9:01 am
reports of fresh trash atrocities in ethiopia put the african country civil war. back in the spotlight. she w news visits the aftermath of the ethnic fighting and ethiopia snores the fine traumatized residence and accounts of others being held in a cabin under inhumane conditions. and germany is premier global art show. the documentary covers up one of its works after complaints of anti semitic stereotypes . ah, mix spicer welcome to the program. as the war and ukraine enters his 4th month president blood of his lensky is dispelling hopes of negotiations with russia any time soon. in his latest video address, soleski called russia's aggression, an evil that can only be contained on the battlefield. ukraine says russia is
9:02 am
stepping up its attacks in the eastern dumbass region with ukrainian troops doing everything possible to hold their ground. authority said rushes advantage and arms and equipment was making the situation very difficult. but in his nightly address on mondays, lensky remained defiant. yet. yeah, he put it, but child or she, russia is very nervous about our activity. will there be more shelling of how keith and odessa to have be more brutal assaults in the don bus civil? this is an evil. i can only be defeated on the battlefield. that machine were defending lucy chanced and 7 o 2. and yet, only this whole region is the most difficult ship. these are the hardest fights and let's bring in nic carnally from a key. for now, nick, evil can only be defeated on the battlefield. those are some fighting words from a president who's by his own admission, is having a trouble getting the arms he needs to fight the war. that's definitely the case,
9:03 am
but i think that was a siegel here from key of also to the west, and particularly to western european countries that ukraine is basically not gonna be willing to talk to russia until those russian troops are forced back to where they were on february 24th at the beginning of this war, there had been different fears here in case that there would be an attempt by maybe france, germany, italy, when we had that visit of the leaders 3 leaders to care of last week trying to force ukraine to some kind of compromises to basically end this war and hurry to end this, a spike in energy prices and basic get back to businesses normal with russia at the cost of ukraine and its territorial integrity. that it ukraine feels a vindicated, relieved that that didn't happen, that they were able to make their case. and with support from the u. s. and the u. k. prevent a kind of diplomatic initiative from western european countries into forcing ukraine, basically to play to russia's terms. but it is definitely a very difficult situation for ukraine. right now. they are able to hold up the
9:04 am
front lines and russia is making gains, but very modest gains, but fact, a disproportionate terms of the results as russia has some say, 10 to one in terms of artillery. that is definitely that is costing ukrainian lugs and nick, you were mentioning the e u, and of course there was a troika of european union leaders promised to support canada c status for the, for ukraine to the european union as a decision coming up thursday friday. howard membership, when it comes, change the change the country and what is the candidacy mean to, to zalinski and ukrainians of the membership is something that a vast majority of ukrainian citizens want all the sociology shows that massive majority for that here it would basically end decades long speculation about where ukraine is going for the most of its independence. ukraine is basically being a buffer zone between russia and western europe. and the u and bases been spent spending its time rather than co developing its economy. stuck with these kind of
9:05 am
geopolitical questions. so that would put those to bed once and for all. and so you be a huge economic boost and open the door to a huge investment in this country that has historically underperformed. and you know, still has some of the lowest average incomes in europe. and even just being a candidate would already put ukraine on a road map, forced reforms that would bring in investments way before eventual membership. we've seen that in poland, in the baltic states in neighboring romania. so even before you can becomes a member that would have an impact, it would be felt by ordinary ukrainians. pretty soon. okay, in the connelly reporting for us from keith, thanks for that. since the beginning of the war, volunteers across ukraine had been doing their part for the war effort. some are turning to recycling to help save soldiers light. to find out more about how it's done. d. w is rebecca readers travel to southern ukraine to the region around mc alive. this all junkyard is a junkyard. no more. when war broke out, volunteers took over the space and turned it into a military workshop. dimmer is
9:06 am
a sound engineer and voice of the artist. now he makes flak, jackets moves across number, little of it, with a bullet. proof vests were requested. hm. kilograms. so we decided to try and make some, a small number from 30 pieces. we wanted to raise 47000 her. if near for that. sure, people wrote so connected that we raised 150000 in the 1st 3 to 4 days so, so he made 3 times as many of the your mazda, but on the word. so far they've sent more than $700.00 of the vests to the front lines. places like hunt, keith turner, his and mc alive, there's recycling involved and the work looks aren't, isn't all about the product is military grade level certificate. this mitchell is certified 8 millimeters thick at 1 o'clock. this rubber from a conveyor belt is screwed on top of its liam. it acts as an anti fragmentation layer where this rubber traps or splinters from the bullets we put in my of c. or, of course, if you call it the metal and rubber a bound together in strong tape,
9:07 am
and will make holcroft, ne, if a dog i work. fireproof material usually used to make sofas forms. the outer shell of the vests, just popped the pipes inside these purpose built pockets. and hey, presto, westfield, pretty good. once you get it on it quite comfortable and much lighter than you might expect, much lighter than some of the press fest i've even had to wear in the field. but the real test, of course, is going to be whether or not it can stop a bullet. the plates deflect shots from an a k 47 standard equipment for the russian army. what's a good? oh wow. well, to then city it with this. outside, he shows this old tractor wheels that will go eaten to some of the vessels.
9:08 am
soldiers arrived to pick up some for the comrades, what they learn, what kind of bullets their new body alma can stop with. a quick trip in to the shop to take what they need, and they're off to the front lines we get to save lives made in ukraine. russia is tightening its grip on the occupied regions of ukraine assigned that it has no intention of relinquishing control of these areas. the russian defense ministry says it has repaired nearly 1200 kilometers of damaged railway in the country, se the tracks link russia with the occupied areas in the don bass, harrison and crimea. it will allow moscow to send in more troops and weapons. the kremlin also announced that water is again flowing it through the north korean rather crimean canal. the canal once provided most of the peninsulas fresh water following rushes, annexation of crimea. in 2014 ukraine built a dam in the town of calen check,
9:09 am
cutting off this vital supply. russia is also attempting to rust a fire the population occupied route, or ukraine to solidifies ruler. it has been handing out russian passports and introduce the rubel as the official currency. it's also changed the telephone country code and is broadcasting russian television and enjoy now by war expert and former british army officer mike, mark martin for more on this mike, it appears that russia is seeking to annex the occupied territories completely. what are the chances of success? good morning. i think that the chance of success are going to be bedevilled by the same problem that the russians have had throughout the war. not not having enough troops for what they seek to do. if we look around the country, the moment there are 3 areas where they are fighting in the new around khaki in the us. so much about and in the south and on the he was just speaking about in order
9:10 am
to make progress in the, the russian had to take out troops from the north in the south. and so they simply just don't have enough troops to do what they want to do. and there's considerable resistance as well from the population in some places behind the front lines. how much of that is going to, is a challenge or will be a challenge for russia? exactly. i think it's already a challenge, as well as not being able to hold or make progress on different, different frontline, they hope in the south around her son. we've seen quite significant positive activity, for example, a couple of days ago that was a bomb attack against a the head of the prison service in her. so on, originally ukrainian collaborate, switch sides, the russians. so he was attacked and blown up and we're starting to see attacks on dumps behind russian lines. they simply just don't have enough troops to cope with arrested ukrainian population that doesn't one than that. and if we can just turn
9:11 am
to the, to the done bass region for a 2nd, ukrainian military officials admit themselves. this will be a decisive week. why is that? well, i would slightly caveat that the ukrainians have been saying that each week is decided in the dom bus and they're doing, i think what we do, they're using the there's a way to make sure that the west continues with its arms deliveries. having said that, in the pocket of ukrainian forces in the city of certain x, which is what we've heard so much about in the last couple of weeks, is now reduced down to one small area. so it is likely that the ukrainians are going to have to either surrender. ok, it will pull out. it's very similar actually to the situation in mary paul i'm about a month ago. but once they do that, they still homeless chance, which is the next door city, which is just across the river, and it's on top of
9:12 am
a hill. so it's much more militarily defendable. final question of him, maybe that great intangible morale, who's winning the morale war o ukraine, without a doubt and since the beginning of the war, that's been the case. that is largely down to one big factor which is that the cranes are fighting for the defense of their homeland. whereas the russians have a conscript army. in some cases that press gang civilians, the army and the differences in morale are completely very high for the ukrainians . very low. the russians. new had a piece there. that was an excellent example of that civilians who were running a factory that made something else. suddenly switch to making body armor and the ukranian troops were coming and getting that body armor having a coffee. and then going back to the front line, these the actions of a country and a military that have high morale. ok, military expert mike martin,
9:13 am
thanks so much. thank you. hundreds of thousands of ukrainians fled to germany after russia's invasion in february. now even with desperate fighting, continuing in their countries east, some ukrainians are deciding to return home to eat up. your news found out why these bosses are taking ukrainian refugees back home as the russian aggression shifted to the east of ukraine. more and more people are daring to go back to safer areas. state lima. how did sca and doctors blood and jenna are waiting for a bus to key? if a miss home, i miss our house. i want to go back to the door like i wanted to. we miss friends, mr. family, people we haven't seen of a 3 month now. and it's hard to be on the road like that all the time. with some of them, it's not even possible to connect on line. so i just want to see them for boys. but
9:14 am
their mother's diploma is warring about the trip to london, which latter wants to go home. i can't send her to keep and stay here myself from a rational point of view. it's definitely safer here because he cannot know. how will russia act done will? yep, wonderful. over 800000 ukrainian refugees have arrived in germany since rush has a talk in february. but the new arrivals have been decreasing for weeks. now more people are leaving the u back to ukraine than entering from there. i mean, my husband is a soldier. he's in a hospital now and he doesn't have any one besides us. when you that door mom. so i missed my home, my car, my garden, and i miss ukraine upstairs. okay, mr. rogers, which is great. oh, good thing. i want to see my relatives and ukraine to not,
9:15 am
but i'll come back because i come from mich alive, but, and it's close to where the battle is happening. so now i'm just going there for a short time, though with some experts now expect circular migration of the refugees. the drivers bring people in both directions. so can we drive every day from new canes and to ukraine? our company, st. 6 to 7 buses and all of them are full with 6 the people inside. finally, steve, lana and blood as bus arrives. the older daughter, shania, it's empire. well, she was staying building for a few more weeks and joined them in july. provided that is that the war doesn't make this family and others run from ukraine again. and we turned to east africa now where the death toll from a massacre in ethiopia has risen to at least $260.00 official said rebels targeted

9:19 am
destruction and looting. we found signs of t p. laugh actions, but to grind witnesses also made claims of a foreign militia aggressions. they say they're targeted and killed several to ground residence before transporting several 1000 to the regional capital samarra. the head of the u. n. h. c. r. 's field office in samarra confirmed that around 8000 people have been held at a government run camp meant to accommodate about 1500 people this on ah, national and international standards that she wrote. that's that, that she would be living on living human conditions. he says, among those detained are about 1200 children, many suffering from malnourishment. we tried to gain access to the camp, but were denied by local authorities who also refused to grant us interviews. we did, however, manage to hear from one of the people in the camp. he sent us these pictures. he
9:20 am
told us via fawn that people are suffering from diseases like scabies, diarrhea, and pneumonia. that there is not enough food and no medical care. he says 70 people, including 5 children, have died since december due to lack of medicines and food. no one knows when the border towns residence will return or if they will ever get to call a bela their home again. and for more on this, we're going to talk to collector one joe here, a journalist in ethiopian capital at his algebra class. thanks for joining us. since the outbreak of the conflict, human rights groups have reported atrocities committed by both rebel groups and ethiopian army. now we have a new tragedy in or me. what are the details that you have? well, at the moment what we know is my, the government says it's still working on investigating what really happened there or marriage and where we have seen people, especially from the amera ethnic group having been targeted. and the government sees it as security. and i'm sure that the region there is really under,
9:21 am
under control. and it is one of the companies that the government is really battling with, alongside the other one, the northern region. and at the moment we, we just have both sides blaming each other. we've seen the that the side of, of the rebels normally variation army, he's saying that it's not that they're not responsible or blaming the government, but the government saying that as a government, they cannot, they cannot do the 2nd is their own citizens. so that matter is under under investigations right now and that you and i've also spoken about it with, antonia would say, is there your secretary general saying that the government needs to investigate and ensure that this kind of achilles don't happen. and just last week, the philippine president of the arguments said he was ready to consider talks with the to grey people's liberation front. and now one of its partners allegedly committed this latest massacre. does that jeopardize the prospect of peace talks? well, i think we're with the aspect of that the northern region where the government was talking about a pistol stack,
9:22 am
that was the prime minister explained to parliament that the government is willing to look into what is it called having a study committee that would look into the nitty gritty of the details that would be required for p 4 p stocks to happen. what would it take in a way that does not do your part as national security? and that was in particular the issue in the northern region, which is that the g p a left, right, which is a beach separate from the issue of the oral miano mia region could set to different regions. so with that, the gum, we're waiting for what a report from what the gum and say is a study committee that he's supposed to give feedback to the government and probably not in some few days. and then we'll see what, what, what steps will the government take because they're already in dallas, at the expedient has provide and said they want nairobi to hold the talks and to, to facilitate. but we still have to have the to, well, what we can call water flushes agreeing and getting a compromise. so until the government gets its results from the study committee, them can be able to know what, what's, what's, what kind of piece talks if any they want. but so far, we can see at least that his appetite hope he stops, which gives somehow ok colette or one joe he,
9:23 am

pete will take over his prime minister until a new government is sworn in, buckwheat on every 5 years. the document of art exhibition in the german city of castle showcases modern and contemporary works from around the world. but at the current show, one of those works has now been hidden from public view. a giant banner depicting anti semitic stereotypes to portray jewish israelis has been condemned by officials and organizers. this is the image that is causing widespread controversy. a hooked nose fangs, and bloodshot eyes, paired with the site carls traditionally warned by ultra orthodox juries. the image is part of a work of art by the indonesian collective tart, p 80 i. it took center stage at the document to holland castle. these, this building does is he had skate this illustration clearly has and he semitic imagery. there's protection against anti semitism as well as protection against racism and any form of misanthropy of fundamental human values,
9:25 am
ones or any of those values aren't respected then the freedom of expression in art has its limitations. i had eli gunther in the same work of art, a man with a pigs noses depicted as a member of massage. he israeli foreign intelligence service. this too is an anti semitic stereotype. the israeli embassy reacted by tweeting documents it promotes global style propaganda. mary mandel is the director of the anne frank educational center. he's equally appalled and demands that the artwork be removed by the ship. we also need to question exactly how such a picture was created in the 1st place. and then how it was allowed such a prominent place in the exhibition or the ins on holeman entered dots in there, i watched him in the lower part of the artwork. our depictions of massacres and genocides, the holocaust is notably missing. the central council of jews has been highly critical of this. they said document as organizer is guaranteed,
9:26 am
there would be nothing anti semitic in this year's exhibition. clearly, the organizers have failed when it comes to the topic of anti semitism. the exhibition has denied any connection with anti semitism and apologize for any hurts caused the controversial artwork will remain at documentary. however, it will remain hidden from visitors from to day onwards. behind huge panels of heavy cloth with the world beset by challenges such as climate change, an armed conflict. one thing that how can help a saw the might be yoga. that's the message from india's prime minister, nor under a modi on international yoga day. and devotees have been showing how it's done will leave you with these images of yoga being practiced around the world. ah,
