should not inherit science from us the an income if you look into the nice yesterday thoughts, july 29th on t w. the . this is dw news live from berlin. voting has begun in springs general election. the left when government of prime minister pedro sanchez appears headed for defeat . but conservative rivals meaning far right health. the form of government also coming to greece is headed for as long as heat wave on record. tens of thousands

are evacuated from wild fired, ravage islands of rhodes, while towards the corrections like the crop with space, emergency closures, and rushed to launch a new wave of missiles at ukrainian port, city of adjustment, killing us, a 1000000000, and damaging it's cathedral. the outcomes, hours before the leaders of russia and bella roost, need to discuss the deeper military ties the unintelligible and thanks for joining us. motors in spain, or heading to the polls today in a snap of general election. the could see a significant swing to the right for the country. the conservative opposition people's party has been leading in the polls, but they're likely to fall short of an absolute majority. until recently, the conservatives had promised not to work the far right box party, but now they're expected to need their backing to form a government. opposing them are the socialists and

a new lesson movement called similar symbols have now opened the final results expected by midnight. what ended up being a bit deeper into the stories. i'm now drawing by dw reporter of loud old rece, 3 us so loud on what exactly can we expect from today's elections? so the eyes are on today's results and to see whether it's funny or sign any go for the right or the left block. as a, you're seeing, the polls have been saying in the past weeks that the concert, but the 5 people are, we get the most votes, but they will, might, for short to have enough boats to have a government by themselves. so in this case, they will need the fire right blocks to form a government. if this happens, it would be the 1st time that an openly fire right party gets into power ever seems francisco franco, the detect or died in 1975. these would confirm a trend that we are seeing across the euro, that the far right these need to goldberg and of course they're out of high hopes

among the far right leaders in europe. and for example, dom alone neither pregnant instead of lee has given public support to box the spot right party in spain. so what exactly is driving voters to the far right in spain? are the particular issues that are moving them or is this more a trend? because of a lower voter turnout. so in this location, it's not that this far right part to has more support that it had 4 years ago in 2019 when the last election took place. but probably they will be seen meeker so they will be needed to form a government in this case. the conservative tradition of the park, the by people who are we have to make some concessions towards the right them some of their positions. and this is a party box that these are strongly on to negotiation. they defend traditional values, cathartic values, they are post abortion. they are against, and maria, and a people. they are also

a party that'd be nice. the existence of the climate change and they are strongly, nationally as they or post. the region still has power. they would like spain to be a more centralized on and country. and they go as far as seeing that they would like to run for independence largest like the ones we have and got alone yanine, debowski and country. so these what can happen we have seen in the past weeks, these coalition between the traditional conservatives and the far right going to into power in different regions and cps across paint on among some of the state 1st measures they took is binding rainbow flux from public buildings, so what do you say, what, what can happen now, why exactly did peter sanchez called for the use of elections if there's a chance that he could lose and may actually have to embrace a party, which doesn't actually support his style of politics. this was a very 1st and i downloaded that federal scientists need. he took everybody by surprise. they, they, after she's socially sparky, lost the election,

the local election in may. he sold that his chances would be bigger if he didn't wait until the end of the year. when the election was scheduled to happen, he has been calling last week both there's then since these folders to go through the policies, trying to mobilize them. but strengthening that if the far right gets into power, these would put to spain into a time machine back to obscure times. so he's saying watch out, and he's warning that this can be a state, but for very progressive policies in spain. and also for example, that they would withdrawal pool and policies to protect the environment or for the quality. and we need to take into account that he is regardless as a survivor. austin, when everybody saw that she would be hosted that he wouldn't manage to manage to survive. i'd see it has worked. so this could happen today. again, that's the amount of just the space. right?

so major gamble on the part of the spanish prime minister. all right, well we're going to leave it there. thank you for bringing this down for us. this grease is bracing for as long as he'd waive on record. almost 2 weeks of sizzling temperatures have forced closures of tourist attractions. and evacuations of resorts and forecasts are showing no signs of cooling down. wildfires have stretched firefighting resources the limits. most recently, on the engine island of rhodes, for some 30000 people, were moved to safety on saturday. for thousands of vacationers stay on roads turns into a nightmare. as they are forced to flee a wild fire burning out of control with flames, blocking roads many have to escape on foot to save for places. they receive emergency lodgings and schools, gyms, and even aboard passenger, fairies, coast guard vessels and private ships rescue thousands of people who couldn't reach safety over land. with

temperatures over 40 degrees celsius and strong winds, firefighters have been facing a tough battle. official se could take several more days to contain the blaze. in athens, civic tourist line up for different reasons. a slow march up. the steps of the acropolis during greece has hottest weekend in 50 years. he's good. here's a fan. even though it's already $36.00 degrees by 9 30 am. the line here is longer than usual. visitors are in a hurry to get in before it's closed for the hottest part of the day. getting, you know, water where we can survive. i mean, it's quite a line and, and i'm sure it's going to be worth it at the end. i just threw out and i'm trying to collect myself again and waiting to see this. i wanted to see this my entire

life. i hope i can make it like in many other popular sites across the country, the closures are meant to deal with a brutal heat in roads and other places affected by forest fires. more drastic measures are necessary. as the heat wave comes closer to becoming the longest on record, increase the misery for locals and visitors keeps dragging on. here's a quick look at some other stories making headlines around the world. can buildings have been casting their ballots in the election set to keep prime minister hon send and power? critics have called the pull a quote force of democracy. the main opposition party was banned on a technicality before pulling began 70 year old homes and is a former can be a rouge member who's been ruling since 1985 doctor sees really prime minister

benjamin netanyahu, whose health condition is stable after an overnight operation to implant the hard pace maker, they seem to remain under medical supervision in a hospital. the surgery comes ahead of the thing in parliament on a controversial judicial overall bill. it is but tens of thousands of protesters to the streets. most goes, mayor says at least 4 people have been killed and several others injured after a hot water pipe burst out of shopping center in the russian capital. some of those injured suffered, burns, the rupture led to flooding in the building. russia has launched a new wave of missiles at the cleaning port city vanessa. this came hours before a planned summit between the russian president vladimir putin and his mail of russian alexander location where they are expected to discuss and deepening their military alliance. ukraine's army says one person was killed at nearly 20 others injured in the overnight attacks, including 4 children, a guest as transfiguration, cathedral was badly damaged,

and the raid russia has repeatedly attacked the strategic port city since moscow pulled out of a green export the last week and for more, let's bring in marina might run a military analyst at kings college london and welcome to the program arena. moscow has stepped up, a tax on the assistance of russia, withdrew from the greenville what is must go, attempting to achieve a good morning error. well, on the one hand is a way of russia argues, is it's a retribution for the attack on the courage bridge. and we have to go back a little bit to the very beginning of the conflict. and the idea was last year for russia to gain control of all ukrainian ports and to control access to some black sea. so i think pulling out of the green deal now gives rushes the oppertunity or is the excuse to attack or desktop in warranted to try to isolate,

to crate it and make it land locked. and it has several layers of implications, not least for russian, for us has own green exports and for pilots in the grip on the african countries by russia. after the latest attacks ukraine renewed, it's called for more missile and defense systems from the western allies. do you think you're likely to get them? it is possible that you create and will get more air defense systems. the problem is, however, is what types of missiles will be used by russia on the one hand. the other problem is where those air defense systems will be located because you kind of put them all over to blanket then entire territory of ukraine. and the 3rd problem that we're facing as um, missiles for those systems that also need to be deliver it. and so the rosie is moving parts where it's not sure which countries will be delivering systems and

whether there was enough missiles for ukraine to be delivered at this point in time . so we might see russia exploiting the scale. all right, and given the current russian regression rather than surprise means, the lensky said that ukraine will intensify its attacks and russian targets in the coming days. and we've seen any evidence of that so far as well. we have seen a tax on the munition depot in crimea yesterday, morning or us and night. it is possible that you created with the intensify attacks . however, we have to separate what is political reference from the actual military plans. and i think that the military leadership of ukraine knows not to more than about possible attacks, asked to be able to achieve a strategic surprise. so it remains to be seen what happens. but russia will certainly be on the alert. right. that was 1000000 near and a military and it was

a king's college london. thank you very much for your analysis. thank you for having me. and here in berlin, hundreds of thousands of people have been taking part in the cities, annual pride celebrations. the event is known in germany as christopher street today and draws its name from the location of the theme is doing while riots and event that helps spark the gain liberation movement in the 19 sixty's. now, well, it's one of the biggest street festivals each year in berlin. organizers have made clear that they still view the events here in the city as a political demonstration, and not just the party, the streets of berlin, full of friends, flags, and high stakes fashion. the multitude of dc is celebration with b, that voice and ours that we've political demands, including reducing, hate crime and back to access to health care for the trans community for the phones
