ah ah ah ah ah, this is dw news lived from berlin, no less up in the fighting is the 1st anniversary of the war in ukraine approaches . we report from the frontline city of hath, on liberated by ukrainian forces, but living in fear of a fresh russian onslaught. also coming up, the united nations considers a 10 point piece plan before it by ukraine's president vladimir zalinski will get

the very latest live from new york. and the european commission tells staff to delete talk from their work phones. the chinese owned apps as the ban as misguided chief technology correspondent has the whole story. ah, i manuscripts mckennan welcome to the program. as the anniversary of russia's invasion of ukraine approaches, cities and towns on the front line face more heavy shelling by russian forces. but residence of the southern city of hudson and other communities on the front lines remain defiant. russians shelves killed sick civilians and wounded dozens this week and hudson, the city was liberated by ukrainian forces in november. but keep and its allies are expecting a wider russian spring offensive. russian president vladimir putin has restated his

goal of taking full control of easton and southern ukraine. he w correspondent, nick connelly isn't hassan, and he told me earlier what life is like now in the liberated areas. we're certainly very, very quiet here and had saw no comparison when we were lost here in the autumn, in november when ukrainian troops came back in there were people just filling the square behind me, shooting through z as in the sense that life could somehow get back to normal, that has definitely not happened. their russian troops on the other bank of the new pro river, just a handful of kilometers from where we're standing now. anywhere in the city is within range of russian artillery. really basic cheap equipment of which the russians have big, big supplies. there's no need for complicates cruise missiles. there's a city that sees daily attacks and you see even people walking very close to was keeping uncover base expecting things to happen at any point on either hand. when you going to supermarket, you can find 3 different kinds of almond milk you can find for a mineral water, all the logistics working mobile phone or ox back up power is working more or less

the datasets. a lot of people have left and they're just not believing that for now, this is a safe place to be. this is a place where people are still leaving and where you know, for the most part sellers keeping a very, very low profile. do you see any signs at all that a the ukranian resolve is, is wavering. i mean, especially after russia started targeting civilian infrastructure with, you know, these massive airstrikes in the last few months. we've seen some pretty extraordinary resilience, inability of the ukrainian infrastructure, kind of people in charge to keep things going normally it's matter of couple of days before power is restored, at least to pro household. so there's always a sense that somehow there's a solution, even if it's a temporary one or a kind of unorthodox one. but somehow there's always a way around the problems that are resulting only people at least behind the front lines in this war. as for the can psychological toll, people are openly talking about the fact that this is causing them exactly that it is affecting the mental health. lots of people say they are going to show that

until they're basically in safety to deal with that and deal with these issues. if you look at the sociology at the kind of questioning of people through kind of professionals that the numbers are kind of extraordinary. it's over 85 percent saying they don't want any compromise with russia. they want to see their country de occupied in full. and that includes crimea and other parts of ukraine that russians controlled since 2014 are certainly open. there's no, says the people are willing to kind of countenance any negotiations on russia's terms, anything that would allow russia to dictate terms to ukraine. the one thing you hear time time again here though is give us weapons, give us more equipment. this will not lead to an escalation, this will allow us to do the job quicker and bring this war to an end with fewer casualties. so that's the domestic ahead of time and time again. it's difficult. see how a country with a population of $40000000.00 can compete in the lower and with a bigger enable at russia, but slightly that's the that is off. when you speak, people have neck. thanks so much for that. that's nick connelly, reporting from her son. now the united nations general assembly is holding an

emergency session to mark the anniversary of the invasion. the assembly is considering a draft 10 point piece plan, outlined by ukraine's president va laudermill zalinski, un secretary general antonio terrace has repeated calls for the conflict to end. and for respect for the un charter delegates are expected to vote on the resolution . shortly. detail is in its pool, is following the debate at the united nations in new york, and she joins us now from there. and is, can you explain to us what today's debate is about? exactly. it is really about to show unity in our this, sir. void, sir. at the un, right behind me or a behind me in this building are kind of her a barometer or of the world opinion. and obviously, one year after the brutal invasion of a russia, it's all about unity. and the big question is,

how many countries we really will vote for this piece plan it is. we feel that here, new york very much saw or not a given that are they will get the same amount of voids as they god's right after the invasion. because many countries, especially from the global south, they rather would this war to be and a as a p a then are really making sure that your grain will get all the occupied territory back. so this will be the big challenge for politicians like the german foreign chancellor and alina babbled to reach out to those countries who are more critical and to convince them than this war that are, that this russian aggression, this russian invasion, is much more than only about ukraine said everything isn't a given, but do we have a sense of how this this is likely to turn out? well, it's interesting you. k was really hoping for an international tribunal to try put

in for the crime. aggression says, well, it will not be part of the resolution. some people say it's a vanilla resolution because it's really a kind of a watered down. but what we hear from our backgrounders said they expect, or at least 120 volts, or to support this piece or resolution. this time it came to the question, of course, as even if the un doesn't prove the resolution, what would it mean for the conflicts in ukraine? well, it definitely, again, will show us that. so many countries are still in support of ukraine, even so it might be dwindling a little bit. but you know, we have to keep in mind that's of you. and then these general assemblies are not only about the, whoa it's, it's also really about bilateral talks. we know,

for example, that an alina burbock, the german foreign minister, had intense conversation with countries like brazil, to convince them not only to vote, but also to explain what is at stake here. so i think we are, it's fair not to focus too much on the figure, but also to keep in mind that this is really a moment where world leaders are coming together and discussing and debating how the world can get out of this very conflict. he w, washington bureau chief in his full reporting from neil. thank you so much. okay, we're gonna take a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. the european union has unveiled what it calls a game changing data center to collect and analyze evidence of war crimes in ukraine is expected to be fully operational. by this summer, there are growing calls for an independent tribunal to prosecute to russia. full crimes, part of a huge open cast coal mine and china has collapsed killing at least 5 people,

dozens more still missing. cctv footage captured the land slide in in a mongolia and i can't see cruise was searching for survivors. but a 2nd slide has now halted rescue operations. i dear, is presidential candidates have signed a piece pledge, promising to settle any grievances through the courts. they aim to comp, is that a close election result may lead to violence? saturday's vote is tip to be the most credible there since military rule ended in 1999. and the james web space telescope has discovered what appear to be 6 massive galaxies, dating back to the dawn of the universe. astronomers, the thing the discovery could append theories of cosmetology because the galaxies are far, lot larger than previously thought possible. now

israel aircraft have attacked targets in the gaza strip in retaliation for palestinian militants firing rockets into israel. an earlier israeli raid and the occupied west bank left 11 palestinians dead and dozens more wounded. missiles streaked across the morning sky near garza, israel's military seas sic sprockets were fired by palestinian militants. 2 hours later it responded with air strikes on an alleged mass site. the blast come a day after a deed. the military operation by israeli forces in the occupied waste bank the morning right? reduced this building to rabble israel's military. it. the operation was aimed at arresting militants accused of planning and carrying out attacks. it claims israeli soldiers shot back after coming under fire, but did not suffer any casualties. while the right unfolded,

palestinians came out on to the street and confronted the troops. dozens of people are reported to have been injured, as well as those killed. roger and another surprised at 9 30 in the morning were not heard explosion as before he pl said there were special forces for the 100. so a large number of israeli soldiers storm the whole area, local who stayed in the house and i didn't know what was going on. i'm not up with her. just last month. another right in the city of janine also ended with teen. people killed these who rides of the deepest westbank operations in years. the you in has warned that if, if it's a not made to deescalate the violence could spiral out of control. the european commission has told it staff to delete tick tock from their work phones. the ban reflects growing unease surrounding security and the chinese own video sharing app. tick tock says it regrets the ban, calling it misguided needle. his chief technology correspondent yena delica,

told me why the european commission has decided on this band now. well, the european commission told its staff today that they should delete tick tock from their phone if they also use those phones for some kind of burke related purposes. now the european commission says it's a temporary suspension, not a permanent ban. but it also says that, you know, it's an early response to an, a quote here, potential cyber alerts. and of course it comes here as we're seeing debate over whether or not to ban take talk around the world in the u. s. tick tock has already been banned from federal government devices. and now the commission here in europe followed, sued. and i think what's really important here is the symbolic value of this decision. i mean, you have one of the key european institutions telling it staffers. no, we do not consider it safe for you at this point in time to you have take talk on

your phone. ok, now take talk has already issued a response to the decision. has the net, can you tell us what they're saying? yeah, well, i mean the company isn't happy by dance, which is tick tock. so parent company called the decision misguided and i quote, based on fundamental misconceptions. it said it had requested a meeting with european commission officials to quote, set the record straight. now, earlier this month, tick tock told us that when it comes to the data of users within the e u, it complies with all the strict data protection rules that we have here in europe. but today's decision by the european commission at least suggests that officials don't seem to be so sure about that. okay, can we talk about the, the relationship between the chinese government and take talk given the concerns that european commission is, is voicing in it, does it?

does beijing direct what ticked out of i mean, that is the big question. and the honest answer is, we don't know earlier this month, tick tock told us, and i'm quoting here, we have never been asked to provide tick tock, user data to the chinese government, and have never provided any data to it. but at the same time, we do have high ranking officials, particularly in the u. s. were arguing that the chinese government does have influence over the ab and that it could use it as sort of a trojan horse to gain access to data abroad. now we don't know what led to the decision today, but what is become clear is that european officials seem to have security concerns as well. all right. really fascinating stuff. t w's chief technology correspondent, younger, south dakota. thank you so much for that. his reminder of the top story that we're following for you today has been no less up in the facing as the 1st anniversary of the war in ukraine approaches. the frontline city of hassan has been liberated by
