the slide now dw document, the, this is the w news, live from berlin. russell looks at the assets north, korea for weapons. us media say that north korean leader kim jong, and will travel to russia for talks with vladimir putin. the 2 countries have so far denied that any north korean arms have been used in russia's war against ukraine. also coming up more vibrant boats leading to dijon, we made a man prepared to risk his life for travel to europe and a smuggler set to profit from the dangerous journey. and the african leaders gather

in nairobi for a summit aimed at finding climate change. we looked at how kenya is already leading the way by generating most of this power from the . i'm sarah kelly, welcome to the program. the us as the north korean leader, kim jong implants, to travel for rushed to russia for a meeting with president vladimir putin. at the top of the agenda, a potential deal to supply russia with ammunition for the war and ukraine. but the kremlin is refusing to confirm reports of any potential meeting. the north korea's military mines on full display celebration in july marketing ended the korean war. russian defense minister, so it gave show you stood side by side with the north korean president,

the parade in the capital p on yang made a big show of north korea's big spending nucular program. but what russia needs is most simple ammunition, notably artillery shells and anti tank missiles, as many as they can get. you officials estimate that russia had spies it around $50000.00 salary shells per day since inviting ukraine. international sanctions have limited most of those options to replenish it supplies. and so it appears to have turned to north korea shown yang, hold significant quantities of ammunition. the analysts are unsure about the quality of its stockpiles. but north korea can also offer role materials, particularly oh, which rustic can use to ramp up its own production of shells? another question for you crane's western allies is what russia might give in exchange. in the immediate term, food is

a top priority for appeal yang use of cobra. deluxe downs and strangling sanctions . have left many north koreans. on the brink of famine of south korea. suspects russia has offered to hold the joint naval drills with china and north korea. a mirror to the annual exercises held between south korea and the united states. but many also see a russia may offer advanced technologies that could be used to the young young's new caleb program. a prospect that would violate over a dozen un sanctions. so if north korea were to supply russia with more weapons, what impact could that have on the battlefield in ukraine? i put that question to marina myron, a military analyst from king's college london. have given the fact that um, raska is under sanctions and russian economies being the fact that the production of shells is also difficult for russia also due to lack of western components.

therefore, it was easy situation for russia and make it possible for them to use as many shells as they normally would to keep opposite fire pressure on the ukrainian forces. i don't think it will be a significant shift in terms of what is happening on the battlefield because that is only one small part of the equation. however, i think the consequences of this particular collaboration between the 2 countries is much more far reaching on the global scale. and what it means for is the global balance of power. if the likes of china, russia and most korea conduct military exercises to gas or so, i think we need to think here be on ukraine. how's that will affect the international or the, or as i was marina meyer and speaking with me earlier, here are some other stories making news. the world food program is cutting a to, to 1000000 napkins. blaming a mass of short fallen funding. 8000000 people in afghanistan are now cut off from

food support. the united nations is raising the alarm over, shrinking a warning of a catastrophe. it supplies are not increased by phone. hick way has been making land fall in south east china. heavy rains and floods have submerged agricultural land. thousands had been evacuated from their homes. schools remain closed in some areas. authorities say the 5 people are missing after a fire truck plunged into a river. organizers of the burning man festival in nevada have reopened to the roads leading out of the site, allowing revellers to leave thousands were stranded for days by heavy rains and mud . the nearest highway is down and 8 kilometer dirt track its head down to the mediterranean, where the number of my friends crossing to europe is higher than it has been in years so far this year. and more than 140000 people have survived the perilous

journey and on no number have died. one hot spot country for departures is tunisia . from there, the journey usually goes to the islands of land, producer, or sicily. the eu has pledged hundreds of millions of heroes to help the canadian government stop people from making the crossing. but so far without much affect it up. he was young. philip schultz and my book up to deer report from sax into nisha, which is the main departure point for migrants. nobody in the lobby has been fishing out of this harvard near sparks for more than 20 years. he says things change this spring. that's when they started seeing boats full of people heading for europe. when the weather is bad, the fishermen try to warrant them to turn back spot. he says, they hardly ever do. as a said guy get them, we keep finding bodies in the sea and they get tangled in our fishing nets. but we call the coast guard when that happens, unless people,

yukon with cause it is also the staff people just like us to be $790.00 level to someone had to you. most of the people who tried to cross the mediterranean to get to europe said all from this region more than 2000 people are known to have died in the attempt. sometimes local authorities have trouble collecting all the bodies that wash up on the beach. along the coast, thousands of people wait for their place on a boat so, so it's suddenly just from booking a file so he knows how dangerous it is. but says he's determined to try to get to europe whenever he says he's good at repairing electrical appliances. simply sheet, my only hope is to get across the sea to your well, i'm doing everything for my mom be the so i want her to be a bit happy for the 1st time and her life. in boot point. uh, that is heavy. when boats sink the coast guard often bring survivors to this

hospital. dr. robbie hung, dolly says recently, it's felt like a war zone. when it was you uh, faded, we simply get too many people coming at once. we don't have enough doctors and nurses to take care of everyone, so we are short of everything, the medicines and equipment on this new little money. it's more than we can manage for those whose plans are still intact. the focus is on preparation and securing a spot on a boat. the smuggler networks which stretch across the region have arrived here in fox. one smuggler is prepared to talk to us as long as we don't film his face. and it's sometimes other people when i only do the job to make money with them. and everyone wants to make lots of money home, but we take the migrants to europe. what they do next is up to them. often they'll squeeze 40 people into a small boat trip like that would earn them around $40000.00 heroes. they're not

the only ones profiting. i need to ship, you know, i'm a $1000.00 people control the whole beach area. okay, so i guess some of our guys have direct connections with the retail security purposes. and then what does that be? the, the, the some of the best they will tell us when it's safe for a crossing. is we pay up to $10000.00 euros for the service, but if you have where he lives, he made a suit, doesn't care who profits from his trip. he still has to earn a few 100 zeros with jobs and sucks. then they'll have enough to get on a boat and take his chances. un secretary general antonio good ted edge has urged the international community to help make africa a renewable energy superpower. he was speaking in the kenyan capital nairobi where leaders from across africa are discussing the transition to green energy production at the continents 1st climate summit, kenya is calling for

a solutions oriented approach. it says africa has an unparalleled opportunity to benefit from the fight against global warming. if there is sufficient investment to unlock as potential can you already as a front runner on the continent when it comes to renewable energy sources, a steam rising in our car, you can use largest geothermal power plant located in the rift valley. northeast of nairobi, the water vapor is $300.00 degrees hot, as it comes out of the ground, it drives turbines that produce electricity. all carriers being financed in part with money from germany, state own investment and development bank. last year, the 2 countries launched to climate, an energy partnership, their common goal to combat climate change and expand renewable energy. just based on the by kenya, the special thing about kenya compared to other countries,

is the easy accessibility to renewable energy or a bubble. and there's a huge amount of geothermal energy and normally we have come close to tapping is full potential. and that it's something new. every country in africa has a view to me is a, is also geothermal energy accounts for 45 percent of kenya's electricity production . in the early 19 eighties, the country began producing energy with hot steam in all korea. before that can you relied on hydro electric power. the country has vast renewable energy sources, wind, water, solar, and geothermal power. for this reason, nairobi has focused its efforts on green energy. around 90 percent of kenya's power is generated from renewable power sources. that's more than twice the share in germany. many people here are fond of solar power which can help to save money. this farmer put solar panels on his roof 2 years ago.

yes, the d was complete. bob block out for 2 days. the most of my read it to me at the top of what i'm going to. yeah. you're on beta pumps. i had to what else was 30 years ago, only 3.5 percent of canyons have access to electricity today. around 3 fourths of the population has power, but it's not reliable yet. the grid is at its limits. blackouts are a regular occurrence. one of the logic problems, he's also upgrading the existing infrastructure because it was not designed for renewable energy generation. and so i think that needs to be huge investment to make a 100 percent renewable energy future possible. can ya needs help with developing its energy infrastructure? many african countries cannot tackle this challenge alone. africa's 1st climate summit. one of the goals is also to gain access to investors. kanyes plan is to

double down on geothermal power. by doing so, it aims to generate 100 percent of its power from renewable energy sources by 2030 . so those are the developments in kenya. they're when it comes to the green energy transition generation. i spoke with the in term director earlier of the agricultural development arm of the bill and melinda gates foundation, enough to kava, i asked him what he hopes to see come out of the 1st african climate summer. so this is the story. as i made, i think the president of kenya is being not to collecting the needs very, very clearly. i think the main difference here is that they have quite in the this side made as an action summit. and i had did loud and clear so the about making new investments all is not about making new announcements, but it is now about how do we put everything else into action. and what that means,

you know, for us, it is focusing more on the application. i know there's been a lot of emphasis on mitigation when you do that, but i think we can much ignore the actual realities of small de, from us. we'll say to 80 percent of the population. and right now k. yeah is by the 5 feet tall. and for 4 consecutive seasons, a day had been having droughts. okay, so for us action would the main, how do we work on the car and you know, fissions in the crop satellites, doping, digital, and make sure that we are quickly going back to a foot, stick you. what can you? this is a quick reminder of our top story is here on dw news, the us says that north korean leader kim jong one expects to meet with president vladimir putin in russia to discuss providing laska with arms the pair last met in 2019 the coming up next month, either easiest, asia,

india is opposition parties team up to defeat the rent, remote is b, j p. but can they put their differences aside before next year's election? the rush banners, he has all that more and dw news agent to stay with us. if you can so it's one of the website, the w dot com or in social media at the w news. i'm sarah kelly and berlin. thank you so much for watching. take care the . every jenny is far less surprises. we've gone all out to give you some of the right people in your northern most count the police the.
