>> this is dw news, live from berlin. it has happened again, another powerful earthquake hitting southern turkey. the tremor in the region devastated by massive quakes just two weeks ago. u.s. president joe biden makes a meeting -- a trip to kyiv. >> democracy stands, the

americans to stand with you. >> biden brought another massive military aid package with half a billion dollars. the european union preparing new sanctions against russia, it will be the 10th packs -- packet of sanctions since russia invaded. and helen mirren's new drama making his debut. the british actress plays the israeli prime minister. she leads her country through the yom kippur war in 1973. i am brent goff. to all of you around the world, welcome. we begin this monday with another powerful earthquake that has at the border region between turkey and syria. it comes just two weeks after those massive quakes which

killed tens of thousands of people in the very same area. while the epicenter was in southern turkey near the town of that new, smaller sharks were reported as far away as lebanon and egypt. close to the epicenter, eyewitnesses reported people fainting in the streets and reported structural damage stabilities. other cities have also reported injuries as well as collapsed buildings. our correspondent told me what we know so far about this latest quake. >> this is a very powerful earthquake around 6.3. it struck around 8:00 in the evening, local time. this is one of the areas that has been most devastated. it caused absolute fear and pandemonium across the region.

you have to understand they are deeply traumatized from the terrible events of the last two weeks. this is across much of turkey as well. this will serve as a warning to the whole region. rescue workers are returning. the airport was very badly shaken. people have abandoned their return home and are now headed back to the earthquake region to see if they can help again. >> this new earthquake presents a new danger for the people who actually were able to survive the earthquakes from two weeks ago. we had people going back into buildings that were still standing and now those buildings

, many of them have collapsed. what do we know about some casualties? >> it is too early to say about any report on injuries or casualties as of yet. what happened was many people who have not been housed have returned in many cases to buildings that are quake damaged and we are now getting reports from the local mayor saying there have been collapsed buildings reported by a group in the region. there are no emergency efforts going on. there have been reports of dozens injured. still, the full extent of injuries and the death toll is unfolding. >> we want to emphasize we're talking about a region that was destroyed, devastated just two weeks ago. this is a region where people are still waiting to get basic necessities. >> that is right.

this adds to the massive monumental humanitarian crisis facing this region, 10 major cities in turkey have been affected by these two devastating quakes. now, this latest earthquake is just adding to the problem. they are already struggling to house the millions of people that are homeless, providing sanitation, support. this latest earthquake that struck will add to this growing problem given the fact that the situation is still getting worse rather than better. >> dorian, thank you. joe biden today made a surprise visit to kyiv days before the one-year anniversary of russia's invasion of ukraine. biden says the u.s. will send another half $1 billion of military aid to ukraine including ammunition, radars and

other equipment. biden traveled to ukraine from poland where he is on a scheduled visit. >> good morning, mr. president. >> adjuster of solidarity and a vital reminder of unity between the u.s. and ukraine against russian aggression. air raid sirens blasted across the ukrainian capital. the sound is a clear reminder that ukraine is under constant attack. making support from the u.s. more important now than ever. >> i am here to show unwavering support for your sovereignty and territorial integrity. today, i hope we will have a chance to discuss how the united states and our allies might keep a constant contact with our partners and most of -- most

effectively support your cause, mr. president. >> president zelenskyy forced his gratitude. >> what can i say? i really appreciate president biden, american society being from the very beginning of this tragedy, from the beginning of this full-scale war, being together with us. almost all of the support was from the white house to the ukraine. thank you for the support of congress. but i think that is an historic moment for our country. >> the two presidents paid tribute to the will of remembrance for the thousands of ukrainian soldiers who have lost their lives since 2014.

biden's visit comes at a crucial time in the war as the u.s. needs to keep allies unified in the support for ukraine if ukraine is to fend off russian offensives in the spring. >> as we heard there, the timing of u.s. president biden's visit to kyiv is significant. >> we are just a few days away from that one year mark. that is something that president biden cited in that press conference today. he said i remember being on the phone with president zelenskyy almost a year ago, hearing the bombs going on behind president zelenskyy and he said he would never forget that phone call. he was probably surrounded by advisers who did not think that the government in kyiv would

survive. it was usually symbolic that a year later, he is here, standing next to president zelenskyy, understandably, the anniversary has made people view ukraine -- here in ukraine nerve that russia will strike even harder near the anniversary. this has provided some comfort not only to zelensky but to the people. i was out in kyiv and the weather was a little better. here is what some people had to say about the visit. >> i think it is a good sign for our country and the entire situation. to visit us at this time is a worthy gesture from a where the president. >> maybe there will be some good surprises in store for ukraine. >> i think he has here now because the anniversary of the full-scale invasion is coming and to me, this is a symbol of support. it is a symbol that america is with us. >> let's talk a little bit about

the support that biden promised today. what kind of support are we talking about? >> important to note the united states has been the biggest supporter militarily to ukraine since the war began. the biden administration has provided 30 billion u.s. dollars in security aid. president biden announced an additional 5 million u.s. dollars on top of that and that is basically to supply more weapons and systems that have already been improved. we are talking about artillery, ammunition, rocket launchers. he did not announce the approval of any new systems with things like fighter jets which are already a huge topic you're in ukraine. that might be a little bit disappointed -- disappointing for people today.

>> this week does mark the one-year mark since the beginning of the russian invasion. how are people in ukraine coping with the prospect of yet another major russian offensive? >> major russian offensive, that has been floating around in ukraine for weeks. every day, will be here ukrainian officials say the defense of has begun. i would say people have gotten desensitized to it but there is a sense they have learned to live with that risk and that danger. when that air raid alarm was going on earlier, people would have to go to shelters in a situation like that. there was no panic on the street. i would say there is a sense of resilience but also a sense that

nobody wanted to be marking this anniversary. there is still a glimmer of hope that may the end is in sight -- maybe the end is in sight. >> many were expecting a very quick war, they were expecting the ukrainian capital to fall to the russians now. now we have the u.s. president as a guest of the ukrainian president. no one would have been predicting that one year ago. >> absolutely. you can definitely see the surprise on people's faces as he walked down the street here. one cannot really overstate what this has done for ukraine, bringing it closer to the west. president zelenskyy's first meeting with president biden was in -- it was two years ago. fast-forward and now the united

states is here. >> after the u.s. and the u.k. and -- the u.s. and u.k., germany is one of the major providers of weapons and troops to ukraine. ukraine's armed forces are being schooled in how to drive and use german-made leopard 2 tanks. they are being sent to the front lines. these tanks are critical to pushing back pressure. dw's political correspondent was with those ukrainian soldiers today in northern germany. >> the training that ukrainian soldiers are going through here is more intense than usual. six days a week for 12 hours per day. german soldiers are highly

motivated. germany plans to train up to 9000 ukrainian soldiers here in the country. >> the war in ukraine has revived memories of the second world war in europe. the foreign ministers are meeting in brussels ahead of the first anniversary of the russian invasion. they will be discussing plans on how to jointly procure ammunition to be sent to ukraine and the european union is preparing all for sanctions against russia. the people expect to improve the new sanctions by the end of this week. delivering ammunition to ukraine is now the top priority. >> certainly, russia is on the offensive and it will continue.

we have to continue i was, unwavering support to ukraine. that time is of essence. we need to respond quickly. not only more support but to provide it quick. >> our correspondent told me more about what joseph said about those probable sanctions against russia. >> first of all, good to note is sanctions are not across the line yet. diplomats i have spoken to say discussions are still tricky and of course, they now need to get their skates on to reach that self-imposed deadline of the one-year anniversary of that fateful day, almost one year ago

when russia possible scale invasion of ukraine took place. in terms of the content of these sanctions, they did not want to be drawn to deeply on that but they did point to an expected export ban of key technologies burring european countries from exporting to russia. you talk about construction material. those are the things the european union thinks pressure might use to fuel its war machine. there might be some disappointment because ukraine would like to see russia's nuclear sector targeted by sanctions. that looks unlikely although he said he is going to come forward with proposals likely on joint procurement of ammunition to give to ukraine in white star terms, it looks like the tank in ukraine is getting empty and it is now urging to provide kyiv with ammunition. >> what else did he talk about

in terms of eu foreign policy? >> one topic that was really hanging over these talks is that report coming out of the united states that china may be considering arming russia. beijing has strongly refuted those allegations. they said it would be something that would mark an important moment. he said that was the most diplomatic language he could find if china were to pursue this. beijing says it will come forward with its own piece proposals for ukraine. >> it will be interesting to see what comes out of that. rosie, thank you. here is a look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. demonstrators gathered outside

the european parliament and the belgian capital. they are demanding that the eu designate the iranian revolutionary guard as a terrorist organization. north korea has testfired two more ballistic missiles. it comes after the u.s., japan and south korea held joint air force drills. the drills themselves took place after an earlier north korean missile test. the u.s. and its conduct will determine whether or not the pacific is turned into a firing range. at least 36 people have been killed in heavy flooding and landslides in the state of são paulo. a torrential rain hit on carnival weekend. rescue teams are struggling to find survivors. helen mirren, you see them right behind me here.

in her new film, she plays the former israeli prime minister. the film depicts her time in power in the 60's and 70's, in particular during the yom kippur war of 1973. david levitz is telling me more about this film. >> it was pretty shocking to see helen mirren on the big screen looking a lot more like the prime minister than helen mirren. that is the result of four hours of hair and makeup she went through every day including prostheses. helen mirren said this was a person she really admired and it was an incredible experience.

we do see her as the matriarch of a nation who is under a lot of stress. she is facing multiple existential crises. at the same time, she is known for the yom kippur war where israel is no providing for its existence against syria and egypt. any decision she makes could result in the deaths of hundreds or thousands but she has to make these decisions because all the powerful men around her are having meltdowns and she is the only one with and even had. -- head. all at the same time, she is battling lymphoma, the disease would take her life. there is a lot of talk about this movie and britain were helen mirren was -- is from.

it was about whether or not helen mirren is the right one for the role. many saying that the role should have gone to a jewish actress. the team said if the casting was good enough for the prime minister's grandsons, it was good enough for them. >> i want to ask you about another movie premiering this week starring john malkovich entitled syndicate. what is that about? >> this is probably the darkest comedy i have ever seen in my entire life, it is about the ancient roman philosopher. it is a comment on present politics. he really went against his own principles to make a lot of money in that job which comes and bites him when he gets bored of him and he tells him he has

to kill himself. the movie is a tough one because we see john malkovich talking about bravery in the face of death ad nauseam even as he does not succeed in killing himself in multiple ways, this is not a comedy you want to take your mom or a date to. fantastic performances but not the one for everyone. >> so much for the light movie reviewing assignments today, my friend. thank you. football now and tomorrow night, livable -- liverpool and real madrid will be playing each other after the frightening events that marred last year. fans had to wait for hours before getting into the stadium as police used tear gas on the crowd. the governing body of european football has finally accepted

responsibly for the chaos but for many fans, the scars remain. >> dangerous questions. unprovoked gas attacks and terrifying scenes of violence. the liverpool fans remember for all the wrong reasons. >> this was the champions league final. >> paris brought back painful memories of the 1989 stadium disaster. ted's cousin was among the people who died. >> we were thinking someone was going to die outside. we were getting messages on our phones. >> even when fans traveled back

from the stadium, the nightmare was not over. >> it was the locals. >> ted is still coming to terms with what happened to him that night. >> when you're in a wheelchair all day, it is not that good. my wheelchair was unread. i carried that for a while. >> the apology is welcome but the real test is what comes next. >> if change is to come, it has to come from your ava -- the league. >> and the german republic, dortmund could -- cap there

hopes alive. they netted two goals on their way to a 4-1 victory. >> dortmund have not lost a match yet in 2020 three. fresh off the champions league victory over chelsea midweek, the men in black had the chance to put pressure on the table leaders with a victory over relegation threatened stuff. somehow, the smoke might have helped. thus -- the homesite hit first. marco royce fired toward the goal. it looked wide. dortmund doubled their lead shortly before the break with the dutchman doing the damage.

they were caught napping and luca rifled one off the crossbar into the net to bring the visitors within one goal. after captain marco royce won a free, converted -- he converted the centerpiece itself. another lego added to close out this impressive performance by dortmund. 4-1 the final score. >> you are watching dw news from berlin. here is a reminder of those two top stories we are following for this hour. a powerful new earthquake has hit the border region between turkey and syria just two weeks after massive quakes killed tens of thousands of people in the same area.

witnesses say there has been further damage buildings in the disaster zone. president joe biden paid a surprise visit to ukraine and pledged half a billion euros in additional military aid to the country. this is his first trip to ukraine since russia launched the invasion of the country almost a year ago. this is dw news, from berlin. after a short break, i will be back to take you through the week.
