a direct connection to the political climate in japan. the tac last year had a very specific reason. the attacker last year wanted to point out of political failure with regard to a sect that was very prevalent in japan and that have political ties. i don't believe that this time there is any relation with the current political climate in japan. and it's your thought maybe it has to do with the g 7. obviously the mr. meetings are taking place and the summit will be taking place next month. but at the moment i feel it's too early to really tell what might be behind this. and i will show a sonya blush care from my tokyo talking to us earlier rescue us are searching for survivors in the ukrainian city of slo vianza. after at least 9 people, including a toddler, were killed in russian ass strikes. the latest attack came as russian president vladimir putin signed into law, a bill that will allow him to draft citizens into the military via email. slower

lead, which a military analyst in the u. k. what he makes the strikes on slogans. gas. russia keeps insisting. he does not target civilian sites in ukraine. yes, i certainly do. we can tell something from what presidents zalinski said that the missiles use were asked 300, which are in this context, are repurposed anti aircraft missiles. they're very precise and they're regularly used now on it in attacks on, on residential areas that these are, these were not precise attacks or indiscriminate are intended to kill civilians. of course they for passive a much wider campaign of the russians in the one sense of course, attacking civilians through their infrastructure, through their electric, electrical network and so forth, which is seen of last year. and of course certain precision attacks on civilian targets most significantly. and resolutely, in this case, the almost exactly a year ago attack on climate horse railway station just up the road,

a 20 kilometers or so from. so the answer that was exactly yoga. no, this is part of a much greater campaign by russia against the civilian population. with the, with the intention of terrorizing and of course leanne's as close to back motor, which has a scene or still see some of the heaviest fighting on the ukrainian frontline reports now suggest that ukrainian troops there are under increasingly heavy fire. what more can you tell us about the situation there? yes, the over the last week or so we've seen, or what the british intelligence say is a re intensification of what's already an intense assault by russians. particularly in the with artillery the economies are under increasing pressure. what seems to be happening, monica, is that the ukrainians are conducting what's called a controlled retreat with which they did before a one or 2 occasions, notably submitted on that last year. when that retreat is complete, we don't know, but they're holding on. what we also see on the part of the russians is increased

to what appears to be increased coordination between the, the wagner mercenary group and russian airborne units, who seem to be holding the flags as it were. a button wiley, combination of gangsters and mercenaries that comprise parking conduct the, the ground attacks in combination now with very heavy ultimately. so right now the credit for holding on, let's see how low they can do. so this is the front something of course, of a hero city for them. but let's see what happens over the next week or 2 is this attack intense funds even further? well, thank you so much, frank led, which military analysts. thank you so much for sharing all your insights with us. we come back now to the breaking news that we're following for you. gun, fire and explosions have been reported in the sudanese capital card tomb and the city of mirror over to the north. witnesses say they heard shooting near the presidential palace and saw smoke rising from card tombs airport
