candidate for us president, the library golf. it's good to have you with us. we begin in the middle east and a new week of efforts to reach a ceasefire and gaza talks aimed at ending defining, have resumed today in doha. meanwhile, us secretary of state entity blinking, he is in israel, pushing the case. you met today with his really prime minister benjamin netanyahu in jerusalem after talks with these rarely president but moss has said that any signs of progress are quote, an illusion. the group says that israel has added new demands in the latest talks and has refused to consider withdrawing all of its troops from gaza. that is a red line for moss and mazda may remember, carried out the october 7th. the terror attacks in israel. here is more now from
1:02 pm
the us secretary of state. this is the decisive moment, probably the best, maybe the last opportunity to get the hostages home to get a ceasefire. and to put everyone on a better path to enjoy peace and security. i'm here as part of an intensive diplomatic effort on president bonds, instructions to try to get this agreement to the line and ultimately over the line . it is time for it to get done. it's also time to make sure that no one takes any steps that could derail this process. of i'm wondering, i'm joined by hinds y'all come schindler, he's a senior director at the counter extremism project here in berlin. he has experience in international diplomacy, intelligence and security, and talking. it's good to have you with us again. how do you re chances of an agreement coming about this week and don't thank you so much for having me be that
1:03 pm
is touching go the basic contradiction, but how much needs the hostages to survive as an organization and for the survival of leadership. and israel is needs to have the most of the hostages to destroy how much in gaza has it terrified that is still there on the have a breaching proposal by the egyptian capacity of us negotiators. that however, still reviews a 3 step process and as well as not address the is really 2 minds to keep control over the southern tip of causes the strip, the so called philadelphia port. so a, i would not put money on this working. right. yeah, and we're getting rewards that and boss has said that any talk of progress here is an illusion. does that make these thoughts been a non start or no, i mean absolute. do you have to try in particular, in this situation, wherever you still do not know how? because loving your particular on his phone to react to the can in front of you can
1:04 pm
get around. it is important to make sure that any, any chance of a potential agreement is used. but as long as israel is not, or the issue of israel not completely withdrawn from gaza strip is not addressed and a solution is found. i don't think that how much is going to agree to any given a temporary degree. and let's assume that a deal is reached. wouldn't bring about a sustained peace between israel and homeless and europe in any of course, in the ideal circumstances that will give you a multi agreement. however, if uh, premium and as the mid now begin speaking about some kind of a more sustained solution of the gaza. strip the administration of the copper strip by any one but these really military, he wouldn't have a massive internal problem in his government because there are at least 2 groups in his government like 5 been clear and smoked rich or absolutely do not accept anyone
1:05 pm
else. but these really military controlling guys, and that of course is not something that i'm not supposed to be able to. i'm gonna ask you about another story. this coming out of israel. tomas has claimed responsibility for a suicide bomb explosion, intel, a beep that killed the assailant and injured one person. how worried it should is, will be by this a. this is a very all mean a side, this is the 1st suicide for me. you know, while it is most likely not coming out of cars, but out of the i must start his and the respond well of course him in 5 more competitive than in the gaza strip, where there was only how much since 2007 in the west bank, of course there is a back on this junior groups, this, the 5 top, there's the front of student security services, a forces, and these ready security forces and then it, and you know, government wrongly, as we found out, i've concentrated all of its efforts and military on the best buy and not the guy
1:06 pm
list a bunch of october 2030 the so they are because at the end, because this man, however, is beside bombing doesn't take a massive amount of structures. so this could be a return to the 1990 square. we saw numerous times of options. there's always we appreciate your time in your analysis today. thank you. thank you so much. all right, let's take a look now at some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world . health care workers in india have stage renewed protests and daily calling for tougher laws after a woman was raped and killed on duty. rallies were also held in other cities. some doctors and medics refused care for non emergency patients. the government has asked the doctors to return to work and just said that they perform a committee to address their demands. the philippines has detected its 1st imparts case this year. authorities are working to determine if it's the new deadlier strain that's been reported in several other countries. the world health
1:07 pm
organization has issued its highest alert over the more contagious barrier. after an outbreak of killed hundreds in the democratic republic of congo. the russian president vladimir putin is on a state visit to answer by john hilde talks with president. you'll have aliya in boxes. the 2 nations will sign agreements to expand their strategic partnership function is expected to address the conflict between either by john and its neighbor or meeting with moscow has confirmed that ukraine has struck a 3rd bridge in the course region as it steps up. it's offensive into russia. ukraine says that it aims to create a buffer zone along the border to prevent the kremlin from launching further attacks. ukraine released these pictures of its forces destroying a 2nd strategic bridge and course over the weekend. now the campaign is designed to disrupt the law scales, combat operations, and supplied routes. ukraine is also attacking russia from above over
1:08 pm
a 100 drones of targeted air bases inside russia. in recent weeks, russia has been using these bases to watch ariel strikes into ukraine since the beginning of this war. keith is hoping that it's offensive will help counter rushes more plants. a regular feature on the russians think t v images of military aircraft in accent. the plains attack in military positions and civilian infrastructure and ukraine often with devastating glide bones, leaving behind a trail of destruction. such weapons are difficult to detect. and russian war plains opened release them quite far from the front line. so the most effective option would be to destroy the aircraft. and i mean, you shouldn't in the air or on the ground. and this is exactly what you create in force is
1:09 pm
a trying to do. last week they launched what they say was the worst largest long range strike on russian air bases. with more than a 100 drones of attacking 3 major airfields inside russia. those bases hosting were planes targeting ukraine with glad bombs and missiles, including the hypoth sony congested rock hits these satellite images show the aftermath of one of these strikes in bery so glanced at least 2 hangers, were destroyed, to fight through just a roll. so feasible, but it's not clear if they were damaged and this is what happened after a similar drugs try come the air base and leap. it's early in august, hundreds of glide bombs were reported to have been destroyed in the attack. you craze! incursion into rushes chorused region is also believed to be helping
1:10 pm
a chief these go. as i was in the news, ukraine does not have the possibility of it because of the conducted long range of strikes used to the web. and also that we possess the defense from the chairs or the new mind because that's the, could you send it to you? there are no such decisions here. i am therefore you up with the fence forces are needed to free those border areas from the russian contingent are you and if you think of carry out strikes against 0 to be creative to use. ok, you know, some found only say the incursion can increase ukraine's range for striking russian air bases. for now, west and allies lead me to the use of its long range weapons like attacking a what do you crane says to bet account a russian air strikes, but it really needs is the green light from allied weapon suppliers to use them against targets deep inside russia for more,
1:11 pm
i'm joined now by the 2nd most of the she's a senior lecturer, insecurity and development at kings college london. it's good to have you with us today. what is your take? does the ukranian progress that's being reported? in course? does it help reduce the threat of russian era strikes that are targeting ukraine? right? yes, it does. partly because rush it because a incursion that ukraine has caught, a dog has also been accompanied by the destruction as you showed of mary many f to, you know, these are very far away from curves and it shows that our ukrainians are being able to use drones to attract these are air bases, so dresser and extend, the whole operation is supportive of this effort to prevent area and attacks are in to ukraine. but the main objective of these uh, parents incursion is not primarily related to that. it's primarily related to,
1:12 pm
as was mentioned by you and ask you today to create a sort of a buffer zone around the borders of ukraine and russia. so as to leave me a sort of the attacks on 2 plays any kind of, of weaponry and artillery systems further, further away. so it has, it does play a role in defending it, sort of the close of boulder areas to the north of sue me in ukraine. and the fact that we are seeing progress by you crate inside russia. what does it tell us? how vulnerable is rush at the moment in my thinking that the area rush raised quite vulnerable. it is most vulnerable in the solving the result, the don't boss where they seem to be advancing towards the very important sort of have of across bar to in the area of of course, they are much more venerable. they didn't have really and effective defensive
1:13 pm
structure. they had primarily reserve forces and composed primarily of conscripts idols. so as we know, the sort of last month battalion with children fighters and others. and it took them quite some time to create a more effective force that could challenge they, you bring and presence in this area. i thought of, you know, they were sending. uh, you know, addition one full size uh from uh, either either uh, battalions or an other sectors including sofa marie special and full sized even apparently a regimen from the space focused. so it shows that they really don't have the necessary forces unless they divert them from the areas of that don't boss another . another area as an example of use your credit so nor a 100 kids. so one of the objectives most of the separation in course, wants to see if that could help divert forces from areas where the russians are, are exhibiting a lot of pressure on primarily from the bottom. now they haven't really diverted
1:14 pm
many poses from they don't boss, but the reports show that or though they're creating a lot of pressure on but could oh, if there is less pressure, for example, around trustees. yeah. so it seems like it has had an effect over the phone visual phones. ukraine continues to play with his western backers to allow their weapons to be used to strike targets deeper inside russia. i know you've said before that these limitations amount to ukraine having to fight the war with one hand tied behind its back. do you see any chance of these limitations being lift and when i think there is another pressure now, especially as a result of this operation included, which is shown back to the ukrainians when there is a brand, as of right weaponry year on their ability to train forces that can be extremely effective because this was a very profession ration on many levels in terms of intelligence gathering and
1:15 pm
terms of organizing. and mobilizing falls is cutting out would record combined on forces attacks. so they have, they have shown their profession of they've shown they can kind of reward the initiative when they find sort of a week's photo along the borders with russia. so these kind of playing favor of allowing ukrainians to you do noises full size and also what it has shown is that russia hasn't re escalated significantly. so one of the worries of we americans when not a knowing or they use of long range we started seeing side russia, is that these kind of need to further explanation. but what they separate from her operation has shown is that actually we haven't seen a massive escalation of a russian. that costs also because they do not have the ability to escalate or not further on. we know so far that they are very cultures about leading towards sort of nuclear escalation. i mean, that is something they probably would want to avoid as they would want to avoid engaging and i would direct me, it was made to
1:16 pm
a member of states. so i think that this could be an opportunity, it's still not happening. we know the refresher or former prime minister or boys johnson wrote an article this weekend putting pressure on the americans. but it seems a burden. ministration of this moment is very worried about stating about escalations . okay, timothy a sucker, most o senior lecture in security and development of kings college is always we appreciate your time and your analysis. thank you. thank you. still, a german government spokesman has denied that germany is turning its back on ukraine events, despite plans to have its budget for aid to ukraine in 2025. the spokesman of both gong bush now said the reports that germany was reducing its support for ukraine were, quote, simply inaccurate. you had of it despite plans to cut spending to ukraine transfer or lock schultz is fully committed to backing key for as long as necessary.
1:17 pm
alright, let's go to our chief political correspondent need a has and maybe she can give us some clarity here in nina is germany planning to restrict new military aid to ukraine or not? who was saying what you as well yes, they also the media reports over the weekend. no, they're not said the german government today in that press conference. so what's behind all this the german government is currently putting together its budget for next year and that's always intense. negotiations, but of course especially so in a time of crisis like the current on this. yeah, germany spending 8000000000 year as a military aid for ukraine in the draft that was sent to parliament on friday last week. it says that the government is planning to spend full 1000000000 next year, so that would mean having it. and in addition, that was the last to buy the finance minister to the defense and the foreign ministers, telling them that no more additional military support would be approved next year. so that of course left them to interpret that as a constant military spending. but the government in a press conference today,
1:18 pm
so that again, that, that was not true. and that the sticking to that problem is, is that the, placing the hopes instead on another way of financing you've changed military needs next year. and here they're talking about what the g 7 agreed a few weeks ago. that a $50000000000.00 loan would be set up for you. credit that is based on proceeds from frozen russian assets. and the problem here is that the details of that fund, when that will become the operational, i'm not clear, the government is hoping that that is going to be the case by the end of day. so you early next it and the government did do everything they could to sound hopeful, but of course we simply do not know. so we're dealing with a situation where there's just lots of room for interpretation. speculation. yeah, we're dealing with politicians who are dealing with public money. we know that the german government is a staunch supporter of ukraine. i'm wondering how much back is there among the general population at the moment. what east germans in particular, are significantly more critical of items deliveries to ukraine,
1:19 pm
then west germans. and we've got a couple of figures here. i'm only 28 percent overall and all of them in a call for reduction in military aid that is according to uphold by a public broadcast that said to f, but it's 45 percent in the east. so they want to military aid, reduced 41 percent of respondents in all of germany, even in favor of more weapons for ukraine and the vast majority, 86 percent of germans are aware that this war is not coming to an end very soon. that the, it is not very likely that we'll see negotiations between russia and ukraine in the coming months. but the spokes person today that we so rejected as a, and i quote infamous the accusation that the government was deliberately sending mixed signals to germans regarding military support for ukraine. and we are talking about an important period for devin politics where it's only 2 weeks. and then
1:20 pm
we'll have very important regional elections in 3 eastern german states where of course, support for military a to ukraine is not very popular. w. c. political correspondent, you know, and so with the latest here in berlin, name is always thank you, start. let's take a look. now it's more world news headlines. the philippines is accused beijing of unlawful and aggressive maneuvers in the south china sea after yet another class, vessels from china and the philippines were seen colliding and footage shared by china is the state broadcast, or the filipino coast guard said. the resulting structural damage was the biggest calls by china's action so far. at least one person is dining 6 others are missing . after a luxury yacht sink off the coast of sicily, 15, others were rescued local media to say that the vessel capsized after an unexpectedly violent store. it's believed for in tours were on board magistrates
1:21 pm
from venezuela. as a supreme court have examined documents from july's disputed presidential vote, electronic commission declared incumbent nicholas madeira. the winner for the opposition claims the vote was stolen and that's where he lives at home and abroad, protested the result over the weekend. she is staying with politics, us vice president couple of harris who has taken her presidential campaign to pennsylvania. one of the key states likely to determine the result of november's presidential election. now harris embark on a bus tour ahead of the democratic national convention in chicago, which begins today. she'll be confirmed as the parties candidate for november's presidential election. democratic norman e. camelot harris touch down in pennsylvania. a battle ground state that the policy needs to win. again, this presidential race and one, the rival donald trump took in 2016 paris and her running mate. tim was still
1:22 pm
