issues, another desperate call for a humanitarian corridor to allow thousands of civilians to leave the city. perkins permit us to pause. johnson faces a parliamentary investigation of a whether he lied to him. peas about corona virus lockdown parties at downing street at a wild fire burning out of control in the us state of arizona. forces thousands of people from the hopes and i'm fine. how much were the latest sport? news majesty, and i didn't name their new manager access code to any get 10 high get we'll take talk as old trust with we begin this news with the announcement of more military support for ukraine. u. s . president joe biden is promising at additional $800000000.00 package to help cave, and it's fight against russian forces. that's about the same amount in military aid that the white house pledged for ukraine last week. this package includes heavy artillery weapons, dozens of howitzers, and $144000.00 rounds of ammunition to go with those howitzers. it also includes more tactical drones. in the past 2 months, we move weapons and equipment to ukraine of record speed. however, with this latest disbursement, i'm almost exhausted the drop down authority. i have the congress authorized for ukraine in a bipartisan spending bill last month in order to sustain ukraine for the duration of this fight. next week i'm going to have to be sending to congress a supplemental budget request to keep weapons and ammunition flowing without interruption. the brave grain fighters continue to deliver economic assistance to the ukrainian people. hope and i, my hope is my expectation is congress would move and i quickly that's bringing on white house correspondent, kimberly how could live in washington dc. kimberly tell us more about what the president had to say and what exactly it is he's promising to ukraine. yeah, the u. s. president offered a pretty detailed list of what the u. s. will be providing has a lot to do with the geography of where the united states sees the fight heading in the next coming weeks. the u. s. believing that there is going to be a need for more of a land based flatter terrain. and so the equipment needed for ukraine to fight off the russian military will need to be tailored to that. so as a result, there will be in this $800000000.00 package, heavy artillery that includes $72.00, how it serves one 144000 rounds of ammunition and $121.00 goes drones. now, in addition to the security assistance package, there is also another 500000000 in humanitarian economic assistance. this is to as actually allow the ukrainian government to continue running and to keep some of the programs in place to help the ukrainian people as well. the u. s president also continuing his, the punitive actions against russia to continue to try and disable the russian war machine if you will. so the latest effort on that front is that the u. s. president has announced that now all russian affiliated ships will be banned from docking in u. s. ports. again, this is another measure the united states is taking following on the heels of western allies in order to try and really hamper the effort of the russian government to finance the ongoing russian invasion of ukraine. also today details or plan to help ukrainian shoe seeking temporary refuge in the united states were to rely on yet well, what we've learned is that the united states has an added to the numbers. it announced last month when the u. s. president was in brussels, he announced at that point that there would be up to a $100000.00 ukrainians. that would be welcome to into the united states. he today said that number hasn't changed. it's still $100000.00, which is relatively small. when you think about the fact that there are more than 5000000 people that are fleeing ukraine and the violence there. i what the president did announce though, is that this process to allow a ukrainian refugees to come to the united states has been expedited. it's been streamlined so that american citizens, for the most car part, can also apply to finance for a ukrainians to come. the united states expect that most of these will be through family links. and so as a result in there aren't really any new pathways. and that's really opened up the united states, a lot of criticism that well, it is offering military support in terms of the refugees. they could do a lot more. a white house correspondent, kimberly how could reporting live there from washington? kimberly money thanks. no rushes president for to be approved as a band on his plan to storm the steel planted body uncle with the city's last ukrainian defenders hold up. instead. moscow will continue to blockade the site. russia still expects to capture the complex for the next 3 to 4 days. i'll just to restore safari reports from moscow. this is what victory looks like for the russian military. nearly 2 months into moscow's so called special military operation. and its defense minister is now declaring his 1st major successor of the armed forces. so the russian federation and the peoples michelle daniels, people's republic heavily rated maribelle. the remnants of the formation of nationalists took refuge in industrials on of those off style plant. the as of sol plant remains the last stronghold for ukrainian troops, mario pole who have refused to surrender. officials believe there are nearly 2000 ukrainian fighters hold up in and around the steel plant. for days, russian officials had been saying they are willing to allow sporadic cease fire periods to let them surrender, or they would have to storm the plant. now, the commander in chief of russia's armed forces has other ideas, bigler group. i consider the proposed storming of the industrial area, pointless. i order to aborted. this is the case when we must think that is we must always think. but even more so in this case, about preserving the life and health of our soldiers and officers. there's no need to climb into these catacombs and crawl underground through these industrial facilities block off this industrial area so that not even a fly comes through livid drama, sheboygan dormer. i know they've captured most of mario paul a long time ago. we are very well aware of that, but there's a part of the city where our service men remain and they will stay there for now. so hopeful. this once thriving port city was home to more than 400000 people. now, fewer than $50000.00 are left unable to escape the fighting. as vladimir putin was being told a victory in mary opal russian back separatist fighters of danielle and our school was back in session for the 1st time since the invasion on february 24th. according to the done yet so people's republic, $721.00 children are going to school and marry a book under its supervision. the separatist say moscow has sent school books for these children, including textbooks on the russian language and russian history. you are out, the children are glad to be alive, to communicate with each other. they respect to elders, some of them of the teachers, their school directors, from previous schools, posters, reading for homeland, for russians, for dumbass, all in russian, covered the walls in the schools. an indication of what's likely to come as russian officials say it is now safe for residence to return home russian forces entered mary opal on march 11th. now, $42.00 days later they have claim victory. but at what cost, it's not clear if anyone will return to this ruined area to live under russian occupation, or who will be expected to rebuild a city which now lays in ruins. door safari al jazeera, moscow new satellite imagery is showing what appears to be another mass grave. this one mere ukraine's beseech city of mario poll, private us from mike saw released these images. the mass grave is around 20 kilometers from maria pole and grew in size between march. amid april, a local councilor says that russian forces were seemed transporting bodies to the site. well, as we heard a little earlier, u. s. president joe biden has also announced a new program to expedite the immigration process. view crania refugees, it'll allow americans to sponsor individuals. the move comes nearly a month after the u. s. pledge to temporarily accept a 100000 ukrainians who are fleeing the invasion. today, announcing a program you 9 for ukraine, a new program to enable ukrainians seeking refuse to come directly from europe to the united states. this new humanitarian parole program will compliment the exist the legal pathways available to crannies, including immigrant visas and refugee processes will provide an expedient channel for secure legal migration from europe to the united states for ukrainians. who have a u. s. sponsor such as a family or an n g o. this program will be fast. it will be streamlined and will ensure the united states honors and commitment to go to, to the people ukraine and need not go through our southern border. play on fresco is an immigration attorney who served as deputy assistant attorney general under president barack obama, a bama rather, he joins us now live by skype from washington. d. c. good heavy with us. so is this plan going to make it any easier? so ukrainians who want to come to the us to do so well in theory, yes, because there is bow, a dedicated plan went to out of a dedicated process for people to actually apply for a role to allow them to come to the united states. and there is sort of administrative recognition that this will be all we want that again a role. so the adjudicator though, the patient graham, those cases. but practically speaking, you still have the implement the process. you still have to put in the applications . you still have to do the cake obligation, we have no idea how long that's going to take a record backlogs in all of the current adjudications. i will just be going into that same pipeline due to gauge. i currently have billions of adjudicated obligations. and then when they're approved, you still need to then go to an embassy somewhere around the world, wherever you happen to be, and ask for the actual card to enter the united states. and so those appointments are also backlog by years. and so it will be a big question, implementation wise, whether this will make it easier out on conceptually, it should, how many people who think are going to be willing to jump through all of those hoops? it will 100000 people actually take advantage of this and try to do it. i think it's unlikely we will ever get anywhere near a $100000.00. so what we know so far is that in the last 3 months, there's been about 15000 ukrainians who presented themselves at the southern border asking for asylum. and about 3 and a half 1000 as last month. and so let's say you get more numbers from people who didn't want to come across the border. maybe you'll see another 15000 people do that. but the problem is when people can go directly to the border and make an application, they're going to be a lot less likely to wait weeks and months and months if that's how long the process is going to take. so if the, by the ministration really wants people not to go to the order, they're going to need to turn around these applications very quickly. i was going to say that going to try closing that loophole and stop allowing people to come in across the southern border. i think they're conceptually trying to steer people away from the southern border because they know that the southern border is going to be very, very busy this summer. and they're worried about the political out back lies from being very busy for all sorts of refugees. but at the end of the day, they're not going to have the moral fiber to do it. if they're not adjudicating the legal way, you know, a very quick way. so, and people are saying, what do you expect me to do? i have to go to the border, kind of, i've been waiting for mom for my up like a time. i don't see them turning people away from the border of that situation. always could talk to so many thanks, dave, for being with us again, leon fresco there in washington. as the russian offensive in the east of ukraine continues, i'll just say was charles stratford reports now from bark boat, which is in the don bass region. the great focus is on what is being reported as around a 1000 civilians. in those bunkers underneath that still works, that is still suddenly a section of it we understand controlled by ukrainian forces. those pictures released yesterday by the as off battalion, one of the fighting forces that are inside that steel plant, showing families, children sitting on beds. obviously, having been there for a long while and increasing concerns on how those civilians are going to be get out . now the eyes off themselves have released a statement saying they want a humanitarian court all to get those civilians out of that steel plant. as well as what they say is around $500.00 injured soldiers. but we also know that those fighters are refusing to surrender. and in that context, despite vladimir putin saying that basically its victory in my real pull, i think it's fair to say that it would be almost inconceivable. the fact would be conceivable for those ukrainian if i just to be able to push back until that pilot is played of ukrainian forces. he, any military analysts would tell you he doesn't have complete control over that city. so hooting needs this victory in mariel. and just to how he's going to get that victory without potentially a 1000 civilians, at least being killed, remains to be seen. the prime ministers of spain and denmark of pledged their support to ukraine on a visit to keith. the license european leaders to meet the ukrainian president in recent weeks. they also made a trip to borrowed young ker outside the capital where the bodies of 9 civilians were found of the night. spain is prime minister petro sanchez, condemned what he called the atrocities of putin's war on the streets of the town. while the fighting is concentrated on the eastern southern front lines, the full total of the war and other regions of ukraine is still unknown. i'll just hold on, i don't need report. sound from the outskirts of keith. driving out of keith, the trail of destruction is endless. this was the main road for the russian advanced towards the capital. burnt out, buildings, cars and businesses lives in tatters. this bridge in it had been came to symbolize the flight of people under shelling. alina peter hove. i was, among them, is her 1st day back and it's overwhelming. just came to see what happened to my dream. in the case then news, but very light. the most important for all of us and the crazy wife will book the wife book revival this paul at the bowling alley she owned was on the frontline work. she shows us the video of the battle field that was around it last year period. along the road, you can see where the fiercest fighting took place. this used to be a cultural center. it will take weeks before all this rubble is removed. by before the extent of what happened here is something that's still being discovered on a daily basis. more than 2 weeks after the last russian tank left, the town of burro duncan is still coming to terms with his losses. bodies hastily buried are being exempt. this woman finally found her son and his best friend believe to have been killed in the early days of the war. the 3rd body is of a teenage girl who still remains unclosing. but a danko was hid, particularly hide 80 percent of the buildings and houses in the town and surrounding villages. i eat are totally or partially damaged. finding ways to get it back on his feet is a monumental does for may or he yogi article he has set up shop in the local school because his office was also reduced to rubble. sure, the mission were to vote. we need to get the government institutions back and find new places to operate from. we have to restore electricity, gas and water. expect the hope of the respirators at which we still don't know which buildings will be demolished or repaired. many people don't want to live in the old buildings anymore. get a few streets away. valentina sifting through the remains of her house. her family had lived here for generations. they spent a month cramped in the basement, only to come out and find the memories of a lifetime gone. i sure assured that name i'm yet there for you might that need to?

's unhappy with their leader boris johnson. unhappy at the idea of being seen to block parliamentary scrutiny with local elections on the horizon. they suddenly lifted their amendment. and in fact, this labor sponsored motion, opposition back motion went through on the nor does they say in parliament unopposed, without even a vote triggering upon entry investigation. that will begin after the police investigation has concluded. there's no timeline on that possibly weeks or even months from now that we'll look into whether boris johnson deliberately misled, in other words, lied to m. p. 's. when he said in november and december last year, that no rules had been broken in terms of these parties that had taken place downing street during periods of co lockdown. now he of course, remember, has already been fined by the police as part of their investigation for attending one of these events. it was, in fact, his own birthday party in 2020, held inside the cabinet office. the name of the game for the government now seems to be total openness for boys. johnson in india says he invites this parliamentary scrutiny. he's got nothing to hide, but there is no hiding from the fact that these are significant developments for him. not just the scathing things that was said by m. p. 's in the parliamentary debate this afternoon from all sides of the house, among them, calls for his resignation. but also the simple fact that he now becomes the 1st sitting prime minister in recent times to be investigated by parliament, possibly for having lived to m p's in the house of commons. what's this investigation? go to look like you, you say could be months before it gets on the way. what sort of power does the privilege it privileges committee actually have? well, certainly months before it concludes, this is a privileges committee of 7 and piece across potty m p. 's. doesn't have an immense amount of power, it can recommend a range of senses, but then have to be voted for by parliament. it's more the symbolism of what it would mean, though it's an investigation that would get into way and set off the police investigation for this is finishes that have access to all the evidence that the police are currently using to reach their own conclusions. remember forest johnson's defense at the moment for his single fine is that he didn't believe at the time that he was breaking any rules that defense could begin to wear a little thin it as expected. he is handed up to 3 potentially 3 more fines for events still under investigation and look at that point. he would become both the 1st sitting prime minister to be sanctioned by the police for a crime he'd to a done whilst prime minister, but also potentially found to apply to m fees. the combination of those 2 things would make calls for his resignation. louder and louder and almost impossible to resist. i'll just hear us john holl reporting live there from central london. joe. nobody thanks. indeed. we're going to weather update next hill. the news out then. ah, better these

ukraine. biden says, his ear marked $800000000.00 in military age, which includes heavy artillery and drones. russia says it's captured, the strategic port city of mario paul, president vladimir putin has ordered his forces to abandon plans to storm a steel plant there at lay siege to it have stead. it's the last remaining strong hold of ukrainian resistance in the city. the mayor of merrier poll says there's an urgent need for a humanitarian corridor to rescue civilians who are hiding inside that steel plot. he says that the gross haitians are continuing with russia to allow ukrainian faces to leave with the weapons when ukrainian forces the been hold up at that sprawling complex in the strategic port city a repeatedly defying moscow's demands to surrender. so what would actually happen if mario poll falls on diplomatic editor james base reports? mario pull has been in battled besieged and bombarded the strategic port city subjected to indiscriminate attack by artillery and from the air since the war started in february. the russian assault here, likely to be one of the focuses of the international criminal court investigations into war crimes. from a very stop, this campaign has been one of extreme brutality and it's got worse over time. this is unfortunately in fairly consistent with the russian web war that we've seen in previous campaigns in syria and before that and checking in to check that was nigel gould davis is an academic, specializing in the former soviet union. he was previously the case, ambassador in ballard. so the fall of mario poll, is that going to be a game changer? it is important. it does. i think further, the russian aspiration to establish some kind of longer term control over that southern coastline of ukraine. ah, and is clearly consistent with the re forming the drawing back and redeployment of russian forces we're seeing across ukraine, which is a consequence of their, their failures further west of course, regrouping. but maria poll will be an important part of that, the basis of new campaign and western capitalist who tins war so far is seen as a major strategic failure. but people are also aware of the lessons from chechnya and from syria. if you're prepared to use the most brutal brute force, whatever the cost to civilians or even your own troops, you might prevail in the end. there is an important date on the horizon may, the 9th, his victory de, the commemoration of the defeat of the nazis in russia. in the 2nd world war, some fear president, putin will plan a new offensive. so he can turn the tide of the ukraine war before this symbolic date. in his country. james bay's al jazeera london. russia says that it's successfully tested a new intercontinental ballistic missile called summit president vladimir putin says that it will provide food for thought for those who threaten russia. so what do we know about this new intercontinental ballistic missile? it's been in development since the early 2 thousands meant to replace rushes, aging, soviet era arsenal. it weighs more than $200.00 metric tons and can carry multiple large nuclear warheads capable of hitting different targets in several locations at the same time. it has the longest striking range of around 18000 kilometers. russia says it can even fly over the north and south poles at attack anywhere in the world for breast party 8 is the chief executive officer at rasmussen, global. he says that unveiling the sama missile isn't quite the qu, that the kremlin might be making it out to be. this is part of a long series of, with recall nuclear signal coming from probably be put in since the beginning of the war in ukraine. where he's been engaging in both re 30 me and also in some kind of matters to show that he might be willing to use nuclear weapons if russia were to be threatened. however, the summit, inter continental side is actually 2 years late on delivery. so even the question is, presenting things as if it's a great moment for the strength of russia. it's actually tell your story about the delays of the correction in the russian armament procurement system. and i think the key question here is whether western allies, nato allies are going to respond to what is, again, as i mentioned yet again, a nuclear read me put in by saying that nuclear weapons and weapons of mass destruction have nothing to do in the war. and ukraine at the moment, there will be growth in that war. it will not change the nature of the conflict. and it was already say a few weeks ago at the nato summit, but i think it does not hurt, repeating it. that's the principle of need to come to tell me, is to be able to keep a target tens of thousands of kilometers away. but that's what the pentagon also said. the stay are very confident in that won't get to the days, and that's implicitly to restore some kind of stability in the strategic nuclear con, between the 2 countries. the international monetary fund is meeting to discuss the situation in ukraine, of among other things. well, count financial plans to keep critical government operations wanting al jazeera chaper tonchee is at the i m f building and washington dc. he's with us now. what's to to happened there today? shap, that meeting is just begun actually just told a few hours ago that a lot of incidents give you credit in president would be addressing this round table meeting. he's currently doing that right now. he began by talking about what he for the indiscriminate bombing by the russians, which is damage so much of his country and infrastructure and housing. however, he was also discussing the result of the ukrainian people. we knew that the ukrainian prime minister would be at this meeting. he's in dc right now. he's been having various bilaterally meetings from president biden of us treasury secretary to various finance ministers here at the i m f, spring meetings. and we do know what he's been asking, he's been asking for an extra $5000000000.00 a month and funding to keep the ukranian government open $5000000000.00 a month. and we've heard questions being asked also officials here at the i m f and the finance ministers. while doing that, it's possible we haven't been getting any answers. but at this meeting, i suppose we can expect that request to be made once again as a public section of this meeting about half an hour, and then it will go to private, private consultations. and we keep being told that this isn't a donor conference. it's more of a round table to assess ukraine's needs, but the people at this conference, all the finance ministers who have the purse strings, who can, who can donate more to ukraine. so i guess that's in those private deliberations. we'll see how realistic these demands all, but given this is the i'm after. there's one last point to make you create is about $13000000000.00 to the i m f, and a servicing bad debt inspected by $2000000.00 of depth of to the i. m f this year. so there's that question which we're also asking, which is, it's all very well, but don't have to be given to ukraine, but it will not let me just simply re coming straight back to the i m f to back to dc. it back to the hedge funds on the banks that own ukraine's debt, or will the m. f and outgoing calls here, canceled the debt a as, as, as there always are calls whenever there is warfare, whatever countries and data are subject to conflict. usually the answer is no, but given western support for ukraine, who knows, but we don't really have an answer to that. but it isn't quite as simple as it seems, given the indebtedness of ukraine to multilateral institutions. like the i m f i was 0, she had pregnancy reporting live there from the i m f in washington. she had
