been coming from here, from the russian side. of course kyiv also as well. what we witnessed when this operation started, right around the time when we just saw matthew chance there started hearing those impacts in kyiv, is that we started hearing a lot of outgoing fire coming here from belgorod. we've been reporting about it for the past couple of weeks, that the russians have been amassing forces here. we saw a lot of armor pour into the region, but apparently also amassing artillery here and longer distance rockets as well. one of our producers actually saw some of those rocket salvos being fired towards ukrainian territory, and we heard it several times. we also heard what we believe were larger rockets that may have been launched as well. of course one of the things, michael, that we've been talking about is that the russians had also brought the iskander m medium-range missile system into this area and other areas close to ukraine as well. that has a very long range. it's a very powerful and also a very dangerous weapon as

from science and from the, from the danger. and we are scared are we, we are alone with our daughter. we don't have a defender. so that's why we, we are looking for some kind of a shelter and tower fancies from school life has been fighting. there today has been on the yes and to the the, the, the city but talent of where nearby they live nearby. it was just the story lately. can you tell her? yeah. how it feels to be here. i shall get. you just put that out. oh yeah. what are you hoping with now, with every day that passes with every grim new development in this war, these numbers are only going to grow overwhelming. the border guards here on the ukrainian side and the polish side. there progresses, achingly slow. they're only allowing groups of 50 people at the time through and you can see all these little sticks being held above people's heads with little pieces of paper on them. that marks a make ship group of 50 people waiting an awful long way ahead of them to get through and behind the bus load off the bus. off the bus l

don't take it from me. take it from the sheriff's in my district. our sheriff said fentanyl is coming into our country from our southern border. it is becoming an increasing problem and it's killing my citizens. randall county sheriff said, our guys on the ground tell us they know these drugs are coming through dayton via the southern border. hancock county sheriff said illegal drugs coming across the border affects everyone, and indiana is not immune. in decatur the sheriff explained it like this, fentanyl in our communities is not just a thing, it's the thing. democrats, stop down playing this crisis. it's killing hoosiers in indiana. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentlewoman from california seek recognition? >> madam speaker, i ask unanimous consent to address the house. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentlewoman is recognized for one minute. >> madam speaker, lunar new year is a time of celebration for so many people in los angeles and millions around the world. as we welcome the year of the ti

statement from, from the line and also from joseph burrell. the hi representative of the you who spoke before the meeting. they are also planning tough sanctions on better roofs. because of course, batteries has been involved in the military operation. and valerie is now going to be sanctioned. the regime of alexander lucas shameka is going to be sanctioned by the you, they say because of the races, direct involvement and military involvement. but also they don't want to be boundaries to be a place that can be used to don't just sanctions. so that trade can be done with by the race, and then the items can be sent on to russia. and so that's the reason for the sanctions on valerie switch. and now going to be posed also, russian media outlets, specifically are ti russia today and spot nick are now going to be a band in the european union and across the european union. i know that some they've been monitoring this and some media representatives that i've seen talking about this are concerned that that could mean incident reprisals from, from pres

from a north, from the south, and, and from the, from the east, where, where it hearing all sorts of reports of movements, fly, land, air, and sea. all right, so we're at andrew simmons life was there in the ukrainian capital. give andrew. thank you for that, sir. andrew painting a picture there of what could be at the start of the mechanized operation. we're hearing about columns of armored vehicles coming in from the bell russian border, or we haven't confirmed where it's going or, or, or, or how long it, it is. but we're just hearing now that sir, that build up of mechanized force is on the bell. russian border has now moved into an armored column, some kind of ahmed column moving perhaps in the direction of keith. all right? right. so these are pictures ah, of so right so, so, so what we're seeing an excuse me because these pictures are coming in thick and fast in the situations really changing quickly on the ground. so we heard back from andrew about the about these armored columns coming in from the bell russian border . those apparently we're just pictures of the roads and bea

from the officials. i here are, those were 152 millimeter or harvard servers or, or they said it could be multiple rocket launcher systems that were shelled at said genetics a little bit earlier. now this happens near the airport about 6 kilometers from a where i'm standing a right now. as the result, at the moment, municipal transfer, public transportation has been halted in the area and emergency services are on the scene, trying to figure figure out the result of what had happened. now, earlier on saturday in don't ask at least 3 private residences have also been damaged as a shilling, a continued stay here in this city. no, no reports about casualties about what happened earlier on saturday evening. but over the last 48 hours, there were at least 7 civilians killed in la ganske and a nurse because the results of the ukrainian shelling of course, scores were injured as the results are as well. now civilian infrastructure on the outskirts of the nest had been damaged and as a result, thousands of peopl

yes. votes from the members of the security council and abstained from from china. and the inevitable veto from russia. what we were hearing was what it was likely to get with the draft resolution. it was, it had been previously circulating, was 11 votes in the affirmative with at 2 extensions. but at 2 extensions, potentially from the u. a in india, and perhaps a double veto from both china and russia. now that would not look like russia was isolated. and that's the whole point of this as far as the u. s. is concerned to share international isolation. and if it's, if that 2 extensions and 2 vetoes from the security council, tony members, well that doesn't, doesn't do the trick. so we want to know whether this will be enough for the us to get wanted. wanted to have that scheduled meeting up at the top of the hour. thank you very much and wanting to us from united nations shebra can see that. well, the sporting all of those had been reacting to recent development. joe, as hen out the talisman. that's right, mariam? yes. b internationally because it's either sports or

biden, from, from his, from people on both sides of the all there in washington. as well as been launch leave. there's been some unity there, which is not what you normally get in washington these days. right. there has been pretty strong bipartisan support for biden's condemnation and his sanctions thus far against russia. although the republicans have said that these sanctions should have been levied sooner as more of a deterrent against russia. however, i, i, it's doubtful that anyone, realistically thought they could deter russia from taking the steps. it's taken once food and made up his mind. there is though some fraction within the republican party itself, which is interesting, the vast majority of congressional republicans, again backing biden. and how he's handling this, if not champion, or even a more severe response, but that fringe right led by none other than the former president donald trump. they have come under some criticism, especially on the eve of this russia, russian invasion of ukraine. president trump had called the deployment of, of troops

of course we are running from the silence and from the, from the danger. and we are scared. are we, we are alone with our daughter. we don't have any fender, so that's why we, we are looking for some kind of for shelter and tower fancies from so boy has been fighting. there today has been on the years and to the, the, the, the city, the town of where the nearby, they leave me a buy. it was just destroy it completely. can you tell it? yeah. how it feels to be here. i took it. i keep just put it on. oh yeah. what are you hoping with now will every day that passes with every grim new development in this war, these numbers are only going to grow overwhelming. the border guards here on the ukrainian side and the polish side. the progress is achingly slow. they're only allowing groups of 50 people of the time through and say, well as little sticks being held above people's heads with little pieces of paper on them. that mark a makes it a group of 50 people waiting an awful long way ahead of them to get through and behind the bus float off the bus float off the b

she is just from across the border from a scene.join them. other people, i met the woman who was from kyiv, but she has lived in germany for 20 years and she has come here to pick up herfriends from kyiv who is somewhere on the other side of the border waiting to cross and we are also hearing that some people are waiting, people in cars are waiting for eight to 12 hours across after making very long and arduous journeys. rob cameron reporting. hundreds of thousands of people have been making their way into europe. lucy williamson gave me this update from the moldovan border. we williamson gave me this update from the moldovan border.— the moldovan border. we spent the mornin: the moldovan border. we spent the morning here _ the moldovan border. we spent the morning here at _ the moldovan border. we spent the morning here at the _ the moldovan border. we spent the morning here at the border - the moldovan border. we spent the morning here at the border in - morning here at the border in moldova and hearing story of desperation, peopl

statue from syria. it's an exceptional find. the archaeologists we contact estimate. it's about 4000 years old. the broker asks for $10000.00 for it. ah eden. ah, ah ah, ah, we don't pursue the contact. this kind of small statue could be smuggled in a suitcase traveling from turkey to paris without raising any suspicions at all. it's cases like these that have also attracted the attention of morgan basic. the researcher also assists the o, c, b c, the french central police unit, the combat trafficking of cultural property, his boss at the osi bc colonel da da belgy is allowing a camera in the unit a rare exception. ok, this is rosetta thus, or who said, screw this sculpture from this irony necropolis and egypt still has fresh earth that sticks to your fingers. law is now in a container on its way to asia. lou. as in the spanish case, the french investigators look for fake provinces and false owners to cover their tracks, traffickers invent a past for their antiquities, including fake sales. ah, or gone

we met people from ghana from nigeria . we saw some asians walking around the it's, it's complicated. there's no tickets. you just have to grab and try to go in the midst of all that, a heart wrenching situation of fathers saying good bye to their children, to their wives, to their mothers. men have to stay here or have to stay at least in the country. so for many doesn't even make sense to go to the border, because then they'll find themselves all alone, at least here they stay at home. so you have all of that happening and when you ask them, when are you going to come back? when are you going to see your family again? no one has the answer for that. no one knows when they come back. this city will still be, as it is now, fairly peaceful, even though the air sirens have been going on for quite a while or no others coming from don't yet. and luc ganske region, they don't have to ever go to go back home because they don't know if the separatists will take full control of that area, which is what the separate is want. and so

let's get more from our reporter. what did we learn from this report? parts were left out. >> this is an update because of the overlaps with the metropolitan police criminal investigation. the update was still highly critical. it found there were failures at leadership and in judgment with this behavior that was difficult to justify. given what was happening in the rest of the country at the time. the report did not name johnson or explicitly say he had breached lockdown rules, broken the law or misled parliament. where does that leave him? it was confirmed that the full report will be released in the police investigation concludes. and the civil servant in charge has signaled there is a lot more to come. given these conclusions already being so big, if you dial them up, it may not leave a lot of wiggle room. dani: the prime minister kept saying that we have to wait for the full report. will it be enough to convince boris johnson's own mps he has to go? >> that line was repeated again and again. and an embarrassing moment was when his predecessor said h

and also from the south from crimea. as i said, that we're that in russian naval base is. and we've been seeing amphibious landings reports of that from maria pull and even odessa, key strategic locations on ukraine's black sea coast. now one possibility here, one of the biggest fears is if the troops in the south and the east can link up, they may be able to cut off the ukrainian forces in the east, get them trapped there. so they wouldn't be able to help in the fight. in points for the west, such as the capital. this is the very perilous situation that ukraine is facing right now. of course, ukraine outmatched and out gunned, but there's a lot, we don't know how long ukraine can withstand a russian attacks. of course, how much russia is willing to commit to this fight. and what exactly russia's end goals are, whether it's simply to give that separate it's region over to the separatists in for fully as more so than in 2014. if they're looking to split the country entirely between east and west, and of course, if they wa

so when you get to go reports from london, from start to berlin, tokyo and bay root. this is the anger over russia's invasion of ukraine around the world. in london, a crowd outside the prime minister's downing street president, making its demand loud and clear calling for a complete economic isolation of russia. worry that many here have for their families back home. i was talk, my mom called me it was 5 o'clock 4 30 in the morning here. it was top issue was like a rationalist. really did we watch a minute by minute. what's happening that most of them and so far as john represented measures a bit, we've had a 100 russia many have feel that it is too little too late. and while the rest of the maybe shut of ukraine when ukrainians living abroad in from home to some 30000 ukrainians, hundreds gathered outside the russian embassy in paris. singing others shouted for an end. the invasion and many more gathered elsewhere in the city or condemning the assault by like many others around the world, determined to show the solidarity with you. a funny guy. yeah, go al jazeera l

michelle, what are you hearing from from the delegation? what can we expect from these talks with law to be put in a silver lining and contrast to only yesterday because it actually will app. so it was stepping off of that plane and there was news coming through that process and it would send some of it back to back away from the front line. there is no independent, very patient yet, but certainly there's the climate where it appears that tools could make a difference after all, that expectations were never very high in the german delegation that today could bring any kind of breakthrough is also like rejection. when say really is something like a real deadline, a billing and diesel returning on a track to release back with where you mentioned that you're not coming in there. and is it like not with the term inside a presidency that is willing to take with rates that crane to is willing to do its own work to put 3 drop on the table with 4. is that a separate with a well coming? president stressed that to russia had been a reliable energy te

"we demand an end to the war," she says. "we can do it with sanctions. we must isolate the aggressor country, it terrorises the whole world." with russian forces at the gates, some are still fleeing the capital. for now, this city remains in ukrainian hands but the battle may bejust beginning. orla guerin, bbc news, kyiv. western allies have stepped up their response to the invasion, subject russia to its harshest sanctions ever. russia's access to the international payment network swift has been restricted, a move often dubbed a financial nuclear weapon. it makes internati

african countries from india, from many other asian countries. we also hear about people from countries that are, you know, the people who actually were trying to flee to war in other countries. so your men and syria, there is also people right now we are solving the case of for you many boy at the border in america who is trying to pass through. and there have been huge issues and problems to let him actually end to poland. and so i don't know what's exactly the reason i think it's really just an issue of not having ukrainian passport. and i just want to add that, you know, to race in from law at least polish government and polish authorities has been widely known already. we criticize the fact that, you know, the border patrol is actually still operating on the northern i polish bill iris and border and they are still not letting people in and apply for asylum. whereas we are all righty. so allowing the ukrainians fleeing war, you know, enter you without any issues without any problems. this is, this is blanche unfair. i think i cannot speak fo

a fairly well known number from it from the liberal party did come out this morning and break rent with this government on its position on back to mandates and questioned whether they were still scientifically necessary or if they were being politicized. so we haven't really seen a way out of this crisis yet, and the police are frankly admitted. they don't believe that that's necessarily a policing solution to it at all. the c, b, c of your network is reporting that local residents have started to flee the downtown area. they've said that they've been harassed, they've been threats of the violence. is that still going on? i mean, i think lee is perhaps a strong word. what we've seen is people leaving mostly people who have friends, who they can go and stay with outside of the downtown core. the number one complaint really has been that noise because of the constant honking at all hours of the night. and these are not your regular car points. these are truck, big rigs with air points up to 140150 testable. so that's been the main complaint along with fireworks. and so they're having some

so there is a secure supply of gas coming from the region, the book price coming from russia. it will be very hard to put to this option 5. of course tonight, the states are threatening, no history will not exist, but new, nicer states are not concerned with the northeastern germany and the other countries. and they may have another thing you ok thank you for your analysis cheddar madness. never thought of ich professor j politics at the ethic business school in singapore. thank you. thank you. a soldier has been killed in syria, often explosive voice detonated on their military boss in damascus. state tv says 11 others were injured. another army boss was blown up in the capital in october, killing 14 soldiers to europe here now where the parliament has voted for an early n to a 6 months state of emergency. it was declared in november when rebels from the northern garage region was threatening to march on the capital of absence retreated and security has improved. in current as prime minister has invoked emergency power is never used before to end protest against coven 19 rest

we heard from, from a, from putin saying that he recognized the dpr in the elf. we are today, it was more specific. we recognize them according to the 2014 constitution. sure. who sang includes this far larger area of land. and that is also consisted with some of the statements that have been made to day by the respective leaders in the self declared republics. both the dpr and the l. p r. and certainly the leader of the da da da dpr talking to the russian media and asked a question by russian journalist as to whether that could be any kind of expansion and in further into ukrainian territory. and his answer was consistent with what puter was saying was that so, you know, our territory is, according to that 2014 constitution as to how we respond. and he said it's too early for that. and of course, putin has said that, so any kind of military action by the russian military will depend on what happens on the ground. so yeah, the rhetoric has changed somewhat in the lasts of 24 hours, certainly from moscow. that's consistent with the certainly what as a say, the lea

we also heard from the u. s. department spokes person that, that those are words that the us find positive. however, the us expects for their to be visible signs of de escalation from russia as a follow up. and so far that has not come to fruition and i do the meantime. there's also been a, a cool between president barton and u. k. from mr. johnson. tell us about that. that's right. this is among the flory of diplomatic activity that continues to unfold. and according to a white house read out of the conversation, the 2 men reaffirm their support for ukraine sovereignty and the territorial integrity. and they discussed reinforcing nato's defensive posture in eastern europe. how does your culture? thank you very much. indeed. america xena is the how much mit fellow at the german marshall fundy joins us live from berlin. thanks very much for being with us. so ticket to go back to some of the diplomatic moves today. we had the german shots in kid. what do you think he achieved during that visit? well, he made cle

now, 50 years from now. trying to predict the future where the potential threats to the electoral system are going to originate from. host: michael morley joining us from fortis state university. as far as the debate on capitol hill over this, i want to play two bits of sound from yesterday about where various legislators are in this process. i want to start with dick durbin, the senate judiciary committee chairman, talking about these efforts. listen to what he has say. [video clip] >> i would like to put together a bipartisan approach to this. we are trying to protect the integrity of the electoral college vote for the very reason i mentioned earlier, the january 6 assault on the capital by these insurrectionists was an attempt to interrupt this process. the house committee finding last week that there were some alternative false slates being created. that is serious. as far as i'm concerned, that is as close as we can come to insurrection and treason. >> and you addressed that in discussion? >> we do. i a

this is what exactly we heard from the great leader. not stuff from the moment. the decisive moment has come to close once and for all the issue of ukraine's accession to the you are you. i hope that germany and hungary will have the courage to support this decision. now in stark contrast to that, we may remember that on friday the grading president said that he's ready to discuss new troll status for ukraine. so this is a real contradiction for the rushing side. definitely possibly even a red line and we do understand. and again, the experts have been talking about that these are the kinds of statements by key of that could really annoy russia and lead to further action announced by the kremlin rushes military operation is now and its 3rd day that says, condemnation understand me from many western states has hit fever pitch. this sounds is more explosions are reported in ukraine's capital t. f. of these images show what appears to be a motel strike on a residential towel on the outskirts of kip. federal floors have been damaged that some clear so far if there ar

but the biggest sanction of all has provoked or some disunity from, from germany and from it's lee. so this is, this is the idea of, of russia being cut off from the international, a swift financial transaction systems. and exactly, and in fact, if the navy member, sorry, the e u member countries want to proceed on a unified basis. then they have to make sure that all countries are willing to go along and not only germany, but also italy, cyprus and hungary, apparently blocked resorting to that. that mechanism which in fact is referred to often as the nuclear option amongst economic sanctions. cutting off russia from that swift transfer payment system would essentially mean that it would be unable to sell its oil and gas exports because they are often priced in foreign currency. so it would bring the russian economy to its knees, but it would also have significant repercussions on the other side. and particularly for a country like italy, that is even more dependent than germany on imports of russian gas. so once again, we see how this dependence on imports becomes essentially a pol

from 6 pm to 9 pm. this is day 3. this is clearly not going according to plan. that's what every military analyst is telling us. as we look at these pictures on al jazeera, that this is not gone to the schedule that they thought they could dictate and go with part of the reason, according to the military analysts that we've been talking to. part of the reason for that is the russian forces. very, very good. fighting on the countryside, very, very good, a crossing borders. and literally, when it comes to a very badly, very weekly protected border area where russia and bella roost and ukraine came together because there's that sort of triangular apex, where the border comes together up north, which was essentially east of the border with bella. ru swear, bella roost joins russia and it joins ukraine. they're very good at rolling across areas like that. but when they get into urban village town areas, the ukrainians have the home field advantage. and that is the speculation as to why it has taken up until

away from the sport, this is big - from the sport, this is big business, isn't it?erhaps are not as familiar with how important this is in the american psyche — both as a sporting event and is a cultural phenomenon — just talk us through, what's the appeal here? of the whole game or the advertisements themselves? of the whole game, and the fact that people are willing to spend so much money. it goes hand—in—hand having that 100 million person audience, and this is the debut of so many spots. there's staples like beer companies and soda companies, and then you see new people on the scene, and even the ratings of the commercials, that's big business in and of itself, and then you mentioned the half—time act, and of the hundred million people, say, 30 million are really into the football part, the rest of them, probably the majority, are there for all the side stuff. melissa jacobson they're speaking to me a little earlier about that big sporting spectacle —— melissa jacobs, speaking. north korean state tv has shown the country's leader kim jong—un attending what it sa

mission from molly. the statement comes ahead of a rare summit of african union and european union leaders. the french with brawl could have knock on effects, all other foreign troop deployment in molly, and the why the saw held. also on the program, russia publishes more images of what it says of times. returning from drills on the border with ukraine, bought us satellite images, show more troops and equipment being deployed to the reach and at the bay ging winter olympics will join the canadian celebrations on the ice as national pride is restored. ah, i'm good, have others? well come to the program, france has announced that it will withdraw its troops from marlyn, ending a 9 year mission against islamist militants, a joint statement by france. it's european partners and canada said, and he, terrell operations in the western african nation would seize by june. the issue is likely to dominate a red summit between the african union and the european union in brussels to day w, jack park has more on the s

the previous question was from italia. -- from natalia. we will go in the order we started and i request people take no more than two minutes for final remarks. so, go. >> we were surprised with the unity in the west. when they were meeting and came up with a strong position. the 30 members of nato, just one position critical of russia's actions. that could change of russia indeed moves in with some invasion that could actually break the west little bit, but we have seen so far is interesting. and many other initiatives. i would hope they would not undermine the unifying, coherent position on the west, but poland, great britain, macron. there are many things going on. apparently everyone in the west is kind of awakened to this necessity to stop russia and help ukraine. and that might produce some disunity and different plans, but so far, ukrainians are pleased to see that we are not thrown under the bus. >> terrific. thank you. >> briefly, on the question of ukrainian ministries, the usb and interior minister have little credibility in ukr

many memories from his childhood come up. this way, the m main seen him out of arrow share is he to which had 2014 miles. but it's $40000.00 people at that time. up until now. greek cypriot property owners like andreas lord, those are being referred to a commission set up by the turkish authorities to examine claims for compensation. that's not enough for lord o's. he wants to go back the sooner the better is very important news. he's an island of willis and a 1000000 people. we all know whose house is these ira and they know because the north is in control of the land registry documents as well. and so from there it is a matter of goodwin and if god willing, so what will be homes? one? andreas lord knows his wishes that his home town will also be a home to turkish cypriots. and that rosa can contribute to the reconciliation of all of cyprus. ah ah, ah ah ah ah, who have you ever seen iran like me explore the plays of the photo dave the place where millions of people will make a pilgrimage. and the training grounds for the co

financial support that has happened from some european countries that happened from the u. s. i think others are discussing it and discussing what moves they can make . lucas is an emerett as professor at the university of birmingham, and she says that the sanctions being placed on russia will destroy its economy. well, the u. s. posture as well as i think you have to make it an international posture. european union, various european states, canada, australia. japan is 2 fold. one is you give as much support as as possible right now to the ukranian government. recognizing the fundamental ones, which is that the russians are now buildings as well as attacking other cities. i think if we move to a new phase of what we're talking about in this attempted russian occupation of ukraine. what you may see is the move of those who went ski government to the west of ukraine to live, for example. which of course is closer to areas like poland, which makes it easier for us and europe to give support. that includes political support and of course military support through defense of weapons
