a half kilometers away from where i am right now was hit by some kind of object as your ukranian authorities describe it, it looks like a russian drone, possibly full of explosives also in the easter towards the easter part of the city . there was also a similar explosion, and also in the south of the air base has been destroyed near the south west of the city. meanwhile, also the ukrainian authorities are warning for the so called false flag operation coming from belarus. they say russian forces might target even a bell rosa to the north here or for ukraine. it's basically only like 2 hours away from the capital alleging may be that balance ocean forces would be drawn into this conflict. we haven't seen any evidence of that, but we've heard that there is a lot of this content in the blue ocean army about adjoining this war. it is a broader hood that there's a lot of families who live here across the border. so it looks like a flooding,

a put in looking for help from belarus, but also volunteers from other parts of the world. but meanwhile, the defense here in ukraine is really fighting a fierce battle for the defense of the capital. and so far, the capital is still in ukrainian hands. let's take a look now at where things stand in ukraine. areas shaded and red are controlled by russia and it's allied separatist faces moscow's concentrated, more forces on the outskirts of the capital. keith and step was explaining in the south, russia has taken control of the area surrounding this appreciate nuclear power plant. and in the north, the chernobyl power plant has also been seized by russian forces. but both sides are still being operated by ukrainian staff. rush is also taking control of her some port city on the back seat. another port city mario pol, remains on the siege and its people are shorter food, water, and electricity. john hall reports now from the vive. on the latest development

a transit point for people fleeing other areas in eastern ukraine that were under heavy bombardment. the immediate impact long queues outside the train station. people standing for hours in sub 0 temperature patiently waiting to escape, despite the fear of another attack. catcher of the decision to pack up and leap as soon as she heard early morning explosions, obama phone has been dead. yeah, it's a nightmare. nato is not doing enough. they should close the sky. they should do more. when they have those standing here had fled the horrors of war once before. their home towns already destroyed. now seeking safe refuge again. irina and her 2 children drove out of how to keep after russian jet fighters flew over her neighborhood for days and the shelling became closer and louder. this conflict has torn her family apart. wilson again, sisters, lensky,

won't do what russia expects from him. so we don't know what awaits us. of course ukraine will not compromise. my son also says, no, we were living in hell in hockey for a week. and now we hate russia. although we have many relatives there. many of those leaving will during the $2500000.00 refugees that have already crossed into neighboring countries. while those staying wonder what's next. and a good honey al jazeera, deeper as the threat grows, the exit is the refugees continues. here's the scene of poland border with ukraine, where large numbers of people are entering on foot. as we mentioned, more than 2 and a half 1000000 people have fed so far. volunteers from across europe have made their way to border crossings to help provide food and other essentials. and we arrived 3 days ago, but here we are. we're operating 247. we don't stop her, the people the refugees are coming from 50 yards away, mostly women and children,

old women and a very sad state. what was what is happening? the polish people have been amazing. so we're here to support the polish people as well as ukrainians because a polish people have received the brunt of this influx. more than half of the refugees escaping ukraine. a children several neighboring countries of opened their doors. the busiest crossings asked the vakio hungry and poland. of course, we're more than a 1000000 and a half people have left ukraine. as the conflict enters a 17th day, refugees, a confronting extremely cold temperatures as they wait to cross the borders. sporadic si, size and ukraine have allowed some to escape through humanity in corridors, but fighting has hampered other evacuation efforts. william, we came from mary, oppose. it is awful. there. the entire city was encircled him. no one could get in around both. we prayed as we were flee. great. god led us and we managed to get out of there all our relatives remaining. of course we have no contact with them. we can't reach them. we are praying for god to save them because we don't know how to

help them get out. children of sick now do they have stomach papers or okay, but i don't know what we're going to do next. we're moving towards uncertainty. let's bring in monica matters. a human rights activists walk working with group her going isa, which provides humanitarian aid to asylum seekers. she joins us now from warsaw and warsaw as obviously one of the places that we're hearing is really finding very difficult to accommodate the sheer numbers of people who are arriving. just give us a sense of what it's like there and, and, and how thinly stretched, i guess you and other engineers are it's, it's something i think i'm explicable and like very hard to describe. it's re hundreds of thousands of people who have to be accommodated very quickly. they need medical who they need legal health, they need explaining what's going to happen to them within the next few months. you

know, they also need some sort of psychological assistance. quite often. first of all, to like, you know, regain their, their, their, their mental ability. after crossing the border and officer is keeping the war. and then the 2nd thing is probably looking into the future. we already know that we have 1000000 and a half people, mostly my, their mothers with children and also, and the only people that you know, all of them are, most of them will stay in poland. that's what we think we know that so far the burden of all of this is lying heavily on the local authorities. and you know, civil society organizations is what's been, who has been helping out the, you know, train stations, stations, organizing, accommodation, etc, etc. so we don't know what's going to happen next, but i'm at the moment,

i think everybody is focused on emergency services. and then we probably need some allusions from the government to, to just, you know, sort of like open long term for all of this migrants. of course. yeah. how much are you talking there about civil society? what, what is the response being like, how much support is they been from the polish people? i know there were reports of. 7 of racism at the border for some people perhaps know of ukrainian origin who were trying to get out of ukraine. what's the response been like from your experience in poland? so asked is group again, he said we are actually quite focusing on helping people, you know, fleeing ukraine who are essentially non ukrainians. of course, lots of our organizations are obviously has the everybody, but like we just sort of noticed that this is a special,

special group. i think the, i think the race is meant segregation starts at the very institutional level, you know, at the high level of the station for the mental administration, we've been watching how over the last few days did holy shit, the station for refugees of war and ukraine. has been prepared and i mean already there, there are signs of segregation right races. so i think in terms of like sort of like random random bowlers and like basically polish the society is quite ok and what are welcoming but since we have already and i read it's like this from the top, you know, from the government and it's going to be hard to treat everybody equally and to, to have everybody have access equally to all of the services. that's for sure. how long do you think that welcome is going to last? because as you say, the cities are becoming overwhelmed. we are very worried that it's not going to

last long because i mean nobody can handle that many people. and especially if there's really not much help from the central government. so you know that the people's patience and also ability to, you know, put out their, their homes, their money, et cetera. i think it will run out at some point. i mean, logically and reasonably, i don't know how long, maybe weeks, maybe months. it also depends very much about like from the, you know, head on a, gets from the west, from the european union, from the, you know, central government systemic solutions, etc. mm. what is the biggest need, i mean, just practically right now, is it sort of home? so bold for people to sleep in having a roof over their head or other other basic necessities. would you say a lacking right now? i think homes, so definitely accommodation. and so this has to be distributed sort of around equally around poland. but it's very hard to organize it, you know, 1st of all,

because of like, you know, logistics and who is supposed to organize it actually. and then the 2nd thing is, i'm sort of like, you know, talking like people, you know, you, ukrainians, and non ukrainians organizing organizing themselves. a lot of people actually see, think that they will be able to go back within a few days to ukraine, which i think we all know by now is not free possible. mm hm. so you know, they are unable to really and righty. so they're unable to take any decisions about moving. so they've, they had to train stations, you know, they said temporary share. but in order to be able to house, as many people as possible, i think we need to sort of like ease the burden, which is right now. i, you know, mostly in war so and crackled the biggest cities. mm. yeah. as you say, it must be so difficult to make decisions when there's so much uncertainty for

these people who fled, hey will have leave enough time. thanks for your time. monica matches there. i think riser, harvest, dozens of children have died in the war, and te, ukrainian human rights group says the tall is likely to grow the thousands more having forced into a new life in different countries. some have made it to lithuania, where they're getting a warm welcome and you're chappelle levels. it took a while to get them here, but the children made it out safely and can play or rest for a bit. there are orphans from easter new crane who'd spent days in a basement taking cover as russia targeted a military installation nearby. they made a 1600 kilometer journey to reach safety in lithuania, west, literally those go christina kit deleted merlin murray in us at the po, can we heard the measles fly by and it was frightening. they make her whistling sound as they pass. i'm afraid of those who didn't see that. yes. ah,

cruise missiles whirling past bon blas in the distance, 7 and a half 1000000 children in ukraine are in danger of physical harm, emotional distress and displacement according to say, the children go along for years. i knew money k g. it was very difficult for the little ones. when we were leaving. they were crying because they had to leave. he teaches, it was very difficult. even my heart was broken because it's very difficult for small children, but seeing how happy they are. i think they like it here. 44 orphans get hot food and a roof over their heads. people here in lithuania are giving what they can to help and preparing local schools to welcome them from our history. we know how do a student could be an invasion and devastator lives, of people for many, many new generations. so all the latino now experiencing girl tsunami of goodwill and support for ukraine. the children will need it to regain any sense

of normalcy to move past the trauma of war. yuk, enter chappelle al jazeera of 20 more ukraine war coverage to come on al jazeera, including a warning from the wells nuclear watchdog for us and shelling of a research center in ukraine. overcrowded into on the staff with challenges facing schools in chad. meet children, hang the price. then in sports, we look ahead to a crunch game in the race to finish, and the english premier league for ah, how i recall more wet and windy weather, pushing into western parts of europe over the next couple of days. at least it does stay mild, but quite as small as it has been recently, but still not too bad for the time of year. we got the so by the system pushing in,

you can see these wireless fronts just gagging up, running into this area of high pressure that's now drifted little further east would. so that's allowing the systems to bring that wet weather in. not just across sea, british hours, yard of ireland, pushing in across france to spain and portugal, some lobby showers there to across that western side of the mediterranean for central amazed and pass. it does stay fine and dry, still some winter flowers over towards yeast. keep, again, could see some sleep, the snow coming through advocacy temperatures around 3 celsius. so at least not as cold as it has been, but still some snow but lever. the less snow still lurking there across parts of turkeys we go on in to sunday. not as widespread does look dryer across, so you crime we are going to see try clear weather into central parts of europe and still more of that cloud and rain coming into those western parts with quite a keen wind, blowing through some of the showers, also affecting the far north of algeria, morocco pushing into northern parts of libya and it's egypt for the south because

some dust hayes, the nigeria. ah. when i think of my niger, i think of potential when i think of potential i think of what b, what is not. i think of young people literally take them to the own. i'm good something that they come to tell me. it's impossible. i think it on the challenge is when the child in the country my name has been. gotcha, so and this is my job, my, my gear on our do their and the latest news as it breaks. this is one of the growing number of checkpoints around the city of suffer risha. most of the men that you see here are members of the civil defense forces. they all volunteers with detailed coverage workers are focusing on the more vulnerable but

many more need help from around the world. because an area that generally sees abundant rainfall, but strong wind lack of humidity by making it easy for fire like this one to spread all across. lou. wow. ah, you're watching all jazz era reminder about top stories this. our russian forces is slowly advancing on you. christ capital, he's gone, fire and explosions were heard. the early hours of saturday, military convoy is taken up positions surrounding the city protest, as in the ukrainian city of melita pole are demanding the release of their mer. ukraine's government is put out security camera video, which it says shows him being abducted by russian soldiers, 2 and

a half 1000000 refugees of hell left. ukraine, putting pressure on neighboring european nations or source map says refugees make up 10 percent of the polish capitan's population. the combination is running out. russian president vladimir putin has backed plans to allow foreign volunteer fighters into east in ukraine. kremlin says it's already received more than 16000 applications from people in middle eastern countries. but it's meth reports for moscow. from a middle east battlefield to european one, syrian soldiers are being asked to join rushes fight in ukraine. we sacrifice our blood and soul for you, syria, for you, bashar is that call to arms on the banners. it read the great russian army. we will defeat the nazis. this is from the social media channel of russia's defense ministry. and russia's president says, they're welcome to come to don bus back in easton ukraine,

where russian buck separatists from don yet can against a fighting government forces in response to reports of foreign fighters joining ukraine's army. the russian government says it too is had requests from all over the world to join the battle regarding the gathering of soldiers from around the world for you green, we see them divest the sponsors of the ukrainian regime. do not keep it secret. they do it openly, disregarding international law. so if you see people who want will then tear league without payment to come and help people in dumbass while we need to meet their efforts and help them reach the combat zone on the talks of ukraine. the most recent were on thursday in turkey. putin says his negotiators tell him, there are certain positive shifts. tonight. he was talking to baller russian present, alexander lucas shanker, who is in moscow. luca shank has given russia troops an access to its territory to help the invasion of ukraine, its board by the route, a similar level of functions as russia faced with countries. and we have been

overcoming the sanctions for as long as you'd like. we have to build back our economy, which we can do without them. we have everything to live and work normally. but life in russia is not normal at the moment. the further threatened crackdown on social media highlight. your facebook says it's relaxing, it's hate, speak rules in relation to russia, invasion of ukraine. so prosecutors here won't parent company matter, declared an extremist organisation and facebook and instagram to be blocked. criminal cases have also been opened into matters staff, though none a base. here is the company as long resisted demands to open an office. in russia. bernard smith al jazeera, moscow for beaver is a military and defense expert. he joins is now for london. thank you for your time . i want to start by getting your take on what's happening in key, if or just around on the outskirts of key of that military column appears to be

attacking now for multiple france. what kind of weaponry will the russians be using? what kind of defense can we expect from the ukrainians? and could this end up in face street to st. combat? certainly, right. what we're seeing now is the next phase of the attack on keith. so we had for about 10 days, what's called a line of march, which is a vehicle is being put into position where for about 40 kilometers refueled, restart to that munition and then dispersed into a circular movement so that they can cut off all access to keyed and then they'll push it, and this is the same tack to the red army used in berlin, and 945. at the end of the 2nd multiple, it's a standard russian tactics. what they'll need, however, is to have 10 times more soldiers than ukraine can have, because that's the sort of figures you need in order to invest the city of the

advantages on the defenders. because they know the city, the more rubble there is the more places that are off the high density weapons and snipers. so this is going to be a very bloody battle. and just like in berlin, in 1945, where the red army paid no heed to tools and civilians. the russian army will do exactly the same when it goes into cave and other cities, as we've seen already up. this will be bloody and it will be a really bad time. and they'll be lots of propaganda. this is become a real propaganda war. the so much propaganda, actually, i have to say on both sides, but particularly by the russians. so we're having, we've got 2 different parts of this war. now. one is this really, really desperate mechanized war with missiles and bombs and tanks and the other is played out on the international media. and it's all about gaining the narrative as

they say, gaining the advantage and propaganda. that's a really frightening prediction. i want to ask you about foreign fight, his debbie welcome to recruited from both sides. but let's talk 1st about russia's efforts. how big is prisons, recruitment drive? and how do you think those recruits will be used? well, we've already seen that the russians have got pro moscow kitchens working with them . these are very good street fighters, so they are an added bonus to the russian army. the russian military have committed nearly all of the regular soldiers. and now they both have been putting in some of their reserves and the conscript. this means that they've taken a lot of casualties, and this also means that they're not on should jewel. so they will need to back filbert people with other nations. we've seen demonstrations,

i think yesterday i am damascus with the syrian flag portraits of president i'm sad of the palestinian flag flying. i can see that they will be ironically, palestinians might well join in this on the russian side. despite everything that russia has done to oppressed the, the muslim peoples of all set here just on untouched. but this is turning into a little bit of a fight between america and the west and, and russia. so on that side of it, the russians, we can expect to offer a bounties to people coming to fight most of the people coming to fight for ukraine and not doing it for money that doing it because they believe the russian invasion is wrong. and they want to do something about it. we've had, i think it's 4 soldiers have left their barracks and i'm traveling to function in

ukraine. that's unusual. and of course it's illegal in britain for them to do that . so there's, there is all sorts of things developing now in this war, which i think is going to go on, much longer than president putin had originally planned. i don't think it's going to get and bloody or 2 things i want to pick up on from your onto there. one, why would palestinians want to fight on behalf of russia, palestinians who know what it is to be oppressed. you know what it is to live under occupation, isn't it bizarre? it is totally bizarre to me but. but there are good photographic photographic evidence in social media yesterday showing this rather with the russian playing, the palestinian flag of the syrian flag being closed and people volunteering. i think it's, it's a case really that displays palestinians say this is as being a cause that they couldn't join. and that if they can't expel israel from the

the occupied territories, then perhaps they can do something else. i find it ironic, quite frankly, then you could sell the narrative to them and say, well ukraine is a fascist state and therefore you need to, to, to join in the fight. i find the ideologies incredibly mixed as you say. so much of this is, is a parallel was being forward on the information front. the other thing i wanted to pick up on is how foreign fighters might be used, because particularly, syrian fight is a being welcomed to russian to the russian side. i've been asked to fight in easton, ukraine. how would those fighters be use? some analysts have suggested quite cynically that those would be the people who would be sent out 1st being seen as slightly more disposable. but i think it depends on what you watch, experience a serious fight,

dot. remembering that over the last 10 years will. so syrian fighters have been fighting alongside russians. this is a syrian that loyalty prints an asset. so they've come back experience they've brought experience of fighting and built up areas. it's the most difficult part of soldiering. a built up area, it's full of booby traps. and so when i put and potential data in that you can get tracks in the syrian fontes may just be the people that the russians will use. a some sort of spirit had to clear houses. house clearing is part of the fighting and built up areas. it's going in at one level, going through how systematically clearing it to anybody who might be considered an enemy. that's of course, because the real problem, the civilian it appears that this bombardment, rushes invasion, is widening within attacks. now happening more in the west of the country. do you

think the russians will be wanting to spread themselves right across the country to spread themselves spin? yes, i think the russians are going to be spread thin, but they only really won't be a been areas. they want the, the major cities and the, they're achieving some successes that they want to link crimea to the dumbass. they want to take the port cities to stop read supplies coming in. and they'll probably want to try and stop read supply routes from a neighboring countries that are very friendly towards ukraine and such as potent and so that romania and most so there be working hard to break on those colored goals. but 1st, the priority is to capture keith, to remove the government and install their own puppet. who will say that he's delighted to liberate the country from fascism. it's just such

a ridiculous narrative, but in russia, people buy it. all right, thank you very much for bringing up your, your perspective, your analysis a whole be the military and defense expert. thank you. the walls nuclear watchdog is again warning about the threat of a major incident. it comes after russian forces sheldon, nuclear research institute and khaki, if we're having reports shattered windows damaged wall panels the aftermath of a rush, an air strike at car keys, institute of physics and technology, ukraine's largest and oldest nuclear science research center on the from the russian side, several shells have been fired towards the territory of the institute thing called the mine installation remained intact. but there's quite a lot of damage around the institute. this is a research center, not a nuclear plant, but spent radioactive fuel stored here. and that needs to be protected for robots

from the fact that in working condition, the installation does not pose any threat. if the physical damage of this installation takes place, it's possible that the fuel and radioactive elements would leak. and of course, it would be a big, big problem for the environment. ukraine's nuclear sites had been caught up in the fighting. russian troops are now in charge of sher noble, the site of the world's worst nuclear accident. and there was shelling at europe's biggest nuclear power station, a fire erupt in at a training facility that burnt for hours. the world's nuclear watchdog says it has to move fast to ensure that a nuclear incident doesn't become an unintended consequence of this war. leah harding al jazeera, the war is threatening to send food. prices, thawing across parts of the middle east in north africa. many countries beverly heavily on wheaton ports that has more. 11000 tons of wheat arrived in lebanon this

week, but this will be the last shipment from ukraine, the world's key we producers, russia and ukraine are at war, lebanon, like other countries in the middle east and north africa can no longer rely on them for most of their imports, they're now trying to make up for an expected shortage. busy got other we've reached out to a number of countries, including the us, india, canada, and some european countries which produce the software we need for our bread. but the problem is not just finding alternative sources. diversifying supplies could mean transportation delays or an increase in shipping costs. we prices have already hit a 14 year high. the us to go and differently, we will resort to more expensive countries that export weight, which would sell to us at prices that are not as cheap as in russia and ukraine. so if the conflict is prolonged and supply is list,

this will lead pressure on the balance of payments or the budget. egypt, for example, is one of the largest importers of weight in the world, and 80 percent of its supply is from ukraine and russia. it is considering raising the price of bread for the 1st time in $3.00 decades. it's no difference in lebanon, where authorities warn the central bank may not be able to subsidize bread. if prices continue to rise, the tunisian government, which is believed to be running out of money, has been rationing flower and reduced bread production. increase in prices will affect millions of people in the middle east and north africa who live in poverty. have a lot of money to have a grainy rushing war will affect import, export, and trade. because we are all importers of weeds, and most of the food stamps are from abroad in the soda the. across this region, economies have been hit by inflation and large public debt. others have been destroyed by war, syria no longer produces enough. we to feed its population,

so it relies on imports and it's now rationing wheat. the world food program says 12000000 syrians are food insecure, while yemen is on the brink of semen. gammon, for example, were 16000000 people require food assistance and the world food program is interesting. 13000000 of them. this country is almost entirely dependent on food importance and dependent on import of wheat from russia, from ukraine, sorry, by about 30 percent. so any shock, any slight shock would actually send these countries into a very, very serious food crisis. food prices are at their highest level, so as poverty in a region already turmoil and where higher brit prices have led to popular anger in the past santa who there else is either a quick check of some other news now. and timmy has a new president, obama, which is a former student leader, is for mr. moore inclusive society,
