unpleasant wake up call for care of this morning. about 3 and a half hours ago, the, the air raid sirens camera came on now after vessel didn't hear those. what i did here was half an hour later, an enormous explosion that sir reverberated around the city center at it got me out of bed, looking out the window, couldn't see anything. but what we know is that it was just one of several drones that came in to the city. i think the success rate has been pretty much a 100 percent in, in shooting those down. so what we think is that the drone explosion that i heard was a drone being shot out of the sky and coming down and detonating on the ground, but not causing a huge amount of damage. there has been a some pictures that i have seen of smoke coming from an administrative building not see far away from here, just a cluster or so away. and some other damage to residential buildings on the

outskirts of the city. also pictures that are seen of debris on the floor, a bit of a, a, one of these, a rainy and drones. the showerheads are with russian writing on it, saying zachary is an hours that means for and reason is the location of one of the russian air bases are that there were explosions that are in the last week or so. and has me, could officially confirmed by the ukrainians, but the russians have said that those were ukrainian drones strikes on these military airfields military officials of the russians have been using to send up their, their big long range bombers and hit ukraine repeatedly with cruise missiles. yet not a pleasant morning i have seen in here today. indeed, while speaking of unpleasant when i checked it just a few minutes ago or it was what minus 4 degrees celsius and james, how is everyone there holding up with all the power shortages?

well as tough, i mean that is this, the situation is gradually being regulated and improve. so there is more stable power now. but still these regular blackouts which, you know, a part of the day, you kind of organize your day around them. if you know they're coming a lot of my schedule, so you know that you can have power from say 10 in the morning to mid day. so that's what he do. will you're charging and her and, and make sure that you take a shower and you can use the power to, to its best advantage. but, you know, apart from that, most people are living in dark coals or possibly damp apartments or houses. it's not a fun way to live at all, but i would say that sir merrill is not being dented by this. everyone has determined vega to carry on their asking of course the ukrainians for help from outside fraud or the the means to repair the energy grid and also the means to defend the cities from further attacks. air defenses is one of these key messages

that you're hearing from that ukraine in officials. that's what we need. and the recent reports from america suggest that this patriots air defense system are which the ukrainians have been calling for. for some time looks to be imminent. it's not been confirmed yet, but looks to be imminent. man, it's not a one size fits all solution. air defense. you need to have lead approaches, different platforms, different systems for different targets. and drones, after say, patron is not particularly a debt for it's more of a bigger targets, like cruise missiles and, and ballistic missiles, something like a, a gepford, which is a, a german system big cannon's on it that route rapid fire. that's better for taking down drones, but yeah, you need lots of different types of air defense to attack lot, lots of different types of targets. gateway challenge. they're on the ground for us in a very jolly cave. thanks so much for moving on and peruse. government has expanded a state of emergency there as protests continue to spread across the country,

but has gone on to when to elections. his rival city of any rebecca is a former prime minister himself who led to cruise in 1987 while at spring in erotic eroni. dina, she is a human rights activist and also the executive director of the trans up trans affirmative action guilt. she joins us now from the zuba router. you polls close just over an hour ago. i believe. i'll start by asking you how you feel they went, was it free and fair rubbish. i'm sorry, i didn't hear that if you could just repeat the question for me please. sure router i was just asking you if you feel that the pause have been free and fair so far. oh well, um a lot of things had been happening under wraps and i know that they are do a full transparency, a bit of apologize. i just returned for the cooling stations and there are people here and just to the sick to the whole experience long. but i,

a need to, of course, make certain concessions within the middle within the military institution. i'm. i'm this, of course sam has assisted us in. i'm with the lobbying, the continuous law being are well within the motor movements, but i'm as per the powers i that it, that exist abdel very you a referral mechanism where we can continue to have his conversations. ah, well of course that it has been now. our pressures applied on how much we can actually be voicing our opinions, herb, but it, it's, it's nothing new that a civil society movement has continued to express your concern at all. i understand in the past race issues have been very high up on the agenda for voters, but this elections obviously taking place after a 2 year pandemic that's had huge impacts on travel and tourism fie's,

bread and butter. has that changed? how people are thinking about where they vote, i guess so in part a lot of the issues a have literally boiled down to of a matter of safety and security. and of course, the constant need for a change, as well as a change. i mean, i'm the need for new thoughts, new new were new policies that are burst by younger, younger politicians or fresh minds. this regiment has been around for over 16 years . so that's where most of the concern comes from. and i feel that that's what drives people to the politicians, even though the latest doctors that have come out and have been for example, at 4 p. m. ipg time. com. there was an announcement so that there was a more than 40000 people that have yet to vote. i guess this is because of certain

frustrations. ah, but at the why as those while within the babies with a while learned mines who are constantly in touch with the political environment and of course said and in a sit in movements within the, within the political space have made the move to go and vote and with constantly voiced this on social media platforms, a need for people to make a change, and the one we have could make a changes by it. i voted, yeah and, and we'll continue watching the results of those elections very closely here on out of the or rat your, any dinner that human rights activists. thing to us from. see that in fiji. thanks in a tracking. thank you for having me. now the un says that iran is stepping up deportations of afghan children who have left their homes to find what hundreds are dropped at the board and harass in western afghanistan every month. but the di, economic situation is pushing even more to leave as stephanie data reports. many of

is to stay in their country. milan was they should study and work hard here to help build their country. and my request from the taliban is to create conditions for people to work out and provide employment for young people so they can stay here. but conditions in afghanistan are pushing more and more people to search for a better life abroad since the taliban to power last year. foreign funds of dried up and it's become increasingly difficult to make ends meet. according to the un, the number of minors leaving afghanistan has almost doubled compared to last year. and i think this an indication of the severity of visitors. i mean for child support in such a situation to make a decision to live the school and to cross over 3 around together, jovan feels afford the family. i think that's a very good description. what violence situation of god. his son is like, and this is not just one guess, all the cases that ah, children crossing because of the gutted government situation. they will be given
