yes, this isn't successful. the off position is on the rise. heads off with dogs november 25th one d w ah ah, this is d w news coming to live from berlin. the european parliament declares russia a state sponsor of terrorism. the move is largely symbolic, so will it have any impact on the war in ukraine? we'll hear from our correspondent in strossberg, also on the program, another a period, russian, michelle strike on ukrainian civilians. this time ukraine says

a new born baby was killed when a maternity ward was it in the upper risha region. the mother and a doctor of wolf hold were pulled alive from the rubber. during his time of crisis, i can see sadness had make disappointment, but at the same time, i can also see hope. and we report from the epicenter of indonesia is deadly earthquake. and look at survivors out and how they are coping and at the world cup and cutter australia. take an early lead to shop friends with the world champions showed their class by fighting back, giving their title defense a flying star. ah, hello, i'm terry and good to have you with us. the european parliament has voted to designate

russia, a state sponsor of terrorism, pointing to moscow's repeated strikes on civilian targets in ukraine. the move appears to be largely symbolic, however, as the e u does not currently have a legal structure for the designation of state sponsors of terrorism. moral us by contrast, does have such a system and has declined to include russia on it due to concerns that such a move could lead to an intended legal consequence or more of joy. now by dw barbara basil in strossberg barbara phyllis in here, what does this declaration by the european parliament? me it is a political signal that's all his really because you're rightly and said that there is no legal shape form or a basis for this in european law. so they more or less made it up. the initiators,

the, or the who you find among the right wing conservatives and nationalist party, sir, in the european parliament. they made it up as they went to law and they thought and couldn't we, as sort of a, do this said to russia, apply this to russia just as the united states do, per said for to north korea and, and for instance, cuba. so we're the european union, so for only has organizations, lists is listed like hamis and others as, as sponsors of terrorism. and this is the 1st time it happens, it, but it has no legal consequences. because if for, for that the states, the, the membership member states of european union would have to adopt this resolution . and they won't, i mean that much is totally clear. can you imagine germany of france adopting this and saying ok, and we also ready to, to cut off the diplomatic relations to russia. know, they still hope for negotiations and some sort of for diplomatic end to the war. so they're not going to do this. bought aid majority, not very big one,

but the majority of the european parliament has decided today to send this signal to moscow. we think you are a terrorist state. okay, so it's largely symbolic as a signal, as you say, a political signal, but still the moon is extraordinary. barbara, how did the vote come about? the roof is extraordinary. if you look into the resolution and written pages and chapters and chapters of it, and you read through it, it of course it gives you a feeling if you respond emotionally to say yes indeed because they're what parliamentarians are doing here is the sort of listing up the endless alleged atrocities and torture and sexual deb, torture, rape, and other things that are bonding hospitals, bonding schools, bombing in civilian buildings, execution. so, killings of civilians in the thousands. i mean, it is all very clearly and very in great detail and put on

a list. and then at the end, they say, yes we, we draw the conclusion that this is against international law. this is against the law of war. the treaties that have been assigned and is so russia, is it terrorist state basically that it, they simply draw that conclusion. and the problem here is the legal side. as we mentioned, the political site is fairly clear, but the european parliament was hugely split on this because their social democrats here, for instance, there are some who voted for it, but there are many who voted against it, saying it makes no sense. it's just not a step forward, it's simply sort of digging in and saying, are we hate you russia politically, but it doesn't really lead us to a solution. and that of course, others are supporting it. and so the punishment was throughout all the political groups. he really split down the middle on this. barbara, thanks so much our correspond barbara visual there in strossberg l

ukrainian officials say a russian strike on the maternity ward has killed a new born baby in ukraine, southern zap, parisha region. overnight. rescuers managed to pull survivors, including the child's mother. from the rubble. resident promote amused lensky accused russia of inflicting terror and murder on ukraine in the wake of the attack . just the latest rush and strike on a healthcare facility world health organization has recorded more than 700 since the start of the war. many hospitals are facing blackouts to, as russia continues to hammer, we cranes energy infrastructure was our fall. d w as yon phillips schultz is in keith and gave us this update on the attack a short while ago. local officials say the strike happens is just about 10 kilometers outside the city of support isha. from what we know right now, a one newborn baby, a 2 day old baby was killed and several people, including some doctors were injured. we also hear reports about another attack on

a small health facility in the north east of the country. of course we have seen this over and over during the war that health facilities have become targets. usually it's not direct artillery fire or, or miss. i'll fire her. but rather the power outages that are dangerous for all those facilities. just like all other services in the country, a hospitals and clinics are heavily affected by the critical paula situation at the moment. so some bigger hospitals have generated buds. a smaller facilities, especially in rural areas. they severely affected. well, as you pointed out, their young fellow, russia has been targeting ukraine's energy infrastructure with the extensive miss allen drone attacks. the head of ukraine's national power grid now describes the damage as colossal. how is ukraine coping with this?

many solutions have been discussed in recent days from saving more energy to asking people to leave the country during winter time. what the government is doing right now is so they try to set up what they call points of in of instability. those are centers where people can go during power outages and website is already online, where residents can find information where those centers are located. they can accommodate up to 500 people and so the residents get free services. they're free. paula free water is free internet even free, a basic medical aids, and it's not sure yet when these are sent us will start operating bud to probably a very soon on philip. thank you so much. our correspondent john phillips sholtes there in the ukrainian capital. keith with winter approaching large parts of

ukraine are facing power outages. many people are expected to leave their homes and seek shelter abroad. germany is among the countries expecting more ukrainian refugees, the city berlin has already taken in nearly $90000.00 refugees from ukraine this year. is working on more accommodation, including huge, temporary temp facilities at a former airport. one church community in berlin is also doing what it can it was supposed to be emergency accommodation, but for around 30 ukrainian refugees. this is home now. the community hall of the marcus congregation in berlin. the church pays for the refugees, stay here. finding a permanent apartment in berlin is almost impossible, unnatural. raska and her 8 year old daughter, anastasio, found a room for a few months now. they had to come back. they say that dormitory almost feels like home on the fled with her 2 children from odessa back in march. william bell is

good. um yeah, i was so scared when people in ukraine said you need to leave save your children. but as of i was so scared to go to a foreign country where i don't know the language of the people the mentality. but here we've been treated so warmly. the volunteers here have been so dedicated to helping the ukrainian refugees that the church has employed. some of them to sort through donations and groceries and help translate several are originally from russia. but here it's support in hard times that counts rather than national boundaries. and the volunteers expect a tough winter the uncover to teton his officers presume we have space for 80 people here. 0400 in case of a crisis. right. i think we're ready. i will give o old to help these people on take them in. definitely of him for of info with winter setting in berlin's government is in a race against time. for example,

at this former airport, currently new arrivals from ukraine register and live here temporarily before they can be moved on within berlin or to other german cities. to heated tents at the old airport house, $400.00 people each, but they're almost full. by the end of the year, the city plans to set up more permanent housing for an additional $10000.00 refugees. ones at c list as thus differ val gordon is where people stay in this temporary housing to be short of him so that we can offer people a place to move on to my off. i love the menton unbeaten can will stand on not hanging on wednesdays. but at the moment, people have been arriving faster than we can create places for them. eva shuffled, couldn't come back at the marcus church community. one ukrainian family has been able to move into a permanent separate apartment after months in a tiny room with 2 infants. their mother, eula is relieved, but feeling fully at home can be hard. many of the families, relatives are still in ukraine. the damage, or one of them's dues,

much as we are living here in peace and quiet in a wal nice place and they are there with us. are we still feel like we are somehow in limbo, but i am trying to live in the current reality. i'm living here with the kids. i have to crate a comfortable life for them. what lasers with the war dragging on and winter i head eulley as family is lucky. even now. hundreds of ukrainians are stuck in a rival centers in berlin, hoping for a more permanent home as we just saw, the demand for a refugee accommodation in germany already outstrips with many local authorities can supply. on tuesday german chancellor, ola shoulds discussed the issue with un high commissioner for refugees. built grandy dw corresponded taurus ferro met grande afterwards and asked him how germany could better help ukrainian refugees in the long term. i think the fundamentals of

the ukrainian welcome. let's call it like this. in europe, have been good this time to temporary protection. the unity of europe in dealing with this matter have greatly help making this, sir. welcome more sustainable, and making public opinion remain quite positive in respect of ukrainian equity. still, we should not underestimate that a very protracted welcome is quite, the responsibility is quite a burden and we must do whatever is possible to try and avoid burdening communities and the burden younger states. with this big responsibility for a long period of time. how do you react to criticism that had been leveled here in europe and weeks and weeks in recent months that europe has shown in a way, double standards when it comes to helping ukrainian refugees on the one hand,

and helping refugees from other nationalities on the other i just had the discussion with the chancellor and we both recalled how actually in 2015, 16. granted, there was criticism, there were pressures, but syrian refugees, for example, were hosted and integrated in german society quite efficiently. so there is a tradition of solidarity and welcome in many european countries, which we should not forget about. having said this, of course, each population is different. we have to accept that it's probably easier to absorb a large number of ukrainian refugees that are vast ukrainian networks in europe that have been very helpful. there is a lot of sympathy for the victims of a war that is next door that everybody can appreciate the, the dangers off. but i always say that welcoming those in distress should

not be defeated by how easy it is. but by the fact that they are in distress, do you think too much attention is being given here in europe, in the west, to the crisis in ukraine and by contrast to little attention to crises happening in other parts of the world. the question is not to give less attention to the ukraine response because we have other crisis is to give that level of attention, which is very important if he says major humanitarian crisis, but not to decrease the attention given to other places. so instead of a pension, 100, we might have to give offense from 150 so that every situation gets in that the quick response because the risk is there, that one crisis divert resources from other crisis catch up on some other stories making headlines around the world today, greek authorities have rescued hundreds of migrants crammed on to

a rusty fishing boat in the mediterranean. the vessel was heading for italy when it sent a distress signal in heavy winds, reese's migration ministers asking you to resettle the migrants in other member states. and the u. k. supreme court has ruled at scotland does not have the legal power to hold a new referendum on independence without british government support. it's a blow to the scottish independence movement, which lost a 2014 referendum by a 10 percent margin. now to jerusalem were a 16 year old student has been killed in at least 14 people injured, following explosions. a to bus stops is real, security minister has described the explosions as attacks the militant palestinian group. hamas raised the blast as a special operation, but stopped short of claiming responsibility. the 2 explosions happened half an hour apart. at 2 bus stops,

a short distance from each other. several people have sustained, serious injury. or d. w, corresponded in jerusalem. rebecca ritters has more. as you say, these are fast attacks. these 2 are connected with places saying they believe it to be connected. bass attacks are bad, the bus stops rather happened this morning, just a little after p cow. as you mentioned, this several casualties were talking about 18 people injured. one person has been confirmed to have died and that person and has been identified as a 16 year old canadian shiva students studying hair, adding a shiva here in jerusalem. the initial finding show that these explosive devices were placed at these bus stops, that they likely had nails and marbles inside the packages that were placed inside bags at the bus stations to try and cause maximize effect. police is saying that it's most likely fertilize a bomb,

signifying that they probably have come and were made domestically here. now, this is of course something that security services and people here in jerusalem haven't seen for some time. this is a significant attack attacks like this have been very rare since the end of the intifada. some 2 decades ago. we have say more lone wolf attacks, stabbings, shootings, ramming that kind of thing. where it usually, you know, the death toll is quite low and the attacker is then neutralized to use the police parlance. but this of course is a significant development and police here are talking about a for prospective cell. they are actually looking for several militants, they believe it's coordinated and are calling this a terror attack. 3 suspects have been detained so far and police are sweeping, the city are all trapped. public transport has been stopped. boss are being inspected and sniffer dogs are out in the city. ok, so you say that there are suspects are already entrusted? he has anyone claimed responsibility rebecca?

no it is they no claim of responsibility yet. terry, as you mentioned, hamas dad did praise these attacks the is, is law mc g had have also come out in praise of these attacks. but no group has yet claimed responsibility. as i mentioned, police do believe though that is a coordinated attack as opposed to align wolf attack. and they are investigating perspectives cell here, you know, that they're, that they're investigating that. i, it's it yet as a significant attack, as i mentioned, you know, very few. thus, attacks like this have been taking place at the end of the intifada. and this has all the hallmarks though, all those tax attacks that we saw during that time in the big question here. terry, today is whether or not this is the beginning of a new wave of terrorism. of course, we are waiting for the new government to be out formed. we are expecting that in the next day or 2 and it will be the country's most right. when government attentions here in the country very hi, rebecca,

thank you so much. our correspondent rebecca ritter's, in jerusalem. indonesians have begun burying their dead after a devastating earthquake that killed more than $270.00 people. so authorities say the search for dozens of people still missing will continue for another 3 days. the quake happened on monday during the day. the time when many children were in class . the earthquake has turned to school building in the city of january into rapid students flight as the building came down. but some didn't make it. this family is grieving the loss of that it to, to where the daughter vida really out there when i saw her from the she i left. i couldn't handle it, but i'm not seeing my daughter's condition. her body and face all had injuries in a nearby boating school student. eli 14 shows the damage caused by the earthquake here

and other students that forgot just his life while trying to fix his friend. one other kid that a lot of my, i feel really sad, love him well, even though my house and my school are damaged, we can repair them. but if you lose a friend, you can't get them back. i feel guilty to zillow because parents and family that difficult teacher is also morning. i screwed that the and their parents trusted us to take care of them. i should have protected them. it's been very hard for me. i don't know what i could have done. chancia is one of the worst affected areas, the destruction there we take time to recover from and for now rescuers. and while india continue the relief efforts for people grappling with loss and tragedy. dw correspondence, sharon soon long has been reporting from the quake. so here she finds an instance

of neighbors helping one another in the wake of disaster. but i am standing next to an emergency kitchen located in a say, mary asked evacuation tend to, we're also set up. it's in the restaurant in the district of to goodness, where it's located near to the center of the quake that happened on monday. and as you can see, these mothers, they are preparing food, the dates, mentors of egg noodle. and also there, there's catch chicken. and this will be distributed on not only to this evacuation spot but also to other areas, and it will accommodate around $300.00 families or around $600.00 people. so during this time of crisis i'm, i can see sadness, panic, a disappointment. but at the same time, i can also see hope and strength and the way they work together it all day up comfort each other during this time of uncertainty is amazing. an yeah,

what's plan for them? and they still don't know because they lost their homes. it's destroyed by it, they just hope that the quake would eventually stop at all and everything can return to normal. d, w. sure. and similarly, reporting their from the quick. so in indonesia ah bell to the men's soccer world cup and cut her hand. 2018 runners of croatia endured a frustrating store to this year's tournament. they were held to a goal is drawl by morocco. croatia had the best of chances in the game with store player luca mode rich among those coming close. but morocco stood firm for a valuable point. germany kick off their world cup campaign against japan shortly, but they must do so without one of their biggest names. coach hands,

he played confirmed by munich star leroy son. a will miss the game because of a knee injury. like said the team were hopeful that sunny would return for the game against spain on sunday. well, germany will be looking to get their world campaign off to a good start after their disastrous, early exit in russia 4 years ago. but the build up to the match has been dominated by you turn on the decision to wear a one love arm band in supportive l g b t q writes that came after threats of sporting sanctions by faithful footballs, governing body, england, wales, and germany with 3 of the 7 european national teams, he wanted to set an example for tolerance, an inclusion with a rainbow themed arm band and the statement one love. people saw things differently . one not expressly banning the arm bands, fee for st referees which sanctioned players. he wore them with a yellow card or dimension is,

was this with listener to y'all on this topic says the team is very unhappy as well and shot that something like this is not allowed was and hunt's, because it is just a sign for human rights. and diversity for, and they are also the values that we as a team, lives and represented for 3, not leaving for toys, fifo to day ban to statement, and fremont with diversity and human rights. these are values to which it commits itself in its own state. changed our talk is was more than frustrating from our point of view. i was on sluggish termites was 3 runs. kiefer got their way and the evidence was on the arm of england. captain harry kane, it appears that no european nation wants to risk a yellow cart to make a political statement. germany is captain manuel noah looks to be among those who will wear that no discrimination or ban provided by fever. earlier our sports correspondent jonathan harding told us how germany has been responding

to the dispute. well, i think initially, after the disappointment, not pushing back against the decision, germany's response has been quite strong. german f a precedent by knowing the upset that people show of power was unprecedented, which i think is quite strong language in the situation. and since then, germany have tried their best to sort of re gain some face from, from people watching on that have been some consequences raised. one of their biggest sponsors has withdrawn their sponsorship of the day b premier, surely as a result of the situation, there are reports that they've been looking to su, fee for as a result of the decision. so it's definitely an ongoing conversation. and basically in a situation that continues to develop, i'm curious to see how it will continue over the rest of the toner. and i think it will be a talking point for the rest of the tournament. and i think it would definitely be a point of discussion between but knowing of on german interior minister, nancy phase later on when the to meet here in you're watching the w news. just
