well, just in the last 30 minutes, we heard 2, possibly 3, loud bangs and explosions while we were in the town square just in the center of the city. and then we saw that everybody was starting to make their way to shelters . we started to do the same and we started looking into horizon for where the strikes me. okay. we're almost certain that strikes me. i hadn't heard anything like that since then. we saw smoke rising over the city there in the distance. we're still trying to figure out exactly what the target may have been. we are still trying to establish exactly what has happened. but what we can tell you is that this is the 2nd major attack to happen in levine city. the west of the country has been spared much of the violence as we've been reporting. however, there have been a number of attacks, i'd say about half a dozen, a high profile attacks in the west of the country. but this is the 2nd one to happened within the city limits. and it is the closest one to happen

near the city center. we've just been hearing reports that what has been hit is a fuel depot of fuel depot here in the city. and the latest report seemed to suggest that that was in fact the target of the time. now again, we were in the center of the city at the time we were speaking to the mayor of levine and he described chief as the heart of the city. the v as the soul, that is a cultural capital. there are a countless numbers of unesco heretic sites. here it is a major cultural and an important city for the country. as far as the war effort goes, it's been a major. the region of, of you've has been very important in terms of getting military assistance from the west, into the country and to the front line. and levine has been a major, how to coordinate and deliver all kinds of humanitarian aid. we've had hospitals from q for children located, relocated to the city. people are moving their businesses here. it really had

become an unofficial 2nd city. and for a long time, people had been, you know, seeing the air raid sirens as not as much of a threat. the attacks always were somewhere further away in the west of the country . but today definitely when we were in the square, we saw people's expressions changed. as soon as they heard those loud thuds, everyone stopped the courtyard in the in the main square went silent, and people started to walk much quicker to try to get to one of the many air. ready shelters that are spread across the city. jane, as we're speaking to you now we can hear loud sides. can you just sort of described to us what's happening around you? and you've also been in that city for a number of days. now, how much does it feel like this is an escalation? well that's exactly what this is. this is a very clear escalation of the conflict, especially as it comes to this city. now, many of the people here have been directly involved in the participation when it

comes to relief. they have been volunteering to go to the front. but so far the residents of the city have not experienced the war in the same way that mario poll has or car key or turn if you've all city, is that the mayor named in his interview with us today. he said he speaks to city officials in those places every single day. he speaks to his counterparts, mayers of those cities every single day to try to organize relief and recovery effort even said he was rebuilding homes. you're planning to host residents of other cities here in levine, long term. but there was this feeling that the fear of attack had abated. i asked him today if he was worried that his city might be next. and he said he doesn't have time for that. now he's focused on other things, but this definitely will bring this attack will bring the need for defense, the, the planning that they do in terms of maintaining the security of their city. what they will have to do going forward. that will definitely change things. this path

will definitely change how this city views itself in the conflict. it was for a long time, a backstop, a rear base, not just for defensive purposes, but also for the support the troops on the front line get a number of kitchens or have opened up. your restaurants have gone full scale. simply cooking food for soldiers and refugees on the front line. people trying to leave and flee conflicts sounds, but this was certainly no doubt alter how people see their own security in the city during this conflict. all right, zane, se, se for the same beds arriving live for us in the visa, and we'll cross back with more developments as they come to hand me. my us president joe biden has described a russian president vladimir putin as a butcher while meeting ukrainian refugees. bottom was at a santa in warsaw where some of the more than 2000000 people who fled to poland. a thing is remark there, come about a week after he referred to persian as

a war criminal. you know, you're dealing every day with vladimir putin look at what he's done to these people . what does it make you think is a butcher? did you make additional kaylee guy, frank? at what has correspondingly how kit is covering biden's visit to warsaw. hello. that. kimberly. calling putin a butcher. how much of an escalation is that in terms of his language that he's using well, this is a continuation of what the u. s. president has been saying for more than a week now that he believes that latter report and it is committing war crimes for what the u. s. as a ledge to our attacks that are deliberate on civilians and as a result the united states has already kicked into gear and investigation by the us state department. and of course, when you label someone that will more criminal, there are legal consultations to that. so the united states is not only

investigating from the department of state standpoint, but also we know that the u. s. president pledge some $300000000.00 plus dollars. well, here in europe at nato meetings to document these alleged war crimes so that there can be some potential prosecution in the future. so the u. s. president, using the words butcher is clearly deliberate, and it is an escalation and language, given the fact that the u. s president not only has called let him recruit no war criminal, but certainly is seeking to have him prosecuted. kimberly, he's also got a speech later on that to day, which is said to be very significant. what you know about what he's got to say. well, the speech of the u. s. president will be delivering in about 2 hours time, maybe a little bit longer. it's really a culmination of the president's meetings here in europe, and it's been

a full day even here in warsaw. the u. s. president. not only meeting with his defense secretary and secretary of state of ukrainian counterparts, but then having a bilateral meeting with the president of poland, where the u. s. president once again reiterated the commitment of the united states to article 5. this is very important, given the fact that president, dude, us says that many polls are feeling a sense of threat. the fact that they share a border with ukraine, the fact that so many refugees, some 2, almost 3000000 have fled here to poland. a is very, i made many, many people here very nervous. so as a result, the u. s. president reiterating that commitment to article 5, calling it sacred, that an attack of when nato country is an attack on all as a member of the united states would come to the defense of poland, should the conflicts fill beyond ukraine's borders. so the u. s. president has been reiterating a message of unity of shared commitment and also of

a need to overcome the challenges. and that is what he'll be highlighting in this culmination speech of these 3 days of meetings in europe. the fact that he believes this is a pivotal point, not only for poland, not only for the united states, but for the world as it takes on what he says is russian aggression at a decision of whether or not it is democracy that will prevail or talk receipt. all right, kimberly, we'll cross back to you a little later. thank you very much for that update. kimberly haircut slash pressing walsall. ukraine's president has drawn comparisons between the war in his country and the years along serious conflict rusher is a key ally of serious governments speaking via video link to the doe have forum. a lot of me, the landscape said the besieged port city of mary. a pole had been destroyed in much the same way as series left home. he also pushed for him host cutoff to increase its natural gas production to counter what he called the threat of russia

using energy as a weapon. this is also a question of abandoning the usage of russian oil and gas. responsible states like the state of cuts are, are reliable and solid exporters of energy resources, and they can make their contribution to the stabilisation in europe. they can do much to restore justice. the future of europe rests with your efforts. it depends on your efforts. i ask you to increase the output of energy to ensure that everyone in russia understands that no country can use energy as a weapon. spring in mom and val, who's at the doe have for mamma. that was an unexpected address. what else to fill in ski, se an industry as we have seen during the last several weeks since the beginning of the war has been addressing various parliaments in various countries, including here in the middle east to remember what he talked to, the israeli fundamentalists. he talked about at the holocaust and things like that

. he talked about the situation of israel in germany. he spoke about the bed and wall on, you know, gosh, an aggression and so on here. so you know how he was very smart in choosing his words. and in talking about things that he, he, he believes will be well received here in the middle east. when he did commodities so made that comparison between the destruction of microphone and the destruction of political here. so even mentioned the month of ramadan and the muslims in ukraine a fact that instead of leaving this month, the experience of the fasting in quiet, in quiet off, marcia should be the case. they are taking up arms, they are forced to carry arms to defend their nation. i mean the words were very. 1 was selected, and that's his lots on his way of talking to different people in different parts of the world. because what he, what he says, always he's not, this is a war on the world. this is a war. this is

a russian additional democracy on human rights and human values. and he believes, of course, he has been well received in this forum today. and mohammed kazi, me a shake, tom and been the hum and al fanny open the event with a message about the plight of refugees elsewhere. let's have a listen. the handle at alarm and mal mela in every year were legit. we stand in solidarity with the millions of innocent people and refugees who've been victimized by this unjust war. and geopolitical calculation is idaho. while stressing the solidarity, i would like in this context to remind us of the millions of palestinians who've been suffering from the israeli occupation and international neglect for more than 7 decades. similarly, a lot of other people, such as the syrian people and the afghans for whom the international community has failed to render justice. and so mohammed cause has a near reminding will that there are multiple crises happening at the same time as

the ukraine war. that's why it's cut on her immediate meal cutter houses, trying to show consistency here in a 1000 stances to words, different issues in the world. different conflicts, the same way cut off, stood with that it produced from palestine. refugees from iraq, refugees from syria, cut on it is also standing. i mean, that's the gist of what he wanted to say. standing with that, if it is of ukraine, because cut out is cited with people against aggression. remember that he described, this wasn't an unjust war. so that's basically the sauce. and so he brushed on some other issues. he talked about the fact that you know, that the well to address basic woes. our problems are crucial issues that have been around for a long time. including for instance, is number of phobia. he says his number for the is not limited to one country or

the other. it is, and it's a national phenomenon, and it is one of the sources of troubles in the region and across the world. so the america is seizing the opportunity here because this forum is where is the best opportunity for us to showcase the way in which it is lucas issues in the world posing as a place for dialogue. and this forum has been going on for 22 years now, and it has seen lots of situations like this. i remember the cause mutation in different countries in somalia, the horn of africa in da for and now in somebody. busy and that's it all is a part of that because for the across the world be a place for dialogue and calling for beef on shore, new water. remember that you also said that the militarization of complex across the world is not the solution solution should be for dialogue. ok,

thank you very much for that update mohammed. devout lie for us in let's pretend to ukraine now in the countries military says, rushing forces of into the city of slab, watch north of cave. they use t gas to disperse people, protesting against the presence of russian troops earlier. ukrainian officials of the mayor of savage had been abducted you since been released as a russian forces have also said the cities, hospital, ukraine and russia have a grade on opening 10 humanitarian corals. but people in mary pola having to use their own means of transport to get out in ron con, has those data. the russians of their craniums have negotiated 10 humanitarian corridors to be opened on saturday. one of those is in the besieged city of mary operable. what we're hearing is it's very difficult for residents to get to the edge of the city and to that humanitarian corridor and get out because there is still intense selling going on. we're also hearing that the russians have not

allowed bus drivers to take people in large number out of the city using coaches. instead, people are having to you to use their own private cars to get out which limits of the numbers of people that can actually leave now humanitarian car. those do work both ways. and the ukranian side, there is a problem still trying to get aide in to mario full and aid into that city, but also in other humanitarian corridors, particularly in the keep old us the key region. we're hearing that at least one town or where a humanitarian corridor has been opened. there is constant shilling, one resident of that sound said he was trying to leave. he wanted to leave, but there was an intense sheylan going on, and he couldn't get out the city. this has been a constant complaint by the ukranian authority say that every time they negotiate su ontarian corridors, russia doesn't abide by the si, fi. they've said this publicly, they say this privately,

they've been saying saying this for a very long time now. and it seems to me that at least in today's humanitarian corridor, in one of those sounds, we're hearing that the shelling is still continuing. ukrainian resistance and logistical problems is said to be slowing russian troops as they looked toward the southern port of odessa, the strategic city along the black seas bracing for a russian assault. as stephanie deca reports, i'd, as has been preparing for a russian assault for weeks now we're in the city center. it is heavily fortified. we need special permission to get her in. the military is very specific, insensitive by what we can and cannot film. now there's also an element of psychological warfare happening here. we're told you can hear the shelling from the russian fleet constantly. also ukrainian air defense systems are in place and we did speak to one soldier who told us that the situation has been changing somewhat over the last couple of days it brought. so mc hello for more,

this tuition is he think up will be open, but we already, we don't have another choice. we will go to the animals bar. no one can pick this up because or this is you, great, was still great. and what this war has done as united ukrainians across the country . and here in odessa and many restaurants, you see this happening basically preparing food for the soldiers, for the volunteers, for the front lines, for the refugees. it is very much a shock store when you speak to people saying that they never believed that this would have happened, but now was the time to come together and to do everything ah, to fight the russians. certainly here in odessa, they've been preparing for a russian assault on the city, the country's biggest c port, but everyone here will tell you that they will not be able to take it. ukraine's capital cave work to more air raid sirens this morning on friday. russia said the 1st phase of its military offensive is mostly complete. moscow says the focus now is to fully control the eastern don't bass region that contains the territories held by russian back separatists. danielle and lou hence sil him me so that you may

object is the 1st stage of the operation has generally been accomplished with the combat potential of the armed forces of ukraine have been considerably reduced, which makes it possible. i emphasize it once again to focus our core. if it's on achieving the main goal, the liberation of done, this. hashem are hell baris, following developments from moscow. hello, there hashem, the russians say they're now moving the focus to don't bass. what does that mean for the rest of you cry? or basically they're saying that they have managed to severely undermine the military capabilities of ukrainian military across the country to the point where they say that they have just over the last 24 hours target to the $117.00 military targets. they have down a shot down 3 of fighter jets destroyed ammunition to pose destroyed and to

aircraft systems, drones and also rocket launchers. they also said that they have managed to cut off the cities of care hockey and saw me. and nikolai of and tourney cove, and for them this is going to be the way for them to further concentrate that efforts on the push to further expand territorial gains in august under the as we have to remind our view as this is a lot of the nature of ration, the russians have been saying that the main reason they lost the oppression is basically because they were, they were answering a, some of the grievances voice by the russian speaking communities in don't boss, particularly in august where they say they have control. now, 793 percent of the territory and on yes, which they say the control have of it, but they are looking forward to see the forces loyal to them. they're further expand those territorial gains and hashem, the russian security council deputy chairman has been speaking about rashes,

nuclear preparedness, what movies set that comes against the backdrop of some of the concerned voice by the international community in the past few weeks, particularly since president vladimir put in last month put the nuclear forces on high alert, the russians are adamant. what they are doing is for the, for them to protect the country. but they're saying that they are acting in a responsible manner and that there is a dock tree and that governs the way the russians will use their nuclear capabilities. according to dmitri medford, who is the former president of russia and the deputy chairman of the security council, this can only happen will only happen if russia comes under an aggression. if its sovereignty is infringed. if its nuclear capabilities are under attack with the

able crippling, those are those capabilities. or if russia faces an existential threat, they're basically trying to send a message to the ne, to and to the americans that are russians will be acting in a very responsible way. and this is not something which is going to be triggered by an impulse. and that ultimately, ultimately, the main also adamant. what they are doing is that because we have been dealing with decades long grievances, particularly when it comes to the expansion of nato eastwards that those grievances were never met, or unserved by native americans. therefore they had to take things into their own hands. ok, thank you very much for that update. hash m r a in moscow where she's invasion of ukraine has spent solidarity rallies around the world in land. and thousands of people are marching to send a message of support and unity for the people of ukraine. landon's mer city can

ease taking part and spoke to us from for precedence. lensky, a few days ago, sent out a message to people across the world to take to the streets, to show our support and al solidarity with the people all over ukraine. but also to condemn, to chains, barbaric aggression. and it's really important to you if you cry. no, we in london stand sold to soda with the people of ukraine. well, i'm incredibly proud about london as have come forward in ukraine's an hour of need. in the darkest, we've opened our alms to those refugees coming to london. not enough. we're putting pressure i covered for more to be allowed to come. look at us, also donates in money to specialists. charities provide an assistance or food, medical equipment and other things that people have ukraine need,

continues in mary poll. any such evacuation is illegal. we have ox, andra. map feed truck on the air with us now live from cave. thanks to being on this program. alexandra, let's start with what you just said in your tweet. what other details do you have about reports that several 1000 ukrainians? i've been forced to say in these remote russian cities of aren't moment to we are a possibility to speak only with several people. so we don't know was a concrete amount or for people who were transferred to illegally to 3030 of russia for official source. you. so as a me or my, you told that a several thousands of people were transfer it, but we still have to try to check how much people now in 33 question.

i guess given that it's several 1000. and that's the allegation that would, i imagine be quite a logistical phase. what if any services are being provided to these people that you're hearing? well, he told that they should go so. so if you some people who are transferred to you by then yes. and then they have conversation to we, so for preventative, so for security of bodies and as a were question your it. and so it was so then he told it was a look like some i think, ration process, and then they were transferred to russia and some people in the know, hotel, some people are in camps. so, so it depends. so regardless or blessed, for example, one a one to many. i told that 1st he has to go to talk on that all. but then when they arrived here,

they was told that there is no replace and they will transfer to, to tumble. is that a disturbing allegations? there's also a growing number of abductions of journalists, local officials, as well as the activists in ukraine. way, hearing that at least 15 journalists to days have been detained. what are you hearing on the ground, and is that number much higher? now leah received a dozen sold for request of help from people from by territories, from kind of song that a dance needed to buy a home and others. and because so for a local resistance, russians who buyers started to, to the practice or political prosecutions. they threatened people, they use the physical violence, they disperse, peaceful demonstrations. they, they arrested people. fortunately, a released in dynamic and after some periods they released the

people. but i'm afraid that if you will not stop with this practice, they can go filter, and i do commend you to crimes for 8 years already. and i so how it, which tactics were used by russians in order to establish control in bye, okay, bye, don't bust into 0. 14. and i'm very afraid that the story can be repeated in you. ok by ukrainian territories. how do you feel personally, alexandra, given your role as the head of the center of the civil liberties in ukraine. what's your feeling of safety at this current time? i had no safety. i'm in here for now. i hear a huge explosions. and i have, frankly speaking, i don't know whether i be able to go life easy or not because it was so close to. so i think and what i have to do to stop this interview and to go to go shelter or to continue this interview. so it's like

a position in which millions of people now in ukraine, there is no safe place here. well, we really appreciate you taking the time to share your story and we hope you stay safe. alexandra met for chuck, the head of the center for civil liberties. you crime? john kerry is the united states special presidential envoy for climate speaking at the doe have for him. he said, stopping the war in ukraine was the highest priority. brewton is waging, and not just any legal unprovoked war a bit, but an evil horrendous war that it is the worst thing i've seen. and i fought no war. but as the worst thing i've seen a since i've seen clips of what happened in world war 2 and it, it really rises to a level of bcr lady and personal craziness that all of us should be pushing

back against in every way that we possibly know how and our correspond mom and val spoke with the national defense university professor at that doha form about ukraine's resistance. it seems that the ukrainian to strategy is working here, after more than a month of successful resistance. how could you explain that to us? was a good question, so napoleon said in warfare, the moralists to the physical as 3 is to one. and what is really the revelation here is that we always knew that the ukrainian strategy would be to resist across a broad axis. and in the rear of the russian forces, what we didn't realize was just how bad, quite frankly, the russian forces were. and so that's a lot of ukrainians to not just the rail, the russian initiative, but we begin to seize the initiative on their own right. i mean, let, let's talk about the, the fact as of saw, you know, the company, you talked about 2 factors. you canadian, successful strategy, rushing mistakes. but also there are other factors, the western support,

how sizable is if and is it still pouring into ukraine in terms of weapons? i think it is. i think that to, you know, we've just seen the u. s. congress, a vote. additional weapons for the ukrainians. those will be ship rather quickly. i don't think that they are decisive yet. i don't think that anything given the findings are game changes. i think ukrainians are still for the most part. fighting this war with weapons they had at the start of the war. and it's important to bear in mind that you know, the russians still have a overwhelming preponderance of forces on the battlefield and to court stolen quantity has a quality all its own. so the ukrainians are by no means out of the woods yet. but it is impressive that they've managed to derail the russian plan. you said the weapons are, they are still fighting with the weapons up they had before the war. are you saying that the width of the western weapons, they talked about, those thousands of rockets have not yet to each to ukraine somehow, but many have not. so, you know, i don't want to,

i don't want your viewers to take the false impression that there's a magic weapon from the west. this doing this. this is the ukrainians were fighting and they're fighting very, very well with limited weapons. they will be more effect this, they go on, but the, the challenge is the ukrainians are taking losses. the hope is that the western weaponry will restore the ballads to make up for the losses and manpower that ukrainian suffer. the latest lines we have say that the oceans are taking a pause. how do you explain that? yeah, i think they've out run their logistical capability, and they've basically gone as far as they can without being destroyed. and so realizing, for example, that they can't supply the forces around key f to actually move in and take here. they've decided instead to just put into a static position and fire artillery rockets, missiles into kia, hoping to sap the morale, to destroy the ukrainian forces. there and perhaps resume on instead of 4 axes,

just attacking in one axis, which will probably be that lou hence can donate this as an analyst. we want to ask you about the future prospects here. are we seeing the beginning of like a final final plan for the rushes taking the east and you know, dividing ukraine? well that's, that's what some people say. it looks as though the russians will focus their efforts in the east. if you can't achieve the victory you want to achieve, then you define the victory. that's acceptable. and i think that a victory that will leave everything east of the jumper river, the russian area of ukraine in russian hands, that probably is acceptable now for food. probably wasn't acceptable for him a month ago. so that is a possibility, but nobody knows for sure. also at the doha for i'm john kerry spoke about climate change. he said he's optimistic gabana, shaving the targets needed to control global warming in glasgow. we proved

through all the things that we did getting 65 percent of global g d p committed to real plans that could achieve point 1.5 degree limit which fatty barrel in the i was just in paris with him. and, and they have reaffirmed that if everybody does what they promised to do in paris, we could actually hold the earth temperature to 1.8 degrees by 2050. but despite that optimism, climate change is causing unusual weather, which is affecting ice shelves in antarctica. wet, cold, low sea ice, there has led to the collapse of the congress shelf, which is 1200 square kilometers. it was revealed in a satellite image taken on march 17th. stefan singer is a senior climate science and global energy policy advisor and climate action network. international. he says i shake collapses. could bring about sea level rises of up to 2 meters by the end of the century. beyond those he went happen.

increasingly, unpredictably was extreme was i went and particular record temperatures we have in the alaska, which is the coldest continent on the planet temperatures, which are usually well under 0 degree, the temperature set per higher 20 degrees higher celsius than they were usually since 2 weeks. that's and that's, that's not recorded before armed, where i've seen this in the world. we have seen this in the arctic as well. the other region was some launch glacial i sheets. and what we are seeing is that the increased melting of the existing ice only grown off the continent plus the i selves which are not necessarily glacial. i suggest a difference or collapsing increasingly becoming fragile. i might, you wrote an increase further and trigger fraser melting. so the dynamics on the

glacial um dynamics um that is what the scientists called potentially irreversible changes. so if that carries on, then we will see not only increased sea level rise, which was, which was already increasingly an exponential way in the last 2 struby case. not linearly assigned to set projected earlier and be might see sea level royce or sea level rising globally. why up to 2 meters by the year, 2100, which is a death penalty for many low lying island states and coastal cities allays in mexico are increasingly becoming targets have drug cartels. there's been a surgeon killings of men and women in uniform. the things are particularly bad in the state of zacatecas, where the number of police killed has tripled ingest at 3 years. john homan reports

in the state of zacatecas. the police dress like this. not against the saw nor cove it, but because if they're identified, they were being killed. more have died here than anywhere else in mexico so far this year. and the majority a killed when they're off duty. that's because as elsewhere in the country, they have to hand in their guns when they finish their ships. high level officials worried that they would use the weapons illegally themselves if left armed. but it's then that the easy pray for criminals at the funeral for a national been willows, his family moons the gum, and timed his murder till he just clocked off and walked out the police station and gal momento. they, the moment you want to carry a gun in your daily life, you can't. and that gives the go ahead to any criminal. they can come and do anything to you because you can't defend yourself. and you don't stop being a police officer because you're unarmed, you're a police officer at $365.00 days of the year. now ellie's boyfriend,

a police officer like her, was killed too in an ambush. this is a sure he was wearing like way back. she was deeply traumatized. so was her family now? she's in an office ro. i will never feel of it. the icon on me. i had a situation with my son. he said to me, i'm frightened when you go to work, because i don't know if you're coming back and not parts your soul in to because it's true. we don't know if we're coming back of his has told us that a would between the sinaloa and the halifax co, new generation, cartels is causing havoc in the state. they're forced to either choose sides or to fight both, and they don't have the equipment to do that. even when they are. and you to melinda, the bulletproof vests are out of date. they were out of date by february 2020 or helmets. and that's about 5060 percent of that original assistance with our vehicles were struggling with an infinity of mechanical problems. that's common in the countries, many police forces, but deadly when you're in the middle of

a call tell will still the biggest problem said this officer who will need us to hide his identity is a lack of support from the top. i was in there. basically, the bosses don't speak to us, we don't even really know with the directories the a plan strategy objectives. right now we don't have them with when we interviewed the head of one of the states municipal forces, what he sang a very different to independent the meant the either we have a lot of coordination these moments apart from the attacks on us. you can check the statistics, murders have gone down. a lot of what we have to do is lift up the values. we have this human values from the moment that we go out on the street for when a small child is still trusted, says hello, an old lady says, you know what, god bless you. beautiful sentiments from the top. well, dozens of b cups from around the state like an ester bond, yellows a being murdered. john homan, al jazeera mexico,
