on my shoulders, but i have to hold this weight because i'm responsible for the future of our country, for the people who are behind the bus. so guardians of truth starts february 18th on d w. ah, ah ah, this is dwi from berlin. ukraine shoots down suspected russian surveillance balloons over cave. as moscow increases its attacks in the air and on the ground is key running out of ammunition to combat russia's invasion. the last one of the president, the landscape senior advisors also on the program burying the dad after devastating

earthquakes. turkey digs mass grades for thousands. while most victims have been identified, many families are still desperately trying to find missing levels. ah, i'm fil gale. welcome to the program. authorities in ukraine, so they're shut down. most of the 6 suspected russian surveillance balloons detected in the skies over keith. the kremlin hasn't commented on the reports, but russian forces have launched a new round of miss i the tax across ukraine. craig says each repels some of those attacks, but authorities say multiple targets have been hit, including the country's largest oil refinery. what is the taps come a bit mounting fear so that ukraine could be running out of ammunition?

ego resolve is deputy head of the office of the president of ukraine. i asked him if the long awaited russian spring offensive has now begun. well, you know lisa attacks are never ending. i mean, they're starting from october last year. they had it regularly, unfortunately with a was for 2 weeks. but yesterday we had another tech in tonight across the whole country. and yes, we cannot say that this is the last that i will speculate whether the parts or lisa reverse with a plan or not. i hate to speculate about this. i would better tell you that gradient armed forces are much better prepared than that. and then in the beginning of the school going on with it to be prepared. not only have the courage, but also having a weapon to, to withstand that and then make it on comprehensive. but let's talk about that

preparation and that preparedness and the weapons because therapy comes concerns raised this week, that ukraine is consuming ammunition faster than it can be supplied. how bad is the situation? well, the situation is not drastically critical though. it is also, you know, not as good have been really the density or the fives you were talking. men are 25 years really high. and really russia has got much more ammunition and artillery systems than you gray in quantity. i'm not talking about quality because yes, we've got some high sophisticated western type a system and ammunition for instance, and we are mastering how to use them and use them very effective. but still the, the, the, the, the number is 7 is comparable. the high

then the number of responses that you can have, and it is very important. yeah, i was going to say, and now we see these, these balloons are over here. and it does look as though russia is hoping to exhaust your supply of air defense. ammunition can you afford to hit every target or do you not have to prioritize? well, definitely if you're mentioning about, mentioned in those. hm. hi, sophisticated western side air defense system. we have, we have already got and we were only operating. oh those are, we're still waiting. i mean, i'm talking about medium range of systems. definitely. we cannot use them every time because russia is combining now its efforts are when firing in this case would be great. the combined the cruise missiles with ballistic miss sauce, and those missiles with them they can buy with drones. and those johnson, besides the combined with the balloons, which i mention it. so definitely we should be smart. understand, you know, the,

the, the, the level of, i mean you should, we have, and we are smart and we are, you know, using different different devices in order to, to, to, to intersect. but look currently where intersect in about 75 to 80 percent of the, of the massage, or johnson or any other things. it could be better. it could be better provided that we had already as of now, the desired amount of their defense and, and to me, sensors. okay, so we always need more. and one of the things i want to come to is, i'm tanks because we're when ukraine for us as for heavy tanks, it was told no, you kept asking, and now they're expected to arrive towards the end of march. now cave is asking for jet, they wings for freedom, as your president call them. and again, they've been told no, you expect that answer to change in the same way. i hope you know, from the beginning of this open admission,

there were many cases when we asked and we received no like a system and then we finally started to receive them. yes, you are right. we are asked about a battle dance. we had no and the beginning, and now we have the so called dan coalition for and with 11 countries in it. and yes, we are open on the promises on the process to be delivered on the actual delivery of that to the battle. as soon as possible this same if you ask my opinion would definitely be about fighters. yes. because no listen. but as fighter jets for several reasons, not only for like a just like for for, for protection this guy. but also divided yes. could be very effective in the 2nd, let me ask about talking about a week before. so we're hoping it really was that the western coalition will sooner or later. very important. this is very important to start preparation or

pilots as of now. and that's where we also have positive news. ok, so we need everything needs to be much faster as, as germany is in decision and delay over supplying weapons. and tanks and giving permission for those tanks to be used in ukraine has that german delay cost ukrainian lives. well, you know, put in this question just to go in every delay of every country you own anywhere. but course of course, for your grade, because every mean every hour, every day, every night, they're fine with me. so they're using warranty. they're using my power with tremendous amounts it in order to kill ukrainian soldiers at the battlefield. beacon they used to be in the south, and yes, it is for citizens in larger grade because no other time there is no longer a safe place in any part of your grand be central the best and ukraine even before

you. great. so yes, no delays a possible now because yes, it's a matter of life for our country and for our people. right, so let's look at had been given the problems that we've mentioned about about logistics and ammunition and supply is ukraine ready for, for this, this renewed russian offensive. when it comes the we already moved and ready and i think this revise which is planning now. it unfortunately will take place because they are destined to make this, but it will definitely destined to fail. and it will probably might have been a huge revise, but very important that we should be prepared to come to atlanta. we had

a very good and positive dynamics for the 2nd half of last year. remember, after liberating the north, you printed was harkey, and the, and the, and the east a. it was part of significant part of south including the city or here. so. so we need to get the positive dynamics. we need to get our territories liberated each. you'll need to make a, the aim of the break and all the time you play all the right. so let's, let's look back a meant to be and about that row that you just outlined that to explain to us the world. what victory for ukraine looks like. the victory for your grain is only 11 we believe or a all the day of ukraine as of 24th of august 1991. ok, so that includes a crimea that you are secretary of state and to be blake and has worn that

a ukrainian attempts to retake a crime. it would be a red line for vladimir putin that could lead to a wider russian response. how would you risk risk reply to the secretary of state? well, i would reply to a similar which is like, you know, after almost a year of open aggression and almost 9 years of general aggression of russia. i guess you great, we should know you should not listen to any altima items or read lines or any you know, the size of an aggressor. it's high time for the for, for not only for your grain, but for the rest of the civilized world. to get even more unity in less than one country, just one country not to dictate the rest of the war. how to, how to leave. because we had to stop this russian aggression hearing. you great. it

could have spread it to other neighbors of you. great. and then further to europe, we did it together and that's our way to and to so thank you so much for joining us and spending some time in that head of the office of the president. if you great, thank you. thank you. to turkey and syria and those devastating earthquakes as of now claimed more than 40000 lives in turkey. many of the dead are being buried in mass graves, making it difficult for loved ones to find them as d. w, as jack paris reports, even where there are individual graves, many are unmarked. the unmistakable sound of grief. these people have just identified the body of a loved one at this graveyard on the outskirts of kurama marsh in southern turkey. miss duffer arrives in search of his child. how silly little hep syllable,
