a peace plan to end the war. but many in the west remain skeptical. oh, navigating a new reality. the central theme of this year's munich security conference. nearly a year after russia invaded its neighbour, ukrainian president followed him, is the lensky remains resolute. and there is no alternative to ukrainian victory. there is no alternative to ukraine, and in the e u, there is no alternative view grain in nato. as russia ramps up it's offensive in ukraine's east, european leaders made it clear that piece will have to come on keith's terms. typically, i think very important is nothing about ukraine without ukraine of ukraine fighting for its independence and serenity. that has to decide at what time they want to sit down at the negotiation table with the aggressor. but as the war drags on with no

end in sight, attention also turned to the wider global implications of the conflict. western nations may have united behind ukraine, but the wider world remains divided secretary general. when all of the jing is watching closely, the war in the greater vehicles have present to the winds there. it will impact the calculations on the decisions they will make a engaging for. it's part of china announced it would forward a piece proposal for a political solution to the conflict, but many in europe remain skeptical to don't as you button china has taken side very clearly assigned the unlimited friendship agreement with russia. so it has taken a specific position. we should keep that in mind. china is not neutral toward the whole process. as we are not neutral, we are backing of course ukraine. many fear the, china's proposals will include terms that ukraine and the west cannot accept,

making it even more difficult to rally global support for a ukrainian victory. and as diplomats discussed military aid in unit ukrainian soldiers were keeping russian forces in check along a front lines with a stepped up russian assault expected to coincide with the anniversary of the beginning of the war. next week, the need for weapons and training couldn't be greater. these ukranian troops near the town are severe. ask you said time away from the fighting to hone their shooting skills. they will soon put them to use the trenches. after months on the back foot, russian forces have gone on the offensive, talking at several points along a vast frontline, stretching from the black sea to but a ruse. they have made little progress, but their firepower is a problem for ukrainian defenders for them. but we have one artillery about 4 mile

all with either the russians can do it 5 times more. so it's very difficult for the guys who are standing as special ed, the 1st line. they feel it too much. russian artillery is targeting civilians to what? in the town of holiday, this elderly woman recalls the moment a shell hit her apartment block. don't walk, no. i don't got the shell entered here. is it not? and i was standing in the corner both bosky spoke. of the fridge fell unto me, probably one and i was dragged out from beneath it. when you were not irina, the daughter of the neighbor got me out of the fridge somehow covered me wondering a little pickle civilians living in areas under russian attack. no only fear the shelling in the harsh winter cold. they also lack heating and food residents in the city of cope. yonce rely on food parcels brought in by volunteers,

which we want to russia to leave us. why are they tal? mounting us for what? why are they torturing us? after almost a year of war, residence or bracing for further hardships in the embattled towns of eastern ukraine? let's have a look now as some of the other stories making headlines around the world. syrian state media say in israeli air strike has killed at least 5 people in the capital, damascus. rockets destroyed a building in an area known to house syrian security installations. the u. s. japan and south korea have stage to join air force exercise a day after north korea test fired an intercontinental ballistic missile. john may jonya rather says it launched the rocket as a warning to washington and saw miss i landed in the sea off japan.
