echoing those lists while placing responsibility at most coastal. how is of to the destruction it cause good them? germany's chancellor was taken paused in a public forum on local television when asked about the damage in southern ukraine . he did not hesitate when it came to laying blame because because our event this cl, i thought this is something that fits in with many of the crimes we have seen committed by russian soldiers and ukraine. and as part of a warfare that attack civilian targets. they of the towns of villages, the hospitals of schools was infrastructure, which in the 1st place would not be military targets, investment. and then really to interesting 6 to okay is my gonna shoot for boat. and therefore, this is something that has a new dimension at 1st, but also fits into the way of russian president vladimir putin is waging this war to optimize the past. the 14 do some clicks it,

but most go it uses cave of sabotage. the defense minister claiming ukraine blew up the dam to prevent a russian offensive along the front line. due to the cave regime committed another terrorist crime that kind of car, jo electric time was blown or not. that was which led to the flooding of significant territories, supplemented especially somebody took a turn it from us so much. in slovakia, ukraine's allies had strong words for the kremlin nature. as chief blaming most goes invasion for the dance destruction, the destruction of the call of golf dom today, pitts house and so civilians at risk and cost of severe environmental damage. this is a very just act which demonstrates so once again, they're brutality over russia. also war in ukraine. stalsen bug said russian aggression was the stabilizing security. and pledge to further expand need

her support for ukraine. earlier i spoke to april, a hoarse wolf got deputy head of the office of the president of ukraine. he put the blame for the destruction on the damn, squarely on russia, the slow the steps of the aerial successful regions, looking the whole comp, our plan. let me get to the beginning, normally open aggressive march last year and all the time that was controlling the station was controlling the operation of the station you premium, especially so unfortunately, we're not even admitted to the station. so very natural gas of mind, the territory. oh, there's a whole above lab and who do need except to to see the uh, you know theres 2. you asked me about the reasons you probably use it, us the reasons to address and say, but not a single positive. same point crane would be uh, from the, from this for this type of aggressive act of

a terrorist. the territories slot yours for this in about 15000000000 cubic meters of what city are. so the wire so you know, there was the or the last in southern grace city or them and just to the environment delta the buyer and see decisions. but what is a very important deals of what does the damage in other areas develop security this what that was used to, to, to, to, to, to see the more or less in your brain. right. what does right for this was used for nuclear power plant. what do we get there? so it's only in the interest or asset to make this. and now the doors defensive because april side, because the optim oswell was origin immediately, but more to be seen in the future days. mr. so far as you may or may not have heard, the claimant, spokes person says that ukraine is responsible for this attack, that you, that you might have done it to cut off water supply to crimea. or to the best of my

knowledge of these are, is the water was most the only feed into the grain. you know, why scores, it's got supply and you know, it's a lot in the area or the left of us off of slash have some list which is to control the production. so whole city, east, you, you utilize the lives of people whom you come from, your comment, deliberate as you plan at the beginning of open the rest. but for us, for us, all those people always areas are you bringing people in your brain matters? we started to rescue on a vacation operations on the air has been solved by your premiums armed forces and buying premiums. well, what is what is going on on the territories which on hold on the guns? unfortunately, the years. uh well, this was the destruction of this the stand this which will come with it in any way

affect your military strategy on the ground. probably one of the reasons you asked me in the beginning of the interview, what was, what was the reason? it's probably been one of the reasons you know to distract the attention from what this plan allows or will you like these not to see the, you know, point to the plan resource planned notes in front of all kinds of events, a little bit distracted, incredibly, definitely to do what the plans will make under offensive. i'm definitely deliberate. and i want to uh, quote you the words off your client's defense. mit, excuse me, russia's defense minister who today said that your attempts as, as ukraine to, to launch it will stop the counter offensive, has been ported over the past 3 days. uh, could you just give us your side frontier? is that true? you know, look, commanded us and narrative them say excess. let me get to there are some narratives that they can capture your grass. so the 1st 305 this elaine raising. so i was on

this very tough decision to i wanna bring us back to, to the breach of the stab. and how is it, is that situation a facing, will potentially going to affect the supple region nuclear power plant from what we hear to promote definitely for a specialist, you will not have an immediate effect because yes, this is, there was part of the cooling system of this operation process by to see this year after the international institutions, instability, high a, to control the situation they're claiming that they have industry console this jason, what is going on on the products? welcome uh the to the this is of the efforts to the media to the consumers with jason. to me go see, get hold of the situation. but well, i think another to control is a freaking big problem with the media, with the global,

that sense of some of the explosions that often suitable either planning something like that might be played on is a pretty good plan on doing all that. and you saw that the goal of that mrs. wilcox, are you able to prevent future attacks on infrastructure like this? because this is not the 1st time we're seeing an attack on, on critical infrastructure such as the stand as well. just so one of this beam, you know, clubs on the coffee by territory was not consoled by you. great, you know, was like, it was flooded. i'm glad to say well before this is very difficult to do these, but them work with them on the web. the more support from the lessons days where gauge is the most powerful will be to start the comprehensive until it breaks the years fully already. so the only way to fully predict those stairs at after was actual process is to fully with the rest and serves from the surgery. all right,

and that is the view from kids this evening. thank you. to invest the whole 12 class deputy head office of the president of u. k. and we appreciate your time, sir. thank you. now do you have any wants to strengthen it's secure site to the ties with india. daily is the latest stop for defense minister bars, the stories on his to of the asia pacific. he's been using the trip to expand germany security rule in the region fall beyond its backyard. germany's defense minister received a warm welcome and daddy, as he met with his income to box raj, bouncing the story is on a mission to bolster military cooperation between the 2 countries. a defendant jeremy's presence in the pacific region of applying the a box. we are planning a big joint exercise with the indian forces in the indian ocean next year. these

are important examples to make clear, and dr. germany is present here and considers itself a partner in the pacific region to apply to fix on the lender here. and that a your but this meeting is also about the weapons. the story is met with representatives from the german alms, industrial, and deadly in depth lands to invest more than 5000000000 euros in more than i think it's sabrin feet. jeremy's defense minister has shown support for such a deal. the founding law negotiations are ongoing and the german arms industry as well placed in this race down. the point is a single, the german government supports it to as part of our strategic partnership. and as one of the world's largest armies, traditionally, it has been heavily dependent on brushing on supplies. but an increase in german involvement could reduce the defendants in the long run. as

a reminder of our top story here on dw k, then most of the world teasing each other or really not the major them in the russian controlled positive southern new brain. the officials in the area around the nova can hope that that advocate, a state of emergency evacuations are under way of residents, downstream and coming up next sunday. i mean use asia, how culture and young people are contributing to improve relations between south korea and japan. that's appears by energy i'll see at the top and excel by the nurse to us the ex wife listen to their stories.
