the alliance. the secretary general is norwegian, so you can, you can assume that there's very good communication between norway and it's nato allies. what one official in norway pointed out to me was that if, if nato allies really believed that, that russian spine was on the increase and that it couldn't be controlled. and then, or we didn't ports, they would be shut down. that is something that, you know, we didn't, government is looking into right now. and in fact, just in the week before i arrived there, they put out a notice to companies in norway, reminding them of their obligations not to provide additional services to russian ships. and some 20 norwegian companies are under investigation right now for
12:16 pm
violating sanctions. so also is definitely trying to track down on any other ways that companies there are helping russian business. fascinating staff d, w 's. terry schultz. thank you so much for that. all right, let's take, let's take a look now, some of the other stories making headlines around the world. a powerful storm is approaching the us pacific territory of guam home to a crucial military outpost type food. and the why is expected to be the strongest to hit the island in decades. the government has ordered residents of coastal and low line areas to evacuate to higher ground. a fundraising campaign has secure to at least $6000000.00 to preserve and restore the childhood home of nina simone, the late us solar music legend and civil rights activists. the aim is to turn the 3 room house in rural, north carolina into a cultural and historic sites. it is more than $100.00 us an equal make as one to
12:17 pm
an m, a rossi, oil executive to be removed as the does, isn't designated share the next united nations climate summit, salt and algebra is the head of the abu dhabi now for the oil company and also the u. a. e's climate envoy and critics claim that allowing him to head the event would allow private sector pollutes, has undue influence at december's summit. i think now nationwide such is all taking place across germany targeting the climate action group known as last generation activists from the group regularly stage civil disobedience protests including blocking roads and the facing pieces of ox prosecute. isn't bavaria say 15 prophecies are being searched across germany. assets belonging to last generation invisibles have been seized. the rates relate to a string of criminal charges, filed against the group last year. some members accused of forming or supporting 8
12:18 pm
criminal organization. earlier or chief political correspondent, nina, honda explained why the last generation group is being regarded as a criminal organization by some prosecution as well. the main accusation is that those suspects that i've mentioned have organized a fundraising campaign to finance what the authorities cool quotes for the crimes full. the last generation they promoted the collection of money via the website. they managed to collect at least 1400000 yours and bavarian assorted. he said that the money has largely been used to finance, quote, crimes. and in addition, there's also an accusation of attempting to sabotage critical infrastructure. now the jury is still out when it comes to the question is the last generation of criminal organizational? not that is a pretty serious accusation. here in germany, you can get up to 5 years in prison or heavy fines. groups that have the goal to
12:19 pm
considerably disrupt public security are considered criminal organizations here. and interestingly, when you look at court rulings here in germany that dealt with the last in ration. the very much divided on that issue was authorities in southern germany, bottles and breton bug say that the fact that the groups have in the past looked at polls are threatened to sabotage critical infrastructure, like our refineries makes them a criminal organization. the prosecutor here in by lenses last week says that while the members of the groups do commit crimes, the complex folk of them being a criminal organization, but mainly what they did was create constant nuisance. that was dw use nina. honda . now to talk more about last generation, i'm the means of protest. i'm joined by the german climate act, this tough to law. he's not part of the last generation activist group, but he has defended the methods tough to welcome to dw,
12:20 pm
thank you for your time. and in a recent interview, even when you called the protests a, by these acts of this, a demonstration of the power of the movement. but it's able to bring, assess the light bulb in to its knees. but the question is on the, in fact a liaising alien icing people who actually share the annual concerns about climate change? well, i think in order to understand the answer, the question we need to contextualize is a bit more a festival. first part of the context is the rapid escalation of the climate emergency. second part of the context is the total failure of time of policy in that sense of planning protection. and the 3rd part of the context is the active driving forward of the climate. catastrophe by expanding fossil fuels, which all northern governments are doing. now, in this situation, we're seeing a trans national attack on the kind of movement from the u. s. d pay off of trailer italy, germany, and it's clearly a case of shooting the messenger. essentially,
12:21 pm
we have societies, i've decided to ignore the climate emergency had maybe pay lip service wanting to protect the climate. but really, when it comes to actually changing habits, giving up privileges, material, the distribution of fundamental transformation, northern rich societies, i'm just not, you know, we're not going to do that. we're simply not prepared to give up any of our wealth and privileges. now those are the kind of soft majorities that people refer to and they say the 20 people and the last generation is 20 people of the count cause of the time of protection. in fact, i believe that the actions of the last generation are in the way of pre figuration of the future of to find the policy and time protection, which is going to be annoying, which is going to interrupt our daily lives. i'm just going to be contested. and because the auction to the lost and ration create that sense for people. oh my god, doing something about the climate actually is stressful. it's annoying and we have to give up our privileges and certain moments here. well, that's why they're being hated. they're not turning people off of the climate, but they're making it increasingly impossible for you to say oh,
12:22 pm
i support protection for the climate, but i'm not actually ready to give up anything for it. okay. i think that's the context. it's, it's that, that is solving the sol majorities for climate protects them showing who is actually out there to protect excitement. okay, so let's talk specifically about some of the tactics now. it's quite well known that was an occasion when i activists through mashed potato as a monet oil painting. now the question again, why gloss in front of a more than a oil painting and the monet painting was all damaged, both trying to find out why i mean, you know, the, obviously, the, the, the visual impacts of that is you're giving the sense that you're damaging a value oil painting, why are they not 12 targets in the oil companies that they say are responsible for, you know, climate chaos. so again, you know, most are they trying to achieve, why aren't they going to the people who say that during the damage way. so, so 1st of all, so i've been excited activist for 15 years. i'm also have movement reset to and i
12:23 pm
can say that of all the things that you're suggesting going to the decision makers protesting at the points of destruction, of fossil fuel corporations, coal, pets. i mean, you all had the story of looks about the village that was taken down in january and made to make way or a cold line. now we haven't done all these things. we have protested outside are to be unbutton file and various coal companies. we are protesting and locating against the expansion of energy infrastructure on moving in the north of gemini, we have tried to blockade or protest in front of palm if we haven't done all these things and they have yielded absolutely nothing. in fact, i live in the country that in the middle of a time, an emergency is driving for the expansion of fossil fuel infrastructure with the energy infrastructure expense. so we have done the things that folks are now asking us to do and have realized that they do not use any results. because we live in a society that doesn't have the problem of not knowing about the kind of crisis. it
12:24 pm
doesn't want to know about the assignment in the time of emergency. and therefore, the last to ration is choosing tactics that disrupt the kind of normality that people are clinging onto which to essentially for the life we're seeing right now in italy, in some like in italy, in somalia, in spain and little way in southern asia with seeing the effects of her climate emergency and societies in the north, a simply ignoring them. i don't know how many rivers have to be dry, how many lakes have to be bound or how many people need to touch? so let me, let me ask you one last question. let me ask you one because we are running out of time, so you will say, or no effect, nothing that has happened so far has had any effect on climate policy now and any, any sufficient effect. okay? now the german trunks and it will actually, it's recently lost of the process by last generation, cooling them completely not. so again, my question, if you say, you know, there has been no effects on climate policy, but is what they're doing. going to walk, as well as
12:25 pm
a kind of translate with governments expanding fossil fuel, the infrastructure in the middle of the climate dimension to tell me sums it tells me somebody is completely not. i'm assuming he's projecting rather than describing . so i suppose the last veneration because they are rupturing them, ality that is destroying the world and for that and the coverage, i think some will have to leave it that. but thank you so much for your time, jim, and time it activist. talk to miller. the paper by now the spanish football federation has announced that they will partially close the south stand at valencia's ms. dia, stodgy and stadium for 5 games and find the club. 45, a 1000 years now this decision comes following the arrest of 3 funds off to the brazilian forward vanessia as junior was subject to races, torrents during sundays. lolita game between valencia unreal madrid. and this us as
