africa started the cleanup after devastating floods. thousands are homeless and the entire neighborhoods wiped out. the search for the missing continues as the death told me, is 400 ah i'm fil gail. welcome to the program. moscow has struck what it says is a missile factory on the outskirts of keith that appears to be in retaliation for thinking of russia's largest warship in the black sea and comes as the kremlin promises more attacks on ukraine's capital. meanwhile, ukraine says, russian forces have used long range bombers for the 1st time to attack the city of mario pole. and that of reports of fatalities after strike some cities in the east and south. as the war passes its 50th day air raid sirens have been sounding across

the country. awe 50 days into the war, and this is still the wake up call and keith. heavy explosions were heard here over night. they said to be the most powerful since russian forces pulled out of the region around the capitol hill progress. russia says it will step up its attacks ship where the mosier were to night, the sea based high precision long range missiles hit, a military facility on the outskirts of keith. the number and scale of missile strikes against objects. and keith will increase in response to any attacks of a terrorist nature or sabotage on russian territory by the keys, nationalist regime, the distorted sama asking if it's also in retaliation for the sinking of this war ship the moskva, russia is acknowledged. the ship has been lost. but not that it was due to ukrainian missiles either way, a big blow, according to the pentagon. this is

a cruiser. they only have 3 in this class, and it's basically designed for air defense. that's, that, that's what the ship is designed to do. not unlike our own cruisers, so it's going to have an impact on their capabilities, certainly in the near term. but this for teacher from the southern port city of mary you, paul, serves as a reminder of moscow's military might and brutality. with russia now focusing its attention on ukraine's east, mary, you paul, would be key and connecting the southern and east and france despite a strong russian presence. ukraine says the city hasn't fall and yet the country's president used his nightly address to praise ukrainian resilience yeah, caucasian if tunable for to put it mildly, no one was sure that we would survive. she's beat everyone's sympathised heart of dorado. many advised us to leave the country and other folk, the advisors to actually surrender to tyranny. i'll evil mean for they didn't know

us either homing is, and they did not know how brave ukrainians ask if. can we, how much we value freedom? now some of our opportunity to live the way we want to walk some way. this war continues and ukrainians will need to show even more of that. bravery. if that repel the eminent russian onslaught in the east. the w correspondent, rebecca, written as in boucher, which ukraine recently took back from russian forces. i asked her about the situation and now i'm here in that town that has now been liberated, sir. why? why it is definitely net. nothing resembling normal phil here. it's a ghost town, but one thing i was really surprised by having to really struck me was just the pace at which everything has been cleared away in the world. by now, the world is pretty much seen those horrific images when it, where we ukraine finally gained access to this area are again of all the tanks and

the debris and we're stuffing that residential block that everyone was seeing. all of that pretty much has now been cleared. it was really quite surprising. i was surprised. i've only been in cave one day myself, so i didn't see any of it previously. but definitely everyone here just really trying hard to get this city back on its feet. some of the people we spoke to definitely telling me of the atrocities that took place here. and showing me welcoming me into their homes, which have been all but destroyed. are one gentleman whose house had been been used as a russian headquarters, and his house had been completely destroy. the russians blew it up before they left or just after they left, i suppose. and so it's gonna take a very long time. you'll see behind me everything, all the shops completely still destroyed, going to take a very long time, but people doing what they can to get this back on. it's fate and, and how are authorities going about gathering evidence yet?

well, that is the next step. i mean, at the moment or thirties are working hard to gather evidence of war crime so far. the human rights commission of ukraine, as of today, has over 6000 a documented cases and authorities definitely going through to talk to people hundreds, if not thousands of journalists as well, have been through and spoken to people or organizations such as human rights watch . and the like that is sort of the next phase at the moment here also so much is being concentrated on the humanitarian effort. the city is still cut off from power and water and telecommunications have been restored now. but obviously that is the 1st step. and then of course, comes the documentation of, of all the war crimes i, yesterday i was speaking to the commissioner or the ombudsman rather for the human rights commission. and she was saying they've also set up hotlines so that people couldn't report. she said it was really important, particularly in the cases of the sexual violence claims because many people were

still terrified and traumatized and found it very difficult to come forward. so there are hot lines also set up to be able to take testimony in russian forces and now now seems to be focusing their attention on the east of the country and bring us up to date with what's happening there. well, that's right, a heavy bombardment or re focus of russian efforts is expected really any day now in the aisd. so obviously for the last week or so, authorities have been telling residents to just get out of that area while they still can. i was reporting from down near, near, near that area on the region bordering don bass on the weekend. it's like to lots of people from the hans gone yet. close areas in the don bass. mass evacuations going on from the east and the south. but not everybody is leaving of course, as of the other day, still around about 30 percent of people were staying in no hands. i spoke to a gentleman at the train station when i was leaving that area and he was leaving to

but he was telling me about some friends of his enhanced that simply didn't want to leave. they were gonna stick around and try and defend. they said they've lost everything already in 2014. they weren't prepared to do it again and he broke down in t is as he was telling me the story. obviously the scenes that you just saw in that report they from are you pull the scenes that we've seen here from places such as boucher every one worried that we're going to see similar things like that down in the east. rebecca recess in boucher now ukraine is calling on allies to send more heavy weapons to help defend against the expected russian assault in the east. a database alexandra phenomena has been to meet members of the countries territorial defense forces who say they fought off. russian troops near keith with weapons made in the last century. but on the move with members of the 114 brigades, part of ukraine's territorial defense force. we are in bitter epcot, one of the villages that were in the way of the russian invaders and their

offensive on the keith. all my local drama convoy was approaching on the street, la boucher. we were holding our positions at the neighbouring village and the highway. one of us was the, came from the left. we were told to re position to strengthen our line than, than the squadrons commander, gave the order to open fire, or the modem of armor causing the wound lawyer. that's his nickname, shows me john footage of the attack. the russians where it is oriented, he says they didn't seem to expect resistance. they tried to break through, but lawyer with his soviet major rocket launcher stood in their way. if boomers was, if we had modern weapons, we would have destroyed them all forward. proceed. but we had to use what we've got are for weapons from the last century. we're earth rooms exist religion. the ukrainian forces do not lack enthusiasm or the courage to fight against all odds. but what they say they need our happy weapons as soon as possible. as the whole country braces for

a great battle in the only better equipped and armed they say they can repel russian attacks and prevent more war crimes from happening. many fear destruction left behind by russian soldiers around ki, if is a grim omen of what may be in store for the east caucus. originally from the internet, screeching in eastern new cream to still more go on your system. i have mixed feelings is hard, but if you're hain greeting, we are soldiers. we have to pull ourselves together and we must not shore pain and fear our children and wives depend on us for your wrong the nation. and they depend on each other. the worst moment is the one before the battle. cook says, but when it starts, he adds that fear is gone. take a quick look out, so no store is away from the war. i'm the only surviving perpetrator of the 2015 terror attacks in paris. as a pride has apologized to the victims and a tearful statement to the court,

economic consequences of these natural disasters. they are very visible now, but they're 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 houses are destroyed, some of us don't have jobs and no money, so we don't even know where we would like to not going through that we have fast food, grocery, everything, even our clothes and property looks up. we don't know what we're going to do. so many people have the idea of being pleading for assistance because i don't want to promise less of us. 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 much. what's your bed? my dad, she died now when my dad near bassett. because we have got no place to sleep.

rescue operations by helicopters and away 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 rescues and just trying to make a difference in getting people out from 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're still finding a few people alive, 5 yards just mostly body recoveries. beckett, the container depot, searching her resume. current is t must still busy removing containers from the nearby highway to at least the traffic can flow again. ah, things won't get back to normal any time soon. the south african says, but at least fortunately, his company was in short and set you up to date more world news of the top of
