intensified it strikes on ukraine in recent days. in anticipation of keith's spring counter offensive, he w corresponded they connolly who was in chief, told us more about the air strikes. this was a very loud night hearing here, lots of anti aircraft systems working. no attacks, successful on kill, those rockets were all shot down. but in all across the country, we've seen some significant damage to property, but also to people's lives. with those reports from the east, nearby pro of month, 30 wounded and then attack on an industrial unit. the houses nearby coming up with sco, severe, severe disruption, severe damage to those homes, people suffering under defects of smoke. there are also reports from the west from when it's key of anti aircraft systems coming to work best. that seems like the extent of this is a bit bigger than we initially thought, but the kind of bigger conclusion to take away from this is that 15 of those 18

russian crews, michelle's worship, donald religious proves, once again, the ukraine's anti aircraft systems are in a much better state than they would 3 months ago. his 2nd wave of mrs. strikes on ukraine since friday is, is what we have seen today at nic. tell us these attacks appear to be picking up in the past days. why now? some people have, as you'd mentioned, they said that this was connected to ukraine's expected counter offensive of able to saying, because the russians can, i think we saw towards the end of the winter that they were running out missiles. the missiles that were shut down of ukraine when they were opened up in the serial numbers, which act turned out. they had just been produced few weeks before. and what basically being said from the factories to the front lines. and now after almost 2 months, month and a half of basically a bit of quiet away from the front lines. no real, a massive use of those cruise missiles. now, it seems like russia has once again built up its stalks and is in a position to use is missiles. nick, what's the situation on the front line, including in batman?

so embankment will be to see endless. endless, basically st. street house to house fighting. this is a very bloody or very shocking, the theatre of this war. some place where the battle's gone on way longer than any one had expected. it seems that most of the center of the city is now in russian hands, but ukraine's austell there and they are defending their route in and out their supply route every couple of weeks to get reports of the russians trying to take control of that rotan circle ukrainian forces and then being pushed back for now. it seems like the ukranian troops are still able to secure that crucial route in and out. but i think it is a question. more of when robin, if russian troops take back more in full. but we don't know the price of all this. it seems like russia is definitely not doing much to minimize its losses. their huge losses on the russian side, and potentially far fewer losses on the ukrainian side. but as always, we don't really have a chance to over proof to check and to kind of be 100 percent. sure about those figures. t w correspondent, nick conley and keith, thank you so much and hear us the most or is making music around the world.

a number of vouchers that will come. we'll be extremely crucial for the hospital to the hospitals to be able to cater for the needs of thousands of people that are flocking to their doors and waiting to get medical assistance. but the conflicts shows no sign of easing. shortly after the warring parties agreed to a 72 hour truce violence broke out again in the capital harton. while foreign governments are scrambling to evacuate their nationals, thousands of sudanese are seeking refuge in neighboring countries. but many have no choice but to hide in their homes amid rapidly deteriorating conditions. muscular we hear the sounds of artillery it can fall in the street in front all the one behind when the new modem year will have, shall we have to sleep on the floor. there is no water, electricity, there is no food might be more murphy for her mom. in addition to food shortages

government has seized california's embattled 1st republic bank. a major wall street bank j. p. morgan chase is stepping in to buy it. the san francisco based 1st republic is the 3rd midsize bank to fail in 2 months after silicon valley bank and signature bank. j. p. morgan chase bank will assume all of 1st republics loans and most of its assets. the bank has a large amount of uninsured deposits and a high exposure to low interest rate loans. let's bring in an employee, he's joining us on the set here for d, w, a business to another bank in crisis. walk us through what has happened to 1st republican and how this takeover has unfolded. so as you mentioned, the problem with 1st republic was the same that we saw before with silicon valley bank and signature bank. so exposure to low interest rates loans, a lot of uninsured deposits. and this is some, somehow

a final ripple of what we've seen happening already. in march, the bank was in trouble already for a while back in march. other banks tried to pump in liquidity and confidence by putting deposits into the bank that didn't really work. and especially the tipping point was last week. when on monday, the financial results for 1st national bank 1st republic, sorry, bank came out, and it was clear that they were bet. so they lost more than a 100000000000 deposits in the last 3 months. and the net income was down 40 percent like the numbers that clearly would put any bank in a spiral. now 1st of all, because already in trouble, the f d i see. so the entity and the u. s. that will take care of this problems, came in very quickly during the week and over the weekend, then they found among all the offers that came from the private sector, a good one, which was the one from jp morgan chase of the taking over. it's worth remembering,

this is the 2nd now 2nd largest bank failure in u. s. history with 230 billions of assets involved in this. how high is the risk of for a their condition? because mean that's what people are really worried about right now. absolutely. so i would say that the f d i c stepping in so quickly as is clearly put a hole than that the, the, the biggest risk and the fear of investors would have been that the, at the se would take over the bank completely. instead, what's happening is that you have the i c as favored a take over from j. p. morgan chase. so private capital taking over in this case, as i said, this is of the final ripple for a bank that was feeding that mold low interest rates, loans and exposure a lot of uninsured deposits. in that sense, old, fully, this is just a large last chapter of that cries if it's in mar, in march, a lot of criticism for the lack of proper oversight that led to the collapse of silicon valley bank. had the lessons been learned,

tell us just briefly when i would say the direct answer is yes, because if we've seen how the f d i see dealt with this problem right now. they were very quick to act and very quick to know that the real fear was them taking over. instead, they favored it take over from a private entity. basically a big band came in and it's war chest. and that's also, of course ensuring and say, look, the financial system in america is strong and resilient enough to do this. it doesn't need to have a public intervention. andre, an employee, debbie business. thank you so much. in the blender. think a buyer munich played last place here to berlin and munich. the hosts have been out of their comfort zone, usually leading the standings at this stage of the season after dorman dropped points on friday by and were aiming to retake the table lead. and they didn't disappoint, beating the berliners to now. buyers shocking 3. 1 defeat to might last match

last 28 ho matches against hair to we couldn't go in the 1st half of our chances create that it was difficult to create big chances and then we were happy that we could take one after the 1st one, you can still see that we some, some somehow feel that we have something to lose now. and after the 2nd one, finally you see to play us more relaxed, more confident. so this is the situation in which we are in i'm. i'm happy that the players got to serve to win today. the defending champions retake 1st place with result, and now have a one point lead over 2nd place. daughter in the u. k. royal fans had started preparations for the coronation of king charles the 3rd with just 5 days to go until the ceremony. one dedicated monarchists is camping out to secure a perfect thought to watch. the royal procession is brought a portable bed food and also
