i'm clear, richardson, thank you very much for joining us. russia is a stepping up. it's response to a ukrainian incursion. boeing a tough reaction to the offensive on its own soil versus defense ministry released these images of what it says or strikes on a ukrainian tank and a drone in the western course region. the russian army says it also repels attacks near to villages. meanwhile, russian state media reporting more than 76000 people have been evacuated from border areas with the incursion now into it's 6. the day the local governor says more than a 1000 people were injured after ukrainian drones and missiles were shot down over the course. reach us for more on this story. let's bring in marina moran at the war studies department of kings college london. welcome back marina. as things stand

now, how long do you think you credit in troops will be able to hold on within russian territory a good evening, claire. oh, that's a good question because it depends on how fast the russians can get the reserves to the area. it seems that the temple, the personal temple has slowed and the korean forces on focusing on su joe, they are trying to cut off the city from the solace, but they're also ukranian troops in the us and to a lesser extent on coronado. that being said, the russians are also using a lot of air power and dropping fab, specifically on the assume a region to make sure that the ukrainians have difficulty sending in reinforcements . that's being sad. i would say that it will take maybe a couple of weeks at least for the sedation to stabilize. so this operation is far from being over and talk us through what you think ukraine's strategy is here in

the course could, could this be a push or to take more land to strength and ukraine's hand going into possible piece, negotiating negotiations, excuse me, in november, as some analysts have suggested, as well as there are many reasons for this offensive, and we have more operational tactical level reasons. and we have strategically come down political reasons. and yes, one of the political, a fax that is expected if the ukrainian forces can hold that territory, that will strengthen ukraine's negotiating position. these are the russia, even if you crave and have to sacrifice troops in the sense that a troops are needed elsewhere along the line of contact. meaning in ukraine was the russian forces are pushing in operational terms. they also want to have a psychological impact and not just on the russian population and the russian military

command, but also on the ukrainian population to show that the ukrainian on forces are still very capable of conductive offensive actions. despite the setbacks that we have seen in the past months. so there are many a send that of course they want to stretch the russian resources. so the idea was to relieve some pressure and repeat what the russians did was their hired people fan 7th, we call ukranian troops has to be sent into har keith to stop the russian offensive . so it is something similar. so they're mirroring this operational concept that the russians have used as a junior think this will offer the much needed boost to more all effort for ukraine to i think for now it will. of course ukraine has returned to, to the world media showing the kind of for the successful breakthrough in the chorus creek and right under the general staff. know, so it's a huge slap for russia in the information space. i think it has already been the

victory for ukraine in, in military terms. we don't know how that will play out if this operational success can be translated into the desired strategic effect. the effect that the brain is seeking to gain or, well it, of course, the russians, even for us, are in terms of um, volunteering to fight for their fatherland. and that is the fact that you create and doesn't necessarily want well, thank you so much as always for joining us. that is marina marana, at the worst of these department at kings college london. thank you for having me. and we can bring you up to speed. now with some other world news headlines, an overnight russian air attack on the kia region kills at least 2 people, including a 4 year old boy. ukrainian air force says rational launch for ballistic missiles and 57 iranian made head drones, the ballistic missiles,

head suburbs of the capitol while all but for if the drones were shot down at least 18 people have been killed in a landslide at a rubbish johnson, you gone to the castle, come paula. heavy rains caused parts of the landfill to slip and bury nearby homes . the site was composed only garbage trump for decades and had grown into a huge hill around the president has nominated diplomat abbas arg she to be foreign minister. if these are on the chief nuclear negotiator for 7 years until 2021. before that, he served as the countries and bassett or to japan and finland. iranian lawmakers still need to approve the nomination, however, their backing is considered a short. so the refresh reports that dozens of civilians from young mars muslim ro hangup might already have been killed in an alleged attack by separatist rebels, is reportedly happening in the western ra kind states this past week. according to

witnesses, a cited by the associated press and reuters news agencies, at least 150 people died after being deliberately targeted while trying to flee into neighboring bangladesh. the alleged attack near the town of monk dot is being blamed on the rock on army which has been fighting now mars military in the area. the revel group has denied responsibility for the reported killings. i'd like to bring in and kyle matthews, executive director of the montreal institute for genocide and human rights studies at concordia university. thank you so much for joining us based on what we know of this attack. why do you think that we have seen the ro hang caught up in it? was it directly targeted at them as well as the reading, the 600000 were remaining in myanmar had faced persecution, uh, black mattress, a school there still uh, mistreated minority. uh,

what we're seeing though is that this is a new phase of mia and mars conflict. i'm groups of take it up and are working together to fight them in our military june to and we have seen um, uh, the rowing got trying to flee and supposedly originally targeted by drones artillery by the american army. so that's what we know so far. but they really are a minority that, that, that the world was forgotten about and still face just a terrible situation in the amount itself. yeah, as you mentioned, there was a long history of persecution, of the ran good man, more or audience will remember a hundreds of thousands of people fled the country back in 2017 afraid military lead cracked down. then can you go into a little more detail about why we are now seeing additional people trying to leave as well for the case, the ring, the, they remain kind of forcibly contained in certain areas. there are a lot of travel through the country and they all have access to education to food.

so people are leaving because are absolutely desperate that the that's, that's the truth. the 2nd thing is be eric on army that's being working with other rabble groups to fight, to fight the military june to have basically to go over most of right kind of the state. and so there is a, a vicious fight between the arrogant army and the military due to right now and the rank are caught stuck in between that they cannot leave and they cannot sleep. so would it be possible that this is just the case of them being caught in the middle between this fighting rather than being the direct the targets of an attack like this? well, and that's what some are seen. however, if they were trying to lead to bond with nash as refugees to be returned by drones and artillery that signifies that they're being targeted for a reason. there are other reports that are a routine guttenberg at ash refugee's are being forced at gunpoint to return these

conscripted into militia groups or even within them in my military itself. so there, there was a lot of fun. there's a lot of problems over here. we know everybody's going in, but there are reports being detained. a detailed mentor as dr. the borders have helped so many people targeted by this violence and it doesn't seem like it just, it's a one off. it seems like there's a message here, either target them or for some mistake because they want to be can scripted to fight for rebel groups or in the army itself. okay, more information coming in, of course, on the story. but that is very insightful already goes to through the current situation and more, as you've said, we've seen diverse groups across the country fighting against the military. how effective have they've been in challenging the machine as they being phenomenally effective since the military over through the democracy of 2021 little bit long santucci, we've seen different real groups not just fight back,

but begin planning together. we've seen civilians from, from the capital for larger cities go into these rebel held areas and also joining the fight. and now we have is 3 brothers in alliance. these groups that have fought to their taking back territory. and people are questioning whether the military is going to survive to survive this civil war. they just lost a major military base last week. and things are not going well for the military. government and civilians are suffering because of in like you so much for joining us. on the w news with your insights that is kyle matthews, executive director of the montreal institute for genocide and human rights studies . concordia university. thank you. turning now to some other news. israel has ordered more evacuations in southern gaza as concerns rise overseas. fire talks later to start on thursday, tens of thousands of civilians have left their homes and hun eunice. and there's also been international condemnation of and is really air strike on a school being used as a shelter in gaza city as well. they're claiming it was targeting
