9:05 am
and military leaders say about the push into russia? sonya, the women assign offices. oh, just how big the scale of this incursion is we heard yesterday from ukraine. stop. i'm going to take a bundle and extend the 50, and he said that the queen all controls 1000 square kilometers in the glow screech, and he's also said that offensive operations there are continuing. we've had several reports suggesting that causes of your trade in troops and tanks and 7, you're printing military with data now involved in this operation we heard from president polanski as when last night. he is evening address. he has to be. you don't acknowledge the offensive and said the operation codes is isabelle. catastrophe for presidents. 14. now zalinski hasn't said much about the kind of goals and motives behind this incursion. he's kind of framed it as a way of pushing the world back into the a graceless territory. he's talked about rusher having used the coast region to
9:06 am
launch, you know, more than 2000 abriel strikes on you created territory this summer. and he's, you know, said that this is about a responding to that. and this is about bringing the wall closer home to russian and for 2 ordinary ukrainians make this development. sonya, how do they feel about their country's troops now finding inside russia within the symbolic level. i think this in cushion and culture because suddenly great or ukraine's more all now, did you credit into the i've spoken to ensure in keys. many of them seem almost taken aback of by this kind of shift in the one that attends off to you in a month. so bad news and setbacks on the battlefield. this lovely children, it's on. this is something we've also heard from residents of the northern you present region of to me with a resident 7 evacuated because of the ongoing fighting in the neighboring coast region. and i think one of the main tilting points here,
9:07 am
among ordinary premiums is really kind of the playland. since the price elements around this incursions, this is in sharp contrast with a highly publicized need up to the you don't for you to create income to offensive loss deal. so i think this is certainly welcome use of sonya to thank you. that was our correspondence. tony, public a and ukraine's capital key. several e u countries including france in italy are sending assistance to help greek authority use combat while fires encroaching on the capital, athens firefighters. others have uncovered the body of a woman in a birth help factory in athens, suburbs. the health industry confirms thousands of people were injured, as the flames spread rapidly, firefighters say they are no longer battling a single fire, but rather many localized places. entire neighborhoods, north of the capital had been evacuated. the residents could only
