nato defense ministers meet in brussels to discuss russia and weapon shipments the ukraine. ah, it's great to have you with us. i'm several venue. this is l 0. live from also coming up the day, hundreds of thousands made homeless and at least 500 people are dead and the jury is worst flooding in a decade. featuring on the brink, the international community and 5th government reform is the only way out of lebanon's economic crisis and wildlife experts, one about the widespread loss of bio diversity as a report reveals a steep decline and global animal population. ah. so it's the final day of nato meetings with defense ministers discussing how to

best deal with moscow and better arm ukraine. well, nato member, germany sent the 1st a for promise to air defense systems to keep on wednesday. it says it's the most modern weapon in his possession and will improve ukraine's rate of shooting down russian cruise missiles. on the same day, french president demanded michel promise to send air defense systems and radars to help protect and protect against russian drone attacks. meanwhile, russian president vladimir putin is at a summit and can't extend trying to gain more support for russia from the region. and the un general assembly has voted overwhelmingly to condemn russia's move to an exports of ukraine, a vote which is being seen as largely symbolic. right, let's talk the huddle hamid our correspondence. she is in keep order. i wonder. do ukrainians pay any attention to what's going on at the un general assembly? do they care? how is that boat going to sit with them?

well, president zalinski said it was a historical vote, but i mean when it comes to un resolutions had been already to un resolutions about the annexation of me out back one back in 2014, which for, for the territorial integrity of these grade, one in 2020, which called really for the withdrawal of old russian to some ukraine and nothing happened. i think if you speak to the wider ukrainian public, they are more concerned about the war about how it's going. they probably are as concerned as the government about did. could you, asian of a weapon, supplies to wind is war and to regain those territories that russia claims it has a next meaning. does 4 regions of new guns don't yet separate jack and so, and i think those are the main concerns at the moment here, especially that the for example, if you look over the past 24 hours, the ukrainian ukraine says that russia has hates more than 40 settlements

around the country. ukraine also hits back and says it has drug a more than 30 russian positions. but really, the main concern here is how to protect the cities that a big data coming up under air strides more and more often those as strikes and some of them do hit a critical infrastructure, but many heads also, residential buildings, especially in places, legs that bridge i have been that have been hammered, really, i would say over the past 2 weeks or so. so when it comes to ukraine is when it comes to that concerns. i think that's what they're more worried about. and they certainly probably would look with more interest in what's happening in brussels and what's happening among the ukrainian content group. if the pledge of weapons is gonna continue. because everybody does realize that this voice lol and these

weapons are certainly becoming may be a bit of a burden on the donor countries. yeah, and those weapons deliveries may end up deciding the fate of this war. her bill hamid reporting live from keith. thank you very much. european union energy ministers have again failed to agree measures to tackle high gas prices. a 15 member states want the price of wholesale gas to be kept across the block, but others prefer different strategies, including a limit on gas consumption and subsidy packages for businesses and consumers. the european commissions proposals are due to be unveiled next week. dominic cane has been following the meeting from berlin. the interesting thing coming from this meeting is the unity of purpose that pretty much everyone involved in the meeting said that they wanted to bring to this problem. they all want to try to resolve the issue. they want something to take forward. the european commission says it has proposals to do precisely that. we will propose and our proposal an 18th tougher
