georgia back trucks on its controversial foreign agents fill. the ruling party says it's dropping the draft law which critics say stifles free speech. and protests over plans to overhaul israel's legal system. walk rhodes near the countries main airport. forcing b is really time minister to take a helicopter to an official meeting. ah. hello, i'm clear, richardson. thank you so much for watching. russia has unleashed a massive missile attack across ukraine, killing at least 6 people. missiles struck residential buildings and knocked out power supply two's operation. europe's largest nuclear power plant, although ukraine says the plant has now been reconnected to the power grid in the capital. keith mer vitale. clutch co said. 40 per cent of residents are without heating following the bombardment. at dawn smoke billows at cross keys.

skyline, the ukrainian capital just one of several regions hit by a barrage of russian missile strikes while people was sleeping. we will come to have very strong explosion. it felt like it had stuck the house next door, or some were very close, but we didn't immediately understand what it, what we ran to the corridor. reduce dolly. i'm fed up with it. i can't stand them any more. no more seattle did. how can you do this? he bought the merchandise houses possible through the names are different and they're not human. i don't know what to call them. the lawyer kick more there. frightening the children for their traumatizing done. if it's, if you couldn't, you couldn't at least 5 people were killed off to a rock. it struck houses in the levine area.

there were also reports of fatalities in the region of cason russian missile strikes and also forced the zapper, which is a nuclear power plant. off the grid. this latest attack on europe's largest nuclear power station is causing huge international can son. this is this 6 time that this up, what is your nuclear power plant has look all off site power and house how to operate in these emergency mold. let me remind you, this is the largest nuclear power station in europe operating for the 6 time or other emergency diesel generators. what are we doing? this was rushes 1st to mass missiles strike since mid february. it says it was targeting ukrainian infrastructure. but yet again,

it's left ukrainians. counting the dead. tis of these correspondent i'm in s f as in the capital keep any earlier told me about the latest on this operation nuclear plant. that's right. seems that this power plant ends up richer, which is the largest in europe, as you heard, was temporarily taken off of the electric power supply that allows it to operate. now they have a system in place that it will automatically start using power from generators that run on diesel. so russia attempted to play down the danger here saying that it's happened before and that the power plant has always remained in stable condition. and now what's important to understand is that russia is now in control, or since the very early on. and the war has been in control of the sap risha nuclear power plant, but it gets its electric supply from the ukrainian grid. so strikes like these from russia can actually take the power plant off the grid,

but we heard what raphael grossi said, and he said that this is just a roll of the dice, that if we allow this to continue to happen, then it's only a matter of time before our luck runs out and tell us more about these missiles strikes, it appears. this is the biggest wave of russian strikes in the last few weeks. can you tell us what kind of damage has been done? it would not be an exaggeration to say that these strikes hid in almost every region in the country. there is 81 missiles launched, and ukraine said they shut down 34 of the missiles, but that's not a good ratio. as you can calculate it, there was a strikes in the south in odessa, there were strikes in the east in har keith, there were strikes in the north and journey of and, and in the west in levine. it was very significant because this is the 1st time since the beginning of the war, that a residential area in the western region of a vive has suffered

a direct hit. now we're hearing reports that 5 people have died after it hit a house there in a suburban area. so perhaps most shocking for residents in far west ukraine, which is very far away from the front line and is not in daily contact with the death and destruction of this war. i mean, you're of course, reporting for us from the capital. keep people woke up there this morning to the sound of explosions. can you give us an update on what the situation is like now? the strikes were very close to the center of the city. this time the explosion was so loud that it shook me awake as i did many other residents here. we know that it struck in 2 regions. one of them hit in an electrical plant that supplies power to the city. so or at least 15 percent of the city were lost, power a 40 percent lost heat. and that's a change from the last few weeks when there is relative calm here. and it's going back to the months over the winter that t of suffered very regular strikes, which caused blackouts. and really reminded people in key if there is no part of

this country as safe as long as russia is continuing its invasion on as a thank you so much for that update in pieces. meanwhile, george's rolling party has been forced to think again, it's announced it will drop. it's controversial or an agent draft bill after international criticism and 2 nights of violent clashes between police and protesters. georgia, formerly part of the soviet union, has applied to become a member of the european union and nato military alliance. the aftermath of the battle between protesters and police is visible on the streets of tbilisi and the demonstrators of one. for now, the ruling georgia dream party is backing down the government chairman confirming that they will attract the draft for an agent law. the critics claim is on democratic ogletree shackleton to legislation we brought out for its 2nd hearing. and during that 2nd hearing, it will fail on let me once again make this political statement or the law will

rome, cut fools, new or sylvia. healthy sluggard. opponents of the george and government say they will hold them to that. what are the, our correspondent maria cut might say in tbilisi, told us more about why this proposed law faced such opposition. the law is widely sienna, russia, for an agent legislation that was introduced in russia, allowed the crumbling to crack down on a civil society. and in georgia, there is a very much of anti crammed in mood and georgia. see this legislation as a put in star legislation as the opposition puts it. so they're really kind of a, they were concerned about russia, the influence, and we've seen on the pro, to people who are saying no to russian law. never back to the u. s. ceasar. so they don't really want to jeopardize their you future by introducing this law as

i sat there towards the authorities job the bail. however, we don't know still, if the law wouldn't be arranged to reduce later in israel, efforts by the new right when government to reform the judiciary have led to widespread protests. the proposed laws would reduce the powers of the supreme court and allow more political influence in the appointment of judges. crowds opposing these plans blocked roads leading to israel's main international airport. the disruption forest, both prime minister benjamin netanyahu, and visiting us secretary of defense, lloyd austin, to change their plans. critics of the reforms have called the proposals, a threat to democracy, and supporters insist they reflect the will of the people. well, our correspondent rebecca readers has been covering the pro trust here is what she told us. yes, certainly, cuz we've been traveling around the country
