Plus theres been plenty of missed out of this week for the 1st moon landing 50 years ago but what about the Lunar Missions of the future we need a german astronaut whos hoping to become the next man to walk on the moon. Im sumi so misconduct thank you for joining us. U. S. President donald trump says an american warship destroyed an iranian drone in the strait of hormuz on thursday trump accused iran of quote provocative and hostile action he said the drone had come within a 1000 meters of the u. S. S. Boxer and Amphibious Assault ship trump said the drone was downed after repeated warnings were ignored the alleged incident comes after iran shot down a u. S. Drone last month and after iran seized a u. A. E. Flag to tanker in the strait over the weekend now Iranian Foreign minister Mohammad Javad zarif told reporters that he had quote no information about losing a drone about a quarter of the worlds crude oil is shipped through the hormone strait lets speak to. The middle east analyst based in germany and he joins us from a good morning good to see you thank you for joining us what do we know about what actually happened here or do we only have Donald Trumps account. So far it seems yes we heard the foreign minister i was only speaking yesterday denying this and this morning that if you do foreign minister she is also tweeted that there is that iran hasnt lost any drone and he was basically also mocking the u. S. President placing the navy the u. S. Has down to 200. 00 so so far its basically the u. S. Claiming the iranian didnt know and yet were seeing another escalation between the u. S. And iran how serious is this. I think the situation is extremely dangerous we see both sides trying to get the other to a point where. The face saving exit is needed the u. S. Is that up to its necks in the pressure strategy iran its maximum resistance strategy both are trying to raise the cost for the other side and its its dangerous to see where this will lead us so youre saying this is a dangerous situation but at the same time we saw the Iranian Foreign minister in new york propose new talks some possible concessions so where are things had it i think this is part of the pattern that we see on both sides so we see upping the pressure on different in different forms but at the same time providing some if you want to say avenues for backdoor talks or some sort of an agreement and as i said the face saving aspect of diplomacy might play a role here so that either side presents the other with such an exit the u. S. Has said we just dont want to see the iranians becoming a Nuclear Power this is something that the iranians dont have a problem with and i think this is also a very has not proposed something that would further make the deal for the robust so lets see where this will go but at the same time we have to be worried because these these measures that are meant to scare off the other side im afraid will continue i dont at this point what would it take to get both sides back to the table and to stop this ask a lighting attention. At the moment it seems that the iranians want to see the u. S. Position which is the one that was existant during the obama years so no u. S. Sanctions that have to do with Irans Nuclear program other sanctions and remain for the u. S. Side it seems that there are divisions between the president and his foreign secretary and his National Security adviser so the u. S. Position might be a bit ambiguous here but for the trump it seems as long as it would be his deal there might actually be a deal so lets see where this will lead us but i think the International Community show should ask both sides to really come to their senses at this point our middle east analyst adnan tabata by thank you so much for your analysis after now some other stories making headlines around the world in afghanistan at least 6 people have been killed after a bomb exploded near a couple University Authorities said the bomb had been placed under a vehicle no group has yet claimed responsibility but the Afghan Capital is often targeted by both the taliban and the Islamic State terrorist militia. A Moroccan Court has sentenced 3 men to death for the murder of 2 scandinavian women in december of last year louisa just person and marnie were killed in their tent at a popular hiking destination the court also jailed 20 other defendants with links to the killers. Japanese media is reporting that tokyo plans to summon south koreas ambassador on friday as a conflict over world war 2 era compensation deepens japans foreign minister taro kono wants seoul to rectify a court ruling that ordered to Japanese Companies to pay koreans for their forced labor under japanese occupation. European union interior ministers have failed to find an agreement on how to deal with Asylum Seekers rescued in the Mediterranean Sea as the ministers held talks in finland the german captain of a migrant rescue ship at the eye of a political storm appeared before an italian court. About the arriving at the courthouse on sicily counted wreck a tour was moped by reporters 31 year old german c. Captain hes being investigated on suspicion of aiding illegal immigration last month she piloted to see what rescue ship into the italian ports of lampedusa with 41 migrants on board. I sincerely hope that the European Commission now after the new election of the parliament will do that very best to prevent situations like that happening and that all the European Countries will Work Together in the future. Except any people which the civilian fleet has rescued. Its the least hard line interior minister mattel use salvini wants to stop rescue ships like sea watch bringing my consist shaw as the summits of europes interior ministers got underway in helsinki there were bold words. The situation is critical we cannot let anyone drone at the Mediterranean Sea anymore we have to find solutions that are more robust arrangements that are not ad hoc as they are right now to the situation needs our attention all the time and we should act there together but the summit ended in failure france and germany pushed a socalled solidarity mechanism for distributing rescued migrants italy and malta rejected the plan salvini opposed rates and the remaining one of the main landing points for migrants. It means that everyone arrives in italy or in malta and i will never sign a document which says that everyone has to arrive in my country because we cannot rely on them being relocated you know for those that may look. And so for now how europe should deal with people sailing from north africa in search of a better life remains unresolved. Youre watching news delta come on our show algeria and senegal have the chance to claim african footballs biggest prize in cairo tonight check in with both sides before the game. But 1st to cape town in south africa where the military has started patrolling the streets and parts of the city its part of a government plan to quell escalating Gang Violence the soldiers have been called in to bring order to a district called cape flats where almost a 1000 people have been murdered our correspondent under increased reports from the city. I 1. Was thinking and marching for peace right in the cape town talent ship of man and when the local in charge. Have to carry adams these daily demonstrations have become a disappointing ritual hes lived here for almost 50 years and says the level of violence nowadays has never been so bad father to 5 children adams worries about their future none of us feel safe in this is in this environment now School Children caught in ghost. Feeling that olds use a lot of innocent people it says to thats been dying men and. The residents here have been organizing these protests on a daily basis for so months now but nothing much has happened since then. Adams shows us around his township manenberg has been considered a troubled area for many years but in recent months violence has escalated with several gangs involved in the brutal battle over drugs and power this is Still Limited considered to be in the its a. So its pretty straight they divided the terrorists yeah. Both gangs reached a truce but it didnt last long just a few days ago shootouts took place and a man was killed. The protesters express their solidarity with the victims mother by marching to her house. She said marching and we had. Beach now we have to march again. To try and get peace again he will continue with what hes doing to try to make manama could be to police. The military is now patrolling the cape flats area of which men and brokers a part. Theyre supporting the police for 3 months to bring the violence under control residents demanded for more security but adams doesnt believe that will solve the problem theres a lot of fun in bringing men in and unemployment causes crime. So we need to look at programs to get people really doing this here he is. Having the army is not going to solve the problem. When our men are explicitly giving gifts they say they will continue until the streets are free but. 6 chris reporting there and he joins us now from cape town for more on this story hi adrienne what is fueling this violence is the drugs alone and why are we seeing this surge now i mean definitely drugs are playing a major part but it is not struck so alone its several factors that were seeing here and theres different gangs he also is not only one or 2 its dozens of them they all have different targets some are on the drug business others are doing other things some are just to controlling their terror and so its really a very difficult problem with a very different level so that needs to be addressed obviously because it has gotten a voice in wars over the past years and youve set the numbers more than 100 people were killed this year alone at this weekend the past week and more than 40 people were murdered in the cape flats though it is a massive problem that obviously needs to be addressed. Now the military is being brought in what will the presence of the army there actually change what can they achieve that the police havent been able to. So when we talk to people here we hear different different stories but many of them have been criticizing the police saying they were not effective enough over the past 2 years and the numbers are actually confirming that im at a Police Station at the moment you know weve talked to policemen theyre all very active i mean theyre risking their lives trying to improve the situation here but also residents tell us some are corrupt some on the very effective and the numbers of the police are just simply too low and this is a political problem clearly theres not enough policemen that are sense to the cape flats to address the issues and they havent been enough here for the past years so it seems the last resort that the Government Resources now is to send the military and people some people have high hopes at least that it will stabilize the situation for now gathering tell us more about how residents have reacted to the military now coming. Quite mixed reactions so you have a lot of people we talked to a happy finally theyre coming theyve been asking for that for a long time to get the situation back to normal but also we talked to some like the gentleman youve seen earlier in the reports who are well not so convinced that this will change the situation on the long term because this the problems are structural theyve been here for a long time and they cant really be solved by the police or the military they have to be addressed in the long term by the political space equally the unemployment in Southern Africa of young people more than every 2nd young person is unemployed this is a major problem and this is driving young people into the hands of gangs they dont have a perspective and the perspective has to be created for those people. To correspondent i do increase reporting for us from cape town thank you aaron. All right football now africa is getting ready to crown its champion in tonights africa cup of nations final in cairo we have press harrington from the sports with us to talk about the buildup so yes do we have 2 good finalists your worthy finalists or was this a surprise no one called it a surprise you know well 1st off the africa cup of nations is a very wide open tournament a lot of teams that participate have won the tournament in the past but when you look at algeria in senegal you look at their fee for ranking you know head and shoulders of you know the majority of the african nations they competed you know i did pick them to go far in the tournament its interesting because senegal has actually the highest fee for a game have never won it all this is their opportunity obviously led by savio monday who plays for liverpool hes a star in the premier league and of course the algerian side the desert fox is led by man citys riyad maher is also a very strong side i think its a toss up you know actually it who can walk away with it all but we do have a report to highlight oh and let me mention algeria did win it in 1993 decades before you know their last prize but lets take a look at their report now. Algeria fans have filled chartered planes to see their side in action in egypt and they are convinced they all claim a 2nd title after the triumph of 990. 00 some even believe its fate. I can do to support our geo of course weve been waiting 29 years for this im 28 years old its the perfect time so im going to represent everyone. It was a late winner from superstar that fired algeria into the final after the final whistle on sunday morez was full of the supporters optimism. We had. Nothing but this game. To play the final. We have. To win it but theyre confident to be jubilant senegalese supporters back home who watched their side triumph over tunisia in the semi its only the 2nd time ever that theyve reached a final its total joy its National Pride were all happy weve been waiting for this since 2002 sorry your money and co have ended a long senegalese wait for a 2nd shot at the title and theyre delighted to have come so far sure were proud because its been 17 years since we last reached this stage since the generation of 2002. And its thanks to her severe ince and hard work. Probably the hardest part is still to come and only one set of supporters will be celebrating come friday night. Expectations flying high in both countries looking at all that we just look at who is the favorite you know head to head out of syria you know would be considered the favorite but simple fact that senegals never won it you know saadi oh my ne this season is obviously prime right now i think its their time to shot and you know you consider fans that they have never been able to enjoy the satisfaction of winning the africa cup of nations it just makes sense that you know i think even though we heard from the one fed that thinks its fate because you know she was one years old the last time i was very one i dont think that will be enough i picked originally this in a goal but would walk away with their 1st after contact and i stand by that opinion will there be a lot of really happy fans then send it off at ok whats the mood been like in the host country in egypt you know its a very good question now before the turn of it kicked off there was a lot of you know positivity in the air because you know it was a late replacement that egypt would actually host the con cameroon have the responsibility before in egypt the granddaddies of the tournament they had the best turnout fan support stadium 70000 supporters you know watching them play you know i thought it was positive because most sallah he was injured during the world cup he was making a return to the National Side things looked good until they got kicked out by south africa and then thats when you saw you know obviously the overall mood changed because a lot of fans couldnt afford to travel you know a lot of governments have chartered other you know planes to bring in support because the stadiums have just quite empty and in regards to egypt just you know from that National Team perspective its all in shambles right now they have. A step down the president of the football you know federation he resigned as long all with his cabinet as well so they basically hit the reset button you know so in that perspective its been very negative. You know as we saw the fans of this is not fans from you know enjoying the moment despite where they are i do think that it will be interesting to see the final number in terms of what the final brings out you know hopefully the stadium will be somewhat filled in the enthusiasm will be there because i think any country that wins obviously the smile be lasting for quite a long now lets talk about african football in general ever since the 1967 nigeria team win gold at the olympics theres theres been a lot expected of african football hasnt necessarily delivered why is that you know how much time do we have gus you know theres i could just mention a few factors you know corruption has been thrown in there you can look at it for structure you can look at the colonial past you know that tends to pluck you know the most talented you know of sorts you can take in a deans or don for example you know he opted to play for france instead of algeria i think that has a lot to do with the infrastructure thats in place you know obviously you want to have the tools around you to develop the talent you know when you look at the african countries you know nigeria was a team that won gold you know theyre a team that typically the players learn all of the technical side of the sport abroad you know and bring back things to help out the National Side i spent time in nigeria and i can tell you firsthand the infrastructure needs a lot of work you see a lot of dirt pitches a lot of underfunding and i dont want to go into details but you know a few of the Young Players in the academies did speak about corruption and it does exist you know so i think all of those factors play a part why african countries cannot get over that hump and really become a consistent will power you know our also interviewed just you know add in with this i interviewed you know a legend so nice a name to basically he spoke on that exact idea talking about the mentality that needs to change with african football infrastructure more money all of these things combine well start seeing world powers and african football all right Chris Harrington from sports breaking things down for us thank you chris ok. Its more sports news now american j. B. Holmes is leading after the 1st round of golf soap and championship at port rush in Northern Ireland home scored a 5 under par a local hero and pretournament favorite worry mcelroy had a nightmarish start his 8 over par leaves him struggling even to make the cut in the 1st open on Northern Irish soil in 68 years british riders simon yates won the 1st stage of the Tour De France in the pyrenees on thursday after a long breakaway french julia ioffe a leap keeps the overall lead one minute and 12 seconds ahead of defending champion go rain to thomas and 4 time Tour De France champion chris froome is missing at the store because he was injured in a crash last month but he still has reason to celebrate today the International Cycling union awarded from the 2011 with a title after the winner at the time jose cobol was disqualified for doping and did not appeal the decision from what you see here on the right was runner up 80 years ago in the tour of spain right. Now this week marks the 50th anniversary of the apollo 11 mission that put men on the moon for the 1st time but in the decade since the Apollo Missions the moon is fallen out of fashion astronauts and scientists are turning their focus to other goals in space now though there is renewed interest and a new race to the moon is underway you met a german astronaut whos hard at Work Training for what could be the next lunar landing. This dusty landscape is not the moon but volcanic ground on the Spanish Island of land serota muchas mara and french astronaut trainer every step along are gearing up for the next moon landing theyre testing equipment and gathering igneous rock which is similar to that found on the moon if marty is mara does make it to the moon hell need to be able to identify everything he sees doesnt thats a little mineral that comes from deep underground from close to the earths mantle geologists are really keen on making a discovery like this on the moon. Because samples like this could tell you a lot about the moons composition. The. Mahler is one of 7 astronauts preparing for what may be the next manned flight to the moon liftoff could be in 2024. They station from our is the Astronaut Training Center at the European Space agency in cologne. Theres a new race to the moon not between the soviet union and the u. S. Like 50 years ago this is much more of an economic race its about being the 1st to fly to the moon the 1st to achieve dominance in space. China is investing heavily in Space Technology so much he has mauer is learning mandarin as well as russian he wants to work with chinese astronauts and eventually fly to their planned space station. The Chinese Space capsule will have a weight limit for astronauts 75 kilos so fitness is a key part of training. This is a typical exercise that prepares you for space in a space suit is so tight that you can practically only use your arms theres a risk of injuring your shoulder muscles. Next stop berlin has come to this planetarium to persuade politicians and Business Leaders to support the moon mission. Please complete the sentence im glad that people are going back to the moon because thats because itll be an amazing adventure and not only for astronauts with the right technology we can bring everyone along using virtual 3 d. Technology people can just put on a headset and join us when we explore the moon. In november the European Space agency will decide whether to pump money into the race until then mightiest mauer can only dream of being the next human to set foot on the moon.
