and damaged the e. u. in the 7 member states with missions in sudan including france, germany in italy, miss try to get an estimated 1500 nationals trapped in her tune out safely excited deutschen disease. but when the number of germans you contact us is growing every day and is currently in the low 3 digit range as of today, friday afternoon, we inform local germans daily with the so called in compatriot letter on the latest developments going to some of them also currently cut off from all communications i need from in isn't the outside our fund eckleman. he got soon up cushioning. but as gunfire resumed in her team shortly after the 2 sites announced to 72 our ceasefire . this latest truce is already crumbling, german foreign minister and lena bear, bog says germany is preparing to evacuate it citizens from saddam. but bear buck said that will only happen when there is

a cease fire that quote holds for at least some time. the german foreign office convened its emergency task force on friday to discuss the issue. burbock said the number of germans applying for evacuation is growing daily. for more on jimmy's evacuation efforts, i am now joined here in the studio by d. w. political correspondent, benjamin alvarez. grouper benjamin, what more can you tell us about germany's evacuation plants? we don't have any numbers yet. they're still talking about a lower 3 digit number that is growing. but as we just heard the for a minister, that's the problem that they have that many of them a cannot be contacted anymore, that they are problems with a cell phone connection also to get them to plate us to be in touch with them. there was another meeting to day earlier today with germany's foreign minister on adena babel and defense minister boris historian. and the siena. babylon mentioned yesterday as well. but as with her, it's a very dramatic situation. it's

a very dynamic situation as well because one thing is a ceasefire that could be promised by the sudanese armed forces that is in touch with several governments. but the big question is, will they be able to enforce it for them, for many countries to get the citizens out of saddam? so i just want to be clear about this. there is ongoing fighting, going on right now on the ground. germany is setting up an evacuation plan, but it still does not know how many germans are in the country. they're still trying to contact them. there is a database in electronic database. we're germans, would travel abroad, can register themselves. there are changes there. the problem is, and there's also, we had some immediate reports only a few days ago, a long irish people article saying that there was already a rescue mission in place that there were 3 military cargo planes, en route to sudan that they had to a boat. this mission due to the security a situation they were in greece for a refueling stop, and then they had to aboard it and sent them back. so to find this window where they can actually take the people out to get them to a safe place where they have been saying. so 1st of all, last week and the germans,

for a minister said a travel advisory saying that people should not go to sudan. and for those who are already that germans are already there, that they should contact the embassy and try to shelter in a safe place until they have more information of how they can beat. yeah. taken out of the country, you don't have to an expert to imagine that evacuation indeed circumstances is no easy task, including not knowing yet how many people are actually on the ground. what else are authorities having to cope with? so there's fighting, ongoing, close of year porting cartoon sedans, capital and that makes it really difficult for them also to assess the situation. either i groups or try to gain control of the airport. but there's also legal thing because as long as soon as germany wants to have boots on the ground, for example, sending soldiers who them protect the area, they would need to have the bonus sec approval. so the approval of the parliament, they have to address the situation. now there is a crisis group within the government with many ministries. we have the defense

ministry, the foreign ministry, also the chancellor reassessing the situation. and just to give you a sense on how critical the situation is that boys pa, storage dominance defense minister was supposed to travel to the yes it to morrow he canceled their plan. that's also probably due to the fact that they are considering and see if there is another attempt. and if they will be able to on one said reach the germans were there and then take them out of the country safely. as always, many thanks to our d. w political correspondent, benjamin alvarez, grouper and now to the war here in europe, ukraine's western allies have been meeting at an air base here in germany. the most senior u. s. defense officials repeated pleasures to stand with ukraine in its fight against russia for as long as it takes. and they promise that american tanks do for delivery later this year will make a difference on the battlefield. a show of solidarity for ukraine from its west allies as the war continues to rage. us defense secretary lloyd austin praised the
