with russian forces advancing and us aid endowed. our correspondent visits the defenders of one of moscow's key objectives in the east, the and the one. welcome to you, our viewers around the world. i'm michael. ok. the white house is making a fresh push to secure a ceasefire in the middle east before next month's us presidential election. secretary of state anthony blinking has arrived and israel is 11th trip to the middle east. and so still it is began. it's also his 1st visit since is really forces killed. yeah, the seymour, the leader of the homeless village, includes linking will also be discussing the spillover from the conflict into lebanon, where israel is fighting, has bella earlier i spoke to our jerusalem,

corresponded emily gorgine. i asked her where the killing of a mazda is. leadership could help restart ceasefire talks as well when it comes to the seems far, 12. there's really no indication at the moment that would suggest that they would be successful in the near future. many including the us president job i have hoped, unexpressed, i hope that the death of have some more i must of lead to would be a voice, has had moments in the sense that it would allow israel to claim victory broker a deal and gets the hostages back however, for looking at what's coming out of the use really government, the picture looks very different. there is a sense that what we're hearing from communist depends. i mean that's on yahoo. is that a victoria? is there any possible militarily? and that is also why we're seeing this continuation of is and if you look up to the us of influence over the past 2 months, it really does not give you the impression that it has had any effect on how his

role is conducting itself in this war, so hopes and israel certainly a very low emily, they've been so many failed attempts at brokering a ceasefire. all the while israel has intensified its military campaign in gauze and now in lebanon to which is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu strategy here as well. that is a good question in terms of when it comes to also people in israel, they also controls out a lot. and that's something that you hear a lot to me as well, because that doesn't seem to be a very clear path from what his strategy actually is. he has said over and over again, but he does not believe or that he thinks that i'm the, i'm the way victory can be achieved for israel is militarily. and now this obviously contradicts what the us has been trying to do for months. namely, brokering a deal as soon as 5 deal. but what do you have to keep in mind is that missing young is leaving a goal to accomplish and governments with partners who do not believe in

a ceasefire deal. they do not want to say it's 5 deal, many of them all supporters of such organizations who want to, for example, resourceful garza. and so there's also a considerable pressure from within his own government, not to accept any 65 deal of that. so emily gorgine andrews, when many thanks, emily in french city of strasburg, a debate is underway in the european parliament on the need for a cease fire and lab and on, and the safety of united nations peacekeepers. there the so called unit fell or united nations into him force and 11 on has come under fire as israel attacks has bola, the let's take a look at the mission of the u. n. force and how important it is to security in the region lab. and then under bombardment, israel targeting has the law, but then lebanon's densely populated south. it's hard to make surgical strikes. more than 10000 unit. phil peacekeepers are here alongside civilians and militants

. their headquarters has come under fire and official state is rarely forced as bulldozed and observation tower. this is a serious development and unit, and unit fail reiterates the safety and security of you and personnel, and property must be guaranteed. and the vin vile ability of you and promises must be respected at all times. you're in the field outposts and command center, stretched across southern lebanon, forwarded by the tiny river. its official area of operations also includes part of the border with syria. you enforce got its mandate in 1978, amidst lebanon civil war. when palestinian militants were fighting is really forces in southern 11 and the force was meant to be a temporary presence to provide stability and assess the lebanese government and restoring order. but una fill has been there ever since gets mandate was later brought in to help ensure humanitarian aid could reach the

population to secure the border with israel and to keep other armed groups out that has been cut and much more complicated with the rise of hezbollah basically, the un peacekeepers working in southern dublin on suppose to monitor and ensure the implementation off the un resolutions and constantly communicate with the been on his way and to deescalate any wise intention on the water. however, it is evident that unit feels mission failed to bring back home along the basis for a border for more than a year. now, is why it's called the incursion into southern dublin on and the fee is classes with has the loss militants putting the unit for those personnel at risk and jeopardizing their mission. for now the you and the says i didn't, tends to keep the peacekeeping mission in place. but if the war gets even more intense, that may no longer be possible. and of course dw will bring you more news from the

european problem is debate later today. do in fact, stay tuned for that tensions or rising in cuba, where blackouts are making life on variable refrigerators have stopped working. shops are running even lower than usual and supplies. and we residents have been blocking some roads in the capital with huge piles of rubbish. others marching through the streets, banging pots and pans. the state officials fear a repeat of the large scale civil unrest against power outages in 2021. defying the state bond on protests, demonstrators in havana take that chances in the dock. the lights have been out for days, leaving residents to fend for themselves. some areas have electricity like over them over there, but we haven't had power here for even one hour. we have seen without firewood for

4 days. the field has 4. children are struggling. we have no on the water, we have nothing. the police watch on this, the protest continues. the cuban government has promised civil unrest will be punished and claim they have a handle on the problem. i guess it came out once in a day. it must be said that there's been significant progress at the moment with more than 36 percent of power restored and functioning reliably. further steps are being taken. in the next few hours, more power will be restored in havana and we already have more than 90 percent of the grid up and running w a major power. blackouts started on this day and was made to us by the arrival of hurricane oscar to sweat to cross the on and on sunday, leaving several people dead. but cuba, his struggle to consistently power its national grid fee is as its own good. we

cannot make struggles have led to shortages of reliable energy sources and to failure to maintain its hydro electric plants. the government blames the ongoing decades long us trade in bulk of the recent blackouts has also badly impacted a pillar with the cuban economy tourism. obviously we came here to have a good time, but we've had a bad experience as nothing in comparison to the conditions. the cubans, the top with which is why hundreds of thousands of emigrated over the last 2 years . some of the stories now making headlines around the world at this hour, according peru has sentenced the former president alejandro to later to 20 years in prison for corruption. the later was convicted of accepting more than $35000000.00 in drives from the brazilian construction, joined autograph. you asked me to report say,

the former hollywood producer harvey weinstein, has been diagnosed with a form of bone marrow cancer. he's believe to be receiving treatment in a new york prison, where he's waiting a re trial and a rate case. one of a string of sec, seduce charges brought against him. russia is president vladimir putin is hosting some 2 dozen world leaders for summit of the bricks group of emerging economies delegations are gathering in the russian city of cuz the for the blocks 1st meeting since it expanded beyond its original members result, russia, india, china, and south africa, the 9 bricks nations now make up just under half of the world's population and around one 3rd of its economic output group is putting itself for as a counterweight to the west. let's get some context, dw russia, analysts, konstantin edgar, who joins us now from zone is constantine,

how do you think rusher might flex? its diplomatic muscles as the host of this summer as well. the main idea behind the thing that puts in hosting this, somebody, it is that it should be evident to the world from pollutants points of view. that's a restaurant is supposed to that. so i, so late because of its aggression against the graeme, and as the russian propaganda likes to show both to the russians into the world, actually, the majority of the world population is with russia rather than the going to be in the western countries that are against in this respect for pull to who is diplomatic, isolated a mean such foreign policy for and it fails junk. it is very, very important. of course, the race on the death of bricks is to act as a counter to to western influence. where does the blog stand with that broad goal and what does it aim to achieve now as well,

it's very difficult to say what the block wants to achieve, especially since it's been expanding all the time. we know that for example, solid uribe invited to join the wrong. and i think that's a from being just purely an extend period cannot make a cooperation uh grouping. it has become somewhat of a couple of jo, political discussions about how to a slightly squeeze the west bar. all the other hand, if you look at the members trying to in india, can hardly agree on anything any time they are trying to prevent within themselves . most of the time, if so, the rebate joins how the tool to rock, which is it's regional, right? so there are lots of these details we chopped very difficult to order now. so in a sense, it's an important meeting of people to show that they are very important it's, it's an important meeting, a rather unimportant meeting about people who are things that are important

globally, but they're still not to the level of the western powers constant. can you just alluded to a little friction there and i want to get back to that last year. 6 new members, as you're well aware, were invited to join, including iran and saudi arabia. 2 countries often at odds, turkey by the way and nato member has expressed interest in joining, and apparently will be attending this year. how might this? some might argue complicated a way of nations effective blocks aims or genders going for? well, the problem is that it makes the agenda even more watered down, and then it is now if you for ad also the fact that there are frictions between, let's say egypt and is he off to you? so the move the members, the more it becomes, i'm going to move, the aims become, want to down in for, to speaking of this particular song that was already that successful for

a lot. they were putting love to present in president, cancelled out on some very good flimsy pretext of mine, a health problem. and serbia, which promised to send a delegation to cause on, is sending a delegation but without as president logic. so i think that's given this particular assignment, which was supposed to be a very important and i highlight lovely middle pritchens role in the world, even it went with quite some glitches already. well, less than a minute, konstantin, but i am curious, how has the war in ukraine affected relations among bricks, countries? well, what i, what, what we see is that countries like india for example, trying to be neutral in this particular, in this particular case. and as the case of the other war against the credit, frankly, there is that there is no longer a pod from wrong. that really stands with russia in his aggression against the

great chinese helping. but it's trying to go to that kind of a want to read diplomatic language. so no, it doesn't find a lot of real solidarity. although what you'll find a lot of words very kind words towards him about western gemini and stuff like that . but i don't think he's getting any practical help. that's a huge rush analyst konstantin. accurate as always, we appreciate your time and particularly your perspective. thank. as you just heard there, the war in ukraine is front and center in that east west, divide us defense. secretary lloyd austin visited you create on monday and announce the details of a $400000000.00 aid package with the embattled nation. this comes just 2 weeks before a u. s. presidential election that could put further aid in doubt. during the visit, a russian bombardment hit the eastern city of across killing 3 people. russian troops are slowly advancing toward the city. a key transportation hub that could

open further advances in the area. our corresponded mag, xander, visited the frontline city to talk to its defenders and see the devastation costs by russia's advance on the outskirts of across the this group of men has been working there howard. so since the break of dawn doesn't, so a lot of the letter, they say that artillery is the cause of war because it causes 90 percent of the damage that's inflicted on the enemy outside of the board. but the russians have more fire power and more people call it. pressure on this part of the front line is intense. don't mind the russian infantry groups keep it advancing. as seen in this voltage captured by a ukrainian surveillance drone, it's broadcast life to the command post. back on the ground,

we seek shelter as the unit prepares for potential retaliatory fire. it's been a busy morning. maybe you know, even though we drives yeah, it'd be bad cold up all of the summer. killed some of the hiding the shots at the those who stayed more or less alive. runaway who reached out to them to was moving . but besides the level besides people bump, bump, bump. so the commander of a seal is determined to defend for cross kisses and a liver and take it. they want to take low cost because if they do it will be bad. the value will be open and the russians will have a direct path to enable the people this is the city, their defend, the train stopped working weeks ago. the lack of power and water as well as rushing, shelling, have driven people out across the once was to 60000 and during the war it

became an important help for the military. soldiers would come here to take a break from the front of those days are long gone. the author of those will, that's where the jews by hotel was sitting and over there was the car. they want to pay to rea in 2023, and then the rockets hit there for the 1st time. a kid that brought that up with the city of the thrush. my hotel was attacked last year. will it be me? is commander was among those killed in a residential neighborhood, we can see the result of a recent russian attack proportionately caused by a live bomb. so when we say it was, we found one man dead in his bed. people wasn't ashley. he had gone to sleep. the school and his house received a direct hit and put your water move, put it in with some of the adjacent buildings and structures caught fire with me, except for the solace as a minor,

blaze covered 400 square meters for ship. i was just qual, uh, uh, through the summer through for the ultimate rush on the tax on the city center have decreased slightly because ukrainians have send reinforcements to the outskirts of the city. they take most of the fire. so then use of my to were back at the physician a new batch of shells just arrived. but it's a drop in the ocean ukrainian troops to say they barely receive enough military a to hold onto their positions. and certainly not to know what to change the course of the war research. if there's the negotiating piece with russia like summer calling for, can not be the answer says the commander on lots of the mostly used to the landscape, gives up some tenant trees a visit to you in 2 years. we will have to go to it again and the russians are

constantly being very quick to do that. producing shells every day. what about i give it shows you up your own. as we head back to the city, we make a stop at a brand new trench. it's one of many dog in the area, a rock across, and a potential for shadowing of battles to come. that report we should mention from dw corresponded max and are i spoke to him for more and began by asking him how confident soldiers are that they can hold across or the overall sentiment some from our recent trip to the, to the, to that part. so to these outskirts of across talk, this will just bear is that the situation at the moment is serious. it is difficult, but for the moment at least it seems, it is manageable. the russians are still 70 kilometers away from the eastern outskirts of across the ukrainians. have sent additional brigades from what we've been hearing to the brigades around $10000.00 troops to support the defense of the

city. the printing troops have dug in there. now the russians are increasing the pressure on that part of the front line also towards the north and the south. and it seems that at the moment they're not going forth across going to direct line, but rather moving south of the city. i'm trying to sort of say, solidify the southern front and potentially then later on try to in circle with and dr. ukrainian troops out of the city. similar to what we've seen and other cities in the don't us region for example, of discount or the dark region. so um, if you talk to soldiers there you have. so it doesn't say um of course we're gonna hold onto the costco there's, there's no other option, but then there are also others we talk to for less optimistic for it. we're seeing this as potentially the next buddy urban comments scenario. similar to what we've seen in a visa or in boston, it appears reiterating for crops is seen as

a key strategic town. what would happen if it does fall? so i think it's important to mention that the summer here in your career and certainly over a winter is on its way. that means it's going to get a lot more told the situation on the front line is going to change. the problem is going to turn into a muddy wasteland. sooner or later, there's going to be less daylight. this makes it a lot more difficult for any type of offensive. so if the russians decides to go to costs, which they are likely going to do, it's going to result in a lot of casualties. also trying to take a city as on, on the offensive and in the winter it's going to result in casualties for the russians, for the trains as well. but even more so, for the russians, especially looking at how the tactics that they apply for and everything they have at the defenders is to close. close the close is a important logistics hub. um they have

a train line that is partially still working. there is a highway that goes directly to the, to the pope, the trust region, the ukrainians use the city to supply parts of the phone line from there. so that's going to be a blow to their logistics and they would have to change their game up a little bit. the russians would have capture higher ground from which they can launch. hillary strikes strong strikes in the area, but most importantly across is a major city. 60000 people used to live that would be another major city taken by the russians. and that this would be a major blow to the training leadership and to the morale and the country. a commander in your report made it clear he doesn't believe russia can whole piece talk with ukraine in good faith. but of course ukraine could lose a major ally if there's a new leadership in washington after the us election. how worried or soldiers about that? when we talk to soldiers about this on the ground,

and it seems that there of course, following what's happening in the united states. but if you're fighting on the front line, you don't have the capacity to to look into the details there. what's, what's more important for them as how this translates to the situation on the ground? is the pickup truck with the shelves gonna arrive? um, are we gonna have, or are they gonna have enough apartment vehicles for their assaults, or is there going to be home or is working to protect the troops? are they going to be able to, most importantly, in future stripe, within russian territory to make a real difference? because what they've been telling us that what they have been getting so far is enough to barely hold on the knots and make a difference. and even with calls for negotiations abroad, but also here when you create, in order to be able to negotiate you, none of the sites can or the opposing side cannot have the upper hand. so you need a good negotiating position. and you know, that's essentially what they're looking at, what, what the, what the support in the future is going to look at. so dw max and reporting some

key, many things. max. meanwhile, the new nato command center for the baltic sea region has open in northern germany . the base will be led by a general and a german admiral with staff from 11 other nato member states. germany is defense minister says it's vital to protect the baltic region from russian d stabilization touch down at nato's new headquarters on the baltic sea. germany's defense minister bull has bestowed loose lands here in the german port city overall stuck to inaugurate the commando task force baltics, a new needle naval command center, the aims to boost the lines as defense, readiness in the baltic sea region. it will be responsible for planning joint exercise as ready to direct naval operations in times of peace. crises will crush as invasion of ukraine has heightened concerns that moscow could attack
