but there is no sign of her. the queen, she's just not answering my calls. as i know she's not picking up louis. she was among hundreds fleeing war and hunger, hoping to board a train at premier tusk on friday. but then a rocket hit the station killing more than 50 people and injuring dozens more. so it was terrifying the horror. the horror hadn't forbid i have to experience anything like that. again, they both of them. you know, i don't want to russia denies launching the rocket pro russian separatist blaine ukraine for the strike. but ukrainian president followed amir zalinski calls the attack a russian war crime. he's begging western leaders to do more to protect his people . he warns of a tough battle ahead as russia he groups in the east civil disclose. now we

believe in this fight and in our victory marshall boring bull here to move national . but we are ready to simultaneously fight and look for diplomatic solutions. different if i could end this war openly. the trevino boy british prime minister boris johnson, made a surprised trip to visit zalinski and ukraine on saturday. the leaders discussed more british financial support. that's on top of 100000000 pounds in high grade weapons. johnson promised on friday to help you crane thinned off russian attacks of a lion. russia deny is launching a rocket at civilians at the crumbs tours station, but it has a new war plan. general alexander devine cough will now oversee the invasion. he commanded russian forces in syria and will take control of an invasion, plague by high casualties, and some unexpected losses on the ground or get more or less v as in other

developments with nick connelly who's there for us in keith nick boris johnson. we just heard it, he's hailing the bravery of the ukrainian people during his visit. is there more to this kind of symbolism? well, definitely this visit was all about the optics about making that difficult journey to care of by train from poland getting here. and yet this was a visit that was like all these previous visits from top or western officials has been trout in secrecy for safety reasons. but he came with a whole list of things that the cranes had been expecting of him, not only for money, financial guarantees for ukraine's economy, but also and to ship missiles that's on top of further anti tank and antiaircraft missiles. and the promised that trends cooperation between the u. k and ukraine would grow in future that you crank, rely on british intelligence and other miniature technology. so there really was a lot for volumes lensky to be happy about. and he has said that the u. k. is basic exemplar to other european con,

is who have be much more luck than much slower to supply the kind of weapon systems that ukraine has been out of the us before. this war is of course, far from over negotiation cease fire. any kind of resolution is also seemingly far away, or more can you tell us about what we can expect in this next stage of the war? different even though those talks in various formats are continuing between ukraine and russia, it seems like for now, most of those talks are just of to ticket books basically because neither side can really afford to be seen to not be open to negotiation, but you don't get a sense, especially from the russians, that they are willing to really compromise on what they're trying to achieve here. and even huge losses of russian soldiers and huge losses also, equipment in a hallway that doesn't seem to really change that calculation. and ukraine similarly has done a lot better than basic any one in the west expected. and so is sticking to its guns and is not willing to make any serious kind of compromise on its territorial integrity to i the recognize rushman control of crimea, all those self proclaimed republics in the east. so now the expectation is that

russia will focus its forces on the east, on don't best on the done yet, can do hon screens where there's been that separatist conflict since 2014, but ukraine has controlled up till the end of february to be in this war. about 2 thirds the actual area. so it seems like russia now trying to take those regions in their entirety. now that's can not gonna be very easy because ukraine has very good fortifications, very good trenches and other defense structures. absolutely. they've been fighting for a long time. so real worries, this is gonna be a very intense, very bloody campaign with a lot of heavy weaponry. use them both sides and that's why ukraine's government is now calling on civilians in those bottles of the country to get out will they still can. so that's an eastern part of the country back where you are in cave. how is life changed for people there? as far as you've seen now that it seems i, russian forces are withdrawing from that area. it is true that they are now no longer round. kevin, they have retreated into bellows. and we said that the boat with belarus, which is

a country that is in very close defense cooperation with russia, is about a 100 kilometers direct line from key of to that is still very close and very present and see there's lots of mines and other traps left to people can't return to their homes readily. lots of places still without power, without gas. but today, for the 1st time in weeks, if it has to be in the war, there was not a single error aid warning here and keeps that definitely really affect people's mood in this sense of their safety. you see shops and restaurants reopening, i'd say about, but it feels like about a 3rd of the pre will population is here. but, you know, having said that, those missile attacks that even of even the fall west of really taught ukraine is that there is no one in the country that is fully safe from russian attacks and conway there for us. and key thanks very much. and now some of the other headlines in the warren ukraine, russian forces are carrying on their attacks on the eastern city of car heave. the offensive has caused considerable damage to civilian targets. more than 100 people
