a night of celebrations, palestinians wake up to a familiar reality is rarely tanks converge on the key rough of border crossing. these really are me saying is taking control of the check point is guys. aside. in the city of rough people are searching for bodies under the rubble following dead leaves rarely strikes over night last month because these heavy guns by a very very heavy bombardment with plains low rockets, tank machine guns such a never in my life. have i seen this? them? i'm almost 69 years old in my life. i've never seen bombings like this. i love your . how about on tuesday is real dropped lift. let's have a rough uh urgent residence to leave the parts of the city for what it calls an expanded too many towering area of the,

the order of food in many displace palestinians on the move again. the now they're saying to evacuate from rafa within which we go. ton unit has ruined what is left they ruined our lives. there's nothing left. there's no safety and no home. there is no one but god has sent us. no, no, we don't know where to go and tell us where to go. and it's all my was the income unit, the safe place, my yeah, on the 10th is the water. is the electricity is the food and drink and is it a safe place? and that's the guns i now have a nice safe place to be on the can wait on the move with our children. and we can find safety on the look on where all the arab countries to see us going to emphasize without children upon the use of whom us except in the seats for was met with joy on the streets of gods on monday evening. but i was late to israel's attacks, stop the celebrations. but let's get more now from our correspondent in

jerusalem. rebecca richards, rebecca, tell us more about israel's military operation in rough. uh what's on folding there as well. terry, as it has that is riley miller tre, have concerned that they have now operational control of the palestinian side of that rasa border crossing. they say that they are doing sweeps based on intelligence information that suggests that homos have militants operating in the area. they haven't provided any evidence for that intelligence, but they are conducting sweeps. they say that the operation is ongoing, and they have a cold winter yesterday they, they called for round about a 100000 people who were sheltering in that east and rafa area to evacuate. that area, we have started this easy, so some images there in that report. people thousands of people evacuating that area, wondering whether there is any point safe place to go. as you heard one woman in that report suggest that even the policy chief saying that there is no safe, so in,

in gaza, despite the fact that the is really military is saying that they have set off a so called humanitarian safe area. but we do know that the strikes have been continuing, in fact, they've picked up as early as sunday night, and they have been intensifying in that time uh sunday night in response to what, what was claimed by how mazda is a strike on the caring shall, on border crossing, killing full is riley soldiers. so then the security cabinet last night, given the order that they could go in to go into the ground operation, and that's what we're seeing on folding. when not sure about the time frame at this stage. terry, we don't know whether it be as ready, military or looking to take over that area on a more permanent basis. i shouldn't really use the word permanent, but on a, on a more, on a longer basis a whether this will be a short and shop targeted attack. they are cooling at precision. what does have to say how it unfolds? while you're speaking that rebecca, just want to remind our viewers that we're looking at live pictures from gaza right now. there's are pictures of the skyline of gods and we can see smoke right. rising

in the, in the background. rebecca, i wanted to put a question to you about the humanitarian situation. there the, the rafa and chrome shalom crossings are closed relief agency site a that's the there warning the humanitarian aid for goes is now being choked off. what are you hearing? it's it may and even more difficult situation, certainly, since those 2 major crossings has been closed, param shalom has been closed since sunday night, as i just mentioned, since that must strike on on it. and now of course, graphic crossing is also closed roughly being the main crossing to allow fuel into the strip. and notice you in the gaza strip, of course, plays a very, it puts a very heavy toll on the humanitarian situation with the world health organization saying it's very, very difficult if there's no fuel coming through to continue a humanitarian operation. we have seen some non fuel aid coming through that area is crossing which was recently open on the pressure from the u. s. but, you know,

now we have almost the reverse problem that we was saying earlier in the fact that we've got a coming in from the north. but it's having to make its way all the way down to the south. and that some incredibly difficult task is seen as strikes in the north of this trip as well today. so definitely the humanitarian situation, which was already in a dia, dia state is going to be even hotter and certainly, and jose, uh, organizations, uh, definitely telling me, um what about the ceasefire talks that have been on going, they've been kind of on again off again where did things stand now? rebecca? yeah, well, i mean that's been the situation for months, but of course as many view as will have seen in recent days, they were looking almost positive. they was sort of quiet optimism or even actually louder optimism people saying that we were getting closer to potential faced by a deal. israel did agree to the terms of one particular deal and it was sent off to

a mouse for their approval. they have been dragging their feet this week and then last night they came out out saying that they had agreed to a somewhat slightly tweaked deal. now we don't have create information of exactly what the changes are in this new deal that has been drafted by egyptian and guitar . and negotiate is along with help from the us to say, i change also really putting pressure on trying to get these still trying to get the, the, the huge divide but which is surrounding this coal for of a permanent si, fi. that is what, how must have been demanding, and that is something that is around a saying that absolutely not willing to do. and we had budget benjamin netanyahu just a few days ago saying that this ross or operation would continue whether or not there is a deal. and that certainly seems to be what is playing out though israel is sending . we hear a mid level delegation to kyra to continue the talk. so perhaps there is some hope

that there could still reach an agreement as well. obviously, you know, it is the thinking that they, they could perhaps try to come to some agreement and that so right, going to take place later in cairo. but as you say, these have been up and down and it's not over the line until it's over the line. terry. rebecca, thank you very much. those are correspond to rebecca rivers, interest, a smell to russia. wherever vladimir 15 has been sworn in is present for another 6 year term, booting took the oath of office and the ceremony at the kremlin in moscow. i made great fan fair. many western countries boycotting the event due to them for a new crane. 151, a landslide victory and a controversial election in march, though without any genuine opposition candidate allowed to run against him. during his and organization address, 13 said leading was quote, a sacred duty and that the country would pass through this difficulty him hearing

me maggie. as of more now i'm joined by dw, is russia analyst costs the team. i got costs between what was put in the main message in as a non duration address. well, these main message was that russia is still going strong. that is supposed to, if he likes to say these days by the global majority meeting, circle club themselves. you also mentioned that russia is open to talks the conversations to a dialogue. oh, with the west bought on condition that the west that she said we stopped denigrating russian trying to limit its growth and developed. i think there was one very interesting moment to these integrations by seeing them all since 2000 the 2000, which is 1st integration. this was the 1st one when the president's of and bluetooth did not mention quite the freedom of democracy. in the speech we have to stand in

such a dream is just lip service, but he did not mention the liberties of citizens. he did not mention democracy. and that's very, very interesting and very significant in his words. and what is no important is tell for lines uh, so health coverage during his last term calls to 15, launched a full scale invasion of ukraine, which huge implications for russia and its neighbors. what are the challenges that bloody me putting is likely to face in his next time to his main challenges if i may say so, is the fact that his regime does not develop that stability turned into stick nation pretty much every fear. and this is the main risk because that basically allows you into thinking that everything goes on, right. and the other charges, which is of course, for the primary one, it's the prosecution of the war against the great,

which has been going to too long. it's not the victorious war. let's face. and there are many, many potentially unpleasant surprises that may change the situation russian, but so far it did not change the public opinion, did not turn the public opinion against find the link in the long term process. international isolation is functions, do i do carry a lot of danger, especially for russian industry in russian luxury industry, which as x per se works now if it's peak capacity is put in, continues to prosecute the warranty that i think you will do that. it is still a long term challenge, but again, all these terms, the challenges that stretched in time, none of them as a mutual customer teen stay with us. well, we listen to what you form policy change. joseph burrell has been saying about putting swearing it for me, the position was clear,

it was going to be very difficult for the brain is for many people around the world to understand that we're going to see that food in someone evicted by the, to negative the cleaning, of course, responsible for the or new grain elections that we contest because the way i not for the need the fair elections and then to at the end the navigation, it would be ugly, a contradiction. so my, my advice to the members judge best not to attend on a hold the menu, then most of them will follow. this is the same situation, but each member of your state is fully silverlane to decide to go or not to as a uniform policy chief of joseph burrell. they're costing teen. there's little or no opposition left in russia today. many kremlin critics are either dead or in prison. some say that preteen harbors imperialist ambitions wanting to restore the soviet union. is there anything left standing and put things way?

now, 1st of all, i think that to, to the local, to restore the so each union, but he does want to restore rushes. so impact to influence all neighboring states. it wants to go back essentially to the situation which russia was 2nd only to the united states. if the world viewing well, i think that's, that there's not enough. there is no real place starting rate inside russia, but i think that's his main eastern. his main problem is actually you great. that's to fight sold to the west, which seems increasingly in 10 to inclined to engage russia in the new economic, an arms race, which in the long term rush for kevin with costing thank you very much for that. that was d. w as cause the teen egg. joining us today from building us sketchup on a few other stories making headlines around the world today,

firefighters in japan are battling a forest fire for 3rd day in the northeastern yamagata prefecture, hundreds of residents living in the mountains area mountain. this area had been ordered to evacuate. the cause of the place is being investigated. rescue efforts are underway in south africa after at least 5 people died when a building under construction collapsed. dozens of workers have already been pulled from the rubble, but more remained trapped. local officials at around 70 people were working out the sides in the city of george when the collapse happened. the 4 digits in brussels have searched through european parliament offices of a top lawmaker. from the far right alternative for germany party officials said the raid maximilian kraus office was in connection with the probe into the politicians . a who was arrested last month on suspicion of spying for china

to german warships sub set sail towards the end of the city region. in an effort to increase germany's military presence in that area, the frankfurt a mine ship set off on tuesday from the northern german port, a village homes hoffman, german defense minister motors. the story is said, rising tensions between china and taiwan and over the south china sea were putting pressure on freedom of navigation and trade routes of more on this. let's go now to the w as chief, political correspondent. you know, how does that mean that why is germany sending to warships to the in the pacific now as well? basically as the demonstrates on the ground that germany is a reliable partner for all those countries in that region. that like to many believe in international corporation and the rule based international order. i'm believing that principle that tons of all of charts keeps talking about what must count is the strength of the law and not the right of the strong one. so to be

honest, germany neglected the end pacific for decades and over the last few years, the recognition has grown here in berlin that the area is becoming to, to be important. with all those rising powers, like india or in china, the playing a most significant political role in the international institutions. and the area is also she to be significant because germany is an export focused country. so does needs to build a t for its trade routes in that region, and it needs its partners that and rushes illegal war against ukraine is threatening that principle of respecting territorial integrity wells live on here. there's a growing resignation in bell in the politics cannot just be done by the telephone or zoom. cool. you need to show yourself, you need your people to get to know your partner's people. they need to do military exercises together and practice that regularly. that's what's in the, in the pacific guidelines that balloon gave itself in 2020 and that's why they're sending those ships. and also some planes from the point of this that to the region need to stay with us. because this in the pacific mission is part of

a much bigger shift in germany's approach to security and defense. and we want to take a look at that because the warren ukraine has prompted the so called sites and vendors, you know, we're turning point in how germany is dealing with security matters and what it's doing with this armed forces for the pilots of the ban display as a transport group, this is a big deal. finally, getting a shaw from the chip heavy lift helicopter. there. so just the training exercise on dodge machines. theme is for the germans to be ready to fly in 2027. when they're new chips arrived to replace the decades on the course, and then all you who fall by the new helicopter flies much faster than the old one . a can transport about twice as much as our old helicopters and is equipped with the latest technology. so of course, it's a big step for us into the future. need to include the price tag for the $60.00 or genex is $7000000000.00 euros. you hangers will be built here to house them. not

only that, the states of the art is really built, our way of defense system will also be located here as a cost of 4000000000. and the runway is being white and to a low need to wear across to lunch here. all of that means that there's a, a b so so bell lead miss being turned into one of the most important in europe in the shed will be fest speakers. you can really see that we're making history here and you can say that we will be the future home of the air force is heavy transport . helicopters making is one of nature's largest helicopter bases outside the us. that was off its being paid for item a, one off $100000000000.00 military modernization fund, said top pop to russia invaded ukraine hoffman the for decades. germany has missed naples, 2 percent target on defense spending. in 2024. it hit that target. now the question is, what happens once the special fund runs out the keys,

hazing the 2 percent target. the government will have to spend an extra $30000000000.00 euros every year on defense that's ignite to the debates about how to pay for it. all. gilbert assess team uh i think yourself it gives security and defense is being discussed much more seriously among the population than it was a few years ago. i noticed this myself regularly at different events. the people have a much greater understanding abundance of as needs less than as a city adolfo, they're going to say that such sentiments may reflect that going shift and attitudes towards the boons as well. whether it will translate into a long term funding boost is very much up in the air. you know, tell us more about this trends formation taking place in german defense thinking. how significant is this shift as well? i would say the process is underway as way hubs and the report that people are

beginning to realize that the topic of defense is something that needs to be taken seriously again. but of course it does require a mindset change of the population. the world is not going to become a safer place any time soon. that is the principle that is guiding politicians here in berlin. we hear that all the time. but of course germany did live off the peace dividend after the collapse of communism for decades. so they got some place and they were under the belief that defense can be neglected. they reduce the military significantly, their only now beginning to ramp up the infrastructure again as we saw and civil protection measures. and so there are lots of very concrete issues that the buttons that has to deal with recruitment is one of them. they don't have enough soldiers. infrastructure, all of these things take a lot of time and lots of money. so we'll have shorts is speaking of that site and when did that happen when russell loans loans its invasion against your trade?

but germany would have to sit very clear priorities here also in terms of where the money is spent and that is not happening enough. and not happening fast enough, according to many experts that we talk to in the regular basis. you know, thank you very much. that was their chief, political correspondent, nina hoss now to india. we're butting is underway in the 3rd phase of that countries staggered national election prime minister and the render moody who, seeking a 3rd term cast his ballot in his own state of goods or up bodies. hindu nationalist b. j. p. party is widely favorite when millions of people are casting their ballots today across 95 constituencies. it's a key issue that's arisen in this election is use unemployment. half of india is 1400000000 people under the age of 30 dw staley correspondence shadow. yeah. that looks at the situation of young people who feel left behind

they're looking for work in the ex soviet union, the russia ukraine war they've, they've even attempted to go to israel to do construction work on the front lines because palestinian workers have been thrown off on account of these, you know, the gaza award that has been going on. so it's grim, it's very c burn us. so it's a week what was the last 10 years in my 1st 5 minutes to read the movie has gold, india is youth, the driving, forceful group, and promise millions of new jobs. those promises ring hollow, the young indians like deep will studied hard, but feel like the not a part of india is growth study. so i've got to kind of see if it comes to what happened to you. the problem is over offering millions of journals. those are gonna be the countries the future is made up in the u. i who the use itself is on the deep deck. i very, how would the economy go forward and it's, i got the busy going because he, i guess i need this 30,
