9:03 am
it's risky to leave, but perhaps riskier to stay. the city's infrastructure has been decimated by days of fighting, leaving residents without hate electricity and water supplies, a running thin station in full, and the resolve her not was ability physical. if you knew any supply, ah no read no milk, no eggs, no nothin, and all the gems threes close to am. thermal ukrainian or sorry to say the russian army has stepped off its shelling of residential areas. russian forces blew up the railway station here. so now ambulances and vans have been used to evacuate people to me by cave, broke the office. with that, with the russian assault, getting closer to cave, it may not be long before they have to flee. once again,

9:05 am
but the driver still hope they'll be another chance to rescue their fellow countrymen. proven wilson, i'm not afraid any more. there are many of us. we will find a way through our rooms. some 200000 civilians are currently trapped. ann maria, pull the strategically important port city has been under heavy bombardment. water and electricity remain cut off, and food is running low. just outside keith, more missiles and artillery attacks. ukrainian officials say it's the same picture across the country, but ukraine's vanessia effort was also hit by miss ellis strikes prompting president zalinski to repeat his call for swift international action. zachary black, she introduced a no fly zone for all russian rocket. so for russian combat aviation for the
9:06 am
terrorists introduce a humanitarian safety's own without rockets without balm. and while the landscape plea goes unanswered, ukrainians are doing their best to flee the intense shelling we go. and let's talk to nick connelly about that our correspondence in the ukrainian capital nika, these humanitarian car doors. how viable, how safe, and how plausible are they? wolves, he sounds like a great idea, an option to give people who be living without power, without water, in some cases, and with scarce food, an option to get out. but as we've seen the last 2 days, it's not working. mary, full in the east who had 2 attempts now both basically been abandoned within hours of being announced ukrainian side, accusing russia of continuing to fire in spite of its commitments. similar issues here, close to keep it appeal. we just heard there basically
9:07 am
a western suburb of key about 25 clumps from i am now where families were killed to say trying to get out a railway infrastructure destroys people having to get out in buses going on very dangerous roads. i think the ukrainians now increasingly coming to the point of view that they think this is russia negotiating in bad faith trying to win time to continue it's offensive rather than some kind of commitment to give you credit for college. the child to get away from fighting. we've seen lots of civilian losses in place like had kids where residential areas have been targeted. so a real sense that this conflict is turning or nasty. it's going more dangerous to civilians and it's increasingly being fought on the streets, ukraine, cities. what about in the capital int he, if way you why? why here in downtown cave is you can see it's kind of eerily quiet. i think there are still lots people in the capitol. everyone has left, but they're keeping a very low profile. you see cage, people that windows looking kind of through passed their curtains trying to get a sense of what's going on. you see them going to get food occasionally,
9:08 am
but i think most people have big supplies. the big thing here is the worried that they're going to attempt to kill you. cranes democratically elected president lim, zalinski, get rid of its leadership. we heard calls from moscow. they're talking about demand circle d notification. what that means. so basically russia saying it wants to decide who's in charge here in ukraine, irrespective of what ukrainians have elected in terms of representatives, to the real fear that there'll be some kind of attempt to attack the government quarter. where not far from where i am now. and basically you'll see that the big fear of being surrounded and supplies being cut for now there are still routes in and out from the south, south west. the situation isn't quite as bad as it is in some way, like hack, if. but it's more the tense tension and the nerves, the feeling that something homeless is, is on the cotton. during ever closer. nick, what about your safety as a journalist we've heard about reports of attacks on media crews over the past few days. i think for now we're still in a very privileged position compared to ordinary ukraine civilians are our kind of
9:09 am
press bosses and our calls are all covered in science saying press of the most part we get through checkpoints without too much of an issue, but they're happy in these wearing reports from the western civil kevin, also from southern ukraine of jealous, seemingly having been targeted in spite to me because of having that cause marked as being for journalists. i think the ukrainian side fritz. i definitely knows that having and social media here is something that they should welcome because it draws attention to the plight of ukrainian civilians. i think that's not the case for the russian army, but for now we feel like we can do our job. and i think definitely the detention should be on ukrainian civilians who don't have the kind of support the most intentional media would have him. you've been doing a great job over the past couple weeks for us. nick connelly of corresponded in kia, thank you very much. they say he's a look at some other developments in the conflict. several western countries including the u. s. and u. k. of called on it to poll to immediately suspend russia from the network, according to a tweet from the british home safe retreat. the country side to thread to public
9:10 am
safety post by russia's invasion of ukraine into old. and they're both of a $194.00 countries which facilitate the policing of international crime. the u. n . nuclear watchdog says it's concerned about reports. the communications have been disrupted at ukraine's largest nuclear power plant. russian soldiers took the separate t. a facility on friday after shelling it and have reportedly turned off its internet and telephone lines, reliable communications, a critical to safety. the social media company, tick tock is suspending. the posting of videos from russia is, comes after moscow pastor lor introducing jail terms of up to 15 years for publishing. what he calls fake news about the army. tick tock says it needs to keep its employees safe. security forces in russia have to take over 4000 and the ball protest is across the country. the figure is from an independent protest monitor, police arrested people in several u, russian cities including moscow in st. petersburg. the more that organizes and
9:11 am
participants in demonstrations will face challenges. authorities have imposed restrictions on the protest. citing the coven 19 pandemic. and when i was joined by constantine, it still use russia. phase analyst to jones ville is how effective could protesting be given the large number of the tensions we're seeing in russia right now. of good morning. i think that these protests up there is significant because they continue for days running. now, at the same time, the numbers are fairly small, 440000000 country. so it is still not a massive moment, not even something that would be compared to the anti put in protest of 2011, 2012. but there is one significant thing i think, and it is the geography rather than the numbers on the chain, although the big and
9:12 am
a lot of these people are going to get probably this started, much harsher than usual. is the fact that rationally has, i think, 18 or 19 of the don't my head city is with 1000000 population or more. that's where the internet is. that's where information is that's, that's where that i'm. there is more resignation. so now the geography of the broadcast is about 50 city. that means that even in russian robbins, there is no individual recognition, that things are going wrong and the government essentially lied to them. and that is significant because in a smaller place, the effects of a reli is much bigger because, well, i mean, i would say everyone knows everyone, but the, the information about this, the effect of a public is that is much more significant. but i think that's probably this is still not something that shakes food is found ation. however,
9:13 am
the information is getting free. but tell us about this, russian se pulling agency that's pointed out they've let me put an approval rating in russia has risen to 70 percent. what do you make of that number? the bows are under unreliable, russia, many people lie to the bolsters because there is after rushes, 20th century revolution, civil war, 2 world wars. bad. people tend to understand that the authorities made the listening. so you're freaking out the, the bosses what they think the governments like to hear. secondly, speaking current circumstances, i wouldn't be surprised that any holding somebody from the park, from one of them, of this or that way controlled by the government. government, russia, they will probably be ready to give. they go, that's reflect what the government wants to hear. i wouldn't beth home reading this
9:14 am
. i'm sure that those people that watch state television for example, are definitely seeing a different picture that differently. they definitely think that putting as well on the military front, the us and poland has been discussing the delivery of find a j to ukraine. how likely is that to happen? i mean, would it be a sign of nato's direct involvement? well, that's what putting says, he said that what a delivery is will be hosted and actually said those are closing this guy's introducing enough light zone will be seen as an actual box. i think that things are gradually moving in this direction. your brain has quite a big number of people who get the 5 pilots, including those who recently retired. my understanding is that this may be on the demo very soon, just by the way, refusal to buy russian oil by say,
9:15 am
united states. i think that maybe the energy energy weapons, the energy super rapid progression. probably next. next slide. the agenda. yes, it will be interesting to see these developments. a class moving concertina. got thank you very much for bringing us your analysis. large crowds also gathered across europe and the u. s. over the weekend to protest against the russian invasion demonstrators took to the streets of barcelona in spain. in this with city of geneva crowd saying the ukrainian national anthem in new york city, thousands converged on time square to show their support and demand measures for china is called for negotiations, but as not labeled the war in ukraine. as a russian invasion, there are growing international calls for beijing to take more concrete action. australian prime minister of morrison says china has a crucial role to play in ending russia's war on the cross. is this your parents?
9:16 am
my choice to john? john is eminently under, mister boone, russia has charged the powerful boss. and so you can do either to in the global, no country would have a writer impact right now, on russia's violent aggression towards the crime. in china joining the rest of the world in denouncing russia, ranch aggression, and applying the same sections we have so far. i haven't all, despite those goals for china to take action, the close relationship between it's liter sheeting ping and russian president vladimir putin as promptly questions about just how neutral beijing can be. once bitter rivals, china and russia are now as close as frenemy can be. the start of the winter olympics and beijing last month. so she, jim ping and vladimir putin declare a new era, a no limits partnership backing each other over stand offs and ukraine and taiwan
9:17 am
with a promise to collaborate more against the west. china likes to present itself as an honest broker in the conflict, but following the russian invasion, beijing has largely sided with its neighbour and clo security partner, russia. and rather than criticize moscow, the chinese government instead blames the u. s. for causing the crisis here, which we hope all parties will work together with china to deescalate tensions, instead of adding fuel to the fire and promoted diplomatic solution. and china will continue to play a constructive role in seeking and realizing peace are pusher yahoo or union. she is a long time admirer of putin and the 2 autocratic leaders have formed a strong bond, chanted denies that it knew about the invasion in advance, and had asked russia to wait until the olympics were over before attacking ukraine . while professing neutrality facing stance is geared more towards moscow,
9:18 am
china abstained on both of the united nations on sanctioning russia and demanding the withdrawal of russian troops. the chinese refuse to acknowledge that russia has invaded ukraine admission to me. china is clearly watching the west reaction to the invasion, especially when it comes to its own efforts to take control of self rule taiwan. at the national people's congress, china's annual rubber stamp parliament beijing hike. this year's defense bending by 7 point one percent. while the ukraine crisis is putting pressure on china, beijing's priorities like closer to home with taiwan. as the russian invasion continues, the number of refugees fleeing the violence continues to climb. the united nations says the total number of people who fled ukraine has now topped one and a half 1000000. many of the refugees fleeing and heading to poland, savannah or romania, but more mora, also looking for the west. the border cities of frankfort order in germany, and will beats in poland already have a very close partnership. within a few days,
9:19 am
people there have put together a huge support network for refugees. t w report as a whole, it has more. oh, my query, who tries to keep track now youthful, so here of food and hygiene items are closed 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 year, not 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 boats speaks from her own experience with equal mouth him. i come by the
9:20 am
former yugoslavia early i experienced war as a child, while 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 too many 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 oto river lice who pizza, 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.
9:21 am
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 and ukraine, tears begin to flow reported alone 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 ukrainian border. i feel good. i feel brave and i'm excited. ok, city. of course, that's a big thing we're doing now. and if everything goes well on their way back to germany, they want to take along as many ukrainian refugees as they can now report from the german polish border there. let's move for the east now and bring in
9:22 am
detail. you report it as a fighter. she joins us from shay, michelle, near the polish ukrainian border. tessa, just how cold is it there and how long of people had to brave those temperatures? not to mention of course the wall raging in their review mirrors. it is really cold here. it was actually snowing this morning and you can see the people here behind me. they are waiting to get into the refugee center where it's a bit warmer where they can buy. they can warm up because they've been queueing to get into poland. for hours we spoke to one woman. she came all the way from ki f through levine. and she was waiting 12 hours at abbas station at nights, just to get further here. and once they get here to see the cues at the border, very long too. but luckily, once they get into this refugee center, they can warm up their baths prepared for the people they can get food, they can get water. there's a lot of volunteers here trying to help them and make this undignified situation.
9:23 am
elizabeth, better for them, but the temperatures, they definitely are not helping her. how would you say they're doing how or what would people telling you about their experiences? i think still situation that safe with me the most was yesterday when we were right at the border where the man have to say good bye to their wives because man of right now they can't leave ukraine. if they're between 18 and 60 years old. we met flighty mir, and this is what he told us. i will go some are brought probably territorial defense or something like that. and will be preparing for the fight. heartbreaking scenes there. poland has already taken in a record number of people. how prepared would you say volunteers are for this constant flow of refugees, though?
9:24 am
it really is resting on the shoulders of the rest of the volunteers here. i mean, for one representative of the authority say you have 20 volunteers helping out and they have come from everywhere. obviously there's a lot of polish people, but they also people from france, from germany, all the way from in del canada, have come here to help. but these people, they've taken time off of work the here during the weekend, but at some point they will have to return to their families. they will have to return to work. so the question really is what happens when they have to leave? because people keep pouring in and for another situation isn't any getting any better, it's just getting worse. really? it's amazing to see the response and it's a fantastic stuff. but i can't help thinking about back during the syrian war when refugees were lining up on that very border. and poland was not nearly as willing to let them in back in 2015. that was
9:25 am
that's very true. and we can see that today is a very different attitude. people are very welcoming and that's not only for the volunteers here on the ground, but that goes all the way through to the authority level. i talk to a polish colleague, he is also a journalist and he told me that people are more willing to take them on because they are white because they're christian. but also because they share a common history in the middle ages. at the end of the middle ages that were actually ruled by the same people here. now they're 2 different countries, but they have the neighbors forever. so really these people here they, they can relate them. they are very strong ties to ukraine, but people just keep pouring in yesterday. a volunteer was saying we've taken on 1000000 people will take on another 1000000. but at some point, we will need help here and help coming from other countries as well. of course, to ease the situation. i know over the weekend many arriving here in germany in
9:26 am
cities like berlin and des. so it's great to see so many people helping out. and thank you for your reporting. testified a ukrainian tennis player who fled rush and bombing a week ago has narrowly missed out on a remarkable title at a tournament in the all the yonder. yes, cleared him. sca spent 2 nights in an underground parking lot before fling her home in odessa. lucy eventually lost the torments final tramps go, said she would donate her price money of the $15000.00 euros to support people in ukraine. afterwards, she spoke of the emotional toll the week had taken on her. it's been a very emotional week for me and it's pretty hard. but in the finance today, i think i didn't have enough emotions in borrower, and i didn't know what to say. i don't know how to describe it, but if i try my best say give it all and i think i didn't have enough attention for
