saddle extremely worth a visit. ah, ah, business d, w sli, from berlin, ukrainian missiles strike territory occupied by russia in the half song region, ukraine's military says and hit a russian ammunitions depot, killing dozens of soldiers, also coming up, draws are playing an increasingly important role in the war. we meet some of the ukrainian refugees building drones and lap fear before the war effort and questions about the whereabouts of sri lanka president got to by our roger pock
5:01 pm
shop. the president hasn't been seen since friday. protestors camped out at the presidential palace fear. he might try to flee the country before he is due to resign class. now our release is the 1st full color image from the largest and most powerful space telescope ever launched. the revolutionary james webb telescope is designed to peer through time itself. back to the dawn of the you ah, i'm glad elf has well come to the program. ukrainian forces have launched a counter attack in the southern her son region after announcing plans to retake the territory from russia. cave says they've destroyed and ammunition depot and killed over 50 russian soldiers in an attack on the rationale town of kafka. right,
5:02 pm
nova oscar, excuse me. russian state media gave a different account claiming at least 7 people were killed elsewhere. ukraine self, the city of mc alive was the target of russian strikes, medical facilities and residential buildings were hit, at least a 1000 people were injured. earlier i spoke to w correspondent, m a chaise. and the key full gave us more information about these recent attacks. well, this much does, most recent, the strikes are actually fell on to hospital or on the one school and on residential buildings. this time there was nobody who died after those tries, but it still made 12 people injured in something that has become very sadly come on here or overall, a ukraine. those tribes are falling on a residential areas on places that should,
5:03 pm
that ought to be protected. so such as schools such as hospitals, and he just shows just how or how every day or violence is following up on this country. well, you mentioned this, these attacks on civilians. we hear about that again. and again, does it seem like a deliberate strategy by russian forces? well, and it's at this stage, you know, russia claims he never targets as civilians and are it always has a strategic targets or with its me size. but are these days, god, we are a 5 runs into that war and every day there are reports of me size falling on residential area today on hospitals and schools as i was mentioning. but, you know, i also on sunday on chelsea of yada with the best of rising up for 35 people. few weeks ago it was a claim and shock on a shopping center. these happens again and again on civilian targets as well,
5:04 pm
even though russia claims it's not the main target. now the roman government is now asking people in the south of the country to evacuate the area to flee. the area that is currently held by russia. because ukraine is preparing a counter attack there, or what does it say about the current state of ukraine's forces? well, it does say are for one that the ukraine an armed forces are, are hoping that they're not gonna strike on their own people. but it also shows you just how difficult this whole situation is in their thoughts with people who chose awful couldn't lead, chose to stay or simply couldn't leave because they are too weak. for example, i'm thinking about elderly people. some people are so dont have the means to leave their homes and others where they're just decided that they simply wouldn't leave their homes because they're spent the entire life. dad there. that being said,
5:05 pm
they're read a counter offensive. are happening right now in the us asp. is ukraine, an armed forces are which have gain momentum with heavy weapons also are furnished by a western allies. they are destroying how munition they pose. they are farming or onto a rush and choose. but those russian troops are also in residential areas. so the west could still be to come for civilians who stayed in their cities there the of the seminal saws reporting from the ukranian capital there. thank you m b united states says it has intelligence that iran is preparing to deliver armed drones to the russian military. the, i says it's unclear whether any drones have already been delivered by that. he runs ready to train russian troops on their use this month. the kremlin has announced that president vladimir putin will visit iran next week, working closely across every day or smaller surveillance. drones are already used
5:06 pm
in the war, new crime for an ext reports to w ski and buyer traveled to the latvian cabot. the riga then visited a drone factory that struggling to keep up with demand. ukrainian forces have come to rely on recognizance drones in their fight against the russian invasion. a few weeks ago these ukrainian refugees did not know which way to turn a screwdriver. now they're building drones for the ukrainian army. atlas aerospace, the latvian company, they now work for saw an explosion in demand for military grade recognizance drones with the onset of the war in ukraine. previously was like, i was happy to sell 10 drawn finance and now you, if you're talking about extra $100.00 pay per month and if stuff to feed him, if it's not enough and we need to sell to think, how are we going to sell more atlas builds drones that are small enough to be carried by one soldier. they are highly sought after by ukrainian special forces.
5:07 pm
units equipped with these drones can cover large areas for reconnaissance and stream their video feeds back to base in real time. in for read thermal imaging cameras turn night in today. atlas says tools like this helps save soldiers lives, and the ukrainians are buying so far more than $100.00. drones have already been delivered. the batter club has become a bit more transparent, maybe, and you have soldiers that are just more independent can act independently because they already have all the data. and what's happening over the next hill behind that wall justice on ukraine's battlefields. consumer drones from china have had a starring role and propaganda video circulating on social media that the soldiers have been modifying these drones to drop bombs. i heard often to devastating
5:08 pm
effect. yeah. yeah, but you want to put in there, but experts say using chinese may drones is potentially dangerous. this video allegedly shows an artillery strike, honing in on a ukrainian drone operator. it's been claim that d j i, the chinese firm producing these drones is passing on gio tracking information to the russian military. something the company denies. back in latvia, atlas aerospace is hiring more ukrainians to increase production. they are keen to help them on the line with when making drains for the ukrainian army. with the help of the strains, we shall win. the war. war is a money maker for some. all of these green bags will be going to ukraine, and they won't be the last, on average,
5:09 pm
these drones only last for 48 hours in combat. and so the flow of equipment will continue from on the subject when are joined by arthur holland. michelle, an author and journalist who writes about emerging military and surveillance technology of a huge array of drones are being used by russia and ukraine to gather intelligence in this war. how they shape thing, this conflict. i'd say they're a critical tool, but drones have never sold one a war on their own. and, and this cases is no different than they give a vertical perspective. they definitely enrich the intelligence picture for both sides. in some cases, they actually are quite close to the, the use of force itself in either dropping weapons or directing strikes. and but again, it's important to emphasize that they are just one tool among a whole array. in our report, we mainly saw,
5:10 pm
let's call it ometer. drones are being used for intelligence gathering. sort of you can buy them on amazon if you want. but what about arm drones? the one we're talking about from iran, maybe are they playing a significant role in this? they are playing a relatively significant role. i mean, they have been used by both sides to conduct strikes. ukraine has a drone that is very famous now because of the strikes is conducted, the bi rector up. but again, these, these drones are in relatively small numbers. they are far outnumbered by other types of weapons on the ground. part of the reason though, that they have a prominent role a profile is because while they're drones, they technologically advanced and they generate video which can be shared on social media. and so they've, they've, they've gained a kind of outside presence in the narrative of the war and who has the se, technological upper hand. now,
5:11 pm
the usaa saying that iran is about to deliver arm drones to the russians. what impact could these have on the battle feels? so iran actually has one of the world's longest running drone programs. it has supplied trends to a number of non state groups, including the hoodies in yemen and, and that drones have been used to conduct a whole range of operations from intelligence gathering to actual strikes that have been very effective. so it could be a pretty crucial moment in the war if, if russian forces are able to use these drowns to the same level of effectiveness as, as the forces that iran has supplied in the past. but again, that will very much depend on the ukranian response and also whether the capabilities of these drones will be a good match, say for the terrain and the distances that they'll need to cover. and the types of targets that russia would presumably want to use. and for including artillery,
5:12 pm
you know, to surround the soldiers and, and, and vehicles say, how vulnerable are these drones that iran is said to be delivering to, to russia? how vulnerable are they to, to, to defensive fire antioch profile, even small arms fire. i'd say that they are most vulnerable to electronic warfare to weapons that can jam the signals. weapons that can also locate the operator of the drone, as, as a result of signal at tracking. and it's a little bit harder to, to shoot the systems down with say, a missiles or bullets, although that is, ah, potentially one of the defensive options we've seen in the past that many of iranian sauce drones are presumably iranian souls. trends have been brought down by these techniques, but again, there are always drones that get through those defensive measures off all of
5:13 pm
michelle, thank you very much for long as president is heading to a naval base to flee the country after being blocked from leaving a by airport staff in colombo, what i am rather parker has promised to step down a wednesday while civil unrest continues the country's political crisis as also hitting citizens at the fuel pump with record high prices to conserve fuel. the government is now asking people to work from home and has closed schools. restaurants have even switched to cooking meals with wood for 7 days as our mo heading has been waiting here in a kilometer long line for gas in sri lanka, capital colombo, he turned a new fuel delivery was coming, he spent day and night here since i did on the gas in there is simply no more fuel . we have no more gas at home to cook. we used to have an income,
5:14 pm
but for weeks now the money has stopped coming to one and we love, we can't go on like this. life is hard like them away to make matters worse, his wife is ill. he tries to spend a little time with her every day at lunchtime, risking losing his place in line in early and then i keep calling him when he is there waiting. it's the tormenting, thank that have made me think i was even admitted to hospital. we didn't even have fuel for him to drive me there. and accordingly, many people in sri lanka face similar problems, inflation is so rang, and prices are skyrocketing, even for essentials like food. hardly any one can afford to buy what they need. oh, really isn't blank. other people used to have 3 meals a day. most of the time now it's either 2 or one a little bit. sometimes people are drinking water instead of eating. i know you
5:15 pm
know that we don't know what to do, what to give our children. they say they're hungry, but we don't have anything for them. we don't wanna let vieira calling on them, but we can't drink tea with milk anymore. we have no milk powder. we just about managed to buy rice, but even that is very expensive. another day has gone by in the line for gas, and for as amola, dean, it's again been fruitless. his one hope that after the resignation of president go to buy a roger packs a better times will finally come. the am again, you get it. any of it, only when we get problems like the fuel crisis solved, can we live a life worth living? i haven't lost faith yet that a new government will give us fresh hope and change will finally happen rather than level. don't be align dental until then as i'm will heading will spend another night in line, hoping that he will finally get a few leaches a few let's have
5:16 pm
a look now. was while the store is making headlines around the world. the un security council has voted to allow una deliveries from turkey to northwestern, syria to continue for another 6 month previous man that expired on sunday operation has proven controversial with russia, arguing that it violates serious sovereignty. some 4000000 people rely on the food medicine and shelter. the funeral of former japanese prime minister since obey has taken place in the tokyo thousands of mourners gathered outside the temple where the private service was held. arby was assassinated on friday, while complaining in the city of narrowed just days before a parliamentary election. yes, presidential biden and his mexican count about undress, manuel lopez overdraw holding talks at the white house today to address tensions over migration relations have become strange since oper door skip the recent
5:17 pm
u. s. host at summit, but after more than 50 people were found dead last month in the sweltering truck in texas. migration is the issue is being treated with renewed urgency tail fuel valencia and his wife are trying to come to terms with the inconceivable to of their son's age. just $16.18 died in the truck found in texas along with another relative that im with it than arizona. we wanted to stop them but they had dreams that they wanted to get ahead to build something the other. but that was an illusion. lie lithonian perfectly learned. they wanted to get away from their small village in fair accrues mexico, and hoped for a better life in the u. s. seeing no legal path to get there. they paid a smuggler and got into a truck here. anything? do you? 53 migrants died in that vehicle in sweltering heat. but i me for
5:18 pm
the i have lost being part of my life. the tragedy casts a shadow over the meeting between you as president biden and mexico's present lopez, overlander aid organization, see thousands have died in recent years, trying to cross the border. and despite you as promises, nothing has changed for the better. the holy become igloo. s. migration policy is cruel and inhumane level. there's almost no legal way for refugees from central america to enter a kidney. and so they turned traffickers and organized crime because that seems the only option because of that. but it is risky and expensive. gave a re, as gorda e, gotta thousands of migrants wait in camps on the mexican side of the border due to lengthy us asylum procedures. many of biden's attempts to relax. some rules have failed in the face of conservative opposition. gay. there was great joy when the
5:19 pm
democratic president said he wanted to change something. but conservative groups are blocking him because we're like, you leave don't normally. i'm barely meet you. in border cities like you wanna migrants, hold vigils, praying that tragedies like the one in texas don't happen again. mexico's president says he will call on the you as to issue more work faces. the parents of the victims are hoping for this to learn. it would be nice if the u. s. would give more temporary visas to young people who want to work so that this doesn't happen again . maybe that is was causal. for now, they hope to be able to bury their sons in mexico soon. in the u. k. boys johnson's impending departure as prime minister is creating even more uncertainty over nor than irelands political future with johnson due to step down. it's not clear whether it's potential successor or continuous policies towards northern ireland. one of those policies in truth tearing up part of it,
5:20 pm
breaks it tre, deal with the you. that could inflame tensions between the u. k. and the european union and also deepen sectarian divisions in northern ireland. t w's, bigot mass filed this report from belfast. i know greg mart that didn't have been practice to perfect and the hamiltons thorn. silver burn is ready for the annual parade. ah, but behind the festive atmosphere, there's a sense of insecurity in this tight knit community. blue shipping and grew up here . hers is a protestant family surrounded mainly by catholics. so quote, nationalists know there's a very much division in the community. you know, we're surrounded here by there is national areas honest like you wouldn't go to them places because of the past because of the shabbos people around here are very angry. we're just heading back to that place that dark place. and obviously we
5:21 pm
don't want to go back. lucy's family's house was ones bombed by the irish. she says now she fears that once again, identity politics is rising and that house is under threat. she wants to remain part of the united kingdom. what we have got out of bracket it's yeah, it's very much hand for a united ireland which is against what every union swanson. we don't want that just a few kilometers away. right next to the open border with the republic of ireland as cross mcglenn, a catholic village. it was once a hot bed of ira gunman, teenagers at the youth club here have a completely different identity. they have family ties to the republic of ireland and cross the border all the time. myra. i dis, i wouldn't any comments i was british because we are still connected to orland and
5:22 pm
we live in northern and we're still ireland. so i russia, i feel like, even though northern ireland, as part of the united kingdom, i just faded because it's just our own island. you just feel a rush, pete burns family has been making gravestones for generations. a business that's grown with sales down the road and the republic of ireland. he's also local counselor and says threats by the british government to change the breadth of the agreements on borders. have created uncertainty and even fear. we used to have borders and all roads couldn't cross mcglenn known as the ring of steel. this is one of the most watched places along the border that has all been lifted from the good friday agreement. so anything that moves back to that, not for we're in danger of going with the british government trying to get these changes are unit off re, for changes to the ordinary protocol. will really devastate this area. oh, everyone here. protestant and catholic needs the com to continue economic upheaval
5:23 pm
would be as unwelcome as political turmoil as the protestants prepared to march the uncertainty at the sour note big mass reporting there. now nasa has just released a batch of 4 photos from the james web telescope showing the most details, images of deep space ever seen. it were taken with james web telescope, which is located 1500000 kilometers from of sante soap. the images will help them understand how the 1st stars and galaxies formed. for more, we are now joined by the w. smith, aroma christian who is in darmstadt in western germany with european space operations center is a located. so we got it. take us through what the new images show us to the new images are fabulous. there's a lot of excitement around what we saw. preston bite and release in the morning was
5:24 pm
the corina de la, which is one of the largest and the brightest nebula, that we have ever seen in addition to it. what's really exciting is we have also discovered some exit planets for the 1st time, and they have found water clouds on it. so the aim of a james webb is also to identify these planets where water is dead. and if there is water, maybe we can find lice there. so we also have images of other nebulae where, which shows how stars die and how stars a form of our here in a isa where i'm standing, the released the image of stuff and squinted, which is a collection of galaxies and nebulae that we have never seen before and one more image is still pending and let's wait for that. okay. but earlier, nasa revealed her some sort of a teaser image showing galaxy galaxies that are up to 13000000000 years old. how is it possible for this telescope to, if you will look back in time?
5:25 pm
so when you walk out in the night and look into the sky, you're looking at the time. but you're not really looking at stars as they are now . you're looking at ties from years ago because of a fighter, we like takes time to reach us. so this is also what james webb is doing, but it's looking at stars that are much further away into the universe, which means it's looking at light from years and years ago. and of this telescope is especially a telescope because it's looking at in threaded light, like imagine pushing a ball on the floor. and as it travels farther away, it goes lower. so the faster the ball, as you're seeing, blue lights the slaughter as you're seeing red lights. and that's why genes, when a, which records infrared, is looking at the low light from galaxies that are far away. which means they were way back in time, forcibly. 13000000000 years ago. okay, so this was only the beginning really from, from james,
5:26 pm
the james web telescope. what can we look forward to in the future? so they're expecting to look at images every week from now on. so astronomers around the world as excited because this is one project where there's a global collaboration this esau b astronomers in australia, looking on it, astronomers in canada, working on it. so we're going to be looking into different regions in the sky. and the question about what exactly we'll be looking at is decided on the images that could be collecting. now let's say they find a collection of eggs or planets nearby. they close to our celeste and then they would look there. but instead of the looking at see a black hole that's further away or dark matter approved for dark matter, farther away than they would be looking in that direction. so it really depends on what we find in the future. fascinating stuff that reported via d w. so smith, aroma, christian frank harrison's meter. thank you. this is the w. c. as a reminder of our top story,
5:27 pm
ukrainian missiles have struck territory occupied by russia and the hassan's region . the grand military says that hit to russian, i'm emissions depot. russia claim. several people were killed and thousands injured in that strike. and that's it from me and the new scene for now don't go way up. next is kickoff with a review of the bonus niga season and get out office in berlin. i thought ah ah, with
