that actual casualties likely to be much higher. the report comes as a series of explosions rocked the occupied nuclear power plant in separation renew and concerns over the safety of europe's largest nuclear facility. while the southern region of hassan was recently liberated by ukrainian forces after 8 months of russian occupation, more than a week after russian troops retreated, the city of harrison and its surrounding villages are slowly returning to life. they w. nick connelly visited the region, including the village of blackwood that night, the scene of some of the worst fighting in the region. this is the road to harrison or what's left of it. for months, russia and ukraine fought tooth and nail for every meteor. in the end, rushes forces collapsed, unable to cope with ukraine's relentless attacks on the supply lines. a victory has

come at a steep price. this village was just behind the ukrainian forward positions, intact houses, the exception here. rockets like these are just one of the dangers many more i hidden. heading towards cut san we cross what until a week ago was the front line. the crane army wants to show us that they take care not to civilians, no homes, unlike their russian opponents. this village, blah, dudley, is certainly much better shape than the one we've just left. even though until recently, it was home to a russian base. after so many months, cut off from the outside world, people here the glad to finally tell the stories. the martin, one of the russians would break into houses, empty them, take anything they came across. you know, they could stop you on your bike and just take it off. you the same with phones, a wall as well. as soon as it got dark, you just had to lay low. if we sold will we turn around and make herself scarce from, with a new roof. most of this village is residents couldn't get used to the fighting in

life. andrew occupation leaving wasn't an option for everyone who was in, but i say no. what about my animals? who would i have left my chickens, my goats, my pickets with? what do i do about my clothes? lots of people here left after a husband and wife were killed in actually gazing cover. you looked in. do you want? first a shall killed the husband at home, and for 2 days later his widow was killed by another shell in the same house. you thought if there are going to be a re your caller. we me to rena. she works at the village school, which russian soldiers took over as their base should just be inside for the 1st time. who wants to show us yet to receive yahoo, they obviously thought they'd be cash in here, not sure. but all they find where our social security papers normal in the future. they took all the laptops. so, but all the technology, it's all gone and for him getting a guy a gun. hon. almost

a bonus. a list irina grew up here and came back to work at the school more than 15 years ago. he takes to see a parting message left by the russian soldiers. the handwriting may be neat, but the language is anything but in drastic terms. it blames the ukrainians to the war and accuses them of killing women and children before concluding. we'll meet in hell next time. he won't get away from us. even after months on the ground in ukraine, at least some of the russian troops till apparently believe what the commanders and russian tv telling them. let me come now from the russians would repeat the same thing to us over and over. we came here to liberate you who have you liberated me from. i'd ask them my life was fine until you came. now i am not living any more. i'm just surviving, trying to work. i to die or live to see another day. everything was good until you russians came up with new, bought the new bill. and now the russians really are gone. people here are remarkably confident that the ukraine, you know me is back for good. but it's not just the russians that are gone. the

children used to fill these classrooms are also gone, scattered across ukraine and the whole of europe. for now, they and their parents are no hurry to come home. with the correspondence economy filed that report, he shared more on the security situation in hassle. will definitely in sarasota city, which is directly on the new pro river, which separates the western bank, which is now under ukraine control from the russian controlled eastern bank. there you can basically you don't have more than 510 minutes without hearing some artillery hearing explosion. some of that is outgoing, some of that is incoming from the russian. some of that is d mining. there's still lots and lots of minds booby traps left by the russians last week. the definitely is a sense that there is an uptick in the activity from the russian side that are to the initial panic and have shock about the speed which they had to leave. they are now upping their attacks all had a soon key not to allow the ukrainians to enjoy their victory too much. and there is a sense of the very real danger that near with lots of powerful russian artillery just

few comments. well, no, the bank that river that they could, if they wanted to turn fits on, it's not a marable. that was they w correspondent, connelly in kiva little earlier on the grid that monitors the use of land mines in war says, russia's deployment of land mines in ukraine threatens to under 25 years of progress on the issue. the annual report from atlanta, my monitor says 277 civilians have been killed or injured by mines and explosive remnants in ukraine in the 1st part of this year. can there be a more terrifying job at the moment than that of a ukrainian mind clearing technician working with technology that's barely moved forward for decades on the diet. but if the boy did it through, i walk very slowly and carefully. but looking in front of me, one meter to the left, or the other one meter in front, one meter to the right. so i look for something visual and then i check with the

metal detector for minds that could have been planted before it retreated from house on the russian military put down hundreds, maybe thousands of mines, explosives that kill and maim directly and indirectly just outside her son this child's family newly liberated by the ukraine army was heading west, said wilson. oh, the driver of a car in front of us hit a land mine and that car was thrown on us the explosion. i don't know what happened, but my husband was thrown to what other mind. luckily he didn't blow up. he's in a difficult medical condition now. my daughter, an older son were not hurt, but the middle one had to be of assistance. tate, it, he's better now. i thought his whole cry eastern ukraine has become one of the most mind contaminated regions in the world. and with energy and power being targeted by russia. minesweepers are often followed by engineers, rebuilding the power grid. know supposedly you. yesterday i colleagues found

a neutralized and anti personnel mind that had a trend under the mine. there was a grenade in it. it was a booby trap that was placed on purpose at the entrance of the field where we work, grow from 2 reasons. one official estimates ukraine has lost 25 to 30 minesweepers since the war began. and there are at least 200000 square kilometers, not checked, and not d mind that doesn't include regions now occupied by russia. when the war ends, landmines will remain under foot for years. or mari cunningham is the crime program manager at the high la trust which helps clears landmines. i asked her earlier how dangerous the job of clearing mines in the coin is right now. i mean, it's terrifying that not the right word it's. it's undoubtedly there's,

there's risk, there's danger, but it's just a huge job ahead and that's, that's, i think the main point i'd like to, to get across is that the scale of the work and, and we've got teams, men and women, ukrainian men and women on the fields and tough conditions, the winter coming. and so it's, it's an outdoor hard job. but with this, with this risk and scale of contamination across ukraine. as a result, the russian asian this year is as fast as widespread. i'm, we're encountering types of ammunition not seen before. but also legacy soviet stuff that we are very familiar with. so it's, it's really complicated and large scale task head that there will be years of clear work for us and other organizations you touched on, you know, you're trying to mission again before the russian invasion before the invasion started. now you walk working in the was on what additional dangers have you personally encountered?

that's right. so we have has been in ukraine since 2015 with, with over 400. and so that's the challenge of, of the invasion in february and they have that cation of stuff moving and unreal, establishing our operations. it's been a setting up a new program inactive conflicts, so they are going threats of missile strikes. i'm here in bro, very just north 40 minutes northeast. and so the where, where we're constantly hearing eric sirens closer to miss l. strike. but also the challenge of our staff and what they're going through with family and friends affected by this ongoing conflict. so they may have loved ones, family members on the front line that have been injured or killed. and so it's really, it's the constant challenge with that. so i'm going to the complex your work is

taking you to many past and present conflicts. i'm such as cambodia and syria, a one that did that experience, give you any clues or inside of what to expect in your crime? well, i mean, not from a technical perspective. experience, obviously useful. but i think dealing with and ukraine in a country. it's a developed and modern country and so it's got additional challenges in terms of, of existing of a large scale operation as an organization. but on to me, i think that the challenge of operation and that conflicts. but i mean, different parallels from, from different context for halo works like cambodia with tough job refrain, terrain, and how we and our work and here in ukraine, that's what we're facing. that it's, you know, each context where i work at different geographical terrain and we have to

technically up to our work to be able to clear mines in a different environment. briefly if you could, before we go, if the was stop today, how long would it take to clear? he kind of landmines very, very difficult question. i mean, it's possible to quantify, we're only scratching the surface a moment with our, with our service team in the grimes and that so was a 1st stage in mind clearance. it's teams that go out to, to engage with communities and establish where content was of contamination is and only with those teams. can we start to build up a real, more accurate sense of scale that the problem. but i mean, just as a competitive comparison, we were said are they are working with us since 2015 from dealing with the contamination as a result of 2014 earlier iteration and conflict. and we still, we anticipated years ahead of us and i think with the capacity and resources we had

. so i mean, you take that into skills, the conflicts in february and the use of munitions, the widespread scale. it's got years and years of work ahead. myrick cunningham, and program manager at the hello trust. thanks so much for your time. thank you. ok, he's looking out some of the other stories making news around the world. poland is welcome to offer via defense support from germany following a deadly missile strike last week. or so said they would station, the patriot missile systems on the east and border to civilians were killed when a rocket believe to be from a ukrainian. and here, kraft system crashed on far residence in china's capital, begging a facing further shut down for the country battles, a spike in covey, 19 infections, schools and restaurants have been closed in multiple districts with officials calling for residence to stay at home. 2 people died from the virus over the weekend, marking china's 1st reported debts in almost 6 months. because our president

consumer poetry is in jakarta. she told us earlier about the scale of the destruction. you can see so many buildings are collapsed. people are being taken away to the hospitals and to give you a clear picture of the location of the epicenter of the earthquake is basically located in the roar area where people there and build their own house with the simple materials from breaks and woods. and that is why when earthquake like this happens, it could easily collapse and that also applies to their hospitals there. so now the doctors and all the healthcare is trying to do their best to say though, all the patients to the, to do the emergency procedure. but they had to take the patients get are from the hospital just in case the after shots happens again, d. w corresponded pretty consumer brutally in jakarta, speaking to me earlier, a place in the us state of colorado. a trying to determine the motive for a mess, shooting at an l. g. b t. choose not club. the chilled 5 people, glowing gum,

and also injured. 25 patrons at club shoe and colorado springs. the not clubs owners are calling the attack a hate crime. the suspected gunman is in police. custody off the club go, was overpowered him tokens of remembrance, and love for victims of the shooting. colorado springs is a conservative leaning seat. he, in the heart of the us, the attack on patrons at club q has devastated and already marginalized community. our community shattered. this is the only l g b t q i plus space. we have been a city of colorado springs where we didn't go. how can we now do anything like something like this can happen at a vigil held for the victims, the states governor jared polis addressed mourners via video. calling the shooting

a senseless act of evil. in 2018. paula was the 1st openly gay man to be elected governor in the us, close to the business in l. g b to community. and they are more than it's a place where we can gather data and shit and july. i've seen so many of you to do fillings on tooth number. the gunman began firing just moments before midnight. as people in the club were planning to mark the start of the trends gender day of remembrance honoring those killed in trans phobic violence. the outcome here in colorado springs could have been much worse if not for the response from club goers. the city's police chief

said at least 2 club patrons fought and subdued the suspected gunman. before officers arrived and arrested him. investigators are still determining and motives that club cue has issued a statement, calling the shooting a hate attack or looking at some other world news. now. the protest against the peruvian president turned violent as hundreds of demonstrators massed through the capital placed by t gas. when protesters attempted to remove st barricades as than pittsville, custio's 1st year in power has been a turbulent one. he has already faced to impeachment attempts. heavy snowfall has been disrupting traffic across southern sweden, rail and bus services are also affected. authorities have advised residence to stay at home, where the warning has been issued for the capital, stockholm,

and the surrounding region. masses atmosphere, brian capture has flown over the moon. the spacecraft fired its engines at a height of 130 kilometers above the lunar surface. the maneuver is necessary to allow the capital to enter the moon's orbit light of this week. the artemus mission hopes to put astronaut back on the moon by the year 2025 ah sport now and stay to of the football world cup in cats and all field matters are still dominating the headlines before the match with england around players did not sing their national anthem stayed standing in silence as the anthem rang out around the stadium. on sunday, captain is on husky, expressed his solidarity with anti government protesters in iran. that same were urged to act after months of protest spot by the death of

a young woman at the hands of the country's morality place. or for more in this end, the match itself on now joined by mathias broke from dw sports. mattie is going to see, and we'll get onto the match in a moment, looking forward to hearing about that. but let's talk about this is show of silence by the iranian team. here it is a significant sign by the iranian national team, because the team has always been a source of national pride for so many years. and there were one of the few teams left or people left to actually have not really spoken out. and right now that the cameras right on them in the spotlight of the world, to not seeing the national anthem is a bridge, it's a big sign for the support of the anti government protest in the country. and also it wasn't just the team, it was also fans of the iranian national team in the stands, who were actually booing during the national anthem, or showing like thumbs downsides like that. and it's even more remarkable because we have seen, for example, former captain of the national team, ali di,

who's passport has been confiscated after he has spoken out in front, in favor of the anti government protests. so yeah, it is very dangerous. and even more remarkable that their store went through with it on the purchase in the moment, but on to the action for now around me, a very difficult opponent and england can be a difficult opponent for themselves sometimes. but a comfort comfortable victory for england. tell me about it. yeah, absolutely. so if you to start the tournament, this is probably the perfect start for english. so in the end it finish stakes too . so very, very high school on and yes, we probably see a couple of thing that goes very soon. jude bellingham stacks their way up, so he's already one of the future staff of england and bruce the adult. and we'll be happy that he showed himself on the spot. like maybe he actually gets even higher in price after this performance double goes, play soccer, raheem sterling, and then iran scott the for one. and in the end they go to consolation goals in extra time. but overall english with an absolute dominant performance. and if you

would have asked me before the world cup, so who are the favorites to win this tournament? i think they would have names like brazil, argentina. but right now, as we seeing when really clicking like that, it will be really, really hard to not see them going into the next round. as one of the favorites to win the cup. there was at the fate or a moment to look at closely the players with sign that we're going to way a one love bad, including england, harry cain before the tournament. what happened? that's right. so there were 7 countries who were determined to wear that batch, including germany and england, and particularly england. terry came to germany. captain manuel. no, i have spoken out even a couple of days ago saying we are going to wear this almond, which stands for includes fee and diversity. but unfortunately, the fee for has now threatened to yellow caught the players, the actual captains, if they hit the field with this arm band. and obviously if you issue them with a yellow card, that means one yellow card for gold. keep in mind, you know,

as case might be the worst thing in the world, but you receive a 2nd and the next game. and then in the 3rd game you will be banned. so the ramifications for this are very, very high, because usually there's just a monetary phone, which they would have been happy to accept. but right now obviously that they're even threatened to deduct points from the teams. the risk is probably too high and they support it. they said a statement, we are very frustrated by the fee for decision. i'll place a strong support of inclusion and we will support our support in other ways. we both saw it and other ways. we saw england taking a need before the game, which was probably one of the things now that you're able to do without getting fund that is broke from d w sports. thanks for that. now the festive season is approaching in many parts of the world. that means christmas light, subbing switched back on. but in europe and energy crisis because of the war in ukraine has sent power costs, skyrocketing and spark calls to save electricity. in the french capital behind me, lights are illuminating the chandeliers say, again, that some

a questioning where the christmas lights are appropriate. this you ah paris is getting into the holidays. good chance a lazy has turned on its christmas glue with the grand ceremony residence and doris from around the world gathered on the french tappers fin boulevard for the event. but it comes at a time when the french government is aiming for a reduction in the countries energy use europe. ongoing energy crisis and rising cost of living and put a damper on the seals, festive season. many believe that is all the more reason to have something to look forward to is away and live in. this is bringing me with many people here with me that i think if i deeply think thousands of sparking

light boats a decked up on the trees lining the chance elysa every year. this time they will be dawned off earlier at night and run a week shorter than before in a push to save energy. the committee and judge says the light will also consume less electricity compared to last year's display. but not everyone is impressed. we're supposed to feel, i think it's good as a symbol if on board i think it's a bit of green washing up versus what hays symbolic. so it's cool of arctic we're, we're going to say it's good to do was to do it using a little less electricity. the last 2 holiday seasons were disrupted by the pandemic. and now the regions like people across the world are facing yet another you're of uncertainty still for many, these christmas lights are a moment of collective joy. you're watching dateable. the news coming up next on d. w. news, asia authorities in china. try to stamp out a spike in covey cases,
