charge. but the us, as the move raises serious concerns for the entire nato alliance and needs consultation, cronin officials pleaded with western governments to provide warplanes to fight against state russian invasion. mike, hannah, following those developments from washington. there were hours of confusion here in washington among members of the biden administration when poland made that announcement that it was going to send its fight a crop to a u. s. space in ramstein and the u. s. was then going to move them into the ukranian theatre of combat. well, that was poland, expressing its willingness to do so. the administration members making very clear that they had not discussed this matter with poland. and it took me into early evening when the spokesman for the pentagon, brian, kirby issued a written statement at denying that this was going to happen saying in fact, it was a move that was completely untenable. now to put this into a context in recent days, the secretary of state antony blinking,

made several references to discussions with poland about back filling polish croft with u. s. crop. should poland, move the aircraft into ukraine, but that's where the conversation was centered on. there was no discussion that would appear about this type of deal that poland expressed a willingness to indulge in, to move its plains to a u. s. air force base. and us then moves out of planes and to ukraine war areas. so certainly it was a confusing few hours, but very clearly now the us administration has made absolutely adamantly clear that this is simply a tenable, it's not a deal that would be on the table now. so many people are trying to leave ukraine, some foreign fighters at the polish border, i heading back into the country. this is after the governor in keys established an international lesion for those coming from a broad thing that's robbie has spoken to some of them as people

highly experienced soldiers are sent to the front line. less experienced recruits are kept back to help territorial defense units and treat the wounded. j says he trusts ukraine will let him go home if he has family and is unafraid. as he commits himself to a war that could go on for years. zane basra of the old jazeera at the ukraine border in eastern poland, fighting north of kiva, intensifying as russian forces pushed towards that city. that boston traveled to the capital. when she reports huge traffic jams, it's growing. number of residents try to get out while traveling to key a few. see this whole continuous stream of refugees leaving the capital going the opposite direction. there is a non stop row of cars, a huge traffic jam, basically from the whole of the west of ukraine to the capital right now, people trying to flee the violence, the bombing to continuous shelling here in the capital also around the capital. but

the people are not going very far and not very fast because they're really simply stuck. the infrastructure doesn't let them flee quickly enough. so people are really spending denied in cars next to fuel stations. the fuel stations have enormous long queues as well because people are viewing for fuel. that is very hard to get. there's not enough fuel in these battle stations odessa, quite some chaos. a lot of those checkpoints, people are very nervous, the security services are very nervous that there might be advance forces that might be what they call sabbath to us. russians who are ready here who might commit attacks and when you get to the capital, the 1st thing that you notice is this eerie silence. people have left, it's a city of normally $4000000.00 people, but it's equally quiet. the only thing we hear here is church bells ringing. our

european yup, st. louis de king of st. opinions been constantly shell planes, bombing russian soldiers audits at home. there's no electricity, light, no heating, and the temperatures going down. we had to go to machine it my does, if we hadn't, i hadn't, and russia so much. i hope the war will be over soon. one of the can shoot. people are all say, fleeing sue, me, east of cave, off to russia, and ukraine agreed on a temporary cease fire in the area. days of russian shelling have flattened parts of the city. this is what is left after an overnight attack. killed more than 20 people, including children in their homes. moscow is offered once again to evacuate people from a number of other cities, but only if they go to russia or belarus for ukraine's president. it is a proposition steeped in cynicism, but they ensure that a small corridor to the occupied territory is open for a few dozen people. not so much to russia, but to the propagandist directly to the television cameras. so they can say this is

who saves people. just cynicism just propaganda. nothing more. rushes military says this video shows is tanks. ne keith. when the city people are scared, daily life has moved underground. intense times, the vulnerable, often suffered almost every day. more children arrive at this orphanage. different parts of ukraine. svetlana tells me the invasion, adds another painful layer to already difficult childhood on the pickup special. the 1st group that arrived her is from less a chance. there were many very young kids. among them they were traumatized. anxious when the siren sounded. they would get really scars. lister was in the children have been brought here to escape the russian shelling and the fighting. but some of them were already victims of war with these children of from eastern ukraine where a war against russian back separatist started 8 years ago. young lives that have

president brought him his zalinski to cut off moscow's energy expo exports out white house course wanted. kimberly, how could reports from washington? it's a major escalation of us economic sanctions against russia for its invasion of ukraine . on tuesday, u. s. president joe biden went after president vladimir putin's most lucrative industry. we're banning all in ports of russian oil and gas in energy and means russian oil no longer be accessible us porch to the american people will deal another powerful blow to put information. the decision by president biden to bad russian energy imports into the united states, follows pressure by the u. s. congress, and pleased by ukrainian president vladimir zalinski biden acknowledged. the latest sanctions could cause a spike in us gas praises consumers are already paying on average more than $4.00

a gallon up from $2.77 just a year ago, due to high inflation. as the economy recovers from, the coven pandemic says, proven, began as military build of ukrainian borders, just since then. the price of the gas, the pump, an american up to $0.75. and with this action is going to go up further. the white house is directing the release of some of the us strategic petroleum reserves to contain prices and compensate for loss supply. but the white house maintains high gas prices might also encourage you as consumers to switch to green energy and electric vehicles. but this analyst says the united states is nowhere near ready. the biggest user of oil in any countries, transportation and transportation depends on having things like electric vehicles and hybrids vehicles. those vehicles represent

a relatively small part of the fleet. the fleet turns over slowly. so we're really kind of working by year. that's why these latest u. s. economic sanctions against russia may be symbolic, designed to hurt putin financially. but mostly politically, president biden is sending his vice president carmella harris to poland and romania this week to reinforce support for ukraine, but also to reassure nervous allies. fearful that russia could turn its aggression on them. next. kimberly hell kit al jazeera, the white house funnel at on ukraine, the saw the humans human rights office says it's recorded more than 400 civilian deaths and 800 injuries since the war and ukraine began. but of course, it believes the actual figures are much higher. most of the civilian casualties often as strikes and explosive weapons used by russian forces with y, their effects including heavy artillery, multiple launch bucket systems. as

a result, hundreds of residential buildings in many cities in treating chaney of car keys, have san mateo on campus, housing, damage destroyed. there is other news and we want to look at this particularly south korea, where voters are going to the polls to choose their next president. marine j ins term is coming to an end at a time when the country is facing a housing crisis. bleak job opportunities an increase in missile testing as well from neighboring north korea. rob mcbride in sol as across stance. how's things going? i think. what is it about 6 hours the polls have been open now? that's why the polls have been open for a number of hours or so far and they are stay open until 6 p. m. local time. interestingly, they then stay open for an extra hour and a half to give chance a for covert patience to vote. and also for people who've been in isolation, let me just stand back and give you a look at what's happening at this one,

a polling station. it's the usual sanitizing measures we have become accustomed to . our temperature checks are turning up at another desk where you get your pair of plastic gloves, then proceed through for identity checks. and before you actually get a chance to vote when, when it comes to the voting, this has turned into what we often see here in south career, a to horse race between a liberal candidate, lee jame young. he's from the ruling democratic party and a conservative rival in the, at the form of johnson y'all. he is from the people per party. now both of these candidates had been running neck and neck. it promises to be one of the closest elections we've seen for a long time. and what we also know is that this is going to be a very, very high turn out in 2 days of early voting. we saw a record, 3rd or more of the electro. that's the come out already and cast their vote. and we are expecting by the end of this process that maybe 80 percent plus of the

electorate will of voted, which by any democratic standards is extremely high. and that's in spite of both candidates, if you like, a being slightly flawed, they both come into this or with certain baggage, certain scandals attached to their and names. there's been an awful lot of mud slinging and yet people are still coming out in large numbers to vote, and probably driven more by the issues rather than by the names on the ballot. so tell us about those issues. i mentioned them briefly at the top one. are you going to little more detail? that's right, to me here in south korea, a lot of a people are being driven by a domestic concerns about the state of the economy. the state of the society, especially younger voters, and there are a lot of 1st time young voters this time around. so it is things like wealth inequality and just the problems in trying to be able to afford your own home. here in south korea with the housing market. now this plays against the incumbents that

liberal party because they have been in power for 5 years. these problems are still exist, but the liberal candidate lee is pointing to the fact that he is promising stimulus packages. and also the fact that a lot of this was due to the pandemic and the incumbent liberals have done by all stand many, most standards pretty well when it comes to handling at that pandemic. the conservative candidate yoon is pointing to the fact that he is more of a populist, it's time for a change. he is as a former prosecutor as something of a graft buster against corruption, which is also a big issue here. but more importantly, perhaps he's appealing to the older voters because he's gonna take a lot tougher stand with north career, which he says has been a failing of the liberals. that after several years of engagement with the north, there is nothing to show for that. and it is time to get a lot tougher with north korea, which really does strike a chord with some of the old of oh, to sir k. thank you. rob mcbride,

keeping an eye on south korea's elections on the peruse. prime minister is under pressure to make changes to his cabinet before its even been formerly approved of many politicians under investigation, its support as far from guaranteed as mariana sanchez reports from lina i. it's the 4th cabinet in 7 months. the government awaits congressional approval on tuesday, but it won't be easy. some lawmakers say they will not give the new ministers a vote of confidence unless prime minister anyway, taurus makes changes starting with firing the new health minister at an angle doughty, a doctor accused of corruption and lack of experience that has doctors and nurses demanding his resignation. and some of precedent bedrock, a theater ministers, and closer circle of advisors are been investigated for corruption, big old we are a law isla. given the accumulation of allegations for the moral health of the republic, the president should come to congress to answer our questions about all this. why

castiel himself has been investigated since january for corruption and illegal influence the pressing and denies any wrong doing? no, no. they lie in the media saying he's already going to resign. he's corrupt, i'm not going to run away because a tiny group of people wants to disregard the will of the people who put me in office today. i know that i let it hours before tuesday session, his allies had been unable to secure enough votes for the new cabinet. i am afraid that peruvian politics rather than seeking consensus, is dominated by short term calculations linked to immediate interests. o, any say the opposition's most pressing interest now is paving the way for a new ball game. whether congress, a prison cabinet or not critic say the real end game for opposition lawmakers is to oust president cathy you a motion to unseat the precedent. this in the works, it's the 2nd time political force tried to impeach castiel,

but analysts say they still don't have enough boats to begin the process of get a z u. that doesn't mean this is the end. we will surely see discussions on how to eventually push for the president's removal from office. a recent opinion, paul suggests more than 60 percent, disapprove of castillo, and 77 percent disapprove of congress. from crisis to crisis, the spiraling political chaos has left the country with 5 precedence. in 6 years, nearly 30 ministers were placed since last august. disenchanted with produced political class for most peruvians, tuesday's vote may not make much of a difference by diana sanchez. i'll just see that lima biddle. ah, so these are the latest updates are out of ukraine.
