from cbc news the world this hour i'm neil hurland a dire warning from the president of ukraine at the united nation's general assembly volodemir zelensky urged global leaders to do more to end russia's war or risk it getting worse margaret evans reports a big week in new york for ukrainian president vladimir zelensky his address to the gathered nations and appeal to save Ukraine, and with it, he said, faith in the international community. Peace depends on all of us. His address followed some unexpected cheerleading from the U.S. President, Donald Trump, posting on social media, that Ukraine could be in a position to regain all its territory from Russia with European help.

Police in Dallas say a deadly shooting at an immigration and customs enforcement facility was a targeted attack. A sniper opened fire killing one detainee, injuring two more,

sparking more fears about politically motivated violence. Katie Simpson reports. Authorities say a sniper had positioned himself on a nearby roof and started firing indiscriminately at the building, hitting a secluded entrance area where ice agents loaded passengers in and out of vans. The FBI is investigating this incident as an act of targeted violence. Joe Rothrock, the FBI special agent in charge, says the suspect was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

No ICE agents were hurt in the attack, but authorities believe they were the target. Early evidence that we've seen from rounds that were found near the suspected shooter contain messages that are anti-ice in nature. The work done by ICE agents carrying out the Trump administration's mass deportation agenda is a source of intense division across the U.S. And the Department of Homeland Security says violent attacks against ice agents are significantly on the rise.
