this with d w ah ah, this is due to the news live from berlin court doors of called back to craig rejects rush us proposal for civilian escape routes leading to russia and bellows. thousands attempting to flee are hoping for humanitarian course to safety, while those wrapped in western controlled areas displayed, their defiant, met with leading, while bombs falling. ukraine says 8 people were killed by a russian attack during

a supposed expire on president liners. lansky says russia must be punished for murdering civilians. and the u. s. nuclear watchdog wars the clock is ticking on a potential nuclear disaster in ukraine. as after communication was disrupted, with a power plant under russian control. russia says it's open to talks overseas. ah, hello everyone, i'm at layla. how are coming to life from berlin? it's day 12 since russia launched its invasion of ukraine and the human toll is grave. ukraine has rejected a russian proposal to create humanitarian corridors, to enable civilians to escape cities under attack. all but 2 of the plant orders

would lead to russia or its ally bellows. ukraine government spokesperson called the proposal, quote, immoral and accused russia of shelling civilians during previous ceasefire as well . now, a ukrainian delegation has flown into bellows to take part. in the 3rd round of talks with russian representatives. since the invasion began, the topic of humanitarian corridors is expected to be discussed. again. on a turn out to a roman now gone to ranko from r d w. russia service for more on this, the 3rd round of talks at roman another round of talks. what are they hoping to achieve that they haven't yet? oh, for ukraine. of course. as you've said, and number one, our goal is to achieve some kind of a ceasefire. for those humanitarian corridors in 2 major ukrainian cities are the credit of the capital cave and the 2nd largest city of ukraine, hockey. i to let people out of those cities, of course,

of the situation in the 3rd and city of maria bar, which is in the south of ukraine, which is surrounded by russian troops, is also very dire. and ukraine would like to, to achieve some kind of agreement with russia to let people from that city out as well. so exact, as you're saying, establishing humanitarian corridors to allow safe passage for those fleeing the violence. any reason that this will be respected by russia because it already violated those, these fires 2 times already? well, it's the 3rd round of talks and we must be very skeptical about the outcome. because the, this, the 1st and the 2nd one failed. and obviously, maybe there is some pressure from the international community, which is not always obvious to ours, some, some western or even eastern politicians. let's think for example, that

a turkey is trying to negotiate as well. these rarely prime minister was in moscow . so there is something going on out we will see to day if they have succeeded in achieving at least some kind of a compromise. let's pick up on what you just refer to that these 2 very different diplomatic efforts that are underway when a spearheaded by israel and the other by a turkey on thursday, i understand russian foreign minister, sergey allowed rod and his ukrainian, a counterpart we'll meet in turkey, for talks, antalya, i believe their 1st talk since the beginning of the invasion can turkey really mediate a potential ceasefire? well, i personally am skeptical about it, but still turkey has some chances because turkey has very good relations to russia and the turkish president, ridge up tape around has very good relations with president putin. so i think there is a chance there is a chance and we should try to believe that maybe this will bring some kind of

return, at least in the humanitarian crisis, which is unfolding in ukraine. i think maybe maybe if some international organizations like the red cross or like the or you see the organization for security and cooperation in europe. if they participate in the talks, which will be in the coming days and weeks may be then we will see some kind of success. so i am very cautiously optimistic while men are gone, franco from r d. w. rush out service sir rowman. thank you so much while russian forces are continuing to attack cities across ukraine, south and east airstrikes have been reported on the outskirts of keith. a ukrainian army chief has warned that russian troops are preparing to storm the capital. ah, the ukrainian national anthem echoes across ki iv oh,

but just a few miles from the capital, people continued to seek safety from the ongoing russian assault. meanwhile, the mayor of crime, a tourist said 2 people were killed. and 6 wounded shot in missile strikes in the eastern ukrainian cities. on monday rushes defense ministry released this footage purporting to show tanks advancing towards keith. but ukrainians are determined that won't be taken without a fight. volunteers are helping protect their capital. but there are no guarantees, it will be enough. as diplomatic efforts continue, ukrainian president volota muse, lensky remains defiant, and his message to the world may nap robots more. we will not forgive the shooting

of unarmed people the destruction of our infrastructure in so we won't forgive the creation of hundreds and hundreds of victims the suffering of thousands and thousands of people. and god won't forgive, not today, not to morrow. never when he needs, after you call it work, we'll go from a spokesperson for russia's defense ministry has announced a number of humanitarian corridors, unlike with their folk. those fleeing key of have been offered passage to neighboring fellow bruce, while those in har keith and escaped to russia itself. said nibbling yagni vaughan . this is an unacceptable option for opening humanitarian corridors. this will you do not sharpie bill will not go from even call from diem or from bish garad from near keith to bell racing in order to then fly to russia. hopefully keep it or, or see school for that i to in house on the only major city captured by the russians. people have displayed their defiant objection. ah,

standing their ground even as the occupiers fire guns above their heads. ah, well, earlier he spoke to maria, sir, he shouldn't go in originally a residence of the besieged city of multiple. she's now left the city and is in western ukraine in levine. yeah. so in a situation that is quite peaceful, if you might say this horrible days, a lot of people are trying to volunteer. for instance, yesterday we were calling or maybe hundreds of people who want to help with the communitarian, how to deliver it right here. and also there are people who are we being camouflage or they are buying some major things because there is a shortage of medicines in other parts of ukraine, specifically hemostatic or pain killers. and also, you know,

people are trying to help whenever they want to. and whenever they can, for example, yesterday i was calling maybe 5055 people who are approaching the biggest humanitarian center of the help in the in b and a lot of how this come in from other countries. so we're trying to transfer all the help right to key of to hark it to the states who can receive the help. unlikely. my real poll is not one of the status who can actually get a minute there and help on ukrainians, attempting to flee cities under rush and fire face immense danger. on sunday, an entire family was among 8 people who were killed as they tried to escape the town of european near cave. according to your queen authorities, while almost 2000 people were evacuated from european amid heavy bombing. and i'd like to warn you,

our next report contains distressing images. this video captures the moment a motor blast hits the town of a pin people and making a desperate dash to safety. taking only what they can carry. residents climb over a bombed out bridge, praying they make it out before the shelling returns. not everyone does 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 there is no love what to do with the physical if you knew any supply. ah no read no milk, no eggs, no, nothing. and to all the chemistry is close to and it's normal.

ukrainian, or authorities 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 are being used to evacuate people to me by key pro, careful with that, with the russian assault, getting closer to cave, it may not be long before they have to flee. once again. close with mom is a historian and a retired general of the german army and joins. and now thank you so much for taking the time to take our questions. i want to start off with good evening. i want to start off with the rules of engagement in war. what are they when it comes to protecting civilians? it's quite clear that the international law law of law, protects civilian sandra calls. they oh,

all parties to do everything to, to save them and her not to inflict them. and what russia does is exactly the opposite. it's hard to see how long this conflict will go on for, but ukraine claims that russia is intentionally attacking civilians as part of its strategy strategy. is this some, is that an assessment that you share? let us be, be aware that was put in has started was meant to be a blitzkrieg of subjugation and it has not worked. he has miscalculated. he has miscalculated the response of the international community, the unity of the west, the sanctions, and above all, the resistance by the ukrainian people led by m,

charismatic president who rarely use the country and the russian. the russian losses in personnel amount already to half of the number of people they lost enough gone. his son. that is the soviet union over 10 years. they have totally miscalculated the logistics. this is not working because the wall last much longer than they're putting the thought and he is so so alone and does not allow other people to advise him. of course 11 cannot, cannot, no one cannot guess how this will continue, but i think it is already clear that he will not win this wall. and that is why he now has started to,

to make cities like mario bone look like starting to look like a level and cause me and the church and wall. so what do you think could possibly be an exit strategy? because obviously, mr. potent is, is adamant to allow this war to grind on what could possibly stop this war. one thing that still could stop this law would be capital ation of the ukrainian people. and then ukraine, a country of over 40000000. and people who is national movement was already crushed in the 19th century by russia again and again. then this people in this country would cease to exist. that is a way to end the war. and that is why the resistance air goes on and becomes more

powerful, and that is why we in the west should do everything to, to strengthen the defense capability of ukraine to the other ways, of course, would be a settlement, negotiate to negotiated and to the wall but that would mean that russia at last then to jean would have lost his face. but i think already by this convoy of cit, more than 60 kilometers, which is, has been standing in the open for days and all without advancing very much is already such a tremendous loss of face for the russian leadership and then dead. the fallen russian soldiers. he does everything to prevent these things and the

failures to be known in russia, and if you called the wall or wall, then you can go behind it and go to jail for 15 years. said man, no story and retards, general of the german army. thank you. so much for coming on. thank you. and how can people get out as bombs fall all around them? russia now several local sees fires today that would open up humanitarian corridors, but as we've been reporting, it might be too good to be true. let's get a closer look now at all this would use william craft lamp. right. there does seem to be some irony here in russian forces that i've been firing on civilians now saying they are going to be the ones to protect them. and let's look at what the so called humanitarian quarters look like that. the russian military announce today. they said they're going to come out of 4 cities, the capital of keys, the 2nd largest city. hi keith. maria. paula, we've been hearing is completely surrounded,

besieged cut off from the rest of the country, and the city of sue me now from cave. they're saying they would take ukrainian civilians into bel errors into the city of homo, and from hockey and sue me to the russian city of belgrade. and from here, maria paul, just across the border into ross, off on done. now, you might be wondering why would ukrainian civilians bee put their fates into the hands of russian soldiers and be brought to fates on certain in russia and bella, bruce, which are enemies of ukraine. right now, if you're wondering that you're not alone, ukraine's government has called this announcement immoral french president emanuel mac going said it's cynical and hypocritical, especially in light of 2 attempts over the weekend to get civilians out of maria poll. both fail due to suspected russian attacks breaking those local cease fires. now the cities are major population centers and they have been under heavy

bombardment for days. we can see on our next map, when we overlay where the cities are, where the fighting is. you can see it might not look like things have changed much in the last few days, but that's because military analysts say a russian forces are regrouping. they're getting ready for renewed assault on key. if you could see here they're moving in both from the north coming around from the west and also coming across the east trying to surround that city. we've heard of course, maria poll is completely cut off, besieged by sit by russian forces on all sides. heavy bombardment and hard keith. so it is very, very heavy fighting, even as ukraine forces have reportedly been able to beat back some of the advances and are still challenging russia for control of the aerospace now regardless of how these humanitarian quarters worked out, if they hold it all. busy how successful they might be if anybody even takes them up on that offer. the overall picture, as you can see here remains one of sheer terror and all out war. and remember, it is still rather unclear what vladimir putin's ultimate in game is.

i was, why am western the ukraine has remained relatively safe so far, but the heaviest fighting, concentrated in other parts of the country. but ukraine's defense forces are preparing for a possible russian attack. locals are worried about what might happen if the war reaches their doorstep. did abuse alan of anom reports. ah, a chick point on the outskirts of lieut. skin northwestern ukraine, sasha, by rhoda, is one of the local fighters who have joined ukraine's defense forces. he tells me that morale among the troops remains high. despite the dire situation in the country, little speed remembered about the moment. it is calm here. solomon, we are preparing the defense of looks on the region with everything we have horrible were employed at the same time, were helping those who volunteer to join the army. i'm deployed to the front in the east and to defend our ukraine, your call that of oregon national,

where you live still seems to go on here in western ukraine despite the heavy fighting that it's taking place in other parts of the country. and yet residents tell us, they want to be ready for whatever might come next at the beginning of its invasion, russia targeted and irv heels not far from the city. the military airport in loads with one of the 1st facilities hit by russian matthias in ukraine. since stan, it's been relatively quiet here in the region, but people are scared that it's just a matter of time before the war comes here. oh, they seek comfort through prayers in the local church. the sermon that they urges to church goers to forgive those who have done them wrong. oh, this is a truly christian message. father roman tells me, but one that it's so hard to follow right now. you will,

i wish i had never seen that day that she had died before you was. it's really hard to keep living outside the church valentina receives at lessing for a safe journey. she's not in good health and wants to leave for neighbouring poland . deliciously so hard to leave. of course. yes, heartily. my children are my grandchildren. here you think she goes with a heavy heart. what seems to be hopeful? ukraine will prevail. she says russia has back the un nuclear watch. dogs plant is set up a 3 way meeting with ukraine, aimed at ensuring the safety of ukraine's nuclear power plants. russia has agreed to the talks and principal, but not to the suggested location at chernobyl. on last week, a building at ukraine's biggest nuclear facilities caught fire after russia

launched an attack on the premises. russia forces now control the plant with ukrainian staff, working under their orders and the director of the international atomic energy agency f. a. l. grossi stressed the urgency of holding talks. there is no way i say, i said it to day a week. we should not be losing time. almost every day. there is a new episode. the episode last friday, on the as up, what was it? nuclear power plant was extreme perhaps, but there are some other episodes which indicate that we need to have an agree clear their framework of what it is supposed to be to be. thus on joining us now from vienna is go on, who had sent over. she is a nuclear non proliferation and disarmament specialists. thank you so much for your time. we heard and we understand that communication was disrupted on sunday at the

ukrainian power plant there was seized by russian forces. what more do you know about the situation? no, thank you. and me, what do we know mostly from the agency which is receiving information from the great regulator. so they reported that russian forces had switched off to some of the mobile networks and internet connection, which city really complicated, the ability off our plan staff to communicate with the regulator and the i a has expressed a particular concern situation led to supporting indicates that mobile phone communication is still on, but there are some quality issues. so not all of the information that needs to be communicated between the plant and regulator is getting. now we are understanding that a 3rd plant is under threat. what's rushes motive behind seizing another power plant? well,

russia waging war on the tire country taking territory. so wow, power plants happened to be located there and you know, kinds of a very large piece on the program. that's basically, i think it's just part of the taking territory process. another aspect. however, if you look at our plans are critical infrastructure objects are implications for tricity supply for the country. 50 percent of all to city ukraine is generated by nuclear power. so of course, it becomes strategically important to occupy this statistically important. how worried are you that security protocols are not being followed in that the situation could potentially get out of hand off what we know the staff of nuclear power plants in ukraine remains at work and they are doing the best they can under the, under the circumstances to maintain all the safety, safety procedures. but of course it's, it's a very stressful,

very serious and dangerous situation. a law class that has been working without changing shifts and that's, that's creating additional risks on the brighter side to report that indicates that the staff is able to rotate. but there are issues with communication . there are issues with food supply are not to mention the overall situation of being too often aggressive and my final, they're doing what they can, but it's just a very, very difficult situation. indeed, as your outline there has been nuclear signaling by the kremlin. what you make of that a by nucleus signals, i know they issued some completely basis accusations of ukraine, allegedly pursuing it or building the capacity to acquire nuclear weapons. absolutely not since accusation in that regard. us. they have also said that

ukraine with a critical facility in hospice and blame it on russia, where s reporting from from the regulator indicates that the russian forces have attacked deliberately or as part of generally showing the city of pocket and neutral source facility at the nuclear research center at the hopkins institute. so it's i wasn't sure what machine is doing other than trying to escalate its misinformation war and indicate that somehow they have some justification and in the aggression that they want to great. and they're not, they're not providing any proof to back it up and it's not, it's not something that i would take it says, go on. what's the nova is a nuclear nonproliferation and disarmament? a specialist talking to us from vienna. thank you so much for your time. thank you
