using deal gas and gunshots. the un mission to iraq, as well as the united states called on all sides for restraint. the plan up of my limbs follows months of political deadlock in iraq. 6 look the data, so there's movement us up to this block. was the biggest winner in october's election. but he failed to form a government that excluded his. she arrivals close to it on law morrow. my child, he would do. his lama goes from parliament in june. what was said while on my, on buddy and his followers have since been staging a sitting outside the bond im calling for financial elections. well, this isn't the 1st time. the influential carrick has withdrawn from politics. you thought to know for the cotton deadlock in iraq appears hotter to resolve than in the past. ukraine says it's broken through enemy lines at several points. it is a southern city of hassan. it's mounting

a campaign to retake territory occupied by russia. the bush comes after weeks of preparation. ukraine has been attacking roches supply roots in an attempt to rise late troops in the area. russia captured, i saw an early on in the war. i asked former commander military expert, ben hodges, if this is the beginning of a long awaited counter offensive by ukraine's military. well, we're not sure. the ukrainian general staff has done a very good job of protecting information. we know more about the russians and we do about what your cranium courses are doing. but certainly the last few weeks, we have seen the effective use of high mars and other weapon systems to, to do what we call shaping operations to a trip or degrade russian logistics or children rockets. command control, it does, has the feeling does have the feeling of the beginning of something large mom, but we're not sure yet. there's a lot more unfold in the next few days. but would you say that the cranium military
11:09 am
has the capacity to, to launch a successful counter offensive? i do the again, the ukrainian general staff has done a good job of preparation and they have resisted the urge to push every new tank in every new soldier into the current fight. holding on to them to build up a force that would be ready to launch an attack once the conditions are set on the ground. so what we're seeing, for example, the isolation of thousands of russian troops on the north west side of the negro river. for example, the, the significant reduction of artillery from russian side. all of these things are necessary preparations. i think that ukraine, if in fact they do launched their offensive, they will pick the right time in place to do it. and he say, we know more about the russians. how do you expect them to respond?
11:10 am
well, of course we're seeing a variety of, of reactions from nothing's happening. nothing to see over here to people panicking both in terms of soldiers, but also even the civilians on the russian side of the border in belgrade. and i think there's great concern. the problem is that the russians have not yet fixed the many problems that they had that were on display back in february and march, especially their command and control framework for how they make decisions. now move people around, that's, it's still a mess to be candid and there logistical system is fragile, exhausted. it has gotten weaker by the with every passing week. so they're not as able to react to changes in the situation as a, as we might have expected earlier. what about her last week announcing a 10 percent increase in russian troops in ukraine. what's that say about the state of the russian army? well it, it's very interesting 1st that they would say that is
11:11 am
a public acknowledgement that there's a problem. number one number to the i would say that this was the number that they will never get there. and i would bet a large amount of money. there's not $137000.00 russians wanting to step forward and join the military. and in fact, there's a tradition in russia of serious inflation of numbers. they've never had what they said they had, but this is a classic means of corruption to claim you have a certain number to draw salaries, when in fact, you're only paying about a half to 3 quarters of that. so there is a real manpower problem in russia, which is not something that i would have thought i'd said a few months ago. they just don't have people that want to get in this fight. and frankly, it's a overall lea, unhealthy population decreasing in size. and i don't think they'll ever get 237000 . and if they did, it would be months before these guys would show up with any level of training and
11:12 am
improper equipment. let's see if this proves to be a turning point and husband's military expert and former command. thank you. thanks for the verbiage. defense ministers from across the european union meeting and product to discuss the blocks military support for ukraine. it talks are expected to focus on setting up a you training for the ukranian army to operate west and weapons. he is a look at some of the military 8 ukraine, his receiving ukraine's ammunition supply is about to get a boost. it's howard sir. artillery units will be stocked with a new toggle shell called the volcano german. he says it's sending several 100 volcano munitions to the front line. the gps and laser guided missiles reach up to 80 kilometers, almost duff saved from the west to particularly high mars and poets is our chances have equalized. that's where you see that with the full one of our shots was answered with 50 shots from then muslim. when needed today,
11:13 am
the ratio is one to 4 or one to 5 frequency. they didn't look defeated within that you did. okay. ah, hi mars are the us supplied long range mobile rocket launches, which have allowed ukraine to hit deep behind russian lies. countries have pledged almost 90000000000 euros worth of equipment or military financing. the u. s. is by far, the biggest donna followed by the united kingdom and the european union. poland is number 4. it's donations include how it's their artillery vehicles like these to replace ukraine. soviet era tanks and cannon lanchester and i think the advance is more successful on our side because our equipment is more modern. we attack the occupiers. more precisely. germany is the 5th biggest military donor. it is now pledged almost 2000000000 years worth of aid, including anti aircraft vehicles and training for troops to operate them.
11:14 am
the melody is in to men who are here will defend the country, highly will. they will defend it against the terrible threat posed to ukraine by russia's brutal war of aggression. and we will continue to support them without financial capabilities, but also with weapons of african buffer. and private individuals have also sent 1000000 for help ukraine by drones, for its fleet of eyes in the sky. foreign support has been crucial in keeping ukraine's resistance efforts afloat and helping it defend its territory for longer than anyone expected. and a reminder of the top stories by following foi on 3rd of pakistan is under water, the widespread flooding. the government says mad made climate change is to blame and rich countries, emissions. the climate change minister says she's never seen anything like at least 30 people have been killed in the iraqi capital, baghdad, and clashes between security forces and supporters of shia cleric malta. the
