put us on a much stronger strategic foot stranded and under see that desperate situation continues for citizens stuck in the city of matthew, pope and north korea flexes it's might. new video emerges, showing its latest miss office and in sport at the shock exit for italy in the world. have paul fine. european champions are beaten by north macedonia, and their payoff, final or western allies in brussels are continued to pile the pressure on russia to end it's military offensive in ukraine. in the coming out, u. s. president joe biden will see 1st hand some of the impact russia's war is having when he visits poland. that's where most ukrainian refugees have fled to. so far as the meeting you leaders in brussels, where

a deal has been struck to help europe and dates reliance on russian gas. not impressive. i know, i know good lemay russian gas will have caused for europe. but it's not only the right thing to do from a moral standpoint. it's kind of put us on a much stronger strategic footing. and i am proud to announce that we've also reached another major breakthrough in transplant data flows. privacy and security are key elements of my digital agenda. and today we've agreed to unprecedented protections for data privacy and security for our citizens. the sanctions are now working their way deep into the russian system, draining proteins, resources to finance this atrocious war. i'll work on sanctions also shows that when we act together with stronger and we really can make a difference. and we are continuing to reinforce our corporation in many strategic

ways. when a tasha ballet is life for a say in brussels, so natasha the us, coming to the aid of of europe there on the energy front. the recognition of the acute situation. that's a european partner. so find themselves in yes, we heard from the u. s. sir, president joe biden there and the head of the european commission as lavonne de lan, joe biden. i'm von glen agreeing on what they're calling a new energy partnership. now what this means is that the u. s. is basically going to help the a, you reduce its reliance on russian energy supplies, most notably on our russian gas. now the u. s. is actually the european union's biggest export of liquefied natural gas. it will probably now increase a some ellen g supplies a to the block as well as helping the european union diversify and find other

energy sources will energy certainly going to be on the table a for the 2nd day over the you summit a here in brussels, had been some divisions amongst a you leaders over a one idea which was to ban russian energy, oil and gas in ports. now that's been a something that washington has done, but it's far more difficult. here for the european union, you have some countries like poland saying that those bands should go ahead because of what's happening in ukraine because everybody knows that that money being spent on russian energy is helping to fuel moscow's war chest. on the other hand, you have some a, e, u countries like germany, italy who is saying that they simply cannot do without russian energy without russian gas. at this particular moment in time, it is not a viable option to banish completely. everyone agrees it needs to be phased out, but they know that any form of ban would affect consumers at home that would affect these governments domestically because basically prices would go up and attach. you

mentioned poland there, the u. s. president are traveling their next what, what are we expecting him? yes, sir. president biden leaving brussels wrapping up business. err on his way to warsaw, where he will meet with the polish president andre duda for a meeting. he'll also go to an army base. we understand where he will meet some nato troops and his expected to visit a refugee center and speak to refugees. poland, of course, now hosting about 2000000 of the more than 3000000 ukrainians who have fled the country over the border. a p cause of the war. this is a way the u. s. is showing that he cares about the humanitarian, a crisis bite, and then expected to speak to a women. children are men who all come from ukraine. it is also very symbolic visits, of course, because poland for so long was part of the soviet union sphere of influence,

but now very much turned towards the west. a member of the european union, a member of nato, bordering ukraine. in fact, a, just a couple of weeks ago, a russian cruise missile attack on the military base in western ukraine not far from the viv landed very close just over 10 kilometers from the polish border. so this is a very symbolic, very important visit for the u. s president. natasha bala. life was there in brussels. thank you. or ukraine's deputy prime minister has said a humanitarian corridor will be opened in matter you, paul, but only for people with their own means of transport. him, are hon talked to elena when i shook in the capital key of he asked her if the humanitarian corridors were working. would have oscar. what we're seeing are you good. they are working does great difficulty. they are being constantly shelled. russia is constantly breaking the deal with the corridors that we are opening in

reality are being shell and people don't feel safe, especially when it comes to marty all over the world to scale. humanitarian catastrophe has been ongoing for more than 3 weeks. nato is meeting today. do you feel that nato has let ukraine down? know last name. why we don't have a right to be disappointed that we don't have the right stop over fight, and we don't have the right for emotions that aren't helpful for our survival in victory over russia. the obviously understand that the forces have not been equal from the start. we talk about russia having in the amount of robins cuties brought with russia doesn't have and what the crane has is the fog that we are on our own land. our old people are fighting brothers children or adult not for nathan decides or doesn't decide, will be judged, but he's not only the ukrainians, but the way the whole civilized world through the question that is at stake today is this evil when, if dark wins over or perhaps the balloon have to leave as

a human, to remain human, no matter what, would you come over? but what is the current status of the russia ukrainian talks? russia seems to be talking about the big picture stuff. demilitarization potential withdraw later membership, but ukraine is sticking to its guns and saying it's a ceasefire. and his withdrawal from territories. is there any common ground literacy which you last night? did you sure to nibble or see, it was nice if russia wanted to find a solution, we would not have war. russia understands well, that we don't have any nazis, because over legislation, strictly condemn massive. russia understands well that it demands what the will never happen to be count, concedes over 3030 for what for if things for like this, russia, i will repeat again with never a talk. russia doesn't want any talks and pretending that it is participating in the wrong table for a moment. it makes it possible that the talks don't succeed in russia is killing

civilians and creating a humanitarian catastrophe in ukraine. is the goal so that you never find an agreement. thanks for the opposite. we would have already found an agreement long time ago received his wish, the more than this to. and now this, your opinion seemed to be taking the lead when it comes to ukraine. but for you, is this much more of a global fight. so yeah, which is what this does not or you can shoot. i want to address the nation. we're listening to as known. fortune to reduce my courtroom strobe. we are fighting for the world. we want to leave in the world for those who think that the rules just want to be able to do such things. neither to us north, you call you 3 my degrees. my ask is to support the grain of support. the cranium. people support us in the fight and believe me everyone to gain from it, including your leaders in the nation. this will become a guarantee for the safety of all of us. you hold on our same bas robbie joins us

now from the wave in know west in ukraine, nazena. so i understand you have an update on the, the death toll in that russian strike on the theater. and matthew poll that happened more than a week ago. now. that's right. in this conflict, there have been so many brutal attacks, but some stand out as specifically more brutal than others. and in mario pulled the worst effect city by this war. so far, the theater was attacked on march 16th sheltering women and children. there we are hearing from the murray city council now that there could have been 300 people who were killed in that attack. additionally, 300 people in the day after the attack that leveled the theatre, a 130 people were rescued from the rubble. there were some estimates that there could have been 1300 people sheltering there at the time. mostly women and children, the building very visibly marked outside with the world child, child children for pilots to be able to see and avoid. now we're hearing the moral

city council saying that witnesses that they've spoken to say that there were as many as 300 people that were possibly killed. now we still don't have a specific body count. officials are holding out hope that that number is inaccurate but it also. ready is a situation where that number could potentially go up. and there are these reports as well. zane of over 400000 people going from ukraine into russia. what more do we know about that? we've been seeing images on russian state tv as well as reports on social media that many of the people in areas that have been attacked by russia are being transported behind russian lines and into russian territory, which is something that the ukrainian government is described as hostage taking, now russia's perspective is that these are people that wanted to go into russian control space. they're ethnically, russian, they speak russian, and they were volunteering to go into what russia causes their own kinds of

humanitarian corridors. now, what does this look like on the grounds? we've spoken to people that have escaped from many of the cities that have been attacked by russian forces, many cities in the conflict zones. and what we keep hearing is that people want to get away from the fighting and they don't necessarily want to go into russia. they want to get further into ukraine. we've spoken to one man who set a convoy of people that had organized themselves in their own cars, trying to get out of a conflict zone, came across a russian checkpoint and had the tank. you turn their gun on that conway and told them to go back where they came from. another couple that we spoke to said that they'd been trapped in a basement for 2 weeks. like so. many other people in an area near car chief. and when they came out, they saw that food and water was being offered by russian forces. they simply saw people denying it and said that they didn't want to take aid from people that they saw as aggressive. so russia may be trying to take these people into its own territory to show that their conflict is not an invasion and is a popular liberation of sorts. they may be trying to use people as a negotiating ship as the ukrainians of accuse them. but we do know that these

sorts of things are happening to what extent russia remains popular to what extent ukraine wants to continue to have strong ties of moscow. it has to be said before the conflict. there were people that supported russia that supported a close relationship with moscow, but that popularity for a political connection with russia. russia's popularity inside ukraine, even with its own russian speaking ethnic groups that has steadily been dwindling. since the conflict began, ramos probably lived there in the thanks thing. let's cross over to russia now. hash him had better is in moscow for us, so hash. and 1st of all, the latest on those russian army attacks were, has of these book person of the ministry of defense. you go gonna think of said that the russian army has destroyed a fuel the per one of the largest in the central part of ukraine, years by the ukrainian army and widely used to provide

a vital life line for the army units operating in the care of region has been destroyed, the russian army also says that it has destroyed $51.00 military facilities which include anti aircraft batteries, drones, rocket launchers in different parts of ukraine. this goes along the line of what the russian military has been saying since the start of the military operation . they have been talking about battering different military installations across the country. and what's russia's reaction to the west, stepping up support for ukraine and imposing more sanctions on russia? well, a 100. there is a sense here that what is happening, the russians see it as a coordinated effort by the, by the west to undermine of russia. they say that there is

a military operation under way and that the americans, along with a 2 are providing significant media throughout the distance. the grain are compounded by the embargo by the sanctions imposed on russia, which, which of the russians say is aiming. first of all, undermining russia and also undermining that chance of coming out into a political solution to what is happening in the ukraine circle of rob russia. foreign minister today. this is a hybrid war imposed on russia. he's talking about both the military and the economics. the media to a provider to the news and to the sanctions which have been expanded yesterday. in the summit, also the kremlin spokesperson mitre passcode said that's what we see is a pattern where the americans are increasingly able to isolate a russia, but have brushed aside the idea of russia being bumped out of the g 20 economy.

think that the world is such a diverse place where this is not something though, is going to be a major concern for the russians on the talk with ukraine is about a possible and to the conflict us these via and the comprehensive settlement. bestcopy said that things have change to the point where it's early to talk now about about details of the security arrangements. the russians remain adamant that a less that demands are met is going to be extremely difficult to see them offering major concessions. and they still insist on the fact that they to has to understand that it has to review its whole policy about expanding further eastwards to be able to. and so one of the biggest concerns by the russians, which they say is that expansion is a serious threat. to national security hash in thank you, had him had barbara in the russian capital, forced,

or ukraine 2nd largest city. hard cave has been under constant bombardments on thursday. russian artillery shells landed in front of a post office where people were thought to be queuing for food. at least 6 people were killed and 17 wounded. the mer says nowhere is safe. and as i advise people to take cover under ground or in basements, i said, beg is in hard cave. he's been with one of the teams trying to dig bodies out of the rubble. in the rubble of this building, the search continues not for life, but for the dead. bombs ripped through the hockey administration building on march 1st, leaving only debrief, twisted metal, and dust. one bomb came through the roof, others fell outside, leaving a crater and destruction for all to see with a bottom for that, i'm sure of the celestial. we catch to workers on a break,

what they tell us of the last few days, they found 4 bodies. net in day after day, they returned near the la maya, this garage telco systemic to google. it still use the, i think many here face such a large number of victims among civilians for the 1st time you are yet, as they say one death is a tragedy. but a 1000 deaths are a statistic. unfortunately, it's the truth of this to those us that is the under constant threat of further strikes, brutal, fruitful, you know. so just, we don't have time for feelings now. we put them aside, but we'll have to deal with them later. not. it's not an easy process. with me now, we have work to do it. we focus on it. this is the kitchen to the cafe. next door.

everything has been destroyed. pink walls, cafe pictures on the wall, but there's one thing that does stand out and is quite striking. you can smell the fact that there's still dead bodies. there's remains still here. we're setting on few floor here. most most the faucet was military guys. just we just received, we been we met junior in the ruins of the building. it was like he had just finished his morning briefing when and about the 1st year old kid came and hit me or this building all windows for a crash 1st injurious and 10 minutes later i was down on 3rd floor and 2nd rock at this building. right there, and everybody was standing on each floor on that, on the corner,

and everybody died so far, you hadn't been face to face with his enemy. this war, which is worse wor, work at. first of all, most of our victims. also you see the victims are you can see it is the symptoms because of rockets, a bomb being of effects a tech or, or rocket tech. you just like you play a lottery like because you know, you know, you can renew, you can lose on the life my guys for my, for my team, the allied because we elected all the elsa says, continue a month into this war. the still pulling out body on a daily basis and work with her have told us that that group toss will continue until they've been through the entire building. and slowly the body characterizes

rescue workers provide whatever dignity they can to their fallen countrymen. a salt bagel, al jazeera, her gift, or i plenty more ahead on this news or more in ukraine as the un general assembly rebukes russia over the invasion. but dozens, abstain from the votes. inside the hospitals on the front lines of ukraine's health crisis. and later in school, adding to cut our 2022 or we'll have action from the welcome qualifies. ah, father world news now and taiwan is considering extending mandatory military service for young people following russia's invasion of ukraine. the defense minister says 4 months of service wouldn't be long enough. in the event of

a conflict, the military drills have taken place on the dawn, jin archipelago, a string of islands that are closer to mainland china than they are to taipei, andrew chappelle reports. people living on these islands off the coast of the mainland are watching events unfold a new crank. as chinese warplanes carry out incursions into ty wands, air defense zone. 64 year old lynch a show has always lived with a threat. the china might seize, don in island by force shows on college. al sheeny may hard. if they provoke us, we still can't touch them. if they want to fly over the island, just let them fly. if you shoot them down, everything will be over. i'm not kidding. you, it would be the start of the 3rd world war. it's really too scary. it wouldn't even just be us and the mainland fighting other countries would surely also join in the fight that just look at the war between russia and ukraine. if they use atomic bombs, it will all be over. no country would be able to escape where the public doubt.

dungeon is only 50 kilometers off the mainland. the island is home to a missile base, and military drills are held regularly to prepare for potential assault by chinese forces ga, ga, pain and bush will color festival needs to be pointed out upon one is not ukraine to taiwan question, and the ukraine issue a different in nature bonded mentally taiwan is an inalienable part of trying to the territory. the taiwan question is purely chinese internal affairs and that can be no for an interference. the 2 sides across the taiwan strait must be and will be unified. it is the trend of history that can never be stopped by any one or any 4, surely for younger people that's now easier to imagine. so i, so it is, it's a challenge and that is it. i don't think the threat of the war has a big influence in our daily lives, but of course it will come up and everyone's conversations, but we will discuss it in a rather light hearted manner. for example, when we explore strongholds, we would discuss it will really start which nearby stronghold we would run to.

because recently there's been discussion about bomb shelters in taiwan, about where to go to take shelter and so on. with life goes on as usual here, and people hope that isn't about to change. and or chappelle algebra or the u. s. has imposed new sanctions on north korea after pyongyang launched its largest ever intercontinental ballistic missile qindzhong and says he's preparing for long standing confrontation with the u. s. and expanding his countries nuclear war, the turn flies louis reports on the launch of what some and some analysts calling amongst the missile. this is north korea's biggest intercontinental ballistic missiles state media has now released this video of the test, calling it a new type icbm. he to kim jong and personally oversaw the launch, saying the test will deter any potential military moves by the u. s. south korea

reacted immediately conducting a live fi, a test of multiple ballistic and tactical missiles. we went on a military's closely monitoring a north korean military movement and confirmed that we have the ability in readiness to accurately strike wreath you origin of a missile launcher. thursday's launch chose north korea's nuclear capability, has advanced the missile flu higher and for a longer time than any previous tests, the size of this means a lot more inside of it. so we're looking at a missile lacking carry more than one, or i could shrink multiple targets with a single missile. the timing of the launch is also significant. and because of the wall is on the grain prices are either northridge trying to get friend refocus attention on his cell. or it thinks that because that we are so preoccupied that they make her less ashy because of all the bandwidth that ukraine is taking over

the test is being seen as a major escalation. the un security council will meet on friday to discuss the launch for years, attempts to dismantle north korea's nuclear and ballistic missile programs have failed. and kim junglin has made no secret of the fact. he wants his country to be recognized as a nuclear state. florence louis al jazeera world. kelly is a professor of political science and diplomacy at tucson national university. he says, sanctions are going to make north korea give up it's nuclear weapons program. the larger issue is that, that north korea really sees itself as sort of the korea, sort of the appropriate korea that south creates a lot of the american colonies dominated by the united states, japanese corporation and things like that. i mean it's really sort of central north korean ideology actually that it's like the wheel 3, it sort of protector of the green people and stuff like that. and so it's really,

really important. and north korea constantly. so show that it some way up here equal without 3, and it can't do that. economic militarily become the big thing, right? and so that's why there's so much emphasis on the nuclear weapons or even written into the north korean constitution. now, because without the nukes north koreans just kind of like a or version of south korea, places are going to get more nuclear. i think that was sort of one of the problems that was brought up back in 2018. we talked about sort of the complete disarmament and worker that's not going to happen. i think the real benefit of sanctions strategically is that they slow down the north korean march. you know, if you got, you know, pretty nuclear weapons today that sort of guess it's roughly what people think. maybe they're more but you know, they didn't, we didn't have sanctions know. they might have 75, i think. so that's really the benefit of the sanctions that slows the march towards more and more of these weapons in northridge made it pretty clear that they want to build out a full spectrum nuclear force of thousands of people. i expected to gather only french ireland of corsica for the funeral. of course the can nationalist yvonne

the nationalists have spelt is out for them. corsica is not friends. they have a unique language, a distinct culture, and an identity semen. this island are willing to fight for what do you nicholas hawk al jazeera, vast. yep, you way. still ahead on al jazeera future is at stake. the university, the thousands of lebanese students attend, is close to financial collapse, and in sport, house failure kept up their winning run of the cricket. welcome. ah hello there. there's lots of spring wants to be found across europe this weekend, especially for those central and western areas. we've got temperatures well above

the un general assembly demanded an immediate cessation of hostilities from russia called on its troops to withdraw. 140 nations voted for the resolution backed by ukraine and nato allies. though it just shows, again, that when the international communities asked to take a stand, russia is isolated and the appeal to day of the general assembly is directed primarily towards russia. and we just hope that this time they will heed that cold russia was joined by only 4 allies, north korea, bella roost, syria in eritrea in opposing the resolution which also demands an end to the seas. mary paul, but 38 countries, abstained from the vote. among them, china, the asia, neil, it's clear that some of the contents of the draft resolution go beyond the scope of humanity. some issues are very complex and can only be resolved for political negotiations between the parties concerned china favor to resolution submitted by

south africa with more moderate language when calling for an immediate cessation of hostilities that didn't single out russia. once war has begun. it is imperative that all of us wic to what's peace it is for this reason that south africa, the of the view. that right now, we should be more concerned with ending the wool and addressing the humanity and plight of the people that i picked it right. that resolution was submitted, but never put to a vote after ukraine raised procedural objections. these facts has never been a product of consultations with ukraine, neither it is a product of cross regional consultation. as was the case with the revolution just adopted by overwhelming majority. it is attacks promoted unilaterally by one country prompted by another country. unlike the security council resolutions and

the general assembly are legally non binding, but still symbolically important. even countries who stain from the vote expressed grave concern at the humanitarian situation for ukrainians. but argued a resolution supported by all countries would be more effective, even if the vast majority of countries believe russia is ultimately responsible. kristen salumi al jazeera, the united nations, a holocaust survivor killed in russia shilling in ukraine has been laid to rest. but his roman shank had died last week when a russian strike in his apartment building in hopkins. the night secure ukrainian survived 3 knots, one concentration camps during world war 2 was also sent to a baltic sea island as a force laborer to work on the v 2 rocket program. he was not fit to leave high case. we were able to take him away and he himself was stubbornly refusing to leave. we kept inviting him, kept coming after the bombardment started,
