the, the wild starts in the 19 dw, the, this is dw news line from berlin. rochelle launch is a new wave of arrow tax on ukraine. its the 9th time the russian military has had keep this month in the black sea port of odessa. one person was killed by a so striking ukrainian children allegedly deported to russian time since may have

gone missing out. some are being reunited with their factors also on the shelf causes of people in northern virginia or evacuated because of floating plus hollywood, favorites archaeologist is back in action. the indiana jones and the dial of destiny on correspondence joins is from the public phone in the us. welcome to the program. russia has launched another series of aerial attacks on ukraine. at least one person was killed in the southern port city of odessa. explosions, also rock the capital cave. smoke rises over cuba again. in

a co escalation, prussian girl could stall, get to the gap dues for the 9th time this month. a toad, you choose messiahs. what am that cities across the ukraine overnight, but in a show fits, improve to defense capabilities. you cream says it shut down all, but one of them this damage new to kindergarten and a good dodge was done by falling debris. there was a very powerful explosion. then i saw the smoke with them, i find out that the debris fell and the guy just with mine is nearby. i can see the rocket to be nice and you have the like the one messiah that got to hit the southern port city before that. so a part of dc, one person was killed and 2 of those injured the latest escalation comes as western allies supply,

increasingly sophisticated weapons to keep ahead of with highly anticipated spring offensive for residents here are designed to life and of war. it is just another the under adoption of tax, but it's just because it's, we cleaned it up. now the sand will be removed because they're cinders and their small children. here is what, everything will be clean and fine. so despite the damage you creams improved, ad defenses may just be providing a very address. but for residents here. well, the to view correspondence to us building a is in keys and told us more about the latest attacks. yeah, we woke up again this night to explosions. it was around 5 in the morning. um uh, defense clearly working they have a very distinct sound from, for example, uh hits and um, uh then uh,

later we found out that all of the rockets flying on to keep were intercepted unlike the one in odessa that hit uh and uh that killed at least one person. um we uh see these attacks quite frequently now we its the nighttime within this month. the nice time within may always at nights. uh, but uh, the defense is really, really doing its job here. most of these midsize can be intercepted all of them besides flying onto the keys, i usually intercepted that's a clear improvement to what we've seen just off a year ago. wind rush, if i had these garages at energy infrastructure, where also lots of themselves were shut down, but the number made it to the targets. um, so the delivery of these systems, the patriots, the iris t and then a some systems is really improving the situation for civilians here on the ground. let's say is let's talk about those patriot defense systems. because the u. s. is

saying that those systems which are being used in ukraine site likely so for some damage and in recent russian attacks. so do we know how these latest to me solves, were interest after? of the new plan doesn't disclose what exactly it uses in order not to put to the systems of hazard. we've heard that damage was done to the patriot system. minimal damage, as one official in the u. s. has said, uh so the system might well be operational. the system consists of some subaru. modules. the is the c'mon center, there are the rages and there are uh the, the launches. uh and um, depending on what was damaged, the other units might still be working and the system might still be functional, although less powerful. because for example, if one of the launches is that much, they have less rockets to launch. but um, uh,

it's quite possible that it was working this night. however, there's also other systems in use, the iris t, the german system, the ne sims, an o region and american system, which can also intercept these besides the christmas holidays this night, cruise missiles are a bit easier to intercept then a ballistic messiahs, which had been shot 2 nights ago when reportedly the system was damaged. uh uh, it seems that patriot has an x over the other systems when it comes to ballistic missiles, but not cruise missiles tanks, my teeth still use my teeth spinning in keys. 7 7 as well, researchers say sizes of ukranian children may have been forcibly deported to russia, dw is mac sander has been investigating the disappearances and reports now on have some children are being reunited with their families. this is victoria

chrome city of her son was occupied by russian forces for 8 months. during that time, her daughter katia was taken to training. katya was 12 when the war started, a sensitive and creative little girl. she would drawn write poems in fairy tales. and yet she knew what was going on, her mother tells you to stall, i just wanted for her to have a break from middle initial message for most people from the military men and the military vehicles for you on the bus down. let's see. you know, in the evening you go to bed and you hear russian military machines passing by dr. difficult. because the boston block of money and it was especially scared even the shot at the windows. from off on the salem, no criminal justice. i thought you would get a rest from all this at the camp in the someone behind your proof of symbol. that's the holiday camp. she said katya to thinking it would be safe.

she accepted an invitation from teachers were under pressure by occupation authorities to move the children. so what can be done to get back here to have disappeared into the russian system. in most cases, there is little hope. there is no system in place and no official cooperation between the ukrainian and russian side. finding the children is the 1st big challenge. victoria had to go from harrison to crimea. usually they would take 4, maybe 5 hours of driving with going directly is no longer a safe option. she had to travel through ukraine, neighboring poland, cross into russia, line bella roost, and then through enemy territory, about 3000 kilometers in total, each way. back home. victoria arrived on this bus with her daughter katya. there too, of

a group of done the journey together. thought you did not know her mother was coming for her. i was very happy to have no words to describe it. victoria and other mothers could only do this with the aid of the n g o. save ukraine. they help with the logistics passports, buses, and navigating the borders. it's ross and strategy for children. it's through sci fi, ukrainian children. that's why they know need to be them and torture. it is a child. the child's brain is so flexible. if you, every day feeds via a brain of your poison truck, your propaganda poison. and during one month to month, this child will say over russia is maybe not bad. it's the strategy to date save ukraine has managed to facilitate 96 returns,

but they're getting increasingly difficult. each time western countries took another step to help you print against russia. the questionnaire rose, how to avoid provoking putting how to prevent him from doing something, even worse than once. he already started for thousands of ukrainian families. the russians have already made their worst nightmares come true. as they took the kids that was max under reporting their well. katarina litzy named co works with the aide organization, save the children in ukraine and told us how many ukrainian children have been taken to russia or russian occupied territories. this is a really difficult question to answer straightforwardly because unfortunately, save the children, just like other organizations working on this issue is struggling to verify the exact number. because we have a range of numbers that we're able to verify at this point. there is

a discrepancy between what the government of ukraine provides as the official number and then what the government of the russian federation confirms was the number on the ground. so anywhere between $219000.00 children is what the government's referred to. that's quite a large number there and quite a huge difference as well. do. do we know what the most common circumstances under which ukrainian children get separated from their parents are you are right to say that there are various circumstances under which children are transferred, so they could be transferred during and evacuation. they can be separated with their parents during the evaluation and a full tracing process with the school, the full tracing process. they could be separated when they go to summer camps or

recreational facilities and not returned back. and of course, there is also another group of children that are separate to another company, and that is children from institutions. so before february 2022, ukraine had about 100000 children in institutions of various type across ukraine and being an institution makes children a lot more vulnerable and has higher risk, including for things like for us to transfer and trafficking. what makes it so difficult to locate the children and then subsequently to bring them back to ukraine? unfortunately, the situation was quite poor. the size, which a time was, makes it quite difficult to stablish the dialogue and the very absence of the technical level dialogue and sort of from the higher level dialogue between the 2

countries is also something that is a barrier to verifying where the children are verifying the information about the children and specifically reuniting them with their families. well, let's talk about them when they're reunited with their families. what kind of support do they need and what did they receive? first of all, the can definitely we talk about how difficult it is and how traumatic it is for children to be taken out of the concepts of been taken out of the culture the know and be transferred to a different culture. so upon return, even though it is absolutely an important and wonderful event to be reunited with their families space, so need mental support. they still need to sort of work with the trauma work with some or with the psychological aspects of it. so um, organizations on the ground including see if the children that's an important part

of the work that we try to provide to the children that return and as well as they are families. of course, because that is a very difficult time for them to katarina. nathan, and go with save the children and ukraine, thanks for joining us on dw, and also thanks for all your great work. thank you for holding. well, let's take a look now with some of the other stories making use around the world. world leaders are gathering for a summit of the g 7 group of nations and the japanese city of harassment on the agenda are tighter sanctions against russia over the war and ukraine. regional tensions around taiwan will also come under discussion. thousands of demonstrators have rallied an argentine as capitol of one situs. workers are protesting against governmental, sturdy measures, and post to comply with a $44000000000.00 loan from the international monetary fund. activists are planning

to setup company in the city canada as asking for international health to deal with raging wild fires. the blazes in the province of alberta have spread to neighboring british columbia. and so scott, you and tysons of canadian firefighters have already been called in love to italy where at least 11 people have been killed and many more are missing in flooding in the north of the country. or far as he's our warning, there may be worse to come as heavy rains by here, the region, the formular, one, media romani a ground pre has been cancelled. it's the worst floating in italy, in a 100 years. hoffer yes. rainfall, felling just a few days in the amelia ramana region in the north of the country. thousands of people have been evacuated as rescue work

has bottled through the night. to save those traps by the floods, the locals raised to clear the mud laden streets before it drives doing what they come with. what little they have been. we've been cleaning all day. i can't take it anymore. residents in one town pick through the damage we need to fix everything. we need to do everything from the beginning. the books on the documents, all the clothes are all gosh, this the because you have to get out. you have to leave the house. you can see why

the heavy rains caused over 20 rivers to best at bunks and almost 300 land slides. stephano bona tina, the regional president said the cost of the damage totals, billions of euros. with the rain fall cost. low coals remain where it is, and i've also gotten the food i case. our biggest fear is that if it starts reading again with the home, the dyke, if it were to start reading again, we fear that the water could again rise. that's our biggest fear. these make ship roadside battery is the only defense the many against the floating . alright, joining you know is scott duncan, a london based meteorologist, thanks for joining us on dw scott. so we're constantly hearing warnings or by record hot weather, increasingly extreme weather patterns. so do you think this disaster is connected

to the, to the climate crisis? so when it comes to weather's and extremes on climate change, it does become quite difficult when you start zooming in on the details. climate change is something that's impacts and the globe and its impacts and nicole in different ways. for example, we've been looking at it as well as far as seems up in canada. we've got these extreme rainfall conditions that in its way it's also quite cold relative for the time of year across the parts of europe. right now it's actually very cold. in australia, there's lots of different extremes going on in the weather. and the claim is all part of our weather and this is a part of it kind of the news that we see nowadays. but i think there are some extremes, are harder to attribute to climate change. and i think what's going on it's, we could be one of those. and obviously this is going back a 100 years of data. this is a very extreme rain pull event and it's not to don't play the situation in any way . it's whole, but it's these and extreme placed when it comes to rainfall,

it can often pour when it rains and its weakness stranger to some of the most intense rainfall. absolutely. and you have actually holes and some of the biggest records for rainfall to to is this just a very good place of goods. obviously not the right word is the places print for st . rainfall events. we do have extreme weather pattern, but is the weather pattern driven by climate change resides, is blocking that music streams whiplash from drive to to flood is there. and it's often better just to step back and look at a number of these types of weather events. but to use just one weather event on its own, it often is quite hard and to go into the details, right, to go to be a little bit careful when it comes to attribution. and when we look at the attempt to records, for example, it might be a little easier to attribute to climate change, but always in the background when it comes to rainfall records, a warmer welds does a lot of these writing for records to be broken easier. so background, there is fingerprints on these types of records, but i think we're just gonna be a little bit careful before we kind of rush in to a tradition when the rain is still falling. now you mentioned that their

temperature records and some of actually already warned that we should brace for new temperature records this year. so what will the effect of those temperature records be? could we see more flooding in europe for, for example, and around the world? they wouldn't let me look at rainfall. often. we can look averages. how is the rainfall following is, is one of those things is really important. for example, if a months worth of rain falls in one day, you could say, well then you've got your month average completed and then it's dry for the rest. obviously, the person that's living in this place is not a typical month by any means. you've got one day frame, then 29 days of all stripes in effect. so i think it's very difficult when it comes to looking at hot months to address these in the hands on how these extremes will will pano done. i think kind of brought headlines that we're going to head into when the r and d correct is that some surprising given and highways being walking in the

claimant's, especially in the last few decades. but when it comes to rain full extremes, i think that's a very difficult one. scott duncan meteorologist who's joining us from long. thank you. a tense stand off is underway between police and the former pakistani prime minister in rome con police of surrendered funds home in lahore. they say he sheltering supporters involved in violent protests when he was arrested for alleged corruption. khan was released after the high court declared the corruption case against him, the legal as well earlier d. w spoke exclusively to the former prime minister, and we asked him rock on whether he's quoting for calm or encouraging his supporters to protest the predict the best 2 players when they saw me be adopted from the basis of the high gold by the um, that's why the best,

the best they don't know, but just right now there is no public disorder. but what is happening is that there's a track down. i'm president, track down taking place. i begin to be back in dias. human, see me and leadership as in jim. think i've been from board as a couple of of the board. think again, get realistic. the women will be the rest. a lot of the women living and also commissions because they seem to be a lot there. unfortunately. oh, you know what? i'm right now. it is a regional real facing. so be there is no one right now that was pakistan's ex prime minister in ron con, speaking exclusively to d, w. and you can find the full interview on youtube and on our website dw, dot com. all right, moving on to at the cannes film festival, which is in full swing with the stars, bringing high glamour to the french riviera for the 76th edition. tonight is the

premier of one of the festivals most anticipated films, indiana jones, and the dial of destiny, starring harrison ford. it's the actors last performance in the franchise. and the final movie in the series 21 films are competing for the palm door. that's the top price. well dw scott rocks for is our mind on the red carpet in kind, an earlier i asked him how big the boys was about indiana jones's last adventure. yeah, no, i mean it's, it's huge. obviously, this is the biggest uh, uh, film sheet from pretty much premier in here uh, massive a blockbuster. and so the streets here and can, are just packed with people, trying to get a glimpse of harrisonville or tv all or bridge and match because of the stars of the new movie. and the film itself, as you said, it's the 5th entry in the indiana jones film, the last one, the star,

harrison ford i'm. it's that later than the other, indiana jones film is actually set at the peak of the cold war and the 1960s. and it, it sees uh, indiana jones fighting again against the nazis this time ex nazis played by match nicholson, who is a trying to, he's a and not the trying to co op. the nasa space program for his own. the fairy is hands, so a very big slice of hollywood popcorn. the sort of act as um, as a, as a counselor programming, i've had to the more intense art house movies that are typical for cam has got higher since ford is guaranteed prize. if this year is fast, but why is that? yes, you're absolutely right. um he's not going to win. it's for uh, indiana jones. uh, but he is this tonight at the premier of indiana jones. he's going to get a honorary palm door, which is the that the top prize of the cannes film festival. i'm and this is sort of a tradition that was started last year with tom cruise,

who was here for the top gun, maverick. and they also gave him their top prize. i honory a palm door and the beginning of the harris and forward this evening. and i think it's a, it's a way of can, a, for, can to sort of on are these big hollywood blockbuster movies which have sort of been trees like 2nd class citizens here in canada. they are sort of looked down upon by the sort of the art house, a leak, that is the, the traditional audience here and can by observe, opening up a little bit and letting these blockbusters in and, and presenting these awards to these big, huge hollywood stars. i think hans, trying to open the doors of that and build a bit of a bridge uh to, to hollywood that i think it could have something to do with the new head of the festival. because the new can president is, is a snowplow and she's the 1st female presence. but more importantly, perhaps, she used to be an executive at warner brothers. so she's very close connections to hollywood. and i think maybe it's part of her influence that we're seeing not only these big hollywood stars of walk through a carpet here,

but them really getting honored with can stop price. and that's got german filmmaker, vin vendors, is presenting to new feature films this year. what are they and those based double his chances of winning yes, not interested in the i just saw mr. vin vendors, uh, earlier the today uh, coming out of the mens toilet at uh, one of the swanky beach resorts. uh that line uh, the ocean here in can and that's kind of significant because one of his films called perfect days is set in a man's toilet in japan and it follows a toilet cleaner who goes through and planes these incredibly swanky, a high end public toilets in, in japan now supposedly a metaphysical look at life through the eyes of, of this product later on. that's what they'll be has the other film is called an slum. and it's a 3 d documentary now, 2 very different movies. it doesn't unfortunately, double his chances of getting the palm door because only one perfect days the

toilet cleaner film is actually and competitions that is only chance to win another palm door time. scott, scott: rock tspra for us in cum as you're watching dw news coming up next in dw news, asia japan wants to nuclear security on the agenda. i think g 7 so much for walk and leaders to, to tackle the threat. and physician will have that all that's just after a short break. i'll be back again at the top of the next there till then take care . the
