seeks to reassure allies at home and abroad that he's up for the job as president doubts about his fitness for office continued to plague his re election campaign. the major celebration by the mood appears small tips, then festus. the 7th. if you've any of us or he comes during one of the most challenging times for me to rush to suggest against the cream for more than 2 years, their lives has been test. it puts unity in continue support of the united states, nearly 2 dozen allied gardeners assigned to by allow security agreements that you create more countries or follow. today, i'm gonna house in the store donation a very defensive equipment for ukraine. united states, germany,

the nothing has remained. you initially will provide your grade for the equipment for 5 additional strategic air defense systems. in the coming months, united states and our partners tend to ride your credit with dozens of additional tactical air defense systems. united states. so make sure that when we export critical, our defense interceptors, ukraine goes to the front of the line. the decision could bring some loaner way to the relief for you cream. i made intensified russian attacks but it's not just to boost for defense that you create has been us can. so imagine how much we can achieve when a limitation. i'll lift it, we can protect our seat is from verizon guided moons. if america latest remains a step forward and allows us to destroy rise in a minute 3 year across on the basis. and we can significantly limit the ross and

access, you know, solves and you agree and posed, they'll keep by an hour over there. if america lizzie assist us with the necessary deed, strike capabilities against russian miller threats and logistics in our you paying for i me out season ends the landscape once such decisions to be made fast before the u. s. selections based november, the result of which could put both us support for ukraine and even nature itself into question. i asked the w a conway and key of how ukraine is responding to these signals coming from the nato summit. look or i think the big problem here is that ukraine hasn't heard of convincing story as to what is different this time around compared to last year's summit in vilnius way. ukraine didn't get a convincing roadmap to membership. it seems like the nato countries are trying to

look some kind of new fudge, some kind of new kind of wording to explain that. yes, ukraine will join and that stuff is going to happen. but when does ask us that is a major problem seen from here because this is all about this current phase, the we're right, no one and ukraine expects nato troops to turn up on the front lines and east and ukraine. but for the future, this is vital because we did out security guarantees. there's a big question mark about whether the millions of ukrainian refugees who are already in europe will ever come back without having some kind of certainty to russia. caught in data again. and even for people here, once the board is open, you might have millions of people still in the country because there's limitations of men leaving, leaving because they just there think it's worth trying to build a picture of the country that could potentially come under attack. so soon again, this is crucial from the ukraine perspective. in the ninety's, ukraine gave up, it's nuclear weapons that it inherits from 70. and in return to the security guarantees it turned out to be pretty much worthless. so there was a real push here that you, this is the country that long term will not put up,

will not agree to anything less than security guarantees. and i think this is a broad question of to nature. members, want to see you crane when or is it just about stopping ukraine losing. and that was what we heard. so let's get that asking for permission to use us weapons against the russian targets further away from the boat to really go off to those apples to apples to other targets. right now ukraine is only allowed to hit targets about a 100 kilometers from that folder. and near that decision on it, so could make a huge difference that allow ukraine to make it that much harder for us to, to attack this country. so you, ukraine clearly wants nathan membership, but it also needs weapons. nathan member states a promise more air defense systems for ukraine. is that the main thing that ukraine wants right now in terms of weapons. sure, that is the most pressing kind of part of the ukraine wish list. you've seen those images yesterday. that even key of even the capital with the most dense network, very defensive is still so vulnerable,

and it's still so unable to really prevent those russian missile getting through. if russia stands alone in one go, but again, this is pretty disappointing. all of these pledges that we've heard from which of these are all things we knew about before. these things that are being trailed in advance, germany already handing over that picture system that was basically re announced in washington. so yes, this does typically improve your grades, but it's defend itself, but it is not new and it is not on a scale that would really put it into this problem. i think the big remaining question mark is whether those, these really pictures systems, it'd be muffled 8 of them. we believe if they were to make their way to grant that would then add up to what you're paying currently has and would really allow that math to be closed. and most major cities to be protected is preston. zalinski concerned that us support for ukraine and by extension, nato support could decline after the us presidential election in november. nick certainly is. there is panic in the city here in cuba about the 2nd trump presidency. not only because we've had his campaign coming up with ideas how they

think they can end this rule in 24 hours. basically by pushing ukraine disagreements, it's capitulate the hand of a big sways of territory to vladimir putin. but also this history here. you remember trump's 1st impeachment was about him trying him in his team trying to push the volume zalinski to basically create comp buzzing. you stories about hunter bite in his business dealings and ukraine to help trump in his us political baffles . so there is real bad blood then real fear. i think it's about damaged invitation right now, reaching out to more mainstream republicans hoping that they will influence trump and his team to try and kind of pull back on some of those most extreme ideas. but there is a huge worry here, and there's a real hope that now some of these methods try institutionalized support for ukraine, put it on a nature level rather having it organized by the us. some of the tree things that trump could rode back in a hurry and hope basically to try and get as much aid here and to get as many structures in place before. uh, potential trump presidency. nick,

thank you so much. that was our correspond nick connelly in key. it's catch up on spell the stories making headlines today. a passenger buses collided with a milk tanker in northern india, killing at least 18 people and injuring several others. crash occurred unexpressed way near the city of now in time for their state. officials believe the bus may have been speeding when it hit the mill tanker from behind australia and authorities. the chemical explosion has sparked a large fire at a factory in melbourne. firefighters are working to extinguish it, but more and it could burn for days. police say there were no injuries and everyone was evacuated. thousands of residents were warned to stay in doors to avoid inhaling toxic smoke. israel says it's investigating what happened in an idea of error strike in the gaza strip. the palestinians say it display civilians killing at least 25 people. the dead included families living in tents

outside the u. n. run school in the town of us on, near, on, eunice, israel has stepped up, its bombardments from us militants, who have been regrouping in casa local health. authorities say more than 38000 people have been killed since the war began after him, us carried off the october, 2nd term attendance for more we can cross over now to our correspondent in jerusalem, tonya cramer tanya, post. any of the officials say at least 25 people were killed in the air strike on that school. the israel depends forces say they're reviewing reports, the civilians were harmed. what more do we know at this point as well? we know from the is rarely ami. that's what they usually put out in the statement. they put out overnight that basically they're saying they targeted homeless militants who took part in the october a 7 attacks among other things and saying,

as you said, that then looking into the report that civilians were harmed and this strikes. now we know from the goals a house ministry that among the victims there where women and children, there were taking shelter at the school is also not the 1st time a school or a 10 city where, you know, people are taking shelter, seeking shelter has been hit and they also said her services that casualties are expected to rise from the in addition to that dressing heavy bombardment in a garza city in the were people in the eastern parts and in central garza where all school ordered by the military to leave the area moving further west, the palestinian red crescent has said they have difficulties to reach the wounded, an injured a people. also, some hospitals have a bacteria to other hospitals,

of course, their own not fully functioning, so it's not an easy task for them. now the military has indicated earlier in the year that they had a goal is to city under control, but clearly not the saying that's how most of the middleton groups and their point of view are regrouping. so that means that thousands organ displace many have state and goes to city moving from neighborhood to neighborhood. but someone's saying this thing put together because it's simply too dangerous right now a to move somewhere else in kansas city because any safety this elusive. what about ceasefire negotiation? sonya egyptian media or reporting that talked we'll continue in doha and cairo this week, but because these latest is really airstrikes end up jeopardizing those talks. a while we heard from her mouse has been saying that these latest development, especially also board is going on in garza city, coach and crew to return the negotiations. uh, 2.0. and as you said,

those negotiations are underway at the moment. we are expecting today a full way meeting in doha, in cut out between the is really american, katarina, addiction officials and don't have you also have a mouse that has a barrow there. now this meeting is seeing it as crucially comes of the meeting in cairo because they're saying from what you're hearing from sources here, that this is a meeting to take starks, what are the disagreements of still we heard the some progress, but we also heard from is really, officials now a saying that addiction optimism is a bit premature and that long and complex and difficult negotiations are heads in the coming weeks. and of course, also domestically we have to say we have been hearing from prime minister benjamin netanyahu. and because of statements he had put out of 5 principals that are non negotiable, which has been seen by some as per the, complicating those talks. and also as far as coalition partners headset,

they don't want to see such a good agreement and they would leave the government. it's such an agreement would be closed telling you. thank you very much. our correspondent tanya craver there in jerusalem in an interview with the w, a member of the is really government on a high she cli defended the use of heavy bombs by these really military. in the heavily populated ghost has strep surgery, you don't use 2000 pound bombs if you want to go easy on civilians, do you? if you call the civilians to evacuate, the terry donated before and then you use heavy logs because it's some cases, entire streets, being trapped by bones at all from us. i think it's absolutely rigid to make you feel nothing for the huge number of casualties that you've caused. 38000 that

move in a 2000 digit more than a 1000000 people displays thousands of palestinian children's dead. and which was which was this war. now i'm asking about how you feel about before the state we did into this war. and you can watch the full interview on the latest edition of conflicts own here on dw, at 730 p, m u t c or online at dw dot com slash conflict. so now the european space agencies are in 6 rock. it has successfully blasted off on it's made in flight. europe's newest rocket launched from the european spaceport include route in french kiana for a nearly 3 hour flight. it comes 4 years later than initially planned companies from 13 different countries were involved in the rockets construction and development. thanks for watching the january 2021. the attack on the united states capital. thousands of people took

pods and among them. some of these manipulative voices are a former high ranking. military leaders wanted us veterans turned their backs on democracy. and what does this mean for the upcoming election? the enemy within starts to lie 12 on d, w. the beauty you know, wants to help both him and his talent then the last 16 years old.
