finally, they gave up and went by me on my side with a sewing machine. so and i suppose was more appropriate for those than writing them . and now i want to reach out to those woman back home for bone to buy their duties and social rules. and inform them about their basic rights. my name is the about the home and i work with this is dw news life from berlin, more lethal aid on its way to ukraine as

a u. s. and its allies to send a defensive weapons to care of germany, faces grow in criticism for refusing to help ukraine as tens of thousands of russian troops prepare for a possible you invasion. also coming up, nigeria, i in blustering form, has to knock out stage, gets on the way the africa couple of nations. we talked to our correspondent in lagos, to catch the mood before the big game against tenicia. ah, i am eddie micah junior and you are welcome to the program. military aid is arriving in kiev from the u. s. poland. britain and about democracies as ukraine phases, the threat of the possible new innovation by russia. one country so far, refusing to help you train is germany. and it's coming on the pressure from its allies to take a stand as russia masses. its forces along the grains bought us moscow insist house,

no plans to launch on a talk to the russian military flexing its muscles in the worn at region bordering ukraine. moscow denies its planning and invasion, but with this slick video released by its defense ministry, it at least wants to send the message that it's ready to fight. there is real concern in the region about russia's motives. russian troops are now positioned in bella, rues, all along russia's border to crane and our mast in eastern ukraine, where fighting has been ongoing for years. further to the north, the baltic states of estonia, latvia and lithuania, are promising to support ukraine with shipments of weaponry and military support. arguing that diplomacy alone can't prevent an armed conflict.

aggressiveness, who said the 1st letter guide him was the aggressor always weighed impossible. losses also use and likely damage also i did in my, i think i had a strong state or capable of defending itself for the steve is really the only way in to increase the chances of a peaceful resolution. oh, really me there plus years to be just was that it however, it's a principle of deterrence not endorsed by germany, which has disappointed kiya by refusing to supply weaponry to crane. because now off the cuff comments by germany's naval chief have added more fuel to the diplomatic fire chi of him shown by on a visit to india, said russian president, vladimir putin probably deserve respect. and that the crimean peninsula annexed by russia would not return to ukraine. just looking to somebody who could you call me up in los is go look um this is this effect. uh,

we have to do that. oh oh, the go issues ah, actually squished you most. these remarks have now cost him his job, and the fo paw has added to the misgivings in kiev over germany stance on ukraine. but with the uncertainty looming, ukraine has been assured that it doesn't stand alone. the u. k. sent anti tank missiles earlier this week, and the 1st delivery of u. s. military supplies has already touched down. meanwhile, residents in kiev formed a human chain in celebration of ukraine's national unity day. hoping that opposing sides can still come together and hold on to their stated goal of a diplomatic solution. oh, wow. that's bring indeed of ye correspondent of my t as burlingame who joins us funky of mother. yes. tell us exactly what has been

provided and what this means for the conflict now. whereas ukraine is now procuring mostly light weapons, anti tank missiles, also systems to detect our cheerily artillery positions on the other side. and it has been procuring jones everything that might be needed in the case of a land invasion by tanks and by, by troops are from the other side. there is a long shopping list in ukraine, of other systems of more complicated, more sophisticated systems. but this is not the priority right now, they would need to years to build vessels for example, and they would need additional training. so right now ukraine is trying to my everything that can be used against the tank invasion. now, while tensions are being diffused, the u. k says that kremlin is trying to install pro ration leadership in ukraine.

what has the reaction been to this accusation? well, this, this or the, the u. k. has released the list of 5 names that russia considers her to install somehow here and key of as a proxy government, but it has provided no additional information. so this communication raises more questions than it does answer and a we, we do absolutely not. know what the scenario is that the, that the ukraine u. k. services have intercepted here. are these people who are in line for a possible government? if russia would invade ukraine? are they planning to do something here behind the lines? what is clear, however, is that a popular uprising is probably not going to bring these people into positions. they are form officials from a government that has been housed it in 2014 by the people. 4 of them have fled to

russia and they're mostly very unpopular here in ukraine. and meanwhile, in germany there's also been controversy about comments made by the countries now for my navy chief, our s k. every act into that well, one could say that these remarks by the navy chief, has some are tipped emotions over the top here, has long, long been unhappy with germany for 2 reasons. one is the north gym to pipeline that is seen here as a weakening ukraine's position by circumventing it's in terms of gas deliveries to europe. and the other thing that key of this unhappy about is germany is refusal to provide weapons to ukraine. and not only to sell weapons on its own, but also blocking weapons from other countries. for example, the baltic states, one to re sell weapons that they once procured in germany,

to ukraine, and germany has so far, not given green light for these trans actions. so germany, while a voicing support for ukraine, is accused here of not standing to its words, dw correspondent, my the as bellinger reporting from kia, thank you. the border between poland and bella. ruth has been in the headlines for months now. since those scenes went around the world of migrants, stranded in bella, luce and desperate to cross into poland, which is a you territory. now pull on plans to build a wall to replace the raise a wire fence between the 2 countries. it's a mr. stop dose. illegal crossings by undocumented migrant residents of the ancient be of asia forest. this links and these walls caught on camera traps at the end of last year. this 600 year old forest is home to an

build the wall with consideration of the natural environment. benji brought up with a quest is, goes on zillow. sure, the risk back in the forest crystal says his institute has provided the government with a plan for wildlife pathways through the rule to prevent the division of animal populations . and he hopes it will be followed. let's now look at some more stories making headlines around a wild. heavy gun fire has the wrong out from several military backs on the prison and looking at fossils capital. they do go as messages circulate and social media, more gunshots. any possible military. cool. the defense minister says the president of the country has not been detained. a fire the popular night club in the communion capital. yeah. only has killed at least 16 people authority see the blaze. it spread to one area where cook and gas was being stored, triggering loud explosions. the tragedy comes as cameroon hose,
