ukranian delegations are on the way to the ukraine. miller is border after to you have agreed to negotiate quote, without pre conditions ah, marketing like direct from our studios in moscow. this is our 2 international mom, john thomas. certainly glad to have you with us. now. lots of moving parts. we start with the un security council meeting dedicated to the situation in ukraine, which wrapped up earlier, the council called for a rare emergency special session on russia's operation, which will now be held on monday. as western allies step up a diplomatic campaign to isolate moscow. a vote on the resolution by the 15 member council was procedural. so russia could not wield it's vito. it was adopted with 11 yes votes. russia voted no while china, india and the united arab emirates,

abstained. our correspondent, kill them up and has more. the representative of the united states hurled a lot of allegations at russia, accusing russia of many things, and blaming russia for the entire conflict. hear some of what we heard from the representative of the united states before the security council. we need to take extraordinary actions to meet this threat, to our international system, and do everything we can to help ukraine and its people. just this morning, president putin put rushes nucular forces on high alert, even though he is invading a country with no nuclear weapons and is under no threat from nato, a defensive alliance that will not fight in ukraine. we urge russia to tone down is dangerous rhetoric regarding nuclear weapons. now from there are a number of countries aligned with the united states echoed these allegations from

the united states, placing the blame for the conflict solely on the shoulders of russia. now we heard china take to the floor of the un security council meeting, and when china spoke, they called for a d. as sco lation, they urged dialogue. here's what shina had to say when they spoke to the security council meeting from china, supports and encourages all diplomatic efforts conducive to a peaceful settlement of the ukraine crisis and welcomes the earliest possible direct dialogue and negotiations between russia and ukraine. at the same time, china supports eco footed dialogues between the you and russia on european security issues. the security council should give priority to regional peace and stability and the universe. so security of all countries and play a constructive role in resolving the ukraine issue. now from there we did see

russia take to the floor and debunk a large number of the allegations and heated rhetoric we heard from other countries . one theme that was very key in the remarks made by russian ambassador and ben zia was fake news than the fact that there are videos circulating throughout the internet. that report to be from ukraine, showing russian atrocities when reality, some of them and been filmed in libya. some of them have been filmed and syria. some of them have even a been filmed and come from video games in the united states. there are videos of actual atrocities committed by the ukrainian military, against the peoples of the don boss, region that are now being shown as if to place the blame on the russian military. so a lot of deception, the russian ambassador took to the floor here is some of what he said. debunking all the allegations being hurled at russia in the moment. so just to, to these now, there is a need to focus on resolving the situation which precipitated the crisis, which, which we are grappling. this crisis broke out not as

a result of the launch of the russian special military operation in ukraine, but much earlier when for 8 years you turned a blind eye to the crimes perpetrated by the ukrainian nationalists in dunbar. and again, today you did not mention at all the suffering of the residence of dunbar. that's the russian ambassador, pointing out that while there is so much concern for the people of ukraine, there seems to be no concern over the past 8 years for the people of the don boss region. the peoples republic of don adds the people's republic of lugens and what they've been enduring, the shelling the food blockades, the dan on their language, the threats against them. there doesn't seem to be any concern for the lack of democratic freedoms in ukraine itself. ukraine is being portrayed as a democracy despite the shutting down and jailing and suppression of opposition parties. so we add the russian to bastard, taking the floor. and just kind of refuting

a lot of these allegations. now that was followed by a very theatrical speech by the ukranian representative in which he spoke in both english as well as russian and which she, you know, did a lot of dramatic things and made personal appeals to members of the security council. however, the meeting then ended pretty abruptly, the russian ambassador ended the meeting and it concluded not a lot of agreement between great powers represented in the meetings, some pretty big gaps in their understanding of world events. but it seemed like one thing that did bring everyone together was a desire for the fighting to and it seems like everyone wanted the conflict to come to an end. everyone wanted their to be some kind of resolution. so that is at least one thing the countries had in common, despite the fact that they had very, very different interpretations of events. president putin has reacted to quote, aggressive language from nato members and big new pledges of weaponry to ukraine by

putting rushes, strategic forces, which includes nuclear weapons. units on high alert was very likely, as you can see, western countries and not only taking on friendly actions, tools on nation in the economic sector. i'm referring to the illegitimate sanctions that everyone is aware of. however, top officials of nato member states are also using aggressive language towards a country. that's why i'm ordering the defense minister and chief of staff to put the russian army to turn forces on special alert. rushes strategic forces include both nuclear and non nuclear units. long range bombers, submarines, ships and jets. the high alert also connects missile warning systems and defenses against attacks from space our teeth. ilia. katrinka has more details well after the russian side kept hearing pretty much every day, if not every hour as a result of what's happening in ukraine. how the nato members steps. sorry,

states are sending more and more troops and hardware to be alliance nations that share a border with russia. right? we heard the president of latimer, potent order, the russian strategic forces to be ready for any kind of scenario unfolding. indeed, russia sees this as a massive threat. however, when the white house press secretary judges, saki was asked what her reaction to the statement by bottom or was she pretty much said that it's actually a made up threats by the russian president. this is really a pattern that we've seen from president couldn't, through the course of this conflict, which is manufacturing threats that don't exist in order to justify further aggression and the global community. and the american people should look at it through that prism. nato secretary general again, stolen berg was also speaking to the western media. and he spoke about how

the countries of his lines are also very concerned about that decision made by mister food. this is dangerous rhetoric, that's the reason why we both provide support ukraine, but also why we did last week's a months. i have a significant increase the presence of nato in the eastern port lines. so the stakes are high probably had. they've never been that high end decisions are being made on both sides. we keep hearing no more and more steps being taken by the european union just a few hours ago the you top diplomat said that actually we've never heard these kind of things being said before the european you and we'll send fighter jets to ukraine and these are supposed to be fighter jets that the ukranian pilots know how to operate. so you would perhaps assume that still, you know,

some of the eastern european countries are in possession of the jets that were soviet made. so are they going to hand them over to you? great. we don't know, but it's definitely clear that now hundreds of millions worth of lethal military aid is going to ukraine. and we do remember that vladimir putin also mentioned that when he was talking about russia's response to the very latest threats from the west and from ukraine as well. the heads of the u foreign ministry agreed to provide lethal weapons to ukraine, about 450000000 euros worth. now this is according to the you foreign policy chief . he also added that you sanctions will freeze about half of russia's financial reserves, the e u. has also announced a band on our t that's our channel. and sputnik and subsidiary countries from broadcasting in the block. our editor in chief,

margarita manion has responded to news of the restrictions. but 1st, the u. foreign policy chief justice burrell, the peoples and entities that are going to be subject to restrictive measures, political figures, who whole key role on to put in the system. in russia. both the ones who disseminate propaganda, propagandist and military, we are going to band russia today. and the sputnik from broadcasting in the union because they are the champions of information. mary pollution, you are to say you are scott, i'm not really at the rest of the e u. that for years has been selling the whole world. how much the treasure and love freedom of speech and how they appreciate and loved diversity of thoughts, diversity of news and information. today in response to the actions of russia. ukraine meant to protect russian speaking citizens. there. the e u announced that we won't broadcast there anymore. for what the president's

decision to start, the operation has to do with us is unclear. it's absolutely obvious that no matter whether we continue broadcasting or not, the operation would precede us. and it's absolutely clear that it's just an excuse . they wanted to close us for a long time, but it would have looked bad in the eyes of their own citizens or audience because it's against freedom of speech anyway. and now it convenient excuse appeared and they decided to get rid of the long lasting uncomfortable issue of us. and our huge audience in this way groom will find some other way to communicate with our audience, for sure without direct broadcasting strike. but the people of the european union today and see how much does allotted talk of freedom of speech costs. yes, be more. if you're not, there are lots of sanctions coming to russia to isolate russia from the rest of the world. for more on the sanctions coming from the european union, specifically here's our corresponded peter over decision to place rushes, strategic and deterrence forces, which includes nuclear elements on high alert. and that was viewed as a major escalation, as in europe,

as it was expected to be viewed. we heard from ursula fondling the you, commission president, who said a to boo has gone, and the european union will now provide a weapons into a conflicts own at the you will provide weapons to ukraine and it isn't going to be the whole of the e. u. member states doing this and hungry has said that they won't be providing weapons. however, countries that have never done this previously have said that they will, including sweden have said that they will be providing arms to, to ukraine. right now. we also heard from a you leaders like joseph barrell lee, you commission hi bay, you european union. hi, representative for foreign affairs saying that our t sputnik and all subsidiaries would be banned from broadcasting within the european union. and today we're taking a crucial estate. turn off the tap for the russians. information manipulation in europe may manning russia to day and sputnik from broadcasting ended of the

in union. while we're also seeing the closure of u. s. space to all our russian owned russian registered or russian controlled aircraft, as was announced by yourself on the line. we are shutting down the e u. air space for rushes. we're proposing a prohibition on our russian owned russian registered and russian controlled aircraft. these aircraft will no more be able to land in take off over fly the territory of the european union. and that includes the private jets of oligarchs to the european union. continuing to take more sanctions against russia in retaliation for russia's actions in ukraine. you are watching our to international, our continuing coverage of the russia ukraine crisis. it continues after a short break. stay with us. ah

ah ah and i dream shaped bankers are those with

theirs sinks. we dare to ask. ah right welcome back. this is our to international life from moscow. so over in the u . k, the government, not only been one of the toughest in terms of fresh sanctions on russia and sending weapons into ukraine. it's a foreign secretary has also even appeared to back, britons who go to fight for kiff and his policy clear reports we had heard from the bushes foreign secretary eliza trust, who has said that she will support britons who decide to go to ukraine to fight.

now this has raised a number of eyebrows because this uncertainty as to the legality of going abroad to join a foreign war. we also heard from her saying that she will not disclose the number of refugees that britain will accept. this follows an earlier debate and ferocious criticism act. the government's lack of announcing that it will relax. the visa requirements for people from ukraine who want to come and seek refuge here in the u . k. it also comes as the u. k. and 15 other nato countries back a boost to send arms to ukraine. and these are countries that have st will, are a proven to send significant deliveries of military equipment. now, with the western allies decision to impose sanctions on russia and to not allow a significant number of banks access to the swift international military fund is

something that britian had already signed off on earlier and agreed to do. so you now have countries like u. s. canada and key europe in countries including germany, saying this, and as i mentioned, choosing selected are russian banks, but bush and has also admitted that they're prepared to take an economic hits in supporting such a move. this long running conflict is about freedom and democracy in europe because if we do not stop payton and ukraine, we're going to see others on the threat, the voltage holland, moldova, it could end up in a conflict with nato. now the foreign secretary has also said that she believes that sanctions will take a long time to be felt that from her opinion this war could go on for a long time. she's also say she's putting a hitler's together with so called hypnos of rush, holly ghast, 2 a closely associated to the russian president vladimir putin. and that they will

have to quote no where to run the assets will be frozen and other sanctions imposed against them. and in the next few weeks, they will the, the u. k. will continuing adding names to that list. so this comes against the backdrop of a number of marches happening here in various cities across the u. k. in london, in oxford, and in edinburgh, will keep you abreast of developments. political science lecturer, john loveland told us that europe's bearing on our tea, raises disturbing issues and questions. nato's sabre rattling in countries outside the military block nato is the most powerful military alliance in the history of humanity. its expenditure dwarfs that of russia, its power dwarfs that of russia. how can anyone say off to these decades of native wars in yugoslavia and libya? that is not a threat to anyone, particularly when the british foreign secretary,

britain is one of the most important nato powers. seems to imply that mulder is part of nato motive, or is not part of nato. she also says we have to fight for ukraine because otherwise we will be threatened. well, nature does not have to fight for ukraine. nature has to fight for its member states. it doesn't fight for other countries, it fights for its member states. so everyone is losing their heads at the moment. and therefore, it's entirely understandable that russia should be raising the stakes in this way, seeing actual, yvonne delay in the european commission precedent. and i'm saying that, so the, you, i'm just reading, the quote will ban russian media outlets. that's all the and sputnik accusing us to spreading harmful dis, information. we try best to put a balance across, we know we're licensed by off calm in the u. k. and europe, they've deemed us to be okay to license we are of course going to put the russian point of view. what's wrong with that? well, what's wrong with it is that it's totalitarian. you don't suppress media outlets.

that's a basic principle. if the e u is going to suppress r t, and that means european union citizens will no longer be able to watch those channels. that one forces them to watch them. it is a measure that she is announced which drastically reduces the liberties of you citizens. and i'm sure it will make a slightest bit of difference to russia. but it does make a difference to people who want to watch r t and sputnik. and i mean, we've got used to, to tell attorneys and for 2 years now with all the cobra madness. but this is, this is, this is in the same category. in any case what, what laws is she is claiming to be operating under the you doesn't have that authority any more than that has the authority. by the way, as far as i know, to close as spaces you mentioned in your report above all, i mean independently of the issue between russia and nato and ukraine. i think anyone watching this, any european citizen watching this should be deeply preoccupied by the assault on

his own rights. his own and right. you mentioned just now in your report from london about the seizure of assets belonging to rationale got in london. well, what happened to due process? what happened to property rights? we really saying that from one day to the next, somebody's property can be taken away just because they're deemed to be politically close to russia. this is literally dictatorship. i don't want to sound hysterical, but somebody has to pull the alarm bell on this and say that these kinds of measures undermine the very thing which the british government, another european governments claim to be standing full. namely, the rule of law and democracy are now that was political science lecturer, john los linda. earlier speaking to my colleague kevin owen, now the ukranian delegation is traveling to the ukraine bellows border for talks with russia through a long root that's out of concerns for their lives. this is, according to a source close to the situation. the russian delegation is already at the scene

waiting for their ukrainian counterparts. france kids in augusta lived in la ukrainian delegation, advanced to the tongs by a long route through the republic of poland. and then through the territory of the republic, vellerilla through the warsaw bridged orders crossing billows. they said this was downtown security issues since hostilities are ongoing on the belushi and the water area. and in particular, in the charity of re little adding that they can become victims of either accidental rock and fire or territorial defense actually saying that is because they distributed tens of thousands of machine gun while for nails and archimedes to civilians without checking them or their medical certificates or criminal records, the russian delegation is already at the agreed meeting place, one of the state residences on the banks of the pretty young, where they are waiting for during ukrainian colleagues with us. there's been a lot of back and forth, but it's safe to say now the peace talks are happening. the russian delegation is now in the government region in bell roof, where the negotiations are expected to take place the exact location,

those captain secret for security reasons. but we understand that it's going to happen right on the border between ukraine and ballard. bruce near the pitch river, perhaps one of the border crossings. the media are not invited obviously, but we expect the public statement from the russian negotiators. as soon as the meeting is over, russia's chief negotiator of latimer 1000000 ski said earlier that the parties are now deciding on logistics and security arrangements. so let's have a listen to what he said. we have received information from the ukranian site that it agrees to negotiate talks will take place in the common region as we proposed earlier. now we are creating a path for the ukranian site to pass through safely. we awaiting here for the ukrainian delegation. kansas were initially low that these talks would happen. the russian delegation came to minutes earlier on sunday, only to hear that key of has no desire decided delegation to bela roost on the grounds that meant largely took active part in russia's military operation in

ukraine. this is something that the battle rushing president, alexander lucas shank, or vehemently denied than the russian sad. we're going to wait until 3 pm moscow time and i will leave. and as they were about to depart from moscow, the ukrainian president phone, his bell rushing counterpart and said that he's ready to send, he's people and have negotiations. however, he said later on, but he doesn't have high hopes for the outcome of these talks. to be honest, i do not believe in the outcome of this meeting, but let them try so that not a single citizen of ukraine has any doubts that either president did not try to stop the war when there was at least a small chance. but to chance nonetheless, it's hard to tell exactly what has caused this. you turned from the craning side earlier, the ukranian president suggested other european capitals like warsaw, og bratislava. buddha passed, as well as eastern bull and turkey and the capital of another former soviet,

for public, azerbaijan, a bach, who. but as the deadline said by the russian side approached of latimer zalinski, all of a sudden changed his mind and confirmed. the craning delegation headed by a deputy foreign minister is on its way towards the valor, was border. russian delegation and belarus includes a deputy foreign minister, a deputy minister of defense had of the foreign affairs committee in russia's parliament, russia's envoy in belarus, as well as a russian presidential aid mitree mit in ski. he is the head of the russian delegation. we know from what the russian president said earlier that the russian offensive was halted on february 25th. when zalinski 1st mentioned, he wants to talk and discuss a natural status for ukraine than he changed his mind and the operation was resumed . it's also hard to tell if the 2 sites can find common ground here. all right, you are watching or to international are continuing coverage of the russia. ukraine crisis continues after short breakthroughs.

oh, what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy, even foundation, let it be an arms race group is on often very dramatic development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successfully, very critical of time. time to sit down and talk who is your media? a reflection of reality in the world transformed what will make you feel safer? isolation, whole community. are you going the right way or are you being

direct? what is true? what is great? in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths. or remain in the shallows. ah, now she is a christina. it isn't with us, but i'm the one who knows maybe a bomb.

ah! with welcome back. this is our t international life from moscow. now let's have a look at developments on the ground in ukraine as we can get them in and make

sense of them as we enter day 5 of this conflict, lots of moving parts, lots of information coming in. lots of, he said, she said, so we will try and verify as much as possible. so with reports of advances by russian troops and don bass forces against the ukrainian army in various parts of the country. the you can look at the maps here, martin, red and blue on this map are the 2 dom bash republics. according to the borders recently recognized independently by russia. the russian defense ministry has announced that lugens militia forces have at retaken territory from the ukrainian army. 52 kilometers beyond the previous front line. while daniel forces have addressed by 12 kilometers and i witnessed video appears to confirm not independently verified mind you multiple accusations of ukraine's military using civilians as human shields and operating inside residential areas. now, this footage allegedly shows frightened students trying to get an armored personnel

carrier out of a public court yard in front of residential buildings, which one woman says is full of children hiding from the war. take a look and judge for yourself the law and despite the russian armies advance the done yet, and lugens republics claimed that several towns were targeted in missile attacks, including nicolay africa, where russian and military forces save that. they rescued an elderly woman. okay, when you 1st another yes. did you follow up with and staying in the done yet? scandal. ganske republics. parties, roman cusser of is in the dumbass region with the latest trickles. the ukranian

army are retreating. but sir, they are destroying everything on their, on their way on this, on this retreat, according to a local officials or the korean army or targeting civilian infrastructure in people's home. and they're using a so called a scorched earth policy against the civilians and not the military. now they added that the ukrainian military, the ones who are still fighting or placing their positions in near us civilians, homes and schools, and kindergartens, and virtually turning civilians into a human shields. once again, this according to the local officials, and of course we can hear artillery strikes here in the nest where i am right now. on saturday, a massive, massive artillery attack was heard throughout the city and they were 152 millimeter holiday. her hollitz or shelves that that landed about 5 kilometers away for war

around standing right now. and it wants to villian was reportedly killed during those attacks. the city of the nest suspended for public transportation. many houses had been destroyed. the apartment buildings. and so here is one witness accounts from saturday night of what can you do? you just can't do anything about it. thank god, at least i am alive. god is looking out for me. well, the total number of civilians who were killed her during the ukrainians armies. attacks now stands at 8 people this only over the last as 72 hours and the school the people had been injured as well. like i said before, civilian infrastructure had been targeted here in san nest. as the thousands of thousands of people now have no access to water or electricity. now, over in logan's people's republic, an oil depot, a fuel depot, was struck by a ballistic missile. ah, creating a huge

a fire. apparently the missile is called the tortuga, or it's an major classification assessed $1.00 to $1.00 scarab and it is capable of carrying a nuclear warhead. that wasn't the case. in this instance. however, it weighs 2000 kilograms and a very, very 5 frightful weapon. now people's sir, i militia reported that there had been no, it's allergies or there in logan's. however, some people were, are wounded as a result of this ballistic missile attack, according to a local officials. and according to the russian defense, the ministry of donors can elegance, peoples, or militias are moving deeper and deeper into the territory formerly controlled by ukraine and both law. both republic, sir, report that they have liberated several settlements in le ganske and in don't ask

as well. they're also reporting that the summer ukrainian soldiers are actually surrendering and switching sides as that they been promised a safe package, a passage back home. and an amnesty from this a war on our head of the next people's republic. denise bushland said that this operation will, i will last for a few more days, but he said it will not stop until the rest of the nest people's republic is liberated. and that's a statement is echoed by the soldiers on the ground as well as them here in my personal opinion, we must get our territories back from these evil peoples to there will be peace and every one will sleep well close to corrosion. the enemy has been moving in different ways and most places they run, but sometimes they fight to the very end. but that's mainly those fighting for political reasons. basically, everyone is running away and giving up. it's been a relatively quiet hearings anesco this says sunday as the fighting is moving further away from from the city. some of the most fear. so fierce fighting has

taken place in the south of the republic near the city of maribel, which is currently encircled by the neo nazi asoft. but sally, of which has been linked to o war crimes by the united nations. and reportedly they have a place their positions around the civilians using them as a human shield or donna pyre. pill of the gray zone, independent new site, told us that in her view, washington's influence is a major factor in the situation in ukraine. right now. it's been going on for 8 years. ukraine's sovereignty was initially violated in 2014, when the united states supported openly a q in pierre installed the public government and then sparked off current conflict in the countries east. the suffering of the people of don bass, who had experienced shelly and artillery fire at the hands of the ukrainian

military over the past 8 years leading to the death of nearly 15000 people. their story has been completely erased in u. s. media, i think if you pulled the average american individual u. s. american individual, they wouldn't have even known that there was a war in ukraine for these past 8 years president via and just approve $350000000.00 in weapons to be released to ukraine to the cleaning a rent. i wonder where those weapons will go, considering a russia has all but wiped out ukraine's main military capacity. it's disturbing because just in recent weeks in the united states report surfaced in media, showing that and this is according to u. s. officials, the united states has been covertly training ukrainian horses in order to respond to a potential russian entry into their country. creating the kind of pretext for

a situation as we saw in syria where the u. s. isn't officially working with the government or the military, but training paramilitary groups in order to destabilize ukraine and embroil russia in a prolonged conflict. i think that is the worst case scenario we could see play out at this point. so how is russia being isolated right now? with you countries closing their airspace to russian plains, the russia has been forced to stop flights to europe. at the same time. flights to the southern regions of russia are also canceled over security reasons. the only way to get there now is the long way round. for instance, by trent or choose murray phenomena on her way to the front lines of the fighting in logan's. ca takes us through how traveller now looks. we arrived to rocephin rushes southwest. usually it's a 2 hour relaxing flight from moscow, but instead this time it took us more than 15 hours on

a train. all major airports in the area bordering the conflict have been close since the beginning of the operation, as you can see, security side even here, while it's more than 200 kilometers away from the fighting. also remember, and her meeting with russian count bought, rich foreign secretary said that britain will never recognize ra, stop. and we're one is regions as russian mistaking them for the nance and logan's republics war tone area is not far from here. that's here. thousands of evacuees have escaped here in the last 8 clean to fighting the ball to course in just a couple of hour drive away, and we're now taking the same tree, but opposite direction . oh,

very good. we crossed the border lugens hayes, now some 65 kilometers away. bullet proof jackets and helmets is a mouthful. old journalist working now here in both lugens and, and he has peoples republics. we're going to be driving base way through the tertiary now on the total control of the republican forces, but every day it's still shall. i haven't been here since 2014 when the conflict between ki of and then the countries breakaway eastern regions, are gone and the news started. thank you. russia haven't seen this. they sign a period here half to those events. the road runs through little towns and villages. there was one check point just behind us straight lines. traffic lights have counted 5 cars. i've seen a couple of people here in there and i can tell you it does seem quite abandoned.

it's hard to count. of course, but according to different estimates in 8 years, the conflict took around $15000.00 lives, plus many fled and do not will to come back yet. and now with peace talks hope to high that the war will end finally and here and peace will return. and we journalists will no longer be required to wear this while we're can here brief notion of party from lugens, great public eye witnesses have reportedly filled this footage, which they say shows russian forces entering ukraine's 2nd city hargrove. something also claimed by its mayor. he added that russian troops are already in the city center. meanwhile, fighting is being ported in the suburbs of key if some buildings have caught fire amid the clashes. the local mayor and a video address as ukrainian forces have repelled russian attacks. and

overnight, saturday, on verified video, apparently appeared from key is showing what is said to be crossfire just kilometers from the heart of the capital close to the infrastructure ministry built around 25 kilometers from the capital. a reported explosion has caused a large fire and an oil depot. this on verified video shows the blaze with plumes of smoke billowing into nights getting lots of information coming in. and also in the suburbs of kiff rushes, defense ministry says the ukranian army has used ammunition filled with phosphorus, as well as rockets internationally banned by the un. ukraine has not yet commented on the allegations. of course we will bring you their response. if we get it in for the billing room, if you were green, if ukrainian units are desperate to stop, the russian army had begun the matthews of ammunition filled with phosphorus in the

suburbs of kiev and near the guster mill airfield. they have used 122 millimeter howitzer, shells and rockets for grad installations from soviet times. the use of these munitions is prohibited by the 3rd protocol of the 1980 united nations convention uncertain conventional weapons reports. that people have taken to some of russia's biggest cities to protest against the military operation. take a look. oh wow. yeah. 100 to came out on the streets of central st. petersburg, attempting to know to roy footage shows some protesters being taken to police. there. there are also reports that more than 300 people have been with 2 cities across similar demonstrations are being held around the world. one of the biggest is in the german capital where more than a $100000.00 are taking part in

a ukraine solidarity march. this according to police, some flu, ukrainian flags, and one masks in the country's blue and yellow colors. right, that does it for me. i will be back and let's say 15 minutes with another full and fresh lectures. this is our to international. we're trying to stay on top of all for you. ah ah, ah .
