7:02 pm
says there is no indication that the missile explosion and poland on tuesday was the result of a deliberate attack. stroke bucks at the blast was likely caused by a ukrainian air defense missile gone astray. 2 people were killed in the explosion in a town near the polish border with ukraine. the missiles struck poland as moscow was carrying out white spread strikes on ukraine, raising fierce that nato might be dragged into direct conflict with russia. that's take a listen to the nato chief speaking this morning. but we have no indication that this was the result of a deliberate attack. and we have no indication that the russia is preparing offensive military actions against natal. our preliminary analysis suggests that the incident was likely caused by a ukrainian air defense me sign fired to the fence,
7:03 pm
ukrainian territory against russian cruise missile attacks. but let me be clear, this is not ukraine's fault. russia bears ultimate responsibility as it continues. it's illegal war against ukraine to w. terry shoals was at that press conference in brussels and she told us more about stock box comments. well, i think we've got a good summary now, but there are some important points. i think that bear repeating and that is stilton berg was very careful to say that nato does not believe that russia is planning offensive attacks against it. and you know it's, it's a very simple, simple sentence but, but it's quite so quite stark. if you, if you think about it, because of course, nato is, is working constantly to deter russia from any attacks and to defend against any
7:04 pm
possible attacks. and that's why there are all these additional resources in the countries bordering russia. but he says now that that they do not believe that moscow is even planning any such attack. so i found that one of the most interesting things to come out of the press conference today. now both nato and it did, the polish government soon came to deescalate absolutely they, they both. i wanted to make, make clear that this was not an attack from, from russia. because of course, that would throw into into a cycle all kinds of responses that you really wouldn't want to use unless this was a deliberate attack by an enemy. and so once the polish government came out and said this, and we had a secretary general stilton berg saying it almost at the same time as president duda. they very much made clear that what they wanted to focus on now was how unfortunate it was. but also that russia should not be exonerated because ukraine wouldn't need these air defenses going off all the time of fresh wasn't, you know,
7:05 pm
constantly showering missiles down on ukraine. now, what's the view then in brussels? terry, is there a sense of increased danger of nato being dragged into this war? does this just serve as a reminder? i think that last night as things were much more tense, i can tell you that i worked late into the night here here, here in the studio when it was unclear whether this was a missile, fired by russia, and many, early reports by news organizations also said russian missile fired at ukraine. i mean, in fact, it is a russian made missile. and so there was, you know, that added to the confusion last night. i think today there's a lot of relief at nato headquarters. but at the same time, we saw nato allies also increase their defenses on the latvian government, for example, called an emergency meeting of its own government this morning to assess what was happening in poland. now again, in, in, in all nato capital,
7:06 pm
as i'm sure there's going to be a lot of relief that this is not an attack by russia. but it just shows how nerves are constantly on edge because 3 miles over the border into poland. it's not a very big area. this is easily something that could happen. no, will anything of substance change from a to annoy any any action be taken? i think military planners will look again at the areas of, of nato territory that are covered. of course, as i said, this is just 3 miles into poland from ukraine and nato is only bound to, to protect every inch of nato territory. but still timber was asked whether, whether he thought that nato's own air defense shield should be extended. some is some ways further into ukraine in order to make sure no missiles could get through it. and he said, that's not really something that's being considered at the moment. what he wants to focus on is getting more air defense capabilities to ukraine itself, so that they can block them before they get into into nato territory. i think that they'll be taking a good look at their,
7:07 pm
at their defensive plans today and making sure that there are not gaps that something like this could happen again. terry, she'll stand in brussels for us. thank you terry l u d w z m. phillip schultz explained how cute reacted. well, so far, no member of the ukrainian government has officially, except the preliminary results that were presented by poland and of a nato members. as you know, those results seem to indicate that it was an accident caused by ukrainian defense . one of the few statements we have at the moment comes from the ukrainian foreign minister, caliber who is quoted. so saying that it is too early to comment on anything until there are final results of the investigation. another brief statement issued sher by the secretary of ukraine's security council, even sounds more skeptical,
7:08 pm
or secretary says that he demands more information from a ukraine's western allies and he demands access to the site of the explosion. so at the moment, there's still a lot of confusion about the official ukrainian position. all we know is that president lensky called it a significant escalation in the morning. and most people here say that regardless who is behind the attack in the end, it's so russia who is to blame because without the invasion but without the mess, if it takes yesterday, none of this would have happened. but the landscape healy must, must have known that it is, is not sure that it was a russian attack. why is he still calling it a significant escalation? well, i think because it shows once again that there is a significant threat for neighboring countries. and of course, it's obvious that you crane hopes for more western supports. and sir,
7:09 pm
it is also obvious that sir, when there's a strong feeling in the neighboring countries and nato member countries, that's the threat as a very closer to home. and that it helps the ukrainians in showing the world where they have experienced 1st hand or during the last 9 months of the war. and it is also reflected by a remark by the ukrainian defense minister, who once again said that ukraine once and no fly zone over the country. and that is in the direct interests of nato allies to, to issue such a no fly zone. but at the moment we just have to be patient, we just have to wait for further facts and we have to wait, of course for an official reaction by the ukrainian government. our correspondent

philip shots, they're joining us from keith. thank you. i'm philip. the g 20 summit on the indonesian island of bali has ended with a joint declaration that clearly condemns the worn ukraine. even though russia is a g. 20 member. the summit closing statement said leaders and denounced the war despite some divisions among the group. western leaders also met on the sidelines of the g 20 to discuss the missile explosion on the polish border. germany's chancellor, all of charlotte's called for a thorough investigation and warned against drawing hasty conclusions. indonesia, president joke of the dodo who hosted the g 20, called the incident and poland regrettable at the guy. so i did russia as a g 20 member, agrees to a communique that condemns the war in ukraine. i put that question to d. w's alexander phenomena in bali was very interesting question because of course you would assume that russia would do anything to prevent the strong
7:11 pm
condemnation of its war on ukraine from being included in the official document. and we put this question 2 officials to western officials here in bali. and they told us that it was a success for the indonesian presidency of the g 20. they were reaching out talking to every member of the g 20. but they also stressed that russia was becoming increasingly isolated here with more and more and emerging economies. india, for instance, being in favor of such a strong statement. so they assume that in the end, russia just didn't prevent this statement from being published because they didn't want to stand there totally a long time. now for some of the other stories making headlines, iran said media is reporting that a further 3 people will face the death penalty. following weeks of protest against the government. thousands have been arrested off the demonstrations spot for the
