12:02 pm
an attack on civilian areas. 3 are giving below 3 missiles on an ordinary residential building. on a 9 story block in which nobody was hiding any weapons, any military equipment or any ammunition that russian propagandists would claim such strikes are aimed at. it was a simple building, housing, a $160.00 people, ordinary people, civilians, to be. the strike also destroyed a recreation camp. a typical camp you'd find in a seaside area. yes, is conscious it deliberately targeted russian terror or, and not some mistake or an accidental missile strike eric nick connelly is they doubly corresponded in key if i asked him earlier about russian claims, then not deliberately targeting civilians or whether they are just missing their intended targets. well, obviously the ukrainians are convinced that this is as you just heard, that from present lensky, tara, this is
12:03 pm
a deliberate attempt to create panic behind the front lines to force ukrainians to basically put pressure on their democratically elected government to make some concessions threatens. and to end these civilian losses. and i think the russians still claim that these are all military targets in the earliest nearby. and it's interesting that the russian state meter is kind of not paying too much said to these isn't trying to hard to talk about what they were supposedly targeting am trying to kind of get away from the story and changed the narrative to something else. there is a sense that they are increasingly where the, how badly displaying internationally and how badly this is doing in terms of their perception, at least outside their borders. and for the most part, i think the question tension is less important. that isn't the question later on for the war crimes investigators. the fact is, russia is willing to risk these civilian losses. ear the civilian casualties, even if they are targeting, as in the case for debtor, they claim a ukrainian anti aircraft systems. they are using missiles that are increasingly
12:04 pm
less precise and older. seems like they're running out of the more modern types of rockets, western sections playing. ready or their russia unable to get the kind of western technology that it was up till recently able to use to build more precise rockets. and he had their strategy at a time where they're not doing pretty well. nice, where they're making small tactical, but not strategic gains. is to put the heat up on the cities behind the front lines in the hope, i guess that ukraine lose its ability to supply its troops in the front lines and to hit morale. so ukraine's ordinary citizens who may be in previous weeks thought they could get back. some commonality are increasingly aware of the fact that the war is going to hit them wherever they are in this country, and that as more advanced western weapons nika, finally landing in the hands of ukrainian fighters. will this better weaponry, allow them to better protect civilians from these kind of attacks? that's been a big breakthrough at least as far as key of sees it that finally they've been promised is now from the u. s. to supply anti aircraft systems, modern and anti air basically systems. and that would also be able to knock out
12:05 pm
missiles because that's been basically ukraine's achilles heel. throughout this, it's been able to keep russian planes out for the most part. and when they do send missiles, they fire them while over the skies of russia, they don't come into ukrainian air space for the most popular to scared. but getting missiles are knocked down or knocked out. the sky has been a major issue. and the us now promising that those miss austin will be here in a matter weeks rod months. germany had pledged a system to but that is expected only in the autumn. i think the example of snake island and that russia's pretty hasty departure. and as we shown, what a game changer those western systems can make, even if there are any supplied in small numbers, we really saw ukraine bitterly able to prevent russia re supplying its troops there . and then to basically pound the island with a rocket r to the systems from the ukrainian shore rather than having to fly planes or drones of the island. so that really in the space, couple of weeks really turn the tables. and the hope here is that as western weapons come in big numbers, that really the same patterns can played out in dumbass in the east. where for now,
12:06 pm
you know, ukraine's been having to take a kind of controlled retreats to avoid losing lots of personnel. they w correspondent, nick connelly and give thanks so much the current has asked a turkey to detain, a russian flag ship that gib says is carrying stolen, ukrainian grain. the cargo ship, he beg, shelly, is currently anchored of the turkish black sea port of colossal ukraine says, sailed from the ukrainian port of berry dance, which is count the underbrush. control here has accused russia a stealing weight and other grains from ukrainian territories occupied by russian forces. or earlier, i asked correspondent dorian jones in a stumble, what we really know about the ship's journey so far. well, it's unclear where this ship has come up because according to the, this international monitoring site that monitors all ships, transponders is ships. transponder only was switched on when it approached
