the, the, this is dw, use life from the land fire bones at an oil refinery in southern russia after a suspected drones strike, the unmanned weapons of bringing the war in new crane to russia, including the lead neighborhoods of the capital. most of your brain denies carrying out the attacks will take an intense look at how strong the shape of the wall every dilutes in south korea and japan is north korea tries and fails to send a spice satellite. to all this assault,

he's pulled off the mass evacuation that spunk to panic, and space 6 success as it's 2nd private, as road permission to the international space station splashes down. safely back on the us. we look at the future world space tourism. the russia is accusing ukraine of mo, drawing the tax in its territory. this time an oil refinery in southern rush. it, we're a fine, it broke out. it comes a day off the most go was hit by a drone. the blame game continues on who was behind that keeps says it had nothing to do with the attack. russia as being launching waves of drones on ukraine since last year. the latest strikes heating of the tuesday. the russian air strikes hit the ukrainian capital for the 17th time in the month of may across the

country for people were killed and dozens injured. ukraine's president seem to criticize public safety officials after the deadly wave you quote, your show my want the local officials responsible for certain communities and territories to hear me now that the shelters in cities have to be accessible. people should know when and how the number and availability of shelters will increase it. this is the responsibility of specific officials. see that there was also a rare attack on russia's capital. official say, dozens of drones at moscow. wounding 2 people. president vladimir putin condemned to the raid exclusive, the key regime is chosen a different path. the path of trying to frighten russia, frightening the citizens of russia and of strikes on residential buildings that are for the wonder if it's

a grand ukrainian presidential. a denied direct responsibility for the drug strikes would welcome to the site and predicted more to come miles from the us official said their support for ukraine's fight ended edits, borders. everyone had a look as it relates to the drone attacks that we saw in mass kind of, we've been very clear, we're going to see, we're going to gather information and see exactly what happens. so just want to be very clear about that. look, we do not support attacks inside of russia, but whatever washington's official stance actions will speak louder than words. the us is expected to announce a large aid package for ukraine this week, a part of which will be additional ammunition for drones. drones could make all the difference in the board, ukraine. that's the view of one of the few quaint, specialized drawing brigades, both sides in the conflict to have deployed on by the aerial vehicles with russia

using a rainy and made drugs to radio leap on cities like he's. next report looks at how ukraine is using drugs to out spots invite. it's a safe distance from the hail that his boss. smoot valid t ms. cradling the eyes of the ukrainian army on his shoulder. this little drawing takes its name from the local ward for stork, and it's no, i'm much valued asset ukrainian fighters engaged in trench warfare as it spies on their enemies from above the, the people who knows the success of a certain operation may depend on the work and efficiency of the u, a v unit to communicate this work to carry as much responsibility in order to, to, to utilize. so those are the 3 of the recognizance drones, also known as u. e. v. have picked up images like this. russian infantry throwing a blanket over their hurts in bus mode or russian trucks. how you doing in the

forest to to but it saves lives. either you go ahead blind and walk into a trap for you get guidance from the sky because it, this is not for the. and then there are the attack drones jeep nimble. unpacked with explosives. they're capable of landing a daily blow on unsuspecting combatants. select because of the eyes of the army. these are the fest for the drone, which you go to $300.00 and can be bought in any one be solved is capable of destroying online. it is not our team has done many die on the settle below. if you have described the enemies bank, simply have you ministry equipment and personnel is onto some very effective. gotcha. so boy, scott, but the, and there are no wonder that you created on the set to be investing heavily in such low cost kamikaze drones. and the teams needed to operate and so just he claimed

these weapons, unlike all those are in heavy as to rushes. jamming systems may buzz from where we see a tank driving. we fit them a piercing explosive to this across in the let to fly. when we see inventory, we've put the drug with shrapnel explosives and we fly it with if it's a building wheel, so fitted with trap metal explosive and we fly inside the building. this may just be a demonstration today. on the fighters of the 35th marine would gauge to leave such tools of modern warfare will prove decisive in the counter offensive. i asked the textbooks all, let me show how hot it is to detect a drawing before it approaches its target, as it can be incredibly difficult. a lot of the defense systems that exist in most countries are designed to detect large foss moving aircraft,

such as man to fight to just drones us small. they fly very low to the ground in many cases. and they, they fight very slowly, which makes them very, very hard to detect. if one can detect them, it is often when they are already very close to that target, which doesn't give you a lot of time to respond and trying to say intercepts the drone or, or inter jammy and will shoot it down. so there is surveillance, drones and attack drugs which ones a more crucial for ukraine tap you know, in a way it's the drones that provide intelligence to all the weapons since these drones rough and quite small. and sometimes they can be quite vulnerable. i mean, a lot of them do get shut down, you know, they're limited in the effect that they can actually deliver in terms of putting well heads on targets. but if a drum can pass intelligence from its video to say in a taylor unit or to a tank. and that can actually, in many cases have a much greater impact on the ground. so who's better equipped when it comes to

drawing wolf at rush hour, you cry? that's, that's hard to say, you know, in, in, in some cases it's not necessarily about the quality of the drones so much as the production capacity. you know, sometimes having a small number of very, very good drones is not as useful. ready as having a very, very large quantity of, of, of drums that are kind of low order. and so hard to say, you know, both countries say they're ramping up their production capacity. there's information about iran delivering drones to russia, but it's a little hard to get a close grasp on that. that being said, i wouldn't say that there is a huge disparity. the one the, all, the other side is sort of decades ahead of the other intensive drone technology. but tell us, help us size if and i find that drives because when it comes to precision alternatives to conventional weapons,

are they an alternative that they can potentially have quite high precision? you know, especially because of this intelligence gathering quality of the quality that they have. they can fly over a target for a long time, gathering intelligence before conducting a strike. but then precision goes down when you're talking about long range strikes and the, the enemy defending itself, for example, jamming the drones. and that will in many cases, send the drones, of course, in which case the precision goes way down and that just much less affective. but yes is generally said, the drones are quite precise. also, though it's because they have much smaller warheads, then say, you know, a large miss style or, or not tillery bear odds. and so that naturally lends itself to a greater degree of precision. okay, you use a quite precise so is that going to be a day where we don't need to send actual people soldiers to the front line

of i guess this whole thing here about artificial intelligence and you know that there are 2 parts of that. one is the technology definitely isn't ready. i don't see it being ready for quite a long time. and the reason i say that is because military commanders, they want to know what their forces are going to do in battle. they want to have some level of control and artificial intelligence still isn't predictable enough to do that. you know, i don't think that would still be that level of trust. that being said, artificial intelligence is emerging in all sorts of sort of smaller inc for mental ways and will affect which tend potentially be used by commanders to kind of remove themselves further from the decision making loop while still having some level of control but fully autonomous sort of, you know, killer robots, but that's still a little bit in the future. okay. interesting insights day from the other. hold on

michelle, research a and a, i expect. thank you. and we now have some breaking news. police here in germany has arrested 7 legs, supporters of the so called is nomic state for women. and friedman, a suspect that have taken part in a network that sort donations for the as well as terrorist group in syria. it will rides in over a dozen locations across germany and benevolence. that's bringing out chief, political correspondent, need a honda. you know, what more can you tell us about the locations and targets? so these rates as well. 7, the suspects have been arrested in 3 of the 16 deadman states, all of them, by the way, in the west of the country. and all of those suspects are accused of belonging to an international network that has been financing the activities of i s in syria or help finance it through donation system and the rates this morning that was quite

some big operation. more than a 1000 offices were on the ground and search some 100 properties in 6 german states as well as in the netherlands. do you have anymore information about these 7 suspects? not a lot, but the group that has been arrested are accused of having been the middle men and women of that financial support network for i s. so there is another 2 women who are accused of being sort of of the women, not the full front of collecting the donations, but the group that was arrested now with the middle men and women. and and since 2020, that network has collected at least 65000 euros and has transferred the money to syria to and imprisoned. all yes, members there in the, our whole and groans comes to improve the conditions of those prisoners that, but some of the prisoners also manage to escape because of that money with the help of that money. said the gen prosecution in the statement. now what else do we know

about these people? 4 of them said the majority of them are german citizens. but there's also a man with a background and cost a vote. and a woman with tech and citizenship as well as someone with dual citizenship, devin, american. and are we talking about a bigger network of, of i as supporters here in germany or a handful of, of, of suspects in this case as well as investigations are ongoing, still and uh, the german domestic intelligence service is taking these logic state very seriously as a threat to democracy and stability here in this country. that was also very explicitly mentioned in last year's report from the domestic intelligence service. and they, at the time last year said that there was some 28290 people who have links to is lubbock state. and to is,

lemme is terrorism here in this country at the same time. we always have to keep in mind that the authorities here in germany, so the police and the intelligence services still say that's right when extremism is a much bigger threat, then islam is terrorism here in this country. and the watching these movements very closely as well. and we'll remember that just a couple of weeks ago that was a big great against members of the right wing extremists group. but the next domestic intelligence of the service report is going to come out very soon. so we'll get some more details on that. keeping those intelligence officers busy. chief political correspondent, nina, hans, and thank you very much for bringing us about breaking news. let's. let's take a look at some of the other stories making headlines. the suit, an easy ami, has suspended its participation in ceasefire tulips with its rivals. they, by the former deputy army chief as raising fee is the finding could once again flare up hopes of humanitarian aid reaching civilians have also been dashed.

attempts to reaching an effective sci fi i have failed, repeated. dependent on says the chinese war plain carried down and unnecessarily aggressive maneuver in international airspace over the south china sea. last week, footage shows the chinese find a buzzing you west military plane which shook from the turbulence. conflicting territorial claims have made the region of potential flash point. nato is sending hundreds more troops to northern cost of the following classes, between its peacekeepers and the ethnic serbs, they make up the majority in the countries. no offense, demanding the removal of recently elected ethnic albanian may is in so dominic accounts or if he is the situation accelerate north korea says it failed to launch a satellite into all that on wednesday when the rocket plunged into the sea. the

launch caused wide spread concern in south korea and japan with a lot of science sounding a mid fee, is that a ballistic missile from north korea could be targeting those countries. international sanctions and united nations resolutions prohibit north korea from developing missiles, but it has continued to do so with several villages taking place in recent months. i asked journalist frank smith in so if he thought the evacuation alerts in south korea or an over reaction to the launch attempt as well, leaving south korea's interior ministry admitted it was over the top. when a sol city issued that evacuation for a sol. ready residence um, in addition to an evacuation order following that, what was a text message? 02. 02 people in south green capital. there were thousands of searches that took place on neighbor, a popular mobile phone search engine so much so that it crashed,

leading to concerns about the sharing of information uh in such a period of hyphened attention. but still, it was a little bit over the top. that being said, we need to recognize there is an element of risk here. we've had a large scale joined us. so 3 military exercises launches of missiles from north korea, followed by launches of missiles from south korea. some of which uh, so 3 missiles went off course one landing 700 meters from a residential area. busy another completely lost. busy in flight, so when there are these tests going on, there is again, an element of risk. the north korean missile had an abnormal flight and failed. fortunately, landing about 200 kilometers south and south west of, of south korea in the yellow sea. and all the adults korea says it launched the

satellite uh which, which failed. uh, the us insists that are broken. the test was behind as well. to put a satellite into orbit, you need to use or a rock at a large rocket, especially depending on the the weight of that payload. so this is what they called dual use technology. it was just an april that north korea launched an icbm, a solid fuel icbm. it's recognized as a military application also in north korea seeking to place a surveillance and reconnaissance satellite into or but specifically for surveillance purposes of south korea. and us forces deployed in bases across so for you to better target them. so that makes this missile launch a little bit more aggressive. and, and this is why one of the reasons why the usaa is green japan and the

international community. much of that, including you and secretary general gutierrez, recognize this is a violation of un security council sanctions. generalist banks. smith, they're in the south korean capital. so thank you. asked for notes who took us in the most recent admission to the international space station have splashed down safely off the coast of florida in over 2 decades of continuous operation. the overall platform has housed hundreds of space varies from many nations. but this trip stood out for several reasons. so basically, because it was a commercial flights and the transported to saudi space, tourists as well as one us business. but so is the era of space tourism finally donate. and there's some dispute about what exactly defines a space tourist companies like virgin galactic or rival blue origin has been selling tickets to private individuals for sub orbital flights for years. and

dozens of them including those companies. founders have now taken the relatively short ride up into the region, technically defined as space, but when it comes to longer trips into orbit, everyone agrees that dennis tito was the 1st passenger to pay for his own ticket up to the international space station back in 2001, the american entrepreneur joined the crew of the i ss for a week, reportedly splashing out $20000000.00 for the privilege. since then, only a handful of other self paying astronauts have followed him up to the space station . but a space flight grows increasingly, commercial companies and individuals are lining up for a chance to visit the final frontier, front and center. and those activities is axiom space. an american firm that operated the 1st all private mission to the i ss last year. the astronauts from the

2nd mission called a x 2 included to saudi citizens, the 1st from their country to set foot on the station mission specialist try on up . i know it was the 1st woman from saudi arabia to reach space, a historical moment. i'm here not only representing myself, but representing the hopes and dreams of everyone back home, everyone in the region. we are here gathering with different cultures and, and, and with this international agree lab ration, this shows how space brings everyone together. the axiom space even has plans to build the 1st commercial space station with modules that are slated initially to be connected to the i ss. it's habitats my one day. how's the next generation of private space travelers? the company wants to launch the 1st module. as early as late 2025 dw sized sofa got bonnie joins me now for more. let me just pull it out to view is

the significance of this story? first of all as well that the, the x to mission is significant as we've been hearing because of the involvement of saudi crew on both base. but it's also, i think, quite significant because with these axial emissions, we're seeing a migration of form and nasa astronaut. so taking width of a former commander of the international space station in leading the space mission a x 2 to the so the collaboration between axiom and space 6. and if you will mess up, it has an access to as a great saying these things, i'm a previous trip included. michael lopez, alegria, that's x a x one and also a shuttle ask one, they're all moving into the, into the so the private sector. and this is really pulse old growing lose months of

that. so seeing, you know, on the one hand, the commercial sector, on the other hand, the most of luck assigned science oriented public sector as, as it is. but it is a good question. what a space tourism at a, at a price tag of $55000000.00 reportedly, you know, i don't think is really for everyone as a right on up on all we sort of said that this brings everybody together is a bit difficult to see that. yeah, exactly. it sounds like a, a toy, so the rich, so what, what do you need is competition, of course, in a sec to like this to break down prices traditionally economically. but do you think it could ever become space travel could ever become accessible to the general public to people like you and me? it is. yeah. if we live long enough site for a 100 years, at the moment, at the, at the moment is really use of very rich people. but also easy it's, it's part of a great the scheme here. so it's not just axiom, you've got an offer grumman,

a company that was involved in the apollo missions in the sixties and seventies blue origin. so of the, the amazon a windows a same. but also not a rock for 3 of the companies have been lost to a design space stations. but that would be flow independently. it's actually in itself has a contract that it needs to fulfill. so we're hearing this, this, these are these, these are dates of 2025. it needs to fulfill that. but in the next couple of years works, but this is sort of like a, you know, a test field because nasa sees itself is moving more more towards its altima submission, which is moon by east, and then further down the track to, to, to malls. and so, and of course, while the u. s. has said that it will keep the, i assess it a little bit until 2030 it is going to be over the, the international space station. so it will come back down to earth and it will bits and y v. so even if i axiom puts this habitable zone that looks full of nice

and cushioned e and all that, you know, it's a tour. it says it was an inverted commas. you know, the, it's long term future is, is, didn't, and again, 2025 of the best. don't forget the political context, which is russia. russia has say, a great partner in the i assess, the city is not going to be policy of it's building its own a space station, chandra, as well. so we really seeing a, in a sense of fragmentation, but it one have pete things coming together. we'll be able to have a great fragmentation in space. it is quite interesting. does it? cost will come down, but not for a while yet thought it, but i'm sure with private companies now on the scene that's show they go to blow the cobwebs out of the big bureaucratic places like nasa it could do, but you see, but not so still holes that holds the they the, this, this strings as it was even e, so house to the european space agency, you have to tag along, in a sense, um to what nasa says. so just recently we had spain signing up to the ultimate

protocol um or the ultimate as tracy. so it's basically saying this is how the ultimate street size. this is how we want to see space exploration developing. and then it's a company coming use master is controlling that on the one hand from the regulatory stats, the, the, the company's getting more. yes, it's true. more and more companies, especially in, in europe coming in on the same from the u. k. germany is being a bit slow. it is deb. it's a bit slow. oh spain. as i've mentioned in other places, want to have launch sites into space. we've got you know, other companies uh like, uh i forget the name. i see right now i'm blanking, but you know, small real keeps laundry real kids. but also one final point version a little bit just close down. that's the, was tied originally, divergent galactic. so it's that expensive and companies all going out of business . it's not. it's really difficult to make predictions right now a case of like out bonnie, thank you very much. from the w sites on space. tourism is

a big st. making the safe to sustainable agriculture in eco india. i've been puzzling and building, i'll see you next hour with more will use sports and dw, take you by the

you go to india. i have your culture that's in harmony with nature. india embraces new ideas with the traditional method in different regions, farmers are experimenting with old green varieties and natural fertilizers,

avoiding model cultures and focusing on adversity. dw, and an african fishing village tumble in sierra leone have made their living from the fishing for centuries. but now strollers are threatening the coasts. many villages have been forced to abandon their families because they have no future need boats. empty men in 45 minutes on dw, the usually used to reverse asia, researchers and scientists all over the world. for in a race against time,

they are peers and rivals with one daring goals to help smart nature. the more like watching on youtube dw documentary, the degrees avenues and, and then the i started in 1965. and that's when we saw an influx of hires. what i tease productivity boosting best of sites for 2 lies and separately. and now we live in a way where one can argue that the green we eat is all more.
