2:04 am
into all of you around the world. welcome. we begin today with the so called terror drones kind of trading the air space overall scale. today, the kremlin accused 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 chair 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 use in the or see if region. keith is reporting that much of fired, 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
2:05 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 and air defense system outside of key. when the area sirens rings through the ukrainian capital, this army unit springs into action like industrial. oh boy, hold their job, protecting the skies over the keys there toward the swedish made our b a 70 air defense system. sponsoring the junior, this system works through guidance station, which when it sees the targets and transmits information to the come on this call and data is transmitted from the come on this car to the launch. the launch and tone is guided to the target using radar. when to come in and can actually see the
2:06 am
target, he points the laser editor, locks it in and executes to hitch with support was on the audio 70 can be used against a wide range of targets. ukrainian officials see it is already down russian crews, messiahs and iranian maid kamikaze drones. they say it's better than the old soviet need. air defense systems in ukraine's arsenal. unlike those systems such as the iga, they say the new kit ignores heat traps and false targets. the are the 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 seventies. a wide variety to protect against the sometimes unpredictable russian air strikes. to use them ukrainian soldiers have to learn fast. for the
2:07 am
echo almost the we completed the 6 month training costs in just one month, where use us viable driven by the desire to protect our lives. the end of the life of our relative to the semester is itself. those are telling us that could you give me a the 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. it's 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 settled changes like the loss of a normal night for a normal childhood. well,
2:08 am
the whole thing the explosion was strong was some to be honest, didn't recall, but my husband to know the shopped, the various could it is said that bill o used to will. it is a piece of the children have to go through this. he said there were, after the year learned, 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. is that us a my belief is this should be when a disaster occurs the 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 of before the start of this war, oh, i was raising children
2:09 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, do you need to be passionately committed to living up to this? do you see before what we're here? not just because the president, the problem and tell us where we are here for the people we protect. that is what being a defender is to me, or should the 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
2:10 am
that's happening now? but i think in, in general, it's something we've been talking about a 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, so short story here is about, but they also need it along the front lines where the, the actual offensive and winning the war. so there is just a very large consumption of immunization 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? 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
2:11 am
going? so i wouldn't say so necessarily, i would say the that the need for ammunition is a constant. it was also one of the things actually depends like on the x, if we go back 4 or 5 months ago, that was also one of the things mentioned there that, that ukraine 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 a 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 just requires so much, i munition, i know that you are unable 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 took place in the last 24 hours in mos scale
2:12 am
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 moscow, it's air space 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 russian territory is actually not very well protected. the rush is vote focusing very much on the front lines. the new crane to there are these weak us is around moscow where we see ukraine being able to send actually drones right into the russian capital. of course we also have this voc them use any word 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 weaknesses behind the front lines and it
2:13 am
is something that you crane is leverage. and clearly they have an idea of trying to bring the home to home the war home to russia so that they will also feel and 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. i would say, fee or, but also sort of humiliation of the russian military. right. the russian authorities that they don't control the situation here, as i'm 1617 months into the war that was supposed to last the only a couple of weeks you're out 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 at 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.
2:14 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 are 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 the, 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 certainly see more getting through. and of course, or 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, that you could new craniums want to use this here. defense both to protect the
2:15 am
cities, but also along the front line and they need it 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 compactor, it's my decision. my decision. nolan, catholic, consider another place you that is not to be a candidate in the next election event. on february of the 25th 2024, even though the constitution keeps me the right to doing so. it will also come into a surprise to those who wish to see me continue to guide the construction of senegal cost to ensure the scenario which is to actually finding it. sweet but cynical is mode and they get useful that are capable leaders. hopefully the leader
2:16 am
got a mock, a problem that was the president of senegal mackey, sol, 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 constitutionally allows to terms its country is a key us ally 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. he did what he could for standard goal, his act as noble and he acted as
2:17 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 as 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 sometimes people cynically, citizens must feel housing and lives like american citizens land center. gotta come lives, america near them and we'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, dar corresponded sera, teary, she joins is from the capital, looks in a goal, the car, there is good to see, you know, we heard there from voters indigo, all the expressing relief of pride. that mackie's all has made the right decision
2:18 am
for their country. talk to me about what was at stake in this upcoming election. well, people have been asking that decide whether you would run for that time 4 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 is a lot of few of buying, interrupting again, especially after more than a dozen of protesters were killed just a month ago, predicts i've been warning for a while that democracy is in danger. and cindy got, especially because experts to say that running again was by time would be against the countries constitution. today, life was common cause was normal and people were going on about days of shops,
2:19 am
but open gothic 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 had been concerns that the president, 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 for years for the countries stability as a whole. i've talked to me about the opposition. how has the opposition been been reacting to this as well? we haven't really heard from the opposition yet. the, the, the, it was months. uncle headsets before my decides. announcements yesterday. yeah, caused for more protests if he had announced to run for that time. and that's because he and other critics that you cited for bringing court cases against deposition to sign has competition in the elections. but that are happening in february, not next year. and this also still
2:20 am
a lot of anger over the sentencing of some pull to 2 years in prison for, for charges of what they call. yeah. corrupting 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 send? the goal is neighbors. a well cindy guy has really been seen as an, as and now it's not in west africa and the region where democracy are like you've decided this is really and under threats. i mean, we just need to look at the neighboring countries, the terms of governments impala and in monte and book, you know, fast,
2:21 am
so in the after cruise and also the presidents of ivory coast and of total there rooting beyond that to constitutional times. so this is really sending a strong signal that's democracy must prevail in the region. and there's also, there's also been a lot of praise bye by neighboring, indeed us by the president of john via, for example, he wrote on twitter. and that this was a courageous move of my case. either will strength and democracy in africa as lots and also praise by the african union by the us and by france, whose for i, ministry, has held this really is a proof of solidity of sending our lease democracy. yes. so in 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 a go smockey. so it was elected in 2012,
2:22 am
and since then he's been leading, sent a guy which is one of the fastest growing economies on the continent. during his time this been a new port, new international apple, there was constructed a new train that disconnecting the cow, the capital to its sub ups and also a whole new city. um 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 st. that's could really ton the country into, uh, one of uh, 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 used unemployment as well. and of course, even there was uh, last night's announcement there
2:23 am
a lot of questions that remained about the state of democracy in the country. um they have been yeah, hundreds of political opponents that has been jailed in trying this arrested. and of con, 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 senegal. sir, thank you. i a thank you for indonesia is building a new capital on the island of burnett before they are, 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. okay. so we know that it has been a major backer of the project and just last months was in single board to encourage
2:24 am
private investors to foot a majority of the $32000000000.00 price day. so i suggest you don't wait too long. go and just sit and watch. this is a garden opportunity. that is fatty. got the right thing in indonesia. it's all of you can be bought off a free thing. it'd be fine. no need to warranty your investment in indonesia. we're on the new to be safe and also the pump in your ac. i'll send that out there because it these people up on there was onset is being developed because of the current capital in jakarta. well,
2:25 am
basically it's sinking, rising sea levels coupled with subsidence have you clouded your card, is long term prospect's. 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 a 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 a presidential dream. looks like slowly, but surely indonesia, as new capitol is emerging from the ground on the island of borneo. over here. you have the presidential palace being built and this is where the presidential
2:26 am
residence will be. nissan, colorado as president joke, will be total selection project and is envisioned as a green smart city. but with a whooping $32000000000.00 price tag, some investors have expressed concern that development may lose momentum after the end of the those final term in office next year. the main opposition party in jakarta is not surprised. valuables young double book. i need to kind of what we need our new centers of economic growth and not a new policy to get that. we're going to proceed with that. we just do it at least we are in the past semester. we're realistic about becoming a business world only cares if their investment will multiply, not somebody that they make on what am i that until now, there is no study that shows that people who invest their will get benefits. but conclude when the government disagrees. officials that the building sites claim they have already received over $100.00 letters of interest. that is crucial
2:27 am
because the private sector is supposed to foot 80 percent of the bill for the new capital, the investor. so the last to see that the government goes 1st, right? so that's the, that's why most of the buildings circulate this in particular, the far is being built by the state budget. they have to for your market confidence . but also that's what i really said there will be a lot of our investors to look up. some of them are still waving. see, but the safe to say that the effort that is the construction of the new capital would begin in mid 2022 months. the government arguing that jakarta 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
