the, the, you're watching the news coming to live from berlin. united states top diplomat takes his push for a gauze. the troops to israel is still a lot of work to be done. but we continue to believe that an agreement as possible, and indeed, essential. antony blinking, his meeting with the top is really officials as her last response to the proposed deal. also coming up on our show pockets. don prepares to vote in nationwide elections when we, campaigners from the party of former prime minister in wrong hon for being forced to run his independence after

a free election crackdown and air passengers face delays and cancellations, as move tons of ground staff and go on strike in germany, affecting hundreds of flights will bring you the latest from berlin, the clare richardson, welcome us secretary of state's preparing for a day of negotiations in israel as he searches for an agreement to a proposed cease fire deal for the war and gaza. anthony blake, and we'll discuss a mazda is reported the positive response to the draft plan brokered by the us guitar. and egypt and mediators are cautiously optimistic that as well could reach an agreement with some us, which carried out the october 7th to her attack. a full month's into the war mediations appear closer than ever to a breakthrough. after talks and casa,

the us secretary of state expressed optimism, this a lot of work to be done. but we continue to believe that an agreement as possible and indeed essential. and we will continue to work relentlessly to achieve it. ends in a blink and diplomatic mission continues in israel, where he's discussing the proposal with the is riley prime minister benjamin missing yahoo. it would include the release of hostages and guns in exchange for the release of palestinian prisoners by israel will not giving me any details from us. released the statement saying responded to the proposal in a quote, positive spirit. but it added that it was asking for a complete c spy, as well as the lifting of the gas sage. that seems hard to reconcile with the goal sees out by benjamin netanyahu. we won't total victory and not only the elimination of a mass, but also the elimination of its commanders and their heads. because they have the

pressure on nathan yahoo to secure a deal is high. israel has confirmed that 31 of the remaining hostages being held by homeless and gulf a dude. the army believes that around $100.00 hostages, a still alive, international diplomat. now, scrambling to secure the over 10, which means the face with one of the toughest tasks in this war, helping israel and home us find a middle ground. date of these correspondent rebecca renters is following that story for us from jerusalem. i asked her about lincoln's apparent optimism over this deal. are it clear that is certainly what we're hearing from the blinking tab . who arrived in israel last night? they did say of the most council offered to that deal just briefly, just as they were landing in could tell us today actually. and then they discussed that they mailing it over and then obviously they can, we'll be discussing that with the israelis here in israel today. as,

as you heard about pay says we're hearing from anthony blink, and he says he's cautiously optimistic if you will. but it's still quite a long way to go. the devil is in the detail, the framework, the lodge for um you know, the overall to you framework seems to basically have been agreed upon by both sides . but what we're saying with that must counter offer and we don't know many of the details is that they are still pushing for this time. and it says fire a complete withdrawal of israeli troops in order to fully agree and get on board. now that is something that israel and prime minister benjamin netanyahu has said absolutely no to. so whether or not anthony, blinking on the rest of the negotiating team, can really get the 2 sides to meet somewhere in the middle. still remains to be saying that it has to be said, these things then all over the line until they are over the line. no 100 percent. it's 0 percent. so welfare is cautious optimism. we could be some days, weeks off, and you know, the, so every opportunity that things could fall through, but certainly looking positive at this stage, we should know more in the coming days. and let's take

a quick look at and then you know, who's stance here. i mean, he has vowed to continue this war until total victory by which of course means wiping out from us. i'm curious whether you think this recent news of more hostage depths in gaza could affect his calculations. here. it was that's hard to say exactly whether or not that's going to affect these calculations, but he's coming under increasing pressure from the hostage families and an increasing number of his riley's who are demanding the return of the hostages. and that to competition, we could say with the demands of his own file, right? coalition, they are saying absolute victory. the end of him us will stop at nothing. and so you've got competing interest there amendment at yahoo certainly fighting for his own political survival trying to sort of balance those 2 accounts to objectives. but whether or not the, you know, this will change anything. obviously the news of more dead hostages put some more pressure on benjamin netanyahu. it certainly angles the as really popular

population and it certainly angles the hostage families has been demanding now for weeks and months that they do more that the government do more to try and get the hostages out. so the pressure is definitely ramping up, but you benjamin netanyahu, i don't think we will agree, or the government certainly want to agree to a complaint say as far as looking i said time and time again that they weren't do that. so you know, a pressure yes. but whether or not that will affect them, outcome certainly remains to be seen clear. and coming back to this proposal that blinking is hoping to secure what do you think it would take for israel to agree to this deal as well. both sides, obviously, in any negotiation, conte looked like they giving way too many concessions. and that's certainly something that israel is aware of. i'm sure it's something that her mazda is aware of. what is why they've come back with the counter proposal. again, it's ro, you know, as i said, benjamin netanyahu coming under increased pressure to see some kind of mean

a positive movement on this to see a release of some of these hostages will come some way to agreeing. they already have tacitly agreed to the framework put in place. so it is looking nicely. they would agree to unlimited say 5 to more a going into the gaza in return folder as hostages and to seek the release of some palestinian prisoners in exchange falls at the exact number of palestinian prisoners is not yet known. when the last deal was struck, the ratio was 3 to 13 palestinian prisoners for every hostage we could see uh something like that they agreed upon again. but i think the, the must side of the mounting for more now, you know, time is running out for them as well. they are losing their, losing the clouts of if they give up all the hostages, then what else did they really have the bargaining chip? so, you know, both sides still very far apart, even though we're seeing those positive signs exactly what israel will agree to will certainly only be something that they can sell to the domestic audience here

and also to the americans and keeping everyone on the side. and certainly something the benjamin netanyahu will only agree to something that he can sell to the far right members of his own policy. rebecca, thank you for bringing us up to speed there. that's the dw corresponded rebecca river is reporting from jerusalem to the relatives of some is riley hostages, have been taking part in protests against the delivery of aid at a key border. crossing into garza agencies a. the flow of supplies is already in sufficient to meet the needs of the hundreds of thousands, now displaced inside the territory with families and particularly young children during the brunt after 4 months of war. the prices of basic supplies, parents of young children need here have skyrocketed, diapers are running low and high prices mean many parents can't afford to buy them at all. while baby formula is hard to come by, a displaced mother says she's forced to feed her infant daughter ground rice and

biscuits. even though it's making her sick. for the most common knowledge that this is unhealthy for babies. so every note that it's causing intestinal distress floating in college, you can see she's like this around the clock and the crying non stop. the last week we had to take her to the alex, the hospital a full time. we know it's coming home, but nothing's available. so what can we do? so some women are now using close to replace diapers. when are you? how can i get dipoles? yeah, my husbands, unemployed, and get assistance. the spread of disease in refugee camps is creating an even greater need for medical supplies. some 85 percent of palestinians, and garza had been displaced since the start of the war in the doctor's warren, densely populated camps, post even a greater risk of illness for young children in the hottest,

the hottest deals. what we're now seeing going around is hepatitis a and we in the infection resulted from densely populated places due to the war and displaced people, intense scan all in as the heat. in the meanwhile, at israel's care, i'm show loan crossing with gaza is really protesters including far right groups and relatives of hostages, continue to block trucks of humanitarian aid. they are calling for deliveries to be halted until hostages held in gaza. are released well ahead from all of the country. apple staffing the tracks from getting in to guys that into the how much this is our mission and today we did it since duke tober 7 tier attacks almost all food production and gaza has been halted for many,

desperately waiting for trucks to arrive. humanitarian aid is the only lifeline. let's bring you up to speed now with some other world news headlines. the u. s. federal appeals court has ruled the former president. donald trump does not have them. unity from charges that he plotted to overturn his 2020 election defeat judges rejected trumps claim that he could not be prosecuted because the obligations relate to his presidential responsibilities. a spokesman for trump says he will appeal to decision. i feel sharper now than i do. you as president, jo biden's, immigration chief as narrowly escaped impeachment in the house of representatives. house republicans have targeted homeland security secretary alejandro my york us over a surge and illegal crossings across the us. mexico border 3 republican lawmakers cited with democrats to block the impeachment charges, and us investigators say a preliminary report shows that for crucial bolts were missing from the door panel

. the blue off of boeing 737 max 9 mid flight. the alaska airlines flight was forced to make an emergency landing in january. the planes were grounded, although most have been cleared to fly again by us aviation authorities and hundreds of flights in and out of germany's major airports have been cancelled as the ground staff of the country's biggest airlines go on strike. the walk out of live tons of workers follows the failure of the latest round of wage negotiations between the airline and the union, representing ground crews. around 100000 passengers are expected to be affected by the work stoppage scheduled to last until early thursday morning. this is the latest and a series of strikes in germany by staff at airline boss and rail surfaces in recent weeks. let's bring indeed these political correspondent, matthew mor joining us from berlin's international airport. so matthew,

i mean this is a nightmare for travelers, but presumably the ground crew are hoping for better working conditions by doing this, can you tell us a little bit more about what the 2 sides are arguing about of the yeah. all but a handful of flights really have been cancelled by the funds of today. and behind me, the scene is really quiet this morning. but the debate between workers and their bosses is interesting thoughts. union members, one a 12 percent p. rise for all 25000 of them. the basically, and that's why they've caused this warning. stripe, which is really a, as a way to flex their muscles and show their bosses how destructive a walk can be. and essentially the bolt for their part, the most is definitely an offer on the table and the offer on the table for 13 percent over 3 years. so some way short of what you usually into the minds of bosses said, essentially they're watching and a really tough internationally competitive environment. and ultimately, the said, the telling a strike of 27 hours on the stage, even before the issue,

the stations have begun. the said was in comprehensible they'll have to say living here in germany, it's certainly feels like there have been a lot of strikes in recent weeks. why are we seeing so many or yeah, i just say every time i wake up or every week, it seems like there's a new, slight cold. i'm not sure the because gemini is in a very tight spot. inflation is sky high. the company is in a recession, wages have fallen for for said in the past year. so for ordinary people are the work cuz every time they go to the shop, things are getting more expensive and the studies keep up with the rent too. and so ultimately you bought that combined with a labor shortage, which means that the usability have a really strong negotiating hon. i'm we see that because when they, when they are negotiating for, for, for the increases that they're, they're preaching really large increases at demands on the tables. and you see that as well clear when you look at union membership to union memberships in germany and

some sectors of the highest they've been since the mid 19 eighties. which only goes to show that they know that strikes are good for business because they can drive out their recruitment. but they're also really useful way of showing how destructive they can be for, for the, for the economy. and one economist actually side 0. this is really a movement of proof for germany's consensus driven relations, industrial relations management. and i think it's also, frankly, a moment of truth for germany, the 4th largest economy in the world. as to whether it can get a grip on, on this uh, on this economy on how to, to, to essentially make people feel like they're better off when they go to work. and when they give them a p rise. essentially. matthew, thank you for your reporting. that's our political correspondence, matthew more and people across pockets. don are preparing to hedge the poles in nationwide elections. but ahead of thursday's vote, independent monitors and human rights groups have questioned its integrity and credibility

among the biggest issues as a crackdown on former prime minister in wrong cons. political party as dw spanish of jaffa now reports. so it's one of the find those days of campaigning. the city of rob has been d 1st name up yet that his she's running for the seat in parliament or displacing an up back. she's a member of the p t. i bought the neck by farmer prime minister in rod han, but he's got a clean g and is borrowed from distinctive selection. the party has been effectively removed from the by the people and its members helping force to run as independent. the precinct i don't know of doing the gallons of something that just that every d r people are caught in center. she did was there, you know, as we are competing here, we will be followed by the pull this again up that down. you obviously don't want the beat the i is going to focus on the most popular parties. and with the con,

one of its most with depends on the emotions are running high at the home. so for support of the say the charges that got him g and were politically more debated and that there's a dumping against them. they are not allowing us to give you adult, allowed to display posters and banners the by all the bodies are allowed to do that . to you, but it's not an out loud good thing. i'm like raw data with us when we display banners, it died and few in the morning that taken over my fraud unknown people to get to that. so i have to do the door campaign. darcy, buck, sante, deacon's office. this is done by a known people because i think the skate of p d, i n, the 12 point bpi building at any cost that i say when got a con, sees the military is behind the crack down. but the part of these denied their targeting cod spotty. this is not the 1st time fox hunt oil fathers,

the military has been accused of election. midland cod himself is believed to have profited from it support when he became prime minister in 2018. but no, but they both have done last election. it was cons, opened and the boss cities who followed him says binge and back now with caught out of favor. the ministry staff to smith is believed to be back in should he. and despite the claims of the toner in defendants made me still believe in the father of did what, what's good in your or pin big thing to voting began make a difference. cuz you're basically the 2nd you're voting is the last 2 would be have to get to don't the or petition an injustice that we are facing. last a told we have i'm, i'm really hoping fingers crossed that our boards will make a difference and there would be transparency in the boarding process. focused on has been in for the ticket prices for the past 2 years. many are building that hold

on these elections as a way out of the credit, but if they could stay with me for more or less crossover too, as lama bottom, bring in a date of your reporter finish job. it who filed that report initially heard concerns about the integrity of this vote. will these elections unpackaged on be free and fair? um. okay. i do see a lot of disappoint bitch, especially if you speak to supporters of not hon. um, you would see that they said that they did park the buckets under the can solve was not given a level playing field to job been in this election. they said that the leader is in jail and declared that they were a decent jill on particularly more debated cases. they complained of a harassment against it pointed to go because of not being allowed to conduct public values. and it's not only to support us, human rights groups have expressed concerns of fitness, affliction, even un,

has expressed concerns over a, basically a batch and of a guests and of pro long to detentions of p d. does some of these does um put in the question the credibility of these elections and how will all this affects and run cons party in these elections? do you think it will affect the voter turnout? um, so i feel like party has already been dented. uh, the, their leader is in jail. the other senior leaders are also in the part of their elect. donald symbols was taken away, which means that as i've mentioned in by the board, the beat, the candidates candidates are basically running of independence though they are backed by the day. so they already had huge set facts before these elections. but having said that, i would say that when you speak to candidates of the i did, i actively participating in the election process they are urging their waters that

they must come out of 10 homes on the building day. they must go to building stations and vote and then actively participating in the criticize the state. and i would say that the state focused on the state because the community has denied all of these allegations that are laid out by p d. i. so they public public decides, but they're also very actively participating in the election process, which kind of get some optimism. um, uh, it's been difficult optimism in the whole election process and finish what about former prime minister? no, wasn't sure if he's seeking a return to office. could you please tell us more about him and his chances here? so yes, so now boss should, if he is boxed on former 3 time government and stuff, he has been in focus on the politics for decades and just before elections, he don't do pockets done. uh, he was out of focus on says in both excited all of the cases against him were

disqualified. and therefore, when you speak to journalists and focused on and even people on the streets, there is this feeling that this time focused on military establishment is back in nevada to these. and the varsity pin says, had a difficult history with bach defense military establishment. but this is focused on the politics a lot of a lot of, for, even in non hon. i just mentioned in my report, he's accused of making deals with them in a treat when he came to power in 2018. but this time, all eyes, i don't know if i should leave and he seems to be one of the most favorites candidates. thank you so much for your reporting. that's our finish shop and reporting from his lemme bond. and we have time to bring you up to speed with some other stories making world news. julia has declared 3 days of morning following the death of its former president sebastian kenyatta.
