injuring 12 in tel aviv chop stock it outside. i thought the window shattering. suddenly people started running and i felt back pain. and it's the last day of campaigning ahead of elections in france. the race is tighter than expected. we begin with the war in ukraine and at least 30 people have been killed in an attack aft in the east after an attack in the east ukrainian official say. russian troops struck a train station in the city of crowd tours. they say, and evacuation effort was underway when 2 rockets hit the station. more than a 100 people were injured in the attack. let spring in a sad be goes in khaki for us. it's an eastern ukraine. what more you hearing about this attack on this train station i found we're hearing that people were gathering the train station as evacuations are

taking place because coming is in the east. it's around $200.00. so i'm just where we are now. and it's been a fair, nice, strong suspicion that will be the center of some sort of offensive by the russians . that we understand more than 30 people have died and over 100 people have been injured. not the picture that we're seeing very harrowing, of people lined on the floor. but people continue to flock to that train station because people want to get out. because their reality is that the russians have said that they want to concentrate on the east of the country. that people don't know exactly where the offensive will start, but there is a suspicion that it could be here. even car give or comment or so people want to get to safety. now attacks do take place on civilian areas, but we haven't seen anything like this. so far in the east and as i said, those pictures the hiring, but people are still desperate to get out some very difficult to pictures. indeed from that train station in eastern ukrainian chromatography, tell us about what's been happening in khaki,

where you are in constant shilling in the last few hours there. yes, there has been constant shall. and we've also heard anti aircraft guns being fired . we heard a crust overboard and the bomb being dropped. not that hasn't happened for a while, and we've been in inactive now for over 3 weeks. and the fear, hey, if you speak to some of the military, there will be offensive by the russians to again concentrate on this 2nd largest city. now the authorities here over the last 24 i was, there's been around 48 incidentally shutting go until the hospital was hit last night and people are still being treated from that incident for overall in the forgive region. the still intensification of fighting, especially to the south east of here in the city of israel, where the russians controlled that city and of intensive fighting, taking place there. but harry car gift has been constant auction re fi, a constant shutting and anti aircraft fly,

which we really hear during the day. and that's the 1st for us was we've been her. i had to thank you for the update as a big live there in concave, while ukraine's president is warning the world of a worse scale of killings in borrowed. yank i then 1st start to florida me. lensky says, a search is under way to uncover bonnie's in the town northwest of keith. he's described what happened there as significantly worse. any nearby butcher were at least 300 people died. zalinski did not give further details. so evidence that russia was responsible for civilian deaths, of which a lease reward to the work, to clear the rubble and bore dunker has begun. it is significantly more dreadful. they're even more victims from the russian occupiers. and what will happen when the world learns the whole truth about what the russian military did in marry a party. there on almost every street is what the world saw in butcher and other towns in the cave region after the withdrawal of russian troops. the same cruelty, the same terrible crimes, european commission president or sullivan,

de leon is travelling to keep this friday shall hold, talks with me as lensky. the visit comes amid mountie international outrage over a ledge atrocities in ukraine. let's turn our attention to other world news now and in television. israel, a palestinian gunmen suspected of carrying out an attack has been killed after a man hunt. at least 2 people died and a dozen were wounded. in the assault palestinian prison mahmoud abbas has condemned the attack, saying it only leads to a further deterioration of the situation. israel spy minister says the countries on maximum alert and his clothes are crossing into the occupied west bank. john hohmann reports from western slim. ah, your of them are through the shooting attack and central television. the gunman arrived at this bow spraying bullets more than a dozen people who rushed to hospital a little late. but i was heading north and as you were passing bars bar shot

started outside. i saw the window shattering. suddenly people started running and i felt the back pain. i did not know there was an injury. i was just looking at them . i thought a lot like i saw blood melinda lacey down, dozen golf street is usually busy with people visiting its bows and cafes. by the end of 1st evening, it was full of security forces. you can see right behind asa restaurant, families and her friends were sitting and having a supper and drinks. and now all of a sudden a terrorist came over and i shot them, shot 10 innocent people and i entered them. unfortunately to them, man, laura murdered is where i was already on its hi, stella. this was a 4th attack within the country in recent weeks. all of them appeared to have been carried out by individuals. no palestinian group claim to responsibility for any of them. it's understood that neither the palestinian leadership nor is where i wanted

escalation right now in the longstanding conflict her. but as in the past, even when no one's interested in escalation, things can suddenly spiral out of control. perhaps sooner rather than later, for israeli prime minister, not barley bennett, who said he won't engage in peace talks with the palestinians. he's trying to hold together a fragile coalition, which is just lost its parliamentary majority, the pressure that sure to fall on him to adopt tougher measures towards palestinians could now weaken divide his government further. john homan al jazeera wished jerusalem, and how it abdullah media is at the scene of the attack in tel aviv join. just now live hunter, more details emerging about what happened spring is up to speed with the latest rest. well we just heard from our prime minister nestali bennett, and he is saying that the gun man had actually accomplished said he didn't go into

details about that. but he did say that those places will be court. now this is a very difficult position for the prime minister simply because this is the 4th attack in about 2 and a half weeks. he had been saying all along that the country was on high alert. and then this happened here in the heart of tel aviv at that time where this treat is busy with people 9 pm. and on, i think even the most damning point, put a prime minister that is 9 hours for the security services to catch the gun. met that is a very long time by israeli standards, and he had made his way about 4 kilometers away from here to java. so he did manage to get away a big deal before he was caught early this morning. what is the situation like, i mean, today's the 1st friday of the holy muslim month of ramadan. honda, what do we expect

a israel's response to be in the coming days and just how tense is the situation, how much concern is say it could lead to a new round to violence between piracy demonstrated well, there was this concern and the days leading to ramadan that, detentions could escalate and, but when you were on the ground especially occupied east jerusalem around damascus day, you could see that they was, the soldiers had the order to contain themselves. not to respond to any sort of publications and let people just have fun, especially that in the evening really that people gather at damascus gate in and around the old city and occupied east jerusalem. that was an idea that all sides were not willing to have any kind of escalation, that is still there at the leadership position. now with more attacks coming,

the prime minister of israel will be under more pressure to take some sort of action. we know already that the checkpoint near janine and the north part of it has been close indefinitely. that will impact a lot of palestinian workers who cross on a daily basis, israel. but in the wider sense, i think it's a very difficult position for prime minister bennett, simply because he is in the middle of a bumbling political crisis out. a former prime minister benjamin netanyahu is trying to make a comeback. ask anyone here and they will tell you that they absolutely sure he's trying to make it come back and we heard from him on twitter just as to a while ago where he was saying that the situation needed a tough time. and the 1st a permit says that basically talking about himself since he's been known for so long as being mr. security of israel. so it's all coming at a very difficult time,

a prime minister with his project coalition that has begin to grow both. and he will have to at some point make a bold move. the question is, or when and how even though that is really no appetite under political level, to have a widening, a crisis here or down. thank you for that whole dr. hamid live for his say in television, let's cross over now to need a brain was in july may border crossing near janine in the occupied to west bank. tell us about what's happening lee, you are anita, and what does the closing of the border crossing actually mean? it means a lot as this is one of the locations where many palestinian is radius come to janine to shop. specifically that we're talking now about the holy month of ramadan . many come here and it has been helping that to these economy. it's also a place where thousands of palestinian workers cross into israel. the other

checkpoint salem has been closed for a while. so this is the 2nd check point that connects jeanine with israel now has been closed. and many believe here that this is a collective punishment, according to the israeli general, his and his radio official and his, the head of the co gas, which is the coordinator of these really government activities in the palestinian territory. says on facebook, post that this is what terrorism does to palestinians who are as the on the other side of the narrative, the palestinians see it differently. they say that israel has left them with no choice that they have to exercise violence because they believe this is the only way that is real. when here at them, we're very close to where the attacker, their gun man is from his, from the janine refugee camp. it's not forget that this is the 2nd, the 2nd israel that has been perforated by

a west banker. and both of them were from this area who was born in 1993 at time when palestinians were looking for peace with these ladies, they signed the also a court that was supposed to lead palestinians into independence and stated that all these people have been seeing after those years was more a league and it's really sutherland more closures as we can see here. with this. jacqueline being closed and many say that they have no option, but to fight is breaking up. need a thank you very much. the, the abraham live for us there near jeanine in the occupied west bank and still ahead on al jazeera, why the power of poetry may not be enough to keep 3 historic museums open for good in chimney and $1000.00 to evacuate in australia after heavy flooding some places received a month's worth of rain overnight. ah,

that sun goes north and takes the seasonal rains with it is combined with that season in the pacific co lamina when the western pacific is warmer than usual. so you tend to get very ready little storm system shuffled depressions or tropical cycles. this is my luck as it's moving up towards guam. but then you see a cousin on its way not named it's just depression moving through the central philippines, heavy rain from that. another one here is hinted at and beyond that, in sudden past, what is malaysia and some thailand big shout as a result of the same sort of system. it means a good part of indonesia. those seeing showers isn't quite as work as the concentrations draw north. and in their china a la she dry place there as well. can't say that 1st australia, east, australia,

ryans, sidney, once more, has seen huge amounts of rain dairies flooding. widespread flood is one of it was expected, you know, they've had their annual rainfall already on as of april 7th and the still more to come the tropical cycle. same reasoning as we saw further north is out of the open water, but indicate indicative of feet of moisture into east in queens and settings likely here. big shows, i think in new south wales next day also, but not necessarily in the sidney area. the rest of australia mostly fine. ah ah, china is locked in a sy battle with the us. when i, when ace makes the online warriors bottle, i'm with one out of the euro. oh,

how jesse are with no. ah ah ah. they watching al jazeera alive from doha reminder of our top stories. ukrainian officials say at least 30 people have been killed in a russian rocket strike and was trained station in east ukraine. they say and evacuation effort was underway at the time of year talk more than a 100 people are wounded. ukraine's president is warning that the skate of killings in bro, jessica is much worse. any nearby butcher where at least 300 people are known to have died floating me as lensky says, there even more victims in the town, north,

west of keach and in avenues. israel's foreign minister says the countries on maximum inert and a crossing into the occupied westbank has been closed after an attack that killed 2 people in television. in other news, frances, a far right presidential candidate mind le pen has held her final campaign rally before elections on sunday. oh, suggest the race is tightening with le pen an increasing threat to prison, demanding my cons chances of reelection. bennett smith reports marine la pan has perhaps never been as close to power. the latest polls indicate the leader of france is far right. national party still wants to curb immigration and bomb muslim head scarves in public places. but she's focused her campaign on the cost of living crisis. it's the number one issue for french voters ahead of the war and ukraine, the environment, and health. oh, really? did. she is better than mac from in every aspect security. the future for the use

was used to dislodge a selected government which came through a manipulated election. and today, we were going to have a strengthening of democracy. and as far as the article 6 application is concerned, i think once the full reason to judgement comes and the new federal government comes in place, they will, they will have all the credible evidence, who are all the perpetrators and the characters in the, you know, it's a virgin and violation of the constitution. it's a busy night in the federal capital, islamabad, as meetings are taking place amongst opposition leaders and between leaders of prime minister among fans party as well. we've been speaking to some of them who say that they are going to stay part of the political course of back a son would. we accept the wording because, you know, vieira, our party believes in rule of law, our leader in mankind has always preached a being or having supremacy of law or rule of law. which is this is actually one
