missiles. well let's get the latest from key of our corresponding knit conway as they're standing by 4 as nick. what more can you tell us about this attack of the well, the russian occupational administration successfully still keeping pretty tight lipped. as we understand, most of the center is closed off to locals that have been lots of ambulances, seen lots imaging around social media or blowing smoke and debris strewn across the city center. i think this is really important to stress that whereas previously ukrainian attacks were reaching premier and even russia pro, but they were more pin pricks they would drones that often had pretty low payload and couldn't really make much of an impact. these new missile strikes a whole new level of destruction, and this is very embarrassing for the worst of the lower sees there and come year of to days of basically continuous attacks. we've seen a come on point to kind of bunker outside the city of festival, attacked with that. what we believed to weston cruise missiles movie address may

attract to this has never seen the ending in recent days. i know the still have details are coming in about this, but nick from where things stand right now. how would big of a blow would you say this is for the russians of the i think 1st of all, it's a huge image. kind of lots of blo diamond puts it obviously has made, taking, makes inquiry yet the kind of cornerstone of his most recent terms in office and the fact that his governments, his most recent able to protect these kinds of targets in crime. it is exceedingly embarrassing. rushed as much wanted as sense is not holding up. i think it is gonna have an impact pretty soon. it's going to mean a defense is currently protecting russian forces in other parts of ukraine. is that the reason i'm going to be taken away can be pulled down to defend these targets in crime is that's gonna make things easiest in ukraine's all me that and i think it is also going to basically sort of conflict within the rest of the tree. of

questions of blame who hasn't been able to kind of come up with solutions to these new ukraine capabilities. i've also seen the black sea fleets capacity to lots, and we saw a tax on ukraine from the black sea that is now also being reduced. the cost of ships being re, based from successful to novel receipts, much further away from the desk of other ukraine. since in the backseat, so this is definitely something that makes ukraine's life a lot easier. i don't see, it's very welcome off to some kind of lots of questions in recent weeks about ukraine's capacity to push these count defensive to the project for it. and kind of speculation that you, you create might have come some kind of agreement with russia. this is a something that is the interpreting key of, of signs that ukraine is still attacking on the front foot and is going to push restaurant. nick, thank you to thank you so much for bringing us update dw net connelly in t while ukraine's present beloved me as the last b. as in canada, as he continues trying to rally support for keeps efforts to repel russia's invasion. lensky and his wife were greeted at the airport by canadian prime

minister justin true. the unannounced trip is less is 1st to canada. since russia lost its full scale invasion of ukraine is expected to address parliament in ottawa later today. the last address, the canadian parliament, virtually shortly after the war started last year, all the landscape visit comes after he met with us president joe biden and lawmakers in washington earlier on thursday. that meeting led to biden announcing $325000000.00 in new military. 8 for ukraine. president followed the minister lensky did not have to wait long before he secured more us funding to repel russia's attacks and ukraine. soon after he set foot in the white house, us president joe biden announced a new military, a package, and the delivery next week of the 1st abrams tanks. territory paradox of ukraine

has been pushing hard for the m one abrams since washington promised them here in january hunger. i think united states of america, mr. president, for the new defense package for ukraine, where he paul whole package. thank you so much. and it has exactly what our soldiers needs know earlier. so lensky laid a reset the $911.00 memorial at the pentagon and met us lawmakers at the capital. a just visit comes at a time of growing divisions in congress over future funding for ukraine. with many republicans are getting the money would be better spent at home. but the buy ministration is pledging on wavering support for kids. and it's fight against russia. committed to help you grant, build a force capable of ensuring ukraine's long term security capable of deterring

future threats against sovereignty, territorial integrity and freedom which are underway now. because that's what this is all about. the future, the future afraid of america can never will never walk away from that. the new us package is a welcome boost for you french forces and air defense capability as the battle of russian troops in a slow moving counter offensive. earlier i spoke about ukraine with ben hodges, the former commanding general of the us army in europe. i asked him if reason develop it to show that ukraine's allies are dropping the ball. so i think that the $54.00 nations that are supporting ukraine will continue to support ukraine, including poland. but i do think that our president has stopped short of doing what he needs to do, which is to say that he wants to crane to win. if he says he wants to crane to win,

then there's no more excuses about the availability of a tac owns or how long it takes to do certain things. we get serious and deliver these capabilities that are needed. and the president also has to speak to the american people as if they were adults and explain why this is in our interest. and then i think you'd see that supporting congress would remain very strong. what do you make of this path? we're seeing right now between keys and warsaw. poland is blocking ukraine's green exports and he was challenging. poland on that is, is the landscape over playing his hand in this dispute? i think that, terry, what we're seeing is polish domestic politics. they have a huge election coming up here in the middle of october on the 15th of october. and so i think this is more about that than anything else. poland has done so much to

help ukraine. i, ukraine knows that. so i think this will probably be resolved appropriately between ministers and heads of government and after the election, i think we'll be back to a much more appropriate sort of relationship general hodges, you know, that the us is, it's support for ukraine is absolutely essential. the republicans and us congress are threatening to block further aid for ukraine. is there anyone who can fill the gap? if president button can no longer deliver what you currently? it's so uh, yeah, just to, to be specific. its a handful of republicans that have uh out size amount of influence because speaker mccarthy owes his position the speaker to this small handful of right wing extremists. there are more than a 120 republicans who have just signed a letter saying that they support continued aid for ukraine. so you're talking now

with, with that plus all the democrats, 3 quarters of the congress still supports ukraine. but the president cannot assume that this will stay forever. he has his own big election coming up november next year. and so do all 435 members of the house. and one 3rd of the senate as you know . so the president has to make the case to the american people about why this is to our best interest that ukraine is successful, that you're remain stable and secure. that affects american prosperity. if the united states, god forbid, if there is a trump administration that comes next and american support and involvement in europe, weekends, other countries will have to step up because this is about stability and security in europe. whether or not the united states is there to help insure it. now support for ukraine appears to be waning among some allies. there's

a certain amount of fatigue that can be seen. could this end up forcing teeth to accept some sort of negotiated peace deal that it might not like for, but that certainly would. vladimir putin as hoping for the kremlin, knows that they have no other options for me. they, they are losing this war. the ukraine has the initiative just a few hours of. busy muscles were impacting in the russian navy base and such as double again. so that's only going to get worse for the russian side. so their only hope is to drag this out. hope that we get tired and hope that donald trump is re elected as president. that's their only hope. so i think that there will be efforts you'll here. um, i think pressure on ukraine to to go to some sort of negotiated settlement for the sake of peace. but anybody that has ever opened a history book knows that russia never lives up to any agreement they ever make

ukrainians know they cannot trust. any negotiated settlement with russia were russia's left holding crimea, the decisive terrain of this war. and i think you know, this, this freeze fatigue i, i've heard it several times from others as well. not one german soldier, not one american soldier, not one british french polish soldier. is lost, has been killed or injured in this war, ukraine or the cranium. so the friends doing the fighting, so of fatigue i think actually is a poor choice of words for what we're talking about. if our elected officials talk to their populations as adults and explain why this is important, i think most people will continue to supported the former commanding general of us army europe, ben hodges, thank you so much. i it's worse news now and union now goes month has just been named coach of the many german men's soccer team. not as mine is the former coach

of buying munich. he has signed the contract until 2024 and will leave the team until the end of the european championship next summer. here in germany, the 36 year old replaces fonzie flick. it was sent earlier in september. i asked sports journalist, tim your guns. how much snar guzman will have to prove himself with a national t l. this is a tough job. he's taking over now because the german football isn't the biggest depression since. yeah. the world was, i would say, am, and we need to, but we'll see of the following out and into group stages and the work of the last 2 work ups. so it's, it's, it's a tough job. he's, he's taking over now and we, i'm not sure if he's the right guy in this in this moment, to be honest. yeah, i think the of the secret behind is that these are very young. he's 36 years old

now and he wasn't contact was way i'm a bit before he like to say that he worked for by munich. and i think this is james is due in the club football and which is in kansas dynamic. and normally we expected him in the, in the club football. and now he's taking over the national team and i think it's just, it was his wish to do it for one year because it's a, it's a national, a story that it shoots chance on the one hand. but on the other hand, he will go to the, to the club football a after that, maybe when you went to the or your pin the championships, of course then it will be could be a longer story. but on the other hand, i expect him to go back to the to we have to be good clap in the international flux, for example, or you're watching the w notice slide from berlin. just reminder of the top story we're following for you right now. the headquarters of rush is lexi fleet,

on the annex crime in financial it has been hit by ukrainian missile strike rushes, defense ministry initially released the statement saying one service member was killed. the players said the person was missing coming up next. indeed, the news ages syrian president bush auto plaza visits china looking for diplomatic support and financial backing for reconstruction. i'm terry martin. thanks for the one of mankind's oldest ambitions to be within reach. what is it really is possible to reverse the
