backward region are real heroes. and we can go now to hold up the hamid who is live for us in key. honda, let's start with was the lang ski had to say about bach, boo town. bad are things there and what is the significance of the russians do take full control of it? well, it isn't a very difficult situation at dom. busy at the moment for de ukrainian forces, and president zalinski said that lately, but he has said that several times in the past weeks. now whereas the understand the situation now is that the russian forces lead actually by the wagner's group, which is a part of military as sort of a private army, has been pushing from the north, the south and east of but who de russia ukrainian forces still holding ground even those precarious ground in the western part of that city. now it will be

significant if indeed the russians take control of the who'd be on several levels. busy a because it will give the russians a military victory that it hasn't had in a very long time. if you remember, over the past 6 months, that the russians have actually pulled out of the north east of the country into hockey region, they were also pushed east in the have sun region in the south of the country by ukrainian forces. and they have been trying to inch and gain more territory into dumbass, specifically in the don't yet region, so back moot would give russia a, a victory if it also give russia a way a paved away really a road to reach nearby from my tours and love yann's and pushed ukrainians further away. now the situation is still not there yet. the president has warned that it

could happen. but at the moment, as we understand that ukrainian forces are trying to hold as much as they can in the western part and all that has been another plea from presidency lensky to the west for more support and defending the skies. is absolutely that has been actually the mantra, president zalinski ever since the russian invasion started in february 2022 now do it's the situation is not the same anymore for the credit is because i have ever bust air defense system. they have a. busy bus air to vain system that have been pledged more a to by president by than when he was here and gave a couple of days ago, but what the ukrainians are looking for. a f, 16 jet fighters. presently lensky has been pleading with ne to powers to obtain those native powers are still on defense. about that. he prison zaleski says it's important to be able to cause some damage on russian positions. ended on bus area

and the area occupied by the rushes and the separate is but i think western powers a bit worried about about the about it is they think that they probably worried that those f sixteens could be used in cross border attacks inside russia. and that would be a major escalation in this war at the moment the ukrainians are getting tags. they're getting. the leopard tags from the germans that get the challengers from the air from the u. k. and the abram tanks from the americas. they have a very robust air defenses, them, but it remains the biggest weakness for the ukranian army. because as we have seen over and over again, russia does try to strike ukraine deep into the western part of the country. as strikes happened on quite a regular basis, even though more and more difficult for russia because of their strong defense system that the ukrainians now own. okay,

thank you for that update on the about how me that 1st live in keith. while the kremlin says it will not resume participation in the new star nuclear weapons, tracy, until the us listen to its demands, president vladimir putin announced he was leaving the agreement and a speech last week. the russian defense ministry is also keys, washington of planning a. so called provocation in ukraine using toxic chemicals. meanwhile, we're hearing reports in local russian media that b s. space about st. petersburg was briefly closed due to an on identified object that speak to salma ben today who's in the russian captain. let's start with this. this situation regarding the space, what are you hearing about what happens when it's not clear what happened, but we did get to boards that the airspace over st. petersburg airport was closed

for at least an hour or so. but now reports from russian media indicate that it has been reopened. it's one of many incidents that have been seen over russian territories this morning. the russian defense ministry has reported about some drones that are shot down over the territory. they have been reports of a cyber attack against a local radio in crimea, which announced that there were people had to go to emergency shelters, and eric sirens will ring soon and that turned out to be false news as well. so there seems to be a lot that is happening in the cyber space, so to speak, where multiple number of threats have been reported. and as you mentioned, this is coming as the ministry of defense for the 1st time has actually detailed a plan of how allegedly chemical weapons have been brought into ukraine in near the done yes creature. and this is where intense fighting has been taking place for the

last few months. they administer defense that can be identified. the number of bull gave the type of chemicals it says could be used and which will be a violation off the organization of the prohibition of chemical weapons treaties. so it is all happening this morning in russia. this seems to be more alarm bells ringing the actual fighting. and as you mentioned, baffled remains the, the, the tip of where the intensity of the fighting is where the russian forces are claiming that they've intensified and fortified their positions in the north and south. and the ukrainians have still digging in and when it comes to the new start nuclear weapons, tracy with the u. s. it appears the president putin sticking to his promise that he made last week that he is going to leave that treaty. when you heard the statement from his books and which is essentially reiterates what for president vladimir putin said in a state of the nation address that the united states is allegedly preparing for

a test of a nuclear weapon. and russian needs to be prepared as well. in the last few days, he said that he does not see united states as the only participant in the start treaty, because now russia is facing a threat from multi dimensions. and it has to see the nuclear capabilities, the whole need to alliance as one. and that is perhaps what it wants to talk to the united states about and it is suspending its treaty. so we are heading more on that on these lines of the narrative that the russian government has established that it is fighting an alliance of the west. and it does face nuclear threats as well. thank you for that sum of enjoy a that for us from moscow. and israeli american has been shot dead near the city of jericho. in the occupied was bank killing comes as israel deployed, hundreds of additional soldiers, often escalation and violence on sunday. to israeli suffolk was shot dead near the
