sponsibility is huge, they have so much to lose shattering the glass ceiling women in architecture. this has to be really, really good. start september 30th on d, w. ah, ah, this is d w. news coming to you live from berlin. plans for a referendum in russian held cast sold are put on whole pro moscow officials had been discussing a vote on the region. joining russia, but ukraine's counter offensive means their plans are quote on polls for now. also

coming up, lose trust will become britain's 4th prime minister in 6 years when she's appointed today. if she takes over a country in crisis, we ask, what's her plan? and germany asks, is really families for forgiveness hubbard's handling of the 1972 munich olympics massacre. president park politician. my acknowledges germany's responsibility for failing to protect israeli athletes at the games. 11 israelis died following and attacked by palestinian millet. ah hello, i'm terry martin. thanks for joining us. russian installed authorities in southern ukraine or did laying a referendum on whether hassan should become part of russia. official cited the security situation. a rare acknowledgement of the ukrainian cow for offense of

their cube says it's making progress and has taken several settlements in southern and eastern ukraine. this video obtained by reuters appears to show soldiers raising ukrainian flag in one small town interest on region. here began it's long way to counter attack last week. with more, let's speak to dw corresponded nick conley, his chip, nick, the occupying authorities and so on say they can hold their plan extension annexation. reverend, rather for security reasons, is this assign. nick, that ukrainian forces are making headway in their efforts to retake us on i think it definitely is. we didn't really ever have a concrete date, but we did understand they wants to hold this referendum, which really reminds us of what russia versus playbook was in crime. me a back in 2014, around kind of the middle of this month of september. i don't think they are going

to give up on trying to do that, but certainly for now that is normal because it's just too hot right now in the headstone, seemingly hourly shelling of russian positions that by you. craig, lots of video on social media, very difficult to verify of attacks on russian western suppose, but also on the infrastructure on the bridges across the new pro river. i think it's important to remember that this is a very localized offensive. this is just about the west bank of the pro river, the small section of territory that rush controls the easy for you to isolate and cut off from supply. this is not because it's not about the much bigger part of 70 crime that it's still fairly comfortably in russian hands. but certainly this is a blow. and we have see been seeing russian pro government blog as being a bit more open there about the damage that the post to doing. and really kind of warning and demanding more in the way of supplies and mute, treat focus from rush. these have to prevent really crane making roads if it's on, is really important symbolic target. this was the 1st major city that russia was able to take me crane right at the beginning of the war with pretty shambolic

ukraine defense. so, so it proves fossil fuel to retake the city that really will be assigned to ukrainian, throws it through, i why to will that ukraine is able to really push back this russian tide, talk to his neck about the separation nuclear plant. so ukraine's president below me, lensky says it's on the burge of disaster. what's going on at that power plant right now. this is a very, very dangerous situation. this is europe's biggest nuclear power plant, one of the biggest world wide, and one that is on the front lines. and we've seen the video and photo images on the internet that show seems, show russian military positions where the russian mature kit on the territory of that nuclear power stations. sometimes even within, inside the structures of this power plant, as we understand any one of the 6 boxes currently operational. but there is shelling going on every day in it around that plant. and we saw those international monitors from those outside, but he's trying to come in to try to get an idea of what's the situation the ground

. they still haven't released a report in full, but there is a feeling that you know, this is a time bomb. and unless this pamphlet is fully shut down, this is something that could relate because it may oppose hom, running to people in ukraine, but also to most of europe. i think it was important to remember that it's not just the danger of a direct hit, but even if the power plant is operational, if for instance, the energy supplied to the plant is interrupted, sometimes that could affect the cooling and could lead to the kind of disaster that we saw in tional, so it's not just about direct hit. it's about any kind of interruption to the work of this power plant that is exceedingly dangerous to hundreds of thousands, not millions of people in this part of europe. nick, thank you very much for now. our correspond nick connelly, they're in tip will fighting around this apparition, nuclear plant has pushed many ukrainians to flee the russian occupied area. those wanting to leave must pass a russian military checkpoint. that opens just once

a day. they are often forced to wait there for hours and undergo audi searches still. for many, the risk of staying behind is too great. the region south of south arisia feels like no man's land. rockets poke out of the asphalt. a destroyed petrol station lies abandoned. you have to get through russian checkpoints and drive through here . if you want to leave the russian occupied south of ukraine, then there's the cues and the waiting also both more and more ukrainians are fleeing the occupied southern territories where life has become unbearable. this family left out of concern for the children and uses it is little. they brought brushing bookstore schools and threatened to go from door to door to take the children back and force them to attend the russian school. but we don't want them to go there middle school and was not a broken windscreen, didn't stop these ukrainians from leaving. they no longer felt safe in the area

surrounding the nuclear power plant. or if there's a power outage and a cooling system fails, we all know that there can be a nuclear meltdown any 2nd. this woman got her children and parents out months ago to her son and safety. now she's decided to follow with her dogs. on every one who doesn't want to cooperate with the russians is leaving a city why they're leaving. because the russians are ordering every one to get a ration. passport the it appears she left just in time ukrainian troops have since launched a long awaited counter offensive to retake the russian held regions surrounding her son. with the fighting intensifying people have been urged to leave. to catch up on a couple of other stories making headlines around the world today. rescue workers are searching for survivors of a 6.8 magnitude earthquake. that struck a southwestern china at least $65.00 people were killed in the monday event in such

one province. the quakes set off landslides in a mountainous area on the edge of the tibetan plateau. canadian police say one of the suspects in a series of fatal stabbings has been found dead. they are still searching for his brother who may be injured. the 2 are accused of killing 10 people and injuring 18 in saskatchewan province. it's one of the deadliest attacks in canada's history now to the u. k. and after a bitter campaign liz trust has been elected leader of britons conservative party and will become the u. k. next prime minister, the contest was sparked by the resignation of prime minister boris johnson. strengthening the economy is set to be the new prime minister's most pressing task with the u. k. facing a cost of living crisis and soaring energy charges in her acceptance speech trust promised to tackle those challenges head on. i will deliver a bold plan to cut taxes and grow our economy. i will deliver only

energy crisis dealing with people's energy bills that all say dealing with the long term issues we have on energy supply crossover to our correspond. barbara basil who is in london. barbara list trust is inheriting a country in crisis. what are the biggest issue she'll have to face immediately as free as prime minister. the biggest issue, without doubt it is the energy price crises. and because prices here have already been doubling, they're supposed to triple towards the end of the year. and particularly small business could just go out of business in their millions because of, for them there is no inherent price cap, and they are struck by, by a $10.00 fold or higher. and it unfold higher energy prices, which is simply not supportable. so this could be

a cap task for feed that i'd rhodes like an avalanche. now newspapers this morning here are saying that what they heard from alice trusted team is that she's going to come in with an energy price freeze that she's going to simply freeze prices in place. and the taxpayer is supposed to pick up the tab. then later for the air towards the energy companies know how that goes together, was the other promise that we heard that she says she will cut taxes. she will sort of lower them than she will not introduce any new tricks as like the windfall tags that her predecessor had planned. it is anybody's guess. economists are warning saying, this somehow doesn't stack up, but still she has to overcome this. inflation is rampant at 10 percent now could rise to 18 percent. so she really has to get a grip on this otherwise, that the winter of discontent that everyone is expecting here in britain is going to bring her down very quickly. okay, so a huge domestic challenges there,

particularly with the economy. ah, what's look a little broader. what about sure. relations between the u. k and brussels. they've been tense to say the least. is that likely to change under list trust that is like the maybe even to get worse than it was before. and devoris johnson because said during her election campaign within the tory party, she really sort of fair ran a very hard line. corey's me to the absolute right side of the party and emphasizing that. the 1st thing she wants to do is, is the deb suspend the northern island protocol out of the breakfast treaty that sort of keeps borders. and we bought a cheque sir, running from between both sides. the republic on ireland and northern island. so that is angering brussels. already they heard this and, and they and saying, please think again, let's not do this. nobody needs a trade war in

a difficult political and economic situation that we all are in and that also britain is in barbara. thank you very much. our correspondent barbara basil there on the streets of london. now 50 years after 11 is really team members were killed at the munich olympics, german president, pon quarters time maya has officially asked for forgiveness of the way his country handled events in 1972 palestinian militant storm, the israeli compound of the olympic village in the ensuing hostage taking 17 people, died with west germany, widely seen as having bungled the security operation. the appeal for forgiveness came at a commemoration in bavaria on monday it was an apology, half a century in the making. germany's acknowledgment that it had failed to protect the 11 israeli olympians who were murdered by terrorists and mishandled the aftermath

of the tragedy. the speakers yield starts over, hopped, is as long as head of state of this country and in the name of the federal republic of germany for gable. i ask for forgiveness even for then munger, for forgiveness, for the lack of protection of the israeli athlete. more at the time of the olympic games and munich on for the and for the lack of clarification afterwards. thus could she incur the fact that what happened was, could happen? this might have finished mine, it is my duty in my need to acknowledge our german responsibility and here and now here, one and for the future on food. so conf. munich, 1972. by hosting the summer olympics, germany wanted to show the world that it was a cheerful, colorful, cosmopolitan country. and that it had overcome the shadows of its nazi past. but then a shock, palestinian militants took control of the israeli athletes residence in the olympic village. they shot to his railways and took 9 hostage,

hoping to free prisoners in israel and germany. the west german authorities bungled the rescue attempt, and in the end all the hostages were killed. alongside 5 of the palestinian gunmen and a local policeman. he owned on mine, the stein meyers apology was a significant moment for the victims families who had threatened to boycott the ceremony after battling for decades for fair compensation from the german government. but shortly before the anniversary, the 2 parties agreed on a 28000000 euro compensation package and the families were in attendance. one survivor on cash spitzer. read a letter to her husband andre, a fencing master and coach who died in the massacre. i will never stop talking about it so that that will never ever happen again. and those who were responsible for it will pay the price. please forgive me on day that it took me so long.
