as the russians arrived. but i don't think you can we try to keep out of the way miss? i mean, yeah, well, maybe we should go back to the basement. she says that a little bit as a team of associated press film, russian artillery, keep up the bombardment along the road. more evidence of the fighting rushes objective is to cease to don best provinces. done yet in the hands in the east, at least 12 people were killed by shilling as heavy fighting continues in and around civil war. the next the local governor says the russians have taken 3 towns in the genetic region. russian troops are gaining ground in

the east. these are frontline positions now abandoned by ukraine. but further away from the fighting in areas where the ukrainians have regained control. residents are determined to start over over 34 that other people are returning home, even though it's safer to wait further away. but it's easier to teach us. her vision was personal. missa luda bought a 3rd of the 3. the me, people are coming back to their houses and starting to rebuild the helping our military. your school, we've asked the battle for done best intensifies, many more lives will be lost. russian forces are bombarding the twin cities of sabera, tanya and this is shanks. i asked our correspondent, but he is pulling who is in eastern ukraine. why these places are so significant?

yeah, these 2 places are basically the last 2 places in the low hands, cobblers, and little hands, province that are still in ukrainian hands. these are 2 cities that used to have each 100000 inhabitants, so they're quite significant. cities say what are the ness was the administrative center of those parts of the region of the, of the province. there were still controlled by ukraine, so they are significant in that way. and they are also, are the russians are seeing an opportunity now to gain access to, to, to cut them off to pocket these 2 cities. and that would of course, be a major again, russia has not been very successful with cities in this war. they have take the only major city they have taken more or less easily. was her son in the south, mary, you, paul, we all know the story has been a tragedy, but there in the end they gained control plus a few cities near there, but mostly they have been had trouble. jew is around or enter the cities and that's

also why this would be a major gate. i know mathias that you've been talking with the governor of lou hands region about what's happening there. i think we can play that clip now. after the about, the broke knows that it's just been, it's difficult to predict anything in war time. it's been exactly 3 months since the beginning of russia's full scale invasion. rational, been around, screeching, is holding the defensive line. although throughout the 3 months, our positions have been under fire daily. if anything is possible and what were the but we're witnessing the russian army trying to completely destroy yet yet of the netscape. they're shelling the whole place and they don't care if there are civilians. there or whether there's a hospital or a school illegal destroying old building, such a roster emergency within it is what about the people who are living in these towns that are under heavy bombardment? are they facing a similar situation to what we saw in mario, paul?

what you mentioned earlier were thousands of civilians were trapped for weeks in desperate conditions. the conditions already very di in both of these cities. we've been there a few days ago. there's no electricity, no phone connection, no internet. there is no gas we are hearing now. and her, of course a lot of it's very difficult to get supplies in there. no running water drinking water has to be brought in by trucks all the while. the road that is going man is being shelled constantly. so a dangerous to get there for these. you many tarion, 8 convoys or for an evacuation buses and et cetera. the russians were even able, at one point to, to, to, to set foot on that road. but they were driven away. so it's very difficult, but the difficult difference with my you both now is that the road, although it's dangerous, is open and somewhat something is going,

data is humanitarian aid. people are not starving there. but this could change very quickly as the situation the fighting route along this road intensifies. and then we would indeed have the situation where civilians 20000 remain now enlisted chance can 15000 we're hearing and save or go next. plus a soldiers are trapped in the city and that would be very similar probably to what we have been seeing in mary will pull that was the w correspondence he has building of speaking to me a little while ago. the war in ukraine continues to dominate the agenda on the final day of the world economic forum and devil, switzerland, key of mayor, italy, cliff, go address the annual summit of world and business leaders. earlier, he accused russia of trying to rebuild its empire and urged the international community to supply ukraine with more weapons and aid. german support for ukraine

is expected to be a focus of chancellor, all of shelters speech to the conference later. let's cross over to our report, ben, for sewland, who's in dallas, vent, german chest, all shots is due to address to form in the next hour or so. he's been struggling lately to balance germany's economic interests with europe security needs. do you think he'll will see that reflected in his speech today? my expectations are very low personally as far as i go and the chancellor, terry a lot of people he had call him the can't do chancellor. i mean, so many times we've st during this war, how he's refused to supply weapons, then said, yeah, show light weapons and then no, no, no heavy weapons and then yeah, okay, heavy weapons and on so many fronts, we've seen this patton, and it's something you see in german culture as well, where german would prefer to say no 1st and then back up and think about it again.

or as a straight is like may say yes and then find out they can't really deliver. it's not the worst a thing, but the problem is that ukraine doesn't have time, and that's what's lensky has said time and again, here at davos that the country is short on time. this is an urgent matter. they need help now. and that any help any supportive ukraine is also really supporting yourself. we heard that from italy clips co as well in his speech. yeah, the clutch co brothers of both former boxing heavy weights from ukraine. they're taking part in that formula. you mentioned vitale. clips go, the marquee of, he spoke this morning there, what was his main message been he said, 80000000 euros is going to be needed to rebuild the capital. and that, that's going to have to come quick as well before the winter sets. and because we're talking about hundreds and hundreds of apartments that have been destroyed, he describes the capital and the cruelty that he seen from the russians. they have

no rules, they won't stop. he said at crimea at luanda sc at the the entire country of ukraine. this could spill over borders into poland. he would he also said, had warned the chancellor, i'm sorry to not be held hostage by oil and gas. that's one thing we haven't heard this week, an oil embargo, and it's one thing that analysts here and experts here are calling full l. m stand . the climate activists are planning on another protest in davos to they been. they claim that in 50 years the world economic form has done nothing to make the world a better place. or these protests getting any traction been it's, it's hard to say, i think every protest counts. and it's difficult to get your message across to finance is here who were talking about huge sums of money. but what does count, terry, the end of the day is,

where are these financing is going to get their returns? and with this momentous, huge shift to renewables right now, that is being sped up by this war in ukraine. it's a must for these investors to shift their money because the returns are now going to come from renewables. it's becoming more profitable. it's becoming cheaper and alone, that is really something positive that's coming out of this davos despite what the skeptics say. and thank you very much. i was our corresponded ben facility in demo switzerland. president us present. joe biden is leading calls for stricter gun control after the united states experiences daily a school shooting in a decade, a teenaged gunman barricaded himself inside the classroom at an elementary school in texas. he killed 19 children and 2 teachers police later shot the attacker dead . many republican lawmakers oppose tougher gun laws despite the ever growing death

toll from mass shootings in the us. hugs and prize were everywhere in you vall, day on wednesday. as a town comes to terms with the murder of 19 children. but behind the displays of grief and empathy, anger and indignation, a rippling through america and are we must ask when in god's name will we do what needs to be done to if not completely stop, fundamentally change the model, the carnage goes on in this country. joe biden will travel to texas in the coming days to meet grieving families. sierra r is monday. is one of those relatives. her niece, 10 year old eliana garcia, was killed in the attack. i just so i just didn't know how

more details and now emerging of those killed in the attack. these just some of the innocent lives cut needlessly short dw correspondence stuff and siemens is at the scene of the shooting in texas. he sent us this update on how people are dealing with their grief. of course, they've pain trauma shock and all of this, but they somewhat of a permanent and overreaching moment of silence. people here are withdrawn now it seems they're going inside. they stay inside, they don't want to talk, they don't want to interact. they're pretty much alone with their pain and with their frustration and with the trauma they experienced. and perhaps this is about to last for quite a while. now. what's happening in washington of course, is a healthy debate. now progressive democrats propagating more change,

tougher gun controlled, tougher restrictions. republic is on the other side. perhaps i suspect it won't have, it won't touch it. for them. it's all about the 2nd amendment in the constitution that every american can bear arms and has the right to bear arms. and this should not be touched with. you're watching d. w. news from berlin coming up next year. we've got a story in our reporter section on people of murray, you poll and how that city became a symbol of ukraine's resistance. i'm terry martin for me in all of us here at the debate. thanks for watching. with or see asia and artic lovers, guided by boy brady, asian cities, 5 a local artists. ah indeed meek experience of their craft
