1:03 pm
root has been established from my pole to the city of r a. p, jo and civilians. will be able to drive along that corridor in their own cars or by taking a municipal bus. but russia has warned that deviating from this route is strictly forbidden. charles stratford isn't any pro. he reports transports being provided to help a vacuum. we travel through that humanitarian corridor. there are 3 points in the city where bosses are gathering too, for people to get on board to collect, to take through to the city of zap parisha. now, it gives up re sherry's about $300.00 or so. i'm actually at least 300 kilometers to the north of mariel. it's a city that we visited repeatedly in the last few days. the city about an hour and a half south from here. a city that can only really be described is preparing for a siege itself. tank traps, checkpoints thousands of suits,
1:04 pm

1:05 pm
a week ago. that was shell that were on fire. meanwhile, ukraine's president is accusing nato of giving russia the green light to further bombard and chill ukrainians. while others are lansky says the alliances refusal to establish a no fly zone will only add to civilian death. the city of chinese, just a 143 kilometers and the capital keith came under heavy bombardment overnight. also crowds of ukrainians have gathered in the city of her son and us in the cells to protest against russia, takeover of their city. it's the largest city that moscow has taken since its invasion of ukraine began begun 10 days ago. ukraine's president has back the protests, down the wordly to the people of this free country. this is the 10th day of our patriotic fight. and these 10 days feel like one endless day and one in the night, which does not allow us to risk. and that's your 90 per hour epoch. or he can see
1:06 pm
every ukrainian man and woman who bids our flag and demonstrates you will win. because it's impossible to whenever people who with beer hands go and stop military machinery, they don't lose the word honor and they will never lose it. let's think about versus joining us from the even despite the comment by the ukranian, president nato is categorically so far, ruling out a no fly zone. natasha. yeah, we heard from a ukrainian president of the law demands lensky in an address, looking visibly angry, visibly frustrated with nato, with the western military alliance. because he has requested that nato enforce a no fly zone over ukraine. now what he says is that is necessary to stop military planes continuing to bombard certain parts of ukraine. he is saying effectively that nato, by not enforcing such
1:07 pm
a no fly zone will have blood on its hands. he said that every person that dies from here onwards is effectively a person who has died the cause of nato's weakness and in actions. now nato has made it very clear though that it does not want to be involved in this weight will not put a boots on the ground. the head of natalia installed to berg on friday, saying that if it was to enforce the no fly zone that would effectively mean that the alliance would be having to shoot down russian planes and jets over ukrainian soil. effectively bringing nato into this war that with wide initial of holes. there is also that nuclear threat looming, that is not something that the western allies want. zalinski extremely upset with nato. he is saying, look, i am here in a country where people are being shelled on a daily basis with humanitarian need is absolutely dire. people are dying, they are running out of food, water, vital assistance,
1:08 pm
and what we need. and i says, lensky is more help from the ukrainians. he has always framed this very much as something which is not just a crisis, a catastrophe for ukraine, but also one for europe and the wider world. all right, thank you so much. natasha butler is reporting from the v that's in ukraine will now cross over to achieve and bring an sir. he burbock is a ukrainian member of parliament and he's joining us from the capital. welcome to al jazeera, your response. first of all, to nato ruling out imposing a no fly zone at the request of the ukranian president the yeah, actually i, i want to thank you to thank you and sink all the people. and those countries are trying to help you crane with equipment with humanity around 8 is really do appreciate them. we will never forget this call. thank you. but anyway, what we can do, what you can do is to make an no fly zone on your grade. because russia sedation has much more aircraft so much more helicopter and much more for the actually, the,
1:09 pm
every day have bumping, have stumbling with missiles, with bumps to this aircraft that says rush, so we don't have so many aircraft. so we're trying to fight and we will fight. right. but what nato is saying, allow me what nato is saying is that they are fearful. this is going to draw them into a direct conflict with, with rush. i mean, do you worry that such a move could engulf all of europe in a war? if you seeing that booting will stop in the ukraine using chrome? actually the next cancers will bee pollen, slovakia, lafayette la, moldova, et cetera, as he will never stop or allegations. right. but that's not something that we've heard from the russian authorities. i mean, these are allegations that you are making. well, what do you think his aim is? in, in ukraine itself, does he want to occupy the whole country or what do you think english you
1:10 pm
now she wants us to be destroyed, actually as a country, as a free country, he don't want us to be free. that is, that is he or clear his clear message? that is why i think he will not stop in to europe. he will continue his expansion. that is why we should make a no fly zone. it doesn't means that the yo, that european aircraft will fly under you grand and ukranian sky, but it means that the anti aircraft missiles will protect us, will protect key of the little protect argue as a see these with civilians and our nuclear plants. you know that we have for 5, so for as i'm not mistaken, 5 nuclear plants and this is ins appreciate that is on the attack for last couple of days. it is 6 times bigger, isn't your mobile. so that is why it will be disaster for the whole europe, for the whole world. a dad's era defense minister has tweeted that 66224 men according to him,
1:11 pm
have returned from abroad at this moment to defend their country. this is what the defense minister is saying, i mean, they are up against russia armed forces, which of course, as you know, is one of the world's largest, that are you hopeful that they can defend the country? everybody is a soldier in your great. i was an empty 10 years ago. i was a head of committee on education. actually, i am a scientist. i am a doctor of engineering science. but anyway, now i am sleeping, i'm sleeping was my machine gun and i'm holding it every day. and i will defend as well as any other member of parliament, as well as any other citizen of ukraine. we will defend though a concert. i knows it minister of defense said yesterday, but today it is more than 80000 people coming back to your grades are all going to the territory. defense is some kind of reserve army. they're taking machine gun safe, taking every equipment zany and they will fight that was us. let's look at the any
1:12 pm
possible diplomatic path forward and your thoughts on that. i mean, the 2nd round of talks between cavan, moscow, and moscow has ended, as you know, and reports that a 3rd rounds will be held soon. what do you expect from them, and what do you think will come out of the other kind of talks? i'll also jump probably to deal to morrow. there's a soda around the 3rd. the 1st is to stop shooting. and then we can discuss how they will bring gas our territories in dreamy. indonesia can will dance and pay for everything they need to ukraine for the last $10.00 days for the last 8 years. are there any concerns that your brain has prepared to make? what concessions, if any, are you calling on your government to make to end this war? i'm not sure that we will give something to russian federation. we shall so what is the path for sure that our delegation. ready i'm to, i'm more than to assure that our delegation will stand as well. so what is the path
1:13 pm
forward then? i don't know i'm, i'm not a diplomat in such a conversation at church, surely, but we'll see what our go. just give us an update since you speak to us from keith, if you may about the situation and keith, in particular, and whether you're expecting any further advances on the capital. because we also hear that there are reports that there has been bombing in the cities of kirk, even czerny, which are not too far from where you are the minutes to go with her cancelled, and their alarm. the key of it is for 3rd or 4th time this night. so every day we have bumping was bombs and me so on key of some civilian districts. not a military infrastructure, but just in the center of the key of but not, not this night, but they were night before. and this night it was on the border of key of some, a lot bumping a missiles. so he was standing keel will stand for you. graham will stand the
1:14 pm
greenville fights, we will never surrender. we will prevail. and i hope everybody of you will support us. you know war has no day off and we have nobody else. but you do, you have a day of today and you have a day off tomorrow, please go to your squares and go to your cds, go to your governments and please ask him or demand from them to help you. great, thank you. so my are the last standing country for the europe, sir. hey, barbara, thank you so much member of parliament in ukraine. we thank you. thank you. your time on al jazeera, laurie d grade. now the u. n. z world food program is trying to feed 5000000 people in desperate need inside ukraine. its director general david beasley says those who have managed to escape are the lucky ones. the w. r. p has set up distribution warehouses and neighboring countries to get food and we law, the world health organization has sent an emergency supplies to ukraine. moscow and keith have agreed to set up safe corridors to allow that aiden. but it's not clear
1:15 pm
when they'll be established. the 39 cubic dos have been shipped into city drugs, but the model already where the next guy was rising from china and debate with more supplies that you also are going to ship. it looks of the whole idea is you have a safe way to go that this would be a go think new supply to really ensure that every one independent of where the lady has access to life shaving treatments. now many ukrainians are continuing to flee to neighboring countries. poland says more than a 100000 have crossed its border and just the past day alone. the total number of people, mostly women, and children, seeing the fighting, has already surpassed 1000000. let's make his embassy rather his ada crossing on the ukraine. poland border is in the secretary of state,
1:16 pm
anti link in the u. s. sector state is visiting poland. tell us what's on his agenda, the well, we're expecting the u. s. secretary of state, as you said, to visit this border crossing at medical, we've been here since the beginning of the conflict. and mister blinking is likely to be here to come and see what's happening. we still don't know exactly when, but when he arrives, what we are expecting him to see is really an illustration of what many say is perhaps the truest picture of what the cost of war actually is. civilians as always, innocent civilians paying the highest price for the global brinkman ship of world leaders. mr. blinking has been saying that they will continue to support ukraine as other world leaders in the west have been saying. they will continue to support the war effort as well as the humanitarian relief effort. but the people that we've spoken to here, they're crossing over, say that, you know, it's simply not enough. they everyone, we speak to from ukraine,
1:17 pm
saying that what they want is a no fly zone. what they want is a more military footing by their allies in the west. and of course, western leaders say that they can't do that. they don't want to trigger more direct conflict with russia, but the fact of the matter is these ukrainians who have crossed in people from all different nationalities. ukraine is a bit of a melting pot. everyone has been crossing in has been fleeing a country that is already at war for people here. their worlds have already really come crashing down around them. we've been speaking to several volunteers here. i'd like to speak to a woman now who's been here for several days helping translate, helping board, helping people per bedroom. but for lillia, when thank you for talking to us, you've been here for a few days. you said that this is one of the busiest times you've seen since the beginning of the cost. can you describe a little bit of the scenes you've seen of the work you've been doing? ok so that i feel like when they just arrived. what astonished me is the number of
1:18 pm
children and women coming, crossing the border. and it's really struggling very big. meaning i was quite emotional, but then i needed to change my mind said to help those people across the board there safely. and in a very nicely manner, you know, and we've been busy for the 2 days, but then the 4th day. so it was yesterday that we saw the biggest influx of people at this border where we, i was loading people for a good to 12 hours in buses like this and, and yeah, it's been really hectic. i am definitely keep the price. but thankfully, there's a lot of volunteers. i am really happy with the fact that people mobilized this much and came to help. we have french medics. we have israel medics. we have canadian medics coming here just to help out. and i think that is beautiful.
1:19 pm
actually. no volunteers are here from all over the world, but their leaders are still sort of holding back any sort of direct action. if you could speak to the you a secretary of state who's visiting your city of warsaw and who's coming here. if you could speak to them directly, what would you say to him right now? what, what does this crisis need? i would say that governments need to act more properly. and for instance, even with poland managers, we do help but as private citizens, right? but we need more public inputs and governmental infants from all countries. not only pull and actually because not only full and is hosting the ukranian refugees. i see people here wanting to go to germany, france, holland. and i don't feel like anyone is actually, any government is actually prepared for them properly. thank you very much for your time. thank you for your efforts. we look forward to seeing you more. thank you. so that's the situation here. you know, we were here just a couple of days ago and it was empty here. it was very quiet. all of these piles
1:20 pm
of supplies were gone. there was no tense, it was just a pile of garbage and there was no line here. now we're seeing a bus pull up, load up with people and then drive away, but by the time the bus is driven away, there's at least 2 more buses worth of people that have lined up. so this of a push of people crossing the border really is an ebb and flow. it's like, it's like a, it's like it's keeping pace like a heartbeat with events on the ground in ukraine. and if this is any indication, the circumstances across the border certainly are ratcheting up quickly, and we will likely see more and more people push across into the border and into poland. thank you so much as empathy is reporting from the ukraine, poland border. meanwhile, russia government has walked facebook, it's restricted access to twitter, and it's also banned, some foreign media websites that officer approved a new law against what it considers, fake news and response. bloomberg announced it will pull its journalists out of
1:21 pm
fresh off while sienna and we'll stop broadcasting their russia communications watchdog says it's documented more than 20 cases of what it's called discrimination by facebook's owner meta platform. since late 2020 facebook has banned the accounts of state bank channels r t. r i a news agency and response to russia. as new law matters, head of global affairs. nick klegg tweeted this. millions of ordinary russians will find themselves cut off from reliable information deprived of their everyday ways of connecting with family and friends and silence from speaking out. we will continue to do everything we can to restore our services, so they remain available to people to safely unsecurely express themselves and organize for action for moscow or sit jabari has more on that new media law which includes prison sentences in your playing. yeah. and then, you know, to war was the final statement broadcast on russia's last independent tv channel,
1:22 pm
tv, rain, all its employees, walked out and protests against what the c, a severe government censorship and in its final seconds on air. it showed this a nod to russian history. this one like ballet performance was broadcast on state tv in the soviet era, either at times of political crises or after the death of a leader. it was famously shown in 1991 during the attempted coup that contributed to the end of the soviet union. for many here it's now become a symbol of broken dreams and political instability. tv rain was founded in 2010, with the motto, talk about important things with those who are important to us. now, after the start of russia, so called special military operation in ukraine,
1:23 pm
this channel is no longer able to continue because of government interference. on friday, both houses of parliament past the new law aimed a targeting media outlets that are accused of spreading fake information. it is now a criminal offense to spread what the government considers misinformation about its military, a crime which could land a journalist in prison for up to 15 years. members of the russian government believe this is crucial in protecting the armed forces mission, which you with to daughter taking into account the situation that is happening in the media space. all right, the company starting for instruct them to say and others are located in the united states of america. it is understandable that they're used as weapons. they're bringing hatred and lice, must counter it, and protect armed forces. the hammer of state censors have also targeted one of the most well known radio stations in the country echo of moscow took to the airwaves
1:24 pm
in august of 1990. shortly before the fall of the soviet union, the following year, its motto, all significant points of view about events should be presented no longer appears to apply to journalists in russia. tatiana fell gower was a journalist working at both tv, rain and echo of moscow. ethel, jasmine epl, rosner at the the, it's terrible, it's a catastrophe, a true catastrophe. an absolutely terrific mistake by vladimir putin who decided to plunge russia into this. i will say it again. catastrophe. and i'm terribly scared both for my country and for ukraine. i'm terribly ashamed in front of ukrainians. it's incredible for me to realize that the president of my country started this and i'm afraid that there's nothing go ahead for my country. and for me, as a citizen, russia's independent media are slowly disappearing, accused of falsely depicting the war in ukraine. no, why? yeah, because that is one of the last independent newspapers here, and it's editor,
1:25 pm
me to morris hop who share the nobel peace prize last year. says his paper could be on the verge of shutting down. that's because according to him, anything that's not propaganda is being eliminated. doors of laurie algae 0 moscow . cathy. julie is with the university of missouri school of journalism and she says, the journalist, no matter where they're based, we'll find ways to continue reporting the new i think that's the thing. i think that's why putin is so frustrated because nobody believes is propaganda. and, and so it's, it's very difficult for him to get his message across. and he thinks that by stifling other voices, somehow he'll be able to dominate the conversation. but instead, you know, it really shows him, the gas lights are off. now this is a guy who's been gas lighting world through social media through spreading lies on social media. that's why i find that the shut down of facebook, so ironic and,
1:26 pm
and now he's turned up the lights and exposed himself for exactly what he is, which is i'm a strong man, a dictator. somebody who will brook now. dissent and doesn't want to free press and, and really isn't interested in the truth. but i think in the end, it's a very sad day right now for journalism, particularly, and that part of the world. but in the end, truth is mightier than tanks. here with the news our analogies, iran still ahead warning about a growing climate disaster, the world's facing a wild life crisis in the coming decades. and china, us government sets, it's lowest economic growth target and more than 3 decades. we'll have a report from the sports news a little later in the fallout from russia. one ukraine has claimed the career of a formula. one driver. ah,
1:27 pm
there was stormy weather. we've seen across northern europe for the whole winter is sort of slow down to some degree. there is a big area of settled where the big area wanted at well to like a split one and soccer and here at cycling day, which means the weather is quite often squashed. often foggy, often, while a cold rushes saves money, just march through a spring lambs in north germany, that they won't like it very much. temperatures are in the low single figures and most of central and eastern europe. the stormy weather. down here in the balkans there are few showers usefully elsewhere, for example, in spain and portugal. but the picture of the most part is a quiet one. the winds are not as strong as often gloomy. burdens any 4 degrees. in fact, to look north job is represented by betting data to degrees on sunday. the average should be for those lambs at 9 degrees, sarajevo is sitting in similar weatherford by
1:28 pm
a week ago. it still snow contemptuous, hovering round the freezing bark, and is not particularly windy, just overcast. to so useful rain, although sometimes quite heavy in some parts of southeastern spain, extending into north africa. huge amounts of stone in the balkans, bulgaria, and also into northern greece slowly eventually crossed the aegean to into rain or snow. of course, once again in turkey, ah, ah, stories and inspiration. a series of short documentary from around the world that celebrate the human spirit against the od. ah, how does your select gang?
1:29 pm
ah, the shake um od award for translation and international understanding is accepting nominations for the year 2022. from february 15th, until august, 15th this year, for more information go to w, w, w dot h t a dot q a slash e n. ah, oh, a how again the top stories on the i'll just renew our russians, declared a temporary cease fire in and around. your poll unfold no to allow people to leave
1:30 pm
true humanitarian corridors. both cities have been under heavy, one bargains by russia and forces the ukrainian city, if it's journey has come under heavy fire overnight. it's about a 140 kilometers from the capital. russian air strikes have calls extensive damage to homes in the area. the current president and all of them are zaleski, has criticize nathan's refusal to create a no fly zone over his country. he says the alliance will be to blame for any further death construction. so let's take a closer look at which side is that to control what russia and it's allied separate of forces. now hold all of the areas that are shaded in reads. there are believe to have completely surrounded because the city of maria, poland, have been subjecting it to intense fighting. russian troops have also entered the black sea port of me calliah for the 1st time. but they're facing staunch resistance. ukraine 2nd city of car key was one of russia 1st targets. but despite
1:31 pm
heavy shelling, it's still under ukrainian control. further north russian forces are expanding their offensive on the outskirts of keys, but the capital itself is still in ukrainian hands. the british government says it's moving quickly to seize the u. k based fortunes of russian, billionaires who have ties to the kremlin. but critics, a change isn't happening fast enough, allowing business leaders to move their assets before the sanctions come in. if worker reports for london, ah, the cranium board only got mikka. friedman bought athlone house in 2016. he paid more than $80000000.00 for it in cash. he's now subject to international sanctions in the european union asset freezes and travel bands. but he's not for now at least facing sanctions here in the u. k. meaning that this huge property is still very much in private hands. a man described in the e u as a close member of vladimir putins in a circle,
1:32 pm
a sure assa telecom. now al jazeera and surprisingly, we weren't invited in admission. like many of russia's big business tycoon with large investments in the u. k. freedman, the owner of russia's alpha bank, has robbed shoulders who had british high society. but he's accused of having one foot in the business world and the other the criminal world because of his membership of pollutants close in a circle of rich man who made their fortune buying and selling state assets after the collapse of the soviet union. they're allowed to hold on to their well, if they help protect putin's, that's until russia's invasion of ukraine and a tidal wave of international sanctions, the west weapon of choice. but in decision over the speed of sanctions in the u. k . could allow some of putin's associates to get their money out of the country before it's frozen. everybody is scrambling to move assets,
1:33 pm
sell things that you know, get their loot out of harm's way. i fear that by the time we get to sanctions here in the u. k, a lot of the assets will be gone the past few days, the you case most famous oligarch, roman abram of it. shes been in a hurry to sell off chelsea football club after 19 years of ownership. like friedman abramoff which is avoided british sanctions so far denying, he has a seat at putin's table. a few more obvious signs of how entrenched russian money is here in the british capital, the roman abramoff, which is $15.00 bedroom mansion, and one of the most expensive, heavily guarded streets in europe. now apparently on the market for $200000000.00. elsewhere, france and germany have ceased to super yachts own by oligarchs alley show smart, often ego session with at least 5 other c. p. yachts, owned by russian, billionaires anchored or cruising in the mold eaves. the country that doesn't have
1:34 pm
an extradition treaty with the us putins money is on the move. the british government says there were legal reasons for lagging sanctions being imposed to make sure that water tight against legal challenges. but top law is worn. those challenges may be few and far between now we have a situation where no lawyer in london will happily take on a case like that because we will be criticized by government ministers. we will be identified by name in parliament's, named and shamed and we will be criticized them. the press is the reason the british capitals being nicknamed london grad, allegedly used to lorne devoss summers of illicit russian money, an error that could be coming to an end for when it comes to sanctions. the government's been urged to keep up the pace or risk softening the blow. the bulk al jazeera london had at the you and nuclear watchdog has met iranian officials into
1:35 pm
iran. that's us talks to revive the 2015 nuclear deal in vienna, appear to be reaching an end or fail. grossi says they're still matters that need to be addressed by iran. there were particular number of matters that are still pending for resolution and verification that ard before the board of governors of the i 8th and have been there for quite some time. both sides ran e had b vi and had been trying to work towards a verification at least that so far our efforts had not been crowned with success. let sabrina russell father. he's joining us from time around. so are we getting a sense from grosse or so whether these issues in these differences can be bridged?
