12:04 am
a man con is alive in ukraine's capital kiva. emma, what does the video kitty show? well before i talk to you through the video, this narrates higher, and as i see, just going all ha, not far from where we are. so that might have a problem. we may have a problem listening to the audio. in the video, we're not going to show you the video because it's 40 graphic, but i am going to take you through it. i'm going to watch it. what it shows at the very beginning is 2 soldiers long on the ground. there's blood streaming out of them, but one of them is still alive, the shouting in russian. he still alive filled these marauders. he says, look, he still alive and then gunshots actually ring out. and then there's a pause and they shout again. and then there's another fall volley of gunshots. now in total, 5 people are being killed in this video to you actually see being killed. the camera, them pans round to show more bodies on the street, more blood streaming out of their bodies. now this actually took place on or around
12:05 am
the 30th of march, holding to the new york times. we say that she verified the video was just southwest of gucho. it's a road that we actually have traveling up and down every time we've been to boucher now at the time around that highly ukrainian defense forces where tweeting that this was a precision operation against you. crazy. i think it's russian forces that they manage to hit them and they manage to hold a convoy. now, along that road, we saw evidence of that that were destroyed on each russian tanks or across one section of the street. what this appears to show is not particularly that column, but a retreating russian soldiers who were then effectively killed. now the men are speaking russian according to russians, think is that we've been speaking to be showing them the video. they have a co pays an accident from the campuses. highly likely to be a georgian,
12:06 am
there are georgian legions that are fighting alongside ukrainian forces. oh, oh, but the ukrainian army, the new york time certainly has a safe and says they have evidence of that as well. now, previous videos about the destruction of the russian army column, also back up the fact that they were russians who are trying to escape. and indeed, 3 large journalists have been showing and reporting that some of those people were actually ambush. the video continues with the perennial pulse is wandering around the dead body, and then they begin to charge a global u camino. they say love a ukraine, which means long live ukraine. a man can thank you very much for that ashen. albert is live 1st in moscow now, and we understand that the video is being played widely in russia. what sort of
12:07 am
reaction is that mean? lauren, the video was ad on all that t v stations here in russia yesterday, it was on social media the whole day. and the russian authorities said that they have lost an investigation into the incident, which they say took place on the 30th march on the outskirts of kia. they say that they have identified 3 ukrainian soldiers plus a georgian national in that video, shooting at the injured russian soldiers. at the same time today, a, the mikhail was in sept. where is the of the national defense management center. the ministry of defense has accused your campaign of committing acts of atrocities against russian prisoners war. and he said that he wants the international community, the when france,
12:08 am
germany and turkey to help get access to those prisoners of war. he said that the corinthians have not been forthcoming when it comes to providing access to get more information about what happened and the fate of the russian prisoners of the same time. he said there was supposed to be today a prisoner's exchange, but that didn't happen. and he blamed the ukrainian government for failing to deliver on a commitment to swap prisoners today. now, lauren, as far as that video is concerned, the russians have been saying that it's clear, it clearly demonstrates what they have been saying in the past. basically, they have been accusing the while they describe as nationalists and nazis in the ukranian army of committing acts of atrocities against prisoners of war. they say
12:09 am
that these are the same units which committed whether describe acts of atrocities in the past on russian speaking communities. in ukraine and particularly in the dorm bus. and they say this explains the reason why where they launched their military operation in the ukraine, ukraine to protect those communities and to protect people, elegance and to new york. and yesterday, everyone who came on board, all the officials who are talking, if you remember yesterday, the statement by the united, by the russian ambassador to the un, by the spokesperson of the kremlin, here, by all the russian officials, it will always mentioning the nazis and the nationalists and this, from the russian perspective are the key elements are committing. what does it russians have been saying, atrocities against the russian speaking community in the ukraine, and they say, we have told the ukrainians for many years on the need to climb down on those
12:10 am
people. and they said they have never received a response from the ukranian government. and then when we've lost patients, decided to ticket on that into their own hands. to start the military operation, which they say ultimately now is focusing on the very eastern part of the equation, which is in a dorm bus region where you have the sub declared republics of law ganske and yes, and they say they will ultimately continue that operation until the ensure that the communities are safe and they can control that territory. and with the perspective from mosley i thank you very much. jennifer natalie to may not is an electron international politics at king's college, london, and author of ideology and mass killing the radical security politics of genocides and deadly trustees joins us now. live by scott, thank you very much. need for being with us. soon in the last few days we've had allegations about russian forces committing atrocities. now, reports that ukrainian on forces might have shot at russia. soldiers had been taken
12:11 am
prisoner. what would you make of this nation's petition, which we've just been talking about? well obviously, i mean both the kind of developments you've been describing really hiring images that we've seen of war crimes in russian occupied areas, but also now the new fidget, which is which i've just seen in the last half hour testify to the increasing kind of brutalization of this complex, obviously, i think some people might think, oh, you see kind of crime by this inaudible as well. to some extent, all was in both significant civilian suffering. but this kind of to be a violation of the rules of war is not universal. it's specific to certain complex and the evidence so far with the get been much more widespread in areas of russian occupations, particular against civilians. but obviously that have also been a few isolated, more isolated limited reports of crimes like the one that appears to be shown in the video that you just were discussing. ukrainian pulse is engaging in violation
12:12 am
of the well as well. so we're seeing more, more evidence coming out of the conflict now of this kind of pretty severe brutalization or radicalization of the bottom and the generation into these kinds of significant crimes. i mean, you said that this isn't a given that this happens. and what would you say the factors, in this case that appear to lead to this kind of brutality? well, we have, i think, slightly different dynamics on the 2 side. so on the russian side, we've seen some pretty alarming developments in the last few days. obviously increasing evidence not just the kind of indiscriminate shalon that we were seeing in places like america, but actually talking to killings of civilians in large groups on the ground. and accompanied by kind of a broker, genocidal rhetoric back in russia and russian politics on state back media. and so we can't really connect those to it's not obvious that atrocities on the ground on
12:13 am
the russian side, necessarily being driven by genocidal sentiments, although i think is a reasonable chance that they are more evidence will tell on the credit. inside the picture is somewhat different. we haven't seen, i mean, someone surprisingly, given the ukrainians, fighting in our territory, hadn't seen bonds. billions we have seen is some of these reports much more limited over size, all ukrainian violations against russian prison or there. i think that's much more about radicalization and what is clearly about i'm polarized conflicts probably combined with some limits and ukrainian come on control in a conference at this time. so i think there's somewhat different dynamics going on on the, on the 2 sides. as we said, these are really quite different patterns of bonds that we're seeing from the articles. and you know, what we've seen with, with that, with russia when it's been accused of these crimes is a total denial of it's not not true tool and do what we expect from the ukrainian or 30. do you think that will be a commitment from the ukraine, you know, 42 to investigate what sources have been accused of wrongdoing in new paps,
12:14 am
it says to protect what might be the truth? yeah, this only needs to be that kind of response, an acknowledgement that was a notable only incident also reported. i haven't been verified. i think about a week ago, all of the ukrainian forces being accused of killing russian prisoners of war using russian prisoners of war. and on that occasion, the credit government, no, she would like to know it said it was investigating. and the crimes like this, we're not committed stall. as you say, that's a very different response from what we call the russian side, which, which is really been complete blanket denials and claims what are very clearly now the stage documented atrocities by it's military forces are all fabrications, have been committed by the ukrainian so the responses roles are quite different, but obviously that the pressure on ukrainian government military to show that they are really going about off with the serious investigation into, into the event that you were just having discussing in wants to sort of thing
12:15 am
starts happening. what's to prevent it getting any worse? i mean, all the, in, from your research study to other areas it makes, makes it possible to sort of say that kind of thing down. it's extremely difficult . on the one hand, you know, the russians have a pretty serious degree of commodity console of that they could stop this kind of on a scale if they wanted to. which is why i mean a lot of different factors feed into why force use a car. it's not the simplest kind of government to decide that it's going to go on and that goes on. but it possible for the russian military forces to stop from happening if they want to leave the ukrainians need to investigate this incident seriously and try and prevent things like this happening before the really difficult truth of the matter here is that usually things like serious crimes and conflict tend to be stopped by one main thing, which is the defeat prices on all the perpetrators out of the areas where victims resides. that's why, to some extent,
12:16 am
these atrocities i suspect will follow the lines of this conflict. but the one thing i would say the public exposure is crucial and certainly there. ok, why international coverage, international observers and strong public combination about why haven't leave limited atrocities and incredibly important that the international community use it all of it power to monitor the situation closely. you satellite coverage in eastern ukraine to see what roughly military pulses, probably ukrainian military forces are doing. that kind of coverage is important as well. but it's no trying to lead a man out from that kings calling from the thank you very much indeed pertaining to torture. thank you. are you creating president? miss lensky has addressed islands to houses of parliament is fallacious in a string of speeches he's using to rally support. so then ski urged the international community to hold russia accountable for crimes committed on ukrainian soil. he received most, at least

12:19 am
bombardments. it does seem as though the russians are stepping up their efforts to completely take over the city. there is only just the that a small resistance in the center of the city and the russians have such a tight control. now around most of the outskirts of the city, that it's very difficult to get a lot of news out from, with the isn't controlled by the russians at the of there is a blame game going on between the 2 sides. the russians, both the, the 2 sides are blaming each other for the lack of humanitarian access getting into the town and humanitarian aid. presidents are zalinski of ukraine is going to want further in an interview with turkish media, accusing the russians of hiding evidence of war crimes in mary you, paul, that's why he says they are not allowing any external organizations such as the international committee of the red cross et cetera, to get access inside the city because he says that they want to keep control of the city to clean up effectively once they take control of the whole city to clean up

12:33 am
nature is warned, the war in ukraine could last months. even years. installed bergs as the delivery of more weapons to ukraine, will be discussed as native foreign ministers meeting brussels. we have seen no indication that the president putin has so changed his ambition to control the whole of ukraine on also to rewrite her the natural order. so we need to be prepared for a long haul. we need to support ukraine, sustain our sanctions, and strengthen our her defenses under our deterrence. because this can't last for long time on, we need to be prepared for that. the vastness following developments in brussels. what we've seen now in the last couple of days and weeks as well. also, especially after these images came out from a boot, chad that civilians there that there's been some correct appearing. it seems that
12:34 am
countries are calling out for more action, a more aggressive action. also by nato offensive weapons, possibly going to be sent to ukraine and others are much more careful. so that's a very interesting tone that he's striking there. and he's talking also about this strategic concept that plato is going to discuss during this meeting. you thought of a road map that made it was looking at the future sultan burg. earlier today said they're shifting a shift in the world order. so to say also because of what's happening in ukraine and with the russian invasion. so that's also on the table. how is nato looking at this new reality and how are they gonna prepare? so it's a very interesting discussion that we're going to see is salt and burke olds. it's very important in this new crucial face of the war in ukraine, russia and ukraine and blaming each other for naval mines found in turkish waters. 3 have been discovered in the black sea and basra straight since the war,
12:35 am
and ukraine began threatening vessels traveling through major maritime routes. i see them constantly, reports from miss tambo. they not only posed a danger to cruise, but also to global trade. with spikes a large metal ball floats in, a stumbles boss for a straight. it's a c mine built by the former soviet union turkish commandos. approach it carefully . the t you will diffuse the device and then remove it. is the 2nd time in 3 days. turkish fishermen have found a mind like this in their waters. last week, russia's main intelligence agents, us at 420 floating miles had drifted into the black sea after breaking off from cables near korean ports because of a storm. ukraine denied these claims. it says russia planted the mines with us. so i struck a former turkish, we're admiral j judge, it says the ties in the wind are diverting the minds towards the stumble. he believes the minds belong to ukraine or coalition. it would be illogical for russia
12:36 am
to mine ports in odessa, where it's aiming for a military landing. why would they shoot themselves? also, if these minds broke off so easily, it means the mining wasn't done properly. that makes one think the mines were left to float free in the black sea. international law allows states to lay sea minds in their waters to protect themselves from attack. but allowing mines to flow into international waters is illegal. to be leash, we let that the un should be questioning ukraine. turkey has a strong capacity to sweep the mines, but this is an irresponsible drug no matter who was responsible for the mines. they now pose a serious risk to local fishermen like shahan, who have been told not the fish at night. shine says when turkey diffused the minds in the sea last week, the explosion hit like an earthquake. yeah, good. i'm a sick when might know is volatile. if you don't see the mind, then you explode. you done with or me?
12:37 am
a slight contact is enough to do it. night fishing has been mel. thank god at the end of the season. but if we weren't peak season than the scenario would be different, we're expecting many more minds to drift by here on a month or so. the black sea is the major shipping outright for grain, oil, an oil products, turkish race, or the on the waterways trying get to the mediterranean and the agencies 38000 vessels pass through the strait of his stumble last year. any interruption or risk in this region could disrupt the global supply chain. at the same, it is not clear who is responsible for these mines or how many of them are floating out there, posing a threat to people and maria live on last. these questions are answered, it may take years to spot and disabled these explosive devices in the black sci fi nam, casala, al jazeera, assemble, or, and gas companies in the u. s. have been accused of profiteering from the war and
12:38 am
ukraine at the expense of american consumers. energy company executives have been forced to defend soaring prices and explain record profits before a bipartisan house committee. allen fisher ports from capitol hill. americans are feeling the pain at the pumps. earlier this year, the cost of filling up the car with petrol, hit an all time high in the us. the water ukraine has hit russian, oil imports. the u. s. host subcommittee called a meeting to discuss what can be done to help president, but the heating quickly dissolved into political bickering. democrats, claiming oil companies are putting profits at the consumers expense at the price of gas is driven by the global market. why is the price of oil coming down? but the price at the pump is down near record highs. if it's an issue, supply and demand, wouldn't that be reflected in the global price of oil as well? something just doesn't add up. but for the republicans holding this,
12:39 am
