israel is believed we have assassinated mos leader is mile. mia? in to run both hezbollah and iran have vowed to retaliate to guard against such attacks. israel relies on a multi layered air defense system. pro 2020 full israel, sustained a massive mit solve by rush from iran. more than 300 drones rockets and miss solves form a coordinate to, to attack the israel's ad, defend systems. it's the greatest challenge yet. israel claims it intercepted, 99 percent of those hostile missiles and trains. so how does a cheap that kind of success? it's down to a multi layered defense approach comprising a number of moving parts. in some cases, quite literally. truck towed missile units formed in the most layer, the and a bit tackles short range threats such as rockets and voltage and was developed
12:09 pm
withheld from the us. it's of interest that did thousands of broke it since it was instituted in 2011 and israel claims it has a 90 percent success rate. next comes david sling the mid range threats that is designed to shoot down ballistic missiles followed from between 40 kilometers to 300 kilometers away. again, it was developed in collaboration with the us. and the outcome baseline is the arrow for the long range ballistic missiles. it operates outside the site must fit in space, which allows for the safe disposal of any non conventional heads. as regardless of the methods, intercepting rockets is a costly business. the cost of $1.00 arrow intercept to me, so it's between $2.00 and $3500000.00. according to media reports, a 110 of them we used to defend against the radiant attack. suggesting a cost of $385000000.00. the mid range rootkits from the david sling system are
12:10 pm
about $1000000.00 each. estimates put the cost at $550000000.00 to $1100000000.00 just for the 8 pro operation. there is another important layer to israel, apple as a key pulse of its defense picture. and in addition to all this, that renew tools coming online, such as the legs are powered and beam set to be integrated into israel. multi layered and seemingly successful defense system. back here in europe, german police say a 26 year old syrian man has confessed of carrying out a knife attack in the western city of zone and gun that killed 3 people and wounded 8 others. earlier, the so called is lumnick said claimed it was behind friday nights attack on a festival, but provided new evidence, police and prosecutors say the suspect turned himself in and they are investigating

12:12 pm
celebrating peacefully together they wanted to target in communal celebration. i stuff and celebrations that are so typical this city a lot more so than almost anywhere else. the so called is lennox state group, is claimed responsibility for the attack. a claim that see it to be verified. the festival was part of zoning and $650.00 of anniversary celebrations. remaining events have been cancelled as political leaders, appeal fee unity. that's why i'm making an urgent appeal. the hate of this terrible event insulins the community in these difficult hours. we must have them together who gets guidelines like she understood it. and so i'm seeing zoning in is a city in morning on a square with facilities should have taken place. crowds now gather to commemorate the victims of friday's attack, dw reported louis sanders has been at the scene in zillow again this weekend. louis,
12:13 pm
it bears repeating 3 people in total have been arrested. one of them the attacker suspected. what can you tell us about all the suspense? so last night, police said that the main suspect turned himself in, and they had clear indications that it was that the, the main suspect because he allegedly confessed to the crimes and was still wearing clothes that he had had worn while communing the attack. and so these are kind of the main details that we know from authorities. now we have heard that he is a 26 year old syria national, who arrived in germany in 2022 and had applied for asylum. and he was, and his, he was granted a subsidiary protection while his asylum process was being considered. however, their new details emerging there should be go a jeremy national news magazine recently and just
12:14 pm
a couple of minutes ago reported that he was supposed to be ported according to any use asylum rules. that's because he had effectively entered the youth through bull guerria. now the way that works is that even though even though he had arrived and applied for seligman, germany the as a silent process should be taken over by the country in which he 1st entered the e. u. now that would be bulgaria. according to these reports, however, because authorities were not able to locate and locate him within the dean of the kind of duration uh that they needed to, uh, effectively that these rules had expired. and now germany had taken control, which is when he effectively kind of re surfaced and was given this subsidiary protection, while his asylum seeking process was further considered. now, the 2 others that were detained, what we know is that one is a 15 year old,
12:15 pm
who is said to have have known about the attack before it had happened. and he is being detained under charges that he had information of a crime and did not reported. and the other one was a suspect who was arrested in a refugee center here. and so ling game, but we don't have further details about that person. but all i can say though, is that the main suspect now is in detention. and german authorities are looking at what is the best way to go forward in prosecuting these crimes. lewis all day we've been reporting that of course this town is in morning. how are people coping? there's just an over whelming sense of sadness. if you could see behind me, you would see several people taking their time to weep. remember, these are these members of their community lighting, candles lane down, flowers, same prayers. and, and i think this is just, you know,
