action on the environment granted to birth marchers in hamburg and jewish parents in france fear for their children's future after a surge in hate crimes to speak with israel's ambassador here in germany about controversial calls for european jews to emigrate to israel. i'm sorry kelly welcome to the program pakistan is about to free an indian pilot captured when his plane was shot down over kashmir you're watching live pictures now of waga border crossing between india and pakistan as pakistan prepares to hand over the pilot he's due to be released in an effort to deescalate race and tension . as for going to deb you correspondent michelle who is joining us from new delhi so what more can you tell us about the release of this pilot what's are that's actually very little i can tell you right now because this relieves has been under subpoena for the last three r.'s and yet there is no clear word yet about when exactly this is likely to go through there was even an indian air force briefing expected over two hours ago and yet no word the expectation of course is that among the other than the red one has been brought to the border may even have been handed a while but so far lot of fish shouldn't confirmation from either side but all eyes at the want of order the heavy media presence at the waca border and of course both sides are watching two of them to see how exactly this transfer go through and what does this mean for the tensions between the two countries i mean this seems like a significant deescalation. well some of the tensions that have been rising over the last few weeks this should indicate a deescalation because the draw is in the tensions started back on february fourteenth when a devil strike in my district took the lives of forty indian security forces there was a large cause for action on the indian part and less than two weeks later the indian air force got it out of strike on what it claims was a gesture mama terror camp now the gesture more on what is a terrorist organization that india says dr stand back and this organization actually claimed responsibility for that strike on february fourteenth the lady next to fox also the tally of the fox money air force which led to the capture of think amanda and of four of the saw in violence but it's also worth noting that tensions in cush meet are continuing just today this evening before several before more security personnel losing their lives into internet activity within india madness to meet and they're still fighting going on across along the line of control between the two sides off so why are they could be deescalation in the immediate tensions there is no immediate expectation of peace to prevail between the two countries i know and what is the mood on the ground in the two countries. well the mood on the ground has shifted from the time when the fish meet at attack took place there was a lot of calls for action against pakistan on social media and even on the ground the japanese being brought out in india calling for action against pakistan and and calling for action against fox response once that said allegedly in the question is badly however since this war the escalation of stick with me assumes the aerial combat which of those is approaching awkward for the first time if i pick a deck exactly as that also been called for peace on both sides the hash tag seen with the war began trending on twitter in india and pakistan and there were even more marches and rallies that would get it out in pakistan for the release of the indian file that the resulting file therefore is expected to actually reduce tensions when when it comes to the calls for people that when come to the call for that prime minister of pakistan to run conflicts out india is still hesitant on the knowledge and with smiles as a gesture of peace in the us as the simple facts want to buy when junior come convention and no clear roadmap for for the dialogues as to leave now as well in the message just joining us from new delhi thank you. and with tension between india and pakistan on the rise people are trying to end of the escalations one tweet at a time the hash tag say no to war campaign is united social media users worldwide and as you can see here beside me a reporter aaron tell ten has been following that development so tell us about the streets specifically where the hash tag specifically and how it took off well it was a kashmiri journalist who was the first one to actually use that hash tag and it came out slightly before pakistan announced that it would be free in the indian pilot and i believe we have that original tweet let's take a look at that right now and it was originally tweeted out the greek accused to who writes quote let's trend the hashtags say no to war we don't want any more lives to be snuffed out we want peace war has never solved any problem and it never will and this hash tag has now been picked up by celebrities politicians rights groups and every day users from both countries and has been among the top trends in india and pakistan and of course we've been tracking this hash tag and at its peak we were seen some two thousand tweets every ten minutes and that really goes to show you how saying no to war has really kind of taken off in the region and it's not the only show of solidarity online right oh sure it's really been interesting to kind of observe some of the rhetoric that people have been using to call for peace now a video as we saw briefly in the last hit surface showing the indian air force officer drinking tea and well china and acknowledging that he's been treated well and it's really kind of it is an illustration by the pakistani artist maria khan was also then shared riffing off of the subcontinent collective love for t. and there we see it right now and we also have a photo that's gone viral and is being replicated online by others to like take these two friends one from india and one from pakistan who are seen holding sheets of paper saying i don't hate pakistanis and i don't hate indians and quote he's my best friend now. now how about the more controversial tweets for saying ok so of course this is a rather sensitive topic and we've seen tweets from celebrities that have appeared one sided and they've also drawn a very very strict for quite a stretch a strict response now here we have one of those controversial examples now this is coming from one of india's most popular celebrities priyanka chopra who tweeted quote unquote rather hashtag indian armed forces now j hindi roughly translates to victory for india or long live india and it's also draw in quite an uproar now here one user writes in response to chopra can the un please take back their ambassadorship from chopra celebrities who few wars have no reason to be talking about human rights in any form someone who apparently works for children's rights needs to be schooled about the impact of war on children ash tag say no to war now another user wrote are you really or were you really unicef goodwill ambassador i don't really know how an artist can praise military actions and especially while being an ambassador to the u.n. i don't think this would ever see the world to brothers ever see peace when peace makers love wars so we've been seeing some rather strong reactions from the online community herald aaron tell ten filling us in thank you thank you. social forces in the somali capital mogadishu are battling to drive out al shabaab insurgents holed up next to a hotel that they bombed on thursday night a gun battle has been raging for hours at the site of the blast officials reporting heavy casualties after al shabaab militants carried out a suicide car bombing the target was a downtown hotel popular with government employees. and of east africa correspondent melanie kernot deval is standing by for us melanie where do things stand now. well the somali special forces in mogadishu are still trying to flush out the insurgents at the very moment last night shots of the fire exchanged take really hard all morning as the soldiers try to enter the building and neutralize the belligerent as they have called it we're struggling to get the full picture still there is a lot which is unclear about the explosions that rocked the entire area and could be felt kilometers away as people have said the numbers if they can for example is still not yet confirmed but it's likely to rise but what we do know is that this is the worst attack or one of the worst attacks in a good issue in months and for many this is of course bringing back memories of the country's worst attack in two thousand and seventeen when more than five hundred people died yeah you know the report says the hotel was badly prepared by the way although these kinds of attacks as you highlighted have happened several times before why is that. we don't really know the details about the difficulties in trying to save lives we know that the rescuers struggled as they had no lights and no equipment to take out the wounded but one of the factors that could have contributed to this these ended rescue efforts is the fact that the attack happened that night which is unusual for somalia and both remember was speaking of a country which has been conflict ridden for decades a country where the government only controls more positive territory and where resources simply seem to be missing to respond quickly to these attacks and this is of course something that was about this very well of the well and so it's been a little bit more melanie about the background to this attack. well the attack is very much the patent of us above the souls on high profile targets in east africa in somalia as well as a neighboring kenya or uganda we've seen similar targets chosen places where government security officials frequented as well as foreign as where there have been attacks which also used vehicle bomb which is a very very. bad think that they have been using a lot. some blame the rising numbers of ass try at the moment to buy the u.s. forces against them in the tent group but this is really no news on the trump the u.s. have significantly stepped up the number of asteroids most be manned and almost weekly attacks they have killed hundreds of thousands by the minute and there's really no one explanation as to why the attack happened now it's much rather just another example of the country's sad reality. now in a kind of all thank you. well let's get a quick check now some other stories making news around the world north korean leader kim jong un has been meeting with the vietnamese president new in funk chong now in north korea the media there described this visit as a goodwill visit it comes a day after the break down of the vietnamese host of some a fifteen kim and us president donald trump which ended when the two sides could not agree on conditions for sanctions relief. there have been tsunami alerts in chile after a powerful earthquake struck in neighboring peru the magnitude seven quake hit a northern province media reports say that the tremor was felt as far away as brazil and bolivia. and the united states has offered a one million dollar reward for information on the exact whereabouts of one of osama bin ladin sons officials believe that homes of bin laden is an emerging leader of al qaida the group brought down the world trade center in the nine eleven attacks in two thousand and one. here in germany swedish climate activist great attorney burke has joined the students on strike in hamburg peoples from around the world have joined the teenager's fridays for future movement walking out of classes to call on politicians to take action on climate change. famous teen activist greater turn back on her school holidays but she's not taking a break from protesting in germany she joined school children on their weekly protest against climate change for way too long the politicians and the people in power have got no way was not doing anything to fight the climate crisis but we will make sure that they will not get away with it any longer. thousands of students have come together to demand that politicians save the planet so they can grow up in a world worth living in and they're demanding that politicians do something about it such as stop burning coal to generate electricity. it's no secret here in germany that the country's going to fail to reach its twenty twenty climate goals now in a bid to reduce greenhouse gases the german government has planned a coalface out by twenty thirty eight but for these school students hitting the streets of come back today that just isn't soon enough. the kids who took to the streets instead of going to classes today know exactly what their message is. i think it's important to stop using coal to produce electricity you soon as possible and to be more aware of climate change like stop using plastic bags and stuff like that make it funny here because i'm concerned about climate change but seeing going to live is also a special experience. here i've taken to the streets today just like every friday personally i try to act in a sustainable way no ad travel and i get around town by public transport or on a bicycle part four. and closer to back had a private message to every. one too but i think we should focus more on the climate in this this is not about me doing the crime i said. the young protesters say they plan to continue demonstrating as part of their fridays for future campaign. turning now to france where a surge in anti semitic violence and hate speech has caused members of the jewish community to fear for their safety the french president emanuel has made a very public show of condemning the crimes which include vandalism of cemeteries online harassment and physical attacks but as you know because catherine morton's reports many jews living in france increasingly feel under threat. they would remove the google hotel door or those who are as if i was going to do well if they were there for the benefit of us a call there's no one will get software though so that's a long shot loam is preparing for shabat it's friday and tonight he's meeting other members of his jewish congregation together they are going to read the sabbath prayer is the thirty four year old is an active member of the jewish community here in paris being jewish is important to him but so is being french that's why the increase in violence disturbs him so much to pose problems in cities with the insults vandalism and sometimes even cases of murder for us that means staying aware and alert and always keeping an eye out we wouldn't have to do that if we didn't feel threatened now we're also asking ourselves is france really the right place for us. around half a million jews live in france the third largest community behind israel and the us last year there were more than five hundred anti-semitic offenses here in increase of around seventy five percent. falsie califano president of the umbrella organization representing france's jewish community is also alarmed he says the real figures are much higher as not every offense is registered he's most concerned for the young. is awful sharif we're noticing that in some regions jewish children are no longer going to public schools they're being pulled out because they can't have a normal school day they're being insulted and their physical safety can't always be guaranteed we. are back in the synagogue young ballerinas are practicing for a big performance the synagogue offers jewish children an afterschool program which parents gladly make use of deaf intel have is the mother of three sons she tells us one of them has moved to israel because he feels safer being jewish there delfin says she's shocked by the rhetoric she hears she thought it was a thing of the past. or not or this when we hear things like go back home it hurts us deeply. you feel threatened to listen more people are all going. to lunch alone is determined to stay in his homeland france despite the worsening situation experts say that anti-semitism is no longer soley coming from right wing groups but also from radical islam what it really has anything to do with religion jews often meet hostility because they're seen as being part of an elite. todd reason see the whole it is the rejection of a community in this case the jewish community that is seen as being privileged as the group with the most influence on the powerful. says he will never conceal the fact that he's jewish despite the dangers. i've never hidden the fact that i'm jewish and i won't do that now when i go to the synagogue for sure but i will my kippah and i will continue to do so much so little real. but when it came to the question of whether he would let his own children wear a cap on public land couldn't give us an answer. and joining in now we have felix climb the german government commissioner for promoting jewish life and combat ing anti-semitism because really anti semitism is on the rise not only in france as we see in there but you know also elsewhere here in germany for example violent attacks were up sixty percent last year how concerning is this not only for the jewish community but also for the german government. the very fact that. i have the. feel that your position that we have that we need a commission for the combat seeing betting it does that it is and shows that the german government has understood the problem that we need an institution that combines all the existing efforts there. formally it's a strategy and this is what i'm doing and i don't feel myself being you know the excuse for politicians not to do anything anymore but in the country i call on the open editions and the old institutions in germany joining me in the fight against anti-civil and i want to talk a little more about how you're fighting at the first perhaps we can talk a little bit more about the root causes and cynicism it really doesn't just come out of nowhere i mean it's often you know fueled by societal discontent what factors do you see specifically a behind the surge in this most recent spate of anti-semitism here in europe well anti-semitism has always existed in europe now it's taking though new forms mainly also directed against israel and what's happening there and the palestinian israeli conflict but. one major reason i think for the rise of anti-semitism is the brutalization of our political discourse it is parties and of course the internet people that would have maybe. it would not dare to say anti-semitic. things in public do so we'll know in the in the internet because they don't feel any contradiction how do you hold them accountable will we have. we have interviews now legislation here in germany. that we make the internet firms accountable for entice a mythic speech on pics of content and that if this nation works quite well it should be ok so perhaps one one step in the right direction on your role is really also as not only anti semitism commissioner but also promoting jewish life which is something quite interesting explain to us you know how you plan on doing that because that's perhaps a little bit more more difficult to do now well that part of my job is really make make me a great pleasure and i'm not jewish but what i try also to to do with it whether to . to make jewish life more visible in germany and to do to show to the german public that jewish life is part of i had diversity part of our german history and tradition and has always existed so there's it's nothing new we have to to to integrate new leo something jewish life has always been part of our history in germany is also so strong because of the contribution of jewish men and women you're calling you're promoting that actually across europe you really want that to grow as an effort what strategies specifically are you proposing well they are i want to. get to interlink all the existing players the jewish communities but also other institutions like. cultural initiatives i. suggested also a jewish guide a tourist a guide for jewish life in germany to make it more visible. guster not make the gastro guy. suggested so as all the positive. contributions jews did and do for for the german reality and to make it more clear because many parts of german cities also all have some of our customs are. jewish traditions and people don't realize and so i do that with jewish. institutions but also with museums with it we have cultural days. culture than it is with all the jewish schools that exist all over the country and so it is a nice spot to show that germany is also so rich as a country because we have that part of our diversity too we thank you so much for joining us to tell slip and more about those initiatives against the backdrop of the fact that unfortunately anti-semitism is currently on the rise felix klein german government commissioner for promoting jewish life and combating anti-semitism thank you thank you. the women's football world cup kicks off in june germany have a new coach and they took on tournament hosts france in a friendly match last night a hard fought
