9:02 am
russia and bella roost. ukrainian officials in sift safe reg, sit, routes remain short as they believe. the evacuation of people to these states is an acceptable and over in europe, energy prices break all time rec holds amid sanctions against russia, with ukrainian presidents now urging the west of boycott the impulse of all russian oil and petrol products. however, the german chancellor just defended decision to maintain and just supplies from russia to european union. there was a huge explosion at little guns old f o. early this morning. this on verified video shows a raging fire and plumes of smoke rising into the sky. local authorities blamed a ukrainian missile strike saying they had to fuel tanks, reportedly no, was injured in the incidence. ortiz corresponded, riff in russia, has the latest we here in lou ganske this morning, walk up from a sound of massive explosion. were rushed to the window to see this,
9:03 am
you now can see black smoke, but there was boys before them as well. fire fighters are currently working on the ground to fix it. and now we hear from local military authorities that to the cities. oil depot was heat by, they say torture. you may say this is a high precision tactical, ballistic missile that they say this time was fired from around the city of sarah. then yet some 75 kilometers from where we are now. this is where the frontline lies and indeed they believe ukraine's armed forces ard behind the attack, and they strongly condemn targeting civilian infrastructure. we haven't heard any common. oh, any reaction on what happened here in logan's from key of yet. meanwhile, here where i am now, lou ganske republic, her local army is continued to advance as you said, and on some directions, they have already succeeded around like 75 kilometers. and we hear reports from
9:04 am
local military authorities that they have already taken control over alike, around 60 villages. and here's my report on what happens when the army here on the ground takes control over a town or a village, fighting attacking, advancing, capturing ground. that's how the military moves forward. but what happens next is perhaps even more important clearance. this is what the army has to do in every village. they take control off, they check every street. every house especially destroyed to make sure there are no explosives. a common tactic by the ukrainian armies to mine air is they retreat from this one is already cleared. but what's also crucial is the careful tracking of those who remain civilians are of course, free to go. but all those affiliated with the military are detained for further
9:05 am
investigation. this is what happened to tatiana, a former nurse in the ukrainian armed forces. that yona hasn't seen her daughter in 5 days. that's how long it took for the logan square public authorities to check and make sure she poses no threat. now the fighting has moved on. i fits on level. sure. sure. why in the salvation army crane failure to laneesa barrows, we proceed. let us be scared. don't storage us will re to cook. when would you? if sure jojo has done sketchily. okay. was that a shot circle? don't use that on a kernel and elegance, garmin, personally with her since ya to her family. apparently, this is the 1st time this has happened in your book, at least in logan's all prisoners of war. i said to be detained until hostilities are over sick for new bird grove, you can little go. dozer loader door number warner oscars. him took the test over pony crystal clear because the keyword and you build it was additionally the more feature for which i'm a new when you look in your gravy, a manual formula,
9:06 am
crystal clear because on the way of yours was moses with your computer or live to what you thought, if you put them away for a shame relative of the no, it's not going to school. we've got a 4 by book now the mirror. see, but the book, not everybody agrees that janice neighbors say she helped keeps military. so should be in jail. but yeah, i joined ukraine's army back in 2016 to make ends meet. they paid well look now she says she feels betrayed. thorn, meaning spa solve my you chest, me as possible. if there's periodontal stood knock on company who knew who was growing solo graham, the 1st one was politely tim, closer to that older and would kill new slurs eternal g. and you would, you do what they mean in you. when you duty to suckering you to see business williams seem young, that jani is not the 1st member of you,
9:07 am
phrase military to address her former uniform colleagues with such calls. as days turned to weeks, there heard more frequently, but as the war in this conflict, weary region rages on, it seems such voices are not always heard. murray, phenomena are tea from the logan's great public. on this fighting continues in ukraine, russia's defense ministry says done yet. can lou guns forces continue to take more territory that says russian troops are also bouncing in other parts of the country? these photos allegedly show the aftermath of ukrainian army shelling of a civilian area in the dungeons region. 5 people were reportedly injured on the local nursery, also heads. and over the ne cove has been heavily shelled and a market was hits. as you can clearly see in this footage, there also reports that the fighter jet was down in the area with both sides claiming credit for the attack on some one verified. but you just put before to,
9:08 am
to show a missile, striking the prosecutor's office and the tv, our ukrainian woman, whose husband was killed by armed looters, was less terrified and injured. the couple fled kiev with a child to the summer house outside the capital. and now the woman has been treated for a gunshot wound in the city hospital of mosier in better. bruce was a shovel in the morning. it seemed like everything was fine. there were no soldiers, our military vehicles in the village, but they were nearby driving along the central highway. my husband went outside close the door and went to his neighbor to collect water from the well. he was then shot dead by 2 people. they were not soldiers, but most likely armed looters. weapons are being distributed to everyone now. they fired at the windows and then climbed into the house. they looked around but did not see my child in me as we were hiding. they left through the window, but then fired back at the front door. the bullet hit me, and then they were gone. well, meanwhile,
9:09 am
the 3rd round of negotiations between russia and ukraine has already started. the head of the russian delegation says you did, you want to tear an issue will be one of the main topics of discussion i. cisco delegates, super below the russian delegation has arrived. as agreed upon to start talks, the ukrainian delegation is late. we found this to be a diplomatic tradition on the parts of ukraine rules. we will discuss the same 3 sets of issues with the political resolution, the international humanitarian issue in the military issues smells of says, as you know, as the last meeting we achieved an agreement on humanitarian corridors for the civilian population to exit hotspots. espia, russia was prepared to open those hotspots, and a cease fire regime was in operation. unfortunately, none of them were effective. we conducted observations using amanda arrow vehicles and so ukrainian nationalists preventing the corridors from being operational made . and i will relay one episode in particular that occurred yesterday in the east and outskirts of mario post,
9:10 am
an area which has been surrounded by the dumbass people's republic militia and nationalist battalion. try to escape the city shall. so just as in the great patriotic war, they had about a 150 civilians, including women and children in front of them, forcing them to go before them as little. then they commanded the civilians to lie down and then open fire teachers can as a result, as we know that 4 civilians were killed and 5 injured. that on my rule, these nationalists were also partially destroyed, and the rest of them fled to customers. that this is an example of the way humanitarian corridors work. according to some ukranian authorities and some warring factions which reach the laws of war and ana, i will allow you to make your own conclusions option. we will try to continue talks and ensure humanitarian corridors are operational. but as off on our side, our armed forces have enacted a ceasefire in the air is necessary, and people have the ability to get out. sadly, though, the nationalists, who have held the cities, you civilians are living shields both directly and indirectly. and this is
9:11 am
undoubtedly a war crime which will be investigated in due course, but a spirit of our builder. as the head of the russian delegation just mentioned that the agreement over the humanitarian corridors to the sides previously agreed on is allegedly yet to be implemented properly. by the ukrainians, ukrainian vice president claims the corridors that lead to russia on accessible while moscow says the people haven't even been informed of these roots said nipping anthony variant. it's an unacceptable option for humanitarian corridors to be open . we are, people will not go from ivan coffee, which is near kiana to beller, is in order to then fly by plane to rush at him. so i hope that the french president micron understands that his name and sincere desire to help the civilian population of ukraine as well as foreign citizens of china, pakistan, india, and many other countries is actually being used and manipulated by russia. and she said not to be able to grab and official response from the ukranian side was only received at 7 o'clock in the morning to day. however,
9:12 am
the key of regime deliberately didn't mention the opening of the humanitarian corridors to the russian federation from kia was the carcass. i marry you, paul, and sue me up to the citizens. of those and other residential areas weren't informed of the opportunity for safe evacuation at all. i think the law, this is nothing but explicit cynicism towards their fellow citizens. meanwhile, in other ukrainian regions, these unverified videos show people waiting for evacuation roots and train stations in a leave and never withdraws us where they've been reportedly forced to wait in queues for hours to flee those cities. russian humanitarian aid has also continued headings of those in need in ukraine. convoys. pipes with food have arrived in the city of care. san after was taken by russian forces bots as our senior correspondent, rogue. as the reports, some ukrainian nationalists have reportedly been trying to intimidate those accepting that help in all these areas now under the control of russian
9:13 am
forces and where humanitarian aid is being delivered. we see the same scene being repeated, and that is hundreds, thousands of people queuing, a distribution points for desperately needed food and, and always, i'm full of spoilers appear most often with, with mobile phones to film what they're doing. they'll stand aaron and shout insults that brush and troops or the masses queuing for desperately needed food. they then upload that footage to social media or friendly western media outlets to create the impression that ukrainians are against brush an aide when it couldn't be further from the truth. across liberated areas of ukraine, convoys of russian aid, food and essentials, are an increasingly common sight. hundreds of tons have been loaded and sent to ukrainian cities and communities on the verge of starvation. but some people,
9:14 am
but rather she thousands starve and cues that stretch for hundreds of meters. you'll find them holding phones in people's faces. they are few in number, but aggressive and loud. i really don't. yes, this is tame compared to what other ukranian nationalists are saying. they want to hunt down any one starving or not. who takes baggy needed food from the russian convoys door dumping out toward your mall. not hulu. they do those because wall other give the bomb him to them. buick machine for me, but don't william so i mean there's been lots of other hormones to those because of all of them. good feeling. they are a tiny minority, the nationalists said neo nazis, but they have enormous sway years of murder,
9:15 am
violence, bullying, and intimidation. have frightened people to the cool few dare to stand up to them, but judge for yourself, for every 1000 people, the welcome rush, an aid, only a handful, appeared to insult and scream. you're good! you got that, jim. i want to say all of the citizens of hers and that i wish them health. i want to thank you. we are very happy and grateful. oh sir. co owned us at the but on the shackle, the street, we have a supermarket nearby. it's empty. there's nothing in the store except sweets. there's a shout next to us. i stood in line there to buy 2 slices of cheese and a pack of butter i gave $197.00 hiena. this are and thinkable prices. they like more endorse. there's a crazy q from bread people cannot buy bread to not russia's intended. d, nuts application of ukraine has already begun at will likely be an intense process given how grave the security threat ease. just kilometers from where aid workers
9:16 am
were handing out food. russian forces detained a man with explosives, firearms, and the orders ridiculous. what is your rank? what branch of the armed forces? the 124th territorial defense brigade, head of military civilian cooperation. the threat of terrorist attacks bombings, subterfuge will likely grow as nationalists and neo nazis hunker down and go into hiding. but for now, it remains a tough balancing act for russia. juggling the needs of the people and their goodwill while fulfilling its goal. the demilitarization and g knots of vacation of ukraine, or i'd gas div from here, son, ukraine, amid pressure to strengthen sanctions from western countries, oil and gas prices has skyrocketed over the last few days. dots is present, the landscape calls for a complete embargo on russian energy. exports is not clear though,
9:17 am
whether western politicians are ready to take the risk while to discuss the rising prices. i am joined in the studio by our correspondence, don quarter don. what are the implications of these huge price rises for the west of the moment? while like you just said, energy prices across the western world are just sky rocketing across the board. in the united states, the price of oil is just below its record peak from back in 2008. and in europe, the price of gas has actually surpassed. it's all time high records. we're talking about over $3900.00 for a 1000 cubic meters of natural gas. that's $373.00 per kilowatt hour. that's. that's a price that many people just months ago would have said was apocalyptic, really. and so we have to ask ourselves, how did prices get to this point? well, it specifically happened after western leaders simply talked about a full ban on imports from russia, the world's largest,
9:18 am
the world's largest oil export, or full ban on it. oil imports from russia, and an actual band has not even come into effect yet. and yet we're still seeing these price rises and the european commission is talking about putting forward different policies that will even potentially make prices go higher. let's take a listen to morrow. the european commission will table proposals on how to quickly get rid of our dependency on russian fossil fuels. this means diversifying suppliers, switching to liquefied natural gas and pipeline gas re powering the e u by investing and renewables improving energy efficiency. now not long after we heard that statement, it became pretty apparent that not everyone in europe is on board. with this stance, germany's chancellor said it can't. the country can't replace russian oil imports overnight. and so the country is going to have to continue to do business with russia in the sphere of oil. and i think it goes without saying that european energy policy really is among one of the major reasons why europe has had some of
9:19 am
the highest energy prices in the world for a long time. even before this russian offensive began. and we saw these most recent skyrocketing prices, and also it's one of the reasons why this energy crisis began at the end of last year. so the european commission is proposing continuing these policies. and at the same time, when we talk about american liquefied natural gas, it's important to note that anthony, blinking just yesterday said that he was in, he was going to start talking with european politicians about potentially bringing them in on an anti russian oil imports embargo and so american not, not liquefied natural gas, who's the only party that's going to win out in such a ban on rush. no, of course is going to be washington, especially with the u. s. house of representatives there already drafting a bill to make that embargo happen. so in terms of other people that are in support of this embargo, we also have to note the ukranian president. let's take
9:20 am
a listen what he said. now, she delivers morals. if the invasion continues in russia does not abandon its plans against ukraine, then a new sanctions package is needed against the war. there should be a boycott of russian exports and a rejection of oil in oil products from russia. this can be referred to as an embargo, or you could just call it a moral choice. it is necessary to cast aside fear and forget about commerce. both countries and companies need to take a moral stance. now we've, we've heard the strong words, we've heard these threats about imposing this bond on bush of the west has so far stopped short of doing this. do you think it's possible that he could impose this all out, been on russian oil exports without catastrophic consequences. back home, while the key words, they're catastrophic consequences. i don't think that's possible and we can look at what the analysts have been saying that, for example, from bank of america, they've said that if russian oil imports are completely cut off, we could be looking at a doubling of the price in a bit of
9:21 am
a barrel of oil and what the analysts from j. p. morgan also echoed that sentiment . they said that by the end of the week the, the price of a barrel of oil could be as high as $185.00. and that's, you know, that's a lot in comparison to what it is right now. but let's, it's also important to mention a more relevant example. something that just happened recently, shell oil, the oil and gas company bought 100000 metric tons of oil from the russian federation. and they did that. not because they said that they preferred to or, or, or what not. they said because they had absolutely no alternative. let's take a listen to the official statement. yesterday we made the difficult decision to purchase a cargo of russian crude oil refineries produce petrol and diesel, as well as other products that people rely on every day to be clear without an uninterrupted supply of crude oil refineries. the energy industry cannot assure continued provision of essential products to people across europe over the weeks
9:22 am
ahead. cargoes from alternative sources would not have arrived in time to avoid disruptions to market supply. so as we just saw, there shall had to buy russian oil to prevent supply short false. it was an absolute necessity. and at the same time, we're seeing actual ukrainian officials trying to shame anyone who does business with russia, the ukrainian foreign minister commented on shells. decision to buy that much oil from russia, and he asked the company if that oil smells like the blood of ukraine, of ukrainian people. i mean, this is, this is kind of in contradiction. the fact that these companies are doing it out of necessity. but whatever washington and brussels thinks, i think they're going to accomplish by completely potentially banding imports of russian oil. there's no doubt that the blowback is going to be so large that they're going to end up shooting themselves in the foot. why don't thank you very much for being the latest on those spiking oil prices. thank you. and now to scotland, where an independence movement is under fire from scottish media,
9:23 am
that's as it refuses to accept the mainstream media coverage of ukraine is accurate from all. let's go live now to tommy sheridan, a former scottish parliament member, organize all of the scottish independent movements. hope over fit. tommy, welcome to the program. now we've seen a dramatic increase in energy prices over the past couple of days or so not while western politicians are still threatening to bond russian energy exports. do you think it's possible for the west to go through with such a bon without disastrous consequences. back home, given the existing high prices. well, i think as always was wars, the people who are going to suffer most of ordinary people. what can class people people can afford the current energy bows. never main to energy bills are going to double travel and maybe even quadruple as a result of this particular crisis. and as with that in mind that we argue ultimate
9:24 am
people argue for peace. we don't want war, you know, one and the re main ones war because the only back comes of war. ordinary men, women, children, are horrible condemnation from the point of view of those of us who don't accept that wouldn't say the narrative of the west, the media point of use it as we don't just condemn the war and ukraine. we condemn the, the water polish thing to water somalia, the water in yemen, the sanctions illegal sanctions and venezuela, the legal sanctions in bolivia, illegal sanctions. and i know of what we have to go away from this unit poor. i wouldn't say the view of the planet that with russia and particularly blood to me, of putting just as evil as a media, as i have. and that is new russian. all the new one picks what has happened on the 22nd of february. i reject the idea. i don't support invading other countries. i
9:25 am
have to make that clear. why don't accept that? there is no provocation. i don't accept that as a rational from russia point of view, russia fumes, correct? and as a, as a nation, russia, i promise, is broken as far as neat, was concerned after being thing to one with the new inch expansion to the east was given and has just been broken. and you have a needle that is very aggressive. i need to, but i promise promise asked the people of yugoslavia after 78 days and nights of bombing ask the people of libya, of rock of afghan, understand what regions what carpet bombing is all about. and then be able to tell you that that was the behavior of the age and need to. so while i me have criticisms of invasion of you clean, what i'm not prepared to do is suspend critical thought of the reasons behind it.
9:26 am
because the pain that, and this is feel which is behind the screen is going to be used as cleaning the area to begin to bring in my sales that could destroy russia as, as a nation. i talked to interrupt. you told me we only got a limited amount of time. not would it make it should have been imposed on russia so far. and do you see a certain level of hypocrisy in them on the one hand, you know, we have, there are other countries. saudi arabia has have a dubious human rights record book. it will still host an f one race the same by john, which is at war. but now in russia we have the visa, mastercard, pulling out up the limits in services, just to name a few. what do you make of the west responses? it proportionate the whole response of the west to this invasion in my opinion,
9:27 am
is all even with double standards and to paul chrissy. we are to accept the continued, there's really occupation of polish stain and the possession of what has been called and part 8 regime by international organ positions. we ought to accept the fact this. saudi arabia is bombing yemen to the stone. each was weapons system supply by the u. s. and do you key what? there are no sanctions on israel. there are no sanctions on saudi arabia, but there are sanctions imposed on russia. and in fact, we have to heat russia. he all things russian. that's not. and in my life blood, i don't eat russia, i don't eat russians. i want a world of peaceful who existence by recognize the imbalance in or what we just know is because of western leaders who want to promote colonialism to remote imperialism. venezuela what they've done wrong as far as americans consume and yet
9:28 am
have their sanction for human was the point of which is costing the lives of reasons every single here because we can get medicine, we can get food stops, people who are cuba her. so my apologies to interrupt you is only ice of time. okay, thank you very much for your insights into the ongoing ukraine crisis. tommy showed in former scottish member of parliament. thank you. thank you. oh pocky study prime minister among con, has hit out at those behind a joint letter from western envoys calling for pakistan to condemn rushes, actions in ukraine pakistan. her traditional ally of the west abstain from voting as the un at the un general assembly. so as the u engine with semi reprimanded russia, force acts in ukraine as heads of mission to the islamic republic of pakistan, we urge pakistan to join us in condemning russia's actions. what do you think of us? are we here slaves?
9:29 am
that whatever you say we will do, ah, we can cross live now 2 objects to hide a retired pakistani general. welcome to our see international. now, what do you make of the western envoys letter that condemns russia's actions in ukraine? do you support the un general assembly resolution condemning which is aggression? so lot of fun enjoy. i think there's a need need for us to support the resolution because it was not justified. if you condemn mon concrete, then you have to be you $100.00 that every one and then why list the additional charges there to become them. but don't, don't be selective. and i particularly, i personally feel that the, the bush and demand for the long for what i mean, you can do to concrete. well the just to just if i think and i think it's been
9:30 am
granted to the shop. and i think this has been forced into the situation. nobody can even look into the level except it looming large at his own doorstep. americans never like did been shut his eyes and cuba didn't started. and how can they expect the baton are doing this demand? what do you make of the western responds to russia's intervention, ukraine always the heavy functions have been imposed on your thoughts on that. i think these are not just the sanctions are justified by me. i feel that they have been used to euclid and other skip go if you're going to the country, which is missing the destruction and the other, they are just trying to in the sanctions. they're trying to impose sanctions on the chart.
