ukrainian army chiefs as russian troops are preparing to stolen the capital. a warning this report contains images, some views may find distressing. the people of european just outside key of our leaving their city has become the latest front line. moved on us, there's a huge column right now around $200.00 men up to 50 light armored vehicles. several tanks, literally 2 kilometers from here on the main street of your pain. after negotiations for a safe evacuation route out of european failed, many of the city's inhabitants decided to flee to the capital. europeans mayor said 8 civilians were killed on sunday alone. many are angry at the west for not stepping in to tell the whole world that they should help. why aren't they helping the americans and the british?

where are the plains shout to the world, get every one to help france germany, britain should help you. yeah. to live with guy, far to the east of give and ukraine's 2nd largest city her give. the emergency hospital is full of wounded civilians. most of us is on the 25th. we were shell to my brother and i came to get blood and were shelled. the blood transfusion center was shelled. we had just left the center and we were shell by rushing occupier. a bond this year more brought. my mother died the next day and i remained at hospital as shrapnel wounds in my legs, so i was so so really caught in your patience can hear the bombs outside as russian artillery and air strikes. rain, deadly munitions on her keith here to another appeal to the rest of the world to intervene. yellowstone was begging the whole of society, say, please get together and help to close the skies over ukraine,

but help our military, save our civilian something 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 under way, 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 a quite a lot of forces to defend the capital. we haven't seen the russian lines advancing

in days or the sites of fighting was just saw. your pin are in this report. the sights of fighting are still the same and her we are seeing any are significant advances. of course, there is always the fear that russia might regroup and try to storm the capital. people here in the capitol. i have prepared the, there's a lot of military industries, road blocks, et cetera. 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 do not to stay out too long. if you, the 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

fleeing other? 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 the suburbs of key if i'm there. but to marie opa 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 who get out of the city or to bring goods and, and relief a gets into the city a have failed so far. so this is definitely one of the places where a help is bitterly needed. harkins is another one. as we have seen, i think her better 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 try 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 cities, 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. um 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 his burger. thank you very much, reporting from here in u. k. and from keith,

i'm joined by in his office and a member of their ukrainian parliament. welcome to d. w. in a week last spoke to you a week ago. how has your personal situation changed? while i was saying the last i was father, i think that i was staying with some friends in the city of cave, but they decided to leave the city. so i actually have had to more to some other friends who live and not in the state of a close to the city and gave region because well, like many other people, my friends decided to leave because it is not safe to say the city. the go, sir, everyone have seen the what pression to do in, in a neighboring city philippine that is just the genocide. them shooting at the people with the children who are trying to be evacuated is just unthinkable. so i think now many civilians in key when a directly engaged in and into any activities of one of the infrastructure or

directly involved in the defense of the city. i tried to escape so that not to be held hostages in the city as, as people have been right now. so my birth authentication has changed a bit because i still can't leave it. i can stay in my own place. it's too, too many flows up. so i just can't, so i was, i had to look for another place to, to stay and that's my friends. so now are the friends, live in close to cave, but not in the city itself. and, and so many people have to move so many people can be living in their houses. so many people are trying to escape the city right now, just because we are seeing that the russians doing everything possible to get into the city. we really appreciate and we pray for food for the health and well being of the ukrainian army who are doing unthinkable in terms of preventing them from entering the city. but what they're doing right now the russians doing is just it's an comprehensible window now that they were given direct order to open fire and

civilians. apparently they're doing that because they can't proceed militarily the country defeat ukrainian army crenan army is actually pushing them back from the position that the 1st hold make it around the city of how to give you training. i mean, did push them further from the city of how to give in. michel live there trying to get into the city of mac alive, but the city is fighting back. so harsh and actually is bush and russians further. so it ukrainian armies doing unbelievably well in those terms. and because of that, they decide they will target the city lance. so now many civilians in the city i trying to escape so that not to create the additional burden for the ukrainian army so that the ukrainian army comes on concentrate on the main job which is killing russians and fighting them and not being distracted by predict and civilians to an extent to which it is possible overall. it could you tell me about the russians announcement of these humanitarian corridors sort of thing. how,

how credible they and how safe are they for people to use? it's a well, the world needs to accept that every time russians are opening up their mouth, they about to tell a lie that had been lying about those humanitarian corridors in multiple they did promise humanitarian corridors and then they did that then the most cruel thing imaginable. they sat up landmines in the place where people were supposed to gather to leave. and those were mainly women who st. small children. it's actually a great lag that they crane and i'm learned about that. literally men, as before, they were about to blow up those land mines and managed to move the people away from, from, from that spot. and in it being 2 days ago, they did promise a humanitarian quarter of people who said in shelters in basements for, for a week. and that he had promised that. and then they opened fire on those people. and it was right in that post on facebook by a man who was saying that and, and, and i'm quoting and that her so it won't flow into our direction. and then i saw it

to my kids up in the air, very high so high that it seems they were higher than that. this is church nearby. and now they're both dead. and his wife was wounded and she was taken to the hospital and she died several hours after that. this is what they're doing. they concept proceed militarily the come to be fight in ukrainian army just because it is so strong, so well motivated and so professional. so their target in the city lance, so no, we can trust anything. they're saying right now, even the open human tarried corridors, we accept as a norm that they will try to open fire on people in that corridor. that is what they have been doing so far. so we just kind of trust them and not, no, no one should be trust in them. now, you know, on this a international women's day, what, what's your message to the women of you crated during this war? have one and only the message is to stay strong and to continue doing what they're

doing because with all the efforts, the joint efforts of the whole of the cranium society, we did manage to stand up to put in as much as we did before. and i know women was indifferent, but many women taken care of the kids and just creating them to other countries. i've been talking to some of those women and they do feel the guilt that they left the country. no one should be, feel the guilt except for, for russians. right now. oh though i am not earth think, i don't think that they are capable of that feeling. i'm extremely proud of the pain in women. and i know that the only thing that ukraine and women want right now is to be able to get back home to go back to their lives and to continue leaving their lives as it was 2 weeks ago. but in order for that to happen, we doing it's of what from the west. we do need support so badly because we wouldn't be able to, to go back to our lives, to rebuild in our country. if the west will continue to trade with russia. i'm, i'm talking to you now and i'm asking everyone who's listening to this. please, please,

please stop any trade with russia right now. any worse of phasing out her of slow phasing out of rush and gas and oil, and comprehensible to me, unsinkable and they, i, betrayal of everything. the west stands for any euro that goes to russia right now is being used to buy weapons with which they will be killing ukrainian, children and women. so we ask for a full embark on behalf of all the women who kind of old people here in ukraine on behalf of our children. and then of course, we ask for support from here because they just been biding oh cities. they're killing our civilians. in great numbers, i just took pictures from summer to day. there are several casualties among children. again, because of the of ation hit. they set up the warm from air and we can't really defend ourselves against that. so we ask for support from air because otherwise, no matter how brave ukrainian men and women are, no matter to what extent they go to,
