july 25th on d w. ah, ah ah, this is the w news light from berlin. ukraine tells its citizens in russia to leave as aggression increases. residents are also fleeing from east and ukraine as separatists shelling attacks continue. a correspondent visits the village caught in the crossfire. this is the beginning of russia invasion ukraine. and u. s. president joe biden announced as

a 1st wave of sanctions against russia, more countries joining, condemning moscow's recognition of separate estates in ukraine. ah, i've been fooling welcome. you crane has urged its citizens in russia to leave immediate late. it says russian aggression is increasing. so to the threat of invasion. kia has also called up reservists to be ready to fight. shelling has intensified in the east following russia's recognition of to break away regions as independent states. a corresponded, but he has boating of filed this report from a village close to the line between ukrainian and separatist held territory. it is quiet at the moment a good time to leave for days. now the people in the village of rubica have been under fire. the villages in ukrainian government control territory and is being

shared by separatists from the other side. you know, cl additional deliberately and then um the whole night is that some people are still in the cellar too scared to come out. did the kids spent the whole day yesterday downstairs, but at night we went upstairs pregnant because it was just too cold. downstairs a seller is a seller, but lowest bottle, half of the village has already left. the others are terrified. shells of come down, right in the center of the village. one shall hit the school yard while children were in clos. others have damaged people's homes. luckily, no one has been hurt so far, but the constant stress has taken its toll. electricity and gas have been cut off. now gas workers have come to patch up some of the damage or they, when we fix the pipe twice already we came last week yesterday and today we're here

again. well, because quite far away from the artillery positions of the other side, there are 15 kilometers between here and the front line, which is just the range of this artillery that they are using. people who have not experienced this kind of fighting, even during the worst times a few years ago, lena mccord encore and her neighbors have tried to make the most out of the cold and dumped cellar. but the effect of the electric heater is limited. she is in and out of the basement constantly those days. but i need to go up now to take some stuff to my daughters place. she is finally leaving with her kids at least to a place nearby. she

would like her to move further away until it becomes clear with the latest news from moscow and clear of me. no, i don't know what to think now. yes. i do not yet understand anything. i don't even know what to do next. it takes just a few minutes and the shelly begins again. 12 key have corresponded nick connelly, nick if ukraine's cold on his citizens, enabling russia to leave immediately is a full russian invasion imminent. well, definitely things getting more nervous here. we've heard reserve. it's being called upon to, to basically you can come to their own military units and report for duty. there is discussion here and key of all civilians being evacuated from places just like the

village we saw in that report. places that are just to close the front lines to guarantee civilian safety, increasing limitations on what people can do at night, or in terms of filming near that front line. basically, the government here for the 1st time, really suggesting that this could turn into a hot wall to this crisis, we'd heard from ukraine's leaders that they didn't think this would be anything beyond kind of posturing beyond brinkman ship on the pot of let me push and i think that announcement, in the posture days that russia recognize no separatists regions, not only where they are now, but their claim to the full entirety of the donating the hunts regents. that really has changed thinking here and give what is happening along that line of contact and east and ukraine like government and separate his forces the clashing well, as you saw in the report, people are often without heating. they might still have electricity, thousands of others, all without water because shelling has destroyed critical infrastructure. lots people who thought that they'd kind of made that piece with living next or was

owned because it was somehow manageable. they knew the rules, the game most the time shelling was at night and immediately along that front line, but even 10 kilometers behind that frontline people felt more or less safe. they thought that the worst they'd seen in 20142015 that that was over. but now since among lot civilians that this is even said she going to be worse for them than what they have already seen. lots people deciding whether it's now time to pack their bags and go ok has not mobilizing its entire military, but it is calling up reservists. what's the reaction to that? i think these are all people who have fought before, who have military experience. i think it doesn't have the same psychological effect as if they were calling up the whole male collation above the age of 18. that something that ukraine's coming very worried about doing that could cause panic. that people don't have an image preparation might try and get out of that my try and leave that. that really would see people scampering to the supermarkets, panic, buying really a sense that catastrophe is imminent. so this is still

a few steps back up. definitely a change and incremental change in what ukraine's government is signaling to its people. we've had a volume zalinski christ present, talking to cranes again last night. i'm seemingly now aware that he needs to give a more concise and more clear information to population animal regular basis. he came in for a lot of criticism for having not really spoken directly to ukrainians in recent weeks preferring states given to use the western press and lots of mixed messages coming out of the government. here in caves, the desire now and an attempt to try and keep people in the loop and try and prevent panic. and what about the attempt to resolve this diplomatically? as far as give seizes? well, it's very hard to see where the mileage is for any talks, even just last weekend. if you can remember, it was back as far as that, given everything that's happened since then, we had the amount on that call trying to organize some kind of grant summit between biden and putin may be with him as the mediator talks ship between foreign ministers and all of that is now over a secretary state essex in lincoln and also the french side saying that they're

basing nothing's talk about since the french excuse me, since the russians have recognized those separatist regions and a sense that basically right now, as long as ukraine is not going to give much way, isn't going to kind of capitulate as they would sit here and keep on its sovereignty. there's basically nothing to talk about with russia given that russia is, is, you know, seemingly intent on pushing through it, sir. demands on the full front of issues he w as an economy mtf rosser appears to be continuing its military build up along ukraine's borders images for a u. s. satellite company claim to show an enlarged base in southern bella rose just a few 100 kilometers from the ukrainian capital p. f. u. s. president joe biden says, russia's evasion of ukraine has already begun. russian troops on the move, the heading towards ukraine's east and border as fighting between ukrainian and separatist forces continues far away from the frontline,

the upper house of the russian parliament voted to authorize the use of force outside russia's borders. they also approved vladimir putin's recognition of the don yet, and lou haskell people's republics as independent states. but the russian president didn't stop there. he lay to renounce the borders of the 2 republics. include the ukrainian held territories, not just the rebel held areas, nor was it but his nell. we recognized that juliet's enhanced people's republics, which means we have recognized all the founding documents, including the constitution. and the constitution defines the boarders off the don yeske and lou hans regions at the time when they were part of ukraine. nobody mc ogden, you will have the civil crane. in response, u. s. president joe biden accused the russian leda of setting up a russian now to take more territory by force. this is the beginning of

a russian invasion of ukraine, as he indicated and asked permission to be able do from his duma. so let began to so i'm going to began to impose sanctions in response. far beyond the steps we and our allies and partners implemented in 2014 a us satellite company has released new images that claim to show military vehicles messing in southern belarus, even as western nations coordinate a unified response. many fear a full scale attack on ukraine is still part of russia's plans. o russian affairs analysts constantine agates joins us from lithuania. vladimir putin has recognized all of done yet scanned once as independent, but ukrainian troops hold 2 thirds of that territory. what does that make when food and explain means yes, and then he said,

that's why she expect skia to settle the old standing issues with the government school. both of these newly recognized entities on top of it, the zalinski government has to recognize that crimea is washing. it has to publicly state that it cancelled on old plans to join native. probably that will mean and put his parlance amending the training constitution to include neutrality was and finally, something that sounds to me straight out of you know, the better side street in 1918 through d minutes or on what that could mean. i don't know, probably ukraine should symbolically show that it's going to strengthen its armed forces. for example, council, it's contract with the u. k. 4 procurement up to more than destroyers, something like that. and if thesis fulfilled,

then that will mean piece from russia maybe. but as the landscape probably is not going to do it, probably 100 percent, going to do it. as we've seen in an economy the report, then it means only one thing that eventually puts in a will say that the newly recognized states need to have their full territory or the control. and that means, well haven't real competition. real battle between russia ukrainian force is very, very much possible to me. now at least the logic of this shows me that, but it doesn't get any of that. where, where does that leave him in the kremlin? i mean, he's still, or he says he still wants a diplomatic solution. well, work you said to guy, which is ironically, defenders are fatherland in russia. what you said, you said we're open to diplomatic solution and talks well essentially,

and i think in such circumstances that means you do as you do as we say, and then we'll accept because as we've seen now that you're buying more manually, micro blake can really want to talk to moscow any more. so i suppose that essentially this is just, this is just work way and frankly put in, we'll have to take a decision on what he's doing next because the logic of the said pushes him towards basically coming to the age, quote unquote of these newly recognized states and helping them secure the territory, the territory that lies now outside of moscow control is actually 2 thirds of these on the list of these regions. and it goes for there that also will basically be the beginning of probably i am going even further to build a land bridge between the russian territory and the crime in peninsula which is now

completely isolated from russia and part one. secret constantine. as many thanks for the analysis now to some of the other stories making use around the world. more than 60 people the dead after an explosion at a market in booking of paso in west africa. the boss was so powerful it brought down by homes. investigators suspected happened to the store selling explosives and chemicals from minus to change the owner, the lawyer for the uganda, north of quinn's a says he's arrived in germany. right. it says he was tortured, wiling, custody. he was charged with insulting you get as president and the president son, the case has raised international concern seen as the uncle authorities of announced compulsory cobra testing for all the territories, 7 and a half 1000000 inhabitants next month. chief executive carry landfill so extended strict social distancing measures. she said help from mainland china was required
