was lisa. the policy he founded wins pallet and thailand's parliament and the u. s . president visits hawaii 2 weeks off to america is dead, may as well sized in more than a century. divide is facing criticism that his government was too slow to respond. plus spain that return home to celebrate the historic wealth comp, when with thousands of funds in madrid, that all is not well following a string of control. the see the i'm on you can just make it and thank you for being with us. we begin with some breaking news from pakistan where a risky ebelin rescue mission is on the way to reach 8 people trapped in a cable call this dangling over a deep valley among those on board, all 6 children that were using that on the list to get to school in pack of sounds,

remote mountainous northwest old, one of the golden rule is support cables snapped leaving it hanging almost 300 maces above a ravine. come on. those from pakistan's army are trying to rescue the passengers using helicopters. it's got the very latest from gentlest machine. our boss who is in, is lama bad at nothing. what more can you tell us? well, at the moment, 7 hours have passed since 6 school children among 8 people have been stuck in a cable car after 2 bits wire snapped early morning. today, this happened a new city called but a gum instead of a full quad. this cable car is dangling between mountains and has an almost to thousands of dropped. the terrain is rocky and there is a river beneath the cable car. the rescue operation is being conducted by the armed forces. a special unit contact has been made with the students. students are between the ages of 10 and 15 years. one of the 20 year old passengers has said

that 2 of them are slipping out of consciousness. they don't have food or drinking water, and their mobile phones are also losing the battery life. the people, as you were saying, have been trapped since early morning. local time. can you give us the reasons that this rescue is so tricky? well, a rescue official has said that the rescue mission is complicated due to gusty winds in the area, and the fact that helicopters blades risk further destabilizing the list. so far, 2 attempts have been made and there is apparently, as we speak, a helicopter hovering over the cable car rest you 1122, which is irrelevant or t has said that if ariel efforts are unsuccessful, then they will try to make efforts from the ground okay, now we're hearing that the government has issued an order to inspect all such lists and immediately close those that are not safety compliant isn't not so little bit late given what's happening right now. absolutely, i mean, obviously,

i mean there should be checked by relevant authorities on a regular basis. but mind you, this is this cable car as a form of transportation for kids to go to and from school, the cables. i was privacy run by local authorities because they're new roads or bridges in the area. this issue is not only about relevant authorities, but how into the national budget is allocated to the caretaker prime minister care ticker chief minister of federal student. while i have given strong statements, but maybe this is more of a wake up call for those and overlapping relevant authorities to help create an infrastructure that supports communities instead of being forced to create danger, solutions for transportation, nothing. a bus reporting from his mom about thank you so much for that. thank you. l o make is in thailand. have voted for a new prime minister, a pointing assess, that's how we send of the populace to tie policy prophecy type things. leadership

signals a significant shift and type of the tax, often nearly a decade as military back to set that will lead a coalition of 11 policies including 2 pro military policies. and the vote came out was off the full my p type policy, found the former prime minister attacks and should've was returned to the country from self imposed exile. he was immediately jailed on corruption related charges, which he says politically motivated. touching down in thailand for the 1st time in 15 years, perhaps then she knew what arrived home to rapturous applause. immediately pausing to pay his respects to thailand's royal family. are the same. a prime minister, in 1000000000 near is so acknowledged, huge crowds of his surprises. i feel fulfilled that i traveled

here today to see him arrive. if possible. i want to hug him. everyone here was crying. we waited for him to return to thailand. that's the feeling that we got someone we love back home. but tex, than did not stay long, he was quickly whisked away to the supreme court where he was sentenced to use in january. so convictions passed in his absence charges. he maintains a politically motivated tax and was asked in a military coup in 2006, but backing among his so called read should suppose it's remain strong. made up of poor voters from thailand's know they'd mind, his policies on cheap health care and the minimum wage. but those opposing tax in the yellow shirts often presenting monica is or city elite. so his role as corrupt after sentencing tax and was taken to a bank of jail, but it may be a brief stay,

many believe the timing of his return. hence he has struck a deal as text and form a political pass. he is on the verge of forming a government, helping paved the way for the homecoming of one of timelines, most influential and controversial politicians. a asia pacific, there are chief scale methodist, is following the story for us from to casa. and i asked him to tell us more about taxes in china. what absolutely without style one, it's not going to take a heavy weight of motor and type politics that is tax. and she and a wife who was ousted in the military coup in 2006, later his sister was ousted his daughter, a federal government, you know, walk, has been running as a private, as to your candidates in this may so general election. so he really customs from a political dentist that has been running type politics and was now taking the

opportunity that to return to thailand, he is loved by the rule poor. he introduced a minimum wage of general health care and he's despised by the age, money elite and back. 0 all right, so what about the timing of all of this? as you say he's being in excel for 15 years? why is he chosen to return to tying on? now i think frankly there's 2 aspects we need to bear in mind here. one is, he's 74, he's been an exile of for a 15 years and has 7 grandchildren. so he has very high personal motivation to finally return to his home country seat assembly to rejoin with his family. and then the other one is the political constellation. now, and that is with a pure type, a party empower now with a pure type, a prime minister, in a ruling coalition and the seat of power. it's the almost ideal situation to return back to thailand. as you say, i mean the type of them it has literally just voted to install this new prime

minister from tax ins policy. i mean, what do you think that that might mean for tax and himself as well? there's some one interesting aspect here and that is that the po type, a party of the 2nd largest opposition party, had to strike a deal with political opponents from the past. the proven to, to pro military parties are in that's willing to listen. and there is the suspicion or the room, or at that a deal behind the scenes has been struck to allow those pro, military pro royal, this tardies some influence and the new government in return for a royal partner to the 8 year sentence, been texted, you know, what is now facing a that's the beauty party has refuted and i said there's nothing to it. and in fact, the new prime minister has made clear that what he has done is a tough deal with political opponents, but a necessary deal to break a deadlock that has kept the country and the economy of one of the top 3 economies

in southeast asia are at a standstill basically, and so that is not a result of since the may a general election give much as they don't use asia pacific bureau cheese. thank you so much for that. okay, let's take a look. now some of the other news from around the world, and russia says that it has down to ukrainian drones. name of the officials say the drones were shot down near towns on the west and outskirts of the capital to all the drones crushed in the border region. of friends that were no injury or injuries reported to the head of the vows in imaginary group. yes. can you prove, goes and has published his 1st recruitment videos since a sales and use me in russia in june progression suggested that he was in africa, all flaming. he was busy making, quote, russia, even fray to on or continents, his current whereabouts on the inviting you. i assessed international commercial

flight leave, north korea and 3 years as lives in beijing flights. going to the secretive, isolated nation have also resumed those career closed as photos in early 2020. to prevent the spread of code. 19 world leaders are in south africa, the 15th bricks, summit, the bricks, nations, which oper, they'll russia, india, china and south africa awaiting the addition of more members to the group. rushes, president, let them in person won't be attending in person. he faces an international arrest warrant alleged full crimes in ukraine. the us president joe biden has visited the hawaiian island of maui to see the devastation left by recent walled sizes maybe 2 weeks ago . more than 110 people are known to have died in the flames, but that death toll is expected to rise with more than 800 others still unaccounted

for. this the deadly as wild saw in the united states more than a century. long hugs into a woods is the president and 1st lady touch down in mallory. they were there to offer support to the survivors and to pay respects to those who lost their lives. in the wilds highest, the devastated to the island. the 1st couple were given a closer look what's left to the historic town of the hey, you know, which was old, but to break to write it in the wind, whipped and sign a hawaii state govern adjusted queen size search teams have now covered most of the area looking for the more than 800 people who are still missing, but the rest of the search could take weeks. president biden's administration has been criticized by some of the survivors and republicans who say the responses being ineffectual and insufficient. standing next to one of the most

famous landmarks, the 150 year old brand new entry, the president to use that as a method for, for the islanders resilience and revival to my left is the bed and 3 beloved by this community for over a 150 years here, the former capital of the kingdom, hawaii, as it stood for generations as a sacred spot of exceptional significance today is burned. but it's still standing. tre, survive for a reason. i believe it's a powerful, a very powerful symbol. what we can and will do to get through this crisis for this, for as long as it takes, we're going to be with you the whole country be with you. the hate, in the general, the end of the vial size may have now subsided, and the focus turned to the task of rebuilding about the people have. now we will need much more than reassurance and will much to recover from the saving blaze that

has ravaged the island they call home. i don't use country more, it is on my way following the story for us. and she told us more about what jo biden's visit means for the people. the residential by them was received by indifference in the island, if 11 talking to they just shrugged their shoulders. they feel like the local authorities, health from the authorities came late. however, it was very important for the authorities here in hawaii, the president by then. so the scope of the, of, of the station for himself. so, and so if you to a visa, a real tour and the helicopter to assess that. also, he met with the families with some other families affected, to hear firsthand testimonies on what the people in right now need people who just have 30 days in a hotel room,

but they don't know what's going to happen after that. then they don't have any perspective on how they're going to rebuild their lives in the white house and also major. so the job i did not pointed today, uh, spurious, senior emergency response official to coordinate all the long term recovery efforts here on the ground, me the white house a has also deployed more than 1000 responders, 450 rescue teams and 40 dogs to help identify victims and they, they are providing more funding about a 1000000 the main complain from the family. so is that the $700.00 to $800.00 for a family coming from the federal government is not enough to support or not even short term. that was the w as country more reporting from now we hawaii now germany's chanc slot. well, actually it's was once labeled the climate chancellor and his government said that fighting climate change was one of its top priorities. but

a new review of its policies has found that it is pulling short of its promises experts the saying that it won't meet. it's legally binding commitments to cut greenhouse gases to limit the impact of climate change. germany is set itself on business targets to cabinets, emissions of greenhouse gases, gases produced by human activity that are the main drivers of climate change, like carbon dioxide. the government is filed to cheese a 65 percent reduction by 2013, so and 70 s time. but according to a new review by jeremy's council of experts on climate change, the country is unlikely to reach its own targets stomach. some of the overall we have reached the conclusion that there is a gap when it comes to achieving the assignment goal is going to look at this. that means that the current climate protection program does not meet the requirements of such a program as it is formulated and the law, which is to make it possible to meet those goals. sealants, a few on the council review data on some of these current greenhouse gas emissions

and assess the impacts of the government's plans to reduce them. it concluded that the measures will not be enough on the planned, selected, coherent and consistent overall concept. the main problem, areas construction and transport. the experts had already identified these 2 sectors of some of the most damaging in terms of greenhouse gas production, especially transport. despite the government's proposed measures to cut the emissions because the estimates the building sector will exceed its targets by 34 mega tons, while the estimates for the transport sector life between 17191 mega tons. the expert counsel is now urging the government to deliver a more concrete plan of action and step up its efforts. one concrete example to consider dismantling climate. the imaging subsidies in both sectors and symbol i am drawing now by adult tap blankets. a note from the costs of research institutions label comments about the scientific pink time karen, berlin, and she is also deputy chair of the drummond council of experts on climate change

which published that review. welcome to the w. thank you for your time. so with this review, are you essentially saying, but the jim and governments climate change policy is not fit for purpose. yeah, that's right, but i think it's also fair to say that this government has made sure made a huge step of right. they have provided the commas that can program quite console and comprehensively, 113 inches. but the point is when we really want to reach the 23rd 2 targets, there's still a considerable gap to reach these targets. and what the say is, 1st of all, we need the monitoring that the, what the government has proposed can really be reached. but the also say that, of course, this gap has to be closed. so it would be important that the government provides a plan how to close the remaining gap. okay, and can you tell us about the climate change counsels concern, but it's also not receiving enough data from the governments. i mean,

can we assume that the government is hiding something here? no, definitely not the handle type thing. something we go to about 20 different studies . but the problem is it's like a huge puzzle and, and, and to get parts of 3 or 4 different parcels. so they don't fit together. so it was very hard for us to really say whether the numbers that the government provided. because this have 12, this program provides 900 mega tons and the remaining and get this to 100 mega tons . but it's, it's a bit difficult, it was difficult for us to say whether these are really the right numbers. but i'm independent of that. i mean that it's perhaps a little bit technical to say that the data do not fit together. but more important is the problem that there is still the script. and when you look at the measures, for example, we have a strong focus on am, am in the building sectors for, for measures, for that quite costly. but for the 2nd, for example,

our economic instruments, like as from the cotton pricing and, and so on. so i think it's important to focus on on, on this gap and probably not too much on, on, on the data availability. okay. you just now mentioned the building a sec to the climate change council has also chris criticized. the government's progress in the transport set. separate right now the focus is on the controversial new. he's seeing more isn't it? which is aiming to phase out oil and, and gas. he's saying, what's the council's opinion on that? yeah, exactly. so in both sectors, the building sector and for trends protect them. we have a problem. and i think this is very much due to the fact that this will be seen in many countries that these measures come closer to the people 5. if, if you change that power plant doesn't matter so much. but if you have to install a new heating, it's very near to the people or if you have to switch from a gasoline engine to an electro more by car. so this is where the conflicts are.

and it would be a say is that this new law for the building sector and it is a step in the right direction if it is complimented with the right missions, but also be need to address the social aspects that are related to that. so this is why we also say we need to full fledged comprehensive approach and concept. we need to address this full transformation to really get to the targets by a, by 25 team. okay? adults itself, i would love to ask you what you specifically would like to see the government do to get back on track towards achieving its climate goals, to speeding everything up. i would say there are $2.00 to $3.00 points. so one of us, certainly, i mean the, such as, let's say, proposals by the government's or intentions. and it's very important to keep track on this whether they are the dis for post measures really implemented. right?

it's like when you try and say, i will clean up my room. you probably should look after that, whether it's really done. so this is $11.00 part and the other one on the measures . i'm. we say that one option could really be a, as a national emissions trading system in germany for heating and transport with a kept by 2027. and to have this much earlier to have this cap and to have an additional price signal. and then also the 3rd point is to really have a full public process on that to address. also the social conflicts that might arise, i'm giving this transformation typically gets it cannot from the german council of x, but on time it change. thank you for being so clear in your answers and thank you for your time and for speaking us that the w thank you. all right, here is more stories at making headlines right now and days of heavy rain have left

a number of control overseas, surrounding the same before and off to the tournaments. have threatened to the rail, the revelry up and down your boss to learn a from dw sports, joins me now. down here is a professional football, a himself who has played in several countries in including spain. it's great to see you don. yes. so, um, crazy night last night in madrid. i mean, obviously just so much pastor and excitement, the amazing, the prime minister today. i believe i'm not many people even sold the spain could ever be a well champion today. right. i mean, this is a mass of accomplishment for span. of course, their 1st woke up ever. now this is the fruit of many years of development in women's football in spain. i mean, when i was playing there, you could see that they were laying the fundamentals for what would be a very promising federation one day. now the thing is, is that nobody,

despite the amount of talent that they have really gave them a chance because they were caught up and a dispute, the players with the federation and the coach leading up to the tournament. now the players said that there was a lack of professionalism, but actually wanted the coach to resign and what the faded was. but they essentially took the side of the coach and they came down pretty heavily on the players, which caused a lot of players to actually sit the world cup out some very, very good players. that then causes a lot of divide in a team, which is not what you want going into a tournament, like the world cups. and of course, this is also why now people are happy that they want, of course, but it leaves a little bit of bitterness because it almost justifies with the, as they did. if you don't know really what's going on beneath the surface face of as these control facies varies, the, the celebrations of the excitement. and of course, you know, the, the actions of the spanish football fed federation president, which have been grubbing the headlines and how people react thing to what happened after the match just to catch up on it. yeah,

so there's been massive outcry. so he was celebrating a little bit excessively with all of the players, but at one point he grabs the head of one of the players jennifer her most so and he kisses her on the mouth. so now it gets even worse because then in the locker room after the game, a few of the players were on instagram lives. and um, they were talking about it and she said, you know, i didn't like it, but what could i do? and then you see him in the locker room and he has his arm around her, and he says, oh, we're going to be there to celebrate our wedding. so really kind of unaware of how inappropriate it was. she initially brushed it off, but then once he saw how much outcry there was, he said, you know, he apologized and said he probably made a mistake. but this is just kind of like an ugly reminder of, you know, the, the scandals that go on to sexism scandals in women's football in span, especially because ruby alice, for example. he was one of the people that the team said, you know, he doesn't respect women's football. he doesn't take it seriously. and you know, when they went to the federation, she didn't really listen to them. all right?

okay, we'll have to leave it there. i'm afraid that done yet. buffalo know, thanks so much for that. and we'll explain, of course, and that is all from us for now. kick off is off next for the look at the start of a new bundle legal season. i money keeps mccain, and thanks for watching. i'll see you soon. the
