a renewed ration onslaught in east lou. i'm jared read. welcome to the program. we begin in france, where president emmanuel mccall has emerged as the clear winner of the 1st round of the presidential election. initial projections give him 27.4 percent and he's far right. challenger martin le pen, 24.6 percent. both contenders now go through to the 2nd round on april the 24th 10 . are the candidates from different areas of the political spectrum have now been eliminated? back wrong headed off a stronger than expected challenge from la penn who dramatically narrowed the president's lead in the opinion polls in recent weeks. and those polls taken after the 1st round voting put back on, on course to deceit le pen. in 2 weeks time, the president has appealed for support to stop the far right coming to power, no cinema. this is at this decisive moment for the future of the nation. nothing must be the same as before. so this is why i extend my hand to all those who want to work for france. it will cover you all of this. if i am ready to invent something new, get to bring together the various convictions and sensibilities in order to build with a common action in the service to our nation. for years to come. your next, your goodman. oh philip is not homeless. you only the nickelodeon, this is our duty. t w's by visa was our president mac loans headquarters in paris. she explained what he needs to do to win the 2nd round. he needs to contain, of course, in hardly had he ended his speech cheered to night. at that we received a message, said every one who wants to accompany him tomorrow on monday, on the campaign trail should gather at 8 o'clock a new morning, had party headquarters in order to go. wizard monro across to the deep mantle pot or to descend, which is not far from paris, but decidedly provincial. so obviously, his advisors have convinced him and he has himself recognized there. what he needs to do now is go out and get his hands dirty. he needs to talk to people, he needs to talk, go to the small french market towns. he needs to go to the market, places into the shops, and simply give people the idea that he is listening to them. because that was his biggest strategic mistake in the past weeks. he thought he could sort of have an election campaign without leaving the l. a. z palace being it just presidential and to be re elected for that. it's not the way it works in france. people want their president to be there and to be sort of on their side and, and to be a human being. not this sort of very alien creature that presides over the country from a, from a distance. so he will go out now and he has to gather votes as well on the relatively far left. because john mcmillan shown the old the far left firebrand. he made 3rd place, he gathered 20 percent of the vote. and also from conservatives and socialists and greens, who endorse him and he said, please give your vote to mc wrong. we have to block the far right. so he really has to write the tiger again and sort of straddled the middle of french politics in order to gather enough votes to win. the 2nd round, no, was the jumping is babbled. arvizo there. well, the far right lead, i'm up in le pen goes through to face neck hole in the 2nd round. and she says that if she selected, she will unite france. republican 1st, excuse me. the french people gave me the honor of qualifying for the 2nd round against the outgoing president. i wanted to express my most sincere gratitude to the millions of voters who trusted me, but you saw said gratitude. well, this one is due only during this 1st round, the french people have clearly wanted to arbitrate a fundamental choice between 2 opposite visions of the future. you're either to division the injustice and the disorder imposed by a man you and my call for the benefit of a few or the gathering of the french people around social justice and protection. guaranteed by a fraternal framework around the age old idea of nation, and people who defer and j. w correspondent lisa louis was at matthew la pens headquarters, and she told us that her supporters are optimistic going into the 2nd round. i talked to some people here, you said no, we're really happy about this resolved and we believe that we can win the 2nd john a now when you look at the other candidate, and the couple of them have actually expressed the outright support for moving the pen that include an exam more from the very, very far right. and at that to the kind of the candidates together we gather about 10 percent of the base and really pen support us. we'll have to do more work and gather support from other candidates. for example, supporters of my belly because from the center rights republican party, he said that people should vote in favor of my call. but obviously, marines at people. i want to convince them ages to rally that also and marine the pen is a we hoping to to find some people among space that have they do go far as wanted me longsol today in her favor in the 2nd around a voting. but when you look at all the other candidates, i didn't get through to the 2nd round of agent support team. clearly marina pan has some work to do with dw correspondence. lisa louis, they're in paris or now to the latest on the war in ukraine. russia and ukraine have agreed on humanitarian corridors to evacuate thousands of civilians. eastern areas are bracing for what they feel will be a new russian offensive. satellite imagery show a convoy of hundreds of military vehicles heading for the don boss region. and in areas around the capitol cave where russian forces have retreated more and more civilian casualties coming to light. ah, father's bought recovered a daughter's inconsolable grief. and then a 2nd body

have uncovered the bodies of hundreds of civilians and towns outside keith, where the russian army has recently retreated and the northern region churned a heave. almost all is lost. north america, both good. we have a folding bad here. this is how we survived a war roman. nothing is left of natalia teeth of us family home. the pension or now depends on humanitarian aid. to remove her but we lived here for such a long time. over 30 years, our house was bombed. all of our things, all in order for all the ukrainian lives had been lost or completely up ended. but it was given the actions of the russian soldiers and ukraine are barbaric, but they'll just barbaric rovers. still, russia has fail to take any major cities since it's invasion on the 24th of february. the west has shown solidarity by leveling unprecedented sanctions against russia and donating financial aid and weapons. but president bolo, demure zalinski, is begging allies for a total ban on russian energy products to reduce the kremlin war chest, and to save his people for more bloodshed. and earlier we asked our correspond rebecca, written in ukraine to update us about what's happening in de la hans gretchen. well, we are starting to see come to fruition what we've been expecting. the regrouping of russian troops and their pivot towards to focus on the south east of the kind of ukraine and the south and the ac, including lou hands and, and yet, can you just mentioned the hans, it's, it's prompted a more stronger effort to get people out of their hands governor has, has basically told everyone to get out while they still can i, unfortunately not everyone is hating that warning. there is still apparently 30 percent of people staying in law hands actually met a guy was reporting down in the region close near there. and i spoke to a gentleman at the train station and he, he broke down in tears as he was describing to me that some of his friends from the la hans antonietta region were actually choosing to stay that already lost everything in the battle. in 2014 and they weren't going to leave again. they said if the russians come in, they just kind of fight them. and he, he was really
