the the it has been almost one week since a video went viral, showing a french police been shooting a 17 year old teenager at close range. he died, been in there, france has been on fire ever since waves of violent protest accusations of racism among police clashing with calls for law and order. a powder keg. the french know all too well. a tragic days of i broke off in berlin. this is the day the we have seen the true face of the rioters that of assessments, the orders that they wanted to murder, my wife,

and our 2 young children in their sleep. and turn them a life by trying to burn down our house. the basement, the residents want to live what they liked, the republic they want to bring up the children with equal opportunities. democracy itself is under attack. the one that is how good we wouldn't let anyone stab their public also, it coming up ukraine's counter offensive. dw big connelly on the front lines tonight as close as it gets. this is the village of east coach, then what's left of it? one of a handful of places ukraine forces of re taken in recent weeks from life is so dangerous. here is one of the few places, no one's coming back to being out in the open. visible drones is risky of

the for to our viewers watching on cbs in the united states, into all of you around the world. welcome. we begin the day in france. we are 6 nights of a violent protests have given way to night to crowds of citizens calling for call. it has been almost one week since the 17 year old. the health manager was shot and killed by police outside of paris as he tried to drive away from a traffic stop. the hell was of algeria in milwaukee and descent, his death in the eyes of many like him. the latest prove of systemic racism within french law enforcement. with some 45000 police officers were deployed as groups of teenagers, vandalized, and set fire to buildings in with a 200 pounds across the country. with today,

french president macro and met with the mirrors of those towns, the initial outrage over the death of a teenage boy fading for now replaced by calls for calm and appeals to wall in order. we have more now with this report. outside paris city, whole city council members held a peaceful protest against the recent and rest in france. the mayor sees the lack of solidarity in society. is that more equal than you solve? we are here to condemn the violence against property and people without any reservation to put it. nothing can justify violence. love utilize across from citizens got out in front of town whole so, so the, the everything matches among them the mayor of a paris, up at whose house had been attacked. his wife and child were injured while fleeing the scene. in the eastern city across the french interior minister inspected the damage on sunday night. the few classes,

but so far more than 3000 people have been arrested. to me, this is the average age of those the rest of this 17 as well. but some of them who set fines or tax politicians for age 1213. i think we have to ask ourselves about their families and parents' responsibility because it's not the police. the oldest states problem to so when a 12 year old set to school on fire, they do the program because i know if i'll do something and so you go to almost 300 cities and towns i've experienced violent protests. president macro has invited may, is affected areas to talk some tuesday to assess the causes of the riots. a cause for an end to the violence came over the weekend from the ground from a rough night, and the 17 year old who was killed by police for for more now i'm joined by folks. i are the all low in paris. so she's a writer, a journalist, an activist, and in the past week,

she has found herself explaining to the world in english what is happening inside france and why we're calling you. it's good to have you with this and to night the, the shooting death of no hills is being described by some, as frances george floyd moment. is that an accurate comparison? so i think the comparison is not really x rays because it sounds like e, like if it was the 1st time that france was, that sense was facing an issue, a foot is butare to you. that's was fueled by racism. and it's the 1st time 18 years ago, he's what, which is a cd in december of a car is a 2 teenagers who are 15 and seventy's nowhere chased by decrease one the reason and it died during that the dream that chasing because that to confusion the post issues and i sure that this 3 weeks of uprising spread all over the country. so

that was not the 1st time. and you know, if we go back to history overdue for like the kids, you can find every 5 years a waiver uprising for the death of one young person of color, you know, who put in a poor neighborhood, you know, in a separate name. it's around the neighborhood. so phase of the door size is just a moment activities in raising the past history of friction, but right? and that's really belongs to the differential say to why do you think then that there had been so many opportunities in the past for, for this problem to be addressed publicly for something to be done a positive. and each time is you're saying that opportunity has, has been lost. why? i think that the major reason is this one that we see leaving denial last week the, the u. n. a issue, the statement to demand to friends,

to address is profound issue of racism. and institutional discrimination, the response from differential authorities was really quick and it was a total dismissal. and ever see, what i can hear from the government from the author, which is from high for 5 to use, is that there is no such a program in france. then racism, and that's one of the reasons why nothing is done because people think that a country is put on behind. and that's as opposed once. it has nothing to do with race events. the countries interior minister today said, and i'm quoting here, that it is not the police or the states problem to solve when a 12 year old sets a school on fire. nope, i can imagine many would respond by saying it is the state's responsibility to ensure that this 12 year old is educated, has

a modern school that has well paid the teachers of. do you hear that re re apply that reaction to what the interior minister said? so miss a very shocking statement because it's really a hide. it's really hides the front that the initial reason for this thoughts of the uprising was exist. oh is 17 years old teenager. if it was in fault profile, the death of man, no one would be in the streets. and it's very easy to say that, but, you know, young people in france can be exposed to police brutality g as a very young age of 5 years ago. a group of high schools of high school students was put down on the knees with the hands behind their, their head, and targeting by guns by the police. there were no doctrines, industries. and then what between 12 and 17,

there was not any public action to just support them and support them. uh, you know, in front of that, the tool now well, well, let me pick up on this, the, about the behavior of the, these young people. i mean, the police are saying that the, the average age of those arrested is 17. they say they've been boys as young as 12 . they've been vandalizing. what's the role of parents here? i mean, at the end of the day, a 12 year old, a 13 year old, a 14 year old boy or girl should not be running around in the middle of the streets in the middle of the night. why are the parents not involved more here? and i don't see that those parents are the only one whose face, you know, bad behaviors are, you know, these are be the beam is from teenagers. it's something that treat that happens. all kind of circles. it happens to be um, regarding those uh teenagers to be part of uprising. but i think it's very easy to

blame the parents, especially in neighborhoods where i'm many of the parents worked very early in the morning or very late. that's nice. and then the same, the actually just accusation, very interesting because the women who lives in those and even neighborhoods are the ones who take care of their babies up there. you know, the upper classes that are the ones that we need to take care of this even who are on the stairs. so when he comes to the 9, he's a good tread. them, incidentally, today they're not, they know goes as far as i think it doesn't, it doesn't, it doesn't make sense to say that, you know, from the left in france, we hear accusations that the french police have been americanized. and from the right, we hear calls for more low in order as the approach has become more and more violent . i mean, are we talking about 2 extremes here or do both sides have some validity, as you know, seems 2001 every year i have been in, you know,

that i was aiming to give more means, specifically. and one of the worst that was booted late, he wasn't 2017. we actually uh make easier made easier the use of a fire guns by the police. and since then the numbers of people who were shut driving was multiplied by 5. so that's an issue. and ever since there is an uprising, the police officers are given more means and they can also, they can even use a ministry against a face to face, protest and peoples. so i think that there is a problem with the, the media to relation of the cities and the way that they handle public order. for example, as a, as a, as in, as a compare reason to 13 people were killed by the police rush of being in france

last year. and in germany, only one person was q in 10 years. so that's a very different way to handle people industries and handled police. okay, let me ask before we run out of time, i know that the police i'm denied that there is a racism problem within their range. i'm wondering what percentage of police officers belong to an ethnic minority mean, what percentage of cops look like the people who have been protest. i see that many of them actually look like uh the people who are in the streets. but you know, focusing on that. um, really doesn't, uh, put the focus on and nothing on the, on the most important point because the program is the individual is to stay meek. so issue part of them that and that enabled racism even if you'll be known to my energy, you can be part of that. uh, you know, racism a great key again to sort of cut off. so i'm not sure if it's the solution to me.

the solution is, is we, can we do you the, the process of purchasing? what call you the dollar? we appreciate you taking the time to talk with us a fascinating and important to hear what you have to say. thank you. thank you so much. thank you. courtney and president of landscape says that his country's troops are making progress, but the situation of the front line is difficult. movement is anything but swift. in fact, western observers say ukraine's counter offensive has been slow so far. but that may be by design as dw nick connelly reports on the volume just get cover drove bruce, they can use unit on just threatening from the the so close to the russians. they can see them without so much as a pair of binoculars on the table gauge helped to drive the russians out of the key

of the store to the wall. that was a rapid and clear success. but this is different. they've been here for months such and once you see isn't the counter offensive yet, you'll know it when you see it. for now, we're just testing them. i'm looking for the weak spots next up, right as a full scale offensive when dealing with a still ahead of us all it's a she and then what's, what's the phone, what the slow progress we're sick tells me is intentional. the russians had months to dig ditches, lay mine's degree, and he says, isn't willing to risk the kinds of casualties his man inflicted on rushes, backing up motion racing stumble with dr. cuz they just tried to overwhelms with all day them. it was just like weld, want to say we just keep coming soon. we would say, well another 2 would follow you down to another. 4 of them come up behind the jet or put us to far as the $31.00 of the machine guns run halt at best. they wouldn't

even wearing helmets on the body of us. we should have work well they had with that gun. and many of these men had been fighting since the very 1st days of this war. i us krusik, when he lost so his family view. i took my son to his 1st day of school. that was one time then my wife was in the hospital with the pen to scientists. that was my 2nd time for the last, the 3rd time i got 5 days off. and today, when i'm heading back to key for my cousins, funeral you see was killed, relaxing the lungs. so instead of having only brought people has come to fix for another day and with another unit somewhere else and the don't use region. these men know their lives depend on every bit of training. they get of the just a few days before we meet, the soldiers had pushed the rationality back by almost the kilometer. was the

soldier's very 1st time storming well defended enemy positions? no one spoke a word seemed starting at the moment. i think we were all just scared, but it's all about taking that 1st step out of the armored vehicle after that we were on auto pilot. it all just happened because we were just relieved when we got into their trenches to know that we'd avoided their minds and they were definitely there. when he's got decided that it was not our time. this is the village and use questionnaire. what's left of it? one of a handful of places ukraine forces of re taken in recent weeks from life is so dangerous. here is one of the few places. no one's coming back to being out in the open. visible drones is risky. the

face, mitre van would start. but then we're on our way these men are fighting a painstaking battle, one village at a time that lives already quite to the tree on the line. they tell us they're not willing to take even more risk, just to meet deadlines set by far away allies. as a more now enjoyed by marine in their own. she's a military analyst at kings college one. maureen is good to see you again, you know, some experts or say that ukraine's counter offensive has been slow. we just heard one ukrainian soldier in that report. say that it hasn't even started yet. um, what are we supposed to make of all this to oh, good evening. um, it's very difficult to assess a country offensive and its stanfull given the fact that you crane and still lacking some capabilities and they have to conduct it according to what the

adversary's doing. and essentially, as a very beginnings, they have seen that the russians have build up the sophisticated the, the actual defense is therefore, the premiums after having lost some restaurant equipment, such as the armored armored vehicles and a few things have to readjust their tactics and readjust their operations so it's always kind of for back and forth where the bringing on pulls up, trying to retake territory, but they are not in a hurry because they are trying to infer that the equipment is not lost and that they lose as a little man power as possible american made the f. 16 fighter jets that ukraine was promised by the west are not likely to arrive in the country until some time this fall. couldn't ukraine make significant progress without these planes as well? um, the 16 move i purpose fighters would of course, benefit ukraine,

especially because they are capable of delivering the storm shuttle missiles that ukraine has received from the united kingdom. besides russian air defenses don't have the 16 signature. um, in comparison to what you brain is using right now for them. so of course, they want to increase the premiums offensive capabilities, giving them the opportunity to provide support to the troops on the ground as well as strike targets and the russian held territory, such as, um, communication centers, logistics, making it difficult for the russians and pushing them back, however, the problem is that the brain is have to breach this time before they can get the 16th and how far they will go, remains to be seen maybe is this is why is there a taking it very, very slowly in order to, to minimize the losses general as others and the, the commander in chief of ukraine's armed forces. he now says there is

a shortage of weapons of all kinds. once again, who's to blame and how is it possible as well. the expenditure of ammunition is huge and, and we have known for from you installed in burke from october is that indeed there is not only a shortage in new greens or is it a shortage and needle stockpiles and in terms of immunization and equipment, old defense contractors need time to produce whatever is needed and whatever was available from the old stock files has been given to ukraine. so that is one of the reason for, for this shortage because you praying thousands the have the weapon systems that are capable of firing the munition. let's say that the united states use is, besides, in nato, cannot give more ammunition than it already has without replenishing its own stop files. therefore, it's quite difficult. and this is what russia is biting on that the nato. and um,

as are allies run out of things to give to ukraine, and the defense companies, defense contractors will take time to produce new things to give you free. it was very analis, marina maroney, at king's college, london is always, we appreciate your time tonight. thank you. thank you, brent and international center to help investigate and prosecute russian officials responsible for waging war against ukraine is now open in the hey, the w's corresponded. terry schultz was there as the top justice officials from europe. the us and ukraine watched the effort to build cases for trying the crimes of aggression. here's a report. international prosecutors want to see the kremlin pay sooner rather than later for launching war on ukraine. planning, initiating and using state military forces to attack and other sovereign states is a crime in itself, the crime of aggression. and that's what this international center for the

prosecution of the crime of aggression is set up here in the hague to do to eventually try russian decision makers. the climate progression is a bit easier to prove than other war crimes. but above all says ukrainian prosecutor general andre coast in the climate of aggression is what he calls and original sin commission, which opened the floodgates $400000.00 of all their international crimes including targeted killing of civilians, sexual violence, torture for civil displacement of civilians including of children looting and many others. 20 prosecutors including for from ukraine, start work today at the new center, which is supported by the european union, the u. s. the international criminal court and national governments. it's based in the hague euro, just the use to just a cooperation headquarters. trials are already underway in ukraine and several other european countries intending to prosecute those individuals, including russian president vladimir putin who are directing the war. let us live

hon. run euro just president says his agency will collect document, preserve, translate, and share all the evidence being gathered among cooperating countries, including ukraine. we will look at different evidence a like a speeches, political speeches. uh, we will obviously use um, uh, gps uh, maps. um uh we will definitely use a 3 d scan, so we will use intercept that the communication people use uh, information about the move of military services and they open directions and in different countries. many of the authorities helping to get this center off the ground said this level of evidence sharing, among so many different prosecutors is highly unusual. but what they emphasize time, and again is the most remarkable point about this center in the trials that are to come, is that it's the 1st time in history that so much evidence is being gather while the crime, the war is still being committed. can

getting high, your depression site is around the world in one ponder the potential benefits of treating mental illnesses with psychedelic drugs. but these drugs are banned in most countries, which means little if any real world data exists that could be changing. del, under a new era in mental health treatment, magic mushrooms and ecstasy, now available for prescription used in australia. psychedelic therapy offers new hope for those suffering from post traumatic stress disorder and depression. you can use m d m a for people who have tried or the medications for peach state and it's, it's not being successful. so having difficulty with that treatment. so we'll use the peach estate we're suicide and is going to be used to people who are being onto

the preston side or the traditional medications. and they have worked for decades psych, the deluxe were outlawed by governments and shun didn't scientific communities. but now their power is being re discovered, m d m a in silo, simon, can reset brain functions and break old thought patterns. but critics say, australia is decision to legalize them, is premature. and the therapy could backfire there off so many individuals that guide you through the clinical trials do not benefit on not only don't benefit the symptoms get worse that off. so many individuals that this happens to this isn't expensive and to mention, and we don't want to make people worse. treatments could cost upwards of $10000.00 australian dollars per patient. and with the bill not covered by the state euphoria over the drug breakthrough could be short lift. are you watching dw news?
