fence. that as you can imagine, it is a bit of and it just to go if it, because the migraines 1st need to be registered before they can relocate. some of them are little bit frustrated. they say they've been waiting for days before they can get registered and then moved from here. they are being ferried to sicily and then from they distributed to different parts of it. to me, we have spoken to people on the ground, the, the, the forty's, the, the volunteers at this is something that is really overwhelming. if this is the kind of work that they have not had to do at this scale at this level, in a lot of his people saying that they've never seen anything like this from the day that the started, we understand that people are still arriving. people came by boat overnight, it's a little bit quiet this morning, but there was already a lot of processing to be done. one official said to me, he was at least hoping for the window to pick up a little bit because that would mean that the conditions that see what slow people from coming just so that they could relieve the if it's yeah, before more people come and overwhelm the island. what is it the residence of land
12:12 pm
producer has it i feel about the arrival of people on migrant vessels to the items of the so some of the migrant. c. i have told us that they had sent it out onto the island. uh, they are meant to stay within this facility, ideally behind that fence, but as we've seen, some are climbing over and, and getting around some of told us that there isn't really enough food that they're getting. yes. so they've been going out to try and see if they can get food and they say they've met locals who have been more than happy to assist them with food . of course we know that there are many who would be afraid um, we've not necessarily spoken to them just yet. we but pretty much come to what is being called the hot spots, talking to people here. but it seems as though those who've gone out to get help from the locals have been given that to them. i have to point out the of that. and i was also surprised to hear from the migrants that they felt they've been really well treated. yeah, they compared to the conditions that they were experiencing into nicea and in libya out way most of them are coming from and they really have expressed how well they've been received by the officials who are helping to process them. yeah.
12:13 pm
christine, what about the use response to that produces plead for assistance. pablo at the moment, this is really the if it's uh that we're seeing here only by the titans. we've not seen any sort of in you officials. of course. the awesome. uh yeah, the frontier uh photo god, officials who we've seen one or 2 walking around you. but for the most part, this is an italian operation, and we have not quite seen yet how and what resources are there to be coming through from the institution of the european union and for about the member states . but as we are seeing it right now, this is soley, an italian, if it's migrant and i'll be relocated to any other country they've been relocated and distributed, it's other parts off. se, thanks for reporting chris. they did a new corresponding christine mcguire in law producer. so it's been one year since gina mazda, i mean, he died while she was in police custody in around her death,
12:14 pm
sparked anti government protests across the country. but the lack of women's rights in around the demonstrations of quite. and i'm now books, anger at the countries, authors, harry and government, and the security forces brutality are still widespread. that's certainly true for the family members of one protest or a ledge. he was tortured to death by intelligence officers last october for participating in demonstrations. after months of harassment by police, his sister rad laughed around for germany, where she met with you to be a reporter. honda nigi to tell her story of family torn apart by the rainy and security forces rod alpha to he and her brother ron mean were close. siblings, now he's dead and she has fled to germany. it says maggie, nothing is harder than the death of a brother. she. there is nothing. nothing in the wild card at the death of a brother, especially a brother who was tortured down to 40. he tells us she didn't learn of her
12:15 pm
brother's fate for days, because she, along with her other brother victoria, had also been detained by security forces. fiction mental good. one of them dropped me and threw me into my daughter's bedroom. yet another person came and put something to my head. i think it was a weapon. i'm not sure. he said, i'll kill you right here. no one will hear your voice. then he said, i swear to god. if you answer few questions and don't make a scene or release your brothers, i trusted in god. i trusted that was as a soon as they put me in because they blindfolded me. and madison tied my hands and threw me on the floor of the call on a pad guides and kept them watching. while she was in custody, her brother, ron mean, allegedly succumb to injuries inflicted by his jailers. that's what the family believes. the government claims he took his own life, brought i had no idea of her brother was dead until she was released. i saw
12:16 pm
my mother wearing the black scarf. my mother had never worn a black scarf before. huck to an off to cut them. why are you wearing this? said it to. she said, it's nothing. i asked again, i'm sorry i missed while you wearing a black scoff. she said rom and my dad and my my mother used to wait for rahman in the mornings to come so that they could have breakfast together. yes. how could i consult? i know, how could i tell her that a child is no longer with us? she sits there in the mornings and says, i had to do about my hot lecture. i thought rahman had come back and so long to get to the bedroom. i've been under vicki, i've done wrong me nobody for 9 months after her brother's death, security forces rated rotter's home. she decided to flee the country, taking with her nothing but the clothes on her back. she misses the family, she left behind 10 or my only wishes to go back, but to go back to iran, i guess. but for now,
12:17 pm
ronald believes it's too dangerous to return home. that springing yelled as r dash, who lives leads dw, as far as the service which produce that report yelled at great to see. so this is a heart breaking story and it appears to be partial of a pattern. tell us more. so it is indeed a pablo. unfortunately it is a pattern and on both ways. it is a pattern that young protesters who have been detained. that's the, that they die in prison under torture. of course, based on the republic tries everything to prevent this, this information to get outside. so they, they, once you know, the, and in some cases say it was suicide and other cases they say it was a heart attack. and in this case, as we, we've seen, got a father, he was telling us very of her very heartbreaking story. it is very,
12:18 pm
very common that relatives, family members are and are put under pressure are summons. and you have to imagine you, your son or your daughter gets, gets killed for protesting. and then you, uh, or other, uh, the siblings will get the rest that as well or yourself. so they try everything to silence people. and um right now, especially with the gina my son, he needs a new grocery i have in the last 4 weeks there has not been a single day where we have not been reporting about arrest off uh, relatives and family members of the, of the killed protesters and gina, so many so father has been summoned and he has been born not to come up, not to come in rates, her doctors anniversary. her uncle has been detained and we don't even know where
12:19 pm
he is. so this is also, there has been and 7 women rights activists in the northern proteins of the long who have been arrested 4 weeks ago. and so the, the actually really, it's kind of a crack down honors of civil activists in their homes. and many more of these stories we've heard are radians in exile complained that they don't feel safe in other countries, including here in germany either which is incredibly shocking. what evidence is there though, that the reigning and security service is intimidating or trying to silence or radians and ag? so yes they do. um, it is a big, it is a big uh, threats actually. um that not only active us, but also uh you rang and journalists are being threatened in germany outside of iran, anywhere. and anyone who is trying to, you know,
12:20 pm
to make aware of what is happening in the country and they get threats. they gets threats by the violence, intelligence and be it's why uh, why your messages, what's up messages for instance, or their family is being put on the pressure. and iran, for instance, tell us about the german authorities and how seriously they've been taking what you've just been telling. well, i think they, it's hard to say, i mean, i think they do take it serious and at least they are aware of it. but there is not really much action that has been taken to prevent this. and on the other hand, it's also not really clear what the can do. um, but they, they send out also a warnings. not only about about the threats also about cyber espionage, for instance, and fishing on a, on a range and activists. and yeah, and do your position outside of your bottle. so thanks you all, do you all those
12:21 pm
r dash data over use farsi service. thank you. let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world. us officials say ukraine's president of the mirrors, the landscape is expected to visit washington dc. next week, the trip comes as congress considers president biden's request for an additional $24000000000.00 and military aid and humanitarian aid for keep the landscape last visit to us. in december 2022, north korean leader came john on has visited an aircraft factory in russia as far east as he continues his trip to the country. russian officials gave came a tour of the site where some of russia's most advanced fighter jets are produced. came met with president pollutants earlier this week. and former spanish football
12:22 pm
federation had reese, who realises, appearing in court in the spanish capital madrid over his now infamous kissing of jennie, fed him also after spain's world cup final when he's facing sexual. busy allegations over the case can be alice who find me, resides this post on sunday after a storm of criticism and says it was consensual at most so as repeatedly denied that it was well for more than this were joined by samara hunter in barcelona summer is a sports, journalist and presenter at spain league a tv samara. great to see you. so today's hearing is taking place behind closed doors. what's expected to come out of this corner? parents to well, hopefully will hear something in the coming hours if by the end of the day as to what exactly they are talking about. but what we do know is that he had to show up to the national courts earlier this afternoon earlier this morning. sorry, and he has had to speak to the judge and give his side of the story unexplained from his point of view. what exactly happened?
12:23 pm
he has been accompanied by a lawyer who will also be carrying the burden of this conversation for today. but i imagine that what he will be doing is saying basically the saying that he's been saying all the long he's been very consistent and defending himself and defending his owner and saying that he is in his sins and claiming that there was consent even a journey and most of has repeatedly said that there wasn't, he's continue to state that he doesn't understand what he has done wrong because he doesn't believe that he hasn't the facts on anything wrong. so imagine he will continue to explain everything that he's already publicly been saying over these last few weeks. of course, his job will be to convince the judge that in fact he is innocent because otherwise he could find himself in some very, very severe trouble. because this is a case that has been looked at as a possible crime as an active sexual regression which according to the law, this is seen as such, of course, will have to be proven in this particular case. if he's found guilty, he could be up to, he could find himself with, with a fine or anywhere up to 5 years in prison. so it's not just the fact that we're
12:24 pm
talking about the case itself. there is a matter of coersion as well as it supposedly relates to him trying to convince jenny and most of to appear in an apology video because he knew that he needed her support in order to try and save his job. so there are various things that are being looked at here and he understands, i imagine the severity of the situation with and he find himself right now. in the summer, the entire spanish women's football team has been essentially on strike, an attempt to continue their boycotts, even though it will be alice has resigned. so could you explain the reasons behind this decision to absolutely one of the main reasons that they feel is the more structural changes need to happen. it's not just about these really others. it's not just about what i have in the who is the head coach of the women's national team since 2015 who also has been sacked and is no longer part of the federation. they want more, they want changes that are deeper, more meaningful. and what's being wiley reported here in spain is that 2 of the main things that they are still demanding be changed. are the removal of under the
12:25 pm
outcomes, which is the secretary general, he's seen as the right hand man of use ruby alice. he was the one who by the way, it's set for that incredible request to you, a for, to have the federation suspended from any european competition as a way to threaten the spanish government and trying to defend those will be honest . it's also said that he is the one who was very difficult and firm in the stance of defending jorge the back in the day whenever the 15 women put forward the email a year ago. and really did not want to try and negotiate or listen to anything that they had to say when raising their concerns. so they want him gone. and another thing is that they want the communications department looked at. they weren't consequences there as well. because according to denny or most, so that statement that was immediately released in the aftermath of the case by the federation. she never said any of those words. and so she is saying it was completely made up by the federation. so they are asking for more changes because i think they understand that this is a now or never a moment if they don't get what they want. now,
12:26 pm
perhaps it's never going to happen for them at another point in time. and the next step, what they, yes, was speaking on wednesday, and she pretty much alluded to this fox, she said, we are not going to stop fighting. we are going to keep pushing. we not just for ourselves, but for future and future generations of boys and girls. as well, we need to make sure that women are respected, that they are valued and these kinds of things do not continued to happen. so it seems as though even though i'm going to say to me, the new coach is meant to give a score this later this afternoon at 4 pm. the time in spain, we're not entirely sure that they're actually going to accept that call up. and samara you'll be, i'm sure following every moment for us am during the summer hunter in barcelona. thanks. thank you. have you ever wondered what it looks like when a star is born? well, you're about to get eclipse. this is a new image released by nasa. it was taken by the web telescope and it shows a new born star, which will eventually grow into a star similar to our own. so it's important to remember, of course,
12:27 pm
that's what's considered new, born in the lifetime of a star, and then amounts to a huge span of time for us humans. this baby star is already tens of thousands of years old. it's all right, you're up to date up next complex. so with tim, sebastian interviewing former nato's former at deputy supreme allied commander for you. that's after short break. take care. the
12:28 pm
answer is the conflict. so i worry about the will of the west to continue to do what needs to be done. strong was from, i guess this week today says former deputy supreme to monitoring your image and sure there's a lingering feel that somehow we can go back to some sort of space as close to process that is not going to happen to happen. conflict
12:29 pm
next on dw, to the point, strong opinions, clear position, international perspective. ukraine says it's counter offensive is making game with autumn, approaching the clock is ticking. and meanwhile, russia is also facing graves shortages. could north korean holster rushes military, find out on to the point to the point? in 60 minutes on d, w, the in many countries education is still a privilege. property is one of the main causes some young children walk in minecraft. instead of going to class others can attend classes, the minions of children of the world. and
12:30 pm
we ask, why? because education makes the world make up your own mind. made for mines the i worry about the will of a west to continue to do what needs to be done. strong words from my desk. this week they thought was full, the deputy supreme commander of your so richard sheriff, there is still in your, among european countries a lingering feel that somehow we can go back to some sort of states as quote and to with russia side is not going to happen so what does he think will happen? so the lobbying prospect soon, the focus is allowed wake up cool to york, the american general. so richard sheriff, welcome to come.
