ah, i'm gather as welcome to the program. ukrainian officials say they're digging communal graves for victims of the departing russian forces near keith be apparent atrocities, including footage of scores of dead civilians in the streets of the suburb of butcher have sparked international outrage. several you countries are pushing for tougher sanctions against russia. with some leaders calling with killings, war crops, a warning to our viewers. this next report cont, that contains some disturbing images as ukrainian forces recapture territory to the north of keith reports of what russian troops left behind continued to emerge. civilians with their hands tied apparently shot at close range. dozens of other bodies had been found in mass graves.

fisher, missouri, so what we seen her pin for you have ever seen butcher a horrible images. unfortunately, these images are not from a film. but reality is the terrible reality where civilians are shot dead with hans tag behind their backs. sir, myrtle crown, royal ye cranes proceeded. general says more than $400.00 bodies have been found in town. surrounding keith, president vladimir zelinski, said russian forces must be held responsible for the go as soon as i call on all our citizens and friends of ukraine in the world. who can join this work and help establish justice to do so. the world has already seen many war crimes at different times on different continents, but it is time to do everything possible to make the war crimes of the russian military, the last manifestation of such evil on earth. the call was law. as emily,

russia has rejected the claims calling what happened in butcher a fake attack, and yet another provocation by the ukrainian government but people here described killings by the russians issue. he went to get some road when all of a sudden the russian started shooting when it hit him above the heel, crushing the bone over. but he fell down. tricker should be at the oh, i'm up for you. all the people who were going to this area were shot. well, thought we were afraid to go out because if they saw you, they would shoot you that a good if, if you, if i am so free to talk to you, i mean, i'm afraid they will come back from 4 talks were set to resume between ukrainian and russian negotiators to day, the horrifying images from butcher will no doubt make the hard task of finding a diplomatic solution even more difficult. as not at the latest from our correspondent rebecca t as is in levine and western. you grind,

rebecca. what do we know about what actually happened in boucher at this stage and what do we not know yard where you heard it there. i mean these are atrocities on an incredible scale. it's really difficult to even find the words to describe the scenes that we're seeing is some truly horrific image as you saw them there in that report, people shot riding their bicycles. people shot with their hands tied behind their back at close range from behind. mass graves with charred bodies. these are what presidents lensky and the foreign minister here are calling war crimes. those claims are being echoed by some are leaders around the world. they say that these are war crimes and they are tantamount to a genocide. president salenti has said that is what we do know the russians have denied the claims. the russians said that it wasn't their soldiers who, who are accountable for this. they said that they left these areas on march 30th.

why these images only coming out now, but the truth of the matter is that we've had imaging. we've had a satellite images that show that these graves were dog, are much earlier than the russians before the russians left. and we're also getting testimony from the survivors from people there that, that match up with in all the areas around. so definitely hard to see how it what these, this, these atrocities work committed by ross russian soldiers. now the government, kiefer is now appealing to the world saying a needs more support to avoid another butcher. what exactly are they asking? well, president zalinski of course, has said that they want justice for the victims that they will be taking all the accounts of everything that's gone on there and the justice will be found will be fought for alongside that. the re, a reiterating the calls that they've been,

the calls that they'd be making since the beginning of this war. they won't weapons and they want sanctions. they don't want sympathy. they want to be able to fight back the russians are of course, also calling now for europe to stop buying rush and gas and oil. and those calls are getting louder and they're even being heard on the european side with some european leaders. in fact, it's saying that they are going to agree to that and other late is considering it a much faster than previous. and you know, we're not really seeing a change in what they're asking for. but we are saying those calls saying ramped up . this is getting, you know, more and more serious every day and these atrocities these human rights violations . a testament that no russian troops seem to have moved away from cavers. you've mentioned earlier. what are you hearing? where are they going? that's right. i mean, of course, the withdrawal, the push back of these russian troops in those regions around cave and in a further north, in a round, a city called china. here they are, of course,

being considered as military victories and will definitely been served to boost morale, of the, of the ukrainian military, perhaps damp and morale from the russian side. but this war is far from over, rather than any kind of peace deal or, or victory in this war are they, that they russians are actually regrouping. and they were seeing evidence that they regrouping to add up their bombardment further east in the dumbass region. and along the port cities are the dumbass region, home to landscape and good dance, which have been under russian control. seeing sir 2014. and they want to create a land corridor through the city of matthew paul, to the crimea region, which is also held by the russian. so cities in the aisd like how to keep seeing strong about bought bombardments and annette. sorry, rather don, i'm sorry, the city of odessa on the we can also seeing the 1st round of bombardment there.

that's the key port city that the russians also want to take. so rather than this b as of low in fighting where we're expecting to see that increase in the aisd in the coming days and weeks. good of you corresponded rebecca route as there. thank you. jim and john soul of shots has reacted to the reports of atrocities in ukraine. he says, western eyes will impose more sanctions on russia. in the next few days, the trotter, the president, putin on horse, not off in by colon president, putin, and on russia. really to finally agreed to a cease fire after this time. this was a horrible, senseless war that cannot be justified by any thanks to russia fighting the creek that created endless suffering and benefits. no one london lost that would have to stop the and coordination of allies and we will decide on further measures in the coming days. president, putin ones, i know president putin and his enablers will suffer the consequences of vita him

and we will continue to supply weapons to ukraine so that you can defend itself against the russian invasion. let's get more. all the german reaction now from a max look, sees member of the german parliament for the green party, which is forming the government together with 2 other parties. and he serves all the parliamentary committee on human rights. now president zelinski and some western leaders have spoken of genocide, is that what you are seeing there? you know, what we see is a destroyed town mass graves and options. it's horrifying reports from butcher. there's no way we can go back to normal, even if the washington army were to withdraw immediately. there are reports from eye witnesses. hey, the people were just walking down the street when they were shot down in the ukraine was city of which has become an example of the walkway that are being

committed. and it's shocking to see us. you said there's no way to go back to norma normality, but germany seems to be sticking to normality. we're still buying russian gas and all as we were doing that before, isn't the time that stop once they what's your response to that? you know, we're, we're working in every single subcommittee of this house to make sure we get an independent from wash in oil and gas. em pastor entry, but together with all of our european partners to strengthen the sanctions against russian regime. and i think this whole important after that, what's happened in books are another thing that is really important right now. am i seeing we really need to make sure that this was she and walk crimes get a reaction from the international law and we make sure there will be

a court for war crimes. after that, what do you think the german government could do more? take a tougher line and also cut, stop buying oil and gas and finance. this war i think the german government needs to work together with all our european partners. it wouldn't make sense if i, as the german politician, say, for my own we need to do this and we need to do this. the only reaction protein enter russia understand is when the european union em speaks with one voice, it was time. so we have to talk to all you can partners, and we have to make sure we are together and we act more hot after that. what happens in woodstock now, do you think that, you know, if we keep talking to our european partners, which we of course with germany of course has to do and tries to get independent

from russian oil and gas, which will take years. that doesn't stop the atrocities does it i really feel ashamed as a german citizen in this time because what we see is that m. ringback human rights interests and interest to defense, the international law was less important than human wipe, democracy, freedom, and standing with ukraine in the last year of toys and policy. and so now we have to change everything we can, and we have to change it as fast as we can and getting in the pendant from any kind of russian energy is one point of that. now you've mentioned about bringing those responsible to justice. how will that work and how quickly do you think will that work?

i think it's very important. j. m. any kind of international structure now gets to documents. what's happened in boucher and what's happened as to walk? why i'm in ukraine and to make sure this won't be forgets, forgotten. i think it won't help right now. it won't bring the people back. the people who died in boucher after the terrible walk crime of food and the washington army. not only coaching, but i think it's important that we am so if the power of justice or the power of international justice to this war crime mark looks that a member of germany following for the green party and also sitting on the human rights committee there. thank you very much. thank you. bye. throughout the day, we'll continue to bring the latest on the situation in ukraine. but now let's have a look at some of the other news making headlines today. shanghai says all of it's

26000000 residents have been tested for cove at 19, and one of china's largest ever public health responses city has been placed on restrict locked down to combat. rising corona, virus infections with some 9000 cases reported on something on kong. chief executive carry lamb says she will not run for a 2nd term when her tenure comes to an end in june. during her 5 years in office, lamb has overseen major changes that have limited democracy and brought hong kong other tighter control by beijing. replacement will be picked next month. authorities in sacramento, california are searching for these 2 people after a deadly shooting early sunday morning. police are asking the public to share videos and other evidence that could lead to their capture. 6 people were killed and a dozen wounded in the shooting, which happened near the downtown area. serbia's populous president,

alexander voltage, has won the 2nd term in office. securing around 60 percent of the vote in his victory speech vouchers, said serbia would retain its friendship with russia and remain neutral over the war in ukraine. the balkan country has not imposed any sections on russia. maneuver in hungary, the national nationalist, prime minister, victor alba, as one 4th consecutive term in office. that's his 5th, overall after elections on sunday for bonds finished parties. he said to secure, more than 2 thirds of the seats and parliament cabin successfully saw the challenge from an alliance of opposition on his face, accusations of eroding democracy throughout his tenure as a prime minister. before this, let's go to our corresponded in budapest fun. if a child and our correspondent barbara vessel in brussels, funny, let's go to you 1st. this had been billed as the biggest challenge to oberon's grip on power, yet he pulled off a resounding victory. how did he do that?

premise to victor oberon, basically, masters of those populace. dick ingredients populist decision makings, he had time to master that for the past 12 years. just speaking about the price gap on, on, on oil, on gas, a price cap on certain food items, textually, for families, all of these things that really and as a huge spending spree, 1000000000 euros have been spent on that prior to the election. convinced about 2700000 voters to cast a ballot for him, but that's only just one part of the activation. of course, the ongoing war in the neighboring country. ukraine also needs to be calculated in have been looking at those numbers. now about 3000000 people didn't even cast their ballot at all. and what 1700000 people voted for the oppositional lines. still, the bottom line is yes, he seems to have that too. so majority here in the parliament behind me all the mandates that he needs to actually continue it,

what he calls it liberal democracy and the policies that i've been just picking about populism. and as a result, he's not quite surprising at all, that vladimir putin was the 1st person to congratulate prime minister victor oberon on this landslide victory. now oberon has long been thorn and you lead his side and it doesn't sound like that's about to change before we come to you barbara, let's just listen what he i to say in his victory speech. baggage, relapse, hot water. the whole world is seen in budapest. and is that christian democratic politics are for conservative politics, things are unpatriotic politics. one of you, we are telling europe, this is not the past, this is the future, i will move. this will be our common european future. oh yeah. so barbara of islam, brussels. how is all one's landslide victory going down their way going down like poison pie, obviously because sir there was the hope for naturally. a that democracy would return to hungary, real democracy,

and not the orbit type or because he has been in this ongoing fight for years now about the rule of law about press freedom and other aspects that he has as sort of for over the years really demolished within his country now the european union needs to continue to deal with them and that is difficult as we know. and with regard to the board and ukraine and the relationship to that me put in he can be regarded as the enemy within as some aspects of sort of go against him. one is of course that he is in dire need of money and the has frozen the recovery friend the recovery fund funds because of those rule of law problems. another is that he is truly isolated now because his old friends from the visegrad group of poland, slovakia, and the czech republic have turned away their disgusted about his stance towards the war. so we will see how that plays out. but in the end, the

e u. has to beat their own breast. they have nurtured this snake democratically spoken it to it at their bottom over 12 years. they have not acted, they haven't done anything when there was to time to do something they have taken in or been much too late. and that's going to be a lot of regret these days in brussels. i'll correspondence barbara vessel and brussels and for china, budapest, thank you both very much. and i'll to music's biggest night of the year the grammy awards, which returned for a full capacity show on sunday evening for the 1st time since the pandemic of this year, superstar celebration got a dose of reality when the ukrainian president addressed the audience by a video oh, john legend teamed up with exiled, ukrainian. musician izzy. with a prerecorded video address for me, premium president, a lot of mir zalinski. we defend our freedom to leave, to lapse out on our land. we are fighting russia,

15 times. his album we are was inspired by the black lives matter movement. he's best known as the band lead of the late show, but he's also a duly are educated jazz pianist. we are, is his 8th studio album, his only $35.00. and he's recorded and performed with many of the greats, including the wonder prince ed shira. as he also writes a film, songs, another of his 5 wins was for the picks on the soul. now, best new artist olivia rodrigo, with much less of a surprise. she was nominated in all the top categories. she picked up her further to trophies. he's been thinking all her life and she started as a child actress in high school musical. but 2021 was really her breakout year for music. she shot to number one with her debut single driver's license. and it was the 1st song in 2020 wanted to reach 1000000000 streams. and the same year, she also released her debut album sour, which picked up best pop vocal album last night as well. and she was a found time in 2021 to campaign for young people to get vaccinated for coven,

which took all the way to white house this year. also all 4 top grammy winters were people of color, which is a milestone for the recording academy. because for years it's face criticism that are disproportionately favors white men. um, what were the other stand out? moms was zalinski there in the report addressing over grammy's. what were the other stand out moms? well, for me, billy irish paying tribute to late few fighters drama taylor hawkins, who of course tragically died 10 days ago at aged aged only 50 during the band south american to her, as she performed with a t shirt with his face on it. and that drew a standing ovation. there was also a touching video tribute with lots of archive footage of hawkins all through his career. a few fighters actually picked to lee grammy's last night, including for their tent studio album, medicine at midnight. but none of the band attended though they had been set to perform before hawkins death. there was also a musical tribute to the late musical theater composing icon, stevens on time,
