12:00 am
the last 6 or 7 hours, and it's not clear whether u. s. military investigators have been able to get to the site if they've been invited by the polish government to go to the site, to inspect the damage and to see what actually happened. and so there is a real reluctance on the part of the u. s. government to make any sort of declarative statement. the sort of statement that we have seen in some news reports, particularly coming out of warsaw in the past several hours. the u. s. government is very much sensitive to the fact that it does not want to be seen as trying to escalate this conflict in any way between russia and ukraine. and certainly, it does not want to bring in members of nato, of which poland is a member into a conflict. if there is no justifiable reason to do so, there's a very high bar for i'll try to invoke what is known as an article 5 response. that notion of mutual self defense. and this is
12:01 am
a situation where you as the authorities want to be certain that thing know what they're talking about before they actually make more declarative statements. rosen, jordan, thank you very much. indeed. in response that russians, defense ministry is reported to have sent statements by punish media and officials about the russian missiles hitting punish territory and deliberate provocation. with the aim of escalating the situation, it went on to say no strikes against targets near the ukrainian polish folder. have been carried out by russian weapons when we joined earlier by montage than glad shake. who's the editor in chief of o. net. a news outlet in poland happened in the countryside. it happening in a very small village about a 90 matters from the border of ukraine, close to the city of wolf and on the other side of the border. there is the
12:02 am
transportation that is used by ukrainian train and would think that the train station was the target of the most valuable tag by russian military. and we don't know why them. we started with the tray. we don't think we truly something that poland was actually a target of the attack. but we don't think that the messiah was tired of schools for some reason. when to try and cross the border unfolding. poland for things that were too much, i went to poland and that's what we know for now. but that's all we know for now. the and the area where it happened is actually closed. the reporters saw from on that and other media in poland. they are trying to get to decide higher understanding is that they meeting the military experts who went to decide of the to the place where they went to place today. and they listening to the military experts and depending on what the experts told them, depending on what really happened because so far we don't know depending on what
12:03 am
happened, there will be a reaction from the post government. there will be a consultation with the night. i live with ultimate a member member states. that's why you heard the pentagon spokesperson so coming up that they don't know what happened so far because they also, they also waiting for the post government stablish. what happened were monday, watching out there live from london, where we monitoring it, reaction to reports that russian missiles of crossed into poland, killing at least 2 people. it happened during a series of russian attacks on several cities across ukraine, including the capital. keith, ukraine's president has called this an escalation and says he has long warned that russian actions are not limited to ukraine. nato says it is investigating the report during the whole joined his live from keith and journey you've seen today the, the kind of the consequences of those various attacks within the ukraine. and now
12:04 am
this, what was the last case calling an escalation. but the russians are saying, is it provocation to talk us through the very latest reaction from where you are. well, this is causing quite a ripple of reaction among european allies. as you can imagine, nato countries in particular, who have sat for 9 long months, just across the border from this conflict between ukraine and russia. many have supplied ukraine with large amounts of military equipment, hardware, munitions, and so on. but of sat with some trepidation wondering whether at some point the conflict would spill over ukraine's borders and begin to draw some of them in. and they will sit tonight with great concern, wondering whether potentially this is the moment to miss aisles. it appears, landing on polish territory. apparently, russian. certainly they are. russians are being accused of firing those missiles.
12:05 am
no evidence is yet being brought to bear to prove that. and we await the outcome of a polish security council meeting. the emergency meeting called by the post the government opponent, including the president, the prime minister, security chiefs, army chiefs and so on to hear what they have to say that will be crucial. but the finger very firmly pointed at russia. and the question is, were these missiles fired deliberately at nato territory at poland, they killed 2 people on nato territory, or wished it was this? some sort of inadvertent unforeseen consequence of the wave of missile attacks launched at least 2 waves against ukraine during the course of the afternoon 90 to a 100 cruise missiles followed by russia against 10 regions, 1012 cities in this country targeting particularly the energy infrastructure, were these 2 missiles that went, of course, that perhaps were intercepted by ukrainian air defense and continued spiraling,
12:06 am
perhaps tens of kilometers further through the landing in poland, as has happened elsewhere before these are the questions being asked now among nato members in european allies. what happens next? does nato get involved? does poland, which is no doubt now, coordinating very closely with its nato allies, probably most closely with the united states. just poland. call this some sort of an act of war. or do they all try to, might take a much more diplomatically cautious approach and, and choose not to escalate. i think this is a very sensitive, very careful situation. we are looking at now. and in a sense, as i say, all eyes now on poland. it is for poland to come out, i think and describe the next move. and those next move will be discussed. we've had to from the french president to the thing is expect discussion at the g 20 over these reports of a russian missiles hitting poland. and as you mentioned,
12:07 am
a number of countries around the world have reacted to this. also, the latvian defense minister saying that nato could provide ad defenses to poland and part of the territory of ukraine, which is we were talking about earlier perhaps what something that ukraine would would be looking for was to get improvement in, in the kind of protection that has what we'll look certainly from the point of view of the ukrainians and we were discussing this a short while ago, but certainly from the point of view of the ukrainians. this potentially is a moment of opportunity for president zelinski to reiterate the warnings that he has sounded for a long time. now that this is not simply a war, confined to the borders of his country, a war between russia and ukraine, but a war that risks at every turn and every moment escalating beyond those borders potentially. and exactly the scenario that has happened this afternoon. he has sounded those warnings and his finance minister. i beg your pardon, his foreign minister to meet dmitri labor has spelt it out in much more specific
12:08 am
terms. he says the response that ukraine wants to see is that nato summit, which ukraine is invited to be present, where they all sit down and talk about the next move. as far as russia is concerned, but in specific terms that they discuss arming ukraine better. beyond the enormous amount of military equipment and a that ukraine receives all the time and has done all along, but give them much more specific weaponry to control the skies. even mentioned f 15 and f 60 f. 16 jets they wanted since the beginning of this war to institute no flies or nato has not wanted to get involved with its own weaponry in implementing that no fly zone. because that would bring them potentially into direct conflict with russia. is this the moment when need to recalculate? ukraine will certainly be help except turner. how thank you very much indeed. opponent, as we mentioned, is it. nato member and nature and eyes from estonia to belgium have reacted
12:09 am
strongly. lithuanian president. you tell us no, said or wrote on twitter concerning news from poland tonight, or at least 2 explosions, keeping a close contact with our polish friends. if you and you stand in strong solidarity with poland, every inch of nature territory must be defended. look at some more european reaction from natasha butler in paris and had been coming in thick and fast. isn't it? natasha? yes, and not have your reaction to, as you would imagine, to the news. all these missiles that have fallen in poland a lot more cautious. reaction from western european countries, i should say, certainly not at all pointing the thing. taking a much more cautious approach we, we've already heard, for example, on a twitter, the german foreign minister saying my thoughts are with poland. we are closely monitoring the situation, the prime minister of belgium,
12:10 am
strongly condemning the incidence. he calls it on polish territory and he also sends condones is to the family to the families, the victim saying we are all part of the same nato family. we have seen though, is some eastern block european countries certainly taking a very different approach pointing the finger role. the rapidly off the news of those missiles broke a little bit earlier, the latvian foreign minister said russian missiles a hitting the territory of nato. this is a dangerous escalation. the slovak defense minister, also talking about russian missiles and saying russia must explain. but of course is, as you know, we've been hearing. we don't know that these all russian missiles we are waiting to hear more from poland, from an investigation that is taking place in the consultation to taking place between poland, all these a european allies as to exactly where those missiles came from. but there is no
12:11 am
doubt, there is a lot of anxiety in european capitals, a because of this news. the news of these miss all attacks and in the capitals of nato member countries, we know the north atlantic treaty article 5. we've been hearing it from many people this evening. that could mean an attack on any natal member is considered by the alliance as an attack on all members, opponent of course. and they remember has been for, for 2 decades. so a lot of anxiety and european capital, the head of the e. u foreign policy chief, the foreign policy chief, i should say, if the european union use that burrell also say the use and consultations with parliament, we have to wait to hear what will come out of those consultations. and just what we've been told you the was dropped from the french defense ministry saying that president mccall has asked to carry out necessary verification work off to explosions in poland close to the cranium border border. so the kind of cautious response that you were suggesting that the western european countries are,
12:12 am
are giving to this and, but also that the mac whole area was saying that expects us to be discussed at the g 20 yes, imagine of course so many i had some state the g 20 no doubt this will be one of the main topics of discussion. and in fact, the news of these missiles falling in poland comes on the same days a here in europe. you defense ministers were meeting earlier today for them. the main topic on their agenda was rushes war in ukraine. the you talking about balsam that support, particularly militarily for ukraine, continuing to support keith as it tries to fend off those russian tags. this is only going to shop in mind. we'll have to see whether or not you defense ministers or the you called any form of emergency meeting to discuss what has happened this evening. because this is, this could be seen as a dangerous escalation. if you want to use the words of the
12:13 am
a slovak defense minister or a get, but again, you know, so many european leaders will want to be taking a cautious purge because nobody actually wants, of course, is conflict to be escalated any further than need be in touch thank you very much indeed. and we're just getting some news in from the polish government spokesman. the saying we're raising readiness of military units in response to this attack and the, there was an explosion that killed to powder citizens. this is according to the purchase government spokesman. it also said we are raising the readiness of military units, will bring you more on the polish response. they've been having a security meeting. as a result of this, in response, russia's defense ministry is reported to his said, statements by polish media and officials about the russian missiles hitting punish territory are a deliberate provocation with the aim of escalating the situation. when tom, to say no strikes against targets near the ukrainian polish border,
12:14 am
have been carried out by russian weapons. which i know has more now on the missile attacks that have struck several cities across ukraine. it was one of the largest miss barrows is yet to be unleashed hitting targets across ukraine. an hour before this was a residential building in central keith. one of 2 struck not far from the presidential administration show. i know the strikes disabled, our electrical grid and ministers of our country. we are working will restore everything that will good through everything glory to ukraine. ukrainian government believes more than 90 missiles were launched at targets in 10 regions and up to 12 cities. somewhat in our air defense took out 70 rockets, but unfortunately, 15 rockets hit energy infrastructure as city official after city official reported
12:15 am
explosions. it became clear that not for the 1st time, ukraine's ability to produce and distribute electricity was under fire. cities in the north, south center and west reported partial or total blackouts. the national energy company described the situation as critical. these attacks then, a sequel to a wave of weekly strikes in october ahead of what for many will be a crippling winter. when, if the object of this wave of strikes was to hit critical infrastructure and further pressurize the national grid, it's clearly working. look at that, and emergency operation taking place at the sight of one of the strikes hearing keys. with the exception of a spotlight driven by a generator, it's taking place in almost total darkness. petro romance, sugar, described the moment his building was hit, killing a neighbor he knew well, actually saw the flame to the exposure happened. clos, shattered and smoke filled apartments. the neighbor because the met her
12:16 am
a boot and was very neighborly. they say she died. tuesday's attack comes days after rushes humiliating withdrawal from the southern port city of san. it also coincides with the g 20 meeting in bali, where leader after leader coltrane end to the war, rushes answer with $7000000.00 ukrainians now said to be without power, is clearly no jona, i'm just there is harry for cities. recent return key veterans begin in the studio now. so we were getting some reaction only from the, from the polish government to talk through what they've been saying. yes, not very much so far, but there's a spokesperson from the polish government saying that they are raising the readiness of the military units. and they are looking into whether it is necessary to invoke article 4 of the name. so treaty, now of the article 5 we will know about both was about which is the idea of an attack on one member of nato's, an attack on all. and therefore, the collective self defense of the alliance comes into play and all actions up to it, including military response. therefore,
12:17 am
on the table to an act that collective self defense article for is preliminary to that, it's about consultation. so up on the rich terms, whenever, in the opinion of any one, terry country, a territorial integrity, political independence, or the security of any of the parties comes into threat from an outside force, then those consultations can be enacted. so that's what the polish government is talking about so far in these very early stages. and as you say, it is early stages. so gives an indication of, of where we are. and what might might happen while we're still talking about what exactly did happen in polish territory? was it a russian strike, whether an errant, one or deliberate one? was it an attempt in the huge amount of men of military hardware in the era of the ukraine during the course of the day was one of those attempted to be shot down potentially debris, potentially inherent defense, mis are falling in polish territory. if we start with the said that it was
12:18 am
a rush missile to russian missiles that fell inside poland. i've been going through some of the analysis and commentary and, and sort of investigation already emerging online. i think it broadly breaks down into 3 sort of narratives. the russians are saying that this is an attempt by ukraine in the west, deliberately, to provoke and escalate the situation. there are those inside ukraine who was saying that this is an attempt by russia to sort of do something denial, potentially do a bit more. but it had been doing so far in response to its defeat and curse on to escalate and show and signal and try to get the allies of ukraine to stand down and think again. and there is the 3rd option that it was in the errant targeting or, or missile that accidentally crossed into nato territory and kill 2 people inside poland. thank you very much indeed. thank you. well, your state development says the reports out of code and are incredibly concerning. it says it's working to determine what happened and appropriate next steps. the
12:19 am
united states is, is it certainly not trying to escalate or insight the situation at all? and like i said, we have seen the same reports that you all have, and we are working with the polish government to gather more information. and we're not at a point where we can confirm some of these reports that we're seeing. and that's why i'm telling you that we will come in when exactly as transpired, and we will determine appropriate next steps as well as jordan joins us live from washington dc. so cautious response, so far a very cautious response. so far we've heard this not just from the don patel who's the principal deputy spokesperson at the state department . but we have heard this from the national security council from the pentagon and does a very brief thought nata, attributed to acknowledgement from the u. s. intelligence community, this is
12:20 am
a situation where moving ahead carefully is of the utmost importance because the u . s. has been very careful not to try to do anything that would unnecessarily provoke a greater conflict between russia and ukraine since the invasion on february 24th. it's also worth noting that this happened, apparently about mid morning time, here on the u. s. east coast. and it's not clear whether the polish government wants to got word of this incident. actually invited the u. s. or any other regional military partners to help with. it's investigation it, there's also the complication that the president and the national security adviser and the secretary of state are all in bali, literally on the other side of the world. and so when this incident happened, this came near the end of their day of meetings at the g, 20 summit and bali. and so you have to deal with the coordination between
12:21 am
governments as they try to figure out how to proceed. but clearly, one thing has been a noticeable since the beginning of the war between russia and ukraine. and that is a decided to move to not aggravate the situation any more than it already was. being cautious is certainly something that we have seen from u. s. officials on tuesday and until there is definitive analysis of the material that is found in that village, several kilometers from the ukraine, poland border. there won't be anything of a more definitive. here's what happens now. message from the u. s. government. jordan, thank you very much indeed. a spokesperson for the polish government says the country is raising the readiness of its military units. earlier i spoke to barto reg logic, who's the editor in chief of o. net, a news outlet in poland. happened in the countryside. it happened in
12:22 am
a very small village about a 90 matters from the border of ukraine, close to the city of both and on the other side of the border. there is the translation that is used by ukrainian training, and we think that the train station was the target of the most popular tag by russian military. and we don't know why the hardest went the tray. we don't think we truly something that poland was actually a target of the attack. but we don't think that the most tile west high schools for some reason, went to try and cross the border and felt in poland. we think that we went to poland and that's what we know for now, but that's all we open out the, the area where it's happened is actually closed. the reporters from on it and other media and colon, they're trying to get to decide, i understanding is that they meeting the military experts who went to the side of
12:23 am
the place where the event took place today. and they listening to the military experts and depending on what the experts told them, depending on what really happened because so far we don't know depending on what happened, there will be a reaction from the polish government. there will be a consultation with the natal. i live with ultimate member state. that's why you heard the pentagon spokesperson coming out that they don't know what happened so far because they also, they also waiting for the police government to publish what happened. ukrainian president commissioner ski spoke a short time ago beat that i get them and put the firing missiles at nato territory as a russian attack on the collective security. this is a very significant escalation act. i want to say now to all the polish brothers and sisters, ukraine will always support you. repeat not be broken by tara or netherland. let's
12:24 am
get some more european reaction that from natasha butler and paris. and we hear that a native leaders talking back has been talking to allies and as monitoring the situation that closely yes, yet insult berg monitoring the situation closely. and as you can imagine, throughout this conflicts and russia, 1st invaded ukraine. in february, nato has been very careful with messaging, if you like, has been very cautious, very careful to not be seen to be escalating the conflict and ukraine in any way not to be seen to be involved. even though, of course, the member states are mostly supporting ukraine, sending weaponry to ukraine. and we've had a lot of reaction from various you, capitals, you members, western european nations, being a lot more cautious, really not wanting to point the finger saying we need to find out more about what
12:25 am
happened. we don't know where these missiles come from. the german foreign minister, for example, saying my thoughts are with poland, the french president, demo micro certainly been very cautious indeed calling these explosions that happened in po, not even using the word miss all saying the, the in all information needs to be verified before anyone can decide what to do next. the belgian prime minister, strongly conserving the incident, sending condolences of course, to the families of the victim, saying that we are all part of the nature family earlier in the evening though, we had some quite strong reactions from some eastern european members. you members pointing the finger russia saying these all russian missiles, that's what we heard from the latvian foreign minister saying these are russian missiles and hitting the territory of nato. this is a dangerous escalation slave act. defense minister,
12:26 am
russia must explain his actions. but again, as i said, i think we're saying much, many more cautious messages here, of course, condolences people express from their shock across europe in capital capital. the solidarity with colon nato members included or, but also steering away from saying this is necessarily, these are necessarily russian missiles and tell an investigation has been done until poland says what it has found out from its own consultations and natasha space throughout this company. there's always been the risk of some kind of spillover and it's a risk that they've been considering all along. yes, and just a few months, weeks, i should say, of the beginning of russia invasion of ukraine. some russian missile landed very close indeed to the polish border from 10 kilometers away. if i remember correctly, there were some villages near you, near the cranium border,
12:27 am
where the polish people were saying that they heard their windows rattling because these missiles had fallen on the crane inside. but so close to the polish board. and there was always a fear that this could happen on purpose accidentally, nobody can tell, but it was always something that was on the mind 30 of the many polish people that live along that border of the other neighboring countries to ukraine. so a lot of anxiety in various parts of europe because of course nobody in europe wants to see this conflict spread. this is a war in the heart of europe at a shot. so many people you very much saying that they are supporting ukraine, that they will continue to do so, militarily, nato also. but they certainly don't want to become involved in a wide escalated conflict. natasha. thank you very much indeed. was been this reaction from the latvian foreign minister at gorenca, which tweeted that russian missiles hitting the territory of nature member is
12:28 am
a very dangerous escalation by the kremlin. yeah. did not few express is full solidarity with our ally, poland, and will sport any action deemed appropriate why poland? russia will bear full responsibility for the consequences. when his mother news and the war and ukraine has dominated the agenda, the g 20 summit in bali in lees in president drago has told leaders the world cannot move forward until a conflict stops. jessica washington has moved from bali as woodley to meet in valley. they were greeted by a leader who usually shies away from global diplomacy to focus more on issues closer to home. now, as the warn ukraine takes its toll on the global economy, including developing countries like indonesia, ciocca, dodo took his place on the world stage with the warning for his fellow leaders of the g 20 year. responsible here also means that
12:29 am
we must and the war. if the war that's not, and it will be difficult for the was to move forward. the war ukraine is said to dominate the talks. it's the 1st time the group has met since the russian invasion and as many countries around the world struggle with rampant inflation and rising food and energy costs many say the 2 crises can not be separated. they've got chaos in energy markets. we've got issues in food security. clearly, the russian aggression in ukraine is the source of that, or most of the source of that, which is cranium. presidents. the loading muse lensky address elite is virtually appealing to them to work towards extending a deal, which allows green and other food commodities blocked at ukrainian ports by russian ships to be exported. the original arrangement is set to expire incoming days. i believe our export grant initiative deserves an indefinite extension. no matter
12:30 am
when the war and russian president vladimir putin is not attending the summit, sending his foreign minister in his place. she'll probably, i'm in the hall. it's all problems with the ukranian side, which is categorically refusing negotiations and putting forward conditions that are obviously unrealistic and do not correspond to the situation. the host of the summit, indonesia has repeatedly called the unity routed t 20 presidency in the hope members can focus on the global economic recovery rather than what divides them. and put aside tensions for the sake of the people they represent in a meeting with the french leader chinese president. she didn't being said the world has entered in period of turbulence and transformation. it's a message that has been echoed throughout this month of diplomacy in asia. while most leaders can agree the world faces many challenges achieving consensus on how to navigate those difficulties is where the differences lie. jessica washington out 0. any more than use in the eastern democratic republic of congo,
12:31 am
tens of thousands of left the home as violence near the key eastern border city of goma, where u. n. troops are patrolling the streets. villages in the area become the scene of battles between the congolese army and m. 23 fighters. the government accuses randa backing. the rebels the claim that country denies. welcome web reports from nicky village where hundreds of displaced people were seen making their way to go that we were just filming. so i go routine. us kind of dislike people, just off the hill from here. let me so dozens of cali soldiers on the back. the most by carrying weapons, racing paused, heading into the city a game on the side so you can see what's happening on the road. now. some of those soldiers were firing the air carrying gun class because the rocky launches, they rushed into the city and not prompted symphonic among the civilian population
12:32 am
. much of these peoples from the can you ever seen a counselor decides people's or they've already fled that home. within the last few weeks, and now, because they've seen these soldiers who were apparently fleeing from frontline, i picked up whatever possessions i could. and the heading into the city of goma. people here was scared of fighting and very many people with a scared of 23. the history of the accused the right to be including killing execution, a civilian rates and torture as well. so people here and now heading into the city a go remote is just the n 23 with rwandan bucking took in 2012 the following year. they withdrew with defeated by the congress on forces about a year ago. their rebellion restarts. it is widely understood to have rwandan support once again. and so what a lot of people
12:33 am
a wondering of what they fear is if am 23 fighters will take the city of goma. once again. in general committee, the red cross as to trucks carrying medical supplies of arrived in a few refuse to dry region is the 1st military and a delivery since a ceasefire agreement was signed between the government and rebels. earlier this month. in his 1st comment, since the truce prime minister abbey had promised to implement the deal, honestly saying it's necessary to ensure sustainable peace the true seems to end 2 years of complex, devastated to grow region, killing thousands of people and displacing millions. patrick yusef is the regional director for africa, the international committee of the red cross. he says the medical supply delivery is a welcome 1st step towards the implementation of ethiopia as p steel. the talk so need delivered 40 tons of medical items, emergency medicine, but also surgical equipment to help cover the immediate needs of thousands of
12:34 am
people in the region. a very welcome 1st step towards the implementation of the deal which, which is an important factor to bring more social services back to mckelly and the to region. it was quite, very difficult to see the resumption of the cities that said the teams of the i c and the yoke and across have been providing emergency assistance in the most effective areas of tea. right. and a far mostly focusing on improving access to water and sanitation, but also on the medical side of things. so quite intense in this service opening will certainly be thought, continue supporting more and more our field teams with much needed to us republican party is now just one seat away from controlling the house of representatives. they now have 217 seats, 218 and needed to form a majority. it's a week since the mid term elections and several seats are still being counted. the
12:35 am
democrats have retained control of the senate. they've won 50 seats, even if they lose the georgia run off. vice president come la harris retains a deciding vote. while the democratic candidate for governor in arizona, katie hope says defeated, her donald trump endorse rival carrie lake. the closely fort race in the battleground state was one of the most significant in the midterm elections, with lakes defeat all the major republican candidates in swing states who refused to accept the 2020 presidential results of loss. when few hours former us president donald trump will make what he's called a very big announcement. he's made no secret of his wish to launch a 3rd run for the white house. he was on the campaign trail during the mid term elections rallying for allied republican candidates. but most of those he backed in key races failed to be elected, opposed to a new man who killed free israelis and wounded 3 others in an attack in the
12:36 am
occupied westbank. 18 year old attacker was shot and killed by israeli security forces. it happened near the inigo is where the settlement of our, you know, group has claimed responsibility. but how must haled attack as heroic stephanie decker has more from western from what we understand, established security guard established a few more people at a gas station, and then stole a car driving against traffic, causing a car crash which killed another man. and then ran out and was shot dead by the israeli army. we understand now the army is in the village where he is from. this is pretty much what they always do when you have incidents of this kind. there is a back and forth with policies that religion also we understand. some settlers have gone to the area, but it comes at a time of a real political. i think significance in the sense that benjamin netanyahu,
12:37 am
the parliament convene today. and actually i will continue to try to form his government including who to point as defense, minister at the moment. but basil al smarter. it's really once that post, he is part of that very far right wing party and he doesn't have much experience in the army at all. but he is someone with an ideology that calls for, for example, the expulsion of palestinians deemed hostile to, to israeli da calls for the annexation of the west bank. so this is in that kind of a thinking. so seizing upon the incident today and saying that they need to do with the palestinians with a stronger hand, the americans knocking at all to have someone like small church in that position. so this is the sort of atmosphere and the timing of it launched into a breaking user, the reports of explosions or missile strikes in poland, a journalist, or reporting for so live from keith in ukraine. so this has been not moving very quickly, brings the very latest on, on what you know on, on the story. well, i can report you a few lines that take us
12:38 am
a little bit further in terms of understanding what may happen next. potentially in the form of coordinated nato action. comments from the nato secretary general jens stilton, but quite cautious in terms of any detail he's giving away. he has been speaking to publish president entre doot doot up. he says, nato is monitoring the situation. the allies, a closely consulting with each other and that it is important, he says, to establish the facts. first, more illuminating than those comments come from his immediate predecessor as secretary general of nato. and just for rascals who perhaps in his position now can afford to be a little more expensive. he said the russian missile attacks are barbarism and an attempt to terrorize civilian the civilian population. but crucially, he said a missile hitting nato is
12:39 am
a dangerous development. nato must rapidly assess this incident. it is a russian missile. if it is a russian missile, we must trigger article for he said what he's article for article. ready for allows for one member out of the 30, if they feel that their independence, territorial integrity or security are threatened to trigger article for which then triggers a consultation process. a form, a formal consultation process of all 30 members at that member's request. and to follow up on that word from the polish government spokesman suggesting that whilst at the same time raising the readiness of a few of our military units. the government, the spokesman said, is considering invoking article for and further to that polish media. suggesting that in the coming hours perhaps, or the early hours of tomorrow, conversations will happen between the published defense minister and the u. s.
12:40 am
secretary of defense also potentially conversations between the photos president and joe biden, the u. s. president. so poland, clearly consulting closely with its allies, but chiefly with the united states. and as i've said before, i think in this whole scenario, all eyes now really on poland because it will be for poland to decide essentially what happens next. turner, how. thank you very much indeed for all those clarifications. all right, wasn't jordan jones's lie from washington d. c. and understand that that conversation might be happening at the moment between the parish president and the and president button there are report saw that the u. s. president and the polish president are speaking at this hour. we don't have independent confirmation from the white house as of yet. there are also reports that the defense secretary lloyd austin is going to speak to his polish counterpart. and we're trying to get confirmation of that as well. what we do know
12:41 am
is that the national security advisor jake sullivan, did speak a short time ago with his polish counterpart and extensively that would be the precursor to a phone call between the countries to presidents. so a lot of contact is, are being made, but in terms of on the ground analysis, we don't know yet exactly what is happening. it is possible, and i'm speculating here that such assistance could be offered during a phone call both between the president and between the defense ministers. but again, that is just speculation. certainly we have seen in the past that the u. s. as willing to offer. it's good offices and its resources to help other countries in moments of apparent crisis. and so this certainly would rank as one of those, given the fact that poland has really been the staging ground for allies trying to provide assistance to ukraine in its war against russia. and would there be any
12:42 am
possibility of a moral and defense is being kind of provided bishop, which in originally the us and others were we were not to to provide you think that this is a moment when that might be considered? well, if the u. s. has been a making possible the provision of air missile defense systems are 2 while ukraine . but those have to be done under careful consideration in terms of the balance of military assets across a europe, a, across those nations that are members of nato. and there also has to be of recognition that the ukrainians are better trained on the equipment that was a devised during the soviet era than they are on equipment that has been a used by western military's. and so this is a very slow moving process, even though we have seen billions of dollars of worth of military assets
12:43 am
transferred to the ukrainians in order to carry out their fight against the russian military. but certainly would you expect that the government and keith would be asking for more defenses? certainly you would. but does this mean that things can get into ukrainians? hands any more quickly? that's just not realistic. things move very, very slowly when it comes to transferring military equipment from one government to another. western jordan, thank you very much indeed. on his way to massage reported to have landed in the village of dora avenue in southeast, in poland. not far from the border with ukraine. it's about 100 kilometers north of the ukrainian city of nev. if korean president of them is lensky, spoke a short time ago. wait, there, i give them a booty firing missiles at night. her territory is a russian attack on the click of security. this is a very significant escalation. we must act. yes,

12:56 am
as you might expect. of course, because if these were to be seen as russian missiles landing in poland, poland is a nato member later is often said that any attack, if it was to be seen as that would be seen as an attack on all nato members. we know that at this stage, we're not talking about an attack. we don't know whether these russian missiles still 70 questions in the air, and that's very much the theme you might save some of the messages that are coming out from some of the european capitals. a lot of a lot of caution we've heard, for example, from the german form is saying that my thoughts with poland, but we closely monitoring the situation. you know, those sentiments being echoed by the belgian prime minister, also condemning the attack saying replace the monitoring the situation referred to same from leaders in finland in estonia. emanuel mac, raul, the french president, is currently in bali with many of the world. leaders says that we need to wait to see exactly watson investigation will reveal what happens in poland. he's not even
