yesterday evening. that chemical weapons had been used in mary paul overnight. that's not something that defense intelligence here in london. it was confirmed or, and if their intelligence count offs in, with our allies around the world and indeed place presidents lensky address last night, also referred to report. so there's been no verification within the ukrainian system . etha. well the u. k. foreign century link trust tweeted reports that russian forces may have used chemical agents in the attack on the people of not a poll. we are working urgently with partners to verify the details. any use of such weapons would be a callous escalation in this conflict, and we will hold peyton and his regime to account. a commander of easton ukrainian separatist say they have not used chemical weapons in their fight to take control of malleable, but ukraine's president follows him. is lensky says the rebels have made no secret

of their intentions. shouldn't as bully, equal blind to day, we had a new threat about a new stage of terror against our defenders. one spokesman of the enemy made a statement to day that they could use chemical weapons against them out of your po, defenders. we took it extremely seriously. i want to remind all the leaders of the world that the possible use of chemical weapons was already discussed. and at the time it meant that it was necessary to end the russian aggression in a tougher and faster way. now the 6th sanction package is being discussed. we need to make it so powerful that even the phrase chemical weapons is not used by russians, notion, or the russian and barrison presidents are currently in russia's far east blood man, pearson and alexander lucas and co. i've been at the cosmo drawn marking rushes annual space day, but discussions about ukraine are sure to dominate their meeting like a shanker has insisted on being involved in negotiations to end the conflict. back

in february, many of the russian troops that crossed into ukraine went through valley routes. the u. s. has told it's non emergency staff to leave shanghai because of a surge in coven 19 cases and china's handling of the outbreak. beijing has come under criticism for the measures. this used to control virus. it's now easing restrictions. in some neighborhoods, the cities 26000000 residents have been under strict locked down for 2 weeks. let's get more less. we can speak to katrina, you his lifeless, and beijing. oh said firstly, tell us what measures are being east? well can i just go back to this these numbers? first we had 23000 new cases reported in shanghai on tuesday, which is slightly down from the monday. think of, but no one knew were officials in shanghai wanted to be an official on tuesday.

said that this outbreak in shanghai is still not effectively under control. and although we had 23000 cases, it's important to note the vast majority of these people have more to notice symptoms and still they're being funneled into these compulsory quarantine centers . now, as for those eating restrictions that you mentioned, these are being applied in a very patchy manda. now authorities say that the eating restrictions in about 43 percent of china's, of shanghai is neighborhoods. but this might mean, for example, that in your particular compound, there's been no positive curve in 1900 case for about 2 weeks. so that means that you can finally walk out your front door and perhaps get some air in the compound itself. walk around the courtyard. some of these compounds are allowing people to actually go out into the streets, but there's very little to do. the streets are extremely quiet, very few businesses are open. i think the key point is the vast majority of the

people who live in shanghai, the vast majority of the 25000000 people are still under some sort of walked down. and the government is under increasing pressure to answer questions about the frustration that people have about the pool management of this lockdown. and for example, poor access to things like fresh food and essential services. the u. s. is announced that it's pulling some of its consulate, stuff out of sinai. has there been any reaction to that? china is furious about this. china has said that the accusations at the us are making groundless and that it's the washington and washington. it is politicizing, china's curve in 1900 outbreak, which is the worst outbreak the china has had since the beginning of the pandemic. now, the u. s. ordered this evacuation of all non essential style from shanghai on monday evening. and that was a change from the previous order at the end of last week,

that was saying that this order was only voluntary nor reason has been given, officially asked why this voluntary order was changed to a mandatory evacuation order. but there has been a lot of concerns from the us that there has been an arbitrary imposition of these corporate control laws, as well as other laws in particular complaints around the 4th separation. for example, of family members of those who have to enter a quarantine centers as well as poor living conditions within these hastily constructed facilities. and it's not just us who are criticizing china's heavy handed approach. many other organizations, particularly business organizations from other countries, have also criticize china's approach to curve 19 as outdated and using old methods to try to so far. unsuccessfully control this new hardly infectious strain of carbon 19 katrina. you that 1st in beijing, indonesia,

russia were eligible operating in ukrainian cities or kiwa lucia barclay, or just in case during the 1st 2 weeks or full scale aggression. we discover it more and pulled the $600.00 sabotage groups. their task was to reach down down into block law enforcement agencies from the mr. what on the state was mostly able to maintain communication with in key cities in a more american business magnate. elan mosque supplied ukraine with about 4000 starling terminals of similar to, to the dishes duster but a model. they provide the secure satellite internet access and enable the state to keep up his surveillance with a new claim. but civilians play the most crucial role in country intelligence. i mailed them all of daily receive it 100 on phone calls from ordinary citizens. we were informed of the behavior of certain groups who were moving toward the police department. they can pictures of the state,

and we had the menu working meetings with bunkers. that facet aguilar brooks, including meetings with the president of russia, the blue term of barrick weapons in ukraine as they are considered highly effective against defenses. like bankers i asked minister, what measures were taken to protect the president from them a yard for understandable reasons. so i can look bill everything under martial law, the state came on the military control with president zaleski, now commander in chief at the heart of all operations. he communicates every day with the people of ukraine through social media videos to maintain moral and stability. despite the threats of his life being ever present nature, presto, said that, o, j 0, keep the white house as you as president joe biden. and the indian prime minister and domady had a candid exchange of views on the crane conflicts, despite via video link on monday, made little progress. who as xena unified stance,

is our state upon corresponding rosalind jordan. ukraine dominated monday summit and strategic dialogue between top you us and ending and officials. that's because despite nearly 7 weeks of war, delhi has refused to condemn moscow's decision to invade or back international efforts to hold it accountable. whether via sanctions or suspension from the un human rights council. before the cameras, u. s. president joe biden and indian prime minister now render mowdy were quick to agree. civilians are paying the highest price, including in boucher and crime, a tourist hum nay. we immediately condemned it to doug and we demanded an independent inquiry. we hope that the talks going on between ukraine and russia. i will lead to peace. i want to walk on my india as humanitarian support from people ukraine or suffering a horrific assault, including a tragic shelling train station last week. the kill dozens of innocent children and

conclusions and may congress, harassment. and believe me, we have a decent sense of what is in our interests and know how to protect it and advance it. the u. s. is view india's relationship with russia ah, was developed over decades at a time when the united states was not able to be a partner to india times of changed. so even after a day of high level me between the u. s. and india, a lot of questions remain, is the u. s. willing to cut off one of its partners against china? because it won't cut off russia? is india willing to undercut its moral standing in the world? because it refuses to make economic and military plants with a country other than russia. and ultimately, what does any of this have to do with the future of ukraine? rosalyn jordan, l g 0. the state department. israeli forces have withdrawn from janine and the occupied west bank,
