put trap by the fighting. these university students are sheltering in their college library and homes are no longer safe. the conflict is seen heavy come fire and several air strikes and civilian neighborhoods. the use ambassador to sedan was assaulted in his home, and cartoon. the blocks top diplomat, ge, as at parales set in a tweet to violence is left the cities, airport hospitals, and top military buildings, badly scarred the flashes are interruption of a long simmering power. struggle between sedans, army and the powerful paramilitary rapid support forces, or r s f. they joined forces to oust former dictator omar bashir in 2019. now they have turned that guns on each other. just months after signing a deal to restore civilian rule. should be very honest as the true size,

who are fighting i know you because the impression that they want me to you nation for peace between them right way. rather they are calling on the other side to to ah, the other side. tricky route to cylinders or the other side to be disbanded. global and regional leaders have called on the warring parties to accept a ceasefire, but with neither the r s f or the army willing to back down. the deadly violence looks said to continue. and we can all speak to our shut malik, is the country director for safe, the children's the don and joins us now from cartoon. welcome to d. w festival, or what's the situation like in cartoon right now? as currently, as we speak today,

the big white day there was like some fluid in the overhead and the herd. someone to the shilling and some one shots. but as a serve like it's relatively white. this is the config started in in on saturday. and so, but still the getting gun battle in there is part of what it is done by the situation of what we have seen. there is an announcement that be $24.00 us government also knows i believe we have not seen any one, but i think that the amount of good to see the community negotiations. busy so otherwise,

like before the fees or the over the we have seen couple of images coming out. people coming up for buying electricity or maybe buying some, some proseries, but we have the board of electricity got more of the water. we also the course of course are going to be of shortages of medical supplies, lever induction ship. they have different mentioned shortage of supplies when it comes to plastic bags of blood, also some critical hospital. so yeah. so what you, what should be done right now to ease the suffering? i think the most important thing that should be done immediately is to like find there is an announcement for 24 hours ceasefire. but i think for the most important

thing is that there is a long season and that the people should discuss about people's situation. we are really concerned about the well being of children, m. c. williams from a perpetual angle and services, and not available. we heard reports that schools or hospitals with office and one of the states and our who did buy on on those. we also have a complaint with moving stuff and others. busy immediate need of a fire, and if there is any solution that solution should be neutral agreement between the parties. and this are up to you that do you think that international

intervention would help at this point and who could intervene? i'm not that i think this. ok, so international intervention might help, but the solution is i will look like the local leaders should be between them. so all the people of course, the united nations and other than others can get into and they should actually be talking from a mom that you know, so you know it but, but i strongly believe that the solution is available to. busy thank you very much. our shop, melissa the contra director for save the children in the sit down. thanks for joining us here on the w news. you commission president. those are fund alive has told you repute lawmakers that the you needs to rethink its policy towards china,

but should not cost ties with bridging this international and economic status, as well as our own interests, make it all the more important for europe to manage its relations with china and for me that also shows that decoupling. ready is clearly not liable, desirable, or even practical for europe. but as i said back in january, and as i set out in more detail a few weeks ago, there is clearly a need for europe to work on di, risking some important and sensitive parts of our relationship wasn't on the lines beacon van for more on this let's go to our correspondent lucio chilton in stressful lucille. we heard was love fatherland. talking to her about that d, risking the relationship between you and china. what does that mean? yes, my dearest king means is basically meaning managing the relationships are in

a way that the european union thinks it can protect itself a bit better. so for this, there foreseeing new policies, for example, in the area of raw materials where there be want to become more independent from china. in some areas they are highly dependent in this field. so this is one of the steps, but that also means for the european union that they want to have a level playing field when it comes to the trade with china, which basically means to get the same access to chinese markets as chinese firms. also to get a better protection of intellectual property was a life underline has also been talking about introducing a new tool and you tool that should protect critical em sectors. and this new tool should be thawed because she said it can't be that there are areas or expertise of european firms that are then being used by a systemic rival. so there are still quite some ideas that are being floated around

here and basically to protect trade towards china. and this is what they mean when they say their bond to de risk. the relationship with china. now funder line is looking at the risks involved the relationship. but recently francis, one of them a call stress that he sees china above all as an economic partner. that is, there is hardly unified policy and so you as it you have to differentiate a little bit when you talk about the policies towards china because there's on the one hand foreign policy. and on the other hand, there's trade policy in the area of foreign policy. it is still pretty much up to the member states, how they want to create their relationship with china in the area of trade policy. there it is, the u commission who is in charge. so today when we were listening also to was left on the line in the european parliament, she was also talking to the member states into the european union as a whole for the need to get a unified approach towards china. so this was

a pretty clear message that she was sending out. and yet as you said, it is clear that member states have different approaches towards china. but i have talked to an antidote analysis the other day. and one thing he said, and that stick with me was they all agree that the risking is necessary. they just don't agree how. what about the war in ukraine? does the you expect china to use its influence on russia, in attempt to, and the aggression there? yeah, their commission president made this clear already before she went to china, roughly 2 weeks ago, she said that she expects russia to play a, excuse me, china, to play a role also and to exert influence on russia. she reminded china of them being a member of a permanent member of the security cancer. and that she thinks is crucial that china place is roland, lived up to its runs. responsibilities in this area are also and that's maybe even

more decisive than these words. she said that it would be a pre request prerequisite for whatever happens now or in china policies. basically what the you does for that, a precondition is how china, very ag towards russia was the actual strasburg there for us. thank you. go to russia now, where are you as gentle as evan gaskets, as appeared in moscow cause to appeal against his arrest and detention. the wall street journal reporter has been charged with spying. following his arrest like late last month escapades, and his employer deny any wrong doing with washington calling for his immediate release, it's the 1st time a us journalist has been detained on espionage charges by russia since the end of the cold war. and earlier i spoke with our former moscow bureau,

she fury rochette, who has been based in reagan since the w was banned from working in russia. and i asked him, what happens in the likely event that evan girl give its appeal is denied by the court. according to the f s b, russia, secret service guest, which was acting on instructions from the united states, allegedly collected information, which was classified as a state secret about one of russia's military factors in the you or else even gosh, which denied this accusation. however, a criminal case has been initiated against him and under the charge of this parent espionage punishment. under this article means, forget to which from 10 to 20 years in prison, an investigation is underway at the moment as a trial is scheduled for the end of may until then jessica, which will be in a pre trial detention center in moscow. he is now there, considering the resonance of the skis and his fame. a one can assume that russell will do everything to punish gasket,

which according to the most severe scenario that is, put him in jail for 20 years. on monday, for the 1st time, the u. s ambassador to russia was allowed to see go to prison. what have you heard about that meeting? yes, yes. and basset to moscow. lin, tracy did indeed visit yvonne guest coverage in the pre trial detention center in the 4th over by moscow. as this was the 1st access to even get coverage since his detention over 2 weeks ago. ah, yes, ambassador reported that even was feeling well and was holding up as she again called for events immediate to lease. i don't. the journalist himself had previously sent his 1st letter to his family in the united states. it was the only 2 pages long and was written in russian because gash of its parents are soviet immigrants and communicate with their a son in russian. yet he wrote that he hasn't lost hope and even joked that his

mother prepared him well for prison food because she cooked the same wheat or with porridge, when he was young. so at the end gash cabbage put his name. your vanier, he wrote van is the russian form of his american name. even your yesterday or we spoke about a russian gremlin critic ruddy mccurry moser, and he was sentenced to 25 years in prison to beggars. which is god, as you said, facing up to 20 years jail time. why is there such a draconian crackdown on freedom of expression in russia? yeah, look, even guess garbage has been writing articles on sensitive topics, including that one ukraine and the wagner private military company. for big american newspaper, and i think the kremlin is pretty afraid of people with audience with influence. and that's completely normal because the situation in the country in russia isn't getting any better. the war has been going on for more than a year and the graham and seems determined to keep the war going for

a long time. so protests and critics in his own country are the last thing president putin needs. now. this tense atmosphere is likely to intensify as the election date approaches. in less than a year, the russians will elect the new president. so any opponents like horrible czar yesterday should be silence if possible, as well even guess cabbage. moscow is probably hoping for a prisoner swap, and there are various russians who are in jail in the west and are to be exchanged for even gasket, which are corresponding derucia to their thank you, yuri, to the us now where the f b, i has arrested 2 men suspected of work in a secret agents for the chinese government. the men were excuse of running a secret police station in new york city to intimidate chinese dissidence. living in the united states, the case highlights a growing trend among all through terry and regimes,

which are going out of their way to silence a position allegedly behind this planned facade, paintings, ice in the big apple, hidden in plain sight. in new york city, china town, 2 men are suspected of running a secret police station control by china. until several months ago, an entire floor of this building hosted an undeclared police station of the chinese national police. now just imagine the n y p d opening an undeclared secret police station in beijing it would be unthinkable. u. s. prosecutor say the suspects, use the outpost to help bating target chinese dissidence across the united states. on monday, the men who are both us citizens, which arch with conspiring to act as agents of chinese government, they were later released on bail. the case comes as federal authorities ramp up

investigations into attempts by us adversaries to intimidate political opponents in the united states. the outpost was established roughly a year ago and shut down after police search war. last fall. it's believe to be one of more than $100.00 were wide run by china. and the 1st on us soil. both the accused and china and sissy alleged new york outpost was merely an office to help chinese nationals for new document. another trivial tasks. but u. s. officials warn it could be just the tip of the iceberg. as bating takes ever more drastic steps to stamp out criticism, no matter the place, no matter the time. the criminal says russian president vladimir putin has visited russian forces and occupied areas of ukraine. put in,

met with troops in the ukrainian regions of hassan and lou hands on monday. moscow illegally annexed both in september 2022, despite only controlling parts of those. it was the russian lead, a 2nd visit to ukraine since his invasion last year. the trip comes as moscow braces for a long anticipated ukrainian counter offensive. the battle in buck modern eastern ukraine has had ukrainian and russian forces locked for more than 8 months in a bloody stalemate. thousands of lives have been lost with soldiers engaging, entrench warfare resembling the battle scene in world war one. after months of barely any movement, the u. k. ministry of defense said last week that russia has re energized it's assault. is just as ukraine is expected to launch its long awaited spring counter offensive. this is what months of fighting has done to back moot.

in recent days, more neighborhoods in the embattled city of fallen to russia. according to moscow, it claims most of back moot, is under its control before the war. around 70000 people lived here a mining hub strategically located in eastern ukraine. it's believed there are only $3000.00 residents now. the head of russia's private mercenary wagner, group has called back moved a meat grinder. ukrainian forces have described, quote, unprecedented bloody battles. but both russia and ukraine have suffered heavy losses. thousands of soldiers have died in the more than 9 months that the battle for batman has raged. moscow has been re supplying its front lines as fast as they lose people, but both sides are refusing to back down to them. for the kremlin, the capture of back moot would provide a long awaited battlefield victory. a symbolic show of strength.

it could also open up the way for a rush and advanced towards major ukrainian cities in the region savanski and cram a tourist. and in turn, control of the entire turnouts. guerria ukrainian president vladimir lansky has repeatedly said, ukraine, we'll continue to hold back moot for an hour. it appears the months long stalemate remains the longest and bloodiest battle in russia's war in ukraine. and it shows little sign of changing poland, slovakia, and hungary say their banner, the import and transit of grain from ukraine to protect their own agricultural sectors. it comes off the local farmers complained of grain coming from the war torn country being sold below market prices. but with a you largely responsible for trade rules, brussels may intervene,

the bands are causing long delays at the borders. a long line of ukrainian trucks stuck at the polish border. drivers say they've been waiting here for days after the country announced a temporary ban on g, raining ports from ukraine. so when you motion you brown, you live where we can't, we need the direction of the pulse reached out the hand to us and i'm very thankful him will. sure. yep. like nancy grateful read the whole of ukraine is the whole world. leave his me. but now, so pardon, won't let us in for some reason. i was just trying to push it to some kind of situation here. the swanson you bring up a ship, silverman, you, warsaw, introduced the ban over the weekend as a way to address the problem of local farm is being under cut by ukrainian grain, which is cheaper than it's locally grown equivalence. large amounts of it had been entering poland and other border countries. after the usual export route on the black sea was partially blocked. but instead of the grain heading onwards to global

markets, logistical bottlenecks kept at stock. that's meant ukrainian grain has flooded local markets. driving down prices yo. shortly after the polish announcement hungry followed suit. and on monday, slovakia said it would do the same. now several other european countries. i considering similar actions the european commission said it was looking into the legality of the measures. which is important to remind that trade policies, so of exclusive confidence, which means that it, sir, i've european union level that such as he shows can be taken under seeds. why we have been saying that her unit at an action is not possible under you trade policy . further complicating matters last week, moscow said it might not extend

a deal that has been allowing some grain to leave ukraine through its black see ports with the future of ukrainian grain exports. uncertain. the u is having to tread a fine line between supporting its farmers and supporting water in ukraine. and some sports in the world. snooker championship was temporarily suspended in sheffield, england on monday. after the protesters crashed the tournaments. robert wilkinson, joe perry were playing their 1st round match when a protest jumped on the table, emptied that orange coda. eventually staff managed to step in to protest as were removed by security group, just scott oil claim responsibility, which obviously caught a final resumes on tuesday with italian side. napoli looking to overturn their one nel deficit after losing a way to ac milan in the 1st leg. but this time round now,

but he will have syria are leading gold score victoria, him, and back to strike. as for 25 goal so far. this is also hoping to claw their way back into the champions league like chelsea who trail spanish giants rail madrid to nil after the 1st leg. if chelsea failed to win the champions league, they could miss out next season. the english side are currently nowhere near european spot in the premier league table and a still looking for their 1st when interest boss frank. like, are you watching the w news? he is a reminder of the top story we're following for you. do a secretary of state antony blinkin has spoken by phone with each of sedans, warring and generals, urging them to reach these 5 to and days of blood shift un says at least 185 people have di did the violence which began on saturday at
