antonie alice services be our guest at frankfurt. airport city, managed by front bought the this is the, the news live from bell, and germany responds to the iranian execution of a duel, uranian german instead of berlin says it is closing 3 uranium concerts in germany. as a consequence of the man's execution 3 days ago into wrong also coming off this toll from flash flooding in spain, drums to at least a 140 people. the country is observing 3 days of morning for the dead. as the clean up. the good news, the thought of being forced to abandon our homeless and the belongings is deeply painful. unfortunately,

no one seems to here are suffering to exist as tell dw, about the daily life on the siege and northern gods. process us, vice president, cala harris and republican candidate donald trump, make the final touches to vote. as we look at the role for and this information to play in the presidential election. the guy that is welcome to the program. germany has announced a full of clothes, all 3 general consulates that iran operates in the country and call on the you to expand sections against the wrong. for a minister in a bad bulk said these measures were in response to the execution of german rainy and national jump sheets, shop, mot,

germany as well in full months of severe consequences for his death. germany's and basset to iran left stay around yesterday as diplomatic. tensions between the 2 countries continue to rise. that spring. indeed, obvious chief political correspondent dina has it's. she's following this story for us. now. what will can you tell us? well, the foreign office calls that's a very drastic measure, this measure that is a response to the execution of jumps utah mont. and it will affect some sadie to a rainy and come to us off here in the cities of front for the hamburger munich. they will no longer be authorized to exercise conseula functions, and this means that they will also probably lose the residents permits in germany. but the embassy here in belin will not be closed and germany will also reach out to you partners and push for further use sanctions against iran. that would go against everyone involved in the arresting, imprisoning execution of time to time out as well as everyone involved. and which

em nichols the show trial against him. and these measures don't come as a surprise the german government had worn for a long time. it would have severe consequences if iran was to execute them should come up. and they summoned the associate a fat here in belin on tuesday when they 1st heard about the execution. the german ambassador has left her on for consultations with babel carrying violin. we don't know when he's going to be back or if he's going to be back in iran at some point. but it was expected that most depths would follow. and this case really has brought jem and rang and relations to the lowest point. they have been in a long time and they had already been reduced to a minimum. now what does that mean for the german, they range in community, both in iran and over here as well. this case has been monitored extremely closely, of course by the gym and it rang in community and it is quite a big one and an active one here in this country with some 300000 people. and many

of them face critics of similar resume into ron. and when use of some of the stuff broke, that was outrage that were protests outside the embassy here in berlin, where people said they wanted to express the sadness, anger, but also the helplessness of many accuse the german government of not having done enough to prevent his death and the foreign minister on a babel did touch on that in their own statements. he wanted to refute those claims said that if it's had been in 10 street made it a top priority himself, but a team also said they've been trying relentlessly, but the wrong denied them access to somebody. go to the trial and said that they didn't treat them as a german national. they unique and considered his a rainy and citizenship. and now of course, the general government is extremely concerned about the safety of other german nationals in iran's prisons. we don't know the exact numbers, but they're awesome and around the prisons and the most just announcing day can be seen as an attempt to increase pressure and iran to release them. and that is

something what any government of course has to weigh the pros and cons very casually. you do need to have some channels of communication. also with countries you don't have a good relationship with. but you also have to factor in the possibility of a wrong retaliate thing, which is why i think the embassy in berlin is being kept open. sorry, wrong can interpret these noses as a warning sign, but a tunnel is uh, somewhat being kept open still so that consequences for reading is living here. a kept us a minimum to demonstrate political correspondent, you know, how's of that? thank you nina. on the desk told from flash flooding in spain is jumped to at least 140 people. this is the country begins 3 days of morning for the dates, but the countries came philip as won't that the emergency is not yet over the eastern regions of murphy on valencia. where hit the hottest. the cell was affected to a so called cold drop trigger. these huge storms that's when cold atlantic low pressure

system collides with will. mediterranean add money, turns swept away vehicles and ripped to pod homes. rescue will cause the scouring valencia's flooded landscape and lifting stranded residents to safety. the waves of the area a completely submerged after years west of rain fell in just a few hours marooned vehicles. littering moved to ways and piled up in the streets, showed the strength of what was springs was not true, dissolved in a century efforts to clean up modern debris from the storm underway. residents and questioning why they would not sufficiently wound up the incoming flood tool to i don't know if it's okay. you haven't even i haven't

seen the police know the man nor anyone else. no one has come here to show that face. this is unexpected because the truth be told, this is an unprecedented the robber. they raise the alarm when the water was already here. when they told me the flood was coming, it was already too late. then the stuff they were telling me on the phone is osborne joins me in the studio nowadays. we. we've heard the so called cold drop trigger those storms. that's probably unusual. but how does climate change play into that scenario or? yeah, exactly. i mean, climate change didn't cause the weather in the 1st place, but it made it was scientists are saying that you know, because the region had been so hot over the summer. the mediterranean was particularly holt, and so there was a lot of work. so that was the best pricing from the mediterranean into the atmosphere. the atmosphere is then generally hotter, as well as a result of climate change in able to hold water. so it's room $7.00 to cents for

every degree of global warming. so that means that was a lot more water in the atmosphere anyway, which translates line into a lot more water flowing when there's this kind of event. now, what can communities do to prepare and reduce the impact? i mean, nice think it's clear that all star sees need to reevaluate the kind of infrastructure and planning they have in place for, you know, the level of water that we are seeing. i mean, these ones are not going to happen all the time, but they need to pre prepared for what it does. there's also so called nature based solutions that they can put in place. so this can be something from planting more trees, which are able to observe water, or in some cases like in boston, where the authorities are redoing public parks. so that be they put in kind of meadows, the rebel to observe, bosa and also landscape features that can act as dams. in the case of, you know, sea level rise and things like that. it was,

it has some way to go in case if it goes down like that. exactly. and you know, in this case, one of the major issues was also the early warning systems in place. so there have been suggestions that you know, we should be taking these events as seriously as we would as quick since through nami, as for example, and maybe even having drills to know how to cope or to what actions taken in such a case of spain has the same devastating droughts over the policy, it was there actually in the somebody with 46 degrees was incredibly hot and we liked it to see these extreme weather events getting worse. scientist say yes, and do you know these eventful for feed into each other? i mean, the drives that we've seen makes the hard to for example, which means when there is heavy rain full, then it's more likely to flood the world kind of drain into the ground. is that of just flows of exactly it, cause this kind of ripples of water instead, the world with retribution, which is

a group scientist that analyzes the connection between climate change and weather has said that, you know, the last 10 most at least extreme weather events were influenced by climate change, so we're talking about flooding or heavy rain leading to flooding drones. sheet waves, all of these kinds of things that we are going to see if the temperature continues to rise. that will get worse if we don't stop missing carbon dioxide and preventing the temperature from rising sometimes. and some people say it's too late to do that . it's, well, there's argumentation also within the scientific community about this. you know, there were reports still saying that we could stay under the 1.5 degree temperature limit that was put in place, like governments to try to stay under the, by the, you know, we are getting closer to that. we've already seen years where the average temperature has been 1.5 miles above services, right? yeah, exactly. we're still at a place where, you know,

the average global temperature is ways above 1.5. but if action isn't taken, we could quickly get there and we're getting an impression of what it might look like if we cross that special. thank you very much. there is osborne dw as chief climate report. let's have a look at some more headlines from around the world. the taiwan is being hit by the biggest storm to strike the island to nearly such a years. many people have been injured and the thousands have fed the homes type. phone calling ray is packing wins over 118. columbus brown and georgia officials say a partial recount of last weekends disputed parliamentary elections has confirmed the victory of the ruling. georgian bream policy the recounts of the place at 12 percent of folding stations opposition parties claimed the vote was read by georgia dream. they also alleged russian interference and have refused to recognize the

results. hezbollah has continued firing rockets at israel from lebanon rock and strike in the northern border. tom, a town of matilda killed 5 people, and one seriously injured have been taken to the hospital. is there any media say from workers were killed while working on an auction on one project, so was fired from the nearby lebanese village of key law. one of the victims is a local farmer. and for a foreign workers from thailand for several weeks now, these really military has been conducting and other offensive against homos militants that according to the idea if have regroups in pulse of northern garza, the idea has ordered palestinian civilians living in the area to of actuated for the south, the u. n says maybe half a 1000000 published indians remain in the to northern part of the territory that facing increasing risk of famine. due to 8 shortages to assist us that we home and

fall to in low body filled their own accounts of daily life in gauze and city for the w. waiting for a whole new international charities distribute steep among palestinian families who fled the latest is really offensive impulse northern garza and have taken shelter here in dollars. the city increasing scarcity of food here is deepening the humanitarian crisis. in your mind, the fee is little thing. how to bear with i want to talk about the situation we live in was in that it had been a if it isn't the the war. and simon we faced and are still facing, is a me said, i didn't know. i know, i don't know many, let's see. and how previously we didn't have anything to eat. we were deprived of flour vegetables. fruits mean to me,

almost every thing is i looked at me 8 dot com and time without threat or any of the food is just to stay alive. and i know it will go with the home, but it will be doing a be doing so basically the issue. we started eating bread again when they recently allowed flour. and she said it looking bad the p and but even though we now have bread, the famine process left them as the can move the most of the hum. nobody says that the lack of access to fresh produce is causing health problems. she and her sister fault and the currently staying in the district of shed clause one and the newest of gauze. the city. as they told d. w as in no way and gaza feels safe. you know, the and see the heavy and what is happening now in the north with people being displaced from their homes and they live here to valley and what is happening in

beta noon speaks for itself as an assistant. and where will we go with the sister say they live in constant fear as the is really a tax on cause. the city of the coming in the daily occurrence an apartment building and shakes of the one was flattened by a recent is rainy. miguel strike several residents were killed and injured. according to the palestinian power medic services in garza in connecting the you with the sort of being forced to abandon our homes and the belongings is deeply painful. and unfortunately, no one seems to here are suffering and the suffering continues. that despite the dangers of remaining in garza city,

often in the home. so they will stay put no matter what. with less than a week before the americans had to the pulse to elect a new president, both democrats and republicans campaigns are in damage control mode, racist remarks at this week's trump riley in new york. close to our process, especially as a comedian labeling puerto rico as an island of trash. presidents, jo biden's responding gas calling trump support is garbage cause even more trouble . and that prompted to republican nominate donald trump taken to the campaign trail in wisconsin, and a garbage truck for president has been containing in t swing states. and so how's his democratic arrival, vice president couple of harris. both candidates have accused each other of sewing, di vision, division and one of the most consequential elections. much of the port

a reservation taking place in us politics today really began almost a decade ago. and the 2016 us presidential election, covert russian influence deeply affected. that's election on the mining many voters confidence at their elections was site from 4 and midland v. as in span us as though it is claim they have land lessons and a better equipped to deal with the threats. but they also want that russia has not backed off, and other countries also trying to handle bending us voters to that will. when right wing commentator tim pool announced just over a week ago, 2 as 2000000 followers that he was stepping back from his successful youtube show. he said it was for personal reasons. so with that being said, it's kind of the weirdest way to announce that i'm pursuing, you know, my family life to the best of my abilities. and i would many speculated that the real reason has something to do with the recent department of justice investigation,

claiming that he was being paid by russia to spread pro trump this information. the indictment alleges that russia funneled $10000000.00 to $3.00 political commentators, one of them assumed to be pul, laundered through us base shell company without disclosing to them that the funding was for an authority say it's part of moscow's effort to influence the 2024 election, which they say has become more sophisticated since its 1st major efforts in 2016. although efforts to counter interference have also improved in 2024. in my opinion name, we have a good reason to be a bit more optimistic, so to speak. the 1st has been in, you know, with smaller than in 2016. and the key reason is, is because the, basically you read the performance on the side of american intelligence agencies as well as been responsibility for relevant media, oregon. still it proves to be a game of cat and mouse, while the department of justice managed to shut down the phone, a company funneling moscow's money to $10.00 pool. russia continues to generate

a flood of posts from fake accounts on social media platforms such as x, instagram, and tick tock aimed at us voters watch in the us intelligence community also says to other foreign powers or targeting us is upcoming election. iran and china. iran appears to be focusing its efforts at preventing from, from taking office, targeting particular groups, through fake websites such as efram majority in debt, black voters, and not our wor, aimed at veterans, to china. according to us, intelligence does not appear to have a preference in the presidential election, but is focusing efforts on, on sitting down valid politicians with into china produce some investigators expose the chinese linked online campaign against marsher blackwell. republican congresswoman is aggressive, antique china stands has garnered national attention. we're going to have to break a lot more china save america. the beijing has insisted that it does

not intend to and will not interfere in the us selection. while us national security officials have prepared for the threat of 4 and meddling, they haven't ruled out new methods that may only come to light after the votes are cast. and that layer i spoke to you, i could polanski who is an expert on russian. this information of the european center of excellence for country hybrid sweats, i austin, for threats of russian meddling and the us presidential election is less now compared to the 2016. hi. uh, thanks for having me. this is a difficult question, small and so because as far as i know, we do not have any solid quantitative data. um, even though the new, more aggressive way from russian to information has been going on for more than a decade, we still do not know how many outlets they control, how many messages per day they spread. how many people do, they managed to successfully concerns? we are still not counting it, so it's very difficult to to answer this question. however, if i would try to guess, i would probably say that the threat,

this is bigger simply firstly because it's empty. i've been around for longer. any kind of campaign be to sell it to contain or just information contain gains influence in time. it's the old tomato repeat a lot 100 times that it becomes the truth. so was more repetitions. they simply get more more audience. but also because they are getting more successful in sort of on boarding local actors who will help them spread their, this information for them, which is what you also covered in your pics. now it might be difficult to quanta 5, but one thing is for sure that our access and what direction is russian propaganda trying to sway us voters. and what's the main message a reference being very consistent in supporting donald trump, likely for several different reasons. first, that comes to mind a seems to be a bit more friendly towards protein or towards dictators dictatorships around the world in general. then the democrats and other reason might be that externally,

then other trump presidency would probably further discourage the american image in the world. maybe even the image of democracy in the world, internally for the american audience, the end of the trump presidency would probably increase the polarization of the american, debated once again, deep them the dividing lines, which is precisely what prussia has been trying to do in the united states and in the last 10 years. so sort of strengthening the both extremes and exploring the middle you, if you want us to do that, you destroy the possibility of reaching a consensus. you make the other 3 fight internally, focus on their internal fights, and when they do that, they do not have time to focus on the external. and so, for example, on the russian aggression in ukraine or hybrid operations in georgia. and so if you ask about this specific message, sorry, no, no, no i, i was just trying to bunch in that because the us is also certainly russia of us also sees

a growing threats of china and iran attempting to influence us voters. how big is that for it? i will have to admit that i do not committee consider myself an expert on, on chinese or iranian operations. i know them pretty. on the 2nd hand, from the articles, what i read china still seems to be learning about how to conduct these operations better than they used to conduct them. they used to be very clumsy, but i think they are learning quite quite quickly. and obviously, in the long term, china might be a significantly bigger spread then, then russia simply because they have more, more resources. but, but the advantage that the russians have in the know how, in the fact that they have been conducting information operations and all installed for the last more than 100 years. that is a very, very big advantage. and they know their audience is significantly better with a ron. i have to admit that this is something i do not even read very much about so, so i, uh, i rely on the article. so i read something york times. it looked like they,

they do not really they, they do not see it summarily to, to the russians that they would be some more than come now do you think is yours? as far as the saw up to the challenge of tackling the issue? i have i learned from the past. yes and no. i think i think it is. it is great that we see that some of the big exposures are coming before the elections rather than off to which, which was the case in 2016. in 2016, we saw a lot of the exposures about russian to information based on the after the elections, which is probably too late. what is, what is the worst settlement is that we see the articles that for example, the global engagement center, which is one of the biggest, the american um, to this information initiatives is getting weekend. it is, it is troubling to read articles about this information. researchers being silent by some of the politicians on the hill and, and to the governmental search. he's not doing very much about that. so it

sometimes looks as if the 1st amendment would protect only the russian center proclaiming lawyers, but not those who are actually trying to expose the russian fives. now, very briefly, please. uh oh, this needs to be for us. what role do the tech companies play and policing this information in for an influence? they could be doing so much more in, in preventing the spread of this information. i do not really understand why the policy makers accept the civil excuse that the platforms can not control what is being published there. that's the problem they created. it's a problem to solve. i mean, if, if don't triple a try this line in court, we didn't know that one of our reporters is regularly insight into hatred or violence. if people look ridiculous, i do not understand why we, by this uh, excuse from the, from the platforms. yeah, cool colors. do that. thank you very much for sharing your expertise with us. thanks for the invitation. have

a good afternoon and that's it from me and those things. so dabble, i have an update for you at the top of the us up next comfort zone with tim sebastian don't is that got the office in berlin from in between. thanks for watching the

into the conflicts own with tim sebastian. as the warning ukraine brings ever more death and destruction key european officials fail moscow is now preparing for contact with the west. i guess this week goes along with that view. these tougher roll for the heads of his phone using television service. but he still believes russia can lose conflict. the next on d w, our economy is designed to grove, but our planet is reaching its limits. you get the sense that there is no concept
