military infrastructure. the ukrainian officials are accused in moscow if facing civilian areas. a convoy of russian trucks has been seen rolling into ukraine, but the president vladimir zalinski said to have refused an american offer to evacuate, insisting he will stay and fight him door. uncle, great, good morning ukrainians. there has been a loss of fake information online saying that i am calling on our army to lay down arms and to evacuate. listen, i am here. we will not lay down any weapons. we will defend our state because our weapon is our truth. and the truth is that this is our land, our country, and our children are, and we will defend all of that. that's all i wanted to tell you. a man and southern ukraine has been filmed, standing in front of the russian military. on friday, president lensky asked europeans with combat experience to take up arms to defend

his country. accusing the waste of being too slow to help. tens of thousands of people crossing into neighboring countries in search of safety to romania. they crossed by barge with a line of vehicles waiting to enter. holland is set to stretch 15 kilometers. the un says at least 120000 people have fled ukraine in the past 48 hours. and that number's increasing by the minute. meanwhile, more russian troops are heading towards ukraine, and there are warnings, including from french president emanuel crohn of a long war ahead. alexia brian al jazeera. why under simmons is in kia, where there was heavy shelling and fighting? we've been hearing and sometimes seeing some smoke rising, but basically some shelling has been going on. we had a wailing siren from

a distance and there's been some small arms fire. quite close. i don't think the 2 connected the small arms fire from it feels like was certainly less than a kilometer. and then the shelling quite heavy for a short while. nothing right now. we think that's to the north of the city. i'm looking over here now at the bridge, the 2 main bridges on the main north, not serial routes. ok, that's very quiet. nothing going on there whatsoever. those bridges are the ones where you see you've been seeing images of, of reserve is lying on their stomachs with rifles extended intent on defending it. no matter what the feeling is that, that the, the frenzy of fire from the sky miss isles, relentlessly, in various areas. of the city, particularly in the west, where an armored column was actually repelled by ukrainian forces. using missiles

showed amounts of missiles hitting tanks, they withdrew, but there is still a parent. they going to be resistance there. when we do know that is an area called very sty hska, where there is a metro station that is about no more than about 7 kilometers away. also to the north and north west. a lot of fighting the columns tanks on the personnel carriers missile launches being used in various parts, are peeling off. and there is a, there are various reports about the columns, intent on encircling the city. and then some reports of their intent on going full in some parts of the of the columns. but we've heard from the defense minister, but as far as the center of the city is concerned, it is untouched. although there have been some hits on some areas but, but where we are now, it is the, it is effectively in the, the storm there is,

there is some, there is some safety being here at the moment, or the office, the during the cruise missile strikes and so on and so forth, not a safe place to be as far as civilians are concerned, the sort of conversations that are going on now. how to get out is it too late? how far down can we get in terms of shelters metro stations? the deepest shelters of all, and probably the safest but the chaos thick and very little food. as a food people have managed to get from places, supplies, running out, or round a feel. we've a water in some parts and a mood of distill panic. really, i mean it's, there is also an anger and resolve which we're sure to call us is that intertwine. and the feeling is that this is not just a fight for life. it's a fight for the life of the nation, for the life of independence, or been

a smith joins me live now from the russian capital moscow. so bernard, we, what a, what's russia saying about the possibility of talks between russia and ukraine and ms tore this? well, russia has said interestingly that they are vitamin puts in on friday, ordered a pause to the invasion of ukraine because he thought that the ukrainian government was repaired except round the table and have talks. and they said that when rick ray ukraine rejected those talks. ready russia resumed what it called it's operational. vladimir putin ordered a resumption of what it, what it calls it's operation in ukraine. now we do know the problem is the landscape of the last few days has been calling the talks with the russians. it's understood that the russians agreed and said they would have talked in minsk on friday, but ukraine said no, they want to have them in war sore. and russia had said they'd heard nothing since

. now this all could be, of course, or this is all just the information, the russians a telling us. but it seems that the avenue there was a genuine prospect of talk that they say that they were them, which is why i'm a boot in paused and the invasion. but remember, we don't know what terms the russians would be laying down for them. but we know that vladimir putin as ordered has suggested that ukraine an army over throw her vladimir lensky. it would be easier for you, he said in an earlier speech. and we also know that the russian foreign minister has said that the ukrainians must surrender before we can progress before that there can be any further progress or any sort of ceasefire. so those that give you an idea of how vladimir putin might be viewing on what conditions any talks if they happen a held and learned. how is russia reacting to the various sanctions that have been placed on it over the last couple of days in the leafing isolation?

yes, were beginning to see the political and physical isolation of russia take place now to meet him at medford dev. he's the deputy head of the russian security council and of course a former president. he's shrugged off the risk of sanctions. the sanctions. he says it's a good reason to pull out of dialogue on strategic nuclear stability. and potentially he says to pull out from talks on the new strategic arms reduction treaty start that was assigned in 2010 and extended to 2021. the also says, member that says he was really unfair decision by the council of europe to suspend russian membership. and he said it's a good reason for us to reintroduce the death penalty for serious crimes. membership of the council of europe means you cannot have the death penalty. and on a practical level, russia has banned other airlines from its air space. the czech republic, bulgaria,

and ad baltic in lithuania and the polish airlines is up to other airlines of all countries of bonding. each other which increases rushes, isolation from the rest of the world. hasn't been at thank you, bernard smith in moscow now, alexander protest, he is a senior russian alice, he says president vladimir putin will feel the economic consequences of attacking ukraine. people are already talking that the heart of the life would be hard, especially large already or, or economy because of coffee and so on. and so some people actually are saying that they approve a premium simply ukrainian flags which made you not the good thing because it's divides a society, but many russian civil dose and support who do not justify his actions. i have many friends for hard like witness, and they say this is not a protect. even the fighting wasn't been boss. even you paid has attacked on bus. you should use other means. other means diplomacy, un un peacekeepers. but to adela to attack, this will be, you know, iran,

iraq war might actually have something like this. i, you brain forces are strong. they are knowing the russians. because many brain officers know the russian tactics because probably they were the same. you know, during the soviet union, so some things have changed by many things are remain the same. so yes, economy cost would be, it was the western sanctions. but you know what i talked to a friend of mine and economy is very respect that school is that not only economy, but also moral cause. you also see the football championship is canceled in some bitter sport, all rob the misconduct. valerie, your dog is a very talented man, but also such food support was banned from new york, carnegie hall. so this is also more about musicians will not come. i just will not be able to come some people on the was a focus conference will be tonight, whatever circus artist will not be performing russia,

my turn into something like enough of you are still head on edge, you know why bread could become a rarity, global we prices surging because of the russian ukraine war and making development for the upcoming football. well qualified between russia and poland ah getting wetter in central and some parts of the philippines may not be obvious from this will be in the forecast. just 2nd. there's dark blues, occasion, the orange tops all the sign, but the wet weather has been for the west for a long time. been sitting in the far south of thailand peninsula, malazan, reaching down towards singapore. this is all moving away. so it's now the north of sumatra chic where it's like to be yet again, fairly wet, wet and flooding,

i think. and i change in weather type. it doesn't look obvious, i know. but up in japan where we got snow falling again, briefly on sunday that it tends to die down. but the, at it's not causing it is much warmer, but 30 degrees in beijing in the sunshine plus wanting how big, which has been sub 0 for last talk to 3 months. i think i most of child enjoying fine weather now, hong kong, back up to 21. out. 8 degree couple of days not so long ago. and here's the picture for monday. not hugely different. still cold enough to some snow in some parts of china bits. hardly wide spread for india to is a hint of a change in the feel was you got the ne monsoon bringing shouts is for lanka, knowles, and play. it looks sunny and fine, but a quality new new delhi has recently improved ah, international politics to the global pandemic. and everything in between. it did go

back to poor people and we are planning to ensure the safety of women. what happens with people actually have more? why is the u. k. feel hostile to try and make 3? all of us join me if i take on the line with men of the misconceptions and meet the contradiction. timing. get up front on al jazeera. oh, a again, you're watching as 0 mind about top stories this alley explosions have been heard in part of as russian forces continue, their assault at apartment building came under attack. key of mass says 35 people,

including children, were injured in the midst south strikes. occurred has been extended, and anyone seen on the streets of night will be considered the enemy. another launch conway of russian trucks is cross the border into ukraine. moscow sending more supplies in the fight and continue ukraine's president says, his government is still in charge of kiev and key points around it while demons zaleski says kia has derailed russia attack. he's russians to pressure president. let me put into a band in his war place. well yeah, the ukranian president said he refused the u. s. offered to evacuate him from rosalind jordan as war on that from washington. this question has come up several times to u. s. officials this week, and the most that they will say is that they are consulting with presidents zalinski and with his leadership team,

a bell to security issues. but they're more focused on helping the ukranian government defend itself from the russian invasion. we have an official statement from the secretary of state antony blinking, indicating that tug using an authority given to him by the president joe biden. he has authorized the dispersal of another $350000000.00 in security assistance to k of in order to help them defend their country from russian troops. now this is something that a sensibly would mean trying to get equipment into the country, but given that there are of russian military incursions for almost all sides of ukraine's borders, this is going to be a difficult task. but the u. s. government is adamant that it is going to provide the ukrainians, the assistance that they need to defend their country. opponent interior ministry

says a 100000 ukrainians have poured into the country since the russian soap again. many, i've been taking temporary shelter in holes and train stations. same bas robbie has moved from east and poland where ukrainians are crossing the border. well, here at the semester, the train station just across the board from ukraine. people from the trainer arriving here by train in the town, and he's been coming in waves. now he's another busy period. let me give you a sense of what's happening around here. we have people that have arrived that are being registered and they're not being registered as refugees. these are people who are being registered for transport out of this area into other parts of europe. the government is helping get people to friends and family helping to relocate them. finding them temporary housing, but the government, the officials aren't the only ones here that are doing that kind of work. we've seen volunteers with signs made out of cardboard, offering people a free place to stay free rides into poland and further across europe and putting

berlin and prague and denmark. so really here it gives you a sense that what's happening here is touching every european country in some way. now, from the busy part of the train station, we're going to go to another hallway where people are getting some much needed rest . now, on the me, in the main hall you, people are enjoying probably their 1st hotmail and days. and here in a quieter part of the train station there is a makes, it shows where people can get some sleep, get some rest, and get the free press. what is no doubt been incredibly arduous journey to try to cross from you quin into poland interface the parts of europe. we've spoken to people here who say that they've lost family members behind. a young mother was enforced to pay for wealth of their husbands. knowing that it might be for the last time men fighting aids for 18. 60 many billing stuff. since the fight in,

in you trans, again, since the rush, the invasion, expected intern ukrainian on forces to try to hold the country, hold the capital and hold on to main. of course, meltzer is a senior spokesman for the un high commissioner for refugees. he says the solidarity shown by neighboring countries is touching we're talking about thousands of people. so in the 1st 48 hours about 75000 people from the ukraine have arrived in poland alone. and he had that part of the border. like in the yellow pots, also long lines of cars from, from the ukraine. sometimes the people they told us they are waiting for 24 hours. the even even more they are, they sat there frightens, but they also kind of relief because right now they think they are. they are safe and happy that they can go to poland. we have the situation that about 12130000 cranes have left that country, but they are of course, much more people inside of the place. we need expect higher number.

but we see also a lot of philadelphia in poland, but also in romania and lavaca and adobe that the government and also the people itself, the open up the help. and the signs of solidarity are really touching mainly women and children. not that many men within the refugees and they the told us that they are now that they hope to find safety here in poland and they left to family members behind them that sometimes really heartbreaking people. we think stories from, from people who are in need of the un security council failed to adopt the resolution condemning the russian military action in ukraine. russia vetoed the vote. that would have confirmed the sovereignty of the client and demanded the russia immediately withdraw its forces. she abra county reports as president of the

security council had failed to russia to list the un member states who co sponsored the resolution opposing its use of force against ukraine and calling for an unconditional withdrawal. but so on, in the, in very good. the molly, the resolution did gained the support of 11 members of the council with china, india, and the united arab emirates abstaining. as expected russia, it's vito power, russia, you can veto this resolution, but you cannot veto our voices. you cannot veto the truth. you cannot veto our principles, you cannot veto the ukrainian people. the russian on basset accounted that the resolution was imbalanced for not mentioning the shelling of don bounced by the ukrainian government, nor the failure by kiev and the west to implement the 2015 piece deal. and he added this not going to me to go to noon and start to move. i will refrain from listening out the aggressions carried out by the united states in their history. but you are

in no position to moralize. the u. s. succeeded in avoiding a chinese veto with its final version of the resolution. but waging once again agreed with russia that the crisis had developed over time as a result of nature's disregard for russia, security and caution. the security council taking any action should be truly conducive to defusing the crisis rather than adding fuel to the fire the ukrainian basset, or accuse his russian counterpart of having no idea what was in latin hooton's mind . but he did reaffirm ukraine's commitment to negotiations, even as he despaired for the safety of his people. and i will ask all of you to pray or to meditate if you do not believe in god for peace is expected that a similar but non binding resolution will be introduced at a special session of the united nations general assembly where russia does not have

vito already it appears to have the support of more than 80 of the us 193 member states she ever time. see al jazeera, the united nations, or that will not forget. the james vase is in brussels. we're western nations are meeting to take further action against russia. i think the international position is pretty solid now. regarding the, the where i am the e, u, nato, and the us. and i think you also got some idea of the international position at the un security council where you saw the position of china, which i think is very important. abstaining on that security council resolution. clearly, the resolution condemning russia didn't pass because it was vetoed by russia, but china, which is increasingly a close ally of russia. the fact that they abstain, i think, is an interesting fact. meetings of continuing all across the world and we'll continue over the weekend. it's not

a normal weekend of short. the german chancellor is currently meeting the polish prime minister and the lithuanian president. lots of meetings going on, particularly i think meetings on what to do going forward with regard to support for ukraine. they put the sanctions in place to punish a president putin. what do they do to actually help the ukrainian military? they're not going to send any resources or any trips. they, they know that's the case. none of that weapons, none of the aircraft or that troops will be used, but can they send weapons in support of the ukrainians? can they give other support to the cranium? financial support that has happened from some european countries? it's happened from the u. s. i think others are discussing it and discussing what moves they can make change. they said, well, they show you some live pictures now out of the french capital parents. this is a fairly large demonstration taking place right now in parish, in solidarity with ukraine, ukraine. there you see lots of ukrainian flags out service is near the center of

power. so this is among many protests that have been taking place around the world of the last couple of days in places as far as new zealand and australia in a number of american cities as well. and this is approaches taking place in, in paris right now. a protest is in london, i've been demanding the u. k. government take more action against russian a team. barbara has them. will that have been demonstrations here outside downing street for several days now? but interestingly, people are not just announcing the actions of president putin in ukraine, but they are calling for specific measures that they want to see brought in straight away. one of them is a no fly zone by nato. so the ukranian armed forces have a great to chance of resisting the attack by russia. they're also talking russia to be eliminated from the swift mechanism of international payments. now there are

families here who ukrainians, who set to the united kingdom with family back home in ukraine who are desperately worried. and they don't know what to tell their relatives. their relatives then know that there are, there is fighting on many different fronts and they are streaming worried. of course families like that have to make the decision. do they stay or do they try to get out of the country? i'm not what so worrying for people here. there is a big solidarity movement here in the united kingdom, whether a tens of thousands of ukrainians living there are other you citizens like people from poland. also president presence at this protest that countries are now mobilizing to help you craniums. so i think that that's adding to the sense that here in britain, there is more that the british government could and should be doing right now. or the conflict in ukraine means millions may have to pay more for bread. we prices

have jumped to a 13 year high with investors worried about supply disruptions. alex smith is a food and agriculture analyst with the breakthrough institute. he says those rising food costs will depend on how long the conflict in ukraine continues. the credit is one of the most important producers in the world as the program. ukraine is the 3rd largest corner in the world and we explore and they're the, they're lead especially goes to a lot of lower middle in some countries around the world. and especially in the middle east. well bred prices make it sort of the bulk of the sort of meet prices and prices of other products that depend on those commodities, crops, or for production are going to be impacted and going back to the air spring. i think it's, it's a fairly sort of common assertion that bread prices and price general food was the

main driver of this sort of political instability. and so you can see political instability, you can see food and security and you know, in the worst case hunger and it really is dependent on the extent of this crisis and how long the, the, the rushing will last and how long there can be disruptions. that's when we really see sort of an appalling national football team is refusing to play russia in a well cup playoff set for next month. the size of you to meet the moscow, but the president, the polish face, has boycotting the match, is in his was the only right decision. hollins, captain, and all time top scorer. robert live in dog ski agrees he tweeted, i can't imagine playing a match with the russian national team in a situation when armed aggression in ukraine continues. russia football is and fans, he goes on to say, i'm not responsible for this, but we can't pretend that nothing is happening. so we got some reaction as well to

poland announcement from the associated press. sports corresponded rob house. yeah, the next move that way can come from faith or it's a big call for them to may. do they throw russia out of the well cut that into the semi finals in the playoffs to qualify or do they stand by poland holding it already said it didn't want to play this game in moscow in a month time. that request came in the other day to faith. we hadn't heard a response and now they ratchet things up today, the request thing, actually they're indicating they all refusing to play at all regardless of the location and be called the johnny. and today, johnny 15, someone who received the order of friendship meadow from russian president vladimir peyton after the 2018 woke up in russia. ah,

it says, let's get around. now the top stories explosions have been heard in parts of kiev, as russian forces continued. there was.
