robes to be annihilated, ah, even 77 years after the holocaust hatred towards jews, it is still pervasive. a history of anti semitism starts july 2nd on d w a. ah ah, this is dw news life from berlin, ukraine's president rural sag talks with moscow anytime soon. as russia pours resources into it's don boss offensive volunteers the landscape colds, russian aggression and evil. i can only be contained on the battlefield. also

coming up a diplomatic crisis escalate between russia and lithuania, moscow demanding that the nato member left a rail blockade on sanctioned goods to russia's colon and grad x. ladies and gentlemen, done all right, $100000000.00. a nobel peace prize smashes records at auction. the owner, a russian journalist, is raising money for ukrainian child refugees. also coming up south korea blasts off into the club of space faring nations. a domestically made rocket successfully launches and places its payload into orbit. but what does that mean for the region? ah, i am pablo folios. welcome to the program. as the war in you train enters,

it says to months, president valid. amir zalinski is dispelling hopes of negotiations with russia any time soon in his latest video address, the landscape, cold rushes, aggression, and evil that can be contained only on the battlefield. ukrainian authority say they're racing to evacuate people as russia steps up its attacks. in the eastern dumbass region, they said rushes advantage in arms and equipment was making the situation very difficult. but in his nightly address on monday, zalinski remained to find a yucky, but at which of course she, russia is very nervous about our activity. there has been more shelling of ha keith and odessa to have be more brutal of salts in the dawn bus civil. this is an evil that can only be defeated on the battlefield. that machine were defending, losing chance, and settled on yet. only this whole region is the most difficult issue. these are the hardest fight. well, the job is nick conley is covering this story in keys,

and i asked him how zalinski might believe russia could be stuffed on the battlefield with ukraine running short of ammunition for its forces. this is definitely about playing for time until those crucial western deliveries. finally, make themselves felt on the front lines. lots of stuff promised from the u. s. from germany from the u. k. and it is finally arriving. question of training for ukrainian troops. make sure they can actually use it effectively. but there is a sense here in key of that ukraine is able to hold up on these front lines, about 2000 clumps, the front lines between russian troops and ukrainian troops. and that if they can slow the russian advance to place activity, the net, which basic for weeks now the russians have been trying to take and failing only, but managing to pick up a couple of streets by the day or the week, even then by the time those weapons, rita, there be able to turn the tide in that time is actually in their favor that russia will exhaust itself. that's that, that the, the mood here that basically ukraine is only up for negotiation when the situation about fil, is better for ukraine. when you crazed the stronger negotiating position and they

won't let themselves be pushed to some kind of a deal that would work against their interest long term by western european countries who in previous weeks, months had been hinting that they wanted to end this war as quickly as possible, whatever the price, so sense here that ukraine can make that military violence and also that it can push back those diplomatic advances from france. germany who had been hinting that they were willing to try and bring everyone back to table at the current situation, which of seat work in rushes favor. net present to landscape has been calling this a historic week with the e, with e leaders meeting to decide on ukraine's bade for candidate status how important and how much of an impact with that have on you crime. the top of this is huge, is something that ukraine has been pushing for for decades, essentially, and never been as close as it is now, as always, been basically fed some kind of promises that some time and an unidentified for the future. it might be an option, but now this was really forced the hand of that european decision makers to really make this real and to give a roadmap. and even before you grant does join the

e. u. if indeed it does, it already have impacts pretty soon as investors will get guarantees, they'll be reforms that ukraine will be forced to undertake that will really make it easier to build business here to bring money in. and to really helped about this country that has been struggling to live up to its potential basically since its independence nearly 90. so real sense here that this is a huge deal. this will really allow you can't find live up to its potential, right? a huge deal now. now karen cave at the moment, but you recently returned from the front lines. tell us a little bit about the situation there. what you saw. so we were in the south and mccullough of region, which is basically the one place where ukraine is now on the counter offensive. pushing russian forces back am or b, it's a yeah, a couple of kilometers or by the week or the month, but definitely a sense that ukraine varies. pressing home. it's advantage because the russians have been focusing so much on don bass on the hunts region. the round city of civil the nest there and calls from the ukrainian government for civilians living on russian occupied church in that part of the country to leave as soon as possible.

because more fighting expected there is ukraine becomes able to lodge couch offensive ukraine been using its new western weapons the last few days using anti ship missiles to sink russian or vessels going to snake island, which busier kind of crucial strategic point in the northwestern part of the black sea also, we've heard of the ukraine is using those are american built rocket r to resistant high mars. they've just come in, you. she, for the last week or so. and really having got those russian positions there that betty russia was using in the hope that they would then be able to push forward and take odessa and other places on the ukrainian coastline that is still under key of control. so since that ukraine is at least in part, able to stop for the russians back. even this decision is very difficult. these and you know, this is a country that is seeing 200 is not more a military death every day and more in the way of wounded. so a difficult situation. definitely one of a high loss and high stress for the government and its military, but not without hope and not without success. for you, grantley, c. d. w is ne connelly reporting from k. thank you. or since the beginning of the

war, volunteers across ukraine have been doing their part for the war effort. some are turning to recycling to help save soldiers lives. to find out more about how it's done. dw rebecca raters travel to southern ukraine to the region around mc alive. this old junkyard is a junk count no more. when war broke out, volunteers took over the space and turned it into a military workshop. steamer is a sound engineer and voice of the artist. now he makes flak, jackets moves across number, little of it really bully profess were requested from kilograms. so we decided to try make some, a small number 30 pieces. we wanted to raise 47000 her if near for. that's sure people wrote so connected that we raised 150000 in the 1st 3 to 4 days. so we made 3 times as many of the your mazda obama to word. so far they've sent more than

$700.00 of the vests to the front lines. places like hunt, keith, china, his and mc alive, there's recycling involved and the work looks aren't, isn't all that the product is military grade level. so if, if, if this mitchell is certified, 8 millimeters thick at 1 o'clock, this rubber from a conveyor belt is glued on top of its liam. it acts as an anti fragmentation layer where this robert traps or splinters from the bullets we through my of c. or of course, if you call it the metal and rubber a bound together in strong tape. and like holy cross, ne, if a dog bertha is the 2 o'clock, work, fireproof material usually used to make sofas forms the outer shell of the vests, just pop 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, what's equal? oh, wow. or the vin said it is outside. he shows us old tractor wheels that will go in to some of the vessels. soldiers arrived to pick up some for the comrades. they learn what kind of bullets their new body armor can stop with. a quick trip into the shop to take what they need. then they're off to the front lines. we get to save lives made in ukraine. here's a round up of other stories related to the war we're following for you this hour. the russian army says russian tv is now broadcasting in ukraine, southern curtis,

on region. people there can now access 24 russian channels for free. a spokesperson said moscow has already introduced its currency in the area and started distributing russian passports. hollywood actor ben stiller has spent a day in ukraine and met with president volunteers to landscape to mark the u. n. h c r's world refugee day. stiller is a goodwill ambassador for the u. n's refugee agency. he visited live eve and keith, where he viewed war damage and met ukrainians, forced to flee their homes. that you use top diplomat has called russia's blockade of ukrainian ports, a war crime that brings the risk of famine 2 separate made. the comments is european union, foreign ministers met to discuss the war and food security. millions of tons of wheat are stuck in ukraine. russia's foreign ministry has summoned that use ambassador to russia over what moscow calls 8 blockade on goods transiting through

lithuania to the russian, ex, clave of colleen and grad. it's rainy a whole to the rail transit of goods, including construction material, metals and coal. after a new package of u sanctions against russia came into force late last week. colleen and grad is wedged between nato members, lithuania and poland. russia security council, chief warrant lithuania of serious consequences if the bond isn't lifted. here's what the lithuanian prime minister said in response to bring it to your lips when it has no interest in escalation, the sanctions must be implemented. it's ironic to hear russia accuse us of international treaty violations. because i don't know if there is any international treaty that russia itself hasn't violated. run the. i'm joined now by our correspondence. konstantin, angered in lithuania, constantine, good to see. so we've just heard the lithuanian prime minister say they have no interest in an escalation. how concerned are they though in vilnius, of that happening?

considering the country geographic position. of course pablo people here are concerned 247 people in the baltic states, including 1st and foremost all this when they consider themselves to be on the front line. and in this respect, there is concern about possible russian action, but i think of the fact that the you ambassador was called into now the foreign ministry. moscow for explanations probably shows that more school will have to basically be the reality. what the 20th did is part of the european you sanctions, the 4th fact adopted quite some time ago. and there was no way that when you could not, ah, not do that. i could not block the specific goods from transit. i have to say that all the goods and people can still transit morrow to that military transit, which is effectuated between russia via bellows to cleaning. rock still

continues. it is subject to a special bilateral treaty between the 20 in russia. there was no disruption there, as for the measures that russia can impose on the 20th. well, there is actually not much that can be done. probably they can prevent lithonian citizens from traveling to cleaning grub. there are not many of them, frankly speaking. so it will be difficult to imagine what kind of major push back on the credit could in then. well, cleaning grad has a large port. constantine is not possible for goes to enter and exit on cargo ships . well do, and actually the governor of cleaning drug of last is that called on the russian government to give more money to buy or to do basically to introduce more ferries on the route between clean grog and the main russian port on the baltic, which is called aust luca that's not far from st. petersburg. i suppose that this

will be in the end of the decision, although it may not be, it may be quite costly to bring, let us a steel all our various metals are on the ship. it's definitely much more costly. costly are, but um, if russia wants to continue doing that, then it will have to do it. i think there's just no other way konstantin exit in this way now. thank you. thank you. let's take a quick look at some other stories making headlines. this. our british rail workers are staging their biggest national strike in 30 years. networks will largely be brought to a standstill on tuesday, thursday and saturday this week. so $40000.00 staff of walked off the job, demanding higher pay in england, scotland and wales. shoreline guy shot schools and non essential state services for 2 weeks in an effort to se fuel. the nation is in the grips of its worst ever. economic crisis calls for the president to resign are growing louder as people face

a whole range of goals that it hopes to accomplish. with this program, everything from potentially 6 g networks to launching its own a satellite navigation system, similar to t. yes. as well as even potentially placing her pro on the moon at some point. at the same time, there are also some military elements hoped to launch a constellation of spy satellites, to better keep an eye on, on neighbor in north korea. for now, it's pretty much, almost entirely reliant on the united states for that kind of information. and it helps to become much more independent. there's also of course, a major commercial element to this. it hopes to give a lot of this technology to its private sector and potentially, you know, launch things for other clients and expand some of its exports that way. briefly, if you could, and how important is this for south korea to join the circle of space various

countries. it definitely sees itself as a major global player. and this is a big step. it's quick to note that it's one of 7 countries now that have this kind of homegrown technology. and so both from an economic military but also just simply national prestige element. this is a huge one for them. all right? when you get there, josh smith and so thank you. thank you to east africa now where the death toll from a massacre and ethiopia aroma region has risen to at least 260 official said rebels targeted ethnic m hire a villagers. it's the latest atrocity in ethiopia as nearly 2 year old civil war that began in the northern te grey region. government forces are trying to oust the t gray people's liberation front, from its stronghold there. but the war has spilled over into other parts of the country, leaving thousands dead and millions displaced. dw correspondent mario miller visited one town on the border of the t dry region, shattered by ethnic violence,

a balla their home again. if the opium prime minister abbey ahmed announced a committee would look into whether it would be possible to enter peace talks with rebel groups. we asked journalist collateral when joey in the capital, addis ababa, how likely it is that a negotiated solution can be reached when the decision solution will highly depend on what the committee will report back to the government of the few people, the committee going to the prime minister supposed to look at the details of what it would take when a decision process, which he described himself as a complicated process. and after that, then they'll be able to advise on probably what kind of timeline and also all these will also be about clocking with the government to talk to talk peace, you know. but on the other side, it was the pressure from a but they want there will be to post and facilitated. so depending on the, on the committee, that's probably when we shall see how we keep in coming to move. but if you can

come in to see a process, a system of an issue, dialog collector, how much would am abby i might be willing or able to compromise? i think if you had a discussion, wait, wait, has reached close to 2 years now. i mean, with a net initial saying, when i put 4000000 people in need of emergency assistance because of the conflict, we've got people suffering because of leaving us over to other parts of the seat. i mean of the country i can move or we see any tension like has been just seen in the story. we see a so much competition beyond just the government and the need to live. so i think it's a to point the government to the point where it is thinking and i'm sure it's kind of thinking of how do we get these back to normal? you know, you know, we've got to let the people to 1000000 people, you know, feel like they're part of it. you know. so i think, but there is

a possibility that the government will do it for compromise, read receipt. i'm going to do an 8th grader and you know that kind of me. so for the sake of the people and for the sake of return to normalcy, it is a high possibility that they come in to look at some, some compromise. ukrainian child refugees are the beneficiaries of a record breaking auction held in new york on monday nobel peace prize winner dmitri moore. a tough, who donated his metal for the cause, expressed surprise at the huge winning sum of more than a $103000000.00 us dollars. a year boys, it was a special kind of auction shaded by this man. do you me to remove it off russian discipline journalist, a nobel peace prize winner. on the block, the nobel prize metal he was awarded just last year. he's pledged to proceed to
