been living for decades was shelled over night. cool, this is it one we're in another small one and a kitchen. that's what it was. it was 5 a m, when a shell hit the house with the heat. there was a loud bang and then immediately, atheist, some kind of white snake looked back in the eyes and the throat of the door. and then i had the fire fighters in the corridor saying yes, don't go out in the staircase is gone it yet. so they had me climbed down on a fire fighters ladder with cleaning up some of the debrief. but it's hard to imagine people would 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. yet us laverna is 83 years old. this is the 2nd. it's going to interrupt that report and take you to at nato headquarters where the nato secretary general young stoughton boat is the ag giving a press conference ahead of tomorrow's extraordinary meeting of nato defense ministers and destruction every day. it has shocked the world unshaken. the national order for months we have exposed russia's long list of lies. they claimed they did not plan to invade ukraine, but they did. they claim that they were withdrawing their troops. but the sent in even more. they claim to be protecting civilians. but they are

killing civilians. now they are making absorbed claims about biological labs and chemical weapons in ukraine. this is just an old ally. and we are concerned that moscow could stage a false flag operation, possibly including chemical weapons. they are crane and people are fight thing bravely, defending their homes and their future and we must support them to morrow. we will be joined by their crenan defense minister lexi. this the gov and our older partners, georgia, finan, sweden, on the european union. the whole world has condemned this senseless wall. were wor, nato allies,

the opinion on other countries have introduced unfair and the sanctions on russia. for many years, nato allies of trained 10, so thousands of ukrainian troops. many of them are now fighting on the frontlines. allies also provided significant quantities of critical equipment including anti tank and air defense weapons jones. i'm a nation on fuel these training and the equipment is helping crane to defend itself. ukraine has the for the month, the right to self defense and shrine in the you and shorter and they to allies and partners will continue to help ukraine a pulled out rights by providing military equipment and financial on humanitarian assistance. natal score tolorisk is to protect

and defend all analysts. we have responded to this crisis. quickly. act the way thing our the fence, dance, racing. i'll redness and deploy the nato response force for the 1st time for collective the fence. there are now hundreds of thousands of forces song heightened the lurch across the lines. one 100000 us troops in europe and their own 40000 troops on the dialect. nathan command mostly in the eastern part of the alliance, backed by major air and naval power. as well as air defenses, the u. s. is currently deploy painted mattress to poland and germany and the netherlands are also deploying patriots to slaughter all of this sense

an unmistakable message, an attack on won't i'll, i will be met with a decisive response from the whole alliance rush shelves, invasion of ukraine and its military integration beller, us crates and use security reality on the european continent. so we need to reset nate those minute, our posture for this new reality. to morrow ministers was thought an important discussion on concrete measures to re enforce our security for the longer term in all domains online. this could include substantially more forces in the east on part over the alliance at higher edna's and with more prepositioned equipments. the rules are consider major increases to our air and naval deployments, strengthening our integrated air on missile defense,

reinforcing our cyber defenses. on holding more and larger exercises, i expect we will toss can aid those military commanders to develop options for our madrid summit in june. major reinforcements, our defense will require major increases in investment. i welcome to germany and all the allies have all the did and noun stair stepping up. and i encourage all allies to spend the minimum 2 percent o g d p on the fence. we must do more, so must also invest more to protect peace and freedom and uphold our values at this critical time. i mean that i'm ready to take your questions. okay, we thought it says he and then

thank you. i'm wondering whether you can say whether the nato alliance has seen evidence that china has been providing out russia with any kind of assistance that would help it on the battlefield. whether that military equipment or m. r e z at food for troops. anything of that kind and also out with regard to the situation that we saw earlier this week with russia, i targeting a military base very close to poland border. i'm wondering what you can say about the kind of red lines and whether there would be any kind of consequences. if a missile, for example, were accidentally to enter nato territory or on purpose. thank you. so natal core responsibility, our main, the responsibility is to protect on the found the, all a ne dollar's. so 1000000000 people in 3rd to different countries and to ensure that we also do doubt do that. so now in a more dangerous security situation in europe, or caused by the invasion of ukraine by russia,

and we have increased the presence in these don portal, the lions, we have increase the redness o troops on we are deploying more capabilities, especially to these them portals so an attack on will not ally will trigger to response with the whole alliance. and we are there to protect on the event every in shall nato, ala, the territory. and when we see more military activities, when we see actually fighting, going on close to native borders, there's always, there is, for instance and accidents. and therefore we have to make sure every effort to prevent such incidents and accidents. and if they happen to make sure that the don't spied out of control and create really dangerous situations, and we are very closely monitoring our space or, and the, and the, the border areas around natal. and our military commanders also have the lines to the russian commanders to help to prevent instance and accidents on the house to

prevent them from spine, our spine, alto, control, if they happen on china, the china should join the rest of the world condemning strongly. the brutal invasion of ukraine by russia, ah, or any support to russia, military support and the other type of support will actually help brush our conduct a brutal war against an independent sovereign nation ukraine. and to help them to continue to wage war which is causing death, her suffering, and her an enormous amount of destruction. i saw a china house, an obligation as a member of the un security council actually support an uphold international law. on the rush invasion over over ukraine is

a blatant violation of international law. so we call on rochelle to clearly condemn, ah, the invasion and of course, not support or russia. and we are closely monitoring any and as signs of support from or channel to, to russia, to get to the national le, easy train over then of municipal court national news as an seo ukraine, sick as gel and nato cuba glorious a story of supporting as some countries and preventing bloodshed, for example, like it happened a now sir, i a boy and girl. so and so on. bob, what is it fresh, rolled forward nato. ah, been a, the russian killing. so we'll, you know, will over combat threshold to nato forward director involvement. and of if this is

short term follow up because of that, if you follow the russian rhetorics, they're not going to store or purely in ukraine. so that the question is, isn't the right time for nato to intervene to defeat and to broke the puddings military machine while in stick in ukraine while waiting. and now the russian bombs will be falling to the european capitals. thank you. nato allies have supported ukraine for many years, and especially since a russia invade the ukraine for the 1st time back in 2014. on the an $8.00, sir. like united kingdom, united states, canada have also helped to chain tens of thousands of ukrainian forces. a special racial forces, older troops, and they are now bravely fighting and under seas thing the invading russian forces on i think this support over many years have proven, extremely important. ah,

in strengthening the ukrainian armed forces. and ukraine armed forces are much bigger, much stronger, much better equipped much, but the train now done in 2014. and i'm glad that nate dallas help to achieve that with the training and with the equipment. then of course, it's 1st and foremost a courage of the ukranian on forces on the ukraine, the people under kind of political leadership that us us actually enabled them to fight back here to slow down to resist. the brutalization are conducted by the russian federation on the, on which is a responsibility president putin on it is pressed and to, to news responsible for this war. he can end this war. now withdraw all his troops now, and then engage in good faith in a, in a political eiffel to find a diplomatic and solutions we're calling on pressed into it into do exactly. and

that i am a then naples ukraine is. so is a highly valued, a partner with which we have supported and continue to support on allah's. also stepping up support partner with military equipment and partner with a financial support to an attorney support. but also by imposing the sanctions, which is a forcing a which actually clip bring russian economy our, our, our responsibility as the lions is to protect an undefined all alice on. we are sending a clear message at the we ordered to do so by increasing the presence in the eastern part of the lines. but again, it is russia and preston putin that are responsible for invasion of ukraine and the oppressed and fruits and should end the senses war by withdrawing its forces from ukraine. okay, political. thank you. i'm the listen political. i'm why do the usaa nato

insist that at fighter jets won't be helpful for him? crane when the ukrainians themselves say otherwise, seem to be up to the ukrainian authorities to say what would be helpful for them. and kim nato allies are providing many different types of equipment, including advanced air defense systems, which i've actually helped her through crane is to shoot down a, a russian planes russian a, me signs on the alice continued to provide a support. also, when it comes to a different type, sofa air defense systems. but i'm not going through the details of every time for a supply, every type of support. exactly how and where. because i think that will just make it harder and more difficult to continue to pry this type of support. and we are an angel as are, are stepping up and providing also advanced air defense systems fusion.

thank you, dan michael's wall street journal to follow up on the earlier question. there have apparently been a u. a. v incursions into nato aerospace, apparently wine russian drone entered and left polish aerospace and another one crashed in ne, in nato territory. ok, how do you determine when something like that is an act of aggression or an act that warrants response? and you were talking earlier about escalation, you know, how do you ensure that something like that? so we're watching their press conference. i had of tomorrow's extraordinary meeting of nato defense ministers. i given that by nature secretary general again, stoughton, but he was awesome. at some point, pointed to

a question. second question from the ukranian journalist, asking about the threshold for nature to intervene in ukraine as it has done in cost of a sultan book, didn't answer that directly, although he did say that nato allies are providing a lots of support. so that's what's happening today. and then as a tomorrow will be that meeting of nato defense ministers. let's take a look at what else is happening today in ukraine. authorities that say they are determined to open 9. excuse me. i will go to what will. all right, so officials in war so say the prime ministers of poland, lavinia, and the czech republic of cross the border into you crate. the 3 leaders are having for keith, traveling by train and assign support for your training government. and the statement released by the polish government check prime minister. petra fiala said the purpose of the visit is to confirm the unequivocal support of the entire

european union for the sovereignty and independence of you cray elsewhere. ukrainian or, sorry, say that the sermon to open 9 humanitarian corridors to allow civilians to be evacuated, visuals in the besieged city of mario paul. say some 2000 civilian cars already of after long one evacuation route. authorities are also hoping to get aid to people inside the city. my situation is becoming increasingly desperate. in a 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 bassetti under siege. by russian forces, when i want the after i knew 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, like your heavy sheylan has destroyed homes, supermarkets, him hospitals, and mario paul residents have been without food, water, and electricity. more than 2000 people have died here since the war began. it will be done is that will responsibility for the war crimes of the russian military. it is inevitable. soon as his ward for the deliberate humanitarian catastrophe in ukrainian citizen, the whole world please. what is happening, mary? of all it all 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 aide convoy trying to reach the city is reportedly blocked by russian forces. this footage was released by the russian defense ministry. they say 200 buses have been prepared for the evacuation of mario pole, residence and aid is on its way. i'll be reduced one of your only new car convoys with humanitarian cargo were promptly formed and immediately sent you. the 1st convoy has already arrived and murray, your paul, and delivered 450 tons of medical supplies, essentials, and food, including baby food would be going at their mercy for information. not a w is unable to verify, lead, you know, remember her deal simple. you know. meanwhile, fighting on the ground shows no sign of abating and

dissenting journalists have stormed the sat of russia's most watched evening, new show, holding up an anti war sign. his act happened in moscow on monday when marina of santa cova, an editor at the state control outlet channel, one is clearly visible behind the anchor before the broadcast cut away from the studio. opposed to read no war, stop the war. now, don't believe the propaganda. they are lying to you here. subtle, the germans, suzanne, detained, and human rights activists say they've been unable to get in touch with her before her arrest miss of the, on a covert released a video statement explaining her actions in the last years. unfortunately, i've 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 t v. 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 of albany. 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 upon it. bravo beast! and let's get more on this from the w corresponding to emily show, and who was based in moscow bureau on. so the russian government closed it down a welcome. emily, let's start with marina of santa cobra, who is she? while she's an editor at russia's 1st channel, which is one of the main us state tv channels. we don't currently know where she is . it seems that she's been detained. a lawyers from a well known human rights law collective have been trying to get in touch with her and find her find out more. one of them has just announced that it seems that her case is actually already being heard at a court at the moment. it seems that it's just an administrative case rather than a criminal case. initially, there were some fears that she could be no accused under this new law which was passed a quite recently since the war began. which means that essentially if you spread

fakes or you go whatever the russian government deemed to be fakes about the war are about russian soldiers. and you can be put away for 15 years. so it seems that that isn't what's happening with marina of seneca, but we don't know. and in russia, you know, this could just be the beginning. this could be either leniency or this could be the beginning of several cases. and ryder, i'm, we bring the hearing right from the start of this war that russians are not getting the full picture is, are changing now. well, i would say no, and i think it's even getting harder to get information. and it's kind of interesting to point out as well, that even critical media reporting about that a storming of state t v. yesterday, we're having to blurred the sign that muddy enough sank of a use because it said the world, the word war. and according to russian officials, this is of russian. this is a special operation in ukraine, not a war. and journalists are not supposed to refer to it as a war. i'm and it's getting in general harder, i think,

to get independent information within russia. many independent media outlets have been closed down or blocked within a, in the last few weeks. d, w is blocked within russia, the bbc, various international media outlets. facebook is blocked. instagram as blocks, you know, the list goes on. and i think there's a lot of fear as well within a russian society. and that's something that the authorities are trying to spread as well. there's been reports that even people, you know, in mosque are being stopped by police to have their phones checked to see that they're not writing about the war even to their friends. you know, and the older generation who do watched a tv, people are saying, you know, within ukraine that they're trying to talk to their older relatives for a, for example, about what's happening about the fact that they're being bombed and their relatives don't believe not only should formally over dw, most good, thank you to about it. show up today. tell
