On the bomb this league is Opening Weekend rb leipzig tarnished you and your own berlins top flight to view with a crushing 4 nil victory. Im brian thomas thanks so much for joining us the ngo operating a rescue vessel in the mediterranean has described the situation for the 100 people on board as a humanitarian emergency now the spanish flag vessel open arms is currently anchored off the attalia an island of lampedusa authorities have refused permission to dock there although they did accept 27 children and women over the weekend now spain offered to take the migrants at the port of august yes but the charity that owns open arms has rejected that offer why it says the journey of several days is quote unrealistic for it to get from lampedusa to us. Well. Spain has now said that the vessel can dock at which every port is most accessible in spain some migrants have been so desperate to get to dry land that theyve tried to swim to shore. With good. Dried some on the horizon safety on the italian island of lampedusa behind them chaos aboard a charity vessel the migrants struggle through the water. Unli to be brought back to the visibly overcrowded open arms and this is what they were turning to. The state of new mutiny aboard the ship the charities direct to sounding an s. O. S. About what might happen if they arent allowed to dock in need by italy of the future were all here weve spent days waiting theyve been people in the water fights violence crises older time what more do you want deaths in my hood of. The magnificent of the. Dice open arms has been more several 100 meters off lampedusa. These people are at the center of the judicial and political battle immediately the countrys interior minister wants them to go elsewhere. You know to shit tough guy wins in the end so im pleased to report that the migrants aboard the open arms have had the good news that the Spanish Government will open its ports to them the most fun euro low for the. Dozens of young and frail paypal of board of finance have already been allowed to shore neatly this weekend. But south bay me out to take the obvious would send a wrong signal caught on film but. Its a maritime standoff thats lasted for weeks now. At risk the safety of a 100 people aboard the spanish best so. While the German Government meanwhile is calling on the youth to restart Naval Missions for rescue operations in the mediterranean for more on this im joined by hans froth from the political desk good morning what is the German Government want to see to prevent these types of all to regular crisis situations the German Government basically is pushing for an e. U. Mission again to pick up people in the mediterranean who are in need we must remember there was a. European mission until you have the cia until spring this year the mission called sophia which basically was canceled because of the Italian Government refused to participate in. Any food after this current Italian Government came into power and knowledge the German Government is pushing for a renewed e. U. Mission but i think what theyre hoping for is. A number of states to participate possibly not the entire ok if italy continues to refuse to participate which nations can pick up the slack can it even work without telling forces and forts well the german the German Foreign minister has been saying that theres a more than a dozen states that are possibly interested in participating that have expressed their willingness but of course we have to remember there are a number of states that are adamant that they will not participate it today has been one of the until recently we dont know whats going to happen in it to do since the government there is likely to fall apart very soon but what the germans are doing at the moment i think also because a german woman is going to be the new Commission President or as a law from the lion she is trying to renu the inside and system in the e. U. And in that context i think i was hoping that there will be a kind of coalition of the willing of maybe a dozen or more european states who will participate in this and will then also take up the migrants thats a crucial issue for the obviously and for countries like spain that dont want the migrants all to end up in their countries ok lets let me pick up on that what happens and who decides. To resettle migrants once they make landfall once theyre allowed into port whats the process for them right now right at this moment was ships like the one were seeing here are its a very at talk process theres a cold odd which countries prepared to take some of these may have more than 100 migrants and theres another my friendship currently waiting for more than 300 to be taken. Then a few countries in disguises maybe 5 or 6 france germany romania luxembourg countries such as these who say we will take side take up a number of these and they will then be taken to that country and go into the normal asylum procedures in those individual does it is that your post was brought thanks very much for bringing us up to date on this. Now for a look at some of the other stories making the news at this hour a Malaysian Court has postponed the trial of the countrys former Prime Minister on fraud charges. Hes accused of involvement in the looting of a state Investment Fund he faces 5 trials in total after losing elections last year he accuses the successor of seeking political revenge. U. S. President don trump says he doesnt want to do business with the chinese telecoms giant all way even as washington considers allowing that company to buy supplies from American Companies the decisions expected to be announced later today always considered a threat to the security of u. S. Communications. Wildfires on the Spanish Island of growing canaria for some 4000 people to be evacuated from their homes Officials Say a number of communities are threatened in an area hit by fire last week they say tackling new blazes is being complicated by a combination of high temperatures strong winds and low humidity. Now the Iranian Oil Tankers seized off the british territory of draw balta is at sea once again after a court there released it the grease one was being held on suspicion of Smuggling Oil to syria contravening e. U. Sanctions it has been renamed eatery in dar you wanted is now under an iranian flag its expected that tehran will now release a british tanker that it seized in retaliation theres more. July 4th moments that further inflamed the wests tensions with iran British Royal marines enter brought her officials sees a tanker carrying iranian oil accusing it of plans to deliver its cargo to syria they halted the ship off the coast of gibraltar a british territory located on spains southern tip 2 weeks later iran responded in kind it also seized a ship a british tanker sailing just south of iran in the strait of hormuz. Iran published this video of troops repelling down to capture it tehran alleged the british vessel violated maritime rules. Then deadlock both ships stayed where they were until gibraltar announced last week it would release the iranian tanker gibraltar said it had been assured the tanker full of iranian oil would not go on to syria but that wasnt enough for washington the u. S. Submitted its own request to seize the vessel over sanctions violations gibraltars government denied that petition on sunday writing the e. U. Sanctions regime against iran which is a political in gibraltar is much now or were than that a political in the u. S. Irans vessel has now set sail once more raising hopes of a deescalation in the dispute with tehran. Lets get some analysis now with used research proper shes just returned from iraq and from the strait of hormuz good morning teresa do we know 1st off if we have any idea where this newly named arabian flag tanker is headed well thats the 1000000. 00 question here i mean iran has never disclosed the original destination of the tanker but always saying it was not headed for syria and now marine tracking apparently shows that its heading toward the east of the mediterranean maybe towards greece listing the potential for this final destination. But its absolutely unclear what will happen to the tanker like even if it goes to come on time because greece was one of the countries that was still allowed to buy iranian oil even under u. S. Sanctions until recently but thats no longer the case so any country that will buy the cargo the ship has might be subject to u. S. Sanctions and its still unclear whether the ship will reach this final destination because iran is not just warned the u. S. Against seizing the oil tank in the open seas that enters just coming becoming close a few moments ago where theyre still not sure whether the tanker will be allowed to go away at once to ok you know you were in the strait of hormuz you were talking to people there you are out on the waters as were looking at the vessels underway there around the u. S. And britain have all been seizing tankers whats the strategy at play in intent or seizure well at least this seizure of the british flag tenko was an act of a tele ation thats for sure the iranians said the official reason was a violation against International Law but Everybody Knows its been an act of retaliation and thats the reason that resonates very well with iranian public because they feel that the detainment off their vessel in gibraltar was unjustly done so and this is also the sanctions against their country of a hostile act and ive been talking to people and they said we dont want any conflict with any other countries but if they treat us that way were willing to defend. Our country against that so whatever the initial strategy was behind him and of the tango it has somewhat backfired because the tensions with iran and in the region have only become worse and ok so the seizure of the iranian tegra got the people to back the regime in tehran. With the iranian tanker now released from job roll to does that mean that tehrans going to free the british flag vessel that its older yeah well thats very likely to happen yes i mean i was in. Just a couple of days ago thats where they took the bridge flecked tanker from the open sea where it was detained so now its in the port there and remote controlling everything there so i was told i couldnt go that far no and specifically as a journalist not in danger of proceedings so theyve been preparing for some sort of an exchange so far but as i said the trust in the u. S. And the United Kingdom as well is not very high so i suppose theyre waiting until their own tanker has reached a safe destination until they set the british tanker free ok to secure the flow of oil and to protect the freedom of shipping it in the gulf region britain said to join the u. S. Task force now in the gulf germany has turned down the call from washington to trumpet ministration of course not after about that whats germanys justification for its refusal to protect its oil as well that comes through the gulf well germany Still Believes that negotiations are the best way to deal with iran thats why theyve been advocating to save the nuclear deal they signed with the run back in 2015 the one us president pulled out of a year ago and apparently they also know that tehran will see any type of Naval Mission in the gulf as a hostile act specifically if it comes from countries that the iranians consider enemy states like the u. S. Like the u. K. And also israel so thats why germany is not taking part of that and people they also see it the same way they dont want any extra Regional Forces in the backyard so any. Sort of mission willing to complicate things even further and germanys still looking for a political solution ok and iran has just underscored with the news from the Foreign Ministry that it will not tolerate america seizing any vessels that news coming through this morning teresa thanks very much. Now the people of hong kong have once again filled the streets on the 11th straight weekend of mass prodemocracy protests organizers saying 1700000. 00 people thats nearly one quarter of hong kongs total population turned out the spite of heavy rainfall too though to show their support for local rule this weekends demonstrations were also about though what did not happen little violence no rubber bullets no tear gas. Was. Not down the still furious. On the other side of the barriers Police Protesters pick them out which is now iconic places but today its been peaceful with even time for this. But its still deadly serious protest organizers on sunday focused on Police Violence over the last couple of months. The police the today issued a statement about. Targeting them in the theme of power soundly that is totally truly a exactly targeting at the police because the police have shown to the world that they have appeals that power breaking down over a boat. They started in Victoria Park they got permission for this but the park was too small to contain them all. So they disregarded the rain the heat and the rules and they started to move it turned into a march to chill for a cheesehead not sanctioned the numbers that completely dominate the city. Like i said they prepared for tear gas the police seemed absent and there was no violence a victory for open eyes as they really are trying to counter this narrative that sprung up over the last few weeks that some of these protesters are extremely violent that something that both didnt have with my scenes that we saw at the apple. Earlier this week which withdrawn by Chinese State media is proof that these protesters were violent and not their peaceful Peaceful Demonstrations like the ones weve seen today and into the night protestors to their frustration in light on the police headquarters. This is news live from berlin still to come on the show the people of iceland say farewell to a glacier thats nations 1st to the fishing disappear we look at the future of the countrys glaciers and as our globe warms up. But 1st today is the United Nations annual World Humanitarian Day when tributes paid to aid workers who risk their lives in humanitarian service in syria the White Helmets are one such group they are based in the city of or 7 of its volunteers recently died as Syrian Government forces vance on that city is the final stronghold of rebels opposed to damascus. And racing to save lives rescue of mohammad tom a receives details of the incident over his radio a russian warplane has dropped bombs on an apartment block in moderate. A town in syrias province right now every moment counts. They arrive at the scene to look for survivors buried in the rubble who cant get out without their help you have the owners of the. This time at least it seems no one is being hurt or needs the white home its assistance. We help injured civilians Children Women and old people. Our work is really important theres no other organization on the scene thats saving i have seen how the film was up when it was shown the. Mohammad joined the white house once in 2013 hes one of 100. 80 volunteers based here at this emergency center. Of rescued thousands of people from the rubble thats what inspires muhammad to keep going. Still not every mission is a success and the memories of what hes seen still haunt him i. Woke up that what the no and the worst was when i pulled 2 brothers from underneath a concrete ceiling they both been sleeping in the same bed and one of them was already dead you know we saved the other one that made me cry not by. The White Helmets have been working around the clock since the government launched its live offensive. Syrian and allied russian fighter jets have been bombing targets here in the last rebel held controlled region in the country the government says its only targeting militias loyal to al qaeda but in reality theyve also been hitting apartments hospitals markets and schools. The White Helmets document the reality of this war from the ground assets sees them as terrorists and thats why they themselves have become a target without anything again and again as we were rushing to save peoples lives russian jets launched a 2nd wave of bombings hitting the rescuers many of our people have been killed or injured in that way thought and how its all that the. 9 White Helmets have died in the past 3 months alone the group says. A good friend of mohameds was one of them. But i couldnt deal with what happened for a whole week i couldnt talk to anyone and couldnt understand what had happened i was with him when he was hit we wanted to save civilians that. Mohammad has also been injured in the field several times. Bunch he says in the end all that pain has just made him stronger. Now what youre looking at behind me is all thats left of what was once a mass of glaciers that has simply melted away its icelands 1st glacier loss to Global Warming now over the weekend the country marked its disappearance installing a memorial to the former glacier close to the capital reykjavik satellite images taken as recently as 1986 so large amounts of snow and ice around the auk ok you know today theres almost nothing left. The glaciers of iceland are spectacular sight from the air for years regular actual sun has been photographing them. Among them this one called ark the countrys 1st glacier to officially vanish. It lost its glacier status in 2014 and now a plaque remembers it with a letter to the future. Most schoolchildren who know the glaciers 9 to vanish or fix people in iceland both psychologically and emotionally a glycine many of known since childhood has ceased to exist. At a ceremony on sunday activists politicians and citizens bade farewell to all but other clay shares are likely to follow like europes largest fuck new yorker that iceland is losing more than 10000000. 00 tonnes of glacier ice per year. And researchers agree the reason is climate change. Never nice ones history have glaciers melt it as quickly as now everything points to the fact that this will continue in the future we have to suppose that in 200 years almost vanished. Axelson flew over the glaciers again a few days ago capturing images of a landscape that may soon be gone for ever. Ok time for the bun this league is Opening Weekend that had drama tears some great goals as well lima talk to hear from did a few sports to talk about that morning lima lets start with on your own bill and they got a real reality check against lifes a good day yes they did and people need to understand that this was on your own berlins trust match in the bundesliga and it happened to be against like say these 2 teams couldnt be any different so we knew you know once they meet theres going to be a lot of controversy and thats exactly what we got because the only one alter fans decided to organize a stimulus boycott an atmosphere boycott so within the 1st 15 minutes of the match they basically West Highland which sucks because you know on your own the stadium is known for having a really great atmosphere and the reason behind it of course is that life is the a to such as a what football should be that they bought this success but on the pitch of course brian that didnt make any difference because like went on to win 4 nil and we have highlights of that controversial match that lets take a look. Then fans have been waiting for this moment for decades and the emotion showed finally in the big time those who didnt live to see the day were also there in spirit. Of the 1st of july is a very Different Ground to what ill be like to get used to in the bunkers lega but the negative reception for the club backed by an energy drink was very familiar. The. Players were looking to hit the ground running and show the togetherness which helped win them promotion. The game had a muted start on 15 minutes of supporters brought into life just as they did like 6 marcel house to have struck. Here now guzmans 1st one is a good goal celebration is like saying boss who knew him gave the fullback far too much room but it was still a fine finish. A crack of a muscle some its a double the lead on 31 minutes if you knew and didnt know how tough the blunders they get would be they knew now oh you dont coach fisher bravely put these glasses back on but it soon got worse to move than a burst through to make it 3 no just before half time. To serve and cuckoo grafter for after the break. You knew my heart broken at the end it will be a tough season for the promoted berliners but the coach clubs supporters will keep on singing. Well 1st game to completely forget for one yellow nber leno for about sundays other venice league games so i talked funk for it as well with the perfect start when they face tough and high and thats because after 36 seconds change the martin king tut egos squad and hoffenheim as you just saw a complete defensive breakdown now hoffenheim did manage to have more off the ball after that but they just didnt know what to do with it and it scored 2 goals and both of them were ruled off site so once again at great start for frank 1st because people have to remember that they lost 2 of their best players in new york which went to reallocate ends of a spin on the off ok what what really caught your attention in the book this league is this weekend so for once of course lets take a look at the results daughter. With you know sending a strong message a strong signal to rivals by and nick with that 51 hammering of what they have a coups and of course they make it so easy for themselves but they too manage to edge out deputy patta want to grab 3 points but the biggest talking point on match they want to have to be hat hurt to have been in holding defending champions by an ache to a 22. 00 draw on friday what a surprise does byron though have something up their sleeve whats ahead and depends how you look at it you know its a cost half full half empty because they did bring in 4. 00 would continue on no one namely because hes supposed to add creativity to the midfield but its at the same time this is a very desperate move because you know whether its bringing him in on known or even paris to chum into milan you know we all know that by and munich want us to ne didnt get their man and this is very uncharacteristic of a trance from those of us thanks so much for bring us up to date from the sports this this is the debate is live from berlin after the break its our science show tomorrow today with more from our series on alexander from home both expeditions of the americas dont forget theres always a web site as well you know you dot com im brian thomas for all of us actually.
