does is what hitler did before. the fear is that as the fighting intensifies, there will be many many more refugees to come. well, to talk about the bombardment of the nuclear power station i am joined by james acton, co—director of the nuclear policy programme at the carnegie endowment for international peace, live from washington. good morning to you. can you give us your take on how serious the situation is? , , . , on how serious the situation is? i, is? this is a very serious situation. _ is? this is a very serious situation. all _ is? this is a very serious situation. all the - is? this is a very serious - situation. all the statements from ukrainian authorities in the last two or three hours now suggests that the immediate danger to the plant has passed and the fire was not in one of the reactor buildings, it turned out to be in a training building and it has been extinguished according to ukrainian authorities and the plan's critical safety systems remain operational.

nonetheless, ukraine's nuclear power plants face an extraordinary level of danger at the moment. there simply are not designed, like any nuclear power plant, to be in the middle of a war zone and there is a real ongoing danger here for as long as this will last. because, of course, if firefighters, if those who will put out these fires are unable to get to the scene as well thatis to get to the scene as well that is a real danger, isn't it? because these reactors have to be kept continuously cool. right. reactors are not self—contained islands. they rely on personnel and electricity and equipment being able to get to them from the outside world. if a reactor has to be shut down it needs an external power source to stay cold. the primary means of doing that is with electricity from the grid. if russia attacks ukraine's electricity grid and cuts of power from its

power plants, that is a nuclear safety risk. nuclear power plants have backup diesel generators but if there are fires caused by attacks in a war, they could potentially damage or disable those diesel generators. and in the worst case which i want to emphasise we did not see today but in the worst case, there is a plausible accident scenario in which reactors would not be able to call themselves, the fuel would melt down and you could have radiation releases in a sequence similar to what occurred at fogel shima, albeit from a different trigger. ii from a different trigger. if that were the case, the worst case that you have outlined, who is at risk was to mark if you look at what happened in japan, radiation levels were acquired people living within ten or 50 kilometres of the plant to be evacuated. now, the aood plant to be evacuated. now, the good long-term _ plant to be evacuated. now, the good long-term news _ plant to be evacuated. now, the good long-term news from - good long—term news from fukushima was that people with

the exception, tragically, have some plant workers, people outside the plant were evacuated relatively quickly and are unlikely to face significant consequences. but if something similar happened in ukraine and people living around plant had to be evacuated, in the middle of a war, you are in a... your inner scenario which is unimaginable, unimaginably worse compared to the evacuation that the residence near fukushima went through. 50 residence near fukushima went throu~h. ., , . through. so what is critical ri . ht through. so what is critical right now _ through. so what is critical right now is _ through. so what is critical right now is that _ through. so what is critical right now is that power - through. so what is critical right now is that power is i right now is that power is retained the nuclear plant to keep things cool and the fires that are happening close by i put out? that are happening close by i ut out? , , . put out? the big picture here, it is imperative _ put out? the big picture here, it is imperative that _ put out? the big picture here, it is imperative that russia - it is imperative that russia stays away and does not conduct military operations in the vicinity of ukraine's nuclear power plants. more than that, it also refrains from attacks on things like the ukraine electricity grid that has

nuclear safety implications. obviously, a better scenario here is for russia to leave ukraine entirely. in the absence of that it has a clear moral and, as i understand, legal responsibility as well to do absolutely everything in its control to avoid a nuclear accident. control to avoid a nuclear accident-— control to avoid a nuclear accident. ~ ., ,, . ., accident. we appreciate your exoertise — accident. we appreciate your exoertise on _ accident. we appreciate your expertise on this _ accident. we appreciate your expertise on this and - accident. we appreciate your expertise on this and for- expertise on this and for staying up for us in washington. thank you very much for being on the bbc. let's bring you now some of the other developments. a bipartisan group of us senators have introduced a bill that would ban imports of russian oil. the bill would need white house approval to become more but president biden is reluctant to prove any measure that could increase inflation in the united states. canada is also tightening restrictions stop the world bank president has spoken to the bbc and says that warring ukraine is a catastrophe for the world. he said that global food prices are likely to increase as ukraine's vast

agricultural exports have come to a grinding halt. he also warned of global oil and gas prices and later in our business coverage you will hear that interview. the united states is granting temporary project did status to experience already in the country. the protection is for a period of 18 months and covers students, tourists and people on expiring work visas. the protection is for a period of 18 months and covers students tourists and people on expiring work visas. all submissions funded by the russian government to the 2022 emmy awards have been disqualified. the organisation, which hosts the annual award show said it had been appalled by the conflict in ukraine and could not, in good conscience, do business with those funded ljy do business with those funded by the russian state. more than1 more than 1 million civilians have fled ukraine because of the russian invasion and thousands of them have headed

to the city of lviv, less than 80 kilometres away from the polish border, in the hope of fleeing the fighting. let's go live there now and speak to a blogger based there who has been helping with the aid effort. welcome to the bbc and thank you for talking to us. explain what you have been doing in lviv so far?- doing in lviv so far? good morning _ doing in lviv so far? good morning and _ doing in lviv so far? good morning and thank- doing in lviv so far? good morning and thank you. i doing in lviv so far? good | morning and thank you. so doing in lviv so far? good - morning and thank you. so far it has been collecting military aid in poland, shipping over the border and then trying to get it to kyiv to one of the funds i'm helping to co—ordinate here. it has been pretty rough. i am really exhausted today already and it has to do with, largely, buying military gear but then i am also, because i'm transfer —— transferring back to kyiv, went

to the railway station a couple of times and i have seen people arrive from different cities, looking for, you know, a place to live and it has been wild. even for me as an ukrainian. in lviv you're not experiencing shelling or attack at this moment, of course, you have an influx of people coming from other cities. august through some of their stories. have you witnessed what is happening at the train station where it is extremely busy? it is extremely busy but people are keeping an orderly fashion. it is more about, i think, orderly fashion. it is more about, ithink, the orderly fashion. it is more about, i think, the entire country has ptsd now because i've seen people with empty eyes, people are helping each other and it is still very inspiring to see, even though they are panicking, even though they are panicking, even though they are panicking, even though they are scared, they still help each other out, they reach out to give each other a hand.

it is just heartbreaking to see those women and children looking for a place to go. we have never experienced anything like this in the last 30 years and i commend ukrainians for being so courageous and so nice to each other at this time but it is, to an extent, shocking. we will see what happens later but it is a crisis of a scale that nobody could imagine. and what are your plans in the days, the weeks ahead, depending on how long conflict last for? well... for now i am staying put for this place is relatively safe. i staying put for this place is relatively safe.— staying put for this place is relatively safe. i am needed here. i relatively safe. i am needed here- i am _ relatively safe. i am needed here. i am staying - relatively safe. i am needed here. i am staying here - relatively safe. i am needed here. i am staying here but| relatively safe. i am needed| here. i am staying here but i don't know. the reality is, and i say this without exaggerating, i've been a civic activist for a long time,

europe's and also that interview with the head of the world bank and his warnings that this impact that this conflict will have on ukrainian economy and global economy. all of that in a moment. hello there. cloud and outbreaks of rain are continuing to move very slowly eastwards. we should have more sunshine around across the uk this weekend, but on thursday, the best of the sunshine was across northern ireland. highest temperatures, though, were in the south—east of england — 14 degrees — ahead of that band of thicker cloud, which is taking that rain very slowly eastwards. there are some breaks in the cloud coming in from the west, a few showers around as well, but temperatures early morning could be close to freezing perhaps in northern ireland and western parts of scotland. further east, it's milder, but it is wetter. we've got cloud and rain from the word go. and for a while in the morning, that rain could be on the heavy side before it pulls away from much of eastern scotland and eventually from the north—east of england. we keep some rain, though, further south across eastern england. further west, though,

we're into that brighter sky, some sunshine and maybe one or two showers for northern ireland, western scotland, wales and western england. and these areas on the whole, a little bit milder, i think, on friday. still quite cold, though, for eastern scotland and the north—east of england. improvements, though, this weekend. more sunshine to come for scotland and northern ireland, and we should slowly see the weather improving across england and wales as that rain finally moves away. but we start the weekend cold in scotland and northern ireland, a slight frost here. there's even a risk of temperatures close to freezing in the south—west of england and south wales. further east, though, we've still got that band of cloud and rain. and that will tend to sink its way southwards and westwards, taking some of that damp weather towards the south—west of england, but allowing more sunshine in wales now, and the north of england, together with sunshine in scotland and northern ireland. and in the sunshine, temperatures 8, 9 degrees, so a milder day for eastern scotland and the north—east of england. second half of the weekend sees the back of this weather front at long last. looks like it is

going to be fading away a little more quickly now as that area of high pressure builds down from the north. so, the rain gets squeezed out. if there is any rain, it's really down through the english channel. a dry picture, generally, i think, on sunday. more sunshine to come across england and wales, certainly some brighter skies here, and we continue to see the sunshine after a cold start in scotland and northern ireland. still not particularly warm for the time of year. temperatures only around 8 or 9 degrees. high pressure builds in this weekend, and then it starts to slip away to the east of the uk, allowing a stronger wind to pick up, but it looks like all these weather fronts and rain are going to stay away towards the west.

hello again. you are with bbc news. i'm sally bundock. time now for the top business stories. twilight of the oligarchs. more sanctions on russia's superrich, but ukrainians tell the west it must stop buying russian, —— russian oil and gas. inflation alert, higher prices for everything, once the head of the world bank, and it is the portable southernmost. wheat prices soar on fears of massive supply disruption. ukraine and russia make up a third of global exports. plus, trade—offs, as more companies around the world refused to do business with russia, what is the financial cost of taking a stand.
