with reconstruction. thousands of homes remain uninhabitable because of more damage and the lack of work is to repair that. the w meet some of those trying to rebuild . and the fact of fresh conflict in northern syria residents of one city of the turkish borders say they are bracing for war as malicious to wait orders from anchor to launch a major incursion aimed at routing out kurdish fighters. ah, i'm fil gail a welcome to the program. mister forces are pushing to take full control of ukraine's eastern dumbass region after claiming victory over a strategic city. he craves military withdrew from the battered city of missy chance. come sunday, come under say they pulled back to saved troops, lives. ukrainian officials now anticipate more attacks against the city of slow

vianza, as russian forces move further west. russia now occupies all of lu hands, got about half of done yes. the 2 regions which make up the dumbass ukraine has promised to recover the last territory. russian armored vehicles appearing to roll unopposed through lacey chance. the city was the scene of intense fighting and recent days. but on sunday, ukraine's military said it was forced to withdraw. moscow claim solicit chance, and the holy hands region is now under its control. with the russian ministry of defense releasing this footage of its troops, raising the russian flag in a village on the regions. buddha in keith, he crane's president, valadez. lensky was resolute, that his troops would reclaim the region. he actually come underneath, if our army command could draws people from certain points of the front, or the enemy has the greatest superiority in firepower. in particular,

the supplies to lucy chance he'll make it means only one thing. we will return, thanks to our tactics. thanks to the increase in the supply of modern weapons. ukraine is not giving anything oma mitchell navy day was to fall. we are gradually moving forward in the her here region in the her son, region, and at sea. there will be a day when we will say the same about don't boss. thankfully there sama schedule. he brought them both. plenty brushes next, move towards its goal of seizing the hold on bass area appears to be love yancey. on sunday, a local market was struck by russian rockets. according to the mayor, several civilians were killed. maybe a few of the big is shelling us love janski's recent times, give up. there are many wounded and killed. would hold on that where it missed together well, but with russia now in a better place to keep pushing forward with its assault on the don bass fessler,

he added there are likely to be even darker days ahead. are you re, soc, is an advisor to the ukrainian defense minister? i asked him about the significance of the loss of lucy chance for ukraine and for you create an armed forces and temporary loss of any city, no matter how big or small a temporary loss of every meter a very significant. and this is why we, every time we have to temporarily leave scenarios and cities, we insist that we will be back on our president says that the gradient and forces are committed to be occupied all the temporary occupied grief. of course, mrs. johnson, if you know the last large city in alaska blessed. but what has to be noted is that today ukrainian forces are still in

one region. so even though it is a very small part of aspiration, but according to the reports of the local authorities, you pray in our forces. i feel that on the small part of land. and this, of course, comes with the loss of a mighty appalling significance ways of east in ukraine. is this war moving rushes way? we don't believe this was the right way because there are other areas of your crime which are temporarily occupied by the war criminals. where ukrainian armed forces are actually gaining ground and retake in certain areas. this is the south of your brain. we've got a song region. this is the area around khaki, the 2nd 2nd largest city in ukraine. so this is a war, it's a very dynamic war. and of course, in those areas where russians have focused and concentrated all of that fire power,

firing, tens of thousands of artillery shells a day. of course it is, it makes sense for you credit on forces because we value human life to retreat temporarily. but in other areas we already counter attacking and providing we receive more heavy weaponry soon, we will be able to do it even more efficiently. i think it's your, bring us out about my next question. when you talk about these losses as being temporary, how do you reverse the universe? by receiving sufficient number of heavy artillery multi launch rockets, systems tanks, aircraft, air defense systems and iraq assistance. everything that our international partners have committed to provide us with. and you do it militarily so, you know, you've been saying that the same. so if i can put it that way for some months now, bring us more heavy weaponry. and this despite promise is from the likes of the

united states, the united kingdom. i'm germany to do just that. they just not arriving quick enough for you. some of the heavy weaponry that yet we have been promised by the united states, by germany, by the u. k. as already arrived in ukraine and is efficiently used on the front lines. and we are very grateful to our international partners. all of those who have gathered in ramstein nato son recently. and they have committed themselves wholeheartedly to support you primarily for as long as it takes what of course, you know, us and on the battlefield, we need, we understand that we need more heavy weaponry and we need a foster and we hope that our partners will find ways to deliver us this vital military assistance sooner rather than later. and so now as russia secure,

it's hold on the east of you crate where you expect it to turn it's, it's fire power. next. what do you expect? it's next target to be 1st of all, russia has not yet established its hold on the east of your credit because there are still don't ask region and there are cities such as fly ask that been mentioned in your report earlier. there is a sticky upcoming course, and there are very capable, highly motivated and professional ukrainian forces which are located there and they will continue resistance, actually east cities. this was kind of course a most likely to be the next major. the next major object to move the objective of the russian aggressive. but the major, the key, overarching military, objective of bad grass, has always been to and circle the credit armed forces in the east. you print and destroy them. and this has not happened. this is of that, that because even from list a chance you present on forces have been able to repeat without losses. so from

that perspective, we understand where the next target will be. but we also understand that we are doing everything we can in terms of tactics and maneuvers to ensure that we incur as much losses on our enemy as possible. and at the same time, we sustain as fewer water as possible. so clearly from the ukrainian side, this ain't over yet. you re sac advice. now you have ukrainian defense ministry. thank you so much for joining us. thank you so much. one, like the claims present, vladimir lensky says rebuilding the country will be a colossal job. so let's take a closer look at the scale of the damage done so far. more than a 100 hospitals have been destroyed, damage to civilian infrastructure is running at a more than an estimated 4 and a half 1000000000 pounds. 1000000000 euros per week. thousands of kilometers of roads have been wrecked and hundreds of bridges blown up. ukrainian officials put total economic losses from this war. more than 500000000000 euros. ukrainian

officials and international leaders have begun a 2 day conference in the swiss city of new garner. i to come up with a plan to fund ukraine's reconstruction after russia's devastating war. timothy yard man or van off is that economic adviser to president vladimir landscape is a former ukrainian economy. man's down is also president of the keith school of economics. he joins us from those reconstruction talks a welcome to d w. and what does key or what does that ukraine hope to get from these talks? one, a, something, actionable platform or a mechanism of coordination of all activities and a around you're creating something which will streamline the process b, a sense of urgency in the mountains of people that funding is needed. and the 3rd is a number, you know, and number

a common knowledge number and agreed upon number of how much funds are needed and for what purpose. ok, so and as i understand it, the plan for today's meeting is not to actually raise those funds to. but to effectively look at how they would be used, how ukraine would be rebuilt. that is correct. there is overall understanding the funds are needed and the partners very sympathetic. they're out of questions about the per your gift mechanisms, architecture, transparency, governor and corruption. and all those teachers have to be addressed and they have to be addressed now. and this is what the conference is about. and many would look at this table, isn't it too soon? to be talking about reconstruction, while bombs are still dropping while a war is still raging. that's exactly one of the questions which was discussed today on, you know, eyes into too early. let's wait until after the war. and the government comes

forward with a 2 different approaches to different numbers. one is what's needed now to maintain the economy and they call it rapid recovery. and the number is about $65000000000.00, and that includes hospital schools, bridges, which need to be recovered. now, for the economy to continue to operate, and then there is a number of what happened off to the board. right. and we'll continue to focus on after the war because it is an intriguing question here, which, which is well, doesn't, it rather depend on who wins and what a win looks like. because it's pretty simply, is this plan likely to happen? is the funds likely to flow if russia is in charge of ukraine? absolutely, this is the question. all of this is predicated on victory and got a number of speakers today at the conference made a crystal clear that we need to support ukraine now, both financial in terms of weapons so that their construction is cheaper be make

sense, a thought, of course, your weapon ton of course come in, we might be in a situation, there's not much to recover. right. so yeah, absolutely correct. right. so the, the funds and the plan that depends are presumably then just looking at what victory might look like. would that depend on russia giving up the territory that it has taken? well, you know, russia is not going to give up anything. so it has to be taken away from russia. or this should be, you know, they're essentially a couple of outcomes. one can think of one is your brain will be able, with the help of their national partners and friends to recover rhetoric or ukraine won't be able immediately to recover this 3rd or is, but some will be on the front lines with the belie thumper. and this was a discussion to what happens if the front lines, but the lights were violent,

the low war becomes protracted prolong. how should we go about this? and so there are multiple scenarios. you mentioned corruption was, was one of the things that will come up at this conference because of course, before russia invaded, they were widespread concerns about a corruption in ukraine. reconstruction is going to mean billions and billions of your rows are flowing into and out of the country. you accept that that, that will be continuing concern amongst a potential accredited investors about where and how this money is accounted for. there are 2 concerns. one is corruption, was in ukraine and the 2nd concern is lobbying and getting the preferred contractors which are politically connected to different donors. and with the 1st concern undermine the transpiring them prost him to be offered. and the 2nd concern just makes their construction efforts very,

very expensive. so both have to be addressed. and for that there been multiple proposals. what kind of governance makins can address them? the important aspect is to understand the this issues are concentrated in the area of procurement. first of all, so making procurement, very clear, very specific, very transparent will help and go a long way. thank you so much for outlining. that's clearly timothy mill mill, lavonne of economic advisers to ukrainian president. lot of isn't he. thank you. thank you. well, some reconstruction has already begun obeyed in rather piecemeal fashion. the w correspondent, the manual shots has been speaking with residents near keith were trying to rebuild their homes, lacking skilled workers and supplies. and for the war still being for the struggling to get the job done. safety agreement by chance on the site of the major main road above we were filming the destruction calls when a mis hit her building. she was keen to show us inside. back in march,

when russian troops were advancing unclear fees fighting to place in the area with hundreds of homes, made an inhabitable federal law. everything is falling apart like here. and here she was, it was promo, but the water came. as you can see is dripping on the windows here. it's actually the same in the room. everything is destroyed. there's nothing left. there are no windows year, so called catches, says local authorities assess the damage, not long after the strike, but she hasn't received any help since then. boldly. as i paid for the repairs myself. i used all the money i had and i installed new windows to keep the crows in the sparrows from coming inside. lisa de la hughley, the girls only katya, is doing what we pers her can well, but some require qualified personnel here. so morton's little boy that we can fix the windows ourselves, but we need specialists for the roof. whatever might be,

you need to have special skills for the actual thumbs with it'll be pensioners, bob, old women and men who live here, like they can do it by themselves in water. little bit, send me the boat for the very val though. she wasn't home at a time of the attack. you katy, i see really come to shock of the miss or strike norman, of all of the nipple. me. i just can't imagine how such a thing could happen. we'll need to swim of that. the russians on you are so called brothers more. you could launch a war on us. seem you so much destruction with about it. oh christ. ukrainians will never forgive that. oh, phone no room. the local authorities do what they can, the day to are overwhelmed nor do so without in war. there are 2 options. either people wait for payments from the regional or state government or we at the local

level can also help we go. we always had a problem finding people for such work. and now even more so, given the number of people went abroad, vicki re record along the city counselor says temporary housing is planned for the cold. and nancy of that many vulnerable people in katya situation. don't want to leave their homes no matter how damaged they are. even offer you better to go. now i will stay here because we need to fix everything. but i look as you can see, i'm trying with our roof while it's still summer time or garden, because afterwards, the rainy season will come. she sent me over me before now the russian troops may have left the key of area with that the damage to have inflicted on civilian infrastructure will take months if not years, to be repaired. with a good look at some stories away from the war, u. s. investigators have concluded that palestinian journalist charin abu aqua was probably killed by unintentional israeli fire, but ballistics test on the bullet that killed her of proved inconclusive was abu

aclu was shot in may while covering and his railing, military occupation and in the occupied west. back police in denmark say there found no evidence of terrorism as the motive for the weekends of fatal shooting at copenhagen shopping mouth at $22.00 romans being detained in psychiatric custody. accused of shooting dead, 3 people in the attack. italy's prime minister mario druggie has linked the melting of an alpine glass here that killed at least 7 people with climate change is at sunday's glass. your collapse was without doubt caused by the deterioration of the environment on the climate situation. isn't it? doesn't hikers remain unaccountable and then a growing concerned about a potential turkish offensive into kurdish controlled territories in northern syria for weeks turkeys president heard one has been threatening to attack kurdish troops near the border saying it's necessary to bolster a turkish national security africa body. and cam lee,

she commercially have been the kurdish enclave in northern syria, dominated by the people's protection units. y p g militia. turkey regards these places, a stretch suite security, which is why it sees control of afrin back in 2018 now. and crow wants a buffer zone containing no kurdish elements along its border. tensions have led to an influx of refugees into the city of man beach people. they're now caught between pro turkey malicious and the threat of a return of the so called islamic state. almost everything is already gone bad now. marie used to store hundreds of canisters of oil in this garage, but the 50 year old trader has moved most of his product to a safe place, just like he did in 2014 back then he fled militants from the so called islamic state. now he's fling pro turkish troops. actually he's eating the people here hard. not as many here anymore. most of the traders have moved for goods because

we're afraid of war to have one at heart of man beach is a city in a state of urgency is considered a commercial hub in northern syria. the population keeps growing. since the end of i s rule, the kurds have taken control. there were years of stability and relative security. all of that is now at risk of we've fallen into a kind of depression because of the threat of war. dolly, when deb, i like him are on the other side of the front line pro turkish malicious are on the march for months now the syrian fighters have been training with heavy weapons and tanks. they're considered islamist. they're trained and equipped by turkey, and they follow orders from president rich of type air to i. he considers cards to be terrorists and wants to drive them from turkey's border or settling syrian refugees from turkey. there instead of the lord of any the fish, everything points to

a confrontation market. it will come soon. hopefully we'll get the order to deploy from turkey shortly. about jennifer 30 curtis units are also bracing for war. parts of northern syria are already under air to wants control on troops here for fear he wants to crush kurdish autonomy altogether. but i, but according to the kurdish autonomous administration that would play into the hands of the so called islamic state, i as fighters have been terrorizing the population since the kurds defeated them. let them at that i had, i had that lack, we're watching the i is it herself solo, but out why are she has to protect our people? how to defend our homeland, but the fight against i and then becomes a secondary matter. but the terrorist militia stands to benefit the most from the situation. now there's the threat of new chaos and new suffering in northern syria . after years of relative calm adina, marino fears for all the traitors here have helped to build somebody is that if mon

beach fools, the whole economy in the body area will collapse over what we've put in would be lost. the people of man bees feel the world has forgotten them, and against turkish military superiority the current here hardly stand a chance. a dasanya theme is a research fellow, the german institute for global and area studies. i started by asking for her assessment of the situation between a turkish armed forces and kurdish militias and in northern syria. well, there are conflicts happening, especially in the last weeks concerning the turkish on groups. because in between these groups, there is often conflict for money for resources. so they are in an off itself, a danger. but especially if i'm out of danger and we have to remember on beach was one of the 1st cities that came on. the ice isn't control in 2013, and it was also one of the 1st is liberated promises in 2016. so it's

a city that has seen struggling, has seen the suffering really from the very start. and they have thought hard to be able to take care of themselves to govern themselves. but as the report already showed, the economic situation and especially the permanent military spread, is a big problem for the civilian population there right now. and is this potential for a turkish incursion? is this new, was it or has it always been sort of bubbling away in the background? happened consecutive aspects, especially drones strikes 3 days a call the robot information center has shown a statistic on the stikes and all of the ne theory, all of these areas which have been 47 of which 55 people have been wanted because of these attacks and 16 q a been launched by turkey. they are from by dr. drones and directly not from turkey. so the strong starts come from turkey and i directly

facilitated from there, and they are permanent danger for the people. so even if there is not a green light for a full on military incursion, like repeatedly happened under the trump administration for turkey. and there is constant attacks and people are really great of those people look at, wouldn't look at this from outside and one to will doesn't talk. you have a legitimate interest in protecting it's border. well, there is not been any, a text from the british net force as nor the population there, the most, the been engaged in fighting against isis as one of the few groups actually in the region. so they have been very much focused on that crime tricky is actually facing a domestic problems they are facing. i and actually next year they are facing a political struggle inside of the country and they're also facing a struggle with their own credit population. so it's rather tricky fighting against

their credit question abroad than really, you know, going for a defense case. but when we're dealing with the situation, as you say, a talking with a fraud economy at the moment. but turkey also took a millions of refugees as a result of the conflict in inferior, isn't it legitimate for it to look for a new solution to the, to the millions of people who fled into the region? well the issue is we have a non refinement principle when it comes to refugees. so people are not allowed. countries are not allowed to just send back refugees to the country that they came from. so as long as there is not a viable political solution in syria, it is simply illegal to send back the refugee and on the other side, resettling a by a majority, our refugees that are in tricky into majority kurdish areas and kurdish lead area is also an act of ethnic cleansing in the afternoon. we have seen it,

they used to be a 5 percent kurdish population and i think now it's less than 20 percent. so that really equals to ethnic cleansing is a big problem. so there must be a solution for refugees from syria, but the solution is not an editing. understood, thank you so much for joining us. i just on the same from the german institute for global and area studies that you're up to date, a lot more world news at the top of b. our jarrett breed has that d, w, use asia next. and of course you get more headlines and analysis around the clock on the d w. or if the w dot com, i'm good with with
