1:02 pm
let's get the lines go blessed day over the past 24 hours in the territory of dynette scandal. han screech and stan attacks by russian invaders were repelled. it was thanks. 28 armored vehicles, 2 vehicles and one or 2. the re system were destroyed while charles stratford is in costa ante nefco in the eastern ukraine's dumbass region. many attacks last night, right, the way along the front line. we're also hearing reports though, of what the ukraine is describing as being them having repelled moves by russian forces in certain areas. certain areas actually relatively close to where we are here, specifically a town called homo santa, where we know that has been heavy fighting in the last couple of days. we actually spoke to a member of the organization medicine, san frontier, about half an hour ago. he describing the situation in papasan ers being terrifying
1:03 pm
for the remaining civilians there. he says that russian forces control about half that a town, a very dangerous road for civilians trying to get out of it. there also, now there are a number of other towns around proper santa and one that is in full control now under full control of watson forces that town carmina. now, one of the reasons why there is such a push in that area is because it seems as if russian forces are trying to do some sort of pincer movements to try and surround the strategically important, very large city of slum dance. we also know that there has been heavy fighting north of sloppy answer in a town called is you. so yes, a lot of fighting overnight, but as i say, the ukrainian force is at least saying that they have managed to repel a russian advance or you know, it's been coming up for 2 days since the beginning of these announcements that we heard from the ukrainians and the russians that this, as the russians call it,
1:04 pm
a 2nd phase has started. but certainly analysts are saying and the ukrainians. a saying that as yet, the russians have not managed to sort of get the kind of momentum that they need for that 2nd stage to make serious territorial gains. but also jibari standing by in moscow. but 1st, let's cross over to how to add the hamid who's in more of the anchor for us and hot our middle this more military age pledged from united states is absolutely. i mean, the united states has pledge a couple of weeks ago about 800000000 additional in military aid. there was a shipment last week and is another shipment that has just arrived in poland and should make its way across the border, ain't to ukraine. now. what do you not to say has been giving the ukrainian army is mainly anti tank, misses, anti air misses and also artillery pieces. this is very much needed. you
1:05 pm
know, the 8 has been coming well before this war started, but most of that aid at the time went to the eastern front because there was a believe that if indeed they would be award to time. that would be where it would start along that very long contact line of 420 kilometers. well, it turned around it came into areas as where i'm standing here in board, yank and north west of keep as the russians were trying to push their so do you queen as a find themselves in a situation that all that a that had received. they had to relocated and re deployed. we deployed in a, in areas like this one. and you can see does some behind me that the battles here were as fierce as what charles is describing is unfolding at the moment in eastern ukraine. so certainly more aid is definitely needed as this is just the beginning of that 2nd phase of the war. and the russians have said it very clearly,
1:06 pm
right from the onset that the final game will be to take over the whole dumbass region, which includes both the login's and done yet regions is a very, very large area and for the ukrainians to be able to stand there basically they will need a lot of back up. i remember just before the war, we were speaking to one soldier in ad we've got along that contact line. it was one day before the war. and he said that the time is going to be very difficult for us because our trenches basically are in the way of what they want to get. so he was, he was saying already, then if we don't get more supplies, if we don't get more troops, if we don't get more a weaponry. well then they, the, the separate is backed by the russians could just roll over. so that is urgently needed. and i think we're going to see this military aid really pouring into the country more and more over the coming days and weeks. i live in that bar that yank
1:07 pm
a forest hotter after hamid. thank you. will daughter jabbar is in moscow for more on this and or so? what's rushes take on all this? well, according to the russian defense minister survey chicago, and he said that the weapons that are being delivered to ukraine by the united states are only serving the interests of the united states because they will be wanting to drag out this conflict for as long as possible. and as long as they continue to supply ukraine with weapons, that is exactly what is going to happen is going to prolong this conflict. and we also had heard from officials in washington last week that reportedly, and there was a note that was passed on to the officials in when washington, from the russian embassy saying that the weapons, the americans are sending to crane will have unexpected consequences. for the united states, the feeling here is that a,
1:08 pm
this aid that's being pouring into ukraine is coming with an aim. there is a goal behind it. and that is to a, continue this conflict and to prolong it for as long as possible with the hopes of the russians and not being successful in their so called special military operation, which is in now aides 56 day. but the general consensus here that we've been hearing from a lot of analysts and, and oh guess on state tv over the past few days is that the conflict is now much broader. the idea that the russians were at a cup fighting the ukrainians is now at the initial stage, very much. the view here is that cit, the russians are now fighting, not only the ukrainians, but as well as nato countries alongside the united states. because those are the countries that are pouring in weapons into crane. so as this has certainly complicated what is already a very complicated s situation on the ground. and of course,
1:09 pm
the united states for so far a given area near the $2500000000.00 worth of 8 and milk military equipment to the government in care of. and the russians are saying that this is only making this situation much worse. okay, those such of are in moscow. thank you for that update. now in new delhi city officials have used bulldozers to raise shops, stores, and properties they say were built illegally, and their actions continued despite india's talk, court ordering a hold to the eviction drive. most of the people living in johanna very are muslims . 4 days ago there were violent confrontations in the area between large the hindu and muslim crowds during a religious procession, alive to elizabeth around him in new delhi. now in dallas, with the supreme court has ordered the demolitions to stop, but what's actually happening there now? hello carry. that's right. so the definitions in the neighborhood of john,

what do we know about the circumstances of this break out? while police have confirmed that there was a riot that proceeded the breakout. detainees broke down doors and grills and fled . now the detention center was holding more than 650 people at the time, and some 500 people escaped. there were around $23.00 immigration officers, but they were completely overwhelmed. please say they do not know what was behind the right what caused the riot, but the couldn't state police chief did concede that there may have been feelings of unhappiness among the detainees. but he didn't elaborate and he said the cause of the right is now the subject of an investigation. now we do know that these 6 people have died. they were struck by vehicles while trying to cross a highway and the 6 include 2 children. the incident happened around 67 kilometers
1:18 pm
from the detention center. now police say they are still searching for those were still at large. they've set up road blocks. they've asked villages in the nearby areas to be on the lookout and they've also activated a volunteer paramilitary force. police say that those who escaped are all ro hanger, which means they would have fled either myanmar with a state less and subject to a life of persecution or bangladesh where they are confined to refugee camps with little chance for escape or future somewhere else. and many of them for prey to human traffic as if trying to reach other countries for silent fade to undertake dangerous boat journeys. some of them drift at month 4 months at a time man. and those who are more or less fortunate may perish at sea. yet many still choose to undertake this journey and for many of them, malaysia is a popular destination because this is a muslim majority country and it's closer to me on mine bun gladish as compared to indonesia. and even so those who actually arrived here don't find that that

1:23 pm
full 2, but as i said, they are being you the same perhaps because it is easier to get a conviction through the edition route. but it might be unified with our clinics. basically, the more local security legislation come through. and of course, there will be a change of leadership in hong kong next month. what do you expect from that then going forward? yeah, we writing days away from john lee who's a former chief and hong kong on the to being selected in a small circle election leech next to his leader, but much consign this sort of symbolizes beijing. perhaps we use hong kong nowadays. it is another troublesome periphery. and when we talk about the fate new law that have anything to enact, as well as local national security legislation. there's also worries about crowd

1:25 pm
surprise. china has signed a cooperation agreement with the solomon islands, one that western governments believe could bring chinese warships uncomfortably close to australia's shores. the agreement is to maintain social order, protect lives, and property response, a natural disasters and provide humanitarian aid. china's foreign ministry rejects notions. the islands are in australia's so called back yard patty on dogwill. pacific island countries are not any one's backyard, though, let alone pawns in a geopolitical confrontation, island countries of actual needs for diversification of foreign cooperation. and also have the right to independently choose their partners. deliberately exaggerating tensions and provoking confrontation between camps is not of interest to island countries. news of the agreement sent shock waves around the world when it was leaked last month. and just hours before it was announced, the u. s. warned against it, saying it could expand the reach of china's military or p. a les, despite these all nouns, governments comments, the broad nature of the security agreement leaves open the door for the deployments
1:26 pm
of p r. c, military forces to the solomon islands. a we believe that signing such an agreement could increase destabilization within the solomon islands. and we'll set a concerning precedent for the wider pacific island region. violent protests in november against unemployment, the prime minister manase. so guevara and warming relations with beijing left the solomon islands, chinatown area, and ruins. so have already turned to australia, new zealand, and papa new guinea, to send peacekeepers and restore order. about 50 australian police, remain there. as a friend of solomon islands, we remain there fiscal for security, but now it's likely to become an election issue for prime minister scott morrison who's facing criticism for not doing more to scuttle the deal. his counterpart sought to reassure a camera in his own parliament. the islands won't become embroiled in any geopolitical game. there is no tension whatsoever, mrs. figured to australia to build a military base in someone else. it's

1:33 pm
well, i think it can make a whole lot of difference because the conflict is now moving to, to the southern and the eastern part of the crane flat lands, which requires again heavy weaponry auditors. tanks. and this is what, what this packages is tailored to do. do you think this is going to be enough for care? they've always been calling for me or haven't they? they have well, yes and no yes. in the sense that it is a good 1st step in quantity, of course, it will have to be mentored. and this is what the 2nd package tries to do. but right now, key of these all the help we can get, not only symbolic, but also meaningful help on the ground. but do remember the russian offensive that is about to and has already started is also marked by, by the, by the lots of that russia has, has incurred, in the, in the 1st stage of the war. so russia to does not have the manpower it had at the
1:34 pm
beginning of this war. but how long does it take to make a practical difference though on, on the ground when, as you say this offensive on the east is already taking place as we speak? well, it does require a bit more than than the original anti rockets. so, you know, it does require some training. it does require not only, you know, handing over the keys to, to the, the tanks or the armored vehicles, but also the maintenance that comes along with it. having said that though, it's not learning something new, you know, artillery pieces, you know, you just learned a specific items that you need to learn for. for specific i tell every piece, however, in essence, you don't have to learn how to use it. so there is some training involved, but it's not impossible. ok, hiring adel rasmussen that global there. thank you for being with us here today on algebra. now, ukraine's that nuclear agency has released
1:35 pm
a video sharing positions abandoned by russian forces in the novel exclusion zone. moscow's forces took control of the facility and nearby areas at the start of the war. the sites of the world's worst atomic disaster is still highly radioactive, including the soil that russian soldiers dug trenches in ukraine. government says this would have expose them to significant doses of radiation while ukrainians who fled up being worn to wait longer before returning. even if it seems that things are safer and give in western parts of the country, said lawson in berlin, spoke to some of those who decided to go these ukrainian refugees have made a very difficult decision to go back home. they're taking a 25 hour long journey, not knowing what they're going to find. although they will warmly welcomed here after the russian invasion. they now can't wait to go back and we learn it's,
