8:02 pm
been a very active day. all up and down the eastern front in this conflict in ukraine. but there is very little debate about where the major flashpoint is currently in the war in ukraine, and that is in buck moved the comments from the wagner chief. you have guinea, a prego gene. really lining up very squarely with what the government here and keith has been saying, the wagner chief saying that ukrainian troops aren't retreating, and the president vladimir zelinski saying that they will continue to fight for the place that he calls ukrainian fortress. he says that his forces will hold on as long as they can, but he has also said, seemingly preparing his country for bad news that may come from the front that things on the eastern front are getting more difficult and will continue to get more difficult in the days ahead, ukrainian forces say that they have killed a $140.00 to $200.00 wagner of fighters in 10 hours of fighting in
8:03 pm
recent days. saying that so called zombie soldiers, mercenaries working for wagner simply for walking wave after wave into machine gun fire. but they say that they are out numbered ukrainian forces are outnumbered by the sheer mass of fighters that russian forces are able to bring to bear to but more the city that remains under siege or russia says ukrainian missiles have had heavily congested civilian areas in a donia screech and it's unclear if any civilian casualties happened in not offensive. the battle on the eastern front line has been intensifying ukraine's president of the residents. he warned that russia is throwing more and more troops into battle to breakdown ukrainian defences. while the war in ukraine has led european nations to impose new restrictions on russian oral that has come into effect on sunday. so premium products like diesel and jet fuel will be kept at $100.00 a barrel or products that trade below the price of crude,
8:04 pm
including in $3.00, a lubricants will be kept at $45.00. western insurance and shipping companies will be banned from handling the products unless they were purchased at or below those limits. there are concerns, though the caps could lead to a rise in global diesel prices. the process has more from amsterdam. well, it is predicted that the impact of the embargo which is implemented today on oil products like diesel and the price cap will be higher than what's happened after the embargo and crude oil, which was implemented last december. many countries here in europe, we're fairly much depending on russian diesel. for example, for example, the german government has bought more than 600000 tons of diesel just in january to stock up for this possible embargo to be implemented. other european countries have done the same. this shows that they were very much still depending on this, russian oil product. germany, for example, around 13 percent. and it also means that they don't expect
8:05 pm
a huge price hike immediately because it is enough stock. they say here in europe, but what they are predicting is that in the next few months there could be higher prices. so the truck drivers of people who work with diesel, we have a real need for diesel, which is quite an important part of the economy here in europe, of course that there will be higher prices as well. and is also the sphere because a lot of refineries here in europe half closed down over the last couple of years because of climate reasons that they will need to go elsewhere to refine these oral products. and it could be going to asia to the middle east, maybe to china. so that means that there will be more higher prices because of all this. and also this is a serious fear that the could be shorter just in the next few months. something that the energy, minnesota saudi has pointed out that these embargoes will eventually lead to
8:06 pm
shortages. but that's something that here a lead us in a european union, they'll say won't be the case. they say we need to set a very sand, the very strong message to russia to make clear that it can profit from this war. and that's why this embargo, after long the bait within the european members, because some of them wanted the price kept that was going to be much low. and now it's decided on $100.00 for these oil products is high quality or products. so they decided they needed this embargo to send this message to russia. china has accused the united states of overreacting after washington shot down its balloon nearly a week after it entered american aerospace. the balloon was 1st spotted in fairbanks, alaska. on monday. by wednesday, it was seen near missoula, montana, the chinese balloon that floated over kansas city, missouri on friday. by saturday morning. it was seen in the skies over memphis, tennessee, before being shot down by us fighter jets off the coast of south carolina. later
8:07 pm
that evening. china insist that was a weather balloon, that straight off course. particle hain has more. a clear shot as it happened, a missile hit the high altitude balloon and it begins its descent in end 2 days of long debate about what to do about this massive air balloon suddenly saw something take off. again. i knew it was a missile and you can see the explosion. you should have shot that winning carts insane. instead of letting it travel all the way across, you thought that was just that. i think it's terrible that they let it get this far start with. and what i've heard, there's more and more of china claimed it was a weather balloon that was blown off course. president biden says he gave the order to shoot down last wednesday, decided without doing damage to anyone on the ground. and decided that the best
8:08 pm
time to do that would be we got over water within our, within 12 mile limit, successively took down. the pentagon says in f $22.00 fighter jet launched a single missile to bring the balloon down into us territorial waters. pentagon officials say now they're turning their attention to recovering the balloon. they think it's going to be a fairly simple operation. there already, several us navy and u. s. coast guard ships on the scene. they plan to use us navy divers at unmet submersible to bring it to the surface in the next few days. and then the u. s. will decide if they want to publicly and the debate offering proof of what this was . it's still an open debate because huge balloon was in fact following the air streams of the area and that it has a tractor of that. it is not loitering over montana, it was shot off the eastern seaboard. so at this juncture, this idea that this is somehow a spy ship, that was liberally said by china seems
8:09 pm
a little bit far fetched. but us analysts say the fact that they believe a similar balloon as travel in latin america makes this theory more likely. i did not believe that it was just a weather balloon loan. of course it would be quite a coincidence if we have this loon going into u. s. air space. while apparently there's another one crossing latin america a simultaneously infringing upon other countries here space. another strain in an already frayed relationship, which was supposed to take steps toward improvement on saturday. instead, taking a step back. particle haine al jazeera washington syrian refugees in garza have been protesting in front of a u. n. agency. they want officials to resume aid that was cut in 2017. most of them fled from syria when the revolution started in 2011 and they found refuge in gaza. sarah,
