lose behind the benefits and why are they a threat to whistle opaque wolves this week on d w? ah ah ah, this is dw news coming to live from berlin. russia tells ukrainian fighters in a sea better than that chemical plant to surrender, but it says civilians will be allowed to leave by at the humanitarian corridor. as the battle for port full control of the city rages are also coming up. what happened to alexander and his fellow captives,

these alleged war crimes. they happened here on the ground when no one could hear their cries, all the blows of the russian soldiers. but not all the crimes into place in this city happened on the ground. some happened right up here in broad daylight. d, w goes to a ukrainian town, the spent a month under russian occupation. ah . hello, i'm terry martin. good to have you with us. a russian deadline for ukrainian fighters holding out at a chemical plant in the eastern city of soviet originates to surrender, has passed. a spokesman for per russian separatists in the region says if they don't lay down their weapons, they'll face death. meanwhile, russia says it's establishing a humanitarian corridor to evacuate an estimated $500.00 millions who been

sheltering at the plant. it says they'll be taken to the russian controlled town of spotter ball. with all bridges leading from spear, jeanette destroyed, ukrainian troops now risk being encircled in the city or earlier i spoke with t w's roman gun shariska in kip. i asked him if the humanitarian corridor offered by russia was the only option for civilians to leave the city. also, most people, yes. the planning authority said a few days ago varies no possibility for evacuation by bridge by land. but some people very few numbers could try and cross the river sailors quay than he asked to the 2 in seat of lease a chance which is on the ukrainian control. but there is heavy shelling and there is a risk for life though. those people who has trapped in this even city of several don't ask, will try to escape through the russian controlled church, or they will have to go through the so called filtration camps. maybe they will be deported or moved to russia and maybe later, some of them will have, will,

will have an opportunity to go to ukraine. like, just like, like we've seen you in the city of mar, you po, a few weeks ago. but generally, the situation is getting worse day by day hour by out. the war in ukraine is not the same conflict that it was 4 months ago. the fighting is now focused on the eastern on bass region where it's turned into an artillery duel, a slow and costly war of attrition. what kiera needs most now are heavy weapons. ukraine has received upwards of 300 artillery pieces from the west, with more than with moral the way. this is the m 777 howitzer war than a 100. that these have arrived from the united states. they allow ukrainians to shoot farther, and in some places out gun russian forces more than 40 rock multiple rocket launchers have arrived in ukraine from the west. keith is eagerly awaiting delivery of several of these m $270.00 rocket systems from britain. these can fire much

farther than conventional artillery and with greater precision. germany has also promised to supply rocket launchers along with self propelled howitzers like this, and he aircraft guns and surface to air missile systems. but we don't know if any of it has been delivered. how much to the prostration of keith. smaller countries have been making generous contributions. poland alone has sent more than 230 t 72 tanks, the czech republic, more than 61 armored personnel carriers and 14 fighter jets from bulgaria or in the skies over ukraine. for more, i'm joined by mike martin. he's a war and conflict researcher and a former british army officer. mike, we just seen an overview of the weaponry the ukraine has received so far. how does that compare to what ukraine actually needs? hi, good morning. the ukraine government on mondays just

a couple of days ago announced that they need up to a 1000 artillery paces a 1000 drawings as well, and up to 500 tanks. so the numbers that you quoted that just 200 all 3 pieces, making it to ukraine. well, short of that, i think as well, the important thing to consider with artillery is that the logistical requirements ammunition are huge. it's very possible to borrow a shipping containers, but by mission in a very short period of time. many native countries are clearly willing to supply ukraine with weapon, equipments and munitions. but do these alliance members really have the stocks available to supply ukraine with what it means? in terms of the artillery pieces on drugs? yes, they do try. you can buy the shells. i'm so that fairly easy to get hold of 2 pieces

. a 1000 or 3 pieces. well with the stocks of nice members. ammunition is it could be a more difficult question, but i would say even that is with the stocks that if you look across the entire nice lines as well, didn't folks available? and what about commercial providers? mike, how much could the arms industry deliver to ukraine and what sort of barriers are there for the industry to do that? well, if we take a country like britain, for example, the military and the defense logistics organizations have very close long standing relationships with industry in the the defense industry used to be government control is just now in the private sector. so these long standing relationships are already keyed up, if you like to increase production in a time of war, such as this one on the 23 months. and so one of those requests made in

the beginning of the war, which i believe they were, that will be starting to come on line. so again, i don't see that some of these new weapon systems from the west are quite sophisticated. ukrainian troops need special training in order to operate them. that takes time. how does that factor into things strategically? if you hit the nail on the head, the bottom line is not necessarily the weapon systems, it's the training. so previously in the conflicts ukraine was asking for anti tank weapons. and these you can deliver these literally in a suitcase or a box, and you can read the instruction manual and then the troops can use them all to do systems are completely different. ordinarily, we would expect take maybe 6 months to try to crew out to replace. obviously that's unrealistic. now the training courses are being reduced down to a week or 10 days, but that means the gradient trips have to be taken out. try in some my life,

poland or even in britain and then those ukrainians go back to you kind of become trained as the ukranian troops. so at least 2 week or one month lag in getting those systems operational on the front line. mike, thank you very much. for talking with us for your insights, that's military analyst like martin. so now ukrainian forces have managed to push back russian troops from several areas in places like boot shot air pin earned, borrowed younger evidence of atrocities have been found. authorities are now investigating over $15000.00 suspected cases of war crimes crossed unions, is a town in northern ukraine that spent a month under russian occupation. d. w. rebecca ritters went there and heard harrowing stories from residence the trust in yet train station, or what's left of it for more than

a month. russian troops used it as their headquarters. it was from here, alexander tells me that they carried out some of their crimes. when it was a while, they say the russians were based right there, where we're going bomb shelter, thoughts were we going from the made them on exam, the an auto mechanic says the russians came in the night and pulled him straight out of bed. some towns, men, he says, were killed on the spot, but he and a handful of others were brought down here into the station's basement, federal until those i was sitting right in the corner, i was beaten here before him. a miss ball was painted by another guys blood. his head was smashed with the boots of a gun, and his hands were tied behind his back. he tried to get up and left the blood mox . but though so thought e, bruce for groom. that man survived. this video shows his body and maybe his mind were badly scarred,

little to the fate of some fellow prisoners is unknown beery, but vocal news as a colonel of ukrainian army was brought to you. they beat him badly and interrogated him. they took him some way and he never came back with his. we don't know where he is looking for him. use a shuttle word. what happened to alexander and his fellow captives? these alleged war crimes. they happened here under ground, when no one could hear their cries or the blows of the russian soldiers. but not all the crimes that took place in this city happened on the ground. some happened right up here in broad daylight. the laws of war prohibit attacks on civilians and torture, as well as attacks on hospitals to live. there was a direct hit from a tank, they were position there and they were shooting at us. the little ana shifts over the hospitals. director says the russians knew what they were doing,

roughly my of the early play us thing. we have no explanation for this. if there was a big hospital sign, we had a big white flag with a red cross really, but it would, it didn't matter to them at all. no, malia was nurturing a doctor shifts over, says the 2 nights before the russians left trusty nets were the worst. the hospital was pounded without. stop. the patients and doctors were forced to take refuge under ground. bookman adroitly wicked, don't you little. she remembers that a baby was born. the sick and wounded continued to receive treatment. many people prayed that when i from warner 3, i think there is a god in his world. there is justice, kindness will prevail some day. we will never forgive them for this. for our tears, for the little children we carried out in our arms, these women with tears in their eyes. the grandmothers who cried her, you have to pay for everything in this life. and they will pay to that. what doctor
