the the, this is the w news live from the land. the countdown is on india's lunar landing beach. andrea on 3 space cross will very soon attempt to touch down on the moon's south pole. now, this comes just days after a similar russian leading atlanta crashed. also coming up on the program, drones target moscow for the 6 nights in a row striking buildings and forcing ad foreclosures. meanwhile, ukraine says roxanne drones, palms grain stores in odessa and lead us from the bricks nation this whole,

the 2nd day of this summit in south africa, the wells major emerging economies say that being held back by rich western countries and want to expand that outside of cent alliance plus zimbabwe as i was saying in general elections and made high inflation and unemployment. the opposition hope to end the ruling policies organ forcing. he is in power, the money keeps mccain. and thank you so much for being with us. in less than 2 hours, india will attempt to become the 1st country to land a space craft on the moon's south pole. now the chandra on 3 will shortly attempt to touch down and begin exploring parts of the dark side of the moon. this is india's 2nd attempt. the lunar landing and comes only days off to

a similar russian croft craft 3010. the chandra and 3 spacecraft successfully launched in mid july to great fun fast across india and the wind to weld. last week the indian space was such organization confirmed the land had separated from its propulsion section, which had carried it close to the moon. now its hopes that land code, vic, chrome will make you controlled touch down near the moon, south pole. but that's no easy feat. gillian, 4 years ago was similar indian mission ended up in a crash landing, which is cutting debbie the would not give off on it. space ambitions and quickly launch it's the lunar attempt until

a few days ago it was in a race against the russian spacecraft to which the move in the south pole. but most goes noon or $25.00 prob it's 1st moon mission in almost 50 is crashed at the weekend. the south pole is full of craters and deep trenches, and it's hard to land on the cartridge has a price less commodity. and that will show ice and that could support a future new nicole in a mining operations and possible missions to mars. no one did then that the us, china and japan. oh, so watching an honest on moon missions for now the old eyes are on india. as the world wait to see if the chandry and 3 spacecraft can make a successful soft landing port. okay. com and joining me for more on this is all

science reports and so should be set rather crushed on me. so thanks so much for being with us. people in india must be watching this with, with basic brass. i mean what, how is what's happening here being, being seen at home. what's the feeling like that? it's a fine for, for sure. it's 4 years of hard work that's gone into this for more years with 10 grand to which feed and it's 40. i was 40 b is a 5. so the tension since the launch happened. and of course, the nearby thing last 15 minutes. i think people are crazy, they really want this to soft line. that would be historic rise happens. and that's the thing. i mean, we keep here in the world historic, don't we related to this mission? you know, why is this such a big deal? for the last 50 years or more like a half essentially we haven't had a moon landing almost every mission that tried to land in the $1.00 fee and photos of the last 5 missions failed, including the tundra on to

a new not $25.00. as we saw it's, it's been very difficult to get something on the moon, especially on the south side, which is of interest me. the a host of things could go wrong, couldn't them? and we did just see the, the russian attempt fail. but um, you know what all the chances of success, i mean is, is it essentially all we hoping that this one is gonna work? uh yes, uh, but the thing is, even with the adoption uh mission we saw that the engine was running for a little longer than it should have. uh and this is the reason why its kinda crashed into uh the morning before it was suppose to align softly. but tundra too, we had similar problems where it was supposed to land gracefully, but instead moments before it was supposed to line, it just hung crashed. so this is because in the last minute when it's supposed to load it onto most, it's not, no, but from here. so almost everything that happens often it's on it's spot,

it's like sky diving. you can't really and why it, it, until it gets down to the moon and the moon has to be no, it doesn't have a smart feel like it's like if i were to jump onto the surface of the bad issues with slow me down. because the most feel drives me up, but we don't have enough most fit on the moon. therefore, the only way it's getting to the morning is with perfect precise calculations that come from the software. okay, so in the last moments there is nothing anyone down here can do. everyone is just watching and wasting. yeah. and if everything does go right fingers crossed india will be the 1st a nation to successfully land on the south pole of the moon. this is the difference, isn't it? why the focus on this part of the moon in particular, we've been looking for what it on the moon for a very long time. and it is believed by a lot of scientists that the south one is rich and ice and water. and if we do find water, this means that there is

a tons of life on the moon. this means that we have the possibility of setting up a permanent station in the morning sometime in the future, not any time soon, but it gives us a cope to conduct scientific experiments on this basis. additionally, the south also has out or is set to have a lot of minute is and macros, which i've read. and if we do find them, we get to know a little bit better about the origins of this, what law system, how it is, how it was made, or like how it's composed. we get to know more information on this. and we would also get to know about the site of the moon that's not been explored too far. all is the lunar landings that's happened in the past was closer to the equator of the moon, some light in the center. so we haven't explored the syrian humans so far. so this really is something that is incredibly exciting, dw science reporter such misa, ramakrishna. and thanks so much. thanks for bringing us up to date. uh

okay, lets take a look now at some of the other headlines making news around the world and the philippines have sent supply boats to a remote outpost in the south trying to see despite what a government spokesman called harassment by china. the supply vessels were blocked by the chinese coast guard, even while being escorted by the philippines, navy, and coast guard, china claims large pump. so the dispute to region, as it's i if i q agents are on the way in flooding, parts of the central chile, as heavy rains continue to swamp the region. emergency 7th services have brought tens of thousands to safety. but many more people remain cash off from basic services. the government has declared a space of catastrophe in the worst affected areas. in file on formally, the attacks and shinall watch has been moved to a hospital during his 1st night in prison. officials say the 74 year old was suffering from chest discomfort,

tax and was jailed to 8 years on corruption charges on tuesday. just all i was after arriving back in thailand, often many years in exile. smell ends in bob. why people have been chewing up to cost the ballast as the country elect a new paul limits, local governments, and most importantly, a president. it's only the 2nd general election off to the death of robot mcgarvey, who dominates its involved way in politics, the decades incumbent president, emerson men gadbois from the power falls on the policy is seeking a 2nd time. he's challenged by nelson tanisha and bob friends rise before the phone because they've done this after 2 decades of economic chaos and inflation currency around 100 percent. people are impatient for things to change. the mess up with us in our business because i move in. so we need something good to

help them end of the roads added to the d. uh more most schools you want some stuff to change. bob with the tires of a building and stuff. 6 that are 2 key candidates facing off in this general election incumbent president monk vile from this on a party. and nelson show me so from the opposition body citizens coalition for change. my dunc about took power in 2017 after the military. cool, and one in elections the following year, but that when was quietly disputed, he sees his government has created stability and economic opportunities in zimbabwe . the, the,

the, the, the currently one of every fours and bob fins is out of regular work in tone is pledging economic growth ness corruption. and a more inclusive country to try to, to these promises resonate with the countries you. some of them will be voting today for the full time to middle collide with the i'm appealing with the ecology is to show the cries in address our concerns. we're not being towed as young people. we do not have jobs, in fact, up to one millions and bob presents will be voting for the very 1st time. a significant number with the powered impact cimbawe police future. can you find now where

authorities say of russian attack on a school in rome, the, in the northeast killed 2 stuff is and wounded. 3 other people. ukraine also blamed russia for drug and attack on grain stores near ports in odessa. and now this comes off for a building and central must go was damaged in a wave of drone to time. so it's a nice, the russian capital has been targeted for the 6 and the lights in a row full thing. the closure of most goes apples, rushes, defense ministry instead of shot down to drones, and disabled a cert electronically. the kremlin is blaming ukraine for the attacks. it's more on this. we can speak to military analysts, marina marilyn from kings college london. she's joining us today from munich high marina, and i must go who has been the target of thrown attacks for 6 nights and arose. we just heard that if we presume that ukraine is behind this as rusher, is saying, what might the strategy be here? a good day. um, well we have seen those attacks,

it was less frequency starting in may. and those attacks don't really have any military significance for say, because they're large layer of caching symbolic targets. so the fact here is supposed to be psychological. and also because the counter offensive is not going as planned and storing the attention away from the battlefield and taking the poor to russia to russia's homeland. specifically to moscow is the kind of idea to inculcate, feared to show that the president put 10000 has a power to protect his citizens was in his territorial jurisdiction. however, that being said, the effect of the attacks might have also an, an opposite effect in that it's trying since put into narrative about ukraine conducting essentially terrorist attacks. and i'm giving him more reasons to mobilize people and to mobilize support for his war effort in ukraine. so it's

a double edged sword for ukraine when, when, if you create, as indeed behind such attacks me, the german foreign minister yesterday defended these drone attacks. and i'll come back to you in a 2nd marina, cuz we're just gonna play a full clip from atlanta. that book was long for the rest of it is line item. do you and tried this? been under use of violence, restaurants, plumbing, civilian targets, and in ukraine, incessantly. grain silo hospitals tried choice and ukraine of defending itself and speak within the boundary side international law. and we have make that clear time and time again to jointly gamma. so elena bab, germany's far administer, saying that these attacks are covered by international law. so that's the case. is it? as well as the problem is that russia houses declared war. so there is no more in the legal sense, the, despite what we're seeing happening in ukraine. now the other problem is the

come back before from a kind of military ethical perspective. if you're a diverse or he does something that is strictly prohibited, it doesn't necessarily give use rights to respond in kind. and by doing that, ukraine would be losing the moral high ground by, by attacking we all understand reasoning behind those attacks. if you pray this behind those attacks, however, given this perspective looking strictly from the military optical perspective and from the human to terry international humanitarian law, it does not give any parties a right to respond in kind and to violate the law. meanwhile, ukraine is saying that russia attacked this school in, in, in northeast and ukraine, killing 2 people. a school clearly is not a military target. has russia given some kind of reason for targeting this particular area as well right now, what, what we have here,

are you crazy reports about the attack on the school? and obviously the russian side, as one would expect, is denying targeting the school. so there are 2 possibilities either. is there a tack was intentional or it was not intentional? if it was intentional, it's certainly about russia has the same problem as ukraine by targeting civilian targets. it undermines the, the support for the war because the russian citizens will be seeing those news as well. on the one hand, on the other hand, it strengthens the ukranian resolve to expel russian forces from the occupied territories. so it's not favoring russia in any way. it's not a military target, if that attack was not intentional and we know that the russian might have used, i don't know how many, because we don't have more information. the iranian maitre head threatens that

might not be as accurate. so the risk a possibilities that they were not aiming for the school. however, we need to wait and see how the situation unfolds and was, is there the, the reports can be confirmed by western forces. marina moran from kings college loans. and thanks was evan single analysis. on your time, thank you for having me. the leaders of the bricks group of nations are into the 2nd day of may things in johannesburg. they using the summit to demand changes to instant international institutions. the heads of government of brazil, china, south africa and india as well as russians are in minnesota. talking about expanding the block and using a currency other than the us dollar to reduce western economic dominance, the group assess itself, the goal of increasing the political weight of countries from the global south in

international affairs. now the russian president, climate person is not present in johannes, but he is taking pos in the summit by video link and an address to the delegates. he said russia wants to end the world, that quote, has been unleashed by the west and its satellites in ukraine. let's take a listen. all actions and ukraine are guided by only one thing to put and then to the will that was leased by the west against people in don't boss. we think our colleagues within breaks the taken access thoughts in the attempts to put an end to the situation and to insure just supplements by peaceful means. the way we can speak to the company is you're a russia. so now he used to be based in moscow until russia band dw that he can

tell us more about the message that person is delivering at this brooks summit uri um, what did you make of what the president person had to say in front of the audience? that he was speaking to and i think such of works are the most important message support in regards to it that we just had to put in himself because he's most important goal ease on seems to be to show that he is an isolated the time to to meet the supports also sounded like a kind of justification that putting himself counts, taught take part in the summit, it sounded as if he wanted to convince of the others that the arrows to warrant against him by the international criminal court was completed on justified just and as i'm justified, as the position so that the officer is waging the one you crane, which from his perspective is exactly the opposite. so in his opinion that the west is waging war against the russia ukraine. so put him just to onto the table vases because of tactic over the criminal to take requisitions against ross and to blame

the others for exactly the same reasons. i think that such a form of the big states officer put into the best opportunity for such criticism because of the onto west an attitude, especially off china yesterday, for example, putting all the dimensions and his address, the grain agreement from the trash or something was drew at who is to blame according to putting you granted not to the best, not pressure. okay. now, as you said, present isn't in south africa because that would have put in the risk of arrest under an international criminal court. lawrence. and from what you, you know, to, to what extent is russia's invasion of ukraine overshadowing the, the brakes discussions that are happening in johannesburg. and i think that the fact that the rush of putting isn't sitting at the table in person is something quite extraordinary. bought africa and brought to crime seems a very big topic, economic relations between the brick states and that can only be right for putting in his speech. he spent much more time. advertising are also

a good on the aspects of the cooperation between the brakes. congress and culture used contacts and as an indication that the people in your grant is at least put in the unlikely propeller. very, very important role was put in very long and detailed announcement is that the russia will be hosting the next break summit next year. it's will take place and because on the capital over there are some of the public off that are done off more . so we have to wait and see where the vase will actually take place and in which, which a framework it will take place. we have one, your credit is still ongoing and there is no assign the police weiss will answer any time soon. eerie, thanks so much. that's the double use your rate which has a reporting and some more on the brick summit that's taking place in johannesburg. i'm joined here in the studio by dw hands brunt hands. welcome. can we start with a quick reminder of what breaks actually is? well, the, it's an acronym, obviously brazil, russia, india, china,

and south africa. these 5 countries at a groups together on the initiative of restaurants since 2009, we're looking here, it's 2 of the countries with the largest population in the world, china and india, russia, a major atomic and military power and also a major economy until not so long ago and then of course the result imagined economy in south america, so that for it there are a major economy in africa. so these are countries that are to be taken seriously. that make up 40 percent of the will population orland oil and they are economic the very, very important, especially china. it's a good thing. in other words, that one contact uh that one has to take seriously. we keep hearing the word counts of ways. i mean, what kind of counter ways is bricks seeking to be to the influence of the western countries. there's 2 aspects of it. the one is the political, the other is they cannot make. but do you think they obviously they are trying to criticize the west to find common ground in uh,

facing western influence and facing western pressure, for instance, on the systems on the government. this is something especially important for, for china and russia, obviously, which autocratic the rules. and the economic part is that to $1.00 price to find ways of increasing trade in the south of the con of the, of the world. in other words, from soft or false rather than to be dependent on trades to the north with industrial countries. and then also this kind of linkages around the global saw that as the economic significance of this blog. and we keep hearing about the idea of expansion and which countries all potentially hoping all will be able to join of the french. great. and that's one of the central points of discussion here. and it looks very likely that some form of expansion is going to be approved by the leaders that in the us on that today. they're about 40 countries that have in pre expressed an interest and a couple of dozen that have formerly applied as

a to it's countries such as saudi arabia or argentina, cause ext on the democratic republic of congo in other countries from the around the world who are interested in joining the lock in order to re adjust their relationship also to the west. starting ravia, for instance, has always been very closely allied to the united states and is trying to loosen data lines to some extent. so yes, a large number of countries from the around the world who interested. all right, the, the liaison from tons front. thanks so much for that analysis. thank you for joining us. degrees now, which isn't during its 2nd major outbreak of 5 as the summer major blazes burning on the outskirts of athens, sending smoke across the capital and in the eastern everest region residence and hospital patients have been evacuated from fires by a boat on tuesday, emergency crews the found the bun, bodies of 18 people who are believed to be migrants. hundreds of

fine, fine does have been battling blazes across greece. before tuesday, 2 people have been reported date and to find find is injured in the dozens of fires . but the discovery of the 18 bird bodies, the alexander populace in the countries northeast, took authorities by surprise. the city is near the border with turn key. officials suspect the deceased may have been migraines. maybe a minute that would not read hearts of disappearances or missing residents from the surrounding areas. the possibility that these bodies belong to people who entered the country illegally as being investigated by that supposed to go to most greeks is 55 does have been stretched to the limits in the northeast so much so that athens has appealed to the e. u. for assistance, these remaining and rescue is just some of the international crews who have been called in to fight the flames. but gale force winds and temperatures of over 40
