>> russian shelling continues as putin appears determined to continue this war despite his new status as an international pariah. the west continues to squeeze the russian economy in hopes of putting pressure on moscow to end this conflict. >> mastercard and visa the latest company to suspend operations in russia. the western world stands in solidarity with president zelensky and the ukrainian people. jonathan, what's the story this morning. >> as we move into day 111 of

this war, the fighting rages on and a humanitarian catastrophe is unfolding on the ground. nowhere is that more pronounced than in the southern city of mariupol which has been subject to one of the most intense bombardments we have seen through this war. it's an important city. the russians are determined to take it. they are throwing everything in a military sense that they can at it. there were hopes for a ceasefire in that area yesterday. it turned out to be short-lived. it was supposed to allow some of the 00,000 people who were trapped there to get out, to have time to get away from the fighting. but within minutes of those people beginning to use that corridor. according to the ukrainian officials, russian forces opened fire. all of the civilians were

ordered back to their homes and badge to their basements to cope again with very little food, very little water and no power. they are trying to reestablish the ceasefire and reestablish that humanitarian corridor. but we have had no official announcements yet so those people remain pinned down. we have seen the krbian people e ukrainian people protesting against the russian invasion with nothing but ukrainian flags in their hands. when you think of how determined these people are standing there with just flags in their hands saying go home. but it's not work.

alicia: we are look forward tooe ukrainian capital. fox news correspondent brings is that story from ukraine. >> and that the death toll here is that russian sources are forcing thousands of civilians across the bombed out bridge across the safety of the capital. that is because russian forces are increasing and it is thought to be a matter of time. across the country that pigeons forces continued and what cease-fire had been

announced but that fell apart almost immediately as russian forces shelled. president zelensky had a call and he commiserated he needs more weapons and nato ally enforce the no-fly zone. >> is that the alliance we are building today that to get the green light for further bombing with a no fly zone and know who you can protect and when you can protect nato countries. >> ukraine is a doing that bad to fight back and has had success here russian helicopter is being shot down and the caption is welcome to hell and is giving some people hope authorities in belarus say negotiations will take place on monday there is a

much help at this point. kevin: a harrowing look at a video from the city in ukraine. it is disturbing but also the cold reality of what life is like in the country right now. mission military personnel firing shots against protesters again, those were supposed to be just warning shots but one protester appears to have been hit what so many people are facing each and every day. anita: the cease-fire on —- a cease-fire collapses with

russian forces opening fire with a barrage of was on —- cease-fire was probably an attempt to deflect international condemnation while giving themselves a chance for the renewed offensive. a former intelligence officer with the defense intelligence agency. thank you for joining us tonight. there was supposed to be a cease-fire allowing civilians to evacuate that humanitarian court orbit clearly that did not happen what can you tell us about that quick. >> if reports are accurate the russian military appears to be taking steps against the ukrainian people they are punishing ukrainians for their hubris to resist them it was a

horrific scene only a few minutes into it was broken by the international red cross and according to the reports the russians have done this a few times but just a few days ago on the evacuation right out of odessa it was anti- russian forces and from what i can see them mayor said that the efforts to bring in food and medicine while evacuating the civilians the power and water has been cut off to the city almost half a million people and of those 200,000 are said to be trying to evacuate from the city it is a desperate and horrifying situation. anita: it sounds horrific and i have read reports with ukrainians cannot even with the dead. russia is trying to accuse ukraine of breaking the agreement and keeping

ukrainian nationalist from leaving that who would believe that? >> it is true the russians are desperately grasping at straws as a former intelligence officer what i am seeing and taking from this the russian military is under severe pressure from putin himself russian forces are making little attempts for civilian casualties and in some ways this could be retribution for the forces are taking on the military and putin making good from when he said things will only get worse. >> the tenth largest city in ukraine the fourth largest in the southeast. heavy fighting. can you talk about the regional significance and why the russians are so desperate to capture it?

>> yes. as you mentioned in the southeast section of the country is right on the sea and a major airport city for ukraine itself. if it were to fall in the russians control the city itself. it seems they are really trying to acquire the entire coastline of ukraine. there are massive oil and gas fields in the water the russians are looking to exploit. anita: in the city is still under ukrainian control that can you add anything to the status of the city quick. >> from what i can see it's difficult to ascertain what is going on exactly. you mentioned the power and the water are cut off but with the weather ukraine the

highest only 34 degrees. it is quite desperate for these people. god help them in need of the support they can get. anita: former member from the defense intelligence agency, thank you for your time. kevin: fox news alert and severe weather strikes the upper midwest. six people including two children under the age of five were killed after i turn nato swept through central iowa and for others injured. knocking down trees and higher power lines and local emergency officials said more than two dozen homes were also badly damaged calling it one of the worst storms anyone has seen in that area in a very long time. the president of ukraine making a desperate plea to

honor a cease-fire so people can finally move to safety. we have much more on that as we continue our coverage. don't go away. the only ev truck that combines: 4-wheel steer a multi-flex midgate and up to a 400-mile range on a full charge and the only way to reserve it is at chevy.com. find your future. find new roads.

we are now live and we are standing by in poland any images are incredible. what you seeing on the ground? reporter: they are incredible. we are outside with the refugee customs area. a number of donations have fun in for these people who have little more than what they can carry on their backs perhaps a small suitcase. maybe one sixth of the size. civil we have been seeing here is people will come out to the customs and then usually there

is a line right care of people headed to ukraine. man and younger men and some women to help out whatever way they can or perhaps even fight so it has been interesting situation not only watching the refugees coming but other people headed out. >> and so when people step back they recognize as an american we would do the very same thing if we had to come back to another place in the globe we would do that. and obviously looks very chilly there but i'm curious about weather conditions and young children they are caught up in the devastating

circumstance. reporter: it is very chilly it's only morning here right now about 8 miles from the ukrainian border. definitely need to have a number of layers. sometimes it's knows it it is a very wet call the ghost the bones quickly. that volunteers have been ready for a goulash or soups or tea or coffee things to help warm them up. and everything they have been doing is making sure they have shoes or jackets really anything to distract them from this reality some excited to be given a new stuffed animal it has been amazing to watch as they try to distract them giving teddy bears are both playing doubles to add some

type of joy to a very sad situation. kevin: i had the advantage of for working with you watching you from all over the globe but from your perspective as a journalist how does this compare with us for quick. >> what is the most interesting i haven't seen anything like this. but i will start with a good part not only found the people right here in poland but we have seen a number of organizations coming in offering a safe place. on the other hand i have been very inspired by the mothers carrying their children whatever they can and propping families up on their back without their husbands or anyone else trying to stay as

strong as possible. these families are so determined it has been inspiring and obviously they are going through a terrible time. they have had to say goodbye to their homes and families not knowing if they are coming back the other thing i found extremely in spite —- inspiring is when it starts to be a really long line of people getting ready to go through customs heading to ukraine into danger they can upset by they have to help we saw an emotional moment this morning a family standing on the other side of the barge waiting for a young man on the train trying to stay strong until the train pulled away then they started to cry and hug each other but they were

seeing him at least one more time so it's heartbreaking but also inspiring. >> strong reporting from lauren. be safe as you continue reporting and thank you again we went to welcome back our senior correspondent jonathan has been with us. obviously we are hoping a cease-fire somehow last night we had a chance to speak about this and it doesn't like that held so is there any chance from your perspective we can revisit a cease-fire to let more folks get to safety? >> there was talk of the local cease-fire going into effect the area we have been talking about that city in southern ukraine that has been under

bombardment by the russians we have seen no move toward that but as you point out it collapsed pretty quickly yesterday ukrainian say russians opened fire to set foot on what was supposed to be a safe core door. there is a desperate plea from ukrainian president zelensky to keep the humanitarian core doors open. that has not happened so far. cinelli have our fox news contributor with us. if you see russians opening fire just minutes after a cease-fire is declared, what kind of evil is that? >> it is unimaginable and it speaks to the desperation of the russian military who would have expected this would be a

relatively swift victory? and expected the forces would rollover ukraine that has not happened. even though countries have some huge success in other parts of the country it has not dominated the north. that is really important and has not broken the will of the people. humanitarian core doors is one way to break the will of the ukrainian people. that those people have shown amazing resolve as you have seen with them, as you are there with them and the humanitarian core doors, that catastrophe that already exist will do so much worse.

kevin: we are hearing there is no food or water. and you expect even in times of war there are rules of war there are norms of human behavior but do we in the west have to forget that and think we're dealing with a man from world war ii who is not going to obey any of the rules of war even the most basic. and we have to get that into our heads and respond accordingly quick. >> we cannot ever let go of the rules of engagement and the humanitarian dimension of work and with those negotiations the third round that begins on monday the ukrainian delegate has to understand they have to press

hard for a cease-fire at least for a time to move people through some of the most dangerous parts of southern and eastern ukraine that has to happen. we are also watching. we have to have resolved with those we cannot let that go away because of a vladimir putin is doing. it's also though west which has become more unified about the conflict and has shown a lot of resolved if you notice in addition to the humanitarian corridor and vladimir putin himself is talking in a broader sense. in terms of the rhetoric.

that is tantamount to a larger war. and has said in recent days any airstrike against aircraft above ukraine will be met with an immediate response. kevin: you are absolutely right. president putin is looking at this and may well follow those steps. agreed to talk he —- great to talk to you. kevin: thank you. anita: the president speaking with president zelensky and let the united states is willing to do to have up the pressure coming up next.

and the, “wow, i'm learning about my family.” yeah, yep. which one, what'd you find? lorraine banks, look, county of macomb, michigan? look at grandma... hey grandma! unbelievable. everybody deserves to know who they are and where they came from. ohhh...cool. this whole journey has been such a huge gift for our family.

anita: day number 11 on russia's attack on ukraine more than one.4 million ukrainians as vladimir putin claims the lives of innocent civilians. once again the latest on the ground. reporter: in the words of the organization doctors without borders there is a humanitarian catastrophe unfolding here in ukraine across the entire country but no more so than the said the city for which is one of the most intense bombardments we have seen through the 11 day war. 200,000 people are trapped they have little food and little water a cease-fire went

into effect for a short time yesterday. it was supposed to allow the 200,000 civilians to escape but ukrainian officials say russians broke the cease-fire and opened fire within minutes of the first civilian setting foot along the corridor. and they are sheltering their this morning there is talk of trying to bring about a new cease-fire. >> thank you we will touch base with you in just a moment. the president of the us and ukraine speaking by phone that to discuss pressuring russia with sanctions and financial support for ukraine. now we go live. first of all i know it has

been a harrowing time but how are you holding up quick. >> thank you very much. even though on the russian list i stay in ukraine to coordinate production of medical supply the biggest pharmaceutical company in ukraine we continue to ship but that is very critical the russian soldiers are shooting civilians and not allowing core doors. we have people up north and russian soldiers are hiding behind civilians there are all the casualties now they are shooting into the houses with high caliber machine guns.

>> i've had the fortune of watching you on video you are not just a formal politician that a dynamic business leader but i hear great pain in your voice. how are you getting through all of this as you continue to fight for your countrymen? >> the key is a strong will for the ukrainian people to stand. this is fundamental we feel the support where this is coming from and we salute everyone go stand with ukraine and support the sanctions but what i would like to add to a businessman is stopped trading with russia any businesses killing of civilians.

help us to shield the sky any discussions and then help support to ukraine and with the medical supplies and i salute those volunteers who are ready to join with the freedom of ukraine. >> so many people from around the globe and in particular those who are interested in how well you are fighting and defending the homeland against an unprovoked attack. you mentioned humanitarian needs and there is a financial relevant on —- element. looking at the other side of the financial picture, there has been having sanctions against russia. not total sanctions there is still russian oil that we did learn that visa and mastercard

are enforcing sanctions against the country. does it make a difference? >> absolutely. the panic is gradually growing because they are needing to stand up in russia has any access to soldiers because back in december they issued an order that allowed russian soldiers so there is no information within russia and those that have been killed in ukraine and if you have somebody in russia spread the news pressure will be defeated in ukraine and they will be

together as one strong alliance. >> we appreciate your perspective and we wish you the most safety for yourself and your countrymen. thank you for joining us. russian president vladimir putin threatening other nations if they set up a no-fly zone over ukraine. and when leaders are standing up to mr. putin and that is inspiring the world. coming up.

anita: about the bag russian president says any country that tries to set up a no-fly zone will be seen as participants in the conflict. we are now standing by in london's. reporter: for now the no-fly

zone is by nato but president biden was speaking to the ukrainian president zelensky and financial assistance and military support for the ukraine all of this the us supports for the us and other western countries angers vladimir putin and with those sanctions he has lashed out comparing comparing his declaration of war. now others are saying they are suspending their operations in russia credit cards or atms and this follows many other companies and meanwhile in ukraine continuing to escalate the military campaign warning the ukrainian state at risk.

matters with intense russian shelling overnight it is a key strategic port in the southeast of ukraine a very important price for russia as it tries to create a land transit corridor between russia and crimea that also cuts off from vital. as this continues around ukraine thousands of women and children are trapped so that men say that civilians came under fire as they try to evacuate yesterday. this is causing global outrage and then to protest around the world with hundreds of people gathering point and of the fighting and more protection. but meanwhile there is a human tragedy unfolding estimating around one.5 million refugees

will have fled the country by today and it is expected to rise. >> going back to the northern part of ukraine for the very latest on the ground there. reporter. >> as always the suffering of children is one of the most heartbreaking things we see here. we just heard from the president of moldova 30000 children have arrived over the border with neither of their parents. children who are completely alone it is another heartbreaking so women in leadership are inspiring the world by standing up to their country hearing ukraine. the next guest has worked here

helping women run for office. great to talk to you so getting our perspective first of all on these heroic efforts for so many mothers to get their children safely out of the country. it's heartbreaking looking and to see the work they have to do. >> thank you jonathan for your incredible reporting. it is heartbreaking. we know out of the one.2 million have fled ukraine and has been men women and children but those that are staying behind are also fighting to maintain democracy in ukraine and that is what i have seen firsthand and how these women are resilient. they will not be intimidated

by tyranny. i have seen them fighting for a more inclusive society and fighting for their families and now the world is witnessing this to beauty queens and so many women who has been elected to office in ukraine. that is what is inspiring the entire world that ukrainian people are facing right now. >> and the president of moldova is a woman. how important is it to get more and more women into positions of power? what does that do for the whole world quick. >> it makes such a difference and quite frankly ukraine has been on the frontline fighting

for their democracy and their rights against russia in ways that we can take inspiration from. not just here in the us but around the world. my trip there, i actually arrived in kiev april 2014 when there was still smoke coming from independence square and has never been more inspired by women leaders and of course i've been inspired by the women here in the us but to see those limited resources that women from across ukraine has to help clear the mission for democracy in ukraine that something of never witnessed before. and that is why our hearts and

souls are going out to them and that will continue great to see visa and mastercard pull out of russia great to see the world rally. that's because what they see what the women do on the ground. >> you do great work in the united states and thank you so much. it is heartbreaking to see all the women and children gathering here. and then trying to get even further west to what they consider safety.

>> in the meantime urging lawmakers to do much more to help deter vladimir putin's assault on their country. that story coming up.

anita: over zoom call with senators and president zelensky he is requesting more legal aid claiming the sanctions to push back the russians. we joined by former naval intelligence officer , mr. jordan thank you for joining us we appreciate it. we know that president zelensky spoke with more than 280 members of congress and spoke from the heart that really did have a plea for help and ask for a no-fly zone and he asked her claims specifically because they know how to fight them. those are potentially coming from poland and what can you tell us about that? >> there are similar type to it ukrainians are fine i have them flying airplanes 35 years in jets for 25 of that.

it's not really that simple there are some technical challenges and to get to ukraine to go through that effective weapons a lot has to happen and gps navigation. of how those weapons are used in integrate the software and it is very different in many important ways. as long as the slayers nation has happened they need to get those ukrainian pilots into covid to start the training as soon as possible. because it's not just a question of knocking down the russian bombers but by having fighters it makes using helicopters very dicey for the russians.

they pack a lot firepower but the russians also use helicopters to move the troops around. and undertake reconnaissance. so if they were going to buttress the air force that would be the russian army on the ground as well. anita: you mentioned on this will take time that the ukrainians don't have much time. also in the us, can these planes be provided cracks. >> and then the administration feared escalation that nato and the us have legal aid already. so they are all tools of war. anita: by everything we have

seen vladimir putin is a war criminal is there any way to hold him accountable for what we are seeing? >> international, court is looking at this undertaking investigation. putin would have to be removed. that president putin would have to remove the power before those proceedings. >> we will be watching that. thank you for joining us we appreciate it. stick with us we have much more coming up. to make as we continue our lives special coverage of the assault on ukraine don't go away coverage continues next.

despite threat of russian military convoy closing in on the capital. >> -- very hard, my nerves are shredded everything jumbled, really hard -- >> russians should get out of our country they should go home they have nothing to do here we are a free independent country. >> vladimir putin threats as well any country that innovatives no-fly zone over ukraine will be seen as a participant in armed conflict. >> thousands ukrainians made it to the border. >> jonathan hunt live on the ground in lviv with the very latest what are you seeing there? >> a anita as we move into day

11 of this war, the humanitarian ruptures more heartbreakingly clear perhapss no where more than southern city mariupol russians want to control it bombarding with artillery shelling several days now we are told that some 200,000 civilians are stuck in mariupol supposed to be as cease-fire yesterday to allow those to escape went into effect and some of those began moving trying to get out but almost as first civilian on that metaphorical corridor russian forces according to ukrainians opened fire again, so the civilians of mariupol had to flee back to what remains of homes surviving

with little water little food, no electricity we spoke yesterday to one ukrainian delegates ongoing he said he hopes, that there may be another attempt to get them out today listen here. >> our idea is to good morning we have a cease-fire control the cease-fire for one hour important, confirm people there then we start evacuation process. >> but we have no sign of a renewed cease-fire as yet. in the meantime, ukrainian people are protesting the russian invasion wherever they can, extraordinary pictures coming out of the city of kherson yesterday controlled by thank you russians ukrainian people armed with

nothing but their national flag, walking up to lines of you see chanting at you russian troops to go on to go home extraordinary display of bravery there was shooting by russian troops into the air we understand one person may have been hurt but extraordinary bravery of those ukrainian people, just determined to do whatever they can to show russians how unwelcome they are try to force -- across ukraine anita kevin, a remarkable display of fortitude on the parted of people who are under such intense pressure kevin? >> incredible, jonathan this you again back to you, meantime fighting erupting in ukraine russian invasion advances, near front lines

gunfire sending civilians fleeing for their very lives, trey yingst brings this story so that black smoke, many cities 60,000 are evacuating aubs russia attacks from air and ground. >> -- >> a war, it is a real war -- now it is -- you can feel it, and, of course -- >> she mans to go to kyiv and train station before west to lviv others have not got that far many get out of line of to a ir. >> they are leaving their entire lives behind whatever they can pick up you see bags -- and belongings, they understand this war is closer and closer to their home tun they have to get out of the away. civilians rushed to safety ukrainian so will relowed head back into battle rpgs

ukrainians that story as we continue coverage on fox news, retired air force brigadier general, i think i want to see ukrainians defend their homeland against what appears to be unbelievable plea unprovoked unjustified assault by neighbors to the east when talking about, doling out aircraft, swapping out aircraft, i think things could get obviously, very complicated politically for this country and more broadly for poland, of course, on the doorstep of russia your take on that? >> kevin thanks for having me great to be with you. i would say, that it is vital that nato come together, we did -- and for not going to be involved militarily we certain have to show solidarity, ukrainians have fought value ently more than willing to defend their sovereign nation they are a partner nation, and

getting those jets and materiel equipment into hands so they can wage this battle, they've earned our support and respect we have to give it, because you what we can't do is show weakness right now, in a very determined enemy. >> i know a difficult question for you, because i would like to keep the conversation on specific ifks of air characteristic, seems that vladimir putin positions puts him in the category of a possible war criminal, is that your take on what you've seen based on what his country has done to his neighbors? >> it is really is, his kevin, his fall in the last month has just been stunning, you know, often been truck, menacing over the years, but he's gone from fear and respected global leader to -- like level that

we saw from slobodan milosevic, or saddam hussein, targeting civilians he is targeting civilians, these are egregious war crimes, the weapons cluster bombs terrorizeing the population, in fact, bearing down on nation that he says was not even sovereign country should have him under investigation and i really hope the russian people because i don't view this as war between russia and ukraine it is actually a war between vladimir putin and ukraine. i hope russian people who understand that sooner that we can help toward an investigation, the better off the world will be. >> general joining us we continue coverage on's news channel on the war in ukraine. by thank you russians i want to ask you about airpower, it is, obviously, u.s. nato

partners want to enforce no-fly zone certainly we can do that i am not convinced it is necessarily going to lead to world war iii if that happens but that aside let me ask you about possible stingers into hands of ukrainians in any case a possibility to sort of lev playing field if you will. >> i agree with you all counts. the minimum we should not be taking this -- no-fly zone off the table it should be in options, however materiel category they have really done very well with stingers, the russian air force -- lost several aircraft, but i would like to see them get their stingers replaced javelin placed they need missiles very quickly in odesa region where russian native is bearing down. >> absolutely russia. about getting migs from poland

to ukraine i recognize i am a bit of aviation buff different than sending american hardware swap out. still would seem to me if poles can help ukrainians with a few migs might be useful your take on rifktsdz for poland. great to get aircraft in hands of ukrainians not front line focuses, at this time but i understand this is no time for poland weakening its hand on that he frontier border replacing migs with f-16s great idea ukrainian power, alongside afghanistan, some -- with our weapons systems in the united states if we have access they could be you've to

ukrainian pilots to get a short a qualified force a great weapon in their hands we do need to put materiel they need into their hands. >> -- maybe warthog or two would certainly do the trick general always we appreciate your too many with us thou for expertise in a light moment as i say, farewell to this conversation, go dogs, congratulations. >> can you. >> you bet general holtz joining us. >> on severe weather situation in midwest authorities say 6 people including two children under five were killed after a tornado swept the central, on saturday four errs injured winds knocked down trees power lines a local energy official said more than two disease homes were badly damaged,

minutes, of the first civilians taking steps along that metaphorical he corridor ukrainians say a russians opened fire those people just trying to get to safety, sent scurrying back to homes down into basements whatever on the ground shelter they could find, and they are in appalling circumstances there was talk of another cease-fire locally going into effect this morning we have not heard that has happened so those people still living under attack constantly attack you can imagine how terrifying stressful that is. in the meantime ukrainian i civilians in other cities are taking their protests right to the frontlines right up to russian troops. we saw extraordinary scene in city of kherson another southern city yesterday

hundreds if not thousands yuk angry people walk up to troops armed with nothing but bare hands ukrainian flag shouting screaming at russian soldiers go home leave us alone top invasion go back to foemz collateral president putin has no, he attention where you go any troops the attacks go on indiscriminate bombing shelling of civilian targets cross ukraine continues we have this humanitarian crisis unfolding close to one and a half million people kevin have now fled ukraine, looking for safety, in the neighboring western countries poland moldova romania slovenia hungry secretary blinken in moldova that borders ukraine we were there a couple days ago moldovan president said a

short time ago 0,000 children arrived there i children with no parents at all, sent by families or indeed in cases tragically both parents killed those children 30,000 arriving in moldova alone. >> incredible humanitarian crisis promises only to get worse in days and perhaps weeks and months ahead jonathan thank you. we will check back with you in moments for now continue coverage with anita. anita: thank you kevin devastating hits from russian mills artillery shells a city more than 85 miles from kyiv showing devastation witnessed firsthand thank you for joining us you are a journalist in ukraine, i can't imagine the things that you

village during day back to city we think a little bit safer in the village, more -- less likely that you can be hit by another strike. anita: let me ask you about your president zelenskyy i want to talk about how he has transformed himself in conflict, into a unifying, aboveboard leader even most hardened politicians in washington seem in awe of him. >> i can tell you, very -- i didn't vote for zelenskyy but, to know -- i am ready to work for him now because i think that all he is doing now is -- is best thing that any other leader can do during the last 30 years, and i think that you

most ukrainians really support him, in -- today. for he -- very -- as a leader you know he used to be a showman actually, but now he and his team as i see it, they are doing their best, and the people in ukraine are united around this. >> thank you so much for giving us this very realistic look at what is happening in villages across ukraine, a total, to the destruction devastation, from russian bowles missiles, be safe. thank you so much we look forward to seeing you again thank you so much. >> thank you. >>. >>. >> incredible pictures there anita please be safe, we look forward to more of your

>> coverage of the war on ukraine continues 41 minutes after the hour i am kevin corker in washington vladimir putin says any country trying to set up no-fly zone over ukraine will be viewed as taking part in the conflict ukraine president zelenskyy urging it in a not only set up no-fly zone obviously, denied thus far asking for more help we go live to london, kidy i think everyone would love to see safety and security for the ukrainian people the idea

of no-fly zone appears appears a nonstarter for the u.s. administration. >> that is right u.s., it in a countries, ruled out, simply because they say it would spread the conflict because it engauge russian aircraft maybe in full ukrainian president about that, but there has been a conversation, saturday between president biden and ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy on discussion between two understood humanitarian assistance, medical aid, also, more military support for ukraine and financial sport now is badly needed, western

countries -- russian president vladimir putin as they start, apparently to declaration of war, now comments come as leaders say they will spend operations in russia that means, credit cards won't work at atms, stores other locations, now that follows many other companies withdrawing from russia, but russia continues to escalate its military campaign and what we're seeing now russian troops trying to in each ncircle cities one is mariupol a strategic port in southeastern ukraine that will be vital to russians to capture if it wants a border to crimea what we're hearing

this morning that there is is a tentative agreement again to allow civilians to escape until then under constant bottom barredment from artilltry airstrikes, many, many people remain trapped. and that where fighting continues, so does global outrage about russia actions we are seen protests around the world including in london hundreds of people gathered to call for a stop to fighting, but for now fighting continues if not intensifies what we're seeing a constant outpouring of refugees from ukraine, u.n. saying -- for 1.15 million by the end of today back to you. anita: very best, we appreciate that touch base again in a few, meantime we welcome again chief correspondent jonathan hunt, continuing to keep us up to

date what is happening on the ground there, good morning jonathan. >> good morning, again kevin we can see obviously, just how this war, is, publicly with constant fighting continue bottom barredment artillery shelling of so many ukrainian cities but there is another war that is going on out of sight it is an information war if you like. the sharing of intelligence by so many countries, involved now, finland sweden not it in a members traditionally neutral agreed to share more intelligence with united states, and with nato, mike bearish former cia operation officer, talk to me a little bit about difference of intelligence makes here the significance of finland sweden

being willing to sheer more. >> significant, in sweden is -- it speaks to vladimir putin -- said for years regime has that you are not to entertain ideas of -- closer to nato joining nato same to ukraine, same concept that he has overall, which is nato should never moved past germany he wants to roll nato back to 1990 demarcation, and that is that is -- overall thought process, so the threats -- just recent about -- an issue, similar to what they said in the past but this now, sweden

finland based on ukrainian -- the invasion it is up to us we will do what we believe is best and that means, in a sense closer to nato didn't say would join but sharing of intelligence is an important step. . >> i am fascinating we see what is going on in terms of shelling bottom barredment we see a picture on our screen there, some stinger missiles funneled into ukraine, taking down, a helicopter, there is and obviously, we can't get into details but, you know, better than anybody, what goes on beneath the surface here how significant is what -- the cia and other intelligence services are doing behind-the-scenes what difference does that make in a war like this? >> i think tremendous

difference, sharing of actionable intelligence important part actionable is critical to ukrainian military, and we have -- a longstanding, and robust relationship with ukrainian forces, very, very capable obviously, as they've shown resilience incredibly effective but to get intelligence into the hands of ukrainian military, so that it can be acted on not assessment not a narrative but real time intelligence is critical important whether u.s., to our nato allies what we have, relationship with -- the uk for instance -- again so again going back to -- the ability to -- finland with war on russia a long history assessing looking at

understanding, everything, to russian military, that is critically important at a time like. >> former cia covert operation officer, thank you so much kevin anita obviously, that we are seeing, what we are seeing on our screens every day in terms of the bottom barredment but equally obviously, that organizations like the cia other intelligence organizations are doing a lot more that we don't and cannot know about at this point at this point, but, clearly, we hope will make a difference as the world traces down russia back to you guys. >> thank you so much behind haenz russia financial system in is the array companies like visa mastercard pulled out service, chief development

officer joins us next. . bombardment both of

them bombardment bombardment i fox news special coverage war on ukraine cons i am kevin corke russia financial system

another major hit saturday, visa mastercard russian operations travelers not able to use cards in russia in person or on line, russians not able to use cards -- russia -- chief development officer joins us live to give perspective i have so much to get so little time let me begin asking you about, what advicea mastercard decided to do, do you think that it helps in with a way might that put squeeze on russian economy? >> thank you so much for having me this early morning -- i see, master card visa shutting down operations in russia feel that this will escalate the pressure on russia, what they are doing, ukraine i think a novel

limiting eradicating use of their card in and outside of russia, russian federation i think more companies, doing something similar like this. >>. >> one of the things i like about our conversations we tend to you can pack business the short amount of time we have left i you ask you do sanctions really work? >> they do, they really do work i think u.s. sanctions imposed by biden administration a lot of pressure on russia make them think twice what type of war they are getting into with ukraine, allies nato united states i think that it is true what earlier in the broadcast we don't know everything going on i know in intelligence briefing that president has, blapsh perhaps what cia knows average person at home does

not know about i think what we saw according to poll president biden approval rating up 8% people felt strong state of the union speech that he had in, and felt economic sanctions were very important i think intoing cyberhacking we have to look out for 70% of people in that are worried about potential russian cyberhacking might be something we have to look out for. >>. >> we appreciate perspective we will have more kfshgz in the future thank you again my friend we continue coverage on fox news channel as war on ukraine continues, we are going live, to ukraine and all about eastern europe as we continue our coverage. don't go away. .

president volodymyr zelenskyy, as they fight vladimir putin's army. kevin: a humanitarian crisis taking shape. 1 million people fled ukraine and that number is expected to continue to climb. >> my husband has to join them. anita:vladimir putin has a up to his rhetoric threatening any country who threatened a no-fly zone. kevin: that is what the president of ukraine wants particularly the us and nato, or to lend them their firepower. jonathan hunt joins us again. >> reporter: that no-fly zone is a nonstarter because it would, officials say, bring nato aircraft indirect conflict with russians and could spread to a wider war.

the humanitarian crisis has turned into a catastrophe, nowhere more so than in the southern city of mariopol, southern city russians are determined to take. they been bombarded with artillery shelling for days introducing unimaginable conditions for the people of mariopol, some 200,000 people are stuck in mariopol. there was a brief cease-fire yesterday introduced to allow some of those 200,000 civilians to get out to something approximating safety but within minutes of the first of those civilians going along this corridor according to ukrainian officials the russians opened

fire, that sent those civilians running back to safety or what they consider as safe as they can be, the basement of their homes, underground shelters, they are suffering terribly. we are told there is little food in mariopol, very little water. there is no power. there is talk according to one of the delegates to the peace talks, i ukrainian delegate, of a new cease-fire. we haven't seen anything formal but there is talk of it. >> to repeat the cease-fire, it is ready for one hour so both sides -- then we start evacuation talks. >> reporter: in the meantime

ordinary ukrainian people keep standing up to the russian army in the most extraordinary ways. the first to be the russians took control of, kherson hundreds of thousands of ukrainians approaching russian troops armed with nothing but the record ukrainian flag screaming at russian soldiers to leave their city, leave their country, give them back their freedom. the russian troops opened fire at one point mainly firing in the air but extraordinary act of defiance and bravery from ordinary ukrainians. anita: they are magic up to those russian soldiers, the personification of bravery. in the meantime heavy shelling forcing people to flee from a

village 15 miles from the ukrainian capital. benjamin hall brings us that story from kyiv. >> reporter: attacks on civilians have increased, the death toll has risen in a town 50 miles from where we are russian sources forcing thousands of civilians to flee across the bombed out bridge. how long it remains safe nobody knows, russian forces increasing their push towards this the, and a matter of time before they take it. across the country, other cities as well, vladimir putin s forces attack civilians. a cease-fire fell apart honest immediately as russian forces shelled the save court or. volodymyr zelenskyy called sanders earlier today to reiterate he needs more weapons for a week nato for refusing the new fly zone. >> is the nato we want to?

the alliance you were building? the green light for further bombing, by refusing to make a no-fly zone. i don't know who you can protect and whether you can protect nato countries. >> reporter: they've had some success fighting back, this video shows a russian helicopter being shot down. welcome to hell, giving some people hope. you see defiance and defiant voices. authorities in belarus say a third round of negotiations will take place monday but not much hope for a break. kevin: a harrowing look at a video from the city of yuzhoukrains'k, what it is like for many people in the country

now, russian military personnel firing warning shots at protesters. watch and listen. [gunshots] >> reporter: those were supposed to be warning shots that at least one of the protesters was by fire. one example of the chaos and danger so many are facing each and every day. let's bring in a political correspondent for dailymailtv. are there any parallels from your perspective in what we are seeing now in comparison to something you've seen in your career? >> reporter: there isn't a parallel like this. you are seeing a lot of clean communications from one city to

the next. what is happening in kherson is emboldening people and that will embolden people in kyiv. it is a tiny dot on the map. it is not chicago, it is like a small town in nebraska. there's nothing there worth defending but they do it anyway. you will notice something about countries whose enemies are geographically nearby, poland comes to mind and ukraine. there patriotic symbols are more aggressive and energetic than ours was our national anthem is about an 1814 battle we won forever ago. ukraine's is a life or death peptalk. it is called ukraine's glory and freedom are not dead yet, perfect rallying cry. we played on our souls and bodies for our freedom and ukrainians are spontaneously singing it everywhere because it was only made their national anthem 30 years ago when they got rid of the soviet union. we have nothing like this. kevin: let me ask about what we

have seen politically in this country. we spent a deal of time talking about the zoom call with volodymyr zelenskyy and american lawmakers. do you think that the communication that is useful in a circumstance like this and how much pressure might that bear on the biden administration? >> i don't see it mattering. ultimately it is only president biden who can decide whether to put boots on the ground or provide lethal legal pressure nato for immediate and your quick entry into ukraine which i can't see any senators on that car, certainly not the republicans. the big question at least on the policy front is whether or not america is ready to ban the import of russian oil. that is something volodymyr zelenskyy wants, it is a hard sell to biden because he might rollback some energy policies,

open more lands to drilling, all kinds of things the white house doesn't want to do and part of what volodymyr zelenskyy is asking for. kevin: extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. if we are not going to be involved militarily and i'm not suggesting we ought, it would seem to me this administration would want to do obligate from a policy perspective to economically aid a country that has been attacked in an unprovoked manner. when we talk about dollars and cents in the us, i heard numbers throat about with respect to aid to ukraine, people say $6 billion but the truth is we've been in this town long enough to know a lot of add-ons or where the money will go. will that find its way over the finish line at some point? >> it might. my guess is any money congress will appropriate will go toward

resupplying antiaircraft weapons. might go toward putting more troops in nato countries, there's a psychological effect for the ukrainian people seeing america pouring 9 and 10 figure numbers into their country. these are people who are not sure what part of the world has their back and looking to each other for heroism. these kinds of stories need heroes from outside. of america puts money in play, looks like a lot of money, a book up the ukrainian people. kevin: appreciate your time. anita: severe weather in the midwest. at least six people including

two children under the age of 5 after a tornado swept through central iowa but four were injured. the powerful wind, power lines in the area. local emergency official says 2 dozen homes were badly damaged calling it the worst anyone has seen. kevin: incredible pictures from the archive state. a ukrainian violin student lives in spirit, with his people. he joins us live next.

kevin: more ukraine coverage. 1.4 million ukrainians have fled the country to escape the russian invasion. countries like romania, hungary and poland accepting hundreds of thousands of refugees has thousands more leave by the day. lauren blanchard is standing by. >> reporter: the majority of these refugees are coming here on the side of the customers

building is this train station, these people are waiting for a train out. these are the folks getting out of poland to help people and that help can be seen here. this is a mountain of donations that has appeared. we've seen folks going through trying to pick up pieces, pieces they may need and i will take you around the back of the building to show you when these folks get off the train and poland. >> as you show us, watching how large this, tell us what you have in front of you. >> reporter: what we are seeing, this is the train people are getting off was ukrainians coming off the train

greeted by volunteers, clothing in some cases. you see them getting a sandwich. as they are coming off the train this is the first stop in poland. as they continue down this track they are going to head in this direction greeted by mortar medical professionals and go through customs. they are ending up in poland, trying to figure out where they are going next. a lot of these folks were not able to grab much. it is overwhelming to see these folks get off this train, many have tears in their eyes.

they are greeted with clothes or food and in many cases they have traveled the day or more to get here. this is their first thought of safety. kevin: powerful images and what you saw, not just where people are collecting or trying to understand where they are, this sudden upheaval of their lifestyle and the few belongings they could take with them. they are being greeted with warmth and dignity and respect by the polish people. how are the polls managing with this massive influx of humanitarian need for people being shoved from their homeland. >> reporter: it is really amazing to see how the polish

people have welcomed these refugees, bringing people trunk fulls of things, anything from their homes, things like baby strollers, brand-new items, anything to welcome these folks, doesn't seem any anger at the situation. a lot of folks we saw getting on the train going to another country, you see them coming off the trains, these are the refugees, they let them off in waves. then let them through. the medical staff, handed cups of soup and cups of tea,

sandwiches, kids, toys, really shining a light on the humanity, welcoming them with open arms and open doors and open homes. kevin: i have always found poland a beautiful country, a welcoming country. what you just described is a sober reflection of familiar history the polls have suffered. we appreciate your time and talk to you again soon. anita: the worst of times bringing out the best in people. a violent student from ukraine had to leave the us when his visa expired. ♪♪ >> reporter: the video is meant

to bolster the strong spirit ukrainians have in trying to fend off the russian invasion which he hopes to return to the us to continue his graduate studies. thank you so much for joining us. we enjoyed the clip of your video. sounds like you've been through quite an ordeal. he were in the united states studying when you're visa expired and you had to return home to ukraine which went you arrive in ukraine? >> i arrived february 12th. >> reporter: as things were getting intense and russia was ramping up to launch the invasion what happened next? >> i didn't spend much time in kyiv.

i planned a concert in my hometown. share everything i learned in rochester, new york, share my experience of entertaining people the way americans do it. anita: looks like a very lively performance of the violin. usually is more quiet and somber but yours looks more jazzy. you and your brother both play the violin. the music video seems very important to the people of your country. tell us more about where the video is being played and what is the reaction? >> we made a couple videos together and played these important songs, the folksongs like this one.

somber songs to mourn the losses and this one was recorded in the center of kyiv. this is a song one of the bands in ukraine on the singing contest, eurovision, it is pretty cool because the ukrainian flag, yellow and blue. anita: a beautiful night sky behind you. you mentioned you were studying in russia and new york. when will you be able to return? when will your visa be reinstated? >> i had to leave. i stayed until the last day possible in the us. i traveled all around to miami,

and i am hoping i can be there to pursue my masters degree in august. anita: i enjoyed that clip of your music. we hope to see you back in the us. kevin: still to come as we continue our coverage, we go live to ukraine and check in with chief correspondent jonathan hunt to bring you the latest around this war-torn country. special coverage continues.

to take more dramatic steps to stop russia as flattery putin's assault on ukraine unleashes more chaos. jonathan hunt with the latest from ukraine. >> reporter: we have significant breaking news, a new cease-fire is due to go into effect locally between russian and ukrainian forces in the area in and around the southern city of mariopol. they are trapped by an ongoing bombardment over the last few days. there was a cease-fire put in place yesterday in mariopol but it fell apart as soon as ukrainian civilians started going along with the metaphorical humanitarian core door, the russians opened fire according to ukrainians as

people had back to what is left of their homes when they have little water or food and no power whatsoever but we are now hearing this new cease-fire will go into effect in 30 minutes time. we are told by mariopol it will last nine hours giving hope those people will have time to get out of mariopol and head towards a semblance of safety. this, a very significant development if you look at pictures from poland where a lot of refugees offended up, not relevant to what we are talking about right now. this is mariopol, in the south of ukraine that has been so badly hit by the russian bombardment. that is significant news, today this cease-fire can hold, due to come into effect in 20

minutes time, top of the hour and last for 9 hours. that will be great news for those people if they can get out. they hope they can get 200,000 estimated civilians sheltering in mariopol to safety. we will see if the cease-fire holds. kevin: i have been reading there are shortages of electricity and food and available water. this is a real disaster. we were hoping it would hold. it did not. thank you so much. anita: people from around the world burning with the desire to help and dropping everything to come to the rescue of the 1.4 million americans who fled

their homeland. one team from the jersey shore is on the ground in poland. >> reporter: armed with a plane ticket to poland and boxes of emergency items with things like cell phone chargers the mayor of the jersey shore town is on a mission to help hundreds of thousands of ukrainian refugees seeking safety. having arrived at the airport in poland just hours before, they hit the ground running. mayor paul kinitro being funded by the jersey shore community. >> ukraine is a few meters in that direction. >> reporter: it is more than a military and mission. >> we have a special connection to the ukrainian people. they help our economy and forge

lifelong bonds with residents when they operate our boardwalk and attractions and everything that makes our town great. >> reporter: the crossing on the polish border is where the challenging work begins for this team from the jersey shore. >> a lot of jobs we plan on doing, different border crossing tomorrow and we will help in soup kitchen lines. >> reporter: the people in refugee centers rely on donations to plan their next step. for many that is another stop in a neighboring your country where there are additional resources. he rented 10 passenger van to move people. >> you are looking at people staging to get on buses to different parts of poland and the eu. we volunteered and donated

$1200 in car chargers, surge protectors, everybody gets telephone assets. >> reporter: there is one thing the ukrainian refugees say they need. >> you hear a sense of disbelief why vladimir putin would be here in the first place in a sovereign country. there number one need is to get him out. >> reporter: they are working to get people out of the war zone and many people are going back over the border into the embattled country to fight for ukraine. anita: a growing insurgency utilizing technology to confront vladimir putin. that and more as we continue.

anita: russian president vladimir putin says any country trying to set up a no-fly zone over ukraine will be viewed as participants in the conflict. ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy has urged nato to set up a no-fly zone but has been denied. we go to kitty logan in london with more on this. >> reporter: the us and nato firmly, spreading the conflict further. president biden has been speaking to volodymyr zelenskyy and promised more humanitarian aid, military assistance and financial support ukraine needs but all this talk of assistance by the us and other western countries anchoring russian president vladimir putin and he

is lashing out comparing this to a declaration of or against russia. these comments come as they say they will suspend operations in russia, atms in stores and many major companies but the russian military escalation continues in ukraine. the city of mariupol is under siege. we are hearing of the humanitarian court, a very difficult journey out for many civilians trapped in that city. russia added size on mariupol to create a corridor from russia to crimea but as the fighting continues millions of people are heading out of the country. the un estimates 1.9 people

trying to leave today. there was outrage around the world russia's actions we saw, a large demonstration, people calling for an end to the fighting and similar protests elsewhere but for now no end insight, many for -- fear a further russian escalation in days to come. anita: let's go back to jonathan hunt live in lviv in the northern part of the country. 20 minutes for that brand-new cease-fire to go into effect. all eyes on mariupol. >> it is due to go into effect. at the top of the hour. civilian this, 200,000

estimated civilians in mariupol using the core door to get out. we will see if it is in place. to get to something approaching safety. i want to talk about what happens if russians coming into ukraine, the kind of insurgency the russian forces might face, a lot of the insurgency is backed by technological advances, a former deputy assistant director at the atf, and what difference could technology make to an insurgency. >> it will be a massive difference. the reason is when i was in

iraq in 2003 i got to see the beginnings of what became a sophisticated campaign against us and coalition forces. these devices, penetrators, roadside bombs and armed drones, the things the ukrainians have is an advantage, they don't have to roll the insurgency out slowly. they can move directly into an advanced insurgency, the sort of thing that led forces dry and can be used against russian forces. >> reporter: we are talking about drones people might fly over an american city for fun. you can attack russian forces?

>> that sort of thing has been done in the eastern part of ukraine, not like this is new. the russians are presenting a massive target with backlog convoys and recent stories said there's been a run on these drones in ukraine to be used for surveillance but they will move quickly from surveillance to armed drones isis and al qaeda was using elsewhere. >> reporter: they are targeted by this kind of technology, to supply this as quickly as possible and in fast numbers for ukrainian civilians.

>> you will see a form of asymmetric warfare the russians have no ability to counter and this can come from inside ukraine and outside forces. these international fighters moving into ukraine would have had experience being hit, they would know how to put them to gather and help the ukrainian military cut vladimir putin's war machine to pieces. >> reporter: great to get your insights. clearly an insurgency is already happening against russian forces. it will step up over weeks and months or as long as russian forces are determined to stay here.

ukraine could become a new afghanistan, in the insurgency, the same will happen here but that is a long way down the road. we look at local issues and unfolding humanitarian catastrophe, waiting for this cease-fire to come into effect in mariupol. that might give the 200,000 estimated civilians time to get out. kevin: thank you, appreciate that. rumors of russian cyber attacks in the us, that is heating up as the kremlin weighs its options. that and more as we continue coverage, 47 after the hour.
