ah, ukraine locks 365 days of war with tributes to the thousands of people who have lost their lives. ah, i don't know about this, and this is all 0 live from bill hobb also coming up. we're gonna report from moscow where russian businesses, that adjusting to western sanctions, imposed over the war and how keeps natural has become a symbol of resilience, doubling up as a city wide bomb shelter. also had a powerful winter storm sweeps across for us. hundreds of thousands of homes don't have any power

it's been one year since russia launched this invasion of ukraine leading to the largest conflict in europe since world war 2. president vladimir zelinski, his latter commemoration service on the capital kings ceremonies, and also being held in other cities across ukraine. thousands of people have been killed, millions of been forced from their homes. yup. which i shall warm him. i want to say he, i am proud of you. of course, we are all, every one of us. we are all proud of you and let this pride go through the streets and the trenches. let you let this pride go through the squares and the cities might done only let this pride go through hearts and countries. the dead. let this fried speak everywhere. long live you kramer lives. you'll do it in a funny because johnny has live now from keith adrian, one year into the war, has been a year of bombardment and fear for the people of kieffer. what does it feel like to be there?

you could be forgiven for thinking that everything here in keith is completely normal shop. so openness, the usual morning and evening traffic rush hour bars and restaurants are doing good business front. take a closer look and you realize that things are far from normal. this is a city of war. this occur few in place from 10 o'clock at night. people are wandering around in military fatigues, their tank traps on the side of the road. and of course, you'll must daily air raid sirens. then you begin to realize that people are missing. it's not as busy as it should be. some shops are still closed because there aren't enough staff to work to keep them in business son's daughters. brothers, sisters, father's mothers are missing because they've either fled ukraine or they're on the front line and the worry etched on the faces of those who remain here going about that business is obvious. joining me now is ukrainian mp sophia shadonna, felina,

i'm sorry for you as well as big m p, a volunteer ukrainian army. how important all volunteer. speaking of those people who are, who are not here, who are missing right now that because they're fighting for their country, how important to all volunteers to the ukranian war effort festival. if i can, i would like to think every one who raises the don't make off ukraine and who cares about the situation now a country and for all that support bows. so in any area that we get for our ukrainian people, it's not about volunteers. i might say that into southern 14, the volunteers for the 1st few months of the most of the invasion on the 20th of february, 2014. well, the main strengths and the main framework for ukrainian state to survive till they've got the new elected president in may, june of 2014. the volunteers were like a substitute for the country because they were managing all the process, starting from the communications and continuing with all the necessary support for

ukrainian army. unfortunately, in february to southern 22, we had to do the same thing. first of all, starting to supply our army would, bulletproof casks and west that were missing in ukraine, as ukrainian authorities were not ready for the moscow invasion to ukraine. nowadays on we have on the one point a very big state supplies for the military. on the other hand, we are really grateful for all our international partners. but unfortunately, there is a great lack of different things and the volunteers on duty and they are doing their things every day or so. how do you, mary, your work as a volunteer with of the day job? you're gonna be a, you know, i was, i am actually, and i wasn't you southern 14, the associate professor of international relations and diplomatic service department. and all my students and all our professors were involved into volunteer

work in ukraine. we had such a phenomenon that there is no, like a position of the volunteer or the status of the volunteer. if you see that there is some job to be done, the supplies should be found and brought to the front line. the majority of people just stand and do this and do their best to fund raise money to look to search everywhere for the necessary equipment. and the most important thing is how to bring it to the front line, where no post office is working. and for me, i'm already the member of parliament for 3 and a half years, and everywhere i say, for so full till the end of 4, till a ukrainian victory. i'm 1st of all the volunteer and in my daily job in the parliament, it helps me with understanding was the laws and bills and all the processes that are going on. because we know for sure what is on a front like what is needed, what the procedures are not working. and then we are trying to implement that on the level of the ledges. we were talking just a moment or 2 ago i was about how she feels. it's

a city of war. how different is keith now to how it was a year ago before the war. again. we've been here in k, when the invasion, full scale invasion started. and we've been here all the time off to that as i'll rush into other cities to get some more supplies specially for wasn't ukraine cities and to bring them here or for the run on the front line. these days gave was very of tea and it was very harsh atmosphere. we didn't know what can happen any moment. we did not know where the rocket will place. actually no one knows exactly even right now. but now ukrainians, ah, we may say a bit adjusted and we have an enormous face in the armed forces of ukraine. they are real here is for ukrainians. and the generals allusion a was all his people. i did the great job trying to protect not only ukraine, but to still the put in aggressions which we believe may go further in case it's

not stopped in ukraine. i was talking about the worry that you see it on people's faces because of course, their loved ones. many of their loved ones are away facing on the front line. i mean, all people afraid though is what is worried or we angry. i would say that it's more, we are afraid what we understand, that if we're afraid on step back, we will be the next wants to be killed by put in for jim. we are angry and we are afraid. so we are getting more active. we are trying to do much more. for example, my husband is on the front light. he was fighting for 5 years since 2014. and on the 1st days of this full scale invasion, once again though, being partly disabled person because of wounds sit in the previous time, he went to the front line. i already lost a lot of my friends. he lost a lot of his brothers any of the army, but we know that, do you have to go on? this is not a fight against something with that is not a fight that ukraine will,

will get some preferences from. we lose too many people. it's not a preference we are fighting for our will. civility to be a life for our children for our future. unfortunately, i say this will ukrainians as well for the people in all the world. we do not know history work very well. if we knew enough our history here in ukraine, none will have a doubt that put in and the moscow federation of the terrorist country, and that a lot of killers there who have a great feeling of love because they kill people. and we have to stop at right now, and now we have just go on. so fear many thanks. indeed, self of being with us here on al jazeera really appreciate that sir. sophia of felina, ukrainian m. p. vega, rob, that's the view from cleared funnel. adrian, thank you very much for joining funding. interpreters from keith. while this is what people in moscow has been saying, as russia enters its 2nd year at war as

a dynamic, which to my expectations, i want this to be over soon as possible. of course, we're waiting for rush to win in the special military operation. the whole world against us. nato countries are fighting us through ukraine, supplying them with equipment. and then there with the nazis were looking for to winning this year and hopefully the sooner the better for this to end right now. but can yes, no broken law is of course bad. but this year has shown that no other decision could have been taken away and that we are defending our independence is freedom, a chance for the future, the future of our children. therefore, we want victory. so which is which to mirror which i really want piece. i really wanted all to end as soon as possible, too many victims marley speaking and materially, we pensioners feel at all. well, the summer, bon jovi, johnny is not from moscow. we heard, there are some of those people that these are looking for this. hopeful that there will be a piece at some point professionally soon. but of course russia is facing sanctions

on for companies and for individuals as well. it's also seen in international businesses that have been pulling out of russia. how are russia's russians feeling about the impact this is having on their lives? but by and large, when you speak to people on the streets, this is what they will tell you that they are behind their government. they would like to see peace in on their borders and their soldiers to come home. but at the cost of russia winning this war, but you have to also realize that if they had an opposing view to that they would not be able to say it out in the street. they won't be able to protest, they would be facing serious criminal punishment. if they were allowed to do that, but having said that by and large people we've met in the last few weeks here in moscow. they have now kind of resonated to get the message from their leadership. that this was an existential board. the country had to go to war because of not just fighting ukraine, but a proxy alliance of breast and powers which were,

according to their view, subjugate them, and cause a threat to russian security. this is what the leader has been saying has been, but in the last year, you've seen a number of people leaving this country as well, who did not agree. you've also seen businesses live in this country as well, but in the russian capital, life goes on. one man's prices has been and the demands opportunity. and the businesses who are left are now owned by russians. this mosque, which 3 is a standard 1.5 liter family car. but it comes of the production line of what used to be a rental production plant. when the french car manufacturer left russia last year, it brought off $2300000000.00 worth of assets and sold. it's russian subsidiary for a symbolic when europe. it has a buyback option in a few years if thank has been lifted. but for now, the 45000 workers who produce nearly a 3rd of russia's car market remain employed. and it seems one company,

sanctions crisis was another opportunity. what's the threesome go home upon your own produce? in 2023. we plan to produce $50000.00 vehicles. $10000.00 will be electric. we've already started developing our own electric platform. by the end of 2025. we plan to produce a fully electric car of our own design. we plan to localize all components in moscow. fast food chains and cafes which closed operations have also been acquired by russian business people. so mcdonald is now of the touch and starbuck is star, coffee and russia. zeta. the woods were than 11000 sanctions have been imposed during the system. they assumed that events were unfolding a catastrophic way, rushes exports go to 0. russia would fall into complete blockades. the financial system will collapse, however, they will run on. these countries have either impose restrictions back sanctions, or opposed russia. invasion of ukraine are the ones in green, either seen as russia allies or have

a nucleus done. these include south american reveal and venezuela plus resource rich nations including iraq, molly and dawn, and ages, powerhouses, including india and china. this is the classical group showcasing its weapons in the united arab emirates. it's one of many countries that refused to be involved in sanctions against russia. the russian manufacturer it produces about 95 percent of all small arms in the country and exports weapons to more than $27.00 others fraction drug me because if turned to india farm industry for supplies after being blocked by the rest. and he has also become a major oil export market for russia. but china dwarf them all with an estimated $200000000000.00 in trade forecasts with russia by next year. despite its allies, help functions against russia have led to a drop in exports of whitening fiscal deficit and businesses struggling to find cash after banking restrictions. when you're on moscow has proved an old military

thing. russia is never as strong as you fear, but russia is also never as weak as you hope. some of the job of era must be. well, the u. s. is mocking the anniversary, the invasion with new sanctions against russia and its allies. they target banks and the military industry of white us corresponding kimberly hall that has more there have been sanctions already and well, the us feels that this is certainly in some forms incapacitate and vladimir putin's ability to wage war. it hasn't gone far enough because what we've seen is the ability of russia to forge partnerships with other countries in order to keep the war machine going. and so the goal of these latest round of sanctions put in place by the united states and coordination with other g 7 nations is to see that that ability to wage war is completely incapacitated. so what do these latest sanctions

look like? well, and they're going to be targeted against $200.00 individuals and entities, both russian individuals, as well as the individuals across europe who are in support of russian individuals and businesses. we also know that there will be a dozen russian financial institutions that will be targeted. namely, tied to russia's defense and tech industry, namely in the mining as well as metal sector. we also know that the united states is going to restrict any exports to russia, as well as raised tariffs on russian products here in the united states. now again, the goal of all of this is to completely cut off russia from the global economy. something that really was the goal initially with the initial rounds of sanctions. but once again, russia was able to kind of circumvent that. so this is really an attempt to incapacitate russia's ability to raise and finance it's war machine still had on all the 0. we're going to hear from us, think survivors in to kia who say they're too scared to go home,

even though their buildings have been declared safe. ah. hello, we got yet most now with the forecast for japan over the next couple of days. so wet weather, windy weather, and wintry weather, just piling in from west to east. this weather system here that will pull out of the way. winds bearing route to move north wesley direction on that sir. colder air, coming in over the rosy, warm waters, throwing in some more. c, a face down to western areas of honshu, northern parts of japan, easing across into okada. la celsius serv. well take you over the met cabinet. i similar pictures you go on into sunday behind. that's not bad at all. i celsius in so double figures therefore, where beijing dry, fine and sunny across a good part of china, maybe one or 2 showers. they're still looking around taiwan,
