putin might come off as a solitary
figure but he is surrounded by his
deeply loyal entourage let's take a
closer look at russian president
vladimir putin's closest associates
nikolai patricia he is the head of
russia's security council after the
collapse of the soviet union patrochev
continued to work in the security
services from 1992 to 94 since 2008
battleship has been secretary of the
security council of russia a
consultative body of the president that
works out his decisions on national
security affairs
sergey lavrov is another person from his
trusted inner circle he is russia's
foreign minister for the last 18 years
he is russia's senior most diplomat
playing a big role in russia's decision
making vladimir madinski vladimir
madinsky is russia's former culture
minister and currently putin's
presidential aid the weight of peace
talk fell on his shoulders and he is the
bridge now between ukraine and russia's
delegation and that's why hopes are
pained on ladamir madinski russia's
chief negotiator for peace talks with
ukraine yuri kowalczyk a russian
oligarch and putin's unofficial closed
confidant with a net worth of 1.8
billion dollars his pocket seems quite
heavy putin and him share houses in the
same cooperative and once putin became
the president his career skyrocketed
kowalczyk is now the largest shareholder
of rossiya bank and has a large stake in
sega's insurance company alexander
botnikov is the longtime head of
russia's all-powerful russian federal
security service which is the main
successor organization to the soviet kgb
botany cove is perhaps the most loyal
and trustworthy of putin's aids some say
that botnikov's federal security service
is both the brain and the heart of
putin's regime sergey nareshkay is
director of svr russia's foreign
intelligence agency he has long shadowed
putin following him since the 90s and
then in his office in 2004 he also
claims to be a close aide in helping the
president consolidate his actions with
ideological grounds anton weino is the
chief of staff of the presidential
executive office why not join the
russian presidential protocol
directorate in 2002 wyno was put on the
european union sanctions list for
actively supporting and implementing
actions and policies that undermine and
threaten the territorial integrity
sovereignty and independence of ukraine
as well as the stability or security in
ukraine sergey shoigu has been russia's
minister of defense since 2012. this is
a man who goes on hunting and fishing
trips with the president to serbia and
he has in the past been viewed as a
potential successor as well valerie
gerasimov currently is serving as the
chief of the general staff and an
experienced military strategist he
served in the armored divisions of the
red army throughout the former soviet
union jerusalem's claim to fame was that

filled to its 81 000 capacity to
celebrate eight years since the
annexation of crimea or as it's called
here the reunification
and everywhere the zed the sign that
first appeared on russian military
vehicles in ukraine and has now become a
symbol of support for russia's war there
it was a stage set for vladimir putin
who told the crowd that the united
states is using ukraine to threaten
russia he's had the soldiers fighting
their illustrated russian unity

other support each other

rajesh is joining us live from kiev
bringing us up to speed with the very
latest developments rajesh what are the
top developments that this are
see uh the the city of kiev has not
witnessed
any kind of air attacks now for a fourth
consecutive night fourth consecutive day
but the fighting in the east and south
of ukraine continues unabated there have
been reports of fightings near kharsan
near kharkiv and now near odessa where
it is anticipated that russians could
launch an amphibious operation anytime
let me explain what an amphibious
operation is for the viewers
amphibious operation is a military
operation in which the troops like they
have marines in america that troops are
transported through ships and they make
landings on the beach or on the on the
court near the sea and they launch a
ground offensive so amphibious operation
is expected any time by ukraine forces
in the port city of odessa over to you
you know you mentioned that kiev is a
little calm at the moment but there are
some other areas that are not calm so
what exactly is it going on when what is
the kind of offensive that those areas
are facing and are is the ukrainian
resistance being able to hold up to the
russian offensive in those areas all
right let me show you around a little
bit how the city of kiev looks like and
i'll keep explaining to you what is
happening in the rest of ukraine so this
is the
cave city and the center of the city
this is how it looks right now totally
calm a few cars around only from
military personnel these are the
journalists international journalists
leaving the city now and it's total calm
everywhere only military personnel and
police personnel around as far as
offensive in the east is concerned
ground operations are going on in all
these cities and now we are witnessing
counter attacks by the ukrainian forces
in east of ukraine especially in the
area of donais maria paul and kharsal
besides this airstrikes in west of
ukraine are continuing unabated over to
you
and you know if you can just talk a
little about what's happening with the
peace talks also you had zielinski made
that speech on a video conference to the
british parliament as well where he also
somewhere uh mentioned that he's willing
to compromise on not becoming a part of
the nato as well if you could bring our
viewers up to speed with those
developments too
look uh president zielinski has been
making appeals to the nato countries and
the western countries to enforce a
no-fly zone over ukraine or to provide
him some aircrafts which have both these
demands have been denied by the
countries and they made it very clear
that ukraine will not be admitted into
nato anytime soon so what mr zelensky is
saying is basically what he's been
forced to say he has no choice even if
he wants to join he cannot join nato he
also addressed swiss
leaders yesterday
and the reason for which ic is in the
background is that almost 120 billion
dollars of russian assets are in swiss
banks which probably russia is seeking
now to continue this war and it is
understood that probably mr zielinski is
trying somehow to get those assets
freezed
over to you
absolutely and in terms of ukraine
losing sizable territories which ones
would they be because this is the re
probably one of the reasons why now
zelensky is willing to agree and
compromise on these terms because how
long can one even go on in the face of
russian invasion
very true like in east and south of
ukraine if you see russian forces are
making territorial gains every day they
are advancing forward westwards towards
never ever nipro and what my
understanding is russian ground forces
will try their best to capture as much
territory as possible along the black
sea coast to end towards river nipro
whereas in the west they'll continue to
do airstrikes to maintain pressure and
now because the casualties mounting
casualties of civilians damage to
civilian infrastructure now and
the ability to sustain war by ukraine
forces all these factors are somehow
a reason in mr zelink is now us often
stand towards talks and towards not
joining nato and even to talk on other
contentious issues with russian leaders
over to you right rajesh you stay safe
we are going to keep coming back to you
he is uh the war reporter who's been
risking his life and getting us all
these
reports of everything as it happens in
ukraine continue to be with us right
there russia and ukraine trade charges
accusing each other of genocide under
global pressure russia plays victim
alleges war crime by ukraine in the
donetsk region putin has also accused
the west of doublespeak here's a report
a day after ukraine and its allies
accused vladimir putin of war crimes
russia is hurling the same charge at
kiev
russia is calling a missile attack by
ukraine on breakaway region donetsk a
war crime
moscow claims the torchhigh u missile
fired by ukrainian forces landed in a
residential area killing 20 people
earlier russian forces had destroyed a
theater in mario pole sheltering
hundreds of civilians the attack sparked
global outrage keeve accused moscow of
genocide
the series of charges and counter
charges continue
the russian foreign minister has claimed
the u.s has created several biological
laboratories across countries including
ukraine
those laboratories are created a being
have been created by the united states
all over the world more than 300
laboratories in
various countries many of them
uh on the perimeter of the russian
federation and the former soviet
republics including ukraine ukraine is
probably
the biggest project
for the pentagon
russia has threatened to target any
cargo moving into ukrainian territory
which they might believe are biological
weapons
any any uh
cargo
moving into ukrainian territory
which
we
would believe uh is carrying weapons
would be a fair game
and
i mean this this is clear
because we are
implementing the operation the goal of
which is to remove any threat to the
russian federation coming from the
ukrainian soil
moscow is demanding security guarantees
that will be common for russia ukraine
and all of europe as part of a
compromise
with russia changing goalposts an early
breakthrough in talks looks unlikely
bureau report india today a toy version
of ukrainian presidency made by a small
suburban chicago toy company has made a
big impact to the tune of one lakh forty
five thousand
dollars or 145 thousand dollars citizen
bricks started making unofficial lego
figurines of zelinski to raise money for
the ukrainian people after the russian
invasion started last month here's the
detail for the russian invasion started
last month a toy version of ukrainian
president vladimir zelinsky made by a
small suburban chicago toy company has
made a big impact to the tune of 145
thousand dollars
based in naperville illinois citizen
brick started making unofficial lego
figurines of zelinski to raise money for
the ukrainian people after the russian
invasion started last month we make a
lot of these parts by hand owner joe
troopia says what started out as a
simple fundraising idea quickly
ballooned into something much bigger
having sold out the first batch of them
kind of immediately but to people we
knew kind of kind of our regular
customers we kind of thought we were
done with it and then all of a sudden
started getting
pings on the phone and we saw that it
was being
reproduced uh
on the ukrainian instagram page which
was kind of a shock and suddenly we were
getting a lot of
followers from instagram from ukraine
and people messaging us and
it was kind of overwhelming
the zielinski figurine sold for 100 each
while a molotov cocktail figurine
decorated with the ukrainian flag went
for 20 dollars trippia says the funds
from citizen bricks sales will go to
direct relief a charity that claims to
have sent over 30 tons of medical aid to
ukraine we've had a lot of contact with
people in ukraine which is surprising
you know
that
they have the time and the kind of
mind to contact us and say thanks which
is very humbling
and that kind of we keep that in front
of our minds when we're trying to do
something like this
russia has defended its military
activity in ukraine as a special
operation aimed at demilitarizing and
denotifying its neighbor
let's live into a very short commercial
break when we return haunting images on

when it's the world's biggest news story
there's only one gold standard of
journalism
[Music]
would you share your home address if you
knew your life was in danger well that
would be usually someone's normal
response except for ukrainian president
vladimir zelinsky who did quite the
opposite have a look here as to how he's
spelling out his address despite
surviving three assassination attempts
the assassination plans were thwarted
after anti-war russians leaked intel to
ukraine and guess what this information
came from russia's federal security
service who by the looks of it does not
want blood on their hands at least now
coming back to zilenski who was behind
the assassination attempts one is a
kremlin-backed wagner group who were
behind two of the three attacks and the
others are shechen's special forces
zelensky dodged this one when an attempt
was made by them on the outskirts of
kiev and if this happens fingers will
obviously be pointed at moscow and if
the assassination succeeds ukraine will
be under dismay with its head of state
gone so in case ukraine's charismatic
leader is taken out the ukraine
government has a contingency plan in
place
[Music]
although the plan was not spelt out for
obvious reasons ukrainians will ensure
that there is continuity of the
government one way or the other this
news comes after united states secretary
of state anthony blinken had said and i
quote the ukrainians have plans in place
that i'm not going to talk about or get
into any details on to make sure that
there is what we would call continuity
of government one way or the other and
let me leave it at that zilenski has
been on the front lines never been
behind any covers but his leadership
nonetheless has been instrumental in
inspiring ukrainians to fight back
although a plan is in place his
departure would surely cause panic and
demotivate ukrainians moreover there
might be russian-backed lobbying of
placing a pro-russian leader victor
yanukovych in place viktor yanukovych is
a controversial figure and former
president of ukraine who was ousted from
ukraine in 2014. he took refuge in
russia after he was found guilty of
treason by a ukrainian court the
possibilities are only endless and
moscow will leave no stone unturned to
get their demands met even if it means
to be manufactured through assassination

by swift severe and crippling sanctions
from the united states the united
kingdom and the european union
[Music]
now big tech giants are joining the
fight against russian aggression by
updating their terms to do business with
the country the world's five leading
tech companies google apple meta twitter
and amazon are imposing significant
sanctions on russia
social media giants meta twitter by
dance tick tock have come under immense
pressure to curb the spread of
misinformation
metta has removed access to russia today
and sputnik on both facebook and
instagram it has also removed the option
for state media to monetize content on
any of its platforms forcing the kremlin
to ban the social media giant
tech giant google has limited the use of
google pay in russia for customers using
a sanctioned bank it has also stopped
selling online advertising in russia
besides banning russia today and sputnik
in europe
apple has suspended all product sales in
russia and has limited apple pay and

european union sanctions on russia
state-affiliated media russia today and
sputnik
youtube has banned the russian state

other tech companies taking a stern
stance on russia on netflix and amazon
netflix has temporarily stopped future
projects and acquisitions in russia
while tech companies are working
together to introduce measures to curb
russian expansionism the war has also
brought focus on cryptocurrencies the
ukrainian government has appealed on
twitter for cryptocurrency donations
ukraine's vice prime minister recently
tweeted the wallet address for donations
he also urged crypto exchanges to block
the addresses of russian users in kiev
cryptocurrencies are helping fund
ukraine's resistance against the russian
invasion but russia may use them to
mitigate the impact of crippling
economic sanctions imposed by the west
as long as you know the shop owner or
their son or their daughter
um has the capability to take in
cryptocurrency payments but the breadth
of
um crypto adoption in ukraine is really
an important factor here
while the overwhelming impact of the
sanctions imposed by big tech companies
on russia will only be evident in the
coming months cryptocurrencies will
provide an alternative to both ukraine

a great honor for us here at the india

as a long-standing observer and fan
of the longest concurrent reigning
heavyweight champion of the world who
has now taken his gloves off to pick up
body armor and a weapon to stand guard
for his country as a citizen soldier
vladimir klitschko welcome thank you for
being with us here on india today
vladimir kiev has been surrounded and
even as talks are on russian aggression
and advancements continue in the city
that you're in you've been sending
videos out of there russia claims that
it is only targeting military
establishments but the videos that
you've been sending out suggest
otherwise
whatever russia is claiming
for instance
foreign minister lavrov
at the first meeting with the ukrainians
publicly said that russia is not
interested
of attacking
any country
and
never attacked ukraine
that was a lie
russia is
saying that they're fighting
against nazis
we have president of the country
with jewish roots
so it's a lie
they're trying to
say
that they're saving the russian world in
ukraine
there are
ukrainians
with russian roots
half of my blood is russian
and we're not welcoming any army
any military boots and equipment on our
soil
our serenity and serenity of our borders
and international law has been broken by
russia
and that's why russian propaganda
is confirming and saying that ukraine is
just the beginning so
there are other countries
as well as in danger as
ukraine
and that only military objects are gonna
be attacked it's another lie
as propagandas lie
because kharkiv
districts of city of kharkiv been
destroyed by cluster bombing
people the residents
were killed
cities that are satellite cities of the
capital of ukraine as bucha gaston
fastif
yes or in ash
civilians were killed
cities destroyed infrastructure is
destroyed mariupol in the south of the
country just yesterday where up to 1 000
innocent
men women and elderly
and children were hiding at the theater
the theater was bombed precisely by
russian air force bombed
thankfully
that
there was shelter in the ground
underground of the building and people
are getting digged out now
so it's it seems like yeah they are
alive
but that has nothing to do a theater in
city of mariopol which has been
destroyed 90 percent now
so whatever is coming out of russia is a
complete lie
and vladimir we have been you know
covering uh what's happened in mario
paul and kharkiv and the others our
channel has reporters in all of those
cities so we've been bringing our
viewers first-hand reports of that but
you know you've picked up a weapon the
ukrainian military is being supplied by
other nations there are more missiles
coming in your country has asked for a
no-fly zone from nato which has happened
hasn't happened just yet what is the
overall military plan vladimir you're
not a soldier but you've picked up a
weapon as part of the territorial
defense what in your view is the overall
plan to defend ukraine
we will take care of ourselves
we need
military aid
and equipment to defend ourselves
ukraine is the most peaceful nation in
all the years we never attacked anyone
and we will defend ourselves
we need
military aid
we will take care of ourselves
and
what our partners and allies and this is
most of the world needs to sanction
russia isolate economically russia
because every
cent
that russia is getting
are used to buy more weapons more
rockets more bullets to kill us
ukrainians and i'm afraid to say we are
not just one nation they're gonna be
destroyed like we are now
they're going to be our countries if
this
war is not going to be stopped
vladimir you know the
while all of this is happening the
international court of justice uh you
know had an order which was quite clear
that russia should suspend military
operations uh you know and support to
armed outfits but has there been any
headway you've been out there on the
ground your brother vitali klitschko is
the mayor of cave
how are you seeing that has any of this
actually stopped has that verdict by the
international code of justice had any
effect at all
while we're speaking
there are fights going on
there is nothing
that
now
is going towards the peace in the
country
russian
boats military equipment
soldiers must leave ukrainian soil
must live and stop this war now
we will lose more life
this event that is happening now
is going to lead to humanitarian
catastrophic event
they're going to be consequences no
matter what going to be consequences for
this reckless
senseless war
and start of it
and eventually
as we know all the wars
eventually will come to an end this end
must come sooner than later yeah and
only with the international community we
can stop russian aggression
and better to stop it as soon as
possible you know while you know while
those talks of ceasefires have happened
there have been you know multiple
limited ceasefires vladimir across your
country the russian foreign minister
lavrov says that both sides could be
coming to some kind of an understanding
about ukraine as a neutral state like
that of austria or sweden
as you know is a neutral state status
acceptable to keeve is it acceptable to
you
i don't have political office behind me
and i'm not representing any i'm not a
politician even yes my brother is mayor
of city of keep cave in the capital
whatever decision is going to be made
that's going to be afterwards but this
war must be stopped now
and then
everything else is coming out to a
conclusion
but now
one more time while i was speaking there
are
getting human lives lost
that must be stopped now this war must
stop now russian army must go home
and leave ukrainian soil
vladimir you know despite all the calls
for a no-fly zone uh you know the nato
has not paid heed to president
zielinski's request that has been made
practically every day since this entire
invasion began uh you know the mario
pole theater bombing that you were
talking about was an airstrike it
appears that even though your country
has been managed to shoot down lots of
russian aircraft and helicopters uh this
one big demand by ukraine has not been
met by nato
do you feel as a ukrainian do you feel
let down by nato because there is a
sense of betrayal and having you know
been left in the lurch by nato in this
crisis
there is no fly zone yet and we know
what we're going to take care of
ourselves and going to make our own flat
no-fly zone we just need america we just
need in this case our allies
military equipment we're going to take
care of ourselves and going to take care
of our sky and they're gonna take care
of everything that we have in the
country we have enough manpower
we can do it what we need is the
equipment what we need humanitarian help
military equipment in this case military
and we need humanitarian help because we
are getting close
to complete destruction and an event
that is not going to be good
for all the civilians in the country and
this is going to be
very dangerous for the rest of the world
we need to stop this world now
and in many ways you know the damage in
so many ways is piling up with each
passing minute with each passing hour uh
you know vladimir you and i are now
talking 23 days into this entire
invasion
is there a sense that there has been a
strategic miscalculation
somehow to have taken on russia without
complete assurance of you know a
military intervention by the west
because it looks like even though you're
getting all these weapons the sanctions
are being filed up against russia but
the actual help that ukraine is asking
for is not coming
it's not just the west
it's just
a complete mistake
what russia has started this war
and
russia has
is lying to its own people in russia
soldiers that has been
captured
don't know why even they need this war
yeah there are no
nationalist nazis in this country
we are progressive country we are
free country
we're our
country that has been developed
since the soviet union broke apart but
only
imperialistic ambitious
made this one mad man in moscow attack
ukraine
and start this senseless war
there is no miscalculation it's just
madness
madness to start it and the consequence
is going to be severe
for all the parties involved including
mostly russia
and you know that so-called
denudification has been one of the
things that putin talked about when he
started this war referring of course to
the azov battalion and other militias
perhaps that uh you know have neo-nazi
complexions to them but putting that
aside for the moment i want to focus
vladimir on nato because uh you know 23
days into this invasion it appears that
unless there is more material
involvement from the outside uh you know
it's it's this this has become a
grinding war it's not a lightning war
that putin is waging perhaps he
miscalculated like you said uh you know
the strength of the ukrainian forces but
particularly the united states which you
know you've spent so much time in the
u.s they appear to be silent spectators
as russia continues its aggression that
has led to the death of so many
ukrainians of course there have been
sanctions but very little else
listen there is
international law
there is nato ukraine was not nato
nato cannot get on the ukrainian soil
there is a lot that has been broken
international law has been broken i
repeat it one more time after second
world war and after ukraine gave up
nooks nuclear weapons for serenity of
our borders
we gave up nuclear weapons for serenity
of our borders
we did it we signed the contract
including russia and other countries
this
law international law
broke by the attack of russian army
the ukrainian
and this
is going to have consequences and it
will happen but first and mostly
important we're not going to get into
further discussion with nate and
everything else
we need to stop we must stop this war we
i'm saying the world
must watching what
is happening now and
actively not passively watching but
actively stopping and helping us to stop
the russian army stop the invasion
and get the heck out
of our land
you know the the russian armed forces uh
you know i'm going to repeat this again
vladimir because it appears that they
wanted to achieve more in a smaller
period of time they may have
underestimated the level of air defense
in ukraine uh the you know the kind of
anti-tank weaponry that you're
continuing to get from uh the us and
nato at this point of time uh you know
you you consistently talk about the
consequences for putin and for russia
this has become a grinding war a slow
war where they're trying to encircle
kiev but
as we discuss all of these like you
rightly pointed out out there the
fighting is still on it's not ended
despite everything that's happened
there's a huge amount of damage what is
your estimate you've seen on the
outskirts of kiev what has happened
through your networks what kind of
damage has done been done so far to
lives and property in ukraine we do know
that the ukrainian government has made
very large claims of damage to the
russian side as well
hey listen
there's
everything going to be revealed
everything
what we cannot
get back
is the lost life
there are civilians and they
see and stress it out one more time
civilians children
are getting killed by the russian army
children
innocent men women
and elderly
that is not threat to anyone in this
world getting killed
brutally
killed
decapitated
lost their limbs
lost their life
is it not enough
to act together and stop this senseless
war
what else must happen
we have
nuclear power plants
in ukraine there are four of them
with even more and multiple reactors and
one of them due to russian aggression
was on fire a couple of days ago
we are talking if any of the rockets
that already landed
thousands or more than thousand rockets
russian rockets landed on ukrainian soil
and one of them
started the fire
on the nuclear power plant
if nuclear power plants gonna explode
they're big it's gonna be fukushima and
chernobyl can bite in multiple times
it's going to be disaster
how long this world is going to watch
and not stop russia
21 days we've been fighting back
this russian aggression
how long we have to wait until the
disaster will happen in this world
and it will
it is not be stopped it will i assure
you it will
with the stupidity
of the russian army
that is shooting and killing our man
infrastructure and as i said
nuclear power plants and we have left
plenty of them in ukraine with reactors
cannot be a human mistake or it could be
human mistake and it's going to be
disaster
not me just last couple of questions
president zielenski has said that
ukraine should come around to the idea
that it's not going to become a member
of the nato you know that climb down has
been very visible but will ukraine join
the european union we saw president
zielinski got that get that huge uh
standing ovation from the european union
parliament what difference in your view
vladimir would it make if ukraine was a
member of the european union
we are in heart of europe
eventually we will be in eu
i'm not going to discuss nato right now
we are not in nato and this is matter of
fact
we are defending ourselves
pretty damn well without nato but we
need support
we need support so less
civilians less people are going to be
dead
this
war we didn't start
this is occupation of the other
country
by russia
that must be stopped
russians
must go home
final question to you vladimir what
according to you
you know you're a global citizen you've
you know you've fought all over the
world you've come back to ukraine now
you've picked up a weapon you're part of
the territorial defense what according
to you does russia want you're talking
about this madman who has started this
war do you think russia wants to annex
ukraine or for president zelensky's you
know government or regime to be toppled
what do you think is it regime change
russia want to go back to ussr
and make ukrainian be part of it
as belarus is
that's i guess
that's what the imperialism is doing
that's what it is
and one more time whatever
russians this
listen
russian russians there is like different
stories because the propaganda that is
going on in russia
is accusing ukraine
of being bad
nationalistic and fascists and nazis and
whatever they're saying
a complete nonsense
complete lie
it doesn't exist they thought
that ukraine will cheer up when russian
army is coming
instead of cheering up with saying screw
you off
go home
we don't want you
here i think what you you know what you
mentioned that nato is off the table
we're not even discussing nato right now
is what you said uh but help is required
because with each passing hour of
non-involvement from the outside there
are civilian debts and a humanitarian
crisis that's becoming bigger in front
of your eyes thank you vladimir
klitschko it's been an honor thank you
for your time it's good to hear from you
you're one of the most influential and
well-known ukrainians all over the world
certainly here in india as well so we
thank you we hope you stay safe and as
you said ukraine is capable of defending
itself but let's hope let's hope that
this humanitarian crisis does not
escalate any further let's hope there is
some sense in the diplomatic route and
the compromise that can be hammered out
between both countries at this point of
time vladimir klitschko thank you very
much for speaking to india today
thank you

from cave the ukraine russia war has
entered day 25
and over the next 20 minutes i'll take
you through the latest development
straight from the war zone india today
has been getting you all the images of
the havoc and devastation from day one
of the russian invasion images on your
screen show the most haunting images
from the first day of war till day 10.
the next set of visuals on your screen
capture the mass destruction
intense shelling and airstrikes from day
11 to day 18 of the russian invasion
ukraine has battled reigning missiles
non-stop bombardment and air raids
here's a look at the war wrath unleashed
on ukraine from day 19 to day 25.
[Music]
it's the 25th day of russian invasion of
ukraine and putin's troops continue
their relentless attacks on key
ukrainian cities capital keeve and
kharkiv have witnessed the wrath of
russian missiles
several poor towns including mario pole
have been battered by round-the-clock
shellings several buildings have been
reduced to rubble
russian troops halt convoy of buses
traveling to evacuate residents of
mariapole
according to the burdyan city council
the convoy was heading to bardyansk from
zapruzia to pick up fleeing mario pole
residents but was stopped by russian
troops meanwhile
ukraine has refused to bow down amid
russian assaults on saturday ukrainian
president called on putin to sit for
comprehensive peace talks the leader
said that failure to find a peaceful
solution would result in several
generations of russians reeling from the
clauses of the war
negotiations about peace about security
for us about security for ukraine a
substantial fair and without delays this
is the only chance the only chance for
russia to reduce the harm from its own
mistakes
we were always insisting on the
negotiations we were always offering
dialogue offering a solution for peace i
want everyone to hear me now especially
in moscow the time has come for a
meeting it is time to talk the time has
come to restore territorial integrity
and justice for ukraine otherwise
russia's losses will be such that it
will take you several generations to
recover
with every passing day
the russia ukraine war is becoming more
and more deadly
russia has claimed that it has used
hypersonic kinsale missiles to destroy a
large weapons depot in ukraine's western
irano francois region moscow has never
before admitted using the high precision
weapon in the combat
the video of the missile strike was put
out by russia
the hypersonic weapon is defined as fast
low-flying and highly maneuverable
weapon designed to be too quick and
agile for traditional missile defense
systems to detect in time the kinzhal
was one of an array of new weapons
russian president vladimir putin
unveiled in his state of the nation
address in 2018. putin had termed
kinzhal as an ideal weapon
the kinzhal is a nuclear-capable
air-launched ballistic missile
with several advanced qualities
including super speed that can go up to
twelve thousand three hundred fifty
kilometers per hour
up to two thousand kilometer target
range and can overcome air defense
systems
taliyatin is located outside the city of
ivano franco
the region of ivano franco shares a 50
kilometer long border with nato member
romania
on march 18 kingsville missile system
armed with hypersonic aeroballistic
missiles destroyed a large ukrainian
forces underground depot which contained
missiles and aircraft ammunition in the
settlement of de latin of
ivano-frankevis region in western
ukraine coastal missile system bastian
destroyed a radio and reconnaissance
center of the ukrainian forces in the
odessa region
the russian ukraine conflict enters its
25th day
several anti-war russians trying to
escape legal repercussions for joining
unsanctioned protests back at home are
now trying to migrate to united states
while the mexico border here is a report
unending russian offensive
ukraine facing the brunt of putin's
attack from ground and air
is cities rubbish
millions displaced turned refugees
ironically their fate is shared by many
russians too
[Music]
many russian nationals who are bitterly
opposed to war too are facing a similar
fate
their country to escape hounding and
legal persecution for joining
unsanctioned protests
to denounce putin's war
thousands of russians who had fled their
country are now trying to migrate to the
united states of america via the mexican
border
so it's some kind of
i don't know discrimination
we have the same problem
yeah there isn't war in my country but
in my country there is a regime
and i was escaping from that
while u.s officials have allowed in
dozens of ukrainian refugees similarly
they eludes displaced russians
absolutely unfair
we have no answers we have no react from
the administration of the president of
the united states we have no reaction
from the
cdp officers
a few dozen russians including several
children were seen waiting in the mexico
border for several days now
wrapping themselves in thick blankets to
sleep
merely several feet from the border wall
hoping u.s officials will hear their
pleas for protection
my mom original ukraine
i have many brothers sisters ukraine
now now
yeah i
i know my
country attack but i come back russia
but so far neither mexico's migration
institute nor the u.s department of
homeland security have responded to
police by russian asylum seekers
u.s border officials have turned away
asylum seekers from countries like
nigeria colombia honduras and mexico
can rebel russians melt u.s hearts
that's the big question
your report india today
the russian ukraine conflict enters its
25th day several anti-war russians
trying to escape legal repercussions
for joining unsanctioned protests back
at home are now trying to migrate to
united states while the mexico border
here is a report
now is the time for meaningful talks
that was the message from ukrainian
president vladimir zelinsky to moscow on
saturday as he called on russia to stop
its invasion
this is the only chance for russia to
reduce harm from its mistakes he said
adding that it would otherwise take
russia several generations to recover
from the war
since president vladimir putin launched
the assault on february the 24th russian
forces have taken heavy losses and their
advance has largely stalled but they
have laid siege to cities blasting urban
areas to rubble
and in recent days have intensified
missile attacks on scattered targets in
western ukraine away from the main
battlefields in the north and east of
the country
the port city of mariopol has been hit
particularly hard
officials there say fighting has reached
the city center and heavy shelling has
prevented humanitarian aid from getting
in
in cars with smashed windows held
together by tape these evacuees managed
to escape the besieged city arriving in
zapposia
there is no mariopol this lady says
adding that she had sat in a cellar for
10 days with no water or electricity
our homes are destroyed bombs landed in
the yards and in every flat the windows
were blown out so we took our parrot the
dog and together with the whole family
we got in the car and drove there were
lots of people dying on the streets dead
bodies were lying on the streets
efforts to evacuate civilians were also
underway in the eastern region of
luhansk its governor said on saturday a
regime of silence has been agreed for
march the 19th sergey gaidai said in a
message on telegram adding that a
humanitarian corridor had been opened le
chance lies in ukraine's coal-rich
non-bass region that has been partly
controlled by russia-backed separatists
since 2014.
russia's defense ministry said on
saturday it had used hypersonic missiles
to destroy a large weapons depot in
ukraine's western ivana frankevsk region
missiles had also destroyed ukrainian
military and reconnaissance centers near
the port of odessa the interfax news
agency quoted the ministry as saying
reuters was not able to independently
verify the reports
moscow calls its actions in ukraine a
special operation to demilitarize and
de-nazify its southern neighbour
kiev and moscow reported some progress
in talks this week towards a political
formula that would guarantee ukraine's
security while keeping it outside of
nato one of russia's main demands
though each side has accused the other
of dragging out the talks
the united nations security council has
met to discuss allegations that the u.s
is funding biological weapons research
in ukraine the u.s denies the claim
here's the news
report russia called the meeting to
present what it described as new
evidence a u.s supported biological
research laboratory in the ukraine posed
a threat to the region
put simply the ukrainian authorities
gave the pentagon carte blanche on the
territory of ukraine to carry out
dangerous biological experiments there
this is not the noble assistance to
ukraine that the american
representatives talk about this is a
cynical use of its territory and
population for dangerous research which
washington does not carry out on its own
territory so it doesn't run the risk of
hurting its own people
the u.s denies any chemical weapons
programs exist
it is russia that has long maintained a
biological weapons program in violation
of international law
it is russia
that has a well-documented history of
using chemical weapons
it is russia who is the aggressor here
the united states also warned that
russia may very well be planning its own
chemical weapons attack using a false
flag allegation to justify it it was the
second time in two weeks that the
security council met on the subject at
russia's request
the un's high representative for
disarmament said they had no evidence of
chemical or biological weapons but she
also conceded that the united nations
currently has neither the mandate
nor the technical or operational
capacity to investigate this invest
information i ask the united kingdom's
ambassador if that undermines their
argument if there is a genuine concern
the right thing to do would be to seal
off the site
have a ceasefire seal off the site and
then allow experts in to investigate
it is not the right thing to do to bring
spurious claims to the un security
council which are debunked by everyone
there
countries like china and brazil called
for just such an independent
investigation under the biological
weapons convention which prohibits their
use
meantime daily attacks continue to
batter ukraine many of them
indiscriminate according to the united
nations causing damage to civilian
infrastructure and mounting casualties
kristen salumi al-jazeera the united
nations russia's president waladmir
putin has praised the war in ukraine as
a success he appeared before large
crowds in moscow who had gathered to
celebrate eight years since russia
annexed crimea
this was a powerful show of patriotism
in moscow russia's biggest stadium was
filled to its 81 000 capacity to
celebrate eight years since the
annexation of crimea or as it's called
here the reunification
and everywhere the zed the sign that
first appeared on russian military
vehicles in ukraine and has now become a
symbol of support for russia's war there
it was a stage set for vladimir putin
who told the crowd that the united
states is using ukraine to threaten
russia he's had the soldiers fighting
their illustrated russian unity
shoulder to shoulder they help each
other support each other
and when needed they shield each other
from bullets with their bodies like
brothers
such unity we have not had for a long
time
a survey after the first week of the war
showed that what the kremlin calls its
special operation in ukraine was
supported by 58 of russians
there have been attempts to protest
against the war but they are quickly
often brutally suppressed
but others are finding ways to voice
their opposition such as this art group
called party of the dead protesting
somewhere in russia
is
we are practically living on a war
footing there's no way for it not to
affect us anymore we have to fight this
war and those who are stoking it keeping
it going and are prepared to take it to
some catastrophic finale that show of
descent won't get covered by russian
television
but friday's flag waving in moscow and
other cities will though you won't hear
that ukraine says it's fighting for its
survival or that the west dismisses
accusations that it wants to rip russia
apart bernard smith al jazeera moscow

[Music]
[Music]
as the russia ukraine crisis escalates
and as the shock waves are felt all
around the world one of those shock
waves is definitely here in india as
well it's a good time to remember that
the indian military happens to be one of
the largest users of soviet era and
russian weaponry and military hardware
[Music]
and that's one of the reasons why
amidst everything that's happening with
all the unpredictability between russia
and ukraine the indian ministry of
defense has held a high level meeting to
assess the possible aftermath the
possible risk to india's arsenals as a
result of this war between russia and
ukraine russian equipment dominates
every aspect of india's war fighting
arsenal across the three services take a
look at this vast list of russian origin
weaponry currently operated by india
let's start with the indian air force
the newest equipment is the s 400
triumph air defense missile system then
you've got a huge fleet of su-30 mki
fighters then there are the mig-29 the
upgraded mig-29 fighters which are a
mainstay in the indian air force then
you've got the old mig-21 fighter jets
they've got a
controversial reputation but continue to
operate in large numbers
one of the biggest aircraft operated by
the indian air force is also a russian
origin the illusion il-76 fleet and the
similar il-78 which is india's mid-air
refueling tanker fleet then you've got
the il-76 falcon airborne warning and
control system aircraft which are based
in agra utility helicopters are also
russian the me 17 helicopters very
visible very uh iconic they're the
mainstay the backbone of india's medium
lift helicopter fleet
then you've got me 35 heavy assault
helicopters also of russian origin
operated by india the me 26 heavy lift
helicopters the biggest helicopters in
the world also in indian service are
from russia the brahmos cruise missile
is an indo-russian joint venture much of
the technology is from russia
coming to missiles from the r-77 to the
r-27 to the r-73
virtually all air-to-air missiles
currently used by indian air force
aircraft are of russian origin when it
comes to air-to-surface missiles huge
numbers are from russia kh-59 kh-35
kh-31 air-to-surface munitions all of
russian origins india also operates many
different types of the kab family of
bombs that are air launched not to
mention the igla man pads which you're
actually seeing being used in ukraine
right now those are also the shoulder
fired air defense systems that have been
in service with india for a very long
time and are of russian origin

turkey has become a sanctuary for
russian anti-war dissidents turkish

passport holders are allowed visa free
entry for up to 60 days here is the news
report
queuing to get into a charity rep
concert in istanbul's category district
hundreds of russians here united in
showing their opposition to their
country's war in ukraine and support for
the ukrainian fight to stop the invasion
most of them are young and well-educated
russians
if you write
more in your instagram or
facebook
you can go to the
hotel yeah
others say they were arrested for
joining anti-war protests in cities back
home
not long time before i
got arrested because i took part in some
morales and
i got fired
also in istanbul is alisa zaiseva the
russian activist left moscow two weeks
ago to cram her life into the small room
in hostel she has a russian passport but
half of her family is ukrainian like
many of her peers she was born after
russian president vladimir putin was
elected we never chose him we literally
had
votes rights just a couple years ago we
never voted for this government people
feel guilty like young generation that
they
trying to do something but it's
impossible and it's dangerous
but living in turkey means many
challenges lie ahead the russian
anti-war newcomers need a life to settle
housing money
due to the crippling international
sanctions their credit cards don't work
most have no plan
it's pretty nice and clean and it's good
enough to accommodate a wrapper
rappaport is an anthropology researcher
who left russia nine years ago she has
been in istanbul for nearly two years
and stayed out of politics but now she
helps other russians who fled to get a
roof over their heads
i cannot go on and
do my regular daily routines when
something like so unjust and like so
uncalled for is
happening
others in self-exile fear for the future
and putin's potential revenge
when he turns back from the war he will
turn his eyes to the people that did not
support his actions
and that will be war inside
as well as russians some ukrainians also
ended up in istanbul uric is married to
a russian in kazan but felt he wasn't
safe there or in his hometown kiev
either
it's really sad that
russian people
they worry about their economy when
our people die turkey is one of the
easier destinations to escape to for
russians who are against war but even if
fighting in ukraine ends soon russians
may face 15-year prison sentence if they
return home because of their social
media pause and their opposition to the
invasion
al jazeera islam russians have just
started to see the effect of war on
their economy as sanctions and
international isolation begin to bite
from inflation to supply chain logistics
every corner of the economy has started
to feel the effect here is a news report
every kopec counts as russians begin to
feel the effect of sanctions on their
economy
one dollar bought 75 rubles before the
war now it buys a hundred that means
higher prices for imported goods such as
the fruit and veg in this market what
can fit the island sweets used to cost
70 rubles now they cost 100 and chicken
also we don't leave a luxury life but
the prices went up notably
the price of sugar went up significantly
more than 10 rubles
i ran out of salt and sugar and i
couldn't find them now today they
appeared
my pension would be enough it is not so
little but i spend almost half of it on
medicines so very little remains
[Music]
everything is more expensive sorry fish
used to be 120 rubles now it's 480. last
time we bought buckwheat almost 200
very expensive it's hard for us we want
to eat
russian president vladimir putin has
acknowledged that sanctions mean the
economy will need what he calls deep
structural changes they won't be easy he
said before the war in ukraine inflation
here was already over nine percent the
highest it's been in seven years that
could now double and interest rates are
at 20 percent all of this putting a real
squeeze on russian incomes
at the russian association of patriotic
entrepreneurs some believe there are
opportunities to be had as western firms
pull out though first there are
practical challenges to work around
the whole supply chain has been damaged
many producers are not sending raw
materials or finished products to russia
even if they are containers aren't
leaving because of concerns about
sanctions so a big question for
processing industries is what is their
logistic chain the ruble dollar exchange
rate is also a big stress
many russians credit their president
with stabilizing the economy after the
collapse of the soviet union
it grew every year vladimir putin was in
office until the global financial crisis
a group of international banks now
expects economic output to fall by up to
a third this year
bernard smith al jazeera moscow a toy

based in naperville illinois citizen
brick started making unofficial lego

for the ukrainian people after the
russian invasion started last month we
make a lot of these parts by hand owner
joe troopia says what started out as a
simple fundraising idea quickly
ballooned into something much bigger
having sold out the first batch of them
kind of immediately but to people we
knew
kind of our regular customers we kind of
thought we were done with it and then
all of a sudden started getting
pings on the phone and we saw that it
was being
reproduced
on the ukrainian instagram page which
was kind of a shock and suddenly we were
getting a lot of
followers from instagram from the
ukraine and people messaging us and
it was kind of overwhelming
the zielinski figurine sold for 100 each
while a molotov cocktail figurine
decorated with the ukrainian flag went
for 20 dollars
trippia says the funds from citizen
bricks sales will go to direct relief a
charity that claims to have sent over 30
tons of medical aid to ukraine we've had
a lot of contact with people in ukraine
which is surprising you know
that
they have the time and the kind of
mind to contact us and say thanks which
is very humbling
and that kind of we keep that in front
of our minds when we're trying to do
something like this
russia has defended its military
activity in ukraine as a special
operation aimed at demilitarizing and
denotifying its neighbor
since russia invaded ukraine the soaring
melody of ukraine's national anthem has
been heard worldwide from anti-war
protests in moscow to the stage of major
concert halls known by its opening line
ukraine's glory has not perished the
anthem is being heard daily in ukraine

[Applause]
u.s drones to make the drone fight equal
[Music]
devil drones in a deathly duel to the
finish
ukraine's war of the suicide drones
[Music]
since the beginning of this invasion of
ukraine intermittently you've seen fuzzy
video footage
of drone strikes taking place in
different parts of ukraine
drones
with their cameras switched on recording
the pulverization and destruction of
different targets whether they're
ukrainian or russian using
combat drones these are armed drones
that loiter in the air acquire their
targets and then dive out of the sky and
hit them or there are hunter killer
drones which are flying around like
aircraft and launch bombs or
laser-guided munitions directly at their
targets while all at the same time
watching and recording that destruction
as you can see in some of the videos on
your screen none of the videos you see
on your screen are made up they're not
fabricated those are all drone strikes
caught on drone camera and now to
counter the russian
drones that are hitting some of their
targets ukraine is about to receive
consignments of american-made
switchblade drones these are small
little drones that can be carried in
backpacks and launched with devastating
effect against small targets including
tanks including vehicles
large numbers of which the russians have
already sent into ukraine these drones
carry warheads that detonate on impact
could this be a game changer and a step
forward in what has been a week
of heavy drone warfare
[Music]
ukraine standing up to moscow's
offensive despite weeks of ravaging
assault showing unparalleled courage and
spirit rarely seen in recent times
showing it can be a match to moscow's
superior military might and far
sophisticated weaponry but russia on its
part has been using stealthy suicide
drones to attack the ukrainian army
these unmanned drones evading radar and
traditional air defense system can slip
past enemy line of fire
this devil in the sky is lethal using
loitering munitions which wait passively
in the air hovering over the target
before coming down in one deathly swoop
the drone falls head first along a
vertical trajectory similar to kamikazes
a japanese aircraft loaded with
explosives and making a deliberate
suicidal crash on an enemy target
russia is using these drones to make
precision attacks on military targets in
ukraine
each of them packs a small explosive
charge up to 3 kgs targets are fed into
the drone or through an image uploaded
on its control system the drone then
finds its target and drops itself to
blow the target into smithereens
these loitering munition drones are
multi-purpose and used as part of a
swarm of drones
flying silently as fast as 130 kilometer
per hour with a flight duration of 30
minutes
to counter russian depth drones the us
is now supplying ukraine with
switchblade drones which works in
similar kamikaze fashion the small
drones made by aerovironment ammunition
major carrying warhead detonate on
impact
we are reported india today
[Music]
okay let's uh let's show you now
what these drones actually look like
let's show you for a moment what these
drones actually look like washington is
now sending us made kamikaze drones also
dubbed suicide or killer drones to war
hit ukraine as part of a one billion
dollar
security assistance package to the
war-torn country now what are kamikaze
drones they're a kind of drone it's not
a name of a drone why are they
considered you know possible game
changers why is it being seen that these
suicide drones you know could turn the
tide of a numerically inferior battle
opponent these are super stealthy
unmanned drones small little vehicles
they carry a big explosive warhead that
can uh you know create an impact far
bigger than its size can suggest
able to evade air defense slips past
enemy lines because i like i said
they're very very small little drones
they can be carried in backpacks they
seek out targets they have autonomous
computers they can be pre-programmed
with coordinates hunt kill dive out of
the sky and hit they can hover over a
target and basically wait and lurk
around lighter around for an opportune
moment and then they hit that target
exploding in what is called a suicide
strike they can be also used in swarm
mode hundreds of these drones can be
deployed at the same time in order to
somehow overwhelm uh you know military
or vehicular columns of the kind that
russia has been sending these drones
have a top speed of about 130 kilometers
per hour with a payload of about three
kilograms so a sizable little warhead
with uh you know with sensors on board
as well they have a flight duration of
about 30 minutes that's very very
healthy can cover many kilometers in
that time to actually hit a target so
those are the kinds of drones that
ukraine is currently getting in order to
strike russian targets now how do you
fight a superpower which is out to
annihilate you you do what ukraine is
doing with killer precision using
whatever it possibly can to take out
these approaching russian convoys enter
the super lethal super silent
birachtar drones these are turkish
drones that were supplied to ukraine
back in 2019 and along with the switch
switchblade drones that are being sent
to ukraine now by the united states
ukraine has been using the biracter
drones supplied by turkey to devastating
effect or at least that's what ukraine
suggests remember it's not a one-way
street russia has been mounting drone
strike after drone strike as well
perhaps the most compelling aerial image
of ukraine's counter strike on its
invaders
[Music]
look carefully at these infrared images
what you're looking at is a russian
missile position being struck from the
skies by a ukrainian drone
the drone said to be raining this hell
on russian forces is the bay rakhtar tb2
a combat drone fleet supplied by turkey
in 2019
these drones carry forward laser-guided
missiles that have proven highly
effective in combat
the tb2 has a flight time of 24 hours
and a communication range of almost 185
miles with a service altitude ceiling of
roughly 25 000 feet
additionally some of these drones create
a disturbing sound when approaching
their targets which can be
psychologically unsettling
the chief of ukraine's air force
lieutenant general michola oleshchuk
describes the beer actor tb2 drones as
life giving each beer actor tb2 system
consists of six aerial vehicles two
ground control stations
three ground data terminals
two remote video terminals and ground
support equipment bay raktor tb2 uav can
carry a maximum payload of more than 55
kilos the standard payload configuration
includes an electro optical camera
module an infrared camera module
a laser designator
a laser range finder
and a laser pointer
ukraine is the latest instance of these
formidable attack drones in action
bayraktar tb2 drones were heavily
effective for azerbaijan against armenia
in november 2002 as testified by
multiple videos that emerged at that
time
a precursor to this was the success of
the tb2 drones against russian-made
weapons in syria and libya
key aspects like low visibility and
detectability thanks to the low radar
cross-section makes this drone slick and
agile
it is interesting to note that earlier
this year turkey and ukraine had an
agreement in place to co-produce
beiraktar tb2 drones at a production
site in ukraine
[Music]
ukrainian defense minister olesi
reznikov told reporters in kiev that the
co-production compound would also
include a training center where
ukrainian pilots would be trained
[Music]
this had caused a lot of resentment and
anger amongst the russian defense
establishment back then
and with the drones striking russian
targets once again now
expect things to escalate further from
the air
with sai kiran kannan in singapore euro
report india today
i want to go across now to two
indian army combat veterans that
understand the way this war is moving in
ukraine at this point of time they
understand the technology that is being
used and they understand the impact that
some of these technologies could
possibly have uh we have with us rajesh
pavar who's a special forces veteran of
the indian army he's live with us from
kiev major samarthur is a sniper and
urban warfare expert he's been a u.n
peacekeeper as well they both join me
live good evening gentlemen thank you
very much for being with me here in
india today rajesh coming to you first
since you're in ukraine still one of the
few journalists still reporting from
kiev at this point of time uh you know
the the the news about drones uh rajesh
is interesting
in the recent past in just the last
couple of years we've seen the very very
effective
very uh impactful uh you know aftermath
of the use of drones uh in the russia
ukraine crisis over the last few days
especially there have been a
multiplicity of inputs and videos of
drone strikes you know flowing from both
sides and now we hear that there are new
us drones also coming in for the
ukrainians to use these kamikaze drones
how you know first you know assess for
us the use of drones so far in this
conflict from your view rajesh
look chef drones have been a game
changer if you remember the recent war
which happened the azerbaijan and
armenian war drones were the game
changer the drone supply to azerbaijan
by turkey changed the course of war
completely and armenia had to give up
they had to come to the negotiation
table and had to accept what ajar bhajan
had to offer same thing is happening in
this war drones are being used by both
the sites in a big way yes and now new
uh american drones are being supplied to
ukraine these are like suicide drones
they have a small payload on top they
can carry up to one kilogram of payload
and they just
hover around in the area look at the
targets identify the target and just go
and hit the target and destroy it and
they can be game changers really in this
war and a large number of these
drones have been supplied by america to
ukraine in the last few days and new
supplies are coming in every day as we
talk shiv
uh major major summer how do you see
this you know like rajesh says we've
seen drones of a very similar kind being
used to devastating effect in the
armenia azerbaijan war you know just a
couple of years ago
there is an increasing and visible use
of drones attack drones uh you know
hunter killer drones as well as these
kamikaze drones here some of them are
very very small they can be carried in
backpacks they can be deployed with
hardly any logistical footprint
whatsoever you know frontline special
forces infantry troops can easily deploy
these to devastating effect how do you
see this major though
and
rajesh basically to begin with
i i want to bring out a very surprising
fact that probably the world is not
aware of much as of now
basically the creator of beretta tb2
drone
is
now this individual was born in 7th
october 1979
he's done his graduation from the united
states from massachusetts institute of
technology so this individual's
father-in-law
is today's turkish prime minister
erdogan
so basically he had set up a
drone industry named
baker bayk
industries for setting up of these nano
drones so as a result uh he got a
project approval from the turkish
government through the prime minister of
turkey and there was full expertise and
manpower and the brain put into creating
such a lethal drone which is actually
become the mainstay of any battle you
know azerbaijan and armenia had the
dispute of land since 1988
but within 44 days
you know azerbaijan was able to solve
this issue by use of drones yes armenian
army was getting inputs like within
eight minutes they were getting inputs
or at various locations amounting to
hundreds of casualties of the soldiers
yes so basically in today's uh age of
warfare drone has become a needle in the
sky which is so lethal that once it
strikes there is no tracking it it is
made up of composite material number one
number two they have different types of
drones you know they are micro drones
there are nano drones they are small
tactical drones they are medium range
reconnaissance drones and now the latest
concept which is going to come in the
future is going to be mother drones with
small tactical drones yes that means one
mother drone is able to carry
approximately 10 to 15 drones with it
and those small drones would be at least
armed with two to four bombs each yes so
it is going to be a plethora of
artillery shells but the difference is
they have wings they have a direction
and they have a guidance system yes as
to where it is going to go and hit so
you can run you can hide but you cannot
escape from them
you are in the trenches yeah you are in
the buildings
or you are at any particular
these drones are you know increasingly
intelligent they are able to you know
loiter for extended periods of time
you know since you brought up the
armenia azerbaijan war even there we saw
you know
a numerically and less equipped force
being able to in many ways
give a good fight if not turn the tables
of that conflict with the concerted use
of these drones do you think that's
possibly something that's happening here
or could happen rajesh
not not as much as it influenced the
course of war in azerbaijan and armenia
it won't be that much because both sides
are technologically much more superior
than probably the two sides we're
talking about azerbaijan and armenia
these are ukrainian army and uh
he's much more sophisticated has much
more sophisticated technology than that
but yes there is no doubt that drones
have been game changer in that war and
they are likely to be game changer in
this war as well and that is the reason
after russia has been using its suicide
the drones on a ukraine target yeah
ukrainian authorities pleaded with
america and america is now supplying
these drones which are as brought out
very small drones they carry a payload
up to one hour yeah one kg and they can
stay in our area and hover around in
area for hours
waiting for the target these targets can
be laser eliminated or it can be fed
into the memory of the drones and when
they recognize the target they go and
just dive into it and destroy it and
they
impact they they blast on impact and the
target is destroyed yeah so these are
very very efficient and uh low low cost
uh technology now to destroy tanks or
armored carrier personnel which cost a
lot of money and you see the course of
the way war has been fought we have been
thinking about war it was fought in 20th
century but in 21st century the armored
on which there was so much of reliance
between india pakistan or beach and
other asian countries things have
changed now the reliance on armor is not
so much and
the air power along with drones is the
future which whichever
side will have a stronger technology in
these two fields probably will dominate
the battlefield and that appears to be
the case uh uh um a major summer one
final question to you is you know you've
been an urban warfare specialist you've
operated in hostile and
environments just like rajesh has as a
special forces officer major tour uh you
know how
did you have access to this kind of
technology when you were a soldier and
if not
you know i'm sure looking at all these
weapons now you must be thinking you
know i wish we had such systems they
would have made many many things much
easier
we we have been utilizing the
drones you know basically for
surveillance at reconnaissance yeah and
uh as far as the close combat was
concerned where we used to corner in the
terrorists we use these drones earlier
it used to be uh the choppers or the
helicopters hovering over and they used
to give us guidance and even they had
extreme threat from terrorist fire so as
a result you know latest the last
operation that i had conducted was in
2018 in which i had participated and it
was with the help of drone that we were
able to track three joshua mohamed
hardcore terrorists and we could
actually eliminate them before the last
slide
so basically drones are definitely a
very efficient equipment which are going
to change the face of war and it is
basically now a contactless war right
you're not going to see the enemy but it
is going to strike
now the most amazing part is
any armored brigade or regiment moving
moving in for attack you know its turret
cannot move beyond a particular limit
absolutely in the elevation point of
view so all the drones which are there
for them armored armored columns are
sitting ducks
they're going to be taken out one by one
yeah and there's going to be utter chaos
and confusion so this is definitely
coming out to be
you could say amongst the top attack
weapons or shells yeah from that point
of view you know it is something like
death from above in a very stealthy
manner which is not recognizable by
radar which is not detectable which is
not visible and you have no reaction
time to get away from it it's just you
know these tiny little things i want to
emphasize once again so our viewers get
that straight these are not you know big
room filling drones the switchblades
that the ukrainians are going to be
getting from the united states are small
drones that can fit into military style
backpacks are very much the kind of
backpacks that rajesh and summer would
have carried during their you know
combat missions as well so this is these
are game changers low investment low
cost low logistics easy to operate easy
to program easy to deploy and
devastating effect that's that's the key
here and it could see greater usage
going forward rajesh and summer honor
thank you very much for getting us your
viewpoint of this it's always so good to
have former soldiers speak about how
this entire crisis is unfolding

climate change is a buzzword that is not
only haunting the bureaucrats but also
everyone around the world and by changes
we mean it's having huge impacts on
human life and one of the biggest
reasons behind climate change is global
warming what is global warming
the earth's atmosphere is made up of
gases that absorb infrared radiation
this means they retain heat from the sun
forming a thermal air around the planet
without this so called greenhouse effect
temperatures would be around minus 18
degrees celsius so there would be no or
little life on earth but the warming
process has been destabilized as levels
of key greenhouse gases like carbon
dioxide methane and nitrous oxide have
reached the highest in 8 lakh years in
the last 130 years the global average
surface temperature has risen by 0.85
degrees celsius the current trend could
lead to a 4 degree rise after another 80
years scientists agree that humans are
influencing the climate system through
fossil fuel burning around 2000 billion
tons of co2 have been emitted since the
start of the industrial revolution in
1750 intensive agriculture methane
produced by the sector accounts for 10
to 12 percent of global greenhouse gas
emissions 40 of which comes from
livestock alone and deforestation which
destroys co2 absorbing vegetation how is
global warming impacting lives
recent climate changes are already
impacting humans and natural systems
worldwide with an increase in phenomena
like worsening drought flooding rising
seizures glaciers belt and sea water
expands ocean acidification and the
extension of species united nations
climate experts warn of devastating and
irreversible consequences if global
warming is not quickly and sharply
limited

this breaking news coming in uh a loud
explosion hurt in the cantonment area of
silicon the explosion was followed by
multiple explosions the explosion is now
suspected to be an ammunition depot and
an area controlled by the pakistani army
it is still not clear now whether this
blast happened inside pakistan ali's
ammunition
depot or not
locals are saying that no lives have
been lost as yet however pakistan army
is yet to confirm details of the
incident ispr has said incident took
place due to short circuit
accidental fire broke out
um in an ammunition shed near sealcoat
garrison
mystery blast in pakistan right there in
seattle
a loud explosion heard there it's
suspected to be at an ammunition depot
this is controlled by the pakistani army
this depot it's still not clear whether
this blast happened inside the
ammunition depot or not god of savant is
now joining us for the latest on this
god of do we have more information on
the blast that just took place uh
pakistani army is yet to confirm the
details of this particular incident and
the isp are also going on to say that
this has happened due to short circuit
accidental fire broke out uh what really
happened there
so uh the latest information that uh
ispr is really saying it's a short
circuit and there were a series of
blasts that happened and that continued
for several hours in seattle and
calcutta is a major military garrison uh
not far uh you know from the border on
the indian side uh and these these
explosions were watched very keenly uh
from both sides of the border uh
initially some report seemed to have
indicated there was this angle of
sabotage
but uh pakistan has confirmed that there
was no sabotage this was indeed a struck
circuit at an ammunition before uh which
resulted in this massive fire and with
ammunition getting cooked in that fire
uh
these these explosives
resulted in several localities close to
this ammunition before uh near the
military garrison being vacated
and even now people are not being
permitted to go back because it will
take at least 24 to 48 hours
for the bomb disposal teams to get there
and deal with the elimination that that
has uh you know already been hooked uh
in this massive fire
right uh and also there were multiple
blasts right gorups are there any kind
of uh casualties that have been reported
none that have made it to public domain
just as yet and you know there's a
there's tremendous security uh
considering there's been a massive
explosion at a military garage
and a major ammunition before uh of
pakistan ordinance uh where this uh
incident took place so we do not know if
there are casualties uh there is an
apprehension that could have been some
and we do not know the circumstances
just as get uh you know as a standard
operating procedure military is uh
rover there is an inquiry that is
ordered but prima facie they're saying
that this was the result of a short
circuit uh
you know but technically even if there
is a short circuit ammunition is kept
rather i insulated uh but uh was this
negligent was it sabotage will perhaps
only know
in times to come because in pakistan as
you well know cheti this situation is
very very precarious with the kind of
opposition that pakistan's prime
minister imran khan is facing uh and his
fights with pakistan army so we do not
know what exactly is happening on ground
right now we will wait for more clarity
uh since mainstream pakistani media is
not even going big uh with such a huge
story
oh yes absolutely um god of war is
breaking the story first you're on india
today bringing us all the very latest
details as far as this blaster's console
for now we're going to call it a mystery
blast because we do not know the reason
why it has happened and gaurav will be
getting us more information mainstream
pakistani media has got rightly
mentioned not even reporting on this
deadly

on saturday ukrainian president
zielinski called on putin to sit for
comprehensive peace talks the leader
said that failure to find a peaceful
resolution would result in several
generations of russians reeling from the
losses of the war
negotiations about peace about security
for us about security for ukraine a
substantial fair and without delays this
is the only chance the only chance for
russia to reduce the harm from its own
mistakes
we were always insisting on the
negotiations
we were always offering dialogue
offering a solution for peace i want
everyone to hear me now especially in
moscow the time has come for a meeting
it is time to talk the time has come to
restore territorial integrity and
justice for ukraine otherwise russia's
losses will be such that it will take
you several generations to
recover the russia ukraine war has
become more deadly russia has claimed
that it had used hypersonic kinzhal
missiles to destroy a large weapons
depot in ukraine's western ivano frank
gibbs region moscow has never before
admitted using the high precision weapon
in combat the video of the missile
strike was put out by russia the
hypersonic weapon is defined as fast
low-flying
highly maneuverable weapon designed to
be too quick and agile for traditional
missile defense system to detect in time
the kinzhal was one of an array of new
weapons russian president vladimir putin
unveiled in his state of the nation
address in 2018. putin had termed
kinzhal an ideal weapon the kinzhal is
nuclear capable an air launch ballistic
missile with several advanced qualities
including super speed that can go up to
twelve thousand three fifty kilometers
per hour up to two thousand kilometers
to target range and can overcome air
defense systems delighten is located
outside the city of ivano frank gibbs
the region of ivano francis shares a 50

frankiewicz region in western ukraine
coastal missile system bastion destroyed
a radio and reconnaissance center of the
ukrainian forces in the odessa region
amidst the raging 24-day war top russian
commanders have been killed by ukrainian
troops giving moscow a tough fight
here's a detailed report on who all were
killed in this combat
armed to the teeth
tough
ruthless
[Music]
the russian military
is one of the most intimidating forces
in the world
but the ukrainian resistance has been
equally fierce
ukraine has inflicted enough injury on
the aggressor
a key commander of the russian tank
regiment colonel andrei zakharov was
eliminated in kiev after a heavy fight
zakharov was a recipient of the order of
courage from putin himself in 2016.
this is not the first high profile
casualty for the russians in this war
in a fatal blow to russia's crack
special forces major general vitaly
grazimov the chief of staff of the 41st
army was killed in kharkiv
[Applause]
russia also lost the head of the seventh
airborne division major general andre
sukhovsky
a war hero the general's loss is being
seen as a bitter blow to putin's crack
units
a sign russia's assault isn't going to
plan the key difference now between the
ukrainian and russian forces is the
moral component
um the ukrainians are fought very well
and morale is very high
and that is infectious and it is clearly
not just between the ukrainian
professional soldiers but also the
ukrainian civil society as a whole they
see this as a fight
for national survival
and on the russian side morale is very
low
the death of the highly decorated
veterans could be a major demotivator
for the russians
and a morale booster for the ukrainian
defenders

russia's aggression in ukraine was met
by swift severe and crippling sanctions
from the united states the united
kingdom and the european union
now big tech giants are joining the
fight against russian aggression by
updating their terms to do business with
the country the world's five leading
tech companies google apple meta twitter
and amazon are imposing significant
sanctions on russia
social media giants meta twitter by
dance tik tok have come under immense
pressure to curb the spread of
misinformation
metta has removed access to russia today
and sputnik on both facebook and
instagram it has also removed the option
for state media to monetize content on
any of its platforms forcing the kremlin
to ban the social media giant
tech giant google has limited the use of
google pay in russia for customers using
a sanctioned bank it has also stopped
selling online advertising in russia
besides banning russia today and sputnik
in europe
apple has suspended all product sales in
russia and has limited apple pay and
other services it has also blocked
russia today and sputnik from apple
store
twitter has restricted some users from
russia twitter is also complying with
european union sanctions on russia
state-affiliated media russia today and
sputnik
youtube has banned the russian state
media outlet russia today and other
russian channels from receiving
advertisements it is said that videos
from russian creators will come up less
often in its recommendations
other tech companies taking a stern
stance on russia on netflix and amazon
netflix has temporarily stopped future
projects and acquisitions in russia
while tech companies are working
together to introduce measures to curb
russian expansionism the war has also
brought focus on cryptocurrencies the
ukrainian government has appealed on
twitter for cryptocurrency donations
ukraine's vice prime minister recently
tweeted the wallet address for donations
he also urged crypto exchanges to block
the addresses of russian users
in kiev cryptocurrencies are helping
fund ukraine's resistance against the
russian invasion but russia may use them
to mitigate the impact of crippling
economic sanctions imposed by the west
as long as you know the shop owner
or their son or their daughter
has the capability to take in
cryptocurrency payments but the breadth
of
um crypto adoption in ukraine is really
an important factor here
while the overwhelming impact of the
sanctions imposed by big tech companies
on russia will only be evident in the
coming months cryptocurrencies will
provide an alternative to both ukraine
and russia

hello and welcome
very rarely does a contemporary film
evoke the kind of diverse reactions the
kashmir files is generating on the one
side you've got the prime minister
commenting on the film asking people to
go out and watch it in large numbers on
the other side you've got two ecosystems
at loggerheads one set of people loving
the film loving the fact that the plight
of the kashmiri pundits has been brought
out in its gory for the world to see the
other labeling the film as being biased
and part of a larger political agenda to
talk about the kind of reactions the
kashmir file is generating i am
delighted to be joined in the india
today mediaplex by vivek akihotri who's
brought this film together one of the
finest legends of indian cinema anupam
care is with us
and she looks like arundhati roy on the
screen but that's not who she is but
video she joins us thank you so much and
it's a delight to have you and we've got
with me as my co-anchor for this
broadcast puja charlie she's a kashmiri
pandith herself very passionate about
the film we're having a furious debate
earlier in the news meeting and we said
pooja must absolutely be here for this
interview so welcome as well as a story
very close to puja this is this was an
opportunity i was not going to let go
for sure
vivek i'll start by asking you about the
kind of reactions the kashmir files is
generating and this is one film where
we've had the prime minister
interestingly urge people to go out and
watch the film and the opposition says
hey we told you so this is essentially
vivek agniho3 anupam karan palavi
pushing an agenda which suits the ruling
dispensation how do you react to the
surround sound that we're seeing around
the kashmir files first of all
rahul i'll just tell you
you how our brains are wired
you used in the introduction the diverse
reactions there's no diverse reaction
there is a monochromatic unanimous
consensual uh reaction all over the
world
all over the world anywhere in the world
not india frankfurt kenya norway finland
australia and these places
there they are jam-packed you are not
getting tickets people are crying people
are clapping they're saying bharat mata
so don't use the word diverse there
cannot be diverse views on terrorism
do not make an attempt to create
narrative it's a golden moment in the
history of india where in independent
india such a genocide took place not
even one person called it genocide we
kept calling it exodus what do you think
has led to this reaction because
pandemic after two years theaters open
people are rushing sponsoring tickets
because my timeline and and the people
i've grown up with are only talking
about this film and there is a debate
there is a debate to a certain extent on
this film there's no debate but no no
there is no difference
there is no debate i'll tell you why
i'll tell you why but my point my
question is
what do you think has happened why are
people suddenly rushing because your
film did not have traditional marketing
it was word of mouth people are telling
each other i am getting messages have
you watched it why
why
it simply shows that all these
establishments have failed establishment
of historians establishment of
intellectual establishment of media i
know rahul won't like to hear this but
it is true
all the people
who have made minted money millions all
the people who have created so many trps
discussing tier uh kashmir when the film
on kashmir files was made not even one
tv channel i was begging everybody
please give a space not one tv channel
gave her space when on 26th of january
for the first time we displayed the map
of kashmir at times square no tv channel
cared for us when the capital hill
invited us for the congressional
reception when the democratic senators
when the republican senators called and
praised our film and admitted it was a
genocide not one media channel reported
it
the people see it
today barbara's pan vale rickshaw river
valley jenkins
hypocrisy of indian intellectuals have
crumbled other talks about kashmiris
buddhists sikhs christians gujar dalit
dhogras and the moderate muslims and
every muslim the law seeing the most
penultimate climax scene of the film is
written by a kashmiri muslim boy without
changing a comma
the reason i am pitching taking the
pitch higher
because i don't want this audience to
get confused that there is a debate
because there is no debate okay let
anubaan care respond to this i'm sure
you've i i respect what you're saying
and you know they're very fond of you
but the fact is that there is a
difference of opinion and what but
i think the difference of opinion is
ratio wise
point zero one percent to ninety nine
point nine nine nine percent
now uh i'll have to agree and i want to
agree and i'm i totally agree with vivek
that if you also agree that there is no
debate there is no diversity then there
is no show
so
let's just face that this you can okay
you want to say that government is
endorsing this but you can't make
government
people like the film oh absolutely you
can't do that you can't there's a i am
getting phone calls from people who have
not spoken to me for 20 years
and i
totally agree with vivek that let's not
s
let's just keep it as a film
nobody when people go into the cinema
hall in the darkness of cinema they
don't
see that next person sitting next to him
is a muslim or sitting christian or
sardar or hindu like i think they see a
film they emotionally react to the film
they do not want to sort of say that
they are not it's not housing societies
where they don't allow hindus or muslims
or something like that people and that's
the magic of in cinema
on on social media for example let's
begin
the you you see a lot of these people
sharing documents numbers saying 100
died 200 died okay 300 maximum 500 000
died
is it a genocide why through your film
you think it needs to be called a
genocide if the number of you are a
kashmiri let me just ask you that
question directly do you think it's a
genocide it was a genocide so don't
don't be uh okay
who has faced 1990 said this what are
you saying i'll tell you
there's a tough question being asked yes
do you think it was a genocide or exodus
we are so used to calling it at max and
exodus
maybe an ethnic cleansing that even
genocide the same issue i have also
faced and i also believed till now that
because the numbers officially are not
so high look at the numbers
but i think that's a bit of a bogus
debate the fact that it's a genocide
can't be contested the fact that
kashmiri pundits were deliberately
targeted and forced to leave their homes
and the fact that enough hasn't been
done even over the last seven years that
kind of a thing i am only interested in
this interview if you are sticking to
the don't make me or make us speak about
and defend it defend the film after 32
years why should there be anything to
defend in the film you've made it from
the point that you see it because you're
actually and that's the film that you
made questions are making me feel
defensive
why don't you read out what the most
democrat secular and liberal state in
american united states thinks see this
was given to us
the official seal they have to see
can you see it in the camera can we zoom
in please just zoom in and focus on that
yes now you can read social media
available this is this is available
everywhere now
so uh we went for this
16
screenings in the us a pre-release
cleaning
and one of the
places we screened this was at boston to
rhode island uh mayham koye
after seeing the film this was sent to
us dr surendra call is sitting here he
got to he got it with him when he came
it says uh the state of rhode island
be it hereby known to all that the rhode
island house of representatives hereby
offer its sincerest congratulations to
vivekranjan agnihotri director and
filmmaker in recognition of the premiere
of the kashmir files detailing terrorism
and extremism by memory memorializing
the events of 1990 in which 500 000
kashmiri hindus were ethnically cleansed
in the kashmir valley by islamic gangs
and forced to live as refugees and this
is signed by the speaker of the house
signed by the majority leader and by the
minority leader which means the
democrats and the republicans together
along with the speaker and dr call got
it yesterday from america
i will say this because i've known these
survivors i've known most of the
families we've all had them around them
i could not believe when i was watching
the kashmir files that
they've actually put it so directly on
cinema because i have i know how
difficult it has been to speak
i darshan kumar is not here but you must
go and tell them that i was that student
who stood up in her classroom once
confronting a professor on her kashmir
rhetoric and i was ridiculed in return i
was
my friends did not know so they giggled
and they said that
they couldn't believe what i was talking
about so
i know how difficult it was to actually
have been able to see that on cinema
finally it has been difficult for the
kashmiri pundits to have their voice out
i don't doubt that and that's why it's
resonated so deeply with the community
because everyone feels it's they're
absolutely shocked to see blacks
yes these christians jews i'm in a
why is she crying and she's saying there
was another holocaust nobody told us and
who was supposed to tell
who was supposed to tell one of the
senior journalists went and she
created a absolute biggest lie
she said that they left because they
were the exploiters oppressors we have
to stop this now enough is enough one of
the critical points mr khair i remember
you had made when you'd gone back to
your home in downtown srinagar was about
the desire not just of yours pujas of
virtually every member of the kashmiri
pundit the community to go back home
to go back and to
be where they were houses sold off in
distress at cheap rates
that hasn't really materialized despite
favorable circumstances after article
370 why do you think that's the case and
can the film provoke that conversation
give it some energy so kashmiri pundits
can start going back how can that be
it took us about 200 years to get
independence
200 p yes
millions of people died
and we waited for it finally after two
and before that 800 years we were ruled
by the mughals and after that britishers
it has taken us it the article 370 has
been abrogated about three years back
before that
two years last week
it takes a little time change is not i'm
we are not here to defend anybody any
particular government and if the
government has done a great job by
abrogating article 370 which the
previous governments did not do
then it's and they took pictures with
the people with the with the
sympathizers of terrorists and
separatists and laughingly shaking hands
bringing them to prime minister's house
that's their their outlook how to they
go about it but if the present
government has abrogated article 375 and
35a and if the prime minister has made
this appeal today to the in the
parliament i don't know where he may
said that i think i want to applaud him
for that
do you hope that this sparks
people don't want to go back to the same
place if they're horrified that they
will be killed again
they're waiting but look at the kashmiri
pandit community none of them raised
picked up guns
they
survived all these 30 32 years just
because they believe in education they
believe in arts and culture and things
like that and they believe in belonging
to the country they live in
one of the hallmarks of the kashmiri
hindu community has been the desire for
knowledge and education and
the determination to stay away from
violent acrimony and revenge and focus
on upskilling which is why some of the
finest doctors writers thinkers have
come from the community and the role
that you portray is one of what's
happening in academic institutions we
want to
focus on that for a bit because it's
part of a larger debate in terms of
what's taught in colleges universities
by professors and how this so far
largely has been one left liberal point
of view is this an attempt to try and
shake the status quo further
see this is a film we made on what
happened in the 1990s
with the kashmiri hindu community
now when
you write a screenplay of the film
you cannot just talk about one thing you
have to add
different dimensions to it so my
character is just one of the dimensions
which shows how the kashmiri hindu
community was further betrayed
by
popularizing different narratives which
went against
what they went through
which went against what they stood for
everything that they were you know
trying to say the way
the
men were killed the way the women were
gang raped and cut into pieces the way
little children were hacked to death
this absolutely brutal acts which
happened in kashmir were completely you
know
veiled
by this narrative of azad kashmir
and if they wanted azad kashmir fine i
mean you anybody can get up and ask for
a free country tomorrow they are at
liberty to do so but why do you want to
shed blood for that
and why do you want to kill people who
belong to a different faith
isn't india india a great example of how
we all live together
like
you seem to be leading in bollywood
a project for the revision uh or the
rewriting of history popular imagination
and giving it a different perspective
from what has so far been the accepted
reality we saw that with the tashken
files and now where does this go from
here is this i see from your tone tenor
that a you're very passionate you're
very charged up partly emotional
is this part of an ideological project
in your head in the way that you see it
a cultural project or a political
project how do you see it and where does
this journey go after the kashmir files
wonderful i think this is the best
question i've ever heard in the entire
journey of 10 years
and see the thing is i
i was i went to harvard to study
when rajiv gandhi became the prime
minister i left my green card came back
because he promised a new india
i was disappointed never happened and
when vp singh became the uh prime
minister i was standing in front of ames
when all those boys were burning
themselves you know and i joined his
with this thing i joined arvind
kejriwal's protest also here also joined
everybody did at that time india against
corruption
everything so we i've spent a lot of
money into that and time money energy
emotion but i felt very disappointed
then i said that you cannot depend on
others if you really want to bring a
change you have to do it yourself so i
quit i resigned from bollywood means
mentally there is no office where you
can resign
and because bollywood when we say
establishment governments are never
establishments
establishment are the people who set the
rules of the game that is why royal
please don't mind i love you you know
that the reason i was stopping you
because i didn't want that conversation
to go further because that was setting
the rules of the game and after that all
young people start saying oh there are
different opinions there are no
different opinions similarly so i said
this democracy i have to make a comment
on everybody talks about equality
justice truth nobody knows what it is so
my my first film was about how students
are recruited by professors which came
true everybody knows sai baba was
arrested immediately after my film so
much happened so there are three lions
on our emblem there are three lions in
our emblem
what are these three lions so i wondered
what is democracy what are the pillars
of democracy
my first film tashkent files was on
right to truth if you don't know the
truth heart attack or murder doesn't
matter if i don't know that real truth
about the death of my second prime
minister i question the democracy
and
my third film is about right to life
when i realized our intellectuals
historians media they have failed to
educate the youth
to ask tough questions to our democracy
what after all is democracy i decided
i'll make these three films with my own
money
then abhishek agrawal a lot of people
got involved so that's what i'm doing so
i have a plan did none of you think that
a film on kashmir won to begin with
and then on kashmiri pundits very
specifically
and to bring it in the manner that you
did they're not being politically
correct in the
film they're not being solved they are
saying what it is
it could be a commercial suicide
what convinced you to make
because when you want to be yourself you
have to get rid of things which make you
dependent on other things
seriously i'm talking from my soul
everybody all of you sit and talk about
changing india how will india change
as long as we'll keep talking about
commercial suicide why i raised
spielberg's thing
he's a documentary filmmaker one day i
was wearing a t-shirt which had swastika
on it
and he kept looking at me and he and he
and he asked me he said why are you
wearing this i said because this
swastika i explained to him but i also
realized even if indirectly it hurts him
it is my as a human being responsibility
not to hurt his emotions because he has
gone through so much in his life
same thing we talk about blacks
what happens to us when we talk about
kashmiri hindus the reason i raised
steven spielberg not one person in this
world
leftists or communists or jihadis or
whoever right wing has asked him whether
six lakh people were killed or five lakh
people were killed in holocaust we
accept that holocaust was the most
inhuman thing most barbaric thing
happened but as everything happens
no hang on
this is the problem i am talking about
something which is so good and you are
not letting me talk
this is the problem no no we want to
hear it yeah so i am saying this film is
about humanity and education
give it due respect if you want to
change india and don't get involved into
number game they are not statistic they
are human beings if your parents were
killed you wouldn't have cared whether 4
000 people were killed or 400. if your
brother was killed or your sister was
raped you would never ever in your life
ask whether they are diverse views
because terrorism has no diverse views
no it has only one view that and
everything that happens when you talk of
kashmiri pundits are the reactions that
are immediately thrown at you
islamophobia hate against minorities
who's three nobody has told me
why
this i'll take this opportunity one
question you've played pushkarnath
i know that your father's name has been
push karnatakir
how
do you think pushkarnath here today
watching pushkarnath pandith would have
said to you and what has dulati said to
you after watching that
i think
today i feel
that as a son
i have
made my father
eternal and amar banadi
and that's the best tribute i could give
to my father
and that could only happen by projecting
the pain of kashmiri hindus you know you
must say we have lots of kashmiri hindus
in our newsroom and many of them are
waiting right now to meet you yes your
film touches accord accord deeper than
most films have it's a story that is
waiting to be told absolutely
it has been attempted in the past but
not with the kind of goal and brutality
and realness that you have told that so
we really appreciate you taking out time
and joining us here in the india today
mediaplex
palavijji to you thank you and anupam
thank you very much and the new angry
young man of the unbollywood no no i'm

generations of russians reeling from the
losses of war
negotiations about peace about security
for us about security for ukraine a
substantial fair and without delays this
is the only chance the only chance for
russia to reduce the harm from its own
mistakes
we were always insisting on the
negotiations
we were always offering dialogue
offering a solution for peace i want
everyone to hear me now especially in
moscow the time has come for a meeting
it is time to talk the time has come to
restore territorial integrity and
justice for ukraine otherwise russia's
losses will be such that it will take
you several generations to recover
the russian ukraine wars become more
deadly russia's claim that it has used
hypersonic kinsall missiles to destroy a
large weapons depot in ukraine's western
iran or francis region moscow had never
before admitted using these high
precision weapons in combat the video of
the strike was put out by russia the
hypersonic weapon is defined as fast
low flying in highly maneuverable weapon
designed to be very quick and agile for
traditional missile defense systems to
detect in time the kinzhal was one of an
array of new weapons the president of
russia has unveiled in the state of the
nation address in 2018 he'd call this as
an ideal weapon kinzhal is a
nuclear-capable air launch ballistic
missile with several advanced qualities
including supersede that can go up to 12
350 kilometers per hour up to two
thousand kilometers target and that's
the range and that also can overcome
air defense systems

ukrainian president zelinsky is called
on saturday for comprehensive peace
talks with moscow to stop its invasion
of ukraine saying it would otherwise
take russia several generations to
recover from its losses and war here are
the details
now is the time for meaningful talks
that was the message from ukrainian
president vladimir zelinsky to moscow on
saturday as he called on russia to stop
its invasion
this is the only chance for russia to
reduce harm from its mistakes he said
adding that it would otherwise take
russia several generations to recover
from the war
since president vladimir putin launched
the assault on february the 24th russian
forces have taken heavy losses and their
advance has largely stalled but they
have laid siege to cities blasting urban
areas to rubble
and in recent days have intensified
missile attacks on scattered targets in
western ukraine away from the main
battlefields in the north and east of
the country
the port city of mariopol has been hit
particularly hard
officials there say fighting has reached
the city center and heavy shelling has
prevented humanitarian aid from getting
in
in cars with smashed windows held
together by tape these evacuees managed
to escape the besieged city arriving in
zapposia
there is no marijuana this lady says
adding that she had sat in a cellar for
10 days with no water or
our electricity are destroyed bombs
landed in the yards and in every flat
the windows were blown out so we took
our parrot the dog and together with the
whole family we got in the car and drove
there were lots of people dying on the
streets dead bodies were lying on the
streets
efforts to evacuate civilians were also
underway in the eastern region of
luhansk its governor said on saturday a
regime of silence has been agreed for
march the 19th sergey gaidai said in a
message on telegram adding that a
humanitarian corridor had been opened le
chance lies in ukraine's coal-rich
non-bass region that has been partly
controlled by russia-backed separatists
since 2014.
russia's defense ministry said on
saturday it had used hypersonic missiles
to destroy a large weapons depot in
ukraine's western irvana frankfurt
region missiles had also destroyed
ukrainian military and reconnaissance
centers near the port of odessa the
interfax news agency quoted the ministry
as saying reuters was not able to
independently verify the reports
moscow calls its actions in ukraine a
special operation to demilitarize and
denazify its southern neighbour
kiev and moscow reported some progress
in talks this week towards a political
formula that would guarantee ukraine's
security while keeping it outside of
nato one of russia's main demands
though each side has accused the other
of dragging out the talks
russians have just started to see the
effect of the war is that is really
having on their economy as sanctions and
international isolation begins to bite
now from inflation to supply chain
logistics every corner of the russian
economy has started to feel the effect
here is a detailed report
every kopec counts as russians begin to
feel the effect of sanctions on their
economy
one dollar bought 75 rubles before the
war now it buys a hundred that means
higher prices for imported goods such as
the fruit and veg in this market what
can fit the island sweets used to cost
70 rubles now they cost 100 and chicken
also we don't leave a luxury life but
the prices went up notably
the price of sugar went up significantly
more than 10 rubles
i ran out of salt and sugar and i
couldn't find them now today they
appeared
my pension would be enough it is not so
little but i spend almost half of it on
medicines so very little remains
[Music]
everything is more expensive sorry fish
used to be 120 rubles now it's 480 last
time we bought buckwheat almost 200 very
expensive it's hard for us we want to
eat
russian president vladimir putin has
acknowledged that sanctions mean the
economy will need what he calls deep
structural changes they won't be easy he
said before the war in ukraine inflation
here was already over nine percent the
highest it's been in seven years that
could now double and interest rates are
at 20 percent all of this putting a real
squeeze on russian incomes
the russian association of patriotic
entrepreneurs some believe there are
opportunities to be had as western firms
pull out though first there are
practical challenges to work around
the whole supply chain has been damaged
many producers are not sending raw
materials or finished products to russia
even if they are containers aren't
leaving because of concerns about
sanctions so a big question for
processing industries is what is their
logistic chain the ruble dollar exchange
rate is also a big stress
many russians credit their president
with stabilizing the economy after the
collapse of the soviet union
it grew every year vladimir putin was in
office until the global financial crisis
a group of international banks now
expects economic output to fall by up to
a third this year
bernard smith al jazeera moscow
the united nations security council is
meant to discuss allegations that the
u.s is funding biological weapons
research in ukraine the u.s has denied
this claim here's more
russia called the meeting to present
what it described as new evidence a u.s
supported biological research laboratory
in the ukraine posed a threat to the
region
put simply the ukrainian authorities
gave the pentagon carte blanche on the
territory of ukraine to carry out
dangerous biological experiments there
this is not the noble assistance to
ukraine that the american
representatives talk about this is a
cynical use of its territory and
population for dangerous research which
washington does not carry out on its own
territory so it doesn't run the risk of
hurting its own people
the u.s denies any chemical weapons
programs exist
it is russia that has long maintained a
biological weapons program in violation
of international law
it is russia
that has a well-documented history of
using chemical weapons
the aggressor here
the united states also warned that
russia may very well be planning its own
chemical weapons attack using a false
flag allegation to justify it it was the
second time in two weeks that the
security council met on the subject at
russia's request
the un's high representative for
disarmament said they had no evidence of
chemical or biological weapons but she
also conceded that the united nations
currently has neither the mandate
nor the technical or operational
capacity to investigate this invest in
information i ask the united kingdom's
ambassador if that undermines their
argument if there is a genuine concern
the right thing to do would be to seal
off the site
have a ceasefire seal off the site and
then allow experts in to investigate
it is not the right thing to do to bring
spurious claims to the u.n security
council which are debunked by everyone
there
countries like china and brazil called
for just such an independent
investigation under the biological
weapons convention which prohibits their
use
meantime daily attacks continue to
batter ukraine many of them
indiscriminate according to the united
nations causing damage to civilian
infrastructure and mounting casualties

russia's president putin has praised the
war in ukraine as a success he appeared
before large crowds in moscow who had
gathered to celebrate eight years since
russia next premier
this was a powerful show of patriotism
in moscow russia's biggest stadium was
filled to its 81 000 capacity to
celebrate eight years since the
annexation of crimea or as it's called
here the reunification
and everywhere the zed the sign that
first appeared on russian military
vehicles in ukraine and has now become a
symbol of support for russia's war there
it was a stage set for vladimir putin
who told the crowd that the united
states is using ukraine to threaten
russia he said the soldiers fighting
their illustrated russian unity
shoulder to shoulder they help each
other support each other
and when needed they shield each other
from bullets with their bodies like
brothers
such unity we have not had for a long
time
a survey after the first week of the war
showed that what the kremlin calls its
special operation in ukraine was
supported by 58 percent of russians
there have been attempts to protest
against the war but they are quickly
often brutally suppressed
but others are finding ways to voice
their opposition such as this art group
called party of the dead protesting
somewhere in russia
we are practically living on a war
footing there's no way for it not to
affect us anymore we have to fight this
war and those who are stoking it keeping
it going and are prepared to take it to
some catastrophic finale that show of
descent won't get covered by russian
television but friday's flag waving in
moscow and other cities will though you
won't hear that ukraine says it's
fighting for its survival or that the
west dismisses accusations that it wants
to rip russia apart bernard smith al
jazeera moscow
well putin is feeling the pinch quite
literally with the american drug maker
suspending supply botox and fillers to
russia putin is rumored to have relied
on the famous anti-wrinkle treatment for
close to 10 years now cosmetic surgeons
say that putin seems to have got botox
cheek fillers and iron chin lift so what
face will put in now put forward
is vladimir putin addicted to botox
famous for his reliance on botox the
russian president is all set to really
feel the pinch
because of the war in ukraine the
american drug maker abvi which owns the
blockbuster anti-wrinkle treatment is
halting operations in russia
the biopharmaceutical company has
suspended supply of botox and fillers to
russia the most popular products in
russian aesthetic medicine
[Music]
the use of botox by putin has been
widely reported
a sydney cosmetic doctor had called out
vladimir putin for having too much
filler blasting the russian president in
a social media post
rumors that the russian president has
undergone cosmetic procedures have been
around for years with some cosmetic
surgeons believing they have been done
in a bit to improve his tough sky image
there are claims that the 69 year old
has had several cosmetic procedures over
the years including botox cheek fillers
and a chin and eye lift
rumors first began swirling that putin
has received botox when he attended a
meeting in kiev in 2011 with a black eye
botox plastic surgery or steroids the
transformation of the russian president
from a gaunt geek to a bloated brute
could be because of one or all of these
things but with botox supply being
suspended
what face will putin now put forward
bureau report india today
i know turkey has become a sanctuary for
russian anti-war dissidents turkish
airlines is one of the few foreign
carriers still flying to moscow russian
passport holders allowed visa free entry
for 60 days here's more
[Applause]
queuing to get into a charity rap
concert in istanbul's category district
hundreds of russians here united in
showing their opposition to their
country's war in ukraine and support for
the ukrainian fight to stop the invasion
most of them are young and well-educated
russians
if you write
more in your
instagram or
facebook
you can go to the
hotel yeah
others say they were arrested for
joining anti-war protests in cities back
home
not a long time before i
got arrested because i took part in some
morales and
i got fired
also in istanbul is alisa zaiseva the
russian activist left moscow two weeks
ago to cram her life into the small room
in hostel she has a russian passport but
half of her family is ukrainian like
many of her peers she was born after
russian president vladimir putin was
elected we never chose him we literally
had
woe
strikes just a couple years ago we never
voted for this
government people feel guilty
young generation that they
trying to do something but it's
impossible and it's dangerous
but living in turkey means many
challenges lie ahead the russian
anti-war newcomers need a life to settle
housing money
due to the crippling international
sanctions their credit cards don't work
most have no plan it's pretty nice and
clean and it's good enough to eva
rappaport is an anthropology researcher
who left russia nine years ago she has
been in istanbul for nearly two years
and stayed out of politics but now she
helps other russians who fled to get a
roof over their heads
i cannot go on and
do my regular daily routines when
something like so unjust and like so
uncalled for is
happening
others in self-exile fear for the future
and putin's potential revenge
when he turns back from the war he will
turn his eyes to the people that did not
support his actions
and that will be war inside
as well as russians some ukrainians also
ended up in istanbul uric is married to
a russian in kazan but felt he wasn't
safe there or in his hometown kiev
either
it's really sad that
russian people
they worry about their economy when
our people die turkey is one of the
easier destinations to escape to for
russians who are against war but even if
fighting in ukraine ends soon russians
may face 15-year prison sentence if they
return home because of their social
media pause and their opposition to the
invasion

there is no compromise on india today
international isolation aside russia is
also facing allegations of war crimes
the international criminal court in the
hague is pointing towards similar
allegations and possibly filing a
lawsuit against russia for war crimes
committed in the ongoing fight with
ukraine amnesty international which is a
human rights organization also analyzed
digital evidence including photographs
videos and satellite imagery of these
attacks in ukraine they have verified
violations of international law which
could amount to war crimes there's
horror in war loss of human lives and
guns fired with practically no rule
whatsoever but accountability exists and
so does war crimes but what are these
violations we're really talking about
isn't everything fair in love and war as
they say well not quite modern warfare
has certain laws to keep according to
international law it's usually referred
to as the law of war by the
international community
[Applause]
the laws of war regulate the conditions
for initiating war and conduct of boring
parties the laws of war define
sovereignty nationwood states and
territories occupation and other
critical terms of law it was henry dunon
the founder of the red cross who began
the process of codifying these customs
into international humanitarian laws
[Applause]
but can a war be justified really well
according to the international standards
a war is only just if it is fought for a
reason that is justified and that
carries sufficient moral weightage the
country that wishes to use military
force must demonstrate that there is
just reasons and cause to do so now as
we see in modern times wars to defend
the innocent are increasingly regarded
as just the clearest example of a just
cause is self-defense against an
aggressor for example when an enemy has
crossed your borders and invaded your
territory other justifications here
include assisting a friendly nation
which has been invaded when there is
human rights violations and to punish an
act of aggression
[Applause]
laws of war also dictate what is
considered as war crimes there are
international standards for war crimes
which are outlined in international
treaties like the geneva conventions of
1949 and the rome statute

would you share your home address if you
knew your life was in danger well that
would be usually someone's normal
response except for ukrainian president
vladimir zelinsky who did quite the
opposite have a look here as to how he's
spelling out his address despite
surviving three assassination attempts
the assassination plans were thwarted
after anti-war russians leaked intel to
ukraine and guess what this information
came from russia's federal security
service who by the looks of it does not
want blood on their hands at least now
coming back to zilenski who was behind
the assassination attempts one is a
kremlin-backed wagner group who were
behind two of the three attacks and the
others are shechen special forces
zielinski dodged this one when an
attempt was made by them on the
outskirts of kiev and if this happens
fingers will obviously be pointed at
moscow and if the assassination succeeds
ukraine will be under dismay with its
head of state gone so in case ukraine's
charismatic leader is taken out the
ukraine government has a contingency
plan in place
[Music]
although the plan was not spelt out for
obvious reasons ukrainians will ensure
that there is continuity of the
government one way or the other this
news comes after united states secretary
of state anthony blinken had said and i
quote the ukrainians have plans in place
that i'm not going to talk about or get
into any details on to make sure that
there is what we would call continuity
of government one way or the other and
let me leave it at that zilenski has
been on the front lines never been
behind any covers but his leadership
nonetheless has been instrumental in
inspiring ukrainians to fight back
although a plan is in place his
departure would surely cause panic and
demotivate ukrainians moreover there
might be russian-backed lobbying of
placing a pro-russian leader victor
yanukovych in place viktor yanukovich is
a controversial figure and former
president of ukraine who was ousted from
ukraine in 2014. he took refuge in
russia after he was found guilty of
treason by a ukrainian court the
possibilities are only endless and
moscow will leave no stone unturned to
get their demands met even if it means
to be manufactured through assassination

going across to some news just coming in
the russian defense ministry has now

belarus was used for strikes against
ukraine the ministry's website has today
published a video showing the takeoff of
an online drone with ammunition from an
airfield in hummels so it's now clear
that belarus is actively involved with
russia invading ukraine and there is
video evidence of the same the use of
the civilian airport it's a civilian
airport in belarus hamill for strikes
against ukraine it is the ministry's
website that has put out a video showing
the take off an orlan drone with
ammunition from an airfield
in hummel

russia's aggression in ukraine was met
by swift severe and crippling sanctions
from the united states the united
kingdom and the european union
[Music]
now big tech giants are joining the
fight against russian aggression by
updating their terms to do business with
the country the world's five leading
tech companies google apple meta twitter
and amazon are imposing significant
sanctions on russia
social media giants meta twitter by
dance tick talk have come under immense
pressure to curb the spread of
misinformation
metta has removed access to russia today
and sputnik on both facebook and
instagram it has also removed the option
for state media to monetize content on
any of its platforms forcing the kremlin
to ban the social media giant
tech giant google has limited the use of
google pay in russia for customers using
a sanctioned bank it has also stopped
selling online advertising in russia
besides banning russia today and sputnik
in europe
apple has suspended all product sales in
russia and has limited apple pay and
other services it has also blocked
russia today in sputnik from apple store
twitter has restricted some users from
russia twitter is also complying with
european union sanctions on russia
state-affiliated media russia today and
sputnik
youtube has banned the russian state
media outlet russia today and other
russian channels from receiving
advertisements it is said that videos
from russian creators will come up less
often in its recommendations
other tech companies taking a stern
stance on russia on netflix and amazon
netflix has temporarily stopped future
projects and acquisitions in russia
while tech companies are working
together to introduce measures to curb
russian expansionism the war has also
brought focus on cryptocurrencies the
ukrainian government has appealed on
twitter for cryptocurrency donations
ukraine's vice prime minister recently
tweeted the wallet address for donations
he also urged crypto exchanges to block
the addresses of russian users
in kiev cryptocurrencies are helping
fund ukraine's resistance against the
russian invasion but russia may use them
to mitigate the impact of crippling
economic sanctions imposed by the west
as long as you know the shop owner or
their son or their daughter
has the capability to take in
cryptocurrency payments but the breadth
of
um crypto adoption in ukraine is really
an important factor here
while the overwhelming impact of the
sanctions imposed by big tech companies
on russia will only be evident in the
coming months cryptocurrencies will
provide an alternative to both ukraine
and russia

this is one of the front line areas
where trenches have been dug up bunkers
have been set they're all prepared all
set to take on the russian forces
now they are back
the world watched the ukraine war
only on india today
over the past one month millions of
people across the country have been
watching every single minute of india
today's war dispatches from ukraine and
so joining me on the news track back
from the battlefield our war heroes i
want to welcome god of someone god of
welcome great to have you back and
you're so relieved that you're back as
is gita mohan a foreign affairs editor
video journalist pawan uh who was with
gaurav mossin who went with shweta singh
and with gita and they're back after
spending the last several weeks in the
battlefield as i said a very young very
special guest vidushi koro's daughter
who's just very happy to be right next
to her papa
uh to you first first everyone in the
newsroom mighty delighted and relieved
that you're back uh what's it like uh
coming back after a month in the
battlefield i hope you're not missing
the battlefield so i actually wanted to
be there longer you you and i had that
conversation
but uh it's good to be back it's
actually great to be back great to be
back to office to vidushi to aditi to my
parents family family here at work it's
great to be back but uh it would have
been great to be at the battlefield till
the end oh sure but none of this takes
away from our commitment to covering
this war this is just to give all our
viewers a sense of what the coverage was
like
gita you literally insisted demanded
that you be sent out to cover this war
and finally you are
and you did a fantastic job out and
about covering the war describe some of
your experiences well the biggest
challenge as we were speaking earlier
also rahul was to get your logistics
right you need if you're in a conflict
zone if you're reporting a loan you need
to get your logistics right and in that
there were no interpreters drivers had
fled home
so i had to drive my own vehicle had to
get my sources right because if you're
in the wrong hands you'll land up in the
wrong place so i had to get my sources
right built confidence so that those
were the bigger challenges once i had
that in place stories
that were to be told that should have
been told were told shwita one of your
passions is to cover the army and you
spend a lot of time with men in uniform
but it's one thing to see them practice
and the other to be in the middle of a
real war and i'll tell you they were
more jealous they they used to my all my
friends in the army used to send me
messages every single day asking me
what's the update and how is it like so
um i completely agree with gaurav that
uh i would have loved to be there sooner
uh because gita and i were trying to get
there the second visa because god flew
at a time when there was no war and we
had we knew we had to walk at a time
when there was a ward and there were air
raid sirens going all over when you had
no car no shelter just a
rucksack a backpack and you're just
walking into warzone so um i hope we did
well but i i think the the company was
the group was very confident that we
could do it
it's amazing to have such an opportunity
to go to a land you don't speak the
language in to go to a place where
there's a war going to go to a place
with actually you couldn't even carry
your bulletproofs with you and there was
no bulletproof there and so many people
have messaged or mailed or tweeted out
to say that they were actually watching
india today's coverage rather than
saying watching a cnn or bbc despite
this being an international story and
that just speaks uh volumes for the kind
of effort that our team did pawan this
was your first war experience so you
haven't covered any particular hostile
situation much more than say a riot and
here you were in the middle of a real
war
foreign
[Laughter]
[Laughter]
is one of our most talented video
journalists and he's been to different
kinds of situations covering different
stories and how was it more seen being
in the middle of a battlefield
foreign
foreign
foreign
a sense of the situation on the
battlefield because we're seeing a lot
of uh ukrainian information warfare
we're seeing psyops from russia
what really is happening on the ground
is russia genuinely making ingress are
the ukrainians actually being able to
push back
they are able to push back but how long
raul that remains a challenge but uh
when you look at the bigger picture and
we were privileged i mean uh you know we
we managed to get to kharkiv we went to
mario pole we were reporting from irepen
and bucha and bravery now since we were
driving i don't think anybody else went
out gaurav actually thought this is a
good opportunity to see a beautiful
country so from mario pole which later
got attacked to uh coming back all the
way to kiev and then finally to lavish
so you actually had a good ukraine
darshan absolutely and and driving
myself
you know so that that was the biggest
advantage if you can drive in europe uh
you know you can do anything that that
was one big advantage that we have at
times we relied on the google map like
when we were running out of mario pool
we were shot at because uh you know we
filmed something the ukrainian army or
was it a militia we do not know perhaps
they didn't like it and there we are you
got fired right that's when everyone got
really scared yeah in your vehicle who
was firing at you and why so it was
either the ukrainian army or the militia
or maybe the russians had come into that
area uh we saw a checkpoint we dodged it
uh you know rajesh was in the car with
us and rajesh was filming on his mobile
phone and suddenly you know in my rear
side view mirror i i and then you hear
it you see a gun cocked and tac-tac-tac
five rounds one after the other so
instinctively i just went zig-zag
zig-zag so that you dodged those bullets
and we were driving a beautiful suv so
this here was a lady who wanted to get
off mario pole mario paul was being
shelled she her driver didn't show up uh
she met somebody at our hotel we met the
another indian contact and that indian
contact said will you drive her car and
we said sure i didn't even know what car
it's a left-hand drive car
and we had absolutely no idea we just
said yes we will and we just dumped all
our stuff that lady dumped all her stuff
and we zipped past and the roads were
shut they had trees on the road so we
went in the kacha and then came out and
then they started firing at us we dodged
that and then we drove non-stop 350
kilometers anchoring two bulletins uh on
right while we were driving uh because
they were firing and we didn't know
whether we'd be able to get to that
place but we wanted to get the latest
back but we got to denipro safe denipro
is now under attack this is where the
fuji upbringing comes very handy yes
you're used to driving in the kacha and
you know having convoys fired at gita
give us a sense of the diplomatic state
of play because from what we can gather
in the headlines you've got ukraine and
russia apparently close to some kind of
a rapprochement is that for real
so uh the the ukrainians say that there
is no uh concept or idea of a neutral
state as of now because that would mean
absolute political suicide for zelensky
so zielinski's in a very tough position
right now
with the russians closing in on cave
and the russians wanting a regime change
will he step down or will he go in for a
compromise because the nato is not
coming european union is not going to
help them and there's going to be no
military intervention so ukrainians are
left to defend themselves and in that
they now need to decide whether if it is
worth continuing this war or negotiating
so they are negotiating but putin is
very clear you negotiate but there will
be no ceasefire uh icg ruling may be one
of them how can you negotiate when
there's war going on it has been they've
been negotiating the chief negotiator
level talks were taking place when they
attacked kiev uh the foreign
minister-level talks were taking place
when they destroyed kharkiv and mario
pole uh then they are now looking at a
president-level talk let's see if that
will come through there is a second
round of foreign minister level talks
that may have some forward movement on
this is all
talk about military and diplomacy
vidushi what in the world was going
through your head when your father was
live
his car being fired at or he's up and
you're not being able to get through to
him
i think i mainly just missed him and i
wasn't too concerned because he done
this sort of stuff before but i just
missed him and that's all
i wasn't that worried you weren't
worried oh come on you're just saying
that not that much really yeah
gaurav um
it's good to be back home with family
your wife
parents daughter i mean she's being
vicious she's also a foggy grandchild
right so she's just being brave i
promise you anybody who says that they
weren't scared i i doubt uh that would
be true being anxious
is really very very natural
okay now we don't want to get either of
them to cry that's not the idea
you had my parents were so confident
that uh
we didn't even speak for a single day
mohsin knows that i didn't speak at home
for a single day they were sure i'll
come back
okay so uh not an officer but i'm a
jco's grandchild i
he single-handedly brought me up
and i always wanted to join the army the
army doesn't have combat for women sad
how is it in ukraine did because we saw
a lot of those mps actually pick up guns
uh do you want to stamp
you've got as a rahul i'd
i always swap their names so
these women who were standing at pickets
with false eyelashes painted nails
and with an ak-47 and strong women the
other one who we interviewed gita
she
her name was aditi incidentally
the indian name she had a hindu name and
uh and a nice
yeah ukrainian name elena so she was in
the army
and trained
to fire an ak-47
at 19 age 19
and she's an instructor now for the
militia she's an instructor for the
territorial army sorry yeah so uh the
women there are lovely they are into
combat and what i loved about ukraine
because when you stay at a particular
place you tend to get an affinity with
those people uh you can be neutral as a
journalist but when you look at those
people and their uh motivation
knowing fully well that you've got a
huge army in front of you russia was a
superpower and yet you're willing to
fight you you just taking a three-day
training and you're going there and
you're saying that the russians will
have to be pushed back i love that
spirit that they want to fight and this
is amazing either because what you have
here are civilians coming together and
saying we will fight guns being
distributed and civilians who otherwise
say are mps or doctors engineers some
even cyber warriors from one of your
story picking up guns absolutely so the
determination that we saw of the
civilians coming together and there's
age no bars so we interviewed
an 18 year old kid and a senior citizen
when we were in a brovery where attacks
were taking place and we're in the
trenches there was a senior citizen
yes
this there was a senior citizen there so
there was there's no bar to age but
again rahul there's a flip side to it
now the very same people who have now
been distributed ak-47s
if things settle down you don't know who
has guns who is a part of a militia a
group or mafia and if things go wrong it
could go very wrong in a civilian strife
within the country that's that's one
major concern quite a few senior
officials having you pawan what is the
most scary part of being out in ukraine
ukraine is a beautiful country but now
ravaged by warrants how difficult is it
to shoot these pictures of death
devastation destruction
foreign
there was a time when you were stuck in
a train at night because that train was
supposed to leave for kiev and
for 14 hours with no air conditioning
you were stuck in the train so this was
in mario pole uh before we took this
vehicle out we was up we had a ticket
and we were supposed to take a train out
but they shelled the railway line or
somewhere very close to the railway line
so the trains couldn't move we've
already sitting inside the train so the
engine driver and the conductor they
switched off all lights railway station
all lights switched off train all light
switched off and thousands of people
locked inside a train you can't get out
you can't uh you don't do anything and
13 hours we were inside that train and
there was shelling that was that was
happening around in mario pole uh very
close to the railway station and
ultimately that area was targeted but we
just sat there now the moment
instinctively as a journalist you you
you know you start recording people
around said your lights they'll see
they'll start shelling and then you just
have to sit there so then you did the
next best thing you went off to sleep so
you had a good night's sleep were you
watching uh television were you
plugged in or were you in your own zone
i was watching you're watching all the
time yeah
are you scared
good good good that's amazing this is a
very i mean
i don't know how people reflect on this
but this is a very foggy thing that
you've got a member of your family out
in the battlefield and of course you're
anxious and you're concerned but you're
not scared and that is just uh truly
testament to the spirit of uh being a
faji bachchan god of just by association
and she's born in a foggy family so she
is in that sense of aji vaccha and
living up to being a faji watcher
absolutely but you know what was very
interesting rahul uh something that we
take away from this battle that one
month plus that we were there is the
spirit of the people of ukraine to fight
against all odds they're getting their
weapons they're learning to fight they
may not agree with president zilinski
but they're still fighting a large
number of zelinski popular he was at one
point of time very popular and those who
love him the nationalists they worship
him uh including some who say that even
though he there are new nazis or or the
azov battalion uh you know uh that
they're there so those elements are are
gung-ho about war but there are those
who are not gang who about war but they
too are standing up because they don't
want somebody else to make the rules how
did people in ukraine respond to
zelenski because just before the war
he'd become a bit of an unpopular person
because he seemed to be in denial and
delusion but he seems to really rally to
the moment that that is that's a very
important question rahul because this
whole rallying behind the president
started happening when putin moved
beyond donbass till the time he can find
himself to donbass which is a pro-russia
russian-origin
people kind of a area it was okay but
till then they when he moved to kharkiv
mariopol and kiev that's when the
nationalism you know of all the people
started they were more nationalistic
than anyone else and
the support for president zilenski was
not just from the people from opposition
parties now or there is no opposition in
ukraine because everybody's rallying
behind zelensky so his popularity has
grown because of the war but is it
sustainable because a lot of people now
are questioning
what were your assurances and if you did
not have assurances why were you talking
about joining nato and european union
without having those assurances and
taken an entire country to war so these
are only a few people who are asking
these questions putin having invaded
ukraine is a huge mistake because if
putin wanted ukrainians to like him and
wanted a regime change that certainly is
not happening within india we had a lot
of people with asking us about where are
they staying where are they what are
they eating how are they traveling how
safe are they give us a sense of what
life was like in ukraine
uh
pretty
okay pretty
i wouldn't say uh completely comfortable
so we had an indian family to fall back
on uh at least we were short of warm
break hot breakfast
uh soup and and you want to say big
thank you to kulibj and his family so
thank you so much if you're watching in
ukraine at this time so uh they looked
after us uh and after that uh we bought
on the field so it was a normal practice
not to have lunch and just have dinner
at night but we were very lucky to have
food very lucky to have food at a time
when uh most of the people who were
living there in kiev didn't have uh
access to
uh regular hot meals
the refugee train refugee bus
and the flight
uh
the the train was around 12 to 14 hours
then the bus journey was also almost
that time and i think uh
we didn't have any food except for
chocolate and a bar of chocolate amongst
all of us and
packer of chips amongst all of us for
two days
two days
how do you think this is likely to end
in the way that this battle is
progressing and from all that we know at
this moment
well
see the winter months were important for
putin because this is the time for him
to push europe will not push back and
that's what happened but now it's time
for negotiations because putin will
continue pushing unless and until
ukraine agrees to a few conditions
i don't think all of the conditions will
be met with but uh certainly some of
them neutrality is one of them and it's
non-negotiable not joining nato is
non-negotiable for for putin and that
certainly is an area that can be that
can be one of the reasons why this war
can come to an end uh i do not think
that uh recognizing the republics is
something that uh ukraine would agree to
at this point in time crimea maybe
they'll give give way to so yeah it is
it is going to be a long
process of negotiation before things
come true i must tell our viewers that
when our crew came back from ukraine our
chairman and editor-in-chief declared
one-week holiday he doesn't want to see
them in office so i have got her we have
no plans i can see aditya she's sitting
there she's waving saying yay i'm so
happy that you're back i hope you have
no plans for wanting to go back or we
won't be filling up requisitions please
send me back so i i take a week off
since that's an instruction and we take
this one week off uh you know i'm taking
vidushi out the moment we come back i'm
coming to you to send me back to you i
must tell you that
is sitting there she'll [ __ ] a klashnik
off and aim straight at your head and
the ukrainians will let you go but it
will kill you and we do she is sitting
next to you are you okay with him going
back again

you being away

that you are back home safe and sound
yes
foreign
foreign

wonderful team yeah there was no
competition we were just complimenting
each other and that's fantastic and as i
said uh
our eyes still very closely focused on
what's happening in ukraine our thoughts
and prayers with the people of ukraine
and we'll keep tracking our crew may be

many other contributors plus you've just

seem from the outside that you just want
to be where the action is and that's the
spirit of a true reporter which you saw
manifest itself in the fantastic
coverage that shweta gaurav geeta pawan

you are watching this special broadcast
from cave the ukraine russia war has
entered day 25
and over the next 20 minutes i'll take
you through the latest development
straight from the war zone india today
has been getting you all the images of
the havoc and devastation from day one
of the russian invasion images on your
screen show the most haunting images
from the first day of war till day 10.
the next set of visuals on your screen
capture the mass destruction
intense shelling and airstrikes from day
11 to day 18 of the russian invasion
ukraine has battled reigning missiles
non-stop bombardment and air raids
here's a look at the war wrath unleashed
on ukraine from day 19 to day 25
[Music]
it's the 25th day of russian invasion of
ukraine and putin's troops continue
their relentless attacks on key
ukrainian cities capital kiev and
kharkiv have witnessed the wrath of
russian missiles
several poor towns including mario pole
have been battered by round-the-clock
shellings several buildings have been
reduced to rubble
russian troops halt convoy of buses
traveling to evacuate residents of
mariapole
according to the buddhist city council
the convoy was heading to baradyansk
from zapruzia to pick up fleeing mario
pole residents but was stopped by
russian troops meanwhile ukraine has
refused to bow down amid russian
assaults on saturday ukrainian president
called on putin to sit for comprehensive
peace talks
the leader said that failure to find a
peaceful solution would result in
several generations of russians reeling
from the clauses of the war
negotiations about peace about security
for us about security for ukraine a
substantial fair and without delays this
is the only chance the only chance for
russia to reduce the harm from its own
mistakes
we were always insisting on the
negotiations
we were always offering dialogue
offering a solution for peace i want
everyone to hear me now especially in
moscow the time has come for a meeting
it is time to talk the time has come to
restore territorial integrity and
justice for ukraine otherwise russia's
losses will be such that it will take
you several generations to recover
with every passing day the russia
ukraine war is becoming more and more
deadly
russia has claimed that it has used
hypersonic kinzhal missiles to destroy a
large weapons depot in ukraine's western
ivanovis region moscow has never before
admitted using the high precision weapon
in the combat
the video of the missile strike was put
out by russia
the hypersonic weapon is defined as fast
low-flying and highly maneuverable
weapon designed to be too quick and
agile for traditional missile defense
systems to detect in time the kinzhal
was one of an array of new weapons
russian president vladimir putin
unveiled in his state of the nation
address in 2018. putin had termed
kinsale as an ideal weapon
the kinzhal is a nuclear-capable
air-launched ballistic missile with
several advanced qualities including
super speed that can go up to 12
350 kilometers per hour
up to two thousand kilometer target
range and can overcome air defense
systems
taliyatin is located outside the city of
ivanov franco
the region of ivano franco shares a 50
kilometer long border with nato member
romania
on march 18 kingsville missile system
armed with hypersonic aeroballistic
missiles destroyed a large ukrainian
forces underground depot which contained
missiles and aircraft ammunition in the
settlement of deliatin of
ivano-frankivec region in western
ukraine coastal missile system bastion
destroyed a radio and reconnaissance
center of the ukrainian forces in the
odessa region
the russian ukraine conflict enters its
25th day several anti-war russians
trying to escape legal repercussions for
joining unsanctioned protests back at
home are now trying to migrate to united
states while the mexico border here is a
report
on ending russian offensive
ukraine facing the brunt of putin's
attacks from ground and air
is cities ravaged
millions displaced turned refugees
ironically their fate is shared by many
russians too
[Applause]
[Music]
many russian nationals who are bitterly
opposed to war too are facing a similar
fate
playing their country to escape hounding
and legal persecution for joining
unsanctioned protests
to denounce putin's war
thousands of russians who had fled their
country are now trying to migrate to the
united states of america via the mexican
border
so it's some kind of
i don't know discrimination
we have the same problem
yeah there isn't war in my country but
in my country there is a regime
and i was escaping from that
while u.s officials have allowed in
dozens of ukrainian refugees similarly
they eludes displaced russians
absolutely unfair
we have no answers we have no react from
the administration of the
president of the united states we have
no reaction from the
cdp
officers
a few dozen russians including several
children were seen waiting in the mexico
border for several days now wrapping
themselves in thick blankets to sleep
merely several feet from the border wall
hoping u.s officials will hear their
pleas for protection
my mom original ukraine
i have many brothers sisters of ukraine
now now
yeah i
i know my
country attack but i come back russia
but so far neither mexico's migration
institute nor the u.s department of
homeland security have responded to
police by russian asylum seekers
u.s border officials have turned away
asylum seekers from countries like
nigeria colombia honduras and mexico
can rebel russians melt u.s hearts
that's the big question
your report
india today
ukrainian president vladimir zelinsky
called on saturday for comprehensive
peace talks with moscow to stop its
invasion of ukraine saying it would
otherwise take russia
several generations to recover from its
losses in the war more details in the
next report
now is the time for meaningful talks
that was the message from ukrainian
president vladimir zelinsky to moscow on
saturday as he called on russia to stop
its invasion
this is the only chance for russia to
reduce harm from its mistakes he said
adding that it would otherwise take
russia several generations to recover
from the war since president vladimir
putin launched the assault on february
the 24th russian forces have taken heavy
losses and their advance has largely
stalled but they have laid siege to
cities blasting urban areas to rubble
and in recent days have intensified
missile attacks on scattered targets in
western ukraine away from the main
battlefields in the north and east of
the country
the port city of mariopol has been hit
particularly hard
officials there say fighting has reached
the city center and heavy shelling has
prevented humanitarian aid from getting
in
in cars with smashed windows held
together by tape these evacuees managed
to escape the besieged city arriving in
zapposia
there is no mario pool this lady says
adding that she had sat in a cellar for
10 days with no water or
electricity our homes are destroyed
bombs landed in the yards and in every
flat the windows were blown out so we
took our parrot the dog and together
with the whole family we got in the car
and drove there were lots of people
dying on the streets dead bodies were
lying on the streets
efforts to evacuate civilians were also
underway in the eastern region of
luhansk its governor said on saturday a
regime of silence has been agreed for
march the 19th sergi gaidai said in a
message on telegram adding that a
humanitarian corridor had been opened le
chance lies in ukraine's coal-rich
non-bass region that has been partly
controlled by russia-backed separatists
since 2014
defense ministry said on saturday it had
used hypersonic missiles to destroy a
large weapons depot in ukraine's western
irvana frankevsk region missiles had
also destroyed ukrainian military and
reconnaissance centers near the port of
odessa the interfax news agency quoted
the ministry as saying reuters was not
able to independently verify the reports
moscow calls its actions in ukraine a
special operation to demilitarize and
denazify its southern neighbour
kiev and moscow reported some progress
in talks this week towards a political
formula that would guarantee ukraine's
security while keeping it outside of
nato one of russia's main demands
though each side has accused the other
of dragging out the talks
the united nations security council has
met to discuss allegations that the u.s
is funding biological weapons research
in ukraine the us denies the claim
here's the news report
russia called the meeting to present
what it described as new evidence a u.s
supported biological research laboratory
in the ukraine posed a threat to the
region
put simply the ukrainian authorities
gave the pentagon carte blanche on the
territory of ukraine to carry out
dangerous biological experiments there
this is not the noble assistance to
ukraine that the american
representatives talk about this is a
cynical use of its territory and
population for dangerous research which
washington does not carry out on its own
territory so it doesn't run the risk of
hurting its own people
the u.s denies any chemical weapons
programs exist
it is russia that has long maintained a
biological weapons program in violation
of international law it is russia
that has a well-documented history of
using chemical weapons
it is russia who is the aggressor here
the united states also warned that
russia may very well be planning its own
chemical weapons attack using a false
flag allegation to justify it it was the
second time in two weeks that the
security council met on the subject at
russia's request
the un's high representative for
disarmament said they had no evidence of
chemical or biological weapons but she
also conceded that the united nations
currently has neither the mandate nor
the technical or operational capacity to
investigate this invest in information i
ask the united kingdom's ambassador if
that undermines their argument if there
is a genuine concern the right thing to
do would be to seal off the site
have a ceasefire seal off the site and
then allow experts in to investigate
it is not the right thing to do to bring
spurious claims to the un security
council which are debunked by everyone
there
countries like china and brazil called
for just such an independent
investigation under the biological
weapons convention which prohibits their
use
meantime daily attacks continue to
batter ukraine many of them
indiscriminate according to the united
nations causing damage to civilian
infrastructure and mounting casualties

russia's president vladimir putin has
praised the war in ukraine as a success
he appeared before large crowds in
moscow who had gathered to celebrate
eight years since russia annexed crimea
this was a powerful show of patriotism
in moscow russia's biggest stadium was
filled to its 81 000 capacity to
celebrate eight years since the
annexation of crimea or as it's called
here the reunification
and everywhere the zed the sign that
first appeared on russian military
vehicles in ukraine and has now become a
symbol of support for russia's war there
it was a stage set for vladimir putin
who told the crowd that the united
states is using ukraine to threaten
russia
he's had the soldiers fighting their
illustrated russian unity
[Applause]
shoulder to shoulder they help each
other support each other and when needed
they shield each other from bullets with
their bodies like brothers
such unity we have not had for a long
time
a survey after the first week of the war
showed that what the kremlin calls its
special operation in ukraine was
supported by 58 of russians
there have been attempts to protest
against the war but they are quickly
often brutally suppressed
but others are finding ways to voice
their opposition such as this art group
called party of the dead protesting
somewhere in russia
we are practically living on a war
footing there's no way for it not to
affect us anymore we have to fight this
war and those who are stoking it keeping
it going and are prepared to take it to
some catastrophic finale that show of
descent won't get covered by russian
television
but friday's flag waving in moscow and
other cities will though you won't hear
that ukraine says it's fighting for its
survival or that the west dismisses
accusations that it wants to rip russia

waves is definitely here in india as
well it's a good time to remember that
the indian military happens to be one of
the largest users of soviet era and
russian weaponry and military hardware
[Music]
and that's one of the reasons why
amidst everything that's happening with
all the unpredictability between russia
and ukraine the indian ministry of
defense has held a high level meeting to
assess the possible aftermath the
possible risk to india's arsenals as a
result of this war between russia and

look at this vast list of russian origin
weaponry currently operated by india

triumph air defense missile system then
you've got a huge fleet of su-30mki
fighters then there are the mig-29 the
upgraded mig-29 fighters which are a
mainstay in the indian air force then
you've got the old mig-21 fighter jets

controversial reputation but continue to
operate in large numbers one of the
biggest aircraft operated by the indian
air force is also a russian origin the
illusion il-76 fleet and the similar
il-78 which is india's mid-air refueling
tanker fleet then you've got the il-76
falcon airborne warning and control

missiles currently used by indian air
force aircraft are of russian origin
when it comes to air-to-surface missiles
huge numbers are from russia kh-59 kh-35

if you write
more in your
instagram or facebook
you can go to the
hotel yeah
others say they were arrested for
joining anti-war protests in cities back
home
not one time before i
got arrested because i took part in some
auralis and
i got fired
oh you should be arrested
also in istanbul is alisa zaiseva the
russian activist left moscow two weeks
ago to cram her life into the small room
in hostel she has a russian passport but
half of her family is ukrainian like
many of her peers she was born after
russian president vladimir putin was
elected we never chose him we literally
had
uh
votes rights just a couple years ago we
never voted for this
government people feel guilty
young generation that they
trying to do something but it's
impossible and it's dangerous
but living in turkey means many
challenges lie ahead the russian
anti-war newcomers need a life to settle
housing money
due to the crippling international
sanctions their credit cards don't work
most have no plan
it's pretty nice and clean and it's good
enough to occur iva rappaport is an
anthropology researcher who left russia
nine years ago she has been in istanbul
for nearly two years and stayed out of
politics but now she helps other
russians who fled to get a roof over
their heads
i cannot go on and
do my regular daily routines when
something like so unjust and like so
uncalled for is
happening
others in self-exile fear for the future
and putin's potential revenge
when he turns back from the war he will
turn his eyes to the people that did not
support his actions and that will be war
inside
as well as russians some ukrainians also
ended up in istanbul
uric is married to a russian in kazan
but felt he wasn't safe there or in his
hometown kiev either
it's really sad that
russian people
they worry about their economy when uh
our people die turkey is one of the
easier destinations to escape to for
russians who are against war but even if
fighting in ukraine ends soon russians
may face 15-year prison sentence if they
return home because of their social
media pause and their opposition to the
invasion
senator solo al jazeera islam russians
have just started to see the effect of
war on their economy
as sanctions and international isolation
begin to bite
from inflation to supply chain logistics
every corner of the economy has started
to feel the effect here is a news report
every kopec counts as russians begin to
feel the effect of sanctions on their
economy
one dollar bought 75 rubles before the
war now it buys a hundred that means
higher prices for imported goods such as
the fruit and veg in this market
sweets used to cost 70 rubles now they
cost 100 and chicken also we don't leave
a luxury life but the prices went up
notably
the price of sugar went up significantly
more than 10 rubles
i ran out of salt and sugar and i
couldn't find them now today they
appeared
my pension would be enough it is not so
little but i spend almost half of it on
medicines so very little remains
[Music]
everything is more expensive sorry fish
used to be 120 rubles now it's 480. last
time we bought buckwheat almost 200 very
expensive is hard for us we want to eat
russian president vladimir putin has
acknowledged that sanctions mean the
economy will need what he calls deep
structural changes they won't be easy he
said before the war in ukraine inflation
here was already over nine percent the
highest it's been in seven years that
could now double and interest rates are
at 20 percent all of this putting a real
squeeze on russian incomes
at the russian association of patriotic
entrepreneurs some believe there are
opportunities to be had as western firms
pull out though first there are
practical challenges to work around
the whole supply chain has been damaged
many producers are not sending raw
materials or finished products to russia
even if they are containers aren't
leaving because of concerns about
sanctions so a big question for
processing industries is what is their
logistic chain the ruble dollar exchange
rate is also a big stress
many russians credit their president
with stabilizing the economy after the
collapse of the soviet union
it grew every year vladimir putin was in
office until the global financial crisis
a group of international banks now
expects economic output to fall by up to
a third this year
bernard smith al jazeera moscow a toy
version of ukrainian president vladimir
zelinsky
made by a small suburban chicago toy
company has made a big impact to the
tune of dollar 145 000
citizen brick started making unofficial
legal figurines of zelinski to raise
money for the ukrainian people after the
russian invasion started last month
here's a detailed report
a toy version of ukrainian president
vladimir zelinsky made by a small
suburban chicago toy company has made a
big impact to the tune of 145 thousand
dollars
based in naperville illinois citizen
brick started making unofficial lego
figurines of zielinski to raise money
for the ukrainian people after the
russian invasion started last month we
make a lot of these parts by hand owner
joe troopia says what started out as a
simple fundraising idea quickly
ballooned into something much bigger
having sold out the first batch of them
kind of immediately but to people we
knew kind of kind of our regular
customers we kind of thought we were
done with it and then all of a sudden
started getting
pings on the phone and we saw that it
was being
reproduced
on the ukrainian instagram page which
was kind of a shock and suddenly we were
getting a lot of
followers from instagram from the
ukraine and people messaging us and
it was kind of overwhelming
the zielinski figurines sold for 100
each while a molotov cocktail figurine
decorated with the ukrainian flag went
for 20
tripia says the funds from citizen
bricks sales will go to direct relief a
charity that claims to have sent over 30
tons of medical aid to ukraine we've had
a lot of contact with people in ukraine
which is surprising you know
that
they have the time and the kind of mind
to contact us and say thanks which is
very humbling
and that kind of we keep that in front
of our minds when we're trying to do
something like this
russia has defended its military
activity in ukraine as a special
operation aimed at demilitarizing and
denotifying its neighbor since russia
invaded ukraine the soaring melody of
ukraine's national anthem has been heard
worldwide from anti-war protests in
moscow to the stage of major concert
halls known by its opening line
ukraine's glory has not perished the
anthem is being heard daily in ukraine
too played by a local resident of mecca
live
the resident every day performs the
anthem at 12 with the exophone on his
balcony

zoo is on the outskirts of deep city in
case of a russian invasion this zoo will
suffer a lot
[Music]
i think four days ago there was a huge
fight near the zoo and there was an
attempt to occupy the military unit
tracer ammunition was flying all over
the zoo it's stressful for animals and
in the morning after we have to look if
anybody was hurt but there were no
obvious signs of injuries and no one
dead but birds were hurting themselves
while hitting on cages
when it's the world's biggest news story

hello and welcome to the special edition
of world today from ukraine
ukraine is at war with russia in the
next half hour we'll talk about the
diplomatic angle of the ukraine russia
war as also
real voices from battle zone ukraine and
the humanitarian aspect of all
the cost of a war
[Music]
joining me in this exclusive
conversation is vladimir klitschko he's
the brother of mayor of kiev vitali
klitschko
negotiations underway
talks are on but the advancement of the
russian forces continues russian
aggression continues and the
encirclement of kiev is almost
nearing a pace where they could enter
any time what's the ground situation
whatever russia is claiming
for instance
foreign minister lavrov
at the first meeting with the ukrainians
publicly said that russia is not
interested
of attacking any country
and
never attacked ukraine
that was a lie
russia is
saying that they're fighting
against nazis
we have
president of the country
with jewish roots
so it's a lie
they're trying to
say
that they're saving the russian world in
ukraine
there are
ukrainians
with russian roots
half of my blood is russian
and we are not welcoming any army
any military boots and equipment on our
soil
our
serenity and serenity of our borders
and international law has been broken by
russia
and that's why russian propaganda
is confirming and saying that ukraine is
just the beginning so
there are other countries
as well as in danger as
ukraine so we've seen that russia has
chosen its battleground as ukraine it's
not the border so what's the strategic
and military plan if any to fight russia
we will take care of ourselves
we need
military aid
and equipment to defend ourselves
ukraine is the most peaceful nation in
all the years we never attacked anyone
and we will defend ourselves
we need
military aid
we will take care of ourselves
and what our partners and allies and
this is most of the world needs to
sanction russia isolate economically
russia because every
cent
that russia is getting
are used to buy more weapons more
rockets more bullets to kill us
ukrainians
and i'm afraid to say we are not just
one nation they're gonna be
destroyed like we are now
they're gonna be our countries if this
war is not gonna be stopped
is this is this a betrayal by nato
particularly the united states of
america uh for not really intervening
militarily even
even if that means escalation while they
see and are silent spectators and
ukrainians are dying at the hands of
russians
listen there is
international law
there is nato ukraine
was not nato
nato cannot get on the ukrainian soil
there is a lot that has been broken
international law has been broken i
repeat it one more time after second
world war and after ukraine gave up
nooks nuclear weapons for serenity of
our borders we gave up nuclear weapons
for sovereignty of our borders
we did it
we signed the contract including russia
and other countries
this
law international law broke
by the attack of russian army
the ukrainian
and this
is going to have consequences and it
will happen but first and mostly
important we're not going to get into
further discussion with nate and
everything else
we need to stop we must stop this war
we
i'm saying the world
must watching what
is happening now and
actively not passively watching but
actively stopping and helping us to stop
the russian army stop the invasion and
get the heck out
of our land
what according to you sir does russia
want does it want to annex ukraine or
does it want a regime change that
president zilensky's government should
be toppled what's the end game for
president putin
russia want to go back to ussr
and make ukrainian be part of it
as belarus is
that's i guess
that's what the imperialism is doing
that's what it is
and one more time whatever
russian
listen
russia and russians there is like
different stories because the propaganda
that is going on in russia
is accusing ukraine
of being bad
nationalistic and fascists and nazis and
whatever they're saying
a complete nonsense
complete lie
it doesn't exist they thought
that ukraine will cheer up when russian
army is coming
instead of cheering up we're saying
screw you off
go home
we don't want you here
the united states of america has warned
china after intense talks not to help
moscow in its invasion of ukraine
threatening beijing of global isolation
washington dc has warned that there
could be sanctions on china if it
interferes in ukraine here's a report
u.s national security adviser jake
sullivan warned beijing that they would
absolutely face consequences if it
helped moscow evade sweeping sanctions
over the war in ukraine
sullivan's comments come as he is due to
meet with china's top diplomat yang
jeiche in rome on monday in comments to
cnn sullivan said that the united states
believed china was aware that russia was
planning some action in ukraine before
the invasion took place although beijing
may not have understood the full extent
of what was planned
now according to sullivan washington was
watching closely to see to what extent
beijing provided economic or material
support to russia and would impose
consequences if that occurred
he added quote we will not allow that to
go forward and allow there to be a
lifeline to russia from these economic
sanctions from any country anywhere in
the world
meanwhile russia said on sunday that it
was counting on china to help it
withstand the blow to its economy from
western sanctions western countries have
imposed unprecedented sanctions on
russia's corporate and financial system
since it invaded ukraine on february
24th in what it calls a special military
operation russia and china have
tightened cooperation in recent times as
both have come under strong western
pressure over human rights in a raft of
other issues beijing has not condemned
russia's attack on ukraine and does not
call it an invasion but it has urged a
negotiated solution
there has been an air raid alert here in
la vie and that's the reason why you'll
see a lot of people out in the open
they've come here
there is a bomb shelter right across in
the in the living forum and so they're
all waiting over here there's a long
queue a lot of people have gone in a lot
of people still waiting outside since
there were three
sirens uh that were that were sounded
out and uh right now a lot of people
waiting to see what's really going to
happen a lot of people have experienced
these air raid sirens i have a couple
over here who are from keefe and have
moved to la vie only to be in safety uh
but there are air raids over here as
well uh are you all here because of the
air raid siren

twenty oh no 20 minutes about 20 minutes

the quite soothing sound of the airplane
river was completely disturbed
with the russian missile attack to
destroy the bridge there was time that
this bridge was used for people to cross
over history today
and destroyed
this is my daughter jane okay this is my
friend anya

[Music]
ukrainian's indomitable spirit is
capturing hearts across the world
admirable tales of resilience look at
this ground report on how ukrainians are
not just fighting within their own
country but also their nationalism is
transcending borders
on the ground training of the civilians
here who joined up in the territorial
defense force been split into groups and
then
being taught how to enter territories
occupied by the enemy
[Music]
guys are already working as soon as
they're ready
they're finishing all the levels of the
trainings they're going on the frozen
red blog post the best of them are going
coming together and going on some
missions okay
go for missions and others are sent to
church you should
hide behind bushes
buildings whatever they can find and
move ensure that they have all eyes
around that's why you see one person
who's always who always has his back
to the team
and the the one leading
then leads them to the
two to where they have to go so they're
being trained
in how to encircle the enemy from
various places
and then
attack launch their attack
a very significant and important
training because these
very young people from
the community young old from the
community are going to be sent to
various check posts and should there be
infiltration by the russians
this is the tactic that they have to
employ to ensure that they encircle the
enemy and take them down
all the women over here are training
is is is the training difficult is it
difficult the training
no it's okay
yeah
do you train outside in the cold as well
yes
a very very specific message about how
an undetermined women's army over here
not going to give up are looking at a
win
but the difficulties in terms of uh
family members you have family back home
are they worried were they worried that
you're joining the forces
um i believe that all of us are worried
because as i said it is work and
investigation is changing
like all the time but i believe that as
i said it is better to understand how
you can defend yourself
then to stay into nothing because as i
said situation is changing quickly
together say united
uk
ukraine the old library here at the la
viv city center and today
all resources of ukraine all resources
of la viv have been mobilized people

again in terms of the morale of the
people who are posted here are they are
they how are they feeling how the
youngsters in your uh in in this entire

hot for me inside so

away not that far away we will not give
out the logistics but this is one of the
frontline areas where trenches have been
dug up uh officers over here say in a
matter of two or three days these
trenches community also coming in to
help in the digging of the of the
trenches bunkers have been set they're
all prepared all set to take on the
russian forces with vegeta journalist
said morsin in the frontline area of
ukraine gita mohan for india today
the whole crisis began with ukraine
wanting to become a part of the european
union or for that matter a member of the
nation
that still is a question that will be
answered in times to come russia has
already invaded ukraine meanwhile the
process to join european union itself is
tedious forget about me
we have the revenue here that's the
ukrainian currency it will take a long
time for this
to turn into a euro and until that
happens
ukraine has a long and a tough battle
