ukrainian forces to surrender your claims. present of a lot of reasons. he says, ukraine is outgunned in one of the bloodiest battles of the war and has pleaded with western allies to send more long range weapons, bridges destroyed, the city of severity. nats is now almost cutoff. authorities say they're still able to evacuate the wounded. but the situation for those still left is worsening and fast. st. battles, a raging in the eastern city, the governor of the region says it's mostly under russian control. much of severity nets has been destroyed. authorities believe more than $500.00 civilians, including children, a sheltering at the vast as that chemical plant. they say the plant is under heavy bombardment from russian forces. moscow and pro russian separatists in the region have issued an ultimatum to the ukrainian troops. still holding out in the city.

there was given the ukrainian military unit so that the station there remain there for ever. what they have 2 options, either followed the example of their colleagues and surrender youth or die who loved. they have no other option or would input from them. but the ukrainian president remains defiant. my mom was role. we're dealing with absolute even in my mom. and we have no other choice but to move forward if she will not free our entire territory. why do kick the occupies out of all outreach al serra and elbow. now the width of our front has already more than 2500 kilometers. you can feel that the strategic initiative is still on our side or in pavilion, a nearby town to the north, west of severity nets, ukrainian police race to bring civilians to safety, many of them elderly. they didn't want to leave their home. now they have no choice but to go. meanwhile, russian forces announced they will establish a humanitarian corridor on wednesday to evacuate civilians from that chemical plant

and severe donuts. here is it, of course one. has it been in russia's in chief with the details? well indeed, it was an announcement i made earlier today by the russian minister of defense that they were ready to evacuate. the civilians who are trapped in dark chemical plants . so if the assets chemical plant instead ordones are bad as we've just heard into report there were, there were also dos, separatist who are saying doubt ukraine and sold is only how the choice to surrender or to die. now these, my remind you of a situation we know very well, sadly. now is that of murder, you call where they were, you create and forces trap along with civilians in our power in as teal plan this time in mario ball, and now we are in doubt situation where civilians need direly need to be evacuated from city or don yes, but under which conditions will depend on those soldiers to renders. this is not

quite clear yet what we know tonight. it is completely cut off from the rest of your crania and forces at the 3 bridges of the city has been destroyed and up to 80 percent of the city is now under russian control. and the ukrainian president describe the situation is very dire. and again, he's urging allies to send more heavy weapons and ammunition. what exactly do we know about the state of the ukrainian forces? well, what we know is roger, what the ukranian forces do not have to fight and that's heavy weapons. and president thought odaimi zalinski really criticized the western allies for being too wisc, trained in their decision making a what is a matter of diplomacy for western power is a matter of life and death for ukrainians. a here on the ground who are paying was

the price of blood. we've had some figures for the ministry of defense here in ukraine, of up to a 100 soldiers dying. ukrainian sold is dying every day since the beginning of the war. and we even had the presidential adviser who gave a list of things that were needed by the ukraine, the army, a quite concrete, like a quite straightforward lease that was published on twitter with 500 tanks at 200. 2000 are more vehicles at 1000 jones, just to give you an idea as to how a desperate ukraine ease now to receive the weapons as promised by the west w respondents, that many russia reporting from key ukraine. and i think the united nation says more than 7000000 people have left ukraine since the war began around 100000 have found refuge in bulgaria. many have been staying in hotels on

the block, black sea coast. well, now they're having to make way for summer visitors to abuse. funny fish, our reports are tom to get moving again. everyone here fled from ukraine. months ago, now they are being relocated from bulgaria scotia to state facilities across the country. how long they will stay is unclear nozzle magic made. it's very hard was to children. there is no where i can just leave them there on the move with me. up until june, about 60000 refugees were staying in these hotels along the bulgarian black sea. but just before the summer season will gary or use the compensation to hotel operators from 20 yours per refugee per day to 8. the director of these hotel complexes that's not nearly enough to cover their costs. they also took well national glowing business. it's clear, this is our business tourism,

so there was no way they could stay on during the summer season. is wrong. due to lack of seasonal workers, he decided to keep some ukraine in refugee, san carina, and marina put a panko are among those who can stay before the war. they managed a flower business in hockey. now they are getting trained how to set a lunch table, closing up a coupling. it's difficult to plan at all. we don't know what will happen tomorrow, but we plan to stay here for the summer season and work it up. what they they fled with their children, their husbands in ukraine could be drafted at any time they say as a chest, it's hard for us to process everything because we are full of sorrow for our country. national fennel will guerria is in dire need of taurus. russian tourists were one of the biggest groups of foreign visitors where they are staying away due to sanction. it's unclear how many welcome but some

here are happy that refugees are now being accommodated elsewhere. but mental, so i think we helped enough it is not necessary to help them any more could have been the issue of ukrainian refugees is increasingly polarizing will gary in society. there's still a lot of solidarity in the capital. sophia, this demonstration is of coal. her health, this people here say in war against ukraine is unjustified yet will show about one 3rd of will. harriann still maintain a positive attitude towards fulton. and sociology estimators gun of says that the longer rushes war against ukraine continues, the harder it will be to maintain solidarity with ukraine pope to bowl soon as dog will, slid the dog knob for loud of a crow bush and voices gets all the worse for you. crating refugees will feel him.

gary, a whole body of marina carino know little about the ongoing debate about their status . they try to provide moments of joy to their children on the other side of the c ukraine, where the war ages on the german government says it's placing the former germans subsidiary of russian energy, giant gas brom, into long term administration. the move is aimed as securing europe's energy supply, emit ongoing sanctions. berlin already took gas prom germania into temporary administration earlier this year. now it will provide a 10000000000 euro loan to the company to prevent it from going bank. it's also changed his name. a company runs critical energy infrastructure in germany. russia's gas prom severed all ties to the firm after germany slap sanctions on russia following its invasion of ukraine. did it be a correspondent? i'm a sparrows explained why the german government is taking long term control of the

company. and the key word you mentioned it is long term germany had already at the beginning of april, basically announced short term control of gas from germany. i had previously belong to the russian gas from a group of back that in april, germany decided to put it in into its own hands, at least in a short term. what is happening now, not only with that decision, but also with that load that you mention, is that that control will be maintained on a long term. the reason behind this layla is essentially because germany considers gas from romania to play a very important role in gas supply in the country gas transport. for example, german government officials stressing that gasp, romania essentially operates critical infrastructure here in the country. so this decision is on the one hand to maintain that long term control of a gas from germania, but also to ensure supply here in germany. a key goal of the german government has

had, right since the beginning of the war in ukraine. now, thomas coincidentally, but in a separate development, the former russian owner gas from has announced it's reducing natural gas deliveries to germany are germany and the unit facing the possibility of shortages . germany in particular is obviously following closely these develop months. they are, the german officials did stress that supply here in the country is guaranteed that it was a rather short statement by germany's economy ministry. but they're obviously following developments very closely to try and understand whether this reduction in supply is a temporary measure is something more long times or what the exact reasoning is behind and then how germany can essentially prepare for the consequences. so for now, what we've heard from german officials is that supply is guaranteed,

and that they're monitoring the situation very carefully. political correspondent, thomas ferro reporting thank you, thomas. thousands of trucks filled with ukrainian grain rather are struggling to find new routes for exports. many of them remain stranded like these on the side of the road in odessa. shipping out from odessa support has become impossible. russia has blocked regular shipping routes from the black sea. and ukraine has laid mines near port cities to prevent russia from advancing by sea. but much of the world relies on grain from ukraine to feed their own population. and in countries like lebanon's supplies of wheat are becoming worryingly low cues for bread start early like at this bakery in the southern part of lebanon's capital bay root. it's baker mohammed has hardly anything left to sell. bread is

becoming scarce in lebanon. the bakers are running out of flower or not that even the pain model that we used almost all the flour we had today for baking and i la, so after 2 hours there is no more bread, not here, nor in the other branches of them. there is no bread in the supermarket either of time. in fact, this way be less but a marcus motley if he it was there was a shortage of flour. supplies are also running low at wholesalers previously around $25.00 tons were sold every day here. but now wholesale or robbie, i can only deliver up to one ton each day and supplies will soon run out. a large part of lebanon's wheat came from ukraine and russia as did sunflower oil. now, new suppliers are urgently needed. almost for the government has to secure loans and find alternatives to ukrainian wheels on it and we need storage and other problems that we lost our wheat silos in the explosion that happened at the port of beirut. there was no longer a place to store wheat or puffy mikaela that was in love. the devastating explosion

in beirut port almost 2 years ago not only destroyed the wheat silos, but people's confidence in politics. here, the country is experiencing an economic crisis. the currency is in free fall. food prices have risen by more than 600 per cent bread prices have also multiplied. the world bank has promised lebanon a $1000000.00 loan for wheat, but the money hasn't arrived yet. having a very serious concern. that is, a russia claim, crisis continues to grow, and we import about 80 percent of our wheat from russia, and you claim we don't have any national deserves in lebanon. the last bread of the day is coming out of the ovens overseen by the baker mohammed. he doesn't know if he'll have flour again to morrow, even though russia has supposedly promised to release week deliveries. there was still no sign of them in lebanon. hallel

well above philip, we demand a solution for this country were fed up the recall and the people are emigrating because it's no longer possible to live here. there's not even bread. i big something with with a those and the living that the flower. i would, it would, it would. now, we are to create those, you know, the people of lebanon, fear that very soon, there will simply be no more bread. now to the other stories in the headlines at this hour, allies of jailed russia, opposition leader alexis, of all, he says he's been transferred to an undisclosed location and they don't know where he is. mister valley's scene here in file footage is serving an 11 year sentence. fort charge is widely seen as political most politically motivated. is supporters have voice concern for his safety record flooding has forced to yellowstone national park in the u. s. to close,

one house on the yellow stone river was swept away by the torrents. taurus have been stranded and communities am in montana and wyoming cut off after the flat waters knocked out roads and bridges. dozens of members of a former opposition party in cambodia have been convicted of treason. it's the latest and a number of mass trials that have targeted the cambodian national rescue party. critics say the south east asian country has been reduced to a one party state, got a mechanic republic of congo as military has accused neighboring lawanda of launching an invasion after a rebel group captured a key border town of congo says will want us supports the rebel fighters, thousands of flat fighting in the area in recent months on the was vowing to defend its territory. marking a dramatic escalation and tensions between the 2 countries. and staying in the

region, the u. k. government is insisting that a flight taking asylum seekers to wanda will go ahead in the coming hours despite condemnation from human rights groups. and last minute legal challenges, a convoy thought to be carrying people do to be deported has arrived at a military airport. the flight is said to take them to their will. wand and capitol . golly, almost 7000 kilometers away. asylum seekers already living there. paint a bleak picture of what awaits you arrivals. dw is london correspond, berrigan moss told me earlier. there is a strong opposition to this policy, but one group of voters supports it. it's interesting layla, a recent opinion. paul has found that a lot of the conservative versus actually a majority are supporting this policy. however, there has been

a lot of outrage and a lot of debate publicly r protesters have been trying to stop the convoys that are you porting the asylum seekers to the airport. the at church leaders there that was mentioned in the report they have come together. they have said that this is an immoral practice that shames britain. there were, celebrities were trying to urge the, the, the airlines not to not to participate in this and a petition. and you know, if you watch it online every minute, there it's, it's, it, somebody else is, is signing it also urging the government to stop it over 800160000 m signature so far. so there is a lot of debate and what unites most people that are, are publicly very loud about it, is that they say that this is just a policy that is morally wrong. how was the government offending its policy?

the government has really been put under spots a lot of publicly in the last days we've had foreign secretary list trust saying that it's not the it's not the policy that is immoral, but it's actually the people smugglers. it's there is people who help other people across the channel in boats and that costs lives. and she says this is necessary as any terran because britain wants to be seen as a country. that is, is not well coming of to, to, to do the, to many people that they want to create in an old town that was used years ago, kind of hostile environment at least towards what they call illegal migrants. now the people that are crossing the channel are people that usually have ties, family ties, britain, and that they want to come to the u. k. but they are hoping basically to make it

very, very unattractive. the u. k. as a country because people who, who are coming in in this way, who are crossing, why the channel, they are now facing the possibility of being deported to rhonda. and why rwanda, the british government has an agreement with randa and rhonda has, has agreed to you to do this. obviously they are, they're receiving money for it and a spokeswoman for the run. the government has said that ronda wants to show that african countries can also be part of, of the solution of problems are as the british government is facing and that they are presenting a safe and, and welcoming environment for asylum seekers. or however, human rights watch, the human rights and g o has, has criticized. the rounder has publicly said that, for example, a critics of the government and journalists are being thrown in jail and are being

silenced. and that the run and government needs to look into the treatment and abuse of these political prisoners. so it's, are, you know, conte controversial choice to bring people to rhonda many thanks. i big master reporting from london, greatly appreciated and asylum seekers already living their paint. a bleak picture of what awaits the new arrivals at transit center in wonder these refugees tried to reach europe, but did not succeed. many of them ended up spending years in detention centers in libya before being relocated here. one of them is peter, naomi. 8 years ago he said south sudan amid the country civil war. he was moved here last year by the united nations refugee agency, but does not want to stay. i just want to go ahead with his, it'll walk in and i would just go back to northville space. one does one of the

least developed countries in the world. peter and ione hopes for a better future elsewhere. he feels bad for the migrant center wonder under the recent deal because they must apply for asylum here. the u. k. g of menu the my mistake to them you that human being are you really? you cannot tell them. going to stay here or gone buddhism nor because if they feel better in you, ok you case, but to for the. but the u. k. government disagrees. it insists the policies needed to stop a flood of all too often deadly megan crossings of the channel from france. it's very important. we get that we're going, we show that people trafficking doesn't work and we're able to reduce the costs over time over legal immigration and the, and i, to kingdom the un high commissioner for refugees has called the plans catastrophic

. this is all wrong, this deal for so many different reasons. the precedent that these creates these catastrophic for the concept that needs to be shared like asylum. this hostile and wanda's capital kigali is expected to house the 1st migrants sent under the u. k. agreement. it's general manager said it was not a prison despite tight security measures and opinion that may not be shared by some of the new arrivals. spain is dealing with the earliest heat wave to hit since the 1980s. a cloud of hot air from north africa has sent temperature soaring above for you to grow 40 degrees celsius. across large parts of the country. authorities are warning of an extreme risk of wild fires. scientists say climate change is making heat waves more frequent and more intense the
