a foundation tour of the asia pacific said to be the longest trip of his papacy. plus, also coming up monsoon, ranging and a southeast in india, floods claim dozens of lives, is thousands play they homes. full cost is one of the more brain to come the i bid for the will and welcome is way the prime minister benjamin netanyahu as defending himself against accusations he's blocking. a hostage deal with thomas is came as protest as an israel took to the straits for a 2nd consecutive to have the most stunning honor to be hers is mamma. i'll take it and say thank you. i just wish it had been for longer needs really american was kidnapped at him. you is accessible. during the october 7 tomas terror

attacks these rarely military sets. his body was among 6 recovered in a tunnel in gaza over the weekend shortly after they were killed by him. us. they bid some minutes about us. we booked the prime minister, apologized for their dad. i'm ok, let me put i told the families was the one i repeat it tonight to a new. okay. if i ask for your forgiveness, so it's not for not bringing them back alive. a new quote. we will close, but we didn't succeed. the he added that no one is more committed to their release than he is and called criticism of his approach to a ceasefire. deal. shameful. in the depths of the hostages have spark 2 days of mass protests across is real. the demonstrators are calling for an immediate deal with some us to bring the remaining hostages home.

the rallies of book many major roads in and around tel aviv snarling traffic for hours. there have also been several clashes with police. the and this is the only way they can here we stop everything. that's the problem with the is riley government, they won't listen. they're not thinking about the government. on monday, the demonstrators were joined by thousands of striking workers who disrupted services at hospitals. schools as well as flights at israel's main airport. union leaders eventually called off the strike when the court said they had not given enough notice. it also called the work stoppage, politically motivated,

a middle east that'll ashanti was honest, has more on this so that and yahoo says he's sorry, but it doesn't sound like he's budgeting on anything. well, correct. i mean, did you know, seem like yesterday was him just trying to find more justifications and basically explain to these really where he stands and why he stands where he is. and in that aspect, why he's refusing to go ahead with a deal as much as the know the pressure on the street is, is going to now is very clearly not aiming to wind this down or to go to any succession of possibilities or the fire any time soon, and he's trying to explain why that's the case. and so anybody who was helping that the pressure of the public would be the one bringing it to now to shift his position. so he said a very defiant prime minister trying to actually gain support for it at, and that is quite the opposite of what we see from districts demand. and one of those sticking points is 14, killing me to buffalo and allow the addiction guys and bought a the philadelphia card or which these via these one to hold onto in order to have

some sort of control over the causes 50. is this one of his am, so one of the as well as that, well, that's what are we talking about the for the quarter. that's exactly the only way for gauze the outside. you know, the, on the board it is not with as well, but rather with egypt that to now claims that he, we saw whole presentation last night that this is the only way to make sure this from us and not we gain power get more munition fluid of small go through the border, but then a lot of, if you would talk to the defense minister or any other, you know, members leading members of the defense mechanism in israel. they say this is not the case as well. can always take philadelphia quarter again. if needed, and also they point to the fact that we take it as real about 8 months deep into the war and gaza before we even reach that part. so they say this is such a vital part of the war. how come it wasn't one of our 1st target, sort of trying to talk about nathan yells, attempt to use the for the record or as an excuse not to go on with a deal, rather than actually a sticking point. that is that meaningful and this is the deep priest we're seeing between the 2 now. and you know, the more professional

a no leaders of the war in the, in the end in the military. and this deep drift is, you know, it is, is such that they cannot do anything and that's in the out as don't want to do. do you see the public hearing them? and this is where you see the big distress, you know, on the streets. people do not trust anything else because they hear so many other people say does not have to be the case. and time is running out for the remaining hostages. just how desperate all those people in the streets they is wally. so when it, when it comes to getting some sort of deal, finishing this boy in comparison to the desperation among palestinians. what does not have some sort of an issue look and pulling numbers. most of those really supported deal, including everything that it will take. like giving up the controls and so that's also quite or you like releasing lots of mess, murder as you know, that has been, you know, captured by isabel. i kept in his room the prisoners many to support that but not netanyahu's base. and this is exactly what we're saying. he's catering to his base . he still has a very strong support in school lucian,

and that's what drives his decisions right now. he did as long as he doesn't have any stretch from his coalition. i doubt we will still continue our changing his stand on this and if you talk about, so thing is, know i also talk to colleagues and friends, they are the desperation and the frustration. the sadness in really, i mean it's, it's unless i mean it's the i was talking to some of them in the last day. they were hoping that what's happening on the streets and as well would bring to change . but obviously it was hard to break the heart saying we are not there yet. and what are we seeing the americans focusing more more in the competing there. um you know, the election campaign of how you know, by, by them trying to support harris. awesome. you know, gone so becomes a more minor topic for the world's arena for international attention and they feel being left behind, maybe rightful, be so and, and, you know, unfortunately we don't see where any of besides, now we need to keep in mind. we also have come across here and they don't seem to be too eager on going forward deal as well. but the people you know, on both sides and palestine and israel might be somewhere else. and when the

leaders are, and we don't see any, you know, any solution coming in the next, you know, couple of months and weeks ahead of us unfortunately, doesn't sound good at all. and i find it interesting. did you say that then? yeah. who was pandering to his face, but you know, is that going to secure in the future? while it does so far, it does. he doesn't have any stretch to his to his brain. i mean, there's nothing right now that makes you know when it's and he'll feel that he needs to go to election any time before the set date in 3 years. yeah. so far his whole install. well, johnny, thank you very much for the analysis. interesting stuff. you're welcome turning to other stories making use today as the united kingdom is suspending some weapons sales to as well as far as i've heard, treat david lam, he says it's true to concerns. they could be used in violation of international lowering garza, as well as defense minister says he's deeply disheartened by the decision in the democratic republic of congo at least a 129 people have been killed and thousands injured while trying to escape the

largest prison in the capital, kinshasa authorities say many died in a stampede, while others were shot dead. the prison has mold and 12000 inmates despite being built to hold. only 1500, does he go on go. yeah, has welcome russian president vladimir putin at the start of his 2 day visit despite an arrest warrant by the international criminal court. and the international lo mongolia is required to arrest the russian president to face charges of war crimes in ukraine. the court doesn't have a mechanism to enforce exports or ukraine is continuing its incursion into russia. the southern cost region, even though it's still losing territory in its own country. russian forces are advancing in east and ukraine with ukraine surprised and flooded mutual landscape. acknowledging the difficulties his troops are facing. but he says he will not give up on seized russian territory. he says it's part of a victory plan. he will submit to western allies in a visit to washington is that of the russian city of sue,

just now under ukrainian control part of the territory. it conquered, starting on august 6th, in a surprise operation that it claims took more than 1200 square kilometers in the course region. just before ukraine went on, the offensive president followed him. it was a landscape, spoke to french media about possible peace talks, touching on the topic of territorial concessions. ukraine will never give up its territory is because this would be an attack on the constitution. he said. decisions on ukrainian territorial integrity cannot be made by the president, but by the ukrainian people of the landscape piece plan, backed by the west, calls for russia to pull all of its troops out of your train as a pre condition for any talks. it also wants trials for war crimes and reparation payments for its part. russia demands that ukraine surrender for regents that moscow says it annex and claims as russian territory and ukraine would have to

officially renounce its desire to join nato, an impass. so could you cranes incursion be a way to change the calculus of peace, although seizing russian territory and the curse region is an embarrassment to put and still it's less than 110th of one percent of russia's land mass. whereas russia controls about 20 percent of ukraine's territory, and it's still advancing in the east. in addition to the lab, it's taken, however, ukraine has also captured hundreds of young conscripts soldiers. savanski refers to russian prisoners as you cranes exchange fund. and so lensky spoke specifically of the november p summit and ukraine's plans the temple. yeah, that's what it comes. confirmation connected to the 2nd summit. yes. because it was one of the points of the plan, a victory of ukraine. billamore, but a more. oh, great. meanwhile, the kremlin has been playing down the incursion, saying it has failed to stop the rushes drive to break through an eastern ukraine.

you, people, especially in the curse region, are going through difficult times from the main task that the enemies set for themselves to stop are offensive and the don't basketball didn't achieve it, especially with nationalist opening. and then by say, we didn't start yet. therefore, i'm sure that this provocation will fail if i need it. firstly, i think after that there will be a desire really to move to piece talk slower, not in words, but an actions and resolve these issues by peaceful means. it's of a process. you don't need mysterious to me. it's not clear if keeps gamble to take russian territory will pay off in peace talks this fall or provoked putting to take even more severe measures as he tries to win the war. i asked nick connelly and t v . a few claims incursion into russia could lead to peace stokes of the look. i don't think that suddenly of letting me pretend going to wake up and decide that this war is not worth fighting because ukraine is now on russian soil. some people

in ukraine maybe had hope that the shock of seeing you crated in boots on russian territory would change people's perceptions in russia. but that hasn't happened, but this is certainly about building up kind of trump calls having things to exchange when and if things come to be stokes. right. so this is about saying, we have this amount of russian character to be controlled, that we haven't an x that we don't want to keep, but we can trade for bits of russian occupied ukraine. it's also about taking prisoners. we heard that in the report. unlike lots of other parts of front lines you've had, lots of russian conscripts fighting incurs people who have $181920.00, who aren't being paid big salaries to be well, who are promised that they wouldn't be an active funding. so ukraine is already swapping these people for the credit, instead of being in russian captivity in some cases for up to 2 years. and so, so about embarrassing fighting recruiting domestically and hoping that you know, like if we can seize this conflict slightly differently and realize it might be pressure from russian society to get out of this war. and i think the,

the big thing about, well this is that so far the ukraine and so i just convinced that this is quite a kind of low investment move, right. they have, according to this was at least not lost that much in way of technology in what in terms of lives lost. so they've achieved, they think think quite a lot at a low price. and now the seems like something with doing that is going to bring a kind of a boat, the boon down down the line. but nick, back in ukraine, reports are coming in of russian troops, making significant gains in the dumbass region. why is ukraine's ami not focusing his efforts at because the situation in damascus. aloha day, you have very well established russian positions. you have basically the kind of main focus versus f. it's then most trained and experienced troops so frankly, with the same results that you can achieve a lot more and coast region 10 in the don't best that is in the kind of calculation

from the ukranian side up. but certainly it is something that is being discussed in ukraine right now. there's been a lot of worry that the city of across which is one of the main logistical hubs in ukraine control, don't pass it that could be under threat from russian troops. in the next couple weeks. we've had civilians being evacuated, and there is some tools that ukraine, you know, means now bringing more forces that to try stabilize the situation. and that as soon as the fighting, which is kind of built up areas will play to ukraine, strength is easy to defend. a built up areas, cities than it is to defend positions out in the countryside where you don't have much in the way of cover where russia's advantage is. an app, however you kind of comes into play, but i think the end of the bigger kind of a scene from this you, you create inside is that you're sending more troops into don't pass for now and hoping that that would have a different impact. you're just not something that they think is gonna work. so they are gonna comb with cost and hope that you know, eventually the russians are forced to move troops out on the very latest day from the w's. nick connelly, thank you. hi,

francis has begun his to or the asia pacific in indonesia where he's holding in to face meetings to promote harmony between catholics and most of the 87 year old pontiff landed in chicago where he was greeted by children and church members. catholics make up only 3 percent of the population of innovation. during his visit, the pope will visit a musk and hold of mass as a stadium. he'll make a visit of what you've given a team old list and single dw correspondent gale mattresses in chicago. i asked him why the pope was standing is asia trip in one of the largest muslim nations in the world or in the face. hominy is really the key word for this visit of the pope, the sod visits of a pope. historically, a to indonesia and indonesia, as a good pick for that's topic. not only because you have the largest or one of the largest muslim population, see a reason to be overtaken by pakistan, but also into a religious dialogue in this country that has so many religions. represented is

very important to have the biggest, most of south east asia, the east to go lots that the popo visits on thursday here in chicago. right. opposite is a catholic cathedral and they are connected quite symbolically a by a tunnel. it is there whether pope with a hold of inter religious dialogue as all quite an important topic. and then of course you have to fact that 10 percent of indonesia as population is christian, 3 percent. if it's catholic and if you look at a population of 270000000 people, that is a substantial number. and it is interesting. we compare to europe's numbers that are going down. it is a number that is still growing in terms of believers. mm hm. and why is the pipe know during the day for religious dialogue, but also issues like climate change? absolutely, i think climate change will be another really key issue here, particularly tomorrow when he reads presidential colby was already said that they will talk about this topic a by the way the pope arrived here in

a pretty standard hybrid car, open window waving at people and so a very low key, if you one of the approach here to indonesia, a capital that is threatened by climate change. so it will be of important topic. but as you have pointed out, this is only the beginning of a 12 day trip. it will be followed now by pop when you do need and then to the predominantly christian, the island vision of a team or less the and finally a to the training top office, singapore dw, corresponding gail methods. as in india, emergency services say at least 25 people were killed out. the heavy seasonal rains cause floods in the southeast since june, india has experienced 7 percent more rain than normal. it comes off the funds in western pods. the killed dozens of people last week. one of the biggest cities and the problems of andro pradesh was inundated constant rain full heavy of the late summer. as usual monsoon down paused, swamped roads,

homes and businesses in future while to the residents who could waited 3 waist high will to, to reach safety. but some areas will complete because all my parents of stranded they've been stuck at home because of the floods for the last 2 days. there's no food or war. so the rescue teams and the police come reach them and nobody can help them. rescue was from india national disaster response fund ferried people from flooded neighborhoods to dry land but many residents are disappointed with the response. i already have the food i the guys flooded and everybody's cut off. i mean, there is no electricity, no drinking water, mid quarter, under basic groceries available. there is no one to help us and the people that are stuck with very few boats to rescue them. what come up with

a breakdown of water and power supplies? india's air force flu mold, and so 2 tons of emergency aid into under per dash. and the neighboring states of telling gonna west flood waters forced almost full 1000 people to shelter and emergency camps. some of the world news now, floods and land slides triggered by a tropical storm. yankee has killed more than a dozen people in the philippines. as a precaution, schools and government offices were closed in the capital vanilla as they by regions more heavy rains of full cost. the philippines gets an average of 20 tropical storms and typhoons annually from a fox flag and both martin ventercore and as arrived in quote, in the german city of pound slide to face a criminal trial. 9 years after the diesel gate emission scandal is accused of perjury, market manipulation and commercial fraud. in 2015 volkswagen admitted to installing software and it's diesels to cheat emissions test. so i presume the and supreme

court panel has unanimously upheld the decision by one of it's just this is to block social media platform x nationwide. it was suspended in brazil. last week, i'm thrown at, you know, mosque refuse to block accounts allegedly spreading. this information mosque has denounced the ruling as censorship. venezuelan authorities of issued an arrest warrant for opposition, presidential candidates and would know gonzales. he's accused of various crimes for questioning the outcome of july's presidential election. the elect a little slower, he declared nicholas my daughter. all the went up by date has refused to publish a detailed breakdown of the results. the opposition says, tally sheets from election voting machines. so gonzalez won by a wide margin, several latin american countries, along with the european union and united states have rejected but to us claims of victory. and now your ways of tardies have seized the airplane belonging to madura

. joining us to welcome you this pro once use for the state visits of men, isabel, and president nicholas my doodle leaders. now it's in the custody of the united states. what part of the deed, see the confiscated the legs, the jet or violations of us sanctions? so today's success is just another example of how we continue to look at the corrupt practices of the major overseeing event, as well as government has condemned washington's move. calling it by to see you as a talk. these claim the does all the $900.00 x was bought illegally for $13000000.00 us dollars and this month and also the country. according to the us justice department, the plane was seized in the dominican republic that it was taught to be undergoing maintenance. she to the top dominican diploma, insisted that his country's at parties did only what gods ordered them to do with

them. well now i don't have a man. neither the dominican government nor the public prosecutor's office participated in the us investigation process. in july, my doodle claim to victory in venezuela disputed presidential election. but the us accuses him often putting that those hours and recognizes his opening at window gonzalez as the vin of the seizure of my duty was plain, is just the latest evidence in the relationship between venezuela left us government and the united states. germany's main stream political leaders are considering their options off to the far right. alternative for germany took 1st place in a state election on sunday. if the one the vote in the eastern states of 30 g a despite being classified there is extremist by german 4 days the body one will most of the votes in the state and came a close 2nd to neighboring sacks

a day. but its chances of governing a peace slim as all the bodies of refuse to work in coalition with it. right. if the may have emerged as the biggest when a into region of electrons but will likely end up in opposition. all main screen policies have pledge to uphold a firewall against entering a coalition with the n d migration potty and both the range here and sex any. but although it's the majority didn't cost a boat for the a if the and don't want to see it's kevin some state, it has a mandate to form a coalition for whiskey and certain methods. you just have to come together in the interest of democracy now. yeah, they will, karate no later, and tired of villa into cheryl's thoughts is simply to be a model of the feel sold in the at some point. do you have to ensure that people see the choices you're being reflected while in for bill clifton? think up on saturday, i think they should be given

a chance to work together with everyone. when only then can you say whether they're up to it or not, by denying them that chance by claiming to be too good. you actually end up elevating them and you shouldn't do that too much. but there is concern about the rise of the file, right? why does t as the fact that the f d has done so well, especially in rural areas, is concerning focus that agent has on this. i think it's basically right not to work with them, but it's hard to see a government being formed at all. then you can come to us, it's like, it's terrible, absolutely terrible message but so i don't know what will become of germany. and while the a, if the say they have the right to govern in state level coalitions, the parties running the national government on the pressure, they badly manage to scrape 10 percent of the vote combined with just to you to go before federal elections. these results are likely to increase the tensions filled
