a plan to allow shareholders to buy additional stock rushes warning. it's going to intensify. attacks on key after accusing ukraine of targeting russian border towns. this was the scene earlier in vishna just outside keith. that's where russia says it had a military plant. a number of air raid sirens were heard over night in keene and get more from charles trafford in the ukrainian capital chas. tell us more about these attacks. well we went down to this area of the south west of the capital and tried to get access to this factory. we were denied access, none of the officials or indeed civil defense. people in that area would speak to us to confirm that these strikes had taken place, but in the last hour or so,

a member of the key of regional military administration has said that last night there were 3 attacks on what that statement describes as being objects in the cave region now, certainly, according to the russian ministry of defense, they reported earlier today that they hit what they described as a weapons factory or ukrainian weapons factory. they said that this factory manufactured missiles, both land to see and serve is 2 anti aircraft missiles. we've had no word of that from the ukrainians, as i say, the ukrainians keeping very tightly. there were no casualties reported in these attacks, but they come a day of drugs you mentioned in the intro. this warning from the russian ministry of defense accusing the ukrainians of participating or carrying out helicopter gun ships on towns in an area close to the ukrainian border. but inside russia,

over the last couple of days, we of course come to firm these attacks took place and there are great concerns about what he's often described as false flag attacks or false flags being raised by the russians. these are falsified claims being made by both sides in fact, but mainly the russians have used these full swag. so western analysis sites as a means of giving the russians a pretext to retaliate. so it's certainly consistent with all these attacks that we've been reporting on this reported weapons increase, consistent with those kind of warnings that sir, that russia put out. and it also comes a day after the russians admitted that of course, the flag ship of the black sea fleet, the muscular sank according to the russians as a result of an explosion, and only as it was being towed back to pull. now of course the ukrainians claim

that they indeed hit that ship using land to see miss lyles again, impossible to confirm. but he was described certainly by pentagon officials as a huge blow to the russian navy. so yet again, it's very difficult to confirm exactly what is going on on the ground, but certainly this is a big wake up call for the ukrainians. this attack, certainly in kiev, because it would be the 1st major attack since russian forces withdrew from areas in and around give 2 weeks ago and shows just how potentially vulnerable the capital city still is. and charles were getting more stories as well about what's been happening in mario pulled a port city that's been under siege for weeks. now. bring this up to date with what's happening there. yes. reports of ongoing

face fighting and pockets in mario full, specifically in and around a steel plot. they're the village steel plant in the city. we understand that there's pace resistance there by ukrainian marines and ukrainian members of the eyes of battalion. that is a security force that is part of the ministry of interior that has been so effective in defending marable in the past. but as you say, 7 weeks of fighting, 7 weeks of that city being besieged by russian forces and pro russia separatists. we understand that there are still tens of thousands of people trapped inside the city. ukraine's deputy prime minister today announcing another 9 proposed ukranian corridors, humanitarian corridors, one of which was to try and get what is understood to be thousands of people still trapped my city. out of mariel for another corridor, out of the city, west of mariel, felicity called bare dance, another town called talk mac,

north of mary open. of course, we know how difficult getting those corals open and securing the safety of people coming out has being there be numerous failed attempts a trying to do this. there are also been reports from officials in the region of lou gunk, which is north of mariel. one official, they're telling people to leave the area as quickly as possible if they value their lives, reports of heavy fighting in that area around luc gans, we understand that there's a push by russian forces towards the city of slavery and which is a huge strategic importance analysts have been warding, and indeed the ukranian military and a western backers of a huge push in the east by russian forces that have moved from the areas around here, the capital city. in the last couple of weeks. it seems all evidence would suggest

that that is happening and we're getting reports of thousands, tens of thousands of people fleeing the area. charles, thanks very much. indeed, that's charles transferred talking tunes from key or military experts estimate that russia has lost almost 3000 pieces of equipment in the ukraine war. the losses are being blamed on advanced weapons that nato countries have given ukraine and russia's miscalculations. russell saba reports from cave tanks, helicopters, personnel carriers, tens of millions of dollars worth of equipment, all destroyed. and these are just a small portion of the losses suffered by one of the most powerful armies in the world. when russia began is offensive it hope to capture you. pains, capitol keep within days, but you re his army wrists with the assault, evidently, the russian army ers and ethnic problems with moral, with its equipment,

with its training on his doctrine. and as a result, russell to answer your question directly. russia has been defeated in the field to a point where it was effectively routed from the north of the country. ukrainian armed forces have taken advantage. often am boucher russian troops and columns in less than 2 months since russia invaded ukraine. it's military. he has lost powers of soldiers, according to ukrainian officials. it's more than the united states did in his 20 years of war in afghanistan, and nearly a decade in iraq combined. they say russia has lost at least 479 tanks, 496 infant and fighting vehicles. 28 crafts for shapes. 32 helicopters, 784 tracks, vehicles and jeeps. in total, the russians have lost nearly $3000.00 pieces of equipment and is all considered

conservative estimates. the highest prof. i lost to date was the mosque was the phil actually bought fresh us black stiffly. losing a flagship is in during the war is well really bad. it said that p r is that it's going to expect band increase of the morale of the ukrainians at the time when they are on the verge of losing her. mary, who both went. many things can be said to have gone wrong for russians. general valerie says the grain and on forces had a secret weapon. no, it may be your meryl at least brought him yet my shore, the mobilization of our society and people's resistance, especially a pilots who are older than 60 years old. come out and asked for jets. they retired from the armed forces a long time ago and asked, give us planes and we will destroy the russians. so moral is our formula for success. opinion forces have employed new technical weapons given to ukraine by

nato allies. chief among them, our portable anti tank guided missile systems such as the u. s. me javelin, and his lighter cheaper cousin. and lo, which have been used against russian tanks with their state, in effect in the, in the turkish me to be to by dr. thrones have carried out both recognizance and strike operations. portable single anti aircraft missiles have also enabled ukrainian soldiers to take out lawful i, an aircraft as technical miscalculations, misjudgment of the ukraine, of resistance and low morale. how all contributed to russia military vulnerability in this war. these weapons are leveling the playing field. right, so say that al jazeera cave is it was pi minous was wanting, his forces are prepared for any scenario. natalie ballots held an urgent meeting of the violent confrontations at the alex some last compound in occupied east jerusalem. 300 palestinians had been detained by israeli soldiers and over

but something bigger, having a public platform that is maximally trusted and broadly inclusive. is extremely important to the future of civilization. a week ago he bought a 9 percent stake in the social media platform, making him it's a biggest shareholder, but he wasn't done. musk broke the news appropriately on twitter, making an offer for 100 percent of the company at $54.20 a share. a total purchase of a little over $40000000000.00 in a letter to the company's board of directors. musk said twitter has extra ordinary potential. i will unlock it. you know, must go very strong opinions on, on free speech. you know, on his what he believes twitter needs to do to fix the platform. i think that there's not necessarily aligned with the majority of old dollars to. ready to use and so from that respect, i think this could be a bad day for because what he uses,
