Jubilation as the Space Program and a speeding,. This is deep and Scientific Understanding and captured the publics imagination. Im sarah harmon, welcome to the program. Friday sought a roller coaster ride for Deutsche Bank. Share prices on the frank for Stock Exchange after the bank reportedly reached an agreement to settle legal penalties in the u. S. And it looks like they will be paying significantly less than what is expected. The news agency afp says deutsche and the u. S. Government will settle on a 5. 5 billion payout. It might sound like a lot but the americans were originally demanding 14 billion for the german lenders role in the 2008 financial crisis. A big sigh of relief for the bank. The German Government. And perha people in general. For more, i will bring in our colleague from our business desk. Good to have you here breaking down the story. Give us context. How bad is this . The next Lehman Brothers or are they out of the woods . I dont think it is. Despite what they are facing, the bank has much more liquidity. Have 200 billion euros and they are not on the verge of going bankrupt. Having said that, we are seeing an enormous decrease in trust. That is a pity when you are a publicly traded company. You have to present strong numbers in order for people to trust them with your money. If thats not right, People Lose Trust and your share price goes down. This is the matter that Deutsche Bank is facing at the moment. A penalty forced to pay . We see a similar picture. There is less trading, less speculation on markets going on. But we see the low Interest Rates having an impact on the core business. So we have high costs. It these are the underlying problems, but of course, having been faced with a final 14 billion in the u. S. , it was a major problem and even though this is been reduced, it is also posing a big challenge. Sarah you will have more from new york later in the program. Thank you for being with me. Russia has rejected a claim made by a Syrian Monitoring Group that says airstrikes in the country have killed nearly 10,000 people including hundreds of people. The strikes are provoking a bloodbath among civilians one year after it began. Military intervention is popular , the effort to prop up the government. Bashir alassad is seen as short of strength. Reporter a year of russian airstrikes has turned parts of syria into hell on earth. But it has enabled troops loyal to bashir alassad to make gains against rebel forces like here in eastern aleppo. Weve killed hundreds in the last couple of weeks since starting a push to take the countrys biggest city. Food and water are in scarce supply. They are on the verge of collapse. Up until the last few days, there have been eight hospitals functioning in aleppo. None of them fully functioning due to earlier attacks. A couple of days ago, you may be aware that the two largest hospitals were deliberately targeted and are now nonfunctional. Seeing the capacity of Health Workers in the city to provide lifesaving medical care for many innocent children, women, and other innocent civilians. Reporter the russian governmt says they are preventing terrorists from taking over the country. We have not achieved in the region or even more so outside of the region. And now, when the decisive backdoor for aleppo is being developed into a rather bloodbath, russia and some muslim countries are going to be seriously strained. This air Campaign Continues and those on the ground have no escape. Sarah for more, im joined by a political analyst at lancaster university. Good to see you. The russians have been involved in syria for a year now. What effect is that having on the ground . From the pictures you have pshown, we can see the effect it has had on the ground. Huge destruction across syria, cities destroyed, communities destroyed. Ultimately, what we are seeing is that it has been propped up by russia. Just when it seemed like the assad regime is going to be toppled, russia has come in and really held it up. It really supported it, offering security. It has had a massive impact on the number of deaths and the widespread destruction of the syrian state. Sarah why did russia decide to get involved in the first place . A number of Different Reasons at play. There is a geopolitical game that russia is playing with the u. S. Moscow is quite keen to demonstrate you cant get these issues resolved. I guess a demonstration of russian might. Russia has control of a naval base in syria, which is a really quite strategically important naval base for russia. I think that is the second dimension. There are a couple of strng and important points this year. Sarah it has been the role of the syrian president bashir alassad. How closely is the leadership allied . Could they dropped him at some point if it was no longer advantageous . I think its a really important question. If we look at what bashir alassad is doing, his ideology, there doesnt appear to be all that much similarity between him and moscow. If you look at what the Russian Press has been saying, there are rumors that moscow was getting ready to drop a sod assad when he was no longer listening to moscow and not being all that useful. What we see is that moscow has realized that the sheer alassad is useful as long as it tells us a great deal of about how long russia will continue to support him. And lets not forget, its the regime that is responsible for around 90 of the deaths in syria. It is estimated 400,000 people have died in this conflict. The regime is responsible for 99 of those. There will be more deaths, more destruction, and the people of syria are going to pay the heaviest price. Sarah u. S. President barack obama and former bill clinton delivered eulogies. It left for the last time. Its the end of an era for israel. Paris was the last of the founding generation. His final resting place, Hallowed Ground reserved for the great and good of israel. Dignitaries included present and past heads of state from around the world. The german president and foreign minister were also there. Undermining the special relationship between germany and israel. It had a particular significant. He soared to incredible heights. He was a great man of israel. He was a great man of the world. It was this undying hope for peace that paris was, at times, mocked for. His critics often claimed he was naive, overly optimistic, a dreamer. They were only wrong about the naive part. He knew exactly what he was doing being overly optimistic. He knew exactly what he was doing with his dreams. Reporter in the end, he dreamed of lasting peace. President obama he decided it was better to live with a longing not for the past but for the dreams that have not yet come true. And now this work is in the hand of israels next generation. Reporter paris would not live to see the piece he wanted and it could only be hoped that his very ideal will not be buried with him. Sarah to the u. S. President ial race and a Twitter Exchange between donald trump and Hillary Clinton is raising eyebrows. In an Early Morning rant, trump attacked a former miss universe, calling her disgusting. He came under fire over his treatment of Alicia Machado during this weeks president ial debate. This controversy has gone to a whole other level. Trump said that clinton gave her u. S. Citizenship so she could use her in the debate. He said using her in the debate as a paragon of virtue just shows that crooked hillary suffers from bad judgment. Clinton hit back saying that trump comments were unhinged, even for trump. What kind of man stays up all night to smear a woman with lies and conspiracy theories . He has faced criticism for his treatment of women. Something clinton might be able to capitalize on. Here is what clinton had to say about the president ial debate. Secretary clinton one of the worst thing he said was about a woman in a beauty contest. He loves supporting them and hanging around them. And he called this woman miss piggy. Then he called her miss housekeeping. She has a name. Alicia machado. She has become a u. S. Citizen and you can bet she is going to vote this november. Sarah five weeks to go in you can bet we will be tracking the outcome and every development for you. We will take a short break for you. Rosetta over and out, bidding farewell to a Pioneering Space probe. I doubt everything you need to know after the break. Dont go away. Sarah welcome back to dw news. Harris has been laid to rest in jerusalem. The statesman died earlier this week at the age of 93. He was the last of israels Founding Fathers and was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to achieve peace in the region. I will hand you back over now for more from the business desk. Our top story at Deutsche Bank. There are reports a big u. S. Government penalty has been massively reduced according to the news agency afp. They will only have to pay 5. 4 billion to settle litigation regarding this selling misselling mortgage securities. Originally, authorities wanted 14 billion. The news sent shares soaring. Reporter it was a roller coaster ride for the share price on the frankfurt Stock Exchange. Shortly after opening it drop significantly. The Share Price Fell below 10 euros. Analysts spoke of a selloff. It became news, ending 6 over the previous days close. Germanys biggest lender had put aside 5 billion euros for litigation costs, but only half of that was intended for the American Mortgage scandal. That means the bank has to come up with 2. 5 billion euros. They are far from being sold. That is because it is questionable if they can raise the money on its own. It is similar to the downfall of Lehman Brothers. Similar consequences are seen as unlikely by analysts. This isnt a crisis similar to Lehman Brothers because authorities, regulators, and a bank like this cannot default because it is relevant to the system. It has to solve its problems. The German Government says a taxpayerfunded solution is near. Lets cross over to our markets man in new york. As a, the reports about this settlement with u. S. Authorities are unconfirmed. Still, investors seem to buy it. Reporter it seems so, and what a day for shares. Around 5. 4 billion cheering up investors as banking stocks jumped 50 after falling 7 earlier in the day. Closing the five day Trading Balance on a positive note. And the good news also helped lift up financial stocks in general which gained over 1. 1 . As for now, it seems that without official confirmation, any eventual settlement was certainly be below the 14 million opening by the department of justice. Investors seem to think that this will stop the bleeding which is under the 18 billion mark. Dont forget shares have over 45 so far this year. They said speculation against the bank had tried to undermine trust. Will that stop them now . It should help, but some analysts are still skeptical. Lets not forget the bank only had 4. 5 billion euros to deal with legal matters. So if it has to pay around 5. 4 billion to the department of justice for some legal advisors, it could even be worse than the one related to the subprime mortgages. They will have Deutsche Bank have some cash to deal with these issues. And what do they have to capture . They settle with the department of justice on the subprime payments. They insist it will end up having to raise more capital even though the ceo insisted this will not happen. What is true is that they need to strengthen internal controls going forward. And Deutsche Bank is the riskiest entity for the Global Financial system. Reporting from wall street for us, thank you very much. Not the only german lender, it was the worst performer on european exchanges on friday. The Interest Rates are hitting hard. The chief executive says the Company Needs to free up cash to digitalize services. Dont expect this number to stay the same. Almost 10,000 positions by the year 2020. That is what they had in the press conference earlier today. The Technology Enterprise will employ fewer people. We will therefore not be able to employ as many people as we do today. It is completely unrealistic to achieve the kind of growth we would need to compensate. That is all the Business News for the moment. Sarah ending a 12 your mission by touching down on a speeding comment comet. Scientists at Mission Control show it making its final landing.

Fascinating discoveries from rosetta. The mission is accomplished. What is next for the European Space agency .
