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 fire storm occurred when people were you know, sleeping or taken unawares. so it was a perfect storm. germany's 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 because the german defense ministry is reported late in talks with the ornaments industry over the feasibility of sending stokes not for us as an add to ground crews messiah with a range of about 500 kilometers it's designs, the high precision that strikes against highly protected targets. steve has been requesting deliveries of tourist ms solves a month to aid it's counter offensive against russian forces. but the german trunk . flo will f shots has so fob being opposed to sending long range weapons to try. and i also political correspondent, judy is so deadly for more on these talk set to be under way. now between the defense ministry and german, these arms produces. now one thing we have to point out is that we have had no official confirmation from the german government that these talks are on going. but we've seen 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, uh, 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 would 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 of these 500 kilometers of range and the possible modifications that can be applied to these missiles at all of shots and his 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 attacks 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. each of these political correspondent, julia, sadly, thanks so much the update. uh okay, lets take a look now. some of the other stories making headlines around the world and authorities in moscow has quoted delta park where they say they successfully intercepted a ukrainian during the defense ministry says the drone craft officer, it was electronically jammed, and disabled as the latest of several of her and the apparent ukrainian drug and tax on russia this week. and ukraine says that a russian miss silo struck a hotel used by the un in jeffery, just killing at least one person. this is the 2nd attack on the southern city in recent days. it's about 50 kilometers from europe. so the biggest nuclear power plant leaders of the west african block eco was have agreed to keep options on the table, including military force to restore civilian rule in these,

yet they've ordered that military chiefs to put together a stand by force. if diplomacy fails, there are no signs they follow that nisha is going to will have that power. and the former south african president jacob zoom, it has reported to prison only to be swiftly released again under a new program to avoid over crowding and jails. sigma was sentenced to 15 months in prison 2 years ago for refusing to face questioning of a corruption and cronyism allegations. his imprisonment spot riots that left hundreds dead to the football. welcome. now with sweden have shopped the favorites japan to, to one to pilot into the semi finals as often knocking out title holders the us and the last round. the 2003 run is up now faced spain and the loss full. and that progression means that the trophy will have 1st time when is this you sweden,

if, when the queens of the st face of this tournament, and yet again, they close time, it can depends bucks. you a free kick and escape go to see the worth of the sofa. despite the defend aconia for sweden and get pen 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 press box, assuming a bad say 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

dw sports correspondence. all of the moody was out that game in oakland. he tells me how sweet and manage to bloss, pos, japan, and get into the semi finals 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 were too well organized that accounts for a tax and sub japan so well up 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 scruffy goals. japan do does have to credit, i think from bouncing a light fight back button. they're passing, right? all was awful nights the precision that they've had throughout this tournament. and attacked 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 usa and germany went out 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 usa 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 there's 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, but overall i think this has been an incredibly open wells comp and i think every team 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 find on who 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 signed up on not say 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 immovable object and as i said, it is often the effective themes rather than the aesthetically pleasing themes that when i think i would go with sweeten at this point. but 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 as we just said that spain have reached the semifinals for the 1st time in the days earlier game, they beat the netherlands in extra time. thanks to this wonderful solo go from selma, are away low. it sealed a to one when in wellington, and then now it will staying in new zealand for the semi finals. now russia has launched its 1st moon mission in almost 50 years. luna 25 mission will study the lunar surface search results as such as morsa. russia is aiming to be the 1st country to successfully land out. the moon's south pole is competing. that that distinction with india, which launched its only dimension just last month. you're
