3:03 am
and ukrainians hangs heading towards russian positions. we range hold are only around 20 kilometers south of here will be speaking to villages in this area. they tell us what the situation is deteriorated dramatically today. i am well now this group of people said they had neighborhood shilling as intense as little as you out . parents away said we were born during the war with the nazis guy and we would die during of well if i heard the soil rejects peyton's dead body life, how is it possible they are next of kin? how can they do this? so my relatives are in russia, we have their blood and they have ours that are you on a boat that a he was young. yeah, there's no electricity. we have no idea what's going on around us. my son is fighting in dumbass. i haven't heard from him for 4 days. i don't even know if he's still alive. do you?
3:04 am
there was a little boy. with the owner of this car is a shell, destroyed his wheel as he tried to drive his family to safety with silicon, it hit here and smashed the wheel. the russians a shelling, even though they saw cars with science, st. children inside driving back north to die parisha the roads, quiet ukrainian tanks at its south shall stratford al jazeera, near as upper risha. eastern ukraine was lens. he has ramped up calls for the west to do more in an appeal to congressional leaders in the united states. he dressed more than 300 officials by video link to push for no fly zone of ukraine and more lethal aid. let's make now to our course one of my kana who's in washington dc. standing by for says it might tell us more about this. a video called that presidency lensky made but it was
3:05 am
a call that lasted about 15 minutes and president lensky up 9. the ongoing crisis within his country made a specific plea for more military hardware and in particular, jet aircraft, along with drones. this is something that the u. s. has not provided at the stage, although it has provided a great deal of military hardware in recent weeks, including javelin missiles. but president lensky also brought up the fact that he had enough evidence to convict president putin off war crimes. and asked for members of congress to help him in this prosecution at several senators, off to it said that they would do what they could to help him in this particular end. among them. senator liz: the graham who to put out a tweet, outlining what precedence zalinski had told the senators in the course of that speech. and also making very clear that he would do whatever he could to help president to lensky bring war crime charges against vladimir putin. so total
3:06 am
agreement among us senate and others who were on that video call of support for ukraine and of the need to provide more supplies, both military and humanitarian and all the while. another blow to russia's financial system with a mastercard visa taking action. well, that was very interesting because that was one of the items that president lensky spoke about in his speech as saying that master card and an visa should suspend operations in russia. well, within a matter of hours after he concluded that speech, the announcement came that both visa and mastercard are suspending all operations in russia. that means that if your ration and you but a visa card, you cannot use your master card or your visa card. so this obviously is a potentially a stunning economic blow against all of those in russia who use credit cards. so it's just an indication to up how closely as not only politicians in the us,
3:07 am
but also corporations are watching and listening to what president zalinski says. the fact that major corporations like this would act so quickly after he spoken in a matter of hours or my thanks letter, my kind of reporting that from wash d. c. well, in ukraine, fighting continues in several cities. that's in our, from jenna hall, who has more from the beef loser, she doing for her to see this is blogger, nikita demento. he lives in the eastern city of her keith and he's explaining to his followers how their donations are being spent to help civilians on the front line. oh. across ukraine, along shifting front lines from the north to the east and to the south. civilians are under attack. boy, when they emerge from basements such shelters as here in the town of your pin close
3:08 am
to keep. it is often to a landscape they can neither recognize nor comprehend. homes destroyed hospitals, overwhelmed heating, water and electricity cut off and with limited avenues of escape. that's why safe passage is so important. now. humanitarian corridors out of val, nevada, and the port city of merrier pole in the south failed on saturday because of continued russian attacks. negotiations are said to be ongoing. ukraine's resistance has done much to slow russia's ground advance so heavy a fire power is being unleashed from the air. yet the ukrainian governments urgent calls for a no fly zone have gone an onset, which explains this angry warning by president floaty mizzi lensky to the nato
3:09 am
alliance. that he and that he would all the people who die from this day forward will also die because of you because of your weakness. and because of your lack of unity, nato is not willing to shoot down russian aircraft and risk being drawn into a wider war with russia. so ukraine must act alone, for as long as its defense is lost. this is copied video from a russian helicopter gunship. and this is the sort of response ukraine's army is able to deliver one helicopter gunship down. oh. 7 and in the north, a russian warplane is down, it's wreckage smouldering among suburban homes. for those who do make it out of besieged and bombarded parts of the country, it is to leave that many come for now a place of safety behind the lines irina and her boys have fled to her keep leaving

3:18 am
a senior fellow at the atlantic councils, europe center. he says, the situation is highly volatile. what we're involved in is one of the most dangerous moments in international relations, since beach cuban missile crisis. and it's very important that cool heads and judicious judgment, prevail in washington, london, brussels, paris, and elsewhere is extremely important in these crises that leaders continue to talk to each other directly, indirectly, that military is, continues talk to each other and as far as possible, there are direct lines between them. it was one of the few positive signs we had in this conflict so far, that it's direct lines being established between the head of the russian army and his american counterpart in order that they can call each other in the event of an emergency. this regime is gone on now for a very long time. it's almost 23 years old. it started with putin as a figure. some was like 20 on a ton of kia, going to populate
3:19 am
a strong man. unclear whether or not the country was still more received, but he was very much in charge of a regime with 1000000000 as businessman, an importance of keeping public opinion. onside was become clear as the patient is making these decisions alone. and that the regime that we have now in russia is not a regime, it's a personalized dictatorship where your sector, state entity blinkin is in poland to see the scale of the refugee crisis 1st hand. the united nations to predicts the number of people fleeing the war will reach one and a half 1000000 in the next 24 hours. and as robbie reports now from the front of the border crossing on the polish side of the ukrainian border. are you not thought i put the boy still, but you have it all over now? will not last because it will be suddenly high. so close the skies over ukraine now . she says to stop rushing bombs, falling on their cities more. your more,
3:20 am
please post the skies. for your help us on much of a desperate plea from the ukranian people. something that us secretary of state anthony, blinking on his visit to poland, made clear will not happen. a 45 minute meeting with ukraine's foreign minister at the border, a public show of support at his country's darkest hour. the entire world stands with ukraine. just as i'm standing here in ukraine with my friend, my colleagues, do triple labor, the foreign minister of ukraine. if they continue to provide us with the necessary weapons, the price will be lower. this will save many lives in ukraine. many houses, many children will be born, many sufferings will be avoided. despite the symbolic visit,
3:21 am
direct american military help, something that could risk triggering a global conflict, stops at the polish border. volunteer say the anxiety uncertainty, frustration and sadness of refugees at the often chaotic medic, a border crossing must be seen to be understood. having skipped it on his tour, blinking, they say may struggle to comprehend the level of health ukraine needs. so that is one thing and i thing, and the actually doing thing is i can say a lot of boards do, but it doesn't mean anything. if i don't do anything with my hands, i'm not present here, i don't see it in my, with my eyes stops millions more, so could soon be making their way on the refugee trail. short of direct military intervention by any one. it will continue to be a growing challenge for ukrainian forces to stop the russian advance, let alone foot with bath. would we have been seeing here the medic? a border crossing is more and more medics and volunteer fighters with military gear,
3:22 am
with medical supplies. coming to this border, crossing, crossing into ukraine, and then making their way to the front line. ukrainians know they are isolated and largely alone in this fight. waiting for help from the outside world. fighter jets attack aircraft air defense systems, the kind of help they need to stop russia over running their country. the kind of help that is not coming. said basra, the l g 0 medical border crossing eastern. poland. what monica matters as a human rights for his work in poland capital of war. so and she says that help is needed from many countries to care for the refugees. like all of the refugees in the world. you know, the numbers are really yeah, huge and overwhelming. today it's confirmed at 8 over $800000.00 people from ukraine came already to poland and we know there will be more this is overwhelming
3:23 am
for anybody. it just would be overwhelming for all of you know, any country in the world and in poland. i cannot say we were well prepared, the lots of export that is being done right now to transport the people into the fed and more into the country to provide shelter and legal assistance them lot of to are majority even if it's on the shoulders, you know, local authority and non governmental organization. there is also no like idea what's going to happen in the future. so we're all working in an emergency mode. however, since then day it's not, it's not ending. we don't know where it's going to and we are just coming to deferred challenge, which is like basically and what next, you know, a lot of people are still right me. so don't know what's going to happen to them.
3:24 am
they think they are going to come back to your brain in a couple of a couple of weeks. so they don't want to, you know, i don't know a start looking for a job or an apartment or something because they just don't know what's going to happen. but, you know, as of today, we just have to deal with it. somehow. vladimir putin has held a 3 i meeting with israel's prime minister. naphtali bennett in moscow, bennett is now in germany, where he will brief. the chancellor left shoulds high forces in western them and has been following those talks. it's happened on the jewish sabbath the time when you wouldn't expect a religiously observant prime minister, such as natalie bennett to travel. but there is a provision in the religion to do so. if human life is at stake, which is clearly the case here, what we're hearing from the prime minister's office in israel is that the 2 men spoke for 3 hours in the kremlin that they of course spoke about the conflict in
3:25 am
ukraine that they spoke about, the israeli and jewish citizens in that country at risk. but also that they spoke about the situation in syria where of course, russia is heavily involved and where israel often carries out as strikes against iranian targets. and also about the iran nuclear deal to so fairly wide range of subjects over the course of 3 hours. the prime minister's office also telling us that this was done in coordination with the united states and also with germany and france. european media groups have joined international broadcasters in suspending operations in russia. it's in response to the introduction of a new law imposing jail time for publishing, while the criminal considers false information about the military, spanish in german broadcasters of the latest stopped working in moscow. on friday, the bbc, cnn, and bloomberg all halted their reporting from russia much as have taken place across europe in support of ukraine. thousands of people have turned out to major
3:26 am
cities to rally against the russian assault. so the giga has more now from london side by side holding hands a show of solidarity in munich, a human chain across the city, protesting against russia's invasion of ukraine near by the russian consulate. its entrance vandalized with red paint, a show of anger against vladimir putin. the man who protest her say must face justice for his actions. are greek for after reading. i despise war, any kind of war, and i really want to set an example. i think peter has been courted for far too long for 20 years. the west has been trying to keep him quiet so that he doesn't get upset. and that simply has to stop now. ah, in rome the mood may have been more festive. but the message to put in just as critical, italy may have been one of russia's closest allies in europe, with many politicians having previously boasted of strong ties. now,
3:27 am
many are seeking to distance themselves across europe. cities that have welcome to russian money are having to reflect on the effect that it had on their businesses and politics. oh, among them london, a major beneficiary of rush in cash as the end of the soviet union. but that has not calmed any criticism of putin or his allies. here. the more missiles raining down on ukraine, the more solidarity people here are showing towards ukrainians. more people, hey, want us for the west to step up and take decisive action against hootin and his assault on ukraine. there's going to be a genocide. why do we wait? they will go in. but only after this genocide, how outrageous we need to do it now. oh, in the hague, home of the international criminal court, many called for an end to the invasion and blamed putin himself not russians for
3:28 am
the conflict. all the while ukraine continues to come under attack, yet many europeans are determined to signal less support for the country and to show ukrainians. they are not alone. sonya yeah, go out a 0 london. the russian offensive in ukraine could become a stumbling block in efforts to restore the 2015 iran nuclear deal russian foreign minister. so gay lover of is demanding a guarantee that sanctions imposed on russia won't affect his trade with iran. law . rob says under the deal, russia and china were allowed to help her on with civilian nuclear programs, and he says, russian investments should not be obstructed. good, our lunch. irish, you in the sung, see the avalanche of aggressive sanctions that started to erupt from the west and hasn't finished yet in my understanding requires reflection 1st of all, by the lawyers. and we want to receive a very precise response. guarantees that these sanctions won't,
3:29 am
by any means affect our mode of trade, economic and investment corporation with a ran on their nuclear program. what that is, we've requested the american colleagues as they rule here, to give us written guarantees, at least at the level of the secretary of state. so that the current process launched by the united states will not by any means affect our rights for a free and full fledged trade or you're economic, military and investment cooperation with iran will automatically added a james base is in vienna. and he says that loves comment, so wiring diplomats involved in the negotiations talk should be going all now for 11 months, the idea to re establish the ra nuclear deal. it was president trump that pulled out of it in 2016. he put tough sanctions on iran. iran then responded by pushing ahead with a nuclear program, getting much more sophisticated centrifuges and increasing greatly that knowledge
3:30 am
of how potentially to build a nuclear bomb. but in recent weeks, there has been progress. the talks have been continuing here in the last few days. they've gone on late into the night. the european envoys left vienna in the last 24 hours to go and consult with their capitals, with many believing a deal was very close. and that's why the comments of the russian foreign minister are worrying for all involved in this process. he's now asking for guarantees that the sanctions have been put on russia are not going to affect rushes, trade, and relations with iran. it's a real spanner in the works at the 11th hour in these negotiations. ah. so this is on 0, these are the top stories and ukrainian president vladimir zalinski is urging his people to continue the fight as russia's invasion of ukraine enters its temp. they
