well, days ago i spent some time in maryville and. busy i saw the fighting, that was still raging. variable is just a hot bed, right. and now there's reports that even snow and some of the destroyed apartment building that the as all the tell you was using is patients. some are still on the roofs. you've been in the areas that are somewhat controlled by dpr and russia. at this point there is fighting in the street still happening, but back here in done yet, i was in variable back done yet now. and we're going to have to see how this situation developed here is done yet in the surrounding areas. because when this started weeks ago, a lot of the local here and there was going to be a big push to make the front line go farther away from done yet to make the city itself more of a safer environment. that didn't happen. as many was expected right away, but now it seems like there, there is more activity going on which includes the russian air force, the more actively involved around john. yes. now you're going to have to see how these, thes

that 9 for us in the ukranian capital, kiva instep hasn't been any further action to the events in maryville. well, of course, huge condemnation about what happened to the mario ball, and this is not the 1st hospital that's been hit by russian bombard, bombardments. and it's also not the 1st children's hospital and the president followed him as lensky lashed out on twitter against it. and i will read what he, what he wrote, how long will it will be an accomplice, ignoring, or close to sky right now, you have the power, but you seem to be losing you, manatee. and he's basically of course, directing his words to the west to europe, who he accuses off standing by and watching while his country is being bombarded. every single new air strikes basically makes europe losing face, and that's how ukrainians see it. here. mario paul has of course, taking a really huge, told during this war, more than a 1000 people have died or even before the strike on the maternity hospital. nearly 50 people were buried in a mass grave. and tell us what's happening. know where you are in the capital. well, in extrem

and so many, many information that exists as to the future provocations in maryville and some other territories where ukrainians are trying to use civilians as a live shield. just talk to the indians. arabs africans are trying to leave ukraine. they're not, they're not allowed to leave just yesterday, the prime minister of india. oh, it's a talking to the president of russia and extras his concern about the urban indians to the saga ever of is the russian foreign minister taking what we think might be prepared questions, but certainly from international journalists, most of them coming from the united states, they're echoing what he told al jazeera though in an interview that saving world war 3, a summer calling at a potential for world war 3 could be a nuclear issue, but very much deflecting. and i, the issue in saying, actually it is the provocation of countries like france, the u. k. in the u. s, which is the real issue. he called everything he called, it histrionics from the united states saying it's like a hollywood movie detection, with the absolute good and absolute evil and ongoing news

we have repeatedly stated that medical institutions in maryville stopped their regular work at the end of february. all staff and patients were dispersed by the nationalists, the hospital building duties advantageous tactical location close to the city center has been converted into a stronghold of the as of national battalion. photos of the hospital ground contain evidence of 2 separate staged explosions near the hospital. the nature of the external and internal damage to the building may mislead the mass nonprofessional audience in europe and the usa for which this production was made, but not experts. i would like to emphasize that all these and other war crimes in marielle, paul are committed by the raiders locked up in the city. we have repeatedly warned that as the ring around them shrinks, number of nazi provocations will increase. they have no where to run from. there are going to me of the game of me mouth. the 1st piece talks between rationing ukrainian foreign minister had ended in the turkish capital. with no major breakthrough, the gale evolve outlined moscow's main goals.

but agency that describing the situation in maryville as apocalyptic. in fact, the international committee for the red cross, they said that people are terrified and traumatized temperatures. drop, who are below 0 at night, and people are sheltering in basements, the heat it. so the situation continues to be very, very difficult for the $400000.00 and the so residents of the city. now we also heard yesterday that the number of dead red residence is now 2500. but the city is still under ukrainian control, or they'll have been image of the russian tanks on the streets. but the russians still don't have full control of my report. but this fil a 10th by the ukrainians to try and get a into that city now. they've been trying for the last week and a half. the haven't managed to do it yesterday. and a convoy again attempted and they didn't make it again. they're going to try today, but the russians have said that 450 tons of humanitarian aid has been delivered to that 50. and again, there are 2 different narratives here, both sides. they mean each other for th

in maryville. yes. and they're still continued fighting and ethan ukraine where you are. can you outline for us where the flash points are currently such as to the north of us, is the city of hart gave. it's the 2nd largest city in ukraine. the population was around 1500000. many people have left now that's had continued, continued bombardment. it's been shelled as visiting air strikes and cruise missiles have hit that city now. the fighting continues to take pace, their russian forces. troy have tried to enter or but the ukraine forces have managed to keep them out. so that's continued there. oh, yeah. we've had in cipher reach or to the south of us that were there's a train station, those hit by missiles or, and even harrington ne pro, yesterday, there was a massage, a hit the airport. now what's happening here is that russia are fighting on multiple fronts and even areas or cities are seen as relatively quiet, or are sometimes being hit. now what that means is that people here just don't know what's going to happen next, where rich city is going to be hit next or, and

and after the aid organizations for the at the authorities in maryville, that is a real concern because there simply isn't enough humanitarian aid coming into the city. we are seeing of, of pictures and video being released by the russian side ship pictures of the soldiers of chechen soldiers and so on, helping civilians passing out some aid. but clearly, if a humanitarian developing humanitarian crisis like this is to be dealt with this, it has to be simply far more shantarian help getting it. all right, thanks so much, rob mc ride there. now the front line, city of hard give, has been continuously targeted since the start of the war. there's a desperate search for survivors. the ruins of buildings. i said bag reports from ne ukraine. well, this is one, the worst hitch areas of hurricane. the 2nd largest city in ukraine had a population of 1500000 that's been drastically reduced because many people have left. now this to the left of me here was a shopping mall. just take a look at that. now. this city has been pounded by the russians with air strikes, shelling and artillery, and were s

the 1st this report from bernard smith in the russian controlled area of northern maryville. there's not much left to fight for in marielle paul. but the sound of shelling is constant. no one flinches. after 4 weeks of this, they used to it. this part of this port city is now russian control, and some people are relieved about that. florida might be confused if the russians, they would say starting with why would you be unhappy that the red light dunbar that hit that will scare the they didn't. dumbass is russian speaking, ukraine was depressing us with their language. we launched at 1st no problem, but then there was too much pressure. and then in 2013, the as of brigade came and it was chaos. the russians say this city has been destroyed because they, as of a group with neo nazi sympathies, won't surrender. the battalion is integrated into ukraine's national guard with has some autonomy. the presence here was one of vladimir putin is justifications for launching what he calls a special military operation. ukraine says russia was just looking for an excuse to invade. marapoo
