1:04 pm
what could i be? i got out of the city central district with bonds and destruction. we lost her house. so now we're leaving with our children. were still in shock and fearful russian forces charged into the port city. a place where weeks of shilling had camped about 400000 people hostage local authority. se moscow's attacks have cut electricity, supplies, heating, and water. russia denies its targeting civilians. yeah. he freed us from education, but airstrikes have hid civilian infrastructure like the city school. and recently a theater where people were taking refuge from bombings amid those ravaged neighborhoods. survivors say wife will never be the same. a makeshift kitchen is all that's left of this woman's home and some no longer have the energy or will to
1:05 pm
leave. she just east shift position muscle wizard, wiley, the city now after what we've been through, we've had difficult days with bombing hunger and cold weather. as you can see, our neighbourhood is destroyed. mutual, sa, as old lives are left behind. some have found shelter and local schools with another humanitarian crisis unfolding. katya locus of the young al jazeera or rob mcbride, joins us now live from live in the west of ukraine. rob mario, paul, very much in the spotlight today. what are we hearing about the situation there? yeah it is the deteriorating situation in mary opal that is, is still the focus this sunday and that with the latest earth, the latest crisis seeming to be of this cart college where the authorities there say that 400 people were sheltering or it was a tactic collapse and we're still waiting to see just what the situation is. there
1:06 pm
are whether there are survivors. there are people trapped under the rubble and zone . of course, this comes on top of the continuing tragedy of the theatre, which days ago now at was at the targeted complete the collapse, the authorities say was providing shelter for more than a 1000 people. we know that a number of people have been pulled out her, but it remains unclear about the fate of any other people who may well still be under the rubble and the problems. say the authorities in mario palace. they simply can't get close to this place because of the ongoing fears, fighting in the surrounding streets. and so it remains the focus. there are colleagues from al jazeera arabic, a team, and from there they have there been given access by the russians to get into the city to see for themselves the conditions. they've also been seeing work at the check points that are surround at the city where people are being allowed to leave the through humanitarian corridors. but the russian soldiers are checking that they
1:07 pm
are civilians instead of being soldiers or, or fighters. i bet the big concern is as people can come out of trying to get humana, terry, an aide in. and after the aid organizations for the at the authorities in maryville, that is a real concern because there simply isn't enough humanitarian aid coming into the city. we are seeing of, of pictures and video being released by the russian side ship pictures of the soldiers of chechen soldiers and so on, helping civilians passing out some aid. but clearly, if a humanitarian developing humanitarian crisis like this is to be dealt with this, it has to be simply far more shantarian help getting it. all right, thanks so much, rob mc ride there. now the front line, city of hard give, has been continuously targeted since the start of the war. there's a desperate search for survivors. the ruins of buildings. i said bag reports from
1:08 pm
ne ukraine. well, this is one, the worst hitch areas of hurricane. the 2nd largest city in ukraine had a population of 1500000 that's been drastically reduced because many people have left. now this to the left of me here was a shopping mall. just take a look at that. now. this city has been pounded by the russians with air strikes, shelling and artillery, and were standing right now was the center of the city. and you can just see that there's complete and utter destruction, devastation now. but there's a feeling that the russians thought that they could take this city without too much resistance, but they were forced out and as a feeling by some head that now the russians are punishing. this city have to be careful here because the temperatures are well below 0, the still ice on the floor. this craters along here, these cars here have all been destroyed and damaged a bit further up. or you can see the burn tank cars that were damaged with
1:09 pm
the shelling guntee artillery and even was we've been here. we've heard loud thumps . i'm not sure if you can hear that. now that's have your tillery filing that filing that's going. gone all day and all night, and if you look a lot wrong along the horizon, you can see smoke rising from the heavy fighting that's taking place. now the russians pardoning the city really heavily for the last 2 weeks, but the ukranian forces are still holding out and hoping that they can keep the russians act. and it's like the across the east of the country with the russians, a fighting on multiple fronts. but i just want you to take in some more of the devastation, destruction that has taken place here in the center of her keith. you can see cause buried in the rebel. when the buildings have collapsed on it. even the trees here destroyed and burned tight. it's really something we're in the center of car
1:10 pm
thief. the 2nd largest city with the ukranian forces are still managing to keep the russians out. russia says it's once again used hypersonic missiles to attack ukraine. the defense ministry said it hit military facilities. one of the targets was reportedly an armored vehicle repass site, the town of machine. russia said it 5 cruise missiles from the black sea. and didn't nikolai of a fuel depos destroyed by high precision missiles fired from the caspian sea and crimea. russia also says its destroy the military training center and of roche, where foreign mercenaries are based on the hypersonic dagger. mis sales destroyed their large fuel, depos, used by ukraine's armed forces near the village of constantinople. the main supplies for the green army being in the south were carried out there. the high precision miss. i live struck the training center for the great special forces.
1:11 pm
their foreign mercenaries were based on. so what exactly is a hypersonic miss ireland? why should moscow start using it now? well known in russia as fin, joel or dagger missiles there several times faster than the speed of sound, which makes them harder to detect and nearly impossible to intercept miss how's a part of an array of advanced weaponry? russia unveiled in 2018 bernard smith is in moscow. so what else is the russian defense mystery sang bernard. though russia's defense ministry saying it used the kin jour hypersonic missile for a 2nd time. it was targeting, particularly it says, a fuel storage site in the south. there's no way of independently verifying this. there's a bit of an arms race on between the united states, russia and china over these hypersonic massage,
1:12 pm
meaning that they fly at 5 times the speed of sound. so russia says use them for a 2nd day. it also said it is and destroyed and underground missile storage site on saturday with these kindle missiles. now the cranes confirmed that that place was targeted, although the cancer say what type of missile it to was hit with. and russia says, yes, it launched a cruise missiles from the black and caspian c at targets in ukraine. all right, thanks so much bernard smith there plenty more still ahead on the news out including awaiting collection and kids, but it's too dangerous for the parents of these babies to get to them fighting for the right to continue their education. we may be indian students have been forced to return from the crime. and in school there's a new car out and found the thought of the formula one season. and i will be here
1:13 pm
with that story. ah, now people in odessa had a relatively calm night after recent russian shutting, although some sirens could still be heard. the southern port city is bracing for an assault is ukraine's 3rd largest and home to more than a 1000000 people. will the data is on the black sea coast and hosts the ukranian navies headquarters, which moved there after russia and next the crime here in 2014. it handles around 65 percent of ukrainian c cargo. if russia were to cesar that it will effectively cut off ukraine from overseas tre, the military aid spring. and now hannah shallow. in odessa, she's the director of the security programs at the cranium prison. a think tank good to have you with us. so 1st of all,
1:14 pm
let me get your analysis on the military situation facing odessa. is it just a matter of time before it falls, or do you believe it can hold out? no, well, it is not such an easy task since our just word russian situation because many reasons. first of all, to have a real assault against death. but you need to control the rules from, pardon me. it's feel that you're talking about 400 kilometers on that. the columns of your soul live on a way and you saw from daily news, how make a life is really keep the light on the fence over there than you. and if you need to, you be ready for the maritime fold operations. what is not so easy considering the you're quite a warm beach lie and with a proper protection that we now love the air defense, all definitely that we all have been building for the last 3 weeks. quite an attractively too well. not speaking about that,
1:15 pm
my manager said that it was as easy a few for ukrainian navy. so you have all the forces being located here and the territorial defense all over the scene. prepare, it will get things done. if not, if more village the russian would be to take or just shall around that. because if you 40 pounds, i have a sense not own for the meeting, for maybe not only in the pray, but in russia and many other countries who be quite a blow out for them in terms of the national center to the rock. then let me jump in and ask the question, to what extent does the faith of a data then rely on what happens in other places, particularly in clive, it really significantly rely on even that if you more than 100 kilometer, that will make alive and i'll just, but that is the main for our supply for the washing forces. you see that one of the main problem that russians have on the north is the problem with the supplier. i mean, you should and cool if you go to that stuff let from keith know that the 500 kilometers
1:16 pm
as the secretary is controlled by the ukrainian or russian forces. i'm not even close to the only way for them to supply any type of operation on if you can control the landlines between crania. busy but this is where it gets interesting. explain this to us. why are we, why should we be so much focused on the russian ability to supply the push for data from the north? when, of course, they can attack from the see something that a lot of people in odessa are very worried about right? yes, up, let me we were in call from the shouting that have i'm from to see. but try to imagine by the lighting just to see a whole that's about solver, that's just sorts of kilometers 30 kilometers of the beaches and you need to control all of them. and you need to land you for the cds of why me and how many of the personnel of the soldiers you need to be for to control receiving where you
1:17 pm
will definitely have plenty of the military operations in the 3 laws, the earth. so you need several thousands of people, at least to start the operations. last, you need a very heavy shadowing. you depress the earth, and then it just horrible. become very close to the cause. because odessa, harper is very open and the range what you can see and you can control the why to quite a long and wide. so in this way, you can not com unexpectedly. we will see the sheets coming. got 22 miles. now i think people already standing people in odessa often standing looking at the coast with their binoculars. aren't they? watching the russian ship movements? let's talk about the importance of a death. a death is a ports account for something like 70 percent of ukrainian imports and exports, right. or the loss of a desa mean for the ukrainian economy?
1:18 pm
definitely so radically we can arrange the export by the way, will your p and union member see sounds ruled all vall that complete the entire try to imagine, for example, how much of the grain you can that she by won the off cargo. she and what you can do by the way away that's completely uncomfortable and something that you can not compare but to our economy is definitely one important thing to hear. but also just to talk from the side and re ukraine, a landlord that would be very dangerous. not only for you pray, but for the whole black sea, because in the way the russian racial will be controlling at the top of the black sea and many other countries will be media track as well. i came across an interesting survey. this was from september, obviously before the war began, and it showed something like 68 percent of a death residence agreed with vladimir putin statement that russia ukraine,
1:19 pm
the one people and only a 5th of them saw their future in europe. now, after this war has began, do we have an idea of how the sentiment may have changed and what is a very dive, a city with a very diverse history. i think we can put it that way. right? a very diverse population. honestly, i will be really interesting. what is your date of where he's come from? because i'm working with a group of soldiers for all the years. we are making the research and they never seen such high numbers of 68th. never be off the 2014 for sure. just yesterday on the shoulder, due process fury on top of your grade. they published their research of the last week and it is 90 percent. oh wow. that's a citizen will agree that it is a war, russia against you frame it is around 75 percent were completely sure in the actions of the president of the local authorities and trust to the armed forces as
1:20 pm
90 percent plus the support of what is happening to me and how, you know, it depends on, i would like to fight against russia. so you said to me that even within the last we, we, we have a tremendous change in the minds of many local, broad to be for our significant change. started in 2014 because while a lot of local school, what's happened with that? yes, it was like a red flag that you don't want to leave in the same condition. we don't want something here. and even that we rushed to the language story. kelly, as you sat because we were part of the russian apply and multi ethnic c. i did. there were just no conditions to study ukrainian in the seating the night night. for example. that's why people felt some connection with the classical russian culture of the night. and century, but in connection with the russian culture, $900.00 century, it's not the same as supporting family. and as we took action again,
1:21 pm
thank you so much for sharing your insight and your research with us. good to talk to you now in care of dozens of babies born to sarah, good saw waiting to be collected from a makeshift nursery, their parents either unable to travel or unwilling to risk the journey. babies sheltering in the basement, they need constant care. and since many nurses cannot return to their destroyed homes, they sleep and work their muscle. we have very well equipped rooms to provide comfort for children. that is everything for them to be safe and for them to be taken care of. but now we are staying here in this basement to preserve ours and the babies lives there, hiding here from the bombing and this horrible misery. the war in ukraine is forced nearly 18000 medical students to return home to india. they filed a petition in the supreme court asking government to allow the transfer to indian
1:22 pm
colleges. students. fines is highlighted in the lack of medical colleges. if elizabeth per on them reports from pradesh, you couldn't. you couldn't in women and children, much young sharma shows videos of him and his fellow students fleeing the russian bombing of car cave. the 20 year old was in his 1st year of medical school in the east and ukrainian city. he's one of nearly 800000 indian medical students evacuated from ukraine since the russian invasion began my last year in the apartment. beg him and government. i passed the entrance exam last year, but i didn't have enough marks to go to government college here because they cut off for climate. so very high. so the better option for me was to go overseas with michael shanks just as monica an entre. but he said they were forced to study overseas with fees, much cheaper. their families says they're paying half the amount of fees in ukraine than they would. and private colleges in india,
1:23 pm
online classes have begun for the sisters and some others. but they're not ideal. or lame when it go on yankee. and the problem with online is that we need a lot of practical experience, which we aren't able to do. we are a 3rd year student and practical. it's very important and the 3rd year. so it's difficult the return of the students from ukraine is again putting the spotlight on the lack of medical colleges in india. the number of seats available for medical education in india is far less to the number of students who leave school with the hope of becoming doctors or the 1600000. who did the entrance exam last year on the 88000 and made it into the 562 medical colleges from the country. given the shortage private colleges charge, hefty fees for the much sought after spaces and receive large donations from students, families, public health experts, blame and lack of government investment and health care. and what they call the
1:24 pm
medical council of india's arbitrary regulations to set up colleges. but the, it was a bona fide the intent to protect standards, as they said over there, it was to protect some interests of people who are running private medical colleges . i cannot really say, however, that did result in a smaller number of medical colleges and also clustering of medical colleges in the 4th southern states and to west and indian states. prime minister that ends morty, blamed previous governments for the lack of colleges and said his administration will increase the number. as students who returned from ukraine appealed to the government to find a way for them to continue their studies at home. some health experts say it's an ideal opportunity for india to tackle the dr. shortage. elizabeth per item al jazeera, great, an order for this. like, you know, somalia is suffering, it's worth drought in 40 years. more than half a 1000000 people,
1:25 pm
i've left their homes to seek food and water because of their livestock of dying, or they're unable to grow crops. malcolm web joins us now from margaret tissue. so malcolm, the 1st obvious question, why are so many people dying of hunger without apparently enough aid from the international community? well, there are several reasons. first, he just mentioned this almost unprecedented scale of the drought to the south of where we are here in mogadishu. and along the banks and in the basin of chevrolet and the rivers, people normally grace and cross sale. so heard some livestock for just in the last couple of months, the last water in the bottom of the river that has disappeared, that completely dry recent weeks, many people started walking from the many of come here to the capital market issue
1:26 pm
. we visited one of the settlements that just weekend just frog up to some of the people that let's take a look at that story here. hussein amid says when she planted her last handful of seeds on a farm. rain never came with no food left. she started to make her way here, somali as capital margaret issue with her 4 children, their journey began on the back of a truck. then things got worse. not about the truck driver said, this is my last stop. you can continue on your own to mortgage issue. we sat down under a tree, my 2 babies were in bad condition because of hunger and thirst. then all of the sudden i found they had white eyes. they had died. there was a lady living there who helped me to bury them by the roadside raquira and her 2 surviving children are among a rapidly growing number of people who are now staying in camps like this on the
1:27 pm
outskirts of the city. most of the people here walked for more than a week to get here, the caird, whatever they could, top orleans and sheets, that's what they've made, that shelters out of the more than a 1000 people living in this settlement. and all of these shelters have sprung up within the last 4 weeks, where they've come from the situations been deteriorating in the humanitarian agency. say it's about to get much. most of them have come from the southern part of somalia, where they depended on farming and hurting livestock. until the last 3 rainy seasons failed. crops, withered and animals died. here they surviving on one meal a day. how are mohammed osmond with one of the 1st to arrive? she's a community leader. she's been trying to find help with little success. halla have a guy d, c. he. the situation around here is extremely difficult. people are hungry and in poor house. people don't even have shelter every time a car passes here,
1:28 pm
people think that somebody is coming to give them food. it's a similar story all around the outskirts of mogadishu. the u. n says more than 60000 people have arrived here in the last 4 months. and across the country, more than half a 1000000 people have been displaced by the drought. humanitarian organizations say they only have 3 percent of the funds needed to help them. the solution is for everyone to act fast. we need more fun. we need more attention to the drought. we need the support from the donor agencies from donor countries at to the so many people, that's what we need now. meanwhile, somali as government is entangled in an ongoing and fraught electoral process, much of the world's attention is focused on the war in ukraine. people here have been left destitute there, waiting and wondering if anyone will come to help. the
1:29 pm
shortage of funds is one of the major hurdles that lies between getting old lives in front of getting help to the people that need it. another problem is the ongoing conflict between the western back government here in mogadishu and the great ship, bob, even where we are here at night with his gun fired. the conflict is dragged on, the west and back government controls the capital and some of the major ways that the countryside under the control of voucher. bob who wants to control any aids that parties to that territory. the government and its international partners are willing to do that. so that means for people to get help they call and get help in that home that exacerbate the displacement problem. that people flocked to the towns and cities where they hope some help will become available. but the problem is further worse than by the fact that this ongoing election process,
1:30 pm
which is also more than the politician a trying to choose new leaders. it's not that heavy somali get to vote, but the lead to trying to select a new president and m p 's among among themselves and distracting everyone in the, in the government and in the political class. and it also means that the west and donors might be funding and humanitarian response. i don't know who that would be working with in the weeks ahead to see the the, just some of the many challenges rains a meant to come next month that april. but the long term weather forecasters say that they're not expecting much rain to come at all and they studied in did the, the case, the humanitarian organizations say samaria could be on the brink of a simon, thanks so much. malcolm web now still had an al jazeera in his ins, once again, protesting is time against the drafting of a new constitution. will be live in the capital. a lively presidential debate in
1:31 pm
the philippines. the real talking point is who didn't take part and installed another carrier, landmark full of bron james is he moves is that closer to the top of the old times for english ah hello for. i don't often get to say this, but scotland is one of the warmest parts of europe at the moment. we've seen some very high temperature sir feeding up towards at northwestern corner of the continent. next courtesy of this area of the high pressure was citizen high pressure. they traveling a clockwise direction with dragging up some warm air up towards the north west of the a region lobby showers continued down towards the south, but fine and dry, more spring sunshine. coming in across a good part of europe over the next couple of days. so that was
1:32 pm
a top temperature in the highlands of scotland, the northwest highland 20 degrees celsius, scorching weather coming through. he might be quite as warm over the next couple days, but still plenty of warmth around we got temperatures getting into the air, the low to mid teens across sir northern parts of germany in that heat. if anything, expanding further as we go through monday, tuesday, and on into wednesday, 18 celsius in berlin by tuesday, warmer still for wednesday. the cool, rare, as you can see is further south. and that's where we got the showers continuing, more wet weather coming in across the mediterranean, some heavy rain making its way into portugal, spreading across much of spain as we go on through monday, still called out to water se, but warming up in keith. ah, it is murder. when you throw a fire bomb into someone's home and me, she no longer crash it. you know?
1:33 pm
i don't know. the insignificant numbers got insignificant ideologically the insignificant even as a crime game. very significant by the control you think the government a difficult policy, though shall not kill part of the radicalized series on al jazeera. examining the headline. what is the situation there right now? it's worse than any kind of night that it was, however, unflinching journalism. what is it telling us about india? it's telling us that we're going down a very, very beam that is sharing personal stories with a global audience. here i am meeting with people sharing the same struggles, share and same stories. explore an abundance of world class programming on al jazeera. oh,
1:34 pm
a welcome back here watching out, is there a time to recap, i'll headlines in the car cave rescue workers have been searching for survivors in the ruins of buildings. russian forces have relentlessly targeted the cities and started the invasion. russia says it's once again you type a sonic miss out to attack ukraine. spokesman to the ministry of defense says military targets were head. officials and mario paul say more than 39000 people fled in the last week. russia is targeting the subbing for city, which of these is vital to the success of its invasion? mario pool has been under relentless artillery attack, which has left it people without water power. many other basic supplies for
1:35 pm
a week. well, this is the territory in red that russia and it's separate, says to allies control over the past week. more than 39000 people have flight the fighting. capturing mary, opal would establish a land bridge for russian forces between amex crimea and the separatist held east in region of don bass. joining us from copenhagen is harry nettles, who is a policy director at rasmussen, global, and previously worked for the policy planning unit at night. a good to have you with us. so let's start with the overall military situation. first, if we can, is russia's merch refocus shifting to air power rather than operations on the ground because the ground war is encountering difficulties. it wouldn't, and they can have calculated is on army ukrainian army, the cranium and some of the community. so now what we're seeing is more intense and
1:36 pm
it's going to work for instructional certain cities and civilians. and in terms of territory speaking, we don't see a lot of major movement actually around the city of ukraine, but still putting the resistance. so now at least over the weekend, what we're seeing is more, more air power. yes. but also russia policy, some of it's offensive operations bringing supplies, repairing equipment. because ultimately what they're preparing for is a long war urban warfare, which is a lot of power. and this is why they're also joining troops from elsewhere, and drafting mercenaries to produce pressures. now, in the last warm, 48 hours, we've seen the youth the, the class use at least of hypersonic missiles. does that also indicate that perhaps ukrainian air defenses was stronger than expected? it does. gaining control of the air was one of the rushes principal objectives and stays on the war. and this has happened and therefore happy negligently affected
1:37 pm
their operational progress. so we don't have their security for the russians, and this is why we're seeing them using this house on their own pace rather and going over your crash. now, the use of the hypersonic miss something announced by the russians themselves. so this also has a bolstering effect because of their dismal performance in the field. hypersonic weaponry is one of the few areas where russia is not falling behind. this is a way for within to basically show this off and say, look, we do have the technology that really, there is a question here. why hasn't russia taken down the ukranian internet and communication infrastructure? you know, the 1st hour of the war, similar to what we've seen when other countries have invaded well, oh, they've tried. but i think just like on their operational side and
1:38 pm
a kinetic side, the russians miscalculated how much and you really get the point of sort of it. so they are seeing basically on all these fields, they're seeing stuff or ukrainian resistance, including including when it comes to this area we should just pointed out to there's been the links from the west suggesting that russia might be asking china for military equipment, assistance with military equipment, russia produces almost all of its military equipment, right? why? i mean, is it conceivable that it would need supplies from china? that it's, it's running out that it's, equipment is being depleted faster than it can replace, that, it needs to turn to another countries that really conceivable in a way for military aid is all like russia admitting that if student has done,
1:39 pm
has outdone his teacher because we need to remember that russia for decades has helped china, military with station is helping with weaponry and technology. and since then trying to develop its own systems, johns and field communication system. so while china can not immediately give russia more develop systems, it wouldn't be necessarily compatible, it could, you could help it with, with, with some things. the question is, will china do this? because there's also a political implication behind this as well. not just practical one that if say if china, where russia military aides, then the political signing here would be that that's present, she fully backs. and then of course, with all the western sections that has been applied. so i know my question was, is it really conceivable that russia could be depleting its hardware that quickly
1:40 pm
