4:01 pm
a warning. the conflict in ukraine is pushing millions of people towards hunger, while aid workers appeal for help. in other news, the head of the un nuclear watchdog says several issues are still unresolved with iran. will have a report from to her on. and australia pays tribute to one of its voting icons. shane warne often staff at the age of $52.00 prime ministers, got morrison, his coat, had one of the nations and greatest characters. and one of the kind ah welcome to the news. our ukraine's president says a temporary cease fire announced by moscow is now on hold because of violations by russian forces. fighting was meant to stop and mario paula, and valona of cod to allow safe passage of civilians out of harm's way. my uncle has been under seeds for days and has come under a constant shelling. bernard smith is joining us now from donny asked,
4:02 pm
so would the reports of the cease fire violations, bernard? what does this mean for the humanitarian corridors? during the russians said that they opened this humanitarian humanitarian car door and it would be ready between 10 am and 4 pm local time. they've got my apple. i'm vulnerable and circled. and they said this monetary cargo was to allow the population. anyone who wanted to leave to leave is about 450000 people involving a slightly larger number. and mario awful, the russians accused the ukrainians of not observing the sci fi and the leader of the people's republic. here, denise shilling, he says that no one has left of old and vulnerable because all the car door has been shelled by drones operated by what he calls ukrainian nationalists. and
4:03 pm
despite the ceasefire, i should also say the russians that they will continue their broad offensive into what they are calling this special operation. there are hopes the russians say from that start to try and reestablish that humanitarian corridor. if they can agree a ceasefire again with the cravings. all right, thank you so much for that reporting from don. yet while ukraine's president is kizzie nato of giving russia the green light to further bombard and kill ukrainians, follow the resolution. sky says the alliances refusal to establish a no fly zone, only add to civilian deaths. was she, lord d 0. d jo. all people who die from this day forward will die because of you because of your weakness because of your lack of unity. all that the alliance was able to do today was to pass foods procurement system, 50 tons of diesel fuel for ukraine, or perhaps so that we could burn the budapest memorandum guaranteeing ukraine
4:04 pm
security oil. meanwhile, russia's foreign minister has her back as zalinski speech, accusing him of wanting to provoke further conflict to sloan broke roster. also still not her. it's zalinski so unhappy with nato not interfering than that means he's hoping to resolve this conflict by involving nato. it means he's not hearing statements from european capitals, saying they won't get involved. it means he wants to provoke a conflict between nato and russia. that's the mood he's in. this mood indicates that he doesn't need negotiations with us, but that may change because of course, he's a moody person. so that was la ross making earlier on lesbian. natasha butler. she's joining us from the v. if the last tell us more about what the russian foreign minister had to say, yes, russian foreign minister didn't have much. oh, good to say, of course about ukrainian president all ukrainian authorities are ukranian
4:05 pm
authorities. he said, or were preventing a doctor evacuation of citizens from mary paul this town on the sea of as off in the south of ukraine, a sci fi is supposed to be taking place there between a russian troops and ukrainian forces. but that doesn't seem to be happening because there is still some fight there. is you heard back never off is saying that that is the fault of the ukrainian side of ukrainian groups who are not allowing that humanitarian corridor he's fired to take place. he also talks about a zalinski followed him, is lensky, the cranium, present, accusing him of trying to provoke nato, possibly tried to provoke nato into, into the coming part of this conflict. so, fighting talk from the russian foreign minister, of course, is nothing that you wouldn't expect. this is a rush, or of course, it is at war with ukraine that invaded some 10 days ago. now, as lensky earlier, he did call on nato to try and impose
4:06 pm
a no fly zone over the country. he says that would help stop a russian jets and planes of form bombarding a cities and towns across the country. nato has made it very clear that they do not intend to do that. or yet, stuart and burge the head of later, are saying that they won't be any way in which the alliance is going to send jets to shoot down, or use any form of or artillery to shoot down russian planes over a ukrainian air space. because that would basically draw the military alliance into this war. something that a western allies said they do not want to be part of in that way. nato is though, however, a supplying military hardware. much of it is coming over the border from poland, not far from where i am in to ukraine for now. that is what they are doing. they are boosting their borders as well, with troops for zalinski says that they need so much more his country. i can't, i can't cope against to such
4:07 pm
a strong attacks from russia. ukrainian force is doing everything. bacon was lensky, says they need a lot more help and they want nato to help more. all right, thank you so much. latasha butler as reported from the vive in ukraine. let's now take a closer look at which side is set to control what. so russia and it's allied separate . this forces now hold all the areas right there, shaded in red. they've besieged the coastal city of mario pole. there are reports, a temporary cease fire to allow people to leave is being violated. as you've been hearing. russian troops have also entered the black sea port of nicola for the 1st time, but they are facing major resistance. ukraine 2nd city of car key was one of russia 1st targets. but despite heavy shelling, it's still under ukrainian control. and if you take a look at further, north, russian forces are expanding their offensive on the outskirts of keys. but the capital itself is still in ukrainian hands. al jazeera was armored
4:08 pm
luffy is an odessa in southern ukraine with more on the situation there. the bottom of the latest we have here is that to me, sales it a village located about 25 kilometers from this farming facility was the main target in that village. no one was killed or injured as a result of the strike. however, the 2 missiles cars must have damage. this has become the daily routine shift. the city was seized by the russians. residents are caught with prevention and caution for fear of what to come next as fighting rages in and around the 3 southern cities . kershawn me calliah in odessa, kershawn was the 1st to fall into the russian hands since the beginning of their campaign. the green president and officials accused the russians of attempting to turn the city into separatist republic. like those of the east. the russians started to remove the national telephone networks and braced them the address once
4:09 pm
russian t. v stations also started to take premises. here. these moves are met with grass roots rejection by the local resident. today, russian sent to comb with trucks. men loaded with a to kershawn, but the residents refused to take any of the assistance. instead, they took to the streets, protesting against the russian presence. in odessa, the porch didn't come under attack, but they are not operational in the city is home to grange tree key porch economists and tourist capital of the country. shops and restaurants are also close due to the current circumstances, as residents brace for what to come to. it should be noted that pressure worships, are anchored off shore. they try to come closer to day, but the bad weather caused them to retreat. the ukrainian army warned of any landing from the sea and retreated. they are ready to offended off a certain baba because a ukrainian member of parliament and he explains why
4:10 pm
a no fly zone is very critical. it, what we can do with you can do is to make a no fly zone on your grave because russia ration has much more aircraft, much more helicopter, and much more in for the actually every day we have bomb being the have bombing was missiles, with bumps with aircrafts, etc. so we don't have so many aircrafts, we are trying to fight and we will fight if you're seeing that putting a stop in the ukraine, you'll see trunk. actually the next countries will be falling flat. lots the little mold dollars, etc. he will never stop using st. actually. he want us to be destroyed. action as it comes with a free country. he don't want us to be free. that if that if you are clear, clear message, that is why i think he will not stop in europe. he will continue his expansion. that is why we should make a no fly zone. it doesn't mean that your european aircraft to fly under your grain
4:11 pm
and ukrainian sky, but it means that the aircraft missiles will protect us, will protect key of the will protect harkey of other cities with civilians and our plans. you know that we have 5, so they're not mistaken. 5 nuclear plants and this is in the upper asia that is under attack for the last couple of days. it is 6 times bigger than your mobile. so that is why it will be disaster for the whole europe, for the whole world. that is why we need to know face on fasick with andrea for the, for the roof, excuse me. he's a former deputy foreign minister of russia. he's joining us on sky from moscow. welcome to al jazeera sir. so even though nato has ruled out imposing a no fly zone, as of now, russia is still facing diplomatic boycotts. it's facing unprecedented sanctions air travel plans and generally widespread international isolation. how is the fall being viewed in moscow?
4:12 pm
first of all, i would like to say that there is mode of fears. this appointment in russia because no one at the top in kremlin, expected such kind of pressure from western countries. and of course, the sanctions will influence very seriously on economy, for example, in transportation sector, etcetera. but for the situation as they, as it is now nearly impossible to think that pressure will stop it's made to reparation. because put in the class very clearly, that his goal is 3 points. you try to ukraine demilitarization of ukraine and then as if in case not a grade. and all of these 3 goals are very, very hard to reach, even with middle reparation. right? so when the foreign minister surg elaborate says moscow would press on with its
4:13 pm
military operation in ukraine until quote the end. what does he mean by that? are you referring to these 3 points? yes, but in practical terms my, the means that russian rama will surround give and then there will be a kind of made them for maybe for 24 hours. was it ask you to resign for government to resign, to declare something like interim government or something like this? because from military point of view, the very dangerous to stop mil pac on here because it can bring all of the damages . and the also, let's not forget that key if it's playing very important historical role in rational history. because in russia it's called the mother of all the references. so, i mean, the longer this go goes on,
4:14 pm
it seems like the more pressure is being piled on piece. and we even heard from the u. k. defense secretary ben wallace has said, it's not too late for putin to end. his invasion of ukraine saying that he's risking his nation being isolated for, for a decade to come with all this increasing pressure. and even we saw diplomatic, you turn by germany for example. it's doubling its defense budget. it's boosted its military contribution to nate. so does this all not matter at all to putin and those, those around him and this stage? not because he declared very clear goal that ukraine as if these today should be changed, should be changed. and i agree that he will not stop. i know him for many years, he will not stop and most probably in the coming 56 days. the mid 3 peroration will be extended to much more territory by the way. good. and got this. so see deal for this. so what is the strategy then?
4:15 pm
i mean, for someone who's worked obviously in the defense ministry in an authoritative position in a position of authority, excuse me. he still is negotiating with the ukrainians on the border with bella. ruth, 2 rounds of talk so far. there is a 3rd round, reportedly scheduled at some point soon. yes. he's attempting to, to advance on the ground. what is the strategy there? the strategy is, as far as i can understand, is that this 3rd route which should happen in the coming days, will be probably the last one because on humanitarian issues. yes. that understanding that possibly you went there in corridor, but on the 3rd round, the main question is that russian delegation will, once again, an automated form will present these demands for you,
4:16 pm
great inside. and this political issues cannot be sol. and i think we might expect that after this, around of the distributions, all the contacts will be simple matched. let me ask you about some numbers that have been coming out of the russian defense ministry. in fact, just earlier this week, it is confirming that now there are casualties in ukraine. 498 russian troops have died according to the russian defense ministry and a 1597 reportedly injured houses being viewed by, by people in moscow. so 1st of all,
4:17 pm
i would like to say that this number is much bigger the day. and of course, a 3rd grade, a lot of concerns that as long as this mentor abridge will continue, we can face are much more losses. and one thing which people, i afraid that her, her, it might turn into what we call afghani zation of the war. it means that there will be not only resistance on the frontal line, but on their territories where the russian troops are present now. so it will be a kind of mix of a normal ok in brackets, of course, normal war and parties on war. ok, we'll leave it there. thank you so much for joining us from moscow. now i'll, i'll just there as martha. her son has been to a children's hospital in cave, which has been handling an influx of casualties from the war. i work with several of the medical crews are working at the maximum capacity. many of them have not
4:18 pm
been home for days. all wards are prepared to accommodate for more casualties. whether from the fighting front or victims of shelling, ambulances were reported coming our way. now, this is the city's pediatric hospital where we see mainly child patients of cancer . children from all other ukrainian cities are coming here. it's now treating both child and adult casualties like the areas around the hospital had been bombarded over the past few days. the hospital building itself was hit by shell on friday. more than a 1000000 people have now fled the fighting in ukraine, and the un is warning. it could lead to the worst refugee crisis. the century 1000 have been leaving from towns on the outskirts of the ukrainian capital keys. many cars have signs in their windows. thank children and evacuation to avoid being targeted by russian troops, residential areas and centers such as which an airplane have been subject to intense shelling. on many of those leaving ukraine are fleeing to poland. us sector,
4:19 pm
stay down to the blinking is there and he is met the foreign minister to discuss the conflict. poland is doing vital work to respond to this crisis. it's hosted increased nato presence and supported the robust you sanctions against russia. and it is done a great deal to facilitate security assistance to ukraine. poland will never recognize territorial tent is brought about by and provoked, unlawful aggression. the way in which it conducts castille is based on the desire to break the will of ukrainian resistance by means of attacks. the terrorized civilians population selling residential areas, nuclear power plants and no military or vacated or war crimes on their
4:20 pm
international. lo, which are not subjected to start you off the mutation. let's riggins and mr. ivy who is joining us from a crossing on the ukraine colon border before you describe to us what you've been seeing on the grounds and just tell us about the us secretary of states visits and what was the message that he was sending out well, anthony, blinking did come to poland with his counterpart to assess the crisis for himself. no doubt speaking to people on the ground who are working on the problem dealing with refugee is looking at the military aspect of it all. he did say reinforcing you as president biden's comments that the united states will not let russia encroach on a single inch of nato terrain, but in their lives. the problem nato turned specifically, ukrainians say that that is simply not enough. many of the people be spoken to here echo presidency. lensky, the president's comments in which he has described nato's response towards the
4:21 pm
russian envision of his country as week. and even though mister blinking is expected to visit a reception center, refugees are taken to he is unlikely to come here to the pedestrian crossing at the medic, a border where things are still very chaotic. let me just walk you around. the scenes here are adding and flowing a couple of days ago. it was absolutely quiet here and there were no more stalls of this kind. there were no people here. very few coming in slowly i was really a trickle. now a couple of days later, we're seeing the busiest days we've seen since the beginning of the crisis. one of the volunteers here told us that a 115000 people crossed in just yesterday just you know, 24 hour period. and when they arrive, they arrive to a long line, you know, line where people have to wait for buses that then take them into cities inside poland as well as across into other cities. in europe,
4:22 pm
we've seen people in all sorts of circumstances, children, the elderly, there's a great deal of vulnerability, once people cross over, they are tired, they are weak, and they say that they feel isolated. they say that they know that poland has done a lot to help them. they know that more help is coming, but it simply isn't coming fast enough to stop their country from slowly being digested one bit at a time by the russian military. and they keep saying one thing over and over again, once more, truly echoing their president's comments. president lindsey's comments that what they need is a no fly zone to stop the air. little bard meant of their cities, their towns, their villages, their homes. everyone we've spoken to who comes in from ukraine's says that a no fly zone is something that we sincerely help to stop the onslaught. but that, of course, puts nato, puts us forces in direct conflict with
4:23 pm
a russian forces, which is something that everywhere leader reasonably so things could trigger a broader global conflict, which would only make things worse. but for the russians here, i apologize for the ukrainian citizens here as well as others fleeing from ukraine is refugees into poland. they've already seen what war with russia. it looks like they are currently at war with russia, and they have simply lost their whole world. so for them, they feel as though the broader international community is simply standing by and forcing them to go it alone with the russian army. all right, thank you so much. empathy is reporting from the ukraine. poland border will now go back to ukraine and bring in charles stratford, who is in the village of hev or escape that's along the humanitarian corridor. and charles with the reports of the fire violations, just tell us what you are seeing where you are. because i understand that many of those fleeing the fighting were hoping to take refuge there.
4:24 pm
well, we've heard a lot of heavy shilling this morning. we are south of the town of the city of zap parisha. the road behind me. we were expecting to see buses and carloads of people coming out from the area of mariel to the cause that you can see behind me. now, many of them having the white signs on the window that we know we've seen so often saying that there are children on board. we understand the majority of these vehicles are not fleeing mary awful, but we've spoken to people further down this road and who have who come out of villages in between mary opal and here one man said that the, the russians was shelling areas of this road or a 10 kilometers or so back and they were showing the sides of the road that the nearby fields and shrapnel had ripped off. his tire of his wheel was pretty much destroyed. and he had had to drive as fast as he can to relative safety to
4:25 pm
a village before abandoning his car. many the villages, as you can imagine, are absolutely terrified. they say that the situation is deteriorated dramatically since we understand that that cease fire failed. we can confirm whether the shelling that we've heard this morning was either incoming or outgoing. but obviously if there is this road or areas on this road that is being shelled, that would suggest indeed it is. russian shelling listings as aids live there as well is consistent with what we're hearing from villages here. they are pleading with the international community for some sort of no fly zone to be implemented. but as we know, that has huge implications for a potential wider conflict involving the u. s. forces involving nato. but yeah, there is a great sense of conic hair as people, as those that have managed to get out, continue along this road interestingly. so when we traveled,
4:26 pm
i suppose it was about an hour ago further. further down towards mary opal, we pumped we passed a checkpoint, a checkpoint, that was just being set up. there were military there, there were tanks there. there were anti aircraft guns there as we came back down this road to get better connectivity to be able to give you this live. that check point had been abandoned and the woods hanks heading in that direction. so we understand, certainly according to villages that there is showing going on as close as 10 kilometers from here, which is a long way up the road from mary awful. i suppose, apparition of the city that those are already paid. those people being brought out on that convoy we're heading towards is around 30 kilometers further in that direction. and as i say, that's simply not happening now. so a lot of fear, a lot of panic. and as i say, the movement of the military and indication of things really change,
4:27 pm
you potentially quite dramatically fast. all right, thank you so much. charles charles stratford reporting from crane now the u. n. 's world troop program is trying to feed 5000000 people in desperate need inside ukraine and its director general david beasley says those have managed to escape are the lucky ones. the w. f. p has set up distribution warehouses and neighboring countries to get food, to people in ukraine. let's talk about the humanitarian angle and bring an old out . rodney versus a volunteer at the help ukraine centers is joining us live from china. that's on the border between poland and ukraine. thank you for your time. i understand that your organization delivers aid to various parts of ukraine. how challenging has that been? well actually would fill a lot of supports from give all over the road. you know, people are driving off from you gave for 27 hours, driving that spots and they are unloading the whole a truck with their hands. they are so supportive in everything they do. so working
4:28 pm
here is really blasphemy because you know, i'm not in ukraine under bon banks. i can do some things for ukraine being here in the house and feeling all this uniting for people in support to all for ukraine, from those people who are coming here. so but the same time it's physically and psychologically very difficult because physically you are helping you're working on stop. no sleep and psychological, you're reading the use all the time and all your loved ones and your family and your team is and kids and you keep writing to them and they keep writing to her asking for help. right. and you have all this loads of products here. yeah. but you also say that it's not possible to deliver to every hub in every city. correct? absolute at some place just are blocked in ukraine. od jude to the russian army. they're actually do not allowed to bring their ah humanitarian aids. but as far as
4:29 pm
a know i've been dawned to deliver as that, that whatever we collect collected here ah, to ukraine where it's possible. and what is it that people in ukraine mostly needs of people in ukraine mostly need food in some places they ran out of food, whatever they have in the shopping centers is very, very expensive. they can afford that. they need medical medical mentation, like pills, everything they can't access pharmacies for days and some places they need water, they need hygiene and that's what we are there also a lot of warm closes, but that's not the number one priority to number one. priority is food to keep people alive, apply water and medical mentation, actually to, to help them, whatever station it. and if the war continues, what do you think is at stake here for the people?
4:30 pm
you know, i'm sure the world will do everything ukrainian and government is doing his best. but to have our strong nation on the plan. you know, there is no blame. that's fraud. there is no way how we can, you know, are there is no 10 be like we said, we keep going. we keep fighting and we believe we'll get back to our country and we'll leave it there. thank you so much for speaking to us from thank you very much . still ahead on al jazeera, we turn to the u. s. to see how domestic gas prices could affect the future sanctions on russia. why the shadow of a disgraced former south graham president looms large as her country votes in a presidential election in sport? the fallout from the russia ukraine war has claimed the career of a formula. one driver
4:31 pm
ah, take take the ships to democracies, activists to corporations, control of the message is crucial. oil companies have become very good at recognizing ways to phrase what they want him to hear. we care about the environment you do to, you should buy our oil cleared for public opinion or profit. once you make people afraid, you can use that to justify stripping away basic civil liberties. the listening post examined the vested interest behind the content you consume on al jazeera, bitcoin block chain, and crypto currencies. disruptive technology join with me and introducing a bill to outlaw crypto currency, all the way to a fair, a financial system. because open source software, we can credo, or money without banks or governments award winning filmmaker. thorsten hoffman looks at all sides of the complex crypto well crypto. pia bitcoin look changed in
4:32 pm
the internet on al jazeera. oh, i our on al jazeera here is a reminder off the top stories this our current president says, a temporary cease fire announced by moscow is now on hold. because a violation by russian forces fighting was meant to stop him or your poland vulgar enough to allow the safe passage of civilians out of harm's way. the russians for a minister circuit law back at ukrainian president voluntarism gets comments about nato, not wanting to impose a no fly zones. he's accused him of one thing worse than the conflict. us said
4:33 pm
anthony blink and has thanked poland for a wealth coming hundreds of thousands of the premium refugees. the un says the number of people fleeing the worth of reach one and a half 1000000 by the end of the weekend crowds if ukrainians have gathered in the city of her son in the south to protest against russia's takeover of their city. it's the largest city moscow has taken since its invasion. a few crane began 10 days ago, ukraine's president has back the protests. russia's government has blocked. facebook is restricted access to twitter and it's banned. some foreign media websites. that's after it approved a new law against what it considers fake news and response. bloomberg announced that we'll pull it's journalists out of russia while cnn will stop broadcasting their rushes. communications watchdog says it's documented more than 20 cases of what it calls discrimination by facebook's owner. mega metal platforms, since late 2020 facebook has bound the accounts of state bank channels
4:34 pm
r t and r i a news agency. now in response to russia, new law matters had a global affair. neglect tweeted this. millions of ordinary russians will find themselves cut off from reliable information to prior to their everyday ways of connecting with family and friends in silence. from speaking out, we will continue to do everything we can to restore services, so they remain available to people to safely and securely express themselves and organize for action. i'll just there is dorothy jabari is in moscow. she has more on the new media law, which includes prison sentences. and you're playing yeah. touch than you know, to war was the final statement broadcast on russia's last independent tv channel, 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
4:35 pm
and 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. t v reign 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, 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
4:36 pm
a criminal offense to spread what the government considers misinformation about its military 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 he, trade 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 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. tatyana falcon, gower was
4:37 pm
a journalist working at both tv, rain, and echo of moscow. ether, rosner, epl, rosner, 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 is 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? because that is one of the last independent newspapers here and its editor, 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. door safari out to 0,
4:38 pm
moscow county. julie is with the university of missouri school of journalism. she says, journalists no matter where they're based, will find ways to continue reporting the news. i think that's the thing, i think that's why putin is so frustrated because nobody believes his 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 the world through social media through spreading lies on social media. that's why i find the shutdown of facebook. so ironic. and now he's turned up the lights and exposed himself for exactly what he is, which is a strong man, a dictator. somebody who will brook now. dissent and doesn't want to free press and really isn't interested in the true. but i think in the end, it's
4:39 pm
a very sad day right now for journalism, particularly, and that part of the world. but in the end, truth is mightier than tanks. as world leaders and post of sanctions on russia for a tour in ukraine, they're aware that their countries will likely feel the impacts of that move. merican, for example, are seeing some of their highest petrol prices in years. even though russian oil hasn't been sanctioned. gabriel is on the explains why from new york the unprecedented sanctions are directly aimed at the russian economy of indiana was the predicted. there could be a wider effect on the global economy as well, particularly, and higher prices of petrol. and that's exactly what we're now starting to see here in new york, the price of a gallon of petrol in some places is over $5.00, or just over $1.25 a liter. it's a highest. it's been since 2014 just overnight thursday and friday,
4:40 pm
