was of i have this winter. but with russian missiles striking across ukraine for millions that winter will be cold and dark. earlier we asked maria adieva ukraine security analyst in odessa sh. how these power outages were affecting people. there are a lot of people. this is sort of disaster and there are like her districts there where it's, every sin is dark. and then the situation is a very hard, not only for odessa but, but the nearby regions. i've been also to make alive and took care so on. and people are struggling had because for many electricity is also the mean to heat their apartments because they can then you assess my heaters and without the electricity this is not broken. and more or were the water pumps need electricity. turan so no electricity or many boat means no no,

no heat and and no water and the temperatures are getting really low now, especially when the night hours when people. lastly there was maria diva ukrainian security analysts in odessa. now despite this week's massive russian airstrikes, russian troops are retreating from more ukrainian territories. t w's mathias brooding. a takes us to a town, just 4 kilometers from the russian border. there at the russian, troops are gone, but they've left behind them, destruction. it used to take less than 2 hours to drive from hard gifts to off chunks. now it takes 5. you have to take small, local roads and long th was all the major route and bridges are destroyed, which is from the border with russia. the tone was taken on the 1st day of the war. lucas tell us the russians set up a torture chamber in this actually they mostly took young men,

their very vaal affairs. so just ordered him to go there after they caught him outside of the curfew yard, the $11.00 of them i thought they would torture me. well. i came as i was told at 8 am, but they just made me dig trenches was carry stuff around the door and stacks and bags had to be there at 8 am would work until 5 was. that's how they made me slave away. miss girl with a girl for the la militia houghton, everything looks broken and the russians do show from across the board. the people were still here with soon face a tough winter. the electricity is often out and there's no gas for heating. some humanitarian aid does come, but not often. it's so hard to get there. given these conditions,

not everybody is happy, the russians are gone. so usually when they were here, we could still live more or less. normally, there was work and we were getting humanitarian aid every 10 days. they would also hand out money. now we have nothing. he's me busy. there's not much for sale at the market and not many people, many left for russia with the retreating soldiers. it's an area long considered pro russian. now the ukrainians are in charge again. many are anxious and suspicious to paint us as collaborators says a woman, she won't be on camera. oh you did. the mistrust is everywhere. soldiers in charge of the town. worry that lockers are informing the rush yet, but not least. we hear about those who are working with both sides. they used to

tip off the russian hill. now they come to see us and say this, or that person was a collaborator of them, which all tumbled to job there he is only here to have his mother prepare for winter. welcome. took his wife and young daughter out of town and will soon join them with his determined to return and hopes the town can get back to normal ways we're on our soil that we didn't attack anybody another. we don't want anything else on this more shelling. this is what the days are like. involve chance you wouldn't climb attacks or dragon on past their deadline. is world leaders wrangle over how to pay developing countries battered by the impact of climate change. the big sticking point is the need to set up a new fund,

providing cash for countries suffering climate really to disaster. the u was backing a proposal to compensate countries hit by storms grants or floods provided they make tougher emissions cuts, but divisions remain over exactly who would be eligible. the use surprise awful has shaken up climate dogs. we more heard, good morning was the european commission, vice president, as the block will agree to a lawson damage fund, but only as long as countries like china contribute to it. huge steps forward. this is our final offer. this is where the member states can find an agreement, and i, i have to thank all of them for, for the courage to go to go this far. but this is it. lawson damage is the idea of some kind of compensation from rich nations to help poor nations already had hard by extreme climate events. it has been a highly contentious issue and this year's summit many developing countries are

demanding a deal on a new fund to help them cope with the irreparable damage of floods, drought, and other climate impacts. time and funding has so far focus on cutting emissions and projects to have communities adapt to future impacts loss and damage funding would be different in compensating costs that countries can't avoid or adapt to germany's foreign minister has warned against excluding major polluters, hinting at china are still, europe is on the side of the most vulnerable countries and as can now show which side there on the ship. the state that really needed should benefit from it, certainly, and not those that are only developing countries on paper. and vic, long slender since china is the 3rd largest historical amateur of greenhouse gases

and the largest to day. but it has long been considered a developing country by the u. n. b u proposal puts both china and the u. s. on the spot setting of a power struggle among the world's top 3 economies did up his tim schellenberg as at the summit and trammel shake. and earlier he told us the china is unlikely to agree to the deal as it's currently on the table right now. it will be very difficult for china to agree what's on the table at the moment. and that's because china has been part of the g 77, a group of developing countries pushing for exactly this lawson damage fund and the last couple of years. and also doing this past 2 weeks, but was actually on the table right now with me that china would switch from being a potential to put from a potential receiver of money to the side of those who pay for it

a donor. and not as that is not very well seen among the chinese negotiators time for some other new stories making a headlines around the world. the u. s. attorney general has appointed a veteran prosecutor to oversee the investigation of former president donald trump . jack smith will lead inquiries into why trump had classified documents at his florida state and his role in the storming of the u. s. capital. a u. s. judge has sentence convicted francois elizabeth holmes to 11 years in prison. homes had duped investors in her medical start up. the rentals for the cleaning, the company had developed a device which detected diseases from just a few drops of blood. holmes had been convicted of fraud in january. an airliner hit a fire truck during takeoff from lee was international airport through both the airplane and the truck were in motion on the runway where they collided. all passengers and
