our multi plan. but he did in people that means that the decisions that have been taken, williams acute goals, sheila said with security of our homeland guaranteed and ensured i hope that you will support they give them this decision. we love our homeland and that means that we are powerful now, for a quick recap of our breaking news, vladimir putin has announced a special miniature operation in dom bus during an address to the nation, which we just heard. the president said that there would be no occupation of ukrainian territory, and he also called on the ukrainian troops to lay down their arms and to go home. the goal, he said, was to bring justice to those who committed numerous crimes against civilians, including russian citizens. this comes out of the people's republic of dumbass,
10:44 pm
turns rushes military for assistance, reportedly in the dumbass of police and in ukraine artillery explosions can be heard. now the kremlin confirmed that he did receive a request from the heads of the new guns underneath republics, for quote, helping with curbing aggression form ukraine. ukraine has reacted by branding. it's an escalation and setting up an emergency meeting with the security council, which we heard just a moment ago as well. that meets in is still ongoing as far as we understand. and we will keep you up to date on any developments as and when we get them. ah, the assistance was asked for on the basis of treaties they signed with moscow early this week and comes out to reports of an escalation in the region. this video
10:45 pm
followed ganske was shared exclusively without c and appears to show the aftermath of a bombardment. local officials say 2 civilians were killed when a car was hit by an anti tank missile. and this exclusive video shows artillery fire hitting done yeske. local authorities say 3 civilians have been killed by the ukrainian military in the last 24 hours. ortiz murat gasdio reports. this is the aftermath of an apparent car bombing that recently happened in le ganske city. devastated during the war 7 years ago. violence has come anew to the separatist republic to the city, and the outskirts is another village that was hit over the course of this violent night, say $122.00 millimeter mortar round here, the bits of shrapnel that caused all this damage. cutting down power lines as well
10:46 pm
as blowing out windows in nearby house. as this happened again in the very early hours of the morning in these village, ironically named mary mountain locals are terrified when this ukrainian shell landed in the middle of their village. many were hiding in the basements, which may have saved their lives. no people were heard. but the family dog wasn't so lucky. you can see 2 wounds in its head, a piece of shrapnel, apparently that went into either. it's on the back of the head and came out of the other side, given conditions. here are the violence and the lack of money from people here. the villages it is unlikely that this dog is going to get any help. this is the harsh reality of war. at cheapens the value of life and meet fear and terror.
10:47 pm
people turn in woods, survival rather than charity or mercy becomes the priority. now they have been usually, i think glen killed you. they have no decency why till people are dying on the other side. and we feel bad for them. my grand daughter and son are there and were being attacked hair. they behave like animals. it might make more sense if there was a military base hair, some so just because nobody but pensioners senior him. okay, which is like, why do you think doing this hatred, this level of violence stretches for hundreds of kilometers. the entirety of the front line is a fire near by. 2 civilians were reportedly killed when a guided missile fired from the ukrainian side, struck their vehicle, hours apart. an explosive device apparently went off at the lou ganske, tram depot with such force that thousands awoke in the middle of the night. people
10:48 pm
are exhausted physically and psychologically wasted by 8 years of war. and so it goes on the violence and shelling and bombardment, adults at times, only to start up again with renewed ferocity. and there is no end in sight. diplomacy so far has failed. every one. now to get reaction on this breaking news, her naughty international, we can cross live now to political analyst alessandra bruno alice, under us under welcome to the program though, obviously huge developments in these tensions with ukraine. do you think persons decision to launch this milch operation? was inevitable, i think the decision became inevitable, and i think he was pushed into it the west and president biden, in particular, could have done many things to prevent it. starting with, of course,
10:49 pm
persuading president allowed to marry lensky in ukraine to abide by the men's agreements, which everyone seems to have remembered. only after. the, the recognition of the box republics as independent came a bit, i believe, was 48 hours ago. so and of course this has been going on for a long time. the agreements were made between 20142015. so we've had 7 years to implement them. instead we've had continuous military. busy operations by militia, some apparently neo nazi malicious. you create an army. so and i believe 14000 people have died in that conflict since 2014 alone. so
10:50 pm
we've had this situation does not come out of the blue, so to speak. this has been a bit a continuously building problem, and it would have to be resolved one way or another. and i mean the, the operation itself to me reminds me of the affair in 2008. when at that time, georgia decided to attack the brake who republic the russian speaking. oh said from george. and there was a brief military opera, operational from russia to restore. busy order and in the after that we've seen of certainly stable situation in georgia and hopefully the best outcome now would be
10:51 pm
for deterrence to songs from russia to ukraine know more attacks into the dumbass or at least that we can hope for. and then a civilization. i don't think the rhetoric from the west, particularly again from washington that put in, wants to install a puppet regime and key of change the government in a way that is not in the cards. and frankly, i don't see. but all the talk of russia are wanting to become an empire again, inexpensive, too. i think the last thing the russian needs is more territory. it has plenty of territory, but the problem is it's security arrangement. and the fact that after $992.00 natal is still around while the worst. so packed is not. and then of course
10:52 pm
we have the termination of various miss. i'll control treaties that president trump before he left office. so they need to be renegotiated as well. there are a number of security issues that need to be discussed and that could have been discussed to delay or to avoid this what we, what is happening now. now we've already seen that the west has imposed sanctions on a number of quite a few russian individuals and entities. what do you reckon? the reaction will be from the west in lights of this latest developments? well the, the, the, the sanctions apparently were considered quite light. i believe even president, trump can criticize my them for being easy. so i think they will inevitably raise the number of sanctions,
10:53 pm
perhaps sanctioning president could in himself. but i think all of this has already been taking into consideration in moscow and the operation will not have begun without it. there won't be any surprises. i think all diplomatic relations. busy are probably break, i'm sure bastards will be recalled various you and there may be just a few point countries left with which to negotiate something i suspect, perhaps president micron and shows of germany. and maybe even the, the time prime minister may, may continue to hold talks and may be given the mandate. but other countries will probably the, the usual suspects. the 5 eyes is the u. k. street in the younger certain countries essentially, which are the ones that have been putting the greatest pressure on russia and for
10:54 pm
the past 25 years. so i think that will be the rhetoric and the diplomatic diplomatic or unemployed magic relations will, will continue to intensify on that side. the problem is they already did so much, they shut down this pipeline and leave the notes stream to they put sanctions on various individuals. they. they refuse to discuss the situation from the russian perspective. so in the end, they gave, put in little choice, cut off any possibility for a reasonable dialogue. so hopefully this operation will be short and some reason will be will be left in france in some parts of europe. i suspect that of president micron of france, who is facing reelection in a few months,
10:55 pm
could use this a diplomatic breakthrough with russia as part of his campaign. so for whatever selfish reasons, something good couldn't come out of it, but we'll see an certainly an intensification of diplomatic restrictions. i don't think the west will get involved totally yet. or at least not directly know they've already got enough. so you, so you use us on the diplomatic side of things and obviously we've seen the west sending 100 millions of dollars with lethal 80 ukraine. we don't anticipate more of that being sent in lights again of this development. oh, i anticipate more aid. i don't anticipate any western direct intervention or at least direct. certainly they will use proxies and they will help the militias. and because that is their specialty, syria,
10:56 pm
libya and iraq, afghanistan, this is the notice operandi in it has been for so long. and of course, nobody can say a thing when the west or nato invades other countries. the hypocrisy of the situation is, is palpable. you know, it's so thick, but it's in and the you, when is also lopsided, even though at the un security council, we have all power all the major powers represented. so it needs to be seen how i'm very interested to see how china react to this. so far it's been neutral, although it dance, it has criticized the west for failing to honor the means agreements which as that which as i think it should be stressed, we're only remembered by the west in the past. 48 hours. yes,
10:57 pm
the chinese reaction will be very interesting to hear the reaction from china or alice under thank you very much for your insights and thank you l. a pin you said was political analysts, alessandra bruno, thank you. thank you. and now for a quick recap of our breaking news here in russia, vladimir putin has announced a military operation in dom bus during an address to the nation, which we heard around about 30 minutes ago. the president said that there would be no occupation of ukrainian territory, and he also called for ukrainian troops to put down their arms. he says, russia's goal is to bring justice just to justice, those who committed numerous crimes against civilians, including russian citizens. and it comes after the people's republic of don bass turn to russia for military assistance. meanwhile, reports just in artillery can be heard in the dom bus republics and in ukraine, local say, the sounds of explosions in the area of boris awful. airport near care have been
10:58 pm
noticed as well. now for more on this, we can cross alive now to our senior correspondence, rog, gasdio mirage. what can you tell us about what's happening on the ground? but literally just a minute ago, there were several loud explosions here in the city of la guns. because as we looked out on to the city, an entire neighbourhood, an entire area last pallet, all the lights went out. presumably, a sub station or power lines were heat in the slightest shilling before which we heard a tremendous artillery exchange for further towards the front lines which are, which are just mere kilobytes, is north of a north of us, which is where ukrainian troops, i met trenches and just hundreds of meters from them. ah, local militias and local fighters. about 5 o'clock,
10:59 pm
53540 am here. that is when we started to hear this, this building a building and building artillery exchanged between the 2 sides, most of the explosions we had up until now had come from from the outskirts. but these several loud explosions are coming from the, from the north eastern part of the city. again, we saw the lights go out an entire area simultaneously where we are also hearing reports of fighting, bitten, vicious, fighting, further along the front lines here in logan screech. and people are, of course, judging by by lights in windows. at 6 a. m. p. people were book and by this we were in fact awoken by the sound of explosions and artillery. often the distance are rumble, that that just doesn't, doesn't stop. it was a, it eats odyssey, nothing like we had heard yesterday or the day before. again, people ah,
11:00 pm
ah, people are on to out in the streets. people are sitting inside waiting this out, many of them. well, remember the war in 2015 to 1014. when the best thing you could do was find the bomb shelter and stay there. plus there's also a curfew which is about to be lifted at 7 am. and so so said the things are developing very, very rapidly here. thank you very much for that report from the ground. murat, gosti of archie, senior correspondent. i'm sure be quin by to you throughout the day as the situation unfolds. thank you and now again, for a recap of the latest breaking news here in russia, but in person has announced a military operation in dumbass during an address to the nation just moments ago. the press.
