residential areas. he says one person is dead there and another 5 have been wounded . we have correspondence in russia and ukraine in a moment. we'll get the latest from moscow with house amount, but a 1st is a bus driver who's joining us from western ukraine. and livia saying, tell us what you've been seeing and hearing on the grounds. one of the recent statements from ukrainian president waters lensky was that the positive signals from russia have not stopped the showing of the cities here and ukraine. and that is very true. and the prevailing wisdom of ukrainian leaders that we've spoken to, as well as ukrainian people we've spoken to, is that any sort of talk from the russians of slowing down any attacks of pulling out of any work can't be taken at face value. those words cannot be trusted. they must watch what russian forces are doing on the ground. and what we have seen from people, what we've been hearing is that nothing that russia's doing can be seen as a retreat of any kind of russian forces or regrouping to concentrate their forces

elsewhere. they are regrouping at this point in time. we see an observable escalation and attacks in the west of the country just over night to more fuel depos destroyed here in the west of the country. and this, the russian ministry of defense says what's to hinder. the capacity of your current government to resupply its forces that are fighting in the don bus region so seen as targeting strategic civil and military targets in the west of the country. when it comes to keep the capital and turn to give russia said that it was going to slow it's attacks are pulled back from those areas. but we've seen ongoing attacks on the capital as well as more attacks, ensuring to give overnight the regional governor when a sarcastic kind of statement this morning. his tone was clearly sarcastic. and the statement that he made, he said the decrease of russian activity was seen in the way of more air strikes throughout the night. targeting civilian infrastructure. he said, library shopping centers, malls as well as homes. residential houses were under attack insurance to give

region. and he said that they did observe troop movements in that area as well. russian troop movements still active in turn to give, according to the governor of trinity of region in the city. overnight you strong language to admonish the russian invade, invading russian forces. and really this is likely to go towards a general era of anger and an air of distrust ukrainians feel towards the russians as they continue negotiations to try to resolve this conflict loosely. okay, thank you. so my name is robbie reporting from the west of ukraine. that's not bringing hash mind about he's joining us from moscow. so what are we to make of the russian claims that there are di, escalating, in particular in the key region one was just reporting. they've noticed, in fact, anything but at the escalation, hashem, the re and we have new statements now coming from the russian ministry of defense, saying that the russian troops of be grouping in ukraine to focus more on

new funds and took focus on the priority funds for them and to complete the liberation of don bus by dawn. but to me, the 2 eastern provinces of a guns under the ask we have to remind our view of that. in the past, russia survey managed to make significant gains in la guns with 93 percent without territory under the control, yet to further expand territory against into the ask and that all the core military objectives in kiev and shouldn't ago have been completed. now we have to wait and see what does it means that the grouping emitted to returns. and how are we going to see the future of the mitchell operations, particularly in the don bus region, thus, whether bus missed you had missing over the last few days. stage one is finished, stage 2 is going to be mainly about the focus of

a dumbass region at the same time. so gala for all the rest, the minutes. so for the 1st said that the there are the follow the talks with the grading that concerned. there's significant progress and that the guts from the craniums confirmations that they are going to acquire nuclear weapons. they're not going to join they to the are and that the and that the ukrainians understand that the crimea and the don't bus issues are finally closed. the russian hobby thing from day one that they would like to see the cray is ignite ukraine, crimea, as part of russia and the self proclaimed republics of the guns and junior independent states. and that is absolutely no way they're going to compromise those issues. so this is the latest, as far as the russian government is concerned, both of the military front and all the diplomatic frontline. thank you so much.
