2:08 pm
but said they actually were patriots of the country. and they would continue financing for the country and continue financing a corruption, light and bureaucracy in this country. according to progression, a layer on administer showing good how to write and the russians say to a rust on, don't to possibly carry out the information to destroy devolves and in group and beyond forces the russian on forces used helicopters, so that's and gun is to destroy wagner, so now progression is ready to find mike, while the administrative defense denied all the accusations. and we've also been gathering some reactions here. and the, the foreign ministry spokeswoman said that some kind of unity within the country is needed for all of us as, as well. as for my present to me trim advantage also said the same that unity is needed and what pre goshen is doing a basically kind of dakota publication. also there is
2:09 pm
a new form of expression of loyalty to religion in prison and the russian armed forces one to stand that officials and the social networks rise. ringback the name and name of the organization with the was with the was we all with the president in striving? the supported to present pretty soon? um, well some, some other devices. excuse me. some other developments uh um, telegram channels associated with the wagner group claims that they were clashes with the ministry of defense in the bar owners region. and the ministry correspondents were about were reported about the work of aviation, that alone be and for highway. but we can't very find those reports actually, uh, the investigator, the investigative community, it has launched a criminal case against progression and b, f as b appeals to the finances of the wagner group and push them to detain progression.
2:10 pm
so now on the head of the dog and the code on his supposed is to join the ranks of his ministry company and sold house, the k o z has he put in the countries saying that that was not a military period. that was a match of justice on the other. it's interesting what you said earlier, because we understand that security has already been the step tough across areas in russia to oh, that's right. so on the terrace measures that have been that have been introduced here in russia and in most in particular, and as well as in some russia, in some of the russian regions. we know that the police now control rows around mosca, as well as in moscow, several find to chance was supposed to in the design region. a huge traffic drum is not reported on the full don't highway and there will stop and we're wrong. there's regions, hundreds of people have that have been started that since friday evening. there are also reports about um and vehicles on the roads of those regions. and some,
2:11 pm
some other um, it's ministry personnel carriers we're seeing on the streets of most go. but to generally people say them to campus, so it looks pretty calm at the moment. so security measures, i've been tightened in mosca and i will also include the most important facilities here. all of them have been taken out of control and protection, and they're also fools at all the public activities have been cancelled, and problems at schools and other then use have been postponed for at least a week. okay, with those updates. so you have thank you. well, joining us now from don't yet is uh, the hash them out a what details do you have about what's happening in real stuff on don't as well. so there's a sensor off of these uh, operations since early morning, and uh,
2:12 pm
according to the latest reports from the uh, state television report uh, posted a video on saturday graham saying that the bank was here in the city uh for a store of our but i didn't give details also. uh, there were reports from ross stove that to the wagner of fights. so as our leading mines and cosigns mines across the city. now what's key of and what's so officially announce is that roads from an inter restore was mostly blocked. the i'm for, as that you, yes, that is witnessing very high traffic on it. also from here, from doing yet to restore the board. those are the close. however, of the situation over here seems to be calm over a case in doing yes. well, we can hear around a lot of uh, bombings, uh, bombardment and uh, as uh, the ministry of defense was saying, uh since yesterday. that's the situation in russia is uh, a giving that kind of,
2:13 pm
uh, unfortunately to the ukraine and forces to start a kind of a account total offensive in bo fluids. and this is kind of changing not we can hear a lot of um, sounds maybe its anti aircraft or maybe uh, option that he, we don't know. so uh, this is going to change the situation on the frontlines because now from a situation where there was a wagner group. so i think and by me with that fighting before to install it on helping them that option or thought is in these that docs. now the fucking a group is in the middle of this way. busy with an award on your guinea pig, gordon is, is emerging from being the closest all eye of the president to the enemy of the state. and this is rice, sal changing the whole equation. sorry, thank you for that's update. while there's been no pause in rushes offensive in ukraine, and that's cost lots of during the whole in keys in china. how is this box and
2:14 pm
developments being viewed by the authorities that so we're getting some political comments coming from the leadership here and ukraine at little dom is lensky on a legacy telegram post that was devoted mostly to decrying the tax by russia in the early hours missile strikes on targets across the country, including here with damage was closed in keys, went on to say that russia's weakness is all this pointing of these events. and along the rush, it keeps its troops, messengers on our land, the more chaos pain and problems it will have to face later. dimitri qu labor, the foreign minister has put out a coal to ukraine's western allies, saying to those who thought that russia was too strong to lose. look at what's happening now at calling upon them to give you credit the weaponry more weaponry and the precise weaponry. the deed needs,
2:15 pm
but perhaps the most revealing bit of commentary comes from the kind of opponent part of the he's a senior advisor to below him. is that on ski? and we've had lots of common types of suggesting that whatever happens next in russia will happen quickly. that appears to be the view inside the presidency as well. the next 48 hours was devoted to access will determine what he describes as the new state is in russia, either a fully fledged civil war or a contractual transition of power, or a temporary rest buy. and he says before the next stage of the full uprooting. and i think what you can read into that is that inside the presidential administration here in key, they will be looking at these events and seeing in them one at least a potential scenario that they've been looking at. absent dissipating since the very early stages of the war and something that could be a game changer in terms of the outcome of the war. the idea of a splits between the lead feuds between different minute tree functions that lead to some form of confrontation or civil war. the weakens, the kremlin,
2:16 pm
increasingly weakens the image of president putin as an old, powerful, unchallenged lead. and therefore, leads to so, and so they've changed calculus about the outcome of the war. so i think that's probably the lens and the perspective with which they're leaving events. now, internally, you mentioned weaponry that and with all of the assess, don't forget that overnight strikes of still continuing on oh yes, very much so and, and this is very much again, a feature of life here in ukraine overnight miss all the tax. i'm 51 missiles we're told by the force with 5 by russia at targets across the country. most were brought down by defense is some hit targets in places like a how to use and elsewhere. but here in chief, it was folding debris that did the damage and did quite a substantial amount of damage to
2:17 pm
a high rise apartment building behind me. in fact, a large piece of a projectile siding its way right through that building, closing 3 depths up, possibly more were waiting the outcome of the ongoing search and rescue efforts up there. of course there was an air raid alert in place at the time. is there is most nights here, but i think many people will have decided that he's better off to stay in their apartments than spend nights off to night in underground bunkers and shelters. okay, well that's the view from teeth that sketch of you now from the front lines about these dramatic the buttons, tall, strong, to joins us on the road to buck boots, an eastern new train, and charles speculative at the moment perhaps. but could this have implications for the front months? i think certainly would be fair to say that this could have massive implications to the front line developments, very much in the initial stages of this long expected counter offensive that we
2:18 pm
know started around about 2 weeks ago. we've been speaking to ukrainian soldiers here in the town, one of the, the towns closest to bus moved. and they are saying that they are going to and they will exploit the chaos in on the russian control side of the front slide. and they would hit russian full seas called we seen a lot of troop movement here. interesting me this morning. we've seen personnel carriers and, and had a cult to specially designed to carry infantry to and from the front lines as being a lot of heavy shilling as well. um and another. so just saying that this was a very big day for ukraine, and he's like, well, we're going to basically look and see what happens in the next 48 hours. but it goes. but it is important here because this was the place where it really involved and it came to the full in this will. they was so instrumental, so fundamental to russian full. she's taking full control of it
2:19 pm
a few weeks ago. we're already hearing in the last few days also is the ukrainians, at least claiming that they have started to push from the south up north on either side of above, moot, we call and confirm that. and interestingly, just in the last few hours as well, there are claims being made that we cannot independently verify from telegram channels. saying that to you currently forces may well have taken control of a few more streets in the city. so yes, these could have huge implications, right? the way across the front line that we'd be looking at 2 particular areas on the 1000 kilometers of front line and trying to gauge the kind of challenges that ukrainian facilities are facing in the early stages of discount dro offensive. this is our report. russian full series of withdrawal and from what remains of this part, the village,
2:20 pm
its people fled or destroyed ukrainian military vehicles. these toad from the battlefield did. russian soldiers in the gross ukrainian ministry last week announced it had complete the re taking the village of stores ever. but that's not quite true. the pricing you can see here is, as a result of the russian, it strikes yesterday ukrainian minutes. we are telling us that's low, they please. so they say the majority of this village, there is still ongoing fighting on the outskirts and they say they are facing fish resistance. promotion policies to ukraine's counter offensive was expected for months that gave russian forces time to prepare it to gods. they have strong app on the lots of infantry supported by heavy onto the way that moving slowly towards us. but with telling them apart, we're conducting small defensive operations on the outskirts of the village along
2:21 pm
the forest line. but there were many mines worked around 200 kilometers. no. the russian occupied town, camina barrels of the barrel eligibility to re far it goes through the forest ukrainian soldiers here on this russian positions or a few 100 meters away. ukrainian forces we took this area joint account you were offensive last summer. need a site is made major phones for months. but as you create anatomy began to pro for weakness in russian defense is to the south. things here began to change is just me. it is just on the street. there is nothing good here. visitation is very dense. well, the new list of clinical by itself in the, the trench come on to tells us to take a couple of because russian helicopter gunship like in the area you,
2:22 pm
there is constant 5 for more to is tillery helicopters, as strikes and small arms, their sole top position in small groups, they're trying to break through to capture an important supply route, hauled golf in early days, says ukraine, and it's and they towed back as if it ever is a decisive breakthrough. it could take months. charles profit alger 0, eastern new grain. let's bring in uh sonya okay. yeah. go now who's in london for us? sonya, what's the reaction been across you are p and capitals to the developments in russia as well. it's been mostly one of the monitoring the situation as closely as possible the european council that is the 40 that brings together the latest level $27.00 european union member countries has said that this is clearly an internal russian issue. however, he also wanted to align the your opinion support for the ukraine as president of the team. is the lensky saying it was on wavering as well. we have
2:23 pm
a response from the british prime minister as well. uh, wishes to not to the british government is currently holding an emergency committee known as cobra. its meeting to discuss the ongoing situation, the and the permit us to see not cosette, that he would be speaking with allies. and he, on the lines uh, the old policies in the conflicts in russia should avoid any home to civilians. so we'll be hearing more about that's a response of to the conversation with the allies of the day off to now as far as the british ministry of defense has, is concerned and a regular intelligence update. it is stated that the, the loyalty of russia, security forces, and especially that of the russian national guard, will be key to how the crisis plays out as it to presents the most significant challenge to the russian space. in recent times. of the m. o. d has also said that
2:24 pm
with has very limited evidence of pricing between wagner groups and the russian security forces. and some will of like, he remains passive acquiescing to welcome again. that is, according to the british defense ministry as well. but nature, of course, monitoring the situation closely in other countries, which have bit more skin in the game close geographically to russia, such the stoney a opponents have also set the bail monitoring costs as don't even said that there is no direct threat to the country. however, it is not a, it is not advising anyone who urging people not to travel to any parts of rusher tool and the italian prime minister, georgia maloney again monitoring closely the events. but it's interesting you saying that they show that it's russians. assault on ukraine is causing instability within russia. so of course there is this concern, the death of all the european countries, um that you plus the u. k. really keeping
2:25 pm
a close eye on the watts will be on the folding of the coming hours. of course, that affects how the response will be to those those events that has of course, been a bit of tension among european union countries about how to direct functions. course everything now is seems to be pay and, and all the powers that are in the your opinion. now, looking very closely as to how this will possibly play out and how it will affect the european union's response to those events. sonya diego, thank to well step on wolf is a professor of international security at the university of bending and the found of the pod costs and use that to navigating to both tex dot com. but he's in the buy them in the u. k. and joins us live now. welcome to the program. what have you made so far? these foss moving developments? but it's a really interesting situation. something that one could have seen coming for quite some beaks,
2:26 pm
given the tensions between the walking of food and the russian miller tree. but i think the speed with which the events have one forwarded over the past 24 hours is quite amazing. and that's one of your correspondents pointed out. that's very little evidence at the moment. the development group is finding much was distance from washer so security services. and given that they, on our policy on something like 300 miles, 500 kilometers on songs of moscow law have couple tough the distance between most of them don't. and the russian capital that is quite amazing into our community creates a significant crisis or for the president of national that said in terms of military capability is default and actually capable of achieving progressing things. but it's really difficult uh to sort of estimate that. um for the, for 2 reasons. i mean on the one hand, martin,
2:27 pm
i was claiming that they have approximately 25000 uh people uh on the bill. uh, come on to the, the office, the quite federal homes, um veterans of the, uh, crane and uh, we're all by now. the 2nd point is that it's not clear how many capable forces are actually available in rush. all right, now, given that a lot of the fluids is all tied off in the offensive against the ukraine, taking them out of fuel clay now, then would create the kind of opportunity the fuel correspondence i mentioned. so the ukrainian condo offensive to become more effective than it has been over the past few weeks. so in that sense, um, it's uh, really difficult to see. i'm gonna probably have to wait for another 24 hours or so to see how the russian military, uh and uh, for security service will decide. well, the loyalty smart people, cyprus, president,
2:28 pm
put in all the available bonds support or at least not stand in the way of support or developing focusing on how much of a challenge is this to present food? tens of 13 not withstanding the fact that evolving the chief has not directly criticize him. a it's a huge challenge because for the 1st time it is now very much in the open and cannot be uh, sort of wrapped up or kept on the reps on, in, in the washing media. the day is a real problem, both with the war in your crime, but the reasons that they've given up for this war. but also that the way in which washer has been has been wanting to vote. so i think in that sense, it is very much a challenge to put in and put in also has made it a challenge to him. in the address that he came this morning to on, to the russian population. that he was not naming box 9 precaution in particular,
2:29 pm
not clearly sorry to release his military to cross on and cautioned against this kind of will to cooled off high trees and a step into back against russia. how do you feel that this could change the overall dynamics of the war? you try i think it's very difficult to predict at the moment. i think the key issue will be well on the russian ministry and all the russian security forces and see the futures and which side devil take a lot in. what is right now, we do your battle between precaution and the criminal and the russian ministry of defense. second interesting question is not just what western allies of ukraine movie doing, but also how russia's allies really look at that. i think it's movie very interesting to see how the china will respond to, to the events and to both statements be, might be coming on. they might be seeing coming out of being off over the next day,
2:30 pm
or 2 or on the metal off. well, the very clearly indicates is that it's, this is the put in this, in this, in control of the events in russia. and the crisis that she has caused a to rush on with the invasion of your queen is only going to deepen all over the next few days, weeks and months and bots the might still be coming out on talk. people will be coming out on top of a significantly weakened and that doesn't have implications for the close of the war in ukraine and how it might come to an end. yes, he mentioned the international situation. there are, wagner has mercenaries in several countries. could this have why the implications of some of the, i mean i wrote something about this some time ago on the navigating to bull tax block on how widely a bar cannot actually has cost. it's not in terms of on that it's,
