calling back territory. ukrainian force is taken back control of villages on the outskirts of hot gift as units press fort with their counter offensive. the encounter trail of wreckage from rushes and mation ukrainian soldiers, se russian forces fired on civilian convoys as they were trying to flee the fighting in frontline aires like here destruction to buy ukrainian fighters. this russian tank, when a many blown up with the state of the art equipment, goes along the per mile. the weapons are helping us a lot, especially the anti tank one's official them. i wish we could get more of them vision to things. we use the weapons for specific target was fulfill wickersham, and here you see the results on equipment. if we had more weapons citizens, but we would get more results without blowing it will they should be sh on the diplomatic front. precedent ballade, amir cholenski, met with the foreign ministers from germany in the netherlands in the capital,

keith and lena bear bock as the 1st member of the german government to visit ukraine since the war began. then the alopecia, we will continue to support a european and free ukraine. money in humanitarian, financial, technological, political, and energy terms. and not only today, but also and above all, tomorrow in the long term. lang, 50 diminished the globe. but when asked about keith's ambition to join the you, the german foreign minister said there should be no false promises about shortcuts on the road to full membership. a corresponded ami and as if joins us from live in western ukraine. president zalinski says ukrainian fight as a pushing back russian troops. what can you tell us? well, these for villages around harkins might not seem so significant. but keep in mind that harkins is ukraine 2nd largest city. it was

a very important city before the war broke out. it's been under constant bombardment by russian forces since the beginning. and what we're seeing here is in ukrainian terms, what they hope to be a mirroring of what we saw in key of the capital city, where the russian forces had almost completely surrounded the city and then were pushed out village by village until they completely retreated. now why harkey is so important there if there was a 2nd pushback of russian forces around harkey is because it's in the east, but it's not part of the ardie russian occupied territories in the east. and as zalinski has already said before, he's offered a russia kind of ceasefire. if they would agree to go back to the territories that they already defacto controlled before the recent invasion. so those would be the terms for a peace agreement if they could push russian forces back away from areas important . ukrainian areas like harkey into the areas that have been under siege already since 2014,

when russia 1st became militarily involved in ukraine. so do you koreans field are getting the support they need to win this wol i think they've believed that tables have turned a little bit, especially because of analytic burbock, germany's foreign minister is recent visit to germany. the easing of tensions between germany and ukraine, which have been important for this country because germany has been kind of shaping european policy towards ukraine and now with a howitzer as being delivered from the netherlands and germany, which are going to be important in the battle for the dumbass, they see that the military imports are coming in their favor. now, a humanitarian deliveries are also important. several countries, including us, have announced another huge package of humanitarian aid to ukraine. and for a lot of people, this is a matter of life and death,

especially in areas around mar, you pull her cave and in the east where people are living off. if you have humana, terry, and aid, i'm sure it's great morale. when someone like the german foreign minister turns up to you claim it to ukrainians, belief they can actually when is war. now here in western ukraine, there has been an undying belief that ukraine will come out victorious, not just having a ceasefire with russia going back to the previous or what we saw before this year when russia had occupied the east, but completely kicking russia out of their country now that is the, the war time morale here in western ukraine. i believe it's probably different for those who are under russian seed shoe. see the bombs every day who are losing family members who are more likely to support a ceasefire that would just be able to preserve their life and way of living. but ukrainians are certainly not ready to give up the fight. and as the government has said, they're willing to make

a peace deal with russia as long as they can agree on something that would road really reset the conflict to before the russian invasion. so they're not willing at all to give up anything that they didn't have before this russian invasion. he w, corresponded dummy and s f for us in the video. while the war in ukraine has been going on for 2 and a half months at how much longer, according to intelligence sources in the united states, this would be just the beginning. we are not us national intelligence to rank to apple haynes believes roches preparing for a protracted conflict. putin is ainsworth, senators, that president vladimir putin still intends to achieve goals beyond ukraine's eastern dumbass. regenerate position, he said boot and janet could turn to more drastic means as it won't take his ultimately end up in world war 3. this week we've been getting analysis from former intelligence officer, frank led, which from the university of portsmouth. earlier today,

i asked him for his take on the latest warnings for the us. what several haines spoke about yesterday was amongst other matters, perhaps extension of the war and not only in terms of the land, but in terms of the domains in which it is being fought. what we may be saying is an extension to the cyber to may or possibly even space. but one thing which the americans are also beginning to talk about is slightly disturbing. of course for everybody is the possibility that nuclear low yield euclid weapons could be considered. that's a huge question. we shouldn't be polite about that, but there's more than one way of escalation like that. but what we've got here now, there is an attrition war and that, that suits you create far more than russia it's. it's a big problem for russia long war, i think. why does that suit the ukrainians? well, 1st start. russia has always coming to their now that's manpower pool. we've been seeing for

a long time that they've been scraping the barrel and to try and find tre manpower, what they're going to be looking to. now. conscripts which are hard, this particular truck is about halfway through its training. they were called up in february and i will go on. so what we're going to see is a deep professionalization where it can be even less professional of the russian are forces as the war goes on. they've got to the end of the road. i was you what's happening with ukraine. it's ok. it's becoming more professional, better on better structure to more experience. so in the longer term, the or goes look more favorable for you crate. in that respect, i would suggest what about perkins objectives at this point if they changed, i mean, do we have any indication as to what may constitute victory for him? yes, i think she speaks the other day, which, which is commonly garza really it was. it was, it was something of a dumb scrape, wasn't it? but what we did here, that was the don't boss mentioned 5 times in crimea, once you crate, by the way the word you can sort of call it wasn't mentioned once,

but anyhow. so we're seeing folks sit down with the objectives to don't best, but you know, a piece before suggested that that isn't the limit to the objectives. and i would suggest that there is a remains a historical object, which is that southern part of ukraine. russians used to call it not to say, in fact, there was a republican never received a claim for about 3 weeks in, in 2014. it's very russian history is very conscious of this fact the 18th century . and i would suggest that that sort of band coastal character of ukraine is also on, but it would be the main objective. they're not going to get up without a fight. let's put it that way. retired left kind of general told me last night that the u. s is talking about winning this war and they're talking about taking back those eastern parts as well as crimea. what do you think about that? there's no doubt ukraine has the edge now. yesterday, the ukrainian army took territories very near the russian border. hockey,

which was hinted at again in an earlier peace, significant. so that is 2 fold. first of all, so the, in other words, the printer already counter attacking. first of all, they're not within artillery range of russian railway supply routes to the southern, to the dog bus area. it's a big truck, big problem for russian logistics. is it, them got enough already. secondly, they're not having to redirect forces out of the don't bus out of an already stored operation. but to return to your point where you question the ukrainians are certainly shaping for a major counter attack. and it's like you can take place. i would assess not only me in probably tools, july, and the russians are going to have at some point that current offensive is going to, it's going to to run out. going to culminate is military. people say, going to run out of steam. at that point, the rock, the ukrainians will be ready to counter attack and then they'll be ready to retake ground, especially down in the south. and that's what we're really going to see some, some heavy fighting towards the end of the year. so yes, a long war, you know, to, from frank lake,

which was an intelligence officer in the british military and lectures at the university of portsmouth. thank you very much. thank you. but the more in ukraine is taking a toll on kids. officials say 219 children have been killed and more than 400 injured in the fighting so far. according to eunice, definitely 2 thirds of ukrainian children being forced to flee their homes. a camp for internally displaced, people in west and ukraine is trying to meet the needs of school age. children whose lives have been up ended, a correspondent demand where shots pay them a visit. it takes a village to raise a child and war times. i'm no exception. here and even though frankie asking western ukraine locals had mobilize resources and manpower to keep young this place . children a safe haven, martin, some friends, saturdays, safe space was the support of antonio mercy, called the when the worries started to, we really wanted to make

a bigger contribution and ever saw so many people who are new to our cd. it with the families. and i, we also saw there was a big need in taking care of the kids while parents to trying to figure out their life here in our city. and together with my friend who is there in education area. ah, we are open to this school camp. disco camp brings a semblance of normality back to the lives of these children till all of them miss home may, could i young? we play dr. and hairdresser, with my friend graham. i want to go home. i'm from keith isla. landed phil. oh oh my grandmother lives here. are you? oh, we arrived on the 3rd day of war here at 10 p. m, fully or 30 then even there. i miss my friends. you re cheddar. czar did always jamari. my name's my name, sophia,

i'm from turner. you. i miss my friends little issue despite coming from very different places and not always sharing the same language or cultural background. children here quickly adapt college when kids from different parts of ukraine talk to each other. it's very good. you know, they share experiences. lots from eastern and central ukraine speak russian, but now they're trying to speak ukrainian, sometimes with a funny accent, but it's good. they're trying beyond the sea, the lines, the children are still experiencing the trauma flow. something indicators also try to address children need to talk by themselves about this. so they, they would sell as okay was said in the bomb shelter for a week. and then they started opening up or we, we lived under like many rents. and then we traveled here, so they are aware and for this particular reason we have every week,

art therapy sessions was now with certified psychologists. and that they work with them through therapy, through art, through therapy for them to express themselves across ukraine. similar initiatives are tackling children's needs while they alleviate to apply to for them. they cannot replace the safety of the homes. they have lost one joint from denise pro in central ukraine by mold mcdonald from safe the children. she's a mental health specialist and is leading the mental health and psychosocial support, initial response team from inside. you cried. could you tell us what sort of cases you're coming across in your daily work? sure, thank you. so we're seeing incredibly distress children presenting with symptoms that are very concerning ranging across a wide range. i'm ranging from bed wetting, to sleep disorders, to nightmares. difficulty with leaving caregivers or

sometimes feeling like they want to isolate when falls and anger and irritability that can sometimes end up in acting out. so a wide range of really concerning sometimes that children are just playing and what are the solution to how do you deal with these sorts of kids will help them. so say the children as responding in several ways we secret met mental health as being a critical part of this response. one of the ways we're doing that is by initially bending in bunker kits to where children are in the front lines. you're hearing stories of children sheltering for days and weeks on end. not knowing when they're going to see the light of day. again, not be potentially being separated from friends and family. birthday violence and shelling and bombing outside of their environments. and so one of the things we're doing is deploying these bunker kits that are filled with toys and games and creative materials, but also have

a really strong psycho social component that can help children with stress relief activities, but also support them to express some of these really challenging emotions and, and big feelings they might be having and also help parents to be able to respond effectively and support their children through these really difficult situations. another thing that we're doing is working to train it as many people as possible. we're working with children and caregivers in psychological 1st stage, and this allows caregivers to 1st of all identify and he's really just trusting symptoms of distress that children might be displaying, but also to be able to respond effectively so that children can be supported in the best way possible and can start the recovery. how do you identify which kids are traumatized or are you basically having to treat basically every kid that comes away? well, and it's important to remember that children experiencing distrusting situations respond in a variety of ways. many children, you know,

children are very resilient and with the support that with that right support, they can, they can recover and heal from these distressing situations. so it's vital is that we are providing the support to children so that we're not seeing the long term effects of these incredible horrific situation. if these children are left with long term effects, what, what do you do then? so say the children's committed to be in ukraine for the long term and respond effectively to the changing needs of children and families. and that's more so one of the things that we're doing is creating these child friendly places where children have a chance to be safe here and get a chance to be children again and, and play and connect with their age groups and entrusted adult. but also how supports you continue to recover, express themselves, find ways to work through the grief and loss and, and start to build their lives again. and so they can have fun again, that's what it is meant to be about as a kid is in

a mo mcdonald from say the children into the pro. thank you very much. and here now to sri lanka, where authorities have extended a curfew and have been given orders to crack down on riot, has following unrest that erupt this week. several people have died in clashes in recent days. weeks of peaceful protests turn violent off to pro government groups. attack to protest is calling the resignation of president quoted by roger pasha. they blame him for a debt crisis that is left free. lincoln's economy in turn, is from the prime minister, resigned on monday and has gone into hiding. earlier, i spoke to milan audi sync. he's a journalist at the south asian newspaper in colombo. i asked him for the latest on the protests. now the latest from the tree long that the enforced island, violet light curfew has been extended,

which has invariably contribution will end up violence that the business on monday, which saw a 88 really close. and 100 houses got that. however, in the past 20 hours, that's due because of isolated incidental violence, gumble and fossil colombo and the ivan was wanting the same a curfew and even warnings the police will use lives. ammunition hasn't helped people want president roger ponce to go. how has he responded yet? you're right. so yesterday, the minister of defense stated that trifles us has, has been deployed an order to assured all the all who probably properties, or course, personal home and day morning the so picks up on the that he goes to columbus. and as journalist in david reports that heavy music and checkpoints in columbus and yet to hear from both of it,

but he did early on asking for hon and to the echo violence. however, there will also be a meeting happening over soon later today. and they're expecting to have more more, more clarity following from the fact that the economy is in shambles. and true, thank is going to staggering dead load. what is the way out of this crisis then? yeah, i mean that's the question that abby, sri lankan has been awesome for the last few months actually. i mean the, i am if, without a statement today saying that he would continue discussions with 3 law and they would be prepared for a discussion with the new government when that is form. but they also stated that while they're coming to us, it's sheila, they're also quite mostly monitoring the development. and i mean, in my opinion,

i think we need more practice on a pallet and a period of stability to improve confidence. and for that to happen, i think the new vomiting that trust them for both of the people and a good starting point would be that ignition of the president, which has been the darling bye of the benefits from around the country for the last journalist. but on august income in colombo, thank you. thank you. let's look at some of the other stories making headlines today. use broadcaster al jazeera says, is ray, the troops of shot dead, one of its journalists to ring up or clay in the occupied west bank. the veteran journalist had been covering a raid in jeanine refugee camp. israel says an investigation is underway into the journalists death and that there was evidence she may have been hit by palestinian gun, fired during a fire fight. more bodies have been found in the rubble of a collapse hotel in cuba. capital 42 people don't think when an explosion destroyed

the saratoga in havana. a spokesman for the hotels operators as many of the victims with stuff police in our media has detained over 60 people during protests in the capitol. hundreds marched through get on for prime minister and nico passion, young to step down. i mean, he is lead as face see criticism, the sending a piece deal with neighboring us by john in 2026 weeks of war as a by john claim. several territories from media. for the the 3rd time in her 70 years on the throne, britons, queen elizabeth, has missed the ceremonial opening of parliament. instead she handed over the duty to her prince charles delivered her traditional speech, laying out the government's policies, moving forward. a full opening of parliament is the most high profile judy, the 96 year old. when we asked our london correspondent char chelsea pill, how prince charles did filling in for his mother. absolutely was

a mocker in history. the 1st time that he has done this, and apparently we went to the are you ones tuning and kathleen to see how a wind painted the queen herself was tuning in to take a look at how has on was doing in this really key constitutional role. now, in some sense, prince charles has been preparing for a moment just like this, his entire life. he has been in waiting for this roll. it also has to be pointed out that much of this event is pump pageantry and, and tradition. so many time, all nodes, things that many outside of the u. k. u, indeed many within the u. k. think is often quite bizarre, but there is a lot of structure to this is prepared, the speech is relatively short and it's written by the government. and so this, it wasn't something the prince charles prepared himself, so we weren't expecting any real fireworks, nevertheless, and support huge amounts of attention here looking at how he was doing because essentially this is

a glimpse into the future for the british public. really for the 1st time seeing him perform this constitutional role, you really do get the sense now that there is this, this slow, this gradual transition into prince charles taking on a much, much more prominent role with english football team, manchester city as agreed to sign dublin striker holling on, on july 1st, the norwegian was one of the most wanted players in the world. on this contract meant you could leave a german club this summer for a 75. know you're a transfer fee and you said to want to wage really off $1000000.00 euros a week. the whole end is a goal scoring machine. i strike out who combine speed, strength, and skill with phenomenal results. and even if you didn't hear it from them,

he'd move dimensions to see and it's riches long 1000 eligible. is it true that you're ready to bring early holland? here we do understand the months just to sit here in poll position to sign and no answer to your question. no answer to holland your opinion of him as a strike and no question. no answer about questions. holland had also attracted interest from the likes of rail madrid and barcelona, and little wonder, he's average nearly a goal per game for dormant. $88.00 appearances, $85.00 goals, plus $23.00 assists. those numbers meant his departure was a question of when north 8th speculation over his future, eventually creating tensions between club and player. i really all i want to do is to play football, but they pressed me to make a decision about my future. so that means i have to make a decision soon and also i'm getting holland follows in the such steps. if his father house nga, who will stay played for manchester city for 3 years,

whole and junior cost a fair bit more, there are 75000000 euros. some would argue that's a bargain for one of the best players in the world. going to pay for that. so fidel up next d w 's environmental magazine looks at how electric power rich shows good health countries, carbon emissions in india. we'll have more headlines for you next hour. you can also get your news. 247 and our website d, w dot com and on twitter it dw, from painful and thanks for watching. ah ah ah ah ah ah,
