closer to surrounding its troops in the eastern donbass region. it could be a turning point in the drive to gain complete control of eastern ukraine. separatists say they have taken the strategic railway hub town, and forces are advancing from three directions on two other cities. ukrainian controlled cities in one region have come under relentless bombardment. correspondent: seeking safety underground. for those here, basements like this are the best hope of escaping the relentless russian shelling. they tried their best to go on as normal, but the mood is desperate. >> i must to survive. i don't think about the bombings

, explosions, so on and so forth. i just want to come have to mama survive. correspondent: ukraine says 90% of the housing and the city has been damaged by shelling. russia says its artillery has been pounding ukrainian military targets as part of its effort to take control of the last part of the region in ukrainian hands. moscow is also trying to cut off supplies to the ukrainian defenders, striking this warehouse in the east. a critical supply route to the cities under seizure begins. -- seige begins. the ukrainian military releases voters they said shows a strike on a russian position in the village just outside the city, another son from moscow bet it's

offensive is coming at a heavy cost. anchor: earlier, i spoke with an advisor at the center for naval analysis russia studies program, and asked why the ukrainian military is struggling to stop the advance of russia all of a sudden. >> thanks for having me back. it is too early to me definitive conclusions about how this particular russian advance will go. there is still opportunity for counterattacks by the ukrainian forces, russian forces. what is happening now is a reflection of the ukrainian forces have suffered a lot of losses, attrition, running out of manpower and supplies. the russian military has more of the same, more soldiers, more supplies, shorter logistics and supply lines, and so we are looking at a situation where the russian military is bringing all of its numbers and forces to

bear against an exhausted ukrainian defense, but we should not jump to conclusions whether this will be a turning point, because the ukrainian forces can still lunch counterattacks. anchor: are we seeing three months into the war what we expected to see 10 weeks ago, the military might of russia on display and also working in putin's favor? >> this waprobably eected early on. all the concentration of forces that the ukrainian borders, all of the technology, systems, russian tactics, this was probably expected early on, that the russian military would advance in an educated manner and overwhelm ukrainian defenses, so in a way, yes, this is something we probably anticipated early on, but what is happening now is a testament to the ukrainian defense and a

testament to the tenacious ukrainian defenses, counterattacks, new tactics, and their ability to grind on the russian military three months into this war. anchor: it is not all good for russia. russia is now deploying 50-year-old t-62 tanks. does that mean the russian military is running out of modern equipment? >> in a way, yes, the russian military did lose a lot of its modern front-line forces, but it appears the tanks you mention will not be put to the front. they will be in the rear action, on guard duties, monitoring the situation, so more modern takes can be rotated to the front lines. anchor: we talked a couple of weeks ago and i remember asking you to give us a prediction

about how this war would end. i you, do you think this will be a war of attrition? what do you say now? >> it always has been a war of attrition. a few weeks into this war it beca clear that the russian military would be unable to make a significant breakthrough in because of a well-organized and well-educated ukrainian military able to successfully counter the russian forces, they basically limited the russian advance to incremental advances here or there. again, three months into this, russian forces has more materiel , manpower, and systems to put in the field, but the ukrainian defense is still capable of loading the russians at bay, so the defense of these cities is an attempt to inflict probably the first major loss on the ukrainian forces, but that is not a foregone conclusion as well.

it appears this style of war could continue for quite a while with russian military slicing off little bits of ukrainian territory, then closing those forces off with the sheer numbers and overwhelming manpower. anchor: it is appreciated for your time and insight to understand how this conflict is moving. thank you. >> thank you. anchor: two captured russian soldiers have pleaded guilty in ukraine second war crimes trial, charged with shelling civilian infrastructure in eastern ukraine, facing 12 years in prison. it is one of thousands of cases being examined by ukrainian and international authorities. the international criminal court is gathering evidence of alleged russian war crimes over the last months. >> this is the blood here. correspondent: he is in the ukrainian town of board-check --

town, one of hundreds of investigators documented potential war crimes committed by russian troops. they are collecting evidence for the international criminal court. germany is one of the countries funding their mission. >> there was a body here. i am trying to look for physical evidence as to how she was killed or where she was killed. correspondent: more than 60 nations have already called on the international criminal court to investigate allegations of war crimes in ukraine. the icc is the only permanent international court with the authority to prosecute such crimes. more than one hundred 20 countries recognize its jurisdiction. russia is not one of those. ukraine is. here in the hague, judges and prosecutors had the court.

multiple mass grades have been discovered using satellite imagery and other places the russian army has withdrawn or retreated from. the ukrainian president accuses russia of trying to eliminate his country. >> we see that russia is trying to destroy the ukrainian state in the ukrainian people. this is a real genocide. correspondent: the images are shocking. to date investigators say they have not found evidence of systematic and coordinated killings. charges of war crimes could also bring others to account.

they could potentially already issue international arrest warrants. it would need documentation of specific crimes and evidence as to who gave the orders. >> it is a tool that could be used to exert pressure on vladimir putin. correspondent: such arrest warrants would isolate president putin, but international law makes no provisions for trials in absentia. he would have to be physically present. experts say that outcome is questionable, but not impossible. in the meantime, hundreds of investigators remain on the ground. they are collecting all the evidence they can from the war-torn streets of ukraine. anchor: russia's invasion of

ukraine has changed the way many germans view their military and the country security. germany was on the front lines between east and west and hosted a much larger army. national service was compulsory for all men, but that was abolished more than 10 years ago. now some people believe the country could be under threat again and the training as reservists. correspondent: marching in step two the shooting range, but it is all new. he is training to become a reservist here in northern germany. >> it is quite exciting to hold a weapon. i had never shot a rifle before, so i was quite nervous however

we were well prepared and we did quite a few dry run so that we would be ready. and they are not just trained to shoot, but also given medical training and taught military law. among the 61 recruits, public service employees engineers, and electricians. the average age is 30 seven. theyre deemed highly motivated and will later be used in homeland security. these recruits are welcome reinforcements. after decades of specializinin missns abroad, the german armed forces are turning their focus on national and collective defense again. >> we need to master the use of combined arms again. we need to handle germany's responsibility as a hub. if reinforcements onehalf of the alliance a sent to germany to be deployed to another country, then it has toarry out those services as part of the s so-called host nation

support. those are duties we have not be attending too closely. however, they are gaining in importance again, and because o that forces have to be trained just like these reservists here today. >> for a long time, germans were not too interested in their military and many vied skeptically. russia's invasion of ukraine has change that increased its importance, as well as the motivation of these future reservists. >> at first, i was scared. do i still really want to do this? i am increasingly convinced our freedom and democracy are extremely deserving of protection and i can do my part here. correspondent: they will do 18 days training in total, squeezing it in around their normal jobs, but once it is over, they will be ready to defend their country if it comes to the worst. anchor: they are words that can

only sting. police in texas admitted they made a mistake in the response, waiting instead of moving in against the gunman. the tragedy once again has ignited the age-old debate in america over gun control. correspondent: the nra weapons lobbies annual meeting, a form for expressions of regret and complaints that democrats are using the shooting to push stricter gun control laws, that is what these people want to avoid. >> it takes a good guy with a gun to stop a bad guy with a gun. >> guns don't kill people. people kill people. >> grieving families of the murdered children are angry. parents had gathered outside the school while the shooter was inside. 40 police officers stood there and did nothing. parents begged them to save their children, but they were pushed back instead. >> every moment he kill

somebody. they're like, nobody wants to get her. they don't want to get hurt. the children did not have to die. correspondent: after 12 minutes, the first officers reached the scene, but fled from the perpetrator shots. even reinforcements were eventually prevented from entering the school. only after 90 minutes did the police finally take action. >> the hindsight now, of course it was the wrong decision, very wrong decision. there is no excuse for that. >> the unseen commander considered that there was a barricaded subject and there was time and there was no more risk. correspondent: the police still have many questions to answer. anchor: i spoke with our correspondent and asked what the people thought when they heard that police officers thought they made a mistake by not entering the school building immediately. >> there are a lot of people who

do not have the kindest words for what they listen to and what they learned today from police, and of course we cannot repeat them, but i can tell you that there is outrage on the side of the public in uvalde. just imagine the families. they heard this for the first time too, so you lost your child , and three days in after all this happened, you are still green stricken and the world has ended for you. you get a press conference from the police, which we had asked for for days, which is another story, trying to get information , we know they were not forthcoming with information because they had a problem on their hands. the people in uvalde and they families are devastated.

why would they not? that was a major blunder. again, for 45 minutes, 19 officers in the hallway were told by their commanding officer do not do anything because it is a barricade situation. people do not even understand why, how this thinking or this assessment could have been done, so major mistake, and outrage all along. anchor: that was our correspondent reporting from texas. g-7 climate change talks ended with a commitment by seven leading industrial nations to end the use of fossil fuels to generate electricity by 2035. the group also pledging to increase their climate change ambitions into double financial aid for poor countries by 2025. correspondent: nor more coal energy by 2025, that is with the g7 nations agreed on friday in a

bid to/greenhouse gas emissions. it comes as two pressing issues, tackling climate change and regaining energy independence for europe, were high on the agenda. >> the replacement of fossil energy's from russia has very much shape the political debate in the governments actions in recent days, weeks, and months, but we have to be clear that the challenge of our political generation, mainly to curb global warming, will not go away if we focus only on the present. this conference has made that very, very clear. correspondent: for the first time, the g7 recognized the need to provide developing countries with additional financial aid to cope with losses and damage was by global warming. in light of the war in ukraine, new bilateral partnerships have also been discussed. >> the dependence on russian oil and gas europe is feeling is an

energy security issue in the climate issue as we have to move away from the combustion of agile carbon resources, so the way for europe to enhance its domestic energy security is to produce much more of its energy resources domestically through the deployment of renewables, and to look to source clean sources of energy like hydrogen from stable, democratic countries like canada. correspondent: the agreements which will be put to leaders at the g7 summit next month were largely welcomed by climate campaigners. anchor: our correspondent is covering that meeting and told me about the impact of the war in ukraine on the meeting. correspondent: it was definitely one of the top topics discussed here at the summit, and a lot of the ministers who spoke at press conferences and at events made clear that russia's invasion of you and and it's on to fences

--that ukraine and its consequences have put the focus on energy, sourcing, and climate change, and has made it more relevant for countries within the g7, germany or italy, to be quickly independent from russian fossil fuels. the challenge is to make sure this move away from russian energy sources does not bring g7 countries to rely more heavily on fossil fuels from other countries and other sources in the long-term. this move away from these russian fossil fuels actually leads to a transformation towards a bigger use of renewable energy. anchor: that was our political correspondent reporting from the g7 meeting in berlin. as the war in ukraine grinds into its fourth month, one of russia's biggest allies remains steadfastly at its side. china has given tacit approval to russia's war, and that shows no sign of changing.

that is the message the chinese people are getting home via state media. in ukraine, it is another matter, where we caught up with a chinese video blogger who has a different view. correspondent: you might think he is a trouble blogger or foodie. he is out filming daily life in odessa, but odessa is a city at war and he is from china. he is telling his compatriots about life in wartime. >> look, this fish is still alive. what does this tell us? food logistics are working, and retail is fully operational. it shows us that the city of odessa is functioning. chinese television says things are terrible here, but we are eating fresh fish. correspondent: he started posting videos shortly after the war began. it ishe 15th of march, 5:00

and the morning, the sirens are on again, and this is what every night is like. now it is nine :00 a.m. local time. >> i have not slept well. the sirens do not let you sleep at night. hey, relax, i am alive. he challenges chinese state media, who often echo the state propaganda. >> they call this a nazi symbol. i am seeing friendly people. correspondent: he says he was never into politics, but since the war began, he has dug deep into questions of freedom, war, diplomacy, and peace. his videos are censored in china. >> i am what they call digitally

disappeared, whatever i post, even if i say hello it is 12:00 and the weather is nice, it will be deleted. i will have a sip of tea and then we go on. correspondent: his pro-ukrainian stands has earned him death threats from chinese nationals, but he finds comfort in his new home. >> this is the odessa of my heart. this is what the city looks like in daytime. hello. today is saturday. the people behind me are queuing up for the zoo. correspondent: he moved to edessa only a few months before war started. -- odessa only a few months before war started. he said he fell in love with its charms. now he is out and about almost

daily, documenting life in the city. the war has not dampened his love for it. >> war is cruel. war must not happen. but the people here are still living a life and dignity and have not been scared off and have not run a way. that is what i am seeing and that is what i want to show. the opposition he faces from china does not discourage him. he is prepared to go it all alone. anchor: london is in the grip of a fever tonight. the swedish pop supergroup abba reunited at the start of their long-awaited new show. they were there in person, but looking older than in their heyday, but on the stage thanks to some technical antiaging, they looked like their younger selves all over again. correspondent: it was a triumphant return to the red carpet for the swedish

superstars. some 40 years on from the last performance, the band was excited to be back. >> it is so nice to see all of the faces and all the expectations and everything. it goes right into your heart. i am so happy to be here. correspondent: fans were ready to take a chance on the group's new virtual performance. ♪ inside, they were taken back in time as holograms of the band from the 19 70's heyday strutted their stuff. ♪ brought to life by digital motion capture technology at the specially built arena. the real voices accompanied by live musicians. fans of the foursome seemed blown away. >> that was fantastic. i saw them in 19 70 nine.

it took me back there. everything about it was a treat for your ears, eyes, feet. it was nonstop entertainment. i can't believe it. what i have seen. >> fantastic. if i died tonight, i would die that way. correspondent: they seem ready to carry on even when they're gone. anchor: stick around. we will be right back. i will take you through "the day." ♪

trafficking of antiquities. anchor: as the united states mourns its second deadliest school shooting the nation's most powerful gun lobby, the national rifle association, holding their national convention in texas. anti-gun protesters have gathered outside the convention center with former president donald trump is among the attendees. >> i think they are trying to use this awful thing to make a political point and i am incensed by it. i think these poor parents have enough to deal with and the fact that you are making it a big

thing. i think it is horrible. >> the nra had nothing to do with that. the fact that they were shot was terrible, but guns do not shoot themselves. anchor: for more on this, our guest tonight does eric rubin, a think you for joining us. i want to start by a statistic. there have been 212 mass shootings in the u.s. this year and no meaningful gun reform in sight. have americans resigned themselves to living with this kind of violence? >> in fact, there is a super majority of americans who do want to see some gun control, upwards towards 90% want to expand background checks before

somebody can purchase a firearm. there is support for red flag laws that can reap -- remove firearms from somebody who is showing a threat to themselves or others. there was support for gun regulation but one of the things we witness is that this paralysis at the political level. politicians are at a stalemate and republicans, especially the national political level, tend to have a knee-jerk reaction against any laws that might restrict the ability to get guns. anchor: why is the reaction so visceral among a portion of the american population? >> that story goes back many decades. it might go back into that 1980's when the national rifle association started to come up more frequently and the republican party in particular aligned itself quite closely to

the national rifle association. the nra will rate politicians on a scale of a-s and if a politician does not do well on the rating it is a good chance that somebody might eat them in a primary. there is incredible power within the gun rights movement. anchor: the nra calls itself the civil rights organization. they are talking about the second amendment's which dates back over 232 years and it guarantees the right to keep and bear arms. president said this constitutional right is not absolute and it never was. what is your take? >> no constitutional right is absolute. there is no unfettered right. whether it is the right to free speech or religion or keep and bear arms. that is not how constitutional law works. since the famous 2008 decision

in the united states which found for the first time an individual right to have a handgun in the house. judges have upheld the law challenges on the basis of the second amendment. i am aware of no case where expended background checks have been struck down and a lot of other types of gun reform do not really present a second amendment issue so much as they present a political issue. anchor: there are fears that because of the conservative bent of the supreme court that gun laws and gun control could actually be loosened even further, that these second amendment rights could even be expended. what would that look like? >> there is a case right now before the supreme court and it is a challenge to all new york law that requires an applicant

to carry a handgun in public to show that they have a heightened need for self-defense. so right now the supreme court is considering whether or not it is unconstitutional to require an adult to show that they have good cause in order to carry lethal weapon in public. a lot a people think the court will strike that down. this case signals that this current supreme court is more gun friendly and past supreme court's. perhaps more friendly than any supreme court in this country's history. it is possible we start seeing more gun lies struck down. anchor: u.s. at the majority of americans want to make it harder to get their hands on weapons. do you think this is going to happen given that what the majority of people want seems to clash with what the politicians want.

>> only time will tell. there has not been any significant federal gun regulation since the 1990's. anything that comes out of this congress would be a big deal. one of the things they are considering is expended background checks. but if the aftermath of sandy hook is indication i will not hold my breath. after sandy hook there was a bike partisan bill -- bipartisan bill and ultimately it felt -- failed. perhaps things have changed. there is a stronger gun safety movement now then there was back then and perhaps the senators will be able to come together and agree on some modest reforms. anchor: thank you very much for speaking to us on france 24.

staying with best school shooting in uvalde, texas, more details have emerged about why officers waiting 45 minutes to confront the gunmen. our reporter has this. reporter: 19 officers waited outside the classroom for 45 minutes were salvador ramos going down as many children as there were officers waiting outside. they believed he was barricaded alone in the classroom despite sporadic shooting and despite several calls made to 911. >> from the benefit of hindsight, of course there was -- it was not the right decision, it was the wrong

decision. there is no excuse for that. when there was an active shooter, the rules change. we do not have time. reporter: his statements did little to quell the questions from journalists as police face scrutiny about how much time elapsed. at least two of the children who called 911 survived, but it is not clear how many children if any died as the police officers stood outside. >> how many students died? >> we are looking at that right now. reporter: a few hundred kilometers away in houston protesters slept outside a national rifle association convention. which this year is haunted by the specter of the massacre. let's turn out to ukraine and

russian forces in the eastern donbas region have captured a town. two thirds of the city's outskirts now under moscow's control. ukrainian forces fall back in the face of moscow's biggest advance in weeks, the u.s. has promised to send them long-range systems. the odds are stacked against them. reporter: president zelenskyy has said in parts of the donbas, ukrainian forces are outnumbered and outgunned. they are defending whilst the others are attacking. in some parts of the donbas, ukrainian forces are in serious difficulty and ukraine confirmed a has lost control of a town of about 20,000 people to the west.

that is not long after ukraine confirmed having pulled its forces out of another strategic location. the russian forces are advancing at the moment in donbas. perhaps one could say that the upper hand. they scaled back their ambitions quite significantly from what they said they would do at the beginning of april. so far, they have not made that many inroads so i remind you that they control the bottom third and they have done since 2014. they have not made that many new territorial gains but they are beginning to. anchor: senegal is observed in three days of national mourning after the deaths of three -- 11 babies in a fire in the neonatal ward in the hospital. the fire was caused by a short

fleeting. -- at every age because life is fleeting. >> l'oreal paris has an award for female directors. we have seen some improvements in the industry. the last two oscars for director were women. >> i have worked with a lot of female directors and i know how hard it was for them to get where they were. and i do think we are obviously making some changes that are really necessary, but it is all in the same problem of having women repressed, repressing women. it has been something that has been part of our culture for such a long time, it is hard to

get out of it. but at least we are recognizing the problem and making some changes and supporting them. women are making this happen and there are a lot of men that are doing it as well. >> your daughter this in one of the best films in competition. have you seen it? >> i did, i went to the premiere. it has been such an honor. she is so brave. i cannot be prouder. >> and you start together in the tv series made. >> it was a dream experience.
