ukrainian military and civilian leaders war the kremlin is preparing for a new wide scale offensive as early as january ukrainian infrastructure is coming under almost daily. russian bombardments this among the latest attacks with rockets severely damaging a warehouse in the northeastern city of hawk eve, prompting the city mer to urge residence to stay in shelters. investigators and wall crime prosecutors on site soon after to inspect damage and collect evidence procedures used. also, russia conduct strikes on civilian infrastructure, as you see, as opposed to the warehouse was completely empty. there was no connection to the military whatsoever. not goes on. there is called the maya in southern ukraine and the liberated city of her son, emergency teams do their best to tackle a fire after more shelling, according to officials here, the city is now completely without power. for those who remain life is

a daily struggle. after nearly 10 months of war, the un high commissioner for human rights is now wanting that more strikes could lead to a further serious deterioration in the humanitarian situation. me so strikes on civilian infrastructure, including energy facilities and hydro electric power stations are exposing millions of civilians, especially persons in situations of vulnerability to extreme hardship. during the winter months. over $10000000.00 consumers are facing cuts in electricity, and millions are cut off from a regular supply of water. and russia has rejected a proposal of a christmas truce with pro moscow officials in the occupied city of don't ex, blaming ukraine for this attack. an apartment building and a hospital among the buildings damaged. in the shelling a seni,

a ukrainian military general now says russia is digging in for a long war in ukraine and still wants to conquer the entire country. grandma should only the kremlin, realizes that in the short term, it's impossible to achieve victory in the war. no more, lou, lou, thus it's seeking to turn the conflict into a prolonged armed confrontation aimed at exhausting ukraine and our partners later . there were now concerns that any new russian assault could come from neighboring bellow roofs, his armed forces continue to hold combat readiness drills close to its border with ukraine. la correspondent nick connelly was in cave as those missiles struck. welcome nick. what sort of day is it bane were different sounds. it started with a lot of bangs here in key or something we hadn't had quite some time out. seemingly . that was the air defense system here working,

but pretty close to us in the center of give. this is a real sign that russia still has many more cruise missiles and other options disposal than ukraine would want. we've heard from the grain or thirty's, they say they were able to deal with, were able to shoot down about 3 quarters and missiles that were launched against ukraine fe 60 out of 76. but it does seem especially outside of care of where the defense are. better, lots of strategic targets been hit, lots of power outages here in central kia pistol. quite a bit of power. you might be able to see some lights on behind me, but holds weights of care of all without power, without water. and is a pretty grim evening here in give at a time where it had seemed like these attacks were kind of fighting down why let's, let's take a closer look at that. because as you say now, even more of the countries you and critical infrastructure has been taken out of action. that's still the case. i mean, the pictures are always a bit difficult to kind of get a handle on 1st showers. there also normally a few detailed reports from the cranial thirty's. they're kind of keen to not give

the russians too much my idea of what they've actually achieved to not going to give them ideas about what's to continue attacking. but as ever, they've been attacking heating plants, and that's really crucial. this is the kind of centralized teaching system where water is pumped around cities. so if that gets destroyed, the warm water is released and then it freezes. that basically means the whole system needs to be built again from scratch. so lots of worries there that, that could be put out of action. power is easier to kind of re bill, but of the question of spare parts. lots of spare parts coming in from foreign countries now as, as busy, nothing available on the open market and a sense that yeah, for now ukraine keeps all scrambling to rebuild within a couple of days each time. some kind of a mighty returns. but the russians seem really to be waiting for that in place like kennesaw, they waited for a couple weeks until people had power again and then destroyed everything again. so i'm pretty desperate kind of times here, but people are for now carrying on and not demanding any kind of change, of course. and that is, and this, of course, is part of russia's tactic of, tried to grind down the ukrainian population by attacking the civilian

infrastructure. as winter clothes is, it is, there's this russian strategy working well for now, your credit is still working and there's going to extraordinary levels of residence in the system when they destroy one rail line. there's often a 2nd or 3rd, maybe a slower line, but the train's get re routed and people arrive the destination bit later. logistics still working, still send a packet in care of and it'll be either in fact give or leave the next day. incredibly, i think there's a lot of optimism about more western air defenses coming the u. s. a patriot missiles. but basically, the fact is, there just aren't enough munitions for the systems anywhere in the world. even in most western european countries to keep on dealing with the kind of threat on the scale, ukraine is and is increasingly took care of cry needing to just go and take the fight to those russian air drums. make it more difficult for us. a lot of these attacks and also to make sure the sections really are being enforced and russia doesn't get the western electronics, the western chips that it needs to make movies. missiles,

thank you for calling key. now to iran, which is condemned the european union for imposing new sanctions over to crown's response to anti government protests b e u announced measures targeting the countries state broadcast its army chief revolutionary guard commanders and a cleric. a protest of swept the country since the death on september, 16th of a young, radiant kurdish woman in police custody courts in iran have sentenced 11 people to death in connection with the protest. the 1st 2 people were executed in the past week on the 18000 to people have been arrested, including, including close members of the family, of ayatollah and i. e is nice is one of the supreme leaders shop is critics. ah, it's difficult to get a full picture of life any right now, but when a video is published, the eyes of the world are on it. not since the islamic revolution have the iranian

people made their voices heard so loud and clearly and at such great risk to their lives. ah, hawkins, i'm on on with among the fiercest critics of the supreme lead his own niece. no more, very dame without cammie has spoken out harshly against her uncle, and called on foreign governments to cut all ties with terror on one day she missed the 4. draw a s on her yos. are they that cannot m o 3 people be with us? and support us, they that you government stop supporting this murderous and child killing regime on dangerous words in the islamic republic, or whether she was arrested for he but the army very day. more at cammie is currently in jail and iran, where according to her lawyer, she'll spend the next 3 years opposition to the supreme leader runs in the family. faraday mode at cammies late father was a prominent critic of the iranian regime. her brother is an activist living in

excel and france. this bounce of the i a t i s family doesn't want anything to deal with as hard line religious policies or his crack down on descent. the unrest in iran has been going on for 3 months, and the rate on the streets has only increased in this video. people in tehran can be heard chanting, i'll kill, who ever killed my brother and death to the dictator after a man was executed for his role and the protest. oh, it's tiny glimpses into iranian life like this one that show you that the ultimate determined isn't enough to silence the iranian people. all the ayatollahs own family with her denisa iran supreme leader condemning her uncle's government. a brother has been just as vocal from france. my mood, moran carnie, is an anti regime activist, and had lived in paris for more than 20 years. he was responsible for publishing

his sister's that video message. alma moved american, he sat down for an exclusive interview with the w's farsi department and told us why he feels the last 3 months of protests have been so important. monday we're going to have been an inherited out of a youth of iran. rev now realised all you that what this regime said about the former regime as a mom was a lie it or what is that? my mom jojo holdeski for, they have told many lies listen, and now they are lying about their daily routines. elena need on, along with her about the economy, she resumed, and were there as you miss about everything, rudy. and of course, about political issues since then we're the, i had to lose my leave with this. they kill people in the street, is though they're more than i mean, and then they say those people had a stroke and died on her deductible. nicholson, yahoo! this one signature than moda. let's pick this up with a gill this a high. so he be, who's a journalist who specializes in the middle east affairs, a welcome to the w,

and when out 3 months into these protests at any round, which seemed to be persisting, despite those 2 executions, what do you think it is about these protests or perhaps about the current leadership. that means this repressive government has not quashed these demonstrations yet. we just heard a lot of reasons why people really are not backing down why people despite the brutality of susie and especially now with the executions. and let's not forget, they already killed at least 500 people in the past 3 months. and it's just the level of oppression country with the world a scene right now for the 1st time. hopefully that that brings people not to stop. we just got videos today from the down system, the system where people are attending in the street for each person that you kill is going to be a 1000 people behind. and so this is the spirit of the people because what me and

he would have been hearing for more than 2 months now. it's the moment that we stop, they're gonna kill us only going to get us. because then the attention world is not going to be there anymore. and so they kind of almost have to go on protesting. and then from outside we tend to, to view the iranian regime is some sort of a monolithic object. but there clearly are factions within the government. i, i wonder, are there factions there that are siding with protesters or perhaps even see the present turmoil as an opportunity? this is very, very difficult to see because this was him, has had 44 years of practice of sticking together and of a lot of propaganda. so what we've seen in home in his family that sort of family has been anti oppression for a long time. this is not something that came up in this protests, so i am sure i am very sure that there are people in this machine already thinking this is wrong. what we're doing and this level of oppression that we're exerting on

people, is, is something they don't want to have anything to do with. but it is a system of dependence. so these people within the government depend on the regime, keep it to keep functioning for their money for their wealth, for the right health for their life. so it is harder for them to actually display got into toronto. i'm, we're with, from the international community. we've seen the v, a expected condemnations and, and sanctions, but i wonder if you think there might have been more of response, a bigger response had. so i had that the war in ukraine not happened and, and perhaps an international attention, a focused elsewhere i don't think it has anything to do with attention. and we could definitely see way more, some more response, much bigger and strong response. and we've been seeing. and we have seen what the, the west is capable of doing when it comes to russia. we've had, i think,

8 round of sanctions, or even more. and they have even compensated yachts, yachts all around the world, from oligarchy. and we have not seen that response in iran, and i think that was what reason for this is that a lot of governments do not believe that this will be the end of the regime. so they are very hesitant to actually do something that clearly puts them on the side of the protesters. and we have yet to see that that happens. but it is really necessary because the regime will fall at some point. we don't know how long it's gonna take, but it, the governments are in the west would be on the right side here. that's a fascinating analysis and we thank you for it to give us a hey, hey, be a journalist who specializing in the middle east affairs. thank you so much. thank you. now to malaysia by nearly 20 people including several children, have died following a landslide. it tore through a campsite some 50 kilometers north of the capitol kuala lumper. officials say the com site was operating without a license, rescuers or racing to find potential survivors as more than

a dozen people are still missing. again, they were woken by war. many mister for thunder. moments later, a torrent of rocks and mud ripped through their tents, leaping in albany. yeah. what a huge voice they just came up again. so the minute you guys came in with your friends and got them. okay, me so i see the vendor besides the legal fees, we're not able to do anything. disaster struck in the middle of the night. dirt tumbling from road, some 30 meters above the site. this popular hilltop barrier cherished for its natural beauty. now a muddy waste lead. nearly $100.00 people were sleeping at the camp site while many made it out alive. over dustin did not. 2 of the dead believe to be a mother and her daughter were fell locked in an embrace.

hundreds of rescuers are coming through the mud for those still missing. for now, it's unclear what trick it the landslide, but early finding suggest a tragedy could have been avoided. upon verification be found at the camping site, the campsite is operating. be that license if found guilty, the camp operator could face up to 3 years in prison. i. japan has on val plans for it's a biggest military build up since world war 2. the government says it will double defense spending will bring it up to the nato. stand for 2 percent of g. d. p. countries move away from a self defense only stands comes as it's 60 counter regional threads. plants require long range missiles capable of striking china, using separate times undermine the bilateral relations. on the cheater pseudo oka is an associate professor in policy management at carol

university in tokyo. welcome to d w. let's. let's start with this announcement and it's significant. this is a big deal. do you think? yes, it's really a big deal. so this is japan's sort of a tight a vendor. so the constituting a huge change. and why, why is it such a big deal directly to drivers behind it? one is actually the warning crane, so they, we had to realize that this sort of thing could happen. so in europe and then it could happen in asia as well. so the and 2nd day, of course, it is very much about china and detention over taiwan. so the, now the public, ordinary people include it, is very one more concern about security situation. someone in japan. ok. so at the public responses, it's quite interesting because of course the japan has had best this past risk constitution since the end of the, the war. and we've seen in the last year or so. politicians turning away from that,

are they carrying the population with you mean, is it on the constitutional on the, on the constitution and taking a more active stance. the i think the situation is that the one more people understand that we need to respond to the change in security environment. so, and in japan. but so we haven't been quite responded to the, for example, the rise of china, increasing defense. but in china or north korea's nissan development. but finally we are nervous. right. and it's, it's interesting of that for me. ok, shita has said that this bill be significant. builder does square with what he called and exclusively defense orientated a policy. but you know, at an exclusively defense orientated policy does not square with a bag. acquiring missiles that have arranged that he's far enough to reach china.

that doesn't sound like defense. yeah. yeah. idea of a fighting strike at the dior counter strike capability has be really controversial . in the japanese domestic politics. but the, the, the conclusion of the national security strategy is that having 8th come to strike capability. it's still part of defense. because what we're thinking of is that if there is that back to japan, then in order to in order to respond to that, we need to attack where the attacks originate. so in that sense, it's part of a defense. that's what we are under and is that argument persuading people the yes or no? because still this, this is really controversial. and also the, the e. c of crystal. but it's also compressor where to find such money. so whether it is time or just to borrow money. so this is, has been really consumers. so is,

is therefore, then given the control of it and again, given the questions around financing, do we take it that this is a and deal, or is it still subjects to discussions and gratifications when it comes to the overall defense budget over the next 5 years it's a done deal, so there is no ann is now committed to, to moving in this direction. yes. so it's gotta work out now how to pay for becoming close to 2 percent of g. d. p like need to standard. but so where to find money does, it's still a open question. ok that's, that's very clear. and we thank you for coming in and showing your expertise to work with us so much it out. so ok, thank you so like a chaos, a total devastation, lots of dead fish. that's i want gas that be reticent blue hotel in central berlin . describe the situation after a huge aquarium in the hotel lobby burst early this morning and some 300 guests

were evacuated from the hotel. 2 people were injured by flying glass and around 1500 tropical fish were killed because of incidence is under investigation. death giant equilibrium in a hotel with home to around 1500 tropical fish and a popular destination among tourists. the guests at the hotel walk up friday morning to the found of a loud bank that beloved graham had chatted. it sounded almost like a firewall, but the hotel actually shook inside. ugh, i, i could describe it as a and i jolted out of bed and turned around and i didn't see any movements. i didn't know what that was going on. the thank with 1000000 liter of water, shot to quickly nothing up during the campus for

a large cylindrical tank and the building behind to me burst lloyd to plus there was a mass of water leakage buffer which also caused damage to the building. didn't avoid the pressure and deputy from the building flying into the street rescue teams arrived and hotel guests were evacuated. enzo often we heard a loud bang at about 5 or 6, but didn't think anything of it at the time when done it a little while later we got out of the room and looked down. oh, my good. all the elevators went down and the lobby was completely destroyed due to the it prep leak, a large number of fish couldn't be saved the elevator right, with views of the damp. if now only amenity i corresponded julius, our deli is on the scene in central berlin. welcome,

julia. what's the latest? well, as you can see, probably behind me the main street that goes in front of the hotel, that house the building where this big aquarium was, is still close. rescue force is fire fighter policeman are still here. and currently building a safety exports are still looking into the building and trying to assess whether there has been any damage done to the structures of the building from the huge amount of water that came spilling out of this big aquarium. and we've heard from the security forces that the ground floor of the building couldn't initially be accessed by rescuers because of the amount of debris. so they had to use a search and rescue dogs to make sure that there weren't any people still there. and we've heard from the mayor of berlin that the main aquarium that is

next to the, the big tank that burst there are still fish in there. and this mean aquarium is having a lack of electricity because of the bursting of this tank that occurred. and that, thanks to generators, they are now taking care of the fish that are still in the aquarium that are still alive, even though those around $1500.00 fish that were in the tank that burst were unfortunately all dead. a no word on what to call a fish tank to exploit because it's free, but for some time doesn't yes. so authorities, but also the owners of the building ng the tank have said that it is still unclear what caused the tank to burst. we've heard from a police sources that the do not think that it was deliberate, that it was an attack or any kind of gesture like that that caused the tank to

explode. but certainly, as the mayor of berlin also say within this big disaster, we also got lucky because the bursting of this tank occurred very early in the morning before 6 a. m went, the building was pretty much empty on the ground floor. but this is quite a tourist attraction. it is quite popular with children, especially there is an elevator, there used to be an elevator inside this tank that would take taurus up for a 10 minute ride. and if the burst had happens later, when the area had been full of people, it could have really costs many lives, given the huge amount of water that came bursting out of this tank. thank you for that. to julia, julia found delhi, and this is dwi from bell in his reminder of our top story, this ukraine has been hit by fresh barrows and brushing as strikes, license, bombardments comes as ukrainian military leaders warn that moscow is preparing for
