6:02 pm
where authorities have detained the head of the supreme court in a high level corruption probe. are you creating a piece of civil owed? and yes, you have was detained in connection with a bribe of nearly $3000000.00. the country's antique corrupts and watch dogs says it's expose what it called, large scale fell play up the courts. and it shared a photograph of trash to illustrate what it's called corruption at the highest levels of power. fission way is gonna be the best product we've achieved in the case that we're talking about. and the revelations we've made. mean this is the highest profile case. since the national empty corruption view of started, i can say this without exaggeration. it's the highest profile discovery correct. have 2 minutes. it's in the meanwhile, ukraine's middle teresa set itself down 18 russian missiles fired up the capital on monday nights. officials say the attacks were exceptional and involved cruise and
6:03 pm
ballistic missiles as well as drones. natasha butler has more from levine the sound of explosions of the keys, the night sky, the talk by flashes. city officials say ukrainian defense systems into set to thousands of russian phones and missiles in the early hours of tuesday. mobile phone footage, films by resident shows the intensity of the attack we heard at all, even our windows show, but thank god, there were no me. so i was in our area. i'm in the city. oh, my friends, my classmates and i, we heard it all. they were all worried and one of my classmates houses got hit. i think it's terrible. the circuits the attacks came just as of the ukrainian president of a low de zalinski returned by train from a trip to europe and did securing new weapons and support for an anticipated counter offensive. for them, we are returning home with a new military head. you are in more powerful weapons, close the front,
6:04 pm
more to perfection for our people. great, their political support was today, or no one knows when the counter offensive will begin. but you create new troops all preparing in the south as a country most all unit say they ready, but need more weapons. this is actually the most blue i noticed because of, with the need i'm a personal care is the most, especially with the counter offensive. because currently we use basic deep models which are not, i'm are, and i'm a car would provide safety for our service meant. that's what really matters. is this the know and it fully able to even is supposed to hope that this counter offensive will be successful since pushes the invasion, ukrainian forces have exceeded expectations. pressure is high, but the reality is the you believe that this post will be the last will when the will attach a bottle of ultra 0, the dave ukraine, which i'll speak to samuel romani has an associate fellow at the royal united
6:05 pm
services institute. joining us from parents, welcome to l, just 0. so we saw a large barrage a freshman massage overnight. and recently there has been talk up this ukrainian accounts are offensive. how, how decisive is that counselor offensive going to be? so as long as he is not willing to put a start date on the calendar events or views as he needs a bit more time. but i think that there's a lot of optimism into yeah, that it could be quite the size of the where any is already in gauging or what the, what the cost shaping operations, which means the targeting emission depos logistical sides of the military targets that would help them back in advance further, it looks as if they're already moving into directions. is that bridge and cruise on those? the parts are done best. right? but when the president says, but more time is needed, what are, what are the calculations there? what's the basic not on as well. i think it's also to create a bit of element of unpredictability. right? like you over the summer for example, ukrainians. i mean, it looked like that they were advancing on cruise on and putting all the resources there. and then they caught the russians off guard undefended in car key to the
6:06 pm
russian state. media and russian telegram channels are really. gov is paying the behavior offensive as already got. so i think that it's a bit of psychological operations for me to create a bit of qatar programming to throw the russians. i had to make them by mr. south. also i think the granny is, are holding out for some more sophisticated weapon. right. so it's very encouraging to see france that but actually consider supplying long range this house. you can have the big target obviously do you currently is want or the f? 16. yes. yeah. so from a military standpoint, and as those western countries just pledge more and more and more military aides to ukraine. and what's your assessment of, of where the, for the war war will lead to next? so i think, uh, the russian defensive capabilities are effectively been blunted. it seems as if even on the flanks of boxes, they're unable to defend themselves. and the wagner group that is engaging and urban combat over there in a way that's pretty disjointed and actually at odds with the russian defense minister. so it looks as it rushes now firmly on the defense that they've got
6:07 pm
a $150000.00 troops. the board of education station is that bridge and cars on there remains to be seeing how much manpower you can have at how much they can leverage their technology. and also, when critical equipment will arrive, the river tank spread arrive in 10 weeks. that's an important step forward and hopefully for the ukrainians more equipment will arrive soon. let me ask you about some, another development, and that's that you created, authorities have detained the head of the supreme court and not high level corruption prove how significance is this development of what i think is crazy. that again, i think it does. lensky is really emphasized that he, ever since the start of his presence, the 2019 of these commitment to we do that. we do have corruption, wherever he finds that he's targeted sometimes, officials and that all of these things have been close to russia. likely to remember david, chuck and others, but he doesn't want to show that he's only targeting political opponents. he also wants to show these targeting people within his apparatus or are corrupt as well. so that's why he went after the, when the defense ministry, when that ability go through procurement scheme, alexi ready to call, the defense minister almost have to resign and now they're going after the supreme court in the same way. so i think it's just
6:08 pm
a way for zalinski to show these committed to fighting corruption, ukraine, whether it be in institutions that are favorable to him or whether it be his adverse areas at home. all right, thank you so much, samuel romani for speaking to us from parents. will south africa's president 0 or on the 1st says, but 6 african countries will send a peace mission to ukraine and russia as soon as possible. he says that blood reputed and blood america lensky, have agreed to the meetings, and the group include center, goal, uganda and egypt, as well as south africa. the announcement came a day off to run. the photo said that south africa had been under extraordinary pressure to pick sides in the conflict. on european leaders are meeting an iceland to show their support for ukraine. it's the 4th summit of the council of europe since it was found that after world war 2, the 2 day gathering in reykjavik would focus on ways to hold russia accountable for its war and ukraine. the organization expelled russia last year after it invaded

6:15 pm
happening there could happen here. driving up here, we could see plumes of smoke rising all along the horizon and different areas on the sidney side of the border. if we were to start walking, we'd be on the other side of the border into done in about 10 minutes. when we got here, the people that had fled, those villages told us that those were their homes on fire. and if they still have people there. chad army garrisoned additional troops at audrey and the pilots broke out into the one local leader said in chad, there was a soldier under every tree a warning to or into groups on the other side of the border to monetary and 4 doors remain open. but the military is on high alert. on the, uh uh, you know, part of the applicant. there is an african proverb that says if your neighborhood is on fire, you must prepare yourself. so yours doesn't catch fire too. you will see the coffee on the refugees should feel at home here. he says the cross border attacks in the
6:16 pm
chat have happened in the past. all of the good that are built up areas offer some protection villages would be as vulnerable as those in the student east side. we'll see about how much family lives in chad, but her farm is in. so we don't. she says it's been occupied by raiders for son and husband are stuck, their name was adam. we just need help bring us security. we need security to remain here with us. yesterday, there was also smoking a lot of gunfire. we here just all day. we're afraid all day because the smoke is so close. we can see it. a tier the lives of sudanese inch headings straddle the imaginary lines that divide their countries. they share the same space, the same vulnerabilities as the newly exiled who can only look back at home were loved ones are left behind. perhaps yet, but aware of a sobering statistic. most refugees who come here from who don't never go back.
6:17 pm
st bus drive l g 01 dollar eastern chad. we're not going to speak to you as manager . rafe is. the executive director of education cannot wait and was recently in charge where yes, mean you were on a 5 day visit there you witnessed firsthand, the situation of refugees were fleeing through don. you're joining us from london to discuss thanks for being with us. of course. so even before that, so don conflict, the refugees as well as their host charge faced a whole host of challenges when it came to education. tell us what you saw on your visit. well, we went to is from child down to a bottle, which is the reception area or assessment where their references arrive, where they come out of the 4th and 5th tombstones. and i've been doing this for, for 3 decades. is one of the worst things that i have seen when they arrive on the wells that were for 2000 refugees. the charleston series. bunch of stuff,
6:18 pm
numbers that those in 2 days at the extra number to the estimate the by you and they sure are. is that 6 the house and references of home? 70 percent? actually in school age. right. i have $0.12 as long. so what are the most immediate priorities? i know the education cannot wait, has announced a, a $3000000.00 grant during that mission to charge what a priority is going forward. i mean, clearly clearly when you're in publishing of $4.00 to $7.00 degrees water is the 1st thing that everyone off for and you and they charged me on past the fantastic jump on the ground and providing water in providing they knew the necessities uh, having been there spoken with the references and their children there on warning for education. why? because education also and pays mental health and psychosocial sorrows,
6:19 pm
walker and so on to change from um, an infrastructure and protection for this issue in the, in that sense and, and, and the whole for the future. because when they cross the border by nice, that's both mentioned on there and have lived through the power of enjoying a and the child. and she has some dangers in before they need help. and then it protects from the education on passive spots. so when you say that 70 percent of pre registered refugees are children, that is a huge. does this take a right there, but what's at stake for them if they're not able to have access to safe and protective learning environment? because also we know that child's the sort of environments when it comes to when it's come to learning to education system itself is overstretched. isn't that? yeah, absolutely, i'm them education and all the ways has worked with doing this for the past 3 years
6:20 pm

6:21 pm
and it goes down. and as the future we'd be absolutely hopeless. your panels and pot or a rest budget chart was enough. so if you don't give them the tools to empower them, and i want to say that the day before bill went to the border area, we did visited their references size, whereas the diesel clubs are 4 in 20042005. right? it's a 1000 years ago and they received that location and they are today strong to educate . so as opposed to those who are arriving at cost weeks. okay, we'll leave it there. thanks you so much money science science. yes sir. thank you so much for everything. so well not from london. thank you. bunch of more ahead on the, i'll just, the renters are including the was yours problem and begins and impeachment, trial of president law. so as its political crisis comes to ahead of a very simple imperative, prince of this hospital in haiti's capital violence and then non functioning
