road mm hm. so there was no way to safely get people out of the city on middle to me because otherwise it just, you need to understand the risks the fighting poses to a humanitarian convoys to the wonderful warm gambler. it's a dangerous undertaking, but the driver still hope they'll be another chance to rescue their fellow countrymen, proven wilson. i'm not afraid any more. there are many of us. we will find a way through the rooms. some 200000 civilians are currently trapped and maria pull the strategically important port. city has been under heavy bombardment, water and electricity remain cut off, and food is running low. just outside keith, more missiles and artillery attacks. ukrainian officials say it's the same picture across the country, but ukraine's vanessia effort was

also hit by missile strikes, prompting president zalinski to repeat his call for swift international action. with zachary, she introduced a no fly zone for all russian rockets. for russian combat aviation for the terrorists introduce a humanitarian safety's own without rockets without balm. and while the landscape plea goes unanswered, ukrainians are doing their best to flee the intense shelling we go. let's go to our correspondent, a conley, who's in keith. nick, let's start with the situation and maria pole where a ceasefire has been broken yet again. well, it's very difficult. understand, and people are now basically in, circled from the north east from the west. the south will see where they're also russian forces. and as you mentioned in your section, there is no end inside. this 2nd attempt has failed to organize some kind of

military convoy. this is very old fashioned warfare going on shilling using weapons from the mid 20th century. it is very difficult to reconstruct to shop for us. the koreans say that it was the russians who decided not to go along with the sci fi agreement. and it's very hard to see how they can actually work out kind of some kind of manageable deal at a time where hundreds of thousands of soldiers are dying every day on both sides without some kind of outside mediation, without the red cross or some other outside to bring these 2 parties to the table, but also to get them to stick to their commitments. i can't really see how this is going to work. the, the be here from key would be that actually russia isn't actually opposed. this is not working out, the, the ukraine would pay, the russians want these kind of military and crisis, but that'll put more pressure on ukraine. democratically elected government to make compromises because they would be more affected by public opinion by the need to prevent human suffering. whereas as the ukrainians would see at the russians

already factored in, this damage their reputation worldwide by attacking ukraine and actually mr. manager and consequences of discontinued fiji marapoo wouldn't add much to that. so that, that is basically the fear here that defeats in russian interests. and that this could go on and now people have been out in medical without internet, without water, without collections in some days now. and the question is, how long can they keep going before things start getting really ugly and people start losing their lives because they're able to get medical treatment there. they need all because you know, hospitals all with electricity. so every 10 situation there and one that is really being susan's being pulled across the country, especially now people across you can no longer able to reach their medical because internet has gone. so very 10 situation in mario poll. you are and keep what's the situation in the city there and the surroundings briefly, if you can where the center cube has still been spared the worst kind of bombing

that we've seen. that city is like it. but it was the, there is fear that the russians are going to try and launch another attempt on present. let's get life. so big fear all strangers of russian sleep regions, that kind of thing. but just 25 kilometers from where i'm here in the western sky of the fighting is really going on and being killed even trying to evacuate, fighting between ukrainian or russian continuing. so this is a very feeble, really, a sense that the world has been going on. you kind of 2014 has now reached the streets of capital here, next to me reporting economy in keith as russia continues as a sold on ukraine, the united states has indicating it is looking into ways for poland to supply fight a debt to ukraine. u. s. secretary of state, anthony lincoln said, american made f sixteens could be sent to poland to replenish it's stock of russian made jets, if also decides to send them to ukraine. pilots in the ukrainian air force are already trained to find the russian acro. let's bring in the

grass, so who is a senior policy fellow at the european council for foreign relations? welcome to d. w. as or so the us is saying poland could possibly supply ukraine with plains. but wouldn't russia see this as nato getting involved in the conflict? well, there's to say that there are actually implicit rules on proxy balls. if you sat to call it like what, that will be, be none. the 2nd, the bliss girls are they have been off right with the soviet union and with the russian federation and supplying weapons. one side we wanted to see, winning is not a violation of poland. would be a party to the rule. if the polish army are to enter ukraine, or if you frame in military would launch attacks from polish territory, both they're almost doing the supply of arms even of complicated or complex arms

like fighter planes, is something that we used to do. and we will do. and also that the russian federation does to waging parties who owned the opposing side of the spectrum in other theaters before. oh, of course they're making noise about it. of course they want to make our public feel insecure about it. but this is part of the game. so germany, for example, and others are supplying ukraine with anti craft aircraft weapons ground to as are you saying that that a will be that that is the same as supplying planes? is that the esther, if the land line the same, they roughly yes, of course, the plane is a much more complex weapon system and is much more effective weapon system than a show. the launched rocket launcher, but it's essentially the same game. remember russia mercenaries flying

makes for a libyan party in the living the civil war of some years ago? did we threaten russia with nuclear? oh, no. oh, it's the same logistically how ah weapons from the west being reaching fighters on the front lines in ukraine. well, some chance of communications always have been and they're not activated for that. i mean for the security not to compromise any of those. i will refrain from making details about there have been repaired on there have been arranged and by various means. del cities are jaundiced thinly brought into the country, are the fastest delivery of went from poland to the, to the front in caucus, within 3 days or so. it is possible to do so. and these weapons also reaching eastern parts of ukraine and an exposed portions of the france to,

for the time being. russia does not have the means and the knowledge to interdict them, and i hope he keeps does away. so with all you've said now, what does that mean? you're not worried that this will could spill into europe further at this stage? no. oh, there are clear cut rules as a set up and we keep them all for the time. as long as the train is standing and fighting, russia is busy fighting ukraine. if ukraine falls, if russia starts to install a puppet regime, if russia starts to ramp up the repression against the ukrainian population who does not. and probably will not accept this puppet regime that things might get harder because as be effort put in during the coming days. and as we have actually heard booting during the past 20 years, everybody who arises up to put him into a in territories he things in our head is attributed by him as kind of see

agents or oh, western making. so then if you train falls, he will of course, make us responsible for whatever is going wrong now. and might use military force or military threats to force us to. and i put this under quotation mark because it will be just another horrendous line. refrain from interfering in his domestic affairs, but as long as you train is standing, as long as those organized resistance from an organized ukrainian state, russia is busy destroying that, and they're not making all too much progress on that road. so these weapons deliveries, there are no shown the ukrainian interest in our interest as well because we want ukraine to survive as a sovereign and defensible country. and this is basically what this war is all about. political analyst, gustavo dressel,

thank you very much for your insights. thank you very much. has a look now. as some other developments in the conflict. the united nations nuclear watchdog says it's deeply concerned that communications have been disrupted at a c ukrainian nuclear power plant. russian soldiers took the upper reach your facility on friday after shelling it and starting a fire and have turned off is internet and telephone lines. the agency says reliable communications are critical to safety. security forces in russia have detained more than 4000 annual protesters in demonstrations across the country. that's according to an independent protest monitor. russian police want that organizers and participants of legal demonstrations could face charges. the united nation says more than 1500000 people have fled ukraine. it described the exit is as the fastest growing refugee crisis in europe since world war 2 more than

a 1000000 people have crossed into poland alone. a small arrival hum has formed here in front of the former shopping center in the polish town of chan. marshall. these volunteers are welcoming ukrainian refugees with warm drinks, food, water, and an array of donations. many of the ukrainians arriving here are traumatized. having witnessed the war 1st hand, or le auto, or as really they bombed our house, we and we were practically you left homeless. now live to leave her live for thou. we came here to get help for my you. my husband stayed in ukraine to fight for us. so graham, you said i thought i came here with my daughter to keep ourselves safe on with logic or what, but he actually later we will return having the vinyl lost or brutal to them. we inside the shopping center, people can rest warm up and decide what they want to do next. some have

relatives in poland and other countries bordering ukraine. free buses wait outside to take them to various destinations across europe. but many want to stay close spine. they live in fear for those who have been left behind and ukraine, and her wool will soon be over. can fail in red. i'm so sad. i miss my family. my father and my dad. are they still in ukraine? yes. my grand migrant baron. my mom. my sister's ale lay, i love my pantry and i went, so go back and sir,

i have one says that the war need to, to stop. we need to stop this war. you watching d. w. news live from berlin. ah, continued coverage continues in a minute. don't go with every detail for us and for our planet. global ideas is on its way to bring you more conservation. how do we make cities greener? how can we protect habitat? we can make a difference. global ideas, the environmental series in the $3000.00 on t w and online happiness is for everyone. human penises are very different from

primates. penises, we have a totally ridiculous romanticized view of nature, a there. and david and this is climate change, regulate sex, who happiness in 3 books. you'll get smarter for pre d. w books on you to women across the globe have less access to the internet than men. and online content is primarily authored and edited by men. most device on app designers are men to all this contribution to digital inequality. today i'm shift we're covering the digital gender cap. ah. according to the 2021 inclusive internet index, 14 percent more men have internet access than women across the globe. in other words,

men are 40 percent more able to educate themselves to business online and keep in touch with others. not exactly what you would call gender equality. and yet it's one the 17 goals the united nations has set to achieve sustainable development for flight. but the digital gender gap isn't the same everywhere in europe. internet access isn't a problem any more, but the gap between men and women programmers is enormous. in germany, for instance, 4 times as many men as women are programmers, but women in the global south phase, the more existential problem. many women there do not have smartphones or can't afford to go online. in india, a group of women is confronting these obstacles and demanding greater digital inclusion. oh with kathy, i'm navy that google pulling july, avi ne delegate i given a zag was now and then i saw some idea. he was good made it. i'm now look visit

a diet using a mobile phone is still a far off reality for most women in india, only $1.00 and $4.00 own a smartphone, whereas nearly half all the men do without one accessing the internet becomes near impossible. in rule india, 3 quarters of women have never been online at all. indian economist agenda expert, we tele, nicole warms that women are missing out on professional opportunities. we all live on line and you're seeing that if women don't have access to that device, then women are not in this economy. and that's what's important, isn't there to have women be bought of girls. india is not an isolated case across large parts of the world, men are more likely to get online with their phones than women. this is especially true in south asia and sub saharan africa, where the mobo internet gap is over a 3rd. one reason for this gender divide is affordability. women tend to and less

money than men, and often can't chill to the costs of a smartphone or internet data. digital illiteracy is another huddle older and less educated. women often don't know how to use a phone, go online or open an application. another reason gender stereotypes so far as driving them digital to buy one is of course, social norms are the most important. one. how a woman fence dying interacting with a one way she speaking don't wish, not speaking, don't what does she think the standard been wanted on a whole and, and therefore that is a lot of oversight from me. a relatives, well missions required in the usage of the form, and this makes the initiatives to familiarize women with digital technology all the more important buddy big, but then add them up, but i'm getting it though awful. god,

the good news. the gap between men and women who access the internet with their fence is slowly closing with phones becoming cheaper and cheaper women in south asia, especially the started to go online. they are leading a global trend, but inequality doesn't stop at the actual access to smartphones. there's also their programming and design. go ahead and pick up your smartphone. can you easily use it with just one hand? if so you're most likely a man. and even more importantly, do you have a convenient place to put it away? it certainly doesn't fit into my pants pocket, and unfortunately, using smartphones also reveals problems for gender equality. if you unlock your smartphone, you'll immediately see one thing maps designed by men. google maps has no option to suggest the safest route. an important feature for women at night, and digital assistants are usually female by default. oh, why?

probably because 9 out of 10 software designers are men. but things are changing. and increasing number of women are working as designers and programmers, and their organizing to haven't ever greater impact on technological development. ladies that you x is one of the top tech design organizations run by women. and stephanie k, go from berlin, is one of them. she is shocked how even tech companies like apple have given female users so little thought for so long echo had if the apple health that was launched in 2014 and 15 and almost every one knows it at lunch, it could measure nearly everything, steps, nutrition, but one thing found by the wayside, women's health, they just overlooked that, hold on tight, some type of ma for guessing. but such decisions often are not part of a deliberate strategy. is a manual thing. it may be just doesn't occur to these men. you know, if the team were more heterogeneous that might help prevent this from happening,

the last wish person would own it took apple a year to respond to women's protests. after that, a period tracker was added to the app. but fem tech is an increasingly successful business model. the sector focused on women's health is forecast to hit the 50000000000 euro mark in the next 5 years. that's 3 times the size it was in 2020 eda tin invented the ap clue. used to monitor women menstrual cycles, she played a major role in coining the word sam tech. a term meant to appeal to mail investors to it at 10 is also one of the few women to have her own wikipedia article. and it even has a photo. she is fortunate because less than a quarter of all biographies on wikipedia are on women. but the women are rarely seen as europe than 20 percent of the articles include photos,

the organization whose knowledge isn't satisfied with this. there, advocating for women to be better represented on wikipedia, including with photos. in the past years, over 15000 images have been uploaded as part of the campaign, visible wiki women. and that's an important step according to an a c. s in gupta, a co founder of whose knowledge for over 15 years, indian author honest. so yes and gupta has been helping the online encyclopedia gro, and she also works for with the media, the charity that runs wikipedia. but she's a harsh critic too, and demands for efforts to be made to close the gender gap on wikipedia. what is known as the gender gap is essentially 2 things. one that there is a content gap around issues related to women, gender nonconforming, non boundary folks on wikipedia. and secondly, that as a contribute

a gap. so for instance, only one in 10 editors is estimated to self identifies female all non bind. these 2 factors play a significant role in the fact that wikipedia content stems largely from men in north america and europe. but why are women less active on wikipedia? there are various reasons, a considerable one is time. women simply have less time to sit at the computer because the division of labor prevailing in many patriarchal or once patriarchal societies is also present in the digital world. and there's another reason. wikipedia works like any enlightenment driven encyclopedia does. it expects to have reliable sources, like books or journal articles, a well known newspapers. but all of these things are predicated on publishing own

gender gap. and so the existing gender gap is replicated in the digital world. one example of this is canadian physicist donna strickland, winner of the 2018 nobel prize in physics at the time she did not yet have a wikipedia article. even despite having forged a 30 year career and science and on a certain is a wired north american which improves her arts, have been visible according to an a 3 i single bda. there's also an inter, fictional gender gaps, not just women being under represented, but of course, black and brown, women, women from the global south, indigenous women. and so multiple marginalization take place through the gender gap . and these disadvantages and terms of perception equal opportunities and representations aren't limited to humans. we're even passing it on to artificial intelligence, which replicates humans inequalities. for instance, when it comes to image recognition systems controlled by algorithms. experiments

have shown that cloud services offered by microsoft and ibm are great at recognizing white men, but struggle the most with black women. so the discrimination is twofold. growth racial and gender based a test carried out using google's image recognition software on photos of us. members of congress showed that photos of female politicians were assigned physical characteristics 3 times as often as their male colleagues. the 2 top labels for men were business, person and official. while photos of women were usually labeled, chin, or smile. and the difficulties don't stop there. smart speakers like amazon echo google assistant or apple. siri are trained using voice recording, spanning high women's voices and deep mailbox. but since fewer women's voices are used to train these speaking a i assistance, they have

a harder time understanding female voices. another problem is that these devices are set to speak with a woman's voice by default, once in california begins issuing state ideas. when the 3rd general rado becomes 5th state to allow their gender on licenses in 2019 unesco report shows that this can have real life consequences. alexa, turn off the ones, okay. given orders to a seemingly female assistant could perpetuate the cliche that it's easier to tell a woman what to do than a man. but there's help in sight. like the gender neutral voice assistant q from denmark. hi, i'm q. the world's 1st gentlest voice assistant. what a great idea, why do digital voice assistance has to be men or women anyway? they're just machines. and we should look at the digital world through a more diverse lance. whether it comes through design, programming, or content,

take the dating at bumble, developed by women and men for old genders. it's founder, whitney wolf, hurt, wanted online, dating to be safer for women, and on board, they always have to make the 1st move. her idea made whitney wolf hurt the youngest female self med billionaire in the world and 2021. this shows that the digital gender gap is narrowing. but especially in the regions that have been hardest hit by gender inequality, things really need to speed up. what's your take on it? where do you see the greatest need for improvement? should have the message on youtube or at the w dot com. take care and see your next . mm. ah ah.
