stay without is the rest of the latest development as 35000 feet from $28.00 nato countries demonstrate their abilities in a region already. okay. ah, this is al jazeera. ah. although i'm robot this, and this is the news i live from, doha, coming up in the next 60 minutes escaping the bombardments. more evacuations are under way from the besieged. ukrainian city of mateo. paul curfew was declared in keen vest residential blocks or hit again. 3 european leaders had to the capital in a show of support for ukraine's leaders glazing hope about iran's nuclear deal.

russia says revival of the agreement is in the home. the strait an indian court upholds the decision to bomb head coverings in schools in one state or decision, some c as a violation of religious freedom. and in sports, a denay, mendez will lose his position at the top of the world rankings that off to the russian. that was knocked out in the 3rd round indian wells fight gale mon fees, all have been trapped without food running water and electricity for days. and now thousands of ukrainians in the port city of mario paul, making an escape from the russian bombardment, a humanitarian. colorado has been opened for a 2nd day. that corridor leads to the body shop in eastern ukraine. i'll just see it. as i said, big is there for us. talk to us about these evacuees that we're seeing coming from

mario paul, and heading to many of them to where you are in jeopardy show. yes, we've spoken to people ahead. there's been about 60 calls arise last night. the big 2nd more today now when they get here, this is one of the centers where they 1st arrive as old communist era test. and what happens is that they register behind me over that they named that they're checking family members checking names of those arrived because many people have family members that been tracked and married, pull them and they get those. they are toys, they're given food. and here you can see donation from people from ordering ukrainians, making a massive effort to try and welcome these people that have escaped from medical just medical that they've escaped from the surrounding areas that is fighting taking place. people are coming from over to try to get to the safe, a part of ukraine and the people that we've spoken to. many are shocked and

traumatized. many have lived in the towns and villages all their lives and have no nothing else. and now they've been forced to leave, but we also have people that have been displaced a number of times because it's fighting in the east of the country has been going on since 2014. so many people are less of a safer part of ukraine, and now again, they've been forced to leave. but the ukranian authority is saying that 2000 cause, again, have left marable, but that's not enough. the city has around 400000 people that has been seized by the russians and the ukrainians desperately want to get into that city. and the situation that we've been hearing from inside my report is that there's a lack of food, water, lack of heating, people taking shelter in basement, but trying to get a and to doesn't cause as far as ukrainians are concerned, isn't enough. about less than 24 hours ago, you were in the city of denise pro, and we understand that there been

a tax there as well. tell us about those now you understand that to miss of the airport and that's been, the runaway has been destroyed. now that took place last night, in fact, we could hear the air raid siren going gulf around 2 am onwards. when that strike apparently took case, not the 1st time, the airport has been hit just a 2nd time. on friday, the building was near the kindergarten and one person was killed. now what this shows is that there's still a threat in easton ukraine. even the cities that are considered to be relatively safe. and i've been talking and this is the russian quite multiple front. even to the north of denise, we have the 2nd largest city ukraine for a few that was hit throughout the night and the authorities. this a 600 residential buildings have been destroyed. the russians tried to enter that city, but were repelled by ukrainian forces. so fighting is ongoing,

but that front line is always shifting, and the russian opening up multiple fronts, not only in ukraine, but throughout the country. we've been reporting to us from jeopardy should, as i said, thank you very much indeed. well, in a surprise, move 3 european leaders have gone to ukrainian capital despite ongoing shelling on the outskirts of the city, the prime ministers of poland, sabina and the czech republic has set for talks with president landscape. they want to show you support the ukraine is russia continues to try to take the country by force, as john hall reports from levin. the battle for the capital continues with daily shilling that includes residential buildings from russian positions. just 15 kilometers away and closer quarters, fighting on its suburban outskirts western intelligence assessments point to ground offensives that have largely stalled with russian troops making little or no progress towards strategic objectives. but he's towns like

a pin butcher and hoster malware to fall apart could open up for a push into key of itself. in the meantime, the major centers of this conflict continued to get pounded from artillery positions and from the air. yet more residential buildings hit in our cave and chinese and russia maintains a stranglehold of merrier pole in the south. a convoy of vehicles was able to leave the besieged port city on monday, but no aid supplies made it in. the resumption of ceasefire talks on tuesday may result in a more sustained local cease fire around murray. a pole where it's clear relief cannot come too soon. hundreds of thousands of people are trapped in conditions of unimaginable hardship in a city. blockaded and bombarded for 2 week bodies are said to lie unconnected in

the st. supplies of food, water and medicine. near exhausted, should we ukraine's presidency. lensky has urged russian troops to surrender monthly by a demon your brain school and not only on behalf of the ukrainian people. we give you a chance to live. if you surrender to our forces, we will treat you as humans have to be treated with dignity. the way you have not been treated by your own army and the way your army does not treat our people to choose. so a 2nd day of cease fire talks and separately, an adviser to president zalinski has said he believes the war will be over by may at the very latest. a prediction based on intelligence reports of slower than expected, russian progress, larger than expected russian losses. its forces spread increasingly thinly across the vastness of north south and east, a new crime, vinegar, wishful thinking, perhaps, brothers in a little a daughter's delirium. the units of the people militia after death republic

continued to compressed in circumventing mario paul, the general advance from the east of the northern and western direction, was up to 800 meters fertile. the divisions of the russian armed forces are continuing offensive operations. although most of what images, there are reports that russia has already prevailed on allies like china and syria for help. but all the heart in this fight belongs to ukraine, and it refuses to submit your whole al jazeera movie. among cons, had one of the apartment buildings in chief that was hits and he spoken with one of its residents. this is where it's like to be inside one of the apartments in this bond. our building to happen in the early hours of the morning, the sex your child's reminder is the kid that normally lives here. she's actually been evacuated, but you can see the windows, the power of the bloss blew the windows and they've actually managed to tidy up a lot of the glass. get it all out a lot. there. the kids,

books and things are now actually on the balcony. there's still a lot of damage here. this is watches law who lives here vice love to tell us what happened in the morning. 05 for early in the morning our we a listener, very big boom and and ah, a smell of full gun powder and no, we flip and on corridor. no, like every 79 months nights and i and my jam hon this place and saw absolutely the damage her own mo, with the broken window glass all the way and her own. it was very new. i was very afraid and but i will be in absolutely in calm yea claim a year and a because i understand my girlfriend too was very afraid and old master staring.

and i'm must be clue claim, and i'm starting her a call it to our think star for, for going out to street a very traumatic experience. you know, you said that you've been sleeping in the corridor or rather than the bedroom. yeah . will you told to do that or is this something you felt you had? oh, it was sleeping every night and corridor. it was a like a self defense it because we understand it's a war and a bummer can happen every time because we are absolutely it was close to his shoes. her with her. our baggage for south for

samson. yeah. well, it's lucky that you were in the corridor. a lot of people in these apartments are actually sleeping in the corridors precisely because they're afraid of an attack like this. well, that's a situation in the capital here, but odessa is one of the cities along the southern coast that still under you can ukrainian control, but the russian military is approaching our correspondence or the other. hamid is there and talk to us about what things are like in the city harder. well, certainly you can see from the picture behind me here. this is a 4 to 5 city. this is a city that has actually been hit on the 1st night of the war and february 24th 20 people died on that day. and it is a city that president vladimir savanski had warned more than once that russia is planning to attack. it is a very strategic port city on the black sea,

one of the most important points for ukraine, a lot of exports happen if from that city. and as you mentioned, there is a rush in advance to the south of odessa and the russian chiefs are still stuck in nico mika live. but that's only about a 130 kilometers from here. now do ukrainians say that at the moment they control the n 24, which is the road that would leave from nikolai to odessa. but odessa is odessa feels that is not under pressure from this advance from the south. they could this also the fact that is facing the black sea there you, ukraine is, are saying that the russians, ah, for, did you find old building up there? naval positions in this see that the, the city could be attacked from the sea as well. and then some do also say that a 3rd front could be opened from across the border in moldova,

from that break away a region of trans nice trip, which is of course, pro russia as soon as the city that feels that it could become very quickly under siege and it's actually throughout my travels in this country. it is one of the most fortified cities i've seen so far behind those fortifications. how are people coming to terms with the fact that the russian military could be approaching and their lives could significantly change? well, i would say that more than half of the population has already left odessa. now, what's very interesting about this plays in this is a city that was openly pro russian. this is a city where after the annexation of crimea, back in 2014. 0 that so riots between the pro ukrainian news use and a pro russian use. and those were deadly rise about 40 of people died did time and

is, is also city that has a lot of russian investment tourist from russia come here all the time. so it's all is a city that has seen itself lay bad. now where ever since we've arrived here really from the checkpoints at the entrance of the city with that very heavy security, or we have seen all ukrainian flags. i was speaking to a young man earlier, and i said to him, well, you think that russia once a day, as they said, of course, russia wants a desert because of all these investments because of all these factories that are here, all that russia money that's here because of his strategic point, but he also said that many of the pro russians who are here were horrified not only but what is unfolding and key, but what happened in another to is city considered very much for russia and kind of came. and i asked, do you think this would happen here with russia destroyer does that, which is sort of considered the jewel of the black sea. and he said,

i have no doubt they were destroyed if we don't give in. but from what i've seen around, we've been here only a few hours. this is a city that is now showing do ukrainian color supporting the ukrainian colors and very much back in ukraine or the other humming talking to us from odessa. honda, thank you. ukrainian children are becoming refugees at a rate of one per 2nd. according to the united nations. that $70000.00 a day are almost one and a half 1000000 children in total. since the war began nearly 3 weeks ago, the refugee agency says more than 3000000 people have left ukraine to escape to fighting. more than half of those refugees have gone to poland. polish president. anti do that has signed a new law to help the huge number of refugees who arrived the legislation allows ukrainians in poland to legally stay and work in the country. in the shop, a reports from crock of poland. second city looks different, these days,

soldiers, scooters, refugees and sidewalks, reminders of russia's war and ukraine, at the consulate and crock of hundreds of ukrainians. wait in line for hours every day. in your just what's happening in ukraine is awful. it's more shooting, killing, they don't hesitate to kill anybody. it's mentally very difficult. my mind just kind of take us love to move in because i have no idea when this will end. i think that it will take a long time before it's over. lots of people will die. this is horrible. disability recently arrive or part of the diaspora for ukrainians. uncertainty and chaos have become been are getting passports, having documents attested the drudgery of life admin, taking on much more significance now as many ukrainian prepared to be away from home for an unknown period of time. poland his never seen an influx of so many refugees. so quickly, crackers mayor says,

the city has its limits of dental dugger doesn't miss got, you know, i think i'm seeing it the same as every citizen of the city, but it's a major challenge for the most important thing is humanitarian aid. no matter want . we are trying to do whatever we can. this war is something really terrifying most . this is number of this like a go for public housing for refugees is near capacity. the mayor says his city needs more government funds to keep helping people. for now, the fate of many is in the hands of hardworking volunteers, a charities throughout the country. donations keep coming around the clock, volunteers working throughout the night to pack supplies, most headed for keys, the besieged ukrainian capital, foresee a huge originally from ukraine. this is personal. the 2nd floor of this charity has been turned into a temporary shelter for mostly women and children. the biggest challenge he says, is finding people a place to sleep in the beginning, people only slept here for one night and then left it. now they're staying for 3 or

4 nights. we're looking for places for them to go. the government promised help, but we don't know if that's going to be enough. will cities like crack over dealing with wave after wave of refugees and with worsening violence in ukraine? there's no hiding from the fact they won't be going home any time soon. who's in basra, vo de 0, krakow poland, a opinions, and earns more sanctions against russia. they include banning all transactions with a number of state owned enterprises. paul brennan's joining us live from london. this is the 4th round of sanctions that have been brought against russia. what more do we know about them? well, they've been targeting investment in russia's energy sector. it's important to remind, remember that was the europe is dependent on russian energy. so what this raft of new sanctions targets is investment by the west into russian energy infrastructure . they're also banding luxury, good exports from europe into russia. so that sending luxury good worth more than

around $330.00 us dollars. any call worth more than 5 worth more than $55000.00 us dollars. that will no longer be allowed to be exported into russia. and the other area where the opinion union has decided to sanction is a ban of imports of steel products from russia in to europe. and it's estimated that that will be somewhere like $3600000000.00, sorry, dollars worth of russian steel products. a significant impact on the market that now as well as european sanctions. the u. k. has this, lunchtime lost its own sanctions. 370 individuals are now added to the case list of sanctioned individuals name. crude names as recognizable is dimitri metadata, who's the former russian president and prime minister, now says deputy chair of food and security council, russian defense minister,

chicago, and also recognizable people. dmitri pest golf, who is putins pestle spokesman, and maria grover, who is the prevalence spokeswoman, as well, very often does those news conferences that we get, that we see they've all been sanctioned, as well as a raft of oligarchs to paul. stay with me for a 2nd because i want to talk about this meeting that you k prime minister boss johnston's been holding with the leaders of nordic and baltic countries. the talks are expected to focus on efforts to boost military support to ukraine, and how to reduce energy dependence and russia. ukrainian president vladimir zalinski, his address, the leaders virtually his called for more action to help stop the war. but why is it that these nations, these countries are so significant in this and the j at the joint expeditionary force is it is an alliance and military alliance of northern european countries. now some of them are members of nato, but not all of them. some of them are members of the european union, but not all of them are and together, all 4 of them, for example,

have land borders with russia. now, in the front line, when you're talking about russia, sending bombers to prob, european ass space, it's normally these countries, the baltic nations, the scandinavian countries, and additional members are netherlands, u. k. and iceland. now they've got together in order to try to work out exactly how better to support ukraine in this current invasion in this current war. and the topics of conversation where if, for example, how to better coordinate the military response. so for their own, secure, for their own security of the j f nations, but also how to put, put more military resources into ukraine to deliver some of those missiles that ukraine has been calling out for. that said, president zalinski who addressed the, the gathering by by video, was a little scathing as to the response of these nations. he said that nato, that's different to the j e. f. a. nevertheless, zelinski said nato had been kind of hypnotized by russia over this invasion. he

criticized nato for not allowing ukraine to pass through what nato always says is an open door policy. but it is a difficult balancing act that zalinski has to try and keep these allies close to him, while at the same time, probing and prodding them to do more, let's have a listen to what to lensky has to say. we all are the targets of russia and everything will go against europe. beef ukraine won't stand. so would like to ask you to help yourself by helping us, you know, the kind of weapon we need, every one knows, you know, what kind of her defense or measures when age, you know, do you know what we, that i need is the fighter jets and without your support, it would be very difficult. nabarra johnson at the host of that meeting said in response to challenges quite rightly to do more. we know that we can or we must do more. paul, thank you very much for brandon talking to us from london. or cutty league, so senior policy fellow at the european council on foreign relations and she's

joining us life from talon. thank you very much. indeed, for being with us on al jazeera, there is a growing sense that the baltic states are certainly several of them are very concerned that this action by russia could spill over from ukraine and engulf them . how realistic of fear do you think that that is? i think we need to ask how good, what happened? many people in the baltic states really seemed to think that once russia manage his talk it by your crane, but baltic states will be next target. they have a concept but put in once to restore with soviet union, all former russian empire, and gather as much land as he possibly can. and of course, the tall mar of 1940 that many people still remember when russia occupied the politic states, but set off invigorates. but we'll now my own veal as

a russia watcher is slightly different. i don't think so, but the baltic states are an aim in itself for russia, at least they have not been so far. but you could the match him. that wall creates a logic of it so. so you could imagine scenarios under which fighting will spill away. ukraine's borders or for instance, if russia threat for it finds itself existentially threaten by nato, either militarily or when it comes to sanctions, then it might want to engage in new care signaling. and that could potentially involve baltic states. so i think that sedation from a baltics is definitely dangerous, isn't waste. there is a significant differences now because back in the 19 voice, of course we didn't have nato lithuania, latvia as stony. are there just some of the natal members, they have the protection of nato ukraine. crucially, of course, isn't

a member of nato, as we well know, that has created its own on allowances for russia to be able to feel that it can move in. do you think that given the fact that some of these baltic countries do have the protection, if you like, of nato, that these fears are unfounded? or is there another way that russia could attempt to break up the baltic states without actually invading them? well, i think a baltic states are more in danger. exactly, because they are in nato. i think elena membership really is very good protection against the scenario of the dissimilar to 1940 or what is happening in your crane. now? i don't think russia is trying to test if nato railey defends the board thinks at least that has not been part of their thinking. but native membership creates another danger. but if more skill fails, threatened by washington, it might want to signal its displeasure by doing something ugly in the baltic

states. exactly because the baltics are affiliated with washington. russia has rest of stare of influence centric world veal and so then the baltic states are in america's fair up in france, and on to some really unfortunate circumstances that could actually come to harm the baltic states. but all things, you know, if, if, if you look at all the trade offs, i think everyone in the baltic states is still very happy that but they are in nato . i mean, no one would want to be outside nato at the time, like that. the prime ministers of, of, as we been reporting of poland, severe and the czech republic are heading for talks with presidents zalinski and achieve their expect to do that in the coming hours. and what kind of message do you think that that sends? will it be effective and are we likely to see more leaders from baltic states during the same sort of thing? josh, i think it is a large to symbolic. this is signaling girl sully diary. they probably want to have

a look at the actual situation also in person how they can help. i live as it has its ups and downs. i think actually it will be an additional burden to the ukrainians who are busy defending by country. now vainly to provide secure it to the visiting dignitaries. at the same time, it gives us grounds to think that moscow probably will not attack t m to day. so key of gains, hopefully at least another day of relative peace. but in political terms, i wonder how effective it can be. ah, none of these countries are active in any kind of mediation efforts. ah, they don't have prerequisites for that. so yes, i think it is largely symbolic, cadillac, we appreciate you joining us, and i'll just get a mom. thank you very much indeed for your time. thank you. on some of the weather

is wrong. nasa horn dusk is everywhere. caribbean south america. it's rather easier to bring it up into space because that big circulation of cloud is indeed a storm has been bringing sand into spain, so it gives you an orange scar. this is all coming up throughout jerry, it's very strong when it's been batching the eastern side of spain. and if you keep going threat to say there was some rain associated with it. that's can be further west now into analisia and also the yoga in southern portugal. but space i think was probably going to be covered in, in sand, the orange stuff over the next day or so that will stay there. this is the when this drawing it up originally that's one side of the storms. it's near the one is normally gail cross madeira and the canary islands. so the warnings that waves up to 14 or 15 meters on land in morocco, you've got rain and stuff in the atlas mountains. it's mid march that little late for this to be going on, but it is doing that. it's expanding itself electric wednesday as the orange

representing has been brought up in the air and covering a good policy. but even parts of france, i think bother the opposite story. in eastern turkey, it's been snowing again mid march, but that winter is not over. it's not immediately visible, but it's there in the east for wednesday. and thursday still hadn't al jazeera the worse financial crisis in a decade. in charlotte, his capital protest was take to the streets to rally against the worsening economy in sports. gonna show you how this sicilian golfer picked up the biggest one of his career at the players championship ah, from international politics to the global pandemic. and everything in between, it did not respect poor people and your our planet promised to ensure the safety of women. what happened just the 15 got pulled back,

that people actually have more feel. why is the u. k, so hostile to transfer the mystery to all of us join me if i take on the live this man or the misconceptions and debate the contradiction at the time to get up front on al jazeera, the natives news as it breaks. this is one of the growing number of chip points around the city of suffer risha. most of the men that you've seen here, a members of the civil defense forces. they all volunteers were detailed coverage. workers are focusing on the most vulnerable, but many more need help from around the world. because an area that generally fees abundant grain fall, but strong winds, lack of humanity are making it easy for fire like this one to spread all across hulu.

ah, what channel does it our reminder of our top story is this. our ukrainian authorities say 2000 cars of left mateo, paul, and the latest evacuation from the besieged city dash on to the 2 sides agreed to 9 humanitarian colorado. as across the country earlier, as russian bombs fall and ukrainian cities, the leaders of poland, lavinia, and the czech republic of announced their intention to visit the capital. later on tuesday, he was mayor says at least 4 people have been killed by strikes and the city earlier. the ones refugee agency says more than 3000000 people have left to claim to escape the fighting. ukrainian children are becoming refugees at a rate of one per 2nd. that's almost one and a half 1000000 children total. since the war began nearly 3 weeks ago, jewelry senior media and communication officer and spokesperson at the i o m

regional office, he's joining us from moldova by skype. baker, to happy with us, or on al jazeera, what kind of risks and problems are these children facing? they're facing risk and problems like they've never faced in their lives for like no child should have to face. they've been under fire. they've been sheltering a basement. they'd be making long treason, col, journeys doesn't hungry, not the tired. and they get to a strange place where there's thousands of people milling around and they are just, kids are going to be confused. they're going to be emotional. they going to be distraught for, for a long time. and what's really apparent when you're on the borders is a composition of families. once they cross the borders, because the men are all having to go back in to ukraine. so you see mothers that have become within a space of a few seconds, a few meters mothers become refugees, and children become refugees and they become essentially fatherless. innocent space of a few seconds that must be master trauma. for children,

let alone that the material comforts that, that are lacking. what's going on inside this more minds must be hugely emotional. no one to talk to you about that because we were talking to our correspond as it began on he's been a been in is up patricia at one of the reception centers from migrants have been heading from places like madea, pollen. so on. there's a lot of other physical stuff in supplies that people locally are giving to, to the refugees there. but the psychological element is something that has to be central to all of this, doesn't it? and as you say, the kind of trauma that the children could be facing could really affect them very, very. and in tremendous ways. how do you deal with that? well it starts that the know what they're doing and, and they, they build programs that to take care of this long, long term. and we do build this into all the programming that the as psychological support, particularly for children. and it is, it's huge for us and, and also for, for that, for the mothers who has the same taken on the role of caring for an entire family.

an overnight. what's also essential is to think about the protection of people leaving that ukraine and the people in, in ukraine as well when that when they're, when they become successful, accessible to us, the people leaving out ukraine are very susceptible to brad to predators, to human traffickers needed to children to, to abduction and we will try to make, you know, be as yours and can that get good safe passage for people, for example, in where i am now in moldova, along with you and hcr and, and the government concerned in both germania, moldova, i went and started on the record transfer of migrants, sending buses from romania right to the south, south western books or eastern border with ukraine and bringing people on to people today and the most fundable on buses. whether we can be sure that it is safe and get into romania where they are ongoing and after the humanitarian needs can be taken care of. the number of refugees that have been having out of you train are, are breathtaking their lives so significant. and is there

a concern that the countries that they're going to like poland for example, and moldova are going to get to a point where they simply can't cope and they can't take anymore what we helped us look at atlanta. that's why lily the united nations, as, as, as launched to 1700000000 appealed yet to help me to just provide all the humanitarian needs of people will, will lead had certainly i read that moldova, for example, which is a small, impoverished country. just $2500000.00 people is already spending a $1000000.00 a day that's over money on the refugee effort. so of course international solidarity is massively needed when they ain't children at least $1.00 and $8.00 children in moldova. now is a refugee every 8 child. he see is a refugee and what's the sanction letting for all of us? not just think that that, that the big humanitarian picture and, and a millions of billions of dollars that are needed. it's what we can do as individuals. and under the main thing is to extend solidarity and kindness to these new figures who are going to be writing all our communities across europe and

across the world. those 2 essential things, solidarity and kindness really will go a long way to laurie. thank you very much. and for being with us and al jazeera, so let's bring you some of the days. other news, russia says the u. s. has guaranteed it will be able to trade with iran as part of an ongoing attempt to save the 2015 nuclear deal. foreign minister, 2nd love of says the cremeans received a written guarantee. the economic sanctions in moscow will not impede its ability to trade with iran has been meeting his iranian counterpart in the russian capital, france, germany, and button. i said a series of last minute russian demands and its invasion of ukraine. but the whole deal at risk of being to al jazeera dosage a body. he's joining us now live from moscow. one of the headlines from this meeting dawson, well, according to the russian foreign minister, certainly love rob, they have now and gotten

a written guarantee that has been written in to the and nuclear deal of 2015. that once that is reinstated, then at the trade issues that russia will have around iran's nuclear program that will not be affected by the sanctions this countries under, from the united states. this was something that the russian foreign minister raised on march 5th, saying that the russians want to know for sure that the americas will not hinder russia's relationship with iran when it comes to the future of that very important nuclear job. and the iranian foreign minister for his part also reiterated that the americans have been just playing games and buying time. there is a final draft of the, a 2015 nuclear deal on the table in vienna. and there was a sudden pause, according to the a hi representative of the european union. joseph ral on friday, march 11th,

saying that they were going to have a break because of external factors. now, the american states, because of russian demands the russians now saying we have actually gotten their written guarantees that we were asking for. it is really the americans who are blaming us in the buying time because they can't make a decision. so it's a very significant point in the nuclear negotiations that have been ongoing for the past 11 months. and now the rains and the russians seeming very united in their stands and putting the pressure and owners back on the u. s. government as to what will happen next in the last couple of years when we've been reporting on, on this iranian nuclear deal, it's been predominantly the dynamic between the u. s. and iran that we've, we've been covering as well as other countries. but why is russia so important for to run on this? do well, russia is an ally of iran, and they have been for many, many years. and there could see clearly involved in iran's nuclear program and

activities in their civil nuclear program. since the 19 ninety's, they had an agreement to help build their new nerd bushera nuclear power plant and south of iran. and that plant was finally completed with the help of the russians in 2011 and is now providing a electricity on ron's power grid. and they've also signed further agreements to expand that we share a power plants. and that's one of the main reasons that russia has been very much involved. also, russia was responsible under the 2015 nuclear deal to take care of a certain number of technical ada compliance. parts are on to do these side of iranians. it, for example, at the excess in which uranium that iran was having in the country above a certain level that they were allowed to have under the deal was being shipped out to russia. and so it's certainly a very crucial component in terms of iran, complying with the technical aspects of that nuclear deal, and therefore they are very much involved in how and how it moves forward and what

happens to it door. so thank you very much. doses are boring talking to us from moscow. what a shampoo says an english iranian aid worker detained in iran has hotter u. k. passport returned nazarene zachary ratcliffe was arrested in toronto in 2016 and convicted of plotting to overthrow the government. she was jailed for 5 years. last april, a court sentenced her to another human prison on other charges. her husband went on hunger strike in october, but after she lost her latest appeal, she and her family have always denied the allegations against her. by some prosecutors of his seeking to the extent alexey navarro, these prison sentence for another 13 years for fraud and criminal and critic is already serving 2 years in jail for parole. violations related to charges, he says aren't trumped up anti war protests cold by the anti corruption campaign or a few days ago or broken up. russian police arrested several people a ban on

his jobs in some indian classrooms has been up held by the high court. the court said, wearing head scarves is not an essential religious practice of islam. the original band by schools. and the kinetic estate, sparked a wave of protests which force colleges to close for 3 days in february and is muslim minority. there's it violates their religious whites. elizabeth put on them as in new delhi, and she says that our concerns, this might set a precedent. they came to this decision after 11 hearings off the students in the district, the district cannot called do people challenge. and this issue arose when just one principal and one college and just see awesome awesome students, not with his scave, but that was followed soon by other colleges and to be and then colleges in more districts income nashika. now the students were arguing that there was no law in india, which prohibits them from wearing heads because in fact,

the indian constitution, which allowed religious freedom that the right to where it is protected. but the cut not the government was arguing that educational institutions have the right to make up these rules. and today come nautica as advocates. general, that is, the state lawyer said that the judgment shows that institutional discipline has prevailed over individual choice, the local administration, and to be has asked people not to protest the high court decision, but also not to calibration. and the students, lawyers have said that they will be taking this. they will be challenging the judgment by going to in the top course, the supreme court here in new delhi, there are concerns, of course, at the judgment sets a precedent, especially in other states which have governed by the him, the nationalist lot of the jump, the party like cut, nautica, canada says, advocate general, said after the decision that it is

a paradigm shift in the interpretation of the article of the constitution. article $25.00, which pertains to religious freedom. the right religious freedom philosophy lies is a lawyer at the supreme court of india. and carla hi, coach, he's joining us from coach he in india. thank you very much. indeed for being with us ma'am. it's being described as a paradigm shift. what's your view of this willing? yes, it's an unfortunate d, i would think are not only for muslim women in india. ah, but all of us will believe in the political principles of our justice and fairness and big value be, and the constitutional principles off, you know, free speech and non screwed nation. it's an unfortunate judgement witness, which has come from the kinetic a high called it while it's brought to political principles than it is also. why late of, of radius provisions in the constitution. the constitution hasn't been guarantees the right to free speech. it guarantees a right to play against non discrimination. it guarantees the right to freedom of

religion as well. and it does, in fact, laws a classic and continues to be a classic case of biscuit nation, which is prohibited by articles 14 and have been of the constitution. there is also a case of intersection or destination because muslim women are discriminated on the base of 2 identity straight. we see that they are being discriminated excluded from classrooms not allowed to enter the school campuses because of the muslim identity on the one hand. and the same treatment is being extended to them because also all their up that identity as a female. as a muslim woman, the food we see that it, it is intersection of bodies identities on the basis of gender, as well as on the basis of religion that is constituting the he jam band, as we call it. and this is plainly unconstitutional at the face of it. and this is a law in law and going to the constitution. i think the answer is crystal clear. unfortunately, the hi could did not to capture the essence of the problem. and i was likely mischaracterizing the issue, i would think that i could the side as an issue of whether it is an essential part

of part of is lumnick religion will not when it would have actually characterise the issue as a question of discrimination. to characterize this issue as a questionable estimation, you will see that this blanket ah, a ban, and this, this, this bank cannot, i'd be saved way any of the potions of the constitution. if i had a son at the list, this was relieved. forgive me for interrupting, but i wanted to ask you about how the, what the potential outcome of this could be because it misses at the moment i think restricted to one particular state. but what do you the questions have already been asked about whether or not this sets a precedent they could sweep across the country? how concerned are you about that? yeah, extremely concerned about that. it's already because if you look at the context, we will see that the moment to certain colleges and schools in canada got one state in south india, have started having the band and have started telling within students that you cannot come to the classrooms by reading that a job, you'll see that in various other states and not only in connecticut,

but in wages other in states. schools have in fact started doing the same practice . they have orderly and will believe, stole the students that you cannot coming by that in the he job. so i see, i see that this can though lemon pertaining to this trend and knowledge. the problem is that this practice has got an endorsement from a constitutional court. it is, it is been in those to by a state title. of course, it will be taken up to the supreme court and will break that in, but i am extremely a what eat and are concerned about the feet of muslim women in indiana and how, how thought on how quickly this will spread as a trend i want to ask you about that because i'm how concerned are you that this might give rise to action within the school rooms themselves? if, if there is this ruling that exists and some women intend to defy it, we have seen protests for both foreign against, abound in the past. how could you think this could develop a on the ground as it were?

this isn't a significant question and on the ground it is extremely well attain. it will attain buckley because the handle in the right thing on the one hand is trying to peddle this falls, mclelland's the trying to increase the sector and shaws with jobs. so we've seen octo the heat up controversy. we've seen gl students up presumably forced by the right wing, political activist and political leaders. they have been forced to wear the south franchise and they have been coming to the classrooms as a symbol of the hebrew might or whatever you, whichever way you will understand it. and then that is as far as equivalence being peddled, saying that if you want to wear the job, if that is the essential part of your religion, then we will waive saffron johnson, trying to make a binary among students and trying to, trying to create a divide among students and breaking their solidarity as a whole. we've also seen in certain classrooms in certain, asked was, what schools have done is to segregate the muslim, what does it reminds me is in fact and what this might to remind

a lot of our audience is the keys, lockdown versus board of education. the 2nd key segregation case from the united states, but said that segregation of black and white students is illegal in public schools . in fact, the connecticut keys was an opportunity for the, for the court to have something like a brown a moment where did just unfortunately failed and incentive of philosophy. raj were very grateful to you for joining us on al jazeera mom. thank you very much. indeed for your time and the number of co 19 infections in china doubled on tuesday as it faces its biggest outbreak. since the start of the pandemic, alf authorities reported more than $5000.00 cases in the past 24 hours. under china's 0 tolerance policy. authorities have banned the 24000000 people living in julian province from leaving the region all travelling to all the cities. and still in court as overturned, a landmark of ruling requiring the environment minister, protect children against climate change. the original class action was pursued by
