the the, this is dw news, live it from berlin, more explosions in 11 know and 14 people are dead and dozens injured in a new series of glass walkie. talkies exploded on wednesday and they route and beyond. 12 people died tuesday with thousands of pagers explode. apparently targeting members of hezbollah also coming up floods in central and eastern europe and leaving a trail of destruction. thousands more. have been it back. you waited as teams of volunteers tried to save their communities from the rising water. and the showdown between the european union and hungary, hungary faces of fine for breaking in new asylum walls. but prime minister victor or bon says he won't pay and that he won't take and assign them. see

the library golf is good to have you. with this, we begin with more explosions in 11 on lebanese officials say at least 14 people have been killed and more than 400 injured in what appears to have been a 2nd round of explosions of communications devices of this cons just a day after, at least 12 people were killed when pager is used by hezbollah members, exploded. has the militants begin using the devices, and the hopes of avoiding is rarely surveillance of their mobile phones. the militant group blames israel for the explosions and says the attacks will not go unpunished. on a fresh wave of explosions across 11 on some of them at the funeral of 3 has been members and a child killed by exploding pagers the day before

a source close to has belie and rescuer said walkie talkies used by the group exploded as part of last heard into a route and in the southern city of siding, a cell phone shop caught fire after an explosion. there. the new blasts come as lebanon is still in shock the day after what's been described as an unprecedented attack. hundreds of pagers used by the militia group has been blew up over about an hour, killing at least a dozen people and injuring thousands. in the aftermath, many schools and shops are closed and residents are still reeling. automatic, what happened yesterday shocked us of them. it was unimaginable. no one could have thought that pages could explode like that. page of the vehicle. the scene was shocking. how people would toner pause right in front of you though exploding right in front of you at the minute. one blast was caught on camera,

the kind of in a statement read on lebanese television, hezbollah, which is considered a terrorist group by the you and others, place the blame squarely on israel, and bout, to punish the perpetrators of the attack. lebanese agreed with their message. but now we will retaliate, we have to teach them a less than they con, forget. because those people, if they are not home, they will not be deterred. many has been that members were using the pagers because the group leadership had thought the older technology could have a tracking bias. real security experts believe is real. spike agency massage was able to insert a small amount of explosives into devices somewhere along the supply chain before they reached has block. hospitals in bay roads have been overwhelmed with the sudden rush of patients, staff say they treated grisly wounds and the emergency doctor last night at the

hotel the hospital. unfortunately, as everyone knows, we received injuries due to devices exploding and people's hands. so the injuries were mainly to the eyes and hands which cost finger amputations trapped on the eyes . some people lost their site. so i don't know if the tensions are running high in lebanon has, but i has already fired some 20 rockets into israel on wednesday in apparent retaliation for the attack. read the use bure, they route bureau chief mohammed destroys that has more now on this new wave of explosions and living on a fresh wave off explosions. hit levin on a while ago when a number of handheld radio was that used by his beloved militants dates an agent, at least one of the bloss to place near a funeral, organized by the group. for those killed in the previous day. explosions,

more explosions have been reported in different locations across the country. that preliminary information suggest that walkie talkies, a 10 okie dokie devices that are different from yesterday's pages. donated in houses offices and cause across the country, causing a number of casualties which we haven't been able to identify and verify yet this has been described as a she ameliorating moment for hezbollah. talked to me about how it's impacting, as well as a billy ability to offer rate as well. there's no doubt that it is this. it has massively disrupt that has been less operations and committed and control system. it is believed that hundreds, if not thousands of as well as militants, we'd be out of service at least for some time, due to the injuries this operation at today. and yesterday, obviously at aim to cut the means of communication between hospitalized poll

characters and the 2 boys died of harm to the group personnel, but also to cause more damage to the party members and supporters to break the trust that the militant group is capable of fighting and, and then, and the keeping up against is right. i think that has the law would need some time to digest this at these events and find them turn that as to the store. it's communication and it's a command and control system but also to the store motors off it's scope or to then supporters that are completely shocked by the scale of these attacks. despite the shock we are hearing that hezbollah is blaming israel for the attacks and they've already carried out in the 1st cross border attack. so what do we know about this apparent retaliation? as well as the law so far claimed the 3 attacks, at least on the as well this afternoon. in a brief statement this morning, the militant group filed at to continue with the

a daily operation that they need. routine cross dukes cross border showing with as well as part of what the, the party calls a supporting from for a cause. i own a separate note. the parties out to retaliate to yesterdays massive security breach and a tax, but did not provide details about the nature of the retaliation. you know, the confrontation between the 2 rivals is based on a deterrence a question. and after these attacks, there's a general feeling that there's some sort of in balance in this and, and as well as perceiving this as an attempt to break this question. so we're just anticipating how the militant group would respond. our bureau chief mohammed tray to with the latest from the root moment. thank you. so how many of these explosions happen now? it's believed that is result most likely infiltrating the supply chain or the

distribution network of the pagers that exploded on tuesday. we have more now on the pagers and what experts say had to be inside in order for the devices to designate this is an a paulo pager. the model that exploded simultaneously across lebanon has the law started using the devices extensively last year for security reasons. unlike mobile phones, they can be traced experts a most likely the pages contained explosives, possibly just 2 or 3 grams that were inserted at some point between manufacturer and delivery. but the supply and delivery chain are murky. the pages were marked with the logo of the gold apollo company in taiwan. but the company's chairman says his firm didn't actually make them says this company, the ac has cooperated with us and has represented many about $4.00 for about

3 years. we have to they also wanted to make pages and asked me if they could use our companies brand, name me in the pay is of they paid is the brand name fee and they designed it themselves. and he said he not, would you mind that takes us to hungary were b, a c, consulting is located in the capital booted past the address listed for b. a. c is a simple building that appears to be the legal headquarters for multiple firms. at this point the picture grows even merc here, it's not clear yet if the a see actually made the devices, nor is it clear when hezbollah order them or when they arrived. it appears that at some point between order and delivery is real and intelligent service was able to get hold of the pagers and insert explosives and a detonator before delivery to hezbollah. the page was apparently ran for months

before exploding signs of a sophisticated operation that must have been planned long before. there's a lot to unpack here and to help us do that. i'm joined now by just in campo caesar, professor, the computer science and engineering department in new york university professor is going to help you with this. so yesterday was pagers. today we're talking about walkie talkies. how would an attack such as this, how would it be executed? technically to so what happens is these devices are such that you communicate over wireless networks, much like your cell phone or other things receive wireless signals. these can you signals in those bands and they can also use signals and other bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. and so what happens is that if you put a little bit of electronics inside of the device, like a page or a walkie talkie, and when it receives a signal, it can be, you know, a specific signal. it can then trigger something like an explosion. so then if it

has below it is be reported, it has below is using pagers to avoid surveillance, to protect itself, basically as opposed to using smartphones which can be traced as a. but what you're saying is that these features, these devices actually provide a no protection. well, what has will it did actually was a smart to try to protect against tracing because of things like a cell phone always have a, like a 2 way communication. it's your phone is going, communicating with the cell tower, you're making calls, you're sending data back and forth. whereas some devices, like a certain models or pagers only receive information and they don't actually send any information back that does stop them from being traced. and so how well actually did a good thing from a security standpoint of making there be less information about where their specific members were by not having

a bi directional communication through something like their pagers. so how sophisticated then would this kind of operation be to execute having all of these devices exploded at the same time? and is this the type of operation that you would expect a state to execute? or could you see non state actors being behind as well? really the one of the most difficult parts was tampering with all of these devices before they got in the hands of hezbollah. and that is the type of thing that you basically need a state actor or something like that to go in and do. and then once you get to the point where you have all these devices that you want to tamper with it or in place, it is also something that's easier for someone like a state act or nation state to be able to do very you know, extensive resources are needed for a lot of this, but you can also see for certain weaker devices. you can imagine situations where other types of hacker groups or things could go and, you know,

take control of and cause damage to devices. um, we seen a lot of that, not necessarily in a wireless sense, but we've seen a lot of that before where there have been lots of, for instance, internet connected cameras and other internet connected devices that have been turned into parts of bought nets and used to launch the attacks on major tech sites and so on. i mean, you know, i, i get the impression that we're dealing with a completely new frontier of more fear here. and we're just beginning to to, you know, understand the dimensions of other devices that could possibly be tampered with and used as weapons could medical devices, pacemakers, for example. they're usually connected to a network. could they be targeted? absolutely. in fact, the vice president, a former vice president dick cheney, his pacemaker,

was not network connected and needed special equipment for people to be able to interact with it exactly to protect against this type of threat. and i think that this threat, you know, it's very common to think of things like medical devices and this is a very serious, very real threat. but there are other aspects out there that are also very, very serious threats. automobiles, for instance, the automotive industry has done a tremendous job of improving their security. but they're still is quite a long ways to go. and you can imagine what would happen if an organization is able to get in and disable the brakes. or, you know, force acceleration of a large number of cars in a major metropolitan area. it would be pandemonium. and that doesn't require any of the types of supply chain attacks that you saw here, which to me is really the newest thing about this type of attack. that is, you know, allegedly israel was able to go and interfere input explosive inside of a lot of these devices. you know, for the past 1015 years we've heard

a lot of appraise for the internet of things um a future where everything and everyone will be interconnected of what we've seen and living on in the past few days. should we see that as a, maybe a wake up call to the threats that we put ourselves into the dangers we put ourselves into by being connect? absolutely. um, in fact uh, one of the things that my wife and i agreed on was uh no internet connected devices in our household without me having a good look at them. and we have very little in there. i think a lot of security experts view them as risk, and yes, it's kind of cool that you can tap a button on your smartphone and maybe make a cup of coffee while you're still in bed. that might be a neat thing to do, but what that really means is that someone else across the internet can do things

like cause or coffee maker to go on. and possibly, if they know what they're doing and the coffee maker is not very well designed, maybe even do things like start a fire in your home, or at a minimum know that your home? no, when you're, you're out on vacation so that people can rob you. and so really the internet of things have a massive risk surface. i think consumers don't really understand that. but, you know, talk to somebody who's a security expert and they will most likely not have a lot of those devices in their houses. so i assume you don't have a smart refrigerator in your home, for example. but you do have was smart refrigerator, no smart oven, no smart, anything. but you do have wifi, i in your house. i assume you have a smart tv. is there any danger that a, a smart tv could that be a point of entry into a person's home that we haven't thought of that, that could, you know, be a danger to i don't have a smart tv, but they are absolutely

a point of feature in fact, a lot of them, uh that there was a scandal a while ago where there's a manufacturer that effectively was streaming audio from consumers homes to a 3rd party that was supposed to do a recognition so that you do something like use a i commands to turn on your television or do other stuff like that? mm hm. and it's, it's things like television, smart tvs and stuff like this are just great for surveillance. if, if you were so inclined to do so, so you really should think about the risks. think about anything that your device can do. imagine that someone else can make your device, do that. if it's an internet of things device, and in fact they can often do much more than you can do with it. so that should be something that should worry consumers. well, this is definitely been a, a um, maybe an overdue reality check for a lot of people. professor justin campus with computer science and engineering at

new york university professor. we appreciate your time and your valuable insights tonight. thank you. thank you. are. all right, here's a quick look now and some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. america's top diplomat, anthony, blinking, has denied any us knowledge or involvement in the deadly page or explosions in loving non today speaking in cairo, the secretary of state urge all parties to avoid escalating the regional conflict. she's been meeting with egypt president in an effort to revive stalled efforts to secure a ceasefire in gauze. the you in general assembly of strongly back the non binding resolution demanding it in to israel's occupation of the palestinian territories. within 12 months. it was ported by a 124 of a 193 members. the text is based on an advisory opinion from the international court of justice. that calls is real host and 1967 occupation unlawful. israel

has rejected the resolution. ukrainian drones have struck a military depot in rushes to their region, just 400 kilometers north west of moscow officials and keep claimed responsibility for the attack. seeing that it hit a warehouse containing missiles, sparking a huge plate attacks deep inside russia had stepped up as you create continues to develop its role. tech knowledge believes 23 people have died across central and eastern europe. it has the region experiences its biggest floods in decades. a powerful storm moved across the region, causing rivers and downs to overflow. rescue efforts are ongoing, but more bad weather is expected in the coming days. bullen is experiencing severe flooding. part of a larger crisis affecting much of central europe, a part of these expect water levels to be above the alarm specials. these

volunteers are helping secure the river banks and fears they could collapse this as most people to but we don't like to secure who river banks that we want them to prevent. the flooding problem sets before them is that i am not far away. in slovakia the dental river has overflowed the dilute just forcing people to move to higher ground in the czech republic, some residents are evacuating as a precaution, following official orders. we have relatives here, but we didn't know it would be so big change the color. it brought us by surprise to outsource. so we had no time to arrange anything. also let me know if these are too many were left to rely on rescue teams for help with some being evacuated and rubber boats. some areas are starting to clean up,

but others are facing more severe of other hungry is preparing for significant flooding, especially in budapest, where water levels are expected to beat this week. efforts are focused on keeping the river and its dubuque freeze, and check with $12000.00 soldiers on stand by the european union, once hungary, to pay up hungry, missed a deadline to pay a huge bind for breaking the european union's asylum root. so now the plans to deduct the find from the funds earmarked for hungary in the use budget, the initial find of 200000000 euros. that following is growing by 1000000 euros every day that hungary does not pay. but secondary in 5 minutes to victoria bomb, he insist that he will not back down from his position or refusing to accept asylum seekers that he's been prime minister of hungry since 2010. and progressively,

victor opens position on migration has only holidays to the point where he uses extreme language divide. you policies designed to share the burden of migration amongst european nations. there is no any chance to have any kind of compromise and agreement on the migration. politically, it's impossible, but generally speaking, for the next years, you know, because because legally b r a, how to say to be. so if you are a legally forced to accept something, what you don't like, how would you like to have a compromise that isn't possible when large numbers of refugees started arriving into the you in 2015 old on built a board defense to keep the might. and when germany recently decided to reimpose board a checks the welcome to german thompson, the life shows to his anti immigration club. he's long being the throne in the side of the low making the turing numerous proposals on

a raft of issues like preventing you money from reaching ukraine and opposing the countries process for joining the you. hungry has been boy, you cottage by many you leaders and ministers, while recently taking over the 6 months championship of you me to hold on use the role to launch a campaign which he called make your a great again a rip off of crumbs. make america great. again slogan they've had to form a president even praised or band during the recent campaign debate support. let me just say about where are leaders, victor or ben? what are the most respected man? if they call, i'm a strong man, he's just, he's a tough person. smart prime minister of hungry for eroding the independence of the judiciary and restricting media and, and jerry's from operating and hungry. who binds government has faced a number of legal cases from the you fighting press. it was has long been part of how did the hon gary and prime minister operates. so do you use jack parents,

he told us more about how hunger res showdown with the you. how that show down could possibly play out there will that know to expect to pay the fine to be, to be on this. that's not what we're expecting to happen. this 200000000. your i find that was imposed by the european court of justice. it doesn't look like it's going to be paid. we haven't heard anything specifically about it yet. but what we do know is that the european commission plans to take money from the money that is sent to hungry to the hon, gary and government. i was of the use coffers and nights of the use budget and then they'll prevent some of that money from going that that's what we've heard. and who you spoke to us and say, here in brussels today, we don't know exactly how does that mean what, which of the money it will come. i've told it could potentially come i to of what's known as the resilience and recovery fund. this was money that was a markets and put together from the european union to get out of the cobit 9 team

funds that make or it could go from some of the other funds that hungry enjoy. he's hungry, he's one of the net recipients of money. i would say the, you budget over 4000000000 your raise, it gets out of the countries put more more money into the you budget and don't take as much money i just hungry does. as you said in your report, this is not the 1st time that the hon, gary and prime minister has been at odds with brussels with the you. what is different this time? or specifically, the court ruling. there is a judgement against hungry that a breached you. rule some of the other cases, the hungry faces, for instance, issues regarding rule of rule, whether it's whether you are paying commission believes it's breached it's, it's, it's a fundamental values regarding how it operates. the budget history is cracked. dialing on media and engineers. these are decisions that have been made by the commission, but in this instance, there is a court decision by the european court of justice. not only same the hungry didn't

abide by the you asylum rules that have to do more to support international law or to uphold the individual rights of asylum seekers. back in 201-540-0000 of them all passed through hon. gary and soil into the rest of the european union. and the c j says it didn't do that. and it's not only saying that it didn't do it, but there's also a specific number, an order of money this $200000000.00 your is that a court document says hungry must pay that was dw deck there and they are reporting from brussels. here's a reminder now the top stores were following this, our lebanese officials say at least 40 people have been killed in more than 400 injured what appears to be of 2nd round of explosions of communication device is used by hezbollah. this time walkie talkies were designated to comes a day after thousands of pagers used by has full exploded killing 12 people. the militant group is blaming israel. it says that they will not go unpunished. you

watch the w news, i'll be back in 90 minutes with with more world news followed by the day i hope to see you then the
