and how she thinks most rain, so today wise mother annoyed for nearly 4 decades. she's for peace, for me, for brace of freedoms in their homeland. they run in spite of love, very few trifold children should not inherit science from us. the, an income, if you look into the nice just stats july 29th on w for moscow, withdrew from the greenville on monday. it only took a couple of hours until the russian missile started striking you creams wax. the ports for a 2nd consecutive day bombs of crippled harbour facilities in odessa, ukraine calls it a truly massive attack. it has hurt its ability to export wheat and importantly, destroyed 60000 tons of green waiting to be shipped to countries in dire need away

from the coast to cranes counter offensive to re counter territory under russian control grinds on field for field village or village about not only leaders in ukraine expect to be long and difficult. nicole for lation berlin and this is the day the ukraine is continuing. it's critical kind of offensive to retain that sovereign territory. in the last month, the crane has liberated more cetera tray that russia captured in the last year. so the russian situation is not very good. who has a real problem? how does he moved from here? what does he do? he has lost a lot of people. and he has lost a lot of paper bill. it has a lot of tags, a lot of aircraft,

a lot of missiles that he's fired with the ukrainians is a significant amount of combat power. not yet. as i said, the phrase right for freedom is a marathon, and madison read. there's a lot of fighting left to go. this is going to be long, it's gonna be hard. it's going to be bloody also on the day close allies with the intentions relations between the united states and israel are going through a rough patch over plan traditional reforms in israel. but the countries president promises deeply rooted values will prevail of the sacred bonds we share is unique in scope and quality because it is based on values that reach across generations across administrations, across governments and publishes welcome to the show. it's good to have with us the 2nd night what ukraine describes as hellish aerial assaults by

russia on the city of odessa home to create the primary grain shipment port in the black sea. the drone and missile strikes costs extensive damage to critical port infrastructure. the strikes come after rochelle pulled out every year old deal to allow the export of green from ukraine. russia now also says it will consider all ships heading to ukraine as legitimate military target. meanwhile, ukraine's counter offensive andrews a 2nd month and officials can see that is going slower than i expected. but some progress has been made. the biggest territorial games for ukraine had been near relic. i know we know still south west of done that square ukrainian forces have been able to liberate for villages that we use special corresponding to abraham was one of the few reporters given access to the area where she found out firsthand why people are reluctant to return in this village is one of the 1st to

crane has taken back from russia and it's counter offensive. it's called in this coaching a which means not boring and ukrainian today that feels like a cruel joke. this coach, they used to be home to about 700 people. now there's nothing for them to come back to me because of what it is. it seems to be the pains me to see this because they used to be live here who lives in the united voters are supposed to be about the sometimes it's hurts even to seize the land. the lens is constantly being torn apart by showing no smoke out. the nature suffers, people suffer the country suffers ever since that is a live software there ever since socrates the system. as we're filming, we experience why no one's coming back. as russian troops are treated the mind to really quick like

we have to move, the russians are constantly firing. what i was about to say was that the russians mind the whole village as well as their positions on the front lines. this strategy means every step of the territory ukrainian troops we gain is paid for with this nearby military medical point deals with the consequences. doctors here stabilized casualties, so they can be moved to a hospital, the funding museum and say the to mean we've been seeing injuries relates to mine explosions, which lead to reputations for compromising. we can see people on the nickel loops deployment of mine, injured person is brought to us. we have them for we see them even while they're being carried from the car. we can already hear them because of how loud they scream the signal cuz she wants to feed these men are determined to avoid. they've just returned from ambushing russian

positions. everyone's exhausted, but there is no time to rest. they're carrying out exercises to learn from would be seen on the battlefield. it won't be enough on its own though. they tell me they need you cleans allies to stepped off more chocolate. i finish with the another filled the head to the we need everything. artillery shells, planes and equipment. we're liking everything. you have to look at it that way. this isn't some kind of game. these as to human lives pacifically. easy. i ask, i'm talking about criticism that ukraine's counter offensive is slow through the book of but the able to let them show us how it should be done. uh, no problem with these politicians. and so for experts, they're all told, they're gonna say we're going, you know, when you're sort of in limbo and the russians are on the defensive, the shouldn't be underestimated about fighting them. it isn't easy and effective for us to worry about. this is cut out, but i wouldn't say we're slow,

we're actually making good progress. we people say we can go foster. it's just empty words. like when the russian said they could take care for it in 3 days or difficult forgive a bit. and now that the, the summer brought the flow, this is the town of villa kind of us. ok. the russians never got this far, but we're just a 5 minute drive from this coaching in the village that was occupied here. a successful counter offensive can't come fast enough. this time of year this police would normally be bustling with life families and people just enjoying the sunny day. but now there's just absolutely nothing left. there's barely a building intact. the sound of artillery here is just relentless. it just does not stop. billy kind of a silica is one of the closest towns to the front lines with civilians still living in it. it had a pre war population of about 7000. now locals, tell me there are just a few 100 left. tatiana is one of them will storms cause this sierra july. i was

born here like this is where my story begin. how can i leave a go my ancestors abroad here is this my city of which will my why should be give up ukraine inland, which does because they are stronger. we are stronger in spirit. as we speak. sounds of artillery. tatiana doesn't even flinch. buffalo, billy social costa, we have a red, adaptive, somehow, like there is some kind of mutation in our board is we don't react to explosions like that anymore. it is, you know, she loves everyone loves series because we have to survive somehow customer. sure, sure, sure. but there's no electricity here, no running water, no shooting and no shops. this volunteer who brings food in twice a month is a crucial lifeline to lose. my husband is now defending our country in the front line and i'm defending the humanitarian front. so i'm here have nowhere to go. some

have disabled people at home to some pension is who accepted. they might be killed here. we kind of leave them all got left her hometown in the don bass in 2014 after russian back separatists took over. she later settled in very kind of a silica this is what remains of the house. she and her husband worked for 8 years to build. they finished it just days before the full scale invasion has been show twice. i'm sorry. the wisdom want to live 2 weeks with my husband did all the past with his own hands . he did everything every week you to on february 22nd to relate this law not in february 22nd, but we finish to this room. it will be listed, the children's room was already done,

but there's that old and she made this last year with her 8 year olds. oh the oh, it still works like that. this is how we celebrated the year 2022 as a family in our house. of course, in the rest of our to closing those. every time i come back, a discount on my hobb deepens in the city. a bunch of us things, trunk august says she believes she'll repair her house and that ukraine will rebuild. but for that to happen, they need victory on the battlefield. the sooner the better it's bringing just in chrome pays and military veteran and sales international intelligence and risk analysis consultancy civil line. he joins us from the u. k. mr. crump, welcome back to the w. now a month into be offensive. can we say anything about where it's heading other than to quote and general mark, milly that is going to be long and bloody or well,

i mean he's, he's always, he got a pretty good despite to the events. and i think he just thought i'd say most of the people in the front line have a very similar message. and so they have a nice spoken to us at the same thing, which is where people think it's so easy for me to be doing better. they come here and try it and i think that reflects the real difficulties of operating sick and self new crime where we we thought about the very flat open landscape. the difficulty of maneuvering that the difficulty post by driving is like a control. the huge, the challenging p credit even for you, think about the mines, go to the right front and so on. so i didn't live in hopes that they could crack open the front, the, the russian defense is be weaker than maybe the periods. and i think there's elements of truth in that, but it is a growing to get to the point where maybe ukraine consults gay, more or more advantage. and in that regard, we've been here before. we saw this west as a neat when they reached the diary of a sudden last year using some of the tactics. i was about 30 days of grind. now

this is on a totally different scale where we are now. but you know, it's not i the sure, and i think that the expectations behind i think you can use getting results. and while a village will to may not seem to match. so the, the russian progress as low as you just say needs of people's items. these people's houses, these people's likelihood, they might be a moral victory to bring them back to the current in sort of the line, but you see how important it is, the ukrainians, the families and the soldiers. yeah, the difficulties are great and a lot of homes were pinned on the mechanized units, especially those with western supplied armor is a ukrainian military able to deploy those as intended too. well, yes, i think not necessarily perhaps as hoops. um, either we seen that that challenging environment either is difficult to deploy, what we call combined dogs. men. 2 of us are using these forces together and the way of which of course, the u. k. the us, germany, nato allies in general, can,

can deliver that sort of capability to decades to build up. um, you know, that's a lot of experience with them to being able to make this look easy as the us did in a rock new case. and i sort of occasions, so it is, are mind, this is hard, you know, it really is so big expect to repeats of maybe what we saw in the gulf of things i thought is always, i'm realistic. if you look at the way that force is a balanced and ukraine in the territory. and so, but the reality is that ukraine has temper gates worth of more, more than equipment that is not being committed to the spike. yeah. i think if it was sort of over, if it was where the peaking fee crate and those elements would also have been committed, say not being commit isn't this. we've set the floor when you're annoyed of space and the longer those units are not in the 4th, the longer they have to train the longer they have to think about how they can operate in this very, very difficult environment and actually make progress. i think the indicator is when they're actually deployed and now they're not. i'm not sure if your credit is nowhere near the end of exhausting. it's potentially the delivery of cluster

munitions of by the united states was partly explained by a lack of other artillery munition. but to what extent does it also reflect the kind of battle this has become maybe one that is not in trying to out maneuver the russians. but turning this into more of a more of a strategy of attrition on the side of the the premiums as well or yeah. and then that's what it's been for a long time. and again, the cranes use that strategy before used outside keys. they used it outside the sun before. so yes, that is absolutely what they're doing and the customizations. yes, it makes up to some of the lack of supply or potential able mentoring. the supply that's available for the credit is we know that like, far, lot more rounds and they all, they are appropriate at the moment from what we're saying outweighing the russian or to the read affective music. no and absolute numbers. and they've been going off the russian guns for a number of weeks now, and you can go to where do you see the trends changing whether or not you believe the numbers underneath as you crate. and so we're starting to ship the balance and

that is, that's very significant and cost to munitions are significantly more effective. again, certain sorts of talk is run 10 times more effective. the conventional munitions would be by comparison. so they do have the ability to cost more destruction, particular kinds, trench lines and things like that. but a skyscraper wise, where are the more likely to learn what you need them? if you're talking area target or indeed guns you can, you are hitting an area. it's going to do a lot more damage, so it's not a necessity. it's bought a time to do useful for you credit. and to be honest, both sides would have been using these sorts of munitions. it's not preached anything that are the rush where you create and wasn't doing previously. and these fields to serve list, they're becoming spread, ordinance other. please do post the hazards and heads the question marks by using them. i think in this situation you can find somebody, but it's not really adding significantly to the risk the ukrainians and office and the volunteer. there are now also reports. the u. s. might be moving towards applying more longer range until reinstalled, specifically attack. and this would those hell break through rushes defense lines

and give the counter offensive a push. this is not strategic targeting. so again, there's 2 ways of stopping any military from working. one of which is to find it and destroy it. you killed the crews, destroy the guns, disabled them on the other way, is to make sure they have not munition to far which point and they just target that uses. so ukraine's been doing buddies that we've seen the effects of these trucks behind the lines as hopkins gives them the ability to extend the range of those attacks with mortality and will distance. um, so in 2 areas in crime a, what currently the credit is using drains are using so on conventional techniques to try and deliver attacks? well by russian lines having longer range missiles. and we've seen that the storm shadow and that you scope the french very end of the storm shot at me. so really opens up a lot more targets. i'm not just thought to re logistics supplies, but also headquarters. and of course, you know, there's lots of lots of senior officers to strikes from headquarters and other attacks. and again, that sort of signed the awards. good. well,

if you're using all germs that are fairly steady rates, who are getting killed on the battlefield, that's really no one should be happening to a general. so this point increases the challenge for us or and defending against what your credit is doing. but there are no silver, but it's none of the eastern nations who me the thing that winning some of the great. yeah. is that a lot of that to use together incrementally the attack on the cards bridge on monday and today's explosion in crimea. both things that you briefly touched on there are these more more round boosters for ukraine, then significant military successes. or we shouldn't discount the importance of our all base, a continuous support and maintaining the will of your forces to parts and the will of your society to support them. but they all more than that, i mean strikes the coach. prayers are very much of the hall of russian pride. you see that and how they react to it. but i think the great deal by tom, too, mcgray disability in the desa, which was hardly really a military target in response to the post the bridge were such as being used to the

already resupply russian soldiers. i mean, it's been the time before that been several other attempt to tax on it. i need some assistant target for you credit because it makes life a lot more difficult if it's touched, exhaust, particularly, the rel bridge, which card has not been pretty thoughts interdicted. that makes life a little harder for the russians itself. the credit is huge objective. it's a massive check point, full russia, but typically the railway nicole say the top of the lines themselves, they've attacked the bridges from crime yet, mainland, in the north and those accessories. and so the current space is ready to sort of golden target in that regard. and again, it is a symbol both ways mean the panic. coolest. the russians sticky russian terrorists are still going to cry, made because they've been told it's safe and pointing out. of course it's not about in itself. i think just of the school was how important this is. even just that you just the model factor as well as me that tell really this attack there's no yeah, at the significance but destroying the rope. ridge definitely with dusting, crowns of simple line, always credit speaking to your thank you for your time. i can you of

the israel's president eisenhower. it's ok has addressed a joint session. the us congress sees only the 2nd is really president to do so following his father president heim, her sock, who spoke in front of lawmakers in 1987. and while today's speech was planned to mark the 75th anniversary of the foundation of israel, but had a state use it as an opportunity to address the us growing on the ease with developments and has country heard talk hailed the bilateral relationship with the us calling america, israel's grievous friend and partner, but he also spoke about unrest at home, acknowledging and intense and painful debate over benjamin at me, i was hard line policies. the prime minister is seeking to limit the power of israel supreme court and expand to our settlements. and the occupied westbank hands dogs appeals at home for a compromise on the traditional overall is so far proven elusive. then

a speech he saw to reassure lawmakers that israel's democracy was alive and kicking a. we built a nation states which has faced relentless war towel and diligence of my zation. since it's birth the country, fighting to defend itself from enemy and fall yet whose citizens continue to great ease of each other. with the word piece shut along. the country which takes pride in its vibrant democracy, its protection of minorities, human rights and civil liberties as laid down by its paula mind victor message and safeguarded by a strong supreme court and independent judiciary the and asked me to aaron david miller. he's a senior fellow at the carnegie endowment for international peace focusing on us foreign policy for more than 2 decades. he served as a state department,

middle east analyst adviser and negotiator, in democratic and republican administrations. mr. miller and welcome to the day standing ovations there and congress for the is really president of the prime minister, had to wait until monday to even get an invitation to the us as returning to office . what's the message here? the right, i mean the, the medium is the message, frankly. and here, text visit tranquilly is more emblematic than it is a driver of events. and i think the point car for a newsletter extraordinary, the 2nd time at the present, the result was met with the united states with a year. and today yesterday and today the vice president sector, state national security advisor. you saw the reception in congress, which is quite extraordinary. prompting a or a resolution supporting us is really relationship of always by 99 democrats. fetch one, the images. the other is of

a guess, arguably an invitation. no time, no venue fix between benjamin netanyahu and the president, the united states who is finally not interested in going to war. we've been having that in. yeah. presidents don't want to fight with is really for a ministers is distracting. it's annoying. it can be politically damaging. but at the same time, it's clear he's not prepared to embrace this is not to benjamin netanyahu. that joe biden has known over the previous 3 or 4 project. and it's, this is a risk not cautious. prime minister, who is desperate and travel abroad. ro, tribals refer to beach of trust and, and k is, are bad if, if the elections were held tomorrow and let, you know, could not put together a government, therefore, you need to keep this one together. and that means play katie, right wing extremists. and that wouldn't been was masters of how bother to think

that, you know, is by those by hurts are going there. and him hardly being invited. you know, it's funny because some people think that babies be measuring, you know, better than nothing. now skin is, is, is uh, very hard. uh, others, obviously believe that is, is ego, uh ways. um, it was the dominant issue with his character. i mean, i think of course he's trouble. he's told why a lot of see he's got protest, military reserve is threatening, not your duty. if history drooped, the largest yearly trader union, threatening the possibility of a massive strike. and again, he's got um, not much to show for his relationship with the job. i mean, there is great concern in congress and the wine has about democratic backsliding in israel, but is not and you know, really where to undermine the shared value. so, terrorist finding united states wouldn't have an impact on washington support for

israel, a hi, it's fascinating question. you know, my, my acid test, frankly, when the us is really relationship changes, is when you have democrats and republicans in congress, both the house and the set, basically debating, honestly in all 32 issues. one, us support for israel, what makes sense and what doesn't. and israel's relationship trading relationship with palestinians. right now there is almost no debate on those to me. so i think keeping this, this democratic back sliding and israel over time, it will take it to investors of course. correct. but think about it, the republican party hasn't merged as the israel right and wrong and insurance. you know, it doesn't care much for it to be for the american use community. it's much more invested in jo, goes conservative in writing public. and so if in fact us really relationship is

being undermine, it may take some time to get to the point where you actually see a change in behavior on the part of and we only have about a minute left. but i do want to ask your opinion on this job. i'm has been very critical of the proposed traditional overall. is it a good idea for the us to metal beyond that? beyond verbal criticism. you know, one of your religions, everybody's really in american politics, is that these are always don't medicine, our affairs job baltics. and we don't many lanier's, i work for 2 administrations for her bulk and democrats, which it was an over an effort on the part of the united states was trying to influence. and really to actually, to mr. nothing. yeah, was intervene repeatedly. i'd be happy to republican, so i think the limits of, particularly for an ally and then yeah, and it is, is really, is themselves that will determine whether or not mister nathan,

you know, gets to undermine their democratic system and the independence of dear judiciary . it won't be the united states with the defies, with the decisive factor and influence, and they're making their voices heard on the streets of israel. that was aaron david miller saying, fill out the coordinating, down for international peace. thank you so much for sharing your way with us today . take care. and that's our time, but we'll see you again tomorrow. if you liked by the
