4:06 pm
do you see them the front of them? beyond the practical, there are the emotional issues in play for so many syrian refugees living in turkey who are considering a return home you, i mean your story and how being and then we serious $100.00 total on this. another part of us the once to say, we have to come like family here and bill comes with other people. the key activity i couldn't was heard of. many to women married siri, a man about, and many serial men married turkish women went to share that sort of need. we're living together and points to select all. thank god. so let me now she, this is the spot where many syrian refugees expect to cross back into their homeland. one thing they'll have to consider before that moment, the fact that most will lose their temporary protection status in turkey. once they step over the border to moving to another pos of syria, now the golan heights. israel sees the region from syria in 1967 during the 6 day
4:07 pm
war and antics this in 1981. the 3rd street is considered to be occupied on the international low. it's separated from neighboring syrian controls territory by a buffer zone, supported by the united nations now full villages and the golan heights, a home to a combined population of just over 20000 drew's. the drews, are an estimate. religious are upset, most of whom identifies syrian, but hold is really residents cons, tonya c, my reports now from the occupied area and then use some. syria is a constant distasteful form, but to show her in method in the is really occupied golden heights a syrian drew's. she has family and both live in them and syria, home to zone and here in the gold and we're watching very closely and we are worried about,
4:08 pm
i know the one who we are scared about the future of the syrian people. almost all of them saw the sort of and especially we are scared for our relatives and families were in syria. i don't know, but i have now in any sort of yeah, she talks to relatives and syria every day. just a few miles away over the border. people are domestic. you've got how are you telling me if you're ok? thank god, thank god, we are very happy. we are celebrating that. i know and kind of a square people came from a couple of places. come in to so way down to shell and i'll have him is different . but here a few kilometers away in most as homes right on the seas for a line with syria. people are also watching is where it's reaction. i'm right here at the seas for a line and the buffers in between israel and syria is really military have moved in . and many people here see that as a violation of the agreement,
4:09 pm
which set up the buffer zone is, was that it has seized some areas which were left by the syrian forces. and that the 1974 does engagement. the agreement between the 2 countries has collapsed. the most people in this choose town choose not to become, is rarely citizens when the colon hi, so a captain occupied in the 267 and later next, right is room in musters homes. the conflicting opinions or the means of address it. first of all, i am pro assets. but what happens is it's not my decision that i can, at least i'm sorry if i what happens. but i hope you have that the situation with the other side would be better and then before a man and there can be so the level actually mckalters, this sort of gene was collapse because he was unjust. he regulated the syrians,
4:10 pm
he killed them. the problem to them with everything with the bottle, is with bombs, with most of the give me trouble with those. i think there is no singular human there was, did it to his people. except this is what do you see? another worries what comes next to syria. my thought is cautiously optimistic that the new transition of government to protect all communities, including the twos community and syria, and he owned by the amount that happened. and now that i saw his fall, and we're scared safe because delani was with all new strong, which was considered a terrorist organization of the new model. so that looks like and if he, my son, if he had had a i see how they're dealing with things on the ground that can give a sense when they enter the level. there's been no problem with the other communities. in fact, while ahead of them, as those ma'am can sway beside did you? how about the life hopes and fears that are likely to keep people on edge for weeks to come?
4:11 pm
his look at some of the other stories making headlines today and dropping his trunk little efforts as well as parliament to hold a vote with confidence in his leadership next monday. that's the following. recent collapse of his coalition government is as expected, he loses that vote stuff. elections would take place in germany and february palestinian officials say more than 2 dozen people have been killed in as rainy as strikes and garza. several family members died when the house in those are a refugee camp was hit. israel says how most of millison safari and the projectiles from garza and remain a danger. telephones administered for refugees has been killed in an explosion in the ask on capital kabul kelly will have connie seen here 2 years ago. is the most high profile official kills, since the taliban were 10 to power? no one has admitted carrying out the attack. the death toll from the russian attack

4:13 pm
a customer who's in sol to tell us more about investigates as being blocked from searching the president's offices. oh yeah, that is right. so it is really the number one question that's also the public demands answer as to it. it's really a crucial question because the investigators want to know what happened during those hours when the marshal was imposed. why that decision was made, how it was made. and now um, when the police try to rate the presidential office at 1st, you don't have the korean use agency report with that, actually the police indeed rated the compound of the presidential office. but later it corrected the use of saying that the police forces have been blocked from entering the building. now that is really outrages. so the security personal and of the presidential office block, the police um, obviously this something or some documents that the president wants to hide. i don't know any more details. i'm sure that will come to light in the coming days.
4:14 pm
but this is really the crucial question and there was also a question that is discussed at the event where i'm right now i'm hands also the improvise setting. i meant the business event where the prime minister just gave a speech and he tried to, um, you had come down investors and saying everything was stable. but just the events that unfolded today. again, show that this is really, i mean we have pop from reaching a yeah, a period of normality. i mean, this is really quite an emotional question right now that the public, the mounts, answers to and probably, and tell us more about the south korean defense minister who's seen isn't his a t play a in that brief imposition of mouthful, i guess what the defense when i say it's an old body, i'm, if i can say it just informed me like this of the president. they went to the same high school and he was seen as a crucial person and an open supporter of that decision. i'm to impose the muscle, but actually we don't know his concrete role, and some people say that he was the mastermind behind
4:15 pm
a t p. initiated the decision. but of course would to make those conclusions. you really have to be careful because i'm in the end of course, it could be an intentional so by the president to present escape go to basically lower his own risk bunch of responsibilities. but of course, the most of the public are saying that, i mean, in the end of the president who made that decision, can use the final decision. and probably also then has to take the responsibility. is it right? there's a defense. minnesota has been arrested and, and we're also hearing that he's reportedly attempted suicide is, can you confirm this back? yes. so actually he could commit to try to commit suicide yesterday night in his cell. that was just before, i mean is he there are investigation against him and pushed against possible treason. i mean high treason that is really a serious crime. so he's facing several years in prison. possibly even
4:16 pm
a death sentence, at least a per law. that will be possible, and yes it yesterday, i'm at the, the people from the prison where he is right now said that he tried to commit suicide, but his health condition seemed stable at the moment. and this is all the details that we know at this moment. gentlest of thought in such mind who is in so far the end. thank you so much. i as far as heights as a bustling of foster spreading wall toilet in southern california, the friends and philip near the city of malibu. already cub is more than 10 square co. columbus has the blazes threatening seaside, mentioned psalms and the university around $1500.00 firefighters. all right, let's see and infernal has been making its way across southern california threatening homes, forcing evacuations and leaving devastation and its week. for many, the damage caused by the flames has hit especially close to home. i remember
4:17 pm
playing in this house in the front yard with my schoolmates lived. that's how long i've been here. my whole life pauses of residents were evacuated over night, as the fire quickly spread. many are still trying to leave the area. firefighters has been working non stop fighting the flames day and night, but so far they haven't managed to bring the blaze under control. this fire is not contained and we remain under an immediate threat because of the red flag conditions. thankfully, we have no reports of serious injuries or fatalities. although no fatalities have been reported yet. the situation remains critical. authorities are warning that winds up addicted to reach 130 kilometers per hour, making the fire even more dangerous. a cub and credits
4:18 pm
portrayed as a tool to help make polluting industries cleanup. but now it seems they've also provided an opportunity for a 1000000000 euro fraud. the lead scheme includes carbon credits from germany and oil fields in china, dw investigations together with the german public pro costa z d. s. reveal how germinal thursday is what tricked it all started with a tip off a chinese company had developed environmental projects at oil fields in china that were supposed to save millions of tons of carbon emissions in reality. and inside our told us, they were part of a 1000000000 euro fraud. setting up a real project cost tens of millions where it's vacant and project just purely on paper. like out of senior, you only need to forge of basket of new documents and you gain hundreds of millions of bureaus and return the projects were submitted under a german scheme. allowing companies here to meet their emission targets by
4:19 pm
investing in carbon saving projects abroad. in the months long investigation dw and its partners, adf acquired thousands of pages of project documents and compared them with satellite images and photos. we found 16 projects, which should not have been eligible under the germans, came a my because they were not building something new. take this project in china is shouldn't young region the station collects gas that would otherwise be released during oil extraction. saving more than a $120000.00 tons of carbon emissions a year. the application lists the planned project start date, september 2020 but satellite images from 2019 to the plant was already there. the for n g tanks are clearly visible. the truck tracks and the security flare suggest that the site was in fact operational more than one year before the application in
4:20 pm
germany was filed. his project should never have been approved. it's not acceptable for the plan to already exist before the application was submitted. and yet, germany's environmental agency green light it, as well as 65 other project in china. their total market value is an estimated $2000000000.00 euros. the agencies president dark messner told us that none of its employees ever visited any of the projects in china. they relied on the audits conducted by private companies and we only have 3 colleagues in the federal environment agency who deals with all of these projects that they contact the technical data in any detail. and they come and check satellite images either we cannot say for sure whether the auditing companies were in on the fraud. but what we did find were many in consistencies in their reports. take this project,
4:21 pm
which was supposedly visited by auditors 7 times in the reports, they confirmed that the installation consisted of 6 big storage tanks and 12 generators. with satellite images and photos we acquired only ever show for tanks and for generators. besides very unlikely, the inspector was on the side facing tanks, cons to be missing. so the inspectors didn't do their job. absolutely not. or even was the order time should be suspended, entitlements within these companies to just become part of the deception. that would be a worst case scenario. the german environment agency has placed 45 projects under suspicion and says it is now working to resend as many of the credits as possible. the program is close to new applications. the full damage has yet to emerge. one thing, however, is already abundantly clear. it didn't take a lot to defraud a system that was supposed to make
4:22 pm
a dirty industry. a little cleaner. with me now is my teeth butting up from the w's invest investigative team and the form a china correspond to a t s u, a pos of this investigation. what you said clarify for us, 1st of all, who is behind this alleged fruits who is actually deceiving the gym and state. and so what we found in the documents, although based on the 1st game, seemed to have been 5 by different companies with different projects. and there was one chinese company behind all of them. it's a company based in badging. they specialize on comm credits and on a couple consulting companies want to reduce that carbon footprint. i found that which is also interesting is the former official last be working in the energy policy sector. and this company seems to have basically made off all of these documents and filed them here in germany. so is it fair to say that the terminal socrates didn't at all do that due to diligence?
4:23 pm
and that's one of the, of course, obligations towards the, to the, the german authorities. they have approved lots of projects from just one company from a country which is not a major oil producing. i'll do this is just, he's eligible projects have to be an oil. well, so it's already a bit suspicious that so many of them came from china or but 5 by one company. so yes, but the real, a focus is on the what do you think companies private companies on whose audits these decisions were based on the locations that they might have colluded with agent come, we have no proof for that. that would be, can say for sure is that they have not done their job. they have gone to the sites and they have not seen what they were supposed to see there. and now that little of this has come to light is anything actually going to change? i mean, in the way that the drum and government approves schemes like this, the authority in charge was trying to rethink these uh. com credits. um,
4:24 pm
there are questions around that because some of them have already been re sold, etc. so all the do traditional aspects i so being evaluated and there is an announcement today confronted with our investigation, the spokes person has said that they were working towards a lower that would mandates german inspectors government inspectors to visit all of these kinds of project in different countries, i'm not sure whether this is possible. honestly, i don't see the chinese government allowing german inspectors to rome or on china and inspect this kind of project. so i think we'll see what comes out of that. the question remains very difficult and that these kind of program that is certified in one country, whereas the all setting is happening somewhere in a completely different setting and in the completely different countries. this is of course something that will have to be revisited. this program has now been stopped. okay, so no guarantees that anything will change as what you're saying. the fraudulent
4:25 pm
credits will was about 1000000000 euro is when they has this money going or so from what we could find out. the companies who bought these credits uh, dealt with this company badging badging. com and they seem to have wired the money to their bank account, a home phone bank account. and we do not, of course no where else is had there she is in that and etc. how much money went from there to others. but um, it seems that all the money um house 1st and foremost being collected by this one company. just very briefly, a common trading off is often seen as a call pallet, isn't it? so big polluters is this investigation going to make people trust this even less as one of the people who we talk to has said i'm, this is not just counting, taking this on something you can touch. it relies on the trust that just com reduction is really happening is that trust is gone. of course, the upgrade repercussions for the markets to www. is mathias a building
4:26 pm
a and you can find the investigation caught you on the w's youtube channel planet, a which is thank you. now the absence of humans can often be a good thing for other space, ease, gray seals, for example. all now thriving on the english coastline form a cold hole weapons testing facility has been filled off to allow the call in the to grow and it have the sizes now home to about 4, hundreds of the threatened sales molds and ac pops have been born already this winter and more are expected in the next rest of the week. so let's get you a quick reminder of our top story now. a smart al sharah, the leader of syria's revel, coalition says officials involved in torturing prisoners under the ousted outside were he will not be pod. he's all of the countries to handle the any who may
