every day we are being of a k to we have nothing to go on, no pension and no place to go. we sit around and wait team with maybe somebody will give us something jeremy, yesterday we received too many terran aids a car, arrived and gave us bread as well. russian forces are stepping up there offensive and the done yes. korean, after capturing key cities neighboring low hunts. meanwhile, ukrainian troops are digging in, hoping to turn the died in pushback rushes advance. but they're counting on receiving more weapons from western nations. developing it depends on the number of weapons we will be provided with karen on what we have is only enough to stop the russians for some time artificial mind, but we can't throw them back yet. mortimer,

bring up another job alicia ritual or to focus you greens. president bullard, mia zalinski, visited the front line to boost morale among the san jose to day, i worked all day on the road and in upper and in the region. i was in the front lines of defense in the juniper, petrov, st. jan. i listened to the reports of the commanders and thanked the boys and girls who hold the region for my whole life. he also hang the efforts of the troops involved in regaining control of sneak island in the black sea. a much needed when for the ukrainian side. the debris is next, pfizer is an ukraine's capital keith, and i asked him whether western supplies weapons are shifting the balance in ethan ukraine. but you're right. the attacks appear to be intensifying despite the

russian high command, declaring an operational pause during which they get their fighting units back together. they're continuing the shelling to such an extent that the governor of the lou hand screech in which is now occupied by russians entirely. more or less says that the people that are living through a true hell was villages being attacked. civilians being killed in markets and such an extent that ukrainian has a government call and all the people to leave the area by all possible means before the counter offensive from ukraine begins. now the weapons at the west has provided appear to be making a difference. zalinski has said so himself, we're talking you particular about these american high mars mo bile rocket systems which can fire rockets, 70 kilometers, and with the ukrainians are doing is targeting what weapons depos, particularly the stacks of artillery shells that the russians are using. sometimes firing 46000 in a day in the month of june, making the russians move them back a 100 kilometers in the front line and making it much more difficult for them to

continue their onslaught. and nick soleski did get, did go to see the situation in denise pro on friday. how important are these visits to the frontline? i think they're massively important and you know, president zalinski communication strategy since the beginning of the war has been one whereby he appears to be the leader every day. whether it's, you know, with his handheld videos that he puts out on telegram or he's talking to directly into the cameras. if there was a skype conversation with your family or visiting people on the front line, showing that he's not a coward, you member at the beginning he was offered a chance to leave the country and he said, i'm not leaving what i need his weapons. so this is all part of keeping up morale and you know, he's got 93 percent approval rating, so something appears to be working. we only hear about these visits after they've taken a place, of course, for operational security. because the russians set at the beginning of the beginning of the world,

the ukrainians considered the beginning of the war that he was target number one for russia. and he also recalls that ukraine's ambassador gemini has been fired. and this also includes several other top foreign envoys as well. what more do you have on that? we don't really have an official explanation. there's a presidential decree. 5 ambassadors are basically sacked. one of them is entry melnick, who was the very outspoken ambassador to germany who badger the german chancellor, olaf sholtes about the slowness of weapons deliveries at one point, and calling him a liver sausage. and he really got into hot water with the germans. however, in an interview, when he talked about step in ben dera, who was a nationalist leader during the 2 2nd world war here. his comments about him in an interview caused israeli government to say that he was minimizing the holocaust. and it caused the government here in ukraine to say that they dissociated

themselves from his comments. they were purely personal. so not the kind of ambassador you can hold on to. and the other ambassadors, perhaps other motivations. as i said at the beginning, there's no explanation being provided, but you know, i think that might be part of the explanation. each of these next by saying keith nick, thank you. well, his look at some of the stories making headlines around the world. the body of japan's former prime and as such. and so ob, a has returned to tokyo a day after he was assassinated in the city of nora, please have said they were flores in security. and that the suspect held a grudge against an organization he believed mister hobbit was part of 11 people and i'll confirmed to have died, offer an avalanche in the italian alps. last weekend rescue teams said that all victims have been identified and there are no indications that any more people are involved in the accident. and thousands of was then pilgrims has thrown pebbles in

the stoning of the devil. ritual in saudi arabia is a ty, max of the hutch pilgrimage and mocks. a start of the eat, aha! holiday. $1000000.00 people are taking pocket this year. often, numbers are restricted. during the pandemic o and tennis russian born cassock, elena robina, made william made wimbleton history. on the defeating on jabber into nicea, became back of back to beat deborah in 3 sets. neither player had ever reached a grand some title before. will win wimbledon. javert could have become the 1st african and arab woman to win the major championship. but instead it was a 23 roll for bettina who became the 1st ever grand sam single winner from kazakhstan. well, let's get more on the swim. alden's women singles final with a lima hotel. you joins me from dw sports cuz happy with lima. so talk us through this historic final it was always going to be very historic,

regardless of outcome. so on the one site we have deborah who of course, could have become the 1st era and african woman to win a grand slam title. and on the other side, we had of course, elaine overbeck hannah, who did now become the 1st cousin to win a grand slam champion. so it was, like i said, it was always going to be very historic, and that's why i think it was a really great show down. and, and, and it's really interesting because when it comes to rebec cannot something that most, not all viewers may know is that she switched her an e g, insist her kazakhstan own about around. why does it in 20184 years ago? and had she not done that, then she wouldn't have even been able to pay at wimbledon because of the ban on russian players because of the russian invasion of ukraine. so there's a bit of irony right there. and the match, of course i said from the very beginning even before the match, it was really difficult to predict. i'm some people was saying that deborah is the slight favorite, but both of them have such different styles. deborah,

very technical, really fluid has an austin, of tricks and shots that she can execute. and she did do a really good job in the 1st set and she really crew over back in off her game. it didn't really work in the 2nd set it in work in the 3rd said, and rebecca had for, with her powerful hits her baseline hits and she made history becoming the 1st cause. like too many france, i'm title, but despite a job losing this final, she had a lot of impact when it came to the arab and the african world. right? most definitely. and she's been making a, she's had quite an impact the past few years. and you know that we shouldn't forget that she's still the 1st era and african women to reach a grand stamp high. no, she's also the 1st arab to minute w t, a title and the 1st era to ever make it to a semi's at a grand slam. and, and it's not just inspiration. of course she's, she will inspire a lot of younger generations from that are from that region, but she's also been able to spread a lot of joy. she's always laughing,

the media love her and back home in to nidia. she's actually being, she's been given the nickname of minister of happiness. so let's see. you know what she has to offer in the years to come. 20 to comment, i'm sure. right, in the long term, eyes, a lot of happiness, a lot of joy. thank you, alina her talk, you. thank you very much. from d w sports. they're watching d. w. nice live from berlin. stick around coming up. next is dachelle. i, marina bahamas. that's watching. take care on the green, and then you feel worried about the planet miss. you on neil, host of the on the green fence podcast, that's when it's clear remains to trend.
