of the and tell them entirely as does it make a difference. do people have to change their minds? well, the of, of admin majority of the deputies is supporting the volume. these are in these videos because they say put in is, are there any me you rush or has to be afraid of him? they have to help the opposition and this is the majority, but the means that the bottom it has to do that limited. they also need the institutions in brussels like that you commission and then of course, the member states that are deciding upon sanctions and that actually deciding on foreign policies. so it's, it's a show of support here. but if the parliament such as not very powerful in these methods, and of course the problem is also asking to blame, put in himself for the desk of the valley and try to him out some sanctions talk to him and the possible perpetrators. and, but in the end it, it's,

it's upon the member states to do more and not i need published a list of 6000 people in russia that is supporting the put in economically and in this alleged mafia sore, co, only 1100 uh, under sanctions as of now, so there's lots of things that could be done and we have to wait and see if in the next weeks the member states about to take up this and, and, and act on it also depending of cause on the so called the elections and in russia coming up in march, that would be also a, maybe a, it's a chance to talk about russia and to do something about russia. again, you are a 2nd of all these funeral. it will be held on friday in most count. what can you tell us about this? are all the don't have that so many details guy, how to we have known for about the on and now for a while except of all his press,

secretary, kira yar, most of that has been dealt like see will be buried on friday at noon at the body in the cemetery, which is a district as district district of most go, sorry, as a real bad child to ceremony before the funeral. it's supposed to be a small ceremony that is allegedly the condition of the rational socrates. according to media reports, are they also a gave to the same condition on the he's a mazda a few days ago, at originally or initially, and of all his colleagues wanted a lodge of ceremony, so that as many people as possible could to pay their last respects to hate him, but they will, unable to find a proper hold for it. also, the ceremony was originally supposed to take place tomorrow says the box tomorrow president put in, we will div speech to the nation yury um nevada . you also mentioned that that funeral might not be entirely peaceful. what can you

say about that? as well as you know, minus the speech level, starting to not have a major impact on the outcome of the election in 2 weeks time. uh well, today's speech is unlikely to have a major impact in putting this popularity uh, his personal but collaborative ratings. uh, so currently around 65 percent of the round, 80 percent of russians are generally satisfied with these policies. this is data from the independent research institute, live august 10th, and i don't think that the bill change much. often today's session of the requirement, i suppose menu will not even have had to box and brought to the speech. the day was a strong signal of support for all of those and russia who don't agree with what you may put into policies, and that this, at least of the remaining 20 percent, which is 20000000 people. the problem is that many people in russia tradition, the do not go into the balls and their votes, don't decide to the outcome of the election. nevertheless, for those who still can see the loss of to be a europe and country,

what we're going to be in values. this was a powerful symbol today. however, if we probably not have any concrete, practical consequences for us and politics, all the induction in russia, you re re say to the in riga, i'm validated in strasburg. thank you both very much. you're watching a dw news. let's come to a, some of the news now. israel and how moss, i've played down the chances of an imminent deal for a seas. 5 in gauze of the 2 sides of pushing back off to you as president joe biden said, a truce couldn't begin next week. well to alex continue, human italian agencies will on the 8 operations and gaza could collapse of as well advanced into rough off when any 1400000 palestinians or sheltering the. now the main un agencies setup to assist palestinian refugees on rum is facing a cash crisis or not has said it will run out of money in the coming days of the

major. don't a nation suspended the funding? the phrase came off to israel, said that some of the workers were involved in the october 7th turbo tax. now the agencies future is at stake and leaving long term, assuming that terry and aid for cause i indulged a lifeline for goldens or how mazda has partner in terror. this is a question dogging to you as palestinian 8 agency and donor countries seem to have answered it for themselves by holding back funds. that puts more than a 1000000 people at severe risk. for decades, the agency has been a primary source of food and medicine for thousands. grow was founded in 1949 to help palestinians who fled or were expelled from their homes when israel was founded. it originally had a 3 year mandate, but has been renewed ever since. since there has been no political solution to the

conflict. agencies, operations have been especially vital for gardens since israel's 2007 blockade of the territory. it also serves palestinian refugees in the occupied westbank, syria, lebanon, and jordan, a. but many in israel take a different view. oh, this is jerusalem's deputy mayor, calling get out, get out at a small, far right protest. people this demonstration want the agency to leave the region entirely. israel has claimed that 12 monroe workers health plan, the october 7 tier attacks, and that many agency workers are affiliated with homeless or other tier groups and gaza. prime minister benjamin netanyahu says he's no future for the agency. i knew the civil administration of god, so i won't be able to be carried out by those who support or fund turner. what this

means do that we will have to replace on rock the un has pushed back firing to 12 workers in question and saying they don't represent the agency that we are doing everything possible to make sure that to the old. what is an organization that not only is effective and necessary, but it is also able to defend itself against a few patients that's can put into question. it's not valid to us intelligence assessment of israel's claims that some of the accusations were credible, though they could not be independently verified, but also cast out on claims of wider links to militant groups. it's unclear the report will change the stance of donor countries or what could take on roads place . a dries up, it will be ordinary gardens who suffer. so during the turbo tax,

october 7th, almost killed in tip. not. not only is there a nice boss, people of all the nationalities to be the biggest group of from nationals, was from thailand. most of them had been working on the farms near the board of wisconsin. officials say each time i go to workers are still being held hostage. many of them come from the north east of thailand from the wood on tiny regions. the w scale motus travelled that to speak to survivors, and the families still waiting for their loved ones to be freed. just a few centimeters take up a whole hour. how making carpets with the neighbors helps coming to them now passed the time. sick with worry. now hasn't been able to work since how much terrorists kidnapped her son more than 140 days ago. are the only visitors to her tailor shop these days, all local officials inquiring about her situation. so of course it's a lot of pressure. i can't breast i can't eat. i think about my son all the time.

i'm constantly wondering how he is. i was told that they only get a blanket, and i'm sure they don't sleep because they are so anxious. i'm wanting to know and require that. like many ties, her eldest son goes in israel, working for a farm or the 1000 bureaus. he owned a month help the family back home company. let him now bought this tractor for the family farm with the money her sons. and she says he continued working in israel despite knowing it was dangerous. so a little he's actually experienced a similar situation before. died. 2 people were killed right in front of him when they were hiding in the shelter during another attack. stop the whole lot. when i told him to come back, but he said it was normal, they're all i do in the neighboring village. this families were united. a new shot on gal was released of the 50 days of captivity. the money he on from for years

working in israel helped him buy a house and set up a chicken farm. but he says he will never forget the morning of october, 7, t 2, the band man would have been by line and they put us in an empty house for about an hour initially and then moved us to the tunnels. they know they won't, they hurt us badly, especially the 1st 2 to 3 days. so a long time ago, we were only given bread and water just enough to survive. let's say i counted the days by meals. otherwise, we just lay on the ground is less than the way to meet the non these are the other type workers he was held hostage with on the day of their release. one of them is from the same village has come to him now some talking to his mother. it gives her hope that the most dangerous part may already be behind to me on the day of the kidnapping. there with a total of 5 tie. what goes to what they can captive, but the call could only fit for more people with a low to be executed. one right,

the load by better wages than they can get at home. tens of thousands of time nationals, especially from this remote region walking east. right. they're able to do so because of an agreement between the 2 countries. but officials like the town may or feel the government should do more to protect. so it's included id, football fan, couple mileage welcome. it's my personal opinion on that. if it is up to the individual way, they want to go into that. they are the ones who take a risk of a high end. the ones who benefit from the last with the see day and that the government should provide adequate information about risk signs publishing this and that so that people can make an informed decision not to have to hold it upside for more than one. now, the labor agreement with israel has been suspended for the time. be many people here would now rather go to taiwan or south korea for work comedy. let me now says she wants her son to stay in thailand when he finally returns. she's bought some

capital and land for him. the rice in these fields will be ripe and about a month. she hopes he'll be back home in time for the harvest. now that's across the jakarta where we can speak to w is a pacific build safety of mazda is, will follow this report for us, get pretty intense situations that for the families. how of ties whose loved ones are still being held hostage by how most coping as i'm starting to get out. i would really say is one of the big problems for these families because they told me uh, most of them told me it's very hard for them to get any kind of information about their loved ones from ty oh, authorities. and then you really have to see the, the big picture here. these are families in the remote poorer part of the country of thailand who have sent their sons with sent their fathers up rock for many years,

often to send money back to the family. and they put opportunity over security they enough and they, they knew the risk as we've seen in the report. and now they pay a really high price for it. now we'll do a tie, official se could actually help in the release of the hostages. at the end of last year, there was a delegation from a muscle of minority policy and thailand who travelled 3 wrong a to negotiate directly with almost for the release of 10 hostages. and that was successful. i was able to meet in the type argument with the key negotiator, who's currently the advisor to the, to the speaker of the house in the type argument. and he told me that currently there are no negotiations going on. you have to be negotiating directly with home us in the wrong. what is your recommendation to a type government? what should happen next to get the remaining hostages free from uh, that's

a bond type on, i believe the time difference should put on israel to or to stop the bombing for a week. i get over at least for a few day, have certain interview at the bottom. do i like this would allow the negotiations to begin? not. what can we have a talent has remained quiet as i do a team and does not try to make him us understand. our position to the republic died already, not far out. we should make it clear that we don't side with israel high is what i or because now it has become really difficult to free but remaining hostages. how about the dot isn't last time. government to clearly communicates with israel to stop the bombing as requested by him. us, you're doing so that tool just kind of come in is guidebook reset it guy to how about the wrong thing to do to allow either way. yeah, i'm going to the, by the time. so you would say the historically good relationship between thailand and the wrong is reason for hope that the remaining hostages will be freed soon. if

that quote here. so totally negotiations can proceed only if a couldn't but bond when results funded right now. well, it will be no negotiations like this. you're getting what i've got from the bottom . it stops, however, they will release remaining hostages if i just like they did last time about is clear that a type people on not the enemy coming up so they don't need to keep them as hostages. back in that, how can they release them now that the, by the bombs are threats to the hostages and that i, i think i'll put to talk, i'm dying of guilt is thailand actually putting pressure right now on israel as well? is it just a day of the type of apartment uh it has made older brother, the type farm industry has made clear that they do uh once to see a ceasefire. all that they have, it is their, their impression that it is a cease fire. that's what it takes for those negotiations to restart. officially,

they say efforts are made to push for a release, but the situation it appears is really complicated. so what are the goal? she had her i have and that also tells me is that he was told by how much in the wrong that those 8 hostages that are still missing of how must be nice, that they are in their hands. so he says it may be that they have been updated by it by another group or by a rival group in does off. so it's a, it's a while that's, that's how much is lying about it. so it's a really complex situation here. and there's a lot of negotiations of what your efforts going on behind the scenes here. the w's asian pacific guarantees. gail motus that talk to us from chicago. thank you very much, gail. it would turn into more ukraine. now. germany is among the western nations pushing back of the front as president demo with my call suggested allies and might need to consider sending ground troops to assist

you crane. and it's fine to construct shop. mccaul was speaking following a conference in paris to drum up support for ukraine following those tools. german shots that will have showed stressed western ground troops. what not an option. beyond the trudy october, but this good kid, we all just need this cause squeezed to arrange for the support of sites on that by is not enough for a very good debate. we decided that what was agreed from the outset. that stuff also applies to the future, and i'm done under physically for mis, namely that there would be no ground troops mixed us as kind to know soldiers on ukrainian, sorry to stop. and i'll send there by european countries or need those dates and stop the from not the stop and alternative sick patton. now let's get more than that story from dw steve political intimacy. electives now is the client, the public's best, the between the french and german lead us any a sign of it subsiding as well. there's really 2 layers and of this because

tons of souls basically reiterates what is a native of this. and we also saw the white house reacting this, rebuffing is the very idea of having boots on the ground. the tell you is the brits so it's not just between germany and fonts. what french for the model nicole seems to mean is the whole concept of friends. i'm big, you would see leading options on the table. that's what he said, but he's getting very little understanding suddenly from the western allies. in fact, there must have been a realization on the french side that this probably was a bit too risky because the french farm and as the then it came out and qualified this a bit and said that, and one needed to think about more options about civilian personnel involved the reaction from the kremlin. though dmitri pest cost of spokesman was that it's sending troops would certainly mean a rule with nato. and that's what everybody wants to avoid. and having said

that, we also saw the french for the amount of them i called, criticized on me for. and this we having ruled out so many things in this, the only pledging sleeping bags and those 5000 helmets. and then having delivered a lot more and he is really what's the reaction from the vice chancellor was who bought topic when he was asked about fonts, putting that very idea of troops on the table. he again ruled it out and then had this to say for him, i'm glad that front is considering how to support your crime most strongly. but if i can make a suggestion, 2nd to more weapons, and it's a between paris and by then. so and then where do nato and the european allies go from here on this rather delicate issue as well, at this very moment in time, this, that looking a lot less united than they did just 48 hours ago, go after

a meeting that was supposed to do exactly that, unite everybody behind ukraine, pledging more support. that's what the friends have done recently and finding that i'm eunice, and that is desperately needed in ukraine and with the french have dropped the resistance to only something around in europe. now basically everybody searching the world markets for that's a munition that is so vitally needed, a bit more understanding actually amongst the baltic states. we saw the list when in 4 minutes to come out and say that it is needed, that kind of leadership, that the amount of them i call it, he says is providing that is needed and that options need to remain on the table. it's safe to say this is something that pleases the crimson and moscow. it's a point school that, that at least public the looks like there is some division on how to go ahead. whereas we're hearing from diplomats that there was a lot of unity behind the scenes at that meeting in fonts. here you're looking for

that. thank you very much. time now to have a look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. a, a german maybe frigates the has been seen here and found video has repelled and attacking the red sea by humans food. the militia ship fired on 2 targets. the 1st engagement off at germany's red sea admission to secure cargo ships against attacks by the militants, which are backed by iran to mayoral candidates in the mexican city of mount ivy, about seal have been gun down. within hours of each of the organized crime syndicates behind the attacks, the code may i have said the mad as come ahead of national elections plants of june, which could become the most violent on rec, hold, according to civil rights groups to the us state of texas. has issued a disaster declaration for thousands of counties as

nikki haley, shows that some republican voters are reluctant when it comes to giving him another for years in power. she has filed to keep fighting, at least until next week, super tuesday contest in 16 states. we now have on the democratic party side, us president joe biden's victory comes with a warning from voters which is a proof of his position on these trials war in gaza. so we won't stand by idly, while for us happen on our behalf on the other side of the world. it's discussing what's going on and gaza. and frankly, we've had enough of it to michigan his home to a large arrow, the american community which back bye and in 2020 but they are now angry over his handling of the war, especially his reluctance to call for a cease fire in the weeks leading up to the vote,

they launched the container to get the democrats to vote on committed an option more than 50000 people have gone for, you know, i think before, when we thought we only had 2 options on our ballot, there was a lot of apathy. people felt like there were not any candidates that really representative what we're asking for. and i think given that the uncommitted option on the ballot has really empowered people, it's really activated people. 5 men from are set to continue their presidential bits. and michigan's choice in november could well determine which man occupies the white house next year. as it is one of the world's smallest fish, but it knows how to get attention. the one point to send to me, the fish from southeast asia, has a unique ability to produce a noise, but as, as loud as a gunshots, no scientist and a balloon university. i felt exactly how the tiny creature can make such

a big by the sound can damage your ear. drums each is tempt close to its unexpected thoughts. one of the world, the smaller space at 12 may lead me to long done, you know, a cerebrum. it can produce noise exceeding $140.00 decibels as low as a gunshot, automobile and siren. can we put the fish in a tight and then set up a high speed video recording. so the recordings happen to 8000 principal 2nd. and then when he started this down, you can see what's going on inside inside the body. so we watch these videos of the fish making sound so you can see that the swing by the when i struck this book struck then it, um, it compresses, then you can see the ultimate is a compression that happens. um, but that's what the sales price at the scientists at the sound comes when the fish

bladder is truck by one of its own rates. and the rebus much hard in males than females. that's why i only mail few shar, able to make such a noise. but why would they ever be that loved the fishes native to me in march where it lives in the waters and this sound could be help and it communicates. so we think that maybe that develops this mechanism for just the communication between k without any visuals. and the fish to make sounds, whether by themselves, any one that with other fish, to be quite sure that at some, some communication signal is strongly dismiss fish nemo, were able to make such a loud noise to finding nemo would never have been a problem. the and that's it from me and been used and we also stopped making noise when a box up next to made in germany. locate the reasons for boeing's technical
