the the, this is dw deers, live in from berlin tonight, rochelle launch is a wave of missile strikes on the eastern ukrainian city of chrome, a tourist you creating authorities say that several people died. many more were injured with rockets with a crowded shopping district in the city center. we'll have the latest also coming

up tonight. the wagner mercenary boss, you'll get a for goshen, is now with his new home bella. bruce larissa is leader today confirming that the mercenary chief is in the country. it is days of speculation about his whereabouts and a new report. 2 shows. nations are failing to hold deforestation its authors and say the planet is losing an important weapon in its arsenal. for fighting against global war, the breed golf is good to have you with this on this tuesday. and we begin with breaking news from ukraine where at least 2 people have been killed more than 20 others injured in a russian missile attack on a popular shopping area. it happened in the city of chrome, a tourist getting the don't ask region. we understand that the pizza restaurant

took a direct hit. a search and rescue operation is now. we understand to be under way. so we will try to get more information. the lab report from ukraine in just a moment. we're now to be able to ruse the leader there. alexander lucas. shank has confirmed that the head of the wagner mercenary group, guinea for goshen, has arrived in the country for goshen agreed to leave russia for bella. bruce, when he called off his rebellion last weekend, russian president vladimir fujen, meanwhile, is seeking to reassert his authority. he announced and official pro been to provision at his group as he thinks the russian troops today for preventing what he called a civil war in rush. ladies, each playing the pots of rushes, commander in chief. this was a display of vintage, latham and boots and the strong man to lead to paying tribute to members

of his military, national guard and security services. in the lobby surroundings of the kremlin. leading a moments of silence for the russian admin killed by wagner fighters and casting the minutes in every zip bulleted module must go as a success with the russian military and assigned at the countries result. you defended the constitutional order lives, security, and freedom of our citizens, saved our motherland from a peoples and effectively stopped a civil war. you acted clearly and hermione is lee in a difficult situation. and then later in

a meeting with the russian soldiers came a pointed remark about the private telling me at the heart of this speech they did spending is the temperature of the machine and the input. i want you all to know if i place a group of support for the entire wagner group was fully provided by the state from the defense ministry by the women from the state budget that we fully funded this group who missed a few months either way. it's a good the kremlin has dismissed suggestions that president putin on his top brass had been weekends by the book and it pushed on the capital. despite him giving immediately to the fight as you occupied the russian city on saturday and the value . and he previously had vile to crush. they are now free to join that boss and bach and his found that you have get any precaution in bella, bruce the malibu. she and lead to confirming his arrival into the country on tuesday after early outlining how he broke a deal to ends. the mutiny somewhere close to the correct. yep. one you,

the most dangerous thing is i understand it was not the situation itself, but how it could develop better. this was what with most dangerous. yep. and i also understood that a cruel decision was made to eliminate pretty goshen. it signed it that way. reading between the lines. yep. so i suggested to pretend not to rush this. it's not like santa lucas shank also told military officials in minsk developers can benefit from wagner has come back to experience, comments that will no doubt concern ukraine and it's western allies. a speculation grows about the grades as future, and so i'm what it does next. every more i'm joined now by john the legend, or he's a journalist and researcher. he has a book on the wagner group coming out next year. john, it's good to have you with this. what is the future of the wagner group? does it have one as well, thank you for asking me. uh, that's

a great question. i feel like i'm writing the book in real time at the moment and you know, to, to their community, we simply don't have enough information at this time, nor do i necessarily think that if he goes in himself knows exactly what the future of wagner group will be um, as, as uh, with recently stated, we know that he has arrived in bella re, i don't think that we have much evidence for who else within his organization has the right. so there's still a lot of questions to be answered on whether or not he's going to remain in management the company boy. or can you imagine wagner continuing to exist with pre goshen in bella? roost and without a significant number of soldiers for hire with it? i mean, is that even possible? i mean, i think it depends uh, geographically in terms of how this breaks down. um, it seems fairly likely that wagner, in those loyal to wagner, don't have uh,

the feature and ukraine at the moment. but that being said, wagner also has built significant infrastructure over time in several countries in africa with the central african republic, the sudan, molly and, and so this type of infrastructure or, or this type of these relationships, the bottom, your thoughts over time are very difficult to replace, so when i mean it does carry out a very important role for russia, particularly in north africa, africa, the middle east, in terms of counter terrorism, but also in securing a precious minerals for russia. it can't continue to function without at playing a role in the war in ukraine. yes, i mean i, i think 1st of all we've, we have to see cautiously not necessarily k,

but to the recently said today and face value that the russian government has basically been been supporting financially. wagner group, the days that he's mentioned between may uh, 2022 and made the 2023 overlap quite nicely with the invasion of ukraine. and when wagner 1st appeared, um and uh, so that those figures could actually just be for ukraine specifically. and, and wagner certainly has, uh, several uh, businesses, business ventures active in africa, which we believe to be uh, gaining uh, profitability at this moment. mm hm. um, let's come back to pre goshen. a lot of people are surprised that wasn't me uprooting is allowing him to, to move to the roofs. as a matter of fact, we heard from the bill of lucy and leader to david. she is convinced or tried to convince food to not to have the wagner boss killed. are you surprised that food is

allowing him to move to bella roots and he's still a part of some story lot as yeah, absolutely. i mean, yes and no. i think uh and every time we've under estimated pedagogy and in his career is ma, uh, and he has consistently seem to push through different red lines that we're outside or is of the surgery tend to project on to the machine. so i'd love to predict his punishment because ultimately he seems to be uh, navigating the space in a way that no one has before. yeah it's, it's a very good point. and in your research, i mean, you're the, you're, you know, what is it has going on? you probably have more insight than anyone else does on into, for what promotion is thinking. he is really more

a man of the people that blind to be uprooted. and he has a very humble beginnings at an entrepreneur, a hot dog business that became successful. he's ever been a real soldier either. so, i mean, there's this pope marie of, of, of roles that he's had. and if he appears to be rather popular with the public, at least that's what it looked like this weekend. yeah, i mean, i think he, he, i, yeah, i think it's, it's safe to say that he certainly has quite a bit of per rosemont. he certainly knows how to run a logistics and contracting company in a way that a few people have done in the past. and, and he's a very smart individual folks who i've talked to who, who i've worked with him before. i would say that sometimes he over estimates his own intelligence at the same time, it can consider yourself to be a genius as well, obviously to get him into trouble. but that doesn't take away from the fact that

he's incredibly creative. i always finding opportunities to take advantage of a certain business or, or opportunity to raise as i'm status within russia. the degree to which he's popular, it is difficult to say uh, you know, pictures can say a 1000 words in the future and people in the rest of the, you're giving a good bye to, to wagner. pretty good. and doesn't necessarily mean that the vast majority of the population likes him, but i think there are probably many more rushing to find him in the detestable, in a way uh, is use of flash. and it gets kind of rather rude as features on social media. but i think it's safe to so assume that the even larger than life personality and in a way that it seems difficult to to make them into a martyr at this point for,

for food. yeah, that, that's a very good point. and it remains to be seen how much of a threat he is in could become moving forward. we will certainly find out john legend or it's good to have you on. we appreciate your valuable insights and look forward to reading your book. thank thanks for having or so you want to go back now to our top story breaking news from ukraine where at least 2 people have been killed more than 20 others injured in a russian missile attack on a popular shopping area. it happened in the city of come a tourist in the don't ask region, a pizza restaurant we understand. took a direct hit, a search and rescue operation is now under way. we want to go now to our very own init connelly. he is in the don't ask region of eastern ukraine for us. he is under curfew restrictions right now. nick, what more can you tell us about this missile strike of what have you been able but

facts and you've been able to gather for? it seems like those casualty numbers offset to climb. unfortunately, from your local you already reporting 3 dead end of the 20 wounded. this was kind of prime time when kind of tools quit sheet to kind of miss persistent just to the front line continue to place phillips to government administration. well, lots of logistics happens where families come to visit them, knocked on to the survey in the military for a day or 2 as best buy. and this was the kind of central area where the supermarket is where the cafe is off. i think that cafe many times myself in the past uh, just the last couple of months ago. and this was 7 30 in the evening. unfortunately, local time, just around the home before curfew. and so that would have been thrown good people . if you look at the image instead of doing around, so it just means it's a big room and a hotel, a complex 13 next to that was destroyed early on in the war. but it seems like this was an attempt to guess. yeah, intimidate people. it was a,

we believe the ballistic missile s at $300.00 scuse me. some of the kinds of comments was, gets basically every night. but the only catching thing most of these look, it's a live in the middle of the night about midnight. so you can kind of basically set your watch by the we saw types become just drum is not enough for the 1st time in a while. they are so good. and so the, just as people were in the streets and, and what we're seeing these pictures we see right now, the dramatic, and we're not talking about this area having any military significance are we? i think some of this will be because they can use a sent you that is too far away for artillery to take pictures to easily tell them to move with those kind of s 300 resolves, which are abundant in rushes supplies. these all kind of expensive themselves that are difficult to produce and the rest of the scrambling to produce with the kind of sections busting the chips and stuff advocate from outside the country. but i do need to say about psychological impacts. so there is no united states that

ukraine's at defense is almost enough to defend every city. there might be enough for 600, like here for these, but certainly it's based on the tools cuz this guy has to pretty much i'm protected to large extent. and they'll say to me, i have thought that they might be able to work for me. it should come on the top right. people maybe also jealous, replace, frequented by lots of depress, trying to report about this for locals. so i think you're any kind of big mission people who are there crowds is unfortunately target, and that is, this is the most important part of ukraine. stay at home, keep the heads down and doug, go about a large group. they know that anything is visible from scott from the charge that goes to target. unfortunately, that is the case that these may connelly with the eastern line from eastern ukraine . nick, thank you and state sick. all right, here's a look. know it's some of the other stories from around the world. former us president donald trump could be heard discussing secret state documents and acknowledging that he had not declassified them in an audio recording from the year

2021. it's being cited as evidence in the current case against trump has called it in exoneration. earlier this month, trump pleaded not guilty to miss handling us state secrets, sierra leone president, julia motto, deal has been re elected to serve a 2nd term, the west african countries. the lake tul commission has confirmed the president secured more than 56 percent of the votes. the opposition has disputed the vote, tallying accusing the electoral dimension to fabricating the results of the germany's foreign minister on the bare boxes in south africa for torrents. addressing rushes more on ukraine, she called for a stop to the bombings at a joint press conference to day. with her south african counterpart, thereby said that the wagner march on moscow last weekend showed president vladimir

fujen was destroying his own country. the south african foreign minister said that the rebellion would not affect efforts by african leaders to negotiate peace. germany wants to south africa to stop. it's a neutral stance towards the w as nina has is traveling with the german foreign minister. she sent us for assessment of the visit. so for germany in south africa, see each other as very important partners when it comes to tackling global issues such as the fight against the climate crisis, such as the attempt to get towards a more green economy, adjusted economy. more equality also for women. but a lot of trusts was damaged last year when south africa refused to join west and support of ukraine and did not condemn russia's actions in ukraine, quite as openly as the west would have hoped. so this is a message coming out of the bab sneezing with a south african counterpart to you today at least towards being resumed. again,

at least one side is willing to listen to the other. the positions might differ, but there is a joint willingness to bridge those differences. gemini says it's support, south africa's attempts of helping to bring about peace. now working on these documents on these concrete piece plans is already something that's gemini, says it is looking forward to doing together with south africa. maybe that will help overcome some of the differences that last year. so between those 2 countries, that, that was the w need to has reporting their south africa's claim that neutrality. it had certainly come under fire, not least after us claims pretoria supplied arms to russia, presidency. remind me of folks that has launched an investigation into those claims . recently he visited both russia and ukraine on a mediation mission, an african piece mission to russia. earlier this month,

but delegation of 7 africa nation was led by south africa trying to persuade vladimir putin that the ukraine bull must. and before they got bad, they visited ukraine to plead for peace. but with no need to keep no moscow winning to budge this visit to accompany sniffles. the west is already suspicious of south africa's claim that it's playing a new to role in the conflict. in february pretoria team dumped with most go in beijing to whole joint naval exercises. 3 months later, a us diplomatic queues, south africa, of delivering arms and ammunition to this sanctioned russian ship. south africa has had

a long friendship with russia. most goes top diplomat sanjay lab prof visited the country in january relations, dates back to when the soviet union helped south africa's freedom fighters invest, struggle against apartheid that history is part of the reason pretoria refuses to condemn moscow for the invasion of ukraine. but it's not just south africa where russia has been cultivating relations. moscow is trying to extend its influence across the african continent. and it isn't just about politics. it's been giving minute 3 support on selling equipment and ons in return for access to energy and natural resources. russian. musson res, including the infamous voc, no group have also been operating in several countries on the continent. they

include molly libya, sudan and central african republic. and despite recent events in russia, it doesn't look like countries such as south africa will change their relations with moscow any time soon. a study has found the world for us continue to disappear at and the warming rate, and that's despite international pledges to stop and even reverse the deforestation . almost half of the loss is happening in brazil is the president has set new goals, but there are concerns that they might not be obtained. a this patch of lads may not look very tropical, but it's actually part of the world's largest rain forest. seems like these have become more and more common in the brazilian, amazon millions of hector's race. donnelly agreed to make space for cattle pastures and so fields, among other things, almost half of the tropical primary forest last last year was in brazil. that's

according to a new study by the world resources institute, a global research organization. the report found that on a global level reinforce lost an area of roughly the size of switzerland and 2022. that's 10 percent more than the year before. and it means we're rapidly giving up on one of our best tools to combat climate change. because tropical forests absorb massive amounts of c. o. 2. in brazil, environmental experts blamed the last 4 years of soaring deforestation on former president charitable. so now his administration weakened the agencies monitoring environmental crimes by shrinking their budgets and pushing out stuff during the last you, 4 years a, i'm a zone was a place without law. but really, matthew la desilva, who took office this year once to enter legal deforestation in the amazon by 2030. and he has a good track record when he was president 20 years ago. his government reduced

deforestation. and this reinforce by 80 percent, it expanded protected areas and strength and authorities to crack down on these spots. now let's administration has further developed that's action plan. what was your plan? the plan is to relentlessly combat crimes such as the illegal occupation of public lands. mine will be logging illegal, hunting and fishing and indigenous territories and to give environmental protection aries to the amazon as a whole. but challenges remain. not lisa, powerful agri, business block, and congress that could hold back new environmental laws. i find this very hard to be reached at 0. you're the 1st 7 years and on the other hand is working to set the initials goals and people around the world will feel the climate of consequences if these goals are met. well i'm joined

now by carlos know, bring a senior scientist for the university itself. halloween, brazil. he's also the co chair of the science panel for the amazon. there's nobody, it's good to have you with this. the deforestation of the amazon rain forest in brazil. if it continues at the current rate, what will that mean for our hopes of mitigating climate change? yes, it will be very dangerous because the amazon is very, very close to the tipping point. we call tipping point or something. and as a sion the tipping 14, which most of the amazon between 50 and 70 percent, we'll turn into an open canopy degree that ecosystem. if that happens, you're going to lose within 30 to 50 years, more than $250000000000.00 tons of carbon dioxide the most effective greenhouse gas that we are releasing to the atmosphere. so that's why we

really need to stop before the station. all of this or not only, but as your all of the amazon to get you ready for station for stupid degredation, is increasing tremendously in the last decade. we have also to get to 0 for supervision. and also while the fires just a moment, we have to miss that very if i could, if i, because we just ask you how much time is there this tipping point, how much time do we have left? if, if nothing changes, how much time do we have left before it's too late? yes. if we continue deforestation, and also we continue global warming because global warming is inducing, much more frequency of your drugs, like 20052012015162020 in the amazon into a to use for severe drugs. then it's mostly 2030 years before we reach

the tipping point. okay. what do you think has to happen right now? realistically, what can be done right now too slow to stop deforestation as well. you know, the 1st 5 months of this year, 2023 deforestation rates and the present and amazon has decreased by 30 percent. and the end, the really this book may, june, july, august, september are the most with the highest deforestation rates. as so, we have to see whether government rulers will meet to then to get to slow down, deforestation we will be affected, it seems to be going in the right direction. the same is happening columbia and also in other i'm also in our country, so perhaps towards 2023. we will be, we'll see the lowest deforestation rates if okay, years stuff the and so that's really necessary. mr. carlos,

nobody with the international science council in itself. how that unfortunately we're out of time, but we appreciate you sharing your valuable insights tonight. thank you. thank you . this is a reminder of our top story at this hour. ukrainian officials saying at least 2 people have been killed in a rush and this will strike on the eastern city of chroma. towards more than 20 others were injured. rescue words are racing to locate people who may still be trapped under the roof. you're watching dw news, i'll be back at the top of the hour with more buildings followed by the day. hope to see you then the
