oh, the rushes war in ukraine shows no sign defending any time soon. and this is probably the main reason why nato's boss says he won't be leaving any time soon. either late or secretary general young stilton bergs term is being extended another year, a sign of stability in a world that is anything but to day moscow called a ukrainian droll attack of the city, an act of terrorism know that kind of terror. it's a daily event and ukraine, but most russian rockets are intercepted most but not all. i'm for golf and berlin . this is the day. the air defense systems like this when you see behind me are expected to we completed
12:03 am
the 6 month training course in just one month, but they cannot stop everything. i grab the children and ran to the 1st floor. i went outside and i saw that the building was just gone where you use, so it would driven by the desire to protect our lives and the likes of our relatives. before the start of this war, i was reading children. and that was my job. also coming up the president of senegal is in his 2nd term and he says there will not be a 3rd for many indecision that could be the difference between life and death. a lot of good luck with your microsoft has resolve the situation. let them know. now, any future president, let me know that he can only serve 2 terms and then leave that to do more about it . back to our viewers watching on tv,
12:04 am
as in the united states into all of you around the world. welcome. we begin the day with the so called the terror drones kind of trading the air space overall scale. today, the kremlin, the keys ukraine of watching 5 drones targeting russian infrastructure for awhile. one of the most scales, airports was closed, russian says, and they shot down all 5 drones, and it's blame the us and nato for making the attacks possible. russia launch is its own share of air strikes against ukraine practically every day. today, russian rock is targeting eastern ukraine soon at least 31 people including 9 children to the hospital. the strike hit the car park outside the residential building in the town of pebble my youth in the r c region. keith is reporting that much of fire and what it called a high explosive shell, which also ignited several cars or chief has seen heavy fighting since rushes full scale invasion began last year. russia has repeatedly denied deliberately targeting
12:05 am
civilians. ukraine's air defense systems have played a crucial role in the war, but they have their limits. they are often the target of attacks and ammunition is in short supply. our special correspondence, our uber, he spoke with ukranian troops operating an air defense system outside of keats. when the air raid sirens rings through the ukrainian capital, this army unit springs into action like industrial boyhood to their job, protecting the skies or re key if they're toward the swedish maid or be a 70 air defense system. sponsoring of the junior, this system works through guidance station, which when it sees the targets in our transmits information to the come on this card and data is transmitted from the come on this card to launch the launch and
12:06 am
tone. it's guided to the target using radar. when to come, no one can actually see the target. he points the laser editor, locks it in and executes the hit with support was on. the audio 70 can be used against a wide range of targets. ukrainian officials see it is already down russian cruise missiles and iranian maid kamikaze drones. they say it's better than the old. so if you need air defense systems in ukraine's arsenal. unlike those systems such as the iga, they say the new kit ignores heat trips and falls targets. the audio 70 is just one part of ukraine's complex air defense network. the patchwork of western systems also include german d parts and iris tease american now sams, and patriots, and french, italian st. t's, a wide variety to protect against the sometimes unpredictable russian air strikes to use them. ukrainian soldiers has to learn best for the most the
12:07 am
we completed the 6 month training costs and just one month where you're dealing with, driven by the desire to protect our lives and the life of our relative to the message itself. as you're telling us a good evening air defense systems like this when you see behind the art sector and they've been largely credited for enabling civilian life while the country has come under constant attack. but they cannot stop everything. a russian air strike on cuba in june, debris slammed 2 or 3 floors of this residential building. at least 5 people died. this kind of destruction has become more common since ukraine started is counter offensive. the aftermath of this air straight shows just how much aerial bombardment has changed everything. for ordinary people, the loss of life and property are the most visible. but then there are even more
12:08 am
subtle changes, like the loss of a normal night for a normal childhood. well, the whole thing, the explosion was the trunk of a song to be on his didn't wake up with my husband to know. i was shocked to the various could it is said that we are all used to will. it is a peter, the children have to go through this. you said they were after the air alert. i heard an explosion. it was very scary. i grabbed the children and ran to the 1st floor. i went outside and i saw that the building was just gone. another change is perhaps the strength and sense of solidarity that of their collective trump. they would need to do with help in tomorrow. we may also need help from someone else over the course. is that us a my belief is this should be when a disaster occurs unless we come to help and give people hot food. and that's what's gonna help you with is prepared in a real field kitchen is good, but you on before the start of this war, i was raising children
12:09 am
a. and that was my job. because like the people they are protecting the soldiers using the are the 70, have seen their world changed by the war writer worked at a fertilizer factory and wrote children's books before she volunteered shopped at best with the voice video or yeah, you need to be passion entry, committed to living up to this, do you see performing what we are here? not just because the president, the parliament tell us where we are here for the people we protect, that is what being a defender is to me or should the split cool. all right, let's take a closer look now at the challenges facing ukraine is it protects its skies. i'm joined now by unders folk meals, use a military analyst at the royal danish defense college. and this is good to have you with this you to we are hearing now from the top level of the ukrainian military. more and more, there are shortages of ammunition and weapons across the board. do we know why
12:10 am
that's happening now? just well, i think in, in general it's something we've been talking about lot across the many months. and it's also the situation now is that after the counter offensive be ukrainian demand for ammunition is just so much bigger. they needed for 2 things. they needed both to protect the cities as your story here is about, but they also need it along the front lines square the, the actual offensive and winning the war. so there is just a very large consumption of emulation and then it's just also a constant fact that you know, they can always use more. and can we read anything into that? i mean, the timing of this obviously is not good for the ukrainian military right at the beginning of the counter offensive. and already they're having to deal with the shortages of, of a munition. but does that tell us anything about how this counter offensive is
12:11 am
going? or i, i wouldn't say so necessarily. i will say the bit that the need for ammunition is a constant. it was also one of the things actually depends on the x. if we go back uh, 4 or 5 months ago, uh, that was also one of the things mentioned there that, that you crane would need more ammunition. and, you know, they haven't gone out yet. so i think it's just something that constantly they will need deliveries of more and more. but of course it is important that they have enough to actually go through the summer. the calendar expensive use of course going slower than many people. were maybe hoping that it would, but it is just the kind of grinding offensive that, that basically the west has equipped ukraine to be able to do. so that's what they're doing. and it's just requires so much, i munition. i know that you are a naval officer, a navy man, but let me ask you if you could, to give us your expertise looking towards the skies on it. let's talk about what
12:12 am
took place in the last 24 hours in mos scale while scale claiming that 5 ukrainian drones were able to penetrate the, the air space over the capital. one airport in moscow was closed. i'm temporarily. what does that tell us when the capital city of mos scale it's aerospace can be repeatedly as it sounds like it penetrated by foreign drones as well. i think we've seen several examples over the last couple of months that the, the russian territory is actually not very well protected. the russians vote focusing very much on the front lines in ukraine. so there are these weaknesses around moscow where we see ukraine being able to send actually drones right into the rushing capital. of course we also have this voc now mutiny where it turned out that they could also just basically right up the highway inside russia, right? so, so we do use to see the rush. it has these witnesses behind the front lines and it
12:13 am
is something that you crane is leverage. and clearly they have an idea of trying to bring the home to how the ward home to rush out so that they will also feel it maybe that can increase the pressure on, on coaching. i mean, do you see these strong attacks on moscow as more of a, of a psych ops operation, basically to, you know, to put fear in the minds of russians as well. i would say fear, but also sort of humiliation of the russian military. right. the russian authorities that they don't control the situation here, some 1617 months into the war that was supposed to last only a couple of weeks, you know, but suddenly they got, the russian capital is under attack. and it's, it just shows that they, they don't control the situation of the longer it to the war. last the worst of what was the worst the situation is getting. so i wouldn't wanna say that the p or we don't see the ukrainians targeting russian civilians in the capital for example
12:14 am
. that would also be my view counterproductive. yeah, and we have certainly seen of what looks like that happening more and more in the ukraine. president zalinski, the ukranian president, have said that ukraine's air defense systems are strange of our we close to a tipping point here. i mean, right now we're hearing from the crating and military that they're able to intercept almost all of you know, rockets or drones, but not all of them. if they have a shortage though of any type of webinar and munitions. is that going to compromise their air defense systems, in your opinion? yes, it would, i mean, and, and there is that risk that they are not able to keep it up. uh, so overtime maybe we will see more getting through. and of course, all right, already something use getting through, they get they don't get everything. but i think we also have to acknowledge that it's a dilemma right?
12:15 am
that you could new craniums want to use this here. defense both to protect the cities, but also along the front line and they needed both places so, so there is a trade off and whatever they do, they still need more because they, they're not able to, to do both under his book, heels and from the royal danish defense college, we appreciate your time and your insights tonight. thank you. my dear composites, my decision, my decision law nolan, catholic, considered mother please. she that is not to be a candidate job in the next election event review. on february the 25th 2024, even though the constitution keeps me the right to do so as well. it will also come into a surprise to those who wish to see me continue to guide the construction of synagogue cost to ensure the synagogue, which is to actually finding it sweet but cynical is mode and they don't get useful
12:16 am
as capable leaders. you know, hopefully the leader got a mock a problem or that was the president of senegal mackey song making an announcement that has drawn practically universal praise. and that's because many, especially those in the opposition political forces. many had expected the uncomfort interior term leader to try to seek a 3rd term in office no sooner. goal is constitutional. we allows to terms, is country is a key. us allied in west africa, the us state department saying that this announcement sets a clear example to those who seek to a road demographic. democratic principles. praise to in senegal, both from saul, supporters and from his opponents take a listen. you have to respect your work and it's as respect that has led us to this situation from now on. he will be highly respected internationally. she did what he could for setting a goal. his act is noble and he acted as
12:17 am
a respectable person. thank you. the, the last time he changes a lot of things, best ability, the country has become stable. the country has become governmental. we've got a lot, a lot of good luck with your monkey. so has resolved the situation. let them know. now, any future president let me know that he can only serve 2 terms and then leave that to do more about it. but it had been a settlement, but we need a president who takes pity on the sending it to us. we need a president who doesn't, to his people, we need to present who do they subsidize people cynically. citizens must feel housing and lives like american citizens land center. gotta come live them it again near them and you're going to give them a us. yeah. a merciful magnanimous leader of what's going on here for more. we want to go over now to our corresponded secretary. she joins us from the capital of senegal. the car, there is good to see, you know, we heard there from voters indigo,
12:18 am
all the expressing relief of pride. that mackie's all has made the right decision for the country. talk to me about what was at stake in this upcoming election. well people have been asking like decide whether you would run for that term for months and he refused to answer. so that's why last night's announcement really came as a great relief for the people here. the political tension has been running really high. recently in the country and there's a lot of few violence erupting again, especially after more than a dozen of protestors were killed just a month ago. critics, i've been warning for a while that democracy is in danger. and cindy guys, especially because experts to say that running against was by time would be against the country's constitution. today, life was common cause was normal and people were going on about days of shops,
12:19 am
but open traffic was running quite normally. and at least for now, we can say that the announcement has eased at least some of the recent tension. yeah. and we know that there'd been concerns that the presidents and, you know, might run for it for a 3rd term. and, you know, we've, we've seen that recent unrest in the country raising fears for the countries. stability as a whole. i've talked to me about the opposition. how has the opposition been been reacting to this to well, we haven't really heard from the opposition yet. um the, the, the, it was months. uncle headsets before my decides announcements yesterday. yeah, caused for more protests if he had an ounce to run for a side term. and that's because he and other critics, the 2 sided for bringing code cases against deposition to sign who's competition in the elections. but that are happening in february, not next. yeah. and there's also still
12:20 am
a lot of anger over the sentencing of sancho to 2 years in prison, latasha as of what they call. yeah. corrupting and the use right now as sancho. he's practically under house arrest and it's still unclear whether he'll be able to run next year or not. synagogue has been seen as a beacon of democracy in a region of africa that has been beset by all the crafts. you've had military take overs and you've had basically old men clinging onto power no matter what the constitution say. what signal does this president's decision send to sending goals neighbors as well as any god is really been seen as an, as a now it's not in west africa, in a region where democracy like you've decided this is really and under threats. i mean, we just need to look at the neighboring countries,
12:21 am
the terms of governments impala and in monte and book, you know, fossil in the after cruise and also the presidents of ivory coast and the total, the routing, beyond that to constitutional task. so this is really sending a strong signal that's democracy must present and the reach. and there's also, there's also been a lot of praise, bye, bye, neighboring, indeed us by the president of columbia, for example, he wrote on twitter and that this was a courageous move of my case either will strengthen democracy in africa at large. and also praised by the african union, by the us and by france, whose for a ministry has held this really is a proof of solidity of sending our least democracy. yes, it's a politics it's, it's never easy to be an outlier. it seems when you're talking about democracy, rule of law. so tell us more about this man. make you saw it, his legacy and how his he shapes in
12:22 am
a go smoking. so it was elected in 2012. and since then, he's been leading center guy, which is one of the fastest growing economies on the continents. during his time this been a new that poets and new international apple. there was a constructors, a new train that disconnecting the cow, the capital to its sub ups. and also a whole new city that is um yeah, that is supposed to help ease the traffic in the capital. and i'm sure you've heard about the gas fuels. does that have been discovered of the northern coast of think that's could really ton the country into uh, one of africa's major produces of, of natural gas. but of course they have still a lot of problems but still needs to be tackled such as the health care system, which is very on the develop side. there's a lot of youth unemployment as well. and of course, even there was last nights announcement that
12:23 am
a lot of questions that remained involved in the state of democracy in the country . um they have been yeah, hundreds of political opponents that has been jailed. and john, this arrested and of pounds forgot to box those people were killed in those protests just uh, just a month ago. yes. a very good point. did you make fear corresponded secretary joining us tonight from the car in cindy's all, sir, thank you. i so thank you for indonesia is building a new capital on the island of burnett before now it's called new sun tara, it is expected to be fully ready by the year 2045. but the plan is to have some government institutions move to it. beginning early next year. now the president of indonesia, yoko window has been a major backer of the project and just last months was in single board to encourage
12:24 am
private investors to put a majority of the $32000000000.00 price to. so i suggest you don't wait too long. go and just sit and watch. this is a garden opportunity. that is fatty. that's the right thing in indonesia. but it's all of you can be bought off a free thing. it'd be fine. no need to warranty your investment in a donation. we're on the new to be safe and also the pump in your ac. i'll send that out there because if these people up on there's onset is being developed
12:25 am
because of the current capital in jakarta. well, basically it's sinking, rising sea levels coupled with subsidence have you clouded your card, is long term prospect. also, the government argues indonesia needs to redistribute economic prosperity. currently, this is concentrated on the main island of job, but it's an economic argument that not everyone is convinced off. this is where airplanes could soon touchstone a v i. p runway is the latest item on the long wish list from indonesia as president for the countries new capital. some 7000 workers are currently busy laying the foundations for a number of official buildings in what is still a vast eucalyptus forest. this is what about 5 to 10 percent of the presidential dream. looks like slowly but surely indonesia, as new capitol as a marketing from the ground on the island of borneo. over here, you have the presidential palace being built. and this is where the presidential
12:26 am
residence will be. nissan, colorado, as president joke, will be total selection project. and it's envisioned as a green smart city. but with a whooping $32000000000.00 price tag, some investors have expressed concern that development may lose momentum of to the end of the dose final term in office next year. the main opposition party in jakarta is not surprised, but valuables young double book. i need to find out what we need our new centers of economic growth and then not a new policy to get that book and proceed with that. we just put at least we're in pest domestic. we're realistically at a book i could think of the business world only cares that their investment will multiply, not somebody's idea because what am i that i have until now, there is no study that shows that people who invest their will get benefits without that concludes to them or the government disagrees. officials at the building sides claim. they have already received over $100.00 letters of interest. that is crucial
12:27 am
because the private sector is suppose to afford 80 percent of the bill for the new capital, the investors or the last to see that the government goes 1st. right. so that's, that's why most of the buildings circulate. this in 3030 far is being built by the guy, their budget. they have to for your market confidence. but also that's what i really said there will be a lot of investors to work on. some of them are still waving, see, but the safe to say that the effort that is there, in the construction of the new capital began in mid 2022 months. the government arguing that arcada was congested and sinking. this them being built just the boston new capital, is supposed to prevent such problems. and remember whatever happens between now and then tomorrow is another day. we'll see you then everybody
12:28 am
the a lot of the problems that you have right now. why these quotes that are happening as a result for corruption, the tough way inside of the top. it didn't allow us to improve a little much of funding. i spent the last couple of years exposing dropped the
