connected together itself is broad, does profits that are easy to make and hard to ignore the haps it means that all of us should be a little more vigilant about what we put on our plates. ah, 8 days in counting the debts and destruction laid bare in russia's bombing of ukraine. president lansky says his troops that were fighting back ah, hello, get on. come all santa maria here and done. all this is the world use from al jazeera, a spiraling refugee crisis. over a 1000000 ukrainians in flight, the violence now will take you to the poland, bought it who a nearly united fronted you and again,

for his invasion. while it's foreign minister reiterates the war, is justified when you why, but we do believe we will find a solution. i am totally convinced the minimum requirements are well known and they were expressed in the last round of talks with the ukrainians. ah. so more than a 1000000 refugees have now fled the fighting in ukraine as russia's invasion gains ground. the u. s. says it is the fastest exodus of people this century. have a look at the map. the areas shaded in red are controlled by russia and the allied separatists. moscow intensified it's shelling of urban areas as this invasion of ukraine now enters a 2nd week. here are some of the developments to take you through on the ground emergency services in mario paul. first of all, they say 34 civilians have been killed in the past day, the mayor that says russian forces surrounding the city are actively preventing people from leaving. we go to the north of ukraine where fire fighters are trying

to put out a large fire. this is at an oil depot, a hit by rushes, shelling and there are reports. dozens have been killed in czerny if you grant capital key. it's been shaken by 4 large explosions overnight. a rocket landed near the capital southern railway station and the ukrainian railway service says thousands of civilians were inside the station. at the time of that strike. those are the developments that talked to andrew simmons about them. he is in levine in poland, key of under increasing attack. her son has been taken a lot of moves by the russians here. most certainly were entering the 2nd week and there is no let up in the scale of the violence. in fact, it's increasing every hour. it would seem her song, marking the 1st city in ukraine to fall to the russians. and doing so, it's devastated some level of morale in one area that is in that city itself.

ukraine forces are nowhere to be seen in the city, and the mass says that the mayor had russian troops crash into the local authority headquarters. a. he wasn't held at gunpoint. he immediately went into negotiations with senior officers. apparently the ukrainian flag was allowed to stay flying on the roof of the building and tanks and rolled through the streets. these russian soldiers were seen moving along in a very common rational manner. patrolling the streets of the city. further down the coast, merrier pole. well, that situation there is, is just extraordinary. no food, no water, no fuel, and very little hope for people and some were getting out the last minute sir. convoys with tanks coming the other way. awful. scenes. people in such a distress. great. and the level of,

of pressure on hospital local hospitals is intense. just no sparing anything in the way this city has been shelled. so very, very delicate situation there in terms of whether that city will be held by the ukrainians. further north china heath, which is where all of the armor is coming through that region and the city itself, the capital of the region, is being smashed to smithereens by shells, by multiple rocket launchers or hospital has been hit. and there's a major fire and a diesel plant that was hit by a missile. then, of course, the other end of that. so the capital here there is that he is, is, is in a state where as a state of suspended animation, if you will, because 4 major explosions overnight or 2 stations one a met for one. the main southern station hits the civilians in a desperate state. and so he is, as i say,

waiting for what people feel is the inevitable. when finally, the final push comes on the cabin and to, let's talk about the refugee situation a 1000000 in a week, which is an extraordinary number. the, the good news, if i can use that term loosely, is that they are being welcomed and there are people willing to take them in pretty much wherever they go. but i mean, you can only imagine these numbers are just going to keep going up most certainly the united nation, sir refugee agency, you and hcr, describing it as the fastest, most biggest, fast evacuation of a country the century. and with its though, the world revulsion is something russia may have missed gauged and now we're into the 2nd week is a very different dynamic because russia's got to come to terms of the fact that ukrainians have such a resolve that they will fight. so the very last,

as we've seen, and we've seen an extraordinary situation in an anna holder, the location for europe's biggest nuclear power station. and they're, look at the crowds. you saw there, the crowds blocking the path of an invasion force who wanted to get to that power station negotiations there. we don't know what the latest situation, but as far as we're aware, there was some sort of agreement for a russian delegation to go through and take photographs of that installation to get technical reports back. but the, the, the civilians, there were insistent that sir, that their technicians, that their experts were, were protecting the installation and therefore that they would not let the russians pass in terms of any, any further military action in the area. not sure how that's going to be resolved, but there is still this fight going on, not just with the, not just with the ukrainian forces, but the civilians and the strength of that. again,

i come back to it. russia evidently, doesn't have forces that expected this resistance, not just the fierce resistance from the forces that are much more powerful than anyone realized. but also that key issue of the capital and the resistance being put around it. and whether or not that column, the armored column is definitely been held up for some reason or another logistics or a question. apparently, the whole persona of the, of the, and the morale of the, of the forces. young comb scripts really quite taken aback and frightened and, and worried howled us russia. turn all of this into a full occupation. how to lay turn all of their extra aggression. that's, that's just mounting over time. how do they occupy this country? it certainly will not give up very lightly, probably won't give up at all. and then you have an insurrection. all of them going through the minds of everyone when they're thinking, can we leave and come back?

most think like that. they don't want to leave you crime forever. there is a determination amongst the people here, not just for independence, but freedom from russia. that's what people are feeling, without any shadow of doubt and re simmons reporting from the vague thank you. enter. the ukrainian president le zalinski has been speaking as well. he told russian soldiers recently to go home. i kept lamb boomer, the old letter received for grace. the missiles and bombs hissing our cities shows . i couldn't achieve anything significant in our land. all our defensive lines are safe. the enemy doesn't have success with any of his strategic directions. they are disappointed and last mean the normal course unable deal. we will rebuild every house, every street and every sissy, and we say to russia, learned the words of reparation and contribution. you will pay back the full price for everything that you did. there is other broad because no grains or grain of

says ukraine has started welcoming foreign volunteers who are coming to our country . the 1st of 16000 a coming to defend liberty and our lives. me about russia's foreign minister, 2nd line for 2 questions from foreign media. short time ago, he told reporters he has no doubt a solution will be found useful. graham again, you're supposed to book though, that of course it's bad when people are dying. the soldiers and civilians, as it's been happening in the done best for 8 years, we will find a solution. i am totally convinced the minimum requirements are well known and they were expressed in the last round of talks with the ukrainians. the ukranian side had some reason to postpone those negotiations. clearly, they are being ruled by washington. we cannot expect russia to allow any danger from the territory of ukraine. russians defense ministry insists forces are dom, i'm sorry, defense minister and says forces are avoiding civilian casualties in ukraine. wanted young to liberalism, union merciful in islam,

do ukrainian nationalists are placing heavy weaponry near residential buildings. russian troops do not harmed civilians are on no objective. is to destroy military facilities in ukraine. we destroyed the control center in cuba along with other 1612 objectives during our mission to provide more on all of this with also jibari and moscow survey lever offset that the world is listening to russia. but he's not sure they are hearing a what the russians are saying. and this is a sentiment that he shared even before the invasion began. on february 24th, the russian foreign minister took a lot of questions from american media. and he was adamant about his country's position that they are really under threat from the ad neighboring e u. countries that are part of nato. and despite the rhetoric coming from the nato secretary general, as well as the british foreign secretary and u. s. president survey lover of said that at russia is still very much open to the

idea of a dialogue with nato, as well as united states. and he said that this is really not something that they are interested in to create more hysteria. he believes that the hysteria, as he called it, that's been created around ukraine, will calm down eventually. and that's a dialogue between russia and other countries will resume. so your love, rob said that's his country's main concern, was the idea of nuclear weapons being placed in nato countries around russia's borders. and that is what they are trying to fight a he was adamant. i'd say they are not looking to stay in ukraine by that they are really at looking after their own security interests. are coverage contin use in just a moment, bracing for a russian assault. we will look at the daily life of thousands of people taking shelter in the pro, in east, in ukraine, and the price of oil suffer and $2020.00

a barrel at the moment is pressure grows to tighten sanctions against russia. ah ah, look forward to brighter skies the winter sponsored my cattle airways. hello, i'm pleased to say we have a last got some dry weather coming in to japan freight. it's not going to last. they do make the most of it. as we go on through the next couple of days, lost dry weather. we have got this little feet of northwesterly winds coming in to japan. you can see us generally set fair for the most part when she weather coming in across the korean peninsula. having said that, for the west, we have got to well the where sunshine spring sunshine for basing lifting temperatures to around 30 degrees celsius still says spring showers a little further south was follow showers up to was the far south of japan. we will

crime was a devastating stillberg, an empowering story of one woman's struggle that ignited a movement. miscarriage of justice. a witness documentary on al jazeera. lou. ah, the latest developments from russia and ukraine view this how the you and refugee agency says more than a 1000000 people have now fled ukraine since russia's invasion began a week ago. it is the fastest exodus of people the century. most have headed west and to poland and hungary for lodge explosions shook central cave overnight. a rocket strike landed near the capital southern railway station as thousands of

civilians were inside trying to leave the city. and the mayor of mario paul is reporting mass casualties after what he described as 15 hours of bombardment by russian forces who are surrounding that eastern port. city officials say what has been cut off and food is running out and talk about the media now because the u. s . is accusing russia of muslim the media after the editor in chief of its only independent tv news channel left the country, leading liberal russian radio station. as while echo masvie has been taken off there and as follows, warning, some media outlets to stop broadcasting. what the regulate his at least coal false information about the war for moscow, bernard smith reports on how the conflicts been covered, versus that out in b o. d v. rain has always had to choose its words carefully. it's the only news channel in russia that isn't pro kremlin. now the authorities a telling it what words it can and cannot use norman web propulsion editor in chief

t concept co tells view, as we continue to tell you about the war, which the military authorities call a special military operational. it's very important for russian authorities not to use the wars such as invasion, war war, but for the moscow prosecutor's office tv. rain isn't trying hard enough. it's ordered the channel to stop spreading. what it cold? false information regarding the actions of russian military personnel. a few hours after speaking to al jazeera, to con, left russia with his family tv rains website is blocked. all that's left. is this stream on youtube? i handed it past legless. what kit is on this be a separate? i'd say ok. state tv refers to a special operation, zoning, ukraine. the coverage is concentrated on what's happening in the battles for the nets. and lou gantski, now recognized as republics by moscow did not. there's no mention of a tax on key every other ukrainian cities with inner anatole you have now is one of

the 64 percent of russians whom television is their primary source of news by me at the yard slid a bomb. as i heard, it's just the opposite. they try to somehow protect the peaceful population as much as possible. i can't say i'd supported this from the beginning, but now i do support it as after the kremlin and the cremins foreign channels don't refer to an invasion. russia will continue, though, with it's military incursion. in arabic, the headline reads russia's military operation to protect don bass and in french, russia will continue it's offensive in ukraine, that code of 14 we saw all you could rush us. communications regulator has accused 10 outlets of falsely depicting what it called the military operation in ukraine. one of them, the novia gazette, and its headlines as well. at least there is some good news. the word piece hasn't been forbidden yet. burnett smith, al jazeera moscow writes, want to play

a part of an interview or a discussion i had, i guess, with dmitri babich little bit early. he's a political landless with the russian state owned news agency. rossier sagen? yeah, i asked him why russian media outlets were avoiding calling this conflict in ukraine . a war the expressions like collateral damage or, you know, regime change used by the western media are also very critical. and in fact they, they have war behind that. so russia way has learned from the west or that that issue. however, i don't think that these matters not particularly wise, not to use the war war, but rather to use the war need to reached. and everybody understands what reparation means in russia. and also i would say that basically it's a part or general receipt. that is the golf. and right now i'll go back to the original point because you've used what was there again, you talk about the word war. it is a war. people are dying. it's an invasion again,

why come the russian government just let people call it that? well, people call it that. it's just that the media, the media that are using state owned and it's going to see if they don't use the word war. if you go to the internet, if you will give that a large sign, including sound basically and buy ukrainian and next live you will see the water. why so many times this morning, 171 or the guy that's good to hear then. and they said, we can agree on that. tell me about these other radio stations in the like the more liberal radio stations which are finding themselves shutting down. now, it does not speak highly of a free media there. if outlets can't operate and report what they want to. well, a lot of people have raised concerns about f. a must read. i was

a frequent guess on that station for many years. or 30 year. that was the private media all left in russia. but he changed over the years. you know, the last i would say 1516 years, it became very pro west, very negative. what, anything back from the lease you will they disable that the i won't be banned from last time. you know, the reason why it was shut down, it was, it gave the voice to one of the most anti rush and speakers in the you bringing the dog. he's full when that, how much lead 2 days ago. and that was the reason i don't you kinds emergency services reported hundreds of civilian debts from this conflict and he structures including hospitals have been destroyed. and while some patients have been moved to safer areas, there has been concern for the safety of terminally ill children. charles strap

that has more now from vasily fca in east in ukraine. anastasio brought her son to this hospital in the city of zap arisia, 2 weeks ago. 5 year old val odaimi was suffering eternal bleeding and in the critical condition, he is recovering well. there has been heavy shilling in the town where they live. they can't get back because the russian army advance isn't just enough. of course i'm worried. i have 3 other children at home. there has been sheldon and they're hiding in the basement. newborn babies, incubators lined the corridor. doctors have moved them here to shield them. it is russian army shelling to permission your maxim, one of the kiss areas protective who shrapner if there was a blast. so we put the babies here is deep inside the building between 2 walls. viashi's love leads us into the basement hospital star for preparing beds.

the room feels cold and damp. they fear the children who can not be moved from the intensive care unit. if the shelling starts, there, they all have their amazon diseases. they're incurable. so we have to leave them them here in case of her errors. because they dependent, they are dependent on oxygen. they are dependent on the sedation agreement and we cannot transport everything necessary for them. their outside volunteers are filling sandbags to strengthen doorways and protect the windows, the shelves float nearby to leave the hospital, navigating walls of tank traps being set up across the city to stop a russian advance,

we head towards anastasio town. the road is empty. the ukrainian military tells us the greatest threat is air strikes from russian military drones in the last 10 minutes or so. we've heard what sounds like a heavy barrage of grad rockets being fired in an area behind me. that's towards the city of ashy live go, which we understand is being fought over by ukrainians and russian forces. also in the last few minutes, we spoke a couple of people that tried to deliver aid into the town. they said they were turned back by the army because of the shelling. cha, stratford al jazeera, near vasa live cur, eastern ukraine. we've talked about the number of refugees, the want to well illustrate it for you here. what the u. n is describing is the fastest exit, is this century, this is where they're going. poland has taken in the most nearly half a 1000000 refugees, moldova, hungary, romania,

and desperate people in sight. you crate on you my own needs. they don't have anything. i'm just they don't have anything to get anywhere to sleep. nothing to fight. well, volunteers are working against the clock to pack and drive as much aid into the country as they can't organize was worry. belushi and forces allied with russia could soon block their supply lines. this effort is the beginning of something bigger, void that hold on. let me go to a new major boyer for that. but the polish government plans to use lublin as a hub for humanitarian personnel. 8 flights and convoys to ukraine, all signs point to a protracted crisis in western europe. marino's ukrainian, living in germany in less than a week, her home was invaded. she was cut off from her family by war. and her middle aged father was drafted into the ukrainian army. he has a rifle, but she is worried that he has no body armor. when diseased, his mom or papa, when you see that mom or dad are calling you don't know if they are calling just to

separatist took over these towns. but now with rushes full on assault, when ukraine situation has become much worse for what the gal that they were the mold, only we need to stop all that blabbering and all that destruction. how long can this go on? how long are they going to abuse us? we've been living like this for 8 years running to the basement and back. what is that? what was the issue? it's a complicated dynamic. these people are ethnically, russian, and our family ties throughout ukraine. they've been living under control of the pro russian separatist for years. there is sympathy here for russia, but this war is threatening even the closest of bonds for the period for their operations by the russian forces started. our relatives treated us with compassion . we used to call each other many times, but now we're invaders, they say murders and so on. if you to my family ties will collapse now as i and sand. it's a sentiment echoed by many here. is similar to slower, delicate,
