promising to consider their proposal to end the war in ukraine. and the un security council condemns the military takeover in the share statement comes after the head of the presidential guard a points himself, defacto leader, the pablo solely as welcome to the program. we begin in ukraine where the military says it has re captured more territory from russian forces. camp says a key front line village of the eastern region of don't ask, being liberated by ukrainian troops. the counter offensive began last month, but progress has been slow. officials in keith have urged patients, noting the difficulties posed by extensive russian fortifications to bundling out

the back of anomalies vehicle into the firing line. ukraine's military release this footage of troops attacking russian positions near the occupied eastern city of back. moot key says it is false is a make the advances despite heavy resistance on somebody else. but it's further to the west that ukraine has reported to break through. the military says, soldiers have liberated the front line, but it will start all my all sca president blow them. is the lensky welcome the news sharing this footage of soldiers announcing the villages, reparation all day off. 2 weeks of slow progress. it's recapture. it will be a new milestone, few cranes counter offensive. russia, however, has denied it, supposes of being defeated with the defense ministry spokesperson saying they had

repelled a ukraine attack in the area and inflicted heavy casualties. moscow has also kept up its attacks fabi on the front lines with new missile strikes on the central ukrainian city of neat pro. on friday, several people were wounded up to a residential complex and ukrainian state security service building. what hit both on mostly empty when themselves fell, meaning that this time at least no one was killed. as russia continues to attack, you crane cities beyond the front line, i asked the military analyst frank lived, which for his take on that tactic. but we saw, we saw a tax on yesterday as your post indicate to don't do the pro. this is a continuation of russ it's comp paid but started last october. there's 2 elements this the 1st days to undermine to run the cuts. they were all of the people which is singularly failed to do, which is the side people are not afraid of these rocket bottoms, and buckets and bombs, i should say. they is not for, they've got used to them,

but they understand the purpose is to attack number all the 2nd thing just of all the more insidious and rather more effective. so we see a tax on key of evolving a few dozen missiles usually be. so i keep drugs and some of the results and the purpose that is not so much the cost covers because almost always, you know, $90.00 to a 100 percent of them are shut down. so you might be asking about why they doing this. and the answer is to deplete ukraine's condition, particularly out of this down to you, i clicked on munition and it is true to say, i think that you kind of still having problems sustaining the munition, particularly for the roles of soviet system. so that's all the, the, the west is not arena for the next few months just to make sure that you kind of know defenses a showed up on supply. does that mean to ship a new west and i mean, it should because the new uh, uh, cost system integrates that defense system that your credit is going to have. it's going to be even better than the old one. but right now, they're not,

they're in that sort of trust whether running outs, associates, ex, soviet get on like just getting the, the western get not, not trusts. gonna last another few months. frank, briefly, if you could, how well do you think moscow has prepared to repel at ukraine's contra fence as well as the printing journals? tusky said 2 days ago downstairs. well, they've done it professionally. they've done it pretty much stopped finally, which means they've done it right. they've, it's their explosive experience of decades and of a data of the over the last century. and i think a lot of us understood this is going to happen. and it what happens to the rest since the last it was like this is they fail tough to, for the 1st year. they line. i don't know much more for me to provide to me. the witness they have however, is it, the generals are more, more the one of the modem shut off a kid who's lines defense as long as they saw their big rush into shooting themselves in the foot by firing these general. so generally guarded by the rank and file as were all the competent. so look, you craze have an uphill task,

but they're more than capable of doing it. the point is it's going to take a long time and everybody should be aware for a long slugging, much good, well into next year. military expert, frank language, thank you for joining us on dw, thanks very much to the public. what was the pleasure? russian president vladimir putin says he is carefully studying a peace plan proposed by african leaders to end the war and ukraine. leaders press 2 to end. the fight entering towards the summit in saint petersburg, vital grain supplies to africa have been disrupted by the war. and by russia putting out of a deal, enabling ukrainian grain exports goods and has offered free grain to 6 african nations. but the african union says, the promised russian supplies full far short of what people need. now, addressing the summit, the russian president signed the leaders for their peace plan and for their response to his invasion to big. i was nice through it, just curious to me just because i know that you were sincerely interested in doing

what you've done to help. but you, but just an sustainable solution to the contract. my goodness. now which of course, we greatly appreciate a balanced approach as well as the fact that you have not supported and do not support on the russian rhetoric utility, according to an ideal russian campaign. just simply to put in a slip, if that happened, we wouldn't be having this conversation right now. so you can natalia tell of neva is a historian and lecture, an international history of the university of strathclyde. and i asked her, asked her, what present improvement was hoping to achieve from this summer? well, i think president clinton here is of course, grasping at straws because he is running really short on international allies and the idea of the summit african. so i'm at the, the way it was the original admission. what's the cost of the just that, but you know, you can see, especially in comparison to the summit the few years ago. just how much with the

last 2 and a but l a. c has now in comparison to the $1019.00 event in africa, where usually a russia has a lot of input, will start to claim that food in announced some major commitments at the summit from free grain at to free weapons. but kind of the actual russian economy affords a to make these uh promises it's very, it's very hard to, to know all the details, of course, because a lot of these pronouncements quite restore it. cool. and the meant to kind of short off is alliances and bring in some of this countries to remain friends also on the international uh agenda. but in general, i think especially when it comes to looking to weapons and techniques. but he will be able to go to on there some of this commitments,

especially that in africa. no, but already full kind of couple of years. the ross has been provide and kind of no strings attached advice and know how on security the issues drawing and also and also arms. so i think at the moment of the rest and that the comics association is, is still ok. so i think it will be able, especially in the short term to do this. but of course we don't know what's going to happen in the long term. and i think given that attendance of the current summit is much lower than the previous one. and it seems like there's also a lot of a kind of uncertainty among the african nations about russia's future potential as well in terms of corporation. is essentially russia looking to find a trade partner for russian much the same way that the you used to be for russia

and is it essentially a viable trade partner? i think it's interesting to see, i think there's a genuine debate as to whether this corporation with african countries that you know, basically puts in the people around been, have been trying to get off the ground for some time. now whether it's really motivated by politics, fundamentally, or comics, there are sort of arguments how much this can be profitable and how much african countries can compensate for the loss of european union. it seems like there is some hope that this can be done, but it seems like indian china can provide much, much firm foundation when it comes to economics and kind of providing this sort of showing up the russian exports of brain. but i think, fundamentally, it's about politics, i think, fundamentally it's about, i mean, there is

a reason why putting emphasize the diplomatic efforts of african african nations to kind of peacekeeping. so, i think, fundamentally, it's a political, political summit. and the goals of political is to show that russia is not isolated, that it probably still has international allies. dr. natalia tell of neva from the university of stress clyde, thank you for joining us here on data. that's bring you up to date now on some of our older stories. typhoon dark story is bothering china with heavy rain and high winds. it's one of the strongest storms to hit in years. more than 400000 people have been evacuated inside the eastern food john province travel. there has been disrupted schools and businesses closed, and people have been advised to stay indoors. the police in the peruvian capital
