10:03 pm
a bit more quiet. we certainly though, had a different picture this morning. we heard a needy, 5 very distinct explosions, or that we later found out were strikes at key infrastructure in the city according to local authority. some houses also damage. we're also getting more information about a strike on an apartment block in the city of denise pro. that's in central ukraine . terrible pictures are coming out of there. a whole residential apartment block pretty much reduced to rubble. emergency services have been frantically trying to find survivors. they've been pulling people out from the rubble. we know now that at least 5 people were killed and these 27 people injured, some of them very badly wounded and that includes some children. so very grim and bleak picture from denise for and those emergency surf service work is still continuing to work to see what they can do. the same thing in the v, this is something we've been seeing from russian forces over the past few months, is targeting of this kind of energy infrastructure to try and make
10:04 pm
a life as difficult as possible for ukrainians. and it is you, you're dealing with a lack of lighting, a lack of heating, sometimes hours, days on end. a people are not able to have access to things like internet and children need that for online a schooling people need it for communications are very difficult indeed. but of course, many people across ukraine say, look, we have to put up with this. this is what we have to deal with was we're in this situation, was our soldiers are out of the front or fighting russian forces. ukraine has refuted russian claims it has captured the eastern town of solid. our president northern miss lensky says his forces still fighting in a small salt mining town, which moscow wants to secure, to help it's offensive on nearby back. moot, shall stratford has more from outside soda or judging by the noise that we're hearing hair. the fighting is very much ongoing. we are suppose about 56 kilometers from solider,
10:05 pm
the military or warning us about going anywhere further down this road. we're hearing a lot of outgoing for what we understand is ukrainian artillery foreign over our heads toward solider to my right and tools back moot, which is down the road behind we we've seen incoming landing in fields to my left. what we have not seen though is any kind of large scale withdrawal of ukrainian forces. no kind of flat beds with tanks being pulled out. and there's very little traffic on this road. and indeed at the moment, and we have to be speaking to some soldiers that we've heard that we've met close to close to this area. they saying that the fighting seems to be most intense on western outskirts of solid. are they say that their men are still very much in a fight they're having lost, seemingly, you can hear that that's actually an outgoing either a mortar or an artillery canon firing to it from,
10:06 pm
from the left. so they saying that the fighting solid are, is very much on going there also saying though that what they describe was russian saboteurs. a, moving into a village to the west of solider also. so, as you can here, and as you can imagine, the situation is very tense here indeed, but no sign of any large scale withdrawal. now, yesterday, we spent the day with ukrainian special forces in the town of buck motes, which is south of solid. and very much, we understand the attention now of russian forces as they try and move to surround it. ah, another batch of classified documents has been found at the private of us president joe biden. that's according to the white house council. the 5 new to discovered pages, a 3rd batch of sensitive documents to be discovered to biden's home and one of his
10:07 pm
former office. a special council was appointed this week to investigate particular and his lie 1st in washington dc. but what do we know about the latest documents? well, what we know, excuse me. what we know is they, according to the special, the white house counsel's office to put out a statement. so basically where they search the president, tell them in wilmington, delaware, they found some classified documents in the garage and another one page in a storage area, a just, just next to the garage. what the council saying is the lawyers, the president's private lawyers who are going through this, they didn't have security clearance. so when they saw that marking, they closed the box, they shut the room and they just what no further. now the white house council says he has security clearance, so he went up thursday night up to wilmington, delaware, so that he could hand over those documents to the department of justice. he says in that box where they found that 1st document, they found 5 additional documents with classification markets. now,
10:08 pm
what we don't know is exactly how high the classification was in the us government . there is a confidential secret and then top secret top secret is described as if that got out it couldn't pose a grave danger to the country. we do know that in the office here in washington dc, we believe there were documents listed as top secret. we don't know how many we're thinking about in all. there was about 20 documents now 25. so what they said is they've had that over to the department of justice. as you mentioned, a special prosecutor is going to take a look at get those documents. next. what this does though, is it just keeps the story in the headlines for president biden, who'd like to move on. but this is really been any the only thing reporters, the white house briefing, and asking about every time there's the new announcement, it leads the news and the local newspapers. so it just shows that this is a story and a headache for the president, a political headache that possibly will be going away anytime soon. and how does
10:09 pm
that compare to the documents found in form, the president donald trump's and i think it's very important to point out that we're looking at a very different set of circumstances. so joe biden says in november when they were clean out his office and his lawyers where they found the documents that they immediately notify the national archives of the keepers of all of the presidential records, who then notified the justice department. now in the trunk case, it wasn't until a year after of round a year after he left office, that the national archives was notified by trump's lawyers that they had found the classification in 12 different boxes. so they sent that to the national archives, which gave it to the justice department. the justice department said, we think there's probably more donald trump said, didn't basically trump's lawyers that there aren't. but the justice department went ahead and got that very controversial search warrant of the president's residence in florida mar logo. and there they found $33.00 additional boxes that had
10:10 pm
documents with these classifications. and all, it was a loving 100 documents that the, that the confiscated, we do know in those documents, there were many that were labeled top secret. there are reports that he even had reports on one countries nuclear program. so this scale and scope of these 2 if an investigation very, very different, but now both been investigated by a special prosecutor. actually go ahead and thank you very much indeed. as if anti government protest is a gathering in tennessee that gets promised benjamin netanyahu, his plans to have a whole digital system. and he far right administration has unveiled sweeping changes to the country's legal system. the could we from the powers of the supreme court justices of hazel's checking people's freedom and democracy, pos, penetration is also being held in high fat and outside the president's residence in jerusalem. the man conjoined, decide now from 10 of even even the center of the scale and mitigate this sensation
10:11 pm
. while the organizers were hoping for about 50000 people, we don't know exactly how many people are here, but it certainly feels like it's a significant improvement on the numbers that they got last week and official figures that was about 30000 people. now, this protest movement began when the justice minister proposed changes to the supreme court, saying that it needed to roll back the power of the supreme court, including the power to overturn any parliamentary connected decisions that angered this sabrina book. or she angered a lot of different civil movements here. horrible. come together to protest that, but now it's getting wider. this is now becoming about human rights about minority rights protest. is it a worried that this far right government will bring in changes because they simply have the numbers mail to pass them in the connected the are going to affect human rights as well. so it's getting bigger than just the supreme court,
10:12 pm
although that's been the spark of this so far. now, a lot of people here are very angry toward the government, particularly prime minister benjamin netanyahu to calling him a criminal. they sang that he will do anything to keep power there. also, we've been hearing from the podium, which spoke about 5 and your bill is down that way from various different politicians from almost supreme court. judges open saying the same thing that this is now a rollback of israel's democracy, and it should be taken incredibly serious. so that's the kind of mood and number of people that we've seen enough to say it's been very rainy nights, but still people have come out in huge numbers. so it is a significant protest amc numbers like this in television for very long and is the government likely to listen? well this is this a question i've been putting to protest organizes to people here on the street. and what they're saying is the israel is
10:13 pm
a very fragile democracy at the moment is very fragile government. at the moment there been 5 elections in 4 years. the protesters here feel that if they get out the numbers, they can force another election soon. so it's not really about making the government listening about forcing another election. another election crisis by getting opposition parties together to try and vote this government out. what happened, like i say, 5 times in the last 4 years before elections or the protest as head are hoping to galvanize lots of people to come out into the streets. and then for that to spark a political crisis within the government and force another election. but lauren, this is just about, in fact this is only about israel and internal is ready politics about the palestinians, about the priest boys or anything like that. is riley's here, a very concerned that their own democracy is now under threatened. that's why they're out on the streets in my town. thank you very much indeed. to palestinians
