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 air is 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 for the remaining civilians there. he says that to russian forces control about half that town, a very dangerous road for civilians trying to get out of it. there also, now there are a number of other towns around papa 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 movement to try and surround the strategically important, very large city of slab 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 ukranian forces 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 ukrainians and the russians that this as the russians call it, 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. we have there, such a bar is standing by for us in moscow. but 1st,

let's cross over to had our bill hamid he's joining us from board, yank i. so what is the situation where you are? well, the situation is just as you can see behind me, i mean it's, it's actually difficult to describe the amount of destruction that you see in this village. a boy don't, guy is not bigger than a village this, these are private homes actually earlier. the owner of this home, an old lady, called valentina, was here trying to salvage anything she could from to wreckage. and i asked her, what did you get out of it? and she just showed me a few pillows that she had put in the car. and now she told me she spent a whole war so until the 29th of march in the basement of her house. and when she came out, this is what she found her whole life reduced absolutely to rubble. and then if you have a little walk around here now the, the,

it has been some work to clear out all this area of piles and piles of rubble. but look at this apartment building. it's quite impressive to see you can see does one block of the apartment, not there any more, everything charge. i don't think anyone can come and live here. maybe those buildings will have to be torn down and brought up again. now, driving here does about a 2 hour drive from kim, what you do see is pockets of exactly that same scene. civilian targets. i houses lives of people completely destroyed and there's no way they could come back and live in this village at least for the foreseeable future. and as i said, you see that in village after village old away from here to keep just to give you an idea of what happened here. and when you look at this, you can imagine what's going to happen in a dumbass. you can imagine what's unfolding at the moment in more you put where the fight is even much more virulent than what has happened here. yeah,

that's pretty astonishing. who dan, speaking of maria pull him in moscow has given ukrainian forces in merkel. and yet another deadline to surrender. what can you tell us about what's going on there? it is very difficult to have a full image of full idea of what's going on day. certainly a very dire situation. there are still civilians that are hold up in that as of steel complex that is south of the city of mar, you pull a very large area where you have with them, with the civilian. you also have the last members of the ukrainian forces and the last members of the as of regiment that are holding a stand by their out numbered. they are outgunned by the russians and they really hold up in that area over the past few days. we so videos of the head of the as of regimen saying please that the they needed help. they needed to be extracted,

showing videos of these are civilians that are in the basement. there among them many, many childrens, quite surprising to see such young children still trapped inside my uber. and then earlier we had a, we heard from the head of the commander of the ukrainian marines there. and this is what he had to say. this is one of the few film would have would not remove. this is our appeal to the world. this could be our last appeal of our lives. your may be facing our last days. if not hours. the enemies outnumbering us tend to one. they have advantage in the air in artillery, in their forces on land equipment and in tanks were only defending one object, the adult cell plant, where in addition to military personnel, there are also civilians who are formed victim to this war. we appeal and plead to all world leaders to help us with our

now, while this is unfolding in my you book, these also the russians and the separate is making a push throughout the. 9 dumbass region, the ukranian army needs a lot of help and that's it exactly what it's getting busy. there is another shipment of military aid arriving soon into the country as, as we understand it. 8th has landed in poland and is coming here. it's coming from the u. s. anti air misses, anti ship missiles. and these hope these as sort of the artillery ammunition that are also coming, the ukraine's actually need some training to use that because that is as a new weapon that is introduced. it is that the bill would be at $18.00. all right, i do apologize. we have lost our connection with her dad. did hamid her there was reporting from boards, young cough for us. let's find out what the kremlin is saying all about all of this

and what is worse of jabari, she's running us for moscow. so what official word is there from the kremlin and specifically doors on that push for them. boss? well as the feeling here is that these shipments of weapons from the united states to the government in kiev are extremely dangerous and counterproductive. the air russian defense minister survey chicago said that the weapons that have been supplied to ukraine from the united states have one aim and that is to drag out this conflict for as long as possible and to take it to the point of the last ukranian soldier. it talking about how the aim of the united states is something different than of what the government in care of is trying to do. at the defense minister also highlighted the fact that this is something that the a russian government has a been against for a very long time. we also understand the just last week there was

a note that was given to the government in washington from the russian embassy. they're saying that the a continuous shipment of weapons to ukraine will have unexpected consequences. the russians did not to as specify what that means or explain that any further, but it gives you an idea of how that's viewed here. that is in reference to the nearly $2500000000.00 the united states has. i given it to the government in key have so far in military assistance as well as aid the officials who have said that really the western countries that are supplying the weapons to ukraine have their own agenda and a the, a conflict that is ongoing could have ended much sooner had it not been for those of weapons that are being poured into ukraine. now that is on the security front. now we've also been hearing from the russian foreign ministry on the diplomatic

front. we understand that as the russians are looking at, and they're making preparations to open their embassies in those separatist health areas that russia has recognized as independent miss regions in lugens and don't yes, in the eastern part of ukraine. this is the 1st we've heard of their plants, actually open embassies there. according to officials from the foreign ministry, they have not set a date yet. that preparations are underway. we've also been hearing from the premise spokesperson, dmitri pess golf, who has shared that, that the russians have not sent a proposal, a draft proposal to the premiums about those negotiations. and they have now specified clearly the language in this proposal that they've handed over to you negotiators. and according to dmitri prescott, they are waiting for a response and that the ball is now in their court. in ukraine, the russians have choose ukrainian negotiators of changing the contents of any

agreement that they had in a stumble in the march when all sides met in person. and the russian president vladimir putin has said over the past week that he's not so confident about these negotiations. and they seem to have reached the dead end. despite that, they should still continue on a daily basis in a video conference format between russian negotiators and the ukrainians. and now we've heard that the officials from russia have handed over a new or amended proposal, and they are waiting to find out what the ukrainians will respond. all right, you'll keep us across the story for the time being. doors are very, thank you so much for that reporting from moscow. in new delhi city officials use bulldozers to re shop stalls on properties. they say are illegal. their actions continue despite india top court ordering a whole to the eviction drive. it happened in the jo, hunger, poor neighborhood. that's where most of the residents are muslim. 4 days ago, there were violent confrontations in the area between largely hindu and muslim
