12:01 pm
the hello, i'm terry morrison. good to have you with us. thailand's parliament has elected pates on guns. jenna was to become the next prime minister. at 37, she becomes the country's youngest leader and the 3rd member of the she don't want family to take the office. the boat comes days after the constitutional court renewed the last prime minister from office. he was removed after the constitutional court found him guilty of an ethics breach. speaking at her party headquarters after the potion of what told supporters she felt compelled to take on the job, i decided that it's about time to do something for the country and for the party as well. and i just, i hope that i can do my best as to,
12:02 pm
you know, make the country go forward. jacob goldberg is a journalist with a new humanitarian. and he's based in bangkok i asked him to tell us more about how that's ongoing shinall. what became prime minister? sure, yeah. she's the leader of the time party, which is the largest part in the current governing coalition. she's also the daughter of probably the most popular politician in the country, touching and before her election to prime minister members of that coalition made the toxin and who's the guy who's now the god. basically the godfather of that party. and it seems that whatever was discussed in that meeting and whatever deals are made, resulted in keeping that collision together and resulted in her pretty easy election with very little deliver asian and not a not much competition. tell us more about the new prime minister and the shadow of
12:03 pm
political dynasty. the shadow of family is hugely influential in thailand, isn't it? yeah, it's usually influential. they are not more influential than the the opposition party to move forward part, you know, now called the deepest part of that was just disbanded. but they were the 2nd, they placed 2nd in the latest election and the new prime minister, like the one who was just removed from office, are seen as prophecies. for addition, one family and the head of the family talks. and this is her 1st elected position before becoming time minister. and before taking leadership of the party, she ran the hotel arm of her father's business. um and you just use mentioned earlier to baptism of fire. that makes sense because she will immediately face a lot of pressure. she'll have to, she's expected to jumpstart the economy. somehow toward our challenges from the
12:04 pm
members of her coalition and challenges the las air like the other members of her party essays. and to do something about the rising popularity of the opposition to the people's party, which of these are party in the last election bill. this is thailand's 2nd premier within a year following an election, which the opposition one and then was prevented from taking office. what does all this say about try democracy a yeah, that's a, that's a really tricky question and potentially dangerous to comment on that. uh, i'll do my best uh why i think that there's a few data points we can look at it. first of all, any political system that's dominated by millionaires and billionaires, which is the case for thailand, multiple parties in thailand is going to ignore the majority of the people. but aside from that, the governments that do our collections, whether whether they win them or do or, or come close to winning them,
12:05 pm
they don't end up finishing their terms. are removed from power by course, or the, or the states. cuz like in multiple members of the new prime ministers assembly that has happened to them. and aside from that, the, the opposition, the most popular party in the country was disbanded last last week by the same for that just remove the prime minister. so all of the most popular elected politicians are faced as threat as the not really being able to carry out their plans. jacobs, thank you very much for that. that was jacob goldberg journalist with the new humanitarian in bangkok. united states is urging israel and come us to be ready to compromise as talks on a possible ceasefire and gaza enter their 2nd day. international mediators are again meeting in the target capital devil hall, although her mouse is not participating. both is ryland. how mazda have accused
12:06 pm
each other of adding new demands to the terms of the deal, which had been approved by the un security council. the talks calm as the guy is, a health ministry says the death toll from the conflict has surpassed. 40000. i'm us october 7 terror attack killed more than 1200 people in israel or corresponding fedex toms, or to following all of this from jerusalem. i asked him for the latest on the ceasefire negotiations. well, i would the, the find the current situation as careful optimism here. in is read the fact that there is really mediators as to aid indoor, han min one more day, is a reason for careful optimism. here. there are reports suggesting that some progress has been made. and the fact that the negotiations will continue to day are certainly a reason for most of, for the, for the families of the hostages. and for the part of sydney ends in guys are to be
12:07 pm
slightly off to a mistake. having said that, there are still heard is to be overcome when it comes to this deal and today will be crucial for the remainder of the negotiations. there's a big focus on israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu, and all of this, i'm say he's blocking a deal that it doesn't, wouldn't fit his political interest. is benjamin netanyahu truly interested in a piece deal? it? well, it really depends where you ask when it comes to the, to large parts of the hostage assemblies here in these row. they've been expressing very strong criticism of a prime minister netanyahu. uh saying quite explicitly that he's not interested in the deal for political reasons for uh, basically for the reason of keeping his government going. uh, having said that there are writing voices an easy way to host the whole. think the
12:08 pm
district that the negotiation strategy has by prominence and that's on your own is the government, is the way to go with. they've been calling it's, they've been calling the potential deal and all sorts of derogatory names. here it is, while having said that there are polls which clearly suggested most is really support such a deal. and, and it remains to be seen how be is ready negotiations, team go go was about these are very delicate situation. so egypt kata, and above all, the united states are involved in these negotiations as mediators. uh, they say that they only need to work out the details of implementation of the deal . what kind of details are we talking about here, felix? we're talking about uh, several important parts of the deals here. first of all, we're talking about the so called the philadelphia corey door,
12:09 pm
which is the area of the border between the guys, us troop and egypt. this has been a main area for how mos, in terms of bringing the goods into our smuggling boards into the gaza strip. there are some disagreements when it comes to the when it comes to whether is there a was stays or in some capacity, whether some technological elements will be installed there to overlook what's been going on there. and another aspect which remains to be agreed is the return of civilians to the northern part of the gaza strip. and whether this, such a return would be, would be possible without any controls or without some control of the, of the people with weapons going over to the north, some of the governors trip. and of course, the last important part is the constellation of the hostage of the of the hostages
12:10 pm
. the weather is where i will receive a certain elliptical name of the hostages, which will, who will be released before a deal is being struck. and what will happen with the prisoners is rowe and who will decide where it gets released. those are the main. 2 elements of disagreement as things stand, as you said, the mediators do believe those differences can be overcome. and so they will be crucial to see whether that is indeed the case for the next. thank you very much for filling us in there. that was our correspond in jerusalem, felix tom, so or go state of cultures where mediators are trying to negotiate as these bar and gaza. and it's also where some palestinians are being treated for severe injuries from the war. dw special correspondent abraham was in doha, where she met with palestinian medical of back you ways and saw the toll. the fighting is taken on the gaza strips most vulnerable of wanting the viewers. her
12:11 pm
story does contain graphic and disturbing images. many ways, 9 year old, my mood is like a new child. his age enjoys playing with his father and feeding his younger siblings at video games. during those moments, he is a happy boy out, let's play, i am kind of genuine. then i am patient. i can take a lot of time with time like like i'm as you everything and sometimes if out of nowhere, what he has gone to over comes him. his mother tells the story. my mood can not it was just the who would the assignments mood line face down just had was moving and he was breezing, but his right was not there. and his left arm was completely crushed and he told me mom, do take my sister and go. i will be murdered. i told him no,
12:12 pm
my loss would never leave you. he fell from my arms appraisal i was going to, i could not carry your actual machine. that was back in december. wood's mother tells me the family were shooting, is really calls to beat the northern parts of the gaza strip. then it is really rocket landed near my home. and when i came in today's, after this trying because of the anastasia and fever, he was coming in and out of consciousness. he was hallucinating when he woke up and he would look at himself and asked me where my hands. why am i like this one? and he would cry. i could not make him stop, so i would cry with him. after the injury he became like a baby again. she needed help with everything along smoothly, but truly mood is recovering cute and caught that along with more than 2000 other evacuees from god's us. most of them are women and children. many have serious injuries, initially built to house football world cup fans. this compound is mountain
12:13 pm
microcosm, human suffering caused by war. israel says, is justified to protect its people. everyone here has a story of loss and tragedy. in november, how much his wife and 2 of their children were on their way to a market and gossip when they worship bite is really air strike. he tells me this video, he says, shows the aftermath of the attack. the boy being carried away is his youngest. perhaps the woman lying in the background as his wife had lost his leg. his wife died in the hospital because it couldn't do she was everything of the good. it was nice but thank god she left me the children and then he was civilians walking down the
12:14 pm
street on lives all we ever asked for from god was protection pacific one special has a little, his son is getting treatment. he misses his mother and his siblings, some of whom are still trapped in gaza. getting the family back together is all that mohammed can think about. but so far, all his attempts failed us for a little more. in one sense, he's the luckiest of lucky. he was able to get out with his siblings and both of his parents. it's a big reason why they say he's having mostly good days, but the memories of his home now a pile of trouble are always with him. that will do now the day i'm used to being in my country. i'm playing with my friends. i'm playing with my cousins, and i have loved what i loved the most was playing with my cousins. i loved them. i have no cause that i've done the best kind of david, right bicycles together. he would play soccer together. we would go swimming and
12:15 pm
then we were happy and also playing k if hey, we had fun. the hood wants nothing more than to be able to return home one day, but the cause of his childhood no longer exists then joined now by our special correspond. it is abraham who filed that report. if you travel to cato default, your report kata is playing an extraordinary role in events that are on folding in gaza. it's also where peace negotiations are, are taking place or a ceasefire. negotiations are taking place for for gaza. why is ta ta one and a half 1000 kilometers away from guys are playing such an important role in events there? right, i mean for a tiny golf state, one can say that it has played an outside world in a conflict that really, everyone around the world seems to have an opinion about. and as you mentioned,
12:16 pm
a car towed has been one of the main negotiators in the ongoing, a cease fire talks. they were a key per tag in this, in the successfully negotiated a temporary cease fire agreement late last year, which actually saw the return of the majority of hostages that have been able to leave a gaza. they've sort of placed themselves as the mediators of the region. they've become host to some very unsavory actors. so the tyler bond famously and now they are also, you know, the host of how masses, political leadership since 2012 since that leadership has left a damascus. and so they're kind of playing on both sides, if you will. and they created a very important role for themselves in the region and globally, as a result of being sort of that diplomatic go between between the west and some of the world's less the reactors at the same time getting to tell about that is
12:17 pm
correct at the same time we seen as we've seen that report the, the humanitarian effort that they have done for the most vulnerable in this war. i . and it's a logistical feat to try and bring these medical if action was out of the gaza strip is really, is, are involved in proving that the addictions because they actually go through the rough border and from everything that we seen, i mean, they really taken on cases that countries like germany have so far, for example, not been able to, to bring here for, for various, for various reasons and, and for the people that are there that are getting that treatment, that means the world, every single one of these individuals as a whole world, why did you go to content and not to say is real or the palestinian territories to interview the medical of accuracy? well really it's, it's, it's a question of access since the beginning of this, when this is really unprecedented. israel has restricted the access of extra children was international during those like ourselves from the gaza strip. there
12:18 pm
had been few in beds with the i yesterday from the earlier phase of the war. but these, you know, these, these, uh, these are reporting trips under the auspices and the idea of are heavily filtered, of course. and this is really the sort of an unprecedented restriction. of course we've been relying on the great work of our power steering and colleagues who are, you know, fighting for their lives and for their families life as the report. but for us to really be able to go there and bear witness to bear witness 1st hand to the stories of survivors that hasn't been possible so far. your, my colleagues, a part of a much bigger team that's been on the story since the massacre of october 7th and the war. and we've covered many different aspects of it. we've, we've spoken to posting and east jerusalem and occupied respect. we've covered the tensions within is really society, the hostage, a tragedy the, the agony with their families are going through with spoken to evacuate from northern israel, but really getting firsthand, access to thousands, haven't been able to really do that. so for us, you know,
12:19 pm
in that proximity and so it was really important for us to go there and to be able to speak to them and to try and really show the path of a possible recovery. that's ahead of them. the challenges that face is that population. yeah, thank you very much. that was our special corporate correspondent, a, a single look now at a few other stories making headlines around the world to day. one person was killed when his really settlers attacked a village in the occupied west bank. that's according to palestinian health officials. dozens of settlers burnt cars and homes. one is really man has been arrested. israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu has condemned to the violets. indian doctors have called for a nationwide shut down known as central medical services on saturday, as protests, to continue over the rape and murder of a medical training, a training in the cold contract. several political demonstrations are also planned for the weekend. protests of or violence against women have grown since the murder
12:20 pm
was discovered last week. and pack stead, health officials have detected a case of m fox. as the virus continues to spread, the patient had travelled to a gulf states though it's unclear which train of the virus was detected. china has begun monitoring people and goods entering the country for em parks. while sweden confirmed the 1st case of the new deadlier strain. outside africa now to ukraine, where russia's war has provoked ukraine into launching its own incursion into russian territory. ukraine and russia are now claiming to have made new advances in russia's course region. keith says it's taking control of sewage of the largest russian town to fall to ukraine since the incursion began. moscow says that his recapture one village in corner scan, that it would send additional re additional forces to its neighboring belgrade
12:21 pm
region. the criminal, a told state media that ukraine would not have attacked russian territory without direct support from the west to i mean i, me wrong is with the worst studies department of kings colleagues, london ste or a short while ago why russia has not managed to push back the rush, the ukrainian and that's well, there are several reasons for that. um, the 1st option is, and of course, um, ukraine knew when they started this course school fan. so it was a surprise for the russians. and in order to send in troops, it takes time and you have to decide where you get those troops from. that is perhaps why the russians declared this to be accounted terrorism operations so that they could use bought a god. so they could use the f as b and, but there are also marine infantry for fighting in the region. some ex wagner fighters are fighting in the region in oregon up to get troops from ukraine,
12:22 pm
or at least from a strategically important direction. the 2nd reason could be, is that the russians waiting for the ukrainian force to get in deep or to expose their logistics in order assigned to launch or counter attack. so we don't know which of these are true. maybe it's a combination of old but, and it looks like the situation remains tens, however, so ukrainian forces still have look, manage to the core and of a or risk which would give ukraine unimportant advantage. how is ukraine benefit thing from this offensive into russia? is it eliminating pressure on ukraine's troops elsewhere or well, i think the main benefits are coming into the informational space where ukraine is demonstrating that it can launch an incursion on the russian territory. however, if you look at the battlefield and reports from ukrainian units such as the 21st,
12:23 pm
but tally in near crescent, a horoscope, which is sol. so for the you've got, they are stating that they don't have enough people. and the situation has already been tens for them, but now it's much more difficult since ukrainian units were deployed the course. so big they are. they don't have enough for a tillery shells. they're drones not as effective against russian electronic warfare systems. and so they, they are facing a lot of difficulties specifically around threats around the cross willfully guard, to a certain extent, try cpr. so it doesn't seem like the pressure has been eliminated quite the opposite. now russia says it's recapture the village in the course region and we'll send additional forces to neighboring belgrade. does it really have enough troops as rich russia really have enough troops does, or does a troop deployment for russia mean pulling some of its forces out of ukraine as
12:24 pm
there has been reports that russia has pulled some troops from patricia because the front line is somewhat stable they are, but they are not going to pull troops from the likes of crops for threats. and the problem is, it's a, it's a very complex logistical operation to get the troops from ukraine to the course region and your risk in ukrainian attacks on the logistical lines. therefore, um, that is not an ideal scenario, and that's what the brain is waiting for to, as i said to alleviates of pressure. but they're all in tears for fighting for themselves to saturate from kazi, which is a break away region. in georgia, there are also conscripts being sent to fight, and course the question here is what the items are to draw the inquiry and forces in order to get them out of course, as soon as possible. and it also depends on what the ukrainian contingent is and
12:25 pm
how many reserve screen has and is willing to send. so it's difficult to estimate the number of forces needed here. that was analysts to marina marilyn from the worst studies department at kings college funded or their correlation. coastal city of bizarre is drawing in tourists and locals alike with it's one of the kind a, c, oregon. it's an intricate network of pipes and chambers powered by mother nature. the musical sea front setup has become an increasingly popular spot as the heat. waves sweeps across the bulk this musical instrument is played purely by the waves that left the shore. the marble stepsons of darzy front tide 35 under water pipes that stretch across 17 meters, swallowing air from the waves to create music. the
12:26 pm
overdue of a separate boat is part of the waterfront, has turned into a meditative focal point of the city. a good which is very welcome and very necessary and today's busy stressful life. so this installation means a lot to us that for dial by selection on some of the other one was that the architectural wonder was created by architects and the color by church and opened in 2005. this helps transform the correlation time. now it draws tourists from all over the world. yeah. uh, we heard it earlier and we, so we came here to discover this. so and the, it's good. yeah, that's a good song. it's surprising that the good the melodies are ever changing. just as every wave is unique. so is each song, the organs,
12:27 pm
12:28 pm
there are many opportunities over what if, what if i thought, i hope i loved them so much? i don't want my grandson. leaving home can be contemptuous, but for different reasons. any child would then go to another country. why would that be good? i'm afraid that she would be murdered or to that us in the when generations flash dw, it's getting hotter and hotter interest. and well, he's thinking mind this,
12:29 pm
he's of backing extreme with because of climate change. but also do you just the high news on know, transforming the living spaces from great to green build and especially in 60 minutes on d, w, the living in a society is full of contrasts and inequality is a big challenge. many problems can only be solved by working together. yes, i think i pretend isn't misleading. what is home? how do we talk of the major issues about time? talk about the there is
12:30 pm
a significant risk of human extinction from advancing our system. our series continues to the henderson on the w, the, the version, the lead that i did not just change my life to fix my life. you know, it's not that there's no future lanes, but for me i want to expand. and i believe that when i'm exploring, i will achieve something. that's what got me thinking about going to i'm going, i'm the, i left him so much. i don't wanna lose my grandson. and angela immigration to see me in our society as a way.
