the, the business b, w. news live from valentin barranca obama as far as the crowd at the democratic convention in chicago, putting a come a lot higher as twists on his trademarks. slight. yes. the address in the presidential hopeful also coming up on the program in russia, recruits new soldiers and called the scripts as the trains cross the incursion, shifts the narrative of to but some russian families. i'm concerned about what it

could mean to them. and instability breeds tensions in bangladesh. the hindu minority feels on the thread, despite government pledges to protect them, while ordinary people try to ensure the vulnerable remain sites the money keeps mckinnon. welcome to the program. it was another big, nice, the democratic national convention in the us with broadcom. michelle obama delivering headlines speeches. the former president told fellow democrats in chicago the torch has been paused to come into harris. and that it's time to get to work, to elect to as president, as it was, the obama as night receiving got a rock star. welcome at the democratic national convention.

the president buck obama bugler rousing endorsement of democratic presidential hopeful common law head is we do not need 4 more years of bluster and bumbling and chaos stores. we are ready for both obama strongly criticized the republican candidate, former president, done his drum. there's a 78 year old billionaire who has not stopped whining about his problems. says he wrote down his name escalator 9 years ago. it has been a consequence stream of upgrades and grievances that that's actually been getting

worse now that he was afraid of losing comma. for years, donald trump did everything in his power to try to make people be or us see his. his limited narrow view of the world made him feel threatened by the existence of too hard work and a highly educated, successful people. the head is really formally accept the bodies domination for president at the convention on thursday. it will make her the 1st woman of color to lead a major body presidential ticket. the software ready go easy, see it being the presidential. these to get behind head his head, but the support of the if it goes like the obama democrats are buzzing. but the whole and teens. all right, let's get moved from off of my washington correspondent. i mean,

he says he joins me now. i'm doing great. so you, i mean, so obviously a lot of energy, a lot of excitement. what are your main takeaways from day to the dnc was the night of christmas. they are with the obama is very popular stars in the united states still after so many years. 2008 was such a big moment for the democratic party, the biggest moment in my life time, any way that it seemed like what the democratic party is trying to do here is, is remind people what politics could be like when obama swept the country and that's 2008 election on the message of hope in change, and they're trying to transfer this christmas tacoma harris. she's pretty much unknown for most americans, despite the fact that she is sitting vice president. so it was all about building her character, saying that she represents a new direction. obama. a brock of almost said that you represent a new chapter. michelle obama said hope is making a come back. so trying to take that word,

hope and put it on calmer. harris to get her elected. so a lot about her character and in opposition start contrast to donald trump for they spend a lot of time attack they did, didn't they? i mean, they really focused on trump, you know, but i mean, in the way that preaching to the converted at this, at this conventional they. so what is the point of these kind of very pointed messages about trump in about the opposition, while the message was for the democrats in the room, they got a lot of cheers and lot of energy out of that. but i think they're also appealing to republicans who look back on the obama years as a, as a class. the time if you will. republicans who have rejected trump along the lines which is bad behavior. so we saw stephanie griffin, who was former press secretary for trump, who said behind closed doors, this maliciousness that he uses to attack his enemies. he also attacks his supporters. so she was trying to castigate him as a kind of

a bad guy in the democratic party is positioning so as the big tent party of america, patriotism, which is kind of new for the democrats. republicans always wanted that mantle and they wanted to make it look like, you know, trump needs to be rejected and what really needs to be rejected as this politics of grievance, which they've accused trump of hang onto talking about character matches, it makes a difference. and a lot of the excitement that was saying about pamela is, you know, about who she is, but she's a woman, her choice of running mate, tim, rules. but what about concrete policies? i mean, what do we know about her plans if she does, guy likes it. well, she's in a tough position here because while she's projecting yourself is hoping change, and, you know, she's a fairly young black woman. it would be a new direction for united states. she has a sitting vice president. so what she is trying to do here is project a new direction, but at the same time, not throw

a bite in under the train here and not. and you know, take credit for the, the things that americans like about the bottom ministration. but distance yourself from the policies that they don't like and so far are strategist seems to be staying very abstract and not giving details about our policy. if you go to our website, there's no policy on there. you can't see what she stands for. she's refused to do interviews with the journalist, which was okay in the beginning, but i think a lot of journalists are getting fed up with that. she's answered a few questions on the tarmac a couple of times, but she hasn't done any mean press conferences. so people are still wondering what her policies are, she's represented women's choice for abortion, and star, a contrast to trump, and she wants to clarify that into law. we know that she wants to build new housing . she wants to carry on the policies of by them to make tax breaks for the middle class, but not for the rich, but beyond all that, it still has remained abstract and we're looking forward to the next couple of days . a lot of people want to see if tim welts tomorrow or this evening in the united

states at the convention, will come up with a solid policy proposals and then thursdays her big day where she'll take the stage and maybe make it a lot more clear because politics of grievance might sound bad, but a lot of americans have grievances and they want this address and we'll see if she's able to do that. i mean, is this corresponding formal, washington correspondent? i mean thank you so much. now russian or sorry, sees, say, add defense systems shut down several ukrainian drones. the targeted most go overnight. russians defense ministry set. it destroyed a total of $45.00 drones over russian territory, including 11 of the capitol region of goes mass at the city faced one of the biggest strong attacks ukraine has launched against the capital sofa and dw correspondence on you found that that has more now from keith hi,

sonia now has ukraine reacted to these alleged drug and attacks that they said anything yet. the ones that you create in military has not come into the as yet on those electrical and attacks over most going over those other regions which are closer to with border with russia. now these kinds of joint attacks of a most school are quite rare, but we did see a similar attack and made the field when russian officials say they said they had destroyed to go outside the capital, which also led to some temporary restrictions on 2 major efforts. in, in the capital there. and now your queen usually does not clear of officially claimed responsibility for any kind of report to the tax on russian soil. but it does regularly carry out, don't strikes on russia's oil refineries on it's on. it's f e as in gas and installations. these often on targets, which are located several kilometers, 700 kilometers, promise model. and ukraine says it's aim there was for the tiny age for what it

says. i'll repeat it the tax my last year on its own energy infrastructure and it says that in there is often to kind of destroy the rushes, logistics, it's supplied routes and kind of dismantled rushes flight capabilities. i'm in recent days, we've really seen an escalating amount of attacks my washer and ukraine on each other's oil and industrial facilities. that's rise. i mean, you train is advancing in costs, but it's russia that does seem to have the momentum in the east doesn't to it. so can you tell us more about that? that's right. i mean, they're both suggest that you created groups are kind of entering forward in that course region in russia, ukraine's army chief clinics on the subsea says this troops of now move forward about 20 to 35 kilometers a deeper into that. typically they say he says the non controller more than 90 settlements, but they don't, they also facing increase resistance that are reports that the washer is now moving

. some fits troops from other directions to kind of strength and it's positions that are within ukraine. um, in the eastern donates region, russian forces are certainly advancing steadily of the claim to have no captured the tone of new york. this is a small settlement, which has been for 2 of us since 2014 that you're pregnant military has not admitted to that also. but i told him that he said washing forces are attacking the attacking in the area of the seed. washer is also deploy additional troops to the front line in the east and one of the targets for the russian pulses. there is the tone of across which is a crucial logistics hub for the ukranian ministry. i'm which is located on a mean on the intersection of a mean highway that supplies the queen troops and frontline towns. but it's also used to move casualties to what's the city of naples. sonya, thank so much for that update. that's the w sun. you found the color reporting from teeth. ukraine's incursion has added

a further incentive for russia to recruit soldiers for the front line. one of the motivations for soldiers to sign up does seem to be money with cash being offered to volunteers, but it appears that new recruits are being sent to cook, which is causing some defense amongst the families. did you? these men are ready to join the ranks of the russian army after your cranes incursion. at least according to russian stay tv. it will wish it almost as firstly to help my country. my people beat the fascists and get back the territory. they seized to the big games of watching a typical propaganda narrative on state tv. prussia says it's fighting what it claims are ukraine and nazis on its own soil. the news report claims money is, is what's driving people to sign a contract with the defense ministry. even though it does mention a one time payment of $2000000.00 roubles almost 200000. average russians would

have to work at least 2 years to earn that kind of money in poorer regions even longer. so there is a part of the population coming from the blue wrist regions, and it was the beneficiaries of the war. we could not signal all that money is important for these people. the large amounts of money, which i suppose, which i promoted today by the russian officials in exchange of the human life is something which is conceited in both sides of the deal as the kind of acceptable deal. ukraine says it has captured hundreds of freshman soldiers since the start of its incursion. 80 percent of them are believed to be conscripts or after ukraine's 1st advances on russian territory. mothers of drafted soldiers called on president poor to to remove them out of the course region. now this chechen special forces commander has harsh words for those parents. i use the vs. if you're 18 year

old children are already serving. and do you think they shouldn't defend their homeland when it's being attacked by the enemy, or to have one question for you? what to use you and your children to this country? russia says around 6000 soldiers have been killed, and ukraine, experts believe the number to be much higher with some estimates, putting them at around 300000 the russian defense industries. now running as like these reading real man belongs here to recruit more soldiers. the major strategy of the russian government for today is the pointing the mos mobilization must mailed to him about his ation in the whole russian population and trying to uh, categorize to target mobile and rebuttal, a tourist and the not the productive category. so the population, you know,

the to filling the gaps in the, um, on the roofs and at least according to russian state tv, there is still enough volunteers left to even triple yeah. flux for russian and g o . cold get lost, that office active support, the russian men and women who want to avoid conscription and escape the will help is give them free of charge through an anonymous telegram channel. welcome to dw, thanks so much for your time today. the report we just saw featured russian propaganda footage, presenting russian men as you get to fight, you get to defend the country. what is your perspective on that as well? uh, apparently we should say that uh for the last 2 weeks saves uh ukrainian troops out of goose creek and uh, lots of resident recruits young boys who, uh, 18 or 19 years old. uh,

real close to go that the codes and uh roughly lou uh put in small pieces. uh such extra they can go that goes to the quick lane so called uh, empty calories duration uh in co scrimmage and then they'll get under brands. and uh, such a little um, that guide or fundraising permit screwed them too fast. uh, recruits. go that to send that with to uh, in 2 cases. if for recruits uh, in the, on a lot less than full months. and if they have an a war and the middle it rates speciality if they are already some kind of middle for a specialist. so i just thought i'd just like to clarify so that we understand

exactly what you're saying. so that to me to say, and i believe initially promised that conscripts wouldn't be involved in combat operations, but now people are being forced to fight that. yes, of course. yes, of course. and if they usually put his case by then is verbs and it's ex of simpler, different things. his says that he rode flat and a recruit. go that. but at the same time it's science recruits to cause they'll go to them. but do we know how many of being sent that as well we may say about we may speak about thousands of people because we at least we know about 202 and we're done to ha, people send from petersburg the same uh, number of recruits from uh, at least 4 different regions from moscow, from sort of los come from different,

you know, lots for to and for the last couple list entering side they. right. so we could speak about at least 1000 people. i think it is the number of for it 1st progress center they read you and what are you hearing about the message that the russian defense ministry is using to, to put pressure on people to fight. cuz you say people are being forced. how are they being forced? well, uh, primarily it is better. recruit some very simple people to the police. because it is very young guys, 18 or 19 years old. they are in very close society. uh they uh, in the company of elderly people who have no experience in leaving infectious infect society. so they simply do what they

want to come down. these people are saying, well, you may have signed the contract, you may raise on some money. you may go home after that, and of course they do it and don't think that signing the contract that it falls to go to what's called less time to go to the town. but as to the place as bodies, mental preparation are being held nowadays. even chevrolet a from the russian and g o, cold get low. thank you so much for your time. it all right, let's take a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today and is really police of clash with hundreds of orthodox jewish protests as in jerusalem, where they've gathered to oppose conscription. already dues have long been exempted from military service, but that was until the supreme court ruled in june. but they must be drafted. the

taliban have bought un special russell to richard bennett from entering us down a stone. they've accused him of spreading propaganda against the country. bennett has previously said that the telephone's treatment of women and girls could amount to a crime against humanity. now sometimes a desk which has been going through political up people in the weeks since prime minister shade casino resigned and fled to india as a pauses including those among the hidden do minority have faced retaliatory attacks, hindus and bangladesh have faced violence during previous political change. but some citizens taking it upon themselves to try and protect and do homes and temples . this burned down home belongs to 55 years away. i'd open them. how are you doing? well, how did a spot of the him do? minority of bundle of dish? he's a supported of the former prime minister. she a casino just steve, after has seen a flip, the country, an angry ball, strong piece of residence,

anticipating the attack. he and his family had already fled to safety. army though, because from this i'm vegas. good. when you accumulated so much stuff and created a home to body, when somebody buns it down, you don't want to go back there to talk it. but i still want to go back to my house because i've lived there for so long. but the goons and the looting, they've got it out. it has made me afraid. i sometimes hear that a part of these attacks have instant fear. amongst some people in the community that comprises about 8 percent of fund like this 170000000 people in did them government safe? it's clear politics and other than religion is behind some of these attacks icon. it will sleep and muslims in those. but this christians and find the people who live here in bangladesh together, most of us is going to do the order of the incidents. i'm motivated by politics,

not religion that i've, i've heard that disabled and i will look at those responsible must be brought to justice. one of the most of the joys of has we have this message to minority communities of them because we are showing that the people along the, the government along the, the, the stand by you have one of the sort of models along with the just told us that almost the process of that, but that hasn't to going to display the feet and misleading information online with far right into when says have shared ford speed used exaggerating the violence. it has also created panic among, from inducing bangladesh. many students and even lucas have stepped in to provide security for him to neighborhoods here at the package. but he then put in tucker the services continue with students on guard, day and night. i know that there are some real problems happens though,

some temple binary and there are some houses. minority houses have been after shut as well, but in that case, i will say definitely you for the major do will not come forward to perfect. the miners has been the problem and the amount of the bargaining houses are tenfold, the affected people will be very, very much green. the indian government has pledged to protect hindus that and the growing number of ordinary people coming to the defense. it has been insured by them that have been him to come into these remain safe since i'm on the store. i'm drawing now in the studio by my colleague, know me conrad from the w's investigator investigative a team. welcome naomi. so we just heard in that report the false information is circulating in connection with these attacks on him. do minorities in bangladesh. tell us more about how that's happening, right. i mean,

just to be clear that have been attacks on hindus a lot of them, however, well members or supporters of the a while meeks, it's really difficult to say with these religiously both divisions attacks or what the government is saying politically motivated the tax. but what we're seeing on social media is really it seems a targeted campaign pushing this narrative of communal violence. there's a lot of misinformation which has been debunked by bangladesh. you know, that outlets. and what we also see is that a lot of these social media accounts pushing this actually it seems based in india . so a lot of it is coming from india and it's being picked up by others, including mainstream media and india. why is that? why is that coming from india? well, india is long being a stuart supposed to of people. and i'll explain the situate, garcia, who's portrayed himself as the defend of the secular bank with us. and it has to be said she was extremely go to a government was extremely good camping down as luminous violence in the very brutal way as we've reported in the past. so

a lot of people disappeared. there were lots of ex, i'm traditional coming in, but it broke down the the, as with mr. attacks and also internationally, she was very good at portraying herself as this defend of, of the sex club in the best. even though in, in bangladesh there's been some opposition to the very end do nationalist policies under the moody. but india has clearly lost the main ally in bangladesh and that could be driving it as well as in the pasta has been to me the violent. so it's not completely just out of the realm to say that things might still happen violent, slight celeste, correct? mm hm. so it says definitely an uncertain situation at the moment in bangladesh, isn't it? we're hearing that the police are going back to what now they were on strike and tell us about how the current interim government is going to try to restore security in the country. i mean,

this is one of the main challenges together with the economy ends, accountability for, for this happened in the last couple of weeks and months and years before the digital system is completely broke down the traffic police literally come back after appraisal attacks on security forces regular police literally coming back, but isn't entirely back yet. so there's a big black to move security and judicial accountability at the moment. these are huge tasks, but the government faces and has to do with quite quickly so that people don't get frustrated and angry. may get against loss on to the st. naomi. conrad from dw is investigative team. thanks so much naomi. and that is all we have time for, but to stick around if you count on. i'm next made in germany. looks at the tech of tomorrow, including a focus on a bikes that's coming up to a short break on monday. cooper's mckinnon. thanks so much for watching. dw, i will be back in about helping out with more instructional headlines to do. join
