you more details about that as they come in. those reports though, coming in after ukrainian officials said a strike on a maternity ward in the southern apparition region killed a new born baby on tuesday night. it was pulled from the rubble of what was the maternity ward. this doctor was fortunate to make it out alive, but the russian strike that flattened his workplace did take the life of the baby. he was there to deliver. its mother was rescued. just the latest casualties of yet another attack on a healthcare facility. moscow has long denied targeting hospitals and clinics, but the world health organization has recorded moulton 700 attacks since the start of the war. almost 10 months ago. russia's repeated attacks on energy infrastructure. i'm making it hard for doctors to provide care at those hospitals that are still standing here in has san they're forced to work by

flashlight as they try to save a teenager whose hand was blown off in a russian strike without power for the elevator. he has to be carried up 6 flights of stairs on a stretcher to reach an operating room lit with only emergency lights. glover with misty, it's hard without an elevator, hard without light to get the child to the 6th floor. no water, no heating. working in the dim light, doctors amputate the teenagers left arm. his mother waits nearby, inconsolable he did was they shoot at civilians at children. we didn't call them hair and didn't kill any of their children. so why are they killing ours? but with russian attacks continuing and winter beginning to bite her san residence,

the facing shortages of water, food, and other essentials, many a, making a difficult choice. and joining the governments. voluntary evacuation effort boarding buses to seek safety further from the front lines that cross over to our correspondent nick connelly and keith i. nick, give us more details if you can, on the latest rush and strikes across ukraine was definitely seems to be one of those days of mass attacks across all of ukraine's territory. that the kind of normal pattern will be that the government is pretty st kind of sparse on detail for the 1st couple of hours. not wanting to give the russians to get an idea of how successful they've been in case that allows them then to focus yet more strikes on the a successful hit. but we do get a sense. this is, as has been the case all along in recent weeks, months attacked many on the power and heating infrastructure regarding reports of

a heating power plant here and key of hit also of a hit to a residential building. they were not sure yet that that was the russian massage itself, or if that was a mr. maybe that was shot down by ukraine's air defense. certainly here and here we were getting a la carte. heard some very noisy bangs above us near here in central give em. it's very difficult to tell if that's a defense if that's a missile itself. but if you could see everyone looking around quizzically, kind of question marks in the face, trying to work out what was going on, but not particular panic. that simple thing. now after almost 9 months will people here are taking this dr. this is something that they have got used to, even if you know this is bessie affecting the entirety of ukraine surgery and not only ukraine, but also neighboring mold over that has an energy network that is closely integrated with ukraine's. but even if your craniums are getting a stiff upper lip, it, it looks absolutely freezing where you are neck or how long you think ukrainians can continue to hold up in the face of these strikes and temperatures dropping. let's definitely, i guess, be in the calculation in the kremlin that eventually people will just stop putting

up with it. we'll start going on to the streets and protesting, demanding it, their government comes to some kind of deal with russia to give russia that crucial breather to renew its army. and to basically prepare for more war against ukraine. for now, i'm not seeing that happen. yes, people are complaining. yes, there is a lot of kind of dark humor, lots of gallows humor. lots of means. lots of questions about where you can put a generator. what kind of generator can you put in a balcony where to get the diesel for it? but for now, there isn't a sense that this is a country that is kind of beaten or that is kind of about to give up. there is the issue, the spare parts, then just them are now increasingly having to come from abroad. the supplies he are running out, and there is also criticism that the western promised help isn't getting here fast enough that the psalms are just much too small given the devastation caused by russia. but for now, you don't see people talking about actually leaving. going to western europe, we're leaving their homes here for now. there is a sense that people are going to keep on going in that up to our basically every time this happened to ukraine's and be able to kind of rebuild with in day 23. let's see how long that resilience lawson,

whether this would be possible after this round of attacks. thank you very much. that is our correspondent nick connelly reporting from kit. well, the european parliament has voted to designate russia, a state sponsor of terrorism, pointing to moscow's repeated strikes on civilian targets in ukraine. the move does appear to be largely symbolic, as the e. u does not currently have a legal structure in place for the designation of state sponsors of terrorism. united states by contrast, doesn't have such a system, but it has declined to include russia on it due to concerns that such a move could have unintended legal consequences. to let's hear more about that european parliament resolution. i'm very pleased to welcome one of the many lawmakers who backed it to day survey lego density as a member of the european parliament for the great, thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us. so we'll labeling russia, state, sponsor of terrorism, have a real life consequences or do you think it is purely symbolic i think it does have

consequences, but there will be outside of the legal realm. because as you said, we don't have a legal framework which would define what countries are and what consequences it has. and at the same time, and that's why i voted for this resolution. it was an important sign via our ukranian partners. those who are now hit with a special wave of terror against their infrastructure and against civilians. on the one hand, on the other hand, herb is of you, russia, because this gives a russia a very clear description of what they are doing and it is prescribed and described. there are number one russia employs terrorist means in what it is doing . and russia also supports sponsors terrorists units. if you want to talk about wagner brigades or others, these are terrorist, defacto terrorist units. okay, so this is an important sign of support for ukraine,

but how will it help and the war while we are, as you know, we have various, a whole array of different ways of how we are trying to employ pressure and apply pressure on russia. on the russian government, and this is one of this and, you know, european parliament is not just one and is not alone in condemning terrorist way of how russia behaves. we just had the nato, a parliamentary assembly who just yesterday agreed with the same definition. we had the parliamentary assembly of the council of europe. they all say the same and we wanted to join those voices of international commands. you say russia you are crossing the line, not only because you commit for international crimes and war crimes, i would also say genocidal crimes. but also because the way how you are behaving is

also resembling, increasingly a terrorist actors. and i think this is an important point to emphasize. we never know what consequences that would have in the future. for example, regarding financing the rebuilding of ukrainian state in the future. so does today's resolution and also signal that there can't be any dialogue with russia as long as vladimir putin is in power, because certainly he would not negotiate with a sponsor of terrorism. i think this is precisely the thin line that we're walking here, but the thin line is important and it's also very careful. if you read the resolution itself, you would see that we would like to a severe the diplomatic discourse to the absolute minimum. but absolute minimum is also in under certain circumstances. for example,

the necessity to have some way off talks, for example, regarding employment of certain weapons and kind of mutual reassurance or mutual information regarding using or not using certain arms. and under certain circumstances, it could be also about negotiating certain agreements. so the language of the resolution on that is quite a, quite careful but even if the language there is careful, you're not concerned that this will will burn down those last bridges that may have remained between russia and you listen, russia is burning literally burning. and ukraine, but we are not able and not capable to differentiate that much anymore between the bridges we want to keep or not,

these bridges are being burned by the russian government. we cannot accept that a member of international community is being destroyed now that their citizens are being killed. tortures assured, tortured and raped, and we will keep silence. this is not what european parliament is for, and this is not how we behave so far. so now we are saying what is logical to say that this way is unacceptable, inhumane and outside of the civilized norm of the international community. ok, thank you so much for taking the time for speaking with us. that is member of the european partner for the greens survey. we can bring you up to speed now with some of the other stories making news around the world. a 16 year old student has been killed and at least 18 people injured, following explosions at to boston in jerusalem. the nail bombs were detonated about
