5:10 pm
what we know about the cranium force is still holding out in the ball. yes, we know a little bit. the main core of the defenders is composed by the as of the italian, which is highly experienced. a bunch of fighters have been fighting out for the last 8 years in that region. from the russian perspective are often seen as highly nationalistic, very far right wing. and himself about symbolic target. the other units that are made unit is a unit of ukrainian marines. many from, i think were captured earlier this week. is my money up, or would you say a defining battle in the course of this war? and if so, why is it so important? yes, i think so later from 2 to perspective, from the russian perspective, it's the 1st major city they will have taken if they take it if and when they take it. the 2nd reason, of course, is it is the final league in the land bridge between metropolitan russia in call it,
5:11 pm
that the main body of russia and berries helped by don bus and the crimea. so that's very important. it is a major industrial center as well. of course. the 2nd perspective course is the ukrainians, and i would suggest that over the next few days, what we're going to see is a bottle very much like that. which rat standing right with the red october steel factory there. and it took 3 months for the germans even to, to get to a point where they thought they were taking it held on for 3 months. i don't think the defenders in, in my up all of the style are going to last that long, but it's going to be a very tough fight for both sides. very awesome bolick one of course the ukrainians and the symbolic one and did it. it's been 3 weeks or says russia announced that it's turning, it's attention to ukraine's east, but then offensive has been slow to get going. what's been holding them back? yes,
5:12 pm
they've taken almost no ground in the don't bus area actually throughout the whole the whole campaign. what's happening now of course, is that they're resetting their forces from the defeating care. that will take some time. i don't think we're going to be seeing a major offense if they're for the inserting the next week, or maybe in the next 2 weeks. we are seeing attacks, also seeing you crated counter attacks. but the endemic problems with the russian forces remain, which is why it's taking them weapons, which will certainly contribute to this battle going on on the internet problems, big corruption, poor logistics, poor planning, poor command structures and antiquated doctrine. eventually they will get themselves together. we can see now force is forming north of, of is you making probing attacks that as well we have you with us. i want to get your take on what happened in the city, relatively untouched by fighting compared to places like my you ball, a safe haven for those fleeing violence and other parts of the country. at least 7
5:13 pm
people killed in russian strikes is the nature of the war changing. let's see. so next the war has been fairly consistent with russian attacks and civilian populations, trying to deliver that message later. this is, this is not a safe area, but there are no safe areas that we can catch caption can you almost anywhere. there's no way you can feel safe. we saw the attack last week on crime, a toast, for example, just op ukrainian said look, it's time for people to leave the area, the direct response being attack on them on one of the main evacuation areas. now this is strategic strike was so called strategic strike. it's the intention is to terrorize and undermine the morale of the population because it's doing the reverse of the 6 generally do frankly, richer senior lecture alive strategy at the university of portsmouth. sir, thank you very much. for taking the time to take our questions greatly appreciate it. thank you. all. despite the renewed assault on ukraine, russia has suffered
5:14 pm
a major loss. the black sea flagship, the mosque sank after allegedly being hit by ukrainian missiles. something that the kremlin denies will now images have emerged appearing to show the worship on fire, and engulfed in smoke just moments before he went down. the missile cruiser was the biggest russian warship lost in action since world war to okay, let's try to find out what the ramifications are. of this, sir, did of correspondents and russia, alice constantine, egret, joints, me, now, constantine, these pictures that we just saw, the sinking of the mosque are going viral. how damaging are these images for? president putin got much. so, you know, i was, i was, i spoke to several minutes or analysts including some specialist in enable affairs over the last 48 hours. and basically the unanimous assessment
5:15 pm
is that this is of course not only terrible p r and then sure that basically the whole russian on fools is as well not very competent. but it also points in the view of my interlocutors to kind of reveal slightly if he wish, raises the cause in a bit over the overall unpreparedness. and as your previous speaker said, basically antiquated, metra nature of russian military thanking the fact that this was the only blue water ship in the whole black c clean, which actually means that was the only ship that was able to conduct operations globally. also is something to be reckoned with. it underwent a refit in 2018,
5:16 pm
2020. and this did not. and extensively judging by some russian sources, at least, it included a completely new radio electronics system installed in the ship and it didn't save it. so basically tells us, i think those who watch it, including put in military, professional, military grocers, them making their conclusions. and these conclusions are not very positive from the point of view of the promise ration of the russian forces, at least the russian needed cause. i hope we can elaborate on that a little bit. this, this now raise any doubts about russia's ability to capture and control eastern regions of ukraine. well, i wouldn't go as far and i'm not on the ground to judge, although frankly, the fact that until now and it's nearly 2 months of the rule that we've seen,
5:17 pm
there is no major ukrainian city that's been taken by the ross. let me tell you something, but at least we'll go to the navy. i can tell you again, conversing with the experts over the last 2 days, is that it is a major blow to the russian operations general. first and foremost of all, i must block the cruiser, which used to go to law in the solid days, which was glory ah, is was the only ship that could provide a serious air defense to the rest of the baltic sea fleet. that is important also because there are truck transports, that potentially transport troops from the rational to bite crime min minutes. oh, to the front, to do essentially to, to the coast you brandon coast. now these ships, if you ever want to send them anywhere, will not be well protected. we'll be essentially, i would say sitting ducks, but much easier targets will the ukrainians. and secondly, if, and that is,
5:18 pm
i quote one of the experts with whom i spoke. if the russians ever thought about amphibious assault on the part of a decimated, very important city for your great, all right, another important point, they must forget about it now, because without the cover from moscow, it will be plain, but it will be a massive w correspondence and russia, alice constantine a good. thank you very much. of land rebel is war on ukraine is being waged with the blessing of the russian orthodox church, but not all its followers are behind the invasion or one russian monastery here in germany is taking a different stand monks at saint gerberg's abbey, north of berlin have opened their doors to ukrainian refugees and did a renewal, went to visit them. oh, michelle added to neil earbuds greets his guests. normally his 9 monks would be
