corresponded in turkey julia han, if president in order to one hit the right tone for those in grief during his visit in the mind. well, that's for the family, sir, to decide president edwin expressed his condolences. c promised an investigation and financial support to the relatives of those miners who lost their lives. he said, a rescue teams had raced against time to get to the workers. but the death toll has climbed considerably since last evening when the blast happened. some 300 to 350 meters deep inside the mine. and now the last person that was still unaccounted for was also found dead according to add one that brings the death toll to at least $41.00 people. several miners were injured and are hospitalized. i

think the true extent of this tragedy is still unfolding, but for sure it is one of the deadliest industrial accidents here in turkey. in years. really more details will emerge from this single incident, an investigation about the cause of the blast as been launched any updates. for while president edwin promised a thorough investigation, he wrote to hold those responsible accountable. he also load to do more to prevent mining disasters from happening, but he also said that particular mine had passed all necessary inspections. now officials have not yet drawn a definite or definitive conclusions. the energy minister here in turkey yesterday, often initial assessment, said that the boss was likely caused by a fire damper, so called fire them. that's a flammable a gas found in coal mines. c but for sure,

people will continue to ask questions. how could it come to this? it could have been prevented, because this is not the 1st mining disaster here in turkey. some painful memories are coming back from any people here in the country. particularly about one incident in 2014, in the town of soma, where more than 300 people were killed in a mine disaster like this in an explosion. dw correspondent julio han in turkey. many thanks. missiles have been raining down on ukraine for days, but russian president vladimir putin says he doesn't wish to destroy you credit and that he has no immediate plans to keep up with the widespread air strikes. moscow has launched a barrage of strikes on towns and cities for the past 5 days, leaving many ukrainians wondering where they can turn to find safety. o more

destruction. more desperation, separate asia faces another round of shelling. after days of continued attacks, the clean up will be massive news my just to let you know what i can tell you. we will look, we got used to the missile strikes 1st to the only thing she said, we are told to hide, hide where we don't have any place to hide nearby. but while you can't hide in the cellar, got it because you be trapped by debris and no one will find you to regard for so we go outside and we wait until it's over. this fresh missile strike and support easy as part of a continued barrage. but russian president vladimir putin says the high intensity attacks in ukrainian cities will not continue in my seat and there is no need for massive strikes at least for now he just will see from there no of them didn't put in also declared his massive mobilization of russian troops is almost complete with

unable to this work or go mobilization is coming to an end already, no risk as of now $222000.00 of the mobilized, already joining the armed forces of the 300000. i believe that within 2 weeks, about 2 weeks in all mobilization activities will be completed. the mission in race and days, ukraine has free taken much of the russian occupied have san reach and falling, those land gains. russia is now arching civilians to leif had son who feel the presence of a large number of civilians makes it difficult for the military to maneuver. and most likely, shall we say it's dangerous for life. living key affairs, the call for the civilian education in the region could precede an escalation in russian attacks. again, vladimir putin says there will be no more massive strikes on ukraine. i asked mike martin from king's college in london, what the russian leader really means. it's

a bit confusing. bit difficult to tell. i mean, there, there are a few schools of thought. one is that russia is running out of the precision munitions that it needs to hit say, you know, a building in a particular city. and the reason for that, of course, is the sanctions because some of the high tech kit hasn't got through. i think the other explanation is probably that most things environment foods in does including the stripes and cities are aimed at the russian domestic market. and because russia had those setbacks that you just spoke about in your package and her son in the north, they needed to regain the initiative with their own population. and one way of doing that was by launching these massive strikes and now in a sense they, they've done that, they've achieve that objective with their domestic population and, and so now they can move on. putting also mentioned that the partial mobilization will be finalized in 2 weeks. what effective any will this have on the ground

or very little. i mean, the reason it's been curtailed is because it was causing huge problems with in russia. and in fact, the political problems. it was causing, within russia, were far greater than and any military gain that russia could get on the battlefield and ukraine, as many people have left russia as have been mobilized. we've already started the reports of some of the early mobilize, the turning up in ukraine. some with no training, some with just a week of training, and predictably they've been killed. i mean that's what happens with unchained soldiers on a complex battle field. and so it really, the whole mobilization has been politically very difficult. putin, ukrainian forces continue to make gains on the battlefield as they move closer and closer to hassan. any reason to believe they'll be stopped at this point?

the ukraine? no, i think the momentum is with ukraine and it has been for some months, really since the russians there are. so your views, remember they had this big assault over the summer in the dumbass since that grounds or holds. the momentum has been with the ukrainians. just this afternoon so very, very fresh. we're hearing early reports that the ukrainians have started up again in her so on to move down that western bank of the nitro. so it seems that actually over the next week or so we're going to see we need ukrainian push and our, i don't really think that the russians are in the state to stop them. you'll remember last week the coach bridge was destroyed. that was the main supply line to hassan and now the ukrainians are able to go on the offensive, and the russians have many less supplies to defend themselves. i don't really see

the ukrainians being stopped by the russians in their current state. only half a minute left or so mike, but i did want to ask you this week, as you well know, we saw us free of deadly missile attacks here. civilian targets across ukraine with western allies, promising to deliver more anti missile systems. can we expect civilian deaths to decrease? we can, but it will take time. so from a politician promising, assuming that that kit is in stock and ready to go, it will still take 2 or 3 weeks for it to get there. but once it gets there, it will definitely result in fewer civilian deaths. that is a war studies fellow, mike martin, many thanks, as always. thank you. other stories making headlines around the world. now. iranian activists have launched an online appeal, calling for fresh nationwide protests against the clerical leadership. the death of a young woman arrested by the so called morality felice has set off the biggest
