5:02 pm
including more than 240 children. thousands more have been wounded, and the un says both figures are likely to be much higher with areas like mario pulse, still inaccessible. it's also hard to know how many soldiers have died. russia last released at figures in march saying that more than 1300 of its troops had been killed. but u. k. intelligence says that figure is likely to be at least $15000.00. there's also little information about the number of ukrainian soldiers dead, but president zalinski has put the daily figure at between 50 and 100 and the war has pushed millions from their hopes. the un says more than 6800000 people have left the country as some have since returned, while millions are internally displaced. and then there's the destruction, more than a 1000 and schools and hundreds of hospitals are in ruins, not to mention, houses, roads, bridges, and factories. it's widely agreed that the cost of rebuilding will run into

hundreds of billions of euros. dw correspondent young philip sholtes is in keith and told me where things stand in this conflict. thanks her tense. at the moment, especially in the east president lensky says that around 20 percent of the territory have been occupied by russia, as you know, after the failed attempt said to take over keith. at the very beginning of the war, russians have been focusing on the dung bas region in the east of the country, or the russian or the ukrainian forces. i have had some success, their badge, most of the territory in the danbury is in the hands of the russians or by now, and it's a territory well before the war. 15 percent of the ukrainians left and they're still fighting, going on in the key city are for severe donnette sca russians have taken over most of the city, but they're still resistance by the ukrainian forces. now the last couple of days
5:04 pm
have seen a promising sophomore, heavy weaponry from western countries for that's going to take a weeks if not months to actually arrive. so it does that mean things are likely to get worse for ukraine before they get better. well things might get worse in the coming weeks. yes. but are all experts say that the fights are also in the danverse region is far from over, of course a ukrainians. a say that the process of the weapon delivery should be a faster that they should speed up the weapon deliveries. but all sides seem to be prepared for a long war of attrition at the moment as so those are new weapon systems will almost certainly play in a very important role in a possible future count out offensive. so by the ukrainians and the coming weeks and months a state of louisiana phillips shoulds reporting from keith. well, maria,
5:05 pm
siri, chunk has moved back to the ukranian capital out of being evacuated out of the city when the war began. the little if she told me her family is doing now. hi. so my family and dia, we were touched by these were a lot because i'm originally from mary cole and my family leave there for their whole life. so now of course we're fill, you know, it, we can to describe how we feel, actually because my grandma was in to maria maria for 3 weeks. i'm sorry, you know, under constant showing what it was that really the most difficult cetacean theory and my family, my parents, they love their home, and now they are in the hero because they can get back actually to the are home seated to marry you. poland. i also left a key of for 3, almost 3 months and now i'm back to key if,
5:06 pm
because i feel it's my home and i want to be there. but yeah, so i think it's impossible to describe the whole spectrum of the emotions that we have. and i wonder while you were away, was it because of course the, the media that's been wall to wall coverage of this? did you avoid watching what was going on? or were you sort of blue to the sat we couldn't avoid watching of what's going on because you know, it's my home is my nation and it's the people who live in my country and you can just get away from that. so we are constantly into all this flow of the news and what's going on because we want to help our country and we tried to do whatever we could do in order to get the station just a big batter and we want to win them all of our so that's why we can get away from that and now you're backing keith. how does that feel? do you feel safe?
5:07 pm
personally, i feel relatively safe and clear. of course we have regular, a res byron. you know, each day, of course varies a gas shortage. and in order to feel the time, you need to wait, you know, 234 hours some times to get the gas actually. but it's my home and there are more and more people coming back to key. if unfortunately, maybe people with kids, they can get back because still it's not face. so they are paying in europe or in western part of ukraine. but when i get back to key, if i realized that, yeah, it's the place where i belong and i would be there for the future. and you mentioned, you know, your grandmother has just said that she isn't married. which of course is now under russian control. have you heard from it? yeah, finally, we match after a 3 months of war and we evacuated sure from the occupied territory. now she's in
5:08 pm

5:09 pm
a crime scene spanning virtually an entire country. boucher air pin, harkey. more you pull international investigators want to see the perpetrators in another city as soon as possible. the hague. we all know who are responsible for the civil for these dis, forever isn't what is going on or ukraine. of course, this president of russian federation and his team actually who started this war, who started to kill civilians, rape, or oh, city allowance, tortured civilians, alleged atrocities which if proven, are war crimes. while the prospect of actually getting vladimir putin and his military commanders into a courtroom may seem remote ukrainian prosecutor arena been addict ever has
5:10 pm
unprecedented resources to reach that goal. i feel i trust and i hope there to with my international colleagues with international community or floors. we can speak about justice. we need justice. we want to control milton. a new joint investigation team headquartered in the hague, is cooperating to seek justice in a range of settings in ukraine, where they've already been convictions in the international criminal court. the i c . c, which is gathering evidence on the ground. and in at least 10 european countries using a mechanism called universal jurisdiction. i think this is what is needed for crimes off the magnitude that we often see at the i c. c. we have to join hands in the common interest of humanity, evidence from the various investigating things from you, crane or other national government to the international criminal court will all be deposited here at euro, just the european union's judicial cooperation agency. then all authorities will
5:11 pm
have access to it. but even with these joint efforts, war crimes cases could take many years because of their extremely high burden of proof. human rights lawyer, lot alike explained. there's a quicker path to justice prosecuting the crime of aggression. it is a crime where leaders, people in leadership positions make the decision to launch war against another country, every bomb and ukraine to day. every shelling of a city or town, every tank of russian tank in active in ukraine is a crime of aggression. i liked supports calls for another tribunal to be set up to handle these cases. likely under the human rights body, the council of europe, ireland, the counsels current president wants to do that by november. how much patience do ukrainians have to see war crimes prosecuted?
5:12 pm
arena benedict of her answers by recalling the horrors she seen on the battlefield . it's impossible to forget it is possible to forgive. in other words, as long as it takes love e. u has her formerly approved further sanctions over the war, including an embargo on most russian oil imports by the end of the year. as part of this 6th round of measures, 3 more russian state media outlets have been banned. and russia's biggest bank square bank has been cut off from the swift system. low to sanctions are aimed at adding a pressure on me kremlin ability to pay for its war. we can look at its likely effect with mikhail, a critique in who's an oil and gas expert with the independent ross energy consulting agency. welcome to d w. so let's start with those those latest to you sanctions. we're looking at that 90 percent of the blocks oil imports cut by the end of the year. how much of
5:13 pm
a difference is likely to make to the russian economy? it, it would make a great difference. i think that by the end of the year, the rest in crude oil production is going to stream by 20 to 30 percent. and that's great and very heavy blow to the russian economy and economy will suffer as a result, does not just crew the oil, which will stop flow in from russia to europe. it is also very refined products which are russia or uses. it's every year esa, exports, about 144000000 tons of refined products. and over half of the years to go to europe and know when europe does not want to buy that for us or will have to stop the oil wells which produce oil into still refineries in the final run. i believe that the in the beginning of the next year,
5:14 pm
they are even use the rest and federal budget will do the rest of the federal buds are going to be 25 percent smaller than they were before the war. ok that's, that's significant. meanwhile, of course, sanctions, hey to everyone, they hit the russians and they hit the european union in the all those countries or imposing sanctions. as we see at the moment, there are massive petrol price spikes around the world. and one wonders where opec is in this has opec picked aside in this war, the organization of a put oil producing countries. why haven't they increased at supply to bring prices down a v. initially, they wanted to increase total production of this opec lust alliance to irregular value over about $400000.00 barrels per day.
5:15 pm
then they decided that the sea and the thrush that you leave in the market of oil globally. they decided to increase the overall more production. and it's, i think it is a good assistance to the global market. sour do officials say, and i believe that there, there is no deficit of oil on the market right now. and when we look at the prices, yes, initially they went up a barrel of brand price went up to $124.00. but by the end of the same day, the price failed to $150.00 him. so okay, the market almost did not notice the effect of the embargo so, so it's doing, it's made it, it's turned on the tops. i was just looking down the road. what happens if western
5:16 pm
sanctions are effective and the russian economy does take a nose dive. do the rest of us then stand by and watch millions of people carrying up for bread diondra forward or perhaps being reduced to begging in the streets? well, here arrest officials say, well may be chang that, or india are going to help russia to obtain the capitol technologies and made it by russian oil and the refrain products. but in fact, when we look at the shape of the trade between russia and those countries and other asian and african countries, we see that the progress all book increase in imports from russia is not not noticeable. it's neither china nor india can replace europe as the main market for ration oil and gas. ok,
5:17 pm
so hard times are coming. thank you so much for joining us in explaining that to me . carla critique it from ross energy i was speaking of your crimes. parliament is in berlin, hoping to convince german leaders to send more arms to keith was lunch. stefan chuck is urging germany to deliver promised weapon systems without delay. after meeting a chancellor, all i shall see visited the parliament where he was given a standing ovation. only the parliament has also taken a step towards delivering on defense spending promises. prompted by this war, the change the constitution, lawmakers approved the 100000000000 bureau package for the armed forces. the boost will bring germany into line with its pledge to to nathan, to spend more on defense chancellor shelves as described the war as a turning point for german defense and foreign policy. can join
5:18 pm
deed of his chief political correspondent, melinda, crying at the german department. welcome, melinda. what will this 100000000000 euros be spent on? while the largest share over 40000000000 euros will go to bolstering air capabilities, and they are the german defense minister, is taking an unusual step in order to move fast, namely, buying u. s. made of f, $35.00 fighter jets and also chinooks helicopters off the rack as it were. rather than embarking on a long drawn out development process with european allies and beyond that, 19000000000 will go to the navy. and another 16000000000 will go to the army for increase equipment including armored vehicles. but it's worth noting that the considerable deficiencies of the german military are by no means only material, but also institutional, which is why one of the key pledges made here today was the job front german
5:19 pm
defense ministers vow to reform the countries unwieldy and very bureaucratic procurement process, people are going to look of a so and wonder why do you have to change the constitution to increase the defense budget something that but countries around the world a do pretty much every year. that's right. well, one aspect is symbolic, this is a sign of the seriousness of the commitment to reverse decades of under investment . but there's also a very practical aspect, and it's this by anchoring this fund in the constitution, the parliament essentially has taken it out of the normal budgetary process. which means that if the finance minister has its way and constitutional limits on debt or reinstated in 2023, the so called debt break, this fund will still flow. it will not be susceptible to budget cuts that other
5:20 pm
ministries may have to endure. right? unless of course old prompted by the war in ukraine, but these changes clearly indicate a shift. well beyond this current conflict, they absolutely do. you know, when we evaluate germany's willingness to walk the talk on a turning point in its commitment to defense. we often look at heavy weapons deliveries to ukraine and while they are definitely important, the fact is that the turning point goes far beyond that. it goes to a readiness to defend democracy in general, and also to germany's competence and capabilities as an ally. and they have been seriously called into question by the long years of under investment. and that's why one of the statements made here today that got the most resounding applause, was by the foreign minister on a lena bear book. when she said, thanks to this fund in future, we will be able to say we're there when europe needs us. thank you so much for that,
