brent: this is "dw news" live from berlin. this battle could determine the fate of the entire into the country. also tonight, schoolteacher is dead and another fighting for his life one day after a car

plowed into their group on the street. the driver, we understand, is now in psychiatric care. and the committee investigating the generally six attack on the u.s. capitol takes its hearings to primetime tv tonight saying they are ready to show the attempt to overturn the 2020 election as a coordinated effort, and that it would otherwise to the top. plus, thailand giving a conditional green light to growers and consumers of marijuana. in a country known for its strict anti-drug laws, many say it is high time for a change. ♪ i'm brent goff. to our viewers watching on pbs in the united states and to all of you around the world, welcome. it is a battle, urban warfare that could decide the future of articles of eastern ukraine.

the fight for the city of sievierodonetsk. ukrainian truth facing russian forces there say the battle is being waged house to house and made her ongoing aggression bombardment and massive casualties on both sides. reporter: sievierodonetsk is being pounded into rubble. [explosions] reporter: the ukrainian governor of the surrounding last region says its forces will be pushed back if the bombardment continues. >> if the volume and density of the artillery shelling stays as intense as it is now about the time will come and their positions will be entirely destroyed. there will be no place for the soldiers to hide. then they will most likely have to move to new positions. reporter: those new positions could well end up being here in lacey that's. but sievierodonetsk's twin city

has also come under intensive shelling. ukrainian authorities say they have been trying to evacuate residents, but thousands of them are either unwilling or unable to flee. for this city just 30 kilometers to the south, provides some signs of what may await them. footage from russian state media sure the town which felt to russia after fierce fighting, lying in ruins. in a sign that pro-russian forces are tightening their region, cleanup has begun in the donbas under their control, with a clear message sent to you greeting fightersn thursday. a separatist caught in the region threatened three foreign captured fighters to death. the two britons and one moroccan were convicted for being mercenaries after a trial that lasted three days. the u.k. has slammed the ruling as a sham judgment.

but with fresh opening 1000 investigations into other captured soldiers, they are unlikely to be the last to face trial or even death. brent: our correspondent in kyiv told me more about today's court ruling. reporter: these three citizens are the first ones's in one of these courts. of course it is not recognized by the russian government's. the government to do not recognize the republics that have put this case on trial. the fighters that were not listed in ukraine army as soldiers. there are lots of foreign nationals serving in the ukraine army and they are treated as prisoners of war. there is a bit of say, there are

many propaganda items about foreign fighters it seems that russia propaganda has focused on the recently and that may be part of the story here. russia has several narratives about this war going on. one is about ukraine and ukrainian nazism, ukraine being controlled by nazis that needs to be liberated, and the other is about a fight against the west. it results in taking control of ukraine, overthrowing the ukrainian government. they have focused a little bit on these western fighters, there have been more reports about them on russian tv and that may be one of the reasons why this. brent: trial has been held.

brent:, now basically portrayed them as mercenaries sent by western countries. brent: it would seem they would consider the battle over the donbas to be done, to be history, and that it firmly belongs to russia. >> russia never annexed these territories. they kept them as formerly separate. it is hard to say because they are not recognized by many countries in the world. but they are still formerly separate entities, and the russian state is very procedural about these things. that means that as long as there is no formal annexation of these territories, they would keep up the fiction that these are completely independent republics . brent: our correspondent with the latest in kyiv. thank you. the cost of mounting a military campaign deck this is massive.

that's the tanks, missiles, fuel and food for an entire army. russia is believed to be spending 900 million euros per day in ukraine, firing thousands of missiles, many estimated to cost one million euros each, just for one missile. analysts say ukrainian forces have destroyed hundreds of russian tanks. those tanks also said to come at a price tag of about one million euros each. end with an even. 's -- enter the sinking of the ukrainian ship in the sea will cost moscow over 100 million euros. analysts say the kremlin's ability to sell oil and gas will allow it to finance the fighting for some time to come. for more on this, i want to bring in a defense analyst with

rasmussen global and a former nato policy director. it is good to see you again. let's talk about the numbers here. 900 million euros a day, how low can russia keep this up? i know it is selling oil and natural gas, but is there a limit to this? reporter: the cost of the war in ukraine is the same as the income russia gets from the europeans buying oil and gas. so i think that one thing we can do and we must do probably quicker than what european member states have committed to do is to stop buying russian oil and gas and not feeding the putin war machine.

one shouldn't underestimate the russian strategy. meaning that even if they are broke, even if they cannot sound their natural resources, putin has a controlled hand on the country's resources and its riches and consisting in the long haul that war. so it is normally about economics here, it is about the battlefield. this is why the weapons systems that we provide to ukrainians matter. because adolescent russian forces fail and they are not able to advance anymore and achieve any objective, they are not going to stop. we have to make them stop on the battlefield and not just with marcus and with economics. brent: if that is the goal, does ukraine have the financial wherewithal to do that? it'll side has to have a

lifeline economically to continue fighting -- it also has to have a lifeline economically to continue fighting. guest: ukraine needs morales 5 billion euro month to survive and sustain this war. 5 billion euros per month just to sustain this war. the reconstruction effort already represents something like half a trillion euros to rebuild the country, based on the russian destruction so far. so this is indeed a battle for numbers and economics. again, and as a ukrainian forces are provided with what they need to at least stop and potentially push back on the russian advance , they will not stop the economic bleeding of their country.

brent: we have a lot of countries here in europe are looking to increase their defense spending. they seem level of arms, an arms race here in europe? guest: i think an arms race is a very particular way to put it. us rebuilding our defense to protect our values and our interests. that had already started after russian's first war against ukraine, after 2014, and it is only going to accelerate now because as the german chancellor said, you needed military power if you want to defend your values. . this is the sad reality we are in, but we can no longer ignore it. we are in for a very long haul as far as putin is in power and as far as china is also having aggressive missions.

brent:. brent: as always, we appreciate your time and your insights. thank you. guest: thank you. international atomic energy agency has accused iran of removing 27 security cameras monitoring its nuclear program. iran's nuclear agency released a video showing two iaea cameras being switched off. the move could be a fatal blow to any nuclear deal. : parliament has approved a deal to abolish the supreme court's disciplinary shape. it had been accused of undermining judicial independence. the european union made dissolving that chamber a condition for receiving pandemic aid. supporters of the british journalist who has been missing in the amazon jungle since andy have called on authorities to step up search efforts. don phillips and an indigenous

expert vanished while on a reporting trip in the remote area popular with coke smugglers and illegal fishers. the european central bank has announced it would raise interest rates for the first time in over a decade. the bank signaling that rates could raise a quarter of a percent in july, with more coming in september. it has also ended a long-running stimulus scheme. the ecb is trying to bring down record high inflation in the eurozone, worried that it could trigger a wage followed. it is following the u.s. fed and the bank of england which have raised rates and are promising further raises to raining inflation. for this and more i am joined by my colleague from our business department. this rate hike, a modest one,

will it be enough to tame inflation? guest: we are at the beginning. we know there is one rate hike in july, another in december. this will be a journey reaction to the situation as it develops. what we know from the plan is that the ecb will be stopping its policy of actively stimulating the economy. they have been making it easier for businesses and people to get loans during the pandemic, greasing the wheels of the economy. but we have a lot of cash chasing fewer supplies and this is pushing on prices. so, yes. brent: you look at what the u.s. fed and the bank of england have done, they announced these hikes months ago. there was some reluctance by the ecb to do that until now. why is that? guest: people were complaining that the fed waited too long. economists responding today,

saying that they are not doing enough. even the ecb themselves said that even with this plan, they expect inflation to be above target in 2024. christine lagarde has been clear about differences between the u.s. and europe. the labor market, the employment is not nearly as tight in the euro area as it is in the u.s. and that, is where we start getting this wage spiral situation. but she did say they are seeing wages come up in the euro-area. they don't see that as a major factor knocking on prices, but it is something they are watching with concern. brent: when you look at the picture, how much can central banks do in these conditions? they want to fight inflation, but there is so much more that has to be mitigated. guest: this is the main reason why the ecb and the fed had insisted inflation was transitory. the ecb had been trying for years to get consumer prices to

go up and they couldn't get them to budge. then we had the pandemic hit, entangling supply chains and making it harder to get our hands on goods, raising prices. it started to sort itself out early this year, but that the ukrainian war began. the whole point is to have price stability. you have to lose to it, and they have to act. brent: consumers hope it will happen sooner rather than later. christine, thank you. a german court has ordered the driver of a car that plowed into pedestrians in berlin on wednesday to be placed in psychiatric care. he reportedly had a history of mental health problems. the 29-year-old man killed a schoolteacher and seriously injured 31 others, including some students. a second teacher is said to be fighting for his life. authorities believe the man intentionally drove his car onto the sidewalk.

dw correspondent sends us this report. reporter: the and tourists are back on what is one of berlin's busiest shopping streets, wendy after the durable incident that took place here. it is almost like life has gone back to normal, but there are still signs of the incident that occurred here yesterday every where. police have circled evidence and further down the street, people have laid flowers and candles in memory of those that were injured were killed. this attack has raised memories of another counter-attack here in berlin. just across the road in 2016, a man plowed into a busy christmas market, killing 12 people and injuring seven. back then, the attack was ideologically motivated. this time it seems different, it has been confirmed that the man who drove his car

into people here suffered from mental health issues. he had been questioned by police and seemed incoherent and confused, police try to make sense of his statements with the help of an interpreter. brent: i will correspondent here in berlin. it was a day that nearly pushed u.s. democracy to the brink, january 6, 2021, bob donald trump supporters stormed the u.s. capitol, trying to overturn the joe biden's presidential election victory. four people died, hundreds were injured, and 18 months later a panel investigating the insurrection is putting the hearings on primetime tv to show americans what it has learned about high-level involvement in that fateful day. >> please welcome the 45th president rick berg it started with speeches to an angry crowd, including one from former president trump. >> we fight. we fight like hell.

if you don't fight like hell, you will not have a country anymore. reporter: shortly after, a mob made its way down pennsylvania avenue to the capitol building. they scaled the building, broke rough police lines" in the corridors. >> it was a fraudulent -- >> tramp eventually told the owd to g home by a video message, hours after the rampage started. but the questions were just beginning, specific faith -- specifically about the white house's involvement in the days events. >> the idea that all of this was just a rowdy demonstration that spontaneously got a little bit out of conol is absurd. you don''t almost cannot cover the u.s. government by accident. reporter: the house select committee on january 6 has interviewed more than 1000 people, as well as reviewing video footage of the day and phone and computer records.

press reports" documents related to the committee have made some stunning revelations. many centered around former white house chief of staff mark meadows. he was with the president for much of the day, and was contacted by multiple republicans within the capitol, begging him to get trump to order his supporters to go home. it is unclear how much you have coordinated with people involved in the riot. meadows has refused to testify, as have many of trump's closest allies. trump's ongoing hold on the republican party has made the committee's work more difficult. most republicans have openly attacked the committee's work and say it is a partisan hit job . but democrats hope the hearings will show how far the white house was willing to go to keep trump in power. brent: will this be must-see tv? i asked our correspondent in

washington what we should expect from the hearings. reporter: this is good to be a huge event. what you can expect is a quest for transparency, accountability, but you can also expect a lot of showmanship and with that, of course, it is not about politics. as hinted in the report, republicans don't have any of that, they say that this is all for naught, basically, all showmanship. doesn't serve any purpose. democrats on the other side say hello, this is the first time we can show the public, who has a right to be informed, of the results of our investigation, which is that former president donald trump was involved and he knew everything about what was going on january 6, and more. brent: ahead of these hearings, if you look at the u.s. media, we have seen democrats and

republicans rattling their sabers, if you will. what does that mean? >> what that means is that this is a prelude of what happened today. this is one of six public hearings planned and the final report for the select committee to investigate what happened on january six is expected by the end of the year. but both parties, what both sides did was send in their pundits and within politicians , committee members and others in the senate into the airwaves to basically drum up support for what they're doing. again, republicans saying this is nothing. that is why, for example, fox, a big conservative network and arguably a stakeholder for the gop and for the republicans and conservatives in america, is not broadcasting live this hearing

today. they have coverage of this. basically pushed to a sister network within the fox families. everybody else is going to broadcast this, and that is the result of months and months and months of pundits from the left, the right, the middle, working towards this. brent: if you can't watch it, you can see it. we understand the fbi today arrested a republican candidate running for governor in michigan . they arrested this candidate for his role in the capitol riots. what is he charged with? guest: the charges are misdemeanor charges related to the january 6 incursion. that means he probably breached the capitol, made his way into the capitol. i see it on many videos from this day, from january 6, 2021.

and he is about to see the judge, around now, for his arraignment hearing. he is a former realtor, gubernatorial candidate in michigan, trying to become the republican candidate in the gubernatorial race against a democratic governor. with this arrest, this is good to be problematic for him at least. brent: stefan simons with the latest tonight, a preview of what is ahead on primetime tv in the u.s.. thank you. . thailand has become the first asian country to legalize the growing and consuming of marijuana although smoking in public is still banned. and when offered in food and drink, its strength will have to be limited. in other words, no thai

high. reporter: there is plenty of public interest. [cheers and applause] reporter: and hif and first customer -- a triumph and first customer. with options resembling a fast food menu. closely scrutinizing the product, and buying some apparel as well. to mark the occasion. [laughter] . >> i got here last night. after work i showered and took the bus. i knew the shop was still closed so i waited with some years and i watched the staff getting ready. i wanted to witness the beginning of change. reporter: but too much change is not what authorities want. the cannabis on sale is low

potency and people are being warned against smoking in public in creating a stink. violations can bring fines and even jail. beyond the head shops, getting the is not something everyone approves of. i feel like people are not ready for that legalization. they need to be educated on how to use cannabis and also the limitations. because as we all know, it could cause more harm than benefit. reporter: there are also concerns about unwanted drug tourism, that bangkok could become an asian amsterdam. others are less worried. >> the country has a lot more to offer than just being known for cannabis. i think it is a beautiful, beautiful part of the world, so i don't think cannabis being legalized would make it become anymore. reporter: so for better or

worse, thailand's cannabis experiment is open for busess. brent: a remainder of the top stories this hour, and forces continued to pound the eastern ukraine city of sievierodonetsk. a ukrainian commander says the battle is being fought house to house. the outcome could decide the fate of the entire eastern donbass region. you're watching dw news. after a short break i will be , back to take you through "the day." stick around. we will be right back. ♪

coordinated effort to overturn the results of the election in 2022. they will air previously unseen videos of his former aides and his daughter and son-in-law. here is the democratic speaker of the house nancy pelosi. >> i believe tonight will be an open enough the narration. the narrative of what happened. as an assault on our democracy, on our capitol in a very violent way for a specific purpose to undermine the constitution of the united states. on a day set aside for the peaceful transfer of power. anchor: our reporter has more on what the house committee is looking into. reporter: examining over 100 thousand documents and interviewing 1000 people, over the course of your nine lawmakers have been

investigating what drove thousands of trump loyalists to storm the capitol. they have examined donald trump's role in these riots in which five people died and 140 police officers were injured. >> we found evidence of planning and premeditated activity. the idea that all of this was just a roadie demonstration -- rowdy demonstration that got out of control spontaneously is absurd. reporter: after the 2020 presidential election, donald trump contested his defeat for weeks. he called on his supporters to demonstrate in washington on the same day congress was to formally certify the results. it will be brought live across the country. >> it is critical we have an investigation into the events of

january 6 to ensure something like that can never happen again and the work of this committee is crucial to that effort. reporter: many people are expected to testify. the commission itself does not have the power to bring charges, but it can turn over its evidence to the u.s. justice department, which is conducting its own investigation to identify and arrest participants. anchor: the fbi has arrested a republican candidate for governor in michigan for his role on the attack in the capitol building. he is facin misdemeanor charges including committing violence on restricted grounds. prosecutors say he was caught on video in a crowd of people who were assaulted and pushing past law enforcement. his office has not responded to the charges. a russian backed court has sent two british soldiers and a

moroccan man to death. they are the firstborn fighters to be sent since the start of the war. moscow has open 1000 cases into what it calls crimes against peace committed by the ukrainian government. joining us now is our moscow correspondent, daniel hawkins. authorities in domestic abuse of these three men of being mercenaries or terrorists. but that is not what ukraine and the british government nursing. who are these men? reporter: different pictures here. they claim these men are terrorists who came to the country to seize power and overthrow the constitutional order. charged with serious crimes indeed. families saying these men were active duty personnel serving with the ukraine military long

before this conflict began. at least one case had close personal ties to the country, including a wife. this is why this has been such a shop and soak strongly condemned. -- shock and so strongly condemne we understand ty have a month to appeal this decision if the worst ca happens they will face the death sentence. they can also appeal for clemency and if ahead -- the head shows leniency, the sentence can be commuted to life in prison. the legal process is likely to drag out over the coming weeks.

unfortunately, they are going to become part of a widening bargain campaign. anchor: they are able to appeal. what do you think the political repercussions will be? porter: a presidential spokesman raised an interesting point. the u.k. authorities have no direct links. he said that by entering talks that could set the scene for some sort of pseudo-recognition of these republics. that is very far from the truth. this raises questions about future prisoners of war.

if voters think this is the treatment they will receive they will certainly think twice about surrendering. that will probably change battlefield dynamics. it also opens the stage for these men to be part of political poems. --pawns. all of these featured in behind the scenes negotiations, it is likely that the republic backed by moscow will try to get concessions from the u.k., whether that be in terms of sanctions, prisoner exchanges, we do t know. it is early days. it is likely that is what will happen.

very tragic for these men's families and something that should not be happening, but this is just the reality here. these men are going to become part of a wider game which we will see playing out over the coming week says that appeal goes ahead. anchor: iran has removed more than two dozen surveillance cameras at its nuclear facilities. this could be a fatal blow to negotiations to revive the 2015 nuclear deal. catherine clifford has the story. reporter: a window of three weeks remains to restore monitoring otherwise they will be unable to maintain continuity of knowledge around iran's nuclear tease. this would be a fatal blow to

the 2015 nuclear deal, with negotiations stalled since april. >> now we are adding this to the picture. as you can see, it is not a very nice one. my application is to persevere, to continue proposing solutions and to continue to propose we work together with iran. reporter: since the deal collapsed following the u.s.'s withdrawal in 2018, i ran has been running centrifuges and has a growing stockpile of enriched uranium. on the streets of iran, some people called for cooperation. the decision comes as the iaea boards cited western powers
