8:06 am
now and we have been able to established a line to mathias billing on d. w correspondence in odessa. but he is ukranian president polity. mr. lensky has announced mandatory evacuation of the donnette screen. it region. what is behind this order? was the authorities have called on people to leave the region already in april, expecting heavy fighting there, but 20 to 30 percent of the population have refused to leave these off an elderly people. but not only now the government is saying 50000 children have stayed behind in the don bus with their families. and the government expects fighting to intensify and also as winter will be approaching in some months. and there's no heating anymore in the region because the guy gas supply that pipelines have been destroyed, they are now for organizing this mandatory evacuation. our
8:07 am
citizens can stay behind if they sign a form that they take, take full responsibility for that. so this is not a forced evacuation, but it is a mandatory evacuation that is intended to increase pressure on them to leave the region because the government says it wants to protect them. it does not want to leave them behind. and if he is for their life and how big an operation would this be? how many people are we talking about here? well, it's very hard to say, we don't have the exact figures. the government has had $50000.00 children plus their families plus some elderly. so expect this to be in the hundreds of thousands may be 2, maybe 300000, but that's estimates. we don't really have a clear number. so it will be a very big operation, but the roads are open so it should be possible. ukraine has evacuated people from

that is presumably a in a prison, not in a position, but that is meant to land on the beaches here in the south of ukraine. these beaches have been mine, the waters have been mine. so this is not a possible scenario at this moment, but it is a threat from the c. now let's search on the story that we have been following this week, and they attack on a prisoner of war camp in a lead and levia where more than 50 ukrainian soldiers were killed in an air strike . russia now says they have invited to you and, and the red cross to investigate what happened. how likely is it that they will be allowed to investigate fairly well here in ukraine? the assessment is that it's not very likely because russia might not have an
8:10 am
interest in or bringing transparency to that case here in ukraine. people are convinced that this has been organized by the russians. it's a staged attack ukrainian army says it has not fired any rock rock in this direction. or we are seeing a lot of o s in open source intelligence or pictures, satellite images of the damage that also seem to pointer or that seem to, to, to, to exclude that this has been carried out by a high mass rocket. that's the what the russians have been saying, one of these new american rockets that ukraine has gotten recently because the damage would be much bigger if this had really been a high mass rocket. ukraine has also published intercepted phone calls or fighters of these pro russian republics. the pro russian donetta republic, which are also discussing that this cannot be, have been a rocket strike. but the,
