twin cities of several don't esque and lisa, chance ukrainian controlled cities in the loo hunter region. they have come under relentless, bombard, seeking safety and a ground for those still in several, denise basements like this are the best hope of escaping that. relentless, fresh and shelling. they try their best to go on is normal, but they moved here is desperate. whatever. i loss of serv. i don't some of those churches, mormons explosions. and so marshal, i just warmer i just have to or even mosque herself or marcella. ukraine says 90 percent of the housing in the city has already been damaged by shelling.

russia says it's a tillery has been pounding ukrainian military targets as part of its effort to risk control of the last part of the loo hands g region in ukrainian hands. with moscow is also trying to cut off supplies to the ukranian. defend us. striking this warehouse in the east and town of buck mode were a critical supply route to the besieged cities begins. but while russian forces may be making advances, ukraine's determined drifts distance goes on with the ukrainian military release. this footage, it sat, shows us try go on a russian position in a village just outside several. don yeske. another sign that for moscow it's offensive is likely coming at a heavy cost. earlier i spoke to samuel ben didn't. he's an advisor at the center for naval analysis. his rush of studies program and i asked him why the ukrainian military is struggling to stop rushes advance right now. thanks for having me

back. i think it's a little too early to make any definitive conclusions about how this particular russian advance is going to go there. so opportunity for counter attacks by the brain and forces by the russian forces. what is happening right now, it's probably reflection that the ukrainian forces have, in fact, suffered a lot of losses. they've suffered attrition. they're running out of manpower and supplies. russian military has more of the same, they have more soldiers, they've more supplies to have shorter logistics and supply lines. and so we're looking at a situation where russian military is bringing all of its numbers, all of its forces to bear against and exhausted, ukrainian defense. but again, we shouldn't probably jump to conclusions whether or not this is going to be a turning point because ukrainian forces can still launch counter attacks. but are we seeing now 3 months into this work? what we expected to see, you know, 10 weeks ago,

and that is the military might of russia on display and also working in pollutants favor. this was probably expected early on, all of the concentration of forces at the ukranian borders. all the numbers, all the russians, all of the technology systems, all of the russian tactics. this was probably expected early on, that the russian military would advance in an educated manner and overwhelm ukrainian. defenses is so in a way, yes, this is something we probably anticipated early on, but what is happening now. 10 weeks later is a testament to the ukrainian defense to it. it's a testament to the tenacious ukrainian a defense is counter tax tactics and their ability to exhaust and grind down the russian military 3 months into this war course. it's not all good for russia. i mean, we're hearing that russia is now deploying 50 year old

t $62.00 tanks. i mean, does that mean that the russian military is running out of modern equipment? well, in a way, yes, russian military did lose a lot of it's modern frontline forces, but it appears that the t 62 that you mentioned aren't going to be put to the front . they're going to be in the rear action and they're going to be in gar, duties. they're going to be monitoring the situation so that more modern things can be rotated to the front lines and he 72, the t s. and a t 90 s we talked a couple of weeks ago and i remember asking you to give us a prediction about how this war would end. and i asked you, do you think that this is going to be a war of attrition? what do you say now? it always has been a war of attrition, a few weeks into this war, it became clear that the russian military would be unable to make any significant

breakthrough. and because of a very well organized and well educated, ukrainian military there were able to successfully counter the russian force. they basically limit russian advance to incremental advances here or incremental events is there again, 3 months into this. russian military is pulling up additional resources. it has more material, it has more man power, it has more military systems to put in the field. but the ukrainian defense is still capable of holding russians and bay. and so the advance around or the nafrica was a chance is an attempt to inflict probably the 1st major loss on the ukrainian forces . but that's not a foregone conclusion as well. it appears that this style of or can continue for quite a while with russian military slicing off a little bit of ukrainian territory, creating salience around ukrainian forces and then closing those salience off with the sheer numbers and the sheer overwhelming manpower samuel ben did. it's always

we appreciate your time and valuable insight helping us to understand how this conflict is moving. thank you. thank you. where they are. words that are stinging today, believes in, you've all the texas admitted that they made a mistake in their response to tuesday, school shooting, waiting instead of moving in against the government. the tragedy has once again ignited that age of debate in america over gun control. the entering weapons, lobby's annual meeting, a forum for expressions of regret and complaints that democrats are using the shooting to push strict or gun control. last, that's what these people want to avoid. every time there's a bad guy with a gun that things are good guy with a gun, gustavo, i'll that guns don't kill people. people kill people, grieving families of the murdered children are angry. parents had gathered outside the school when the shooter was still at large. within about 40 police officer,

stood there and did nothing. parents bent them to see their children, but they were pushed back instead of him saying, go in there again and go in there, get him every minute, e kill somebody every moment. boom. every mom and they're like, nobody want to get hurt. they don't want to get hurt, so they don't want to go in because they don't want to get hurt. the children didn't have to die. after 12 minutes, the 1st officers reached the scene, but flint from the perpetrators shots, even police reinforcements were initially prevented from entering the school. only after 90 minutes did the police finally take action. the high side one sitting now or to load the right to the wrong or no, no excuse for that. the on see commander considered a barricaded subject and that there was time when there were no job more children at risk. the police still have many questions to answer. earlier i spoke with our correspondent def, on simon's,

i asked him what the people of you've all the texas thought when they heard that police officers made a mistake by not entering the school. immediately. i can tell you that there is a lot of people out there who, who don't have the kindest words for what they listen to and what they learned today from the police and, and of course we can't repeat them, but i can tell you that there is an outrage on the side of the public in you've all day and just imagine the families, they hurt. they heard this whole the 1st time too. so you lost your child and 3 days in, after all this happened, you're still grief stricken and you want the world to and all the world has ended for you. you get a press conference from the police, which we had asked for 4 days and that's, you know, that's a whole other story. i'm trying to get information information. now we know why

there were not forthcoming with information, not because they didn't have it all because they had a problem on their hands and the people in you all day and the families are absolutely devastated with this. and why would they not? that was a major blunder, and again, for 45 minutes, 19 officers in the hallway were told by the commanding officer. no, don't do anything because it's a barricades situation. people don't even understand why he was that. how this thinking or this assessment could have been done. so major mistake and outrage all along. that was to funds. i mean they're reporting from texas g, something climate change talked here in berlin. it ended with a commitment by the group of 7 leading industrial nations to end the use of fossil fuels to make electricity by the year 2035. the group also pledging to increase their climate change ambitions into double financial lead for poor countries. by the year 2025 know macola mentioned by 2035 in their power effective.

that's what the g 7 nations agreed on on friday in a be to slash the greenhouse gas emission. the agreement comes as to pressing issues, tackling climate change, and regaining energy independence for europe, where high under meetings agenda. he got some fun for, you know, you know, source land. the replacement of fossil energy from russia has very much shaped the political debate and the government's actions in recent days, weeks, and numbers on the cloud line. but we have to be clear that the challenge of our political generations, namely to curb global warming, will not go away if we focus only on the present and talk. equipped with this conference has made that very, very clear, at least for the 1st time to g 7 week, a nice to need to provide developing countries. these additional financial aid to cope with losses. and i made calls by global warming in light of the war in ukraine

. you bilateral partnerships have also been discuss the dependence on russian oil and gas that europe is feeling right now. clearly is an energy security issue. it is also a climate issue as we have to move away from the combustion of hydrocarbon resources . and so the way in which to, for europe to enhance its domestic energy security is to produce much more of its energy resources domestically through the deployment of renewables. and to look to source clean green sources of energy like hydrogen, from stable democratic countries like canada agreement, which will be put to leaders at the g 7 semi in m o. germany next month were largely welcomed by climate campaigners. our political who responded julia. so dill monitored that meeting for us and she told me about the impact of the war in ukraine on the meeting. it was definitely one of the top topics discussed here at the summit and

a lot of the ministers who spoke at press conferences and at events made clear that of the rushes invasion of ukraine and its consequences. have put the focus on the connection between security, energy sourcing and climate change, and it has made it even more relevant for countries within the g 7, for example, germany or italy to become quickly independent from russian fossil fuels. now the challenger, there is to make sure that this move away from russian energy sources doesn't bring g 7 countries to rely more heavily on fossil fuels, from other countries and other sources in the long term term. but this a move away from these russian fossil fuels actually leads to a transformation towards a bigger use of renewable energy. that was julia. so believe you're reporting from the g. 7 meeting here in berlin are his reminded that top story that we are following for you russian back to rebels claim to have taken over

a key town in eastern ukraine. moscow is pressing ahead with an offensive aimed at security control of industrials of ukraine's industrial part lat keep says that its forces are under attack now from 3 saw. this is dw news, rob watches up next will be w business news. i wish you a very, very good weekend everybody thought or asia and artic lovers guide by vibrating asian cities. 5 local artists ah, in the unique experience.
