a barrage of missiles on areas far from the front line and ukraine. fear and uncertainty have now returned to places of relative calm and safety. while the latest attacks hit several civilian targets, russian president vladimir putin says the shelling is retaliation for the explosion on a key bridge, linking russia to the annexed region of crimea. even though it is still unclear who is responsible for that attack, the barrage of strikes destroyed a critical infrastructure across ukraine. water and electricity plants were hit, as well as residential homes for civilians. and the trauma of war is being compounded by worry over the coming months. winter is looming and in ukraine, temperatures often fall below 0 degrees celsius. many people now face the reality of getting through it without heat or hot water. rockets have been

raining down on harkey for months. and the apartment buildings in the eastern district of salty fca have borne the brunt of it. lay on 8 lives on the 1st floor, the impacts of ripped through his apartment, destroying walls, furniture, the refrigerator with his window panes gone. the wind blows right through the flat, lay on it is trying to prepare for the winter woodward woodland motor. i'll figure something out and look around to make things pleasant and comfortable for myself. good afternoon. i might buy a sheet of metal, attach it here and make a hole in it. so i could set up a wood stove on the gym, cut off because you can cook on that. and when it gives off heat durgy about it, that would help lay on it be less dependent on electricity. when a russian rocket hit this power plant near harkey, his flat was also affected by the blackout. parts of the power grid and eastern

ukraine were out for hours. there was no electricity or running water and the subway in the city with more than a 1000000 residence stood still. so he theses grains, hundreds of thousands of ukrainians were sitting in the dark without power out of school. home hospitals, schools, these municipal infrastructure on russian rockets are aiming straight their targets that have nothing to do with our armed forces. infrastructure, seal, master desktop in presidents. so lensky home town of cree bearish, a damn, was severely damaged, several streets blooded, and the drinking water supply to the city of more than 600000 largely stopped working. russian attacks on critical infrastructure in ukraine are on the rise. the government fears the country is facing its toughest winter since gaining independence in 1991. that's partly why so much maintenance work is currently under

way, like here on a sub station and the so low means key districts of key with the team from a local power grade is preparing the capitol to whether the cold season they are very aware of potential attacks on the grid, the fuel with all these attacks keep up. there may be interruptions to the power supply for resident us and other consumers should. but we're preparing for that kind of scenario. the key thing we've put together plans and coordination with the municipal administration was good and the central energy system thrown on that. if that happens somewhere, we'll do our job little what the good with the war has caused the countries energy consumption to plummet. much of the industrial sector has shut down, and millions of people have fled abroad. energy experts say ukraine is currently using 40 percent less than its average electricity and gas consumption. they say

the country is prepared for winter. not it was done in the past. we have enough gas reserves the shuttle and enough coal. we might even make a profit from selling power lifted on that he. we can make it fine other winter. it wasn't quickly too soon, but only if rockets don't hit our infrastructure data collection, such as our combined heat and power stations, nuclear scientists, or other power, atlanta sunset or sexual. if they get heads, they'll stop working, da, da, da. when it was the would be shot, this must be more that's part of the reason why the government is urging people to also independently prepare for winter. and that in the home of lucia is running out of time for house near huston mill airport was hit half a year ago by a russian projectile. the only reason she and her family survived is because they'd already fled. yeah, but the cello, that 1st i cried a lot alcala. it was really hard for me because she knew bloating to my 14 year old son brought up in the morning and said, mom highly, don't cry all over the dumpster, all rebuild your house,

kitchen and the blush as it looked to be hot. the will do what they are currently staying at their neighbors, but in just 2 weeks they will have to return to their still unfinished house, which they been rebuilding with the help of volunteers. there is still no heating. no. oh yes ma'am. we need a boiler daily to either one that runs on a solid fuel or electric little because we don't have any gas and we're not getting it back. i. e. e, one, they did, nobody so solid fuel or electric water, but they both cost money and cost of and that's really unrealistic for people who've lost that. everything's a doza, nidia, and i'd linear lucia is thinking about taking out a loan to protect your family from the cold. the war has stripped ukrainians of security. many households are tied on money and millions of people are heading into the winter months plagued with uncertainty italy is

on the cost of a historic change of government. the country is poised to have its 1st female prime minister once the results are confirmed and georgia maloney will also be italy's 1st far right leader since world war 2, she is crystal clear about her vision for the country. maloney is a champion for conservative family values and rejects the l g t b q community one that monica and maria belong to a couple lives in sicily and maloney's victory has set off alarm bells for them. they fear the far right leader and her brothers of italy. party will be a threat to their family values. monica sub okay, comes from katana city in sicily. her wife maria career us is from barcelona name at 15 years ago and described their meeting as love at 1st sight. shortly afterward, maria gave birth to her son pau with the help of

a sperm donation. and 9 months later monica had her daughter mia the same when ah, and you can taste it now and later. to see my wife such a big spoon, i remember would you rather lick it off my fingers. now? the election victory of the far right party coalition cast a cloud over the family, monica, and maria worry about the future. so milton, for my daughter, won the st. our children are well aware of what's going on and on a and now when they hear the name george maloney, they get scared or not. they asked us, what would happen that not only reassured them, they shouldn't worry loudly to that i'm in their children or alarm because of speeches like this one by georgia, maloney, the leader of the far right brothers of italy. pardon me? say no. yes. the traditional family, not godaddy. no, no, to the l g b t lobby of it, they the yeah it a sexual identity?

no, no, to gender ideology at all. the yes, to the culture of my ada. no. to the culture of death, a strong words which carry all the way to mountain aetna in cataneo. maria and monica fear. hard times lie ahead for families like theirs and that the l. g. b t q . community will face an erosion of civil rights under the new administration. we for po, delicate, don't know how long his sympathetic with george maloney scares me because so far she hasn't shifted her position enough for lead. and so i doubt that she will change them. now the bigger and this goes beyond a political agenda. it's a precise idea of what society and politics should look like shown. grande, seymour, i fear that minority writes lucy, a make big set bang, 80 feet, bellamy, not on say something she both women work in academia and they also worry that the aggressive rhetoric will poison the social climate. c stand no. so when on both off because the danger is that these things become acceptable so that you can insult

women or be openly homophobic without any consequences, the man didn't food to the nan did. during the election campaign, georgia maloney tried to present herself as a moderate politician. but she made it clear that for her a family should only be one thing. we couldn't readily leaky as far as the rights law we're couples are concerned. and you know, there are already registered civil partnerships, and that is quite sufficient. for me. i'm against adoption rights for gay and lesbian couples. not because i'm homophobic as some say, but simply because children need a mother and a father and a stable relationship, which is what our current legislation already provide. us with moderates, the benita that i go. yeah, a little bit of it almost religion. shamia sucka is a professor at the university of rome. she studies political phenomena and has taken a close look at ga maloney as election campaign and at her political values. quinn, look at the on the on her pain can be summed up with one of her slogan logon as i

am a mother, i am a christian, and i am a woman. actually, this actually describes her and her parties, political culture on the ship. and we believe this will also be her guiding principle when she steps into office at it and kill us at san diego at him. professor soccer says this is also because the heart right party will have less margin to take action in other areas. she said, i'll nat since they have little room to maneuver in economic and foreign policy. the new government is more likely to emphasize identity issues. and sadie minorities could be used as pawns to make a political martin. what this means for monica, maria pau and mia is not yet foreseeable. if the situation worsens, the family already has a plan for $84.00. ah, a profit in young cal, provis. if federalists at all. if one through ation gets worse, if we're ready to move to another country for the safety of our children and our

children, our top priority for a lot of pay. and they'd be willing to leave our home country for their rights and well being forced on get that us video me. monica's hope is that georgia maloney will not revert to social policies of the past, which discriminated against minorities. as such, a shift would significantly change the lives of her family and of many other italians. autumn may be upon us, but the traces of europe sweltering summer still linger. extreme temperatures left a trail of destruction across the continent with harvests withered rivers dried out, and forests scorched. but there is a silver lining for some europeans like those in frances champagne region. and quill producers of the sparkling wine are raising a glass to an exceptional year. and wine growers, cedric new se, is looking forward to an excellent champagne vintage.

here in france, a champagne region, wine makers have waited all year for this moment. this is when they see whether all their efforts this year have paid off philip, which is more than an employee. this is the product of our year's work. also cope with the great lar mills these next few days will decide everything. yeah. will. of course i couldn't sleep allow you nice little said to think no say is a 4th generation wine grower. he's convinced 2022 is an exceptionally good champagne vintage your bomb for live police. there's no rush. it's fantastic because it's february. look at it. he's an oxidizing radiator like caviar, if possible makes very good champagne. it's a great he lug on them. and this, although the champagne region along with the rest of europe experienced

a heat wave this past summer with record temperatures and drought cool. talk out, look, these grapes ripened without a drop of rain in 3 months. it's incredible. this is your stock lab. great. finds actually pull water from deep in the soil, thanks to their long roots. when agricultural fits, the routes are a problem for most farmers or not, but the roots of grapevines can grow 8 to 10 meters down. they get water from a look in the soil where there are also more nutrients and mineral you are the more meaningful ill them off the soil impacts the grapes utilize. just imagine how they'll taste. you mentioned the l. a fun or jessica separately. happy wine growers though patience is needed. i yes, go ahead. the why in prism

it will take 3 years into the champagne is ready and they can taste it to see if it really is a great champagne. it's i'm sure. as of right now, this is grape juice help them the juice turns into wine and only then to champagne . oh yeah, it takes time. goes on it. the more you this here. yeah, i hear juice. i am looking for if it has a complex labor with a fresh finish and a yellow fruit outside. the reason it's very nice and excellent harvest after too bad ones. the price of champagne however, won't be falling any time soon. schools will fit the submit. any of this year will balance out the past 2 less good year. let me quickly show reduction cost remain the same every year, but last year the harvest couldn't cover the causal. la nina. cool. i pretty cool. so i'm not sure champagne prices will drop unfortunately for consumers i knew

missile key murder was well portable cilenzo sate weakness. se will produce over 100000 bottles of champagne from this year's harvest. he sells to buyers around the world. so silver film is 100 percent lonia. great variety. vintage 2017. a vintage that's peaked. this american wine buyer's interest isn't really cold to feed though the beginning of life. it's amazing compared to last year. there there's, it's just night and day. you know that the difference, so we're all really excited. we're all relate the demand is quite high, i would say in new york and as but in the world, i think it's becoming more and more more popular with marketing since social media last year. record amount of champagne was sold worldwide.

set lake must say, send 70 percent of his produce abroad. the by poisons of 2 pallets are going to the us out. who to luxembourg marissa america is our most important market after fred said to like most say, wants to stop exporting to russia because of the war in ukraine. even though this would mean a financial setback. go sell stuff that will actually be high. you live to sell 5 percent of my products to russia, so round about by 1000 bottles per year, 2000, but this year, they're not getting any until things have calmed down. sure. suppose was all due today. russia is trying to conquer a part of the world and we could find ourselves at more with them tomorrow. do mel players selling them? my champagne is out of the question with the new law, the multi with a full cur. well, this aside, wine grove, is here hope to sell 325000000 bottles of champagne this year, which would mark

a historic record. shaheen and albania is a growing tourist destination, located on the northern, adriatic coast, and living alongside the visitors are several 100 refugees from afghanistan. while they arrived at a resort after being evacuated from capital by the united states. but what was supposed to be a brief stop over for jam, she'd act, barry has turned into an agonizing wait job. she'd act barry always loved basketball. back home in afghanistan, he used to coach a women's team professionally. the income comfortably sustained job. she'd and his family thus good. last of all is my life and was my greatest passion. i had reached a national level. i worked as a coach and coached a women's basketball team. basketball, the hostile bought the taliban band,

the herd, her settlements on the valeca plan, nina, things run a little differently than down in the valley for generations. they have been hurting cows during the summer months, according to their own rules and fellow mush 50 years ago. my husband brought me up here for the 1st time, and our children are now 50 years old. their children were here themselves. now. just collect vamos them. i get up at 5 am, milk, the cows clean up and prep the mount before making the cheese. that that's life up here. the farmers are usually down in the valley, but from june to september they had up to the alpine past is when exactly that happens is decided by the herders parliament which meets in this building as well. and that's pretty unique, says robert sam leon, who runs a small restaurant. me, him on moon william, we call it a parliament with as if we were a small country up here, into the liam or seen him. robert and his wife only serve produce,

made up in the alpine pastors. this was also decided by the herd as parliament fashion. it would have usa, so report each cow. you get one vote now, you know, we have 6 cows. so we have 6 boat, so we boat on how to clean the pasture was where to fix the fences where to direct the water and which paths to repair, things like that. i as i opened novel with rights however come responsibilities cycle. can i have a more shit in the summer? the herders have still 3, many worth the 8 hours of it per cow. do you that better avoid this blocked level? got the genders in this grassroots democracy. the herder with the most cows has the biggest number of votes, but also the most community duties. old customs remain, but the alpine pastor is changing. out of $64.00 huts, only 13 are still inhabited. tourist loved the seclusion, but what about the younger generation is my boy thump a tourism will be here for a long time, but probably not the herders really yeah. young people stay in the valley and go to

school there. well necessary. the hope is that a good community will encourage herders to return again next summer to this unique place in slovenia. well, at least they don't have to worry about energy prices. that's all from this. we get focus on europe. thanks so much for watching and bye for now. ah, ah, with
