[00:28.000 --> 00:35.000] With time running out for Britain in Europe to reach a deal on Brexit, the solution [00:35.000 --> 00:38.000] for now, kicking the Brexit can down the road. [00:38.000 --> 00:43.000] European Union leaders are meeting Brussels for another go at reaching an [00:43.000 --> 00:46.000] amicable agreement for Britain to leave the EU. [00:46.000 --> 00:50.000] But the Irish border problem continues to stand in the way. [00:50.000 --> 00:52.000] We'll go live to Brussels for more. [00:52.000 --> 00:59.000] Also, coming up, a massacre in Crimea, a teenager reportedly shot and killed at least [00:59.000 --> 01:06.000] 19 of his fellow college students, injuring dozens more and then, he turned the gun [01:06.000 --> 01:08.000] on himself. [01:08.000 --> 01:13.000] And more gruesome details about how the salty journalists Jamal Khashoggi [01:13.000 --> 01:17.000] ins died inside the salty consulate in Istanbul. [01:17.000 --> 01:24.000] Turkish police say they have more evidence pointing towards the salty royal family. [01:24.000 --> 01:29.000] And DW takes you inside what was once the capital of so-called Islamic State. [01:29.000 --> 01:33.000] The city of Raka was liberated from IS Occupation 1 year ago. [01:33.000 --> 01:39.000] Tonight and exclusive report on the United States willing and unwilling to help [01:39.000 --> 01:56.000] rebuild the city that its coalition airstrikes largely destroyed. [01:56.000 --> 01:57.000] I'm break off. [01:57.000 --> 01:59.000] It's good to have you with us. [01:59.000 --> 02:04.000] Well, they tried again and again, they failed. [02:04.000 --> 02:06.000] European Union leaders are meeting in Brussels tonight. [02:06.000 --> 02:12.000] They had hoped to break the deadlock over a deal for Britain to withdraw from the European Union. [02:12.000 --> 02:17.000] Shortly before the summit, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said that she was optimistic [02:17.000 --> 02:19.000] that a deal could be done. [02:19.000 --> 02:24.000] British Prime Minister Theresa May, she told most reporters that most of the issues have been resolved, [02:24.000 --> 02:32.000] although differences remain over what is known as the Northern Ireland border backstop. [02:32.000 --> 02:39.000] Now, both sides say they want to ensure that there will be no physical border between Northern Ireland, [02:39.000 --> 02:45.000] which is part of Britain and the Irish Republic once Brexit is history. [02:45.000 --> 02:48.000] What we've seen is that we've solved most of issues in withdrawal agreement. [02:48.000 --> 02:52.000] There are still, there is still the question of the Northern Irish backstop. [02:52.000 --> 02:56.000] But I believe everybody around the table wants to get a deal. [02:56.000 --> 03:00.000] By working intensively and closely, we can achieve that deal. [03:00.000 --> 03:04.000] The deal is achieved. Well, now is the time to make it happen. [03:12.000 --> 03:18.000] On the European side, leaders said that there is a willingness to strike a deal with Britain, [03:18.000 --> 03:22.000] but that there is a long way to go. [03:22.000 --> 03:32.000] Brexit must be orderly for everyone and for all these issues, including the Ireland of Ireland. [03:32.000 --> 03:40.000] So we need time, we need much time, much more time, and we will continue to work in the next weeks, [03:40.000 --> 03:44.000] the Camli and Peshanti. [03:44.000 --> 03:47.000] We want good to be the ones for the Italian. [03:47.000 --> 03:50.000] We want good relations with the UK. [03:50.000 --> 03:52.000] We would have liked the exit deal to be ready. [03:52.000 --> 03:56.000] It's only 90% done, and there's work ahead of us. [03:56.000 --> 04:00.000] But I'm approaching it in the spirit of doing everything to reach a deal. [04:00.000 --> 04:02.000] That would be better for everyone. [04:02.000 --> 04:08.000] That's the German Chancellor speaking there. [04:08.000 --> 04:10.000] Let's take this story now to Brussels. [04:10.000 --> 04:14.000] Our correspondent, Max Hoffman, is covering the summit for us. [04:14.000 --> 04:16.000] Good evening to you, Max. [04:16.000 --> 04:18.000] What Michelle Barney said there, we need more time. [04:18.000 --> 04:20.000] What is the takeaway tonight, isn't it? [04:20.000 --> 04:26.000] Everyone seems to be in agreement that they simply need more time to work on a Brexit deal. [04:26.000 --> 04:30.000] Are they simply kicking the Brexit can down the road? [04:30.000 --> 04:36.000] I think they're not just kicking it, they're trying to solve some issues, but it appears [04:36.000 --> 04:40.000] Brent that they've come as far as they can technically. [04:40.000 --> 04:42.000] I don't know if you remember last weekend. [04:42.000 --> 04:46.000] It seemed like we had all the elements for a deal at hand. [04:46.000 --> 04:50.000] There was a real feeling that the deal could be concluded at this summit, [04:50.000 --> 04:56.000] until it became clear that Theresa May would be unable to sell it back home in the UK. [04:56.000 --> 04:58.000] The front line has shifted. [04:58.000 --> 05:00.000] It's no longer between the EU and the UK. [05:00.000 --> 05:02.000] It is within the UK. [05:02.000 --> 05:06.000] The real question is, what can Theresa May sell it home against the Brexit [05:06.000 --> 05:10.000] here, for example, also against the socialist? [05:10.000 --> 05:14.000] It's going to be a very, very hard sell for her, and one strategy might be. [05:14.000 --> 05:20.000] And that's why we're seeing this can be kicked down the road to build up as much pressure as possible. [05:20.000 --> 05:24.000] And in the end, have Theresa May present what she has achieved in the EU, [05:24.000 --> 05:30.000] and then she asks everybody, okay, are you really going to vote this down or not? [05:30.000 --> 05:32.000] And when is that going to happen? [05:32.000 --> 05:36.000] Because you, my friend, and I, we have, we've covered many of these summit, [05:36.000 --> 05:40.000] and we, you know, late night summit saying that this is a crucial summit for Brexit. [05:40.000 --> 05:42.000] This is the make or break summit. [05:42.000 --> 05:46.000] How many more of these summits will there be? [05:46.000 --> 05:50.000] Well, on the topic of Brexit, the number is not going to be very great. [05:50.000 --> 05:56.000] Although I enjoy, of course, with you Brent, but the thing is, they need to finalize a deal. [05:56.000 --> 06:00.000] You know, I'm not going to say it's November, because some here say it December [06:00.000 --> 06:03.000] will leave enough time for to ratify everything. [06:03.000 --> 06:05.000] Some even say January might be enough. [06:05.000 --> 06:10.000] But the essence is that the United Kingdom is going to leave the European Union [06:10.000 --> 06:13.000] on the 29th of March 2019. [06:13.000 --> 06:15.000] So that's where it stops. [06:15.000 --> 06:18.000] They need to find something way before that. [06:18.000 --> 06:21.000] My guest personal guest, but like I said, no guarantees here, [06:21.000 --> 06:26.000] is they need to find something at the latest at the end of December beginning of January. [06:26.000 --> 06:32.000] And was there any sign tonight that European Council President Donald Tusk [06:32.000 --> 06:36.000] is willing to announce that there will be another summit, because, you know, [06:36.000 --> 06:43.000] that had been a matter of contingent about whether or not he would set a date for another summit. [06:43.000 --> 06:49.000] The thing is, they all said that they think it's still possible to reach an agreement [06:49.000 --> 06:52.000] and that they were already to continue the negotiations. [06:52.000 --> 06:56.000] So it's hard to imagine, don't know, Tusk coming out saying, [06:56.000 --> 07:01.000] we're all still willing to talk, but we're not having that summit in November. [07:01.000 --> 07:03.000] So most likely this summit will take place. [07:03.000 --> 07:08.000] The question is, what will it be about? Will it be to finalize a deal with the UK [07:08.000 --> 07:13.000] or will it be to talk about the no deal scenario on the EU side and what to do? [07:13.000 --> 07:17.000] By the way, that was contingency planings have begun. [07:17.000 --> 07:23.000] And one part of the evening here tonight is, as we speak at the moment, [07:23.000 --> 07:29.000] Brent is the commission presenting its plans to the leaders for a no deal scenario. [07:29.000 --> 07:34.000] That's probably taking up more time at the moment than talking about what kind of [07:34.000 --> 07:36.000] concessions they can still make. [07:36.000 --> 07:41.000] Like I said, the feeling here is that EU has done most of what it can do to reach a deal. [07:41.000 --> 07:43.000] Now it's up to the UK. [07:43.000 --> 07:44.000] Yeah. [07:44.000 --> 07:49.000] And the probability of a no deal Brexit stronger than it's ever been. [07:49.000 --> 07:52.000] Max Hopman on the story for tonight in Brussels. [07:52.000 --> 07:55.000] Max, there's always thank you. [07:55.000 --> 07:59.000] I hope you're here now, businesses, companies. [07:59.000 --> 08:04.000] They're watching this and uncertainty, you know, abounds and they don't like that. [08:04.000 --> 08:08.000] Of course, they are very worried about what's going on because they can't plan ahead. [08:08.000 --> 08:09.000] We just heard it. [08:09.000 --> 08:10.000] Some it's come. [08:10.000 --> 08:11.000] Some it's go. [08:11.000 --> 08:13.000] It's question after question that still needs to be answered. [08:13.000 --> 08:17.000] And for business owner, the Brexit confusion means that they are actually losing money. [08:17.000 --> 08:18.000] That's expensive. [08:18.000 --> 08:23.000] That's why people are getting more anxious by the minute. [08:23.000 --> 08:28.000] To have a look into just how the European Union works, you can head to Manahan in Ireland. [08:28.000 --> 08:31.000] Silverhill Farm is a piece of living Europe. [08:31.000 --> 08:36.000] These ducks hatch in Northern Ireland, part of the UK. [08:36.000 --> 08:40.000] Then they are brought to the Republic of Ireland to be fat and slaughtered. [08:40.000 --> 08:45.000] And then back over the border in Northern Ireland, their pact for delivery. [08:45.000 --> 08:49.000] Well, every dog crosses the border at least three times during its lifetime. [08:49.000 --> 08:51.000] Sometimes four, sometimes five. [08:51.000 --> 08:54.000] The fact that the border has been there for 20 years. [08:54.000 --> 09:00.000] A lot of business has built up on the pieces of the free access to both during the troubles. [09:00.000 --> 09:01.000] The border was there. [09:01.000 --> 09:04.000] Like this was a tough area to get them climate in. [09:04.000 --> 09:05.000] There was a massive unemployment. [09:05.000 --> 09:07.000] No one wants to go back to that. [09:07.000 --> 09:10.000] It's not something London wants to return to either. [09:10.000 --> 09:16.000] But the border between the Republic and the North remains a huge point of contention in Brexit negotiations. [09:16.000 --> 09:18.000] Feathers are getting ruffled. [09:18.000 --> 09:22.000] Partly because the United Kingdom itself is divided on the issue of Brexit. [09:22.000 --> 09:26.000] And the complexity of the negotiations are a little understood. [09:26.000 --> 09:28.000] It's confusing. [09:28.000 --> 09:30.000] You don't know why it's going to happen. [09:30.000 --> 09:33.000] One day they say that or one day they say that and you don't know where we're going. [09:33.000 --> 09:36.000] I know about Brexit, but it's so confusing, nobody knows what's going on. [09:36.000 --> 09:39.000] Can somebody tell me or explain Brexit to me? [09:39.000 --> 09:44.000] Just as mystifying, the majority of Irish ducks that are eaten in Great Britain are marketed [09:44.000 --> 09:46.000] and built as London ducks. [09:46.000 --> 09:49.000] The UK is a massive quarter of food. [09:49.000 --> 09:53.000] So they only produce enough to feed 60% of the population. [09:53.000 --> 09:56.000] So 40% of their food would still have to be imported. [09:56.000 --> 10:00.000] The price will be increased by 30% and on the category. [10:00.000 --> 10:06.000] That's going to have a massive impact on their economy and people's ability to buy food. [10:06.000 --> 10:11.000] So Britain had better get all its ducks in a row before March 29th. [10:11.000 --> 10:14.000] I'll see you later with more business news back to your breath. [10:14.000 --> 10:16.000] I'll be your thank you, at least. [10:16.000 --> 10:22.000] 19 people have been killed dozens injured in a shooting in Russia and next Crimea. [10:22.000 --> 10:28.000] The attack took place at a college in the Black Sea port of Kirch. [10:28.000 --> 10:34.000] Our Russian authorities say an 18 year old shot his fellow students and then killed himself. [10:37.000 --> 10:42.000] The drama unfolded at a round noon with what sounded like an explosion. [10:42.000 --> 10:46.000] Conflicting reports followed, some spoke of a bombing, [10:46.000 --> 10:50.000] feuding suspicions of a terror attack on the Crimean College. [10:50.000 --> 10:56.000] By the end of the afternoon, it had become clear that the victims had been shot. [10:56.000 --> 11:03.000] The identity of the young man who arrived at the college shortly before the incident has quickly been established. [11:03.000 --> 11:07.000] Judging from the video recordings, he was holding a rifle. [11:07.000 --> 11:13.000] He's been identified as a 18 year old college student, Vladislav Krosliakov. [11:13.000 --> 11:18.000] His body was found with a gunshot wound in one of the rooms inside the college. [11:18.000 --> 11:22.000] The police have been warned that this young man was killed. [11:22.000 --> 11:29.000] Russian television has released images caught on CCTV of the attacker at the college in Russian annexed Crimea. [11:29.000 --> 11:33.000] Witnesses described a scene of carnage. [11:33.000 --> 11:38.000] I saw people without legs or arms. [11:38.000 --> 11:42.000] There were many bodies, children's bodies. [11:42.000 --> 11:48.000] The Russian backed Crimea leader Sergei Axionov visited the college. [11:48.000 --> 11:54.000] In Moscow, Russian president Vladimir Putin offered his support. [11:54.000 --> 12:03.000] I want to express my condolences to the relatives of those who died and hope the injured will recover soon as possible. [12:03.000 --> 12:10.000] With the investigation on going three days of mourning have been declared in Crimea. [12:10.000 --> 12:15.000] Here's a look at some of the other stories now that are making headlines around the world. [12:15.000 --> 12:20.000] The World Health Organization has warned that the outbreak of Ebola in the Democratic Republic of Congo [12:20.000 --> 12:26.000] could worsen dramatically. The WHO stopped short of declaring an official public health emergency. [12:26.000 --> 12:32.000] But said there is a danger of the potentially fatal disease spreading to neighboring countries. [12:32.000 --> 12:38.000] Protesters trying to stop women from entering one of India's most sacred Hindu sites [12:38.000 --> 12:41.000] have been forcefully moved by police. [12:41.000 --> 12:47.000] The country's top court has ruled that the Saba Rimala Temple in the southern part of the country [12:47.000 --> 12:50.000] must allow women of all ages to enter. [12:50.000 --> 12:55.000] But traditionalists, including some women, are opposed to that decision. [12:55.000 --> 13:02.000] Israel has conducted 20 air strikes on Gaza and closed its border with the Palestinian territory. [13:02.000 --> 13:08.000] This after a rocket fired from Gaza's struck a house in southern Israel early on Wednesday. [13:08.000 --> 13:12.000] Israel blamed Hamas, which governs in Gaza for the rocket attack, [13:12.000 --> 13:16.000] but the military group has denied responsibility. [13:16.000 --> 13:22.000] The investigation into the disappearance of a salty journalist has widened [13:22.000 --> 13:27.000] as Turkish police entered the residence of the salty console in Istanbul. [13:27.000 --> 13:35.000] They're looking for clues in what they say is the murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashm. [13:35.000 --> 13:40.000] The residence is just two kilometers from the consulate where the salty rider vanished [13:40.000 --> 13:44.000] while trying to pick up paperwork to get married. [13:44.000 --> 13:50.000] Meanwhile, in Ankara, U.S. Secretary of State might Pompeo met with Turkish President Richard Tyrep [13:50.000 --> 13:56.000] Erdogan today for talks about the disappearance of the journalist. [13:56.000 --> 14:00.000] While our correspondent, Dorian Jones, is on the story for his tonight in Istanbul, [14:00.000 --> 14:02.000] good evening to you, Dorian. [14:02.000 --> 14:06.000] In Turkish investigators have entered the salty console's residence. [14:06.000 --> 14:08.000] They've begun their investigation. [14:08.000 --> 14:18.000] What have they found, and they reportedly were looking for remains of the journalist body, weren't they? [14:18.000 --> 14:23.000] Yeah, that is one of the objectives of this operation, [14:23.000 --> 14:28.000] but what we understand is from sources linked to the investigation. [14:28.000 --> 14:32.000] They have already uncovered what they claim is forensic evidence. [14:32.000 --> 14:38.000] They've discovered that the salty console had confirmed their suspicions that Khashoggi was in the murder. [14:38.000 --> 14:43.000] In fact, following those discoveries, they went back to the salty console of building [14:43.000 --> 14:49.000] to carry out a second investigation, possibly searching the same place that they've recovered. [14:49.000 --> 14:54.000] This initial claim forensic evidence, so they do appear to be making progress [14:54.000 --> 14:59.000] and further assertions of both buildings are expected in the coming days. [14:59.000 --> 15:07.000] And more gruesome details emerged today about how Mr Khashoggi died. [15:07.000 --> 15:12.000] What did we learn today? [15:12.000 --> 15:18.000] Yeah, this was from Jenny Shafak, newspaper linked very closely with the Turkish government. [15:18.000 --> 15:23.000] They published what they say was a story that was taken from audio recordings taken [15:23.000 --> 15:27.000] in the last hours of Khashoggi's detention at the Saudi consulate. [15:27.000 --> 15:31.000] They claim that those audio recorded him being brutally tortured. [15:31.000 --> 15:37.000] At one part of the newspaper articles suggested he had his fingers cut off during the interrogation. [15:37.000 --> 15:42.000] Subsequently he died and thereby his body was then dismembered. [15:42.000 --> 15:47.000] Now, they say that also apparently during that was those brutal events. [15:47.000 --> 15:54.000] The Saudi consulate general was present as well as a number of other figures that were linked to this so-called Saudi hit team [15:54.000 --> 15:55.000] that arrived the same day. [15:55.000 --> 15:58.000] Now, I have to stress that this hasn't been cooperated. [15:58.000 --> 16:03.000] Turkey has claimed that they have had other video and audio recordings for several days [16:03.000 --> 16:05.000] after Khashoggi disappeared. [16:05.000 --> 16:06.000] None of them have appeared. [16:06.000 --> 16:10.000] And in fact, the U.S. President Donald Trump today does appear to be losing patience. [16:10.000 --> 16:13.000] He says he expects to see and hear these by the end of the week. [16:13.000 --> 16:16.000] We will see whether Turkey can deliver them. [16:16.000 --> 16:22.000] And we're talking about the Turkish authorities searching the residents of the consulate general in Istanbul. [16:22.000 --> 16:25.000] What have we heard about the consulate general? [16:25.000 --> 16:28.000] He left Turkey in a hurry yesterday. [16:28.000 --> 16:30.000] What happened? [16:30.000 --> 16:33.000] Indeed, yes. [16:33.000 --> 16:40.000] Muhammad al-Al-Tibi did leave very quickly just before investigators started to do a search of his Khashoggi. [16:40.000 --> 16:43.000] Khashoggi has made him a key person of interest. [16:43.000 --> 16:48.000] Now, there have been unconfirmed reports that he has even been removed from his position [16:48.000 --> 16:52.000] back in rear, although I have to stress that hasn't yet become firm. [16:52.000 --> 16:58.000] But certainly he is a key person as is the bodyguard of Muhammad bin Salman, the Crown Prince. [16:58.000 --> 17:04.000] He, too, is also being identified by the authorities as a possible ringleader of this operation. [17:04.000 --> 17:09.000] And there are growing calls for the diplomatic community to be lifted of anyone involved [17:09.000 --> 17:12.000] allegedly in the disappearance of this Saudi journalist. [17:12.000 --> 17:20.000] Our correspondent, Dorian Jones, on the story force tonight, in Istanbul, Dorian, thank you very much. [17:20.000 --> 17:26.000] The Islamic State Jihadist group was driven out of itself declared capital in Syria. [17:26.000 --> 17:33.000] One year ago, local militias fought them on the ground as U.S. planes bombed them from the air. [17:33.000 --> 17:38.000] Now, the fight for the city of Raqab lasted four months and saw thousands of people kill. [17:38.000 --> 17:42.000] The city is now free of IS, but it lies in ruins. [17:42.000 --> 17:48.000] DW's reporters forget to show up and Jafar Abdul Kareem went there with the U.S. Army to look [17:48.000 --> 17:56.000] at what the United States is willing and not willing to do to help the city recover. [17:56.000 --> 17:59.000] Abdullah is happy to see us in his classroom. [17:59.000 --> 18:05.000] It's a place of safety where he can finally learn and play with other children. [18:05.000 --> 18:08.000] It's a year since he lost his hand. [18:08.000 --> 18:13.000] He had a friend found a fridge, which had a booby trap inside. [18:13.000 --> 18:18.000] We were playing with it and it exploded. [18:18.000 --> 18:23.000] Two children next to me died, and an old man was badly hurt. [18:23.000 --> 18:30.000] I was two by a piece of shrapnel. Two of my friends died. [18:30.000 --> 18:38.000] Highfile Ali teaches the special class addressing the particular needs of disabled and traumatist children. [18:38.000 --> 18:43.000] She wasn't allowed to work at all when the IS were in charge. [18:43.000 --> 18:49.000] All she says about that time is that it was hot for everyone. [18:49.000 --> 18:57.000] We noticed the children freeze up whenever they hear shots and explosions, which are still frequent here. [18:57.000 --> 19:02.000] They completely unsettled them. [19:02.000 --> 19:05.000] The United States funds the class. [19:05.000 --> 19:10.000] We are on a trip organized by the U.S. Army and State Department. [19:10.000 --> 19:15.000] They want to show us what has been achieved since the victory over IS in Raka. [19:15.000 --> 19:22.000] And they want to encourage more countries to fund the stabilization of the city. [19:22.000 --> 19:27.000] The security measures during our visit here in the Raka are very, very tight. [19:27.000 --> 19:31.000] They have been several terror attacks over the past months. [19:31.000 --> 19:35.000] And there are still IS sleeper cells operating in the city. [19:35.000 --> 19:41.000] The fight against the so-called Islamic State in Raka, which included U.S. air strikes, [19:41.000 --> 19:44.000] destroyed more than 70% of the city. [19:44.000 --> 19:49.000] There's not much left, barely any hospitals, homes or anywhere to live, [19:49.000 --> 19:52.000] and no man's electricity. [19:52.000 --> 19:57.000] But people are slowly coming back. [19:57.000 --> 19:59.000] We really need work. [19:59.000 --> 20:01.000] If you don't have work, you can't eat or drink. [20:01.000 --> 20:04.000] Work is the most important thing. [20:04.000 --> 20:08.000] Luckily, some schools are opening again, and we registered our children. [20:08.000 --> 20:11.000] My daughter was not allowed to study under IS. [20:11.000 --> 20:17.000] Now she's in the first grade, even though she's older, but still, she's allowed to study. [20:17.000 --> 20:22.000] The U.S. has been giving what it calls stabilization aid to Raka. [20:22.000 --> 20:27.000] That means clearing minds and rubble, repairing buildings and supporting local people, [20:27.000 --> 20:31.000] but it doesn't mean large-scale reconstruction. [20:31.000 --> 20:34.000] Well, the United States has said that in terms of rebuilding, [20:34.000 --> 20:39.000] that can't begin until we've got irreversible progress towards a political solution [20:39.000 --> 20:41.000] through the Geneva process. [20:41.000 --> 20:43.000] And so that's what we're looking towards. [20:43.000 --> 20:47.000] It's irreversible progress on the political front. [20:47.000 --> 20:52.000] The future of Syria is being negotiated far away in Geneva, [20:52.000 --> 20:55.000] but the U.N. sponsor talks there have stored. [20:55.000 --> 20:58.000] And in Raka, the pressure is on. [20:58.000 --> 21:01.000] The longer reconstruction takes to begin, [21:01.000 --> 21:05.000] says Co-Chair of Raka Sivir Council, Laila Mustafa, [21:05.000 --> 21:10.000] the greater the danger that IS might regain support among the people. [21:10.000 --> 21:14.000] The help of it so far is welcome, but it's not enough. [21:14.000 --> 21:19.000] Meeting with the U.S. representative, the council event their frustration. [21:19.000 --> 21:25.000] They've heard that U.S. President Donald Trump cut about $200 million [21:25.000 --> 21:29.000] from Syria's stabilization aid. [21:29.000 --> 21:32.000] Those who destroyed the city should rebuild it. [21:32.000 --> 21:36.000] We expect the coalition and the United States to help us with this. [21:36.000 --> 21:39.000] They promise they would. [21:39.000 --> 21:45.000] For now, it's projects like this that the civil council is focusing on [21:45.000 --> 21:48.000] repairing Raka's infamous stadium. [21:48.000 --> 21:53.000] The foreman, Ahmad tells us Islamic State terrorists [21:53.000 --> 21:56.000] carried out mass executions here, [21:56.000 --> 22:01.000] and that they tortured hundreds of civilians in these sellers. [22:01.000 --> 22:04.000] I hope that the stadium will be full again one day, [22:04.000 --> 22:07.000] and the people will come and play sports here again. [22:07.000 --> 22:10.000] Like they did before the IS took control. [22:10.000 --> 22:12.000] That's what we're hoping for. [22:12.000 --> 22:17.000] The first football games are due to take place here in a couple of weeks. [22:17.000 --> 22:21.000] They could offer brief respite from everyday life, [22:21.000 --> 22:25.000] and the ruins of Raka. [22:25.000 --> 22:29.000] And our correspondents are geared to will be with me in the day [22:29.000 --> 22:33.000] after this show to talk more about Raka when you're after the liberation. [22:33.000 --> 22:38.000] I hope you're back now with more business. [22:38.000 --> 22:39.000] Thank you very much, friend. [22:39.000 --> 22:42.000] Yes, we do have to take a look at the numbers to put you up to speed. [22:42.000 --> 22:45.000] We're going to start with netflix. [22:45.000 --> 22:51.000] The company beat investor expectations to add nearly 7 million new subscribers in the last quarter. [22:51.000 --> 22:55.000] The streaming service reported that profit more than tripled from a year ago, [22:55.000 --> 22:57.000] and revenues remain strong. [22:57.000 --> 23:00.000] Netflix has invested heavily in original programming, [23:00.000 --> 23:05.000] and the new figures boosted the netflix stock more than 4%. [23:05.000 --> 23:10.000] Over to our New York financial correspondent, Yens Kota, [23:10.000 --> 23:11.000] hi, Yens. [23:11.000 --> 23:16.000] Well, it seems like netflix could do to TV what Amazon did to retail. [23:16.000 --> 23:18.000] Is that right? [23:18.000 --> 23:22.000] Well, I mean, in a certain sense, yes, [23:22.000 --> 23:25.000] but then again, there's also some competition out. [23:25.000 --> 23:33.000] Amazon, the company you just named is also into the streaming business or on demand programming. [23:33.000 --> 23:40.000] But yes, I mean, almost every second household in the US has a subscription of netflix. [23:40.000 --> 23:43.000] So that is a quite impressive number. [23:43.000 --> 23:49.000] The big question is what's going to happen when we look further down at the line. [23:49.000 --> 23:54.000] In the past, for example, studios like Walt Disney or Warner Brothers, [23:54.000 --> 23:58.000] they actually sold their content to netflix, [23:58.000 --> 24:03.000] but now Disney or AT&T, the parent company of Warner Brothers, [24:03.000 --> 24:06.000] they're building their own on demand services. [24:06.000 --> 24:08.000] So competition will probably increase for netflix, [24:08.000 --> 24:13.000] but so far investors were thrilled by those numbers. [24:13.000 --> 24:17.000] The stock of netflix even before we got the quarterly results, [24:17.000 --> 24:21.000] is up so far this year by 80% and here in the Wednesday session, [24:21.000 --> 24:23.000] added another 5%. [24:23.000 --> 24:26.000] It's going to get stressful there, but maybe it's a good option to go to Canada, [24:26.000 --> 24:29.000] then as Canada legalizes marijuana, [24:29.000 --> 24:34.000] hence why our cannabis producer shares on a downer if we see this happening. [24:34.000 --> 24:39.000] Well, if you look what happened in the past couple of weeks, [24:39.000 --> 24:45.000] it was a huge rally with the few cannabis players on Wall Street, [24:45.000 --> 24:51.000] those stock prices, of those companies, they tripled in the past couple of weeks. [24:51.000 --> 24:55.000] So for once, you could say, well, by on the rumor sell on facts, [24:55.000 --> 25:00.000] but then on the other side, we also have to see what about global growth. [25:00.000 --> 25:05.000] So far, Canada is only the second country on the planet that actually also [25:05.000 --> 25:11.000] allows recreational use of cannabis, at least on a federal level. [25:11.000 --> 25:15.000] One big market for sure would be the US market, [25:15.000 --> 25:19.000] but it is not very likely at this point, [25:19.000 --> 25:24.000] even if there is more and more support, also for the Mariana business here in the US. [25:24.000 --> 25:28.000] I mean, it means a lot of text dollars, but to really get those company [25:28.000 --> 25:33.000] and the industry going, you would probably need other countries to follow [25:33.000 --> 25:36.000] what Canada did here on Wednesday. [25:36.000 --> 25:37.000] He wants to go out from Wall Street. [25:37.000 --> 25:41.000] Thank you very much for the analysis. [25:41.000 --> 25:44.000] Now for something for all you minimalists out there, [25:44.000 --> 25:49.000] Japanese telecom provider NTT.com is introducing a stripped down smartphone [25:49.000 --> 25:52.000] that's so small it can fit in your wallet. [25:52.000 --> 25:56.000] Its main function is to make phone calls or send text messages. [25:56.000 --> 25:59.000] You cannot watch movies or play games on it, [25:59.000 --> 26:01.000] but it certainly is easy to carry around, [26:01.000 --> 26:04.000] weighing only a third of a regular smartphone. [26:04.000 --> 26:09.000] The company says more and more customers are looking for smaller smartphones. [26:09.000 --> 26:14.000] And I just know what to get rent for his birthday. [26:14.000 --> 26:15.000] That's exactly right. [26:15.000 --> 26:18.000] I wonder if the bill every month is smaller too. [26:18.000 --> 26:19.000] Thank you very much. [26:19.000 --> 26:24.000] The head of the USA gymnastics is quit after just four days on the job. [26:24.000 --> 26:27.000] Mary Bonda says that she was forced to resign [26:27.000 --> 26:30.000] because of personal attacks against her. [26:30.000 --> 26:34.000] She was criticized for her opposition to a recent Nike sportswear [26:34.000 --> 26:35.000] advertisement. [26:35.000 --> 26:40.000] It featured former NFL player and civil rights campaigner Colin Kaepernick. [26:40.000 --> 26:45.000] USA gymnastics has been rocked by former team doctor Larry Nasser [26:45.000 --> 26:48.000] being convicted of sexually abusing athletes. [26:48.000 --> 26:52.000] Bullknows previous role in the wall firm involved in the Nasser case, [26:52.000 --> 26:55.000] also angered gymnast. [26:55.000 --> 26:58.000] Because the reminder of the top story that we're following for you, [26:58.000 --> 27:03.000] top European union leaders say they need more time to hammer out a deal [27:03.000 --> 27:06.000] on Britain leaving the European Union. [27:06.000 --> 27:12.000] He issues remain unresolved, including the status of the Northern Irish border. [27:12.000 --> 27:17.000] You're watching TW News live from Berlin after a short break. [27:17.000 --> 27:35.000] I'll be back to take you through the day. [27:47.000 --> 27:52.000] Thank you very much. [28:18.000 --> 28:24.000] Inter at the conflict zone, confronting the powerful. [28:24.000 --> 28:30.000] Two years ago, the Philippines began a brutal war against the drug gangs in which thousands of people died. [28:30.000 --> 28:35.000] Human rights activists and journalists charged the police with illegal killings, [28:35.000 --> 28:38.000] charges which President Duterte has vigorously denied. [28:38.000 --> 28:43.000] My guest this week here in Manila is his legal adviser Salvador Panelo. [28:43.000 --> 28:45.000] Welcome to Conflict Zone. [28:45.000 --> 28:52.000] In 60 minutes on TW. [29:01.000 --> 29:04.000] The armed forces are under pressure. [29:04.000 --> 29:12.000] They're battling recruiting problems, outdated and broken down equipment and limited budgets. [29:12.000 --> 29:15.000] The challenges are huge. [29:15.000 --> 29:16.000] A solution of tanks. [29:16.000 --> 29:18.000] We have tank divisions that don't have tanks. [29:18.000 --> 29:23.000] So outsourcing and privatization are the order of the day in all areas. [29:23.000 --> 29:25.000] But that can post dangers. [29:25.000 --> 29:29.000] Every A that a wall goes on private sector businesses make money. [29:29.000 --> 29:37.000] With everything from reconnaissance drones to laundry facilities, firms are infiltrating the armed forces in France and Germany. [29:37.000 --> 29:44.000] Military industrial complex on TW. [30:07.000 --> 30:20.000] It was supposed to be the night of a Brexit breakthrough summit. [30:20.000 --> 30:25.000] Britain and the European Union both agreeing to an amicable divorce. [30:25.000 --> 30:31.000] But for British Prime Minister Theresa May, the best laid plans of London and Brussels. [30:31.000 --> 30:38.000] Have indeed gone awry. Again, I'm Brent Kaufman Berlin. This is the day.
