from bricks, nations hold for the 2nd day of best summits in south africa, the wells major emerging economies say that they are being held back by rich west and countries and wants to expand that alternative alliance. the money futures. mccain welcome to the program in just a few minutes time. india will attempt to become the very 1st country to line the spacecraft on the moon's south pole fees come dry on 3 will shortly attempt to touch down and begin exploring our showing you live images here from inside the control room at india space agency. there are some animations of the expected landing. this is indeed a 2nd attempt at a lunar landing and comes on the days of to

a similar russian croft craft trying to reach the same region. it is thought that the moon south pole contains ice and if the landing succeeds, a solar powered rover will explore the surface for 2 weeks is a look at india's ambitious noun mission. 3010. or the chon dray and 3 spacecraft successfully launched in mid july off to great fun facts across india and the wind to weld the last week. the indian space was such organization confirmed that land had separated from its propulsion section, which had carried it close to the moon. now its hopes that landa code victrum will make you control to touch down new the moon, south pole. but that's no easy feat. up in 4 years ago was similar indian mission

ended up in a crash landing, which is cutting deadly the would not give off on it space on positions and quickly launched. it's the lunar attempt until a few days ago, it was in a race against the russian spacecraft to reach the moon 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 priceless commodity. and that will show ice and that could support a future noun to cause any 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. cock. and joining me for more on this is all science reports and so she made sat around the cushions, me so thanks so much for being with us. still 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 some dry on to which feed and it's 40. i was uh, 40 b as a possible attention since the launch happened. and of course, the nita, bye thing, last 15 minutes. i think people are crazy. they really want this to soft line if would be historic, right? 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 perhaps essentially we haven't had a moon landing almost every mission that tried to land in the morning for a photo of the last 5 missions failed, including the tundra on to a new not 25. 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 that 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 russian 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 simple salon softly. but tundra too, we had similar problems where it was supposed to land gracefully,

but instead moments before it was suppose to line, it just hard, crushed. so this is because in the last minute when it's supposed to line it's on the most, it's not know what 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, a small sphere like it's like if i were to jump onto the surface of the bottom, she was what slow me down. because the most feel drags me up, but we don't have enough must 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 us cope to conduct scientific experiments on this basis. additionally, the south also has out or is set to have a lot of ministers and metals, which i've read. and if we do find them, we get to know a little better about the origins of this or last 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 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 city and schumann 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. south vs in zimbabwe, costing the ballast as the country elect to new parliament, local governments, and most importantly, a president. it's only the 2nd general election of to the death of roosevelt mcgarvey, who dominated zimbabwe and politics for decades. incumbent lita m, as in the non gadbois from the power falls on a policy, is seeking a 2nd to him. he's been challenged by nelson jimmy's who's making a 2nd attempt to run for president and bob friends rise before the thumb because they've done this after 2 decades of economic chaos and inflation, country around 100 percent, people are impatient, so things to change. the mess up with us in our business because i move in. so we need something good to help me kind of towards edit

g d mall gave me most news you want some such and such. and bob with you tired of a busy odds with a stop. 6 the 2 key candidates facing off in this general election incumbent president monk vile from this on a piece of property 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 says his government has created stability, an economic opportunities in zimbabwe. the, the, the,

the, the category one of every fours and bob vince is out of, you know, work in tone is pledging economic growth less corruption and a more intensive country to try to. 7 these promises resonate with the countries you. some of them will be voting to the for the full time to middle collide with the, i'm appealing with the authorities to hear the cries and address our concerns. we're not being cold 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 place future. let's take a look now. some of the other headlines making use around the world and rescue is,

is actuated more than 100000 people in pakistan's, eastern putting chap province. because the flooding authorities are blaming a release of water upstream in india. so they reco assessing high water residents of being one, but more expecting rain could make situation even worse in the coming days. and the building and central moscow has been damaged. often the russian capital was attacked by drones over night. as the 6 nights in a row, moscow apples were temporarily closed. the russian defense ministry said 3 drones had been detected. 2 was shot down while a 3rd was electronic to be disabled. the kremlin is blaming ukraine for the attacks . the. the now lead isn't the breaks group of nations all into the 2nd day of meetings in johannesburg. they using the summit to demand changes to international institutions. the heads of government of brazil, china, south africa and india, as well as russia's foreign minister,

a talking about expanding the book and using a currency other than the us dollar to reduce the western economic dominance, the group has set itself the goal of increasing the political ways of countries from the global south in international affairs and the russian president vladimir person is not present present in johannesburg. but he is taking pos in the summit by video link in an address to the delegates. he said russia wants to end the war. that quote, has been unleashed by the west and it's satellites and ukraine. all actions in ukraine are guided by only one thing to pose 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 or dw correspondent uria russia. so has more on what president person said in his speech. as i think such of works are the most important message supporting the parts to it that we just had. but putting himself because he's most important goal ease on seems to be to show that he is an isolated and to, to meet the supports. also sounded like a kind of justification that putting himself countertops take part in the summit. it sounded as if he wanted to convince 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 if the positions that the prospect is waging the war and ukraine, which from his perspective is exactly the opposite. so in his opinion that the west is waging war against the russia ukraine. so put in just turn to the table. this is

an old, tactical of the criminal to take requisitions against ross and to blame to us 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 of china yesterday. for example, putting all the dimensions of his address, the great agreement from the trash or something withdrew at who is to blame according to putting you. granted not to the best, no trasha. i just need to be easier. aver shesta reporting that now at your ross does the in the united states has managed to pull off a tool to she gave us to a baby without any spots. the baby c major off was born at a private zoom in the state of tennessee. the animals, a very rarely born without the characteristic spots which says that is camouflage, according to local media at the last record it spotless true. ralph was born in a zoo in japan and that was more than 60 years. okay.

and that's all we have time coming up next. we've got a don't film for you about the coin and lost in america. i many kids mckinnon. thanks so much for being with us. the now jerry is here, mauritania is here on mark track. we know is this one of the great drains and the grim reality the sahara was hell, i swear. what remains? i just want to be for the house on the edge of this a hard on the last shelter start september, 2nd on dw.
