6:00 pm
ah, ah ah ah, this is dw news coming to you live from berlin. fresh attacks on civilian targets in ukraine, missiles, rain down on towns and cities across the country for a 3rd day. also coming up nato leaders gather and brussels to consider the alliances response to the latest attacks. secretary general un stove back says
6:01 pm
strengthening ukraine's air defenses is a top priority. plus the film world as it's voice and some graphic imagery through the protests over the death of a young woman held by a rennes so called morality. ah hello, i'm terry martin. thanks for joining us. more civilian targets had been destroyed in the 3rd day of russian drone and missile attacks against ukraine. a strike on crowded market has killed at least 7 people in the town of, of, to eve in the eastern jeanette's region. the governor says there's no military logic behind the attack. earlier asked our correspondent in key of mathias booting out what he knows about of a deadly air strike in the don't that screech yeah,
6:02 pm
we don't know exactly how it was carried out, but would we've seen as a pictures and social media horrific pitches of bodies lying mixed to market stands . this town of diva is one of the towns where the line of confrontation, the line of contact, came to a halt in 2014, 2015. and it's it ever since been a one of the front line towns and has been frequently showed since the beginning of the full scale invasion february. this year, the shelling has been stepped up all along this line and a all these places are under constant fire. and it's no surprise that place like a market has been hit because the shelling is pretty indiscriminate on civilian objects on military objects. wherever these shells rained down, wherever they fall, that we have seen these missile attacks across the country hitting numerous towns and cities over the past couple of days. mathias, how are people in key of in elsewhere coping with that while life is
6:03 pm
more or less back to normal, people are a little bit more aware of possible strikes more people are going to take shelter at night. for example, when there are air raid alarms, but other than that, or that, or the authorities, the organizations or that, ah, a working on these kinds of things have been very quick to repair the damage to patch a, for example, who's in the roads and repair some some of the damage done to buildings, um so that life can go on and, and traffic can move on this, the problems with energy supply. we have power cuts now all across the city at different times in different parts of the city in order to ease a little bit, the pressure on the power grid that has been damaged by the strikes. the result, parisha, nuclear power mathias has had his power supply interrupted again,
6:04 pm
is the situation there at that nuclear plant under control now that's lost and for that we have yes, these power cuts are of course dangerous because although the power plant has been shut down, although these reactors do not produce electricity at the moment. the, the fuel that's inside needs constant cooling, even when it's not active, when it's not to the point active that it produces electricity. it is still there. still, it is still heating and it needs to be cooled down and the cooling systems rely on electricity, the power lines. now, i used to supply the cooling systems with electricity rather than exporting electricity from the plant or bringing out an tricity from the plant. so this is a vital supply there are generate, is that a run these cooling systems when the power line is cut off, but of course, generate is rely on diesel supplies, et cetera, et cetera. so this is always
6:05 pm
a dangerous moment and the fighting puts this plant under constant stress that and under constant and, and, and puts it in constant danger of accidents which he has. thank you very much. our correspond mathias pulling a there in the ukranian capital. keith, moscow says it, his detained 8 suspects connected to last week's explosion on the bridge connecting russia and the occupied ronnie of crimean peninsula, the security services. they include 5 russians and 3 ukrainians and armenian citizens. or russia says they are suspected of carrying out a terrorist attack, allegedly organized by ukraine. keith has not claimed responsibility for the blast and has called moscow's investigation. nonsense. he w kilian, buyer in riga has more details on those arrests. yes, this be has come out with very detailed plans of how these this bomb allegedly came
6:06 pm
from ukraine to russia, traveling through bulgaria, georgia at armenia and then back into russia. they said it was aboard a truck and it had been hidden inside of plastic construct construction wrapping, thick plastic m material and under which the explosives were hidden around $22.00 tons heavy. the whole thing was, they said they also said they arrested 2 more ukrainian nationals of suspected terrorism. these 2 ukrainian national, one of them had been carrying anti aircraft weapons and the other one explosives taken from an anti tank bomb. and this kind of fits in line of the narrative that the russian state media is pushing and the kremlin is pushing, claiming that the ukrainian state is a terrorist state. and these arrests are the 6 of these successes now, kind of our underline,
6:07 pm
this narrative that the kremlin is pushing. now we also need to remember that this bridge, the crimean bridge was of significant a symbol symbolic importance to president putin. it was his pet project. president putin brought crimea back to the motherland, so to say, when it was illegally annexed a 2014. this bridge was the umbilical cord which was supposed to connect crimea to russia for ever. and now the ukrainians have proven that they can strike it, that they can damage it. in light of recent military defeats by the russian military. em pressure is mounting on the kremlin and on the russian ministry of defense. and of this attack, of course, comes as another significant blow and bad timing. nato leaders or gathering and brussels to discuss boosting ukraine's anti missile defenses. secretary general against old mag says the war has reached
6:08 pm
a pivotal moment. it's the 1st time nato defense ministers have gathered since russia illegally annexed several ukrainian territories. at the same time, 50 countries are taking part in a form set out by the united states to coordinate military aid for keith. the us defense secretary spoke of challenging months ahead. russia's latest barrage against ukraine cities, hes again killed and wounded innocent civilians and put targets with no military purpose in the crosshairs. we will continue to boost ukraine's defensive capabilities for today's urgent needs. and for the long haul did of a is terry schultz is covering that meeting in brussels. i asked her how much more military aid ukraine can expect? yes, terry, that's been a constant refrain from keith since the war began. weapons, weapons weapons is what it wants from nato allies. and today, around the table,
6:09 pm
some 50 countries are meeting to discover exactly what they can give ukraine talking about who has what equipment. but as you mentioned, the priority to date is going to be air defense because as much progress as ukrainian forces have made on the ground without more complex air defense equipment . they can't do anything about these russian attacks from the air. and everyone's been very struck by the loss of civilian life in these recent attacks that the nato secretary general described as horrific, indiscriminate attack. so that's certainly going to be the priority here today. but in fact, what, what they're going to be providing ukraine ranges all the way to winter clothing, how to deal with the months ahead. so certainly of these 50 some countries are discussing what gaps they can help you crane phil, as, as they look at rushes re and re energized attacks on ukrainian cities across the country. and of course, looming over all of this, terry is the nuclear question. how concerned is nato and its partners that president putin will make good on his nuclear threats?
6:10 pm
you always have to be concerned about about the nuclear threat, but nato has reiterated multiple times in recent days that they have not actually seen moscow change. it's posture on nuclear weapons, and that means that they haven't seen any signs that they would actually be moving toward the use of nuclear weapons. at the same time, nato has decided to go ahead with its annual nuclear deterrence exercise is called steadfast noon. that's just an egg and exercise that takes place every year where they practice dropping us supplied a nuclear weapons just in case just in case this is used. of course, to remind moscow that it is not the only one around here with nuclear weapons, while reminding the kremlin that this is a war that cannot be won and should never be fought the kremlin. terry today said that it considers nato as fighting on ukraine's side. do leaders there in brussels? see it that way. i think absolutely. they say they're on ukraine's side.
6:11 pm
obviously they are supplying the weapons that the ukrainians are using to push back the russians from the territory. they've been occupying what, where nato makes. the distinction is that it is not fighting on ukrainian territory . nato has been very careful to keep its forces off of ukraine's territory. they do not want to play into the russian narrative, that this is a fight between nato and russia because that's how the kremlin wants to portray this, to, to gin up support domestically. among its citizens for fighting back against what russia would call nato forces. but i don't think anyone here would take issue with being on ukraine side. in fact, that is exactly what they're doing and they say that they'll be there for as long as it takes terry, thank you so much, is always d w. terry sholtes there from the native ministers, the fence meeting in brussels. israel says it has reached a historic agreement with neighboring lebanon over their shared maritime border. the deal ends
6:12 pm
a years long dispute an unlocked rich gas reserves. it's hoped it could prim proof ties between the 2 countries, which have technically been at war for more than 70 years. ah, the carriage gas field has been at the center of israel and lebanon's border dispute for years. but soon, drilling ships like this one could move from just testing to actually pumping gas back to the israeli coast. of the 2 neighbors seemed to have finally reached a deal on this shed border in a breakthrough. the israeli prime minister yale up he'd said was historic and unprecedented. lebanon's present own has also welcomed the deal which would paved the way his cash trapped country to begin natural gas expiration. although following israel introduction would likely take years in one israeli coastal town close to the border with lebanon. some people was supportive and whichever is
6:13 pm
kimball. i think the deal between israel and lebanon is a good one that will bring peace, shall am recall. oh lam. sometimes it hurts to compromise, but compromise brings good for every wanted double a column. but others worried who had benefit from lebanese gas. we all know that a lot of it is val, are gonna have a lot of chunk of, i mean they're gonna take them. i mean, they're gonna, they're commission, they're caught and they're gonna use it to get war rockets, hulma prime minister benjamin netanyahu has voice, similar criticism, calling the deal and historic surrender to has bela. and that could spell disaster for its future with poles, neck and neck in a general election just weeks away. netanyahu has promised to cancel the deal if he returns to power. fail to read, earned the death of a will young woman in the custody of around. so called morality police last month
6:14 pm
has been fueling nationwide on rest, as well as a wave of protest around the world support for the protest. and also come from the film industry. protest is across iran, continue to defy crackdowns that human rights groups saying, have left dozens of people dead. the demonstrations were ignited by the death of 22 year old mazar armine following her rest for unsuitable attire. by the country's notorious morality police. some support for the women of iran from the world of cinema, the cast of holy spider at its london premier. oh, rainy and film director, ali bossy on the red carpet. we're in clerks robes and bloodied vampire teeth. his film is inspired by true events and tells the story of a journalist played by czar amir abraham, me on the trail of a serial killer. the movie also acts as a critique of iranian society, with the killer who murdered 16 sex workers,
6:15 pm
celebrated by some for cleaning up the straits. i don't know, maybe i think that made a movie inspired. right, so sorry to happen 20 years ago, and unfortunately it's happening right now in your own. and i thing what mike hector or a prison in this movie is exactly what ever, you know, let me many me run arm just doing right now. you know, they come to the freight and they raised their own life for himself and for the others. iranian born load of the ring star neza named bon yadi using her platform to lead a protest in los angeles against the iranian regime. i think the worry is that we've had uprisings in iran once a decade since 1999. and the student uprising in her on the security forces have
6:16 pm
one. and this time, the thing that's unprecedented is that you're seeing people fight back against the security forces, with head coverings mandatory for women across iran. the image of someone cutting her hair is a symbol of defiance. a group of high profile french actors. the musicians have joined campaigners by posting a video themselves, cutting their hair, a symbolic sacrifice in support of iranian women. and joining me now for more is megan leave from d w culture. good, see we're happy to see do. so cutting one hair megan has become a symbolic act in support of iran's protest movement. tell us more about them. ok, well, if you look at major protest movements that have occurred in the past, they all have some sort of symbol connected to them. for example, with the me to movement that we saw was hash tag me to or thousands,
6:17 pm
hundreds of thousands of women were pink woollen, had to protest against donald trump and vulgarity against women. after he was elected in the us back in 2016, and now this movement we have, we've seen hair become the symbol, a defacto symbol, not necessarily started by the protesters in iran was started outside and it's, it is, as we heard in the report it is an act of defiance, but it's also something that's non reversible right away. so women take into social media, cutting their hair off non iranian women as well. you know, in, in an act of solidarity. there have been protests in a ran many times before. they've been crushed by the regime. what's different this time? well, i think one of the things that we're seeing that is a little bit different is how this is playing out. and social media also the celebrity factor. so we have these french actresses who started this hair,
6:18 pm
cutting movement on social media in solidarity with the women in iran. and i think that the celebrity factor in this is a giving more of a voice to these protest across the world, especially through social media. the other thing that i'm noticing are the protests are happening. the sheer numbers that are happening outside of the rhine. these protests are limited to the cities in which the atrocities of taking place in around there, spreading from london to paris to toronto. so we're seeing the sheer numbers growing and the other thing that's notable about this is, this is a movement that doesn't really have any political leaders. it's driven by women and young girls in their fight for more freedoms. in iran, the protests in iran are ultimately political in nature. but culture of
6:19 pm
cultural actors are playing a role. you've already mentioned celebrities talk to us more about how culture fits into all of this. well, i think the culture of players outside of iran help in letting us outside of around have a bigger picture or at least have a picture of what's happening inside the countries. we know that iran state media or the politicians control the state media and they control the internet. so media is so heavily censored, we don't get a lot of information coming out of there. so it's important for filmmakers, artists outside of iran to have a platform to show the world what's happening there. and it's, it's that their way of using their voice is to fight against an impression, oppressive regime. and there is a large iranian diaspora. well, educating people, working in the film industry and elsewhere. megan lee from d. w culture. thank you so much. you're welcome. to africa and ruby's are among
6:20 pm
the most sought after gemstones in the world. but few people know that most of them come from northern mozambique cover delgado province has huge reserves of gas and gold. it's also home to the world's biggest ruby mine, monta poo us. the region is plagued by poverty and violence, and as d w's, adrian increased reports. little of the mineral wealth reaches ordinary mozambique ins the ruby minus on heightened alert the text by insurgents are getting closer and the violence is only one of the problems facing the security team. louis is often good this because these are just going from every day up to 200 people illegally enter the open cast mine hoping to share in the regents mineral wealth using simple tools, they dig tunnels up to 15 meters deep. the mine uses drone pilots to track the
6:21 pm
legal mining, coordinating with the security team, lower range rover feel. keep going. okay, here, stop your coffee at this time only one of the men is caught, he'll go straight to jail and could face the sentence of up to 5 years. i live in one please. i have a 4 year old daughter and a y n with you feel sorry for these guys because if you look at the, if you look at the area they move in. i mean, yes. these are mine. yeah. yes, we can only accommodate so many people in terms of employment. you can't give employment to everyone just in this facilities of our mind. we're looking at about i d 1000 displaced. people are from want to be as of june and july. what a, what do that people do for an income they, they get involved in this, in a village, in the middle of the minor concession. we meet
6:22 pm
a group of young men at his annual minus. they say they have no other options. none of them got a job at the mine. this is my from the who are suffering hair, made i, you know, there's no work. i have no choice but to search for rubies. ah, mark london and it's not lucrative either. i just came back from digging 10 shafts and i found nothing, amanda, you know, but still they hunt us down and arrest us the most, even if we don't have anything for them. the company shows off it's social projects, farms, mobile health clinics and schools. but above all it's pace. plenty of texas says mine manager claudio snuggle nima upwards of 25 percent of our gross revenues have been to the good paid to the government in terms ofa, production, texas and grey artis and tell him that that's a significant amount of money, but how much of that reaches the people here, a government representative in the region shows as
6:23 pm
a list of projects and asks for patients in fame whose advertisement the weight in the past. this district button like it is to day. we didn't have the health facilities that we have now. in the villages around the mine, there are classrooms for the school children that is growth happening. but i don't believe any one expects us to become rich overnight with all these resources, ada, keep on boards. this evolution normal domain to produce again was really good. but there isn't much time left for the regions poorest to get some benefit from the gemstone wealth. in as little as 10 years, the ruby reserves here could be exhausted poverty and the lack of prospects up lane to see some who don't try to get their hands on. rubies rely on catching rodents to feed their families. robots have long been a fixture in industries like car making. their role has largely been confined to
6:24 pm
repetitive mechanical tasks. but the rise of artificial intelligence means robots are moving into sophisticated areas, including the creative arts. one autumn aton has now appeared at a parliamentary inquiry in the u. k. i think the jobs in the u. k. house of lords, and i'm as usual, witnesses takes the stand. well, not quiet. a witness spoke about the robot is providing evidence, but it is not a witness in its m right. and it does. i don't want to offend the robot, but it does not occupy the same status of the human and that you as its creator. oh, to me, at least responsible for the statements. this is ada painter, poet and robot. she appeared in front of you k lawmakers to answer their questions about what role robots like her will play in the future of art. with the
6:25 pm
help of 2 cameras for eyes, ada can see the world in front of her. what she sees is then interrogated by artificial intelligence, allowing her to interpret reality and on her own creative twist to her works much like human artists. but with one key difference, how good human is consciousness. i do not have subjective experiences. despite being able to talk about that. i am and depend on computer programs and algorithms. both are not alive. i can still create art to many. that's an unsettling prospect. no 2 works, ada creates, are the same, and many of them have even been show taste in exhibitions and galleries, but can an android really be an artists role?
6:26 pm
what is really clear is that people still very emotionally, that creativity is a, a purely human activity. and i am, i hate to break the bubble, but my understanding experience of being in this area is that actually creativity is a process, gazing at the last wonder of the ancient world ada herself might just be a window into the wonders of the future. oh though, just reminder the top stories were following for you this hour. indeed up in is a russian strike on a crowded market has killed at least 7 people and ukraine's eastern jeanette screeching. the governor says there's no military logic for the attack. and moscow says it has detained 8 suspects, connected to last week's explosion on the bridge connecting russia and occupied crimea. the suspects include 5 russians and 3 ukrainian and armenian citizen
