a low in the shelling bush which we feel we have to do some think because people have to live. it's as simple as that. when we go in, we are very anxious, but when we get people out, we feel joy, others, we destroyed buildings begin to appear as we enter town. the bus stops and we walk down into a nearby bunker all in our fled shelling around the town of kraemer tossed with her 2 daughters, uva and maria. she says she is too afraid to leave the relative safety of the underground shelter. i've been watching these can attend to snell. the children are terrified of the shelling shells are hitting buildings near our home. it's not as loud under ground that if the streets above a virtually empty rushing shells of hit residential housing blocks nearby, people stop boarding the bus. some have bought their pants, sisters moms and dads,

a residential building with 5 people inside. and girl was also injured and taken to hospital. now there have been more rush of tax in the city in recent weeks. well in his nightly address, ukrainian present blood, miss linds express outrage at the a desa attack. so we need to come in the future. today, the russian army launched another few rockets on a desa. they destroyed a hostile or killed a 14 year old boy wounded a 17 year old girl. she has a shell fragment in her body. what's the point? what for what dane to those children pose, the russian state. fires destroyed a historic school in the east in ukrainian city of the hands of the russian shelling on sunday. the hands, military administered military administration of the school as one of the best institutes in the region. and the building is more than a century old. governor of the region has urged people to evacuate while they can. a shilling intensified. even humanistic have met for an extraordinary session over

russian demands to pay for oil and gas in russian roubles. the blog says those conditions can not be met and any circumstances. the energy commissioner has, as companies do to pay gas from in a few days to consider other options. dominant came reports of berlin. for years, russian fossil fuels have been a main energy source for much of europe. on an average day, the e u bies, in as much as $1000000000.00 worth of coal, gas, and oil. but moscow is now insisting customers from what it calls hostile states pay for their gas in rubles, and of switched off supply to the bulgarians. and polls for failing to do so, forcing the you into an emergency meeting on energy security, many or financial companies. i try to make that next payment to gasp, i'm in meet may and are trying to understand better. but they should do. and we

need to give them the clarity that bank robbers, through their conversion mechanics managed by the russian public authorities. and a 2nd dedicated accounting cast from bank is a violation of the sanctions and cannot be accepted. in essence, this meeting deferred lasting solutions, leaving that option instead for a full e u summit at the head of state level. at the end of the month, the sticking point has been how to help members states who are most dependent on russian energy. how would they want to know who's going to take care of them? is their solidarity in the european union? it's one thing her solitary, when everybody storage is full, will there be solidarity with storage isn't full and that's germany. for example, has the biggest storage after ukraine. we know the problem and ukraine. they should step up and say, we're going to share with you what we can. the european commission is already said . it wants to reduce its dependence on russian energy by 2 thirds this year. but

the german government wants to act sooner, where possible agreeing to embargo russian coal from august and wanting to stop using its oil by the end of the summer, with gas to follow as quickly as possible. which means uncertainty for refineries such as sh, fit in eastern germany each year. it processes more than $11000000.00 tons of russian crude oil. it's currently majority owned by the moscow based company, but all sniffed in some ways. berlin's changing approach to russian fossil fuels has been a process, not an event. when the war started, ministers avoided encouraging embargoes. but as the conflict in ukraine has evolved, so to has their position here, dominant cane al jazeera in the german capital. israel has demanded an apology from moscow after russia's foreign ministry. a minister sokulaf ross romance,

claiming the adult hitler had jewish blood, not russia's ambassador to israel was summoned for talks. law brussels has said that the ukrainian presents jewish heritage doesn't contradict moscow's claims of the countries run by nazis. and he added a claim that in his words, some of the worst anti semites or jews varies that hitler was part jewish or widely dismissed and rejected by historians. italy's prime minister maria druggie described la ross remarks which were made on italian television as obscene. a chairman of israel's holocaust memorial yard beacham has called the remarks abhorrent, despicable, and contrary to historical truth. therefore, as for the ukrainian to agree on government that the president zalinski barbecue loudly as madly is also a policy, actually is the distortion of the holocaust. is there any gratian of the victims of the oligarchy? because they are not the men something like that. so it's something not to look

terrible. so we can them both think the strongest. ah dogs the falls, the cleveland listen, made by foreign minister, the live rope. another russian official, the phones of spanish prime minister petra sanchez and his defense minister have been hacked. government officials, they pick up the spyware, which is made by the israeli m. s. a group was used with struct information from such as his phone, at least once that comes weeks after it was revealed that dozens of political figures in catalonia were targeted by spyware. jody west be is executive chief executive at cyber security global cyber risk. she says, there isn't any relo sites to how the software is being used. well, the government licenses that what you know, i think the software just needs to be prohibited. the united states is prohibited at the e. u is looking at this, and it is a terribly invasive and destructive spyware. that so doesn't have access to the

data, how it's being used. so once of government licenses that there's really no one exercising oversight. and it's for intelligence are certainly not going to allow another, another government like israel, to have oversight on how they're using it. so it, you know, yes, we have countries with intelligence operations, but usually they build their own capabilities. and we leave it to each country to sort of develop their best mousetrap. but this software is invasive. it's destructive and it actually puts lives at risk. it's very dangerous. and israel is trading diplomatic favors or other kinds of favors that they want with certain countries. and whether they license it to them or not, the temptation is so great. once you have the tool and it is so powerful, it's very hard to detect. it can ex filtrate, massive amounts of information from my phone and i and it, it, so it's destructive. but the temptation to use it in all sorts of ways is almost

uncontrollable. so i, it is a, a problem that we've seen abuses with activists and journalists and government officials and members of the judiciary and legislative branches and all being targeted well still had, here on the al jazeera, large wildfires out of control across the south west us farms like to say things will get worse before they got better. also the soon celebrate the stall to the holiday, even city suffering. civil war. oh, attorney has begun the faithful world copies on its way to the castle. travel package to the hello there. the weather's looking rather fine across much of
