the mariana evans, dean. welcome. german chancellor. all of schultz is making a 2 day trip to the middle east where he's due to whole tall. so the leaders of jordan and israel schultz has called on israel to allow for a wide scale 8 access to gauze of the when is warning of widespread malnutrition there and germany has stepped up. its efforts to bring in food and supplies. germany has joined a handful of countries, including the u. s. and friends. power shooting aid into gaza. germany's air force dropped nearly 40 tons of relief goods into the territory on saturday, the foreign ministry in berlin says every package counts. it also says these

efforts are just dropped in the ocean when it comes to what is actually needed of the throughout the night. the situation is awful. we can eat or drink and eat is very scarce. so at the bottom, the international community has also started delivering relief supplies to gaza by sea, via and usually operational maritime core door agencies have criticize these efforts as inefficient and insufficient. and they accused israel of deliberately delaying the entry of trucks carrying a into gaza. israel says it's carrying out the necessary inspections. i'm going to send the we keep waiting for the aid. this is not a solution that's kind of what the by ship or by plane on is of no salt plane was dropping aid and people fighting over a ball multi yeah, there are some children who drowned and the see trying to get the

a wide scale aid access to gaza will be top of the agenda. if you're in german chancellor, we'll have shorts. this trip to the middle east. so we'll efforts to secure a ceasefire. can see how small and talking to the device. we are concerned about the further advancement of ministry developments. in particular, there is a danger that's a full scale offensive him a lot faster for result in many terrible civilian casualties. this must be avoided at all costs come meeting for meeting that most this. so this is also something that would have to be discussed. i think that we would have to talk about a long term solution. the question of how a peaceful coexistence between a palestinian state and israel can succeed. schultz this meeting jordan's king of dula leader. we'll travel to israel to meet with is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu and the families of some of the hostages held by him us in gaza.

i asked either will use tanya kramer in jerusalem to tell us more about want chester schultz is hoping to achieve through his talks and jordan into his room. well i think you have to say this is the 2nd visit to the region since uh, october 7 and uh, the war. he came shortly after october 7th as well and showing and um, uh, his full support for israel also in its war efforts. but now of course, we had a different phase of this for going into the 6 months. and with the $31000.00 over $31000.00 people killed in dollars according to the local housing authorities there . and the end warning of hunger instead of ation or humanitarian crisis in the gaza. so this is of course also when we're hearing more of the other world leaders also being more critical of it as well as for conduct including you as president joe biden, as well as close as the l i. so of course it will be watched what chancellor of

shoals is saying here to his is really a counterparts. one of the main concerns is and we heard that is a are, is, was preparations for a potential military or census. and we've all software over 1000000 public statements have shouted, why the war is going on, why they're also as strikes in the area. another concern is the return of the remaining is where the hostages in gaza. we understand that the chance that we also meet some relatives also those coming loose. and also, of course more you might determine a that needs to go into a garza, this is a demand so many in the international community. and that is also why germany is now taking part in those 8 drops. and that is part of course of the discussions in jordan. this is the 1st black off. it's very, very short trips. he arrived last night in jordan and we'll meet king abdullah during the morning hours. yeah. and kind of,

you mentioned these plans for military operation in ra fox, the focus of much international concern. but as you reported, israel's work cabinet approve these plans and yet we are still hearing at the same time that there are preparations to resume cease fire talks on a possible hosted jewel with him us. what's the latest you can tell us about this? yeah, there many conflicting reports he also in the is really media. we understand the time us had submitted, it's proposal on thursday last week. then we had to a permanent sub in, you mean it's and you know, cooling of those demons by how most unrealistic, nevertheless, the cabinet that decided to send. and it's ready delegation to do her a, to cut to, to continue those talks and their reports. now that this delegation should be leaving any time soon, it will be headed by the head of the massage dove it,

but now there's also another cabinet meeting scheduled for some time today to outline the is rarely position. so we understand that of course, this is going on and so the trucks have not completely broken down. it would be also the 1st time and we set in, is there any dedication will take part in those in direct talks? no, of course uh, this proposal we're seeing in several of phases releasing 1st about 40 of the hostages that are still in gauze of the women. elderly children also hostages that are in for, in exchange for palestinian prisoners. housing is very tales. but i mean, the main sticking points were always the demands, but how much the full withdrawal of israeli forces also the return of residence uh to northern gauze as well as a full service si fi. so we have to wait and see. there's a lot of, of course pressure also by the is ready public to come to such an agreement. and we

have to wait and see. you know, how this will unfold and to understand how wide the gap. so how narrow the gaps are between the 2 sides. that was dw tonya kramer in jerusalem. tonya, thanks as always for your reporting. we appreciate it. let's take a look now, some of the other stories making headlines, this, our police and these are all have use water cannon to disperse protesters, demanding a hostage deal. the demonstrators included family members of hostages, still being held in garza by militant groups. the protesters also demanded early elections and held signs. criticising is really prime minister benjamin antonia. the indian navy has taken control of a ship, hijacked bind somali pirates and the indian ocean. nearly 3 months ago, all 17 crew members were freed unharmed. the navy sent the 35 pirates aboard the vessel, surrendered. the ship was hijacked, back in december, raising fears that piracy was resuming after

and build it on here. the border authorities close shopping centers and schools after a series of attacks, the latest ukrainian strikes came on the final day of russia's stage, managed presidential election, which is set to extend. president vladimir putin is almost quarter century in power . a con volume slays crosses the frozen tundra of russia's remote northeast. they have travelled hundreds of kilometers to costs to the votes in russia's presidential election. we came from producing a 100 to make our choice. every voice of every person in our great country from east to west is important. after a brutal track down on political opposition, president vladimir putin is almost certain to extend his rule by another 6 years in moscow, thousands of kilometers to the west. many say they a voting for stability and prosperity. as of times we expect the one and

only the best of luck to me of not the middle of which put them to continue this policy. with the stability only going with the person who smell on him because he didn't make these changes with the dealer and we've many of pollutants, most powerful opponents, either in prison, exile or did the election offers no meaningful alternatives to the machine. it's a propaganda machine designed to make people think is directed to do a good job and we're seeing the results. despite the gremlins crack down on the descent, some have risk of imprisonment to make their true feelings known. who rushes opposition movement has also urged supporters together at polling stations at noon on sunday as a form of mass protest. but regardless of how many heat the cold, the outcome of this year's election is old. but such an ever since russian authorities closed down dw is bureau in moscow, our bureau chief,

your river shadow, has been based in rico lafayette and he joins us now for more good to see you, yuri. so we just saw there in our report how the widow of the late opposition leader, i'll explain of all new use calling on his supporters to disrupt this final day of elections in russia. but are people actually going to come out and protest, or are we calling to see how many people will come and there? yeah, and russia is a huge country. and is it bizarre senior, both of these protest action is actually, that is nothing extra old in the end, it's actually exactly what the candle ones, namely, for russians to come to the polling stations. and off to all high turn out is, is the gremlins goal. and depending on who is commenting on the cues in front of the paulding stations of the state, the media is saying, great people are finally coming to the polls to possibly vote for to, to add to the position media is saying people are protest. however, you know,

sort just have issued the warnings. anyone who prevents the election procedure procedure they say is to be punished. many residents of moscow or receive such a warnings on their cell phones. yes to be well, we also have to be clear that these pro tests are not likely to change the outcome of the election. so can they have any kind of impact at all? well, if you've always come over the election, you all right, is certain a certain as the protest action today can no longer change that. but it's too important for the positions they say to show some kind of protest they don't want to give up. uh, we saw similar ques, a few weeks ago when, as a potential presidential candidate bodies in the dash didn't, was collecting signatures. and she was the only anti war candidate is the only real, a position. so you got and she wasn't officially registered, never the less is the russian so many like minded people and it was important for

them to know that they will not alone. and i think that positions once the same effect today while you're a, we've also been reporting on how ukraine has carried out several attacks on russian territory over the past few days. and we heard the kremlin calling these attacks terrorist activities that are aimed to disrupt in the election. but what about the russian public? what do people make of these attacks? i mean attacks from your grain, of course, particularly worrying for people in the border region of belgrade. but if you have also a tax included yesterday entity tomorrow, or refinery, and even the last go this morning, may ask your guest the onion set to get the threatening attacks over the airport has been prevented them again. today is the biggest, one of the biggest apple. it's most compassion type of thing. but the other side of the call and of course, is that russian states propaganda is using these attacks to support the argument.

russia would be in danger and must defend itself from ukraine and not the opposite . that was d, w. the river shuttle reporting from rica. thanks to lottery. and that's the latest on the definitely you news this. our up next is shift on marietta evans team from me and the entire news team in berlin. thanks for watching the not just another day. so much is happening all at once. we take time to understand this is the day i'm in that's look at current use events, analyzed by experts and critical thinking is weekdays on d, w 1000000 people in what it's in just
