assigned for russian troops for the day have been successfully completed. that's according to the russian defense ministry that comes off the travelling, assaulted a military operation, which it says is aimed at defending the dumbass from you. cling and aggression. russian armed forces a destroyed 83 ukrainian. when it re target, the defense ministry added that no civilian areas were targeted. the strikes were aimed at military infrastructure and also the safe exit roofs for cleaning soldiers have been arranged. ortiz correspondent, one of the reports from the guns for public. this unrecognizable from what it was this morning or even yesterday or the day before with, with the constant shelling for hours now that i haven't been there any exclusions in the gods sca oh, in the suburbs, in the outskirts of the city as we had seen in previous days with, with constant shelling between the 2 sides. so shelling from the ukrainian side and

from the self proclaimed all as the now recognised republic of you guns. nevertheless, the operation, the offensive that they have launched this morning following, following a very sustained, very loud and very sustained artillery shelly campaign this morning. as the, the operation they say is progressing according to plan. they say they have penetrated 3 kilometers into, into ukrainian lines more i believe on the near side, just south of us. nevertheless, the frontline stretches for, for hundreds of kilometers and we haven't been able to to get close to the front lines. we have been turned back because of the dangerous situation that as we were told, nevertheless, the cross you crave as a whole list has been a chaotic day. a complete surprise for every one we saw russian, the units, russian forces launch calla book cruise missiles at various military installations

. the for the ministry of defense came out and said it themselves that they lodged precision strikes against ukrainian military infrastructure against air defense sites as well. as against air fields and assets of the air force of the ukrainian air force, there was even a port that was struck multiple arms, depos fuel, depos. we sure the fires characteristic fuzz raging throughout the day. nevertheless, the russian, the russian defense minister came out and said that any ukrainian that wants to surrender can surrender. he will be treated with respect. he ordered russian troops to treat any ukrainian a regular with respect the, the brunt of the resistance that we're hearing about a is coming from nationalist battalions neo nazi elements. for example, such as as off battalion battalion, which for years as used a nazi symbols on its uniform and in its brochures and the likes, the organization,

for example, his band band in russia and many of its members are of wanted by courts. nevertheless, the, the situation in ukraine is developing very rapidly, very quickly. the russian of the russian ministry of defense or it is also said that they have destroyed about a dozen f fields or struck a dozen or so. and fields are more than 70 various military infrastructure sites around ukraine, which presumably includes those. i am a amunition depots that, that i talked about. and the other side such as a we've, we've seen footage unconfirmed as of yet. and for example, ukrainian military vehicles destroyed a convoys entire convoys of tanks batter than burning across ukraine. it remains very difficult to, to verify various footage and information coming out. there's a lot of

a lot of fake information recycled footage from previous was the reserve being leveled here and pushed on social media. nevertheless, the picture will become clear up in days to come the, the, the hot spot now is keith, obviously, where russian paratroopers or russian special forces have been cited at a number of airport, including one just 25 kilometers away from 25 kilometers away from key f authorities in key of have said that the russians are, the vladimir putin isn't going to go off to civilian infrastructure, who civilian targets. he wants public support, and that would destroy his public support. they also said that they want, that they're going to try to de night at a bes russian troops out of the airport. i keep of, i believe airport near keith, which is where they are now stationed. and that have been reports that more russian

units, a boat cargo planes. i could perhaps be headed there again. oh, president. fujen is also cooling for you cleaning soldiers to be treated with dignity or to obtain this exclusive video from a russian war reporter in a don bus. he claims it shows ukrainian troops surrendering to don't ask republic forces or the reporter says there are sold. you see of voluntarily laid down their weapons authorities and been asked to have shad pictures of one of the soldiers whose apparently wounded and has been provided with medical treatment. a russian tanks have apparently been spotted in ukraine. sumi region, near the russian border resident sent us this unverified video of military vehicles that shall moist and cust together. oh no, he lives with

russia, but it was tuned. i'm still good uncle who is shown good. ah, well we heard from people living in ukraine's got us on region, nick fi, mia. one of them expressed surprise that the crony, an army, is nowhere to be seen. a deal with

a the store. and i thought well, this video was filmed by a true on the front line in an escrow public where as when they hadn't suddenly fleas. these incoming shells. russia defense ministry says ukraine force is a following a cities in the dawn bus though, ukraine says russia has carried out more than 200 attacks since the thought of the day in the region. a series of powerful explosions were reported across ukraine. this morning. loud blast rocked several cities off the rush, launched a military operation. it's been reported the explosions were caused by mythos

strikes from russia's aerospace forces. we've just received these images coming from multiple thick smoke can be seen building across the sky around these radar systems. you can see damage ukrainian radar system throughout the day. powerful explosions have been reported throughout the country who will take a closer look at the situation on the ground on this map. you can see here the next and look at the people's republic. so just there in blue and red to the 2 regions without starting to penance from kiev, shortly after the 2014 modern revolution. and have they claim been repeatedly shells ever since. and that's led to numerous civilian casualties. now both republic site, they will liberate their territories, still on the key of control. and up to now they've held only about half of that area or president food and says russia recognizes these 2 states as defined by this map. now the russian president announced the decision and nationally televised

speech saying there's no intention to occupy the ukraine. such a thank you said get rich with according to the article, 51 in the 7th chapter of the un charter with the sanction of the federation council . and according to the friendship and mutual help treaties with the nets and luc ganske republics, i have decided to conduct a special military operation. the goal is to protect the people who for 8 years of a bullying and genocide from the key of regime. and for this, we aim for the, the militarization and the next, if a cation of ukraine will bring to the court. those who committed multiple sanguinary crimes against civilians, including russian citizens. we do not plan to occupy ukrainian territories. ukraine has several diplomatic relations with russia over what it calls a full scale invasion ukraine's president let me lensky claims his country did not

choose a path of war, but offered ways to restore peace. he made some further accusations against russian forces in its wheat the russian occupation forces are trying to see that your noble nuclear power plant, or defenders are giving their lives so that the tragedy of 1986 will not be repeated. reported this to the swedish prime minister. this is a declaration of war against the whole of europe. a president, he's vowing to fight russia, though not only crony politicians share that you. the 7 members of parliament have called for diplomatic solution and direct negotiations with moscow. president zelinski, we urge you to immediately start talks with russia's president putin on ways to end the bloody confrontation and negotiate a treaty. now on the grounds in the crater in capital care, there are scenes of panic. this recent footage

a few hours ago shows long traffic jobs falling as people try to leave the city many going to the west of the country. however, the local officials are rushing residents to stay at home and not block up the roads or some in cable taken shelter on the ground. and the metro system. authorities have been telling people to use stations as bomb shelters with a metro trains temporarily not running. now we heard from what locals, who've been witnessing some of a panic across the crate in capital, which i hear it. it's somewhere in t. f. sirens can be heard. they are bombing about really, you know, when we landed in the airports, we heard some things. it was unclear what they were. we didn't see any damage. we heard the bank while in a taxi. nobody knew what it was, but people started leaving packing their cars into a huge traffic jam. everything was crowded, but most people stayed home. my friends and i hope things will be okay. we hope

that kia will not be bombs. will still, there are huge keys perpetual stations on the roads. several hours long. it's impossible to refill. it's good that i had a full tank, but i still have to refuel some latch. we've been leaving for 4 hours already. well, in terms of international response, sir, the british prime minister is called for russia to be cut off from the swift payment system, effectively isolating the russian banking system. he's announced the barrels of sanctions over moscow's actions in you frame from almost gross law to action were times the host of going on the ground on our t. joining us from on, on a studio option. thanks for joining us. a good time with us. cutting rushman banks out of the swift system that's going to be really devastating for the russian economy. it's also going to have a, an effect on the european economy on the global economy. isn't it the financial system? is this something you think that the e u and the u. s. are willing to do?

no, and many people are saying that they, they want bitcoin lender crypto currency to take over which no doubt would if they are a attack the swift system of global payment, sab, so far, and the u. k. prime minister is still speaking of the moment, unanimous near unanimous support for boris johnson in the attempt to punish the russian people. they regret it, but it's there at the russian people are we haven't heard yet about russian retaliation for these sanctions that have just been announced. here in london, someone. some people with a grim sense of humor, amongst the carnage that we are witnessing in ukraine may say, may take ramie bruce in 8 years to retaliate. arrow floor to be a flagship carrier of fi, russia band, all airplanes banned from britain. we don't know whether that force means the british airways or obviously, these are all conglomerates now because i mean privatized here in britain, so that,

so she spanish come to be having her. we don't know whether they'll ban british airways in russia. but as was the big headline figures v t be the 2nd biggest bank in russia, full asset freeze in britain, maybe there'll be some kind of legal action by v g. b, a ban on a raising sovereign debt. i'm not sure whether any of the politicians currently in the house of commons understand that russia has reserves of $630000000000.00 estimated in foreign reserves. there is one thing about anyone who does want to gamble on the debt market. apparently, yesterday, you could, if you could lend to russia, but just that you couldn't lead to russia, but you could just wait till day to for after the issuance. this is all the bond jargon. and then borrow from a local banker that bought in the primary bond market. so there were ways round that, but that's been stopped. but of course, the debt markets for russia haven't been met. they're not that necessary to the

russian economy all be it. the j. p. morgan fun say, in emerging markets, there emerging bond market, 6 percent of it is in russian bonds. the 4 x version is 3 percent. have no word from j. b, morgan or any of these funds that they wanted to reduce that amount. because of course, the oil prices are spiking. so while the rich seem to be doing ok, and while the russia of course is doing okay, in terms of reserves from the oil, the poor bear the brunt of war as they always do through history. prior to the terrible events for people on both sides that we've seen over the last 12 hours, we did see negotiations with the moscow and nato moscow, and the u. s. european partners as well. those negotiations clearly came to nothing . the 2 sides just couldn't see each other, couldn't come to a compromise following these events, always seeing any more appetite from where the latest from western officials to sit

down at negotiating table with moscow and come to some sort of compromise which could and hostilities. well that arguably is one of the most bizarre elements of the debate currently in london's house of commons. because sir, you think maurice johnson, who sees himself as chilean churchill, of course, who famous he said george or rather than war war, he ruled out any negotiations whatsoever as regards the ukraine crisis and was applauded, seemingly, they got abroad actually in the house of commons under the rules with support and seemingly, by most of the london as a common, there is no negotiation now with russia. now what that means, no negotiation is anybody's guess because he's a nuclear armed powers, britain and russia. if britain is it war with russia, seemingly surely talks and coming to the table and some kind of discussion is the only way to sort this crisis out. but note, as far as britain is concerned,

talks are often of course we did see antony blinking, calling off the talks in geneva in the past 24 hours with his russian card about so gay lover of another example, perhaps of nato saying talks are over at now it's about pouring weapons in to ukraine, and certainly there seem to be indications that major countries are gonna for ever more weapons that make ever more profits for arms companies into ukraine to fight nuclear armed russia. and just finally, speaking of those sorts at the negotiating table, western powers of condemned russian attempts. and i'm going to quote here to rewrite europe security architecture. is there an argument perhaps that it does need to be written and how would that security architecture look from, from both sides? but of course, critics of russia would say, this is not the way you write it. i suppose most important is the or economy

superpower or fur. off of the time china, the highest a, g, d p by budge, sing, power parity, and the foreign ministry spokesperson, just in the past few hours, refused to call this an invasion or few crane. so the cards are on the table of the 10s of millions of people being wounded, or killed or displaced by wars in iraq. afghanistan, libya, all those was where nato participated in that perhaps the global security order is being rewritten and certainly countries in latin america, in africa and southeast asia, they seem to be responding to it. nato doesn't seem to have it all its own way, albeit that sacred general, antonio gutierrez, calls what russia did a violation of the united nations charter. right? that, so we have time for the reaction which and the host of art is going underground. and thanks for joining us, we'll get back to you. i no doubt in the coming days with some more analysis on the ukraine crisis center. ah, oh,

lets go live once again back here to central moscow interior. but franco, who's out of protest in the central the capital against russia's military operation, media, ah, what's the atmosphere there? like now people always to gather, to express their opposition indignation to what's happening in ukraine. one of the numbers, like, what's the mood baron central moscow? daniel high again, the well actually to be fair, the protest is pretty much over and you can see that if you look at what's going on right behind me, it is pretty much an empty pushkin's sca square, which is by the way, the traditional location for anti government protests in moscow, but more than an hour ago, there was a bit of tension right here and i did see a few dozen of detentions because the police is still here. there was more of

them a little bit earlier and according to russian law, in order for people to gather together and voice their discontent over something to hold a protest, you need to 1st apply and get permission from the city's mayor's office, and also the local police department, but because this was a spontaneous say no to war rally. so to say at this never happened and indeed a group of people were detained here i did hear as the people screaming say no to war. some of them were carrying balloons, but the rally wasn't aggressive. after all, why it happened, but perhaps some people listened to some of the russian celebrities who called on the people who are against the war to gather in cities of moscow. besides this, we heard from ukrainian officials who of a, mr. he, himself,

he said instagram and take talk isn't enough. so people should go to the streets of moscow and other russian cities to voice their discontent. some of them, perhaps, whole heard the gradient present, but you see it didn't get that much reaction from the russian population. right. they live for trend, good and central moscow. thanks for that up. they will get back to you as the annual protests do take place. again, those events are over the last 12 hours or so. now going back to the big picture, the european reaction which has been pouring in since the start of the russian operation of ukraine. paula slayer takes a closer look at what's been coming in the president of the european commission, a shallow funder lion has said that putin chose to bring wool back to europe. now this is factually incorrect. you need to a member of course, that the war has been ongoing since 2014,

so that's 8 years and the western media and we're excited to say i see other folder for not pointing that out. in fact, in the last 4 years. so if we're looking at just simply from 2008 and a load that they have been 381 civilians who have been killed in the don best region. and that is according to united nations figures. this is 5 times more measures the, the number of people who have been killed in territories that are controlled by his house. and the vast majority of these people who've been killed, in fact, over 80 percent are in these 2 republics. who have the kid independence. this is what ocean of fund ally and had to say, my children are dying of fear for their lives. we condemned this barbaric attack and the cynical arguments to justify it. it is president putin was bringing war back to europe. now we have received

a leaked text regarding this you meeting that is currently underway. and it says that you leaders will call for sanctions also to be imposed against bela worse for supporting russia in this military action united. so if you follow who is the high representative of the you full for foreign affairs, made these comments. ready then? or did you been gone to regina michel high school for a meeting all due to be and gone, she'll this evening. and they will agree and provide book together guidance to adopt the stronger package. they ha, shoot, baggage, those sanctions we have ever implemented. there's not a, you know, blush, this is not a question, no diplomatic power games. it's a matter of life and death. earlier, the g 7 made virtually, and they say that they will a port by unprovoked and unjustified attacks by russia. they said that this

military action was preceded by fabricated claims, an unfounded allegations, the g 7 saying that this is fundamentally changed. united at atlantic security situation and that they bring forward severe and co ordinated economic and financial sanction. now, reaction also coming into schools from north america, his t p to all of a, with a breakdown of that response o. canada has condemned in the strongest terms, the russian military operation into ukraine. prime minister justin trudeau said that also would be pursuing functions against moscow, as the military operation continued on the ground. in the face of these attacks on ukraine, canada will take additional action to stop russia's unwarranted aggression brushes . brazen acts will not go unpunished. sanctions are also inbound from the united states. president joe biden has said they do united the u. s. and its allies are

presenting a united front and standing up to moscow. brush alone is responsible for the death and destruction this attack will bring, and the united states and its allies and partners will respond in a united and decisive way. the world will hold russia accountable for the nato secretary general yen stalsen. burke has also added his voice to a growing chorus internationally condemning the russian military operation in ukraine. he said that there will be a response. russia has attacked ukraine. this is a brutal, actual war natalia's from them. russia's invasion of ukraine in the strongest possible terms. it is a blatant violation of international law. we can expect mold voices to join those, condemning the russian military operation in ukraine as, as more information comes out and we hear more and more statements from the west.

in particular, we'll escalade now to learning academy executive director of the wrong pool institute for peace and prosperity. daniel, thanks for joining us. that i now the u. k. there are quite adamant that was russia excluded from the global banking system. this is going to be a huge move economic nuclear botton, so it's cold. do you think firstly, that is going to happen because it will have an impact not only on russia, but also on the powers that will be putting these sanctions in place. and secondly, do you think it would be useful in resolving this crisis? well, i don't know whether it will happen or not. you know, the u. k, as you point out, is very much in favor of the german government has been reported, has rejected the idea of removing russia from the switch system. i think they probably recognize what an own goal would be if they did that. they're shooting themselves in the foot escalating at this point to as you point out, the nuclear option will do nothing really, to calm down the situation. so whether it will happen or not, we've already heard from the bonded ministration that they're not going to seek the

strongest sanctions against the russian oil industry because they're afraid that it will tank the us economy and destroy the administration, a higher inflation, etc. so there are a lot of limited limitations on the options that there was can take. clearly the thought of military action has been a shock to many. this is something nobody wanted on either side given well, we all know, although given the reality of the situation on the grounds, what do you think is the best possible outcome in ukraine that we can see to end the hostility to save human life? well, russia has been very clear, would have the goals are they offered talks was, the less gives lensky is serious about talking they, they offered to quote, the terms of surrender, which are the terms that they've been saying all along. this is nothing new. they want the demilitarization of ukraine. they want ukraine to remain as an, as a non nato member, like switzerland or austria. you know, and if this were to take place in the, let's not forget,

zalinski was elected with the support of a lot of the pro russians speakers because he ran as someone who had open dialogue with moscow. unfortunately, he fell in with a bad crowd in washington in london and turned his back on that. but the best, i think the best outcome would be a neutral ukraine. what russia wants? certainly, it's good for everyone. there's not. there's no benefit to the west to having ukraine in nato. some politicians in ukraine are calling on the government to negotiate with, with russia that says, the landscape calls on recording citizens to take up arms against russian soldiers . now, can you see that realistically, happening in return to the ghost writing table, given that diplomatic ties, of course, on l 7 or we're looking at here, this increasingly looking encircled the ukrainians for all the billions of dollars and weapons that the u. s. in the west have given them for all the training that is given them. it looks a little bit like the afghan army after the u. s. pulled out,

just disintegrated, so they're not fighting a very convincing fight. right now. i don't see very many options. nato will not come to their aid. i think they realize that the united states will not come to their military aid. it's a lot of rhetoric, it's a lot of hot air. but as far as the us getting involved the needle getting involved, it's not going to happen. negotiation seems to be the only option they have. but let's just go back in time here because we're still waiting on updated casualty figures for what's going on over the last 12 to 14 hours. the russian defense ministry saying the casualties are non existent or minimal, the crating, so claiming there are more civilian casualties. but this conflict has been raging for 8 years now when we do know thousands of died in the east of ukraine because of shelling on both sides. yet that convert it was largely ignored, largely put on the holes. why many western powers? why do you think that was.
