both sides accused each other of breaking the terms of the agreement. charles traffic is close to the ukrainian city of zap alicia, another failed attempt to getting potentially hundreds of thousands of trapped civilians out of the besieged city of mariel. we've been speaking to some civilians inside the city who say that there is very little electricity across the city, very little water. we seeing pictures of people scrambling into what we understand all semi destroyed supermarkets and shopping malls. trying to gather as much food and materials as best they can protect themselves and keep themselves warm and fade as we understand it. under the thousands, although all living in basements living underneath their buildings. we've also spoken to ukrainian soldiers in the city. they sang, they accusing the russians of starting to shell,

whilst the attempts out to get people on buses and had to had started. simon, one of accusations being made by the wash in back separatists, the spokes person for the self to play. doh next people's republic militia saying that sam, the ukrainians, had started shelling 1st. now we were south of zap parisha most of the day in towns and villages along that route. we saw a lot more military along that route that we saw yesterday. craner soldiers, b austin and take it in on bussey's, put into positions that french is being dug a lot more common personnel carriers tanks and anti aircraft weapons. and it was around about the time that we were getting news that the the attempt to get civilians out of mary elbow had failed. that there was an old mighty upsurge in shelling in that area. one village that we went to villages there told us that the

neighboring village had been occupied by russian forces the night before. they saying that the russians just walked into this village on opposed. so very worrying situation as a say in the besieged city of mary opal, hundreds of thousands of people, yet again, going to bed very afraid to night. civilians were also being evacuated from vol navarro to the village of bu gus, which is under control of russian back forces from the next. it's now just a few kilometers from the latest. frontline bernard smith is there and filed this report for the cease fire was still in effect. will gas had only been secured in the last few hours and it still feels very much like an active battlefield. certainly on the way in here, we saw very close by to was our tillery shells continuing to be fired. but for the meanwhile, it is quiet here. humanitarian aid is being given out to the local residence

of the gas. and this will be the village where refugees, if they want to come from vulnerable her will comments a few kilometers down the road. there is this cease fire that is supposed to be in place at the moment. we have heard some shelling but we're told that if the refugees want to come here, this is one of the options they can come to or they can go separately in to russia . but it is an extremely dynamic situation. there is certainly continued shelling and it remains a very dangerous area. and you can here are hillary, that's really not far away at all. so a very tense situation really. and if there is a c, sorry to a very,

very tenuous, one, kurney authorities are reportedly having trouble reaching stafford to different nuclear plants and a radiation facility such of fighting broke out in zip alicia on friday. the facility is now under russian control. according to the u. n's, nuclear energy body access to mobile networks and the internet have reported the been cut to the plant. the i. e. a says is extremely concerned. communications in stafford a radiation plant in money. a poll have also been lost. thousands of people have been forced to abandon their homes, after airstrikes and the outskirts of ukraine's capital keep a russian and ukrainian forces of battling for control of hostile airport or am. and val has the details residential buildings on fire in hostem at northwest of give and me a by in the town of it been dramatic scenes and heavy shelling by the russian army civilians trying to help the wounded in the absence of medical workers. there was

also heavy damage here at the g, tommy tack, plant, and destruction in the cities of kirsten and offer. in this you tell me region in northern ukraine according to state media. in his latest statement, president valadez zelinski said, dash, and shelling has destroyed the average shift cup vin. it's your international airport. he warned. russia is preparing to bomb the store itself. eastern port city of odessa, a city has more than a 1000000 people, including bulgarian and jewish minorities on this, or this. they are planning to bombard odessa. the russians always used to come to a dis, a and they felt only warmth, only sincerity in odessa. and now bombs are coming against odessa, artillery, marseilles, this is going to be a war crime, a historic crime would. but the russian army is talking only about military targets . it says it has destroyed $2230.00 military facilities in ukraine during what it

calls a special operation. offensive continues to stoke popular anger in ukraine, especially in the southeast region. there was hope thousands could escape from the deceased city of mario upon in the southeast. but the evacuation was called off after both sides claimed cease fire violations. many other ukrainians have escaped russian bombardment for neighboring countries. you and hcr says the number of refugees has now passed 1500000, making it the largest exit the yard since world war 201 or 0. why? since that he was told me, has also been hit by heavy shelling. more than a dozen buildings, some of them residential, have been destroyed in recent days, step vast and has more from just don't me or well, this is just an, a very ordinary residential area in the told me and this is how an s strike or the

impact of an s, right. looks like a russian air strike was done here on friday, a missile hit this area. this house, there was a young woman, a 28 years old. she died here. we just spoke to her father in that house over there . you see some people on the roof, 3 children got severely injured, ended up in hospital, the youngest was 3 years old. this is a pure residential area. it's not very far from an air base or military base. i have to say the military base is like hundreds of me to that way and it's very hard for these residents to understand. what was actually the purpose of this strike was it's really the military base or was it was this the target? so there's a lot of anger here in this area because this is a 3rd residential area that i've seen struck here. and she told me since i've arrived here, there was another one over there also in the vicinity of the military base,

but not quite there. also residential area, lots of shops destroyed. and people are here just picking through the rubble. they're still like, completely in shock. lots of emotions, heartbreaking stories, people really completely don't understand why this area was hit. people have nowhere to go. they say, because this is an unsafe area, lots of people have left, they don't know where to go. and it's just picking up the pieces trying to find something that is still valuable, that they can that, that they can keep. but the anger here is unbelievable that people are really defiant. people are still here. say we're not going anywhere. and if the russians come, we will fight them personally. meanwhile, russia and ukraine to hold more talks in the bell russian border on monday. joan, how's john in his life now from live and all of this happening against a backdrop, of course of ongoing diploma said to just talk us through because it's been a busy sort of 24 hours or so.

of diplomacy? yes. a number of international leaders. so the trying their hand at diplomacy with food and we've heard about phone calls taking place between the french president emanuel macaroni, mr. newton over the weekend, spending an hour and 45 minutes on the phone and they're forced telephone contacts since the invasion began, no verifiable. sign of progress coming out of those talks. the israeli prime minister enough tony bennett, helped on a plane secretly on saturday and flew to moscow to spend 3 hours with president putin in the kremlin before heading off to berlin to talk to the german government . and we've heard that both mr. macros and mr. bennett have had follow up calls late this afternoon with mister putin as well. again, no details coming out of that. the one contact that has produced anything in the

way of details whose between mister putin and wretched type do. i'm the president of course, of turkey, turkey. she has a border in the black sea with both russia and ukraine. it has good relations with both russia and ukraine. it has offered to mediate talks and has made clear that it believes the invasion is unacceptable. results of those talks coming out of mr. jones office suggesting that he told putin to declare a ceasefire to open humanitarian corridors and sign peace agreements. well, the message coming out of the kremlin says that mister putin told mister the one that fighting would only end once the ukrainians laid down their arms. and that all of russia's demands were met. that, of course, is full surrender, giving up on any hope of joining nato neutrality. in other words, recognizing near as part of russia after its annexation in 2014, and recognizing the independence of those eastern breakaway regions. and letting me

put in saying that he hopes that given the changing situation on the ground with his forces doing very well to meet their objectives. he hopes that negotiators do to meet on monday. we'll have a more constructive approach. jonah, thank you very much, john hobbling, he's up to date from the live. more than $200.00 children have moved from an orphanage and se ukraine after russian troops attack to nearby nuclear power station there in the town, it was up ratio. some of the children said to be terrified, but constant air raid sirens often in directors traveling by train with them to bring them to safety in neighboring poland. what do you know what a shipping you put in a saying that he is doing something here, but he is simply killing people, simply killing people. i don't understand why the russian people cannot believe that we are being bombarded, that we and our children are being killed. it is very hard. i'm sorry. we don't want to leave ukraine. we love it is so hard. but unfortunately,

we must leave. we really want to come back. correspondence in basra is following the situation at a border crossing between ukraine and poland. you spoke to philip grande's, the united nations high commissioner for refugees. it's very difficult to even listen to their stories. days and days of travel in the cold from their bomb cities to seek safety here in poland, i saw the same 2 days ago in moldova, in romania it's all over, but paul, on this is taking the brunt of this enormous avalanche of people. 1.5000000, as you said, just today we reach this terrible figure and the what we or so here is that hundreds of thousands are on the move. so, and this is the prediction of the border guards here, who by the way, are doing a very good job. and they predict that the flow will increase not decrease in the

next few days, and perhaps beyond. now as you said, 1500000 people have already crossed. it hasn't even been 2 weeks. your prediction of 4000000 you were saying earlier might be too small in estimation. and it is a country of more than $40000000.00 people, a country that is currently under siege. what are your long term predictions for what might happen, or how much worse do you think it's going to get? is there any way to plan for it? it really depends on the conflict. if bombs continue to rain on cities, people will leave the yesterday or the day before i can't even remember in moldova . many people told me that they were leaving odessa don't dare say, not under attack because the sirens started the a resounding and they're so afraid that they leave. so it really depends on that. that's why it's so important. yes, there's

a lot of talk about humanitarian corridors that's very important. we are may organization like others are in ukraine, will participate in any such operation to bring any relief to anybody who is trapped in the cities. but we need more than that, we need is his far we need is his sation of hostilities your secretary of state and he blinked ins placed his support to the people of moldova, as it faces a surge of people fleeing ukraine. as president says, the country needs help from the international community to cater for the 250000 refugees who arrived so far. so high ranch reports a show of solidarity is moldova calls for international support. you are secretary of state's is visiting one of your ex poorest and smallest countries that share a buddha with ukraine in the 30 years since moldova, in the united states began to provide relations. we've never faced a moment as urgent and as challenging as the one that we face today. russia's unprovoked,

unwarranted war on ukraine has kicked off. you monitoring crisis that is already having of as the fact across the region, including here in the republic, moldova, moldova didn't choose to be involved, but these are the implications of a war on its doorstep. nearly a quarter of a 1000000 people have crossed its water from ukraine in just 10 days. the 2nd largest number of refugees off the poland, moldova warns its fast running out of options to keep up with the influx, which is expected to rise in the coming days. like me, it was only 3 joint and consistent efforts from all the partners we can help you crane. first of all, we need rapid assistance and involvement with the international community to stop the battle and restore the pace the international monetary fund is considering. moldova is request to make changes to its existing. i messed supported programs to help the refugees bought. moldova concerns, don't stop there. it faces

a security threat on its eastern border, russian back separatists control, the region of trans nice via the dispute territory, has its own government currency and around 6000 paratroopers since it for 2 bits of civil war with moldova in 1992 spots. it isn't recognized internationally and russia has repeatedly ignored cause to remove around $1500.00 of its troops, who've been stationed there ever since. the area also has, was his thought to be one of the biggest ammunition depots in eastern europe. that is a fundamental disagreement with been moved over and, and trust me and leadership. and this is the path, the development path that they want to show more over all the declared that it's wanted to integrate economically with europe. and that's why i was thinking membership for the tea and union and trying to me was seeking alignment with russia. alignments, made clear on says day when mold over in georgia,

followed ukraine sit steps and applied to join the european union. more processed in the, making it for years that fast track in just a matter of days. so to hide it, al jazeera country bank is also saying the u. s. may send plains to poland to back fill warsaw as numbers. if the polish government sent some of its own claims to help ukraine, we are. we're looking actively now. at the question of aeroplanes, the poland may provide to, to ukraine, and looking at how we might be able to backfill should we'll decide to produce those. but 2 of those of supply, those plants can speak to a timeline, but i can just tell you we're looking at it very, very actively. there are some buzzards of united nations has repeated that the u. s . will not help to establish a no fly zone over ukraine and spend a main request of ukrainian president vladimir zalinski,

who says it was failure to impose a no fly zone means more civilians will die. but linda thomas greenfield says it could make the conflict worse. president biden has been very, very clear that american troops will not be put on the ground are in the ear to escalate this war and make this an american war against against the russians. but we've also been very clear that we will support ukraine in every other way possible. we have provided them over a $1000000000.00 in support over the course of the past few days, billions prior to that, we're providing them training. we're working with our allies and the frontline countries border countries to support their efforts as well. how does your casters live 1st in washington d c? so heidi is clearly still a firm. no. as far as the u. s. is concerned in any sort of possible. no fly zones,

but discussion. so going on about other u. s. military aid. that's right. the white house wants congress to very quickly pass up to 10 dollars, 10000000000 dollars in new age toward ukraine. and the majority of that, between 5 to 8000000000 has been set aside from military aid. we know that is something that specifically ukraine's president requested when he had that zoom call with members of congress yesterday. and is speaking on that u. s. news cast this morning, the message from many senators and a congress people in response to that phone call. they to that zoom call. they said that they understood why zalinski would be asking for this no fly zone. and that in fact, they would probably be doing the same if they were in his position. however, one after another, democrats, republicans, the white house, you name it, they have all confirmed firmly that they are opposed to getting the us involved in

establishing a no fly zone. and i'm just seeing that there's so discussing a possible bond in russian oil imports. no, i understand the percentage isn't that significant, but we're still sitting. i think prices are on the pumps are about $4.00 at the moment in the us. right. and my understanding is that's only the 2nd time in history that, that has happened here in the u. s, with prices at the pump that high. but despite that, the other theme with those congress people who took to the airways today, they were all supportive of a potential ban on russian oil imports. you're right, it doesn't make up a lot of the us. total fuel use about 8 percent comes from russia and late is likely to drive up prices at the palm for consumers. at least for the short term. us officials are hopeful of that if the step is taken that more u. s. producing wells can be reactivated, et cetera,

to make up for that last portion that would be coming from russia. but you're certainly seen a theme of more voices coming out of the woodwork. supporting a possible ban. we know that when americans are old, they as a majority also support cane a little bit more at the gas pumps. in order to inflict this economic sanction against russia, it's called for the white house is considering doing that very thing. and underneath lincoln, the u. s. secretary of state also said today that he is an act of talks with european allies about perhaps a transit atlantic ban on russian imports. which if imposed certainly would be very painful for the russian economy. and how did you catch to bring us up to date from washington? d. c. heidi, thank you. or russia one countries against hosting ukrainian military aircraft. the defense ministry says they've been regarded as being involved in the conflict. mrs

. dim, we know for sure a but she korean combat aircraft that previously flew to romania and at the border countries, we draw attention to the fact that the use of the airport network of these countries as hubs for ukrainian military aviation with the subsequent use against there is an armed forces can be considered the involvement of these countries in the armed conflict. hope frances is called the violence in ukraine. a war rejecting russia's description of the conflict as a special operation of the service and vatican city. the leader of the roman catholic church, told worshippers he sent to cardinals to ukraine to work towards peace. won't have called for a return to negotiations and more humanitarian assistance for the region. your grey, now, squadron, or few me, the sandwich in the rivers of blood and tears are flowing in ukraine. this is not just a military operation, but a war which sells death, destruction and misery. the number of victims is increasing as are the people flee,

especially mothers and children in that martyred country, the need for humanitarian assistance is growing by the hour. see them, i make a heartfelt appeal for humanitarian corridors to be genuinely secured. and for it to be guaranteed and facilitated access to the besieged areas. to provide vital relief to our brothers and sisters pressed by bombs and fear. the repairs for peace in ukraine's capital cave, as anger grows against the russian invasion charge are members to say they will continue to hold services in the city as long as possible. or also concerns. members of the ukrainian orthodox church could face persecution under russian occupation. the church broke away from jurisdiction of the russian orthodox church, 13 years ago. 275 russian orthodox clergy around the world of side. an open latter criticizing rushes war in ukraine. and that breaks with church leadership in moscow for more than the sum joined by a kaji league. she's a senior policy fellow at the european council on foreign relations, and she's

a researcher on russia, eastern europe, and the baltic region. she's joining us from talon in estonia. very good to have you with us, ma'am, and i'll just here to thank you very much indeed. why would the clergy be concerned about persecution? should the ukraine fall to the russians? well, president clinton has promised to punish everyone who has committed crimes. so to say in russia, in is, are in your crave, but he's probably, he's a way of indicate think that he will punish every one who has been instrumental in making ukraine closer to a west and by the own. most certainly will also involve the clergy of ukrainian or the catholic church. they called her independent their so called old, careful of state as in 2019. and so now they are so subordinate to constantinople, patriarch, it. but her is also an orthodox church in ukraine, but

a subordinate to moscow patriarchy, however, even they do not approve of o football and priests from that church. the moscow church. so to say, have also said that they have stopped mentioning grandma skill patriarch in bad prayers. so it looks like whatever moscow says are both ukrainian churches of her. emily opposed to moscow was wall. and they have always been very close to the society in the crate on like the russian orthodox church that has always been alive, love estate, and much less with the society. i saw reports in the new york times sydney saying they're reporting that last week in western ukraine. villagers, furious about the russian invasion, ejected a russian orthodox priest from his church, and our we have no way of validating that. obviously this is from the, the new york times, but what is the risk? do you think that we are going to, you may see incidence like that happening as the tensions continue to grow within

ukraine? hard to comment on, on bad incident, but a past experience tells me that all your crane and churches actually are opposed to a boy. if you look what happened in 2014 turning, but my don uprising been all ukraine and religious leaders actually opposed violence and, and, and try to bring gone peace but involved both churches or for looks, churches are non, are for looks christian branches by the present denial crane and also jewish leaders as so ukraine, as far as i know i have visited repeatedly, is very tolerant society and i, i have never met any, the friendly churches, animosity there, think sauce,

lot somewhat different with moscow church. but as i say, has always been alive with the state. i think miss station is hard for them as well because ukrainian orthodox congregations have been beka and rose in russia. and i guess patriarch to rail must be worried, but he's re losing hearts and minds in ukraine. however, at this time he has chosen to cite clearly with the state on like in 2014, when he was not present, that the ceremony were putin announced. annexation of crimea, you could see he wanted to distance himself because he understood that repellent antagonize his people in india pray. but little else reform for his pasta thought, forgive me for interrupting you. let me just ask you one very final question. unfortunately, read, i'm good off to ask you to be short because we don't have a lot of time. but given the circumstances we're finding in ukraine, how much do you think that this is likely to shape the future of the eastern

orthodox church? both in russia and ukraine. it's could i 10 well in matching that it will lead for the deep and the splits between ukrainian and brushing che, cheese, and that will definitely be a blow to to the moscow church and increase the attention so constant that open cadillac. we appreciate you being with us, ma'am, and i'll just here to thank you very much. indeed for your time. still had an ard, is it a show of solidarity across the world as thousands call for an end to russia's invasion of ukraine and safely back? enjoy land after weeks at sea will tell you why the journey might not be over. for more than a 100 rock india refugees. and in sports, peter is going to be here with actually from the fiercest rivalry and cricket taking center stage at the women's world cup. ah

and i will not settle down yet. we got yet another brewing store in easton bottle mediterranean. the last one is still visible as a wind, a few like sandstone, really good part of northern saudi bits, q 8, and even the lower ground in iran. but we're talking range out and snow showers in the higher ground. the same is true in turkey and the heads across to afghanistan. sas of always look at the wind direction. it's more in a suddenly breeze. now that's giving quite warm weather for the time of year in baghdad. for example, the average is about about $21.00. this time, yes, so it up to about 10 degrees higher than that or when say, unfortunate, that means usually you bring your subtly with that it's a dusty one quite likely on wednesday. now as i said, we've got things spreading across iran to what afghans and significance though seems likely during tuesday, maybe doesn't cobble, but not far away from cobble and low levels. it will be rein. a zip,

said the sas. i'm still looking for big chairs and can yet they don't, and yet they're in tanzania and then across further west in and go, in fact, that seasonal rate in and go run. it stretches down through western botswana, the acrobat delta, the spit here where you see the wildlife blue as the rains start to fall on the delta floods. and that's the forecast for monday is stretching all way down to the south coast of africa. ah, discover a world of difference determination. i'm coming down with me. we are with freedom, with chop soldiers on the 16th people with corruption, with compassion, al jazeera, whoops, a selection of the best films from across our network of channels. the

latest news as it breaks, authorities tell us the brutal violence like this one in the 100 capital, or just the tip of the iceberg in a far more complex security situation with detailed coverage. this coastal vintage in white is one of the worst areas here in the province of ball, from around the world. things seem very normal in the city. people are still going to work or to school the restaurant i ah ah, ah, you're watching old, is it a reminder or top stories? this are evacuation plans have been cancelled in the besieged ukrainian city of

mario paul and escape corridor for civilians has been abandoned for a 2nd time. after both sides accused each other of violating a temporary cease fire. several ukrainian cities continued to come under fire. the western city of stormy it has suffered heavy shelling from russian airstrikes, schools, hospitals, and homes are be leveled in the attacks. ukrainian president vladimir zelinski claims russian forces are preparing to shelters. city of odessa, the black sea port is home to 1000000 people added some major tourism and trade hub . frank leverage is a senior lecturer and military capabilities and strategy at the university of portsmouth is also a former military officer who served in the balkans, iraq and afghanistan. he says the russian campaign in ukraine and appears to be lacking in preparation and planning. well, i think most analysts, people like myself take the view that the ukrainians are coming out to prove we

expected them to be effective. they've been ready for this for years. they've been trained by western forces and if you look away. busy their regular forces look the way they present themselves. they present themselves very much like nato forces of british american, french, or german troops, professional, well equipped and so forth. what's really shocking is the way the russian forces have. essentially, i use this word hesitatingly collapse over the last 10 days or so much warranted. combat arms operations force learned so much from complex or the last few years. it's pretty to be a bit of a paper tiger at the moment. but nonetheless, that paper tigers, i'm going to tell you something that's really deadly for the people of, of you. it's a failure of planning, of preparation, logistics. it's very clear that those troops from see this from capture p, o w accounts. we see this from fairly objective reports, which is ready for what's going to happen. they will not read properly prepared,

their logistics, which is the, which is the most important element of military operations. professionals taught logistics, images, tactics. the russians have failed another just and they failed largely, i think because they overestimated their own capabilities and underestimated the ukrainians, and particularly with respect to their own capabilities. they fail to deal with the trivia with what you are. i'm any people might, regardless trivia, fueling food, general supplies, what routes you're going to take? how are you going to space your vehicles? how are you going to actual on your how you can organize and arrange your time. and this all speaks to a real lack of preparation and a real lack of planning. and that's the most difficult part of the military operations getting things right early, getting things right. well, in time for your operations, it's very clear the russians haven't done many ukrainians are joining local defense units to protect their country from russian forces. others,

it is hotter of the hamid visited a village in the nipple region and eastern ukraine and spoke to one of those units under rows of eastern ukraine, their dose taking their children to safety. an endless slug of cars trying to reach to close his border. it will take days in their dose, staying behind to defend their country. like these men, we met near the village of men. they know the forest well. they usually go hunting here, but now it's time to dig trenches. phillips and bags and build bunkers in case the russian soldiers come their way. ah, they're part of the locally form territorial defense units. they include season men like any k, not his real name, who 1st joined in 2016 to fight the pro russian separatists in the east of the country, yet asenia for so the pipe of that you're asking about our mood. if we really to

defend ourselves after this treacherous invasion of ukraine, women, children, and the ugly suffering homes are bombed at night. of course, the army is very angry about that. if we didn't provoke and we didn't want the school, they came to us and we are ready to answer. he hopes that the russians could be slowed down, that these handmaid spikes, similar positions are being built a bit all over the need for a region and has become even more urgent now to have them completed. because the region has become the 1st stop for those fleeing the russian advance from either the south or the north east of the country to honda. at the village, ludmilla is busy cooking 200 meals and the menu to day rest sonic a hearty soup that will be put in jars and taken to the checkpoints, and trenches where her husband is also on duty. for some of these women, this war is hitting close to home. acela's son in law, is in the regular army on

a front line. she can't reveal which in the room did that. my daughter is keeping busy like me, just to not go crazy. it's our country, we have to protect it. we will leave by thought. what can i do? we all in the same boat. and what can i see about the soldiers who came to our country to kill us and pretend they didn't know that they have been here for more than 7 days. and i still don't my, back in the forest, the territorial defense gets ready for the cold night ahead. the russians are still far away. but this is a war of miss sales and rockets that are devastating cities and villages. and here, there are no signs of modern weaponry that could repel the onslaught the most ukrainians. the only safe way is to go west and get as far as possible. but up did her meet algebra in easton, ukraine. protests against russia's invasion of ukraine have been held in multiple

countries with calls for western powers to do more to broker a peaceful end to the violence. meanwhile, in russia, more than 3500 anti war demonstrators have been arrested in several cities on sunday. if barker has more from london with a crisis in ukraine, deepening on a daily basis, concerns are growing here in london and in other european capitals about the direction of travel, of this incredibly unpredictable war. as you can see, the campaign for nuclear disarmament is out in force of the placards calling for a stop to the war. i come from lithuania, i feel like nato is doing everything they can. i do not necessarily think they should send they troops to ukraine. i'd leave just yet. i hope we can help with an initial support. my me, i intelligence i'm from with it's terribly painful with crying every
