10:00 am
[000:00:00;00] ah ah, this is deed of you news live from berlin. after 50 days under attack, ukraine claims a major victory at sea. this thinking of a russian guided missile cruiser, russia admits its black sea flag ship the musk but sank while being towed to port after explosions on board. but ukraine says it's miss isles took out the ship. also coming up, they asked, what are you digging here? he said a grade for my dog. they told him this is your grade now. and i just shot more
10:01 am
reports of atrocities committed by retreating russian troops. our reporter meets survivors in the destroyed town of korean. near keith and german police say they foiled a plot to blow up a power station and kidnap a government minister. their alleging germany's health minister was on the target list of a group of domestic terrorist because of his strict corona virus control measures. ah, i'm nick spicer. welcome to the program. it's now more than 50 days since russia lost just invasion of ukraine and his nightly video dress. president volota min lensky praised the ukrainian people for surviving so long under relentless attack. ukraine is also claiming a victory in its efforts to repel russian forces at c rushes military has confirmed
10:02 am
that its main warship and the black sea. the moscow sank while being towed back to port in stormy weather. moscow says the ship suffered a fire in explosion, but ukraine says the damage was caused by its missiles hitting the vessel on wednesday. off the port of odessa. the loss of the war ship is a set back for russia and the symbolic victory for ukraine, which zelinski picked up in on his address. bunch of nimble need to give you. i've seen people who aren't politicians do more in these 50 days, and some statesman who claim to be leaders in the wall. and that leads us to because of these people have shown that russian aviation can be b sin. even the russia has spent tens of billions of dollars on systems to protect its air craft at the lead pick up because i'm these people have sharing the russian ships can only go he but to the bottom model earlier i talked to air martial phil osborne is a former chief of defense intelligence for the united kingdom, and is now
10:03 am
a defense consultant with universal defense and security solutions. i asked him how much losing the moscow would hurt the russian government and what it's pretty to, to make as far as both the craner and russia are concerned, and whether or not it's through russian negligence or ukrainian attack. i think it's a fairly major impact. it's a 2nd major vessel that russia lost in the, in the black sea will, haven't had a fence on a ship capability. but if it is the subject of your crime in a time, then it's going to force russia to change its santa exit. it's going to stand back a lot more. it's going to think about how it uses and then natal assets to support the learning campaign. so. so it's, it's a really major impact either way. this morning there were explosions around the capital key. could that be a symbolic lashing out because of the thinking to think so i'm not surprised. i mean, ukraine is
10:04 am
a war zone and russia said it's refocused. it's attached to the east that doesn't in any way. mean, it's going to so sense or any tax elsewhere, it could actually retaliation for reported ukrainian attacks on russian towns near the border with your crime. but i think we can expect to see russia attacked across ukraine, specially against those important supply lines from a, from a ukranian point of view. and just to return to intelligence with just a specialty, how much is real time intelligence provided by the u. s. and nato countries important to the war effort and in a related question, how important is the intelligence coming from citizens with smartphones to send pictures of tanks, for instance, to the armies telegram channels? well, i think we're seeing one of the 1st was where everything is transparent, social media has transformed well,
10:05 am
what we know and transform walk command does know about their opposition. so so, so i think this is a major change and a much more open intelligence picture is both good and bad depending on where you sit. in terms of western support. western support is critical to your crime and it will become increasingly important. and intelligence will be, will be one element of that support. what that support will do is give you crane a good idea about where russian force is all on the kind of vulnerabilities that posing on the kind of opportunities there for that ukraine house. and you're mentioning support i, i would like to ask you about the importance of supply lines and logistics for both sides and for how important is for the west to keep cars going. if your crane is to win for the next few weeks, frankly, all critical to the upcoming campaign campaign with a rushes,
10:06 am
dreadful illegal invasion of the view crane is successful or whether it's for post on the west is really got stuck up, is done is done. ok, so fall, this isn't russia is re deploying its forces across russia to support this forthcoming offensive in the east. and the west is really got to rearm and then re supply ukraine over the next few weeks. this is, this is a critical period on the west is really going to show that it means what it says. and there's psychology to all of this as we were discussing about the thinking of the mass about the effect that, that might have a date on the calendar that is important psychologically to the russians. as you know, well, is a day of victory on may. the 9th, when they celebrate victory in world war 2, how important is it for a lot of input to haven't militaries to success by then? i mentioned it's very important about the war doesn't follow desirable timelines.
10:07 am
it never has never well and, and i can't see him achieving even a limited success sufficient for the kind of declaration he wants and made. the weather is pretty bad in the east at the moment and that will slow things up even more. no, so frankly, the ukrainians are showing incredibly risk robust resistance really coming back of the russians and i think that's going to continue so. so i suspect who is in for a disappointing made a announcement. they're probably the one, but it will be propaganda or if nothing else. that was the british defense consultant, phil osborne, speaking to us earlier while many regions and you can continue to come under russian fire. the country has reopened 9 humanitarian corridors ahead of expected further attacks. ukraine's government had previously closed the escape routes for day, saying russia had violated an agreement to allow a passage more than 2500 people used the roads to reach safety on thursday,
10:08 am
including hundreds who escaped the besieged city of mariel. paul, earlier i spoke with the w correspondent, young phillips schultz and asked him if an increased russian offensive now seems inevitable. most ukrainians think that this offensive can't be avoided anymore, and that it will cause a new wretched g movements. for sure. the russians seem to have added up to 40000 troops and concentrate them in the don bus region. many observers say the plan is probably to encircle the ukranian troops. there's so many people expect very bloody fighting in the coming days or weeks. the weather in the region has been quite bad. this could also mean that there might be a delay of the attack because it's harder to, to operate off roads. but i fear it's more
10:09 am
a question of when the major check will starts and not it will come and yet in, in the areas around ki, vacated by russian troops. we're seeing more and more evidence of the killing of civilians. you've been to some of the error areas where these things have been taking place. what did you see? yeah, exactly. we visited mockery of the small town and the key of region recently and the are of the destruction, the human suffering that we saw. there are incredible, really, the mayor's sets, or at least 130 civilians were killed from what we could see, i would say at least above the city is completely destroyed. and so the stories that the local residents told us how they had to witness a lot of killings. ah, incredibly accrual. let's. let's have a look at sir. the reports. it's hard to believe that there is still human life
10:10 am
among all the destruction basil and his wife natalia, where it's home when russian troops took over mackarath in late february when morning. so just came to their house and accused basil of taking pictures. they tied him up and left him outside in his to his shed, hulu, hulu. but it was very cold, especially at night. but in the worse that i had no idea what happened to my wife and bush. one day a soldier came and brought me my special medicine, leaky. this was the moment when i understood that my wife was alive everywhere. it's a similar picture. neighbors of a sealant natalia tell us that in this neighbourhood alone, russian soldiers killed 53 people. a 17 year old gro was allegedly rate for weeks their family had to hide in this small basement room, always fearing that they could be the next target. it's hard to imagine a place with more destruction than to with more human suffering. then here,
10:11 am
mackarath, the town of butcher, has become a world wide symbol of russia's war crimes. but it becomes more and more apparent that there are many more butch us all across ukraine. ego worked as a teacher in my car if before the war started. now he walks through the town, distributing donated medicine often he only finds and to ruins. 90 percent of my car roofs residents have left or been killed. egos, friends seems to live in this house. he doesn't know what has become a. wow, ms. ellis, but we used to have a calm and peaceful life here. this family was just renovating their house, that they were constructing a little summer cottage in their back yard. but you all it over there, you see the kindergarten. they got you. what happened to all of it says no social nearby. igor has more success. he finds an elderly men who still lives amongst all the destruction. he has hardly left the house since the attacks began. russian,
10:12 am
so just shut one of his neighbors on the street. usually they asked, what are you digging here? he said a grave for my dog will become wise. yeah, they told him this is your great now. and i just shot him 3 weeks ago, my carrier was liberated by the ukranian army. since then, many volunteers have come to head with the clean up work, but the gruesome memories of the survivors will probably stay with them forever. that was yen, kill of shoals, reporting from mckyrie. children have been among the hardest hit by the war in ukraine. the united nations says nearly 2 thirds of all ukrainian children have fled their home since the invasion began at 4800000 children des space, this place within around 7 weeks. unicef, describe the speed and magnitude of the displacement as incredible of those who remain in their homes, many face food shortages and school closures. that's on top of the extreme trauma of those trapped in besieged cities like mario paul. so how are children coping
10:13 am
under the stresses of war? d, w report, a test of alter, met one mother who fled ukraine with her young son. let them back. but he and now they, are he, in germany the playing as if nothing was amiss. but just a few weeks ago, life changed dramatically in my car and his mother svetlana only wake up a because wish over listen were listen shouldn't and the long been in nissan versa. in black see it so it foam scatter. it's crazy and non i. now i don't believe what happened. the bombing and shelling of her desa and the surrounding area drove svetlana and her son to sleep. they travelled full 100 kilometers, passed devastated towns and villages into brimwell. now they are safe in germany.
10:14 am
but the images they saw a see it to them, memories, the boy is traumatized. that is not the analysis of clicking the wrong cares when he hears loud noises. he asks if the russians have come here in the mouth if they are attacking us just a minute, if they are coming to shoot us and what we should do, he asked. so do we have to hide? do we maybe have to warn others? one of them was not doing you probably need shelling and destruction. this was also the experience of many german children during the 2nd world war hoist. who doesn't want to give his last name was one of them. he was only 10 when he saw the bombs fall. either now you middle hours, when i went out and watched them fly and all of a sudden it went brush and the bomb hit the field for. that was quite a blow or so bright then for the 1st time, and thank god,
10:15 am
never again. i felt such trembling in the legs that i could not control myself. he beat beltran good! today, he's 94 years old. but the impact of the war remains of consumers in ranma ice cream. then he galley lisman. when you experience was a child, you are scarred for life friendless, and that cannot be changed. it can be suppressed a forgotten, but it comes back and dreams. it comes back in pictures, it is in the wild longer eva. as a shadow read, i want to split lana and her son. meanwhile, a doing their best to cope with the uncertainty, set down as a doctor and wants to get her license. her son is due to start kindergarten soon. yes, i should get him right. no. i want to give him the opportunity to settle in. i want to show him that everything has changed, but that he's he with me and that everything that happens he is normal. that he is safe. no one will hutton,
10:16 am
i as long as he's with me. now he has time to get used to everything will feel pretty brooklyn. while they're slowly settling in germany, they wish the war would come to an end. and that some they, they can go back home to ukraine. while some families have managed to escape, many are still in ukraine. earlier we spoke to emily white, who is the media manager for the charity, save the children and ukraine. i asked her about the situation of children living in the war zone, and i will thank you for having me on and thank you, but i really powerful report as well. i think it really brought home by linking, you know, 1st and my story, how every war is the war on children and about which context it's in. and we're seeing similar things inside to ukraine. as you mentioned before, 2 thirds of the conscious children have not been displaced. and then i've got colleagues who are telling me about children who've walked a days, sometimes weeks with nothing but the plays on that back. the weather conditions
10:17 am
have been of been terrible. this at the escalation is complete, started in the deepest winter, and i'm in love it now. it's quite nice. the mainland sunny but early this week it was still snowing and you know, children a telling our colleagues about experiences like being trapped in a basement and marion all the 2 weeks and, and managing some how to get out. and, you know, this just builds a picture of the extreme conditions that children are living in and the kind of psychological distress that, that, that they're facing. and where to say the children were very, very concerned about that risk of long term trauma. not to mention the danger of immediate physical hom, from aerial explosions of bobbins and huge disruption to education separation from their families and all that the child protection risk that comes with that as well . and what kind of help can, can these children expect from, from you and the other n g o?
10:18 am
so the government is helped. is it possible to get help to them? it is, let's say the children actually been working in ukraine and since 2014, when the war started. and we were now really expanding across the rest of the country and to respond to these huge african agent prices change by the day i've got some colleagues, we've been working tirelessly along with local grassroots organization to get the basic immediate need people to blanket nappies hygiene items and also cash assistance as well with the money to help them on the way wherever they're going. and what we now doing as well is bringing that and things that child protection and mental health to support children when they're crossing the board and neighboring countries. and we'll say in kind of centered around the country where we're seeing a lot of people display and that you have to help is getting in. i mean, we do what we can, but what we really need to happen is the media and the violence because there are
10:19 am
places that say for children and other 8 workers can't get into because it's just too dangerous right now. and the only way that we can get the hell to everybody, you need it by, you know, the one thing that was emily white, the media manager for the charity save the children in ukraine, is speaking to a certain their western nations are counting on sanctions against russian banks and financial resources to pressure moscow to and it's war, but russia has prepared for financial hardship. country has been building up its gold reserves and recent years. buying it all from markets all over the world. jewelry stores in sudan are doing well. the ne african country is suffering from the consequences of a long civil war. and gold is seen as a safe haven and on certain times, it's not just sudanese people buying the precious metal. though russians are also buying on a grand scale, not a jewelry stores, but directly from sudanese mines. according to local media reports, a russian gold rush could be
10:20 am
a hedge against western sanctions. the price of the precious metal has gone up around 10 percent since the start of the war. the russian central bank currently holds around $2300.00 tons of gold, the 5th largest gold hoard in the world. no country has bought as much gold rush in the last 10 years. according to the world. gold council of selling gold is becoming more and more difficult. london, the world's largest gold trading center, has suspended purchases from russia because of the war in ukraine. there are, however, loopholes, other trading classes in china, for example, or india. the russian central bank does not need to sell the gold yet. the kremlin could use its gold holdings to guarantee deposits at banks, which suffer from western sanctions. the share of gold in the countries foreign exchange reserves is at 23 percent, which is very high. china comes in 2nd, followed by japan and germany. much of russia's foreign exchange reserves are
10:21 am
frozen because of the war as part of the sanctions. the growing stock of gold has given moscow a little more independence from the u. s. dollar on the euro. but gold is heavy and difficult to transport. you cannot pay for everything with it. south africa is still cleaning up after one of the biggest natural disasters in the country's history. devastating floods triggered by 2 days of intense rainfall earlier this week of killed more than 340 people in the regions surrounding the port city of durban. our correspondent, adenine kish has more awe from up. les look like toys, but they are heavy shipping containers moved away by floss, sachi, hurry, suncoast companies store 1500 containers at this depot. they are now trying to recover them. what data to this? so the atrocity is the looting. did they did earth offices to sell computers. they
10:22 am
basically cut all the cables from, does leave us fringes of microwaves, area spares, whatever was there, whatever they could sell was visibly took it out. so, oh, hard work, you know, but it is what's what it is we just have to rebuild from you. but the 1st question for the team is, where do you even start? you can see this massive destruction and the force of nature right here. the economic consequences of these natural disasters, they are very visible now, but they are likely going to be troubling this region. for a long time. the destruction is visible in many parts of durban. thousands lost their houses and help hasn't reached every one. like corn, our house is on friday. some of us don't have jobs and no money, so we don't even know where we would like to not be okay. we have lost food, grocery, everything,
10:23 am
even our clothes and property looks like we don't know what we're going to do. so many people have the idea of being pleading for assistance that we don't want a promise. that's morgan lewis dinning accord. hey, efforts are very very, very bad because i have no place to sleep. i'm sleeping, i'm standing like this, but i can sleep. so i can't do nothing. my, my 2 children, my dad children now when my dad near bassett, because we have got no place to sleep. rescue operations by helicopters on the way . as some places are still not accessible by roads, the death toll is likely to continue rising. the 1st 2 days we are all going for the risk using risk isn't just trying to make a difference in getting people out for the last 2 days. and i think the couple of days to come in, it's just party recoveries. so we all, we've all got that that, that urging us and that, that hope that we still find a few people alive, folks,
10:24 am
yards just mostly body recoveries. back at the container depot, sachi in her resume current is t must still busy removing containers from the nearby highway to at least the traffic can flow again, things won't get back to normal any time soon, the south african says, but at least fortunately, his company was in short, and here's a round up of some of the other world news headlines. israeli police clashed with stone throwing palestinians to the alex and mosque and jerusalem. after friday mornings ramadan. prayers, israeli security forces have been on high alert after a series of deadly palestinian st. attacks the site is revered by jews as the temple mount and muslims, as the noble sanctuary chinese social media users have posted images of shanghai police in hazmat suit grabbing,
