we look at how the u. s. is reaching out to venezuela. the russian strike has destroyed a maternity hospital in the besieged, ukrainian city of mario pope. no deaths have been reported yet, but survivors of it buried under the rubble. the attack a spot uproar is the 2 countries prepared for the highest level talks since the invasion began. 2 weeks ago, russia says ukraine was using the hospital to set up firing positions. the bulk of the games are accomplished. the the colossal block echoes across the city of mary awful. but this isn't a military target. it's a maternity ward and children's hospital where you are going to be

one of the other victim heavily pregnant women with serious injuries is stretching through a shattered holding the elderly, the young lady to the mama. this is the indifference of war. the, an explosion so powerful the crater will be to sleep. so hoarding, i says, give a hug when it gets to day, russian invaders committed a grave crime. said this official women and children were wounded. somebody was a war crime without any justification. he said, after days without supplies, heating or electricity ukrainians will or the calling mary awful, the nearest thing to hell on earth. now look at it. what are

they all the defining images of flattery may putin's war and there's a new urgency to the ukrainian leadership, desperate plea for more help. the bulk of, i'll just, they were satellite image company maxim has released before and after pictures of mario pope, they show extensive damage to homes, apartment buildings, grocery stores, and shopping centers. the image was taken before the attack on the hospital, ukraine's president says, the strike is further proof that a no fly zone must be imposed by nathan. for a hasty moment, voluntarily caught a new russian bombs, landed on a children's and maternity hospital. you, the building is destroyed, actually, we're still going through the rubble. what sort of threat did i posed to the russian federation? what's happening in ukraine is a genocide. people of europe, you can see what's happening again, you must put pressure on russia. so they stop this one, stress city, and the war one. after 14 days of war,

russian forces have made gains in the area shown on the map. in red se fruits agreed for the evacuation of civilians are only partially successful. residents of no dara evacuation to separation. people in money or polls expected to go there, but so far, evacuation attempts have failed. elsewhere. an escape route has been established between bone and crops. one in the car keep region residence from is you know, my expected to go to nas over and evacuation efforts have continued from su me to pal tava corridors. some towns around quito also been agreed in all ukraine's president says 35000 people were documented from cities on wednesday, june our report, some live in western ukraine. the day of relative calm along temporary avenues of escape. war came suddenly to the people of ukraine getting away from it is much harder from cities like sumi in the north

where residential buildings were struck over night. and from godaddy in the east. for many civilians still trapped in the ruins of their cities. there is no respite, nor for medical teams in hospitals where the injured arrived daily. how are you little volva? the doctor asks. i am fine, replies the boy, following surgery to remove a bullet from the base of his skull message as below proper. we have operated on 4 children, and sadly, one little girl has died in an arc of smaller towns close to the capital, key of the great escape continues on foot, much of it here, from places like butcher and her pin. just can't bear to let go. father stay behind the just in the town. oh, and from hoster mouth and my courage. where 13 people died on sunday,

queuing for bread was, there was in those of us just the 3 in the friends. these are very difficult times for your brain for hours. but if you then see it opin holds to defend us in the they've managed to get not to safety, so much as the comfort of the capital, the still standing symbol of what it once meant to live in a sovereign country. ah, and what they're determined, it will mean again as the keys symphony orchestra plays a concert for peace. not far away is too noble a symbol of something much darker nuclear catastrophe. now in russian hands, a power cut to the plants, defunct reactors, and radioactive waste facilities, signaled ukrainian alarm the u. n's. atomic agency though says there's no critical impact on safety. satellite images show the concentration of russian forces on the

outskirts of the capital. there can be little doubt that at some point, fortified and resupplied, they may try to overrun these outer suburbs. this is a moment as president zalinski described it, of maximum strength. yeah, i was of the job when nebulous and getting ready to counter it. of these training fighters who, what seems like only yesterday, we're film students or i t workers there old lives now on hold. russia may have superiority in terms of numbers, but ukraine has the reserves men between the ages of 18 and 60, who've been told they must remain in the country in case they're needed to fight. but 1st, they must be taught how me, max is 20, a musician and music journalist, whose band echoes british prog,

rock legends like meridian and king crimson. i was born here and i need to protect this. so i hope all of my friends will be safe and in there and after the aunt of the war, we will meet again. have a beer, just have fun and relax daniel over the cinema floss. if somebody takes a special kind of optimism to believe those carefree days will soon be back. jonah whole al jazeera invade. but mona, on the bombardment of cities and towns around key bound to 0 as a moral hunches in the city of vessels. for general belin to be the last name at oconee, a creve vessel, keyvi, south of chief. now we are here in the cities flying school. it was recently targeted by what has been described as ballistic missiles. and then they also have the civil aviation college and many houses in the area. 3 of the school students were killed and dozens were wounded. this school was recently emptied of all its

students, except a few of them stayed behind to guard the school. the, the city of vessel steve also has an important military airport, as well as one of the biggest air defense basis in the country. there are massive tanks for liquid fuel gas from refineries located in the center of the country. the city is a top target for russian forces that could explain why russian forces have recently bombarded the city and why they are planning along with reinforcements from better research, to put the city on to see in order to tighten the siege on the capital, keep from all 4 sides, especially the northeast, inside where fierce battles have been taking place and the western side. now it's a vessel keeps turner where many of those who haven't fled kiva, hiding on the streets in subway stations and tunnels. but there's no guarantee of safety. a step back to the looking for cover in

a city virtually under seat with attacks coming from the sky and on the ground, a population on the run leaving the street empty and airy barricades made of everything large enough to stop russian troops entering the countries capital city key if the main prize in flood him put into war. but not everybody has left the below the city people have settled in for the long haul. hiding from bombardments and shelly. daria, oh, blush shave. he has been sleeping in the subway with her 2 young son since the war started. her husband is fighting on the front line, our house sites as offline, some ratio the song. she's very nervous about it. and or she don't sound the safest shoulder. and in the darkness of the underground,

coming back. i feel safe. i haven't. no, i feel optimistic. why are you optimistic? we have any thought. why not? you don't feel the russian forces are approach to city right. oh, they approach and by the realty where the nearby, we find a family finally reunited after nerve wracking escape from your pin commuter down, near keith. right now, one of the front lines of this war could move. could you let this go with the printer? we were leaving on foot from on march 8th. we were leaving on foot. would you like the school? could you leave? we were leaving on foot to a subway station, which is nearly 2 and a half hours and walking. there was a lot of shelling and shooting. there was no lights. well no gas, no water and oven. despite their fear, the family wants to stay together. they have to take care of the 909 year old grandmother. she is too frail to move. i really trust the ukranian army. i probably

never believed in something so strong as i now believe in the army. but i'm very worried about my children. i can't tell you where i will go. if i take my children to safety, i will have to leave my parents and my husband behind my heart is breaking and i don't know what is the right thing to do. for now, she is staying with her mother and brother in fear, but at least they are to gather cleaning on to hope. the barricaded capitol will be able to hold off a full scale russian attack that could come at any time. stop fast and al jazeera keith professional breaker. and i'll just, when we come back, more coverage of ukraine, including we're in new york homes, america's largest ukranian community to hear how venomous managers leaders that come together calling also, head conservative unions took your wind south korea, neck and neck connection and taking the presidency for the margin of barely one percent format.

ah, ah, look forward to burritos, guys. with the sponsored play cut on airways. hello, got some lovely weather for japan over the next couple of days present spring sunshine. we've got some pleasance bring sunshine to into the cream peninsula. nice area of high pressure here, keeping things settled. and sally suddenly winds will pick temperatures up in beijing to around 20 celsius. once again, the temperature still around 10 degrees above the average for the time being this at dry weather across the korean peninsula into japan. can you make it one or 2 wintry flowers? they're just around the north korea. wanted to those just spreading towards a north west of japan, but nothing too much to speak of its attack. cool. if a basing by friday temperatures, then around 15 celsius much china is dry. hullo, a chance of one or 2 light showers as we have towards the weekend. plenty of

showers. meanwhile, across southeast asia, usual seasonal rains, their rumbling away pulse of the way over to some light peninsula. still some lively showers there, into indonesia. hopefully not quite as bad as it has been recently into the philippines. so wet weather does slide its way out into the enemy. said the bar is out of an odyssey some very heavy rain, but for much of india, dry and warm. pretty much sums it up over the next couple of days. you might see one or 2 showers creeping into pakistan, sliding further north and gradually, by the way the weather, sponsored by katara always join the debate. there is no hid, job bad. if anyone here talks about women that i had to force them to be ashamed of, then says no topic is off the table. we were taught to see abortion one way. tickets try to help all the companies. they deny any responsibility, even though they have the resources and the power to fix that, where

a global audience become a global community comment section is right here. be part of today's program, this to him on our just 0. mm. the ah ah, welcome back to come out of the top stories here, this our russian as strike as destroyed a maternity hospital in the seas. ukrainians. if you have money. no deaths have been reported yet, but survivors are fed buried under the rubble. russia says ukraine was using the hospital to set up firing position and ukraine's president blow me at the landscape, described the bombing as an atrocity. he says the attack of further proof that a no fly zone must be imposed by nature. nature though, extending firm and its decision not to fully intervene in ukraine skies or

battlefields and as rather than jordan report, the us and u. k. are talking up the impact of sanctions they've imposed on russia. a show of support for ukrainian resistance from the us state department. it's impossible to see the images of people seeking refuge and keys metro in 2022, and not think of those who shelter in the london underground. $942.00 and you vary a vote of confidence in the west response to russia's invasion tech. we have surprised peter and with our unity and the toughness of our sanctions, those sanction including us and u. k. oil import, bam. cutting russian banks off from international transactions. and the freezing of assets belonging to officials, including president louder, mere potent have rocked the russian economy. the kremlin is crying foul and conditionally the united states to cause a canonical organs. russia that's waging this or the western officials

are unapologetic. they call their economic strategy an extremely effective way of holding moscow accountable for attacking ukrainian civilian. he can nominally the measures that we've taken, have a race 30 years of progress integrating russia into the world. so i think what we're looking at is whether or not president putin will decide to try to finally cut the losses that he's inflicted on himself and inflicted on the russian people. we're very clear that our objective is a peach into fail in ukraine. this unwarranted act of aggression must not succeed, and there will be terrible consequences if it did succeed for european and global security. even though the u. s. and the u. k. agree that vladimir putin will not succeed in conquering ukraine. there wasn't any offering from either the foreign

minister or the secretary of state on what exactly the end of the war will look like or whether any relationship with moscow can continue. if he remains in power. rosalyn, jordan al jazeera at the state department. as well as government just released to us prisoners who washington said had been held as hostages. it's seen as a small but potentially important step. as the u. s. government looks to fill the void of russian oil just in human reports. who sterile got enough? second from the left is one of 6 executives of cit. go the u. s. based affiliate venezuela. state on oil company sentence 2 between 9 and 15 years in prison in caracas, his release and that of cuban american horse albert fernandez, accused of terrorism for flying a drone in venezuela at the 1st tangible results of a secret meeting last weekend between been his wayland president nicole asthma,

rudo and 3 white house on boys the us applause, the men's release, and hopes another southern american prisoners will soon follow. but it concedes that meeting had another key objective. and it's also true that we have an interest globally in maintaining a steady, steady supply of energy, including through our diplomatic effort. so all of these things come to bear when it comes to to venezuela. venezuela has the was largest oil reserves, but its industry and its economy had been crippled by horseshoe, a sanctions aimed at forcing our president ma rudo, whom washington labels a dictator. mcgruder is also russian president vladimir putin staunchest regional allied. he thought helena threatened. yes, he told top military and political leaders that talks with us would continue adding vig spoken to fellow opec members about increasing been as well in oil production that would require the us to ease or eliminate oil sanctions. de la, he said,

by the side of the medical petro later, we have always led initiative to stabilize the market, the gas market, and the energy market. once we have recovered moderately, we are prepared to produce up to 3000000 barrels for the stability of the world. for peace. 5 or thank you. for the last 3 years, washington is recognized. opposition leader one why? law as been his whalers transition president. but the ukraine crisis and the sky rocketing price of fuel seemed to be setting the stage for a more preg magic approach to us venezuela relations. turner came. but if you remember, there's an extraordinary correlation between major oil producing countries and autocratic rules. the u. s. doesn't want to buy russian or running or venezuela oil . the saudis don't answer the phone. so if your button, you don't have the luxury right now to choose who you buy from. to keep personal prices down. you have to pick the lesser evil one. that doesn't mean that

washington is close to recognizing my lou dot. one thing is business and another politics. there is, after all, a long history of commercial ties between countries that don't have diplomatic relations to see in human al jazeera but us as dismissed russian allegation that it's operating bio warfare labs inside ukraine and a series of tweets whitehouse press secretary gen saki described the claims as preposterous shields that suggested that russia's laying the groundwork for full flag operations. so it can potentially use the women she went on to say rushes, laying the groundwork for using such weapons against ukraine itself. she because she has moved from washington dc. one of the prefects, flattery opinion has used for the invasion of ukraine is the allegation that the u . s. and ukraine have a network of the bar trees on the country working on biological warfare. the u. s. has long said, this isn't true that it has a network funded by the department of defense of biological threat reduction

programs that is looking for surveillance for preventing contagion spreading around the world. now russia says it has found the evidence. it was looking for to prove the existence of bio warfare labs. these tweets are refutation of that, but as you can tell from the tweets, china is also asking for almost as it has also been concerned about, the network of labs. the u. s. is set up, it's often also why there's so many and why is they know transparencies or trying to, to say, all right, then prove that these are simply about pandemic surveillance, for example, and not for creating pathogens the spring to some other world news now. and gunman, if killed 19 security personnel in an attack in the north, west, nigerian state of cabbie, it happened late on tuesday, and the village of kenya attack came a day after at least 56 members of a self defense group killed bicycle banners in the area conservative candidate units of your has one south korea election by

a tight margin unit from the people. power pos you want about $4.00 to $8.00 and a half percent of the vote. value point ahead of the governing parties, candidate human takes from current liberal president, moon j in south korea, single non renewable presidential terms of 5 years from so rough right has more on the president elect. he is an interesting character. he sort of presents himself as something of a populist, he is a former prosecutor general. he came to 1st came to prominence as a lead prosecutor in the prosecution of pocky. and hey, she was the disgraced former president who was asked it from office 5 years ago. and made a corruption scandal, she was impeached and imprisoned. but you has absolutely no political experience. he has never held political office, but he seems to present himself as a face of change. he's going to shake things up, bringing the pill that sort of people, and needed to bring about real change. here he is viewed with

a lot of skepticism by many liberals. here is something of a social conservative. some would say almost reactionary. he is suggested, for example, as proposed the scrapping of the ministry of gender equality also when it comes to diplomacy and relations with neighbors, he is very whole case on north korea. now this is going to be important not only here on the korean peninsula, but way beyond the korean peninsula. he wants to take a far tougher stand with north korea. he believes as many conservatives he had do that the policy of conciliation to the north of summit meeting simply has worked. the only way to deal with those career is to be tough as even proposed that south korea would be. all right, to launch preemptive strikes against the laws if it believe that the north was about to launch missile. so when it comes to the troubled into korean relations his election, when would seem to signal a new episode in the into korean relations relations with our neighbor to the know where you're cranes war is pushing up the price of basic goods everywhere leading

to protests in iraq, food, fuel and construction materials, they're about 50 percent more expensive. people filled streets in the southern. if you have nothing, demanding more help from a government. dozens of homes in a school have been destroyed by a landslide in northern peru is triggered by heavy rainfall and the geological tremor. loud noises beforehand alerted locals and gave them time to escape. as many as 100 people have lost their land slides, an avalanche is almost common, improves rule towns in the andes. the maker of oxycontin, the drug blame for fueling the u. s. opioid epidemic is urging a bankruptcy court to approve a new compensation deal. due farmers owners and agreed to turn that company into a public trust and provide $6000000000.00 to combat the epidemic. some states a specific amounts being offered to them, inadequate. now it's taken more than a 100 years, but the records, antarctic explorer, and shackleton ship has finally been found. the endurance sank optimum crushed by

a lot. everybody is together and the saying innocent people cannot be mercilessly murdered. that is not acceptable. according to all faith traditions, if you have no faith traditions in human, it's indecent. it's immoral. the russian orthodox church, patriarch, creal, and ally of vladimir putin has justified the invasion during his sermons saying it is a struggle again. sin religious leaders here flatly reject that double religious leaders of russia and especially to most justify this invasion in this bloodshed. this is acceptable and i think that i should people deserve precedent leadership, both political and religious for some of the religious leaders. they say this mass was just the beginning and they hope and the coming days and weeks they can travel to the region themselves to offer prayers and support in person to those that

needed the most. gabriel's hondo outages here, new york. now the russian space chief recently made a job, but the us space program saying a ban on russian exports of rocket engines would force us to rely on brooms to get to space. when that comment was then turned into a joke, junior space, x launch on wednesday time to let the american broomstick fly and hear the sounds afraid of l d is go for launch to one of our and i just heard during the count down the controller called the rock at the american broomstick launch was a success. basic style cannot, is carrying 48 stalling satellites. a lot of a system to bring internet access to underserved areas of the world and 18 meat along the ukrainian flag has been unfilled in washington dc, across the street from russia's embassy. the symbolic gesture was draped along the side of a hotel in the us capitol. within clear view of moscow's diplomats ukrainians,
