and i myself as a reporter, for example, travelling to the north east of ukraine and being very closeont line, i felt this, i saw this. it's a really critical moment in this war. president biden says that avdiivka fell because the republican party in congress wouldn't give the ukrainians the money and the weapons. is that the view there? this is about the military aid to ukraine, which is urgently needed to provide the ukrainian army with artillery shells and other types of weapons. many, many different sources from the military that i can rely on, they all unanimously said that in general, they had to fire one shell to five, four, or sometimes even bigger number of shells from the russian side. will this defeat increase the divisions — political divisions and in in military terms — at the top of government in ukraine? it's the critical moment in the ukrainian politics, too. and an open question whether the solidarity, the unity, one voice actions and one voice positions that we've seen at the beginning of the war, they still will be possible for ukrainian politicians coming from diff

of ukraine. one of the cities to suffer the most has been kharkiv in the north—east.led and those who have remained have had to take drastic action is to keep some sense of normality, including the creation of underground schools. for more, here is our eastern european correspondence sarah rainsford. at the beginning of this war, kharkiv was a city i visited when it was being shelled very heavily. there were tens of thousands of people living underground at the time, the metro was a shelter for many people and we saw old people living on train carriages and children sleeping platforms. some months later russian forces were forced back from kharkiv, unable to take the city, and ukraine was in control of the region again. life began to be easier and people began to breathe there again. in recent days there has been an intensification of missile attacks on kharkiv and around ten days ago there was a huge wave of attacks in which 11 people were killed in their homes. because kharkiv is so close to the russian border, it's extremely difficult for any kind of air defences t

two year's this month since russia's full—scale invasion of ukraine, and one of the cities which has suffered most is kharkiv, in the north—easting to maintain some semblance of normality, including setting up underground schools. in this special report, our correspondent sarah rainsford has met the children who are living on the front line. russia's war has transformed everything in kharkiv, including childhood. nika hasn't been to kindergarten for two years because of the missile threats. her own neighborhood is shattered. so parts of life in her city are moving underground. alongside the metro platform, there are now classrooms full of children, safe here from any explosions. the staff work hard to make it seem normal. and nika loves every minute. it's the first chance many have had for months just to play together and be children again. olha talks a lot about kharkiv�*s strength and resilience. but that doesn't stop her being scared for her daughters. translation: it's | better underground. it's safe. a child can continue with a more or less normal life in these conditions. the parents won't worry and the enemy won't get u

in the north of ukraine, the weather will be fresher, but also without precipitation, also with the sun, from 8 to 11, from 8 to 12 degrees of heat. in the east kharkiv oblast, luhansk oblast, donetsk oblast, the air temperature will be the lowest, because there at night... it will be somewhere around -2-5°, during the day +6 +8, which is also not bad. it will hold in the central part of ukraine anti-cyclonic nature of the weather, increased atmospheric pressure, it is cold at night, close to zero, maybe even small minuses somewhere, for example, in poltava oblast or in the dnipro and districts, but during the day, as you can see, +8 +12° almost everywhere. in the southern part of ukraine, the air temperature will also be quite high. +10 +12 +10 +13° in the crimea to 14-15° heat. no precipitation is expected, there will be lots and lots of sun in the southern part of ukraine tomorrow. well, dry, sunny weather is expected in kyiv on march 1. the maximum air temperature will fluctuate close to 10-11° of heat, moderate south-easterly wind.

east of ukraine. yes, our defenders are training to defend the borders in the north. shot. rs of the armed forces of ukraine, together with border guards, national guards and the security service, conducted exercises close to real combat operations. the goal is to repel the invaders in the event of a repeated invasion attempt from the north of the country. we will be born. we are considering one of the options for actions against the sabotage reserve during special measures to search for and eliminate sabotage and reconnaissance groups of the enemy. as we can see in our diagram, these are groups covering the borders of the state border, covering groups that are posted at the borders in separate directions and covering groups that cover the rear directions. not only infantry and armored vehicles were involved in complex exercises. equipment, but also powerful cannons, a cannon, a shot, it worked wonders in general, but we practiced well on it, and we helped out the battalion that was standing in positions, it was able to successfully and hit the enemy’s fortifications, these

seized crimea, but it's in 2022 that putin sent in hundreds of thousands of soldiers to attack ukraine from the north, from the east and to occupy 20% of ukraine's land. many predicted ukraine would fall within a matter of days, yet they still fight on bravely today, showing what is possible with faith and persistence, determination, and perseverance, and the support of 50 countries from around the world. our president has assembled add remarkable coalition and together they have contributed more than we have to ukraine's security and defense. i was in europe hat a conference just a few weeks ago. i traveled with my friend and colleague, republican senator rounds. we went to poland, sleigh vaqqia and to this -- slow backia and to this conference. i had the chaens to meet with president zelenskyy, his defense minister to hear about how their economy is reviving, how they're exporting more grain now than they did before the war, how with american investments through usaid they've brought critical parteds of their -- parts of their economy back. but i already heard without these funds, without the munitions, without t

him: we cannot wait for a second pearl harbor of russia in the south, north, east and to the west russia will not stop itself, it must be stopped in ukraine. the president of georgia, salome zurabishvili, said this in an interview with the german agency deutsche. agency on the sidelines of the munich security conference. according to her, if volodymyr putin is not defeated in ukraine, he can to go on and do whatever he wants. therefore, mrs. president saloma zorobishvili called for further support for ukraine, adding that it is much easier to support ukraine today than to wage a major war in europe tomorrow. here is a short quote from her. so if we don't want to end up in a much worse situation at the next munich security conference, or in a few... years, the necessary decisions must be made now. i really hope that calls like the one made by the minister of foreign affairs of lithuania, the president of georgia, the leaders are listening, not only are they listening, but the leaders of all the countries of the world are listening. and i can, i know that there is no time, but i will be very brief, and with everything, let's say, india boug

stunning to look back at all of that and to remember the brutal beginnings as russia attacked from the north, from the east and from the south. all around the country of ukraine. so in response, the biden administration today said they're unleashing 500 new targets of sanctions in russia. that's the response. brett velicovich that spends a lot of time in ukraine and has seen all of this from the front lines and also benjamin hall who has seen it from the front lines as well. he suffered a near fatal injury in 2022 while in kyiv. first, let's go to the white house response. reporting from there with jacqui heinrich. hi, jacqui. >> critics says today's sanctions are more bark than bite. more than 500 targets were sanctioned. also russia's defense sector and this network of back door entities that it has leaned on to evade u.s. sanctions. the package did not designate russia as state sponsor of terrorism, which senator lindsey graham has been calling for. he tweeted these new so-called crushing sanctions will fail to deliver the intended results of making russia a no-go zone. doing business with the state sponsor of terrorism comes at a heavy price. everything e
