the, the, this is the, the news coming to live from berlin. the world health organization sounds. the alarm over an outbreak of impulse in africa, as cases serves the w h o declare is a global health emergency. the outbreak is being fueled by a new more easily transmissible barrier. also coming up talk saying that achieving a ceasefire and gauze are set to get underway in doha. from us is refusing to take part, saying it's losing faith in us mediators, while it awaits an offer from israel. and ukraine's incursion into russian territory has sparked a new debate about restrictions on, keeps use of western made weapons. we take a look at the west current red lines and how they consume change plus to us

after and past or not it's in limbo, afford the international space station that says it's still working out how to return them to earth after their boeing space craft malfunction. the voluntary margin, thanks for joining us. world health organization has declared a global public health emergency following an outbreak of a new strain of the em pox virus in africa. the virus formerly known as monkey pox can be passed on through close contact and causes flu like symptoms and the lesions in the body and can be deadly. it's now been detected in at least 13 african countries, but one country has been hit particularly hard. the democratic republic of congo,

the impulse is searching across africa. and this is ground 0 by thousands of cases hoping that posted in the democratic republic of congo. as a new outbreak grips the country, it's already claimed at least $450.00 lives. most of them children and it's showing no sign of slowing down. 7 the detection and drop you to spread off a new laid off impulse in eastern and the odyssey. it's detection in neighboring countries that had not previously reported and books. and the potential for the further spread within africa and beyond is very, warding united option to add that out, breaks of other plates, of and books in other parts of africa is clear to that, to coordinate that international response is essential to stop these outbreaks and save lives formerly known as monkey pokes and poke spreads to place contact,

including sex, causing flu like symptoms and painful pests filled legions. but this new strain is proving more infectious and even more deadly. an expert spirit, the growing outbreak in africa could just be the tip of the iceberg. we believe that it's already 8 weeks uh, for international sprayed down. of course. there is also the chance that'd be good . it spread beyond africa to order. we don't serve the world. the world health organization last declared impulse and international health emergency in 2022, with cases in more than 70 countries. that was locked, the shut down with the help of vaccines and treatments in which countries very few of those that are available in africa and global health officials. hype, this new emergency declaration will kick starts and the international efforts to contain the disease. and removing is professor of epidemiology at

the u. c. l, a. fielding school public health. she told us how this alert by the w h. o. good health contain the outbreak. this is actually a very important moment and really demonstrates that we've learned a lot from previous outbreaks or previous uh, situations you know, in the past, maybe reacting a little more slowly when we see something happening in remote rural areas in africa. but i think what we've learned here is an infection anywhere is potentially an infection everywhere. and what's happening in rural areas of africa can very easily come to our doorsteps, anywhere in the world. and so being able to stop this at its source as soon as possible, it's critically important. and this public health emergency will do many things. it will unlock funding that is not has not been available to really support surveillance, a better testing opportunities,

more and more efforts towards public health. but it's also going to help coordinate getting vaccines and therapy units to these areas that have not had these tools to be able to combat and fox the previously. so that was an remote line from the u. c. l, a. fielding school of public health. now, negotiations over a plan to end the war in gaza are scheduled to start in colorado. today, the region is on edge, as is real awaits retaliation from a run. after the killing of a mass political leader is male and the entire run. negotiators want to use a plan put together by the, by the administration at the end of may and endorsed by the un security council of calls for 6 weeks east fire in gaza. a mouse would release its remaining is really hostages and exchange for palestinian prisoners. israel would allow, in unlimited a deliveries and its forces would withdraw from gaza. but he says

it's losing faith in the us as a mediator and will not attend the tops the top official and concert for the post. any militant group whose october 7th terror attack sparked the war, set him, us was still willing to be briefed afterward on the discuss points. no matter what you expect to be told by the media a to is the israel has an accepted was, is being offered. and any meetings should be based on talking about implementation mechanisms and setting deadlines rather than negotiating something new. otherwise less time, us find no reason to participate. let's get some analysis now from professor you'll see michael back, he's a with the, the least in north africa program. but the think tank of chatham house, thanks for being with us. don't say this deal being discussed in doha has been on the table for months already. why are we suddenly seeing movement in these negotiations? now? what's changed? good morning. i think the main change, the state state international community is losing his special sweet voice,

both sides and wants to see the age of each wants to see a ceasefire. the rest of the hostages to many, to age, enter into guys are and most important the start looking to the day after the end of day or the war. but what's happening right now is because there is, it is connected closely being also with an expense could attack by the increased by the idea that the same time see what the initially also for the t o and use that as a design goal is to assess the nation running in be walking down and to also believe the come i see somebody then. yeah. and this is by the official duty and being bedrooms. so cool. so i think why now they think between reaching section agreements, piece of filtering section, and starting to convert the entire release into a form roll. so there is fresh momentum here. uh,

how much negotiating power though, does her mouth have left at this point, given all the defeats that it suffered so far? i think maybe it's, it's main code is the hostages. so they told them how to 20 or 20 hostages. we don't know how many of them a student likes and i think depression was so mounting inside these a tuition into the man that at least some of the hostages, which should and then if any other government, cuz the thing they can go to your condition every time there is there is that by then proposing that, but then yeah, was behind age and often it's and then a start delaying the domain name because of the actual this fall i know to each section and to them and they go to play over to the main thing, the law against commerce, then the resource, all the hostages. i think the scope students do the song,

they're wanting the comments about how much they stay in the oh, well because of the shuffling close to that they didn't get to say it's on the point of this content and against the position. it's also getting my lease and we trust manual if it suits me, that she know how difficult do you think it will be to reach a meaningful deal under these circumstances? extremely, this is the i think we shouldn't down to the estimates because as it stands, it doesn't seems why the world that's the sense of urgency to reach an agreement and say, hey, was original ending the one dresser. it already claimed the life of so many innocent people, i think the leadership so don't share the sense of urgency. and there's something that jason smith i know is afraid of is, is government collapsing as a result of funding during the fall. i see the government give saying that it's

which leads in case of such or such an overpayment that the same time the overall king owing, says buying a brand new man in temp and mounting joe's name is a simple location of the most and well. so the, of the conversation between these are the body takes that to make each moment know this approach, which i don't know what role is the united states playing, and all of this now it's been pressuring is real. and a mazda, of course, to comes in negotiating table, but him, us is a, is skeptical about having the us as a mediator in this negotiation. where is the us stand in this now? so, i think it's, we have to look at this, the material. so it says on this one package it's, it's a new method states, each of them cut off. and the ends of the day with the from last thursday. and i did say so low, dan, stand, it's a main county that cooks the show on the,

on the new government solution in the united states. also recognize that they are not good states like mal is different from the one that was 2 weeks ago when we started it because it didn't buy in and around. so it was sent to them to i think a is more, is now switched places opinions about the government, these i agree to kind of feed a and at the same time 0. so that spice president come with out. it's always going to live on behalf of the democrats. is she's small, worried about how the progress is. they're both those into united states. they're acting that action is there is no c star. i think in the sense how much needs to accept that. if it's wants to say, so it sparks and then it goes to washington. you also thank you very much for that . that was the all, seem nickel back of chatham house. take

a look some other stories making headlines around the world today. student protesters have gathered in the bank of the district capital doc a, in an attempt to block riley as by the supporters of ousted prime minister, shake casino. august 15th is a public holiday in bank or dash the anniversary of the assassination of huskiness father, a former president. around 300 people, died in student live demonstrations that ended. i've seen his rule strong. the tropical storm ernesto has strengthened into a hurricane after dumping. torrential rain on the us territory of puerto rico. the storm knocked out power to over 700000 people on the island. enough, there was forecasts to strengthen into a major hurricane and passed close to bermuda on saturday. activists say, one of your, of the last remaining prime evil for us is in danger. as wild fires, burning balls near as old as national park authorities have deployed firefighters

and military helicopters to battle the blaze which broke out on sunday. ukraine says its forces are continuing their advance into rushes quarter scrooge in 10 days after launching their surprised counter attack. ukrainian president below me, as the landscape says, his government has held talks on setting up a military administration, in course to allow the evacuation of civilians. keith said it plans to use the area as a strategic buffer zone to protect its border areas from russian to tax. see curtains, cross border advance, and russia has also renewed calls for its western allies to drop their restrictions on how their weapons are used. let's take a look at those so called red lines and help changing them by the fact the situation on the battlefield. taking the fight to enemy territory, ukraine's incursion into russia. putting the spotlight on its capabilities and rushing vulnerabilities, allegedly using western supplied fighting vehicles. us senators,

visiting keith as the operation was unfolding, said it's time to allow refrain to use it with weapons as it please. it's striking farther into russian territory a red line. the us has so far, shied away from that we want to convey to the administration of methods that it should provide more flexibility and authority to ukraine in using the weapons that have been provided to strike deeper behind the lines that exist right now. there are limits and issues of permission we hope to cut through that. thank you very much for your training and president found out to me as a lensky has long been fighting to erase that red line. yeah, those are, those are who would show me is the minutes the defend does seem nice. oh yeah. you said you'd have the book similar because even activity as possible with all the items in the middle range to meet with them to,

to use the ukraine. right. now we need appropriate permissions from all hong is to use, i don't range weapon lessons to survive and they look would be me. so this is something that consumers, if it can be my phones, the just the end of this noise at this point as well as the saved items of ukrainian light was from rush, the must have or features that you will create every day. she's go to the front line and ukraine has moved little in recent months with russia slowly expanding the territory. it occupies capturing a handful of villages at great cost. now for the 1st time ukraine controls territory in side, russia. ukraine says it holds in estimated 1000 square kilometers and the cursed region. the shaded area here shows the area of the russian boarder regence of brands cost in belgrade that are in range of us, supplied high mars missile launchers that ukraine has now. but almost all of russia's military and air bases are beyond that range. so landscape has consistently pushed to use longer range. missiles like advanced attack comes,

they can fire up to a 170 kilometers another red line. but that would make it harder for russia to protect the air bases from which it launches most of its air attacks on ukraine, cities, and infrastructure. there are also attack comes with a 300 kilometer range, which could threaten even more russian assets. over the past 2 years, the west has escalated its own arms deliveries from high mars, multiple rocket launchers to tanks, to long range missiles to fighter jets. each considered a red line all without russia taking serious steps to counter over the conflict. the red lines have changed. earlier this year, the us said ukraine to use attack comes to fire across the board. only in parts of the hockey region that were under attack from russia. that's not the same area where you cranium. troops searched across the border this week. for his part, russian president vladimir putin has said he has the red lines to warning of

possible nuclear escalation. if russian territory is the time we have the rest of the, those warnings, the crazy person. unfortunately, soil playing it down to and blaming the way was not doing suitable symbol, but apparently which is the animal with the help of this west. and i'm often useful finding that will you find the way it is fighting with us. ok, with the hands of ukrainian lisa samuel, huge. it seems the red lines may not be quite so red as refrain, tried to desperately to change the calculus on the battlefield. road neighbor, just to be sure, was work. let's bring it in for a brief part. you a here who's a former director of strategic policy planning and they to a now runs rasmussen, global and international affairs consultancy joins us from madrid. good to see you again for bruce, what to get your take on the red lines in this war, starting with russia present, putting his war into this country might use nuclear weapons. if you crank goes too

far with this use of western weaponry, how seriously should we take that threat? that's why we should always take a nuclear signaling or nucleus right? very seriously indeed. but that is not power lies us. uh, because you can take and say, you see, but also push back on these red line and we'll so nuclear power we natal and can also signal back to putting that nuclear weapons or with friends of my destruction have nothing to do in this conflict. and the moment that he would bring to induce conflict, it's really obviously the, the change, the terms of the consultation. so i think it's also about as being more confident about who we are and what we have and pushing back on some red lines that are basically black met. ukraine is dealing with red lines of a different kind, namely restrictions on weapons supplied by its american and european backers. how restraining are those limitations for ukraine's ability to protect itself?

as i would say, it stipulates aging. and it's, it's very frustrating to see that more than a year after being asked for a longer range weapon system, as you'd still have some significant, other that's encouraging from the united states of america. gemini has refused to provide a known rage, a cruise me size a taurus. so i think ukraine is due to an adult at the fighting with one hand in the back because of the old 4 digit code. however, i think the person who spoke last is crossing a psychological threshold 1st beside the rock shop. because for the 1st time that you said the ukraine is actually on russian sort a and so good a cycles. you've got a 1st. so we've also, we've, whereas where you kind of showing that actually it can extra upset the fads on the russian territory. that you can have a form of active defense, you know, the,

to defend the ukrainian territory by taking it to the russian territory. and maybe this will change it got to this whole washington. you call it crossing a psychological threshold. but what about the actual military value of this incursion? how important is that? why is it advantage advantageous for ukraine? so i think it's difficult to control a designate assessment visual, so a bit of a fault of war uh, aspect to your way. you don't probably end up working with the 4 picture. however, what is clear is 1st a decent gosh, on the hash mothers to inject some adult and a big with the in the russian mindset. and they have to change their, their how they operate, increasing his war, not phone number. clearly you can still see that the majority of the russian forces uh alongside the 1000 kilobytes upfront lives. but certainly they have to shift for

cesar long and stop to make difficult choices. so that's already a big achievement. struggle whether because they've ukrainian forces can hold the territory they have captured on the, on the costco blast and use it as actually adult spiteful, deeper strikes. again, brushing the airfields. that's actually those are fees from where the to card and to be judge of taking off to denny, brought those terrible, terrifying, blind bones, which is the main issue for both the ukrainian forces, but also to suit against population. whether ukraine has got to hold that territory, these ex drop tends of to them, it just gain basically a decent range and go off to those efforts. that's another important question. and then finally, i think whether these a person is going to be followed by another type of operation. maybe i swear i don't the foot by now that the russians also have to diagnose some of their forces and may be the ukrainians. will that turn something into sauce,

which is really strategically important folder? i want to come back to the caviar that ukraine's western backers have placed on us use of weaponry low particularly long range, long range weaponry. given what you've said about those restrictions, being so debilitating for ukraine, limiting its ability to defend itself and to reclaim its territory. do you think those restrictions are going to be lifted or at least i think it belongs to a base you leaders most of the present on by them, but also transfer their phones, phones to, to make those decisions. quite frankly, the french government, but also to extend the british governments have landed of basic at least those caveats. so i think it's down to really the 2 key nature powers here. however, i think what's important to know is the ukrainians. i'm not waiting for us to make up our minds. they actually said go, they're hoping they own

a known range. they just try capabilities is obviously going to take time because this is a much more sophisticated technology than other systems. but hopefully they will have their own home room systems which would allow them to actually do what the us and the germans or the 9th to february. thank you very much for talking with this. again, that was for policy planning, director of data pub brief part you a step nessa officials say they have until the end of the month to decide how to bring to american astronauts stuck on the international space station back to earth. cynita williams and barry wilmore blasted into space in early june for an 8 day emission, but technical problems with a boeing star line or the brought them there have delayed the return by more than 2 months. and this is still checking if the spacecraft is safe enough for the journey home. if not, the students must wait until february 2025. when they could return on

a space ex dragon capsule. cohen, editor of nasa watched. com told us more about why the astronauts return was delayed and what it will take to get them back to earth. to your rescue if they have to come home to like something horrible happened and they had to come home tonight. they would get in that spacecraft and come home. it's an issue where the risk is. if you don't have to come home right away, then let's take a look at what's wrong. now here's a simple hop here, and what happens is, this is the part that comes back with the crew figure. how does the part, where all the rocket engines are that didn't work? they want to make sure they understand what happened here before they come home, because when they come home, the spark plugs up into your atmosphere. you get look at it once it comes back. so they've been testing it in plain, was it ever since? and they're getting closer to having a, you know, final decision. is it safe to use it or not? if it is, they come home, if not, well now they have to cert,

rearranging space flights. and finally, a mystery surrounding one of the ancient wonders of the world may have been solved . the new study has determined that the central piece of stonehenge was almost certainly brought all the way from the tip of scotland. the 6th ton to meet or alter stone has been at the heart of stonehenge for thousands of years. until recently it was thought to have come from a cory in wales, but it's team of researchers and use the laser analysis to mattress geological fingerprint. too, a sandstone deposit in scotland, 700 kilometers away. the students off the studies alter, say they still don't know how it was brought all the way to southwest england or why a just reminder of the top story we're following for you this hour and dw knows the world health organization has declared a global public health emergency, after an outbreak of the influx virus in africa, the w h o had been monitoring
