[000:00:00;00] ah, ah ah, this is dw news live from berlin b where says it's working on a deal to supply fighter jets to ukraine, secretary of state antony lincoln says the u. s. is in talks with poland to replenish its stock of war plans. if warsaw decides to provide its own jets to its neighbour and a 2nd attempt to day to evacuate ukrainian civilians, officials and the besieged city of mary paul have begun efforts to move people to safety,

a longer humanitarian corridor. they were forced to postpone evacuations on saturday and you to cease fire violations and hundreds of men line up in the capital keep to join the army united in their resolved to defend their homeland from invasion pass. we report from the german polish border where volunteers are organizing aid convoys, the ukrainians, and transportation for refugees seeking safety. ah, i'm rebecca writ as welcome to the program. as russia continues its assault on ukraine, the united states has indicated it's looking into ways for poland to supply fighter jets to ukraine. u. s. secretary of state antony blank and said american made f sixteens could be sent to poland to replenish its own stalks. if warsaw decided to

send you crime fighter jets from atone fleet pilots in the ukrainian air force are already trained to fly the soviet aeroplanes. thank in made the comments on a trip to ukraine's neighbor, moldova, we are, are, we're looking actively now at the question of aeroplanes. the poland may provide a to to ukraine and looking at how we might be able to backfill should pull and decide to produce those but 2 hours of supply those plans. a deputies mathias bellinger is in cave forest mathias, the u. s. they're considering a plan to assist poland, even where to send fighter jets to ukraine. now that's a move that would no doubt be welcomed by ukraine. oh, what about burton? would that be a red line for president putin boots his red lines isn't something that maybe people have talked about a little bit too much. putin has already said that ukraine defending itself against

the russian invasion is the red line for him. and so he's, he's, he's named quite a few others. of course the natal needs to weigh in the risk offer of an escalation or of a big escalation. but these planes have already been promised to ukraine. several european e syrup in countries have already said that they would be ready to supply ukraine with old soviet airplane similar and designed to those that ukrainian pilots already know. so i don't think that this crosses the direct engagement of nature military into this conflict. and the rest is of course up to put in what he defines as his red lines. we've heard several of them and a few past few years ago to look at what he really means would this be the biggest show of military support by the way?

so far i think delivering javelins has so far been quite so and, and other anti tank and anti a anti airplane massage has already been quite a display of military support. of course. plains are what are needed now because from the ukrainian perspective, the biggest danger now are not the troops fighting on the ground but the but, but everything that's in the elf course, russia has a lot more airplanes than ukraine. ukraine has a pretty small air force. so i think it would be quite a significant sign, and ukraine has demanded many times that the nato would a in store a no fly zone. effectively, meaning that nato would engage in disguise over ukraine. that's with nato has refused. this could be a way out of without engaging nato troops in this war, which is something, as i've said,

that nato is really trying to pretty attending to the humanitarian effort now. and of course today the humanitarian satisfied to allow for evacuations. there have been reports that people are already starting to leave those areas. is this see far more likely to hold than the one that was planned for yesterday? likely in as a something is that's very hard to operate with now. we haven't heard that it had has been broken yet. that's already a good sign. and we've also heard that it seems as if people have already been moved out of there. however, all of this leaves confirmation on the one side. and it needs confirmation by the ukranian authorities. the fact that we haven't heard that, that is why ours collapsed yet is a sign of hope. you're in cave. what's the situation there and around the capital today?

as you can see around me there very few people on the streets, of course, many have left. we've seen in the past few days, all these pictures of cause of traffic jams out of the city. people will have a call. many of them have left families have left some people have returned. some men have returned group who have brought their families to the border as men cannot leave the country. but over all i've there that it's likely that that much fewer people in the city at the, at the present time than usually. and also people are not really trying to a, to be outside a lot. supermarkets are open water and electricity are there. so the situation is, is, is okay in the humanitarian way. we do this kind of price is it, but it's tenants and the troops are quite close to the capital in the northern suburbs fighting has been going on death for days. people are hiding in shelters,

not being able to leave to date. we had used that some people who tried to leave this area. so attendance, but com here in my makia, thank a date at least mathias billing at mt. british military intelligence also say russian forces and now deliberately targeting areas populated by civilians. a response to the ukranian resistance, which is slowing rushes advance in spite of these increasingly brutal tactics. volunteers, including many from outside ukraine, assigning up to join ukraine's army man between the ages of 18 and 16 have to stay in the country so they're available for conscription. these men are determined to fight for their country, even in the face of russian firepower. and without support from nato here and keep their waiting to sign up,

the ukraine armed forces resolved to do their part for the war effort north. the me, a war is look here, which is my duty. i won't be useful if i want to help you. i want to protect it, i want to fight back with. i want my family to return to ukraine as soon as possible, and i will do my best. other volunteers stalking up for the battle ahead and optimistic about victory renaud, why redefined our country and our guys that are actually standing there and fighting our russian military forces. they know what they are doing those guys. they don't, we know what we are doing, and that's why real, when it's that determination that's helped inspire volunteers from much further afield to join the fight at craig middle true, don't steer for has just been for even one other country for on and what he's just thought isiah galvan was very important for no illusions on our remind me, what is the world i'm going to be so i'm here i will make a difference or any of the spot is water

with going to do 3 was with heavy fighting already reaching the city of your pin, just outside, keep, it looks likely to volunteer. his bravery will soon be put to the test. meanwhile, israel is emerging as a potential mediator in the crisis on saturday. prime minister enough, tony bennett, became the world's 1st leader to mate with vladimir putin since the invasion began . to surprise meeting was followed by talks with ukrainian president lensky. bennett, then travelled on to germany the 2nd time this week. the 2 ladies met, after shalt visited jerusalem on wednesday, to discuss a diplomatic solution to the crisis. bennett has offered to act as mediator where the israel maintaining good relations with both russia and ukraine. will be more of a more let's bring in database political correspond benjamin alvarez gruber. ben. what more do you know about the meeting between chancellor sholtes and israel's

natalie bennett? we had a brief, a press release by the german government spokesperson. he said that both so prime minister bennett and german chancellor shoals medical, 90 minutes. what they underlined is that they will do everything they can, that is in the strength and the war in ukraine as part as soon as possible. and that's also what they are on the line, their commitment when they met in jerusalem earlier this week. why didn't bennett take the initiative to mediate in this complex is what is in a quite interesting position. so as you mentioned already, it has very good relationship with both moscow and also with keith. but it's a different call of the also situation for israel. we've seen the video protests in israel already asking the government to take a clear stand and condemn russia's invasion of ukraine. but there are 2 interests here that the government has to keep an eye on. so one side is of course,

to present himself as part of the west, and the lions are close all to the united states. but also of course it has its own national security interest. and israel has a security military corporation with russia in syria. so that's exactly why many and why celestials you, prince president, has asked, inevitably banded the prime minister of israel to act as a mediator. so for now, this talks, it will continue. this rather surprise visit to moscow and to berlin. and thank here. didn't have any political correspond spawned and benjamin our as grew bow. and while other diplomatic efforts are underway in turkey, president, wretch of time ur tuan has spoken by phone with his russian counterpart vladimir putin in which he urged him to a grade to a cease fire in ukraine, open humanitarian corridors, and to come to a pe steel turkey has close relations also with both moscow and cave,

but recently moved to limit the passage of russian warships into the black sea. a longstanding, international agreement allows anchor to block ships from passing through its straits during war time, but it can't prevent them from returning to their home ports. data please. dion jones is in istanbul for a star and what do you know about that call between a president and patton? well, the call has finished up, but there's been no readout or what actually happened in those talks that neither mussman or uncomfortable lease or any information as of yet. but i touched presenter richard tapered one. so spokesman, the brown collins, speaking to reporters on saturday, said that early on in those talks, we'll call for an end to hostilities by russia and failing that, at least of all cookie. these growing international calls for a cease fire to allow humanitarian corridors to be established to it, to these besieged cities all across the ukraine,

where then the humanitarian aid can be delivered and civilians can exit. and that would be the message for mode one, apparently will was delivered to put in along with the fact that according to color, the detox position is it can be no resolution to conflict until there's a c c sation for of humph. of the conflict and a turkey is trying to position itself as a, as a possible mediator ever since the conflict started on cra, has been trying to position itself to mediate between nope, of ukraine and roger as president nerd. one has close relations with both those countries, presidents, but as a fietta hootin has rebuffed those f as by turkey. could these latest developed be seen as tacky? taking aside, i mean, as you say, there, nato country has really close relations with ukraine and russia. well that's the question that i'm in this country really is put, took in a very tight position. i've been walking a tight rope trying to balance relations with both sides up on the one site. turkey hasn't her imposed her sanctions against russia in his impact reject to them are

saying that they are counterproductive are and also turkey has not closed his air space to russian civil plains despite most of its western allies doing that. but the same time turkey has taken a tough stance against russia is clothes did sir stumble boss was war to wait to russian ships on top of that? it has been supplying lot of sophisticated weapons, few great. in particular, it's a noteworthy i drones, which have impacted russian military in a very beacon significant way. so i think that their expectation is that ultimately turkey is siding with ukraine and i think the turkeys western allies will be looking at this at the possibility of reaching turkey's relationship with russia and the usa, deputy secretary of state, wendy sherman, boston tacky on saturday, holding talked over ukraine, k w. dorian jones for us in istanbul. thank you. on with no end in sight to this war,

the number of refugees capes climbing. the un says the total figure of people who fled ukraine has now topped one and a half 1000000. many of the refugees flaying would prefer to stay near by and surrounding countries. sanchez, poland, slovakia, or romania. but more and more are also looking for the west. the border cities of frankfort, odor in germany. and so did so in poland already have a very close partnership. within a few days, people there have put together a launch support network for refugees. d w reporter axle revolt has more. oh is mike friedrich tries to keep track. no useful. so here are food and hygiene items close to outside. the office of his nursing service in frankfort, odor on the polish border, looks like the warehouse of a general store. a bag full of baby food has just been handed in donations for the people of ukraine. cardboard boxes are piling up and friends everywhere are helping

to pack. he and his partner started an appeal for donations immediately after the russian invasion of ukraine. the aim to bring the items across poland to the ukrainian border in a convoy this allen. again, not the period products for women and lots of diapers for the children. the response for children was really huge because children also suffer the most in war . baba price voltage speaks from her own experience equal mouse m. i come by the former yugoslavia early i experienced wore as a child on my family, lost everything we had nothing but a woman comes who wants to provide donations for her home country. okay. not all of them you all. she's lost contact with her relatives who live in keith, but titania albrecht cannot sit around doing nothing. you may, people have wishes. and since i have time at the moment, i am collecting everything and donating things that people need. but i would,

you mentioned vincent on be given hub across the odor river lice will be thought the polish partner city owning a punky bullet is out and about here. she's hardly gotten any sleep for days. she too, comes from ukraine. and now she's organizing housing for fellow compatriots who have fled. she put up to women and their children in a hotel. they arrived in the night and they don't want to show their faces. we were on the road for 48 hours. the bus had to leave the city at full speed and shells were exploding behind us. and now our men are going to war. when she wants to talk about her family in ukraine, tears begin to flow. on the german side of the river, the last 8 supplies are being stuffed into cars. originally, 6 cars were planned, but now there are 14 trucks and cars filled to bursting all making their way to the

ukranian border. i feel good, i feel brave and i'm excited. oh, of course that's a big thing we're doing now. it's more. and if everything goes well on their way back to germany, they want to take along as many ukrainian refugees as they can and take a look at some of the other developments in the conflict. now, several western media organizations say they're suspending reporting in russia with many journalists leaving the country. the decision comes after the kremlin past legislation cracking down on independent reporting. under the new law journalists can face up to 15 years in prison for describing putin's attack on ukraine as an invasion or war credit card. john's mastercard and visa say there suspending operations in russia dealing the latest blow to the increasingly isolated countries in battled financial system. the move follows crushing economic sanctions imposed

by the west in response to the invasion. russia's unprovoked attack on its neighbor has st. a vast global outpouring of public support for ukraine, massive weekend demonstrations have once again been taking place around the world. demonstrate has called for solidarity with ukraine, condemning rushes, president, putin, and calling for the end to the wall. ah, on the streets of london, rome, tokyo, and on and on. throngs of people around the world showed their support for ukraine . and their condemnation of russia. in munich, thousands of people formed a human chain that stretched for more than 4 kilometers weekend. i think it's totally awful, but the russians are doing a lot putting us doing he, the murderer outrage over the war and ukraine is running high. as the un says,

russian bombardment has already killed hundreds of civilians. a huge turnout at paris is plus delivery public demonstrators told d w, they want the west to step up support. this is a massive, massive injustice. and one of the worst thing that's happened in my locked almond, we're here to send a clear message to the ukranian people to support a message to vladimir putin to stop. now, when a message to europe in the west, you've done good so far do more. while moscow has forbidden protests that doesn't stop russians abroad from speaking out against their president. this war is war from our president, mr. fortune and non war of people. he wants to portray this war as if she, it's war afresh, but it's not, it's worth wouldn't include russian. people don't support him. while most of the world has condemned putin. he is not entirely without support outside his country, as evidenced by the turnout at this pro russian rally in the central african

republic. a russia came to our country in a moment of crisis. our country has suffered, our country has been mistreated by the rebels. and that is why we came to support russia, which came to give peace to our country b. yes. but russia has brought war, not peace to ukraine. and it's the ukrainian flag that is flying at most anti war demonstrations around the world this week. let's go back now to the huge volunteer efforts and countries neighboring ukraine. flynn ot is a medical student in the polish capital, warsaw, and has been helping refugees arriving there at the central station plan. thanks very much for joining us this morning. what have you in periods fair in the past few days. hi, thanks for having a good. we're here and i was the and on the past few days we've been so many volunteers,
