it followed 42 buses and 500 private cars to the collision. and we know that the, like these hours one hour ago, they had to reach a pretty sure that was a 2 day operation. but unfortunately, we still don't have access to it. but let me just a reminder of viewers this week of the office of the ukrainian red cross. it was hit by a molotov cocktail. i mean, it is very dangerous for you and your organization to do the work that you're trying to do. talk to us about how important it is that people realize, even in a war zone, that the red cross is impartial and neutral. well, it's not the only case in our group in the office when he'd buy the modem. but our offices are in many parts of ukraine where hostilities,

where we are currently strong phase of the student is the architect our, our transport is attacked and we as start working on t as artic. this is like that this fear only in word conditions now, but a new trinity and we're here to this is something important for us because we have to be neutral in order to be able to cross for instance, they don't last in order to get to but just put 2 other encircled cities and to bring out military aid, we are, the size is everywhere and i was going to use the stick to this on the mental principle. it grows, you know, a lady and we been in touch with you and this, this more imminent, it's personal to you. you and your family left when the showing began in keven in early march, and you were 8 months pregnant at the time. just tell us, i mean,

thank you. thank you very much. russian troops have reportedly withdrawn from the decommissioned tr noble nuclear power plant in northern ukraine, and there are reports that some soldiers were showing signs of radiation sickness. but you wins. nuclear watchdog has not said whether or not russian forces were exposed to high levels of radiation. while they occupied the facility weeks off to seizing control of the decommissioned to enable nuclear power plant. russian forces a said to have left the area ukrainian authorities of accused moscow of acting recklessly wall in control of the site of the world's worst nuclear accident. seen here in archive footage, rush ha, behaves irresponsibly internal them on all accounts. for all my not allowing the personnel of the station to perform their functions in humana ah, to digging trenches in the contaminated areas. ukraine,

nuclear agencies has digging those trenches and staring up radioactive dust by driving heavy vehicles and the toxic exclusions own contributed to rushes. withdrawal off to soldiers were exposed to high doses of radiation. the international atomic energy agency said that it hadn't been able to confirm the ukrainian claims, but welcomed rushes withdrawal. we see this, of course, as a step in the right direction. we are going to be there very, very soon, because that he's at inter, an organ that he's a lot of work to be done or who is new. while the stations returned, ukrainian control may have few implications in the fight against russia's invasion . it should allow or turn to normality at the sight, allowing workers to resume the long task of rendering chernobyl safe for future generations. and here's a quick look now at some of the other stories related to the war in ukraine. your russia has announced that it will not immediately turn off gas supplies to europe.

criminal justice, payments and rules on deliveries are due in mid april. and again, in may, european importers have refused to agree to these terms on russia. foreign minister, 2nd elaborate, has met with his indian counterpart in new delhi as the to seek to protect military and trade ties between their countries. despite the war in ukraine, india has abstained and un resolutions against russia and continues to buy oil and weapons from moscow. german prosecutors say that they charged a former german military reserve officer with spine for moscow. they say that he was in contact with watch and intelligent services from 2014 to 2020. and that he provided information about the bonus, fair civil defense, and the impact on german companies of e. u. sanctions against russia. germany has approved the sale of 58 tangs from a check company to ukraine. the tanks originally belonged to the east german

military and the defense ministry here in berlin. today it said that a permit had been issued for the vehicles which are equipped with cannon and machine guns. they were acquired by the buddhist fair after german reunification in the 1900 ninety's. and then later sold to the check company, a so called in that use clause means that military hardware can be sold to 3rd parties with berlin's approval. by the mere clear code, the former boxing will championed and brother of keith's mare. the tale is here in berlin for talks with german political leaders. he met with economy minister robert harvey on thursday, and he spoke with chance. her old lot, sholtes and foreign minister angelina barber to day let go, was appealing for more german support for ukraine, including economic, military and humanitarian. a growth in financing. we need to be supported with runs limbs, living foods, dish with medicine, and medicaid with wetlands,

coo broken vaughn as understood. so we need russia to be isolated. it is a li, wrong isolated economically, isn't it soon? because loose every fence lead a spanish to buy gas is used for wetlands that are killing our children with you've often for women with our madelyn, our civilians kinda loser frowns, remain those. it's who listen. was a day the european union warned china not to help russia wage war on ukraine or side step western sanctions. it came during the 1st summit between the you and china in 2 years. and it comes with beijing, giving russia political backing and refusing to condemn the invasion of ukraine. it was the 1st summit between the e, you and china, in 2 years. the goal assurances that china won't arm russia or help moscow

evade western economic sanctions. european commission president or sla fonder lion said afterward, she had made an appeal based on simple math. let me remind you that every day china and the european union trade, almost 2000000000 euros worth of goods and services. and in competition, trade between china and russia is only $300.00, some $330000000.00 euros per day. so, prolongation of the war and the disruption it brings to the world economy is therefore in no one's interests, certainly not in china. china has refused to condemn russia for invading ukraine. in fact, hours before the summit with brussels, a spokesperson for china's ministry of foreign affairs called the u. s. the culprit and leading instigator of the ukraine crisis for its role and nato's expansion since the cold war and the president, she jin ping was more subtle when addressing the

e. u officials long day china has maintained the consistency and continuity of its e u policy. we hope that you can form its own perception of china adopt and independent china policy and work with us for the study and sustain development of china. you relations goshen, where she rushes. war has brought the you closer together and shown how far away other powers, such as china are on foreign policy. if a moral the summer now we want to go to brussels or correspondent barrett reagan. he's been covering this forest good evening to you, baron. so the question is, has the european union succeeded in getting china to commit to not helping russia in its war against ukraine? no, the you was only able to make its case sir, during the summit, but got no concrete answers from president she in bridging the,

you demanded that the china should join the you in the west in sanctions against the aggressor, russia, or at least and circumvent the sanctions but to president, she answered with a kind of a counter proposal. he said that you should detach from the close ally united states and judge china more independently. so no progress here. china is leaning towards russia. that's very clear. chinese state broadcaster cctv is reporting that beijing plans to push for peace thoughts between ukraine and russia in and i'm quoting here its own way. do we know what that means for prime minister lee did not elaborate on that peeve. was talking about that more in general terms about a piece of the china was always looking for and negotiations, but no concrete proposals. the you, on the other hand, demand that the china should use it, its influence on russia,

because it has influence on russia that you said, and it should a, here to its responsibility as a member of the un security council. so it's not clear actually what china will do in the next days, or he w reagan, the latest and brussels barrett. thank you. well, the russian public is getting only a limited picture of what is happening in ukraine. still many people know enough to know that they want to leave the country, particularly highly skilled workers in the tech sector alone. it's estimated that up to $70000.00 specialists have already left russia in search of greener job pastures elsewhere with many more expected to follow. it's his neighbourhood and his subway station, but maybe not for long for constantine or snows in his mid fifties, he's been developing a smartphone app for a major russian bank. however, he is skeptical now about his future in the country, and i see as the co rocher is coating itself off from the outside world. and i don't want that boy, i'd like to breathe free and see the whole world to read introduced. mew,

constantino snows doesn't know yet, which country he'll go to. it might be israel or germany, his wife ayesha, a translator has her wishlist, the 2 children should come. also, constantine is already taking a german language course with his daughter. ish play here ish wish they had deutsche as of select? i think the couple doubts that they'd be coming back soon. yeah. have you been to my local day years? oh, close them. i feel sorry for my country. yeah. it hurts me that the future that i had imagined for myself is being taken away. i always liked to travel, but i always loved my country. if they're going to be working that young you watching video. i don't really believe that russia would develop further see of which i fear that all this will take a very long time and i probably won't return to russia any more. may have been, my russia is deep inside of me. my yacht. i see a uh huh. romania,

moscow's economy can already feel the effects of young i. t specialists leaving the country. experts say that quality will sink because well educated programmers have left. international firms are especially relocating jobs away from russia. who must, who, if you the 1st mass x, this was in the 1st week of march, but it was a heavy blow considering these good people had acquired years of expertise has come on because it's come on different communicable convincing. now the russian state wants to jump in with support. this expert said that there would be new jobs for programmers. and thus the positive effects caused by sanctions from the west. yet, the congressman, it's always like this in russia who's a good 1st. everything looks bad with that new, but it's really a new challenge and an opportunity for new business ideas. however, konstantin austin or doesn't want to be in that kind of a working environment. he's gathering his documents together in order to also be able to work legally abroad. he hopes it's not too late for him to emigrate

somewhere, handled. she wanted everything as possible, maybe would want to leave, but then would be stopped. his russia changed in an instant. many people share the opinion that things will get even darker in the country. and here's a quick look now at some of the other stores we're following for you. the turkish governments has agreed to request. an est amboy court transfer to saudi arabia, the trial, a 26 salty suspects. over the murder, a journalist, jamal car shogi. shogi was a leading critic of saudi arabia's crown prince mohammed ben salman. he was murdered at the saw, the consulate assemble back in 2018 mid rights group, say the fear, transferring the case could enable a cover leads in the u. k. a begun handing out fines to people who attended parties in downing street during coven by t lockdown. foreign minister boards, johnson's office says it will provide an update if johnson himself received lighting of fi function, the prime minister has faced pressure to resign over the scandal, which as

a come to be known as b hardy gate pressure. frances has apologized to canada's indigenous community for what he called the deplorable abuse that they suffered. room in residential schools run by the catholic church. more than a 150000 of canada's indigenous children are forced to attend state funded christian schools in the 19th and 20th century football news now and the grid stage draw for this year's world cup in could tar took place on friday evening. tom, you know, from the w sports is here to take us through the main, talking points to tom, who are the winners and the losers of today's draw. so in terms of the winners, there are certainly a couple of teams who i think will be feeling pretty pleased with how the draw turned out for them. one of those teams is england. they were drawn in group b, alongside the usa,

iran and the european payoff. now the european play is a spot among the 30 to this, yet to be allocated that place will be taken by either way, o's, scotland, or ukraine. so potentially, a british housed arby. they're on the cars for england, but whatever happens and whoever takes that spot, i think they'll be looking at that group and saying, you know, there are no major woke up heavy weights that might make life very tough for them in group be. so i think they'll be pleased with how things turned out. and in group d, the world cup holders, france, beginning a defense of their tie to have been drawn alongside denmark, tunisia, and the 1st international play off. now that place will be taken by either the united arab emirates, australia, or peru. now obviously denmark where you are p and championship semi finalists just last year. so that not a team to be underestimated. but again, i think for france, they'll be looking at that with, you know, in a similar vein to the way the england will be sizing up their group and thinking

that the task that should be manageable in terms of the loses. i think it's pretty difficult this time to account a kind of group of death. i think the cd mechanism seems to have done a fairly good job. most of the groups look very evenly matched. so yes, certainly, and assigned to them. what about the german team? what do their pro prospects look like? so germany are in group 8 now they've been drawn alongside japan, spain and the 2nd international playoff in group a. so that price will be taken by either costa rica or new zealand. now again, i think this is kind of similar to group b and d that we've just gone through. you know, certainly a strong group for germany, not an impossible task. now japan are of course a solid team with good woke up pedigree, costa rica, and new zealand, the event, one of the international playoff. not necessarily the biggest world cup titans, spain, obviously, really among the world's best. they were, of course, also semi finalists at euro 2020 and the last one that they played against germany,

they actually beat him 6 nail in seville. but it has to be said that was at the end of the him live era. and really back then germany were out of ideas. they didn't look like they had much going for them. now they're really different out there under their coach, hands the flick. this is his 1st big test. so certainly love pressure on their heads going into it has been a rocky road leading today's, you know, has in it. yeah, absolutely. now, i mean, the guitar will 1st announce is host of this tournament back in 2010. there's been, you know, that was a controversial decision back then, and a lot of the issues that were raised have never gone away. cats are spared no expense to set the stage for the arab world. first, ever world cup. by some estimates, the tournament is going to cost the gulf state nearly 200000000000 euros. but controversy clouded people's decision to award cut are the spectacle from the start

. first you this summer heat in the region mandated, a schedule change to november, a move that will disrupt top domestic leagues that will already be underway. concerns about the treatment of migrant workers have also dominated the narrative. human rights groups alleged that migrant workers are vulnerable to systematic abuse that's resulted in thousands of debts. p for president gianni infant tino recently addressed the criticism, even claiming the world cup spotlight had led to a rapid improvement in working conditions. when he comes to the situation in an encounter in particular, i think we need to be fair there as well and admit that a lot of progress has happened. and a little progress in the conditions of the workers are of course more can be done everywhere. always infant tino has been accused of pandering into

cotter. he's even taken up residence in the nation. but regardless of the controversy, the 1st winter world cup in the northern hemisphere is going ahead. some qualifying games still need to be play for those already through ah, bringing champions friends are among the favorites again while germany one all 7 of their qualifying games. after hans, he flick took over his coach and stars like argentina's leo massey and portugal christiano. rinaldo just may be taking part in their final world cup and some 30 seconds fever. after all this. breathing a sigh of relief. yes, certainly. i mean, to have got the draw now done and dusted in the bag, is always the major milestone on the road. tickets all. and now that the fixtures are lined up, they would, you know, if it was certainly hoping that the itself will start making

a few more headlines. it's not going to be woke up like any other, whether it's going to be the best tournament ever. la jenny infants, you know, keep saying it depends how you measure it is getting closer. and if that was a major milestone on the right to think of this for good air conditioning, you watch as you w news. after a short break. i'll be back to take you through the day tonight, a former watergate prosecutor on the committee investigating the january 6th. the jack on the u. s. capital will be right back

with me. ah ah. what making the headlines and what's behind them? dw news africa. they show that the issues shape in the continent life is slowly getting back to normally on the street to give you enough reports on the inside of our correspondence with on the ground reporting from across the continent. all the trends doesn't matter to you. in 60 minutes, d,
