say, please get together and help to close the skies over ukraine, but help our military save our civilians doing good and i must have it. but at the moment, nato has decided not to close the air space. citing the risk of starting a much larger war with russia. people here holding on, but it is unclear what will remain of their city if russian bombardment continues at this rate. jo, now by our correspond, but he has bowinger in the ukrainian capital. he, if russian army chief say that sir russian troops are preparing to storm the capital. what preparations a you seeing a getting underway? mathias thing. the capital of course, are the people who have known that there have been a prime target from the day from day one. and that russians would eventually try to storm the capital or to close the ring around the capital. so the ukranian military seems to have put in quite

a lot of forces to defend the capital. we haven't seen the russian lines advancing in days or the sites of fighting with just saw your pin are in this report. the sights of fighting are still the same and her we aren't seeing any significant advances. of course, there is always the fear that russia might regroup and try to storm the capital. people here in the capital, i have prepared the, there's a lot of military industries, road blocks, et cetera. i'm but also many people of course have fled the capital it, as you can see behind me, there are very few people on the streets right now. those whom you see, they try to, to don't not to stay are too long. if you, with most people that you see the either walking a dog or they are carrying groceries or something. so people go out on the street for their, for their needs, but her people don't stay long time on the streets. of course, the situation has been at is tense, here at martinez. what about the dangers of fling as it,

is there any progress on these humanitarian corridors? well, the most sir, the worst place in ukraine probably now is maria paul. although there are other places where the situation is also very bad, we've just so you seen 2 of them in the report, hockey and these suburbs have key if i'm there but to my reopen has been shut off for days now for for more than a for more than a week, so no supplies entering the city infrastructure damage, no water, no electricity. we also have a few messages out of the city due to that lack of electricity. people cannot charge their phones and call their relatives. for example, am and humanitarian corridors. be it that people get out of the city or to bring goods and, and relief a goods into the city. a have failed so far. so this is definitely one of the places where a help is bitterly needed. hockey is another one. as we have seen,

i think a letter to my latest information trains have still been able to leave the city so so so, so people have left, hark if, but it is very difficult to get out of their under constant shelling and with a competitive capacities are very limited of these trains and so there are quite a few places now where suffering is really, really big. now, just how easy or difficult is it to get out of the capital where you are. we've seen some heartbreaking scenes and he has main station. yes, people are trying to leave a still trying to leave the capital. there are trains running we. the station is crowded. it's a lot of people, those who have been able to evacuate from these suburbs where the fighting is going on. they have arrived yesterday at the train station and tried to lead further, but also other people from other suburbs where the russian advance might, might arrive in the, in the, in the next few days or so. it's the,

the suburban train's carrying people to the main station and then from there they're trying to get on any train that goes west to lead, leave at the polish border, was go to that, the slovakian border, or somewhere there. of course, are people here are, are prepared or are fearing that things might get much worse is still in the next few days. and what about food and medicine, things like that, getting through to the city, the cities under siege. while that's the problem, the city is under siege like mar, you pull, which is completely under seizure. those who are a bit hard to reach because of fighting. they are lacking medical supplies, they are lacking a lot of basic supplies. and of course, the situation is very bad also for those who have chronical diseases. for example, it's a, it's a big human tearing disaster with burger. thank you very much for your reporting from. here in western ukraine has
