[000:00:00;00] news this is dw use life from birth in ukrainian president loaded, mr. lansky warns moscow the time for peace talks is now just the time was coming to restore territorial integrity and justice for ukraine. otherwise, russia's cost will be so high that you will not be able to rise again for generations. big. the warning comes amid fears the war could be expanding to west and ukraine,

with brush deploying hypersonic missiles for the 1st time. around public appearance by the russian president vladimir putin praising his troops all carrying out what he calls a mission to denounce a fight ukraine. at a trip of old and 3000 kilometers to safety, a convoy of spanish taxi drivers shuttles over a 100 ukrainian refugees all the way from warsaw to the woman lines of madrid. ah! i've been fooling! welcome. ukrainian president floated mister lensky, has called on russia to take part in immediate talks to stop the war and ukraine. well than 3 weeks after a russian president vladimir putin started the conflict, his military remains locked in, fighting with you, cranium, forces along the eastern edges of the country. moscow is ratcheting up the pressure, saying it has attacked a weapons depot in west and ukraine using

a hypersonic missile. the claim has not been independently verified in a video message, so that he warned that russia would pay a high price if it continued its aggression. yeah, what's a sub man? i want everyone to hear me, especially in moscow in the stuff the time has come to meet to talk a worry, the time has come to restore territorial integrity and justice for ukraine woodley . otherwise rushes causes were so high that you will not be able to rise again for several generations. big a corresponding mathias bowinger is in live in the west. or we just heard the president there tell us more about his message. yeah, i think it's very clear what he means, the damage that is inflicted on russia through sanctions, but also the damage that is inflicted to the russian military has been a really big. and he is basically saying that russia's

plans to invade ukraine to change the head of government to install a puppet government, whatever the plan really was, has failed. and that russia is now in a, in a week position. and it should get to the table to talk. this is of course also part of psychological warfare. but here's the shelling of ukrainian cities continues and russian troops have started launching more attacks in the west, which is where you are. let's take a little look it at this report. ah, emergency sirens in ukraine's western city of levine, russian forces targeted a repair plant for military aircraft and damaged to other buildings. smoke billows over the city that was largely untouched by russian bombing on to now. you don't want to leave the enemy's strike against. this is further proof. the doubt not

fighting. you can troops, were you there fighting the population? my children are women, refugees, nothing is sacred to them. you know, many of the residents feared an attack was a matter of time. you don't wish to serve. i think this war will last a long time. it's possible that this war will become a frozen conflict in some regions of our country cleaners. i'm rosanna e. aaliyah, yet the merchant said, would that be to be rockaway those when it would bumper to darling, marcia vickery will continue bombing our military targets when it was in your, when it was a gibbon booty. and it's also possible that they will target civilian infrastructure here as well. function, mallos, the dog, they can do anything skepticism. i think their goal is to scare us. not that we will not be frightened, touchingly live silicone in the eastern city of caught fire fighters battled ablaze, triggered by russian shelling it targeted one of the biggest shopping centers in ukraine's,

the 2nd largest city and the capital of keith also came under attack. at least one person was killed and several others injured in the neighbourhood of podium. that was like what was named rather now when the key of district wheel crowded. maria was been shelling here we go. room. we see a big funeral is roughly what, what is horrible that near here there is a children's garden and playground on this side. there's a school. ah, she's with several houses have been damaged, looking for warners burden. we can see what condition they are in. the windows are broken and they are no longer put for live video. the besieged city of mario poll remains under constant russian bombardment. president putin says his actions unnecessary to prevent what he calls a genocide in ukraine. a claim dismissed as baseless by leaders around the world. and now the war has reached live to a city that's been seen as a safe haven. but now empty plans are placed in the city square to honor the

children killed in this war. it's the places where people are seeking safety, which continue to be targeted and civilians, a pain, a high price and we know mathias, that thousands of civilians are still trapped in areas where there's heavy fighting underway. what. what about the evacuation efforts? how are they going? it's very different in different places, but still there's, as you said, many people trapped in in places who cannot evacuate. people have been trying to, some of people have been trying to flee. for example, murray over the city that has been besieged for more than 2 weeks. and that is really in, in, in, in, back, in a bad condition as far as water, food and everything is concerned where we have seen reports that even the bodies cannot be buried because of the heavy shelling. some of these people have tried to flee across the fighting while being shelves,

so that shows us that they're really desperate and it's really difficult to evacuate from these places. in other places, the many terry and corridors as, as they are called have worked and people have been able to escape safely. but there's still a lot of people who are trapped. it is what about a piece deal? what sort of concessions would ukraine actually be willing to make? well, of course, they're not playing every concession that they would be willing to make on the table. what they have said, however, would zalinski has said that he would be willing to talk about nature membership, saying that any way he does not see that nature will really take ukraine in. so that would be something to talk about. but the idea that ukraine would really renounce nature may bush membership and limit its army somehow. that's what russia demands is probably not on the table,

because that would make the country very vulnerable for another attack by russia and illusions about any security guarantees that russia might give on paper are very low here. that is spending a thank you very much, reporting for us from live, if they're in the west, if you could. russian president vladimir putin as hell. what is being done to war rally in moscow officially organized to mock 8 years since the russian annexation of crimea, who use the carefully staged event to promote what he called the special operation in ukraine. once again, pushing his narrative, the rush is war of aggression is a mission to read, you kind of not system tens of thousands worth events, but there are reports that many public sector workers were pressured by their employers to attend. so many turned up for the event that they couldn't all fit into the stadium organizers bust in some of the participants urging them to support

the russian army in its so called military operation. the term war is not allowed to be used. oh, let's go to a suburb. our army is liberating. the people fighting the nazis and fascists and the band groups. the civilians, there are happy with their receiving humanitarian aid and are being rescued. hope you protest this isn't against the ukrainians. it's against the fascism there and just like when we fought fascism in europe during the 2nd world war. those forces mom, you wrote the inside the stadium patriotic songs and praise of the soviet union, learning and styling. that's my country. this one goes, referring to ruthless former soviet leaders, ah, then president put into the stage, referring to what he called a genocide of russians in the don bass and naming crimea as part of russia. the speech ran on all channels until the unthinkable occurred. during the put in was cut off mid speech noise. no sir,

would that you shoe in the pop singer was shown again what exactly happened is unclear, but the kremlin said there was a technical problem. put in speech was later repeated this time uninterrupted from tech problems to propaganda efforts are russian. analysts, konstantin, from the exit, joins us from lithuania, constantine button, praises the war as an aerobic mission. a russians actually buying that to do they see a, any sort of heroic aspect to this invasion of ukraine? hello, been the 1st. i want to say, i can't even think come to install thinking about the sate of those who made this quote unquote technical glitch in a rush in town isn't about here is market. every people likes when someone says us, you right?

but i think what once you pay attention to is essentially the responses of the people that, that basically presented or played in this piece. it's as if you are talking to russian tellers. i'm of speaking to people, you're speaking to a tv that they are repeating the same. please share that the rock and up again is putting out all the time 247. and this does impact the mind of the russians, not all, but quite a lot of that. and i think quite a lot of them choose to believe this propaganda. and there's a lot subtle differences between believing sincerely and choosing to go into the comfort zone of believing, saying, well, i mean, the government knows best that i will prefer to. i prefer to believe the governors . i think this is mostly the situation, russian public opinion, although again, i wouldn't lead a lot of public schools into the numbers really because

most of these people are people from they don't enterprises that essentially really boss in there probably where if you came sincerely but basically you also can't organize such a rally so quickly without some kind of state state participation. so i don't think all of them came spontaneously that that's an important thing. i got a safe feeling believing you can believe in your, in your government. but president to lead sky says it's time now for a meeting, it's time to talk is ready because he hasn't really achieved what he sent out to do, has it and that's exactly why he wouldn't want to talk. because talking to the landscape, he's view and he's well, to the extent we know him will be meeting defeat. ah, he was that castigating zelinski as the stooge of the united states, as someone running neo nazi regime. and suddenly he meets him that's. that's

a very told order to field reports, and i think that he still thinks he can achieve more pressuring ukraine by the military means that like that by essentially showing the civilians that's, that's the main kind of type of military operation if you can call it. so in the last few days, i think about coaching is still in place of all he still is running his wharf and he is putting out he has, he has stated his conditions, which are i think on acceptable to, to the ukrainian. i don't think that if his demands are on the boat, what would have to happen to make russia actually? and this was a good question. i don't have the also, i think that tolkien should decide old people around him must convince him

that the situation is so dire that he'd rather told before he actually loses big time. and this time didn't, didn't, didn't. he didn't sort of didn't yet comment. i think that lots of people in, in the previous piece from lead that were saying this rule could become protracted . i think that probably onto something it could become a protracted war which puts in, we'll prosecute for quite some time. it's another matter how the russian probably continue react if one year from now there is still the point. you've got the constant from the w rush over fairs analyst. thank you very much for the analysis. well the situation in the port city of murray also is especially bad. other besieged cities are also seeing major food shortages. there are reports of people in the city of life rating shops for food, a grocery stores and warehouses, and now empty. and the world food program is wanting that food and water supply chains are collapsing due to a lack of security. un,

a convoys have been unable to reach besiege cities. martin flick is the director of the both food programs global office in berlin. we talked to him about the situation in the besieged ukrainian cities and how his organization is trying to help the people trapped inside. we are trying to get access to bring food in her last contribution. how version that need is a humanitarian call. we're delivering to cities, we're not entirely in circles. we have no food stocks or than 3000000 people for 30 days. but we are still waiting and pressing for a very full marino, but it's even possible to get and it stays that the humanitarian part of those have

been problems. and we're still waiting for them. we also see shock waves and so we prices and food prices. as a consequence of green law. we speak 20 percent of the 2021 production of ukraine. we stuck in grain and the global market price for me is going through we have 66 percent higher prices and a year ago and 33 percent we only added since ukraine war stop. so this is directly affecting some of the poorest countries in the world and is pushing families in these countries to us quality and is a look at some other developments in the conflict. the white house says u. s. president joe biden has won chinese leadership ging being that will be consequences if he provides his ally russia with material support and it's war in ukraine. the to president spoke on friday for 2 hours in

a video call. china's foreign ministry said she told biden the war must end as soon as possible. and the united nation says the fighting is displaced really 6 and a half 1000000 people inside ukraine. that's on top of the more than 3000000 refugees who feel ready fled the country. in total, those estimates made around a quarter of ukrainians had to flee. they hopes residents. zalinski is calling full military support not only from foreign governments, but also foreign fighters. soon after the war broke out, he formed an international legion for volunteers willing to help the ukrainian army fight russian forces. lensky government says around $22000.00 men have signed up an estimated 1000 of them from germany. it's 3. i am at a bus station in berlin, 34 year old pascall font with the german armed forces in afghanistan. now he's going to ukraine as

a volunteer fighter. he said farewell to his 3 daughters. the should soon all find out in a way i'm protecting my children, even if i'm over there, i'd say if i wait until it comes here, then it might be too late income. but if i go over there now, if i could try to end it beforehand from o dot info on the google, docile and he's heading to a war zone. it's not clear how many germans are fighting alongside the ukrainian army. it's estimated to be about $1000.00 that german interior minister is not stopping people, join the war unless they're known to be extremists. dinning the o 6, those who have an extremist ideology want to train on the use of weapons. for instance, we do try to stop them from leaving germany through legal proceedings. ukrainian president followed emer zalinski has called on people from all over the world to come and fight for ukraine. ukraine has even put out recruitment than yahoo seems to work the battle against russia. is the battle for your future. they say for in the legion of tutorial, defense,

green is waiting for you actually. but experts warn that foreign volunteers could worse and the conflict hearing lots of volunteers from the outside in some ways, plays into hooton's hands because he's trying to portray this war, not as russia conquered ukraine, but as russia defending itself from the west and russia has shown that it makes no exception for foreign fighters. earlier this month, an air strike hit a military base near the polish border where foreign fighters had also spent time training. at least 35 people were reportedly killed in the air strike on the barracks where the foreign fighters were among them is unclear. this volunteer fighter from germany says he was inside the barracks during the attack. is goin this little no, i miss. i like that striking 50 to 100 meters away from you, or maybe 200 and you've managed to run away. that's something that's hard to forget . obviously with no, he complains that his ukrainian superiors did not warn him and his comrades of the

air strike other soldiers were able to flee to the bunker. the na hello, polite my lead, still ready to risk my life. right? europe's freedom. but i'm not ready to foolishly sacrifice my life and just say ok then just kill me on foxes. althea, that uncomfortable the former german soldier has now left ukraine. he says the decision was consensual, but other germans still want to fight and are now heading for the war zone. a group of those 0100 ukrainian refugees as arrived safely in spain after a long journey from temporary accommodation in poland. a convoy of determined spanish taxi drivers made the trip of over 3000 kilometers possible. oh, hans and hugs welcomed them, unlikely heroes back home baron. i and refugees who have found

a new home in spain. the aid mission began 6370 kilometers ago, here in madrid, that's when the spanish caravan of 32, taxis hit the open road for poland and was left last week on wednesday and got back to day drivers hauled tons of food, warm clothing, and medicine to our reception center in warsaw. but they didn't make the return trip with empty cars. they shuttled 135 ukrainian refugees with them. we as cape to poland her from ukraine beds are a lot of pressure refuges her right now and her we just want to go as far as it possible to to be him, you know,

to be safe and to feel say she's among more than 3000000 people who have fled rushes attack on ukraine, most of come to poland, either to wait out the war or plan another destination. for those madrid bound, the ride is bittersweet. i know where i'm going to live, but i don't know what i'm going to do. how my going to work? where's my life going and what's the future for my family in ukraine? this initiative is just one of many springing up across spain and europe, aimed at helping refugees. those who made it here will stay with people who are opening up their homes to strangers. as for the ones who brought them, the volunteer taxi drivers hope to bring more ukrainians to safety soon. now to some of the other stories making news around the world. for you,
