12:06 pm
the government has sent very little help and she's disappointed. the government, on the other hand says it's stretched very thin. these are terrible. wildfire is burning all across the country, and they of course have to allocate their resources no matter who's at fault here though. the truth is that a lot of homeowners and property owners face a conundrum, either lose their property because the greek government doesn't have the resources to save it or lose their lives, trying to save their own property. now we saw a family there who lost their property, but thankfully nobody lost their lives in greece has activated the so called e u civil protection mechanism, who has come to the rescue and are there now enough firefighters to get the situation under control. this this mechanism is very important because wildfire strikes, countries and regions in, during dry seasons and seed waves with such overwhelming force that you've been
12:07 pm
a country is well equipped as greece well trained firefighters. quite a lot of equipment. they have here to fight fires. they just can't handle the size and scale of itself. countries like you, countries like poland, romanian slovakia. i've already sent boots on the ground firefighters who are fighting alongside greek firefighters. edaly and france have sent water bombing planes that you can see in the sky all around here. those are extremely important, a very good tool for fighting these giant wild fires. and that mechanism is definitely come to effect here. it's important to note that greece and when it doesn't need the help, also sends its own firefighters to other countries, like italy and spain, which are also very greatly affected by wildfire as. but right now, greece is the one and is one of the countries in desperate need. this sheet is just continuing. we're expecting a temperature as high as 42 degrees celsius. it's a 108 degrees on the weekend. there's fire is burning just south west of here. this is still one of the largest fires in greece just on this hill over here. that's one
12:08 pm
of the largest fires in greece right now. we've all seen fires on the greek island of rhodes, so really stretched been the resources and the, the prime minister and mits of talk. you said the country remains on high alert as long as the weather doesn't change. and it doesn't seem like it's going to do so for the foreseeable future. and that is our corresponded a mean ease of many thanks for that update. to the warn ukraine. now we're actually has carried out target practice in live fire exercises on the black sea. the russian ministry of defense released this footage of the drills that claim to show and to ship cruise missiles targeting mach enemy ships. this comes a day after both moscow and keith traded threats to target any ships headed to the others. ports. they say they will consider any such ships to be potentially carrying weapons. earlier this week, the kremlin ended a deal that allowed green to be exported through the black sea. the un security
12:09 pm
council will meet on friday to discuss the humanitarian, the impact of this decision. let's get the reaction from keith with a dw the correspondent and it connelly. nick, do these why fire exercises, res, worries and ukraine? i think they were expected to these exercises such and nothing too unusual. bodies broke into about these exercises. if the locations in the north western sector vaccine just off the coast of you transport, this is odessa. and this is basically russia making serious, trying to make clear if it needed to, to any commercial ship as who might be thinking about trying to reach you, bringing ports through some kind of alternative arrangement. there's been talk maybe to ships, protecting convoys of commercial shipping into ukrainian ports that they are willing to detain, or maybe even attack any shipping in this part of the black sea. so this is, russia was get up and guarantee it was expected. but i think it really makes it
12:10 pm
increasingly impossible for any commercial shippers who have to think about insurance about the safety that cruise to somehow find some kind of way it's getting to it. so i think for now ukraine is going to have to look at those alternative routes by land or through uh through the daniel nick. both sides have now made threats to attack ships. is the black sea evolving into another theatre of war. and this complex i think on the one hand, it's important to stress that this is 1st time we've seen the confrontation between the war between russia and ukraine happening on the black sea ukraine. so the flagship of rushes, black sea feet last year, the most go, we've seen those drone attacks are basically against the crime in bridge and even puts on rushes black sea coast. i think what is happening is this is turning into an economic pool. whereas russia has basically blockaded ukraine's boats full. this will. now ukraine is striking back and try to impose the costs of russia to make versus think twice about continuing with this located. and most of us has grain most of versus oil. these exports, by the vaccine said russia have

12:12 pm
after a local resident called the big cat on film in a wooded area in the south western suburbs in spain is the final day of campaigning ahead of sunday's general election. that could see the far right box party emerges. king makers the center ride opposition. people's party are meeting in the polls, but they're set to fall short of an absolute majority. until recently, the conservatives had promised not to work with the box, but now they will likely need their backing to form the government. in the eastern region of valencia, the 2 parties are already in coalition w's. john phillips schultz sent this look at what could soon be in store for the rest of spain as well. women have come to valencia's regional government buildings prompted by fury at radical right wing box politicians forming part of the government. the party denies the
12:13 pm
existence of gender based violence and wants to ban the phrase from valencia's official communications. i mean, an example, of course violence against women exist. you just have to look at the statistics one . how many women have been murdered this year? by the i understand it's already more than 50 and we're only halfway through the years. i somebody, i mean the she and the others, the danger, not only for valencia, but for the whole country. they worry that national conservatives could form a coalition with fox to following the regional politicians here regional premier carlos my zone doesn't want to talk to journalists and fox representatives at all levels to ignore how requests for interviews inside. we asked, depends on why he's made this coalition. later later he says disappeared. while additions from box don't even pretend to want to talk. this is their press chief energy on this. let me say,
12:14 pm
i know you're not filming this report. you. this is the model for the whole of spain. now the parliamentary sitting is the 1st one here for the new coalition. afterwards we find a conservative politician who will talk to us. he's from madrid. you haven't got him just as occasion policy, which is so important in trying to prevent violence against women is in our hands. it will do that. social policy and security policy to protect victims of this violence is also ours. there's no reason to worry. even holiday makers here know about the political machinations going on in valencia and how they might influence the national picture. it's totally insane. the worst thing that happened to this country, it gives me a bit of hope. the model here in valencia would certainly be a good solution for the whole country after the election on july 23rd. i
12:15 pm
want you to scrap the abortion long. they want to get rid of the youth nation law. they say that violence against women doesn't exist. it all makes me very scared. the fear of the radical right must be turned into anger. says active is common probably. you know, if the valencia model is reproduced in madrid after the election, she says she and the others here will go there to protest. for more on the spanish election. let's welcome journalist daniel best diego for to the program. he is the director of the spanish online news outlet info libra. daniel, how tight is the race right now as well? it is the time to thanks. a lot of the, uh, the guys have a piece of paper is when um, when i say the 70 s, they use uh, we bought it. i mean, people which he goes to see the use, the su in germany for instance, the big screen, right?

12:17 pm
just say, oh we see the complete the you know, the regions as well. that's a new part of this. he may just a few weeks ago a, c i o. d, no. when he bought a piece. so what day do we need? we drawing. edu slash from the lease on the raise your funding waste. and finally the fights virus. and we didn't, we know the program, the money festival loss which ease uh us. which is the best way to go. movements in these, what are the movements they want to for beach? these titles would become part of the migration. so the bulk is key and we will be new. bo says the people's apartment has the tennis,
12:18 pm
the floor with the face to box. we could see, i think, i've already been staying a fairly for this baby from, from the. got it. that is a journalist daniel, best seal, thanks for your insights. thanks. your watching dw news still is to come. sidney opened a new hotel for some tiny maritime gets. stay tuned to find out why the, at the women's world cup spain have won their 1st match, beating costa rica, 3 mill in wellington new zealand. the pick of their 3 goals was the 2nd squared by a ton of on the 2 feet, carved out the smallest of spaces in the penalty box and followed it up with a fantastic finish. speed scored a 3rd and had a penalty seeing is old. in the 1st half,
12:19 pm
the wind puts them on top of the sea. i also there at the women's world cup canada missed an opportunity to join australia at the top. it would be with nigeria holding them to a goal, a strong in melbourne. canada had the best chance of the man, but christine seemed clearer, saw her 2nd half pendleton same nigeria. gabriel was then sent off in injury time after video. the nigerians were far happier with the result which leaves both teams to points behind australia. after one day the w corresponded tom good boy was in melbourne to give us an overview of where that leaves go be. and he also caught up with nigeria school keeping hair one hosted as tournaments 1st, 2 games last night in oakland and sydney ended with one new wings for the host
12:20 pm
teams in melbourne, leaving nigeria new canada were able to break the deadlock and decide this game in that ultimately it's nigeria who will be happier with the point of that it was kind of who had the better of the chauncey's, but the even pick champions. ricky would go school records theme. sinclair was unable to conduct a spot peak and secure her side a victory. just a moment ago we spoke to the woman who said penalty, i'm rescued a point for nigeria. i only played against her last day. i never watched anything even, but i wanted to give the print out to you. i was like, oh, i should go starting. so i just, i just thought myself, go go, you can do the same. i did it so it wasn't the result we wanted. but then we're grateful for this opportunity and i believe we will keep working hard. we're not going to relax and keep working hard on to, to get it to get this game right. for more on the days action, i'm joined by daniel barcelona. from dw sports, donnie, it's good to see you. let's start in wellington with that spring game. how impressive, where's their performance?
12:21 pm
i mean, span is a very impressive side, and this was a very dominant performance from spain, which is good because we've seen a lot of the top sides kind of not be at their best in norway, in canada, even australia, they didn't look like they were, their best that they could be and it's good because spanish, one of those teams that were coming into the tournament with a lot of noise off pitch. and we didn't see that today. i mean, spain is technically one of the most gifted sides in this tournament. a lot of their players come from real madrid and barcelona barcelona, of course, is one of the absolute best teams, if not the best team in women's football at the moment. and it's amazing because for example, i was playing in spain when they really started their development of women's football. they focused on possession based systems and, and technical skill. and you really see that paying off today, which is amazing. so if they can keep the focus on the field, it will be a very tough team to play against the role in melbourne. there was that disappointing draw for your homeland canada against nigeria, which happens to be my original homeland talk us through that one. okay,
12:22 pm
so canada will definitely be disappointed with this result. of course, they are the reigning olympic champion, so there was a lot of expectations on this side. but they do know nigeria very well. they lead, they played against them twice in the lead, up to the world cups, the tide and the one. now they knew that nigeria was a skilled team and they were going to be very physical, very good in the counter attack. they will feel like they were denied a little bit because captain and legend christine sinclair, she didn't miss a penalty shot on that actually would have made her the 1st player just put in 6 world cubs. i can see the payment. i know they did, but i, when they do you agree with the but canada definitely is going to have to regroup because they are in the group of that night area island, australia. they're gonna need something a lot more than that if they want to progress, because all of that seems a good candidate squad is one of the few that has seen some sort of off pitch
12:23 pm
issues. what are the, what's behind the players dispute here? i mean, this is really unfortunately, unfortunate. so 9, that least of the women's teams coming into this tournament have been involved in all still disputes. and canada, for example, right now is at odds with the federation over a lack of transparency regarding money, a lack of budget for the women's team. i mean leading up to the world cup the biggest tournament for women's football. they had to cut friendly matches, can't they? weren't able to bring as many players into cans as they would have liked to bring. and as a player, when you're playing on a, on a scale that big in the world cuts, confidence plays a big factor and a big place where you get your confidence from his preparation. so if you're not able to prepare with friendlies with can't having a lot of competition with players coming in, then you go into a tournament missing a little bit of some of something. and when you're in a group as hard as canada is, for example, that can have a big effect. i mean, also nigeria is one of those teams that had also disputes regarding payments,
12:24 pm
spain, of course, as well. we didn't see that effects being so much of this game, but we don't know when forward it's, it's just too bad that in a tournament like this, we have the small issues that are affecting the players ability to concentrate on what's happening on the pitch. i have the impression you're really watching this world cup very closely. that's dw, use a daniel barcelona from our sports unit manufacture. thank you. and finally, a new hotel is opening its doors in sydney, australia, but don't try booking a room. it's an under water hotel for endangered seahorses conservationists or hoping that the new maritime structure that's located in safety harbor will help boost the dwindling population of whites seahorses a jonathan below the surface and sydney's have uh these gifts of being escorted to the new a caustic accommodation, a long way from the cities high rises. these are some food seahorse,
12:25 pm
hotels. a much needed habitat for the coupons. yes, so the hotels are made out of metal, but over time they accumulate with the natural marine by failing. so the metal will eventually crowed away and essentially they'll leave behind a small semi natural rate. and this will allow the sea horses so inhabited into the future. the whites seahorse is endemic to australia as east coast, and was classified as endangered in 2017 due to a loss of habitat. the hotels mimic old crab traps that think horses often live in . they were installed weeks before the sequels arrived, to an out mg and sponge is to build up on that. now more than $350.00 new due to family loose with hopes they will lose the wild population. is the 1st race is to be classified as endangered in australia. and this is largely due to human impacts
12:26 pm
including the effects that we have on their habits that we think dramatic population losses, which means that we need to now in order to help these ties to shift into the future. similar conservation projects that will reduce showing promising results a 2020 release found one system of the seahorses remained in the hotels. scientists will continue the monitoring over the next 12 months. local dive is, are encouraged to keep an eye on them to and share any photos they might snap often use. and a reminder of the top stories were following this. our firefighters in greece struggling to contain fires to the west of athens for a 5th day. they are bracing for temperatures to sore again over the weekend. in the re capitol authorities have shut the acropolis of taurus during peak hours. russia says it has carried out target practice in life fire exercises on the black sea.
