9:04 pm
when you speak about odessa from the shipping point of view, you're speaking not only about one or 2 in odessa, but also do satellite words in canada and sharing a modest 30 kilometers around. and they comprise our, our, the 60 percent of ukrainian expert and 90 percent of the ukranian grain experts. since the war started russian forces of targeted hospitals, apartment blocks and other civilian buildings. the world health organization is gathering evidence for possible bull crime investigation. that nature has not verified. 200 attacks on healthcare in ukraine. since the room began. miss abbess must stop. in the city of the parisha, that's been a steady flow. the vacuum ease being both from the passage steel plant, a very awful ukraine's government says all civilians have now been rescued. ah, civilians and soldiers have been trapped inside the assault still steel mill for nearly
9:05 pm
2 months as russian attacks intensified. surrender is not an option because the roster is not interested in our life. the. i'm not interested to let us know. ah, as russia prepared to mark it's victory day, a monday which celebrates the soviet union with against nazi germany in world war 2 . if not clear yet how this conflict where both sides have been folk battles and the 1940s will end up laura pat manley al jazeera or let's get an update now from ukraine and speak to us i bake was in, didn't pro for is so aside, let's talk about the situation, mary paul, for the last of the civilians who are whole w at the steel plan. they have arrived in jeopardy. understand bring us up to speed . but the latest yes. what we've heard is that women, children and the elderly have been evacuated and made their way to that to reach
9:06 pm
where they will have food, clothing, and shelter. and this will be really for the ukrainian government because they have been making several attempts to try and get those people out of the tank through humanitarian cardoso. understand that this was under the united nations and international committee of the red cross. now that would be a really for the ukrainian government, but they still soldiers inside that plant. now, the situation marable has been going on for months. it was besieged strategic port city. and there were several attempts to create monetary car doors and si fi. and each time, either cyber blame each of the breaching those and throughout the last 2 months, they happen people leaving that city, going to say for parts of ukraine, but it hasn't just been as easy as having human gen cargoes and leaving mario, paul, there's been some veteran going gone by the russians to allow people out. and when we were in zachary, just just over a month ago, and we heard some harrowing stories of some of the 1st people to escape that besieged city. so yes, it will be a relief for the ukraine government,
9:07 pm
but as i said, there are still soldiers in the field sent for. and so what's going to happen then, will russia attack this still plant? well so far, prisoner vladimir putin has said that he doesn't want his soldiers to storm that plant. he thought it was too risky for his soldiers. it would cost you many lives, but that is $1.00 of the largest metal fans in europe. it's around 10 clumped squares. it has a array of tunnels and rooms underneath there. her but the deputy commander of the as of battalion has said that they will fight until the end are and that they have water and weapons to do that. however, he was critical in an online press conference of the ukrainian government and politicians. there's a feeling that they have been left in mary paul, 2 are on their own that they haven't been given support or some of the workers have been coming in to ukraine. haven't got to them and what they've appealing to is a 3rd party so they can have, those are injured in fact, you evacuated and so the conflicts, if they're dead, know who that 4th 3rd party will be. and if that will happen is
9:08 pm
a different question. but it does come a day before russia or celebrates its victory day with the soviet union defeated nazi germany. and so far the russians are, would like to use mary paul as a victory. it's significant in terms of strategic location, but also the narrative from russia has been that they are di, not find ukraine, and that's been disputed by the ukrainians. but what does fall or fall in favor for the russians is that the as of battalion are a far right group that were incorporated into ukrainian military. and there was want to use that. or at least as a political points are in may be tomorrow's victory day. thank you for there are st . big with the latest air from denise pro in ukraine as i bring in as she harbor tansy in washington, d. c. she had ross of diplomatic moves happening today. talk to her 1st about the significance of the u. s embassy. i reopening in the south moving back to keep well, it is a temporary move there. this, this, the, the behind the scenes a say about when they're saying, look, this is not the official reopening yet. it is the 1st time the u. s. embassy has
9:09 pm
reopened since just before the war began. but us diplomats are in keep to stand with ukrainian officials when ukraine commemorates and celebrates victory. davy, the view of the collaboration of the soviet defeats of nazi germany. i guess what, what were, what, what were expecting that on monday would be a counterpoint and the visuals that were expecting from moscow of flattery. putin serve, strengthen moscow. i guess what we can expect then is, is u. s. officials and ukranian officials in keith. also commemorating victory against the nazis in their own symbolic manner. and talk to us about the new sanctions d 7 leaders and announced against russia and our call they've had with the ukranian peasant today. yeah, there was a, a virtual, a virtual summits. and once again, everything time to round victory day or on monday in moscow and
9:10 pm
a very strong statement. i mean i guess clearly what, what the g several to try to do with the statement is, is really twist the knife in. i mean, you got underestimate how important the soviet vic, trevor of banassi, germany is. and the fact that gave frank historian, sickness was, it's greg when his, it comes out. it's the soviet, the defeat of a balance is not the western allies and that answer. so what we see, the g 7 leaders saying here is 77 years later after the defeat of nazi germany, president putin, in his regime now chose to invade ukrainian unprovoked war of aggression against the sovereign country. his actions bring shame on russia and the historic sacrifices of its people. so trying to shame vladimir putin but also announcing various sanctions, once again the g 7 vowing to and its reliance on russian oil. and then what we heard from the state of problems was that the tactic is now to try and have to try and go off to asymmetric service as things of russia can't replace. so the
9:11 pm
going off in our business services management, consulting accountants, and so accounting services for russian companies as well as role goods for russia's industrial base. more sanctions on russian t. v. stations trying to prevent western advertises from spending millions of dollars in advertising on russian t. v. stations and more visa restrictions on what the state department calls russian leitz. she had thank you for that. she ever tansy lived there in washington, d. c. at e crane city of odessa has come and increasing fire. in the last few days, al jazeera is half, and my son is in the poor city where he says, as shrikes have become more frequent in the past 24 hours. now mozilla is said to hurt them. what acura we are witnessing, continuous targeting of the odessa region, particularly the city. recently the sirens stopped for about 2 hours before which we heard a huge explosion so far. the reason for this explosion has not been declared.
9:12 pm
however, however, social media activists monitored the downing of a rocket in the odessa sky. 6 rockets were targeted yesterday. the military department in odessa and the southern region said that 4 rockets were aimed toward residential areas. we visited them earlier today and saw that these were workshops and stores near the airport and the ukraine. no authorities, confirmed 2 of the 6 rockets targeted the airport runway and radar tower. and the attacks came from the military side of the runway. we've received no confirmation as to whether the targeted buildings were used to store weapons or fuel. however, we witnessed the effect of this targeting when the place was on fire, and thick smoke was billowing high to that. well, well, as you've heard europe, his marking these 77th anniversary of victory against marci gemini, at the end of world war 2, germans have been brought up with reminders of their nation's role in sparking that war. no country suffered more casualties at the hands of the nazis and the soviet
9:13 pm
union. back then ukrainians and russians fought side by side by the current conflict as bringing back unwelcome reminders of the past. for many in gemini dominic cane report, somebody at 1st glance the german russian museum and cause horst might seem an unremarkable building. yet within its walls or reminders its importance in history for this is where the tyranny of nazi germany was finally ended. when its most senior soldiers surrendered to their counterparts from the ussr, tens of millions of soviet citizens had been murdered in out of hitler's war of annihilation. and so this was a victorious moment of unity for russians and ukrainians. yet 77 years on those 2 peoples are again at war with each other. and for the director of this museum, vladimir putin, military actions in ukraine now have persuaded him to remove the reference to
9:14 pm
russia in his museums name. the propaganda in russia is, is focusing on all the, the naming in the world war 2 and talking about fascists and, and crania, which is a lie. so our job will be to, to make clear what really happened in history and world war 2. in the decades that followed generations of germans were told of the sins of the nazis. and thus the feeling seemed to take hold. don't antagonize russia rather do deals with it drawers into the community of nations through trade. above all, give no country weapons with which to fight russia. it's a policy the present day. ukrainian president has repeatedly called on germany to renounce without god or chicone. what peter in the was here, and every time we talked to germany, we remind them that we have no, they have something they don't know which we need
9:15 pm
a lot year. so many here shadonna, they feel germany should be helping the key of government much more. and now finally, so too, does the chancellor affect d, i? i respect any one's pacifism. i respect any attitude, but it must seem cynical to a citizen of ukraine to be told to fight back against putin's aggression without weapons. this is something that is out of date now with weapons like these millions of russians and ukrainians fought and died to defeat the nazis. what might those soldiers of fort van to learn that one day that 2 countries would be at war with each other? in 1945, many in the free world saw the russian soldier as a friend and liberty. so far fewer do so now dominate, came al, jazeera, but the soviet war memorial in berlin and timor had on this news hour, including a new probate. jing leader is chosen for hong kong. former security chief john lee

9:18 pm
in that i guess number may be. mm hm. we know about his father's legacy. and marcus junior has promised that he will change the price of electricity when he returns the government. the price of goods to will come down. marco's junior is able to limit scrutiny by avoiding media his campaign, dean's unfriendly accessories press conferences and campaign events are tightly controlled. he also limits his appearances and interviews and debates. his message to filipino voters is one of unity urging them to move on from the past. simple but ambiguous. he hasn't offered anything concrete to us in terms of plans and programs and policies for us to even make an educated speculation of what his administration might be. but the irony is there like the being journal. and the reason why it's very dangerous is because of the past ah,
9:19 pm
that there he carries no. and that's the past of martial law and dictatorship. the results of monday's election will have a huge impact on the future of the philippines. florence lee al jazeera manila and his al jazeera is jemila and in dog and now on how the roman catholic church could influence the vote. it may seem like a typical sunday in the country considered the last bastion of catholicism in asia, but prayers have never been more earnest. what is it over the last few months, the hierarchy of the roman catholic church has strongly campaigned for the presidential run of the leader of the opposition. lenny labrador, who also happens to be the country's vice president, but even in a country where more than 85 per cent of filipinos or catholics, it remains to be seen whether this endorsement will be enough to make her when i,

9:35 pm
be able to shake things up? you think? well that's certainly the ho then that's what he's been elected to do. i mean goes to rico like every country and those really battered by the coven pandemic. they haven't quite come out of it. primarily from the economic side that comes to read. it depends a lot on tourism and of course so the tourism sector, the written industry was really ravaged by cold it and it hasn't yet recovered and post re gus and so on. employment is high. there are questions about the high debt loans for government and more in terms of public health. and the inequality is increasing and costa rica traditionally very egalitarian society. so that matters in the minds of many costa rican voters. and so they're taking a chance on the former finance minister and see if he can help bring the country out of it's not a crisis but economic difficult. he's promised to tackle indeed call 3 because economic problems. but, you know, with only 10 representatives in the 57, the legislature can, can he get anything done?
9:36 pm
well, what obstacles if you're going to face? that's a really important question. the short answer is you have to compromise. he's going to have to really go over and for the people and not for their own base. and in fact, he's not probably the stablish party. so his base is also quite narrow, although there are some indications that he is at least considering thinking about if you can't get a legislative program through the post re compounder of the legislature, which is powerful. and those 3, gus, he has mentioned that he would not be averse to doing things like trying to rule with some executive decrees and trying to do things that are outside of the legislative process. that gives some concern to some outside servers for sure, of course. so we have to see if he's actually going to do that. i would have to say, goes to reagan is a very strong democracy. it's democrat, institutions are sound. and most likely, if he does that, it will be at the margins, costa rican, people really demand a democratic governance. i was going to ask you how that would go down with the people if you decided indeed, by decree. yeah it's,
9:37 pm
it's probably not going to be very well regarded very well, except that we do have to recognize that you know, the last election in april the turn out works historically low and so close to recon citizens themselves. although they are tuned into democracy and they do and on it and certainly support it. nonetheless, the practice of democracy is also faces and challenges even in a country are strong as opposed to rica. so that's something we have to keep our eye on. but look, i mean he's, he's elected to do a job. he has the supports of people to do that job and we'll see if he can get it done. right. you talked about the economy, of course, and some of the comic problems that he's going to have to deal with. what are the other issues that he should be focusing on vital right away? you think he's got some real challenges, like many other people around the world in terms of inflation, in terms of consumer prices that are increasing particularly and in terms of energy and food spiked by russia as invasion of the brain certainly goes to rita does not
9:38 pm
produce energy or a lot of the food, so the import those things and therefore the prices go up and that's going to hurt the consumers at the same time with high unemployment and post to reach. and he's also grappling with increasing migration flows from his neighbor to the north. nicaragua, the economy is collapsing, in fact, population flow out of nicaragua is increasing many to the united states. but also south to undergrad was traditional, you know, employment creative goes to reagan. so he's got some issues there he's got to deal with. well, thank you so much for talking to us about the funds or vice president of the council of the americans joining us there from washington. we appreciate your time . thank you. but my former leader of brazil vowels he will be far i present jane abbas narrow in october's election, 76 year old lucy, nancy lula desilva last hell the country. 12 years ago before being jailed in a corruption scandal. monica in a cave re, for some sample ah,
