about survival. thanks to music. fetched the cello playoff. well, i was the only one i'm super lucky. music under the swastika starts november 19th on d. w. ah ah. this is d w. news live from berlin, celebrations in ukraine. the southern city of hassan is liberated by ukrainian forces. crowds share russia's retreat, and president zalinski calls it and historic day. also coming up, the democrats, a step closer to securing a majority in the us senate mach kelly. when's

a key raised in arizona? meaning the democrats draw even with the republicans. 2 of the senate races are still undecided and employed as legal football. i'll be like, think of one for the 9th time in 10 outings, beating bremen, that and much more coming up later in our sport segment. ah told me a logical thanks for joining us. ukraine is celebrating its biggest victory since the start of the war in february. ukrainian troops have liberated the southern city of house on after rushes, occupy occupation forces retreated from the area. but president vladimir zalinski says russian troops destroyed the cities critical infrastructure before fleeing. oh greetings. from here soon is the message from this

ukrainian soldier. russian troops occupied the city for 8 months, now jubilant crowds of welcome their own special forces, back to their home town. the liberation of her son is also being celebrated in the capital. keith many fled here from her son, including the law demand, his 5 year old daughter's to vanya, the little girl can't wait to see her grandmother again. luma, but what a little. so we want to go back to her song, but it's still too dangerous for my daughter. number's, we need daycare and a school. i don't know. one will be able to go back with us on will be rebuild, it will go with difference in her son was the only regional capital the russians managed to capture. after the invasion, the kremlin has confirmed that $30000.00 of its troops are withdrawn from the city and the region to the north tuscan in costa, a full, it's

a big success for ukraine and a heavy blow for russian. not just in military terms, but politically also, how to your god, russia illegally annexed the area, and now the authorities have to justify losing it. again, it's the most money. all of it vertiginous is, could be, could have exit. it's not completely over russian media sharing images of a large damn not far from her son, being partly blown up after ukrainian troops regained control of hess, announced our correspondence in cave. nick connelly if president lensky is right to call it a historic day. i mean, the thing here is that the song is basically that was the only area of ukraine west, the new pro river that russia had taken hold of them, that they allowed them to constantly threaten ukraine's access to the see ports like a desa micheler. people might have heard of them is the great deal sending ukraine's food exports to the world. and they are under constant threat from russian artillery russian missile attacks. and that is now going to be that much more difficult for us to do. ukraine has secured its access to world trade to kind of

secure its economy. but this is also crucial that basically the ukraine stress she has paid off rather than sending lots of troops to die, kind of throwing them at the russian front lines. as has been the tactic that the russians seem to be using with their newly mobilized troops, ukraine has basically methodically gone about, depriving russian troops of their supply lines, destroying bridges, destroying pontoon bridges, and basically making it impossible for the russians to resupply their garrison. their status on liberally seen them running out of ammunition in recent weeks. i'm to think 3 times before replying to ukrainian fire. and that busy now has led to a situation where russia had basically no option but to pull out with seeming a very limited casualties on the ukranian side and the ukrainians have, you know, filled and the troops have gone in, but is it safe enough for civilians to return but for now, the authorities are calling on civilians to keep away, to allow them to kind of make sure that everything is safe there, believe to be and we've seen already pictures of lots of mines. lots of kind of

improvised booby traps often that something as simple as a grenade, attached to some kind of bushes, with a bit of fishing wire that you can actually not see in long grass. and these are kind of things that have a very long life. so even in months and years to come, this can be dangerous. also lots of the civilian infrastructure was destroyed by the russians as they were leaving the city. things like power supplies, mobile phone networks. so it's really a difficult place to live, but to add on to that, i think the real major point is that you have the russian still now angry and you're feeling simulated on the other side of the deeper river with very strong artillery. so we are potentially in a position to really constantly attack city with those artillery strikes and make life very, very difficult. quickly, nick, what next for the ukrainian military? well i think no one really expects him to follow the russians across the river. that is just too difficult, a kind of miniature operation to countenance bridges being blown up. so i think the focus will move towards the east towards dumbass,

and i think the ukrainians are in no mood to kind of end their offensive. now that winter's coming in, i think they're going to try to push on their advantage and really try if they can't push russia back to ukraine's internationally recognized borders and not just to where they were in february, but all the way to the russian border. that definitely is the mood here in care of where people are really not up for any kind of compromise with the russians right now. okay, d, w, 's, an economy in cave. thank you. here are some more of the other stories making headlines, warring parties, and if you'll be assigned a deal allowing humanitarian supplies into the wart on t grey region earlier, the government anti grand commanders agree to and a long running civil conflict. if you appear, says aid is reaching the region by the opposing forces that dispute the claim. president joe biden is meeting southeast asian leaders in cambodia. he was the regional block to help contain china's growing influence. biden is promising to tackle key issues including the rule of law. he's also preparing for talks with

a chinese president, jiang ping by made them warm to the us. now where days after the midterm elections control of congress remains undecided, democrat mon kelly has been reelected in arizona senate race he defeated blake masters, was backed by donald trump and is yet to concede, democrats and republicans now $49.00 seats, each of the upper house of congress control will come down to the result in nevada or georgia, which is going to run off in december. our washington correspondent to lisa must gander has more on the significance of this victory for the democrats and president joe biden. well, nowadays, tommy arizona's always important. i mean, it's been cheated, the democrats razor than majority that they've had until in the senate until now. and president bided in some may remember, narrowly won the state and 2020 of so the victory for mar kelly puts the democrats

one seat away from extending their senate majority for another 2 years. and there was so much money spent on campaigns on both sides of the aisle here told me to energize voters also to target latino voters who make a big part of the electorate. but i shouldn't, i should say that it didn't really come as a shock. and the democrat, mark kelley was favored heading into the election. and he had opened up a lead over his opponent. and so now going forward, as you mentioned in your lead, and there's going to be all the more scrutiny on what comes out of nevada. that's the other swing state. we're vote counting is still taking place to decide who wins that the senate that's going to be key. and then of course, we will all look to georgia. we're going to see a run off between the republican and the democrat. they are running for senate on december 6. so all in all, arizona is of course, very important, but we're still waiting for some decisive results. and mark kelley defeated a candidate that was backed by a former president donald trump. what does this tell us about? trump's influence at the moment?

well, the former president hasn't been having the best of weeks. i mean, many of the candidates he endorsed like blake masters in arizona, like a doctor or in pennsylvania, lost their races. and i think what's important to note here is that we're actually even seeing conservative right wing media starting to question the former president's influence on the party, how good he is for the party. so fox news, for example, here in the u. s. has been hosting guests who have been openly calling for donald trump to move on. i. he is furious about that. he has been a blaming republicans on his social media network, truth social. and he still expect to announce next week that he's running again for president. so i think it's important as well to say that the former president has been counted out before, and it is too soon to say whether his reign over the republican party is over. i do want to add, though, that he has started a movement in the republican party, a movement of conservative populism. that is still very influential. he has

influence over several candidates who were running in the mid terms. and i think that it's important to remember that president trunks influence and what he has started, what he has unleashed and the republican party certainly is not over to them very ah, football and, and the bundles lager are be lighted. have climbed to 2nd place in the table with a 21 victory at vera breyman. andre silver scored one and set up another for leipzig there on something of a hot streak. now having 19 of their past 10 league games that the most in form team in the bundis league, a right now, i'll be like 6 fortunes have been transformed under coach marker. rosa rose as pressing star was in evidence for the opening goal. any of force back searched forward with options either side. the plump for andre silva and silver did the rest it was just his 2nd goal of the season,
