clear and kapinsky. the speed of the ukrainian advance seems to have caught some russian forces off guard on roads across the half heave region scenes of destruction and defeat russian military vehicles lie attacked and abandoned ukrainian forces of claim to major victory advancing swiftly across ways of enemy held territory. capturing equipment and cutting russian supply lines in the northeastern city of bala, clia, the blue and yellow flag is flying once again to the surprise of locals who lived through the russian occupation. it was of those when the ukrainian forces came, we honestly didn't expect it, which we honestly didn't expect it. those even when i saw our ukrainian soldiers with does patches, but the ukrainian flag. oh, it was great, great, brutal,

reddish us. they were still like people are happy that liberation has arrived, legal that people are back on their homeland happy that there is no more russian occupation. no more oppression, no more baseman, yet no secret service of yet. but at the same time, people are traumatized by the occupational w yet that i'm, what is ito, a name and they, they circle. bazzi. ukraine's counter offensive has been bolstered by foreign support on a visit to keith. germany's foreign minister promised to keep sending weapons and all the internet to the international arms deliveries, but above all the courage and the will of the ukrainians to fight. i have landed in recent days to the liberation of further territory by and with that the ability of people to return to their life. so given the addon content, but russia is framing things differently, after claiming to send reinforcements to hoc heave, the defense ministry said its withdrawal from the region was a strategic shift, though that the achieve the goal to the special military operation to liberate on

bus a decision was made to regroup russian troops station and the bala clia nicea regents to bolster efforts along the done yes. front, your can. the guardian mm. exclusion struck in ukrainian health pots of don bass following russia's regrouping missiles also fell across hawk. here in the i was after the operation, ukraine remains on alert for more russian retaliation. and for the latest from ukraine were joined. nobody w's nick connelly and keith nick, how significant are these recent gains and you think the army can hold on to the territory? they've recaptured this is truly a big deal. i think this is the biggest shift in territory held that we've seen for months now. if you remember in recent times, we've seen the russians of the ukrainians for that matter, advancing a couple of 100 meters a day may be a few kilometers a week. and this is

a matter of dozens of clumps in the space of a few days. and to top all of that in a part of the country that the russians just weren't expecting, we'd handle that expectation built up about the ukranian can't fence from the south nick at san and in the end it ended up being inserted different part of the country where the russian forces were very poorly supplied, where lots of the russian forces were actually people mobilized from low hunts convenience, often against their will with very little in the way of equipment and military training. we've seen those attempts now by the russian leadership to explain this away is some kind of redirection of forces at, towards don bass. lord, original social media, not just from ukrainians, but also from russians who are now demanding of their leaders who russians in favor of this war, who wants a mobilization or more in the way to kind of stop this ukranian advance. and this is definitely something that people are here in key of weren't necessarily expecting. there's lots of surprise here. and every time you had this news coming through of new towns taken by ukraine forces, people couldn't really believe it until they saw the pictures. those ukrainian

flags going up and germany's foreign minister we saw in our report and on a bareback visit had keep on saturday after months of requests for weapons from the ukrainians did. did she come empty handed think there was a fair bit of disappointment from her ukrainian host meter collab there. he basically the headline of his kind of statement at the press conference essay was timing, timing, timing. he said that you, all these pledges of weapons were well and good, but it was about getting these things here in a hurry. another book, restated germany's previously made pledges for anti aircraft systems. there was the potential may be for some more ammunitions for artillery, but there were no new pledges on tanks. germany has lots of tanks that have been retired, that ukraine would very, very much like to have it yesterday rather than today. but so far, the german government, the coalition government isn't in agreement as to whether or not send these weapons . there was love concern in berlin about escalating some how the conflict by

sending these kinds of systems and the ukrainians are basically saying every day that joe, germany in other western european countries think about delivering or not. that is costing lives on the front lines where those tanks could be used to bring back ukrainian tertiary from ocean control. ok w's nic connelly in key reporting. thanks for that as turn now to some other stories making use around the world. un secretary general, antonio guiterres says the world must provide massive amounts of relief to pakistan after visiting several areas ravaged by floods. record monsoon rains have triggered flooding that has killed nearly 1400 people. large areas of pakistan are still under water and hundreds of thousands of people have been forced from their homes at least 18 people were killed in northern mexico. when a bus collided with a fuel tanker. authority is tomorrow, leap us states said the fuel in the truck exploded. the driver of the tanker

a here in saint james's palace where we are standing at the moment is assigned for that. he is trying to very carefully and slowly is set the royal family on a course of modernization. on the other hand, he really surprised many bred to this because if we remember from the past, then he was always sort of painted as a sort of unlucky figure. if somebody has a bit stiff, not happy with in himself, not a very certain personality, not secure within his own b. and that seemed to really change over night. it seemed a remarkable fro says, and does some people even said he, maybe he shouldn't look quite so relaxed, as so shortly after the death of his mother. but he has shown that he is capable of striking a new tone. he is a bit more personal. he has been what we heard from people observing him here. he's sort of can a show a certain personal warms. he's his remote than elizabeth was. she was the queen in

the old style, the traditional style. of course he who helps herself sort of in, in a distance to people, even though she was very friendly, imprisoned, and, and very turned towards people by chance is going to be very different from that. it bit more modern. it bit more suited maybe to add to the these media times to enter. so he seems to have found already read a happy medium between the requirements of the office. he has to sort of stay apart from, of course, the british populace, in a way, in, on the other hand, to be wisdom and to try to support them emotionally. so it seems he has had very good start here. and can you tell us briefly about quinn, elizabeth, final journey? yes, the final journey will begin to day in the cartesian with her. a casket is going to leave both moral and they are going to travel through through scotland this through

aberdeen through dundee, ab, where people will be lining up at the side of the street, greeting her. and then the it cortege will very slowly make its way towards edinburgh. we're in the casket, we'll be set down in the palace, holly road, at the seat of the scottish sher royalty. and what, wait there till tomorrow and there, then the ceremonies will continue the whole roll family. king charles, as we know, must say, we'll travel up there. and there will be a lying and state and day ceremony at the cathedral in edinburgh. so this is a very long drawn out as a good buy from the queen and the different parts of the country. yet a chance to say good bye to her. okay, the w correspondent, barbara vessel in london, thanks so much. turned her some culture. now the top winners at the venice international film festival have been announced. the golden line for
