expected. on monday, russia says ukraine is to compromise for the war to end. but for now, the army, the president and countless civilians across the country who have taken up arms to defend their nation and their future refuse to do so. stephanie decker, i'll g 0. or we have correspondence in ukraine across all developments. we have jonah hopeful join us shortly from the vive. you'll have an update on the ongoing talks as a big isn't in a pro with more on the humanitarian corridors. but 1st, enron con reports from outside. the residential building, which was shelled in keith, was just after 5 in the morning were not hillary shell hit the entrance of that building. we think it's got hillary shell. now that's the entrance of a residential building here in the north of keith. when just take a look at the damage, you can still actually smell the burning. now rescue efforts are still continued
2:05 pm
and see or the fire engine there with a ladder going up. they still comb through the building to see if there are any more bodies inside. we are hearing that at least one person has been killed, have been a number of injuries as well. this is a residential building or and that was the entrance that building making people like make amiability. people get out in austin possible. i mean, just take a look, it's an incredible amount of though is all the way through and on the other side of this building as well. now shelling has taken place ah, in areas near here in pain and in butcher. but this is inside keith, this is no key when you cranes, president val otherwise alons, he is urging talks with russia as vladimir putin to meet with him directly. but as he hasn't heard back from the kremlin, but lower level of delegations are meeting for virtual talks, zalinski is advisor says the negotiations have been hard. i suppose the to you miss
2:06 pm

2:07 pm
in terms of a meeting of minds extremely difficult. no obvious. shifting of red lines on either side, the grade is clearly still pushing in big picture terms for a full cease fire. the withdrawal of all russian troops, the russians still pushing for the capitulation, the surrender of keys and the demilitarization of the country guarantees over its neutrality. and the independence of portions of ukrainian land. the reality is the talks that are happening now and not happening at that level. they're not talking about into the wall. they're talking about humanitarian. ready cars, they're talking about roots of evacuation that talking about trying to get humanitarian aid into these dreadfully. besieged places like mario paul, the 4th set of talks at this level. this one taking place over video conference. they're not face to face as they were the 1st 3 times, but we're told in addition that they are having these contacts now by video conference almost daily. so really looking at where they can find routes
2:08 pm
to possible avenues of compromise. and some suggestion through the weekend through comments that have a merge that there are perhaps cautious signs of optimism, of the things that are moving in the right direction. mr. pollock said yesterday that roger is at least beginning now to talk more constructively, less about ultimatums, more about possible areas of compromise. he, they may achieve real results in the coming days. and they wanted slash ski, who is one of the russian negotiators quoted by the russian was also talking about significant progress. and the possibility that draft agreements could be reached very soon. but as i said, not draft agreement spend the war that will only happen between the 2 presidents. mister lensky says he's ready to talk, but only on the terms of a full sci fi and, but it may putin. well, he has also suggested that positive shifts are happening without giving anything more than that away. ok, thank you for the time being john hall reporting from the vive. for more on ukraine's plans to evacuate. people safely,
2:09 pm
let's bring in. i'll just there is as big as it is joining us from any pro that's in the east of the country. so i said as we've been reporting their talks yet again, if establishing humanitarian court or at least that's according to what the ukrainians are saying, what more can you tell us about those? absolutely, that's what the ukrainians, a sangha as establishing 10 humanitarian corridors from areas of the key region to take people out and get humanitarian aid in as well as eastern ukraine, 9 pots of eastern ukraine, though some parts are controlled by russians and separatist, sir, but they're still pockets of ukrainian control within the and ukraine wants to set up humanitarian corridors to get her food and keep her medical supplies in as well as evacuate those that want to leave. also the b. c. strategic port city of mario, paula, that's room besieged by russian forces, re understand the art tanks on and parts of that city. although russia does not have full control of that. now there's been attempts to get humanitarian aid to
2:10 pm
that city for over the last week. and a half, so in theory what the ukrainians say is trying to set up these humana care, incur car does, we're in re, on the reality in, on the ground here is somewhat different because they've been trying to get aged to that city for the last week. and a half does when food trucks and trucks carrying medical supplies are being turned around, in some cases dismal allegation that russians have. sheldon fight upon those on convoys. the russians deny that. but also there's been buses set up to evacuate people again that haven't been able to reach it yesterday they got within 2 hours of mary polt, but they didn't manage to get there today that trying again. now what we're hearing about the situation within mary paul is that the situation is dire. the international committee for the red cross said that people are terrified, traumatized, and have nowhere to go. people at sheltering in basements with no heating is absolutely freezing. hes, the temperatures are well below freezing, there's no food or water, they're running short, and people are risking the lives to get out and try to find
2:11 pm
a food. now the latest figures of those killed residents killed that we have from the local authorities. there is 2500 that's over 300 of from yesterday. so yes, the situation is very difficult and they are talking about humanitarian car doors. but whether those will be establish and whether they can get to especially death usage city is a different question. and what are you hearing on the grounds about the situation in the separatist held regions in eastern ukraine? with her heard that this when a rocket attacked by ukrainian forces, internet's that killed 20 people, an injured age. now we don't have access to those areas. so you can't verify that we've also heard the 80 miners are trapped after their mind was hit by shell and knocked out power. but we also hearing that there was a russian or shell that hit a residential building in chemicals. just east of here that killed 2 people. now
2:12 pm
what that shows is that even in separatist and russian control dairies fighting is still ongoing. they are still pockets of ukrainian resistance. and although the russians may be taking small areas, it's slow, but there's, you constant ukrainian resistance. but we also have to remember that this conflict in the east of the country has been going on since 2014, at least 14000 people have been killed since that time. so there's still to fighting, taking place, just north of in the 2nd largest city in ukraine park, if they're still fighting, taking place there. russia has fired missiles, kodak air strikes and shelled that city, and also tried to enter. but so far, the ukrainian forces of managed to keep them out. okay, thank you so much as unpaid reporting from jennifer. now, poland. biggest cities are struggling to accommodate the waves of refugees fleeing rushes, invasion. the you and refugee agency says at least 2600000 people have now fled

2:14 pm
she said she had not slept in for days when you guys going back to her job in warsaw, after volunteering at the border board, she was mostly greeting refugee or somebody yesterday. so one with ground some i'm sure grinding. so i've said to her and we were talking a little bit, i don't know ukrainian language, it's similar to polish language. so she was talking about or found me or have her home that she has left now. so the sub book, emotional support is something that they need the most is the war continues. she says more volunteers will need to go to the border. something as simple as a warm welcome at poland, stored or can make those forced out of their country feel more at home.
