turkish present writ of time. i went and radiant president ibrahim, racy, syria, is all the official agenda, but putin and our to want are also expected to discuss a un back proposal to resume exports of ukrainian grain. millions of tons of grain, our stock in ukrainian ports threatening a global food crisis. video earlier, our correspondent julia hun in istanbul, gave us turkeys perspective on the meeting. will the actual summit later to day officially focuses on syria. as you mentioned, russia, iran and turkey support opposing sides in this war. but despite their troubled relations, they have met many times in recent years in this exact form it. but now that ukraine also features on the agenda, this is an opportunity for the turkish president to project influence and power regionally, and internationally. he will get the chance to hold his 1st meeting with vladimir

putin since russia invaded ukraine in february. and that is very significant because turkey is a nato member. but we also know that president edwin has performed a delicate balancing act between russia and ukraine. russia and the west, he try to emerge as the key mediator in this one. that is something that's been viewed, i believe, with both hope and skepticism in western capitals. ad one has offered 4 months to meet with vladimir to put in. now that is going to happen today. he will be the 1st nature leader to sit down, face to face face or with protein. since a late of february or turkey correspond julia han, they're in istanbul. now ukraine authorities say a russian missile attack on the southern city of odessa has injured at least 6 people, including a child, a spokesman for the local military administration cert. russian horses fired at least 7 cruise missiles from the black sea hitting residential areas and destroying

several homes. at s or dr. is home to ukraine's biggest port and is crucial to exporting desperately need the grain to the rest of the world. some 22000000 tons of grain remain stuck there because of the party dw corresponded brownie pie chart joins us now from cheer. fanny, what more can you tell us about this attack on odessa? she is quite list that we know about that small village close to odessa city. according to regional authorities. several people have been injured. you do not know whether they were casualties, but if you look at those pictures, really houses burned to the ground. you really want to ask just to how much more of either injure people or even possible casualties will be reported as the story develops. now, the picture that's painted by russia is much different. they say that actually they hit a military depot or a weapon to pu rather possibly where a western supplied weapons based on this is not clear. just how many depos and,

and what exactly was in there. what, of course, it's in the narrative of the past when ever as civilian casualties, residential buildings, a civilian infrastructure, was it? every time russia sat actually no, that wasn't a target, it was a, the, a military, the poor, any other military infrastructure. now if you zoom in on odessa, but also neighboring mc alive about 140 kilometers to the east, it's not really surprising that russia forces keep hitting these 2 cities to portal towns because it lies in the interest of russia trying to have a land cory door basically old away from the don bus across crimea, all the way up to with the romanian border basically trying to cut off ukraine from the black sea. so likely will unfortunately see more of this indiscriminate shelling and bomb banks across the porto towns. odessa, nikolai, in the coming days and weeks, what do these attacks on port cities, particularly on odessa mean for efforts to resume grain shipments from ukraine yet?

because odessa, honey is crucial for that. you really wonder if there is a deal and likely ukrainian and russian forces back but un, but also turkey. officious. a fetus from turkey will take part in those talks to resume this week about and blocking the ports. you really wonder if you agree on a piece of paper? how is that going to go had practically like, how can those vessels actually leave the ports, read the grain that are stuck in the silos in odessa, for example, about 22000000 tons of them. how can you establish a mutual trust because this is exactly that's in high demand, but in short supply, how can you guarantee that there's some sort of a ceasefire that could in able to unblock the ports and, and, and gap much needed grain out of the country or the wars about to enter a 6 month funny. where do things stand right now in terms of the fighting in

ukraine? is so much time a pass, of course these and both on the ukranian and on the russian side, you have less weapons, you have less man power. but russia actually isn't quite in a dilemma right now because they do want to advance in the don bus region while at the same time, they also need to defend the house and region in the south. and this is where actually the ukrainian forces want to start the cultural offensive, speculating more last that they can stretch to the manpower of the russian forces. so russians actually need to decide now what is more important to down to food. the advance in a don boss, or rather to also then make sure that they can defend the house in region. a lot will depend on manpower and own weapons and ukrainian forces actually say some of the weapons that have arrived. for example, high mars, these long range missiles systems from the us, help them to stabilize a little bit, the situation. but of course, to them in their narrative,

more weapons neat to arrive, to actually turn the tide in their advance and in the, in their interest. on the thank you very much shar correspondent, funny french other in chia draw watching dw news coming to apply from berlin up. next we got business news for you, rob watts will be with us. i'm terry martin for me and all of us here at the w. thanks for watching. i what secrets lie behind these will discover new adventures in 360 degrees and explore fascinating world heritage sites d w.
