ah ah ah, this is dw news alive from berlin, fresh strikes on ukraine's capital. russian missiles. it's key for the 1st time in weeks and says russia will retaliate if the west descends ukraine. long range weapons, dozens of worshipers. i fear dead in nigeria. as gunmen open fire in the church will bring you the latest. on the right royal celebration of britons, queen elizabeth hm. i did find the

delighted crowd from the balcony at buckingham palace. illness meant them or not missed much of have them to believe celebrations. ah, eddie micah junior is the name welcome to the program. russia has targeted ukraine's capital key, but with the fresh raj of missile strikes, me of italy, kit school has confirmed the 1st attacks on the city in weeks. kate school says missiles heads, infrastructure targets, but no one was killed. life in chief was beginning to regain a measure of normality as russia concentrates its forces in the east. roches president vladimir puts an s threaten into head new targets. if the west sends you green long range missiles,

it's not clear whether upwards in is referring to targets within or beyond ukraine's borders. can you bulletin you? so live long range missiles are supplied. we'll make certain conclusions and use our own means of destruction that we have enough to strike a target. we have not yet been hitting them. let's go straight to dw correspondent ne connelly who is standing by and keep. hello, nick, what are your koreans making of futons comments? well, honestly, the take here on the streets caves that this is a sign that the russians generally worried about the prospect of these weapons being delivered. it has to be said that these are not long range missiles and sets of cruise missiles or anything of the kind that russia has that can go thousands kilometers. and did the missiles that hit key of this morning, the russian missiles were launch of the caspian sea. thousands goes away. what we're talking about here are the weapons that can be used with the rocket systems rocket launch systems that are being delivered presently,

which at present only have about 8200 kilometer range. and there is the option to go beyond a 100 kilometers up to maybe 300 kilometers or in terms of dimensions that the americans would send the ukrainians. this is not anything that would give you crane capacities on par with more modern militaries in western europe or in north america . but it would allow ukraine to really hit russia's supply chain, hit the supply lines, and really give it a significant option to really push the russian forces back while staying at a safe distance. and that is something of the russians think would allow ukraine to really move forward on that field yet. we clearly had wanted to have 1st and put in said earlier, is the city word. this could be the start of more strikes to come over. western weapons applies. i mean russia and the kremlin blood reputed in particular have been making threats all along, basically has been threatening nuclear war, should the west supply ukraine with more sophisticated weaponry. so this is really nothing new. and indeed,

what people are talking about more here in ukraine right now is the fact that a russian cruise missile was detected on the security cameras of one of ukraine's biggest nuclear power stations. today, the fact that russia is willing to fire weapons that have been proven in the past to fail to go off target. so close to a huge euclid power station. that really for them is a sign that russia is not really caring about the risks and whether or not they may try an attack ukrainian government buildings, the presidential palace hearing, keith, i think that's less crucial than just the willingness to really pump the pressure. now the rust notary isn't doing too well about field, okay, on that ukraine is claiming it has we captured large parts of several? don't ask if that can be verified. what is the significance of that development? well, obviously this has been the central battle on the dumbass front for more than 10 days now. and there been predictions time time again from west ellis, that it was just a matter of days or maybe a week at most before russia took over the city. now the russia is concentrated its

forces on a very small part of the front lines, learning from the lessons of the early months. the wall where russia spread itself too thinly. but even though it seems russia is not the chief in the kinds of gold, despite huge, a huge numbers of a soldiers there, but also a huge security in terms of the fire power emissions available to russian forces are obviously jealous and not freely able to move around there, and so it's difficult to verify, but just the fact that there are ukraine trips still inhibited and yet the russians haven't been able to host their flag over the charges that will be seen as a victory here and give, okay. did over correspondent ne connelly and keith. thank you. well, despite the latest attacks and keys, there are some bright sports right now. ukraine's national football team is playing against wales in cottage for a spot in the world cup on did abuse. rebecca richards is soaking in the atmosphere at a pub in kiva. rebecca that tell us that what's that moonlight i'm

having a lot of trouble hearing you, eddie. so i hope that i'm getting this bid right. i've met you odd to me now, but it is pretty 10 here. i'll give you that. but it's quite different from the tension that we've felt in the city or in the recent recent mountain. it is a nice for pre, for people here who are able to, to enjoy some, some normalcy in the football. one of those people i is yury and he joins me now. you're a just how important is today's match for ukraine? it's really important much for us because it's a to find a much before we can go to the world cup and it's really important for the speech, chrome war theme or something more pleasant. draw the ones all today. rochester. i 7 measles, 6 years old. ok. we're still here and we are trying to draw our lives and the thrive distributional santa multiply them for us, then the war. now we're just coming back from half time and whales is one up. how do you think the country will react if they don't make it very to the well and help today?

i think we will handle some calls this situation because this is not the biggest problem our nowadays. and this was just a football. there'll be another opportunity for us or blair, the world paw iraq op. so this is not the end of the world for us. right. thank you very much. we certainly wish you luck for the 2nd half and you so any there you have it a nice light reprieve of people here who've been through pretty intense day with shelling in the morning to be able to enjoy some normalcy. and i'm watching the football and everyone here hoping that ukraine will make it to the world cup. okay, rebecca, thanks for that. that garrett as they're in keys, many banks, some breaking news just coming in dozens of worship. as i said that after gunmen open fire to church and i jerry the attackers targets at a catholic church in or in on the state in the south west. the dead include

children, local media reports, and not a government that need that explosives and shot indiscriminately at the congregation. the church was busy for pain to close to sunday. my dear, that military is battling you have this insurgency, but attacks are rare in the on the region. i'm now joined by did of you correspondent or mark, i'll call you in leaders america. what more can you tell us about the attack? had he, i think today's one of those days that he just, we're called to. here's one of those news that of course nobody has spent so here as he did mention there. yes. on identified, gone man, which is now almost poppy lassie and now sadly nigeria stuff that catholic church in our to day and then you know, how many people have been killed over 50 as we do including children? last he did mention that a yes. what we, what we had is that they did detonate some as blossom to scare the people, but from the image is coming out they, it's clearly people who were shot at and targeted at a close range. and we've seen,

we've heard all the information that a lot of them have been hospitalized. those who are still alive, they're asking for blood donation, you know, to see what more can be done to save them. and if you look again at the images from what we've seen at that place, it's close to the palace. we don't know if that has any connection, but that this kind of place that you suppose you would say, it's supposed to be as simple as what, unfortunately, this has happened show in how you know, are insecure. the country is especially like you did mention on does. it is one of those that has been relatively peaceful, butts. today the story has changed and there are scores of people who don't the numbers. we can a certain yet that have been cured and others seriously injured as we speak now in hospital. and really it is as you see him because most of the previous attacks have been taking place in been not west. so this is a bit of i'm, are, are normally, if i can see my, this signal, eat disturbing widening of the violence. and he was clearly

points to is the fact that i mean no part of the country is safe in the past would say, well, some of this is sort of killings they're very common in the north. unfortunately though, we have to see that, you know, or recently we're also so an increase in the killings and that adds by unidentified gunman. but today i think that narrative has changed. and that's quite worry in our when, if you listening to the statement from the state governor, he did mention that at this is not a sort of things that they are saying that he called it a sunset tonic or a devilish attack. but the problem is that insecurity is increasing by the day and nowhere is safe and no place is exempt from these. and that's what this clearly suggests. and even as the run up into election says in it is quite worried to see this sort of attacks and broad daylights, you know, targets in people. soft churches been soft targets and places like that. it's quite, we're in a mark, i'll call you in lagos. thank you,

let's now look out some other stories making headlines around a world fire has killed at least 49 people and injured more than a 100 others at contina debrel in south east in bangladesh, among the casualties our firefighters and police officers who rushed to the scene, the belief that triggered multiple exclusions greek fire fighters have been battling a blaze near the capita lathan for the 2nd day. authorities see that while the flames have subsided, the oppression is still ongoing. the fire was apparently sparked by an incident that a power station some carson houses have been damaged. some tennis now, and raphael, no doubt, has won the french open men's singles title after defeating cost by rude in straight sets of when over rude. who is the 1st no way just to ever reach a grand slam final gifts. the king of clee record extending 14th title at roland garris. and it also apps his record to $22.00 grand slam titles to more than his

nearest rivals. britons, queen elizabeth has rounded of celebrations, mark and have platinum jubilee with a personal appearance and majesty the light that royal fans light even from the balcony at buckingham palace. britain has been a joint for the weekend to mock the queen's 70 years of the thrill she was largely absent from the festivities because of the health. the queen's golden coordination carriage was the attraction of the spectacular part of wrapping up a string of nationwide pirates st. parties dw correspondence. charlotte's chelsea pill is in london for as a low salad. seeing the queen on the balcony, was probably the highlight of the day. how excited was the crowd to see. he was a sterling culmination to the 4 days of events for the many,

many thousands of people. he spent the day outside buckingham palace to day in the millions watching at home as well. this was a surprise, though appearance. it hadn't been expected. as you say, she had had to drop out from a number of events over the course of the weekend, she'd cited the fact she'd experience him discomfort on the 1st day when we did manage to see her a few times. we've seen her family, the next generation, instead in her place at several these events, but seeing her to day as they wrapped up events really was the icing on the cake for so many people at the end of this weekend. yeah, and let's, let's talk about how important the queen is asking, unifying figure to that country because she clearly isn't she yeah, this is, she is hugely popular in this country. it has to be said, all the polls point in that direction. for those who love the queen, there is

a magic all of this pomp and circumstance that you seen over the last few days. many respects her for her sense of duty. her warmth and her humour, all of which have been on display over the last 4 days. and you really do have to bear in mind as while, even for those who are more ambivalent towards the royal family, that this is a very significant market. she is the longest serving monarch in british history, and i think most people kind of respect that at least as a marker, there is also the fact of course as well. it's been a difficult few years. a lot of people really taking the chance to enjoy these 4 days of celebrations and the chance to reflect as well on 7 to years of this constant, the british queen on the throne. quickly before you go 4 days of massive celebrations, what really stuck out for you? that's a really good question. i think the so many people as well would agree that it is seeing the royal family on the balcony, whole trip. my 3 may, we've got,

we've got some blogs off, don't touch clearly go one fine. harry, rightly we will have to pay half of them, right? we'll, we'll, we'll let you go now and i did of your corresponding shallow, shall some fail in london. thank you very much. i with some interruption, but that's all for now. ok, next. well, stories a week and rip force, we have all coming up on the top of the hour. so tuesday tooth, lou, what people have to say matters to us. mm. that's why we listen to their stories reporter every weekend on d. w. it is a secret war in the scene endless one axis of the conflict between iran
