johnny, our services to be our guest at frankfurt airport city, managed by from board lou. ah ah. does the states we're near his line from berlin? dozens of restaurants, soldiers killed in one of the deadliest known strikes of the war. in ukraine. the kremlin confirmed the attack on barracks and russian occupying eastern ukraine. keith says it's forces launched, a missile strike. also coming up the world health organization homestead,

a clear and, and to the cove at $900.00 pandemic this year. despite the sharp rise of infections in china, and brazil says good bye to football legend play striker, his body is lying and his home town stadium. thousands of fans are paying their respects before his funeral. ah, i'm the cough really shower viewers on p b. s and the united states and all around the world. welcome russia's defense ministry has confirmed that 63 of its soldiers have been killed in one of the deadliest known attacks of the war. and ukraine. ukrainian missiles struck in a rush, unoccupied area of the eastern, done and screeching on new year's eve. this footage shows the aftermath of the strike on a barracks, housing russian troops, ukraine's defense forces said they want to strike in

a rear admission. the kremlin confirmed the debts. russian media have sharply criticized the senior officers involved dw corresponding roman con, to rank o, as in cave. he told us earlier what he knew about the new year's attack in mackie car. well there are still not so many details there. ukrainian central command mentioned that in, in it's a daily bulletin in the evening saying that some 10 russian vehicles, military vehicles were destroyed or damaged but are saying that the casualties number of casualties it is still unknown before the ukrainian. i'm forced to said that up to 400 russian soldiers have been killed. and the russians are saying only $63.00. so there is a huge gap between those figures. and, and what is striking is they very harsh criticism of the no russian, a pro r, proc, pro government or bloggers and pro government commentators in social media. and

this reminds of the situation in september when the ukrainians. i started a counter offensive in the region of hockey, which was absolutely unexpected for the russians and could regain territory. so on the level of criticism, i'm of the russian military officials who decided and who decided to let those soldiers be accumulated in one place and then be killed. and it is, it is very striking and am some here. and keith also expect now probably a russian retaliation because there were similar incidents in the past. and as the situation is, is still very dynamic here in kiff. yeah. as you talked about that, that discrepancy between the numbers that are being given by the russian defense ministry and the ukrainian force as it is, whatever that number be. the biggest loss of life in a single event that the kremlin is admitted into how is this being received by the ukraine indian absolutely. so it reminds erm.

erm or it could be or it, it is comparable in some, in some opinions, a to, to a thinking, a big russian ship like that. a mosque ra flagship. on the other hand, the ukranian officials, her arm appear to be down playing. it may be to prevent her further escalation. i'm because it is, it is, it looks like a really big thing, probably much more dad than the russian officials are, are telling the public and am on the other hand, are the ukrainian social networks. of course are rejoicing they are, they are happy because on that night, a russia assert was, was continued to strike ukrainian territory including the capital key of and the night and the night after that as well. so russia is putting more pressure on ukraine and so, so there was joy on the ukrainian side to show that a russians are also suffering. and the grain is just not just taking those russian

strikes and doing nothing. because as i've said in the couple of days before that the russia was putting more and more pressure on the ukranian civilian inside of infrastructure. yeah. and among several other parts of the country, keith has again come under intense russian attack was the situation now at the moment as we speak, it is relatively calm during the day. it was a warm day about 10 degrees and plus centigrade. and a there was a mixture, you know, of a, a resilience, a kind of a war situation as usual. so people were seemed, at least partially relaxed on the street armed is walking by expecting they are to dr. christmas in a few days. but on the other hand, am during the evening and as the night began, now there is growing tension. there is an expectation of a further ration to tag by drones, iranian drones. and the key of is obviously the most valuable target. so

there is this grove intention of what could happen at night, and in the coming days, w correspond enrolling country and can keep many things, and stay safe for months now, russia has focused on back not in the eastern don bass region. the city has seen some of the most intense fighting of the war that's been going on for 10 months. now. these images from the ukranian national guard show the results of the russian on slot, went to the fighting is old fashioned trench warfare. a frontline often barely moves at all. shelling is causing heavy losses on both sides as soldiers are pinned down in known locations, medics do everything they can to save lice. d w max sunday, joined and evacuation team on the eastern front. sheeting deaf at high speed. when taking the injured from ukrainian front lines on every sick and counts

the glare has those could tell me when you put your foot down, andrey, i'm flying around, back here. years will so new they call her call. it means little one. she isn't told, but few can match her combat medic experience. she's working on a soldier who's vehicle was involved in an explosion because like, was this a ricochet. though we hid among the driver through me to the left and i saw everything he was thrown over the top. i had a plugs in under helmerson. i hit my head and i got hit in the chest. oh hello sir. oh, the soldier will most likely fully recover. his driver is dead. his lunch at this and this is for a little while until so we have some other things to take care of it. do you have

children? why do we leave the 2? 0, and then the set in must be 3 more. he might be in an ambulance on the way to hospital, but his mind is still on the front collision with them. everyone thought that we will break, but in fact we stand and will continue to stand all these rates it only angus is more and makes every one stronger. it's been a grim day. wouldn't those are just give them to day and very difficult day. you get the enemy, the russian aggressor will not come down here, but it was unless he sees the advantages on the al site and fights harder and harder. usa. however, i am desperate because today which unfortunately we had 20. but last 3 of the the live is it isn't the rights of the of the more

oh, finding the strength to face what is coming out of the bus? what area? oh, for some of the hospitallers voluntary combat, medics. faith is part of the answer. clahar converted to islam while working with muslim volunteers in the field. after hostilities began in 2014, she says she only fears god, but the job takes its talk. that she a bachelor, what i have seen includes deaths and civil. lemme opened heads and stomachs is i put a barrier in front of me so to speak and wasn't there, he is wounded of what i work with him, but silly and if i give up love and how will that help in the me almost. so i hold on to filtering them yet i have 2 nephews at home when i'm exhausted here, bailey, on my feet, and then i have a rotation though. i go home and seeing these nephews and other children fixes everything that can be fixed. give us the new one as

military hardware from the start olaf schultz? his answer has been consistent. as the soda sierra community vari, trying to supply weapons are helpful and can be used, found that we have done that in the past. and we will continue to do that to the success of the ukrainian army, show that we have supplied effective weapons, anti tank weapons, anti aircraft weapons, and a lot of ammunition, few monotone elders foster, too good. so far, germany has delivered around 2000000000 euros worth of military equipment. that's only a 10th of the amount committed by the united states. but it is the largest e u contribution among the army sent by berlin iris t long range air defense systems whose value is increased given russia's concentration on air strikes. germany has also st keyed battlefield weapons like mars t rocket launchers and panza help it's

a 2000 self propelled how it says in both cases, a lack of spare thoughts is cause delays when those systems needed repair. but they have been effective and more have been promised. what ukraine really warms, though, is state of the art heavy tanks like the left to these they say would help when the ground for the german government has so far, refused, pointing out that other nato countries also not provided the most modern tanks. instead, berlin has delivered leopards to nato allies like the supply to check forces in december, part of an exchange deal under which the check sent. soviet designed t 72 tanks to ukraine. evidence, according to the chancellor, that germany is doing its bit give minds. together with the friends and partners, we have resolutely supported ukraine with money, humanitarian agents, and also with a weapons ego. we will continue that support for as long as it is needed. the us

has now agreed to send ukraine patriot defense systems. some of its most advanced weapons, the german government has offered its patriots to nato member poland, but so far says it cannot spare any for deployment in ukraine. meanwhile, keith continues to ask the west for more of those powerful weapons, much of what it has seems unlikely to make the decisive difference in this war. a former poet benedict is lying and state and the vatican. tens of thousands of warners are expected to pay their final respects before benedict burial. later this week, it will be the 1st people funeral and nearly 2 decades. for 3 days, mourners will have the chance to say good bye to port benedict, italian prime minister, georgia maloney among the 1st to do so. the somber mood inside saint peter's
