ah, so russian president vladimir putin is warned that moscow will respond to the west with more than just tanks. he was marking 80 years since the world war 2 battle of stalingrad. putin condemned jeremy's decision to supply key with leopard to battle tanks. he said that russia would be victorious in ukraine, kicked up jagger with your eyepiece, kissed crana. those who are dragging european countries, including germany, into a new war with russia and irresponsibly talking about it as a done deal. those who expect to win against russia on the battlefield. they apparently don't understand their modern war with russia will be completely different. we are not sending our tanks to their borders, but we have what it takes to respond. they ran it and using military hardware will not be the end of it yet. everyone has to understand this well in east and ukraine . the search for survivors continues after a russian missile had an apartment building in the city of cramp tossed. at least 3

people were killed. but other 20 were wounded. carmen toss cuz in the denette screech and were russian and its allied fighters are battling for control. for temper to meet with her. but this is the center of the city. only civilians live here, which is why any attempts to justify this are futile. at the very least, robert rupert or la costa natasha butler, who's falling. those developments from cave and natasha. first of all, tell us more about this residential building. now, residential ad building here in cravat, tall, skinny east of ukraine happen wednesday night, quite late. so people were at home. and the damage from that russian cruise missiles slammed into the building also, or damaging other buildings in the area. so a real scene of devastation, bear rescues have been working throughout the night throughout the day. and now it is night here again, you can see it's very dark,

but they are continuing to see if they can find any survivors. clearly, it is not very easy for them. they're working difficult conditions, not only with the doc. it also power outages. so that means it's really not many, or there's not much electric or light, not much electricity, the cold, the rubble, they say that at least 3 people have been killed and many others have been injured . and the mayor zalinski said this is just another attack that happens in ukraine. he said, almost on a daily basis of really desperate and sad scene. indeed. meanwhile, his defense minister here and keith is warning that russia could be planning a new offensive in the coming weeks. possibly around that february 24th i anniversary of the war when russia 1st invaded ukraine. and natasha in cave, where you are a ukraine's president blood amid zalinski met you officials to urge for more sanctions on russia. and some of those measures are imminent to day russia is

paying a heavy price as our sanctions are you eroding its economy, throwing it back by a generation. the price cap on crude oil already costs russia around $160000000.00 euros a day. and we will keep on turning up the pressure further. we will introduce with our g 7 partners and additional price come on russian petroleum products. and by the 24th of february, exactly one year since the invasion started, we aim to have the 10th package of sanctions in place to speedily replace gazelle dang. as when she does, that is the common to ask for the european union is to reduce russia's ability to bypass the sanctions. the sooner this is achieved, the closer we will get to the defeat of russia's aggression. we have noticed that the pace of sanctions has slowed down a bit while the terrace state has speeded, adapting to sanctions. it is worth to catch up and fix it east. we believe we can

do it or isn't in touch her what else was discuss as well as those sanctions, which obviously would be good news of full ukraine or the 2 leaders discuss a number of issues that they'll look at at this summit. i here in t on friday between the u and ukraine, they thought about ukraine's future membership prospects of the you. ukraine wants to be a member of the european union. it has already had its candidacy approved by or the block that happened in june. but the accession process is likely to be very long. now ukraine would like that to be speeded up, but there are a number of e u. member states that say that ukraine still has a lot of criteria many conditions that it would have to fill before it would become a full member anytime soon. so we could be looking at many years. indeed. they also talked about reconstruction, something so important to ukraine. you saw those pictures there and kramer tours of

that apartment block of that area where there are scenes like that across at ukraine buildings, infrastructure roads, the damage that need to be rebuilt. the e u says that it will probably bled about a $1000000000.00 in order to help ukraine rebuild something that's gonna take a lot more money and a long time in future, on the outskirts of keys, valentina watches, as builders repair her home, it was damaged by shelling when russian forces occupied the town last year and experience, she says was worse than living through world war 2. the common that they should that the polluters weekly. everything was destroyed. the tv, so for clothes. i couldn't stay. so i went to my neighbors basement. we spent weeks there, there were explosions nice and day russians and ukrainians firing. i don't know how i survived. the house now has new windows,

and soon the roof will be finished. valentina sweeps up shavings from the timber to fuel her burner. butcher's town council, his financing reconstruction in this neighbourhood, one of many districts pounded my russian artillery. nearly every house in the street has been damaged and it's a similar picture in so many parts of ukraine. it is clear, the rebuilding the country is going to say yes and cost a lot of money as the war continues in ukraine. so does the destruction mangled infrastructure and bombarded buildings. and now part of the landscape, some people are forced to survive in what's left of their homes. keep estimates that reconstruction will cost at least $350000000000.00. the e u has an idea about how it could be funded. ukraine will rebuilt, and dentist must be jump, inserted. we are fully frozen over 300000000000 euros professional sets. i'm

strongly convinced these shoots in this will be useful for you transfer transfer trin. oh, not all you members are convinced about using frozen russian assets for ukraine's reconstruction. but some say it would be a form of justice making moscow pay to rebuild what it has destroyed. even the low amount of money could ever fully restore people shattered lives. well as clearly, lot to discuss in these sir, you ukraine, some aides, but the fact that it is taking place in keith is highly symbolic. this is really the european union showing that a sans beside her beside keep beside ukraine side by side even as the war rages on . natasha, thanks that and hush boulevard in cave support for sending heavy weapons to ukraine,

appears to be waving in germany. poll shows that some fear that sending leopard tanks will lead to an escalation of the war. so rason reports now from berlin. protests as in berlin rallying again, sending petal tags to ukraine. these are the v. we were the ones who for to old was which we basically caused, and they want to drag us into this will be done. i totally do not understand that. but of course, it is possible that russia will attack, can nieto country. and then there would be a 3rd war war, and i'm really against all this because we live in fear of it. so school published this week show support for sending heavy weapons like lap to tanks is down to 48 percent compared to 55, a few months ago. 3 quarters of those poles take. they don't want germany to be militarily involved. fast the 5th and became deeply rooted in germany after world war 2 in the mid 1900. forty's, the generations who grew up since then are familiar with the slogan,

no more war for them, sending heavy weapons to an active force own it's seen as a huge break with the fast and the wrong strategy. that is why the countries foreign minister calls quite a shock last week. yes, we are fighting a war against russia and not again argue that statement is fatal and it is wrong because of our history. a german foreign minister will never say such a thing. our constitution says germany can never again go to war, farms out the road, books about peace with the former soviet leader mikhail. gorbachev ended delama. he took part in large peace rallies in the 1980s against nuclear. and like many germans believed that his country would never be involved in a military conflict again. but the war in ukraine cross a large dilemma for the pacifist. have him as a kind of us, i have always said no weapons. but if

a neighbor like ukraine is so aggressively attacked like has done, and my neighbor asks for help, even with weapons. i can't close my years. but as a pacifist, i also say stop this war. we need to negotiate also with pollutants. i call it and i l. purchase, business or realistic. passive isn't, he's not the only one conflict it. the war has polarized opinion between dos, calling for peace and those who want more weapons for ukraine. it shows how germany struggles with both its dark past and dark reality at its door step, step fast and al jazeera in berlin. now the united states is expanding its military footprints in the philippines that move, that could provide a strategic advantage against china. it will now have access to for new sites and, and increase presence at other bases. beijing is warned, the plan will further aggravate tensions in the south. china sea claims many islands in the area as part of its territory, including taiwan. but we, la, has this report says president ferdinand marcus junior took off his 7 months ago.

row. one of the bigger and long standing crisis is the territorial dispute between manila and b. j in the south china sea. although an international ruling in 2016, invalidated china's best claims. the asia giant has built artificial islands and continues to encroach on philippine waters. that and china is threat to take tie one by force of critics fearing a bigger u. s. military presses will serve more as an irritant rather than a deterrent. we think that this move by the united states philippine government will further escalate pensions in the west philippine sea in the south china sea, as well as the area region by one. and now we do not want the means to be part of ha, ha, one thing former president would, we could to turn. they wanted to scrap the agreement that allows the joint military drills between the philippines and the us. but under his successor,
