the i was a metal cutter. i didn't know what has the best now i know the never ending story of asbestos starts june 21st on d. w. the . this is the w news. live from berlin. presidents, a lot of mirrors alone stay confirms ukraine's counter offensive is underway. the landscape says counter offensive operations are taking place, fund refuses to go into details. phoned to crane and russia, say that there's been increased finding along the front line. also coming up.

donald trump is facing his most serious legal trouble so far. the u. s. department of justice on valve the indictment against the former president over his the legend mishandling of secret documents and for columbia and children are found a live after 40 days in the jungle. they went missing after surviving a plane crash which killed their mother and the other adults on board the mariana evans team. it's good to have you with us ukrainian presents, let them hear. zalinski has confirmed the counter offensive operations against russian forces in ukraine are underway. so lensky made the statement that a joint press conference with canada is prime minister justin true, joe, who is in here on an unannounced visit at all for his part rushes present. vladimir

putin has already claimed that ukraine offensives in the past few days have failed with both keys and moscow reporting details of intense fighting and ukraine's. a parisian region will have more on that in a moment. but 1st, let's hear once soleski had to say earlier in the day to color show, which is because interesting that pollutant spoke about counter offensive. it's important that russia always feels that they do not have much time left. in my opinion, no more. you don't counter offensive and defensive options all taking place in ukraine for easy at what stage. i will not same detail virtual cranium i make you start and i believe that we will definitely be much i see that. so we'll go through school success for some analysis. i spoke to security analyst, i'm a to us, and i'm also, and she told us more about ukraine's counter offensive to what i mean from the

information that we have, which is very patchy. it is its coming sort of kias i to there are at least the areas where the ukrainians are, are sending their forces in grades and number starts in the area. is that for each or to the style of or the issue? uh then uh, also in the areas around the car. no, no see car which is uh to the west in the western fringes. so they don't. yes. well last i know it's in the areas around where there have be not probably some, some important advances. so for at least at 1.4 kilometers and the fighting around um, uh, in the areas are in the western parts of a separate easier are very intense. uh, it is not here. how far ukrainians have managed to move further south. there were reports that they had a sort of monitors to bridge the 1st line of defense this front. then there are

varies from fortifications as i got to are sort of uh, present or further south. so i think there is a very intense area or confrontation around uh for the, to the east. uh, ukrainian. send it to, oh so how do i sound a bit? uh, not, not to a massively bunch of we have to remember. gotcha. uh the defensive lines are very, very strong. but we've also seen some reports by military bloggers who said that they saw german and even us tanks on the battlefield in recent days. and also some claims from those bloggers at these tanks. at least a number of them have been destroyed. are these reports credible that? when i think that the destruction of, of, of, of some different tags is probably a correct term, the disease i'm driving these is also correct. i think that the base has to be expected. we can do margin accounts on counter offensive,

or piece of base cage without any loss of media, tre, equipment. i think this is a nature whole fair and you know, i think we shouldn't. we shouldn't be surprised. and also what results are saying is that these kind of have a way for all from western major tons of have the advantage of helping the crew to survive even when they're under attack. so this is quite important because i think, you know, saving lives, right? especially i, you know, maybe a trip or somebody which also then come up participate jargon, you know, proration cc same brand new front. so i think we're shouldn't be too worried. i think what is very important is that, you know, your pm countries continue in the provision of mimicry support to ukraine on that there is a sort of, i mean, just through a miniature industrial system in place and so forth. i sort of convey ever but does that constantly replenish it? you know, you're crying in las vegas. i think we cannot operate, tell me that your finance will not be able to operate effectively if they have are

limited. find the number of, of the equipment. i need to know that more time is coming. all right, that was done for a 2nd. i'm also from king's college london. thank you so much for your analysis. let's get to check now. some of the other stories making news this our a tale in special forces landed aboard a cargo ship to rescue the crew. after on identified passengers were found on board with knives, marines, board of the vessel off the coast of naples. after the captain put out a call for help, the ship was sailing from turkey to france. well, in france, a man suspected of stabbing for toddlers has been charged with attempted murder to pensioners were also wounded in the attack. it happens on thursday in the southeastern town of all c. authorities save the victims are no longer in a life threatening conditions or former us president donald trump is making his 1st public appearance since being indicted on 37 federal accounts

including violating the espionage act. like a rose has not stopped him from hitting the campaign trail at the republican convention in columbus. georgia. trump is still the frontrunner for his parties. nomination for the 2024 presidential election. and he insist that he's innocent. and the victim of political attacks lead by president joe biden, department of justice was a more we can now speak to the w, washington correspondent, media, and a customer say, i get to see you. so bring us up to date with wants. and donald trump has been saying, well, basically he's cooling this indictments and assess, remind everybody is quite a lengthy one. it's almost 50 pages, not the legends that he didn't just take. documenting took a very highly classified documents relating to the security of the united states. and its allies of nuclear information,

what kind of response the us and its allies would have this, they were to be attacked. so this is very sensitive information. indeed a, basically what he's saying is that this is all a hoax. he's referring back to previous to indictments, where he says in was actually a little fabricated at he is calling the department of justice corrupt he is saying that basically they're not just going off to him. they are going off to you. that's what he's telling the crowd, and that he's standing between the ordinary citizens, the conservatives in this country. unfortunately, coals is a corrupt government. so he is in top form. this is the usual trump speak. the interesting thing as he is still on stage is whether he will actually go into any specifics in any details because in the past he might have to incriminate himself by being on the record in the media space. it keeps saying that yes,

he had the documents that wants to be classified as so this is something that where his lawyers were having a lot of headaches and just no kidding co incidence. that 2 of them have resigned off of this last indictment to be fed. the site is that now that it's moved to florida, and this means that they didn't want to represent them anymore, but technically they could have done so. so it is getting very tricky indeed. for donald trump on his legal team, let me say that you mentioned those previous indictments. so how does these new charges compare to the last time we saw a trump in court as well? the one previous indictments related to hoss money payments. that's kind of more of an accounting. that's a civil indictment. this is now a federal crime that he's accused of and that is quite something else. it's a story because the 1st time that a former president is actually indicted for a criminal and in the allegation there at the same time at this is really

at the young and what anybody had expected in terms of the scope of what he's accused of those photographs included showing the classified documents the lessons, the being stored in both rooms in mar, logo in florida. and donald trump is trying to turn this into really a matter of phase as he has done in the past. and the polls do prove that she has about a 3rd of republicans who will follow him no matter what the big question is, can he expand on that? can he make it a matter of face? can he spin this narrative that all of this is just about the election interference in 2024? really a will. some conservatives lose patience with him, and then look further field for other candidates, but he does still have a commanding lead with more than 50 percent in the opinion polls and with only wrong desantis anywhere near hovering around the 20 percent lock. that's the from florida governor. so um,

this could either go go either way for donald trump at this moment in time. you say that thank you so much for that. that was me. say that customer reporting from washington d. c. thanks you again. all right, let's turn our attention to columbia. now we're for children who went missing last month after a plane crash over the amazon forest had been found a live. the children who come from an indigenous community, survived for 40 days in the jungle on their own. a massive rescue operation was conducted by the army and volunteers after the plane crashed back in may. it's a story of survival for the ages. for children, rescued from the amazon jungle after a massive search efforts arriving by on the medical plane in bogota, they'll soon be re united with the grandparents. they made that model because me, i couldn't believe it that way, but the leader did call to me again this had gone down,
