vials. this is not even the worst of it. still get the bodies in the water floating and on the sea. well, they've been sitting there since last night. we've been pulling people out since last night trying to save people's lives. and i feel like we're not doing the help . we need us president joe biden has said that hawaii will get everything it needs when the blazes broke out, much of hawaii was under a red flag. fire risk warning. what exactly, stocks into fires is out so you have to know, but the conditions, right. a confluence of extremes, severe drought, power constraints, wins, amplified by climate change as lead to catastrophe saving base. and here is a professor at the department of atmospheric sciences at the university of hawaii. we ultimately a how these fires go so out of control to well, this was a perfect storm really because we had very strong high pressure to the north of the

hawaiian islands that became synchronized with the passage of a very strong tropical storm. dora hurricane dora, who was a category for hurricane wells of the south of hawaii, but it produces very strong when the search that came across the west smiling mountains and the west valley mountains, in turn accelerated those wing winds further and especially at night. and that's what caught people off guard is that this firestorm occurred when people were you know, sleeping or taken unawares. so it was a perfect storm. gemini is government is reportedly open to sending german made taurus cruise missiles to ukraine. now that is according to information obtained by the news magazine dash b to and you have in defense ministry is reportedly in talks with the ornaments industry over the feasibility of sending stokes. now,

taurus as an add to ground cruise missile, with a range of about 500 kilometers, it is designed for high position strikes against highly protected targets. keith is being requesting deliveries of tourist missiles for months to aid it's counter offensive against russian forces. but chance the folks has so far been opposed to sending long range weapons to ukraine. i also political correspondent, judas, out at least to know on these tools set to be underway now between the defense ministry and germany's ons produces are. now one thing we have to point out is that we have had no official confirmation from the german government that these talks are ongoing. but we see different media reports mentioning them, and they say that in fact the german government is talking with the manufacturer of the taurus and missiles to possibly deliver them to ukraine. these are air launch, cruise missiles,

meaning that they are launch from an aircraft towards the ground. and at the moment they wouldn't be compatible with you korean aircraft, meaning that also germany would not be supplying aircraft to ukraine. just the missiles and these are missiles that have a range, as we've heard of up to 500 kilometers. and that is important because according to the reports, the german government has requested from the manufacturer that they apply a technical modification to the missiles, meaning that they cannot reach a range of up to 500 kilometers. it will limit to the range of the missiles. so that they will not be able to reach russian territory and industry experts have said that these modifications are possible, but that they would take some time. and the reports also states that the german chancellor, all of shots uh, wants to wait until it is confirmed that these modifications can be applied before he officially announced. isn't confirms that germany will supply the tourist

missiles to ukraine. okay. we know that kia has been asking for these missiles for a long time. germany has been reluctant to meet ukraine's demands. again, as you say, this hasn't been confirmed yet, but what, what potentially change here as well, the important points are exactly these 500 kilometers of range and the possible modifications that can be applied to these missiles at all of shots and whose party the social democrats have been hesitant, we've seen over the last year in terms of surprise supply new and more powerful weapons to ukraine because they are afraid to be seen as being directly involved in the war and ukraine. and they don't want to see german weapons involved in the tax against russia. and it seems like possibly this modifications to the missiles has convinced all of shows that it is possible to deliver the tarus missiles to ukraine w's political correspondent, julia. sadly,

thanks so much the update. okay, let's take a look now. some of the other stories making headlines around the world. no thirty's in moscow have cordoned off the park where they say they successfully intercepted ukrainian drone. the defense ministry says the drone crossed officer, it was electronically jammed, and disabled. it's the latest of several apparent ukrainian drain attacks on russia this week. and ukraine says a russian miss. silas struck a hotel used by the un in jeffery, just killing at least one person. this is the 2nd, the task on the southern se, se in recent days, it's about 50 columbus is from europe's biggest nuclear power plant. the full most south african president, jacob zoom has reported to prison and needs to be swiftly released again under a new program to avoid over crowding and jails. summa was sentenced to 15 months in prison 2 years ago for refusing to face questioning of

a corruption of cronyism allegations. his imprisonment spot riots that left hundreds did. the and the african union has said that it backs the decision by the west african ecos block to deploy a stand by force and response to the needs yet crisis. you can watch the leaders say they want to explore every means for a peaceful resolution to the military, cuz the message is clear. if new jersey military rule is, do not reinstate the countries democratically elected president new jersey, i could find itself on a collision course with a snape as we stand for can lead as arrived in a boucher to move in next. move it urgent. amazing. came up to me, she is going to ignore the ultimatum to stand down from the power grab principles. the group says, all diplomatic a fits to result, the crisis has been rejected by the military leaders. now they are ramping up the

pressure to restore democracy, issuing this directive, that the committee of the chief of defense stuff, to activate the aqua stand by force, with all its elements immediately order the deployment of the equity fund by force to restore constitutional order. in the republic of new shit, but it still isn't clear what that will look like for the standby, for most likely to take weeks if not longer to assemble the block and so reiterated its commitment to finding a peaceful resolution earlier the one to talk to a national tv to announce a new government with me, she is deposed. presidents mohammed bosom still, and the house erased. concerns of growing about his well being. we're aware of recent reports that president obama, the zoom of new chair and his family are living without electricity, water, food,

or medicine. and i can see the following. as the secretary general is very concerned, over the deplorable living conditions that president presume and his family are reported to be living under as they continue to be arbitrarily detained by members of the presidential guard in new share. as the political did, law continues the people of media, a wary of what comes next. really after the who did the, our country really leaving the bug situation. why i see a bus situation? because do that, if you look everywhere, we can see everywhere there's lights up lights of lights. so i think it's going to be taught to use it 40 to should i mean, interview not ministry interview. tough sanctions on media and maintenance, struggling with rolling powered caps and supply chain disruptions, creating food and susan tea for residents awaiting the next move in the countries future. smith, as

a member of the german parliament from trump select show it says social democratic policy, where he sits on the defense committee. i also maria, how the new jack, who is affecting germany's longstanding ties to the celebration but inc, we have, we have 50 for between the short term impacts and the long term impacts of cause and the show to him. and, and we have 1st of all the safety of also, which is another citizens within the reach and to keep that in mind. but of course with the european union public mission that can be no partnering mission without a pop. and our problem is the electric government of new share, and therefore we have to stop as we do the european union partnering missions, but on the long term. and there are some goals we have to achieve. we have to rethink our solid strategy, i think. and we have to get much more intelligence information with within the

countries we engage. we know that germany as long have significant strategic interests in new share. that this could really take the german government by complete surprise. yes, i think we were taken by surprise. this is my impression we were completely taken by surprise. we always thought new service, our stability of pop steps will probably within the region. and therefore, i just told you we have to get much more even intelligence information out of the countries. we engage portfolio our pub in the nation's very surprise taken by surprise also. so this is not a problem. i guess you are a rough. what's the so the human looks, the partnership mission in media which supports piece building efforts and has been working to enhance need his ami. you've suggested that the crew has threatened this partnership. if this is the case, what will the consequences be for the region?

well, i'm not too sure about that actually, because i think, as i said, in order to have a problem with emissions, you need to have a partner and do your opinion. your union was invited by the elected government of new save. and now this government is not in charge anymore, and i do not see any, any possibility to work together with the military, sometimes for strengthening their military efforts in order to, to fight against service. but this will be stabilized to reach and b as in some ways caught in a dilemma. okay, so just to be clear as the democratically elected lead to is not return to power, then the can be no more cooperation between germany, india or i do not see any, any corporation on the, on the military side, on a police side or even within development assistance with abilities on top of costs,

dependents hiring a can go wrong in, in some way, but i do not see any form of cooperation within this is risk based on military. so . okay, and i wanted to talk to you about the issues migration these areas on the main migration routes towards europe, considering these as role in migration control. how might this coo now affect europe's and germany's migration policies? but once again, we do not know what, what comes next. i think the actual signal is a very strong signal, but maybe it even gets worse. so um, even this isn't if this does not automatically need somebody to try the information, we have to admit that there might be some might be a lot of fear within the reach. and that might, even the national, within the chance to make ration might stop again. and the role of new share within the, on the trans national roots is quite to you. so there may be a change, but you know, we do not see any change yet, but there might be

a change also. so we have to reach think about our commitment within the reach and then look for other problems. of course. all right, kristof schmidt, member of the german government and the defense committee. thank you so much for your time and for speaking to us and dw today. thanks for the invitation. now the story of a suspect, it's by working for russia in the german military, has raised serious concerns here in germany. the suspect had access through his work too sensitive details about weapon systems. he was arrested on wednesday in what germany's defense minister bars. the story is claiming to be a success for gem and intelligence. a suspected spot in the ranks of the german. i'm forces working for russia. the story has sounded alarm bells. the man arrested is thomas h, an employee of the display of procurement office,

which handles sensitive details about weapon systems. he allegedly attempted to offer himself as an informant for russia. such allegations a rap, says jim, and just as minister mock of bush mount revived. these are far, it is to this case is extremely exceptional, but we cannot turn a blind died to such cases. we must be vigilant box on design. 2 of acres, in general, we're grateful for the enormous loyalty and exemplary performance of the members of the buddhist span. to the sauce banks, initial email contact with russian diplomats was immediately flag bios doherty's, according to the spiegel, its believes he intended sensitive information to be handed to russian intelligence that could include details of elements, projects, technical information about weapon systems like f $35.00, find to objects which the gym and air force is ordered from the us would certainly be of interest. russian military intelligence. russia has repeatedly focused its

espionage activity on germany, one of ukraine's major on suppliers. last year, a cd, a foreign intelligence official, was detained for leaking details to moscow about the system monitoring russian military tactics on the battle front and ukraine. opposition. politicians want to more public push back against new king. by the kremlin, we have to be much could euro, and i expect from our government, much more outspoken statements that russia is leading a hybrid war against the german society against suicide to cohesion. and trying to pull out our willingness to support ukraine and also our willingness to stop this war in time. so that we contain russia. thomas age now faces investigation by both military counter intelligence and the domestic intelligence surveys. while his arrest is a success of those task,

with preventing for an espionage questions will be honest about both russia's objectives and the motives of those few. in germany's military, they want to give sensitive secrets to moscow. russia has launched it's us newton mission in on those 50 is the luna $25.00 mission will study the lunar surface and search for results is such as was that russia is aiming to be the 1st country to successfully land at the moon's south pole is competing for that distinction with india, which some of which it's only to mention last month, the c w sides for forces also are a bond, a tells me more about what's going to determine the success of this russian mission . well, there are a number of factors that will make this a russian blue and a 25 mission to success. so the 1st they've got to get to the moon is going to take a couple of days, 3 to 4 days, and they have to find that spot. they want to land around

a place called the boldest love crates of the south poles. and nobody's ever done it's, it's incredibly difficult to land bet that's a in a soft landing, which means not a hard landing, which means no crashing. but they want to investigate that pounds of, of the moon to find more evidence of water and the soils. and then they have to send that the data from those experiments back. so that's really what it's going to take. but i mean, you know, we often talk about why is it that we were able to get to the moon in the sixties and seventies? why is it so difficult now? well, it's quite simple. obviously the technology has changed, but the moon has it is still incredibly dangerous place as a one outlet describing it as a human death drive. just the other day. i'm. i'm not sure what it comes down to is, is based the park in the sixties and seventies. we didn't really have a good cross to the risks we knew is risk of it. not how risky and then we'd love to deal with the risk. but like doing that, we've added complexity and so the mix into our solutions as create to these

incredibly complex situations. and that's what is really in spite case. so there's a lot riding on. it's not just the case of going there and having a look around a lot can still go wrong for this mission buena, 25. now india recently sent its own space craft on a similar mission. so it would probably be true to say, wouldn't it, that we're seeing an element of competition in is definitely an element of the compensation that we've had so many times with the vid, tundra on missions. israel of the tried and filed japan is tried and filed, but of course, japan's also trying to get to the moon. there are all sorts of competitive elements here. i'm, i'm was saying, i mean, really sweet. well, so that i should mention, china is landing on the, the side of the fall side. what we call colloquially the dock side of the moon. i'm in a sense, this is the only thing but russia can do. it's in a case of old school one upmanship in a sense. nobody's landed a self tell one of the move. well,

we're going to be the 1st. so if you can make that speak, so the competitiveness and it also speaks to the very same competitiveness that we sold during the cold war. i mean, the fact that it's going to be the $25.00 and the 20 full was the last mission to the moon. in 1976 during the cold war, i mean that speaks volumes, they really all try to run pump, that same old competition. so most definitely a competition across the board here that includes the us and europe and other players as well. so thanks so much, that's the w science correspondent. so if the cut up on the, to the football weld comp now with sweden have shocks the favorites japan, they beat them to one to palla into the semi finals. how many holes i knocked out title hold is the us and the last round sweden now say spain and the law for that progression means that the trophy will have a 1st time when

a vis you of sweden, if in the queens of the st face of this tournament, and yet again, they close habit can depend bucks through a free kick. and it is get skilled a feel for the work of the sofa. despite the defend aconia for sweden and japan again couldn't deal with it. the scandinavians appealed for a humble and the 3 went to check them all on to. it was given a video review. and philip, under the did the rest to pam rule. so what it is, we do a split the 1st class as soon as a bad day for the 2011, when as soon as the frame of the go with they did. finally, monday's a goal for her norco, i see, but it was too late. sweeten mot song. all

right, let's cross straight to dw sports correspondent, only moody who was at that game in oakland. only this woke up just keeps giving us surprises. does not as well. that's right. the theme of the tournaments i saw out japan had become the neutrals favored with the exciting style of play and the goal happy performances. but today they run into a yellow and blue brick wall. sweden played this game to affection. they would too well organized that accounts for a tax and sub depends so well off until now at this tournament, they would to physical to let japan play through them. and they were happy as well more than happy. in fact, to go through by scoring scrappy goals. japan do does have some credit, i think from bouncing a light flight back button. they're passing, right? all was awful nights. the precision that they've had throughout this tournament and attack just filed them at the last moments. and ultimately,

what it came down to was that japan missed that penalty and sweden school days. so from the way that you were describing sweden's form at the moment, you know, all day genuine content is of the, well, let's not forget that sweden are, in fact, the top rank side left in this tournament, off to the usaa and germany went south and they have in fact knocked out full mate champions in each of a last 2 games. now japan having won it back in 2011 and of course the reigning champions. the us side in the previous round at the gold keep is a cheer. and most of it is, is playing in fine form at the moment, a few more big sites from hats and nights. and they've got a real strength. we've set pieces as we had in the reports and amanda in us. that's the sense about scoring again today that was her full goal of the tournament. and i think that really shows just how strong sweden from those set pieces of that might

be effective rather than beautiful to watch. but look, it's often the pragmatic teams that when these tournaments, uh, but overall, i think this has been an incredibly open wells comp and i think every seemed less then it will feel like they are in with a genuine chance of taking the size of the so looking forward to sweeten versus spain in the, in the 1st 70 sign onto the best thing on well the spine, look, they've been playing very, very well, especially in attack lately. if you look at places like jenny and also, and i sign up on my face when they're in find form when it clicks, they really can be irresistible. but look, we've been saying the same thing about japan as well. up until now and here in oakland they crashed into the movable objects and as i said, it is often the effective themes rather than the aesthetically pleasing themes that when i think i would go with sweden at this point, but that look, a lot can change in the next few days before you back here at 8 o'clock in oakland

for the semi final. all right. only moody in oakland. thank you so much. so that will remind you of what you just said. and that is all we have time for coming up next, a documentary looking at what several years of drought has done to a remain in lake searching so that if you can i'm money keeps mckenneth. thanks for watching of facing

and villages locals for you as well. the livelihoods and the moms controls toll. but is it too late? droughts in roommate, a d. w. younger, indigenous woman went missing and and many of us were forced to search for her. we didn't want to waste time convincing law enforcement that we are assuming one faithful story among many indigenous women in the us. rates and listening with the trees bring in 35 minutes, dw, the committed cooling is great for investing the invest. these are the everyone here
