12:05 am
eastern ukraine. wishful thinking perhaps. but there's any doors or the killing of them. the units of the people's militia that an extra public continued to compressed in sacramento merrier poll. the general advance from the east of the northern and western direction was up to 800 meters. the divisions of the russian on forces are continuing offensive operations. 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 a whole al jazeera moving around con, went to an apartment block in the capital case that was hit by russian forces earlier and spoke to one of the residents. this is where it's like to be inside one of the apartments in this bombed building. it happened in the early hours of the morning. besides your child's remarks, sir, is the kid that normally lives here. she's actually been evacuated, but you can see the windows, the power, the bloss blue, the windows,
12:06 am
and they've actually managed to tidy up a lot of the gloss, get it all out a lot. there. the kids, books and things. and now i see on the balcony, there's still a lot of damage here. this is watches law who lives here by slip didn't tell us what happened in the morning. 05 for. busy early in the morning our we a listener, very big boom and and i a smell of full gun powder and we flippant on corridor. i like every 79 nights and i'm a jump on this place. and so absolutely the damage her room mo, with broken window glass all the way. and i, it was very, i was very afraid and, but i try, it will be in no, absolutely. in calm. yeah. your claim. yeah. and her
12:07 am
because i understand my girlfriend too was very afraid and old master staring. and i'm must be clue claim, and i'm starting to, oh, call it to our thinks staff for, for me going out to the street or a traumatic experience. you'd now you said that you've been sleeping in the corridor rather than the bedroom. yeah. were you told to do that or is this something you felt you had? oh, it was slip in every room. bonbon camer happen every time because we are absolutely. it was close to his shoes. her with her. our m. o baggage for south, for samson. yeah. well, it's lucky,
12:08 am
but 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. the prime minister's opponents, lavinia, and the czech republic, her in keith, to show solidarity with its people, even as a russian shelling hits the capital that the 1st foreign leaders to visit ukraine since last month's invasion. the 3 said they wanted to express the european union's unequivocal support during talks with president vladimir zalinski. it's unclear whether the trip was sanctioned by other members of the $27.00 nation block. a senior ukrainian government official says some 29000 people were evacuated from different cities through american military and corridors on tuesday. around $20000.00 of them left mary paul along a corridor extending just over 260 kilometers to separation, which is in ukrainian. hel territory and ukraine's deputy prime minister said a convoy with supplies for mary. apple was stuck in nearby. betty answered,
12:09 am
i said vague has more from parisha. when they get here, they are closed. they are toys, given food. and here you can see donations from people from ordering ukrainians, making a massive effort to try to welcome these people that have escaped from mario full. but if not just medical, that they have escaped from the surrounding areas that is fighting taking place. and the people that we of ukraine and now again, they've been forced to leave. but the ukranian authority is saying that 2000 cause again have left married. but that's not enough. the city has around 400000 people that has been seized by the russian 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 they're trying to get a and to doesn't cause as far as the ukrainians are concerned,
12:10 am
isn't enough. a coastal result of a death is preparing for an imminent attack. the city streets aligned with hundreds of thousands of sandbags made by residence who stayed there to help boast to defenses against advancing russian troops. what other means has war from death? president vladimir zaleski has warned several times that russia is getting ready to attack odessa and certainly people here have taken that warning seriously. coming into this city, they're 45 checkpoints that you have to go through with a really heavy security and then all over the city, what you would see is these kinds of road blocks. a lot of sandbags everywhere seems like half of the population maybe has gone away because this is a coastal resort. it's on the black sea and is actually considered the jewel of the black sea. this is the opera house, and it's the crown of odessa. odessa is
12:11 am
a city that has a lot of russian investment is the city where a lot of russian come on holiday. the city that has openly showed support to russia in the past. after the annexation in chrome in 2014, there were deadly rise between 4 russians and pro ukrainians and which 40 people died. well, whenever you look, you will see the ukrainian colors. you will hear ukrainian music. perhaps people here have been shocked of what they've seen. the city, the message coming out from a desk at the moment from what we see is that they're supporting ukraine and that could bring them punishment. jane shows a senior fellow of the estonian per foreign policy institute at the international center for defense and security. he joins us now by skype from talon. thank you very much. deeper for being with us. just on the, on the talk sir, to dave negotiations that the senior ukrainian official said there was certainly room for compromise of those talks yet. you mean the, do you think the way the war has gone so far for russia, mike mean,
12:12 am
there's also room for compromise on the russian side. so father hasn't been any indication of that. so we will, we will have to see you. crane is doing, it's best to show that it is reasonable and it is interested in a diplomatic solution, but it's red lines are very clear and russians minimal conditions across all of them. so what do you make so far? the tax on keith, do you see them as a, as a thank you, time morale, you think it's down to something i don't think it. well, let's understand that russia's initial strategy, which was a big scrape type strategy with expectations of rapid gains and rapid ukrainian dislocation and collapse that that has failed. hm. it has failed at many levels. it's exposed, not as exposed very serious problems of coordination with training
12:13 am
of logistics, of planning on the part of the russian army and to some who don't know ukraine to many in the west. you don't know, ukraine, obviously, ukraine's cohesion and resilience flexibility. inventiveness has come as a surprise. and so what has happened is that the russians are now altering that strategy and 2 significant ways. first of their regrouping the strengthening logistic system and where they have done that, particularly in the east, they are making slow grounding, incremental progress. and secondly, they a seat and determined if necessary, to turn ukraine into another, syria, they are pummeling cities and reducing them to rebel. they are reducing ukrainians to destitution. you have covered some of this. all of this in the hope of simply exhausting bludgeoning people into submission and the end for joining
12:14 am
their ukrainian state into submission. so that's where we are now, this is not over by any means. so when you it, the aid to zaleski was saying that it might be over by made you think that was a wishful thinking rather than any kind of realistic scenario. there's a premise here what you, what so let's to settle along to the west is tonight is we know you are not going to fight russia directly. so give us the tools, give us everything we need and we will be able to code. we will be able to hold on the response of from the west at some levels has been very impressive. but others, it's been extremely belated and some of it is hardly. there is still a lot that you bring critically needs are not getting just briefly on in the situation in this around a desa. how important will it be for the russians to try and capture mc alive
12:15 am
before moving on to odessa? and what are the difficulties of the will then to 2 significant city so far and they're just both further east, but also in the southern regions of the country. and what they have taken over, they're having difficulty holding. it's one thing to place. another thing to hold it against an extremely hostile, well mobilized population. so it's hard to say at this stage and the anticipated amphibious assault on the south, the really not materialized summer, even suggesting that the operation on tessa is a faint. it's a way of diverting forces against more significant efforts in part against care, but also against the bulk of the ukrainian armed forces that are still deployed
12:16 am
opposite done. yes, lou hans, which some suggest could face a risk of encirclement. and if that, if that comes about how that can move things forward, very impressively for the russians. so you have to take into account the whole picture and it changes very fast. thank you very much for sharing your thinking. like coming up on this news hour from london, a russian journalist, too crashed alive news program to protest against the war is fined for organizing an unauthorized public event. and the you announces its strongest ever sanctions on russia, but we'll still allow the purchase of oil and gas. ah, fox news network in the us says, one of its cameramen and a producer have been killed,
12:17 am
close to the ukrainian capital. keep the crew were in the field filming when their vehicle was hit by artillery, fire yourself ski and alexandra cushy nova. we're traveling with reporter benjamin hall who is being treated in hospital for his injuries. i caught in moscow's find a journalist, 30000 roubles, which is 200 reading stop the war behind the news. read it. she is a senior editor at the state news platform channel one general festival from europe, which marina of john cooper and editor at the state controlled channel. one was a t laugher, interrupting this line, bulletins, holding up a sign that read stop the war. you had to have a better feel of that. i want to thank you for and for they support my friends and colleagues. these were uneasy days of my life because i spent 2 days without sleep . interrogation lasted for more than 14 hours, was not allowed to contact my relatives or provided with any judicial help. i was in a rather tough situation. i'll speak more to morrow,
12:18 am
i just need to rest to day. the journalist who says her father is ukrainian, and mother russian received a $280.00 fine disposition bruce, who took mccraney the crystal clean. she left this message prior to the protocol. as soon as possible, what is currently happening in ukraine as crime? russia is a country aggressor or responsibility for this aggression lies on the conscience of one person. let a me a puritan thing. well, unfortunately, for the last several years i worked at channel one promoting kremlin propaganda and for that i am very ashamed right now the new i am ashamed that i allowed lies to be told from t v screens just that i allowed russian people to be zombified of the journalist pled not guilty to the charge of organizing an unauthorized public event. it's unclear whether she will face worse consequences and other charges for anti war protests has been met with global support. french president emanuel micron has offered the journalist assign you have a look at that
12:19 am
n t e n. while the ukranian president of thanked her for her actions him to avoid it says, i am grateful to those russians who do not stop trying to convey the truth. talk to those who fight this information and tell the truth, real factory to their friends under the forms and personally to the woman who entered the studio of channel warmed with a post the against the wall by the kremlin, called her protest, a form of hooliganism. protest like these in moscow serving as a stork example of how the country is cracking down on free speaking. what we're seeing right now is that how to struck rollback freedoms in russia and the russian lawmakers very nice believe adopted new legislation. both installing a criminal palo fees, the an administrative panel like fines, or what they call discrediting activity use of russian military forces. but
12:20 am
also for knowingly just submitting fake information about russian military action. the risk to stand up and speak out with just as heavy as the dual for some in staying silent, chilling wolf, i was just the european union has expanded its sanctions on russia further aiming to tighten loopholes, including more restrictions on crypto currencies before from cruise back on investments in the russian energy sector, but does not prevent countries buying oil and gas brock as also buying the importing of steel and on products affecting an estimated 3 point $6000000000.00 worth of goods. and european companies are now prohibited from exporting luxury items worth more than $330.00 to russia, or cause worth more than $55000.00. that's the strongest package of sanctions ever adopted by. do you and union need history?
12:21 am
that's or history court decision will have more than 600 russian people being targeted by those sanctions. you will have a large part of the financial system being targeted by those sanctions. you will have new ban on some exploitation like the luxury goods. and we, we, we do all to the russian state the most favored nation, close within the world trade organization. russia has quit europe leading human rights watchdog. the council of europe preempting moscow's possible expulsion as foreign ministries also announced personal sanctions on 13 us officials, including president joe biden, which banned them from travelling to russia. that is also features the secretary of state, the defense secretary, the white house press secretary and the former presidential candidate henry clinton . it's been announced that you as president joe biden will travel to brussels next week to meet nato and your leaders. president barton is also signed
12:22 am
a bill setting aside setting would $6000000000.00 if humanitarian military and economic assistance for ukraine 8 is attached to a one and a half trillion dollar annual spending bill. white house correspondent can be hunk it has no. oh no. is that there are really going to be kind of 2 baskets that this money is going to be allocated in. one will be security and the other will be more humanitarian in terms of security. the president was very clear. he said that this would be so that the people of ukraine would have the tools they need to defend themselves. and then with respect to the humanitarian assistance, it would be for very practical things, just soap and drinking water and blankets and, and so that the refugee sort of crisis centers that many of the people fleeing and i, and heading to whether be ukraine or a neighboring countries that they can be round top in terms of their ability to
12:23 am
respond to this crisis. but in terms of the real details, how much money is going to each sort of allocation? there really were some big question mark. so we're now looking ahead to wednesday when the u. s. president has promised that he will be giving more specific detail. ukraine's president received a standing ovation earlier as he addressed candidates parliament. ah, an emotional video address for them is lensky appealed for more support in the fight against russia, including a no fly zone. he told parliament ukrainians are going through hell because of russian bombing. his speech followed canadian prime minister, just intruder announcing new sanctions on 15. russian officials is not sure if we will need to do more to stop fresh and protect ukraine. and by doing that to protect you from the russian print, their destroying everything. memorial complex law schools, hospitals, housing complex of them will. yeah. they have already killed 97 ukrainian children
12:24 am

12:25 am
natal open doors policy doesn't necessarily mean that the doors are open for ukraine, right? and this is very sad. we are not hiding, that's a weeks expected to be in a different way. but this is how it is. and this is what takes it. all right now to realize that we need to defend our so by ourselves. but with your help with any other possible coalitions and possible cooperation, you'd be that the council, european urgency discussion was anything concrete. doesn't concrete come out about? well, we expect threat. what we expelled or russia from these are going to zation violating the international law and committed war crimes. and we've been waiting for that for quite a long time. i'm sure if it happened earlier, it could prevents low to death and and the more but
