blazes force renewed evacuations in an area that experience summer leaf after 4 days of fires, dw correspondent, and ease of sensors. this report from an area where people are seeing their homes and livelihoods devastated in the hills near the we coastline, we follow the fire brigade to a hotspot, water bombing planes, and helicopters of kept the situation under control until now. the regional commander wants to show us the progress they've made. the when we arrive, the situation has changed. another firefighter tells us the commander can't talk. they have an emergency on their hands. a fire is threatening to spread into a family own summer camp. it's been evacuated, but the owners are still here helping as much as they can spot of these companies from 1953 and say we have a similar issue that i was very young to them in 1995 and we monitor save the savings. then we help the savings. now we're very optimistic, the mornings dollar we are the again,

the very think fontes. they put out a call for help to the fire service to be pack the claims that are approaching the fence. several water bombers managed directed in the fire smolders 3 or 4 times. we've seen the fire simmer down because of the water being dumped from the sky. but then 3 or 4 times the fire re kindled and we've seen them go back out it with poses and even buckets of water. some of the firefighters have been working through the night in the morning and are exhausted. finally, the commander says he can speak to us because the flames are once again dying down as long as they were trying to secure this camp here. and we're doing everything we kind of, i don't, and for now we're monitoring. that's cool. that's good. but then there's a sudden commotion inside the gates. the camp. the fire has spread around the back in just seconds. the hope that prevailed has turned to panic. a wall of flames is coming in on

a new front where they weren't prepare the . the heat is palpable and so was the sense of danger. the owners look on in disbelief and then make a last attempt to save the tents that welcome summer campers for generations then, just like that, it's all over the fire barrels down the 3rd side of the property, moving a 100 meters and 10 or 20 seconds. the campus all but surrounded with only one way out. back to the parking lot as fast as possible. so it looks like they've lost control of the fire here. they're asking everybody to

evacuate immediately. the family that braved the wildfires all morning has lost the flights and grief sets in front of the we couldn't do anything. it went up to us and it means us, i don't want to visit boston because again, i'm certain about this. it was all here. 20 minutes ago and now and believably, it's gone. but everyone survived in with them the blueprints for how to rebuild that report. but the, the use, i mean, is, is catch up on some other stories making headlines today. there been further demonstration since his real against plans to overhaul the legal system. in tel aviv protesters blocked to major highways 2 and please try to disperse them with

water cannon. the government claims the reforms will strengthen democracy. but opponents fear they would turn israel into a dictatorship. britton's really in conservative party, has lost 2 out of 3 special elections in a single day, mid angry over scandals and the cost of living crisis. prime minister issue not to party sol to major to huge majorities wiped out by the opposition. but it naturally held on to ex prime minister boris johnson's london constituency. scales of the war, a new crane and chief has responded inclined to a russian threat to treat ships bound for ukraine as potential enemy targets. keith says it will also consider vessels traveling to russian ports or russian occupied ukrainian territory to be potentially carrying farms. votes developments follow a decision by the kremlin earlier this week to end

a deal that allowed grain to be exported through the black sea. the un security council will meet on friday to address the humanitarian consequences of russia's withdrawal from the agreement. let's. let's get more now from the w corresponding economy. he joins us from keep nick, both sides are now making threats to attack ships. is the black sea evolving into another battle ground in this war? i think it certainly is. has to be said that back see has what do you see? it's the share of minute traction. remember the flagship of the russian black c fleets must go out, was sunk by the craniums. last year we've seen all those repeated ukrainian attempts to destroy the crime in bridge. but now this, these threats against commercial shipping really imposes totally different economic price. and i think the interesting thing and all of this is how surprised the russian side was, the ukraine was basically followed the russian threat with it. so when you're

looking at the kind of russian state media, they just really didn't know how to report on this. there was some kind of sense of incredulity that ukraine was going to opt in to the same way that russia have. i don't think we ukraine perspective, what's kind of useful about this is here. we have to do anything to already impose a significant economic price. we're going to see insurance companies probably most likely, refusing to ensure ships heading to russian fort. so gonna see maybe ship owners from other countries thinking twice about whether it's worth sending the ships towards russian ports. you don't have to even send any ukrainian warships to drones, protect anything. and also the question of naval mines that even without any intent, usually travel quite a lot of distance off for a while. so you can create a kind of perception of safety being gone of danger. and that already means that russia has to face, i think costs and think about defending shipping in a way that it just the result really only even though because since quitting the grand deal earlier this week, moscow has repeatedly launched missile strikes on you,

cranes to biggest port cities, odessa and nickel live un secretary general antonio guitars condemn these attacks last night. here is what gutierrez's spokesman had say. the secretary general also recalls that the destruction of civilian infrastructure may constitute violations of international humanitarian law. these attacks are having an impact well beyond ukraine. we're already seeing the negative impact on global weight and form prices, which hurts everyone, but especially vulnerable people in the global south. nick is anything being done right now to revive the grain deal and prevent the effects that the you and this morning about what we'd heard from the inputs in just before this greenville was allowed to expire. you kind of research, it rushes them on. some of that was about western sanctions against russian banks,

things about spat, thoughts for rushes, agricultural sector, things that just weren't possible anymore because of western sanctions. i think for now there's not really a sense, but if this is going to somehow be restored any time soon a week range like this in the sense that even the most good way to get what it 2 months then it'll come up with some kind of new to mon pretty soon and just and consistently use this grain deal as a way to pressure the west to make concessions. ukraine for its part is trying to come up with alternatives. they have said that they are willing to take risks. and so think about maybe i'm trying to coordinate some kind of protection for the ships coming into print reports may be seen to a key send military ships to a school those a tank has those ships coming in and out whether or not took he's willing take that risk and they to members of different questions. and then there is also the alternative of trying to find groups that don't require that north western portion of the black sea where rushes made those threats try to send grain out by land roots by rail. that is obviously

a lot more costly and the capacities are limited. i think there is a real sense that ukraine is going to try and send out a lot more grain than it was able to last year before those bullets reopened. nick, thank you very much. our correspondent nick connelly there in key. it's due south africa now where authorities are trying to find out what caused a massive explosion in the central business district of johannesburg. on wednesday, one person was confirmed dead and dozens of people were injured. the public had been warrant to avoid the area its rush hour and central johanna is beg, mini bus taxi's line. this busy street, and no one is prepared to what's about to happen. cctv footage. so i literally capturing the moments as the road is ripped to pods by the force of an explosion. this panic is people run for cover. and those costs

inside vehicles try to escape video show to the aftermath. so it's a scene of devastation. there's confusion about what's just happened. well thought i'd like to saying this, an a be a covering, an estimated 5 city blocks has been damaged with dozens induced and at least one person found the the, the emergency operation going into the nights space. growing that it could happen again, the nearby speed this to me. i'm very soft and i'm no sir i'm i'm signal may be somewhere where it is in house tones. well, i know that i said, yeah,

most of these are still trying to work out what caused the blast. a gas leak initially being blaine's with witnesses reporting chemical load is an escaping vapors. following the incidents, officials helpful in the public to stay away from the area is investigations continue with the sites. cerebral in police are stuffing up their search for what's thought to be a lion on the lose. more than $200.00 police officers are taking part in the operation after a local resident caught the big cat on the film in a wooded area in the south western suburbs. a short video which caused a huge up real, a big cat closer and kind of apparently attacking a wild bull and a sub just outside of berlin. police of ma'am, to the mess of sets off a ration of the area. even bringing in vets and hunters in an attempt to capture the way which feed on

a lot of sorted to taking the search and seriously they're wanting residents to be a lot in pets and children in those the med tried to a life is but some talking cheek too much on venice, interface expect to get this is sunny case. there are people making shows find the i know it's our new way of something. bob balls to use line. this is the because we're still trying to do it the regular way going to that and i would not setting up a center and get to talk to solve the waterfall problem with that fixed by and put it is a serious situation in august. no cause in the area they aren't taking any chances . they are uncomfortable. usually 2 little ducks on that's probably i do a line food job. i've tried like i just have some missing bought. i have to be honest. i'm a product to this because it's a different caliber compared to a normal dog or another pet that has run away. so i'm going to run home now i'm going to bring home open this time in. and while the search continues, speculation mounts about where exactly the line has came from,

like the opinions is says, no animals are missing, and the local surface size is not last age. jesus to yourself got there is no way that this animal escaped from a circus. it's because apart from circus krona, there was no one with wild animals on the road in germany at the moment. imaginative want to go on the beach. experts say if anyone encounters the linus to stand still. but while you're watching dw news from berlin, i'm terry martin. we've got business for you next. chris kolber will be here. thanks for watching the the, the stay up to date. don't miss our highlights. the t w program online. the w. com highlights the
