along with me and they told us to nikki, to interact with you want to know their story, migrant verifying and reliable information for migrant. ah ah, this is t w. news alive from berlin at the un climate conference host country. egypt tells delegates to rise to the occasion. despite an extra day of talk, there's still no sign of a deal to curb global warming at issue how to compensate those countries already bearing the brunt of climate change. ukrainians confront the dark and cold

aftermath of a week of russian air strikes. keep says, nearly half the nation's power grid has been knocked offline and one in 5 ukrainians is now without electricity. and in sports fif as president, responds to critics of the upcoming world cup in cato, accusing the west of hypocrisy, ah and a warm welcome to our viewers around the world. i'm michael. ok. you, when climate talks are dragging on past their deadline, as world leaders wrangle over how to blunt the impact of a warming planet? the big sticking point is the establishment of a fun to provide cash to vulnerable nations. the e u is backing the proposal, but divisions remain over who should interview and who would benefit. lack of

progress has left some participants wondering if there was any point showing up fronts. timmons, the used top climate official express concern that the global warming limit of 1.5 degrees may be on its deathbed. european union wants a positive result, but we don't want a result at any price. we will not accept the results. if it takes us back, we need to move forward, not backward. so you want to wait. we need to move forward not backwards. and all ministers as if told me, like myself, are prepared to walk away. if we do not have a result that does justice to what the world is waiting for naming that we do something about this climate crisis, t w's, julius, our delhi is at the car, $27.00 in egypt. earlier i asked her if those strong words from franz timmons again used top climate official, indicate there's still a long road to a deal. yeah. what we've heard here is there was actually quite some concern. there

are the negotiations were not going in the right direction. there was expectation that there would be maybe progress during the night, but this morning there was a feeling of chaos and uncertainty, and we saw that, especially, you officials not only friends timmons, but also germany is foreign minister under lena bear book saying that they were really concerned about a back tracking in the agreements here on the 1.5 degree goals, sat in the paris climate agreement, which would mean that countries would abandon the ambition of trying to limit to the rising global temperatures to one to point to 5 degrees. and that is a level which scientists say would limit to a certain degree, the worst consequences of climate change. and there seems to not really be an agreement on wanting to keep with the paris agreement. and keep with the commitment

that countries, again reiterated last year, last year's cop and, and that is causing quite a stir here at cop today. what's in the use proposal and how likely will other countries agree to it here. so we're talking here about a proposal on so called loss and damage. that is the idea that rich developed countries should compensate the most vulnerable countries developing countries for the consequences of climate change, which they are bearing the brunt of and to which they really haven't contributed. much in terms of emissions and the u. s. has like other rich countries, like the u. s. has in the last decades been against compensating poor countries because they were afraid of, of a liability of being held liable for billions of dollars. and this is the 1st time that the u has opened up and put forward a proposal that they would be in favor of establishing

a fund here at cob this year to put together money to then distribute to developing countries. and we've seen in the latest draft put forward by the co presidency here . this seems to be the case in the draft that is putting forward that this year's cop would establish the funding that the details would be hashed out next year. but there are still some tricky issues at hand here which countries are going to be held to have to contribute to this fund the you will once china and other rich countries, india, brazil, to also contribute these countries. on the other hand, especially china, do still want to be considered in the developing sphere. and so it's going to be hard to try to hash out the details in terms of who gives the money and who receives it. got it, and is a d w's. julia sell jelly, they're in shovel, shake watering over a very dynamic situation. millions of people in ukraine or without power,

water or heat as russia continues to target civilian infrastructure. the latest wave of russian missile strikes has disabled, almost half of ukraine's energy grid. and with the fresh snow of the season falling on cave, residents are facing a cold, dark winter captured russian tanks covered in the winter's 1st snow. a reminder of when keith was much closer to the front lines. but while the fighting may be further away, the war is ever present as daily russian strikes have plunged hundreds of thousands into darkness or c accordingly, russia continues to launch me so strikes when ukraine civilian critical infrastructure, waging war against the civilian population, and depriving them of light, water, heat, and communications will almost half of our energy system has been disabled labo while authorities are scrambling to repair the batted power grid as best they can.

residents are preparing for more blackouts. those young woodrow so much a more counting on cas, we bought firewood in the spring when it was already clear, it would be tough and winter. you know, i'm going to live with my parents and use a stow for heating. but with the political risk was like new to tell it it makes life more difficult, but i bought flashlights and candles, so everything is fine and was of i have this winter. but with russian missiles striking across ukraine for millions that winter will be cold and dark, dw correspondent, yon full of shots is in keep in had this to say. but how people in the capital are coping? yes, i think the piece reflects the moods quite well. the situation is very critical indeed, and the power is urgently needed here. now that it's getting really cold,

sir, and the winter is setting in, but it still doesn't change. the morale of the people here ukrainian colleague told me he doesn't know a single person here in ukraine that is willing to give in and a lot of ukrainians are still optimistic that the energy situation will somehow stabilize. and the coming days and weeks yon, what's the sense there? why is russia resorting to these large scale attacks on ukraine's energy infrastructure? i think there are several reasons. first of all, we have seen this patch on over and over when russia suffers to defeat on the battle ground like recently and carson, they resort to massive a missile strikes. but the latest strikes had really reached a new quality and a lot of ukrainians say it's because russia wants to force ukraine to the negotiation table. and they do this by using 2 methods basically by trying to

exhaust the ukrainian air defense systems. as the u. s. pentagon has just analyzed and by destroying the civilian power infrastructure. and of course, it's not a coincidence that says those massive attacks happened now that serve into the winters hudson. i'm curious, are the russian people aware of these attacks and as far as you know, do they still support this war? of course it's very difficult for me to say from, from here, but from what i hear, i think there is still support for this war. and the people are quite aware of the attacks that are happening right now. but at the same time that i still mess of disinformation campaigns in russian media, a colleague, so me almost on a daily basis, new videos that are published so by russian media outlets that are obviously fake,

easy to detect fakes. and that so ukrainian soldiers supposedly committing horrible war crimes. so i think that there's probably not a lot of enthusiasm for the war in russia, but definitely also not a lot of large scale opposition yon phillip sholtes in a very wintry keep. there are many thanks time for some other stories making news at this hour. authorities in china's capital beijing have urged residents to stay home as new cases of throne of iris rise. many restaurants and shops have been shot . the government is trying a more targeted approach to restrictions and made public anger over it's 0 code strategy of city wide long downs and daily mass testing. north korean leader kim jung own has introduced his daughter to the world under the nose of an intercontinental ballistic missile state. media released the 1st public images of
