the the, this is dw news lie, but from berlin tonight, the deadly wildfire on hawaii residents say they had no warning, and no sirens found. at least 55 people have been killed on the island of mount. we tonight, we'll report on his story town raised into the ground by the police. also coming up

. speculation growing that russia's wagner mercenary group may be leaving tele roofs. many of its forces only recently relocated to the country and everything still to play for in the women's football roll top suite in surprise for the final victory over former champions. japan means all the previous windows are now out of the running. that in more coming up in our sports, the hybrid golf, it's good to have you with this on this friday tonight, records and show that there were no warning sirens sounding before people ran for their lives. as wildfires in gulf, a wide, at least 55 people have been killed in many more are missing on the island of male we. the governor of the state says that the blazes are the worst natural disaster ever to hit hawaii of the coastal town to behind. on the island,

the valley has been basically raised to the ground. many residents, they are had harrowing escapes and some are questioning whether the authorities, what they did to warn people of the danger of the historic hawaiian town of la haine. a reduced to smouldering rubble, all, most of the nights as firefighters work to extinguish the last of the flames or authorities have begun assessing the scale of the damage. we probably have well over a 1000 buildings that have been destroyed. many, many hundreds of families have been displaced, will rebuild the president has already just in 6 hours authorized and approved our request for emergency support. but it's going to be a long hall scene from the air, the once vibrant, the town appears. little more than a wasteland. of ash and ruins rescue teams have been deployed from the us mainland . but with hundreds of people still missing there

a fee is that many never made it down a live. some of those who did a returning home coming back and like actually knowing that our house burned out. we haven't really known anything for the last couple of days because there's no information coming through. tens of thousands of tourists have been evacuated from the island of molly. but for the majority of la haine, as residents, there is no home to sleep too. many will now move to emergency shelters across the island. as the government works to open hotels and holiday houses for those now left homeless, this is gonna take years, years to recover and it just breaks my heart. that's all the history from back in the waiting days. the 1800 us ashton does. but despite the challenge and of the cost, hawaii, so authority is ended, people have vowed to rebuild,

however long it takes i want to get another our correspondence cover, the edge from where she's covering the story for us from washington to cover the, the rescue relief efforts they're still ongoing. what more do we know about the situation on mountain? yes, precisely, brenda search for victim is ongoing how why residents continue to try to find their missing loved ones. my. we called him a your to report us today that the death total consists of people was buddies. i've been found outdoors. this means that the rescue teams have not yet a search to the interiors of buildings for victims. we also know that nearly 11000 people remain without power in molly and that hawaii emergency management records now show that the warranties tyrants apparently did not sound before people run for their lives from the wildfires instead of fish will send alerts on mobile phones, television. now, so radius stations with widespread power outages may may have limited the reach of

that. we know that tens of thousands of people have been evacuated. we are they staying now as well? it seems friends that it's people in the community who took the lead and organizing before emergencies has those were installed. those with extra rooms or trucks offered a shelter. and we also know that residents in nearby areas, we're also offering food and baby formula, diapers close. and most of them were posting online messages, offering help at but now they're also emergencies. heather's mainly for the residents, and more than $14000.00 visitors have already left molly on flights. according to hawaii, governor a door screen, a residence of the hyena will be able to go back to their homes today. yeah, it, it was quoted as saying that the residents should be prepared to see destruction that they have never seen before in their lives. i know that you as president biden has declared the area of the state or yeah, emergency,

which means it's going to free up some level of federal funding for the people there. um, what else is the government doing to help people people last everything. oh, we know that president biden spoke with the governor, josh green by phone today, after the governor completed a survey of the destruction across molly, according to the white house he, the governor, provided the president with a 1st hand to update and assessment of the latest needs at the us military, also mobilized its emergency response, including 133 national guard members who are on the ground supporting efforts and guard haley cultures. they were the 1st ones to help. they done a 100000 gallons friend of water in only 5 hours on wednesday. it's also important to mention that the wildfire that costs it is widespread damage was 80 percent continued as of yesterday. however, non of the 4 major fires on my we are fully contained yet. yeah. so much transfer.

you different people, it happens so quickly. it'll be used car the, the jury in washington currently the thank you. of the germany spiegel news magazine says that the government in berlin is open to sending german made the taurus cruise missiles to ukraine of chief has been asking for the missiles for months. now officially german transferred over. i felt he's opposed to sending longer range weapons to ukraine. the tal risk, who is messiah capable of hitting targets up to 500 kilometers away the long range capability of these miss sites is the main advantage. and the reason why germany just has attempted to transfer them to ukraine. critics argue with this quote in a bit key to a tech russian territory, not as the 12 got any type of the nature of countries of agreed that the alliance should not be drawn into this consolation. washington and bow lane and attach great importance to this, and this is therefore, the key point here is the range of the whether or not we supply money with which

one can attack targets. not directly related to military operations and ukraine in to cutting it. as i'm paying german use outage, your reports, german defense minister bowers pissed char. we s as in talks with a manufacturer of the besides the objective, we pro, getting their target system to limit its range and prevent ukraine in a text on russian territory. this could last weeks too long for critics, and the main opposition party ukrainian aircraft are in a very small number in a bad condition. and there is no answer poetry already t in the occupied areas for ukraine. and therefore, it would hope to send these massage from several 100 kilometers a broad german trance. the old of choice is known for his caution when it comes to delivering heavy alms to ukraine and taking his time about making decisions. probably in hoffman is a military and defense analyst with the university of although i asked him whether these missiles are what you cree needs most right now. yeah,

absolutely. so it's, it's another type of long range stripe, west pines that the crane has received a bunch of over the last couple of miles 1st from the united kingdom, which sent the storm shadow, christmas off and then from frost with the same result but which is known in power, as under the name of called each heat. and the thing is these miss all systems, they are very effective in targeting russian positions, logistical halls, house transportation, notes of food are behind the front line, which is important for, for ukraine. and the, the big thing about tar was always that of simply another type of long range strike that can affect the fleet. try it. russian troops behind the front lot. and that was i'll be and hoffman speaking with his earlier wagner mercenaries in the bella

ruse are returning to russia just weeks after arriving. now that's according to the washington base institute for the study of war, which says that the routine leader, alexander lucas shank of has refused to finance the russian private army. the wagner group, you may remember, was allowed to operate in bella rouge after its short lived uprising against the kremlin in june. wagner, group mercenaries, training batteries and military personnel. just last month. that a races, ministry of defense released the footage, which claims to show the group who were alive to setup comp in the country by leader alexander lucas shank. go that came as a result of a deal. he brokered in june that put an end tour revolt against his close ally russian president vladimir putin bite. wagner mercenaries of the seats was launched by their leader. you have given you pre goshen way of navea lucas. chicago has

appeared to welcome wagner mercenaries being in his country. and there's a new fish on the display for which i use may wagner or helping us for free. even though there are mercenaries who fought and worked everywhere for money to bring us a jeweler, to be honest, yes, i want to keep them as a unit here to their real fighters who have been through a warfare by 2 percent should, should as well, you know, but, you know, the wagner mercenaries appeared to be setting up a base and batteries the satellite images from june, purporting to show a military facility under construction. not far from the capital means. but now, just a week later, there are unconfirmed reports that a majority of the mercenaries have been kicked out of batteries by the countries leader, alexander lucas. shank. oh, well, i'm drawing nearby and catalina step on income pressure analyst at the institute

for the study of work. she joins us now from washington, dc. it's going to have you with this. it was your organization which reported the latest on the potential movements of these wagner and fighters. we know it's very, very difficult to verify. reports like this. don't tell us how do you know this and what more can you tell us? yes, of course. the information that we've observed came from kremlin inside of sources . um, so obviously we cannot verify their full legitimacy. however, these sources in the past have been credible in when reporting on situation with russian security forces. it is, like i've said the, the evidence is the, the, the insight as far as the state. it died around $400.00 to $500.00 wagner personnel is moving to across on the price. so we, it's not the entirety of the constituency in billows. i also want to process that the rates and recently obtained satellite imagery shows that there's an increase in

military equipment. and so i suppose that you k a base in billows, which might suggest that wagner is still continuing their operations in abilities this time and might of even increase their presence. so what about the report, the bill originally dollars and look as jenko saying that he doesn't want to finance the wagner. i agree, but are we seeing there a wrist opening up between him and russian president vladimir putin? that was also a claim by one of the kremlin inside your sources who has been connected to russian security forces. it's, it's interesting to the extent of which one of luca shameka has been integrated into kind of solving the kremlin issues on the grounds. and so look, a strength of presence in this deal, you know, was an inherent slap to push in when it was 1st brokerage. and the dissolution of

this negotiation is that actually happens when i might have some implications on just which is the ability to a certain power and decisively of sol issues that happened in internally within russia. so we wagner in russia, wagner in bella ruse, why does it matter? or why is it so important to know? we're wagner mercenaries our station and locate just because it's a, it's a demonstration of fortunes ability to resolve issues that arise for his regime. obviously having 13000 militants that have previously staged in our rebellion in brawl shot weren't billers poses some sort of a thread for russian which is redeemed. so the, the whereabouts of this group of forces that is reportedly being deprived of some of the opportunities in africa and the middle east and being upset with, for example, the kremlin, couldn't be

a bad sign for fortune. i think what we're observing now is pushing continues his efforts to prioritize the destruction of the goshen as an individual, as a figure within russia, more so than actually figuring out what wagner personnel is going to do next. you know, since wagner is, is short lived, rebellion in june, the allegedly, against the leadership of the russian military. what, what, what can we say? the relationship is between wagner and rushes, various security interests around the world. you know, there were reports in the past week or so that there may be wagner forces in new share, which just experienced another could i think that there's uh, 2 currents that are, i'm going the 1st current is a defense minister, c h, troy go who has reportedly been trying to limit partners operation for broad, essentially, his goal, it seems to be to replace mark their personnel operating in africa in the middle

east, with other personnel, from other pro, private military companies affiliated with the russian ministry of defense. so right now it's, it's really unclear and it looks like the kremlin doesn't have a said a certain goal and a sense of strategy for inter greeting, wagner personnel, both in their domestic operations as well as inter um, international operations. and furthermore, in ukraine or does the step i think, and we appreciate your time and your insight tonight. thank you. thank you so much . let's take a look now some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. and us attorney general merrick garland has appointed a special counselor to investigate president biden's, son, 100 bytes, and for alleged to elicit business deals abroad. that gives the prosecutor, david weiss more authority in the case. congressional republicans have so far been

unable to tie joe biden to any of his sons reported wrong doing. hundreds of demonstrators have gathered in central but as r s after a left as political, active as died, following flashes at a protest against argentine as upcoming primary election. 30 said the man died of a heart attack while being detained by police. presidential primary will take place on sunday. hundreds of cruise of borders and rallied at a french military base in the chair. they chanted down with france down with equal was. the rally took place just a day after leaders from the west african group known as speaker was said that they would create a standby force that could be deployed to restore order in new jersey for south africa. and their president, jacob zoom is back home. every brief return to prison. jimmy was a set to start a sentence that he began 2 years ago for refusing to answer questions over. corruption allegations is arrest sparked the large white that left hundreds dead.

the 81 year old only served to 2 months of a 15 month sentence in 2021 before being fried on medical parole. a release that was later found to be unlawful and seen that was ordered back to jail. but he was there for less than an hour after being sent home under a new program to avoid prison overcrowding that correspond to diane hawker, who is in south africa. it has more now on why jacob zuba was allowed to walk free a little surprisingly the department of correctional services this morning and found that they would be not only releasing former prison jacob cooper, but what they called a $9500.00 people who were going to benefit from a sentence, remission program was essentially means that these prisoners would non violent offenders would be either serving at least a portion of the sentence. oh, depending on how much time is lived,

actually be allowed to go free. and this is obviously something that would benefit the former president, he had about 13 months left of that sentence. and as a contempt of pulse of court offend, it would be considered a non violent crime. i am pursuing in africa, the government in kenya is cracking down on protests led by the opposition against the high cost of living in plants to raise taxes in the country. the right to purchased is enshrined in kenya as constitution. dw news met one young man whose fault and foul of the action by the authorities looked good too much tells us where he confronted the police not far from his home, where his 2 year old daughter fainted, often handing police to ghast 2 weeks ago. so the police meanwhile, yeah, the most twins. think of it. they grab me this way, the police mounted me the just need to grab my hand. it take me

caught on camera videos. i picked that to him as a rest, made their way around. kenya, you too, got my child, do my shouts as a plainclothes police officer. grab some from the back and drag some into a police vehicles. so after that he said he was taken and kept in custody for 2 days before being released on bail. he's still that's a scars, that the things which he says were made by tons and why is media and i was taken to the cell after i was beaten. some people was sleeping, but i couldn't sleep. my whole body hurt on the floor and the cell was made of cement. i love, the experience was bad. my name's read to me. so with the experience was the most recent wave of protest against the high cost of living tape kenya, hod. too much neighborhood nairobi is low income area, missouri had become the scene of running vegetables into

a gas which it sold for testers and nearby residential homes. both local and national human rights groups have pulled up the government for what they say is this proportion and force in response to the protest. and its no income areas like these were residents really bad. the brunt, members of the social justice center are documenting the cases and advise them to mount on his rides. they know he's one of the lucky ones we have to date will be, and then that will be with the coefficient walks and outcast. that will be, so we're leaving the outcast and it will be where we know we've not given too much opportunity to get this set of buttons. you know, when is not recorded, nothing happens. everything needs to be documented out to make up, just like we lose this amount of use in the community. so the moment that it, or we can even, we have something to, to show to this, to this it, while the numbers very write scripts, say they've recorded of associated depth and connection to the protest across can you can, you is police inspector general, however, denied the allegations that the police had

a role to play and the depth and injuries dismissing them as opposition propaganda . so the men bustle, the business head glint, which has had a dead body's calling me the telling me the i'm not to dispute blocked into by police officers. so the proper com but what's available and we'll just kinda just kinda continue to bring us about this wonderful what to actually see. so i have this whole what's called can, has independent policing oversight authority. a government body that investigates police misconduct admits that many cases store, because either the police don't corporate or the witnesses don't come forward. once an officer, a guess, a level of the public. all fatalities costs out of what his actual we have to be notified. we've been twice or last 2 months is practically tested. so

we end up getting those notices. we have the most visuals all over the world and we don't good. so that's what it is like we get to do. so we know that the somebody that we need to do and that these 2 leg unit, the demo by legal fremont do most case is due back in court in a few weeks. and while he is good but the police could retaliate, he's still determined to speak up the, to the football world cup where it's waiting to have that shock favorites japan to one to power into the semi finals having also knocked out title holders the united states. and this last round, the 2003 runner ups face spain, the last 4 and sweden's progression means the trophy will have 1st time winners this year of sweden, if in 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 roll. so what it is, we do a step, the press box, assuming that say for the 2011, when as soon as the frame with the goal, what they did find the money is a goal for her norco i see, but it was too late. sweeten match on what we spoke to sweden's goal scoring, defender amount of those days after the game. so i could bring them through. i mean uh it seems unbelievable. um, but of course i'm really happy,

really happy that i could help the team with scoring goals also, but it's a, it's a, it's a teamwork out there. and it's not about one person we're doing so well as a team. so i'm really happy about that. these board corresponded oliver moody was that the game and argument that he told me how sweet and had managed a blast pastor panted into the semi finals? well, that's right. the team 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 suite and played this game to affection. they would too well organized to the counselor at sykes and sub japan. so well up until now at this tournament, they would do physical to let japan play through them and they were happy as well more than happy. in fact, to go through by scoring scrap the goals, japan do, does have some credit, i think from bouncing a light fight back button passing,

right? all was all full 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. this was made me while reached the semi finals for the 1st time, but the tournament, the, those 3. 0 yeah. and the z like they beat the netherlands and extra time. thanks to this. wonderful. so the goal from solve my problem way low. it sealed a to one wedding, wellington and it means they will state in these even for g is a semi final with this we've in off with are here some of the other stories now from the world a sports events. football taught in him. hotspur striker he retained is said to complete his move to buy and munich, that's according to both floods. a fee of over a $100000000.00 euro is, is reportedly been agreed. so for the england captain, that would be a 1st for the german bonus league in tennis, wimbledon champion, carlos out garage is through tonight's quarter finals in toronto. this bang, your boss, the 1st that the poland, cheaper cost,
