due at the double bond, russia began its 39th day, a full scale aggression with a missile strike. your desert region was among the priority goals enemy continued its vile practice of destroying critical infrastructure. according to preliminary data, there are no victims of the book, but let's figure out our correspondence stephanie decker, whose i, for us in western ukraine individual. ah, stephanie. so is this the start of it, of a full scale assault on odessa? i think we'll have to wait and see. it's certainly the 1st time that strikes of this magnitude have targeted the strategic port city. we were there for just over a week here and there have been massage launch at the city always from the black sea fleet. a lot of air defense systems in places while we saw those a lot of evenings. but this is the 1st time that the russians have targeted the fuel des pose. they are saying that they're using those at the ukrainians or using
1:03 pm
them to resupply the troops in michel, i of nikolai of is the city that is really the front line, if you will. the last port of call until russian troops could get to odessa, that the soldiers there of managed to push the russians back over the last couple of weeks. and i will have to wait and see whether this is going to result in a renewed a put push on nikolai and when it comes to john ford ground forces. because particularly if you listen to military analysts, they will tell you that any sort of fear of a naval landing, which in the beginning of this conflict, had been feared on odessa. they've mind the beaches in preparations for this, but many people will tell you that unless ground troops are closer to that strategic city, ukraine's biggest port, then the naval landing would not be possible. but certainly, this is the 1st time that we've seen a strike of this magnitude, anessa. steph, as you say, you spent some time there reporting in recent weeks. what was your sense of what people were telling you around what they were going to do in this eventuality?
1:04 pm
because they were preparing for a russian attack yes, the city has had weeks to protect prepare because they know that they are at some point going to be on the target list because of the strategic importance of a desa. so they've been preparing and the sense of fortifying the city it is heavily fortified. sandbags tank traps all over the place. really a very sensitive when it comes to what media can and cannot feel when it comes to the military was information not very forthcoming. the residents who've stayed and probably still about half the population of the city, very defiant. many people also joined the territorial army of the territorial defences. and we also did a story on, on civilians who simply do not want a fight, but wanting to teach themselves how to operate a weapon. if it came to that one man telling us, you know, i don't want to fight, i've never operated a weapon. i don't feel like i'm ready to operate a gun,
1:05 pm
but if they come to my house, i feel i need to defend it and defend my city. so there's a lot of defiance there are. but again, you know, we'll have to wait and see because ground troops still very much a stuck, if you will in be collide, which is around a 2 hour drive away from odessa. all right, thank you for that update. stephanie deca, their lawn force in a division in western ukraine. and ukraine says it has evidence of war crimes in butcher, a town north west of cave, after the withdrawal of russian troops video from their shows, bodies in the streets, and hastily dog mass grave. moscow denies targeting civilians and rejects war crime allegations are warning some images in st. basra vs report may be disturbing. ukrainian forces have retaken the entire keith region, but russia's retreat comes at a high price. northwest of the capital,

1:08 pm
ukrainians? fear could be the 1st of many instances of community shattered by this war. zane basra, the older 0 levine, pakistan as a whole. the new election in the next 90 days, the president has dissolved parliament under no confidence motion against prime minister among con, was dismissed without a vote. i thought i thought if we've got a formula on there, the deputy speaker declared the motion unconstitutional saying as part of a plot by what he calls foreign powers, the opposition believes it had the numbers to asked con, cuz several political allies had abandoned him. and scott, osama bin j. now he turns his lie from islam avant osama. ah, so this is a done deal then, or is this a done deal then? puck sounds go into actions. well, not really. if you hear from the opposition,
1:09 pm
they're still at the national assembly, they're continuing our read the session. they have elected their own, our parliamentary speaker, i. our psychic is in the chair and there is a shadow session that is underway. a 195 members, according to the leader of the opposition are still there. they clearly have more than a $170.00 do. and bees required to elect a or are these prime minister of pakistan. so it is a legal limbo and a constitutional crisis that by august on find itself in, on the one hand, the president has dissolved the assembly. on the other hand, the opposition has a brought into question, the decision by the deputy speaker, to throw out their version of no confidence and to discuss that further are we, however, the satire abdullah a prominent human race defender, who calls this, not just a constitutional crisis but a human rights crisis in a and rights of people crisis white i her and haven't at the prime minister done the legal course of action to go to words election. so no, he has not done the legal thing. he has done the illegal thing. he has done an
1:10 pm
unconstitutional act, and he should be tried for treason under articles $5.00 and $6.00 of the constitution of pakistan. that's the 1st thing i'd like to say. the 2nd thing, and this pains me and saddened me a lot, is that he calls himself a sportsman. the former captain of a winning a world cup winning cricket team of pakistan. is this the way you sure, your sporting spirit? this is a 100 percent absence of sporting spinet. this is not the way a sportsman play. you don't behave like a tantra me, but throwing a tantrum when you don't get your way. you do not behave like the privileged elite that you are, but he is the privileged elite of pakistan and the elite capture of pakistan. but what happens next now, because if the bread prison has dissolved assembly, ah opposition to do whatever they want. but the they have to go towards an election
1:11 pm
don't. they're not yet. you're forgetting the 3rd pillar of the state, which is the judiciary. i have hopes, high hopes and great expectations from the supreme court of pakistan. and i hope that it will be a full court, a full bench hearing this constitutional case brought by the office combined opposition. and i hope that they will not repeat the mistakes of the past. i'm thinking here of 1979, when an elected prime minister was, was, ah, good, judicially executed by then supreme court a fox than under a military dictatorship. we are not under a military dictatorship now. but heaven forbid that this constitutional crisis lurches towards a stage where we do not as, as
1:12 pm
a law abiding bid, 3 arctic citizen of barcus bond, forget the human rights defender. i do not wish to see a military court at all. i do not wish to see another military dictatorship. on the other hand, i do not wish to see unconstitutional acts by a so called elected aust, selected for my prime minister in moran hon. but do you see that there is an actual threat of a military coup in burgersson? if things continue to go the way they are? because the opposition, the prime ministers or the law minister invoked article 5, there was a ruling or by the speaker of the parliament if it, if they don't abide by that and continue a shadow cabinet, it's not going to resolve things. is this a banana republic, or is it to constitutional republic? do we still believe and that all of law and constitution and a parliament and a supreme court ought to have be said good bye to all of that. and you know, it's like a free for all in a banana republic. no. this is not a banana republic yet. despite implant hon wanting to make it so look at this. have
1:13 pm
you ever seen anything like this during a nevada not confident what? what the expecting all this this this, this shutting down the the besieging off this summer got that looked like a fort. why are they afraid of violence? are they extreme? if afraid of, of a civilian, you know, a violent takeover. are they afraid of a military take? what the hell is going on? yeah. i, i honestly feel that this is not going to turn into a banana republic if the millions of pakistani, so feel and think and act like i do have a needs it little say in the matter. but you see that hundreds of thousands of people are stu, support, emerald hon. they said they will vote for him. it is going to and it isn't point $6000000.00 isn't, isn't it? just a 2nd is under the constitutional right for them to go out and vote and elect a new government. you want to talk figures. let's talk data. 6.6000000 people voted for him. this is a country of 230000000 plus people. so is that
1:14 pm
a majority of the electorate? no, no, i am not here. taught to defend the wrongs done by the b a mel, end b, m l cured the p p b the and b, the m q m, et cetera, et cetera. the all the letters of the alphabet. no, they have done a lot of frogs. but my, i have a tiny little glimmer of hope somewhere far down the donna that they might have learnt some very serious lessons from the blunders and mistakes of their past their blunders. if they have not then, then heaven helps. thank you very much. that fire of dollar, prominent human rights defender are talking to us about the situation that is unfolding in the capital. the state minister for information says that electrons will be held in 90 days. the deputy attorney general has resigned from the government, seeing what was taking place in the national assembly was unconstitutional. we're hearing reports that lawyers are bleeding their case are, are going to plead their case to words the supreme court of like
1:15 pm
a son. so it's all in a flood, sir. yes, the president has dissolved assemblies. yes. the government to seeing that there might be election the next 90 days, but it is not set in stone. all right, thank you. after that, i some have been to their law for us in islam of art or no prime minister has completed a 5 year term and pakistan since independence in 1947. the 1st law caused ali khan served 4 years before he was assassinated in 1951. in 1972 neural our means term in office was the shortest lasting only 13 days before he was forced out. and the only freeman, l prime minister, and as their brutal lead for 2 years until her party lost control of parliament. rhetoric as him can as a political analyst and former minister of state for information he is in islamabad and joins us now. thanks for your time. ah sir, how can this confidence motion just be thrown out when it was already tabled?
1:16 pm
well, this is the situation. this is unconstitutional and this should not have been done because it was already accepted. that is going to be working today. and just shortly before the walking to the took place, why you should have taken place. they called it off. so this is all gun constitution illegal. and i'm glad that the supreme court has taken notice stream course. chief justice 1st called a meeting of the justices at home. now the supreme court has been opened and always presumed that they're going to have full hearing of the case. and we should clear something pretty shortly. how quickly does this need to happened? because as you say, the supreme court is looking at this, the opposition is going to take this to the supreme court. but if parliament has already been resolved in the meantime, which it appears it has been and will it will be too late. no, i was reading through your one of your reporters report in the,
1:17 pm
in the news which is reported in your your debt that the supreme court has done the national assembly has rejected the. ready confidence again, which is the case. in fact, a just after the after the speaker, after that up to speak and remove the assembly, they immediately had the meeting, according to the go to the game, and then the boarding took place and 195 members. parliament wanted against the firm. in other words, lot of fun today because supposed to have 172 people working to make a successful 195, which wanted against him, john so that he's no longer the brand. mr. i want to ask you about sort of looking back, looking at the history, as we've said,
1:18 pm
no prime minister has completed a full 5 year term and pocket on why is that? i know, i know there's been various reasons, i mean, a fascination losing control of, of parliament. but is there any common thread which runs through some of them at least that has led to this? if it could be a good question, but said if you're going to give a definite answer, maybe a new democracy, country in 7 to 5 years, but a new country, it's not a long time. so maybe it'll take time to do that and centuries to establish themselves maybe both and needs time as well to say this is all right. hi, thank you very much for your time for your take on things. teresa was in con, a political analyst and foreman minister of state for information. thank you very much. indeed. thank. vote is in hungry, are casting their ballots in an election, overshadowed by the war and neighboring ukraine. i minister victor or van is
1:19 pm
a long time ally, ally rather of russian president vladimir putin and was hoping to extend his 12 year term. the race is the closest in years opposition. parties came together to put up a single candid since got at andrew simmons, his in the capitol, budapest, and you said voting is underway? are there any indications now of which way it might go? yes, good morning. from budapest, a sunny morning, a steady stream of voters are going in to vote. and the way it's looking right now is that opinion polls are closing in on a situation whereby the opposition looked to be getting distanced from that. a whole goal of overturning victor all benz power. and he's now been prime minister for 12 years. and he's looking for a 4th term known by some as the political thug who has very scant
1:20 pm
regard for human rights. are seen by others as a solid figure, a man who can deliver on stability and family, and that has a high regard for family life. but he does have a close relationship with larry mir putin that is controversial. he also pushes against the european union. he is the longest serving prime minister within the e u. now, however, he does get into conflict with them on a whole range of issues, media, freedom, what, what one of them, and what's more, he is in a situation whereby he's really in, into camps worn with russia. the other with the west that you would think would weaken his position, but he's trying to turn that to his own advantage by suggesting that he's
1:21 pm
a man of peace. when the opposition, he says, are all really wanting to go with nato and i'm an arm even more of the ukrainian military. he's saying he doesn't want that to happen. he won't already or any terms whatsoever, allow it to happen. so you have a situation where he's trying to turn it to his own advantage, and he is seen by many people as a stable figure. and that could mean that those opinion polls showing that he is gaining a a better lead is, in fact the case with this election has a little bit more. he would about the, the opposition alliance. how they managed to come together to put forward a single candidate. yeah, interesting. it is all about peter, mark he sigh a. he is an independent mer. he's not actually an m p a he, he obviously wants to be one in this election and he's started a movement to try to bring opposition parties altogether. now he succeeded in doing
1:22 pm
that, there are 6 parties, some of them left wing southern center is he is a conservative just like victor or van. but he wants to actually get to the point where they have a coalition he's, he's a is a smart operator, he's, he's popular with a young man with the old and he is insistent that he can do it. now, the weakness is that the desperate parties that will he have a united stand in power if he was to get it as, as an, as their united right. now that is a question mark and he is also, he is conservative, as i said earlier, and he's pushing home a message that he wants to be on the side of europe. not russia. that doesn't necessarily go down well with all people from hungary. a lot of people do support russia. something like 30 to 40 percent and fit is. the governing party is
1:23 pm
right wing, it's, it's for solidarity with russia and also with europe. and there is a, as a, a strong feeling that, that all bam is connected to business. so people's lives will be enriched with him . and things will be unstable with the opposition potentially at a time of crisis like this with warren ukraine. it's a good time to have a strong figure that is the position with all bound. so we're, we're, we are, i think likely to see that all van will take power and his will be as 4th term in office. but no guarantee of that opinion polls can't always be relied upon the could be a surprise. no, of course. we have learned that either he is heavily andrew sin in there for us in budapest. thank you. also in budapest, vice skype is guy, ryan, i an analyst at the center for fair political and lamp analysis rather thank you for your time. so. 7 apart from the banding together of the opposition,
1:24 pm
what else makes this election different and makes it so close now? well, especially the economic situation, i think because the last time that there was a global economic ben gerber comic issues in 2008, 2009 that's been or my mom, he's landslide. and ever since the global economy has been doing pretty well. and with that hungry and economy was going pretty well. but now when they call it crisis and all the inflation and all the other issues that had brought on their economic issues that are very much on the minds of borders that could make it more difficult for or one to another turn. i talked about this about. 1 responded andrew earlier, but i want to put the question to you, how to hungarians, feel about, or bounce close relationship with president fusion, given everything that's happening in ukraine right now. well, it's a very difficult thing to frame for
1:25 pm
a fetus. and they are trying to put it as they are the peaceful party. why the opposition is a trigger. happy militant party. i mean it's on party in the selection. and that's the contrast that they are trying to draw on, that they are not choosing sides writers on ski, nor put in why the opposition is trying to put forward that. yeah, yeah, this is, this is a person who allied himself be put in. and this is a sign that he's pulling hungry away from, you know, instead of towards europe. so that's basically a contrast. but hungarians really, really don't want to get into this military conflict. and that's why the message of urban has been working quite well. and also ukraine doesn't have a good reputation between gary ends because there is a sizable 100 in minority in ukraine that has had issues with the current, the ukranian administration. so there is also that he story that doesn't make it easy for hon, getting the trust ukraine in general. ok, what would i need
1:26 pm
a name for hungry and for its foreign policy, its relationship with russia and its attitude toward the west. it's a definitely mean a, a big shift, a b guarantee opposition parties have very good dice to certain western parties to brussels through the you and they will definitely be more in the they will dana themselves, more of a distance is nato and the you, as that's for certain, now the issue is, can they be a united when they are governing and candy make united united stance is against russia against any other any other phone that the west may have? the that's kind of question because the scholarship is so divers, medically related if it were for one person to beverly, especially because the candidate that mike is like doesn't have you have his own barky. so he support is basically just based on his personal popularity. all right,
1:27 pm
thank you very much for your time. and i there an analyst at the center for fed political analysis elections also being held in serbia. both of the deciding whether president alexander voucher should have a 2nd term. as in hungary, the election made up has been dominated by russia invasion of ukraine. british has campaigned on promises of peace and stability elections in choosing the president parliament and local authorities in the capital, belgrave just want to come to saw including india, introduces a tax on crypto currency. we look at whether it could put off investors and real madrid close in on the spanish lee title. i'd say, would that and more helpful for ah
