>> ukrainian forces are battling russian troops in the city that has europe's largest nuclear plant. this, after russia's claim that it has taken control of a major city in ukraine and vitamin pollutants forces continue to pound ukraine by land and air. this is all part of new peace talks underway. i'm kayleigh mcenany here with emily company went harris faulkner. joining us is john james and

casey wagner. this is "outnumbered." most of the officials in the ukraine just confirmed that the strategic city here has already fallen to putin's forces, and another is under siege. they do not go quietly -- violently waving the ukrainian flag. destruction is everywhere. hundreds of ukraine instead come antibodies -- torn apart by russia's high-powered weaponry. we are learning that russia may you considering a plan of public educations in the areas they've taken over in ukraine. this, as another ukrainian city says that medics cannot -- together it's dead and treat it's injured, because the russian bombardment is that heavy. russia's 40-mile convoy advances towards the capital city of kyiv. while the desk fox news reporting asked the president of

ukraine, zelenskyy, about support of the united states. >> we have good contacts. after the beginning of this war -- but you have my appreciation. we can speak openly. >> almost of the world -- stronger than the military of putin, with confidence. >> kayleigh: the whole world thinking of ukraine. >> reporter: items in that speech as well -- it was defining for president zelenskyy. this was not a great day for the ukrainians. the russians made a number of advances. we are getting new information about the tax here and around the country. it feels after the first few days, where we said that the

ukraine stage successfully holding back russian forces, with how long they can continue to do that -- they have called out for more. as you mentioned, that carries on today, the first city russia has taken control of. we believe they are in the city center, and passed through to all the people, but effectively said "toe the line, civilians. you will be allowed to live peacefully cometh ukrainian flag flying over to a foot else charge speed" if not, the wording that was "you will be raised to the ground." the same messages going out to other cities around the country. that seems to be what putin is offering. we have seen his attacks on urban centers, including an kyiv. it's concerned about what will come next. the russians are coming from three different sides of the country: north, south, east, now controlling more territory in

each. although some u.s. supporters -- they will continue to take that. to try and stop this committee ukrainians are burning bridges, blocking people from coming in. when that happens, putin reverts to attacking civilian centers. it's a worrying day, sad day in ukraine. we know that members of the u.n. have said that this humanitarian crisis has been broke growing exponentially. 1.1 million people have died of the country. it's not talking about sectors, that will have drowned in too. in a few days -- a worrying a few days, a worrying night in zelenskyy. when the sun goes down, you would maybe expect to see some artillery. a lot happening now. but in a and just part finish a press conference, and he

reiterated his usual points about neo-nazis, how the ukrainians are condemning -- that russia was somehow oppressed by ukrainians. >> we will be praying for you all. thank you, stay safe. traveling to -- the first regional capital to fall. lucas tomlinson put this out on twitter. "the french president has warned that the worst is to come in ukraine. russian forces will not stop until the country is conquered," that's what emmanuel mike rohn said after a 90 minute call with putin >> i've been to war. have been taught that when your opponent next threat, believe them. if you don't, it's your own peril. americans need to decide for themselves if they are willing to be complacent in, complicit

in watching the westfall? russia did not invade ukraine on its own. russia invaded the west. russia made a direct attack of aggression on our way of life. we are allowing it to happen. america is showing the world, russia, china that we are going to allow this to happen instead of creating a no-fly zone, destroying the 40-mile convoy that's going to terrorize the ukrainian people, instead of having strategic assets supporting you there. at six months after we failed to keep our promise to the afghan afghanistan -- make no mistake, the next 100 days will be critical in shaping the next 100 years. will we allow communists to do it? >> there is this eye-opening piece in "the new york times" by the head of the presidential office of ukraine.

he said this "i'm writing from a bunker." we will fight till last breath, are thankful to our allies. the quick decisions help us -- mark sanctions against the russian economy -- to deter the aggressor, but it's not enough. we need more. please stop telling us that military aid is on the way. our freedom is at stake here" he went on to say "put an embargo on oil," "do more." is there more that can be done? >> casey: sure, and it's mostly economic. the tragedy is a year ago, ukraine falls. that's a huge tragedy. america had energy independence, president biden came in,

starting shutting down the american energy industry. the price of oil and natural gas went through the roof. cute war chest to go to war. europe is dependent on russian energy for its survival. potent, as long as he wants putin, as long as he wants ukraine come he gets it. it's sad for the ukrainian people, and a wake-up call for the united states. i keep thinking, as a national security expert, where in history have we seen this before? it's the battle, 480 bc of the spartans, the 300 spartans. they fought off the entire persian army. at the end, those 300 spartans did not succeed. the persian army did come to greece, but they sacrificed those 300 spartans, got the

greek city states together, and fought off the persians. the persians never took greece. i think that what the ukrainian people have inspired is nato. nato was falling apart a year ago, nothing much to it. it was just a shell, largely because germany was not participating in its own defense. over the last weekend, the german government, in a reversal of its previous position, they said "we are going to going to diversify ourselves." they don't want to be on russian energy. "we are giving ukraine lethal weapons and will increase our defense spending to 2% of gdp." those have galvanized nato. whatever putin does with ukraine, the question, he always wanted to breathe it down the back of nato. this will be difficult going forward. >> kayleigh: i think so. >> harris: to further -- casey, what you just said is so eye-opening. why would russia be part of this

customer why would we let the russians sit down with iran for our proxy customer gets all about oil. germany gets 60% of that energy from russia. russia doesn't want to go without that, especially while it's being sanctioned. germany is probably in the best position out of all of us. it's like she's having an amnesia project going on. i want to add facts. 90% of court workforces are now in ukraine. this seems critical to me. john james, you are strategist. in general majority, the missiles are coming from inside ukraine. multiple systems inside ukraine, 160 from russia, 230 from inside ukraine, 70 from belarus and the rest of the black sea.

that tells you that the russian forces are so far inside that country that they are not missing their targets, and that's what that means to me. the comments i was making, those facts about germany having more of an appetite -- they know they can pressure russia. when are we going to get hungry like that come and not be late like the resident zelenskyy says we have been? >> there is this reports that apparently, there is disagreement among lawmakers about what to do. fuel prices are high for americans. we saw an increase in the national price of gasoline -- in terms of republican lawmakers that are calling for sanctions targeting russian oil and gas, democrats in congress are wary about russian all, how that could trigger a spike in oil prices. they remain open to ideas that would expand domestic energy

production, like the keystone pipeline. >> emily: this is also on the heels of today, the white house requesting $10 billion in further aid to ukraine that asks for not only security -- but economic and humanitarian. i keep going back to the comment earlier, where he said "it is great to connect with biden," which i paraphrase, and "it's a pity that began after the beginning of the war." i felt shame. ukraine was lost a year ago, there could have been so much demonstration and support that the united states could have engaged in. just today alone, while russia is going to hold a security council -- we know, as mentioned earlier in a 90 minute phone call to the french president emmanuel macron, putin recommitted to ante up the anti.

he said "i'm going to request more hostage requests from nato and the rest of the world, and i will see it through to the end." we are learning that the cities are encircled, 90% of troops -- are inside. this is why zelenskyy also said "the only thing that's going to achieve peace is me speaking with putin or the world recognizing that the world, collectively, is a greater superpower and military might than putin's forces" he's begging the world to step in and a stronger way. with sanctions, putin makes more per his invasion with the skyrocketing oil prices, making more by the day than sanctions are depleting him. he's sitting pretty while the rest of ukraine and refugees spreading through europe are fleeing and suffering. >> harris: because of the oil we are buying, it's not that.

germany is not the same size of the united states. getting 50% of the russia is not the same as making them the third largest supplier of a nation with 330 million people. we are definitely doing that. there was another time in history, to add-on to kc's point -- were so late to world war ii. millions of people had been tortured and put to death by the time we got there. we know how to be early. we just chose not to be. then, and now, certainly. >> why wouldn't these things be put in place a month ago? that's a question i will never understand the answer to. a strategy to cut off ukraine's strategic resources is starting to take shape. bill hemmer will walk us through how russian forces are ramping up the pressure, leaving a path of destruction in their wake. te complete balanced nutrition for strength and energy. woo hoo!

>> putin expanding his assault on ukraine -- takes its first major city of this war. he army is looking to shut ukraine off from the coast, as that 40-mile long military convoy closes in on the capital. it's bringing bill hemmer at the touch screen. >> good afternoon. as you look at ukraine, the capital city, kyiv, has a lot of action today. here in the south, waking up this morning, trying to take in all the reports and figure out what's happening. some of these towns have been overrun by the russian army, and -- it appears that there's not much of a ukrainian army in these locations. cutting our country down to with

her writer. this was a crime he taken in 2014. he russians had a strong military presence there, crashing into the northern part of ukraine from crimea. it was easy to do didn't seem like much resistance. this morning, waking up with this city of kherson, 300,000. according to the mayor, its fall into the russian army. it doesn't seem there was a strong ukrainian army presence. some videos, some military tanks, but otherwise not much presence. odessa ukraine is to be a target. officials talked a short time ago. they are not confirming that

there were amphibious activities. it has not been picked up by our troops in the u.s. let me clear that off and go one more. since the north. this is the north. why would you not have a significant ukrainian army in the east so cities, which are mostly russian-speaking, like kharkiv in the north, which has been getting hammered all week -- this area of the country has been contested for the past eight years. the russians moved in in 2014 lichen crimea. they took half of this area, but the other half is being held by the ukrainian army. there were reports that over 50% of the military were already in this part of the country. that would explain why there's not much of a defense in the south, as i pointed out a moment to go with these cities.

maybe, that helps us understand. >> what does this mean for the fight if it falls? >> i think what putin wants, he is clear that he wants to take odessa next. this right here is a place where there's a strong push back on behalf of the ukrainians. there's a big battle still going on for this city in the southeast, 450,000 people. if you were able to connect this area all the way to the east coast, mold over, putin might consider the southern region to to -- be secured by the russian army. if he's able to do that, what would he do next, even after ukraine? there's a sliver of land here. it's on the eastern coast -- the

eastern border of moldova. that's a separatist region like crimea. it's my guess that he would take this territory and connect it with this sliver in moldova. beyond that, i think it's anybody's guess. >> one of the things we are learning via jennifer griffin's reports -- she's been talking with senior officials in the biden administration. 90% of the military that were prestaged for russia along the border are now deployed. most of the missiles being fired are coming from inside ukraine. 230, compared to the 260 from russia, the 70 from belarus.

what does that tell you about what the enemy has been able to do inside that country? where are they all? >> those are mobile missile hunters. you are right. it's difficult to defend against. if you could have an air defense system, stinger missiles, but the russian military, the russian air force is not flying planes. the stinger missiles are pretty much just sitting in a foxhole somewhere. you are right about the reporting period for between 150,190,000 russian soldiers in selling belarus and southwestern russia, surrounding ukraine and the three sides, and if 90% of the forces are now in the country, that takes us to the northern section. this makes sense, doesn't it? what that senior officials said a short time ago is that they

are being met, and they are not entirely stalled. they are not moving quickly. kyiv is still a target for putin, said that on russian tv a short time ago. he said his target and really is the capital city, but how he gets there is an open question. does he circle it? does it go in directly? the video shows clearly that these missiles being fired at these towns are having a devastating impact on the people who live there, evident from the video. it's difficult to defend against. >> that helps it accomplish something that you can't with good rhetoric -- we call it "evil," but it's probably good from his perspective. it breaks the spirit of the people. when you know that a rebuilding effort goes from the ground up, that you may not survive it,

people you know once, it breaks your spirit. >> that is, many times, the objective in war. no javelin, no stinger missile can defend against what you are describing. if you've got mobile missile launchers moving throughout the country -- >> harris: complicated. >> on top of that, cruise missiles which could come outside of the country. think about kharkiv in the northeast. remember that video from three days ago? that was devastating. >> if you get more and more of that, so many more towns -- >> let me ask you. you have that map of the south. if you are talking about these port cities, and this area which is now gone. as monaco and is doing, he is cutting off access to the black sea, how important is that your access? >> it is important for them to have it. ukraine doesn't have that much of a navy. it is more important for putin

to control the waterway, and once he does, you know what he can do. i can put this in yellow. control this water space, he would have the ability to have another entrance point into the country. depending upon how long this goes, helen kyiv can hang on -- you could have an area of the country that can be entered that's not just in 7-8 days now. it would be an access point in the south. >> think it was always for that insight and analysis. moving forward to it, the international criminal court investigation into possible war crimes committed by russia, as new accusations emerge that put the blood of children on his hands.

proportions. more than 1 million people have been affected by ukraine declared by the when. many are heartbroken moms with small children clinging to each other. and ukrainian men between 18-60 have been drafted and told to turn around and go fight come in to drop their family off if they get that far. some just stay in the cities and fight. commotion from poland near the border you know, they say everybody has a story. it sounds cliche, but it's true, and for the most part the story is exactly what you were talking about here at the stage and camp area where we were, a couple more buses came in. they just emptied this first bus with refugees coming from the border, most of these are young

the families who have women and children, along right in, and then, they go inside this building. they are processed here. if you look at video from inside, you will have a sense of what's going on here. leaving from different areas in europe. these people -- all they want to talk about are the people they are leaving behind. take a listen. >> stay in kyiv. they are -- they cannot go here. >> are they safe? did you speak with them? >> they are safe. >> next, we don't know. >> they are safe or not, but we don't know it's going to happen. we see this playing out over and

over again. it's hard to tell how big this is in terms of the size of it from the picture, but here, 1 million poland. there's so many other countries already involved. what happens is coming off the bus, there will be assigned, a phone number, and somebody else will have another sign with the flag. these people come up, and it's usually volunteers from a church organization or charity group, and they are willing, free of charge, to take these ukrainian nationals pretty much all over europe. we are talking to everyone in germany, the czech republic, you name it. a refugee challenge for the entire european continent, growing by the day. >> airbnb, they offered up 100,000 homes to refugees to make it into those areas that you are talking about. thank you. families are trying to get out of ukraine with the war behind them. some have not been able to make it out.

this is unbelievable: a father crying over the body of his son. that teenage boy, said to be the victim of russian shelling, and outcome of the international criminal -- just opened up an investigation over the war on ukraine. i had a guest on today who stayed behind in kyiv, was in a close basement given logistics and communication support. she would talk about the hospitals -- she has seen these things. the world is seeing these things. of course there were crimes being committed. if we can almost in real time. >> that is all we are doing, watching, giving a standing, waving flags. that is what is so disappointing. before i left, i had the opportunity to work at the

international criminal court. i interned there interpreting and analyzing secret documents. that trial began because we used to have a democrat president who understood how to put his foot down. you talk about rocket and missile launches from this country. ten weeks air raid, ten week destroying, slobodan milosevic and his ethnic cleansing flags in the country. now, we still have the presence to solidify that region and that area. america used to not be afraid of thugs and communists like vladimir putin. now, we have an american president who is afraid of the green new deal paddlers. he is afraid of -- what's keeping everyone from doing the right thing. he is afraid of escalating tensions, when really, it's vladimir putin who should be

afraid of americans. >> president biden canceled 14 nuclear test because he was afraid of the threats vladimir putin made. we've come a long way. we understood but is capable when these dictators -- we have the opportunity to kill these dictators, and end their ambitions early. need to step up right now. >> as you were talking, one thing that comes to mind for me is this idea of how long you wait, and what president zelenskyy said last hour. from him -- spoken in several different language is. what a wordsmith, a master of communication that president does. when you look at president biden, what he is showing the world is that if the war came at his doorstep, he would not fight. if he would understand -- for people to keep their promises after ukraine has given up in

its ability to have nuclear weapons, president biden understand that. we are the biggest -- for president nato, and i argue, for any room to walk into. >> you have to be willing to put something behind those words, but yes. president biden -- great with colin coates and a high, but never follow the words. the other thing, whenever this is done: a week from now, two weeks from now, he does not stop there for two reasons. one, this is the first war we have ever had with social media all over it. ukrainian internet, tech savvy society. the second thing, when i was in ukraine in 2014, everybody i met: rich, poor, well-educated -- they all had a relative who had gone somewhere west. either the kids had gone to the waitresses in eastern and

western europe, or they had gone to college and were going school. they will all have a story to tell. there will be millions of perfect cheese this is finished there is a very there will be millions of refugees before this is finished. there will be millions affected. >> can, can anybody go after work criminal? i don't think we have to wait for the work to be overcome which is why that investigation is starting so quickly. i have been reading from what the prosecutor has been saying -- going after putin, why don't we do that? >> i think putin should be declared an enemy combatant right now, because he's being investigated as a war criminal. we should declare him as an enemy combatant and cleared to engage. >> do we let his threat of

releasing nukes or raising the alert level of his own nuclear arsenal keep us from doing that right thing to do come in terms of how we would identify him? >> no we want to support the ukraine people, but we are not going to send marines to downtown kyiv, for a lot of reasons. the question in the cyber community and the international community -- we poked at there. you've got to assume he's going to keep going mad with his next move? maybe, it's nato. we are getting into uncharted territory. nobody knows -- a mess of could take down a country does that spread today or to the united states, and what is our response? >> estonia felt it years ago. they were able to come back from at that point, but that's a

baltic state -- real quickly, were crimes. president biden was asked about that. >> he was. >> maybe we don't have the tape, but president biden said earlier today -- it was pretty much a direct vote "not sure if we have u.n. ambassadors -- lets us know what she said." >> we have seen videos of russian forces moving exceptionally lethal weaponry into ukraine which has no place on the battlefield. that includes cluster munitions and vacuum bombs, bando lee the geneva convention. >> she says these words, present biden saying is too early to say. there is a transcript of what we said, and we will pop it up. they crept out that portion of what she said. i hope the state department reporter will ask her she didn't

see the video or if something changed. i would like to follow-up >> dot she said it, we all watched as. >> she said it, we all watched it i understand there is an investigation, but you've got to have your own feeling, thoughts, knowledge about it. >> yes, and to respond to that earlier, a department to fund official said "we do not have yet to be confirmed about those weapons schools so i wonder if they -- right, had gotten ahead of it. >> you mean the video the cluster bombs? i'm just asking. backs of trucks -- anyway. >> to provide some more xs and os, the thought that we did not get too -- president biden, the importance of him saying it's too early to tell about were crimes, that was the second half of this

sentence. the first was him saying "it's clear russia is deliberately targeting civilians come close with one of the two were crimes being investigated. the second would be leading an armed incursion into a sovereign state the icc we are not a part of these statutes. our track record has been up and down. recently, we've demonstrated support for. obviously, we have lawmakers that are calling for them to investigate. also, 39 countries formally referred to this investigation to the icc, which is required to start an investigation. we were not one of them, because we were not reporting to the icc. we are continuing support -- demonstrates we are on board. we've also called on icj and the international court of justice, to do the same. part of the issue with international law is there is no enforcement.

the point is, who subscribed to and who doesn't. there's 40 cases that have been tried since the inception in 2002, including -- afghanistan. there are things that require additional support to follow through, which may be lacking here. the russian government is voting on a bill which could punish, by 15 years in prison, someone reporting unofficially. the people in russia do not want this war. if putin is held accountable, it may actually be the people of russia to this. >> if i could jump in, putin made his claim to fame -- the reason is president of russia was because he did commit war crimes. when he was making his way, there was a major rebellion in chechnya.

the previous russian leaders -- generals were not able to deal with it. putin came in and slammed chechnya, took every building made. every person was killed, every -- was somehow eliminated. he has that in him. the worry going forward is that is what he's going to do to ukraine. the world will be watching this time, and was not one he did it 20 years ago to chechnya. that's where we come into work crimes territory. >> the investigation does go back that far. >> that's a good point, we couldn't see it. when the president says on one part of the sentence -- it's kind of like "you are brilliant --" it's all coming together. after you are fully like-minded, or you are not. we will move on. brand-new video from

fox news alert: horrific devastation american from a town northwest of kyiv, following an attack by the russian military. it's kind of foggy great cars burning or destroyed, buildings destroyed. this looks like file footage of world war ii. parts of it when you look -- obviously, not the size of some of the buildings, the more contemporary textures, but they are reducing cities to rocks and sand. it's heartbreaking. not everybody makes it out. some people are below those buildings. what happens if they are in a basement area and -- we are starting to see so much damage. >> and it doesn't stop here. it's just the beginning of how bad it gets. it's going to be brutal. vladimir putin is not going to give up on this.

we'll go down with the ship if he has to, but he's not going to stop. he will level the cities of ukraine, and deliberately target civilians. if that's a very clear delineation of war crimes. if he deliberately goes after civilians, women, and children, that's a war crime. i hope he will be held responsible. >> european official conference to fox news that china urged vladimir putin to delay in invading ukraine until after the beijing winter olympics, and putin complied. russia of course invaded ukraine four days after the olympics' closing ceremony. beijing denies the allegations saying "these are speculation without basis, and are intended to blame shift and its mere china." john james, we have the timeline day by day. closing ceremony in beijing

happens february 20th. the day after, you have putin putting more forces on the border, the national security council meeting, the furious speech he gave. three days after that, february 24th, the vacation and february 24th, 3 days after that, the invasion began. >> china continues to aid and about terrorists. the only reason that the russians are able to continue is because of its relationship with communist china. i would saying for years, the growing smears of communist influence continued to affect us today, and our allies today, until we wise up and wake up and do something about it it will continue. china is russia and north korea's lifeline. they are biding their time to subjugate the united states, and we can't allow that. right now, unless we turn some

economic pain towards china and force them to be accountable for some of this devastation that's happening in europe, none of this will change. right now, vladimir putin is emboldened by the communists and leftists all over the world and this country who are taking half measures to the approaches. i don't find it unbelievable that china is abetting putin. we are going to have to go all the way from an economic standpoint, making sure we hold accountable -- i'm sorry, hold china accountable for allowing russia to move this far. do you and the council is compromised, and we are going to have to see if this is ever going to change. >> on the heels of "the new york times" report last week that there are a half-dozen urgent meetings between divided administration and china. u.s. intelligence was shared. here was the outcome. each time chinese officials, including the foreign minister, the investors in the united states -- saying they did

not think an invasion was in the work. putter officials got intelligence showing that officials from beijing had shared with moscow, telling directions that the united states was -- the story goes on. they gave this intelligence to the russians. as we go i think what happened, so seizing pain and flight number putin so xi jinping and flightnumber f talked about "if i get sanctioned, will you take it?" china probably said that they artie take one-third, so they will do it no matter what happened. in the statement, they talked about no limits. i think the third part was "putin, go and take ukraine, and we will look at taiwan a month

or two later." maybe putin was going to do a military operation, the chinese were going to do a cyber operation. this has been their arrangement all along. these guys are in cahoots. >> two bad actors. the other actor i question is the world health organization. the white house called them out for slow walking information alongside china and the world. people talked about civilian attacks on kids in cancer hospitals, and a basement and sentenced to death because they can't get their treatments. they will not name urgent -- >> almost an hour and a half press conference meeting. they only discussed it as a humanitarian crisis occurring in ukraine. they would mention russia once and failed to condemn putin or russia. keep in mind, the point is that the influence by china runs deep and wide. remember what happened in april

of 2020. when we froze our $400 million infusion regular contribution. china up to theirs. first, they set they said "we will give you an extra $20 million. have a $30 million?" they praised the w.h.o. and became an influential member in addition to, what has bn argued at the time as a deeply corrupt leader. of course a group like the w.h.o., who is in china's bed -- the rest of the world sees it for what's unfolding. we have what is supposed to be a partial medicine based, science-based organization failing to be black-and-white likely. >> they said they are not political, but i think putin deserves condemnation no matter what. >> the fact that it will just shared with us about the w.h.o. -- taking money from china. it can be more than a little

influence or access. we don't know where that relationship was going. the validations against the person believing them. we have no idea what previous relationships were like. if the origin of friendship when it when it's rooted in hating your enemy, particularly not. we still don't have access to the wuhan lab. the article that came out last week -- might be tied to that animal market. why can't we tie the facts with the coalition on the ground? the w.h.o. has never fall on our behalf. probably takes a lot more money than they thought they were going to get. >> well said, need to step up and call russian and bite him
