5:02 pm
spelled as a few hours ago. we informed the families that the idea of located the bodies of their loved ones and it underground tunnel and rough. uh huh. colgate blasio, the idea of a hobby, shall need to harbor initial assessment suggest they were brutally murdered by how much terrorist and have them shortly before we reach them this month. that's all they were kidding out. the life on the morning of october, 7th by the terrace organization will come us our book to be on a day is going up the whole from us. one of the hostages was 23 year old, is really american hersh. goldberg, paul, and who was seized by how much militants and a music festival in southern israel during the attack. on october, the 7th speaking through d. w. in december, his mother was full of hope. he would soon be released. i'm not, i pay all the time that i know there are kind good guys and civilians who are also caught in this horrible situation that were caught in. and i want to pray and
5:03 pm
hope that there's someone kind there being kind to hers and to the other, you know, innocent people who are also being held there in a terrible situation. such words would resonate with people at these riley and tell of the health just hours before the adf. and now it found the 6 bodies go for months, protests, or is have been demanding a deal to release all hostages. they accuse the government of putting its political survival above the lives of israeli citizens. all the care about these, the politics and they didn't approve to, to do a deal with the would come us and so our loved ones are still there. and thirdly, we don't see the horizon and don't know when they will be back with us. these really prime minister said the killing of hostages showed him us didn't want to deal a little something else i say to the how must her wrists who murdered our hostages
5:04 pm
. and i say to their leaders, your blood is on your hand, or we will not rest and we will not be silent. we will pursue you. we will find you and we will settle the score with you. the conferred depths of 6 more hostages are likely to further galvanized the protest with the opposition already vile when to bring israel's economy to a stand still did have these correspondent, tonya kramer's been covering the story for us from jerusalem ton yet can you tell us more about the protests we've been seeing after the recovery of these hostages bodies as well. i would say ever since the news broke overnight that uh, 6 bodies, uh, where i found in a tunnel in the office there was a lot of, you know, its the expression of anger, rage and extreme sadness among of course the relatives. but also among many
5:05 pm
of the protesters that we're seeing here also tonight that have been cold for this most protests actually to come out and to stay out in the streets. uh uh, from uh, tonight on the citizens that uh, these uh, hostages, most of them wells of younger age could have been released a long time ago, at least also in this deal that has been on the table for the past amounts. and also the circumstances that are now coming to light that basically they have been surviving for 10 months in, in, in extremely difficult situation. and where killed reported to the only a couple of days ago. so this has made people here in the stream, the n re and their play being the government of for uh, letting them die. and also be heard from the hostages. totally a forum that is an umbrella group representing most of the families of saying,
5:06 pm
you know, the government simply abandoned them. and as you heard, i mean that has been these calls at the needs to be a deal. now these are the demands of those protesters. no matter what, no matter the cost, so no matter how many policy and prisoners would have to be released for that and that the war comes to hold. because those hostages that remain in gaza simply have no more time. and in addition to these protests, as well as main labor union, has also called a general strike for monday. and another effort to pressure the government to reach a deal. how influential do you think that will be as well? i think this is senior by many that this could be potentially a possibly a game changer, the main labor union. the history world is one of the most powerful unions they have called for as tried from 6 am local time in the morning. that means that the
5:07 pm
country might come to, you know, x tribute will slow down or even a shut down. we also understand that the a ben curry on airport will be shut down from 8 am in the morning. we heard from some of the municipalities like tele beef. they say they will join in the strikes for itself for kindergarten. so because some schools will close or earlier. and we also know that some of the private, a small and medium sized businesses, they have said they will shut down or will leave it to the employees whether they will show up or, or not. or they want to go to the protests as well as some of the uh, high tech firm. so people are clearly, you know, us to come out and masses to the streets and, and stay there and, and protest. and tanya, i'm just curious how far this will go is really the prime minister benjamin netanyahu. he has apologized to the family of one of the deceased officers hostages
5:08 pm
. do you think that suggests in any way that he has rethinking his approach to negotiations as well? i think this is way too early uh to say, but um yeah, it has. uh, it's a, it's around move, but i mean, he said he was a sorry for not being able to bring the last one home. but he didn't say much about the deal and he blamed on us for a getting murdering the the hostages there. and i think for those that are protesting or that out there, they are saying this is not really genuine or this is too little and too late. and it's unclear whether he will change his strategy. i mean, he has been of blaming, ha c was to continue the war. he has not in the eyes of, you know, his critics accepted the deal that's on the table even on test tonight. there was a cabinet vote and one of the most controversial sticking points of this to you, the a presence of it's really troops the philadelphia corey on the philadelphia,
5:09 pm
colorado. that's the border area between gaza and egypt. and so there was a vote on that and many have said, you know, this is actually a not good for the hostages because this is exactly the opposite of what the government should be doing. so it is not clear whether this pressure will work out because this is what's, you know, the protest assessing are every hour is too much and the hostages need to be, uh, need to be brought home. tanya, thank you. as always for your reporting that is dw tanya kramer in jerusalem to let's take a quick look now at some other world news headlines. medical staff have become vaccinating more than 600000 children in gaza against polio. the territory is recorded. it's 1st case in over 2 decades. israel's military offensive has disrupted health care and gaza. israel says 3 police officers were killed when a gunman opened fire on their vehicle near the west bank city of hebron is really
5:10 pm
army conduct, is conducting a large scale operation in the occupied territory. health officials say at least 20 to palestinians have been killed since it began while voting is underway and regional elections, i could see a far right party when the most of the seats in post worked german history. branches of the a, f, d, or alternative for germany are classified as right wing extremist by germany's intelligence agency. but the party is projected to make big games in the eastern states of saxony and the range of the mainstream conservatives and a new populous party could also put on a strong showing while the w has team coverage of these regional elections, we have data. these mikaela costs are in fact these regional capital dressed and as nina has a, standing by an effort, that's the capital of syringe. you're welcome to both, you know, i understand you're out in front of a restaurant where the f
5:11 pm
d has been meeting today. as i said, their pores meeting the polls in syringe. yeah. can you tell us a little bit about what they stand for and how they have become so popular? they're indeed, i'm standing outside the restaurant where the a, if the members and they're invited guests are going to be together to receive the, the 1st projections and the exit polls. once an old polling stations are closed, that's in a box in the hours time. and we're not allowed in unfortunately, that's because the ac have denied access to some journalists who then to day, if the, then the court ruled in favor of the journalist on the a. if the then turn this events into private events, i'm standing outside and the safety was founded as a party 11 years ago as a, you're a skeptic party. they went and this was of course, against the background of the global financial crisis, but it has radicalized over the years and quite considerably so. and there's
5:12 pm
a push for radicalization was largely done by a group around the mine who's now the lead candidate here in the range of young tucker. he's somebody who a court has ruled, can be labeled a fascist. and his group here, the regional a if the chapter and can be cost. so it can be called a case of right wing extremists. that's something that the intelligence services have said that can painting on a very on to immigration and a policy, the anti establishment, the pro russian. so they have definitely and grown and strings here in this state. and they could, yes, they could even take away the victory here in syringe tonight. and now having said that, it doesn't mean that even if they come out on top that they will enter the government . because so far, we're still dealing with what we call the so called firewall. that's the agreement between all the more traditional democratic policies. we've all said that they want
5:13 pm
nothing to do with its power right group. but as the policy is growing and strength, of course, they're also the voice is getting louder, that are saying we need to have a more pragmatic approach. lots of people apparently of voting fold them. so possibly this is something where we could see what was his head movement, where the conservatives in particular and challenged to define just how strong that definition of the 5, what, what really is you're absolutely right. that's where all eyes will be today. another place where the f d, a is expected to perform quite well as in saxony, mckayla, you're reporting from there. can you tell us more broadly what their success indicates about the state of national politics in germany? well, it doesn't indicate as much as one would initially think, because these are 2 rather small eastern states. so in tougher seeing complete the german politics into this would be the tail wagging the dog. having said that,
5:14 pm
and the far right, if the policy here is having a net connect race with the conservative, see you on the mac holes policy. and is it notable absence of the policies that current is for the central coalition that actually runs germany or last, salters, or governing coalition at the greens, the social democrats out or in the low single digits. they might not even be in this parliament, and the free democrats projects is not to make it into it any way. so if these are the central government or sold on the fit, the defensive as he is already struggling to keep his coalition together. and it could potentially strengthen the conservative view. it's opposition the, the fee for the math, if the seaview months has to come a head of the far as a, if the policy, if the kinds of music such man who actually has pretty good popularity rating, see it actually manages to demonstrate that yes,
5:15 pm
if the conservative who can keep the fall right? space in germany. well, thank you so much. it to both of you for your reporting. that was the w as mckayla clifton are in dresden and nina has a for us in the air force. and that is your show. thank you so much for watching the various you know, just to have a site and make the right decision to dw news. i'm in the ground can follow my been expecting me to have a video immediately.
