then obstructing investigators trying to recover them. if convicted, he could face years in prison. back in florida state that his home soil for donald trump and the place where on tuesday afternoon, he will appear before a miami towards the 1st boma us presidents to face federal criminal charges ready for trump survival. that is due around gulf results. a small group of supporters all giving up for another extraordinary chapter in the life of donald trump. i don't, i don't, i don't. i assume that we're here to barbara to slower losing our values. i think he's being indicted on the, on the wrong reason. he basically gave up the paper work. they call him dep logged on for a reason for the man who wants to win back the white house in 20. 24 is the republican

pick, the stakes, the high. he's facing dozens of charges for holding classified documents as his monologue at home in florida. if convicted, he could face he is in prison. and as is typical of the twice and peaceful and the presidents and the days since being indicted, he's been turning up the heat. the documents, all thing is a, which is a disgrace, should never. c happen, it's hurting our country. joe biden has 1850 boxes of documents. he's got documented china down. he's got documents at 10. he doesn't want anybody to get them. it's a disgrace. what's happening? the tension is already building in miami. ahead of drums, mainland, before a federal judge, thousands could defend, don't the city with security being based up around the quote's house. in

preparation we obviously believe in the constitution and believe that people should have the right to express themselves. we encourage people to be peaceful and in them demonstrating how they're, how they feel. and we're going to have the adequate forces necessary to ensure that this is now one shot to vote for donald trump, the united states. and what comes next could further divide the country and set the battle lines ahead of next year's presidential election. that's across to our us corresponding janelle dom alone who's in front of a federal court house in miami, where donald trump is due to appear today. janelle tell us more about the federal criminal charges he's facing and how strong a case the prosecution has here. claire, we are talking about

a $37.00, a legend fellow new charges $31.00 of which saw fall under the espionage act. so it's not just that he is elected to have held the on to hundreds of classified documents held onto them and securely showed them to on authorized parties. and the hindered investigators attempts to locate them. it's a that he, a legibly did so in such a way that may have endangered national security. now if you read the text, so the indictments, i'm sorry, you can hear some of the protesters uh, in uh, in the, in the background clear there are, they're all shouting from. but back to the indictment. they are talking about national security concern. so on the tax, it says the, the documents, detailed military and nuclear capabilities that the united states have. so this is no small thing. claire, the president had so much access and these allegations basically means that he may

have abused that access as president in terms of how strong are the prosecution's case is. it's worth noting about jack smith. the special council would not have brought these charges forward. if he did not feel that the case was especially strong, he had a difficult job to do here, getting the thirty's to prosecute. donald trump, the former president could have brought up allegations of political bias of interference in the political process. but the way he appears to have done it taught for all, for all records of, for all of metrics, he appears to have laid out his argument very well. his margin of error was very low, but he appears to have the succeeded so far. and at least laying out that argument . and that brings us, that brings us here to today in front of this federal courthouse in miami. yeah, these are serious charges with high stakes. can you tell us a little bit more about what we're expecting to see there is miami, the well, as we said,

donald trump is expected to appear here later he will be entering a side entrance of this federal courthouse. so not the front entrance. he will be frank, fingerprinted. he will probably not behind cost or there are no there will be no model shot taken of him. this is also the opportunity for him to see how he's going to plead. that plea is widely expected to be not guilty. he will be, uh, he will be up hearing alongside 2 of his lawyers as well as, as long time a lot well know to who himself is also facing charges. now i had to of today he had been calling on his supporters to descend upon miami. you heard a few of them earlier, i don't know how clearly they were shouting trump, but it's nowhere near the 1000 spot. the authorities were bracing themselves for. although of course, that situation can yet still develop. the closer it gets, the time that trump is expected to appear. yeah, we did hear some of those voices. and the reason the whole world is watching this

is trump, is currently the leading republican candidate for president. how could this affect his bid for the presidency? well, just as trump does, you know that he's very good at encouraging a persecution narrative. so he's clearly decided to see this crisis as an opportunity. he's use this trial, he's use this impending trial to say that i taught he is the subject of, of which funds and that the funds should be raised for him. he's use that to rally, support him on his face. but really, what this means is that the republican party has a decision i heard of it. will the distractions of these legal troubles be worth the be worth keeping on? seeing that it's still worth keeping on trump as the standard bearer of the party. we don't know that yet. we can't do that yet, but this is justin, the unprecedented territory for the country as

a whole. thank you so much for your reporting. that's dw janelle, to ron for us in miami, florida. we can bring you up to speed now with some other world news headlines. kosovo is a prime minister. i'll be in court. he has presented a plan to diffuse tensions in the surf majority north which includes fresh elections. classes broke out last month after ethnic albanian merits took office following local elections boycotted by serves dozens of peacekeepers and ethnic serbs were injured in the unrest to 4 people have died in rough seas on india's west coast. as the 1st i quote of the season approaches, cycling deep, our joy is forecast to hit the indian state of goods or right along with pockets on the southern send. profits by thursday, with wind speeds approaching 180 kilometers per hour. ukrainian officials say russian missile attacks in central ukraine have killed at least 10

people and wounded dozens more regional governor. so the dead were recovered from a 5 story residential building and a private warehouse in the city of peabody over night. air attacks were also reported in the heart of area and the capital key, where authorities say they were stopped by air defenses. and the assault follow claims by ukraine of successes in its counter offensive against russian forces. the smouldering aftermath of get another attack on ukrainian homes. missiles hit these apartments in the early hours of tuesday, engulfing the building and surroundings and flames. dozens of residents were injured, others killed. many we're trapped in the wreckage. when we got out from under the rubble, the 1st thing i saw were people who came out naked with children from neighboring houses where there was also destruction. people were bringing slippers, bathrobes,

water blankets for the children, asking how can we help him to come to us? that's the kind of people we have. several other buildings and cree very. we also had a far, as he's described as a massive missile attack on president. below him is zalinski is home, city is resident survey, the damage elsewhere ukrainian troops claimed to be pushing back russia's occupying forces to keep the seas. it's counter offensive. has recap, should villages in the nets and separation of regions which russia illegally enix last year. troops say this 1st, which was filmed in the town of storage event in done, its rushes military claims to have repelled ukraine's attempts to advance in the area. we rushed to the bottoms our fears,

but our movement is under way and that is crushed out of one of the enemy's losses are exactly what we need on. although the weather in these days is on february boat and that's the res complicates our tasks. nevertheless, the strength of our soldiers here, so we solved and am grateful to each and everyone who's currently incumbent to everyone who supports or if somebody gates in the respective ways improve. i mean, maybe for me, this keeps claims have yet to be independently verified as russian attacks on their homes continue reports of ukrainian progress on the battlefield, a wealth from signs of the least violent future. so for more on ukraine's counter offensive, i'd like to bring in mike martin award studies senior fellow at kings college london. thank you so much for joining us. i know your day was here again, high ukraine has been claiming and for mental advances in its counter offensive house and some substantial. do you think these games really are i think the

ukrainian progress over the last week has been pretty impressive. i'm. ready the guy, not the games, as some russian defensive lines. the been 6 months in the making, in some areas are, you know, 5 or 6 layers deep of tanks and dragons teeth and then mine fields and changes with the russian soldiers and, and so as well as the fact that you claims to be quite careful with his soldiers, by some accounts, they've liberated more territory in the last 10 days. then the russians took in the hold of 2023, which is is uh so i $22.00. yeah, 2023 on the site, which is fairly impressive. another interesting because that seems to be that they appear to be focusing on different parts of ukraine. do not see and not for region of regions by moods. that doesn't seem to be a single point of focus. do you see that as part of the strategy?

oh absolutely. so you cranes pushing forward on 3 front sides south and zachary just was talk mack documents, which she mentioned and then also in, in the southeast just to the west of a town called linda. and the reason is doing that too, is because it can advance on, on these 3 axis, and it causes the instructions, the russians. and it means that at some point the russians have to make a decision about which is the king you creating an offensive. once they've decided that is this particular one, the cranes would obviously reinforce another one. we haven't seen or heard of the ukrainian forces or west and equipment deployed yet. so that's the next stage really. okay, so an attempt to extract russian efforts. how strong is the russian position at this point in the war? i mean, they've had months to dig in for this ukranian counter offensive. and on tuesday, the russian defense ministry published a video showing what it said was a leopard, 2 tank that had been captured from ukrainian forces or so i think we would

expect to see ukrainian losses. and you know, that was a catchy you were talking about there, but now the videos on social media, all of some of the lesson donated equipment. a destroyed with this is what we'd expect. you know, these russian defensive lines have been 6 months in the making. and some of them are really quite deep and have several layers to them. um, that says there are other areas of the front where the defensive lines are not as complex. maybe they're only 2 lines deep. and that's possible. ukraine is doing bible as they're going these 3 funds, some of those a less well defended the more than others. and so it just gives you kind options for the future. and where do you see um, less well fortified, defensive lines that ukraine could launch its counter attack against the russians as well. i think the counselor offensive is going on at the moment. this is phase one of its, um, i think around butler is a particularly interesting area because the russians took that. i mean the very

recently, so they haven't had a chance yet. turn that into a properly defended area. i think the area south of to o'clock is, is very, very well decided because it's the most obvious line results and then runs a 100 hours somewhere in between the 2. and the defense is that less deep and less expensive than they are. i told mike, thank you so much for that analysis. that's mike martin from kings college funding . really appreciate your time. i think he said as well, the destruction of the nova can hold down and ukraine has caused severe flooding along the new pro river and areas near the black sea. the region is home to some of the country's most fertile agricultural land, and many farms are threatened by the flooding, dw correspondence on your phone. the car sent us this report from a village in the middle life region. the village of bob little money on the go. in southeastern ukraine. it was bombarded heavy leaves all still but occupying russian

forces, leaving mines and explosives everywhere. no southern flooding has severed bubble supplies, and cutoff entire areas. the destruction of the gulf of them has affected police is much further away. sure. in the michel live region, meet agricultural area, water levels and who lets river have risen dramatically. and that has an immediate impact on farms here. there's only one way to get around the village, the, the, the that was awesome. the, the water smells chemical. it's really bad and there could be dead fish and dogs. here the fields were fertilized and not everything's in the water level. the russians didn't get us. but the floods didn't or those can have the appropriate yvonne's father by the says many people didn't believe they would be impacted

because the deb break occurred nearly a 150 kilometers away. but no one was prepared. this isn't the only home and farm to be supplement. ratio hands which are single to most of the beans to 100 take the fields have disappeared. his bobby sunflower and wheat out the some where the polluted in charlottesville has transformed the landscape. the loss of his crops isn't his only worthy measure, but we hop in from us. we know what it is to lose everything and start again. i tell you if, if the ground will be contaminated because of a lot of chemicals, diesel valuable machine, oil will have a different kind of tragedy. you might them and design from something that does. it's a major concern for small farmers like monday of wave would be not as we speak at the top, we know how much work was involved. we can plan to this with our own hands. it's old on one. and one moment the former teacher mainly grows vegetables for her own

family. she and the husband own make. see the southern floods probably meant many fall most couldn't get the machinery and farm chemicals to dry ground in time 0 for sure. for the skin, for just when you get in the water, there must be chemicals in there that could affect the eat meat. a deep ground will be useful water maybe so you put it. my biggest concern is the oldest motor was into the ground and the whole day. and after that it will be impossible to use this way. also, it's not just tutoring, but even to more shar, closing tonight it will be a disaster. what's to be dealt with this says the plate of contamination has along the local authorities. this unit was set up in april last year to monitor the impact of the war on the environment. now the floods of the focus quarter for those of this that the insured, it's the nightmare. yeah. mind and this is all over when the water receives and the long term, the situation will get worse, you remove the 6 and will there are places with symmetry so flooded. so no pets

similar to yours as well. no one can really say for sure what the consequences could be. this causes that us the cable to the boston unknown, creates a part of life here, like so many settlements near the frontline, bob, blue, muddy. and if god has suffered waves of tragedy and sufficed, well, i'd like to extend a very warm welcome to antony enough for you all an adverb cultural economist with more than 2 decades of experience in the ukrainian food sector. thank you so much for joining us. i'd like to ask you 1st about how seriously this war has affected ukraine's agricultural sector. what has the impact of russia's invasion, been? of course, 1st of all, the rest of the invasion to ukraine affect the global, who seek to it to the ukraine. was able to produce an export much less than a previously for example,

in 2022 where you can produce, just as since you made a last week and 15000 tons last oh, i'm sorry. medium tons. less according compared to 2021. and consequently in 2022, it's for the 11, you know, the last week the export or didn't change much due to, to attend installs that be had from the previous year. because the blacks, the ports of our lot of the exports of this things. one is telling me that i'm doing, but this year we expect to explore approximately the only time you know, we look more than 19, emulate until 4. and now with the them destruction it will be at least the bottom, you know, the song of grain last year. this is only on the some of game. and you said you

excess. yeah. explain for viewers who don't know the ins and outs of this. and in practical terms, what about the war has been getting in the way of production and that exporting, what does it look like? because it says failed. so 1st of all, a lot of last been damaged a lot of mines and also the logistics was interrupted. so even farmers were able to produce, they were not able to see fit and also the cost of production increase and the price of fuel price all pads, which allows us access to this invoice as well. so of course of, of, up to 22 percent of our culture lands is a good by the damage. so it is not the use of all of the culture and been decreased. i'll give you a higher you mentioned also the cut down. yeah,

i wanted to ask specifically how the destruction of this damn has affected the situation to this effect. it's a really badly cultural stuff. so of course, this is a ecological disaster. this is my, my as happens, charles and so many 10 prizes. but the culture of what it was was a surprise at frontier top soil layer. as for now, approximately $10000.00 hackers of andrew cultural lands on the rise of if you're somebody, each of them would be destroyed completely from florida. as a result of the russian theories at, on the whole, hydro electric power plant and bowls of several times more on the left bank of the region, which is now under occupation. those are lit up to $25000.00 pack, or a lot of territory will become completely unsuitable for you to call chapel at

least twice the year. but this is only talking about destroyed a lab a besides, the irrigation system is destroyed. that disaster interrupted the water supply to city bombs, field education system, even deeper patrol the freezing temperature solar region in 2021. this system provided with jason for up to 600000 pastor from the beach resort. was that the ball was putting me down to an upgrade, an oil propes to be of worst about one and a half feet on dollars and know how to do to the destruction of the them you know, do without what are the last, well, 94 percent of vacation system in the 1st or 74 percent of the freezer irrigation system and it said 2 percent of new birth control regions. and this will

cause decrease in deals of the car. for example, if you're talking about oil throw, it will decrease a hardwood a is wise and even will talk about grain, it will decrease the heart was $2.00 times. it just your are. these are really serious numbers. i'm afraid. that's all we have time for now, but i want to thank you so much for taking the time to share your expertise with us as agricultural economist and antonia for you all. come many thanks. thank you very much. now to some other news headlines, bulgaria has declared a state of emergency after torrential rains in the north west of the country. roads were destroyed in houses, schools and official buildings flooded. large parts of the affected areas were left without power and although there were no immediate reports of casualties, it is the 2nd time in 10 days. that floods have struck the region and the state of montana, 1st of its kind court case over climate change is about to begin. 16,
