a lot of the ships around the missile cruiser, i've also moved further away from positions that they trying to get out. the range of the missiles that would suggest actually that the ukrainian version of events is actually true. ukrainian say they used neptune missiles to hit the mosque of a cruiser. now, military, unless a very a telling us the actually, the moskva should never have been back close to be able to be fired upon from land by ukrainian forces. it's a big ship out when it's half full power. it actually leads a small army as a small convoy of other ships and is a formidable fighting force within itself. it's the kind of vessel that you do need . if you are going to pummel a port from quite far away, so the fact that way was in miss all range and the ukrainians were able to say, if that's confirmed is something millions family say is extraordinary. the russians
8:03 pm

8:04 pm
a team from the i, c. c, is in cave at the moment the prosecutor for the i c. c has been there. what's he been saying? what he's been very clear, what he said over the last couple of days actually is that firstly and this is extremely statement for the i c c. a g prosecutor se says almost all of ukraine is a crime scene by which means he's actually referring to a lot of towns just outside of keys where we've been to plants spend a lot of time in those towns just a few days ago. there were still pulling a bodies out of the rubble. they were still discovering bodies and forests and woods outside of those cities. those bodies of now need to be registered. they now taking statements. eccentric cream han has also been saying that actually he's not going to take any evidence and critical. and this is a crucial statement from him. it means that he will have a team of people that will take
8:05 pm
a look at what the ukrainian se happened and apply their own investigations to it before it gets any further. but the fact that he's already in tattle walls, there's still a war going on, is significant. it means that there is some sort of urgency, particularly from the international criminal court to get as much evidence as possible among con, bringing up to date from kevin ukraine in man, thank you very much. indeed. odyssey arizona hodge is in the eastern ukraine near commer tossed square farmers have been hit by a russian air strike. i want to give you a warning. some of you might find some of these images distressing that, oh my god and we are at the area in your cremmit tours which was targeted a minute ago. you can see the plumes of smoke and there is one of the victims. he's a civilian woman, simply a farmer. ivan, this area is a farming area less than 20 kilometers near premier taurus. a woman says one man, probably her husband is trapped inside the flames. this form came under an air
8:06 pm
strike at my war, plummets it was hit by a number of missiles. as you can see, the smoke and flames were still rising into the sky. what is it 11 help? hello ma'am. this soldier is trying to search for the man inside. the soldiers shall be out for him, but there is no sign of demand. over the past hours, the rushing jet fighters have been hovering over crematory, carrying out a number of air strikes. ukrainian authorities did not disclose the target areas, but we came to this farming area in less than 20 kilometers from the city center. as you witnessed, there's one injured woman, possibly of a challenge in the world. food program started distributing food in the ukrainian city of boucher for mass graves have been discovered. earlier i spoke to the executive director of the u. n. world food program. they would be say, he says the situation on the ground is heretic. i was just in boots or just a little couple hours ago is seen on the streets, the devastation, hearing the stories of, of women, children being indiscriminately shot i went to an or british or british home where
8:07 pm
40 orphans were living and it's been bomb completely just destroyed, it's just heretic what we're seeing on the ground here. david, tell us about the kind of logistical problems here in your teams of facing and trying to get food supplies to all the different areas that you're talking about, particularly in the east of the country. well, you know, most of the farmers are the truck drivers or guess where they are, they are on the front last friday trying to defend their country. and so this is a task in itself. and then you've got all the checkpoints, with military offences taking place and trying to move supplies in harm's way. and we know how to do this. we operate basically 80 percent of our worldwide operations are in areas of war or conflict. so we know how to do this, and i can tell you this is a very, very complex and difficult place to operate right now. moving supplies of food in these war areas is extremely difficult for us. and we're very concerned that people
8:08 pm
are starving, but we're not being given. the ice is that we need if we get the access, we will reach everybody in ukraine. and then of course, we've got great concerns about the people outside of ukraine. this going to be impacted by the agricultural shut down the state you place in this country. yeah, let me, let me ask you about that because this is clearly the, there's a ripple effect isn't that we can talk talking about this for weeks, described to us what kind of impacts we're seeing now that we're into, i think dave, 50 of this conflict. what is the impact that we're seeing across the rest of the world? yet, rob, i don't think the impact will be what we call a ripple effect. i think this could be a su nami, a say, that's what we're looking at. 50 percent of what we buy to feed, we feed about 125000000 people around the world in the most delicate, fragile places. and if we're not there with food security, we're talking about not just famine. you're talking about destabilization of several nations and mass migration, so we might be 80 percent of what we buy from ukraine,
8:09 pm
and that's just us. here's what most people don't realize. ukraine produces enough food to support 400000000 people around the world. and so we're talking about a global crisis. if we don't stabilize and open up the supply chains, this necessary, i can start going through country by country like ease of 85 percent of the screen for bread, for example, comes from ukraine and russia, ah lebanon, 80 percent, the year before last fit, i can keep going by country, by country, by country, so it will create a global crisis if we don't address this and one of the things we got to do, we got to get the farmers back in the field own to the tractors. so the harvest can take place and then we'd got to move this harvest through the porch. we got to, to protect the porch. we got to open up the ports so that this massive amount of food that these hundreds of millions of people around the world is available to the
