ah, multiple black rocks, central keys during morning rush hour with who should alabama. civilian targets were struck in the barrage of strikes. the 1st to hit the capital in months. but i will thrust those with you in the morning. we were woken up with this greeting from our neighbors and russia. you know, that you see all this here and across the entire city, almost through his yes. you should force him order rel, anna, fortune war putin. these a synonyms from us, for the more we hope for our victory killer them, we're live with. this is a tragedy, not just as the civilians who are dying, but also for the military that are the all for the sake of a whim of one idiot who leads russia or c. u career. ukraine's president accused russia of trying to wipe his nation from the face of the earth.

speaking on the streets of keys, he said this strikes were time to inflict maximum damage when they progress. thank you. the one a crate, panicking chaos. not they want to destroy our energy system is made. the 2nd target is people return noble. they deliberately chose such a time and such targets in order to cause as much harm as possible. but we are ukrainians. we help each other. we believe in ourselves. we will restore everything that was destroyed on several other cities far from the front lines were also rocked by explosions. zelinski says energy infrastructure across the country was targeted in the western city of live electricity and hot water were cut by the black. people across ukraine are now taking shelter as they brace for a potential new phase in russia's war. while earlier i asked our correspondent in key funny fish are what she witnessed this morning. i was getting ready for the day

when i heard the 1st explosions. and 1st i didn't even attribute to explosions just later on. and i called my colleagues right away who were on the way to the office to find out what the effort to confirm. but i'm actually right because it was just so unusual. in fact, the last time i've heard such a big band was on february 24th when the full scale invasion of russia started. but then of course, we are generally so what do we do? you want to find out what exactly has happened. so we rushed to the scene where he sold burn cars. really, really, if you looked at those cars, you could hardly imagine that anybody has gotten alive from those called racks. also, we have seen a huge crater in the middle of this road, which is quite frequented, especially during russia also by us pretty much every day because it's in the city center. and what i've seamless chaos people panicking at the same time trying to understand where they should go. word do you actually feel safe and protected?

and while i was trying to find out via an eye witness a, what exactly he has experienced, we heard more explosions. so everyone was try to look for shelter, literally running for the lives saudi to we, and it pretty much if you are now looking around and you've seen the streets are quite empty. a people are inside and they are actually call them by the government . and, and government officials to stay inside today. in fact, right now, also there's an air raid active air raid alert, which means you have to stay in the shelters, which of course we're also going to do a shortly after this terrifying, still funny and i'm glad you're okay. so what, what's known about these attacks, what is known, factually that these may a cruise missile stat keefe city. i was struck by a but also zalinski, a presidency. lensky mentioned the so called a comcast. drones are which are basically a drones that drop on a specific target and injure whatever the target is. and when it comes to the

injuries, when you look at those targets to date and these were civilians, again who had to bear the brunt of for something that is really a very brutal attack on key of city. as i say, something that the city hasn't witness for quite a while and people are really worried just what is next. what else russia president put in. it has planned as he's saying he wants to retaliate, and he's seeking revenge for the fact that the crimea bridge or was hit over the weekend, something that he accuses ukraine for funny. it's not just in cave and were received these images from today. multiple cities of sites have been hand across the country . tell us more. exactly about h t, missa cruise missile attacks. that's after all the, the official number that the government is working with. 80 missile attacks here across ukraine. half of them are on 40, willing to separate, but regardless,

as various infrastructure has been hit across the country via talking about towns likely v. for example, in the western part of ukraine or him in it's in the center. really, towns a bit relative the space from attacks, but also of course, upper e. j city that's been shalt heavily over the course of this war, especially during the past couple of days has experience attacks again and sue me, which is a neighboring a russia. so attacks all across a ukraine that really appears to be an orchestrated attack, a by russia over the entire country. but also when you call, if you look at the targets, it's not just civilian infrastructure. also it's very much civilian a, sorry, infrastructure that is needed like power a water ad that's been hit that energy infrastructure. so it's not just the fact it a people are scared to go outside, but once you're inside your building, you're trying to figure out, ok, what's next? how am i going to get electricity for the, for today? how am i going to get access to the very basics, for example, as internet,

to be able to keep in touch with you colleagues with your friends trying to come up with an emergency plan? because as i say, nobody really knows just what's next. truly dreadful. thanks for funny data abuse. funny for sure. in cave earlier ukrainian journia journalist already see a root can told me what she experienced in the western city of the thieves, which was also struck by miss alt this morning actually woke up to the flow explosion. and as it was, they came to go into the shelter, so check to look for the window. and so my husband and i show some small it's a direction of the fitness center. and i can be hook monmouth, and in the shelter we went to the shelter in the church, the church, and around like 100 people or less. but by the hook and really powerful extension

because as oak tricity infrastructure facility, which was hit, it's actually located in our district just less than one kilometer off. and more and more people arrived. and we heard one more rooted schools. and now even before we were in the basement, it was really huge, involved. and in to all us, all over, all $300.00 people in the shelter much from what i experienced everyone was go and spoke, but it's like more than papa your interest of war and be both more adopted now. and a lot of children 1st that goes to school is just across this church and really little children like their primary school. by there are children, read different. so many of them crying somebody just plain. so it's really like every person says different directions. ukrainian journalist

studies. yeah. who's come from movie speaking to me earlier? well, ukrainian, president of a lot of mirrors, lansky has asked the leaders of germany and france to step up the pressure on russia. he's also urging his people to stand firm ukrainians. ukrainians this morning is tough, that we are dealing with terrorists dozens of miss isles. iranian showerheads that they have to targets energy facilities throughout the country. keep region uncommon, ascii levine and the ne pro vinitez here. woman, yvonne oh frank eaves, region supper asia on the sumi region khaki region. see to me region q of rod region, the site of the country with him. with that novel, they want panic and chaos is of they want to destroy our energy system where they are incorrigible grain. the 2nd target is people the time when the targets were especially chosen to cause as much damage as possible, but we're ukrainians. we will help each other. we believe in ourselves. we will

restore everything that is destroyed. there may be temporary, par, i things know that, but there will never be an outage of our confidence. our confidence is victory will be why so strikes exactly. the enemy wants us to be afraid, wants to make people run, but we can only run forward and we demonstrate this on the battlefield and it will continue to be so in the rescuers are working now. our air defense system is working. 38 aerial targets have already been shot. dying enough. please stay in shelters to day. thanks for the help of our military. everything will be fine and always remember ukraine existed before this enemy appeared, and ukraine will exist after it, jury to ukraine. well, well, let's me, can i to andrey or sad shook in keith. he's a member of the ukrainian parliament for the opposition voice a party. welcome to d w. so what can you tell us about the targets that were here today at russia says it was actually targeting key energy and military command facilities. good

evening, it fits good evening and i'm not sure that everyone is familiar with the geography of queue. but i recently had a discussion with one journalist from united kingdom and i told him so if fed to had to make an ipad at all with, with london for example. so the places of attacking you today was something like a hyde park corner in london. meaning that is actually the heart of the cd. it's a pod zone though, the cd. you just next to to university buildings and to the university library, where by the way i was studying years ago. so it is absolutely sandra diesel residential area of the capital of your rate, which has, for the moments about, i think 2.5 are almost 3000000 people inside regular civilians who was just on the street were killed. so regular civilian cars was durned, and it is definitely an act of terrorism days on international law. so if

a respect and the rules of international order, and if a respect international law, we shall, did very, very clear. it was the act of terrorism, alva international and the act of international gripe. tell us what effect the strikes are having on the ukrainian people ah, from the thickness logical point of view, feel on me to say so the, the strike was quite extended as a journalist already reported. so more than 80 me sales a very, very different type as bill launched the new great about 50 percent or something a little bit more was shut down. but that asked at alive 2 different cities of ukraine. and yes, i can confirm that this some infrastructure object work toward damage, especially electricity is mostly the damage was the western ukraine. again,

as you reported to leave you a key of for the moment i am speaking to you from my apartment to the senior center . so alo, electricity, hot water, everything is the operating where well, from another side the target of living pudding was again to make us afraid. he's repeating the same logic as since you did in february 24 because the original plan was to make a scary and make us run away. but we're still alive simply because we had another freight and we fight. and i believe that these new style attacks is another signal for your brain in society to be even more consolidated to fight. and i hope that all our allies will understand these attacks on the same way. we shall be much more consolidated because depending on this consolidation, the duration of this war depends. so what we shall shin is this as fast as possible because as you see, every day is alive of innocent people. now,

how do you view vladimir putin's claim that the strikes rock hammer? it's holly ation for the attack on the curse bridge to crimea, which russia has blamed on ukraine because actually ukraine is saying that these attacks could have been planned before. that incident booting is in very, very complex situation because 2 days ago, the most protect it, sexual object in russia was excluded. and i'm sure that with an attack of ukraine, today's attack of ukraine. he saving his reputation in the eyes of heath ganske, that of t d ga sir. that will thread it in yas, during weeks. but everyone understand that crimea breach and crimea is so the diamonds in the crown of he is a dictatorship. and the fact that the bridge was exploded, dramatically influenced richard asian of food and inside of his country. so today

he was showing to, he's friends to his below mirrors that he still can act and he still can defend his interest. but i'm sure that inside of the russia there, he used problems in leadership. and i still think that very soon the story can be and that, that, and expectedly, because majority of the uprooting so called friends, they're not a huge. they want to leave long and had to live with billions of dollars, and what to do is now doing is absolutely opposite to their plants. tell us briefly if you could that the french president to menu on the cron says that the strike signal a profound change in the war. how should the west respond? first of all, there is no dick a surprise for rush. everyone who is there watching this program shall remember that for 7 months to draw, russia was shelling a ukrainian citizen, the villages some citizen villages just used to exist. so that's why it was not

a surprise for the west. the very simple russian economy and russia shall be switched off from global markets because as long as we are fighting with arms and without what people, the west shall fight with economical sanctions, sanction shall be tough and real. that's the way how we shall speed up the victory in this war. andy, or such a member of the ukrainian parliament, thank you for joining us on d. w. well, world leaders have condemned the russian strikes the french president monroe micron says the attack signal that moscow is escalating the war. you spoke with you about him zalinski on the phone this morning at length. i will hold a meeting as soon as i return from my end, i would have to be up at unit to speak in an appropriate setting. obviously fronds as i had the opportunity to do this morning, has condemned in the strongest times russia celebrate strikes on the whole of ukraine and territory against civilians which is

a profound change the nature of this world. and i am shocked and appalled by this vicious attack on p. f and other ukrainian cities fresh at once again as shown to the world. what it stands for, it is carol and brutality. those who are responsible have to be held accountable, will morning, the victim. and i said my heartfelt condolences to our ukrainian friend, i know you crane you will not be intimidated, and ukrainians know that we will stand by your side, their side as long as it. all right, well china, on the other hand, has not condemned russia. instead calling for restraint. we have taken note of that i live in japan and hope the situation can deescalate soon think whether the one the german defense minister, christina lam heist has said that germany will deliver the 1st a for iris t s l m. air defense systems to ukraine within days,

the renewed miss all fire on cave and many other cities shows how important it is to supply ukraine with air defense systems. quickly. what i asked dw political corresponding julia. so deli weathered the german system could have protected ukraine from the latest attacks. let's take a listen. it is germany's most modern and most expensive air defense system. now, it isn't with germany's military, germany's army with the boone, this v, i had to be produced specifically now for ukraine. that is why, even though the defense system was promised all the way back in june, is only now being delivered the 1st of 4 in the next few days. the other 3 are expected to come gradually over the next year. and this is a system that can shoot down missiles and can, has a range of up to 40 kilometers in distance and 20 kilometers in height. and we've heard from german chancellor,

all of shots that it can protect entire important cities. so we can assume that it could have played a role in the attack in ukraine today. but looking also at the words coming from germany's defense minister that we just heard that the attacks today show that it is important to quickly deliver these defense system. it appears clear that they are sorely needed in ukraine at the moment that julia chancellor schoultz has already spoken to president zalinski. what can you tell us about the cool you know, the call happened shortly after the attacks and we heard both from zalinski and from the german side, that what was discussed is, was that all of shawls expressed germany solidarity with ukraine and strongly condemned russia's attack against a different ukrainian cities or the lensky of the ukrainian president also made clear that he will take part in a meeting tomorrow of the g 7, a virtual meeting that was called today urgently,

and that he will there outline rushes behavior in rushes attack today against ukraine and it is expected that ukraine will again, push for more deliveries of happy heavy weapons from western countries and germany has said they are prepared to support further weapon deliveries, but also aid to help rebuild the destroy infrastructure in today's attack. thank you. julia. julia suddenly took your political correspondent let's have a look at some other developments related to the ongoing war in ukraine. better routes is forming a joint unit with the russian army leader alexander sankoh. claims to have received intelligence suggesting ukraine was planning to attack about a routine territory or the head of german. germany's national security agency is facing intense scrutiny over allegations he has ties to russian intelligence services. a television investigation claim to honor shewn bomb started

a cyber security group linked to a former russian agent. with vladimir putin has confirmed what many suspected that the strikes against ukrainian cities are in retaliation for the attack on the crimea bridge. the link between russia and the occupied peninsula was opened just 4 years ago as a flag ship project for moscow. picking up the scraps at the sight of a bridge that stood as a symbol of moscow's illegal annexation of crimea. saturday's powerful blast caused the strategic bridge to partially collapse, disrupting travel. and what is the only direct link between russia and a crimea in peninsula? a queue of cars stretched 22 kilometers on monday. some passengers said they'd been waiting for up to 12 hours with them. it's carrie that we have to go home. the bridge is now open for transport,

but only to vehicles weighing less than $3.00 tons. vehicles wearing more will have to cross by ferry. russian president vladimir putin has blamed ukrainian secret service agent for the blast. calling it a terrorist act. he has vowed to rebuild the bridge. ukrainian military intelligence says today, strikes were planned before the coach bridge bombing at the weekend. i spoke to military analyst frank light, which and asked him about that claim. yes, papa, that does make sense. there were 80 strikes launched today according to the ukranian military of which about half were shot down. that's a pretty, pretty significant target said to circle not would have taken quite a bit of planning to put that coordinated into i was, it was coordinated assault together. so that's not something i think would've been planned or run up yesterday. what melissa speculation, what might have happened is with the new commander that you spoke of earlier,

sort of sort of a lot of the order may have come from him to deliver that attack today. or occasion by the bridge, but i'm, i'm fairly certain that the attack will have been planned and staffed long before that. right. frank? no. vladimir putin is threatening a harsh response to more ukrainian attacks. what, what do you think he's trying to achieve with that message? well, that's very clear, this is an old and tested and failed military strategic instrument morale bombing, british tried against germany. we tried it against the britain, americans started again, serbia, and many times in between. it just doesn't work. the russians would really know better. so let me grab was the longest and that you see in history and what there either. and it's certainly not going to work here. a friend of mine in texted me this morning, a good friend. and she said that the only emotion is cold fury

and determination. to put 210 in the same place, we put the musk and his bridge. look how the russian mind has diminished. and that kind of response is what you're going to get is what you've heard all day from your correspondence in here. and that's what frank does. this look like. vladimir putin is seeing how desperate things are you crying for the russian military. and it's essentially the acts of a desperate man. yes, the russian military company is clearly failing and they are flailing for a response. they run shackle forces in the south, which have been cut to pieces by the ukrainians over the last 6 or 7 months of finding it extremely difficult to hold back. a credit advance is particularly in the curse on region and towards another cocker. it's a very important place that's where the can now to the crimea,

stars that they make and they only response they have is this attack on civilians are rather desperate attempt to undermine morale. it's going to the us military analyst, franklin, which speaking to me earlier. well, here's a reminder of the new story we've been following for you. dozens of russian missiles have hit ukrainian cities, including the capital key. at least 11 people have been killed. vladimir putin says the strikes are retaliation for the attack on a key bridge between russia and the occupied crimean peninsula. there has been international condemnation of the strikes. the european union describes it as a war crime. china is quoting for a d escalation of the worth. well, that's all for me for now. next is our science magazine tomorrow. today with a look at the unthinkable life without
