joined now by the w. corresponded band to record and brussels, and just a quick note before we begin. um, we are exposed to getting the landscape to speak and if he does, when he does, we will bring you that live. tell us about a little bit more about the symbolism and the timing of this visit. are there for security reasons? the schedule of the sealants is more let's secret to you already visited the international criminal court this morning. he also was in parliament already in the 2nd chamber, which is the more important chain button to touch upon women. and now he's on his way to talk with the dutch prime minister nocka with the end the belgium prime minister likes end of the crow who also event from process to to the hate to this morning to meet sealants good after that meeting. he will deliver speech to diplomats in the foreign ministry and then there's a press conference scheduled. but the exec timing's is a little bit of ja,

shaky to say, because as i said, for security reasons, it's only announced minutes before it's happens. and then he was also expected by some to, to join the, remember in stay of the netherlands, which is not accidentally also the 4th of may. and there's a public and remember in ceremonies and today and ends to them. but the police and answer them said it's very unlikely that students give it to show up there because it is, it would be too difficult to guarantee his security in a public appearance. and there's also some criticism already from the pod, isn't the net events and said this, remember, and stay in the netherlands is so important for the country as such, it should not be you know, supported on hand, but by a state visit by the ukranian president. okay, and branch, we have to tell our viewers. they're looking at live pictures, actually. they're coming out of the hague. we are expecting zelinski to take to

that podium that has indeed been reported that he will do. so he's already addressed the members of the doctor problem and tell us a little bit more about that. still, he gave him a short speech in the 2nd chamber, which was according to some type of mentality and very impressed if he got a standing ovation to that. but we don't actually don't know exactly what he said because this personal public and there are no reports so far. and what do you exactly said? but you can be sure that you try to drum up support for his country, of course. and, and also think that that's a forward to use for the support sofa in the netherlands delivering weapons and also education for ukrainian soldiers. so they're part of this big pro ukraine coalition in the european unit and, and nato and, and also in the, i see the bus no public appear and see, i see the spokes person told us that this was not planned because students gives

a kind of, of the representative of, of the victims to induce in this law of cause. and on the other hand, the russian preparatory to the russian president is on the indictment and to and the rest of burns was issued by him by the i c c. so it's also a little bit very highly symbolic, this visit, of course, but also political. okay, that we might come back to you a little bit later as we mentioned, were expecting us to landscape, to, to speak. there he is at the hague and, and we will bring that to you live as soon as that happens, boundaries with your reporting. we appreciate it. are now in the meantime, ukraine says that it's air defenses, fault off renew drone attacks on the capital key. even other areas, overnight, authorities and keeps the 2 dozen drones were fired, most of which were shot down. debris fell on residential areas, but no casualties were reported. it follows accusations from moscow that ukrainian

forces were responsible for an alleged drone attack on the kremlin, aimed at assassinating vladimir pretend. ukraine denies any involvement in the incident. this footage circulating on the russian telegram channels shows the alleged overnight attack and smoke rising above the main kremlin palace. there has been no independent verification of this footage, but russia accuses ukraine of trying to assess and they to ukrainian president, followed him as a lensky denied any involvement in the alleged incident on we don't at tech pushing or most go we fly to home on our territory, we have defending our religious cities. we don't have, you know, you know, for a weapon for these. that's why we don't use it any,

any way our full for us that is adapted to the we we cons, founded. and we didn't, the tech puts in. we leave it to try, but you know how it's going to in washington with us secretary of state anthony, blinking costs down on the kremlin allegations. these are decisions for ukraine's. i've seen the reports. i can't in any way, validate them. we simply, we simply don't know the 2nd i would take anything coming out of the kremlin with a very large shake or salt. so let's see. uh, we'll see what, uh, what, what the facts are. and it's, it's really hard to comment or speculate on this without really, really knowing what the facts are. moscow has threatened to retaliate against ukraine, making residents of keys worried for the safety. wondering was what you might try attacking the strength to take on to your decisions are made in cuba. you're

killing me. you might chair. let's look at these items again. we need to remain in safety and take care of ourselves and our loved ones. for now, put and remain safe. moscow announced that he will take part in a scheduled world war to victory day parade on the red square next week. and for more i spoke earlier with data view corresponding economy and keith, along with data used former moscow bureau to fury or shadow. he reports from rica as deed up. he was banned from reporting and russia as well. sir, as the gremlins use this as an implant act of terrorism and an attempt on president to put in slice carried out just a few days before the 3 days in may 9 parade. which is, we have to keep in mind one of the most important days, even though to the most important, the in russia and, and to reach or to reach also for and guest expect that to be present. um must go reserves to the rights to retaliate when and to where it sees fit. it's that the

criminal spokesman prescott didn't specify what executive this means. but some of the hawks were official reactions could probably give some clarity or sense from a premier is the problem. it is the end president bit rate of demand vote. is it physically removal of your credit in presence landscape of state to do my deputy from russia on next? try me a cold even for me. so strike on valencia's residence. stay to do must speak of all logged in cold uh for the also it just in teams to be recognized as a temp of is busy and final is well known competitive discuss off ski one. that's why the visa is the reason to find the call is the voice of one to know that the special minutes of the ration as in steel official, the cold in rush. so that's the reaction in russia. nick, we heard the reaction in ukraine. so landscapes strongly deny any ukrainian involvement. what is the response now in teeth to moscow's threat of retaliation or even forward or ukrainians, responded with

a flood of means means on social media. i think there's no sense here, but you can use a kind of shoppable, sort of nuclear weapons. russian doesn't really have any new tricks up its sleeve. we've seen it all before, right. the beginning of the world, those threats to destroy ukraine's government's institutions to attack. so let's keep personally that will didn't materialize thing. what they all scared about here is if russian managed to convince lots of countries in europe, that may be where a bit lukewarm about supplying ukraine with weapons. but this is a dangerous situation, that there's a risk of kind of complication escalation that might be used by risk to try and kind of brow beat of what's the support of ukraine's reducing that support? that is something that definitely worried about him. you're, if not ukraine, what could be behind the ledger drone attack? well, in russia is it all for you and even close? the stipulations, of course, of the symbolic powell visa tax is obvious, cetera. it's happened in the middle of most school buses of gramlin, a few days before he threw the ends in minutes at the rate given all this symbolism,

all the theories of good has been to the intelligence service. and for example, themselves ration of intelligence. the rest of themselves who carried all to these attacks, we must keep in mind that the image damage is greater than maybe any of the potential secret targets. on the other hand, the question is why does that optional sorted is immediately called the attack and association, the attempt of president gluten? obviously they are pursuing propaganda and possibly diplomatic goals. according to one of the you and conventions to the head of any state enjoys international protection. even though the international criminal court, in the heck issued an arrow store and for put him at sea remains to the current head of state. and a person under the national protection via for russia, made demands to hold a meeting of the security council and adopt a resolution condemning the attack on the kremlin. before we go, nick russia meantime launching a pre dawn attack on key for the 3rd time in 4 days. tell us a little bit more of the torches here,

calling it the most major attack in terms of the kinds of systems because of his health insurance at this way, be stuck on your friends capital since the beginning of the certainly it was very, very loud. most of time here in the central key, if you don't have a great deal of those sounds pretty far away. but certainly i and most people i know in this part of town in the center woke up with a thought about hoff post to in the morning and certainly friends and colleagues across the city. well heard similarly loud noise. and so the idea is that these were several strikes attempted strikes of i'm assuming a down by ukrainian defense systems. but there is typical, so not just of those normal ringing drones and become part of everyday life here. but also ballistic missiles being used for trips down very hard to intercept that sydney did happen. and we heard what sounds less sounded like bits of debris falling to the ground off to it's kind of sound like buckles being thrown on the ground. so that's certainly, it was a reminder that russia still has a lot of these results, but you're also, this is nothing new and i think, you know, there is very little chance the russians meant a reminder. ukrainian president followed him here as the last key is on

a surprise visit to the hague home of the international criminal court. he will be reportedly attending a meeting and holding a speech. you're looking at live pictures there. further details of his visit have not been reported. in march, the i. c. c issued an arrest warrant for russian president vladimir putin for the a lead deportation of children from ukraine. again, you were looking at live pictures. they are coming in to us from the hague. we are expecting that present as the landscape will speak shortly. we will bring you that live when he gets a torrential rains, have battered western and northern parts of rwanda, as well as you gone, the flooding roads and villages, and triggering land slides more than 120 people have died in the inundated area and search and rescue teams said that the death toll will rise as a record water level subside. respite from the downpours will be welcomed, but only brief. as yet more rain is forecast in the coming days. villagers in

room one does. wetlands are used to rain. but this, this is different. storms have pounded the area since last week, destroying homes, roads, and lives for residents of who the, who's alone and the don't fall off is a chance to retrieve possessions and reflect on a lucky escape. with them on. yeah, my wife was done near the window when the floods want to came through. she fell down well and as i tried to carry my child out of the house, i was pushed over like the gun. but luckily i got out i'm safe. although some brought just in the water, you did injured my legs and we'll see almost as easy to be in the chat would only be committed. look, i'm a little authorities, a bracing for the death poll here to rise as the flood waters recede. for those who survived there was never a sense of disbelief and desolation. the not to be too much,

i'm going to pick the novelty as you can see, i'm not, i'm left with nothing for my bed know, bed and no household, you know, hung up. ha, i came here for a job and i am saved with all my belongings are gone. forgotten. what time is it? not all the terrible for and i have no money to rent a house. no husband, no children. i don't know where to go. this disaster was dangerous for us for me to give it to your rescue in recovery effort your own going across the washed hatch areas. as the president promises to open homeless shelters. to deal with the non folding humanitarian emergency efforts, no more likely to be hampered by forecasts for yet more rain.
