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. in the village of buck marsh in northern ukraine, russian forces were met by angry civilians while man trying to stop and advancing tank with his bare hands before being pulled to safety and of the city of hawk heave, a russian missile landed in a children's playground. russia meanwhile, appears to be sending even more troops and hardware across the border into the country while insisting it's not targeting ukrainian cities to jail ocean or run as yours is to visit us. during the night. the russian military use long range,

high precision weapons sea and air launched cruise missiles to strike the targets among the ukrainian military infrastructure. i'd like to state once again, strikes are only aimed at ukrainian military targets for that's not what the residence, the key of a seeing or hearing people continue to seek sanctuary under ground in basements, the metro anywhere away from the violence. according to western intelligence, the capitals not yet surrounded those russian troops that have made it as far as key of a thought to be russian special forces and saboteurs. but larger russian battle groups are getting closer, encountering stiff, ukrainian resistance as they approach elsewhere. the russians have made more decisive gaines. this is the city of melita paul in the country southeast, where the russian flag now flies over

a local police station. if you look this video shot by russian state television shows russian tanks on the move in ukraine's east. this is europe's largest ground war since world war 2 lithium reputed. and some of these troops believe histories on their side started to rec, we've been waiting since 2014. finally, i'll throw away this gun and will live peacefully amidst the fighting a light hearted exchange between the ukrainian driver and some stranded russian soldiers lost and out of fuel material. but ha, ha, ha, ha, ukraine's one you guys have surrendered says the driver. can i tell you back to russia? the truth is, the conflicts far from over ukrainian troops of the capital of fortifying the city . soon in hours or days, moscow will have to make a decision just outside the capital, an engineer some political arrangement with the ukrainian government, or bring in troops and heavy weaponry and do it in an even more destructive way

with the possibility of mass civilian casualties. o criminal has the capacity for both the fall can. i'll just 0 western nations and uniting to cripple rushes economy and its ability to finance the war and ukraine. certain russian banks to be bought from the special finance system. that means they'll be prevented from carrying out sanctions transactions rather worldwide. the targets include russia's central bank, which holds reserves with $600000000000.00. we commit to ensuring that a certain number of russian banks are removed from swift. this will ensure that these banks are disconnected from the international financial system and hom, their ability to operate globally. swift is the world's dominant global enter bank payment system. cutting banks off will stop them from conducting most of their

financial transactions worldwide. and effectively block russian exports and imports . the calhane has this update from washington dc. vladimir putin. president putin has believed that he is somewhat insulated from sanctions because he's built up this huge war chest. but what we've seen in the last week is the rubel versus the dollar is just absolute plummeted. this couldn't really start to have an actual impact on a regular russian people. if all the sudden you need way more ruble to buy a loaf of bread, that is going to create some political pressure. so he needs this money to be able to keep the ruble basically steady. so exactly how those sanctions play out. that could be a huge part, and we also see they're taking a different tact. they're trying to go after the people, or they say they're going to go after the people closest to put in the really, truly wealthy. there's a thing they've been able to use in the past to avoid sanction,

is they call it the golden passport. basically you pay a lot of money to a country and you get a passport. so you can't necessarily deal in business as a russian. but perhaps you can do it from this other country. so they're going to be trying to squeeze that your call of power around flattery. putin tried to cut off any way that they can evade the sanctions. william black is an economist in former federal prosecutor. he believes russia is ill prepared to cope with the sanctions. if you keep the sanctions on economically well within the next 2 to 3 years, they will have a very substantial bite. and by the way, the things that putin has been doing to supposedly prepare the russian economy ah, for being sanctioned crew are actually very harmful to the russian economy. and the russian economy is incredibly weak relative to its military

power. so putin does have to worry considerably of that this becomes his afghanistan economically. and politically. putin has shown repeatedly that the ala carte sir useful in, in making him very wealthy, but that he can and will break them. i have show trials, put them in prison, literally kill them in prison and devastate them economically. so i think the united states has it wrong in believing that if it goes after the cronies, it's going to make life a difficult for putin more european countries ascending weapons in fuel to help you crane defend itself. germany, his pledge to 1000 to and he tank weapons and 500 surface to air missiles. the netherlands also promised to send missiles to ukrainian forces and the u. s. is up,

it's military assistance to ukraine. washington has authorized up to $350000000.00 in new spending to boots. the country's defenses, french president emanuel ma chrome has condemned a plan change in bel russian law. that would allow russian nuclear weapons to be hosted on its territory. a referendum that's widely expected to pass is being held over the weekend and has asked about a roof president, alexander lucas shank. it to demand the withdrawal. a russian troops from a coil and come to the aid of the ukrainian people. lucas shank had allowed russian troops to enter ukraine from his country. more than a 100000 ukrainians have been flaying to neighboring. poland was or is expecting to help as many as 5000000 people in the weeks ahead. but crowds have checkpoints a so large. it could take people 3 days to be processed as a buzz robbie ripple. beyond the reaches of the russian army,

refugees from ukraine, arrive in the safety of poland. forced to take only what is most important, only what they can carry. here friendly faces, open arms, and as much comfort as can be had sheltering in a train station. vladimir sherman ski was working in the netherlands when the war broke out. he's waiting for his 5 sons to arrive from across the border to take them to safety. he'll then return to ukraine, where he says he will join his wife a soldier in the national army. ukrainians are prepared to die. he says before ever surrendering their country to russian president vladimir putin, i can say when ukrainian loose, when you're grinning loose, you roll boys can bit, makes one holland and only roper and my b america to. so help us or or it can be the same way again. ukraine's decision to conscript men of fighting age into the armed forces has

divided families. the women who have fled with their children. no, that long, good buys may turn out to be final farewells. but there is resilience here. my note is always tried to have found fun because they can fund fun and subway is everywhere if they have a song mamma, song, toys, right? but alder, goal love, feel some they feel that dangerous station, but we try to be strong to not so panic for many of the displaced the semester. the train station will be the 1st time any of them have seen any sort of help in days. a hot meal, a place to rest, a ride to cities across europe, even people opening up their own homes to offer those displaced by the fighting in ukraine a place to stay. there has been an outpouring of support from volunteers who want

to help any way they can. we met maria in tears as she searched for a mother with a newborn she had met earlier in the day. she came back to the train station with toys, but the mother and baby are gone. the oven, my 20, i'd gladly bumper, send to england and the u. s. and other countries just get dozens of planes to bomb him. that's all i want to say. there is solidarity with ukrainians and anger at russia as europe's latest refugees try to figure out what to do next. desperate for news from the people they left behind. those that made it out of ukraine have a warning for the rest of the world. millions of lives are at stake. help stop russia. while you still care. zane bus ravi ultra 0 shamella, eastern poland. still a hey, don't al jazeera is russian forces and bond some key will take a closer look at the kremlin military tactics across the ukraine. and

a big transfer in the premier league, how the boys now hitting a giant is european football awe. and away we go with your weather report for the middle east and africa. hello everyone. nice to see you. it's a fairly settled picture here, but we've got that return of that ship all when so that's a wind out of the north northwest. we go in for a closer look around the gulf states, because i do think this is going to spin around some of the sand and does for the eastern side of the audi rate, into southern areas and wall. and for example, in doha, we can expect wind gusts here on sunday of about 45 kilometers per hour. we did see some fairly intense storms in punjab, a province in pakistan, that energy is move further toward the east. it's settled in the south, correct? she's got a high 33 degrees and the disturbance that formed in the atria to see has moved

further toward the east. so this becomes a story for western areas of turkey, some soaking rains here, i think less. so for example, the area of concern will be, is mere, talking about that heat for central areas of africa. we put the colors on tarka, the red, the higher the temperature, very likely new record. this needs to be verified in a bu, just 39.4, and your forecast on sunday. we've nudged your temperature down a bit to $38.00 degrees and for southern areas are seasonal rains continued to ring out their voice tre over flood stricken areas of madagascar. and now you're in the no soon ah, the day you decide to do something for the 1st time and make day anything bigger

with em and she investment lou ah ah hello are you watching out 0. i'm mainly angland, reminder of our top stories. the salam russian forces continuing their assault on the ukrainian capital for 4th day, bad explosions, having heard across key keith and an oil depot on the outskirts of the capitol is on fire caves. 3000000 residents have been told to take shelter. western nations

are uniting to try and cripple rushes economy. certain russian banks to be bought from the international finance system, meaning they'll be prevented from carrying out transactions and will wives. and more than 100000 people have crossed from ukraine to poland. warsaw ease expecting to help as many as 5000000 people in the weeks ahead. the crowds at checkpoints is so large, could take people dates to be processed. we have correspondence across the country, bringing us the latest developments. one of our colleagues was briefly detained as he was reporting from easton ukraine. charles stratford is also now in guinea pro. he's his story. we return from the city of separation where the situation is becoming increasingly tense. a lot more military checkpoints, a lot more military hardware then than we saw there yesterday. as an indication of

how 10 cities we were preparing to go live to do a live broadcast. we're out of nowhere, seemingly. a group of ukrainian soldiers and ukrainian police peered with their guns, many of them pointing towards us firing in the air they demanded that we get out of the vehicle. we threw ourselves to the ground camera mans telephone. busy was kicked out of his hand and 2 bullets fired from a kalashnikov into that telephone. now, it's important to recognize that these men were just doing their jobs. there are increasing phase amongst ukrainian military and security services about what they describe as cyber term was trying to get into cities in compromising military positions. but as i say, our cameras was still rolling when this incident happened. let's take a look. hi.

they still stop, stop, stop filming the new lease. good journalist john was enough journalist also the the also reports from the port city of mary. awful witnesses telling us that what they described was being increasing numbers of paramilitaries on the streets, ukrainian power ministries,

helping the ukraine and army trying to defend the city from what we understand is a pushed by russian forces from the west. we know that the city is also suffered heavy shilling from the east. we also been speaking to people fleeing the area north of crimea, around the city of care of sown people telling us, or alleging that russian forces that have taken control of some of those towns are preventing ukrainian citizens from leaving them. the situation on the roads around in the pro very tense checkpoints a lot more strict one checkpoints, and we saw a russian helicopter fly low over the checkpoint, causing panic, causing people to, to scatter away even the security services that sir, that will manage that check boyd but there are increasing phase of the 10s, if not hundreds of thousands of civilians that are trying to put as much distance as they can between them and russian forces advancing on these ukrainian cities as

the, the front lines become increasingly blurred at his ears. ronnie grady is in southwest russia where resources are being deployed across the border. yes, admit and hit us. alaska. convoys of russian military gear continue to flood across the russian ukraine. border. armored gear and vehicle mounted me filed as you can see behind me, an armored vehicle carrying self propelled missiles is headed towards the borderline with ukraine. these batteries can far, 16 missiles within 20 seconds. the convoys will take part in the ongoing military operations. the fear system which is currently raging on the dunbar front, where we are standing now is only a few kilometers from the border. and this scene is repeated elsewhere as other convoys are crossing the borderline into ukraine on other roads. richard, which is a security and min, military analyst, and wiki stress. he offers an insight into rushes military tactics. looks like

is the russians are engaged in a 3 prong movement. there are advancing from the north from bella, ruth and trying to enter a 2 beach. the northern part of kias that way. there are also her sheen from the east and but they're most successful drive. it's been from the south. so i make that the northern forces and the, the eastern groups well to constance around trying for around here. and then use our hillary backed by tanks and infantry with air support to take the city sector by sector. meanwhile, the group that's coming in from the south looks like with all trying to do and the main ukrainian units that are now fighting in the don bath and car car and try and surround them. and that would give them the kind of scenario we

thought often in this area during world war 2. and when the germans are, the soviets would sweep around a major force. and as we saw, stalingrad eventually forced to surrender, managed between 18 and 60, have been conscripted to fight for the ukrainian army. that means many families is seeking safety, forced to flee, leaving fathers and brothers behind trinna, how has more from the cause over critical fits border crossing since thursday, we're told 150000 people across from ukraine into poland at one of 3 border crossing points. this one we're told is the easiest one to get across the way. here is in the many, many hours. it's extremely cold. most of the hundreds and hundreds of thousands, perhaps of people. here are women and children. men, of course,

ukrainian citizens between the age of 18 and 60 required to stay at home and fight and given the evidence of resistance. but not many of them appear to be arguing with that call. we have of course we are learning from science and from the, from the danger. we're scared. we are alone with our daughter. we don't have any fender. so that's why we're, we're looking for some kind of shelter. and our fancy has been fighting there today. and so the, the, the, the town where me by the lead me by, it was just completely, i knew how it feels to be here with a sugar keep you put that on. oh yeah. what are you hoping with here?

with now, with every day that passes with every grim new development in this war, these numbers are only going to grow overwhelming. the border guards here in the ukrainian side and the polish side there progresses, achingly slow. they're only allowing groups of 50 people at a time through and say, well, it's little sticks being held above people's heads with little pieces of paper on them. that marks a makes it of 50 people waiting an awful long way ahead of them to get through. and behind the bus load off the bus float after bus load after busload arriving over time. meanwhile, place of launched to crack down to deal with the growing anti war sentiment across russia. close to 2000 people angry over the war and ukraine had been arrested since the offensive began an online petition to stop the attack has close to a 1000000 signatures ration internet uses reported problems using facebook and

twitter, which the government accuses of amplifying dissenting views. and anti war protests and just taking place in russia, people around the world have been expressing their outrage at the invasion. the dame barber reports from london on the demonstrations across europe. oh wow. in the heart of london, demanding more be done for ukraine. many of these protest is all ukrainian with family and friends back home that they're desperately worried about. people like ela, medford ever. he came to britain more than 20 years ago. i still remember stories him and then my then great father about the 2nd world war and how the crashes came . and it just happened to me again and you know, it just, it, it's not just the military, it h o b, cold thing to start today, killing people with high high they were similar, solidarity protests across europe. this was munich in the south of germany itself.

no stranger to upheaval and dark episodes in history amongst them once the widow, when we're worried about our brothers sisters, our relatives. you look at the people gathered here and everybody is scared. the war will break out in europe. in the italian capital, a large crowd called for more pressure on russia. and in paris, they gathered in the plaster luxury to bleak calling on nato to protect ukraine's air space. that was a key demand in london to i think we should be supporting militarily ukraine as best as possible as madman at the moment in, in the kremlin ans, i mean we have to press it to where we can. the crowd has been shown to glory, to ukraine and denouncing the russian president. but they've also been calling for specific measures. they will britain to take right now, including greater financial sanctions and more military held for ukraine's armed forces. and while the ukrainian flag now flies from government buildings, many are angry,

there is no legal route for most ukrainians to seek asylum in britain. we need to be letting refugees command. i'm and dispatch fees is for the move to get here. and then once the head there with it were ever afterwards for now all ukrainians outside the country can do is hope the fighting and soon and urge the world to do more. to make that happen. the dba al jazeera london, the gremlins website has been taken offline by a cyber attack. ukrainian media says one of 6 state affiliated sites in russia has been taken down the hackers, collective, known as anonymous, is thought to be responsible. the group announced on twitter that it was at war with the russian government. and you chief has blocked to ration state channel r t and several other russian media outlets from earning advertising revenue on the platform. it said it was taking action against outlets with links to race infections. the company has also restricted access to the channels in ukraine. that's after the ukrainian government asked it to block

russians in the wake of the russian invasion of ukraine. now there's been nothing stated that around which would face sanctions at this point, but they save him, stepping away. it's trying to sort of create a distance between himself and the club, insert the decision making, at least ah, no you what challenges they are? these are the stories were following this, our russian forces and continuing their results on the ukrainian capital for full day loud explosions. have been heard across, keep all knives, and oil depot on the outskirts of the capital caught fire caves. 3000000 residents have been told to take shelter with fees. the battle will.
