before world war 2, almost a 3rd of war. so as population was jewish, ever since nazi germany had invaded poland in 1939 jews, there were subjected to constant persecution by the occupiers. a year later they were confined to the warsaw ghetto, leaving without permission was punishable by death as was helping its inhabitants. hunger infectious diseases dire sanitary conditions, slave labor made for hellish conditions in the ghetto. by 942, almost 100000 people had died of starvation or disease or be murdered in summary executions that same year. the mass deportation of jews from the warsaw ghetto to treblinka extermination comp began within a period of just 2 months. nearly 300000 were murdered the following year in april 19, 432 jewish resistance groups started an uprising against the germans. despite some initial successes, the uprising was crushed by the nazis who destroyed the ghetto. those who survived
6:05 pm
the rebellion were sent to tripling a death camp and other camps many were murdered. the uprising was one of the largest acts of resistance by jews during world war 2. and i witness wrote at the time, jewish war so had ceased to exist. the nazis had erased one of the biggest jewish communities in europe. war let's bring in the w correspondent, magdalena diverse, the polar cot, who is in warsaw at the memorial, forrest magdalena. it was the 1st time that a german representative spoke at the memorial. how was present time my speech received? well, as you mentioned, we are exactly at that place, were dead speeches and a common moravian took place to day. and as he can also see, many flowers are left to you at the place among a presidential males. the 1st girl from germany allowed to speak here because as
6:06 pm
many as you may remember, 9070, and a german chancellor village bronze was kneeling down exactly at the same place, but without saying any word. so it was really the 1st speech from a german state guest, hugh and it was as the are the 2 speeches from the polish and is really president, very emotional. and it hurts here in silence as it was such an important day to day for jewish history. for israel, but also for a poland and for the history of war. so as the ghetto uprising took place in the very heart of war. so in the middle of the city, i'm so shy my speech was heard in silence and, and i think it was a very good. i'm taken by everyone who was hearing to dead as he starts with memories of the survivors. and he also spoke about the actual situation in the world and about the war in the ukraine. so the 1st time
6:07 pm
a german had stayed sher speaking at this memorial ceremony. how would you describe relations between germany and poland today? well, it was quite surprising there exactly. at this time were polish german relationships are not the best one in his theory. i'm president andre to we are. the polish president invites a german president to come at this. they go and give a speech. hugh, am the people who survived the holocaust and who were here also day to day and told us that they were glad that had this there has been made and that the germans state representative speaks you to day. and i don't know if you have seen that, but, and the end of the in commemoration president shine maya and that is really and polish president fell on the knees a lying down to flowers, which was very emotional. and i asked german president if that gesture was planned,
6:08 pm
and he answered no, that was such an emotional moment to day and gestures like that. arnold plant before by glean a thank you very much. that was d. w, corresponded magdalena devotional, hollow, caught in warsaw. now ukraine says it has received germany's delivery of a patriot air defense system in a tweet picturing 3 patriot launchers, ukraine's defense minister thanked is u. s. dutch and german counterparts. washington is also promised to provide keith with one of the u. s. made systems to help defend his skies against russian strikes. the netherlands has also plants to provide missiles and parts leaked. u. s. intelligence briefs recently suggested ukraine is running out of rockets for its soviet era air defense systems. as the war in ukraine grinds on, people in some parts of the country are already working to rebuild with the
6:09 pm
russians have destroyed. but one of the biggest issues facing them is the threat posed by the land mines. ukraine's military estimates that a 3rd of the countries contaminated by anti personnel and anti vehicle mines, as well as unexploded or abandoned ordinance. experts say it will take years to clear such a vast area. agricultural workers are especially affected. ukraine was once one of the world's bread baskets, but now much of its fertile land is too dangerous to be used. dw max tonda filed this report from the de occupied territories of the hockey, reached wholly human should be dusting of tractors in sewing equipment. but he's got nothing left to work with. the russians were here. and when they departed, they took everything with them. both. if
6:10 pm
with duke was the 3 macola woodridge, who big or the move, where will clothes utilize $1000000000.00 will talk with the hood. buick girl with the youth with that a little bully. but all will read that he is a live more will nauseous. li alicia, 30 people working here before the war. but since then his business lost half a 1000000 euros for a small company that's devastating. it was a relief when the russians withdrew from the hockey region here, but they left a threat to the future, buried in the ground. well, that they wasn't c boiling fire from wolf feeding savoy. i knew so many are, well if you will fit that got cut off my you see by law still know what the decline
6:11 pm
equally up more than that. look at the harder with the ground on it should be ploughing and planting is too dangerous to move heavy equipment on. i mean for that simple to don kowana was an old one, always to look for which auto mall which it was. it came through the prism, the hockey region is considered 100 percent contaminated by mines and unexploded ordnance. it's easy to find stuff. this is the tail of a missile. it contains the engine of a russian smash. who knows what's in the ground? no, for me, will take place on this soil until the place has been cleared by a professional de mining team. and this is the situation for thousands of farmers in many parts of ukraine. at the beginning of the season. we are about to learn that some people are willing to take their chances. yodi drove his tractor over
6:12 pm
a mine. he is lucky to be alive as suitable to abuse it though that not on my land bullshit wooded over the village from me and is 9 at the guard wanna but on this is nick mallos quote. he was well known blood v as in just not a mile, i still fairly then little near whistle loses. despite the danger, he says he will continue to work. and as he shows us to his own demining, these are just a few of the things he found on the field. they f, l, e, f, barrow and thumb t, someone who's from the figure, logo, grady on the pedal. you know, the unit bus lead me at the 4th or 5th beautiful off in fields across the region. demining teams like this from the halo trust are doing what they can to prevent this from happening. they're finding many different,
6:13 pm
dangerous auntie personnel minds with pressure blades on the person. oh mine bonding fragmentation ah, mines grenades on trip wires and we are and find in all sorts of a cluster munition used any grain on the vehicle winds in plastic and metal cases. they estimate that 30 to 40 percent of ukraine needs to be checked before being declared safe. we have people that not being able to walk on their own land on their own yards, co for picnic or walk freely because of the mines in the other. handly conte cultivate their land and which is like the most cases the 1st the source of income for the family. although scenarios can be infer structure areas that are again contaminated just in ukraine. we are seeing the number of accidents increasing no matter how long the war lasts. the danger of minds will last much longer. farmer
6:14 pm
ali yoman has been waiting for help, but is now seriously considering trying to clear his fields himself. if he can't get the season started, he says people will leave and never come back. earlier we spoke to johan floss bought the german state secretary in the ministry of economic cooperation and development. he's been asked with helping to read. he's been tasked with helping to rebuild ukraine by the german government. he told us how much of a problem land mines are for the reconstruction effort. yeah, it is definitely one of the big problems. demining therefore, is a priority for a 0 crane in government. and also for the international community, it has been addressed by the international coordination platform where i represent germany. but unfortunately, it's only one of the priorities as a many of those challenges. and just looking at agriculture sector we on to the
6:15 pm
mining, we are running risks that farmers specifically small holder farmers leaving business and might not return due to mines, but also due to increased cost for inputs for seeds, for fertilizers. and of course, also for having difficulties to, to sell it for their product on the global markets. now you're in the ukranian capital key of to discuss rebuilding strategies right now. how are you craning authorities approaching the issue? and what's germany's role in helping the country recover while we are part of the international community, it was launched under the g 7 presidency of germany last december. because we believe that reconstruction has to be done strategically. we should avoid
6:16 pm
unnecessary doubling or tripling of efforts where we leave gaps and finance gap in other areas. i think there are a number of strategic areas where as a reconstruction needs to start already. now, for example, in the energy sector, but also ends a traffic and transport sector in housing. for example. some say it's too early to work on rebuilding ukraine when the country is still at war. why are you starting now? its own, we are fixing problems wherever the russians destroy something. it is going to be fixed in the energy sector is housings, a sector, and via providing support, but it's also tackled logically, it could be a message to crime, but also to russia. whatever russia is bomb being to be out on the side of a crime to fix it, already has a view to long term construction. the ukraine is aiming for you membership it's,
6:17 pm
it's submitted an application, but it still has many obstacles, including a huge problem with corruption. might that stop you sources and others from investing in the country? yes, corruption is that one of the big problems that has to be solved. it is luckily on the high on the agenda of the government and just focus parliamentarians also of the parliament and corruption if it is not stopped. it might be a game stop or into support by other countries because it is needed to bid a robust and a mature democracy. mr. class. bob, thank you very much for taking time to talk with us. that was your can floss bought state secretary of the german federal government in charge of helping to rebuild ukraine. thank you very much. your for your time. a pleasure. siegel to smother stories making headlines, round the world. today. bulgaria has temporarily band grain imports from
6:18 pm
neighboring ukraine. the government says the measure is necessary to protect local farmers from an influx of cheaper produce restrictions do not apply to goods transiting through the country. hungry, poland, and walk. you have all introduced similar events. a russian court has rejected an appeal by opposition, politician in the of the machine against his lengthy jail sentence if she was charged under russian censorship laws for his comments on the russian work on russian war crimes in ukraine. he was sentenced to 8 and a half years in prison. sedans army has agreed to a 24 hour cease fire after paramilitary group or r s. f earlier announced its commitment to a truce on social media is comes after a ceasefire, agreed yesterday between the 2 factions collapsed, 5 days of deadly fighting is killed. hundreds of people and devastated areas of the capital cartoon. the r s f and the armed forces seized power together in a joint,
6:19 pm
coo and 2021, but differences on how to govern, lead detentions that erupted in violence. on saturday. germany has cancelled a plan, evacuation of german citizens from sudan, that's according to local media. dw political correspondent benjamin our is gruber said the mission to deploy military aircraft cartoon was aborted at the last minute . so it is the spiegel, that is reporting. it's saying that 3 military aircrafts took off from a germany to greece to a refueling stuff to then continued to sit on. the mission was to evacuate $150.00 german nationals, but then the german government took it the decision to abort this bonus of emission . it shows how dynamic the situation is. we just heard it also with the sci fi as with a fighting around the airport and that's what the spokesperson of the german government sat today. we are pulled by the level of violence, especially against
6:20 pm
a civilians. even though the german government did not confirm or deny this media reports a bi dash beagle, they said that they are evaluating the situation that in the weekend they had like this warning, a travel warning to sedan telling. it's german, national to already the, in the country to shelter in a safe space that the, a monitoring is that there are several ministries involved, not just the foreign ministry, but also the defense ministry to address the situation to see exactly what can be done. they were asked specifically about this media reports that they could not go had with this mission earlier today, but they are assessing the situation. but of course, if they were to decide something that would involve more and forces as well, almost like a feet on the ground that would need the approval of the bonus stock. so for them following the situation very closely, but not it neither confirming, not denying these reports that we got by their spiegel. so german media earlier today. so fluid and dangerous situation incident, t w's political correspond,
6:21 pm
benjamin over his group of thank you very much. scientists have turned to an unlikely source to learn more about how to prevent dangerous blood clots. hibernating bearers research on brown bears in sweden began after scientist wondered why they don't develop clots despite being immobile for weeks or months. at a time. it turns out, understanding the biochemistry behind this could have major implications for human health. beth may seem an unlikely source of inspiration to prevent risky blood clots in humans. but scientists were willing to whether the swedish winter checking through the snow to analyze the animals. after noticing an interesting quirk in their biology, certain people, for example, who in my voice say someone who is powerless, the wheelchair down, tend not to be an increased risk of having the pain from bosis,
6:22 pm
despite the fact that they're not moving a legs. so why is this? so we turned to an interesting solution to this problem, and that was to look ramirez. because bombay is hypenated for periods in the winter . they don't meet the tool yet. they seem to be protected from from bosis. along with hibernating, brown bez, the scientists investigated patients with back injuries who were mobilized alongside on injured volunteers who took a months bedrest as part of the trial. the bad live in reserve and also in sweden. they could easily be located because they were tagged with gps tracking devices. scientist took blood samples from the sleeping bags in winter, and then again when the pads were active in spring time, they focused on a protein called h. s p 47. that's important in the closing process. when they are
6:23 pm
awake, on average there was a near total reduction of h. s. b $47.00 in the blood of the hibernating, bez and the resting human volunteers levels of the protein where on average 50 percent lower compared to when they were active. the bez showed that reducing levels that the protein plays a key role in preventing close. discovering something like this is hugely exciting is will scientists live? so it may be hard to believe, but course a lot of what science involves is quite repetitive. a lot of repetition. and you are always thinking about the long term going to thinking about what will be like to find something for the 1st time. also maybe discovery that could have a really big impact in this case on human health. so hugely exciting. scientists now have a new target for drugs to fight dangerous blood clots. they say new treatments could hit the market and as little as 5 years. let's bring in doctor joe little
6:24 pm
here. she is a research officer at the university of reading, working with professor gibbons on platelets and blood clotting. welcome to the w news. tell us how groundbreaking is this research high that this is great. we, you know, we all get along whole flights and we pop compression sucks on to stop d v t. it's happening and we have trucks that are able to do that, but they still have to and so the fact that we're able to identify new mechanisms, the 3 about species. so we've got in humans, we know what happens in bass. this is really exciting. what you're talking about when you use a deep btn, you're talking about deep thrombosis kinds of thrombosis that leads to blood clots that can kill people. of course, tell us how does this approach differ from existing treatments for blood clots. said this is the 1st time that this mechanism has been talk. it's that so just
6:25 pm
before 7 is not being used or identified in an area. so go ahead and so intense at that way that this gifts as a completely new target that we can have essentially new treatments for. how unusual is it for scientists to look, hurt, completely different animals. in this case, we're looking at, you're looking at hibernating bears to address human health problems. so he is animals in research all the time. so in the paper that we're talking about, there's also my picks. but i don't think there's ever been hyphenate, in best used in this kind of study before. now, do you anticipate that the research you've been doing could lead to a drug treatment that is going to become commonly used so? so this definitely shortens the timeline. we have drugs that we can use to target,
6:26 pm
hey, just be 4 to 7, they exist already and, and say whether they can use theirs to prevent keep them from best. that is something that still requires a lot of work, but it's definitely closer than i was trying to find something that doesn't exist. currently. jim a little dr. jennifer little from the university of redding. thank you very much. thank you. there are watching d. they'll be news from berlin. just reminder of the top stories were following for you this hour. the president of poland, israel and germany have marked the 80th anniversary of the warsaw ghetto uprising in the polish capital. revolt is known as the single largest act of jewish resistance against the nazis during world war 2. first published i'mma gave a speech asking for forgiveness for his country's historical crimes. coming up next in d. w. news, asia. should the taliban boosters,
