from the end and you'll find much more on our website, d, w dot com. ah, me pro is not giving up hope following the devastating attack on an apartment building that killed 40 residents. the search continues to find the 29 that are still missing. under the rubble, the city is reeling after one of the deadliest single strikes a rush of bloody war. ukraine calls it a targeted attack on civilians, a war crime. but russia blames ukraine's air defenses for allegedly downing, one of its muscles over the building, followed him. is the lensky, the ukrainian president denies the accusations and condemns what he calls the russian people's cowardly. silence in the face of the attack on nichol ferla, him, berlin, and this is the day ah,

innocent civilians including children, lost their lives or were wounded. this horrific attack was, of course we are fighting for every person. the rescue operation will last as long as there he's even the slightest chance to save life. intentional attacks against civilians are those responsible for war crimes will be held to oh, also coming up. it's that time of year again, when the global elite descend on davos for the world economic forum and with it come warnings that the rich are getting richer at the expense of every one else.

the wealthiest one percent of humanity is amassing double the wealth of the 99 percent of humanity. so that means one percent is taking so much i'll come to the show. we begin the day with a political shake of an berlin's response to the war in ukraine. germany's defense minister had long been criticized as being overwhelmed by the task at hand, an unfit for the job to day after day. the speculation christina lamplight handed in her resignation, her decision follows a series of blunders that damaged her credibility. most recently, and new year's video she posted that was widely considered tone. deaf chancellor, or lof shawn says he will act quickly to appoint a successor on because this is not opposed and the government shells can afford to leave vacant for long. right now, d w chief, political correspondent, nina hasa,

has more on the challenges facing the next defense minister. well, whoever it is, it won't get much of an induction period. there's a high level meeting of defense ministers on ukraine at a gum stein military base this friday. and before that, the u. s. defense minister is going to be in belin and we'll expect to meet his counterpart. so chancellor shows would be well advised to nominate someone who is a defense expert and especially someone who's a good manager with careers mom and somebody who likes the bundis bad because the bonus bed on forces they are undergoing massive transformation, massive reform. and they do need support from the person at the helm and, and then of course those ukraine and germany's help for the ukrainian army. but chancellor shows made it clear from day one that those big decisions ultimately live with him. and that's not going to change with a new person in the job. and a new crane itself, another heart breaking reminder of the human cost of the war. over the weekend,

a russian missiles struck an apartment building in the ukrainian city of ne pro, at last count, the death toll had risen to 40 and many more still unaccounted for. emergency crews are working tirelessly to rescue survivors. residents gathered in front of the destroyed buildings hoping for news of their loved ones. the strike has been met with international condemnation, sweden, which currently holds the use rotating presidency, has condemned any intentional attack on civilians as a war crime. meanwhile, in parts of northeastern ukraine than have been liberated from russian occupiers, police are facing an uphill battle when it comes to restoring rule of law. our correspondent max sunday joined a police team near the russian border and has this report on the hardships on the job. a school caught in the crossfire. the war is creating extra problems for police. detective alex he said,

anti tank grenades from this site found their way into the wrong hands. this footage shows their operation, confiscating them from a civilian position. lou, because we knew it was mean was it just so people have changed during the war the course of the about the sure. now almost anyone can get any weapon. they want it without any trouble. it would, would it, but a school was all the boys but only of a similar case. so you had a tragic end to make each other but a holistic has broken the width of most of that time. the man gave the military almost all the weapons he had found a lot of good luck, but kept one grenade for himself, which emma no after you experienced some health problems, he wrote a farewell letter to his mother was bah, leslie, he left it with his documents alyssa, and then blew himself up at home because of some of them. alex says he and his colleagues are seeing morse with science, and they're becoming practice

a collecting evidence of new alleged crimes. as we're about to experience, we had north to the off chance area on the border with russia. we have to cross the river on foot. and so we've just been asked to turn our phones off and that's because we're moving closer to the russian water right now. the russians are known to be monitoring phone signals in the past have used them to pinpoint their targets . alex and his colleague carina, are here to investigate a strike. it's basic police work in a war zone. to take up much 60 centimeters, deep mclaughlin gathering evidence. keeping a record the owner of this field was making herself a cup of tea. when she heard the 1st impact she hit in the cellar and avoided injury. the evidence will be sent to a lab to determine what it was that hit, but the case seems clear to them. civilians were attacked. it was

a war crime. we go virtual, where you can see for yourself that except for the yard of the local civilians were gone. there is no military equipment ah, no military personnel. nicole on the monitors, not even critical infrastructure that the russians loved so much, give a them on that. if you could, i dont know thought maybe they were just aiming for a cornfield. homer at your facility self, who could holds an alarm little joke. the blast also damaged her house. you don't think he didn't. the push was in the eye dock. nobody's injured that the house is messed up. thank god, that was where i was because something went inside the house. something smashed the window and hit inside. it is full of glass. glutton bloom for the day. her living room becomes a makeshift police station. i have him to have a good neighbors make statements and shall the officers documentation. every one has losses,

which need to be recorded. the officers jurisdiction ends at the border, but they're doing what they can see. wing with all the guilty will be brought to justice. see every single one of them said the mac, it'll be unavoidable after our victory tomorrow. if we have that other. if the time comes argue with alex and his co detectives who have evidence to offer a court. ah, again, we'd love women, we haven't won the war. we haven't defeated the mafia. but this was a case battle to win and it's a heavy blow to organized crime. to day is a day of celebration for me yet. and julie, fist of in me that was italy's prime minister, george maloney, after the rest of the country's most wanted mafia boss, mateo messina, dinero, he was detained at a medical clinic in sicily were he is said to have been undergoing a medical procedure. he's alleged to be the leader of the sicilian cosa nostra

mafia and has been on the run for the last 30 years. and we can now welcome anna surgi. she's a professor of criminology at the university of essex in london. welcome miss durgy . tell us more about mister messina, dinero e, yes, met their mashanda, not even the last remaining of the bosses of the ninety's that essentially embraced or strategy that dictated and directed by former, both to the ina that led to the killing. for example, on the far corner the judge was killed together with his wife and his bodyguard. in may 1992 blown up in his car. in palermo or a blown up in his car would have bodyguards in july 1992 and several other facts. and one being throughout the valley. messina, nato was very young, then he was only 30, which is by young for both. and it was coming from your family and he was kind of

the protege of the arena. is being convicted of amount of theirs is being considered a very dangerous and ruthless man. and either rest is basically closure for italy in a way on a period that even though we can never really forget, we surely need to move on from why you know, with, with friends how was able to live in hiding for 30 years. well that's a big question, isn't it? i've actually looked like he was hiding in plain sight. he was in the clinic because he was sick and he was receiving treatment in palermo. so in cecily, it did not have a surgical operation like many people believe that he changes space and his voice look exactly as we expect that and look for. so the question is,

where was he and what did he do for years and how did he do it? it's a mixture between protection by people, very close to him, family and friends of people who are close to him because of his black male empower, miss. you know, the now is believe to hold secrets in many people, including politicians, including entrepreneurs, including nie level. people that don't want the secret to come out. surely there was probably some corruption going on for law enforcement, the different stages, but 30 year in a very long time. so clearly, another way to look at this is who gave him up eventually because one of the people that he trusted was the one that eventually led to these rest today. exactly. tell us more about the circumstances that led to him. actually then finally ending up in custody. well, the circumstances are re anticlimactic kind of circumstances in the sense that we

need an expected that was not build up to it. we didn't really know, we didn't really know what it was, even real this morning. so the police described it as an improvised operation, meaning that they received a tip on the confirm, the tip, and then they acted. which sounds finally strange for a market balls. it's been on the run for 30 years. what kind of mistake would he have made or the people around him just gave the mob essentially so that he's quite a little of speculation on the stage of what a centrally brought the police to this. and we'll need to wait to no more. because so far, we only know that eventually everyone was ready to walk this morning, basing on everything when i pick an authority from the university of essex and london, many thanks for that. thank you. ah, it's time for the global. it leads to mix and mingle in the swift ops, again,

political leaders and theos of the world's top companies are and devils this week. for the latest addition of the world economic forum, there will address the big challenges over time, a looming global recession, the war in ukraine and climate change. german chancellor off shots and the heads of the i am at the european central bank, and nato will be there though the leaders of china and the united states. well now the amount of a list are skipping. the meeting this year has many questioning the relevance of the world economic forum. and here to give us an inside look is our correspondent ben for sewland, who is in dallas, and has been getting a sense of, of the mood there been at. you've got the guest list who's there, who's not, and what does that tell us? well the coal, the chinese, a back with the, a chinese being locked out last time or locked down. rather, the russians are not invited again because of their war in ukraine. that's no

surprise. olaf schultz, the german chancellor is going to be here and will be addressing at the war and ukraine and as a huge contingent of ukrainians. officials, military leaders, soldiers, all drumming up support for more weapons and reconstruction funds. of course that reconstruction can go ahead yet, but it needs to be planned and a quick way to end this war. according to again salt berg in an interview in the hunters black daily to day. german newspaper was military support and that's piling pressure on the german chancellor will all be waiting to see what he has to say in his speech or the ukrainians. i've spoken to hear a full of confidence, and that's also represented at ukraine house, where a video installation in the window shows a live size, sister and brother walking with pride and confidence through the streets of newly liberated hassan. and when you walk past,

it feels like they're walking right next to you on the promenade here in diverse. it's a very powerful message and it is indeed a moment of many crises. what a fake and of us. well, geo political and geo economic crises are very delicate time in our modern history and one that world leaders a battling from home on many levels, all i felt is the only g 7 leader who's going to be here. but according to the world's economic forum, it's going to be a tough year. the i m f says a 3rd of the global economy is going to go into recession, half of europe, and the high debt at the moment. the high interest rates, all of these pressures, a meaning that climate change isn't addressed as the climate protesters would like

oxfam says, one solution would be a 5 percent tax on the multi millionaires and billionaires of this world that would pull $2000000000.00 people out of poverty but you've got to convince the elite here among them this year will not be one of the rich kids, ellen musk, he's licking his wounds after going into the guinness book of world of records, as losing the biggest loss of fortune in history. he pays a true tax rate according to ox, from of 3 percent. that was between 20142018. what do we pay? 50 percent in germany. so we actually have a sound bite from the head of oxfam a right here. let's have a listen and, and get back to you. but one percent is taking so much and the 99 percent in this moment of great prices are really not getting enough. so i think billionaires is paying their tax not hiding a deal. tax havens really contributing to society will make them be more of

a part of this new phase that we can all move towards. and hopefully it be in time to save our planet as well. and facility is still with us, been the forums founder set out to quote, improve the state of the world. is that still was what devils is about in its 5030 year? well, a climate protesters would disagree. they call the world economic form a world economic failure, but there are some inroads that have being made. people are talking a lot more about climate change here and trying to come up with tech solutions. and it's also very interesting to hear the colds for green or economies. but how do you do that? how do you balance that at the same time of as a cost of living crisis, or there are in roads being made as far as female participation goes in an inequality on that side. 42 percent of female speakers across the board at the conference this time round. and i'll be hosting the 1st l g p t q i dinner i'm.

i'll also be hosting a panel on the same subject on thursday. the 1st of those was held back in 2015, so there is some progress on that front as well. nicole, which is nice to see one active as i spoke to last night though, said the only thing that will make change here and of us is if there's change at the top, that's the only way of changing this beast. ah ben facility and, and i was seeing what happens at the top. thank you so much. ah, the united states government has launched a new online system for people seeking asylum at its border with mexico, from now on only those people who registered on an app and who can show they have a sponsor in the u. s. will be accepted into the asylum process. you know, we use quarterly, nancy moy and enos pulled travel to the mexican border city of reynosa. to find out

what this new policy means for thousands of migrants hoping to enter the us. the new immigration policies have created a dramatic challenge for these migrants from heidi thousands of stuck here on the mexican side of the border. trying to understand the new a pastor tries to explain, but many questions remain. lee, you works for a refugee and g o. d 2 is trying to understand what the new u. s. requirements mean for mike effie ship. well, i'm here to see what it's about because of that and how i can help. i think it's thrown up as i understand it. okay. okay. is there or maybe not bluecross your next stop is a storage place at least 3 times a week. he picks up warm clothes for the refugees. the nights are cold. this time of the leo tells us there about

10000 people in the region right now. this camp, he's greeted with joy to day, he distribute socks for the children alone. he will get with it. all i can do is help the people hen. that's all i can do in other matters. even if it's only a drop in the bucket admitted any burden i've awhile for most migrants here. figuring out how to register on the new app is the biggest problem. grady rodriguez who flat on doris has no smartphone. they will. okay. oh, with e jointly and i'm stuck in the i understand the u. s. with their new laws, that's fine metal. but here in camps like this, there are many of us who don't have money for a smartphone but, but i went to live on up grade. he is frustrated, he doesn't know what to do next. before president biden was elected,

he promised to pursue a more you main migration policy. now, in the middle of his term, there is little sign of it. quite the contrary. many fear that the new course he announced make things even worse. desperation is the prevailing mood at this table, where migrants, excess, a power supply with the developed i can't get into the up because everyone wants to get in almost get in a little balls. and the good thing berlin, mcgroon lovely, got you. i have a problem with the app is i go into it in the app, sends me emails real, but then when i, when i can open, no look. i'm in via a light number of willing to sign, and i tried to get in this morning to get an appointment this month, but i didn't understand anything. grady has lost hope. he just wants to be back home and leaves the camp for good without knowing how to pay for the trip.

in our washington bureau chief co author at this report, she joins me now in a more humane approach to migration is what the bind administration promised. now the gatekeeper is literally a machine. how does that go together? that unaware nicole, the wall trumps wall is replaced by this ab. well, you know, we have to be fair here. the situation at the border right now as it was before the new kind of law was in place. it is also not humane. it's, it's the opposite. people are on the road, some of them for years. there is no infrastructure on the mexican, a side of the border. they're waiting there that the drug cartels lead them over across the rio grande and other are kind of areas to go into the united states. so president biden is really in a dilemma he needed to change the had very situation,

but this app indeed brings very many problems for the people they are on the ground . workers walk us through the functioning of the app. how does it work, and what are the problems that people are encountering with? it may be beyond what we just on the report. right, so as great, he said many, many a migraines. they don't even have a smartphone and you need a smartphone to be able to download the apps to be able to download the app. you need a good internet connection once you have it downloaded. first of all, you really have to understand how it works. and i tried to download it myself, it's really complicated. it's not that easy. then they send you something to your email. so to make a long story short, the whole process is complicated. but once you are in the system, you can apply, you need a passport to apply, then the background check is taking place. and then on top of everything, you do need a sponsor and you do need to be able to afford

a plane ticket. so basically, that means that only those migrants to have a chance who are well off enough to afford all that. joe biden asked migrants to not just show up at the border, but rather to apply for asylum from home and, and fly in the us. that's an unrealistic scenario for many escaping hardship and poverty in the rest of the americas. will that do much to discourage the thousands of people who embark on that dangerous track each year? well, any called i put out a pretty and similar program of his venezuela. some weeks ago to kind of test it, so only people from menace willa who played applied through this ad, but have a chance to a get into the united states to get a work permit and it kind of worked so of at least that's what the biden administration says fewer people left the country knowing that they won't have any chance at all to get into the country if they have not applied for through this

ever before the end of the border. so we shall see if this really changes the mind, because as you just said, most of the migrants they don't come to the united states because they just want to have a nicer and better life. they are fleeing hunger violence, dramatic situations, deaths killings. so they have little to lose when they stay because they many of them tell us they will get killed. hell will die of hunger or diseases anyhow. so yep, it be showing it has 11, there is i will really die. we're running out of time and thank you so much and great reporting and that's our time. be sure to join us again tomorrow. thank you so much for a company with

a here's the term that everyone has heard by now. m r n a. but what exactly is it the messenger for genetic information became famous. thanks to the coven,

i t maxine. how does this technology work and what other diseases could m r n a be used to fight against tomorrow today? next on dw, in there the last primeval forest. in durham, in lapland, the land of the saw me lies an ecological treasure. but even here, the timber industry is felling more and more treat. environmentalists and the sammy are teaming up to fight back. it's a song, but they're succeeding clues. ah, in 60 minutes, d w. oh, cool with we're all ticket to go beyond the obvious
