famine a well, the way concerning kenya about wheat imports from ukraine and russia? ah, i've been fizzle and welcome ukraine is calling a russia to allow civilians to escape the southern port of mary opposite the local councils. his russian forces who've surrounded the city, have reduce it to ashes with constant bombing. president lamesa lansky says a $100000.00 civilians are trapped without food, water, or medication. what's even worse, according to zalinski, is that russia's sees the humanitarian convoy attempting to bring relief to burial pals besieged residence. mm. yet more bombs fall on the besieged city of morrow. you pull civilians. lucky enough escaped

say conditions in the city, a desperate to them. you did you hear the evil of mateo, paul onto being helen speaking with that elite of help? can you believe that people don't have water to drink water? that's not even fit for industrial purposes. as no one you can ask for help. yoga keith and other major cities have also been hit with russia ramping up. it's bombardment, as it struggles to advance on the ground. aubrey she is in a televised address to the nation president followed him, his lensky said negotiations with moscow. where on going softer, what are those remembrance you ought to not? we continue to encourage russia to move towards peace or to end this brutal war hill. ukraine representatives are participating and talks that are taking place virtually every day, but it was very difficult or sometimes confrontational, should they step by step?

we are moving forward. awesome scandal. i'll let corrosion broken. he them off, but it russia seeking to gain leverage with its relentless pounding of civilian targets. the landscape says keith is prepared to discuss the status of crimea and the separate has done with region after sees fire. adding that any agreement would have to be approved by the ukrainian people. but any concessions to russia will be a hot sell to an embittered public at north b was done with this. it was old when it will have relatives who live over there. but there it stops, saw the russians will never be our brothers again, and then you would have brought in on. let's pick up on that point with the w. corresponding money for char is in the v va, weston ukraine for us. funny it disguising russians will never be our brothers again, what, what's happening here. you can hear this on the streets of live as well. however, mostly what i hear is actually people expressing their grief,

their sorrow over what is happening in this country. they say they do not have time or do not even want to express hatred towards the russians. some say that it has nothing to do with russia as a whole about russia politics, and they actually express their hatred rather 2 boats. one man of latimore vladimir putin. but yesterday, when i observed almost a street fight between 2 people, ab, as one ukrainian man was starting to speak russia and that seemingly provoked another man. you really want just really just at this point, how follow these emotions go and are easily also violence can just start up on the pure fact that on ukrainian person starts to speak. russia, which is, by the way, very common. if you look at the history of ukraine, but it was part of the soviet union more than 3 decades ago and russian, the russian leg language was obligate, tory, and most schools in some schools, the only language actually that you are allowed to speak. so a bottom line of various reactions, but mostly as i say,

people are expressing the sore and the grief rather than their hatred or any dislike it towards russia as a whole. how this bird is the situation for besieged residents of muddy opal in the south. we heard there that some of them don't even have clean water to drink. exactly. no clean water is one thing, but also no access to very basics. you need to survive. the war is in week number 4, actually is only almost one month that it also sorry, it started more than about one months ago. and this is a long time if you have no access to very basic speed, food, water, or clean water emetic and medical supplies, et cetera. if you listen to the city council who described yesterday, this state of mary pool as a place that's been reduced to ashes of a dad, land is really hard even put in were so hard to even imagine what is happening on

the ground with that people laying on the ground, medics not able to access a people who are either hiding or trapped in a residential buildings trying to bring some relief to them. so it's a devastating situation not only merging pool by the way, but certainly of that toner to hobble which is sort strategically important to a russia is very much in a focus right now. also the full course of trying to get people out from there. and they've been talks to end all this fighting, continuing via video link, or what, what you make of the comments from zalinski that there is progress being made. although it's quite confrontational. given what i just said, describing a situation where you pull and other places in ukraine, you really do not have the impression at all. that there is progress, at least the these other comments were here. and of course, on the other hand, you know, the president zalinski needs to somehow keep the spirit up. so by him saying

there's a progress step by step, even though then he says, the situation between russia and ukraine remains confrontational, tells you what the picture is. it is at the status, it is as it is in ukraine, the war continues and the hope is, of course, increasing among so many that there must be an end to this soon. now the hope that people have here that more sanctions will be issued by the u. s. a. by european leaders this week, even though others again, are skeptical because so many sanctions have been issued before without any change . so, yes, presidents lensky says hanging there, basically there is going to be progress step by step. but really, the question is at what price and what ukraine is going to look like at that point . very good point. if i chose for us in levin weston ukraine, bringing us up to date there on the situation. he says, look at some other developments in the war. russian investigators have launched a criminal case against veteran russian journalist, alexander. and if so, roth,

he had accused the army of deliberately shelling at maternity hospital in the ukrainian city of medical news. zora is the 1st prominent journalist to full, foul of new legislation, banning criticism of russia's warn you would new pro russian winner of the 2021. no bell peace prize says he will auction off the prestigious medal and donate the proceeds to help you. cranium, refugees, between warrant off was the co winter of the price for his work as editor of via as ita rushes, last independent newspapers. and to your turns by the russian oligarch, roman abramoff which have don't in turkey. avoiding european sanctions of russia super rich, a group of ukrainian demonstrators tried to prevent one of the vessels from mooring in the turkish port of budrum. so he has criticized russia's invasion of ukraine, but rejects sanctions. ukraine's president florida zalinski says the war

due crank could prompt famine in other parts of the world. so landscape ones that russian attacks, of preventing farmers from sewing crops and blocking ships from leaving ukraine's ports. ukraine is one of the world's biggest produces wait. the effects of the conflict are already being felt. every morning this dawn and kenya's capital nairobi, baker chap patty flat bread out of wheat flour. it's a typical local breakfast, but customers can barely afford it any more. say, nicholas, because it's got more expensive. i have to pay double the price. now he, my life has gotten extremely expensive. yoga monkey dumble, samuel masa runs the small bakery with 4 employees. the cost of wheat flour and flower oil has been rising for a while. but now he fears it's getting even worse, driven by rushes worn ukraine. what did he do? like what he did, we're following the war because we need to know what's happening and come to not to

me or be that some other products which we use come from both those countries we looked at here. do the whole world is worried layoff in kenya around a 3rd of imported wheat comes from russia and ukraine. the global market price for the grain has already increased massively. that's also being felt by this company that makes love. so supermarkets, the worry is that the global supply will shrink. prices will rise further and poor countries will barely be able to afford wheat. the situation is a really worrying up because not only price. the next thing we're talking about is availability. um world ready? seeing a lot of our suppliers pulling out force, major cards on contracts. but there's one country with vast reserves. china analysts estimate it has around half of the world stocks and it's warehouses. it's intended to ensure enough food for its own population. but the fears that china

could exploit the global situation, geopolitically yakima, cuz the ivan, china has enough reserves to also be able to support certain poorer countries in africa with supplies. it leads me to leave forms on districts. the communist party realizes this gives them leverage to be able to expand the influence there. in i flows as i china has been expanding its involvement on the continent. it's building roads, ports and trained routes like he and kenya. it also provides loans to african states in return, it gets access to africa, abundance of natural resources and its markets. now africa dependence on china looks set to increase in a show of solidarity with ukraine. sports clubs in the balkans are providing refuge for athletes escaping rushes invasion. the clubs are giving the athletes a safe haven, accommodation and meals and the opportunity to continue their training and
