1:01 pm
a church service in nigeria. dozens. i killed in a rat attack in the south, the country folk, frances described, which was a painful assault on worship, was the time of celebration. ah, i'm fil gail, welcome to the program. but his prime minister barak johnson is fighting for his political survival. members of parliament from his own party have triggered a vote of confidence to be held this evening. has been beset by scandals, including revelations, about a series of parties at his official residence during copays 19 locked dance, and he was booed by crowds as he arrived at the queen's jubilee celebrations this weekend. mister johnson's fate will be decided by a straight majority of conservative m. p. 's party official graham brady announced that he had received enough letters from conservative m. p to demand the vote at
1:02 pm
the threshold of 15 percent of the parliamentary party seeking a vote of confidence in the prime minister has been passed. therefore, vote of confidence will take place. within the rules of the knights do committee that vote will take place this evening in the house of commons between 6 and 8 o'clock and we will announce the result. shortly thereafter, i notified the prime minister yesterday that the threshold had been reached and we agreed. the time table for confidence folks take place and he's shared my view, which is also in line with the rules that we have in place, that that vote should happen as soon as could reasonably take place. let's get more from the w correspondent chart. chelsea pill who's in front of the apartment building in london. welcome, charlotte. what's behind this vote? so there has been a sense here that this very has been a long time coming,
1:03 pm
those party gate. it's allegations that story, as you mentioned, has been dragging on here for months and months. now, just to remind you that has caused a huge amount of upsets among the public, the feeling that those who are making the rules were breaking the rules. we know that the prime minister himself received one fine and connection with a party gate. and we've been hearing from a number of his nps that they have been hearing on the doorsteps when speaking to people that they represent, that that is something that keeps coming up. so that is very, very clearly a facts a hey, there are other factors as well. he has had a suffered in the polls recently once seen as a big election winner. indeed, he brought the party a huge majority in the last election that no longer seems to be the case. and he mention, of course, those booz it's celebrations for the queen's jubilee as well. his supporters will point out, there was some chairs, but indeed there were very prominent booze. perhaps that was a crystallizing moment for those final and peas who were wavering. what we do know
1:04 pm
though, is it still uncertain at this point exactly. which way this vote is going to go? yeah, i was going to the bubbles mines question maybe so a sufficient conservative on piece of coal for these roads. which way is it likely to go well, i think one thing that we have to say straight off the bat is never underestimate premier subarus johnson's ability to survive. there are some whisperings, indeed we had from one of his most ardent supporters here just a short time ago that it's in no question that he will survive this. but there is quite a broad coalition of opponents of prime minister forest johnson and not so long the usual lines as well as he does have people who very much back to him and breaks it . who now coming out saying that they are against his prime minister. his detractors have been very critical, very odd and many of raising questions about his honesty and integrity. so it is
1:05 pm
still an open question ma'am, but i think whether or not or what if he survives this boat, it is likely to be bruising. we know from the past that when the m p i premise is do survive these votes, they have, then i had to step down or left off as a short time later. so this will damage the prime minister regardless of the outcome. and so to be clear, this is not a parliamentary vote, this is a party political matter, but if he loses this confidence vote, will that mean the country loses its prime minister? that indeed will trigger a leadership election. he will not be able to run in that now. a lot of his supporters have said that now is simply not a time for what could be quite a protracted leadership battle. they say that given the situation in ukraine, the cost of living crisis here at home is not the time for something like that. they need some stability here or in the country. that's what they are arguing. they
1:06 pm
say that it would have a huge de stabilizing effects to have this leadership challenge. there are others who say that they simply isn't the man to take the country through those charges. are that charlotte? charlotte shall some hell in london. i had some more stores at making headlines. now, a south korea, i'm united states are fired, 8 ballistic missiles of south korea's east coast. and they say it's in response in response to the north. launching a similar number of short range missiles on sunday. john young has conducted a series of miss our launches this year was in catholics down and voted are of overwhelming me back to our constitutional reforms proposed by president casem jermarta. archive. the referendum pays away for decentralized policy making and the removal of special privileges for the former president, north salt, and as a buyer who has remained influential even after leaving office. vote follows a turbo period in catholics down into

no cripples law were larry montgomery theatre. ukraine says it was a rail facility and invited journalist to tour the plant partially still in flames . and without tanks, this fulfill faithful will it be full and every one can come and few. of course, if there is some conspiracy theory may be good, we'll use next. the next model saying that ukrainian took away thanks for all new facility love you can see wasn't as the details of the strike on keith were being contested, rushes, president flooding their putin warned of new attacks if the west sense long range missiles to ukraine than he whooped, and you still, if long range missiles are supplied, we'll make certain conclusions and use our own means of destruction. we have enough to strike a tockets. we have not yet been hitting them a book. i knew them away from the battlefield. sa lensky thanked troops and handed
1:10 pm
out awards to ukrainian fighters. aiming to boost the military spirits. asked i corresponded dermatitis pulling her in a cave if people were taking those threats from the russian a president. seriously. this is the way russia frames it, sir. they are saying that they have to react to the deliveries of western weapons. and western weapons are certainly a target for russian misses. but people who are well aware that these messages have had, have hit oil storage is food storage is they have hit civilian infrastructure. and though question is, would russia not fire these rockets if there were no western weapons? and i think few people here come to the conclusion that this would be the case. so this rhetoric escalation is nothing that surprises people. right? that meanwhile, and the beast and don bass region, they're heavy fighting is continuing. can you bring us up to date their it's very
1:11 pm
complicated at the moment this i have a fighting in the city of civil or the nets. this is which has been a hot spot for the last few days and weeks, and we've heard yesterday that ukrainians have gained some territory in the city pushing back the russians. now the russians seem to be advancing again pushing back the ukrainians. ukraine has deployed several new battalions there or so foreign fighters as we hear and is definitely going to be one of the, this is of battles in this era. now in this period of the war, her current attacks continue also in other parts along the front line. there has been have been pushes to woods, a sweater here, which is one of the religious centers of the region and also in other front lines. and the visits by zalinski is definitely a clear signal. there are men to encourage the soldiers were under huge pressure, or he said it before. the ukrainian troops might be losing up to $100.00 soldiers
1:12 pm
a day, which is a huge amount. and if this continues like, that would be a very difficult situation for the ukrainian army. so taking the risk, going to the front line is definitely something that is in that would be valued here in ukraine where students, gas made a lot of popularity, has gained a lot of popularity by taking such risks. and you mentioned in passing rush an attack on this of this ancient monastery which present the landscape and was quite vocal about her over the weekend. this was just the latest of many such attacks. of course, what the russians are doing often is that they indiscriminately shell areas and a lot of buildings are being hit by these shells, including churches and monasteries. now this one has a very symbolic meaning. it is one of the of, of, of 2 religious centers of the orthodox church in ukraine. and it belongs to the
1:13 pm
orthodox church. it. there is a split in the orthodox church in ukraine. there is a, an autonomous ukrainian orthodox church. and one that used to be until shortly a few days ago actually be under the moscow patriarchal. they have an hour declared that they are not law any longer under the moscow patriarchal. but this was one of their main spiritual centres. thank you for that methodist medusa. bring her in, keith, a ga has become a haven for russians who oppose the war in ukraine. tens of thousands of fled to the neighboring country where they can stay visa free for up to a year. they w correspondent, a uni rochette, has been to the capital tbilisi to meet a russian exiles who found more freedoms there than at home. the well can drink and blue and yellow is the national colors of ukraine is given to every visitor to this bar into billy's, his old town nato. most guests here are russian citizens who fled to their homeland

1:15 pm
punished for criticizing the war, living and freedom and independence is what attracts many young russians to neighboring georgia. if they came and a one way ticket without the return date. and they have no idea how long they will stay here. romance dish openly condemned to the gore on social media. in addition, the 23 year old i t specialist men to works for customers and brought when russia was thrown out of the international money transfer system. swift, on the western sanctions he felt he could no longer conduct business in moscow. can any ship a chin at the prost alone? of course, economic reasons were decisive for me. i employ 80 people and i thought of them 1st started in wichita debate, which means to load no, but, but there are also political reasons which i don't want to pay taxes in a militaristic, russia, nor do i want to be associated with that country any more i don't want anything to do with it in the future either way and my mentor is it all now,
1:16 pm
the thought so roman stick owes his new beginning to georgia. he sees his future here and the future of thousands of other decent rations as he calls his compatriots, who are openly opposed to the war. that will tell them where i live. oh, or channel go as what we were deprived of many opportunities, many perspectives. welcoming our sister. each to my sister's 14. i don't want her to tie her future to russia. yeah, we have pushed on. what else can we? your militia were bracey. like all russian citizens, roman state can live in georgia for a year without a visa. he doesn't know what he'll do after that. in any case, he has turned his back on his home country forever. all that report from d. w comes from the jury. rashonta jones, a certain are from a rigor. welcome, a yury. tell us some more about the some of the others who left russia. well,
1:17 pm
most of them intellectuals, journalists, i, t specialists, specialists or artists. are probably all of them people who are afraid of ending up in jail for speaking out against the war. doing so can lead to a prison sentence of up to 15 years, jail for what is being called quote, spreading hate use a bar to the russian armed forces and to this is an legitimate fear. there are people who have been convicted of this now that the war there does seem to have a lot of supporter at home. why is that? or there is actually a large part of the population as it has fallen before the official propaganda, and believes that, that russia is indeed liberating their neighboring country from nazi's are in the west. it's difficult to comprehend how strong the effect of propaganda can actually beat. but in russia, we're talking about propaganda that has been pushed out on all state channels for the last or past 20 years. and in this context, be of chorus also have to mention westhal sanctions fill with cherry and forester.
1:18 pm
the impression that with the west is ganging up on russia as it russia is surrounded by enemies. but as of this conflict drex on and to casualties on the russian side, a mounting as well. you can say that dissatisfaction whither the war is growing on all sides of the political, the line, because russian society has been extremely divided by the door there. of course, people in russia that are absolutely against what's happening in ukraine is suffering with the cranium. people, all right, so, so, so that message is getting through and they have been anti war protests. are they gaining momentum? does the crime in seeing these anti will processed at all as threatening not yet, i think because is the number of those who openly dare to protest against the war remains small. this number could rise if western sanctions against russia work and to rush and stake to the streets for economic reasons. ah, but at the moment of these sanctions are working very slowly. ah, russia has huge reserves of gold and money,
1:19 pm
as the rubel has been artificially strengthened. our prices have gone up a bit, but that's not enough to send to support us of the government out onto the street. ah, it will still be a while before the sanctions really starts to bite. at the same time, these sanctions are being exploited as propaganda, as it sees them as a weapons that the west is using in its economic war against russia. and as a result, many are even uniting around putting what's in almost a more important as that what the public thinks is that the reaction of the leads those closest to putin. many of them are feeling the effects of the sanctions because they have lost access to their assets in the west. even they would start an uprising that could be dangerous for putting but at the moment this is also yeah, very unlikely. i thank you for that. uri, uri, rash, saturn, and rigor. let's take a look at so small news from around the world. crowds have gathered to watch the sunrise over omaha beach, in normandy. they were marking the 78th anniversary of
