where israel says its forces have killed around 250 has bullfighters since its troops entered the country. earlier this week, the militant group has not confirmed that number is real, says that 8 of its soldiers have been killed. the foreign minister of iran has well as banker is in the lebanese capital bay rouge as is really air strikes. target has the leaders, the talks with lebanon's prime minister following his really attack on the building where it's thought that hezbollah officials were meeting media report to say the strike was an attempt to kill a possible successor to the former leader assigned us rolla. as rolla you may remember was killed last week. it's all right. i want to go now to journalists, ruth michaels, and she is in very rude. ruth, the iranian foreign minister has arrived in a root and we're wondering who does he meet with in 11 non? is it his lebanese counterpart or a member of hezbollah,

or are the 2 basically one of the st? well, i've been a bus actually arrives today. he met actually met the cad, take a prime minister, and that's even a county. i'm using it with the speakers, the parliament. that'd be very easy for me among movement, which is a separate shared policy he has seen now increasing the with what's been happening is and increasingly powerful and important cigarette intensive, potentially securing a ceasefire and moving forward. and that's certainly the kind of statements that we saw coming out of both of those meetings. the rain in for administer. it said, according to the national needs agency of to the meeting during the meeting with the jeep account team, the cad take her prime minister. he said that he, his focus was on supporting lebanon against his radio, aggression in his was. and then also was talking about, you know, the assets to back a ceasefire, though in his words,

he said that they would only support to cease fire if it was backed by his bullet. and also i was bored into for single tennessee with the ceasefire. regarding garza, i want to get your assessment of do the tax by israel and the killing of has bullet fighters. do they really have the potential to weaken the terrorist organization in the long run? i mean we've, we've posted the same questions time and time again concerning a moss, a well, i mean, date certainly we can testable as need to ship structure. we seen the is really strikes has taken out much, many of the prominent members of has because the destruction, particularly of course, the long time lead to how something us roller and who was killed inside the house and strides, and the southern setups as they read last week and this has been a series of talking to disaster nations. all leading has full of figures by is

around and as he mentioned at the top, there been efforts to strike the same part of the southern bay route to assassinate has bullet number 2 might potentially or excuse me, the potential 2nd in come around to house and us rela, or someone that could succeed him. um, but at the same time, in terms of what this is doing, in terms of how ordinary people from those same parts of a route and how they feel about his bullet as a group. there are people that i spoken to here who say that these attacks and the fight with israel and making the more supportive of hezbollah as seen as a protecting them from is really attacked. so in a sense, yes, so these attacks are taking up large numbers of the leadership structure, but in terms of what they're doing, wines of support of the group that is a lot more confusing is real,

says that it hit more than 2000 sites during an operation in southern lebanon on israel also says that about $250.00 hezbollah fighters were killed in combat with the jewish new year holiday. with that ending is the expectation in the route that the attacks from israel are about to intensify even further. i mean, i think it's quite difficult to anticipate what could happen. there's certainly a sense that this has been an escalation in the past week. i mean, things have happened here. things have changed very, very quickly. and people, when i speak to them on the ground, the feeling that very intensely that has been this huge escalation in a text. we saw last night that according to uh, his book of talking to the piece agency, they said that they counted 11 consecutive strikes on the southern southern since they were that last night was considered to be quite an intense series of aspects

supposed to be made. even the most intense series of s writes on the southern bay route, at least that we have seen so far. and so i think people, uh, hoping that uh, that these things will, will end as soon as possible when you speak to people that are displaced as over a 1000000 people displaced in lebanon, they desperately want this to end as soon as possible. and so i think that trying, hoping that that will be the case during this ruth michael soon with the latest from the route tonight. ruth, we appreciate your reporting. thank you. and is really ears drank is cut off the main border crossing between lebanon and syria. tens of thousands of use the route to escape is really bombing lebanese officials say more than a 1000000 people have been displaced and all that includes thousands of foreign workers use. bailey bureau chief mohammed tray to reports.

this mixture of soup kitchen serving food, 200 rubles migrant workers in war toned liberal to my right is preparing the next theme just outside her restaurant. dress money. yes. nearby boot. she herself is a migrant worker from the philippines. but she's here as a volunteer to help others in the migrant community governments. schools are offering a shelter for people, but my grants are not allowed. so most often my grants are in just in dispute. if they don't have to end the seats or the country late to accommodate them, so trust somebody else has really try to get them on helping the migrants, whether it's free to be no regardless of nice. oh function of this. we are helping them with the full, with the security unprecedented. 1000000 people are on the move shelters like this one nearby who are struggling to house committees. families,

pleading is what you the s, wrecks it is getting dark here in bales. as you can see behind me, there's a lot of people that would have to spend another nights on the streets. some of them are live and he's who couldn't find who mean any of the over crowded shelters . but most here are foreign workers who just have no place to go. right indicators of the roots downtown. we supported a group of domestic workers from sierra young. most of them flipped south independent and the southern suburbs are field looking for safety and trip any some 80 kilometer is north of fruit, but they were turned away from a school which was serving as a shelter. so the message to send me was the school is not for my address, it's 411 is people as they are not allowing them to stay, most of the women were abandoned by their employers who had fled to safety and left their employees trended in the middle of the conflict, so and then sir,

doesn't want you to just drop you somewhere without your papers and you can't do anything with their passports and legal documents still at the position of their employers. these women can not exit the country left to fend for themselves. the desperately keep looking for shelter as these really minute 3 orders more. if i could ration from pounds and solving the been on the number of refugees is crowing . and the chances of finding even a room for the night would soon become almost impossible. or let's take a look now, some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. it runs a supreme leader. i have told her how many has led friday prayers and t. ron, for the 1st time in years, the hills, this country's reach missile attack on israel's saying, it's a wrong would do it again if necessary. you also have prayed for the late as the leader, assigning us rolla, and defended how mazda is terror attacks against israel. the g 7 group of rich

democracies is to set up specialized police units to investigate the trafficking of migrants. italy's interior minister mateo beyond those, he says the initiative is part of the drive. the tackle in regular migration including shutting down trafficking cartels. the world health organization has given the 1st emergency approval for an em pox test. the test can detect inbox on swabs taken from lesions. most cases in africa every main and diagnose because of limited laboratory access. hundreds of died from a new street of in partners or the or viewed union will impose new terrorists of up to 35 percent on the electric cars coming from china on top of the existing 10 percent duties. and these extra tariffs, they are controversial. germany voted against the seniors. the b gene could retaliate with its own beings now. and he,

you investigation found that china and fairly subsidizes electric vehicle makers. the tariffs can be dropped if there is a negotiated settlement. i want to bring in l d. w as terry shoulds in brussels. she's been following this story for us today. terry industry groups here in germany say that these tariff increases will deepen hostility in the, in use trade relations with china. and we know that's, that's where they stand. what about the european commission? what does it stance? well, brandon european commission is calling this a win this vote today. but in fact, more countries abstained from voting on going ahead with the terrorist and actually voted for them. so you had 12, it's extensions 10 countries voting for them and only 5 led by germany voting against them. germany only had a handful of small states, hungary, malta, slovenia, and slovakia that joined it in opposition to these measures. but the commission

says, you know, this investigation which you mention has shown us that there is not a level playing field as they feel that they have no choice. they say that this is protecting automakers, protecting european consumers to charge potentially up to 45 percent terrace. on in ports of chinese electric vehicles, they say that they'll continue negotiating with china, but they believe that this is the best way to, to help protect industry and consumers. some european observers via that this could re ignite the trade war with china that we saw under former us president donald trump for trade. were that hampered global economic growth? i mean, are the or e u member states, are they worried about that happen? well, some of them are worried and that's why we saw such an indecisive vote today. that's why you didn't see more countries coming out in favor of this. but i mean, the, the big ones did vote for it. france, italy, poland, and, and greece. so you had enough of a way of

a weight behind the boat to approve it. at the same time, i think that as you mentioned, donald trump, this is one of the concerns that is leading countries to, to, to be worried about this. donald trump believes that the terrorists are good for consumers, and he has been in trumpeting that on the campaign trail. so i think that there is a lot of uncertainty ahead of us selections about what kind of trade environment would be created. should donald trump be re elected at the same time, the european commission? uh, you know, wanting to take a strong stance right now at the beginning of versa. live underlines 2nd mandate to say, this is where we stand with china. yeah, i mean this could become a major issue in the german election, which is just a year away. i mean, what, what happens next with e cars from china and these tears? so what was set in motion today is that the european commission will go ahead by the end of this month at the latest to publish this decision in the formal

register and then they will go into effect. so. so next month, at the same time, the commission emphasize today that it will continue negotiating with china. some of those rates could be lower depending on how these talks go. at the same time nobody expects any, any, you know, a complete compromise coming from badging instead. what most people expect is retaliatory terrace. that's what the german auto industry is worried about is germany sells up to a 3rd of its cars in china. so it's expecting that china will respond with, with measures in kind. but as we say, the commission wanted to make sure everybody understood that negotiations continue . and they said this was not their 1st choice. they think of this as a last resort and it just didn't go out on the street and see how many electric vehicles you can find. not many used, terry show. it's important for us from brussel. scary. thank you. you're watching dw, do something next. they dw documentary examines the importance of the, tell bob 3 and the tropical force of man,

a gas car will be back at the top of the hour with more of old news, i hope to see you that the innovation green, the green revolution global. so listen, the whole lot of crime is probably up to speed if the carrier is subscribe to the subscribe to plan. it's a.
