up any thing. ukrainian green school, maybe the more. meanwhile, the western city of la viv has been had by multiple russian rocket attacks. a several people were killed and ukrainian troops in marielle polls they. they will fight to the end as russia claims it's approaching victory in the besieged port city. your gross gorilla, g. russian missiles raining down on ukraine. gotta tell that russia says it's aiming at military targets in a campaign to weaken ukrainian defenses. but the strikes also kill civilians in levine, alone at least 7. the owner of this service station found 4 of his employees dead in the ruins of his shop. and i guess, but after you, i was planning to go to work when my colleagues called liberal, they told me that there had been an explosion and that there was a fire. some a particular sure the is the worst part of course or the victim. so wiki, i jumped in my car and was here in 10 minutes. when was it and i saw it with my own

eyes. you would have about this with my lab voice while attacks and levine have been rare in maria pull, they forever changed. the face of the city. ukraine says at least 21000 people have been killed here. but it is a non a vision. really careful, mario poll has undergone extremely heavy destruction as a result of the rocket bomb and artillery fire that russia is conducting round the clock. along the russian army has failed to hope to seize. mar, you pull completely. you've said all thanks to the courage of those units. both the ukranian armed forces and other military formation. some that are there, as you put a boy. those whole doubts are making. what could be their last stand here in the vast as of style industrial zone. with them are civilians, including children, and circled and low on food. they know that if maria paul falls,

russian forces tied up here will be free to move on to other targets. such as the town of rubies in it. now on the front line and under constant shelling, this woman lives in a nearby village or what's left of it. she describes what it's like being in no man's land. you them was love, you sell it on money, but we don't even know where the shaelyn comes from. here. we wait for it from there. now thinking that the ukrainian army will protect has but then it comes from there. you put a note that there shaylee from all directions or one elsewhere in ukraine's east. the soldiers prepared to hold the line against whatever the russian army throws at them. imagery was not. our motivation is our home, the motherland. we can't take a single step back and we can't retreat. that's the whole secret of our work. and with ukraine's president saying,

unfortunately, the effect may not be quick enough with regards to the actual battle field and that say the decisive battle field in done bus. and that the sanctions are not really going to be able to effect that in the short term in the long run. absolutely. the russians, russian military really much weakened by the sanctions that have been placed against them. we have to look at some of the headlines around the war in ukraine. pictures have emerged appearing to show rushes black sea flagship, the mosque of a on fire and engulfed and spoke just moments before it went down. the warship sank off the ledge, the being hit by ukrainian, the cells, something the kremlin denies. the missile cruise that was the biggest russian warship lost in action since world war 2 present the lands. he is hoping for progress and ukraine's application to join the european union. he submitted a membership documents to the representative in give you credit wants to be granted
