7:03 pm
around here. we've heard sporadic shelling in this area. we've been to a village, basically the closest village you can get to the frontline ukrainian military advising heavily on us. not going any further. we've met a woman in that village. i suppose. you could really describe it more of a hamlet or 4 or 5 houses. aha, a shell had landed very close to her home, and basically much of the home destroyed. we asked her why she hasn't joined the hundreds of thousands of other people that have left this area. and it's often at the same response that you get from people still here, which is literally i have no where else to go. meanwhile, we understand that there has been shelling in various different places along the front line. we can hear stuff going on both to our east and west, the rumbling of what sound like curb possibly air strikes, possibly heavy artillery. we cannot confirm either side whether whether it's incoming or outgoing. and interestingly, there is this sense of
7:04 pm
a renew confidence if you like, in the ukraine, in military amongst the ukraine and officials who are saying that there has been, well they describe as an offensive to try or at least repelling the success in repelling russia's move. the russian forces moves on a number of different areas. so western pass, sending more arms shipments to ukraine. let's bring in a white house correspondent, kimberly how could a in washington? kimberly tell us more about the us plans for more military assistance. the ukraine say department has confirmed that the united states is wing another package of military assistance to ukraine. this is in addition to the 800000000 that has already been given to ukraine in recent weeks. what we know is that this package will be similar to the last one, but in terms of what it will look like. specifically those details still not
7:05 pm
available. and in terms of when this could be announced, that is also unclear. but in terms of the last package, we know that it included radar systems, coastal defense unmanned systems, as well as small arms and ammunition. and we expect that the package of assistance that could be announced to imminently will be similar. now, this is all coming on the heels of a meeting between the u. s. president by video conference and western allies that took place about 24 hours ago. this has been an ongoing consultation that the u. s . president has had, since russia invaded ukraine. and we also know that there have been grave concerns that have been raised by reporters here in the united states, as well as around european capitals about the concern. but ukraine is running dangerously low on ammunition. this is something that has been asked of the white
7:06 pm
house press secretary as well as the pentagon spokesperson. and so we now can confirm that the state department saying that there is under consideration another package of military assistance. we know that the u. s. president is having dinner, as well as a meeting today with the joint chiefs of staff as well as his defense secretary, lloyd austin, and as well, lloyd austin, the defense secretary meeting with the polish defense minister. so we suspect that all of this is being discussed in advance of some sort of imminent announcement. again, when that announcement will be made is unclear. but we can confirm that a package is under discussion and will be announced imminently, or whitehouse correspond kimberly algebra live in washington to believe in the function to. germany's foreign minister says that berlin will ramp up aid for ukraine as soon as possible, and we'll provide training. another hot not defined yet capacitor other partners and now supplying armored vehicles. i would like to say he and clearly this is not
7:07 pm
to be for us either him. even if it's sometimes sounds like it in the german debase . yeah. but we have already agree to such deliveries, but we don't have anything available at short. notice that we can now deliver really quickly and immediately then wife to berlin out. is there a steadfastness there for us that step? what more has the german government said, particularly about providing weapons to ukraine? well, the is a increasing criticism on the german government from not sending a heavy weapons to ukraine because that's something specifically asked by ukraine. germany now says that they don't have them at the moment. they have been sending lighter, more defensive weapons to ukraine in the last couple of months. but they say what they now have the military day might need themselves. so the only thing that they now are offering is to pay for weapons. apparently there is
7:08 pm
a list. ukraine can choose from this list, but the ukranian ambassador said that the weapons they really want are not on this list and the he's talking about so specifically 2nd hand tanks from germany, a lap at one tanks have been mentioned and also martyr armored vehicles a basically a company has them an armed supplier, they have said they can prepare them, it takes a few weeks to be sent to you. great. but also the military has them as well and they're not being used. they can be sent now and then they can be replaced later, but the military has also said it's difficult for ukraine to use them because it needs some specific knowledge. so at the moment the government says no, and it has led to criticism not only from the ukrainian ambassador, but also from coalition partners within the german government will feel that germany as a very important country, of course, in germany in europe, should do more to help you crane and it's getting more and more isolated at the
