as lift tons of ground staff, go on strike in germany, affecting hundreds of flights in and out of the country. the inquiry. richardson, a welcome begins with some breaking news in pockets. don officials say to bomb attacks have killed at least 24 people a day before parliamentary elections and thousands are reported injured. both blasts happened outside political offices in south west village has done province. the 1st, if the district of to see the 2nd went off in the city of cuba, safe lula. this truck is the country has heightened security ahead of the elections august dawn has seemed a search in violence by militants leading up to the vote. let's get the very

latest from dw, so try me on shines of joining me now from karachi. i should mail. can you tell us what more we know at this point as well as the board does, we have the in books done have just told me that at least 26 people have been killed and dozens have been in getting back to back last and the little just on problems and the depth. busy of good drives because obviously these kind of incidents and possibly dentist dots that don't good. always be higher than what we yeah. and you should be from the reporters. i could always be higher than what we. yeah. and you should have some of the folders and local media. so it's a very uh very dangerous, very difficult situation at the moment. and these people who have lost their lives,

dealing with the authorities, have taken the injured people to host. and so it's difficult. so not data is, is there already any indication of who might be behind these attacks, or is it possible to say who might have an incentive to carry out attacks like this at this moment? no, no, no group has no group has claimed responsibility for the the tax. but the below just on is a province which has been monitored by uh was sorts of findings to separate us buttons at the militant as long as 2 buttons and other kinds of groups have been operating this problem server just lost audio there for a moment. let me, i think we can hear you again, which for this is me for interrupting, but some you, if you can hear me, i just want to ask we've had 3 blasts in total just this week to 2 of which came

a day before box on these are heading to the polls tomorrow. do you have a sense of how this will affect the elections? it will have a do for the effect in my b. b. i'm afraid we're having trouble with the audio connection, but i want to thank deed of these ashley nations for bringing us up to speed from karachi. we'll try to get back across when we can. so as we've heard, these blots have occurred as candidates, poll workers and voters across pockets on are preparing for thursday's parliamentary elections. but independent monitors and human rights groups have been questioning the context, integrity and credibility among the biggest issues as a crackdown on former prime minister and my cons. political party as the w,

venus traffic now reports. and it's one of the final these assembly in the city of rob has been d 1st name up yet that his, she's running for the seat environment, which is facing an up back. she's a member of the b p. i. the parties like by farmer prime minister in rod han, but he's currently in g. i just bought from distinctive collection. the bought the has been effectively removed from the by the people and its members helping for us to run as independent. the back down there. we a precinct, i don't know what i'm doing to get one of the plans out there every day. are people are caught in the center. she goes there. you know, as we are competing here, we will be followed by the police going up that down. yeah, they shouldn't want to take off the beat. the i is going to focus on the most popular parties. and with the con, one of its most with depends on the emotions are running high at the home. so for

support of the see the charges that got him g and were politically more debated and that there's a dumping against them. they are not allowing us to give you are not allowed to display posters and banners by all of these bodies are allowed to do that to you, but it's not an out loud. good thing. i'm the brought the adults with us. when we display banners, it died and few in the morning that taken over with my fraud, unknown people to get to that. so i have to do the door campaign dollar thing like somebody gets off. this is done by a known people because i think the skate of p d. i and the dual point bpi building at any cost that i say when got a con, sees the military is behind the crack down. but the part of these denied their targeting cod spotty. this is not the 1st time fox hunt oil solver for the military has been accused reflection. midland called himself as believe to have profited from it support when he became prime minister in 2018. but no,

but they both have done last election. it was cons, opened and the boss cities who followed him says binge it back now with caught out a fever. the ministry establishment is believed to be back in should he? and despite the claims of the daughter in defendants made me still believe in the father of did vote. what getting it or pin big thing to voting began make a difference. could you pay $3.00? okay. your voting is the last 2 would be have to get to don't the operation an injustice that we are facing last told we have, i'm really hoping fingers crossed that our boards will make a difference. and there would be transparency in the boarding process. focused on has been in for the ticket prices for the past 2 years. many are feeling that hold on the selection as a way out of the credit, but it, it could still meet in the middle east. the us secretary of state is preparing for

a day of negotiations in israel as he seeks agreement on a cease fire for the war and gaza. anthony blank, and we'll discuss from us as reported the positive response to a draft plan appropriate by the us guitar. and egypt mediators are cautiously optimistic that as well could reach an agreement with him us, which carried out the october 7th terror attack. full months into the will, media engines appeared closer than ever to a breakthrough. after talks and casa, the us secretary of state expressed optimism, this a lot of work to be done. but we continue to believe that an agreement as possible and indeed essential. and we will continue to work relentlessly to achieve it. this anthony blinking diplomatic mission continues in israel, where he's discussing the proposal with the as riley prime minister benjamin netanyahu. it would include the release of hostages in gaza and exchange for the release of palestinian prisoners by israel will not giving me any details from us.

released the statement saying it responded to the proposal in a quote, positive spirit. but it added that it was asking for a complete cx 5, as well as the listing of the guys, a sage. that seems hard to reconcile with the goals cs out by benjamin netanyahu. we won't total victory and not only the elimination of a mass, but also the elimination of its commanders and their heads. because they have the pressure on nathan yahoo to secure a deal is high. israel has confirmed that 31 of the remaining hostages being held by homeless and gulf a dude. the army believes that around $100.00 hostages, a still alive, international diplomat. i know scrambling to secure the over 10, which means the face with one of the toughest tasks in this war, helping israel and home us find a middle ground to these corresponding rebecca writers is following that story for

us from jerusalem. i asked her about lincoln's apparent optimism over this deal. is it clear that is certainly what we're hearing from the blinking tab. who arrived in israel last night? they did say of the mouse counter offered to that deal just briefly just as they were landing in could tell yesterday actually. and then they discussed that they mailing it over in the, obviously, but it can, we'll be discussing that with the israelis here in israel today. as, as you heard and not pay says we're hearing from anthony blink. and he says he's cautiously optimistic if you will. but it's still quite a long way to go. the devil is in the detail, the framework, the lodge for um you know, the overall to you framework seems to basically have been agreed upon by both sides . but what we're saying with the most counter offer and then we don't know many of the details is that they are still pushing for this time. and it say saw are a complete withdrawal of israeli troops in order to fully agree and get on board. now that is something that israel apartments to benjamin netanyahu has said

absolutely no to. so whether or not anthony, blinking on the rest of the negotiating team, can really get the 2 sides to meet somewhere in the middle. still remains to be saying that it has to be said these things. they're not all over the line until they are over the line. no 100 percent. it's 0 percent. so what else there is cautious optimism. we could be some days, weeks off and you know, the, so every opportunity that things could fall through, but suddenly looking positive at this stage, we should know more in the coming days. unless take a quick look at and then yahoo is stands here and, and he is about to continue this more until total victory by which of course means wiping out from us. i'm curious whether you think this recent news of more hostage depths and gaza could affect his calculations. here. it was that's hard to say exactly whether or not that's going to affect these calculations, but he's coming under increasing pressure from the hostage families and an increasing number of his riley's who are demanding the return of the hostages. and

that to competition, you could say with the demands of his own file, right coalition, they are saying absolute victory. the end of him us will stop at nothing. and so you've got competing interest there. and benjamin netanyahu certainly fighting for his own political survival, trying to sort of balance those 2 accounts to objectives. but whether or not the, you know, this will change anything. obviously the news of more that hostages puts more pressure on benjamin netanyahu. it certainly angles the as riley, popular population, and it certainly angles the hostage families has been demanding now for weeks and months that they do more that the government do more to try and get the hostages out. so the pressure is definitely ramping up, but you benjamin netanyahu, i don't think we'll will agree or the government certainly want to agree to a complaint say as far as looking i said time and time again that they wouldn't do that. so you know, it pressure yes. but whether or not that will affect them, outcome certainly remains to be st. claire. and coming back to this proposal that

blinking is hoping to secure what do you think it would take for as well to agree to this deal as well. both sides, obviously, in any negotiation, conte looked like they giving way too many concessions. and that's certainly something that israel is aware of. i'm sure it's something that her mazda is aware of. what is why they've come back with the counter proposal again, is row, you know, as i said, benjamin netanyahu coming under increase pressure to see some kind of mean a positive movement on this to see a release of some of these hostages will come some way to agreeing they already have tacitly agreed to the framework put in place. so it is looking mosley, they would agree to unlimited say 5 to more a going into the gaza in return folder as hostages, and to see the release of some palestinian prisoners and exchange fools at the exact number of palestinian prisoners is not yet known. when the last deal was struck, the ratio was 3 to 13 palestinian prisoners for every hostage we could see uh

something like that. they agreed upon a game, but i think the, the must side of the mounting for more now, you know, time is running out for them as well. they are losing their, losing their clouts of if they give up all the hostages, then what else did they really have the bargaining chip? so, you know, both sides still very far apart, even though we're seeing those positive signs exactly what israel will agree to will certainly only be something that they can sell to the domestic audience here and also to the americans and keeping everyone on the side. and certainly something the benjamin netanyahu will only agree to something that he can sell to the far right. members of his arm policy. rebecca, thank you for bringing us up to speed there. that's the w, corresponded rebecca river's reporting from jerusalem, or the relatives of some israeli hostages. have been taking part in protests against the delivery of aid at a keyboard or crossing into gaza agencies or the flow of supplies is already insufficient to meet the needs of the hundreds of thousands. now displaced inside the territory with families and particularly young children in the brunt after 4

months of war. the prices of basic supplies, parents of young children need here have skyrocketed. diapers are running low and high prices mean many parents can't afford to buy them at all. well, baby formula is hard to come by. the displace mother says she's forced to feed her infant daughter ground rice and biscuits, even though it's making her sick. for the most common knowledge that this is unhealthy for babies. so every note that it's causing intestinal distress, clothing and color, you can see she's like this around the clock and the crying non stop. the last week we had to take her to the alex, the hospital a full time. we know it's coming home, but nothing's available. see, what can we do? so some women are now using close to replace diapers. when are you?

how can i get dipoles? yeah, my husbands, unemployed, and gets assistance. the spread of disease in refugee camps is creating an even greater need for medical supplies. some 85 percent of palestinians and gaza had been displaced since the start of the war in the doctor's warren, densely populated camps, post even a greater risk of illness for young children in the highest speed. what we're now seeing going around is hepatitis a and we in the infection resulted from densely populated places due to the war and displaced people, intense, scan it, and as a pain. in the meanwhile, at israel's care, him shall loan crossing with gaza is rarely protesters including far right groups and relatives of hostages. continue to block trucks of humanitarian aid. they are

calling for deliveries to be halted until hostages held in gaza. are released well ahead from all of the country. apple staffing the tracks from getting in to god that seemed to the how much this is our mission and today we did it since duke tober 7 tier attacks almost all food production and gaza has been halted for many, desperately waiting for trucks to arrive humanitarian aid is the only lifeline we can bring up to speed. now is another story is making news around the world today or ukraine's president will let them use the landscapes as russian air strikes have killed at least 2 people in the capital keys. and one person in the southern city of nikolai, of ukraine's armies as their defense as shop down $29.00 missiles and 15 drones, the attack shut down power to some parts of kids. poles and as are by john,

airports have been cancelled as the ground staff of the country's biggest airline goes on strike. the walk out of live tons of work are as follows, with failure of the latest round of wage negotiations between the airline and the union, representing ground crews around $100000.00 passengers are expected to be affected by the work stoppage scheduled to last until early thursday. morning is the latest in the series of strikes in germany by staff and airline boss and rail services. in recent weeks. earlier i spoke to dw political correspondent, matthew moore. he's been covering the story for us at berlin's international airports. i asked him to walk me through what the 2 sides are arguing about yeah, all, but a handful of flights really have been cancelled by the funds of the day and behind me, the scene is really quiet this morning. but the debate between workers and their bosses is anything, thoughts, union members, one, a 12 percent p rise for all 25000 of them. the basically,

and that's why they've caused this warning strike, which is really a, as a way to flex their muscles and show their bosses how destructive a walk can be. and essentially the for the bolt, for their part, the most is definitely an offer on the table. and the offer on the table, which was 13 percent over 3 years. so some we shot, i'm going to use them on their bosses said essentially they're watching and a really tough internationally competitive environment. and ultimate lady said that calling a strike of 27 hours on the stage even before sort of issue those patients have begun. the said was in comprehensible. they'll have to say living here in germany, it's certainly feels like there have been a lot of strikes in recent weeks. why are we seeing so many of the? yeah i, i'm the same. every time i wake up or every week, it seems like there's a new, slight cold and not shooting because geometry is in

a very tight spot. inflation is sky high countries in a recession. wages have fallen 4 percent in the past year. so for ordinary people who work, cuz every time they go to the shop, things are getting more expensive in the suddenly keep up with the renters. and so ultimately you bought that combined with a labor shortage, which means that the usability have a release from negotiating hung. we see that because when they, when they are negotiating for it for further increases that they're, they're preaching really large increases at demands on the tables. and you'll see that as well clear when you look at union membership to memberships in germany and some sectors of the highest they've been since the mid 19 eighties. which only goes to show that they know that strikes are good for business because they can drive out their recruitment, but they're also really useful way of showing how destructive they can be for, for the, for the economy. on one economist actually side 0. this is really a movement of proof for germany's consensus driven relations, industrial relations management. and i think it's also, frankly,

a moment of truth for germany, the 4th largest economy in the world as to whether it can get a grip on, on this uh, on this economy on how to, to, to essentially make people feel like a better off when they go to work together and give them a pay rise essentially for matthew, thank you for your reporting. that's our political correspondence. matthew moore. let's turn to indonesia now, where people living along the java coast are fighting a losing battle against the rising sea levels. with their village slowly slipping under the waves, a residence in timble, so excuse me, timbers locals have been forced to adapt to a new way of living on the water. but as the w is pre to pursue my approach, he has been finding out the villagers and i only have a few years left before their homes and lights are completely submerged. so light on her way to work the 17 year old used to walk here, but those days are over now. she can only get there by paddling about for 30

minutes and then do mass wellness on why this area used to be a rice felt kind of a huge rice failed to them. now it is gone and fish ponds being built on black. initially the water was needing me, but now it's just the chest, the cool. i have no other option. i do this to make ends meet and to eat, give me all the money i make is not enough. and i'll come on. i'm gonna, can we put the rising sea levels now threatened her entire village at high tide. the sea wash is due, almost every house residents have been forced to raise their houses 3 times since 2010. but now they can't go any higher. and what is going on and tim goes, logo is happening all along jeff us, northshore several factors contributed to timbales, locals life including rising sea levels and ground subsidence. but the villages problems were compounded after the member for is that how protected from the sea

was cut down to make room for more fish farms. the villagers realized their mistake too late and efforts drew for as the mangroves have failed to the waist are just too strong and wash the plans. the way support from the government has been minimal . this road the residents have to build themselves. i'm standing on what needs to be the main road residents you see be able to drive through the village on model bar. but now people have to get about on foot on wooden boardwalks, which are not safe for kids. those same kids now have to take a boat to get to class. the school bus has long been replaced. the situation for the villagers is becoming untenable. currently, only some 400 people remain in symbols, local over 80, have chosen to move somebody, i remember. so i like not every house has

a decent bathroom set up and so people around here end up doing their business openly. additionally, there is no place to pay because the house is also something that desiccation is also have hazard due to the absence of proper facilities. so yeah, definitely definitely somebody. and this is what kind of changed looks like on the ground for many people on entities, just coast watching those locals and habits and said they are determined to stay. they have no concrete plan on how to save their village. the entire coastal area here is predicted to be completely submerged by 2030 so far we go quick reminder of our top stories. more than 20 people have been killed and does have ventured into bama tax and pakistan on the blast outside political offices in the country, south western village, just on providence, come on the eve of nationwide parliamentary elections. and one has claimed responsibility for the bombing and us secretary of state antony blinking is in israel, where he's due to meet senior as really officials to discuss the proposed because

a ceasefire deals come off as reported. they responded quotes in a positive spirit, the proposal. israel says it as thoroughly as evaluating the details of a master's response, and that is your news update at this hour. thank you so much for watching the
