4:01 pm
a dangerous journey. our correspondence meets people that are crossing point on the front line. we're hoping to make it to safety. and germany's foreign minister makes her 1st visit to india and melina bab, off and her counterpart in delhi, under school, that country shared values. and they signed a new joint agreement on migration. ah, i'm and he keeps mckinnon. thanks. so much for joining us. we begin in ukraine where air raid sirens have been sounding across the country as russia launches a new wave of asterix, a spokesperson for the ukranian air force has warned civilians to take shelter so far as no word on casualties or damage. russian plains reportedly fired more than a 100 missiles targeting key infrastructure in ukraine. these later stripes come
4:02 pm
just hours after multiple explosions, a 2 military bases deep inside russian territory. hundreds of kilometers from the border with ukraine. c, w correspondent. net calmly, isn't he? then i asked him to tell us what else is known about these latest explosions. well, so as for what happened in russia early this morning, there has been a lot of speculation so far. we're all basing our kind of assumptions on social media. it, as we've seen, where you can in some of them see, can flash and explosion in the night sky. others, you can hear a big bang and we've heard respectably from the russian civilian governor of the region of south of that no civilian targets were hit, implying that some military targets had been as for the other basin that is on which, as we said, only about a $150.00 clumps away from moscow. there we had, the official version is that an oil tanker was hit and that several people lost their lives as part of that. but that seems to kind of fit the pattern we've been seen time and time again. when you crane inflicts are kind of painful defeat or
4:03 pm
people kind of attack on russian forces, unexpectedly, they 1st come up with all kinds of different explanations before then coming toward some kind of general broader line to explain away what's happened. we still don't know whether these would drones or where these were ukraine missiles, but definitely this has set people in russia off. they are very, very where you people who are for this war. they just didn't think that they were that vulnerable. and you can have the capacity to hit targets that far away from the border. so nothing official the and yet from the russian government or the ukrainian government we've seen a good social media accounts connected to the current military military bloggers kind of making kind of ironic references to what's going on. the you are using contra small is obviously not going to take responsibility for this now. but we had heard in recent days from the cranial authorities that they were testing newer, long distance drones. so that, you know, potentially could be the 1st usage here. and it has be said, this is the 1st time that you can has it targets in rush o. b. not that far away from border this about 600 kilometer away from the border.
4:04 pm
and switch to that base of angles is kind of crucial to rushes. military, it's the base where the bombing bomber planes that would then flight the caspian sea to launch these missiles are seen today. that's where they're based. it's where bases, equipment connected to russia's nuclear capability are based. so the fact that russia seemingly unable to defend this from ukraine, drones, is a big, big problem. vladimir putin. ok, so ukraine potentially able to hit targets in russia, but there's no question. is there of ukraine being able to, to close its own air space? i mean, we're hearing current airway, air, raid warnings across the entire ukrainian territory. right now that's certainly true. and as we were led to believe that this really was a very big wave of strikes this afternoon, comparable to kind of some of the only a few of the got away the tech to we've seen over the past month or so. and we're still expecting more, more results to be fired so far does seem like ukraine's and geography missile
4:05 pm
systems are doing pretty well. but certainly, there are reports of strikes which in the south, the country around odessa support each of those kind of places and a sense that lots of places are having to switch off their power, their heating system as a precaution to prevent them overloading. so you can see here it's pretty chilly where i'm here. so lots of very difficult hours and days ahead for lots people here in ukraine. x, thanks so much. that's net con, late reporting from keith. since the south of russia's invasion earlier this year crossing between russian occupied areas and the rest of ukraine has become difficult and dangerous. but there is one spot about 30 kilometers south of the city of jap parisha, an informal corridor with police checkpoints where police can cross the front line, t w's. young phillips shots met some ukrainians, trying to flee russian held territory. just a few kilometers down there. the russians are in shops. this check point is the only place in ukraine where people can move between the 2 worlds. this man is the
4:06 pm
1st to leave russian occupation to day. he tells us he hung on as long as he could . but now he's going to join his wife and west a new crate. pretty secret to fuqua crossing this line is very unpleasant for everyone yet. there was just no road. everyone is scared. yet it was more like sailing the drive and look at my car. more car, so life and every one wait for the police to escort them to the registration center and o. glad i doesn't quite make it to the checkpoint but it's done. the most important thing to women join forces to get them mother's house at the russian, florida. murray austin could be with you at 1st. my mom didn't want to leave. we all thought this would somehow and soon, but it's not ending. and now the winter is coming. so good. she just wouldn't be there on her own. when your soul hurts so much,
4:07 pm
you can't even sleep any more. she's the most precious thing i have left at la mayfield. while asana takes a look at the engine, her friend alicia tells us of their whole ra road clamber fighting, had wrecked so many roads and bridges and those to wear, leaving at to pick their ways through farmland. literally for you don't block a little, we just cried when we saw how everything was destroyed. afterwards, we just sat in the car on frost and looked in silent. you are you doing this morning? but santa has worked a miracle on her car and they joined the convoy heading for the registration center . they arrive, it's warm and there's tea. the women realize the worst is behind news just of when i'm really happy. now. i'm glad that i could bring my mother to a safer place and that we got here in one piece. it's your school. it's been very hard. you know, i wouldn't wish this on anyone,
4:08 pm
a people to stay with here tonight. the plan for tomorrow is to leave the law and take a train or bus even a sex. there's the crane, a country director, the norwegian refugee council. it's a humanitarian organization that supports displaced people in an outside ukraine. i ultimately what the ukrainians his organization is helping a saying about life in russian occupied areas. well it's, it's very difficult to journey. we were there. we have teams deployed that in support each year at the, at the registration center. we see them arrive every day. he's not in the numbers that he used to be 2 months ago. it is about a 1500 people used to cross on
4:09 pm
a daily basis from non government control areas. he's a government control areas. and at the moment, in only between 20300 families cross it or i are able to, to cross to, to government control areas. and there are stories are very similar, very similar to ones that we just heard. it's very difficult. it's very difficult to get to the point, it's very difficult to cross over and i was that to 2 weeks ago. and then do the convoys a convoy coming from my viewpoint. and basically the family's got a very hard choice to make either staying matthew palm trees or try to reach the government control area. so that's, that's what they did. and the but it was
4:10 pm
a long journey. can i ask if we know that millions of ukrainians have already fled the war, the constant russian attacks on, on critical infrastructure causing regular power outages? do you think they will push many more people to try to leave? leave the country. i mean, it is what it is, a high probability that they will. i mean, at the moment it's almost a 1000000 refugees across europe in more than 7000000, internally displaced and atheist continues. the situation is already dramatic. and as you know, and it is the russian federation continues to, to strike it. civilian infrastructure, he's in, so me going to get worse. as you said, 8000000 refugees across europe. if more are coming,
4:11 pm
are ukraine's neighbors ready and prepared to accept many more refugees? well i hope they are, because in so far, i think the hosting countries have been very generous and i hope they will continue to, to be in the, in the coming months. especially doing this. this is what we expect to be very long when 2 months ahead of us, especially for those families along living in villages along the contact line. and those living in villages in and cdc, non government control areas where we have no, no access. all right, well have to leave it there, but thanks so much for your time, rebecca, that i faxed it from the norwegian refugee council. thank you. take
4:12 pm

4:13 pm
economic hardship and to cool for president charlotte, sad to step down and germany's foreign minister and lena bab, oak is on a 2 day visit to india, is her 1st official trip to the country in a joint press conference with india's foreign minister, s j shankar. both stress the shared values of the 2 countries. and babylon laid out what she considered to be the global challenges that they both face. the pair signed a new agreement between berlin and deli, on my migration and mobility, or the, the added, we will further diversify. and this is one of the points in our china strategy, which had already been laid out in the, in the pacific strategy. especially in the, in the pacific region, and that is a huge potential for european and for german company flow. until now they're focused with mainly on china, but also already on india, on japan too. but not at all on a lot of neighboring countries. here not by the name of india and germany have
4:14 pm
a long history of flows and warmed relations. so we are marketing the 17th to your, of the establishment of diplomatic relationship last year. and our strategic partnership, which is more than 2 decades old, has really been bolstered by our great our political exchanges. ever expanding trade, more investment and a stronger people to people relationship an error. i spoke to w south asia bureau chief and rita cima in delhi. and she told us more about the migration deal and what it means for the relationship between india and germany. hi, annette. this agreement for mobility and migration was the centerpiece of the joint press conference at the to foreign minister had this afternoon. that statement of intent to for this agreement was signed in 2019. it's only now that they've actually gone ahead and signed it. and the m is really to encourage and facilitate
4:15 pm
mobility and employment opportunities between the 2 countries and to encourage an exchange of talent and skills. the idea also was that the relations between the german and indian government have been very good over the past decades. the aim was to take this to a new level and encourage people to people contacts so that they could put a little more flesh of the structure that the 2 governments have built over the past decades. so it's about strengthening links, economic ties with deli, at a time when relations with china. a weakening is germany essentially trying to replace china with india. with china was a big topic of discussion between the 2 foreign ministers and the german foreign minister. in fact, listening to what she had to say, it seemed like a pivot away from china and a pivot towards india and a letter bareback said that in germany jain as increasingly viewed as a competitor and a systemic rival india. on the other hand, she said was
4:16 pm
a partnership based on shared values and goods and there was more transparency and trust because india is a large democracy. and therefore, she was keen that this partnership should be deepened on friday, the, the e, the g 7 and australia agreed, a price cap on russian oil. could this potentially be an issue given that germany and india have rather different approaches to the war in ukraine? certainly this was an area that they didn't agree on. in fact, the indian foreign minister was specifically asked a question on this at the press conference. and he gave a very robust response. and he said, what he said in the past, his responsibility is to the people of india to the consumers in india, india is a country which is energy hungry. it imports a vast amount of its oil and crude oil and russia is offering discounted rates to india. so key says that just as the european union mix choices which suit it
4:17 pm
strategic interest, he says that the european union and the western countries should accept that india is also making strategic choices, which are the interests of its people. and re, to, thanks so much that state of new south asia bureau chief am retired cima. the markets across asia have responded positively to new reports that chinese cities a continuing to loosen covered restrictions indexes in hong kong and toko war among those to rise on monday cities like nan ging and chung ching a rolling back testing requirements including for public transportation. these moves follow reports of widespread unrest last week against lockdown measures. beijing has not, however, officially reversed. it's strict 0 cobit policy that led to the lockdown of shanghai and other major urban centers. earlier this year, the police are out in force on beijing straits. it's been awake since hundreds of
4:18 pm
people gathered here to protest against china's 0 coven policy. many of them have since been tracked down and intimidated by police. meanwhile, some cities are relaxing their strict coven rules. in beijing, many stores have reopened and some infected people can now self isolate at home. instead of in government facilities. chinese state media have begun reporting that the army cron variant is less dangerous than previous strains. the sudden shift has left some residents confused about what to allowed and what will happen next. sorry, i don't know. according to liz, worse, i think, oh, still wait for an open door. a has yard right now. it's having an impact on our everyday lives and our work as things open up,
4:19 pm
i hurt that our lives become easier. again. yeah, we sound but many rules are still in place. parks and schools are closed in some beijing neighborhoods. restaurants can only offer take away, and some contacts of covert cases are still forced to quarantine. after almost 3 years of tough restrictions, different rules, a lift did and in force as china grapples with reopening. now the biggest criminal trial in belgium history has opened in brussels. 10 men stand accused of involved involvement in the 2016 terror attack on the airport and a subway station in the city. the left dozens dead and hundreds more injured. a trial is sure to revive painful memories for those who lost loved ones who were injured or who witnessed the attacks. with a $900.00 survivors, a registered plaintiff, several 100 will testify. multiple defendants have already been found guilty of involvement in the paris terror attacks of 2015,
4:20 pm
which left 130 people dead. and our correspondent terry schultz is following the trial for us. and i asked her why it took more than 6 years to get the proceeding started. that's right. it's been 6 and a half years a very long time for those survivors and family members to wait when they're so desperate to see justice served for these attacks. that as you said, killed 32 people and wounded hundreds. it's very difficult to build a case against 10 men who are accused of being part of a secret terror cell located here in brussels. one of them in fact, is being tried in absentia because he's believe to have been killed in syria fighting for his law make state so quite difficult to gather forensic evidence. and another reason is that this is a jury trial, and so you need a dozen people who are believed to be unbiased and can take leave of their lives for the many months. this trial is expected to last and you need 20 for alternate. so that took authorities, interviews with more than
4:21 pm
a 1000 people. and as you mentioned, half of these defendants have already been tried and convicted for involvement in the paris attacks. so belgium needed to wait for france to finish up that process before the these defendants could be transferred. here to start trial, incredible complexity. the initial trial start date was delayed because of complaints from the defendants about the way that they were being treated. what, what can you tell us about that? that's right. we were here once before in october when we thought things would get underway. but at that point, the accused said that they were being treated unfairly because they were going to be made to sit in individual glass boxes in the courtroom. they said this made them look guilty before the trial even started. they also said in more practical manner that this is difficult to communicate with their lawyers like that. so the presiding judge took these complains under consideration, and she agreed with them. so now the courtroom has been reconfigured, so the defendants are all sitting together behind a glass wall in sort of a big glass box,
4:22 pm
and they're able to communicate with their lawyers who are sitting right in front of them. but even to day we heard complaints again. they say they are not being treated with respect the lawyer for one of the defendant said that his client is being subjected to body cavity searches, even though he's in strict isolation and couldn't possibly get his hands on anything to hide. another of the accused says that he's being forced to listen to c tannic music in the headphones he's forced to wear as he transferred from the prison to the courtroom. so yes, so they still are not happy with the way they're being treated, but the judge says she doesn't have control over any of these measures in the trial . we'll go ahead just to quit last question. do we have any idea how long the trial is expected to last? when we might be expecting a verdict? yeah, the proceedings of the procedures themselves will take a very long time. there are more than $400.00 pages of the case to be read out before you even get into prosecution defense witnesses, survivors and expert testimony. but the judge said today she hopes to have this all
4:23 pm
