old, we can be the generation, the ends at so good. malaria must not so millions can live the hello and welcome to data video news. your top story is coming to live from berlin, early elections i had in germany, and we now have a dates after the collapse of his governing coalition last week. german chancellor, all off false agrees to early election in february. also ahead on our program. us a deadline to allow more aid into gaza expires. the u. s. it says israel has met its demands, but 8 agencies strongly disagree and a major legal victory for the oil dry and show a dodge court over turns a landmark ruling. but order of the company to cut it's carbon emissions. the

richardson welcome german chancellor. all off schultz and the main opposition conservatives have agreed on a date for early elections. february 23rd. the snap election was prompted by the collapse of the coalition government last week when schultz fired his finance minister controls as bound to political pressure and agreed to hold the election a month earlier than he had originally suggested. it will be a rare winter election in germany instead of the usual september pro life sheltered social democrats and the opposition. c. d u. c. s. you have both accepted an early date somewhere between what the 2 sides were hoping for to happen once we have agreed to propose to the gym and president arden that the election of the 21st

german bonus tag should take place on the 23rd of february 2025. 50 von. so i know 20 some dodge and when the stock chancellor shelves announced last week, he would call a confidence vote and take us the collections that was up to his government collapsed when he dismissed finance minister, christie, and link the head of the free democrats. one of the 3 parties in his coalition shots hopes to be nominated as his policies candidate for chancellor had returned to lead and the government is still with us. i believe this will help us to finally come to a clear focus, namely who is the better chance left the gym and they hadn't had. you know that i am firmly convinced that show to set up this country well under the most difficult conditions over the last 3 years. but didn't woman these lands good guitar? not a continuation of charlotte says john slo,

looks unlikely that according to the pulse freezers manse could be on his way to the top job. he's sent a right group is set to come out of an election as the largest party, but it would need coalition passes and the makeup of any future government is i'm clear. meanwhile, concerns have been raised. the rushing to the oppose good cause problems for the smooth running of an election. until just a week ago, the parties were still planning for regular elections 10 months from now. now they will have to scramble to pick candidates, and the authorities will have to meet legal deadlines much sooner with work to do over the christmas and new year holiday season. but jim and his chief electoral officer says she thinks february, the 23rd is doable. a confidence voting parliamentary is now expected. on december, the 16th new elections would follow 10 weeks of the event, how long it might been take to form a new government is at the moment. anyone's guess?

let's hear more from the w political correspondent assignment the young in berlin and his of the latest on the story. 5 of the german president has now backed this election timeline. what's the next 3 plus months ahead? looked like for germany. it's excellent. i think they look pretty hectic. festival jobs laugh sholtes. he's going to have to make good on what he's indicated, namely that he'll follow disagreement between the parties. that means that on the 11th of december, he will request a parliamentary, both to have no confidence that vote will be held in the bonus tag on the 16th of december. and if is expected, he loses that both of the confidence because he doesn't have a majority in parliament any more than the way it will be clear for federal president, frank, both of stein maya, to declare new elections on the 23rd of february. and that means that

during the period of christmas and new year, the policies will have to will call and get the candidate list said that there was a campaign. machines will have to far off and the candidates will be going door to door during january and february, which can be pretty chilly months at a henry gemini, of course. and on top of all that the official range arrangements for the selection will have to be put in place with ballot boxes and polling stations and postal votes. and the also difficult work out he's even eligible to vote. so it's a lot to do should be doable. for a country like germany, but within the electorate of more than $60000000.00, you know, it's a challenge for a short window for campaigning, lots to get done and wants to pay attention to. so i mean, what about the fact that donald trump will be taking office in the united states even before germany is able to hold these elections so that put for lynn in a precarious position as yeah,

well it could be 5 long weeks between the presidential in organization in washington and that german election the end of february, particularly if donald trump continues to make this, it would come back to of noises. he's been making a game lately with regard to germany saying german, easy, now launch. they haven't paid the money that they owe, and of course, trump is also threatened to impose trade tariffs on foreign countries. so, you know, it'll be difficult if he's making those been logs who will on so then a lot shots, his hands will be tied during the election campaign. and in any case, of course, germany's economy is filtering. so if it's demands for more money, is that coming from the united states, then you know, that's going to be tough for, for building to on. so, and you know, we're put, put the land and whoever is empowered, frankly, and a new government under a certain amount of pressure as they come. it's a tricky situation ahead indeed. thank you so much for that analysis. that's our

political correspondent, simon young. in berlin, turning now to the united states, it says it will continue to send arms to israel due to what it calls limited improvements in the gaza aids situation. last month, the by that administration had threatened to scale back american military support unless as well increased urgently needed aid for the territory within 30 days. well that deadline has come up today. international aid agencies disagree with us assessment. they say israel has failed to meet us demands to allow more aid to gaza . let's take a look at the last 30 days. displaced honest opinions and central guns or q for a bowl lift lentils seat red hot meal. but in many cases, one have to feed an entire extended family. of the war has destroyed, causes, farming and fishing industries,

leaving the entire population of 2200000 reliance on food aid. the u. n's world food program is the biggest supplier of aid follows by the egyptian red crescent. israel records all of the aid, it allows him to gaza. he around israel's monthly so to sticks for 2024. they showed deliveries dropped in october to the lowest level since the start of the war, november solar and improvement, but still way below what the u. s. has cooled full washington once age for gaza to rise to 350 trucks a day that 80 average for october was just 57 trucks. excluding fuels, deliveries, un agencies say even less actually gets distributed due to his rating restrictions ongoing. fighting on the general chaos, aid entering garza currently passes through the carriage along crossing in the south and air is in the news. on tuesday is roadside to open the case to sim,

costing to a day before the us deadline to increase a deliveries. things are especially bad in the news residents in the towns of giovanni at the law here in bates noon, said they've received no a tool since israel. they've got a new offensive. they're on october 5th. these really all me says it was forced to move into the tones to take on her mass militants, who it says of re grouped that one mind in jamalia told reporters that most of his family were killed in a strike the weekend for behavior. this is the bread that they wanted to eat for breakfast. what good is bread? if there is no safety or peace, we don't want food red or flower. we want safety and bees of the un estimates that between 75 and 95000 people are in northern gaza, living in dia conditions last week, files and this followed is really on the old is to evacuate. they not here are you

. in fact, panel says, funding is imminent in northern gauze. it an assessment dismissed as inaccurate by israel. i spoke to shina low a spokesperson for the norwegian refugee council, and asked her whether her organization would cooperate those claims. but israel has failed to meet us. a demands not only in israel, not increase the amount of a go in the guy that as the report indicated, the amount to be going into gaza in the month of october was the lowest point. i sent aid started being delivered in october of last year. this is, as we've seen, that needs continue to grow and the fact that a lesson must eat is getting in and reaching people in need. it's simply catastrophic. what does that look like on the ground? can you give us a sense of what your colleagues see when it comes to a distribution and gaza and the people that they're meeting who need it?

well, there's very little ada coming in. and so it's often, it seems people are trying the best that they can to deliver and distribute aid and orderly fashion. but it's incredibly difficult operating there because of the level of desperation. we're also hearing as, as we heard in the report that people say, the agent some ways is useless unless there's a ceasefire because the needs will continue to grow and, and there's no relief in sight. now we've heard also that the situation is particularly difficult in the north of gaza warnings of fam and there something that israel has denied from what you're hearing from people who've seen it with their own eyes. what, what is your assessment of the situation there as well? we haven't been able to send staff into the northern most part of guys a where the communities of jamalia beat law here on the time noon are under a tremendous siege where little to no aid has reached and in over a month. but what we're hearing from our staff in the city was met with people who

are a plant. those areas is that it's just seems a desperation. there's no food. there is no clean water to drink. people are struggling to find anything to survive. the hospitals are besieged, there's no medicine or very little medicine coming in and, and for the people who have slept, they often arrive with nothing. they have nothing but what they did carry on their hands and they have a very few safe places to seek shelter. in the city or in addition to us these far which new and many other 8 organizations have called for in order to care for these people. are there other specific things that israel could do to make access to that aid and its ability to reach people in gaza? easier as well. we need an opening of all of the crossings at the same time to allow for a search of 8. we need israel to remove the arbitrary restrictions that's preventing certain life saving aid from reaching cause i heard recently from a,

our colleagues in the shelter cluster that timber that's needed to, to build, make shift shelters for the 1900000. how it means we've been internally displaced, forcibly displaced, are not allowed in so we need those restrictions listed. on top of that, we need to be able to move to all parts of god that were civilians are in need. and we need israel to stop rejecting request for humanitarian convoys to reach those communities. we also need a, a restoration of law and order. a surge of aid would help to create those conditions because demand of supply increases demand would, would reduce and it would be kind of easier for our colleagues to reach community safely and ensure that they're getting the aid that they need. china, thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us on dw, that is shayna lowe was the norwegian refugee council. you

turned into some alternatives now. the u. s. federal aviation administration has banned all us civilian flights to haiti for 30 days. that after 2 commercial planes were hit by gunfire on monday, haiti's main airport remains closed after games targeted the aircraft. the violence came on the same day that the country's new interim prime minister was born in business man, alex tga. if he's, if he has pledged to rescue the country, a task which numerous predecessors of his have failed at around 85 percent of the capital is controlled by gangs hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced and parts of the country are on the brake of famine, passengers on board this aircraft were about to land and haiti's capital. when they heard loud sounds and felt the plane deviating from its rude or it was only after they made an emergency landing in the neighboring dominican republic. that they found out they had been shot at from the ground. one flight attendant was injured.

so initially i didn't know what the reasoning was, but then as we realize that room landing in different country and as the fire department is approaching, it certainly was a gradual building of adrenalin eighty's. main airport remain closed the day after the shooting, which took place submit a wave of violence triggered by the swearing in of new interim prime minister alex, due to a fees on me. the business man and son of a prominent activist was appointed by a transitional counsel after conflict arose with his predecessor, these, i mean named his top priorities and holding, hey, these 1st elections since 2016 and getting a grip on the security situation is. but the guy google, the most saw you members of the presidential council before the entire nation met. when did you know, i pledge my energy, my skills of my program,

patriotism to set the national cause, which is our challenge to defend the bad and the difference. but bringing peace to a country and k us has proven to be a tall order on these amazed 1st day in office fire fights broke out between games and police in porto products and homes were set on fire. the un back police support mission led by kenya has produced a few results. and politicians promises no longer carrying much weight with many haitians. for struggling to feed their families and keep a roof over their heads. for more on this story, i'm very pleased to welcome with or mand court, the editor in chief of the independent news organization, he will post. he joins us from the haitian capital for all products. so if i understand correctly, haiti's main airport is still closed after games shot at those us

aircraft. what does that mean for life in the capital as well? i mean it's, it's a very difficult situation, but it's something that was, you know, coming along the way people are expecting such a thing to happen. we have to remember that's the 2nd time in this year. that the games are able to shut down. you know, the haitian, the national airport here, just single give it to your outputs, which is the main, a lot of the country and you know, these games to the uh, or powerful as i was speaking to you right now would probably be here and, you know, civil gunshots, heavy gunshots in the neighborhood where i am about 25 minutes from the hate. the national. by last, it's a very difficult situation. you know, more and more haitians, uh, you know, having to leave the house is because of, of getting banners today. i think it's difficult for many to understand just how

much the security situation has deteriorated. can you tell us a little bit more pain to picture for us of how this is affecting life for those in haiti as well. and visually, you know, everything is secure. the nice today in heating is affected by dick and violence. we're not just talking about 100 percent of the capital one. i'm going to influence of the games, including key neighborhoods. 100 percent controlled by you know, the need is the games. we have that just talking about the fact that the main rooms banking people from the outside of the coffee to, to the center of, of, of, of the economy class which is but events today, 100 percent control advisory games. we're not just talking about civil and neighborhoods edition of the, you know, the, the concern of the game. it seems that kenya is arriving really back in june. we are talking about the possibilities for loans. but i didn't buy that. she also came

about know assuming that you might need to increase. ready hundreds of thousands of people actually seems to see their own was because of the violence you're talking about. now, the united states services, you know, effectively by means of civilian brands to lending hated for the next 30 days because of the banners. we're thinking also about the fact that you know, the main force of hating that function and for many in a country with about 60 to 70 percent of what we consume comes from a groups that you might turn. situation is going to get worse, and all of the compiling, you know, problems that we had before, almost going to get. i need to argue about the new prime minister just just as before, we've run out of time. he said his top priorities are restoring order. just briefly, if you could, how effective do you think he can be as well,

this space has been raising for the remains the same, but the government is we do. what we do know is fundamentally nothing change. you know, between the last week and this week in regards to the power of the state to take over the guides, you know, the force is when the effect of the patient, national police is one equity. so this is where we are today. thank you so much for your time. that is with our man court speaking to us from port au prince and hays. he now now oil and gas giant show has one is appeal in a landmark climate fully a dr. appeals court announced on tuesday that shell does not have to sharply cut its greenhouse gas emissions as had been previously ruled that delivering a blow to environmental activists possible. fisher disappointment, tears flow as active as watch their hopes. it gets hard emissions coats from oil

and gas, try and shell disappear was coming as of course, environmental campaigners were defy. and the split i'd say for the fight against dangerous climate change isn't madison, not just the frame is i've erased, as i knew just begun in 2021 active as reveled as a ruling ordered shell to cut 45 percent of its net carbon emissions. but 2013 compared to 2019 levels is applied to shelves own emissions, and those of its customers to use oil and gas and cars to heat their homes um beyond. as a landmark ruling, it was the 1st time a company have been legally forced to take on such drastic climate measure as challenging the ruling show argued and course decisions being unfairly targeted. and those other companies would take over any fossil fuels. it didn't also extract judges of the appeals course in the hague. such show could not be held to

a specific legal go, or reduction of its greenhouse gas emissions. child's chief executive. welcome to ruling in a written statement, our target to become a net 0 emissions energy business by 2050 remains at the hearts of shells strategy . and it's transforming our business. we're making good progress and our strategy to deliver more value with less submissions. environmental is disagree, and they're like you to look to the supreme court to appeal the decision. their hope for oil joins to be held responsible for the emissions coal spike burdick. their products. i spoke earlier to the director of the group that brought that case against show that would be donald polls from the video, defend, cease, or friends of the earth, another ones you saw him just now in that report. i asked him for his reaction to the ruling. yeah, you can imagine that the that we are very disappointed, we hope that the quotes would confirm the ruling and 1st instance in the appeal

that shell should reduce it. c o. 2 emissions in accordance with the international climate agreements that did not happen. and you call this a marathon, not a sprint. will you be appealing the result? we will 1st study the reading by the judge fairly and then besides what's our next steps would be. but then the bill is clearly one of the more realistic options. now, for our viewers have not been following this case closely. can you just tell us a little bit about about shows and missions about what it does that you felt it was so important to take this case to court. the shell is one of the largest pollutants in the world. if shell was a country, emissions would only be trumped by india, china, and russia and the us and, and by forcing show to reduce its emissions in accordance with international time,

with the agreements, we would have changed the struggle against the insurance climate change because it will not the only impact cell itself, but o large pollute this. at this stage, $57.00 companies are responsible for 80 percent of o global emissions. we can only achieve climate civilization if these companies are also forced to implement international alignment agreements. so just so i understand the nuances of this case in particular show says that the part parents claimant agreement applies to governments that, that, that's where people should be directing their efforts. does this court ruling support their case? no, it doesn't. uh, the quotes ruling in itself is there all the complex because the court recognized that cell has a, is contributing to dangerous climate change and to then change or is climate the

change to human rights violations. that shell has the obligation, the legal obligation to reduce its contribution to dangerous climate change. and that the more than $800.00 new oil and gas projects blend by a shell is contradictory to international climate agreements and its responsibility to not contribute to human rights verify license to and that's and then the conclusion. unfortunately, the judge said while shell has the obligation to reduce it, c o 2 emissions, it is unclear specifically what that reduction targets of cells should be. and the, for the judge decided to not confirm the outcome of the court in the 1st instance. so it was this issue of specific reduction targets that came into play here. what do you think the court's ruling news for the future?

of course as as an app and you for holding non government climate polluters accountable? yes, of course. this gifts mixed signals that is clear um, purely on the legal side, because the judge ruled that show has the obligation to reduce it c o 2 emissions and they for limit to its contribution to human rights violations. this can be used in both cases in the future. as in that same states, a platform full for the climate, the cases not only in the netherlands, but globally of course, uh as well, your defense itself into a specific guys we, we would need to recuperate and reorder insights, ourselves on how to move forward. because the routing in the end did not say a confident outlay. well, thank you so much for joining us on the news to speak about this. this was donald paul's, the director of video defense. he,

we very much appreciate your time this evening. thank you very much. i and that is your news update office hours, stay with us, so i'll be back after a short break to take you through the day. if it's more news and analysis headlines are looking for that's always available online at dw talk. richardson, thank you for watching caesar, the

fear, anger and resignation. the war in the middle east is highly polarizing. we as young as release and palestinians in berlin. what their experiences, if in like, over the past year, they still feel at home in the city whose voices have been silenced, set become louder. snow stopped in 45 minutes on d w. the

might see these. how much can we do simultaneously? multitasking these the modern methods because if we do too much at $130.00 all wrong, we mess things up, risking brain damage. so let's stop this self sabotage humans and multitasking. watching our new to v w documentary. devastated houses soft are we can change. i mean the for a station in the rain forest continue, carbon dioxide emissions have risen again. the people of the world are we, what impact the biggest change doesn't happen?

the make up your own mind. made the new update to the twists and turns of germany's political crisis. the main political parties have now agreed a date to hold fresh elections. february 23rd sooner than chancellor. all actual wanted, but still not before donald trump takes office across the atlantic, the shape of his next administration is becoming clever. so what will a hard line approach to immigration mean for america? i'm clear. richardson in for when you are watching the day the .
