[000:00:00;00] ah, ah ah, this is d w. he's live from berlin, no relief for the paypal of ukraine. russian forces a keeping off their attacks across the country. we report on the truck not traumatic situation in the besieged city of mario hall, where residents are running out of food and water, and many thousands remain trapped. also coming up with, i feel very bad. i'm tired, my head hurts badly. why do i have to leave through this?

i just want some rest. we hear from an 82 year old woman in cave whose home was destroyed in a rush, an air strike, plus an unusual act of defiance. a russian journalist protest, her country's war in ukraine live on the state, run the tv news. ah, i'm rebecca writ is welcome to the program. people in ukraine are facing another day of war and fear strikes on residential areas in the capital caves killed at least 2 people this morning. the city is now completely surrounded by russian forces elsewhere, ukrainian or authority say they're determined to open 9 humanitarian corridors, to allow civilians to be evacuated there. also hoping to be able to deliver aid to the besieged city of mary paul,

where the situation is becoming increasingly desperate. in the matter of seconds, they have to run for their lives. and then the bombardment begins with this is what life looks like. and mario paul, a city under siege by russian forces. new. when i'm on the out for you, we have no information at all. we know nothing. it looks like we are living in a deep forest that should have told us something, at least about what's going on and where i thought heavy sheylan has destroyed homes. supermarkets in hospitals and mario poll. residents have been without food, water,

and electricity. more than 2000 people have died here since the war began. i mean, it will be done is it will responsibility for the war crimes of the russian military . it is inevitable. as soon as his war for the deliberate humanitarian catastrophe in ukrainian citizen, the whole world please. what is happening, murray? your quality will bully, fitted from above shows the scale of destruction across the city, which is completely surrounded by russian forces. on monday, a 1st convoy of civilians was able to escape mario paul, the 1st evacuation in 2 weeks of russian bombardment. but an 8 convoy trying to reach the city is reportedly blocked by russian forces. this footage was released by the russian defense ministry. they say 200 bosses have been prepared for the evacuation of mario pulled residence. and aid is on its way. i'll do that, you know,

sort of your only new car convoys with humanitarian cargo were promptly formed and immediately sent you. the 1st convoy has already arrived and mary jo paul and delivered 450 tons of medical supplies, essentials, and food, including baby food, going at their little information, not in w is on able to verify lead, you know, remember her deals him were, you know, i mean while fighting on the ground shows no sign of abating a short while ago i spoke to dad heavily correspond him at his bidding a in cave and asked him how risky it was for those people playing mary paul. and while that says about how desperate desperate their situation has become, well, what we've seen these people is 160 cars that have escaped. they used the humanitarian corridor and her and it was possible to escape because the cecil filed for some time. but then shelling began again at think it would be very difficult to get out of the city without any

a corridor without any agreement right now. because this, it is completely surrounded and fighting has been going on around the, around the city. now the situation in there is dire, it's been more than 10 days that people have had no food, no water, no medicine job, no electricity. we also have was barza scars information from there because mostly the phones are down or the mobile network. so it's a, it's a very dire situation and we're hearing that thousands of died already and in keys . and here's where you are. we understand there have been more explosions near the center. can you tell us more about what's happening there? yeah, there was several explosions at night, some of them quite loud. we heard them here and it seems that again, residential buildings have been hit. a 10 story building was on fire and another 9 story building has been hit. also under know,

in the northern part of this city and it seems that russia is intensifying. it's a, it's shelling of the city and it's bombings of the city in the sky has beams had, had been spared. we have to say for some time of heavy bomb beings, after initial, initially some bombs. if you remember the t v tower bomb, the hit, the hit, the city, but then it was a bit calmer. and now this has a resumed, and we have visited one of these buildings, these residential buildings that have been hit by a shell yesterday. yes, love enough helio and incur, has been sitting outside her apartment since the early morning hours. she's waiting for someone to pick her up after the apartment she has been living for decades was shelled over night. cool this is it one way or in another small one and the kitchen. that's what it was. it was 5 am when

a shell hit the house with that he did that there was a loud bang. and then immediately, if he has some kind of white snake vance in the eyes and the threat of the so, and then i had the firefighters in the corridor saying yes, don't go out in the staircase is gone with the heat. yes. so they had me climbed down on a fire fighters ladder that we are. we are at the northern edge of key if and this apartment building was fired upon from outside of the city, from the russian positions north of kiff. cleaning up some of the debris. but it's hard to imagine people will ever be able to live here. again. authorities are saying that at least one person died in the attack. any more have lost everything they had. those who can still accessed their property or trying to secure their

belongings. yes, levona is 83 years old. this is the 2nd war she has experienced. her early childhood memories are of world war 2. i feel very bad. i'm tired. my head hurts badly. why do i have to live through this? i just want some rest. good. relative is on his way to pick her up, then she will have to start all over again. it's a heartbreaking story mathias and surely not the only one and now talks between ukraine and russia are resuming today due ukrainians like yours love not in your pace. have anything to hope 40 think well, her,

she has told me that she doesn't understand why it's impossible to find a solution to this but, and that's probably what most people here see because of course, none of them have access to the these talks we have heard the ukrainian side are saying that they are a carefully more optimistic about a possible solution or, or a ceasefire being negotiated as they feel that the russians are looking for a way out that they have miscalculated. but of course, this messaging is also part of the tactics, so we don't really know what we know is that their official positions are very far apart from each other. ukraine wanting to keep it sovereignty and wanting russian troops out of the country. whereas russia, once ukraine to the demilitarized, as they call it, to factually give up, it's a sovereignty and its ability to defend itself. but it is thank you for that matter . spitting out database correspond in case that tend to data, many russia,

analysts, constantine a, get now constantine, we had a little bit there from a t. is that from what you're hearing, how the talks going from the russian perspective. well, i think that the russian perspective is very much dependent and one man brought him approaching and we do not have an indication that his any plans to change these plans are all slots on new crime. however, i think the fact that at least some humanitarian, cory doors were left on harass during the previous day, shows that there is basically a desire to well show some flexibility of extent to which that was ordered by put in or was the initiative the local come on those remains to be seen, my suspicion will be that there is a certain exhaustion among the russian troops. and among actually the commanders who see that they are going nowhere with this campaign. and so i suppose that what

we see is a general how should i put it this centralization of command in ukraine? that usually means that local commanders will take the initiative and do things that job that may be another 2nd thought they will do. definitely that quite a bit of steam is out of this invasion cause and a loss, not a journalist with the countries statement, bro costa stormed the minute program and she was holding a sign that read. no, it was stop the war. don't believe the propaganda lying to you here. she was quickly arrested and she hasn't been reachable seems before she was arrested, he posted a video on social media. let's take a listen to what she said. in the last years, unfortunately, i have been working with kremlin propaganda on channel one, and i feel very much ashamed of that. i am very ashamed that i allowed such lies on tv. i allowed the brainwashing of the russian people, we did not say anything in 2014. when it all started,

we did not take to the streets and protests when the kremlin poison lavadini. we silently watched this inhumane regime. and now the entire world has turned away from us. 10 more future generations won't wash out the shame of this fratricidal war of rubies and truly courageous act, given that the harsh punishments. constantine we've been hearing from day one of this invasion that russians just aren't getting the full picture of this war. is that changing now? well i think as far as the state media is concerned, no, the nothing changed the tool and this action is very brave. actually have to say that in 1900 seconds video. mr. john, you go. that's an a. she pressed all the right buttons. i think it was such a political, it's a think message that actually lots of russian politicians got. com formulated. that's all i suppose that though this shows that there,

there is definitely something bubbling under. and i think that lots of people are getting 2nd thoughts. now, i don't know when it's going to burst into the open box, as is usually in russian history, there is always some events which seems to be completely irrelevant. that provokes a novel off political collapse. and this is what may happen in such circumstances. and i suppose that lots of people now having 2nd thoughts, including by the way, the top just just around the time that this a courageous produce and stay to the stage direction. another pool, my high level functionary, deputy prime minister more cottage, was kind of the head of the international just federation made an interesting statements to statement to him during the american website. mother jones, which said he is the ukranian people to be russian. people. war is horrible. basically, it was a very mild message, he's a former state bureaucrats, but still he is in russia. he's a full,

high state state functionary and even he seems to start disagreeing. i suppose. my suspicion rebecca will be hearing more such words is probably initially quite cautious in the coming in the coming days. my experience of 989991 shows that this does not happen like like like a snap playing. it goes on for some time before it becomes something more acceptable. let's probably hope that i constantine. thank you very much for that constantine. it has a look at some other developments in the ukraine conflict. un secretary general antonio terrace has warned over the potential for nuclear war over ukraine. quoterush stated that the prospect of nuclear conflict once on thinkable, is now within the realm of possibility. he urged russia to stop its invasion of ukraine and pursuit diplomacy. instead, ukraine has denied launching a strike on the separatist held city of done yet. scott,

the russia accused of killing 23 civilians. russian officials said ukraine has committed a war crime. ukrainian military spokes person said the rocket was clearly of russian origin. germany has announced its beefing up its air force with dozens of us made f. 35 still fight is they'll be replacing germany's fleet of tornado fight, obama's, which are currently the only plans in the german air force certified to carry nato nuclear weapons. germany's air force commander said roches actions in ukraine left no alternative germany's blunders v. i have been flying these tornado jets for 40 years. they are still operational, albeit aging, but are due to be retired. in 2030 tornadoes allowed germany to fulfill its commitment to nato by delivering american nuclear weapons in case of need. but new

aircraft are now needed. not zach for the to go. but after carefully considering all options on the table, i have decided to start procuring f 35 jets to fulfill our nuclear sharing obligations. implies the heights like the f 35 is considered the most modern fighter jet in the world. it can carry us nuclear weapons and it's design and coding. make it difficult for radar to detect a mistake. i'll hear that. i think we're sending the right signal that we chose in the system that's available on the market to accelerate the modernization about armed forces after which line again could choosing the f 35 should speed up this process. another option is to upgrade the europe made a euro fighter jets, so they to could carry us nuclear weapons. but that would probably take too long. the blender, severe will continue to use and by european fighter jets. but the biggest purchase

will now be of aircraft from the u. s. military experts there on bias as this marks a pivotal change to discuss your over to the recent discussions about defense on a security policy. make clear about the german where you've always wanting to develop something itself may take far too much time. so buying something of the shelf may be the quickest solution. colton mostly darlin, dish, nevada, rosel doff game. co do. with if decision to purchase the f 30 fives germany is embarking on a new path. for now, the buddhist, there is no longer pursuing ambitious development projects and instead buying what's on the market. even if this means greater dependence on the u. s. turkish president rich of tab, irwin has refused to rule out buying weapons from russia. despite past criticism from other nato members. speaking out to talk with german chancellor, olaf sholtes in ankara oto uncalled for a cease fire in ukraine and said turkey would continue providing humanitarian

support. the target president has tried to maintain his country's relations with both cave and moscow. but turkey's last purchase of russian arms prompted the sanctions from the u. s. in december 2020 humidity over and it's been political correspond hands, bronze hands, give us a brief summary of the talks. what stood out for you. well, as we've just heard a normal times, it was this would have been a simple inaugural meeting between the new german chancellor shots, who for the 1st time went to turkey as chancellor, 2 visits of tire tire of our dog on the president there. they would have been talking about the large gym and the large turkish community in germany about turkish interests in germany. they would have talked about human rights issues. germany criticizes the human rights situation in turkey. repeatedly, they would have talked about the situation of syrian refugees and turkey that on millions of those and took as in playing

a very important role in accommodating them, has been given huge financial aid by the european union. to do that, all of these normal issues would have dominated talks, but now under these circumstances, not normal circumstances. the talk to it dominated by the war and ukraine and questions on how to deal with that. the germany and turkey agree on how to deal with the kremlin. there were a couple of points on which they certainly agreed. the 1st was that both leaders said that a cease fire was urgently needed and ukraine and that they were trying to promote that. the 2nd issue on which they agreed and which of shots of german songs specifically mentioned, is that turkey recently closed access to the black sea from the mediterranean. that has that narrow stretch is controlled by turkey. and it has not closed access to warships,

but from both sides of this conflict into the black sea. that was something that on shore specifically mentioned and praised turkey for beyond that, there are a lot of questions that are open. certainly, turkey has some influence in russia. there is a certain closeness between letting me put in and added on. both leaders are autocratic by nature. one might say they haven't ta paws had the disagreements, but turkey has very close relations to russia. in terms of the gas supplies, in terms of tourists, from russia that come to turkey in terms of supplies of wheat. so there is still an open channel between russia and turkey, almost in the little way. turkey is not participating in sanctions against russia at the moment. and if in russia you want to take a plane at the moment, turkey is one of the places that you can actually still go to. turkey positioning itself will definitely seeing itself as a mediator between potent and the west. how much influence can turkey as

a nato member really have almost go? yes, a note, a membership might be an advantage or a disadvantage. in these talks. turkey is a very difficult member of nato, for instance, that has bought a huge weapon system, anti aircraft system from russia against the will of its narrative partners. so this all put, took it in a certain position of influence on both sides. but there obviously are lots of other strands of negotiations going on. the is ready, prime minister, for instance, is also trying to negotiate and all of sholtes and the french president amount of the craw also constantly talking to protein. so order these strands of diplomacy have to be combined in some sense and certainly turkey can play a significant road and all that scenario. the w political correspondent hands, brant, thanks very much for that. the white house says high ranking us and chinese officials have held 7 hours of intense talks on the fighting in ukraine. in the meeting in rome,

the us raised concerns about china as possible support to russia following its invasion, white house press secretary density said the chinese side was war. they will be consequences if it provides assistance to moscow. what we had conveyed in what was conveyed by our national security advisor in this meeting is that, should they provide military or other assistance that of course violate sanctions or, or supports the war effort that there will be a significant consequences. but in terms of what the specifics look like, we would coordinate with our partners and allies to make that determination. as turn out to some other stories making news around the world. nearly 30000000 people are under locked down across china, mid a state increase in the number of cove at 19 cases. the current wave of infections is the country's worst. since the pandemic began. local authorities blame the highly transmissible army chrome variance and have been responding with quarantines

and travel restrictions. maritime agencies are working to re float a cargo ship stuck off the u. s. east coast. the vessel is run by evergreen. the same company who's contain a ship blocked the suez canal last year disrupting one of the world's busiest shipping routes. there are no initial reports of injuries, pollution, or damage to the vessel. the court in the indian state of karnataka has held a ban on wearing the, his job in schools and colleges uphill to the ban. rather, the judge ruled that wearing the head scarf was not an essential religious practice of islam. the ban last month, spunk protests, and counter protests that spread nationwide. russia's invasion of ukraine has had a devastating impact on people's lives and livelihoods, including on athletes in the region. when fighting started sporting events, such as professional football matches were cancelled. and that, that left many players and their families without any income. now

a hungarian tame close to the border with ukraine has stepped in to raise funds and help refugees. data bodies aren't soci reports. the town of kish florida in northeastern hungary population. $15000.00, quiet, rural and football mad. it's professional. team kish barta. f. c is also sensitive to world events. ukraine is just a 20 minute drive away. almost a 3rd of the players on the team are from there. the club sports director and owner artillery. this also works with the football academy in ukraine when the war started re, they began a donation drive to support ukrainian footballers and their families. non perishable goods are continuously being dropped off at the clubs gift shop by supporters. and on top of that, about 10000 euros have been raised so far to help the families of more than 70

players as of basic, got that at the legacy as elevated. i think them this money is just temporary health, but they weren't so of all the problems in life is just make things a little bit better and easier figured she'd let me go. but for us it's the right way to go. what the real help is when we get money, donation is that can be passed on to them or this small financial aid that they can get the hands on or in certain cases can use to make it over here. money is because of the money we collected, that they could do them. they base after visiting football officials in ukraine also asked the hungarian professional players association to pitch in which it did . the organization wrote a letter to all professional clubs to do their part to. many are either by helping support the families of their own ukrainian players or by sending off shipments of goods. as for kish barges ukrainian players, they are devastated because of the war. one is goalkeeper auction audience of both
