12:04 pm
a lot of senior leadership jump ships or they were sent to june. but once he's out and he is a popular politician. so we have to be there that would be more straightforward, that would be more education and i think there will be political instability been focused on has general elections. well, thank you so much for bringing us up to speed on this big new story that is initially jeff had any, thanks to at north eastern ukraine now, where russian forces have intensified a tax on coupons, can hear the russian border. russia occupied the city for 6 months before being pushed out. now they want to take it again. ukrainian authorities earlier this month ordered the evacuation of cookie on scanned the surrounding areas. the they'll be use. abraham accompanied a red cross unit as they went door to door, trying to persuade civilians to leave the men in this fence or in the life and
12:05 pm
death to mission. we follow as the offer civilians a way out of one of the most dangerous parts of the country. this is a risk can you take to try to save lives? you have to take risks to this town to lose for the of my deal of people not to blame for what is happening. the ukrainian government orders are clear. everyone in coupons and the surrounding areas has to lead versus says it has captured positions in the region showing and destruction are part of everyday life . here he goes, 1st, stop today is a village on the outskirts of the city, anna, and her 3 small children are ready to go. or she's been living here with her husband stanley. he is absent. and his mother in law, lena won't join her. she and her 2 sons are staying
12:06 pm
i don't want to leave up to look after the house. i still have 2 children here. and 12 would a go, have nowhere to go. she's written civilians and children on her gate, hoping it will provide some protection if the russians returned. ivan is about as old as the board. the family spent much of his life in a basement to avoid showing and russian soldiers. he now finds the outside world terrifying, says emma and to show him damage our house. she doesn't need to see something other than what an occupation. my children have been traumatized for the rest of their lives from what they have seen. and then her kids are leaving the danger zone. the many are not taking that decision. some 2000 people have signed documents,
12:07 pm
stating they won't evacuate and won't hold authorities responsible. if anything happens to them. the city has a special place in the story of the score. it's geographically closer to russia, then to the regional capital for keith. and early on in the invasion, the mayor surrendered russian soldiers occupied coupons for 6 months. the volunteers tell me the suspect, some of those refusing to leave or staying in the hope that pressure will take over again. that's my son as a why? mazda 2, only we call them the loan creators mos on. unfortunately, in these areas, on the border with russia, the occupier, there was such people on a coupon from the east on it and her children arrive at a reception center and hard to keep a 100 kilometers away from the kids get toys while she registers
12:08 pm
they get places in the dormitory, they can stay here until she figures out what to do next. that's the blue. go through the thing it's can run. your child says we saw a blown up time. and the soldiers just lying on the road. the children. so all these, i don't want them to see it anymore that have partially to wait on. it does not know what the future holds for her and her children. but for now, being away from the immediate threats and feelings safe is enough. a dw special correspondent at you for him, filed that report, and she joins us now from q a or you're reporting drive. so again, just how much suffering this more is causing for civilians. can you tell us what else you saw in against a lot of destroyed buildings showing it's really a part of daily life there. we thought we have to tell our viewers a lot of the residents, especially in coupons city itself,
12:09 pm
and i chose to stay. we're elderly people or people that were not able to evacuate and so far because of disability and health issues. and these are really the people that you know, the volunteers that we will following. we're trying to target and it sounds like they weren't entirely successful based on some of the people you interviewed at despite the showing many are refusing to evacuate their homes. what was that like? speaking to those people i'm covered stories similar stories of, of the vacuum mission and seeing before and the sentence, i don't know where to go. where, where should i go? i think what people really want to say is, i don't know what the world out there is. that's usually in my experience, what they're trying to say. a lot of these people are old in the small, tiny communities. that's where their world begins and ends and often times we've
12:10 pm
never been in the outside world and it's really the fear of the outside world. even though what their experience of experiencing at home is is you know, the possibility of death every day. the outside world is somehow scary or a to them. in the case of coupons, specifically, we touched a little bit on it and the report is that you know, because it was under occupation for so long because of its proximity to russia and the people there being particularly susceptible to propaganda. coming from russia, there are a minority of people, but they exist for harbor pro russia and a sympathies or opinions there. also, it's cool. piano has a proportionately the biggest rate of collaborators that investigators are looking into when it comes to the entirety of the hard key regions. and so collaboration would include things like, you know, passing information into rational authorities and really getting in the way of the ukrainian defense for so it's, it's a mixed bag,
12:11 pm
but i would say the majority of people which really keeping them clear is fear. yeah. very complicated. and very difficult situation there. meanwhile, a uh, ukraine is of course, trying to push russian forces further south and it's counter offensive. can you tell us what the latest is on their progress? right in the past couple of days we've heard you cream authorities announced that they have really taken the small settlement village of robots and in the southeast and the doctor read or a region. this is a small village. even pre award had a population of a couple of 100. but you know that the key about this village is that it's on the, on a road that leads 30 kilometers south to the town of talk mark, which is a our rail hub for russia at the moment. and then 85 kilometers from a robot to me. further down south is miller, 2 poles. and that's where, you know, that's what we're talking about. potential unit strategic games for ukraine. miller
12:12 pm
triple is known as one of the gateways to crania and ukrainian authorities have set time and time again. the crimea is the center of gravity of their counter offensive . and so potentially, you know, down the line, not right now. 85 kilometers is still a long way at reaching miller to pull could be of huge strategic importance to ukraine. and so we have to really watch how that done develops, but that village itself are bought to me is, or if you know is, is not very different from some of the other smaller villages that ukraine has been able to taking this counter offensive. and there are fears that with ukraine focusing so much on the south that as we've seen in that report, you know, that's over whelming, since in the north, where russia has said it is regaining that positions in that marquee region near cooper. well,
12:13 pm
thank you so much for bringing this up to speed there. that is data for us and we can bring you up to speed. now with some other world news headlines at this hour, a powerful $7.00, magnitude earthquake has rocked indonesia is resort island of bali. holiday makers were evacuated from their hotels when to play kit staff have been monitoring beatrice for signs of 8 su nami. so far there have been no reports of any casualties. rescue teams are evacuating residents in eastern and central. china is heavy, rains and flooding had the region. unusually wet summer has resulted in weeks of heavy rainfall. the government has called for measures to better prepare the country for future floods. and late july tie from dark. sorry, it caused the heaviest rain falling over a decade of the citizens military leader. of those, such a olive, or hon is an egypt on his 1st born visits in spite interrupted between the army and

12:16 pm
gas at water. if they can get any it's better to be prepared versus not prepared and have regrets. you know, we're calling as to whether sam backs will be enough to say floridians this time remains to be seen. but in this new age of extreme, whether it's the best shot, many here of got to let's go to the u. k. now and the driver's heading into london today will find it's just got a lot more expensive to take their cars. london so called ultra low emissions zone was introduced in 2019 to reduce pollution in the city. now it's being expanded from the center of the city to include the whole of the capital. the measures being championed by mer, city con, as bringing cleaner air to millions of residents. but it has proved to be hugely
12:17 pm
controversial. anyone who's called doesn't meet emission standards. now has to pay $12.00 pound 50 a day. that's around 15 years to drive anywhere in london. expanded ultra low emissions own or utilize covers an area that's home to over $9000000.00 people. the charges affect oldham will polluting vehicles, especially diesels. and that in addition to the congestion charge that everyone has to pay, if they drive in central london critics, they, the changes have been built into fost, which is 9 months notice. many have scrambled to buy a us comply in vehicle in time. that is pushed up, the price of used calls all in the midst of a cost of living crisis. and then what we find is if we do secure vehicles at a higher cost, that costs have to be additional cost, as opposed to going to the customer for us. they don't have is if i so it's not viable. but the city authority is done by that decision. later on this,
12:18 pm
the d con has promised financial aid to any london is false to scrap and non compliant vehicle. his administration points out that home full levels of nitrogen oxide of to exceed legal limits in london. any increase in equity is to be welcome because at least 3 corresponding reduction in the number of premier to a test that's the responsible thing to be doing. but the whole thing has also become political. just one example, conservative lead counsel surrounding london have refused to put up signs warning drive is of the charges. so many could get find because they don't realize that crossing the boundary. so for more on this story, let's bring in a database, corresponded charlotte chelsea hill in london. hi charlotte. wonderful to see you there. um give us a sense of the scale here. how many cars are affected by this policy on the board to now if this new expanded zone and according to once they got up to
12:19 pm
$700000.00 cards in the out, the bar is of london will now be effected. now that it gets a little bit dispute to the mayor of london who is behind this initiative says 9 out of 10 called weren't be effective date of compliance. but there has been a huge amount of criticism, none the less. now the mass as this is about cleaning up london's and he points to the fact that there are to be full thousands desk. yeah. link to pollution links pauses and all of london's neighborhoods on a or exceeds recommended pollution levels from the w h. i. so this is clearly a problem that a lot of the people that we've spoken to here saying that this is happening too fast, and it's sitting, watching people the hardest. within this debate, what role does the possibility of taking public transportation play? i mean, is that a reasonable alternative for people rather than driving these polluting cars into
12:20 pm
london? well, this is a capital city to very, it's clearly public information truck transport infrastructure in place it. but i have say, one of the criticisms through, again, from people that we've spoken to is that well, in a london central london, which has had this zone in place for a little while is very well set, top out of london. not so much a lot of people would point to the fact as well that some of those who will be effective with a drawing band possibly for work and then at these why can people who are facing these increased costs? now, what many of the critics say is, is a very bad time, a cost of living crisis at the moment that now facing increase fees. yeah. now one of them is, of course, not the 1st city to implement this kind of policy. what lessons have been drawn from cities around europe that have done similar in the past as you say, other cities do you have similar schemes in place? london itself has had it in place for a couple of years in a central and in
12:21 pm
a city. so these like felon answer them also have these schemes and generally across the board is found to have reduced the levels of this talk sick pollution in the a that is what is concerning the london mass, a much 6 there is success with scheme like this, but so many cities around well on now going forward is going to have to weigh up this balance. this conflicts often between reducing these pollution levels and making sure that the impact doesn't fall too heavily on watching people who thank you very much for that update. that is data. these charlotte chosen hill reporting from london while the spanish football federation has called for the resignation of its president luis ruby. all this visitors, hours after prosecutors launched a preliminary investigation into whether his actions amount to sexual assaults. we'll be all as kissed the national team player at jenny at. i'm also on the lips after spain, one of the women's world comp. meanwhile, to be honest, his mother has gone on hunger strike in protest that the way her son is being
