i saw a city in short steed that basically has been destroyed that even before it could be fully finished. this is a very young suburb of give lots of high rise new apartment blocks that had been basically a ruined it'll while still under construction. um, you see a lot of people on the shell shock, happy to see outside his they were cut off snouts. i'd was basically a month, but a mix of kind of hope relief and a very am shocked energy. people very keen to tell their stories to share what they've been through the last few months am and we were in at the main or grave site next to our church. am we believe based on what people there told us that about 100 people are lying there in several layers. those right at the bottom that you can see in parts have, which is buried in what they were walking in when, as the locals told us,

they were shot on the streets and then collected by neighbors and other ukrainian or locals who brought them there to get them off the streets in the middle ave, got people who basically wrapped in the dovey or some so i kind of bed cover. and then the top layer, people are in body bags around the lrc associates, tried as best they could to collect the passports, to, or any either kind of id that were on these people when they were found on the streets to be able to reconstruct who they were and to let their next of kin know. we went to the cellar of a children, saw their camp, or where the ukrainian se, several people were executed with their arms type on their backs. the bodies had been recovered by those or to stay, but there was still a stain, blood stains on the walls, will it's lying around close, ma'am. it's a very am extraordinary and disorienting place to be and the most x ray, because the rest of ukraine and most people here live in care of like journalists, we're hearing the artillery shells in the distance. it's only 25 kilometers,

kind of direct line from downtown kia but they weren't able to get there for weeks and weeks and weeks. there wasn't reliable phone or in 2nd act for a long time. so people was hearing this were fearing the worst we're hearing awful things, people's managed get out, but weren't able to actually go and take look themselves until the last few days. and it sounds from, from what you're saying that there was no shortage of people that are to witness what actually happened. that's right. and d 20th ortiz, are now being very proactive in trying to collect those i witness counts a few days ago or another part of the kia region where the ukrainians have come back and re taking a troll in recent days. and as soon as you enter that region, you get an automatic text message encouraging you to a report, whatever you've experienced to a government website and even on a local level. so those people who collected the bodies and talking about their attempt now to try and find those next of kin to they have lists of the dead that they found. and now trying to not having to, you know, in part for the most part,

there still is an internet or mobile phone connection in butcher. but now trying to get back on social media to then try and find the road to these people based on the names based on the place where these people were found. one of the most haunting things i heard today was from an older woman who had spent the most past month hiding in house scared of leaving. and she talked about her son in law who had gone out to try and buy some food and been shot. but only that, they found him fairly quickly, but they weren't able to recover the body for weeks because they were scared that if they went out onto the roads where it was dangerous, that they would also lose their lives. they also took mines, supposedly bodies being covered with mines or booby traps, so that there would be a direct physical danger threat to people's lives if they tried to get those bodies back and they'd only be able to recover that body. and the last few days of to weeks of that body lying on the road, dw correspondent nick connelly in keith. will those discoveries in boucher prompted germany to expel 40 russian diplomats france lithuania?

have announced a similar moves? german foreign minister, another in a bad box at her country, would also boost it support the claims on forces. untied economic sanctions against russia. and despite germany's dependence on russian gas calls to halt, imports, here are growing. berlin is shocked by the images of russia's attack on boucher germany's foreign minister spoke of crimes against humanity that will be countered with immediate weapons supplies to keith anthony. not been affected by the van will you will set rank than our support for ukraine's defense? i admired boucher and mary you, paul, have shown us this is a life or death situation for millions of ukrainians. my mention in that we are considering delivering weapon systems that we had held back until now. deviate busy, and nist khalifa. hobbin. on top of this, the german government has declared that 40 diplomats from the russian embassy are now persona non grata, and will be expelled from the country. and their voices demanding an immediate hall

to all russian guest imports are growing louder. politicians say it's not possible . according to the economy minister, germany was following the wrong energy policy. for far too long, just on we're now reversing our energy policy every day. we are working towards creating the pre conditions necessary for an embargo. and it's my opinion and that of the government that this is the correct way to proceed. and once carried out, it will harm putin on a daily basis. 14, take a shot at a gas embargo would hit germany's middle class, the hardest, the opposition see the you warns that this must be taken into consideration if it's not only important to think about how this will affect russia. it's also very important to measure the effects this will have on millions of germans, or this is a deciding factor. this is why we should exit our dependence on oil and coal consumption quickly, but reduce gas consumption more slowly, middle felicity. to enable the continue will supply of gas. germany has decided to

appoint the federal network agency as trustee for the germans subsidiary of russia's gas. prom. further sanctions against russia will be decided together with the you. the commission has already recommended more disciplinary measures. last a doubly political correspondent, thomas sparrow. whether germany's coal for increased sanctions against russia was a direct result of the discoveries of boucher. absolutely. and something else as a direct result of the discoveries of those bodies and that massacre in boucher is the decision to expel those. fourty diplomats with germany's interior minister only a while ago. stressing that it's all about securing germany, maintaining official security, if you will, public security against russian lies and propaganda as germany's interior minister stress. and we've also heard the official russian reaction to all that coming from

the russian embassy here in berlin. stressing that they presented their view to german officials of what happened in butcher. they rejected germany's announcement of those 40 diplomats being expelled. stressing that germany's unfriendly actions would not be left without consequences. we still don't know exactly what those consequences would be. but according to the russian officials, they stress that this basically damages russian, german relations even more and makes dialogue even more difficult between both countries. from a german perspective, clearly, decision related to what we're seeing from ukraine, and also an alina bab, oak, the foreign minister stressing that this is only the beginning, that more actions are actually expected from a sparrow while the war in ukraine has prompted european countries to take steps to decrease their reliance on russian gases we've been hearing unto accelerates a shift towards green energy. despite this experts say climate action is not

happening fast enough. you in climate scientists released a new report and its findings are stark saying that serious cups to carbon pollution unnecessary. the world needs to act. now, the world is hurtling towards a climate danger zone and the options to avoid it of running out the assessment of the new i. p. c. c report is clear, drastic action is needed to avert catastrophic global warming. the un secretary general set the report reveal the litany of broken, climbed promises, some government and business leaders are saying one thing. but doing and others simply put, they are lying and the results will be catastrophic. these is a climate emergency. climate scientists sworn that we are already perilously close to tipping points that could lead to cascading and irreversible climate impacts. climate impact that is leading to more extreme weather events. the world is on

a pathway to exceed the $1.00 degree celsius warming limit agreed at cop $21.00 in paris. if we continue acting as we are now, we're not even going to limit warming to 2 degrees. never, never mind 1.5 degrees, emissions in the last decade were the highest they have ever been of continued to increase. scientists say emissions must peak by 2025 to prevent disastrous climate effects. and that only a drastic reduction will secure a livable future. the big message we've got, you know, human activities got us into this problem and human agency can actually get us out of it again on, i think that's the hopeful message that we are trying to get over in this report. it's not the hope, it's not all lost, we really have the chance to do something the world must leave behind the age of fossil fuels. the un says of phase the disastrous consequences of climate change.
