world comp kits. they say the case sign, luis, ruby, alice could amount to sexual assaults. the welcome to the program. ukrainian forces have retaken warren territory in the southeastern separation region. he says its troops recapture the village of routine it to the south lies the city of talk, not a real junction used by the russian military. ukraine has been pushing to reach the ceo's of as off an effort to divide russian forces and cut off their land for is to crimea. but the advance has been slowed by heavily fortified russian physicians and mine fields. the fighting was ferocious and the price was paid in blood. of this footage club forwarded lu, shows ukrainian special forces fighting in the area around the village overall

bought kenya we had one wounded. one of the soldiers stepped on a mine while evacuating him. vehicle is attacked by a company cuts, a drone. where are you? so what are you planning on forces continue doing defensive into so after the ration of all of booking you, our on forces are moving south east of this settlement and you said to one of us. so i'm hopeful for the booking you is free but large parts of the small village, lot in ruins. this video was released from one of the units that took the village. the civilians had been holding out during the fighting for weeks on end. comfortable crash of the psychologically,

it was very difficult when the water ran out, then the bread ran out. we planned to the garden. otherwise we had to run for food in between the showing now ukrainian forces continue to push on. in front of them lies the next line of russian defensive trenches, tunnels and firing positions protected by vast mine fields. gaps and these mine fields need to be blasted free bit by bit a tedious, slow and deadly business. i ask military analysts marina moran from king's college in london. if this breakthrough in a small village is really significant in itself or only part of a bigger plan as well, it is significant from many perspective. so 1st one being, it's important for the morale of the troops because they have been trying to make advances for 2 months now since the calling for offensive has begun. so even so

that ukraine in military, so i'm conducting nothing operations in the reporting. it's important for them from that perspective to demonstrate uh at least a limited success. on the other hand, they have reached the main defense line of the russians, and they might be pushing toward talk mac. so we have to see how the operations will be unfolding and wasn't the green i'm forces can capitalize on the fact that not everywhere are russian defenses of the same quality and possibly try to penetrate them where there is some what the weaker. because the russians happened reinforcing their defensive lines in the past 2 weeks. and the cold season is around the corner. we know that a granite counter offensive is very likely to be impacted by that. could we see any major advances before that happens as well? the paid season is coming and it's coming very soon in a couple of weeks is it will start raining and everything uh specifically was um

operation. um, there will be a lot of money which will make it difficult to use military technology, the very heavy $75.00 phones challengers, and $65.00 tons, leopards, which might get bogged down in mode. so right now, um general solution has been meeting was, has made or counterparts to discuss a change in that ukraine's military strategy and it remains to be seen. and how far is this will be adjusted and what will happen also with other parts of the front was the russians are advancing or around best mood for instance. and how the ukrainian forces will change their approach in light of these obstacles that are expecting them in the fall. and i want to get your opinion on a piece of news that certainly caught my eye. you for any president, zalinski, is that in an interview, that one says force has pushed through to the border of russian onto by crimea. and you can envision pushing russia to, and i'm quoting him, and they're demilitarized crimea. what do you make of that?

or it is quite an interesting it statement, because presidents lensky is not from the military. he's a politician. so it isn't and vicious desires to the middle of price crimea without using any major military force and perhaps for the civilians. it would be desirable . however, as i said, um, it depends on manufacturers, and i think um, carrillo productive who is the head of ukrainian military intelligence. doesn't share that precise for you because from his vantage point it will still require military force. and i think it is a way to early to talk about that because we don't know how this deviation will be, will be in, in the absence of major breakthroughs. um, how ukraine and when ukraine will be able to reach premier when the creating forces will be able to reach cream yet, especially since they're still lacking air power plus military analysts wearing

them around speaking to us turnaround to have a look at some of the other stories making news around the world today. a u. s. federal judge has set the date for donald trump's trial on charges of trying to overturn the 2020 election results to march or next year. that is only one day before super tuesday went over, a dozen states will choose between trump and his republican rivals. trump says he will appeal to trial dates the libyan foreign minister nylon all long ago. she has been fired after her is rarely counterpart announced he talks with her and wrong. the libyan foreign ministry describes the meeting as a casual encounter. but news of the meeting sparks protest and several libyan cities that we have does not recognize the state of israel. human rights monitors have condemned to ban on women. visiting one of ghana stands most popular national parks. the taliban governments of morality ministry impose the band, claiming visiting women were not adhering to proper as law mach dress,

a gentleman army post office, good, we're currently verifying the claim into background so much to him. so of course, as we are aware of our duty towards local staff approval to free for the new club ship, these midwest, the situation is reminiscent of events enough gone to some shortly before the withdrawal of the boom disappear and other natal troops in 2021 and then to the drum, a government's had long maintained that there was no concrete danger to local. well cuz many of those who are left behind still live in sea of violence from the taliban. in molly, the bonus via employees around 60 molly instar directly. most of them as interprets us, but several hundreds of the low codes are hired as sub contract us. some of them already sent a desperate call for help to the german government earlier this summer. that we must

be sold for humanitarian treatments. and if there is any doubt we must prioritize this, i believe we owe that to the people who have risen their lives to germany. while it seems clear that german troops will leave molly by the end of the year, those who remain behind are left with uncertainty. frances, bending full length as la make a by addresses in schools. the government says the garments break strict rules prohibiting religious symbolism, but critics say the band is unconstitutional. and then attack on as long mix weak kicks off a new school year in france. but a by a outfits like these will not be back in class rooms. the new education minister has been to the long flowing traces, pointing to what he calls an increase and attacks on secularism. the buyer has no place in our schools and neither do religious symbols. this has to

comply with almost fundamental principles of secularism and neutrality. in france already bands religious symbolism in schools including crosses. jewish cape is and islamic kid scouts, but many question with the avaya is in fact religious. typically a loose common popular with some muslim women and girls, similar outfits, a one across various cultures and creeds. the band has divided opinion of a, a c d, a buyer's address for the he that's all people want to turn it into a religious garment. but it's not religious at all. well finds people that i secularism means we must not display religious science in place of education or administration uncle and that is on the road. yes sir, by us. a long dress that's quite loose as long sleeves, but really it's normal clothing. it's not a distinct religious symbol. critics argue that the band, stigmatizes muslims,

and the issue is being blown out of proportion. it's a racist xenophobic, anti muslim is lemme phobic diversion that seeks to stigmatize young women in particular. and it's going to create lots of difficulties by confronting schools with an impossible decisions. it's what is in a bio and what is a long dress of needs. the education ministry has not hit issued risk and guidance on the avaya event. and the legal challenge is likely the spanish football federation has called for the resignation of its president louise ruby ellis. this just hours after prosecutors launched a preliminary investigation into whether is actions amount to sexual assault for we are this case, spanish national team player engineer and also on the lips of the metal ceremony following their victory and the women's world cup. final support for her husband
