ukraine's president compares the destruction inflicted on mary pope to that of aleppo in syria also ahead. the saudi led coalition retaliate after gibbons, who the rebels? he is an oil facility in jetta. close to the venue of sundays formula. one event. ah, he was president joe biden has described russian president vladimir putin as a butcher while making ukrainian refugees by them was at a center in warsaw where some of the more than 2000000 people who fled to poland is staying. the kremlin has said the remarks further narrow the possibility from mending relations. violence, comments come about awake after he referred to putin as a war criminal. you know, you're dealing every day with whatever your potent, what he's done to be. what does it make you think? is a butcher?

do you make additional claim? the guy? thank you. our white house correspondent, kimberly hell kit. easy in warsaw, covering biden's trip. kimberly strong language again coming from the president. what should we make of it? oh, we should make of it is that the u. s. president is in tend to on seeing that much of the carnage that the world is seen on television in ukraine, that vladimir putin, the russian president, will be held accountable for that at least according to the u. s. president who has certainly not mince words. you heard there, he called vladimir putin a butcher, a it's in reference to the fact that the u. s. believes that bladder report news targeting civilians deliberately in ukraine and as a result the u. s. has also alleged not just the u. s. president, but also the secretary of state that repeal putin is guilty of war crimes. and so

as a result, when you use a term like that, it has legal implications and connotations, including potential prosecution in the international criminal court. and so the u. s. president, clearly making the case of using the sort of the allies of the world on his 3 days of meetings that he has had here in europe to underscore this point, to make back case one that we expect. he will also make as he delivers a major foreign policy speech and becoming ours. and what can we expect from met speech? kimberly well, wait segue. the u. s. president is really going to culminate the various points he has made throughout these 3 days of emergency meetings on the russian invasion of ukraine. not only is he going to stress coordination when it comes to security, but he's also going to stress the importance of unity. you heard the president as

he spoke earlier, as he met with the president of poland. stressing that if this conflict is to be go beyond ukraine's borders, that nato will defend any of those countries, poland, or any of the other eastern european countries that may be effected, and that the united states has the sacred commitment to doing so. but we also know it's going to go beyond that. the u. s. president is going to make the case that will pull and may be absorbing the majority of refugees that are come out of ukraine. that this is an international and shared responsibility of all nato countries. to make sure that those that are fleeing violence have somewhere to go. so he spent the president to talk about that. and finally, we expect the president to also underscore why he believes this is a potentially tipping point in history. and other words that the united states in conjunction with its partners and allies and that of the free world really need to

fight to defend what the u. s. president believes is so important at stake right now, and that is the future of democracy's over a talk receives where she believes latimer person is pushing among other world leaders. ok, not apple core spectra a little later when that speech gets underway. kimberly how could live for us in war. so thank you. let's head to ukraine now. way several blocks have been heard in the western city of levine, thick black smoke could be seen billowing into the sky. rub mcbride joins us from living. rob, but what more can you tell us about these explosions? yeah, this is now being confirmed to be a missile attack on a fuel demco here in levine. it is about a 2, possibly 3 kilometers from where we are here. this happens nearly an hour and a half ago. let me just stand back and that pizza his zoom in to show you what's happening. that we are still seeing huge amounts of billowing smoke from just over

the hill. that is the other side of the old city, the old central part of the v, but is very historic town between us is that the old part of the city, it's historic buildings, the town whole. but we do believe, according to the mass office that this was a strike on a fuel deco we've seen also pictures from the other side, confirming that the fuel on fire. so it is really continues to burn very strongly. we know from the mass office that it was apparently to missiles with that also that the confirming that 5 people have been injured. the missiles, but the colleagues were actually out in the square of the shooting in the square filming doing an interview with the city with cities. just after that they had to a couple of big thumps. there was an air raid in an operation at the time these rates go off constantly here in the vive. but because we are in the old part of the

city with no obvious targets, a lot of people there has to be said in this part of the beef. nobody just go about the every day business. and they were doing that in the town square. when these big stumps were heard, and suddenly according to my colleagues, that was a, a sudden hush, a sudden silence people basically just stopped and looked around, started checking the mobile phones, other people starting to make their way towards shelters. we haven't had many attacks here in the west of ukraine. louis, there was an attack about 10 days ago that was on a, a, an aircraft repair facility. and fact, almost exactly in the opposite direction from where we're standing to this block that was about 6 kilometers away. again, those were the missiles fired into this, this craft repair facility, which destroyed that facility. and we've had this explosion here been here now, but it has to be said that we don't often have these kind of attacks in this part

of ukraine. and i think there was a sense with, especially after vitamin putins, talking about the operations in the east that, that was what the russian forces were going to be concentrating on. possibly maybe disengaging, if you like from other parts of ukraine. i think there was a hope amongst a number of people that maybe we would start doing things wind down. well, obviously with this attack, people are thinking a guy, we've been out in the streets talking to people and they really do seem quite shaken up by this events and what they have seen here this afternoon. all right, thank you very much. rob mcbride live pressing the wave, and we're looking at some live pitches now of flames, and that really doc black smoke. so clearly things under control at the moment, but we'll cross back to you with more little later. thank you very much. rob mcbride, you crying president has drawn comparison between the war in his country and the years long as syrian conflict. russia is

a key ally of serious government speaking via video linked to the doe, how foreign learning means the landscape said the besiege port city a marion pole had been destroyed in much the same way is serious left. he also pushed forum highest cutter to increase its natural gas production to counter what he called the threat to 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 exports of energy resources. and they can make their contribution to the stabilisation in europe. they can do much to restore justice, the future of your breasts with your efforts. it depends on your assets. 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. cut has a mere shake, tammond been hammered, l sony opened v event. he said katara stood in solidarity with the people of

ukraine. while also highlighting the plight of those suffering in the mid late, not too long and where we stand in solidarity with the millions of innocent people and refugees who've been victimized by this unjust war. and geopolitical calculation is either while stressing the solidarity. i would like in this context to remind us of the millions of palestinians who 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 africans for whom the international community has failed to render. justice mohammed val has more from the forum. this isn't in to see how sad chosen his words very carefully knowing the ordeal of what he's going to say today. what he said is, addressing the on a boat, he's addressing the people in the middle east, and he chose his words, as i said, very well. talked about the month of ramadan, the fact that the listings of ukraine, instead of plastic in peace and tranquility,

they are forced to take up arms and defend our nation. that shouldn't, shouldn't be the case. this should be a month of peace. so that's a bit, those are very good words to be addressed to the out of people facility and listening here in the middle east. you also can fail ukraine, that with russia with syria saying what's happening and you kind of like now looks like pretty much like what, what russia did in syria, the destruction of mario paul. he can fail due to the dysfunction of other po in syria. he said, we are invaded by our neighbors and this is not just against ukraine. this is an assault on democracy and assault on human rights and assault on human values. and he asked people in the middle east as well as people of the world to walk right with ukraine to be up, to show us one more song to dorothy with you can including not appeal or cut out in

please it's production of natural gas politically. he and as i said, he knew what he was talking about. and that has been a part of speech, use 2 different companies, monuments of different countries, addressing each student with the words that could be had favorably indoctrination. he crane and russia, meanwhile, had agreed on opening 10 humanitarian cardoso. but people in mary paula having to use their own means of transport to get out of a besieged, seen him ran. com, has those details from keith. the russians and their craniums have negotiated 10 humanitarian corridors to be opened on saturday. one of those is in the besieged city of murray. awful. but 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 aid into 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 shelling, 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 these humanitarian corridors, russia doesn't abide by the sci 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 towns, we're hearing that the shelling is still continuing. your grains military says russian forces have entered the city of sla, watch north of cave, west staff working at the child, general complex live. they used to get to the spurs. people protesting against the presence of russian troops earlier, ukrainian officials said the mayor of savoy had been objected to late. they sang russian forces have also seen over city hospital, ukrainian resistance and logistical problems. i 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. that has been preparing for a russian assault for weeks. now we are in the city center, it is heavily fortified. we need special permission to get her in. the military is

very specific, insensitive, but what we can and cannot film that is also an element of psychological warfare happening here. we're told you could hear the shelling from the russian fleet constantly, also ukrainian air defense systems 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 . supersonic. hello mor this tuition is heating up with you, 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 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. still a hair done al jazeera ah proteus, seen afghan as donna the taliban reverse is its decision to reopen secondary schools for girls class retaliation in yemen. after who the rebels strang deep inside at saudi arabia. ah, ah, look forward to brighter scores with sponsored boy cattle at ways. hello there. it's all about the pre monsoon heat. when it comes to south asia, we've got some heat wave conditions for india and that northwest corner edging into central areas, temperatures touching into 40 degrees, we are expecting nose to climb on monday to similar story for pakistan that

ukraine have been considerably reduced, which makes it possible. i emphasize at once again to focus our core. if it's on achieving the main goal, the liberation of dawn, bests, hashem or how barbara has the latest from moscow. if the remember says, the thought of the bitter campaign he was called by the russians, special operation, or that for the protection of the people of the dumbass region, which is the la ganske and the 20th. so from a russian perspective, the war started because they said they had a grievances above the atrocities committed against the russian speaking communities in those ridges. and that the reason why they interfered is because they wanted to provide service. so significant support for those people. and this also explains why one of the main prerequisites for the russians when it comes to any comprehensive settlement with the ukrainians ease for the ukrainians to recognize both la ganske antonia as an independent or states. now the russian ministry is saying that it has, are targeted

a $117.00 military facilities across ukraine, destroying i'm edition, to pose and to aircraft systems, shutting down, shutting down 3 of fighter jets and trying to prevent the russian murder, the ukrainian army from rebuilding the facilities and the infrastructure that has been targeted over the last few weeks. and that the now the aim is to further expand some of the territorial gain made particularly ill. ganske and dani ask rash is invasion of ukraine has sparked solidarity rallies around the world of ease alive peaches out of london, trafalgar square. but tens of thousands of people have marched in an hour rally to send a message of supporting unit rates. the people are really crane. we are expecting to hear a video message from matt ukraine's president for letting me zalinski. at some stage, the protest is calling for a no fly zone. protein home landon's near city can is also taking paddle

protocol attention by the wall money in the international community. try to make the situation norman, and try to have an optimistic approach for the situation and up on the sun with the hope that things would change positively. especially when it comes to the woman and goes right onto cosivity under presentation of all the power structure. but we know that over time that optimism changed to this appointment, especially it happened when the taliban actually turned, but our guys from north of the schools, literally. this was the biggest one for all of us. on the 23rd of march to see god going to school. and we saw all those heartbreaking images of god's being returning from the doorsteps of your schools to the home. it actually disappointed innovation to become more repulsive and we know lately to have not only stop goes from indication, but also they have the you to be the house conducting house such as extra admitted
