2:06 pm
this operation will come to an end, of course, we've heard from the russian saying that they are now in the 2nd phase of this at mission. they are now going to focus on the eastern part of ukraine. that is where things are actually began for the russian military same they were assisting in the separatists movements. so they're, if they're russian separatist that wanted to reclaim at some of the land that they say they is rightfully theirs, which is now part of ukraine. so as far as the russians are concerned, this is very much a provocative acts by the ukrainian military. thank you, daughter for that dosage. a very live there in moscow. while ukraine's president is warning the world that killings in borrowed janski's could be worse sin 1st. a thought amy zalinski says a search is under way to uncover bodies in the town north west of keith is described. what happened there as significantly worse? any nearby butcher where at least 300 people died. so lensky did not give further
2:07 pm
details or evidence that russia was responsible for civilian deaths, of which a lease removed to the work to clear the rubble and bore a junker 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 mary 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. meanwhile, the european commission president, aust lavonne de leon has boarded a train on her way to keep she will hold talks with roy to me is lensky, the ukrainian presidential spokesman said, details of her schedule will not be made public for safety sake, security reasons at the visit comes, i made mounting international outrage over a ledge atrocities in ukraine. the ukrainian foreign minister says a video that appears to show ukranian forces killing russian prisoners of war will
2:08 pm
be investigated. resource adar reports from the village where the shootings are a nature of happens last week. it will offer our vehicles, hulu. the ridge of demetrika is recoding from am won't long siege by russian forces . when no more, it was a front line in the battle for the capital q and the wounds are still roll. rosamille where you them. thank god we survived. we lived here by the forest, went all the houses were bombed, where everything was burnt. that's where we lived. we were bumped 24 hours without stopping. we never thought that we can survive here in this village. we survived armageddon, stalingrad. this is starlen glad. as the russian forces throw to route through. they were ambushed by weeping. ukrainian artillery. how are you fighting? continued for almost 24 hours here on this road. just outside timothy deruka, severely shalt a column of russian tanks and personnel carriers were wiped out. many soldiers remained inside, now barely recognizable. those who survive the fight were captured. if you do show
2:09 pm
in the killing of one of the prisoners of war has since emerged, which has caused outrage. right here, ukrainian forces captured to russian soldiers. one of them was still alive and gasping. then a soldier shot the man twice. and after the man kept moving, the soldier shot him again, and the man stopped the killing to happen around much towards heat. while a russian column was retreating from the area. ukrainian de fassman, as we said, the destruction of a russian. a convoy here was precise work. however, the video shows a more complicated reality that russian colonel borg them was a soldier for 42 years before he retired. when the war started, he took up arms again. he questions the videos, authenticity. we doors, mentor one,
2:10 pm
and as though kim, this video was editor, when we get prisoners here, we detain and trade them. 40 crania on them. we are not barbarians, don't we don't short prisoners. so while you clean and officials elegy, russian forces are committing war crimes against civilians in the region. now they face similar acquisitions. they are promising to investigate or she doesn't, over grenier, or is he for everyone who died in this, warrington, or russians and ukrainians? one person, bertha responsibility. gotcha. but didn't put you are as bonuses this and even if possibly our armed forces made some relations, which led to the best people to still put him is responsible. emotionally. it does not ask or started the war, but him are in sure with him, not really sure what they presented as long as it was originally. it requires a personalized approach case by case. but according to the geneva conventions,
2:11 pm
according to the geneva conventions, neither hon. this war shouldn't have happened as the war grains on and continues to claim lies. the fear here is off more atrocities to come. right, so sir the l g 0 demetrika. in other words, news, palestinians are holding the 1st friday praise of ramadan, but it comes at a time when his railey forces have been put on maximum alert. a palestinian gunmen who carried on an attack in tel aviv has been killed after a manhunt. incident has been condemned by palestinian prison mahmoud abbas a crossing into the occupied west bank has been closed in response. john home and reports from my children. the aftermath of the shooting attack in central television man arrived at ispa spraying bullets more than a dozen people rushed to hospital bay to hold on leg. but i was heading north and as you were passing by a bar shot started outside, i saw the window shattering. suddenly people started running and i felt back pain.
2:12 pm
i did not know there was an injury. i was just walking and, and i thought a lot light. i saw blood melinda, i didn't, i didn't golf street is usually busy with people visiting it's bars and cafes by the end of 1st evening. it was full of security forces. you can see right behind i saw a 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. now, laura nerd is where i was already on its highest alert. 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 claimed 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 here. but as in the past,
2:13 pm
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 has just lost its parliamentary majority. the pressure that sure to follow on him to adopt tougher measures towards palestinians could now weaken and divide his government further. john homan al jazeera wester's, them and hold. abdul hamid has more from the scene of the attack in television. you know already that for example, the one of the main check points near jeanine north of janine has been shut down indefinitely. that will have a huge impact on, by the senior workers who come into israel to on a daily basis to get the earnings. so that will have an impact,
2:14 pm
and i think that will probably see a wider security operation going on. but at the same time, if we also look at the reality, for example in occupied is jerusalem at this moment. well, there is no, any business, any kind of tension. there was a prevention that as of the worshippers were flocking to the l. x. i'm lots of compound and that it would be a tension there. well, so far it's been very peaceful and there hasn't been any new restrictions on the palestinians who are coming from the occupied west bank to go there to hold their prayers today. so that is an indication that maybe the is the rhetoric of giving the security forces a green card to do whatever they deem essential here. but on the other side, you do have that feeling. also, that is worried that it's better not to inflame the situation. and there is no
2:15 pm
political appetite at this point to have any kind of escalation. still ahead on al jazeera, this trace of coping with cove h, the u. s. space is a shortage, as nice as it needs another great mindset and a meet the comedian from south to don who says laughter is the best medicine. ah, the journey has begun. the fee for world copies on its way to the castle. your travel package to that route. it stopped snowing in honshu on the mountains. now that's the system on its way out. so temperature is wrong, the way up as well. suddenly breeze and it should be rapid rise, the rapid thought as a result. it's generally fine and warm picture for the west in china as well. in fact, from the axis as was temperature, well above the average,
